Andy sits down with Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, who is cautiously optimistic that a vaccine for children under 5 will get approved by June and a variant-specific vaccine that better protects against Omicron will be approved in the fall. Albert stresses the seriousness of Long COVID, comparing its severity to cardiovascular diseases. And Andy traces a throughline between the harrowing journey of Albert’s parents, who narrowly escaped the Holocaust, and the CEO’s own journey racing the clock to create a vaccine to save lives.

Our Next COVID Vaccines (with Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla)

The team at Lemonada Media is excited to introduce Worth It, a new series created in partnership with the Minnesota Star Tribune. There’s a reason compasses point north — the North Star State is full of surprises, and hosts Nicole Norfleet and Aaron Brown are here to help you find them. Each week, they cut through the noise to spotlight hidden gems, can’t-miss events, local eats, and the places that might not be worth your time. Whether it’s farm camp or gourmet cotton candy, a must-see concert or a skip-it venue — they’ll help you decide what’s truly worth it.

 

In this episode, they uncover the best spots for dirty soda, unpack U.S.-Canada tensions spilling into a Grand Marais bike race, and dig into the hype behind a couple of $10 cereal brands. Plus, a St. Cloud amphitheater that might just be your new summer go-to.

Listen Now: Worth It 

With Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshears in the national spotlight as a potential candidate for Kamala Harris's vice president, we wanted to revisit this conversation from 2021 with Andy Slavitt.

As vaccine distribution continues to ramp up around the country, Andy calls up Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear to understand how it’s all working on the ground in a state like Kentucky. Listeners have a chance to get “in the bubble” with Andy and Governor Beshear to hear their candid conversation about leading through this challenging moment, as well as how best to support communities as we work together to end the pandemic. Dr. Lisa is joined by Cara McNulty of Aetna and CVSHealth to talk tactics for reaching people in communities for their health care needs.

Relisten Now: Here Come the Vaccines Again! (with Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear)

With Gov. Tim Walz in the national spotlight as a potential candidate for Kamala Harris's vice president, we wanted to revisit this conversation from 2023 with Andy Slavitt.

As fringe Republicans drive the agenda in Congress, Andy turns to the hope found in many states through newly elected and reelected governors. Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz joins to discuss how he was able to bridge the rural-urban divide, first representing a district that voted for Trump and then winning statewide election in a purple state. Can we govern our country, states, and localities in ways that resist extreme elements and get things done? Tim offers his path forward.

Keep up with Andy on Twitter and Post @ASlavitt.
