🎙️ The Andy Beshear Podcast
Real people. Real conversations. Real connection.
Hosted by Andy Beshear, this independent and professionally produced weekly show goes far beyond politics. Each episode features open, unscripted conversations with fascinating guests from all walks of life—leaders, educators, innovators, creators, and everyday people with extraordinary stories to tell.
This isn’t a political podcast—it’s a human one.
 We talk about what’s really going on in the world: family, faith, current events, pop culture, hope, hardship, and the things that connect us. In a time when the news cycle is heavy and the world feels divided, this podcast offers something different—a space to listen, learn, grow, and laugh together.
