🚨 Big announcement time! 🚨 The Andy Beshear Podcast has officially joined the SiriusXM family — and we couldn’t be more excited!
This means millions more Americans can join in as we turn down the temperature, bring people together, and have some honest, real conversations about the challenges we all face.
Then we dive right into a powerhouse interview with New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham (aka “MLG”) — a governor, former congresswoman, health secretary, local official, and all-around political force. From getting trolled in her first congressional race, to fixing broken infrastructure with bipartisan teamwork, to delivering universal Pre-K, child care, and free college — MLG shares how smart, bold leadership can make a real difference. Plus, she doesn’t hold back on Congress, tariffs, healthcare, or the chaos in Washington.
After that, Andy is joined by “the Jo(h)ns” — John McConnell and John Rabinowitz — to break down the week’s biggest news: tariff rulings that could hit everything from coffee to burgers, turmoil at the CDC, and all the latest current events. Plus, a little college football.
And to wrap it all up, Will Beshear returns with a fresh round of Gen Z lingo — including how to know when something is “gas” (hint: in this case, it’s a good thing 😉).
This episode has everything: big news, smart takes, behind-the-scenes political stories, some laughs, and a whole lot of heart for this country we all call home. We’re here to listen, learn, laugh, and lead — together.
