A Look at COVID from Conservative America (with Hugh Hewitt)

Andy and conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, who is very much pro-vaccine and anti-federal vaccine mandate, merge echo chambers and discuss where conservatives are at this moment with the pandemic. They get into reasons why an estimated 40% of conservative adults aren't vaccinated, what works and what doesn't when it comes to persuading unvaccinated people, and have an in-depth exchange about mandates. This is an increasingly rare but badly needed conversation, one that is spirited and civil between people who disagree. Plus, Ryan Panchadsaram joins Andy at the beginning of the show to weigh in on the Glasgow Climate Pact.   Keep up with Andy on Twitter @ASlavitt and Instagram @andyslavitt.    Follow Hugh @hughhewitt on Twitter.   Joining Lemonada Premium is a great way to support our show and get bonus content.
