U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy

The Doctor is in! This week, Surgeon General of the United States Dr. Vivek Murthy joins the podcast for a healthy dose of Kasich & Klepper. In this episode, America’s Doctor answers questions about the continuing COVID health crisis including the need for continued response funding, COVID best practices, and the future of the pandemic. He also talks about the epidemic of loneliness and isolation among Americans, the youth mental health crisis, and how connection can help serve as an antidote to those problems. Jordan then takes the opportunity for a not-so-routine personal check-up.

Om Podcasten

They come from two different sides of the political spectrum: John Kasich, former Governor of Ohio and 2016 Republican presidential candidate; and Jordan Klepper, a liberal comedian best known for his viral videos interviewing MAGA supporters for The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. In this weekly talk show podcast, the pair will come together to scream their differing political opinions at each other for an hour… just kidding. Sure, there will be some political debate, but Kasich & Klepper’s discussions will more often explore the common ground of their shared interests. They’ll dive into conversations about parenting, leadership, pop culture, mental health, and more — all with a good sense of humor and a whole lot of jokes at each other’s expense. Along the way, Kasich & Klepper will be joined by high-profile guests from all walks of life — musicians, athletes, activists, politicians, and much more — each of whom will share their unique perspectives on modern life’s biggest questions. Together, Kasich & Klepper will have thoughtful, engaging, and downright hilarious conversations to demonstrate the power of mutual understanding in a polarized world.
