115: The Premonition with Michael Lewis & Dr. Charity Dean

Host Reed Galen is joined by New York Times bestselling author Michael Lewis and the Co-Founder and CEO of Public Health Company Dr. Charity Dean to discuss where our nation is with COVID-19 two years after the first lockdown and about one year after Lewis wrote his latest book, The Premonition. They also examine how systems break down, in health systems and otherwise, and ask the question as to why the pandemic hasn’t been enough to unite our country and how our country hasn’t been truly united by a common cause in quite some time. Be sure to pick up The Premonition at your favorite book retailer.
