What Will We Tell Our Kids? (with Chelsea Clinton)

Today, Andy and Chelsea Clinton talk about the role of the US in the world as Trump diverges from other world leaders in going it alone in the face of this global pandemic. They also discuss what their parents taught them about America and what they’re telling their own kids. Then, Andy calls author and historian Steven Johnson to put COVID-19 into a global, historical context.  Check out our sponsors for this week’s episode:  Learn about Teledoc at https://www.teladoc.com/ Visit Express VPN and get three months free at https://www.expressvpn.com/bubble Check out Ashford University here: www.ashford.edu/bubble  In the Bubble is supported in part by listeners like you.
