  • Introducing: Don’t Listen To Us with Mandy Patinkin and Kathryn Grody

    We’re so excited to share a new show from Lemonada Media, Don’t Listen To Us, an advice show for advice-skeptics and wisdom-lovers, hosted by Mandy Patinkin, Kathryn Grody, and their son Gideon. 

    Legendary actor Mandy (The Princess Bride, Homeland, Criminal Minds) is the consummate entertainer who shoots from the hip, stage actress Kathryn is the thoughtful connector who sees all the nuance, and Gideon is the brave soul keeping them on track (or at least trying). Together, Mandy and Kathryn have 40+ years of marriage, 140+ years of life experience, and a series of viral social media posts where Gideon interviews them and watches both chaos and wisdom ensue.

    They don’t always agree on what advice to give—in fact, they rarely do. But they draw from their highs and lows as artists, parents, lovers, and humans, to give their unique take on real dilemmas submitted by you -- the listeners. Hang out with this family and you’ll walk away with insights you didn’t expect, stories you’ll want to repeat, and comfort knowing that you’re not alone in figuring out how to survive this fakakta world.

    You’re about to hear a clip from the first episode from Don’t Listen To us. After you listen, head to: https://lemonada.lnk.to/DontListenToUsfd to hear the full episode and follow the show wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Listen Now: Alive with Steve Burns

    There are a thousand podcasts you can listen to. This one listens back. And this week, we’re here to tell you about it. 


    Alive with Steve Burns continues the conversation you began all those years ago. Back then it was letters and numbers and graham crackers. Now it’s death, sex, taxes, and all the big, messy questions of being alive. Why does money stress us out? Is the American dream dead? What’s the future of truth? 

     

    Each week, a new guest drops by Steve’s window for a genuine and respectful dialogue between two people just trying to figure it out, together. Funny, tender, and just a little weird, this show invites you to sit down and think with Steve once again and wonder… what it really means to be alive.


    You’re about to hear a clip from the first episode, where Steve sits down with hospice nurse Julie McFadden to talk about death. To hear more of Alive with Steve Burns, head to: https://lemonada.lnk.to/AlivewithSteveBurnsfd

  • Listen Now: Uncared For is Back!

    In a country that feels more divided than ever, there’s one thing almost everyone agrees on: our healthcare system is broken. From crushing medical debt to rural hospital closures, deep Medicaid cuts, and the growing burden of insurance denials, too many Americans are falling through the cracks.

    In Uncared For, award-winning journalist SuChin Pak (Add to Cart, MTV News) investigates the personal and political forces behind our fractured system. This season, the show zooms out to examine the healthcare system as a whole. Through deeply personal stories and expert insight, Uncared For uncovers why so many people feel, quite literally, uncared for — and what it would take to build something better.

    After you listen to this preview, search for Uncared For in your podcast app to hear the rest of the series, or head to https://lemonada.lnk.to/UncaredForSeason3fd

    Good Things from Lemonada Media is a podcast about the good people in the world who are rolling up their sleeves and working hard to make things better. Each week, we'll be talking about this country's most complex and confounding issues in an effort to affect systemic change, with a rotating cast of incredible guests and Lemonada hosts.

In response, the Marguerite Casey Foundation is making a bold move: they’re distributing $130 million this year to organizations working for racial and economic justice. In this episode, Carmen Rojas, the foundation’s president and CEO, gets into the reasons behind the move, which organizations will benefit and how this funding aims to fill critical gaps.

    This episode is presented by the Marguerite Casey Foundation.
