Andy Slavitt, President Biden’s White House Senior Advisor for the Covid response and President Obama’s head of Medicare and Medicaid, joins Sam to breakdown the current world of healthcare and discuss the life-changing decision to call the White House and offer to help fix the ACA website. They talk about why powerful people are so compelling and how it makes making decisions even harder and how to even know who in the room should be making the decision, and being willing to listen to good ideas from the other side. Plus they talk about why it’s important to be nice to Siri, the difference between being entitled or honored to have a big job, and Sam gives an overdue apology for making fun of the ACA roll out while at The Daily Show.
