All Of It with Alison Stewart | Aug 10, 2021

With the announcement that New York City will require proof of vaccination to enter restaurants and gyms, and with the Delta variant on the rise, many vaccinated individuals are left wondering why so many eligible Americans are still refusing the vaccine. What can be said or done to convince them? Washington Post reporter Derek Hawkins joins us to discuss his piece “How to talk to vaccine-hesitant friends and family about getting the shot” and take calls from listeners.

Brigid Bergin, senior political correspondent for WNYC and Gothamist, joins to give updates on the resignation of Governor Andrew Cuomo.

Laura Marling and Mike Lindsay recently released Animal, the second album from their psychedelic, electronic, and pop-leaning side project, LUMP. The duo joins us for a Listening Party.
