Send us a text

On today’s brand-new episode, Governor Andy Beshear sits down with Kevin Nolan, President & CEO of GE Appliances, for a powerful conversation about some of Kentucky’s biggest economic development news of the year and how we can make sure more things are made in the USA – plus some much-needed laundry tips from a real expert! 🧺

We hope it's a breath of fresh air. From job creation to community impact, this episode dives deep into how GE Appliances is investing in the American people, building a strong culture, and collaborating on our shared future. Kevin talks his 40+ patents, GE Appliances’ commitment to workforce development, and what this big announcement means for reshoring jobs in America. He debunks factory job myths and shares a little inspiration to potential future engineers. We also get a peek into Kevin’s personal life, including his surprising hobby as a clockmaker and his bell-bottom regrets!

Stick around for some headline highlights with Andy, John and a very special guest, Gerina D. Whethers, for a fresh and important perspective on:

- Trump and Putin’s unexpected Alaska meeting
- Redistricting fights in Texas and beyond
- Fake Kentuckian JD Vance, kayaking, and a curious river level mystery
- DOGE cuts and the future of the National Weather Service

🎧 Don’t miss In My Kentucky Accent, where Andy follows podcast rule #4 and shares his why: his faith. The Golden Rule says we should treat our neighbors as we would want to be treated and the Parable of the Good Samaritan says that everyone is our neighbor. It’s that simple. Let’s do the right thing for our neighbors – all of them. As Andy’s minister said last Sunday, “As People of faith, none of us can walk through the world thinking we’ve done enough.”

This is an episode about progress, partnership, and possibility. Our approach is a conversation with friends, for friends. We hope this episode makes your busy week just a little lighter.

👉 And stay tuned, because we’ve got a very, very exciting announcement coming soon…
