    Listen Now: Worth It 

    The team at Lemonada Media is excited to introduce Worth It, a new series created in partnership with the Minnesota Star Tribune. There’s a reason compasses point north — the North Star State is full of surprises, and hosts Nicole Norfleet and Aaron Brown are here to help you find them. Each week, they cut through the noise to spotlight hidden gems, can’t-miss events, local eats, and the places that might not be worth your time. Whether it’s farm camp or gourmet cotton candy, a must-see concert or a skip-it venue — they’ll help you decide what’s truly worth it.   In this episode, they uncover the best spots for dirty soda, unpack U.S.-Canada tensions spilling into a Grand Marais bike race, and dig into the hype behind a couple of $10 cereal brands. Plus, a St. Cloud amphitheater that might just be your new summer go-to.   Follow Worth It wherever you get your podcasts, or listen here: https://lemonada.lnk.to/WorthItStarTribunefd See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Listen Again: Crossing the Rural-Urban Divide (with Governor Tim Walz)

    With Gov. Tim Walz in the national spotlight as a potential candidate for Kamala Harris's vice president, we wanted to revisit this conversation from 2023 with Andy Slavitt. As fringe Republicans drive the agenda in Congress, Andy turns to the hope found in many states through newly elected and reelected governors. Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Walz joins to discuss how he was able to bridge the rural-urban divide, first representing a district that voted for Trump and then winning statewide election in a purple state. Can we govern our country, states, and localities in ways that resist extreme elements and get things done? Tim offers his path forward. Keep up with Andy on Twitter and Post @ASlavitt.
