Vox Media announced a new podcast Monday with acclaimed journalist and Business Insider co-founder Henry Blodget.
The weekly show, called “Solutions with Henry Blodget,” will tackle some of the most pressing challenges of modern life – from AI risk and climate change to burnout and the loneliness epidemic – with an emphasis on practical, achievable solutions.
It will launch Aug. 18.
“We’re in a moment where every day, it feels like we’re facing a deluge of insurmountable challenges. What often gets lost in the conversation is just how many smart, enterprising people there are out there working to solve every one of them,” said Blodget in a statement. “With Solutions, I hope to bring audiences a show that centers some of these experts and offers a thoughtful and pragmatic path forward. And it’s been a thrill working with Vox Media’s amazing podcast team to get this off the ground.”
Blodget is the founder and editor of Regenerator, a publication focused on building a better future, and the co-founder and former CEO and editor-in-chief of Business Insider, which under his leadership grew into one of the most influential news organizations in the world and was acquired by Axel Springer.
He is also a former top-ranked Wall Street analyst, frequent media commentator, and the author of “The Wall Street Self-Defense Manual: A Consumer’s Guide to Intelligent Investing.” He will soon publish his first novel.
