1:23Now PlayingHunter Biden has been all over the internet in recent months, including appearances with some of his harshest critics, such as ultra-conservative podcasters Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes. In May, he reactivated his long-dormant X account, writing, “You've never actually heard from me.” Since then, he’s posted an average of 23 times per day — weighing in on politics, news and culture. After his private life and struggle with addiction was made public through leaks in the media, congressional investigations and federal prosecutions, Biden says he has nothing left to hide.
NPR’s Scott Simon talked to Biden about his journey to recovery, President Joe Biden’s pardon of him after tax and gun convictions, and why he didn’t want his father to run for reelection in 2024 – but didn’t tell him at the time.
You can find Biden’s full interview on NPR’s Newsmakers podcast on YouTube and Spotify.
