It doesn’t get much NYC granular than with this crew. Love this show and the added value the guests bring. They leave no stones unturned. Salty, spicy, funny never disappoints.
I always look forward to listening, especially Christina’s spicy takes, lol. I like hearing each host’s point of view, even if I don’t always agree with the things they say. I’m convinced they come from a good place and try to keep integrity.
I am so happy that this podcast exists!
No honeymoon here for Mamdani, not like the one given to Adams. The hosts seem to have a barely contained contempt for the new mayor, but this is common among political journalists in the city. Hell, it’s common among most political journalists in the country to detest and stigmatize left-wing politicians. I’m not Mamdani’s biggest fan, but their bias is obvious and annoying. I listen 2x speed.
