We spent Tuesday&rsquo;s episode talking about headline national and global news, and it felt pretty bleak. Today, we&rsquo;re zooming in on a bright spot, New York City, and asking what we can learn from Mayor Zohran Mamdani as he crosses the first-100-days milestone. Mamdani was hailed as a unique political talent on the campaign trail. We&rsquo;re interested in how that star power translates to political power and how the Mayor has pivoted from campaign to service. His initial path tells a compelling story about what Democratic Socialism might mean in practice and where the dividing lines actually are in the Democratic Party. Any way around it, Mayor Mamdani&rsquo;s &ldquo;pothole politics&rdquo; are a stark and welcome contrast to what we see in Washington D.C. Outside of politics, we consider the call for parents to hold hands and agree that we&rsquo;ll all do less together. From Maycember sprawl to spirit week standards to the charcuterization of everything, we sort out what we&rsquo;re doing and why. -Beth Topics Discussed: <ul> <li> Zohran Mamdani&rsquo;s 100 Days: Pothole Politics and What Democratic Socialism Looks Like in Practice </li> <li> The Affordability + Corruption + Service Formula &mdash; A Democratic Blueprint? </li> <li> Navigating the Coalition: Mamdani, Trump, Hochul, and the Art of Getting Things Done </li> <li> Outside of Politics: Maycember and the Case for Parents to Just&hellip; Stop </li> </ul> Ready to go deeper?
