Bad Faith - Episode 531 Promo – Should We ‘Let Zohran Cook’? (w/ Ross Barkan & Nerdeen Kiswani)

New York Magazine columnist and longtime knower of Zohran Mamdani, Ross Barkan, returns to Bad Faith alongside first time guest, Palestinian activist and founder of Within our Lifetime Nerdeen Kiswani, to discuss recent controversies around mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani following his historical win in New York. Why did Mamdani weigh in on Chi Ossé's potential primary against Hakeem Jefferies instead of sitting it out? If the DSA is concerned about divided resources, why didhe argue that now is not the right "time" for a primary on principle, and why did he go on to endorse Jefferies as Speaker of the House? What's the logic behind keeping Jessica Tisch on board -- especially after the recent ICE activity in NYC? And is Zohran's strategy of giving statements appealing to "both sides" -- criticizing an Israeli settler recruiting event at a NY synagogue while also discouraging protests outside of it -- a successful strategy, or does it simply serve to frustrate everyone?

NPR's Book of the Day - A new book looks to the writings of Renaissance-era nuns for advice on life today

Modern life can make it tempting to return to simpler times, like a 16th-century Spanish convent. In the new book Convent Wisdom, academics Ana Garriga and Carmen Urbita look to the writings of Renaissance-era nuns for insights to apply to modern dilemmas. In today’s episode, the co-authors speak with NPR’s Ayesha Rascoe about the backstory behind the project and what makes these nuns of the past relevant today.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Panama

Panama is best known as the location of the Panama Canal, the waterway that revolutionized international sea transportation.

However, there is a lot more to the country. Its history is unlike any other nation in the Americas, and its path to independence was unusual to say the least. 

Given its location, it also has a geography unlike any other country in the world.
