Lost Debate - Historic NYC Upset

Ravi is joined by Bradley Tusk to break down one of the wildest political upsets in recent memory: Zohran Mamdani’s decisive win in the New York City mayoral primary. They unpack how it happened, why Cuomo flamed out so badly, and what Mamdani needs to do next if he wants to govern the city.

From campaign strategy to trash collection, rent freezes to charter schools, Ravi and Bradley dive into what kind of mayor Mamdani might be and what it will take to make the leap from activist to executive. They also discuss how current Mayor Eric Adams will fare running as an independent in the general, if Cuomo may try to jump back in, and what the national Democratic establishment is getting wrong in their rush to draw lessons from this race.

Newshour - NATO meets for ‘consequential’ summit

NATO leaders have been meeting in the Netherlands at a time when President Trump's 'America First' policies have strained the transatlantic alliance. We listen to some of President Trump's comments and ask what they might mean for the defence of Europe. Also in the programme: our Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet reports from the Iranian capital, Tehran; and an interview with British rock legend Sir Rod Stewart, who will be playing at the Glastonbury Festival this month.

Time To Say Goodbye - What Happened to the Anti-War Right with Sohrab Ahmari

Hello!

Today, we welcome a guest from across the aisle to talk about what might be happening with the anti-war, anti-interventionist right in the face of Trump’s strikes against Iran. Sohrab Ahmari is the American editor of Unherd and the author of two books and one of the main intellectual forces shaping the ideas of a new right wing. A really great conversation with some interesting insights into what might be happening within Trump’s inner and less-than-inner circles and how influence might be peddled in the White House.

Enjoy!
