On today's show:
- Susan Glasser, staff writer for The New Yorker and CNN global affairs analyst, and Peter Baker, chief White House correspondent for The New York Times and a political analyst for MSNBC, talk about their new book, The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021 (Doubleday, 2022), a detailed account of the four years of the Trump presidency. Plus, they offer analysis of current national news.
- Michael Anestis, associate professor at the Rutgers School of Public Health and the executive director of the New Jersey Gun Violence Research Center, talks about the recently released report that looked into who owns firearms in New Jersey, how many they own, and why they say they own a gun.
- Earlier this week Gov. Hochul announced a plan to put cameras in every single subway car, citing people's fear of crime on the trains as a reason. Stephen Nessen, transportation reporter for the WNYC Newsroom, talks about the civil liberties concerns this has raised, how much crime is actually happening in the system and whether experts think cameras would help. Plus, Donna Lieberman, executive director for the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), shares her organization's privacy concerns with the plan for cameras in subway cars.
- With the playoffs approaching, it's a good year to be a New York baseball fan. Deesha Thosar, MLB writer for Fox Sports who covers the Mets and Yankees, previews what fall baseball will look like for the Mets and Yanks, plus talks about Aaron Judge's home run-filled season and previews rule changes that are going into effect next season.
