New York City has always drawn residents from all over the world and it didn't end because of the pandemic. The NYT magazine recently dedicated an entire issue to those who recently arrived.

The House committee investigating the January 6th insurrection will start holding hearings tonight. Karen Greenberg, the director of the Center on National Security at Fordham University School of Law, discusses what to expect.
For the latest installment of our ongoing Full Bio series, we speak with Amy Odell, author of a new biography about Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, called, Anna: The Biography. On day four, we look at Anna Wintour's depiction in popular culture, specifically the film, "The Devil Wears Prada," as well as her relationship with former employee André Leon Talley and her philanthropy and work with the Met Gala.
Recently, Sheryl Sandberg announced that she would be stepping down as COO of Meta, formerly known as Facebook. Sandberg made a name for herself as one of few high profile C-suite women, and encouraged a generation of women to follow in her footsteps with her book Lean In. But the legacy of Lean In is complicated, as more women have begun to question who that methodology leaves out... and wonder why the focus should be on changing their behavior, rather than attempting to change systems of sexism within the workplace. Vanessa Fuhrmans, deputy bureau chief of the careers and workplace section of The Wall Street Journal, joins us to discuss her piece "Sheryl Sandberg’s Legacy of Leaning In" and take calls from listeners about what Lean In means to them.
