On today's show:
- Jessica Grose, opinion writer at The New York Times and the author of Screaming on The Inside: The Unsustainability of American Motherhood (Mariner Books, 2022), offers analysis of young men's relationship with feminism, and how that is related to their voting patterns.
- New York City's composting program, which is already operational in Brooklyn and Queens, is expanding to Manhattan, Staten Island and the Bronx. Hilary Howard, New York Times reporter covering how the New York City region is adapting to climate change and other environmental challenges, breaks down how residents and landlords can get on board, what's compostable and when the program will start being enforced.
- In honor of WNYC's centennial, Brian quizzes listeners on topics covered in the centennial series "100 Years of 100 Things." Today's quiz focuses on Republican presidential candidates.
- Jonathan Alter, MSNBC analyst, author of the Substack newsletter Old Goats, and the book American Reckoning: Inside Trump’s Trial―and My Own (BenBella Books, 2024), reflects on the felony trial of Donald Trump as one of the few journalists in the courtroom and as a presidential historian.
- In this membership-drive mini-series, Tommy Silk, a licensed New York sightseeing guide, @LandmarksofNY on Instagram, and the author of Hidden Landmarks of New York: A Tour of the City's Most Overlooked Buildings (Black Dog & Leventhal, 2024), joins us to talk about some of the lesser-known historically significant buildings of NYC. Today, we hear about some of private homes all around the city, landmarked for their significance or the accomplishments of people who lived there.
