Today we're joined by our friend Peter Lucas, a Brooklyn-based journalist, avid Sacramento enthusiast, and former staffer for Zohran Mamdani's successful 2020 run for the New York state assembly--long before NYC's mayor-elect became a household name.
We discuss Mamdani's surreal visit to the White House--where he positively charmed the pants off President Donald Trump--reflect on Zohran as a person, and explore what his win means for the greater Left movement in the United States.
We also rank the best Subway Takes episode among Peter, Zohran, and former Vice President Kamala Harris's appearances (spoiler: Peter wins).
