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.
