Episode Details

Original tape date: May 8, 2025. First aired: May 9, 2025.

Times correspondents Clyde McGrady and Robin Pogrebin discuss how the Trump administration's policies are affecting museums and cultural institutions across America. They explore the administration's attempts to redefine "proper ideology" in federally funded institutions, particularly those focused on African American history. Then, Dean Chang, deputy metro editor for politics at The New York Times, leads the team behind "Sprint for City Hall," a special series covering New York's Democratic mayoral primary on June 24th. With Eric Adams running as an independent, this race has become unusually competitive, with nearly a dozen candidates vying for the nomination.
