OK I finally finished listening to Zohran Mamdani's appearance on Odd Lots. 

I thought he did well. I wish he had engaged with the Joe Weisenthal's questions about why non-white working class voters seem to recoil most at left-wing policies that high-educated whites embrace. 

Overall, though, I felt the interview was a little softball. 

Given how much more likely he is to secure the nomination, I wish Andrew Cuomo would go on a show like this!

Definitely. I find the framing quite compelling, and I don't think leftist politicians are confronted with that argument enough.
