New York Sees Red
2026-06-27 | 1h 1 mins.
Mamdani's candidates win big in New York. Pesticides win big at the Supreme Court. And we all win when John Stamos stops by to talk Beach Boys, Full House, and why his dad finally let him quit flipping burgers. Then Jodie-Turner Smith waxes philosophical about aliens, accents, Michael Fassbender, and a gripping defense of toe shoes, courtesy of the Egg of Truth. And don’t worry, baby: we have plenty of Second Thoughts to go around.
