Pablo Torre Finds Out finds Mamdani

I believe I mentioned a few weeks ago that Pablo Torre won a Pulitzer for the investigative reporting in his podcast Pablo Torre Finds Out.

Almost no one does sports journalism anymore, but he does, and he's terrific when he does it. What he's also great at, though, is being goofy. Somehow he switches back and forth seamlessly between the two.

He interviewed NYC mayor Zohran Mamdani this week for his podcast, and the entire segment is so funny and genuine. Mamdani is one of the most engaging politicians I've ever heard, and he so clearly embraces life in a way that other politicians (most of whom always seem entirely miserable) just don't.

Anyway, it will put a smile on your face, and it's only about 25 minutes long. Here's a YouTube link, but you can stream it on all major platforms (Spotify, Amazon Music, etc.): Zohran Mamdani Talks Knicks, Arsenal & What We Think of Tottenham.
