This is the New Yorker Radio Hour, a co-production of WNYC Studios and The New Yorker. Welcome to the New Yorker Radio Hour. I'm David Remnick. It has to cross your mind. I'm 33 years old.
I'm running 20 points ahead. The guy that's right behind me has the likability factor of a traffic jam. It's very likely that you're going to be the next mayor of the city. with a $115 billion budget, a president that calls you a communist half the time and he's threatening the city in many different ways. When you go home at night and you're thinking about this emotionally, and people are questioning your experience as well, naturally, simply on the basis of age, when you're staring at the ceiling at three o'clock in the morning, as you must do.
Well, you know, I have to be honest with you, I don't have trouble sleeping. at all. I don't. Because you're walking across the city half the day. I'm quite tired when I get to bed.
