"Like I still have those dreams constantly. And but with the difference between me and other people is they're real classes that I didn't show up to in college, you know, like a history of oh, gosh. Oh, no. What was the one modern, modern European politics? And it was like, you know, like Ireland's economy and just like I had to do like a like a 2000 word essay on on the Celtic Tiger economy. And I was like, I have no I've never been to any of these classes, have no idea what you're talking about. Like, let's see what Wikipedia has for me. You're right. And you're trying to write your way out of the jam. Right. Like just flowery. Nothing's changed. Still doing it. Hope the professor can't read through your bullshit. But as long as you can stay hover around a 3 .0 and mom and dad were happy. I know I know my parents understood the daily orange. That is the real education here, because we were running a student newspaper, a daily newspaper. And that's what led to, you know, us supporting our own families today. So they think they got it. We're sitting there reading like old Gary Smith Sports Illustrated articles and doing bad impressions of them in student newspapers. But then they inevitably pop up like on a in a Poli Sci paper, too, where it's just like, you know, can you hear it? They were singing in the land that day.

"Get for us. I'm very excited to have you on the show. Well, I'm hoping to get you for my podcast. So that would be a good bet for us. All right, so if you're up for it, I would love to start with your life story because you made some very interesting decisions. You were as everybody knows, like a huge star in the 90s. And then you took a break for 9 years. Actually longer. Okay, so my facts are wrong. How long was your break? Well, I think it's important to give you a tiny bit of backstory because I was a teen actor. You know, I didn't start acting until I was in junior high school, which means I had a whole life of not being raised in the industry. And I was cast in a movie called beaches when I was 12. It came out the week of my bat mitzvah when I was 13 and then I had a my own TV show, which is as crazy as it sounds, it felt crazy, like, to get my own TV show from 14 to 19. So while I did have that life, I was not raised in the industry. I wasn't raised expecting that everybody would love me and give me my own TV show. I was kind of a late bloomer as children are considered in the industry. So I left for 12 years. I did my undergraduate degree, and then my graduate degree right up next to it, and that took 12 years. I did a couple acting things in there, but most notably I had my first son in grad school, and I got pregnant with my second the week I filed my thesis. So I took my doctoral hood pregnant. Just to put a little meat on the bone there, your PhD is in neuroscience. Yeah, my undergrad as well. I did neuroscience with a minor in Hebrew and Jewish studies, and then I studied psychoneuroendocrinology was my specialty in neuroscience at UCLA as well. This 12 year period was filled with some amazing but non glamorous stuff. You know, getting a PhD in neuroscience. Oh no, there was nothing glamorous about it. Yeah, having babies, I think you also tutored Hebrew and piano and taught sex Ed to high school students. So this was like, I don't want to say regular life, but it was pretty regular for a bold faced name. Yeah, I mean, people have a lot of assumptions about what my life must have been like after blossom. You know, after being on a network sitcom, but that contract was written in 1989 when I was almost 14 years old. And girls at that time were not given the kind of clout that many people think. So I still budgeted IT aid all through grad school. It supplemented my school tuition. I had a normal. I mean, obviously very privileged and ivory tower of academia kind of experience, but yeah, I never had a nanny or a housekeeper or a chef. I took care of my kids. I actually left formal academia. I didn't do a postdoc because I wanted to be home with my kids. So I was that parent who was tutoring and my husband at the time were now divorced, but he was also in grad school. He got a master's in poli sci with a specialty in theory. So we were two grad students doing our best. When you were being a teacher's assistant, do you ever get students who freaked out that blossom was helping them with their nerves? You know, it really depended on the age of the student because if you actually do the math, it had been a minute since blossom was on by the time I got to grad school, meaning a lot of my students didn't know. That wasn't part of their kind of cultural vernacular and depending on how they grew up. They may not have watched sitcoms like that. My professors obviously more kind of knew who I was and had definitely more than one professor kind of freaked out that I was in their class. One professor brought his children, like he took them out of junior high so they could come meet me on a day of a final. That was nuts. But yeah, I basically, you know, I walked off of your television and onto this campus, you know? Most of my fellow students knew actively who I was. So you got special attention from your fellow students because they had been watching. It wasn't always positive. No, really? Of course not. No, I mean, at that time, there were other celebrities who were going to college. And I was also two years out of high school when I started, you know, I was contracted at blossom and you can't break a contract and say, I got into Harvard, I'd like to go. So I actually was, you know, I was 19 when I started in college and I was not a natural math or science student. I got interested in it when I was on blossom and my teen years, but I had to do, you know, back then, it was called affirmative action. It wasn't a dirty word. Students who were not up to par in certain subjects were given the opportunity to make up those classes. I did, you know, we called it remedial calculus and remedial chemistry. So I had to do a bit of catch up. And yeah, there was definitely that feeling of, oh, we know what you came from. Oh, you think you're going to do this now? I mean, people aren't always nice, you know? Really? People aren't always nice. No. All right, so why neuroscience? Why did that interest you so much? So when I was a teenager, if you think back to the early 90s, the discussion of nature versus nurture was kind of a little bit hot in the news and as kind of a cultural conversation, the notions of discussing homosexuality in meaningful ways. We were just kind of learning more about aids and what that meant and those were discussions that really interested me and that was kind of my first basic interest was like nature versus nurture. And it was because I was behind in chemistry and calculus that I wasn't able to declare a major in my first semester. So one of the only classes available to me until I did my remedial classes was a class called psychobiology, which was basically taught by two professors, professor Graham and professor zidel, who passed away recently, who was my mentor. And basically half the class was psychology, you know, pavlovian stuff, and the basics of Freudian psychology, things like that. But the second half was taught by doctor zidel, and it was the physiology of the neuron. And I literally, like, this is my romantic moment. I saw the action potential up on a slide, you know, back then they used overhead slides still. And I had a feeling in me. That's the level of understanding of the universe that I would like to have is the neuron. And so I studied the brain and nervous system. I had a special interest in in human behavior, but was trained in molecular and all those other kinds of neuroscience that were trained in. I'm also a vegan person, so I knew I didn't want to do research on animals. So I ended up working in the field of mental retardation in the neuropsychiatric institute, and I studied obsessive compulsive disorder in individuals with prader willi syndrome, which is a genetic syndrome. So was the source of your insta, I'm sure the source of your interest was multifaceted, but were you driven by wanting to understand the universe at the level of the neuron or was it a research is me search like you were trying to understand something about yourself? I think my initial interest was I want to be immersed in a line of study that is understanding the world the universe and the human experience at this level. But for me, and I think for many people who enjoy college, enjoy grad school, enjoy learning, I personally thrived in that environment of constantly being challenged academically constantly needing to perform and be on top of things. My father of blessed memory was an English teacher. He taught in public school system for, I mean, him and my mom have a combined 70 years in the public school system, there are New Yorkers born during World War II, so they were part of a generation of first generation American teachers. So I grew up with a love of learning, but my parents were English people. So they were into poetry and literature.

"Lori Lightfoot's resounding loss in Chicago holds lessons for Democrats everywhere by Philip Elliott. Seismic shifts in politics sometimes aren't appreciated in real time. The urgent, often overtakes the important. Deadlines to avoid government shutdowns, for instance, crowd out significant, but quiet shifts in public sentiment on topics like abortion, marriage, and immigration. As a result, headlines can sometimes catch audiences by surprise, giving them a jolt and sparking the all too common question from the Trump era, did that just happen? Well, one of those spasms manifested Tuesday night on the shores of Lake Michigan, as Chicago voters for the first time since 1989, denied an incumbent mayor reelection. Mayor Lori Lightfoot, a 60 year old former federal prosecutor who became the first black woman and the first openly gay person to lead America's third biggest city, failed to advance to an April 4th runoff after carrying each of the city's 50 wards just four years ago. While lightfoot entered election day as something of an underdog, the extent of her loss was striking. In a city known for its political leaders longevity, and the machine's ability to defend its own cogs. The hiccup showed that lightfoot had misread this fraught moment, failing to grasp that even though weary voters of deep blue Chicago will put up with persistent upticks in crime for so long. And that the realities of a pandemic and racial justice protests have clashed with the city's self image. The result, lightfoot closed out Tuesday in a distant, third place. Paul valles, a former public school chief and Brandon Johnson, a county board commissioner, will vie to replace her. Even lightfoot's biggest defenders will concede her lone term has not been without unique challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic through mayors of cities great and small for loops. Teachers unions, rightly had questions about their personal safety, as well as the wisdom and limits of virtual classrooms. The upheaval that rocked small towns and metropolises alike about policing practices and racial justice opened very necessary conversations in Chicago. Meanwhile, a vaccine mandate for those policing the city, cleaved her from the support of her city's public safety teams, and a crime wave that never seemed to go to low tide prompted lightfoot's administration to test a tactic usually reserved for fantasy novels or comic book based movies. She literally raised the bridges to quarantine parts of the city from its neighbors. Homicide rates were like those of the 1990s, but the politics were not. On top of that, lightfoot's tough negotiating style, the one that gave her credibility as a corruption busting outsider, left her with fewer allies than she realized. Several of her nominal pals on city council ended up endorsing her opponents and prompted the city's polar opposite police unions and teacher unions alike to separately decide it was time to test what Chicago looks like in a post lightfoot era. The police union backed valles, and the teachers got behind Johnson. The isolated lightfoot seemed more in danger by the day, with conservative media personalities using her as a reliable punching bag. Perhaps lightfoot's bigger power is that of reminder. It has long been taken as an article of faith that Chicago is a democratic stronghold. The place where John F. Kennedy is alleged to have stuffed ballot boxes to win The White House in 1960. Once in office, mayors there are expected to be set for long and steady ten years. Richard J Daley was an office for 21 years. His son, Richard M Daley, served for 22 years. Even rahm Emanuel, whom no one will accuse of being deferential. Powered through a 2015 reelection primary against a progressive darling without too much of a headache. Crime, however, became too much a drag on lightfoot. And she had too few friends to help her power through. Lightfoot will, of course, be fine, the days of daily style political dynasties in Chicago are probably more mythology than strategy these days, but lightfoot's legacy is one that will be debated in poli sci seminars, leadership retreats and post mortem reports for years. Her wins will be muted by her Tuesday night loss, but there will always be a well funded think tank or fundraising machine that can use lightfoot's biography and sharp elbows. Still, in 2023, with so much of the last four years still as unsettled cannon and future history books. Lightfoot may serve as a hint that just may be. We haven't yet fully appreciated the historic moment we just lived through. Retrospection and reflection are valuable, but almost always find their way to the list of things to be handled tomorrow. As politicians in Washington and elsewhere consider their own fates, they do well to consider their warnings incumbent with lightfoot. What had long been assumed to be a safe run turned perilous. And then temporary in short order, engaging in fights and winning in some cases with powerful unions is seldom a winning strategy for democratic leaders. But it proved riskier than expected, and crime, and how it is perceived may have far more power than strategists have come to respect. The public noticed, and enacted..

How you doing? Quite an intro. I'm doing well. Okay, I do it awesome. Okay. I'm good, and I'm very happy to be here with you. So before we dig into the topic, I always love folks to learn a little bit about how people found their way to what they do. So how did you find your way to being this kind of nonprofit crypto guru? Are you a crypto guy who saw the opportunity nonprofits were missing? Are you a nonprofit guy who saw the missed opportunity and filled the gap? Tell us. Yeah, it's a good question. I'm not a inherently, I guess, from background, not a nonprofit guy, or a crypto guy, which is kind of interesting. I have a poli sci degree, so I can't have school with reckless lack of direction, I would say. So I ended up in the pharmaceutical sector. I worked on Capitol Hill, didn't realize until it going into it, that it's like so much bigger of a lobbying power even than the energy or defense, like healthcare is by far the biggest. So the level of influence there and then how high powered the individuals were, it was pretty cool, but the work they were doing was working with nonprofits on the hill. So I worked in an alliance development arm. So all that matters is like any time there's a bill that's going to hurt pharma companies, bottom lines, they look to see if it's going to hurt patient access. And then they partner with those volunteer health associations like American cancers and stuff like that. So we ended up working on ultimately generating bills and sign on letters that were folks in protecting the interests of the sector, ended up leaving that area pretty quickly. The opioid crisis broke out right as I was coming out of school. So I was like, this seems so interesting and cool. And then that happens. And it was like, then they were just like tracking lawsuits and being like, let's make that go away. And I was like, this is different. The innovation thing was fun for a second. But now I get it, not necessarily good to have. That was sour leverage at that way. To me and a bunch of consultants ended up meeting. The pharmaceutical sector I ended up at a nonprofit that myself and another pharma consultant moved to. They hired him to be CEO of the lupus foundation, and then I came in as an integration director.

"Neil Dada. He is the head of economic research at renaissance macro, he joined ren Mac after spending 7 years at Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, where he was a senior economist covering North America. Prior to that, he was an analyst at barons, Neil duda, welcome to Bloomberg. Thanks for having me. Thanks for joining us. So let's start out with a little bit about your background. You graduate cum laude from NYU with a B a in economics and poli sci, what was your first job in the economics and finance space? I was actually thinking about being a lawyer. So I ended up taking my LSAT, my senior year at NYU, and I did okay, but I didn't do well enough to go to a school that I really wanted to go to. And so at that point, I was kind of scrambling and I was like, I need to get into the financial industry because I'm in New York. I have a passion for finance. But it was kind of late. So a lot of the investment banking analysts have already lined up their gigs. So I ended up getting a job at Merrill Lynch. As a compensation analyst and human resources. Really? Yes. So I did that. I started that in 2005 after I graduated. But one of the good things about being an HR Barry is you kind of know where all the jobs in the organization are. So fast forward about a year and a job it opened up as an economic research analyst in someone's someone you may know. David Rosenberg, of course. So that was actually my first foray into economics. And the rest is history. So let's talk a little bit about what you did at Merrill Lynch. We worked with Rosie, which I'm sure you have lots of stories from that. What was your role there? What sort of research and writing did you do? Well, so when I started as an analyst under Rosie, I was basically a junior economist. I mean, a lot of, I mean, one of the great things about Rosie. I mean, it was just, he is, I think, one of the best examples of what a Wall Street economist should be. We had this weekly piece called the market economist, right? And that I think is very important because he was a market economist. He wasn't a PhD, and he didn't think like one either. And what I think he understood and what he kind of ingrained in me very early on is that this is really fundamentally if you're a sell side research economist you are in the client service business. And that's what Rosie was really great at. I mean, he was always on the road. I mean, gosh, I don't even remember. I don't even remember when I saw him. Because he was always on the road, particularly in O 7 and O 8, when it was sort of with Rosie, it was kind of wrong, wrong, and then spectacularly right, right? And so when he became spectacularly right, you know, he was on the road constantly. And so one of the things I would do for him was just kind of feed him ideas, feed him charts that kind of reinforced his his thesis that he could then go and present to clients while he was on the road. So a lot of it was sort of getting in the weeds on charts and data. But that's what I would do for him. And then, you know, as I got better at that, he kind of gave me a little bit more freedom in terms of allowing me to write. And obviously, if you work in a Belgian bracket like that, you're obviously writing under the lead analyst, right? So my name would go on the reports, but they would be under his, of course. And he gave me a little bit more freedom as time went on and I would end up writing his morning note, which was the widely read, you know, Rosie. Tidbits. Remember? Now it's breakfast with Dave. Back then, it used to be called Rosie's morning tidbits. And I think that was a play on 'cause you know Rosie was Canadian is Canadian. And was and still is. And in my career, I feel like the Canadian they produce a large number of economists. I mean, it's kind of right. I mean, comedians and economists, why is that? I have no idea, but I think the tidbits was a play on Tim bits, right? Tim Hortons, it's sort of their version of Dunkin Donuts, I guess. And so he gave me some freedom in writing that for him. So Rosie actually ends up going back home to Toronto. And so now you're at Merrill without him writing hurt on you. What was it like when you had a little more latitude to go where you wanted? Well, it was actually an interesting time because when Rosie left, things were starting to turn around a little. And I remember I wrote a piece basically, I think in June 2009, basically saying that the recession was over. And at the time it was a controversial call. But that was when we didn't even have a head of economics. Because there was a bit of a sort of murky, let's say 6 to 9 month period where Rosie had left and it had been and then Ethan Harris had yet to come in. Right. So we kind of had a lot of freedom in terms of what we wanted to do. And so I wrote that piece. It got a lot of attention, I think. But yeah, I mean, it was a good call. And I think it was interesting to say the least, because here you had Rosie, who was a noted market bear at the time. He never would have put his name on that piece. Right. And so in some respects, I was able to. And I mean, we used a lot of the same framework that he was looking at a lot of the same indicators in terms of Rosie would talk a lot about leading indicators, the ECR I index, and a lot of them had been turning around. So we had basically said, look, things are getting better, and it's sort of reinforced the upturn in markets. So and speaking of markets, how often is down 57%, not a pretty decent entry point for equities. Oh, sure. Well, I mean, one of my buddies, Sam roe, who you probably. Oh, sure. TK or is this subset? And I know you guys know each other. Sam's work is great also. Yeah, I mean,

I started that in 2005 after I graduated. But one of the good things about being an HR Barry is you kind of know where all the jobs in the organization are. So fast forward about a year and a job it opened up as an economic research analyst in someone's someone you may know. David Rosenberg. Of course. So that was actually my first foray into economics. And the rest is history. So let's talk a little bit about what you did at Merrill Lynch. You worked with Rosie, which I'm sure you've lots of stories from that. What was your role there? What sort of research and writing did you do? Well, so when I started as an analyst under Rosie, I was basically a junior economist. I mean, one of the great things about Rosie. I mean, you know, it was just, he is, I think, one of the best examples of what a Wall Street economist should be. We had this weekly piece called the market economist, right? And that I think is very important because he was a market economist. He wasn't a PhD, and he didn't think like one either. And what I think he understood and what he kind of ingrained in me very early on is that this is really fundamentally if you're a sell side research economist you are in the client service business. And that's what Rosie was really great at. I mean, he was always on the road. I mean, gosh, I don't even remember. I don't even remember when I saw him. Because he was always on the road, particularly in O 7 and O 8, when it was sort of with Rosie, it was kind of wrong, wrong, and then spectacularly right, right? And so when he became spectacularly right, you know, he was on the road constantly. And so one of the things I would do for him was just kind of feed him ideas, feed him charts that kind of reinforced his his thesis that he could then go and present to clients while he was on the road. So a lot of it was sort of getting in the weeds on charts and data. But that's what I would do for him. And then as I got better at that, he kind of gave me a little bit more freedom in terms of allowing me to write. And obviously, if you work in a Belgian bracket like that, you're obviously writing under the lead of analysts, right? So my name would go on the reports, but they would be under his, of course. And he gave me a little bit more freedom as time went on and I would end up writing his morning note, which was the

The bill requires the federal government to develop a plan to increase oil production in order to draw from the reserve, the bill which passed largely along party lines is squarely aimed at President Biden's handling of spiking gas prices last year.

Our report on Friday showed that inflation is continuing to cool raising hopes for a smaller increase that's a little less painful. But there are a lot of analysts who say inflation isn't out of the way yet, including former US Treasury secretary Larry summers. I don't think this is a time to be taking possibilities of ray heights off the table. At the same time, I don't think it's a time to be committing to rate hikes, given the indications of softness that we have seen from a number of quarters.

Prior to that, he was an analyst at barons, Neil duda, welcome to Bloomberg. Thanks for having me. Thanks for joining us. So let's start out with a little bit about your background. You graduate cum laude from NYU with a B a in economics and poli sci, what was your first job in the economics and finance space? I was actually thinking about being a lawyer, so I ended up taking my LSAT, my senior year at NYU, and I did okay, but I didn't do well enough to go to a school that I really wanted to go to. And so at that point, I was kind of scrambling, and I was like, I need to get into the financial industry, because I'm in New York. I have a passion for finance. But it was kind of late.

"That now we didn't have to know everything about everything. Right. And now we do. So after high school, you go to college at UCLA. And earned a degree in political science. Yeah, why did that happen? Why did that happen? I don't know. Are you interested in politics? I think I saw the movie Wall Street and I thought that that Gordon gecko. Yeah, I figured that's what I should do. I did not like it, but I had everything kind of mapped out and was going to get my poli sci degree and go to law school. So I think it was my second year in college. I took some sort of graduate level like pre law class. It was part of the honors program. And I literally got in there. I had no idea what we were doing. They were doing a moot court. I think I freaked out and didn't go to the class. I think I sobbed in front of the professor and somehow got out of it with the sea and left. And I'm like, this is not for me. And I knew that in this, I'm not cut out for this. And it was probably the wrong class to throw a 19 year old in. Or maybe some 19 year olds, but not for me. But I stayed with it because I was so far into the major because I did business and honors and poli sci. So I just stayed with it. And it was an interesting degree, but I should have been a communications major. Like hands down, I have no idea why, and it's my own fault for not digging into the possibilities, but I just have to say, it's my own responsibility to have created a support system for me, but I just didn't have people around me to guide me. And I wish that I would have taken more advantage of that. I feel like as a parent, I'm more connected with what is available for my kids than my parents ever were. But that's still my responsibility. I should have figured it out. But I think that's different too, maybe it's not for everybody, but I was completely on my own. I mean, I went to college to be a band director and then the only reason I went into got my degree in PR, but the only reason was because I had a friend whose sister was in PR. And I'm like, that sounds fun. Yeah. That was my whole process. Yeah. I think there's more, maybe. I don't know. I think that there may be a little more guidance and a little more maybe more resources for young people. But I'm not entirely sure okay. Worked out fine. And I loved school. So where did you do after graduation? Oh, so I graduated and I'm smiling because, boy, I ended up as an account executive at the second alternative rock station in the U.S. so at the time it was 91 X in San Diego and anyone that knows what that whole scene was like there was Cara K rock in Los Angeles and then 91 X was the second one. In fact, their logo, if anyone is familiar with 91 X and there may be some listeners, it's the same logo that they had. They haven't changed it. And it's basically, I just, it was really fun. It was a complete transition into what, you know, alternative music was. So what was alternative rock in this time period in the 80s? You're talking about. Wow. So it would have been like the cure and Depeche Mode. And the facts and I mean, just any of that. Yeah, I mean, it basically was what was on MTV. And so it was just a different type of experience. And it was also the 80s and there were just, it was a little wild. But it was great training and we had a lot of fun. And that's ultimately where I met. My husband. Okay. We'll come back to him in a second. Yeah. Were you selling time were you an account executive or what was your role count executive? And I basically started with no account list and strike commission. So you're going door to door? We made phone calls. Made phone calls, and it was extremely intimidating. I was 22. Right out of school. And the majority of the aes are counting executives were men in probably the early late 20s or early 30s, but you know, when you're a 22 year old, those are grown people, right? And of course, they are like kind of obnoxious and they look at me and be like everything. Would you sell today, you know? And I was just terrified. And you're in this room with a bunch of cubicles and everyone can hear you. And somehow I didn't fail. But I learned a lot. I learned a lot about sales that I learned about being kind of fearless in a very, very tough. And often very inappropriate. Environment. By inappropriate, I mean some sexism going on. Oh, absolutely. And things like go to Mexico because I'd be calling on some of the nightclubs. Go to Mexico, go pick up a $1000 and bring that back over the border. Those kind of things, or yeah. Yeah, I see your face. Those are things that I was expecting. Yeah. Those are things that you did. You got to call on the nightclubs, and then you had to go basically pick up the cash. So they just things that wouldn't happen today. Interesting. It was just, you know, this was not the radio station I worked at, but there was a station in San Diego, where when the women made a sale, they would go stand on a table and they would take a bell and hold it between their knees and ring it. Now the male account executives did not have to do that, but the women did. And somebody actually called them on it and there was a lawsuit. And that was what I remember being like the beginning of the change toward. This is what we do at work on this is what we don't do at work. There weren't a lot of rules back in the day. The 80s were different. The ideas were different. Yeah. Yeah, so you met your husband doing radio. I did. So I want to hear that story. Oh, so we met at a Jason Jennings sales seminar, Jason Jennings was a sales trainer. Okay. And I do remember meeting him. He had just been hired and I remember meeting him and he was doing that he was an account executive in the county executive also, and I remember we were friends for a long time, but I do remember sitting in the back of various workshops and seminars and probably not paying attention and writing notes or I don't know what we did. How did you end up in Tallahassee? So we were one of the mom and pop owner operators and we, if anyone remembers the old WMO radio station, mellow one O 5 melanoma 5. So we bought that and we actually flipped it to a hot AC, which was live one O 5 and ran that for several years. And then sold it to, I guess, I don't know who the I think it's been sold several times, but it's the hot one of four 9 property rights. Okay, so let's stop there for a second. You know, being an AE at a radio station is different than owning a radio station. So how did you all end up owning your own radio station? That would be a much better question for my husband than for me. Okay. But he that was always something that he had wanted to do. And again, this was many years ago. I'm going to say it was 25 years ago when you still could actually. Somebody could do that. Somebody could do that. And so but that was pretty cool. It was pretty cool. It was a different Tallahassee, 25 years ago, and

"Primaries in two large and trend setting states in the United States as we head to the midterm elections at Baxter with global news in the 9 60 news from Ed. Yeah, that's right, Brian, and there may be some trends here nationally too. Bloomberg's joining us, Jeannie Professor of poli sci iona college, Bloomberg contributor and an author of American democracy in crisis, always so good to talk to you, Judy. We are getting some movements now as a matter of fact, aha head up on the Bloomberg terminal CNN and NBC calling for Jerry Nadler in the enabling maloney race. This is an extraordinary circumstance. It really was so good to talk to you, Ed, you know, it's not unusual in these redistricting years to see members facing off against each other, but in this case, you had two members who have been in office since 1992, they were freshmen, Carolyn maloney, and Jerry Nadler, and they are both committee chairs, and they are sort of beloved members of the democratic coalition, and they faced off against each other because of redistricting, so Jerry Nadler, who represents the upper west side of Manhattan, maloney, the upper east side, and as you mentioned, it looks like Jerry Nadler, who got the endorsement of The New York Times, got the endorsement of Chuck Schumer and many other people. He has handily beat it looks like Carolyn maloney at least by the numbers we're seeing now with looks to be about 75% reporting he's up upwards of 56% to her 25%, so a big win for Jerry Nadler and a big loss for Democrats. Okay, now we're also getting a hothead. Well, these are just, these are just one networks. So let me go back and focus on the so we need a two confirmation or a Bloomberg confirmation. District ten New York. This will give us some direction on what Democrats may be thinking regarding party tilt or am I just off base? No, you're right. So this is a really interesting race. There's a few of them, so New York ten, we have a number of really interesting candidates running on the democratic side. You have Dan Goldman, who many people remember he was the lead prosecutor for Trump's impeachment regarding the Ukraine issue. He's also heir to the Levi Strauss fortune. He put about $4 million into this race. He's setting off against many other candidates, but one in particular of note mondaire Jones, who's a representative who decided to run in New York ten after the head of the democratic congressional campaign committee, Sean Patrick maloney, decided to move into his district and run there, so you had mondaire Jones Dan Goldman and a number of other New Yorkers setting off against each other. I don't see a result in that. It's still a little bit early. To say who's going to win there, but a number of interesting candidates one we should also mention is new. She's a very interesting member of the New York State assembly, who is very popular in New York as well. So that's going to be a tight race. And hygiene, we need to quickly check on Florida, the Democrats have really firmed things up there. Yeah, they have, and it looks like we now see governor desantis has an opponent. Charlie Crist, the former Republican who became independent and is now a Democrat, he was running against freed Nikki freed the state agricultural commissioner. She was the only statewide elected Democrat, they had a really raucous sort of last few weeks here. She really hit him on abortion. Many of his stances when he was a Republican in office, of course he served as governor of Florida many years ago. But he has at least as far as we see now with 99% reporting, has beat her pretty handily, many Democrats seem to be trying to find somebody they think can go against desantis and hold this tight, and they've decided that Chris is the one, and of course that's going to be much watched because desantis looks in addition to Trump like a likely 2024 presidential nominee or candidate at least on the Republican side. All right, Genie, so good to talk with you. I just want to mention real briefly that Val demings has won the democratic nomination for Senate. So that will be a demings Rubio contest which should be real interesting. Thank you very much. Jeannie sanzeno. Bloomberg contributor author of American democracy in crisis.

So chill out and if you want to give us your ten favorite female artists, we can work with that. But we're not going to do serious. So I had a sour taste in my mouth than that. And honestly, the debut Amanda marcotte and Jessica valenti were both picked up by steel press, which is a very famous well respected feminist publishing house. And their debut of their books online was extremely poorly handled. And they got run through the ringer. And I don't know that they would talk about that.

And that's one thing, as a cohort of people, we were not professional writers, right? So things like, you know, the authors don't always write the headlines. That's news. Most people, or the author doesn't pick the cover. You might get to say thumbs down on the cover and they do it anyway. You know what I mean? You don't always have power as to how your stuff's marketed and presented. And what you do have is limited. And I think in hindsight, as a 40 something looking back, I think that is a group of people we were awfully harsh on them as debut writers, even though what was being criticized was totally fair and correct. I kind of want to expand on that because I have another question about that. So I'll be straightforward. On the schedule because he's agreed to come on as Mickey cows. And if you go back and find all the stuff that I wrote about Mickey cows back in the day and I'm 100% sure that he 100% deserved all of it. Right. And I was worse. And I would go on if I'm not, I think you would talk to me too. Yeah. No, and I think he would, right? But. To some extent, even though I think much of it was deserved, I regret the tone that I took.
