Supreme New York - a podcast by Sam Rippon and Chern Han Mah

This week's episode focusses on some recent developments in the United States, assessing the closing cases of the 2020-21 Supreme Court session and discussing Eric Adams’ victory in the New York City Democratic Primary. The new Conservative supermajority on the Supreme Court finished the latest session with some rulings on voting rights, non-profit donors and a third look at the Affordable Care Act, but did they flex their new majority as frequently as we would expect? Is the Roberts Court still as incrementalist as it was prior to the newest Trump appointees? What cases are there to look ahead to in the 2021-22 term?

A few weeks on from the results of the New York City primary finally getting published, Sam and Chern take a look at how Eric Adams managed to win this hotly contested race. Why did Andrew Yang fare so badly after starting with the highest name recognition and energy? Why is the position of New York City Mayor so significant? Do the Republicans have any chance of winning the office in November? All these questions, and more, answered in this week's podcast.
