This week, in what might be the funniest episode yet, Molly and Emese are joined by co-stars Amy Schumer and Brianne Howey. They get candid about motherhood, career evolution, and their new film, Kinda Pregnant —which unexpectedly led to Amy’s latest health discovery. Amy opens up about how public criticism led her to uncover her Cushing syndrome diagnosis, what it’s like to navigate comedy and Hollywood as a mom, and the importance of sharing birth stories without shame. Brianne shares how becoming a mother has shifted her perspective on work, how Ginny & Georgia ’s Georgia Miller compares to real-life parenting, and the power of female friendships in the industry. We also go behind the scenes of their new Netflix film, Kinda Pregnant —how Molly first got the script, why Amy and Brianne were drawn to the project, and what it means for women today. Plus, they reflect on their early career struggles, the moment they knew they “made it,” and how motherhood has reshaped their ambitions. From career highs to personal challenges, this episode is raw, funny, and packed with insights.

1 NYC Comptroller Brad Lander meets with Governor Kathy Hochul as she considers whether to remove Mayor Adams from office
Mayor Eric Adams’ administration is engulfed in chaos. Critics say the Justice Department moved to drop corruption charges against Adams in exchange for cooperation with President Trump’s immigration enforcement. That prompted four deputy mayors to resign. Now, prominent Democrats are considering whether – and how – to remove Adams. One of the people at the center of those talks is Comptroller Brad Lander. He’s also running against Adams in the Democratic primary. He talked with WNYC's Sean Carlson more about it.…
New York City will mark a key milestone this year: The transit system hired its first Black train conductor 90 years ago, shattering a barrier that has since offered tens of thousands of African Americans and other people of color a pathway to the middle class. Jotham T. Coleman, whom researchers have little information about, was hired as a conductor by the Independent Subway System on Oct. 15, 1935, when the city agency first opened motorman and conductor positions to Black New Yorkers, according to Polly Desjarlais, a content manager at the New York Transit Museum. The move came as the Board of Transportation, a bygone agency that ran the city’s publicly owned subway system at the time, began to expand its workforce, according to Desjarlais. “It was the Depression, and having civil service rules was more equitable,” Desjarlais said. “Suddenly jobs were opened up that were formerly closed to African Americans.” Prior to Coleman’s hiring, the city’s public and private transportation systems relegated Black employees to jobs as cleaners and porters, who earned lower wages than conductors and motormen — the people who drive trains. “In the 1930s, transit workers were poorly paid,” said Joshua Freeman, a labor historian and retired professor at the CUNY School of Labor. “It was a notoriously badly paid industry and Black workers in it were paid the worst. But once you get to unionization, you begin a path towards benefits and salary increases that really blossoms after World War II.” Within a decade of Coleman’s unprecedented appointment, the number of Black conductors on the subways skyrocketed. Board of Transportation records show the number of Black conductors employed by the agency grew from 63 in 1939 to 405 in 1944. Today, roughly 40% of the MTA’s 70,000 workers are Black, including several of the agency’s highest-ranking employees. Last year, Demetrius Crichlow became NYC Transit's first Black president, overseeing the agency’s subway and bus operations.…
What makes a restaurant fun? For some, it might be a giant singing mechanical rodent and a roomful of video games. For others, it could be a quiet space as far removed from video screens and screaming youngsters as possible. So obviously, it's a different answer for everybody. Our friends at Eater New York just released a list of places they consider the most fun restaurants in New York City. Eater New York Editor, Emma Orlow joins Weekend Edition host David Furst to talk about a few of their choices.…
The Justice Department filed a motion Friday asking a judge to dismiss federal corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The request caps off a week of legal drama between the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan and DOJ officials in Washington D.C. The Justice Department directed prosecutors in New York City to toss the charges against Adams, saying the case impeded the mayor's ability to help the Trump administration carry out immigration enforcement. The lead prosecutor resigned in protest, and several others followed. Adams says he's innocent and wants to move forward. A judge still has to sign off on the request. Political strategist, Columbia University professor and MSNBC contributor Basil Smikle joins Weekend Edition host David Furst to discuss how this week's news will shape the mayor's race.…

1 Mayor Adams plans to allow ICE agents on Rikers Island, former City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito weighs in
Mayor Adams says he’s preparing an executive order to allow federal immigration officers to operate on Rikers Island, where they have essentially been banned for the last decade. Adams made the announcement after meeting with President Donald Trump’s “border czar” Tom Homan. Former City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito, who helped pass the city’s sanctuary laws during former Mayor Bill de Blasio’s first term, talked with WNYC's Sean Carlson about ICE's return to Rikers.…
Privacy advocates raise concerns about the MTA's student OMNY cards, and a baby is born on a subway train. That and more in this week's On The Way roundup of NYC transit news.
New Yorkers can be innovative when it comes to making use of their tiny backyards. Some install swimming pools, raise chickens, build tree houses and even tend Manhattan’s only wine vineyard . But a hockey rink in a 12-by-18 foot patch of Western Queens? That may be a new one.
A letter from the Department of Justice told federal prosecutors to drop Mayor Eric Adams’ corruption case on Monday, arguing he needs space to focus on supporting Trump’s immigration agenda. “Either he comes to the table or we go around him,” said Trump's border czar Tom Homan. Raising the stakes for Adams is the fact that the DOJ’s letter issued no judgment on the merits of the mayor’s case. Trump can hold the threat of prosecution over Adams if he doesn’t play ball, not only on immigration, but also on any number of issues facing the president’s hometown.…
Community boards in New York City are one way for people to dip their toes into local government. In Brooklyn and the Bronx, the deadline to apply is just around the corner. Applications to join the boards in those two boroughs close on Valentine's Day. Mike Racioppo — district manager for Community Board 6 in Brooklyn, which covers Park Slope, Gowanus, Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Red Hook, and the Columbia Street Waterfront — joined WNYC's Michael Hill to talk about how community boards help craft local policy from the ground up.…

After losing to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2024 World Series and losing slugger Juan Soto to the New York Mets, the Yankees are hoping to bounce back this season. Dave Sims is the radio play-by-play commentator for the New York Yankees and host of the Hey Now! podcast. He joined WNYC host Janae Pierre to preview the coming season, which officially begins in March.…
The Justice Department’s move to dismiss Mayor Adams’s federal corruption charges isn’t necessarily the end of the road for the Mayor’s legal troubles. Daniel Richman is a former federal prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York and currently the Paul J. Kellner Professor of law at Columbia Law School. He talked with WNYC's Sean Carlson about what’s supposed to happen next.…
New York is a Democratic city, and the makeup of the City Council reflects that. Of the Council's 51 seats, just 5 are currently held by Republicans. But the Republicans in the City Council have a new leader: Joann Ariola. Her district includes the Rockaways, parts of Southern Queens and her home neighborhood of Howard Beach. She talked with WNYC's Sean Carlson more about her new role.…
New York Governor Kathy Hochul and New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy both want schools in their respective states to ban cellphones in classrooms. This comes after former President Biden’s Surgeon General advocated warning labels to alert young people of the dangers social media poses to their mental health. Schools across the country, including California, have already begun implementing cell phone bans in their classrooms. Jayden Stuckey, a senior at Central High School in New Jersey's largest city, Newark, Newark Public Schools superintendent Roger Leon, and Dr. Stephanie Marcello, the chief psychologist at Rutgers University Behavioral Healthcare, talked with WNYC's Sean Carlson more about cellphone use in schools.…
