- Listen to the whole show

The Politics of Citizenship

Have you become a citizen in the last five years? Has it changed your political views? Tell us how.

Same Jen Time, Same Jen Channel

Jen Chung, editor of Gothamist.com, answers your questions about what's going on around Gotham each week in July.

Single Issue Politics

Is there a political disparity between married and single women? Married and single listeners call in to tell us how they vote, and if it has changed since they exchanged marriage vows.

There are so many free events in the New York area this summer, but they come at a cost: standing in line. We take your calls on what's worth waiting in line for and what's not, as well as your stories about what you did while you waited.
