On today's show:

  • Christina Greer, associate professor of political science at Fordham University, host of the podcast FAQNYC and the author of Black Ethnics (Oxford University Press, 2013), offers political analysis of voters who say they are "double haters," meaning they're not fans of either President Biden or Donald Trump. Plus, callers in this camp explain why they're feeling this way, and how it'll affect their vote.
  • First time callers of The Brian Lehrer Show call in to share what's on their minds from the news this week -- including elections in the U.S. and around the world, Pride Month, D-Day and much more. 
  • Tracie McMillan, journalist, former managing editor of City Limits and the author of The White Bonus: Five Families and the Cash Value of Racism in America (McMillan, 2024), traces the financial impact of historical benefits not afforded Black Americans on her own family and that of four others.
  • Katie Honan, senior reporter at The City where she "anchors" the Summer & The City newsletter and co-host of FAQ NYC, offers some guidance for making the most of summer in NYC.

Transcripts are posted to each segment as they become available.
