In an exclusive, in-depth interview, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sat down with NY1's Errol Louis to give her assessment of Zohran Mamdani's mayoralty and where national politics stands going into this year's midterm elections.

Fab 5 Freddy is a New York City legend who emerged in the early 1980s as a defining figure in the rise of hip-hop and graffiti culture. In his new memoir, "Everybody's Fly: A Life of Art, Music, and Changing the Culture," he shares a firsthand account of helping shape a cultural movement that changed the world.

Freddy joined NY1's Errol Louis to talk about growing up in Bedford-Stuyvesant surrounded by jazz, and how early hip-hop, graffiti and the downtown punk/new wave scenes collided and cross-pollinated. He reflected on his roles in the film "Wild Style" and Blondie's "Rapture" video alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat, and explored themes of creativity, competition and cultural evolution — from the early days of street art to its global influence today. He also weighed in on Burning Man and the impact of gentrification on New York's creative ecosystems.

Jennifer Welch is the co-host of the popular political commentary podcast "I've Had It." A former reality TV star and interior decorator, Welch recently left her longtime home in Oklahoma City for New York, seeking a more multicultural and progressive environment.

Welch joined NY1's Errol Louis to discuss her move, as well as what inspired her to launch "I've Had It" and the podcast's unexpected success. She also spoke about the differences in personal freedom between red and blue states, and how her atheist upbringing and career in interior design shaped her understanding of MAGA and religious culture.

For once, veteran journalist Amy Goodman is answering the questions instead of asking them. The longtime host of the daily news program "Democracy Now!" is the subject of a riveting documentary, "Steal This Story, Please." The film goes behind the scenes with Goodman, the sharp-witted granddaughter of an Orthodox rabbi, as she navigates a media landscape reshaped by rapid technological change, corporate consolidation and mounting political pressure on the truth.

Goodman joined NY1's Errol Louis to discuss working with Oscar Award-nominated filmmakers Carl Deal and Tia Lessin to bring her story to the screen. She also emphasized the enduring importance of independent, listener-supported journalism rooted in the Pacifica Radio tradition. She argued that the media can serve as a force for peace, especially when it centers the voices of people closest to the story, rather than relying on distant pundits.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani this week will mark his 100th day since he became the mayor of New York City. At 34 years old, Mamdani is the first Muslim and the first person of South Asian descent to serve in the position.

So far, the mayor has already navigated two separate snowstorms that left major impacts on the city. The city is also facing a multibillion-dollar budget deficit.

Mamdani joined NY1's Errol Louis to talk about his time in office so far, his relationship with President Donald Trump, his thoughts on the U.S. and Israeli war with Iran and more.

Kenny Burgos and Zohran Mamdani have a lot in common. They are both former state assemblymen and both graduates of the Bronx High School of Science. As assemblymen in Albany, they became good friends and often were confused for one another. But now they find themselves on opposite sides of a major issue affecting New Yorkers, with Burgos being the CEO of the New York Apartment Association, an organization representing landlords of rent-stabilized apartments. Meanwhile, Mamdani vociferously campaigned for mayor last year on a platform of freezing New Yorkers' rents.

Burgos joined NY1's Errol Louis to talk about his relationship with the mayor, how he hopes to further his agenda despite an administration pushing for a rent freeze and why he believes a freeze would "break the system."
