Episode Details

Twenty-five years after 9/11, Dave Rubin sits down with Carol Markowitz and John Cardillo to revisit the attacks, the leadership that followed, and the political changes reshaping New York City.

They also debate current-events issues around immigration, radical Islam, sanctuary-city policy, free speech, and political polarization in NYC and Europe.
