Tim discusses the NYC mayoral race between Andrew Cuomo, socialist Zohran Mamdani, and Governor Hochul (Governor Meatball), then plays and reacts to Cuomo's bodega-set campaign ad.
- Tim on Andrew Cuomo vs. Zohran Mamdani: despite canceling his show, he'd still pick Cuomo over the socialist candidate pushing government-run grocery stores.
- Mamdani has good qualities—he's young and anti-semitic—but Tim worries about his fiscal policy and says he'd move to Florida if taxes go up 2%.
- Cuomo's harassment allegations are dismissed by Tim as less important than the political race itself.
- Cuomo's bodega campaign ad plays: a street-level performance where he interacts with New Yorkers about bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches.
- The ad identifies Mamdani as the competing candidate and features Cuomo asking a man for his shirt in a confrontational bit.
- Tim praises the campaign ad for focusing on street-level personality rather than policy issues.
