Anthony Scaramucci on the Downfall of New York City + AOC Addresses Yearbook Photo Scandal
In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, financier and former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci joins Adam to talk politics, culture, and the shifting landscape of American cities. They kick things off by examining how Zohran Mamdani mobilized young voters in New York and why the Left’s embrace of socialism continues to resonate with younger generations. Adam and Anthony unpack cultural responses to political change, explore why Jewish voters often lean progressive, and dive into the tribal roots of antisemitism. Scaramucci also weighs in on California’s transformation from a red state to a blue one, and Adam reacts to the viral clip of the San Francisco mayor being booed out of a Pride parade. Later on in the show, Elisha Krauss joins Adam to reflect on the six-month mark since the California wildfires, revisiting a tense podcast recorded right after Adam was forced to evacuate. They talk about the slow pace of rebuilding and the lack of leadership in the aftermath. Then, they break down AOC’s comments about her high school yearbook photo, and the continued scrutiny over her Bronx vs. Westchester upbringing. Finally, they react to Charlize Theron’s jab at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez, after the couple’s over-the-top $50 million wedding bash. Get it on.
