On paper, a thirty-three-year-old socialist would seem an unlikely contender for mayor of New York City. But Zohran Mamdani's campaign proved compelling enough to make him the front-runner to lead the largest city in America. On the first in a series of Critics at Large interview episodes, Naomi Fry talks with her fellow staff writer Eric Lach about the surprising protagonist of this year's mayoral race. Together, they contextualize Mamdani's persona within a long history of New York characters, from Batman to Bill de Blasio, and consider the hold these narratives have on observers within the city and beyond. “The history of New York City mayors is not a litany of successes and heroes. It's mostly fuck-ups and rogues,” Lach says. “Often, it's this tug-of-war between the machine and the reformer.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:Zohran Mamdani's “Uganda Miss Me! (But I'll Be Back Soon)”“Gangs of New York” (2002)“The Gangs of New York,” by Herbert Asbury“Low Life,” by Lucy Sante“Serpico” (1973)“The Dark Knight” (2008)New episodes drop every Thursday.

Are you the King/Queen of your life?!Are you the Main Character?!Are you behaving like one?!
Goodbye rat men, hello messy girls. This year's crop of TV protaginists is flipping the script. We'll hear what it means when goofy sidekicks become main characters. Plus, who's tracking your data, who they're selling it to and why you should care.
Sis. This one is for YOU—the version of you that's been dimming her light, shrinking back, and second-guessing if it's “too much” to walk in the authority God gave you. This isn't about ego. It's not about hot girl summer for the aesthetic. This is what happens when purpose meets obedience. In this powerful, truth-packed episode, Brandi isn't calling you out—she's calling you UP. She's unpacking what main character energy really looks like in the Kingdom. It's not loud. It's not arrogant. It's not you getting everything you want. It's alignment. Boldness. Confidence. Authority. Peace. Obedience. So why are we so afraid to walk in it? Brandi digs deep into the real reason many of us settle for being the side character in our own story—and how the enemy uses guilt, fear, and false humility to keep us small. If you've ever felt conflicted about being too much, questioned your assignment, or caught yourself shrinking so others feel more comfortable, this one will wreck you in the best way. Connect and Join the Conversation: Which of these really hit home for you? Chime in in the comments, tag me on Instagram, or share in the Bossy Posse and let's connect!

✨ MAIN CHARACTER ENERGY 101
EP 219: Stop Performing, Start Living - Let Go of the Good Girl Script and Embrace Your Main Character Energy
#195: If your daily life has started to feel like one long to-do list, this episode will help you slow down, feel more, and start living like the main character. Josie is breaking down what “romanticizing your life” actually means (hint: it's not just about matcha and mood lighting) and how to turn the most mundane parts of your day—emails, errands, brushing your teeth—into rituals that make you feel alive. You'll learn how intentionality, sensory upgrades, and small mindset shifts can completely change your experience of life. Think: the science behind joy, the art of mindful routines, and the everyday magic hiding in your coffee cup or commute. This isn't self-help fluff—it's a practice in reclaiming presence, pleasure, and personal power. Because you don't need a vacation, a glow-up, or a different life to start enjoying the one you have. You just need to start experiencing it differently.For Detailed Show Notes visit theeverygirlpodcast.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Happy Monday girlies! In this episode, we're exploring how the rise of “main character energy” in culture can lead us to idolize ourselves more than we realize. From the subtle ways we prioritize our own desires to the ways we remove ourselves from other people's stories, this conversation is a reminder to re-center your life on Christ.We'll talk about Jesus' example of self-denial, the difference between self-love and self-worship, and what it really looks like to die to self. Because true freedom doesn't come from being the star. It comes from surrender.Follow us: @girlsirlpod@mariahclayton_Don't forget to leave a 5 star rating!
