We're looking back at one of America's most polarizing wars -- Vietnam. Do Americans still hold passionate and split opinions 50 years later? But first, we're digging into our new numbers on everything that New Yorkers think. From leadership to the economy, from congestion pricing to quality of life, you won't want to miss it! Finally, just in time for Easter, we have a candy-focused fun fact that might be more lighthearted... but just as polarizing!
The Vietnam War ended 50 years ago with the fall of Saigon. For America, it was a bitter end to a conflict that ripped both Vietnam and America apart. So much has changed since, but long-held feelings remain. We're looking at what Americans -- most of whom were not alive or old enough to really remember -- think now.
We're starting with a deep dive into our recent New York State survey in which we found a lot of unhappiness. There's pretty widespread negativity about the state's leadership, direction, economy, and even congestion pricing! We're discussing what it means that one of America's bluest states is so....blue.
And we finish with an Easter treat -- actually two Easter treats and a big disagreement about which is best.
