Even before the hour ends, my first take on Jen Psaki's show.

Ignoring the first day jitters, I REALLY like the notion of interviewing her big guests in their home environment. In this episode, it was Gretchen Whitmer at her alma mater, Michigan State, and Eric Adams on the streets and in the subway of New York City.

Very refreshing.

Yes, I would like to hear his rationale for that very problematic stance. Celerity Mar 2023 #6

A fresh insider's background so she's got the questions that need to be asked. Watching right now, I will probably watch it regularly.

Jen has taken her interviews out of the studio and into the Real People's Streets. And now we see Mayor in the kitchen making morning smoothies. Her show is a great improvment over most Sunday Morning shows!

I live a thousand miles away, so he's not my mayor. But, I find his comments quite concerning.

The last thing we need is more state sponsored religion.

Especially since she didn’t ask Adams about his unconstitutional, anti-democracy stance on church and state.

Americans are failing to embrace spirituality. He also called criticism of his statements 'noise' (when she asked him about people being concerned about separation of church and state via bringing prayer and religion back into schools). He said one of the most important things he learned is to not allow noise to get in the way of what everyday people hear.
