Eric Adams, the 110th Mayor of NYC, oversees 320,000 employees and a $101-billion dollar budget. He sits down with Martha to talk about the challenges of running what he calls the greatest city in the world - from crime, to homelessness, to his plans to hire a “rat czar.” Martha and the Mayor discuss growing up in Brooklyn and being a beat cop, before rising to the city’s top office. Mayor Adams shares how he nearly went blind, before reversing his diabetes through a vegan diet, and the two compare thoughts on everything from composting, to their morning smoothies, to the New York Post.
