NYC Elections, Market Jitters, and Farm Show Forecast! (11-5-25)


Listen Later

Join Kevin and Alex on this Wednesday, November 5th, as they dive into a packed morning of news, markets, and local happenings. The major focus is the recent elections, particularly the victory of the new New York City figure they call "Mandami" and the debate surrounding his socialist-leaning platform, a move some fear could accelerate the city's decline, causing the wealthy to flee, and potentially impacting the rest of the country. They play and analyze clips from his acceptance speech, which included a quote from socialist Eugene Debs. On the financial front, Brian Cronk of Collins and Cronk discusses market volatility, the AI tech stock "bubble," and the decentralization of the financial world away from New York. In local news, they chat with Bridget Riedel about the inaugural, all-day WDAY radio Farm Show, including its special guests, giveaways, and focus on agriculture's future, from land management to Bitcoin. Plus, Dean delivers the weather forecast (and a lunch-wager update!), and Big Game James runs down the latest in North Dakota high school volleyball, Timberwolves, Wild, and local football playoffs.
