Ross Barkan is a journalist who has been covering New York state politics, in particular the governorship of Andrew Cuomo, for the last eight years. He joins us to discuss his book The Prince: Andrew Cuomo, Coronavirus, and the Fall of New York, which provides stunning details of the (now ex-) governor\\u2019s handling of COVID, and how his deft manipulation of political power and media obscured his own role in creating staggering suffering and death among the New Yorkers he swore to represent. For more on the Cuomo saga, and the erotic contours of the \\u201cdaddy\\u201d image he cultivated among liberals, check out this week\\u2019s bonus episode, \\u201cCuomosexuality\\u201d with Justin Rogers-Cooper: patreon.com/posts/episode-293-w-56427764
