Complexity on the Menu: The State of NYC's Restaurant Industry

Épisode 36

mercredi 5 août 2026 • Durée 29:00

Andrew Rigie was five years old when he started rolling rugelach at his grandfather's Brooklyn bakery at 4:30 in the morning. Now he runs the New York City Hospitality Alliance, which represents an industry that employs more than a quarter-million people, pays more than $11 billion in wages and generates around $2.8 billion a year in sales tax revenue. In this episode of "After Hours with Jamie Rubin," Rigie explains why the handful of restaurants you can't get a table at is a misleading picture of the other 24,000, how Bloomberg's letter-grade rating system saw Health Department fines spike without a corresponding drop in foodborne illness — and how a $30 minimum wage threatens to turn a busy neighborhood restaurant's $100,000 profit into a $380,000 loss.

The Lifeguard Fiefdom

Épisode 35

mercredi 8 juillet 2026 • Durée 19:52

In the summer of 2022, families in New York City were waiting six hours in the heat to swim for one hour. Julie Sandorf, who ran the Charles Revson Foundation for nearly two decades, decided to find out why — and what she found was a lifeguard program that had been controlled by a single union official for nearly fifty years, accountable to no one, operating under certification requirements that exist nowhere else in the country, with exactly one test site in all of New York City. Jamie talks with Julie about how a Chicago after-school program from 2000 ended up being the model for fixing these problems and what it actually means to be a smart, catalytic private funder in a city government this complicated.

The Myth of Millionaire Flight

Épisode 34

mercredi 24 juin 2026 • Durée 30:45

New York might be next in a growing line of states adopting millionaire taxes — and the same old fear comes with it: tax the rich too hard and they'll leave, taking their businesses and their tax revenue with them. Cristobal Young, an economic sociologist at Cornell, has spent over twenty years testing that fear against actual IRS data, going back to New Jersey's first millionaire tax fight in 2004. His finding, consistently: millionaires barely move at all, and when they do, it's rarely for tax reasons. Jamie talks with Young about why a wealth tax on people like Elon Musk might be worth the administrative headache and why — twenty years in — the deepest driver of where people live still isn't the tax code.

Making the Shade

Épisode 32

mercredi 10 juin 2026 • Durée 20:41

New York City just released its first-ever Urban Forest Plan — a legally mandated, decade-by-decade roadmap to get the city's tree canopy from 23% to 30% by 2040. Jamie talks with Adam Lubinsky, a partner at W X Y architecture + urban design, who helped build the plan from the ground up. They cover why preserving old trees matters as much as planting new ones, why the only property type where canopy has been shrinking is one- and two-family homes, and why one-third of the city's urban forest sits on private land that nobody's currently watching.

The LIRR and the Lost Art of the Labor Fight

Épisode 31

mercredi 27 mai 2026 • Durée 29:15

On this episode of After Hours, Jamie talks to Fred Naiden — Columbia grad, former TWU Local 100 motorman, Harvard PhD, and recently retired UNC classics professor — about his new book, Railroaded: A Motorman's Story of the New York City Subway. Recorded the day after the Long Island Rail Road went on strike and settled, Jamie and Fred discuss the 1980 subway strike, what it was really like to walk off the job, why working conditions mattered more than wages, and how the city's transit world has changed since the days of 15,000 subway crimes a year. Fred also offers a pointed assessment of Mayor Mamdani — through the lens of someone who learned organizing from a communist rent-strike leader known only as "The General."

Lessons from Tokyo

Épisode 30

jeudi 14 mai 2026 • Durée 43:55

For more solutions-oriented thinking on urban life, visit the Vital City website at https://www.vitalcitynyc.org/

Joe McReynolds has two jobs. By day, he's a national security analyst tracking Chinese information warfare. Nights and weekends, he's a Tokyo obsessive with a PhD in progress, a private digital library of hundreds of Japanese-language urban studies books, and a story about the time he frantically called his boss to manufacture an emergency just so he could fly to Tokyo and show Ezra Klein around. Jamie sits down with McReynolds to talk about what New York could actually learn from a city where you can open a bar in your living room for $2,000, health inspections happen every five to seven years, and grandmas sell homemade lunchboxes off folding tables without anyone hassling them. Also: public toilets, the 1961 down-zoning that broke everything, and why Joe is terrified about the short term but quietly hopeful about geoengineering.

The Debt Gala: The Red Carpet for the People

Épisode 29

vendredi 1 mai 2026 • Durée 10:52

The Met Gala, the largest fundraiser in America, raises money for the Costume Institute at the Met Museum, which pays a dollar a year in rent. Tom Costello thinks we can do better. Jamie sits down with the theater director and co-founder of the Debt Gala — a genuinely joyful alternative happening the night before fashion's biggest party — to talk about medical debt, the miracle math of buying it for pennies on the dollar, and why $19,000 can quietly erase nearly $2 million in someone's financial nightmare.

The Cost of Freezing the Rent

Épisode 28

mercredi 22 avril 2026 • Durée 33:25

Freezing the rent sounds simple. Alex Armlovich, one of the sharpest housing policy minds in the country, explains why it isn't — and why that doesn't mean it's wrong. Jamie and Alex, a fellow at the Niskanen Center and program officer at Coefficient Giving, dig into what the Rent Guidelines Board actually does, what happens to buildings when operating costs outpace revenue, and what a "physical equity extractor" is — and why you don't want one buying your building.

The Honest City Budget

Épisode 27

mercredi 8 avril 2026 • Durée 37:41

Jamie talks to Louisa Chafee, the head of the city's Independent Budget Office, about what it means when a mayor is honest about spending but bullish on income. The new administration delivered on its promise to provide fiscal transparency. But with a $6 billion gap projected for next year, growing to $11 billion by 2030, the question isn't just whether the math adds up. It's whether a property tax hike the City Council doesn't want and Wall Street revenues nobody can predict are really a plan. Along the way: class size mandates, nonprofit payment delays and public bathrooms.

What's the Deal with SEQRA?

Épisode 26

mercredi 25 mars 2026 • Durée 39:09

In the latest episode of After Hours with Jamie Rubin, Annemarie Gray of Open New York joins the podcast to discuss the growing momentum behind housing reform in New York. Fresh off a major victory in reforming the City Charter, Gray breaks down the push for State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA) reform — a 50-year-old law originally designed to protect the environment that she argues is now being weaponized to block green, transit-oriented development. From the shifting political landscape under Mayor Zohran Mamdani to the "invisible" regulatory hurdles adding tens of thousands of dollars to the cost of a single apartment, Gray explains why modernizing these rules is essential for an "all-of-the-above" approach to affordability.
