Extra Extra: 2 former New York governors sharing thoughts on sex work
Aug. 19, 2025, 2 p.m.
Because Andrew Cuomo and Eliot Spitzer are both sharing some thoughts, here are your afternoon links: New Tony Soprano mural in Montclair, redhead James Bond, spice world and more.

Good Tuesday afternoon in New York City, where the weather is nice but the rip currents are not.
Here's what else is happening:
- Andrew Cuomo, who kicked off the week criticizing Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani for co-sponsoring a bill to decriminalize sex work, later told reporters he doesn't remember the 2021 law he himself signed that scaled back sex worker arrests.
- Somewhat related, Eliot Spitzer told Vanity Fair that his scandal, had it happened now, might not have disqualified him from holding elected office.
- Bookmark this in case you ever need to find a pool table in the city.
- Lackawanna Station mall in Montclair, New Jersey, got a massive and very photorealistic mural of Tony Soprano.
- It's confirmed: Chappell Roan shot her "The Subway" music video at the New York Transit Museum.
- They're saying the new "Love Island" for virgins is bad.
- Could 007 be a woman? What about a redhead?
- Spice up your life.
- And finally, "again":
