Listener supported WNYC Studios.

It's the Brian Lyre Show on WNYC. Good morning, everyone. Today we'll continue our WNYC

Centennial series, 100 Years of 100 Things. It's thing number 89, 100 years of women in the

military, including your oral history, stories of women in your family who served anytime from World War I until now.

Of course, that could include yourself.

We're doing this on the 50th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, which is today.

Your women in the Vietnam era military stories very much invited in about an hour from now.

Also today, we continue our series on

being upwardly mobile without a college degree. Today it's politics and people getting

skilled through alternative routes. People with college degrees or not, of course, with such a

defining demographic line between who voted for Trump and who voted for Harris in the election,

right, are Democratic and Republican ways to help Americans with no college degrees move up

the economic ladder any different. But we start with our usual Wednesday visit from our

lead city hall reporter, Elizabeth Kim, with news from the New York City mayoral race

and the Adams administration. And today it's Liz Plus One, WNYC Transportation reporter, Ramsey Caliphay,

who did a story on unprovoked attacks in the subway as a prime issue in the mayoral race.

We'll also touch on other city politics news,

including the announcement from Mayor Adams yesterday

as he vise for re-election of funding more after-school slots.

A plan he's looking to emphasize from his annual budget proposal expected tomorrow.

Also a plan coming from the mayor's charter revision commission to abolish partisan

primaries entirely. What? In New York City mayor elections in the future, we'll talk about that.
