In this Apple Podcasts Show of the Year Extra, we revisit one of the most memorable stories from the series: George Michaels, the New York State Assemblyman who changed his vote on abortion, and in doing so, changed history. Host Susan Matthews talks to two of Michaels’ granddaughters about their memories of their grandfather, why they think he reversed course in such a dramatic fashion, and what “the vote” has meant to their family.
