Episode description

Moving on Up ...

This is our third BCR show with Brooklyn Council Member Raphael Espinal -- at Gebhard's Beer Culture Bar on W. 72nd Street.

Our first conversation with this young politico was in BCR #6 to talk about his initiative to create the office of Night Life Mayor. Then on BCR #16, Raphael joined us at Gabriella's for our summertime 'Margarita Crawl' to talk about his ban on plastic straws. Raphael joins us a third time to talk about his run for NYC Public Advocate. We talked about his vision for the city and his early life growing up on tough Brooklyn streets. He promised on the show that if he wins this prestigous position he will return to Bar Crawl Radio to report on the state of the city and what it's like to be a big "macher" in the city that never sleeps.
