90 - The Passion of the Comments
Episode description
This week we’re talking about the boat that we cannot believe is still stuck in the Suez Canal, and lots of NY happenings. Cuomo has announced a Covid passport system that is a terrible idea for lots of reasons. A judge in Troy has ruled in favor of a predatory landlord who bullied a tenant out of her home in the middle of a pandemic. The Troy Police Reform and Reinvention Collaborative has released its final report, which says that they have too much stuff to do and would like a basketball court. And finally, NYS is on the verge of finally passing cannabis legalization… with a catch.
