First, a little “personal news” for the pod: FAQ NYC is now part of The Brick House, a brand new, wolf-proof media cooperative (you can read former FAQ guest Ben Smith’s write up in The New York Times here) for journalists working without investors or advertisers. We hope you’ll check it out, and — for the first time after 98 episodes — we’d love to have your financial support, dear listener, to help keep us going and support a whole crew of independent journalists.
And with that, it’s over to this week’s episode, where Chrissy runs down some ominous New York news, Harry recalls getting accidentally stoned on the job, again, and — the highlight — Alex talks with musician Stefan Zeniuk about his (beautiful!) sonic elegy for a sewer tunnel, performed with large instruments at the entrance to a sewer tunnel in Astoria earlier this week.
