David & Stu…Unhinged!

Hosted ByDavid & Stu

“David & Stu . . . Unhinged!” offers a unique glimpse into the world's most pressing (and
most trivial) issues through the eyes of two of Greenwich Village’s jaded residents, who are
usually pissed off about something. From allowing people to legally sh** on our sidewalks to
"discrimination" against fat people, David Simonetti, a writer and attorney, and Stu Richel, a
critically acclaimed actor, screenwriter, and Vietnam War vet, offer an acerbic yet civilized
perspective on politics and life in New York City. Occasionally veering into the abyss of rage, like
Stu's unbridled contempt for Jane Fonda and David's rage about those who ask for ice cream
samples, the duo from two different generations will enchant you with their common-sense
reactions speckled with off-the-rails humor, anger, and dismay.

29: Mayor Bass’ Broken Promise, NYC’s Unnoticed Landmarks, Kathy Hochul’s Congestion Pricing Flip Flop & the Power of Private Philanthropy

Flop & the Power of Private Philanthropy

Welcome to episode twenty-nine of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:

1) An update on the tragic LA Fires, how Mayor Karen Bass flagrantly broke her promise not to engage in foreign travel, and her praise of Fidel Castro as a “champion of social justice.”

2) Stu recounts what he encounters as he strolls NYC streets, including a plaque commemorating Union soldiers.

3) Kathy Hochul's outrageous flip-flop on congestion pricing and how it is merely another tax on the working class that will be used to subsidize the losses from fare evasion that the Democrats won't prosecute or punish.

4) Eugene Lang's private philanthropy and how he helped underserved communities obtain higher education.
