Bonus Rerelease: Save The Kids, Ban Brokers Fees

Anyone who has paid 15% of their annual rent in brokers fees for someone to let you into an apartment for only 10 minutes knows the practice is nothing more than legalized theft — and the City Council is voting today, November 13, on the FARE Act to finally end it. So we're rereleasing a October 2023 episode with Council Member Chi Ossé, the main sponsor of the FARE Act, about his fight against the real estate lobby and how making the city more attractive and accessible to young people can make it better for everyone. For more, read Bradley's NY Daily News op-ed in support of banning brokers fees. This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City’s only free podcast recording studio.
