About this episode
Felipe and Butch break down the chaotic history of 1970s New York, from redlining and urban decay to the Bronx fires, gang culture, sanitation strikes, and political corruption. With comedy, riffs, and wild personal takes, they trace how the city fell apart — and how it shaped music, art, and modern culture.
