Radio Free Bay Ridge

Little known fact: Zohran helped run the Father K campaign in Bay Ridge back in '17. ❤️

A shoutout tonight to all the alumni of the Father K campaign. Yalla.

May we suggest US? :)

Last night, we heard all or our favorite bikelash arguments.

We also heard something novel and unhinged from Board member Stephen Harrison.

He believes that the presence of Citi Bike docks in the street will lower the value of homes so much that DOT should compensate nearby property owners.

Tomorrow's CB10 traffic and transportation meeting will be an important one. If we're going to reduce traffic, limit car dependency, and improve street safety, we need a dense and usable network of alternative transit modes.

Show your support of cycling and less public space for car storage.

Kids rides and games at the fair

If you’re looking for the kid rides and the climbing wall at fun on fifth, it’s between 72nd and Ovington, and if you’ve already had enough zepoles try the Nigerian vegan food truck at 73rd.

Or maybe House Representative, Nicole Malliotakis forgot that my family members are registered voters & her constituents here in #NY11. Or maybe she just doesn’t care. But plenty of people in our district do care. @radiofreebr.bsky.social @agounardes.bsky.social @justinbrannan.bsky.social

Thanks! Sometimes our autism brain is a bit perfectionist and gets in the way of doing things fast.

The Origins of the Bay Ridge Environmental Group Danny Loud, one of the founders of the Bay Ridge Environmental Group, explores the group's early years and first actions.

Here's an example though of one of our previous episodes. Kayla's is coming over the weekend most likely! Ingeborg is still in progress.

Sadly requires lots of time to do right, on top of our day jobs.

We've found that tons of local place names, political phrases, etc get garbled pretty badly. Plus the tech is still woefully bad at understanding who is speaking when.

That, plus we also need to confirm timestamps so it can override YouTube's bad automated transcript as well.

Yes, but we need to review all AI transcripts due to the hyper local nature of the podcast. Still takes hours. Automated methods are filled with errors that need to be caught with manual listens, along with reformatting and typing.

(See some of our other episodes which we have transcriptions for)

Yep! We are already working on it, unfortunately it takes some time to manually type it all out and edit.

Deliverista Domain Cleric gets the Find Steed (Bike) spell always prepared, bonus movement, and can administer a potion or healing item as a bonus action. Alarm, Expeditious Retreat, Goodberry Level 1 spell list.

Way of Pedestrians Monk gives Uncanny Dodge and a reaction to move half speed if an enemy ends its turn within 5 feet of you. Mounted enemies no longer have advantage against you if you are smaller than the mount. Deflect Missile now works on pamphlets and palm cards.

Path of Double Parking provides a grapple reaction against enemies that take the disengage action within 5 feet, and resistance to thunder damage.

Bay Ridge D&D subclass ideas:

Circle of the Narrows Druid
Facebook Patron Warlock
Path of Double Parking Barbarian
Porch Pirate Rogue
Deliverista Domain Cleric
Way of Pedestrians Monk
R Train Commuter Fighter
Oath of Community Board Paladin
Brunch Walker Ranger
Sinkhole Sorcerer
CUNY Wizard

And yes, before you ask: if she is elected, you will be able to tag her on Facebook to get a pot hole filled.

Trumps DOJ accidentally misfile a letter acknowledging they have huge legal holes in their attempts to kill Congestion Pricing, which is improving air quality, lowering traffic, funding transit, and improving commutes.

Nicole Malliotakis Empty Chair Town Hall · Indivisible Brooklyn Nicole Malliotakis is now in her third term representing NY-11, but she still hasn’t held a single public town hall where constituents can ask questions and get real answers. At a time when public acc...

THANK YOU for organizing this, we can't wait for your next event!

Nicole Malliotakis Staten Island Empty Chair Town Hall Check out our recap (and listen to the audio from) the Staten Island Empty Chair Town Hall for Congressmember Nicole Malliotakis.

#NY11 owes a huge thank-you to @mikedecillis.bsky.social, who organized a MASSIVE #HandsOff town hall on Staten Island on April 5th & plans additional actions throughout the district. Nicole may want to hide, but these constituents will hold her accountable.

House Republicans’ next headache: The Medicaid fight If House Republican leadership can force the Senate-passed budget resolution through the chamber, they’ll quickly face a showdown over cutting Medicaid.

Malliotakis: “There’s a clear understanding between many of us and the speaker. We will not vote for something that takes away eligibility from our constituents, period.” Priceless.

Eligibility without funding? Meaningless.

NY11 is watching. Call her 202-225-3121.

punchbowl.news/article/hous...

Here's Rep. Nicole Malliotakis #NY11 watching a house burn down and telling everyone trapped inside that their heating costs are decreasing so why are they complaining.

(202) 225-3371 - Washington DC

(718) 568-2870 - Staten Island

(718) 306-1620 - Brooklyn

Tell Nicole to support the bipartisan bill to challenge Trump's tariffs.

Your Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis on the historic market crash and meltdown:

It's just "a little turbulence as you move to smooth skies."

Remember that in a few months, when the full effects begin to be felt. The person you elected to protect you said it's merely "a little turbulence"

As we review audio from today's #HandsOff town hall in #NY11, we find ourselves wondering - did "Shame! Shame! Shame!" exist in protest parlance previous to Cersei's walk in GOT? (Honest question).

We took a field trip to Staten Island today and we couldn't have been more impressed! Organizers let us know there's another town hall in the works for Brooklyn - stay tuned and plan on SHOWING UP! #NY11 #HandsOff

Note: the beloved 3rd Avenue festivals are technically under the DOTs Open Streets plan.

Unclear if this means the summer festivals on 3rd are in jeopardy under Mayor Adams.
