October 28, 2019 - Max & Murphy Podcast: Staten Island Borough President James Oddo

Outspoken Staten Island Borough President James Oddo, a Republican, joined the podcast to discuss a wide range of topics, from the status of his constituents seven years after Superstorm Sandy to how well his borough is prepared for the next big storm, from housing and development on the island to what he thinks is needed to make New York City government run better, from Mayor de Blasio's record to what the next mayoral race will be about, and much more.
