THIS WEEK'S EPISODE:

Episode #1046: I've Said Too Much
First Broadcast: 2/23/26
Pro Tip: If an A.I. chatbot tells you to show up at a certain location on a certain date at a certain time because that's where it says you're going to meet your soulmate, DON'T YOU BELIEVE IT! If you're an actor, and A.I. video steals your likeness, you might want to contact your union! And what kind of advertising will A.I. bring you if it has "the amorality of a sociopath"? Can anything be done to stop dynamic pricing that changes from person to person? Are people so credulous about A.I. as a result of a steady diet of reality television, which is some of the most unreal TV out there? How long will we keep trying to kick this football? Excuse me while I hide out from the snow...

So, what is Free New York anyway? The simple answer is that it's a this neat little public access TV show on Manhattan Neighborhood Network which I co-produce with the tremendous help of my camerawoman/editor/everything else, Kim. The complicated answer is that it's a project of mine to broadcast opinions and events which don't always appear within "the mainstream media" (like The New York Times, the major networks, local radio, etc.), and so far I think it's been working.

If you think I'm doing a good job--or not--and you feel like sending me snail mail, the address is:

Free New York
P.O. Box 20945
Tompkins Square Station
New York, NY 10009

You can also email me at fny@freenewyork.net, which should get to me a lot faster than the snail mail.
