About this Episode

The ineffable and inimitable gadfly and entrepreneur Baruch Herzfeld joins Amy Sohn and Harry Siegel to talk about schemes and dreams, the thousand-dollar bet he lost to  a Fugee but hasn’t paid, the guys who climbed telephone poles when Williamsburg was wild, and much more — but mostly the city-wide battery-swap network he’s trying to build.
