Hi. My name is Philip Skitch and I am the host of the Dad, nobody wants to listen to you podcast. I have lived and visited New York in each of the last four decades, and after my last trip in July 2023 to visit my son and family members, I was inspired to investigate some social issues from my perspective as an American - Englishman living in Germany, who has seen New York and America change more dramatically in the last ten years than the combined 40 years.
