andrew quomo now doing a radio show and he came up with a concept you got to give the guy

0:17.7

credit this could revolutionize things he came up with a concept for a radio show.

0:22.1

He calls it the pulse of the people, where he takes the pulse of the people.

0:29.0

And the way he does this.
