SASHA MERCI | "NEW YORK OR NOWHERE" | Derek Gaines & Dave Temple | NNFA #444

This week, Sasha Merci is back and we get into everything, from wild subway stories while growing up in the Bronx to why New York really is just a small town. We debate NYC vs LA culture, break down why “the world comes to New York,” and get real about money, lifestyle, and why LA just doesn’t hit the same for everyone. Plus: Skid Row stories, zodiac chaos, higher thoughts, Bad Bunny’s global takeover, and a hilarious new game “Who’s Slang Is It Anyway?” It’s funny, chaotic, and a VERY New York episode!
