Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros bring on Queens’ 21st district Councilman, Francisco Moya, to chat about his important role in bringing NYCFC’s new soccer stadium to Queens. The trio discuss what obstacles Francisco dealt with along the way as well as what fans, as well as queens residents, can expect as the stadium gets built.

Christian and Alexis then chat about Councilman Maya’s other love in Barcelona. Francisco tells us how he became a fan of the Catalan club and his experiences supporting the team, including meeting the club president, Joan Laporta, and Barca legend, Lionel Messi.

Councilman Moya also talks about the resources his office provides to keep NYC immigrant residents safe.
