About this listen

 Tune in to the Other Side of Midnight with Lionel for a fast-paced, late-night ride through the quirks of human behavior, global politics, and old-school street grit. In this packed episode, Lionel breaks down the unapologetic, proactive philosophy of neoconservatism, unravels the hidden family apathy behind Bobby Gentry's classic 1967 hit "Ode to Billy Joe", and sounds off on the antics of modern politicians. Plus, a colorful cast of callers weigh in on everything from the "knuckleheads" ruining community values to a bizarre tale of polite Japanese traffic cops slapping pedestrians. The hour culminates in a fascinating interview with an ex-NYPD transit detective who shares firsthand stories of 1980s subway crime, arresting fare beaters, "broken windows" policing, and the legendary squeegee squads of the Giuliani era.
