Assemblymember Brian Cunningham’s public profile has gone up a notch or two since making a short list of running mates for Gov. Kathy Hochul, but the Brooklyn Democrat is still far from a household name (even among Albany insiders).
So host David Lombardo sat down with Cunningham in the studio at the Capitol to discuss his background (he interned with Sen. Kevin Parker), whether he’s been vetted for the LG role (he hasn’t), and the untold story behind his first name (you’ll have to listen for that one).
