The Josh Lafazan Show

"The Josh Lafazan Show" is a daily YouTube show created to elevate voices of common sense and compromise, and directly address those millions of Americans who feel that far too few in politics are speaking for them. “The Think Tank” with Josh Lafazan is a weekly radio show that’s laser-focused on today’s biggest problems in America and the world, and how we solve them. Unlike other shows which simply identify problems that exist, our host Josh Lafazan - New York’s youngest elected official - takes us inside the Think Tank to explore these issues through the lens of how we can fix them.
