The Famous Fat Dave experience has managed to attract a good deal of media attention. But until this morning, none of the stories delved into my psyche or explored my passion. Mark Phillips (the musical genius behind the pop sensation Sono Oto) worked for months on a New York Public Radio story that aired on WNYC 93.9’s “Weekend Edition.” Mark tagged along on a couple eating tours, rode shot gun in my yellow cab picking up fares late at night, and ate a LOT of food with me. In just four minutes and forty seconds, he manages to capture the essence of what I do, why I do it, who I am, and why I love this town.

    Patsy’s is not the best – but you are still my idol.

    Congratulations. I happened to be listening while driving and i turned it up, with passengers in my cab driving through times square. I laughed out loud when you said you impersonated cab drivers when you were younger by flooring the gas and then slamming on the brakes. oh, oh, oh so true, haha!
