Listen "Getting to Know Matthew Frumin"
Episode Synopsis
In this Hearing the Council episode, we get to know Ward 3's Matthew Frumin. Councilmember sat for his first interview just eight days after being sworn into office--a Hearing the Council record!

- How he dodged COVID through an entire campaign, but how it caught up with him at the last moment and nearly made him miss his swearing-in
- His world travels during his time with the State Department, including his favorite destinations
- The unlikely way the OJ Simpson trial temporarily impacted what name he goes by
- His run for Congress in 2000
- And, as always in initial Hearing the Council interviews...dessert rankings!
