Hialeah's New Mayor Has a Plan to Transform the City
Bryan Calvo
Hialeah is one of Miami-Dade's biggest and most culturally rich cities — and its youngest mayor in history is on a mission to modernize it. Bryan Calvo joins us to break down exactly what he's changing, from AI-powered permitting and property tax reform to mixed-use development and a full revitalization of Southeast Hialeah. He also opens up about the Cuba situation, money laundering concerns, the Netflix film "The Rip" based in Hialeah, and what his message is to Miami-Dade County. Plus his top 3 restaurants and the story behind the Chancleta Race. If you live in or care about Hialeah — this is a must-watch.
