## Resource

The town of Rye wants to charge for parking along Route 1A. High school seniors Aidan Chin and Lorax Reed have a big problem with that. In their first sit-down interview since releasing this viral video criticizing Rye's intentions to pay for beach access, the two youthful faces of the Free Rye Parking movement join host Troy Farkas in this bonus episode to discuss why they started this fight against the town, how they've gained 10,000 signatures on their petition, the impact of their viral video, why they believe in youth activism, and whether they believe they'll ultimately be successful. Plus, the guys fill Troy in on the Seacoast youth dating scene and why Snapchat is still so popular with the kids!
