On episode #216 of Boroughs & Burbs, we head uptown to explore one of Manhattan's most intellectually rich and architecturally distinctive neighborhoods: Morningside Heights. Joining us is Pierre Malterre-West and Ella Chavers of Douglas Elliman, who brings deep market insight into a community shaped by world-class institutions, historic prewar buildings, and a growing mix of longtime residents, faculty, students, and buyers seeking value north of Central Park. We discuss how Columbia University, Barnard, Riverside Church, and nearby parks influence housing demand, what types of properties are most sought after, and how pricing compares to neighboring areas. From co-ops to condos and townhouses, Pierre and Ella break down why Morningside Heights remains one of Manhattan's most compelling and misunderstood submarkets.

An overlooked Tom Hanks comedy that represents the end of his pre-Oscar 1980s comedy run. This is one of Johnny's favorite Hanks comedies, though Mike doesn't feel the same. We still had a great chat about how 80's this movie is, including wondering if it would have been considered more of an iconic 80's comedy had it cast Gary Busey and Rick Moranis alongside Hanks?Either way, ya got Carrie Fisher, Bruce Dern, Corey Feldman, and the legendary BROTHER THEODORE holding it down. Plus you get an exclusive announcement from Mike on the Sharon Stone-less CASINO cut, coming soon. Thanks for listening to the program and as always be kind, rewind, relax, and enjoy the show!

"They're here already! You're next! You're next! You're next!" The Cold War Cinema team returns to discuss the 1956 sci-fi classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Something is off in the sleepy little town of Santa Mira, California. As residents begin worrying that their family and friends no longer seem to be who they say they are, Dr. Miles Bennell and his former flame Becky Driscoll slowly uncover an alien plot to replace every person on earth with otherworldly duplicates. Directed by Don Siegel (Riot on Cell Block 11, Dirty Harry, Escape from Alcatraz) and written by Daneil Mainwaring (Out of the Past), and with uncredited work by blacklisted screenwriter Richard Collins (Song of Russia), Invasion explores myriad maladies in midcentury American culture. Join hosts Jason Christian, Tony Ballas, and Paul T. Klein as we discuss: The many complicated—and often contradictory—political allegories often read into the film from both the left and the right, including anti-communist and anti-conformist messages. The political and discursive handwringing done by Invasion's creative team to distance themselves and the film from its most potent politics. Invasion's other formal and narrative critiques of psychoanalysis, middle-class nuclear family values, professional expertise, and the Hollywood studio system. Why movies are not riddles to be solved. _____________________ We love to give book or film recommendations on the podcast, so here are ours for this episode: Paul recommends Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982, Tommy Lee Wallace).
