We've spent three episodes getting the sports girlies ready for football season. We learned the game. We learned about the NFL. We're about to learn fantasy football. But for this episode and the next?   We're talking about our team.

I didn't understand why they were called coney dogs if they're a Detroit specialty and Coney Island is in New York. But it just doesn't matter when something is as good as GoDaddy Promo Code CJCFOSSIG3, so I get year one of a three-year domain for ninety-nine percent off! That is as delicious as the coney dog.

On September 11th, 2001, while running routine sea trials off the Virginia coast, USS George Washington (CVN-73) became the U.S. Navy's first responder to the attacks on New York and the Pentagon — designated command ship for East Coast air defense within three hours, under Vice Admiral J. Cutler Dawson, and steaming overnight to stand three miles off Coney Island by dawn. Over the next five days her air wings flew 234 armed patrols, without a single accident. Co-host Dale was aboard as a young Machinist's Mate — and for the first time, tells that story himself: asleep when it started, in the hangar bay when the smoke came into view.

We welcome the legendary lettering and graphic design artist Michael Doret, whose 5-decade career includes work for Kiss, the New York Knicks, Disney/Pixar, and Time Magazine covers now in the National Portrait Gallery. He talks about why he wrote Growing Up in Alphabet City, published in late 2024, and his wanting to tell his own story before someone else did. He also gets into how childhood visuals shaped his color and letterforms, often subconsciously, from a Good Humor truck decal to Coney Island signage.   The conversation covers his path through tuition-free Cooper Union, mentorship under Ed Benguiat at Photo-Lettering, a formative Push Pin stint with Milton Glaser, his sketch-first process, declining standards in signage, skepticism about AI originality, the origins of the Knicks logo, and his advice to work less and live more.

Today, we're learning about the massive capital investments heading to Detroit's East Side — specifically around Gratiot, 7 Mile, and Denby-Whittier.  To do it, Norris Howard and I sit down at our TechTown studio with Kala Gibson, Chief Corporate Responsibility Officer for Fifth Third Bank.  Kala shares his personal story growing up in Detroit, how a neighborhood bank closing shaped his career, and why Fifth Third is committing hundreds of millions of dollars to housing, workforce development, and small business grants across the city. Plus, we talk about straight-talk banking, supporting local entrepreneurs, and a little local debate over Detroit pizza and classic Coney spots. In this episode: The origin story behind Fifth Third's Neighborhood Program and the expansion from G7 (Gratiot and 7 Mile) into Denby-Whittier. How $5,300 grants and low-interest loans are helping local neighborhood businesses grow without taking on massive debt. Why physical bank branches and community capital are critical to rebuilding neighborhood corridors. Kala's favorite homecoming food stops in Detroit (and a hot take on Coney Island spots).

In Episode 172 of Hell Has an Exit, Bryan sits down with October, a 21-year-old from Brooklyn whose story shows just how quickly addiction can take over a life. Growing up surrounded by addiction, instability, and trauma, October was introduced to recovery long before she ever needed it herself. But by her teenage years, drugs had become part of her own story. After moving to New York City at 17, what initially felt like partying and freedom quickly spiraled into something much darker.  By 19, October was using fentanyl, experiencing repeated overdoses, losing friends, and reaching a point where she knew she might not survive much longer. One desperate moment in Coney Island, followed by an ultimatum from her mother, ultimately forced her to make a choice: continue down the same path or get on a plane to Florida and give recovery a chance.  Now two years clean, October opens up about what happened after the drugs stopped, the uncomfortable reality of early recovery, learning to take accountability, and slowly becoming someone she actually wants to be.  This episode is raw, funny, heartbreaking, and a reminder that sometimes an entire life can change before it's even really begun.

What do we want? AJ vs. Fury! Where do want it? At this point, who cares… Dana White this week came out and revealed he's brokered the TV and site deals for Joshua vs. Fury but the old problem remains: Both fighters signed contracts with different locations, dates, and terms. Whether it happens or not, we are getting to the point of no return for this heavyweight showdown that, frankly, should already be in the past. It's an interesting discussion, though. What does the future for boxing really look like? Can Moses Itauma, for example, ever become a crossover star if he's forced to fight behind hard-to-find paywalls from this point forth? Furthermore, what becomes of the sport at grassroots level if only those that are already in full bloom are getting any water? Claressa Shields reminded of her star power at the weekend even if her opponent, Kaye Scott, was overmatched and outclassed from the start. We look ahead to Rolly Romero vs. Teofimo Lopez which undoubtedly is a good fight. But on what planet is it a PPV fight? Finally, we go back to 2016 and the contest that arguably signalled the start of Errol Spence Jnr's peak: The beatdown of the gnarled Leonard Bundu in Coney Island, New York.

New Yorkers who bird know that a common way to experience birds in the city is seasonal, and in his new book, Bird City, Ryan Goldberg captures the lives of resident and migratory birds across all five boroughs of the city. Ryan shines a light on New Yorkers who come out rain, shine, and snow to witness, protect, and advocate for the birds. He also teaches us about the city's natural history and how its geography shaped and continues to shape the fauna and flora we share this mostly archipelagic city with. (The Bronx is the exception; it's the only borough attached to the mainland.)The start of each of the four sections, a nod to the four seasons, is beautifully illustrated by Aimee Lusty. Here's what Goldberg had to say about Aimee: “She captured the drama and wildness of the city and its bird life in her illustrations, and I loved how the urban context was always there in her illustrations, like the rides of Coney Island in the background of winter's sea ducks at Breezy Point or Manhattan's illuminated skyscrapers behind warblers migrating through the Tribute in Light beams.”ResourcesRyan Goldberg's website: https://ryangoldberg.net/Aimee Lusty on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aimee.lusty/Bird VocalizationsKing Eider male call https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/31729201King Eider calls https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/137307Common Yellowthroat https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/245666251Peregrine Falcon https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/81384371 European Starling https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/151901161Eurasian Owl https://xeno-canto.org/1077911Red-tailed Hawk juvenile calls https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/175635401Piping Plover song https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/64002271Northern Shoveler female calls https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/43124About the podcastYour Bird Story is an initiative of Local Nature Lab.

The Warriors 1979 Review is finally here, and this week on Born to Watch, Whitey, Gow and Damo are heading deep into enemy territory for a movie they've been circling since the early days of the podcast. Walter Hill's 1979 cult classic has leather vests, painted faces, subway trains, some of the strangest gangs ever assembled and one very simple objective: get back to Coney Island alive. The Movie Review Podcast, where we don't take the movies or ourselves too seriously, is about to find out if The Warriors can still come out to play.For the boys, this isn't just another movie review.The Warriors carries some serious childhood baggage.This was one of those movies you heard about before you actually saw it. The video shop cover caught your eye; older kids talked about it, and somehow the movie's reputation became almost as important as the movie itself. Whitey remembers hammering it during his teenage years, while Damo recalls hiring it on VHS and watching the bloody thing twice back-to-back.That's the sort of nostalgia we're dealing with here.The setup remains magnificent.Cyrus has a dream. Get every gang in New York together, stop fighting each other and realise they collectively outnumber the cops.CAN YOU DIG IT?Unfortunately, Luther can't.Cyrus goes down, The Warriors get blamed, and suddenly a crew from Coney Island is stranded in the Bronx with every gang in New York looking to collect.What follows is essentially one long journey home through a New York City that feels like it exists in another universe.Whitey, Gow and Damo get stuck into Walter Hill's world-building and the collection of gangs roaming the streets. The Turnbull ACs look genuinely terrifying. The Lizzies have guns but apparently attended the Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy. The Orphans desperately want someone to take them seriously.And then there are the Baseball Furies.Baseball uniforms. Painted faces. Baseball bats.It shouldn't work.It absolutely works.The boys also give plenty of love to Barry De Vorzon's brilliant score. From the opening moments, that pulsing soundtrack drags you straight into The Warriors' version of New York, and the music accompanying the Baseball Furies chase remains an absolute belter.Then there's the cast.Michael Beck brings the brooding as Swan, while James Remar is perfectly unhinged as Ajax, a bloke who seems about five seconds away from causing a problem in every scene he enters.But David Patrick Kelly's Luther may own the movie.Three bottles on his fingers."Warriors... come out to play-ay."An improvised moment that became one of the most recognisable scenes in cult movie history.Of course, nostalgia only gets you so far on Born to Watch.The boys ask whether a film with such a notorious reputation is actually violent enough. They question the shooting ability of the Lizzies, the sheer amount of running required while wearing a leather vest with no shirt, and whether the final confrontation delivers the payoff the movie has been building towards.There's also plenty of Walter Hill appreciation, including his incredible run through movies like Southern Comfort, 48 Hrs., Streets of Fire, Red Heat and Last Man Standing.Where does The Warriors land?You'll have to listen.After more than four years and 226 episodes, the F-Wits have finally made it back to Coney Island.Grab your vest, paint your face, jump on the subway and come along for the ride.WARRIORS... COME OUT TO PLAY-AY!JOIN THE BORN TO WATCH CREWLove the show? Follow Born to Watch, leave us a five-star review and, most importantly, share the episode with another movie-loving F-Wit.Because podcasts don't grow on their own, people.Can you dig it?#TheWarriors #TheWarriors1979 #BornToWatch #MovieReviewPodcast #CultMovies #WalterHill #ClassicMovies #1970sMovies #BaseballFuries #CanYouDigIt

Matthew Cutolo is a third-generation chef at Gargiulo's, the Coney Island restaurant his family has run since 1965 and that has fed Brooklyn since 1907. In 1977, The New York Times gave it three stars, unheard of at the time for a restaurant outside Manhattan.He learned to bake from Mike the Bake, the restaurant's pastry chef of over forty years, who refused to write down a single recipe, including for family. Matthew asked to learn anyway. Mike's answer was, "If you want to learn, you have to watch." For the first two months, Matthew stood at the mixing bowl and watched Mike add ingredients with no measurements at all, a scoop of this, a lap around the kitchen, a conversation with someone else, back to the bowl. Only after two months did Mike start telling him what was actually going in.Why the same holiday recipe came out different every year, because it was never really written down, it was feelWhy Matthew never uses a thermometer frying cannoli, and the one thing his uncle said that changed his mind about tradition versus evolutionHow a summer internship on The Chew turned into a decision to go all in on content, and why cooking videos never worked for him but talking to the camera didAndré Natera and Matthew Cutolo cover the difference between Italian food and Italian American food and why that argument goes back to Ellis Island, the family's daily 2:30 lunch that nobody is allowed to skip, guys' night and the right way to make a negroni, the meatball debate settled once and for all, sauce versus gravy, dried pasta versus fresh, Parmigiano versus Pecorino, what actually makes a video do well on YouTube versus Instagram, and why toxic kitchens exist in family restaurants too.It ends where every episode ends, with the Mount Rushmore, and the correct cannoli filling.Guest@matthewcutolohttps://www.matthewcutolo.com/Gargiulo's on Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/gargiulosrestaurant/LinksLead Like a Chef App → https://studio.com/apps/andre/leadlikeachefGet the Books → https://chefspsa.com/booksShop Chef's PSA Merch → https://shop.chefspsa.com/Get Episodes Early on Substack → https://chefspsa.substack.com/Follow Chef's PSA on Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/chefspsa/

Summer Vacation is just about over and Clayton and Shaddock are back! An Odyssey of sorts, which is also our first topic (it's a great movie!). Then we dive into SAFC's last two games: abad 1-2 loss at home to lowly Vegas, before totally redeeming themselves 1-0 on the road at Coney Island. Welcome back Cristian Parano, and way to go Joey B! Finally we both are excited to be back in the stadium for Friday night's game vs Indy WI. We'll be celebrating our Puro Pick Four World Cup winner! As always, free kicks about future US players and the ‘Boro. Enjoy!

Opie spends the morning detonating from sugar-free “dog-shit” strawberry ice cream, turns the neighborhood into white-trash beach paradise with an above-ground cable snake through his neighbor's tomatoes, completely ignores Erik Marino's heartfelt sobriety breakdown to schedule the Spectrum guy, then the boys free-associate through Matthew Broderick's bicycle, AI Chuck Norris selling chicken fingers, banana-hammock confidence, Coney Island street vendors, NYC pet-owner cruelty, Mrs. Met's Hall of Fame grift, tip-begging car-wash robots, and a full-shirtless spiral that somehow ends with Sweet Caroline being about underage Kennedy lust. Classic FU Friday chaos.NEW Merch!

Can you dig it?The Warriors are coming out to play again—but this time, they're heading to Broadway. Lin-Manuel Miranda and Eisa Davis are transforming the cult 1979 Walter Hill movie into a full stage musical based on their acclaimed concept album. Their version reimagines the Warriors as an all-female gang and combines hip-hop, rock, salsa and R&B.Can the gritty story of a Coney Island gang fighting its way home survive the jump to Broadway, or does turning The Warriors into a Lin-Manuel Miranda musical completely miss what made the original movie work?We also get into Michael Caine licensing an AI-generated version of his voice to narrate The Odyssey, Instagram's attempt to become television, Hollywood's improving box-office numbers and the deeply uncomfortable Season 3 premiere of House of the Dragon.Plus, Trailer Trash features Ricky Gervais' Alley Cats, King of the Hill Season 15 and Apple TV's The Dink. We also run through this week's Views or Snooze releases, Staff Picks and whatever else falls out of the Labyrinth.Let us know in the comments: Does The Warriors work as a Broadway musical, or should they have left this cult classic alone?Please like, subscribe and share the show.Keep It Canon.Watch the YouTube Show: https://youtu.be/F5ZmPB7bcRsSupport Radio Labyrinth on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/timandrews▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀Hosts: Tim Andrews, Jeff Leiboff, Dustin Lollar and Lizzie Bruce JonesAudio Podcast & YouTube Video Edited by Dustin Lollar ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀✨ Support Our Social Media & Merch:  https://linktr.ee/RadioLabyrinth
