In the late 1980s, WFAN was on the rise as the first all-sports radio station in the country. They brought a fast-paced, rowdy style to the air, epitomized by the likes of Don Imus, Steve Somers, and Mike Francesa. At the same time the New York Islanders, years past their glory days and playing in an aging barn of a stadium, found themselves on the wrong end of WFAN's jokes. Imus, Somers, and Francesa mocked the team and the Nassau Coliseum mercilessly. On today's episode, Queens native and media historian Nick Hirshon describes his research into this moment in sports and communication history. We discuss the rise of WFAN, the struggles of the Islanders, and the importance of recovering radio (and Long Island) history.

December 3, 2018 - In this episode, our time machine turns Zamboni and hits the ice for the greatest fanned shot in sports marketing history, when the New York Islanders -- a decade removed from their four-in-a-row Stanley Cup dynasty of the early '80s -- chose a new mascot that resembled nothing so much as frozen food pitchman The Gorton's Fisherman. Joining us to do color commentary is our friend Nicholas Hirshon who brings us We Want Fish Sticks: The Bizarre and Infamous Rebranding of the New York Islanders. We last heard from Nick when he invited me to conduct a live interview at the Joint Journalism and Communication History Conference at NYU's Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute. Our guest that day was Ephemeral New York's Esther Crain who chatted with us about her book, The Gilded Age in New York, 1870-1910. Nick Hirshon is assistant professor of communication at William Paterson University and a former reporter for the New York Daily News. You've seen his work in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and the Hockey News. His previous books are Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum -- the arena where the Islanders built that dynasty -- and Forest Hills, about his Long Island hometown, with a forward by actor Ray Romano. Visit him online at NickHirshon.com, @NickHirshon on Twitter and Instagram, or Facebook.com/NHirshon.

We are back with another episode, Episode 15 - and this time we sat down for a chat with the Author of the soon-to-be-released book "We Want Fishsticks", Nick Hirshon. Before I get into the book talk, I offer a rundown of all the games over the Thanksgiving break and some hard hitting analysis as always. I got pretty amped up this week, as the Islanders powerplay is fair to middling - to say the least. Nick isn't just an author, he's a college professor who wrote his college thesis on - the Islanders, but he's also obviously a huge New York Islanders fan. I reached out to Nick after seeing some promo work on his book via Twitter and we got to talking. Obviously, I invited him here and thankfully he obliged. Like all my guests, we talked about current and past Islanders related topics, the vintage Fisherman jersey we have all come to know and love (well, some of us anyway) and even about arenas and ownership. It was a conversation I thoroughly enjoyed and as it turned out, I learned quite a bit about a few things. Did you know that the fisherman on the crest is modeled after one of the Baymen out here in East Hampton? I didn't know that. In fact, Nick and I talked about all that after recording, in an unfortunate twist of fate - because I am related to one of the oldest fishing families on the east end. Nick did a lot of the research for his book, and the fishermen - right here in my local library. He will be out here again in January for a book signing and we have plans to meet up in person. I'm looking forward to it. Another quick coincidence - the Islanders, today actually, posted that the fisherman jersey is available for purchase and customization RIGHT NOW via their online store. It's something I will be jumping on as well. Fashion comes in

March 26, 2018 - It's a special episode, recorded live on the campus of New York University at the Joint Journalism and Communication History Conference, co-sponsored by the American Journalism Historians Association and the History Division of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication. The spot at No. 20 Bowery is in sight of the Cooper Union where Abraham Lincoln gave the 1860 speech that launched him into the presidency, and steps from 114 Bowery, where Steve Brodie bragged about jumping off the Brooklyn Bridge. It's also just a few blocks from Manhattan's oldest bar, McSorley's Old Ale House, familiar to those of you who enjoyed my chat with Rafe Batholomew on his memoir Two and Two: McSorley's, My Dad, and Me. Joining me at NYU is of my all-time favorite time-travelers, Esther Crain, the great and powerful Oz behind the wildly popular blog, Ephemeral New York, which runs under the tagline: "Chronicling an ever-changing city through faded and forgotten artifacts." Esther is also the author of 2014's New York City in 3D In The Gilded Age, a box set that not only offered a book with Esther's sharp writing and rare images compiled by the New-York Historical Society, but also a Stereoscopic Viewer to bring the turn of the last century to life in three dimensions. Esther has spent 15 years writing and editing for top consumer magazines and health/lifestyle websites including Cosmopolitan, Self, Shape, Glamour, Women's Health, and Health magazines. Now she's back on our bookshelf with The Gilded Age in New York, 1870-1910. Visit her blog at EphemeralNewYork.Wordpress.com, where you can sign up for emails of each new article she posts. You can also follow her @EphemeralNY on Twitter or like her on Facebook page. Special thanks for this installment goes to Nick Hirshon of William Paterson University and Pamela Walck of Duquesne University for inviting us to close out the JJCHC.
