In New York, pizza is not just food - it's part of the city's DNA. And that story runs deep in Brooklyn where working class immigrant neighborhoods helped shape the pizza we know today.

As an Albanian raised in Staten Island, pizza was Ilir's destiny.

What's Sherlock Holmes doing in New York's most Fenian pub?That's the intrigue at the heart of Terror From America: A Sherlock HolmesAdventure, the debut novel from journalist and historian Terry Golway, and thequestion Irish Stew podcast cohosts Martin Nutty and John Lee set out to answerbefore a packed, raucous house at Ernie O'Malley's on the first of June.A Staten Island native with a Ph.D. in U.S. history from Rutgers and two decadesof political reporting at the New York Observer, Golway has written more than adozen acclaimed works of nonfiction. But fiction, he tells us, unlocks somethingfacts alone cannot: "You can learn as much about history through a novel as youcan in a history book."His novel imagines Britain dispatching the world's greatest detective to infiltratethe Irish American revolutionary underground of 1885 New York, a missionrooted in a real and largely forgotten chapter of history. "The original crime isbased on something that actually happened," Golway explains. "Several IrishAmericans were going to try to blow up London Bridge…instead they blewthemselves up."Holmes's investigation pulls him into the orbit of real historical figures, nonemore compelling than John Devoy. In a dramatic reading brought brilliantly tolife by actor Mick Mellamphy, Devoy records in his diary what Charles Parnellhad told him when they met: "The American people are now the arbiters of theIrish question,” to which Devoy replied, "I almost had tears in my eyes when Iheard those words. That was exactly what we in New York wished to be, thearbiters of the Irish question."And what does Holmes make of the Fenians he encounters? After infiltrating NewYork's Irish revolutionary underground as an itinerant fiddler at Clan na Gaelgatherings, Sherlock observed, "The Fenians who inhabit the back rooms of NewYork's clubhouses and taverns bear little resemblance to the crude caricaturesportrayed in some less reputable newspapers. Formidable not because of theircapacity for mayhem, but because of the power they yield over the production ofmemories."Fiddler Eileen McLain provided the evening's musical accents while MickMellamphy served as producer. Past Irish Stew guests Peter Quinn, Larry Kirwan,and Maura Clare were in the house as were Black 47 co-founder Chris Byrne andIrish American Writers & Artists president Liza Engesser.LINKSTERRY GOLWAYWebsiteSubstack: ObserverLinkedInBook: Terror From AmericaAmazon: Terror From AmericaERNIE O'MALLEY'SWebsiteIRISH STEW LINKSWebsite Home PageFacebookInstagramLinkedInMedia Partner: IrishCentralEpisode Details: Season 8, Episode 19; Total Episode Count: 160Send us Fan Mail

Gen. George Washington returned to New York City from a visit to Philadelphia to consult with the Continental Congress. On June 7, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia introduced a resolution to Congress: "Resolved, that these united colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved." Concerned about the strength of Loyalist sentiment, the provincial congress in New York advised its delegates in Philadelphia to abstain from voting on the resolution, which was tabled until July 2. On June 28, a five-man drafting committee in Philadelphia asked Thomas Jefferson to present the Declaration of Independence for debate. It was read aloud and tabled. On June 30, British Maj. Gen. William Howe and his 9,000 troops began disembarking on Staten Island. The case against Fanny Hay, 8, accused of stealing a breast pin from Mrs. Butterfass, was dismissed by Justice Coe because he felt the girl did not understand the nature of an oath. The Cold Spring Recorder's editor called it "a sad commentary on our Christian institutions that this child did not know how to read, was ignorant of the sin of and the penalty for lying or stealing; had not been taught that there was any future state, that she had an immortal soul; or that there was a Supreme Ruler, the source of all things and the judge of mankind!" A new street near the depot, Railroad Avenue, was completed; Stone Street was furnished with a paved gutter on its west side; and a "great improvement" was made to Kemble Avenue on the slope south of the Rock Street corner. The Recorder editor noted complaints about a Putnam Valley man who, once or twice a week, left his team of horses in the heat near the post office for hours without food or drink. James Finnin of Garden Street was working in the boiler shop at the West Point Foundry when a piece of steel from his hammer pierced an artery in his left wrist. The bleeding was stopped with difficulty by compression with a handkerchief. Assisted by a comrade, Finnin walked to Dr. Murdock's office on Fair Street. A company of Republicans visited Philipstown on a Saturday night to congratulate Rep. William Wheeler, who had been nominated to be the vice-presidential candidate alongside Rutherford Hayes in the 1876 election. Wheeler was staying with his brother-in-law, Henry Belcher, at Garrison's Landing. About 11 p.m. on a Saturday, an intoxicated laborer, said to be employed at the Garrison quarry, stumbled down Main Street. He was warned that the dock was unlit and dangerous, but several bystanders soon heard the splash. Jerry Delany jumped in after him, and a boat was rowed to the rescue. Because the cadets would be in Philadelphia for the Fourth of July centennial, the West Point fireworks were shot off on a Wednesday night in mid-June. Soon after 1 p.m. on a Monday, four young men marched up Main Street wearing what appeared to be baseball uniforms with knapsacks and tin drinking cups. "No one seemed to know where they came nor what place was their destination," The Recorder observed. Three young men from a New York canoe club drew a crowd when they stopped at the wharf on a Sunday afternoon wearing strange outfits. They left at 7 p.m., saying they planned to travel to Poughkeepsie, about 22 miles. The trip took longer than expected, as the Poughkeepsie News reported the men didn't arrive until Monday night and immediately booked hotel rooms. Workers excavated the rocky ground near the District 3 schoolhouse to install a much-needed outhouse. The flagging stones arrived for an "experimental" sidewalk between Kemble Avenue and Furnace Street. The Recorder said a newly constructed railroad fence that followed the rocks and curves "reminds one of the Great Wall of China." At 10 a.m. on a Friday morning, a crowd on Market Street armed with sticks, stones ...
With the Knicks closing in on a championship, Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber examine whether the Spurs have any realistic path back into the series. The conversation centers on San Antonio's belief that it has controlled its own fate, while Evan and Tiki push back on the idea that the Knicks have not earned command. Evan and Tiki also dig into what a Knicks title would mean for the New York sports drought, hear from a Spurs fan living in Staten Island, and debate Ben Stiller's status as a true Knicks fan after he admits he gets celebrity tickets. It is a mix of title anxiety, fan identity, and the strange emotions that come when a long awaited parade feels close.

KNICKS IN FIVE BABY!!!!!!!!!!Side note, it's always funny to me that we say "Knicks in Game #" which means we count UPwards to 7 when we're counting DOWN to the title... Does that make sense or am I just super neurodivergent on this one?Today's episode is all about defining what a New Yorker is. With all eyes on our city from Mayor Mamdani's election to NBA Playoffs to J Lo's recent Subway Takes video with Kareem, the age old question has surfaced once more. What does it really take to be a New Yorker? Do you have to be a native New Yorker? Are there exceptions? What if you spend 60+ adult years here till death and never leave? How much of our personalities and mindset are shaped by childhood where we grew up versus the place we choose to immerse ourselves and evolve in? Why is this such a touchy subject and something that is almost only unique to New York City? And what about that little forgotten Staten Island, are they as "New York" as the other boroughs or is the rumor true that they make up more of the Jersey shore stereotype than actual Jersey folks? What is the obsession with NYC anyways? Or is this all a study in anthropology and tribalism? Grab a snack and join me for probably one of my most controversial episodes yet. Be sure to stay till the end when I boldly give my personal opinion after reviewing the opinions of both NY born and bred strangers and friends in my life.& don't forget, it really is New York or nowhere.

The All Local Afternoon Update for Tuesday, June 9th,2026
On November 13, 2004, Russell Tyrone Jones — the wildly unpredictable rapper known as Ol' Dirty Bastard whose unfiltered charisma and singular voice helped define the Wu-Tang Clan's rise from Staten Island streets to hip-hop immortality — died from an accidental drug overdose in New York City at the age of 35. A founding member of the influential rap group, ODB brought a chaotic brilliance to the Wu-Tang's mythology, blending raw humor, emotional vulnerability, and magnetic unpredictability into a persona unlike anything rap had seen before. He embodied both the creative freedom and personal turmoil that often accompanied hip-hop's explosive growth in the 1990s. His death ended one of the genre's most singular and uncompromising voices, leaving behind a legacy defined as much by his cultural impact as by the untamed artistry that made him impossible to ignore.

When Zohran Mamdani ran for mayor, he promised to reduce the NYPD's role in responding to issues like mental health crises and homelessness while investing in civilian alternatives. Six months into his administration, the mayor is planning to add hundreds of police officers, while Mamdani's proposed Department of Community Safety remains far smaller than what he campaigned on. WNYC and Gothamist reporter Elizabeth Kim explains how the mayor's approach to policing has evolved, why some supporters are frustrated, and what the shift could mean for public safety and politics in New York City.

Show Notes: In this episode of the GoNOMAD Travel Podcast, Max shares his lifelong affection for ferries — the working boats that move commuters, islanders, day‑trippers, and football fans with the same steady indifference. Ferries don't pamper or preen, but they offer something better: a front‑row seat to the water and the most democratic view in travel. Whether you drive a G‑wagon or a beat‑up Volvo, everyone waits in the same line for the same ramp to drop.Max reflects on the magic of that first engine shudder as the boat pulls away from the dock, the wind on deck, and the shared horizon that briefly unites a crowd of strangers. No TSA, no overhead bins, no seat assignments — just the shoreline sliding by and the slow reveal of a destination coming into focus.This episode also explores the explosion of ferry service across New England and beyond. On Cape Cod, the Steamship Authority is preparing to open its long‑awaited new terminal in Woods Hole, a modern stone‑and‑glass gateway to Martha's Vineyard. The arrival of the M/V Monomoy marks another milestone, bringing a quieter, larger, more reliable freight vessel into service.Boston's ferry network is growing fast, with new weekend service from Lynn, expanded Winthrop and Quincy routes, and system‑wide contactless payment. The MBTA's new F‑10 line launches this June, connecting North Station to the Aquarium, the Seaport, and Logan Airport for just $2.46 each way — a rare moment of true transit progress on the waterfront.Amesbury is preparing a small‑vessel shuttle on the Merrimack River for 2026, linking its waterfront to downtown Newburyport with quick, car‑free hops designed to ease summer traffic. And in New Jersey, Seastreak is running special Hudson River trips to West Point for Army football games — a floating tailgate party complete with a bar, snacks, and big‑screen TVs.New York City is expanding too, with a brand‑new Staten Island–to–Brooklyn route, the first passenger ferry to make that crossing since 1964. Commuters are already embracing the traffic‑free ride and the chance to start and end their day on the water.Through all these stories, Max returns to the same truth: ferries are the great equalizer. Once you're on board, you're just another traveler watching the horizon. And that's why he keeps coming back.CreditsWritten and narrated by Max Hartshorne, Editor of GoNOMAD Travel.

Broadcasting straight from New York City, we sit down with beauty influencer, hairstylist, educator, and salon owner Melanie Hasson for one of the funniest, most relatable, and unexpectedly emotional episodes of Undressed yet. What starts with jokes about Melanie's flawless makeup, Irish roots, and "church lady" middle name quickly turns into a fascinating conversation about chasing your dreams when nobody believes in you. Melanie opens up about defying family expectations, skipping the traditional college path, and following her passion into the beauty industry despite being told it wasn't a "real career." We dive deep into how she transformed her hairstyling business through social media, revealing the exact moment her content exploded online. From a viral hair transformation that earned more than 11 million views to rescuing a TikTok user's hair disaster in an eight-hour color correction marathon, Melanie shares the secrets behind building a loyal audience by showcasing authenticity instead of perfection. The conversation takes a hilarious turn as we compare hairstylists to fashion designers, debate terrible haircuts, discuss difficult clients, and uncover why the best creatives aren't afraid to tell people "no." Melanie also reveals how opening her own salon, Revival in Staten Island, changed her career trajectory and inspired her mission to educate the next generation of beauty professionals. Then comes the Armenian Coffee Reading. What Pol uncovers leaves Melanie stunned. The coffee reveals a major past relationship, an almost-engagement, a heartbreak she thought she'd already healed from, and a mysterious item she left behind when she walked away from a man she once loved. The reading exposes family interference, financial priorities that changed everything, and a piece of herself that may still be waiting to be reclaimed. As the reading unfolds, Pol predicts that someone new is already interested in Melanie, but she's too focused on business to let love in. He also identifies a major career expansion she's been considering but hasn't fully committed to yet. Melanie confirms that she's been feeling incomplete despite reaching many of her professional goals and reveals her dream of creating online education programs to help hairstylists worldwide. Filled with laughs, career advice, vulnerable relationship confessions, entrepreneurial inspiration, and one of the most accurate coffee readings we've seen in a long time, this episode proves that success isn't just about building a business—it's about finding harmony between your ambition, your heart, and the pieces of yourself you've left behind. Will Melanie ever recover the mystery item from her past? Will she finally open the door to new love? And could online education become the next chapter in her rapidly growing empire? You'll have to listen and find out.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! La historia de la técnica está sembrada de inventores olvidados cuyas creaciones seguimos usando, aunque nadie los recuerde con calles, placas ni estatuas. El caso más conocido es el del teléfono. Todos atribuyen su paternidad a Alexander Graham Bell, que patentó el aparato el 7 de marzo de 1876, pero Antonio Meucci ya había registrado un aviso previo en 1871 para su «telégrafo parlante», un prototipo que puso a funcionar con éxito en su casa de Staten Island y con el que se comunicaba con su esposa inválida. Meucci perdió la prioridad por una nimiedad, los 10 dólares que no pudo pagar para renovar el aviso y convertirlo en una patente. Algo parecido ocurrió con el alambre de espino. Dabb, Smith y Hunt patentaron una serie de diseños en 1867, pero fue Joseph Glidden quien, en 1874, logró fabricarlo en masa adaptando un molinillo de café, fundó la Barb Fence Co. y amasó una fortuna. Su ejemplo demuestra que no basta con tener la idea, también hace falta capital y capacidad industrial para triunfar. La máquina de coser repite el mismo patrón. Walter Hunt la concibió en 1833, pero no la patentó, en parte porque su hija, una ludita, temía por su empleo de costurera. Años después, Elias Howe patentó su propia versión que intentó vender en Inglaterra. No lo consiguió, pero al regresar a EEUU comprobó como le habían robado la patente. Ganó en los tribunales la llamada «Guerra de las máquinas de coser» contra Isaac Singer y el propio Hunt. Howe se hizo rico y le terminaron dedicando un estatua, sellos con su efigie y hasta calles con su nombre. El destornillador de estrella es otro de esos casos en los que el verdadero inventor se ha olvidado. John Thompson lo patentó en 1933, pero cedió los derechos a Henry Phillips, que se enriqueció con los royalties y prestó su nombre al invento. De Thompson apenas sabemos que era mecánico y que murió en 1940, condenado al anonimato pese a haber ideado algo que todos tenemos en casa.

This one goes deep. "Into the Mystic" first aired in February 2014, and it brings together three accounts of the uncanny from three storytellers who had no map for what they were experiencing. Christine Lee, an Episcopal priest, has spent years navigating the gap between the faith she teaches and the faith she actually feels. When a parishioner with a seriously injured knee agrees to be prayed over, Christine finds herself in the stairwell of her church, watching something she cannot explain. (Content note: emotional abuse, child psychological abuse) Lulu grew up in 1970s Pittsburgh with a mother who was cruel and checked out. That summer, a neighbor's adult son with schizophrenia becomes her unlikely companion and proceeds to fill her head with detailed, terrifying visions of the Rapture, the Antichrist, and the Tribulation. Jen Kwok is with her then-fiancé's family on Staten Island when his father collapses from a heart attack on Christmas Eve. The days that follow are brutal, and something extraordinary happens on the bus ride back to the city.

Megan Gaul, a weight loss coach from Staten Island, discusses her journey and approach to helping women over 30 with 200 pounds or more achieve their weight loss goals. With a background in education, Megan emphasizes the behavioral aspects of weight loss, drawing from her own 100-pound weight loss in 2018. She highlights common mental barriers like unstructured weekends and the "it shouldn't be hard" mindset. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/magan-gaul Highlights from today's episode include: Megan states weekends with no structure often derail weekday progress. Megan explains that long-term weight loss is won or lost in the mind, not the diet. Manon talks about Naturopathic doctors aren't automatically coaches—and patients often expect both. ABOUT MEGAN GAUL: Megan is a weight loss coach from Staten Island. Her mission is to support women age 30 and up, 200 lbs and up, achieve their weight-loss goals without shrinking their lives. She came to this mission through her own 100-lb weight loss in 2018, where she discovered food freedom, healthier emotional boundaries, self-trust, and a richer life. She's now in her 5th year of business, and she and her clients focus on small habit-change, self-compassion, and authenticity. Core purpose/passion: I'm most passionate about helping women live more in-tune with what they want. So many of us live in fear for a huge percentage of our adult lives. We get stuck in people-pleasing, anxiety, and making choices only to get away from what we dislike. I want more women to feel awesome about making choices to go TOWARDS what they desire.
