Land of the Lenape (Pre 1609 inhabitants) Courtesy Museum of the City of New York DUTCH AND ENGLISH PERIOD Supporters receive bonus audio, free merchandise and first access to tickets for upcoming live shows. Read here for more information on where you can find our shows.Īnd finally - we can continue recording the Bowery Boys podcast thanks to the generous support of those on Patreon. And the first four episodes are not available (but those who support us on Patreon have access to episodes #2-4). For ‘rewind’ episodes with updates, they have been included over the original. *In the rare case where we revisited a subject (Flatiron Building, Canal Street) we only included the most recent show. To this day, there are some blatant holes in our historical coverage that we hope to close up in future shows. Viewing our back catalog of podcasts in this fashion, we hope that you can really start seeing the entire history of New York City emerging.

Here’s a new way to experience our old podcasts.īelow is our entire list* of shows, placed in a particular chronological order, based on a critical date in that subject’s history. Greg in the stocks at Colonial Williamsburg, 2017. Tom Meyers in Park Slope, recording our first ever ‘on location’ show in 2015. Thank you, listeners and readers, for helping us celebrate almost four hundred years of history in the past sixteen. We cannot have possibly imagined on that hot June night, wielding only a bad microphone, a new laptop and some reasonably interesting information about a terribly polluted water soure, that would still be doing this, stronger than ever.

(For more information, check out our 15th anniversary show from last year.) That’s right! If our podcast were a person, it could now legally drive in the state of New York. Sixteen years ago (officially on June 19, 2007) we recorded the very first Bowery Boys podcast, appropriately about Canal Street, the street just outside the window of Tom’s apartment on the Lower East Side.
