Urban Legends of NYC w/ Greg Young of The Bowery Boys
NYC has a long history, filled with (unsurprisingly) MANY ghosts. So we called in an expert to tell us about them: Greg from The Bowery Boys discusses his favorite ghost stories and urban legends from over 18 (!!!) years of podcasting about the history of NYC!
Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about or mentions of death, murder, organized crime, child endangerment, kidnapping, ableism, and animal death.
Guest
Greg Young is the co-host and producer of The Bowery Boys, a podcast exploring the rich and sophisticated history of NYC, everything from the arrival of Henry Hudson to the shores of Mannahatta to the arrival of hipsters to the shores of Williamsburg.
