Arthur Avenue Podcast
The Arthur Ave Podcast is about more than bottles — it’s about the Bronx. Hosted by Anthony and JP, we spotlight the people, families, and businesses that make Arthur Avenue what it is: a living, breathing neighborhood built on Italian legacy.
From third-generation auto shops and butchers to winemakers, bakers, and 100 year old delis, every episode shares the stories behind the storefronts. These are the voices that keep tradition alive while shaping the future of the Bronx’s Little Italy.
It’s not just about how a business runs — it’s about the history, the hustle, and the neighborhood pride that fuels it. If you want to know what makes Arthur Avenue tick, you’ll find it here.
Welcome to the Arthur Ave Podcast — where the neighborhood tells its story.
