All seasons have its smells. But no season beat summer for the variety of scents, stinks, perfumes, essences and aromas that would fill the air around those Stoops of Atlantis.
After harsh winters, Spring often arrived timidly- but greatly welcomed- around the Stoops of Atlantis.
Lets face it- as a kid- Christmas is about the swag. And some years that swag shined especially bright. Or didn't.
You'd be surprised how many famous folk are kids of Atlantis. Movie stars, singers, musicians, politicians, wise guys - can all call East Harlem their home town.
****NOTE - I reference episode "10 - Making Movies" - it is actually Episode 19!
After a five month hiatus, Mikey D is back and returns to the root of the podcast - colorful stories about the Stoops- in this Jeopardy Game of an Episode!
In the late 1970s - early 1980s video games appeared in Atlantis and lured me off the Stoop. And then came the home computer and this kid from East Harlem found a new purpose in life!
