Episode 172 - Borscht Belt Times with Ron MacCloskey

Welcome to episode 172! Tonight, Tad and I take a trip back in time with filmmaker, comedian, and pop culture historian Ron MacCloskey as he shares vivid and hilarious memories from the golden days of the Borscht Belt. From iconic entertainers to behind-the-scenes stories, Ron brings the Catskills' heyday to life—and proves he’s still very much in step with today’s world. We also cover recent Catskill headlines, including a rescue in Hunter, Leo DuFour’s body being found in the Adirondacks and other local updates around the area. Need a sticker?
