Episode 226 - The Catskill Aqueduct with Professor Kevin Bone

Welcome to episode 226! This week, author Kevin Bone joins me to dive into the incredible story and engineering behind the Catskill Aqueduct—one of the greatest infrastructure projects in New York history. More than 100 years after it was built, this underground marvel still delivers over 500 million gallons of water to New York City every day, requiring remarkably few repairs along the way. I also cover a hiker's mushroom-fueled misadventure in Harriman State Park that ended with an arrest, recap the results of the grueling Manitou's Revenge Ultra, and discuss soon to start construction at the Scutt Road parking lot.
