Untapped New York's "Take the 5" Podcast Returns

The Untapped New York team is excited to revive our weekly show, Take the 5! In each short episode, Michelle Young (Founder), Nicole Saraniero (Editor + Director of Events), and Justin Rivers (Chief Experience Officer) will discuss all of the timely, weird, wacky, and fun current events we covered over the week. We’ll also discuss which upcoming Untapped New York events we’re most excited about in the week ahead. To close each episode, Justin will reveal a fun fact from New York City history, often pulling from An Almanac of New York City for the Year 2025.

This week, we chat about a Wonka-inspired candy shop in Brooklyn, the chaos of Washington Square Park's Timothée Chalamet lookalike contest, why this year's Rockefeller Center Tree is so special, and more. We also call for your help to learn about a mysterious subway map in Grand Central Terminal and Justin shares a fun fact about New York baseball!
