The Midlife Mafia podcast with The Voices of Brooklyn

Brooklyn has changed, but for those who grew up there, the memories never really leave. In this episode, we're joined by Christopher Dalton Jr. and Patrick Borriello, hosts of the Voices of Brooklyn podcast, for a trip down memory lane. We talk about growing up in Brooklyn, the neighbourhoods, the characters, the school stories and what life was like before everyone had a phone and a camera ready to capture every embarrassing moment. We also get into how much Brooklyn has changed over the years. Kids today seem to spend less time outside, while growing up back then meant being out of the house, exploring the neighbourhood and making memories with friends. Patrick takes us behind the scenes of his time in the movie industry, including his work on Law & Order and how he first got into acting. We also hear how Patrick and Chris met and how their shared love of Brooklyn eventually brought them together. Along the way, we discuss nostalgia, getting older but still wanting to feel younger, Chris being an old soul and why the past can sometimes feel closer than we think. It's a conversation about growing up, changing times, old friendships and the Brooklyn that will always live in their memories.
