My Little Falls (The Creative Outpost) creates a lot of monthly content besides the stories you read here, including audio, video, and even live-streamed events. Where do you find all of this?
On the MyLittleFalls.com website, as each show comes out, we create a small story to bring attention to it. However, the best way to keep up with everything is to Subscribe to the Studio 25 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.
It’s your one-stop destination for regional podcasts catering to various interests and passions. We discuss the news, sports, books, religion, music, entertainment, and fantasy football.
From the end of October through November, it was a busy period for shows. Here are just a few that we can highlight.
Ralph Renzuli was back with another episode of The Inside View, interviewing Louis Baum and Peggy Romano about the Holy Family Parish stained glass windows.
The Herkimer County Legislature established the Herkimer County Land Bank earlier this year, so Ralph invited Michael Edwards, the agency’s executive director, to his next episode.
Ralph stayed busy because he brought back the show Through My Eyes, which had been produced by The Creative Outpost and filmed at the Little Falls Library in the China room. Thirteen episodes were completed before the program was shuttered, but that all changed last month when a new episode was recorded at the new Studio 25 location in Canal Place.
Initially, it was only Little Falls Vets, but he thought if someone was willing to do it, why not Ilion, Mohawk, Herkimer, Dolgeville, Fort Plain, or Canajoharie? “Anyone willing to do it,” he stated.
Renzulli says he intends to expand it to any Veteran from World War II through Afghanistan. “I don’t know how many people we have around here who have participated in those wars, but there have to be quite a few.”
Steve Cully’s Festivus of Sports Show focused on the NFL and College football throughout the month, while Tiffany Talk, with Tiffany Rutkowski, featured Laurie Britton from BUG Country Radio.
Scott Kinville returned to the mic with his CNY Hockey Report, highlighting the action in Central New York. He had Chris Sugar from DIII Hockey News, Morrisville Women’s Hockey Head Coach John Briggs, the always popular Gary Heenan, head Coach of the #3 Utica Pioneers Men’s Hockey team, and the owner of the Syracuse Crunch, Howard Dolgon.
Not to be left behind, Dave Warner had several episodes of Small Town Life. At the end of October, William L. Kidder, who had just completed the book Defending Fort Stanwix, told the story of the New York Frontier during the American Revolution on the show.
In Episode 29, the legendary Ray Lenarcic was the guest. He covered a lot of ground, discussing the Furnace Street gang, Gram Lorraine, Operation Candy Cane, the Cookie Corps, the Pumpkin Man coloring contest, area food pantries, and more.
The next involved yet another author. Vincent Palmieri discussed his latest book, ‘The King of Orchard Street.’ It is a story about six men in Frankfort, New York, over three generations and across the decades of the 40s, 50s, and 60s. Due to the passing of time, these six men’s lives intersected to varying degrees, but their daily living experiences over thirty-plus years never varied. It’s truly about Small Town Life.
Then there was Episode 31. You may not have heard of him, but Anthony Constantino has been in the news lately, and it’s not for his stand-up comedy routine, his boxing prowess, or his role as CEO of Sticker Mule in Amsterdam.
He hit the national spotlight when he was involved in a legal battle with the Mayor of Amsterdam over a sign he placed on top of his building.
Now, Constantino has announced his intention to run for the 21st Congressional District seat, which Congresswoman Elise Stefanik will vacate when she becomes Ambassador to the United Nations. Stefanik’s district covers all of Herkimer County.
The interview covers his childhood, background, company, and, as we said during the show, everything from stickers to missile defense.
Finally, in Episode 32, Mohawk Valley Diamond Dawgs team owner Travis Heiser updates the team’s progress for the upcoming season, and guest Chris Nellis discusses the host family program.
During the summer of 2025, from approximately May 29th through August 1st, around 40 young men will move to the Mohawk Valley to play for the Mohawk Valley DiamondDawgs, a long-standing tradition.
Hosting players gives them a sense of normalcy in a new area. Players become more than just guests; they become part of the family.
