Podcast: The Atlas Obscura PodcastPublished On: Mon Oct 05 2026
Description: Today, with the help of Ben Naddaff-Hafrey from Revisionist History, we’re going to Fresh Kills in Staten Island: a pile of trash that grew so tall and so vast, that it inspired a secession movement and changed the people who grew up beside it. Emily Forman produced this episode. Be sure to check out Ben’s series The Staten Island Problem on the Revisionist History podcast. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
