The Living Past: Echoes and Whispers
Podcast with Amy Shannon
The Living Past: Echoes and Whispers is a storytelling podcast dedicated to the layered soul of New York — its past, its secrets, and its people.
Hosted by Amy Shannon, a narrative historian and lifelong New Yorker, the show journeys through forgotten local histories, unsolved crimes, missing persons, ghost stories, and the lived experiences of everyday residents. Each episode blends research, reflection, and real‑world voices to illuminate the stories that linger in archives, cemeteries, neighborhoods, and memory.
Whether it’s a century‑old mystery, a whispered legend, or the personal story of someone who calls New York home, NY Echoes & Whispers brings these narratives to life with dignity, curiosity, and heart.
It is a place where the past speaks, the present listens, and the unheard finally find their voice.
