We meet one of the rising stars in the city, Alex Rivera, aka The Bronxer. He’s part of the driving creative energy coming out of The Bronx as a visual artist and creative, with his photographs gaining wide appeal, his projects at El Fogón and borough hotspots, to his brand Section 8 Entrepreneur.

Alex has a lot of plates spinning the air, and it’s a pleasure to meet someone so focused. He’s got new books coming out in 2020, he curates parties and promotions, and has the must-click Instagram account going. Alex has three photos in 111 Places In The Bronx That You Must Not Miss. His work was just nominated for an Apple Award from the Guides Association For New York City: because he might have photographed Yankee Stadium via a drone. He gives us a fantastic look into his world, so don’t miss this episode.

We record the show at The Lambs, 3 West 51st Street. Founded in 1874, it’s America’s first professional theatrical club (not to be confused with a restaurant). Our theme song is by Big Ed Cody, leader of the Whiskey Wranglers.
