New Jersey: home to Trenton’s passive-aggressive “The World Takes” sign, the much-derided Shore, one memorable example of cryptozoology (i.e. the Jersey Devil), the Meadowlands, and legions of fantastic bands. The second edition of Vol.1 Brooklyn’s podcast takes an inside look at the Garden State. Amy Rebecca Klein (of Hilly Eye and Leda, and formerly of Titus Andronicus) talks about the shows she saw and played in her formative years; Maggie Serota, co-founder of Low Times podcast, tells harrowing stories of selling foul merchandise on the Shore; and, in a segment recorded by Ed Champion at our 2011 Civic Pride: New Jersey event,A.N. Devers discusses the hazards of buying a home in Asbury Park.
