In this AudioFiles episode, we report on environmental advocates’ pushback on a natural pipeline off the south shore of Staten Island that's been given the go-ahead from the NYS DEC. Then, a look at NYC's plan to bring relief to the chronically flood-prone neighborhood of Jewel Streets near the Brooklyn-Queens border. And we hear the story of one New Yorker's endeavor to rehabilitate and rehome red-eared sliders abandoned in NYC to their native habitat in the south.

Audiofiles Presents: What's it like? "Chained to Marriage"
Audiofiles is proud to share an episode of our narrative podcast, "What's it Like?" from reporters Sari Soffer Sukenik and Maja Clasen.
Divorce is seemingly ubiquitous in the U.S. But what happens when divorce is not an option for you in your community? In this episode, we follow Flatbush Girl: a woman on a mission to free women from their unwanted marriages. Her shameless pursuit to upend the systems stacked against Orthodox Jewish women are impressive. But are they sustainable?
Please be advised that this episode contains mentions of domestic abuse that may be difficult for some listeners.
"What's it Like?" is a production of the New York City News Service, from the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. Hosted by Sari Soffer Sukenik. Reported, produced, and sound designed by Sari Soffer Sukenik and Maja Clasen. Edited by Meg Cramer. Studio recording and sound engineering by Chad Bernhard. Special thanks to Curtis Fox, Rebecca Rand, and Caroline Handel for your helpful feedback.
This episode's intro and outro music comes from the song “Hills”, by Mello C. This episode also features portions of the songs: “Post Drone” by Uuriter, “Drone Pine” by Blue Dot Sessions, “Parody” by Crowander, “Camp” by Podington Bear, and “Principles in Action” by David Hilowitz, all sourced from FreeMusicArchive.org. This episode also includes “Victory Fanfare" by “Luis Humanoide", sourced from freesound.org.
Thanks to Holizna for the use of his song "Bus Stop" at the top of the show.
