Homer, Junkersfeld and HQ on WPIX
It was a BHB fiercefest on Henry St., as reporter Emily Frances interviewed us, along with other locals and a group of tourists from Argentina about the New York accent. I’d like to think they were profiling me about my accent documentary, but I’m sure this was all just a ruse to get to media […]
Eddie the Eagle: Schvitzing for the News
Mascots are awesome. Always. Our Karl Junkersfeld (not a mascot…yet) meets the Brooklyn Eagle’s mascot Eddie the Eagle on Henry Street.

Mr. Junkersfeld to the Rescue of Historic Brownstone
This morning while walking on Pierrepont Place, BHB’s Karl Junkersfeld noticed that there was flooding at historic No. 2 Pierrepont Place. He enlisted the help of a passerby to call 311 and alert them of the situation. A neighbor called the owners. Our Claude Scales adds: This afternoon I looked out my window and saw […]
Mr. Junkersfeld’s Take on the Whitman Festival
Mr. J. arrived at Pier 1 for Thursday’s Whitman event before I did, and saw some of the earlier acts. Clearly underwhelmed, he went to video some skilled piano players further north on the pier.
