Sat. 5 pm ET-A little serendipity this week. I’ve played the music of Greg Reiter, who is a guitarist that I admire. While looking for more of his music, I fat-fingered the entry and found Greg Reitan, who does some very thoughtful piano work. How do I find my music? Sometimes by falling down the manhole. I also have Greg Schmidt, who is not Jon Schmidt of the Piano Guys, but an interesting pianist in his own right. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, P.T. wonders about the meaning of it all and decides he doesn’t have the right dictionary. Join us.01/26/2019
Fri. 12:06 pm ET Starting with Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein in 1818, literature has examined science rather critically. Many books portray experiments that go wrong and the unfortunate series of events that follow the failure, many of which have been made into films. [details below] This week, Leigh Rich and P.T. Bridgeport examine the reasons for these failures: flawed results, scientific hubris, misuse, public paranoia, and others. This week, Leigh and P.T. will focus on The Birthmark, and bring in other works too. Join us. Ed

Fri. 11am. ET -Sometimes. a new slant on a song or a new situation for a song propels it onto the charts – or reintroduces it. This week we look at covers that made a big impact.
