HINT FOR THIS SATURDAY NIGHT’S THEME (6.22.13)
19 JunHINT:
Only two shows left this season. How will I spend the penultimate hour of Turntable For One? Doing card tricks? Demonstrating how to knit a two-stitch twist cable? Handing out summer listening assignments? All of the above? A fourth thing that is a surprise?
Now that I’ve got you at the edge of your seat, be careful not to fall off and hit your head because then you’d miss the show on Saturday night.

HINT FOR THIS SATURDAY NIGHT’S THEME (6.15.13)
12 JunHINT:
I just found out I have an audience that listens to all my shows, in fact, they listen to every word I ever say, and, sadly I’ve been ignoring them — but not this week! To make up for it, I’m dedicating the entire show to them Saturday night!
PROGRAM NOTE:
This Friday night I’ve been invited back to The Night Cafe — believe me, no one is more surprised than I am. However, the host, Will Duchon is taking the night off. (I don’t know about you, but I don’t believe in coincidences.) So I’ll be sitting in for Will on a special, “60s Night At The Night Cafe.” Songs of the 60s, but not the way you remember them. Friday night, 10:00 PM!

29 MayHINT:
I’m throwing a musical party this Saturday night, but before you break out the hats and horns, better check out the menu: sour grapes, bitter aftertastes, and stew in your own juices.
Also I’ll be sitting in with Will Duchon on The Night Cafe this Friday night at 10:00 PM with another hour of jazz vocals.
Talk to you Friday and Saturday Nights!
