Nothing but class--an hour with one of the smoothest singers of the 1960s:  Matt Monro as he does Broadway tunes from My Fair Lady, Golden Boy, Cats, and many more.

Cole Porter and George S. Kaufman teamed up to bring Billy Wilder's "Ninotchka" to the musical stage in 1955; here's a cornucopia of songs, featuring Fred Astaire, Ella Fitzgerald, Don Ameche, Bobby Short, and more.

It's the beginning of our 15th year on the air, so let's share it with some of the performers who always make me happy: Idina Menzel, Barbara Harris, Eddie Cantor, Alfred Drake, Pearl Bailey, André De Shields and so many more.

Consider this a round of Bromo-Seltzers to bring you back to real life after a busy set of holidays; songs about drinks and their aftermath from Tammy Grimes, Jackie Gleason, Patti LuPone, and more.

We remember the vast possibilities of the giants of the musical stage who left us in 2025: Linda Lavin, Tom Lehrer, Cleo Laine, Charles Strouse and more.

What better way to celebrate 2025 than on the air with the Broadway performer who made it her favorite year: Jasmine Amy Rogers. She joins us for classic songs for the holidays by Nat "King"Cole, the Jackson 5, Eddie Cantor and of course some Boop!
