As we enter the end of another year---you know, the secular one---I hope you will be tuned in next week for the year end program which will end, I believe, on the proper note for another circle around old Sol.   Let me also add that since I have been doing this program for quite a few years now I hope you feel that we have the proper blend of the old and the new.  Together I hope we are cherishing the older material and appreciating some new discoveries that puts Jewish music and comedy in the present era.   I thank you for your moral and financial support over these years.  Support that benefits us both---we , together, are keeping Yiddiskeit on the air.  WFDU has to be thanked for its generosity in opening up their air space for this and keeping it open at all times.   By the way--go to the www.wfdu.fm website if you want a free bumper sticker  for the tuchus of your car (or yourself) that says just  that---Keeping Yiddishkeit On The Air.

A brief update for something very special----January 6, 2013 we will be having an extended Comedy Corner as we present, exclusively in this area of country, the annual year end (or beginning---anyway you like) program by the CAPITOL STEPS--Politics Takes A Holiday.   A full of hilarity from Washington, DC that should not be missed---we may ask questions.

Comments, queries, requests are always welcome via e mail to wfdutraditions@yahoo.com  or USPS to WFDU/Bill H 1000 River Rd. Teaneck, NJ  07666

Last show for your humble and humbuggy host for this year so in the 4 PM hour I played and talked of my most meaningful musical moments for this year.  There were others that could and should have been there but time constraints precluded that and still left time for the features. 

When I return on January 6 my guest will be Mara Levine and she will be debuting her brand new recording---it is a beaut.

Some faces to put with today's voices----

We start w/ Kate Wolf---who will live forever young and beautiful thanks to You Tube. If you look at the left you will see Nina Gerber---you know the rest of the story if you have listened to the program over the years.

See how many people you recognize in this video---and, of course, Anne Hills--

The tragic events in Connecticut  have been so thoroughly covered by all the news media I thought a respite for some R&R might be needed.  Hence, no mention of this great tragedy---we are, after all, not a "news" station so I assume you tuned in to find some moments of escape and enjoyment in you cultural perogatives---happily provided by the right lace on the left side of the dial---you know the letters---WFDU.  May they be the first that come to mind whern you think of the left side of the now non-existant dials.

As you know next week will be my last one for this year---Ron Olesko will finish out the year w/ his Holiday Hoopla.   I will return on Jan. 5 with my guest--hopefully, Mara Levine.   Next week I will air what I considered my most meaningful musical moments for the year---alliteration required so there it is.

A personal WFDU opinion on programming.   I do hope you are tuned in after Sunday Simcha to a wonderful addition to the station----GHOSTY and his  THE VINTAGE ROCK & POP SHOP.   A program you will love and also the host.

Now---some faces to put with today's voices.

Our annual Hannukah program for, frankly, a minor holiday that is meant to keep up w/ the Jones---they don't celebrate Hannukah.  Interestingly the holiday speaks of food, peace, etc; but it was all about revolution and bloody doings--check out Judith and a few beheadings.   As to the miracle of the oil---true but today if that were to happen it would mean gasoline at 1.50/gallon.   Alevai!!

Some faces to put with today's voices----


The, sadly, late Debbie Friedman in a live concert




We certainly cannot leave you without Hannukah in Santa Monica---no videos of Mr. Lehrer available so we give you the next best thing

Your comments, queries, requests and thoughts are always welcome via e mai to wfdutraditions@yahoo.com or USPS to WFDU/Bill  H 1000 River Rd. Teaneck, NJ  07666

A brief comment or two about some of the items on the list.  Admittedly, you do not get the import of many without the intros but let me just mention a few true standouts in the new music department---Kim/Reggie Harris,  Anne Hills,  and Debra Cowan.   You will, if you listened to the program, know why Loudon Wainwright started the show----a fellow cynic who can sing well about relationships.   Some thematic material, as always, in the mix and if you ever have question about the intent or content just zip off an e-mail---not your fly,,, Please

One last thought.   Great story behind the "story song" for today---you can hear this show archived for 2 weeks at www.wfdu.fm .   The explanation is there in the intro.

Some faces to put with today's voices----
