BPR Full Show: Wally's Jazz and Not Tinned Fish

Today on Boston Public Radio:

Hurricane Ian has left a trail of devastation. We opened the lines to listeners to ask: Has climate change won? Is it too late for some spots on the coast line, like Florida and Cape Cod?

Lauren Friel and Andrew Brady from Cambridge restaurant Dear Annie discussed their recent success including reviews from the New York Times and Bon Appetit.

Callie Crosley joined us through zoom and discussed the current Corey Lewandowski sexual assault case, an uptick of COVID levels in Massachusetts wastewater, and airlines that charge a premium to keep nearby seats empty. Crosley is the host of GBH’s Under the Radar.

Sue O’Connell from NBC 10 Boston discussed Biden’s recent “Where’s Jackie?” moment, an HIV-positive man in Revere finally able to pursue his dream of joining the Army, and the Lizzo x James Madison collaboration.

James Bennett II discussed Carly Rae Jepsen’s music with a message for the burdened adult, Japanese Breakfast, and Trevor Noah’s exit from the Daily Show after seven years. Bennett is an arts and culture reporter for GBH News.

General Manager of Wally’s Cafe Jazz Club Frank Poindexter and Musicians Noah Preminger & Kevin Harris joined the show to celebrate the reopening of the jazz club. Noah and Kevin’s band Sphere 427 delighted us with some music as well.

We closed the show with a call-in segment, and heard from listeners about their preferences between text messages or the ever more popular voice message.
