Whether you are a regular listener or tonight is your first night, don't miss Sleepytime with Grandpa D (and Mickey D).

We will feature two new books: "The Football Bully by Charles Hellman" (www.luckysports.net) and Joan Shaddox-Isom's "The First Starry Night" about a young fictional neighbor of Vincent Van Gogh.

Great music from Ritchie Valens, Stan Getz, Randy Newman, JT, Rachel Ries and many more.

Great things are happening with Sleepy Time.

Tune in tonight and listen to my interview with Shadoe Stevens, announcer for the "Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" on CBS and one of the great voices of radio. When Casey Kasem left the show "American Top Forty", Shadoe became the new host for the next 6 years. During this time, it became the most successful and widely syndicated radio show in the world. It was broadcast in 120 countries to an estimated 1 billion listeners every week. His voice became one of the most recognizable voices in the world.

Now he's finally made it on KRUU-FM. Seriously, I found his book "The Big Galoot" (www.buygoodbook.com) and loved it and he was so kind and generous, he was happy to do an interview with us.

Listen tonight to "The Big Galoot" starting at 8pm.

Greetings everyone from Monica and Caroline.

We'd love to have you listen in this Friday from 1 to 2 pm or the following Monday from 8 - 9 am for a preview (or post-view as the case may be) of Tony Ellis' and Nynke Passi's Poems of Wonderment and Transcendence, followed by a fun interview with Van Buren High School writing teacher Richard Incorvia and his students.

Tony and Nynke are treating Fairfield to a reading of their poems Friday March 9 at 8 pm at Revelations.  Tony was a most delightful guest on Writers' Voices the first week of January, so we are happy to have him back for this encore.

Richard Incorvia's class just finished a project where they posted online book reviews based solely on  the book's cover.  Check out www.judgeabookbyitscover.org for these students' creative takes on books from authors ranging from Charles Dickens to Steven King.

For a brief hint of Fridays to come:   read more »
