We'll see how faithful I can be to this intention, but I'd like to use this
space to periodically recommend some radio programs that I particularly
appreciate and enjoy.

Late Date - RTE Radio 1
One program that seems especially suited to the late afternoon or after dinner
hours in North American evenings in winter (especially where the winters are
cold) is Late Date, broadcast in Ireland and streamed worldwide on RTE Radio 1.
Alf McCarthy, on weeknights, and Lillian Smith, on weekends, weave an eclectic
mix of music that winds up the day in Ireland, but draws a loyal international
audience whatever the time of day it may be for the listener. One can tell
that the program has this worldwide appeal from the messages and dedications
from listeners in Ireland and all over the world that are read out by Alf and
Lillian amidst the always attractive selections of lighter pop, rock, roots,
country, bluegrass, folk and traditional music that really set a relaxed,
contented mood. It's a particularly friendly, light-hearted program that can
be enjoyed in the kitchen cleaning up, reading a book or newspaper or just
sitting in the dark next to the fire. This is one of my pe!
rsonal, perennial favorites and I heartily commend it to you for your
listening pleasure. Late Date originates--live every night--from RTE's Cork
studios in Ireland.
