Fri. 12:06 pm. To start the new season, Leigh Rich and P. T. Bridgeport discuss the just-completed Hanukkah season, with expert help and a story by Isaac Peretz. The Festival of Lights goes back to 100+ years before Christ, when the Seleucid emperor Antiochus IV made a grave political miscalculation. A. E. Houseman tells us he died old, but what did he do before that, and why has it echoed through history to this day? P. T. Bridgeport creates a mare’s nest of literature, culture, history, and poetry, and Leigh Rich straightens it all out for you. Plus, Leigh and P.T. look at literature worth giving as Christmas presents.12/14/2018
