Jazz Decades explores the amazing jazz collection of its host Ray Smith. Each week he chooses from his library of over 90,000 titles to bring you the best of early jazz, blues and swing from the 1900’s through the 1930’s. Tune in on Sundays and Mondays at 4pm to hear all the great music! No need to wind up your Victrola, these selections are wonderfully restored and brought to you thanks to the generosity of WGBH, Boston. We’re carrying Jazz Decades thanks to a request from listener John Zimmer (thanks John!). Have a show you’d like to hear on Radio Sausalito? Send me an email jonathan AT radiosausalito DOT org

Radio Sausalito teamed up with the famed George’s Nightclub in San Rafael for a live recording of the band Stompy Jones.

A Different Slant 086: Holiday Bingo
Host John Flavin shares how to play Holiday Bingo, a game derived from John’s reading of the book Quiet, The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking by Susan Cain and of the Wall Street Journal article on Dysfunctional Family Bingo. The game is played like bingo but, instead of numbers in the squares, there are short descriptions of annoying things commonly observed at holiday parties, like adult sweaters with Disney characters on them. John suggests the game is best played by several people but warns of the dangers from both the party host and/or your partner of not keeping the contest confidential.
