The river of time flows on as our sturdy yet terminal transport is like any raft, a fragile one as our bindings become untethered. Let’s tip our hats and remember those who, over the past century, have contributed to American culture. This morning’s show is about the performers, the songwriters, the session musicians, and those behind the scenes who made a lasting contribution. We thank them as 2022 comes to a close. Tune in for a comprehensive and reflective show, our final Deeper Roots show of 2022, as we look ahead to the new year that is filled with so much promise.
