This month we’re making room for a handful of new programs so we can offer you a wider cross-section of the cultural scene, around the world and close to home. Earth Eats is expanding from 30 minutes to an hour! You can expect the same menu of features—news, recipes, interviews with folks involved in sustainable agriculture and food justice—but the plate is now twice the size. It will remain in the 7 a.m. hour on Saturdays; and we’ll re-air it Sunday afternoons at 1. To accommodate this investment in a signature local program of ours, we’ll be bidding farewell to Living Planet from Deutsche Welle on Saturday mornings. Folktales, which has been airing on Sunday afternoons, will still be available Sundays at 5 on WFIU2. On WFIU2, we will be retiring the 7 p.m. Friday hour of Earth Eats and All Songs Considered, and adding Jazz Night in America, a showcase of contemporary and classic performances hosted by Christian McBride. The Chris Thile program Live from Here, a Saturday evening staple, has ended production. Occupying its two-hour slot at 6 p.m. will be PorchLight with Tom Roznowski and The Thistle & Shamrock. Each of those programs is moving up two hours, as is The Soul Kitchen with Brother William Morris—you now can hear it from 8 to 10 p.m. Joining the Saturday lineup after The Soul Kitchen is a longtime public radio favorite from Chicago, The Midnight Special. Hosted by Marilyn Rea Beyer, it’s a two-hour showcase of new and classic folk and roots music, with some showtunes and comedy routines sprinkled in for variety. And, our roster of evening classical programs is expanding by four! Sylvia McNair’s program Sylvia & Friends is no longer just good company midday Saturdays on WFIU2— we’re adding an encore broadcast Sunday evenings from 8 to 11. Following it is the premiere of Feminine Fusion, a program that spotlights the influence of women c M in classical music—women throughout via Syl history and into today who create, perform, and inspire. The New York Philharmonic will move to 10 p.m. Wednesday after SymphonyCast, as we say so long to Collectors’ Corner. Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center is moving from Thursday evenings to Tuesdays after The Score, and will be followed at 11 p.m. by Classical Guitar Alive, an hour of compelling music and artist interviews. Thursdays will now find Harmonia at an earlier time—8 p.m. —followed by Fiesta! and, at 10, a new addition, Concierto. Concierto is a two-hour survey of music by Latin American and Spanish composers and performers, and is presented in Spanish and English.

Jazz Notes
October 3/4 Jawshing Arthur Liou Digital artist Jawshing Arthur Liou depicts mental and surreal spaces. He has a background in photography, digital media, film, and journalism. His recent projects include a pilgrimage in the sacred mountains in Tibet and a journey through the tsunami-ravaged coastline of Japan. Using sources ranging from landscapes and oil paint to the human body, much of Liou’s work is related to notions of impermanence, human tragedy, and spiritual sanctuary.
October 10/11 Harvey G. Cohen Harvey G. Cohen uses music and film to trace significant themes in American culture and history from the colonial era to the present. His book Duke Ellington’s America (2010) was named one of the best books of the year by the Washington Post. Cohen's latest book, Who's in the Money? The Great Depression Musicals and Hollywood's New Deal (2017), outlines the political, historical, and cultural significance of the Warner Brothers movie musicals during 1933.
October 17/18 Angelina Davydova Angelina Davydova is a freelance journalist who regularly covers climate change, environmental policy at the international and local level, the circular economy, and energy transition topics.

Wukovits is a graduate of the University of Notre Dame and his latest book, Soldiers of a Different Cloth, recounts the experiences of 35 Notre Dame chaplains and missionaries who braved World War II battlefields to bring comfort, faith, and friendship to the soldiers they served.
October 31/November 1 Steven W. Webster Steven W. Webster is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at Indiana University whose research focuses on the nature of political behavior and public opinion within the United States. His book, American Rage: How Anger Shapes Our Politics, results from a series of experiments that show how anger causes citizens to lose trust in the national government and to weaken in their commitment to democratic norms and values.

Christian McBride - Anna Webber/NPR
WFIU is excited to bring aboard NPR’s flagship jazz program Jazz Night in America, hosted by musician Christian McBride. Each week Jazz Night in America explores the music’s rich legacy and vibrant present-day scene, featuring live performances, stories, interviews, and new as well as rare archival recordings. Beginning October 2, you can hear Jazz Night in America every Friday evening at 7 on WFIU2. After Jazz Night in America, you can switch from WFIU2 to WFIU for our locally-produced Friday evening jazz programming, beginning at 8 p.m. Afterglow host Mark Chilla once again offers us a wide range of jazz vocals this month, with programs focusing on blues and ballads master Joe Williams, Vernon Duke’s transition from classical composer to writer of standards, jazz interpretations of pop star Paul Simon, and color themes in popular song. Night Lights pays centennial tributes to multi-instrumentalist and world-jazz pioneer Yusef Lateef as well as pianist, actress, and civil-rights activist Hazel Scott. Other shows focus on the final recordings of jazz greats, music inspired by some of the more notable eccentrics and scenesters that inhabited the 20th-century jazz world, and the life and music of Los Angeles pianist and community activist Horace Tapscott, with commentary from Tapscott biographer Steven Isoardi.

NATIONAL ESTATE PLANNING AWARENESS WEEK
This month on Driving While Black Tuesday, October 13 at 9pm
This feature-length documentary film chronicles the history of African Americans on the road from the 1930s to the late 1960s—a crucial and transformative period in American racial, cultural, and social history. As black Americans navigated the brave new world of the automobile and the highway in the last four decades of Jim Crow America—from the depths of the Depression to the heyday of the Civil Rights movement and beyond— they seized opportunities for mobility and freedom in the American landscape as never before, and confronted challenges and dangers unknown to white drivers and travelers. Meanwhile, across the country, the automobile and the highway were dramatically changing the external and internal geography of America—socially, economically, politically, culturally, and technologically— beyond recognition.

Plant the Seed A few simple steps today will give you peace of mind tomorrow
By preparing an estate plan, you’re safeguarding more than just matters of finances and inheritance, you’re also guiding future health decisions, providing for loved ones, and creating your legacy. A few simple steps today will give you peace of mind tomorrow by ensuring you and your loved ones are well protected.
Based on over a decade of research by acclaimed African American historian Dr. Gretchen Sorin, the film draws on a rich archive of material from the period— including photographs, advertisements, road signs, maps, letters, and legal records—along with riveting oral histories and the on-camera insights of scholars, writers, musicians, artists, religious leaders, and ordinary American travelers. Driving While Black is structured by the emergence, flourishing, and eventual obsolescence of a new genre of travel literature aimed at facilitating black automobile travel during the period; including The Negro Motorist Green Book, which was considered “the bible of black travel during Jim Crow.”
