EPISODE 634: THANK YOU FOR THE HAT
Made of Flecks of Light and Dark
POP CULTURE SPIRIT WOW
Stephen Sondheim died Friday. I’ve spent the weekend working on a piece about him, and at this point I’m a little bit overwhelmed by it all. So I’m just going to post some of my very favorite Sondheim songs.
Whether you know his work or not, I hope you might enjoy them. A lot of who I am and what I write is a direct result of this great man.
