Welcome to episode 81 of Holly Jolly X'masu! In this episode, I'll be talking about Hiro Tsunoda's 1991 album, “Ballad X'mas.” This was a fun episode to work on. I love Tsunoda's voice, and the non-Christmas songs on his album gave me something a little different to talk about. It also let me discover Zapp's version of “Ooo Baby Baby.” As a native Daytonian, I was surprised to learn a few months ago that Zapp was pretty big in Japan. I was lucky enough to cross paths with Roger Troutman once back in my teens. We were driving past when he was walking out of Troutman Studios. I hollered, “Roger, I want to be your man!” (The song was huge at the time.) He laughed and waved. The fact that he reacted at all was a big thrill for me. As I mentioned in the episode, I would have loved some Christmas music from a 1970s-era Hiro Tsunoda. “Ballad X'mas” is great, but I think an album from 15-20 years earlier would have turned into a Christmas funk classic. Also, as promised, here are a few videos, including Zapp's “Ooo Baby Baby” and Randy Crawford's “Almaz.” Hiro Tsunoda and the Space Band – Mary Jane (1972) Hiro Tsunoda – I Love You (B-side to “Mary Jane”) Hiro Tsunoda and the Space Band from the 1974 One Step Festival Randy Crawford – Almaz Zapp – Ooo Baby Baby (1989) I hope you enjoyed learning about and listening to Hiro Tsunoda. He has a lot of other great music, so you might find yourself going down a rabbit hole on YouTube after checking out the videos. Thanks again to Rocket Brown for introducing me to him. If you get a chance, check out Come Along Radio, where Rocket plays and talks about some of the best music City Pop has to offer. Despite my best efforts, I wasn't quite back on track with my release dates. This was supposed to be my May 11th episode, but instead was pushed back to the 25th. I'm shooting for a Memorial Day release for my next episode, where I talk about Keiichiro Ebihara and the Lobsters' “Blue Christmas – Trumpet Mood Collection” from 1959. It's a fantastic album and a smooth way to start your summer. As always, any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. If have any suggestions, or if you'd like to recommend a song or album for a future episode, drop me a line and let me know. Remember, I've added a button to my Ko-fi page. If you'd like to support me one cup of coffee at a time, a donation is only $3. I've also opened a Redbubble store. I only have a couple designs up, but keep an eye on it as I'll be trying to add more. Half of any proceeds or donations received will be donated to support the people of Ukraine, while the rest will be used to purchase new Japanese Christmas music to review for future episodes. You can also find me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. And if you get a chance, leave me a review on iTunes. Thanks!
Bertha Palmer was the wife of Potter Palmer whose famous Chicago hotel, the Palmer House, was one of the grandest of the Gilded Age. Bertha has been compared to the queen of New York society, Mrs. Astor. However, as my guest, historian Tom Miller shares in this week's show, that comparison minimizes who Bertha Palmer truly was. While both women ran and ruled society in their respective cities, Bertha was in many ways the more complex and deeper character. Among her many accomplishments, she was an astute businesswomen, cared deeply about charity work, rolled up her sleeves to do what needed to be done, assembled a major collection of French Impressionist art, and became one of the first real estate developers of Florida. Join Tom Miller of "Daytonian in Manhattan" and me for a look at this fascinating woman and a look at Chicago's Gilded Age.
TRIGGER WARNINGS: *Sexual Grooming* *Child/Adult Relationship* In this episode, Bridget and KeAnna interview Lex. Lex talked about their healing from sexual grooming, and how therapy and their partner are helping them to overcome the trauma and how they were able to get out of a relationship that began by them being groomed when they were a child. Love, acceptance, and grace allowed Lex to realize the inappropriate nature of their relationship and put them on a journey of healing. Now, Lex is sharing their story to raise awareness and save other young lives. Lex is a proud and life long Daytonian, a queer WOC, working as a full time chemist and a part time DJ. Lex is married, has two dogs and enjoys spending time outside, playing board games and throwing axes. Sharing this experience is important to help others heal and know that they are not alone on this journey.
On today's episode I get to talk to someone who is running to unseat Republican Mike Turner in Ohio's 10th US Congressional District, which includes Dayton. His name is Baxter Stapleton, and he's one of four candidates in the upcoming primaries to be the Democratic candidate in the general election later this year. Baxter is a Centerville high school grad, a filmmaker, and now a Daytonian. Join me as I talk with him about issues ranging from LGBTQ+ rights to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. You can learn more about Baxter's campaign at his website, www.baxterstapleton.com. For information about the upcoming election, including the May 3 primary, visit the Montgomery County Board of Elections at www.montgomery.boe.ohio.gov. Disclaimer: I also want to issue a disclaimer (as I do within the episode) to note that I am definitely on the left when it comes to American politics, so I make no pretext of being impartial. I find as a former teacher and now college lecturer that it makes more sense to be up front and honest about my own beliefs so that I can be as transparent as possible with my students and with my listeners.

In the winter of 1891-1892, a series of slashing attacks - and one murder - took place in the rough streets of the Bowery in Lower Manhattan, barely a stone's throw from the seedy hotel where “Old Shakespeare” was slain only a few months before.

Believe it or not, we've got one more brand new Bowery Boys: New York City History podcast for 2021. Look for it on January 31. But for today we wanted to give you another sampling of our new spin-off podcast calledThe Gilded Gentleman, a look at America's Gilded Age period, hosted by social and culinary historian Carl Raymond. In this new episode, Carl looks at one of the most legendary figures of the period – Caroline Astor, or the Mrs Astor, the ruler and creator of New York's Gilded Age high society in the early 1870s. In collaboration with Southern social climber Ward McAllister, Astor essentially created the rules for who was 'acceptable' in New York social circles. But she's also known for her battles with family members -- most notably with her nephew (and next door neighbor) William Waldorf Astor. What was behind her unusual motivations? And in what unusual way did she decide to cap her legacy at the end of her life? Carl is joined by Tom Miller, creator of the website Daytonian in Manhattan, documenting the history of New York City, one building at a time. Subscribe to the Gilded Gentleman now and you'll get ANOTHER new episode on the life of Murray Hall, a Tammany Hall politician and operator of an employment agency for domestic help in the late 19th century. But Murray had a secret – one that he took to his grave. A remarkable story and one we think will move you.
