Today’s programs on WNHH radio explore how New Haveners can be doing a better job of being healthy, delve into the history of upcoming events, review the week’s news with a fine-toothed comb, and more.
It’s pundit Friday! On “Dateline New Haven,” Babz Rawls-Ivy and Joe Ugly join host Paul Bass to run down the City Hall soap opera, Bill Clinton & vegan pizza, the Yale tax controversy — and Prince, featuring some Joe Ugly karaoke.

“LoveBabz LoveTalk” host Babz Rawls-Ivy gets back to the root of it — literally — with herbalist and life coach Rachel Heerema. The two discuss natural remedies, self-love, politics, “where the money goes” in New Haven, and how relationships in the city could be more collaborative.

There’s a “Kitchen Sync” double-header! First, host Lucy Gellman talks to Chris Cole, executive director of AIDS Project New Haven, about the organization’s upcoming participation in Dining Out for Life on April 28. In a second segment, Gellman welcomes WNHH’s “Deep Focus” host Tom Breen to discuss and review “City of Gold,” a new documentary from Laura Gabbert that follows Pulitzer Prize winning LA Times food critic Jonathan Gold on his endlessly stimulating journey through LA’s culinary culture.

Joshua Ratner, associate rabbi and Jewish educator at the Slifka Center, Yale Hillel, and Father Donat Augusta, the presiding priest at St. Basil’s Greek Orthodox Church in New Haven, join host Betsy Kim on “Law, Life & Culture.” With Passover beginning sundown Friday, and the Eastern Orthodox Easter arriving next Sunday, May 1, Ratner and Augusta talk about the history of these holidays, and discuss if and how these faiths support and or clash with each in today’s modern world.

Alarming news! “This Day In New Haven History” — cancelled events style — is noting that the Powder Day celebrations of 1917, marking how Benedict Arnold in 1775 defied local authorities to get the keys to the local arms and march on the British, is cancelled for the first time in the city’s history. It has something to do our involvement in World War One. To listen, click on or download the audio above.
