On February 15, 1965 a bunch of local kids from New Jersey made their debut at the Choo Choo Club in Garfield. Over the remainder of the decade the Rascals would go on to open for the Beatles at Shea Stadium, sell records in the millions, tour the world a couple of times over, and create timeless music.

Jim Monaghan first interviewed Rascals lead singer Eddie Brigati in the early 90's.  They recently chatted on the phone about the Rascals legacy, repairing bonds with each other, and Eddie's new project, The Boys From the Music House.

Jim Monaghan would rather watch a T-ball team practice than have to suffer through some of what passes for "sport" in the winter Olympics.  Kim Mulligan thinks golf is as much an athletic event as solving algebraic equations.

With that in mind, Jim & Kim got into a discussion of the greatest athlete of our generation, with some help from the listeners.

With heavy snow in the forecast for Wednesday February 10, Jim Monaghan and Kim Mulligan swung into action!  Not to be outdone by any all-news radio station or TV coverage, Jim & Kim provided their standard team coverage to keep WDHA listeners in the know!

Leslie West is one of the THE legendary guitarists in rock.  His work with Mountain and West, Bruce & Laing defined the hard rock sound of the 1970's and he continues to be influential in the new millenium.

After a few days of teasing, and an early morning snow storm that threw a wrench into well-laid plans, the announcement finally came -
