Special Holiday Podcast (12-20-09): It's a Wonderful Slice of 'It's a Wonderful Life' Mike does the entire movie in about 12 minutes. Producer Heather Frey plays Mary and special
guest star, radio show host Scott Austin joins
the festivities. Oh, yeah. There are a few WCPT
characters in the background singing
"Auld Lang Syne." I don't know how they
got into the studio. Honest.

Mike welcomes back Barbara Melera of D. Landreth Seed Company, who explains why now is the time to plant fall Saffron and Colchicum bulbs. Then, Mike accepts an apology from Tom LaPorte, Assistant Commissioner for the City of Chicago Department of Water Management for damage caused to trees on his block during recent water main construction. John Lough, Senior Forester for the Chicago Bureau of Forestry, joins LaPorte to discuss how Forestry works with other departments in an attempt to avoid such damage. Laurie Gravanga previews the first annual Veggie Fair at Knupper Nursery and Landscape next Saturday in Palatine, where Mike will be speaking.
