Country in the Country 20120701

It's Country in the Country for Sunday, July 1, 2012.

Tonight, the first Country in the Country program of the 2012 Summer season descended upon an unsuspecting public. To soften the blow, Country Yossi dispensed with the usual call-in Shaile format for the first hour, in favor of a selection of Country Yossi and the Shteeble-Hoppers favorites. Well, they're Country Yossi's favorites, at least. You might not like them at all. But if you do, here they are, including links to buy them for your very own:

• Hello Mameh
• Sing, Zadie, Sing
• A Boy Named Zlateh
• Oh Yankel
• Peel One More Potato (For The Kugel)
• Chicken Soup
• I Am A Sheep
• Lukshin Kugel Eater
• The Cover Of The Jewish Press
• When Moshiach Comes

 

We also heard The Beth Shifra report. And we had a few technical glitches here and there, just so you know it's a genuine Country Yossi production. And then in Hour Two, the calls and the shailes came fast and furious -- the rooster crowed fast and the callers were furious! And, there was no shortage of Grand Prize Winners! Plus we had an informational visit from Dov Shurin with the latest news from Israel,  and an inspirational visit from Rabbi Moshe Meir Weiss of the Agudas Yisroel of Staten Island. And a little more Country Yossi music: "One Daf A Day."

We'll see you next week.
