- 7-7:30AM, Fordham Conversations with Robin Shannon: Spring is finally here, and for most of us that’s probably a breath of fresh air. There’s not only a change in the temperature but a change in people’s moods. Most of us have heard about the winter blues, but do you know where the saying comes from? Every year, millions of Americans suffer from mild to severe cases of the winter blues, a condition known as seasonal affective disorder, or what’s commonly referred to as SAD. On this week's Fordham Conversations, WFUV's Katie Fisher is joined by Fordham University Professor of Chemistry Joan Roberts who's an expert on SAD. Dr. Roberts talks about the cause of seasonal depression and the powerful impact light has on health.
- 7:30-8AM, Cityscape with George Bodarky: F. Scott Fitzgerald’s 1925 masterpiece novel The Great Gatsby will once again come to life on the silver screen next week. The latest film adaptation of the novel stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire. The movie promises "Roaring Twenties" glamor, excess and excitement, but we thought, "Why should Hollywood have all the fun?" On this week's Cityscape, we’re looking back on the 1920s in New York City — the music, the fashion, the dancing, and even the mobsters.
