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.

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.
