The holidays are filled with the traditional carols and jingles we've all come to love, but there's another kind of music that's getting audiences into the beat-- and it's an African beat. Bush Mango Drum and Dance is celebrating a new season of music and a new musical director.
Plus, Black Friday, Cyber Monday-- the holiday shopping season is well underway. Now it's time to begin holiday "giving"-- by giving I mean donating to your favorite local causes on 'Roc The Day' which begins December 8th. It's a day-long online donation event that makes it easy to support the organizations that mean the most to you.
Finally, so much of what we hear in the news relates to job losses-- but there *is* one area that's looking for new recruits. The Rochester Fire Department is now accepting applications and they're encouraging women to apply. Alicia Sampson is a four year veteran of the City of Rochester Fire Department. She joins us in studio to share her experience.
