  • Front Row Classics welcomes television writer and historian Jim Colucci to celebrate one of the most groundbreaking series in television history. Brandon recently had the pleasure of speaking to Jim about the history and legacy of "All in the Family," as touched upon in his latest book. The two cover topics such as the show's inception, the incomparable cast and some of the most memorable episodes. They also touch upon some of the trailblazing topics that hadn't been discussed before in sitcoms. We hope this delightful conversation will inspire you to go back and re-discover this television classic that remains as provocative, touching and hilarious as ever.
  • Front Row Classics is celebrating 100 episodes! We're incredibly grateful to our listeners for embracing us and supporting our efforts in keeping classic film alive.Brandon and Eric are also celebrating the 60th anniversary of To Kill a Mockingbird. This legendary film is beloved by multiple generations thanks to its lessons of love and empathy. We're thrilled to be joined by Scout herself, Mary Badham. Mary graciously recounts her memories of filming as well as her co-stars, including Gregory Peck who she still refers to as "Atticus." We also discuss her feelings on the film's lasting legacy.
