the J being pronounced like a J instead of an H reminds me of doing doorknocking for a campaign a few years ago and getting someone with the last name "Cano" who went with "Can-o" instead of "Cah-no"

*waves to all* Am in the midst of kerfuffle so can't listen today, thus so looking forwards to archive, but checked in and Vanessa Tara I've always gotten a lot out of your comments, so I send my heartfelt condolences for your loss. What is happening in Canada has so many repercussions (that we down here well know.) Today is the birthday of an elder in my family who passed last year (two days before lockdown) and so I can empathize. Thank you Sheila B for "The Honest Broker!!!"

What helps me overcome feelings of humiliation or fear in a face to face social situation is I tell myself the other person/people feels somthing similar. That helps me feel OK!

@DjSheilaB You need to be true to yourself, and your taste. Whatever I like, I like. What I dislike, I dislike. I'm not just going to like something because someone is telling me it is great. If it is someone who has a taste that respect and admire like for example, you. I will give something a bit more of a chance, but if I don't like it, bottom line is, I don't like it. Always be true to yourself Sheila, and please don't change. That is one of the qualities that I love so much about you. Most of all, I love your unbridled passion for what you like.

I love everything you just said, Shelia. We have polar opposite tastes in music. I never listened to girl pop and conversely I'm a great jazz fan. I was seduced by your presentation and personality. I'm a better man for listening to your show and learning to appreciate girl pop.

there are certain songs: brenda and the tabs doing "that's the price you have to pay" or the moments doing "love on a two way street" or the chantels doing "look in my eyes" which make me crumble

Vanessa Tara, music so connects us. . .two weeks ago we all gathered at the cemetery for the first time. I played on my phone my parents' favorite song, "Always" Irving Berlin -- the slow Frank Sinatra version. When this person was in a coma, we played alot this Yo Yo Ma piece he loved, Bach: Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major, Prélude, and it really seemed to help him. He played cello in the local amateur orchestra, he learned it after age 50.
