View descriptionShare

Earthrise & its Pittsburgh connections ... GUEST Andy Masich ... President and CEO of the Senator John Heinz History Center in association with the Smithsonian Institution ... Christmas Eve marks the 50th anniversary of “Earthrise,” one of the most famous images ever taken ... and the Apollo 8 mission, the first manned mission to the Moon, paved the way for the Apollo 11 Moon landing ... There are tons of great Pittsburgh connections, per usual, & the Apollo 8 mission was an uplifting moment during the tumultuous year of 1968 ... In fact, the Apollo 8 crew’s reading from the Bible’s Book of Genesis on Christmas Eve was (at the time) the most watched television show in history ... And then If we have some extra time, you can chat about one of the great Christmas traditions in Pgh that’s gone but not forgotten: Kaufmann’s Christmas windows

Date Night (coming up Feb 1, Christ Church at Grove Farm) ... GUEST Jay and Laura Lafoon

The Wonder Of Christmas ... GUEST Terry Timm, Christ Community Church of the South Hills

Top 50 Pittsburghers of All Time!
