NIGHT LIGHTS

WVAS welcomes in a new program… “Night Lights”, hosted by David Brent Johnson. Hear music from 1945-1990 featuring artists like Jackie McLean, Charles Mingus, Nina Simone, and many, many more! From jazz interpretations of the spirituals, to avant-garde covers of the great American songbook; it all comes alive on “Night Lights”! Catch “Night Lights” each Wednesday evening at 7 p.m. BODYLOVE

BODYLOVE is a radio soap opera with a secret mission. While its talented cast entertains the audience with an intriguing story, it also teaches about common health problems, especially those threatening African Americans. And at the same time, the show helps to connect listeners with the real-world health services they need -- services they might never learn about otherwise. On a health-behavior level, the show is mostly about diabetes and hypertension, stress management and mental health. On a dramatic level, the show is more complicated. It centers on Vanessa Love, a woman in early middle age raising three children with little help from her husband, a recovering alcoholic. Her beauty salon, Bodylove, is the family's main source of income...and Vanessa's main source of stress. She knows she needs to manage her hypertension -- but with her constant worries about her husband, the kinds of trouble her children can get into, and the pressure of running her own business, it's never easy for Vanessa to keep her blood pressure under control.
Bodylove airs Tuesday evenings at 6pm. |
