On October 14, 1987, 18-month-old ‘Baby Jessica’ McClure fell 22 feet into an abandoned well in Midland, Texas. Rescuers worked to free her over the next 58 hours, which received worldwide media attention. During the rescue effort, Jessica could be heard singing ‘Winnie the Pooh’

Hattie “Chatty Hatty” Leeper made history at WGIV as NC’s first Black female radio announcer. She passed today at 98. So grateful I got to give her her flowers at the 2025 NC Music Hall of Fame induction. She deserved that celebration. ❤️ #RIP

Melba Moore shared this memory of Freddie Jackson during our January interview. Hearing it now, I’m grateful she gave me a little glimpse of their friendship. Such a lovely testament to his personality. Rest in peace, Freddie. 🤍🕊️ #FreddieJackson #MelbaMoore #ChecktheRhymesTV

It was an HONOR to interview Clifton Davis, the man behind 2 of my favorite J5 songs: “Lookin’ Through the Windows” and “Never Can Say Goodbye.” He says the film Michael renewed interest in the music. Happy Birthday, MJ!
