Episode 8: The Beat Goes On, Part 1. Columbia, Maryland begins a year-long celebration to mark its 50th birthday. Because we have so many people we want to talk to about the celebration, we have split Episode 8 into two parts to make sure we cover it all. We kick-off Part 1 with Grammy Award-winning entertainer, Judy Collins. She discusses her new book, Cravings and talks about her inspirations. We also talk to Jean Parker, General Manager of Merriweather Post Pavillion. She will tell us all about the history of the amphitheater voted one of the Top 5 outdoor venues in the United States by Rolling Stone Magazine. Keep an eye out for Part 2 to be posted in the middle of April.
