WAMU: Metro Connection

We'll meet folks blowing away the cobwebs, shaking things up, and seizing the day as we bring you a show all about "Fresh Starts."

From the folks who build horse-drawn carriages to old-time radio geeks, we'll press rewind and whiz back in time with a show we're calling "Throwbacks."

We'll look at the changing ways we make and think about money in the Washington region.

As we mark that time of year when we all vow to be the best we can be, we'll bring you a show about "Resolutions."

With 2014 around the corner, we'll pause to toast some of the great characters we met and places we visited in 2013.

We'll bring you the second act of some of our most memorable stories, from the struggling monks of Holy Cross Abbey to the rapidly disappearing Dyke Marsh.

We'll dream a little dream this week, as we revisit some favorite stories about Washingtonians' wishes and aspirations.

We'll talk with Washingtonians young and old about lessons learned and knowledge gleaned from life's daily challenges.

We'll look at the places that shelter us and the symbolism behind our humble abodes as we bring you a show about "House and Home."
