NSTS Episode 138 – Xmas 2019 with Triumph’s Rik Emmett Part II

Welcome back to the 2019 No Sleep ’til Sudbury Christmas special, featuring none other than the legendary Rik Emmett. In Part II of this year’s special, Rik and I return to his home studio to chat about the controversy behind Christmas classic “Baby, It’s Cold Outside”, who wrote the Jeopardy theme, the back side of the beat, and so much more. And, he performs another Christmas classic.

Once again, Rik approaches his favourite Christmas tunes with humour, passion, and insights that introduce a entirely new level of understanding of music most of us tend to enjoy superficially. Cheers to him for being an incredible guest once again this year.

This concludes the NSTS programming schedule for 2019, returning the first week of January. To all my valued listeners, all over the world – I wish you a very Merry Christmas and an amazing 2020. I appreciate your loyalty, and it’s been my privilege to have you tune in this past year. All the very best to you. Happy holidays!
