Selectman Tony Farrington has his say, as host Frank Schroth rounds out his series of sit-downs with the three most newly-elected Selectmen on his topical town discussion show, “My Town Matters.” Farrington talks about his priorities on the board, preventing teen substance abuse, improving traffic in town, and the developing social media policy and communication strategy for the board, among other topics. This interview is now airing Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings at 7:30 p.m. on the Public channel (Comcast 9/RCN 13).
Dining is an integral part of life on Cape Cod, with many restaurants, clam shacks and ice cream stands having come and gone, playing major roles in vacationers’ memories of their summer getaways. 12th generation Cape Codder Christopher Setterlund recently spoke at the Milton Public Library about his new book, “Historic Restaurants of Cape Cod,” mixing anecdote with history. Take a stroll down memory lane with this presentation that is currently airing during the Monday Forum at 6:30 p.m. on the Public channel.
The Dave Macklin Band brought a whole lot of funk as well as many popular favorites and oldies from the 20th Century to the Fuller Village gazebo, in the latest concert held at that local venue. From doo-wop to soul, R&B to disco, and even “La Dona e Mobile” thrown in for good measure, this show is all about fun and putting a smile on your face. Tune in when it plays on Tuesday evenings on the Public channel at 5 p.m.
