Toast of the Nation—New Year’s Eve

An NPR tradition every New Year’s Eve since the 1970s, Toast of the Nation is the perfect audio complement for the occasion. Tune in December 31, at 8 pm.

It’s festive jazz you can party to, all night long, even on lock down.
It’s sure to be a good time, even with just you and your radio!
