The Late Set WRTI Jazz is a conversation — and that’s what The Late Set is all about. Originated by critic Nate Chinen and broadcaster Greg Bryant, the show now convenes Chinen and Josh Jackson twice a month for perceptive variations on a theme, and their related interview with a special guest. Just like a hang at the end of the gig, in the back of the club, it’s direct, unfiltered and illuminating, revealing the music and its culture in a deeper light. DANGEROUS SOUNDS: Danish Jazz in 8 Stories WRTI WRTI and JazzDanmark present DANGEROUS SOUNDS--a podcast series in 8 episodes taking listeners on a historical journey of jazz in Denmark.
