Holiday Hiatus and More Best of 2014

Essential Pittsburgh is on holiday hiatus. Please enjoy 90.5WESA's Holiday Programming in the meantime.

We will resume our "Best of 2014" shows on Monday December 29 with a science and SciFi themed show.

Ira Flatow, host of the NPR call-in science program Science Friday talks about how they've evolved over the last 25 years and found new ways to make science relatable.

Actor George Takei tells compelling stories about his experiences playing Helmsman Sulu on Star Trek, working on a TV show in Pittsburgh, and how his award-winning musical Allegiance connects with his activism for gay rights and Japanese American rights.

To leave a question or comment before or after the show dial 412-256-8783. More Essential Pittsburgh segments can be heard here
