I’ve reinvented myself so many times I’m not sure who I am right now.
The important thing is to try to know yourself, what are some of the things that you love to do, if you had a chance to do “it all again” what would you do? Just ask yourself all the questions … be your own creator … who am I, what do I love, why do I love certain things and where would I love to be … etc., etc., etc.
WE CAN DO IT, Nathan Lane & Matthew Broderick
BROADWAY BABY, Elaine Stritch
Lunch and Judy # 115: Would Your Life Really Change if You Win the Lottery?
I was never $$ obsessed.
I only needed money if I needed it … to pay a bill (DUH) but, I did need to LOVE
what I was doing more than anything. Of course, in theatre the pay checks are
not the reason why people go into theatre … especially in the beginning.
Lunch and Judy # 114: What Will You Do For Love?
TUNE: FATSO, The Story
“ Someone will admire my gorgeous arms and legs when I’m only one hundred pounds!”
There’s a village in Uganda where fat women are revered. The fatter the better … the men are more respected if their women are fat … and treated as valuable … like a cow.
Lunch and Judy Show # 113: Write What You Know
Do you write? It’s easy … if you can speak you can write. Try it.

Lunch and Judy Show # 98: I Feel As If I Were Lost in the Stars
I’ve found myself lost in the sadness of a world that the majority of it’s inhabitants believe in magic. Because of this belief so many people are dying of violence and cruelty and, in my opinion, it is all for nothing. Isn’t it a pity?

Lunch and Judy Show # 95: From the Snake Pit to the Nuthouse
I’m addicted to Facebook … that’s good and that’s bad because let’s face it any addiction is bad, however, it keeps me from dwelling on me, that’s the good news … but the issues that confront our world today make me crazy. There is so much corruption in the world and people don’t know about it … or it’s that they just don’t care. They are being poisoned by the food they eat and the air they breathe. So with the event of the mental hospitals letting go of all their inmates, those same people are now living on the streets of our cities creating havoc with the world.
Lunch and Judy Show # 94: New Possibilities
NOBODY DOES IT LIKE ME, Two For The Seesaw

MEL TORME drops in on Judy and they sing together…
Speaking of “dropping in” get a load of this happening to Judy
Lunch and Judy Show # 88: Seniors & Technology
I meet seniors all the time and they tell me how they have absolutely no experience using a computer and I think that is very sad. Their world would open up so much if they only knew how to do simple things. I wrote an award winning play about an elderly school teacher who lives in a retirement community who transformed herself from a woman trapped in a wheelchair into a young girl again … her computer became her time machine! This is the topic, and the show is enhanced by tunes and commentary … pure entertainment!
Lunch and Judy Show # 87: Reflecting Upon Wars & Veteran’s Day
On this episode we discuss wars … the cost of war in money since 2001 so far is over 1,227,165,456 and going up every second. Our cost in terms of our loss in our beautiful sons and daughters is priceless. FOLLOW THE MONEY!!!!!

WGRN’s Judy Stadt in a Purrrfect Purrformance on the Conan O’Brien Show
Last night the Conan O’Brien show was graced by the purrrrfect presence of WGRN”s own Judy Stadt, who stole the show during a show-opening skit in which Conan launched the show by saying he had, as special guests for the show, the orignal 1982 cast of Cats. What happened next was pretty hilarious, as 11 old and decrepit “Cats” cast members and one lively and spry one (Judy, of course) came down the aisles and harassed the audience. WGRN is proud to note that the best closeup from the whole bit was of our own Judy Stadt. (She’s the one pawing the blonde lady in the aisle.)

ASK DR. WIENER, Regrets?
Lunch and Judy Show # 81: Something Old is New
Judy’s monologue about life and a way to make your life a happier experience takes the show in a philosophical direction. ”Ask Judy” takes the show on more funny road.
Life today is so interesting, don’t you think? One one hand people look to religion for solace and hope and on the other hand religious people are going to Africa and spreading the word that homosexuals should be forced to become straight or receive capital punishment.

SUMMERTIME … Judy Stadt
SAY IT … Kurt Elling
DON’T ASK ME NOT TO SING … Andrea Marcovicci
MERRY GO ROUND … Alex Battles
TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT … Why are our corporations forsaking us and sending their jobs abroad? Why are people blaming Obama for this economy and fail to mention that Bush put us in a three trillion dollar hole, not to mention all our soldiers killed … and for what? Nothing has changed there, nothing will EVER change there. Dr. Wiener talks about hypnotism … it’s a riot.
The Lunch and Judy Show # 78: Are You Worried About Finding Work

The Lunch and Judy Show # 76: Anger Management
This week’s Storytime Millie McGillicuddie is thrilled to present CINDERELLA ala Judy Stadt, of course.
Some people have anger problems with the work they have chosen as their profession like that angry teacher in Annie … this tune sung by Carol Burnett LITTLE GIRLS tells it all.
Dr Wiener discusses how he deals with anger… you may learn something?
I went online and found an interesting site that trains doctors to deal with their angry patients, so I tweeked the dialogue and perform it for you with our own German Doctor Gertrude Klemper and then my original (music and lyrics by me) tune THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK.
Something happened to me this week that scared the heck out of me and reminds me … and hopefully will remind you how important it is to follow your INSTINCTS and then you won’t be sorry or angry. Then I sing you a tune (with commentary) HOW ABOUT YOU?
The Lunch and Judy Show # 75: Everything Old Is New Again
This week’s Storytime Millie McGillicuddie presents LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD ala Judy Stadt, of course.
I promise you won’t be able to stop yourself from dancing around the room to Peter Alan’s EVERYTHING OLD IS NEW AGAIN.

The Lunch and Judy Show # 72: Are You Creative? Have You Ever Tried Writing?
There really is not enough radio for children and I’m doing my share … because I love doing children’s theatre … This week’s “Storytime” brings you HANSEL & GRETEL ala Millie McGilliguddie ala Judy Stadt. Write about what you know has been the mantra I’ve heard quite often, so here is a story I wrote about my memories at Rockaway Beach, NY in the ’40′s. Then Will Chase sings a tune from The Story Of My Life … WRITE WHAT YOU KNOW.
Angelo Parra, my dear Playwright friend just published PLAYWRITING FOR DUMMIES and we do a spirited chat that you will love to hear about him, how he got started writing, his success in the theatre etc. Introducing one of my favorite performers Lotte Lenya, who actually saw me (and liked me) singing her tune from The Three Penny Opera, but here’s THE Lotte singing PIRATE JENNY and SO WHAT?.

Did you have a happy childhood? Mine was s…, and I rants about my teacher in the 3rd grade … but I did love Radio & Television and I present I’M HOT FOR HOWDY (Doody). How were your SCHOOL DAYS … Mandy Patinkin sings so sweetly, but it brings up so many bad memories. ON THE OTHER HAND there were the wonderful movies and Danny Kaye and THE UGLY DUCKLING!
But the BEST of all my TV memories was Sid Caesar!!! I present to you a sample of his hilarious tribute to Arnold Schwarzenegger at a Roast at The Friars Club in NYC. I always want to be a kid and I WON’T GROW UP, and I sing you a tune about that YOUNG AT HEART. This week’s TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT says “How stupid is the world that makes phone hacking the number one topic of discussion when there is such pain and turmoil happening?”

The Lunch and Judy Show # 70: Being on Stage
I’m very proud to tell you about my 7 years in recovery. Addiction takes all forms … one of my addictions was “being on the stage”. For many, many years, if I wasn’t in a play I suffered from terrible bouts of depresssion. I talk and sing about other kinds of addictions too.

HELLO DARLINGS! I’m very proud to tell you about my 7 years in recovery.

The Lunch and Judy Show # 68: Censorship in America
Censorship in America darlings is the theme of this week’s show. I tell stories and play tunes that will shock you and might make you chuckle out loud (even though it’s not funny). Lenny Bruce, J. Edgar Hoover are at the core with tidbits from George Carlin & Lenny himself.
