Harry Connick, Jr. is among today’s most successful and multi-talented artists and has garnered acclaim in music and acting. He won both Grammy and Emmy awards, as well as received Tony nominations. His album, Harry for the Holidays, features some of Harry’s best Christmas music, including the Bourbon Street-inspired renditions of Frosty the Snowman and Santa Claus is Coming to Town.

Podcast guests include Patricia Addie-Gentle RN, CDCES, Dan Houdeshell, Pendulum Glucose Control’s Chief Medical Officer Dr. Orville Kolterman, and Diabetes Meal Planning Made Easy, Author Hope Warshaw, MMSc, RD, CDCES, and Mama Rose Marie.

Diabetes Meal Planning Made Easy is the go-to resource on why, what, and how much to eat for people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Readers find cut-to-the-chase advice in three easy-to-digest sections. Section one is: Nutrition and Health Eating Basics. Section two is: Foods by Group, in-depth detail about each food group, including alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, sweets and desserts, and convenience foods. Section three is: Putting Healthy Eating for Diabetes Control into Action, covering how to preplan, supermarket shop, read food and nutrition labels, eat healthier restaurant meals, and much more.

This year Harry Connick Jr. released his fourth holiday album, Make It Merry, featuring Harry’s definitive take on Christmas classics, including Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas and Jingle Bells, as well as newly-recorded versions of his originals and fan favorites like (It Must’ve Been Ol’) Santa Claus and When My Heart Finds Christmas, alongside two brand-new, original songs. Make It Merry is the first of the original songs, along with On This Christmas Morning, set to be featured on the album.

Throughout the podcast, we feature music from Harry For The Holidays album courtesy of SONY Music. Harry Connick, Jr.’s second Christmas album, Harry for The Holidays, is as much a salute to his New Orleans musical roots as it is to the season.
