Hi, I'm Kate Snow, NBC News anchor and host of the NBC News podcast, The Drink. This month I'm sipping green tea with the incomparable Harry Connick Jr., musician, actor, composer, author. We talk about how he got started playing for audiences in New Orleans at just 5 years old, and how a call from Rob Reiner to write music for When Harry Met Sally changed the course of his life. He also opens up about family, reflecting on losing his mom when he was only 13, how that loss has shaped him and inspired an orchestral piece and a book in her honor. It's all in this month's episode of The Drink. I hope you'll listen and follow wherever you get your podcasts.

I'd like to invite you on an adventure. Not just any adventure, mind you. No, this one is— how should we say— unsettling. We're going deep into the dark corners of a particular human mind. Perhaps a little too dark for some young ears. A place full of strange passions, intimations of madness, suspense, surprise. It's an exploration led by a man long dead, but who left behind, like ghosts, his unforgettable tales. His name was Edgar Allan Poe. And he is with us still. I'm Keith Morrison, and this is season 5 of Morrison Mysteries. Listen now.
