Welcome to our listeners globally and Coast to Coast in the US. You are at the right URL WERB radio.com, at the right time. And you are on another program of East to West, and this is Eitan Battat. 

Thanks for joining me for another East to West songbook. This week 26 years ago, my mom had passed away. My mom was the inspiration and the driving force behind my lifelong love for radio. From a very young age, I watched her wear her heart into every broadcast, ensuring that each program was executed to perfection. The person behind the microphone was nothing short of mesmerizing. She had an incredible ability to connect with her audience, making every listener feel as if she was speaking directly to them. Matching her broadcasting abilities is an almost impossible challenge. Her career was all she had. She started from nothing and climbed to the heights of the Israeli broadcasting authority. And although it was very demanding, she was never too busy to be the best mother.

She instilled in me the values of hard work, kindness, and generosity; all while leading by example. Although she passed many years ago, I feel her influence in every aspect of my life. I’m proud to have been inspired by such an extraordinary woman. Her legacy in both radio and motherhood, continue to shape my own journey. East to West – this radio program that you’re listening to – is a testament for that continuous journey. Sometimes I just wish that you would listen to one of my programs, give me some pointers for it to pause, where to enter, sequencing the music, and whatever she may think necessary to make my program better.

So, mom wherever you are, thank you for the inspiration, thank you for instilling in me the love for music and radio. And of course, you are on East or West, and I hope you will enjoy this particular songbook that I’ve compiled for you with music featuring the sensational Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra, Mumford & Sons, and many more.
