Hey, is there a way to view the August 18 music list that was played on Sunday? There was a song that I liked that I didn’t catch the title or musician in time. Can you help me with this?

I hear a happy sound this Sunday at 12PM. What is it, you may ask? It is the theme song from Live with C#. It is always nice to hear her show on a Sunday afternoon! Thanks!
