Hosted by Tom Roe in Acra, with contributions from many WGXC programmers.

Tom Roe hosts live from the WGXC Study Center in Acra. With another report, from WOOC, about how on Jan. 10, Governor Hochul delivered the annual State of the State address outlining her priorities for the coming year. Housing, criminal justice, heath care, and climate were some of the key issues she raised. As always, the State of the State is intended to provide an upbeat message with the details and harder issues addressed in the budget proposals to come out a few weeks later. Mark Dunlea and Sally Becker reviewed some key points.

The "WGXC Morning Show" is a radio magazine show featuring local news, interviews with community leaders and personalities, reports on cultural issues, a rundown of public meetings and local and regional events, with weather updates, and more about and for the community, made mostly through volunteers in the community through WGXC. The Catskill Makers Syndicate produce the "Better Weather" for the show. Rob Gelles produces the Columbia County history segment "Rob Around The County" and "This Month in History" for the show. And Jack Sencabaugh contributes the "Backtracks in Time" segment about local history. Some reports come from our partner station, WOOC-LP in Troy, out of The Sanctuary for Independent Media. Tom Roe also cuts up local and national news with songs and sounds for the show. At 9 a.m. "The WGXC Daily," with local headlines, weather, and previews of community events, airs. Also tune in for national headlines from the Public News Service on WGXC. Sometimes national, state, or local press conferences, meetings, or events are also broadcast live here.
