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

Around 9:20 a.m., David Voorhees, director of the Jacob Leisler Institute, discusses the history of Claverack Landing with Rob Gelles. Voorhees spoke with Gelles as part of the monthly series, "Rob Around the County." After that, the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the housing market in the Capital region in different ways. A lot of people have reevaluated their priorities and decided to move here from downstate or across the country. Others have decided that now is the best time to sell their property. Moses Nagel of WOOC spoke to some people who decided to buy homes here in the last year.

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. Julia Joern produced the "Hudson Valley Word of Mouth" interview segment each week. The "WGXC Congressional Report" also airs here. 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. At 10 a.m., national headlines from Public News Service are on WGXC. Sometimes national, state, or local press conferences, meetings, or events are broadcast live here.
