Affordable housing is today's theme, and tune in for recent coverage of the issue. WGXC's Randall Martin will talk with Columbia County Fair Housing Department Director Bill Fisher and county Housing Authority Board Chair Theresa Mayhew about updates on housing programs and pandemic relief. Plus, how has COVID-19 and government action in the last 18 months effected housing in the Capital District? As Governor Kathy Hochul and the NY state legislature extended the eviction moratorium until January 2022, Moses Nagel from WOOC looks into what this means for low income tenants as well as the property owners who rent inexpensive apartments.

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.
