In the latest Hudson Valley Word of Mouth segment, Julia Joern visits the historic river town of Coxsackie to chat with Justine Post, who together with her twin sister, Lia, owns Mansion + Reed General Store. Located right in the center of main street — and directly across from Reed Street Bottle Shop — their store opened in 2017 and was then renovated and revamped in 2021. It specializes in sourcing goods from New York state farms and local makers and offers everything from coffee, craft beer, bread, eggs, cheese, ice cream, pasture-raised meats, and plenty more. Recently featured in a Times Union article, "The general store revival: Hudson Valley general stores, a 19th-century mainstay, are once again vibrant community and food hubs," Mansion + Reed General Store consequently has also become an important part of Coxsackie's own downtown revival. Plus, hear new local music from Nelson Esposito Quintana.

The show features local news, interviews with community leaders and personalities, a rundown of local and regional events, weather updates, and more about and for the community. The show is a place for a community conversation about issues, with music, and more. Saturday the emphasis is more on radio art, and art on the radio. Unlike shows by individual programmers on the station, the "WGXC Afternoon Show" is considered partially station-run. The Wednesday show calls itself the "Drive-Time Show" and Sunday's is "Li Le, Le Tan."
