Alex Kahn and Sophia Michahelles preview the Mad Hatters' Parade May 13 in Hudson at 2 p.m. from the Hudson Area Library to the city's waterfront with WGXC's Randall Martin. Also, climate activists will rally in Albany on Saturday, April 29 at the state teachers' union (NYSUT) annual meeting in Albany to urge their leadership to implement previously adopted resolutions in support of divesting the state pension funds from fossil fuels. Jordan Dale of DivestNY discusses the rally and the overall divestment effort. The state bill to require the NYS Teachers' Retirement System to divest has more than 85 co-sponsors.

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. Interview segments from Justin Maiman are often heard on this show, as our movie updates from Jenny Ghetti and Amanda Lees. Interviews by hosts of the "WGXC Afternoon Show" also get played back here occasionally. 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. The show begins each day with local headlines, weather, and previews of community events. 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. Saturdays the show features weekly episodes of the "I Have Seen Niagara" serial.
