Two segments from the Master Gardeners of Cornell Cooperative Extension for Greene and Columbia counties: Heidi Bock from the Columbia Land Conservancy is on the "Trekking the Trails" segment as she explores Borden’s Bond, near Chatham. And David Chinery from Cornell Cooperative Extension talks about turf issues and the best way to care for or improve lawns. Plus, tune in for the WGXC Congressional Report, with the news from the past week from the representatives of the 18th, 19th, 20th, and 21st Congressional Districts. And the show will also include an excerpt of Catskill's Amy Rigby performing on a live WGXC broadcast June 16 from The Avalon Lounge in Catskill.

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.
