WGXC Morning Show: Bob Cohen, Alycia Bacon (Audio)

Aug 03, 2022

On August 2, the People vs. Fossil fuels campaign held events across the country urging President Biden to declare a climate emergency, halt new fossil fuels, and issue a series of executive orders (see climatepresident.org). Here are recordings from the rally held in Albany in front of Rep. Paul Tonko's office, including Mark Dunlea of PAUSE, followed by Bob Cohen of Citizen Action and then Alycia Bacon on Mothers Out Front.

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. 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. At 9 a.m. "The WGXC Daily," with local headlines, weather, and previews of community events, airs. 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.
