WGXC Morning Show: Ivy Hest (Audio)
Up to a thousand individuals are expected to join excluded workers as they end their march from NYC with a rally at the Capitol on Wednesday, March 23. Ivy Hest of the Columbia County Sanctuary Movement discusses with WOOC's Mark Dunleathe effort to put $3 billion into the upcoming state budget to assist undocumented immigrants and others who are currently ineligible for various federal and state COVID economic relief programs.
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.
