    Our show today is once again shortened due to the WAMC fund drive. First, we dive into the local journalism angle of the recently reopened sexual assault investigation against seven fraternity members at Cornell University. The story hit international headlines thanks to diligent reporting by students at Cornell's newspaper and may already be shaping the next election cycle. Then, Aaron Shellow-Lavine deepens his reporting on the tragic deaths of four children in Mechanicville, who police say we

    Co-host Aaron Shellow-Lavine wore yellow socks today, and thinks we should all consider the wisdom of giving your ankles a pop of color, particularly on stressful days. Speaking of stress: New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is facing narrowing polls in her re-election bid against Nassau County Republican Bruce Blakeman. How worried should she be? And how much will President Trump's latest friendly-ish press conference with New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani complicate Blakeman's prospects? On today's de

    The recent murder-suicide of two Ulster County first responders casts a spotlight on the mental health of people who risk their lives to save others.
