Between the federal government shutdown, New York City Mayor Eric Adams ending his campaign, and the dispersal of state checks, WAMC’s Andrew Waite and the New York Pubic News Network’s Jimmy Vielkind had much to discuss in their weekly conversation.

Andrew Waite has worked as The Daily Gazette’s featured news columnist, an editor at Alaska Airlines magazine, and in community newspapers in Montana and Alaska. He is a graduate of Albany High School and Boston University’s journalism school, and he returned to the Capital Region with his wife, daughter and son in 2021.
