The big guy, Papa Codes, (Harry is his actual name) freaking cracks me up.  Literally every time I call him, he asks me a thousand times if I can hear him.

While the news of the day can certain

I woke up from a mid-afternoon nap to see yet a few more things that Governor Cuomo is banning, or least attempting to ban.  Vaping, plastic straws, plastic bags (to name a few) and now Styrofoam are all part of the Dandy Andy's plan.  It's a massive push to make New York a 'greener' state and I for one am all for a cleaner, greener New York for our children and our animals.  While Governor Cuomo

Just when you thought that life in the Capital Region couldn't get any better, it was recently announced that we're getting an Exit 3.  Brian and Chrissy rejoiced in the news by singing a song about the 518's latest triumph!

Charlie Daniels is the 82-year-old country, bluegrass, Southern rock, old-school fiddlin' icon who hasn't lost a step when it comes to entertaining his fans, or entertaining his thoughts.  It's hard to believe that his country-crossover smash 'Devil Went Down To Georgia' is forty years old! We had the pleasure of catching up with the Country Music Hall of Famer and he chatted with us about a litan

In case you somehow missed it (though it was all over the news and social media), the 'Simpsons' recently had an episode where it made fun of Upstate New York.  It even hit close to home, with Niskayuna making an appearance as part of the episode...

Cohoes Mayor Shawn Morse has been no stranger to our local newspapers since being elected back in 2015. While he's denied the allegations lobbied against during his term as a public official, things reached a boiling point this morning.  It's being reported that the Cohoes mayor was arrested this morning by the FBI.

It looks like people are leaving New York. In fact, more people are leaving than any other state nationally, to be accurate. Apparently, New York tops the states for population loss, with the highest rate nationally.  According to cbs 6 Albany, 48,510 people left New York from July, 2017 to July, 2018...
