How did Albany's past lead to a culture of sexual harassment? For decades, the old unspoken agreement among lawmakers in New York's capital was known as the "Bear Mountain Compact" - what happens in Albany stays in Albany. Hosts Kacie Candela and Andrew Seger explore this history in depth, speaking with current and former lawmakers, and a former intern about her own experience in the 1980s.
Could New York State be the first to move to a Medicare-for-all system? In this episode, hosts Andrew Seger and Kacie Candela look at the New York Health Act, the single-payer proposal that has passed the Assembly four times only to stall in the State Senate. We chat with Assemblyman Richard Gottfried, the bill's sponsor, and Jodi Liu from the RAND corporation, whose study looks at whether single-payer is financially feasible for the state. Hint: Yes, only if everything goes right.

Once upon a time, Andrew Cuomo, Sheldon Silver, and Dean Skelos were referred to as the "three men in the room" who held all the power in Albany. Silver and Skelos, along with others in Cuomo's inner circle, have been convicted in trials and retrials this year on federal corruption charges. Prickly hosts Andrew Seger and Kacie Candela break down the most important convictions and the gubernatorial election's most recent campaign finance filing with the help of POLITICO reporters Jimmy Veilkind and Bill Mahoney. We also chat with Chisun Lee from the Brennan Center about money's increasingly hard to track influence on politics.
Where do you think upstate starts? And what do people do with their time if they're not always sitting in a delayed subway car? These are the questions we set out to answer in episode two. Prickly hosts Andrew Seger and Kacie Candela traveled to Kingston, New York to find out the issues people care about outside of New York City. We sat down in a diner and talked with locals about what they'll be thinking about when they head to the polls in the fall. Then we headed over to Faso Friday, a weekly protest outside of Congressional Representative John Faso's office. Tune in to get up to speed with what's happening north of New York City.

Fordham Conversations host Andrew Seger talks with both John and Anthony about their experience while, on the ship "Anna Mary." We also hear from Commander Jonathan Theel of the US Coast Guard.
