October 8, 2025- In an excerpt from Dispatches from Planet Albany, we explore how advocates for New Yorkers with disabilities are hoping to wield more clout at the Capitol. Our guest is Mike Schweinsburg, president of the 504 Democratic club, which endorsed Lt. Gov. Antonio Delgado's bid for governor.

New Yorkers receiving unemployment are now eligible for a weekly payment of up to $869, up from the previous max of nearly $500. Also, Saul Zabar, the longtime owner of the iconic Upper West Side gourmet Jewish food market, has died at the age of 97. And finally, the city's largest landlord was hit with a $3.1 million penalty for illegally charging tenants for water.

On October 7, Beyond Plastics released a new report, “Follow the Money: The David vs. Goliath Battle to Pass the New York Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act.” Reports filed with the state showed that the bill was the most lobbied on during the section, with 107 lobbyists paid to defeat it. 21 of the 50 highest-paid lobbying firms in New York were retained by industry opponents to defeat a bill that was supported by 73% of New Yorkers. We hear from Judith Enck of Beyond Plastics and Blair Horner of NYPIRG. This has been Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine (I will note that I am married to Judith Enck.)

Bronx prosecutors have indicted ten people in a series of retaliatory shootings over Labor Day weekend that left four people dead. The NYPD blames drill rap for the retaliatory shootings. Meanwhile, older New Yorkers take their skills to the stage for New York City's third annual “Talent is Timeless” showcase.

Police say officers shot and killed a 28 year old man during a response to a domestic violence call in East Flatbush, Brooklyn. The NYPD says the incident is under investigation. Meanwhile, Bronx community groups are raising concerns about a proposed elevated service road alongside the Cross Bronx Expressway. And at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, hundreds of New Yorkers, along with cats, dogs, a camel, a horse, and even an owl, gathered for the annual Blessing of the Animals celebrating the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi.

(00:00) Weather and Golf Post Ryder Cup This chapter brings us to the picturesque Pine Canyon in Flagstaff, Arizona, where we share a mix of personal experiences and reflections on recent golf events. We recount the unexpected hailstorms and flooding in Arizona, painting a vivid picture of the unusual weather conditions that recently swept through the region. Amidst this backdrop, I took the opportunity to savor a quiet day on the golf course, capturing videos and appreciating the scenic beauty before the onset of winter. We then shift our focus to the Ryder Cup, highlighting the challenges faced by even the world's best golfers in alternate shot formats. The discussion emphasizes the psychological pressures of playing not just for oneself, but also for a partner and country. We explore how the European team's familiarity with match play contributed to their superior preparation and performance, leading to a decisive advantage in the initial rounds against the U.S. team. (12:08) Ryder Cup Crowd Behavior Discussion This chapter takes us through a candid conversation about golf, regional attitudes, and sportsmanship. Jeff Smith joins from Flagstaff, Arizona, as we discuss the challenge of playing at Bethpage Black, one of the toughest courses. We reminisce about Michael Michaelides, who worked there and his New York grit. The discussion turns to the notorious behavior of some New York fans during the Ryder Cup, reflecting on the negative stereotypes of the "ugly American" and sharing personal anecdotes from living in New York. We explore the tension between being a sports fan and maintaining respect, especially when witnessing the unprecedented face-off between the world's top two golfers. As someone who spent my teenage years in New York City, I share insights into the sometimes brusque nature of New Yorkers, illustrating the contrast with an amusing story about our move from Boston. (16:34) Golf Techniques This chapter offers a delightful blend of sports commentary and musical nostalgia. We share our appreciation for the professionalism of broadcasters Terry Gannon and Dan Hicks, while also distinguishing Dan Hicks from the country singer of the same name, known for his hit "How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away." Our discussion then transitions to the golf world, focusing on Brad Faxon's insightful commentary and the notable absence of Keegan Bradley from a major tournament despite being the 13th ranked player globally. We speculate on the challenges and pressures that might have influenced his decision not to play, and reflect on the relentless nature of armchair critics. Additionally, we ponder the minute differences in skill and precision that can determine success in golf, particularly during high-stakes competitions like the Ryder Cup. (32:07) Sound Analysis and Sporting Events This chapter explores the nuances of sound in golf, particularly how experienced caddies like Jim "Bones" McKay can discern the difference between an average and a perfect strike, as demonstrated through the example of PGA Tour winner Tyler Duncan. We also touch on travel experiences, discussing scenic and not-so-scenic routes across the United States, from the engaging landscapes of Sedona to the tedious drive from Phoenix to Palm Springs. Additionally, we reflect on the recent disappointment at the Ryder Cup, despite high expectations, and share plans for an upcoming road trip across the country. Alongside these discussions, there is an exciting mention of attending a concert, with a hint of humor regarding who the performers might be. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Giulia Heyward, WNYC and Gothamist reporter, talks about how New York officials are dealing with the Trump administration's attempts to roll back legal protections for the LGBTQ community.

This week, Mayor Eric Adams announced in a nearly nine-minute video that he was dropping his struggling reelection bid. While some were surprised, others saw it as inevitable. What does his exit mean for the rest of the field and how are the remaining candidates pivoting? The team also looks at how this move shapes Adams' legacy. NY1's investigative reporter Courtney Gross and political reporters Bobby Cuza and Kelly Mena break down the latest from the campaign trail. Later, the federal government shutdown continues with no end in sight, as the Trump administration looks to strip New York of billions in transportation funding. What impact will this have on the Empire State? The "Off Topic" team digs into the president's decision to withhold funds and what it means for New Yorkers.

Jonathan Mahler's The Gods of New York is a brilliant chronicle of the late 1980s, when a rotating cast of outrageous characters — Trump, Koch, Sharpton, among others — hogged the headlines. Bradley talks to Mahler about the clash of epic egos, as well as shifting social conditions. How exactly did homelessness and untreated mental illness go from an emergency that pricked the conscience of New Yorkers to a normalized, if regrettable, fact of urban life? Fast-forwarding to the present, they parse Brooklyn's transformation, how the business elite grew complacent, where Mamdani will lead us, and who will write the next chapter about a wealthier but increasingly rudderless city.This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City's only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today's episode: info@firewall.media.Be sure to watch Bradley's new TED Talk on Mobile Voting at https://go.ted.com/bradleytusk.Subscribe to Bradley's weekly newsletter and follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack + YouTube.

NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch is warning that looming federal counterterrorism funding cuts could jeopardize historic safety gains in the subway system. Meanwhile, Governor Kathy Hochul says the state will not cover costs to keep federal attractions like the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island open during a potential government shutdown, instead urging New Yorkers to blame Republicans in Washington. Plus, New Jersey has issued a statewide drought watch after months of below average rainfall and declining reservoir levels.

Maritime Aquarium gets part of a federal grant for a lobster trap recovery program. Most VA services in the region will continue under the government shutdown. New Yorkers will have to pay income taxes on those rebate checks arriving soon. Plus, Connecticut's Clean Slate law gets back on track after a pause.

This message marks the beginning of a 5-month journey through the Gospel of Mark. Mark wastes no time confronting us with the reality of Jesus—the Messiah who calls us to follow Him with our whole lives. We launch the series with two pressing questions: What makes Jesus distinct? and What does it mean to prepare the way for Him? These are not just questions to ponder, but a call to live differently in light of the Gospel. Scripture Referenced: Mark 1:8

On October 26, 1825, the fate of New York City – and the entire United States – changed with the opening of the Erie Canal, a manmade waterway that connected the Hudson River to Lake Erie.It was the most significant engineering project of its time, linking the ocean to the nation's interior -- a 363-mile route from Albany to Lake Erie. Without even knowing where the Erie Canal is on a map of New York state, you could probably guess its course because of a row of cities which developed and prospered, almost in a westward line – including Utica, Syracuse, Rochester, and Buffalo.In some cases, these were modest-sized places like Schenectady or Rome that benefited financially from canal construction; in others, such as Syracuse (which was founded in the year 1820), the canal was chiefly responsible for its existence.However, it was also one of the most critical events in New York City's history, even though the entrance to the canal is approximately 150 miles north of New York Harbor. It essentially became the canal's gateway for freight traveling to any place inside the country or out to the world. As a result, New Yorkers quickly took advantage of the opportunities the canal offered.Today, we're celebrating the 200th anniversary of the opening of the Erie Canal by going straight to the source – in a conversation with Derrick Pratt, the Director of Education and Public Programs at the Erie Canal Museum in Syracuse, New York.Visit our website for more images and other tales from New York City history. This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.
