This week on Newsmakers: Pawtucket mayoral candidate Adam Greenman discusses his Democratic primary challenge against Don Grebien, Hasbro, Memorial Hospital and more; state Rep. Jon Brien talks about being the General Assembly's only independent, challenges in Woonsocket, the $70,000 rug mistake and more.

Report from the New England Beacon We're talking with correspondent Chris Brady of the New England Beacon for this AWHY? Episode. His recent article in the Beacon entitled, 'CVS calls Woonsocket, RI home.  Do Residents Benefit?'  explores the relationship of a $373B corporate entity and its de-industrialized, under capitalized home city. While Woonsocket lets dozens of teachers go CVS found ways to eliminate its obligation to pay property taxes.  Its unique relationship to the state of Rhode Island's Economic Development Corporation allows them to reduce its overall tax burden on income.  While it's true this corporate entity employs thousands, many from Woonsocket and Rhode Island, we're asking what makes for a 'good' or effective corporate relationship between a company and its home community.  When should a community consider it would be better to pursue a different corporate relationship?  And we're also considering what a positive relationship looks like between a large employer and the region and city it calls home.    Asking these questions are essential in the work we do to build more resilient community's through better economic development and revitalizing a community's built environment.  Support Chris and the New England Beacon because they represent the new generation of solid local reporting from an independent source.  Connect with Chris on substack

How did millions of Americans end up living in neighborhoods where finding fresh food is harder than ever, and why is the problem by design, not accident? The answer rests in a major policy shift that fundamentally altered the American food landscape.Food DesertsIf you're new to the show (thanks Apple Podcasts!) here are some favorite episodes to get you started:Freedom House Ambulance ServiceOne-Nil to the ArsenalGuerrilla Public Service ReduxTowers of SilenceThe House that Came in the MailThe Real Book Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of 99% Invisible ad-free and a whole week early.

On this episode, we dig into a haunting from Woonsocket, Rhode Island—a city with a past steeped in the remnants of the American industrial age. A cramped family home becomes the epicenter of something deeply unsettling, divided between a playful spirit below and a sinister presence above. What begins with laughter in the basement slowly spirals into something far more disturbing, especially for the women who dare to stay the night.   As we unravel the first-hand account of a man still living in that very house, we explore the psychological fractures caused by repeated encounters, and a lingering question that chills the core: What happened between the girl in the basement... and the man who won't stop staring from the doorway?

This is The Public's Radio, I'm James Baumgartner. At a time when the longstanding friendship between the US and Canada is fraught with a trade war sparked by the Trump administration, a Rhode Island museum is mounting a celebration of the Ocean State's ties with French Canadian culture. It's called “La Francophonie”. In this week's Artscape segment, reporter David Wright sat down with Anne Conway, Director of the Museum of Work & Culture in Woonsocket.

We're just diving into the bizarre world of Rhode Island cable access television of the 80s and 90s. And our special returning guest is Kevin Cafferty! Kevin was there, and remembers it all. If you were anywhere near the Ocean State back in the day, you never knew what you'd find on local cable TV, but you knew it would freak you out. Including: awkward talk shows, befuddling children's shows, ultra-low-budget sketch comedy, backyard wrestling, high school dances, karaoke direct from Woonsocket, the intense legal drama of Providence traffic court, the Star Trek fan show we loved more than Star Trek, the Kiss fan show that was parodied on Family Guy... and the legend of Daphne's Madhouse. Why would you ever look at mainstream TV again? On cable access, your own neighbors were making the weirdest shows in the world. Kevin's podcasts: Gleaming the Tube and The Best Stuff in the World!
