We’ll take a closer look at the economic impact from the tens of thousands of tourists who came to the region during the total solar eclipse. Tourism officials estimate that Essex County alone saw a $2 million boost in sales; so far, two Democrats and a Republican have thrown their hats in the ring to become Plattsburgh's next mayor. Now an independent candidate is joining the field; New York Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie says Governor Hochul spoke prematurely this week when she said they’d reached a tentative budget agreement; plus, music and conversation with Brian Keane, the drummer of Gordon Lightfoot’s band. He's performing in Brockville Friday night.
