Dispatches from Planet Albany is brought to you by David Lombardo, host of WCNY's The Capitol Pressroom. The weekly conversations are a smart and funny encapsulation of the discussions reporters and sources have off the microphone at the Capitol in Albany. This inside baseball is for listeners who know the acronym ELFA, anxiously await the legislative calendar drop each December, or fondly recall the Poozer Politics podcast.

Mark Poloncarz hits the road to support local Democrats

Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz is looking to make waves outside of Western New York. The Buffalo Democrat launched a political action committee this year to support candidates running for local offices around the country, which he believes is key to rebuilding the Democratic bench for higher offices in the future. He joins the show to talk about his influence in local elections outside of New York, address the Mayor Pete comparisons, consider how Democrats can win in purple areas and weigh in on whether the next majority leader in the Assembly should come from upstate.

Episode Friends, frenemies and enemies in New York politics Cover

Friends, frenemies and enemies in New York politics

New York politics is littered with marriages of convenience. Gov. Kathy Hochul and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani have enjoyed an unlikely - but mutually beneficial - alliance for nearly a year, despite their ideological and stylistic differences. And those types of collaborations, which might not seem obvious at first glance, are critical to successfully wielding power in Planet Albany. We discuss the relationship between elected officials, staff and lobbyists with Shontell Plummer, a partner with Tusk Strategies. We also explore how Democrats should approach mid-decade redistricting in New York and whether a profile in New York Focus could spark jealousy at the Capitol.

The legislature's airing of budget grievances

Gov. Kathy Hochul announced a general agreement on the budget on Thursday morning, but Democratic state lawmakers are calling foul, arguing that major questions still need to be resolved. Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie went so far as to tell reporters that he's never approaching the budget process like this again. For more on the legislature's grievances, we checked in with Assemblymember Emily Gallagher, a Brooklyn Democrat, who has pushed a constitutional amendment to change the budget process in Planet Albany.
