  • New Charges in Hulett Street Fire
    Aug 8 2025
    Edward Leon is facing federal arson and murder charges for setting the 2013 fire in Schenectady that killed David Terry and three of his children.

Also on this episode, we'll sit down with longtime Capital Repertory Theater Artistic Director Maggie Mancinelli-Cahill to talk about her career, and what's next after she retires this year.
