Brian

Hey there! It's me, Brian. Since you're here, let me tell you a little about myself. I was born and raised in Albany and currently live there with my girlfriend Samantha and our two cute little doggies named Biggie and Tiny. Adding to the nuthouse is my son Brody who is growing up incredibly fast, but getting more and more talented, funny, and handsome by the day. I feel very lucky to be able to spend time with you in the morning making you laugh, making you think, and sometimes even making you a little angry. But man, it's a privilege to do the show each and every day with Chrissy. I enjoy writing and talking about all things sports, wildlife, Capital Region nostalgia, interesting local people, and any and all of the quirky things I observe while living in the 518.

Haunted By The Moments Before Helicopter Crash
I keep telling myself to stop obsessing over what may have happened moments before the helicopter crash that took the lives of Kobe Bryant, his beautiful 13-year-old daughter Gianna and the 7 other passengers on board.  While their names and faces may not resonate with us like Kobe and GiGi they too were wonderful parents, siblings, friends, sons and daughters, neighbors, community leaders and the
Shirtless Workout Dude Becoming Real Pain-demic
A few weeks ago my girlfriend Samantha asked me if I had seen the guy in the window across the street who works out with his shirt off.  Surprisingly enough, I had not.  We live off of Lark Street in Albany and they don't call me Lark Narc for nothing.   I'm the guy who notices this type of stuff, aka I'm the nosey voyeur of the house.  I have high powered binoculars, walkie-talkies and a police s
