State Sen. Adam Gomez and Writer Ken Harris

We have a two-fer with interviews this edition with one about politics and one about a local artist. First up is State Sen. Adam Gomez whose district includes much of Springfield and part of Chicopee  and who is up for re-election. He is being challenged by Springfield City Councilor Malo Brown. I had the opportunity of speaking with Gomez on "Government Matters," the program on Focus Springfield that I host. Steve Cary, the executive director of Focus Springfield, graciously allowed me to share the audio here on this podcast.  If you want to learn more about what legislation Gomez supports, go to https://adamgomezma.com. Springfield's Ken Harris is a writer, an actor and a puppeteer and he has a new one-man show he will be performing three times in the region. The show is "Foes of a Minimum Wage Guard" and it is playing on July 21 at 1 p.m. at the Castle of the Knights in Chicopee; on Aug. 3 at 6 p.m. at Gasoline Alley on Albany Street in Springfield; and on Aug. 24 at 6 p.m.at Holyoke Media, 1 Court Plaza, Holyoke.
