The Governor will speak with Alan Chartock and Joe Donahue, host of The Roundtable, and take calls from listeners. The interview will touch on, but is not limited to, the Governor's legacy, what he feels he has accomplished, what he will and won't miss, and the state's precarious financial picture.
Joe Donahue says, "Both Alan and I are honored the Governor will be joining us as he finishes up his term to discuss issues important to the Empire State and ones that continue to plague it. We are equally excited our listeners will have a chance to speak with Governor Paterson and ask the questions on their minds."
