First hour: Author Todd Moss and his new book, Ghosts of Havana
Second hour: What's next for the Republican primary in the 133rd State Assembly District?
Best-selling author Todd Moss joins us to talk about his new book, Ghosts of Havana. It's the third book in his Judd Ryker thriller series. Moss is a Pittsford Mendon graduate who worked for the U.S. State Department in 2007 and 2008, focusing on African affairs. He now works for a think tank, the Center for Global Development. We'll talk to him about his book and American relations with Cuba after the so-called "normalization" process. We'll cover assassination plots and more, and how he sees our relationship with Cuba now.
Then in our second hour, we discuss what's next for the Republican primary in the 133rd State Assembly District after the death of Assemblyman Bill Nojay. Nojay was pursuing re-election when he died by suicide last week. His challenger in the Republican primary is Rick Milne, Mayor of Honeoye Falls. Milne will not automatically be granted a spot on the ballot in November. Instead, Nojay's name will remain on the primary ballot, and if he wins, the party chairs will select a candidate to replace him in the November election. We'll talk to Milne about how the primary will move forward, his campaign, and his thoughts on the tragedy.
