President's Letter There’s a lot of talk on television these days, but the question I often hear is, who are they talking to?

In a media landscape polarized by extreme viewpoints on The Right and on The Left, is anyone speaking to The Center?

That is what led us to develop a new show that speaks, in a lighthearted and entertaining way, to the old Reagan-Clinton middle, which may still represent a majority across the country.

“Balancing Act with John Katko,” hosted by the former Congressman from Camillus who earned a reputation for working across the aisle, aims to bring balance to discussions on divisive political issues—while adding a touch of fun along the way.

Katko will serve as the ringmaster, guiding viewers through the circus of D.C. politics. “Balancing Act” will feature engaging, circus-themed segments: • Tightrope: A focused portrayal of a hot-button issue of the day.

• Center Ring: An insightful interview with a key newsmaker.

• Did You Know? A fun exploration of political history.

• The Trapeze: An attempt to facilitate civility among two opposing guests.

• Next Week in Washington: A sneak peek at upcoming political land mines.

• Clowning Around: Comedian Moody McCarthy’s take on recent political news.

Directors Emeriti Shiu-Kai Chin Robert Daino Evelyn Ingram Ronald A. Teplitsky

During his four terms in Congress, Katko was ranked among the most bipartisan representatives by The Lugar Center at Georgetown University. When reflecting on a time when politics worked in Washington, he recalls when House Speaker Tip O’Neill and Senate Majority Leader Howard Baker could share a laugh and strike a deal. With “Balancing Act,” Katko aims to explore whether any common ground remains in today’s political landscape.

Robert J. Daino Broadcast and Education Center 415 W. Fayette St. Syracuse, NY 13204

At WCNY, we’ll be watching closely! We are eager to see if “Balancing Act” can play at least a small part in helping to make compromise cool, again. Thank you for staying tuned.

There is a lot happening on WCNY Radio. In the last issue, we announced the launch of Pulso Central, the region’s first and only Spanish-language radio station. We are happy to share that Pulso Central is on the air and going strong, offering a mix of new local programming, music from local host DJ Lorenz, and content from national Spanish-language network Radio Bilingüe. Find out more and listen live at pulsocentral.com.

With Pulso Central now available over the air on WCNYHD2, many of you have called and written asking how you can listen to WCNY Oldies HD. Have no fear, Oldies remains available and can be streamed on the WCNY website. Simply visit wcny.org, click the old-fashioned microphone icon at the bottom of any page, and choose “Oldies” to listen 24 hours a day.

Did you catch the Classic FM Top 42 Listener Favorites during the countdown? Yes, the top 42—we had a threeway tie for No. 40! The complete listing is available on the left of this page. If you’re wondering why you might want to keep that list handy, it also doubles as a gift list. What better way to celebrate holidays and special occasions than with the gift of music for your friends and family?

Since we’re talking about gift lists, we have great music to share with you throughout the holidays. On Thanksgiving Day, enjoy Classic FM specials as you gather around the table with loved ones. On Saturday, Dec. 7 at 1 p.m., the live broadcasts from the Metropolitan Opera return. We’ll continue the annual Christmas tradition of “Nine Lessons and Carols” from King’s College, Cambridge on Christmas Eve, followed by “Classic Choices Live” on Christmas morning. December wraps up with more specials for Hanukkah, and of course, we’ll kick off 2025 with the annual broadcast of the “New Year’s Concert” live from Vienna.

Last but not least, don’t miss “Bill Knowlton’s Annual Bluegrass Ramble Christmas Card,” airing on both Classic FM and WCNY Community FM. And speaking of Community FM, be sure to check out the high-quality, original local programming available on the station, with new shows added each month. Listen live, or visit wcny.org/communityfm to enjoy any of this great content on-demand.

The great programming on Classic FM, Community FM, Oldies, and Pulso Central is made possible by your generous ongoing support. Because of you, we can share great music and local content every day!

THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH? ell, we hope so! You know, they say politics resembles a three-ring circus, so a show that aims to bring you both sides of the issues may seem a little “freaky” these days—and that’s why it’s a perfect fit!

Do you find yourself tuning into the news and political debate shows while anxiously checking your blood pressure? Many media outlets have retreated to partisan corners, leaving viewers searching for something fresh and engaging.

Enter “Balancing Act with John Katko,” the show that aims to bring viewers back to the political conversation with real insights and meaningful discussions on the important political stories of the day—minus the bombast.

This half-hour spectacle kicks off with “The Tightrope,” where the former Congressman, ranked one of the most bipartisan, walks the fine line of an issue between Left and Right—without a safety net!

As he enters “The Center Ring,” he’ll chat with a newsmaker about the issue, ensuring that the discussion remains steady and that you get the unvarnished truth.

For history buffs, Katko presents “Did You Know?,” a fun and enlightening look at political history, packed with surprising facts you might not be aware of—yet!

Looking up high, or just at your TV, you won’t want to miss “The Trapeze,” where two guests from opposing sides of an issue will swing into a lively discussion and debate. They may even find some common ground along the way—ground, of course, something that actual trapeze artists aren’t too fond of finding!

We’ll also preview what’s happening “Next Week in Washington” from an insider’s perspective. And to round things out, comedian Moody McCarthy will send you off laughing with “Clowning Around,” where he offers his hilarious take on the lighter side of the week’s news.

So, put away that blood pressure monitor, grab some popcorn, and remember: in the circus that is politics, there’s always a “Balancing Act”—and this one’s on WCNY!

Ron Curtis, Jr. Lead Writer, Balancing Act with John Katko

WATCH "BALANCING ACT WITH JOHN KATKO" FRIDAYS AT 8:30 P.M. ON WCNY-TV 40

Daniel O’Donnell Live in Syracuse Don’t miss your chance to see Daniel O’Donnell live at the Oncenter on Saturday, Nov. 23 at 7 p.m. Daniel is one of the bestloved artists of our time and has had a remarkable career. He is the only artist in the world to score a hit on the UK album charts every year for the past 27 years, outshining icons like Michael Jackson, Madonna, U2, and the Rolling Stones.

Daniel burst into superstar-dom in the U.S. and Canada back in 2002 with his first-ever PBS special, “The Daniel O’Donnell Show.”

This marked the beginning of a special relationship between Daniel and PBS that has lasted for over 20 years.

Since that first airing, Daniel has produced 15 more specials.

It is Daniel’s belief that fans, throughout his time on PBS, have brought him to where he is today, standing beside him and making his career a success (as did fans in the UK and Ireland before that), and he will be forever grateful to each and every one of them.

Tickets, which include a meet and greet with Daniel prior to the show, are $150 per pair. Please call Katherine Keeney at 315.551.6838 or email katherine.keeney@wcny.org for tickets or more information.

By supporting WCNY, donors actively contribute to our ongoing efforts to inspire, educate, and entertain audiences of all ages.

End-of-Year Giving As the year draws to a close, WCNY invites you to consider the lasting impact of end-of-year giving, including gifts from an IRA or a QCD, and the importance of estate planning.

SYRACUSE CRAFT BEER, SINCE 2015

During this season of reflection and anticipation for a new year, individuals have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others by including WCNY in their year-end gifts and estate plans. Such contributions are pivotal in sustaining our mission to engage, educate, and entertain a diverse audience through quality content. IRA and QCD gifts provide donors with the opportunity to support causes they are passionate about while also reducing their taxable income. With the deadline for year-end giving around the corner, WCNY is encouraging you to explore these giving options and make a lasting impact in our community.

While many of us are considering the gifts we give, it’s also a perfect time to think about the kind of legacy we want to leave. By including WCNY in your planning, you’re not just making a donation; you’re investing in a tradition of lifelong learning and ensuring that future generations have access to programming that enlightens and empowers.

OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK!

115 GAME ROAD SYRACUSE, NY willowrockbrew.com

As a nonprofit organization, we rely on the generosity of our community to continue our work, which includes educational services, engaging cultural programming, and initiatives that make a difference in the lives of our viewers and listeners.

Those interested in making a year-end gift or including WCNY in their estate planning are encouraged to contact Katherine Keeney at katherine.keeney@wcny. org or 315.551.6838. We are happy to provide more information and assist with the process of creating a legacy that resonates with the values and vision of our donors.

As the year comes to an end, we thank our community for its unwavering support and look forward to another year of delivering programs that inspire and educate.

Together, we can continue to make a positive impact in our community and beyond.
