BPR Full Show: Gov. Charlie Baker's Final "Ask the Governor"

Today on "Boston Public Radio" :

NBC's Chuck Todd zoomed in to discuss how Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock's victory over Republican candidate Herschel Walker in Georgia was the latest sign that former President Donald Trump's brand of conservatism is waning in popularity. He also discussed the latest upheaval to the media industry following the closing of the Washington Post Magazine, a strike at the New York Times and the continuing closures of local newspapers under control by large conglomerates. Chuck Todd is the Moderator of Meet the Press, host of Meet the Press Daily on MSNBC, and the Political Director for NBC News.

We then held a call-in segment, where our listeners talked about where they receive their news and how they miss the local coverage provided by smaller newspapers.

Governor Charlie Baker came into the studio for his last segment of "Ask the Governor" on BPR before he leaves office in January. He talked about how he doesn't own a car and is confused by newer models, some of his proudest moments in office, and received calls from former Governor Bill Weld, Governor-elect Maura Healey and U.S. Labor Secretary Marty Walsh.

Nadia Liu Spellman of Dumpling Daughter joined with her mother, restaurateur Sally Ling, to discuss their respective culinary careers and their new book "Dumpling Daughter Cookbook."

We ended the show by talking with listeners about whether they let their children swear.
