Show Notes

NY Phoenix co-owner Sam Clifford stopped by the Daily Gazette podcast studio to discuss the inaugural opening weekend for Schenectady's newest professional basketball team, the New York Phoenix.

The squad opens at 7 p.m. this Friday, Feb. 28, at Amory Studio NY and will play again on March 1.

Sam talked about bringing a team to Schenectady, the legendary basketball court that the Phoenix will play on, the players, working with his wife, Rebecca, and giving us an exclusive—the name of the Phoenix mascot!

Stan and Shen talk about some good news, an end to the Saratoga Springs DPW special election, Sly the horse saved by Saratoga Springs PD, our visit to Cornerstone Veterinary Hospital's ribbon cutting; Stan talked about the Saratoga Beer Summit, and the two now have plans for the next Swiftie Brunch in March!
