Over the last century Hollywood may have become synonymous with stardom, but believe it or not the film and TV industry was born on the east coast. After being forced to move westward in the early 1900s due to rising production costs and unsatisfactory weather, over the last few decades there’s been a renewed interest in expanding the industry on the east coast. This has resulted in a surge of productions throughout the tri-state area.  The primary reason for that renewed interest? Tax credits.  New York state has one of the most generous film and TV tax credit programs in the country. While it generates plenty of revenue, there are some who believe that New Yorkers are the ones actually paying the price. On this episode of 1010 WINS In Depth, listen as we break down both the history of cinema in the tri-state area and New York's current film tax credit program in an effort.

To wrap up Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, In Depth takes a closer look at the Native Hawaiian diaspora in New York City. The media often solely depicts Hawaii as a beautiful paradise, but the islands and their people have more dimensions than that. Issues within the local economy have led many Native Hawaiians to depart the islands in recent decades, oftentimes against their desires. Today, about half of all Native Hawaiians live outside of Hawaii. For born-and-raised Hawaiians who’ve relocated to to NYC, how do they keep their culture alive in the diaspora? And for indigenous Hawaiians who have never lived on the islands, how do they grapple with “not feeling Hawaiian enough”? Guests: Barrie Kealoha, performer and voice-over artist, Kini Kahauolopua, Manhattan-based chef, and Dr. Jack Barile, Interim Director of the Social Science Research Institute at the University of Hawaii-Manoa. Host: Jill Webb Audio producer: Anddy Egan-Thorpe Executive producer: Femi Redwood

This week, Governor Kathy Hochul unveiled a $1.4 billion plan to build a brand new stadium for New York’s Buffalo Bills. However, nearly half of the cost - $600 million, to be exact - is expected to be covered by taxpayer dollars. Despite the price tag, Governor Hochul believes that the stadium will ultimately stimulate the economy. On this episode of 1010 WINS In Depth, we speak with people on both sides of the debate. First, we speak to sports economist Victor Matheson. In his own words, the plan, “it's the largest nominal amount of public subsidy ever for a stadium in the United States.” With the stadium set to be built in Erie, New York, we speak to the public official representing the county, Mark Poloncarz. He explains why everyone, especially locals in the tri-state area, should be excited for what’s to come.
