Today on the Fab 413, we’re starting a deep dive into the politics light portion of our ethos, because Northampton has a Heavily contested mayoral preliminary going on right now. So for the rest of the week we’ll be chatting with each of the four contestants in that particular race. 

And today we’ll start those conversations with the woman who currently has that seat: Gina Louise Sciarra. We’ll explore how her time as mayor has gone, as well as some of the more controversial issues in the race including the ongoing housing and property tax issues, the question of Picture Main St, the funding of schools, and more alongside NEPM News Room’s Adam Frenier. 

Then we’ll sidle over to the next Hampton on the list for a one man stage show that examines the less titillating positions in the adult entertainment industry. "Near Sex for Work" presents writer, comedian, and actor Daniel Shar’s very clothed, very sex-free contributions to the risque and we’ll talk to him about what that entails exactly, and how he came to be sought after in that industry for doing what seems to be the opposite of what it asks for, and other secrets he'll divulge on the City Space Stage in Easthampton  on Sept 10th.
