Governor Malloy meets with his emergency management team ahead of the blizzard.

The blizzard has moved on from Connecticut and we're moving on with our regularly scheduled programming. Our weekly news roundtable The Wheelhouse will recap the week's news, from Governor Malloy's response to the storm, to last week's bizarre capitol cafeteria summit regarding the state budget. Also, one Hartford-based company that benefited from a state economic development deal is in trouble.

GUESTS:

  • Colin McEnroe - Host of The Colin McEnroe Show on WNPR
  • Dan Haar - Columnist for the Hartford Courant
  • Mark Pazniokas - Capitol bureau chief for the Connecticut Mirror
  • Jon Lender - Reporter for the Hartford Courant and writes the Government Watch column
