Early Edition With Joe Mathieu

Joe Mathieu, Karen and Brendan get your work week started with all you need to start your Monday. Hell of a sports weekend for Boston including the acquisition of Antonio Brown, the Patriots rolling in their opener against the Steelers, and the firing of Red Sox GM Dave Dombrowski. Plus Joe talks to MA Governor Charlie Baker this morning in a big two part interview. All that and more on a Monday Early Edition on WGBH.

Joe Mathieu and Karen get you ready for your weekend with WGBH’s Early Edition. The remains of Hurricane Dorian will hit the Cape this weekend with rain and high winds, with rain Saturday for most of Massachusetts. We have your weekend calendar for Boston, but be aware that the MBTA will shut down key sections this weekend to speed up repairs. And the Patriots and the NFL return on Sunday night.

Wake up with Joe Mathieu, Karen and Brendan as they get you ready for your day with another episode of WGBH’s Early Edition. Today is the day that ALL children have returned to school, as Boston welcomes back its students.

Plus Talking Heads front man David Byrne will join us on today’s Morning Edition.

Most of the region is back or headed back to school today, and Joe Mathieu and the Early Edition team want to wish all the returning students well, including a song parody from a school that may make you cringe like it did for Brendon and Karen. Plus money saving school lunch tips, and for the fading Red Sox, there’s at least a shred of a chance that they can make the playoffs.

As you head back to work after the long weekend and send the kids back to school, let WGBH’s Early Edition help you wave goodbye to it all as the unofficial end of summer is here. We have your latest updates on Hurricane Dorian, plus a New England transplant down in Florida has some radical ideas about how to stop Hurricanes, and he’s making everyone with a Massachusetts accent (or is it Rhode Island?) look pretty bad. All that and more on this morning’s Early Edition with Joe Mathieu.

Joe Mathieu and Karen Marshall are back from their road trip to Cape Cod and are ready to bring you all the news this Labor Day.

Plus a surprising amount of people greet us on our live feed, a very pleasant surprise us on a holiday. All that on today’s Early Edition.

Final day for Early Edition On the Road as we visit Cape Cod once again and broadcast live from the Cape Cod Times in Hyannis. Joe Mathieu, Karen and Brendan make us all jealous with tales of their Cape adventures including dunes, historic sightseeing and lobster dinners. Meanwhile in Boston the flood of students returns and people are getting “Storrowed”. We’ll talk to a shark attack victim and get you ready for your Friday with another Early Edition… On the Road.

Our last morning in the WGBH studios before the entire Early and Morning Edition team heads down to our Cape Cod station WCAI to wrap up what was a crazy summer on the Cape. Gronk fools the media and turns a career announcement into a CBD infomercial. Congressman Joe Kennedy is making news again and former Presidential Candidate Seth Moulton will stop by and visit with us this morning. All that and the days news on this morning’s Early Edition.

Thanks for getting up with the WGBH Morning Edition crew. Joe Mathieu tells us about a couple of conflicting Almanac predictions for this coming winter… but one of them predicts a harsh “Polar Coaster” for New England. Brendan is excited for another season of sensationalized storm coverage. Congresswoman Ayanna Presley and “The Squad” will make an appearance on this coming season of “The Simpsons”. That and more as we get you ready for your day on Early Edition.

Joe, Karen and Brendan all return as summer vacations are officially over. We welcome the whole gang back and talk about what we missed… Seth Moulton is out of the race for the Democratic nomination, President Trump’s trade war with China sends the markets in to fluctuation, and another St. Anthony’s Feast is in the books in the North End. All that and more on today’s Early Edition.

The great Henry Santoro is back in the big chair for Joe Mathieu today on WGBH’s Early Edition. Andrew is back from a week off and in for Karen as the long summer of vacations begin to wind down.
