What’s Good Rochester
What’s Good Rochester replaces the longstanding “CityWise” TV program and its talk show format with an ongoing compilation of entertaining, engaging and informative short-form photo and video essays that highlights positive, topical and interesting aspects of Rochester.
What’s Good Rochester welcomes submissions of community-created videos and photos to compliment its first party content. Submissions can range from life skills, to community heroes, to unique businesses and dining experiences to recreation, culture, arts, history and, really, anything that exemplifies and embodies the character of our great city. Professional production is welcome but not necessary.
Market Flavors
Market flavors is a coproduction of What’s Good Rochester and WXXI. The show is filmed on-location inside the iconic City of Rochester Public Market.
Each episode features a local chef creating an entrée packed with flavor, using fresh and healthy local ingredients available at the Public Market.
