The Governor took calls and social media questions from all over state.  Governor Murphy joined the show from his home and announced the death toll in New Jersey is up to 44 with more than 36-hundred coronavirus cases in the state.

Tuesday's show was hosted by WBGO News Director Doug Doyle while WNYC's Nancy Solomon and Joseph Capriglione and WHYY's Joe Hernandez helped with the the flurry of social media questions that came in during the one-hour call-in show.

WBGO's David Tallacksen and Corey Goldberg provided the technical in-station support for the show.

Ask Governor Murphy is a WBGO News production in collaboration with WNYC and WHYY.
