NEW YORK (WABC) -- The Blizzard of 2016 dumped the second largest snowfall ever in New York City, more than 26 inches of snow.

This week New York City Sanitation Commissioner Kathryn Garcia joins us to talk about the cleanup: What went right, what went wrong, and what changes she would like to make in the department's plans going forward.

Also this week, former Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a Democrat turned Republican turned independent, is talking of perhaps running for president in 2016.

We'll discuss the presidential race, and a possible Bloomberg entrance, with political consultant Hank Sheinkopf, and analyst and pollster Doug Schoen.

Plus Chris Christie like you've never heard about him before, in a new book: "American Governor: Chris Christie's Bridge to Redemption".
