In this exclusive edition of Up Close, we delve into the stories of two influential figures who are stepping away from their prominent roles. A journey through leadership and legacy awaits.
First up, we sit down with New Jersey's outgoing Governor, Phil Murphy. In an insightful conversation, Governor Murphy reflects on his time in office, sharing the triumphs and trials of his eight-year tenure. From policy successes to the challenges faced, he opens up about the impact of his leadership on the Garden State.

In an intimate discussion with Up Close Anchor Bill Ritter, Commissioner Tucker shares his experiences and the reasons behind his decision to step down. It's a conversation that sheds light on the complexities of leadership and the personal journeys that shape it.
