- 1:38Speaker 1: leave them there.
- 1:38Speaker 2: If you're just leaving the house, now you're in good
- 1:40Speaker 2: shape because you can make a decision. But if you've
- 1:42Speaker 2: already left the house with a backpack, that may be
- 1:43Speaker 2: on the side of the street by the end of
- 1:45Speaker 2: the afternoon.
- 1:46Speaker 1: All right, Hey, you know I found this. I guess

- 2:09Speaker 2: I need to tell you two things and Christine's two
- 2:13Speaker 2: pretty cool things.
- 2:15Speaker 1: The word Knickerbocker traces back to Dutch settlers in the
- 2:19Speaker 1: sixteen hundreds. Actually was a name of a Dutch family,
- 2:22Speaker 1: but in back in eighteen oh nine History of New York,
- 2:27Speaker 1: the pseudonym Ddrich Knickerbocker was the pen name. It also
- 2:31Speaker 1: became knee high loose fitting pants for New York aristocrats.
- 2:37Speaker 2: That's what I think of him as is like mickerbocker.
- 2:40Speaker 1: I think it is a really cheap beer. But they
- 2:42Speaker 1: don't make that anymore.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Er, what about that?
- 2:46Speaker 1: Keep it on ice for about five days and they
- 2:48Speaker 1: finally taste Oh my god, sorry about that. And now,
- 2:52Speaker 1: of course the New York Knicks are champion.
- 2:56Speaker 2: So sticking with the Knicks, the Post has the story
- 2:58Speaker 2: of the kid won the Jalen Brunson lookalike contest yesterday
- 3:02Speaker 2: in Washington Square Park. Lots of adults were in it,
- 3:05Speaker 2: but it was a five year old who won. This
- 3:07Speaker 2: kid Francisco. He's super cute. He's got the little braids.
- 3:11Speaker 2: He won five grand.
- 3:12Speaker 1: Wow.
- 3:13Speaker 2: I mean you put that in a savings account by
- 3:15Speaker 2: the time he's in college. That's some real money. Jalen
- 3:18Speaker 2: Brunson Ashley facetimed the kid, you know, just to say
- 3:20Speaker 2: what's up, and he was too stunned. He couldn't respond
- 3:23Speaker 2: because he's five and everybody was chanting his name. But
- 3:26Speaker 2: really cute, really cute.
- 3:27Speaker 3: More Covey and Christine in the great music Variety you
- 3:30Speaker 3: expect next on light FM, Welcome.
- 3:33Speaker 1: I wonder if it's gonna be her wedding song, you know,
- 3:35Speaker 1: people marching into wherever she's getting married.
- 3:37Speaker 2: July third, right, Yeah, in the city.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Somewhere somewhere, but we'll know about it soon enough.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Today we're all focused on downtown Lower Manhattan. It's the Knicks.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Parade and you are prepared. Oh, you are prepared. It's
- 3:53Speaker 1: Jack and Nina one of six point seven light FM.
- 3:55Speaker 1: You actually were able to get a hat well yesterday.
- 3:59Speaker 2: You know, it's so funny. I actually heard Helen talking
- 4:01Speaker 2: about how she went to the NBA store to get
- 4:03Speaker 2: a hat, and the line was around the block. So
- 4:05Speaker 2: I thought, oh, I'm never going to get one. And
- 4:07Speaker 2: then I was last night or a kind of around
- 4:09Speaker 2: Penn Station and everybody was selling stuff. People have been
- 4:12Speaker 2: selling stuff all week, all during the series, right, but like,
- 4:16Speaker 2: and I thought I would get a hat because I
- 4:19Speaker 2: thought it might rain this morning, and went at the
- 4:21Speaker 2: parade and the one I got, well, it was it
- 4:24Speaker 2: was twenty bucks, and then I didn't have twenty bucks
- 4:28Speaker 2: in cash, and so I went to dinner with my
- 4:29Speaker 2: friend and then I came back and found another guy
- 4:31Speaker 2: who was selling it, and now it's twenty five dollars.
- 4:33Speaker 2: So I went up twenty five percent in an hour
- 4:35Speaker 2: and a half. But this hat is it's a bargain actually,
- 4:39Speaker 2: compared to the NBA store, the official hat. This hat, though,
- 4:42Speaker 2: is the most uncomfortable thing I've ever put on my head.
- 4:46Speaker 2: It is made it's circular, so it's like made for
- 4:49Speaker 2: a bowling ball, so when you put it on your head,
- 4:51Speaker 2: it like scratched for your fore play, made your actually
- 4:56Speaker 2: only putting it on my head is super uncomfortable, but
- 4:59Speaker 2: you know you wouldn't.
- 5:00Speaker 1: No, I think it looks good. Looks good enough the
- 5:03Speaker 1: logo on it.
- 5:04Speaker 2: It's good enough for a parade, for a knockoff, yeah,
- 5:08Speaker 2: or for all right.
- 5:10Speaker 1: We've got more on that and what not to bring
- 5:12Speaker 1: to the parade. That's all coming up Light FM.
- 5:15Speaker 3: More Covey and Chrissine and the great music variety you
- 5:18Speaker 3: expect next onlight FM six.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Point seven Light FM. Good morning, It's Jack and Nina today,
- 5:24Speaker 1: Big day in New York City and Nina, I want
- 5:27Speaker 1: to know where I can get the most confetti.
- 5:30Speaker 2: It's very cool the parade has got you know, it's
- 5:32Speaker 2: all the way up Lower Manhattan. If you want the
- 5:35Speaker 2: most confetti. I think they said there's like twenty five
- 5:38Speaker 2: buildings that accepted confetti because they give it to the
- 5:40Speaker 2: building owners to throw out the windows. Not everybody can
- 5:43Speaker 2: open their windows. No, they just bag it up and
- 5:47Speaker 2: give it to you. So if you want maximum confetti,
- 5:50Speaker 2: you need to be near the city's oldest skyscrapers that
- 5:52Speaker 2: actually have windows that open. That is between Park Row
- 5:56Speaker 2: and Church Streets. Okay, if you can get in there.
- 5:58Speaker 2: The place with the most briefing room is Zuccatti Park,
- 6:01Speaker 2: so you're not like in the old streets and Bowling Green,
- 6:04Speaker 2: which is the beginning of the parade, which might be
- 6:06Speaker 2: kind of cool because that's where folks are lining up,
- 6:08Speaker 2: and we happened to just watch on TV. That's where
- 6:10Speaker 2: it looked like there was still some room in those
- 6:12Speaker 2: pens to get in.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Yeah, it looked kind of empty, but I don't it
- 6:14Speaker 1: doesn't look that way anymore.
- 6:16Speaker 2: No, going up, it's gonna be really tight, I think.
- 6:19Speaker 2: And of course they started letting people in at six o'clock.
- 6:22Speaker 2: You said people were at four at thirty in the
- 6:24Speaker 2: morning on your tour.
- 6:25Speaker 4: No.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Four to twelve train of Picksville was packed.
- 6:28Speaker 2: Yeah, packed, So if you're going get there early. But
- 6:32Speaker 2: you can also we're live streaming it on our stations.

- 6:54Speaker 2: it's fantastic, It's Fantasticy. Then the city needed something it
- 6:59Speaker 2: has been.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Yeah, we've been in a city long enough without.
- 7:03Speaker 2: Everybody never even had a parade before because it was
- 7:08Speaker 2: during Lindsay's term. I learned that earlier Lindsay was cheap
- 7:11Speaker 2: and didn't want to help raise all.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Right, since I'm the you know, the elder in the room,
- 7:16Speaker 1: I will admit that I was around for their last
- 7:18Speaker 1: Oh wow. And I do remember my dad listening to
- 7:21Speaker 1: it on the radio getting gas for thirty two cents
- 7:25Speaker 1: a gallon.
- 7:25Speaker 2: Oh that's amazing. Nineteen seventy three thirty two cents. It
- 7:28Speaker 2: sounds about right.
- 7:29Speaker 1: It was.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember nothing, but I was there. People are paying.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Speaking of prices, people are paying nuts prices. There's a
- 7:38Speaker 2: report from the City Reporter that folks are paying have
- 7:42Speaker 2: paid people to sit overnight in seats, including woman. One
- 7:45Speaker 2: woman from Long Island, a big Knicks fan, paid somebody
- 7:47Speaker 2: seven hundred and fifty bucks to sit overnight so she
- 7:50Speaker 2: could have a spot today.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Now, what time would you have had to show up
- 7:53Speaker 1: because this was something this is something maybe in the future.
- 7:55Speaker 2: Well, they closed the streets yesterday in the evening, so
- 7:58Speaker 2: maybe they've just parked over night, you know, in a
- 8:00Speaker 2: little lawn chair. You can't have a lawn chair, by
- 8:02Speaker 2: the way, if you go today.
- 8:03Speaker 1: You would have to stand or you bring up like
- 8:06Speaker 1: a really thick sweater and lay on it.
- 8:08Speaker 2: Maybe I don't I don't know if i'd want to know,
- 8:11Speaker 2: but someone pays money for it. If you are going there,
- 8:14Speaker 2: that they're doing some really cool things. Speaking of prices,
- 8:16Speaker 2: going back to nineteen seventy three, the MTA is running
- 8:19Speaker 2: the old R thirty two subway cars built in the sixties.
- 8:23Speaker 1: Wow, this is the air conditioners broken.
- 8:25Speaker 2: Probably probably the A line of the MTA is going
- 8:28Speaker 2: to be an express train from Harlem to Canal Street.
- 8:30Speaker 2: So maybe you won't even make it all the way
- 8:31Speaker 2: down to the parade, but you would be on an
- 8:33Speaker 2: old train this morning because of the next So there's other.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Things to do, Yeah, big wise and celebration.
- 8:38Speaker 2: You can buy some bootleg gear all the stuff.

- 12:09Speaker 1: Even though it's Thursday, A lot of people have Tomorrow
- 12:12Speaker 1: off for Juneteenth, So yeah, let's talk about all the
- 12:14Speaker 1: weekend movies on a Thursday.
- 12:16Speaker 5: You know, it is an incredible weekend for the movies
- 12:18Speaker 5: because not only do you have Juneteenth, but you've got
- 12:20Speaker 5: Father's Day weekend, so a lot of people are looking
- 12:22Speaker 5: for something to do. I can't think of a better
- 12:25Speaker 5: movie to see this weekend than Toy Story five. I've
- 12:29Speaker 5: seen it already. I'm going to bring my wife and
- 12:32Speaker 5: kids to see it again on Sunday on Father's Days
- 12:34Speaker 5: just because look, I was tearing up like three times.
- 12:38Speaker 5: I am mister softy when it comes to movies. I cry.
- 12:42Speaker 5: I cry in movies. I can't help it, especially if
- 12:44Speaker 5: it's a Pixar film, and this is really Pixar's best
- 12:46Speaker 5: movie since Inside Out too. I just absolutely loved it.
- 12:49Speaker 5: Oh wonderful you know, the plot of this movie is
- 12:52Speaker 5: a lot of these stories are like origin stories, so
- 12:54Speaker 5: you had I think its toy story two was Woody's
- 12:57Speaker 5: Orangin story. This one is all about Jesse played by
- 13:00Speaker 5: John Cusac, the Cowgirl, and she finds that she is
- 13:05Speaker 5: challenged in her job when face to face she has
- 13:08Speaker 5: to deal with this new tech toy called lily Pad
- 13:11Speaker 5: voiced by Greta Lee from Past Lives, who's so wonderful.
- 13:15Speaker 5: And the whole thing is about the challenge of technology,
- 13:17Speaker 5: And as a New York critic Leah Sidney said, is
- 13:20Speaker 5: it really talks about how we all deal with change
- 13:23Speaker 5: in the face of AI and technology. And I think
- 13:26Speaker 5: the message for the kids about how we have to
- 13:29Speaker 5: kind of limit the screen time and turn off your
- 13:31Speaker 5: phones is just so powerful in this movie, especially when,
- 13:34Speaker 5: like Jessec's House to House, none of these kids are
- 13:37Speaker 5: talking to each other. They're all looking at their tablets,
- 13:39Speaker 5: They're all looking at their phones. And to see that
- 13:42Speaker 5: in a movie on the big screen where you're kind
- 13:44Speaker 5: of forced to turn off your phone and concentrate on
- 13:47Speaker 5: the story that someone is trying to tell you, it's
- 13:49Speaker 5: just to me, who's so moving and beautiful and to
- 13:52Speaker 5: have families coming together at the cinema this weekend to
- 13:56Speaker 5: kind of get this message that we got to talk
- 13:58Speaker 5: to each other, to watch them for an hour and
- 14:01Speaker 5: a half and then cry together, laugh together, have some
- 14:04Speaker 5: nostalgia about Toy Story and then and then have a
- 14:07Speaker 5: beautiful family moment afterwards. It's just for me. It's just
- 14:10Speaker 5: such a beautiful thing. It's a gift to moviegoers. So
- 14:13Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I'm getting kind of touched a little bit.
- 14:18Speaker 5: I know it's a Disney movie.
- 14:20Speaker 4: You know, it's like, come on, it sounds really wonderful.
- 14:22Speaker 4: And you know, if Taylor Swift said it was her
- 14:24Speaker 4: favorite Toy Story and wrote a song.
- 14:26Speaker 2: For it, we know it's got to be good.
- 14:30Speaker 5: We believe in Taylor. Yeah, I know she hears songs
- 14:32Speaker 5: at the very end and stay for the end. Of course,
- 14:34Speaker 5: there's some tags at the end too, But no, it's
- 14:37Speaker 5: just it's it's a fantastic film. It's gonna have the
- 14:39Speaker 5: biggest opening of the year, and there's no question about it.
- 14:41Speaker 5: People are predicting one hundred and forty million. I think
- 14:44Speaker 5: it will go up one hundred and sixty and it
- 14:46Speaker 5: will definitely have a lot of repeat viewing. It's an
- 14:49Speaker 5: exciting time. We haven't seen movies doing this well on
- 14:52Speaker 5: the big screen since twenty nineteen. A lot of it
- 14:54Speaker 5: has to do with movie theaters that have really revolutionized
- 14:58Speaker 5: the movie going experience.
- 14:59Speaker 3: Really.
- 15:00Speaker 5: I spent one point five billion dollars on fixing up
- 15:02Speaker 5: their screens and their sound, and so it's an exciting
- 15:05Speaker 5: time to go to the movie there.
- 15:06Speaker 1: And those seats are so much better than twenty years
- 15:08Speaker 1: ago too. I can feel like I'm at home leaning back.
- 15:10Speaker 5: It's great or better than home. I don't know. I
- 15:13Speaker 5: just I love having that elevated experience as a love.
- 15:16Speaker 5: The concessions are so much better. There's actually healthy stuff
- 15:18Speaker 5: for once that you can eat at the movie too.
- 15:20Speaker 4: Yeah that's good too. We like that too well. Harry,
- 15:23Speaker 4: thank you so much. You always bring us the best news.
- 15:26Speaker 2: Always a pleasure to speak with you.
- 15:28Speaker 5: It's a pleasure to speak to you. I hope you
- 15:29Speaker 5: get some good air conditioning this weekend.
- 15:31Speaker 4: And yeah, movie that is the key air conditioning. Happy
