Hour 1: Sending Kids to College IS Not Cheap · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, I have to admit, Larry and Natalie, I suffered
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: separation anxiety because you were away on Friday, Larry doing
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: your family duty, which was to transport your son along
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: with your wife down to the start of his academic
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: He had what I thought was elon Musk University somewhere
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: in North Carolina, but you corrected me. But I have
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: to admit that I had separation anxiety. It was so sad.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Nice to be sad.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: What it is true, As Tom Cuddy, our great program director, said,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: we're better together. So I saw that right away. It's
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: almost like I was missing my right arm here, but
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: we made it through good teamwork. The Quiet Storm Chris
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: on loan from Mark Simone in studio while Natalie continues
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: to combalesce from the Nie surgery.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: Chris, Yes, he did he really? Oh yeah, Oh he
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: was a chatterbox. I was sitting at your seat. I
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: felt that, you know, I had to talk a little
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: bit more, did you. Yeah, I was keeping this. I
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: was keeping your seat warm.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Right now, You've talked more than I've ever heard you
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: talk just this moment.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: So I believe he was on him and Natalie Magliori,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the two of them like chatterboxes. It was great, except
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: we missed you, Larry. But what was it like there
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: because you left when there were threats of inclement whether
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: he and threats of inclement flooding down in the Middle
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Atlantic States.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't hit anything on the way down. On
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: the way back, wow, we hit just torrential thunderstorm, torrential rain,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: lightning flashing all over the place like I had never
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: seen before. And that was in Virginia going into Maryland.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: On the way back. On the way down, it was
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: really nice. Let me tell you something though, And I
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: went on a trip, as I've talked about a few
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: months ago, out west of Wisconsin, and it is incredible.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't want.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: To get political right off the bat, but it just
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: stuck out to me when you go from state to
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: state to state to state. So I went Pennsylvania, Delaware, Washington, DC, Maryland, Virginia,
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: then North Carolina. When I got to North Carolina, I
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: thought I was going to hear the angels sing. It
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: was incredible. The road was nicer, the trees on the
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: side were more beautiful. It was as if I went
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: to another country and everything was less expensive. Gus was
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: three point fifty nine in some places. Other places it
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: was a little bit over three sixty. Yeah, most places
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: it was up to like three sixty five or three
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: sixty four. But wow, it was just so much cheaper
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: for everything. When I went at the lunch, when I
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: went at the dinner, everything was cheaper. And so I
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: just you need to know that most of the money
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: you're paying on things is taxes, and Republican states have
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: lower taxes. That's the big difference between Republicans and Democrats.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Democrats tax a lot, Republicans don't tax as much. That's it.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: And I know, no, he wasn't. And the problem is
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: not my son. The problem is my wife, who I
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: tried to keep from going because I knew that anything
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: he asked for he was going to get.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I get it.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: And they were going to.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: You did the same thing.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: You do the same thing.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Oh my god. They would actually sneak off with and
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: and not tell me so they could buy him more stuff.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: What do you mean, didn't he have enough stuff that
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: you guys were transporting from your home down to his
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: college dorm.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we had plenty of stuff. We had plenty of stuff.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: But when he gets there, he sees what other kids have,
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: and he wants what they have, and he happens to
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: room with some rich kids, and so I'm like, I
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: can't keep up. Let's go to good Will. We'll go
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: over to good Will and see what. That's what I
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: did when I was in college. You could do the
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: same thing. But no, my wife was constantly sneaking off
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: the more expensive places. So she's not going next time.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Oh my god.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: So what did he need that was so incredibly important
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: that your wife had to go out with him to
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: purchase it now before his first day in class. Well,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: he's going to rush.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: For a fraternity and he had to have apparently a
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: blue jacket and some khaki pants for this fraternity and
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: nice clothes, and so she wanted that. That was all
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: she thought about. And then for the whole weekend and
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: she would to rush off. I said, he's got it
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: at home, we can send him that. He doesn't have
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: to get a new one. But they snuck off and
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: they got it.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Pledging for that fraternity does not require a bagging cocaine
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: and distributing it. Like, yeah, you wouldn't be doing that
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: in khaki pants and a nice blue jacket.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: The thing is about Elon. They're all high there anytime
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: or anyway on life. I mean, my god, it looks
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: like a Hollywood set. It is the nicest looking college
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: I've ever seen in my life. I want to go there.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, you sound right now. It was so
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: early into this program, as people are waking up getting
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: ready to get their day's activities in order that you
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: want to move to North Carolina. It's a better quality
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: of life, it's cheaper, the university is the best ever.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: My god, you got one foot out the door. Now.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: What I'm saying is we can be that. It's just
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: that you have to start voting that. Well, that's what
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: the problem is.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you being so honest, because that's why so
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: many people from our area, whether it's Pennsylvania, New Jersey,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: New York, Connecticut, are heading down on North Carolina. You
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: go to Charlotte, the greatest Charlotte area, Rawley, Durham, all
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: those areas. There's all people from the Northeast and South
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Carolina and Georgia and obviously Florida.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: But when I went to Wisconsin, same thing I drove
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: through Indiana, guess was like a dollar fifty lesser. Gal
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: and there were no tolls. Everything looked beautiful. I'm thinking
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: of myself. Life can be like this. Oh my god,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: you have a choice now on Wisconsin or Indiana. I
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: just think people need to make wiser choices when they vote,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: because you just keep voting for more taxes, you keep
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: voting for higher crime, and it's in your head. Oh,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: the other side is bad. Why don't you try it.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Take a trip every once in a while. Just look
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: what the hell the other side lives and what their
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: life is like.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Okay, so that's your son. He's safe and secure, and
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: you made it back with your wife. She's doing her
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: radio performance in Philly this morning. You're with us here
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: where you'll always are. I need to be. But Natalie,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: your son, what does he begin his first day of classes?
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: Well, he's starting his senior year. I have no idea
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: how that happened. Been absolutely insane. Haven't seen him all
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: summer because he's been living there because he had an internship.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: But I believe he starts next week. So I don't
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: get anything except some Vemo requests here and there.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: See, we live the same life. By the way, her life,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: her son is going to be very rich, and I
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: would like to be his best friend.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: How do you know that Natalie sn is gonna be
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: Oh well, how do you know.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Just from all the stories she's telling He's goes to
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Stephens first of all.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Oh man, that's an elite collegen Hoboken.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he goes to Stephens first of all. Secondly, he
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: is an amazing go getter, like he's going out.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Neither of my.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Kids had internships. They were both offered internships. Both of
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: them stayed home and sucked off of us. But her
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: son is like already out in his own is getting jobs,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: is getting internships. He does so well the internships he
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: gets offered a job. I mean, he is a go
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: getter and he's very small. Now let me ask you
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: a question. Natalie your daughter. She's out of college now right, Yeah.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: She finished two degrees a couple of years.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Two years ago, I guess, and half a degree degrees.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: She's a working girl.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: But she's a gen Z right, who likes to socialize
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: with other gen z ers like Chris and Natalie Magleori
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: and that whole cl She would.
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: Love them, by the way, and never met them.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I understand she was at a gin mill. She was
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: at a bar in which they had one of the
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: big seventy two inch big screen TVs, you know, normally
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: promoting sports all the time, most sports bars. Did you do?
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: What?
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: And what happened in the middle of all that? What
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: appeared on the screen At like.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: Twelve o'clock at night? I get a text and you know,
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: you worry. You're like, oh no, what's the matter. And
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: there is a picture of a bar and there is
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: the Curtis Leewa and Larry Menty in the Morning logo
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: on the TV screen. So I'm like, what is happening here?
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: She's like, they have WPIX on and I guess there
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: was your commercial. She goes, I was standing there and
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: I see Larry and Curtis on the screen, so I
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: grab for my phone and I want to take a picture.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: So yeah, there you were at midnight in the bar. Yeah. Well,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: let's play for our listeners what they're hearing on WOR
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: which is now on network television. Thanks to you, our listeners.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: In just five short months, you've made Curtis Leiwa and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Larry Manty New York's number one morning.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Talk radio show under six till nine weekdays on sevent
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: tenor Boy did you tick off your former station.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, you mean the shock Shock shait Rodenberg.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: He claims, you know that he's burying us in the
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: ratings in the mornings. He's not that I need to retire.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I'm not, but he brags what he says are his ratings.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: But I know is his his owner who's a billionaire,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: doesn't advertise attach number one. I wonder why he doesn't
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: do that, because it's all lies. It's all like you
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: got to you gotta be truthful. So here's iHeart, the
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: biggest radio combine in the country. Our division led by
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Tom Cutty, our program director, who has said I have
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: so much confidence in Curtis and Larry that we're going
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: to spend money to advertise this because this is the truth,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: unlike the Shock Shock said Rosenberg, who talks about how
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: great he is when in fact he's not doing that well. So, ay,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: you know, do your thing over there. We'll continue to
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: do our thing. But a company that believes in their
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: product will advertise it. That's always the case, and apparently
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: over w ABC then not too sure if sid Rosenberg's
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: going to be around there all that much longer, or
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: they'd be advertising that if in fact that we're true,
• 10:56

• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Well, they are down, but they're not out. The by
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: own little league team representing New Jersey in the National
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: the Little League World Series finally lost a game. I mean,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: they were on an incredible streak, but they came into
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: a powerhouse led by a kid Iowa, by the way,
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: led by a kid named Anthony Johnson, who I think
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: they need to check his birth certificate because he looks
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: like a young man pitching. He had fifteen strikeouts. Realize,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: at six innings, there's only eighteen outs. He struck out
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: fifteen people.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: So it's almost like it it's almost like the major
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: leagues now. They either hit a home run or they strikeout.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: You know, It's like I was say at the coach,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: realizing how good this kid was on the mound for
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: Davenport against me, on would have told his team start punting.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Let's see if we could get a few people on base.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: You know, let's see if we could scramble this up
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: instead of taking him full swings, like suddenly, with one swing,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: you're gonna hit a home run, which is what the
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Yankees do all the time.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: The kid's twelve, he looks like he's twenty. And the
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: kid throws a curveball. He doesn't just throw a fastball.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: He throws a change up and a curveball. Here he
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: is before they took him out of the game at
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: five and two thirds inning. Oh, I said, there's eighteen.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: The last batter was pitched to by another pitcher. So
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: he struck out fifteen of seventeen.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Three two right down the middle, strikeout number fifteen to
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: end the day for Anthony Johnson Junior.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: What a starry oh he played today?
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he also had a home run and he knocked
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: in three runs.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Now, the only reason he did not finish the game
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: was they have a pitch count, thank god, because these
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: young people are gonna blow their arms out. They're letting
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: him throw curve balls, shinkers at elbow. Can't withstand that,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: but eight anything for victory, right, there should be one pitch,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: two bitches, Actually, fastball, change up, that's it. You should
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: not be able to throw a curve or a shinker
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: in Little League.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I think they actually pulled him out of the game
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: because he had to get to he had to get
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: to work, He had to get to his job and
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: support his family.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: Rod clock Shadow was starting to show.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: It was he was huge. He was a huge kid.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: But they did win on Friday, and so and and
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Mason Rncon had a home run. They're not out of
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: it because it's double elimination, so they have they have
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: another game to go. And uh, as long as they
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: keep winning, they can still do something. I didn't know
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: that they are actually betting odds on Little leg don't
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: tell me that it is not it's not right. No,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: it's not right. Well, hold on, I shouldn't say betting.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: It's the prediction modeh.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, sure, it's still not right. We're going to
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: talk about this with the fake polls. So what would
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: they what would they say and what was the percentage
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: and what kind of money could you make betting on
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Little League?
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Well, like California is plus six fifty, so they're they're
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: favored to win everything. It's California, Texas and Japan Japan.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: I thought this was the American Little League World Series
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: not doing it. They have international international that's wrong. Keep
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: them out. We can play them over there. They should
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: be coming here to Williamsport to tarnish our American sports.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: The World Series, it shouldn't be the World Series. It
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: wasn't always the world's little League World They've they've been
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: foreign teams competing for a long time.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Has any of the member won?
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, they went a lot. Yeah, because there's two brackets.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: There's an American bracket and there's a there's a the
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: rest of the World bracket, and so the rest of
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: the world team always makes the final and usually it's yeah,
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: usually it's like a Japan, a Chinese, Taipei, like they're
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: usually the best teams.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're the best out of the non US teams.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: I stopped paying attention after the American team wins, because
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: that's our World Series, that's our World Series. When you
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: do they do they allow international teams to come and
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: play Major League Baseball to get into the world. They
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: call that the world they do.
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: But no team in another country would beat a Major
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: League Baseball team.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: But I tell you the l A Dodgers is half
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: of Japan's team. Yes, yes, half half of the people
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: on the Dodgers all their stars stars from Japan.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: So when the Cuban team comes in, do they check
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: no certificates?
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: No?
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: In fact, thanks, I'm not sure because they.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Probably all looked like they're twenty six.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Well remember El Duke, El Duke who escaped Cuba, who
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: was in the number one star, who claimed he was
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: like thirty six when he was forty six. Without l Duke,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: we would not have won those World Series that got
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: us back on track against the Atlanta Braves. You know,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: everybody says every other I get it, but El Duke
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: was the difference. And I think now L Duke's like
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: ninety six years old. I think he lives over in
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: t Neck or Tenafly or Alpine or somewhere. But everybody
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: remembers El Duq. You talk about lying how old you were.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the most famous one, Satchel Page, Right, wasn't he like,
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: oh my, fifteen years older than he claimed he was?
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Oh my god. They led him into the major leagues
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: way too late, when he was just the star of
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: the Negro baseball leagues at that time.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: They were both still really good. All right, let's get

• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Hi, Thank you, Dary. Listen to this. The NYPD now
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: has to report shootings even if no one is hit.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Let me repeat that again. They have to report shootings.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Now they didn't before. Even when somebody is hit is
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: not hit. So if somebody shoots at you and missus,
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: apparently it's not a crime. Curtis is gonna break it
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: down next.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Uh remember that situation when that guy walk into the
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: home of a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband and ended
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: up killing them. When they went through the guy's notebook,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: inside there was a handwritten list of eleven websites, not webonsites.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Data brokers had assembled all of the information of the
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: two that he assassinated. People search sites that sell your
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: home address for a couple of bucks and they don't
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: care who they sell it. To type your name into
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: one right now, There you are, your address, your phone,
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: your family's name's a photo of your front door. Anyone
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: can look you up in seconds and you'll never know
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: who did. That's why I use in cogni. It forces
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: data brokers and people search sites to delete you. Then
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: they keep checking on it. They play whack them oh,
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: because look they're not naive, because deleted data creeps back.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Incognate has scrub night info from over four hundred sites.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: While I did exactly nothing but sit back, max and relax.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: You lock your doors every night tonight, lock down your address,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: go to incogniti dot com slash curtis for sixty percent
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: off and share this information with your family and friends
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: and others who are in that same dire situation. Let
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: me spell it out for you. That's I n cog
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: ni dot com slash shirt curtis, because then next time
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: a stranger searches your name, make sure they find bupkis
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: nothing part hilaria. Last week it was all that back
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: and forth about this secondary home tax or what are
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: they call in French, which is the most ridiculous thing
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: I've ever heard with pied a pieddite, right, come on,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: So all the focus of what the city council was
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: doing was on exactly that, with the mayor away on vacation.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: By the way, nobody has found out where he was.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: He's supposed to return today. But it was sort of like,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: why didn't he have anybody there to represent the city,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: And I agree with that there should have been somebody there.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: I had no idea that the issue that I had
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: pushed to the forefront. You've heard me speak about him
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: many times, but also in the campaign that I lost
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: is are on Mandami in twenty twenty five was how
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: the New York City Police Department would not report when
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: shots were fired. It wouldn't be on the CompStat every day.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: There are statistics that come out of a precinct that
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: was put into place when Rudy Giuliani was mayor with
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Bill Bratton, who was his first police commissioner. They wanted
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: to make the NYPD response will for day to day
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: stats in the precinct because before that stats would come
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: out once a year, imagine once a year at the
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: end of the year. Oh, these were our stats, and
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: you couldn't take any corrective measures. So they impose that
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: and it's really done an excellent job in streamlining what
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: cops do and what precinct commanders do throughout the city.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: But I would always walk in to a precinct, especially
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: the Bronx where gangs were having wars, whether it was
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: the four to four, the four six, whatever, the precinct
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: and four to one, and I would say, you know,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: there were shots fired down the block. Is that on
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: your comstat report this way? Curtis, No, what do you mean? No, Well,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: because nobody was wounded, nobody was killed, nobody was hit,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: no human being. So I'd say, you mean if a
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: bird was hit and fell out of a tree, or
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: somebody shot out the back window of a car that
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: was parked while they were trying to shoot their victims,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: that would not be on your stats. Said, nope, it's
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: not on our stats. So oh, this makes you look good,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: like you know, you don't have those shootings in the precinct.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Said it's not up to me, take it up to
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: the boss, which was Jessica Tish. So I remember that
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: day when I had come back from the Bronx campaign.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: It was a vicious drive by shooting and I was
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: having a press conference and the gang had surrounded me
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: and we're like ready to pull out guns, and some
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: of the reporters there would say, we've never been in
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: a situation like this before. I say, hey, stop crying, huh,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: this is real life in the Bronx. But these guys
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: never shoot straight to begin with, so don't worry about it.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: They'll miss me and they'll miss you too, and probably
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: end up hitting a bird out of a tree. And
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: so everybody in the neighborhood is laughing because they know
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: that's true. But the reporters were scared. Jessica Tish and
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Eric Adams had a press conference about this in October
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: of that year. This is after Eric Adams has dropped
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: out and now it's only Zoran, it's Cuomo and me,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: and they viciously attacked me as me making this up.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: It's not true. Anytime shots are fired, it's registered in
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: the local precinct. And I want to thank an individual
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: out there happens to be a Democrat because Councilman Oswald Felis,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: who is from the Bronx, probably was following what I
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: was saying because it was his district where a lot
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: of these shootings were and he created this legislation which
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: would force the NYPD and the Police Commissioner Jessica Tish
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: to acknowledge shots fired at the local precinct as part
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: of comstat It passed on Thursday. Did you know about that, Larry?
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Was there any attention to that? Of course not, because
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: this affects our day to day life and crime stats.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: But I want to salute him and the others who
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: voted for it in the council. And most importantly we
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: recently saw this when we were discussing this Deputy Police
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: commission remember in Mount Vernon, who had a house in
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Soundew in the Bronx, former con from North Carolina who
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: was judged offing that she married and they raised a
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: thug and they took them to the Bronx County Courthouse
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: to see if the gang members that he wanted to
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: assassinate were supposed to go into court that day. And
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: he went inside put a mask on. He saw their
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: names were there, and they went a block away and
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: they laid in wait, and when they saw the gang
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: bangers coming towards court, they opened up the back window.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Under the command of his mother, the deputy police Commissioner,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: mel Vernet. He shot eight times. So I went to
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: the full fourth precinct. I didn't go there. I called
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: up somebody I know. I said, hey, eight shots fired,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: he didn't hit anybody. He needs target practice. But are
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: those on your books? And the guy said to me,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: come on, Curtis, you're just going to create trouble for
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: us here. No, they're not on the books. You know that.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: I said, well, you better tell the police commissioner. And
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: now they have to put it on the book. So
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: thank you. Councilman. Oswald Elise, a Democrat in the Bronx
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: who was able to sell this concept to the rest
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: of his council members, which is not an easy cell sometimes.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is a national problem. It's not just
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: a New York City problem. It's a national problem. As
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: you've ever heard. In Washington, d C. There's a federal
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: investigation right now. Thirteen people are being investigated. Thirteen people
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: were disciplined or had to step down in Washington, d C.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: Because they were pressuring those street cops to not report
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: certain crimes, especially shootings where nobody was hurt. The police
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: chief at the time also had to resign Pamelas Smith.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: Now there's a federal investigation to see if there's going
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: to be criminal charges. But this isn't just Washington, DC,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: and it's not just New York. If you remember, in
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: twenty and twenty one, seventeen major cities recorded record high crime,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: including murder. All of them, well fourteen of them had
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: record high murders, and then all of a sudden it disappeared.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: All of the sudden, we didn't have that problem anymore.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: So there was federal pressure at the time to lower
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: the crime stats, or with the Democratic Party they weren't
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: going to win another election, and so what happened in Washington,
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: d C. What happened in New York is now still
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: happening in Chicago. It's still happening in LA it's still
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: happening in Denver. So you're right in giving a congratulations,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: because for an internal body to look at this, like
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: the New York City Council and understand it's a problem
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: and that it makes the streets more dangerous, not less dangerous,
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: they do deserve congratulations. In Washington, d C. They deserve congratulations,
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: although they knew a federal investigation was coming. And now
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: the Feds should not just look at Washington. But I
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: hope they're especially looking at Chicago right now because even
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: when I worked in Chicago, they fudge numbers and to
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: try to get it down.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: We pay for the technology. Now it's called shot So
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: we have technology. It's the same way you have all
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: these items that transfer your cell calls, you know, on
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: top of buildings. That's how cell calls go from cell
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: phone a cell phone. They have shot spotters in high
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: crime neighborhoods that actually record the shots being fired. They
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: can tell you with specificity, almost within an inch of
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: where that shot was fired. So they have the data.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: They have the analytics. We're paying millions of dollars for that.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: It's good money spent. And then Jessicatish wants to ignore
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: it and say no, no, no, it's not relative. Well not,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: she has no choice.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's all across the country, and I applaud the
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: federal investigation into Washington. I just pray and nudge those
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: investigators do not stop at Washington, DC, because no city
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: should get away with this. This is important. It's important
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: to know. It shouldn't be a political issue. It shouldn't
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: be political at all. It should just be we got
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: a problem we have to fix. But if you don't know,
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: if there's a problem in the first place, there's nothing
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: to fix. And that's exactly what they want. It's abhorrent.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Thank god, what was the name of the council person again,
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: because they deserve.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: That was Oswald Felies, a Democrat from the Bronx who
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: really carried the heavy lifting on this.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: Well, that's wonderful, congratulations. I just hope it spreads across
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: the country because you know, people are dying out there,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: and a lot of it's because people who shot fired,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: who shot at them in the last time and missed them,
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: get to take another shot because they're not behind bars.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Now. Remember years ago when Christine Todd Whitman, the governor
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: of New Jersey, called out Rudy and Patacky, and said,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: you're dumping garbage off shore that's washing right up onto
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: the Jersey shore and a lot of it is hypodermic needles,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: and Rudy and PATACKI said, you're making that up. Well
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: she was right then, And guess what it's happening again
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: in Manusquan. Uh, you're gonna have to break this down.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Frush sure, guy and Natalie paid close attention Jersey show

• 32:37

• 32:42
  Speaker 2: you could be there. Three chances every weekday for you
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: to win your trip for two plus Iheart's going to
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: give you one thousand dollars in spending money. The next
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: chance to text and win happens at nine this morning.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Only here on seven to ten wall for fast. So
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: in Manusquan, a guy just walking along the beach Manusquan
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: Beach came upon a syringe and he looked at it,
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: and he kept walking and he found another syringe. He
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: found a total of five syringes, and he thought, okay,
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: now this is a problem, and he went and told
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: the officials, who, by the way, Manusquan Beach did the
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: right thing. They shut down the beach, They closed the beaches,
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: and they did a search. They ended up finding sixty
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: syringes along the beach. Now they opened up the beach
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: again on Sunday morning because they contacted the Department of
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: Environmental Protection and they said, well, this has happened a
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: couple of times. It's likely because of the heavy flooding
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: was more than the landfills locally could hold and it
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: washed onto the water. And so I think that the
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: reasons given are worse than the syringes found on the beach.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: If you've got a problem where landfills overflow because you
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: have some heavy rain and it comes out into the ocean.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: Don't you think you should fix that? Now, apparently this
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: has happened several times. This isn't the first time it's happened.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: That's how they knew immediately. Oh, we've had this before.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: So if not for this guy, we'll call him a whistleblower,
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: just for purposes of describing him noticing five needles on
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: the beach at Manasquana reporting it. They now claim that
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: they are aware of other instances. Well wait a second,
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: with all their ability to report to bathers or beachgoers, beware,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: there may be needles that are on the beach or
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: even in the water. They decided, hey, let's not say anything.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: It doesn't help tourism.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: You know what this reminds me of.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's back.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I think in the late eighties, early nineties.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: And nineteen eighty seven I covered this. Oh you did, Yeah,
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: I covered this when I was at Eyewitness News. They
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: called it the syringe tide.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. And my dad was a merchant seaman told
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: me years ago, you know, when he would leave the
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: port of Staten Island in Newark, Elizabeth, you go out
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: twelve miles out the sludge barges from New York City
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: would dump the sludge. This is years ago. Then they said,
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna do it one hundred and six
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: miles off you, and he goes, yeah, it would be
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: like a dead zone. You would you would come across it,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: and you say for miles. Now they've discontinued it. You
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: can't do that any longer, So you have to dump
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: it in a landfill. So if the problem is the landfill, now,
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: as you pointed out, Larry, be honest, have transparency, figure
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: out a way to bury that debress so it doesn't
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: wash off into the ocean, you know, through the cavationis
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: or the sewers.
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: Exactly what I what I heard, what the what they
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: were saying was the reason. I thought, well, the reason
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: is worse than the problem. That's that's what you gotta fix.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: But in nineteen seventy, nineteen eighty seven, in nineteen eighty eight,
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: when they had the syringe tide, it wasn't just syringes.
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: It was fifty miles of shoreline and it was sixty
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: beaches at the time, and it cost like a billion
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: dollars to clean it all up. It was a tourism
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: disaster because it made national news. There was two pieces
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: of national legislation to stop that, the Ocean Dumping Act
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: of nineteen eighty eight passed by Congress signed by the President,
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: and the Medical Waste Tracking Act. So they've taken care
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: of that problem, all right. That take care of that problem.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Now I find out this isn't the only time it's
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: happened in Manasquan Beach. It's happened several times, and every
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: single time after that it is because of heavy rain
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: and a landfill then overflowing with rain and pouring garbage
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: into the water. And so if it's happened several times,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: like the way they reacted to this was, oh the syringes. Yeah,
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: that's just a landfill overflowing. No, that's a big, big problem.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: And I don't think you tell me, and maybe there's
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: an engineer out there that can leave a talk back.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: I don't think it would be that hard to that fix. No,
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: not at all.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: And in fact, this goes back to Tom Kinson, New Jersey,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: and you remember he was promoting the Jersey Shore. He
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: was complaining that New York was ignoring the fiduciary responsibility. Then,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: when Christine Todd Whitman became governor, she was blaming New
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: York City for the dumping off shore. At the time,
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Rudy was mayor and Pataki was governor, and they were
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: like taking the coat of Omerta. But it was true
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: all along, New York City was at fault with all
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: of our waste problems because we generate more waste than
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: anyone else, whether it's solid waste, whether it's the sewage
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: and everything that goes out with the sewage. But imagine
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: for years we would send barges out with the sewage
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: and dump it twelve miles off shore.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: Where do you think that was gonna go? Apparently the
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: solution wasn't much better. They were just piling it up
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: in landfills and it was still seeping out. No, I
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: shouldn't say that, I remember, I mean I covered it.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: I remember that was awful. It wasn't just syringes. It
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: was lots of different kinds of waste that was pouring on.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: This is specifically syringes that make it to sure but
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: easy problem to fix. Why doesn't somebody out there work
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: on it? If you're listening New Jersey.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Uh, fix it transparency. Oh my god, don't tell the
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: truth to the people because they won't know how to
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: handle the truth. Yes they will anyway. Up next, Oh,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: Trump was in campaign mode in South Carolina and Jared
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: Kushna had a hush, huge, much much meeting with uh
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: hakeeen Jeffreys. But at seven o'clock, it's the news.
