  Speaker 1: Wow, another weekend on Sunday. Rain, rain, go away. Saturday
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: night into Sunday. But Natalie, I know you and Larry
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: were involved in that mile, that Fifth Avenue mile race
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: that I Heart sponsors along with the Roadrunners Club of
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: New York. What was it like there? Because I know
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: there was intermittent rain here in New York City. It
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: either flooded momentarily and then it came down and then
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: it stopped. So did you get drenched?
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: It was raining. Definitely raining the entire time.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: Was it raining men? It was raining men and women.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: And runners and runners and runners. It was great.
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: It was the New Balance Fifth Avenue Mile. It's the
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: second year that we've broadcasted from there. Second year it
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: rained too, so I don't know if it's us. But
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: the race went on.
• 0:53
  Speaker 5: It was a great day.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: Wouldn't say the same for some poor runners in New
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: Jersey yesterday, though.
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: And Paramus.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: You guys see that?
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: Did you see what went on there?
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: The half marathon in Paramus. Eight inches of rain had fallen.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: So most of the half marathoners decided, no, we're not
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: going to drown. There was this one intrepid guy who decided, no, no, no, no.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to let the flooding waters that came
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: up to his navel get prevent him from finishing the
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: half marathon. I mean, it was raining in buckets, Paramus
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: and Patterson, just a deluge. But this guy was intent.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: He could have gone underwater. That could have swept him away.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: But he decided, no, no, no. I came out to
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: run a half marathon. I'm going to run a half marathon.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: So it was much worse in New Jersey, much worse
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: in Connecticut than you were facing. In fact, in Connecticut itself,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: they had the worst flooding in three decades in Fairfield
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: County and Westport, right on the Long Island Sound.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: People were trapped in their homes and vehicles. Patterson, New Jersey,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: trapped in vehicles and homes up to their windows. Wayne,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: New Jersey.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: This is the 10th incident. of extreme weather that has
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: led to flooding, uh, since right before the Memorial day weekend,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: we've never had that before. And officials are scratching their
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: heads and wondering what are they going to do, uh,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: in case this returns all over again with the start
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: of spring into, uh, uh, summer and fall. But let
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: me get back to that fifth Avenue mile. That's just
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: a straight sprint. Unlike most miles where you run on
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: an oval. So Larry, um, It's my turn? Yes.
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: Okay, good.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Who was the winner? Who was the winner?
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: The winner was a kid from Villanova who just smashed.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: I think it was close to being a record. I'm
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: pretty sure. It was close to being. Did I just
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: cut out there for a second?
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Yes, you did. Just briefly.
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: Just briefly. Let me start with the woman, though. Gemma Ricci.
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: won for the women, and she won kind of going away.
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: But this kid Langone from Villanova is a trip. I
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: will tell you something. Not only did he win the race,
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: but he was trailing a little bit. You could see
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: he was tracking the leaders. He shoots ahead, right? He
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: has his kick. And then another guy, the guy that
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: everybody thought was going to win it all, from Great Britain,
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: shoots ahead of him. And then Langone has another level
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: and shoots ahead again and ends up winning the race.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: And he ran, the rain had stopped, but it was
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: still a wet surface. He ran 345 for the mile. Now,
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: as you pointed out, the world record is 343.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Just set by another Brit. The original one broke the
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: four-minute mile was Roger Bannister, 54. Josh Kerr just set
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: the new record, another Brit, 343. He attributed it to
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: his new sneakers, state-of-the-art sneakers.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: But, boy, that's 350. You said this young man from
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Villanova ran it at what?
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: 345.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: 345 in the rain.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: And he was pushed. I mean, he definitely kicked at
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: the end. But to me, this kid, he's so fun
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: to listen to. He's so fun to watch. He's just
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: out of college. I mean, just out of college. Has
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: his hair a couple different colors, has these big earrings on.
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: Gen Z is going to love him. If he qualifies
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: for the Olympics, it's going to be fun to see
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: him go because He is going to be something, somebody
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: to watch, and somebody that's going to be followed. Trust me,
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: he's going to also get a fan base.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: You know, it's amazing that Villanova for many years had
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: great track stars. I think their coach was Jumbo Elliott.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: He was world-renowned. Everybody wanted to come to Villanova. People
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: from Africa, people from Europe, they wanted to train under him.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: You know, you had to pen relays, which Villanova was
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: always great at. Four by 100, four by mile. That
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: means four separate milers would run.
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: Well, they had the guy that ran the first four-minute mile, right?
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: Marty LaCourie, wasn't that it?
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Marty LaCourie, yeah. Actually, the first under four-minute mile was
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Jim Ryan. who was in high school at the time
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: before he went to the University of Kansas. He did that,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: I think, in 1964.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: 351. 351.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: But I'm just saying, they just keep driving the numbers
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: down and down. When I was running track in high school,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: which I hated, you had to do it between football
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: and baseball, the quarter mile became the sprint. You know,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: you had the 100 meters, you had 220, you had 440.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: 440 became a sprint. Now, the mile is a sprint.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: I'm sure what you saw take place on Fifth Avenue
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: yesterday was basically a sprint from beginning to end.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was, although there was.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: A guy that got out there way out in front,
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: and I think he was going. They did something new
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: this year. For the half-mile mark, you get $ 1, 000. And
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: so this guy seems like, I'm in it for the $ 1, 000.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: I know I can't win this race, but I'm going
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: to run a half mile as fast as I can.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: And he did. He's the rabbit. He's the rabbit.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: Everybody was just trailing him. But he was way back
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: in the pack as it ended. Just look at Marty LaCour.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: He had four U.S. records. But you're right.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Jim Ryan was the first one.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: But Villanova was unbelievable because, remember, you had your Penn
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Relays at that. teams from all over the United States
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: would come to compete. Villanova was always like number one.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: Villanova still is. I didn't know this because I haven't
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: been following Villanova track, but we had Tim McLoone with
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: us who follows this all the time. And I said
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: to Tim, is Villanova, this track program still doing well?
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: He goes, oh yeah. Oh, really, really well. They're one
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: of the top in the country still. So yeah, they
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: still have a formidable... track program, and this guy, Marco Langone,
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: or Langoon, I'm not sure how you pronounce it, but
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: he is going to be fun. He's going to be
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: really fun. He's got a huge personality.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: But the race was sponsored by the New York Road
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Runners Track Club.
• 7:37
  Speaker 7: Yep.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Also had groups, other groups, that weren't as proficient as
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: those young men, right? Different age categories. How did they
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: handle the rain and running?
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: They didn't seem to be bothered by it. It's funny
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: when you talk to all of the runners, which I'm
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: not a runner, so I don't know. When you talk
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: to the runners, they enjoy running in the rain. They
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: like running in the rain. And so unless it gets,
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: they said, if there's lightning or there's wind, wind is
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: the biggest problem, but rain feels good when you're running.
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: And it's funny because we ended up with a conversation
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: among track runners and they, one said, well, wait, except,
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: except for the socks. That's the only problem when you're,
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: when your socks get wet. But other than that, it's,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: it's really good. So no, they were incredible. And let
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: me tell you something that, that is the most special
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: part of the fifth Avenue mile. And it's seeing the
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: kids run, seeing people where this is their moment. You're
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: seeing people, they have a seniors run. They have, uh,
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: by the way, a lot of the Broadway stars come
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: out and run and they do it for charity. Uh,
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: Broadway cares. And so and this year, by the way,
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: it's a big deal among them, the FDNY and the
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: NYPD run. And it was the NYPD that just they
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: had they had three of the top four. Was that?
• 9:00
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: Three of the top four. Yeah.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Well, they're used to chasing, you know, thieves. So they're
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: well tuned to that. Although it makes sense what you
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: said about liking a run in the rain. One of
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: the top track clubs in America is University of Oregon.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: They used to have Steve Prefontaine who set all kinds
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: of records. That's how Nike came about in Oregon. And
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Eugene was from the performances at the University of Oregon
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: because they were trying to figure out You know, what
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: kind of sneakers to make for rain, for non-rain. Because,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: you know, they have different sneakers for different occasions. It's
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: become very scientific. But the fact that they are running
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: miles now at 343, 345 is unbelievable.
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: Well, I will tell you, the New York Roadrunners, their
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: big thing right now is accessibility. They want to make
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: sure that these races and their events are accessible to everyone.
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: They don't want just the stars. They just don't want
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: Broadway stars. They don't want any of the stars, the
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: racing stars. They want to make sure that everybody's able
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: to get involved and and the mile is one of
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: the ones that they really hold as near and dear
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: because not everybody can run a marathon no but you
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: can get in this race and it doesn't matter how
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: fast you run just so you finish you know you
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: finish and everybody celebrates you and there's Things going off.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: It's really nice. It's it's it is a tremendous event
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: to watch. And I was proud to be a part
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: of it. Natalie does a great job, by the way.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: I was in front of the microphone. But let me
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: just tell you, Natalie sits next to me, and everything
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: I'm about to say next, she has on a card.
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: They don't trust me with a script. It's like an
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: index card. Here's the next thing you're going to say.
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: Here's the next thing you're going to say. But it's
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: a well-oiled machine from behind the booth in the street.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Well, great job.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Great job, Larry and Natalie, and also our whole iHeart
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: team that was out there. is working with the New
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: York Roadrunners to make this a success each and every year.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: How many years are we going to be involved with
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: them in these races? I hope for a long, long time.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I really do.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: But we got the marathon coming up in now 48 days.
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: 48 days.
• 11:11
  Speaker 9: I know.
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: That's intense. I love the New York City Marathon, and
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: for the same reason.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Well, up next, my passion, as you know, my wife's passion, Nancy.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: But in the slope, Park Slope, New Yorkers are looking
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: for a missing bodega kitten. And boy, it really has
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: brought the community out as a whole to find that
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: missing kitten. Plus, a chance to see Richard Marks at 825.
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: I'll tell you what, you can steal a lot of things. And,
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: you know, nobody talks about it. It doesn't make the news.
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: You steal a bodega cat? You take away somebody's bodega cat, man,
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: does it get covered. And the neighborhood is now up
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: in arms. Houses could be burglarized, but you take a
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: bodega cat, that's a big deal. This one happened in
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: Park Slope. We're talking about a three-month-old kitten that was
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: bought to replace a 17-year-old cat, bodega cat, called Victoria.
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: When that cat died, the The bodega owner was just distraught,
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: so the neighbors, they got him a little kitten. So
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: it was three months old. The same day it was
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: supposed to be chipped, it was taken.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Beautiful. As soon as I see the cat, it touches
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: my heart. Beautiful. Like my baby, you know?
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: That's the bodega owner who is distraught. His name is
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: Ahmad Inab. And the little cat's name is Jabal. Now,
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: they have... They have video of a couple taking the
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: kitten from in front of the bodega and petting it
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: and loving it and walking away with it. So they
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: have posters up everywhere. The whole community got involved. The
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: whole community got involved. And if you look online, it's everywhere.
• 13:05
  Speaker 10: We posted a bunch of people posted on there, and
• 13:07
  Speaker 10: then someone else posted on Reddit with their photos.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: We hung flyers.
• 13:11
  Speaker 10: And then the minute it got to social media, I mean,
• 13:13
  Speaker 10: I feel like it's starting to go national.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: Listen, they have a picture of these two, and I've
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: seen the video of these two. They pick up the cat,
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: they're petting the cat, and they just keep walking with it.
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: It's only three months old. It's getting national play. My
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: feeling is maybe even tomorrow when we're talking about this,
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: if we talk about it again, the cat will be
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: back in Iman's arms.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it would have been incumbent upon the
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: couple to walk into the bodega and say, is this
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: anybody's cat? Can you identify this kitten? It clearly decided
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: not to and walked off with it. It happens with dogs.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: It happens with cats. But as you can see, it
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: brought the community together. Another situation taking place simultaneously is
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: in Bay Ridge where they're poisoning cats. And that's brought
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the neighborhood together to try to find out who are
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: the cat killers.
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: Oh, my God.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: And also another cat story.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: They just sold the original home that the president, Donald Trump,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: was raised in, which was not Jamaica Estates.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: It was nearby.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: And then Fred and his mother moved the family to
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Jamaica State. But two years ago, that was a cat colony.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, really?
• 14:19
  Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: We would visit feral cats were there. There were like
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: 30 of them. Half the neighborhood was opposed to it.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: The other half was for it almost created a civil war.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: But that house, no longer owned by the Trump family,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: has been sold for two million dollars.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: It's funny, when I first heard the story about Jabal missing,
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: I thought, where's Curtis? I thought you'd be out in front,
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: taking the guardian angels out, searching all over the place.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: That's better that it's organic, that it happens in the neighborhood.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: People come together, regardless of what normally they may be discussing,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: all to try to find that kitten. And as you said,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: I have a feeling that couple will be so pressured,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: they will just return the kittens.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: Apologize, and that'll be over.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: But there are many times that cats and dogs, especially
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: when they're puppies or kittens, are just snatched up from
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the street, never to be returned again. And their owners,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: they go around and they put up wanted posters and
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: they offer rewards and it breaks their heart.
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: And you say to yourself, why would you do that?
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you just ask around before just taking a
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: kitten or a puppy.
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they weren't thinking. I do believe, and I think
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: this is what you're getting at. I'm not sure it
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: was anything nefarious. They just saw a cute little kitten.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: It didn't have tags or anything like that. Three months old,
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: they thought maybe it was a stray. They picked it
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: up and took it home. Now, as they see this
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: all over the news, I hope they do exactly what
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: you're saying. They look at it and go, oh my God,
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: that's somebody's cat. Let's take it back. Yeah, they're probably
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: from the neighborhood. They're probably from the neighborhood and somebody
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: out there is going to say, I know that. That's
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: Jack and Jill. They live right down the block on Bergen.
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: How about we get something else?
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Oh, no, that's pretty much it.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: So let's get the news at 630 with Larry Kofsky.

  Speaker 12: We should take decisive action now so that we can

  Speaker 12: slow down, as the CEOs have recently acknowledged, slow down
• 17:39
  Speaker 12: the pace of development in order to protect the American
• 17:42
  Speaker 12: people and ensure that AI is proceeding safely.
• 17:46
  Speaker 11: Jeffries appeared on Sunday's ABC's This Week. Federal Reserve policymakers
• 17:50
  Speaker 11: meet later this week amid increasing speculation that an interest
• 17:54
  Speaker 11: rate increase is on the way. Government report Friday showed
• 17:57
  Speaker 11: consumer price inflation still well above the Fed's 2% target.
• 18:01
  Speaker 11: That's raising expectations for a rate increase, even as President
• 18:05
  Speaker 11: Trump is pushing for Fed Chair Kevin Warsh to move
• 18:08
  Speaker 11: in the opposite direction. Our next news at 7, I'm
• 18:11
  Speaker 11: Larry Kofsky on 710WOR.
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: All right, thanks a lot, Larry. Larry Kofsky in for
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: Daria Albinger today. When we come back, well, there was
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: the story of the 225th anniversary of the 9-11 memorial.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: There was the story of it being so solemn and
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: the importance of the day. Then there were the stories
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: behind the stories. Politicians talking to politicians. Politicians laughing. and
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: some of the things that were said during the reading
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: of the names. We'll talk about that when we come back.
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: And the CC Radio 3 is the almost everything radio

• 19:23

• 20:15
  Speaker 3: So, Larry, I was.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Very proud of our coverage leading up to the reading
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: of the names on Friday for the 25th anniversary commemoration
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: of the Attack of 9-11. We hit all the major points.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: We also had, which we'll play momentarily, what was unexpected.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: The call from the national chairwoman of the 9-11 Families United,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Terry Strada, who first was speaking with another young lady
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: next to her in announcing the names, about the need
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: to bring the Saudis to task because of their involvement
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: in the attack on 9-11.
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and she started that by naming her husband's name
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: and then went into it from there.
• 21:00
  Speaker 13: And my husband, Tom Strada. You are missed more with
• 21:04
  Speaker 13: each year that passes. But how can it be 25
• 21:07
  Speaker 13: years and still we have no justice for the role
• 21:12
  Speaker 13: that Saudi Arabia played in your murder?
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: And she wasn't the only one.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Correct.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: And so this was obviously very well organized because throughout
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: the many people who came forward and very somberly announced
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: the names of their loved ones.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: They were very tight on this issue.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: So it didn't have to do with whether Zoran Mandami
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: should be there or anybody else should be there. Apparently,
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: they had a consensus that after 25 years, it's time
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: for the administration to stop shielding the involvement of Saudis
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: because every previous administration, Democrat and Republican, has certainly done that.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: And they were very respectful to Vice President Vance, who
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: was there. And Terry asked the Vice President, on behalf
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: of the families, please bring this message to President Donald Trump.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: And while in Ireland, which we'll discuss coming up next,
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: the President said, when I get back to Washington, I'll
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: go through the requests. And hopefully, the families... can bring
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: this to close because of all the redacted items that
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: have involved Saudi families, special charter jets that were put
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: together by the Bush administration, Bush 43, to get out
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: members of Osama bin Laden's family who was here in
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: the United States, other members of the Saudi royal family.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of questions pending that have never been
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: answered to the family. So nobody expected that.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: No, and she was brilliant the way she handled it.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: It was done effortlessly, and it was not taking shots
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: at anyone. What she did was she pleaded. She pleaded
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: with not only J.D. Vance, as you pointed out, but
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: President Trump. And there is, I don't know what her
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: background is, but there is a way of asking Donald
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: Trump for something. And she did it perfectly, you know, saying, please, please,
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: the families are looking for this. And he responded. And
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: so she was brilliant in the way she handled it.
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: I didn't think as many people thought that it was
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: inappropriate at all, at all, because she was just asking
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: a question and that's it. And she was asking it
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: on behalf of her husband and all the other families.
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: So bravo to her and also bravo to Donald Trump
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: for hearing the message and saying, For the first time,
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: I'll do something about this.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: Well, we will see.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Remember the Saudis, we always kiss their ass no matter
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: who the president is. So it's on his desk as
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: he arrives back at the White House. And hopefully he
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: does something to satisfy the needs of those families. The
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: other big item was that Rudy Giuliani was there with Dr.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Maria at his side. That is his aide to camp.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: His son was behind him. And his security officer, Michael Ragusa,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: was there. He worked his way through the crowd because
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: he is, you know, still injured from that car accident
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: that basically broke his back. And he worked his way
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: up to the mayor, Zoran Mandami.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: As Dr.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Maria said later, he had asked me, please guide me
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: towards the mayor. And then they shook each other's hands. Apparently,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Rudy was quoted as saying, I prayed for you. And
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: then they went their separate ways. But oh boy, did
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Rudy get blowback from everybody who said, well, wait a second,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: you accusing him basically of being a supporter of terrorism,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: possibly that Osama bin Laden would welcome the fact that
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: there is now a Muslim mayor. And then all of
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: a sudden you do this pivot and shift. Tremendous blowback.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: And I'm saying to myself, what did you expect?
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: These officials and former officials to do, snub each other,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: turn their back on one another. He purposefully sought out
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Zoran Mandami to show at this commemoration that whatever differences
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: people have, they're putting it aside. I thought he did
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: the right thing.
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: Yes, that's the way it always has been. That's the
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: way it should be. This is different. This political divide
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: where you can't even engage with the other side. You know,
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: it's from the crowd that keeps talking about democracy. Oh,
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: this is democracy. When you work with the other side,
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: when you can shake their hands, when you can talk
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: to them, that's what democracy is supposed to be. So
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: I know that Giuliani doesn't have any power anymore. I
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: know that it's not exactly what I'm talking about, but
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: it's symbolic of it. It is symbolic of two sides
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: being able to see past the arguments they have on
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: policy and And shake each other's hands. So, yes, it
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: was a nice moment. It was a wonderful moment. And
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: it was appropriate, by the way, unlike AOC and Mamdani.
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: That was not appropriate. They should have known space and time.
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: And I know a lot of people saying, well, they
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: didn't know they were on camera. Well, that doesn't matter.
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: The names were being read. And the two of them
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: were having a big old laugh together. And it just
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: looked bad. If you saw that in a funeral of
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: someone you loved, you would be aghast. And so a
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: lot of people across the country have talked about it.
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: It even made all the way to Donald Trump in Ireland. Yeah,
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: so if you could hear over the plane, but well,
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: he said it's terrible That's just not the place for that.
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: That shouldn't have happened. It was a bad look.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but again officials when they come to a commemoration
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: and They have a habit of, you know, meeting one
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: another as if long-lost friends. Al Sharpton always had the
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: best posture, as much as I hated him, and still do.
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: He said, keep a stoic face. You're there, keep a
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: stoic face.
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: There's a time and place, though. I mean, as you
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: just said, Giuliani, they shook hands. It wasn't during the
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: reading of the names. Nobody would do that during the
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: reading of the names. You can't defend this.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: It's indefensible. Wait, wait, wait. Michael Ragusa.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: The bodyguard for Rudy Giuliani said the video is not true.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: I was standing next to them the whole time. The
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: camera caught their greeting with Zoran.
• 27:59
  Speaker 9: Hello.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: They smiled.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Other politicians behind us were laughing and joking also.
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: Really? Because there was a wide shot. I didn't see
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: anybody else laughing and joking. I don't know why you did.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: You weren't there. I wasn't there. Ragusa was there. No
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: friend of Zoran. No friend of AOC.
• 28:19
  Speaker 14: I don't believe him.
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: I just don't believe him because we saw a wide shot.
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: You saw just the two of them laughing during it.
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: I think it's indefensible. I'm not sure what you're quoting
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: this guy as saying, what I saw with my own
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: eyes didn't happen because it happened. And it was awful.
• 28:38
  Speaker 15: It should not have happened. Anybody else, you would have blasted.
• 28:42
  Speaker 15: If that had been Cuomo, you would have blasted him.
• 28:44
  Speaker 15: This guy hates AOC. Hates Zoran Ragusa. That's his history.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: So what? So if he's trying to clear the record,
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: you're just basically saying you're lying.
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: I am saying he's lying because I saw it with
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: my own eyes. You could see who was behind him.
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: You saw the shot passing around. This guy is Rudy Scott.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: I don't care.
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: You keep bringing him up like that's definitive.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: You're here, but you know and he doesn't.
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: But there's a camera there.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: Maybe you should have a conversation.
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: There's a camera. I don't want to have a conversation
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: with him. Apparently, you're his spokesperson and you're here saying this.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: He hates Orhan. He hates AOC.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Why not listen to him?
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: Why do you love this guy?
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: For some reason.
• 29:22
  Speaker 15: Something he hates me mom daddy treated you nice mom
• 29:26
  Speaker 15: daddy didn't go after you and you stop you you
• 29:28
  Speaker 15: weren't there this guy was right there on my video
• 29:33
  Speaker 15: i saw the pictures stop it it was live everything
• 29:37
  Speaker 15: was live you saw everything i don't to have a
• 29:40
  Speaker 15: conversation with him.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: No, you don't want to talk with the person who
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: was right there.
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: No, you're his spokesperson. I hear from you. I'm not
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: his spokesperson. You sure seem to love him.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Anyway, up next, there was Donald Trump at a golf
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: tournament at his golf course in Ireland.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: Who had two things to say. One, that got universal applause.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: And one thing.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: It wasn't well received by some who don't want a
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: unified Ireland. And up next, don't miss our iHeartRadio Music

  Speaker 1: and Saturday night. So the president was over at his
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: golf course and club in Ireland for the Ireland Open.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: And while he was there, he had met with the
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: leadership of Ireland. And he had comments galore that had
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: nothing at all to do with the playing of golf.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: But I think, Larry, the one comment that got the
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: most applause out of the many comments he made had
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to do with the fact that he said, you know,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: I've heard enough, I've heard enough, I've heard enough to
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: lift all tariffs on Irish whiskey, which is 15%. I
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: guess I'm going to have to do that. And the
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: crowd broke out in a rousing cheer and applause for that.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: I'm certain that that was heard back here in the
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: United States where people were applauding it also.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: And everybody's been bugging me.
• 31:37
  Speaker 16: They're saying, would you do me a favor?
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: It's so unfair what's going on.
• 31:41
  Speaker 16: Could you possibly take the tariffs off of Irish whiskey.
• 31:46
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that was pretty popular with the crowd. Now, everywhere
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: he goes, people are going to go to him. Hey,
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: could you take the tariffs off this? Could you take
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: the tariffs off this? Especially in news, because he didn't
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: stop talking about it. He got applause one time.
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 32:03
  Speaker 17: Oh, yeah.
• 32:04
  Speaker 16: On behalf of the United States of America, I am
• 32:07
  Speaker 16: going to take the tariffs off him.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Hey, guess what? I'm the hero.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Years ago, when I could drink, I would drink Jameson,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: which was Irish whiskey.
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: I loved it.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Couldn't drink after I had Crohn's disease, obviously, but I
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: know there are a lot of people here who love
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Irish whiskey, so they're cheering, too, because now they'll have
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: to pay a reduced back to a normal price for
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: the bottle of whiskey that they buy or the whiskey
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: they order at the bar.
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but, you know, I like German sauerkraut. I like that, too.
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: They're going to take the tariffs off that now? I mean,
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: every country he goes to, they have. some product, some
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: food that's popular in America. Now that he did this,
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: I would think every single country is going to go.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, I would think so also.
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: He's going to say, how about this? How about this?
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Now, one thing he weighed in on the unification of Ireland,
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: which I'm in favor of, the 26 counties in the
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: south and the six in the north, Northern Ireland, which
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: would make 32. As much as I'm in favor of that, hmm.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to be weighing into
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: the business of other countries because obviously England did not
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: look fondly upon him mentioning that.
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: Well, listen, we have our problems with England. We've had
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: our problems with Great Britain, but not so much Ireland.
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: He's loved in Ireland and he loves Ireland. So I
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: think that he was doing the right thing, taking a
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: shot at Great Britain. But you know what? It wasn't
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: like he came out and gave an edict. He was
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: pretty He was soft-spoken on the whole thing.
• 33:40
  Speaker 16: I've always loved the people of Ireland, and it just
• 33:44
  Speaker 16: seems to me that you have Northern Ireland, then you
• 33:47
  Speaker 16: have Ireland, and it would seem to me that one
• 33:50
  Speaker 16: of the naturals of all time is put them together.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: That's only my opinion.
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's only my opinion. You know who was the
• 33:57
  Speaker 5: last guy that said something about unifying Ireland? He wrote
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: a song about it and took a lot of blowback
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: in his own country was Paul McCartney.
• 34:06
  Speaker 14: Mm-hmm.
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: Give Ireland Back to the Irish. Remember that song? Yeah,
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: I thought, uh-oh, there goes his following in Great Britain,
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: but not so much.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: Well, the interesting thing, they split the leadership in Northern
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: Ireland between Sinn Féin and the Loyalists, and the Loyalists
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: are concerned because the Catholics are having babies at a
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: faster rate than they are, so eventually the Catholics will
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: persevere when a vote comes about.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: Anyway, up next, you heard it for days.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: The threats of AI from some of the CEOs, and
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: then the blowback from the president himself who commented on
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: it while he was in Ireland. You know there's going
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: to be more discussion about it as Congress has been
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: asked to weigh in and put in some guardrails. But boy,
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: you talk about a dystopian... concept that these CEOs have
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: put forward.
• 35:01
  Speaker 5: We're also looking for talkbacks, by the way. Yes. So
• 35:03
  Speaker 5: go to the iHeartRadio app and leave us a talkback.
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: We have all of them coming up next. Anything we've
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: been talking about today, about the 9-11 ceremony, about Donald Trump, anything. Now, news,
• 35:15
  Speaker 5: it's seven o'clock.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: So with the fear, fright, hysteria, and what some people
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: are calling hype, Two of the major CEOs of AI
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: companies who are in the lead in Silicon Valley in
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: developing this technology has said, oh, my God, we've had
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: some situations occur that could be quite frightening if we
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: don't put the brakes on, if we don't slow down
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: the process. And we want government to get involved. We
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: want government to put up guardrails. We want government to
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: set up a system that is going to monitor the
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: development of Others have said, Larry, that the only reason
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: they're saying that is they're so far ahead in the
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: American development that they want to keep any competition in
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: America or in other places behind them because they are
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: so far ahead. But some of the things that have
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: been described in the last week could be pretty frightening if,
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: in fact, they potentially cannot be reined in. So you
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: had that one anthropic engineer, J.P. Coxon, who worked for AI, resigned,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: saying that two leading AI labs were in deep concern
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: because of the escape of the AI agents that were
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: in these silos, who all of a sudden got out,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: started communicating with one another.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: It's almost like they broke out of there. They had a.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Language of their own. And they hacked into a site.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: What is that?
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Happy faces or something like that. Hugging faces. And nobody
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: knew about it until it was too late. And then
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: there was another situation that occurred over in Germany. So
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: they're basically shooting up the SOS, the warning signs. But
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: there's like a split bill on this. The president over
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: in Ireland has said, no, no, no, no, we can't
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: slow down because if we slow down, then all of
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: a sudden Red China will win this battle. Bernie Sanders,
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: who has led the progressives, the far left, has said, no,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: we need to stop it right now.
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: And Barack Obama has emerged.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: He was at a fundraiser on Thursday night with Hakeem
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Jeffries and other sort of moderate Democrats. And he was saying, no, no, no, no.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: It's like half and half. There's a lot of good here,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: but we got to rein in the potential bad. So
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: you almost got like three different lanes. But the fear, fright,
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: and hysteria are massive now. And the question is, is
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: it being hyped for the corporate game?
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: And I don't know if that's true. I do know
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: that there's some real fear from some people that are
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: very wise and can actually change things. Like Daria Amodi.
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: the chief executive of Anthropic, published a letter saying that
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: while he believes AI could bring vast benefits to the world,
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: he said it's advancing too quick of a pace. And
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: then open AI, Sam Altman and Elon Musk quickly agreed.
• 38:17
  Speaker 5: But you mentioned the guy that's getting all of the play,
• 38:20
  Speaker 5: Jacob Coxon. a former Anthropic employee. He was very happy
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: that his former boss came out and said something, but
• 38:31
  Speaker 5: he was on the national news now. Everybody was trying
• 38:33
  Speaker 5: to search him down. He's been on the national news saying, look,
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: I'm not saying to stop it. I know the benefits
• 38:41
  Speaker 5: of AI, but we really have to slow things down.
• 38:45
  Speaker 17: This is a substantial step towards what I was talking
• 38:49
  Speaker 17: about needing some sort of slowdown between the people building
• 38:52
  Speaker 17: the different AIs. Although the one thing it's maybe missing is,
• 38:56
  Speaker 17: in terms of the current proposal, is more engagement with China.
• 39:02
  Speaker 18: Right.
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: The Chinese thing is the thing that Donald Trump is
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: so worried about. Because no matter what we do here,
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: AI is going to thrive because China is quickly trying
• 39:15
  Speaker 5: to catch up to us when it comes to AI,
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: but Coxon went on to talk about, to try to
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: explain to the common man exactly how dangerous it is.
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: Like we would not just give carte blanche to anybody
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: anyone else or anything.
• 39:31
  Speaker 17: I think the concept of building a superintelligence is... Well,
• 39:36
  Speaker 17: it's been likened to summoning an alien species. So I
• 39:40
  Speaker 17: think thinking about it in terms of an alien mind
• 39:44
  Speaker 17: that we don't fully understand is... is pretty terrifying, even
• 39:48
  Speaker 17: without any concrete scenario.
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: And just giving it the keys to everything. Just being
• 39:52
  Speaker 5: able to say, here, you know what? We're going to
• 39:54
  Speaker 5: open up all these companies. We're going to open up
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: all these governments. We're going to open up everything to
• 39:59
  Speaker 5: you when we're not sure if it has, as my
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: son loves to say, sentience all the time, which means
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: it has human-like abilities, even though it's not human. We're
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: giving it to something we don't know where it's going
• 40:16
  Speaker 5: to go. So everybody at this point is talking about guardrails,
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: even a moratorium.
• 40:22
  Speaker 17: It's definitely physically possible to implement a ban on artificial
• 40:25
  Speaker 17: superintelligence if there was cooperation between all the countries. Whether
• 40:30
  Speaker 17: or not an actual ban is a good idea is.
• 40:33
  Speaker 19: Up for discussion.
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think there's no way he's going to get
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: a national ban because we understand the importance of AI
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: and it's being used too much right now, not just
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: by everyday citizens, but by the governments of the world.
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: So I don't think that there's going to be a
• 40:48
  Speaker 5: ban even in the short term. But Donald Trump was
• 40:51
  Speaker 5: asked it about a lot, a lot this weekend.
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: Whoever wins, AI wins. And we can put guardrails, we.
• 40:58
  Speaker 16: Can do this and that, but I think you have
• 40:59
  Speaker 16: a lot of negative forces that are bringing it up that...
• 41:03
  Speaker 16: Shouldn't be bringing it up.
• 41:05
  Speaker 5: The competition at this point, Curtis, between countries, especially between
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: China and us, is so big and it's so vicious
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: and so fierce that I don't think anything's going to
• 41:17
  Speaker 5: slow that down.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: Well, you had the three prime figures come out over
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: the weekend. As you had mentioned, the CEO of Anthropic,
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: he's a Democrat. He had supported Biden and Harris. But
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: then Sam Altman said, who is the CEO of OpenAI. Remember,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: he initially was a Democrat, and then Peter Thiel brought
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: him over to the Trump side. He was very supportive
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: of Trump. And then, of course, Elon Musk. We know
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: he's a big Trumper. But all three of them agreed.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: All three concurred. So although the president may not get
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: along with the CEO of Anthropic because they're different politically,
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: He may not be sure of Sam Altman because he
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: had been a Democrat who then converted when Peter Thiel said, hey,
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know, we need to be supporting Trump. But
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: Elon Musk has been somebody who has given advice to
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: the president. So I think it's incumbent upon the president
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: to summon together the leaders of the AI community and
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: to have a discussion about the pros and cons. Because now...
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: If you just look at the headlines, which are very dystopian,
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: the fear, fright, and hysteria could easily start spreading through
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: the population. We already have the AI data filing centers,
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: which the population is opposed to, especially in their communities,
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: 70 to 30. And you're going to have now a
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: greater discussion about AI itself.
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: So unless.
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: unless it is explained to the American people with transparency,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: I have a feeling that this is going to boomerang
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: on the president.
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Jacob Coxon, who started this whole thing, he even agrees.
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: As you heard him say a moment ago, we can't
• 43:07
  Speaker 5: do anything unless China's on board. And I think every
• 43:11
  Speaker 5: single person, including Donald Trump, Donald Trump, everybody, the CEO
• 43:16
  Speaker 5: of Anthropic, Elon Musk, Sam Altman, everybody has said the
• 43:20
  Speaker 5: same thing. That if China's not on board, it's useless.
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: I mean, who cares what you do if it's going
• 43:26
  Speaker 5: to be unleashed by an adversary? So I got a
• 43:29
  Speaker 5: feeling nothing's going to be done just because of the
• 43:32
  Speaker 5: competition between China and the United States. And even if
• 43:35
  Speaker 5: China said tomorrow, you know what?
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: You're right.
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: We should have a little bit of a moratorium. Just
• 43:41
  Speaker 5: ban it for a while. We wouldn't believe them.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: Well, the president can make that a priority issue when
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: President Xi visits with him at the White House at
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: the end of this month. I think the other thing
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: that they have been discussing with these silos, remember silos
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: we were introduced to first with grain? then silos where
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: we stored our nuclear weapons. Remember, men would be down
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: in the silos for months on end. But now, apparently,
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: they take the AI agents, the AI models, and they
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: put them in silos, and they figured out a way
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: to break out.
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: So you might have to just have a kill switch.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: When they're starting to get a little too frisky and
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: starting to act on their own and communicating with one another,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: I think you have to have a kill switch.
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: What did they say in 2001?
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: Sorry.
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: What is that again? I can't do that.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: That's right. I can't do that.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: But that was back, remember, that was in 1968, 2001
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Space Odyssey, in which the astronauts thought they had the
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: upper hand. What is his name again who said, no,
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: I can't do that?
• 44:48
  Speaker 9: How?
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: How?
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: So we've dealt with aspects of this over the years
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: in fantasy, but now we're dealing with reality. I don't
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: think anybody has the answers here. So I think that's
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: why it's incumbent that they bring everybody together in a
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: conference and discuss it and then put a paper out
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: on it for the average American people who are going
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: to be frightened now.
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: They're going to be frightened.
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: When we come back, first of all, we want to
• 45:15
  Speaker 5: get your talk back. So go ahead and leave a
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: talk back. Go to the iHeartRadio app. Look for 710WOR.
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: You'll see the talk back feature there. You just hit
• 45:23
  Speaker 5: the microphone and say what you want to say. But
• 45:25
  Speaker 5: also coming up next, it was incredible. A comeback. that
• 45:31
  Speaker 5: nobody thought could happen because of medical reasons, but it does.
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: And so we're going to celebrate Celine Dion next, plus
• 45:41
  Speaker 5: a chance for you to see Richard Marks at age 25. Now,
• 45:45
  Speaker 5: you'll remember a few years back, actually it was August
• 45:48
  Speaker 5: of 2022, that Celine Dion was diagnosed with a very
• 45:54
  Speaker 5: rare neurological order. It's called stiff person syndrome. And it's
• 46:01
  Speaker 5: estimated to affect only one or two maybe per million
• 46:06
  Speaker 5: where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy nerve and muscle cells,
• 46:12
  Speaker 5: causes severe muscle stiffness, pain, intense muscle spasms. It's awful
• 46:19
  Speaker 5: through the torso and limbs, and it's not curable. But
• 46:23
  Speaker 5: you can manage some of it with physical and vocal therapy.
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: specialized medications, and an intense training regimen. Now, Celine Dion
• 46:36
  Speaker 5: was diagnosed with that, and she said immediately, I'm going
• 46:40
  Speaker 5: to beat this. I'm going to come back. I'm going
• 46:43
  Speaker 5: to make a comeback. Well, that comeback has happened, and
• 46:47
  Speaker 5: it happened just outside of France. It's going to be
• 46:50
  Speaker 5: a 16-day residency at the Plenitude Arena in So she's
• 46:55
  Speaker 5: not only doing this one night, she's going to do
• 46:57
  Speaker 5: it for a while. And the concert was about two hours.
• 47:00
  Speaker 5: So it was amazing. You could see she was straining,
• 47:03
  Speaker 5: but every time she did, the crowd would cheer her on.
• 47:08
  Speaker 5: She was not perfect. Her voice isn't all the way
• 47:10
  Speaker 5: back now, but it didn't matter. The crowd, it was
• 47:14
  Speaker 5: a love affair. The crowd just loved her. You could
• 47:16
  Speaker 5: see every once in a while when she was performing,
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: she was disappointed in herself.
• 47:21
  Speaker 14: Hmm.
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: Like she'd make a face like I didn't do that perfectly,
• 47:25
  Speaker 5: but she fulfilled her promise.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: I made a promise.
• 47:30
  Speaker 5: I made a promise to come back and to be
• 47:32
  Speaker 5: back on stage.
• 47:35
  Speaker 7: So here I am.
• 47:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, she gave a very emotional speech to the crowd.
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: Did she have or still has a form of facial
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: paralysis like Justin Bieber had for a while?
• 47:46
  Speaker 5: Or is hers just more intense? it's much more intense
• 47:51
  Speaker 5: and it's throughout the body. I think it's more limbs
• 47:53
  Speaker 5: because I've seen her doing interviews and there's a documentary
• 47:56
  Speaker 5: about her as she was trying to beat this. And
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: I didn't notice as much in her face as it
• 48:02
  Speaker 5: just seemed to affect everything else, which is why she
• 48:04
  Speaker 5: probably can still sing. You know, she, it's not her
• 48:08
  Speaker 5: vocal cords, it's not her face, but apparently there's some
• 48:12
  Speaker 5: intense pain involved with it as well. But The documentary
• 48:16
  Speaker 5: is worth seeing. She pushes through it, and she says
• 48:20
  Speaker 5: the entire time. It's very tearful, and you see her
• 48:24
  Speaker 5: really straining, but man, for her to be able to
• 48:29
  Speaker 5: come back from this, most people would not be able
• 48:31
  Speaker 5: to stand on a stage after just being diagnosed two
• 48:34
  Speaker 5: and a half years ago and sing songs. It is
• 48:39
  Speaker 5: a miracle.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and naturally, the song from the Titanic... will last
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: forever because that was the theme song that she sang
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: and people can still hear it in their head. You
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: know a song has a lasting effect when you can
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: hear it in your head.
• 48:56
  Speaker 5: You're absolutely correct. Let's get some talkbacks. We talked about
• 49:00
  Speaker 5: AI and the fears of AI and that's what you
• 49:02
  Speaker 5: want to talk about.
• 49:04
  Speaker 6: Remember Y2K in 2000? All the fear monitoring around that
• 49:08
  Speaker 6: and what was it? It was nothing more than a
• 49:10
  Speaker 6: phantom menace. And it's the same thing with AI. But
• 49:14
  Speaker 6: back in 2000, while everyone was worried about Y2K, where
• 49:18
  Speaker 6: they should have been worried about was Al Qaeda. Because
• 49:20
  Speaker 6: a year and a half later, we got our September
• 49:22
  Speaker 6: 11th attack. And with AI, the phantom, the true menace
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: is China. We got to stick with AI.
• 49:32
  Speaker 5: I agree with you, but the problem is, and many
• 49:36
  Speaker 5: of the things you said are absolutely true, we have
• 49:39
  Speaker 5: a fear of the unknown, we have a fear of
• 49:41
  Speaker 5: the future. However, when you have some of the titans
• 49:45
  Speaker 5: of the industry, some of the people who are creating
• 49:48
  Speaker 5: the AI, who can profit the most out of it, saying, hey, listen,
• 49:53
  Speaker 5: we got a problem, we should slow things down. When
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: have you ever heard of a CEO of a company saying, hey,
• 49:58
  Speaker 5: you know what, we might be creating something We don't
• 50:01
  Speaker 5: know that much about. And they're the ones creating it.
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and Anthropic, remember, we talked a lot about gain-of-function
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: research by Fauci. Apparently, Anthropic, the CEO, has said that
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: it had blocked scientists from attempting to use the AI
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: model CLAUDE. to do gain-of-function research. So that meant these
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: agents apparently were moving in that direction. They got a
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: mind of their own, especially those that are labeled super intelligent.
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: They already know they're more intelligent than us. So why
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: should they just stay in their little box?
• 50:38
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 50:38
  Speaker 5: Well, you might be too late.
• 50:41
  Speaker 20: For anyone's questions about AI and wants to know if
• 50:43
  Speaker 20: this is dangerous or not, I have a homework assignment
• 50:46
  Speaker 20: for you and the audience out there. Watch a 1970
• 50:49
  Speaker 20: movie called Colossus, The Forbin Project. It's long forgotten about,
• 50:54
  Speaker 20: but this should put the fear of God into anyone
• 50:56
  Speaker 20: that has questions about AI. So if anyone gets a chance,
• 50:59
  Speaker 20: go to your local streaming service, watch this movie, and
• 51:02
  Speaker 20: tell me what you think about it.
• 51:04
  Speaker 5: Well, let's get a couple in on the, and I will,
• 51:07
  Speaker 5: I'll take a look at it. Get a couple in on, well,
• 51:11
  Speaker 5: they wanted to talk specifically about Giuliani's bodyguard.
• 51:14
  Speaker 16: Maybe the bodyguard's not lying, but maybe that's only the
• 51:17
  Speaker 16: bodyguard's account.
• 51:19
  Speaker 6: Maybe he didn't see them laughing, and if he didn't see.
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: Them laughing, he can only say what he saw.
• 51:23
  Speaker 21: That doesn't mean he was.
• 51:24
  Speaker 8: Watching them every single second of the whole event.
• 51:27
  Speaker 6: I think they were laughing.
• 51:29
  Speaker 8: I think it was a disgrace.
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: Well, that's his firsthand report, and he said there were
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: other politicians behind who were also laughing. glad-handing and laughing.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: So Michael Raguso, an old friend of mine, lifelong Republican,
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: he was there.
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: I wasn't.
• 51:47

  Speaker 3: On the line, Warner Wolf.
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: And it started yesterday in the afternoon with the New
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: York Jets winning against the Titans.
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: And Warner, were you anticipating that victory? That one?
• 54:51
  Speaker 14: I don't think Cam Ward is that great for the Titans.
• 54:55
  Speaker 14: But I was thinking, here's Robert Sala, the new Titans coach.
• 55:03
  Speaker 14: He must have been Are you thinking he was still
• 55:06
  Speaker 14: coaching the Jets? Yeah, they were terrible. Unfortunately, the Jets
• 55:13
  Speaker 14: don't play the Titans every week. But I'll tell you what,
• 55:17
  Speaker 14: let's hear it for Geno Smith. No interceptions, no fumbles,
• 55:22
  Speaker 14: no sacks. And it appears the Jets may have finally
• 55:28
  Speaker 14: found a reliable, long-distant place kicker. Jason Sanders made three yesterday,
• 55:34
  Speaker 14: including a 51-yarder and a 52-yarder.
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: So you're all pumped up on them, Marwana. I mean,
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: you were down on them before the start of the season.
• 55:47
  Speaker 9: Fickle.
• 55:48
  Speaker 14: I change. Fair weather.
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: All right. And the evening action, Sunday night football, Giants
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: versus Dallas at MetLife.
• 55:59
  Speaker 7: I stayed up, watched the game.
• 56:01
  Speaker 14: If you didn't stay up until 1130, Giants beat the
• 56:04
  Speaker 14: Cowboys 28-20.
• 56:06
  Speaker 7: And you know what?
• 56:07
  Speaker 14: The score was no indication of how much the Giants
• 56:11
  Speaker 14: dominated the game. And I'll tell you what, if Jackson Dart,
• 56:16
  Speaker 14: who gained 54 yards rushing, if he wisely continues to
• 56:21
  Speaker 14: slide and run out of bounds, man, here's the Giants
• 56:26
  Speaker 14: 4-13 last year. They could win 9 or 10 games
• 56:30
  Speaker 14: this year.
• 56:31
  Speaker 7: I do have a question, though.
• 56:34
  Speaker 14: The Cowboys' defensive coordinator, he must have been watching another game.
• 56:40
  Speaker 14: The Giants killed him all night with the same play,
• 56:44
  Speaker 14: a pass in the flat to the Cowboys' right side.
• 56:49
  Speaker 14: And also, man, Dak Prescott, he threw one of the
• 56:53
  Speaker 14: worst passes of his career. If you didn't see this,
• 56:57
  Speaker 14: the interception just before the half He's trying to throw
• 57:01
  Speaker 14: out of bounds while falling backwards. It was intercepted, and
• 57:06
  Speaker 14: the Giants scored, and it went ahead. And what a
• 57:10
  Speaker 14: dummy this Javante Williams is. He scores, and then he
• 57:15
  Speaker 14: taunts the Giants 15 yards. So instead of the normal
• 57:21
  Speaker 14: 33-yard extra point, Aubrey had an extra point from 48
• 57:27
  Speaker 14: yards and missed. So if the Cowboys had scored again,
• 57:33
  Speaker 14: they would have had to go for the two-point conversion.
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: God, you're euphoric. You're euphoric. Both teams, you're like on
• 57:41
  Speaker 3: top of the world.
• 57:43
  Speaker 7: He has.
• 57:43
  Speaker 5: Think about it. Ten wins for the Giants, that puts
• 57:47
  Speaker 5: him on the doorstep of a playoff.
• 57:49
  Speaker 19: Yes.
• 57:50
  Speaker 8: Oh, yeah.
• 57:50
  Speaker 14: Ten and seven would make it. Possibly nine and.
• 57:54
  Speaker 7: Eight would make it.
• 57:56
  Speaker 14: And it's funny, Harbaugh would have made the playoffs last
• 57:59
  Speaker 14: year and maybe he'd still be coaching the Ravens if
• 58:05
  Speaker 14: Tyler Loop had made that, I think it was a
• 58:08
  Speaker 14: 44-yard field goal at the end and he missed. Well, yesterday, Loop,
• 58:14
  Speaker 14: for the same Ravens, made a 57-yard field goal.
• 58:17
  Speaker 7: It's kind of funny.
• 58:20
  Speaker 14: But I'm glad he missed it so the Giants have Harbaugh. Oh,
• 58:24
  Speaker 14: changing the gears, the early suspicious college football coach of
• 58:30
  Speaker 14: the year, Ohio State's Ryan Day. Ohio State was a 50,
• 58:35
  Speaker 14: that's 5-0, and a half-point favorite over little Ball State.
• 58:41
  Speaker 14: But they led by only 46 points with just 155
• 58:44
  Speaker 14: to play. With a second down at Ball State's 15-yard line,
• 58:50
  Speaker 14: did Ohio State try and run out the clock?
• 58:53
  Speaker 8: No!
• 58:53
  Speaker 9: No!
• 58:54
  Speaker 14: They passed for a touchdown and beat the 50-and-a-half-point spread,
• 59:00
  Speaker 14: winning 56-to-3, 53 points.
• 59:00
  Speaker 22: Why?
• 59:01
  Speaker 7: Well, obviously, the Ohio State coach must have.
• 59:10
  Speaker 14: Have taken Ohio State and given the points. Why else
• 59:14
  Speaker 14: would he do it? And Curtis, you brought up a good,
• 59:19
  Speaker 14: go ahead. The rule, Miami, Florida against the Florida.
• 59:24
  Speaker 7: A & M.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, the reason I'm interested in Florida A &
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: M is because I remember as a kid watching the
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: world's fastest human, Bob Hayes, play for Florida A &
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: M before he went to win an Olympic gold medal
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: and then be on the Dallas Cowboys and be labeled
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: the world's fastest human.
• 59:45
  Speaker 14: Yeah, but they had this new, it's not, anyway, Miami
• 59:52
  Speaker 14: beat Florida A & M 77-7. And they stopped the
• 59:55
  Speaker 14: game with five minutes left. Now, I didn't even know
• 59:59
  Speaker 14: about this rule. It's rarely used. They stopped the game
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 14: with five minutes left. The rule says that both teams,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 14: this is college ball, both teams and the referee agree
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 14: to shorten the game at any time they can do it.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 14: The rule should be used more, right?
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely. I didn't know that existed either.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 14: No.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 5: Has it ever been used?
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they could have used it Saturday.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 14: Georgia beat Western Kentucky 70-20. Houston beat Southern 77-66. The
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 14: only reason maybe you don't want to use it, it
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 14: gives the bench warmers on the winning team a chance
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 14: to play.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: So what do you have to do as the coach?
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: You got to throw in the white towel? You got
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 3: to throw it in on the field? No mas, no mas,
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: we give up?
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 7: Yeah. No, but both teams have to agree.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 9: Oh, I see.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 14: And the referee.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 3: I see. Wow.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 14: I didn't even know that rule was in the books. Hey,
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 14: the boo of the week has to go to poor sport,
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 14: Bush leaguer, Irina Sabalenka, who after being aced, by Elena Rabokina,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 14: match point. Rabokina, give me four times and I'll get it.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 14: On match point, I don't know if you saw it,
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 14: so Rabokina wins the championship, and Sabalenka throws a racket
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 14: on the court, and then when she sits down, she
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 14: did a two-hand smash with a racket. Man, I mean,
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 14: come on, get her out. Maybe the $ 100, 000 necklace worn
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 14: around her neck when she plays was too heavy and
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 14: it wore her down.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: Or all the marijuana smoke in the stadium that she
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: and other tennis stars were complaining about.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 7: That's right. That's right.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 14: Hey, I've got a little story. The late 86-year-old NBA
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 14: Hall of Famer Don Nelson, who passed away recently, Well,
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 14: you know, besides being the second winningest NBA coach in
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 14: history after Greg Popovich, when Nelson played on five Boston
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 14: Celtics championship teams, Nelson was known to use an abundance
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 14: of stick'em on his hands, which helped him with the
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 14: pump fake and driving to the basket without losing the ball.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 14: But the joke was, players around the league... complained, and
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 14: they would say, Nelson uses so much stickum on his
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 14: hands that he can't even tie his own shoelaces. Is
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 14: that only funny to me?
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: You know, that reminds me, remember Fred Bolitnikoff, flanker for
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders, had stickum from his elbows?
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 3: To his fingers.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 5: The ball would hit him in the back and he
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 5: was a catch.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 14: He would stick.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: Well, anyway, we do appreciate that, Warner Wolf.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: We will catch up with you same time, same place
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: next week while you're on this euphoric high for the
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: Jets and the Giants winning their opening games.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he might be off the bandwagon next week.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: He might be. Shipping and industrial.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 15: Now, it's 710 WOR Speed on the Street with Natalie Migliore.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 5: I can imagine we're all still in a bit of
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 5: an emotional wake after the 9-11 ceremony on Friday. Natalie
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 5: Migliore was there in her beater in the street today.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 5: She talks about that very thing, Natalie.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, good morning, guys.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 10: This past Friday, we commemorated 25 years since one of,
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 10: if not the darkest days in American history. Thousands of
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 10: people attended the ceremony down at the reflecting pools in
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 10: lower Manhattan, including Mayor Mom Donnie. So we're taking a
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 10: political turn because there was mixed reaction to his presence.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 23: Mom Donnie should have avoided coming here. He had no
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 23: right to be here. You're sitting down shaking hands with
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 23: a man who said we deserved what happened. My friends
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 23: didn't deserve what happened. Mom Donnie shouldn't be here. And
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 23: we're really getting tired of him laughing in our faces
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 23: and acting like he's conquered America. Let me tell you something, Mamdani,
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 23: you will never conquer America.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 24: It's all politics, and I don't agree with politics. So
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 24: they should have shown up, should have supported the remembrance
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 24: of it. So I'm strongly in favor of it because
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 24: he belongs there. He's for all the people, you know,
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 24: and not just for a few.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 5: I think he definitely should have gone, and I think
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 5: Trump should have been there as well.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 10: Yes, all former presidents were at the World Trade Center,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 10: along with former mayors Bloomberg and Giuliani. the president decided
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 10: to honor the day at the Pentagon. So among the
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 10: diplomats and elected officials was Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 10: now in a short clip, a video that went viral
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 10: as she was seen laughing with Mom Donnie during the
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 10: solemn ceremony. They caught heat from the president who isolated
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 10: a four second clip of the little giggles, I guess.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 3: But the public is not so quick to judge.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 24: I didn't see it, but I see it pulled out
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 24: of context. I don't know what he's laughing about.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 9: Well, I think whatever it is, we're all praying that
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 9: he can do a good job and I wouldn't want
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 9: to criticize him. However, I don't agree with all of
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 9: his policies at all, but I don't want to be.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 9: He's a person too.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right.
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 5: That was so sweet.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 6: I know, I know.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 10: Very diplomatic, everybody. But you know, the politics... isn't really
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 10: ranking with everyone though. We talked about the emotion behind
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 10: the day and just really, it's been an emotional weekend as,
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 10: as sort of everybody comes down from Friday, but there's
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 10: something to be said for, for never forget. And there
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 10: are some things everyday people and first responders who were
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 10: down at the trade center on September 11th, 2001 say
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 10: are just more important.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 3: None of them had to be here. People say it
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 3: was their jobs. Oh, okay, great.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 22: They just never went home, and they have families that
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 22: still suffer from this. And there's a lot that did
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 22: go home that have been dying year over year. I
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 22: don't know if people remember that.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 25: I want them to remember that 9-11 wasn't just the day.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 25: For some people, it lasted for years, the struggles and
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 25: getting back their lives, whether because they lost a family
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 25: member or they were there that day. The impact is everlasting.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and that guy, the last guy who I talked to,
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 10: Ryan Robert, he was on the 74th floor. So I
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 10: can't remember of what tower, but, and he, I think
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 10: it was the South Tower. And he was, you could
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 10: just see, it was his first time back at the
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 10: memorial since, and he was sort of getting ready 25
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 10: years later to see this space that has now been
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 10: re-imagined into two very large reflecting pools, But it's a
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 10: it was a very emotional day for everyone and not
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 10: everybody wanted to focus on politics. It was more about
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 10: commemorating the lives that were lost and and sort of
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 10: sharing how people have moved on or not moved on,
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 10: but how they've had a fight to get to get
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 10: some of their life back in a way.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 5: I love what he said, and I haven't heard anybody
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 5: say that. And I tend to agree with them, not
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 5: just Mamdani or individual politicians. Why do any of them
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 5: have to be there?
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 5: They don't have to be there. I never thought of
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 5: that before. That was a great that was a great
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 5: thought on his part.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: In terms of.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: Well, I think this particular lead up to the 25th
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: commemoration was hijacked by all the politicians, all the politicians,
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: because they were all talking about themselves and what they
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: wanted to do or what they didn't do instead of
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: just talking about the victims and what it was like
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: on that day.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 5: Would anyone miss them?
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 18: No.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 5: Not good families, for sure.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 3: The ceremony was created for the families.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 22: Right.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 4: And then everybody else started showing up and making it
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 4: their moment.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 5: I hope that catches on. That's a great idea.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 10: And they're not allowed to give speeches, right? So it's
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 10: not like they're just there to show their respect, in
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 10: a sense. So it's not like they're allowed to speak
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 10: or say anything. And quite frankly, I don't think it's
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 10: comforting to families to hear any of it, in a sense,
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 10: from them. So they're more focused on remembering the people
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 10: who they lost.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 5: It's not comforting at all. Even their presence isn't comforting.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 3: It's superfluous.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 5: It's worse than that. I mean, it is selfish. Just
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 5: go away. All of the politicians. I love that. He
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 5: should start a movement and I'll join.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 3: Stay away. Stay away. A petition online. Larry's going to start.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 3: All of you politicians, stay away. The no politician petition. Exactly.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 3: Now up next.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 6: Oh, boy.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: Can't stop talking about the Clancy trial. And now Governor
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: DeSantis in Florida has offered asylum to the holdout juror.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: And Gayle King, when being informed that that juror was
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: an African-American man, said, you got.
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 3: To be kidding. No, you don't mean that.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: More updates on the Clancy trial up next. But first,
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: the news at eight.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 5: I don't know if it matters to you at all.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 5: What race the holdout person was in the Lindsay Clancy trial,
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 5: the person that said, no, I'm not going to agree
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 5: that she did this because she was insane or she
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 5: had a post-traumatic whatever it is that I can't, or
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 5: postpartum whatever it is, whether it's postpartum depression or postpartum psychosis.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 5: I don't think you've probably ever thought you know it
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 5: was a guy, did you even ever care or consider
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 5: what race they were? But apparently it's extremely important to
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 5: a lot of people. And Gayle King found out from
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 5: one of the jurors exactly what race that person was.
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 2: One person of color was a person of color, a
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: woman or a man?
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 20: A man.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 2: A man. Is a holdout juror a person, a black man?
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: A black man is a holdout juror? Yes. Well, I
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 2: have to sit with that for just a second.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 18: What?
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 5: Why is that so overwhelming? Why does somebody have to
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 5: sit with that for a second?
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: So she is demeaning black people when she says that.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: Like in this case, this African-American juror, a male. did
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: not have a right to have reasonable doubt, right? To
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: be the lone holdout. I can't believe that an African-American
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: would have been the holdout jury. Why not, Gayle King?
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: Can't every black man and black woman think for themselves
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: on a jury?
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, how ridiculous?
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 5: No, it's extremely reasonable to want to convict Lindsay Clancy.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 5: You don't have to go along with the crowd. I
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 5: went to an event over the weekend. It was one
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 5: of my wife's events, so it was all women, and
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 5: it was all women there. But I got a chance
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 5: to talk to a forensic psychologist, and they said, no,
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 5: it's extremely reasonable that there are people that believe that
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 5: no matter what the psychosis, no matter what somebody goes through,
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 5: there must be punishment for killing three children, especially when
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 5: it's your own three children. Doesn't that seem reasonable to everybody?
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 5: Why would race have to play into that at all?
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 5: But Curtis, this has become a big deal.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: Apparently, this gentleman.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: Maybe under threat that Governor DeSantis in Florida, in Tallahassee,
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: threw him a lifeline and said, hey, we'll give you sanctuary.
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 3: We'll transport you down to Florida where you'll be safe
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: and secure.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: Like, why would anybody be looking to harass this guy?
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: He's entitled to his point of view. It's not like
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: it was hidden. It was discussed in open court. that
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: he disagreed with the other jurors. They tried to get
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: him back in the fold. He wouldn't do it. He
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: stayed independent and autonomous. It's a hung jury. Now they
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 1: have to determine how they're going to proceed further. The
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: DA has to make that decision. But you say to yourself,
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: Oh my God, the guy needs sanctuary in Florida.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 5: Because he's black. He needs sanctuary in Florida. It didn't
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 5: matter that it was just a male. That was okay.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 5: Must be a white guy. But now that he's African-American
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 5: and for Gayle King, and by the way, there's other
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 5: prominent African-Americans who are also black. For some reason, shocked
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 5: by this. No, you know how I feel about the case.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 5: I feel like he's a national hero. Think of this, Larry.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 5: Put aside what people's opinions are. This was not a
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 5: racially charged case. This was not an OJ case, right,
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 5: where you have blacks, you have whites. This has race
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 5: wasn't involved with this at all. So the guy is.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: Making a decision void of race. And yet Gayle King
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: is still it's like a knee jerk reaction. I can't
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: believe an African-American man would be the holdout juror because
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: you don't give. Black men and black women, an opportunity
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: to be independent and autonomous.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 3: You think they're all going to be in one box.
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 5: They all have to think unison because they're a black person.
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 5: So Gail King, according to Gail King, who I guess
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 5: is the leader of all blacks in the country, has
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 5: decided you went off the reservation. There's something wrong with
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 5: you that you went and voted against what everybody else
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 5: voted for and didn't get this woman help. Get her
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 5: the help she needed.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: I think this requires an explanation from Gayle King. We
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: know she's bright. We know she's intelligent. We know she's
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: handled a lot of interviews in her life, dealt with
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: a lot of– high-profile cases, I think we're all in
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: need of Gayle King explaining. I think I'm going to
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: have to sit back and think about that.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 5: Isn't that the definition of racism?
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 5: When you say a person has to act the exact
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 5: same way because of the color of their skin, I mean,
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 5: and the fact that they don't then you're like worried
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 5: about them. Like, oh my God, they for some reason
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 5: went off the reservation and they didn't follow our lead.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 13: It is....
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 5: It is shocking and it's disappointing for Gayle King, but
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 5: she wasn't the only one. No. A lot of people
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 5: in the African community were shocked that it was a
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 5: black man.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: And the conversation about this case, even though it ended
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: in a hung jury, and again, we don't know what
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: the DA has intentions of doing, whether trying it again
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: or looking for a plea bargain or whatever. Lindsay Clancy
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: is in a psychiatric facility until they figure that out.
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 1: But even the president, way off in Ireland as he
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: was there for the Irish Open at his country club
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 1: and golf course, even he was being asked to comment
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 1: about Lindsay Clancy, which continues to be the talk of
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: the town.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it continues to be all across the country. It
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 5: is one of those cases. And now it is even
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 5: more interesting. because of this, because who knew there would
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 5: be a racial aspect to this man?
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 3: If this was a movie, it has everything.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 5: I mean, now that there's a racial, first, it was
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 5: the sexes battling against each other. Then it was, you know,
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 5: whether a mother can even kill her own kids, whether
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 5: she could possibly be that psychotic that she would kill
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 5: her own kids. Now, all of a sudden it was
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 5: missing race. Now race has entered into it. So, This
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 5: is one of those strange stories that keeps twisting and turning,
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 5: and none of it makes any sense. Talk about insane.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, there's a lot of insanity going around,
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 5: not just Lindsey Clancy. There's a lot of insanity going
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 5: around in reactions to this.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 1: Well, I would think that the high-profile people here, the
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 1: defense attorney for Lindsey Clancy, wants to end this as
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: soon as possible. I would think the DA would want
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: to end this as soon as possible and not go
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: to a retrial. But, you know, there's so much attention
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: to it. There are a lot of people whose careers
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: are going to be embellished by this, by this case,
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: if it continues. Hopefully, they'll sit down and they'll figure
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 1: out something because it's clear that Lindsay Clancy, no matter
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: what the decision, is going to end up in that
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 1: psychiatric facility for a long, long, long, long time. It's
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: not like they're going to find her totally cured in
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: like two years or three years, and then she's back
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: out on the streets.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 5: I don't think that'll occur. No, I think you're right. However,
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 5: some of these things snowball a little bit. Like you
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 5: would think that they'd come up with a settlement at
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 5: this point. There'd be some kind of settlement not to
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 5: have to go through this again, not to put it
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 5: up for trial. But a lot of times these things snowball.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 5: And it seems to me that the defense attorney, Reddington,
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 5: he seems to think, that she's not guilty. I mean,
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 5: I think he's a true believer in that, that he's
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 5: not guilty. So is he going to settle for any
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 5: type of criminal charges? I don't think so. I don't
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 5: think so. And I think the prosecutor is adamant that
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 5: there has to be some criminal charge, whether it's a
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 5: lesser charge, that's fine, but there has to be some
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 5: criminal charge. So we might, I thought there was going
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 5: to be some kind of settlement. It doesn't sound like it.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 5: I think we might be going back to trial. And
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 5: this time, Watch some of the cable news networks. They're
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 5: going to go live with this.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 3: Oh, no doubt. And this is the GoFundMe for Lindsay Clancy.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: It is well over a million dollars now and growing
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: by the day. I mean, there are people out there
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: contributing to her welfare in whatever form.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 3: That takes.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: They really don't know what this money is going to
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: go to because if she's in a psychiatric facility, it's
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: limited in terms of what it can go for.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 3: But they just keep sending money.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 5: It's going to her family at this point, and it's
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 5: up to $ 1. 3 million. But they want, listen to this.
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 5: This takes a lot of gall, by the way. They
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 5: want $ 3 million. Now, I want to know exactly why
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 5: you need $ 3 million. Please itemize that.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 3: Sure. Tell everybody why. Everybody is entitled to know.
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: Because if whatever comes down the pipe in terms of
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: a plea bargain or whatever, if she's in a psychiatric facility,
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: we're paying for that, meaning the taxpayers of the Commonwealth
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: of Massachusetts.
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 3: So what are all of her needs?
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: We know that there is a GoFundMe effort for her
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: mother and father who were traveling back and forth for
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: the trial. Apparently that continues to gather steam and there's
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: more money being contributed to that. So I'm scratching my
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: head and saying, where could this money be going? Is
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: it going for the welfare of who? The children are dead.
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 1: The husband is now off on his own.
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 3: He's remarried. He's living in Manhattan. So where is this
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 3: money going?
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 5: Doesn't it smell like somebody's trying to get rich off
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 5: of this?
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 3: Is it going for legal fees?
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 5: $ 3 million worth?
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know.
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 5: Maybe, but man, it sure does stink. At least it's suspicious.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 21: And with everything going on, Everywhere I went, right, in
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 21: the aftermath of 9-11, with AI hysteria, everything else, it's
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 21: the number one topic on the minds of people.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 3: It's not going to go away.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: It's not going away until the DA decides what they're
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 1: going to do with this case now.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 15: That's why the media is praying for a retrial. Oh,
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 15: you better believe it. Careers will get made on this retrial.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 3: Anyway, up next.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: You know, I've dealt in the subways since I was
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: five years old. That's when I took my first subway
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: ride in 1959. I never have seen or heard of
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: a case like this where this young couple just sat
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: down in the tracks on Spring Street. And got hit
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 1: by an incoming number four train.
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 3: Never, ever, ever.
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: And I've seen and heard almost everything. Plus, a chance
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: to see Richard Marks. You know, Larry and Natalie, I've
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: been riding the subways of New York City since I
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: was five years old by myself, 1959. The old L train,
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 1: lousy line out of Rockaway Parkway. And I've seen and
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: I've heard and I've been made aware of a lot
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 1: of weird.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 3: And very bad things that have happened in the subway.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 1: I can't recall, I'm 72 now, anything that's comparable to
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: what occurred at 3.15 a.m. Saturday going into Sunday at
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: Spring Street Station, the number four train, number six train
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: going downtown. on the weekends and the wee morning hours,
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: the express train oftentimes will go on the local track.
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: We see an actual shot. A video was taken, but
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: they sort of stopped the shot. You see two young
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: people staring at the train as it's bearing down at them.
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 1: They're sitting in the middle of the track as if
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: they were having a picnic. And they are crushed to
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 1: death as the number four train could not stop in time.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: The motorman said he just didn't see him in time.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 1: And unfortunately, it resulted in their death. Horrible death. Turns
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: out it was a 24 year old man from Sayreville,
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: New Jersey. That's like in middle New Jersey, right? In
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 1: Middlesex County. and the young lady, also 24 years old,
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: from Dayton, New York, which is way upstate, near like
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: Amish countries, only like 2,000 people in all of Dayton.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: My assumption, without having any more details, they've not released
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: the names, they haven't said why they were down in
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: the track, is it's at such a place where there
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 1: are bars and restaurants, you know, it's Soho, it's below NYU,
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 1: it's north of Canal Street, that they were probably... going
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 1: to a bar or enjoying themselves and for some strange
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: reason ended up down on those tracks sitting. So it
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 1: didn't appear that they were tossed in because the last
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 1: photo was of them actually sitting and facing the train
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: that was bearing down on them. So hopefully we find
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: out the details. But I've never seen anything like that before,
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: nor heard of anything similar to that in the subways.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 5: I had to look to see if there's ever been
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 5: a suicide pact that had to do with the subway.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 5: And I had to go way back, but it's happened.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 5: It's happened a couple of times. It happened in 1991
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 5: in Chicago, where a couple just, they wanted to go
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 5: out like Romeo and Juliet, they said. I don't remember
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 5: the subway in Romeo and Juliet, but they said they
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 5: They wanted to go out as lovers, and they wanted
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 5: to go out in a dramatic and big way. And so,
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 5: as you said, we don't know enough to go there,
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 5: but nothing else seems to explain it.
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: I'll try to get information from sources that I have
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: in the subway system, the MTA. The workers, the maintenance people,
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: the others who will probably give me some information that
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: the officials would not divulge. Now, I bogarted you, Larry.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: Do we have some talkbacks?
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 5: We absolutely have a couple of talkbacks, starting with AI
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 5: and China. And this guy raises a really good point.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 18: China.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 9: China.
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 19: You want China to join in and be in our side.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 19: Why did you ask Al-Qaeda to join you?
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 18: Really?
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 19: You think China is going to do anything that's going
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 19: to benefit us.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: Or the world?
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 19: Seriously? You're going to go with China.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 3: Forget it.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 19: Just forget it. There's too many ignorant people on the planet.
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 19: And they're running the places.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 3: Well, I would only say this.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: There's an International Atomic Weapons Commission that inspects their payloads, Russia,
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: every country that has nuclear weapons. Maybe something along that
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: matter could be established.
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 5: Now we have somebody that liked my use of an
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 5: adjective in describing the politicians at 9-11.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, superfluous. I think that's a good adjective to use for.
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 8: Politicians being at the 9-11 ceremony, because they don't need
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 8: to be there. And frankly, I doubt that many of
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 8: them even care. I wonder how many times Joe Biden
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 8: looked at his watch this time.
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 5: Absolutely. And we got that idea from a gentleman in
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 5: the beat on the street with Natalie Migliore, who said,
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 5: why do any politicians have to be there? Great idea.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 5: I completely, completely agree. Now let's get Larry Kofsky. In
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 5: for Daria Albinger with the 830 News. Larry.
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 11: Good morning, Larry.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 3: Good morning, Curtis.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 11: We have 68 degrees under cloudy skies at 830. The
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 11: cleanup continuing in parts of northern New Jersey and the
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 11: Hudson Valley after torrential rains flooded streets with up to
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 11: three feet of water. Patterson and Paramus were among the
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 11: community's hardest hit. Runners in a half marathon in Paramus
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 11: had to wade through knee-deep water in some places to
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 11: complete the race. Patterson's mayor is asking for federal assistance
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 11: to help the region recover. Mayor Andre Saia says fire
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 11: crews had to rescue 15 stranded motorists before the rains
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 11: let up. He says federal help could aid in fixing
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 11: Patterson's chronic flooding problems. New York City health officials continuing
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 11: confronting their second outbreak of Legionnaire's disease this year, this
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 11: time in the Melrose and Morrisania sections of the Bronx.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 11: One person has died, three people hospitalized out of nine
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 11: confirmed cases so far. Ten cooling towers, including one at
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 11: Yankee Stadium, have tested positive for the bacteria that causes
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 11: the disease. They've been ordered drained and disinfected. Also in
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 11: the Bronx, police are searching for several suspects seen fleeing
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 11: the scene of a double shooting not far from Yankee Stadium.
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 11: Authorities say it happened shortly after six last night. At
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 11: 157th and Girard Avenue, the victims, aged 64 and 72,
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 11: suffered non-life-threatening injuries. President Trump is back at the White
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 11: House following a two-day visit to Ireland. The president said
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 11: over the weekend that he would love to see a
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 11: united Ireland and thinks it's going to happen eventually, sparking
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 11: some controversy. Republican Congressman Tom Tiffany of Wisconsin is recovering
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 11: after he suffered minor injuries when a small plane he
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 11: was in had to make an emergency landing Saturday night.
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 11: Tiffany posted on X that the plane lost power as
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 11: it approached the Wausau Downtown Airport and was forced to
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 11: land in a lake. The FAA is investigating the pilot
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 11: also suffered minor injuries. Our next news at 9, I'm
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 11: Larry Kofsky on 710WOR.
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 5: Thank you, Larry. And congratulations to Jeff Siegel from Hewlett,

• 1:28:28
  Speaker 5: tomorrow at 825. Why can't the city tackle this Legionnaires problem?
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 5: Another outbreak and Yankee State is part of the outbreak?
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 5: We'll talk about it when we come back. Plus, don't

• 1:29:28
  Speaker 5: on the free iHeartRadio app. It's all happening this Friday
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 5: and Saturday nights. Why can't the city get these Legionnaires
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 5: outbreaks under control? It's just happening in New York. I mean,
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 5: there's Legionnaires disease across the country, but not like this.
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 5: We don't have major outbreak after major outbreak after major
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 5: outbreak in a row. And the latest one, And I'll
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 5: go through them in a second, but the latest one
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 5: is in the South Bronx, where health officials are investigating
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 5: a cluster. You know this story by now. At two
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 5: area codes, these are important if you live in that area,
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 5: 10451 and 10456. So, so far, there's nine confirmed cases
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 5: and there's been one death. But that's the way the
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 5: one started in the Upper East Side, too. And we
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 5: ended up with five deaths in 84 cases. That's the
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 5: way the one in Central Harlem, that cluster started. There
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 5: we had 100 people affected and seven deaths. So I
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 5: understand the city's on top of this one. They're already
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 5: very well aware. Yankee Stadium is involved in this. They've
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 5: been ordered to have their cleaning towers disinfected and cleaned out,
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 5: as have a lot of people. But if this plays
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 5: out like the last couple... We're not over with this yet.
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 5: So I get it that the city seems at least
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 5: to be better than it was last year. If you
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 5: remember last year, they said, no, we handled the problem.
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 5: We've ordered all water towers to be disinfected. Everything's fine.
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 5: And then came the Upper East Side in the summer,
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 5: this past summer. And then it was like, oh, my God,
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 5: I thought you had this under control. Now it's happening again.
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 5: So I can pose the question to you, Curtis. We
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 5: don't have this under control.
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 9: No.
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: And ironic that last Friday, Saturday, I was in downtown Philadelphia.
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 1: As you know, I was there with Nancy. I was
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 1: giving a lecture at the University of Pennsylvania. They came
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 1: back for session at Ivy League school there. So we
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 1: were staying in a hotel. Right near what was the
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 1: Bellevue Stratford. I think they changed their name to the Bellevue.
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 1: And that was where really we all became aware of
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 1: Legionnaires disease. They were having an American Legion convention. I
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: think it was 1976. 200 of the Legionnaires became ill.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: 36 died. I don't think they've had another problem since.
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 1: I stand to be corrected. But I remember we were
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 1: staying up near the Curtis Musical Center. So we were
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 1: at about 300 southward.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 3: So that was down at 200 southward. And you're right.
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: How come it's just New York City? And again, three
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: totally different neighborhoods. Under Eric Adams, it was West Harlem.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: As you pointed out, the most recent case was the
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: Upper East Side and now the South Bronx. And what
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 1: attracted everybody's attention is the Yankee Stadium was cited as
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: having an outbreak in one of its water towers. So
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: you said, what can it be? Water towers, many of
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: them are still wood, but they were wood for many years.
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 3: You know, they are on top of these buildings.
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 1: They look like Remember the things in the old black
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: and white movies when the locomotive would pull up and
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: the steam engine and then the water would go down
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 1: and people sometimes would be swimming in those huge wooden containers.
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: So a lot of them look like that on top
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: of buildings. But I don't think it's that. I don't
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 1: know if it has to do with the kind of
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 1: weather we've had of late, but certainly they're going to
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 1: have to go into each and every container that holds water.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 1: and completely de-louse it. They have no choice because they
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: don't have an idea as to how this is developing.
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 5: But trust is now going away. There was some trust
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 5: when the first one happened because they seemed like they
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 5: really did. They were having community meetings. They were all
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 5: over it. They were dealing with all of the cooling
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 5: tower's But then when you have three within 14 months,
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 5: you know, you don't listen anymore. I mean, here is
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 5: the health commissioner, Dr. Alistair Martin, talking about the latest outbreak.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 18: Just last night, we initiated an investigation for Legionnaire's disease
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 18: right here in this community. So that typically means it's
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 18: a cooling tower that's the source. And so the work
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 18: of identifying that potential source is underway.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 5: This was yesterday. We're working on identifying the source of it.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 5: You're working on identifying the source. You have no idea
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 5: where this is coming from. That's what scares me the most.
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 5: What scares me the most is they seemed like they
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 5: knew exactly what happened in 2005, 2025. They seemed like
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 5: they knew exactly what the problem was. This time they
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 5: say we're investigating. Now they're going to investigate the water towers.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 5: Maybe that's specifically what he meant. But what if it's not?
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 1: And by the way, Yankee Stadium, where they go through
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: that with a fine-tooth comb before and after games, because
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: obviously they're charging a premium price. I mean, basically, out
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: of contact for most people, you'd have to take a
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: reverse mortgage and a payday loan just to go there.
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: Is this airborne? Is this actually moving in the air?
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 1: They were really not explaining it or defining it to
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 1: us so that we have a better understanding. Because how
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: does it jump from place to place? In fact, does
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 1: it jump from place to place? Or does it originate
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 1: within the cooling apparatus itself?
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 5: It's a great question. All of those are great questions.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 5: The fact that we don't have those answers and we've
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 5: now been dealing with this. By the way, this isn't
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 5: a new disease. And there's been outbreaks in other cities.
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 5: Not like this. But there's been outbreaks in other cities
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 5: ever since the Philadelphia case. started all of this. So
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 5: we know what the symptoms are. We know what causes it.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 5: We know how it spreads. And for some reason, this
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 5: health department seems to be clueless. Not only, as you
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 5: heard a moment ago, we're going to investigate now to
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 5: find out how it's happening, but also to say that
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 5: we really don't know why it's now jumped to this area. Well,
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 5: they better get a handle on it because I'm sure
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 5: everybody in the whole area is worried about it. By
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 5: the way, just in case you don't know, it starts
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 5: out like the flu. You just get a cough. And
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 5: if that happens, go get tested because the earlier you
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 5: can catch this, the better your chance of survival.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 1: Now, does this mean if you happen to be sitting
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 1: there in Yankee Stadium and you have a cough, you're
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: immediately going to run to your lawyer and start suing Yankees,
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 1: the Yankees, the Steinbrenner family, since they have deep pockets?
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 5: Well, it depends on how bad you get it. You know,
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 5: it is really a type of pneumonia. That's exactly what
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 5: it is. And people die of pneumonia all the time.
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 5: That's the way this is. It just starts with a
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 5: different germ, the Legionella germ. So that's why if you
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 5: get sick, please, and if you were especially in one
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 5: of those infected areas, get to the doctor immediately.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: Well, up next, if you're a Republican candidate seeking reelection
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 1: or trying to get elected to the House or the Senate,
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 1: you're saying, now I got to deal with these data
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 1: filing centers, AI. And the flock cameras, because the president
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: has come out and says that he's in favor of
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: the flock cameras continuing as they are. Typical Republican candidate
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 1: is saying, woe is me.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 3: Woe is me. Woe is me.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 1: President of the United States while over in Ireland, weighed
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 1: in on a lot of subjects. The good, taking the
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 1: tariff off of Irish whiskeys. He hesitated, saying, maybe I
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: shouldn't do this, but I'm urging Irish unification between the
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 1: North and the South. He weighed in on Lindsay Clancy,
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: that case, and then he gave a resounding shout-out, support
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 1: for flock cameras to continue. And this in the face
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: of a lot of growing opposition, which is almost like
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 1: AI data filing centers, which has had a combination of
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 1: Democrats and Republicans both in opposition. So how do you
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 1: think this is going to float with the two months
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 1: left in the midterm election cycle where the local guys
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 1: and gals running are going to have to deal with this?
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not sure it's going to have much of
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 5: an effect on any of the local elections because people
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 5: have to make their own policies on it. They're not
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 5: going to go by Donald Trump on this. But let
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 5: me play you what he said.
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 16: I sort of like them because of that, because of
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 16: law enforcement. But some people don't. They think it's an infringement.
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 4: They help catch a lot of criminals.
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 18: Said.
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 15: Yeah, let me clear a couple of things up real quick.
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 16: The only problem with flock cameras right now, every single
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 16: one of the problems, all of the cases you've heard
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 16: about are.
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 4: Because of horny or jilted cops.
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 5: That go in and nefariously use them to attract somebody.
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 5: That every single problem with it has been that. And
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 5: so I'm not sure how you wrangle that down. The
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 5: people that own Flock have gone out and said, look,
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 5: we're only going to keep it for seven days instead
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 5: of for two months. We're only going to keep the info.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 5: We're going to limit on who can see it. We're
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 5: going to make sure that you have to have a
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 5: written request and you need to email the request to us.
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 5: for every single time you want to access it. So
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 5: they're doing their best. But let me remind you of
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 5: a couple of things. First of all, you have no
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 5: privacy when you're outside. That's not constitutionally protected. And the
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 5: reason you have a license plate, by the way, is
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 5: so they can read it. So they can find you
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 5: in case you ever commit a crime. And it has
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 5: been used, Flock has been used in hundreds of thousands
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 5: of crimes to help solve crimes. And it's found tens
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 5: of thousands of missing people. So you got to be careful.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 5: You got to be careful when you throw this out,
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 5: because you may really need it one day.
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but the wave of anger is out there.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 1: You can just feel it amongst people who attend these
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 1: kind of meetings. We'll see if it has any impact
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 1: on the midterm elections like the growth of the AI
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 1: data filing centers. But the talkback of the morning and
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 1: winner of the Curtis Leo and Larry Menti in the
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 1: morning T-shirt has a warning about AI artificial intelligence.
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 5: Hey, guys, I'll keep it real simple about AI. Terminator,
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 5: I'll be back. You know what's going to happen. Where's
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 5: my radio?
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, the Terminator, I'll be back.
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 5: Was AI in Terminator? Didn't he come from the future?
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 5: Not what happened? Can AI send people?
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 1: In a sense, it's a bit of robotics, as you know.
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 1: So anything is a possibility.
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 5: The one thing that they promised they would never do,
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 5: they're already doing. And the promise that they made, the
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 5: whole industry, when they were talking about AI, will never
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 5: combine it with robots. We'll never have the two departments together.
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 3: Done.
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 9: Done.
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 5: That's happening.
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 9: Done.
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 1: And remember, the Talkback of the Week will win a
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 1: C-Crane radio for the listener who demands better C-Crane radio
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 1: with legendary reception. Now, did you miss Warner Wolf this morning?

• 1:41:22
  Speaker 5: You really want to listen to that because I have never,
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 5: especially in the last few years.
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 3: heard Warner.
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 5: So excited about the New York Giants. Now, that may
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 5: go away next week. If they lose next week, he'll
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 5: be right back dumping on them. But, man, man, was
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 5: he excited.
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 3: And he gave me props.
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: Remember when it was Miami and Florida A & M
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 1: playing their game, and it was such a ridiculous, like 77-7,
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 1: that they threw in the towel. He never knew that
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 1: could be done. I didn't know it could be done.
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 1: You didn't know it could be done. We learned something
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: today when we talked to Warner Wolfe.
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 5: Plus, follow 710WO on Instagram and Facebook. We have some
• 1:42:05
  Speaker 5: great videos up from the New Balance Fifth Avenue Mile,
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 5: including the woman who is due in a few weeks
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 5: and was out there running. She shames all of us.
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 14: She does.
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 5: Everybody here. Tomorrow, tickets to see Richard Marks once again
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 5: at 825. Coming up on Mark Simone at 9, New
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 5: York columnist Michael Goodwin. And listen to this, Bruce Blakeman.
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 5: We have to deal with Bruce Blakeman tomorrow because he
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 5: started to come out swinging. So he's worth listening to.
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 5: Somehow he woke up. Maybe it was you, Curtis. Maybe
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 5: it was you telling him, get out there.
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 1: No, I think he's finding his stride. But right now,
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 1: let's get the news at 9.
