  Here's your host, Alex Garrett, and welcome inside to this edition of the
• 0:11
  One Leg Up with Alex Garrett feature. I want to point you to a
• 0:15
  couple other channels today where you have some adaptive conversation about what it meant for
• 0:21
  the Islanders to visit the Viscarti Center, what adaptive sports means to the disabled
• 0:28
  community and people with disabilities. And you'll hear it there too, but I
• 0:32
  wanted to get it on the record on the One Leg Up feature. You'll
• 0:36
  re hear the conversation I had with Raddick Martineck, the former Islander, about
• 0:42
  his visit to Albertson, New York and that low brick, big building we
• 0:46
  love to call the Viscarti Center. All right, Well, one of my
• 0:50
  coolest moments now in broadcasting is actually calling a former n a teller's goal.
• 0:55
  Raddick Martineck, You scored in a Raddick Martineck style, but you know,
• 1:00
  adapt your sell in a wheelchair? What was that like? You're adapting to
• 1:03
  the chair tonight. It's it's very hard to move. It's uh you have
• 1:10
  to you have to use uh not too much power, right move If you're
• 1:18
  moving right, you have to pull back. If you live, you have
• 1:22
  to pull the other hand. It's it's a very very tough too. And
• 1:25
  stick handling was a change chair. It's a very challenging stick handling. You
• 1:29
  can basically use only one hand and verily you're using two hands. What's it
• 1:36
  mean to be part of the islanders who are very involved in the community like
• 1:38
  this. You must love to being part of all this. So it's a
• 1:41
  little giving back, right And h I love to do this, especially now
• 1:47
  I'm retired, so I enjoy this stuff. We made an impact on the
• 1:51
  island. You made impact tonight, so thank you so much. Thanks.
• 1:56
  And that was Raddick Martinek. How cool is that? And that was at
• 2:00
  the Henry Riscardi Center and they played adaptive hockey and I, you know,
• 2:07
  that adjustment from walking to a wheelchair a power chair had to be something else,
• 2:15
  mainly a wheelchair for feratic. But then I thought, you know,
• 2:19
  we could talk about this migrant crisis issue, and we could talk about how
• 2:23
  we're spending billions, millions and whatever trillions it feels like on this migrant crisis.
• 2:30
  But I don't know. I don't want to always give you bad news
• 2:36
  because the one leg up with Alex Garrett helps you have one leg up on
• 2:40
  life and being in the doldrums when it comes to the migrant crisis. Talking
• 2:45
  about the dull drums of the migrant crisis isn't always positive or healthy or good
• 2:53
  for society. But I'll drop this. I think the saddest part of it
• 3:02
  is that Mayor Adams won't even have his call answer by President Biden. Is
• 3:07
  it how do you know that? Well, Ay, have we got any
• 3:09
  federal money for this crisis to handle it? No? And b is this
• 3:15
  liaison doing anything for New York City as far as the representation of the White
• 3:22
  House, this liaison, this immigration liaison, is he doing anything? Absolutely
• 3:27
  not, And it doesn't know that this controller is kind of not even being
• 3:32
  the New York City controller. I don't know where Brad Lander is. Is
• 3:38
  he on the milk cartainer? I like to say, is he controller in
• 3:43
  name only at this point? Because if he was a real controller, wouldn't
• 3:46
  he investigate how much money's really going into this migrant crisis? And wouldn't he
• 3:53
  worked with the liaison to figure out the finances of this migrant crisis. It's
• 4:00
  all kind of a blurry vision and it's impacting us and will be, I
• 4:08
  guess for months to come. We can only pray that maybe those that are
• 4:13
  here illegally still want to do good for this country and will not depend on
• 4:17
  a hotel and shelters, but really make good for themselves while in the greatest
• 4:23
  city in the world, New York City. But I digress because what caught
• 4:30
  my eye this week on the one leg Up feature is after seeing Oppenheimer,
• 4:34
  the name silly and Murphy, the man who played Jay Robert Oppenheimer was in
• 4:40
  the news again, this time with a music festival. So next in a
• 4:47
  few weeks the Irish play Navy in Ireland and if you want, you can
• 4:53
  go back there for September seventh to tenth in Cork City, Ireland, when
• 5:01
  Cillian Murphy puts on the sounds from a Safe Harbor music festival, you know
• 5:09
  he was doing he was a great actor in Oppenheimer. But did you know
• 5:13
  that he also had a band that was offered a record deal when he was
• 5:20
  a teen, but after things kind of fell through, he turned his attention
• 5:25
  to acting. According to IrishCentral dot Com, so the irishman Sillian Murphy putting
• 5:33
  on the sounds from a Safe Harbor Biennial Festival which features music, dance,
• 5:42
  art, theater and conversation in Quark City September seventh to tenth, so about
• 5:46
  a month from now. So if you love Irish music, if you love
• 5:53
  his work in Oppenheimer, support him. And if you listen to this podcast
• 5:59
  in Ireland where which I know it is listened to in Ireland, go out
• 6:01
  and have some funness September enjoy the Safe Harbor Biennial Festival the Sounds from a
• 6:10
  Safe Harbor Biennial Festival put on by mister Oppenheimer. Sillian Murphy and congrats on
• 6:18
  this multi talented guy for not only doing an incredible job in that movie,
• 6:26
  but then putting on what I presume to be will be an incredible music festival.
• 6:32
  It's so summer, you've still got things to do, concerts to go
• 6:35
  do, and if you like to travel, help go to Ireland for a
• 6:39
  few days and check out the Safe Harbor by Ennio Festival in Quirk City,
• 6:46
  Ireland this year September seventh to tenth. And finally today it is Fanatics Friday.
• 6:54
  You'll have the latest deal dropped in your description below. We are affiliate
• 6:59
  partners with Fanatics. Got to meet Wade Tunkin in New York a couple of
• 7:02
  weeks ago. Good guy, good strategy brainstorming. I did wear my Fanatics
• 7:09
  hat atop the Empire Safe Building, which I'll maybe drop again on only Instagram.
• 7:15
  But this other app called photo five, that's right. Photo five is
• 7:19
  an app where actually, if you've got enough followers and you've got enough engagement,
• 7:24
  you can be considered to get donations for your work. That's right.
• 7:28
  I think it's an Instagram disruptor because I just saw recently one of my friends
• 7:32
  Airborne Camera how to be censored on Instagram for our comments. Maybe try a
• 7:40
  new kind of photo sharing app. Photo five linked to that in the description
• 7:46
  below as well. So if you thinks to catch up on my combination with
• 7:50
  lou Terminello, Terminello's take for this week, we celebrate ten years as a
• 7:57
  friendship, and then we got some adaptive conversation about how adaptive sports is this
• 8:03
  ferret of adaptability, and then a couple of links to check out while you're
• 8:09
  on this podcast page. Oh and by the way, if you download the
• 8:13
  Spreaker app, that's right. Spreaker has an app and you subscribe to the
