  Speaker 1: Wow, huge weekend coming up, especially for you, Larry and Natalie,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: and our WOR710 staff, and Natalie Migliore, the coverage of
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the Marathon on Sunday.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: But before we even get to the start.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Can I say one thing that jumped out at me
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: that I can't get out of my head? Mild and 62.
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: Sunny and 62. That's what Ray Stajic just said for
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: the marathon. Is that perfect weather for a marathon?
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: It's close to perfect.
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: Probably close to perfect for us and the spectators. The
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: runners like it a little bit cooler, but it's still
• 0:40
  Speaker 5: going to be in.
• 0:40
  Speaker 6: The 40s at the start.
• 0:41
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: It's perfect.
• 0:43
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's perfect.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: That's perfect for them. I cannot wait. I'm glad you
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: brought it up. I cannot wait for the marathon, the
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: excitement of the marathon.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a marathon for you and Natalie
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: because not only do you have marathon coverage, then you
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: have election night coverage. So thank God it is daylight
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: savings time. Remember, you've got to roll the clock back.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: You get an extra hour starting at 2 a.m.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: On Sunday.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Roll it back.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: So you can imagine there are some people, it always happens,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: where they don't have the technology that does it automatically,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: and they get up and they realize, damn, I could
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: have slept an additional hour. Why is it so dark outside?
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Normally it's light at this time. And this sort of
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: brings us into the midterm elections. A man who was
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: like a fixture on the Fox News channel, always coming
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: to the aid of President Donald Trump, especially when it
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: came to foreign affairs, which he's an expert.
• 1:39
  Speaker 7: U.S.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Remember how they got into that dispute about daylight savings
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: time and Tom Cotton and some of the other senators
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: who were in the farm areas are opposed to what
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Trump wants to do, the Sunshine Protection Act, that would
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: make daylight savings time permanent. And then Trump put on
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: his Truth Social Network campaign, that millions look at Tom
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Cotton's personal phone number and said, call him and tell
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: him to rescind his opposition. I don't know if you've noticed,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: he was always a great spokesman. I haven't heard, seen, hide,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: nor hear of him. He's obviously campaigning in Arkansas for
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Republican candidates. But I think he took that to heart.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: And by the way, that reminds me of Lindsey Graham.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Remember in 2016 in that heated primary election? when all
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: of a sudden Trump was upset with what Lindsey said
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: about him. He was one of the participants running for president,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and he gave out his cell phone number, remember, at
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: one of those rallies.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: I don't think this is unusual in Trump world. If
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: you've noticed, he can turn on you in a second
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: and then love you the next day. It happens all
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: the time. By the way, the bill that is called
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: the Sunshine Protection Act, It's one of my favorite named
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: bills of all time, the Sunshine Protection Act. And I
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: think most of America, when you poll most of America,
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: want that. They want to get rid of daylight savings times.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: It's ridiculous.
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: Overwhelming.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: And the argument that Tom Cotton has said, hey, you know,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: when the sun rises at 830, that's bad because kids
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: are going to school in the dark. You know, because
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: normally the sun rising would be about 730 while we're
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: on the air would be rising 830.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Uh, in the, these times where you roll back an hour.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: So remember good news for you, Natalie, good news for you, Larry,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: for all the coverage, you're going to get an extra
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: hour of sleep.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: So don't forget out there, roll that cock back an hour.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: But let me tell you, uh, speaking of what you're doing,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: my day is book solid Saturday for the now world's
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: biggest Halloween parade. It's in Greenwich village. It starts at
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: six and I go to about 12 midnight. I and
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the Guardian Angels participate every year. So it'll be interesting
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: to see the political costumes. A lot of people come
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: dressed up as Donald Trump. A lot of people came
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: dressed up as me last year in the mayoral election.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: But let's see what's going to happen because I'm there
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: from beginning to end. So I'll be able to report
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: to all of you on Monday. What were some of
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: the more unique costumes? Because some people... they develop their
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: costumes for a whole year. It's sort of like a
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: carnival in Rio, you know, spend a whole year developing it.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: It's really become outstanding. So I'll be able to report
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: to all of you, but I got to tell you,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I don't think Nancy is coming. She normally loves Halloween
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: is her favorite holiday. She is sitting shiver for the
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: loss of the barn owls, you know, not far from
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: where we live. We live right near central park and, 75th,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: 76th off Central Park West, one of the apartment buildings
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: has a water tower, one of these old wooden water
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: towers which proliferate in Manhattan. There are birdies downstairs. They
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: have telescopes, binoculars, people coming. They're bringing their children, their grandchildren.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: It's even superseded what was the following for Flaco. Remember
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: the escaped owl because Flaco flew all over the place.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: These two adult owls, the mama and the papa and
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the six owlets have been pretty sedentary, except obviously the
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: adults go out and forage for food for the three
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: baby owls, as the six baby owls.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Well, guess what?
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: A construction crew arrived yesterday, you know, with the hard hats.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: they started to disassemble the wooden water tower, which caused
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: the owls to disperse.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Now, you know these birders.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: They got like GPS on these owls. All they've spotted
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: is one lonely baby owl, which seems to be perched
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: at a building nearby. They haven't been able to spot
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the other five. Whoever owns that building, whether it is
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: a consortium, you know, an LLC partnership, or if it's
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: an individual owner operator, they will become the Dracula landlord
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: of this year and maybe forever. If in fact they
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: ordered the replacement of that water tower to get those
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: hours away.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: And it's a shame because, you know, it was just
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: a mistake. They probably, this is, this is scheduled. They'd
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: probably do it this time every year or whenever it
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: comes around. And I don't think, Why would they do
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: it on purpose?
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Because they don't want the owls there.
• 6:36
  Speaker 8: Why?
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: They don't want the attention.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: They don't want the attention?
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Of course.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Now they're going to get more attention than they ever
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: thought that they'd ever get, and it'll all be in
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: the negative.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: They don't want the attention of a street that's already crowded,
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: of people just stopping? It's silly.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: You don't understand how some of these folks are on
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: the Upper West Side. For all the supporters of the
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: owls and the baby owls, there are detractors. And obviously,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: this had to be signed off by the owners and
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the operators. Couldn't have happened at a worse time. Now,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I would love to see if this is a regular thing,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: the cleaning up the water tower. I mean, I'm wondering
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: if it's even required.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? My feeling is it has
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: to be.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Boy, are they going to claim that it's Legionnaire's disease
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: to force them.
• 7:20
  Speaker 9: To do this? No, no, no, no.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: But if you're going to have a water tower, you're
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: going to have to maintain it. And the maintenance has
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: to happen regularly. So what I'm thinking is this is
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: just regular maintenance.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: It's a mistake.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Either way, it's a mistake. But I'm not sure it
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: was on purpose.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Let's see if they actually are bold enough to come
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: forward and speak on their behalf of why they decided
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to do it now and not delay. Because, you know,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: there are all kinds of advocates out there. They'll be
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: protesting outside. There are rules and regulations that affect these
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: species that you can't displace them. So let's see how
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: this plays out. But I'm pissed off because this is
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: my wife's favorite time of year. Favorite time of year, Halloween.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: And she is really upset. There are a lot of people,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: you know, you know the birders. You've seen them with
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: the telescopes. They spend their whole day following these birds.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: And it is a disgrace. Now, speaking of my wife,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: we went out to fetch our brother-in-law was flying in
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: a JFK.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: And what a great experience.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Even though we took mass transportation, which is not the
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: best alternative like in other cities, Larry, where you can
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: go from center city, you know, right out to an airport.
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: Going to the airport around here is the most stressful,
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: annoying task to do.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: It's everywhere. Just about, I mean, any big city at
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: the airports are a pain in the neck. Try O'Hare
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: out in Chicago.
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: I would do anything not to go to JFK.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Right, but you can go straight to O'Hare on the CTA.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: You can go straight to Midway in Chicago, one ride
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: on a subway. Here, you got to change. You got
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: to go from one chain to another chain. Oh, if
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: you take the subway, see, most of us drive. And
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: so it's kind of a straight way.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: But you're right. I didn't mean to interrupt you, but
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: I think that most people don't know what you were
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: talking about, that you have to take public transportation.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Even Cleveland and Stouffer Square downtown, they have an old
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: rickety subway that takes you out to the airport. But
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: the reason it was good, we were stuck with everybody
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: who was coming in for the marathon. And a lot
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: of the French visitors, because I was trying to inquire
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: from them what's going on in their country. All of
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: a sudden, while they were here, they could speak perfect English.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Those same people, if you were visiting in France, right,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: would look at you if you were asking questions in English.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: You know, like, oh, God.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: And France is the only country that does that. I've
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: been through all the countries in Europe, and France is
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: the only one that won't speak English to you, even
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: though they know English. There's a certain arrogance about that
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: that ticks you off. They want you to ask them
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: if they speak English, and then they will.
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: And I got to tell you, it was a wonderful
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: experience coming back, even though it's the same rickety-rackety, dirty, homeless,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: emotionally disturbed-filled mass transit system subways. Because everybody was euphoric
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: to be here. You could see their eyes were so
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: grateful to be in New York for the marathon. And so,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: whereas I normally talk, I just listened. And it was
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: just an outpouring of... of pride in their family members
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: because they come over as a family. And more importantly,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: that maybe they could win the medal, a medallion that
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: they could wear forever. And when they go back to
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: their countries, oh my God, they're going to be the talk.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Of their town.
• 10:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: I talked about the same thing the other day because
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: we get to stay in a hotel the night before,
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: before we've, Natalie has been working now for like the
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: last month on this, but we get to, you know,
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: we have a meeting and we get to, We get
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: to hang out a little bit and everybody is there
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: in the hotels from around the world. They're there in groups.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: Usually there's running groups from Canada and Australia and all
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: this stuff. And it's, they are so thrilled and so
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: happy to be here. And you're right. They, they work
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: a long time for this moment. This is the pinnacle
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: of their running career to make it to New York city,
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: to get accepted into the New York city marathon and,
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: And then the finish and get that medal. It's awe-inspiring.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: I know the big runners get all the attention, the
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: professional runners get all the attention, but it's much more
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: than that. It's a global, personal event at the same time,
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: which is amazing. Let's get some talkbacks on all of this.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: We have the talkbacks about Halloween. We've got the talkbacks
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: about the marathon. We've got the talkbacks about the mall.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Daylight savings time.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, daylight savings time. That's another one. We've got a
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: lot of topics on the table. Go to the iHeartRadio app.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Leave us a talkback. You could win a Curtis Sliwa
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: and Larry Menti in the morning T-shirt, which is going
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: to be awarded every day to our favorite talkback of
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: the morning. And while you're on the free iHeartRadio app,
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: be sure to set a preset for 710WOR. Don't forget,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: it's going to happen today. The best talkback of the week.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: takes home a sea crane radio. Well, a legend passed away.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: You may have already heard. If not, we're sorry. We're
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: going to break the news to you next. Plus a
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: chance to see comedian John Mulaney at age 25.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: They've got all kinds of.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Well, we lost another great actor. One of the best,
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: as a matter of fact, Patrick Stewart, a revered English
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: actor that you probably know from the X-Men franchise or
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: the Star Trek franchise where he was Captain Picard. But
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: he started out, well, first of all, he was born
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: extremely poor in England in 1940. They had no running
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: water in their house. And he went from there, he
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: started as a journalist and went to drama school and
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: then became the star of Shakespearean acting in England. This
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: is Macbeth.
• 13:07
  Speaker 9: This one did laugh in his sleep. And one cried, murder,
• 13:11
  Speaker 9: that they did wake each other. I stood and heard them,
• 13:14
  Speaker 9: but they did say their prayers and address them again
• 13:17
  Speaker 9: to sleep.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: There are two lodged together.
• 13:19
  Speaker 9: One cried, God bless us, and amen, the other, as
• 13:23
  Speaker 9: they had seen me with these hangman's hands, listening their fear.
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: Man.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: It doesn't even sound like him, did it? I mean,
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: he changed his voice. He changed his meter. He always
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: seemed to be the guy that was put in a
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: role where he was in charge, like in the Star
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: Trek movies.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: I was linked to the hive mind.
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: Every trace of individuality erased.
• 13:48
  Speaker 9: I was one of them.
• 13:53
  Speaker 10: So you can imagine, my dear, I have a somewhat
• 13:55
  Speaker 10: unique perspective on the Borg, and I know how to
• 13:57
  Speaker 10: fight them.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: Captain Jean-Luc Picard. We are losing way too many people.
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: He died, by the way, of something that afflicted my mother.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: It was Alzheimer's. He also had something called Lewy body dementia.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: And I'll have to look that up. I'm not sure
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: exactly why that's a different kind of dementia. But all
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: the reports are that it was Alzheimer's disease. And he
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: gave a lot of money in his life and he
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: gave a lot of money in his will. to the
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: Alzheimer's Foundation. He was a great one, Curtis.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I'm not a Trekkie, but boy, two Trekkies,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: two different forms of the production, passed away in just
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: one week.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: What does this leave? Captain Kirk and Takiyah?
• 14:47
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Well, he wasn't in the originals.
• 14:49
  Speaker 7: No, no, no.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: No, no, he was in the reboots. He was in
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: the reboots in the movies a little bit later on.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: I think that was a different crew at that time,
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: but you're right.
• 14:57
  Speaker 7: You're right.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: He's He is definitely another Trekkie. I did get to
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: interview him one time on the set of Conspiracy Theory. And,
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: you know, I never get nervous. I interviewed Mel Gibson
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: and Julia Roberts that day, too, and I'm not nervous.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: I was nervous about him because he just has that
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: aura about him, you know, that he's better than you
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: somehow as a Shakespearean actor. He was the nicest, most
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: down-to-earth guy. He was asking questions about me.
• 15:26
  Speaker 7: Oh, so glad.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God. He was just. I wanted to hang
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: out with him afterwards.
• 15:30
  Speaker 11: That's what I heard.
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: I saw him three times on stage.
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: I saw him in Macbeth, The Tempest, and his one-man
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: Christmas Carol show, which was probably the most incredible thing
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: I've ever seen on stage because you thought you saw sets.
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: 30 people, and it was one man and basically a stool.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: It was incredible.
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: And if you haven't seen the TV version of A
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: Christmas Carol, must watch.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: Love that. Oh, that's a great suggestion. Let's get to
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: some talkbacks. And Curtis, this is something you've been complaining about.
• 16:05
  Speaker 12: These political commercials on television are killing us. You can
• 16:09
  Speaker 12: watch a one-hour show and see the same stupid political
• 16:14
  Speaker 12: commercials five, six, ten times within a one-hour show. What
• 16:18
  Speaker 12: do they tell all of the automobile manufacturers and toothpaste
• 16:24
  Speaker 12: manufacturers that they can't advertise during this time?
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: Ah!
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Well, they charge a lower rate, even though it's a
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: high rate in the New York market, a lower rate
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: than you would for Colgate toothpaste or any other product.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: And after a while, you become numb.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: I think it's better for the candidates to stay online,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: to be part of people's thread. than to run these constantly, like, oh,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: my God, Kate Conley is from Virginia.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: That's a lawler. And then Kate Conley, lawler, supports AI
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: data filing centers. Enough already.
• 17:00
  Speaker 9: You know what?
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: As he's saying that, he's pointing to the TV. We
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: have four screens. Sometimes there's a political ad on all
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: four stations.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: We have to ask Rob Astorino later on about this lawler,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Kate Conley race, because there's more money in that congressional
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: race than any other in the nation.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Now let's get to Daria Albinger with the 630 News, Daria.

• 18:13
  Speaker 13: Arthur claims that Amy Acton is a liar. He says
• 18:16
  Speaker 13: she has a serious problem. The two haven't spoken since
• 18:20
  Speaker 13: Acton was 12. Well, there are questions and concerns after
• 18:23
  Speaker 13: a Long Island middle school student posted an anti-Semitic photo
• 18:26
  Speaker 13: on social media.
• 18:27
  Speaker 14: That photo, posted by a student at Merrick Avenue Middle,
• 18:31
  Speaker 14: shows him with a large swastika drawn on his back
• 18:34
  Speaker 14: and a message, Explodive the Jews. Sources say it happened
• 18:38
  Speaker 14: this summer when the teen fell asleep and friends drew
• 18:41
  Speaker 14: it on his back. He only posted it recently, which
• 18:44
  Speaker 14: is how it came to light this week. The student's
• 18:47
  Speaker 14: been suspended five days, but some parents and teachers in
• 18:50
  Speaker 14: the heavily Jewish community worry that won't change hate-filled hearts
• 18:54
  Speaker 14: and minds. They also want the teens who drew the
• 18:57
  Speaker 14: image suspended. Andrew Whitman, WOR News.
• 19:00
  Speaker 13: Binance has suspended deposits and withdrawals after the largest cyber
• 19:04

• 19:08

  Speaker 13: digital assets. The Islanders beat Minnesota 4-3 in overtime. Next news,
• 19:17
  Speaker 13: 7 o'clock, bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
• 19:19
  Speaker 13: Up next, we're.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Going to be talking about South Carolina, where the president
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: was yesterday for Darlene Graham, and El-Sayed, the drama continues
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: in Michigan.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, wow. South Carolina yesterday.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: The Gamecock State had President Donald Trump coming in on
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: behalf of Darlene Graham, the U.S. senator running for re-election
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: for the seat that she was appointed to first and
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: then won in a Republican primary against Dr. Annie Andrews.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: And if you believe the polls, it's neck and neck.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: And Larry, number one is, I didn't know this about
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: South Carolina. I mean, we're going to have to call
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Joe Bartlett maybe on Monday because she's retired down there.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: He's playing bocce.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: But you can click on one button for straight party ticket,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: which I think helps Darlene Graham since it is a
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: majority Republican state. So naturally, it gives you that opportunity.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not even going to click each. I'm just going
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: to one button vote for the ticket. I think that
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: actually helps her in the final. I've never really heard
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: of that before.
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: No, a lot of states still have it. Actually, it's
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: been diminishing over the years, but it used to be
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: more than half the states had it. But right now
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: it's Alabama has it, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Oklahoma, and South Carolina.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: It's slowly been going away. I've voted on polling places.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: I've never voted straight party, but I've voted in polling
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: places that had it. They had it in Illinois when
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: I was living in Chicago, and they also had it
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: in Pennsylvania. And I think That it's on– I think
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: the parties that are dominant in a state like it
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: a lot. And then when the other party gets in,
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: they get rid of it.
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? As soon as they can.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: So state by state by state. But it's amazing how
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: many states used to have it. I mean, recently, this
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: has all been happening. in like the last 15 to
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: 20 years, it's slowly been going away.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: So you don't have to play your bingo card, go
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: from one line to another line. You just, boom, one
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: button serves on. Now, yesterday... And you can always.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Tell somebody, by the way, that voted straight ticket, because
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: they go in, they pull the curtain, and they're out
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: like one second later.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: But anyway, it was interesting because Darlene Graham is just
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: a nice lady.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: You know, she never raises her voice. She's always courteous.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: She never said anything defamatory about her opponent, Annie Andrews. Yesterday,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: they must have convinced her, you got to break from
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: that mold. She was cussing a little bit up there.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: She was raising a voice. The crowd was getting, you know,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: all pumped up. Obviously, the president had a big smile
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: on his face. But, you know, I've been the only
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: one saying this. I think she's angry and rightfully so.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Because remember how I've said politics is the dirtiest business ever.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: And all they care about is, like Vince Lombardi said,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: the only thing that counts is winning. Online, remember I
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: had mentioned that there's this campaign against Lindsey Graham, who's dead, gone.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, this is sick.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: They, first of all, refer to him as Lady Graham,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: and then they have three male prostitutes claiming they were
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: hired by Lindsey Graham over the.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Years to have sex.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Now there's a second line of transvestites who are claiming
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: the same thing. I'm saying to myself, First of all,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: if it was true, what does his sister Darlene Graham
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: have to do with this?
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: Nothing. Nothing. And again, this is a Democratic plot. I
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: know they're all going to say, oh no, we had
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: nothing to do with that. No one believes you. It's
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: just like Alaska. Oh no, we had nothing to do
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: with that. We'll talk about that a little bit later.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: But man, this is the dirtiest, dirtiest kind of politics.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: And I hope there is a reaction against it.
• 23:14
  Speaker 7: Well.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Because it's so conservative, South Carolina, and so many evangelicals,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: it may cause some of them just not to vote.
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: Well, it's not her. It's not her.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: You know that.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: And I'm sure they're smart enough to know that, too.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, I would hope that they're smart enough to
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: know that. That type of politics is disgusting. And here's
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: the problem with that type of politics. And this is
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: what we're going to talk about with Alaska. And it's
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: happened across the country. When things like that happen, you
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: should be able to charge somebody or sue somebody. But
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: they make the election laws so you can do anything
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: you want. And you just use the excuse of, well,
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: it's an election. Well, it's an election. Politicians will pass
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: laws to protect themselves quickly. Every other law gets a stalemate.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: To protect themselves, that happens quickly. But But this is
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: a perfect example of that. Somebody should pay for that
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: kind of credit.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Well, now let's flip the script to Michigan where the
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: soap opera continues. Remember, Haley Stevens barely lost to El-Sayed
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: in the Democratic primary by one percentage point. At the end,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: the next day, she endorsed El-Sayed. She then said, but
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to campaign with him. And then recently,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: her fiance said, I'm not only supporting Mike Rogers, his opponent,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the Republican, I'm campaigning.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: With him, which he's doing now.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: And then over this past weekend, Haley Stevens was eviscerating El-Sayed,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: but saying still, I'm going to vote for him.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: I'm a loyal Democrat.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Well, guess who has decided that she is going to
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: campaign in a joint appearance with El-Sayed in a black
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: church in Detroit? The theme is souls to the polls.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Guess who's going to be standing right next to him,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: raising his hand as if they were both running together
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: as a ticket for governor, lieutenant governor, which they're not.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Haley Stevens and El Saeed. And wouldn't you have loved
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: to have been a fly on the wall to see
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: what quid pro quo deals were being made in the
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: back rooms to get her to suddenly decide, I'm going
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: to campaign with him in the most visible way in
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: a black church in Detroit on Sunday. where you're going
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: to have a lot of prominent blacks who are there
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: trying to push the black vote, which he had lost
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: to Haley. He's losing some of it to Mike Rogers,
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: who's living in the African-American community in Detroit and benefiting
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: from that.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: This is the way politics is. And then, of course...
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Wait a second.
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Let's talk some more about this, because she's not the
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: only one. I know why she is so significant. But
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: there are many prominent politicians in Michigan who are Democrats
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: who have pulled support of him. And this is all
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: happening recently. If you've seen in the national news, Democratic
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: spokespeople and Democrats in office, Josh Gottheimer right here in
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: New Jersey, have now said, there's no way I can
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: support this guy. I think that they know he's going
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: to lose. It looks that way. It just is trending
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: that way. And why be involved in somebody who is
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: so controversial and take the stain of that if he's
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: going to lose? That's why this is all happening right now.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Well, and then, of course, there was Donald Trump himself
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: who dressed down a Reuters reporter yesterday because they have
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: decided that they will cancel his public appearance in Iowa
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: and Kansas Saturday and Sunday for the candidates running there.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: And man, Trump was mad at this guy.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: Are you sick to ask that question?
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: You are sick.
• 26:59
  Speaker 7: Who are you with?
• 26:59
  Speaker 13: You are a sick guy.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: Reuters is terrible, by the way.
• 27:03
  Speaker 7: Can you imagine? Look at this guy. He's way out
• 27:06
  Speaker 7: of shape.
• 27:06
  Speaker 14: Look at how badly he.
• 27:08
  Speaker 7: Comes to me. Sir, you're not going to go to Kansas.
• 27:11
  Speaker 14: I'm not going to Kansas because he's doing very well.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: For him to assume that it's because he's ill, that
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: he's sick, that there's something, that's what the reporter asked.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: Are you in poor health? Is that why you can't
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: go to Kansas? The guy just campaigned for 30 days
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: in a row on the road. Are you in poor health?
• 27:31
  Speaker 15: Seriously?
• 27:32
  Speaker 9: I don't know.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I would have got pissed, too.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, no. You know, he gets pissed easily, but
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: this was a winner. Anyway, up next. Oh, my God.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: As major Democrats were asked, hey, when an illegal is
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: arrested versus a citizen, do you downgrade the charges? See
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Nobody would
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: answer that question up next.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: I love, love, love great local journalism. And it's been
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: lacking recently. in New York City since Zoram Mamdani has
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: been mayor. But let me give credit to two journalists
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: at the New York Post, Kevin Sheehan and Alex Oliveira.
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: They did a tremendous story and a tremendous service to
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: us all because there was a press conference yesterday at
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: One Police Plaza with Queens DA Melinda Katz New York
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: Police Department Commissioner Jessica Tisch, and the New York State
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Attorney General Letitia James. They were all there to brag
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: about all the guns they've taken off the streets. They
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: stood in front of a table. All these guns were
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: spread out. It was going to be such a positive
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: thing for them. And then I want you to hear
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: the question that the New York Post asked. because it
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: was a brilliant question that brought every one of them
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: to silence. And the reason I'm, I'm prefacing all of
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: this because I want you to also hear that the
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: communication director from the police department quickly said, Oh no, no, no,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: you can't ask that. This is a, this is a
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: question about guns. He knew it was an uncomfortable question.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: It was about some hearings that are being held in Washington,
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: congressional hearings that, that showed that police departments across the
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: country have been downgrading gun charges against those who are
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: arrested and in the country illegally so they won't be deported.
• 29:43
  Speaker 16: Getting guns off the street is not easy. And it's
• 29:47
  Speaker 16: these officers are putting their lives in jeopardy doing it.
• 29:50
  Speaker 16: So did any of you order prosecutors to downgrade gun
• 29:56
  Speaker 16: charges to keep illegal immigrants in the U.S.? Per the
• 29:59
  Speaker 16: Judiciary Committee report, the recent House just... Yeah, this is
• 30:04
  Speaker 16: a gun question.
• 30:07
  Speaker 7: Any response from any of you?
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: Jessica Tisch physically moved away from the podium. She was
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: the last one to speak. She got away from a
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: microphone as fast as she could. Letitia James looked stunned
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: at first. Then she just smiled and shrugged. Melissa Katz
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: mumbled something, and apparently she said, according to other reporters,
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: my answer wouldn't help. That's what she said.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Let me explain how this works, not just here, but
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: all over the country. The prosecutors, the DAs. So let's
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: say you're a cop, Larry, and you make a good
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: collar on an illegal alien, right?
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: You bring it to the precinct. They call it in
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: to an ADA.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Most times now they do a teleconference. It used to
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: be the ADA would have to come down to figure
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: out the charges. And what they do is they have
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: an expert in every DA's office in blue states. Every
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: DA here in New York City minus the Staten Island DA.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: And that is the person who makes the determination.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: So if I.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Got arrested on a serious charge, I'm a citizen, and
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: an illegal alien got arrested on the same serious charge,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: it gets downgraded from a felony to a misdemeanor, sometimes
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: to a violation, and they slip through the cracks. And
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: we already know they do not inform ICE. because they
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: know who's illegal and who's not illegal. So it is
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: a situation in which if you're going to commit a crime,
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: the best thing to be is an illegal alien.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely. And I also want to just get back
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: to the New York Post, because wonderful job, all of you,
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: because that non-answer was the answer we wanted. That non-answer
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: was a moment that showed us everything. That non-answer and
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: the look on their faces was guilt. That was absolute guilt.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: And we all got to see it. If you haven't
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: seen it yet, the New York Post has it posted
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: on YouTube. Please go and look at their faces when
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: this happened. Because this is one of the most important
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: stories in the country. The fact that the people we
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: depend on to keep us safe are turning their backs
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: on us. and siding with dangerous criminals only because they
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: believe it's a protected class. And it's not just in
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: this state or this city. It's across the country. But
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: the one thing that is the same is all of
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: them are Democrats. So remember that when you go to vote.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: I know everybody wants to vote on gas prices, but
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: there's more serious things that are going on. Gas prices
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: will come down. This is going to keep going unless
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: we do something about it.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Up next, oh, all eyes are on Alaska. The political
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: drama continues. And the question is, with all the investigations,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: there are now subpoenas that are flying out to everybody
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: who may be involved in this political subterfuge to find
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: one Sullivan to run against the sitting U.S. Senator Sullivan.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: If money was exchanged, if this person was paid to
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: run or given gifts... That is a crime. Everything else,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: they say, ah, that's politics. Well, we're going to give
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: you the nitty-gritty details.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: And, Larry, you're going to have to say thank you
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: to the New York Times again.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: They busted Barack Obama, who actually investigated Ilhan Omar when
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: he was president. But it's 7 o'clock in the news.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: When have we ever looked to Alaska? in terms of
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: political drama. We had some with Murkowski, you know, independent Republican, pro-Trump, anti-Trump,
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: nothing compared to this, because everyone admits that what the
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: New York Times revealed is a dirty trick. I think
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: even Roger Stone would marvel at how long they worked
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: on this. He was considered the, uh, Mr. Dirty Trickster
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: of all time for the GOP. Wait, what New York
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: Times did was a dirty trick? No, what the Democrats did. Oh,
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: the Democrats did.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sorry. I misunderstood.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: But they gave the intricate details of how this went
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: back to 2025, where members of the Democrats' campaign, I'm
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: always mispronouncing her name, Peralta, right?
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: Peltola. Peltola.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Was engaged in trying to find a Sullivan somewhere in Alaska,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: and they found about 43 of them. But they hit
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: gold with the guy who lives in that fishing village
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: who decided, yeah, I'll run. And the Senate campaign Democratic
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: committee that gives you money, led by Schumer and some
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: of the other top Democrats were in on it, and
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: they used this strategy in the primary, and it worked
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: because that is– a right choice situation as is the
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: general election and now all of a sudden because of
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: that New York Times as our own John Decker at
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: the White House gave massive credit to the reporter because
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: he said he not only connected the dots he had
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: people went on the record who worked in the Democratic
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: campaign who said oh yeah yeah we were directly involved
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: and she was directly involved and so now you have
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: the Department of Justice they are issuing subpoenas massive numbers
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: of subpoenas They are putting together a grand jury.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: And they already have a lawsuit. The federal government already
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: has a lawsuit that is saying no matter if he loses,
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: we have to freeze the election results. We freeze the
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: election results until we can have an investigation, which is
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: an important part of this.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: And the governor, who's a Republican, has doubled up, said
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: we're investigating it for criminal violations and civil violations. And
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: of course, the president has weighed in on this. and
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: has said, hey, man, you got to know this election.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: You can't go forward with this. This is out and
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: out a dirty trick. And we're hearing from all the
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: sides now. Dan Sullivan, who really hasn't been doing a
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: lot of media interviews, is also now doing them because
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: he knows this could turn the tide and put him
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: back in office. He was on with Sean Hannity.
• 36:30
  Speaker 17: She and her team, and at the highest levels of
• 36:33
  Speaker 17: the DSCC, spent over a year scheming in a secret
• 36:39
  Speaker 17: operation to trick Alaskans to get them to throw away
• 36:44
  Speaker 17: their vote.
• 36:46
  Speaker 7: And it's remarkable.
• 36:48
  Speaker 17: The Democrats will do anything to gain power. This goes
• 36:52
  Speaker 17: to the highest levels of the Democrats in D.C.
• 36:55
  Speaker 7: Schumer, Gillibrand. It's an outrage. We're going to win.
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they want a bigger investigation of this. Peltola, who
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: didn't say anything when it first came out, is now
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: out talking. Of course, she's going to some friendlier places
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: like CNN.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: I knew nothing.
• 37:13
  Speaker 18: About any other candidates on the ballot except for me
• 37:18
  Speaker 18: and the incumbent.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: That is all I have ever known about.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: They have texts. They have texts from you talking about
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: the plan working. And Democrats across the country are coming
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: out and pulling away from her. But everybody, every Democrat
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: now in Alaska is getting on TV to defend her.
• 37:45
  Speaker 13: This is not confusing.
• 37:47
  Speaker 18: Republicans have claimed election confusion and worked to try to
• 37:53
  Speaker 18: make Alaskans scared of the election process.
• 37:56
  Speaker 19: And we just refuse to be.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: We don't have time for this kind of nonsense.
• 38:00
  Speaker 17: This is really an inappropriate use of resources and time.
• 38:04
  Speaker 7: Dan Sullivan is making hay over, you know, allegations that
• 38:09
  Speaker 7: are completely unfounded and silly and a diversion.
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: You notice not one of them denied it?
• 38:14
  Speaker 7: No.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: And I think everybody acknowledges this is dirty. This is
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: as dirty as it can get. But there are nuances.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: Apparently to succeed, you have to try to find evidence
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: that that in this case, that one Dan Sullivan out
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: of the 43 who agreed to run in the election,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: basically to steer votes away from Senator, the Republican Senator Sullivan,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: you have to prove that he was paid to run,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: that he received gifts, gratuities, and I'm sure as they
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: subpoena now, all records from everybody in Alaska, because that's
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: the reason that you issue subpoenas for a grand jury.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: You're going on a fact-finding mission to put it before
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: a grand jury. That's a crime. That's a felony crime.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: That's happened before in lower elections around the country where
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: people have been charged with that. So that's the key
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: because other than that, the Constitution of the United States
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: and also the laws in Alaska are nebulous about that.
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: Are nebulous. But if you think at its base, this
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: happens all the time. So that's why it's not illegal.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: It happens all the time. What reason somebody is trying
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: to convince someone to run, that doesn't play into it.
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: If a part of it comes to you and wants
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: you to run, that's legal. I'm sure that happened to you.
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: I mean if they come and say to you, you
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: should run. This is the reason. This is what we're
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: going to do for you. They allegedly told him and
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: they went after every Dan Sullivan in the state. There
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: was 48 people that contacted him and he was the
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: one that said yes. But you're exactly right. As long
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: as they didn't give him any money or promise him anything,
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: then this is going to be unfortunately legal. Hopefully they'll
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: look at this. And change the law.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: He's hiding out in that fishing village that you can't
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: even find with a GPS. Way out there near the
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: Aleutian Islands in Alaska. Next step is Russia. This guy,
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: they'll be able to crack him. This guy does not
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: strike me as somebody who is going to be able
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: to do Dr. Fauci and take the Fifth Amendment a
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: hundred times.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: If they say to him, look, we won't charge you
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: at all. We just want your testimony. Now you're talking
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: their language. This guy looks like a real goomer. I mean,
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: if you've seen him, like a real goober, not the
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: brightest light bulb in the world.
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: And why else would he have done it?
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: And it was so obvious. What they should have done
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: is a little bit better. He never campaigned. He never
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: spent money on his campaign. He never did an interview.
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: This guy just disappeared. He was gone. The only thing
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: he had was his name on the ballot. It was
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: so obvious what they are doing. And listen, I think
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: that there's—I already know there's going to be this huge
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: state investigation— And federal investigation. And there's going to be
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: a lot of attention on this. But here's the thing, Curtis,
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: and tell me if you think I'm right on this.
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: If Sullivan wins, this all goes away.
• 41:15
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: If the sitting senator, see, when you say Sullivan now,
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: I obviously didn't mean the other guy. When the sitting
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Republican senator, who has a real chance to win now,
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: because there are still Alaskans who haven't voted.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: They have a lot of early voting. And it's rank choice.
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: But he now can sail to victory on this because
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: the Democrats are playing prevent defense. They're saying, well, you know,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: there's already a lot of early votes. It's almost like
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: the Fetterman case. Remember when Fetterman debated Oz and just
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: folded because of his medical issues? Remember, so many early
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: ballots were cast that it didn't impact a lot of people.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: So we have to see. I will tell you this, though.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: You're absolutely right.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: There needs to be laws in every election, including for
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: the boards of education, you know, for people who determine
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: what monies get spent. from property taxes in schools, that
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: you can't do ballot stacking.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: You can't. Everybody acknowledges it's dirty, right?
• 42:14
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: But they say, but it's legal. Well, let's eliminate that. Now, Larry,
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: we praise the New York Times. You heard how effusive
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: in praise John Decker, a White House reporter, was for that.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: One reporter from the New York Times who not only
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: dug up all this information, but was able to actually
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: get people to go on record. That's really the key
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: to a good investigation. Well, the New York Times broke
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: another story. Remember how Barack Obama came out as soon
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: as Ilhan Omar was being accused of, oh, you know,
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: fake marriage, you know, financial improprieties, illegally coming into the
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: country from Somalia. Remember how he embraced, he's the first really,
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: and naturally he's the most prominent Democrat. Well, it turns
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: out the New York Times did a full investigation of
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: Published it. Ladies and gentlemen, you got to give them props.
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: And they said, hey, Barack, your own Department of Homeland
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: Security and FBI did a complete investigation of all those charges.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: You found her to be guilty of a felony, except
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: the decision of the Department of Justice was the statute
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: of limitation was beyond five years. We'll never be able
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: to get it.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: He did it.
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: Biden did it. Obviously, the Trump DOJ is doing it.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: So Barack Obama, are you going to apologize to the
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: New York Times? Are you going to vilify them?
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: I think he's not going to say a thing. I
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: bet you he doesn't even say a thing about this.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: But yeah, it happened under the Biden administration too. Listen,
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: she's in some real trouble. And the reason I know
• 43:48
  Speaker 3: she's in some real trouble is because I saw an
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: interview with Tom Homan. And they said, is it just
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: the name switch? Is that all they have? And he
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: gave this Cheshire Cat smile. and said, I can't comment
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: on that. And they said, well, so it sounds like
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: they have something else. Is it the fraud? And he
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: smiled again and said, I can't comment on that. Now,
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: how many times have you heard Tom Holman say, I
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: can't comment on something? I mean, this is a bigger
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: investigation than we know.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: Three presidents, Obama, Biden, and now the Trump administration have said,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: It appears that she is guilty of fraud.
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: You know, on so many levels. Of the immigration fraud, yeah,
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: of the immigration fraud, but there's a lot more fraud
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: than that. There's a lot more to this. This is
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: her lying about her net worth, where she was probably
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: hiding the money that she was getting from the Somali
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: community on the fraud. There's a lot here. You know,
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: they were talking about deportation a while ago. She might
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: end up in jail. Well, I just want to salute
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: the New York Times. They use their resources at a
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: massive to do the deep dive.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: And it come up with this information, which we're entitled to.
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: That doesn't forgive them for Russiagate. And that doesn't forgive
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: them for Hunter Biden's laptop. They were wrong about both
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: of them. And they won a Pulitzer for the first one.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: So can they get it back?
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Pulitzer for Alaska and Ilhan Omar and Obama.
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're probably not going to get that. But what
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: they did to this country was awful, was awful. They
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: got to do a lot more than this. They should
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: come out and apologize. They should give the Pulitzer back.
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: That's what I would think would be appropriate. DoorDash purchases Instacart.
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: What does that mean to all of us? Plus a
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: chance to see comedian John Mulaney at 825. But first.
• 45:41
  Speaker 19: To Mac.
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: So I guess this is big news, huh? That DoorDash
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: bought Instagram. Oh, not Instagram. Instacart. Instacart. And the reason
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: I said Instagram and didn't know it was because I
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: haven't used either of those services.
• 45:57
  Speaker 6: Oh, really?
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: DoorDash or Instacart.
• 45:59
  Speaker 7: Wow. You have?
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: I've only done Instacart a few times because somebody gave
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: me a gift card.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: So I said, well, better use it.
• 46:07
  Speaker 5: And DoorDash happens not regularly.
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: In my house, but it seems to be creeping up
• 46:14
  Speaker 4: more and more.
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: Are you a DoorDash guy? No.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: You have to ask Nancy because she believes if God
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: had intended women to cook, he wouldn't have invented takeout food.
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: That's a great question.
• 46:29
  Speaker 6: Great point.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: Great point.
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: Well, my kids use DoorDash all the time, which really,
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: because I talked to them about DoorDash one day because
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: I said, man, who uses DoorDash? Why is it so successful?
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: And they said, we do all the time. And I go,
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: wait a second. Neither of you have jobs.
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: You used your death and you don't know it.
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: That's exactly right.
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: That's exactly right. Let me get this correct.
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: So your family, your kids who are away, Larry, and Natalie,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: your son who is away, they end up charging their
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: orders to you?
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: I have seen them on my card, yes. Even my
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: daughter who lives home and has a job.
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: Can I add?
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: Love her, but.
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: Can I add something to that formula?
• 47:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: I pay for a meal plan.
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: Exactly.
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: I pay for them to go to a cafeteria and
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: they make the pasta at the place that he goes to.
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: My son's at Elon and they actually have a pasta
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: maker there. They have tremendous food. And it's free.
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: It's not that bad, the cuisine. It's not like junior
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: high school or high school. You know, the cafeteria is
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: pretty good in colleges and universities. And yet they still decide, no,
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to use dad's plan.
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: I don't want to walk.
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: I don't want to go to the cafeteria.
• 47:50
  Speaker 5: It's raining. It's cold. It's windy.
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: The cafeteria is closed. And I really need something.
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: So when you see it on your charge card, your
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: charge is coming in, do you go ballistic?
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: No, because I don't check it enough. But then that's
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: the problem.
• 48:04
  Speaker 5: I'm not going to blame my kids all the time
• 48:06
  Speaker 5: because I have been lazy. And I decided to put
• 48:09
  Speaker 5: an order to the diner because, you know, I love
• 48:12
  Speaker 5: the diner.
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: Who doesn't?
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: And I'll get a Greek salad. And I've done this.
• 48:17
  Speaker 5: And I get it. And my, you know, $ 19 Greek
• 48:21
  Speaker 5: salad has now cost me $ 32.
• 48:23
  Speaker 8: What?
• 48:23
  Speaker 7: Oh, yes.
• 48:24
  Speaker 6: The fees, the delivery, the tip, everything.
• 48:31
  Speaker 5: And sometimes if you go to the restaurant versus the
• 48:36
  Speaker 5: price that's on DoorDash or any of the other delivery services,
• 48:40
  Speaker 5: sometimes they're more than if you actually went there.
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: My, my.
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: What a ripoff.
• 48:48
  Speaker 4: Well, not if you don't want to walk.
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: So anyway, DoorDash announced that it's buying Instacart in a
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: $ 17 price. billion dollar deal a 17 billion dollar deal
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: uh and so the two of them are now going
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: to get together and instacart is like a grocery store
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: online they also deliver doordash delivers from restaurants the two
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: of them together i guess they're going to own the food.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: Industry Oh, so it's a monopoly. You're going to get
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: screwed more, the both of you.
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: That's what people are suspecting.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: Well, you said that Nancy does take out. She doesn't
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: do DoorDash?
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: She doesn't let me know. You know, I'm oblivious.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: All the Amazon boxes and then food deliveries, I'm oblivious.
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: Let's get some talkbacks real fast before the 7.30 news. Yeah,
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: that reporter cracks me up. Trump is the hardest working
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: politician in our lifetimes. Probably ever.
• 49:48
  Speaker 20: You know why?
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: Because he wasn't a politician. He was a hard working
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: businessman who was successful. Yeah, I agree with you. That
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: was the stupidest question, the dumbest question. There was an
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: easy way to ask that. Why aren't you going to Kansas?
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: That's all you had to ask in that he would
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: have gone, oh, because he's going to win. You don't say,
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: is it because you're not feeling well? You're assuming something
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: that's not true.
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: True, but there's a strategy behind it. We'll probably know
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: by Monday.
• 50:18
  Speaker 15: Curtis, you were not included in this conversation last year,
• 50:21
  Speaker 15: but I know Larry and Natalie were heavily involved in
• 50:25
  Speaker 15: this conversation about parents that go out trick-or-treating with the carriages,
• 50:31
  Speaker 15: with a couple of beverages, adult beverages. Curtis, have you
• 50:34
  Speaker 15: ever witnessed that in a city? That's my question to you.
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: Oh, hell yeah.
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: Good.
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: Not just the suburban drunks, okay.
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: Listen, you have to somehow sedate yourself when you're out
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: with the mob of kids who have this insatiable desire
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: to never end sex. They want another bag, another bag.
• 50:55
  Speaker 7: No, enough.
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: You got what?
• 50:57
  Speaker 5: No.
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: Have you ever had somebody that looks a little bit
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: too old to be trick-or-treating come to your door?
• 51:03
  Speaker 7: Yeah, me.
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: I'm trick-or-treated, dressed in my Garton Hinges.
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: You're in costume all the time. All the time.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: And believe it or not, people give me stuff. Hey,
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: give me candy.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: Let's get the Daria Offinger now with the 730 News.
• 51:18
  Speaker 7: Daria.
• 51:19
  Speaker 13: Yeah, that's my husband and I, but instead of kids,
• 51:21
  Speaker 13: we have dogs in the stroller.
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: You go trick-or-treating with your husband? We do.
• 51:25
  Speaker 13: Sometimes we do, but we have the three dachshunds in
• 51:28
  Speaker 13: the dog stroller.
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: Do people have dog food for them or bones or treats?
• 51:34
  Speaker 6: They do have treats.
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: Not the kind the dogs should always eat.
• 51:36
  Speaker 13: But yeah, we have done that. This year we'll be
• 51:39
  Speaker 13: at the front door to our apartment complex with a
• 51:40
  Speaker 13: big bowl of candy.
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: We're just those weird people. That's nice.
• 51:44

  Speaker 11: front of a police precinct where a police-organized Halloween event

• 52:22
  Speaker 11: at around 4 p.m., A black sedan hit a parked ambulance,
• 52:26
  Speaker 11: then wound up on the sidewalk. A witness recalls what
• 52:29
  Speaker 11: she heard.
• 52:30
  Speaker 6: The impact was rough.
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: We thought it was a shooting.
• 52:33
  Speaker 6: That's how bad it was. Everyone started running.
• 52:35
  Speaker 11: Two girls, ages 6 and 12, an 8-year-old boy and
• 52:38
  Speaker 11: a 74-year-old woman are among the six taken to the hospital.

  Speaker 11: They're all okay. Cops say it wasn't targeted and have
• 52:44
  Speaker 11: a person of interest in custody. Lisa Salvati, WOR News.

  Speaker 13: If you have Alphabet stock as part of your retirement portfolio,

• 53:44
  Speaker 13: The Islanders beat Minnesota 4-3 in overtime. Next news, 8 o'clock,
• 53:47
  Speaker 13: bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: Up next, our colleague Rob Astorino. Got to ask him,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: why is Vice President J.D. Vance coming in on Monday
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: to campaign for Anthony Constantino in the reddest of all
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: red congressional districts in New York State? On the line
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: right now, our colleague Rob Astorino is running many elections.
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: He's an expert.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: It's crisscrossed the country following the primaries and now the
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: general elections. But Rob, I got to first ask you,
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at the schedule of Vice President J.D. Vance,
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: who has been as busy as President Trump going from
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: state to state on behalf of Republicans. Monday, he's going
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: to be in Rome, New York, in the reddest congressional
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: district in the state for Anthony Constantino?
• 54:39
  Speaker 3: What a waste of time.
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: What is he coming into New York for?
• 54:44
  Speaker 8: I mean, the only reason is it's not comfortable. They
• 54:48
  Speaker 8: don't think that Constantino is where he should be at
• 54:52
  Speaker 8: in the polling. That's the only reason. I mean, the
• 54:55
  Speaker 8: day before, why would you plop into, like you said,
• 54:58
  Speaker 8: a red district? At least Stefanik won it by 20 points.
• 55:01
  Speaker 8: Trump won it by 20 points. So I understand it
• 55:04
  Speaker 8: may not be 20. But I mean, if it's at
• 55:07
  Speaker 8: like two or three, which maybe it is, I can't
• 55:11
  Speaker 8: imagine that. I haven't heard that. I mean, that's really scary.
• 55:16
  Speaker 8: But I don't know why. I mean, Constantino was a
• 55:19
  Speaker 8: big supporter to, you know, to Trump and Vance. So
• 55:22
  Speaker 8: maybe it's a little. gee, we've gone everywhere else. Where
• 55:24
  Speaker 8: else should we go on the last day?
• 55:27
  Speaker 7: I hope it's more that than anything else.
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, you've had your own campaigns and you've
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: been involved in other campaigns. How different is the public
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: polling from the internal polling?
• 55:43
  Speaker 7: It varies.
• 55:43
  Speaker 8: It could be different by a lot or it could
• 55:46
  Speaker 8: be basically on part. I've always found that It's been off,
• 55:51
  Speaker 8: but not by an enormous amount, but it's been off.
• 55:55
  Speaker 8: And if that's the difference, then that's why we're having
• 56:01
  Speaker 8: all these public fights about polls and everything. And I
• 56:04
  Speaker 8: always found the college ones, the Marists, the Quinnipiacs, all
• 56:08
  Speaker 8: of those have been just.
• 56:10
  Speaker 7: They just totally model wrong.
• 56:12
  Speaker 8: I mean there was a poll the other day, I
• 56:13
  Speaker 8: think it was Marist, that they're still using registered voters
• 56:17
  Speaker 8: in their sampling.
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: I mean nobody does that.
• 56:20
  Speaker 8: At this point, it's not registered. It's totally likely voters
• 56:24
  Speaker 8: or to some extent, have you already voted and who
• 56:26
  Speaker 8: did you vote for, you know, with early voting? So
• 56:30
  Speaker 8: that on an internal poll, you do not want anything skewed.
• 56:35
  Speaker 8: You want what you really think will be the exact
• 56:37
  Speaker 8: modeling of the turnout based on 22, not 24, not 20,
• 56:40
  Speaker 8: not 18. Democratic turnout, Republican turnout, all of that matters
• 56:53
  Speaker 8: into what the sample is going to be. And that's
• 56:57
  Speaker 8: the true result. I mean, why would you pay all
• 56:59
  Speaker 8: this money to get skewed results?
• 57:01
  Speaker 7: To feel good? No.
• 57:02
  Speaker 8: You use it as a guide, right? Where to advertise,
• 57:05
  Speaker 8: how to advertise, all those kind of things.
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: Now, Rob, in your backyard, the most expensive congressional race
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: for both sides, both for Congressman Lawler and his challenger, Caitlyn.
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: They brought in their big guns from both sides yesterday.
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: Polls suggest it's neck and neck. What's your sense of
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: what's happening there? Because I have never seen more ads
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: in my life. I wish the election could be tomorrow.
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: It's like nonstop. One is Lawler followed by Caitlyn Lawler,
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: Caitlyn Lawler, Caitlyn.
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: It's like enough already.
• 57:41
  Speaker 8: The only thing Danny the mailman does around here now is–
• 57:45
  Speaker 8: Put Mike Lawler stuff in mailboxes.
• 57:49
  Speaker 21: It's everywhere.
• 57:51
  Speaker 7: But you know what?
• 57:51
  Speaker 8: Look, this is one of the five races around the
• 57:55
  Speaker 8: country that, if it is very close, will determine the House.
• 57:59
  Speaker 8: So he's won before. The Jewish bloc of 30,000 votes
• 58:04
  Speaker 8: is going to be critical. Now, he has done everything
• 58:07
  Speaker 8: humanly possible. He's been a very big advocate and ally
• 58:11
  Speaker 8: for them. They, too, have been for him. I don't
• 58:14
  Speaker 8: see any reason why they would switch on this. So
• 58:17
  Speaker 8: that is significant. And I've seen them switch last minute,
• 58:21
  Speaker 8: trust me, in previous races. So I don't think that's
• 58:24
  Speaker 8: going to happen here. I was with Mike and the
• 58:27
  Speaker 8: team on Sunday and they're feeling decent right now. I mean,
• 58:34
  Speaker 8: it's tough and it's all about turnout. Forget the polling.
• 58:37
  Speaker 8: Polling doesn't matter now. You have You talk about polls
• 58:40
  Speaker 8: right now.
• 58:41
  Speaker 7: It really doesn't matter. I mean, people have voted.
• 58:43
  Speaker 8: You know, I was online.
• 58:44
  Speaker 7: I voted yesterday. So that doesn't matter.
• 58:47
  Speaker 8: It's the get out the vote operation that matters right now.
• 58:50
  Speaker 8: And his team is very, very good. So I still
• 58:54
  Speaker 8: think I've been holding steady. I still think Mike wins
• 58:56
  Speaker 8: this race by two points.
• 58:59
  Speaker 7: Really?
• 58:59
  Speaker 3: Well, thank God you said that, because before that you
• 59:02
  Speaker 3: weren't instilling a lot of confidence when you said, I
• 59:05
  Speaker 3: still feel decent about this. Well, because it is tight.
• 59:10
  Speaker 8: Is tight and Democrats you know I was online yesterday
• 59:12
  Speaker 8: and it's like you know like the zombie movies where
• 59:15
  Speaker 8: they're like their heads are going back and forth and
• 59:18
  Speaker 8: they're their arms are like twitching and there's like stuff
• 59:20
  Speaker 8: coming out of their mouth that's democrats right now at
• 59:23
  Speaker 8: the polls they're out they're out voting and republicans you
• 59:29
  Speaker 8: know have to catch up.
• 59:30
  Speaker 3: Oh let's put you on the record then i i
• 59:32
  Speaker 3: don't you don't need to go through individual races but
• 59:35
  Speaker 3: uh who's going to win the house who's going to
• 59:36
  Speaker 3: win the senate and by how much.
• 59:39
  Speaker 8: Uh Well, you're taking away my whole show tomorrow at
• 59:42
  Speaker 8: four o'clock.
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: But I will tell you this.
• 59:47
  Speaker 8: I do think the House does not hold. I think
• 59:50
  Speaker 8: the Democrats take over the House.
• 59:51
  Speaker 3: I do.
• 59:52
  Speaker 8: I think it's going to be in the maybe up
• 59:54
  Speaker 8: to 20 seat range, 15 to 20.
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: They're going to win by 20 seats.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 8: So they would net they would be up by like 15.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 8: That's I think that's very, very possible.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: But here's the thing.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 8: You know, all the redistricting that they did, that is
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 8: going to help. And they may not hold all of those.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 8: But two years from now, when it's a regular presidential turnout,
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 8: they're going to win those House seats back. So, you know,
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 8: they're in a good position in two years to take
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 8: the House back.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 7: The Senate, I.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 8: Still think, I've been saying it all along, I'm feeling better.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 8: I still think the Senate is held by Republicans.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 3: Because of Michigan and Alaska?
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 8: I don't know what's going to happen in Alaska.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 7: Michigan.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 8: I was just there Monday. I think it's going to
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 8: be a squeaker. I do think Mike Rogers is going
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 8: to win. I don't know if that's, I'm crossing my
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 8: fingers hoping, or I do think he will win because
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 8: of what we're.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 7: Seeing on the ground there.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 8: But Rogers, you know, he's a good candidate, but Abdul,
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 8: it's frightening, man. I was driving through some areas and.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 7: You just see these Abdul signs.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 8: I just want to like scream at these houses.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: Like what's wrong with you?
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 3: All right, Rob, sorry about your show for tomorrow. So
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 3: you'll have to come up with some other surprises. I apologize.

• 1:01:51
  Speaker 6: Don't spread rumors. I am not running.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 22: I will just be running up to the people behind
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 22: the barricades to get their reactions as the people run by.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 6: Next year.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 14: Next year.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 6: She's training. Don't sign me up for that.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 8: Exactly.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 6: I said maybe I would do the Fifth Avenue Mile
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 6: next year.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 4: I'm holding you to that one.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 6: That's fine.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 4: I'm going to do that.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 7: Fine.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 3: Can you run a mile now?
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: You can run a mile.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 6: It's a slow mile, but it's a mile.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 3: That's the great thing about the Fifth Avenue Mile. It
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter. It does.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 6: I mean, I got to show up and show out.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 22: You know, like, if I'm going to run a mile at,
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 22: you know, my age, like, people have to be.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: Like, oh, she's young and she's slow.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 6: Like, I got to really, I got to produce.
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: Are you going to be in the celebrity run?
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 6: Don't they have a media run that we can put
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 6: me in?
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 9: They do.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 6: I'm not a celebrity. Just put me with the media people.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: Oh, you're getting there.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: I like that term, show up and show out.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 2: I'm going to steal that from you.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 6: I like when you steal my terms.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: Have it.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 6: Have at it.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 22: But now we're T-minus two days until more than 60,000 people,
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 22: not including me, flood the borough of Staten Island in
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 22: the morning to run over the Varanzano Bridge and take
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 22: on the TCS New York City Marathon.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 6: 26.2 miles.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 22: Everyone from all over the world coming into New York
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 22: to run their race.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 6: We've got England, Sydney, Mexico, France. So what's their why?
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 23: I want to run all of the world majors, so
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 23: New York's next on the list.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: The power of being challenging myself and keep pushing it
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: to the limit is something that I really love and
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: that helps me emotionally and personally.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 6: We are totally addicted to it.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 5: It is such a feeling when you line up at
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 5: the start and the energy around you is amazing.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 6: Everyone is happy. It's a happy place.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 10: I just turned like 50 years old. 25 years ago,
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 10: my father, for his own 50th anniversary, or birthday, sorry,
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 10: he also ran the marathon.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 7: So it's kind of a.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 3: reproducing what he.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 9: Did, you know?
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 6: A tradition, in a sense.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: In a sense, yeah.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 10: Yes, in a sense.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: Except that it's only once in a lifetime, I think.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 22: That's how a lot of people feel, that running the
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 22: marathon for them, especially when they come in from other countries,
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 22: like this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: 160 countries are represented in the marathon. That's amazing. How
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 3: many countries are there? It's not many more than that.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 6: Exactly. And that's Samuel.
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 22: He's running with a friend who's also from France, one
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 22: of 160 countries, who also turned 50 this year. And
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 22: their kids will watch them run. Across that finish line,
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 22: millions of people are expected to watch along the route
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 22: with the NYPD warning of tight security measures, including roving
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 22: street closures that start tomorrow night as preparation gets underway.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 22: More than 15,000 police barricades line that five borough route.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 22: And Alberto Colleen is very familiar with it. Guess how
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 22: many marathons he's run?
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 3: How many?
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 6: Okay, well, let him tell you.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 21: This will be 141.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 7: 141?
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 6: That's right, 141. How do you keep count?
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 21: 141.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 6: Do you keep every medal? Like, how does it go?
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 21: Yeah, so I think, I don't know, I've never been
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 21: a mom before, but you know how many kids you've had.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 21: So like that, right? You reflect on every race. You should,
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 21: you know, jot down your numbers after every race. So
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 21: after a while, you know, the list starts to grow
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 21: and then it's just part of your routine to To
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 21: track your time, see how you're trending, how you did.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 6: How many marathons? Does that mean you've run a year
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 6: since you started running in 2003?
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 21: Yeah, it was just one a year when I started.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 21: Just recently, it's been going up. Because once you're in
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 21: marathon shape, you're ready to run. My high has been
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 21: 17 a year.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 16: 17 a year.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 3: Madonna, my.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 8: Right?
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 22: And New York City, this is his 11th time running
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 22: New York City and his 14th marathon this year.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 6: So this guy is just going all over running marathons.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 22: And we're talking about the Fifth Avenue mile for me.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: That's incredible.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 6: He really is incredible. He's in great shape, this guy.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 6: Great shape.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 22: Now, if you're not like Alberto and you don't run
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 22: 17 marathons a year... Runners who have been training have
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 22: some advice for some first-time marathoners.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 21: If you did your training, just enjoy the race, run
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 21: your pace. But yeah, take it all in. You know,
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 21: it's a big parade. New Yorkers love a parade.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 3: Just getting to the start line is really the goal.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 3: Everything after that is bonus.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 10: You train in order to finish the race. And once
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 10: you're in the race and you know it's hard, you
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 10: picture yourself crossing the finishing line.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 6: Nobody's born able to run more than a step.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 23: So take it one step at a time and you'll.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 6: Get to the finish line. Which is great. That's what
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 6: I need to keep in mind as I train for
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 6: my Fifth.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 3: Avenue mile, not the marathon.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 6: But I'll be at mile eight. Ken Rosato will be
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 6: at mile 20.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 22: You guys will be at the finish line in Central Park,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 22: which is going to be, I'm sure, thrilling. Because it's
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 22: always thrilling to see how the professionals run, the first
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 22: few amateur runners come in.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 6: I mean, that's pretty exciting.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 3: No, it's really exciting. And we have the whole cast
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 3: of characters back again. Tim McLoone is coming back. We
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 3: have a professional runner that's going to be with us.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 3: It's going to be a great day. And the weather,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: the weather is going to be great, too. It's not
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 3: going to rain like the Fifth Avenue Mile.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 6: Oh, God, I can't. I hate standing out in the rain.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 3: So it's good. Speaking of Tim McLoone, by the way,
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 3: we'll see you again next week. Same time, we'll talk
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 3: about the marathon again, maybe.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 3: When we come back, the great Tim McClune. It's 8 o'clock. Hey, Curtis,
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: have you ever met Tim McClune or ever been to
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 3: one of his restaurants?
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 2: I don't think so.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: Oh, he's a great guy. You're going to have a
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 3: blast with this. Tim McClune is here with us right now.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: Tim McClune is my partner for the 710WOR broadcast of
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: the TCS New York City Marathon. Listen to this. He
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 3: is a New Jersey legend. He's a New Jersey Hall
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: of Famer. Let me just finish this. And he's a restaurateur.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 3: He's a former Harvard All-American and participant in the very first,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 3: the very first five-barrel marathon in 1976. So why aren't
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 3: you running this year?
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 7: Which is pretty amazing since I'm only 24 years old.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: It's pretty amazing you still say you're 24 years old.
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 7: Curtis, what do you mean you've never been to one
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 7: of my restaurants? What the hell? Come on.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 4: We're going to have to get him to New Jersey.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think I have been.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: But, you know, once I'm there, I'll be more than
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: happy to bring my sponges and wash.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: The dishes in the kitchen afterwards.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 7: So, Tim.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 3: Talk about the very first marathon and how it's grown
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 3: to what it is now.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah. In a sense, looking back on it, it's not
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 7: that big a deal. Fred Lebo, who was the meat
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 7: director at the time, this really iconoclastic figure, he decided,
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 7: because he'd been in, I don't know which one he
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 7: went to. He was in Europe. And he saw one
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 7: that ran through the streets instead of being locked into
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 7: a course like Central Park where you would do five
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 7: laps or whatever it was. And he thought this would
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 7: be a great thing to do in New York. And
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 7: I don't know how he convinced the town mothers and
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 7: fathers to let him do it. But he called me,
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 7: he called any number of people. He was actually recruiting
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 7: for the race. And, you know, I was a pretty
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 7: good runner and stuff. So he asked if I'd be
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 7: willing to do it. And I'd run one marathon, and
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 7: it did not go well. I'd run Boston totally arrogant
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 7: and unprepared. I was a pretty good collegiate runner. I
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 7: wasn't a great runner, but I was all right. And
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 7: I went in there never having run more than 10
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 7: miles before. And then this thing is so slow. They're
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 7: going so slowly. I should pick it up here. At
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 7: any rate, so Fred says, do you want to come
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 7: and do this new one? And it was remarkable in
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 7: that I don't remember how many people I should know.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 7: It was like 1,700 or something like that. And we thought, wow,
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 7: look at this humongous field of people where it's now,
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 7: you know, 50,000. And there were so many interesting things
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 7: about it. One is that he wanted to get all
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 7: five boroughs and they couldn't figure out a way to
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 7: get the Bronx. And so we actually, at some point
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 7: in the race, I don't remember where it was, we
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 7: had to get off the course and and run for
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 7: like a very, very short period of time, almost like yards,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 7: touch the Bronx, and then come right back on. I
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 7: don't remember. And the other thing was, there were very
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 7: few people out watching it. We ran along the river
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 7: on the east side, and there was nobody there. It
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 7: just was like another road race. Back in those days,
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 7: I would go into races that had 38 competitors in them.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 7: And it was just a different world. So now it's
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 7: getting kind of lonely over there on the east side.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 7: There's nobody around. And my family was following me in
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 7: a car. They could do that, too, because there just
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 7: wasn't that crowd. And I'd see them a whole bunch
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 7: of times.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 4: That's amazing.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 5: None of that's happening now with 60,000 runners on the course.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you get a... If you bought a car,
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 3: you'd get arrested.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 7: The worst part of the whole thing is that I
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 7: got kind of excited and I was running really well.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 7: I'd been in Philadelphia the night before with my band
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 7: because I was a full-time musician then. So it was
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 7: kind of not great prep to be out playing with
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 7: the band and then getting my car in the morning
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 7: and then go to the Veritano.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: Tim, what was the name of your band?
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 7: At that time, it was the Atlantic Coast Band.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 4: Atlantic Coast Band.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 7: I'm sure you remember it.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 21: Oh, sure.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: I bought your album.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 5: And now you're going to be sitting in the broadcast
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 5: booth with Larry from 8 to noon on Sunday.
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 6: A little different perspective, huh?
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 7: I forget what place I was in, but I was
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 7: moving up, and I was in really good shape at
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 7: the time. So I'm running with this guy, and he
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 7: says to me, you know, I can tell I'm holding
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 7: you back. You should go ahead. And that's all I
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 7: needed to hear, you know. So now I kind of
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 7: take off. I could have sworn I was shot by
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 7: someone at around the 21 mile mark. We just never
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 7: found the exit wound. And I began the walking and
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 7: running program. I'd walk a little and then I'd run
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 7: a little. And then, oh, it was just the worst.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 7: And I will tell you the truth, a friend of mine,
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 7: Mike Rodano, lived down in the village. And he picked
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 7: me up at the finish. And by this point, I
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 7: am totally debilitated. And I find myself in a tub
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 7: in his apartment on Charles Street in the village, listening
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 7: to the Giants quarterback getting sacked. And I'm thinking, well,
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 7: at least he got paid for it. Oh, my God.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 7: And I had to walk down the steps backwards for
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 7: a few days after that. I couldn't go straight.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 3: Down the steps.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 14: Wow.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 3: Well, Tim, you were asking about that.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 7: And it was athletic arrogance. When I was in college,
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 7: my rival was a guy named Frank Shorter. He ran
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 7: for Yale, and he ended up winning the Olympic Games
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 7: in 1972. And when we were in college together, he
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 7: would freely admit this. he was pretty beatable because he
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 7: wasn't training hard and we were doing whatever we could.
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 7: And Frank Shorter was pretty beatable. And then when he
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 7: wins the Olympic gold, the world kind of like, well,
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 7: how hard can it be? Frank Shorter won the gold.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: Tim, my only involvement, uh, in the marathon, New York
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: city marathon was, uh, helping the Achilles track club with
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: the guardian angels. It was a woman named Zoe Kaplowitz,
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: who is actually from the Lower East side. She had MS.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: So she would start at the start with everyone else,
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: but she wouldn't finish until the next day, 12 noon.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: And she went on to participate in London and Tokyo
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: where I have guardian angels. And man, she was a
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: total gamer cause it was tough on her, but she,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: always pushed, and they allowed her and others who had
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: some disabilities to participate in the race.
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 3: And they still do, and it's a big part of
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 3: the race now, including the wheelchair race. But there's other
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 3: people with other disabilities that beat them and then are
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: able to run. They're some of the most inspirational stories
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: in all of it. So now you look at the
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 3: marathon now, and we've now been together since the last marathon.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 3: What do you think of how this has grown? It's
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 3: the biggest marathon in the world now.
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 7: Well, my son, who's 29, one of my boys, Jack,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 7: lives in the city. And he says it's his favorite
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 7: day of the year. And he means it. He means it.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 7: And there are just literally millions of people who feel
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 7: that way about the marathon. When I was in college
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 7: up in Boston... We used to, on Marathon Monday, we
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 7: would go out to watch the marathons. And you would
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 7: be sitting there and say, hey, here comes one. And
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 7: you'd see somebody toodling over. The first time I ran Boston,
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 7: there were 500 people on the race. And it was
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 7: just nothing like this. And Curtis, you're so right about
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 7: the Achilles group. I spent, I think, about 10 years
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 7: covering the marathon. I did the TV broadcasting. And I
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 7: would run in the race and interview people. And some
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 7: of the things I saw were just hard to believe.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 7: There was one man who, believe it or not, his
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 7: wheelchair was turned around. He went backwards, and his only
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 7: power was pushing forward with a foot.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 7: That was the only thing he had. He couldn't use
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 7: his arms on the wheels. He would turn around and
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 7: just push with his foot. I don't know how long
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 7: it took him, but I... I ran along with his guide.
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 7: And then one year I ran with a blind runner.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 7: And I thought that was amazing. How do you do that?
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 7: And they had a guide. It was a woman. She
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 7: had a guide. And she would occasionally say, hi, Stephan. Hi, Stephan.
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 7: Tell her, lift your legs up. There's some bumpy whatever
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 7: coming up here. It's amazing to me, the number of amputees,
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 7: the number of people that take this on. They're embarrassing
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 7: almost in a way because you realize how much harder
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 7: it is for them You know, all that stuff I
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 7: said to you about my experience was true. But I
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 7: don't know how they do it. I don't. And it's
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 7: so moving. When the Achilles race starts in the morning
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 7: on the bridge, it starts with tears from everybody. You know,
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 7: they have a separate start and a little bit before
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 7: everybody else. And when that gun goes off and they go,
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 7: and you see, in some cases, there's very little movement.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 7: They're not running across that bridge. They're doing whatever they
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 7: can to get across the bridge. And we talk about
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 7: this all the time, but the Verrazano Bridge is uphill.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 7: The first mile is uphill. And then it just brings
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 7: tears to your eyes to watch what humans are capable
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 7: of when thrown the biggest obstacles we could all ever
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 7: possibly imagine. And I couldn't imagine it. I couldn't imagine
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 7: being that tough and that resilient that I could do
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 7: what these people do. It's unbelievable. That is amazing. And
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 7: I remember those.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's inspirational too, isn't it?
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 7: It is. I do tell people sometimes, though, that when
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 7: people say they watch the marathon as they go and
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 7: they get inspired to do it themselves, I advise them,
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 7: don't be right at the finish line. Because it's not pretty.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the finish line can get a little hairy sometimes
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 5: because people push themselves to the point where they almost
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 5: collapse and do sometimes and other things.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 3: Well, there's some– I know. And there's some people who
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 3: have injured themselves. somewhere on the race and they still finish.
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 7: Oh, I know.
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 6: It's incredible.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 5: And I really encourage everybody to take a listen on
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 5: Sunday with Tim and Larry and the rest of our
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 5: crew from 8 to 12 because it's a story. It's
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 5: a four-hour story that just keeps evolving and changing and
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 5: it gets more exciting. And it's really something to listen to.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 3: Tim, have you ever considered talk radio? I think we
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 3: asked you two questions.
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 7: I know that Curtis isn't going to be listening to
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 7: the race because he's going to be in one of
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 7: my restaurants having brunch. There you go.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 3: He passed me a note. Will it be for free?
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 7: No, but if he pays cash, 5% off. There you go.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 2: That's an enticement there.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 3: Thanks a lot, Tim. I'm looking forward to it. Thank
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 3: you so much. I can't wait.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 7: And Larry, you're great. I love working with you.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 3: Well, feelings mutual. And so the two of us will
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 3: be doing that starting at eight in the morning.
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 7: Actually, Natalie be telling us what to do. I know.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 3: I know. Thank God for Natalie. We'd be lost, huh?
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 7: That's the truth.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Dolan, who I hate, the owner of the Knicks,
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: doesn't pay his property taxes, but that's not the issue.
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: He had lobbied, if you remember Larry and Natalie, right
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: at the parade itself, the victory parade for the New
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: York Knicks, and especially with Captain Jalen Brunson. Like, man,
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: we're on our way, not to Disney World, but to
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 1: the White House. The president wants to receive us and
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: honor us because he was a true Knicks fan, still is.
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: used to sit courtside, you know when a politician knows
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: the game, like Barack Obama knew.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 2: Basketball, you would think, why wouldn't you go to the
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 2: White House?
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: The president actually came and watched your victory, one of
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: the preceding games that led to your world championship. And remember,
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: Jalen Brunson pretty much said, well, we'll make the decision
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: as a team. You know, I can't make that decision
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: as a captain. And it was put off. It was
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 1: put off. And then pregame camp took place, you know,
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: where they're practicing. And he was asked again and again,
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: put it off, put it off. And now Jimmy Dolan
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: is saying, I don't get this. I pay all these
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: millions of dollars for these guys. I asked him to
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: do one thing. What are the 17 Knicks? You know,
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 1: the starters, the second team in the scrubs. And you see,
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: if you show up a baseball team or a football
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: team and a few of the guys are not there,
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 1: it's not as noticeable, Larry.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 2: Cause you know, you're carrying.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 1: Football, like 50 guys, baseball, you're carrying like, you know,
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 1: 32 guys, but basketball, you're only carrying 17 guys and
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: it would be very noticeable. And apparently, uh, Without saying publicly,
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: Jalen Brunson and the Knicks refused to go to the
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: White House to be honored by Donald Trump.
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 3: But it seems like the only guy that's saying this
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 3: is Stephen A.
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 7: Smith.
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 3: And Stephen A. Smith has his own negative relationship, much
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 3: like you, with James Dolan. Here's what he says. I
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 3: don't know whether it's true or not, but I believe
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 3: anything when it comes to James Dolan because he is
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: a walking embodiment of petulance. The man is as petty
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 3: as they come. So my feeling is he's not allowed
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 3: in the Madison Square Garden either.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 2: I'm amazed Stephen A. Smith knows the word petulance.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 3: Oh, come on.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: That's a new one for him. He's a smart guy.
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: But we share that one thing in common. I think, look,
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 1: by now you kind of get the drift that they
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: can't get enough of the Knicks to lobby one another
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 1: to make the trip to the White House.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: So my suggestion is.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: If you're not going to do it as a team,
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: don't allow this to be another point of derision in
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 1: a clubhouse in which, let's face it, you've got to
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: be better than you've ever been before because now everybody's
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: going to be gunning for the champions.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 3: Well, let's find out if it's absolutely true because Stephen
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 3: A has his own problems with Dolan, and right now
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 3: he's the only one reporting it. Let's get some talkbacks.
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 7: Larry, that one hit home for me.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 15: My kids, they both go to the University of Kentucky,
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 15: and I have a trucking business, right?
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 3: So I gave them a company card.
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 7: Huge mistake, brother. Huge.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: The amounts of money spent on DoorDash and Uber was.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 9: Unbelievable.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 7: I feel your pain, Larry.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 3: Amen.
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 7: Amen.
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 3: We should join a recovery group.
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 19: College student mentality is totally different than the realistic world
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 19: of the parents. My son called me from college a
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 19: number of years ago to say how wonderful it is.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 19: Everything there is free. And I sat him down and
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 19: explained to him, no, nothing is free. I'm paying $ 50, 000
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 19: a year for that. So ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my kids, unfortunately, are the same way, and I
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 3: am the fairy princess.
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 2: Princess?
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 7: Yes. All right.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 3: I grant all their wishes.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: I agree with that. You are a princess.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: Now, let's give away some tickets.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 24: It's tough to know what to do with your money
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 24: these days. What was it, just a few days ago?
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 24: The Dow Jones dropped another 240 points, and I can't
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 24: tell you how frustrating it is to not know what
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 24: that means.
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 1: Now's your chance to win a pair of tickets to
• 1:24:17

• 1:24:42
  Speaker 15: Morning, guys.
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 13: Today, it's going to be dry, mild, and breezy with
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 13: a high of 68 degrees. A weather channel forecast is
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 13: coming up. Cornell University is making some changes after allegations
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 13: of a sexual assault on campus pushed the Ivy League
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 13: school into the national spotlight.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 23: Governor Kathy Hochul says there's now an agreement between state
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 23: police and Cornell requiring sexual offense complaints to be sent
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 23: to the state police for their own investigation. This comes
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 23: after the Ithaca Police Department revealed it was never notified
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 23: of an alleged 2024 gang rape. Meanwhile, faculty members at
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 23: Cornell are starting a process of a no-confidence vote connected
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 23: to how sex assault allegations by a former student were
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 23: handled by Cornell's administration. I'm Scott Pringle, WOR News.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 13: There are just a few days until the midterms, but
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 13: a lot of people aren't waiting to vote.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 18: Nearly 45 million Americans have already cast their ballot in
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 18: this midterm election. That number already ahead of the 33
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 18: million that voted in the 2022 midterm election just four
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 18: years ago.
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 13: That's ABC's Rachel Scott. President Trump has shortened his blitz
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 13: to the midterms. He's campaigning today in Florida, but he
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 13: scrapped the rest of his appearances.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 25: It's the final stretch, but President Trump has canceled rallies
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 25: planned for this weekend in Kansas and Iowa.
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 2: You know what the reason is? I don't feel I
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: have to go.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 25: Instead, the White House says Trump will be in Florida,
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 25: where he has one final in-person rally, and will then
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 25: address supporters by calling into campaign events and speaking remotely.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 13: ABC's Jonathan Karl. Kids in New York City will not
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 13: go to school on Election Day, but they will be
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 13: in class. The district will pivot that day to remote learning.
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 13: And we are a little less than an hour to
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 13: the opening bell on Wall Street, and Alphabet is only
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 13: hoping things go a little better today than they did yesterday.
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 13: because the company had its biggest stock drop in history.
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 13: Google's parent company fell nearly 13% after reporting its third
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 13: quarter profits. That is about $ 482 billion in losses. The
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 13: Islanders beat Minnesota 4-3 in overtime. Next news, 9 o'clock
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 13: bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Derry. Have a good weekend. You know what?
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 3: Joe Neumeier has a movie out that I don't think
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 3: many of us heard about that he says is a
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 3: powerful five-star movie that's going to hit theaters this weekend. Plus,
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 3: he's going to remember the great Patrick Stewart, who we
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 3: had a lengthy interview with. All of that coming up
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 3: with Joe Neumeier after the break. And congratulations to Jerry
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 3: Fry from East Williston, New York, who just won a
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 3: pair of tickets to see comedian John Mulaney's final stop
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: on his nine-night, nine-venue Mulaney Takes Manhattan tour. January 15th
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 3: at Madison Square Garden. Next week at 825, tickets to
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 3: a great double bill. Listen to this. Def Leppard and
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 3: the Goo Goo Dolls. Joe Neumeier coming up. Let's bring
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 3: in Joe Neumeier, film journalist, of course, WOR movie minted host.
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 3: And I'll tell you what, Joe, be still my heart.
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 3: I'm looking here. You have a movie that you're calling
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 3: a really powerful five star war film. You know what?
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 3: Is that going to make the poster? Have you made
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 3: a poster for a movie?
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 7: I actually have.
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 20: I made the ad for the fourth Indiana Jones movie,
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 20: and I think something else I did. But yeah, no,
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 20: this is incredible. This movie is called The Mosquito Bowl, Larry,
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 20: and I know how you love Saving Private Ryan, so
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 20: I'm going to lead off with this and say that
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 20: it's sort of... It matches Saving Private Ryan in.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 3: Terms of intensity.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 20: It's in theaters now. It's going to be on Netflix
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 20: in a month. And it's directed by Peter Berg, who
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 20: made Friday Night Lights and Lone Survivor. And it's based
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 20: on a true story. It's about these four college guys
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 20: in World War II who, during their experience, and we
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 20: see them a little bit before the war, during their
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 20: experience in the Pacific Theater in World War II, it
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 20: is intense.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 3: The actual mascara Bowl is.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 20: A minor part of it, which was a little kind
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 20: of football game that was put together on Okinawa because
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 20: somebody had recognized, some higher-up had recognized these four college
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 20: football guys and said, let's get this game together. But
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 20: it's really about their experiences and about really retelling. It's
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 20: got respect for the men and women, for the men
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 20: who fought in World War II, but it is for
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 20: the men and women who serve, but it also is
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 20: about really the intensity of what war is. And it,
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 20: and it really is, it's an intense experience. The sound
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 20: in the theaters is incredible, but this movie really is powerful.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 20: It's terrifying.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 3: It's, it's moving.
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 20: It reminds me a little of Gallipoli, this great movie
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 20: from the early eighties about, uh, Australians, it is one
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 20: of the best war films I've ever seen, one of
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 20: the most moving war films I've ever seen. Performances are great.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 20: Jack Nicholson's son, Ray Nicholson, is in there. He's terrific.
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 20: You just have to go in and be prepared, though,
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 20: because it starts off a little slow, but once it
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 20: gets into the war scenes, it's like nothing I've ever seen.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 20: And we've got a couple of good movies coming up
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 20: over the next few weeks.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 3: Well, it's Oscar time, right?
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 20: Too much coffee. It's Oscar time, yeah. But you're going
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 20: to say, what's up with Neumeier? He had too much coffee,
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 20: all these five-star movies.
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 2: Well, I have no homework for you this week, Joe Neumeier.
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: But I've got.
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 20: Homework for you, which will involve Patrick Stewart, though, Curtis.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 20: But I want to hear what you had to say.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 2: So no homework, but.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: Well, that's exactly what I wanted to ask you, because
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 1: what an iconic thespian. You know, we've seen him in
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: so many different forms. And I know you've interviewed him.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: You knew him personally, so if you could share some
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: of that with us upon his passing.
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 20: Patrick Stewart, I was lucky enough to talk to him
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 20: a couple of times once in the late 90s for
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 20: a Star Trek movie, but I had this great 90-minute
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 20: career over that. It was like two hours career conversation
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 20: with him on stage in 2017 when Logan was out
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 20: and we were talking. It was for SAG, the Screen
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 20: Actors Guild, and we spent time before that just chatting.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 20: He was an extraordinary person. And I really just want
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 20: to say, like anybody who sort of thinks like, oh,
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 20: Star Trek, it's science fiction.
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 7: No, no, no.
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 20: Like what he brought to that character of Captain Picard.
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 20: That's we can start with that. And then there's so
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 20: many other things he did. But we can start with
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 20: that where it was he brought to that to that
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 20: character and that and that franchise and really to all
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 20: of sort of pop culture, this notion of a of
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 20: a of a smart, level, humane leader who was also
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 20: flawed and complicated. And people think of Star Trek, and
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 20: they think of William Shatner, and Shatner was great, of.
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 2: Course, and is great.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 20: But Stewart brought something else, and he brought this level
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 20: of humanity to that character and to that franchise. And
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 20: a lot of it is sort of, people think like, oh,
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 20: it's a you know, space guns and beaming up and,
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 20: and the starship enterprise, but like the American Western, like science,
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 20: Star Trek is just a genre. It's just human stories
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 20: in set in a, in a certain genre. And, and
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 20: there are episodes of that show that I think rank
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 20: with some of the best, the best, you know, genre
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 20: writing of, of any type. And then you add things
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 20: like Nat and I were just talking before I came on.
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 20: His theater work was extraordinary. He did that one man
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 20: Christmas carol. that when I saw it in 1994, I
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 20: had never experienced that story before. He did 30 characters
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 20: all on stage. You would have believed that he was
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 20: the size of the giant Ghost of Christmas Present because
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 20: he was just sitting on a couple of boxes. And
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 20: when he kind of comes towards the audience with his
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 20: arms outstretched to say, God bless us all, everyone, you
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 20: felt like enfolded into his personality.
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 3: He was funny.
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 2: He was puckish.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 20: He loved doing comedy. He was the voice of the
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 20: poop emoji.
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 3: You know, I, I got to talk, I got to
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 3: talk to him one time and I love what you
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 3: said about him. So I didn't know him like you did.
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 3: I just got to talk to him at the one time,
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 3: but I was a little nervous because you know, it's
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 3: Patrick Stewart, a Shakespearean actor. And I got to talk
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 3: to him, man, he was incredibly down to earth and
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 3: He was funny. He was nice. I went away from
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 3: that interview as a Patrick Stewart fan of him, the person,
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 3: not just the actor. That's right. That's right.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 20: He was a really down to earth guy. You know,
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 20: he was a, he came from a tough working class background, uh, in,
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 20: in rural England. And, uh, and you kind of felt that.
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 20: And yet you also felt this sense of, of somebody
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 20: who loved people. Like he loved stories. He loved people. And,
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 20: and when he did many of the X-Men movies and
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 20: professor Xavier, he's going to be seen this December in
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 20: the Avengers movie doomsday. Uh, that's going to be his,
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 20: his final performance. He did a, a small bit as,
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 20: as professor Xavier, like that, like his performance in Logan
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 20: is terrific. You really felt like he was somebody who
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 20: was in touch with what people were about and, and
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 20: he loved doing what he did. And, uh, and yeah,
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 20: you just, every experience and, and he did Moby Dick
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 20: on TV, a Christmas Carol on TV. Those are great
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 20: ones to watch, dig them up, uh, on, on Amazon prime.
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 7: They're there.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 3: Hey, real quick, such a great human real quick. We're
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 3: just running out of time, but real quick, what is
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 3: your homework for Curtis?
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 20: Oh, my homework for Curtis is actually, if he's going
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 20: to be watching anything for Halloween this weekend, to watch
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 20: the remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers from 1978,
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 20: which I put up there as one of my great
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 20: horror films, one of my favorite movies to watch at Halloween.
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 20: So I don't know what Curtis has got scheduled for
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 20: Halloween weekend.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: My wife loves all kinds of horror movies. She'll binge
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 1: watch all week. This is her favorite holiday, Halloween. So
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 1: you leave in good standing with me here, Joe.
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, great. A lot of times you have to give
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 2: your verbal beat down.
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 14: All right.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 20: In honor of Patrick Stewart.
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 2: Make it so.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 7: Exactly.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, he was so good. And that was a great tribute.
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 1: That was a great tribute. And you also, Larry. But anyway,
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: up next, we'll have results from the world's largest Halloween
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 1: parade in Greenwich Village, which I participate in every year
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 1: with the Guardian Angels. And of course, The results of
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 1: Marathon Day that 710WOR with Larry, Natalie, Natalie Migliore, and
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 1: the whole staff is involved in up next. Saturday night,
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 1: I and the Guardian Angels will be in the annual
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 1: Greenwich Village Halloween Day Parade, which is now the largest
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: in the world, and I've been with it for many,
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: many years, and I've seen it grown, just like the
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 1: New York City Marathon. And I've been at Carnival one time,
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 1: Carnival in Rio de Janeiro with the Guardian Angels there.
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 1: It's not quite yet at that Carnival level, but there
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 1: are so many people who practice all year their routines,
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: spend an incredible amount of their own resource on coming
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 1: up with costumes and uniforms. And it was the only
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 1: contest I won last year. Obviously, I lost being mayor.
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 2: But there were more.
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 1: People dressed like Curtis Sliwa than Zoran Mondami. Obviously, Andrew
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 1: Evil Eyes Cuomo, that was a little too dystopian. Even
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump, who's like a fixture, you know, of people
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 1: wanting to dress up like him.
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 2: So we'll see if that trend continues this year.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 1: Look, our own general sales department, they had their Halloween
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 1: parade and everybody was dressed up like Curtis Sliwa and
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: the Guardian Angel. So I think I'm going to win
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 1: this contest again.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 3: I didn't know you won it before.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, last year. There were more people dressed up.
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 3: Because you're the best Curtis Lewa.
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and by the way, I'll have lots of reports
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 1: of any of the politicking that's going on there. Because remember,
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: there's not much time left until November 3rd.
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 3: Do you think that they're going to show up?
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 19: No.
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 1: No, I show up every year. But for some reason,
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 1: the politicians stay away, to be honest with you. But hey,
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: the politicians sometimes do come out. To the New York
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 1: City Marathon, they have, at least in the past, to
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 1: meet and greet those that make it.
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 2: Through the track.
• 1:37:01

  Speaker 1: the marathon.
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 8: When I ran my first New York City marathon, that
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 8: last 300 yards.
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 7: You're in the park, people screaming. I started sprinting it.
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 7: I wasn't breaking any records.
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 1: I start sprinting, then 200 yards, they're all yelling, and
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 1: I start getting slower.
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 7: At 100 yards, I broke down crying, saying, I'm not
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 7: going to finish this.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 21: I crawled across, basically, and someone said, yeah, don't ever
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 21: do that again.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 6: Oh, they didn't tell him that?
• 1:38:48
