- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, we have a hurricane coming, the first hurricane of
- 0:04Speaker 1: this season. It's really late. It's been strange that there's
- 0:07Speaker 1: been nothing until now. And it's supposed to hit the
- 0:10Speaker 1: panhandle possibly as a Cat 3. And if you've noticed,
- 0:15Speaker 1: I haven't said the name of the hurricane yet because
- 0:18Speaker 1: apparently nobody can pronounce it. Even the Florida governor who
- 0:24Speaker 1: deals with hurricanes all the time, he passed. Because it's
- 0:29Speaker 1: not normal.
- 0:30Speaker 2: Oh, he's great.
- 0:46Speaker 3: But when I first started, remember I said it to
- 0:49Speaker 3: the both of you, Natalie, and to Larry. I said
- 0:51Speaker 3: it sounds like the newest leader of ISIS, Al-Qaeda, or Hamas.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Well, it sort of sounds like ISIS. It's ISIS, I think,
- 0:59Speaker 1: or ISIS.
- 1:01Speaker 4: ISIS?
- 1:02Speaker 1: ISIS, that's it.
- 1:03Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 1:03Speaker 1: What a dumb name. ISIS. Let's see if we have
- 1:07Speaker 1: Ray Stajic on the line, the meteorologist for WOR and
- 1:11Speaker 1: the Weather Channel. And have you been pronouncing it right?
- 1:14Speaker 1: Have you been practicing it all day?
- 1:17Speaker 5: My head hurts.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Please tell us how to pronounce it.
- 1:21Speaker 5: Really, I mean, it's Isaias.
- 1:24Speaker 4: Isaias.
- 1:26Speaker 6: Isaias.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Isaias. Where did that come from? Who chooses these names?
- 1:31Speaker 5: I have no clue. You know, we had that discussion
- 1:33Speaker 5: this morning. Our hurricane expert, Dr. Rick, I was like,
- 1:37Speaker 5: he used to work at the Hurricane Center.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Down in Miami. And I was like, Dr.
- 1:40Speaker 5: Nab, who does this?
- 1:43Speaker 2: I said, how can you just go with one syllables?
- 1:46Speaker 5: Like Ray or Rick.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 1:49Speaker 5: Or John or Bill. Or just give them numbers like
- 1:52Speaker 5: Storm 1A and Storm 1B.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Since you asked, I have the origin. You want to
- 1:57Speaker 1: hear the origin of the name?
- 1:58Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, please.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Spanish and Portuguese form of the biblical Hebrew name Yeshayahu. What?
- 2:05Speaker 1: So that ought to clear things up for you, which
- 2:07Speaker 1: means Yahoo is salvation. Yeshayahu. That's it. Very good. Yeshayahu.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Yehahu is salvation or God saves in Hebrew.
- 2:19Speaker 3: Now, I got to tell you guys, we used to
- 2:21Speaker 3: call it, what a yahoo that guy is.
- 2:25Speaker 1: That was a.
- 2:25Speaker 3: Term that we would commonly, what a yahoo, what a schlub,
- 2:29Speaker 3: what a yambo.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Where did they get these names from?
- 2:33Speaker 4: We're coming up with our own names next year because
- 2:35Speaker 4: I think yahoo would be a great name for a storm.
- 2:37Speaker 1: How about Hurricane Yambo?
- 2:39Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:40Speaker 1: I like that one. Okay. Isaias.
- 2:42Speaker 5: I'm back to it. Bill, Ray, Nick, John, let's go
- 2:47Speaker 5: with Mary.
- 2:48Speaker 1: Don't leave out those female genders, please. Come on. I
- 2:51Speaker 1: heard you saying all males there. Come on, Ray. No,
- 2:53Speaker 1: I said Mary. Oh, okay. Okay. Right away, you want
- 2:57Speaker 1: to pounce.
- 3:00Speaker 6: You're learned.
- 3:01Speaker 5: It only took me a couple of months, but I
- 3:03Speaker 5: got you.
- 3:07Speaker 1: So what can you tell us about Isaias? No, Isaias.
- 3:13Speaker 5: Hurricane.
- 3:14Speaker 1: All right. Isaias.
- 3:16Speaker 5: Advisory is coming out now every three hours. It's full updates, 5A, 11A, 5P, 11P,
- 3:24Speaker 5: and then intermediate advisories where they send updates out. So
- 3:27Speaker 5: Hurricane Hunters out there. The last update, 110 mile per hour,
- 3:31Speaker 5: Category 2. One mile per hour away from being a
- 3:34Speaker 5: major hurricane, which starts at 111. Probably strengthen a little
- 3:38Speaker 5: bit more of the Hurricane Center. does bring it to 115,
- 3:41Speaker 5: and then tries to weaken it right before landfall somewhere around,
- 3:47Speaker 5: let's say, near Pensacola, the western panhandle in that area
- 3:51Speaker 5: of Florida, and then takes it onshore, weakens, starts accelerating
- 3:55Speaker 5: forward momentum as it does weaken, and it'll make a turn,
- 3:59Speaker 5: a little jog toward the west before it heads northeast.
- 4:01Speaker 5: And at that point, it's going to head in our
- 4:04Speaker 5: direction as we look ahead towards Sunday and Sunday night.
- 4:07Speaker 5: You're going to get some rain and showers, maybe up
- 4:10Speaker 5: to an inch of rain. I don't think big impacts here,
- 4:12Speaker 5: but at least some wet weather around. But obviously, as
- 4:15Speaker 5: you get down into the southeast, where we see landfall,
- 4:19Speaker 5: we're going to see a water rise, that storm surge
- 4:21Speaker 5: of water coming in off the Gulf. And then you've
- 4:24Speaker 5: got rain, heavy rain and flooding. Severe weather, as you
- 4:26Speaker 5: traditionally do on the east side of the eyewall, where
- 4:29Speaker 5: you'll get severe weather, including tornadoes in the southeastern U.S.
- 4:33Speaker 5: And the heavy rain, the flood risk will move inland.
- 4:36Speaker 5: But I think here it's just rain. I don't think
- 4:39Speaker 5: we have much of a flood risk at all. Just
- 4:41Speaker 5: a damp Sunday forecast that looks like it's going to
- 4:44Speaker 5: be the worst of it.
- 4:45Speaker 2: All right.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Two things of importance.
- 4:47Speaker 3: Donald Trump going to the Bulldogs, Georgia versus Alabama. He'll
- 4:52Speaker 3: get a great reception. Is this going to be wiped
- 4:55Speaker 3: out because of this storm slash hurricane going right through
- 4:59Speaker 3: that area?
- 5:01Speaker 5: No, I think the worst is going to be well past.
- 5:04Speaker 5: I mean, it'd be a little breezy, maybe some showers
- 5:07Speaker 5: in Tuscaloosa, 630 central kickoff for the Bulldogs and the
- 5:12Speaker 5: Crimson Tide. But the worst of it's going to be gone.
- 5:14Speaker 5: But they've canceled just about everything else before the game.
- 5:16Speaker 5: There's no tailgate. There's none of that stuff. But it
- 5:19Speaker 5: will be nasty before and during the day in central,
- 5:23Speaker 5: south central Alabama. But it should be improving fast. as
- 5:26Speaker 5: we head toward kickoff.
- 5:27Speaker 1: Oh, he'll love it because he'll get a great reception.
- 5:29Speaker 3: Second, you totally didn't mention Monday, Columbus Day Parade. Everybody
- 5:34Speaker 3: wants to forget it up Fifth Avenue. What's the weather
- 5:37Speaker 3: forecast going to be for all those people who don't
- 5:41Speaker 3: even want to acknowledge Christopher Columbus anymore?
- 5:45Speaker 5: In the morning, there could be some lingering showers. I
- 5:48Speaker 5: think they'll be ending by probably 7 or 8 o'clock
- 5:50Speaker 5: if there's still some leftover showers. for the parade, I
- 5:53Speaker 5: don't think it's going to be a bunch of rain
- 5:55Speaker 5: at all. The afternoon, we might get some sun in
- 5:57Speaker 5: near 70 degrees.
- 5:58Speaker 2: Good, good.
- 5:58Speaker 1: Thank you. Thank you. When you said it wasn't going
- 6:00Speaker 1: to hit the football game, it was going to be
- 6:03Speaker 1: later than the storm. So the storm will have moved
- 6:07Speaker 1: past by that point. Is that because, because I'm remembering
- 6:11Speaker 1: some past storms, they stuck around for a while or
- 6:14Speaker 1: they were very large and there was remnants of it
- 6:17Speaker 1: at the very least for hours and hours and hours.
- 6:20Speaker 1: Is this one slow-moving, or is it that big, or
- 6:24Speaker 1: is it just the normal timing? No, not slow-moving.
- 6:27Speaker 5: Right now, forward speed northeast at 14 miles per hour,
- 6:30Speaker 5: and it will accelerate in forward speed. Every tropical system,
- 6:34Speaker 5: whether it's a tropical storm or hurricane, is unique. It's
- 6:38Speaker 5: all based on how the wind patterns and the steering
- 6:42Speaker 5: currents are basically set up in the atmosphere. This one
- 6:46Speaker 5: is set up for a storm to keep moving north.
- 6:50Speaker 5: And as it gets into the northern latitudes and the westerlies,
- 6:53Speaker 5: it will continue to pick up forward speed as the
- 6:56Speaker 5: actual wind speed from the system winds down. So we're
- 6:59Speaker 5: not anticipating a slow-moving storm that's hanging around. If anything,
- 7:02Speaker 5: it'll speed up. And as we had said, there will
- 7:05Speaker 5: be impacts in Alabama, but those impacts will be before kickoff,
- 7:09Speaker 5: at least the worst of them. And most of it
- 7:11Speaker 5: should move north and then northeast as we head toward
- 7:13Speaker 5: 630 kickoff time for that game.
- 7:16Speaker 7: All right.
- 7:17Speaker 3: Ray Stajic, we'll catch up with you later today for
- 7:20Speaker 3: a quickie update in case you want to do a
- 7:22Speaker 3: pivoting shift and change your mind on it.
- 7:25Speaker 1: There you go. Like you always do, right? No problem.
- 7:30Speaker 1: It's possible.
- 7:31Speaker 4: I thought the biggest thing he said was that the
- 7:33Speaker 4: tailgating was canceled.
- 7:35Speaker 1: That's a big deal in Alabama.
- 7:36Speaker 8: It is.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Thank you. Tailgating and the walk.
- 7:41Speaker 5: They do their entrance and all that. All that's canceled.
- 7:45Speaker 5: They moved game day inside, so Oh, OK.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Yep.
- 7:49Speaker 3: So anyway, Natalie, you brought to our attention, along with Larry,
- 7:53Speaker 3: big story affecting moms and kids in sports in New Jersey.
- 7:59Speaker 1: What's going on?
- 8:01Speaker 4: Well, in Wayne, New Jersey, there is a youth ice
- 8:06Speaker 4: hockey league called I love this name. The Hitmen, Jersey Hitmen.
- 8:11Speaker 1: What is that, right out of The Sopranos? You can't
- 8:13Speaker 1: make it up. It's so Jersey.
- 8:15Speaker 4: Anyway, so apparently they have a rule that, you know,
- 8:19Speaker 4: if they want to have any merchandise made, you know,
- 8:22Speaker 4: because every team wants to have merchandise, it has to
- 8:26Speaker 4: go through the club. Well, apparently some moms decided to
- 8:29Speaker 4: make their own team jackets, and the owner didn't like
- 8:32Speaker 4: it so much.
- 8:34Speaker 1: What do you mean the owner didn't like it so much?
- 8:36Speaker 1: I mean, come on. This is a youth league. This
- 8:38Speaker 1: is moms.
- 8:39Speaker 3: You were involved in a soccer league where you and
- 8:42Speaker 3: the moms were out there, you know, dealing with the
- 8:44Speaker 3: kids who are on the soccer pitch.
- 8:47Speaker 1: So, I mean, I don't understand this. Yeah, I don't
- 8:51Speaker 1: get it either.
- 8:51Speaker 4: He put out an email to the team basically threatening
- 8:56Speaker 4: to suspend the players.
- 8:58Speaker 9: You 10.
- 8:59Speaker 4: We're talking 9 and 10-year-olds.
- 9:00Speaker 1: What?
- 9:01Speaker 4: Suspend them and... that they were going to have to
- 9:05Speaker 4: pay 15% royalty fees or something because it is copyrighted.
- 9:09Speaker 1: Oh, he did copyright it. Then he does have the
- 9:11Speaker 1: right to do this. No, he does have the right.
- 9:12Speaker 4: He absolutely has the right. And then he basically said,
- 9:16Speaker 4: I was really never going to suspend them.
- 9:18Speaker 6: But, and I do understand.
- 9:20Speaker 1: This, that because.
- 9:22Speaker 4: You know, Larry, because you have kids that have children
- 9:25Speaker 4: right now in youth club sports.
- 9:27Speaker 9: These parents are crazy.
- 9:29Speaker 4: And if you don't basically threaten suspension or something, their
- 9:33Speaker 4: kids are going to get hurt at the end.
- 9:36Speaker 6: They're going to ignore you.
- 9:37Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is a lot different. I mean, those
- 9:40Speaker 1: crazy parents are the ones that are going up in
- 9:42Speaker 1: the coaches' faces all the time saying, my son's not
- 9:45Speaker 1: playing enough and he's better than this person or this person. This,
- 9:49Speaker 1: it sounds like he's in the right. He's allowed. If
- 9:51Speaker 1: he copyrighted this, he's absolutely in the in the right
- 9:56Speaker 1: i'm not even sure why it made it to a
- 9:57Speaker 1: story except for some of the parents must be really
- 9:59Speaker 1: upset about it but uh No, that was brilliant on
- 10:02Speaker 1: his part. Now I take this side of the parents
- 10:04Speaker 1: on this. Come on, man. This is bad PR for him.
- 10:08Speaker 1: He doesn't look good. It's not bad PR for the parents.
- 10:10Speaker 1: I'm telling you, in most of these cases, I will
- 10:13Speaker 1: find out. And I was one of the bad parents.
- 10:15Speaker 1: So believe me, I'm turning myself in. Let's open up
- 10:18Speaker 1: this Pandora's box. Tell us a little bit. We don't
- 10:20Speaker 1: have time. Trust me, I've talked about it before. I've
- 10:24Speaker 1: talked about it before. But in this case, he put out,
- 10:29Speaker 1: he said to people, don't do this. And they did
- 10:32Speaker 1: it anyway. And he has a copyright. So legally, I
- 10:37Speaker 1: don't know if PR is good, but legally. He is
- 10:40Speaker 1: absolutely right.
- 10:41Speaker 3: I am suggesting now in retaliation that all of those
- 10:44Speaker 3: knockoff illegal aliens on Canal Street now have rows and rows.
- 10:51Speaker 10: Of these.
- 10:52Speaker 1: And they'll sell, too.
- 10:54Speaker 6: It's a great name.
- 10:55Speaker 3: I mean, get retaliate on this guy.
- 10:57Speaker 4: But he basically he's saying, if I don't if I'm
- 11:00Speaker 4: not this strong that I have to threaten that their
- 11:03Speaker 4: kids are not going to play.
- 11:04Speaker 1: The parents won't listen to me. I don't think Curtis
- 11:08Speaker 1: has ever been in the world that we've been in
- 11:10Speaker 1: with the crazy parents. And so it's really difficult to
- 11:13Speaker 1: get mad at the coaches who are taking incoming all
- 11:17Speaker 1: day long from these crazy parents that say little Bobby
- 11:21Speaker 1: is much better than Jim Joe. Jim Joe? Where did
- 11:26Speaker 1: you get that name from, Larry? Just came out. Hey, listen,
- 11:30Speaker 1: we'd like to hear from you. Go to the iHeartRadio
- 11:32Speaker 1: app and leave us a talkback. You could win a
- 11:34Speaker 1: Curtis Sliwa and Larry Menti in the morning t-shirt, which
- 11:37Speaker 1: is going to be awarded every day to our favorite
- 11:39Speaker 1: talkback in the morning. And while you're on the free
- 11:41Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app, be sure to set a preset for 710WOR.
- 11:45Speaker 1: And don't forget, the best talkback of the week takes
- 11:49Speaker 1: home a C-Crane radio. Well, this is really interesting. Apparently,
- 11:55Speaker 1: Curtis hates Ella Langley so much... He went to a
- 12:00Speaker 1: pro to do research on her to show that she
- 12:04Speaker 1: doesn't deserve the accolade she's getting and the record she
- 12:09Speaker 1: set with Billboard. He can explain when we come back. Plus,
- 12:13Speaker 1: a chance to see live on stage a Bronx tale,
- 12:17Speaker 1: the one-man show starring Chaz Palminteri at age 25. Here's iHeartRadio. So,
- 12:24Speaker 1: I have this obsession.
- 12:26Speaker 3: And you know me, Larry and Natalie, and our audience,
- 12:28Speaker 3: when I'm obsessed with something, I do a follow-up. Although
- 12:32Speaker 3: I must admit that I have little, if any, knowledge
- 12:35Speaker 3: about how they do rankings of songs, you know, from
- 12:39Speaker 3: the Billboard charts. But ever since Larry came in here
- 12:43Speaker 3: crowing like a rooster in the morning about Ella Langley,
- 12:48Speaker 3: somebody I had never even heard her name, about this song,
- 12:52Speaker 3: Choose in Texas, which was rated number one, what, 25
- 12:55Speaker 3: weeks in a row? I went to the professor here,
- 12:59Speaker 3: who's Tom Cuddy, our program director, who spent years in FM,
- 13:03Speaker 3: Top 40 radio, radio play. He knows the ins and outs.
- 13:07Speaker 3: And I said, you know something? I doubt this. And
- 13:10Speaker 3: he did a deep dive. And you may want to
- 13:13Speaker 3: laugh at me, but could you play that song for us?
- 13:15Speaker 3: Because I don't think... And I remember when the sister
- 13:18Speaker 3: station of us at WABC, when I was there, was Nash.
- 13:21Speaker 3: So I would hear a lot of the country say...
- 13:23Speaker 3: This sounds like almost every second song that was played
- 13:25Speaker 3: on NASH.
- 13:26Speaker 1: I don't think so. But it's a crossover now. It's
- 13:28Speaker 1: not just a country song. It's now a pop song.
- 13:31Speaker 2: Right.
- 13:31Speaker 1: And it's based the.
- 13:32Speaker 3: Ratings on streaming, sales, and play on radio stations like
- 13:38Speaker 3: Z100 and such.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Okay.
- 13:40Speaker 3: So Tom did a deep dive and he extrapolated the following.
- 13:44Speaker 1: He said, based on all information.
- 13:48Speaker 3: He estimated that it had accumulated enough chart points to
- 13:52Speaker 3: rank approximately 25 to 35 all-time, not number one, as
- 13:56Speaker 3: you extolled.
- 13:57Speaker 1: I didn't say it was all-time. All-time's a different list.
- 14:00Speaker 1: That's completely different than what we were talking about. But
- 14:03Speaker 1: that's okay. Keep going. Recuse yourself then. No, I don't
- 14:06Speaker 1: have to.
- 14:06Speaker 3: First song of all time, Blinding Lights, which my wife
- 14:11Speaker 3: Nancy loves by The Weeknd. Twist and Shout by Chubby Checker.
- 14:15Speaker 3: And it goes on and on and on. And he
- 14:17Speaker 3: lists all these other songs. Yeah. that obviously had more play,
- 14:21Speaker 3: more stay, more sales, everything that would attribute to their
- 14:25Speaker 3: top rating. So I want you to apologize to our.
- 14:28Speaker 1: Audience, Larry. It's like saying Gone with the Wind is
- 14:32Speaker 1: the top selling movie of all time because more people
- 14:35Speaker 1: bought tickets. You have to go by current time. I'll
- 14:38Speaker 1: tell you, I'm not going to argue with Tom Cuddy.
- 14:40Speaker 1: I mean, that's a well thought out list that he
- 14:43Speaker 1: put together. I looked at it. But, you know, it
- 14:47Speaker 1: was number one. For 24 weeks. That is number one. Now,
- 14:52Speaker 1: number one, buy the songs that are currently out. You
- 14:55Speaker 1: took past songs. It's a completely different list. So you're
- 14:58Speaker 1: arguing oranges and apples at this point.
- 15:00Speaker 3: Well, we're sending our own Natalie Magliore into the streets
- 15:04Speaker 3: today to see if anybody even knows who this woman
- 15:06Speaker 3: Ella Langley is.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Well, they may not because she's a country star, but
- 15:10Speaker 1: we'll see. They may. But can I just tell you
- 15:12Speaker 1: one thing? I looked at the Billboard Top 100. So
- 15:15Speaker 1: it was replaced by Patient Zero, right, by Taylor Swift.
- 15:18Speaker 1: You hate her, too. You hate Ella Langley. You hate
- 15:21Speaker 1: Taylor Swift. Two lovely young women, but you hate them.
- 15:24Speaker 1: Number three, Taylor Swift, Cleveland. Number four, Babylon by Taylor Swift.
- 15:30Speaker 1: Number five, Pink Clouding by Taylor Swift. So basically, everything
- 15:36Speaker 1: on that short LP she put out is in the
- 15:39Speaker 1: top five.
- 15:40Speaker 3: I thought there's no more payola. You don't pay people
- 15:42Speaker 3: to boost your ratings.
- 15:44Speaker 1: She doesn't need to do that. But she does have
- 15:47Speaker 1: the resources. Let's get some talkbacks.
- 15:49Speaker 3: Since I can't ask Donald Trump to rename the hurricane
- 15:52Speaker 3: presently in the Gulf, I asked ChatGBT, and it came
- 15:57Speaker 3: up with Hurricane Ice.
- 15:58Speaker 1: So that's what I'm calling it. That's a good one.
- 16:04Speaker 1: That's wonderful.
- 16:06Speaker 9: Hey, guys, it's like an acai bowl that you get.
- 16:08Speaker 6: Over at the mall.
- 16:10Speaker 1: I love an acai bowl.
- 16:12Speaker 8: All right.
- 16:12Speaker 9: I like that.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Whoa, whoa. I didn't quite get that. Acai bowl. She's
- 16:16Speaker 1: saying it's like the hurricane.
- 16:17Speaker 4: Yeah. Instead of whatever it's called.
- 16:19Speaker 1: God. We're going to call it acai now. It's so confusing.
- 16:22Speaker 1: It is.
- 16:23Speaker 2: One more.
- 16:23Speaker 1: You guys are talking about a storm's name, but the
- 16:26Speaker 1: biggest thing going on this weekend, it's the start of
- 16:29Speaker 1: Columbus Day weekend. And I want to know, Curtis, are
- 16:33Speaker 1: you going to be at the parade tomorrow on 18th Avenue?
- 16:37Speaker 1: We're looking forward to seeing you.
- 16:39Speaker 2: And bring Larry and Natalie.
- 16:41Speaker 1: With you so we know what they look like when
- 16:42Speaker 1: we're listening.
- 16:43Speaker 2: To them in the morning.
- 16:45Speaker 3: I normally would, but I had a trade. My wife,
- 16:47Speaker 3: they have the annual parade, doggy parade, Halloween parade in
- 16:51Speaker 3: Tompkins Square Park tomorrow. Morris Park on Sunday, I'll be there.
- 16:54Speaker 3: And Monday, the big Columbus State parade on Fifth Avenue,
- 16:58Speaker 3: I'll be there. So I had to give up one
- 16:59Speaker 3: of the Columbus States. Maybe I'll be there. Try to
- 17:01Speaker 3: find me.
- 17:03Speaker 1: Now let's get the news at 630 with Daria.
- 17:07Speaker 9: I keep waiting for my name to come up on
- 17:09Speaker 9: the hurricane list.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Oh, Daria.
- 17:11Speaker 9: You call it Gloria, though.
- 17:13Speaker 1: Well, Gloria was a famous one. Daria, I've got to
- 17:19Speaker 1: search for.
- 17:19Speaker 9: I keep waiting for it. I did that, too, when
- 17:21Speaker 9: I was a kid.
- 17:22Speaker 1: I'd always look at the list and think, is my
- 17:23Speaker 1: name on.
- 17:24Speaker 6: It this year?
- 17:25Speaker 9: I think I was a typhoon years ago, but not
- 17:27Speaker 9: in the Atlantic. I'm waiting still. Sunny and a little
- 17:30Speaker 9: cooler today and a high of 71 degrees. An angry
- 17:34Speaker 9: Mayor Mamdani wants ice out of New York City after
- 17:37Speaker 9: agents shot and wounded a man in the Bronx yesterday.
- 17:39Speaker 1: Let me say this plainly. What happened today... was an outrage.
- 17:45Speaker 9: DHS says the man is an undocumented immigrant from the
- 17:48Speaker 9: Dominican Republic and they say he is a violent criminal.
- 17:51Speaker 9: He was in a car with a five-year-old boy when
- 17:53Speaker 9: he was shot. The feds say he was using that
- 17:55Speaker 9: car to ram agents. The Pentagon says the December 3rd
- 17:59Speaker 9: execution of former Army Major Nadel Hassan will be live-streamed.
- 18:03Speaker 9: Hassan was sentenced to death for a deadly 2009 shooting
- 18:06Speaker 9: in Fort Hood, Texas. The city is helping bodega owners
- 18:10Speaker 9: improve safety at their stores.
- 18:12Speaker 11: Speaker Julie Mennon announced $ 200, 000 in funding to help shops
- 18:16Speaker 11: install panic buttons and other safety measures.
- 18:19Speaker 12: Protecting public safety and strengthening economic vibrancy really go hand
- 18:24Speaker 12: in hand, and we are so excited to make progress
- 18:27Speaker 12: on both of these priorities.
- 18:29Speaker 11: Eligible businesses include ground floor retail establishments with 50 or
- 18:33Speaker 11: less workers. The funding will be split evenly and go
- 18:36Speaker 11: directly to each borough's Chamber of Commerce. The chambers are
- 18:40Speaker 11: then responsible for selecting the businesses and reporting on the
- 18:43Speaker 11: program's progress to the council's finance division. I'm Lizzie Radabali,
- 18:47Speaker 11: WOR News.
- 18:48Speaker 9: Forecasters now say Hurricane Isaias will make landfall sometime late
- 18:53Speaker 9: tonight or early tomorrow along the Alabama-Florida border. The storm,
- 18:57Speaker 9: which is now Category 2 strength, is the first Atlantic
- 19:00Speaker 9: hurricane of the season and what will be left of it.
- 19:02Speaker 9: is expected to bring heavy rain to our area early
- 19:05Speaker 9: next week. And President Trump really wants us to use
- 19:08Speaker 9: the term superintelligence. He posted on Truth Social, those who
- 19:12Speaker 9: are still calling it artificial intelligence are the enemy. Islanders
- 19:16Speaker 9: beat Chicago. Liberty hosts Atlanta tonight in a must-win Game
- 19:19Speaker 9: 3 of their WNBA semifinal series. Next news, 7 o'clock,
- 19:23Speaker 9: bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
- 19:26Speaker 1: Hey, Daria, I have good news for you, by the way.
- 19:29Speaker 1: There was a cyclone, Daria.
- 19:31Speaker 9: Yes, the typhoon. It was, what, in the early 90s,
- 19:34Speaker 9: I think?
- 19:35Speaker 1: Yeah, 1990. It is the strongest windstorm on record, and
- 19:39Speaker 1: it caused many fatalities. But you know what? Daria, a windstorm,
- 19:44Speaker 1: it's really appropriate for somebody that does the news, isn't it?
- 19:47Speaker 1: Does the news rightful. But they have no response. for
- 19:50Speaker 1: daria because now they call it the burns day storm
- 19:53Speaker 1: so you lost on that one.
- 19:54Speaker 9: Because they were calling it daria and daria and people
- 19:56Speaker 9: were trying to figure it out that's why.
- 19:58Speaker 3: Oh, up next, if you had nothing to do this weekend,
- 20:01Speaker 3: you got to watch this debate last night in Michigan.
- 20:04Speaker 3: I mean, it was punch for punch. El Saeed versus
- 20:08Speaker 3: Mike Rogers. Even when they went to commercial, they didn't stop.
- 20:12Speaker 3: So it's like the bell rings. You know, that's it.
- 20:14Speaker 1: Stop, stop. No, they kept going. It's so good. We'll
- 20:17Speaker 1: break it down for you up next.
- 20:19Speaker 3: So Larry and Natalie and our audience, I was scrolling
- 20:23Speaker 3: late last night. And I thought I was watching the
- 20:27Speaker 3: political recreation of Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier in the ring.
- 20:33Speaker 3: If you didn't watch this debate, and I'm sure most
- 20:36Speaker 3: of you haven't, maybe you got little snippets, in Michigan.
- 20:40Speaker 3: El Saeed versus Mike Rogers. I couldn't stop watching. And
- 20:46Speaker 3: by the way, I want to applaud the moderators. They
- 20:49Speaker 3: hit every subject, including flock cameras, artificial intelligence, data centers.
- 20:55Speaker 3: The only thing they didn't put in was transgenders playing
- 20:58Speaker 3: female sports. Mike Rogers is just going to have to
- 21:01Speaker 3: bull his way in. He was relentless, Mike Rogers. El
- 21:05Speaker 3: Saeed is a lot like Zoran Mondami, smooth, you know.
- 21:08Speaker 3: He was ducking, he was juking, he was jiving. But
- 21:12Speaker 3: at the end of this debate, you said, the final debate,
- 21:14Speaker 3: there's one more, and late October in Detroit, the polls
- 21:19Speaker 3: are neck and neck there. Man, it's a must-watch for
- 21:22Speaker 3: the nation, because this is really what you want from
- 21:25Speaker 3: a debate.
- 21:25Speaker 1: Yeah, and the entire thing's on YouTube, so people can
- 21:28Speaker 1: go and watch it for themselves. Here are some of
- 21:31Speaker 1: the moments from it. As Curtis just said a moment ago,
- 21:35Speaker 1: there are so many moments, we could spend the entire
- 21:38Speaker 1: show playing this, but let's focus on these three.
- 21:42Speaker 13: What my friend here just wants to do, as he's
- 21:45Speaker 13: kind of like a glitchy AI chat bot, is say
- 21:48Speaker 13: the same thing over and over and over again.
- 21:50Speaker 1: But let me tell you this.
- 21:52Speaker 13: He has taken money from groups associated and support the
- 21:55Speaker 13: Muslim Brotherhood. He has taken money from individuals on his
- 21:59Speaker 13: campaign who openly support Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda.
- 22:05Speaker 1: And then they, on the same topic, they got to
- 22:09Speaker 1: Al-Sayed's mother.
- 22:11Speaker 14: I'm going to ask you again tonight, who do you
- 22:12Speaker 14: think's a bigger... No, no, well, let's do this. Let's
- 22:16Speaker 14: open up this can of worms. I'll tell you what
- 22:20Speaker 14: my mother did. She was a small... You going after
- 22:23Speaker 14: my mom? I'm not going after your mom.
- 22:25Speaker 13: What your mom was working at, I was going after
- 22:27Speaker 13: that organization that was indicted for funneling money to Al-Qaeda. Look,
- 22:31Speaker 13: that's your mom. My mom worked at a local chamber
- 22:34Speaker 13: of commerce. I'll put my mom up any day for that.
- 22:37Speaker 1: Oh, I love that. I love that. It was, you know,
- 22:42Speaker 1: normally you don't talk about one another's mothers.
- 22:44Speaker 3: You know, that's like in a disc tape, you know,
- 22:46Speaker 3: Def Jam comedy, your mother, your mother. Mike Rogers was relentless,
- 22:52Speaker 3: you know, because he's got a hammer rake. This guy is, like,
- 22:55Speaker 3: associated with supporting terrorism. It goes back to his roots,
- 22:58Speaker 3: his mother, who's from Egypt. I said, man, and El-Said, smooth,
- 23:03Speaker 3: you know.
- 23:03Speaker 15: What?
- 23:03Speaker 1: You're talking about my mother? Except that he got blasted
- 23:07Speaker 1: for that because he said, you're talking about my mother,
- 23:09Speaker 1: which opened up the door. For Rogers, because he said, no,
- 23:13Speaker 1: I wasn't talking about your mother, but I'll talk about
- 23:15Speaker 1: your mother. And then he went into her supporting terrorist organizations. No,
- 23:20Speaker 1: it was from the clips. I didn't get to see
- 23:23Speaker 1: the whole thing. And you did. So you're saying I
- 23:25Speaker 1: need to watch the whole thing. Equally matched.
- 23:28Speaker 3: Equally matched. You know, you don't often see that in debates.
- 23:30Speaker 3: They were primed. They were ready. And they were astute
- 23:34Speaker 3: on all the issues.
- 23:36Speaker 1: Well, I'll watch it. I'll tell you what I believe.
- 23:39Speaker 14: I'm going to ask you again tonight, who do you
- 23:40Speaker 14: think is a bigger threat to the United States, Israel
- 23:43Speaker 14: or Iran?
- 23:43Speaker 1: You have 60 seconds.
- 23:44Speaker 7: And again, Rick, I'm just going to say that that's
- 23:46Speaker 7: a ridiculous hypothetical because here's what's happening right now.
- 23:50Speaker 1: Wait a second. That's a ridiculous hypothetical? That is the
- 23:54Speaker 1: easiest question in the world. Oh, my God. See how smooth?
- 23:59Speaker 1: He's just like Zoran Mandami.
- 24:01Speaker 8: See?
- 24:01Speaker 1: He does the pivot and switch there. Smooth? That was ridiculous.
- 24:07Speaker 1: Why didn't he just jump on him? Why didn't Rogers
- 24:09Speaker 1: just jump in? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's not
- 24:11Speaker 1: a ridiculous question. Answer it.
- 24:13Speaker 14: I'm going to ask you again tonight. Who do you
- 24:15Speaker 14: think is a bigger threat to the United States, Israel
- 24:18Speaker 14: or Iran?
- 24:18Speaker 1: You have 60 seconds.
- 24:19Speaker 7: And again, Rick, I'm just going to say that that's
- 24:21Speaker 7: a ridiculous hypothetical because.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Here's what's happening right now.
- 24:24Speaker 7: Our ostensible ally in Israel has lobbied us to go
- 24:29Speaker 7: to war with Iran. We have watched as Iran has
- 24:33Speaker 7: responded by bombing all kinds of countries in the Middle
- 24:36Speaker 7: East and then choking off the world's energy supply. So
- 24:41Speaker 7: this is a situation in which I don't think we
- 24:43Speaker 7: should be apart. I don't want to be pushed into
- 24:45Speaker 7: war by Israel.
- 24:47Speaker 3: Oh, you see, he made his point to his crowd.
- 24:50Speaker 3: But he didn't totally exempt Iran because he said they
- 24:54Speaker 3: were bombing people throughout the Middle East.
- 24:56Speaker 1: But again, he's smooth. You understand?
- 24:58Speaker 3: And that's why when you watch this whole debate back
- 25:01Speaker 3: and forth, Mike Rogers, relentless. Now, he couldn't interfere with
- 25:05Speaker 3: him every minute. So you'll see, Larry, when you watch
- 25:08Speaker 3: it from beginning to end, you wouldn't have been able
- 25:09Speaker 3: to understand what they were saying. But if you're going
- 25:12Speaker 3: to say to a debating class, I want you to
- 25:15Speaker 3: see a great debate. They should play this in classes
- 25:20Speaker 3: in terms of how you deal adversarially pro, how you
- 25:24Speaker 3: promote your ideas, and then how you go at the
- 25:27Speaker 3: other guy. That's why I'm looking forward to the end
- 25:30Speaker 3: of October. I think it's October 29th in Detroit.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Could be Cobalt Hall there. Oh, this is going to
- 25:36Speaker 1: be great. What's weird is that you admire that answer.
- 25:39Speaker 1: And you admire, maybe not in context, but in content,
- 25:44Speaker 1: I should say, But in the deafness of being able
- 25:48Speaker 1: to handle that question, I thought it was horrible. I
- 25:51Speaker 1: thought it was absolutely horrible. I listened to that, and
- 25:54Speaker 1: I think there's no equivalence between the two. And how
- 25:57Speaker 1: could you even say it in a sentence that there
- 26:00Speaker 1: was some equivalence? Of course, of course.
- 26:01Speaker 3: But also you'll see Rogers put in that same situation
- 26:05Speaker 3: with Trump over and over, because obviously Trump, His ratings
- 26:09Speaker 3: are not good, so it hurts. And you'll watch him
- 26:12Speaker 3: as he smoothly operates through being attached like an appendage
- 26:16Speaker 3: to Trump.
- 26:16Speaker 1: I think that's completely different talking about Trump and then
- 26:19Speaker 1: talking about Iran. But listen, we have way different points
- 26:24Speaker 1: of view. I understand that. But, you know, and you're right.
- 26:27Speaker 1: I'm just listening to clips. I'm listening to the whole thing.
- 26:30Speaker 1: I get it. Methodology. I've been in seven debates.
- 26:33Speaker 2: That's fair.
- 26:34Speaker 3: And I know when you start out doing debates, you're
- 26:36Speaker 3: not as good as you are in the end when
- 26:38Speaker 3: you're doing debates.
- 26:39Speaker 1: And these two guys were evenly matched. That's why I
- 26:42Speaker 1: so loved it. Yeah, I was hearing that this was
- 26:45Speaker 1: a this that El Sayed, at least a lot of
- 26:48Speaker 1: the stuff that I've read about it. And again, I
- 26:50Speaker 1: didn't see it. A lot of the stuff I read
- 26:51Speaker 1: about it said that he slipped up several times, that
- 26:54Speaker 1: he finally showed some weak spots. But you're walking away
- 26:57Speaker 1: from it saying, no, he didn't. And so I don't know.
- 27:00Speaker 1: I don't know what to believe. So, yes, I'm going
- 27:02Speaker 1: to have to watch it myself.
- 27:03Speaker 10: Good.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Stream it. Yeah, I will. I definitely will. Oh, God,
- 27:06Speaker 1: another rabbit hole. I'm going to go down. I do
- 27:09Speaker 1: this all the time, and I end up spending hours
- 27:12Speaker 1: now on this debate. It sounds like it's worth it.
- 27:15Speaker 1: Trust me on this.
- 27:16Speaker 3: When you watch this debate, you'll want to watch debate
- 27:19Speaker 3: number two. Because whatever they miss the first time, they're
- 27:22Speaker 3: going to get it on in Detroit the second time.
- 27:24Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Well, I grant you everything because you watched it and
- 27:27Speaker 1: I only heard clips. But let's get to Krista Pike. Yep,
- 27:32Speaker 1: she's still alive. She's talking and her attorney says she's mad.
- 27:37Speaker 1: We'll get the latest on the woman that survived two
- 27:42Speaker 1: lethal injections next. Tell you what, Curtis, the Krista Pike
- 27:46Speaker 1: story is so fascinating for several reasons. And it's going
- 27:51Speaker 1: to be one of those stories that's going to resonate
- 27:54Speaker 1: throughout history because it's going to have major impact on
- 27:58Speaker 1: future capital punishment cases. Krista Pike, of course, is the
- 28:03Speaker 1: woman that was found guilty of torturing and murdering another woman.
- 28:07Speaker 1: And 30 years later, she was sentenced 23 years ago.
- 28:16Speaker 1: seven years after the murder, and now 23 years after that,
- 28:20Speaker 1: and 30 years after the murder, she goes to be executed.
- 28:25Speaker 1: She's in the room. She's on the gurney. She gets
- 28:28Speaker 1: the first shot of a lethal injection, doesn't die, takes
- 28:32Speaker 1: the second shot of a lethal injection, starts snoring. They panic.
- 28:39Speaker 1: They close the curtains. They get her to the hospital.
- 28:42Speaker 1: And now she's talking. And apparently, according to her attorney,
- 28:47Speaker 1: she didn't know what happened. She didn't know where she was.
- 28:52Speaker 1: And apparently, she wanted to know how her family is.
- 28:56Speaker 1: And she was described as being angry and confused about everything. Now,
- 29:03Speaker 1: this case is, she's not going to be put to
- 29:06Speaker 1: death right away. It's going to go and they're going
- 29:08Speaker 1: to try to get her sentence commuted. to make it
- 29:12Speaker 1: just life in prison, that's probably going to fail. So
- 29:15Speaker 1: it's going to go to the courts. And my feeling is,
- 29:17Speaker 1: because there's a constitutional issue here, it's going to end
- 29:20Speaker 1: up in the Supreme Court. And we told you about
- 29:23Speaker 1: this yesterday, but they are reiterating it again in a
- 29:27Speaker 1: news conference that they claim that the doctors said she
- 29:31Speaker 1: was brain dead for a while and then came to.
- 29:36Speaker 1: And it is against the law across the country that
- 29:39Speaker 1: you can't put somebody to death twice. If they survive,
- 29:43Speaker 1: you can't put them to death again. And so this
- 29:47Speaker 1: is going to go to the courts. It's a little mucky.
- 29:49Speaker 1: Whenever you hear from some of the attorneys talking about it,
- 29:53Speaker 1: it's not a slam dunk. So it's going to be
- 29:55Speaker 1: a court case case.
- 29:58Speaker 3: Larry, her defense attorneys have now claimed that she tried
- 30:02Speaker 3: to help the executioners find a vein that they could
- 30:06Speaker 3: use for the lethal injection.
- 30:07Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Well, you know what? There's witnesses. for
- 30:12Speaker 1: one thing, and she can't use her arms unless she
- 30:15Speaker 1: did it beforehand.
- 30:16Speaker 10: Yes.
- 30:16Speaker 1: Unless she was talking to them and said, you know,
- 30:18Speaker 1: it's right here, hit it right here. They swabbed it
- 30:20Speaker 1: with alcohol, which I never understand. Whoever they did lethal,
- 30:24Speaker 1: they swab it with alcohol. So that had to happen
- 30:27Speaker 1: beforehand because people would have heard it. There's people there.
- 30:30Speaker 1: There's a microphone. Everything is recorded. It's important that there
- 30:34Speaker 1: are witnesses. So I don't think anybody else is reporting that.
- 30:37Speaker 1: That's funny. You're going to hear a lot of stuff now.
- 30:40Speaker 1: This is a case that's going to exist now for
- 30:44Speaker 1: months and months and months. And then we have another execution.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Coming up.
- 30:51Speaker 3: This is– the firing squad for the terrorists at Fort Hood,
- 30:55Speaker 3: who was the psychiatrist who was responsible for the death
- 30:59Speaker 3: of over a dozen servicemen, servicewomen, like 36 injured. Because remember,
- 31:03Speaker 3: they don't carry weapons on the base, Fort Hood, the
- 31:05Speaker 3: biggest base in America. And Pete Hegseth has said, not
- 31:09Speaker 3: only are we going to have an execution by firing squad,
- 31:11Speaker 3: we're going to stream it so the whole world can
- 31:15Speaker 3: see it.
- 31:15Speaker 1: He wants it to be very public. This will be
- 31:17Speaker 1: since World War II. This is the first military execution
- 31:20Speaker 1: of one of its own So here is the Secretary
- 31:23Speaker 1: of War talking about it. No-brainer.
- 31:27Speaker 16: Execution by firing squad. Army major betrays his country. Radical
- 31:31Speaker 16: Islamist kills a bunch of Americans at Fort Hood. Of
- 31:34Speaker 16: course we're going to do it at Fort Hood. We're
- 31:35Speaker 16: going to do it on a Thursday. We're going to
- 31:36Speaker 16: do it at 1 o'clock, which is when he did it.
- 31:38Speaker 16: And it's going to be soldiers with rifles executing the
- 31:41Speaker 16: firing squad. It hadn't been since World War II since
- 31:44Speaker 16: we've done that.
- 31:45Speaker 1: And as Curtis said, live streamed. It was a radical.
- 31:47Speaker 16: Islamist attack in uniform inside the ranks. And so he's
- 31:50Speaker 16: going to get a firing squad of soldiers, as it
- 31:53Speaker 16: should be. And we'll make sure that people are able
- 31:55Speaker 16: to watch it, that it's public, because people need to
- 31:58Speaker 16: understand that there's serious consequences.
- 32:01Speaker 1: For these types of things. So there's going to be
- 32:03Speaker 1: a lot of witnesses to this one. All over the world.
- 32:08Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm going to be able to
- 32:09Speaker 1: watch it. I've turned down being able to watch executions before,
- 32:13Speaker 1: famously John Wayne Gacy. And I'm not sure if I'm
- 32:17Speaker 1: going to watch somebody getting shot and died.
- 32:18Speaker 3: You know, when we were younger, there was this tape
- 32:21Speaker 3: that was available, Faces of Death. And then there was
- 32:24Speaker 3: part two, Faces of Death. Everybody had to see it
- 32:26Speaker 3: all different ways that people were killed and animals. This
- 32:30Speaker 3: would have made one of the top hits of Faces
- 32:33Speaker 3: of Death. A firing squad, total execution, you know, with
- 32:37Speaker 3: all the rituals that the military uses. But it's going
- 32:41Speaker 3: to go global. And in some parts, he'll be considered, yep,
- 32:44Speaker 3: he's our martyr. He got on the Paradise Express and
- 32:47Speaker 3: zoomed himself right on up.
- 32:48Speaker 1: To Allah's side. Oh, you're absolutely right. That's what's going
- 32:53Speaker 1: to happen. He will be a martyr to some. When
- 32:57Speaker 1: we come back, well, it is the biggest story locally
- 33:00Speaker 1: by far. The ICE shootings across the country. Well, now
- 33:05Speaker 1: we have one in New York. And remember what happened
- 33:09Speaker 1: everywhere else in Minneapolis and Maine. They're all coming. We'll
- 33:13Speaker 1: talk about it after the 7 o'clock news. Well, the
- 33:16Speaker 1: protests that have afflicted Minneapolis, the protests that have afflicted Maine,
- 33:21Speaker 1: guess where they're coming now? We want Justice Tuesday House!
- 33:28Speaker 10: I know!
- 33:29Speaker 1: In the neighborhood at the hospital where the victim was taken,
- 33:33Speaker 1: there were massive protests. They attacked police cars. And that's
- 33:37Speaker 1: not going to go away as long as this case
- 33:40Speaker 1: is in the news. It's going to be days and
- 33:42Speaker 1: days and days. And trust me, those protests are going
- 33:46Speaker 1: to keep growing. And this is all because a man
- 33:49Speaker 1: was shot by ICE at 4 p.m. yesterday on West
- 33:54Speaker 1: 225th Street. And Marble Hill Avenue in the Marble Hill
- 33:59Speaker 1: section of the city. So Ice wanted him. He was
- 34:05Speaker 1: on their list. He was a bad, bad man. And
- 34:09Speaker 1: they were undercover, which you're going to hear from a
- 34:12Speaker 1: lot of people was horrible that they were undercover. Apparently
- 34:15Speaker 1: they should have sirens on their heads. as they go
- 34:18Speaker 1: up and approach these people, and they were wearing masks,
- 34:22Speaker 1: and they approached the car. NYPD was there too, although
- 34:26Speaker 1: they weren't involved in the apprehension. Now, he had a
- 34:30Speaker 1: little boy in the back seat also at the time.
- 34:35Speaker 1: He is a Dominican Republic citizen in this country illegally.
- 34:45Speaker 1: The DHS has alleged the man was associated with a
- 34:49Speaker 1: Trinitorious gang and may have been involved in the brutal
- 34:54Speaker 1: killing of a CBP officer last year. And that's why
- 34:59Speaker 1: they approached with guns. You see, a lot of people
- 35:01Speaker 1: think they shouldn't approach with guns when they're approaching a
- 35:05Speaker 1: potential violent criminal who has beaten people in the past.
- 35:10Speaker 1: But no, they approached with guns drawn. And reportedly, and
- 35:16Speaker 1: we're going to find out because there's a lot of video,
- 35:18Speaker 1: street video, body cam video. There's a lot of video
- 35:21Speaker 1: of this. Reportedly, he tried to drive off. And that's
- 35:26Speaker 1: when they fired Jessica Tisch. The police commissioner says seven shots,
- 35:32Speaker 1: one of them hitting the driver in the neck, none
- 35:35Speaker 1: of them hitting the little boy who was in the
- 35:37Speaker 1: backseat and five years old. The injuries, he's still in
- 35:41Speaker 1: the hospital right now. The injuries are said to be
- 35:44Speaker 1: non-life threatening. So he is, it sounds like he's going
- 35:48Speaker 1: to live and it sounds like he's going to be deported.
- 35:51Speaker 1: But what we have now, of course, is chaos in
- 35:55Speaker 1: the city. Another ice shooting in the middle of a midterm.
- 35:58Speaker 1: Oh my God, if he can throw even more logs
- 36:01Speaker 1: onto that fire, it's going to be a big deal
- 36:05Speaker 1: for a long time. But I have, would love to
- 36:10Speaker 1: know how you can say this wasn't warranted. And what
- 36:17Speaker 1: kills me and what annoys me and what makes me
- 36:21Speaker 1: angry is that the very same people that are going
- 36:25Speaker 1: to attack what happened are the same people that created
- 36:30Speaker 1: the atmosphere for this to happen. So you leave the
- 36:35Speaker 1: borders wide open at minimum 11 million people came over unvetted.
- 36:42Speaker 1: It turns out many of them, not all of them,
- 36:45Speaker 1: but a pretty large percentage, let's say 10% were criminals
- 36:53Speaker 1: and wreaked havoc on this country to the point where
- 36:55Speaker 1: we had record crime in almost all of our major cities.
- 37:00Speaker 1: And then not only did they let them in, but
- 37:02Speaker 1: they create sanctuary cities so they can exist and and
- 37:07Speaker 1: not be bothered by ICE or the police. Then they
- 37:10Speaker 1: set up cashless bail and other soft on crime policies
- 37:16Speaker 1: so that they can commit crimes time and time again
- 37:19Speaker 1: and be let out on the streets. So then when
- 37:23Speaker 1: ICE tries to round up those people, the people that
- 37:27Speaker 1: are the worst of the worst especially, they're the first
- 37:31Speaker 1: ones to cry about it. They created this situation. They're culpable.
- 37:36Speaker 1: They are guilty. Let me tell you what this angel
- 37:41Speaker 1: that is in the hospital right now has done. He
- 37:44Speaker 1: has convictions for grand larceny, multiple prior arrests for assault, robbery,
- 37:50Speaker 1: possession of drugs, and weapons possession. And again, he is
- 37:54Speaker 1: suspected in the brutal killing of a CBP officer last year.
- 38:02Speaker 1: So go ahead and protest over him being shot by
- 38:06Speaker 1: an ICE officer. Oh, I left out one thing, one
- 38:09Speaker 1: really important thing in that whole list of the people
- 38:13Speaker 1: that created this atmosphere, the people that are really responsible
- 38:17Speaker 1: for what happened. They also have it so that the
- 38:25Speaker 1: ICE officers aren't supposed to be wearing masks. Remember that?
- 38:29Speaker 1: Kathy Hochul saying that? Well, they just ignored that. Just
- 38:33Speaker 1: ignored that. So that people would be able to see
- 38:37Speaker 1: their faces and dox them. It is a long, long,
- 38:42Speaker 1: long list of soft on crime policies. And the fact
- 38:47Speaker 1: that it's now a midterm and the Democrats decided that
- 38:50Speaker 1: people like this scum should be treated like angels. All right.
- 38:57Speaker 1: And one last thing, and this is the other thing
- 39:00Speaker 1: I was trying to think of and I couldn't come
- 39:01Speaker 1: up with it right away. If they had arrested this
- 39:06Speaker 1: guy before and handed him over to ICE, none of
- 39:08Speaker 1: that would have happened yesterday. That's the biggest crime. That's
- 39:13Speaker 1: the biggest crime. None of that would have happened yesterday if,
- 39:16Speaker 1: like in other cities, or like Bruce Blakeman did, You
- 39:20Speaker 1: just hand them over after you arrest them or after
- 39:23Speaker 1: they serve their time. And then they're taken away. You
- 39:26Speaker 1: don't have to go out in the streets. There's no shootings.
- 39:28Speaker 1: None of this happens. None of this happens in other
- 39:31Speaker 1: cities and states. It is a witch's brew of bad
- 39:36Speaker 1: to force these things to happen. So every time they happen,
- 39:39Speaker 1: don't blame ICE. Blame Democratic policy.
- 39:43Speaker 3: Well, it's a bad look. And I've said this over
- 39:46Speaker 3: and over. There are two ways to snatch up somebody
- 39:48Speaker 3: that has a detainer. You do it at 4 o'clock
- 39:51Speaker 3: in the afternoon. A ton of kids are on the street.
- 39:55Speaker 3: The guy is in a vehicle with a 5-year-old kid
- 39:58Speaker 3: in the back. You know how bad that looks? You
- 40:00Speaker 3: fire at the vehicle seven times. Hopefully, one of the
- 40:05Speaker 3: ICE officers had the body cam on because we've been
- 40:08Speaker 3: promised that when they do traffic stops, the body cam
- 40:11Speaker 3: will be on. But the DHS did not get ahead
- 40:15Speaker 3: of this at all. First of all, they don't have
- 40:17Speaker 3: any Hispanic-speaking spokespersons. In that area, if you don't speak Spanish,
- 40:22Speaker 3: very few people are going to understand what you're saying.
- 40:25Speaker 3: So right away, there's a huge Spanish media here in
- 40:28Speaker 3: our tri-state area, 41, Channel 41, 47, I'll make a
- 40:32Speaker 3: whole bunch of them. And whatever has been put out,
- 40:36Speaker 3: does not contradict what is being said by Zoran Mandami,
- 40:40Speaker 3: who spent two hours on the phone with Donald Trump
- 40:42Speaker 3: and with Mullins, head of DHS, trying to negotiate the
- 40:46Speaker 3: release of this guy. And obviously everyone else who at
- 40:51Speaker 3: 11 o'clock at night was having a press conference to
- 40:54Speaker 3: question and challenge how the DHS made this arrest. I
- 41:00Speaker 3: can tell you this. When you have a DHS guy
- 41:03Speaker 3: out there with an assault weapon holding it in the
- 41:06Speaker 3: air in all the videos. Larry, that is a bad look.
- 41:09Speaker 1: This guy may have killed a cop. That's what they're
- 41:12Speaker 1: after him for. That's why they want him. Would you
- 41:15Speaker 1: stop defending the undefendable? These are bad, bad, bad people.
- 41:18Speaker 3: What the hell is a freaking assault weapon being out
- 41:20Speaker 3: there for?
- 41:21Speaker 2: So what?
- 41:21Speaker 1: They never use assault weapons. Who doesn't use assault weapons?
- 41:25Speaker 8: DHS.
- 41:25Speaker 2: ICE does.
- 41:25Speaker 1: They use 9mm. ICE has had them before. You saw
- 41:28Speaker 1: them with them in Minneapolis. Larry, do you not accept
- 41:30Speaker 1: the fact that this is a bad look? Would you
- 41:32Speaker 1: stop defending this? Yes, it's a bad look. It's a
- 41:35Speaker 1: bad look when people are killed on the streets. It's
- 41:37Speaker 1: a bad look that we have so many people illegal
- 41:40Speaker 1: committing crimes over and over and over again. And then
- 41:44Speaker 1: when you try to get them, when you try to
- 41:46Speaker 1: round them up, uh-oh, kid gloves. Hold them with kid gloves.
- 41:50Speaker 1: Watch what you're doing. Watch if you're on video. Do
- 41:52Speaker 1: you like Jessica Tish? Do you like Jessica Tish, the
- 41:55Speaker 1: police commissioner?
- 41:56Speaker 3: All she has said that he had a conviction for
- 41:59Speaker 3: robbery in 2023. He pled guilty five years probation. He
- 42:03Speaker 3: should have been handed over to ICE. You're correct. And
- 42:05Speaker 3: recently he was arrested for a drug sale still pending.
- 42:09Speaker 1: That's what the NYPD is saying.
- 42:11Speaker 3: DHS is telling a completely different story and they're not
- 42:15Speaker 3: ahead of this story.
- 42:16Speaker 1: And then you have Mamdani who showed us who he
- 42:19Speaker 1: really is.
- 42:20Speaker 8: We know that ICE is rotten to its core.
- 42:23Speaker 15: Today's shooting is only further devastating confirmation of what we
- 42:27Speaker 15: have long known, which is that ICE operates with impunity,
- 42:31Speaker 15: that they sow chaos and terror across our country, that
- 42:34Speaker 15: they have killed far more of our neighbors than they
- 42:37Speaker 15: could ever have claimed to save.
- 42:39Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. That was a lie at the end. And
- 42:42Speaker 1: everything he said, well, he just showed who he really is.
- 42:46Speaker 1: He's been hiding. He's been showing that he's not a radical.
- 42:50Speaker 1: And he's been trying to be very soft-spoken and answer
- 42:55Speaker 1: things logically. That's who he is. That is the crazy
- 43:00Speaker 1: revolutionary psycho that he is. But he's said this ever
- 43:02Speaker 1: since he left. He's always said that I should be disbanded.
- 43:05Speaker 1: Not like that. He never said that you should be abolished.
- 43:07Speaker 1: He's never said that they're rotten to the core. Man.
- 43:11Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't say that many times.
- 43:13Speaker 2: Are they?
- 43:13Speaker 8: No.
- 43:14Speaker 1: Of course they're not. But Larry, would you listen to
- 43:17Speaker 1: me for a second? I've listened to you. Because I'm
- 43:18Speaker 1: an expert. What have I said over and over? You're
- 43:20Speaker 1: not an expert on this. You hate ICE. You don't
- 43:23Speaker 1: like Trump. Would you listen to me? You're not objective
- 43:26Speaker 1: on any of this. U.S.
- 43:27Speaker 3: Marshals make arrests all the time of bad hombres. They
- 43:30Speaker 3: do it at 3 o'clock in the morning. They get
- 43:32Speaker 3: them at their apartment when they're asleep. You don't do
- 43:35Speaker 3: it at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, fire seven shots.
- 43:40Speaker 1: And why did that happen? Because he wasn't handed over
- 43:42Speaker 1: when he was arrested. If that were to happen, it
- 43:46Speaker 1: happens in state after state after state. Do you ever
- 43:49Speaker 1: hear about this?
- 43:50Speaker 3: Would you have preferred that he get taken into custody
- 43:55Speaker 3: at 3 and 4 in the morning when everyone's sleeping?
- 43:57Speaker 1: I would rather he just be handed over after he
- 44:00Speaker 1: was arrested because of his legal status.
- 44:02Speaker 17: Why?
- 44:03Speaker 1: It's a sanctuary state.
- 44:05Speaker 5: Right.
- 44:05Speaker 1: That's the problem. And it's been that way since.
- 44:08Speaker 3: Ed Koch, Rudy Giuliani, George Pataki, El Jefe, Chris Christie.
- 44:12Speaker 1: Believe me, I'm not blaming your guy, Mamdani. I know
- 44:16Speaker 1: the history of it. That's the problem. That's why this happens.
- 44:22Speaker 1: You do it at night, three to four.
- 44:24Speaker 8: In the morning.
- 44:25Speaker 1: You wouldn't even have to.
- 44:25Speaker 8: He's sleeping.
- 44:26Speaker 1: Nobody's going to be up in the streets.
- 44:28Speaker 10: He'll be in custody.
- 44:29Speaker 1: You wouldn't have to do it at all if you
- 44:30Speaker 1: had reasonable policy, and that's what you should be attacking.
- 44:32Speaker 3: If this is what you want ICE to do, you're
- 44:34Speaker 3: going to lose the midterm elections.
- 44:36Speaker 1: You're going to lose four Republicans. I'm going to lose
- 44:38Speaker 1: the midterm elections? I'm not even running. Wow. Who you
- 44:44Speaker 1: defend and what you defend sometimes gets to me. I'm
- 44:46Speaker 1: telling you the right way to do it, Larry. The
- 44:48Speaker 1: right way to do it is to hand them over.
- 44:50Speaker 1: Three to four in the morning. Talk sense. You hand
- 44:54Speaker 1: them over at the prisons. That's what you do. Say
- 44:57Speaker 1: goodbye to the pizza of your youth. Plus a chance
- 45:00Speaker 1: to see a live stage of Bronx Tale. So when
- 45:04Speaker 1: you were a kid, did either of you eat the
- 45:08Speaker 1: Celeste frozen pizzas?
- 45:11Speaker 4: We definitely had them in my house when I was
- 45:13Speaker 4: a kid. You could make them in the microwave.
- 45:16Speaker 1: I know.
- 45:16Speaker 2: I know.
- 45:17Speaker 1: You know, I remember them. I didn't eat them as
- 45:20Speaker 1: much as the Elio's pizzas.
- 45:22Speaker 4: That was the frozen pizza in my household. And to
- 45:24Speaker 4: tell you the truth, we still buy it today.
- 45:26Speaker 1: My son loves it. Wait a second. You had frozen pizzas?
- 45:30Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 45:31Speaker 16: Yep.
- 45:31Speaker 3: Well, maybe you actually went into the cafeteria on Friday
- 45:35Speaker 3: in your school and had the fake English muffins with
- 45:39Speaker 3: American cheese on it, hunched tomato ketchup on it that
- 45:42Speaker 3: they put in the microwave, and they called that pizza.
- 45:45Speaker 9: Yes, I did, and I liked it.
- 45:46Speaker 1: And I grew up in Staten Island, and they were
- 45:50Speaker 1: the best pizzerias. You're right. In colleges, too. Frozen pizzas.
- 45:54Speaker 1: Those little frozen pizzas. People live on them. But anyway,
- 45:58Speaker 1: so Elio's has the whole market to itself right now
- 46:01Speaker 1: because Celeste's frozen pizzas is going away. What?
- 46:06Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 46:07Speaker 1: And how do you pronounce this? Conagra? Conagra Brands?
- 46:10Speaker 4: Yeah, they were like one of those huge, you know,
- 46:12Speaker 4: food companies. They make everything under the sun.
- 46:15Speaker 3: When I worked at A & P, the frozen food aisle,
- 46:18Speaker 3: Celeste was like the most popular. what people brought to
- 46:23Speaker 3: the checkout stand. Now, this is back in the late 70s,
- 46:26Speaker 3: but I got to tell you, why did they go
- 46:28Speaker 3: out of business? Well, it says the Conagra makes them.
- 46:32Speaker 3: It stopped producing Celeste frozen pizzas, prompting fans to get
- 46:36Speaker 3: really upset. The company disclosed the move during its fiscal
- 46:40Speaker 3: quarter 2027 earnings that were down. So I got a
- 46:46Speaker 3: feeling they feel it's not selling as much as it
- 46:49Speaker 3: used to.
- 46:49Speaker 4: They said it's a really small brand for them. So
- 46:52Speaker 4: it's just, you know, not making money. But have you
- 46:55Speaker 4: guys seen the frozen pizza aisle lately? It takes up probably...
- 47:00Speaker 4: Like four freezer cases.
- 47:02Speaker 1: Oh, I know.
- 47:03Speaker 9: It's crazy how many types there are.
- 47:05Speaker 1: So there's the regular pizzas, and then you go to
- 47:09Speaker 1: the health section or the organic section, and then there's
- 47:12Speaker 1: three more stacks of them. I mean, they're all over
- 47:17Speaker 1: the place. You're right. Pizza's the biggest thing.
- 47:19Speaker 3: I'm wondering, the brand is so famous, it goes back
- 47:22Speaker 3: 50 years at least, maybe even more. Why they didn't
- 47:25Speaker 3: just spin it off to another company like PepsiCo that
- 47:28Speaker 3: has like 50,000 different brands?
- 47:30Speaker 4: Well, that's what Conagra is. That is one of those
- 47:33Speaker 4: type of companies. And I guess they just said it
- 47:36Speaker 4: wasn't worth it because it was such a small production.
- 47:39Speaker 4: But somebody should pick up the name because the name
- 47:41Speaker 4: is so good. And honestly, they say they stopped making
- 47:44Speaker 4: them already. You know, they're out of production. You probably
- 47:47Speaker 4: could still find some. in a freezer case somewhere, so
- 47:50Speaker 4: I'm going.
- 47:50Speaker 1: To go look this weekend.
- 47:52Speaker 8: Really?
- 47:52Speaker 3: You could eat them two years later if they were
- 47:54Speaker 3: still in the frozen food section.
- 47:56Speaker 1: But it's sad when you see.
- 47:57Speaker 13: A food like that.
- 47:57Speaker 1: But LAOs are so much better. That's why they're going
- 48:00Speaker 1: out of business. They're so much better. Let's get to
- 48:04Speaker 1: some talkbacks.
- 48:05Speaker 11: Tell Curtis, a bad look is people being set on
- 48:08Speaker 11: fire on the subway by illegal aliens, too.
- 48:11Speaker 1: That's a bad look, too. No, that's apparently okay. Nobody's
- 48:16Speaker 1: defending criminals. It's just the way they're doing it. How
- 48:21Speaker 1: they're doing it is the problem. Putting other people, innocent
- 48:24Speaker 1: people in jail. Yeah, it's how they're doing it, right?
- 48:27Speaker 1: That's what you're saying? It's how ICE is doing it.
- 48:30Speaker 1: Not how the state is doing it. Not how the
- 48:32Speaker 1: city is doing it. Not just turning over these criminals.
- 48:35Speaker 1: So you're going to blame ICE, who is actually doing
- 48:39Speaker 1: something to take those criminals off the seats.
- 48:41Speaker 3: Well, I will blame them. They don't even have a
- 48:43Speaker 3: director now. They should have Tom Holman removed from the border.
- 48:46Speaker 3: The border is sealed up. Trump has done a great
- 48:48Speaker 3: job there. And let him run ICE. They do not
- 48:51Speaker 3: have a director of ICE. Who's running the training?
- 48:54Speaker 1: But why do we keep talking about ICE when they're
- 48:56Speaker 1: not the problem? Well, in this case, they look like
- 49:00Speaker 1: the problem, Larry. Well, they're put in that position because
- 49:04Speaker 1: this guy was allowed back on the streets like every
- 49:07Speaker 1: illegal that commits a crime is. is back on the
- 49:09Speaker 1: streets and not turned over the ice. That creates the problem.
- 49:12Speaker 3: Even organized crime doesn't whack you when you're in a
- 49:14Speaker 3: car with a kid in there or your wife.
- 49:16Speaker 1: Come on, Larry. Blame the source. Blame the problem. Why
- 49:20Speaker 1: won't you say that? Why won't you say they shouldn't
- 49:23Speaker 1: be letting these people out?
- 49:24Speaker 3: Larry, because we're dealing with this Polaroid snapshot now, and
- 49:26Speaker 3: ICE has not had its proper training.
- 49:29Speaker 1: That's been admitted by people in ICE. Let Tom Holman
- 49:33Speaker 1: run it, please. They don't even have an ICE director.
- 49:36Speaker 1: You're lost.
- 49:38Speaker 9: I just don't understand people.
- 49:39Speaker 3: I really don't.
- 49:40Speaker 2: You know, I know everyone has the right to have
- 49:42Speaker 2: their own opinion.
- 49:42Speaker 15: But in this case, socialism and to vote for a
- 49:47Speaker 15: radical socialist.
- 49:49Speaker 2: I just don't understand.
- 49:51Speaker 13: We should send all these people to a socialist country.
- 49:53Speaker 2: Let them stay for a short while.
- 49:55Speaker 1: They'd be running back.
- 49:56Speaker 2: It's in Donald Trump's feet.
- 49:59Speaker 3: Well, I guess she's referring to El Shia. who's as
- 50:03Speaker 3: close to socialism as you can get, but he claims
- 50:05Speaker 3: he's a capitalist with some socialist leanings.
- 50:08Speaker 1: They're out there.
- 50:09Speaker 3: They're part of the Democratic Party now.
- 50:11Speaker 1: The voters will decide. A Democrat. These are criminals on
- 50:16Speaker 1: the street. They don't belong in this country. They end
- 50:18Speaker 1: up killing people, robbing people. They need to go. They
- 50:22Speaker 1: need to go. Oh, no, no. There's an entire party
- 50:26Speaker 1: that doesn't think they should. There's an entire party. Have
- 50:29Speaker 1: you heard? Let's do this next week. You'll hear some
- 50:33Speaker 1: of the candidates for the Democrats across the country. saying
- 50:37Speaker 1: they should give a path to citizenship or just make
- 50:40Speaker 1: citizens of 11 million people.
- 50:43Speaker 3: They could do it the right way like they did
- 50:44Speaker 3: with Obama. Tom Homan was in charge. You never had
- 50:47Speaker 3: any of these instances.
- 50:48Speaker 1: You're crazy. The right way is to turn them over
- 50:49Speaker 1: from their jails. More were deported under Obama. Is that
- 50:53Speaker 1: correct or not correct? Yes, he did a good job.
- 50:55Speaker 1: Who was in charge? Tom Homan. Thank you. So what
- 50:59Speaker 1: does that mean? There's a right way to do it
- 51:00Speaker 1: and a wrong way to do it. Yes. Handing them
- 51:03Speaker 1: over is the right way to do it. I don't
- 51:06Speaker 1: know what you're talking about, but maybe Daria Albinger can
- 51:09Speaker 1: make sense of the whole thing.
- 51:10Speaker 12: Oh, no.
- 51:11Speaker 1: You know what? You should stay out of this. Why
- 51:12Speaker 1: don't you just do the news?
- 51:15Speaker 9: Good morning, guys.
- 51:16Speaker 1: Take a breath.
- 51:17Speaker 9: Sunny, a little cooler today. We'll see a high of
- 51:20Speaker 9: 71 degrees. Governor Hochul wants all ICE operations stopped in
- 51:24Speaker 9: New York as an investigation begins into the shooting of
- 51:27Speaker 9: an undocumented immigrant yesterday. Mayor Mamdani says he agrees with
- 51:31Speaker 9: the governor.
- 51:31Speaker 15: There is no explanation for federal officers firing this many
- 51:36Speaker 15: rounds into a car that has a five-year-old in the car.
- 51:40Speaker 9: ICE says the man was a violent criminal. Now, ICE
- 51:42Speaker 9: also says that he was using that car to ram
- 51:45Speaker 9: the agents. The ex-boyfriend of a Bronx woman who was
- 51:49Speaker 9: pushed to her death from her apartment balcony is going
- 51:52Speaker 9: to be in court today.
- 51:53Speaker 18: The NYPD arrested 31-year-old Angel Carrasco, who smiled at reporters
- 51:58Speaker 18: as he was carted off to a psych evaluation. Carrasco
- 52:01Speaker 18: is accused of pushing 23-year-old Natalie Ramirez off the balcony
- 52:05Speaker 18: as she was holding their eight-month-old daughter. Ramirez was pronounced
- 52:08Speaker 18: dead at the hospital, but authorities say she may have
- 52:11Speaker 18: cushioned her baby's fall, even though the little girl has
- 52:14Speaker 18: been in critical condition. Officials say Carrasco was hiding out
- 52:17Speaker 18: in a friend's house when he was arrested and charged
- 52:19Speaker 18: with murder, attempted murder, and manslaughter.
- 52:22Speaker 9: Natalie Migliore, WOR News. The Pentagon is now saying that
- 52:26Speaker 9: the December 3rd execution of Major Nadel Hassan, the former
- 52:30Speaker 9: Army major who killed 13 people in a shooting rampage
- 52:33Speaker 9: at Fort Hood, Texas in 2009, will be live-streamed. Now,
- 52:37Speaker 9: public executions were once common in the U.S., but they
- 52:40Speaker 9: were phased out in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
- 52:44Speaker 9: Hurricane Isaias is forecast to reach Category 3 strength later
- 52:48Speaker 9: today as it spins toward the Gulf Coast. Hurricane warnings
- 52:51Speaker 9: are now in effect from Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle
- 52:54Speaker 9: for the first Atlantic hurricane of the year. It's expected
- 52:57Speaker 9: to make landfall late tonight or early tomorrow and bring
- 53:00Speaker 9: rain to our area early next week. Islanders beat Chicago.
- 53:04Speaker 9: The Liberty hosts Atlanta tonight in a must-win Game 3

- 53:12Speaker 9: at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
- 53:15Speaker 1: Thank you, Daria. Well, what a good time to bring
- 53:18Speaker 1: in former Westchester County executive and former candidate for governor,
- 53:22Speaker 1: Rob Astorino, to not only talk about ICE, but the
- 53:26Speaker 1: midterms and the New York elections. Rob Astorino is coming
- 53:30Speaker 1: up next. But right now, man, just another person saved
- 53:34Speaker 1: this week. Another person saved by life back. And you know,
- 53:37Speaker 1: most of the people that get saved are children. That's
- 53:40Speaker 1: why if you're a parent, you really should have LifeVac
- 53:43Speaker 1: in your house. I just gave one to my daughter
- 53:46Speaker 1: to protect her three grandchildren because emergencies can happen in
- 53:51Speaker 1: a minute, in a second. And when they do, you
- 53:55Speaker 1: need to act immediately and you need a life-saving device,
- 54:00Speaker 1: just like LifeVac. LifeVac is the first and only FDA-authorized
- 54:05Speaker 1: suction anti-choking device to be used for second-line treatment when
- 54:10Speaker 1: recommended choking protocols have been followed without success. And here's
- 54:15Speaker 1: what's so remarkable about LifeVac. We just talked about it
- 54:18Speaker 1: a moment ago. Another life saved this week. LifeVac has
- 54:22Speaker 1: helped save over 6,000 lives worldwide. It's coming close to 6,500.
- 54:28Speaker 1: Those aren't just numbers, of course. They're real people. They're
- 54:31Speaker 1: real second chances. Preparedness matters. Are you prepared? Because having
- 54:36Speaker 1: the right tool nearby can mean the difference between life
- 54:39Speaker 1: and death. So learn more about LifeFact today at LifeFact.net.

- 54:47Speaker 1: it counts.
- 54:49Speaker 3: Time, Larry and Natalie, for our colleague Rob Astorino. You
- 54:52Speaker 3: can hear him on his own show. Saturdays, 4 to 5,
- 54:55Speaker 3: right here at 710 WR. But right on time. Rob Astorino,
- 55:00Speaker 3: I sat down yesterday and I did the polls on
- 55:03Speaker 3: this Marist poll yesterday. And I'm telling you, I'm feeling
- 55:06Speaker 3: a Blakeman surge here. He's winning independence, which, as you know,
- 55:10Speaker 3: generally doesn't happen until the last two weeks. The unlike
- 55:14Speaker 3: abilities for Hochul continue to be there. And he seems
- 55:18Speaker 3: like he's got a tight campaign now. The commercials are good.
- 55:21Speaker 3: He's going to the right places. He's with Trump in
- 55:23Speaker 3: Syracuse today. What's your perception?
- 55:28Speaker 8: Look, I've been saying this, Curtis, consistently, the numbers for
- 55:32Speaker 8: Hochul are are not where they need to be.
- 55:35Speaker 1: Not at all. They're soft.
- 55:37Speaker 8: She's unlikable. They don't think the state's going in the
- 55:39Speaker 8: right direction. And Blakeman, as you said, I mean, independency
- 55:43Speaker 8: has consistently been winning. OK, so that with regard to
- 55:48Speaker 8: upstate New York still going with with a Republican. And
- 55:51Speaker 8: that's actually people say, oh, they always go Republican. It
- 55:55Speaker 8: hasn't been that way in the last decade. They've gone
- 55:57Speaker 8: Democrat as well. And, you know, a lot of upstate
- 55:59Speaker 8: New Yorkers have left or died so you know it's
- 56:02Speaker 8: changed a little bit but he's also she's also not
- 56:05Speaker 8: doing well in the suburbs and long island's included in
- 56:08Speaker 8: that so the other key thing in long island all
- 56:11Speaker 8: the town supervisors are up most of them are republican
- 56:15Speaker 8: so they're going to be pulling out the vote too
- 56:16Speaker 8: so there's a lot of things working in blakeman's direction
- 56:20Speaker 8: this year i go back to my polling in 2009
- 56:24Speaker 8: when i won my county executive race i was losing
- 56:27Speaker 8: by seven or eight points in a two-to-one Democratic county
- 56:30Speaker 8: late in the election. And it was like, oh, you
- 56:32Speaker 8: can't win, you can't win.
- 56:34Speaker 1: And I won by 13.
- 56:34Speaker 8: That was a huge swing. Same thing when I was
- 56:38Speaker 8: running for governor. Now, I lost the race by 12
- 56:40Speaker 8: and a half or whatever it was. But the public
- 56:43Speaker 8: polling had me down by 30 points going into election day.
- 56:47Speaker 8: And we picked up 20 points because people actually voted.
- 56:52Speaker 8: So the point is, there's a lot happening look at
- 56:55Speaker 8: the numbers, but don't, don't rely totally on the numbers.
- 56:58Speaker 8: People still have to vote. And they're in a pissy
- 57:00Speaker 8: mood right now for the right reasons. I don't know
- 57:03Speaker 8: if you guys saw the debate. I wanted to, I
- 57:04Speaker 8: didn't want to forget this, but the last, last night,
- 57:07Speaker 8: and of course it was on New York one, because
- 57:09Speaker 8: that's the only thing that Democrats will do. They only
- 57:12Speaker 8: want to do debates on cable to limit people being
- 57:14Speaker 8: able to see it instead of on like channel four
- 57:17Speaker 8: or seven, whatever. But that attorney general debate here in
- 57:20Speaker 8: New York, Saritha Kamathuretti is an unbelievable candidate. She sliced
- 57:28Speaker 8: and diced Tish James last night on everything. It was
- 57:33Speaker 8: so embarrassing to watch Tish James try to hum, you know, humming, humming,
- 57:38Speaker 8: humming her way through this on the Cornell situation, on ice,
- 57:42Speaker 8: on everything. It was really embarrassing. And I hope people
- 57:47Speaker 8: take a look at Saritha Kamataredi for attorney general, because
- 57:49Speaker 8: God knows we need to change there. She, she was fantastic.
- 57:52Speaker 1: Yeah, we should talk about more of that on Monday
- 57:55Speaker 1: and pull some of the bites and some of the
- 57:57Speaker 1: sound from that so we can play it for people.
- 57:59Speaker 1: So we'll try to get to that on Monday. Now,
- 58:02Speaker 1: there was so much going on last night, of course,
- 58:04Speaker 1: that things like that get lost and especially because of
- 58:08Speaker 1: the outlet that's running it. But I wanted to talk
- 58:11Speaker 1: to you about the polls because you talked about them
- 58:13Speaker 1: a moment ago. You talked about your own poll, how
- 58:15Speaker 1: it was wrong in Westchester County. I saw Harry Enten
- 58:19Speaker 1: talking about the polls and how bad they were in
- 58:21Speaker 1: the last election. And every single time, it seems to
- 58:25Speaker 1: favor Democrats. So I started to do a deeper dive
- 58:29Speaker 1: in it. And Real Clear Politics does a great job
- 58:32Speaker 1: at looking at the polls and looking at their potential bias.
- 58:35Speaker 1: Listen to this. They studied 18 polls over a 10-year period.
- 58:43Speaker 1: And how many of you do you think favored Republicans
- 58:46Speaker 1: of those 18s?
- 58:47Speaker 8: I'm going to say zero.
- 58:49Speaker 1: Oh, it's four. It's four. So 14 to four. But
- 58:54Speaker 1: listen to some of the Democratic bias. For instance, let's
- 58:56Speaker 1: pick out Monmouth University right down the road. Eighty four
- 59:01Speaker 1: percent of the errors they made favored Democrats. Eighty four percent.
- 59:07Speaker 1: And so the problem is, as you well know, people
- 59:10Speaker 1: see polls and sometimes it suppresses the votes. You got
- 59:14Speaker 1: to ignore the polls. You have to. I know it's
- 59:17Speaker 1: a necessary evil, but I think that you would counsel people,
- 59:21Speaker 1: you know, vote with your heart, not with the polls. Oh, 100%.
- 59:25Speaker 8: I also wish if I had my way, I would
- 59:27Speaker 8: ban polling to be public. Because it has so skewed
- 59:32Speaker 8: the debates and the elections. And people, like you said,
- 59:35Speaker 8: they're like, I'm not going out because my candidate is
- 59:37Speaker 8: winning big or my candidate is going to get clobbered
- 59:40Speaker 8: or whatever. And so people don't go out.
- 59:43Speaker 1: Or they follow the leader.
- 59:44Speaker 8: They want to be with the winner. So they vote
- 59:46Speaker 8: for who they think the polls are telling them they're
- 59:48Speaker 8: going to win. And I would love– if I could
- 59:51Speaker 8: snap a finger and do one thing, it would be
- 59:53Speaker 8: to ban public polling. Just stop it. People– Make up
- 59:58Speaker 8: your own freaking minds. But having said that, I've seen
- 1:00:02Speaker 8: this all the time. Now, look, they're not always wrong,
- 1:00:07Speaker 8: and generally speaking, they're within reason. But in the end,
- 1:00:11Speaker 8: you have a lot of things brewing at once, and
- 1:00:14Speaker 8: people have to vote, and things get skewed in these numbers.
- 1:00:19Speaker 8: And there's such an overemphasis on this, like it is
- 1:00:23Speaker 8: a horse race. with not actual people being involved in it.
- 1:00:27Speaker 8: So hopefully, I honestly believe the timing is right.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: And think about how crazy this is, guys.
- 1:00:34Speaker 8: You've got Republican states that are struggling, right? Democrats are
- 1:00:40Speaker 8: doing much better, at least in the polls, in these
- 1:00:43Speaker 8: red states. And in purple and blue states, you've got
- 1:00:46Speaker 8: Republicans doing better. Republicans can actually win in Oregon. They're
- 1:00:51Speaker 8: winning in Oregon.
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: Minneapolis.
- 1:00:54Speaker 8: In Minnesota, she's winning to FOIA. So it's a crazy year.
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: One last thing on the polls, though. They are very consistent. Affordability,
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: cost of living, war in Iran. Almost every poll you
- 1:01:08Speaker 3: look at, how do the Republicans overcome that?
- 1:01:12Speaker 8: Well, one other thing, though, about the polling, and it's
- 1:01:14Speaker 8: been very consistent, and the pollsters admit this, It is
- 1:01:19Speaker 8: very difficult to get accurate responses from certainly people in
- 1:01:24Speaker 8: rural areas and people who have been voting for Trump.
- 1:01:28Speaker 8: That's a question that if they do not ask in.
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: A poll, it is skewed.
- 1:01:32Speaker 8: Who did you vote for in 2024 for president? Because
- 1:01:36Speaker 8: that is much more reliable than not having that question asked.
- 1:01:41Speaker 8: And that's one thing I look in polling right away,
- 1:01:43Speaker 8: whether they ask that question or not.
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: Um, but yeah, I mean, look, affordability is no question.
- 1:01:48Speaker 8: I mean, some of the States, I was just in Nebraska,
- 1:01:50Speaker 8: which is very red and, you know, they're struggling in
- 1:01:53Speaker 8: the polling. They're going to win, I think, but yeah,
- 1:01:56Speaker 8: the affordability issue is a big, it's.
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: A big issue.
- 1:01:58Speaker 8: There's no question about it. The question is whether people
- 1:02:01Speaker 8: want to put a long-term solution by giving the Democrats
- 1:02:04Speaker 8: power or not.
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: What were you doing in Nebraska?
- 1:02:08Speaker 8: Pete Ricketts, the Senator there, I was with him, uh,
- 1:02:11Speaker 8: for Newsmax. So we were together for Monday and, um,
- 1:02:16Speaker 8: You know, look, again, Nebraska will come home. At the
- 1:02:20Speaker 8: end of the day, Pete Ricketts is going to win.
- 1:02:22Speaker 8: But it's tighter than it should be, at least in
- 1:02:24Speaker 8: the polling. And the bad part about this is national
- 1:02:28Speaker 8: Republicans have to divert money. So they're pulling the plug
- 1:02:30Speaker 8: in North Carolina. Looks like they're pulling the plug in Georgia.
- 1:02:33Speaker 8: And they're sending that money to other states like Texas
- 1:02:36Speaker 8: and Michigan and even Kansas, which they haven't voted for
- 1:02:39Speaker 8: a Democrat for Senate since the 1930s, literally. But they're
- 1:02:43Speaker 8: sending money there to prop up their candidates.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: So people can see that out on Monday? What time?
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: Do you know? I don't.
- 1:02:50Speaker 8: I don't know when it's going to air.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: Oh, you're really bad at promoting things. Newsmax is going
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: to be upset with you. Rob Astorino, host of the
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: Rob Astorino Show on WOR, Saturdays, 4 to 5 p.m.,
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: and host of Saturday Agenda, 1 to 3 p.m. on Newsmax.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: Go ahead.
- 1:03:05Speaker 8: It will air tomorrow on my show on Newsmax.
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: Okay, perfect. Former Westchester County executive. Thanks, Rob. My wish
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: come true up next.
- 1:03:14Speaker 3: Natalie Migliore out in the streets asking people, do you
- 1:03:19Speaker 3: know who Ella Langley is?
- 1:03:21Speaker 18: It's 710WOR Speed on the Street with Natalie Migliore.
- 1:03:28Speaker 3: Glory, hallelujah, my wish has finally become true. For weeks
- 1:03:33Speaker 3: I've lobbied to have Natalie Migliore go down in the streets,
- 1:03:36Speaker 3: talk to average persons, and ask them if they recognize
- 1:03:42Speaker 3: the name Ella Langley. It was brought to my attention
- 1:03:45Speaker 3: when Larry aptly pointed out she had the number one
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: musical hit for weeks and weeks and weeks. He played
- 1:03:51Speaker 3: it and I said, I don't know who this person is.
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: Okay, Larry, let's bring it up. You needed to recuse yourself. Oh,
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: are you biased?
- 1:04:02Speaker 9: Oh, please.
- 1:04:04Speaker 18: Okay, I took her to the streets to see if
- 1:04:06Speaker 18: people know the name Ella Langley.
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: I can't make people know it or not. Either you
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: know it or you don't.
- 1:04:12Speaker 18: So it spent, this song, Choosing Texas, spent more than
- 1:04:16Speaker 18: 24 weeks on the number one spot on the Billboard
- 1:04:20Speaker 18: Hot 100.
- 1:04:20Speaker 9: So do they know her?
- 1:04:22Speaker 19: I don't know much about her. Like, I think I've
- 1:04:23Speaker 19: heard some of that song and I've definitely heard her
- 1:04:25Speaker 19: name a lot. I think I saw that she was
- 1:04:27Speaker 19: like topping the charts and I was like, I don't
- 1:04:29Speaker 19: really know what that is.
- 1:04:30Speaker 6: She's been doing good.
- 1:04:31Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:04:32Speaker 6: I listen to her a lot. I mean, all of
- 1:04:33Speaker 6: her music is a story.
- 1:04:34Speaker 18: Like, I know one of her songs.
- 1:04:36Speaker 8: Which one?
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: I forgot.
- 1:04:37Speaker 14: It's the, she's from Texas, I can tell.
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: I know that song.
- 1:04:41Speaker 3: I love it so much.
- 1:04:42Speaker 9: I'm old school. I like R & B old school.
- 1:04:46Speaker 6: Does she spell her name E-L-L-E? E-L-L-A.
- 1:04:50Speaker 3: Langley.
- 1:04:50Speaker 14: So, no.
- 1:04:51Speaker 8: No. I'll have to look her up, too.
- 1:04:53Speaker 9: Yeah, they're going to have to do a quick Google search.
- 1:04:56Speaker 18: So, a mix there. A lot of people saying they
- 1:04:58Speaker 18: stream music, so if they're not listening to the radio,
- 1:05:02Speaker 18: they might not necessarily be open or hearing the new songs.
- 1:05:08Speaker 18: Ella Langley really rose. But data shows the numbers are
- 1:05:11Speaker 18: pretty even. Just as many people streaming music as they
- 1:05:14Speaker 18: are listening to music on their radios. Yet how we've
- 1:05:19Speaker 18: listened to music, this whole discussion has brought up how
- 1:05:22Speaker 18: we've listened to music has changed over the years.
- 1:05:26Speaker 19: When I was growing up, I think we had a
- 1:05:27Speaker 19: tape deck in our car. And I had a CD
- 1:05:30Speaker 19: player that I used to listen to on the bus
- 1:05:31Speaker 19: to school and I would skip with the bumps on
- 1:05:34Speaker 19: the bus and stuff.
- 1:05:35Speaker 6: CD changer in my car. That was my cool phase.
- 1:05:38Speaker 6: Don't say an A-track.
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: Yes, I did. I had an A-track. The fat one?
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: I sure did.
- 1:05:46Speaker 6: That was my first CD was Off the Wall, Michael Jackson.
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: Can I just interrupt one second? Every respondent is a woman.
- 1:05:57Speaker 18: Yes.
- 1:05:57Speaker 6: A lot of guys didn't like to want to play along.
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: One guy was, you want to get into this?
- 1:06:01Speaker 18: One guy was like asking him if he still listens
- 1:06:03Speaker 18: to the radio and he just.
- 1:06:05Speaker 9: Backed up from me every second.
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: So Larry, this is like a poll that's not fair.
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: It's all females.
- 1:06:13Speaker 14: Whatever.
- 1:06:13Speaker 9: I mean, I can't control what I get sometimes.
- 1:06:15Speaker 18: And look, and you're also talking to somebody who had
- 1:06:18Speaker 18: a Barbie boom box on the floor of her parents' house.
- 1:06:23Speaker 18: And it's still there till this day. My parents are like,
- 1:06:25Speaker 18: get it out. You're getting married. But it's still there, guys.
- 1:06:28Speaker 18: So long gone are those days with people saying social
- 1:06:33Speaker 18: media plays a huge role in introducing them to new
- 1:06:36Speaker 18: music and things.
- 1:06:38Speaker 16: One of the biggest things is TikTok right now really
- 1:06:40Speaker 16: helps and pushes out new artists or artists I've never
- 1:06:42Speaker 16: heard of.
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: So I think that's one of the big things that
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: we have right now.
- 1:06:45Speaker 19: Social media is everything.
- 1:06:48Speaker 4: And then you never know the difference between I.A., And
- 1:06:53Speaker 4: what's real and what's fake.
- 1:06:55Speaker 9: Because they have so much stuff.
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: You know, exactly.
- 1:06:59Speaker 9: When she said I was like.
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: IA, AI, it's all the same.
- 1:07:03Speaker 18: Look, when I asked people who they would love to
- 1:07:05Speaker 18: see in concert, dead or alive, Ella Langley was not
- 1:07:08Speaker 18: on any of their lists. You'll hear the range in ages,
- 1:07:11Speaker 18: but there may be some singing and it's certainly not AI.
- 1:07:16Speaker 19: My favorite band is Fall Out Boy.
- 1:07:18Speaker 4: Gerald LaVert.
- 1:07:21Speaker 9: Michael Jackson.
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: I love him.
- 1:07:22Speaker 8: King of pop.
- 1:07:23Speaker 6: Everybody loves him, honestly.
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: MJ, I've never seen him in concert.
- 1:07:27Speaker 6: Prince, I've never seen him. Frank Sinatra, for sure. That
- 1:07:31Speaker 6: is my favorite. He's my absolute favorite artist.
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: What song?
- 1:07:34Speaker 6: It's always so hard because everyone that I hear, I
- 1:07:38Speaker 6: always like.
- 1:07:38Speaker 9: Come on, there used to be a ballpark right here.
- 1:07:41Speaker 9: I mean, Fly Me to the Moon's very basic. We've
- 1:07:44Speaker 9: got Pocket Full of Miracles.
- 1:07:45Speaker 6: When I was 17, so that's what I was thinking about.
- 1:07:48Speaker 6: When I was 17, it was a very good year.
- 1:07:53Speaker 6: It was a very good year for small town girls.
- 1:07:57Speaker 14: We did.
- 1:07:58Speaker 18: And I would have, if she was alive, if he
- 1:08:01Speaker 18: was alive, if she was alive, we'd be going together.
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: What a biased survey. Now you're doing sing-along student influence
- 1:08:07Speaker 3: to vote.
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: You sent me out. No, she didn't even know who
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: Ella Langley was. No, we got into it after. Come on,
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: take them on.
- 1:08:15Speaker 14: Go ahead.
- 1:08:16Speaker 13: Yeah, I know.
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: You can argue.
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: With program director Tom Cuddy. He rated Blinding Lights by
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: the weekend number one all time based on stats.
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: And that's the favorite of my wife. And you're not
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: going to be able to answer. I'm sorry, because we're
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: out of time. Natalie Migliore is going to be back
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: on Monday at the very same time. We'll talk more about.
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: What happened at Cornell University and what's going to happen next?
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: After the news, it's 8 o'clock.
- 1:08:41Speaker 3: Well, the story of Cornell University is reverberating all over
- 1:08:45Speaker 3: the United States and putting into question college, university life,
- 1:08:50Speaker 3: the life of frats, the life of sororities. But yesterday
- 1:08:55Speaker 3: was a roller coaster ride if you were following this.
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: First information was released.
- 1:09:00Speaker 3: Because this is now being tried in the court of
- 1:09:03Speaker 3: public opinion and obviously not within the four walls of
- 1:09:07Speaker 3: a criminal prosecution or civil prosecution. Apparently a female Cornell
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: student unrelated to this was not in the dorm room
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: informed the cops that that the frat brothers of this
- 1:09:20Speaker 3: frat in question told her to keep the orgy a
- 1:09:24Speaker 3: secret because it's bad for our image. Don't be texting
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: it out. Don't be sending it out. Don't be basically
- 1:09:33Speaker 3: alerting people to this. And she alerted the cops that
- 1:09:36Speaker 3: the frat brothers were having secret meetings to try to
- 1:09:40Speaker 3: get their message all together. So I'm thinking, okay, this
- 1:09:44Speaker 3: is really bad, bad, bad for these frat brothers. Then
- 1:09:48Speaker 3: all of a sudden, Larry, a tsunami of text released,
- 1:09:52Speaker 3: I'm assuming by defense attorneys for the Cornell 7, but
- 1:09:55Speaker 3: especially for this.
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: One young guy named Newell.
- 1:09:59Speaker 3: Now, Newell and Matthew were the two that she agreed
- 1:10:03Speaker 3: to have the threesome with. Apparently, it had a relationship with.
- 1:10:07Speaker 3: So the woman, Jane Doe, is texting. I don't think
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: we should feel any shame. This is the day after.
- 1:10:16Speaker 3: She's texting directly to Newell, nobody else. Newell texts back, oh,
- 1:10:21Speaker 3: the sex definitely was consensual. Now, when the defense attorney
- 1:10:25Speaker 3: for Jane Doe was asked about this, he said, well,
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: you got to understand, this is part of the denial,
- 1:10:32Speaker 3: the shame, the acceptance. So I'm saying to myself, wait
- 1:10:35Speaker 3: a second, that's not necessarily what you would do if
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: you were the victim of a gang rape. Then Jane
- 1:10:43Speaker 3: Doe texts out at the end of the day. And remember,
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: this is only to one of the guys, one of
- 1:10:49Speaker 3: the guys she likes out of the two. At the
- 1:10:52Speaker 3: end of the day, none of the sexual stuff was illegal.
- 1:10:56Speaker 3: I really like being with you and Matt. I don't
- 1:10:59Speaker 3: think we should feel any shame. Our body, our choice.
- 1:11:04Speaker 3: You were both super out of it. They should have left,
- 1:11:08Speaker 3: meaning the other frat brothers. If you have any regrets
- 1:11:11Speaker 3: or anything and you want to talk about it, I
- 1:11:14Speaker 3: am always here to talk about it because that was
- 1:11:18Speaker 3: a lot.
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: I really do love.
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: You, meaning Newell and Matt, and I promise I won't
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: get quiet and weird with you like I did the
- 1:11:29Speaker 3: last time.
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Those last few words could come back
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: to haunt the people.
- 1:11:39Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: Then on November 3rd, so this is days later, she's
- 1:11:43Speaker 3: now texting. Apparently, she's only texting at this point with
- 1:11:46Speaker 3: Newell because that's probably the one she liked the most,
- 1:11:50Speaker 3: had some kind of relationship with beyond just the physical
- 1:11:54Speaker 3: acts of sex. Now it's a totally different tone in
- 1:11:57Speaker 3: the text, right? Let's be clear, 90% of what happened
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: that night was not consensual.
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: And then Newell.
- 1:12:08Speaker 3: Writes back, to be honest, I don't really have much
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: of a memory of that night. If I knew what
- 1:12:13Speaker 3: had happened, I would have shut it down at that
- 1:12:17Speaker 3: particular point. Now, the problem for Newell and Matthew, the
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: one she likes, is that they took it upon themselves
- 1:12:24Speaker 3: on Snapchat when she was in their bed, apparently she
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: was in their bed, to put it out on snapchat
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: hey come on in you know get some free blankety
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: blank but what she was texting the day or two
- 1:12:37Speaker 3: afterwards to this specific guy newell wow it doesn't sound
- 1:12:43Speaker 3: like a victim to me.
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: Yeah you have dueling attorneys now obviously now that the
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: men i hate even calling the men from the fraternity
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: have their own attorneys now you have Her attorney releasing
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: things to the media, their attorney releasing things to the media.
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: But this isn't going to be tried in the media
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: or it shouldn't be tried in the media. But you're
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: going to hear a back and forth, a back and
- 1:13:09Speaker 1: forth until an investigation is done. And by the way,
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: there is a big, a huge movement now to remove
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: Letitia James and she should step down. If she had
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: any honor at all because of what she posted, basically
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: saying that, yes, it was a gang rape, she's not
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: objective in this case. And if she really had any
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: credibility whatsoever, she wouldn't even make this go to the court.
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: She would step down. There's another problem that Jane Doe has, though,
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: as well. Jane Doe is now afraid for her life.
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: Her name has gotten out. People know who she is.
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: Her home was doxed. The Police showed up. SWAT showed
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: up at her house. They also call it SWATing. Showed
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: up at her house, guns drawn, because there was a
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: report that her mother was shot and that there were
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: some other incidents. The guy was still there with a gun.
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: And so they came in, guns blazing, you know, not firing,
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: but guns out. And now she knows that her name
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: is out there. She's been getting death threats. They've been
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: getting anonymous phone calls at the house. So this is
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: getting uglier and uglier and uglier on both sides. And
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: the media is not going to back down. We're not
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: going to back down as long as there is information
- 1:14:32Speaker 1: coming out that we think you should know. But the
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: fact that anybody, anybody, can get a fair investigation or
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: a fair trial with so much going on around it
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: in a circle, and then also to have Letitia James,
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: who has already shown her bias in the case, leading
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: the prosecution, means we're going to be in court for
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: a long, long time. Because no matter what happens in
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: the first case, it's going to be appealed and appealed
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: and appealed and appealed. You know, she's running for office,
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: Tish James.
- 1:15:02Speaker 3: We heard Rod Bastarino describe her debate against a Republican
- 1:15:06Speaker 3: candidate last night. So Hochul has a number of different
- 1:15:10Speaker 3: potential special prosecutors she could pick from.
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: I agree with you. I concur.
- 1:15:15Speaker 3: She should recuse herself. She didn't know she would be
- 1:15:19Speaker 3: a special prosecutor on this case. So like every other politician,
- 1:15:22Speaker 3: you know, she went to her Facebook. She posted a statement.
- 1:15:25Speaker 3: But no, no, that should force her to recuse herself.
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: Let me give that statement real quick because I think
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: people should understand what she said. What this young woman
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: has been forced to endure is horrific. and unacceptable. I'm
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: holding her in my heart and in my prayers. To
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: her and to all survivors, you're not alone. We stand
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: with you. Doesn't sound like, sounds like she's made up
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: her mind.
- 1:15:50Speaker 3: This is before she's assigned special prosecutor. You can't just
- 1:15:54Speaker 3: make that go away. You didn't have to comment. You know,
- 1:15:57Speaker 3: most times DAs and prosecutors, they never comment on it.
- 1:16:02Speaker 3: You decided you're in the middle of an election against
- 1:16:05Speaker 3: a Republican candidate.
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: That you're going to comment, so recuse yourself.
- 1:16:09Speaker 3: But what really bothers me here is she acknowledges she
- 1:16:14Speaker 3: loves Newell and Matthew, the two that she was having
- 1:16:18Speaker 3: that threesome with. And then when she signs off on
- 1:16:22Speaker 3: one of the texts to Newell, who clearly she had
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: this texting relationship with, she writes, I really do love
- 1:16:29Speaker 3: you and Matt.
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: This is after the situation. And I promise I won't
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: get quiet and weird with you Like I did the
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: last time.
- 1:16:40Speaker 10: I know, I know.
- 1:16:41Speaker 3: Suggesting that something happened previously, maybe without additional guys coming
- 1:16:48Speaker 3: into the dorm room, as clearly happened here. But man,
- 1:16:52Speaker 3: now all of a sudden, I'm thinking to myself... We
- 1:16:55Speaker 3: need to know more.
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: Yeah, well, hopefully we won't hear anymore. I think that
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: this is destructive, what's happening right now. And you're going
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: to have opinions going back and forth and back and forth,
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: depending on what is released, which is going to cause
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: attorneys to release more and more and more and more.
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: And trust me, this is all coming from attorneys. And
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: I don't blame them. I don't blame them. They have clients.
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: There's a lot of money on the line. There's reputations
- 1:17:23Speaker 1: on the line. There's lives on the line. So, of course,
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: they're going to do that. So, and the media is
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: just eating this up and eating this up and eating
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: this up. But you have that, all of that happening,
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: which means it's not going to be a fair trial.
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: You have Letitia James right now leading the investigation, which
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: means it's not going to be a fair trial. And
- 1:17:45Speaker 1: so this is going to go through the courts for
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: a long, long time. A long, long time.
- 1:17:49Speaker 3: And because there's a civil case, this is what triggered
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: this on behalf of Jane Doe. Imagine Cornell decides, meet
- 1:17:57Speaker 3: with that attorney, settle. So that's probably what's going to happen.
- 1:18:00Speaker 3: They'll settle it first before a criminal trial. Then that
- 1:18:03Speaker 3: taints the criminal trial because why did you settle the
- 1:18:06Speaker 3: case if, in fact, your students were not guilty?
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: Right, and that's why I don't think there's going to
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: be a settlement. Why wouldn't you let the criminal case
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: go forward if you are the person with the lawsuit?
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: I mean, because all of that stuff's going to come out.
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: It's going to play out in the public. It makes
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: your case that much stronger. Even if they find them
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: not guilty, there's going to be people in this country
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: that are going to say, well, that's wrong. That's absolutely wrong.
- 1:18:33Speaker 3: You know, she's going to get muddied. She's probably never,
- 1:18:37Speaker 3: you know, she was muddied up just with the rumors
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: on campus. That was one of the motivations to report
- 1:18:43Speaker 3: it to the campus. And to leave campus.
- 1:18:45Speaker 4: Right.
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: She left school.
- 1:18:46Speaker 3: So I'm suggesting this is going to be intense. If
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: you're the attorney and you're advising her and probably her
- 1:18:55Speaker 3: mom or dad, whoever, take the settlement because the criminal
- 1:18:59Speaker 3: case is going to be brutal. And you don't want
- 1:19:02Speaker 3: to have both of these hanging over your head. And
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: I think Cornell would love to just settle this. Get
- 1:19:07Speaker 3: it out of the way. Look, they've got a big endowment.
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: It's not going to hurt them. But they're getting, I mean,
- 1:19:13Speaker 3: they're getting a black eye every which way.
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: I would be shocked if there's a settlement unless, I'll
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: make this caveat, unless it's money you can't turn down.
- 1:19:22Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: That that could change things. And apparently some of these
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: kids are rich.
- 1:19:28Speaker 3: If I'm Cornell and the people who've enriched them with
- 1:19:31Speaker 3: the endowment, you know, former alumni and the board, whatever
- 1:19:34Speaker 3: it costs, settle it.
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: Get us off of this radar screen. Yeah, that could happen.
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll get an update on the hurricane. Curtis,
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: what's the name again?
- 1:19:45Speaker 3: Sounds like a guy who just appointed the leader of Hamas, Al-Qaeda, Hezbollah,
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: Isis or.
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: Something like that? Isaias? Isaias? Isaias. I think. What a
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: dumb name. Luckily, we have Ray Stajic, an actual meteorologist,
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: who can give us the name, plus a chance to
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: see a live stage, a Bronx tale on a live stage,
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: the one-man show starring the man who wrote it, Chaz Palminteri.
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: He's coming up next. Well, we have a hurricane approaching
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: the U.S. coastline. It's expected to hit sometime today. And
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: it is a name of a hurricane that apparently only
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: meteorologists can pronounce. So luckily, we have Ray Stajic, WOR
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: Weather Channel meteorologist. Go ahead, say it.
- 1:20:32Speaker 5: It's Isaias.
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: I swear, Ray, that's the new leader of Hamas.
- 1:20:38Speaker 13: Yes.
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: Oh, gosh.
- 1:20:41Speaker 5: And this is, let's see, 30 years of doing it.
- 1:20:43Speaker 5: It's my second time through with this. And I remember
- 1:20:46Speaker 5: the first time, because they recycle the names if they
- 1:20:48Speaker 5: don't cause enough damage or get to a certain threshold.
- 1:20:52Speaker 5: I remember the first time years ago when we had ECS,
- 1:20:55Speaker 5: I had all kinds of trouble trying to pronounce it.
- 1:20:58Speaker 5: Now this time it just came naturally, rolled right off
- 1:21:00Speaker 5: the tongue.
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: Yeah, and they do this on purpose. They come up
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: with these names on purpose because they know that only
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: they can pronounce them.
- 1:21:08Speaker 5: Yeah this is true yeah because i've heard some butchering
- 1:21:12Speaker 5: of it even by meteorologists in the uh in the
- 1:21:14Speaker 5: community in the meteorological community kind of just doing all
- 1:21:18Speaker 5: different things with the word and it's like you know
- 1:21:19Speaker 5: the national hurricane center they have their home page and
- 1:21:22Speaker 5: they do have a a guide and they do have
- 1:21:24Speaker 5: the names and they do have the phonetic pronunciations of
- 1:21:27Speaker 5: that so you can go and actually see how you
- 1:21:31Speaker 5: should be saying it so it's he say yes but
- 1:21:33Speaker 5: there is new information now with the eight o'clock advisory
- 1:21:36Speaker 5: and it's not good um Storms increased its wind speed
- 1:21:41Speaker 5: now to a major hurricane with maximum sustained winds at
- 1:21:45Speaker 5: 120 miles per hour. The pressure has dropped. So with
- 1:21:49Speaker 5: tropical storms, hurricanes, pressure drops, wind speed coincides going up.
- 1:21:54Speaker 5: So that's what's been happening. And now we're looking at
- 1:21:57Speaker 5: a possible Category 3 major hurricane making landfall sometime late
- 1:22:02Speaker 5: today into early tonight. That's the second thing. Not only
- 1:22:05Speaker 5: is the wind speed increased, The forward speed may bring
- 1:22:07Speaker 5: it closer to landfall a little bit sooner, maybe by
- 1:22:11Speaker 5: a couple of hours. So instead of around 8 o'clock,
- 1:22:14Speaker 5: it might be a couple hours earlier than that central
- 1:22:17Speaker 5: time during the evening. So that's a couple of changes
- 1:22:20Speaker 5: that came with the gate o'clock update from the Hurricane
- 1:22:23Speaker 5: Center as we now have a major hurricane where winds
- 1:22:25Speaker 5: start at 111 miles per hour. It's now at 120
- 1:22:28Speaker 5: and a pressure of 959 millibars, which has been lower pressure.
- 1:22:33Speaker 5: As long as that pressure keeps dropping, The wind speed
- 1:22:37Speaker 5: around the center of that storm will continue to increase.
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:22:42Speaker 3: So imagine you're the president. You're going to the Georgia-Alabama game.
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: Huge. Going to be a great reception for him.
- 1:22:50Speaker 3: If that game goes on and there's devastation around, do
- 1:22:54Speaker 3: you go to the game or do you go out
- 1:22:56Speaker 3: to the devastation and help the people?
- 1:22:59Speaker 5: You probably go out to the devastation to help the people.
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: That's the right answer, right? Yeah, you got it. Very good.
- 1:23:07Speaker 1: Before your quick story, I think people in this area
- 1:23:11Speaker 1: want to know how this is going to affect them.
- 1:23:14Speaker 5: I think by the end of Sunday, we'll start to
- 1:23:16Speaker 5: get some rain in here, inch or less of rainfall.
- 1:23:19Speaker 5: I don't think we'll have a flood threat. There's a
- 1:23:21Speaker 5: minimal threat for that. And I don't think there's going
- 1:23:24Speaker 5: to be any wind to worry about.
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: Okay, real quick story.
- 1:23:27Speaker 5: It gets rained and then it goes away. All right,
- 1:23:28Speaker 5: quick story about football and college football. Two years ago,
- 1:23:31Speaker 5: everybody remembers Helene. We were in Clemson. The power was out.
- 1:23:34Speaker 5: I think two days before the football game, we were
- 1:23:39Speaker 5: out of power. Roads were closed. There were trees across roadways.
- 1:23:42Speaker 5: But you can bet you that they played that game
- 1:23:45Speaker 5: on that Saturday. So it's going to take an awful lot.
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: It's going to take a lot for this game to
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: get canceled.
- 1:23:52Speaker 5: I think the worst will be past.
- 1:23:53Speaker 1: That's college football down south. They're going to play no
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: matter what. Ray Stajic, WOR Weather Channel meteorologist. Thanks a lot.
- 1:23:59Speaker 1: Have a good weekend.
- 1:23:59Speaker 5: All right.
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: Let's squeeze in a couple talkbacks.
- 1:24:03Speaker 10: I don't know what Curtis is smoking. How are you
- 1:24:05Speaker 10: going to get into a building in New York City
- 1:24:09Speaker 10: to arrest a guy without some person in that building
- 1:24:15Speaker 10: giving him notice about it?
- 1:24:17Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: That is crazy.
- 1:24:20Speaker 3: Guy, they do it all the time. It's called the U.S.
- 1:24:23Speaker 3: Marshal Services. And they meet and then they raid every night.
- 1:24:28Speaker 1: Of the week.
- 1:24:29Speaker 17: Larry, it's a rare day when I agree with Curtis.
- 1:24:33Speaker 17: But on the topic of ICE, yes, they should not
- 1:24:36Speaker 17: be released into the population. They should be handed over.
- 1:24:40Speaker 17: But they are not. So in this case, two wrongs
- 1:24:44Speaker 17: do not make a right.
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: No, it's one huge wrong. And we wouldn't be in
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: this situation without that one wrong. So if one comes
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: after the other, yeah, you can go back to the
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: source and say, no, that's wrong. Now let's give away
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: some tickets.
- 1:25:01Speaker 12: Do you want to go to the movies?
- 1:25:02Speaker 10: Movies?

- 1:25:05Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: I told you I like the Italians. You want to
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: go right now?
- 1:25:10Speaker 9: No, of course not now. How about tomorrow?

- 1:25:57Speaker 8: Daria.
- 1:25:58Speaker 2: Good morning, guys.
- 1:25:58Speaker 9: Sunny and a little cooler today. We'll see a high
- 1:26:00Speaker 9: of 71 degrees. Tension in Marble Hill after a man
- 1:26:03Speaker 9: was shot and wounded yesterday by ICE agents. This man
- 1:26:07Speaker 9: lives there. I think it's horrifying.
- 1:26:08Speaker 6: This is a great neighborhood, and it's a community neighborhood.
- 1:26:12Speaker 9: This woman, I stand corrected. DHS says the man who
- 1:26:15Speaker 9: was shot is in the U.S.
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: Illegally.
- 1:26:17Speaker 9: And is a violent criminal and was trying to ram
- 1:26:19Speaker 9: agents with his car. The man's five-year-old son was with him.
- 1:26:22Speaker 9: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the execution of convicted Fort
- 1:26:26Speaker 9: Hood shooter Nadel Hassan by a firing squad will be
- 1:26:30Speaker 9: live-streamed on December 3rd. The former Army doctor killed 12 soldiers,
- 1:26:35Speaker 9: a civilian, and an unborn baby in the 2009 massacre.
- 1:26:38Speaker 9: There were more protests in support of Jane Doe, who
- 1:26:41Speaker 9: says she was gang-raped at a Cornell University fraternity house
- 1:26:45Speaker 9: in 2024. Part of what was a national day of
- 1:26:48Speaker 9: action yesterday, one of the demonstrations was at Columbia.
- 1:26:51Speaker 11: One professor said it's important to hold people accused of
- 1:26:54Speaker 11: sexual violence accountable.
- 1:26:56Speaker 12: For four decades, we've failed.
- 1:26:58Speaker 4: When I was their age, which was a long time ago,
- 1:27:00Speaker 4: we were having the same conversation.
- 1:27:02Speaker 11: The protest in Morningside Heights was just one of many
- 1:27:05Speaker 11: campus demonstrations happening as part of a national day of action.
- 1:27:09Speaker 11: Groups also gathered in Manhattan's Foley Square, wearing T-shirts and
- 1:27:13Speaker 11: holding signs reading, I am Jane Doe. Meanwhile, one of
- 1:27:17Speaker 11: the seven Cornell students named in a civil lawsuit is
- 1:27:20Speaker 11: fighting an attempt to install Attorney General Letitia James as
- 1:27:23Speaker 11: a special prosecutor. I'm Leslie Radabali, WOR News.

- 1:28:21Speaker 3: Gotta ask him what is this book tour michael mike
- 1:28:24Speaker 3: douglas is on michael douglas it's like i don't need
- 1:28:28Speaker 3: to know all this stuff.
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: Why oh why oh why oh.
- 1:28:32Speaker 3: Right on time joe neumeier and our movie guy.
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: Joe, you got to do me a solid.
- 1:28:40Speaker 3: Every day I'm scrolling and I see Hopalong Cassidy, Michael
- 1:28:44Speaker 3: Douglas going from one interview to another interview for his memoirs.
- 1:28:50Speaker 1: One hell of a ride. And what I can tell from.
- 1:28:54Speaker 3: The snippets is I would not want to be Catherine
- 1:28:57Speaker 3: Zeta-Jones or his kids. This guy, it's just one sexual
- 1:29:03Speaker 3: liaison after another sexual liaison. Then somebody asks him, well,
- 1:29:07Speaker 3: you know, you had throat cancer and you said it
- 1:29:09Speaker 3: was because of you know what?
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: And he went crazy.
- 1:29:11Speaker 3: It's sort of like you open up that Pandora's box guy.
- 1:29:14Speaker 3: then you might as well just deal with everything. I
- 1:29:17Speaker 3: feel like I need to take a hot shower after
- 1:29:20Speaker 3: dealing with this.
- 1:29:22Speaker 2: Well, that's certainly the case with all these guys, I
- 1:29:25Speaker 2: agree with you, who write these sort of, tell all
- 1:29:27Speaker 2: of these memoirs. It seems like he called, I mean,
- 1:29:30Speaker 2: from what I've read, he has called previous girlfriends, previous
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: women that he was with, and confirmed that it was
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: okay that he used their names or something in the book.
- 1:29:40Speaker 2: You know, the big one, of course, that people are
- 1:29:41Speaker 2: talking about is that he and Kathleen Turner... during the
- 1:29:44Speaker 2: filming of Romancing the Stone, which still remains such a
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: fun movie, right? And they're both great in it, and
- 1:29:49Speaker 2: she's gorgeous in it. But she was sort of, I
- 1:29:51Speaker 2: think her response was like, after 45 years, why do
- 1:29:54Speaker 2: you think anybody would care? Was, I think, her response
- 1:29:58Speaker 2: to him. Yeah, you know, I will say this about
- 1:30:02Speaker 2: Michael Douglas. I mean, that was always sort of part
- 1:30:04Speaker 2: of his image, and I think that for him, he's
- 1:30:07Speaker 2: kind of leaning into it, but I agree, it does
- 1:30:09Speaker 2: make you want to, you know, kind of, take a shower,
- 1:30:12Speaker 2: throw the book across the room, and say, you know what,
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: that's enough. Some things can remain secret. That's okay at
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: 82 years old, Michael. Keep some things to yourself.
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: Good idea. That's great advice. Let's talk about the movies
- 1:30:24Speaker 1: coming out, because I loved, loved, loved Social Network, the
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: beginning of Facebook, and Mark Zuckerberg when he was in
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: college starting it. I never, ever in a million years
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: thought there'd be a sequel to that.
- 1:30:37Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:30:37Speaker 1: How do you do that?
- 1:30:39Speaker 2: The thing that people have been saying, Larry, which is
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: sort of true, which is that, you know, we're sort
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: of living in that, in the sequel to The Social Network, right?
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: We're like, every day we're kind of dealing with new things.
- 1:30:50Speaker 2: And there's actually a film coming out called Artificial that
- 1:30:53Speaker 2: I think kind of deals with that, too. It kind
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: of deals with Sam Altman and Anthropic, and that's coming
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: out later in the year. We'll be talking about it.
- 1:30:59Speaker 2: But this film, I'm giving this film a solid three stars.
- 1:31:01Speaker 2: It's written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, who won an
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: Oscar for his screenplay for Social Network. And it does
- 1:31:07Speaker 2: a lot of the same things really well, which is
- 1:31:10Speaker 2: it sort of kind of figures out why we're sort
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: of living in this thing. Like, you know, in the
- 1:31:15Speaker 2: social network, it was, you know, why did this kid,
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: Mark Zuckerberg, create this website? And it turns out to
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: be kind of for pretty creepy reasons. This one sort
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: of says, how are we in this situation that we're
- 1:31:28Speaker 2: in now where there's so much disinformation? There's so many
- 1:31:31Speaker 2: things kind of going. And you think like Facebook, oh,
- 1:31:32Speaker 2: and now it's called Meta. You think, oh, Facebook is
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: just about people connecting up with their high school pals.
- 1:31:37Speaker 2: It's not that. And the movie sort of underscores that.
- 1:31:41Speaker 2: And it also does something really interesting that I wasn't anticipating.
- 1:31:44Speaker 2: It kind of turns, it's kind of split into two sections.
- 1:31:48Speaker 2: One is a reporter who's talking to a whistleblower about
- 1:31:52Speaker 2: the way that the algorithms work. And that part is
- 1:31:54Speaker 2: really pretty good. And it's kind of like a 70s thriller.
- 1:31:57Speaker 2: It's a little like All the President's Men or something.
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: So it's got this sort of 70s media thriller thing
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: going on. Then the other half of it is as Zuckerberg,
- 1:32:05Speaker 2: who's now played by Jeremy Strong from Succession, as he's
- 1:32:08Speaker 2: preparing to kind of give some testimony to Congress. And
- 1:32:12Speaker 2: he comes off really robotic and scary. And while that's
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: also kind of an interesting part of the movie, it's
- 1:32:18Speaker 2: sort of not telling us anything we don't know.
- 1:32:21Speaker 13: Uh.
- 1:32:21Speaker 2: billboard is really great and they're actually a sort of
- 1:32:23Speaker 2: one of the as a uh... kind of analyst that uh...
- 1:32:26Speaker 2: counselor comes in the kind of into the book of
- 1:32:28Speaker 2: the bite of the previous uh... previous employee living at
- 1:32:31Speaker 2: three stars it's interesting it's not is not the social
- 1:32:34Speaker 2: network though it doesn't have that that really kind of
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: propulsive crazy kind of energy that that movie had great
- 1:32:40Speaker 2: score great performances Everyone's really good in the movie. It's
- 1:32:43Speaker 2: just a little bit of like, you know, okay, now what?
- 1:32:47Speaker 2: That we're kind of dealing with. So three stars for
- 1:32:49Speaker 2: The Social Reckoning. Good, but not great.
- 1:32:51Speaker 3: Now, Jo Neumeier, she's one of our own from Brooklyn
- 1:32:54Speaker 3: and Hathaway. She had taken a bit of a hiatus.
- 1:32:57Speaker 3: You know, she wasn't doing films. I wonder what happened.
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: This year, five releases in one year? How does that happen?
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: And pregnant? Five in one year?
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: Yeah. Five in one year. Well, sometimes, you know, you
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: kind of film things maybe like a year and a
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: half ago, and then it happens to come out in
- 1:33:17Speaker 2: the same week. But I think maybe in her head,
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: people have said, like, maybe she knew she was going
- 1:33:21Speaker 2: to be taking a break off to have another kid,
- 1:33:24Speaker 2: and so she wanted to get as many films out
- 1:33:26Speaker 2: there as she could. I will say Verity, which came
- 1:33:30Speaker 2: out last week and was number one, and I think
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: it was actually kind of fun. She doesn't do much.
- 1:33:35Speaker 2: She kind of lays there because she's supposed to be
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: semi-comatose in the movie. So she gives a good performance,
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: but she also kind of, a lot of the movies,
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: she's sort of relaxing. So maybe that was sort of
- 1:33:45Speaker 2: the appeal to Verity, too. Oh, I can be in
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: this movie, but I can really just be in a
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: hospital bed for the majority of the movie. But the
- 1:33:52Speaker 2: mystery is, does she really need to be in the
- 1:33:53Speaker 2: hospital bed? So maybe she saw that one. That would
- 1:33:57Speaker 2: be kind of like a little vacation. I could just
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: take a nap and get a paycheck for it.
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: That's a great plan. Earlier this week, a great actress died,
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: Eva Marie Saint, and I'm sure you have a lot
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: to say about her.
- 1:34:11Speaker 2: I do. You know, she was a very terrific and
- 1:34:14Speaker 2: interesting actress from the 1950s who kind of went on
- 1:34:17Speaker 2: to not do as much, but how important she was
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: to 1950s movies, specifically for two movies, of course. One
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: is On the Waterfront, which she got Best Supporting Actress for.
- 1:34:27Speaker 2: She plays the sister of a dock worker who's been killed,
- 1:34:30Speaker 2: and she begins a romance with Marlon Brando. And that
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: movie is really important in so many ways. And she
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: was part of that new school of actors, Brando Montgomery-Cliff,
- 1:34:40Speaker 2: Rod Steiger, and those guys. She was sort of a
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: female equivalent of that, and she was really, really terrific
- 1:34:46Speaker 2: in that movie. And then, of course, one of my
- 1:34:48Speaker 2: favorite films, North by Northwest, my favorite Hitchcock film. I
- 1:34:51Speaker 2: often have it running on my DVR or on my
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: DVD player in my office because I just feel like
- 1:34:58Speaker 2: there's nothing better than having North by Northwest on in
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: the background. She's fantastic. She's Eve Kendall in that movie.
- 1:35:04Speaker 2: She's a spy, and she kind of has to get
- 1:35:06Speaker 2: Cary Grant in and out of trouble because he doesn't
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: know she's a spy. Maybe I've just ruined it if
- 1:35:10Speaker 2: anybody's seen it.
- 1:35:12Speaker 1: If they haven't seen it by now, it's on them.
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: Don't worry about it.
- 1:35:16Speaker 2: Right, right. 68-year spoiler alert.
- 1:35:19Speaker 1: And just one update real quick.
- 1:35:21Speaker 20: They're still protesting at the Kips Bay theaters every day.
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: I've never seen this.
- 1:35:28Speaker 20: There's riots in Paris and there's demonstrations at the Kips
- 1:35:32Speaker 20: Bay movie theater right by NYU Medical Center.
- 1:35:37Speaker 2: Isn't that great, though? People are saying, don't take away
- 1:35:40Speaker 2: this movie theater. And it's not even like, what I
- 1:35:42Speaker 2: love about that, too, is it's not sort of like
- 1:35:44Speaker 2: this little boutique art house theater or something. It's a
- 1:35:47Speaker 2: big chain theater, but it's the only one in that
- 1:35:50Speaker 2: section of town. And people are saying, you know what,
- 1:35:52Speaker 2: we've got enough CBSes, we've got enough Dwayne Reads, whatever.
- 1:35:55Speaker 2: Keep that movie theater. It's so important. People with kids,
- 1:35:58Speaker 2: they can go there with their kids on Saturday afternoons.
- 1:36:01Speaker 2: I support that protest 100%. Keep going with it, right?
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: Oh, they have Joe Neumeier. You've got to come out
- 1:36:07Speaker 1: here and protest. To the barricades, Joe. To the barricades.
