  Speaker 4: Curtis, what's up my brother?

  Speaker 3: Noll?
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: I just depend on the New York side.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Ah, okay, Curtis.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: Good, I'm great to see it down shop on the
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: dial there, very good. I was incorrect. I thought Alex
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: Bennett would have been the name you were you were
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: looking for.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: You are absolutely correct, Alex Bennett evening show hosts at
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: WMC A Bob Grant was Drive Time. You couldn't have
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: been any more different, Yeah.
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: He Courtie, Listen, I'm trying. I know you're busy there.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: If I want to ask this gum, you know why
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: I was a little bewildered. I used to be in
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Manhattan Detectives. We had a homicide in nineteen ninety two,
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: fourteenth Street in the hole on the fourth train, a
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: young man, a hard working, stiff African American, Jerry Robinson,
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: on his way home at eleven o'clock at night. He
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: gets held up in the hall at Fourteenth Street. He
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: pulls out a twenty five pops. Two guys kills one
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: of them. The third piece took off. They called him
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: the Blackbernie gets Barry Slotnick represented him at arrangements, and
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: then an eighteen b attorney took it from there on.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: He took a fleet and I didn't do any time.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: It was it. It never got well. It hit the
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: paper that night, drove down in Raymonds, but afterwards it
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: never got any plate. I was wondering if you knew
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: about that.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: No, I do because I followed those cases. It was
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: really the team that you had. Barry Slotnik was the
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: lead attorney, and I'm trying to remember Miller, I think
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: was his partner.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: He had to go, No, Baker, Baker was his partner.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: A great team, and they made themselves available for those
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: kind of cases.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: More often than not.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: It was black victims fighting back against black assailians. But
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: you see, it didn't have the ammonium bleach. It didn't
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: have what you needed. White versus black. I mean that
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: got you the headlines that kept the headlines going for days.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: It was black on black crime. Nothing a mere mention.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: By the way, you mentioned Alex Bennett. He was the
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: tokshow host at WMCA at night. His theme song was
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: do You Want to Be a Bird? A Class sixth
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: song from Easy Rider, and man, he would talk about
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: coming from concerts and he would be like be doing
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: therapy on himself before this guy did it Seagull remember
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: a Channel seven? Oh does anybody remember Seagull? I'm just
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: gonna give you a little hint there. And he would
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: do the same thing self there. And this guy supported
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: radical causes. Do you know who ended up taking over
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: the apartment of Alex Bennett, who went back to San
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Francisco where he was from, to Radio Camel where they
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: spun stacks of wax, did a little bit of talk.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Bernard Getz, who's still in that apartment today right off
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: of sixth Avenue and fourteenth Street. Wow, the synergy is happening.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Let's go if we can to Stella in close. Your
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: turn to be heard here at seven ten wr Stella.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: Hello, listen to Curtis. Glad to hear you back, and
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: I'm glad to hear your voice. I'm very concerned and
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: so are a lot of people in my neighborhood and
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: queens about Mendanni taking over privately owned homes. Do you
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: know anything about that?
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Well, it's not just Mandami, this was the city of Yes.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I warned everybody about it. Eric Adams got windined in
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: pocket lined by the developers and realtors, as did Andrew
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Evilize Cuomo. So they now have the authority because the
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: people voted this into the law because everybody's so affordable housing,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: and they thought, oh wow, affordable housing.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: I'm for that. No, no, no, no no.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: So if you happen to live in a residential community
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: and this is coming to a neighborhood near you. They
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: call it up zoning, density housing. Kathy Holkol tried that
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: and realize that wasn't going to work out to get
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: her elected against leez Elden, so she dropped it like
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: hot rock. But the whole idea was build high rise housing,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: claim it's affordable near train stations along ther Metro North,
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: and people in residential area say, oh no, no, no,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: no no, we don't need any density housing.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: We don't need any up zoning.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: There's zoning, there's elected officials, there's a process.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: So Kathy Hoko recognized that was a third rail.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: But in New York City, because the issue became affordable housing,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: costs of living, they've pushed through this mandate that gives
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: developers and realtors the opportunity to come into your neighborhoods
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: in the outer boroughs, whether you live in the Bronx,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Staten Island, Queens of Brooklyn, and.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: They can come into your neighborhood.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: They don't have to go through any zoning regulations any longer,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: they don't have to meet with the community board, they
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: don't have to even meet with the local elected officials
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: if they want to put up a forty story high
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: rise by the way, with no parking and burden your infrastructure.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: They have a right to do it. They've been given
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: a green light. Worse yet, they're putting up these lithium
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: ion battery warehouses, which is a real danger to the community.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: They're in residential areas. They're supposed to be in industrial areas,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: but then again, residential property is cheaper than industrial property.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Thirty eight in.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Staten Island, twelve in Brooklyn, eight in Queens formed the
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Bronx none in Manhattan because we don't have enough electricity.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: And wait if you think it's bad now, artificial intelligence
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: is going to need double the amount of electricity and
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: double the amount of water to run their filing centers.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: You haven't heard much about that, have you? Of course,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: not talk too much of talk radios. Are you you
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: see all those Somalian themes in Minnesota?
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Could you repeat each other anymore? Like parrots?
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: How about actually talking about subject matter that affects everybody's.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Live And these.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: AI artificial intelligence filing cell centers that are gonna be
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: built in a neighborhood near you, and they require twice
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: the amount of electricity that's available on the grid.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Twice the amount of water that you don't even have
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: access to. And guess who's gonna pay for all of that?
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: You what is anybody telling you that? Of course not.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Oh and you don't want to miss Friday my annual
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: tribute to Bernard McGirt, best thing that ever happened at
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: to our radio. Oh my god, the guy had to
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: take so much abuse for from don Imus, without which
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: don would never have been able to function. And also
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: a plead to all of you to make sure whatever
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: men folks can run across this New Year's holiday, you
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: let them know to get that PSA simple prick of
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: the finger blood test. If only Bernard McGirk had done that,
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: he would not have died a horrible death from prostate cancer.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Look I had Stage four or I survive that some don't.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: The test in most instances will help eliminate it.
