Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Wow, another weekend on Sunday. Rain, rain, go away. Saturday
- 0:06Speaker 1: night into Sunday. But Natalie, I know you and Larry
- 0:11Speaker 1: were involved in that mile, that Fifth Avenue mile race
- 0:17Speaker 1: that iHeart sponsors along with the Roadrunners Club of New York.
- 0:23Speaker 1: What was it like there? Because I know there was
- 0:25Speaker 1: intermittent rain here in New York City. It either flooded
- 0:29Speaker 1: momentarily and then it came down and then it stopped.
- 0:32Speaker 2: So did you get drenched? It was raining. Definitely raining
- 0:36Speaker 2: the entire time. Was it raining men? It was raining
- 0:40Speaker 2: men and women. And runners and runners and runners. It
- 0:44Speaker 2: was great.
- 0:44Speaker 3: It was the New Balance Fifth Avenue Mile. It's the
- 0:47Speaker 3: second year that we've broadcasted from there. Second year it
- 0:49Speaker 3: rained too, so I don't know if it's us. But
- 0:52Speaker 3: the race went on. It was a great day. Wouldn't
- 0:55Speaker 3: say the same for some poor runners in New.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Jersey yesterday, though. And Paramus. You guys see that?
- 1:02Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Did you see what went on there?
- 1:04Speaker 1: The half marathon in Paramus. Eight inches of rain had fallen.
- 1:10Speaker 1: So most of the half marathoners decided, no, we're not
- 1:13Speaker 1: going to drown. There was this one intrepid guy who decided, no, no, no, no.
- 1:18Speaker 1: I'm not going to let the flooding waters that came
- 1:20Speaker 1: up to his navel get Prevent him from finishing the
- 1:25Speaker 1: half marathon. I mean, it was raining in buckets, Karamis,
- 1:29Speaker 1: in Patterson, just a deluge. But this guy was intent.
- 1:34Speaker 1: He could have gone underwater. That could have swept him away.
- 1:38Speaker 1: But he decided, no, no, no. I came out to
- 1:40Speaker 1: run a half marathon. I'm going to run a half marathon.
- 1:42Speaker 1: So it was much worse in New Jersey, much worse
- 1:47Speaker 1: in Connecticut than you were facing. In fact, in Connecticut itself,
- 1:51Speaker 1: they had the worst flooding in three decades in Fairfield
- 1:55Speaker 1: County and Westport, right on the Long Island Sound.
- 1:57Speaker 2: People were trapped in their homes in vehicles.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Paterson new jersey trapped in vehicles and homes up to
- 2:05Speaker 1: their windows wayne new jersey this is the 10th incident
- 2:11Speaker 1: of extreme weather that has led to flooding uh since
- 2:15Speaker 1: right before the memorial day weekend we've never had that
- 2:17Speaker 1: before and officials are scratching their heads and wondering what
- 2:21Speaker 1: are they going to do in case this returns all
- 2:24Speaker 1: over again with the start of spring into uh summer
- 2:28Speaker 1: and fall. But let me get back to that Fifth
- 2:30Speaker 1: Avenue mile. That's just a straight sprint, unlike most miles
- 2:36Speaker 1: where you run on an oval.
- 2:37Speaker 2: So, Larry, who is it? It's my turn? Yes.
- 2:42Speaker 4: Okay, good.
- 2:43Speaker 2: Who is the winner? Who is the winner?
- 2:46Speaker 4: The winner was a kid from Villanova who just smashed,
- 2:52Speaker 4: I think it was close to being a record. I'm
- 2:55Speaker 4: pretty sure. It was close to being– did I just
- 2:58Speaker 4: cut out there for a second?
- 2:59Speaker 2: Yes, you did. Just briefly. Just briefly.
- 3:03Speaker 4: Let me start with the woman, though. Gemma Ricci won
- 3:06Speaker 4: for the women, and she won kind of going away.
- 3:10Speaker 4: But this kid, Langone, from Villanova, is a trip. I
- 3:16Speaker 4: will tell you something. Not only did he win the race,
- 3:19Speaker 4: but he was trailing a little bit. You could see
- 3:21Speaker 4: he was tracking the leaders. He shoots ahead, right? He
- 3:25Speaker 4: has his kick. And then another guy, the guy that
- 3:30Speaker 4: everybody thought was going to win it all from Great Britain,
- 3:35Speaker 4: shoots ahead of him. And then Langone has another level
- 3:39Speaker 4: and shoots ahead again and ends up winning the race.
- 3:44Speaker 4: And he ran. The rain had stopped, but it was
- 3:47Speaker 4: still a wet surface. He ran 345 for the mile. Now,
- 3:53Speaker 4: as you pointed out, the world record is 343.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Just set by another Brit. The original one broke the
- 3:59Speaker 1: four-minute mile, was Roger Bannister, 54. Josh Kerr just set
- 4:03Speaker 1: the new record, another Brit, 343. He attributed it to
- 4:08Speaker 1: his new sneakers, state-of-the-art sneakers. But boy, that's 350. You
- 4:15Speaker 1: said this young man from Villanova ran it at what? 345.
- 4:19Speaker 2: 345 in the rain.
- 4:23Speaker 4: And he was pushed. I mean, he definitely kicked at
- 4:26Speaker 4: the end. But to me, this kid, he's so fun
- 4:31Speaker 4: to listen to. He's so fun to watch. He's just
- 4:36Speaker 4: out of college. I mean, just out of college. Has
- 4:38Speaker 4: his hair a couple different colors, has these big earrings on.
- 4:42Speaker 4: Gen Z is going to love him. If he qualifies
- 4:45Speaker 4: for the Olympics, it's going to be fun to see
- 4:48Speaker 4: him go because He is going to be something, somebody
- 4:53Speaker 4: to watch, and somebody that's going to be followed. Trust me,
- 4:57Speaker 4: he's going to also get a fan base.
- 5:00Speaker 1: You know, it's amazing that Villanova for many years had
- 5:04Speaker 1: great track stars. I think their coach was Jumbo Elliott.
- 5:10Speaker 1: He was world-renowned. Everybody wanted to come to Villanova. People
- 5:13Speaker 1: from Africa, people from Europe, they wanted to train under him.
- 5:17Speaker 1: You know, you had the Penn Relays, which Villanova was
- 5:20Speaker 1: always great at. Four by 100, four by mile. That
- 5:24Speaker 1: means four separate milers would run.
- 5:27Speaker 4: Well, they had the guy that ran the first four-minute mile, right?
- 5:30Speaker 4: Marty LaCourie, wasn't that it?
- 5:31Speaker 1: Marty LaCourie, yeah. Actually, the first under four-minute mile was
- 5:36Speaker 1: Jim Ryan. who was in high school at the time
- 5:39Speaker 1: before he went to the University of Kansas. He did that,
- 5:43Speaker 1: I think, in 1964.
- 5:46Speaker 2: 351. 351.
- 5:49Speaker 1: But I'm just saying, they just keep driving the numbers
- 5:52Speaker 1: down and down. When I was running track in high school,
- 5:55Speaker 1: which I hated, you had to do it between football
- 5:57Speaker 1: and baseball, the quarter mile became the sprint. You know,
- 6:02Speaker 1: you had the 100 meters, you had 220, you had 440.
- 6:05Speaker 1: 440 became a sprint. Now, the mile is a sprint.
- 6:10Speaker 1: I'm sure what you saw take place on Fifth Avenue
- 6:13Speaker 1: yesterday was basically a sprint from beginning to end.
- 6:16Speaker 4: Yeah, it was, although there was a guy that got
- 6:19Speaker 4: out there way out in front, and I think he
- 6:22Speaker 4: was going. They did something new this year. For the
- 6:25Speaker 4: half-mile mark, you get $ 1, 000. And so this guy seems like,
- 6:30Speaker 4: I'm in it for the $ 1, 000. I know I can't
- 6:32Speaker 4: win this race, but I'm going to run a half
- 6:35Speaker 4: mile as fast as I can.
- 6:36Speaker 2: And he did. He's the rabbit. He's the rabbit.
- 6:39Speaker 4: Everybody was just trailing him. But he was way back
- 6:42Speaker 4: in the pack as it ended. Just looking at Marty LaCour,
- 6:46Speaker 4: he had four U.S. records. But you're right.
- 6:49Speaker 2: Jim Ryan was the first one.
- 6:50Speaker 1: But Villanova was unbelievable because, remember, you had your Penn
- 6:53Speaker 1: Relays there that teams from all over the United States
- 6:57Speaker 1: would come to compete. Villanova was always like number one.
- 7:00Speaker 4: Villanova still is. I didn't know this because I haven't
- 7:03Speaker 4: been following Villanova track, but we had Tim McLoone with
- 7:06Speaker 4: us who follows this all the time. And I said
- 7:08Speaker 4: to Tim, is Villanova, this track program still doing well?
- 7:12Speaker 2: He goes, oh yeah.
- 7:13Speaker 4: Oh, really, really well. They're one of the top in
- 7:15Speaker 4: the country still. So yeah, they still have a formidable...
- 7:19Speaker 4: Track program, and this guy, Marco Langone, or Langoon, I'm
- 7:23Speaker 4: not sure how you pronounce it, but he is going
- 7:27Speaker 4: to be fun. He's going to be really fun. He's
- 7:30Speaker 4: got a huge personality.
- 7:32Speaker 1: But the race was sponsored by the New York Road
- 7:36Speaker 1: Runners Track Club.
- 7:37Speaker 5: Yep.
- 7:37Speaker 2: Also had groups, other.
- 7:39Speaker 1: Groups, that weren't as proficient as those young men, right?
- 7:43Speaker 5: Right.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Different age categories. How did they handle the rain and running?
- 7:48Speaker 4: They didn't seem to be bothered by it. It's funny
- 7:50Speaker 4: when you talk to all of the runners, which I'm
- 7:52Speaker 4: not a runner, so I don't know. When you talk
- 7:54Speaker 4: to the runners, they enjoy running in the rain. They
- 7:58Speaker 4: like running in the rain. And so unless it gets,
- 8:02Speaker 4: they said, if there's lightning or there's wind, wind is
- 8:05Speaker 4: the biggest problem, but rain feels good when you're running.
- 8:08Speaker 4: And it's funny because we ended up with a conversation
- 8:11Speaker 4: among track runners and they, one said, well, wait, except,
- 8:14Speaker 4: except for the socks. That's the only problem when your,
- 8:17Speaker 4: when your socks get wet. But other than that, it's,
- 8:20Speaker 4: it's really good. So no, they were incredible. And let
- 8:23Speaker 4: me tell you something that, that is the most special
- 8:26Speaker 4: part of the fifth Avenue mile. And it's seeing the
- 8:30Speaker 4: kids run, seeing people where this is their moment. You're
- 8:34Speaker 4: seeing people, they have a seniors run. They have, uh,
- 8:38Speaker 4: by the way, a lot of the Broadway stars come
- 8:41Speaker 4: out and run and they do it for charity. Uh,
- 8:45Speaker 4: Broadway Cares. And this year, by the way, it's a
- 8:50Speaker 4: big deal among them, the FDNY and the NYPD run.
- 8:54Speaker 4: And it was the NYPD that just– they had three
- 8:59Speaker 4: of the top four, was that? Yeah, three of the
- 9:01Speaker 4: top four.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Yeah, well, they're used to chasing thieves, so they're well-tuned
- 9:07Speaker 1: to that. Although it makes sense what you said about
- 9:09Speaker 1: liking a run in the rain. One of the top
- 9:11Speaker 1: track clubs in America is University of Oregon. They used
- 9:15Speaker 1: to have Steve Prefontaine who set all kinds of records.
- 9:19Speaker 1: That's how Nike came about in Oregon. And Eugene was
- 9:23Speaker 1: from the performances at the University of Oregon because they
- 9:26Speaker 1: were trying to figure out what kind of sneakers to
- 9:28Speaker 1: make for rain, for non-rain. Because they have different sneakers
- 9:32Speaker 1: for different occasions. It's become very scientific. But the fact
- 9:35Speaker 1: that they are running miles now at 343 345 is unbelievable.
- 9:42Speaker 4: I will tell you the new york roadrunners their big
- 9:44Speaker 4: thing right now is accessibility they want to make sure
- 9:47Speaker 4: that these races and their events are accessible to everyone
- 9:51Speaker 4: they don't want just the stars they just don't they
- 9:53Speaker 4: don't want broadway stars they don't want any of the
- 9:56Speaker 4: stars the racing stars they want to make sure that
- 9:58Speaker 4: everybody's able to get involved and and the mile is
- 10:03Speaker 4: one of the ones that they really hold as near
- 10:06Speaker 4: and dear because not everybody can run a marathon no
- 10:09Speaker 4: but you can get in this race and it doesn't
- 10:11Speaker 4: matter how fast you run just so you finish you
- 10:14Speaker 4: know you finish and everybody celebrates you and there's Things
- 10:17Speaker 4: going off. It's really nice. It is a tremendous event
- 10:21Speaker 4: to watch, and I was proud to be a part
- 10:24Speaker 4: of it. Natalie does a great job, by the way.
- 10:26Speaker 4: I was in front of the microphone. But let me
- 10:28Speaker 4: just tell you, Natalie sits next to me, and everything
- 10:32Speaker 4: I'm about to say next, she has on a card.
- 10:37Speaker 4: They don't trust me with a script. It's like an
- 10:40Speaker 4: index card. Here's the next thing you're going to say.
- 10:43Speaker 4: Here's the next thing you're going to say. But it's
- 10:45Speaker 4: a well-oiled machine from behind.
- 10:47Speaker 2: The booth in the street. Well, great job.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Great job, Larry and Natalie, and also our whole iHeart
- 10:54Speaker 1: team that was out there. is working with the New
- 10:56Speaker 1: York Road Runners to make this a success each and
- 10:59Speaker 1: every year. How many years are we going to be
- 11:01Speaker 1: involved with them in these races?
- 11:03Speaker 2: I hope for a long, long time. I really do.
- 11:06Speaker 3: But we got the marathon coming up in now 48 days.
- 11:09Speaker 2: I know. 48 days.
- 11:11Speaker 6: I know.
- 11:11Speaker 4: That's intense. I love the New York City Marathon, and
- 11:15Speaker 4: for the same reason. Well, up next, my passion, as
- 11:19Speaker 4: you know, my wife's passion, Nancy. But in the slope,
- 11:23Speaker 4: Park Slope, New Yorkers are looking for a missing bodega kitten.
- 11:29Speaker 4: And boy, it really has brought the community out as
- 11:32Speaker 4: a whole to find that missing kitten.
- 11:34Speaker 2: Plus, a chance to see Richard Marks at 825. It's
- 11:39Speaker 2: perfectly imperfect. Curtis Lewa and Larry Minty in the morning.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Guaranteed human.
- 11:45Speaker 5: On 710WOR.
- 11:48Speaker 1: So with the fear, fright, hysteria, and what some people
- 11:53Speaker 1: are calling hype, two of the major CEOs of AI
- 11:58Speaker 1: companies who are in the lead in Silicon Valley in
- 12:00Speaker 1: developing this technology has said, oh my God, we've had
- 12:06Speaker 1: some situations occur that could be quite frightening if we
- 12:10Speaker 1: don't put the brakes on, if we don't slow down
- 12:13Speaker 1: the process. And we want government to get involved. We
- 12:16Speaker 1: want government to put up guardrails. We want government to
- 12:19Speaker 1: set up a system that is going to monitor the development.
- 12:23Speaker 1: Others have said, Larry, that the only reason they're saying
- 12:26Speaker 1: that is they're so far ahead in the American development
- 12:29Speaker 1: that they want to keep any competition in America or
- 12:33Speaker 1: in other places behind them because they are so far ahead.
- 12:36Speaker 1: But some of the things that have been described in
- 12:39Speaker 1: the last week could be pretty frightening if, in fact,
- 12:43Speaker 1: they potentially cannot be reined in. So you had that
- 12:47Speaker 1: one anthropic engineer, J.P. Coxon, who worked for AI, resigned,
- 12:53Speaker 1: saying that two leading AI labs were in deep concern
- 12:57Speaker 1: because of the escape of the AI agents that were
- 13:02Speaker 1: in these silos, who all of a sudden got out
- 13:06Speaker 1: started communicating with one another.
- 13:08Speaker 2: It's almost like they broke out of there.
- 13:10Speaker 1: They had a language of their own and they hacked
- 13:14Speaker 1: into a site.
- 13:17Speaker 2: What is that?
- 13:17Speaker 1: Happy faces or something like that. Hugging faces. And nobody
- 13:22Speaker 1: knew about it until it was too late. And then
- 13:25Speaker 1: there was another situation that occurred over in Germany. So
- 13:28Speaker 1: they're basically shooting up the SOS, the warning signs and,
- 13:35Speaker 1: But there's like a split bill on this. The president
- 13:37Speaker 1: over in Ireland has said, no, no, no, no, we
- 13:39Speaker 1: can't slow down because if we slow down, then all
- 13:41Speaker 1: of a sudden Red China will win this battle. Bernie Sanders,
- 13:46Speaker 1: who has led the progressives, the far left, has said, no,
- 13:48Speaker 1: we need to stop it right now. And Barack Obama
- 13:52Speaker 1: has emerged. He was at a fundraiser on Thursday night
- 13:54Speaker 1: with Hakeem Jeffries and other sort of moderate Democrats.
- 13:58Speaker 2: And he was saying, no, no, no, no.
- 13:59Speaker 1: It's like half and half. There's a lot of good here,
- 14:02Speaker 1: but we got to rein in the potential bad. So
- 14:05Speaker 1: you almost got like three different lanes. But the fear, fright,
- 14:09Speaker 1: and hysteria are massive now. And the question is, is
- 14:13Speaker 1: it being hyped for the corporate game?
- 14:16Speaker 4: I don't know. And I don't know if that's true.
- 14:19Speaker 4: I do know that there's some real fear from some
- 14:23Speaker 4: people that are very wise and can actually change things.
- 14:27Speaker 4: Like Daria Amodi. the chief executive of Anthropic, published a
- 14:32Speaker 4: letter saying that while he believes AI could bring vast
- 14:37Speaker 4: benefits to the world, he said it's advancing too quick
- 14:42Speaker 4: of a pace. And then open AI, Sam Altman and
- 14:46Speaker 4: Elon Musk quickly agreed. But you mentioned the guy that's
- 14:50Speaker 4: getting all of the play, Jacob Coxon. a former Anthropic
- 14:56Speaker 4: employee who was very happy that his former boss came
- 15:01Speaker 4: out and said something, but he was on the national
- 15:04Speaker 4: news now. Everybody was trying to search him down. He's
- 15:07Speaker 4: been on the national news saying, look, I'm not saying
- 15:11Speaker 4: to stop it. I know the benefits of AI, but
- 15:15Speaker 4: we really have to slow things down.
- 15:18Speaker 6: This is a substantial step towards what I was talking about,
- 15:22Speaker 6: needing some sort of slowdown between the people building the
- 15:25Speaker 6: different AIs. Although the one thing it's maybe missing is,
- 15:28Speaker 6: in terms of the current proposal, is more engagement with China.
- 15:34Speaker 5: Right.
- 15:35Speaker 4: The Chinese thing is the thing that Donald Trump is
- 15:39Speaker 4: so worried about. Because no matter what we do here,
- 15:42Speaker 4: AI is going to thrive because China is growing. quickly
- 15:47Speaker 4: trying to catch up to us when it comes to AI.
- 15:50Speaker 4: But Coxon went on to talk about, to try to
- 15:53Speaker 4: explain to the common man exactly how dangerous it is.
- 15:58Speaker 4: Like we would not just give carte blanche to anyone
- 16:02Speaker 4: else or anything.
- 16:04Speaker 6: I think the concept of building a super intelligence is, well,
- 16:08Speaker 6: it's been likened to, to summoning an alien species. So
- 16:12Speaker 6: I think, uh, Thinking about it in terms of an
- 16:15Speaker 6: alien mind that we don't fully understand is pretty terrifying,
- 16:20Speaker 6: even without any concrete scenario.
- 16:22Speaker 4: And just giving it the keys to everything. Just being
- 16:25Speaker 4: able to say, here, you know what? We're going to
- 16:26Speaker 4: open up all these companies. We're going to open up
- 16:28Speaker 4: all these governments. We're going to open up everything to
- 16:31Speaker 4: you when we're not sure if it has, as my
- 16:36Speaker 4: son loves to say, sentience all the time, which means
- 16:39Speaker 4: it has human-like abilities, even though it's not human. We're
- 16:44Speaker 4: giving it to something we don't know where it's going
- 16:48Speaker 4: to go. So everybody at this point is talking about guardrails,
- 16:52Speaker 4: even a moratorium.
- 16:54Speaker 6: It's definitely physically possible to implement a ban on artificial
- 16:57Speaker 6: superintelligence if there was cooperation between all the countries. Whether
- 17:02Speaker 6: or not an actual ban is a good idea is
- 17:05Speaker 6: up for discussion.
- 17:06Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there's no way he's going to get
- 17:09Speaker 4: a national ban because we understand the importance of AI
- 17:12Speaker 4: and it's being used too much right now, not just
- 17:14Speaker 4: by everyday citizens, but by the governments of the world.
- 17:18Speaker 4: So I don't think that there's going to be a
- 17:20Speaker 4: ban even in the short term. But Donald Trump was
- 17:23Speaker 4: asked it about a lot, a lot this weekend.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Whoever wins, AI wins.
- 17:28Speaker 6: And we can put guardrails, we can do this and that,
- 17:31Speaker 6: but I think you have a lot of negative forces
- 17:32Speaker 6: that are bringing it up that.
- 17:35Speaker 4: We shouldn't be bringing it up. The competition at this point, Curtis,
- 17:39Speaker 4: between countries, especially between China and us, is so big
- 17:45Speaker 4: and it's so vicious and so fierce that I don't
- 17:48Speaker 4: think anything's going to slow that down.
- 17:50Speaker 1: Well, you had the three prime figures come out over
- 17:54Speaker 1: the weekend. As you had mentioned, the CEO of Anthropic,
- 17:57Speaker 1: he's a Democrat. He had supported Biden and Harris. But
- 18:01Speaker 1: then Sam Altman, who is the CEO of OpenAI. Remember,
- 18:06Speaker 1: he initially was a Democrat, and then Peter Thiel brought
- 18:10Speaker 1: him over to the Trump side. He was very supportive
- 18:12Speaker 1: of Trump. And then, of course, Elon Musk. We know
- 18:15Speaker 1: he's a big Trumper. But all three of them agreed.
- 18:18Speaker 1: All three concurred. So although the president may not get
- 18:22Speaker 1: along with the CEO of Anthropic because they're different politically,
- 18:27Speaker 1: He may not be sure of Sam Altman because he
- 18:29Speaker 1: had been a Democrat who then converted when Peter Thiel said, hey,
- 18:33Speaker 1: I don't know, we need to be supporting Trump. But
- 18:36Speaker 1: Elon Musk has been somebody who has given advice to
- 18:41Speaker 1: the president. So I think it's incumbent upon the president
- 18:45Speaker 1: to summon together the leaders of the AI community and
- 18:50Speaker 1: to have a discussion about the pros and cons, because
- 18:54Speaker 1: now If you just look at the headlines, which are
- 18:58Speaker 1: very dystopian, the fear, fright, and hysteria could easily start
- 19:04Speaker 1: spreading through the population. We already have the AI data
- 19:07Speaker 1: filing centers, which the population is opposed to, especially in
- 19:12Speaker 1: their communities, 70 to 30. And you're going to have
- 19:17Speaker 1: now a greater discussion about AI itself. So unless... unless
- 19:23Speaker 1: it is explained to the American people with transparency, I
- 19:29Speaker 1: have a feeling that this is going to boomerang on
- 19:32Speaker 1: the president.
- 19:32Speaker 4: Yeah, Jacob Coxon, who started this whole thing, he even agrees.
- 19:37Speaker 4: As you heard him say a moment ago, we can't
- 19:39Speaker 4: do anything unless China's on board. And I think every
- 19:44Speaker 4: single person, including Donald Trump, Donald Trump, everybody, the CEO
- 19:48Speaker 4: of Anthropic, Elon Musk, Sam Altman, everybody has said the
- 19:52Speaker 4: same thing, that if China's not on board, it's useless.
- 19:55Speaker 4: I mean, who cares what you do if it's going
- 19:58Speaker 4: to be unleashed by an adversary? So I got a
- 20:01Speaker 4: feeling nothing's going to be done. just because of the
- 20:04Speaker 4: competition between China and the United States. And even if
- 20:07Speaker 4: China said tomorrow, you know what, you're right, we should
- 20:12Speaker 4: have a little bit of a moratorium, just ban it
- 20:14Speaker 4: for a while, we wouldn't believe them.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Well, the president can make that a priority issue when
- 20:20Speaker 1: President Xi visits with him at the White House at
- 20:22Speaker 1: the end of this month. I think the other thing
- 20:25Speaker 1: that they have been discussing with these silos, remember silos
- 20:28Speaker 1: we were introduced to first with grain? then silos where
- 20:32Speaker 1: we stored our nuclear weapons. Remember, men would be down
- 20:36Speaker 1: in the silos for months on end. But now, apparently,
- 20:40Speaker 1: they take the AI agents, the AI models, and they
- 20:44Speaker 1: put them in silos, and they figured out a way
- 20:47Speaker 1: to break out. So you might have to just have
- 20:49Speaker 1: a kill switch. When they're starting to get a little
- 20:52Speaker 1: too frisky and starting to act on their own and
- 20:56Speaker 1: communicating with one another, I think you have to have
- 20:59Speaker 1: a kill switch.
- 20:59Speaker 4: What did they say in 2001?
- 21:03Speaker 2: Sorry. What is that again?
- 21:05Speaker 4: I can't do that.
- 21:06Speaker 2: That's right. I can't do that.
- 21:08Speaker 1: But that was back, remember, that was in 1968, 2001
- 21:11Speaker 1: Space Odyssey, in which the astronauts thought they had the
- 21:16Speaker 1: upper hand. What is his name again who said, no,
- 21:20Speaker 1: I can't do that? How?
- 21:21Speaker 2: How?
- 21:22Speaker 1: So we've dealt with aspects of this over the years
- 21:27Speaker 1: in fantasy, but now we're dealing with reality. I don't
- 21:30Speaker 1: think anybody has the answers here. So I think that's
- 21:33Speaker 1: why it's incumbent that they bring everybody together in a
- 21:36Speaker 1: conference and discuss it and then put a paper out
- 21:40Speaker 1: on it for the average American people who are going
- 21:43Speaker 1: to be frightened now.
- 21:43Speaker 2: They're going to be frightened. Curtis Lewa and Larry Mendte
- 21:47Speaker 2: in the morning. On 710WOR. On the line, Warner Wolf.
- 21:53Speaker 1: And it started yesterday in the afternoon with the New
- 21:56Speaker 1: York Jets winning. against the Titans, and were you anticipating
- 22:04Speaker 1: that victory?
- 22:06Speaker 5: That one, I don't think Cam Ward is that great
- 22:10Speaker 5: for the Titans, but I was thinking, here's Robert Sala,
- 22:18Speaker 5: the new Titans coach, he must have been Are you
- 22:21Speaker 5: thinking he was still coaching the Jets? Yeah, they were terrible. Unfortunately,
- 22:29Speaker 5: the Jets don't play the Titans every week. But I'll
- 22:32Speaker 5: tell you what, let's hear it for Geno Smith. No interceptions,
- 22:37Speaker 5: no fumbles, no sacks. And it appears the Jets may
- 22:42Speaker 5: have finally found a reliable, long-distant place kicker. Jason Sanders
- 22:49Speaker 5: made three yesterday, including a 51-yarder and a 52-yarder.
- 22:55Speaker 1: So you're all pumped up on them, Warner. I mean,
- 22:59Speaker 1: you were down on them before the start of the season.
- 23:04Speaker 5: Fickle. I change. Fair weather.
- 23:07Speaker 1: All right. And the evening action, Sunday night football, Giants
- 23:11Speaker 1: versus Dallas at MetLife.
- 23:15Speaker 5: I stayed up, watched the game. If you didn't stay
- 23:18Speaker 5: up until 1130, Giants beat the Cowboys 28-20. And you
- 23:22Speaker 5: know what? The score was no indication of how much
- 23:26Speaker 5: the Giants dominated the game. And I'll tell you what,
- 23:30Speaker 5: if Jackson Dart, who gained 54 yards rushing, if he
- 23:36Speaker 5: wisely continues to slide and run out of bounds, man,
- 23:41Speaker 5: here's the Giants 4-13 last year. They could win 9
- 23:43Speaker 5: or 10 games this year. I do have a question, though.
- 23:50Speaker 5: The Cowboys' defensive coordinator, he must have been watching another game.
- 23:56Speaker 5: The Giants killed him all night with the same play,
- 24:00Speaker 5: a pass in the flat to the Cowboys' right side.
- 24:05Speaker 5: And also, man, Dak Prescott, he threw one of the
- 24:09Speaker 5: worst passes of his career. If you didn't see this,
- 24:13Speaker 5: the interception just before the half He's trying to throw
- 24:17Speaker 5: out of bounds while falling backwards. It was intercepted, and
- 24:22Speaker 5: the Giants scored, and it went ahead. And what a
- 24:26Speaker 5: dummy this Javante Williams is. He scores, and then he
- 24:31Speaker 5: taunts the Giants 15 yards. So instead of the normal
- 24:37Speaker 5: 33-yard extra point, Aubrey had an extra point from 48
- 24:43Speaker 5: yards and missed. So if the Cowboys had scored again,
- 24:49Speaker 5: they would have had to go for the two-point conversion.
- 24:52Speaker 2: God, you're euphoric. You're euphoric. Both teams, you're like on
- 24:57Speaker 2: top of the world.
- 24:59Speaker 5: He has.
- 24:59Speaker 4: Think about it. Ten wins for the Giants, that puts
- 25:03Speaker 4: him on the doorstep of a playoff. Yes.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 25:06Speaker 5: Ten and seven would make it. Possibly nine and eight
- 25:11Speaker 5: would make it. And it's funny, Harbaugh would have made
- 25:14Speaker 5: the playoffs last year and maybe he'd still be coaching
- 25:18Speaker 5: the Ravens if Tyler Loop had made that, I think
- 25:24Speaker 5: it was a 44-yard field goal at the end and
- 25:27Speaker 5: he missed. Well, yesterday, Loop, for the same Ravens, made
- 25:31Speaker 5: a 57-yard field goal. It's kind of funny. But I'm
- 25:36Speaker 5: glad he missed it so the Giants have Harbaugh. Oh,
- 25:40Speaker 5: changing the gears, the early suspicious college football coach of
- 25:46Speaker 5: the year, Ohio State's Ryan Day. Ohio State was a 50,
- 25:51Speaker 5: that's 5-0, and a half-point favorite over little Ball State.
- 25:57Speaker 5: But they led by only 46 points with just 155
- 26:01Speaker 5: to play. With a second down at Ball State's 15-yard line,
- 26:06Speaker 5: did Ohio State try and run out the clock? No!
- 26:09Speaker 1: No!
- 26:10Speaker 5: They passed for a touchdown and beat the 50-and-a-half-point spread,
- 26:16Speaker 5: winning 56-to-3, 53 points. Why? Well, obviously the Ohio State
- 26:25Speaker 5: coach must have taken Ohio State and given the points.
- 26:29Speaker 5: Why else would he do it? And Curtis, you brought
- 26:34Speaker 5: up a good– go ahead. The rule, Miami, Florida against
- 26:40Speaker 5: the Florida A & M.
- 26:41Speaker 1: Yeah, well, the reason I'm interested in Florida A &
- 26:45Speaker 1: M is because I remember as a kid watching the
- 26:49Speaker 1: world's fastest human, Bob Hayes, play for Florida A &
- 26:52Speaker 1: M before he went to win an Olympic gold medal
- 26:56Speaker 1: and then be on the Dallas Cowboys and be labeled
- 26:59Speaker 1: the world's fastest human.
- 27:01Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 27:02Speaker 5: But they had this new, it's not, anyway, Miami beat
- 27:08Speaker 5: Florida A & M 77-7. And they stopped the game
- 27:12Speaker 5: with five minutes left. Now, I didn't even know about
- 27:16Speaker 5: this rule. It's rarely used. They stopped the game with
- 27:20Speaker 5: five minutes left. The rule says if both teams, this
- 27:24Speaker 5: is college ball, both teams and the referee agree to
- 27:28Speaker 5: shorten the game at any time, they can do it.
- 27:31Speaker 5: The rule should be used more, right?
- 27:35Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely. I didn't know that existed either.
- 27:38Speaker 5: No.
- 27:39Speaker 4: Has it ever been used?
- 27:41Speaker 5: Yeah, they could have used it Saturday. Georgia beat Western
- 27:45Speaker 5: Kentucky 70-20. Houston beat Southern 77-66. The only reason maybe
- 27:48Speaker 5: you don't want to use it it gives the bench
- 27:56Speaker 5: warmers on the winning team a chance to play.
- 27:59Speaker 2: So what do you have to do as the coach?
- 28:01Speaker 2: You got to throw in the white towel? You got
- 28:03Speaker 2: to throw it in on the field? No mas, no mas,
- 28:06Speaker 2: we give up?
- 28:06Speaker 5: Yeah. No, but both teams have to agree.
- 28:11Speaker 2: Oh, I see.
- 28:11Speaker 5: And the referee.
- 28:12Speaker 2: I see. Wow.
- 28:13Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:14Speaker 5: I didn't even know that rule was in the books. Hey,
- 28:18Speaker 5: the boo of the week has to go to poor sport.
- 28:22Speaker 5: Bush leaguer, Irina Sabalenka, who after being aced by Elena Rabokina,
- 28:32Speaker 5: match point. Rabokina, give me four times and I'll get it.
- 28:37Speaker 5: On match point, I don't know if you saw it,
- 28:40Speaker 5: so Rabokina wins the championship and Sabalenka throws a racket
- 28:47Speaker 5: on the court and then when she sits down, She
- 28:50Speaker 5: did a two-hand smash with her racket. Man, I mean,
- 28:54Speaker 5: come on, get her out. Maybe the $ 100, 000 necklace worn
- 28:59Speaker 5: around her neck when she plays was too heavy and
- 29:02Speaker 5: it wore her down.
- 29:05Speaker 1: Or all the marijuana smoke in the stadium that she
- 29:09Speaker 1: and other tennis stars were complaining about.
- 29:13Speaker 5: That's right. That's right. Hey, I've got a little story.
- 29:18Speaker 5: The late 86-year-old NBA Hall of Famer Don Nelson, who
- 29:22Speaker 5: passed away recently. Well, you know, besides being the second
- 29:27Speaker 5: winningest NBA coach in history after Greg Popovich, when Nelson
- 29:32Speaker 5: played on five Boston Celtics championship teams, Nelson was known
- 29:38Speaker 5: to use an above of stick'em on his hands, which
- 29:44Speaker 5: helped him with the pump fake and driving to the
- 29:47Speaker 5: basket without losing the ball. But the joke was, players
- 29:53Speaker 5: around the league complained that And they would say, Nelson
- 29:57Speaker 5: uses so much stickum on his hands that he can't
- 30:01Speaker 5: even tie his own shoelaces. Is that only funny to me?
- 30:07Speaker 1: You know, that reminds me. Remember Fred Belitnikoff, flanker for
- 30:13Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders, had stickum from his elbows?
- 30:17Speaker 2: To his fingers.
- 30:19Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 30:20Speaker 4: The ball would hit him in the back and he
- 30:22Speaker 4: was a catch.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 30:23Speaker 5: He would stick. That's right.
- 30:27Speaker 2: But anyway, we do appreciate that, Warner Wolf.
- 30:31Speaker 1: We will catch up with you same time, same place
- 30:34Speaker 1: next week while you're on this euphoric high for the
- 30:38Speaker 1: Jets and the Giants winning their opening games.
- 30:41Speaker 4: Yeah, he might be off the bandwagon next week. He
- 30:43Speaker 4: might be.
- 30:46Speaker 2: Shipping and industrial
