- 0:00Speaker 1: Oh, what a day it was here yesterday on the
- 0:03Speaker 1: floor of iHeartRadio, not just here at 710WR, your number
- 0:08Speaker 1: one talk station in the nation, but also all of
- 0:11Speaker 1: our FM brothers and sisters in solidarity because Larry, the
- 0:16Speaker 1: North Shore Animal League of America brought puppies in that
- 0:20Speaker 1: they had rescued in South Carolina where they didn't do
- 0:24Speaker 1: any neutering and spading and boy, these poor puppies would
- 0:28Speaker 1: have been... killed, but they do such a good job
- 0:32Speaker 1: rescuing unwanted dogs all over the country and then finding
- 0:36Speaker 1: a home of their own. And I got to tell you,
- 0:40Speaker 1: you can actually see it posted. I was over at
- 0:42Speaker 1: Classic Rock Q104. 3, normally with Jim Kerr in the morning,
- 0:47Speaker 1: but Maria Malito, and she has her own podcast about
- 0:52Speaker 1: animal welfare. She loves animals and you'll see She's holding
- 0:55Speaker 1: one of these rescued puppies. I'm there. Oh, man, it
- 0:59Speaker 1: was like Puppy Love, that song. What is that, Puppy Love?
- 1:02Speaker 2: Yeah, the Osmonds, I think that is. I saw a
- 1:05Speaker 2: picture of Natalie with a puppy, and it looks like
- 1:08Speaker 2: she's going to adopt a puppy. I'm not sure if
- 1:11Speaker 2: her family knows this yet, but it sounds like that
- 1:13Speaker 2: puppy's going home with you.
- 1:15Speaker 1: I know.
- 1:16Speaker 3: I was really taken by those puppies.
- 1:18Speaker 4: They are having an event this weekend on Saturday in
- 1:22Speaker 4: Port Washington.
- 1:24Speaker 3: You might find me there.
- 1:25Speaker 1: I gotta tell you i've been there many times and
- 1:28Speaker 1: you there's no smell the animals are happy like some
- 1:33Speaker 1: shelters i've seen around the country they're drugged up so
- 1:36Speaker 1: they're like sedated not there and boy people get a
- 1:40Speaker 1: choice of whether it's dogs cats or other animals so
- 1:43Speaker 1: i'm suggesting if you're if you're looking for a new
- 1:46Speaker 1: friend furry uh friend uh a furry friend Just go
- 1:51Speaker 1: to the North Shore Animal League. It's a great place
- 1:52Speaker 1: to go to. And this is in league with a
- 1:55Speaker 1: conversation we had with you yesterday.
- 1:57Speaker 2: Let me say one last thing about that, because I
- 1:59Speaker 2: think this is important. Even if you are thinking about
- 2:02Speaker 2: getting a dog, even if you say to yourself, well,
- 2:06Speaker 2: I don't like dogs, but I want to go see
- 2:07Speaker 2: the puppies. I will tell you, I learned something from Natalie.
- 2:11Speaker 2: Natalie's never had a dog in her life. She held
- 2:14Speaker 2: one of these puppies, and now she's actually thinking about
- 2:17Speaker 2: getting a dog. And so don't think to yourself, I'm
- 2:21Speaker 2: not a dog person, so I'm not going to go
- 2:22Speaker 2: to this thing. Just if you're nearby, go ahead over there.
- 2:27Speaker 2: You might find some love. Come on.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Come on, Natalie. You can handle it. Look, getting a
- 2:33Speaker 1: puppy to train properly is a little difficult. Might keep
- 2:37Speaker 1: you up the few hours that you get some sleep
- 2:39Speaker 1: if they're yelping. But you can handle it, Natalie. You
- 2:42Speaker 1: and your family, you can handle it.
- 2:43Speaker 5: I think we can.
- 2:44Speaker 4: We've always talked about maybe when we retire, where we
- 2:47Speaker 4: could spend a lot of time with puppies.
- 2:48Speaker 1: The dog.
- 2:49Speaker 2: You only need to spend a whole lot of time
- 2:52Speaker 2: when they're a puppy, I think. I think they're self-sufficient
- 2:56Speaker 2: after they're a puppy. They get lonely. I mean, nobody
- 2:59Speaker 2: knows this, but dogs get depressed too. if you leave
- 3:02Speaker 2: them alone for too long. But let me ask you
- 3:05Speaker 2: a question. Retire?
- 3:06Speaker 1: You ain't retiring. Well, no, I'm not. You've been here
- 3:09Speaker 1: with all three of the gamblers, the legacy. You've been
- 3:12Speaker 1: with every talk show here on WOR, Joan Hamburg, Barry Gray,
- 3:18Speaker 1: all of them.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't think she said she was going. She said,
- 3:22Speaker 2: when I retire. That's what she said. Someday she's going
- 3:26Speaker 2: to retire.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Do it now.
- 3:30Speaker 6: Wow.
- 3:31Speaker 2: I thought he liked you.
- 3:32Speaker 7: Oh, I do.
- 3:33Speaker 1: But you should have seen it yesterday. She fell in
- 3:35Speaker 1: love with this puppy. Come on. You don't want to
- 3:38Speaker 1: break that puppy's heart. Natalie, that puppy looked at you like,
- 3:41Speaker 1: please take me home. Please take me home.
- 3:43Speaker 2: You should get one. Even for security alone. I will
- 3:46Speaker 2: tell you, I did two stories called the burglars poll.
- 3:50Speaker 2: where we went to prisons and we talked to people
- 3:52Speaker 2: that were in prisons for burglary. And I did it
- 3:54Speaker 2: in Chicago and I did it in Philadelphia. And the
- 3:57Speaker 2: number one deterrent is a dog. More than security alarms,
- 4:03Speaker 2: more than anything else. Nosy neighbors are number two, by
- 4:08Speaker 2: the way. But number one is a dog. So just think,
- 4:12Speaker 2: you want to get a security alarm. You can have
- 4:14Speaker 2: a dog. A dog is always going to bark and
- 4:17Speaker 2: the burglars say, we just go. As soon as you
- 4:19Speaker 2: hear a dog, we leave. Now, that sounds like a
- 4:22Speaker 2: real dog guy. You've been a dog guy your whole life, right?
- 4:25Speaker 2: I have been, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No cats.
- 4:27Speaker 1: Take us through the transitions of the different dogs you've had.
- 4:31Speaker 2: Well, we bought my grandmother lived in West Philly and
- 4:35Speaker 2: the neighborhood started to turn. So we got her a
- 4:37Speaker 2: dog that was vicious named Bing. And then she came
- 4:41Speaker 2: to live with us. So Bing came to our house.
- 4:44Speaker 2: The vicious dog was in our house for a while.
- 4:47Speaker 2: But for some reason, the dog, I could tame the
- 4:50Speaker 2: vicious dog because I was like three. And the dog
- 4:53Speaker 2: would come up and growl at me, and I'd be
- 4:55Speaker 2: ready for it, and I'd have toothpaste, and I'd rub
- 4:57Speaker 2: it in his mouth. And he'd start sneezing and go away.
- 5:01Speaker 2: So that was the first dog. Then we had another Bing.
- 5:04Speaker 2: And then since then, I've had dogs, geez, everywhere I went,
- 5:10Speaker 2: everywhere I went. I love having a dog. I love
- 5:14Speaker 2: having a dog for a lot of reasons, not just companionship,
- 5:17Speaker 2: but it's smart to have one. especially if you're going
- 5:20Speaker 2: to be away from your apartment or your home because
- 5:25Speaker 2: it is the best security system you can get.
- 5:28Speaker 1: And I'm sure it was good as deer radar, keeping
- 5:31Speaker 1: the deer away, right? Oh, my God.
- 5:35Speaker 2: Thanks for saying that. I forgot all about that. Now
- 5:38Speaker 2: we're definitely going to get a dog. I can promise
- 5:41Speaker 2: you we will get a dog because I forgot all
- 5:44Speaker 2: about that. When I tell Dawn... If we get a dog,
- 5:47Speaker 2: there'll be no more deer in our yard. We'll get
- 5:50Speaker 2: one tomorrow.
- 5:51Speaker 1: But that was a result of having lost and continuing
- 5:54Speaker 1: to mourn the last dog you had, which was Buddy.
- 5:57Speaker 1: You've had a series of dogs called Buddy, right? Buddy 1,
- 6:00Speaker 1: Buddy 2. What was this, based on the coach of
- 6:02Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles, Buddy Ryan?
- 6:04Speaker 2: Buddy Ryan, no, no, no. The shame of it is
- 6:07Speaker 2: I call my kids Buddy as a nickname, too. So
- 6:11Speaker 2: nobody knows who I'm talking to all the time. But no,
- 6:14Speaker 2: we've had three German Shepherds. We had a purebred white
- 6:18Speaker 2: German Shepherd. Then we had a police dog that lasted
- 6:21Speaker 2: like a week because he ran away. And then we
- 6:24Speaker 2: had another one that was a mix between a white
- 6:27Speaker 2: Lab and a white German Shepherd. Unbelievable dogs. Loved every
- 6:31Speaker 2: one of those dogs. But when the last one died,
- 6:34Speaker 2: Dawn said, I don't know if I could take another
- 6:36Speaker 2: one dying. I can't. It hit her really hard.
- 6:40Speaker 1: A lot of people are like that. You know, when
- 6:42Speaker 1: they lose... a cherished member of their family, because that's
- 6:45Speaker 1: what Buddy was to you, they find it, they know, well,
- 6:49Speaker 1: we could get another dog, but nobody's going to replace Buddy.
- 6:52Speaker 1: And it would remind you of Buddy. But now, deer radar.
- 6:58Speaker 2: Well, aside from that, that's going to make certain. Seal
- 7:01Speaker 2: the deal. That's going to close the deal, yeah. Because
- 7:05Speaker 2: she came to me about a week ago and said,
- 7:07Speaker 2: you know, I think I'm ready to get another dog.
- 7:10Speaker 2: I think I'm ready. So it sounds like that's going
- 7:12Speaker 2: to make it happen. Wait till I tell her that.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 7:15Speaker 1: This will be good. Anyway, if you have any talkbacks
- 7:18Speaker 1: on this subject, especially in light of the North Shore
- 7:21Speaker 1: Animal League having the giveaway of puppies, especially that they've
- 7:26Speaker 1: just rescued all over the country this weekend, how can
- 7:30Speaker 1: they register for our talkback?
- 7:32Speaker 2: Oh, it's really easy. If you've loved Talkbacks before, you
- 7:36Speaker 2: probably know. But if you haven't, join in. It's a
- 7:38Speaker 2: lot of fun, and we love to hear from you.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Go to the iHeartRadio app, and you can leave us
- 7:42Speaker 2: a Talkback there. You could win a Curtis Lee and
- 7:45Speaker 2: Larry Menthe in the morning T-shirt, which is going to
- 7:47Speaker 2: be awarded every day to our favorite Talkback of the morning.
- 7:50Speaker 2: And while you're on the free iHeartRadio app, be sure
- 7:52Speaker 2: to set a preset for 710WOR. You go to the
- 7:56Speaker 2: iHeartRadio app, you look for 710WOR, and then the Talkback
- 7:59Speaker 2: feature is It's a red microphone. You hit it. You
- 8:01Speaker 2: record what you want to say. If you don't like it,
- 8:03Speaker 2: you can record it again. Don't forget, the best talk
- 8:05Speaker 2: back of the week takes home a C-Crane radio.
- 8:08Speaker 1: You know, my mother, Francesca, no longer with us, was
- 8:11Speaker 1: terrified of dogs. And I was delivering the New York
- 8:14Speaker 1: Daily News in the morning, 168 Daily. So it took
- 8:17Speaker 1: me a while. And I saw this huge dog running around.
- 8:21Speaker 1: Somebody had just dumped him. You could tell that in
- 8:23Speaker 1: the streets of Canarsie. He was part Great Dane, part
- 8:27Speaker 1: German Shepherd. I just showed you a picture of it, Larry,
- 8:30Speaker 1: with my grandfather, Fidelio Bianchino, who loved dogs. And my
- 8:34Speaker 1: mom did not want a dog. So when I brought
- 8:37Speaker 1: the dog home, she said that no dog is going
- 8:39Speaker 1: to be in my house. You and your grandfather are
- 8:42Speaker 1: going to have to build him a dog house out
- 8:44Speaker 1: in the yard. And so he stayed in the doghouse,
- 8:47Speaker 1: and obviously nobody's coming in beyond that fence. So my
- 8:52Speaker 1: uncle comes in, my Uncle Vincennes, who's having an argument
- 8:55Speaker 1: with my mother over something. I forget what it was.
- 8:59Speaker 1: And he's arguing and arguing in the house. His voice
- 9:02Speaker 1: is getting raised up. I wonder what's going on. What
- 9:05Speaker 1: am I going to do? I'm just a little kid.
- 9:07Speaker 1: And he goes to leave. And the dog puts his
- 9:11Speaker 1: paw right in front of his leg and puts his
- 9:14Speaker 1: mouth right on his ankle. My cousin Vincenzo was so scared.
- 9:20Speaker 1: He's saying to me, get that dog off of me.
- 9:22Speaker 1: Get that dog off of me. And then he just
- 9:24Speaker 1: ran out. Didn't come back to bother my mom after that.
- 9:27Speaker 1: And you know what my mom said? The dog gets
- 9:29Speaker 1: to stay in the house. The dog gets to stay
- 9:33Speaker 1: in the house. Oh, and as you can see, you
- 9:36Speaker 1: know what you should do, Natalie, at some point this week?
- 9:38Speaker 2: Yes, what?
- 9:39Speaker 1: Because we want to promote people going out and adopting
- 9:42Speaker 1: unwanted dogs. You should post a picture that I just
- 9:45Speaker 1: showed Larry so people can see. I was originally a
- 9:48Speaker 1: dog guy growing up. And then Larry, if you have
- 9:50Speaker 1: any pictures of you and your dog, you should definitely
- 9:53Speaker 1: post that. Just as an encouragement to others, because there
- 9:57Speaker 1: are a lot of unwanted dogs out there who are
- 9:59Speaker 1: just looking for a home.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Of their own. Yeah, I think I'll wait until we
- 10:01Speaker 2: get another dog, which I think now is going to
- 10:04Speaker 2: happen soon. You don't realize how important... I can't believe
- 10:07Speaker 2: I didn't think of that before. I cannot believe I
- 10:09Speaker 2: didn't think of that. Because you told me when they.
- 10:12Speaker 1: When we first consummated this relationship, you know, after Tom
- 10:15Speaker 1: Cuddy did the shit in March, you told me that
- 10:19Speaker 1: your wife Dawn hates the deer coming into your yard.
- 10:23Speaker 2: And we've tried everything.
- 10:24Speaker 1: And eat all the flowers, eat everything. She doesn't even
- 10:27Speaker 1: want to plant anymore.
- 10:28Speaker 2: We've tried coyote urine, which smells horrible, but we had
- 10:31Speaker 2: it all over our yard. First rain, it's gone. We
- 10:35Speaker 2: tried everything. I will promise you, we will have a
- 10:40Speaker 2: dog within two weeks.
- 10:41Speaker 1: Because the dog is going to frolic in the yard,
- 10:44Speaker 1: and the deer are going to stay away.
- 10:45Speaker 2: Yeah, and even if it's a puppy, it's going to
- 10:48Speaker 2: run after the deer like it wants to play, and
- 10:50Speaker 2: it's still going to scare them off.
- 10:52Speaker 1: You see, I did a good thing. Larry, Dawn, if
- 10:56Speaker 1: you're listening, Natalie, I did a good thing. I was
- 11:00Speaker 1: able to put the key in the door and turn it.
- 11:03Speaker 1: To give rationale to Dawn to get over her mourning
- 11:06Speaker 1: period for your previous beloved dog, Buddy. And this now
- 11:10Speaker 1: has a rational reason why you got to do that. Oh,
- 11:13Speaker 1: and she hates the deer. She hates the deer. Probably
- 11:16Speaker 1: treats deer like Agent Orange in hooves. Because people say
- 11:22Speaker 1: when the deer come on like your property, Natalie, they
- 11:25Speaker 1: just eat everything in sight.
- 11:27Speaker 2: We tried everything. My son was out with a BB
- 11:29Speaker 2: gun shooting them. And I said, what if he hit
- 11:31Speaker 2: one in the eye? And that stopped that. Then after that,
- 11:34Speaker 2: he wouldn't do it.
- 11:36Speaker 1: Oh, up next, what a great, golly, gee, golly, holly, yaski, hallelujah.
- 11:41Speaker 1: The Yankees just killed the Red Sox last night at
- 11:44Speaker 1: the stadium. Game two in the playoffs tonight, plus a
- 11:49Speaker 1: chance to see Stevie Wonder's sold-out concert at Madison Square
- 11:53Speaker 1: Garden at 825. But speaking of music, starting Monday, this Monday,
- 11:59Speaker 1: WOR has nine chances every weekday to score a grand
- 12:03Speaker 1: in your hand. You listen for the keyword every hour
- 12:07Speaker 1: from 9 a.m. till 5 p.m. Enter it on our
- 12:10Speaker 1: website and you could win a thousand bucks starting this
- 12:14Speaker 1: coming Monday.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Well, going into their first playoff game against the Red Sox,
- 12:19Speaker 2: you heard a lot of people upset. Oh, no, we
- 12:22Speaker 2: don't have Aaron Judge. We don't have Aaron Judge. My
- 12:26Speaker 2: question is, who needs Aaron Judge when you have Ben Rice?
- 12:31Speaker 1: He hammers this ball right center field. It is a slam!
- 12:38Speaker 2: And that wasn't all for him the night he had.
- 12:43Speaker 2: What a night for Ben Rice.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Six RBIs, four hits tonight, two homers, a single and
- 12:48Speaker 1: a double. And he just put this game out of reach.
- 12:51Speaker 2: He wasn't even the best Yankee player on the field.
- 12:55Speaker 2: That would be Cam Schlittler, who retired the first 13
- 13:00Speaker 2: batters in a row. And they were chanting not just
- 13:04Speaker 2: Cy Young. They were chanting MVP at that point. I'll
- 13:08Speaker 2: tell you what, Curtis, you've got to be happy.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Well, I'm happy because both these boys you mentioned are
- 13:13Speaker 1: from Massachusetts. Grew up in Red Sox land. So this
- 13:16Speaker 1: is like a double whammy to the Red Sox who
- 13:18Speaker 1: I hate, I loathe, I despise. And tonight, game two,
- 13:23Speaker 1: the Yanks could wipe them out. It's just a three-game set.
- 13:26Speaker 1: Max Fried, who would be Warner Wolfe's favorite pitcher, Jewish
- 13:30Speaker 1: kid from Santa Monica, California for the Yankees. Sonny Gray,
- 13:34Speaker 1: who's a great pitcher, except when he was with the Yankees.
- 13:37Speaker 1: He was horrible. So the Yankees are in his head.
- 13:40Speaker 1: So I think it's a pretty good prediction if you
- 13:43Speaker 1: went to Polymark. that the Yankees are going to take
- 13:46Speaker 1: this in two, and it's what I said yesterday. Remember
- 13:50Speaker 1: when Aaron Judge was ruled out because he can't even
- 13:53Speaker 1: run because of the calf injury? Go with the guys
- 13:56Speaker 1: who got you there. There's this young energy. Forget Aaron Judge.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Forget Stanton. Listen to him now. You didn't say that
- 14:04Speaker 1: a couple days ago. I said he's horrible in the playoffs.
- 14:07Speaker 1: He really is. He doesn't deliver in the playoffs.
- 14:09Speaker 2: You were worried, though. A little worried.
- 14:11Speaker 1: Not really. Not really. They got the young guns. And
- 14:14Speaker 1: the other good thing that Aaron Boone did, he looked
- 14:16Speaker 1: at Chisholm at second base. who's got attitude. He's like
- 14:20Speaker 1: Reggie Jackson who can't deliver. I mean, Reggie Jackson had attitude,
- 14:24Speaker 1: but he was Mr.
- 14:24Speaker 2: October.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Chisholm, attitude, can't deliver. He spreads disharmony in the clubhouse.
- 14:30Speaker 1: He said, I want to play, coach. He said, no,
- 14:32Speaker 1: we're playing Volpe at second. And man, the energy was
- 14:36Speaker 1: so good going into this playoff against the hated Red Sox.
- 14:42Speaker 1: And it was that home run. And I know, Larry,
- 14:44Speaker 1: you're licking your wounds because first game against the Atlanta Braves,
- 14:48Speaker 1: Philly in the later innings, and boom, the Atlanta Braves
- 14:51Speaker 1: hit one out of there.
- 14:52Speaker 2: I'm not holding out much hope for the Phillies, so
- 14:54Speaker 2: I'm a Yankees fan. No, no, we don't want you. Oh, yes,
- 14:58Speaker 2: you do. Oh, no, no, no. You can't be.
- 15:00Speaker 1: A fair-weather fan. You've got to be loyal to your team.
- 15:03Speaker 2: Can I tell you, I've worked in so many cities,
- 15:06Speaker 2: and I've covered them so much that I now– I
- 15:10Speaker 2: like the Cubs. I like the Yankees and the Mets. Hell,
- 15:14Speaker 2: I was good luck. When I was here at Eyewitness News,
- 15:17Speaker 2: the Mets won the World Series and the Giants won
- 15:20Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. So you want me on your team.
- 15:22Speaker 8: No.
- 15:23Speaker 2: You need me on that wall. No, I'm sorry.
- 15:24Speaker 1: You're a Phillies fan. Stay a Phillies fan. One thing
- 15:27Speaker 1: that Aaron Boone, the pitch, the manager is, you know,
- 15:31Speaker 1: he's Mr. Analytics. So Cam Schlittler threw 117 pitches. Now, normally,
- 15:37Speaker 1: Aaron Boone, it's like, You're like at 87, 90 pitches,
- 15:42Speaker 1: he pulls you. He let him throw 117 pitches before
- 15:46Speaker 1: he pulled him out, which is not customary for Aaron.
- 15:50Speaker 1: Let's go by the analytics boon who our own Warner
- 15:52Speaker 1: Wolf is always attacking.
- 15:54Speaker 2: But of course he did because not one batter reached
- 15:57Speaker 2: second base. He walked one, he gave up a couple hits,
- 16:01Speaker 2: but nobody even got to second base under him. In
- 16:04Speaker 2: the old days, they would have let him throw a
- 16:06Speaker 2: complete game. But let's get to some talkbacks. Anyway, congratulations, Yankees.
- 16:11Speaker 2: I agree with you. I think this is over.
- 16:13Speaker 6: Hey, I'd like to say about adopting dogs. We rescued Moose,
- 16:18Speaker 6: a massive mix, two years ago.
- 16:20Speaker 2: Great dog.
- 16:21Speaker 6: People really should look at the larger breed dogs. They
- 16:25Speaker 6: get left behind because they're so big. But they are
- 16:30Speaker 6: just big mushes, and they should really be considered dogs.
- 16:35Speaker 6: it's going to take two to three years for you
- 16:38Speaker 6: to get to know your dog.
- 16:41Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a great talk back. I've always had
- 16:44Speaker 2: a bigger dog, and I love them. You're right. For
- 16:48Speaker 2: your family, they are big mushes. For everybody else, well,
- 16:51Speaker 2: the neighbor said to me one time, you know how
- 16:53Speaker 2: you think Buddy's so cute? Nobody else in the neighborhood
- 16:56Speaker 2: thinks that. Here's another talk back. Hey, you got to
- 17:01Speaker 2: watch out getting a dog to keep deer away, man.
- 17:03Speaker 9: My aunt had a puppy that befriended local deer and
- 17:07Speaker 9: all the time that dog would be out prancing around
- 17:10Speaker 9: with the deer in the backyard.
- 17:12Speaker 2: That was the last buddy who was a big disappointment.
- 17:14Speaker 10: Oh my gosh, they became friends?
- 17:15Speaker 2: No, buddy, I told you this story before. Buddy used
- 17:18Speaker 2: to sit there with the deer. They knew each other's names.
- 17:20Speaker 1: That would be my problem. Wait, wait, Natalie, don't vacillate.
- 17:24Speaker 1: Don't get weak. You had that little puppy from South
- 17:27Speaker 1: Carolina from the animal... North Shore Animal Week in your
- 17:33Speaker 1: hands and you fell in love with that little puppy.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Don't extricate yourself. That puppy is expecting to go home
- 17:40Speaker 1: with you to New Jersey. You know that. That bond
- 17:42Speaker 1: was made yesterday here at iHeart.
- 17:44Speaker 2: You were hugging it and kissing it. It was kissing
- 17:49Speaker 2: you back.
- 17:50Speaker 1: It was adorable.
- 17:51Speaker 3: Darian, do you want a dog?
- 17:52Speaker 10: I do, actually.
- 17:53Speaker 3: I want a dog, but I have three now. My
- 17:55Speaker 3: husband says if I bring one more home... It's going
- 17:58Speaker 3: to be him or the dog, and I tell them,
- 17:59Speaker 3: don't tempt me.
- 18:02Speaker 2: Here's Derry Albinger now with the 630 News.
- 18:04Speaker 3: Sunny and warmer today. Clouds rolling in this afternoon. We'll
- 18:07Speaker 3: have a high of 75 degrees. You can call it
- 18:11Speaker 3: whatever you want, but if you work for the federal government...
- 18:14Speaker 3: The term is now officially superintelligence after President Trump signed
- 18:18Speaker 3: an executive order.
- 18:19Speaker 11: The order signed Tuesday states that going forward, all federal websites, documents,
- 18:23Speaker 11: and press releases will no longer mention AI, but only superintelligence.
- 18:28Speaker 11: Trump signed the order after a luncheon at the White
- 18:30Speaker 11: House with tech CEOs, including Elon Musk, and said super
- 18:34Speaker 11: is the best word of all, and it's the simplest,
- 18:36Speaker 11: so we're going to be naming it S.I., He added, quote,
- 18:42Speaker 11: I'm Tammy Trujillo.
- 18:45Speaker 3: The NYPD is looking into officers' use of flock safety
- 18:51Speaker 3: data as it creates department rules for using vendors like it,
- 18:55Speaker 3: which the city currently doesn't have a contract with.
- 18:58Speaker 7: That news from the department Tuesday, one day after advocacy
- 19:02Speaker 7: groups reported that two dozen NYPD officers... had used Flock's
- 19:06Speaker 7: database more than 1,700 times. There will now be set
- 19:10Speaker 7: rules and guidelines for turning to any outside data company.
- 19:14Speaker 7: Those officers did not violate department rules since there were none.
- 19:18Speaker 7: While the department does not work with Flock, it does
- 19:20Speaker 7: work with a similar firm and runs its own network
- 19:23Speaker 7: of license plate readers. Andrew Whitman, WOR News.
- 19:27Speaker 3: There was supposed to be an initial public offering today
- 19:30Speaker 3: on Wall Street by smart ringmaker Ura, but it's going
- 19:33Speaker 3: to delay it for the time being. The company had
- 19:35Speaker 3: been looking to raise more than $ 2 billion and start
- 19:38Speaker 3: trading on the NASDAQ today, but now Ura says it's
- 19:41Speaker 3: going to put that IPO on hold because of uncertainty
- 19:44Speaker 3: in the market, despite what it says is strong demand
- 19:46Speaker 3: for the product. Yankees win game one of their AL
- 19:49Speaker 3: wildcard series against Boston. Game two is tonight at the stadium.
- 19:52Speaker 3: The Liberty upsets top-ranked Minnesota and moves ahead in the
- 19:56Speaker 3: WNBA playoffs. And the Rangers open their season with a
- 19:59Speaker 3: loss to Boston. The Islanders are in Toronto tonight. Next news,
- 20:02Speaker 3: 7 o'clock bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
- 20:06Speaker 1: Sean Puff, Daddy Combs. It was a scene out of Goodfellas. Man,
- 20:11Speaker 1: prison is as good to him as life was on
- 20:15Speaker 1: the outside as he was looking in. We'll get into
- 20:18Speaker 1: that up next. Meantime, oh, we've just completed our 2026
- 20:24Speaker 1: iHeartRadio Music Festival that was presented by Capital One. You
- 20:28Speaker 1: can relieve all the biggest moments streaming on Disney Plus
- 20:32Speaker 1: and Hulu beginning tomorrow. You know, the other morning, Larry
- 20:37Speaker 1: and Natalie, when we talked about the winners of the
- 20:39Speaker 1: Video Music Awards, you notice the one thing that was missing?
- 20:45Speaker 1: They looked forward to Sean Puff, Teddy Combs after party.
- 20:49Speaker 1: Because once that clock struck 12, if you remain behind
- 20:54Speaker 1: for that after party, guess what? Hookers galore. Females, males,
- 21:00Speaker 1: baby body oil, pink cocaine, which doesn't have any cocaine
- 21:04Speaker 1: in it, the drug of your choice. And it was Caligula,
- 21:08Speaker 1: sometimes for 24 straight hours. So that's what all these trendoids, freakasoids,
- 21:14Speaker 1: and jet setters look forward to. Even if P. Diddy
- 21:17Speaker 1: didn't win any awards, didn't matter. P. Diddy was going
- 21:20Speaker 1: to throw the after party. And if you stayed after 12,
- 21:23Speaker 1: you knew exactly what was taking place. Don't act like
- 21:27Speaker 1: you didn't know. Well, guess what? That lifestyle has not changed.
- 21:30Speaker 1: We would have thought, oh, my God, he's found guilty
- 21:33Speaker 1: of basically being a pimp, of promoting prostitution. He's got
- 21:37Speaker 1: 50 months, another two years to go on a sentence.
- 21:41Speaker 1: And they sent him nearby Fort Dix, which used to
- 21:43Speaker 1: be the federal fort. But they turned it into a
- 21:47Speaker 1: federal prison, mostly if you committed political crimes, white collar
- 21:51Speaker 1: crimes or other crimes not considered a hardcore prison. Well,
- 21:56Speaker 1: it's the Sean Puff Daddy Combs prison because whatever he wants,
- 22:00Speaker 1: he gets the VIP life behind bars. He gets Chinese massages.
- 22:07Speaker 1: He gets alcohol and shares it with his Maytag prisoners,
- 22:11Speaker 1: the guys that he pays for to provide him services.
- 22:15Speaker 1: He gets the baby oil. He gets nude photos on
- 22:19Speaker 1: a cell phone that he uses 24-7 from an old
- 22:22Speaker 1: girlfriend who still has an Instagram account that he taps into.
- 22:26Speaker 1: So it's sex, sex, sex, sex, sex. They cater to
- 22:30Speaker 1: every one of his predilections. And you know what is
- 22:34Speaker 1: unsaid here is he's having sex with some of these inmates,
- 22:38Speaker 1: probably the transgenders, because this guy, his libido is out
- 22:42Speaker 1: of control. He has men, inmates who will cook and
- 22:46Speaker 1: clean for him. They call Maytags in jail. They'll make
- 22:49Speaker 1: his bed. They do his laundry. They clean the shower
- 22:54Speaker 1: before he goes in and they clean his turlet. I mean,
- 22:58Speaker 1: and you know this is going on with federal correctional officers,
- 23:03Speaker 1: all who appear to be on the take, and if
- 23:05Speaker 1: they're not on the take, they know what's going on,
- 23:07Speaker 1: but they do nothing.
- 23:08Speaker 2: Yeah, here's the interesting part. So you think to yourself, well,
- 23:11Speaker 2: how does he pay these inmates? How is that possibly happening?
- 23:15Speaker 2: And they'd be caught if he was paying the guards.
- 23:18Speaker 2: That's easy to check and easy to find out. What's
- 23:21Speaker 2: happening is that some people outside of the prison, in
- 23:25Speaker 2: the P. Diddy world... are putting money into the commissary
- 23:30Speaker 2: accounts of the inmates that now serve him. So all
- 23:35Speaker 2: of these commissary accounts are all of a sudden getting
- 23:38Speaker 2: thousands of dollars, as is P. Diddy. P. Diddy's account
- 23:41Speaker 2: is well-funded. So all of the money is coming from
- 23:45Speaker 2: outside sources. So I'm not certain. I don't doubt it, though.
- 23:50Speaker 2: I'm not certain that any of these guards are on
- 23:53Speaker 2: the take, but certainly the inmates are all getting well paid.
- 23:57Speaker 2: And they're going to have money when they come out.
- 23:59Speaker 1: It's like that famous scene in Goodfellas. Remember when Hill,
- 24:03Speaker 1: Henry Hill, is going to do his time with all
- 24:06Speaker 1: of his boys from the Lucchese crime family in Brooklyn.
- 24:09Speaker 1: And there's Paul Sorvino saying, hey, don't worry about it.
- 24:12Speaker 1: And then he's cutting the onions. You know, they got
- 24:15Speaker 1: the chicken. They got the sausage. They got steak. They're
- 24:18Speaker 1: living the life. He has cooked curry chicken pizza empanadas
- 24:24Speaker 1: that are made for him by his Maytags, these inmates,
- 24:29Speaker 1: in a makeshift heating element submerged in water. Whatever he wants,
- 24:35Speaker 1: he gets. Now, now that this is public, now that
- 24:38Speaker 1: the media has it, all the media has it, it's
- 24:40Speaker 1: gone viral. If you're running the Department of Corrections for
- 24:45Speaker 1: the feds, you got to immediately transfer him to a
- 24:49Speaker 1: rough prison like Atlanta. That's the oldest in the system.
- 24:52Speaker 1: It's really bad. Or Marion, where John Gotti Sr. was
- 24:56Speaker 1: until he died. Or Terre Haute. These are old, old-style prisons.
- 25:02Speaker 1: Or the Supermax in Florence, Colorado. For the worst of
- 25:05Speaker 1: the worst, you never see the light of day. It's
- 25:07Speaker 1: all underground. You cannot allow him to stay there. at
- 25:12Speaker 1: Fort Dix and continue to do his time till 2028.
- 25:14Speaker 1: He has made a joke of the federal correctional system.
- 25:18Speaker 2: Yeah, it's going to be really fascinating to see what
- 25:21Speaker 2: the politics of this. It's because you're right. This all
- 25:24Speaker 2: burst on the front pages across the country at the
- 25:28Speaker 2: exact same time. You go do a search, go do
- 25:31Speaker 2: a Google search. You'll see all of these stories about
- 25:34Speaker 2: it over and over and over again. And so the
- 25:38Speaker 2: politics of it is going to be fascinating because everything's
- 25:40Speaker 2: political now. during a midterm. So now Mikey Sherrill probably
- 25:45Speaker 2: hears about this story. Governor Mikey Sherrill hears about the
- 25:47Speaker 2: story and says, oh, thank God it's a federal.
- 25:49Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 25:49Speaker 2: Oh, thank God it's federal. And now she's going to
- 25:52Speaker 2: have a news conference or she's going to put out
- 25:54Speaker 2: a statement saying, I can't believe this is happening. Why
- 25:57Speaker 2: is the Trump administration... allowing this to happen? How come
- 26:01Speaker 2: people like Tom Kane Jr. aren't out in front in
- 26:04Speaker 2: this demanding that something be done?
- 26:06Speaker 1: Well, what I would do is I would switch it
- 26:08Speaker 1: and say, look at Delaney, where they house the illegals.
- 26:12Speaker 1: They can barely have an air sandwich. They have no amenities.
- 26:17Speaker 1: And here's Sean Buff Daddy Combs at federal taxpayers' expense. Now,
- 26:20Speaker 1: she would be right about that if she used the
- 26:22Speaker 1: correlation and say, look how he's being treated like the
- 26:26Speaker 1: Prince of Bel-Air. It's unfathomable. Now, if you're the head
- 26:31Speaker 1: of Corrections, or the DOJ, remember, DOJ's responsible for this.
- 26:35Speaker 1: The Attorney General is going to have to make some
- 26:37Speaker 1: kind of statement. Remember Barr, the Attorney General, when Jeffrey
- 26:41Speaker 1: Epstein committed suicide? Yeah, yeah, sure he did. Remember Barr
- 26:48Speaker 1: took control of the whole... We got to see the
- 26:50Speaker 1: Attorney General on this saying, no, no, no, there are
- 26:53Speaker 1: consequences for the actions of... for any of the correctional
- 26:56Speaker 1: officers involved, inmates involved, and most specifically with transferring P.
- 27:00Speaker 1: Diddy out for the rest of his sentence to a
- 27:03Speaker 1: tough jail where none of that nonsense is permitted.
- 27:06Speaker 2: We will see how much Donald Trump thinks about this
- 27:11Speaker 2: case and if he wants to get involved because you're
- 27:14Speaker 2: saying it's the Attorney General. You know Trump's going to
- 27:16Speaker 2: be asked about it. There's no question Trump's going to
- 27:20Speaker 2: be asked about it. But if he really doesn't want
- 27:23Speaker 2: to answer anything about it, He'll put Todd Blanch out.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Todd Blanch will be out first making a statement. He's
- 27:29Speaker 2: got a tablet in his jail cell. Guess what he
- 27:32Speaker 2: watches over and over on his computer that's been provided
- 27:37Speaker 2: to him? Porn?
- 27:38Speaker 1: Nope. The Netflix documentary series done by 50 Cent about him,
- 27:43Speaker 1: Sean Combs, The Reckoning. Apparently, according to the inmates, he
- 27:48Speaker 1: watches it over and over and over, binge-watching, binge-watching, While
- 27:53Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's getting excited when he goes
- 27:56Speaker 1: onto his cell phone, to that Instagram account with his
- 27:59Speaker 1: old girlfriend, and he's getting all sexed up. Where's the
- 28:02Speaker 1: baby oil? Hey, you make it.
- 28:03Speaker 2: Come over here.
- 28:05Speaker 1: It's time to service me.
- 28:06Speaker 2: This is getting bad now.
- 28:08Speaker 12: Please.
- 28:08Speaker 2: You know that's what's going on. It's 646 in the morning.
- 28:12Speaker 1: Doesn't matter. Castration is his cure. It's the only way.
- 28:15Speaker 1: It's the only way. When we come back.
- 28:18Speaker 2: Well, when Benjamin Netanyahu was here last week, he ripped...
- 28:23Speaker 2: Zoran Mamdani about how he treats Jews in this city,
- 28:27Speaker 2: and it resonated. Resonated so much that Zoran Mamdani came
- 28:32Speaker 2: out yesterday and said he's going to do something about it.
- 28:34Speaker 2: Never mentioned Netanyahu, just mentioned a plan. We'll tell you
- 28:38Speaker 2: what it is next. Benjamin Netanyahu was just here last
- 28:42Speaker 2: week at the UN and gave a speech that was tremendous.
- 28:49Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, the polls in Israel now
- 28:52Speaker 2: at the Knesset especially, show that he may have enough
- 28:56Speaker 2: votes to stay on. And it definitely is after that speech.
- 29:00Speaker 2: But a lot of the speech, at least a third
- 29:03Speaker 2: of it, was attacking New York Mayor Zorin Mamdani. And
- 29:07Speaker 2: apparently those punches hit. Mr.
- 29:10Speaker 13: Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many
- 29:16Speaker 13: Jews no longer feel safe in New York.
- 29:19Speaker 2: They talk to me. They tell me.
- 29:22Speaker 13: This isn't the city we remember. It changed so quickly. Now,
- 29:26Speaker 13: it's no wonder. You praise criminals convicted of supporting Hamas.
- 29:32Speaker 13: You count as friends people like Hassan Piker, who said
- 29:36Speaker 13: America deserved 9-11. America deserved 9-11.
- 29:40Speaker 2: 9-11. Some friends you have. It's vicious. It was a
- 29:44Speaker 2: vicious speech against Mamdani. It resonated in the Jewish community.
- 29:49Speaker 2: Zoran Mamdani couldn't just sit on his hands. So yesterday
- 29:53Speaker 2: he released a 35-page report to fight against anti-semitism and
- 30:00Speaker 2: hate crimes in new york.
- 30:03Speaker 14: City anti-semitism is real and it is growing here in
- 30:07Speaker 14: new york city while our jewish neighbors make up only
- 30:09Speaker 14: 12 of the population nypd statistics show that anti-semitic hate
- 30:14Speaker 14: crimes account for more than half of all confirmed hate
- 30:17Speaker 14: crimes this is not only unacceptable it's something we all
- 30:20Speaker 14: have an obligation to.
- 30:21Speaker 2: Change Yeah, he's talked about this $ 10 million that now
- 30:26Speaker 2: is going towards hate crimes that was already there. The
- 30:28Speaker 2: $ 10 million was already there. But he also talked about
- 30:32Speaker 2: now supporting programs to celebrate Jewish traditions.
- 30:37Speaker 14: Jewish New Yorkers should feel cherished and celebrated in the
- 30:40Speaker 14: most Jewish city in America. That's why we are investing
- 30:44Speaker 14: millions in Jewish cultural centers and nonprofits.
- 30:48Speaker 1: So I don't know.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Curtis, you know the city better than I do, and
- 30:50Speaker 2: you certainly know the Jewish community very well. Is that
- 30:53Speaker 2: going to be enough after the takedown of Netanyahu?
- 30:57Speaker 1: No, they both sides love it because it gets to
- 30:59Speaker 1: distract from the real issues that we need to have
- 31:02Speaker 1: being dealt with in New York City. Jews complain yet. 30%
- 31:06Speaker 1: of them voted for Zoran Mandami, right? So it's back
- 31:09Speaker 1: and forth. Zoran loves this because he's become an international figure.
- 31:13Speaker 1: So he spent $ 6 million as part of this combat
- 31:18Speaker 1: anti-Semitism program to beef up security around synagogues and shuls. Good.
- 31:24Speaker 1: Expand educational efforts by having field trips to the Museum
- 31:28Speaker 1: of Jewish Heritage. Will the schools actually do it? Remember,
- 31:32Speaker 1: principals make that decision. Principals are independent and autonomous. They
- 31:36Speaker 1: hire teachers. They set the program. So are they actually
- 31:40Speaker 1: going to take advantage of paid-for field trips to the
- 31:43Speaker 1: Museum of Jewish Heritage? We'll find out. But it wasn't
- 31:47Speaker 1: good enough. The Anti-Defamation League said, no, but you, you're
- 31:51Speaker 1: attacking Zionism. Man, it's like if you say to a
- 31:56Speaker 1: Jewish person now, they've redefined what being an anti-Semite is.
- 32:00Speaker 1: If you happen to be Jewish, Larry, and I said,
- 32:02Speaker 1: you know, are you more supportive of Israel or the
- 32:05Speaker 1: United States? You know, what's first, America first or Israel first?
- 32:09Speaker 1: And if you say, well, you know, my heart is
- 32:11Speaker 1: in Israel, my religious convictions are in Israel. And I say, well,
- 32:14Speaker 1: that's wrong. It should be America first. Do you know,
- 32:17Speaker 1: according to the Anti-Defamation League, I'm an anti-Semite. I know,
- 32:22Speaker 1: but Zoramandani's got a problem. He does have a problem.
- 32:25Speaker 2: And I'm not sure those 30% are going to be
- 32:27Speaker 2: with him anymore, but he knows he has a problem.
- 32:29Speaker 2: That's why he's doing this. But this $ 10 million, that's fregazi,
- 32:34Speaker 2: as you would say, because money's already been allocated. That
- 32:37Speaker 2: money's already been allocated. So it was already in the budget.
- 32:39Speaker 2: He's making it sound like it's brand new. And how
- 32:42Speaker 2: is that going to fight anti-Semitism that he's now going
- 32:46Speaker 2: to celebrate... cultural events in the Jewish community. He's not
- 32:52Speaker 2: doing anything to fight anti-Semitism. And regardless, forget about Israel,
- 32:57Speaker 2: forget about all of the talk around that and who's
- 33:01Speaker 2: an anti-Semite and who's pro-Israel. There is a problem in
- 33:04Speaker 2: New York City with hate crimes against Jews. We've reported
- 33:08Speaker 2: on it every single week. Something has to be done,
- 33:12Speaker 2: and it can't be just giving more money for Hanukkah.
- 33:15Speaker 2: It has to be police officers. It has to be
- 33:17Speaker 2: a crackdown.
- 33:18Speaker 1: Well, Julie Menon, last time I looked, she's Jewish, right?
- 33:21Speaker 2: Man, you want to blame... How about Zoran Mamdani? He's
- 33:25Speaker 2: the mayor.
- 33:26Speaker 1: Weren't they supposed to hire 500 more cops?
- 33:29Speaker 2: You will distract everyone.
- 33:31Speaker 1: Did Julie Menon do a pivot and shift on that?
- 33:34Speaker 2: He is the mayor of New York City. Blame him.
- 33:38Speaker 1: She was supposed to hire 500 more cops.
- 33:41Speaker 2: He can do that.
- 33:42Speaker 15: He said that, too. He did the same thing. And
- 33:44Speaker 15: by the way, Zoran Mamdadi, stay on the topic. If
- 33:47Speaker 15: you don't think B.B. is the problem, why don't you
- 33:49Speaker 15: look at Bono? Bono did such a great.
- 33:52Speaker 1: Song in the aftermath of October 7th, the anniversary coming
- 33:56Speaker 1: up three years since. He is now attacking B.B., He's saying,
- 34:02Speaker 1: what are you doing?
- 34:03Speaker 2: We're going to go to Bono now. Anything but not
- 34:05Speaker 2: attack Mamdani.
- 34:06Speaker 1: Who else? You are so disconnected with what's going on
- 34:09Speaker 1: out there.
- 34:10Speaker 2: Oh, I must be.
- 34:10Speaker 1: Because you listen to a few people in the Anti-Defamation League. No,
- 34:14Speaker 1: I don't. You know what they're urging?
- 34:15Speaker 2: I didn't listen to them at all.
- 34:16Speaker 1: In the West Bank, Bibi and his staff are urging
- 34:19Speaker 1: that all Palestinians go to Ireland.
- 34:22Speaker 2: That they leave the West Bank.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Anything and if i say that's wrong i'm an anti-semite.
- 34:29Speaker 2: No i would like to hear you say that this
- 34:32Speaker 2: guy is a great salesman but an awful mayor.
- 34:36Speaker 1: Well you better tell you better tell 30 percent of
- 34:38Speaker 1: the jews who voted for him in the primary and
- 34:40Speaker 1: in the general election and he's more popular in america
- 34:44Speaker 1: amongst jews than bb netanyahu and you've seen those polls.
- 34:48Speaker 2: What So what? There's anti-semitism. There's hate crimes in the city.
- 34:53Speaker 2: You want to talk about anything else?
- 34:55Speaker 1: Up next, we got to talk about what's going on
- 34:59Speaker 1: in Cornell, right?
- 35:01Speaker 2: Well, Cornell University in Ithaca, New York is in some
- 35:04Speaker 2: trouble here because it seems like it does appear like
- 35:10Speaker 2: they tried to cover up a gang rape. at Cornell University.
- 35:15Speaker 2: You've heard the story already, and this is getting out
- 35:18Speaker 2: now because the woman, Jane Doe, is suing Columbia University.
- 35:23Speaker 2: And from the information coming out, I don't believe they
- 35:26Speaker 2: have a leg to stand on. They should settle this
- 35:28Speaker 2: thing quickly because the DA is now involved. A lot
- 35:32Speaker 2: of people across the country, journalists are involved, breaking stories
- 35:36Speaker 2: left and right, and every single one of them, Cornell
- 35:39Speaker 2: University comes out looking worse. So this happened in 2024.
- 35:45Speaker 2: There was a frat party. A woman goes to the
- 35:49Speaker 2: frat party, and apparently she was open to having sex,
- 35:53Speaker 2: but they gave her ketamine. They also gave her marijuana
- 35:56Speaker 2: and a lot of alcohol. And so she had sex
- 36:00Speaker 2: at first with two guys, and then they put out
- 36:03Speaker 2: on Snapchat that other guys should come because guess what?
- 36:07Speaker 2: There's this woman that's having sex with everybody. And so
- 36:11Speaker 2: then there was this gang rape. And this woman has
- 36:14Speaker 2: been very honest about everything. Everything. And yet, somehow, all
- 36:21Speaker 2: the things that she was honest about right after this
- 36:25Speaker 2: rape didn't make it to the county prosecutor. It was hidden.
- 36:31Speaker 2: And I have to really give praise to Hassa Saidi,
- 36:36Speaker 2: who is a reporter for CBS New York. who was
- 36:40Speaker 2: able to get a copy that apparently they claim didn't exist,
- 36:47Speaker 2: get a copy of when the woman, Jane Doe, spoke
- 36:51Speaker 2: to campus police. This is three weeks later. Because she
- 36:55Speaker 2: didn't come forward right away. And that's not unusual with
- 36:59Speaker 2: rape victims. But she came forward. Now, Cornell University said
- 37:04Speaker 2: from the beginning, she said she wasn't raped. I want
- 37:08Speaker 2: you to hear her. What Hasa Saidi found out.
- 37:12Speaker 16: Asked whether she was okay with the initial encounter, she says, quote, yeah,
- 37:16Speaker 16: as much as I can be, because again, I was
- 37:17Speaker 16: super drunk when I got there, but I was pretty
- 37:20Speaker 16: okay with all of this. She adds, quote, and then
- 37:23Speaker 16: of course, I was being hit at the same time,
- 37:26Speaker 16: physically hit very, very hard. When describing later events, she says, quote,
- 37:31Speaker 16: I can say with 100% confidence I was raped.
- 37:35Speaker 2: So Saidi then went to the district attorney in Tompkins
- 37:39Speaker 2: County who passed on charges early and said to him,
- 37:43Speaker 2: why did you read this report? Did you read this?
- 37:47Speaker 16: And she says, quote, I can say with 100 percent
- 37:50Speaker 16: confidence I was raped.
- 37:52Speaker 5: That wasn't information that I had, first of all. Second
- 37:56Speaker 5: of all, that is a legal conclusion. If she had
- 37:59Speaker 5: said those words, we certainly would want to have explored
- 38:02Speaker 5: that more.
- 38:03Speaker 16: Well, according to the transcript, she did say those words.
- 38:07Speaker 5: Well, like I said, that wasn't provided to me.
- 38:10Speaker 2: By Cornell University held that back, gave them lots of
- 38:15Speaker 2: other information, but held back the most important piece of
- 38:20Speaker 2: information I will tell you that she is Cornell University
- 38:25Speaker 2: is in a lot of trouble they're gonna have to
- 38:27Speaker 2: pay this off there are going to be rape charges
- 38:31Speaker 2: there's no question by the way Curtis the disciplinary action
- 38:36Speaker 2: they gave to the seven that they're charging that they're
- 38:39Speaker 2: disciplining two of them were expelled yeah and they were
- 38:42Speaker 2: apparently the first two they called everybody else everybody else
- 38:47Speaker 2: got like detention And a couple of them got writing
- 38:51Speaker 2: assignments for a gang rape.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Creative writing. They had to prove that they were good
- 38:56Speaker 1: at creative writing. How ridiculous. It's a mess. The other
- 39:01Speaker 1: group of journalists I didn't realize were actually digging all along.
- 39:06Speaker 1: As you mentioned, the CBS reporter who just broke this
- 39:08Speaker 1: news that they had the information all along Cornell University,
- 39:12Speaker 1: their public safety division, that she said I had been
- 39:15Speaker 1: raped with a student journalist. Apparently, the local publication, I
- 39:20Speaker 1: got a chance to meet them last year when I
- 39:22Speaker 1: spoke there. A lot of them, newspaper, radio, you know,
- 39:27Speaker 1: they were digging, digging, digging. And, you know, university was
- 39:31Speaker 1: trying to tell them, no, no, no, don't make a
- 39:33Speaker 1: big issue of it. So it's all come to the forefront. Now,
- 39:36Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Hochul's jumped in. That's right. We
- 39:39Speaker 1: want a complete investigation. Tish James, the attorney general, complete investigation.
- 39:44Speaker 1: And then you look to the local DA in that county.
- 39:48Speaker 1: And he goes, well, I only have nine investigators, and
- 39:51Speaker 1: I really didn't know what it was. You would have
- 39:54Speaker 1: thought a normal DA would have been a little more curious,
- 39:58Speaker 1: would have said to one of his investigators, hey, Joe,
- 40:02Speaker 1: why don't you go in there, talk to the people
- 40:03Speaker 1: you know, they're public safety, Cornell University, the local cops.
- 40:07Speaker 1: something that doesn't seem right here. Apparently, he chose to
- 40:10Speaker 1: do nothing. You know, he said, it wasn't brought to
- 40:13Speaker 1: my attention, so I wasn't going to deal with it.
- 40:15Speaker 2: It was brought to his attention, and he did investigate it,
- 40:18Speaker 2: and Cornell University lied to him. And Cornell University has
- 40:22Speaker 2: been lying all along, and they've been putting out different
- 40:25Speaker 2: press releases and trying to slime this woman, and instead
- 40:29Speaker 2: of just owning up to what happened on their campus.
- 40:33Speaker 2: And so this– I would not blame this guy because
- 40:35Speaker 2: he went there and he got all the information they
- 40:38Speaker 2: gave him and he interviewed people and that was withheld
- 40:42Speaker 2: from him. The most damning piece of information was withheld
- 40:46Speaker 2: from him. And so– Cornell University is embarrassing right now.
- 40:52Speaker 2: And they need to come out and deal with this
- 40:54Speaker 2: because it's going to get worse and it's going to
- 40:56Speaker 2: get worse and it's going to get worse. Every single
- 40:59Speaker 2: investigative reporter in the country is now going to be
- 41:02Speaker 2: focused on Cornell University because a story like this doesn't
- 41:06Speaker 2: come along all the time. And it's sickening. It's sickening.
- 41:11Speaker 2: But for investigative reporters, they smell blood now because if
- 41:14Speaker 2: they covered this up, they covered some other stuff up.
- 41:18Speaker 1: Sure. In 2025, they report having had 12 hearings on
- 41:22Speaker 1: this particular issue with faculty and staff, and nobody spoke
- 41:27Speaker 1: up from the faculty and staff. Now, you know, generally,
- 41:31Speaker 1: there are people on the faculty and staff who don't
- 41:33Speaker 1: really care about what the administration thinks. If they feel
- 41:37Speaker 1: there was an indiscretion or a violation of this woman,
- 41:39Speaker 1: they would have said something, but they were complicit. They
- 41:42Speaker 1: were complicit. It's sort of like the whole campus was
- 41:45Speaker 1: in lockdown, except for the student journalists who kept digging, digging, digging.
- 41:50Speaker 1: And obviously, journalists are doing what they do best, which
- 41:53Speaker 1: is saying, where there's smoke, you know, there's fire. As
- 41:56Speaker 1: you pointed out, there's probably other situations that have occurred,
- 42:00Speaker 1: if not most recently in the past, that are somewhat
- 42:03Speaker 1: similar to this.
- 42:04Speaker 2: And I will tell you what normally happens here, because
- 42:06Speaker 2: I've been on the other side of this as an
- 42:08Speaker 2: investigative reporter. the defense now has access to everything and
- 42:13Speaker 2: they better not hide anything from them because they can
- 42:16Speaker 2: be criminally charged if they withhold information. So I'm not
- 42:20Speaker 2: going to say that this defense attorney that's suing now
- 42:24Speaker 2: Columbia gave that information to CBS, but I will say
- 42:29Speaker 2: in the past when I've done these stories, that's where
- 42:32Speaker 2: the information comes from. And everybody knows that if you
- 42:36Speaker 2: want to find out what's really going on, You go
- 42:39Speaker 2: to the person that can make the most money off
- 42:41Speaker 2: of this. And so I would think that may be
- 42:45Speaker 2: the case here, but I'm not going to say that because,
- 42:48Speaker 2: you know, this guy sues people. I don't want to
- 42:50Speaker 2: get sued, so I don't know that at all. I'm
- 42:52Speaker 2: just telling you what happens in most of these cases,
- 42:56Speaker 2: in many of these cases.
- 42:57Speaker 1: So they call the Cornell 7. We know the ringleader
- 43:02Speaker 1: has been identified. Apparently he was working for Wells Fargo.
- 43:06Speaker 1: the banking firm in Charlotte, North Carolina. He was fired
- 43:09Speaker 1: as a result of that. He had another colleague of his,
- 43:13Speaker 1: you know, his, what do we call it, frat brother,
- 43:16Speaker 1: who was totally complicit with him in organizing this whole
- 43:20Speaker 1: thing and then eventually continuing to put out those Snapchats
- 43:24Speaker 1: to their frat brothers like, hey, come get some.
- 43:28Speaker 2: Stores open is what they said. Stores open.
- 43:31Speaker 1: So what about the fact that there are those now
- 43:34Speaker 1: who are going after all seven, are posting their photos,
- 43:38Speaker 1: their background information, because some are saying they must be
- 43:42Speaker 1: held accountable. Others are saying, but they're being harassed because
- 43:46Speaker 1: those others haven't been charged with anything. How as a
- 43:49Speaker 1: journalist would you handle that? The fact that independent and autonomous,
- 43:55Speaker 1: call them vigilantes, so to speak, have acquired this information
- 43:59Speaker 1: and are just posting it up all over the place
- 44:01Speaker 1: on the others who are considered part of the Cornell 7.
- 44:05Speaker 2: Well, what they're doing is legal. If they want to
- 44:08Speaker 2: take legal action against them, if the people want to
- 44:10Speaker 2: take legal action against them, they can choose to do that.
- 44:12Speaker 2: I doubt they will. But what they're doing is legal.
- 44:16Speaker 2: All I would say to people is there is a
- 44:18Speaker 2: legal process for that. These people are going to be investigated.
- 44:23Speaker 2: It's going to a grand jury already, and they're probably
- 44:25Speaker 2: going to be charged. Let it play out. They've got
- 44:28Speaker 2: a rough enough life right now. But let me talk
- 44:31Speaker 2: about it because I think we talk about the people
- 44:34Speaker 2: that commit the crimes or allegedly commit the crimes more
- 44:37Speaker 2: than we talk about the victim. This poor girl was
- 44:40Speaker 2: 20 years old. She was 20 years old. Now, she
- 44:44Speaker 2: made some stupid decisions in this. There's no question. And
- 44:47Speaker 2: she admits to that, by the way. She fully admits
- 44:50Speaker 2: to that. But after what happened, her life was ruined.
- 44:53Speaker 2: She left Cornell. She pulled out of the university and
- 44:57Speaker 2: she didn't want to go back to another college right away.
- 44:59Speaker 2: I'm not sure if she is right now. We're going
- 45:01Speaker 2: to find more about her from the defense attorney as
- 45:04Speaker 2: they start to release more information. But I will tell
- 45:07Speaker 2: you right now, and maybe I should stop calling the
- 45:09Speaker 2: defense attorney because he's actually suing Cornell University. But I
- 45:15Speaker 2: will tell you right now that this is going to
- 45:17Speaker 2: haunt this poor woman for the rest of her life.
- 45:20Speaker 2: And she really made some poor choices, but at a
- 45:24Speaker 2: certain point, she didn't want this to happen to her anymore.
- 45:28Speaker 2: And another time, we should talk about the state law
- 45:30Speaker 2: that allows this to happen.
- 45:32Speaker 1: Yeah, the New York rape law excludes people who were
- 45:35Speaker 1: voluntarily intoxicated.
- 45:38Speaker 6: Right.
- 45:39Speaker 1: So you would think this is such a me too state, right?
- 45:43Speaker 1: Let's face it. New York is a me too state,
- 45:46Speaker 1: very progressive, very liberal. There are now more female legislators
- 45:50Speaker 1: in Albany than there are male legislators. You would say,
- 45:55Speaker 1: how did this exist? This New York rape law that
- 45:58Speaker 1: excludes people who were voluntarily intoxicated.
- 46:01Speaker 2: They're pushing to change it right now. And you're not
- 46:03Speaker 2: going to believe this. And yes, we should talk about
- 46:06Speaker 2: this tomorrow because there's pushback. There's a whole other side
- 46:09Speaker 2: that's pushing back against it. So that'll come up tomorrow.
- 46:13Speaker 2: But coming up in the next segment, Dolly Parton, even
- 46:17Speaker 2: after her death, has a brand new coffee out. And
- 46:20Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, she did an ad for it
- 46:23Speaker 2: before she died. You're going to hear it coming up next. Man,
- 46:27Speaker 2: she was a brilliant businesswoman. Plus a chance to see
- 46:30Speaker 2: Stevie Wonder's sold-out concert. at msg at 825 also starting
- 46:36Speaker 2: monday wor has nine chances every weekday to score a
- 46:42Speaker 2: grand in your hand listen for the keyword every hour
- 46:46Speaker 2: from nine o'clock in the morning till five at night
- 46:49Speaker 2: enter it on your website enter it on our website
- 46:53Speaker 2: not your website you won't win that way enter it
- 46:55Speaker 2: on our website and you could win a thousand dollars
- 46:59Speaker 2: again this is all starting on monday Kelly Parton's not
- 47:05Speaker 2: only a great songwriter and a great singer and a
- 47:08Speaker 2: great actress, but man, is she an incredible businesswoman. I
- 47:13Speaker 2: don't know if you've heard this. It just happened recently.
- 47:16Speaker 2: It did happen before she died, but it was only
- 47:19Speaker 2: sold locally. She has a coffee out that's now going
- 47:24Speaker 2: to go national. It's called Cup of Ambition. Now, if
- 47:27Speaker 2: you're trying to figure out, man, I've heard that term before.
- 47:30Speaker 2: Here it is. Once in this past year. And they
- 47:35Speaker 2: named the truck stop Cup of Ambition after her song.
- 47:38Speaker 2: And she got the idea, hey, I'm going to go
- 47:42Speaker 2: national with a coffee brand called Cup of Ambition. It
- 47:46Speaker 2: was only sold.
- 47:48Speaker 1: At that truck stop. You know, Larry, I've never seen
- 47:50Speaker 1: you so excited after yesterday's program, National Coffee Day, in
- 47:54Speaker 1: which you told the audience you drink a minimum of
- 47:59Speaker 1: 14 caffeinated cups of coffee a day. Fourteen. Natalie, can
- 48:04Speaker 1: you order some of this Dolly Parton Jabba?
- 48:07Speaker 2: I already have. I went to Amazon and already got some.
- 48:10Speaker 2: I want to try it. And Dawn does as well.
- 48:14Speaker 2: It's available on Amazon. Let me just play the commercial
- 48:16Speaker 2: she did right before she died.
- 48:19Speaker 17: When I was filming 9 to 5, I wrote a
- 48:21Speaker 17: song called 9 to 5, and it started out by saying,
- 48:24Speaker 17: pour myself a cup of ambition. But I thought the
- 48:27Speaker 17: cup of ambition would be a fantastic name for a
- 48:30Speaker 17: coffee brand. And I've been working towards this for over
- 48:33Speaker 17: 40 years, and I think you won't be able to
- 48:35Speaker 17: find a better cup of coffee out there.
- 48:38Speaker 2: She says it like you.
- 48:39Speaker 17: She can use some more ambition.
- 48:42Speaker 1: Cup of coffee.
- 48:45Speaker 5: Wow.
- 48:46Speaker 12: That's amazing.
- 48:46Speaker 1: You know what we didn't figure out yesterday when we
- 48:50Speaker 1: Heard your revelation of drinking 14 cups of caffeinated coffee
- 48:53Speaker 1: a day. I may have exaggerated. When you were first
- 48:56Speaker 1: drinking coffee, was it chock full of nuts, the heavenly coffee,
- 49:00Speaker 1: or Folgers? What was your favorite coffee growing up?
- 49:03Speaker 2: Growing up? I didn't drink coffee growing up. I didn't
- 49:06Speaker 2: drink coffee until I got into my first newsroom, and
- 49:09Speaker 2: it was the only thing that was free. And that's
- 49:11Speaker 2: when I started drinking coffee. I didn't drink coffee in college.
- 49:14Speaker 2: But let me tell you, the coffee in newsrooms is horrible.
- 49:17Speaker 2: It was free. Did I mention free?
- 49:19Speaker 5: And.
- 49:20Speaker 2: It was fresh brewed, too.
- 49:21Speaker 10: Our newsroom, the coffee's amazing.
- 49:23Speaker 2: It is amazing. And a lot now since Keurig. Ever
- 49:27Speaker 2: since Keurig, coffee got really, really good. Let's go to
- 49:32Speaker 2: your talkbacks. The first one wants to talk about Cornell
- 49:34Speaker 2: University and the rape charges there.
- 49:36Speaker 18: About this Cornell case, and you two were probably.
- 49:39Speaker 2: much more knowledgeable than me.
- 49:41Speaker 18: If you know of a crime and you don't report
- 49:44Speaker 18: or provide information, is that not a crime? Couldn't charges
- 49:49Speaker 18: be pressed against Cornell for holding back that statement, which
- 49:53Speaker 18: could be evidence of a crime?
- 49:56Speaker 2: Yes. Yes, you're right. But they're not going to be charged.
- 50:00Speaker 2: And nobody that saw it or witnessed it are going
- 50:02Speaker 2: to be charged either. They're looking for witnesses at that point. Well,
- 50:05Speaker 2: Cornell's got to worry about this lawsuit because at this point,
- 50:08Speaker 2: it's looking really, really bad. this settlement is going to
- 50:12Speaker 2: be huge.
- 50:12Speaker 1: Remember that final Seinfeld episode where they were taking a
- 50:16Speaker 1: plane to Europe, they had a land in Maine, and
- 50:20Speaker 1: they witnessed a crime, and they didn't say anything, and
- 50:22Speaker 1: they got arrested, remember, for knowing of a crime but
- 50:26Speaker 1: not reporting it? This would be interesting. There were obviously
- 50:29Speaker 1: people who knew that crime was being committed. I like
- 50:33Speaker 1: that idea of making them somewhat culpable.
- 50:35Speaker 2: We'll see. I mean, we'll see. That would set a
- 50:37Speaker 2: precedent across the country that... would be really dangerous or
- 50:42Speaker 2: really good.
- 50:43Speaker 1: We'll find out. We'll see if it happens. Now let's
- 50:46Speaker 1: talk about coffee.
- 50:47Speaker 19: Yesterday you were talking about the different coffees, decaf and whatever.
- 50:53Speaker 19: And yes, decaf is gross. But the worst, the absolute worst,
- 51:00Speaker 19: has got to be this new mushroom coffee. I could
- 51:05Speaker 19: gag just.
- 51:06Speaker 5: Thinking about it.
- 51:07Speaker 19: Mushrooms first thing in the morning. I don't think so.
- 51:11Speaker 1: No, I think because of her age, she doesn't understand.
- 51:15Speaker 1: It shrooms in the coffee. It's not the coffee. It's
- 51:19Speaker 1: not the caffeine. It's shroom coffee. It's like you get
- 51:22Speaker 1: a psychedelic attack.
- 51:24Speaker 20: No, there is a thing with.
- 51:26Speaker 4: mushroom coffee oh there is yeah it's all the rage
- 51:29Speaker 4: right now it's supposed to have lots of health benefits
- 51:32Speaker 4: you know good for your gut and antioxidants and it's
- 51:36Speaker 4: coffee and it is.
- 51:37Speaker 1: Have you have you had no.
- 51:38Speaker 10: Because it sounds disgusting i agree.
- 51:41Speaker 2: With her you have to try it so i went
- 51:44Speaker 2: to ai Mushroom coffee is a blend of regular coffee
- 51:47Speaker 2: and medical mushroom extracts designed to provide steady energy with
- 51:54Speaker 2: fewer jitters. I don't know. I think Curtis might be right.
- 51:58Speaker 1: I think there's shrooms. There's shrooms in that coffee.
- 52:01Speaker 2: It gives you some energy and fewer jitters. Now let's
- 52:06Speaker 2: get the Daria Albinger with the 730 News. Daria.
- 52:09Speaker 3: They also make a hot chocolate with it. And I
- 52:12Speaker 3: tried it. Yeah, because they say it's supposed to make
- 52:14Speaker 3: you fall asleep. It's disgusting.
- 52:16Speaker 17: Right?
- 52:16Speaker 3: It sounds nasty.
- 52:17Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
- 52:18Speaker 3: I don't want mushrooms in my chocolate.
- 52:19Speaker 2: I think, yeah, the warning should have been mushrooms.
- 52:23Speaker 1: Right.
- 52:23Speaker 2: Why are you drinking that? It's hot chocolate and mushrooms? No.
- 52:30Speaker 3: Yeah, it tasted just like you thought it would.
- 52:32Speaker 2: I'm glad you went in first.
- 52:34Speaker 3: Well, somebody's got to try it. Sunny and warmer today.
- 52:37Speaker 3: Clouds roll in this afternoon. I did it in the
- 52:38Speaker 3: name of research for a story. High 75 degrees. Operation
- 52:43Speaker 3: Inherent Resolve officially ends today. The last U.S. troops in
- 52:47Speaker 3: northern Iraq who took part in the 12-year-long mission against
- 52:50Speaker 3: ISIS are leaving. It's part of a plan that was
- 52:52Speaker 3: negotiated in 2024. The Pentagon says the terrorists were defeated
- 52:56Speaker 3: in 2019. A new report says Sean Diddy Combs is
- 53:00Speaker 3: still living the high life in prison.
- 53:02Speaker 7: That report from NBC News says Diddy has men who
- 53:05Speaker 7: cook and clean for him in his New Jersey federal prison.
- 53:09Speaker 7: make his bed, and give him massages. They say Combs
- 53:12Speaker 7: has an illegal cell phone and uses it to view
- 53:14Speaker 7: nude and sexually explicit images, has access to recreational antidepressants,
- 53:20Speaker 7: and booze smuggled in by guards, among other contraband privileges.
- 53:24Speaker 7: A spokesman for Combs said the media is portraying, quote,
- 53:28Speaker 7: ordinary prison life as news. Andrew Whitman, WOR News.
- 53:32Speaker 3: The City Council holds a hearing today on a series
- 53:34Speaker 3: of bills that are designed to improve e-bike and e-scooter safety.
- 53:38Speaker 3: One would create a rebate and trade-in program for bikes
- 53:41Speaker 3: that go faster than the legal 25-mile-per-hour limit. Well, we
- 53:45Speaker 3: are not even close to Christmas. In fact, it's not
- 53:48Speaker 3: even Halloween. But the people at Rockefeller Center are already
- 53:52Speaker 3: talking about that tree.
- 53:53Speaker 21: There's no word yet on height, weight, where it's from,
- 53:56Speaker 21: or whether it's even been selected yet. But we're being
- 53:59Speaker 21: asked to mark our calendars for its arrival. It'll be
- 54:02Speaker 21: trucked into New York City's Rockefeller Center Plaza on November 7th.
- 54:07Speaker 21: Then it'll be hoisted into place and decorated with a
- 54:11Speaker 21: Swarovski crystal tree topper and 50,000 multicolored LED lights. The
- 54:16Speaker 21: tree lighting is set for December 2nd. Sarah Lee Kessler,

- 54:21Speaker 3: The Yankees win game one of their AL wildcard series
- 54:24Speaker 3: against Boston. Game two is tonight. The Liberty upsets top-ranked
- 54:27Speaker 3: Minnesota to move ahead in the WNBA playoffs. And the
- 54:30Speaker 3: Rangers open their season with a loss to Boston. Next news,
- 54:33Speaker 3: 8 o'clock, bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710 WOR.
- 54:39Speaker 1: Ah, let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, up next,
- 54:42Speaker 1: he's right on time. With that AI summit, no, it's
- 54:47Speaker 1: not what Trump called it, SI or something. We got
- 54:50Speaker 1: to ask Rich DeMuro, our tech expert, because it looked
- 54:53Speaker 1: like all those experts were in a hostage photo with
- 54:57Speaker 1: the president. We'll get more on that. Plus, remember about music.
- 55:03Speaker 1: Our 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival had almost everyone under the
- 55:08Speaker 1: sun presenting, and it was done by Capital One. Now
- 55:11Speaker 1: you can relive all the big moments. It's streaming on
- 55:15Speaker 1: Disney Plus and Hulu. Beginning tomorrow. Right on time, Rich DeMuro.
- 55:21Speaker 1: Rich on Tech has heard Sunday nights from 8 to
- 55:24Speaker 1: 11 right here on WOR. And I noticed that you
- 55:29Speaker 1: were missing in action there, Rich. You were not part
- 55:31Speaker 1: of that massive summit about AI hosted by the president
- 55:35Speaker 1: at the White House yesterday. When they walked outside, it
- 55:39Speaker 1: looked to me like a hostage photo. The president was saying, oh,
- 55:44Speaker 1: we all agreed you're going to self-police and we're no
- 55:46Speaker 1: longer referring to it as artificial intelligence. But superintelligence, they
- 55:53Speaker 1: didn't seem like they were all in agreement to that.
- 55:56Speaker 1: Or were they?
- 55:58Speaker 2: Well, probably not.
- 55:59Speaker 22: But, you know, we've seen this before. Apple, when they
- 56:02Speaker 22: came out with AI, they don't call it AI. It
- 56:04Speaker 22: is Apple intelligence. So there is some this has been
- 56:09Speaker 22: done before. Let's put it that way. And so superintelligence.
- 56:12Speaker 22: Apple intelligence, artificial intelligence. It's all the same. It's making
- 56:16Speaker 22: our lives easier, but also more stressful because we're all
- 56:19Speaker 22: worried about this stuff in the future.
- 56:22Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 56:22Speaker 2: So did anything really happen at that meeting? I know
- 56:26Speaker 2: that they have some agreement in theory. I'm not sure
- 56:30Speaker 2: anything signed just yet, but is that going to be
- 56:34Speaker 2: enough for what we've been told about the draconian ending
- 56:38Speaker 2: that possibly may be ahead for us?
- 56:43Speaker 1: Well, we'll see.
- 56:44Speaker 22: We don't know what the ending of all this is
- 56:45Speaker 22: going to be. But yes, the companies did sign a
- 56:47Speaker 22: voluntary AI accord. We had representatives from Google, Meta, OpenAI, Anthropic, NVIDIA, XAI,
- 56:55Speaker 22: which is from Elon Musk. Apple, I don't believe, was
- 56:58Speaker 22: there this time around. But we do know Apple has
- 57:00Speaker 22: a pretty cozy relationship with the White House. But look,
- 57:03Speaker 22: this agreement is all about letting these companies do what
- 57:06Speaker 22: they do best. but also saying, look, we understand that
- 57:09Speaker 22: there are risks. We understand that there are downsides to this,
- 57:12Speaker 22: and we need you to be looking out for those.
- 57:14Speaker 22: And I think that this is probably an appropriate way
- 57:17Speaker 22: to do this right now because no one really knows.
- 57:20Speaker 22: All the doomsayers, all the doom and gloom, we don't
- 57:23Speaker 22: really know if that's going to happen. We don't know
- 57:24Speaker 22: if humanity is going to be wiped off the face
- 57:26Speaker 22: of this planet because of AI. What we do know
- 57:29Speaker 22: is that this is a race, and there are many,
- 57:31Speaker 22: many companies around the world that are all trying to
- 57:34Speaker 22: do this. And just because the U.S. slows down does
- 57:37Speaker 22: not mean anyone else is going to slow down. In fact,
- 57:39Speaker 22: we just saw the financials from Anthropic. I mean, that
- 57:43Speaker 22: company is burning through billions, billions of dollars a year.
- 57:47Speaker 22: And now, to me, it's very clear why these companies,
- 57:50Speaker 22: why Anthropic in particular, wanted to slow down because they
- 57:54Speaker 22: want to spend less because they're spending so much and
- 57:56Speaker 22: their IPO is coming up and they're saying, look, this
- 57:59Speaker 22: company is not as, you know, the financials may not
- 58:03Speaker 22: be as good in this business as you think right now.
- 58:06Speaker 22: Same thing happened with Amazon in the early days, and
- 58:08Speaker 22: look what happened to them. So we'll see what comes
- 58:11Speaker 22: of this. But, yes, the companies are signing a voluntary
- 58:14Speaker 22: oversight accord where they're saying, look, we're going to keep
- 58:16Speaker 22: track of this, and we're going to figure out ways
- 58:18Speaker 22: of making sure this stuff is safe.
- 58:20Speaker 1: Well, the president with the CEOs of these companies took
- 58:25Speaker 1: it upon himself to say, oh, neighborhoods and communities all
- 58:29Speaker 1: over America, they want these data filing centers. They really
- 58:32Speaker 1: want them. This will be good for them. This will
- 58:34Speaker 1: make them prosperous. Um, I don't think the president has
- 58:39Speaker 1: been paying attention to what's been going on in the
- 58:41Speaker 1: country or the rich. Are you aware of, uh, communities
- 58:45Speaker 1: that are clamoring to have data filing artificial intelligence centers
- 58:49Speaker 1: in their backyard?
- 58:51Speaker 22: I'm, I've not heard of many of those, but I mean,
- 58:55Speaker 22: we also saw the same thing. Remember when Amazon wanted
- 58:58Speaker 22: to do their, their headquarters to somewhere, uh, And they
- 59:01Speaker 22: put up this big thing where they said, okay, you
- 59:03Speaker 22: communities compete for this. You pitched to us which place
- 59:07Speaker 22: we should put this in. And nobody wanted it. Nobody
- 59:10Speaker 22: wanted Amazon to be in their backyard because they said, no,
- 59:13Speaker 22: it's probably eventually not good for us. You're going to
- 59:16Speaker 22: give this company all these tax breaks and all this stuff,
- 59:19Speaker 22: and you're going to promise all these jobs, and at
- 59:20Speaker 22: the end of the day, it's probably going to be
- 59:22Speaker 22: one big factory with a bunch of robots inside. And
- 59:25Speaker 22: so I think the same thing with data centers. It's
- 59:26Speaker 22: like the promise is there, oh, we're going to give
- 59:29Speaker 22: you jobs, we're going to give you the stimulus to
- 59:31Speaker 22: your neighborhood, but at the end of the day, we're
- 59:33Speaker 22: just using your water and your electricity, and what do
- 59:36Speaker 22: you get out of it? So I'm not seeing the
- 59:38Speaker 22: neighborhood's clamor for it, but that doesn't mean we don't
- 59:40Speaker 22: need these things. I think we're going to have to
- 59:42Speaker 22: take a different approach to how we build these data centers.
- 59:45Speaker 2: By the way, before I get to the question, I
- 59:47Speaker 2: want to comment on the dissertation or statement that you
- 59:50Speaker 2: made on AI. I thought it was brilliant, and I
- 59:52Speaker 2: agree with you a thousand percent. All right, now a question.
- 59:56Speaker 2: How about this? This is a little bit scary. Your
- 59:59Speaker 2: car may be sharing data with big tech. How is
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: that happening?
- 1:00:04Speaker 22: I mean, look, we kind of knew everything that's connected
- 1:00:06Speaker 22: to the internet is snitching on us. But yes, your car,
- 1:00:10Speaker 22: according to Consumer Reports, they did this study with the
- 1:00:13Speaker 22: university and they looked at 15 major automakers and found that, yes,
- 1:00:18Speaker 22: all of this information that you have in your car,
- 1:00:21Speaker 22: a lot of it is being shared with data mining companies. Google, Meta, Amazon,
- 1:00:28Speaker 22: all on the receiving end of this data. And so
- 1:00:31Speaker 22: some of this data includes your location. It includes your
- 1:00:34Speaker 22: car's VIN number. And what these companies do, if you're
- 1:00:36Speaker 22: not familiar with the way these data collection companies work,
- 1:00:40Speaker 22: even if they have one key piece of your information,
- 1:00:43Speaker 22: they don't need everything.
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: They need your VIN.
- 1:00:45Speaker 22: And they will find everything else out about you by
- 1:00:47Speaker 22: pulling all of the databases that include your information. They
- 1:00:50Speaker 22: can use your email address, your phone number, whatever you do.
- 1:00:53Speaker 22: Like when you go to a store and you give
- 1:00:54Speaker 22: them your phone number for the loyalty rewards program.
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: Oh, no big deal. It's just my phone number.
- 1:00:59Speaker 22: Well, they take that phone number and they instantly put
- 1:01:01Speaker 22: it into a thousand different databases that give them every
- 1:01:04Speaker 22: piece of information they need to know about you down
- 1:01:07Speaker 22: to what scent candle that you like.
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: And that's what's happening here.
- 1:01:11Speaker 22: Same thing with the cars. Bottom line, guys, You've got
- 1:01:14Speaker 22: to go into your app and try to turn off
- 1:01:17Speaker 22: any sort of opt-out setting that you can that says
- 1:01:20Speaker 22: share my data.
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: Turn it all off.
- 1:01:22Speaker 22: You don't need to help GM or whoever else use
- 1:01:25Speaker 22: your data in all these ways.
- 1:01:27Speaker 2: That's great advice. Flock, I hope, Flock doesn't know about
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: this because they're going to want to tap in as well.
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: Rich DeMuro, Rich on Tech, is heard Sunday nights from
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: 8 to 11 p.m. on WOR. By the way, you
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: can reach out to Rich and see what he has
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: to say all week long at Rich on Tech on Instagram.
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: Thanks a lot, Rich. Have a good week. Thanks, Larry.
- 1:01:49Speaker 22: Thanks, Curtis.
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: When we come back, guess what? Natalie Migliore is back,
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: and she's talking to New Yorkers about what else? The Yankees.
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: The Beat on the Street, next.
- 1:02:02Speaker 23: In the.
- 1:02:03Speaker 1: Now, it's 710WOR Speed on the Street with Natalie Migliore. Oh,
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: we all had separation anxiety for the time you were away,
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: Natalie Migliore. But you're back, and you were in the
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: streets this morning, and you've come up to the suites.
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: Yankees win! Yankees win! Yankees win! Tell me, that was
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: the question you asked? Yeah, what a.
- 1:02:26Speaker 20: Morning to come back to. I missed you guys. It's
- 1:02:29Speaker 20: great to be back. I thought about you guys the
- 1:02:32Speaker 20: whole time. I can't wait to tell you all the
- 1:02:33Speaker 20: stories about my travels in Brazil. But we'll talk about
- 1:02:38Speaker 20: that off air. But anyway, I missed you guys, but
- 1:02:40Speaker 20: it's great to be back to a Yankees win. I
- 1:02:43Speaker 20: saw tons of hats out on the street. One guy
- 1:02:46Speaker 20: decked out in his Letterman jacket, letting everyone know He's
- 1:02:50Speaker 20: celebrating this morning, all right? And he wasn't the only one,
- 1:02:54Speaker 20: as I stopped several people wearing hats on the street
- 1:02:57Speaker 20: to talk about the game.
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: That's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing.
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: I think it's about time to do something good.
- 1:03:05Speaker 23: They've been losing a lot lately, but new players have
- 1:03:07Speaker 23: been coming up, so let's see what happens.
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: Well, I thought it was terrific.
- 1:03:11Speaker 24: The home run in the bottom of the eighth was
- 1:03:13Speaker 24: the best, the grand slam, but it was my first
- 1:03:15Speaker 24: ever Yankee game, and I'm It was pretty.
- 1:03:18Speaker 2: Dope, man.
- 1:03:20Speaker 10: Wait, you went or you watched it at home?
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: I did attend.
- 1:03:23Speaker 3: Can you believe that.
- 1:03:24Speaker 10: That was your first game ever?
- 1:03:25Speaker 24: I could not believe it. I could not believe it.
- 1:03:28Speaker 24: One tall boy in, and then it was on and popping.
- 1:03:31Speaker 10: Yeah, all you needed was a little bit.
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: One tall boy in.
- 1:03:36Speaker 20: And then the bats were alive, and so was he. Okay,
- 1:03:40Speaker 20: so it's one win down, one more to go for
- 1:03:42Speaker 20: the Yanks. Cam Schlittler shut down the Boston Red Sox lineup.
- 1:03:47Speaker 20: striking out 10 batters as he pitched into the seventh inning.
- 1:03:51Speaker 20: The question remains, though, you know, there's an obvious piece
- 1:03:54Speaker 20: missing here. Do fans think the Yanks can keep it
- 1:03:57Speaker 20: up without Judge? 99, spending the summer sidelined with a
- 1:04:03Speaker 20: rib injury, and now he's got a strained right calf.
- 1:04:07Speaker 13: Yeah, I do.
- 1:04:08Speaker 4: Because he really hasn't shown anything in the playoffs lately.
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: They possibly can. New York has always been that way.
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: Without a judge, they're doing a good job right now.
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: So it's awesome right now.
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: We're doing our thing.
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: Let's keep going.
- 1:04:20Speaker 12: Well, you can replace him, but he don't perform well
- 1:04:22Speaker 12: in the playoffs. But I'd rather him be in the
- 1:04:24Speaker 12: actual playoffs and see what he does this year.
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: So hopefully he'll come back.
- 1:04:29Speaker 24: Nah, I think it's a fickle situation. I don't think so.
- 1:04:33Speaker 24: Just because just how the league is set up, man.
- 1:04:36Speaker 24: You know, our timing is just phenomenal, you know.
- 1:04:40Speaker 18: The Yankees can go all the way without Judge Ben
- 1:04:42Speaker 18: Rice all the way.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: Big body Ben. But I tell you, Larry.
- 1:04:48Speaker 17: Wow.
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: He has not performed in the playoffs. Now, all rise,
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: you know, all hail Judge during the season. Nobody better.
- 1:04:56Speaker 1: But when it comes to the playoffs, he's left us
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: so disappointed in the past that now that he can't perform.
- 1:05:02Speaker 2: Leave him there.
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: Just play the guys who got us here.
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: It's amazing, though. One win and like, oh, we don't
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: need him. We don't need our best player.
- 1:05:10Speaker 20: I don't think that's it. I mean, they did have
- 1:05:11Speaker 20: to play the whole summer without him. They played a
- 1:05:15Speaker 20: long stretch without him.
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: Oh, I know that.
- 1:05:16Speaker 20: And I think I looked up a stat. It said
- 1:05:18Speaker 20: he has played 65 postseason games and his batting average
- 1:05:23Speaker 20: in it is 268.
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: No, it's bad.
- 1:05:26Speaker 10: In a postseason.
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: No power in the postseason.
- 1:05:30Speaker 10: Well, I'm just giving you the stat. You tell me
- 1:05:31Speaker 10: it's bad.
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: She's so proud of herself. Let her just live in
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: that moment for a second.
- 1:05:36Speaker 20: Well, speaking of, as that gentleman on the street called him,
- 1:05:39Speaker 20: Big Body Ben. Ben Rice is a powerhouse. He brought
- 1:05:43Speaker 20: in a homer and a grand slam last night. A
- 1:05:46Speaker 20: lot of fans want to be hopeful about how far
- 1:05:49Speaker 20: the Yankees are going to go, but they don't want
- 1:05:51Speaker 20: to jinx it.
- 1:05:52Speaker 18: Well, they've been known to always make it to the playoffs,
- 1:05:54Speaker 18: so hopefully.
- 1:05:56Speaker 15: Each time they get there, they'll learn something new and
- 1:05:59Speaker 15: use that as a motivation to get them to where
- 1:06:01Speaker 15: they need to go.
- 1:06:02Speaker 12: One thing about baseball, the best team don't always win,
- 1:06:04Speaker 12: but it's hard to beat the Dodgers. So if they
- 1:06:07Speaker 12: have to play the Dodgers, it might be a repeat
- 1:06:09Speaker 12: of the World Series before.
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: I think it was last year or the year before that,
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: but you never know.
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: I'm from Queens, baby.
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: I'm a Mets fan. Let's go, baby. We'll see you
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: next year.
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:06:19Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: Yeah, next year.
- 1:06:22Speaker 10: The Yankees.
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: In a decade.
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: You keep thinking that, pal.
- 1:06:25Speaker 10: Yeah, Steve Cohen, it's always next year.
- 1:06:28Speaker 20: Look, the Yankees are still focusing on this year because
- 1:06:31Speaker 20: they're still at the ball.
- 1:06:34Speaker 10: But the Mets will use.
- 1:06:36Speaker 20: Their offseason to restructure its front office and evaluate its roster.
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: I feel like I had.
- 1:06:41Speaker 5: To throw that in.
- 1:06:42Speaker 10: That's a lot of work going in there. But the
- 1:06:44Speaker 10: Yankees play once again tonight.
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: By the way, you missed being back For yesterday's discussion about.
- 1:06:51Speaker 8: Coffee, we discovered that Larry drinks 14 cups of caffeinated
- 1:06:57Speaker 8: coffee a day, and you went all the way to
- 1:07:00Speaker 8: Brazil to have a cup of coffee because of the
- 1:07:02Speaker 8: Frank Sinatra song.
- 1:07:03Speaker 20: Yes, and I'm going to edit a video together. I
- 1:07:06Speaker 20: videoed myself every cup of coffee, 14 cups a day.
- 1:07:08Speaker 2: You're amazing. You took the story about me drinking 14
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: cups and did a promo for yourself. That's really good.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: No, I'm impressed.
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: That wasn't a bad thing. I'm really impressed.
- 1:07:17Speaker 10: I never throw myself, but he said I went to...
- 1:07:19Speaker 10: I did. I wanted to go to Brazil to go for...
- 1:07:23Speaker 10: He's right. Curtis is right. That's why I wanted to
- 1:07:25Speaker 10: go to Brazil for the coffee.
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: Very quickly, you must go online, Natalie, to direct them
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: to the Zeppeli demonstration of Natalie Migliore and Curtis Lewa
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: at the San Gennaro Festival.
- 1:07:36Speaker 2: Shoot, I have nothing to promote. I have nothing to promote.
- 1:07:38Speaker 1: You know what?
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: Damn it.
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: I'm with you, Larry.
- 1:07:43Speaker 10: What drives you to drink 14 cups, though?
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: What do you mean?
- 1:07:46Speaker 10: Like, is it the taste of coffee or you need it?
- 1:07:49Speaker 8: Both.
- 1:07:50Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: Come on.
- 1:07:51Speaker 10: They've got an awful.
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: Lot of coffee in Brazil. Larry needs to discuss the
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy case yesterday. It was wild. But first, the
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: news at 8 o'clock.
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: I don't know if you watched or listened to or
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: heard about any of the... It might be a pretrial hearing.
- 1:08:09Speaker 2: It's supposed to be a pretrial hearing. But we don't
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: know if there's going to be another trial right now.
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: Because so many bizarre things happened in the Lindsay Clancy
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: hearing yesterday. Starting with the fact that a guy that
- 1:08:22Speaker 2: I really think is absolutely insane now is Kevin Reddington,
- 1:08:28Speaker 2: who got up and had the gumption, had the gall
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: to say all charges should be thrown out because there's
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: no proof that she did anything. Except for the fact
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: that she admitted to it. Except for the fact he
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: admitted to it. And except for the fact that the
- 1:08:49Speaker 2: DNA was found on the elastic that the kids were
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: strangled with. Other than that, I guess there's no evidence.
- 1:08:55Speaker 25: It was not even a horrendous investigation.
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: There was no investigation.
- 1:08:58Speaker 5: This entire.
- 1:09:00Speaker 25: case is based on speculation. Where is the admission? Where
- 1:09:06Speaker 25: does she say that she did this? And what's most
- 1:09:10Speaker 25: chilling is the fact that when she comes out of
- 1:09:15Speaker 25: this obvious coma that she is in that when she
- 1:09:20Speaker 25: comes out of it, your honor, heard the testimony from
- 1:09:23Speaker 25: the psychiatrist and from the doctors of Brigham and Women's Hospital.
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: She was told what happened.
- 1:09:30Speaker 25: She had no memory of what happened.
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: Well, she got a memory by trial time because she
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: said she did it. You said she did it. It
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: is the craziest thing, Curtis. I mean, this is a
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: Hail Mary pass. I understand. I understand they're trying anything.
- 1:09:46Speaker 2: But I think they threw everybody so much, they didn't
- 1:09:50Speaker 2: even get to, is there going to be another trial?
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: But it's sort of like, if you put him on
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: the witness stand right now, let's say a special hearing,
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: let's put Defense Counsel Kevin Reddington on the witness stand,
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: and the DA said, Remember, you acknowledged that your client
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: did these things. Didn't you?
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: No.
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
- 1:10:11Speaker 8: Here.
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: Here in the court transcript. You know, the stenographer. You
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: acknowledged that. You said, basically, let's move on to other things.
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: We're going to determine whether she gets criminally charged and
- 1:10:23Speaker 1: goes to jail. or goes into a psychiatric facility for
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: continued care. That was already agreed upon.
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: I know. It's nuts. It was so bizarre. I'm getting
- 1:10:37Speaker 2: to think that there's something wrong with this guy. I mean,
- 1:10:40Speaker 2: this is probably the last trial he'll ever have in
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: his career. He's up there in age.
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: He's 75. He was lovable in the first trial, remember.
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: He's going out on this.
- 1:10:49Speaker 5: Wow.
- 1:10:49Speaker 2: He wanted this to make him famous, and it didn't
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: happen for him. And now, I don't know if you heard,
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: but the attorney representing the holdout juror, Michael Desronville, is
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: talking about suing him.
- 1:11:03Speaker 5: Yep.
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: Because he said so many things outside the courtroom, but
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: inside the courtroom, Reddington went on a long diatribe about
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: that and said, I don't know what he's talking about.
- 1:11:16Speaker 2: I never said anything at the courtroom. We have video.
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: We have video of you live on television and you
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: outside the courtroom blasting him. Saying he lied, saying he
- 1:11:30Speaker 2: had reasonable doubt, saying he did this on purpose, saying
- 1:11:33Speaker 2: he's a plant, saying he had a past criminal record
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: and shouldn't have been on the jury.
- 1:11:39Speaker 5: No.
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: Is this guy crazy or is he just a liar?
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: Well, if you notice, as he was ranting and railing
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: about the holdout juror, the DA said, you know, we
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: really want to impose a gag order on him. And
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: the judge said, well, we don't we don't come back
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: together until November 2nd. That'll be our return follow up hearing.
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: But they want to basically tie him up, gag him,
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: make render him incapable of saying anything outside of a courtroom.
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: And the judge was good. You know, I he. listened
- 1:12:12Speaker 2: and he didn't go what are you talking about he
- 1:12:14Speaker 2: didn't do any of that he said let's solve I'll
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: look at the emotions and we'll decide on this later
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: was exactly what he should do buddy he is crazy
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: and and I'll tell you what this chore if you
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: listen to his attorney is going to sue.
- 1:12:29Speaker 9: Him Kevin Reddington is just upset that he lost out
- 1:12:33Speaker 9: on his legacy moment he was one vote away from
- 1:12:38Speaker 9: winning A trial that would have been the capstone of
- 1:12:41Speaker 9: his career, and he didn't get it. And he lost
- 1:12:46Speaker 9: his mind because of it.
- 1:12:47Speaker 2: He lost his mind because of it. I think he
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: might be right. He lost his mind.
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: Waiting in the shadows, another group of lawyers who practice
- 1:12:55Speaker 1: their martial art all day, I sue, are ready to
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: sue the hospitals and doctors who gave Lindsay Clancy care. Now,
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: assume that there's a settlement or they win. Who does
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: that money go to? I mean, who are they suing
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: on behalf of? The former husband? There's no children. All
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: three children she murdered. So who would that money go to?
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: Maybe it'll go to the defense fund of all the
- 1:13:23Speaker 2: women are now committing copycat killings and killing their kids
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: because of this trial, which was a scam, including a
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: woman in Chicago right now who hung her two-year-old from
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: the rafters. I mean, listen, this is insane. Everything that's
- 1:13:41Speaker 2: happening right now is insane, and it almost seems like
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: it's a TV show, that it's not real. And in
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: the circus of all this, and I keep coming back
- 1:13:53Speaker 2: to this because nobody else seems to, in the middle
- 1:13:57Speaker 2: of all this, all we should be caring about is
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: that three young children lost their lives, and they were
- 1:14:03Speaker 2: strangled to death. And that seems to be forgotten in
- 1:14:07Speaker 2: all of this, in the drama of the story between
- 1:14:09Speaker 2: the lawyers and the women and fighting for a greater cause. No,
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: that's not the issue. The issue is these three young children.
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: And I wish the media wouldn't fall for this junk. Now,
- 1:14:24Speaker 2: two things that stuck out to me. Lindsay Clancy had
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: been very stoic in all the previous court appearances, hearings
- 1:14:32Speaker 2: and such it. She smiled yesterday for the first time.
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: She was smiling.
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: She was probably laughing at her attorney.
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: Number two, I thought the judge, and I hope he
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: does this, by November 2nd when they return for the
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: follow-up hearing, I hope the judge who said he's considering
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: making the jury notes public does that. Because then it
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: won't be the 11 jurors saying one thing or half
- 1:14:59Speaker 1: of them and then the holdout jurors saying one. We'll
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: at least see what some of the jury notes were about.
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: You know, it's almost like putting a puzzle together. you know,
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: based on what everybody said, what is the evidence taking place.
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: And meantime, the old codger there, Kevin Reddington, said, well,
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: I wouldn't be ready for trial until June. My God,
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: at this rate, you're the one who's going to be
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: locked up in the psychiatric hospital in the rubber room. Man,
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: he just went nuts yesterday. It's like saying to somebody,
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: you got to be kidding. You do realize you spent
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: six weeks. Making the case that, yeah, my client is guilty.
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: She killed the three children. But there were circumstances. And
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: now all of a sudden he's saying, where's the DNA?
- 1:15:52Speaker 1: Where's the fingerprint evidence? Where's the different police department investigations
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: that took place? It's sort of like, oh, my God.
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: Here's the weird thing about the judge saying he's going
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: to release the jury notes. You know, in New York,
- 1:16:07Speaker 2: it's not allowed.
- 1:16:08Speaker 6: Correct.
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: It's all confidential. In New Jersey and Pennsylvania and most states,
- 1:16:12Speaker 2: it must not be in Massachusetts. I mean, I think
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: this judge has been pretty good and must not be
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: in Massachusetts today. I would think that would be a
- 1:16:20Speaker 2: violation to release that. I would love to see them too.
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: I'm with you. I would love to see them. But
- 1:16:28Speaker 2: if you want to serve on a jury and everything
- 1:16:31Speaker 2: you say now on some cases that could be murderers
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: and could come back to haunt you someday, you want
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: what's supposed to be private put into public domain?
- 1:16:43Speaker 13: I don't know.
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: There's part of me that says that's just wrong and
- 1:16:46Speaker 2: they should have a law saying what happens in the
- 1:16:49Speaker 2: jury room stays in the jury room. But this case
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: is a circus right now. And this judge has got
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: to bring things under control.
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: This guy shouted out, first thing in the hearing, where's
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: the evidence?
- 1:17:05Speaker 2: I know.
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: That she did this. There is no evidence.
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: I just played it a second ago. Yeah, I know.
- 1:17:10Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Where have you been these last few months?
- 1:17:14Speaker 2: No, listen, he's desperate at this point, which leads me
- 1:17:18Speaker 2: to believe, his desperation in that motion leads me to
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: believe that his talks with the prosecution about a possible
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: plea deal are not going well. And that's exactly what
- 1:17:31Speaker 2: I expected. I expect there's going to be a retrial,
- 1:17:34Speaker 2: and I expect that Lindsay Clancy is going to be
- 1:17:37Speaker 2: convicted of something. I don't think she's going to get
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: first degree. They may not even charge her again with
- 1:17:42Speaker 2: first degree. But she's going to get something, because I
- 1:17:45Speaker 2: think this was just a runaway jury. This was an aberration.
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: We'll see. You know, it's all going to play out.
- 1:17:52Speaker 2: Anything can happen on this case. Well, we saw that yesterday.
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: She is entitled to the counsel of her choice.
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: He's saying, I don't have a minute to breathe between
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: now and June 2nd. Sorry, judge. So does this mean
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: that all the trial analysts, all the reporters, you know,
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: would love you know, another six week or maybe eight
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: week ride, but just going to have to wait possibly
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: till June the second, if the DA actually decides to
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: go for a second round of prosecution.
- 1:18:21Speaker 2: Yeah. I, it's going to take a long time because
- 1:18:24Speaker 2: you know, they'd start everything over again and no justice
- 1:18:29Speaker 2: moves slow. You know that there's going to be these
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: depositions all over again and jury selection all over again.
- 1:18:35Speaker 2: So it's a shame. And in the meantime, let's just,
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: let's end this with remembering the three lives that were lost.
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: When we come back, I'll tell you what. There was
- 1:18:45Speaker 2: a high school football team that had a national record.
- 1:18:49Speaker 2: that just ended and they are on Long Island. That's
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: all I'm going to say because I want to talk
- 1:18:55Speaker 2: about it when we come back. Well, the longest winning
- 1:19:00Speaker 2: streak in the country for high school football has come
- 1:19:04Speaker 2: to an end. Listen to this. Garden City on Long Island.
- 1:19:09Speaker 2: They had a 68-game winning streak dating back to 2019,
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: November of 2019. And they lost it over the weekend.
- 1:19:23Speaker 2: And now the longest winning streak in the area, at least,
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: belongs to Massapequa, who beat them. But man, was it
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: a game. And some of the people that cover... High
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: school sports says it was the best game they ever saw.
- 1:19:37Speaker 5: 2019.
- 1:19:37Speaker 4: So the seniors would be 25 years old now.
- 1:19:42Speaker 18: Right.
- 1:19:42Speaker 2: Very good. Yeah, that's exactly right. It's amazing. 68 games
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: is amazing. I don't even know what the record is now,
- 1:19:50Speaker 2: but who cares? This game, so it was tie, 14
- 1:19:56Speaker 2: to 14. And Garden City had the ball and they
- 1:20:00Speaker 2: were marching. And then there was an interception by Massapequa.
- 1:20:03Speaker 2: And there were only seconds left. And then there was
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: a game-winning 29-yard touchdown from Dylan Malaglio, who is the quarterback.
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: Excuse me, Luke Gargilo, who is the quarterback to Dylan
- 1:20:19Speaker 2: Malaglio for 29 yards and a touchdown. And it was
- 1:20:23Speaker 2: an incredible touchdown. It wasn't in the end zone. It
- 1:20:26Speaker 2: was about at 15 yards, and he broke a tackle
- 1:20:29Speaker 2: and got in. So there you go. They have now
- 1:20:32Speaker 2: won Massapequa. Now we have to watch them. They have
- 1:20:34Speaker 2: won 26 games in a row.
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: Well, see, you mentioned the two guys had Italian last names.
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: That's Mazza Pizza out there. Jews and Italians live together.
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: But the other striking point of this is I was
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: looking at Long Island Newsday, front page the other day, 30%
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: of high schools... do not have a football team any longer.
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: They can't get players out on Long Island. Stronghouse, both
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: in Nassau and Suffolk. I remember I played Brooklyn Prep.
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: I played freshman. I played JV. We'd go out there
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: to play St. Agnes, Rockville Center, Chaminade, Oyster Bay. I
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: remember St.
- 1:21:12Speaker 2: Dominic's.
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: They crushed us because they would train all year long. Imagine.
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: The 30% of the teams are not playing now because
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: they can't get enough players. And some of the parents,
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: which I can't figure out, are saying, we don't want
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: you playing, you know, tackle football, smash mouth football.
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: We want you playing, which is big out there, lacrosse.
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: Now with lacrosse, they take those sticks, they hit each
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: other in the head, even though they have helmets and
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: the kneecaps. I'm saying to myself, wait a second, that's
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: like jumping from the frying pan into the fire.
- 1:21:45Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's not exactly. Football's still much worse, still
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: much worse. And they do, they have a real problem.
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: I mean, the fact that there are so many concussions
- 1:21:55Speaker 2: and if you continue to play, if you continue to
- 1:21:57Speaker 2: play since high school, it's like 80% have some problems.
- 1:22:00Speaker 2: So I can understand parents who did that. My son
- 1:22:05Speaker 2: played football, but he quit because he had a concussion
- 1:22:07Speaker 2: and he also had a serious back injury. Too violent
- 1:22:12Speaker 2: of a game, and that's why so.
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: Many are playing soccer. Are you telling me it's going
- 1:22:15Speaker 1: to be replaced by Tom Brady's flag football? Say it
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: ain't so, Larry.
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: Hey, listen. I have a granddaughter who is one of
- 1:22:22Speaker 2: the best in the country in flag football, so I'm
- 1:22:24Speaker 2: hoping for it. I want it to happen. Let's go
- 1:22:29Speaker 2: to some talkbacks. Natalie Migliore is back, and people noticed.
- 1:22:33Speaker 23: I'm wondering how long it took Natalie Migliore to get
- 1:22:37Speaker 23: rid of her accent.
- 1:22:39Speaker 6: One minute.
- 1:22:40Speaker 23: Two weeks around Curtis and she sounds more New York.
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: Than I think. Oh, that's true. Although you got to
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: watch Eating the Zeppelis with me at the San Gennaro Festival.
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: You think she's got a hardcore accent. Man, it was
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: really hardcore there at San Gennaro.
- 1:22:58Speaker 2: It comes out more during the Beat on the Street.
- 1:23:00Speaker 2: If you hear her reports, no accent. She comes out
- 1:23:03Speaker 2: here and talks. By the way, we got to get
- 1:23:06Speaker 2: cameras in this studio just for her. That is a ballet.
- 1:23:11Speaker 2: She's fun to watch. Oh, my God. She puts everything
- 1:23:15Speaker 2: into it. My first cup of coffee? You're not going
- 1:23:21Speaker 2: to like it.
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: It really tastes like coffee.
- 1:23:23Speaker 13: That big orange and brown can of Sanka.
- 1:23:27Speaker 23: My mother used to.
- 1:23:27Speaker 13: Make it all the time. Wow.
- 1:23:31Speaker 2: The only nice thing about that is it's only up
- 1:23:33Speaker 2: from there. Like everything you've had since then has been amazing.
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: And the instant, the worst. Sink instant, it's like liquid tar.
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: But right now at 8.30, let's get the news with Daria.
- 1:23:45Speaker 3: Sunny and warmer today. Clouds rolling in this afternoon. High
- 1:23:48Speaker 3: 75 degrees. He may have something to do with it.
- 1:23:52Speaker 3: That's what some investigators are saying about the victim in
- 1:23:55Speaker 3: a deadly accident on an A train this week. And
- 1:23:58Speaker 3: here's what they're leaning toward.
- 1:24:00Speaker 7: Video from Brooklyn's Utica Avenue subway station Monday shows Yaw
- 1:24:04Speaker 7: Bohine being dragged into a wall, then onto the tracks
- 1:24:08Speaker 7: after what looked like his blue plastic shopping bag got
- 1:24:11Speaker 7: caught in the subway's door. He was not hit by
- 1:24:14Speaker 7: the train. Sources tell NBC News New York the 57-year-old
- 1:24:18Speaker 7: may have refused to let go of the bag even
- 1:24:21Speaker 7: after he was being dragged. They're also checking to see
- 1:24:24Speaker 7: if the bag got caught on his wrist and he
- 1:24:26Speaker 7: could not break free. or if his foot got caught
- 1:24:29Speaker 7: between the train and the platform trapping him. Andrew Whitman,

- 1:24:34Speaker 3: The Pentagon is making some big cuts to its senior
- 1:24:37Speaker 3: officer ranks. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is expected to announce
- 1:24:41Speaker 3: today a 20% reduction in the number of positions that
- 1:24:44Speaker 3: are reserved for admirals and generals. It's expected to come
- 1:24:48Speaker 3: during the State of the Force address today that he'll
- 1:24:50Speaker 3: give at Quantico. The damage from the weekend nor'easter may
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: have been worse in some places than initially thought, especially...
- 1:24:58Speaker 3: on the Jersey Shore and on Long Island, where a
- 1:25:00Speaker 3: concert at Jones Beach tonight has been canceled.
- 1:25:03Speaker 18: I've got a spoiler alert for you.
- 1:25:11Speaker 3: A beloved character is going to be killed off in
- 1:25:13Speaker 3: the episode that airs tonight, or today, I guess, that
- 1:25:17Speaker 3: comes out right after midnight, so you could say today.
- 1:25:19Speaker 3: Season 4 of the popular sports comedy premiered last month,
- 1:25:22Speaker 3: with all of its famous cast members returning, including Jason
- 1:25:26Speaker 3: Sudeikis as the American coach of the British soccer team.
- 1:25:29Speaker 3: All we are being told at this point is that
- 1:25:33Speaker 3: the character dies unexpectedly. Love to wait and see. Yankees
- 1:25:37Speaker 3: win game one of their AL wildcard series against Boston.
- 1:25:40Speaker 3: Game two is tonight. The Liberty upsets top-ranked Minnesota to
- 1:25:44Speaker 3: move ahead in the WNBA playoffs, and the Rangers open

- 1:25:49Speaker 3: in Toronto tonight. Next news, 9 o'clock, bulletins at once.
- 1:25:52Speaker 3: I'm Daria Albinger on 710WOR.
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Daria, and congratulations to Melissa Bongiorni
- 1:25:59Speaker 2: from Bridgeport, Connecticut, who just won a pair of tickets
- 1:26:02Speaker 2: to see Stevie Wonder's sold-out Songs in the Key of
- 1:26:06Speaker 2: Life 50th Anniversary Concert. What a show it's going to
- 1:26:10Speaker 2: be at Madison Square Garden, November 19th. You've got another
- 1:26:15Speaker 2: chance to win tomorrow at 825. Well, the special prosecutor
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: who looks like the Grim Reaper, Jack Smith, was in
- 1:26:24Speaker 2: front of Congress yesterday. Remember, he was trying to put
- 1:26:27Speaker 2: Donald Trump in jail and failed. Well, now they're trying
- 1:26:30Speaker 2: to put him in jail. We'll hear about the hearing next. Also,
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: I want to talk about LifeVac. You know, we had
- 1:26:36Speaker 2: Arthur Leon here who invented LifeVac and now has a
- 1:26:39Speaker 2: company and is trying to get LifeVac in schools, in
- 1:26:44Speaker 2: restaurants all across the country. While he was here, he
- 1:26:47Speaker 2: looked at his phone and another life was saved. They're
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: coming up on 4,000 children's lives saved. Choking is one
- 1:26:58Speaker 2: of those moments that can happen when you don't expect it.
- 1:27:01Speaker 2: And it can happen to anybody, a child, a parent,
- 1:27:04Speaker 2: a grandparent, when it does seconds matter. That's why I
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: want to tell you about LifeVac. LifeVac is the first
- 1:27:10Speaker 2: and only FDA-authorized suction anti-choking device to be used for
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: second-line treatment when recommended choking protocols have been followed without success.
- 1:27:20Speaker 2: Because The Heimlich doesn't always work, especially with children. And
- 1:27:24Speaker 2: here's what's remarkable. LifeVac has helped, I said 4,000 children,
- 1:27:28Speaker 2: 6,000 lives worldwide. That's not just a number. That's real people,
- 1:27:34Speaker 2: real second chances. Preparedness matters. Having the right tool nearby
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: can make all the difference in the world. So learn
- 1:27:44Speaker 2: more about LifeVac today at LifeVac.net. That's LifeVac.net. Visit LifeVac.net
- 1:27:50Speaker 2: and see how you can be ready when it counts.
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: You'll remember special prosecutor Jack Smith, the hitman for the
- 1:27:59Speaker 2: Biden administration and the Democrats who tried to put Donald
- 1:28:03Speaker 2: Trump in jail to prevent him from running in 2026.
- 1:28:06Speaker 5: It was.
- 1:28:10Speaker 2: It was an aberration. Now, he will say from he'll
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: say he did nothing wrong every single time he's interviewed.
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: He did nothing wrong. And yet he illegally got some
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: of the text messages of senators who had nothing to
- 1:28:25Speaker 2: do with the investigation. He illegally had people followed. He
- 1:28:31Speaker 2: illegally got all the donors' checks from people who were
- 1:28:35Speaker 2: giving to the Republican Party. What did that have anything
- 1:28:39Speaker 2: to do? with his investigation? It was all completely political
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: and he belongs in jail. And so they're coming now
- 1:28:48Speaker 2: towards charges against him. First thing is the hearing in
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: front of the Senate to try to get him to
- 1:28:55Speaker 2: make a couple of mistakes. And the, I'll tell you what,
- 1:28:58Speaker 2: the Republican senators, they had at him.
- 1:29:02Speaker 26: When you went to judge Boasberg, you didn't even tell
- 1:29:06Speaker 26: him you were seeking the phone records of members of Congress,
- 1:29:10Speaker 26: did you? Cause you knew he wouldn't agree. He would,
- 1:29:14Speaker 26: he would say, Hey, counselor, anybody who knows a law
- 1:29:17Speaker 26: book from a J crew catalog knows that this violates
- 1:29:21Speaker 26: the constitution. But you didn't tell him, did you?
- 1:29:24Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: Illegal action after illegal action after illegal action. And now
- 1:29:29Speaker 2: he is there as a prelude to him being charged,
- 1:29:33Speaker 2: I hope.
- 1:29:33Speaker 27: You can sigh all you like. It's a very simple question.
- 1:29:36Speaker 27: You know damn well you did. You've been questioned about
- 1:29:39Speaker 27: the checks that you guys got. You know the answer.
- 1:29:43Speaker 27: So why don't you answer the question? Did your team
- 1:29:47Speaker 27: obtain donor and fundraising information?
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: It's a yes. You can say yes.
- 1:29:53Speaker 28: I do not recall the attachments to specific superiors.
- 1:29:56Speaker 2: He's such a slime. He is such a slime. They
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: had the checks. They were showing him what he did,
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: and he was still denying it. Now, these are some
- 1:30:07Speaker 2: of the best moments. The Republicans had some great moments.
- 1:30:11Speaker 2: Senator Schmidt from Missouri. Not the best senator from Missouri.
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: That's Hawley. Yeah, no, you're right. Hawley was really good.
- 1:30:23Speaker 1: Oh, man, he was intense.
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: He's a great inquisitioner.
- 1:30:26Speaker 1: But this guy was setting him up for a perjury trap,
- 1:30:29Speaker 1: because that's why Fauci the last time, remember, with Rand Paul,
- 1:30:34Speaker 1: took the Fifth Amendment, because they don't want to face
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: a perjury rap. So he figured, we got him. We
- 1:30:40Speaker 1: got the text messages from Jack Smith and his colleagues
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: about going to a basketball game.
- 1:30:45Speaker 2: Well, let's hear him. He can set it up.
- 1:30:47Speaker 29: Did you go to an NBA game between the Golden
- 1:30:49Speaker 29: State Warriors and the Atlanta Hawks on February 3, 2024?
- 1:30:54Speaker 28: What city would that be in?
- 1:30:55Speaker 13: Atlanta.
- 1:30:56Speaker 6: No.
- 1:30:57Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:31:00Speaker 29: So your testimony today is that you did not go
- 1:31:03Speaker 29: to a Hawks game on February 3, 2024.
- 1:31:04Speaker 2: Is that correct?
- 1:31:07Speaker 28: I have no recollection of that.
- 1:31:09Speaker 5: Okay.
- 1:31:09Speaker 29: Is it your testimony that you were not in Atlanta
- 1:31:11Speaker 29: on February 3, 2024?
- 1:31:12Speaker 5: No.
- 1:31:15Speaker 2: Let me just give you a little context.
- 1:31:16Speaker 29: The day before Fannie Willis came clean with her affair
- 1:31:19Speaker 29: with the prosecutor, you know the Atlanta prosecutor that was
- 1:31:22Speaker 29: also trying to get Trump? The next day, were you
- 1:31:24Speaker 29: in Atlanta?
- 1:31:25Speaker 2: Yeah, he thought he had him. He thought he had
- 1:31:28Speaker 2: him on perjury.
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: Right, but you see, aiding and abetting him, his wingman,
- 1:31:33Speaker 1: I'm surprised, was Senator Kennedy of Louisiana. He's holding up
- 1:31:36Speaker 1: the board with all the text messages going between Jack
- 1:31:40Speaker 1: Smith and his colleagues. You're going to the game. You're
- 1:31:42Speaker 1: going to the game tonight. And then all of a sudden,
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: obviously somebody didn't do proper research.
- 1:31:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:31:51Speaker 28: If this is the correct basketball game, I recall going
- 1:31:57Speaker 28: to a University of Maryland basketball game where Caitlin Clark
- 1:32:01Speaker 28: was playing.
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: Different state.
- 1:32:03Speaker 28: Right around that time. And the Marshal Service was there
- 1:32:07Speaker 28: with me. You could check if that was the exact date.
- 1:32:09Speaker 28: It was Maryland playing Iowa, I think, February 8th. of 2024,
- 1:32:15Speaker 28: but again, you can check that out if that's what
- 1:32:18Speaker 28: we're talking about.
- 1:32:18Speaker 2: They're looking now to check it.
- 1:32:23Speaker 23: Could it then be that University of Iowa is the Hawkeyes?
- 1:32:26Speaker 1: Before we show this kind of thing.
- 1:32:32Speaker 2: Because it's the Atlanta Hawks is the professional team and
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: Iowa's team are the Hawkeyes, so somebody who's trying to
- 1:32:40Speaker 2: throw him a save line and say, hey, maybe you
- 1:32:44Speaker 2: just got these two things mixed up.
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: Yeah, but Caitlin Clark, remember, was Miss, I mean, the
- 1:32:50Speaker 1: number one NCAA female basketball player at that time. Of course,
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: he's going to be there if he could get tickets.
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: But that was so embarrassing that all of a sudden,
- 1:33:00Speaker 1: Senator Schmidt packed up his information, got up, and he said,
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: I've had enough of this committee, and they continued on.
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: It was a four-hour meeting. grueling cross-examination, some really good
- 1:33:14Speaker 1: stuff came to the surface. I hope they do nail
- 1:33:18Speaker 1: this guy because in addition to Republicans and donors and
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: elected officials, congressmen and women and senators, he also got
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: information from some Democrats and some media outlets in which
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: they were going back and forth with some of the
- 1:33:33Speaker 1: elected officials. He was basically trolling. You know, when you
- 1:33:37Speaker 1: go out to fish and you just throw the net out.
- 1:33:40Speaker 1: And then remember, he was exchanging with his colleagues and
- 1:33:42Speaker 1: laughing about it.
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: He wasn't just trolling. I mean, he was getting information
- 1:33:46Speaker 2: that the Democratic National Committee and the Biden administration wanted,
- 1:33:51Speaker 2: whether it had anything to do with the investigation or not.
- 1:33:55Speaker 2: So it wasn't like it was just getting everything, hoping
- 1:33:58Speaker 2: to find something. They wanted specific things, especially that donor's information.
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: And if I was every one of those donors, I
- 1:34:06Speaker 2: would be suing them right now.
- 1:34:07Speaker 1: You know what his excuse was? He said, We wanted
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: to make sure that Donald Trump, meaning Donald Trump the person,
- 1:34:15Speaker 1: after he was out of office, was not taking that
- 1:34:18Speaker 1: money for his personal use. Come on!
- 1:34:21Speaker 2: Well, then why did you go after all the text
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: messages of all the senators? It's bizarre. It was such
- 1:34:27Speaker 2: a wide net, and it was so unconstitutional, and it's
- 1:34:31Speaker 2: so illegal. Forget the politics of it for a second.
- 1:34:34Speaker 2: This should never happen. If you allow a president or
- 1:34:38Speaker 2: a party... to sick a special prosecutor who they brought, remember,
- 1:34:43Speaker 2: from the Hague, from the World Court in the Hague,
- 1:34:45Speaker 2: to come here and specifically go after him as a hitman,
- 1:34:50Speaker 2: then we're going to be lost as a country. We're
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: a communist country at that point. But I'll tell you what,
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: you were talking about that back and forth between Smith
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: and Schmidt. If you want to see a great meme...
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: Go online and look at Senator Katie Britt from Alabama,
- 1:35:09Speaker 2: who is like horrified when this is happening because she's
- 1:35:13Speaker 2: feeling so bad.
- 1:35:14Speaker 1: I want to bet that many of the staff members
- 1:35:18Speaker 1: of Senator Schmidt of Missouri are getting a tongue lashing today.
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: You made me look like a jerk! Anyway, up next,
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: I found out yesterday at the 20th anniversary of City
- 1:35:31Speaker 1: and State, great publication, I was there to celebrate their existence.
- 1:35:35Speaker 1: that believe it or not, today on the floor of
- 1:35:37Speaker 1: the city council, Larry, we were talking about this yesterday,
- 1:35:41Speaker 1: the tragic death of the 50-year-old woman on 34th Street
- 1:35:44Speaker 1: hit by the pickup truck as she was doing deliveries.
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: There are going to be 23 separate bills introduced on
- 1:35:52Speaker 1: the floor of the New York City Council today about
- 1:35:55Speaker 1: reining in e-bikes, scooters, and mopeds. Wait till you hear
- 1:36:01Speaker 1: what that encompasses, but more importantly, what it doesn't encompass.
- 1:36:07Speaker 1: And starting Monday, this Monday, WOR will give you nine
- 1:36:11Speaker 1: chances every weekday to score a grand in your hand.
- 1:36:15Speaker 1: Listen for the keyword every hour from 9 a.m. till
- 1:36:18Speaker 1: 5 p.m. Enter it on our website and you could
- 1:36:22Speaker 1: win a thousand bucks starting this Monday. The last night, Larry,
- 1:36:26Speaker 1: you know, I'm a tried and true Yankee fan. I
- 1:36:28Speaker 1: wanted to watch that amazing first game victory, Yankees over
- 1:36:32Speaker 1: the Red Sox. Yankees win, Yankees win, Yankees win. On
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: to game two tonight at Yankee Stadium. But I had
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: an invitation from Jeff Colton, who is the executive director
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: of City and State. It's a publication. They were celebrating
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: their 20th anniversary. And if you want to know anything
- 1:36:51Speaker 1: going on locally in the city of New York, go
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: to Or in the state of New York, that's the
- 1:36:55Speaker 1: go-to publication. And Jeff Colton is like one of the best.
- 1:36:59Speaker 1: In fact, did a feature. We may want to run
- 1:37:02Speaker 1: a link, Natalie, to this feature. I do an analysis
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: of Eric Adams' Swagger Man with No Plan, Partying to
- 1:37:08Speaker 1: the Break of Dawn. But not all negative. Some positive, too.
- 1:37:12Speaker 1: We may want to do a link on that because
- 1:37:14Speaker 1: starting Friday, his cronies start going on trial for corruption.
- 1:37:18Speaker 1: Frank Caron for stealing money from the migrant shelter funds
- 1:37:22Speaker 1: and his brother. But all of a sudden, people are
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: coming up to me. Lobbyists, city council people. Curtis, you
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: know what's going on tomorrow in city council? They're putting
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: out onto the floor. First time in history this has
- 1:37:37Speaker 1: ever happened. 23 separate bills at the same time. Now, Larry,
- 1:37:42Speaker 1: whoever is the Speaker, they control that, whether it's in
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: a state legislature, in the House of Representatives, that Speaker Johnson,
- 1:37:49Speaker 1: he controls that, and Julie Menon controls it as the
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: Speaker of the City Council. When you allow 23 separate
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: bills to be introduced simultaneously about reining in the excesses
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: of e-bikes, scooters, and mopeds, It means that you don't
- 1:38:06Speaker 1: have one solid bill that you can coalesce around and
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: actually resolve the problem, which is you're not forcing them
- 1:38:15Speaker 1: to have license plates. You're not forcing them to have
- 1:38:18Speaker 1: driver's licenses. You're not forcing them to drive 15 miles
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: and less on the roadway. Some of them are going
- 1:38:25Speaker 1: 40 miles or more. And I've made that argument. You
- 1:38:28Speaker 1: see them wearing military helmets because they know they're going
- 1:38:33Speaker 1: to crash.
- 1:38:33Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:38:34Speaker 2: Let me ask you a question about all of those
- 1:38:36Speaker 2: bills because I don't know how city council works. You
- 1:38:39Speaker 2: probably know that better than I do. I do know
- 1:38:41Speaker 2: how state legislators work and I do know how assemblies
- 1:38:46Speaker 2: work and how Congress and the Senate works. Normally, whoever's
- 1:38:50Speaker 2: in charge, and in this case, it's Julie Menon, whoever's
- 1:38:53Speaker 2: in charge looks at all these bills and says, OK,
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: we're going to consolidate. We're going to come up with
- 1:38:59Speaker 2: one strong bill to get all of you so they
- 1:39:01Speaker 2: can all get behind one bill. That apparently didn't happen
- 1:39:07Speaker 2: in this case. No, this is the Wild West. Because
- 1:39:10Speaker 2: I don't believe.
- 1:39:10Speaker 1: Remember, Julie Manning came out very strongly at first and said,
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: we're going to finally regulate the Wild Wild West. And
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: then the other lobby said, but a lot of them
- 1:39:21Speaker 1: are illegal aliens. We don't want them on any kind
- 1:39:24Speaker 1: of registration because ICE is going to come in and
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: take that. No, they're not. How ridiculous that is. So
- 1:39:31Speaker 1: she backed off. So now if chaos takes place on
- 1:39:34Speaker 1: the floor of the city council, she'll be like punches pilot. See,
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: I tried.
- 1:39:39Speaker 2: I tried. I don't give a damn about chaos on
- 1:39:42Speaker 2: this in city council. Tell you the truth. I care
- 1:39:46Speaker 2: about the chaos in the streets. And another guy died.
- 1:39:48Speaker 2: Another pedestrian died. Richard O'Brien in Central Park. who was
- 1:39:52Speaker 2: hit by a bike, and that makes it 21. Yep.
- 1:39:57Speaker 2: 21 for the city, dead in this year. So that's
- 1:40:00Speaker 2: who I worry about, and the fact that they're not
- 1:40:02Speaker 2: dealing with this problem, especially if it's because of illegals,
- 1:40:06Speaker 2: is abhorrent, and they should be ashamed of themselves.
- 1:40:08Speaker 1: I promise you tomorrow I will bifurcate them for you.
- 1:40:12Speaker 1: It may take three or four hours for us to
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: do that. But anyway, the talk back in the morning,
- 1:40:18Speaker 1: and winner of the Curtis Lee with Larry Menti in
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: the morning T-shirt talks about my positive influence on our
- 1:40:24Speaker 1: street reporter, Natalie Megliore.
- 1:40:27Speaker 23: I'm wondering how long it took Natalie Megliore to get
- 1:40:30Speaker 23: rid of her accent. One, two weeks around Curtis, and
- 1:40:35Speaker 23: she sounds more New York than ever. Have a great day.
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: I have that effect on people. And remember, the Talkback
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: of the Week will win us Ukraine Radio. And make
