  Speaker 1: Now, Curtis Lewa and Larry Minty in the morning.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: 710WOR.
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: Can we just sit and marvel of the beauty of
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: this weekend that's before us? It's going to be gorgeous.
• 0:14
  Speaker 4: Wait a second. How was the travel today for you
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: guys coming in?
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Light. Very light. Light.
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: How about nobody?
• 0:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it was empty.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: And what is it going to be like on your
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: exodus out?
• 0:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all depends on timing.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 0:30
  Speaker 6: That's a tricky one. I mean, honestly, coming in this morning,
• 0:33
  Speaker 6: I thought to myself, is it Saturday?
• 0:35
  Speaker 7: Did I?
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, it was worse than Saturday.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: At least people are going to the theater.
• 0:39
  Speaker 8: I know.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: Nobody was coming in.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: I was like, what's happening?
• 0:42
  Speaker 6: But, you know, I've always felt like if you could
• 0:45
  Speaker 6: get out by 11, you know, if you're going to
• 0:48
  Speaker 6: one of the shores, either by the Long Island or
• 0:50
  Speaker 6: New Jersey.
• 0:50
  Speaker 5: And That's your safest bet. Anytime after 11, it gets tricky.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: Because if people are renting down there, they have to
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: get in somewhere between noon and 3. So they have
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: to leave anywhere. So you're right. Between 11 and 2 o'clock,
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: that's when it's massive. Especially when you're going down the
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Turnpike for the exit for the Garden State Parkway. That
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: gets packed up for miles.
• 1:13
  Speaker 9: Wow.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: So this is good advice for me. Because I got
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: to speak at the University of Pennsylvania today at four.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: So if I'm going down the turnpike, what's the best
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: time for me to get there? Because once I'm past
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: the exit, Garden State Parkway towards Atlantic City, it should
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: go easy till exit four. Then, naturally, I want to
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: go to Camden first. I want to get to the
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: grunge and then go over to Ben Franklin Bridge and
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: then to the University of Penn. Oh, yeah, my old battlegrounds.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: I would skip the Ben Franklin Bridge altogether. You know,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: you can do that just by getting off and taking
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: 95 down. So you can skip the Ben Franklin Bridge
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: because that might end up being a problem altogether. You know,
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: going your way, though, it's probably going to be light
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: going your way, but you're going to see a lot
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: of traffic, a lot of traffic.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Coming your way.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: All right, so that's good advice because I would have assumed,
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: you know, easy going, easy going. Everybody's already broken out. But, see,
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: that's why I have to go to the pros. You
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: guys live that ride each and every day, off-peak, peak, holiday,
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. So I'm going to be telling the
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: missus and my little crew that's coming with me, uh-uh.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: What time do we got to be past the Garden
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: State Parkway, you say, the turnoff for Atlantic City?
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: By 11 or noon?
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: If you're all the way down there, I'd say.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: By noon you're safe.
• 2:36
  Speaker 10: Okay, good.
• 2:37
  Speaker 11: Good.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Thank you for that advice. Thank you.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: I don't want you to be, you know, late for.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: The Ivy League.
• 2:43
  Speaker 12: No, no.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Four o'clock.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: That's a great campus. I went to tour that campus once. Oh,
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: my goodness.
• 2:49
  Speaker 10: Penny?
• 2:50
  Speaker 13: Yes.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: That's gorgeous.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: It's really nice on campus.
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: You can't live a block off the campuses because there's
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: a lot of crime in those areas.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: But interesting is that Again, remember when I went to Stanford,
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: it was on the Memorial Day weekend. People said, nobody's
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: going to be in Palo Alto, you know, Memorial Day weekend.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: The place was packed. They insist the place is going
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: to be packed today. They had to look for another
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: venue because they just got back to school.
• 3:14
  Speaker 10: Exactly.
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: I mean, I even asked my son, I'm like, hey,
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: do you want to come down to the show this weekend?
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: He's like, no, everybody's here. Why would I want to
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: go down there?
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Penn has some huge theaters, too, and huge areas.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: I think they have the Annenberg Auditorium seats almost like,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: 1500 or 2000.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Let's hope they got that for me. Yeah. I'll be
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: able to let you know when we're back on Tuesday.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: But interesting. I was talking with Larry in advance and all,
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: you know, Larry loves the AI loves to Google, you know,
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: and I say, Hey, you know, My history with the
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: Labor Day parade, when my dad took me there in 1960,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Nixon versus Kennedy. And that's when Jimmy Hoffa and the
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Teamsters broke for Nixon and the Republicans against the Democrats.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: And you did a Google for Labor Day parade.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: And what did you come up with?
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: I forget.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: The West Indian Day, Caribbean Day parade. That's right.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: Which I'll be at every year. But that's Monday. That's
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: in Crown Heights. There'll be about a million people there.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: The traditional Labor Day parade is no more. It'll take
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: place a few weeks later.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: It'll be on a Saturday.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: Our own Jim Kerr, you know, leads our SAG-AFTRA unit
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: because he's a lifelong member. Remember, it was SAG-AFTRA, the nanny.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: who walked remember they took everybody out of the tv
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: studios the movie studios the script writers all over.
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: Ai you're talking about fran drescher.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: Yes i think most people know her and i i
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: had put a word out to her i didn't speak
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: directly to her but one of her assistants said what
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: about the radio division we're ready to walk out and
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: they said no need for that well guess what Thank
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: God I ended up here at iHeart where they have
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: said AI stands for actual intelligence. We're not going to
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: use artificial intelligence. But that was one of the issues
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: for that SAG-AFTRA strike. Remember, that went on for many,
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: many weeks. There hadn't been a strike since I think
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: it was 1960 when Ronald Reagan and a Democrat, the
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: president of SAG-AFTRA, was out on the picket line with
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: Marilyn Monroe before she hooked up with the Kennedys because
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: they were striking the movie studios.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I told this story in the air before you
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: talked about SAG-AFTRA and going up against AI. I know
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: a guy that owns radio stations in New Jersey. His
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: name is Bob McGowan. And I talk to him every
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: once in a while. He has AI doing his overnight
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: shifts on rock stations, on top 40 stations. And he
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: says he loves it. It's unbelievable. You can't tell the difference.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: And he says, and no longer do you have to
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: deal with stubborn DJs. He said, if I want the
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: time every 15 minutes, damn it, I'll get the time
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: every 15 minutes. I just program it.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: Have you heard it? Can you tell the difference?
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: No, I have heard it, and I can't tell the difference.
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: Because I still think there are some things that people
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: are using AFR, and it's not great. There was actually
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: an interesting article about restaurants. using it for advertisements and menus.
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: And so the food is not real. It's not a
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: picture of the meal. And it just looks funky. There's
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: something off about it.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: There's good AI and there's bad AI. The really good AI,
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: you've seen it online. Can you actually tell the difference
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: in the really good AI? How about some of the
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: ads you've seen in politics? I mean, the really good
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: stuff looks like it's actually the politicians. The really bad
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: stuff like Blakeman did, it was Kathy Hochul.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: But let me do a pivot and shift on you
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: to maybe what was one of the most preferred movies
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: in your lifetime, Larry. I'm just assuming based on your
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: Irish roots, The Irishman, you know, the Scorsese movie that
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: went on, what was that, three and a half, four hours? Oh, my, oh, no, my,
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: but it was all about Jimmy Hoffa. They had Pacino
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: playing Hoffa. God, come on. That was not good. They
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: had De Niro playing the Irishman, right? They had Pesci
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: playing the mob guy, the Italian mob guy from Buffalo.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember who else, man.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: There were a few others. Oh, your favorite guy, Angelo Bruno.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: Angelo Bruno was Harvey Keitel. But the guy that they–
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: I forget who they played. It was the guy who
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: actually whacked Hoffa, Anthony– Tony Provenzano was the head of
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: the Teamsters Union in Union City.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: That's where all the trucks were.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: And he had gotten into a beef with Hoffa when
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: Hoffa was sent away to Leavenworth for jury tampering, conspiracy, racketeering, everything.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: I think it was 67. And, man, he carried it
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: out after Hoffa was given a commutation by Nixon. Remember,
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: he supported Nixon with the Teamsters in 60 against Kennedy.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: So Nixon commutes his sentence in 71 with the provision.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: that you will never run for the presidency of the
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Teamsters again. And what did Jimmy Hoffa say? Oof, I'm
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: running again. And that's when the mob guys decided we
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: got to take him out. And I know how it
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: was done. And I hope we get some talkbacks on
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: this because they've done movies, documentaries. He goes to make
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: his bones with Anthony Tony Pro Provenzano at a diner
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: in Detroit. And instead, he comes out in a 55-gallon
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: drum and then gets up getting buried right underneath the
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Pulaski Bridge. I'm sure you've gone under the Pulaski Skyway
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: many times over it, right?
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, of course.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: And I think you too, Natalie.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Over the Pulaski Skyway, you see that in the opening
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: credits of The Sopranos.
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's really pretty.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: It's the ugliest bridge ever.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: But underneath on the.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: Jersey City side is the old PJP landfill. It's still
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: this smoke that comes out of it. It used to
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: be owned by the Genovese crime family. That's where they
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: put the 55-gallon drum, that toxic waste drum with Jimmy Hoffa,
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: not where they claim, you know, at MetLife Stadium there
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: under the goalposts.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no. It's under the Pulaski Skyway.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: And how do you know this?
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Oh, man, I've heard it from a bunch of wise
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: guys from the Genovese crime family.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: But everybody likes to do their own adaptation.
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: Scorsese spent, what, three and a half hours trying to
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: spin it differently, that it was one of your peeps
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: that whacked him?
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You see, Scorsese didn't want to
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: put this on an Italian guy.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Which one of my peeps? Is it the Germans or
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: the Irish?
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: No, the Irish.
• 9:34
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: You really believe that De Niro was the Irishman? Come on.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: I know he played Jimmy Burke in Goodfellas, the Irishman,
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: but I'm telling you, I really hated that movie, The Irishman.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: You know, wrapping up everything we talked about, you know
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: what movie could have used AI? The Irishman.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Remember the anti-aging technology they used? It was awful.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, Pacino.
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: You know who Pacino looked like in that movie? He
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: looked like Stevie Van Zandt, you know, in The Sopranos.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: I said, what the hell is this? Why are you
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: still always using the same characters? He just would keep Casino, Goodfellas.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: We could just go on and on. Three and a
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: half hours of torture to have to be told that
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: an Irishman was the guy who killed Jimmy Hoffa.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: That is a lie.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: It was Anthony Tony Provenzano, the Italian guy, did it.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: I've heard theories from everybody. So you're saying yours is
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: absolutely correct.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Although my memory at the age of six, right?
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: Labor Day parade. Larry, you can't imagine it. All the
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: unions are there. And the sidelines on Fifth Avenue packed.
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: I mean, packed with people. So they're supporting the Democrat,
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: although they supported Humphrey in the primary against Kennedy because
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: he was more union friendly. They always thought that Kennedy... Kennedy,
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: as they called it, crime family, was a union busting family.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: And they didn't trust the Kennedy boys, but they went
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: with them. And then here are the teamsters ready to
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: get into a fight with my dad, the National Maritime Union.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: You know, they were supporting Kennedy with their crooked president.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: Forget what the hell his name was. They were always
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: raiding the pension funds, always stealing the men and women's money.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: And it's like, I'm a six-year-old kid. What am I
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: going to do? If my dad gets into a fight
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: with the National Maritime Union, you know, the guys who
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: went out to sea against the Teamsters were all.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Tough guys, too.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell you what. We want to get to
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: your talkbacks. A lot to talk about. You can tell
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: us exactly where Jimmy Hoffa is because apparently everybody has
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: a theory. Curtis says he's right.
• 11:38
  Speaker 14: Is he?
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: Leave us a talkback. Go to the iHeartRadio app. You
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: could win a Curtis Lewa and Larry Menti in the
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: morning T-shirt, which will be awarded every day to our
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: favorite talkback of the morning. And while you're on the
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: free iHeartRadio app, Be sure to set a preset for 710WOR. Also,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: let's talk about Labor Day, the lack of parades, what
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: you might be doing this weekend. And don't forget, the
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: best talk back of the week takes home a C-Crane radio.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: For the listener who demands better, C-Crane radios with legendary reception.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: All right, when we come back, the Dancing with the
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: Stars celebrity cast has been announced. And somebody is not
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: on it. Somebody is not happy. We'll hear from that
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: somebody coming up next, plus a chance to see Air
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Supply at 825.
• 12:30
  Speaker 15: The city that never sleeps isn't waking up the same anymore.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Curtis Lewa and Larry Minty in the morning, 710WOR.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Hey, listen to this, Curtis. They came out with the celebrities.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: They're going to be in Dancing with the Stars. You
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: look like a big Dancing with the Stars fan.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Not a fan, but....
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: Can I give you the list first?
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Well, let me tell you first before you give me
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: the list. When I came over here to be matched
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: with you, the shit act made by Tom Cuddy, our
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: program director, Natalie, our producer, who's been here forever.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Said, oh, we're going to get you on Dancing with
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: the Stars. You're such a good dancer.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: I was going to give you the list so you
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: could then be disappointed when you hear the people, but
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: I still think it's going to work. I still think
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: that you will be disappointed when you hear the people
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: that apparently are bigger stars than you are.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: This is 35 years, right? They've been doing this, Dancing
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: with the Stars, 25 years?
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: It's a long time.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's 35 years.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: I think it's 35 years.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: Maybe seasons, if they do two seasons a year.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: I'll give you the names first, and you tell me
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: if you know any of them. Amber Glenn.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, come on.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: She's an Olympic figure skater. Apparently not one of the
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: best ones, but an Olympic figure skater.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: She'll be good then.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: How about Sierra Miller?
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: Not.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: She's the reality star from The Summer House. The what?
• 13:52
  Speaker 10: Come on.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: Connor Leavitt?
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: Mm-mm.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Star from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives?
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: So I gotta like reality TV, okay.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: Connor Wood?
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: He sounds familiar.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: Now he... is so unknown, they don't even have a
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: real credit for them. They just have internet personality.
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I probably knew one of the producers, a family
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: member of one of the producers.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: This, I'm not going to bore everybody with all of them,
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: but this is, they were just the first four.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: This is the worst.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: cast i have ever seen and you couldn't make.
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: It no because i depended on natalie who said she
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: would lobby uh also sorts on the side you know
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: gandhi and diamond with z100 Elvis Duran, I do drops
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: with them every two weeks for an FM audience. Oh,
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: they swore they were going to get me on Dancing
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: with the Stars.
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: They probably have more pull with Dancing with the Stars
• 14:50
  Speaker 6: than I would.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, no, no, don't. You sold me out.
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: I'll tell you, that was like week two, basically, of
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: you being here. I didn't really know you yet. I
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: didn't know if you were serious. I was like, I'm
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: not going to go through with this because.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: Now you know.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Now I know.
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: I mean, now I have a whole year.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: You failed me. You failed me.
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: Well, I did.
• 15:09
  Speaker 14: I did.
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: I did fail you, but.
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: All you had to do was send in the video
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: from Gay Pride, me on the I Heart Float.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I stole the show, dancing the whole parade.
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: He's never going to forgive this. Forgive me, Izzy.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: You Gandhi and Diamond Ufa.
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: At least I'm in good company.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Here's the difference between me and Curtis. I would loathe
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: Even being invited to be on Dancing with the Stars,
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: I think to myself, oh my God, if I sunk
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: that low, I wouldn't want to be on Dancing with
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: the Stars.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: Well, it's also a lot of work. It's not a joke.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: I understand, and I suck at dancing, too. That's the
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: other thing.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Well, you'd be gone fast.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: But you would love it.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Absolutely.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: So we're going to give you an opportunity to recover.
• 15:54
  Speaker 16: Okay.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: And you can start working on it today and then
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: join up with Gandhi and Diamond and figure it out
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: between you and them.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Hopefully, you'll get me into next season. You got it.
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: I love how he assigns people to jobs.
• 16:07
  Speaker 11: I know.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: And then you don't do anything. Because then it's better
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: for the bit a little bit later, right?
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: That's true.
• 16:15
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: So don't count on that.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: No, of course not. They're not going to deliver. They
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: sell me wolf tickets.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: They're like all the people who tell me in the streets,
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: I voted for you, I.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Voted for you, I voted for you. If all of
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: you voted for me, I would have been mayor of
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: the city of New York.
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: Curtis, if you were on Dancing with the Stars, you
• 16:34
  Speaker 6: were with a bunch of nobodies.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: You wanted to be with a better cast.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, stop. Stop this. Stop glazing me. Stop glazing me.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: I'm totally glazing you.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: Maybe we can get him in Summer House.
• 16:48
  Speaker 11: Oh, yeah.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Or The Mormon Wives.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Or Knowing You, The Outhouse, right?
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: Oh, Curtis Lee was starring in The Outhouse as he
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: talks about his choice of toilet paper.
• 16:59
  Speaker 8: You know what?
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: That might have been a better pick for you.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Actually, I won.
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: I want people to call in or leave a talkback.
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: What reality show could you see Curtis and Larry on?
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: No, don't put me in this. I'm out of this completely.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: You're a joint.
• 17:16
  Speaker 13: No, no, no.
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: You're together forever.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, no, no, no. Consummated, you remember? All right. Great
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: time for the talkbacks.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Forget about it, Larry.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: You know Curtis knows where all the bones are buried.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: Jimmy Hoffa in the 55-gallon drum there, Jersey City, underneath
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: the Pulaski Skyway.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: I know he loves conspiracies. I'm just some of them.
• 17:40
  Speaker 12: Curtis, I got a comment on the whole Jimmy Hoffa conspiracy.
• 17:45
  Speaker 12: There's one thing I never understood, and maybe you can
• 17:48
  Speaker 12: answer this question. If it was a Detroit hit, why
• 17:53
  Speaker 12: would they bring the body all the way back to Jersey?
• 17:56
  Speaker 10: It doesn't make sense to me.
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: That's the whole Fox News thing. They did an entire
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: special on it. They believe he's buried in Detroit.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: No way. Who the hell would want to be buried
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: in Detroit? I mean, think about it.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: They believed it so much, they got an excavation truck
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: to come in and dig up.
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: It's right there underneath the Pulaski Skyway, the ugliest bridge
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: ever built.
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: And this last talk back is basically for Curtis and
• 18:23
  Speaker 6: his trip to Pennsylvania today.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: Hey, haven't you guys ever heard of technology? Type in
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: the address into Waze.
• 18:30
  Speaker 17: It'll tell you exactly which direction to go and what
• 18:33
  Speaker 17: time to leave in order for you to get to
• 18:34
  Speaker 17: your location on time.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I use Waze every single day, I'm sure. Natalie,
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: do you use Waze.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Every single day?
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: Well, I use Google Maps, and I will tell you,
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: for the past three days, it's been telling me the
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: Lincoln Tunnel is closed.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: It is not closed, Google Maps!
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: That's because you're not using Waze. Waze is so much better.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Waze is people reporting at the scene. Waze is people
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: telling them, no, this is closed.
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: Well, I didn't listen to it, so.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Waze is how you have to go. And Curtis is...
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: Do you have a cell phone?
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Do I have a cell phone?
• 19:06
  Speaker 13: No!
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: Now let's get the news at 630 with Daria Alvinger.
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: Daria.
• 19:13
  Speaker 15: So it's not a reality show, but I think The
• 19:15
  Speaker 15: Odd Couple is the obvious one for the two.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Of them, right?
• 19:19
  Speaker 14: True.
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: Very true.
• 19:20
  Speaker 15: You know, I think that works. Well, the big Labor
• 19:23
  Speaker 15: Day getaway is here, whether you're going to Pennsylvania like
• 19:25
  Speaker 15: Larry is, whether you're going out to the island like
• 19:27
  Speaker 15: I am tomorrow. The AAA is predicting that this is
• 19:30
  Speaker 15: going to be the busiest one in 15 years, so
• 19:32
  Speaker 15: you're going to have plenty of company, whether you're driving
• 19:34
  Speaker 15: or flying. If you're leaving today, go as early as
• 19:37
  Speaker 15: you can. And on your way home, if you return
• 19:40
  Speaker 15: Sunday instead of Monday, it'll also help you beat the crowds.
• 19:43
  Speaker 15: You will be paying more for gas this year than
• 19:46
  Speaker 15: we did last Labor Day weekend, and it was a
• 19:48
  Speaker 15: main focus of the first White House briefing. since July 23rd,
• 19:52
  Speaker 15: and it was held by Vice President Vance.
• 19:54
  Speaker 14: He was asked if the Trump administration should be blamed
• 19:56
  Speaker 14: for rising gas prices that led him to point the
• 19:59
  Speaker 14: finger at Iran for shooting at oil tankers in the
• 20:02
  Speaker 14: Strait of Hormuz.
• 20:03
  Speaker 18: The reason gas prices are so high right now is
• 20:07
  Speaker 18: because the Iranians are shooting at commercial shipping. Even, by
• 20:10
  Speaker 18: the way, when they signed an agreement that said we're
• 20:12
  Speaker 18: going to stop shooting at commercial shipping, they almost immediately
• 20:16
  Speaker 18: went back to shooting at commercial shipping.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: And said that U.S.
• 20:19
  Speaker 14: Gas prices are lower than in the rest of the world.
• 20:22
  Speaker 14: The VP also said our European allies could do more
• 20:24
  Speaker 14: to help deal with Iran. He said the U.S. naval
• 20:27
  Speaker 14: patrols in the Strait have stopped a potential worldwide energy crisis.
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: I'm Tammy Trujillo.
• 20:32
  Speaker 15: In Brooklyn, two men are under arrest accused in a
• 20:35
  Speaker 15: crash and a fight with a horror film finish.
• 20:38
  Speaker 19: It started with a crash at Shepherd and New Lots
• 20:41
  Speaker 19: Avenues in East New York around 11 a.m. The Daily
• 20:44
  Speaker 19: News says a 47-year-old man crashed into the car of
• 20:47
  Speaker 19: a 46-year-old man. The driver then got out and stabbed
• 20:51
  Speaker 19: the other man in the stomach. The paper says that
• 20:54
  Speaker 19: man then chased the driver three blocks, caught him, beat him,
• 20:58
  Speaker 19: then gouged his eye out before collapsing in the street
• 21:01
  Speaker 19: a few steps away. Witnesses described the man's screams. Both
• 21:06
  Speaker 19: were hospitalized. Both are stable. Charges against the two are pending.
• 21:10
  Speaker 19: Andrew Whitman, WOR News.
• 21:12
  Speaker 15: Horizon Organic Dairy is recalling more than 53,000 cases of
• 21:16
  Speaker 15: chocolate milk. The FDA warns that it.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Could be spoiled.
• 21:20
  Speaker 15: No local baseball last night. The Mets will host the
• 21:22
  Speaker 15: Giants at Citi Field tonight, and the Yankees will be
• 21:24
  Speaker 15: in San Diego late tonight. Next news, 7 o'clock bulletins
• 21:27
  Speaker 15: at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710 WOR.
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: Oh, Maria Bartiromo, released by Fox News unexpectedly yesterday. That's
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: three programs a week she does. And the president late
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: last night responded, oh, there are going to be a
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: lot of unhappy people over this. We'll do a deep
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: dive on that up next. You know, this was a
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: scene for you, Larry.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: You go out to the pay telephone.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: You call up Fox News Channel and you say, what
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: happened to my very dear friend Maria Bartiromo?
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: And they say, there's nothing you can do. She's gone.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: She's gone. And you say, well, what?
• 22:11
  Speaker 19: What?
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Nothing you can do.
• 22:13
  Speaker 13: Gone.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: That's how quick this information came down the pipe yesterday.
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: She had just finished her morning show. She did three
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: shows a week for Fox News Channel. I would say
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: for a select audience, they were looking for the heavy hitters,
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: the whales out there, you know, people in finance, people
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: who had equity. It's not like it was going to
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: be the ratings leader of all of Fox News, but
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: it had a very select audience. And out of nowhere,
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: They let her go and she has not responded. But
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: the president of the United States, who must have been
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: just as surprised that all of us put out a
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: truth social last night, was very disturbed and said there's
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: going to be a lot of angry people who watch
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: who want to have answers. And I think I know
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: what it was, but, boy, this is a woman with
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: a tremendous history in broadcasting. And like Natalie, who was
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: an intern for Barry Farber, that's how she broke into
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: the business. She was an intern at WMCA when our
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: own guy, Mark Simone, was over there. And she was
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: Barry Farber's intern, and he recommended to her, you really
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: got talent. You need to branch out into TV and
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: other forms of entertainment. And that's what she did, a
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: Brooklyn girl.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Great story.
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: Went to Fon Fon, all-girls high school, Rex Manor, owned
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: by her daddy and mommy. She was a hat-check girl,
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: worked at OTB. So we're not talking about, you know,
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: a smooth, easy ride. And she was the first, remember,
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: to ever do updates from the floor of the New
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: York Stock Exchange. That's how she became... famous, and then
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: over at CNBC and then brought over to Fox Business Channel,
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: and nobody expected this.
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: No, nobody expected it because they were even surprised at
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: Fox News. And we can tell you that we know
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: that for a fact because Peter Doocy asked J.D. Vance
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: about it yesterday, and there is speculation right now that
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: she will become the new press secretary. And so Peter Doocy,
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: from Fox News.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: Asked J.D. Vance, the vice president, filling in for the
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: outgoing press secretary, if that is true.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think so.
• 24:28
  Speaker 18: You know, I just saw the news literally as I
• 24:30
  Speaker 18: walked out before.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: I love Maria. I think she's an amazing person, amazing talent.
• 24:34
  Speaker 18: I don't get involved in the personal drama of media stations.
• 24:38
  Speaker 18: In fact, I'd like to invite Peter Doocy to come
• 24:40
  Speaker 18: up here and answer a question about what happened to Maria.
• 24:43
  Speaker 18: But I think whatever she does, look, she's going to
• 24:47
  Speaker 18: do great, and I wish her all the best.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: She's a very, very dear friend.
• 24:50
  Speaker 18: I haven't even talked to her, so I don't know
• 24:52
  Speaker 18: the backstory about why she's decided to leave Fox News.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: Well, she didn't decide to leave, according to Status, which
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: is an online site. Status got information that she was
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: let go. In a brief statement, Fox News said, we
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: thank Maria for her work over the past 12 1⁄2 years.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: and wish her all the best on her next chapter.
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: Status is a media watchdog site. And they say... that
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: after Trump gave a speech in July about election interference,
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: Fox Business officials ordered the network top stars to stay
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: clear of all Trump's unsubstantiated claims about election interference. That
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: is from the memo itself. Several outlets noted that Fox
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: gave little airtime to Trump's speech in the hours and
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: days that followed that speech. But Bartiromo is accused of
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: leaking that company directive to the White House. This is
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: according to Status again. It's unclear if she reached out
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: first or if the Trump team made the request. They
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: don't know how it happened, but they have been able
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: to track down after all these years that it was
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: her that leaked that memo. By the way, Here's a
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: little sample of Trump's speech.
• 26:14
  Speaker 16: This is election interference. They made up a fake case.
• 26:19
  Speaker 16: They're fraudulent people. And the judge already knows what he's
• 26:23
  Speaker 16: going to do. He's a Democrat judge.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: In all fairness to him, he has no choice.
• 26:27
  Speaker 8: He has no choice.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: He's run by the Democrats.
• 26:30
  Speaker 16: I know this city better than anybody knows this city.
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Nobody knows it like I do.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was upset. The ruling had just came down
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: and he was upset, Curtis. And I guess he said
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: some things that made Fox and even Fox News go,
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: let's stay away from this.
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: Look at Rupert Murdoch and his son Lachlan who run it.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: They had to pay out a billion dollars in a
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: settlement with Smartmatic and Dominion, remember? And because they had
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: notes from Marie Bartolome at that time, Janine Pirro, Lou Dobbs,
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: no longer alive. in which they were promoting that, you know,
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: election interference. The reason, you know why they had to settle?
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: It all comes back to Tucker Carlson. Because when he
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: was deposed, when they went through his texts and his emails,
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: he was saying, oh, everybody knew that was BS at Fox,
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: that there was no election interference. So when the Murdochs
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: are confronted with that, that they're going to put Tucker
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: Carlson on the stand and cross-examine, settle, settle, settle. That's it, settle.
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: So they didn't want to have this again. I went
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: through this to a small degree over at WABC. Remember,
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: Rudy Giuliani was fired by WABC because of the Smartmatic
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: and the Dominion case and the fear that they could
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: make billions of dollars from whatever company they were speaking at.
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: So I believe that the last loyal woman standing for Trump,
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: because Janine is now U.S. attorney in D.C. Lou Dobbs
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: passed away. Marie Bartiromo probably informed Trump that going into
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: this two-day convention in Dallas, they've been told, If you
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: talk about election interference, we're not permitted to cover it.
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: And I think they felt you crossed the line.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: You got to go.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I will tell you this. I think Maria Bartiromo
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: is going to be the next press secretary. And look,
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to claim that I know Maria Bartiromo,
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: but I talked to her every week for three years.
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: And it was because, you know how they set up
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: for like, especially in the top five markets, they set
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: up the network people to talk to the top five,
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: the news departments in the top five. I did a
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: Sunday morning show, and she was in on Sunday mornings,
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: and we had her on every week. And she was
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: the sweetest. They're not all. She was the sweetest. She
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: stood out humble. She always asked if we needed to
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: do it again. Did I make any mistakes? Because we
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: did a pre-tape with her. And she would tell stories.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: She would tell stories about what was happening there. She
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: always asked about my family.
• 29:00
  Speaker 20: I mean.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: She was maybe the sweetest of the network stars that
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: I ran into. Her and Al Roker were the two
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: that I thought were just sweethearts.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I concur.
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: I did quite a few interviews with Marie Bartiromo, especially
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: in this last mayoral election cycle.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: Couldn't be nicer. She was Brooklyn through and through and
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: very proud of it.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I wouldn't be surprised if that is announced.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, I know there's been a lot of names
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: bandied about, but my feeling is she might have just
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: risen to the top of the heap because— When Donald
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: Trump feels like you've been loyal and when Donald Trump
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: feels like he owes you, as you've seen in his administration,
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: you mentioned Jeanine Pirro.
• 29:39
  Speaker 20: Right.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Seen in his administration, that happens a lot. Hey, guess what?
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: Curtis's favorite prediction markets, Polymarket and Cauchy, they're in some trouble,
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: not only across the country because of lawsuits, but they're
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: going to be Bend, for the time being, in New Jersey.
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: We'll explain why when we come back. There are two
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: major prediction markets. And let's get this straight. It's not betting.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: It's not gambling. These are solely prediction markets.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: It's gambling.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: It's a prediction market. They're the ones that say it.
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: And that's what the law says. It's a prediction market. Now,
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: you can make money on your predictions. which is sort
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: of like gambling, right? It's kind of the same thing.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: You predict something and then you, but there's no house
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: that sets the odds. You set the odds. It all
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: depends on how people vote. If people are voting one way,
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: the odds are going to go against them because more
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: people are voting a certain way. And so because of that,
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: they have been able to skate around state laws on taxation.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: Because they don't fall. If you look at the legislation,
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: it says gambling sites. And they say we're not a
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: gambling site. Who knew that you could just call yourself
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: something different and then you could get away with things?
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: How many other crimes would that work for?
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: No guardrails nowadays. There's no guardrails. You can be whatever
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: you want to be. As long as people are interested
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: in getting involved in betting, that's all they care about.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: So there's been several.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: States, there's a lot of states across the country that
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: have now gone after Kaoshi with lawsuits and trying to
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: get legislation through. Three states, including New Jersey, have a
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: moratorium on it, but they've taken it a step further now.
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: The New Jersey Attorney General, Jennifer Davenport, has asked the
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Supreme Court to overturn a lower appellate court ruling that
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: sided with Kalshi and the Pali markets and clarify whether
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: states retain the power to regulate the sports betting host
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: sites and prediction market platforms. Now, you know all the
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: other ones, right? You know, FanDuel and Caesars. There's a
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: lot of them. There's a lot of betting sites out there.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Sports betting became legal and it's spread across the country.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: And around the world. And my feeling is it ruined
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: at least TV sports. Because now constantly you get these
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: betting sites. Can we blame El Jefe, Chris Christie for this? Remember,
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: he's the one who pushed it through.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: He fought it all the way to the United States
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: Supreme Court and won.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: Shamu, El Jefe, Chris Christie.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there was a lot of money behind this. And
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: they did get a Supreme Court ruling saying, yeah, it
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: was possible. But listen, the states... can't complain about it.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: The states have made hundreds of billions of dollars across
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: the country on taxing these gambling sites. So, Cauchy and
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: Polymarket have been able to maneuver around that. Listen, they're
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: going to lose this. There's no question because everybody knows
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: it's a gambling site. I mean, I use them both.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: I know it's a gambling site. I think it's pretty
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: cool that you can get odds based on what people
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: think because, you know, a lot of people are stupid.
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: And so you get to bet against them instead of
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: betting against the house and professionals. That set the odds.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: Now, interesting.
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: Have inside information.
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: Before all the states started ganging up on them, Kalshi
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: actually gave information against Polymarket, its competitor, in one of
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: these lawsuits just to try to take them out. So
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: you can see. Now, I'll give you a little bit
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: of an update because everybody is into these prediction markets now.
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: You know, smaller prediction markets are emerging. So a prediction
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: market called Manifold put out– a prediction market, although it's
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: a gambling site also, on who would win the mayoral
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: election in 2029, right? The mayor hasn't even been there
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: a year yet. They already have a prediction market. And
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: the way I learned about this was you got that
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: guy over at WABC, Greg.
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: Kelly, right? Who went all berserk, went nuts.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: Said, I'm going to do everything I can to get
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: Curtis Lewa out of the Republican Party.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: This guy's going to run again. Look at this.
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: 14% Zoran Mondami, 14% Curtis Lewa, 3% Andrew Cuomo, 3%
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: Jessica Tisch.
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: Oh, this is the gambling market?
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, manifold. Now look.
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: Most of the people said, don't you think this is
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: a little too early to be doing a prediction market,
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: a betting market?
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: So he's going crazy on his show.
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: By the way, Greg Kelly, son of Ray Kelly. I
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: know Ray Kelly, great police commissioner. Greg Kelly is no
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: Ray Kelly, that's for sure. So the guy's railing. I'm
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: getting him out of the Republican Party. I'm kicking him out.
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: And I said, I'll bet you this guy is not
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: even a Republican.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: So what do you think?
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: Because everybody is listed on the voting rolls as being
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: either a Democrat, Republican, some form of an independent party,
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: or a blank.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: He's an independent.
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: So the independent guy is going to lobby to kick me,
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: a real Republican, out of the Republican Party, which basically
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: you can't do.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: Nobody keeps roles. You can't be rejected.
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: You go to your voting location and you say, no, no,
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: I'm a Republican.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: I'm a Democrat. I'm a libertarian. Whatever your party choice,
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: I'm an independent. So what an idiot. But then again.
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: It's almost like Andrew evil eyes, Cuomo and Mario Cuomo.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: You know, I had a great relationship with Mario Cuomo,
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: great relationship with Ray Kelly, but I can tell you
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: both of their sons, no Mario Cuomo. No Ray Kelly. Hey,
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: Greg Kelly, you idiot. Maybe you ought to register as
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: a Republican before you start talking about who you're going
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: to kick out of the Republican Party.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: And it's all based on this manifold poll.
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: That's a riot.
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: A prediction which is impossible. The next mayoral election isn't
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: until 2029.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: Well, me and all the other degenerate gamblers out there,
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: the only thing we heard is, oh, there's another site.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: Matter of fact, I'm going to have to check that out. Natalie,
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: could you trace it to make sure he's not betting
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: on this already? God, there's betting on everything.
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: When we come back, well, of course, we're going to
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: talk about the Lindsay Clancy trial. Who knew it was
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: 11 to 1 and there's one holdout? We'll talk more
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: about that coming up.
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: Well, what a shocker in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: A note came from the jurors.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: Saying that they were stuck because of one juror. 11
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: were leaning one way, one juror was not playing ball,
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: and they claim that that juror was ignoring the judge's instructions.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: So the judge, Judge William Sullivan, interviewed each and every
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: one of them and then called them in together and
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: read them in front of full court, in front of
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: all the attorneys, read to them the instructions once again,
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: and said, you must follow these instructions.
• 37:34
  Speaker 7: I want to remind you that you are required to
• 37:37
  Speaker 7: follow my instructions on the law as I gave them
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: to you.
• 37:41
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: But then he said something that made you kind of
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: believe that the one person that was holding out was
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: a person that was calling for the most severe penalty.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: It gave you the indication, which I would never have
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: seen coming, and this might be incorrect. You might have
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: another opinion, or you may have another take on this
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: from hearing what they said. But this stuck out to me.
• 38:10
  Speaker 7: If you evaluate all the evidence and you still have
• 38:13
  Speaker 7: a reasonable doubt remaining, the defendant is entitled to the
• 38:17
  Speaker 7: benefit of that doubt and must be acquitted.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: The defendant is entitled to the benefit of that doubt,
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: which would lead you to believe that that person is
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: standing in the way of reasonable doubt. And so, you know,
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: as I hear it now for the second time, I'm
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: actually turning the other way. Because If it is the
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: defendant that would benefit and they have a reasonable doubt,
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: then maybe the one holdout is not saying most of
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: your penalty, but is saying that this person is either
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: not guilty or this person showed no criminal intent because
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: of a psychosis. Either way, the criminal defense attorney jumped
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: up after that to object to his rulings.
• 39:12
  Speaker 21: It's a shame. It's a real shame. And that's why
• 39:15
  Speaker 21: I object to the court's ruling. I request that we
• 39:18
  Speaker 21: have further inquiry. I request that my motion is to
• 39:22
  Speaker 21: remove this juror that refuses to listen to your instruction
• 39:25
  Speaker 21: on reasonable doubt.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: And he said it once again, leaving the courtroom when
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: he talked to. all of the reporters.
• 39:31
  Speaker 21: If we come back here in a half an hour
• 39:33
  Speaker 21: with a mistrial because of a juror that has just
• 39:38
  Speaker 21: spurned the instructions of this court, it's a shame. It's
• 39:41
  Speaker 21: a real shame.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and the way he's acting leads you to believe
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: that the other ones, I was right the first time,
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: all the other ones wanted to convict. All the other
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: ones want to convict, and there's one holdout for her
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: who is not going to go off that position, and
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: the other 11 are so frustrated, and the defense attorney
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: is so frustrated, they want her removed. But the judge says,
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: I just can't do that. I can't take sides in this.
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: If somebody feels that way, they feel that way. So
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: unless there's a huge change today, and it's been day
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: after day after day after day, they haven't called for
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: any evidence. They haven't called for any questions. It sounds
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: like today it would be a hung jury.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: Well, I look at it differently.
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: If the defense attorney wants that juror removed, that's because
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: he believes she wants his client found guilty. And he
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: feels relatively assured that the other 11 will probably find
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: her guilty as a reason of insanity and then, you know,
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: want to put her away in a mental health facility.
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: So that's probably what he thinks. But we don't know.
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: But the judge also signaled that exact same thing. When
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: the judge said the defendant has the right to one
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: of the jurors having a reasonable doubt. Did he say
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: right or benefit? Let me play that again because I
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: think it was such a substantial statement.
• 41:07
  Speaker 7: If you evaluate all the evidence and you still have
• 41:10
  Speaker 7: a reasonable doubt remaining, the defendant is entitled to the
• 41:14
  Speaker 7: benefit of that doubt and must be acquitted.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: Is entitled. So the benefit of the doubt would have–
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: the reasonable doubt would have benefited her.
• 41:25
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: And that's– And since he talked to each one of them,
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: he's the only one in that courtroom except for the
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: jurors that knew.
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: Well, I think the attorneys were in the courtroom also.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: But the defense attorney then said, okay, that's going to
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: be it.
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: You know, I have one similar situation, completely different case.
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: First time, John Gotti Jr. is on trial for the
• 41:46
  Speaker 4: kidnap and attempted killing of me. The jury came back
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: 11-1 to convict. 11-1 to convict. It was one holdout juror.
• 41:55
  Speaker 4: You get a chance to speak to jurors afterwards if
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: they're willing to talk to you as members of the
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: press or even, you know, if you.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: Happen to be involved in the case.
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: And I'll never forget it was a black woman and
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: I had a chance to talk to her and I said,
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: you do know he tried to kill me, him and Gamby. Oh,
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: I don't doubt that. Well, why did you vote in
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: the negative? Oh, I don't trust anything the U.S. government says.
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: And you imagine what I felt like at that point.
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: So her reasonable doubt was based on the fact that
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: in the voyeur they give you when they try to
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: weed out these kind of jurors who have these prejudices,
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: she filtered through the cracks. Or he would have been
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: doing triple life without parole for attempting to kill me.
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: You imagine how I felt at that moment? Just think
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: of it. Her reasonable doubt was not about me, not
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: about what he intended to do and what his Gambino
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: guys did.
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: But she just didn't trust the U.S.
• 42:47
  Speaker 4: Government, which were the prosecutors, and actually told the jury,
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: we do not represent Mr.
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: Sliwa. We represent the government.
• 42:55
  Speaker 13: Wow.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: But you do.
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: Understand that one holdout jury, and it all goes back
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: to that famous movie, remember, with Henry Fonda, where he's
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: in the jury room, and he's the holdout juror, and
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: the other 11 jurors are screaming at him.
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: And Right, 12 angry men. But he was able to
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: convince all the other ones. The other ones are all
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: just frustrated with this one person. That's because he's an
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: Academy Award winning guy. I guess this one is not. Yeah,
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: and because they were following a script, I guess she
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: didn't get the script on this. But it seems like
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: this holdout is in benefit of the defense. And so, man,
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: I am completely thrown on this.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: But do you realize if we had been doing Polly
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: Market and Kelsey yesterday, I would have made a lot
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: of money. Because remember, I said it's going to go
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: to Friday.
• 43:51
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: And you thought by the end of the day tomorrow,
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: it would be resolved. Jury would be home.
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: I thought it was going to be a hung jury.
• 43:57
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: Which it could have been. I mean, they're basically saying
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: we're a hung jury and we can't get past this
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: one person. but it's only one person. What do we do?
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: And he's making it clear. It doesn't matter that it's
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: one person. If it's one person that doesn't agree with
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: the rest of you, they have just as much right
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: to their opinion as all the rest of you do.
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: But the jurors feel like she's not following the law
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: or the judge's instructions. And so, wow, 11 to one.
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: If they have to call a mistrial because of this,
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: she all the reporters will run to her if she's
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: willing to talk to the reporters shit they'll forget about
• 44:34
  Speaker 4: all the other 11 it's no no no well we'll
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: catch up to you in a few days it's funny
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: that you said her i'm assuming it's a her you
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: do yeah i don't know.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: I don't what do you think i'm a savant like
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: our own crash year Well.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: The odds are it would be. There's nine of them
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: that are women.
• 44:53
  Speaker 5: I was going to say, yeah, there's nine women on
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: the jury.
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: And also, women in juries before have said that they've
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: been bullied because they've been in the minority. You know,
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: normally by whoever is chosen to be the jury foreperson,
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: you know, foreman or forewoman to begin with. I do
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: know of different cases where there's been a female holdout
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: or two. And they kept their position intact because they
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: felt they were being bullied. And they weren't going to
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: be bullied out of their position. Because, you know, it's
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: infighting within the jury box.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: Give me your.
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: Interpretation about this one more time. Because we're reading tea
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: leaves and we're reading what they're all saying. What is
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: your belief that the person that is holding out wants?
• 45:38
  Speaker 4: I say that that person who's holding out wants a
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: more severe penalty.
• 45:43
  Speaker 13: Yes. Yeah.
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: So we're, yeah, yeah, absolutely. We're in agreement. And you
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: get that from this. I'll play this again because this
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: is really important.
• 45:49
  Speaker 21: That's a shame. It's a real shame. And that's why
• 45:52
  Speaker 21: I object to the court's ruling. I request that we
• 45:55
  Speaker 21: have further inquiry. I request that my motion is to
• 45:59
  Speaker 21: remove this juror that refuses to listen to your instruction
• 46:02
  Speaker 21: on reasonable doubt.
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: So obviously, if the defense attorney wants somebody removed, that
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: person is standing in the way of either clearing his
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: client or making it so she only gets some treatment,
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: goes to a psychiatric ward rather than going to prison.
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: And the only way you'd be able to remove a
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: juror at this point in the deliberations is if she
• 46:25
  Speaker 4: was really sick and incapable of proceeding, but you would
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: have an alternate that would take her place. There should
• 46:30
  Speaker 4: be six alternates. I'm not sure what the Massachusetts rules are,
• 46:34
  Speaker 4: but there's probably six alternates who've heard the case also.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: So yeah.
• 46:38
  Speaker 4: The defense attorney, I think, knows that that one person
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: who I think is a woman is the only reason
• 46:45
  Speaker 4: that the judge has not declared a mistrial and told
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: everybody to go home. And it's up to the prosecution.
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: Do you want to do this all over again? The
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: prosecution will probably say, we need a few days, judge.
• 46:57
  Speaker 4: Let's see if we can regroup in about a week.
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: And then I believe that the prosecution would probably reach
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: out to the defense attorney and say, rather than go
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: through all of this, Why don't we just try to
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: work out a plea? Why don't we try to work
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: out something so that when we go before the judge
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: in about a.
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: Week, it's over. It's over. Yeah. Yeah.
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: It's going to be fascinating no matter what happens. This
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: is just every single day. There is some type of
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: drama and I'm sure there's going to be another one today.
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: I agree with Curtis. I'm not sure this could go
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: another day. The jurors are obviously frustrated. They're frustrated with
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: this one person. So, A hung jury does seem to
• 47:36
  Speaker 3: be in the offing, and it sounds like that hung
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: jury is going to benefit the prosecution at this point.
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: Now, looking a little bit into it too much, I
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: believe it's a she that's holding out. I believe she'll
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: probably be getting advice from family or friends. You realize...
• 47:52
  Speaker 4: You could be in for a windfall of money now.
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: People are going to want to have you as the guest.
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: And you know they pay for guests. Yeah, I know.
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: They have the first interviews, books, magazine articles.
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: Why were you the holdout?
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: I think that's a real possibility because even though you're
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: not supposed to be discussing the case, you.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: Know every relative in front knows that they're on that jury.
• 48:14
  Speaker 3: Well, we have to move on. And we have proof
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: positive evidence. that college football is really, really screwed up.
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: We'll tell you about the latest lawsuit and the latest
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: ruling when we come back, plus a chance to see
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: air supply at 825. Well, we have.
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: More proof positive that the NCAA.
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: Curtis, is just completely screwed up.
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: Oh, without a doubt, after last night's loss by Rutgers
• 48:50
  Speaker 4: to the University of Massachusetts, 37-21, University of Massachusetts was
• 48:55
  Speaker 4: 0-12 last year. Think it's time to give a buyout
• 48:59
  Speaker 4: of $ 18 million to Greg Sciano, the coach?
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: You're really surprised at this? Because Rutgers football was cursed
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: by an evil witch long ago. They can't get out
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: of their own way. They never make a good decision.
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: They paid. They paid to have this team come play them.
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: They had lost. You said they were 0-12 last year.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: They've lost 16 straight games. 16 straight games, the longest
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: losing streak. in division one and they came in by
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: the way rutgers was a 28 point favorite in the
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: game and they still lost and guess what they did
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: at the end of the game they set off fireworks
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: people were really.
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: Upset if you're the coach greg sciani you say you
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: want to buy me out cost you 18 mil right
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: now i'll walk I'll walk.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: They are going to take it. That's going to be
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: a bargain. I'll tell you what, that's not what I
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: was talking about. I was actually talking about the NCAA rules. Remember,
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: first of all, they ruled, this was a Supreme Court ruling,
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: that their players deserved compensation. That pretty much ruined it
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: right there. Then recently they ruled, you have a fifth
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: year of eligibility. So if you don't make it at
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: NFL camp, you can go ahead and come back. Well,
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: that got into the mind of some other players who
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: may have made teams, but now they have some more eligibility.
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: They might be able to go back and play if
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: they're going to take NFL players, people that are cut,
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: that sign with a team and then are cut. Why
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: can't we play? So these two players decided that they
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: were going to try to play. Daquan Wright, who was
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: with the Cleveland Browns last year, and Zavian Harris, who
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: who played with Baltimore last year. One is a tight end.
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: One is a lineman. And they decided, okay, we're not
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: going to make it or we're not going to play
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: as much as we want. We can still make money
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: in the NCAA. We have more eligibility. We're going to
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: go back and play. Well, the FCC and the NCAA said, no, no, no,
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: we didn't mean you. We didn't mean you. We just
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: meant some people at camp. You were actually on the team.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: That started a lawsuit. And guess who won?
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: The two players, the judge ruled in their favor, which
• 51:15
  Speaker 4: creates even more chaos because let's assume that they get cut,
• 51:19
  Speaker 4: but they stay on the practice squad. They get paid
• 51:22
  Speaker 4: a minimum amount of money to be on an NFL team.
• 51:25
  Speaker 4: They make way more in college now playing for a
• 51:28
  Speaker 4: college team than they would ever make for being on
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: the practice squad of the very team that cut them.
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: And they get to play.
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: And the amazing thing is that the attorney general in
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: Louisiana and also the local attorney both got on the
• 51:47
  Speaker 3: side of the players.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: Justice was served. And justice was served through the SEC.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: It was served like a cold cup of gumbo. And
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: that judge forced them to eat it.
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: I love Louisiana.
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: He probably went to LSU. That's why he was so
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: pro-LSU doing this. Georgia, though, the Bulldogs said, no, we
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: don't want pros. We don't want pros coming back onto
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: our squad. So it's going to require the president.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: He's put together a committee.
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: That has a lot of previous college coaches. I know
• 52:23
  Speaker 4: Randy Levine of the Yankees, the president, is on it,
• 52:26
  Speaker 4: which they're supposed to set up guardrails. He can't overrule
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: the Supreme Court. If this goes to the Supreme.
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: Court, which a couple of them has, then it's not
• 52:34
  Speaker 3: going to matter what the president does. By the way,
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: that was District Attorney Tony Clayton that was talking a
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: second ago. Now let's get some talkbacks.
• 52:43
  Speaker 9: Larry, I think you have it backwards at a rare
• 52:45
  Speaker 9: time when Curtis is actually right. The burden of proof
• 52:49
  Speaker 9: on proving insanity is on the prosecution. So 11 people
• 52:54
  Speaker 9: obviously think the prosecution has failed that burden, and there's
• 52:59
  Speaker 9: a doubt as to the sanity. The one holdout thinks
• 53:03
  Speaker 9: that the defendant is indeed sane. So that's what it
• 53:07
  Speaker 9: looks like, what is happening.
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I went back and forth on it, but you're
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: exactly right. But it is odd then that the defense said, no, no, no,
• 53:20
  Speaker 3: we should keep this person. That's what was the oddest
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: part about it. Remember, they argued if a juror doesn't
• 53:28
  Speaker 3: get the right of being able to decide that there's
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: not enough evidence, then anyway. It was really hazy there
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: for a second, but I think you're right.
• 53:41
  Speaker 13: Hey, Larry, you do a disservice to the public, especially
• 53:45
  Speaker 13: young adults and kids, by diluting the message about these
• 53:50
  Speaker 13: prediction markets. They're gambling. They are skirting the law. It's
• 53:54
  Speaker 13: causing a whole generation of young kids to get addicted
• 53:58
  Speaker 13: to gambling, and it's going to be a problem in
• 54:00
  Speaker 13: the future. The legislatures have to address this, and I
• 54:04
  Speaker 13: don't know why Trump supports it.
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: I think I was pretty clear I knew it was gambling.
• 54:08
  Speaker 3: I was being sarcastic at the very beginning saying that
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: it wasn't gambling because obviously, obviously it is. What's going
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: to be really interesting in the lawsuit is that they
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: go back to money lost because if that happens, they
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: may have to pay billions in this settlement. Now, Daria
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: Albinger with the 730 News.
• 54:28
  Speaker 15: Anybody ever tell you got to hold up the sarcasm sign, Larry,
• 54:31
  Speaker 15: when you're using sarcasm?
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: Doesn't work in radio.
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: Do you know how many times I've been caught by that?
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: Curtis Lewa and Larry Minty in the morning.
• 54:38
  Speaker 5: Guaranteed human.
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: On 710WOR.
• 54:44
  Speaker 4: On the line right now, Rob Astorino, former county executive
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: guy who gave a really good run against Andrew Evil
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: Eyes Cuomo for the governorship. And now, a fixture at
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: Newsmax and naturally here at WOR, Saturdays 4 to 5. Now, Rob,
• 54:59
  Speaker 4: as a good Republican, as you've always been, have you...
• 55:03
  Speaker 4: heard the call from the RNC and President Trump to
• 55:06
  Speaker 4: come to Dallas, come to Dallas for the 9th and
• 55:09
  Speaker 4: the 10th before 9-11, sort of a mini convention before
• 55:13
  Speaker 4: the president makes the big push to hold the House
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: and keep the Senate?
• 55:19
  Speaker 10: I have heard the call, Curtis, but I am not going.
• 55:25
  Speaker 10: As of now, I am not going. It's going to
• 55:29
  Speaker 10: be interesting. Look, I think Newsmax and Fox will cover it.
• 55:34
  Speaker 11: You'll have CNN and MSNOW will probably have as little
• 55:40
  Speaker 11: as humanly possible. And even with that, with a sourpuss
• 55:43
  Speaker 11: on and distort whatever is said.
• 55:45
  Speaker 10: And the networks aren't going to cover it.
• 55:46
  Speaker 11: I mean, this is not a presidential election or nomination convention.
• 55:52
  Speaker 10: So I don't... Look, I think it's a good idea
• 55:56
  Speaker 10: to try it. But even before this starts.
• 56:00
  Speaker 11: I just saw a poll yesterday, I think it was
• 56:02
  Speaker 11: the Harvard-Harris poll. The Republicans in the generic ballot there
• 56:06
  Speaker 11: with likely voters are actually winning on the ballot against Democrats.
• 56:11
  Speaker 11: And some of the other polls that I've seen, just
• 56:13
  Speaker 11: the other public polls, the numbers are starting to come down,
• 56:17
  Speaker 11: they're getting a little closer.
• 56:18
  Speaker 10: So maybe things are actually heading in the.
• 56:21
  Speaker 11: Right direction as people are starting to really understand what's
• 56:26
  Speaker 11: at stake here.
• 56:27
  Speaker 10: And as you got the El Sayeds.
• 56:28
  Speaker 11: And the others on the left getting a lot of
• 56:31
  Speaker 11: attention and people.
• 56:31
  Speaker 10: Like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what? What did they just say? So,
• 56:36
  Speaker 10: you know, I guess Labor Day is their traditional kickoff
• 56:39
  Speaker 10: and we're here.
• 56:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not as optimistic as you are. And I
• 56:44
  Speaker 3: follow the Cook Report like I follow box scores. And
• 56:49
  Speaker 3: they don't paint a really good picture right now. It
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: used to be 15 toss-ups. That was just a couple
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: of weeks ago. Now there are 21 toss-ups in the House.
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: 16 of them are Republican seats. And then when you
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: go to the Senate, it used to be four. Now
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: it's six. Five of the six are Republican seats. There's
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: some horrible numbers right now.
• 57:13
  Speaker 11: Yeah, but remember, the Cook Report and those like it,
• 57:16
  Speaker 11: Sabato and others, you know, they're It's a subjective measure
• 57:22
  Speaker 11: on what they go lean Democrat, lean Republican to some extent.
• 57:26
  Speaker 11: I mean, they try to use an aggregate of the polls,
• 57:28
  Speaker 11: but then they also try to use whatever formulas they
• 57:31
  Speaker 11: decide to use. I'm not saying it's not a great
• 57:34
  Speaker 11: mood right now.
• 57:35
  Speaker 10: I don't think it is.
• 57:36
  Speaker 11: If it were tomorrow, the election, I think Republicans would
• 57:39
  Speaker 11: lose the House. I still think they're going to hold
• 57:41
  Speaker 11: the Senate. Honestly, Texas is going to be Texas in
• 57:46
  Speaker 11: the end.
• 57:47
  Speaker 10: Maybe it's a little closer. Look, I've talked to people.
• 57:51
  Speaker 11: In Texas, who have seen the inside numbers, they are
• 57:53
  Speaker 11: not happy where things are right now. But there's still
• 57:56
  Speaker 11: a lot of time to play out and a lot
• 57:58
  Speaker 11: of voters to vote the way they normally do.
• 58:02
  Speaker 10: Same thing with Alaska. Michigan is a real pickup opportunity.
• 58:07
  Speaker 11: North Carolina is a little closer than people think.
• 58:08
  Speaker 10: And Trump won that state three times. So there are
• 58:11
  Speaker 10: still plenty of runway left.
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: Rob Astorino, let's look at the election prospects for 2028. Yesterday,
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: we had an opportunity to look at J.D. Vance, again,
• 58:25
  Speaker 4: our vice president, as the spokesperson for the Trump administration
• 58:30
  Speaker 4: until they find a permanent one. What is this weird
• 58:34
  Speaker 4: obsession he has with Tucker Carlson? He cannot seem to
• 58:39
  Speaker 4: treat him like dandruff, you know, like Yeah, we were friends, but,
• 58:44
  Speaker 4: you know, he's gone his own way. He's no longer
• 58:46
  Speaker 4: a member of the Republican Party. He's been ostracized by Trump.
• 58:50
  Speaker 4: Why this continued, almost like open friendship with him that
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: is not being received well by a lot of Republicans?
• 59:01
  Speaker 11: Well, first off, I think we need to put this
• 59:04
  Speaker 11: rumor to bed or just make the damn announcement get
• 59:07
  Speaker 11: it over with curtis are you taking over for caroline
• 59:10
  Speaker 11: levitt or.
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: Not no but it might be maria bartolome after that
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: after that announcement that she's gone yesterday unexpectedly from fox.
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: Could you imagine Curtis in that job? Could you imagine?
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: The reporters wouldn't get a word in.
• 59:29
  Speaker 10: Not only that, but he would say, let me just
• 59:31
  Speaker 10: say this. I totally disagree with.
• 59:33
  Speaker 2: The president on this one.
• 59:37
  Speaker 11: That job would last a lot less than Scaramucci's.
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: That's for sure. But why this obsession that J.D. Vance
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: has in not wanting to detach himself from Tucker Carlson?
• 59:51
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, it's interesting.
• 59:55
  Speaker 11: J.D.
• 59:55
  Speaker 10: Vance's son works for Carlson, I believe. No, Carlson's son
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 10: works in J.D. 's office. So there's a family connection there, too.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 11: Now, with the problems that Tucker Carlson, who has a
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 11: big following, though, by the way, but the problems that
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 11: he has kind of caused the Republicans and Trump, I
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 11: don't know why Trump hasn't pulled him in at one
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 11: of these lunches and said to J.D.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 10: Vance, you know, hey... What are you doing here? But
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 10: here's the but. Is there any relationship that can't be repaired, i.e.,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 10: Michael Cohen, Elon Musk? I mean, does anyone not think.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 11: That Tucker Carlson might be speaking at the next convention
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 11: or having a press conference?
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: So– Hey, there was a really important meeting at the
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: White House this week, and that was Donald Trump with
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 3: the oil executives. I just went through the transcripts. I
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: didn't really read them thoroughly, but I went through just
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: to see if it jumped out with the president putting
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: some pressure on them to bring down gas prices. I
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: didn't find anything right now, but I can't believe that's
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 3: not happening.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 11: Well, because the torture chamber is not in the Oval
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 11: Office downstairs in the White House where the Secret Service
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 11: took them and they were hooked up. You know, and
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 11: here's the other thing that the vice president yesterday, I think,
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 11: had an opportunity to kind of do. I mean, you know,
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 11: the headlines, the vice president says nobody cares. The administration
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 11: doesn't care about gas prices. Obviously, that's not true. I mean,
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 11: there's a real direct correlation.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 10: With the American mood.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 11: And obviously the way they might vote between gas prices
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 11: and how they'll vote.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 10: We've seen that when it goes down, gas prices, the
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 10: mood goes up, which is better for the Republicans. It's
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 10: just the opposite. So it's a real issue.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 11: And it's one that I think they've got to not
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 11: only pay attention to, which they obviously are with the
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 11: oil executives there, but be very cognizant in every word
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 11: they say and not kind.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 10: Of blow it off, which I don't think he really did.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 10: But that's how it came across, at least, you know,
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 10: in the headlines.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that the gas prices are actually going
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 3: to come down, and I think they're going to come
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: down for several reasons. That torture chamber might be reason
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: number one. I think there's going to be some heavy
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 3: pressure on the oil companies after all the things that
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump has done for them.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 10: Well, yeah. I mean, think of this one thing.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 11: I mean, who would the oil and gas industry prefer
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 11: to be in charge? Republicans or Democrats who will go
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 11: after them With a vengeance. I mean, even if they've
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 11: made a ton of profit with oil price rises, they
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 11: could eat some profit over the next month or so
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 11: to bring down gas. And that would be to their
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 11: own benefit. I mean, seriously, you have to think about
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 11: the long run. If I'm a CEO of a company,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 11: oil and gas.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, good point.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 2: All right, well, appreciate it, Rob Astorino.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 4: Again, catch him here at WOR this Saturday, 4 to 5.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 4: Same time, same place next week. Rob, it'll be 9-11
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 4: and obviously a very solemn occasion.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 11: Yep, yep.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 10: Have a wonderful weekend, guys.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: You too.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 4: Well, a tale of two cities as you schlepped up
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 4: from the streets to the suites. And, Natalie, the tale
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 4: of two cities is, if you listen to the mayor
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 4: and police commissioner, we've never been safer. But if you
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 4: talk to people on the subways and streets, they're concerned
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 4: about being pushed into subway tracks in front of an
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 4: oncoming train or being slashed or stabbed like, unfortunately, the
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 4: woman from New Jersey who's dead in Times Square.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 22: The NYPD, right, saying it's the safest summer on record
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 22: in New York City. The report that made headlines came
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 22: out after a spate of violence. This week, the biggest story,
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 22: a 49-year-old woman who stabbed two people in Times Square,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 22: killing a 32-year-old mother who was just getting back to
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 22: work after maternity leave.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 5: So are people really feeling secure?
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's frightening.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 5: Absolutely frightening.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 23: I am scared to go down to 42nd Street and
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 23: I'm a native New Yorker.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 24: It's a city, so no, I'm not surprised or shocked.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 24: I am hurt that there are so many people with
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 24: mental health issues that are not getting the support. that
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 24: they need. Again, there's how many millions of people? That
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 24: was two people. I just, I don't feel unsafe.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 20: I don't think we have a mayor that cares about
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 20: its people. I think he had a great marketing campaign.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 20: I don't think he's doing enough for the city.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 22: Well, there were only 195 shootings from June 1st to
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 22: August 31st, 32 fewer than the same stretch of time
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 22: last year.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 5: There were 66 murders. And Governor Hochul says New.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 22: York has marked an eight month stretch of record low
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 22: gun violence. But Curtis, as you pointed out in just
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 22: this week, a lot of these crimes are really being
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 22: done with knives. We saw the woman with the two
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 22: kitchen knives in Times Square. We saw, as we know,
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 22: your nephew stabbed or cut up.
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: Box cutter. Box cutter by St.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 5: Patrick's Cathedral.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 22: These are knife attacks happening now, despite a drop in
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 22: overall crime. that New York City or New York State says,
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 22: the city has reported a rise in hate crimes.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 20: I mean, hate crimes have been at an all-time high
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 20: for Jewish people, for all kinds of people in the city,
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 20: and I'm not okay with it. I was just in Italy,
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 20: felt safe walking home at 11 o'clock at night here.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 20: I take a cab. So, I mean, our mayor... should
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 20: change what he's doing to make it safer here and
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 20: to not waste time on things that are not relevant.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 20: And I really think that that's something to be changed.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 20: And I think that the police should be respected here.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 23: We need more cops, okay? We cannot get rid of
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 23: the cops. We have to have more policemen. And that's
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 23: how I really feel. And I think they're stupid to
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 23: say we don't need the cops.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 22: Yeah, earlier this summer, Mayor Mamdani backed down from increasing
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 22: the NYPD's headcount because of a $ 70 million price tag
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 22: that came with it. So, okay, no bump in the ranks,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 22: but are we doing enough as a city for mental
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 22: health patients or people experiencing mental health crises? Like the
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 22: woman who was running around Times Square saying, with a
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 22: pair of knives.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 10: You know what?
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 24: I'm glad to ask that because no, I think they
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 24: need to help the families and caretakers of people with
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 24: mental health issues because that's the thing. If they're over 18,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 24: you can't do anything. Well, this is the result. This
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 24: is what happens. Can you imagine?
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 5: She was probably soaked.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 24: All those police officers I saw on TV, all those
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 24: police officers surrounding her, all those people. If her family
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 24: could have done things differently, I am sure they would have.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 24: Could you imagine what they may have been experiencing at home?
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 2: A lot of people are crying out for help. A
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: lot of people, they don't know how to expound. They
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: don't know how to explain their situation.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 22: Well, I will say the mental health issue is rampant
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 22: here in New York City in a sense of that.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 22: Just when I was doing Man on the Street, I
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 22: have to say in that time frame, maybe three or
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 22: four people screaming on the street. It makes you look
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 22: over your shoulder, you know, to make sure nobody's truly
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 22: coming at you. So There are these things that, yes,
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 22: stats show different numbers, but when you're on the street,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 22: you're walking around.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 5: It's a little bit of a different feeling.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 3: Absolutely. I feel like it's mental health pinball sometimes. When
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 3: you're walking, you just want to keep avoiding things. People
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 3: that are talking to themselves or are crazy or yelling out.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 3: It's constantly because you don't know when they're going to
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 3: go off.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: And they constantly go off. You have a couple of
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 3: examples that you just talked about in your piece. No,
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: it doesn't feel that way on the streets.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 4: No, and I'll give you an update on my nephew.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 4: He was slashed and stabbed on that same day as
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 4: the woman was killed in Times Square a few hours
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 4: later in front of St. Pat's and across some sacs.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: They caught the individual up in Summers, New York, the
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 4: New York State troopers. They brought him back for arraignment
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 4: in Manhattan. He was charged with felony assault, a bail
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 4: of $ 100, 000, right?
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 4: And he made it. So now it goes to a
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 4: grand jury. But my nephew is home. He's recovering. It'll
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 4: be a long recovering.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: But again.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 4: It's slashings, it's stabbings. In this case, I don't think
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 4: it's an emotionally disturbed person. I don't. But to be continued.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 4: Let me tell you, next week, Natalie will be back
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 4: at 7.50 with a special series on stories about September 11th,
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 4: 25 years later. So I do appreciate all the hard
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 4: work you're putting into this, Natalie.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 4: And up next, maybe it's time to get a press
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 4: secretary who can stay on message because Vice President Vance
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 4: was trying out for the 2028 election and not necessarily
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 4: to be the spokesperson for Trump. You know, Larry, while
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 4: the president awaits the appointment, we think of a permanent
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 4: White House spokesperson. I think yesterday is an indication why
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 4: he needs it. It was Vice President Vance's opportunity to
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 4: answer a series of questions and obviously to make statements
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 4: attributable to the president. Probably Rubio will be next, maybe
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 4: Besnet next, the Treasury. I think based on what I
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 4: heard and saw yesterday, you got to get somebody who's
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 4: just on message and not running for the presidency in 2028.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 4: Because when I'm looking at Vance, I'm saying, this guy's
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 4: already looking at possibly Rubio challenging him in the primary.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 4: We come after a week of Ted Cruz saying, I
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 4: want to run. So why is he doing the press
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 4: conference when he may have an alternative motive to say
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 4: some of the things that he does, rather than somebody
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 4: who can just deliver the message that Donald Trump, our president,
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 4: wants delivered before the nation and the world.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: Well, Trump allegedly thought he did a great job. I
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 3: watched the entire thing. I really enjoyed Vance. I think
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 3: he's a rock star. But he did say some controversial things,
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 3: at least that the media and you picked out as
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: being controversial, like Joe Biden.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 18: I think that sense of commonality and common purpose that
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 18: we all had on 9-11 is That's something that we
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 18: should really try every single day to get back to.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 18: And if even just for a day, even if just
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 18: for a few hours, I would encourage people to tune in.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 18: I'm also, as you guys can probably guess, I'm really
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 18: looking forward to hanging out with Joe Biden. I'm sure
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 18: that we'll have many, many intense intellectual conversations.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 2: And, you know, it'll be great.
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 4: And the reason he's commenting on that is Joe Biden,
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 4: it was announced, will actually be attending the New York commemoration.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 4: We thought he had, you know, the serious stage four
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 4: prostate cancer, but apparently he can't attend. Vice President Vance
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 4: will be there. He said a lot of nice things
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 4: about that. Also, why the president should be at the Pentagon.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 4: And he also pointed out, hey, remember, there's Western Pennsylvania also.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 4: All of these areas were hit on 9-11. I thought
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 4: up until that point, he did a very good job. No,
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 4: he said other things about it. He said we all
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 4: can't be in the same place at one time. Other
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 4: presidents have given speeches at the Pentagon before. I'm going
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 4: to be representing the administration. Four other presidents are going
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 4: to be there.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 3: Everything he said was on target, and then he wanted
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 3: to be funny. And it just wasn't the time. Man,
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 3: it landed like a thud, too. Nobody in the room
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: reacted to that.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 4: Intellectual conversation with Joe Biden, please.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a bad one. And, you know, if
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 3: I give him as much respect as I do all
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 3: the time, I'll give him respect on this one. I
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 3: have a feeling he went, oh, you know, inside. He
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 3: realized that. That was not the right time for that.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 4: Or it may have been to score points with the president,
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 4: who any time you could take a shot at Joe Biden,
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 4: you know, he's more than happy to applaud that.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, at the end of any other statement,
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 3: you could take that shot. Not talking about being at 9-11,
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: you don't take that shot there. Here he is talking
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 3: about the war.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 10: I wouldn't call it a war. Right now, there is
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 10: no active shooting.
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 18: I recognize there have been places where this has flared up.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 18: Major combat operations, again, major combat operations lasted for about
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 18: six weeks.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 3: Here's the thing about that. I actually agree with him.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 3: If you remember, I kept saying in the beginning, this
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 3: isn't a war. I mean, we haven't sent any troops.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 3: There's nobody on the ground. There's nobody fighting. I changed
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: when the president started calling it a war. When he
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 3: started calling it a war, I thought, well, I guess
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 3: it's a war now. I never lived up to that,
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 3: much like they called it the Libya war for a while,
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 3: and they stopped. but Libya wasn't a war. We weren't
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: involved in a war with them. That was mostly internal.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 3: We were just applying pressure. I think that's the case
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: in this too. So I think he's correct, but you're right.
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 3: He's stepping outside what the administration's.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 4: And also let's face it. The rest of the world
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 4: looks at it as a war. I think most Americans
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 4: look at it as a war. We want to resolve it.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 4: We want to resolve it.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 3: But here's the problem with it. I mean, you can
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: make the argument that it's not a war because it
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: doesn't live up to the past wars. I mean, President Obama,
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: when he was sending drones around the world and bombing
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 3: 18 countries, if this is a war, that's a war.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 3: And that wasn't called a war, but the media immediately
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 3: called this a war and others jumped in on it.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 3: And I remember you jumped in on it.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, because the president called it an excursion, which
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 4: is a vacation. I mean, he didn't even realize what
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 4: the meaning of excursion is.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah. He, he, he misspoke on that. And I know
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 3: you keep bringing that up, but I, If we want
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 3: to bring up misspeaking, we got a president that J.D.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 3: Vance is going to be standing next to that did
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 3: it constantly.
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 18: We've been quite successful up to this point. Gas, frankly,
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 18: could have been much, much higher were it not for
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 18: our efforts. But I'm not going to make a promise
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 18: about when it's going to return to $ 3. What I
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 18: will say is that we have to remember, why are
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 18: we doing this? Number one, it's so that Iran never
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 18: has a nuclear weapon.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 3: So he would not promise that gas prices are going
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 3: to come down.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 10: Correct.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump has been promising that gas prices are going
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 3: to go down. I'm just giving you the points that
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 3: you were making that he went off the reservation.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 2: A couple of times.
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 4: And again, part of his brain, you know, he has
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 4: two parts of his brain. I'm the vice president. I'm
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 4: loyal to Trump, which he is, even though he's been
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 4: opposed to this war. We know initially he was opposed,
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 4: but he's been very loyal. But he's also now looking
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 4: behind his back at Rubio, Ted Cruz and maybe others.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: So this is a little bit towards 2028. I think
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 4: the problem with the administration is while he was saying
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 4: that and all eyes were on him, the Treasury Secretary
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 4: was with the G20 conference and the Russian who also
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 4: attended and blaming the Ukraine for the rising gas prices
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 4: because they keep bombing Russia's supply and Russia's refineries. It's
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 4: sort of like, okay, that's a war, this is a war,
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 4: so why don't we resolve this so we can be
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 4: paying under maybe $ 3 a gallon? Because you know that's
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 4: the main concern of many Americans is the price of
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 4: a gallon of gas, but more importantly, the price of diesel,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 4: because diesel then affects the transport of all the goods
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 4: and the prices you get charged in the retail or
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 4: supermarkets or for products. So I think most Americans say, well, yes, sure.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 4: Get these wars out of the way.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: If that's the reason we're paying all this money.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 3: You can't be like, let's just get this war out
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 3: of the way. You can't just pull out of the
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 3: war at this point. I mean, at this point, we're
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 3: in it. And at this point, we have one goal.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 3: One goal and one goal only to make sure that
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 3: they won't have a nuclear weapon, which, by the way,
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 3: the world agrees with. Everybody agrees with that. The EU
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 3: agrees with it. Even Canada that we're fighting, they agree
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 3: with that. And so, yes, if we're in this, if
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 3: we're going to take this fight, if we're going to
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 3: waste all these resources on this effort, then you've got
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 3: to make it work. At this point, you can't pull out.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: It's not just like, OK, it's going to be over with.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: We've got a midterm coming up. We've got to win
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 3: the midterms. I think the gas prices are going to
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: come down. We'll see if those gas prices come down.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: I think J.D. Vance is a rock star, and I
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 3: think it's an administration full of a lot of rock stars.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 3: You mentioned a couple of them. Scott Besson, I think,
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 3: has been amazing. I also really like Marco Rubio. It's
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: going to be really fascinating. Now you have Hegseth apparently
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: talking about running for president as well.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, God, please, no.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, no, he's put together a committee and everything.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's looking at it, too. It is going
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 3: to be fascinating to see this race when it comes,
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: because how much are they going to go after each other?
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 4: Oh, they're going to go full throttle against one another.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: But that's—and the Achilles heel— that J.D.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 4: Vance has is he will not extricate himself from Tucker Carlson.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 4: He was asked that yesterday at the press conference. You
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 4: would almost think that they were long-lost friends. He will
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 4: not denounce him. Now, Tucker Carlson has denounced the Republican Party.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 4: He has left the Republican Party. He says, I'm going
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 4: to start a third party. That isn't going to hurt
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 4: the Democrats. That would hurt the Republicans in an election
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 4: in 2028. Now, I don't know if he's saying... Well,
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 4: I'll stay close to Tucker. Maybe I can convince him
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 4: not to launch a third party. But it's too much
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 4: of this. And the other candidates, as you know, will
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 4: denounce Tucker Carlson. All that you mentioned will denounce Tucker Carlson.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 4: They will not embrace him. And it's a very strange
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 4: way he talks about Tucker Carlson. Now, as was mentioned
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 4: with Rob Asherino in the 7 o'clock hour, I believe
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 4: Tucker Carlson's oldest son, works for J.D.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: Vance in the vice president's office, or at least used to.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 2: They're obviously lifelong friends.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 4: But the president was very quick at a certain point
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 4: after Tucker Carlson had an easy pass in and out
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 4: of the White House. Remember how many times Tucker Carlson
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 4: would show up? Just walk right in. That easy pass
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 4: was revoked. He was banned. Tucker Carlson said, I renounce
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 4: the Republicans. I'm leaving the party. I may start a
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 4: third party. Who cares?
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: Seriously, he has very little.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 3: Little impact anymore. Tucker Carlson is a non-entity in this race,
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 3: except for people who somehow want to cause some disconsent.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 3: So yeah, he's going to come up. It's not going
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 3: to come from the Republicans. It's going to be like
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 3: the Republicans talking about Hassan Piker. The other side is
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 3: going to bring it up to try to stir up
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 3: some discontent but i wouldn't even have mentioned it today
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 3: nobody talks about it anymore.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 4: Look at all the one percentage who kept somebody from
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 4: winning the presidency need i go back ralph nader the
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 4: green party candidate stein there's a history of this let's
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 4: say he decided no i'm gonna run he gets one
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 4: percent that could change the outcome of the election a lot.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 3: Of people say they're gonna run and then they try
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 3: to get the money and they can't run so we'll
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 3: see we'll see if he does I think it's all
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 3: talk right now, and I think a lot of it
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 3: is just to get some attention. So, now, I don't
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 3: think he's going to run. I think he's a complete non-entity.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 3: He made a mistake leaving Fox News.
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 4: Well, you never know by his numbers and the people
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 4: who watch him and the money that he's generated and
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 4: all the friends he has in the Persian Gulf and
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 4: the Middle East.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got a lot of friends overseas that pay him.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 3: That's where he makes his money. Some of them are
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 3: our allies. Not so much on his podcast. Could New
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 3: York have a Dolly Parton day, plus a chance to
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 3: see Air Supply coming up next?
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: Curtis Lewa and Larry Mendte in the morning, live from
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: the WOR Life Fact Studios.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 4: Larry, we just talked with Natalie Magliore about all the
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 4: stabbings and slashings in this city attributed to emotionally disturbed persons. Apparently,
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 4: another one just happened. New York City cops shoot knife-wielding men.
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 4: Who charged at them on the Brooklyn Bridge. I'm assuming
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 4: he was emotionally disturbed. But we'll have more details right
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 4: before the 9 o'clock hour before Mark Simone, actually his substitute,
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 4: Ken Rosato, is in today.
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: Possibly more details on that.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you something happier
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 3: and much nicer than that. The New York has legislation
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 3: right now in the state Senate to make September 25th,
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 3: Dolly Parton day. Now think about it. Tennessee has already
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 3: done the same thing. And it's probably going to spread
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 3: across the country. New York would be the second state,
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 3: you know, September 25th, nine to five. Now you'll remember
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 3: they already have may the fourth as star Wars day,
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 3: you know, may the fourth be with you. And so
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 3: you're seeing this happening a lot, but this one, I
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 3: believe is, is way more special and it's going to
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 3: be enshrined in legislation that And so it's a nice
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 3: thing because who is nicer, who is more iconic that
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 3: we couldn't even think of anybody than Dolly Parton?
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 4: Although with Labor Day upon us, some union people out there,
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 4: whether civil or in the private sector, saying, oh, do
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 4: we get a day off with pay on that day?
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's going to happen.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 5: September 25th is my anniversary.
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: Oh, really? Yeah. So it's already enshrined.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 5: I'm just so excited to share it.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. This is awesome.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 3: Now nine to five always is going to be part
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: of your anniversary. I never thought of it. Let's get
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 3: to some talkbacks.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 25: You can't tell me crime is down in New York.
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 25: I moved out in New York after 50 years because
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 25: of the crime. Look at the young lady with that
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 25: beautiful child, eight months old, stabbed to death on her
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 25: first day back from maternity. They can spew anything you want.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 25: Tish and Mondami can tell the news anything fake and
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 25: people believe it.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 2: Are you kidding me?
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 25: Wise up, people in New York.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 4: At least She's not meaning Jessica Tisch and Mayor Zahn
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 4: using the term that Adams used over and over.
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 2: Remember, it's your perception. It's your perception. No, it's the reality.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 4: That this issue, that woman dying who just was on
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 4: maternity leave, the executive for Bank of America.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: This will be remembered for a long, long time.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 3: I think you're right. I think it's going to be
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 3: a catalyst towards change. Remember, now in two cities, including Washington, D.C.,
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 3: the nation's capital. There have been people that have been
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 3: arrested for fudging the numbers. So all of these Democratic
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 3: cities better watch out, including New York City, because I
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 3: do think they're fixing the numbers and they're just not
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 3: reporting some crimes. Larry Curtis, I'm a native New Yorker
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 3: for 65 years. I'm not safe going into the city,
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 3: but I don't even know who's crazy because people have
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 3: in their earbuds and they're talking on their phone.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 2: So I don't know who's crazy.
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 3: I agree with you. The earbuds are the best thing
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 3: that ever happened to the homeless because if they just
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 3: put one in, it looks like they're talking to somebody.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 4: And how many times have I been sort of fooled?
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 4: I'm thinking someone's talking to me. When they're not talking
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 4: to me, they're talking to somebody else. God only knows
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 4: where they are, but through their earbud.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 3: And then you always get the index finger. Through that
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 3: blue phone. Because you go to answer them and they
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 3: put the index finger up.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 8: Oh, no.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 2: For me, it's the middle finger.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 4: Any other business, you can make numbers work any way
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 4: you want them to work.
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 13: Sometimes we used to say in my own business, numbers lie.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 3: You can skew them any way you want.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and they're trying really hard with these after-summer stats. Again,
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 4: when you have a situation like this, these random, they
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 4: call it random attacks, slashing, stabbings, and when it results
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 4: in the death, look how many of you people, Natalie
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 4: and Larry, I say you people because you come in
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 4: from Jersey or wherever to work in New York City,
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 4: You identify with that woman who was just slashed, stabbed,
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 4: and killed. You can identify with her. Absolutely. You can't
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 4: apply a stat to that. No, I agree with you
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 4: a thousand percent. And by the way, the Justice Department,
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 4: you're going after other cities.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 3: New York, take a look at New York's numbers.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 17: Just a little advice for Curtis when he's driving his
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 17: Pinto over the George Washington Bridge, getting ready to throw
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 17: the coins into the basket for the toll. Just pop
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 17: an 8-track in while your wife is reading the math
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 17: course directions. Once you see the Sears, you may go
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 17: left at the Roy Rogers.
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 3: And by the way, in Jersey, don't talk on that
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 3: flip phone of yours because you're going to get pulled over.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: And you can't toss coins any longer.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 5: Well, none of that you could do. Your 8-track.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 2: The Sears. It has to be a yellow pinto, though.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: I want a yellow pinto to stand out. To stand out. Curtis, Larry,
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 2: Curtis Sliwa, and Larry Menti in the morning. 710-WOR.
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 3: Well, across the country, women are pausing to remember and
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 3: pay tribute to women's liberation icon Gloria Steinem. Not just women,
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 3: everybody is, who died Wednesday at the age of 92.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 3: Steinem became a symbol of feminism, advocating for women's reproductive rights,
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 3: equal pay, workplace equality. And now some of the people
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 3: that are leading that movement today, like Galia Paliga, who
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 3: is a state president for now, says that she only
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 3: got to where she is like many women did because
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 3: of Gloria Steinem.
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 5: Her changes were already in effect.
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 6: You know, so that I could go to school and
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 6: do computer science and was already more fairly treated.
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 3: She's amazing. She was a journalist. She was an editor.
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 3: She was a co-owner of magazines, including Ms. You know,
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 3: she was the pinnacle of the movement, and she is
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 3: an icon to today. And many of us remember at
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 3: some of the rallies she would hold across the country
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 3: here in New York City, but there was one in Washington, D.C.,
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 3: that to show you what her influence was, became a
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 3: global rally. And while she was there and speaking, she
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 3: talked about that. She talked about the fact that she
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 3: just got word from Germany.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 8: I was just talking with people from our many sister marches,
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 8: including the one in Berlin, and they asked me to
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 8: send a special message. We in Berlin know that walls
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 8: don't work.
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 3: You know, she got the presidential... medal for freedom from
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 3: Barack Obama and he phrased it pretty darn well.
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 4: Because of her work across America and around the world,
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 4: more women are afforded the respect and opportunities that they deserve.
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's women today, Curtis, to this day that have
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 3: some liberties, that have some freedom that weren't there. It's
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 3: hard to remember that far back when women had difficulty
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 3: when it came to colleges and universities and in the workplace.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 4: It was lucky she emerged. She became the face of
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 4: the now movement because with her was Betty Friedan. And
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 4: that was the stereotype that most guys wanted to believe. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 4: you're all bra burners, bitch. And she would say, thank you.
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 4: Thank you for calling me Beyonce or whatever you called me, Ms.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 2: Magazine.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 4: But a lot of people objected to the fact that
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 4: in the promo that was run, I talked about how
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 4: she was a CIA agent.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 2: No, she's not. You're making that up. No, no, no, no, no, no.
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 4: I spent time in Toledo where she was born and raised.
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 4: I remember being with a guy who said, man, I
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 4: went to school with Gloria Steinem. And she was a
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 4: damn good daughter because her mother, and boy, this is
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 4: right in line with what we've been talking about, was
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 4: assigned to a sanitarium for the mentally ill.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: She had a mental breakdown.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 4: Her father was an antique salesman he just skipped and
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 4: went to California and she decided to stay with her
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 4: mother she was the youngest daughter the oldest daughter went
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 4: to Washington DC and she cared for her mother so
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 4: obviously back then You know, you get assigned to a
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 4: mental sanitarium. You're the youngest daughter. You're caring for your mom.
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 4: You decide once she's permanently assigned to that sanitarium, you
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 4: got to get out of Toledo. She goes to England.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 4: She has an abortion when it was illegal. It's 1957.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 4: She could have gone to jail. The doctor could have
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 4: gone to jail. She wrote extensively about that. Went to
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 4: India for two years. Wanted to find herself. And then
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 4: when she came back... Guess who recruited her into the CIA?
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 4: An agent who said, you know, you're so good at
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 4: what you do. You're so convincing. I want you to
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 4: help to organize delegations of young progressive Americans to attend
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 4: worldwide youth meetings sponsored by the Soviet Union. It was
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 4: called Independent Research Service. Now, she was not a communist.
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 4: She was opposed to communism. So she not only became
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 4: the person organizing other young progressives, but encouraging them when
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 4: they went with her to the satellite countries. Let's talk
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 4: about rock and roll to the young people and wearing
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 4: blue jeans, which is what they were prevented from having.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 4: And that's how you created cracks in the old Soviet
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 4: support system. So she was a CIA agent. She was
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 4: a Democrat. She voted for Adlai Stevenson against Eisenhower. But
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 4: she was a virulent anti-communist. And then remember in 63.
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 3: But I want to point out, because if anybody had
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 3: problems with you saying that, all of that is pretty
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 3: well darn documented.
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 4: Yes, it was absolutely the case. And she was proud
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 4: of it, and thankfully she did that. Second, she was
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 4: so good at morphing into whatever she had to be. Obviously,
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 4: you have to be good to be a CIA agent
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 4: and pretend— to be pro-Soviet while you're there in the
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 4: Soviet Union in the satellite countries. She went undercover as
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 4: a playboy bunny and exposed Hugh Hefner and in her
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 4: writings talked about how all the women who achieved bunny
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 4: status had to be checked for sexually transmitted diseases because,
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 4: you know, Hefner wanted to have sex with them. And boy,
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 4: that put chink in his arm because, you know, he
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 4: was out of Chicago at that time. He was every
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 4: male's image of what a virulent man should be. This
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 4: woman was good at what she did. Once she became
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 4: the person who had a lead in effort, Stay out
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 4: of her way.
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 3: You know, she did a whole lot more with the CIA,
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 3: and it is all fascinating as you look at it.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 3: You're right. She was in Europe. They were getting her
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 3: to recruit people against the Soviet Union. But when she
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 3: got back here, the CIA helped her to establish an
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 3: organization called the Independence Research Service. She remained an employee
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 3: of that group well into the 60s. They held a
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 3: big youth festival there. And she wrote about the CIA
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 3: in her 2015 memoirs. And she said, listen, it was
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 3: a necessary evil to get to where I wanted to be.
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 3: They gave me power. They gave me money. And they
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 3: gave me an ability to recruit in Europe and to
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 3: recruit in America. And I would not have been able
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 3: to do that without them. So what she's saying is, Yes,
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 3: some of the work was for the CIA, but all
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 3: of it, I didn't keep my eye off the ball.
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 3: I was constantly thinking about the women's movement.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 4: Yep, and she never had children of her own, but
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 4: she's the stepmom of the actor Christian Bale. because she
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 4: had married his father, David Bell. And boy, there were
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 4: all kinds of men who were dating Gloria Steinem in
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 4: the 70s when she was a jet setter. I mean, globally,
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 4: they all wanted Gloria Steinem to be out there with
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 4: them at a restaurant, a party, a gathering, because she
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 4: was such a good looker, very intellectual, and obviously a
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 4: very forceful feminist. So in her passing in 92 years, imagine,
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 4: she went from when Hitler was the Fuhrer, became the Fuhrer,
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 4: that's the year she was born, to now the emergence
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 4: of AI. So there will be lots of tributes to
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 4: Gloria Steinman all throughout the week and into next week.
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 4: But up next, we're going to give you an update
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 4: on that Brooklyn Bridge shooting today of an emotionally disturbed
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 4: person by the NYPD, And more importantly, what's being done
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 4: before the big commemoration next Friday, same time, same place
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 4: next Friday, we'll have our own commemoration of 9-11 taking
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 4: place here at 710WOR. Another emotionally disturbed person with a
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 4: knife in his hand, waving it around, disorderly. Citizens on
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 4: the Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn Bridge called 911. This
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 4: was at 4.30 in the morning before we started our program.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 4: They surrounded him. He charged the police. They shot him.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 4: Multiple shots were fired, shell casings everywhere on the Brooklyn side.
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 4: Manhattan side of the bridge was open. They closed the
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 4: Brooklyn side for a further investigation. But here we go again.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 4: Emotionally disturbed person. We don't know where he was living
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 4: at the time, whether the street or shelter or maybe
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 4: at his own apartment. We'll get more details as the
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 4: day goes on. But there have been a series of
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 4: these situations now. And you know what's going to happen.
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 4: They're going to hang it on the cops. Why did
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 4: you have to shoot him? We should have mental health
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 4: experts out there responding. Well, every one of these mayors,
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 4: from de Blasio to Adams, now Zorin has had a
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 4: chance to do that, and they haven't done it.
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 3: Because it's an idiot idea. That's why. Because they're going
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 3: to end up getting killed. So you won't have the
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 3: person that's now threatening people being killed. You'll have people
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 3: trying to help him being killed. What we need to
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 3: do in this country, and I'll say this over and
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 3: over and over again— For the good of the mentally
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 3: ill person and also for the good of the police
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 3: force and for the good for the citizens who will
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 3: be threatened by this person, we need to be able
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 3: to put people away and get them the help they need.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 3: And we used to be able to do that. That's ended.
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 3: And it was partially society's fault because they overextended and
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 3: they treated people very poorly. We got to do this
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 3: again and do it the right way.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, we just talked about how Gloria Steinem cared
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 4: for her mother in Toledo in a sanitarium because she
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 4: had had a mental breakdown, cared for her.
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, there is a way to do it properly,
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 2: and you are correct.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 4: Now, meantime, as we approach 9-11 and next week, we're
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 4: dedicating a lot of our broadcasting to the lead up
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 4: to the commemoration.
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 2: Julie Menon.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 4: City Council Speaker was surrounded with other council people talking
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 4: how they're going to spend a million dollars to make
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 4: available trips to the 9-11 Museum on the part of
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 4: kids who go to public schools. And I'm saying to myself,
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 4: 25 years. And you now extricate a million dollars from
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 4: a $ 42 billion Department of Education budget in which there's
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 4: nothing in this that says you have to bring the
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 4: children there. Because when I ask my sons, hey, do
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 4: you talk about 9-11 in the schools?
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 2: They've all gone to public schools. No, Dad. Why don't
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 2: they talk about it?
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 4: Well, they don't want to hurt anybody's feelings. So unlike
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 4: our generation that grew up, Larry and I know you, Natalie,
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 4: remember the Pearl? Remember Pearl Harbor? It was driven into us.
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 4: One third of our population was born after 9-11. Most
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 4: of them had no idea about 9-11 or what transpired
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 4: because most of these schools won't even address it.
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 3: We've got to stop placating minorities in our country. Not
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 3: large minorities, but small minorities of people. We have to
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 3: stop placating and making sure that nobody is ever offended.
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 3: It is a bizarre thing and it's just some residue
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 3: from the whole woke movement in our country. Finally, can
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 3: we get rid of that stuff? By the way, with
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 3: Julie Menon, I don't know how to feel about her.
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, when she first came in, it looked like
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 3: she was going to take on Zora Mamdani, and I
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 3: thought the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 2: Did I not warn you?
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 3: And then I thought, wait a second, that's not working
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 3: out the way she said it was going to happen.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 2: I warned you, Larry!
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 3: All right, well, Curtis also said he knows where Jimmy
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 3: Hoffa is buried this morning in the talkback of the morning,
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 3: and winner of the Curtis Sliwa and Larry Menti in
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 3: the morning t-shirt had a message for... Me, for some reason.
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 2: Forget about it, Larry.
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 3: You know Curtis knows where all the bones are buried.
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 4: Remember, underneath the Pulaski Skyway that both of you take
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 4: home the jersey, in that dump there that was run
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 4: by the Genovese, in a 55-gallon drum are the remnants
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 4: of Jimmy Hoffa.
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 3: Let me just see. That's the 57th place I've been
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 3: told he's been buried. And it's Friday, so we're going
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 3: to award the Talkback of the Week a C-Crane Radio.
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 3: He was not very happy about this. This Talkback coming
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 3: up is going to get the C-Crane Radio. You got
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 3: a shirt.

  Speaker 2: Be happy.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 3: He was not very happy about bringing year-round outdoor dining
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 3: to the city.
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 10: Hey, guys, you know, you got these hipsters, these nitwits.
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 10: They'll sit out in anything just to look like they're cool.
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 10: They make me sick.
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
