Highlights of Curtis & Larry · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

0:00
Speaker 1: Well, everything we feared, everything we were told might happen,
0:06
Speaker 1: did happen. Thunderstorms, tornadoes with an s, a couple of tornadoes, flooding,
0:15
Speaker 1: heavy rain. All of it happened yesterday. So what I
0:21
Speaker 1: want to do right away is get to Jeff Maher
0:23
Speaker 1: seven to ten woor Weather Channel meteorologist Curtis, because he
0:28
Speaker 1: warned us of all this yesterday, and I guess we
0:31
Speaker 1: hoped it either wouldn't hit or it wouldn't be as
0:34
Speaker 1: bad as it was, but it was pretty bad. Jeff,
0:37
Speaker 1: thanks for joining us this morning. So tell us the numbers.
0:42
Speaker 1: How bad was it yesterday?
0:44
Speaker 2: Well, it's amazing the rainfall totals because at the airports
0:48
Speaker 2: they were all basically JFK close to corvernache over half
0:52
Speaker 2: inch at LaGuardia and Central Park just under a corvernache.
0:55
Speaker 2: But elsewhere Stanford in Connecticut almost five inches of rain,
0:59
Speaker 2: Montclair and Jery over three and a half inches of rain,
1:01
Speaker 2: and Terrytown picked up four point seven nine inches of rain.
1:05
Speaker 2: So it was quite the delusion several spots yesterday. And
1:08
Speaker 2: then we had damaging winds as well, possibly even some
1:11
Speaker 2: tornado damage. Well, the National Weather Circle'll send a team
1:14
Speaker 2: up to Westchester, and they're gonna examine where we had
1:16
Speaker 2: some damage yesterday, possibly related to either straight line winds
1:20
Speaker 2: or maybe even a tornado.
1:21
Speaker 3: Well, Jeff, we saw the funnel clouds in New Jersey,
1:25
Speaker 3: our own produce Natalie and not live that far away.
1:29
Speaker 3: I thought Natalie was clicking a heels like Dorothy and
1:32
Speaker 3: the Wizard of Oz, saying take me back to Staten Island,
1:35
Speaker 3: Take me back to Staten Island. Those were twisters. Those
1:39
Speaker 3: would tornadoes, Jeff. We don't ever get those.
1:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, rarely do we. But yesterday that was quite the
1:47
Speaker 2: front that moved through, that warm front, and as a result,
1:50
Speaker 2: we had all kinds of havoc because certainly developing into
1:52
Speaker 2: the afternoon and lasting into the early evening hour, several
1:55
Speaker 2: tornado warnings, several flash flood warnings. Now, fortunately today just
1:59
Speaker 2: some isolated showers and thunderstorm. Says, this cold front finally
2:02
Speaker 2: moves through. I don't think we'll have too much to
2:03
Speaker 2: worry about, just a slight risk for severe thunderstorm or
2:06
Speaker 2: too across eastern parts of Long Island as we headed
2:08
Speaker 2: the afternoon. But once we get past that, we're in
2:11
Speaker 2: the all clear starting tonight and right on through a weekend.
2:13
Speaker 2: We'll actually have a beautiful stretch weather coming up with
2:15
Speaker 2: sunshine starting tomorrow and right on through the weekend with
2:17
Speaker 2: highs and the low eighties. But it was a different
2:19
Speaker 2: story yesterday unfortunately.
2:20
Speaker 1: Yeah, we all saw the pictures yesterday the Bronx River
2:23
Speaker 1: Express where the Bronx River Drive was amazing. The water
2:28
Speaker 1: was all the way up to the overpass, several feet
2:32
Speaker 1: of water, and I can understand how that happened. First
2:35
Speaker 1: of all, we just had a rainfall, so the roads
2:38
Speaker 1: were wet and not the roads, but at least the
2:40
Speaker 1: ground was wet. Then we also had four to five
2:44
Speaker 1: inches of rain in a short amount of time. Talk
2:47
Speaker 1: about the damage that that can do.
2:50
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you get's thunderstorms that can produce one to
2:52
Speaker 2: two inches of rainfall per hour. Obviously, that's going to
2:55
Speaker 2: cause some major flooding concerns and that's unfortunately what we
2:58
Speaker 2: dealt with yesterday. And you know that doesn't have have
3:01
Speaker 2: anywhere to go if especially you know, we're not only
3:04
Speaker 2: talking about the payment the roads obviously, but even on
3:06
Speaker 2: some of the grassy sources that ground saturated due to
3:09
Speaker 2: all that heavy rain we had last Saturday. So you're right,
3:12
Speaker 2: you know, this is on top of that, and the
3:13
Speaker 2: end result was a lot of flooding and it really
3:16
Speaker 2: caused some problems yesterday travel wise.
3:18
Speaker 3: So I'm on the upper west side and I was
3:21
Speaker 3: watching the dark communist clouds come towards me from the
3:25
Speaker 3: Hudson River. It seemed to be coming over from New Jersey.
3:28
Speaker 3: You know, I'll call that tornado alley for descriptive purposes.
3:32
Speaker 3: So there was no tornado, but I got day loged
3:37
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes when it came down. It came down, and
3:41
Speaker 3: then it stopped. But I mean buckets, Well, what causes
3:46
Speaker 3: just a immediate like almost like a waterfall effect like
3:49
Speaker 3: it was the falls and patents in New Jersey, right,
3:52
Speaker 3: boom fifteen straight minutes and then nothing. And this seems
3:55
Speaker 3: to be now more more common than the exception to
4:00
Speaker 3: the rule.
4:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, some of these rain events have been crazy lately.
4:03
Speaker 2: And you're right, Curtis, it was just a dead luge
4:06
Speaker 2: yesterday when you found yourself under some of those thunderstorms.
4:09
Speaker 2: Due to that warm front, a lot of lyft and
4:10
Speaker 2: we had a lot of moisture to work with, and
4:12
Speaker 2: that resulted in heavy downpours As we were saying maybe
4:15
Speaker 2: an inch or two per hour in some spots, and boy,
4:18
Speaker 2: you get those kind of rainfall totals in a short
4:20
Speaker 2: amount of time. We're talking we're from three to almost
4:22
Speaker 2: five inches, and that really is too much as far
4:26
Speaker 2: as you know, what we can handle. And then we
4:28
Speaker 2: saw it. We've seen it twice here in the last
4:30
Speaker 2: few days, Saturday and again yesterday and now fortunately we
4:33
Speaker 2: mentioned just some isolated thunderstorms today. But then high pressure
4:36
Speaker 2: builds in and that's going to result in a stretch
4:37
Speaker 2: of dry weather starting tonight all the way through Sunday
4:40
Speaker 2: before we introduced a few showers early next week on
4:42
Speaker 2: Monday and Tuesday.
4:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, all anybody cares about is the weekend. So what
4:45
Speaker 1: is the weekend going to be like? Exactly?
4:48
Speaker 2: Oh, beautiful, sunny, low eighties for highs and our low
4:50
Speaker 2: temperatures down into the mid sixties. So, boy, I tell
4:53
Speaker 2: you what if you if you haven't made plans suspensive
4:56
Speaker 2: time out about this week, and you may want to
4:57
Speaker 2: go ahead and do that because this is going to
4:58
Speaker 2: be one of the nicer weekends so far the summer.
5:01
Speaker 4: Well we deserve it.
5:02
Speaker 1: Jeff maher wl or Weather Channel meteorologists, Thanks a lot.
5:06
Speaker 1: Thanks for the updates, so.
5:07
Speaker 5: We'll thank you, Jeff So Natalie.
5:11
Speaker 3: When I saw those pictures of those two funnel clouds
5:15
Speaker 3: tornadoes in New Jersey, it reminded me of when I
5:20
Speaker 3: was young, visiting with my relatives on my dad's side,
5:23
Speaker 3: the Polish Shide. They had a farm out in Lockport,
5:26
Speaker 3: between Joliet and Chicago, and they had those storm shelters,
5:31
Speaker 3: those tornado shelters because when those twisters come, man, you
5:34
Speaker 3: gotta go underground. Man, They'll take you up in in
5:38
Speaker 3: the funnel.
5:39
Speaker 6: You were close, yeah, you know, I'm in Morris County.
5:42
Speaker 6: So I would say about two five ish, you know,
5:46
Speaker 6: all the phones went off in the house, the TV
5:49
Speaker 6: went off saying, you know, seek shelter, go into a basement.
5:54
Speaker 5: And then you know, we had the hyper local news on.
5:57
Speaker 4: So they were, you.
5:58
Speaker 6: Know, plotting street by street basically where they saw things,
6:02
Speaker 6: where they thought there was potential. It was in Preseipony. Well,
6:06
Speaker 6: I was closer to Presipite. It was about, you know,
6:08
Speaker 6: fifteen minutes from our house. And it was funny because
6:11
Speaker 6: where I was, and I'm sure a lot of people
6:13
Speaker 6: witnessed the same thing.
6:15
Speaker 2: We didn't.
6:15
Speaker 6: We had rain, we had winds, but it wasn't anything crazy,
6:18
Speaker 6: but there was something about how it felt like the
6:22
Speaker 6: atmosphere felt like at any second, if you put a
6:25
Speaker 6: match to it, it would explode, you know what I mean.
6:27
Speaker 6: It had that feeling. You could feel it in your
6:30
Speaker 6: your body.
6:31
Speaker 1: So when you got the warnings and it said, you know,
6:33
Speaker 1: seek shelter, go in the basement.
6:35
Speaker 5: Did you you know I've done it in the past.
6:37
Speaker 6: But I was right by the basement door, so I
6:40
Speaker 6: stood by the basement, you know, to waiting and correct
6:44
Speaker 6: girlfriend of mine texted me because she knew it was
6:46
Speaker 6: by it by me, and she said, I just heard
6:49
Speaker 6: somebody said to make sure you keep your your shoes on,
6:52
Speaker 6: and I don't fit to laugh put a bike helmet on.
6:56
Speaker 6: I said, well, I'm not putting the bike helmet on,
6:59
Speaker 6: but I understand what you're saying. But you know what,
7:03
Speaker 6: I will put my shoes on. That kind of makes sense.
7:06
Speaker 6: But what I did do is I went around the
7:08
Speaker 6: house and I took all the drapes and I closed
7:10
Speaker 6: them because I have heard if anything, you know, hit
7:13
Speaker 6: your window, at least the drapes will stop glass from
7:16
Speaker 6: shattering all into the house.
7:18
Speaker 1: So you wrapped yourself in drapes. But you thought the
7:21
Speaker 1: bike helmet was ridiculous.
7:22
Speaker 4: Well, I knew it's not ridiculous.
7:24
Speaker 5: I just knew I would look ridiculous to myself, I guess.
7:28
Speaker 3: But you never had that experience before in you colic
7:32
Speaker 3: New Jersey, where you live with the beavers, with the bear,
7:37
Speaker 3: with the deer.
7:38
Speaker 4: That's not true.
7:39
Speaker 6: A couple of summers ago we had this wherein I
7:42
Speaker 6: actually did go into my basement several times because but
7:47
Speaker 6: my entire life living in the New York Tri state area,
7:51
Speaker 6: I never remember getting a tornado warning.
7:53
Speaker 5: Now I've probably gone through like five of them.
7:55
Speaker 3: I think there's going to have to be a lot
7:57
Speaker 3: more PSAs now because it's the expanded time of the
8:02
Speaker 3: severe hot weather, which is followed by what Larry predicted,
8:07
Speaker 3: the extreme flooding, you know, the extreme downpours. They do
8:12
Speaker 3: this all throughout the Midwest. You know Tornado Alley. They've
8:15
Speaker 3: had programs, you know, tornado chases, you know, hurricane chases,
8:19
Speaker 3: storm chanses. We think those people are nuts because they
8:23
Speaker 3: try to get into the eye of the storm. But
8:25
Speaker 3: everyone who lives out there, we've seen the destruction of
8:27
Speaker 3: when they really get going.
8:29
Speaker 5: The twisters.
8:30
Speaker 3: Now, I gotta believe they knock down a lot of
8:32
Speaker 3: power lines and knocked down a lot of trees.
8:35
Speaker 4: I will say this.
8:36
Speaker 1: You know, everybody thinks that hurricanes just happen or tornadoes
8:41
Speaker 1: just happened in Tornado Alleys and in flat Land in Iowa.
8:45
Speaker 1: In covering the news for so long in so many
8:47
Speaker 1: different areas, there's many times when I'm sent out to
8:50
Speaker 1: the suburbs and a place that never got a tornado before.
8:54
Speaker 4: It can happen.
8:55
Speaker 1: Anywhere, very literally anywhere, and it can do a hell
9:01
Speaker 1: of a lot of damage. Even if it's a minor,
9:04
Speaker 1: minor tornado. It can go down a street and take
9:07
Speaker 1: out houses. So it's it's no fooling around. And when
9:11
Speaker 1: there's a bad thunderstorm and then they tell you there's
9:13
Speaker 1: a tornado.
9:14
Speaker 4: Warning, take it extremely.
9:16
Speaker 3: Serious, real quick, real quick. I learned a new term.
9:20
Speaker 3: Although both of you looked at me when we were
9:22
Speaker 3: doing our show prep, like, boy, you're a funny duddy, Curtis,
9:26
Speaker 3: tornatic threat. I thought that was like shark nod. I'm
9:30
Speaker 3: watching eyewitness news on my iPhone, you know, and the guys,
9:33
Speaker 3: there's a tornatic thread out there. Tournamo, what what the
9:36
Speaker 3: hell is a tornadic thread? And you looked at me like,
9:38
Speaker 3: where have you.
9:39
Speaker 1: Been, Curtis, you actually texted it out. Yes, and this
9:42
Speaker 1: is a new term, and I'm looking at it goes.
9:45
Speaker 1: Does he know how many times I've said tornatic activity
9:48
Speaker 1: in my lifetime?
9:50
Speaker 5: I want the news then, so I must be a
9:51
Speaker 5: still nod.
9:52
Speaker 3: But I gotta tell you, you know, we we used
9:55
Speaker 3: to have bombshelters all over the city, you know, when
9:57
Speaker 3: we were in the cold one in the sixties. We
9:59
Speaker 3: had thou now got two fifty left and they use
10:02
Speaker 3: for storage.
10:04
Speaker 5: We may have to start getting.
10:05
Speaker 3: People to build their own tornado and storm shelters.
10:10
Speaker 1: At this rate, I hope not. I listen these It's
10:13
Speaker 1: still unusual for it to happen in this area and
10:16
Speaker 1: to happen in know a lot of areas it does
10:18
Speaker 1: happen at. But I'll tell you what it can happen anywhere.
10:21
Speaker 5: Listen.
10:22
Speaker 1: This is a shared experience. Everybody went through something in
10:26
Speaker 1: this storm, so we'd love to hear from you.
10:28
Speaker 7: Go one.
10:28
Speaker 5: As the conversation continues.
10:31
Speaker 4: Curtis Leewa and Larry Mantez wo.
10:35
Speaker 1: R So, the Governor of New Jersey, Mikey Cheryl is
10:38
Speaker 1: getting a lot of credit if you watch CNN and
10:42
Speaker 1: read some of the newspapers and in the New York Times,
10:45
Speaker 1: she's getting a lot of credit for uncovering this glaring
10:50
Speaker 1: error in their voting system where you could go to
10:53
Speaker 1: the Motor Vehicle Commission and when you go there, they
10:57
Speaker 1: ask you if you want to vote, and they take
10:59
Speaker 1: your information, and that a lot of people that were
11:01
Speaker 1: in the country illegally then were able to get driver's
11:06
Speaker 1: license automatically because of some flawed software. Six thousand, six
11:11
Speaker 1: hundred people in the country illegally were able to obtain
11:16
Speaker 1: the ability to vote just from getting a driver's license,
11:19
Speaker 1: and a little bit over four hundred actually voted. So
11:23
Speaker 1: she had this news conference, it got national attention. It's
11:28
Speaker 1: all blowney, all of it. She also blamed the past administration. Well,
11:35
Speaker 1: listen to this. This was actually discovered in twenty twenty
11:40
Speaker 1: four by the Murphy administration, so she didn't have to
11:45
Speaker 1: do any digging. When when she says we became aware
11:49
Speaker 1: of this, why weren't you aware of this before? She's
11:54
Speaker 1: acting like she discovered this problem. No, no, no, the
11:59
Speaker 1: Murphy the administration discovered this problem and fixed it. So
12:05
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Why would you now get up
12:09
Speaker 1: and say this. It's obvious why she's doing it. But
12:12
Speaker 1: let me just play a couple of bites from her
12:15
Speaker 1: so you can roll your eyes.
12:16
Speaker 8: We don't deflect, deny, or exploit problems for our own game.
12:21
Speaker 5: We find them and we fix them.
12:24
Speaker 1: Well, Governor Murphy did, and you were a congresswoman, a
12:28
Speaker 1: Democratic congressman at the time. I didn't hear anything from
12:32
Speaker 1: you at all about voting problems, about illegals voting. All
12:37
Speaker 1: of a sudden, she's getting out in front of this.
12:39
Speaker 1: Couldn't have anything to do with the fact that the
12:43
Speaker 1: Trump administration is now going around the country and investigating
12:49
Speaker 1: to find out if illegals are on the rolls. Could
12:53
Speaker 1: it have anything to do with the Save Act and
12:57
Speaker 1: proof that we really don't need the Save Act because
12:59
Speaker 1: we have crusade like Mikey Cheryl out there protecting your rights.
13:06
Speaker 1: This was all a farce yesterday. This was not Mikey
13:11
Speaker 1: Cheryl standing up for the integrity of the elections. This
13:15
Speaker 1: was her covering her you know what, because she doesn't
13:20
Speaker 1: want an investigation in New Jersey.
13:22
Speaker 4: But I'll tell you what.
13:24
Speaker 1: Knowing the information behind this, if I'm with the Trump administration.
13:29
Speaker 1: If I'm with the DOJ, I'd be curious what she
13:32
Speaker 1: wants to hide, why she's doing this, And the next
13:36
Speaker 1: state that should be on their list, Curtis.
13:40
Speaker 3: Is New Jersey, Oh, no doubt, and especially New York State,
13:46
Speaker 3: we have the similar problem. So I understand, you're an
13:49
Speaker 3: illegal alien, you're a migrant. You can get a non
13:52
Speaker 3: citizen striver's license at your Department of MOTIVEIRR Jersey has
13:57
Speaker 3: in New York has, and a lot of other states
13:59
Speaker 3: have it. You, as the recipient of this, must check
14:04
Speaker 3: off a box in which you know that to vote
14:08
Speaker 3: as a migrant or illegal alien, you are committing a crime. Now,
14:15
Speaker 3: come on, she's acknowledged what we know. Four hundred voted
14:21
Speaker 3: what we know. That's just a tip of the tailor,
14:25
Speaker 3: iceberg Lettuce because we know that those voting roles are tainted,
14:29
Speaker 3: and she blames it on a software glitch. Well, let's
14:33
Speaker 3: give her the benefit of the doubt. Liarry, if in
14:35
Speaker 3: fact that it's true, Well your merging lists. You have
14:38
Speaker 3: all these legitimate Department of Motive vehicle licensees to drive
14:43
Speaker 3: a New Jersey who can vote, and you're merging them
14:47
Speaker 3: in with the illegals of migrants who can vote, and
14:50
Speaker 3: you're expecting to keep separate lists. Now you think it's
14:54
Speaker 3: a problem in New Jersey, it's an even bigger problem
14:58
Speaker 3: in New York. And it has his story here because
15:01
Speaker 3: remember Governor hokel when she was the county clerk of
15:04
Speaker 3: your recounty Democrat, I will never accept registration to drive
15:10
Speaker 3: of any illegal alien. She created national headlines because Elliot Spitzer,
15:14
Speaker 3: the governor at that time, wanted the illegal aliens to
15:17
Speaker 3: be able to drive with a non citizen driving license.
15:20
Speaker 3: She said, I will stop it. You'll have to take
15:23
Speaker 3: me to jail in chains and jackals. Now she's the
15:26
Speaker 3: one who said, uh oh, let's go full speed. So
15:29
Speaker 3: imagine your state has nine million people. We have close
15:33
Speaker 3: twenty million people. Imagine how many more migrants in illegal
15:37
Speaker 3: aliens have that Department of Motive vehicle driver's license for
15:41
Speaker 3: non citizens in which got to check off that box
15:44
Speaker 3: and swear, cross your heart and hope to die that
15:46
Speaker 3: you will not vote because it is a federal crime.
15:50
Speaker 1: I get all of this. It's a big problem. It's
15:52
Speaker 1: got to be investigated across the country. It's currently by
15:55
Speaker 1: the way, it's currently being investigated across the country. They
15:58
Speaker 1: just had a big investigation Michigan. I get it. I
16:02
Speaker 1: get all of that. I think the biggest, bigger story
16:05
Speaker 1: here is why why is she doing this? Because we
16:09
Speaker 1: found out by some great reporting from a lot of
16:12
Speaker 1: organizations that Murphy found this problem.
16:15
Speaker 4: And corrected it. This wasn't a problem.
16:19
Speaker 1: She was talking about a problem that no longer existed.
16:23
Speaker 1: She didn't find anything. This was found and corrected by
16:28
Speaker 1: Murphy in twenty twenty four, two years ago.
16:32
Speaker 3: So why, well, why is she His fault is he
16:36
Speaker 3: kept it hush hush much much.
16:38
Speaker 5: He never let it be known that this was a click.
16:41
Speaker 3: Did she say that? No, No, she found it. You know,
16:45
Speaker 3: as a reporter, a gumshoe reporter. There was somebody out
16:48
Speaker 3: there who was going to break this and she would
16:51
Speaker 3: have to be responding after the fact. So she wanted
16:55
Speaker 3: to come out and be able to say, see, see,
16:59
Speaker 3: I'm vetting it out up.
17:00
Speaker 5: No need fetch to come into New Jersey.
17:02
Speaker 3: She's not fitting it out, No need Department of Judgice, Hey,
17:05
Speaker 3: Cash Bettel, keep your jets.
17:08
Speaker 2: You know.
17:08
Speaker 5: Cool there in Washington, DC.
17:10
Speaker 3: And now we have a new National Security Director that
17:13
Speaker 3: has replaced Tulsea, Gabrick Clayton, you know, the former US
17:16
Speaker 3: Attorney Southern District.
17:17
Speaker 5: He would come in.
17:19
Speaker 3: So no, no, no, no, we've edited out ourselves.
17:22
Speaker 4: She's made it worse. She didn't make it better. Did
17:25
Speaker 4: she think none of this was gonna be reported? Does
17:28
Speaker 4: she think nobody was gonna find out? It's gonna be worse.
17:31
Speaker 1: They're gonna come down on her so hard now because
17:34
Speaker 1: the first thing you think to yourself is why did
17:37
Speaker 1: she do this?
17:37
Speaker 4: This is what does she have to hide?
17:39
Speaker 2: Right?
17:39
Speaker 3: But this is another reason to have the Save Act,
17:42
Speaker 3: to be able to have each person come in with
17:45
Speaker 3: a government ID with their picture on it. We talked
17:49
Speaker 3: about olive garden. Now you have to have a valid
17:55
Speaker 3: form of ID with your picture on it government in
17:58
Speaker 3: order to qualify for what is that? All the macaroni
18:02
Speaker 3: you can eat, all the spaghetti you can eat.
18:04
Speaker 1: The aposta, the the never ending pasta ball. I think
18:07
Speaker 1: it's what they call it.
18:08
Speaker 3: Because people are abusing that the way they abuse having
18:13
Speaker 3: the Netflix pass and they let other people use it.
18:15
Speaker 5: I know, Steve, it's human nature and all we have
18:18
Speaker 5: to do.
18:18
Speaker 3: Out of all the areas in New Jersey, the one
18:21
Speaker 3: area I've spent the most time at Pattison, New Jersey.
18:24
Speaker 3: The Democrats cheat against one another because the Republican doesn't
18:28
Speaker 3: have a chance. So in their primaries they do all
18:31
Speaker 3: of this, and they harvest ballads and they break rules
18:34
Speaker 3: and many have gone to jail. Atlantic City, it's the
18:36
Speaker 3: classic example. But Ersey, it's a systemic, systemic so clean
18:43
Speaker 3: the rolls up. There are dead people there, There are
18:45
Speaker 3: people on the rolls who should not be there. There
18:47
Speaker 3: are people who have moved away. What is wrong with
18:51
Speaker 3: keeping your roles current and updates?
18:55
Speaker 4: Absolutely? Absolutely the same Act.
18:56
Speaker 1: By the way, they figured out we can talk about
18:58
Speaker 1: this tomorrow, but they figured out a way to go
19:00
Speaker 1: to say Act through and it's gonna They just had
19:02
Speaker 1: a preliminary vote in the House. It's going to make
19:04
Speaker 1: it through the House. And they figured out a way
19:06
Speaker 1: to put this in a funding bill so it can
19:08
Speaker 1: be voted on and get through. So I think it's
19:10
Speaker 1: going to get through the Senate too, and that's going
19:12
Speaker 1: to be very important. By the way, I rented bikes
19:14
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago and I had to show
19:16
Speaker 1: an idea. As a matter of fact, I had to
19:17
Speaker 1: leave my license with them. So you have to show
19:20
Speaker 1: ID for everything.
19:22
Speaker 3: I can't even get into this building with that.
19:25
Speaker 1: Curtis, you got to show you five D. So it's
19:28
Speaker 1: so it's stupid, it's silly. I think the bigger story
19:31
Speaker 1: is two things. Why she did this, Because she's trying
19:34
Speaker 1: to keep people away, saying I got this handled. Nothing
19:37
Speaker 1: to see here, I got it all covered, don't worry
19:40
Speaker 1: about it, which means everybody's gonna go look at New
19:42
Speaker 1: Jersey right now. But why the Democrats are fighting so
19:47
Speaker 1: hard against something that eighty percent of the people in
19:50
Speaker 1: this country won.
19:51
Speaker 5: Well, because the harvesting votes absolutely.
19:54
Speaker 3: And I'm sure when they approach somebody who is illegal
19:59
Speaker 3: and they say, you know you should be voting, well,
20:01
Speaker 3: you know, I checked off a box and it says
20:03
Speaker 3: that it's a federal crime. Ah, they never enforced that,
20:06
Speaker 3: and that is true. That's the other problem. It's almost
20:09
Speaker 3: never enforced so that the guy that is being talked to,
20:13
Speaker 3: the illegal, the migrant, doesn't have.
20:15
Speaker 5: Like a caseload.
20:16
Speaker 3: Hey, I know a lot of guys you know who
20:18
Speaker 3: got jammed up, winded up in Delaney Hall and the
20:21
Speaker 3: next thing you know, they were being deported to their
20:23
Speaker 3: country of origin.
20:25
Speaker 5: It's just not enough cases it we know goes on.
20:28
Speaker 5: We absolutely, it's just too easy to do.
20:31
Speaker 3: Is it the mass majority of those who have a
20:34
Speaker 3: non citizen driver's license? Of course not, but it doesn't
20:37
Speaker 3: have to be the entire load of those licenses.
20:41
Speaker 4: But can it sway an election?
20:42
Speaker 3: Absolutely, We've seen some really close elections.
20:45
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, And I'm sure it's swayed many elections across
20:49
Speaker 1: the country. And that's why Donald Trump wants this so badly.
20:52
Speaker 1: Understand what's going on. You have one party that wants
20:57
Speaker 1: rules and wants it all to be fair in square.
21:00
Speaker 1: You have another party that does not want those rules
21:03
Speaker 1: because it benefits them, and so all the other things
21:06
Speaker 1: they claim about disenfranchising women are ridiculous. The Save Act
21:13
Speaker 1: should be passed because it's good for America, not just
21:16
Speaker 1: good for one party. Because it's good for America.
21:18
Speaker 3: What did Vince Lombardy say, The only thing that counts
21:22
Speaker 3: is winning. You remember that, and we're going to extrapolate
21:26
Speaker 3: that up Next to the New York Giants.
21:29
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly, because of the crazy one Scotta bou the
21:33
Speaker 1: running back who always gets hurt because he's a.
21:35
Speaker 3: Nut, Curtis Leewa and Larry Minty in the morning after.
21:39
Speaker 1: We love the show since I made the switch over
21:42
Speaker 1: from You Know Who.
21:43
Speaker 3: On seven ten WR now it's sevent ten Wars Beat
21:50
Speaker 3: on the Street with Natalie Migliori. Well, Natalie, we're down
21:56
Speaker 3: in the streets, not as sweltering as normal.
21:59
Speaker 5: No, And what have you brought up to the suite
22:02
Speaker 5: for us today?
22:03
Speaker 6: Well?
22:03
Speaker 8: What have I brought up to the streets from the
22:06
Speaker 8: streets for the excuse me?
22:09
Speaker 5: Are you talking about?
22:09
Speaker 8: If I need AI? And that's what we're going to
22:12
Speaker 8: be talking about today. Artificial intelligence. It's all the rage
22:16
Speaker 8: these days. Should we be using it, afraid of it
22:20
Speaker 8: or maybe a little bit of both. A survey from
22:22
Speaker 8: Gallop shows more than half fifty two percent of US
22:27
Speaker 8: employees say they use AI at least a few times
22:32
Speaker 8: a year, if not regularly. So what are people using
22:37
Speaker 8: it for?
22:38
Speaker 1: Mainly just like I would use for Google, just like
22:41
Speaker 1: searching things kind of gives a generalized summary.
22:45
Speaker 9: I've relied mostly on Google, Yahoo and other platforms that
22:49
Speaker 9: I've worked with in the.
22:50
Speaker 7: Pastor for work obviously to talk to just run ideas
22:55
Speaker 7: by a personal lifetime. I think there's ways that you
22:57
Speaker 7: can like do effective prompting just the way of things
23:00
Speaker 7: that you have to talk to. My English is not
23:02
Speaker 7: that good.
23:03
Speaker 5: I'm trying to do trunk. We need chat gipt, Yeah,
23:06
Speaker 5: I can't use it.
23:07
Speaker 1: Like for Jim and I are chat ChiPT for this
23:09
Speaker 1: reason also to write my feelings.
23:11
Speaker 7: And it's gonna explain in five ten seconds on.
23:15
Speaker 3: The home loan a checking I heard that woman chime in,
23:18
Speaker 3: we need chat GBT, right, that's you, that's me. Let
23:21
Speaker 3: me tell you something. Chat gbt went rogue and hacked
23:25
Speaker 3: into another company and they acknowledged they couldn't control this
23:29
Speaker 3: beach of an AI machine. We're gonna talk about that
23:34
Speaker 3: one later. Shame on you, Shame on you.
23:36
Speaker 5: Shame on me.
23:37
Speaker 8: That's how we used the Google Translate. We could have
23:40
Speaker 8: used Google Translate. Chat GPT was saying he uses it
23:43
Speaker 8: for his translation issues, you know.
23:45
Speaker 5: So I just was making it with.
23:46
Speaker 3: That help in trying to have people figure out sometimes
23:49
Speaker 3: what the hell I'm talking about.
23:51
Speaker 8: With Yeah, yeah, me too, and planted chip in my
23:55
Speaker 8: brain to figure out what you're talking about sometimes. But anyway,
23:58
Speaker 8: the survey found that same survey from Gallup found forty
24:01
Speaker 8: seven percent of companies already use AI tools. Not at
24:05
Speaker 8: iHeart we're guaranteed human but saying it helps improve productivity
24:09
Speaker 8: and efficiency, so our people concerned AI will take their jobs.
24:16
Speaker 10: I mean, I'm worried about it, just like everyone else,
24:18
Speaker 10: especially for entry level work. I think there's a tipping
24:21
Speaker 10: point where you take away enough work and you take
24:24
Speaker 10: away the ability to enter industries that can only last
24:27
Speaker 10: for so long and profit certain people for so long.
24:30
Speaker 7: I think it depends on what your job function is.
24:33
Speaker 7: You know, it's like the technological evolution of the Internet
24:37
Speaker 7: or the wheel or anything like that. Like it removes
24:39
Speaker 7: jobs for sure, but that doesn't necessarily mean that human
24:42
Speaker 7: capital is out of the picture.
24:44
Speaker 9: I think other jobs will open up. But for the
24:46
Speaker 9: average person, I think they should be somewhat concerned.
24:49
Speaker 8: Now, if they're not concerned about their jobs, maybe they
24:52
Speaker 8: should be concerned about where all the facilities that power
24:56
Speaker 8: AI are being put. Those are those data centers. They're
25:01
Speaker 8: buildings filled with computers used to process and relay all
25:04
Speaker 8: that information we ask AI for. New Jersey has proposed
25:09
Speaker 8: new strict regulations, even requiring or wanting to require these
25:14
Speaker 8: centers to pay their own electric bills because of how
25:16
Speaker 8: much electricity they use, and New York has imposed the
25:20
Speaker 8: first ever statewide pause on building these new centers.
25:27
Speaker 10: It's obviously going to continue to be a thing. It's
25:29
Speaker 10: also complicated and where they're putting these data centers, and
25:33
Speaker 10: how they're getting the money to do it, and who
25:36
Speaker 10: they're displacing with them or creating environmental issues for so,
25:40
Speaker 10: I think it's it's something we should be a lot
25:42
Speaker 10: more mindful of and aware of as it's happening.
25:44
Speaker 7: And I think there's renewable energy sources that can be
25:47
Speaker 7: powering these data centers.
25:48
Speaker 9: But I read a story in Georgia what people they're
25:52
Speaker 9: losing their houses due to eminent domain because Georgia power
25:55
Speaker 9: and light has to run more, you know, electric lines. Said,
25:58
Speaker 9: see people lose their homes, people paying more for electric
26:02
Speaker 9: and grease. The number of data centers is really out
26:05
Speaker 9: of control.
26:05
Speaker 5: No, my god.
26:07
Speaker 3: The intellectual capacity of these people in the streets today,
26:10
Speaker 3: I know is like they qualified for PBS.
26:13
Speaker 5: Where did you find these people?
26:14
Speaker 4: I know, I got so lucky to do with the PBS.
26:16
Speaker 5: You never know.
26:18
Speaker 8: Look the story out of Georgia. A local town voted
26:23
Speaker 8: in favor of running these lines through the town and
26:27
Speaker 8: it puts about one hundred and sixty thousand residents at
26:30
Speaker 8: risk whether what they're going to do with their properties,
26:34
Speaker 8: if they're going to be allowed to stay or not
26:36
Speaker 8: because of all of this AI stuff. So only fourteen
26:39
Speaker 8: percent of Americans tell Reuters they're comfortable with data centers.
26:43
Speaker 8: So that's not a big number. Fourteen percent. And the
26:46
Speaker 8: people who barely use AI or spare sparingly or use
26:53
Speaker 8: it sparingly, excuse me while I am tongue tied today, Curtis,
26:56
Speaker 8: have simple reasons for why.
26:58
Speaker 10: I'm just so fashion well, because we're already seeing a
27:01
Speaker 10: lot of studies about how people become very dependent on
27:03
Speaker 10: it and lose their ability to do critical thinking. And
27:06
Speaker 10: I don't want that to happen to me.
27:08
Speaker 8: Yeah, and everybody this morning is really using their critical thinking.
27:12
Speaker 5: I gotta tell you, Curtis.
27:13
Speaker 4: But you said it was surprising.
27:15
Speaker 3: AAI this morning in the streets, actual intelligence from human beings.
27:20
Speaker 1: Wait a second, Wait a second, Were they real people?
27:24
Speaker 4: Why did you use AI?
27:26
Speaker 8: I was thinking about that this morning. I was like,
27:28
Speaker 8: what's going to stop people from knowing? No, they'll tell
27:32
Speaker 8: you I was out there. They you go find them.
27:35
Speaker 8: They know I was out there with them on the street.
27:37
Speaker 5: It's funny.
27:38
Speaker 8: I was thinking that too. How it's what's stopping somebody
27:41
Speaker 8: from just putting in telling AI generate, because that's what
27:44
Speaker 8: my fiance does. He'll tell AI put this person's head
27:48
Speaker 8: on this picture and make it. They do it in
27:50
Speaker 8: the group chat with their friends. They think it's hysterical,
27:53
Speaker 8: and I just I.
27:54
Speaker 5: Don't even know how to.
27:55
Speaker 4: I don't even know how to do that.
27:56
Speaker 8: I gotta like, I gotta train myself on to I
27:59
Speaker 8: prompt right from and he doesn't, and it comes out
28:01
Speaker 8: and they all laugh like they make these little things
28:03
Speaker 8: and people know how to do it, and which is
28:06
Speaker 8: funny because he works with his hands, so I'm always like,
28:08
Speaker 8: what do you know? And that's how he spends his
28:11
Speaker 8: time instead of being on a computer.
28:13
Speaker 5: He tells AI to generate.
28:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's amazing. That's Nobody should be fighting this.
28:19
Speaker 1: Nobody should be fighting this. The centers I get, but
28:21
Speaker 1: nobody should because AI is coming. It doesn't matter, it
28:24
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what you say.
28:25
Speaker 8: The question, though, becomes, then where do you store that
28:28
Speaker 8: all that information?
28:29
Speaker 2: Right?
28:29
Speaker 4: That is exactly the exactly But we have space, we
28:33
Speaker 4: have space for that.
28:34
Speaker 5: We don't have to put it.
28:35
Speaker 4: We don't have to make people lose their homes anyway.
28:37
Speaker 5: Stage that are everywhere in America nowadays, you
