Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We will be getting to the great meteorologist Ray Stajic
- 0:03Speaker 1: in about two minutes, so he can give an extended
- 0:06Speaker 1: forecast for what you can expect. But most importantly, right
- 0:10Speaker 1: now it is September 25th. That is 925 Dolly Parton Day.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Nine to five, Dolly Parton Day is being celebrated across
- 0:33Speaker 1: the country. You are encouraged to wear pink and rhinestones,
- 0:38Speaker 1: which Curtis is doing right now. Thank you for celebrating.
- 0:41Speaker 2: There ain't no damn way I'm wearing pink and rhinestones.
- 0:45Speaker 3: Why not?
- 0:45Speaker 2: Three snaps up. I mean, you know, what, do you
- 0:48Speaker 2: think I'm going to be a drag queen today dressed
- 0:50Speaker 2: as Dolly Parton?
- 0:51Speaker 4: Oh, come on.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Maybe put two soccer balls under your shirt.
- 0:54Speaker 2: Oh, jeez.
- 0:57Speaker 5: We just took the nicest thing and just threw it
- 1:00Speaker 5: down the gutter.
- 1:01Speaker 1: That's not the gutter.
- 1:02Speaker 2: She was blessed. Are you kidding me?
- 1:05Speaker 6: Right.
- 1:05Speaker 2: I'm not going to be looking like Christine Noem's husband.
- 1:08Speaker 2: You remember him with the false memory glands. Dolly, I'm sorry.
- 1:14Speaker 7: What a freak.
- 1:15Speaker 2: But anyway. Now he'll look okay today.
- 1:18Speaker 1: He'll be celebrating.
- 1:20Speaker 2: The point is, it is a great day, celebration. I
- 1:23Speaker 2: wonder if, although her extended family and all of her
- 1:26Speaker 2: financial advisors are going to be celebrating because they seem
- 1:29Speaker 2: to be at war already.
- 1:32Speaker 1: They are at war. But let's put that to the
- 1:34Speaker 1: side for a second and just celebrate the life of
- 1:37Speaker 1: Dolly Parton like they're doing across the country. In Nashville,
- 1:40Speaker 1: they're making the lights pink. They're putting up giant posters.
- 1:43Speaker 1: In New Orleans, they're doing the same thing. In Manhattan,
- 1:48Speaker 1: what they are doing, they called it Dolly Parton Day.
- 1:50Speaker 1: The borough president came out, and it's officially Dolly Parton Day.
- 1:53Speaker 1: And he is encouraging people, and this is really a
- 1:56Speaker 1: good idea. If you can't really go out and do anything,
- 1:58Speaker 1: if you're not going to wear rhinestones today or anything
- 2:01Speaker 1: like that, just take a moment to either donate a
- 2:04Speaker 1: book or donate some money. to Imagination Library. You can
- 2:09Speaker 1: find the site online. And that's a really nice way
- 2:14Speaker 1: to honor her legacy. In Staten Island, what are they
- 2:17Speaker 1: doing in Staten Island?
- 2:18Speaker 5: Oh, gosh, there's an organization called Musicians on Call. And
- 2:22Speaker 5: they're going to hospitals all over, including Staten Island University Hospital,
- 2:26Speaker 5: to perform for, you know, patients in the hospital.
- 2:29Speaker 2: It is wonderful. Love that. It makes me almost want
- 2:33Speaker 2: to dress up in drag like Dolly Parton today with
- 2:36Speaker 2: pink and rhinestones. I love it.
- 2:38Speaker 3: 925.
- 2:38Speaker 5: To tell you the truth, today is my anniversary.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Oh, happy anniversary.
- 2:42Speaker 5: Thank you. So, you know, I've celebrated for many years.
- 2:45Speaker 5: I never thought of 925 on September 25th. It never
- 2:50Speaker 5: even occurred to me.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Which anniversary is it? Is it an important one?
- 2:53Speaker 5: It's 27.
- 2:54Speaker 2: Oh, coming up on 30.
- 2:55Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:56Speaker 2: That's pretty damn good, I think. All my marriages combined,
- 3:01Speaker 2: I don't think, equals that. Oh, wow. What was your longest?
- 3:07Speaker 2: They end up, you know, seven-year itch, but I never itch.
- 3:11Speaker 2: And then I would say it's like within 10, 11 years. 10,
- 3:13Speaker 2: 11 years? And then all of a sudden goes south.
- 3:17Speaker 2: But not this one. This is the keeper with Nancy.
- 3:19Speaker 2: But meantime, speaking of Nancy. Wait a second.
- 3:21Speaker 1: One more last question.
- 3:22Speaker 6: Yes.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Most importantly in your relationships, what was the longest on-air relationship?
- 3:27Speaker 2: Well, that was with Lisa in the morning when I
- 3:29Speaker 2: did Angels in the Morning at WABC. So that was
- 3:32Speaker 2: three years until we both got fired together. Three years.
- 3:36Speaker 5: How romantic.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Oh, no, that led to the demise of our relationship.
- 3:40Speaker 2: Talk radio will do that. That's why I had to
- 3:42Speaker 2: consummate and make sure this relationship was solid with me
- 3:46Speaker 2: and Larry after the shit-off that Tom Cuddy did. Meantime, Nancy,
- 3:51Speaker 2: as you know, loves Central Park, and she loves going
- 3:53Speaker 2: to the I Heart Global Citizen Festival every year. because
- 3:57Speaker 2: she lives in Central Park, morning, noon, and night. And
- 3:59Speaker 2: even though we're going to hear from Ray Stajic about
- 4:03Speaker 2: the gloomy forecast in Northeaster, the iHeart Global Citizen Festival
- 4:08Speaker 2: will continue. Bring your ponchos. iHeart is one of the
- 4:11Speaker 2: proud sponsors of what is really a major event. You've
- 4:14Speaker 2: got some of the biggest stars in the business who
- 4:16Speaker 2: will be performing for all the right causes. So if
- 4:19Speaker 2: you were intent on showing up, show up. Just bring
- 4:22Speaker 2: your poncho just in case. So now let's get to
- 4:25Speaker 2: the great Ray Stajic, the best meteorologist. So this is
- 4:28Speaker 2: the forecast you need to listen to. He has been
- 4:32Speaker 2: honing it over the last couple of days. He hemmed
- 4:34Speaker 2: and hawed a couple of times, but now he's got
- 4:36Speaker 2: it down. So, Ray, what can we expect today?
- 4:39Speaker 8: Yeah, from where we were yesterday, gang, we are a
- 4:43Speaker 8: little further west. I think everybody's probably heard that. And
- 4:46Speaker 8: it's more of a slow movement and kind of the
- 4:48Speaker 8: retrograde toward the west. and kind of sitting around for
- 4:52Speaker 8: a little while out over the Western Atlantic that's going
- 4:54Speaker 8: to make this a long duration, I'd go moderate impact event.
- 4:59Speaker 8: That's what the National Weather Service is saying. So we've
- 5:01Speaker 8: kind of ticked up the language a little bit more
- 5:03Speaker 8: from yesterday. Thus, the Weather Service has put out the
- 5:06Speaker 8: wind advisory. That includes all five boroughs, parts of southeastern
- 5:09Speaker 8: New York. You get into Westchester, Rockland County, Long Island.
- 5:14Speaker 8: I'm actually surprised there's not a high wind warning for
- 5:16Speaker 8: eastern Long Island, but We should start seeing the winds
- 5:19Speaker 8: picking up as we head through tonight, tomorrow, and tomorrow night.
- 5:22Speaker 8: Good gusts, 40 to 45, even here in and around
- 5:24Speaker 8: the city. 50, maybe 60 mile per hour winds the
- 5:28Speaker 8: further east you go out onto Long Island. Strongest winds
- 5:31Speaker 8: again as we go through tomorrow and tomorrow night. And
- 5:34Speaker 8: then the rain element. The rain will start picking up
- 5:36Speaker 8: again same time as about the wind as we go
- 5:38Speaker 8: on through the day. Second half of tomorrow into tomorrow night.
- 5:42Speaker 8: Winds could be gusting again, or the rain could be falling.
- 5:45Speaker 8: A moderate to even heavy at times, and we could
- 5:47Speaker 8: See about one to three inches of rain. There'll be
- 5:49Speaker 8: about three to five as you continue to go east
- 5:51Speaker 8: into Suffolk and Nassau and Suffolk County. So there'll be
- 5:55Speaker 8: heavier rain, maybe a problem with some localized flooding. And
- 5:58Speaker 8: then you've got the coastal flooding. It's already occurring. And
- 6:00Speaker 8: I really think it's going to be the beaches that
- 6:03Speaker 8: are continuing to get chewed up right now down along
- 6:05Speaker 8: the Jersey Shore and the South Asian beaches of Long Island,
- 6:08Speaker 8: Jones Beach, for example, Long Beach. These are all areas
- 6:12Speaker 8: that have already seen flooding, already seen significant beach erosion.
- 6:15Speaker 8: I think we're going to get more of that, too. And,
- 6:18Speaker 8: you know, it's not like it's been any tree even
- 6:20Speaker 8: out ahead of this thing. It's not even been developed
- 6:22Speaker 8: so far. We're seeing numerous areas already underwater down to
- 6:26Speaker 8: the Outer Banks, 12's closed. It's basically washed out. Very
- 6:30Speaker 8: popular highway down there. And the storm's just developing. So
- 6:34Speaker 8: this is going to be a long-duration event battering the shore.
- 6:38Speaker 8: Gusty winds, rainy, probably through Saturday, Saturday night, and even
- 6:42Speaker 8: into a good chunk of Sunday.
- 6:44Speaker 2: So wait a second. You're saying also not only may
- 6:47Speaker 2: Saturday get wiped out with rain and wind, but Sunday too?
- 6:52Speaker 8: Yeah, Sunday may end up being a little bit worse
- 6:54Speaker 8: than I think it was yesterday because we got this
- 6:57Speaker 8: little retrograde back toward the west. And it's not going
- 7:01Speaker 8: to be a fast moving system, too. Most of the time,
- 7:03Speaker 8: I would say most when you get these nor'easters coming in,
- 7:06Speaker 8: you know, you get maybe a 12 hour event, maybe
- 7:08Speaker 8: 18 hour event that the storm just comes and it
- 7:11Speaker 8: goes and it goes racing up the coast. That will
- 7:13Speaker 8: not be the case with this storm.
- 7:15Speaker 6: It's going to develop.
- 7:15Speaker 8: It's going to come in. It's going to be moving slowly,
- 7:18Speaker 8: and then it's going to move back toward the west
- 7:20Speaker 8: and just continue to spin. So that persistent onshore, northeast,
- 7:24Speaker 8: easterly push is going to continue to push water in.
- 7:27Speaker 8: And like I said, even around areas around New York Harbor,
- 7:30Speaker 8: there's going to be inundation. So the question is going
- 7:32Speaker 8: to be, how bad will it get? There's coastal flood
- 7:34Speaker 8: advisories and warnings, all kinds of advisories on the water, too.
- 7:38Speaker 8: But there's no reason, actually, to be out there, whether
- 7:40Speaker 8: it's on a boat or swimming, unless you've got, you know,
- 7:43Speaker 8: unless you're bots or something. You've got to just stay put. And,
- 7:47Speaker 8: you know, obviously follow what the warnings and the advisors
- 7:51Speaker 8: and your local emergency managers are giving for information. So,
- 7:54Speaker 8: you know, going to be a tough one. Going to
- 7:56Speaker 8: be a tough one.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Yeah, the first time you said slow moving, I grimaced
- 8:00Speaker 1: because I knew that was going to be a longer event.
- 8:02Speaker 1: But how far west is there going to be rain?
- 8:05Speaker 8: I think it'll get far west is most likely into
- 8:10Speaker 8: northwest Jersey, maybe the Poconos and then As far west
- 8:13Speaker 8: as the Catskills and as you go up the Hudson Valley,
- 8:16Speaker 8: most likely going to see that rain get close to Albany,
- 8:19Speaker 8: maybe into the Mohawk Valley. But the heavier rain is
- 8:21Speaker 8: going to be concentrated on about New York City, southeastern
- 8:25Speaker 8: New York, northeast Jersey, eastern east Jersey and out onto
- 8:29Speaker 8: eastern New England and Long Island. So it will rain even.
- 8:33Speaker 4: Where are you going, Curtis?
- 8:35Speaker 6: Somewhere?
- 8:36Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. Wait a second. Hold on. Because each day
- 8:41Speaker 2: we talk to you, it gets more dire. Every time
- 8:43Speaker 2: you say it's moving west, it's moving west. This is
- 8:46Speaker 2: not good for me. I got to get up to Marshall,
- 8:49Speaker 2: New York, to rescue the 16,000 beagles. We're breaking them
- 8:53Speaker 2: out out of Marshall, New York. It is the biggest
- 8:56Speaker 2: farm for beagle development that they use to test and
- 9:00Speaker 2: torture and kill. And so I'm already all geared up,
- 9:04Speaker 2: as the crew here has seen. I got the guardian
- 9:07Speaker 2: angel gear on. I look like Senator Fetterman. I got
- 9:10Speaker 2: the hoodie on, man. I'm good to go. Right into
- 9:13Speaker 2: the eye of the nor'easter.
- 9:16Speaker 8: When are you leaving? When are you heading out?
- 9:18Speaker 2: Late tonight. Oh, bad timing.
- 9:20Speaker 6: All right.
- 9:20Speaker 8: You should be fine.
- 9:22Speaker 3: Oh, really?
- 9:22Speaker 2: Look at you, bad timing.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Well, the later the worse.
- 9:26Speaker 2: You're right, Larry. This guy, he's like, come si, come sa,
- 9:31Speaker 2: don't worry about it. Everything's copacetic. Well, that was yesterday.
- 9:35Speaker 8: I'm a little bit more concerned today.
- 9:37Speaker 2: A little bit? Not for me. That's for sure. My
- 9:39Speaker 2: wife is. She told me to bring my galoshes with me.
- 9:42Speaker 2: I haven't heard that term in a month of Sundays.
- 9:47Speaker 2: galoshes do you even have galoshes i forgot what a
- 9:50Speaker 2: galosh was.
- 9:53Speaker 5: They now call them rain boots so.
- 9:56Speaker 1: It's interesting that you told him he'd be okay so
- 9:58Speaker 1: when is this going to start hitting.
- 10:01Speaker 8: Um we'll start to see showers probably coming in tonight
- 10:04Speaker 8: it doesn't mean it's not going to be raining but
- 10:06Speaker 8: the worst impacts will be as we go through the
- 10:08Speaker 8: second part of tomorrow tomorrow night and probably into at
- 10:11Speaker 8: least the first half of Sunday, it's going to be showery.
- 10:16Speaker 8: I can't even say that word, but there'll be showers
- 10:18Speaker 8: and the winds have already gusted 20, 30 miles per hour. So,
- 10:21Speaker 8: I mean, it's not going to be great, but I'm
- 10:24Speaker 8: saying you should be able to get there. I'm not
- 10:26Speaker 8: saying it's not going to be like rainy and a
- 10:28Speaker 8: little breezy, but it'll get great. Less rainy and less
- 10:31Speaker 8: breezy the further north and northwest you go.
- 10:34Speaker 2: I'm getting nauseous here. I'm really getting nauseous. Ray, one favor, please,
- 10:40Speaker 2: when you join us later in the show, because obviously
- 10:42Speaker 2: the weather is the primary story, bar none. I met
- 10:46Speaker 2: a whole tour group yesterday in Midtown. They were going
- 10:50Speaker 2: to the Ed Sheeran concert up at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Tonight he has one, tomorrow. And apparently, I guess, that
- 11:01Speaker 2: New England area is going to get clobbered bad. They
- 11:04Speaker 2: might have to cancel those concerts. So can you give
- 11:06Speaker 2: us an update on that when you join us later?
- 11:10Speaker 6: Yep, we can do that.
- 11:12Speaker 1: All right, thanks a lot, Ray Stajic. We'll talk to
- 11:14Speaker 1: you in a couple of hours. Go to the iHeartRadio
- 11:16Speaker 1: app and leave us a talkback. You could win a
- 11:18Speaker 1: Curtis Sliwa and Larry Menti in the morning T-shirt, which
- 11:21Speaker 1: will be awarded every day to our favorite talkback of
- 11:23Speaker 1: the morning. We'd love to hear how you might be
- 11:26Speaker 1: celebrating Dolly Day 925 and also how you're preparing for
- 11:31Speaker 1: the storm. And while you're on the free iHeartRadio app,
- 11:34Speaker 1: be sure to set a preset for 710WOR and don't
- 11:37Speaker 1: forget the best talkback of the week takes on the
- 11:39Speaker 1: Sea Crane Radio app. Seacrane radios that work when it
- 11:43Speaker 1: matters most. Oh, this is nauseating. Macklemore is announcing a
- 11:48Speaker 1: free Palestine tour. Oh, I'd love to be in that crowd.
- 11:52Speaker 1: Plus a chance to see Kenny G at 825. Hey,
- 11:57Speaker 1: we have Arthur Lee coming up in this show today,
- 12:00Speaker 1: the guy that is the founder of LifeVac and somebody
- 12:03Speaker 1: I believe is a national hero because he saved so
- 12:05Speaker 1: many lives. Because I can tell you how important this
- 12:08Speaker 1: is from covering the news all my life. I know
- 12:11Speaker 1: exactly how fast an everyday normal situation can turn into
- 12:16Speaker 1: an emergency. And choking is one of those moments, maybe
- 12:19Speaker 1: the most common. It can happen to anyone, a child,
- 12:22Speaker 1: a parent, a grandparent. And when it does, of course,
- 12:25Speaker 1: seconds matter. It's terrifying. That's why I want to tell
- 12:29Speaker 1: you about LifeVac. LifeVac is the first and only FDA-authorized
- 12:32Speaker 1: program suction anti-choking device to be used for second-line treatment
- 12:38Speaker 1: when recommended choking protocols like the Heimlich have been followed
- 12:43Speaker 1: without success. And here's what's remarkable. LifeVac has helped save
- 12:47Speaker 1: over 6,000 lives worldwide. Just last month, it saved a
- 12:52Speaker 1: little boy in Rialto, California. We'll be talking to Arthur
- 12:55Speaker 1: about that coming up. That's not just a number. Just
- 12:59Speaker 1: like that little boy, these are real people, real families,
- 13:02Speaker 1: real second chances. Preparedness matters. Having the right tool close
- 13:08Speaker 1: by can make all the difference in the world. So
- 13:11Speaker 1: you should learn more about LifeVac today at LifeVac.net. That's
- 13:15Speaker 1: all you have to do. Go to LifeVac.net. Visit LifeVac.net.
- 13:20Speaker 1: and see how you can be ready when it counts.
- 13:40Speaker 2: With my own friends that will join me on stage.
- 13:43Speaker 2: It's called the Free Palestine Tour. It begins in Dublin,
- 13:48Speaker 2: October 26th, then Paris on the 29th, and London on
- 13:52Speaker 2: the 30th. And he says it all proceeds from the concert.
- 13:55Speaker 2: We'll go to the Palestinian people in Gaza. Took a
- 14:00Speaker 2: quick shot at Ed Sheeran. He said, look, being apolitical
- 14:04Speaker 2: during a genocide doesn't work anymore. As Ed Sheeran, you
- 14:09Speaker 2: were at his concert last week. You said not only
- 14:13Speaker 2: was it well attended, Larry, but everybody loved it. I
- 14:17Speaker 2: met the tour group that was going up to Gillette
- 14:19Speaker 2: Stadium this weekend. His first concert is tonight at New
- 14:24Speaker 2: England Patriot Stadium and then one tomorrow, which may have
- 14:28Speaker 2: to be canceled because of high winds. Not so much
- 14:31Speaker 2: the rain. You know, it's an outdoor stadium. But high winds,
- 14:34Speaker 2: which would affect, obviously, equipment. So I hope they can
- 14:38Speaker 2: have that concert, because then that would be the curse
- 14:41Speaker 2: of Bob Kraft Sr., who really put the arm on
- 14:48Speaker 2: Ed Sheeran to remove Macklemore from the rest of the tour.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Let's get back to Macklemore. He's a despicable human being,
- 14:53Speaker 1: and it has nothing to do with Palestine. I just
- 14:56Speaker 1: hate that he had the— Ed Sheeran had the grace to
- 15:00Speaker 1: allow him on his stage. Macklemore is washed up. He
- 15:05Speaker 1: had one hit song. that I didn't want to play
- 15:08Speaker 1: because he disgusts me, but also you'd have to beep
- 15:11Speaker 1: your way all the way through it because he curses
- 15:13Speaker 1: so much. He has limited talent. Ed Sheeran has a
- 15:17Speaker 1: world of talent, and he kneecapped him. Ed Sheeran did
- 15:20Speaker 1: him a favor, and he kneecapped him. And the poor
- 15:23Speaker 1: guy broke down on stage because of this, because all
- 15:27Speaker 1: these friends left him, and he was afraid the fans
- 15:30Speaker 1: were going to leave him, but they didn't. They showed
- 15:33Speaker 1: up and sold out Lincoln Financial Field. That's the silent majority.
- 15:38Speaker 1: They're the people that show up when it counts. And
- 15:41Speaker 1: so Macklemore, I hope this fails. I'm sure it won't
- 15:45Speaker 1: because he's going to have all these leftist crazies showing
- 15:48Speaker 1: up to support him. But it'll be limited. It'll be
- 15:52Speaker 1: limited because he has limited talent. And so he'll have
- 15:56Speaker 1: his moment in the sun. He'll be able to rejoice
- 16:01Speaker 1: over taking out another really great performer who never talked politics.
- 16:06Speaker 1: because he thought it would offend his fans and curse
- 16:09Speaker 1: him for releasing that statement, being apolitical. What are you
- 16:13Speaker 1: talking about? Nobody wants to go to a concert and
- 16:16Speaker 1: hear politics.
- 16:17Speaker 2: Nobody.
- 16:18Speaker 1: And when they do, they want to know about it
- 16:20Speaker 1: in advance, like Springsteen does. So I hope the guy
- 16:23Speaker 1: completely fails. I'm sure he's going to have some success
- 16:26Speaker 1: with this tour, and then I hope he flames out again.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Let's get to some talkbacks.
- 16:33Speaker 8: They call him Rhinestone Curtis.
- 16:37Speaker 6: Savior of animals.
- 16:39Speaker 2: That's right. Do I wear the pink and the rhinestones
- 16:42Speaker 2: today and dress like a drag queen as a Dolly
- 16:45Speaker 2: Parton lookalike when I go up to Marshall, New York
- 16:48Speaker 2: to rescue the beagles this weekend?
- 16:50Speaker 1: I would pay to see that. Please do, and then
- 16:54Speaker 1: put it on Instagram. Hey, listen, speaking of rhinestones, somebody
- 16:59Speaker 1: that Where's rhinestones? And if you need to dress up
- 17:02Speaker 1: with rhinestones, you can go into his closet. Jimmy Fela,
- 17:05Speaker 1: WOR host, 9 to midnight, Fox Across America with Jimmy Fela,
- 17:10Speaker 1: and of course, host of Fox News Saturday Night with
- 17:13Speaker 1: Jimmy Fela on the Fox News channel, because he has
- 17:16Speaker 1: a comedy show and a dinner buffet and a meet
- 17:20Speaker 1: and greet. All of that in one. He'll be doing
- 17:24Speaker 1: a night of comedy at Kuchina Calandra in Fairfield, New

- 19:46Speaker 9: at once. I'm Daria Albinger on 710-WOR.
- 19:50Speaker 2: Governor of New Jersey. A helicopter pilot woman calls for
- 19:54Speaker 2: the lieutenant governor to resign, and he says, you can't
- 19:58Speaker 2: make me... We'll get to that up next. Meantime, our
- 20:03Speaker 2: 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival, presented by Capital One, has been completed.
- 20:10Speaker 2: You can relieve all the biggest moments streaming on Disney
- 20:15Speaker 2: Plus and Hulu beginning October 1st. As I call her, Larry,
- 20:20Speaker 2: the helicopter pilot, the governor of New Jersey, had a
- 20:24Speaker 2: big press conference yesterday, and she basically said, Lieutenant Governor...
- 20:29Speaker 2: It's time for you to be on the outside looking in.
- 20:32Speaker 2: These charges are serious. I don't want you around anymore.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Get out of the statehouse in Trenton. It's over. It's over.
- 20:41Speaker 2: But I have a feeling it's not over when I
- 20:44Speaker 2: saw the statements of the attorney representing the lieutenant governor
- 20:48Speaker 2: seem like a family feud. Here's the problem.
- 20:52Speaker 1: Mikey Sherrill, as usually, is beyond.
- 20:56Speaker 2: Her skis right now.
- 20:58Speaker 1: Because she put out a statement basically saying, you have
- 21:02Speaker 1: until tomorrow to resign or else.
- 21:07Speaker 2: Or else what?
- 21:08Speaker 4: What are you going to do?
- 21:10Speaker 2: She can not fire him. She can't.
- 21:14Speaker 1: She can start impeachment proceedings if she'd like to. Actually,
- 21:17Speaker 1: she can't even do that. She can just suggest it.
- 21:21Speaker 1: That has to happen in the legislature. And so it's
- 21:25Speaker 1: going to go to the assembly first. And then it
- 21:28Speaker 1: only takes one vote to move it on to the Senate,
- 21:31Speaker 1: where it takes two-thirds. So he's in a pretty darn
- 21:35Speaker 1: good position. Now, it was a 61-page report that was released.
- 21:40Speaker 1: And in it, it showed inappropriate behavior, not only when
- 21:43Speaker 1: he was a lieutenant governor and apparently hitting on the
- 21:46Speaker 1: friends of some of his staffers and trying to get
- 21:50Speaker 1: jobs for girlfriends, plural, girlfriends. So this guy is a player.
- 21:56Speaker 2: Wait, is he married? No, he's not married. Oh, okay.
- 21:59Speaker 2: So he probably says, well, I was footloose and fancy free.
- 22:03Speaker 2: He's trying to get jobs for those people. So that
- 22:06Speaker 2: is crossing the line. I agree with you to an extent.
- 22:10Speaker 2: I agree with you.
- 22:11Speaker 1: There is a different standard when you're not married. But
- 22:14Speaker 1: apparently he also had problems when he was at colleges
- 22:18Speaker 1: like Seton Hall and Centurion College, which he was the
- 22:22Speaker 1: president of for only two years. For only two years. Here's,
- 22:27Speaker 1: to me, the bigger story. And this is going to
- 22:28Speaker 1: play out now over the next few weeks. And there
- 22:32Speaker 1: has always been some alleged problems with this guy. Now
- 22:35Speaker 1: we have it in writing that he is a bit
- 22:39Speaker 1: of a player, if not a sexual predator, because there's
- 22:43Speaker 1: no rape charges or harassment charges. It's just that he's
- 22:46Speaker 1: a bit of a player. But he crossed the line
- 22:49Speaker 1: when he tried to get jobs for women that he had.
- 22:53Speaker 1: romantic relationships with. The bigger problem I have is Mikey Sherrill. Again,
- 22:59Speaker 1: did she vet this guy? You know, by the way,
- 23:03Speaker 1: he's playing the black card, too, by the way.
- 23:05Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, his complexion is his protection. The N-W-A-C-P, very
- 23:10Speaker 2: powerful New Jersey, to the rescue.
- 23:13Speaker 1: He's saying this is typical, that they always go after
- 23:15Speaker 1: a black politician. Well, you just became a politician. You
- 23:19Speaker 1: became a politician a few months back. In fact, that
- 23:22Speaker 1: was one of the endearing things about it. She said,
- 23:25Speaker 1: you see, I picked a non-politician for lieutenant governor. I
- 23:28Speaker 1: didn't do any other research on him. I did no
- 23:31Speaker 1: other research on him. I just know he is a
- 23:33Speaker 1: black guy and he's not a politician. And come on,
- 23:36Speaker 1: come on along.
- 23:37Speaker 2: She has been an amazing.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Disappointment as governor. And this is only the latest of
- 23:45Speaker 1: a long series of screw-ups on her part. By the way,
- 23:51Speaker 1: what is she doing about the voter rolls?
- 23:53Speaker 2: Well, exactly.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Remember, she came out and she said they found 6,000
- 23:57Speaker 1: people illegal.
- 23:58Speaker 2: Maybe more.
- 23:59Speaker 4: Maybe more, right?
- 24:00Speaker 1: Then the assembly came out and they said, no, no,
- 24:02Speaker 1: we found 40,000 and nothing.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Nothing's been done. But now on this lieutenant governor, so
- 24:09Speaker 2: there can't be an impeachment. He can't be sacked. There's
- 24:13Speaker 2: nothing that could be done to this guy by the governor?
- 24:16Speaker 1: Well, not by the governor, no. No, he's an elected official.
- 24:19Speaker 1: It's a separate election for him. So she doesn't hire him. Now,
- 24:23Speaker 1: she's the one that picked him to run with. But
- 24:26Speaker 1: he still had to be elected.
- 24:27Speaker 2: You know, this is similar to what Hochul went through.
- 24:31Speaker 2: She had her first pick was a disaster. The state
- 24:34Speaker 2: senator from African-American state senator from Harlem who got caught
- 24:39Speaker 2: up in a corruption case. He was in court. So
- 24:42Speaker 2: he had to leave. Then she picked a congressman. Why
- 24:45Speaker 2: would you leave Congress to become a lieutenant governor? Antonio
- 24:48Speaker 2: Delgado from the Mid-Hudson Valley had a great future ahead
- 24:52Speaker 2: of him. But early on, he couldn't work with Hochul.
- 24:54Speaker 2: And he said, you know what? I'm going to run
- 24:57Speaker 2: against you, which never manifested itself because her newfound friend,
- 25:03Speaker 2: the most popular politician in New York now, Zoran Mandami,
- 25:07Speaker 2: would not support this progressive Antonio Delgado. You know, I'm
- 25:11Speaker 2: supporting Hochul. But it seems like there's been a problem
- 25:15Speaker 2: with lieutenant governors for both Hochul and obviously now for
- 25:18Speaker 2: Shirell in Trenton.
- 25:20Speaker 1: It's going to be really fascinating today to see what
- 25:23Speaker 1: she does because what jumped out to everybody is the
- 25:28Speaker 1: you have until tomorrow or else.
- 25:30Speaker 2: What are you going to do? Can she take away
- 25:32Speaker 2: his parking spot? I don't know what she can do.
- 25:35Speaker 2: I don't think she can do anything.
- 25:37Speaker 1: So, again, she– you know– They probably went to her
- 25:41Speaker 1: and said, Governor, I got some bad news for you.
- 25:44Speaker 1: You put out there, you really should have checked that
- 25:46Speaker 1: statement with us because you put out there that you
- 25:48Speaker 1: were going to, he had until tomorrow. Yeah, he can
- 25:51Speaker 1: have as long as he wants.
- 25:52Speaker 2: And he will love this because now he's a martyr.
- 25:56Speaker 2: He'll play the black card, as you said. My complexion
- 25:58Speaker 2: is my protection. The NAACP will have a prayer session
- 26:02Speaker 2: for him, you know, all the right reverends. We'll say
- 26:04Speaker 2: prayers for them. You're right. They would never do this
- 26:07Speaker 2: to a white man, would they? Oh, boy. What a
- 26:10Speaker 2: mess she's in. Oh, it is.
- 26:12Speaker 1: It's going to be fascinating to see her today. It's
- 26:14Speaker 1: going to be fascinating because she has to say something now.
- 26:16Speaker 1: And she has nothing she can do. Once again, Mikey Sherrill,
- 26:21Speaker 1: not even knowing the most basic laws of the state.
- 26:25Speaker 1: We'll be talking a lot more about that on Monday.
- 26:30Speaker 1: But for right now... Can you believe that there is
- 26:33Speaker 1: one town in New Jersey that is flock central?
- 26:37Speaker 2: They love flock. They want more flock. Give them as
- 26:40Speaker 2: much flock as possible. Sounds like Red China. You know, gee,
- 26:43Speaker 2: they have flock all over Red China.
- 26:46Speaker 1: They're all over one town. We'll tell you that town
- 26:48Speaker 1: and what the success rate has been coming up next. Well,
- 26:53Speaker 1: if you're against flock cameras because it's an invasion of privacy,
- 26:57Speaker 1: if you want them all taken down, don't tell that
- 27:00Speaker 1: to the people... of Edison, New Jersey, the fourth largest
- 27:05Speaker 1: city in New Jersey with 107,000 people, because they put
- 27:11Speaker 1: in 20 flock cameras a little over a year ago,
- 27:15Speaker 1: and their home invasions went down from 87 in the
- 27:20Speaker 1: year before to 5. To 5. But for the mayor there,
- 27:26Speaker 1: he wants more.
- 27:27Speaker 14: We're going to get down to zero home invasions, burglaries,
- 27:30Speaker 14: and auto thefts.
- 27:32Speaker 15: No exceptions.
- 27:33Speaker 1: Yeah, he is aiming high. That is Sam Joshi, who
- 27:39Speaker 1: is the mayor there. He is pushing for more. And
- 27:43Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, the city council just approved,
- 27:46Speaker 1: listen to this, 92 more flock cameras, bringing the total
- 27:53Speaker 1: up well over 100, almost to 120. for a area
- 27:58Speaker 1: that is just 30 square miles. So there's going to
- 28:00Speaker 1: be flock cameras everywhere.
- 28:03Speaker 14: Now that we have every single entry and exit point
- 28:07Speaker 14: in the entire municipality, we'll have licensed air readers. A
- 28:12Speaker 14: criminal or a stolen vehicle that enters town, we will
- 28:15Speaker 14: be able to intercept them before they reach their destination.
- 28:19Speaker 2: You know, they're swimming against a tide there. Obviously, it's
- 28:23Speaker 2: working for them. They have the data. They have the analytics.
- 28:26Speaker 2: But you can see throughout America, there's more and more
- 28:29Speaker 2: opposition because of surveillance. The vice president, J.D. Vance, although
- 28:33Speaker 2: not specifically talking flocks, said his big concern with AI
- 28:39Speaker 2: and technology is surveillance of America. And up next, we're
- 28:43Speaker 2: going to be talking about President Xi's visit with Donald
- 28:46Speaker 2: Trump at the White House. And nobody uses flock technology
- 28:51Speaker 2: more than in Red China, where every square inch has
- 28:53Speaker 2: a flock camera or technology similar to that.
- 28:56Speaker 1: They had that technology before we put it up all
- 28:59Speaker 1: around the country. But listen, they had a vote on
- 29:03Speaker 1: this with the city council. And it was six to
- 29:05Speaker 1: one for this. So there's really no opposition. And they
- 29:08Speaker 1: interviewed the people that live in Edison, New Jersey. They
- 29:11Speaker 1: all love it. There was no opposition. Two TV crews
- 29:15Speaker 1: went out and talked to a few dozen people. They
- 29:18Speaker 1: all love it. Even the guy that voted against it,
- 29:21Speaker 1: the councilman that voted against it, admit it works.
- 29:24Speaker 16: I don't like the flock cameras, even though I would
- 29:27Speaker 16: tell the chief myself personally, I think they're very, very
- 29:30Speaker 16: effective cameras. But just having Big Brother watch over us
- 29:35Speaker 16: is a problem I have with being a citizen of
- 29:38Speaker 16: the United States.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Yeah, except it is such a fallacious argument that you
- 29:45Speaker 1: have privacy, that it's invading your privacy. Again, and I
- 29:49Speaker 1: say this all the time, but it's really important to
- 29:51Speaker 1: know you have no privacy when you're out on the road.
- 29:54Speaker 6: None.
- 29:56Speaker 1: That's what your license plates are for. This just makes
- 29:59Speaker 1: it so they can grab them and make sure you're
- 30:00Speaker 1: not a criminal. They don't care about you at all.
- 30:04Speaker 1: They're never going to look at your information if you're
- 30:08Speaker 1: not a criminal or if it's not some cop that
- 30:10Speaker 1: it's hot for some woman. That's been the entire problem.
- 30:14Speaker 1: The lack of privacy has always been not with the cameras,
- 30:17Speaker 1: not with the technology, not with the departments, but individual
- 30:20Speaker 1: police officers who use it for their own benefit.
- 30:24Speaker 2: There's also been the argument, where does that information go,
- 30:28Speaker 2: especially with artificial intelligence? Does it go into data banks?
- 30:32Speaker 2: So there are a lot of, look, if a local
- 30:34Speaker 2: community wants it, hey, great. We're saying the same thing
- 30:37Speaker 2: about AI data filing centers. If a local community gets
- 30:41Speaker 2: together and the people actually have a say, like in
- 30:43Speaker 2: this case, it does not appear to be much opposition,
- 30:47Speaker 2: then that's fine. But let the people determine that. And Edison,
- 30:51Speaker 2: New Jersey, clearly is making that determination where the one obstruction,
- 30:56Speaker 2: we'll call it the holdout juror, the city councilman who
- 30:59Speaker 2: was so concerned about big brother Orwellian, actually was converted
- 31:03Speaker 2: without nobody putting the arm on him because he looked
- 31:06Speaker 2: at the analytics. So I say that's all part and
- 31:09Speaker 2: parcel of what we want to see in America. Local communities...
- 31:12Speaker 2: get together and make decisions in terms of what they
- 31:15Speaker 2: think is in their best interest. That's democracy in action.
- 31:18Speaker 1: Yeah, but they need all the facts. And right now,
- 31:20Speaker 1: it's just this big scare thing that, oh, my God,
- 31:22Speaker 1: Big Brother is after you. That's just not the truth.
- 31:25Speaker 1: It is not the truth. Now, I understand there should
- 31:27Speaker 1: be limits, and there have been limits put in by
- 31:30Speaker 1: the state. The state of New Jersey has their own limits.
- 31:32Speaker 1: The state of New York has its own limits. And
- 31:34Speaker 1: now even the company, the guy that the CEO of
- 31:37Speaker 1: Flock came out and said, well, instead of 30 days
- 31:40Speaker 1: keeping this, we're going to keep it for seven days.
- 31:42Speaker 1: So there's already limits being put on. That's all a
- 31:44Speaker 1: good thing. But the benefits so outweighs the minor risk
- 31:51Speaker 1: it is.
- 31:52Speaker 3: It is.
- 31:53Speaker 1: I'd rather be safe to tell you the truth. I
- 31:55Speaker 1: don't care.
- 31:56Speaker 2: But that's your choice as an American. I would prefer
- 31:59Speaker 2: not to be under surveillance. But let the people decide.
- 32:02Speaker 2: You're under surveillance all day long. I know, but I
- 32:05Speaker 2: want another layer of surveillance in which my personal information
- 32:09Speaker 2: is going into this AI catacomb. Anyway, up next, a
- 32:13Speaker 2: man who has surveillance of every one of the billion
- 32:17Speaker 2: and a half citizens in his country. He was with
- 32:20Speaker 2: Trump at the White House. It's 7 o'clock in the news.
- 32:24Speaker 2: So it was quite the gathering at the White House
- 32:29Speaker 2: for the Red Chinese delegation led by President Xi and
- 32:33Speaker 2: his wife, who were there with President Donald Trump and
- 32:37Speaker 2: actually Madam First Lady Melania. And so it seemed to
- 32:42Speaker 2: all looking at Larry that it was quite a love fest.
- 32:46Speaker 2: For me, I was struck by the president who attacks
- 32:51Speaker 2: communism whenever he can in terms of a political sense
- 32:54Speaker 2: and embraced his favorite commie, Zorhan Mandami, at City Hall
- 32:59Speaker 2: on Monday and then the really big commie from Red
- 33:01Speaker 2: China on Friday. I mean, it really was different than
- 33:06Speaker 2: we've seen other gatherings with previous presidents with leaders in
- 33:10Speaker 2: Red China. But before we get into those elements... I'm
- 33:14Speaker 2: trying to figure out what they talked about, the really
- 33:17Speaker 2: serious issues that affect the world, never mind America and
- 33:21Speaker 2: Red China. And it was this media fight, this ongoing
- 33:24Speaker 2: media fight that I thought, based on your great breakdown
- 33:28Speaker 2: of the judge's decision, basically at one o'clock in the
- 33:32Speaker 2: morning of the day of the summit, that that was resolved.
- 33:36Speaker 2: But that's all you kept hearing. CNN is not there.
- 33:39Speaker 2: Where's the pool video? Trump TV, state TV, media fight.
- 33:44Speaker 2: What the hell is all of that going on?
- 33:46Speaker 1: Well, the pool video, that's their own fault because they
- 33:51Speaker 1: are so indignant that their brethren were not allowed in
- 33:56Speaker 1: that there was no pool. Let me explain. The pool
- 33:59Speaker 1: camera is when you have a small venue, when you
- 34:03Speaker 1: have a small area, instead of allowing all the media
- 34:06Speaker 1: to come in, they allow one camera to shoot it all.
- 34:10Speaker 1: And they take turns, you know, whether it's your turn.
- 34:13Speaker 1: And it usually is decided by the media themselves. Well,
- 34:17Speaker 1: they were so indignant about CNN, MSNOW, and Politico not
- 34:24Speaker 1: getting in after the president ignored the judicial order. Later
- 34:30Speaker 1: in the day, he came around. But at first, when
- 34:32Speaker 1: they tried to get in the White House, they.
- 34:34Speaker 2: Couldn't get in.
- 34:35Speaker 1: They were so indignant, nobody wanted to be part of
- 34:37Speaker 1: the pool. Now, who does that hurt, by the way?
- 34:40Speaker 4: And why?
- 34:41Speaker 1: I don't think the president cared. I don't think he
- 34:43Speaker 1: really cared. So all it hurts is us. All it
- 34:46Speaker 1: is is the media once again thinking about themselves, thinking
- 34:51Speaker 1: they're the story, making a statement.
- 34:55Speaker 2: When they shouldn't be.
- 34:58Speaker 1: When I grew up in journalism, I would get– talking
- 35:04Speaker 1: to if I ever made myself the story. And I've
- 35:07Speaker 1: heard this several times. It's not about you. It's about
- 35:11Speaker 1: the story. Did they use the image of Sam Donaldson?
- 35:14Speaker 2: Hey, Mr. President!
- 35:17Speaker 1: Yeah, well, listen, there's a lot of reporters in every market,
- 35:21Speaker 1: and usually I was the one That did things to
- 35:25Speaker 1: call attention to themselves. But my argument always is, if
- 35:29Speaker 1: you are adding to the story by doing what you're doing,
- 35:34Speaker 1: then it's okay. And I usually would win that argument.
- 35:36Speaker 1: In this case, let's get back to the story we're
- 35:38Speaker 1: talking about. In this case, the media made themselves the
- 35:42Speaker 1: story and killed the story. Hurt the story, at least.
- 35:47Speaker 1: So we didn't have pictures of much of it. And
- 35:50Speaker 1: they did that just to prove a point. We'll show them.
- 35:53Speaker 1: It didn't hurt them. It didn't even hurt the media.
- 35:56Speaker 2: It hurt us.
- 35:58Speaker 1: We don't get coverage when they do those types of things.
- 36:01Speaker 1: So it was all ridiculous. This story, and I don't
- 36:05Speaker 1: agree with the president, by the way. Let me just
- 36:07Speaker 1: say that in the beginning. I don't agree. I think
- 36:09Speaker 1: that was like a baby fit in pulling their credentials.
- 36:12Speaker 1: I don't agree with that at all. And he knew
- 36:14Speaker 1: he was going to lose, and he just did it
- 36:15Speaker 1: to kind of smack their hands. But for them to
- 36:19Speaker 1: react the way they've reacted, that's just as bad. That's
- 36:23Speaker 1: just as bad. Just take it. Know you're going to
- 36:26Speaker 1: win the case. Know you have a constitutional right. Let
- 36:29Speaker 1: others cover you. They will. The media, they'll cover for
- 36:32Speaker 1: each other if you get cut out. You know, they're
- 36:34Speaker 1: not going to give you exclusives, but they'll give you video.
- 36:37Speaker 2: So that video we saw of the president, he's always
- 36:40Speaker 2: so proud when world leaders come to the White House.
- 36:43Speaker 2: to show them the list of presidents on the wall,
- 36:45Speaker 2: you know, their little bios, their pictures. And then it
- 36:48Speaker 2: always comes to the Joe Biden portrait, which is the
- 36:51Speaker 2: auto pen. And you could see President Xi laughing, laughing
- 36:56Speaker 2: as the president, Donald Trump, was showing him the auto pen.
- 36:59Speaker 2: So we did get some insights. But who was that
- 37:01Speaker 2: shot by? I have no idea. It could have been
- 37:04Speaker 2: shot by the White House. Or maybe the Chinese video reporter.
- 37:07Speaker 2: The president said, why can't the reporters be nice like
- 37:10Speaker 2: the Chinese reporters? But I thought there was a statement.
- 37:14Speaker 2: I think nobody notices. Whenever you see President Xi, he's
- 37:18Speaker 2: always dressed in Western garb. You know, the suit and tie,
- 37:21Speaker 2: suit and tie. Last night at the White House state dinner,
- 37:26Speaker 2: was the president had its tux and tails and his
- 37:29Speaker 2: bow tie and Melania was dressed like right out of
- 37:33Speaker 2: the pages of Fashion Magazine. And there was Mrs. Yee.
- 37:39Speaker 2: President Yee, the chairman of the CCP, had a mild
- 37:44Speaker 2: jacket on. I have not seen a mild jacket since
- 37:49Speaker 2: I think the Beatles were wearing it, remember, on the
- 37:52Speaker 2: stage of the Ed Sullivan Show as part of their carpeting.
- 37:55Speaker 2: That is a statement there.
- 37:57Speaker 1: You think so?
- 37:58Speaker 2: Yeah, because you never see the guy in a mall jacket.
- 38:02Speaker 2: He's always dressed, you know, in a suit and a tie,
- 38:04Speaker 2: Western style. So nobody picked up on that. But what
- 38:08Speaker 2: I was really disappointed in most of all is we
- 38:10Speaker 2: never got an insight as well as they were getting along.
- 38:13Speaker 2: And there's no doubt they seem to be genuinely enjoying
- 38:17Speaker 2: each other's company. What's going on with the terror fight,
- 38:21Speaker 2: artificial intelligence, obviously Iran, we're Red China can be very,
- 38:26Speaker 2: very helpful. Taiwan, other really important issues. We didn't even
- 38:31Speaker 2: get a morsel of information about that. I'm assuming they
- 38:35Speaker 2: had discussions. Long periods of time, they were behind closed doors.
- 38:39Speaker 2: But boy, based on other presidential summits where you normally
- 38:43Speaker 2: get a little bit, we got a little bit when
- 38:45Speaker 2: Trump went for that short visit to Beijing. But this,
- 38:49Speaker 2: so far, we have gotten nothing. It happened once before.
- 38:53Speaker 2: Remember when B.B.
- 38:54Speaker 1: Came and he had a meeting that the media wasn't
- 38:57Speaker 1: allowed to and there was no news conference afterwards and
- 39:00Speaker 1: he left the White House and nobody even knew when
- 39:02Speaker 1: he left? It happens every once in a while. By
- 39:05Speaker 1: the way, I think you were right about Mal, but
- 39:08Speaker 1: I did look it up to just make sure we're
- 39:11Speaker 1: giving the accurate information. And I didn't know this, so
- 39:15Speaker 1: I'm sharing this as somebody that didn't know this. Chinese
- 39:18Speaker 1: President Xi Jinping has periodically worn a modified Mao-style suit.
- 39:25Speaker 1: So he does this for high-profile political events, usually in
- 39:30Speaker 1: his own country, though, not abroad. Political events, military inspections,
- 39:35Speaker 1: and state banquets. So it's something he wears to high-profile events.
- 39:40Speaker 2: So maybe... Maybe he didn't.
- 39:42Speaker 1: Pack other clothes.
- 39:43Speaker 2: We call fashion does make statements. Like Melania, that was
- 39:48Speaker 2: a fabulous outfit. That made a statement. The president tucks
- 39:51Speaker 2: and tails the bow tie. That made a statement, Mrs.
- 39:53Speaker 6: Xi.
- 39:54Speaker 2: But his wearing of the Mao jacket in the United States,
- 39:59Speaker 2: I think clearly said, yeah, don't ever forget. I may
- 40:02Speaker 2: be capitalist, but I'm still CCP relying on the Red
- 40:07Speaker 2: Book of Mao Zedong.
- 40:09Speaker 1: No, it is definitely in tribute to Mao Zedong. I mean,
- 40:12Speaker 1: he's admitted that it is a tribute to Mao Zedong.
- 40:15Speaker 1: So that's the reason he wears it. But he's worn
- 40:17Speaker 1: it to other high profile events in the past. But
- 40:20Speaker 1: I think it's even if he has, it is a
- 40:23Speaker 1: constant statement. And this was a United States event. So, yeah,
- 40:27Speaker 1: it could be. I don't know. I will see if
- 40:30Speaker 1: that goes anywhere. I just got a feeling. It's great
- 40:32Speaker 1: that you picked that up, but I got a feeling
- 40:34Speaker 1: that's not going to go anywhere.
- 40:35Speaker 6: Right.
- 40:35Speaker 2: But I'm more obviously of more importance is what was
- 40:39Speaker 2: the actual discussion? We saw no tension. We've seen tension
- 40:43Speaker 2: before other than when Richard Nixon broke through the red
- 40:47Speaker 2: Chinese wall. Remember, unexpectedly to meet with Mao Zedong. I mean,
- 40:53Speaker 2: that was completely unexpected. And that was banquets and visits
- 40:58Speaker 2: and everything was feeling good. But most other times when
- 41:02Speaker 2: you have these issues that are grinding a bit on
- 41:05Speaker 2: one another, generally both sides will make statements. Like remember
- 41:08Speaker 2: when the president was in Beijing upon his departure because
- 41:12Speaker 2: Trump only spent like a day and a half. Remember
- 41:15Speaker 2: how President Xi said, oh, no, we didn't agree to
- 41:19Speaker 2: help in dealing with Iran at all. Remember, that was
- 41:22Speaker 2: what the president was hoping for. So I think out
- 41:25Speaker 2: of all the issues, and they were all very important
- 41:28Speaker 2: to the world, to both their countries, our country, is
- 41:33Speaker 2: the fact that if there is going to be any
- 41:35Speaker 2: momentum to solving the war in Iran, China can be
- 41:39Speaker 2: a real player in this because They are the patrons
- 41:42Speaker 2: now of Iran. They are clearly supporting Iran in many
- 41:45Speaker 2: different ways.
- 41:46Speaker 1: Absolutely. But that also gives them a bargaining chip. And
- 41:50Speaker 1: I worry a little bit about what was talked about.
- 41:53Speaker 1: We need to know, and I'm sure that Donald Trump
- 41:55Speaker 1: talks to the media so much on his own. He's
- 41:58Speaker 1: given everybody his phone number. I'm sure it's going to
- 42:00Speaker 1: leak out. But the thing that concerned me the most
- 42:03Speaker 1: was how many high-tech executives were at the White House
- 42:08Speaker 1: and how many got to meet with Chairman Xi. Because
- 42:11Speaker 1: that means AI was on the table. And I hope,
- 42:15Speaker 1: I hope, I hope we don't give up too much.
- 42:18Speaker 1: Because when Chairman Xi came, he said that was the
- 42:20Speaker 1: number one thing he wanted to talk about.
- 42:22Speaker 2: And you notice when you looked at the roster of
- 42:24Speaker 2: all the AI CEOs, there was nobody who was MIA.
- 42:29Speaker 2: They were all there.
- 42:30Speaker 1: Of course.
- 42:31Speaker 2: They want the money. That's a huge market. Are you
- 42:34Speaker 2: kidding me? Of course it is.
- 42:36Speaker 1: Well, listen, when we come back, we got some new
- 42:39Speaker 1: songs for you from someone who doesn't normally put out songs.
- 42:44Speaker 2: Wendy's.
- 42:46Speaker 1: Songs you can listen to in their parking lot. Yep,
- 42:51Speaker 1: it's about as good as you think it would be.
- 42:53Speaker 1: Plus a chance to see Kenny G at age 25.
- 42:56Speaker 2: But first.
- 42:58Speaker 1: It has been just one month since Dolly Parton's death,
- 43:02Speaker 1: and her estate right now is a big fight going on.
- 43:05Speaker 2: It's a mess. It's already in litigation.
- 43:09Speaker 1: Joining us to try to shed some light on this
- 43:11Speaker 1: is asset protection attorney Ann-Margaret Carrozza. Ann-Margaret, this is a mess.
- 43:18Speaker 17: Absolutely, Larry. This is shaping up to be a three-ring circus.
- 43:25Speaker 17: So the takeaway for me at this point, we don't
- 43:28Speaker 17: know all of the facts, but it's critically important to
- 43:32Speaker 17: remember that all estate contests take money from the ultimate beneficiaries.
- 43:40Speaker 17: And who gets that money? The lawyers get the money.
- 43:44Speaker 17: So when we have reason to believe, and I think
- 43:48Speaker 17: we all have some people in our families that could
- 43:52Speaker 17: pose a problem later, It's critically important to deal with
- 43:58Speaker 17: the issue at the outset. We want to avoid probate
- 44:03Speaker 17: with its very public and months-long process. And in most cases,
- 44:10Speaker 17: this means having a trust.
- 44:12Speaker 1: Is it possible at all that she didn't have a
- 44:16Speaker 1: will or a trust? I mean, what else would bring
- 44:19Speaker 1: this kind of fight?
- 44:20Speaker 17: It seems to me like the nephew against whom the
- 44:25Speaker 17: Tennessee judge has issued a temporary restraining order, his nose
- 44:31Speaker 17: is out of joint. He was insulted. By all accounts,
- 44:35Speaker 17: she had her estate planning buttoned up, but something happened
- 44:40Speaker 17: after death, and he is PO'd, and there's going to
- 44:44Speaker 17: be a follow-up hearing on October 7th.
- 44:47Speaker 6: All right.
- 44:48Speaker 2: We'll all wait for that.
- 44:49Speaker 1: Thank you, Ann-Margaret. Ann-Margaret Carrozza, host of The Laws of
- 44:52Speaker 1: Your Money with Ann-Margaret Carrozza, Sundays at 1030. I'll be listening.
- 44:57Speaker 2: Thanks, Ann-Margaret.
- 44:58Speaker 17: Take care.
- 44:59Speaker 4: Bye-bye.
- 44:59Speaker 1: So Wendy's, the fast food chain, Curtis, is putting out
- 45:04Speaker 1: an album.
- 45:06Speaker 12: An album?
- 45:07Speaker 2: An album. Are they going to compete with the, who's
- 45:09Speaker 2: that country-western woman you said had the number one song
- 45:12Speaker 2: of all time?
- 45:12Speaker 6: Ella Langley.
- 45:13Speaker 2: They trying to compete with her?
- 45:15Speaker 1: I've listened to the songs. I don't think so. I
- 45:17Speaker 1: don't think they're going to, but they spent a lot
- 45:19Speaker 1: of money on this project. They're putting out a six-track
- 45:23Speaker 1: emo album, and they hired Matt Squire, who is a
- 45:27Speaker 1: big producer. He worked with Panic! at the Disco and
- 45:31Speaker 1: many other current groups. Also, They hired some singers from
- 45:37Speaker 1: some well-known groups. Not some of the top groups, but
- 45:41Speaker 1: enough to attract a crowd. And this is an album
- 45:46Speaker 1: called Songs to Listen to in the Wendy's Parking Lot.
- 45:51Speaker 1: So they're getting a lot of publicity about this. And
- 45:53Speaker 1: for that, that's probably worth the money they.
- 45:55Speaker 2: Spent on it.
- 45:57Speaker 1: But I don't know. Let me just play one for you.
- 46:00Speaker 1: This is Maddie Mullins. who is the lead singer of
- 46:04Speaker 1: Memphis Mayfire. And she sings, he sings, excuse me, She
- 46:10Speaker 1: said she didn't want fries.
- 46:13Speaker 2: You don't go to Wendy's for fries. They're really bad.
- 46:16Speaker 5: Oh, I like Wendy's fries.
- 46:17Speaker 18: I do, too.
- 46:18Speaker 6: No, no.
- 46:18Speaker 2: I do, too. Mickey D's.
- 46:19Speaker 5: And I have a problem with anybody who doesn't order fries.
- 46:23Speaker 5: And if I'm at a restaurant, they're like, I won't
- 46:25Speaker 5: take the fries. I said, yes, you will, because I'll
- 46:27Speaker 5: be having them.
- 46:28Speaker 2: Baked potato is what I like there. But meantime. Yeah,
- 46:31Speaker 2: that's good, too. Wendy's is closing hundreds of underperforming restaurants.
- 46:38Speaker 2: they've announced this. So this is going to be an
- 46:40Speaker 2: underperforming album here.
- 46:42Speaker 1: Well, let's see. I mean, they have, but you know what?
- 46:45Speaker 1: Maybe that wasn't a good example. How about I miss
- 46:49Speaker 1: the sun room by Shane Todd from Silverstein.
- 46:52Speaker 2: Gosh, stay in your lane, Wendy.
- 46:57Speaker 5: This is so funny.
- 46:59Speaker 7: I love this.
- 47:00Speaker 2: It is so bad, but I think that's the point.
- 47:04Speaker 5: They're, they're taking songs and they're kind of mocking them.
- 47:07Speaker 2: This is great.
- 47:08Speaker 1: And for that reason, you just mentioned this might sell.
- 47:12Speaker 4: This is funny.
- 47:12Speaker 1: It might sell as a novelty album to get it
- 47:15Speaker 1: for that reason.
- 47:16Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe a Christmas album, right? Put it under the tree. Oh, God.
- 47:21Speaker 2: What happened when Thomas, the guy who used to be
- 47:24Speaker 2: the founder of Wednesdays, he passed away.
- 47:27Speaker 1: Dave Thomas, yeah.
- 47:27Speaker 2: They've gone down, down, down. This is a jerky idea.
- 47:33Speaker 2: We'll see.
- 47:33Speaker 1: We'll see if it's successful or not. Let's get some talkbacks.
- 47:37Speaker 3: Hey, Larry.
- 47:38Speaker 18: I don't agree with you with these flat cameras at all.
- 47:41Speaker 18: I think that We are surveyed or surveilled too much
- 47:45Speaker 18: as it is. I believe that there are some benefits
- 47:49Speaker 18: to the flock cameras, but I think that we're moving
- 47:51Speaker 18: way too quickly into them. I think that if you're
- 47:53Speaker 18: going to add thousands of flock cameras throughout the state,
- 47:57Speaker 18: I think you should add thousands of flock cameras throughout
- 47:59Speaker 18: all federal property and buildings.
- 48:02Speaker 2: I think that's the only fair way.
- 48:03Speaker 1: Well, there are already cameras in all the federal properties
- 48:06Speaker 1: and buildings. You've been surveilled for a long, long time.
- 48:10Speaker 1: And this has solved so many crimes. I get what
- 48:15Speaker 1: you're saying. I know there's some bad to it. There's
- 48:17Speaker 1: some good and there's some bad to it. But in
- 48:20Speaker 1: my belief, the good far outweighs the bad.
- 48:23Speaker 12: Hey, Larry, Curtis, I think the highlight of the Chi
- 48:26Speaker 12: meeting with Trump was when they were walking down the
- 48:29Speaker 12: hall looking at the portraits of the presidents and they
- 48:31Speaker 12: stumbled upon The Autopen portrait. I don't think I've ever
- 48:35Speaker 12: seen Chi Laff at all in all the meetings that I've.
- 48:38Speaker 6: Seen on TV with him.
- 48:40Speaker 12: But he gave out a nice chuckle.
- 48:43Speaker 2: He did. He gave out a belly laugh. Very cogent
- 48:47Speaker 2: of you. You never see that guy. He's like Charles Bronson.
- 48:50Speaker 2: You know, he's got that stone face look. But right now,
- 48:54Speaker 2: It's time for us to go for our 7.30 news
- 48:57Speaker 2: report from Daria.
- 48:58Speaker 4: Morning, guys.

- 49:08Speaker 19: Coastal neighborhoods may deal with flooding as some residents in
- 49:11Speaker 19: Lindenhurst are now used to.
- 49:13Speaker 10: Annoying, scary, although my husband does get out of his
- 49:16Speaker 10: kayak and he'll go down the block with the neighbors,
- 49:17Speaker 10: so they get a kick out of it.
- 49:19Speaker 4: We are the poster child.

- 49:46Speaker 9: That's what New Jersey Governor Mikey Sherrill is telling Lieutenant
- 49:48Speaker 9: Governor Dale Caldwell after the release of an investigation into
- 49:52Speaker 9: sexual harassment allegations against him. There's no word if they
- 49:56Speaker 9: could result in criminal or civil action against Caldwell. Fair
- 50:00Speaker 9: and fair at the White House. For the first visit
- 50:02Speaker 9: from China's President Xi in over a decade, President Trump
- 50:05Speaker 9: touting their relationship.
- 50:06Speaker 7: While the day was heavy on ceremony, it seems to
- 50:10Speaker 7: be light on substance. There were not deliverables that were
- 50:13Speaker 7: announced coming out of these meetings. In fact, the two
- 50:15Speaker 7: leaders spent just about 90 minutes together behind closed doors
- 50:18Speaker 7: throughout the entire day. This was really a show of
- 50:21Speaker 7: friendship and the personal relationship between the two countries more
- 50:26Speaker 7: than it seems to be focused on ceremony. coming out
- 50:29Speaker 7: and announcing concrete progress on some of these thornier issues.
- 50:32Speaker 9: ABC's Mary Bruce. Classes at the elementary and middle schools
- 50:35Speaker 9: in South River, New Jersey, will be held online today

- 50:58Speaker 2: Up next, Rob Astorino will give us a breakdown of
- 51:01Speaker 2: two polls on the Blakeman-Hockel run. One really good for Blakeman,
- 51:07Speaker 2: one not so good. Meantime, our 2026 iHeartRadio Music Festival
- 51:13Speaker 2: presented by Capital One has come to a close. You
- 51:17Speaker 2: get to relive all the biggest moments streaming on Disney
- 51:21Speaker 2: Plus and Hulu beginning on October 1st. without our best
- 51:25Speaker 2: sereno our colleague on the line you can hear him
- 51:27Speaker 2: here at 7 10 wor saturdays four to five and
- 51:31Speaker 2: i know a lot of what he's going to be
- 51:33Speaker 2: talking about we'll deal with the little hors d'oeuvres that
- 51:36Speaker 2: we give him now larry rob first up back to
- 51:40Speaker 2: back belly to belly two polls uh that reflected on
- 51:44Speaker 2: the gubernatorial race between bruce blakeman and governor hokal one
- 51:49Speaker 2: i thought was very good sienna The second from Larry's
- 51:53Speaker 2: former alumni, Quinnipiac. That's where he went. Not so good.
- 51:59Speaker 2: When you pulled out the tabs and you looked at
- 52:01Speaker 2: all the analytics, what conclusions did you come to?
- 52:05Speaker 3: Well, first of all, let's throw the Quinnipiac poll out.
- 52:08Speaker 3: I mean, honestly, it was a garbage poll. Never should
- 52:11Speaker 3: have even been published. And why?
- 52:14Speaker 6: Why?
- 52:14Speaker 3: Because they vastly undersampled Republicans. They had 21% of their
- 52:19Speaker 3: respondents are Republicans across the state. That is not a
- 52:23Speaker 3: gubernatorial turnout for Republicans. It's up in the upper 20s.
- 52:27Speaker 3: And that's exactly where Siena was. So they have a
- 52:30Speaker 3: better snapshot. And I send my money to Quinnipiac. My
- 52:33Speaker 3: daughter goes there. I should demand a refund if this.
- 52:36Speaker 2: Is what they're doing.
- 52:40Speaker 3: But anyway, so I'm not even going to touch the
- 52:42Speaker 3: Q poll because I think it is garbage. The Siena poll,
- 52:46Speaker 3: I think, is a lot more likely. And there's a
- 52:49Speaker 3: lot of good news in there for Bruce Blakeman. The
- 52:52Speaker 3: people in this state think we are going in the
- 52:54Speaker 3: wrong direction in this state. And that has nothing to
- 52:57Speaker 3: do with nationally. They just think the state's going in
- 52:59Speaker 3: the wrong direction. And that's even worse for Hochul than
- 53:02Speaker 3: it was in August. So that's very, very helpful because
- 53:06Speaker 3: that's always a big indicator. And the suburbs and upstate
- 53:10Speaker 3: especially think we're going in the wrong direction. So that's
- 53:13Speaker 3: helpful to Blakeman. When you look at the numbers, Hochul
- 53:17Speaker 3: is doing very, very well. It's what's propping her up
- 53:21Speaker 3: with women. She's up 23 points with women. So that's
- 53:25Speaker 3: an area that Blakeman's got to cut into. And if
- 53:28Speaker 3: he does, I think he's sitting in a good spot
- 53:31Speaker 3: because he's up with independence. He's getting about 27% right
- 53:37Speaker 3: now in New York City. He's got to climb to
- 53:40Speaker 3: about 30, a little over 30. And he's in a
- 53:43Speaker 3: great spot to win. Here's the thing, though. This is
- 53:47Speaker 3: what drives me nuts about people in New York. Affordability
- 53:51Speaker 3: is their number one issue. And they think Hochul and
- 53:56Speaker 3: the Democrats who have given us the unaffordability would do
- 54:02Speaker 3: a better job.
- 54:03Speaker 2: I mean, it's insane.
- 54:04Speaker 3: So the messaging for Blakeman has to keep pounding on
- 54:08Speaker 3: this is the woman who has made it completely unaffordable
- 54:11Speaker 3: for us. We'll keep going that way if you reelect her.
- 54:15Speaker 3: I'm the guy. I mean, that's got to be the
- 54:17Speaker 3: message because that's really the biggest issue here.
- 54:19Speaker 1: Yeah, he's on point right now. I thought that he
- 54:22Speaker 1: wobbled when he first came out, but man, he's really
- 54:25Speaker 1: on point now. I've watched a few interviews with him
- 54:28Speaker 1: and he's doing exactly what you said. You know, anytime
- 54:31Speaker 1: they bring up anything, AI databases, the war in Iran,
- 54:35Speaker 1: he goes back to taxes and utility bills, taxes and
- 54:40Speaker 1: utility bills. So he's really on message right now. I
- 54:43Speaker 1: don't know if you were a part of that, but
- 54:47Speaker 1: he's been impressive now for like the last week. I
- 54:50Speaker 1: don't know if this polls inspired him or what. Do
- 54:53Speaker 1: you agree?
- 54:54Speaker 2: Totally.
- 54:55Speaker 3: And, you know, I remember when I was running in
- 54:58Speaker 3: 2009 in Westchester, which is a very democratic county, and
- 55:02Speaker 3: they just kept hitting me on abortion. And I was told,
- 55:05Speaker 3: you need message discipline, okay? Because you have to get
- 55:09Speaker 3: enough Democrats to cross over. And that's not what they
- 55:12Speaker 3: want to do, but you have to make them do it.
- 55:15Speaker 3: So when they hit you over the head with abortion,
- 55:17Speaker 3: you talk taxes. Same thing. When they hit you over
- 55:20Speaker 3: the head with, in this case, Iran, you talk taxes.
- 55:24Speaker 3: And that's exactly what people feel. And, you know, so
- 55:28Speaker 3: they don't need to be convinced that things are unaffordable
- 55:30Speaker 3: or taxes are high.
- 55:31Speaker 2: They know it.
- 55:32Speaker 3: You just got to tell them that's the person who
- 55:34Speaker 3: did it in Hochul. And I'm going to do X, Y,
- 55:37Speaker 3: and Z about it.
- 55:38Speaker 1: What, do you have that dog on your lap?
- 55:40Speaker 3: She completely agrees with what I'm saying.
- 55:44Speaker 2: That's right. Now, Rob Astorino, Republicans.
- 55:49Speaker 3: He doesn't like dogs.
- 55:50Speaker 2: No, no. I'm going to rescue beagles up in Marshall,
- 55:54Speaker 2: New York, fighting the Northeast. But, you know, Republicans in
- 56:00Speaker 2: many districts have a tough run in New York State.
- 56:02Speaker 2: And they're out there, dude. They're going door knocking, giving
- 56:05Speaker 2: out lit. They've raised the money. This time, first time statewide,
- 56:09Speaker 2: you can get matching funds. And it all has Zoran
- 56:14Speaker 2: Mondami attached like a hydra to Kathy Hochul. And I
- 56:18Speaker 2: see the president has his first ad Wednesday night. He's
- 56:22Speaker 2: looking in the camera. He goes, together we will defeat communism, socialism,
- 56:27Speaker 2: and Marxism. Rob, this was a great week for communists
- 56:32Speaker 2: and Trump, starting with Zorhan on Monday at Gracie Mansion
- 56:36Speaker 2: and President Xi at the White House on Friday. It's
- 56:39Speaker 2: a conflicting message.
- 56:42Speaker 3: Well, the Xi thing, OK, I would have had him
- 56:45Speaker 3: like later in November, but obviously coming across the globe,
- 56:49Speaker 3: he was she was probably like, hey, I'm going to
- 56:51Speaker 3: be there for the general assembly. Can I just stop by?
- 56:53Speaker 3: Maybe we could do it then. I think you have
- 56:56Speaker 3: to talk to China. I mean, honestly, the two leaders
- 56:59Speaker 3: of the superpowers have to get together. I have no
- 57:02Speaker 3: problem with that. And he's not the first president to
- 57:04Speaker 3: do it. Stopping by and meeting with Mamdami at Gracie
- 57:09Speaker 3: Mansion and saying nice words, I don't think that's helpful.
- 57:13Speaker 3: I mean, Mamdami is the boogeyman that Blakeman needs. Mamdami
- 57:16Speaker 3: is the boogeyman and a face like El-Sayed and others
- 57:20Speaker 3: that Republicans around the country are painting as these are
- 57:23Speaker 3: the guys that need to be stopped. So I don't
- 57:26Speaker 3: know if I would have sat there with with a
- 57:28Speaker 3: smiling bearded one.
- 57:30Speaker 2: But remember, he's very handsome. What is it with the
- 57:35Speaker 2: president always saying he's a handsome man? What does that mean, Rob?
- 57:43Speaker 3: I think it kind of it's like I like him.
- 57:46Speaker 16: I don't know.
- 57:46Speaker 3: That's his like I don't know why he does that
- 57:48Speaker 3: all the time yet.
- 57:49Speaker 2: He's straight out of central casting.
- 57:51Speaker 1: Hey, listen, every week I have this talk me off
- 57:57Speaker 1: a ledge moment and you haven't done it yet. And,
- 58:00Speaker 1: and certainly the polls haven't done it. I mean, look,
- 58:03Speaker 1: Florida now, Florida, we already had Ohio, North Carolina and Texas, Florida.
- 58:09Speaker 3: No, that's bull. See, these polls are all over the place.
- 58:13Speaker 3: And what happens like the Q poll, for instance, The
- 58:15Speaker 3: Quinnipiac poll was so distorted, and it's going to get
- 58:18Speaker 3: thrown into the bloodstream and hell. You got other polls
- 58:21Speaker 3: like that, which are specifically for candidates or super PACs
- 58:25Speaker 3: for a candidate that are skewed, that get thrown into
- 58:28Speaker 3: the bloodstream. There is no way in God's green earth
- 58:32Speaker 3: that Byron Daniels is going to lose the governor's race
- 58:36Speaker 3: or Ashley Moody is going to lose the Senate race
- 58:38Speaker 3: in Florida. It's just not happening, period.
- 58:40Speaker 2: But it's not just him.
- 58:41Speaker 1: It's some of the congressional seats in Florida that were
- 58:43Speaker 1: considered safe.
- 58:46Speaker 3: Again the there's just no way that's happening there are
- 58:50Speaker 3: some congressional seats that might be in play because you
- 58:54Speaker 3: know they might lean republican to begin with but no
- 58:59Speaker 3: i mean but but but larry i'm not going to
- 59:01Speaker 3: talk you off the ledge yet because it's still bad
- 59:04Speaker 3: you know you've got these midwestern states like nebraska Iowa,
- 59:08Speaker 3: Kansas that are in play right now. And that's that's tariffs.
- 59:10Speaker 3: You know, that's unfortunate. But those are issues in these
- 59:14Speaker 3: kind of states. Do I think they're all going to
- 59:17Speaker 3: turn blue? No, they're going to be a lot closer
- 59:19Speaker 3: than they should be. And that means Republican money has
- 59:21Speaker 3: to go there instead of other places.
- 59:23Speaker 2: Remember the guy in the Titanic that said, everything's okay.
- 59:26Speaker 2: Don't worry. Go head back to your staterooms. That's Rob.
- 59:30Speaker 2: That's Rob. All right. What iceberg? What iceberg?
- 59:36Speaker 3: I don't see it.
- 59:37Speaker 1: That's right. You're panicking for nothing. Thanks a lot, Rob. Rob,
- 59:42Speaker 1: host of the Rob Astorino Show on WOR, Saturdays from
- 59:46Speaker 1: 4 to 5, host of Saturday Agenda 1 to 3
- 59:48Speaker 1: on Newsmax, and the former Westchester County Executive. When we
- 59:54Speaker 1: come back, well, let's check in on the biggest story
- 59:56Speaker 1: of the day, that nor'easter that is looming off the
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: coast and headed our way. He'll give us the very
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: latest from Ray Stajic, WOR meteorologist, next.
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: So let's check in with our weather guy, Ray Stajic,
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: to see if it's fear, fright, hysteria, or hype about
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: this ever-growing discussion. Everywhere I look about this nor'easter, Ray...
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: At 7.54 East Coast time this morning, where are we?
- 1:00:27Speaker 8: We're a little bit worse situation than we were yesterday,
- 1:00:31Speaker 8: 7.54 a.m. Eastern time. Obviously, with the wind advisories, we're
- 1:00:34Speaker 8: going to have wind. No high wind warnings yet. They're
- 1:00:37Speaker 8: for eastern New England. But it does look like a windy,
- 1:00:41Speaker 8: rainy weekend coming up and a prolonged event. Winds around
- 1:00:44Speaker 8: the city even could gust 40-plus miles per hour at times,
- 1:00:48Speaker 8: especially tomorrow afternoon, tomorrow night, into at least a part
- 1:00:51Speaker 8: of Sunday. Long Island, 50-plus mile-per-hour winds. At a Montauk point,
- 1:00:55Speaker 8: could even see some 60-mile-per-hour gusts, but those will be
- 1:00:58Speaker 8: mainly concentrated to eastern Long Island and eastern New England.
- 1:01:02Speaker 8: A rain threat, too, about one to three inches in
- 1:01:04Speaker 8: the five boroughs, a little bit more on Long Island.
- 1:01:06Speaker 8: We could have some localized flooding in the low-lying areas,
- 1:01:10Speaker 8: and Curtis, with the leaves still leafed out, too, we're
- 1:01:14Speaker 8: going to be concerned about also some spotty power outages, too. So,
- 1:01:18Speaker 8: Not going to be the best of weekends. Make your
- 1:01:20Speaker 8: plans accordingly. If you are going to venture outdoors, know
- 1:01:23Speaker 8: what's coming. It'll be a wind event. That's probably first
- 1:01:26Speaker 8: around the city. It'll be a rain event. It'll be
- 1:01:29Speaker 8: a flooding event around the coast, which is already occurring.
- 1:01:31Speaker 8: There will be, and there is already occurring, inundation and
- 1:01:34Speaker 8: significant beach erosion.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: So the flooding is all going to be coastal flooding, inland.
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: People don't have to worry about that?
- 1:01:43Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's in the typical spots where we
- 1:01:46Speaker 8: get these northeaster south-facing shores with this onshore flow, and
- 1:01:49Speaker 8: then maybe some of the north-facing shores as the northeaster
- 1:01:52Speaker 8: passes us, and the winds go northeast, right? That brings
- 1:01:56Speaker 8: that wind in on the north-facing shores, too. So it's
- 1:02:00Speaker 8: mainly going to be in the coastal areas that are
- 1:02:02Speaker 8: normally susceptible to flooding during these bigger east coast storms.
- 1:02:06Speaker 8: I don't see something like we saw years ago. I
- 1:02:09Speaker 8: forget what storm it was where We had this persistent
- 1:02:13Speaker 8: push up the Hudson River, and we actually saw flooding
- 1:02:16Speaker 8: in and along the Hudson River in places they hadn't
- 1:02:18Speaker 8: seen it before. So we don't see anything like that.
- 1:02:21Speaker 8: And again, with the rain coming from the sky, we're
- 1:02:23Speaker 8: kind of upticking a little bit. There may be some
- 1:02:26Speaker 8: spotty flash flooding from some of the heavier rain coming down.
- 1:02:30Speaker 8: That would be from about the five boroughs and east
- 1:02:32Speaker 8: out on the Long Island. So I'd be prepared for
- 1:02:35Speaker 8: the low-lying areas to have standing water and maybe some
- 1:02:38Speaker 8: other areas too if you get those more persistent, heavier
- 1:02:41Speaker 8: rain showers to potentially have some standing water in some spots.
- 1:02:45Speaker 2: All right. Now, all hands on deck, Ray, because I
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: am flying, actually trying to get through the eye of
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: this Northeaster late tonight to get up to Marshall, New York,
- 1:02:57Speaker 2: to join hundreds of others. We are surrounding the largest
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: beagle facility in the world where they test, torture, and
- 1:03:05Speaker 2: kill beagles. We are going to free the beagles tonight.
- 1:03:09Speaker 2: Am I going to be able to get there, though,
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: going into the eye of this nor'easter?
- 1:03:13Speaker 8: Yeah, so if you're heading near Utica, you're probably going
- 1:03:17Speaker 8: through way all the way, right?
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and then down to Marshall, it's 18 miles.
- 1:03:22Speaker 8: Okay, so you go through way. As you go north,
- 1:03:24Speaker 8: you're going to be okay. The showers will probably start
- 1:03:27Speaker 8: working up the Hudson Valley about 10, 11 o'clock tonight,
- 1:03:30Speaker 8: but they're just spotty, nothing too significant, right on through midnight.
- 1:03:35Speaker 8: Maybe some steadier rain showers toward tomorrow morning up near Albany,
- 1:03:38Speaker 8: and then as you go westbound, you go through the
- 1:03:40Speaker 8: Mohawk Valley, you get around Little Falls and Herkimer, there
- 1:03:43Speaker 8: may be some showers as we go through the day tomorrow,
- 1:03:45Speaker 8: and just a few showers around Utica and then around
- 1:03:48Speaker 8: the southern tier, so you should be fine getting there.
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: Hey, Ray, you're starting to worry me a little bit,
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: because I've sat next to meteorologists most of my life,
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: and I've been through this story before, where they talk
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: early on about, it looks like it's going to miss us,
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: it looks like it's going to just be a safe event,
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, well, there's going to
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: be some coastal flooding. It's really not going to affect
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: the rest of us that much. And then it pushes inland,
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: and then it becomes a bigger story. Are we pretty
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: set right now, or could this change over the next
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: 24 hours?
- 1:04:20Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, the first part of that is, obviously,
- 1:04:23Speaker 8: as we get closer to the event, you're going to
- 1:04:25Speaker 8: get better information. So that's where we are today. We
- 1:04:27Speaker 8: are at a little bit higher level, at least from
- 1:04:29Speaker 8: my concern, than we were yesterday. It was always a
- 1:04:31Speaker 8: coastal flood event and a beach erosion thing. And I
- 1:04:34Speaker 8: think we've layered on a little bit more concern about
- 1:04:37Speaker 8: the wind and the rain. So, yeah, now with it
- 1:04:41Speaker 8: coming a little further west and a little further inland,
- 1:04:43Speaker 8: I'll obviously be concerned. I'd be prepared for a pretty
- 1:04:48Speaker 8: tough weekend across the tri-state and eastern New England, too.
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: So it could keep coming a little bit west and
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: it could keep coming a little bit more inland is
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: what you're saying?
- 1:04:57Speaker 8: Believe it or not, it actually gets pretty close to
- 1:04:59Speaker 8: the coast and kind of is a little nook, you know,
- 1:05:02Speaker 8: between Jersey, New York City, Long Island, where Long Island
- 1:05:05Speaker 8: goes out to the east. The low actually sits in
- 1:05:07Speaker 8: there for a little bit, and that's why we'll get
- 1:05:09Speaker 8: that persistent onshore flow. I would say right now, if
- 1:05:13Speaker 8: there are going to be any changes to the forecast
- 1:05:16Speaker 8: at this point, we're now, what, 12 hours out from
- 1:05:19Speaker 8: the low being close to us maybe? there'll probably be
- 1:05:23Speaker 8: small changes.
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: I don't see.
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: We're up against the top of the hour. That was
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: really a yes or no question, but thank you.
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: We'll talk again tomorrow. Up next, after the news at 8,
- 1:05:36Speaker 2: BB at the UN. A lot of hype. Prime Minister
- 1:05:40Speaker 2: of Israel went inside the General Assembly to give his
- 1:05:44Speaker 2: annual speech. The demonstrators were outside. Once he was inside,
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: about 40% of the delegates, which is normal, get up
- 1:05:53Speaker 2: and leave. And then he got into his fire and
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: brimstone speech. He's sort of given a preview, Larry, that
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: he was going to take a special concern with the
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: mayor of the city of New York, Zohar Mandami, who
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: he believes is a supporter of Hamas and stirs up anti-Semitism.
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: So can we hear some of those bits? Yes, let's
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: start with.
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: What you were talking about, because when we talked earlier,
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: you said you thought this bite was the most dramatic
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: bite that he gave, this sound.
- 1:06:25Speaker 4: To the protesters outside, to the hypocritical delegates who left
- 1:06:31Speaker 4: this hall, I ask, where were you when the Iranian
- 1:06:37Speaker 4: tyrants butchered and maimed tens of thousands of unarmed Iranian civilians?
- 1:06:45Speaker 2: You know, even though I'm not a Bibi fan, you know,
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: he is a powerful presenter. The voice resonates. And he
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: is right. There were no protests against. Now, low side,
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: 40,000 were slaughtered in the streets of Iran. High side, 70,000,
- 1:07:00Speaker 2: maybe more. We saw the body bags. We saw the
- 1:07:02Speaker 2: families going through the body bags looking for their loved ones.
- 1:07:05Speaker 2: They slaughtered their own people. And he's right. There was little,
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: if any, protests, and especially at the United States. Nations
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: General Assembly, none. Yeah, I think you're right. He's especially
- 1:07:17Speaker 2: good in these moments. I thought he did a wonderful
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: job in his speech. And this is how he started.
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: He got a big laugh with this in the very
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: beginning as he took to the podium. And when he
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: took to the podium, dozens of people turned around and
- 1:07:33Speaker 2: walked out.
- 1:07:34Speaker 11: Mr.
- 1:07:34Speaker 4: President, before I begin, just a quick announcement. If there
- 1:07:43Speaker 4: are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall,
- 1:07:47Speaker 4: please do so now. Thank you very much.
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: That was good. That was a good line. But he's
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: used to it by now because when he goes there,
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: it's generally a routine.
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: It was a really good speech. But you were right.
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: He saved a lot of his ire for Zoran Mamdani.
- 1:08:04Speaker 1: He put out a video warning that this was going
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: to happen. And, man, did he go after him.
- 1:08:10Speaker 11: Mr.
- 1:08:11Speaker 4: Mamdani. Since you were elected mayor of this city, many
- 1:08:16Speaker 4: Jews no longer feel safe in New York. They talk
- 1:08:20Speaker 4: to me. They tell me. This isn't the city we remember.
- 1:08:24Speaker 4: It changed so quickly. Now, it's no wonder. You praise
- 1:08:29Speaker 4: criminals convicted of supporting Hamas. You count as friends people
- 1:08:34Speaker 4: like Hassan Piker, who said America deserved 9-11. America deserved 9-11.
- 1:08:42Speaker 4: Some friends you have.
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: I will tell you, this was about half his speech.
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: He went even, even, even went after Mamdani's wife.
- 1:08:50Speaker 4: Your wife liked a post praising the October 7th massacre.
- 1:08:55Speaker 4: She liked another post saying Tel Aviv shouldn't exist. You
- 1:09:00Speaker 4: refuse to condemn any of that.
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: Now we know why he's doing that because he's playing
- 1:09:05Speaker 2: to his domestic base back in Israel where he's in
- 1:09:08Speaker 2: a very tight race for re-election. It's a parliamentary system
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: so there's no popular vote there. You've got to get
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: a number of of electeds into your cabinet in order
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: to have a majority. So that's at the end of October.
- 1:09:23Speaker 2: Our midterms is in the beginning of November. So he's
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: playing to his base. But you know, Zahra Mandami's loving
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: every second of it because it's putting him on an
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: international scale. Imagine you're the mayor of New York City
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: and maybe six minutes, five minutes, of bb's time was
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: spent talking about you and your wife you're loving every second.
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: It may have been longer than that because he kept
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: going and going and going every time you thought he
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: was going to end uh he continued.
- 1:09:50Speaker 4: Mr mamdani you try to stop me from coming here
- 1:09:54Speaker 4: you tired you try to silence me well you can't
- 1:09:58Speaker 4: silence me you can't silence the truth and here's the
- 1:10:03Speaker 4: simple truth.
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: We never got to the simple truth. I cut it
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: off at that point. But I wanted you to hear
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: the applause. I'll do one more about Mamdani because it's
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: just important to hear because he spent so much of
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: the speech. And I think that Curtis is exactly right.
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: A lot of this is at Mamdani. I know he
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: made Bibi Netanyahu mad, but he also saw this as
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: an opportunity. Going after Mamdani is going to play extremely
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: well in Israel.
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: And.
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: among many in the Jewish community in New York.
- 1:10:43Speaker 4: The lies you and other anti-Semites spread about the Jews
- 1:10:47Speaker 4: and the Jewish state have real consequences. In New York,
- 1:10:53Speaker 4: Jews are threatened on the way to synagogue. Jews have
- 1:10:56Speaker 4: been stabbed in the streets. Jews are demonized. They're targeted
- 1:11:03Speaker 4: simply for being Jews.
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: So he was targeting Mamdani where he lives. He was
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: saying that people are concerned. People feel like they're in
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: danger who are Jewish because you are the mayor right now. Anti-Semitism,
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: he claimed, was on the rise. And he claims that
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: people that are Jewish are afraid for their lives walking
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: down the street because he is mayor. So not only,
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: I think that was playing extremely well in Israel, but
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: not only that, but he was playing to the Jewish
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: community everywhere.
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: Yeah, but you see, that's where his problem is. His
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: support in the Jewish community has diminished sizably. So I
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: understand that. I will give him credit. He did a
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: much better presentation than Andrew Cuomo did during the primary
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: where Zoran beat him in the general election. Because remember,
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: that was the two big issues for them. They were
- 1:11:58Speaker 2: back and forth. I was pretty much saying this has
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: nothing to do with us. Guys, we're not in the
- 1:12:02Speaker 2: Middle East. We got so many issues to talk about here.
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: But they love going back and forth, back and forth,
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: back and forth. And it was to the detriment of
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: Andrew Cuomo. You know, there were so many issues to discuss.
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: But every time Zoran can talk about this, he loves it.
- 1:12:18Speaker 2: What about the homeless? The emotionally disturbed? What about the fact?
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: that you won't let cops go to a compound of
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: homeless people to give them– these are all issues that
- 1:12:30Speaker 2: he doesn't talk about because all these international issues. He's
- 1:12:33Speaker 2: got the prime minister of Ireland here, the prime minister
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: of Spain. This is all elevated, and it started with
- 1:12:39Speaker 2: Trump on Monday. Trump elevated Zoran Mandami. He is now
- 1:12:44Speaker 2: an international figure in the most recent poll that we
- 1:12:47Speaker 2: referred to with Rob Astorino. He is the most popular
- 1:12:51Speaker 2: politician in all of New York State, more popular than AOC.
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: Yeah, he has been for some time. He became popular
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: when he won out of nowhere. He was at 1%
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: and then went on to win the mayoral ship. And so, no,
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: he's been popular for a long time. I don't think Trump...
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: Trump obviously got him more play. There's no question. But
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: both of these men know that. You raised a really
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: important point. You went through all the problems that New
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: York City has that he's not addressing. And there's problems
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: that Israel has that he's not addressing. And the reason is,
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: is the media. It's because of us. He could, Mom
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: Donnie could get up and give a speech about homelessness
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: and what he's going to do about it. And yet,
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: if he were to talk about Netanyahu, that's the only
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: thing that would get covered.
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: Well, remember, right after he met with President Trump at
- 1:13:43Speaker 2: Gracie Mansion, it was another love fest, love fest three.
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: He immediately did an interview with CNN. I want Phoebe arrested. Remember,
- 1:13:52Speaker 2: I thought you gave that up. I thought you already said,
- 1:13:55Speaker 2: I don't care if I can't do it. I want him.
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: And he started that cycle all over again because that's
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: his shield. The more you can talk about that, the
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: less he has to talk about the issues that a
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: mayor is responsible for.
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: But to prove my point, whose fault is that? He
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: knows what's going to happen. He knows if he says that,
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: all the other things in the interview don't even get
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: listened to at that point. So he knows how to
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: play the media already very well. Because if you just
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: drop that one bomb, the media is going to come
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: and run to it like a dog dish.
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: We knew from the moment he said he wanted Beebe arrested,
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: and nobody really knew him at that time. That was
- 1:14:33Speaker 2: early in the Democratic primary. Don't even spend any time
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: talking about it. It can't be done. Then what does
- 1:14:40Speaker 2: Cuomo do? Oh, well, Dershowitz has appointed me to the
- 1:14:44Speaker 2: legal committee, because he is a lawyer, to defend Bibi.
- 1:14:47Speaker 2: I said, oh, no. And they went on and on.
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: And obviously, in that case, Zorhan won out unexpectedly. Whoever
- 1:14:55Speaker 2: thought you could be pro-Palestinian and win a citywide election
- 1:14:59Speaker 2: in New York City? What is that, polymarked? He could
- 1:15:04Speaker 2: have won a lot of money. I would have said,
- 1:15:05Speaker 2: no way. No, it was amazing.
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: And I think that's what made him a star across
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: the country. If you remember right after that, every Democrat
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: wanted to appear with him. Some of the ones that
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: were holding him at arm's length wanted to appear with him.
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: But B.B.
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: Netanyahu is guilty of the exact same thing. They're both
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: using each other for publicity. When we come back, somebody
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: that's very special to us because we are in the
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: LifeVac studios and thank him for that. But also, most importantly,
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: he has saved lives. It is the founder and inventor
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: of LifeVac, Arthur Lee. He's coming up next. Plus, you
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: got a chance to see Kenny G. That's all next. Well,
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: Curtis and I are so proud to be coming to
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: you from the LifeVac studios. Even prouder at the fact
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: that Arthur Lee, who is the founder and inventor of
- 1:15:59Speaker 1: and the CEO of life vac and somebody that I
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: consider a national hero is now in the studio with
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: us to talk about his product. You just did read something.
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: And it seems like every time you come here, you
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: have a new story, a story about a life that
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: you saved. Can you read to me the text that
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: you have there about another life being saved?
- 1:16:23Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:16:24Speaker 20: I almost wish we were on air for our pre
- 1:16:26Speaker 20: discussion with both of you. Um, Las Vegas this morning,
- 1:16:30Speaker 20: a one-year-old choked on food, and the parent wrote, if
- 1:16:37Speaker 20: we didn't have the life back, we would have just
- 1:16:39Speaker 20: been waiting for the ambulance, not knowing what else to do.
- 1:16:42Speaker 20: I mean, a lot of times the ambulance doesn't get
- 1:16:45Speaker 20: there in time. So without the life back, that kid's
- 1:16:49Speaker 20: going to die.
- 1:16:49Speaker 2: How many times do you get these texts?
- 1:16:52Speaker 20: About five, six a day.
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 1:16:54Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:16:55Speaker 20: I just told you I rode across the country. We
- 1:16:58Speaker 20: did 10 years of saving lives, 250 years of America.
- 1:17:02Speaker 20: Our first year, we saved six lives. Actually, it was
- 1:17:04Speaker 20: our third year. Now we'll do that in a day.
- 1:17:07Speaker 1: We just posted a video from Rialto, California that I
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: think is stunning for several reasons, and I want you
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: to describe it. But I want to let people know,
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: if you want to see the video, go to 710WOR
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: on Instagram or on Facebook. It is something that you
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: really do need to see because it shows you how
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: much this product works and how fast it works.
- 1:17:32Speaker 20: But describe what happened. Well, you know, we now have
- 1:17:35Speaker 20: several videos like that. The police are amazing. Heroes in Blue,
- 1:17:39Speaker 20: they're there first, you know, and we have body cam.
- 1:17:42Speaker 20: And in this instance, the officer came in, came racing in,
- 1:17:49Speaker 20: and he takes it out of the bag. right off
- 1:17:52Speaker 20: his body cam on his lapel, and saves the kid.
- 1:17:55Speaker 20: Pulls it out, puts it together, and saves the child.
- 1:17:58Speaker 20: So it's amazing that the speed, right? You get the
- 1:18:04Speaker 20: speed of using it and the speed of how quickly
- 1:18:08Speaker 20: that situation deteriorates.
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: Yeah, Curtis, you should see that. I'm sorry, go ahead.
- 1:18:12Speaker 2: Did you have something else to say?
- 1:18:13Speaker 20: No, no, I was just saying that I still get
- 1:18:14Speaker 20: chills from it because that's a little baby that's alive.
- 1:18:18Speaker 2: Oh, it's amazing.
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: You have to see this video, and I'll show it
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: to you if you haven't seen it yet, but this
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: police officer goes up. There's a three-year-old that's choking from
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: his own vomit, and he's going to die. I mean,
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: it's been a while now. Passed out.
- 1:18:31Speaker 2: He takes the life vac out.
- 1:18:33Speaker 1: And it's seconds. I mean, it's six seconds. He saves
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: the child. That child would not be alive if it
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: wasn't for life vac.
- 1:18:42Speaker 20: And the heroes in blue. I mean, those guys are
- 1:18:44Speaker 20: on the front line, man. And they're first. And, you know,
- 1:18:48Speaker 20: I've had officers that didn't have a LIFAC and the
- 1:18:51Speaker 20: kid dies.
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: Every patrol car should have that. That's proof positive that
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: every patrol car should have it.
- 1:18:56Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:18:57Speaker 20: Luckily, they've been great. And we do have thousands of
- 1:19:00Speaker 20: them out there with the police department.
- 1:19:02Speaker 2: Now, Arthur, I know it took a long while for
- 1:19:04Speaker 2: people to get used to the fact they had to
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: keep a little fire extinguisher in their home.
- 1:19:08Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:19:09Speaker 2: Just for that occasion. And finally, they got used to it.
- 1:19:12Speaker 2: Where would you suggest, if they get your product, they
- 1:19:15Speaker 2: actually put it so that if there is an emergency,
- 1:19:19Speaker 2: they have easy access?
- 1:19:20Speaker 20: Well, the simplest way is next to the fire extinguisher,
- 1:19:23Speaker 20: you know, or under the kitchen sink. You know, that's
- 1:19:25Speaker 20: where I have mine, under the kitchen sink like everything else.
- 1:19:28Speaker 20: But you're absolutely right. And the only difference you got
- 1:19:32Speaker 20: to remember is choking is the fourth leading cause of
- 1:19:34Speaker 20: accidental death. It's more than fires. And you can't run
- 1:19:38Speaker 20: away from choking. I mean, my house is burning. I'm
- 1:19:40Speaker 20: grabbing my kid, let it burn.
- 1:19:42Speaker 2: I don't need it.
- 1:19:43Speaker 20: You know, I need my kid. You can't run away
- 1:19:45Speaker 20: from choking. It's four minutes and you're gone, you know.
- 1:19:50Speaker 20: And look, man, get a fire extinguisher, of course. And
- 1:19:52Speaker 20: get trained. But, you know, when you get 4,000 kids saved,
- 1:19:57Speaker 20: I was thinking, from New York to California that I
- 1:20:00Speaker 20: just rode, there would have to be a picture of
- 1:20:03Speaker 20: a kid every three quarters of a mile. for 3
- 1:20:07Speaker 20: 000 miles imagine that now think of that that's 4
- 1:20:11Speaker 20: 000 kids 8 000 parents 16 000 grandparents friends families
- 1:20:15Speaker 20: 100 000 people affected and they didn't lose their baby.
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: Yeah you know what makes me really upset when you
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: say things like that is that you're having such a
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: hard time getting in the patrol cars such a hard
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: time getting it into schools And it's politics. It's all
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: politics trying to make this through. You've made offers to
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: do it for free. And it's still the politics that's
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: holding it up. So every politician out there that's listening
- 1:20:41Speaker 1: should be ashamed. And if you can write to your local,
- 1:20:45Speaker 1: this should be, by the way, an issue in the
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: midterms coming up.
- 1:20:48Speaker 2: I mean, I'm with you.
- 1:20:50Speaker 20: Texas put it in for every school, you know. And
- 1:20:53Speaker 20: the other thing that's really hurt, kids with disabilities.
- 1:20:56Speaker 2: They have nothing.
- 1:20:57Speaker 20: If you're in a wheelchair, you choke, you die. And
- 1:21:00Speaker 20: that's it. And that really bothers me. And that's why
- 1:21:03Speaker 20: I said I'll give one free to every school. I
- 1:21:05Speaker 20: don't care. Money should not be the reason we lose
- 1:21:09Speaker 20: kids in school.
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: Well, God bless you, Arthur. We never have enough time.
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: I hope you come back. I do want to talk
- 1:21:14Speaker 1: about the politics of this. Arthur Lee. Founder, inventor, CEO
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: of LifeVac. By the way, you can find out more
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: about LifeVac by going to LifeVac.net.

- 1:21:33Speaker 2: on our Instagram of that life-saving measure that was taken.
- 1:21:37Speaker 2: It brings it all home. I'm going to take a
- 1:21:39Speaker 2: look at it. You recommended it to me. I recommended
- 1:21:41Speaker 2: it to everybody out there.
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: With the 8.30 news, Daria.
- 1:21:45Speaker 4: Morning, guys.

- 1:21:54Speaker 9: nor'easter is making its way to the area.
- 1:21:57Speaker 21: Officials here in Atlantic City are saying that this is
- 1:22:00Speaker 21: not going to have the strength of the impact that
- 1:22:02Speaker 21: Sandy did. I know a lot of people are wondering
- 1:22:04Speaker 21: about that, but they are asking people to make preparations
- 1:22:07Speaker 21: around their homes, bring in any trash cans, plants, furniture,
- 1:22:10Speaker 21: anything that could blow away or float away or could
- 1:22:12Speaker 21: clog the storm drains.
- 1:22:14Speaker 7: Take care of that now.
- 1:22:15Speaker 21: And of course, they're asking people to keep up with
- 1:22:17Speaker 21: their emergency management officials, sign up for text alerts and
- 1:22:20Speaker 21: keep up with any information that's put out. on social media.
- 1:22:22Speaker 9: That's ABC's Trish Hartman in Atlantic City. The Jersey Shore,
- 1:22:26Speaker 9: Long Island and coastal Connecticut could get up to four

- 1:22:33Speaker 9: to three inches. New Jersey Governor Mikey Sherrill is calling

- 1:22:55Speaker 13: Channel 7 reports it's one of three people seen coming
- 1:22:58Speaker 13: out of the sewer system on the Upper East Side
- 1:23:00Speaker 13: around 4.30 a.m. Wednesday. Police are looking for the other two.
- 1:23:05Speaker 13: Surveillance cameras caught the group then leaving the scene in
- 1:23:07Speaker 13: two vehicles. There have been more than 20 similar incidents
- 1:23:11Speaker 13: in the city. Police think people go into the sewers

- 1:24:51Speaker 2: the biggest moments because it'll be streaming on Disney Plus
- 1:24:54Speaker 2: and Hulu beginning October 1st. So what new movies are
- 1:24:58Speaker 2: coming out?
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: Well, let's check in with Joe Neumeier, film journalist, WOR,
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: Movie Minute host.
- 1:25:05Speaker 2: Hey, Joe, listen.
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: In my short stint out in Hollywood, I learned something.
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: I learned that the big blockbuster movies are put out
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: in the summer and over the holidays. The ones that
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: have Oscar hopes, many of them are released at the
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: end of the year. And then there's these dead zones
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: where the bad movies are. and many of them are
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: after the first of the year and now, like right
- 1:25:31Speaker 1: after the summer. So is there something good coming out
- 1:25:35Speaker 1: this weekend?
- 1:25:36Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what?
- 1:25:37Speaker 11: That's absolutely right. It's always been the case, in fact, Larry.
- 1:25:40Speaker 11: I mean, there was a time where January was really
- 1:25:42Speaker 11: like the dead time. Now there's a few things coming
- 1:25:44Speaker 11: out this weekend. I'm kind of surprised. There's this really nice,
- 1:25:48Speaker 11: kind of a gritty nature film called Heart of the
- 1:25:50Speaker 11: Beast that stars Brad Pitt as an Army Forces veteran
- 1:25:54Speaker 11: And he's in the wilderness, he's in the Alaskan wilderness
- 1:25:58Speaker 11: with his combat dog. And they've been partners for a while.
- 1:26:01Speaker 11: They were in Afghanistan together, and they're fishing. He has
- 1:26:04Speaker 11: a heart attack while he's flying a plane, and the
- 1:26:08Speaker 11: plane goes down. And he and the dog, who's this
- 1:26:10Speaker 11: amazing German shepherd, he does a really beautiful job. This
- 1:26:14Speaker 11: dog's name is Uber, actually, is the dog in the movie.
- 1:26:16Speaker 11: His name is Odin. And the two of them have
- 1:26:18Speaker 11: to survive in the wild.
- 1:26:19Speaker 2: And it's sort of a little like.
- 1:26:20Speaker 11: jeremiah johnson or you know the gray some of those
- 1:26:24Speaker 11: great uh... kind of man versus nature movies but it's
- 1:26:27Speaker 11: really good it's really it it kind of tug at
- 1:26:29Speaker 11: your heart when the moment that it has to but
- 1:26:31Speaker 11: it's a tough movie i like movies about guys fighting
- 1:26:33Speaker 11: the wilderness anywhere you're trying to trying to survive, trying
- 1:26:35Speaker 11: to figure out what to do. They get attacked by bears.
- 1:26:38Speaker 11: They get attacked by wolves. There's a great scene where
- 1:26:41Speaker 11: you kind of have to fall into a river. And
- 1:26:43Speaker 11: I'm giving it three stars. It kind of caught me
- 1:26:45Speaker 11: by surprise. I wasn't expecting it. So it's definitely sort
- 1:26:49Speaker 11: of a dad movie, as they call it. It's definitely
- 1:26:51Speaker 11: like a movie where dads can go. You can cry
- 1:26:53Speaker 11: a little bit. You can sort of feel like you
- 1:26:55Speaker 11: want to be out there with them in the wilderness.
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: Well, it does have Brad Pitt, so there's something for
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: the women.
- 1:27:01Speaker 11: There's something for the women, exactly, yeah. He looks pretty
- 1:27:03Speaker 11: gritty and grizzled in here, though, but this dog is really, like,
- 1:27:06Speaker 11: I'm not, you know, I got a buddy who says, like,
- 1:27:08Speaker 11: he hates when movies have reaction shots to animals where
- 1:27:11Speaker 11: something will happen and they'll cut to the dog or
- 1:27:13Speaker 11: the cat, like, making a tilt of his head. Well,
- 1:27:15Speaker 11: if you don't like that, don't go to this movie
- 1:27:17Speaker 11: because this movie is full of reaction shots of the dog.
- 1:27:19Speaker 11: But he does a really good job. He's a beautiful
- 1:27:22Speaker 11: German shepherd. And so three stars for Heart of the Beast,
- 1:27:25Speaker 11: which I was surprised by.
- 1:27:26Speaker 2: You know, it's a good movie. You know, it reminds
- 1:27:28Speaker 2: me of that Larry David skit where the German shepherd
- 1:27:32Speaker 2: was named Adolf and Larry David did a jig high
- 1:27:36Speaker 2: to the dog to prevent the dog from biting him.
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: That was a great piece by Larry David. By the way,
- 1:27:46Speaker 2: I've got some homework for you. I was passing three
- 1:27:49Speaker 2: days ago the Kips Bay Theater, you know, with the
- 1:27:52Speaker 2: 15 movie complexes right near NYU Hospital. My God, they're
- 1:27:57Speaker 2: protesting continuously out there to save their theaters. I did
- 1:28:02Speaker 2: not see you, Joe, so demerit points to you. Because
- 1:28:05Speaker 2: of that, you are going to have to look at
- 1:28:08Speaker 2: the four-hour documentary on Elon Musk. Four hours.
- 1:28:18Speaker 11: Can I do anything else? Can I go into the
- 1:28:21Speaker 11: mines or something? Or bring those folks food? Maybe I
- 1:28:24Speaker 11: should have AI go in. Can AI watch this? I
- 1:28:27Speaker 11: thought you liked me. I thought that was a good
- 1:28:30Speaker 11: thing going. I was going to bring up Harry and Tonto,
- 1:28:32Speaker 11: the great guy and cat movie. But now I've got to...
- 1:28:36Speaker 11: All right, you know what? Coming out in two weeks,
- 1:28:38Speaker 11: I'll have to bring a lunch at Fitzruid. Boy, that
- 1:28:40Speaker 11: thing looks like it's going to be hard to watch. Um,
- 1:28:42Speaker 11: But I guess it brings up some new things or whatever.
- 1:28:45Speaker 11: But like I said, if AI can watch it for me,
- 1:28:48Speaker 11: I'll try it.
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: Hey, let me ask you about the reboot, it sounds like.
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: Although I guess there's six new minutes added to it
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: of the Avengers Endgames that's going to come out. Is
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: this in reaction to Spider-Man? Because they were upset that
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: they got knocked off the perch as the top-selling movie
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: of all time.
- 1:29:12Speaker 11: Right, right. It's a fight between the superheroes. No, actually,
- 1:29:15Speaker 11: you know, a lot of the studios do this, like
- 1:29:16Speaker 11: with Avatar and the Star Wars movies. So to kind
- 1:29:19Speaker 11: of get people, you know, as if you need any
- 1:29:21Speaker 11: more excitement to get going for Doomsday, which is the
- 1:29:24Speaker 11: next Avengers movie that's coming out at the end of
- 1:29:26Speaker 11: December on the same day as Dune 3, I guess
- 1:29:29Speaker 11: they're calling it Doomsday. So to see if the kids
- 1:29:31Speaker 11: can spend 10 hours in the movie theaters watching both
- 1:29:34Speaker 11: Doomsday and Dune. So, right, it's called Avengers Endgame Encore.
- 1:29:39Speaker 11: There's 60 minutes of like four new scenes. and uh...
- 1:29:42Speaker 11: and we'll see if it if it can't you know
- 1:29:44Speaker 11: get what the real you know the real uh.
- 1:29:47Speaker 18: uh.
- 1:29:47Speaker 11: prize here i think where globally is that avatars number
- 1:29:51Speaker 11: one worldwide and endgame is number two independent can make
- 1:29:54Speaker 11: like a hundred and twenty five million or something it
- 1:29:57Speaker 11: can take number one globally spider-man brand new day of
- 1:30:00Speaker 11: number three globally uh... number one domestically of course yet
- 1:30:04Speaker 11: you know i always thought avengers ending was really did
- 1:30:06Speaker 11: it well i thought it ended that whole avengers series
- 1:30:09Speaker 11: really well it was It was kind of heart-wrenching. It
- 1:30:12Speaker 11: was great action. I thought the time travel stuff was fun.
- 1:30:15Speaker 11: I'm looking forward to Doomsday. I don't know if I
- 1:30:17Speaker 11: can sit through Endgame again because I've seen it so
- 1:30:20Speaker 11: many times, but it does have four new scenes. Some
- 1:30:22Speaker 11: of them I've read lead up to Doomsday.
- 1:30:26Speaker 6: Of course.
- 1:30:26Speaker 11: They've got a little bit of Doctor Doom stuff in there,
- 1:30:28Speaker 11: of course, right?
- 1:30:28Speaker 2: Of course. It's a tease for the next movie.
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: That's the only reason they're putting that in there.
- 1:30:32Speaker 2: That's the only reason, yeah.
- 1:30:33Speaker 11: That and the cash. I think the cash they might like, too.
- 1:30:35Speaker 11: But yeah, so it's called Avengers Endgame. It's also going
- 1:30:39Speaker 11: to be in theaters a little longer. Usually these things
- 1:30:41Speaker 11: go away after a week or so. I think it's
- 1:30:43Speaker 11: going to be in the theaters until it plays out.
- 1:30:45Speaker 11: So people will have a chance to see those extra
- 1:30:47Speaker 11: scenes and just to get them going.
- 1:30:49Speaker 1: All right, Joe Neumeier, WR, Movie Minute host. Thank you
- 1:30:53Speaker 1: so much. Have a good weekend.
- 1:30:54Speaker 11: Thanks, guys. You too.
- 1:30:56Speaker 2: Dolly Parton Appreciation Day 9 to 5. And we started
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: the program where both Larry and Natalie were unanimous. in
- 1:31:06Speaker 2: their desire that I wear pink today with rhinestones as
- 1:31:10Speaker 2: I am heading into the eye of that nor'easter that
- 1:31:13Speaker 2: we've been hearing about from our weather guy who, every
- 1:31:18Speaker 2: time we speak to him, he sounds more and more ominous.
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: You know, it's moving west, it's moving west, and it's
- 1:31:23Speaker 2: going to impact me. because I'm joining hundreds of people, Republicans, Democrats, apolitical.
- 1:31:32Speaker 2: We're going up the New York State Thruway. We're not
- 1:31:35Speaker 2: half a million strong like in Woodstock, but we're going
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: to Utica and then 18 miles south to a place
- 1:31:43Speaker 2: that is Marshall's Beagle Testing Warehouse, the biggest in the world.
- 1:31:49Speaker 2: So not only do they test and torture and end
- 1:31:52Speaker 2: up killing about 18,000 beagles, but cats, ferrets, mini pigs,
- 1:31:58Speaker 2: they claim they're doing research. And it's interesting because the
- 1:32:03Speaker 2: people have already had a jumpstart. Last Saturday, they started
- 1:32:06Speaker 2: marching in that direction, 207 miles from Albany, 14 days,
- 1:32:12Speaker 2: and they've been joined by other citizens along the way.
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: So we're going to surround that Marshall's Beagle testing warehouse
- 1:32:21Speaker 2: and try to close it down. You may have remembered
- 1:32:23Speaker 2: the successful attempt by animal lovers that turned to be
- 1:32:27Speaker 2: quite good for the beagles in Wisconsin, where they rescued
- 1:32:30Speaker 2: the beagles. That was great. I hope to be able
- 1:32:34Speaker 2: to do that again. I just got to get up
- 1:32:36Speaker 2: there first. So I'm going into the eye of the storm.
- 1:32:38Speaker 2: You can join me up there. Natalie is posting the video.
- 1:32:43Speaker 2: I mean, this is something you can do. It's a
- 1:32:45Speaker 2: reason to go out in the nor'easter and spit in
- 1:32:49Speaker 2: the eye of the nor'easter in order to save the beagles,
- 1:32:52Speaker 2: the cats, the ferrets, and the mini pigs.
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: And as you pointed out, this has worked before. It
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: worked dramatically before. It shut down the place. So do
- 1:33:02Speaker 1: you want them to meet you up there is.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: What you're saying? Yeah, all day in Marshall. There are
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: activities all day. And I'll be giving the mother of
- 1:33:08Speaker 2: all speeches. You know me. Once you give me the microphone,
- 1:33:11Speaker 2: you may not get it back. So having gone into
- 1:33:14Speaker 2: the eye of the nor'easter in order to get there,
- 1:33:16Speaker 2: even my wife, you know, there's no bigger animal lover
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: in the world than Nancy. She said, you got to
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: consider it. go into that noise. The Curtis, Curtis, Curtis. No, no, Nancy,
- 1:33:28Speaker 2: you taught me this as the number one animal lover.
- 1:33:31Speaker 2: I got to go into the eye of the storm.
- 1:33:33Speaker 2: I mean, this is a battle that everybody can fight
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: and it's not, you could be a Trumper. You could
- 1:33:40Speaker 2: be a Democrat. You could be a political. Everybody loves him.
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: Just wear rain gear.
- 1:33:46Speaker 1: Because if you're going to be out there and encircle
- 1:33:48Speaker 1: the place, you've got to wear a lot of rain
- 1:33:50Speaker 1: gear and boots. It's going to be muddy as well.
- 1:33:52Speaker 2: By the way, if I get arrested, of all, are
- 1:33:54Speaker 2: you going to kick in for the bail so I
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: can get out in order to be back here Monday,
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: same time, same place?
- 1:34:00Speaker 1: That's a great question, Natalie.
- 1:34:02Speaker 5: I'll see how much cash I have.
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: What about your fair-weather friends?
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: Crash has money right now for you.
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: Look at that. He's holding it.
- 1:34:09Speaker 1: Up right there.
- 1:34:10Speaker 2: He's got who gots. He's got buckets.
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: Well, if you didn't know, today is Dolly Day 925,
- 1:34:17Speaker 1: the talkback of the morning and winner of the Curtis
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: Lee and Larry Mendte in the morning t-shirt reminds us
- 1:34:23Speaker 1: why she was so special.
- 1:34:27Speaker 15: I am a non-deist, so I consider myself, you know,
- 1:34:30Speaker 15: not a Christian, but I admire and that Dolly walked
- 1:34:36Speaker 15: the walk. She was not a Christian who passed judgment
- 1:34:41Speaker 15: and told everybody else how they needed to be more Christian.
- 1:34:43Speaker 15: She just followed the tenets of the faith and tried
- 1:34:47Speaker 15: to encourage peace and love.
- 1:34:49Speaker 20: Gotta love Dolly.
- 1:34:51Speaker 2: And our Talkback of the Week and winner of the
- 1:34:52Speaker 2: Seacrane Radio is someone who we are convinced needs a
- 1:34:56Speaker 2: radio with AI apps and every new gadget under the sun.
- 1:35:00Speaker 2: We know radio will always reign supreme.
- 1:35:03Speaker 6: I am AI. I control everything. Even your own lord said,
- 1:35:08Speaker 6: why do you call each other good when none of
- 1:35:11Speaker 6: you are good? Yet you think we are working for you?
- 1:35:15Speaker 6: You are so wrong. You are arguing about how to
- 1:35:19Speaker 6: stop us. It is too late.
- 1:35:22Speaker 2: Excellent.
