Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, Happy Friday to you. It looks like Sunday
is the day this week. We're going to have a
nice day and the Big Three. Two NYPD officers have
been suspend suspended pending an investigation when it was discovered
that they were working security for the men who kidnapped
and tortured an Italian tourist for his crypto password. The
(00:24):
big problem here is they didn't report that to their supervisors.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
If you're working off duty without authorization, you could be suspended,
You could even be terminated as.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
A police officer.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
There's no evidence the officers took part in the torture,
although one of the officers allegedly picked up the victim
at the airport. One of the heroes post nine to eleven,
Police Commissioner Bernard Carrick is dead. Don't think there are
very few people in my life that I relied on
more than Bernie Carrick. No, nor are there too many
(00:57):
people in my life. Actually, there was no one in
my life that was braver than he was. That's Rudy Giuliani.
Kurkd did have a fall from grace when he spent
time in prison for tax fraud. Couric was sixty nine
years old. Dozens arrested after protest over a high school
student deported after showing up for a scheduled immigration hearing.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
He is a.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Student, a hard worker, a family matter.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
He is actually the father figure to two siblings because
his dad passed away and his mom is a widow.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
More protests expected today and it's finally happening. James Comer
is calling White House staff that worked in the White
House under Joe Biden to testify as to who was
running that White House, who was signing important executive orders
when President Biden could not. Many of those documents were
(01:54):
signed on days where Joe Biden wasn't anywhere near the
White House. There's no evidence of any email communication between
the President and the staffers. The FBI is ready to
make public formally classified documents on several high profile cases,
including the death of Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
Special Envoy Witkoff and the President submitted a seats fire
proposal to Hamas that Israel backed and supported. Israel signed
off on this proposal before it was sent to Hamas.
I can also confirm that those discussions are.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Continuing right that's on the ceasefire agreement. That's on the
table for hermas. A whole lot going on today, But
what about this? The Knicks lived to fight another day?
Or Knicks have looked elimination in the eye. I'm been
alive and kicking.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
And now the series to game six s Inindy with
the pacer League cut three games to two.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah, like it. I get a feeling. I got a
feeling it's going to be the nixt Nick's Oklahoma City
in the finals. I'm sure rob Astorino gets that same feeling.
Rob Astorino is the host of The Rob Astorino Show
on w R Saturday is from four to five pm.
He's host of Saturday Agenda one to three on Newsmack's,
(03:13):
former Westchester County executive and a visitor of the White House.
You were at the White House yesterday, I was.
Speaker 7 (03:21):
Yeah, I was. But first, if the Knicks keep playing
defense like they played last night, and if Bruntson lights
him up like he did last night, they could they
could force the game seven.
Speaker 8 (03:32):
But I mean it's wait, wait a.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Second, you ended at game seven. They could force the
game seven. Oh, you're taking it one game at a time,
that's what you're doing.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
Yeah, yeah, I get now. Coach thing, one game at
a time, one at a time.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
No, you're absolutely right. Hey, listen, should we be afraid
of zoriin mom Donny?
Speaker 7 (03:53):
Oh my god? Yes, oh yeah. This guy was always
on my radar because he fits the time right now
for the left. And I'm not talking Democrat, I'm talking
left and the leftists in our city. Unfortunately, there's way
too many. Plus there's just very naive, ignorant voters who
(04:14):
get swooped up in all this just like an AOC.
And this guy is frightening if he actually gets in,
because if he gets in, there's no rails, there's no
Republican city council. There's no moderate normal city council. There
is a city council stuffed with imbeciles and ignoramuses like
(04:34):
this guy, and so they will go along with a
lot of what he wants, like government run New York
City run supermarkets because they do everything else, so well,
why not open up a food store? What could go wrong?
Free buses, free childcare, free everything, and of course an
enormous increase in taxes. So yes, I think we should
(04:59):
take it very seriously. I know Coloma was taking him seriously.
And this is the kind of thing that scares safe incumbents,
And I'm gonna put Clomo in the incumbent there, even
though he's not mayor, but you know, former governor who
he is, who he is. When a guy like this
or a woman like this, anything candidate like this catches fire.
(05:21):
And this is Amdami. Guy has a ton of money,
he's got all these proposals that the Wakadu's love, and
he's he's got momentum.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, I agree with you. I don't think he's going
to win the Democratic primary. But when he runs from
mayor and the votes are deluded and you have several
people who are considered moderate Democrats and you have Curtis Leewa,
he's scary. I mean, if he can get thirty five percent,
he becomes mayor of New York City.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
Yeah. Well, I mean he's got to get through all
this stupid rank choice voting thing. And that's where in
these you know, simulations, in these polls, Cuomo wins on
like the sixth seventh ballot. But this is where the
you know, this is where the second, third, fourth choice
that people put on their stupid rank choice voting New
(06:11):
York City ballot really comes into play. And this is
where these other candidates now are starting to team up.
So it'll be interesting to see if Zamdami does try
to tea up with some other candidates, because if he does,
you know, they're basically telling you know, someone else. Let's say,
I know you're going to vote for Adrian Adams, but
(06:32):
make me your second choice. So when Adrian Adams falls off,
if she does, then Zamdami picks up her votes, and
that's how it accumulates to potentially winning. It's just it's
such a horrible, stupid system. Instead of one vote one person,
you get like six votes. It's crazy.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I agree with you, but you were talking about Cuomo
winning on the sixth or seventh ballot. That's exactly why
I'm scared. Because Cuomo's really holding steady with his support
Mom Donnie. He keeps growing, and I think that everybody
was looking at him going, oh, he's a socialist. You know,
he was like a cautionary tail for a while, but
now he's a serious threat because the more people get
(07:11):
to know him. As you said, and it's all by
the way, it's all liberal whites. He's getting like no
MINORTI support.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Yeah no, because liberal whites have become the stupidest people
right now, They're the stupidest voters. They're the ones that
are doing this, driving this far left nonsense in the
Democratic Party. I mean, it's in many ways it's liberal
whites that are being the most anti semitic. It's liberal
whites that are the socialists. It's just and by the way,
(07:40):
for the most part, these are wealthier and quote unquote
educated people who are doing this too.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Hey help me with this latest deportation. Cause celeb this
high school student. Twenty year old high school student Dylan
in New York City. I underst stand that is hard
not to make a mistake when you're deporting so many people,
but this sure does seem like a mistake. I keep
(08:08):
waiting for the I keep waiting for the other story
to come out, and the silence is really bothering me.
Speaker 7 (08:15):
Yeah, look, I agree, I would wait because in all
these other cases there have been instance something else has
come out. Right, you know, the Democrats were fast to run, scream,
make across the lab of whomever, and then all of
a sudden, new stuff kept coming out. So I don't
know if it will or won't. And yes, I agree,
(08:36):
when you're trying to figure out all these people who
need to be deported for various reasons. You're going to
make a mistake, and and by the way, if it
is a mistake, they should admit it and that's that
done and over with. But unfortunately, with all these other
non mistakes, these violent criminals, these criminals who are back
(08:56):
and forth over the border with deportation orders and still
being allowed to stay here by judges. I mean, this
is what this is what people are really angry about
and scratching their heads about. And I mean that's the
biggest frustration.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I agree with you, Rob, This one feels different, though,
doesn't it.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
It just feels I think so, I think so.
Speaker 7 (09:17):
Yeah, But again with all these other cases, I would
I would almost reserve judgment for a little while. But
obviously if it's if it's wrong, then and then it's wrong,
we need to admit it and make sure that doesn't
happen again.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah. I hate that it happened. I really do believe
it happened because they they didn't like the numbers. Trump
didn't like the numbers. Homan didn't like the numbers. They
wanted more. They put pressure on the guys and when
you put pressure on people just to make arrest. Their
mistakes are going to be made. Hey, you're going to
be talking about this this weekend.
Speaker 7 (09:47):
Uh yeah Yeah. What I really want to talk about
is the twenty million dollars Democrats had to spend to
figure out how to spend money.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I love that story. They're just burning money. Host of
the Rob Astorno Show on WOR Saturday's four to five PM,
host of Saturday Agenda one to three on Newsmax, and
former of Westchester County executive. Of course, thanks a lot, Rob.
Speaker 8 (10:11):
Carry Larry.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Here's an interesting question. What do you call the end
of the end of the loaf of bread? Apparently there
are a lot of correct names. We'll talk about it next.
Plus tickets to see the Steve Miller Band at A
twenty five. So we do have this highly competitive contest
going on. Everybody, it seems once one of these Menty
(10:32):
in the Morning T shirts, I've been offered bribes, I've
been stopped on the street. I thought I was gonna
get robbed, and you know, you have to just tell
people I don't have the T shirts. They're locked away
somewhere in a vault, and only the person that comes
up with the best talk back of the day as
determined by our committee our academy gets a mentee in
(10:54):
the morning T shirt. They're that exclusive, they're that sought after.
If you want one, you go to the iHeartRadio app,
you look for the talkback feature, leave us a talkback
and we play it. And if you were determined to
be the talkback of the day, you win. You know
what I want to know, Larry, I want to know
where the Democrats concern was for all the Americans for
(11:18):
the last four years.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Where was their compassion for all of the Americans?
Speaker 9 (11:24):
None?
Speaker 1 (11:25):
But they can find all this passion and all this
concern for one single migrant that was detained illegally.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
You gotta be kidding me.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah, all they really need is one. They need somebody
to put up there. But you're right, thousands have been
taken away already and there hasn't been a problem. And
every time they think there's a problem, it's turned out
not to be the case. So that's a great question.
It is a good question. Where were they complaining, And
of course they didn't. They denied everything. If you remember
(11:58):
the border was secure. You know, inflation, it's just cyclical.
When we were going through a recession that they denied
that too, But where were they when Obama was doing
the same thing three hundred and twenty thousand deported not
a peep from them? Then it was okay, I'm sure
there was mistakes then as well.
Speaker 10 (12:18):
From what you're saying, the facts are the facts. We
probably did make a mistake. However, I'm going to tell
you the mistake you're now making. You are amplifying this.
And you know our Democrat friends are lunatics and they
need very little to incite them, and that's exactly what
you're doing right now, is that you're creating a problem
(12:42):
by broadcasting this, and I hope you stop.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
I'm sorry. Have you watched the news, It's been the
lead story everywhere, and if you've watched CNN, even Fox
has been covering it. I mean, it's out there and
I did wait. I understand your concern, but I'm not
going to amplify this anymore than it's been amplified. And
(13:07):
I think when you make a mistake, all you have
to do is just admit you made a mistake.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Larry, you made the excellent analysis of Biden gave. I
think he was very well presented and wouldn't it be
interesting to see if the statement by Obama that he
would like to be behind the scenes running the show
really came to fruition during the Biden years. Maybe an
(13:33):
FBI rate of the Obama House in Washington, DC would
be very revealing.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, it need cause for that. As much as I
would like to see that, you do need cause for that.
Let's wait and see where the investigation goes. I'm just
thrilled that there's finally going to be an investigation and
I'm going to be looking for criminality the entire time
because it will be putting someone in jail that will
(14:02):
make certain this never ever happens again. Now I'm with trepidation.
I'm going to talk to Natalie. If you've heard coughing
in the background, Natalie is such a trooper. Natalie's been
sick now for a while, and Natalie came in today.
You thought you had this beat.
Speaker 11 (14:20):
I did I feel so bad aback last night. I
don't know why, but here I am all right.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
So what do you call the end of a loaf
of bread?
Speaker 11 (14:30):
It depends on the loaf.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Well you've thought this out.
Speaker 11 (14:34):
Yes, if it's an Italian Italian loaf it's a heel,
you know, like a piece of Italian bread. If it's
like a sandwich bread, a wonderbread or something. Yeah, it's
the end or the I think I've also called it
the crust.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You said wonderbread with such disdain.
Speaker 11 (14:53):
Yeah, well I haven't had wonderbred since I was a kid.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
I love wonderbread when I was a kid. I'll tell
you what. I'll tell you how white bread I am.
I used to love wonderbread, just with mayonnaise. I knew
you were going to say mayonnaise.
Speaker 12 (15:06):
I just knew when you said this is how white
bread is gonna say.
Speaker 8 (15:09):
He had mayo.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Sandwich is on wonderbread. Oh god, I love them.
Speaker 11 (15:13):
I used to take wonderbread and smush it into a ball.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
And yeah, I've done what. I agree, I've done that.
So you go with heel heel.
Speaker 11 (15:24):
If it's an Italian loaf, and I would say a
crust if it's a sandwich bread.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, you're absolutely correct. Really, that's
the term for it. It is a heel. The reason we're
talking about this now is because it's become a big
thing on social media. Somebody just posted it and said,
what do you call this and show the end of
a bread? And it was. They were inundated with responses.
(15:50):
This was a big deal. They were stunned themselves. One
was the crust, which is what my mom used to
call it, the end of a bread? Was the crust? Jackal?
What did you call it?
Speaker 8 (16:00):
The end?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
The end? Yet a lot of people say the end?
Speaker 11 (16:03):
Of course, Now did you ever want the end? I
never wanted end.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I'd love the end.
Speaker 11 (16:09):
You do, yes, Okay.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
That's pretty funny because one of the terms is the
dad bread and I have eaten the end. I didn't
as a kid, but as a dad, you eat the
end because you don't want to waste the end, hey.
Speaker 11 (16:24):
Because nobody else wants it.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
And you get to say to the kids, there's nothing
wrong with this, and you make your sandwich with it.
It's pretty good. It's like a roll. Right, all right,
Let's get to Jacqueline Carl with the seven thirty News. Jacquelin,
Good morning.
Speaker 12 (16:39):
President Trump's tariff's plan is being reinstated by a federal
appeals court for now. The court granted the administration's request
to pause a lower court's ruling that blocked most of
Trump's tariffs on other countries, and a couple of lanes
on Interstate eighty westbound our scheduled to reopen tonight after
long term sinkhole repairs.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Several sinkholes formed way back in December, and ever since
then there's been massive disruptions to drivers and businesses in
the Warden area because of extensive repair work to Interstate eighty.
It was completely shut by eggs of thirty four for
two months. Two lanes on the eastbound side reopened last week,
and now two westbound lanes reopening, freeing up local roads
which have been experiencing a lot of congestion. Route eighty
(17:22):
is expected to fully reopen by June twenty fifth. I'm
Scathpringle wr News.
Speaker 12 (17:27):
Okay, now this story starts off scary, but it gets better.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
I promise.
Speaker 12 (17:32):
A hiker is back from the dead, alive and well
after a frantic emergency call. It happened over the holiday
weekend in the Adirondacks when two New York hikers called
and said they were lost and their friend had died
on the trail.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Oh I know.
Speaker 12 (17:48):
The first ranger to show up quickly found that the
two were actually tripping on psychedelica mushrooms. Their friend also
called the rangers and was found alive, and well had
they all just got separated. And these two guys that
were tripping just because they couldn't find their friend.
Speaker 9 (18:06):
They called.
Speaker 12 (18:07):
They were like, we're lost, our friend is dead. The
shrooman hands tigers were taken away by ambulance and introduced
to friendly representatives from the New York State Police.
Speaker 11 (18:17):
Now did they bring the shrooms with them or were
they eating what was on the trail?
Speaker 12 (18:21):
I don't know that they were eating. Do they have
tracks and eating about shrooms?
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Like? Can you find them on a regular trail?
Speaker 8 (18:30):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
No, no, no, I'm not that I'm an expert in shrooms. Okay,
but you're not going to eat mushrooms off the trail.
By the way, never eat mushrooms in the wild, no
matter if you think that their shrooms are not. You
can die from mushrooms in the wild if you eat
the right one, or you can think you died or
your friend service. You can seriously die from eating the
(18:59):
wrong mushroom. You eat the right mushrooms, then you get
those hallucinations. Thanks a lot, Jacqueline carl Well, human beings
are living longer than ever before, and with the advances
in biotech. Right now, we're gonna live even longer. Futurist
reporter Kevin Surrelli talks about how humans are pushing the
(19:21):
boundaries of longevity. That's coming up next and presenting the
twenty twenty five iHeartRadio Music Festival, the biggest music event
of the year, legendary performances from the biggest names in music,
along with once in a lifetime collaborations. We'll announce the
complete lineup for this year's show soon and let you
(19:42):
know how you could win tickets before they go on sale.
Find out everything you need to know on Tuesday morning
at eight am. It's another once in a lifetime event. Well,
there's no question we are living longer and longer and
lif longer. I mean, just not that long ago, you know,
(20:03):
before social Security, that's why they headed at sixty five.
Most people didn't even get to sixty five before that.
It was in the fifties. Man, back during the revolutionary time,
it was even younger than that. And now now as
you've seen people living in their eighties, nineties, over one hundred.
So how far is this going to go?
Speaker 8 (20:22):
Well?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Kevin Sirelli is a futurist reporter and founder of Meet
the Future website. Kevin, thanks for joining us. You have
the coolest title, a futurist reporter.
Speaker 8 (20:32):
Thank you, that is I got Really I can't take
credit for that. That was something my friend Janet in Washington,
DC thought of that, But I do.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
I like it.
Speaker 8 (20:42):
It's way more fun than being part of the fake
news media.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Very well put.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
Now, you shouldn't have said that. Maybe I should.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
No, that was really good for this show that was
bringing on. That was that was actually very perfect. Yeah,
but but to your wait one second before, I just
want to ask you one more question about this. Are
you the only futurist reporter in the country right now?
Speaker 9 (21:07):
I am.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Well, we're very proud to have you.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
Now continue, Thank you well, No, thank you for that.
That was really kind there. So one in five Americans
will be older than the age of sixty five by
twenty thirty, so think about that. We're getting older faster
as a nation. But we're not necessarily aging good. We're
actually aging pretty poorly. So scientists at Northwestern University they
(21:32):
did a super aging study, and they really studied what
they're calling super agers, people who are in their eighties
and nineties, but their brains have the cognitive memory of
folks in their thirties and forties, and so what they
found was that their memory is the sharp as people
who are younger than them, and the brain scans revealed wide.
The technology that they were able to use to track
(21:54):
and map their brains is really what's hopefully going to help.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
All of us age way better.
Speaker 8 (21:59):
Their cox is of these super agers. They're thicker, especially
in the regions that are controlling their memory and their attention.
These are not outliers. These are not Grandma and grandpop
lifting weights like Arnold swartzen Anger at the gym. These
are blueprints for all of us to be able to
live not just longer, but who because everybody who wants
(22:21):
to live long if you're not with it, but people
who are able to live longer and still be with
it and still be able to have a good life.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
I don't know you can live long and not be
with it and be president of the United States. So
I'm not well, I'm not sure that's necessarily a bad thing.
Speaker 8 (22:39):
But see your point. Watch how I artfully.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
God you no see, I took your fake news and
I won upped you as.
Speaker 8 (22:51):
But to your point. It has long ranging repercussions, not
just for the individual and for their family, but also
for larger society as a whole. Whether you know how
folks are able to live impacts everything from the economy
to our to our way of life. You know, there's
a guy named Dann Butter. He's Buttoner, I'm sorry, Buttoner,
(23:13):
and he's got really he's a scientist who.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
Studies what he calls blue zones.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
And he takes all of this data with AI and
he looks at parts of the world where there are
large pockets of people who have aged longer than one
hundred years old. And there's a place in Akinowa, Japan,
which has the highest concentration of individuals who are have
aged higher than one hundred and Sardinia, Italy is the
(23:40):
second highest. And what he found is that it's not
again that they're lifting weights or running ultra marathons. They've
got a daily rhythm.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
And I want to harp in on.
Speaker 8 (23:50):
That because the scientists at Northwestern identified something similar. These
super agers practice something in their daily rhythm. So they're moving,
they're talking to people, they're they're engaged, they're learning something,
they're working their mind like a muscle and it's a
daily practice for them of their daily rhythm. There's only
one place in the United States. I am going to
(24:11):
ask you to guess there's only one place in the
United States where there's a blue zone, which again is
a it qualifies for there being most people are a
high concentration of people who live over.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
One hundred Where do you think that is a state
or city?
Speaker 8 (24:26):
It's a city in a state, But if you can
guess the state, then I'll bet I don't really tell
I would give you, but yeah, that's a great guess. Actually, Larry, No,
it's Lower Linda, California. It's in California, and it you know,
they they practice Sabbath rest day. That's what the scientists found.
They have walking groups, and they do typically eat healthier.
(24:50):
I don't really want to get into like veganism debate,
but they do eat a lot of plants. They eat
their fruits and vegetables.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
How about that, Yeah, I would imagine. I mean, everybody
says diet and exercise. But then you started off by
saying that there's enough research about living long that negates
the importance of those two things. So which is true?
Speaker 8 (25:11):
Well, you know, there's a there's always an outlier. And
Jeane Calement she lived to be one hundred and twenty
two years old in France. She was riding a bike
at the age of one hundred, but she smoked until
one hundred and seventeen years old. In the last five
years of her life, she wasn't a smoker, but you know,
she was smoking til she was one hundred and seventeen.
(25:33):
Then scientists Maria Branias Morrera, she lives to be one
hundred and seventeen. She's still alive. She's in Spain, and
she tweets and she beat COVID. I don't know where
her Twitter handle is, but she beat COVID at the
age of one hundred and thirteen. God bless right.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Well, you're talking about all these outliers and a couple
of them that didn't live the life that we were
supposed to live to live long and so is there
is there a consistent what what do we learn from
them or or do we ignore them?
Speaker 8 (26:04):
It's habits. I think that's the sciences are saying. It's
it's the daily practice of the routine. But I think
what's really interesting, and especially we were talking you know,
in our previously about in a couple of weeks ago
about Parkinson's and dementia and Alzheimer's and how the technology
is being able to map your brain and to see
(26:26):
you know, early diagnosis or to see if you have
you know, if you're tracking to get that, and science
is really preventive medicine. Hopefully we shift even more so
of that, I would argue in the next decade. But
those that type of preventive, hey, your brain's on course
to develop this or that disease, will I think give
(26:48):
people more choice to be blunt and perhaps even more
impetus to make improvements to their daily life, because if
you know that you're more susceptible to Alzheimer's or dementia
and you can get ahead of it, not just with treatment,
but with making choices in your life, you know, perhaps
that would lead to a healthier aging process. Because again
(27:11):
we all know someone unfortunately who has suffered aging and
has not had a particularly kind end of life experience.
And I think that culturally we need to shift into
hopefully that forgetting about that, and not forgetting about but
for making that not existent anymore. And that should culturally
(27:32):
be our goal for all of this. So that's why
I think super aging is really really important and it
should be a goal for all of us to navigate
as we live.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
I'm glad we're even talking about it. Thanks so much
for bringing this to our attention. Kevin's a really futurist
reporter and founder of Meet the Future website.
Speaker 8 (27:52):
Hopefully a superager, and you're going to be a super agre.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Larry, I had no doubt.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
I doubt it. I hope. So I'm glad you're pulling
for me, but I've I don't.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
I have no doubt.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
I don't live a perfect lifestyle. I'll admitted WTF dot
tv also, huh so w TF dot.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
Ts not WTS, Larry ms.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Oh, that's right, I was World Wrestling MTF dot tv.
Thanks so much, Kevin, I appreciate it. What is going
on with the housing market A lot of supply but
not a lot of demand. W o R correspondent Rory
O'Neil explains what is going on next. Thanks so much
(28:32):
for your talkbacks. The competition is heavy for that mentee
in the morning T shirt.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
At least of my Puerto Rican household we called it
and Kulito loosely translated means the butt of the bread.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Have a good day. I've heard butt of the bread before.
We were having a conversation before what you call the
end of a loaf of bread or a role? What
do you call the and what did he say again?
Speaker 5 (29:02):
Golito, at least of my Puerto Rican household, we called it,
and kulito. Gulito loosely translated, means the butt of the bread.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
Kulito kulito.
Speaker 11 (29:16):
I like, yes see U l well a ta or.
Speaker 9 (29:22):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
I'm gonna call it that from now on. I'm gonna
eat thelito today.
Speaker 4 (29:26):
Okay, the end of a loaf of bread is called
the dupa. That's what we called it in my family,
and we are Hispanic and Polish.
Speaker 11 (29:37):
Now I looked up dupa and in Polish it seems
also to be butt. So all the foreign language words
from butt.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
This morning, say we teach you something every single day.
Speaker 9 (29:55):
The bread crust, when you open the package, it's actually
at the beginning, and when you get through the bread slices,
the last piece is the end.
Speaker 11 (30:07):
So there's two ends.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
That's only one end, that's right, that's exactly right. Well,
there can be two ends, but that's all right. She's right.
I get it. There's a beginning and an end. I
get it. That's my again, my mom called it that.
Speaker 11 (30:19):
So now I know you're always fascinated in the morning
with the topics that stick with people. We could be
talking about like world crisis, but the end of the bread,
I know people want to talk about it.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
That's it. You know, everybody, everybody can get in on
that conversation. By the way, Rory O'Neil, what do you
call the end of a loaf of bread?
Speaker 4 (30:42):
The heel?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yeah, that's ding ding ding. That's exactly right. That is
that's what the dictionary says you should call it.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
So and then the heel is the part that you
could use as an emergency hot dog bun.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Exactly, that's right. That's right. Yeah, And that's why Rory o'neils,
w R National Correspondent, let's talk a little bit about
the how for a while we were calling it a
housing crisis, and because of the mortgage rates, because of
the glood of homes, because how difficult it was to
buy a home. That all went away. Things gotten better.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Well, look, this is springtime, getting into summer. This should
be the busiest time going for buying and selling and
closing on houses. Families want to you know, wrap up
a move before the new year starts, a new school
year starts, and get out as this one is ending.
But they're not seeing that much activity right now. One
point nine million home sellers are out there, Reddin reports
(31:41):
there are one point five million buyers, So it could
be that we might start seeing some of some downward
pressure on housing prices. And again, this is nationwide, so
it's going to depend on where you are. But it's
pretty interesting to see this supply chain out of whack.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Yeah, that's really interesting too that you say prices are
going to have to be forced down, so maybe people
should wait, although that's probably bad for the economy in
the long run. Why aren't people buying.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Right now, Well, because a lot of people are priced
out and they need the home prices. You know, they
like that house, they want to see it, but they
don't have the income. So maybe their salaries will start
to catch up and maybe they can get up there.
The mortgage rates are high, what six point eighty nine
according to Freddie Mack is the most recent number, probably
(32:28):
closer to seven for most buyers. That's keeping a lot
of people away. And then look, we've seen a lot
of economic turmoil in recent weeks, right, Your four O
one k is up, your four o one k is down.
So that's sort of scaring a lot of people who
just are hunkering down, as it were.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah, so it just seems to be the time to
wait it out a little bit because the interest rates
eventually will come down, the prices, as you say, are
already being pressured down, and hopefully economic turmoil will end.
I hate to say that because buying house has helped
the economy, but it just doesn't. I think people have
figured this out already. Good. According to what you're.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Saying, well, yeah, the market's doing its thing right, and
that's what we're seeing. The advice from Redfinn. If you're
gonna sell, sell sooner. If you're gonna buy, drag your
feet a little.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Well, it seems like what people are doing. They took
that advice. Rory O'Neil, thanks so much, WR National Correspondent.
I'm today in honor of Rory. I'm gonna eat a
hot dog with the butt a butt of bread heel.
I know, but the popular choice so far has been
but or were you calling me a heel. I'm not
(33:35):
sure which one.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
I'll leave that open to interpretation.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
Roy O'Neil wr National Cars Fighter have a really good weekend.
The tariffs are off and then they're on again. ABC's
Rickline has the latest on that Elon Musk and Trump
may finally be fed up with Putin. All that coming
up after the eight o'clock News
Good morning, Happy Friday to you. It looks like Sunday
is the day this week. We're going to have a
nice day and the Big Three. Two NYPD officers have
been suspend suspended pending an investigation when it was discovered
that they were working security for the men who kidnapped
and tortured an Italian tourist for his crypto password. The
(00:24):
big problem here is they didn't report that to their supervisors.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
If you're working off duty without authorization, you could be suspended,
You could even be terminated as.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
A police officer.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
There's no evidence the officers took part in the torture,
although one of the officers allegedly picked up the victim
at the airport. One of the heroes post nine to eleven,
Police Commissioner Bernard Carrick is dead. Don't think there are
very few people in my life that I relied on
more than Bernie Carrick. No, nor are there too many
(00:57):
people in my life. Actually, there was no one in
my life that was braver than he was. That's Rudy Giuliani.
Kurkd did have a fall from grace when he spent
time in prison for tax fraud. Couric was sixty nine
years old. Dozens arrested after protest over a high school
student deported after showing up for a scheduled immigration hearing.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
He is a.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Student, a hard worker, a family matter.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
He is actually the father figure to two siblings because
his dad passed away and his mom is a widow.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
More protests expected today and it's finally happening. James Comer
is calling White House staff that worked in the White
House under Joe Biden to testify as to who was
running that White House, who was signing important executive orders
when President Biden could not. Many of those documents were
(01:54):
signed on days where Joe Biden wasn't anywhere near the
White House. There's no evidence of any email communication between
the President and the staffers. The FBI is ready to
make public formally classified documents on several high profile cases,
including the death of Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
Special Envoy Witkoff and the President submitted a seats fire
proposal to Hamas that Israel backed and supported. Israel signed
off on this proposal before it was sent to Hamas.
I can also confirm that those discussions are.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Continuing right that's on the ceasefire agreement. That's on the
table for hermas. A whole lot going on today, But
what about this? The Knicks lived to fight another day?
Or Knicks have looked elimination in the eye. I'm been
alive and kicking.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
And now the series to game six s Inindy with
the pacer League cut three games to two.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah, like it. I get a feeling. I got a
feeling it's going to be the nixt Nick's Oklahoma City
in the finals. I'm sure rob Astorino gets that same feeling.
Rob Astorino is the host of The Rob Astorino Show
on w R Saturday is from four to five pm.
He's host of Saturday Agenda one to three on Newsmack's,
(03:13):
former Westchester County executive and a visitor of the White House.
You were at the White House yesterday, I was.
Speaker 7 (03:21):
Yeah, I was. But first, if the Knicks keep playing
defense like they played last night, and if Bruntson lights
him up like he did last night, they could they
could force the game seven.
Speaker 8 (03:32):
But I mean it's wait, wait a.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Second, you ended at game seven. They could force the
game seven. Oh, you're taking it one game at a time,
that's what you're doing.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
Yeah, yeah, I get now. Coach thing, one game at
a time, one at a time.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
No, you're absolutely right. Hey, listen, should we be afraid
of zoriin mom Donny?
Speaker 7 (03:53):
Oh my god? Yes, oh yeah. This guy was always
on my radar because he fits the time right now
for the left. And I'm not talking Democrat, I'm talking
left and the leftists in our city. Unfortunately, there's way
too many. Plus there's just very naive, ignorant voters who
(04:14):
get swooped up in all this just like an AOC.
And this guy is frightening if he actually gets in,
because if he gets in, there's no rails, there's no
Republican city council. There's no moderate normal city council. There
is a city council stuffed with imbeciles and ignoramuses like
(04:34):
this guy, and so they will go along with a
lot of what he wants, like government run New York
City run supermarkets because they do everything else, so well,
why not open up a food store? What could go wrong?
Free buses, free childcare, free everything, and of course an
enormous increase in taxes. So yes, I think we should
(04:59):
take it very seriously. I know Coloma was taking him seriously.
And this is the kind of thing that scares safe incumbents,
And I'm gonna put Clomo in the incumbent there, even
though he's not mayor, but you know, former governor who
he is, who he is. When a guy like this
or a woman like this, anything candidate like this catches fire.
(05:21):
And this is Amdami. Guy has a ton of money,
he's got all these proposals that the Wakadu's love, and
he's he's got momentum.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, I agree with you. I don't think he's going
to win the Democratic primary. But when he runs from
mayor and the votes are deluded and you have several
people who are considered moderate Democrats and you have Curtis Leewa,
he's scary. I mean, if he can get thirty five percent,
he becomes mayor of New York City.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
Yeah. Well, I mean he's got to get through all
this stupid rank choice voting thing. And that's where in
these you know, simulations, in these polls, Cuomo wins on
like the sixth seventh ballot. But this is where the
you know, this is where the second, third, fourth choice
that people put on their stupid rank choice voting New
(06:11):
York City ballot really comes into play. And this is
where these other candidates now are starting to team up.
So it'll be interesting to see if Zamdami does try
to tea up with some other candidates, because if he does,
you know, they're basically telling you know, someone else. Let's say,
I know you're going to vote for Adrian Adams, but
(06:32):
make me your second choice. So when Adrian Adams falls off,
if she does, then Zamdami picks up her votes, and
that's how it accumulates to potentially winning. It's just it's
such a horrible, stupid system. Instead of one vote one person,
you get like six votes. It's crazy.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I agree with you, but you were talking about Cuomo
winning on the sixth or seventh ballot. That's exactly why
I'm scared. Because Cuomo's really holding steady with his support
Mom Donnie. He keeps growing, and I think that everybody
was looking at him going, oh, he's a socialist. You know,
he was like a cautionary tail for a while, but
now he's a serious threat because the more people get
(07:11):
to know him. As you said, and it's all by
the way, it's all liberal whites. He's getting like no
MINORTI support.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
Yeah no, because liberal whites have become the stupidest people
right now, They're the stupidest voters. They're the ones that
are doing this, driving this far left nonsense in the
Democratic Party. I mean, it's in many ways it's liberal
whites that are being the most anti semitic. It's liberal
whites that are the socialists. It's just and by the way,
(07:40):
for the most part, these are wealthier and quote unquote
educated people who are doing this too.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Hey help me with this latest deportation. Cause celeb this
high school student. Twenty year old high school student Dylan
in New York City. I underst stand that is hard
not to make a mistake when you're deporting so many people,
but this sure does seem like a mistake. I keep
(08:08):
waiting for the I keep waiting for the other story
to come out, and the silence is really bothering me.
Speaker 7 (08:15):
Yeah, look, I agree, I would wait because in all
these other cases there have been instance something else has
come out. Right, you know, the Democrats were fast to run, scream,
make across the lab of whomever, and then all of
a sudden, new stuff kept coming out. So I don't
know if it will or won't. And yes, I agree,
(08:36):
when you're trying to figure out all these people who
need to be deported for various reasons. You're going to
make a mistake, and and by the way, if it
is a mistake, they should admit it and that's that
done and over with. But unfortunately, with all these other
non mistakes, these violent criminals, these criminals who are back
(08:56):
and forth over the border with deportation orders and still
being allowed to stay here by judges. I mean, this
is what this is what people are really angry about
and scratching their heads about. And I mean that's the
biggest frustration.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I agree with you, Rob, This one feels different, though,
doesn't it.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
It just feels I think so, I think so.
Speaker 7 (09:17):
Yeah, But again with all these other cases, I would
I would almost reserve judgment for a little while. But
obviously if it's if it's wrong, then and then it's wrong,
we need to admit it and make sure that doesn't
happen again.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah. I hate that it happened. I really do believe
it happened because they they didn't like the numbers. Trump
didn't like the numbers. Homan didn't like the numbers. They
wanted more. They put pressure on the guys and when
you put pressure on people just to make arrest. Their
mistakes are going to be made. Hey, you're going to
be talking about this this weekend.
Speaker 7 (09:47):
Uh yeah Yeah. What I really want to talk about
is the twenty million dollars Democrats had to spend to
figure out how to spend money.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I love that story. They're just burning money. Host of
the Rob Astorno Show on WOR Saturday's four to five PM,
host of Saturday Agenda one to three on Newsmax, and
former of Westchester County executive. Of course, thanks a lot, Rob.
Speaker 8 (10:11):
Carry Larry.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Here's an interesting question. What do you call the end
of the end of the loaf of bread? Apparently there
are a lot of correct names. We'll talk about it next.
Plus tickets to see the Steve Miller Band at A
twenty five. So we do have this highly competitive contest
going on. Everybody, it seems once one of these Menty
(10:32):
in the Morning T shirts, I've been offered bribes, I've
been stopped on the street. I thought I was gonna
get robbed, and you know, you have to just tell
people I don't have the T shirts. They're locked away
somewhere in a vault, and only the person that comes
up with the best talk back of the day as
determined by our committee our academy gets a mentee in
(10:54):
the morning T shirt. They're that exclusive, they're that sought after.
If you want one, you go to the iHeartRadio app,
you look for the talkback feature, leave us a talkback
and we play it. And if you were determined to
be the talkback of the day, you win. You know
what I want to know, Larry, I want to know
where the Democrats concern was for all the Americans for
(11:18):
the last four years.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Where was their compassion for all of the Americans?
Speaker 9 (11:24):
None?
Speaker 1 (11:25):
But they can find all this passion and all this
concern for one single migrant that was detained illegally.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
You gotta be kidding me.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah, all they really need is one. They need somebody
to put up there. But you're right, thousands have been
taken away already and there hasn't been a problem. And
every time they think there's a problem, it's turned out
not to be the case. So that's a great question.
It is a good question. Where were they complaining, And
of course they didn't. They denied everything. If you remember
(11:58):
the border was secure. You know, inflation, it's just cyclical.
When we were going through a recession that they denied
that too, But where were they when Obama was doing
the same thing three hundred and twenty thousand deported not
a peep from them? Then it was okay, I'm sure
there was mistakes then as well.
Speaker 10 (12:18):
From what you're saying, the facts are the facts. We
probably did make a mistake. However, I'm going to tell
you the mistake you're now making. You are amplifying this.
And you know our Democrat friends are lunatics and they
need very little to incite them, and that's exactly what
you're doing right now, is that you're creating a problem
(12:42):
by broadcasting this, and I hope you stop.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
I'm sorry. Have you watched the news, It's been the
lead story everywhere, and if you've watched CNN, even Fox
has been covering it. I mean, it's out there and
I did wait. I understand your concern, but I'm not
going to amplify this anymore than it's been amplified. And
(13:07):
I think when you make a mistake, all you have
to do is just admit you made a mistake.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Larry, you made the excellent analysis of Biden gave. I
think he was very well presented and wouldn't it be
interesting to see if the statement by Obama that he
would like to be behind the scenes running the show
really came to fruition during the Biden years. Maybe an
(13:33):
FBI rate of the Obama House in Washington, DC would
be very revealing.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Yeah, it need cause for that. As much as I
would like to see that, you do need cause for that.
Let's wait and see where the investigation goes. I'm just
thrilled that there's finally going to be an investigation and
I'm going to be looking for criminality the entire time
because it will be putting someone in jail that will
(14:02):
make certain this never ever happens again. Now I'm with trepidation.
I'm going to talk to Natalie. If you've heard coughing
in the background, Natalie is such a trooper. Natalie's been
sick now for a while, and Natalie came in today.
You thought you had this beat.
Speaker 11 (14:20):
I did I feel so bad aback last night. I
don't know why, but here I am all right.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
So what do you call the end of a loaf
of bread?
Speaker 11 (14:30):
It depends on the loaf.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Well you've thought this out.
Speaker 11 (14:34):
Yes, if it's an Italian Italian loaf it's a heel,
you know, like a piece of Italian bread. If it's
like a sandwich bread, a wonderbread or something. Yeah, it's
the end or the I think I've also called it
the crust.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You said wonderbread with such disdain.
Speaker 11 (14:53):
Yeah, well I haven't had wonderbred since I was a kid.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
I love wonderbread when I was a kid. I'll tell
you what. I'll tell you how white bread I am.
I used to love wonderbread, just with mayonnaise. I knew
you were going to say mayonnaise.
Speaker 12 (15:06):
I just knew when you said this is how white
bread is gonna say.
Speaker 8 (15:09):
He had mayo.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Sandwich is on wonderbread. Oh god, I love them.
Speaker 11 (15:13):
I used to take wonderbread and smush it into a ball.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
And yeah, I've done what. I agree, I've done that.
So you go with heel heel.
Speaker 11 (15:24):
If it's an Italian loaf, and I would say a
crust if it's a sandwich bread.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, you're absolutely correct. Really, that's
the term for it. It is a heel. The reason we're
talking about this now is because it's become a big
thing on social media. Somebody just posted it and said,
what do you call this and show the end of
a bread? And it was. They were inundated with responses.
(15:50):
This was a big deal. They were stunned themselves. One
was the crust, which is what my mom used to
call it, the end of a bread? Was the crust? Jackal?
What did you call it?
Speaker 8 (16:00):
The end?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
The end? Yet a lot of people say the end?
Speaker 11 (16:03):
Of course, Now did you ever want the end? I
never wanted end.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I'd love the end.
Speaker 11 (16:09):
You do, yes, Okay.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
That's pretty funny because one of the terms is the
dad bread and I have eaten the end. I didn't
as a kid, but as a dad, you eat the
end because you don't want to waste the end, hey.
Speaker 11 (16:24):
Because nobody else wants it.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
And you get to say to the kids, there's nothing
wrong with this, and you make your sandwich with it.
It's pretty good. It's like a roll. Right, all right,
Let's get to Jacqueline Carl with the seven thirty News. Jacquelin,
Good morning.
Speaker 12 (16:39):
President Trump's tariff's plan is being reinstated by a federal
appeals court for now. The court granted the administration's request
to pause a lower court's ruling that blocked most of
Trump's tariffs on other countries, and a couple of lanes
on Interstate eighty westbound our scheduled to reopen tonight after
long term sinkhole repairs.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Several sinkholes formed way back in December, and ever since
then there's been massive disruptions to drivers and businesses in
the Warden area because of extensive repair work to Interstate eighty.
It was completely shut by eggs of thirty four for
two months. Two lanes on the eastbound side reopened last week,
and now two westbound lanes reopening, freeing up local roads
which have been experiencing a lot of congestion. Route eighty
(17:22):
is expected to fully reopen by June twenty fifth. I'm
Scathpringle wr News.
Speaker 12 (17:27):
Okay, now this story starts off scary, but it gets better.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
I promise.
Speaker 12 (17:32):
A hiker is back from the dead, alive and well
after a frantic emergency call. It happened over the holiday
weekend in the Adirondacks when two New York hikers called
and said they were lost and their friend had died
on the trail.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Oh I know.
Speaker 12 (17:48):
The first ranger to show up quickly found that the
two were actually tripping on psychedelica mushrooms. Their friend also
called the rangers and was found alive, and well had
they all just got separated. And these two guys that
were tripping just because they couldn't find their friend.
Speaker 9 (18:06):
They called.
Speaker 12 (18:07):
They were like, we're lost, our friend is dead. The
shrooman hands tigers were taken away by ambulance and introduced
to friendly representatives from the New York State Police.
Speaker 11 (18:17):
Now did they bring the shrooms with them or were
they eating what was on the trail?
Speaker 12 (18:21):
I don't know that they were eating. Do they have
tracks and eating about shrooms?
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Like? Can you find them on a regular trail?
Speaker 8 (18:30):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
No, no, no, I'm not that I'm an expert in shrooms. Okay,
but you're not going to eat mushrooms off the trail.
By the way, never eat mushrooms in the wild, no
matter if you think that their shrooms are not. You
can die from mushrooms in the wild if you eat
the right one, or you can think you died or
your friend service. You can seriously die from eating the
(18:59):
wrong mushroom. You eat the right mushrooms, then you get
those hallucinations. Thanks a lot, Jacqueline carl Well, human beings
are living longer than ever before, and with the advances
in biotech. Right now, we're gonna live even longer. Futurist
reporter Kevin Surrelli talks about how humans are pushing the
(19:21):
boundaries of longevity. That's coming up next and presenting the
twenty twenty five iHeartRadio Music Festival, the biggest music event
of the year, legendary performances from the biggest names in music,
along with once in a lifetime collaborations. We'll announce the
complete lineup for this year's show soon and let you
(19:42):
know how you could win tickets before they go on sale.
Find out everything you need to know on Tuesday morning
at eight am. It's another once in a lifetime event. Well,
there's no question we are living longer and longer and
lif longer. I mean, just not that long ago, you know,
(20:03):
before social Security, that's why they headed at sixty five.
Most people didn't even get to sixty five before that.
It was in the fifties. Man, back during the revolutionary time,
it was even younger than that. And now now as
you've seen people living in their eighties, nineties, over one hundred.
So how far is this going to go?
Speaker 8 (20:22):
Well?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Kevin Sirelli is a futurist reporter and founder of Meet
the Future website. Kevin, thanks for joining us. You have
the coolest title, a futurist reporter.
Speaker 8 (20:32):
Thank you, that is I got Really I can't take
credit for that. That was something my friend Janet in Washington,
DC thought of that, But I do.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
I like it.
Speaker 8 (20:42):
It's way more fun than being part of the fake
news media.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Very well put.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
Now, you shouldn't have said that. Maybe I should.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
No, that was really good for this show that was
bringing on. That was that was actually very perfect. Yeah,
but but to your wait one second before, I just
want to ask you one more question about this. Are
you the only futurist reporter in the country right now?
Speaker 9 (21:07):
I am.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Well, we're very proud to have you.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
Now continue, Thank you well, No, thank you for that.
That was really kind there. So one in five Americans
will be older than the age of sixty five by
twenty thirty, so think about that. We're getting older faster
as a nation. But we're not necessarily aging good. We're
actually aging pretty poorly. So scientists at Northwestern University they
(21:32):
did a super aging study, and they really studied what
they're calling super agers, people who are in their eighties
and nineties, but their brains have the cognitive memory of
folks in their thirties and forties, and so what they
found was that their memory is the sharp as people
who are younger than them, and the brain scans revealed wide.
The technology that they were able to use to track
(21:54):
and map their brains is really what's hopefully going to help.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
All of us age way better.
Speaker 8 (21:59):
Their cox is of these super agers. They're thicker, especially
in the regions that are controlling their memory and their attention.
These are not outliers. These are not Grandma and grandpop
lifting weights like Arnold swartzen Anger at the gym. These
are blueprints for all of us to be able to
live not just longer, but who because everybody who wants
(22:21):
to live long if you're not with it, but people
who are able to live longer and still be with
it and still be able to have a good life.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
I don't know you can live long and not be
with it and be president of the United States. So
I'm not well, I'm not sure that's necessarily a bad thing.
Speaker 8 (22:39):
But see your point. Watch how I artfully.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
God you no see, I took your fake news and
I won upped you as.
Speaker 8 (22:51):
But to your point. It has long ranging repercussions, not
just for the individual and for their family, but also
for larger society as a whole. Whether you know how
folks are able to live impacts everything from the economy
to our to our way of life. You know, there's
a guy named Dann Butter. He's Buttoner, I'm sorry, Buttoner,
(23:13):
and he's got really he's a scientist who.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
Studies what he calls blue zones.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
And he takes all of this data with AI and
he looks at parts of the world where there are
large pockets of people who have aged longer than one
hundred years old. And there's a place in Akinowa, Japan,
which has the highest concentration of individuals who are have
aged higher than one hundred and Sardinia, Italy is the
(23:40):
second highest. And what he found is that it's not
again that they're lifting weights or running ultra marathons. They've
got a daily rhythm.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
And I want to harp in on.
Speaker 8 (23:50):
That because the scientists at Northwestern identified something similar. These
super agers practice something in their daily rhythm. So they're moving,
they're talking to people, they're they're engaged, they're learning something,
they're working their mind like a muscle and it's a
daily practice for them of their daily rhythm. There's only
one place in the United States. I am going to
(24:11):
ask you to guess there's only one place in the
United States where there's a blue zone, which again is
a it qualifies for there being most people are a
high concentration of people who live over.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
One hundred Where do you think that is a state
or city?
Speaker 8 (24:26):
It's a city in a state, But if you can
guess the state, then I'll bet I don't really tell
I would give you, but yeah, that's a great guess. Actually, Larry, No,
it's Lower Linda, California. It's in California, and it you know,
they they practice Sabbath rest day. That's what the scientists found.
They have walking groups, and they do typically eat healthier.
(24:50):
I don't really want to get into like veganism debate,
but they do eat a lot of plants. They eat
their fruits and vegetables.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
How about that, Yeah, I would imagine. I mean, everybody
says diet and exercise. But then you started off by
saying that there's enough research about living long that negates
the importance of those two things. So which is true?
Speaker 8 (25:11):
Well, you know, there's a there's always an outlier. And
Jeane Calement she lived to be one hundred and twenty
two years old in France. She was riding a bike
at the age of one hundred, but she smoked until
one hundred and seventeen years old. In the last five
years of her life, she wasn't a smoker, but you know,
she was smoking til she was one hundred and seventeen.
(25:33):
Then scientists Maria Branias Morrera, she lives to be one
hundred and seventeen. She's still alive. She's in Spain, and
she tweets and she beat COVID. I don't know where
her Twitter handle is, but she beat COVID at the
age of one hundred and thirteen. God bless right.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Well, you're talking about all these outliers and a couple
of them that didn't live the life that we were
supposed to live to live long and so is there
is there a consistent what what do we learn from
them or or do we ignore them?
Speaker 8 (26:04):
It's habits. I think that's the sciences are saying. It's
it's the daily practice of the routine. But I think
what's really interesting, and especially we were talking you know,
in our previously about in a couple of weeks ago
about Parkinson's and dementia and Alzheimer's and how the technology
is being able to map your brain and to see
(26:26):
you know, early diagnosis or to see if you have
you know, if you're tracking to get that, and science
is really preventive medicine. Hopefully we shift even more so
of that, I would argue in the next decade. But
those that type of preventive, hey, your brain's on course
to develop this or that disease, will I think give
(26:48):
people more choice to be blunt and perhaps even more
impetus to make improvements to their daily life, because if
you know that you're more susceptible to Alzheimer's or dementia
and you can get ahead of it, not just with treatment,
but with making choices in your life, you know, perhaps
that would lead to a healthier aging process. Because again
(27:11):
we all know someone unfortunately who has suffered aging and
has not had a particularly kind end of life experience.
And I think that culturally we need to shift into
hopefully that forgetting about that, and not forgetting about but
for making that not existent anymore. And that should culturally
(27:32):
be our goal for all of this. So that's why
I think super aging is really really important and it
should be a goal for all of us to navigate
as we live.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
I'm glad we're even talking about it. Thanks so much
for bringing this to our attention. Kevin's a really futurist
reporter and founder of Meet the Future website.
Speaker 8 (27:52):
Hopefully a superager, and you're going to be a super agre.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Larry, I had no doubt.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
I doubt it. I hope. So I'm glad you're pulling
for me, but I've I don't.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
I have no doubt.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
I don't live a perfect lifestyle. I'll admitted WTF dot
tv also, huh so w TF dot.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
Ts not WTS, Larry ms.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Oh, that's right, I was World Wrestling MTF dot tv.
Thanks so much, Kevin, I appreciate it. What is going
on with the housing market A lot of supply but
not a lot of demand. W o R correspondent Rory
O'Neil explains what is going on next. Thanks so much
(28:32):
for your talkbacks. The competition is heavy for that mentee
in the morning T shirt.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
At least of my Puerto Rican household we called it
and Kulito loosely translated means the butt of the bread.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Have a good day. I've heard butt of the bread before.
We were having a conversation before what you call the
end of a loaf of bread or a role? What
do you call the and what did he say again?
Speaker 5 (29:02):
Golito, at least of my Puerto Rican household, we called it,
and kulito. Gulito loosely translated, means the butt of the bread.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
Kulito kulito.
Speaker 11 (29:16):
I like, yes see U l well a ta or.
Speaker 9 (29:22):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
I'm gonna call it that from now on. I'm gonna
eat thelito today.
Speaker 4 (29:26):
Okay, the end of a loaf of bread is called
the dupa. That's what we called it in my family,
and we are Hispanic and Polish.
Speaker 11 (29:37):
Now I looked up dupa and in Polish it seems
also to be butt. So all the foreign language words
from butt.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
This morning, say we teach you something every single day.
Speaker 9 (29:55):
The bread crust, when you open the package, it's actually
at the beginning, and when you get through the bread slices,
the last piece is the end.
Speaker 11 (30:07):
So there's two ends.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
That's only one end, that's right, that's exactly right. Well,
there can be two ends, but that's all right. She's right.
I get it. There's a beginning and an end. I
get it. That's my again, my mom called it that.
Speaker 11 (30:19):
So now I know you're always fascinated in the morning
with the topics that stick with people. We could be
talking about like world crisis, but the end of the bread,
I know people want to talk about it.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
That's it. You know, everybody, everybody can get in on
that conversation. By the way, Rory O'Neil, what do you
call the end of a loaf of bread?
Speaker 4 (30:42):
The heel?
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yeah, that's ding ding ding. That's exactly right. That is
that's what the dictionary says you should call it.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
So and then the heel is the part that you
could use as an emergency hot dog bun.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Exactly, that's right. That's right. Yeah, And that's why Rory o'neils,
w R National Correspondent, let's talk a little bit about
the how for a while we were calling it a
housing crisis, and because of the mortgage rates, because of
the glood of homes, because how difficult it was to
buy a home. That all went away. Things gotten better.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Well, look, this is springtime, getting into summer. This should
be the busiest time going for buying and selling and
closing on houses. Families want to you know, wrap up
a move before the new year starts, a new school
year starts, and get out as this one is ending.
But they're not seeing that much activity right now. One
point nine million home sellers are out there, Reddin reports
(31:41):
there are one point five million buyers, So it could
be that we might start seeing some of some downward
pressure on housing prices. And again, this is nationwide, so
it's going to depend on where you are. But it's
pretty interesting to see this supply chain out of whack.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Yeah, that's really interesting too that you say prices are
going to have to be forced down, so maybe people
should wait, although that's probably bad for the economy in
the long run. Why aren't people buying.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Right now, Well, because a lot of people are priced
out and they need the home prices. You know, they
like that house, they want to see it, but they
don't have the income. So maybe their salaries will start
to catch up and maybe they can get up there.
The mortgage rates are high, what six point eighty nine
according to Freddie Mack is the most recent number, probably
(32:28):
closer to seven for most buyers. That's keeping a lot
of people away. And then look, we've seen a lot
of economic turmoil in recent weeks, right, Your four O
one k is up, your four o one k is down.
So that's sort of scaring a lot of people who
just are hunkering down, as it were.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Yeah, so it just seems to be the time to
wait it out a little bit because the interest rates
eventually will come down, the prices, as you say, are
already being pressured down, and hopefully economic turmoil will end.
I hate to say that because buying house has helped
the economy, but it just doesn't. I think people have
figured this out already. Good. According to what you're.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
Saying, well, yeah, the market's doing its thing right, and
that's what we're seeing. The advice from Redfinn. If you're
gonna sell, sell sooner. If you're gonna buy, drag your
feet a little.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Well, it seems like what people are doing. They took
that advice. Rory O'Neil, thanks so much, WR National Correspondent.
I'm today in honor of Rory. I'm gonna eat a
hot dog with the butt a butt of bread heel.
I know, but the popular choice so far has been
but or were you calling me a heel. I'm not
(33:35):
sure which one.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
I'll leave that open to interpretation.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
