Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
And good morning to you, thanks for being here this morning.
In the Big Three, we got some good news. It's
day two of the Schumer shutdown of the federal government.
That's the bad news. They had a vote and some
Democrats came over. That's the good news. Not enough, not
enough to stop the shutdown. But there is word that
Moore are still going to come over and cross over

(00:23):
and vote to stop the shutdown.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
President, House, Republican, Senate, Republicans. We're all united on this.
And what's interesting now is some of the Democrats are
joining us. Our vote last night was a bipartisan vote.
There were three Democrats that came over and voted with
us because they know this strategy is a losing one.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
They'll have another vote today. We'll see if the shutdown ends.
The Republicans will keep having the votes over and over,
day after day until they finally get enough Democrats. In
the wake of the Schumer shutdown, the Trump administration is
holding back eighteen billion with a B funding for transportation

(01:02):
projects in New York, including the Gateway Tunnel. The reason
given a review to see if contracts were based on
DEI hiring.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
They're trying to make culture wars be the reason why
culture wars over the tens of thousands of jobs that
we've created with these infrastructure products that were literally talked
about for decades.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
A lot of people are saying there's not DEI at all.
It's kind of a punishment to Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries.
Last night, two Delta jets collided on the runway. They
were going at a very slow speed, but still they're
so big. The wing from one airliner slammed into the

(01:49):
cockpit of another airliner. One person was injured. Here's air
Traffic Control.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Oh and you guys sit CLI correct.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
Yeah, we did their right way with our noes and
the concert we have says to our point screen.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
We have three well on the view candidate Zora and mom. Donnie,
the leading candidate to be met in the next mayor
of New York City, was asked if he ever apologized
to police officers for once calling them racists.

Speaker 5 (02:25):
Have you formally apologized to the NYPD? These are conversations
that I'm having individually with officers.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
What a horrible answer, What a weak answer. So you
can't just come out and apologize and Mayor Adams had
his first media availability since dropping out of the race.

Speaker 6 (02:45):
This city's in Goochepe, and we need to make sure
we don't go backwards. And I'm gonna say you in
the Roods Bloomberg when I became mayor don't it up.
It has become so good for you guys that you
don't even realize it.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
But you know what you're gonna miss me. Doctor Jane Goodall,
whose lifelong work studying the behavior of apes and chimpanzees,
helping us all to understand their behaviors and emotions and
how they're so much like us, has died.

Speaker 7 (03:14):
She was, you know, a driven, curious, passionate scientist, but
she also wrapped in the that emotional connection and that
actually having that connection with the individuals you're watching lets
you understand their lives.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
She was still out on tour, working up to the
age of ninety one. But Jane Goodall has died ninety
one years old, and the Yankees survived to fight another day.
Two some quarterbacks back.

Speaker 8 (03:50):
New York Yankeys for Cremavy continue.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
You'll be a deciding game.

Speaker 9 (03:56):
Yeah a stadium tomorrow four three mins till I Bay.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
They they stay alive, and that's gotta be music to
the ears. Of doctor Arthur Kaplan, professor of Bioethics at
New York University Land going Medical Center with us every
Thursday at this time, big Yankees fan, doctor.

Speaker 8 (04:18):
Music to my ears? You mean like a funeral dirt? Oh?

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Why are you a red such thing?

Speaker 8 (04:24):
I grew up You guys should know this. I was
born in Boston. I grew up in Boston. I lived
in Framingham for a while. I went to college at Brandeis,
which is right outside of Boston. No, I'm not a
Yankee fan.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Oh man. I was so hopeful that you were, because.

Speaker 8 (04:47):
It would be feel better. God has punished me for
my deviant opinions and blathering mouth. My wife is a
gigantic Yankee fan.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Can we talk to her?

Speaker 8 (05:05):
I think she went out to buy some more gear.
I don't think.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Do you want?

Speaker 8 (05:11):
It's funny, you know I see a lot of the
Yankees because she watches. Her brother is a gigantic Yankee fan.
He has whatever that ticket is and watches all one
hundred and sixty two games. So I have to listen
to this all day long, all night long about the Yankees.
I'm watching Aaron Boone, you know, keep getting Nightmarriors about

(05:33):
remember that tem But anyway I have met. I should
also add Aaron Boone and he was up here in
Ridgefield at our Prospector Theater, which is a great little
theater that helps people with handicaps. And I told him
I liked him personally, but you know, I didn't think

(05:55):
much of his work.

Speaker 10 (05:56):
So I just have to ask, what will your house
be like tonight when the game is on?

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Do you guys speak to I.

Speaker 8 (06:02):
Don't know because I'll be watching. I'll be watching it downstairs,
watching it upstairs.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
Can you hear her cheering when the Yankees win? Can you?

Speaker 11 (06:11):
Now?

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Do you stay downstairs? And do you sleep downstairs? Jes
So you don't have to.

Speaker 8 (06:15):
Say I don't have to sleep downstairs, but I am responsible.
I suspect from my own meals today.

Speaker 10 (06:23):
You know what, I love the way you've been able
to figure that out in your marriage.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Good for you, guys.

Speaker 8 (06:27):
Yeah, well you know it's only uh one more night
until the Yankees are gone.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
So that we'll see I gotta feel and they're gonna win.
They looked good. Didn't they look good yesterday? Didn't you
think so they look really good yesterday?

Speaker 8 (06:42):
Hey, you want to I'll make a small confession. You
know who, I really enjoy watching his judge. He is
a player for the ages and even I have to
admire that guy in the field, that big guy running
around getting that you know, getting the final out last
night and so on. He is amazing, just an amazing player,
a nice guy too.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
So we'll leave the sports conversation on that point of
agreement and now.

Speaker 8 (07:06):
And so I'll talk to you next week.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Well, we'll see. It depends on what happens tonight. So
Trump unveils Trump r X the website. What are your
thoughts on that.

Speaker 8 (07:22):
We know I've been a big critic of RFK Junior.
I don't like the Trump Kennedy health policy overall, but
I like this. I think this is a good move.
I think it's way past due for any president to
finally do something about huge exorbitant drug prices. You know this,
We've said it here before. We're paying three, four or

(07:44):
five times as much as comparable countries. The pharmaceutical companies
tell us, well, we have to pay more here because
somebody's got to pay for the research that we do
to bring you the next generation of drugs. And I'm
thinking we have to subsidize France, Germany right, sing that's crazy,

(08:04):
and Trump has said so he knows that that makes
no sense. So he's basically saying, I'm going to tear
a few one hundred percent or you bring your prices down.
And Pfizer has bought in and said okay, okay, we'll
do it, and I think other companies will follow.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
So this puts the other companies on notice.

Speaker 8 (08:22):
Now it does, and uh, I'll tell you what we'll
have to watch for. This is tricky. Let's say they
drop prices here, many of them, but they start raising
them overseas right to make up the difference, So they
start charging Britain or France more. But a lot of
our drugs come from there, so we're in a weird

(08:44):
situation where the price could fall here, but what about
the drugs we import from there if they raise the
prices on the other end. So Trump and his crew
are gonna have to be watching this to make sure
they don't game it.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
You know what, we talk so much about sports, we're
gonna be te on time. But I did want to
bring up the idea of medical chaperones. Great idea.

Speaker 8 (09:05):
So this is a way past you over deer, overdue
it's basically the idea that you can ask for a
third party to be present, particularly if you're having an
intimate examination or it's a child, and we don't use
it enough our hospitals in the area. Some have requirements
that they tell you that's an option, some don't. So

(09:27):
if you're nervous when you go to the doctor and
you want somebody in the room, you have a right
to ask for chaperone. We'll talk about this some other time,
but what I want to see is more training for
the chaperones right now, they're not always well trained to
act for the patient. Nevertheless, still a good thing if
you're uncomfortable ask.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Yeah. I love the idea of this, Thanks so much.
We will talk about it next week. Doctor Arthur Kaplan,
professor of bioethics at New York University, lend Going Medical
Center with us every Thursday at nine oh five. We'll
talk about this. Go sucks all right, Yeah, we won't
be talking about them next week, that's for sure. A

(10:06):
woman hits herver teks a lot, doctor. A woman hits
a record setting jackpot on a game show and it
hides it from her boyfriend. We'll fill in all the
details on this story after the break. Well, thanks so
much for listening today and thanks for contributing. Thanks for
your talkbacks. As I said before, and I say all
the time, and because it's absolutely true, you make the show,

(10:29):
you inspire conversation, and I really appreciate the back and forth.
Let's get to it.

Speaker 12 (10:34):
Talking about Wikipedia this morning, just for fun, I decided
to look up Charlie Kirk on Wikipedia to see what
they were even handed, And well, you have to go
yourself and take a look. But they quote the New
York Times views of his opinions, as well as the
Southern Poverty Law Center, and everything they say about it

(10:54):
tends to be negative. So I don't think that's quite
even handed.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
Must be why so many people resigned, and now why
Elon Musk is going to start his own sight to
go up against Wikipedia. I'll have to take a look
at that. Thanks for putting that out.

Speaker 11 (11:09):
I think Adam just said that he knows that everybody's
going to miss him. They're going to know how nice
and how well they had it under him. He's waiting
for more.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
He's probably waiting.

Speaker 11 (11:21):
For something from Como, and if he doesn't get what
he wants, he's going to give it all to Curtis
as revenge. I mean, this thing in Mayor raised in
New York is just getting messier messier.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
Wow, you think he's going to enduse a Republican I
just don't see that happening. But I'd be willing and
more than able and gleeful to admit that I'm wrong
if and when it happens.

Speaker 13 (11:51):
For door Dash on delivering food by robots, just think,
when the robot delivers your food, you don't even have
to tip him.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
You won't know what it is. Ah ar woman, the
way she moves. I love that. But how much do
you want to bet? Robot's gonna come to your door
and it's gonna have a little apparatus where it's going
to say, do you want to give ten percent? Fifteen percent?

Speaker 8 (12:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Oh yeah, there's no question about that. So they had
a big winner on Wheel of Fortune. Now help me
out on this, Natalie, because you watch Wheel of Fortune
and I don't really watch Wheel of Fortune, and so
there's a chance you can win a million dollars.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (12:33):
So during the regular round sometimes people get the million
dollar card. You know that they spun, and that means
you have a chance in the bonus round of potentially
winning it.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
So a lot has to happen.

Speaker 10 (12:47):
A lot has to happen. You have to get the ticket,
and you have to get to the bonus round. You
have to get the bonus correct and then the card
with your price has to be the million dollars.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
And that happened to Christina Derev from Stamford, Connecticut. Stamford, Connecticut,
and so she had that. And now let's go to
the end. This is this is the bonus round we
have here, right, and this is Ryan Seacrest talking to
her before the bonus round.

Speaker 10 (13:14):
What happens if you win a million dollars?

Speaker 1 (13:17):
I may be putting in my two weeks, but we won't.

Speaker 14 (13:19):
Tell her that yet.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Her boss was there, Yeah, her boss was there with her.
I know, guys, kind of fun. By the way, her
boyfriend wasn't there, but her boss was there with her,
which could be a whole cold place situation, right.

Speaker 10 (13:34):
Maybe who knows, but like's not think that.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Yeah, but I mean, why do you take your boss
with you and not your boyfriend? So anyway, let's jump
to the ending. Living things.

Speaker 15 (13:46):
That is the category you'll have ten seconds to try
and solve it Christina staring.

Speaker 10 (13:51):
At me, good luck, pack of coyotes.

Speaker 9 (14:00):
Now the audience, where as if she won a million,
took her a second for it the same.

Speaker 10 (14:10):
Game, but so excited.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
Then I went back to look.

Speaker 10 (14:13):
I was like, you know, I watch because we're a
big Jeopardy fans, so we'll come fortune comes after it.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
So we watched it a lot.

Speaker 10 (14:20):
I was like, I don't know if I've ever seen
anyone win the million dollars.

Speaker 5 (14:24):
And there's only been five.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
She's one of five people.

Speaker 10 (14:27):
They started in two thousand and eight, this million dollar prize,
and you know you had someone in twenty eight, thirteen, fourteen,
Then this is the best one. Melissa Joan Hart she
won a million dollars in Celebrity Jeopardy.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
Wow, that's amazing. She's the one person that didn't need that.
She's not plugging money. But here's what's great about this
is that I guess they didn't air the episode for
several months later. She signed a confidentiality agreement. She couldn't
tell anybody. She didn't tell her boyfriend.

Speaker 10 (14:58):
Her boyfriend didn't find until they were watching the show
this week. Can you imagine holding that from me? And
you know what maybe it was a good idea. Looks
I get a couple more months into this relationship until
before I tell him I have a million bucks.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
You know what she must have been like watching the
show with him, Like just sitting there smiling, looking at
him and looking for his reaction to everything throughout the show.
That must be so fun to know something like that and.

Speaker 14 (15:25):
Have the pre nup ready.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
That just reminds me, I'll stop it.

Speaker 10 (15:32):
I knew someone who won a big prize on Jeopardy.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
It was a teen Jeopardy.

Speaker 10 (15:36):
We were in high school, and we didn't know that
he won the entire thing until it aired, and he
came back to school and was like, live a normal
high school life, and then we were like, oh my god,
you're the teen Jeopardy champion.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
I never could do that. I'd tell people right away
that would be I'd be awful. I'd lose my million dollars. Now,
let's get to Jacqueline Carl with the nine to thirty News.
Jacqueline Larry.

Speaker 14 (15:59):
The federal government shut down and it's now in its
second day. House Speaker Mike Johnson went on social media
to blame the Democrats for the shutdown. Democratic leaders Hakim
Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are claiming Republicans shut down the
federal government quote because they do not want to protect
the healthcare of the American people. The Trump administration is
freezing about eighteen billion dollars in federal funding for two

(16:21):
enormous infrastructure projects in the New York City area, the.

Speaker 15 (16:24):
Second Avenue Subway Extension and Gateway Tunnel projector in the
home state of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House
Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Right after the government was shut down,
the White House Office of Management and Budget director wrote
on social media the money had been put on hold
for those projects to ensure funding is not flowing based
on unconstitutional DEI principles. Governor Kathy Hockel calls the move

(16:46):
political payback given Jeffries and Schumer are key Democrats involved
in government shutdown negotiations. I'm skat pringle wr.

Speaker 14 (16:54):
News, so I call this one pet fight club. According
to Odity Central, a young couple in India is getting
divorced because their pets don't get along. The wife says
her husband's dog harassed and.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Attacked her cat.

Speaker 14 (17:07):
The husband claims he told her before marriage not to
bring pets.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
That's when she should have gotten out of there.

Speaker 8 (17:14):
He says.

Speaker 14 (17:14):
Her cat would hover over the fish tank, creating tension
in the house for more than just the fish. The
couple originally bonded over their love for animals and got
married in December. They're they're now citing irreconcilable differences for
their divorce, which bring us to the age old question.
Would you kick your partner to the curb for your pet?

Speaker 1 (17:35):
No, yes, I knew you're gonna.

Speaker 14 (17:40):
I've never had, But you're kidding me.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Gonna I'm gonna throw me over. I can have colamas
behind me. They stand in line. Are you kidding me?
I'm only kidding. Let's go to the Let's go to
Wall Street at the opening bell.

Speaker 14 (17:54):
The opening bell is sponsored by Dime Community Bank. We've
got your bank coming to Lakewood, New Jersey, and twenty
two twenty six but serving New York for over one
hundred and sixty years. The DOW opened down four points,
the SMP opened up nineteen points, and the NASDAC opened
up one hundred and fifty two points.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
By the way, Jacqueline Pet Fight Club is a great idea.

Speaker 10 (18:16):
No, it's not.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
You should pitch that to the networks. What a great idea.
I don't want pet still fight, Okay, I'll pitch it then. Okay,
thanks so much, Jacqueline. A high tech way to track
down lost pets, and if you're still using Windows ten,
you need to hear some critical information. Coming up next

(18:38):
with tech expert Rich DeMuro. Speaking of high tech, how
about the CC Radio three. It's the almost everything radio
and it lives up to that name, especially with the
addition of Bluetooth. Just think about that. Just think about
all of the radio shows and podcasts you can hear

(19:00):
available from any smartphone or speaker. The CC Radio three,
by the way, has tremendous reception. If you're one of
the people that won one of these, you're listening to me, now,
doesn't it sound like I'm right there with you? Audio
quality for the spoken word sounds like the host is
right there. You can separate the base and treble controls,

(19:22):
and you can adjust to your perfect pitch to immerse
yourself in audio clarity, especially for news and talk radio.
It runs on the included power cord for an emergency
or a set of batteries for over one hundred and
seventy hours. Think about that when the power goes out.
To order the cc radio three, call ccrane at eight

(19:47):
hundred five two two eight eight sixty three once again,
that's eight hundred five two two eight eight sixty three,
or visit them online at ccrane dot com. That's ccr
an dot com. Every home should have a radio. By
the way, these are also available on Amazon. Hey, are

(20:07):
you still using Windows ten? If so, there's something important
you should know. For that, we're going to bring in
rich DeMuro from rich on Tech. He's heard Sunday nights
from eight to eleven on wor riches with us every
Thursday at this time, by the way, I should say
eight to eleven pm. Also followers rich on Tech on

(20:29):
Instagram at rich on tech on Instagram, where you can
ask them questions if you want to. Now, let's find
out good By the way, good morning, rich Let's find
out what's wrong with Windows ten.

Speaker 4 (20:40):
Rich Hey, good morning to you, Larry Well. It's been
ten years since Windows ten launched back in twenty fifteen,
and Microsoft is ending support on October fourteenth of this year.
That gives folks less than two weeks to figure out
what they want to do. Because if you don't get
your computer upgraded to Windows eleven, or you don't have
those security updates coming after the fourteenth, your computer is

(21:01):
going to be left vulnerable to anything that hackers fine,
because Microsoft will not be patching this. Their good news
is you've got a bunch of options. The first and
the easiest is to upgrade to Windows eleven. Move on
your merry way. Not every computer can support it, so
you have to figure out if your computer can support it.
There's a free app called PC health check that check

(21:21):
that will let you. But the easiest thing to do,
I think is just to extend and do what every
good American does, procrastinate for another year to go to
Windows Update, and you have an option to get one
more year of just security updates. And that way you
can decide in your time whether you want a new
computer or whatever else you're gonna do.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Right, You know us so well? You know I love
my ring camera, just love, love love it. I know
my wife loves it too, she looks at it all
the time. And this new search feature is even better.
Tell us about it.

Speaker 4 (21:56):
Yeah, a little bit of trivia for you, Larry. I
don't know if you knew this but when Ring came out,
their name was originally door Bot. I reviewed one of
the original doorbells from them, and they they thought that
that was too nerdy and techy. People didn't like it
because their home is is very sacred to them. So
Ring is what it eventually became. Anyway, much better, much

(22:16):
much better. A yeah, yeah, much better doorbot. It's too robotic,
it's just too like, yeah, it's weird.

Speaker 8 (22:23):
But these these.

Speaker 4 (22:24):
New cameras come with higher resolution. But they've got this
new feature that's going to work across even older cameras
called Search Party. So basically, if someone loses their dog,
they can report that in the Ring app, upload a
picture of their pet. The nearby cameras will use AI
to scan their footage to look for that pet. It
will alert the camera owner, and that camera owner can

(22:47):
then say, hmm, do I want to help out in
this search party or not? Do you want to hand
this footage over to the owner and help find this pet.
So Ring says over a million lost pet posts were
made in their app last year. Hopefully this should reunit
some folks, but there are some privacy concerns of course,
because AI is looking through your footage so you can
turn this feature off if you want. In the Ring app,

(23:09):
go to control center and look for search party.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
It is great that it finds lost pets.

Speaker 4 (23:14):
What about children, That's an great, great question, because of
course we know that AI can identify just about anything
with uncanny accuracy. Children, people that are wanted license plates
of cars. So I think Ring is gonna obviously they're
starting very slow with this because everyone wants to reunite

(23:35):
lost pets. Kids could be next. Those silver alerts for
seniors could be next. But Ring has not set any
of that. But I can see it going into that direction.
But Larry, you know what that means, surveillance society. We
have to be very careful about the line that we
ride here.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Yeah, but that's so important. I think that a lot
of people would be okay with that. We'll see, but
you can opt out right, if you don't want to,
you can opt out correct, Okay. A lot of price
hikes coming, huh.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
Oh my gosh, it's like, do we have enough time
to talk about all these? Okay, So if you have Peloton,
your subscription is going up anywhere from looks like five
to six dollars a month, So be on the lookout
for an email from them on that. And then Xbox
if you have the Xbox Game Pass. This is a
wild price hike, fifty percent price hike. So it goes

(24:25):
from I give my kid a hard time at this
at twenty dollars a month now it's going up to
thirty dollars a month.

Speaker 16 (24:32):
Now.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
That does give you a whole bunch of games that
you can get unlimited, you know, to play, and it's
less than the price of one movie ticket in many places.
But still all of these streaming services continue to raise
their prices. I'm not sure this is sustainable for the
average person to say I want to keep subscribing to
all of these different services when the prices just keep
going up.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
You know, I heard that Google is rolling out a
new voice assistant. I thought they already had one.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
You know, Google can be confusing at times. They throw
a lot of stuff at the wall. But you know,
the name of the game these days is Gemini AI
in everything. If you go to any Google product right now,
you will see that little twinkly star which means Gemini.
I just put on the new Google Pixel Watch, and
what does it have on the home screen on the
lock screen. It's got the little Gemini icon. So Gemini

(25:23):
is everywhere. And yes, Google is replacing Google Assistant on
its smart speakers with Gemini, which is going to be
much more conversational, much smarter, and you're finally gonna be
able to command your smart home stuff in a much
easier way. Turn off the lights, start the rumba, close
the blinds. All of the devices you already have are

(25:43):
many will already work with this, So look for it
to be replacing on your Google Home speakers very soon.
It's not going to happen overnight, it rolls out, but
I think you're gonna like the changes here.

Speaker 1 (25:55):
Man. Everything is changing so fast with the advent of
AI now, even face Book and Instagram.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
Right, yeah, this one is I mean, it makes a
lot of sense. Everyone thinks that Facebook is listening to
their phone conversations. That is not true. They have dispelled
that myth many many times. But starting December sixteenth, Meta
says they will be listening to your AI chatbot conversations.
When you talk to Meta AI. That's their version of

(26:23):
Google Gemini or Open AI's chat GBT. Meta has their
own AI chatbot. Anything you talk to that chatpot about
is open game for advertising in your feed. So if
you talk about hiking trails, you might see ads for
hiking boots in your Instagram feed or your Facebook feed.
There are some things that are off limits, sensitive topics,

(26:44):
pretty much everything that you talk about, Larry, religion. Wait
a second, have you been listening in I have, and
you do a great job, by the way, But yes,
it is some of these sensitive topics will not be
fair game, but pretty much anything else. And Larry, you
know people are talking about everything to AI. I mean

(27:04):
it is AI is therapists, AI is this?

Speaker 1 (27:07):
AI?

Speaker 4 (27:07):
Is that vacations, you know, your home, purchase, whatever you want.
This is going to be ripe for the picking for
personalized ads. It's very smart on Facebook's part, but users
cannot opt out, which is a little concerning.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
I know it's gotten so bizarre. I just saw AI
priest for confessions, so I don't know how that's gonna
work or if the Catholic churches.

Speaker 4 (27:28):
My gosh, that okay, that's a new one. There you
go see religion right off the top.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Thanks so much. Rich DeMuro rich on Tech has heard

Riches with us every Thursday at nine thirty five. Make
sure you sign up for his newsletter. Rich on tech
dot TV. Thanks a lot, Rich. When we come back,
my final thoughts, a recap of today's show, and the
talk back of the morning as we wind up another

(27:54):
minty in the morning on WOR let's get some final
thoughts from Larry leading may Earl candidates orin Mamdani was
on the view and if you've never seen the view,
sixty minutes it's not And a young, good looking socialist, Wow,
that's just candy to the woe gaggling hens on the view.

(28:16):
So I wasn't expecting much, but I'll tell you what,
I was pleasantly surprised, not by most of them, but
it was refreshing that Elisa Farah finally asked the question
that should have been asked months ago by the so
called political reporters in the New York media who should

(28:37):
be ashamed right now, Farah asked, are you going to
make a formal apology to the men and women in
the NYPD for calling them racists, anti queer and a
threat to public safety? That was a quote, and he
said he was going to have individual conversations with members

(28:58):
of the NYPD never said he apologized at all. And
when Whoopee and Joy tried to jump in and tell
Zorn that he had a nice smile and how wonderful
he smelled, Alisa Fara pressed again, are you going to apologize?
And he said yes, But then he said, I will

(29:21):
also apologize to the Muslim Americans that were illegally surveiled
and the brown and black New Yorkers who were the
victims of police brutality. Some apology, it sounds like he
was condemning them in his apology. In other words, he's
not going to apologize at all. And what is worse,

(29:42):
he may feel exactly the same way today as he
did a couple of years ago when he said those
horrible things, and it took a host from the view
of all places to press him on that and expose him.
The New York press course, should be ashamed of themselves.

(30:03):
Do better. This is too important for you all to
try and be friends with the cool kid in school.
Coming up next to Mark Simone, he welcomes economist Steve
Moore and wr host of Fox Across America, Jimmy Fayla.
Plus listen for the keyword after the ten o'clock News,

(30:24):
then head to seven to ten WR dot com for
your chance at one thousand dollars. Now a recap of
today's show. WR White House correspondent John Decker thinks we
could see an end to the government shutdown in the
very near future.

Speaker 16 (30:41):
My read on what the Vice President said yesterday has
to do with his belief that there will be additional
Democrats that agree to the continuing resolution. There are three
and Republicans need five more, and the Vice President believes
that through the conversations that the administration is having with Democrats,
they can get those five additional votes.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
I certainly hope that's true. ABC News Crime and Terrorism
analyst Brad Jarrett thinks social media exposure could be a
leading cause for the uptick in political violence we've seen recently.

Speaker 17 (31:14):
This whole idea of excessive social media online presence really
does have a toxic effect on kids, and if you
look at the level of depression, anxiety, and other behavioral
maladies that kids have developed in the last ten plus years,
into some of its attributable to being online.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
Political commentator and former NASA County executive Laura Karen believes
that Eric Adams played his cards right, given the tough
situation that he's in.

Speaker 5 (31:44):
Well, when he did drop out of the race, he
did not endorse anybody, And that's kind of a smart
way to get some leverage. If you come out of
the gate endorsing someone, you have no more power. But
if you have not endorsed anyone yet, people are going
to try to curry favor for you to you, They're
going to offer things for you. You're in a much better
position to make a deal that's good for you, and
I think that's exactly what he did.

Speaker 1 (32:05):
We talked sports with bioethicist and die hard Red Sox
fan doctor Arthur Kaplan, who shared how he navigates life
with a Yankees loving wife.

Speaker 8 (32:16):
I'll be watching it downstairs.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
Can you hear her cheering when the Yankees wain?

Speaker 8 (32:22):
Can you hear it?

Speaker 11 (32:23):
Now?

Speaker 1 (32:24):
Do you stay downstairs? And do you sleep downstairs? Just
so you don't have to say, I don't have to.

Speaker 8 (32:29):
Sleep downstairs, but I am responsible. I suspect from my
own meals.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
We love how our listeners can always find the positive
side of a story. Here is the talk back of
the Morning and Winter of Amenti in the Morning.

Speaker 8 (32:43):

Speaker 13 (32:45):

when the robot delivers your food, you don't even have
to tip him. He won't know what it is.
