One Man. One Mission. Justice. In the Hunt for the Gilgo Beach Serial Killer.Rodney K. Harrison's life could have gone the way of the drug dealers he grew up with in South Jamaica, Queens. Instead, a twist of fate and relentless drive led him to become the NYPD's highest-ranking uniformed officer and, later, Police Commissioner of Suffolk County on Long Island—where he engineered the arrest of the elusive Gilgo Beach serial killer.Harrison survived a false arrest as a teenager and later dodged bullets as an undercover in Brooklyn. He calmed the fallout of Eric Garner's chokehold death on Staten Island, worked shoulder-to-shoulder with outspoken community leaders in Harlem, brought Jam Master Jay's killers to justice, removed bricks from the 9/11 Twin Towers, dealt with looters during the pandemic on the streets of New York—and always advocated for every victim.This real-life Blue Bloods true crime story chronicles the triumphs, controversies, politics, and dangers that define modern policing in America's largest city.Harrison shares these true crime stories:The harrowing night his undercover partner was shot on the street.An insider's view of the investigations that shaped headlines—from Jam Master Jay to his career-defining case, putting the Gilgo Beach serial killer (he called him "the Devil that walks among us") behind bars, and the personal sacrifices and moral dilemmas behind the badge.More than a cop's story—a rare, unfiltered look at crime, justice, and resilience in New York.

Episode 85: In this episode, Timalyn shares how tens of millions of taxpayers may be due a refund from the IRS. Unfortunately, the refund won't be automatic, and there is a clock ticking. That is why Timalyn is discussing it in today's episode. What happened?During the COVID-19 pandemic era, the IRS continued to assess taxpayers' accounts with penalties and interest. Well, the commissioner and the United States have found them to be wrong in doing so. That is the short version of Abdo v. Commissioner, 162 T.C. (2024), and Kwong vs. United States, 179 Fed Cl. 382 (Nov. 2025)The courts ruled that the COVID-19 pandemic era was a disaster period, from January 20th, 2020, to July 10th, 2023. This means that under §7508A(d) the IRS was not to impose penalties and interest. The IRS National Taxpayer Advocate stated that “tens of millions of taxpayers may be entitled to refunds or abatements of penalties and interest that the IRS assessed during the nearly 3.5-year COVID-19 federal disaster period.”Who could this affect? The IRS may owe refunds to individual taxpayers, small businesses, trusts, estates, and corporations. This could also affect taxpayers who filed their international information returns late. What should you do? Timalyn believes the IRS will appeal the ruling in Kwong. Meaning refunds could be held up for months or even years. However, to protect their right to claim the refund, taxpayers must file protective claims with Form 843. These must be filed by July 10th, 2026. How do I know if I am eligible?If you were assessed certain penalties from 2020 to the beginning of 2023, Timalyn says that you're eligible. The easiest way to confirm this is on your tax account transcript. You can locate this by logging into your IRS.gov account. Timalyn wrote an article that walks you through the process that you can check out here - https://www.americasfavoriteea.com/post/how-to-get-irs-transcript-online-3-steps. You will look to see if penalties and interest were assessed. If they were, then you should consider filing a protective claim. If you already feel overwhelmed, remember, you do have the right to representation. A tax professional with Form 2848, Power of Attorney, and Declaration of Representative on file with the IRS can do this for you. Only an Enrolled Agent, such as Timalyn, Certified Public Accountant, or Tax Attorney, can have a Form 2848 and be your tax power of attorney. Timalyn also shares a company that she has taken a look at, Penalty Back. They are assisting taxpayers with seeing if they are eligible and filing the protective claim on their behalf. ***Timalyn will receive a commission if the company is successful and gets your penalty abated. You can check them out here - https://penaltyback.com/r/americasfavoriteeaNeed Tax Help Now?If you need answers to your tax debt questions, book a consultation with Timalyn via her Bowens Tax Solutions website.

The 8am hour of Monday's Mac & Cube started off with the question of the magazine you wish you were featured in & whether or not we should expand to 24-teams; then, Josh Pate, alleged future Commissioner of College Football, tells us why the bipartisan bill is the one thing you should be paying attention to, why a 24-team Playoff isn't the best way to help out CFB, why "meaningful games" & "meaningless bowl games" are being completely misused, and what LSU will be in 2026; and finally, Auburn snags a massive commit in Layton von Brandt. "McElroy & Cubelic In The Morning" airs 7am-10am weekdays on WJOX-94.5!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's Headlines: Trump's personal aide Natalie Harp — dubbed the "Human Printer" by the Wall Street Journal — follows the president around with a printer for his Truth Social posts and is responsible for his midnight rage posting, including the Obama monkeys video, because no one else on his comms team has any visibility into what goes out at 2am. Trump returned from China having spent most of his time complimenting Xi Jinping's height, claiming Xi promised to stop arming Iran while continuing to buy their oil, getting nowhere on tariffs, and receiving a firm warning to back off Taiwan — which makes 70% of the world's semiconductors — with the one concrete outcome being China agreeing to buy 200 Boeing jets, which sent Boeing's stock down 4% because the market wanted 500. Kash Patel, meanwhile, used an FBI work trip to Hawaii to do a "VIP snorkel" around the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor where snorkeling is explicitly prohibited, and is separately being reported to have padded the FBI's arrest statistics by adding people to the Most Wanted List right before they're captured. The FDA commissioner resigned after the administration approved blueberry, mango, and menthol flavored vaping pods over his objections, and RFK Jr.'s chief spokesperson quit the next day for the same reason — flavored vapes being, apparently, everyone's line in the sand. On a darker public health note, ProPublica found that the growing MAHA-driven trend of parents rejecting Vitamin K shots for newborns — not a vaccine, just a blood-clotting intervention — has led to a measurable increase in infant deaths from preventable brain bleeds. Two House members have been missing for weeks and are both running for reelection, PCOS has been renamed PMOS because the old name caused decades of misdiagnosis, Stephen Miller's wife is in talks with Paramount for a podcast deal, and King Charles announced the UK will finally prioritize banning conversion therapy, which several prime ministers have promised and never delivered.
