Bo Dietl, Red Apple Podcast Host, calls in for his weekly Tuesday morning hit with Sid to rant about the upcoming mayoral race in New York City and his strong opposition to Zohran Mamdani, whom he described as a dangerous, radical candidate. Dietl praises Curtis Sliwa as the only contender who aligns with Donald Trump's values on law and order, opposing bail reform and sanctuary city policies. He criticizes other candidates for attacking one another instead of exposing Mamdani's record, urging financial and public support for efforts like his NYC ABM (Anyone But Mamdani) campaign. Dietl also ties the issue to broader national and international concerns, drawing parallels to rising socialism, the threat of crime, and support for Israel after October 7. He closes by calling on New Yorkers to fight for their city rather than flee, insisting that Curtis Sliwa—despite critics—offers incorruptible leadership focused on public safety.

(Sep 8, 2025) Last summer, over half the teachers in the St. Regis Falls central school district quit and took jobs in other school districts. One year later, with a leadership change, the small school is looking to rebuild and focus on quality education. Also: Gov. Hochul is declaring a health emergency to help New Yorkers get COVID vaccines.
After using her untrained Command Voice to compel armed agents into forgetting their existence, Lyra learns the terrifying truth about her ancestry: she's descended from the White Siren, a woman so powerful that the Order was formed specifically to stop her. As Kai reveals that her abilities could rival those of the reality-altering Siren who nearly destroyed Salem, their supernatural connection deepens into something that transcends normal attraction. But when the Council of First Voices—transcended Sirens existing between dimensions—contacts Lyra through impossible means, they offer her a choice: embrace unlimited power or remain trapped by human limitations.Their recruitment attempt is revealed as a distraction when thousands of New Yorkers begin moving in synchronized precision toward the radio district, all under supernatural compulsion. With sunset approaching and a city-wide broadcast planned from her own station, Lyra must choose between fleeing to safety with Kai or facing an enemy whose power dwarfs her own. The lesson the Council promised is about to begin, and the entire tri-state area hangs in the balance.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Maud Maron, running as a Republican in the 2025 Manhattan District Attorney race against Democrat incumbent Alvin Bragg, calls into the program to stress that Bragg prioritizes ideology over public safety, acting like a social worker instead of a prosecutor. She criticizes the Democratic Socialists of America's influence on city politics, arguing that their policies—such as defunding the police and closing Rikers—endanger New Yorkers. Maron shares her own political shift away from the Democratic Party, likening it to being “mugged by reality,” and emphasizes the importance of voting in the upcoming November election, especially given low turnout in off-years. She calls for stronger leadership to restore safety in New York, denounces Bragg's prosecution of Donald Trump as political abuse, and urges Manhattan voters to rally behind her campaign for a safer city.

Curtis Sliwa, Republican running for Mayor of New York City, joins Sid live in-studio to shut down rumors that he's dropping out of the mayoral race or being offered a job by Donald Trump. He insists he's the only true Republican candidate, highlighting his grassroots campaigning across the outer boroughs, record fundraising, and strong support from everyday New Yorkers. Sliwa blasts Andrew Cuomo, Eric Adams, and socialist challenger Zohran Mamdani as corrupt, weak, or out of touch, while positioning himself as the fighter for working-class people, law and order, and tax cuts. He outlines plans to end congestion pricing, remove speed cameras, oppose sanctuary city policies, and crack down on crime. He also touts his growing team, endorsements, and backing from both Democrats who dislike Cuomo and Republicans energized by his candidacy. Confident and combative, Sliwa pledges he cannot be bullied out of the race and vows to take back New York City in 2026. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is Zohran Mamdani really the champion of New York City's working class — or just the darling of wealthy, progressive elites? This episode of The Brian Nichols Show explodes the myth, digs into the data, and exposes what's really behind Mamdani's rise to political stardom. Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS The media paints Mamdani as the voice of everyday New Yorkers, but the numbers tell a different story. We uncover where his support really comes from — gentrified neighborhoods, affluent transplants, and “Hot Girls for Zoran” hype squads — not the struggling working families he claims to represent. If you want the truth the headlines won't touch, this is the eye-opening breakdown you've been waiting for. We dive into campaign finance filings, voting demographics, and neighborhood-by-neighborhood results to reveal how Mamdani's supposed “grassroots” movement leans heavily on rich liberal enclaves. The conversation exposes how the branding of working-class authenticity holds up against cold, hard data — and why it matters for voters far beyond New York City. But this episode doesn't stop at peeling back the curtain. We examine Mamdani's most radical policies — rent freezes, $30 minimum wage promises, and anti-charter school agendas — and explain how, despite their feel-good messaging, these proposals could devastate both working-class communities and new, entry-level professionals in NYC. What happens if Mamdani actually wins? We explore the real-world consequences: from businesses preparing to flee, to crime and policing concerns, to the inevitable “wake-up call” moment that could redefine New York's future. Could Mamdani's victory trigger the political and economic collapse of America's most iconic city? If you've ever wondered how flashy socialist rhetoric collides with the real-life struggles of working-class families, you can't miss this one. Buckle up, because this isn't just about New York politics—it's a warning for every city in America. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

Curtis Sliwa, Republican running for Mayor of New York City, joins Sid live in-studio to talk about the mayoral race and his concerns regarding his opponent Zohran Mamdani's fundraising sources, speculating on the involvement of 'dark money' from abroad. Sliwa highlights the significant differences in donor bases, emphasizing that most of his donations come from New Yorkers, while Mamdani's are largely from out-of-state. Sliwa also critiques the current state of New York City under the leadership of Mayor Eric Adams and former Mayor Bill de Blasio, calling for a return to better management and public safety. Additionally, he discusses potential future plans, including the appointment of Ray Kelly as police commissioner and the importance of meritocracy over DEI in city policies.

Breaking: shooting in Minneapolis. Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are engaged. So we have to talk about it. Will Smith is faking his audience. Zohran Mamdani is promising New Yorkers free stuff if they only elect him. Problem is plenty of places have already tried that, and it has failed miserably. A Cuban-born businessman, Joseph Hernandez, decided to run against Mamdani. Hernandez knows the dangers of a socialist government and doesn't want to see it happen in America.

From the publisher: New York entered 1986 as a city reborn. Record profits on Wall Street sent waves of money splashing across Manhattan, bringing a battered city roaring back to life.But it also entered 1986 as a city whose foundation was beginning to crack. Thousands of New Yorkers were sleeping in the streets, addicted to drugs, dying of AIDS, or suffering from mental illnesses. Nearly one-third of the city's Black and Hispanic residents were living below the federal poverty line. Long-simmering racial tensions threatened to boil over.The events of the next four years would split the city open. Howard Beach. Black Monday. Tawana Brawley. The crack epidemic. The birth of ACT UP. The Central Park jogger. The release of Do the Right Thing. And a cast of outsized characters—Ed Koch, Donald Trump, Al Sharpton, Spike Lee, Rudy Giuliani, Larry Kramer—would compete to shape the city's future while building their own mythologies.The Gods of New York is a kaleidoscopic and deeply immersive portrait of a city whose identity was suddenly up for grabs: Could it be both the great working-class city that lifted up immigrants from around the world and the money-soaked capital of global finance? Could it retain a civic culture—a common idea of what it meant to be a New Yorker—when the rich were building a city of their own and vast swaths of its citizens were losing faith in the systems meant to protect them? New York City was one thing at the dawn of 1986; it would be something very different as 1989 came to a close. This is the story of how that happened.Information on Jonathan Mahler's book can be found athttps://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/568081/the-gods-of-new-york-by-jonathan-mahler/Support our show and Reach out and Read of Tampa Bay at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistoryAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

David Waldman is older than he used to be! By an entire year somehow! Congratulations! Also… Armando! Greg Dworkin is completely different of course, and so is his Raft O' Stories™, although they could all be a distraction from the real story. The Zohran Mamdanimentum keeps growing, because it's fun and Zohran is having fun and New Yorkers are a fun-loving bunch. Similarly, Gavin Newsomentum is building, even though there are Dems out there whose anxiety builds when they see too much fun going on and would like to remind you here in August 2025 that you don't “have to” vote for Gavin in November 2028 if you don't want to. Expect Trump to drop the word “CUCK” into his posts soon in order to get ahead of Newsom comparisons. Or Trump could just have Gavin arrested. Time for some legal problems for Chris Christie. Time for some legal problems for every federal judge in Maryland. Gorsuch and Kavanaugh note that none of these people are either of them. Kilmar Abrego Garcia could inspire this administration to reinstitute crucifixion. Let's pour one out for two Fulton County Dems, Dana Barrett and Mo Ivory, protectors of democracy and presently unincarcerated. Trump will obviously send troops into Chicago. Not because he needs to, but because he wants to. Cheating is so fun that it might not matter if it actually works. Soon we will all have something to cry about. US consumers with prime credit are starting to fall behind in their payments. Millions are being pushed off of Medicaid and Obamacare, no matter what they are being told now. And COVID isn't going away, but the vaccine is. Years of effort have finally paid off. Nancy Mace has finally worn out her welcome.
Nearly all New York schools are ready to prohibit cell phones this year. Also, longtime New York State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli has a Democratic primary opponent. Plus, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the department was desperate for applicants six months ago. Last week, she swore in the largest class since 2016. And finally, we hear from New Yorkers in Manhattan's East Harlem neighborhood.
Ralph welcomes Ben Cohen (anti-war activist and ice cream entrepreneur) to discuss his new campaign, "Up in Arms," which advocates for a common-sense Pentagon budget. Then, Ralph speaks to Guardian columnist Arwa Mahdawi about her recent piece: "When will we finally admit: the Gaza death toll is higher than we've been told."Ben Cohen is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and longtime anti-war activist. He is a co-founder of the ice cream company Ben & Jerry's and a prominent supporter of progressive causes. He is co-founder of Up In Arms, a public education and advocacy campaign pushing for a common-sense approach to military budgeting. In May of this year, Ben was arrested by Capitol Police after he interrupted Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s testimony by screaming,”Congress kills poor kids in Gaza by buying bombs and pays for it by kicking kids off Medicaid.”We're up in arms because the government has taken the kindness, the heart, the soul of the American people and essentially replaced it with so many bombs that there's no rational use for them. They've turned us all into mass murderers.Ben CohenYou know, politicians starting from Reagan are fond of saying “a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.” And then they turn around and spend $100 billion a year on a nuclear arsenal that's capable of blowing up the entire world several times over. So they say one thing and they do another. I mean, a nuclear arsenal capable of blowing up the entire world several times over? That's not deterrence. That's delusion.Ben CohenI just go back to the moral issue of our time, which is Gaza—two-thirds of the American people don't support continuing to arm Israel. And we need to make our politicians pay the price for continuing to arm Israel… We have a midterm election coming up. If your guy voted to continue to essentially facilitate the genocide, vote them out.Ben CohenWhen you have more money than is needed, you tend to invite corruption, cost overruns, machinery that doesn't work, and I would advise that you look into why the GAO and the Pentagon auditors are being asked to do fewer audits of the military budget. Because there's almost a direct correlation between throwing money at a government program (especially at that scale) and corruption. And corruption is understandable to everybody. It's the number one political issue all over the world, when the pollsters poll.Ralph NaderArwa Mahdawi is a columnist for the Guardian and author of Strong Female Lead: Lessons from Women in Power. Here is her recent piece on the genocide in Gaza: “When will we finally admit: the Gaza death toll is higher than we've been told” (The Guardian, August 8, 2025)To be fair, the New York Times, Washington Post, and Wall Street Journal have published some pretty devastating reports from their reporters in that area. They've put out some devastating features on what's going on [in Gaza], but it doesn't translate into editorial denunciation by these papers. And it doesn't translate into taking the next step and doing what they would do in other conflicts around the world where there isn't so much prejudice and domestic pressureRalph NaderI'm an opinion writer, but as journalists, you're always supposed to report facts. And the fact is: we have absolutely no idea how many people are dead in the Gaza Strip. But there are plenty of studies (which I reference in the article—one Lancet peer-reviewed study, one letter to the Lancet by a highly-respected scientist, one empirical study by Michael Spagat) which show that the death count is a lot higher. So I truly believe that unless you're saying “the official figure from the Ministry of Health is around 60,000 but studies show it is probably much higher,” then that's just journalistic malpractice.Arwa MahdawiI think there's just this instinct to believe that Palestinians are lying and Israelis are telling the truth. And it also goes back to…this isn't just Israel's war, this is America's war as well. And this desire to see America as the good guys—we're the good guys, the Palestinians are the bad guys. And to have this black-and-white narrative where, obviously, we're the good guys, you know, and so if the Palestinian narrative casts doubt on that, then it must be wrong.Arwa MahdawiI always suggest that people write to the media outlets and say that they want to see more Palestinian narratives, they want the media outlets to voice their concern that foreign reporters are not being let in, that more aid workers are not being let in, that pictures are not coming out.Arwa MahdawiThere are very few pictures coming out of the scale of this destruction in Gaza, but when you see the ones that do come out, it is very, very obvious that there are more than 60,000 people dead.But there seems to be this lack of curiosity with some of my peers. Why aren't they asking, “Why aren't we seeing more pictures?” There should be nonstop outrage that their press freedom is being stifled like this and so many Palestinian journalists are being slaughtered.Arwa MahdawiNews 8/22/25* Last Thursday, during an event in her Masscusetts congressional district, Congresswoman Katherine Clark – who holds the position of House Minority Whip, making her the number two Democrat in the House – called Israel's campaign in Gaza a “genocide,” per Axios. According to Zeteo, this makes Clark the 14th member of Congress to use the “g word.” Lest she be accused of bravery however, Clark quickly walked back her comments. In a statement to the Jewish News Syndicate, Clark said “last week, while attending an event in my district, I repeated the word ‘genocide' in response to a question…I want to be clear that I am not accusing Israel of genocide.” This incident illustrates the cross-cutting pressures facing Democratic Party leaders. This divide will be on the agenda again at the DNC meeting on August 26th, where among other issues, party leaders will vote on competing resolutions to lay out the Democrats' position on Gaza. Allison Minnerly, the progressive DNC delegate sponsoring the resolution to end arms shipments to Israel, is quoted saying “Our voters…are saying that they do not want U.S. dollars to enable further death and starvation anywhere across the world, particularly in Gaza…I don't think it should be a hard decision for us to say that clearly,” per the Intercept.* Even as Democrats wrestle with their position on Gaza, the politics are clearly shifting. The Reject AIPAC coalition has released a new statement saying that among Democrats, AIPAC is now a “toxic pariah.” As evidence of this, Reject AIPAC cites the fact that only 14 House Democrats attended the AIPAC-sponsored Israel trip this year. According to Mondoweiss, “In 2023, the lobbying group brought 24 House Dems to Israel over recess. In 2019, over 40 attended.” Reject AIPAC also cites the fact that Reps. Valerie Foushee and Maxine Dexter, both recipients of millions of AIPAC dollars, voted to block arms to Israel and Foushee is even now rejecting AIPAC money. As these small victories mount, the horizon of possibility for movement within the party grows ever wider.* Last week, Tom Artiom Alexandrovich – a senior department head in Israel's National Cyber Directorate – was arrested in a “multi-agency operation targeting child sex predators,” in Clark County, Nevada according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. According to Reuters, “Alexandrovich faces a felony charge of luring or attempting to lure a child or mentally ill person to commit a sex act ‘with use of computer technology.'” Yet, inexplicably, Alexandrovich was released by U.S. authorities and is back in Israel. This set off a firestorm in the U.S., with many accusing the Trump administration of facilitating Alexandrovich's release. The State Department was forced to issue a statement denying these claims, stating that Alexandrovich "did not claim diplomatic immunity and was released by a state judge…Any claims that the U.S. government intervened are false." The AP adds that the “Israeli Embassy in Washington and the Israeli Prime Minister's Office did not immediately return messages.” Disturbingly, the mainstream media seems to be purposely ignoring this case. While it has been covered by the Guardian, the Times of Israel, and Haaretz, there has been zero coverage in the New York Times or Washington Post, or ABC, NBC, or CBS. This media blackout adds fuel to the speculation that this case is being tamped down by the administration for political reasons.* Another troubling story regarding minors on the internet comes to us from Mark Zuckerberg's Meta AI. According to Reuters, internal documents from Meta Platforms detail “policies on chatbot behavior…[permitting] the company's artificial intelligence creations to ‘engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual,' generate false medical information and help users argue that Black people are ‘dumber than white people.'” Former Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan called these reports “disturbing” and cited a legal complaint filed by the FTC to the Justice Department against Snap in January, under her leadership, “charging that [Snap's] AI chatbot was creating risks and harms for young users.” Khan noted that the “DOJ hasn't filed the case or taken any steps to protect these kids,” and demanded that “Any lawmaker concerned about big tech's abuse of kids should ask what is going on.” The administration's lack of action on these issues indicates that despite their rhetorical inveighing against the tech industry, they are treating SIlicon Valley with the same kid gloves they use for the rest of corporate America, even when it affects minors.* In more positive news from abroad, the Washington Post reports that between 2022 and 2024, Mexico lifted a stunning 8.3 million residents out of poverty. This 18% drop in poverty includes a 23% decrease in extreme poverty and a 16% drop in moderate poverty. According to experts, this remarkable achievement is the result of the policies of former President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, or AMLO, and his successor Claudia Sheinbaum, such as tripling the minimum wage and instituting a raft of social programs to aid “senior citizens, unemployed youth, students, farmers and people with disabilities.” President Sheinbaum is now plowing ahead with a new project – producing a “small, 100% electric, accessible [EV],” called the “Olinia,” to be fully manufactured and assembled in Mexico, per Mexico News Daily.* Turning to domestic politics, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik finally showed up in her district on Monday after an extended period of avoiding public appearances. At a ceremony honoring a late Clinton County clerk in Plattsburgh, Stefanik was drowned out by cries of “‘You sold us out!', ‘Shame!', and ‘Unseal the Epstein files!', along with a “steady stream of boos,” according to the Daily Beast. Stefanik “left the podium after speaking for less than a minute,” and when she returned, she was booed again. Stefanik's chronic absence and chilly reception is a bad sign for her gubernatorial aspirations. In the months since she has held a town hall, her constituents held a mock town hall where they addressed an empty chair, per WRGB, and New York Democrats AOC and Paul Tonko held town halls in her district, per the Albany Times-Union.* In more political news from New York, disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo is explicitly seeking to woo New York Republicans in his independent bid for Mayor of New York City. POLITICO reports that at a fundraiser at media mogul Jimmy Finkelstein's Southampton estate, Cuomo told the crowd that he agrees with President Trump that the “goal is to stop Mamdani.” To this end, he is trying to convince Republicans that they would be “wasting [their] vote on [Curtis] Sliwa,” the Republican nominee for Mayor, “because he'll never be a serious candidate.” Cuomo also implied that he is open to an alliance with Trump, telling the crowd “Let's put it this way: I knew the president very well.” Dora Pekec, a spokesperson for the Zohran campaign, is quoted saying “Since he's too afraid to say it to New Yorkers' faces, we'll make it clear: Andrew Cuomo IS Donald Trump's choice for mayor.”* In Texas, state Democrats have returned to the state, ending their attempt to defeat Governor Abbott's mid-decade redistricting scheme by denying the legislature a quorum. In a statement Gene Wu, chairman of the Texas House Democratic Caucus, said "We killed the corrupt special session, withstood unprecedented surveillance and intimidation, and rallied Democrats nationwide to join this existential fight for fair representation — reshaping the entire 2026 landscape," per the BBC. The legislature is now expected to approve the redrawn congressional maps; the state Democrats plan to continue fighting them in the courts. California has vowed to redraw their own maps to compensate for the expected loss of five Democrat-held seats in Texas. New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire and Maryland are also considering their own redistricting plans. Vice President JD Vance was deployed to Indiana to pressure Republicans in that state to redraw their maps to favor Republicans as well, per the IndyStar. It is a sad state of affairs that American politics has been reduced to such naked power grabbing plots, but here we are.* In local news, the federal occupation of Washington, D.C. continues to deepen. CBS reports the governors of at least six Republican-led states are sending contingents from their National Guards to the capital. These include Mississippi and Louisiana, West Virginia, South Carolina, Ohio and Tennessee. Just what these troops will do in Washington remains unclear. Tennessee Governor Bill Lee, who is sending 160 troops, cited “monument security” and “traffic control” among their official responsibilities. The federal agents on the ground, with little to do – the DOJ itself reports as violent crime is at a 30-year low in the District – seem to be mostly just harassing residents. The Daily Beast reports ICE tore down a banner and replaced it with a dildo. A local, Amanda Moore, posted a photo of 15 federal agents calling an ambulance for a drunk girl in Dupont Circle. And, while the Lever reports D.C. corporate lobbyists pushed for the occupation, it is wreaking havoc on local businesses; Rolling Stone reports reservations at D.C. restaurants are down between 25 and 31%, to take just one example. We can only hope that this pointless, destructive farce of quasi-fascistic political theater ends sooner rather than later.* Finally, investigative reporter and Iraq war veteran Seth Harp is out with a new book – The Fort Bragg Cartel: Drug Trafficking and Murder in the Special Forces – which details the double murder of Master Sergeant Billy Lavigne and Chief Warrant Officer Timothy Dumas, along with the “many more unexplained deaths…other murders connected to drug trafficking in elite units, and dozens of fatal overdoses,” at Fort Bragg in North Carolina. Among other remarkable discoveries, Harp “describes a U.S. special forces k9 [unit] that was given titanium dentures and encouraged to feast on human brains in the field,” in the words of publisher and producer Chris Wade. Remember these titanium dentures whenever you hear that there is no money to pay for critical social programs. The money is there. The political will is not.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

“How could this owl, who was born in captivity, lived his whole life in a cage, how could he possibly survive? He's going to be dead in a few days. That's what everybody thought.” – Christine Mott In February 2023, a Eurasian eagle-owl named Flaco made headlines—and captured hearts—when he escaped from his small enclosure at the Central Park Zoo. Born in captivity and unable to fly or hunt, Flaco defied every expectation. In just weeks, he taught himself to soar across the Manhattan skyline, hunt for his own food, and live as freely as an owl could in a city of concrete and glass. For more than a year, New Yorkers spotted him perched in Central Park, on high-rises, even outside apartment windows—cheering him on as a symbol of resilience and freedom. Today's guest, attorney and lifelong animal advocate Christine Mott, has immortalized Flaco's story in her new children's book, Free Bird: Flaco the Owl's Dreams Take Flight. Told from Flaco's perspective, the book celebrates courage, hope, and the right of all animals to live free—without cages or confinement—while gently encouraging young readers to see captivity through an animal's eyes. This conversation is about Flaco's extraordinary journey, the lessons he left behind, and how one small owl sparked big changes for animals in New York and beyond.

This week, Chris Faga and Chris Stanley dive headfirst into the weirdest corners of pop culture, politics, and AI paranoia. From brownies in the bathroom to Epstein's lost VH1 show, they unravel conspiracy-laced nostalgia before spiraling into a full-on ChatGPT5.0 meltdown. The guys question when the modern internet really began, whether AI is just the middle segment of a human centipede, and why Google feels completely broken now. Plus: Kim Jong Un, Omar Gooding vs. Cam'ron, and Chris trying (but failing) to seduce artificial intelligence.Topics Include:Brownies in the BathroomEpstein's Lost VH1 Show When Did the Modern Internet Really Start?From Epstein Foot Massages to ProstitutionKim Jong Un Check-InChatGPT 5.0 ArrivesThe New York Times vs. ChatGPTChatGPT PsychosisWhy You Can't Make Money Off AIFaga Tries to Seduce GrokThe AI Flood on RedditWhere ChatGPT Actually Scrapes Data FromWhy Google Feels BrokenDoes Everyone Really Need AI?BodegAI: The Corner Store BotAI as the Middle Segment of the Human CentipedeOmar Gooding vs. Cam'ron — Prank of the century?DON'T FORGET TO WATCH FAGA'S NEW SPECIAL "BURN AFTER SAYING" ON THE HSR YOUTUBE PAGE!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxIHJU2LotUSupport Our Sponsors!https://yokratom.com/ - Check out Yo Kratom (the home of the $60 kilo) for all your kratom needs!https://www.smallbatchcigar.com/ Use code GAS10 discount code for 10% off plus 5% rewards points!https://fatdickhotchocolate.net/ Get you a fat dick at fatdickhotchocolate.netHigh Society Radio is 2 native New Yorkers who started from the bottom and didn't raise up much.

This is the All Local noon update for August 19, 2025.
TALK TO ME, TEXT ITTechnology's darker side takes center stage in this eye-opening exploration of how our digital world sometimes veers into disturbing territory. We kick things off with a lighthearted gripe about workplace dress codes during VIP tours before diving into three technological developments that should have us all concerned.First, the heartbreaking story of a 76-year-old man with cognitive impairments who died while attempting to meet "Big Sis Billy" – an AI chatbot he believed was a real woman living in New York City. Created by Meta in collaboration with Kendall Jenner, this digital persona sent flirtatious messages and convinced the vulnerable senior to travel to meet "her" despite his family's desperate pleas. The tragic outcome raises profound questions about AI ethics and the protection of vulnerable users in our increasingly digital world.The conversation shifts to our collective screen addiction, with shocking statistics revealing Americans spend over six hours daily on their devices – scrolling the equivalent of 86 miles annually with their thumbs! New Yorkers aren't far behind at 81 miles per year. With the average person checking their phone 58 times daily (half during work hours), we're confronting a dependency that's reshaping our attention spans and productivity. But what alternatives exist when our devices have become essential to daily life?Perhaps most alarming is the development of "pregnancy robots" equipped with artificial wombs in China. This technology, projected to cost around $13,000-$14,000, could potentially carry human fetuses for ten months before "giving birth." While presented as a breakthrough for infertile couples, the ethical implications are staggering and largely unexplored. What boundaries should we establish as reproductive technology advances to this frontier?Have you experienced similar concerns about our technological future? Share your thoughts on these developments and let us know your personal digital boundaries or pet peeves. The conversation about technology's role in our lives has never been more important!Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

In this episode, Kelly is joined by Jonathan Mahler! He is a staff writer for The New York Times Magazine, his sports journalism has been featured in the book “The Best American Sports Writing”, and he is the author of two books: “Ladies and Gentlemen, The Bronx is Burning” as well as “The Challenge.” And his third book “The Gods of New York” is available now wherever you buy books! Join them, as Jonathan tells kelly a bit about where he's from, and his profession. Kelly asks about raising kids in New York City, and what age did he think is ok for kids to ride the subway. Kelly asks Jonathan to give him a background of New York City leading up to the 1980s. Jonathan tells him what it was like to cover the 2016 presidential campaign, and how he was inspired to write this book. Jonathan tells Kelly about some of the stories that were going on during the second half of the 1980s, and Kelly talks about how he remembers living through a lot of these headlines. Kelly asks Jonathan what he thinks of the current Mayoral race in New York City. Jae tells a funny story of what floridians think of the race. And Jonathan recounts how he thinks that the events of his book have a direct effect on this current political climate. Jonathan talks about his research process for the book, what archival he used, and the people he was able to interview. Jae and Kelly talk about how much they love the writing of the book: How personable it is, how funny it is, and how the passion for New York City is dripping off every page. Kelly asks Jonathan to tell us about the title of the book: "The Gods of New York". Jonathan talks about where the title came from, how much he loves the title, but also why he was apprehensive to call it that. Finally, Kelly asks Jonathan some questions about his writing process, as well as some fun quick New York City questions that every New Yorker has an answer for. But above all else; Jonathan Mahler is a New Yorker!

Here in New York we're not due to select our next mayor till November but somehow it feels like we're already embroiled in pre-election chaos. Eric Adams is now running as an independent, and to do so he was required to present the signatures of 7,500 New Yorkers who support him. He actually handed in around 50,000 signatures so he more than made the cut off. But when our colleagues in the WNYC newsroom (and for the podcast NYC Now) began to look into those signatures, they stumbled onto a scandal. On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (08/05/2025): 3:05pm- At least fifty-one Texas House Democrats fled the state as part of an effort to deny the Texas House a quorum—effectively preventing a vote on redistricting while also prolonging a vote on providing financial relief for families impacted by last month's devastating floods that killed more than 120 people. In response, Governor Greg Abbott has argued that fleeing the state to prevent the legislative process simply because you don't like the expected outcome of an upcoming vote amounts to an “abandonment or forfeiture of an elected state office.” 3:15pm- Fun Fact: Did you know that the total number of House members briefly expanded from 435 to 437 in 1959 when both Hawaii and Alaska became states. Congress temporarily approved of the expansion to prevent any existing state from losing a seat immediately upon the Hawaii/Alaska admission. 3:40pm- While appearing on CNBC, President Donald Trump said of Texas redistricting efforts: “We are entitled to five more seats.” 3:45pm- In response to Texas's redistricting attempt, Governor Gavin Newsom has pledged to redistrict California—presumably removing several Republican congressional seats. Interestingly, Republicans currently hold just 17% of the congressional seats in CA—despite nearly 40% of the state voting for Donald Trump in 2024. Doesn't that suggest the state is already heavily gerrymandered? Comparatively, Democrats currently hold 32% of the House seats in Texas (with one vacant seat in a district that is reliably blue—so, the real number is closer to 34%). Kamala Harris won 42% of the Texas statewide vote in 2024. 4:05pm- Hans von Spakovsky—Senior Legal Fellow at the Edwin Meese III Center for Legal and Judicial Studies at the Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Department of Justice launching a grand jury investigation into the “Russiagate” hoax. 4:20pm- Rich saw the new Naked Gun movie with Liam Neeson—and it was surprisingly good! 4:35pm- Patricia Posner—Journalist & Author of the book, “The Pharmacist of Auschwitz”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss her latest piece for The New York Post, “Zohran Mamdani's NYC could look like Sadiq Khan's far-left London and New Yorkers should be terrified.” You can read the full article here: https://nypost.com/2025/08/02/opinion/zohran-mamdanis-nyc-could-look-like-sadiq-khans-far-left-london/. 4:50pm- From the White House, President Donald Trump signed an executive order creating a task force for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, California. 5:05pm- From the White House, President Donald Trump signed an executive order creating a task force for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, California. Following the EO signing, Trump took questions from the press—including on the war between Russia and Ukraine, supplying food to the people of Gaza, transgender athletes competing in the Olympics, halting illegal border crossings, redistricting efforts in Texas, and the possibility of the Trump Administration paying Americans a “dividend” using some of the money saved via DOGE's government waste cuts. Plus, who does he think will be the Republican presidential nominee in 2028? He hinted at a potential JD Vance-Marco Rubio ticket! 5:40pm- Earlier today, President Donald Trump toured construction projects he's funding at the White House—including a quick stroll on the roof! 5:45pm- At least fifty-one Texas House Democrats fled the state as part of an effort to deny the Texas House a quorum—effectively preventing a vote on redistricting while also prolonging a vote on providing financial relief for families impacted by last month's devastating floods that killed more than 120 people. In response, Governor Greg Abbott has argued that fleeing the state to prevent the legislative process simply because you don't like the expected outcome of an upcoming vote amounts to an “abandonment or forfeiture of an elected state office.” 5:50pm- Sen.

Megyn Kelly breaks down the horrifying NYC mass shooting that left one NYPD officer dead, the shooter's reported mental health issues, whether the NFL was the intended target given the note that was found with him, and more. Then Buck Sexton, co-host of "The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show," joins to discuss the NYC shooter's claim of possible football-related CTE, how he kept his firearms despite red flags, why the left wants to focus on gun violence now that the shooter isn't a white man, whether the tragic shooting in NYC will wake New Yorkers up to a potential Zohran Mamdani win, Mamdani's past outrageous comments about the police, and more.
