New York City can be very hot, humid, and sticky during the summer months. Additionally, June is one of the wettest months in New York City. This makes for an interesting and unique experience when traveling to New York in the summer.In this article, we're going to help you prepare for NYC's summer heat with tips on:Understanding the challenge of the subwaysPacking for the heatThings to doThe best food and drink options for hot summer days in New York CityA common travel challenge in the summerThe NYC Heat & Subway ExperienceWhile you may think you're used to hot weather, there is a big difference between dry heat and wet heat. New York City often has humidity at 80% or higher, and when coupled with 90+° temperatures, it makes for a very sticky situation.Being in New York City in the summer is like being in a wet hair dryer. The second you step outside, you will feel slightly damp and be a little bit sweaty. That's just the way it goes.Subway TempsOne of the stranger experiences is the intense heat inside subway stations. There is no AC in New York City subway stations, and while you think it would be cooler underground, the energy from the subways makes it extremely hot.Subway stations are frequently 10-15° hotter than the outside temperature. An analysis conducted in July of 2015 found that the Brooklyn Bridge City Hall 456 platform hit 106.6°F, despite the outdoor temperature hovering around 90°F.NYC Packing List for SummerWhile we have a general NYC packing list, we'll cover some essentials for the hot summer months.Here are items you should bring to NYC during the summer:Travel sunscreenSunglassesPortable fanHatLightweight, breathable clothingElectrolytesReusable water bottleCompact umbrellaActivities & Things to DoNYC has no shortage of fun activities, and that's true even in the summer.

While New York City is very hot, it often gets many lightning strikes and thunderstorms in the summer months. Those storms often lead to ground stops, delays, and travel issues when flying in and out of New York City.If you are able to, base your travel plans on baking in a little bit of extra time just in case you hit delays; it's worth trying to do that.You'll Have to Check It Out - Pier i CafePier i Cafe is both a phenomenal spot to eat on the Upper West Side AND something fun to do!It's open from May to mid-October.

Lance - Monologue about the Toure/Bryant exchange
In today's edition of The Update Journal… McDonald's has officially decided that burgers were just the opening act, and now they're coming for your entire beverage identity. Cold foam, refreshers, mystery fruit combinations… at this point, they're one oat milk away from opening inside a yoga studio.Meanwhile, the ice cream truck economy is booming again, which means Mr. Softee is back on the streets like a seasonal superhero—serving joy, playing that one song on loop, and charging prices that suggest inflation hit soft serve personally.And then there's Brandon's Take, where we ask the important question: why is EVERYTHING exclusive now? Want to watch a game? Exclusive. Want a deal? App only. Want basic access to anything without downloading, subscribing, or sacrificing your firstborn? Yeah… good luck with that.It's a world of cold drinks, cold cash, and even colder access—and somehow, we're all just expected to tap the app and smile.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Wednesday, the goon accused of gunning down a beloved East Village deli worker was rounded up in a massive federal gang takedown a decade ago — and came back to allegedly terrorize the neighborhood.The woman at the center of Harvey Weinstein ‘s repeatedly retried rape case testified — for the third time — Tuesday that the former Hollywood honcho trapped her in a New York hotel room and assaulted her, ignoring her pleas not to do anything sexual.And in Washington, King Charles III marked the 250th anniversary of American independence from Britain with gratitude that the two countries united to build “one of the most consequential alliances in human history” while urging “that we ignore the clarion calls to become ever more inward-looking.”
Evan shares one of the strangest encounters he has ever had at Mets spring training.

Evan and Tiki break down the awkward moment, debate whether Wilpon actually knew who Evan was, and try to figure out if the whole thing was a joke, a prank, or just an old-school rich guy sense of humor. Plus, more Mets spring training observations, the return of ballpark staples like Mr. Softee, and why nothing beats the first ice cream of the baseball season at Citi Field.

Ron remembers his childhood with the Good Humor man and the Mr. Softee truck.... Guest: Expert Courtney Alev about summer spending
Welcome to a vintage episode of the Brand X Podcast! Originally broadcast on May 18, 2016, this episode is packed with classic storytelling, candid conversations, and a dose of nostalgia. Hosts John Jamingo and Deuce kick things off with a look back at their week – including John's fun guest stint on another comedy podcast.This week, the guys get real about quitting jobs, tough boss decisions, and the complicated etiquette around giving notice – complete with personal tales from both sides of the employer-employee divide. They reminisce about the childhood thrill of chasing down the Mr. Softee ice cream truck, funny mailbox mishaps, and how those carefree days compare to raising children today.The conversation then takes a thought-provoking turn into the world of bullying—then versus now—as John and Deuce discuss old-school playground justice, the changing definition of bullying, and a new approach in Wisconsin that aims to hold parents accountable for their kids' bad behavior.Rounding out the episode is a lively discussion on the quirks of American politics, with theories about the Clintons, presidential primaries, and a few wild news stories—including Yoko Ono's surprising claim about Hillary Clinton. Along the way, they keep things light with sidebar stories, plenty of laughs, and genuine rapport that shows why Brand X is a listener favorite.Settle in for a trip down memory lane, some serious talk, and plenty of laughs as the Brand X crew brings you their unfiltered take on everything from quitting jobs to ice cream memories, bullying, and beyond.- [00:00:05] Introduction and vintage episode setup - [00:00:32] Banter about Seattle weather and Three is Comedy Podcast - [00:01:43] News of the week and podcast recording stories - [00:02:08] Nephew's dilemma about quitting a job without notice - [00:03:40] Employer/employee relationships and quitting etiquette - [00:05:10] Younger employees' attitudes toward work and references - [00:09:33] Managing employees and firing experiences - [00:09:58] Mr. Softee topic: Jingle composer's passing and ice cream truck memories - [00:13:13] Childhood ice cream stories and mailbox prank - [00:16:24] Mailman's reaction to melted banana split prank - [00:18:26] Discussion: Wisconsin fining parents for kids' bullying - [00:20:33] Bullying definitions and changes over time - [00:21:50] Is there an upside to bullying?

Back at it with another fun episode and i start the show off with some 80s classics, its only a matter of time till stranger things add them to a sound track RIDE LIKE THE WIND - CHRISTOPHER CROSS I THINK WE'RE ALONE NOW - TIFFANY SMALL TOWN BOY BRONSKI (00:00-07:07) On today's episode i speak on the new board i just got for our audio adventures, this is basically a trial run for it and after this i shall be able to make some tweaks and adjustments to make the experience better for all of us. I also speak on my city adventures from last weekend from the jumping of turnstyles to interrupting researchers to having fisticuffs on the subway all of this while trying to see the time square glitzy. I also take time out to address a viewer who felt the show is not where it should be due to the content that i have put out into the world. All of this fun stuff is being said while Mr Softee is parked out of my house serenading the diabetics. (07:08-33:52) I then jump into The Cool Report we start off with the apology that was not an apology, Diddy is back in the headlines again and i think there's no way out of this like his 1999 album. i discuss Harvard trying to step on their students liberties for expressing freedom of speech. Also another group of individuals find themselves in the same predicament when it comes to sports. What a web we have weaved. (33:53-58:32) We then step into a new segment where the listeners ask me 3 questions about myself. Like did i double down on the bias on the last episode because it seemed like it was mad extra. Another sends me a link to an up and coming christian artist, and wanted me to check if the first ad lib on her song a shot at a certain community. While another keeps it biblical and ask if i believe in the firmament. (58:33-01:09:57) Then we have 2 fans ask us a questions for PTL where we get asked the tough questions where we place ourselves in their shoes. Like being a male bestie to a woman is an issue if there are anterior motives. This falls on both genders but it's up to both to know each others intentions. Another lover ask when did the talking stage become the together stage. Some feel there is not talking stage, just we go together now since we're already talking. (01:09:58-01:23:05) THE FIN On the way out i speak about the adjustments i will look for when editing this episode to make sure the new board specs are up to par.

Ron recalls the hot summer days when he was a kid, as he was masterly relieved by Mr. Softee (not what you think it was)....... Guest: Author Barbara Hannah Grufferman ""Love Your Age"
HOW CAN THEY DO THIS TO US?! Also, did you know the Mr Softee song has lyrics?!?! Mind blown.
"Dear summer, I love you. You have given me weeks at the Jersey shore as a kid , endless dinners on the grill, pool dates with friends, scattered flip flops everywhere, bonfires by the lake, Mr. Softee treat truck, and so much more. You have nursed my broken heart more than once through the years with gifts of sunshine and ice cream. Each year, you come back again to help me write another incredible story. Thank you." P.S. Dear summer, you're my absolute favorite, but don't tell the other seasons.. Host, Sue Duffield, makes a vow to once again spend another summer in gratitude and worship. This is a time to feel the heavenly warmth on our face and revel in the beauty that surrounds us. Relax, have fun, celebrate, and abide in gratitude for the blessings that surround. Matthew 24:32 says, "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near." Here are ways, mentioned in this episode, to make the most of your summer by consuming both refreshing fruits AND walking each day WITH the fruit of the Spirit. www.sueduffield.com
This week we tackle one of the most horrifying real-life supervillain duos of all-time: Richard Kuklinski and Robert Prongay AKA The Iceman and Mr. Softee! A real true-crime epic, this story is one of the most hotly debated mafia-adjacent tales that we have today. The premise is insane from the start: one of the most prolific mafia hitmen of all time teamed up with a former military demolitions expert-turned hitman/ice-cream truck driver. These men helped each other kill, and together learned new ways of murder and body disposal, all while somehow maintaining a low profile for years. There is also the theme that these men existed on the outskirts of the one the grisliest eras in New York mafia history, rubbing shoulders with people like Sammy "the Bull" Gravano, Roy Demeo of The Gemini Lounge, and other big name made-men. Kuklinski was said to have killed somewhere between 100 and 200 people, and it's said that cyanide was his favorite way to kill. He liked staying "creative", using weapons like guns, knives, road flares, ice picks, poisoned food, cyanide spray and injections, explosives, crossbows, and even a cave of wild man-eating rats in the forest. It's commonly known that Kuklinksi did all this while maintaining a life that one could outwardly consider as an achievement of the "American dream", with healthy children and a seemingly happy wife, in a nice suburban home. Robert Prongay appears to have done the same thing. The story of Mr. Softee is one that is much less documented, yet is certainly a matter of record. By taking what we've found on the public record and the stories that Kuklinksi has told, we can find the outline of this sinister ice-cream salesman. This entire story is an amalgamation of police investigation, court record, prison confession, media fascination, and true crime he-said-she-said. The details come from many different angles, and no one seems to be a completely reliable narrator, especially not Iceman himself. How true is the horrifying Legend of Iceman and Softee? Well, it's certainly not all made up, but we might find certain threads come loose the more we tug! Jump down the true crime rabbit hole with me this week as we investigate the career of The Iceman. Oh, and PS: for those of you that are keeping up with the life and times of The League of Extordniary Gentlement, you might want to tune into the commercial breaks as well! They will not be, shall we say, "traditional" ad breaks.

As progressive as some parts of the US purport to be, it can be insanely easy to not fit within the cog-work of traditional Western values. And without access to proper support, that absence of belonging can tragically lead some “outcasts” to take drastic measures – destruction towards themselves or others. It’s a human condition, […]

Comedian Turner Sparks has a new comedy album out on September 30th. It's called Double Happiness. And yes, it's no coincidence that it is literally the same title as Slow Gherkin's debut album. Turner was a huge ska fan growing up. And he wanted his record's title to give a wink to the ska scene. In fact, not only did he attend wild ska shows in Sacramento at Capitol Garage, BoJangles, El Dorado Saloon, and the Crest Theater, but he also had his own band: Fat Kids On Mopeds. Oh and one of the bands that he idolized was Link 80. He kind of thinks co-host Adam Davis is a big deal. And we go deep into Sacramento lore on this episode, with copious discussion of comedians Keith Lowell Jensen and Johnny Taylor Jr, some love for local group Lesdystics, and Turner points out just how much ska was in the Sacramento-based film Lady Bird. How did I miss that?We also discuss Turner's time running a Mr. Softee ice cream truck empire in China, his recent trip to El Salvador to find out if in fact the country really is run on bitcoin or not (For a potential "Lost In America" TV episode), how politically polarizing stand-up comedy has become, and his brief time running the Sacramento Anti-Racist Action chapter--at the age of 17! Oh, we also talk about how he became friends with SKAmedian Ian Fidance. It had something to do with the hardcore band H20. Support the show

I first met Turner Sparks 12 years ago in China where I was performing and he was just starting out as an open micer. Since then he went on to start his own comedy tour of China and bring the Mr. Softee ice cream truck franchise to China. Both of these endeavors were not without complications. He lives in Brooklyn now and he is one of the kindest people I have ever met in comedy. Rejoice in this glorious conversation that we recorded together in Reno. Joy be upon you!
