I'm squatting and now your host Eric Muttaxon.

I don't know what he's talking about folks.

Let me be clear if that's my announcer.

I didn't sign off on that.

This is Eric Muttaxon.

This is the Eric Muttaxon show.

As you know, I'm a lifelong New Yorker.

I was born in New York.

I live in New York, raised my daughter in New York.

And I was here when the Twin Towers fell.

And so it's moving to me that I get for this hour to talk with the man who was at that

time, the commissioner of the New York City Police Department.

His name is Bernard Carrick.

People call him Bernie, but I call him Commissioner.

Commissioner, welcome to the program.

Thank you.

There's so much to talk about.

You have yourself an amazing story.

And I want to hear about your story because most of my listeners would not be familiar

with it.

So the new book, which is, would you call it a thriller?

It's a thriller.
