Summary

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is considering whether to retain current NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch when he takes office. If Tisch does not stay on, former Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison is said to be a top contender for the role, according to sources close to Mamdani’s transition team. Mark interviews WOR midday Host Clay Travis from Clay and Buck. Clay has a new book out called "Balls." Did the Democrats try to use sports to highlight and promote the LGBTQ community? Governor Kathy Hochul is most likely to encounter significant challenges in the upcoming gubernatorial race, as U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik has announced her candidacy for governor in New York City. This development sets the stage for a highly competitive contest between the two prominent political figures. Former CIA Director John Brennan is reportedly under investigation by the Department of Justice. Sources indicate that the inquiry may lead to an indictment. Mark interviews Roger Friedman from Showbiz 411. Roger and Mark talk about the 2026 Grammy nominations. A Michael Jackson biopic is coming out that is attracting many people.
