| 0:00.0 | It's the Brian Larry Show on WNYC. |
| 0:13.2 | Good morning, everyone. |
| 0:15.1 | It's a Supreme Court decision day. |
| 0:17.4 | It's Trump and Biden debate night. |
| 0:19.9 | Two program notes. |
| 0:20.8 | First, you can listen to the debate right here. |
| 0:23.8 | If you haven't heard that yet, this is new since yesterday's show. In the afternoon yesterday, |
| 0:28.7 | CNN agreed to let NPR stations air the debate on the radio. So if you're driving tonight or don't |
| 0:35.1 | have a video source or whatever, it's live debate coverage |
| 0:38.8 | on WNYC at 9 o'clock tonight. |
| 0:42.4 | The other program notes, same as yesterday at this time. |

| 1:23.6 | He also hosts their podcast called The Powers That Be. His experience puts him in a good position to preview tonight's debate because he worked for CNN for a long time and won Emmy's there for coverage of election nights in 2012 and 2006, plus a Peabody Award for CNN's Hurricane Katrina coverage and a Murrow Award for Innovation for creating the Snapchat |
| 1:46.2 | podcast, Good Luck America. And he lives on the West Coast. So Peter, thanks for getting up early |
| 1:52.1 | for us. Welcome to WNYC. To be here, Brian. I was there in New York last week and joining the heat |
