Summary

On this Friday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid explains why, after being a lifelong New York Mets fan, he'll be switching his allegiance to the Yankees when it comes to his New York City baseball fandom. In other news of the day, Sid calls for NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch to step down from her position after its made clear by Mayor Zohran Mamdani that the buck stops with him when it comes to NYC's cops; former NYPD sergeant Erik Duran was slapped with at least three years behind bars yesterday for killing a fleeing drug suspect by chucking a cooler at him — as police advocates ripped the Bronx judge’s sentencing decision as “one of the darkest days in the history of our profession”; First Lady Melania Trump reignited interest in the Jeffrey Epstein case yesterday by shockingly declaring she wasn’t the dead sex trafficker’s victim or accomplice — and then urging Congress to hold public hearings with victims to expose his associates; and Artemis II’s long journey to the moon and back is expected to end with a glorious splashdown in the Pacific Ocean around 8:07 p.m. ET tonight. Brian Kilmeade, David Samadi, Joe Tacopina, John Solomon, K.T. McFarland & Ray Tierney join Sid on this Friday installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning. Learn more about your ad choices.
