It's the Brian Larry Show on WNYC.

Good morning, everyone.

On today's show, we'll continue our WNYC Centennial series,

A Hundred Years of a Hundred Things.

For this Labor Day week, after 100 years of unionization

and deunionization on Monday, we'll do 100 years of employment and unemployment today with

economic historian Brad Long and your oral history calls. Also, Liz Kim is back from vacation,

so we'll resume her usual Wednesday visits

with excerpts from analysis of and to take your calls about Mayor Adams' Tuesday News Conference,

a number of interesting and important topics that the mayor addressed yesterday, including

a question that Liz asked about why some guards at Rikers Island are still on the job,

even as they're being investigated, actually charged in lawsuits with sexual assault and rape

in the Adult Survivors Act lookback period in New York State.

So we'll get into that and other things

with Liz Kim. And we'll take your calls at the end of the show on this year's record attendance

at the U.S. Open tennis tournament entering the home stretch now in Flushing. Have you become a tennis

fan recently if they're seeing record attendance now? If so, how come? And who are you into at this year's tournament?

I'd say if Taylor Swift was a draw in last year's football season,

it's rising American tennis star Taylor Fritz at this year's tennis open.

So we'll talk about that.

But we begin on the presidential race. Election season is here.

North Carolina sends out mail and ballots beginning this week. Early voting begins in Pennsylvania
