Bernie And Sid

WABC Host Brian Kilmeade calls in to discuss his and Sid's shared paths from sports broadcasting into news talk, noting the similarities between covering sports and politics—strategy, competition, and relentless pace. Kilmeade recalls how 9/11 pushed him toward more meaningful reporting, contrasting sports scores with global stakes like confronting Maduro. They discuss Trump’s upcoming Yankee Stadium first pitch, media obsession with his health, and the 2025 NYC mayoral race—where Cuomo remains in, Curtis Sliwa has strong GOP backing, and Zohran Mamdani poses major risks for Democrats. Kilmeade criticizes Democratic leaders like Pritzker and Johnson for failing on crime, arguing federal intervention helps struggling communities. Learn more about your ad choices.
