FULL SHOW: Stay cool; Taylor Swift's big day!

Ken Rosato fills in for Mark Simone and kicks things off by talking about Zohran Mamdani’s tip to keep your AC at 78 degrees. Apparently, that’s the magic number during this wild tri-state heat wave. Ken also got into the idea of using AI-powered plants to help out the energy grid, breaking down the pros and cons in plain English. And with so many nuclear and energy plants shutting down, he pointed out it’s no surprise our energy bills keep climbing. Ken interviews Roger Friedman from Showbiz 411. The burning question: Did Taylor Swift already tie the knot, or is the wedding happening tonight? Either way, she and Travis are making headlines with their massive donations. Roger also gave us a fun update on Mel Brooks, how he’s doing, and what movies he’s been working on lately. Ken Rosato fills in for Mark Simone. The tri-state area faced scorching temps over 102 degrees. His advice? Find some great air conditioning, whether it’s a movie theater or the supermarket, and take it easy! Ken also took a closer look at New Jersey’s budget, compared it to NYC's, and even brought Florida into the conversation. Even though Florida has a much bigger population, their budget is managed very differently. Ken broke down how socialism factors into these financial decisions. Ken interviews David Bobb, President and CEO of the Bill of Rights Institute. They talked about why the Declaration of Independence was written, who made it happen, and how it sparked a bunch of new ideas for the United States after winning independence.
