My gosh, This is this is terrible. And I, as we heard earlier from Mara Ruben and I certainly hope she's alright. Oh, wow. Mm yeah. I mean, I was I was getting closer and closer to the building and then all of a sudden The South tower collapses and I was under it. I mean, it literally vaporized. And you see this huge cloud and everyone is now running away from the building. So I'm quite in that running. And then police are on the street there screaming, You know, Go inside, get inside a building. Get off the street, So I woke up to a cop of like, what's going on? You know, why do we have, you know? And he's like there's another another plane in the air. So at that time there was one missing plane That was Shanksville. We didn't know where they didn't know where it was going. We still don't know where I think it was headed. So there was just telling people to run and get inside the building. And that's when I lost contact with you guys because I got ushered into a building and I'm I'm standing in the lobby, which is dark in which I'm with a lot of people. I don't know. Um, because we're all huddled in there. We're all scared. And I think, Natalie, I think at that point after Joe said that on the air, um you talked to my mom. I did. I did. Your mom called the studio and that was about one of the worst phone calls I ever had with someone because she kept saying to me. Is she Okay? Do you know where she is? And I didn't have any good answers for her. I didn't have the answer She wanted at that time, and I just kept saying as soon as I hear from her, I will call you as soon as I hear from her.

I'm not staying in here because I don't know any of you and I don't want to die in this building. I don't I want to get out. So I literally it was like the luckiest moment I walked out and I walked right into The mayor, the police commissioner and the fire commissioner, and I'm thinking if anyone knows where to go and how to be safe, it's these three and I'm staying with them. So that's what I did. And But the thing is, they didn't know where to go. What was safe, So they were walking in circles for a while, and I was just walking in circles with them until they landed.

"The wire was Obama thought the wire was the greatest show ever to be on television. Michael K. Williams later said he was so high on drugs that day. He had no clue what Obama was saying to him. It was just completely whacked out of his mind, so struggled with drug addiction. All these years had to say so. Michael K. Williams is dead. Star of the wire and just 54 years old. That is a tragic story now. Also somebody who died but in less tragic circumstances. Willard Scott, the weatherman from the Today Show will. It's got what was the 84 I think or something like 87 87? Yeah. Willard Scott. Now I grew up with Willard Scott. You must have granted Willard Scott course. Yeah. Member. He would wish every old lady 100 if she turned 100 and wish her 100 birthday 100th birthday party. The Smucker's jam, right? Wasn't it like Smucker's jam that sponsored it, And they would show all the old ladies and old guys that turned 100. Now they could, You know, so many people are living to 100 that that segment could go on forever. But when he was doing it, not as many people are living that all interesting. You said that because I saw that segment over the weekend. And they were celebrating the birth of one year olds. What, and I said, I mean, there's nothing cuter than a one year old. But they don't have a lot in their life to talk about at this point. I always liked the stories like, uh, you know, Ida 100 from Boise. She lived on whiskey. You know, they tell you these great little like 10 bits of their life. She got to Iowa to covered wagon when she was a young girl. I think they were telling this little ticket that was so fascinating of 100, Your old life. You know the one year old pictures cute on this market, which are but not the same. Trying to lower the demos. I guess so by a lot. So, yes, speed of the demos deadly and I was saying now who's the bigger name for our listeners? Michael K. Williams or Willard Scott. I have a feeling it's Willard Scott Manley. I don't think it's Michael K. Williams. Potentially Napoli disagrees with me. Michael K. Williams on Boardwalk Empire. His character was so good, so good. Oh, man, that he was a powerful guys is chalky white. Um And I mean, it just I mean, he really was a star of that show. I don't really watch the wire, but I'll tell you, Omar on the wire was a character. You won't forget. He had a great actor. Absolutely incredible. Now I have not watched the wire, but I have some friends who say the wire is really one of the great TV shows of all time and I have you need to put it on the list. Friend of mine gave me the entire run on DVDs have to watch it. Really? Isn't that good? You? You watched her, right? It wasn't wasn't your husband addicted to it? Oh, yeah, he would. I mean, it was. It is probably on the top of his list of the best shows he's ever seen. And of course, I would sit there and watch it. I was like, it's not my kind of thing, and there was just It was so incredible. It was unbelievably written me. Not your kind of thing that Oh, you know what came from a drug a drug neighborhood when you were a kid, right? Nationalist didn't Staten Island you know? Now you can find if you don't find me watching a new show, I'll be watching some trashy reality show. I mean, that's basic. I go from one extreme to the other. And then, um, you know, I have to watch sports all day long. Why? Because my husband has it on. That's why I know so much about what's going on in sports because I'm Trapped. I don't watch anything. Actually, even the news. That's why I have no clue what's going on. It could be readily apparent from anyone listening to this show. By the way, What t V shows do you guys watch these days? Is there a good one out there? Oh, I'm addicted to my £600 life. I can't stop watching the show. It's a reality show of people who weigh over £600 and they're trying to, you know, not die and lose weight. It's a major investment each episode like a couple hours long, but I can't stop watching the family thinks I'm crazy. They all come home and they see me in front of the TV watching this thing, but I can't stop watching it. I admitted that I had I was addicted that about two years ago, I couldn't stop watching it. And finally I said, I got to give this up. What's the What's the joy in watching Because you root for these people? You just want them to. You know, get their life. Back together. They have so many struggles, and you want them to lose the weight. It's something I started. How do they move around? Well, that's that's part of the interesting part of watching this thing is they can't get out of bed can walk around, and it's first person narration, so that's kind of interesting. So Have to take the freight elevator and they stay in the hotel. They do, actually, sometimes. Yeah, Michael, don't laugh. It's not a joke. That's weird, Joe. I don't know.

"To be ironed out, Joe, But you know something? Certainly we could look at for maybe Tuesday of next week, maybe a little accumulating so far. Very, very good, right? Have the weekend. 5 33 star time President Biden's has helped us on the way, says the vaccine rollout Up to this point has been a failure, but he's implementing a plan to turn things around. Get into this mess overnight. It's gonna take months for us to turn things around. But let me be equally clear. We will get through this way We will defeat this pandemic. Biden is set a goal of administering 100 million vaccines in his 1st 100 days in office also outlined a plan to safely reopen schools. Any return Dr Anthony Fauci to the White House poetry coming in with fresh ideas, but also some ideas that were not bad ideas. With with with the previous administration. You can't say it was absolutely not usable it all. So we are continuing, but you're going to see a real ramping up of it. And in a mission admission from Fauci, he admitted that working under President Trump was difficult. Right now. The big problem is a nationwide shortage of vaccine. It's forced Mayor de Blasio to cancel all first dose appointments in the city through Sunday. Well, there are 300002nd Dose is arriving in New York City now and with the first dose supply running out, the mayor continues asking the feds and state for authority to use those second doses. Prevent more appointments from being canceled. So for everyone who saw an appointment rescheduled. I feel for you because it's not fair to you. It shouldn't happen. But I also believe help is coming soon. The help he is referring to is the Biden administration who the mayor has been on the phone with the Bellagio says 15 vaccination sites remain closed until the supply of first doses picks up. I'm Scott Pringle, double the O R news. State vaccine sites are still open for now. But Governor Cuomo says the state is going to run out of doses today, and he says he can't buy it directly from vice not licensed to sell. It's a very limited federal approval. So states can't buy. Private individuals can't buy. All right back to Washington. President Trump's Senate impeachment trial continues to hang over that city when it will happen. We're not sure could be pushed back next month, they could start right away. Let's get the latest on that debate. Joining us live now NBC radio national correspondent builds them for Good Morning Bill. Hey, Good morning, Joe. Yeah, This is something to keep an eye on because it could make this impeachment trial linger on a little bit, And what they're talking about now is perhaps a two week delay in the start of the trial. This would give Congress and the Senate in particular more time to get the cabinet positions in place to get more people confirmed and the Biden cabinet. And go about that business. Also, maybe get some work done on the pandemic relief and recovery plan that Joe Biden has put forth so they want to give the new Senate and the House of Representatives a chance to get some work done before. Yeah, we got we got an impeachment trial coming up for President Trump. But Joe that could be the least of his worries. Believe it or not, because all during the Trump presidency, Of course, we had heard the legal opinion that a sitting president could not be indicted. But not so for a former president. So, as you well know, there in New York is where it's centered. We've got the Manhattan D a working on that case. We have the New York attorney general working on that case, the Southern District of New York. We have defamation lawsuits by two women against press. And then Trump lawsuit by Mary Trump accusing Trump family members of cheating her out of some of her inheritance and a possible tax evasion charge that could come from the federal government and the New Biden administration. And how about the possibility the U. S Attorney's office in D C could come up with charges related to the January 6 riots at the capital. So I would suggest that President Trump work in a little time around his golf rounds to have some legal consultations. He's going to need it. All right. Thank you. Bill.

S Capitol after they were kicked out and forced Going to a parking garage, and soldiers were told they were no longer allowed to use congressional grounds. During the rest breaks.

"That more walk, walk past that big bakery and just smell it. Wait. You don't get the bread. You just go for the sniffs My what is wrong with you? Have you been to space Are you Inspector? How do you do? I couldn't do that. I mean, we have some distilleries. If you drive up part of 75. I find myself getting thirsty. Driving by is it's fermenting in those big tanks. Probably says more bad about me than you, actually, now that I think about it. I'm sorry. We are going to change me. But like usually, I mean, if I'm hungry, I'll probably go like a little Chinese food selling. Get get some dumplings just like that. It's in the same neighborhood. As that? Yes, the big bakery. And so if I'm hungry, I usually like, go that route. I mean, that wouldn't say never go for the power just be just be who should be beaten like that one Gene Adela Chocolate, whatever the hell's there along the warf, which is aware of the tourist go and I'd be eating the bread and then I'd be attacked by seagulls and sea lions, And then I just disappear. And then they wonder what happened in the apartment. That's how that would play is we look into 2021 with all the shaking of the tree and all those. It's spacedotcom, Mikey Wall. What do you see in the future in 2021? That could be good. I'm looking for positivity in the midst of what has been ah, dark, annoying and just a poor 2020. Yeah, There's a lot going on that that should happen. But next year on go, that's going to happen pretty soon. Actually, they're they're three Mars missions that air in route to the Red planet right now, and they're all supposed to get there. This February there. Like one of them is like a big NASA rover. You know curiosities. But I kind of like the next generation from curiosity, even though the curiosity Rover is still just don't go in strong. It Z like cousin, which is like the size of an SUV and weighs like a ton. It's gonna land on on the 18th of February and it Z like it's the life hunting mission, So it's going to search for signs of ancient life on Mars, and it's going to collect a bunch of samples for a future mission to pick up and bring back to Earth. Scientists can study them. That's way off in the future. That's not gonna happen next year. The whole returner thing that could happen as early as 2031. But so there's there's like that NASA mission and then It's definitely China's 1st 1st. Mars Rover mission is supposed to arrive at Mars in February as well it Zvecan Orbiter and the rover and so Like it'll arrive in February, but then technical months toe kind of orbit the planet and find a good landing spot minutes for us to land and then actually, April And then there's another Mars mission by like the U. A. E, um that zah pretty big deal that Alec, United Arab Emirates. They launched They launched a Mars mission, and it's supposed to get there in February. It's going to be an orbiter, so it's not gonna land, but it's going to study Mars from from orbit. So all all three of those will be arriving within like 10 10 days of each other in February or something. So it's a lot now, Mikey Wall. I have a question. Things don't get better. 2021. Do you know who I can talk to? To try to get the hell out of this place and get to space to avoid whatever madness and mayhem If this starts terms into more of a dumpster fire, I'm hoping it doesn't. I've been raised to be a new eternal optimist, but this is weighing heavily on me. Well, yeah, that's that's got to the line must right. He's the one with the Rockets that can take people into space on bond. That's another thing that's going to be exciting. And in the coming year 2021. Actually, we've actually talked about starship before you may have on the show. That's that's the big spaceship that they're developing, to take people to Mars and the moon. And there is a big milestone just a few weeks ago with the starship prototypes that sort of about eight miles high in Texas, and then came back down and blew up but it but it almost landed. So it was a success. I almost made it home. All right, you say you're more of an optimist in me was like it almost before blew up. It was it was great. It was fine. And so the ups That's like the 2% kill, baby. My mom and dad. They were like, you know the pills 98% effective. Hi, Sterling. How are you? That's a whole nother thing quickly. In short order. Do you have a resolution or do you even dude resolutions? Um, my my resolution, I guess would be and yet to kind of look at the positive. I mean, there. This has been a really tough year. Obviously, people don't need me to tell him that there's a lot of cool stuff happening this coming year and it should be. There should be a lot of excitement. So Can you find plenty of excitement here on Earth to there's lots of there's lots of things to be happy that excited about, you know, first and foremost, we're we have vaccines now for this thing, and so we might be able to get get life back to normal student off in months or something like that. There's a lot quick for it, too, in space, too. You know, there's three miles missions like that talked about starship. They're going to ramp up the prototype testing of that. That could actually start flying real real missions to space like in the coming months, not not launching people to Mars this year, anything but get taking big steps toward that, so There a lot of there a lot of exciting things happening here. Actually, that, like I'm only scratches, but for the surface, That's all we needed was just a little bit of a scratch. That's perfect. I'll get a little Weightman clean that up. Maybe a sad I always like using the word staff. I don't know why A Q tips are good, too.
