  • FULL SHOW: Ceasefire in jeopardy; Knicks parade recap.
    Jun 19 2026

    Ken Rosato fills in for Mark Simone. Ken kicks things off by reflecting on the history and meaning of Juneteenth, especially as we celebrate the 2026 holiday. Iran claims to have closed the Strait of Hormuz again, which is causing a stir since VP JD Vance’s trip to sign a ceasefire deal has now been called off. Ken explains how Zohran Mamdani’s accent seems to shift, sharing a bit about Mamdani’s background along the way. And what exactly is socialism? Ken breaks it down. Ken interviews John Boyd Jr. from The Boyd Company. John explains why business policies matter so much when companies decide where to set up shop. Samsung’s decision to move out of New Jersey comes up, with both Ken and John pointing to the financial challenges companies face in the state. They also talk about Governor Mikie Sherrill’s recent efforts to lower energy costs and how her strategies stack up to what Governor Josh Shapiro has done in Pennsylvania, which is shaping up to be a positive outcome. The big question: Should the U.S. have signed that peace deal with Iran? Ken also recaps the massive Knicks' ticker tape parade in Lower Manhattan, where two million people turned out, and things stayed mostly safe and celebratory. Zohran Mamdani’s speech at the parade made waves for its delivery and content, sparking plenty of debate. Ken tries to explain why capitalism can work and shares his thoughts on how to make the most of it. There’s also news from Massachusetts, where 11 people, allegedly illegal immigrants, were charged with fraudulently obtaining food stamps. Ken interviews Maria Intscher-Owrang, co-founder of Simplifyber. Maria’s company is shaking things up in the world of plant fiber manufacturing. She explains that they’re finding ways to cut down on waste before products are even made, which is a huge deal for sustainability. Instead of the usual spinning, weaving, cutting, and sewing, they use 3D technology to create fabric in completely new ways. It’s a fresh take that could really change how sustainable materials are made.
