Phil Almquist closes with September 22 music history and hands the show to Dawn’s Big Three. Dawn’s Big Three opens at the United Nations with President Trump and Melania Trump arriving in New York and the possibility of U.S.-Iran talks hanging over the day. We hear Secretary of State Marco Rubio say the administration is open to discussions, then work through oil flows in the Strait of Hormuz, Houthi attacks on Saudi supply and the continuing argument over CNN’s White House credentials.
The second Big Three item returns to the PHL communications failure and the two ground stops that hit Northeast travel, followed by Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy explaining the use of predictive tools while keeping humans in control of airspace decisions. The third item is Pennsylvania’s measles outbreak, with 792 confirmed cases reported statewide as of September 21, alongside the public-comment fight over Pennsylvania’s proposed disease rules and the crew’s debate over vaccination, herd immunity and state authority. Dawn closes the segment with video of a car crashing into the pro shop at Brae Burn Country Club.
After the break, we return directly to President Trump speaking live at the United Nations. The portion carried on the show has him discussing a possible deal with Iran, insisting Iran must not obtain a nuclear weapon, describing expanded U.S. munitions production and calling for economic pressure on Tehran before shifting to Gaza, hostages and the Board of Peace.
