J.P. FlaimHOST
The start is at Staten Island.
J.P. FlaimHOST
So I drove Kelsey to Staten Island in the morning, dropped her off, came back to my brother's place in Summit, New Jersey, had breakfast, and then we drove into the city, parked our car, and then I took the most packed subway to get up to where our boy Frazier lives, which is on 86th Street and 1st Avenue.
J.P. FlaimHOST
And I mean...
J.P. FlaimHOST
When I tell you it's the most packed subway I've ever been, there wasn't a part of my body that wasn't touching somebody else.

Sid RosenbergHOST
And I took the train, the express train, from Bowling Green to 86th Street and 2nd Avenue.
Sid RosenbergHOST
Because part of that run, they run right down First Avenue in New York City.
Sid RosenbergHOST
And Paige was keeping track.
Sid RosenbergHOST
She had Danielle's bib number of where she was.
Sid RosenbergHOST
About high noon? Yeah.
Sid RosenbergHOST
That's about the time when I made my way to 86th Street and 1st Avenue.
Sid RosenbergHOST
I was
John CatsimatidisGUEST
not too far away.
Rob SimmelkjaerGUEST
The start, first and foremost, which is just iconic, going across the Verrazano Narrows Bridge and playing Frank Sinatra and seeing the water boats in there, you know, spouting all the water.
Rob SimmelkjaerGUEST
And then my second favorite part is just after you come off the 59th Street Bridge, the Queensborough, as real New Yorkers of a certain age call it, and you come around and you hit First Avenue.
Rob SimmelkjaerGUEST
And you see the crowds there, which are just massive, five deep on First Avenue.
Rob SimmelkjaerGUEST
It's so exciting there.
Rob SimmelkjaerGUEST
It's hard not to get carried away with yourself and go too fast.
ScottAUDIENCE
Thank you so much for allowing me to speak.
ScottAUDIENCE
Rob covered the areas that I think are terrific, starting on the bridge, being able to see what's going on at Fort Wadsworth is crazy.
ScottAUDIENCE
And then coming off of the Queensborough is just insane because you can hear the crowd on First Avenue.

Jacob PraschHOST
Some time ago, in my youth, I lived directly across the street, First Avenue, in Manhattan from the United Nations.
Jacob PraschHOST
I lived there.
Jacob PraschHOST
It was during the Cold War era.
Jacob PraschHOST
And I made fun of the U.N. I'd see people getting off buses with cameras, Japanese people, European people coming, taking photographs from the U.N., something I could see out my window.
Jacob PraschHOST
What are those people looking at? I remember once the police were all over the place because Carter came, the president came.
Jacob PraschHOST
There were thousands and thousands of policemen on First Avenue.
Jacob PraschHOST
And they wouldn't let me get to my house.
Stacy FritzHOST
But I was nearby and I...
Stacy FritzHOST
There's this place, Salon Nouvelle, on First Avenue in the 60s.
Stacy FritzHOST
If you want to get a walk-in blowout for like $60, they give a great blowout.
Stacy FritzHOST
And since I haven't been able to blow my own hair because of my little rib injury...
