The Dominic Carter Show, entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.

And of course, we are leading with the Tel Aviv flight diverted to Saudi Arabia after a pilot stabbed the other and tried to crash the plane before being subdued when other passengers broke into the cockpit. Luckily, there was another crew on board to land the plane. Dominic Carter here with you. We'll be taking your phone calls this hour, 800-848-9222. But first, we're going to start with the guests. And I want you to imagine this. I want you to imagine this. So the plane carrying roughly 150 people. plunging, plunging, dropping from 34,000 feet all the way down to 14,000 feet in a matter of 30 seconds. Here's what it sounded like to some of the passengers.

What happened? Can you tell me what happened? That's it, that's it, that's it. Check it, check it.

Well, thank you. That's very nice of you to say. So you fight the good fights. That's what I like about you. That's number one. That's number one. So I'm going to be all over the place for a few minutes here. So one, you are behind an effort to formally commemorate October 7th. the terror attack in Israel, uh, as something that, that should be done, uh, every year, uh, in, in, in, in the state of New York in America, but in particular, the state of New York, correct. And why are you behind this?

That's correct. Because there's something in my heart that we should, uh, memorize that not celebrate, but memorize that so many people were killed as, as I look upon as nine 11, so many people were killed during that, uh, tragic World Trade Center, and happened to be right now in
