Live radio, ladies and gentlemen.

Last month, New York saw a spate of "loss of control" crashes -- like when a driver has a medical episode. I talked to @s_nessen @WNYC about two novel ways to protect people from these less predictable crashes: fast and free buses and bollards bollards everywhere.

Hey @prospect_park @FDNY there’s a spraying hydrant in the park by parkside and parade.

@katie_honan I'm so sorry, Katie. Keeping you and your family in my thoughts.

[Alec Hamilton @alecchamilton]

@HaanRolo I think credit goes to npr for that one, though I might steal that one for us, too.

We have a winner! We asked you to choose NYC's most iconic bagel, via a ranked choice ballot. Thousands of votes later, @NYCVotes came on @WNYC today to tabulate the winner with @MichaelHillNJ. https://t.co/iAHxiXjglE

What is NYC’s most iconic bagel? Help us elect the city’s top bagel using rank choice voting ahead of the democratic primary for NYC mayor. Remember, you’re not picking your favorite bagel, but the one you think best represents the city. https://t.co/y5jUQ3gRiy

@J__Velasquez They’re lucky to get you!

@JamesPedersenNY @WNYC It's posted in the slide show linked here! I liked it a lot. It's one of the last slides.

@kitson @MichaelHillNJ Honestly pretty much any mistake you ever hear Michael make is usually my fault.

[Alec Hamilton @alecchamilton]

@kitson @MichaelHillNJ It was my fault, Josh, at 6 am I typed something for Michael to read and wrote “Iceland” when I meant “Greenland.”

Good stuff here. I love the NPR book - great fundamentals in this excerpt of the new edition: https://t.co/SFOyutMNx7

“Ian Bassin, a democracy expert, calls these moves ‘anticipatory obedience’: fear by owners that if Trump wins he could take vengeance on companies that cross him.”

WNYC is digging deep into the world of a natural quirk called recursive islands — and one can be found right in Central Park. But it doesn't have a name. What would you call it? Email @WNYC a voice memo with your idea to [email protected]

[Alec Hamilton @alecchamilton]

@jersiegel @GBH @TheWorld @GBHNews That's exciting! Congratulations! Enjoy all the sleeping past 4am.

[Alec Hamilton @alecchamilton]

@kitson @WNYC @MorningEdition Thank you! I literally ran into the studio and read it cold when Michael's internet suddenly dropped. 😬

[Alec Hamilton @alecchamilton]

Thanks to @Amanda_Rozon, Jazmyn Blackburn and Oyster for walking us through it on @wnyc this morning!

There have been 2 NYPD shootings within 48 hours where police tried to use a Taser first and it "didn't work."

It turns out, NYPD Tasers fail 40% of the time https://t.co/lDU7n9lZ4Z

Sunday’s subway shooting touched several noteworthy trends in NYC. First, facts have changed multiple times since police first shot 2 bystanders and an alleged fare evader. The knife “recovered” was NOT the knife that sparked the shooting.
