In this episode, Governor Pataki discusses the challenges of rebuilding after 9-11, including the disagreements over what to do with the site and the need to balance the needs of different stakeholders. He also talks about the importance of the I Love New York campaign, which aimed to promote tourism and show the world that New York was still a vibrant and welcoming city. Additionally, he shares stories about the role of celebrities like Robert De Niro and the Tribeca Film Festival in helping to bring people back to Lower Manhattan.

As the 25th anniversary of the 9-11 attacks approaches, this episode of Radio Night Live Fun Friday! also takes a poignant look back at the role of baseball in bringing people together during one of the darkest moments in American history. The Yankees and the Mets are teaming up to host a special game on September 11th, honoring the victims and first responders of the tragedy. But it's not just about the game - it's about the way baseball helped heal a nation in its time of need.

This episode features a powerful conversation with Randy Levine, President of the New York Yankees, who shares his firsthand account of the team's efforts to support the city and its people after 9-11. From the emotional moments of connection with families of the victims to the way the team came together to provide comfort and support, Randy's story is a testament to the enduring power of baseball to bring people together.

As the conversation unfolds, Kevin, Cristyne and Randy delve into the significance of the upcoming game and the importance of remembering the past. They discuss how the nation's response to 9-11 was different from its response to other tragedies, like Pearl Harbor, and how the younger generation's understanding of the event is crucial for its continued relevance.
