I Am Right Episode: ICE Agent & The NYC Elections


Tonight on I Am Right, we dive straight into the fire.

New York City is heading into another explosive election cycle, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Policies, promises, and political theater are all on the table—but behind the headlines lies a deeper story about law enforcement, immigration, and the people on the ground enforcing America’s toughest decisions.

From street-level operations to the shifting political winds in City Hall, we’ll break down how immigration policy, public safety, and voter sentiment are colliding in NYC and what it all means for the future of the city.


No spin. No filters. Just facts, experience, and unapologetic truth.


You already know the deal… I’m right.

Rockshow episode special tribute show:Brian Wilson

Rockshow episode special tribute show:Brian Wilson


Brian Wilson, born June 20, 1942, in Hawthorne, California, is a legendary American musician, singer, songwriter, and producer best known as the creative force behind The Beach Boys. A musical genius with a gift for harmony and innovation, Wilson helped define the sound of 1960s surf rock before evolving into one of pop music’s most groundbreaking artists.


Wilson co-founded The Beach Boys with his brothers Carl and Dennis, cousin Mike Love, and friend Al Jardine. As the band’s chief songwriter and producer, he crafted hits like “Surfin’ U.S.A.,” “California Girls,” and “Wouldn’t It Be Nice.” His masterpiece Pet Sounds (1966) broke new ground with its emotional depth, orchestral arrangements, and studio experimentation—earning critical acclaim and influencing artists like The Beatles.


Wilson’s career was marked by personal struggles, including battles with mental illness and substance abuse, which sidelined him during key years of the band’s success. The abandoned Smile project became legendary among fans for its ambition and mystery, though Wilson eventually completed and released it as a solo album in 2004.


Despite hardships, Wilson staged a powerful comeback, releasing solo work and touring extensively. He’s been honored with Grammy Awards, an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1988), and the Kennedy Center Honors (2007). His story of brilliance, resilience, and redemption has inspired generations.


Brian Wilson remains one of the most revered figures in popular music history, known for his emotional vulnerability, innovative soundscapes, and timeless melodies.

The Truth behind the crime episode 1 The murder of Roseann Quinn AKA “The goodbar murder”

THE TRUTH BEHIND THE CRIME EPISODE 1

MURDER OF Roseann QuInn AKA

"THE GOODBAR MURDER"


“Looking for Mr. Goodbar” is both a novel and a film, each notable for their dark, psychological exploration of sexuality, identity, and violence in 1970s America.


⸻


📖 The Novel (1975)

  • ​Author: Judith Rossner
  • ​Genre: Psychological fiction / Crime
  • ​Inspiration: Based loosely on the real-life 1973 murder of New York City schoolteacher Roseann Quinn.


🧠 Plot Summary:


The novel centers on Theresa Dunn, a young Catholic schoolteacher in New York City. By day, she’s a respectable educator, but by night, she explores the world of singles bars and one-night stands, trying to assert control over her own sexual autonomy in a rapidly changing society.


Theresa’s dual life spirals as she becomes involved with increasingly unstable men. Her desire for freedom and escape from her strict upbringing leads her into dangerous territory, culminating in a violent and tragic end.

  • ​Themes:
  • ​Female sexuality and freedom
  • ​The danger of double lives
  • ​Urban loneliness and disconnection
  • ​The dark underside of the sexual
  • ​Female sexual empowerment vs. societal repression
  • ​Identity and duality
  • ​Urban alienation
  • ​The dangers of nightlife and casual encounters


Cultural Impact:


The film was controversial upon release due to its sexual content and bleak tone. Diane Keaton’s performance was critically acclaimed, and the film became a cultural touchstone for discussions around women’s liberation, danger, and the complexities of sexual freedom in the post-sexual revolution era.

Truth behind the Crime: Wendy Savino with special guest Frank and Maria DeGennaro

Truth behind the Crime: Wendy Savino Special guest Frank and Maria DeGennaro


Wendy Savino is a remarkable woman whose life encompasses both a harrowing encounter with a notorious serial killer and a rich history in the performing arts.


⸻


🎯 Claimed to be the first Victim of the “Son of Sam” Killer


Despite recent claims by the NYPD, there is still significant doubt that Wendy Savino was actually shot by David Berkowitz, the so-called “Son of Sam.” While the department now retroactively links her 1976 shooting to Berkowitz, it is important to note that he has consistently denied any involvement in her case. Furthermore, for nearly five decades, Savino’s attack was never officially connected to the Son of Sam shootings, which followed a distinct pattern and modus operandi.


Savino’s shooting took place months before the first widely acknowledged Son of Sam attack. The circumstances surrounding her case — including the location, victim profile, and ballistic evidence — do not clearly align with the other known Berkowitz crimes. Relying on decades-old files and newly surfaced accounts to revise history raises concerns about the accuracy of this reclassification.


Until definitive, verifiable evidence emerges — beyond speculation and disputed documents — Wendy Savino’s case should remain separate from the confirmed Son of Sam incidents.



⸻


🎪 Life as a Trapeze Artist and Contortionist


Before her move to the United States, Wendy Savino had a vibrant career as a trapeze artist and contortionist in England. Beginning her performance career in Dartford, she toured the UK by age 15 and performed alongside celebrities like Petula Clark. She credits her physical strength and discipline from her acrobatic background with helping her survive the brutal attack .


⸻


📚 Community Engagement


In her later years, Wendy Savino has been involved with the Pequot Library in Fairfield, Connecticut, serving at the circulation desk and volunteering in communications. She speaks fondly of the warm and friendly staff, expressing enjoyment in her weekly volunteer work .


⸻


Wendy Savino’s story is one of resilience and strength, spanning from the circus rings of England to surviving a serial killer’s attack, and continuing to contribute positively to her community.
