You know what really bothers me about modern health care? We tend to treat normal as though it's the same thing as healthy. You tell your doctor, you're tired all the time, your energy is down, you're not thinking as clearly as you used to. And what they tell you is, well, I'm going to run a few basic tests, but everything comes back within range, the conversation is over. But you don't feel normal, you don't feel healthy. That's one of the reasons I love Jevity. They take a completely different approach. Instead of looking at a dozen basic labs, they run more than a hundred. Hormone, inflammation, metabolic health, nutrient levels, the things that can help explain how you're actually feeling and may even reveal the problems years before they become a diagnosis. A phlebotomist will come right to your home, real care team reviews your results and they build a personalized plan based on your data, not some one size fits all guideline. No insurance, bureaucracy, no guesswork, just a better way to take ownership of your health. So I want you to go to jevity.com.

Voting irregularities? What? I thought that was conspiracy talk.
What are you talking about?

**Stu Burguiere** (2:03)
Not in the United States.

**Pat Gray** (2:04)
No, the elections are secure here, right? Nothing can happen. Apparently, something did happen, and officials are admitting to some issue with the vote.
So, we'll get into that and much more coming up in one minute.

Cozy Earth's mission is to transform the time that matters most, your sleep, into the most comfortable part of your day. Sleeping in a cooler environment offers several scientifically supported benefits. Studies show that cooler temperatures promote the natural release of melatonin. This leads to a faster sleep onset, better mood regulation and significantly improved sleep quality. That is exactly why Cozy Earth's premium sheets are just such a game changer. Tanya and I love the sheets in the heat of Florida or here at the ranch. These sheets give our bed the luxurious feel and comfort for great sleep. Made from viscose from bamboo, they naturally wick away heat and moisture from your body. They're temperature regulating, helping everybody sleep several degrees cooler to completely eliminate the risk of night sweats. So try them out, completely risk free.

It is Pat and Jeffy for Glenn this week. Did you see the poll in New York City that Zoran Mamdani has a 69% favorability rating?

**Stu Burguiere** (3:49)
And why wouldn't he?

**Pat Gray** (3:50)
69, 24

**Stu Burguiere** (3:51)
He's doing so much for the city.

**Pat Gray** (3:53)
Is he?

**Stu Burguiere** (3:53)
He's doing so much for the city.

**Pat Gray** (3:55)
Why wouldn't he? Cause he sucks.

**Stu Burguiere** (3:58)
What?

**Pat Gray** (3:59)
He's a communist.

**Stu Burguiere** (3:59)
We're talking about-

**Pat Gray** (4:00)
And Islamist.

**Stu Burguiere** (4:01)
We're talking about the mayor.

**Pat Gray** (4:02)
Yeah. Zoran Mamdani. That's who we're talking about. Wow. Yeah.

**Stu Burguiere** (4:05)
Okay.

**Pat Gray** (4:07)
The comments underneath that poll were fascinating to me. Things like, yeah, see what happens when you make promises and deliver, your rating goes up.
What did he deliver on? The free bus thing is out. He promised everybody free bus rides. That's not happening. The grocery stores are years away. The ones that he just talked about with the 30% off, five core products every week or month or whatever it was.

**Stu Burguiere** (4:42)
He's working on those.

**Pat Gray** (4:43)
Those are years away if they ever happen. What's he done so far?

**Stu Burguiere** (4:47)
Then you have the pie to Terry tax, right?

**Pat Gray** (4:50)
Oh, yeah.

**Stu Burguiere** (4:51)
That's going so well because it's designed to apply to owners who don't live full time in New York City properties. But apparently, the reported thresholds, a house would have to be worth more than $5 million.
A condominium or cooperative unit would be subject to the program if it was valued at a million dollars or more.

**Pat Gray** (5:15)
Which is not an extravagant place in New York City. No.

**Stu Burguiere** (5:18)
Well, a judge has ruled that you need to pause that. There's a lawsuit filed because then it doesn't settle the surcharge. The judge is saying, no, you need to put a pause on that because of the legal challenge because the publication of that tax role covered about 960,000 properties or owners that could potentially be subject to the new charge.
