On this Friday edition of Bernie & Sid in the Morning, Sid goes solo as Bernie indulges in a three-day weekend. News of the day included Arizona's Kari Lake winning the GOP nomination for Governor, WNBA star Brittney Griner getting sentenced to nine years in a Russian prison after being detained for trying to carry marijuana out of Russia, President Biden playing favorites between Russia and China, the fallout from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's trip to Taiwan heating up tensions between the U.S. and China, and fellow 77 WABC Radio Host Curtis Sliwa telling the listeners to not buy Sid's new book, but actually steal it considering you can get away with just about anything in New York City. Also, do you enjoy pineapple and ice cream after scarfing down Chinese food? Sidney does, leaving the crew stunned with their jaws on the floor. John Tabacco, Rob Shuter, Lee Zeldin and Nancy Lieberman join the program, and as always make sure you don't miss out on Lidia Reports or a special "Beat Sid" edition of The Peerless Boilers Beat Bernie Contest.
