Radio Tatas (Natalie and Lala) discover NYCCR.
Radio Tatas narrate a classic NYCCR clip in which host Pat Dixon and guest Nate Fridson discuss various aspects of the Hebrew practice of metzitzah b'peh (the ritual sucking of the blood off the penis of a newly circumcised baby by the mohel) which has been linked to herpes in ultra-Orthodox infants, even causing death in one baby.

Bob O. Kurlan and host Pat Dixon cover the bizarre death of a 20-yr-old man who committed suicide by jumping down into the track bed at an elevated platform in Carroll Gardens, laying his head on the track and beheading himself courtesy of an incoming F (or G) train. That's followed by a conversation about the arrest of a young woman, following her false report of a rape implicating 2 college football players. She was charged with falsely reporting a crime and falsifying evidence, a felony.
