Cristyne Nicholas takes the mic solo this week, filling in for Kevin McCullough with charm and gusto. The show opens on a somber note, honoring Detective Diller Islam, a Bangladeshi immigrant and NYPD hero tragically lost in a recent incident. Thousands gathered in the rain to pay respects, showcasing New York’s unwavering resilience and unity.

The mood lifts with a celebration of New York’s summer spirit. Cristyne recounts a thrilling Yankees comeback win and a powerful luncheon hosted by John Catsimatidis, featuring First Deputy Mayor Randy Master. Despite the week's tragedy, the city’s leadership is pushing forward with record crime reduction and housing development.

Broadway magic takes center stage with Jamie Allen, the UK magician behind “Amaze,” a new show blending storytelling, nostalgia, and tech-driven illusions. Jamie shares his journey from performing in a pub as a child to starring in a heartfelt, high-tech Broadway production. The show officially opens August 13 at New World Stages.

Travel Tuesday’s Linda Perillo joins to dish out Italy travel tips and introduce her new book, Your Payment Method Has Been Declined. It’s a humorous yet poignant memoir about resilience, empathy, and personal growth. Linda encourages first-time travelers to opt for guided tours to ease into the Italian experience.

Finally, Jason Laks from the Broadway League shares the excitement around “Kids Night on Broadway” on August 19. With 18 shows, restaurant discounts, and interactive events, it’s a full-on Broadway bonanza for families. Cristyne wraps up with weekend tips—from Broadway brunches to baseball games and ice bucket challenges—proving that even without Kevin, the fun never stops.
