On today's show, we talked about President Trump saying that he and first lady Melania Trump have tested positive for the coronavirus. His positive test comes just hours after the White House announced that senior aide Hope Hicks came down with the virus after traveling with the president several times this week.

New York is set to begin testing 10% to 20% of students and staff in every building monthly today, the same day that middle and high school students return to classrooms. We also talked about DJ LeMahieu’s tiebreaking single in the ninth inning off closer Brad Hand sent the Yankees into the AL Division Series with a wild win over the Cleveland Indians in a Game 2 that started in September and ended in October, and the world came together 25 years ago to chart a new course for half the world’s population to gain the rights, power and status of the other half.  But top U.N. officials say the hopes of achieving equality for women remain a distant goal in today’s more divided, conservative and still very male-dominated world.
