Former Police Commissioner Ray Kelly speaks out against the critics of his department's Stop, Question and Frisk policing policy and shares stories of growing up on the Upper West Side plus lessons learned during his 40-plus years in law enforcement, as detailed in his new book "Vigilance: My Life Serving America And Protecting Its EMPIRE City." And just ahead of the first game of the World Series, we discuss if the 2015 Mets could really go all the way.

On the eve of the third Republican presidential debate, we speak with Michael D'Antonio, author of a new biography "Never Enough: Donald Trump And The Pursuit Of Success." The book was slated to hit shelves in January 2016 but the publication date was moved up as interest and media attention around the current GOP front-runner has grown. As the Mets take the field for their first WORLD SERIES appearance in 15 years, we take a look at another historic win by a long-shot local team: the Brooklyn Dodgers. This year marks the 60th anniversary of the team's 1955 WORLD SERIES victory over the New York Yankees. Sports journalist David Krell provides a historic view of the team's influence.
