0:33
Speaker 2: Trump has a new strategy when it comes to Iran,
0:39
Speaker 2: Trump is now floating. They spoke with Actually we did
0:43
Speaker 2: an interview on Real America's Voice.
0:46
Speaker 3: You know what that is. It's okay, it's not a cable.
0:49
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is.
0:50
Speaker 2: It's you got Fox News, you got Newsmax. These are
0:55
Speaker 2: the two big, you know, conservative cable. You got Five Business.
1:00
Speaker 2: That's very good too, especially Cudlow. That's probably the best
1:04
Speaker 2: show to be watching every day. In fact, I'll be
1:06
Speaker 2: on that today. But then you got these other things
1:09
Speaker 2: called I can't remember what they're called. There's like Real
1:13
Speaker 2: America's Voice, there's another one called One America Net. I
1:18
Speaker 2: mean they got old. These are the like the little ones.
1:20
Speaker 2: And sometimes they will, you know, some of those shows
1:25
Speaker 2: on there will call me to be on and I'll
1:27
Speaker 2: say no. So I don't know why. I don't know
1:28
Speaker 2: why President Trump is doing it, but he likes to
1:31
Speaker 2: do interviews.
1:32
Speaker 3: He does a lot of interviews. All right.
1:34
Speaker 2: Some of you were saying, Hey, I've seen you on
1:36
Speaker 2: those shows on Real America's Voice and the One Net
1:39
Speaker 2: or whatever. Yeah, once in a while, because I'm always
1:44
Speaker 2: working on my TV setup at home. You know, get
1:46
Speaker 2: your little TV studio. You can do a lot of
1:48
Speaker 2: shows from there. So if I got to test a
1:50
Speaker 2: lighting or a new microphone, that's why you do it,
1:52
Speaker 2: just to test it. I shouldn't have said that on
1:54
Speaker 2: the ear. But he's on this Real America's Voice, he said.
1:58
Speaker 2: When it comes to Iran, he's looking at it. If
2:00
Speaker 2: you easy relaxed war phase, I don't know what that is,
2:07
Speaker 2: an easy relaxed war phase. Trump said an interview that
2:12
Speaker 2: he's frustrated with the rans devious negotiators and felt that
2:18
Speaker 2: he could try to bop along.
2:21
Speaker 3: That's a quote.
2:22
Speaker 2: He'll bop along and win the conflict through financial leverage. Okay,
2:28
Speaker 2: now this sounds terrible. This sounds like the dumbest worst
2:31
Speaker 2: war strategy ever. Makes it sound like he doesn't know
2:34
Speaker 2: what the hell he's doing. But it's Donald Trump, so
2:38
Speaker 2: behind that is probably some incredible strategy. Probably knows exactly
2:42
Speaker 2: what he's doing here. But he says, we could just
2:45
Speaker 2: keep it alone. I don't know what that means. We
2:50
Speaker 2: just just keep it alone, he said, and they're going
2:52
Speaker 2: to fail. We could just keep you know, doing sort
2:55
Speaker 2: of like nice and easy, relaxed. These are quotes. I'm
3:00
Speaker 2: sort of negotiating. You see, they're very devious negotiators. They'll
3:04
Speaker 2: agree to something, then they'll go out and tell the
3:07
Speaker 2: press they never agreed to it. They're very dishonest people. Now,
3:11
Speaker 2: he said, the other option has hit them really really hard. Okay,
3:14
Speaker 2: well that's the option most people want. But he said
3:17
Speaker 2: the other option is just beat them economically, which we're doing.
3:22
Speaker 2: And he said again here was just bop along. He's
3:25
Speaker 2: got to stop saying bop along, just bop along. And
3:28
Speaker 2: look how bad they're doing because they're nations. They got
3:31
Speaker 2: three hundred percent inflation, the currency has no value at all.
3:36
Speaker 2: They're not paying their soldiers, they're hang on. That's the
3:41
Speaker 2: president now yelling at it.
3:43
Speaker 3: Where was they?
3:44
Speaker 2: They're not paying their soldiers, Their soldiers are leaving, deserting,
3:51
Speaker 2: so just keep this up. It's not sustainable for them.
3:54
Speaker 2: The country is poised to just collapse. Yeah, all right,
4:02
Speaker 2: I don't know. It doesn't sound good. It doesn't sound good,
4:04
Speaker 2: but who knows. You never know with him. With him,
4:07
Speaker 2: he just sees things down the road nobody else can see,
4:09
Speaker 2: so it might. I don't think it sounds terrible, but
4:14
Speaker 2: that's checking a month and see if he was right.
4:15
Speaker 2: The whole place is collapsing, three hundred percent inflation. People
4:20
Speaker 2: just regular citizens now are forced to go into stores
4:22
Speaker 2: and just steal food. You know, this is the Supreme
4:26
Speaker 2: Leadership Council, which is a bunch of guys hiding in
4:28
Speaker 2: a cave they're out of They don't have an air force,
4:32
Speaker 2: they don't have a navy, they don't have anything. So
4:34
Speaker 2: it's possible. When he says do this for a couple
4:37
Speaker 2: of months, I think he's talking about through the midterms.
4:41
Speaker 2: Just get through the midterms, and then he can do
4:43
Speaker 2: whatever the hell he wants. You can just level the
4:45
Speaker 2: whole place after that, But you never know if it
4:48
Speaker 2: just collapses completely. Now you might say, well, Russia keep
4:51
Speaker 2: supplying them, China, We'll keep supplying. Well, it's not going
4:55
Speaker 2: to work because we took out all the railroads in
4:58
Speaker 2: that last round. We just took away all their railroad lines.
5:01
Speaker 2: Got no way to get stuff in there. So and
5:04
Speaker 2: by the way, President Trump now jumping in on the
5:07
Speaker 2: Pieta terror tax, he finally has said something about it,
5:12
Speaker 2: and he said it's just the dumbest, stupidest, amateur hour move.
5:16
Speaker 2: It's a dangerous political experiment to just target people and
5:21
Speaker 2: to try to tax them out of New York. He said,
5:23
Speaker 2: it will destroy was once a great state and city.
5:27
Speaker 2: It's pure amateur hour. He also said the federal government
5:31
Speaker 2: will now look into it. It may be a totally
5:33
Speaker 2: illegal tax. The court here in New York has stopped
5:37
Speaker 2: it and temporarily and is looking at it. But it
5:40
Speaker 2: may be it just may be a totally illegal thing,
5:44
Speaker 2: and maybe the federal government can shut it down. But
5:46
Speaker 2: you probably will never see that Pieta tear tax. You
5:49
Speaker 2: got to remember, whenever Mom Donnie promises anything, you're never
5:52
Speaker 2: going to live to see it. You'll never see free
5:55
Speaker 2: buses in New York. You will never see a government
5:57
Speaker 2: grocery store. They'll never get one open, and you will
6:00
Speaker 2: never probably probably never see this Pieta tear at tax.
6:04
Speaker 2: It was a rough thing for people to all of
6:07
Speaker 2: a sudden hear about it, because half the people don't
6:09
Speaker 2: know what the hell a Pieta terr attacks is a
6:12
Speaker 2: Pieta terror attacks. You know, most people are running around
6:15
Speaker 2: looking for a dictionary trying to look up Pieta terror
6:17
Speaker 2: whatever the hell that. It sounds like something you'd order
6:19
Speaker 2: in a French restaurant. The Pieta terror attacks. Also, lots
6:25
Speaker 2: of stuff going on all over the place. CNN now
6:29
Speaker 2: on the warpath because of El Sayad.
6:33
Speaker 3: You know this.
6:34
Speaker 2: You know his name is what is his actual name,
6:37
Speaker 2: abdul Achmann El Sayad. So some people are saying his
6:45
Speaker 2: full name. CNN going crazy saying this is an anti
6:50
Speaker 2: Muslim attack. By using his full name, it's anti Muslim. Well,
6:54
Speaker 2: you know they did that with Obama when the President Trump,
6:57
Speaker 2: he'd say Barak Whussein Obama, that's his name. Well, you're
7:02
Speaker 2: saying it just to cause him problems. Well, yeah, I
7:06
Speaker 2: guess you could. They did that with a Bush senior.
7:09
Speaker 2: You know, they always called them George Herbert walker Bush,
7:13
Speaker 2: trying to make them sound like some preppy, you know,
7:16
Speaker 2: prep school, Ivy League, out of touch elite, waspy elite,
7:23
Speaker 2: George Herbert walker Bush and trying to make them sound
7:26
Speaker 2: like one of those vineyard vine type idiots.
7:30
Speaker 3: And it worked.
7:31
Speaker 2: It worked with some people. So it's fair to say
7:34
Speaker 2: somebody's full name. If it's his name, you should be
7:37
Speaker 2: able to say it. You see that story about Mark Zuckerberg.
7:39
Speaker 2: He's got this incredible yacht, three hundred million dollar yacht,
7:44
Speaker 2: three hundred million for this yacht. You know, most of
7:48
Speaker 2: these guys only use the yacht in the summer, and
7:51
Speaker 2: usually for a month like August, everybody uses their yacht
7:54
Speaker 2: for the month, and then maybe Christmas they use the yacht.
7:58
Speaker 2: Maybe there's another vacation with go out on the yacht
8:01
Speaker 2: three hundred million for like six weeks a year, five
8:04
Speaker 2: six weeks a year, you know, for about two million,
8:07
Speaker 2: you get just charted the yacht for the month. But
8:10
Speaker 2: he's out on a three hundred million dollar yacht. But
8:12
Speaker 2: you got to remember, if you're worth four hundred billion,
8:17
Speaker 2: three hundred million, that's like thirty dollars. That's all it
8:20
Speaker 2: is to you. So he's out in the yacht. You know,
8:23
Speaker 2: on a yacht that size, you got a crew of
8:25
Speaker 2: probably twenty five people, and there's a ship in trouble.
8:31
Speaker 2: There's a small ship that's in trouble sending out calls
8:34
Speaker 2: that they're stranded. And when you're out there, you're supposed
8:38
Speaker 2: to help any other ship that needs help that puts
8:40
Speaker 2: out a distress call. But the Zuckerberg yacht didn't bother.
8:45
Speaker 2: It was a twenty one foot skiff that ran out
8:47
Speaker 2: of fuel and was stranded. This is off the coast
8:49
Speaker 2: of Alaska, and you're supposed to help the other ship,
8:54
Speaker 2: but they didn't. The Zuckerberg three hundred million dollar yacht
8:58
Speaker 2: couldn't be bothered, and they kept going. Zuckerberg is now
9:01
Speaker 2: defending the crew, saying they did not hear the radio call.
9:05
Speaker 2: They were on a different radio channel, monitoring another channel.
9:09
Speaker 2: Everybody pointing out it's the default emergency radio frequency. All
9:14
Speaker 2: boats are expected to monitor it at all times. However,
9:20
Speaker 2: Zuckerberg is saying, you must answer a distress call, but
9:26
Speaker 2: this was a request for help, not a distress call,
9:30
Speaker 2: and he's saying it's a different category. They didn't have
9:33
Speaker 2: to answer that. It just sounds pretty cheesy three hundred
9:37
Speaker 2: million dollar yacht letting this little twenty one foot skiff
9:40
Speaker 2: suffer out there. There's actually no legal obligation that you
9:45
Speaker 2: have to help, but it's just considered normal procedure that
9:50
Speaker 2: you help. But that's that's Zuckerberg for you. Now, last
9:55
Speaker 2: night you got a lot of things happening election wise.
9:57
Speaker 2: You had Governor Lamont winning the primary. He will seek
10:02
Speaker 2: re election.
10:02
Speaker 3: A lot of other parties around the country.
10:04
Speaker 2: Nobody needs to hear him. Now in this November he'll
10:08
Speaker 2: be Lamont against the Republican candidate Ryan Fazzio. Fazzio is
10:13
Speaker 2: a very good guy. He'd be a great governor, great
10:16
Speaker 2: Republican governor. So in November, vote for Fazzio, get rid
10:20
Speaker 2: of this Lamont. Lamont sometimes is a good governor, but
10:24
Speaker 2: half the time he goes crazy, woke and does all
10:27
Speaker 2: kinds of crazy things. Our buddy Mike Lindell, he lost
10:31
Speaker 2: in Minnesota, did not get the nomination.
10:34
Speaker 3: If we don't find anything, you know, then obviously I
10:39
Speaker 3: will get behind.
10:40
Speaker 2: And now he's going to start looking at the votes.
10:42
Speaker 2: You know, this is not a good idea for Lindell.
10:44
Speaker 2: You know, Lindell was quite the wealthy guy. My Pillow
10:47
Speaker 2: was quite a successful company, Great Pillows, Big Spot. I
10:50
Speaker 2: think they were our single biggest advertiser here and they
10:53
Speaker 2: spent a ton of money. Remember how many my Pillow
10:56
Speaker 2: ads there were. Well, he got into that dominion election
11:00
Speaker 2: fraud and it cost him a lot of money. He
11:04
Speaker 2: got sued like crazy, and all you know, everything went wrong,
11:07
Speaker 2: and I don't think there's that much money now in
11:09
Speaker 2: Lindell world. I think my Pillow suffered financial everybody suffered financially,
11:15
Speaker 2: And in fact, I think he's pretty much had a
11:19
Speaker 2: step down from my pillow. He I think owns a
11:22
Speaker 2: piece of it, but it's not running it anymore. But
11:26
Speaker 2: a sign of what I'm saying is Lindell did not
11:29
Speaker 2: spend much running for governor. He was outspent like eleven
11:32
Speaker 2: to one. But he's now talking about he shouldn't do
11:35
Speaker 2: this again. He's going to look at the votes, and
11:38
Speaker 2: he doesn't. He's not conceding just yet. Well like ninety
11:42
Speaker 2: eight percent of the vote is in Lindell lost by
11:45
Speaker 2: eleven points. That's not even close. So I think he
11:49
Speaker 2: should just give that up and move on. The wacko
11:53
Speaker 2: in Wisconsin Hong, the one who want to ban, Thanksgiving ban,
11:58
Speaker 2: this ban, that ban, everything you'll like hang was defeated,
12:02
Speaker 2: So that's good news. Wisconsin got rid of their woke
12:06
Speaker 2: socialist idiot. However, that's not the same thing in Minnesota.
12:10
Speaker 2: And Minnesota they did vote in one of these wacko
12:13
Speaker 2: socialists in the primary, so not a good sign. But
12:17
Speaker 2: most likely Amy Klobcher will win and be the next
12:21
Speaker 2: governor of Minnesota, and then you'll see Tim Waltz out
12:26
Speaker 2: of office. I don't know what the hell that guy's
12:28
Speaker 2: going to do. One silly, wacky guy. Probably, you know
12:32
Speaker 2: when we say I don't know what he's gonna do.
12:35
Speaker 2: Whenever you say that, especially politician, anybody, whenever they leave,
12:39
Speaker 2: see I don't know what he's going to do. Well,
12:40
Speaker 2: I know what he's going It's going to be a podcast.
12:42
Speaker 2: Everybody ends up with a podcast. Look at this, the
12:46
Speaker 2: Obamas are back. You remember Michelle Obama had that podcast
12:50
Speaker 2: that was just awful, just a disaster. It was the
12:54
Speaker 2: worst podcast ever. It was Michelle Obama rambling about nothing.
12:59
Speaker 2: You know, she looks, it's very classy when you see
13:01
Speaker 2: her up there, she looks very distinguished, looks classy. It
13:04
Speaker 2: looks when you hear this podcast, you realize this is
13:07
Speaker 2: a bubblehead who's got absolutely nothing to say, nothing to say,
13:12
Speaker 2: not that bright, absolutely no personality, and nothing to say.
13:16
Speaker 2: So they're coming back to the Obama's but this time
13:18
Speaker 2: it'll be Barack Obama with her because he's a much
13:21
Speaker 2: better talker. Obviously, the new podcast will debut. Now, what
13:26
Speaker 2: do you think they're going to be doing? The Barack
13:28
Speaker 2: Obama Michelle podcast. It'll be about great books.
13:36
Speaker 3: Now.
13:36
Speaker 2: He said people don't read like they used to read,
13:40
Speaker 2: and he wants to get people reading again. It will
13:42
Speaker 2: focus on great Well, if people don't do something anymore,
13:46
Speaker 2: it's because they don't want to do it anymore. And
13:48
Speaker 2: if they really don't want to do it anymore, the
13:49
Speaker 2: last thing they're looking for is a podcast about something
13:52
Speaker 2: they don't like. But it's going to be about six
13:55
Speaker 2: great books. He will focus on the six great books.
13:58
Speaker 2: The podcast will be called a Great Book with Barack Obama.
14:02
Speaker 2: Hell of a title.
14:03
Speaker 3: Huh the books?
14:05
Speaker 2: Let me see what the books are? The Fire Next
14:08
Speaker 2: Time by James Baldwin, Song of Solomon by Tony Morrison.
14:16
Speaker 2: See these are all Barack Obama type books. Tinker Taylor,
14:20
Speaker 2: Soldier spy that's John Lecare who's a great British spy writer. Okay,
14:25
Speaker 2: it's a good book, but you know what, rather watch
14:27
Speaker 2: a James Bond movie than read that thing. All the
14:30
Speaker 2: King's Men by Robert Penwarren. That's a classic about Hughey Long,
14:34
Speaker 2: you know, southern politician. But again, if you're not in politics,
14:38
Speaker 2: you really don't.
14:39
Speaker 3: Want to read that.
14:40
Speaker 2: These are extremely outdated books. This is a recipe for
14:44
Speaker 2: disaster this podcast. So remember when you were in high school,
14:49
Speaker 2: you were they make you read these books and you
14:51
Speaker 2: didn't know what the hell you were reading. They made
14:54
Speaker 2: you read these books. Remember one of them was what
14:56
Speaker 2: the hell was that book called Silas Marner? Remember that,
15:02
Speaker 2: I don't know what the hell I was reading? And
15:04
Speaker 2: you had to take a test on it, like so
15:06
Speaker 2: you had to pretend to read it, and then you'd
15:09
Speaker 2: get the cliff notes. And even in the cliff notes,
15:11
Speaker 2: you couldn't figure out what the hell this book was
15:12
Speaker 2: about or why you were reading it. And they talk
15:15
Speaker 2: about what a great important literature, this, what a novel
15:19
Speaker 2: it some ofst boring, stupid. You notice you never saw
15:21
Speaker 2: a movie Silas Marner. There may have been one, but
15:24
Speaker 2: you notice totally bumped because there's nothing there. Hey, we'll
15:28

Speaker 3: I think he's still alive.
17:26
Speaker 2: But you know what, go to any when you go
17:28
Speaker 2: to a podcast app, just type in Peter Marshall. He
17:30
Speaker 2: does a lot of podcasts. He is one of the
17:32
Speaker 2: most funniest storytellers. Tell us the greatest show business stories. Good.
17:37
Speaker 2: Just google Peter Marshall on a podcast and look for him.
17:41
Speaker 2: What do you want to say?
17:42
Speaker 4: One of the great game show hosts of all time too.
17:45
Speaker 4: Macau's not a good thing that Hong lost. I'll tell
17:48
Speaker 4: you why, because Tiffany, who was going to be the
17:52
Speaker 4: who was going to be the governor of Wisconsin, would
17:54
Speaker 4: have thrashed her big time. He would have won by
17:56
Speaker 4: twenty points. Now the other guy, Crowley is going to
17:59
Speaker 4: be Tiffany because he's a woke Democrat. He's a file
18:02
Speaker 4: left Democrat, and he's part of the establishment. It was
18:05
Speaker 4: bad that you just said that it's a good thing
18:08
Speaker 4: harm lost. It's a bad thing that still lost.
18:11
Speaker 2: We don't want to see any of these honks around.
18:12
Speaker 2: We just want to get rid of these honks.
18:15
Speaker 3: We don't.
18:16
Speaker 4: We need more normal people in these offices.
18:19
Speaker 3: In Boston, you got the most wacko left wing mayor governors.
18:23
Speaker 4: Please don't don't get me sick. Don't They just passed
18:25
Speaker 4: an abortion a lot. You can have an abortion up
18:27
Speaker 4: until nine months. It's so it's so sickening. I know
18:30
Speaker 4: you're a pro choice, but I don't. I don't believe
18:32
Speaker 4: in abortion at nine months. And this whole state doesn't
18:36
Speaker 4: do Jack.
18:37
Speaker 3: There's a lot of problem. I think you're gonna need
18:39
Speaker 3: to worry about but.
18:41
Speaker 4: Please, Mack, this is this is an awful, awful state,
18:44
Speaker 4: just like New York State. It's just and do you know,
18:47
Speaker 4: have have have Bruce Blakeman on as much as you
18:49
Speaker 4: can mock.
18:50
Speaker 3: We do we do?
18:51
Speaker 4: We do?
18:52
Speaker 3: We do? Anyway, it's only a three hours.
18:56
Speaker 2: You got to stop at some point. Anyway, great talking you.
18:58
Speaker 2: I just want to make for calling callmore often. Let's
19:01
Speaker 2: go to uh Bob in the beautiful Naples, Florida. Bob,
19:05
Speaker 2: how you doing?
19:07
Speaker 5: Yep, it's beautiful. Well I got something to say about this.
19:11
Speaker 5: So this bopping around Iran, it is that's a smacking
19:18
Speaker 5: of face to American people, which we're toldos of four
19:20
Speaker 5: weeks by week war. Now we're into seven miles.
19:22
Speaker 2: Right, let's not get let's around, let's let's not get
19:25
Speaker 2: carried away. It's not a smack in the face to
19:27
Speaker 2: the American people. It sounded like a Democrat now, hyperbolic, hysterical.
19:33
Speaker 2: It's a dumb thing for the president to say. You
19:35
Speaker 2: shouldn't say, uh, We're going to have an easy, relaxed
19:38
Speaker 2: word and we're bopping. That's kind of dumb. I wouldn't
19:40
Speaker 2: have said it. But it's not a slap in the
19:42
Speaker 2: face to the American PIA getting rid of Iran's nuclear
19:45
Speaker 2: stuff and finally stopping their terrorist activities. It's it's still
19:50
Speaker 2: a good thing. Let's go to Mitch in Iowa. Mitch,
19:53
Speaker 2: how you doing?
19:55
Speaker 6: Hey good, marquee. I was talking about some books here
19:58
Speaker 6: with my wife and I. Do you remember that Bill
20:01
Speaker 6: O'Reilly wrote a novel called Those Who Trespass?
20:05
Speaker 3: No idea.
20:06
Speaker 6: It's actually really good.
20:07
Speaker 3: Okay, what sounds good. He's a good writer. He writes
20:10
Speaker 3: some good books. What do you do?
20:11
Speaker 6: I don't know why he doesn't write more.
20:13
Speaker 3: Well, he's got another book coming out. It's called Confronting America.
20:17
Speaker 6: That's yeah, but I mean novels anyway.
20:19
Speaker 3: I like nonfiction books better. What do you do in Iowa?
20:24
Speaker 6: I'm retired?
20:25
Speaker 3: Oh what did you do?
20:28
Speaker 6: I was in a tech business.
20:32
Speaker 2: They have tech in Iowa. I can't believe that. Oh
20:35
Speaker 2: my god, what like a butter churn or something? What
20:37
Speaker 2: kind of tech do they have?
20:38
Speaker 1: It was?
20:39
Speaker 3: It was wireless wireless in Iowa. Look at you people. Yeah,
20:42
Speaker 3: you're really progressing there.
20:43
Speaker 2: I like that. All right, thanks for calling Mitch. Take care.
20:46
Speaker 2: Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing.
20:50
Speaker 1: Good morning, Mark. Before I get to my main point,
20:53
Speaker 1: the only problem with this relaxed war is the gas
20:57
Speaker 1: companies are not really taking hair foot off the gas.
21:01
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they are.
21:01
Speaker 1: A little record prop is four forty nine a gallop
21:06
Speaker 1: for record.
21:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's New York. It's it's not it's not that
21:08
Speaker 2: much everywhere else. That's that's all New York state and
21:10
Speaker 2: local tax.
21:11
Speaker 1: All right? Does everyone speak it about right now?
21:15
Speaker 2: Eighty two dollars a barrel, which is it's not really low,
21:18
Speaker 2: but it's not really high either.
21:19
Speaker 1: It's okay speaking about presidents and senators and wives of
21:26
Speaker 1: mayors and wives of presidents abusing the office. Does anybody
21:31
Speaker 1: remember the summer before Barack Obama's mandate was over, Michelle
21:36
Speaker 1: went on a vacation and she took thirty guests with
21:40
Speaker 1: Art on what was it Air Force one or one
21:43
Speaker 1: of the Air Force planes?
21:45
Speaker 3: And yeah, you're right, you're right, good point. No complaining
21:48
Speaker 3: about that from the press.
21:50
Speaker 1: That's Oprah Winfrey was on that. I mean, Oprah Winfrey
21:53
Speaker 1: could pay for everybody else. But that was all on
21:56
Speaker 1: the arm.
21:57
Speaker 2: But den't be honest, if you were married to Michelle Obama,
22:00
Speaker 2: wouldn't you want her to take a long vacation.
22:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely will mention the Alvin the Chipmunk's wife.
22:08
Speaker 1: That's what Michelle Obama looks like to me. She looks
22:11
Speaker 1: like she stored a bunch of peanuts in her team.
22:16
Speaker 2: Thanks for calling, Vincent, good call. Yeah, Now it's if
22:21
Speaker 2: you were married to her. You can see that look
22:22
Speaker 2: in Obama's face that she must be as much as
22:26
Speaker 2: a pain in the next years in public, imagine in private. Hey,
22:29
Speaker 2: when we come back, we'll talk to Roger Friedman, the
22:32
Speaker 2: Great Entertainment Report. Now, what's going on with all these guys?

Speaker 3: you can see it. Yeah.
23:36
Speaker 2: Oh, because at one o'clock this afternoon, I'm m seeing
23:39
Speaker 2: a luncheon which is which is? But it's very high
23:44
Speaker 2: up at the top of a skyscraper and it's a
23:47
Speaker 2: fantastic all windows. So are you telling me it's going
23:50
Speaker 2: to get dark in the middle of that?
23:52
Speaker 3: I know. But you have to bring your little glasses,
23:55
Speaker 3: you know, the uh oh, the special glasses that you
23:58
Speaker 3: look through because you don't want to look direct at
24:00
Speaker 3: the sun. Yeah, otherwise you'll have a problem. But you
24:03
Speaker 3: know that. Carly Simon sang about that about taking your
24:09
Speaker 3: lyric jet up to the DEVI scull. Wait, I'll tell
24:12
Speaker 3: you what's the song You're So Vain? That was the
24:14
Speaker 3: song You're So Vain? Yeah, And she has a new
24:17
Speaker 3: album coming out tomorrow. Night at Midnight for her first
24:20
Speaker 3: album in eighteen years, and it's fabulous. It's got already
24:24
Speaker 3: got two hits on it and it's getting rave reviews. Now.
24:28
Speaker 2: There's one song where she sort of says about James Taylor,
24:31
Speaker 2: I never really loved you?
24:32
Speaker 3: Is that true? She says? The question is yeah, she says,
24:36
Speaker 3: did I really love you? Did you really love me?
24:40
Speaker 3: It's a cool song. Actually, it's very it's as you
24:42
Speaker 3: can imagine, it's very catchy because that's a Carly Simon melody.
24:47
Speaker 2: I still can't imagine Carly Simon married to James Taylor.
24:50
Speaker 2: You to be honest about it, I just can't say.
24:52
Speaker 3: Ten eleven years. Yeah, what was that? They have two children,
24:55
Speaker 3: there's several grandchildren, and I know it's hard to believe,
24:59
Speaker 3: but it happened. So she's got a new album coming out.
25:01
Speaker 3: How does her voice sound? Her voice sounds perfect. She
25:05
Speaker 3: couldn't sound better. Uh, it's it's an album full of
25:09
Speaker 3: hits and it's called Comes Comes in Waves, and I
25:16
Speaker 3: think people are really gonna like it. And already the
25:19
Speaker 3: response to the first two songs. One song is called
25:21
Speaker 3: Peaches and one song is called Hell which I call
25:25
Speaker 3: which has a great line and called love a Liar.
25:29
Speaker 3: But it's it's already happening on Amazon and actually comes
25:34
Speaker 3: out at midnight tomorrow night. But in the meantime, you
25:37
Speaker 3: can fly your leer jet up to Nova Scotia. Yeah.
25:40
Speaker 2: Now that song, you're so vain. We're pretty sure it
25:43
Speaker 2: was Warren Baty. Has that been I think so, don't you?
25:47
Speaker 2: I think it is. But she's always been cagey about it.
25:51
Speaker 2: Sometimes she said it's about it's three different.
25:52
Speaker 3: People, yeah, combined, but it is one of the great
25:59
Speaker 3: you know, Taylor Swift points to these songs. Now you
26:02
Speaker 3: have to guess who they're about. But the original person
26:04
Speaker 3: who did it was Carly Yeah, you know, she was
26:07
Speaker 3: really uh and and tell us Swift, you know, revers
26:11
Speaker 3: her so much that she's asked her to come be
26:14
Speaker 3: on stage with her to sing here. So then really,
26:17
Speaker 3: which is pretty interesting. Yes, she's done it several times. Yeah.
26:21
Speaker 3: Now some of these so that's so it's a big
26:23
Speaker 3: music week. Yeah.
26:24
Speaker 2: But some of these older artists, we love them. They're
26:26
Speaker 2: the elder Statesman, but they probably too old to tour,
26:29
Speaker 2: you know, Rod Stewart, thank you.
26:32
Speaker 3: Rod Stewart. Well, Franky Valley Listen he's ninety two. He's
26:37
Speaker 3: very fragile, and they had him until about six months ago.
26:41
Speaker 3: They had him out there touring all the time, so
26:44
Speaker 3: that was enough, and now he looks like he's packing
26:47
Speaker 3: it in. Rod Stewart is only eighty one, and for
26:51
Speaker 3: the last few months people have been complaining that he
26:55
Speaker 3: didn't seem really with it. Well, of course, it turned
26:57
Speaker 3: out he needed a cardiac stent. He couldn't breathe. Now
27:02
Speaker 3: he's going to be fine. Now he's going to come
27:04
Speaker 3: back and be more Rod Stewart than ever he is.
27:07
Speaker 3: But yes, he is. But yeah, he was doing fine,
27:11
Speaker 3: except that he really looked like he wasn't getting enough
27:14
Speaker 3: oxygen and blood through his arteries and he probably had
27:19
Speaker 3: a completely blocked artery. But it is now unblocked and
27:24
Speaker 3: he's going to take off the next month or so
27:27
Speaker 3: and not do anything and see how he feels. But
27:30
Speaker 3: you know, these kinds are human.
27:32
Speaker 4: You know.
27:32
Speaker 3: The thing is that we don't think rock stars are human,
27:35
Speaker 3: but you know they are human, and they have the
27:38
Speaker 3: same people have been canceling shows all summer. Young people too.
27:41
Speaker 3: It's very weird. Yeah, but you know, I don't remember
27:44
Speaker 3: this when we were young. I don't remember this when
27:46
Speaker 3: we were young. No, at a certain age, you know,
27:48
Speaker 3: baseball players like at forty you retire, and football Tom
27:51
Speaker 3: Brady retire. You don't keep trying to play at eighty.
27:53
Speaker 3: I mean, you've got to retire at some point. I
27:55
Speaker 3: don't know. All the singers and all the performers that
27:58
Speaker 3: we liked in the seventies are gonna They're gonna they
28:02
Speaker 3: perform right up to the end. Okay, they're going to
28:04
Speaker 3: be right on the stage when it's when it's they're
28:06
Speaker 3: gonna go straight from the stage to their funerals. All right,
28:10
Speaker 3: there's gonna be nothing in between because they don't do
28:12
Speaker 3: anything else. They don't play golf, you know, they don't
28:14
Speaker 3: play tennis, they don't macrima. So they you know, what
28:19
Speaker 3: are they going to do? They just want to keep it.
28:20
Speaker 3: They don't even need the money, really, they just like
28:22
Speaker 3: to perform. Yeah.
28:24
Speaker 2: Hey, this guy Ari Emmanuel, he is as you watched Entourage,
28:29
Speaker 2: he was Ari Gold. But he ended up owning William Morris.
28:33
Speaker 2: He bought all these talent ages to them. But now
28:35
Speaker 2: what is he up to? Now he's buying Broadway theaters?
28:37
Speaker 3: What is he up to? So we used to have
28:40
Speaker 3: here in New York. We have the Schuberts and the Needlelanders,
28:43
Speaker 3: and the third biggest company was called JUW Jamson and
28:47
Speaker 3: a couple of years ago they sold out to something
28:51
Speaker 3: called ATG from London and they and so ATG owns
28:56
Speaker 3: like sixty four theaters around the world, but seven of
28:59
Speaker 3: them are in on Broadway in ten or in the
29:01
Speaker 3: West End in London. And now ATG has sold to
29:05
Speaker 3: Ari Emmanuel, which is going to be really interesting because
29:08
Speaker 3: we have a new He's been like the new power
29:10
Speaker 3: player in town. It's a in one way, it's a
29:14
Speaker 3: big endorsement of Broadway that he would somebody would come
29:17
Speaker 3: in and pay six billion dollars to own all these theaters.
29:23
Speaker 3: The question is is he going to be using this
29:26
Speaker 3: as a monopoly game and flipping them or is he
29:28
Speaker 3: going to you know, hunker down and really support Broadway.
29:32
Speaker 3: So we'll have to see. But he's definitely a Hollywood
29:36
Speaker 3: power player, which is unusual to have on Broadway in
29:40
Speaker 3: the past. That's always been just people who were interested
29:42
Speaker 3: in theater.
29:43
Speaker 2: Is he trying to be like a live nation where
29:45
Speaker 2: he'll control venues, ticketing, have that kind of.
29:48
Speaker 3: Mindy, Well, he's got he's yes. I mean he's got
29:51
Speaker 3: a few ticket agencies also, so he's trying to combine
29:54
Speaker 3: all these different businesses. This is something you know, Live
29:58
Speaker 3: Nations started this way with a guy named Bob Sillerman
30:01
Speaker 3: who since passed away, But he was the one who
30:04
Speaker 3: originally thought, you know, live productions were going to be
30:06
Speaker 3: the future, and now it's going to be Ari Emmanuel.
30:10
Speaker 3: His brother was the mayor of Chicago and and does
30:14
Speaker 3: talk about running for president.
30:17
Speaker 2: And his other brother is that ghoul Zeka manual, that
30:22
Speaker 2: ghoulish doctor.
30:24
Speaker 3: Is he a ghoul? Yeah, you don't know anything about them.
30:27
Speaker 3: I don't know anything about the brother.
30:28
Speaker 2: The brother's the one that came up with the idea
30:30
Speaker 2: that we should have death panels to decide if you're
30:32
Speaker 2: too old to get any treatment.
30:34
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, that's that's something from like the Hunger Games
30:39
Speaker 3: or something, right. Yeah.
30:42
Speaker 2: Uh hey, what about the the movie box office you got?
30:47
Speaker 2: Is this unusually? You got two of the biggest box
30:49
Speaker 2: office hits ever at the same time.
30:53
Speaker 3: How big are they at the same time? Today? In fact,
30:56
Speaker 3: very today as we speak, Spider Man is hitting some
31:00
Speaker 3: one hundred million dollars in the United States. It's way
31:03
Speaker 3: over a billion dollars worldwide, but seven hundred billion dollars
31:08
Speaker 3: and this is like we're a week three or something. Yeah,
31:12
Speaker 3: it's unbelievable. It's it's spier Man's just going to keep
31:15
Speaker 3: going and going and going until it hits one billion
31:17
Speaker 3: dollars in America. And the Odyssey is doing very well.
31:21
Speaker 3: It is heading toward five hundred right now, five hundred
31:24
Speaker 3: million dollars. And the Odyssey is going to win every oscar.
31:29
Speaker 3: You don't even have to. I would say, just give
31:31
Speaker 3: the oscars now to the Odyssey and then move on
31:33
Speaker 3: to the other movies. And it's worth seeing. It's worth
31:37
Speaker 3: the Odyssey is fantastic. Now we are getting a lot
31:40
Speaker 3: of great movies. I will say, I'm really pushing the
31:42
Speaker 3: New York Film Festival this year. Tickets have just gone
31:45
Speaker 3: on sale. It starts a September twenty fifth at Lincoln Center,
31:49
Speaker 3: and they have a fantastic lineup. I'm really impressed. It's
31:54
Speaker 3: probably the best lineup. You know. We have the Telluride
31:56
Speaker 3: Film Festival and the Toronto Film Festival and then US
32:00
Speaker 3: and they're all good, but the New York Film Festival
32:03
Speaker 3: really out died themselves this year and it's just going
32:07
Speaker 3: to be one hit after another for two weeks. So
32:10
Speaker 3: if you want to see what movies are coming for
32:12
Speaker 3: the Oscars, that's the place to be in September.
32:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, we only have like thirty seconds left, But
32:19
Speaker 2: go back to Broadway from it. How well is Broadway doing?
32:21
Speaker 2: It's Broadway okay. Financially everything's good, broady, Yeah, Broadway's okay.
32:25
Speaker 3: A lot of shows closed, Ragtime is closing at the
32:28
Speaker 3: end of the on the weekend, but you know, a
32:30
Speaker 3: bunch of new shows are coming and that's what happens.
32:33
Speaker 3: And the theaters, you know, the producers have to be
32:37
Speaker 3: more discerning about what they're going to bring in. You
32:40
Speaker 3: can't just bring in a movie that's been turned into
32:43
Speaker 3: a musical. It doesn't work. The shows have to be
32:47
Speaker 3: very creative, you know. They've really had to have to
32:50
Speaker 3: have something behind them. I'm looking forward to like people
32:52
Speaker 3: coming to Broadway in the next two seasons. In the
32:55
Speaker 3: next season, you've got Julia Louis Dreyfus coming in. See
33:01
Speaker 3: you have some really, some really good names. Now, yesterday
33:03
Speaker 3: they announced that Julianne Moore is going to be doing
33:05
