  Speaker 3: 800-321-0710.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Don in New York City. Don, how
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: you doing? Yes, hello, Mark.
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: Recently, I was in a doctor's office in the waiting room,
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: and they had a special report on Jeffrey Epstein.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: And every photograph of Jeffrey, there was also Donald Trump
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: was in it.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: What the hell are you talking about? You're in a
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: doctor's waiting room. Where was this report?
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: On either NBC or CBS.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Oh, oh, oh, yeah. Yeah, I see what you mean.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Some woman is now claiming... She was raped by Donald
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Trump with Jeffrey Epstein, something. It sounds like a total
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: fake story. I wouldn't take it. That's why most people
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: are not reporting it, except the fake news. They're running
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: with it, but it seems to be a ridiculous story.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: You can get the Epstein files. They're up online. You
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: can read through them. It's a couple million pages, but
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: you can read through them. If you read the Epstein files,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: all you see is that Epstein hated Donald Trump. They
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: were bitter enemies of And a lot of stuff in
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: there about Epstein was plotting with this little wormy weasel,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Michael Wolff, on how they could destroy Donald Trump, how
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: they could bring him down. Oh, did he hate Donald Trump.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: But go to the Epstein Files. There's a search thing
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: in there. Just type in any name you can search.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: It's a pretty interesting reading. Let's go to Chris in Montreal, Canada. Chris? No,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: good morning.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: No, I'm not in Montreal today.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I'm in New York. Well, it says Montreal here.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: I even told them Manhattan.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Huh?
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. Chris in the Manhattan. Okay, hi. How are
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: you doing? He's the panicking. Everything is always disaster.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Well, no, not today. The guy is cast.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: I heard an ad yesterday from Letitia James encouraging people
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: who shouldn't be voting that they don't have to worry
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: about anything, that they can go and vote anyway.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: How is that even legal?
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: Like, who's legal that has to worry about showing up
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: at a polling place and having ICE get them?
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Well, she's done things that are legally questionable anyway. Her
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: primary residence or other residence.
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: I know, but that's specifically. And also I saw an
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: ad for Kathy Hochul where there's this ER doctor looking very,
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: you know, he's looking in the camera and saying he's
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: so worried about the Medicaid cuts that Blakeman wants.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: There's no Medicaid cuts. No Medicaid cuts from Blakeman.
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: They don't have regular patients.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Well, that's what you have to do if you're Hochul
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: and you're. You're tied in the polls all of a sudden.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: You've got to start doing vicious attack ads. She spent
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: $ 6 million last week on these attack ads.
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: But that thing with Letitia James, that really should be
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: looked into. Who's legal that has to worry about showing
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: up to vote?
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Well, it should be looked into, but she's the attorney general,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: so good luck with that. But listen, when they get desperate,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: they're like cornered rats. They get desperate. Let's go to
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Paul in Long Island. Paul, how are you doing?
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, hi, Mark.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Good morning.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Yes, Paul.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: So, you know, the people that want the horses taken out,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: they're snobs. They just don't like the smell, and that's
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: the bottom line.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: That's what it's about. Well, luckily I have allergies. I
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: can't smell them. No, that could be the reason. But
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the other, it is an elitist kind of thing. But
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: it's believed they want the land that the stables are on.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: There's two huge stables for those horses, one near Hudson Yards.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: One near the Javits Center. It could be very valuable
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: real estate. A lot of big real estate interests might
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: want those properties. And that city council, that governor, those Democrats,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: they're very– well, they're like taxi cabs. You can hire them.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: They should have easy passes on them. All you got
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: to do is put money in and you can go
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: wherever you want with them. Let's go to Greg in
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Jersey City. Greg, how are you doing? Good.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Mark. On your comments on Dan Rather, I
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: don't know if you remember when he got forced out
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: at CBS, the only person that extended him a lifeline
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: was Mark Cuban, who assigned him to do like this
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: show on that Axis cable.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you got to remember, you got to remember
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Mark Cuban was trying to start some media thing and
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: it was hopeless in those days. Online meant nothing. So
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: to grab a big name would have suddenly given his
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: little venture some status. It wasn't that he was a
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Dan Rather fan.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just strange watching Rather interview people like
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Robert Plant or Steve Perry. People like 20 years outside
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: of his age range. It was just strange.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, some of those are up on YouTube. They're actually
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: not bad, some of them, or interviews. People he doesn't
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: know how to interview. I think there's one with Don Rickles.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: It's Dan Rather for like a half hour interviewing them.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: You know, he wasn't bad at that. I mean, he
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: didn't know what he was talking about, but he was
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: pretty folksy. He's got a nice folksy way about him.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: If he wasn't crooked with the fake news and he
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: wasn't so biased, and had he just been Dan Rather
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the nice guy, he could have been as big as Cronkite.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: You never know. Although he wasn't as likable as Cronkite.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Ralph in Manhattan. Ralph, how you doing?
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Hey, Mark, you know, Jesse Kelly may be on to something.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: You know, the talk show hosts got a little bit lazy. And,
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: you know, without Trump, what the heck do you talk about?
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: You know, that's a if you just mention Trump's name,
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: you have a conversation. Now they're actually going to have
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: to improvise a little bit. Not you, of course, but
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: the others I'm talking about.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the others don't have their own content, but I
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: can do fine without. I mean, we love talking about Trump,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: but I don't know if you ever noticed this. But
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: once in a while, I'll do an hour with no
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: politics at all in it. And nobody's ever noticed. I
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: just do it every once in a while to test
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: it out. Nobody's ever noticed. Let's go to Neil in Brooklyn. Neil,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: how you doing? Thank you, Mark.
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: Mark, in this multicultural city, I always try to get
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: along with people for, you know, most of my life.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: And because it's a safe country, you don't get many
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: chances to be a hero. But when I voted Republican
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: the other day, I felt like it was my Oscar
• 6:31
  Speaker 6: Schindler moment. I'm trying to save humanity.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, there you go. A little hyperbolic there.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: A little over-the-top exaggeration.
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: No, I know.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: A little dramatic. Not dramatic. Donald Trump couldn't exaggerate that much.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: What the hell are you talking about saving humanity? You're
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: not Oscar Schindler, but it's good that you voted. Everybody
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: get out there. Do the early voting. You can vote
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: all week. You can vote on the weekend, but do
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: the early voting. There's no line. You go right in
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: there and vote. Don't wait till Election Day. Do the
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: early voting this week. Hey, when we come back, we'll
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: talk to Ann Coulter. She'll be with us next. Lots
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: to talk to her about just ahead on 710WOR.
