• 0:46
  Speaker 1: to well, let's get to it right now, Mayor. Mom, Donnie,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: you Democrats, you voted for this guy, You Democrats, you
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: stuck us with this, Mom Donnie. I guess he's a
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: nice guy, but he looks like a total in over
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: his head, incompetent, bungling kouk who has no idea what
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: to do. He is suddenly confronted with a twelve billion
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: dollar budget gap, and he said he can't believe it
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: that he finds out there's a twelve billion dollar budget gap.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: He can't believe that this is all of a sudden
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: been discovered, this twelve billion dollar budget gap. What is
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: he talking about? Though everybody knew about this a year
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: ago too. You listen to Eric Adams a year and
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: a half ago.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Now we get people from all over the globe have
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: made their minds up that they're going to come through
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: the southern part of the border and come into New
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: York City. And everyone is saying, it's New York City's problem.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Every community in this city is going to be impacted.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: We had a twelve billion dollar deficit that we're going
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: to have to cut. Every service in this city is
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: going to be impacted.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Well, there's Eric Adams telling you about this a year ago.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: He told you have this and what was the cause?
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: As he pointed out illegals coming in draining city services. Illegals. So, Mom,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Donnie loves these illegals. He wants to be a sanctuary city.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: So he's caused the budget gap with his policy. Now
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: he's complaining about it. So what do you do when
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: you have a twelve billion dollar budget gap? Well, you
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: cut services you have to. But he's not going to
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: do that. He wants to raise taxes. And if he
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: can't get that done, he doesn't have the power to
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: increase your taxes, but he can raise property tax. He's
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: talking about raising property tax ten percent. Now, that's horrible.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Property taxes are already crazy in New York. So to
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: raise him ten percent. And remember, if you're just renting
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: and you don't own, it still affects you. You'll have
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: a ten percent increase because of the property tax. Well,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: actually won't be ten percent because the property tax is
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: only part of your rent, but you your rent will
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: go up. Every body's rent will increase with a property
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: tax increase. Now, wasn't this the guy that ran on
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: a free rent, frozen rent, no renting. He's old. He's
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: in office like five minutes. He's going to increase your rent.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: It's just horrible. He doesn't know what to do. First
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: of all, the budget of New York City is like
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty billion a year. One hundred and
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: twenty billion a year. You know what the budget of
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: other cities the Chicago twelve billion a year. Cities you know, Boston,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Cleveland ten billion a year. Miami, which is a big,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: big city, the budget's like eleven billion a year. New
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: York City budget one hundred and twenty billion a year.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: That's more than the whole state of Florida. It's the
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: craziest budget. Now thirty billion of that is pension funds
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: we got to pay, but a lot of that is
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: just waste and fraud and bloat. If you brought in
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: a doze team, they could cut fifty billion out of
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the budget in two seconds. It would be that simple
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: lot of waste, a lot of fraud. We overpay for everything.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: We've got a million things we don't need to pay for.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: You could cut the budget easily, and you could bring
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: down property tax if you had like a Bruce Blakeman
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: in office. That's what a guy like that would do,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: immediately start to bring in a doze team, find all
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the waste, fraud and lower people's taxes. But mom Donnie
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: wants to raise property tax. It's absolutely insane.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Would rather do is ensure that they remain as they
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: are so that the city can be on firm financial footing. However,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: in order to get to this point of closing the
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: gap on both this fiscal year and the next fiscal year,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: we are forced to raid the Rainy Day Fund, the
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Retiree Health Benefits Trust Reserve, and to increase property taxes
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: across these other years.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Insane, absolutely insane.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: At the heart of this path is a property tax increase.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: This would effectively be a tax on working in middle
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: class New Yorkers who have a median income of one
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: hundred and twenty two thousand dollars.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Now, will he actually do this? Kenny? Actually? Hey, I
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: guess he can. I don't know. Willie actually do this?
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's absolutely insane. Now, if he
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: can't close the budget gap, believe it or not, the
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: governor can take over the city budget. If the city
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: financial situation is all screwed up, the governor can step
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: in and take over. However, she's not exactly a great
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: genius either. I mean, she's not exactly a Warren Buffett
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: when it comes to finance. But I don't know. If
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: he doesn't have the nerve to do much, she doesn't
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: have the nerve to step in. But the idea of
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: raising property tax, raising everybody's rent absolutely insane. This guy
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: is totally in over his head, doesn't know what the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: hell he's doing. Thank you Democrats for giving us a
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: guy like this. Maybe next time, get somebody who's had
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: a job before. Can you imagine this? He's thirty three
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: years old, never worked, never had a job, never worked anywhere,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: And Democrats think that's a guy that should be mayor.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Absolutely ridiculous. We'll get back to him. We'll ge back
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: to him. So Stephen Colbert is going nuts because there's
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: always been this equal time rule. If you have a
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: candidate for office, you're supposed to have the other side
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: on or at least offer it to him. And we
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: would always do that. You remember we had Curtis on
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: a lot when he was running for mayor. Well, if
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Cuomo called up or Mom Donnie said I want equal
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: to of course, we'd give it to him. It's fair,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: it's the right thing to do. You have to do it.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: That equal time law was strictly enforced for years. Over
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the last twenty years, it wasn't really enforced, but it
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: was understood you'd give equal time in a race. But
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Colbert doesn't want to do that. So this guy Tallerico
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: running in Texas. He loves this guy, you know, a
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: crazy left wing guy. So he's been promoting this guy.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: He gave him a big interview and CBS told him
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: he can't air this unless you offer the other side
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: equal time. And Colbert did not want to do that.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: He didn't want to give equal time to the other side.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Typical Colbert. So CBS said, you can't, we won't run
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: it on the network. Now Colbert has a YouTube channel,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: he ran it there. But he went on a little
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: tirade last night reading the letter from CBS lawyers, and
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: then on the air he crumpled it up and then
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: stuck it in a bag of a dog poop. But
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: here's Colbert last night.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: You know who is not one of my guests tonight.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: That's Texas State Representative James Talerico. He was supposed to
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: by our network's lawyers, who called us directly, that we
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: could not have him on the broadcast.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: Then then I was.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: Told in some uncertain terms that not only could I
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: not have him on, I could not mention me not
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: having him on. And because my network clearly doesn't want
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: us to talk about this, let's talk about this.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's a late night talk, a late
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: night show. It's like Johnny Carson The Tonight Show, Jay Leno.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: It's you suppose to be entertaining people. It's right before
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: they go in to bed. It's supposed to be fun entertaining.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Here he is on a tirade about this crazy left
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: wing democrat. And now who is this guy tall Rico?
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Is he a great guest? Is he phenomenal? Well, here's
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: part of the interview. What do you think?
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: I think that Donald Trump is worried that we're about
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: to flip Texas. Across the state, there is a backlash
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: growing to the extremism and the corruption in our politics.
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: It's a people powered movement to take back our state
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: and take back our country. And I feel like we're
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: building something really special in Texas, and clearly Donald Trump
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: has taken note.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know, it doesn't sound like that fascinating a guest.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't say, oh, get that guy on the show.
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I see it. As I said, it's late night television
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: supposed to be entertaining, fun, entertaining, jokes, laughs, put you
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: in a good mood before you go to sleep. Colbert Kimmel,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: they've ruined late night television. They've turned it into a
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: partisan crazy It's like a it's just a Democrat rally.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: It's like a political rally before you go to sleep.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Listen when this guy talks, Listen to the audience respond
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: like they're at a rally.
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: I think that Donald Trump is worried that we're about
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: to flip Texas's.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Supposed to be geting laughs. It's a political rally. So
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Colbert all upset. He's been fired already. He's leaving in May.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: So you got a week and a half of February
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: and then he got all of March April. Now you
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: got two and a half, almost three months. Then you're
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: rid of this guy. You'll never have to hear from
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: him again. Hey, oh whoo, Pee Goldberg. You know she's
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: been yelling and screaming for the Epstein files. You know
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: on the View, they've been screaming and yelling they have
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: to have the Epstein files. Where's the Epstein files? Released them?
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Immediately they're demanding the Epstein files be released. Well, they've
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: been released, and what Pee Goldberg is in the Epstein files.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: So she wasn't too thrilled about that. Now a lot
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: of people are in there for nothing bad. I'm in
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the Epstein files. I came up like five times in
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: the search, but it was all harmless stuff. I was
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: seeing some event he wanted to come to. Somebody was
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: emailing him telling about my show. That that's all. It
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: was nothing bad, but Whoopy's in the Epstein Files. She's
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: apparently going somewhere to do something, and she wants This
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: is a lot of show business people like this. They
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: want everything given to them by somebody. They're like somebody
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: to pay for everything. So she needs to get to
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: this event she's going to, and she wants a private
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: plane to take her. But she doesn't want to pay
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: for it. She wants somebody to donate a private plane
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: to her. And apparently somebody asked Epstein, because Epstein was
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: a starstruck guy, always chasing celebrities, would he want to
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: donate his plane. He didn't. He eventually didn't. But here's
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: a Whoopie trying to talk away out why she's in
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: the Epstein files.
• 10:55
  Speaker 8: I'm telling you, when I tell you, people are trying
• 10:58
  Speaker 8: to turn me into I wasn't his girlfriend.
• 11:02
  Speaker 9: I was for him.
• 11:04
  Speaker 8: I was not only too old, but it was at
• 11:06
  Speaker 8: a time you know where this is just not you
• 11:10
  Speaker 8: used to have to have facts.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Well, the fact is you're in the Epstein files. We
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: didn't think you were his girlfriend.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: But I'm getting dragged.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: People actually believe.
• 11:20
  Speaker 8: That I was with him. It's like, honey, come on,
• 11:24
  Speaker 8: every man that I've ever been with. You've known about
• 11:27
  Speaker 8: him because either the Inquirer wrote it about it, people
• 11:31
  Speaker 8: wrote about this stuff. So no, I never had this.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Ye, not a lot of people really concerned about her
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: love life who she's with. In fact, remember when ted
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Danson was going out with her and everybody made everybody
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: just think ted Danson was nuts. But so she's in
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: the Epstein files. I think it hasn't sunk in a
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Democrats yet that there's nothing really in the Epstein files
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: that's going to help them in any way. Oh, there's
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: a few business guys in there, but ninety nine point
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: nine percent of the guys in there. If there was
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: anything to do with women, it was older women, not underage.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: The underage was Epstein personally and maybe maybe one or
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: two of his friends, maybe Prince Andrew, but that's about it.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: They're having these Epstein hearings. Leslie Wexner, big billionaire, and
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: he was really the first billionaire a million years ago
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: to get behind Epstein and befriend Epstein and put money in.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: So he'll testify today. I don't suggest you watch it live.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: You might doze off listing the Leslie Wexner testified, it's
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: not going to be that exciting. Bruce Springsteen has announced
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: a new tour and apparently this is going to be
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: this is going to be a political rally tour, Springsteen
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: becoming highly partisan. But here's the announcement. He put out,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: we are living through dark, disturbing, dangerous times, but do
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: not despair. The cavalry is coming. Springsteen, you might say,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: a brilliant songwriter, musician, but whenever these guys start talking
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: about politics, they sound like twelve year olds. And I'm
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: afraid you're gonna get a lot of that with Springsteen. Hey,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: the Guthrie kidnapping, the latest you know, the DNA did
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: not match anybody in the database. The problem is if
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: you collect DNA. There is a database, but it's got
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: twenty two million people in it, but it's mostly criminals
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: that have been arrested. I would think they'd have to
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: be arrested in recent years. If it was twenty years ago,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: they might not have been collecting DNA. Also in the
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: database might be people government people, law enforcement, military, that
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: kind of stuff. So the DNA did not match anybody
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: in the database, so it's no real value. The latest
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: clues they've got. They're looking again at that glove. The
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: doorbell camera you can see the guy's big puffy glove,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: but they think under it, underneath the glove, they see
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a little bump that they think, I think is a
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: pinky ring, that he might be wearing a pinky ring,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: so they're looking for that. Also, remember he had a
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: holster on the front, very strange the holster, which usually
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: would be on the side. The holster is like over
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: his crotch. But they're now saying the holster was a
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: very very unusual holster. Very few of those kind of holsters.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: So they're looking at who sells those, where they were sold,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: and then they'll go to whoever sells them, check the
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: receipts and who bought it, and then look at the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: surveillance video see if they get a picture of who's
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: buying it. Now, the only problem is he might have
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: bought it online, but still they'll be able to trace
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: that I who was sold online, where it was delivered
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: to that kind of stuff. Hey, Also, where Nancy Guthrie
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: lived was a very quiet, very very safe neighborhood. There
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: was never any crime, nobody was worried about anything crime wise.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: That's where there was no security that but apparently now
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: the neighbors are all freaked out and they're really worried
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: about their safety. They're afraid. You'll lot of them live alone,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: like Nancy Guffrey, and they want all kinds of security around,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: they want more police all of that. You know, if
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: you talk to law enforcement experts, even in a very
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: very safe neighborhood, you could have occasionally have break ins,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: a home invasion, robbery, that kind of stuff. But kidnapping
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: for money for ransom. Kidnapping for ransom is extremely unusual.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It is very very very rare. It just doesn't happen
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: very much. It's extremely rare. If you're in Mexico, it
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: happens all the time. But in the United States, somebody
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: kidnapping you for ransom, it's just almost non existent. Nowadays,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: there is kidnapping where it's the custody thing, you know,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: the husband and wife split up and the husband or
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: the wife kidnaps the daughter, that kind of stuff, But
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: just a kidnapping of a stranger for ransom extremely rare.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: That's one problem of police. Just deal with it very much.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: It's very unusual. Hey, we'll take some calls next eight
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 16:12

• 17:44
  Speaker 12: of people call me tell me he was talking about
• 17:46
  Speaker 12: my videos yesterday. But I appreciate that.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: From Vincent fishing videos.
• 17:51
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I did a fishing you know, you and I
• 17:54
  Speaker 12: spoke about this before twenty five years. I did fishing
• 17:56
  Speaker 12: on TV and radio in the New York metro area.
• 17:59
  Speaker 12: Be GBB Way Way Long.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: That's way out on Long Island.
• 18:03
  Speaker 12: Yeah, but a guy is all the way up in
• 18:05
  Speaker 12: am signals. You know, they carry you all up and
• 18:07
  Speaker 12: down and skip across the water. That tower was in Freeport,
• 18:10
  Speaker 12: and I can hear me all the way down to
• 18:12
  Speaker 12: Lone Bechild, the South Jersey and up at Connecticut.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: So I gotta be honest. I don't watch a lot
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: of fishing television shows.
• 18:17
  Speaker 12: It's not it's all whole things change. Now a bunch
• 18:20
  Speaker 12: of talking heads telling you what they did, but nobody shows.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: You what a point of fishing. You're just sitting there
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting. It's
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: just it's a waiting game.
• 18:30
  Speaker 12: It's better than working.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Well, no, but if you're playing golf, you keep hitting
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: the ball. You don't have to wait. If you're playing tennis,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: you keep hitting the ball. This fishing is just ninety
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: nine percent is just sitting here waiting.
• 18:42
  Speaker 12: Hey, listen, Mark, half my fantasies. Don't even about me
• 18:45
  Speaker 12: getting off the couch. You know. So fishing is perfect,
• 18:47
  Speaker 12: you know what I'm saying.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: So all right, I mean, if you love waiting, go
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: go go to a doctor's office, go to the tennis
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: He makes your wait for a half hour.
• 18:53
  Speaker 12: If you enjoy waiting, how can they just don't don't
• 18:56
  Speaker 12: take Kolberny's people or I mean it's cost him a
• 18:59
  Speaker 12: lot of money. I know, Cobez fired. You're gonna get
• 19:01
  Speaker 12: room after a lawyer statement last night. Well that's snag.
• 19:04
  Speaker 12: One just tad a plug and the guy and started
• 19:06
  Speaker 12: putting re ones on there. Save a lot of money
• 19:08
  Speaker 12: and make more money on your hands.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, when they take them off. When they take
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: them off, they'll run old shows or something. They'll get
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: triple the ratings. But today it's complicated. It's complicated because
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: you have about one hundred and twenty employees. You got
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: to gradually find a way to do something with them.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: You gotta they got a multi million dollar theater. They
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: got to figure out what to do with. Also, you
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: can't just abandon your affiliates. It's part of the deal.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: When you have a network show, you can't just cancel
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden.
• 19:35
  Speaker 12: You have I remember that.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to give the affiliates at least four
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: months notice or something so they can make other plans. Well,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: thanks for calling, Rich. Let's go to uh, let's go
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: to Dennis in Long Island. Dennis, how you doing.
• 19:51
  Speaker 13: Hello, Hey, Mack, good mock, great show, love a great
• 19:56
  Speaker 13: news Mark. I've got a suggestion. Why don't we get
• 19:59
  Speaker 13: Jimmy Fallon replace called it that America laugh and have
• 20:02
  Speaker 13: a good night, and I talk to so they fail
• 20:05
  Speaker 13: are the best?
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, Jimmy Taylor has a late night show. It's
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: on the Fox News channel. Actually has a bigger audience
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: than Colbert does.
• 20:11
  Speaker 14: So he always does.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no reason for him to believe where he is.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Fox News Channel has a much bigger audience than CBS does,
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: and Jimmy Faylor does the best late night show. It's
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: on Saturday nights at ten o'clock. You know, Colbert does
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: it during the week, and he has like triple the
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: ratings of Colbert, much bigger ratings than Colbert. So it
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: should be their way around. Colbert should try to get
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: on the Fox News Channel because you have a much
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: much bigger audience there. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: how you doing.
• 20:41
  Speaker 15: Good morning, Mark, Mark, I'm okay, Good morning Mara. Mark.
• 20:44
  Speaker 15: Speaking about rent increases. I told you several months ago
• 20:49
  Speaker 15: that I already received my tax assessments and everything. I'm
• 20:53
  Speaker 15: already playing how much I'm gonna raise my tenants and
• 20:58
  Speaker 15: commercial and otherwise.
• 21:01
  Speaker 16: Mark, speaking of as the first you're a landlord if
• 21:04
  Speaker 16: your property tax goes up ten percent, and that doesn't
• 21:09
  Speaker 16: mean you raise the rent ten percent, right, because that's
• 21:11
  Speaker 16: only a question.
• 21:11
  Speaker 15: Devern lease is up, you're gonna get raised that much
• 21:16
  Speaker 15: lease at least, because I'm smart enough that any property
• 21:21
  Speaker 15: I own is not rent stabilized, not rent controlled. It's
• 21:25
  Speaker 15: private property. I can do whatever I want, and I
• 21:29
  Speaker 15: even sing it to my tenants because a lot of
• 21:32
  Speaker 15: them are liberals. I told them, I tell them, you
• 21:34
  Speaker 15: voted for this, You're gonna pay for it. Speaking of
• 21:38
  Speaker 15: equal time and everything with Stephen Colbert, in Italy, there
• 21:42
  Speaker 15: is actually a law. It's called park condeita, which is
• 21:46
  Speaker 15: Latin for equal time. In Italy, during the campaign season,
• 21:52
  Speaker 15: you have a candidate on your show and you give them,
• 21:55
  Speaker 15: let's say, ten minutes of time to talk about their candidacy.
• 21:59
  Speaker 15: And now, like Bendami how he's going to ruin the city,
• 22:02
  Speaker 15: you have to put the opposing side on. You have
• 22:06
  Speaker 15: to give them equal time, even for TV and radio,
• 22:09
  Speaker 15: and if you don't, they do enforce the find. I
• 22:14
  Speaker 15: wish they would do something else now, because there Whoopy
• 22:17
  Speaker 15: Goldberger is ruling. My favorite Italian soap opera. They wrote
• 22:21
  Speaker 15: her in one of my soap operas. It's all an
• 22:24
  Speaker 15: Italian where during the World War Two, her father was
• 22:29
  Speaker 15: played a soldier and he was in Italy and he
• 22:31
  Speaker 15: knocked up an Italian broad So she's going back over
• 22:34
  Speaker 15: there to discover her roots. And it's disgusting.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Vincent, you don't sound a soap opera type. But I
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: have a feeling this is Italian TV.
• 22:42
  Speaker 15: It's Italian TV.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: I have a feeling the women are pretty hot looking
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: in this soap opera.
• 22:46
  Speaker 15: Yeah, it's not about h it's Italian soap opera stories. Yeah,
• 22:54
  Speaker 15: you know what I mean.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: I gotcha. I got youa Hey, where where can somebody
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: see this? You' always talking about Italian TV. Where to see?
• 23:00
  Speaker 15: Well, I've got mine. Of course, nothing's registered under my name.
• 23:05
  Speaker 15: Pay for it, but Roku TV. I pay an extra
• 23:11
  Speaker 15: fee every month and I get all these Italian channels.
• 23:15
  Speaker 15: And the soap opera is called posto al soli, which
• 23:19
  Speaker 15: means a place in the sun. It all takes place.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Sounds good. Everybody goes sign up for Hey, Vincent, we

  Speaker 1: the books at howiecarshow dot com, Howie Cars Show, Howie Carr,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: How you doing very good?
• 24:03
  Speaker 9: I was just reading this story about the oral histories
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: from the Obama years that were released. Pretty funny, Josh Ernest,
• 24:12
  Speaker 9: the last White House Press secretary, I'd forgot even existed
• 24:15
  Speaker 9: out talking about twenty sixteen. The outcome of the election
• 24:19
  Speaker 9: was a direct rebuke of everything we had been trying
• 24:22
  Speaker 9: to do for the last ten years.
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: No kidding, Josh.
• 24:27
  Speaker 9: This just occurred to you in when you were giving
• 24:29
  Speaker 9: the oral history of that failed Obama administration. Wow, did
• 24:35
  Speaker 9: they make funny?
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Did they mention in this oral history that there was
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Obama who sent millions of ice agents out into the
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: street deporting people and they had Tom Holman run it
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: for them. Did they mention that?
• 24:45
  Speaker 9: Well? I guess, I guess. So Trump's election in twenty
• 24:48
  Speaker 9: sixteen was the direct rebuke of that, right because they
• 24:51
  Speaker 9: said every it was a rebuke of everything.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Hey, Howie Carr, do you know that you're in the
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Epstein files?
• 24:59
  Speaker 9: I am yeah, nothing bad.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, well, if you go to the Justice Department.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: In the Epstein Library, they call it. There's a search bar,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: so I'm searching all the people I know were tangled
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: up with him, and then just for the hell of it,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: I type my name and I come up like five times.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: But I mean, well, one time he was going to
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: a lunch where I was the MC. One time somebody
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: was emailing him about my show. So just now I
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: typed your name in the search bar. You came up
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: as somebody was telling him something about an interview you did,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: some guest that was on your show. Somebody's emailing him
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: about it. Oh but if you type Howie car in
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: the search bar, one hit comes up in the Epstein files.
• 25:42
  Speaker 9: And you got five hits. Yeah, I think that makes
• 25:45
  Speaker 9: me a better person than you. I think this is
• 25:51
  Speaker 9: a reverse, reverse measure of one's morality and ethics.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Right. But again, it was nothing bad with me and
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: nothing bad with you. Harmless stuff. But a friend of
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: mine's a comedian. He was yelling. He goes, how could
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: you be in the Epstein for that's disgusting, And I said,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: take your name, and I hear the keyboard going. He went,
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: oh my god, he was in there. Epstein went to
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: some show where he was part of the show.
• 26:14
  Speaker 9: So wow, that's ah, that's something. It's a it's really
• 26:19
  Speaker 9: funny to watch these guys. Did you see morning Joe
• 26:22
  Speaker 9: I guess had Jamie Raskin on, and he asked him
• 26:25
  Speaker 9: the obvious question, which you know should have been asked
• 26:27
  Speaker 9: a million times earlier, which is, well, if these if
• 26:30
  Speaker 9: these files are so devastating to Trump, well why didn't
• 26:33
  Speaker 9: you guys do anything for four years when Biden was president?
• 26:38
  Speaker 9: And you know Raskin, who's you know, a fourked tongue, uh,
• 26:44
  Speaker 9: you know, snake in the grass. He could he was
• 26:47
  Speaker 9: him in an hall and he sounded like Joe Biden
• 26:49
  Speaker 9: trying to come up with an explanation, and of course
• 26:52
  Speaker 9: there isn't a reasonable explanation.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh, Now Hillary has to testify in a week
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: or so. What do you think she's going to do?
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Just him and on?
• 27:01
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I think she I think that's what she's I mean,
• 27:04
  Speaker 9: she's she really hasn't she really hasn't done very well
• 27:08
  Speaker 9: in that trip to Munich when she's laughing when she
• 27:10
  Speaker 9: was asked about the hot tub, and and then she
• 27:13
  Speaker 9: was saying that you know, Bill was doing Bill was
• 27:16
  Speaker 9: on the plane for charity's sake. I mean, even by
• 27:20
  Speaker 9: Hillary Clinton standards, that's kind of weak. And then he
• 27:23
  Speaker 9: said he was he was on the in the pursuit
• 27:28
  Speaker 9: and the only word I heard was pursued. He was
• 27:30
  Speaker 9: Bill Clinton was pursuing something on that plane, but I
• 27:34
  Speaker 9: don't think it was I don't think it was charite. Oh,
• 27:36
  Speaker 9: and she also said he saved millions of lives, not
• 27:39
  Speaker 9: not not hundreds or thousands, but millions of lives with
• 27:43
  Speaker 9: the Clinton Foundation. I guess a lot of people relied
• 27:45
  Speaker 9: on those private jets that they bought rent and bought
• 27:49
  Speaker 9: bought with the with the money they got for the
• 27:51
  Speaker 9: Clinton Foundation.
• 27:52
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: And I don't think you mentioned that Epstein was one
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: of the founders of the Clinton Foundation. It was his
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: money that helped put it together. And there was one
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: interview over the weekend. They asked her about Glene Maxwell.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: She said, I don't recall ever meeting her. Well, you
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: can see the pictures of her at Chelsea Clinton's wedding,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: sitting there.
• 28:09
  Speaker 9: Right and then I think she then I think she
• 28:10
  Speaker 9: backed off, you know, she you know, she she went
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: for the more plausible deniability, said I may have met
• 28:16
  Speaker 9: her a couple of times. Do you do you invite
• 28:18
  Speaker 9: people you've met twice to your to your only child's wedding?
• 28:22
  Speaker 9: I don't think so, but I don't know. If I
• 28:24
  Speaker 9: don't have twenty children, you in by somebody that you
• 28:28
  Speaker 9: only met twice, you know, to a wedding. It's I mean,
• 28:32
  Speaker 9: but they can't stop lying. What I wonder is if
• 28:35
  Speaker 9: she'll pull out the cackle or if people or you know,
• 28:39
  Speaker 9: someone will tell her under no circumstances do you laugh? Hillary,
• 28:43
  Speaker 9: and especially in that you know, at what point, at
• 28:47
  Speaker 9: this point, what difference does it make style cackling?
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Uh hey, speaking of the weekend AOC in Munich at
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: that conference, I mean done. But did you know she
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: was that dumb?
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: No?
• 29:01
  Speaker 13: You know?
• 29:02
  Speaker 9: I I said on my own show yesterday. I used
• 29:04
  Speaker 9: to teach at Boston University for about three years, and
• 29:08
  Speaker 9: I'm thinking of hiring one of those internet scrubbers. It's
• 29:12
  Speaker 9: just that goes through the internet and make sure all
• 29:14
  Speaker 9: references to me in Boston University are sponged from the
• 29:19
  Speaker 9: If anybody who ever walked down Commonwealth Avenue in Boston
• 29:23
  Speaker 9: should be doing the same thing, I mean, that is
• 29:26
  Speaker 9: so embarrassing, how dumb she is. But again, it's the
• 29:30
  Speaker 9: it's it's the old thing. You know that the Democrats
• 29:33
  Speaker 9: don't have to worry about ever being criticized or or
• 29:37
  Speaker 9: a fact checked, so that this is this is what
• 29:39
  Speaker 9: they do. They get into, they get into trouble like
• 29:42
  Speaker 9: this that you know, you know who's got to be
• 29:44
  Speaker 9: really depressed about this though? Her her performance is Chuck
• 29:47
  Speaker 9: Schumer because you know, he wants her to run for president,
• 29:51
  Speaker 9: not for the Senate. If she drops back. I mean,
• 29:53
  Speaker 9: she's a she's an automat, don't you think.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, no, I didn't think about that. Yeah, it
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: killed their presidential chances. But that you're now she's got
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: to go for Schumer's seed, which but you gotta give
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Schumer credit. He got new glasses. It's a whole new
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer with the big thick glasses.
• 30:08
  Speaker 9: Now, so how about how about the Hakim Jeffries. You're
• 30:14
  Speaker 9: the minority leader. He wants ran defying a Jewish member
• 30:17
  Speaker 9: of Congress to resign because he made that joke about
• 30:20
  Speaker 9: Muslims and dogs. I mean, is that a good look
• 30:23
  Speaker 9: for Hackem Jeffries to go out there? I mean with
• 30:25
  Speaker 9: the anti Semitic writings, that are in the background from
• 30:28
  Speaker 9: college days. But again it's like AOC. They don't they
• 30:32
  Speaker 9: don't care. They they don't think that they're ever going
• 30:35
  Speaker 9: to get called out on any of this stuff. You know,
• 30:38
  Speaker 9: in most cases they aren't.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: If Democrats were to take Congress, you'd have Hakeem Jeffries
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: and Schumer as the leaders. They're both in the same
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: little district in Brooklyn, very left wing little district in Brooklyn.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: Did that make any sense to have those two with
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the same point of view running Congress?
• 30:57
  Speaker 9: No, it doesn't. Hey, how about what's going to happen
• 31:00
  Speaker 9: with Mamdanni's poisoned pill for local I mean she could
• 31:04
  Speaker 9: either she could either. It's like it's like a firing
• 31:07
  Speaker 9: squad in Utah. They give you the choice, right, a
• 31:09
  Speaker 9: firing squad or the electric chair. What is she going
• 31:12
  Speaker 9: to do allow a millionaires tax to drive them out
• 31:16
  Speaker 9: or to or to allow the property taxes to go
• 31:19
  Speaker 9: up ten percent so they can cater more luxury food
• 31:24
  Speaker 9: to the homeless encampments.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Well, the good news is people that know these two
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: and private will tell you they're both cowards. They don't
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: have the guts to actually pull the trigger on anything. Ever,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: So mom, Donnie will never get his tax through. Hokle
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: will never get the tax through. They'll just coast along
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: and uh, just drive everybody crazy. But the good news
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: is real estate is up in New York. Apartments are
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: selling like crazy, Rentals are through the roof. So apparently
• 31:50

  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, our old studios were in Tribeca. Left Tribeca.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: We're now in midtown Manhattan, right here on fifty fifth

  Speaker 5: Well, I mean last time I was here, I was
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: able to participate a little bit.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: So yeah. And of course you want to plug anything mentioning,
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: that's part of the deal. Do you want to? I do.
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: Actually, I actually started writing a blog about a year
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: ago because I oh no, I was in radio for
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: twenty years and I worked at ESPN, So like you,
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: I met a lot of famous personages and I had
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: some interesting stories. So I sent it to seventy five
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: of my closest friends and I got good feedback. So
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: now I'm uploading those blogs onto substack.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: And where did people go?
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: They can go to substack. It's called Irvin's substack. IRV
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: I n aostrophe s Iervin substack. Unfortunately I found out
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: last night there are two Irvin's substack, IRV gold Farb.
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: You see my name, and you can read stories about
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: me chauffeing Bruce Springsteen around back when he was a
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: human being. I worked for Hardy Winstein one night. I
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: had a lot of interesting story.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and people like them not crazy about the name Irvin's.
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: Well, my name is Ervin, so I just put my
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: name in it, just popped up his Irvin's substack. So
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: I just kept like gold Farb stup stack.
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Gold Farb sounds like something like a like a German
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: candy boy or something.
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: I will go back and change it, and so I
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: won't confuse with the other Irvan. I'll make a gold
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: Farm substack.
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: Well, as long as it's doing well, that's important. Now,
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: where'd you drive Bruce Springsteen to.
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: A record store in Rochester? I met him at the pool.
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: He asked if there was a record store around. I
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: knew there was a record store. He said, thank you.
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: I said, you want to ride, Bruce? He said, yeah, Man,
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: I'll take a ride, put him in the car, draw
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: him to the record store. People recognized him after a while,
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: chased us down the escalator and we sat in the
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: car and talked for a while after. It was an
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: unforgetable as right.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: Well, you can read these stories.
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: On Irvin's substack.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Ervin's substack. And what did you do with the ESPN?
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: I was mostly I did stats, baseball stats, hockey stats.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: I put the graphics up on the scene on the screen.
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: So oh, very good numbers excellent. So and paid a
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: lot of money to be our auction winner. Money goes
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: to charity to feed the hungry. And again, first time
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: anybody's ever done this twice. So should I do it
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: again next year? Should I back off?
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if you want, as long as you keep winning.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: We have a high roller audience and they do spend
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: a lot of money on charity.
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: I would have thought that with a lot of people
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: would be into this.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So anyway, ev will be with us throughout the hour.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: We'll get back to IRV and so jump in if
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: you want. Hey, Rosie O'donnald snuck back into the country.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: You remember, she's leaving. She's leaving the country, never going
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: to set foot in America while Trump is president. She
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: did sneak back apparently about two weeks ago, said she
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: wanted to see her family. She missed her family. You
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: ever see her family. I don't think anybody want to
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: see them again. But she did come back, and she
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: also said being insane, she said she wanted to make
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: sure it was safe. She wanted to make sure she
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: could get in and out of America. Now. I don't
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: know what she's picturing, getting kidnapped, getting arrested Ice agents.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know what she's pretty imagining. But she came
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: and went. Everything was fine, she saw our kids. Nobody cared.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: If you look at her nowadays, nobody would recognize her.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: You wouldn't know it was Rosie O'Donnell. She looks absolutely
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: she looks like Jim Acosta. Now she looks totally different.
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: She does have Irish citizenship. And you got to remember
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: she started the feud, this blood feud with Trump back
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: when she was on the View. She started talking about
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: him one day and you remember she somehow took her
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: hair and put it in the shape of Trump's hair,
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: and she really got ugly, personal ugly, imitating him, and
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: then he went after and she got worse. You know,
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: these are like two insult kings going after each other,
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: so it really got ugly, and she did sneak back
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: into the country. Now, also Allen who left the country,
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: I just bought another twenty five million dollar mansion in
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: Santa Barbara, indicating she's going to want to come back
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: a lot more so. Apparently when you leave America, you really,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: really really don't enjoy it. Other celebrity news, Spike Lee
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: a lot of people upset with him. He showed up
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: at the NBA All Star Game, the first Israeli born
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: player competing in the NBA All Star Game. Spike Lee
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: shows up wearing a Palestinian outfit, a Palestinian flag, a
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: Palestinian this, a Palestinian that. It's stupid, it's disgusting, it's
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: anti Semitic in that situation, but it's Spike Lee. Would
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: you've expected any different from Spike Lee. It's just it's
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: the problem that Democrats have. You know, when Jesse Jackson,
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: first he had Martin Luther King, big civil rights leader,
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: big left wing guy. Great job. Then you had Jesse Jackson,
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: not Martin Luther King, but it wasn't so bad. And
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: then somewhere along the way, the Nation of Islam Fharakhn
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: jumps into the civil rights movement, bringing with him anti Semitism.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: It then starts to creep into the Democratic Party. Maybe
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Has it been there all along, maybe,
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: but it brought it out. There's an anti Semitic problem
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: that Democrats are going to have to deal with. It's
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna just haunt them forever if they don't
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: get rid of it. It's gotten worse. But then everything
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: in the democratic world has gotten worse. They've just gotten
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: totally insane, absolutely crazy, just over the top nuts in
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: the last few years. So, hey, have you seen the
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: JFK Junior mini series?
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: I saw the promos for it, I haven't seen the series.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: Apparently this is the hottest series in the world. JFK Junior.
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: It's mostly about his meeting Carolyn Bissett. You know, he
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: was like the ultimate playboy of Manhattan women, all of them,
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: but then he met this one woman. And this is like,
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: for a lot of women, the fairy tale love story
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: that the ultimate bachelor can fall in love and want
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: to settle down and want to get married, and it's
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: all about their relationship and this and that how they
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: got married. This incredible love story. Now JFK. Junior was
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: a very good friend of mine. We used to go
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: out a lot, and he was quite the unbelievable bachelor,
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: and he did meet Carolyn Bassett and settled down. I
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: didn't see him as much after that, but then I
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: started to see him again a lot, and he was
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: going out. So I don't know what they show in
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: this mini series, but after a while with this marriage,
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: he was out again roaming around. So it wasn't quite
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: the fairy tale you imagine. Now, Apparently in the in
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: the series, he meets her and he takes her on
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: the first date to a certain restaurant in the village
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: East village. I don't have the name of it. It's
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: an Indian restaurant, and they I guess they actually went
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: to the real place and filmed it there and you
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: see them going the first date to this Indian restaurant
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: in the village. Well, apparently because of that, this restaurant
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: is now the hardest reservation in the world to get.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: People are lined up for miles. They all want to
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: get into this restaurant. Now, again, I knew the guy
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: pretty well and he was a great guy, but nobody
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: had worse taste in food than him. He didn't know
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: anything about The only person that had worst tasting food
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: probably his mother. They the fact when his mother had
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: a big dinner party, everybody knew to eat first, because
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: you it's like that old waspy society food where that's
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: nothing has any flavor. But so I wouldn't go by
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: him on what restaurants to go do. But it doesn't matter.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: The place is packed all the time. I've noticed a
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: lot of this. This is the new thing with making
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: the movies about people, Like with JFK. Junior. You make
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: it into much more of a perfect marriage than it
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: actually was. Or have you seen the movie Marty Supreme
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: just saw it a few weeks ago. Yes, it's unbelievable,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: action packed, it's amazing. Now I knew the real guy.
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: His name was Marty Reesman, and he was a nice guy,
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: but he was maybe the most boring human being you
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: could ever be around. He was and he was a
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: ping pong player champion. And if you see the movie,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: all the ping pong stuff is true, but all the
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: other stuff is just made up. The gangsters, the gun chasers,
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: the car chases, gunfire, the movie star, all of that
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: was made up. Total fiction. So that's the new style
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: of biography. Start with the real story and then just
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: make up all kinds of nonsense. Hey, there's a nail salon.
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: I don't want to mention the name, but it's really nice.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: It's beautiful, it's excellent. Everybody tells me it's the finest
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: nail salon in the city. So I'm looking. I don't know.
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: I just looked it up on Yelp. It got the
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: worst review I've ever It's got horrible reviews. What it's magnificent?
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: How could I get such bad reviews. I'm reading the
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: Yelp reviews. This woman says it's I will never set
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: foot in there again. They had Fox News playing on
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: the TV. There's another one. You've got the boycott. I
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: won't mention the name, boycott it. They have Fox News
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: on the TV there. This is unbelievable. This is how
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: just modern day democrats the most intolerant people in the world.
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: I've had a lot of restaurant managers tell me that,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: you know restaurant that has TVs around the bar or
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: all of it, but that if Fox News is on,
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: people will start yelling and screaming, demanding they changed the
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: channel or demanding they changed their table so they don't
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: have to look at Fox News again, counting the left
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: wing to be totally intolerant all the time. Hey, HERV,
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: where do you live in Jersey? Union City? So when
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: you came into the city, what was your impression as
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: far as garbage snow?
• 44:35
  Speaker 5: Well, I was kind of brought up in New York,
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: so that doesn't surprise me. What did stand out this time?
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: I am seeing more masks again. I'm seeing more, I say,
• 44:44
  Speaker 5: a little bit in Jersey, but I'm seeing them here.
• 44:46
  Speaker 5: The more I come into the city. I'm not sure
• 44:48
  Speaker 5: what that's all about.
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, well, it's good. It's the left wing identifying themselves
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: with the men. Although it was pretty cold the last
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: few weeks. I saw a lot of people wearing masks
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: during the cold snap. But it was great. The snow melted,
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: it's almost all gone. The garbage got picked up, although
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: today walking around I know it's the garbage's back. Enormous
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: piles of garbage on every street. So that's Mom, Donnie.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: Not good with the not good with anything right now,
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: a management disaster. And by the way, the emergency response
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: director who's been there for years just left. He quit now.
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: The good news is he kept recommending his number two,
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: the deputy director, and said she'd be perfect. She's been
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: there almost thirty years. She knows what she's doing. The
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: good news is Mom, Donnie just appointed her, made her
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: the director. A lot of people thought he'd bring in
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: some left wing crazy kook, but he did appoint her.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: So that's pretty good news. Hey, we'll take a break.

• 48:37
  Speaker 5: Substack, go to my substack, Irvin's substack on substack, if
• 48:41

  Speaker 1: It, Irvin's substack should be easy to find. All right,
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: Let's take some calls. Let's go to Mike and Florida. Mike,
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: how you doing, Good morning, Mark as Mike, and.
• 48:53
  Speaker 12: A big shout out to irv uh.
• 48:55
  Speaker 7: You know, one thing these lipples keep.
• 48:57
  Speaker 14: Proving is they all have glass jaws, whether it's Colbert Rose,
• 49:00
  Speaker 14: o'donald Hakeem Jeffries, who, by the way, his uncle Leondard
• 49:03
  Speaker 14: Jefferies was the biggest anti semi jew hater on the face.
• 49:07
  Speaker 7: Of the earth at one point.
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: Wow, he's got competition.
• 49:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, true, now he does. But back in the day
• 49:14
  Speaker 7: he was like the leader of this stuff.
• 49:16
  Speaker 9: But they none of them could take a punch.
• 49:18
  Speaker 14: And not that the Republicans punch back that often, but
• 49:20
  Speaker 14: when they do, they go cry into you know, themselves,
• 49:23
  Speaker 14: and that their award show. They go out and they
• 49:26
  Speaker 14: you know, they cry to the public and it's amazing
• 49:28
  Speaker 14: that none of them can take a punch.
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: Well, the reason for that is because the media just
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: caters fake news New York Times watch. All they do
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: is just cater to them. So if you're a Republican,
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: if you're a Trump you're used to getting attack left
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: and right all day and night. They're not used to it.
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: They live in this bubble. They never turn on anything
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: except mainstream media. But thanks for calling, Mike. Let's go
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: to Joe and Elmwood Park. Joe, how you doing?
• 49:52
  Speaker 12: Good morning, Mark, how you doing?
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: Kudos to Vincent?
• 49:56
  Speaker 12: I heard your guests lived in New Jersey.
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: Could I ask go ahead how he.
• 50:01
  Speaker 12: Likes his utility bill.
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: I am not crazy about my utility bill, thinking of a
• 50:06
  Speaker 5: lot of Jersey just because of that. It's it's the
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: jump was incredible the last couple of years. My jaw
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: is open. I couldn't believe it.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: So what's the deal your electric bill?
• 50:14
  Speaker 5: And that was PSG and it jumped from like on
• 50:18
  Speaker 5: the bad months, it jumped from like six hundred to
• 50:20
  Speaker 5: like eleven hundred out of nowhere dos one month. I
• 50:23
  Speaker 5: was right, it was it was crazy for electricity. Well
• 50:27
  Speaker 5: it's gas electricity.
• 50:29
  Speaker 12: You thank Phil Murphy.
• 50:30
  Speaker 5: And then she's gonna she was supposed to put a
• 50:33
  Speaker 5: cap on it, and it went up thirty dollars more
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: a month.
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: Well, you can also thank Andrew Cuomo for closing Indian
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: Point that was twenty five percent of our energy and
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: then killing natural gas, which would have brought everybody's bill down.
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: So where are you gonna? Where are you gonna move
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: if you want to get away from that, I.
• 50:48
  Speaker 15: Have no choice.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: I'm stuck here.
• 50:50
  Speaker 5: I've been told Pennsylvania, I've just batched the advice. I
• 50:53
  Speaker 5: got low taxes, cheaper houses, and nice areas, all right,
• 50:58
  Speaker 5: thinking about it, But you.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Know, you know, you got all the trouble to move.
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: And then you know, like Florida, who knows one day
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: they could get a democratic governor and it goes crazy.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Bill and Lafayette. Bill, how you doing okay?
• 51:13
  Speaker 12: Mark?
• 51:14
  Speaker 11: There's an author out of and he's a retired professor,
• 51:18
  Speaker 11: George Skia Lava out of Harvard.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: And he already I can't stand the professor Harvard.
• 51:25
  Speaker 11: Oh my god, he is a crazy guy. He runs
• 51:29
  Speaker 11: a common wheel spellbound article and he uses Catholicism as
• 51:35
  Speaker 11: a springboard into telling everybody how evil and disgusting President
• 51:42
  Speaker 11: Trump is. And I'm wondering about these people from Harvard
• 51:45
  Speaker 11: between the ages of seventy and eighty. I wonder if
• 51:49
  Speaker 11: they were all followers of Timothy Leary and just got
• 51:52
  Speaker 11: some hit cells on some bad acid trips.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: Well, you remember, in the late sixties early seventies, all
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: the left wing radicals on campus, the hippies, the left wing.
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: They grew up and they became the professors. They're the professors,
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: and then they've raised and indoctrinated generations of crazies. Hey,
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: by the way, you know he's talking about the Epstein files.
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: How you can search When you go to the Epstein
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: file site, you can just type in the search bar.
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: Nothing comes up more than Harvard. There is no no
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: person place that gets more hits than Harvard. Epstein was
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: an enormous part of Harvard, from the president to the professors.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Nobody was more involved with Epstein than Harvard. So, uh,
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: just remember that. Let's go to Johnny and Staten Island. Johnny,
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: how you doing, Hey, Mark.
• 52:39
  Speaker 7: A long time those spook Listen? New taxes do want
• 52:43
  Speaker 7: to add on to the city. Yeah, he get it
• 52:46
  Speaker 7: said from the rich or to corporations. That's no good. Uh,
• 52:50
  Speaker 7: they want to put charge poppy taxes.
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: Worse than me. I got allergies too, I could keep coughing.
• 52:56
  Speaker 7: And yeah, but why do we start with the The
• 53:00
  Speaker 7: MTA spent two billion dollars on the metro call to
• 53:04
  Speaker 7: get rid of it. How about we stopped all the projects,
• 53:07
  Speaker 7: we got the buzzes and trained we got enough employees.
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: And MTA is a disaster. But that's that's local. That's
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: not MTA is not Mom Donnie, that's HOCl. She controls
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: the MTA.
• 53:19
  Speaker 12: No.
• 53:19
  Speaker 7: But the thing is, you know she can take the
• 53:22
  Speaker 7: money and give it to Mom Donnie and then you
• 53:25
  Speaker 7: go and get rid of wold management and MTA.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: Well, she did actually give Mom Donnie one point five
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: billion to just tie him over for a few weeks.
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: But the MTA budget could easily be cut in half.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: It's all waste, you know. They spend like I forget
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: what the number is. It's like five hundred million attract
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: mile to build subways. The actual cost should be like
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: two million. You know, it's to pave a mile a highway.
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: It's forty thousand dollars. We spend a million and a
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: half a mile to pave highway. It's just all waste
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: and fraud. You could easily easily clean that up. Well, Hey,
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: coming up next, talk to irv's favorite and cold Hey

  Speaker 1: By the Somali No, it's a real one. But he
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: has a substack too, right.
• 55:08
  Speaker 5: I just I started uploading my blog onto substack a
• 55:10
  Speaker 5: few months ago. Based on your success, I decided to
• 55:13
  Speaker 5: do the same thing.
• 55:14
  Speaker 10: Oh excellent, doesn't substack fun, No no ads, no censorship.
• 55:19
  Speaker 5: I really like plus people try to help each other,
• 55:21

• 55:22
  Speaker 5: send me your substack and I'll send you mind people
• 55:24
  Speaker 5: kind of it's like a community.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: I like it. Oh, I don't like that part.
• 55:31
  Speaker 5: It gets readers. And I had a question for you
• 55:34
  Speaker 5: if it's okay. I don't want to take too much.
• 55:36
  Speaker 5: Can But I'm thinking about this. You do say surprising
• 55:39
  Speaker 5: stuff once in a while that that makes the left
• 55:42
  Speaker 5: very angry. It makes me think, and a lot of
• 55:44
  Speaker 5: times when I think about it, I'm like, you know
• 55:46
  Speaker 5: what she was right about that you inferred you I
• 55:50
  Speaker 5: think a lot about it. You inferred I think on
• 55:52
  Speaker 5: the show a few years ago that Joseph McCarthy was
• 55:55
  Speaker 5: misunderstood and gets a bad rap. And I'm having a
• 55:58
  Speaker 5: little trouble rap in my mind around that. Can you
• 56:01
  Speaker 5: explain that a little bit?
• 56:03
  Speaker 10: Yes, I am so glad you asked. More than that.
• 56:08
  Speaker 10: It is laid out in in I would say, verb
• 56:11
  Speaker 10: and detail an exciting story in my book Treason. Uh,
• 56:17
  Speaker 10: it's a good couple of chapters that. The argument of
• 56:19
  Speaker 10: my book Treason is that liberals have consistently rooted for
• 56:23
  Speaker 10: our country's enemies basically since the mcarthy era. And I
• 56:29
  Speaker 10: had just you know, my first book was High Crimes
• 56:32
  Speaker 10: and misdemeanor spout pointon and that was the first time
• 56:35
  Speaker 10: I really I mean I was a practicing lawyer before that.
• 56:37
  Speaker 10: That was the first time I really noticed just the
• 56:41
  Speaker 10: the the mountains of lies that were deployed to defend
• 56:47
  Speaker 10: Bill Clinton, to malign anyone who was opposed to him,
• 56:51
  Speaker 10: from Lucy Angoldberg to Ken Starr and and reading the
• 56:57
  Speaker 10: true history, which is very hard to get on Joe
• 56:59
  Speaker 10: McCarthy of Joe McCarthy, I realized, Oh my gosh, it's
• 57:04
  Speaker 10: the same thing, except we didn't have the Internet. It's
• 57:08
  Speaker 10: it's Clinton was like the comical mirror image of what
• 57:13
  Speaker 10: they did to McCarthy he had. I'll say briefly, but
• 57:17
  Speaker 10: I do recommend that you read the book, for you'll
• 57:20
  Speaker 10: be amazed at the facts of the case. One thing
• 57:23
  Speaker 10: you will notice, I'll say this quickly, is that all
• 57:26
  Speaker 10: of the attacks on McCarthy, they're always as they were
• 57:30
  Speaker 10: on people like like Ken Starr and Lucy Aanner. And
• 57:32
  Speaker 10: I suppose me there are all these generalities. He was
• 57:35
  Speaker 10: a liar. He was a big fat liar. He destroyed reputations.
• 57:40
  Speaker 10: But my book has the facts, and you'll notice their
• 57:45
  Speaker 10: side does tend to not rely heavily on facts or
• 57:50
  Speaker 10: to repeat the the myths that they have created about him.
• 57:55
  Speaker 10: One of my friends is living in Japan at the
• 57:58
  Speaker 10: time a lot of the public they published my book Trees,
• 58:01
  Speaker 10: and he said the publisher came to him and when
• 58:04
  Speaker 10: he read the book, he said, this book says the
• 58:05
  Speaker 10: opposite of everything I've ever heard about Joe McCarthy, every
• 58:09
  Speaker 10: book we've ever published about that period of history. But
• 58:13
  Speaker 10: I believe hers because she has facts.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: Now, Joe McCarthy with the communist stuff, I assumed communists
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: to be talking about Russians. Who was looking for Russian
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: influence in American government? Is that what it is?
• 58:22
  Speaker 10: Well, specifically, that was the only thing he was interested
• 58:26
  Speaker 10: in in our state, our state department. I go through
• 58:29
  Speaker 10: what the equivalent would have been at the beginning of
• 58:31
  Speaker 10: the War on Terror in the Bush administration of all
• 58:35
  Speaker 10: of these active, active agents with the Communist Party just
• 58:39
  Speaker 10: riddled throughout our government. He was not going around attacking
• 58:44
  Speaker 10: journalists or actors, not that I mean Ronald Reagan took
• 58:49
  Speaker 10: on the Communists in in in Hollywood. It was a
• 58:53
  Speaker 10: big problem that they were influencing movies in popular culture,
• 58:57
  Speaker 10: but that wasn't that wasn't McCarthy's thing his. We have
• 59:01
  Speaker 10: and FDR knew it. We have known members of the
• 59:07
  Speaker 10: Communist Party working in our government and undermining having enormous
• 59:13
  Speaker 10: influence on our foreign policy. Now, what was crucial about
• 59:16
  Speaker 10: when I published Treason is the Venona Papers had had
• 59:20
  Speaker 10: been released thanks to the work of Daniel Patrick moynihan.
• 59:26
  Speaker 10: This whole time during the fifties. We couldn't release it
• 59:29
  Speaker 10: because we didn't want them to know, so the public
• 59:31
  Speaker 10: never knew. We had figured out how to read Soviet cable.
• 59:37
  Speaker 10: Some small outfit within I think it was within the military,
• 59:43
  Speaker 10: and they yeah, and it was called the Venona Project,
• 59:45
  Speaker 10: but I think it was within the military. They were
• 59:47
  Speaker 10: reading all of these Soviet transcripts. Only a small percentage
• 59:52
  Speaker 10: of them, like ten percent have been decrypted at this point,
• 59:56
  Speaker 10: and basically everything everything we Carthy was saying it was
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 10: it was so much worse. We know, for example, that
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 10: the Rosenbergs that were communists. His his code name was Liberal.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: But but the myth was created that it was just
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: some poor guy who as a college kid, went to
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: one meeting and he didn't know what it was, and
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: now his whole life is ruined, right, right, and.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 10: That was certainly not the case. No, And you could
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 10: see it in their policy making decisions. I mean the
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 10: biggest one was, oh, I can't even think of the
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 10: one that that elder Hiss, Elder Hiss. He was the
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 10: most damaging to our foreign policy. Sat at Roosevelt's right hand,
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 10: and he was I mean they were all, you know,
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 10: these very elite Harvard educated three name wasps and oh, well,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 10: you know, some of our children will grow up and
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 10: be musicians, some will be Communists. But it was just
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 10: it was just sort of accepted by our elite.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: So we had this problem with the alger Hisses around.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: But didn't McCarthy once the camera showed up go a
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: little crazy and go too far, too many people, too
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: much grand standing.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 10: No, actually that that is well for one thing. I mean,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 10: look at Trump. Sometimes you do need to be He
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 10: was very McCarthy was funny, he was boisterous, He was charismatic.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 10: He had that Irish charm.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: Charismatic McCarthy.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 10: Yes, he got Oh he got America's attention. I'll mention,
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 10: by the way, you know the beause they try to
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 10: bury this. But the Kennedy family loved McCarthy wanted McCarthy
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 10: to marry the father Joseph McCarthy wanted his daughter to
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 10: marry Joe McCarthy. Bob Robert Kennedy worked for McCarthy. He
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 10: only aside because Roy Cone was was was very, very
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 10: very smart. McCarthy knew it, so Macarthy so wrote, kne
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 10: was definitely the top of the heap on that committee.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 10: But you know, when I interviewed Robert Kennedy Junior on
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 10: my sub stack, I started off, I was kind of
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 10: joking about it. I said, because you know, he's always
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 10: talking about I don't know measle, vaccines, all this other stuff.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 10: And I said, you know, I was thinking he was
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 10: doing this entire subsect just asking you about Joe McCarthy.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 10: And he must have been I had just mentioned to
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 10: a joke. But the first like twenty minutes, well ten minutes,
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 10: let's say, is him talking about McCarthy coming and hanging
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 10: out with the family. Wow, they were so close.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: Interesting. So is this still up on substack?
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 10: Yes it is.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: And what's the book you wrote that deals with McCarthy treason? Treason?
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 10: Well, now it's all footnoted. And by the way, that
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 10: was my third book written. I think around two thousand three,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 10: two thousand and four. Now, I love all of my books,
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 10: but this this was all sprung on me, So I'm
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 10: doing it for memory here. I'm not sure if I
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 10: was as smooth and describing it as I hope I
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 10: was when I was promoting the book.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: Well, I have the book, and now I got to
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: go back and read the McCarthy stuff. Sounds fascinating. So hey,

• 1:03:34
  Speaker 10: that last put that in last week's column. I wrote
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 10: about other things, but I had a few points I
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 10: was going to make about the files, and one was
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 10: I was just randomly searching names to see how many
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 10: names came up more often than Trump's. Though, you know
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 10: you need an asterisk with that. As you know the
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 10: mentions of Trump that the media is going so crazy over.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 10: It's all the mentions are Jeff Epstein announcing Trump. Yeah,
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 10: something like Trump emailing with him. We're saying, hey, when
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 10: gonna come to the end, can we see the girls again?
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 10: It's nothing from Trump. It's that this pedophile hated him.
• 1:04:12
