Hour 3: Carnegie Deli reopens · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: So, Larry, we're at that point. Remember, we said, OK,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: full speed ahead right after Labor Day for all these
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: contested House elections and U.S. Senate elections. And depending on
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the polls you're looking at, they're close. Could go either way.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: And a lot of times it's going to depend on
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: what the not the hardcore apparatchik and supporter of Republicans
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: or Democrats do. They're going to remain loyal to their party.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: But the people who can be influenced and the independents.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: So every day, if you have to pass a gas
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: station and you look at the price of gas, or
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: if you're a trucker, especially an independent trucker, and you're
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: paying for your own diesel, you see everything going up.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: The groceries go up. The utilities go up. Housing, child care,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: health care. But the biggies are the gasoline price. the diesel,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: and that immediately impacts groceries and products. So there's a
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: lot of misunderstanding out there because we are so flush
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: with petroleum here in the United States. We now export.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: We're an exporting country. So Americans scratched their head and said,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I don't understand. We've got more natural gas. We have
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: more gasoline. We have more home heating fuel oil. We
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: have more diesel. We're really doing well.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: And we are.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: The problem is it's a global economy. So the prices
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: are set globally. And a lot of times you have
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: oil tankers that go back and forth. Some are just crude.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: So it needs to be refined. And some of it,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: it's already been refined for the purpose expected. Gasoline, home heating,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: fuel oil, diesel. We only have in the United States,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: we had this conversation before, 130 refineries. That's it. And
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: the last big one was built in 1976 in Louisiana
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: because we treated refineries like we treated nuclear reactors for
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: a long time. Don't build any. You know, nobody wants
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: it in their backyard. Nobody wants a refinery in their backyard.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, just look, you go down. The New Jersey Turnpike,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: and you're near Amboy, South Amboy, and you see the
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: refineries there, the old Hess refineries. So, God, I don't
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: want that in my backyard. We need them. Red China
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: is an example. They consume more oil than anyone else.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: They have the second most refineries, but now because they
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: don't have their own natural resources, Any oil that goes
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: to them for their refineries, they ain't shipping it back out.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: They used to ship it back out. They would refine
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: it and then ship it back out and get a
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: nice price. Now they're keeping it all to themselves. Tough Nuggets,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: same India. They have the biggest refinery in the world.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Whatever crude oil they get, sorry, we need it for
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: our own consumption. So there's less and less on the market.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: The big exporter of crude oil is Saudi Arabia. And
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: now they're sort of like they're being pinched by the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: supporters of Iran in terms of bombing their refineries and
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: bombing their pipelines. So we're going to see, unfortunately, prices
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: go up no matter how much oil we have here
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: in the United States. And I know it's very difficult.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: It is for me at times to accept that is
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: how can a country so flush oil? with all these resources,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: have to be held prisoner by what's happening globally. But
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: that's how the marketplace is set. So now as Republicans
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: and Democrats battle one another, if you look at most
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: of the polls, Larry, the issues are affordability, cost of living,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: obviously war in Iran, immigration, some of the other issues,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: but Every day, people are reminded because it's not like
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the old times. When you were growing up, you'd pass
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: a gas station. They didn't really have prices up there.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: You'd have to see them at the pump. Now, you
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: could see them like a half a mile away. You know,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: neon signs, boom, boom, boom. You're reminded constantly. Boy, this
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: is going to make it a real horse race for
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: the Republicans who have to go out there, battle for
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: their own seats or if they're running for new seats
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: and likewise for the Democrats, because this is the main
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: issue they're probably going to be addressing out on the
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: campaign trail.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, affordability, but this affects everything, especially the diesel
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: prices affects every single product because every one of those
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: products has to be delivered by a truck. And so
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: the prices are going to go up. And I'm shocked.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I truly am shocked. And Donald Trump was very well
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: aware of the midterms all along. He keeps talking about them.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, he's been saying the last
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: couple of days that Iran knows when our midterms are
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: and they're not going to make a deal until after that.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: They're going to hold out even though they're being crushed
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: economically right now and people are suffering in Iran. He
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: said they're going to hold out for another 60 days.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: until the midterms come around, and then they're going to
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: do something. He also said that 40 ships now are
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: getting through the Strait of Hormuz. And that's great compared
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: to what it was a couple weeks ago. But remember,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: 140 ships used to get through. So it's a fraction
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: of the ships that are getting through. The oil in Venezuela,
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: he made a big deal about that. Much of that's
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: not ready to go. It's not going to be ready
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: to go for a long time. And then he had
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: that meeting with the oil companies. And I'm sure there's
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: no readout of that meeting still. I'm sure he was
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: pressuring them. I'm sure he was pressuring them. you got
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: to do me a favor. You got to bring down
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: these prices. You got to figure out a way to
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: bring down these prices. They keep going up ever since
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: that meeting. So I don't know. And you listen to
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: him and he keeps talking about the midterms and they're
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: going to come down after the midterms. That's not going
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: to be good enough. And he's got to come up
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: with something to do to bring those gas prices down.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: Or I have a feeling the Republicans may lose the House.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: I think That's a probability at this point. It used
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: to be that it didn't look like they were going
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: to lose the Senate. If he doesn't get those gas
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: prices down, they could lose the Senate.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, we are an economy that's based on oil.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Oil powers our economy, without which... It would have devastating results.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: We're not into the future yet. We don't have other
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: mechanisms that can replace that. Maybe in the future it'll happen.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: It's not happening right now. So when the president said, hey, Zelensky,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: you got to stop bombing the Russian refineries because they
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: produce diesel. He's right. But there's a whole bunch of
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: other countries that produce diesel, including the United States. The
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: bigger problems, let's separate the politics, because my dad was
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: a merchant seaman for 50 years and oftentimes had to
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: transport crude. and also refined gasoline, jet fuel. You know,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: he would tell me the differences. Actually brought me to
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: a refinery, which is a fascinating place to look at,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: because you know how you have all these pipes and
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: you have flames that are shooting up, you know, burning
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: the methane. It's like a place you wouldn't want to go.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: It's like the Wizard of Oz. I was fascinated. He
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: showed me how they separate the components, how they convert it,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: how they treat it. It's a very, very complicated process.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: We do it the best in the world, but we
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: haven't invested in new refineries. It takes five years to
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: build a new refinery, no matter where you are in
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: the world. It's like a desalinization plant. It's like a
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: nuclear power plant. These things don't just go up like
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: a pop-up. So I would say, in addition... to everything
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: that needs to be done to drive the prices down
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: to make it more affordable for people and especially businesses
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: and independent contractors is that we have to start building refineries.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: because we can't be dependent on what's going on in
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: the world. Look at Saudi Arabia, they're pinched in. The
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Red Chinese are saying, we got the second most refineries,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: but guess what? We're keeping it all for ourselves. And India,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: which has the biggest refinery in the world, they say, sorry,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: we're not shipping it out. So a lot of these
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: other countries, they don't really have refineries. So if you
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: ship them the raw crude, they can't do anything with it.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Like you said, right now, Venezuela can ship a lot
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: of raw crude. They can pump it out of the ground.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: But their refineries are in disrepair. It's going to take
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: a while for them to get upgraded. I think that's
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: why the gas executives, the oil executives were meeting privately
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: with the president where they were telling him that. Yeah,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: you're swimming in oil, but it's got to be refined.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: If you don't refine it, it can't go to the pump.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: It can't be used, which they would be absolutely correct.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: So you got to make big investments in that. It
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: is fascinating to me, that meeting you just talked about.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: It is fascinating to me.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: I'm checking every few days to get a readout on
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: that because that is normal procedure. It's standard operating procedure.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: You have a meeting that the president's involved in. The
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: press gets a readout. I haven't seen a readout yet.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: So I got a feeling that was a pretty darn
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: tense meeting. Just redact some stuff. I want to hear
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: what was talked about. Nobody knows at this point exactly
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: what was talked about. The executives didn't talk either afterwards.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: But remember the other thing that all the electeds said.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Remember Shapiro floated, well, maybe we'll have a statewide gas
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: tax holiday. Remember he started that in Pennsylvania. And then
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: the Fed said, well, maybe we'll have a federal gas
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: tax holiday because they all get a percentage at the pump.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Nothing has come about because they're dependent on that revenue. Well,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: not only that.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: No Democratic governor right now before the midterms is going
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: to lower the gas prices because they know that's a
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: winner for them and their party. No Democratic governor. I'm
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: surprised some Republican governors don't. But in those states, it's
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: not as oppressive. They don't tax as much. I was
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: recently in Indiana and North Carolina. I was shocked at
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: the gas prices. They were 60 cents lower than they
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: are here in New Jersey and New York and Connecticut,
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: where they're hogs. The taxes are oppressive in these states.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: So let's look in our region, 435, 450 at the
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: pump for regular now, for regular gasoline. and diesel 625.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Now that's the critical one, diesel, because that's used in
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: the ships themselves. That's used in railroad engines to transport products,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: obviously tractor trailers, big trucks. You have to have that.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: And if the diesel keeps going up, whoever is involved
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: in that business has to pass along the price of
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: the increases to the consumer. And that's when all of
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: a sudden you're walking down your local supermarket aisle and
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: you said, It's not because they want to raise the price.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: They understand. But they have no choice.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. When we come back, the Carnegie Deli reopens.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Man, what are those prices going to be like with
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: all that meat? Plus, a chance to see Richard Marks next. Well,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: the long national nightmare is over. The long wait is over.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: The Carnegie Deli is coming back with their mile-high sandwiches.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: They are going to open just a few steps from
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: their original location, the Carnegie Deli. I'll tell you a
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: quick story, Curtis. When I first came to New York,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: when I was working at WABC as the weekend anchor,
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: there was two guys they called Lenny and Squiggy. I
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: can't remember their real names, so I apologize if you're listening.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: But they said to me, two Jewish guys, and they said,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: we've got to take you to the Carnegie Deli. Because
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: they wanted lunch all the time, by the way. And
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: so we go to the Carnegie Deli, and they make
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: their orders, and then it's my turn to order. And
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: I said, I'll have roast beef, tomato, and mayonnaise on
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: white bread.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Mayonnaise.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: That's what they said.
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: What?
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: That's exactly what they said.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Somebody ordered mayo at the Carnegie Deli? That was Larry.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: That was me.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: And they looked at me and they said, that was
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: the most gooey order I have ever heard in my life.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: And I didn't know what the word gooey meant.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Well, I tell you, I welcome this back because originally
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: when Natalie had said, oh, it looks like they're going
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: to open. I said, yeah, but let's wait to see
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: if it's the real deal. Mortar and brick, because sometimes
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: you do these pop up things and then they disappear.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: It's the real deal. It's mortar and brick. It's open today.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: And I can't wait to return because that was the site.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Of my world sour garlic pickle eating championships. Four times
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I won it. They stack them over every two years.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: And it was outside of the Carnegie Deli. I went
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: for a fifth title and the pickles wouldn't go down
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: the hatch. I knew it was over. But when I
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: won my fourth belt, you know, my green colored belt
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: of pickle eating supremacy, don't light a match around me
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: with a sour garlic pickle. You know, I walk inside,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: you know, salutations and greetings from the crowd. Who's there?
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: The former Dodger manager, Tommy Lasorda, with a whole crew
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: of his family from Pennsylvania. Yeah, Curtis, we like your style.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: We like your form. It's Tommy Lasorda, right? It doesn't
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: get any better than that.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Well, they got to bring it back. They got to
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: bring it back. As a matter of fact, you know,
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: if anybody's listening, they got to bring this back. And
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: so Curtis can now Start a new winning streak. But
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, Curtis, you should do one of
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: your famous Instagram videos on this.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: On them bringing it back.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Yes. We will definitely do that. It's nostalgic. Although I
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: must tell you, right now, if I competed, I'd have
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: to drop out at the beginning. It won't go down
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: the hatch anymore.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sorry.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: Won't go down the hatch.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: You can be.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: The honorary, like the Hall of Famer that comes back
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: to encourage everybody else.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the referee because I know how to cheat.
• 13:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: I know all the ways you can cheat in a,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: any kind of a eating contest involving culinary delights.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Let's get some talk backs. We've got some people patiently
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: waiting by.
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: I live in Washington, New Jersey, and this poor kid
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: didn't have a chance. And these politicians don't care. They
• 14:21
  Speaker 6: don't care. It's all about furthering political careers and pushing
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: an agenda at all costs, even the costs of everyone's children.
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: They don't care whose lives it touches, as long as
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: it's not theirs. Selfish and disgusting.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Very well said.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: Selfish and disgusting is the word. Just in case you
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: weren't listening earlier, there's a story that nobody is covering
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: of a six-year-old girl in Washington Borough in Warren County
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: who That was kidnapped and raped by somebody who never
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: should have been in the country.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: And no news coverage. Nobody. No news coverage. Very slim.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: I mean, I shouldn't say nobody because NJ.com picked it up.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Fox in Philadelphia did something. All the networks, silent.
• 15:10
  Speaker 7: Thank you, Larry, for sharing that horrific story. It's so
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: upsetting to hear, but you couldn't be more correct. The
• 15:19
  Speaker 7: news has to get their act together.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, please call the news stations. Just call the news stations.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: They listen. If they have enough people calling, they'll listen.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: But don't just go.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: To the caller line. Call the regular line and ask
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: for the news director or ask for the general manager.
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: Hey, Larry, I feel your anger and your pain about
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: that six-year-old girl. Something just needs to be done with
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: all these sanctuary cities and states harboring all these illegal immigrants.
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: this is really sad, and it's not the first time
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: it happens. But yeah, Channel 12, I did think News
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: 12 covered this last week, if I'm not mistaken.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I did just hear about that, that they did
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: do a story on it. What I'd love to know,
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: and if you could call back, did they send somebody,
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: or did they just find the story online somewhere and
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: read it? Because everybody should be sending a reporter. There
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: should be live shots from there, galore. with this story.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Catch up. Just do better.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Right now at 8.30, let's get to news with Daria Albinger. Wow,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: I am impressed. See, I practiced during the break. You
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: know what, though?
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: I was thinking, when you stumbled on Natalie's name, you
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: know what that says? We are all real at this place.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's true.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: We're not AI.
• 16:42
  Speaker 8: No AI, no air names going on here.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: 100% human.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: We'd be much better if we were AI.
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: That's true. I would be much better.
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: I would never stumble if I were AI, but you
• 16:52
  Speaker 8: guys can't kill the lily. And it's going to be
• 16:55
  Speaker 8: sunny and cooler. You will not be able to find
• 16:57
  Speaker 8: a better day than today, a high of 71 degrees.
• 17:01
  Speaker 8: With less than two months to go to the midterm elections,
• 17:04
  Speaker 8: the Supreme Court has blocked President Trump's push to limit
• 17:07
  Speaker 8: mail-in voting.
• 17:08
  Speaker 9: Democratic-led states and voting rights groups had argued that the
• 17:11
  Speaker 9: president's attempt to have the Postal Service screen ballots would
• 17:14
  Speaker 9: create chaos and confusion so close to the midterms. And
• 17:18
  Speaker 9: while this is a big setback for the president, who
• 17:20
  Speaker 9: has long argued without evidence that mail-in voting leads to
• 17:23
  Speaker 9: widespread fraud, the president is expected to keep up this fight,
• 17:27
  Speaker 9: even as President Trump himself has voted by mail.
• 17:30
  Speaker 8: ABC's Mary Bruce, California Governor Gavin Newsom is now saying
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: that he will not run for president in 2028 if
• 17:37
  Speaker 8: former Vice President Kamala Harris says she's going to. There's
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: a town hall meeting tonight in the South Bronx at
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: the site of the latest deadly Legionnaire's disease cluster. The
• 17:46
  Speaker 8: Legionella bacteria was found in a number of cooling towers,
• 17:50
  Speaker 8: including at Yankee Stadium. A Brooklyn community wants to know
• 17:54
  Speaker 8: who stole a beloved bodega cat.
• 17:57
  Speaker 10: Surveillance footage shows the couple scooping the cat outside of
• 18:00
  Speaker 10: 8th Street Mini Market in Park Slope on Thursday.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I had my Victoria. She died like three months ago,
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: you know. She's been with me like 17 years.
• 18:10
  Speaker 8: The community did rally because it just seemed like such
• 18:14
  Speaker 8: an unnecessary event.
• 18:16
  Speaker 10: Family owners of the bodega say the cat named Jabal
• 18:18
  Speaker 10: was wearing a collar when he was snatched outside of
• 18:21
  Speaker 10: the store. The family said they did get a call
• 18:23
  Speaker 10: from someone claiming to have Jabal and said they would
• 18:26
  Speaker 10: soon return him to the store. I'm Leslie Radabali, WOR News.
• 18:30
  Speaker 8: Costco's raising prices and it's going to limit how much
• 18:32
  Speaker 8: customers can buy of some popular motor oil products as
• 18:36
  Speaker 8: oil prices surge. Its Kirkland Signature Full Synthetic, for example,
• 18:41

• 18:45
  Speaker 8: $ 30 last year. And purchases are now limited to two
• 18:48
  Speaker 8: boxes a week. The Yankees are in the playoffs with
• 18:51

  Speaker 3: the great Jimmy Fallon from Fox News.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Stay with us.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Ah. Jimmy, don't fail me now, failure. You go to
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: sleep with him at night. He's on from 9 to
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: 12 right here at 710 WOR, the biggest talk radio
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: station in the nation. And then you wake up with
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: Larry and me in the morning at 6. Jimmy, the
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: president of the United States saved my life. when he
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: said yesterday about artificial intelligence, the robots will not be
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: taking over because I can still do my robot dance
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: from my disco dancing days, and I won't have to
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: worry about the competition from them. What about you?
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: Oh, I did not know that you had this illustrious
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: dance background, Kurt. That explains a lot, though.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Listen, I'm not an AI guy.
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: Like, I went to Nassau Community College. They think AI
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: stands for Allen Iverson, the basketball player on the team.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: So we haven't been worried about this at all. But
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: I'm not scared, man.
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: Whenever the opening.
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: In the negotiation is do it our way or everyone's
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: going to die, you kind of know you're getting ripped off.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: That was climate change. That was the vaccine. That was
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: net neutrality. We're going to be fine, okay? You know,
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: I watched Jensen Huang speak yesterday. And he is, of course,
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: as smart as anybody out there. The only thing that
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: threw me is, I don't know if you saw those clips,
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: but he's wearing a shiny leather jacket. And I don't
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: think anybody wants assurances on the fate of humanity from
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: a guy who's dressed like he's running a disco.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Did he go into your closet? Did he go into
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: your closet?
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: Seriously. Seriously.
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: Well, there wasn't a lot of room because I'm currently
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: in the.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Closet, as you know.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, we knew.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: Hey, I think it's fascinating that the John F. Kennedy
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: Center for the Performing Arts is now possibly going into
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: bankruptcy as early as today. Turns out taking that Donald
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: Trump name off, it wasn't such a good idea.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, but I still care because I don't want.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: To see it go under.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: It has a legacy.
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: Why not some JFK-inspired performances? Can we get some Marilyn
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: Monroe impersonators in there?
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Maybe we set up.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: A road obstacle course for a Ted Kennedy Baja off-road challenge.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm invested, man.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: I want to see it stick around.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Now, remember the replacement at night you first talked about it.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: for the dearly departed Emmy Award winner. Who was it
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: who won the Emmy Award for a talk show yesterday, Larry?
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Stephen Colbert, of course. Everybody knew that was going to happen.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Right, but he's gone, and now it's all comedy all
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: the time. Apparently, that format is doing quite well, am
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: I right?
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: Oh, the comics unleashed?
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because what's happening is, you know, Byron Allen, who
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: is a super smart dude.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: He actually.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: It is a breakthrough idea, but it dawned on him
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: that people who tune into a comedy show want to laugh.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: So he was like a pioneer in that regard in
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: late night because no one's prioritized that in the last
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: 10 years. And that's kind of what he knows is
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: that unbeknownst to Colbert or maybe Jimmy Kimmel, people don't
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: want to hear right before they go to bed that
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: fascists have taken.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Over the government. Women and blacks are losing their rights.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: We're all going to die. Go to bed, everybody.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: Good night. That's all he's doing is he's doing comedy
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: in the year 1992, which is all we try to
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: do on my show is just do comedy. You don't
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: have to editorialize.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: You don't have to care.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: So that cold, but you know, Colbert thing good for
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: them last night, but it was embarrassing, you know?
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: A lot of the stuff they did were embarrassing. Did
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: you know any of the shows did the Emmys are
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: like dying because it's streaming and there's 9 million shows
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: and not everybody watches this stuff.
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're actually changing the name of the ceremony to
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: the Googles because you have to Google all the nominees so.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: You can find out who's winning for what.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: It's like dancing with the stars, dancing with the Googles.
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: You have no idea who half of these people are.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Don't bring up Dancing with the Stars. Curtis is still upset.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: He didn't get selected.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Natalie here was supposed to get me into the
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: 35th anniversary edition. She did a lot. She did a lot.
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 24:25
  Speaker 8: I know.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Did they know?
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: Nat, did they know about his robot dance?
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: I mean, maybe.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: We should have led with that, and they might have
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: changed it.
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: You know what?
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: If I had just sent the twerking, he would have
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: been on it.
• 24:36
  Speaker 8: That's what happens.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: It's all my fault.
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: Listen, Kurt, you know, the Trumps do love you. How
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: about you and Don Jr. do the Russian edition Dancing.
• 24:47
  Speaker 11: With the Czars? Dancing with the Czars. That is a classic. Oh, man,
• 24:57
  Speaker 11: I can't top that. I can't top that.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Let me take you back to the days when you
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: were riding that yellow cab around like an average hack.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: What would this price of gasoline do to your ability
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: to take home enough money to pay the basics? It
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: would actually kill you.
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: You know, at $ 4 a gallon, you're losing about $ 80
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: to $ 90 a day in a $ 20.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Tank of gas. Okay, so at these prices.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: I'm wearing a blonde wig, powdering my Adam's apple and
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: turning tricks behind the chevron. You know, this isn't even
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: a debate at this point.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: It's like, you know, where are you going, LaGuardia?
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: Can I get you anything else on the way?
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: What the hell do you do to your Adam's apple?
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: I didn't hear that. What was that verb?
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Well, you powder it so they don't see it.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Oh, I see.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: I see.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: I'm so happy I didn't know that. Listen, I want
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: to say something serious for one second. I just want
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: to congratulate Fox News because Fox News was the only
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: outlet that covered the rape of a six-year-old girl in
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: New Jersey. All of the networks ignored it. All the
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: local news ignored it because she was raped by an
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: illegal alien. So please, whoever was responsible for that and
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: doing that, thank them because without them, we probably wouldn't
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: even know about it.
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, listen, I appreciate you talking about that story
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: because it starts with the local coverage. If the local
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: coverage doesn't pick it up, it doesn't go wider. So
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: somebody must have caught it at Fox, you know, because
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: another network might have did something like cursory, like a reader,
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: like because it wasn't big coverage at all.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: So, yeah, good on whoever did and good on you
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: guys if you've been talking about that. But, yeah, just
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: to be clear, I obviously had.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Nothing to do with it.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not even allowed to pick a floor for the
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: elevator when I get in. But, yeah, it's nice to know.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: That's very bright of them not to let you pick
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: a floor. Very astute. Very smart. In fact, that requires AI,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: actual intelligence.
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: Boom.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Jimmy. Don't fail me now, fail you. Remember,
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: you go to sleep with Jimmy at night here on 710WOR.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: He's on six to nine, Monday through Fridays. And then
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: you wake up with Larry and me in the morning
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: at six. Thank you, Jimmy.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: You're the best, Kurt.
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: See you on the dance floor, Mr.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: Roboto.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: All of last year, running for the presidency, the Democratic
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: nomination of his party. Governor Newsom in California. Disasters taking place, fires, floods.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: It didn't matter. He was on the road. He had
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: a book out, which was real cringy. It was almost
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: like a little Mama Dearest-esque. He had a podcast in
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: which he'd take on adversaries. He traveled the world. Wherever
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: Trump went, it's almost like he wanted to shadow him.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, yesterday, he says, well,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: your former Vice President Harris is should run for the nomination.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not. And I'm saying to myself, well, wait a second.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Why would you say that? Vice President Harris has already
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: been asked by some of the candidates running in the midterms,
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: please don't visit us here. Please don't come to our state. Please, please,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: pretty please don't come to our state. Why the hell
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: would he do something like that?
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: The guy is so unbelievably smarmy. I just don't think
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: he played nationally. He's been running for president now for
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: the last year and a half, and he's gone down
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: in the polls. So I think that is a reality
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: check for him. I don't think that he's doing this
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: because he's so altruistic that, you know, Kamala Harris, she
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: deserves it. No, he's just letting us know very early
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: on that he might be dropping out. And the guy
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: that's shooting up like a rocket right now is the
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: guy you've been talking about, John Ossoff.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: He was just a rookie the last time he ran. Remember,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: this was at the end of the 2020 cycle when
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: they had the special election in Georgia, and he just
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: barely got into office there. He was a rookie, but boy,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: he's really shaped up. His speeches are going viral. He's
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: on the attack against Trump. which you have to do
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: if you are going to be considered a viable candidate,
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: because that's what the Democrats want. Somebody who's going to
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: go after Maggie, somebody who's going to go after Trump.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: His only problem? He's part Jewish.
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but he checks all the boxes. He does check
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: a lot of boxes. Georgia, I mean, that's become a
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: purple state. He's mostly moderate, I mean, on many of
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: the issues, but he's left enough for the Democratic Party
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: to like him in a primary position. No, he's serious.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: It's funny because when you first mentioned him, oh, not
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: John Ossoff.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: No, very good. No, he's— The problem is what happens
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: when that progressive wing really puts his feet to the
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: fire about his religious background, being Jewish, his support of Israel.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: What does he do then? Because that's almost become a
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: litmus test now if you want progressives to support you.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: Well, it's funny you said that because if you look
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: at the polls, it's him and AOC at this point.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: And I think she's going to run for president.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, there's no doubt.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I know I think she was going
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: back and forth for a while between Senate and president.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: But right now there's a lot of pressure on her
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: to run for president because she has the name and
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: she's going to be running at the right time, as
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: you mentioned. Well, tomorrow we got tickets to see Richard
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: Marks at 825. But in the meantime, the talk back
• 30:33
