• 1:11
  Speaker 3: emotional fashion. I have a few quick comments to make.

  Speaker 2: free speaking.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: I'm speaking for the community. I'm speaking for many people right.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: But I want to focus not so much on me.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I'm still alive and well, at least I think for today.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: With all the people whould love to kill me, that's
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: been my history. It's okay. That's why I love that

  Speaker 2: edm song bunt Oh. I enjoy. I enjoy this day,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: another day of life. It's the best day of my life.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: It is because I'm alive. I have the best wife
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: you could ever have, Nancy. I have our cats, and
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: I have so many people who've grown up listening to
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: me for thirty five years in talk c radio, and
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: all the people that I've reached out and touched all
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: over the world. No, no, this is the tribute to
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Bernard McGirk, who is not here. And if you want
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: to honor bern All McGirk as I do every year,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: as you should do. The way you can do it
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: every day is to warn men forty five and older
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: to get that simple prick of the finger that psa
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: blood test that saves lives. I had stage four prostate cancer.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: You hear from doctor Gil Leiderman often after other doctors
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: have not done well for their patients, he oftentimes can
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: patch people up and give them life where they would
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: have normally had a horrendous death like Bernard McGirt did.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: So keep that in mind. That's how you honor the
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: memory of Bernard McGirt, to make sure that doesn't happen
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: to other men. A simple blood test and he would
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: still be alive. He was the healthiest of all of us.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Over there at WABC, let's go over Canon Chris Is
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: calling from Beth Page. Your turn to be heard here
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: at seven to ten WOR Chris take Curtis.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: I used to listen to and call you a lot
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: on the other station, obviously, and I love you, You're great,
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: But I have to push back on a couple of things,
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: if you, if you will let me. First of all,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: I listen to Sid all the time. He used to
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: have you on like five days a week. These guys
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: were the best together. I don't know what the heck happened.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: And to this day Sid will even say he goes,
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: I love Curtis. I'm not you know, I'm sorry that
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: this election got between you guys. It's it's just it's
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: lunacy to me that this has happened. You were tremendous.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Well, you have to understand. You have to understand that
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: all when he was saying that Testio, remember the godfather
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: whoever arranged the meeting is the trader. That's Sid who
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: all along was contacting people to vote for Cuomo, encouraging
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: people to jump from my campaign to the Cuomo campaign. Look,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: I have all the evidence. There's no doubt about it.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: He had had five lunches, five dinners with Andrew CMO.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: What's he having dinner for? That's how Andrew Cuomo Andrew
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: evil eyed operated. I knew that Sid is a novice
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: to politics. He never dealt with politics before. He is
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: a sports guy, and then he became a CMO sexual
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: big time. Oh take time. And the reason that I
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: was on five times a week is I would not
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: ever consider being his partner because he needs one, He
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: desperately needs one. Lu Rafino does a great job as
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: his wingman. The board operator was great with Imans. That
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: keeps him a little more focused. But when he got.
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: Rid of Andrew Giuliani was trying, you can't see you
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: can't disagree with Sid Now I could, because obviously I
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: have more credit, I'm older, I have more experience than Siddy.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: But others couldn't. He couldn't. So I got on once
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: a week and then they said, well, do it twice
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: a week, three times a week, four times a week,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: five times a week. No problem, he needed that. I
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: didn't mind doing the extra radio. Let does Barney talk?
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: You know, sit in friends, I love you, you love me?
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: And then, my god, you can predict what the program
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: is each and every day. I can tell all of you.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: If Bernard McGirk had survived as prostate cancer, like luckily
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: I had stage four, what happened at WABC to me
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: would never have happened. Bernard McGirk a man of honor.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: You couldn't be any more loyal than Bernard. Look at
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: all those years with Imus, Look at all those years
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: he kept that program together. Look at all those years
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: that he would be beaten down each and every day
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: by Imus, who was a monster. And then he'd be
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: the one to rally Charles McCord and Rob Bartlett and
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Lurefino and the other contributors and say no, no, no,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: let's let's focus for another day. And he would do
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: all the heavy lifting. He would do all the show prep,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: just like he did for the brand new show Bernard
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: McGirk and Sid Roseberg. Let's sit he now. He thought
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: he didn't need anybody. He does. You can't just do
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: an I and Me show. You gotta do the work,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: and not just with your friends. You have to deal
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: with your foes. Let's go if we can to Bob,
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: who's calling from Perth? Hand boy, your turn to be
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: heard here on seven ten wor Bobby.
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: Good morning, Curtage. How are you sir? Happy new year?
• 7:37

• 7:41
  Speaker 2: two week run here substituting for the best in talk radio,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Mark Sabone and can't get any better than that.
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: And I also know a good friend of yours that
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: used to do Elvison Personeder dear elvis Or Daniels.

• 8:09
  Speaker 6: to say, what is uh the airplane, the helicopter pilot
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: in Poko gonna do bet the outer bridge, which, uh
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: you know how how bad that is? They picked every
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: other thing, but they can't pick the outer bridge, the.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Outer bridge crossing. How many people over the years have
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: done the hop skipping a jump? You know what that is?
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Is he they start out in Brooklyn, they cross of Arizona,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: they go to the south shore of Staten Island, then
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: across the outer Bridge crossing go down to Manalapana, Jersey Shore.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Next stop might be Pennsylvania, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee. Parts
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: are them? It all starts with the outer bridge crossing.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Are there? Right?
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you something. I just want you to
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: keep that focus. I know there are many many callers
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: blazing away there, blazing away. Please at the start of
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: the new year, sink back to all the greats in
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: this sting of ours that we love so much. Talk
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: radio from Barry Gray to Bob Grant to Barry Farbird
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: and Samuels to Bernard McGirk all, the people who paved
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: the way. None of them, though, suffered like Bernard McGirk suffered.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: You just have no idea what it was like to
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: be in the Imus cage in the morning. He had
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: to deal with that monster, and then he had to
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: prepare the show. He had to keep don Imus going.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: And then when his dream came true, instead of saying
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: what so many in our business, well no, no, no, no,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: I want to do it my own, he said, I
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: want to bring up my friends Sid Rose Murty from Florida,
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: who had lost every job down there, and Adjustment fired
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: from another radio station. I don't know why, but they
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: were a great partnership. Twenty sixteen. Sid was for Hillary
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: really legitimately, and Bernald McGirk was a Trumper before many
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: became Trumpers. And then when Sid thought it could be
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: his own, watch out the long knives come out. Oh
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: by the way, he's planning to move to Florida now,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, he lives out there in the Irish rival area.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: He's ready to sell his house. Hey, look, God bless
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: all of you out there. If you don't want to
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: stay in the Land of Mondamie, I get it. That's
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: what America is about. You get to move to the
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: places you want to go, but don't pretend you're gonna
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: stay and fight for what you know is right. Improve
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: don't move. You gotta prove it. You gotta be a
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: man of honor. You come into the world when nothing,
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: you go out with nothing. God bless Bernard McGirk. He
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: lived as a man of honor. He died as a
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: man of honor.
