- 0:00Speaker 1: You know, Larry and Natalie and all the quiet stormers
- 0:04Speaker 1: here Chris on loan from Mark Simone, who has become
- 0:07Speaker 1: a bit of a chatterbox of late. Not a chatterbox,
- 0:12Speaker 1: but it's chatterbox.
- 0:14Speaker 2: A bit of an exaggeration.
- 0:16Speaker 1: You mean he spoke a couple of times, right, But
- 0:19Speaker 1: now you'll have an opportunity to contribute to this discussion
- 0:22Speaker 1: because it all came about yesterday. I'm roaming around the
- 0:25Speaker 1: Upper West Side. I'm doing chores for Nancy and the cats,
- 0:29Speaker 1: and I see this modern bus roll up, so I'm thinking,
- 0:32Speaker 1: maybe it's tourists, but it's all these kids getting off,
- 0:36Speaker 1: and they have grandparents are there and their parents, and
- 0:39Speaker 1: they're coming home from camp up near the Finger Lakes
- 0:42Speaker 1: and upstate New York. And you know, some of them
- 0:45Speaker 1: are crying, some of them are happy. And because they're
- 0:48Speaker 1: standing around and have a chance to get in touch
- 0:51Speaker 1: with them and talk with them. And some of the
- 0:54Speaker 1: grandparents had had good experiences when they went to camp,
- 0:58Speaker 1: their kids not so good. I didn't get a chance
- 1:01Speaker 1: to speak to their grandchildren, their children. But it just
- 1:04Speaker 1: took me back to when I was watching Ed Sullivan
- 1:08Speaker 1: waiting for Topo Chico the Little Italian Mouse to come out,
- 1:11Speaker 1: because that was my favorite. I think he was there
- 1:13Speaker 1: sixty three times, and all of a sudden, Alan Sherman
- 1:18Speaker 1: is out there. It's nineteen sixty three, and he's singing
- 1:22Speaker 1: the camp salute, Hello Mather, Hello Father, Camp Granada, Hello Mater.
- 1:29Speaker 1: He talks about getting poison ivy. It was real. His
- 1:33Speaker 1: son had gone to this camp up near Lake Champlain
- 1:37Speaker 1: in Westport, New York. People think Westport, Oh, Connecticut. You
- 1:40Speaker 1: know Tom Cuddy shut is only like a thousand people
- 1:44Speaker 1: up there, and he got poison ivy. And I remember
- 1:48Speaker 1: later on in the song and I want to need
- 1:50Speaker 1: the help of Tom Cuddy and others out there who
- 1:52Speaker 1: are music officionados. He mentions Leonard Skinner and I'm thinking
- 1:59Speaker 1: that that's where that bunch of Southern Rebels got their
- 2:03Speaker 1: name for that group, Leonard Skinnett. Oh, that's interesting spell
- 2:06Speaker 1: differently spelled differently, but I'm thinking that. But anyway, he
- 2:10Speaker 1: talked about getting poison ivy, bad weather, other activities, and
- 2:15Speaker 1: it became such a hit. I think it was number
- 2:17Speaker 1: two in nineteen sixty three, and that was a time
- 2:23Speaker 1: where obviously I was a kid and I had a
- 2:26Speaker 1: chance to go to sleep away camp up in Bear Mountain.
- 2:30Speaker 1: So my mother enrolled me with CYO, which was the
- 2:33Speaker 1: Catholic Youth Organization. Jewish kids said, the YMHA, the YWHA,
- 2:38Speaker 1: Young Men Hebrew Association, Young Women Hebrew Association, the Fresh
- 2:43Speaker 1: Air Fund. Kids were for the poor kids, you know,
- 2:46Speaker 1: benefactors paid for them to go away like two weeks.
- 2:50Speaker 1: The PAO had a camp. And then there were other
- 2:52Speaker 1: families who like they just believed in sending their kids
- 2:55Speaker 1: after school got released before July fourth. The next thing,
- 2:59Speaker 1: they were on a us to sleepover camp. And then
- 3:02Speaker 1: eventually the kids might even become the camp counselors who
- 3:05Speaker 1: would have an undue bad influence on the younger kids
- 3:08Speaker 1: because they would introduce them to smoke in marijuana. H
- 3:12Speaker 1: you know, thinking about having sex because he'd be having
- 3:14Speaker 1: sex with the other camp counselors.
- 3:16Speaker 2: All the worstess Oh that all the time.
- 3:19Speaker 1: The worst possible things.
- 3:21Speaker 2: The sex thing is a big thing among the camp counselors.
- 3:24Speaker 2: I was a camp counselor. I'll get into that. In
- 3:26Speaker 2: the second first Yes Okay nineteen sixty three novelty hit
- 3:32Speaker 2: Hello Mada Hello. Fodda played a direct role in the
- 3:36Speaker 2: name of the band Leonard Skinner.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Now, how is that even conceivable?
- 3:40Speaker 3: Right?
- 3:41Speaker 1: I mean you think Alan Scharman, Jewish comedian songs toll
- 3:45Speaker 1: came out of Chicago. I think he went to like
- 3:48Speaker 1: fifteen different schools when he was growing up. I guess
- 3:50Speaker 1: they could never pay the rent and they were on
- 3:52Speaker 1: the move. How did he have an influence on a
- 3:55Speaker 1: group of Southern hillbillies? Leonard Skinner doing that Dick Sea
- 4:00Speaker 1: Rock and a Man. They were one of the greatest
- 4:02Speaker 1: bands of all time, greatest bands. Saw them actually in
- 4:05Speaker 1: video performing at Fulton County Stadium. You know when Ted
- 4:08Speaker 1: Turner only with the Atlanta Bridge Man they rock the house.
- 4:12Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a shame about the plane crash. I
- 4:14Speaker 2: mean the lead singer and some of the other ones
- 4:17Speaker 2: died in the bands.
- 4:18Speaker 1: Could you have ever guessed that the name for the
- 4:21Speaker 1: band this classic camp soul.
- 4:23Speaker 2: Here's the line you remember Leonard Skinner he got toe
- 4:27Speaker 2: Maine poisoning last night after dinner, because that's the song.
- 4:32Speaker 2: The song builds through a nice ending, but the whole
- 4:35Speaker 2: thing is how horrible the camp is.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Oh so I couldn't wait to break out of the
- 4:39Speaker 1: cyo camp up and Bear Mountain. You're entitled to one call.
- 4:43Speaker 1: So after one week there, I felt like it was
- 4:45Speaker 1: a prison. Yeah, prisoner. So I said to my mother,
- 4:49Speaker 1: get me out of it, please, whatever you do. And
- 4:51Speaker 1: I became a real mama Luke. I started crying, I mean,
- 4:54Speaker 1: oh man. And then all of a sudden, my aunt Lucy,
- 4:58Speaker 1: my mother, my uncle Steve came up in the fifty
- 5:01Speaker 1: four to for the station wagon. I saw them driving
- 5:04Speaker 1: towards the camp counselor's headquarters and I was running after
- 5:08Speaker 1: the car. I couldn't run fast enough. Get me out
- 5:11Speaker 1: of here.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Man.
- 5:12Speaker 1: I had the worst. I got poison, ivy mosquito bites
- 5:16Speaker 1: like a Yeah. I hated I hated camp. Yeah. Some
- 5:19Speaker 1: of my friends, they came back, you know, right before
- 5:21Speaker 1: they started school after Labor Day. Oh, camp was great.
- 5:25Speaker 1: We were rowing, we were swimming, we broke out of camp,
- 5:28Speaker 1: we went into town, we did this and that. And
- 5:30Speaker 1: I'm saying, how is it My experiences were so bad
- 5:35Speaker 1: and theirs were so good that they were looking forward
- 5:37Speaker 1: and going back to camp after school finished next time. Wow.
- 5:41Speaker 2: I never got to go to camp, not once except
- 5:43Speaker 2: when I worked at a camp. But I never got
- 5:45Speaker 2: to go to camp because my mom and dad loved me.
- 5:50Speaker 5: You know what, I did not go to camp either.
- 5:53Speaker 5: I grew up in Staten Island, and I don't know
- 5:56Speaker 5: if this was a Staten Island thing, but the only
- 5:58Speaker 5: kids who went to sleep away.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Camp were all my Jewish friends.
- 6:01Speaker 5: They all got and I was jealous. I was like,
- 6:03Speaker 5: where are they going for the summer? And I'm telling you,
- 6:06Speaker 5: I heard their parents were having a great time about
- 6:08Speaker 5: their kids during the summer, so I think they had
- 6:12Speaker 5: something going that was smart.
- 6:14Speaker 2: So I don't remember anybody in my neighborhood going to camp.
- 6:17Speaker 2: That's it just wasn't a thing in our neighborhood. How
- 6:20Speaker 2: about how about you, Chris.
- 6:22Speaker 6: Yeah, Chrish, the Quiet Storm, not in the Superway camps
- 6:25Speaker 6: now just day camps.
- 6:26Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh did you sing b I n g O
- 6:29Speaker 1: Bingo was his name? Did you do that on the
- 6:32Speaker 1: bush through the day camp?
- 6:33Speaker 2: No?
- 6:34Speaker 1: No, nothing like that.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Well, you know, you want to elaborate a little bit
- 6:37Speaker 2: on that camp experience.
- 6:40Speaker 6: Play games, go to the movies, you know, go to parks. Yeah,
- 6:44Speaker 6: I remember that. Yeah, regular regular camp stuff. Go to
- 6:47Speaker 6: a baseball game every once in a while, and to
- 6:49Speaker 6: a couple of Yankee games.
- 6:51Speaker 5: They weren't having sex all over camp like they were
- 6:54Speaker 5: talking ten.
- 6:57Speaker 2: The counselors are the ones having the sex.
- 7:00Speaker 6: The camp was also like a thousand feet from my house,
- 7:02Speaker 6: so oh away, that's not come.
- 7:06Speaker 1: On, that's not a good camp experience. It was. It
- 7:08Speaker 1: was fine, but a thousand feet away from your house?
- 7:12Speaker 1: You right by my high school. Did you have the
- 7:13Speaker 1: Elmer's glue with the sticks that you know you had
- 7:17Speaker 1: in the good Yuma barge and you had to make
- 7:19Speaker 1: all kinds of house Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah we did that.
- 7:23Speaker 6: The arts and crafts and the macaroni are yeah.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Okay, god you had some of those experiences.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Boy, dragging information out of Chris, it's like being in
- 7:35Speaker 2: a police precinct.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Or being like in Gitmo with the terrorists, you know,
- 7:40Speaker 1: asking them about terrorist activities, and then we do we
- 7:44Speaker 1: have to waterboard you to get total I'd rather you're not, but.
- 7:51Speaker 2: All right, we'll let you go. Okay, thanks Chris. You
- 7:54Speaker 2: have a way of telling the story. Great, thank you.
- 7:58Speaker 1: But I'd be so interested in hearing from Mom any
- 8:00Speaker 1: listeners of their camp experiences, or their parents, or their grandparents,
- 8:06Speaker 1: or even their kids or grandchildren, because some families it's
- 8:10Speaker 1: like a tradition. Everybody, absolutely everybody goes to sleep away camp.
- 8:14Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
- 8:16Speaker 5: No camps are ranked like you're like, oh, you went
- 8:19Speaker 5: to that camp. I went to this camp.
- 8:21Speaker 4: And I know.
- 8:22Speaker 5: People who were in their seventies and eighties who continue
- 8:26Speaker 5: to go to camp reunions like you have a college reunion.
- 8:29Speaker 5: Their camp reunions are even more important to them than that.
- 8:32Speaker 2: It's starting to sound like a cult. I'm almost glad
- 8:35Speaker 2: I didn't go.
- 8:36Speaker 1: I am telling you. The kids that I grew up
- 8:38Speaker 1: with had better experiences going to summer camp sleep away
- 8:43Speaker 1: camp than they did in school. They look forward to it.
- 8:47Speaker 2: So I was a counselor to camp. I never went
- 8:49Speaker 2: to a camp, but it was a counselor to camp
- 8:51Speaker 2: because when I was in high school, Lisa Pinto, my
- 8:54Speaker 2: first love, broke up with me. Oh and I just
- 8:58Speaker 2: had to get out of town. Italian Girl and I went,
- 9:02Speaker 2: yeah Italian Girl and went to uh Florida for the
- 9:05Speaker 2: summer to work at Camp Challenge, a camp for handicapped
- 9:09Speaker 2: kids disabled. It was the best experience of my life.
- 9:14Speaker 2: I really wanted to work at Disney World and be Goofy.
- 9:17Speaker 2: That's what my dream was at the time, but I
- 9:20Speaker 2: didn't have a car, so they wouldn't hire me.
- 9:22Speaker 1: Hold on, you wanted to be the goofy character at
- 9:27Speaker 1: disney World.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Disney World, Yeah, remember disney World was pretty new back No. No,
- 9:32Speaker 2: it was the coolest thing in the world.
- 9:34Speaker 1: In that costume. Yeah it's humid, dad, it's hot. You'd
- 9:37Speaker 1: be fitching underneath that.
- 9:39Speaker 2: I was eighteen. I didn't think it out. I just thought,
- 9:42Speaker 2: you think you were going.
- 9:43Speaker 1: To attract chicks by being goofy?
- 9:46Speaker 2: No, but I did at Camp Challenge, that's for sure.
- 9:50Speaker 2: So it ended up being the Vetteres selection.
- 9:52Speaker 7: No.
- 9:52Speaker 2: I grew up a lot. It was wonderful. I still
- 9:55Speaker 2: know some of the kids that were there.
- 9:57Speaker 1: She so, even though there's not an alumni, you've maintained contacts. See.
- 10:03Speaker 2: Yeah, especially with some of the kids. There's a kid
- 10:06Speaker 2: named Marco who had severe autism and couldn't speak, and uh,
- 10:11Speaker 2: I just fell in love with the kid, and I
- 10:13Speaker 2: keep in touch with his parents. He's doing really well.
- 10:15Speaker 2: He's he's come along.
- 10:16Speaker 1: This is just so nice.
- 10:18Speaker 5: Larry Most, I want more information on Lisa Pinto what
- 10:23Speaker 5: you're looking I thought about.
- 10:24Speaker 2: The camp thing. I thought you'd look up Camp challenge.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Not Lisa Pinto.
- 10:29Speaker 7: No, I'm looking up every Lisa Pinto there.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Oh no, she got married, I forget her new name.
- 10:33Speaker 1: Of course married. Yeah, I remember my first love was
- 10:37Speaker 1: Angela Sheika Talian Talian girl. Right, of course she got married.
- 10:41Speaker 1: But I'm saying is wow, it crushed you so much
- 10:46Speaker 1: that you decided to get up, go to Florida, become
- 10:50Speaker 1: a camp counselor, and you became a double mench helping
- 10:53Speaker 1: handicapped kids.
- 10:54Speaker 2: It was a great experience. It was an unbelievable experience.
- 10:57Speaker 2: It might have been the best experience of my teenage
- 10:59Speaker 2: years going down there and doing that. Thank Lisa Pento
- 11:03Speaker 2: for breaking.
- 11:03Speaker 1: Up, without which that probably never would have happened.
- 11:06Speaker 2: No, it never would happened. I never would have old.
- 11:08Speaker 1: So how can people weigh in on this discussion here
- 11:11Speaker 1: so they're not like the quiet storm Christa sitting over there.

- 11:34Speaker 2: And don't forget the best talk back of the week
- 11:37Speaker 2: takes almost ce crane radio sea crane radios that work
- 11:40Speaker 2: when it matters most. Well, Donald Trump, remember that I
- 11:48Speaker 2: love when he does stuff like this. I love when
- 11:50Speaker 2: every president does stuff like this, but it seems even
- 11:52Speaker 2: more special with Donald Trump. Remember that California lifeguard that
- 11:56Speaker 2: risked his life to save a little boy. Well, he
- 11:59Speaker 2: was honored at the White House and we'll play some
- 12:02Speaker 2: of that for you coming up next. Plus you got
- 12:04Speaker 2: a chance to see Journey at a twenty five. Well,
- 12:09Speaker 2: I love to talk to you about life fact because
- 12:11Speaker 2: I believe in this so much, and I believe in
- 12:13Speaker 2: it because it works, and I believe in it because
- 12:15Speaker 2: it saves lives. As someone who spent a career in news,
- 12:18Speaker 2: I've seen how quickly that it can happen, how an
- 12:23Speaker 2: emergency can happen when everything is just going along normal,
- 12:27Speaker 2: all of a sudden boom. Choking is one of those moments,
- 12:31Speaker 2: and it can happen to anyone, a child, a parent,
- 12:34Speaker 2: a grandparent, And when it does, seconds matter, that's why
- 12:37Speaker 2: I want to tell you about life back. Life back
- 12:40Speaker 2: is the first and only FDA authorized suction anti choking
- 12:45Speaker 2: device to be used for second line treatment when recommended
- 12:49Speaker 2: choking protocols have been followed without success. And here's what's
- 12:53Speaker 2: so remarkable. Life back has helped save over six thousand
- 12:57Speaker 2: lives worldwide. That that's not just the number. We're talking about,
- 13:02Speaker 2: real people, real second chances. Preparedness matters. Having the right
- 13:08Speaker 2: tool nearby can make all the difference in the world.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Learn more about life back today, do yourself a favor.
- 13:15Speaker 2: Go to lifevack dot net. That's lifeback dot net. Just
- 13:20Speaker 2: visit lifevack dot net and see how you can be
- 13:24Speaker 2: ready when it counts. Incredible, incredible rescue in California, and
- 13:31Speaker 2: it caught the eye of I guess it was Eric
- 13:33Speaker 2: Trump who saw it first and then sent the video
- 13:37Speaker 2: to his dad, the President and Donald Trump invited Ryder Williams,
- 13:42Speaker 2: who's sixteen years old. What a great name, Ryder Williams
- 13:45Speaker 2: for a lifeguard. Good looking kid too, and his family
- 13:49Speaker 2: as well as the ten year old boy he saved,
- 13:52Speaker 2: Nathaniel Ray. Now Nathaniel was taken out. It was incredibly
- 13:59Speaker 2: dangerous situation. Huge waves. There was an immense undertow and
- 14:06Speaker 2: this kid, writer Williams, saw what was going on and
- 14:11Speaker 2: immediately immediately dove into the water to save him. We've
- 14:16Speaker 2: talked about it, you've probably seen the video, and here
- 14:19Speaker 2: he is in those.
- 14:20Speaker 8: Dangerous moments that we have. We always try to fall
- 14:21Speaker 8: back on our training. We are training so well, like
- 14:23Speaker 8: many to handle that situation as best we can. So
- 14:27Speaker 8: I really understand about how to get the boy out
- 14:29Speaker 8: of the water as fasts I can. And for shaking
- 14:32Speaker 8: my future. I want to be a firefighter in the future.
- 14:35Speaker 8: Hope they go to Karnac School.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Well, I'm sure they're going to It's gonna be a firefighter.
- 14:39Speaker 2: It's going to be anything he wants to be because
- 14:41Speaker 2: he's an honest to god hero. There's a lot of
- 14:44Speaker 2: lifeguards that maybe would have tried to get a boat
- 14:48Speaker 2: or tried to get a surfboard or something because the
- 14:50Speaker 2: water was so dangerous. This kid just saw somebody was
- 14:54Speaker 2: in trouble and dove in.
- 14:56Speaker 9: What you did was incredible, and everybody saw it, and
- 15:01Speaker 9: you'd watch it over and over. I know when I
- 15:02Speaker 9: first sort of said, roll that back, I want to
- 15:04Speaker 9: see that again. Is it really happening.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Yeah, he and his family were invited to the White House,
- 15:10Speaker 2: all expenses paid, and so was ten year old Nathaniel Ray,
- 15:16Speaker 2: all expenses paid from California. I, Curtis, I just love
- 15:21Speaker 2: those moments. They're the best moments to me.
- 15:24Speaker 1: More important than the President honoring winning football, basketball, or
- 15:28Speaker 1: baseball team, because this young man, whether he realizes or not,
- 15:34Speaker 1: represents a lot of lifeguards out there, young men, young
- 15:38Speaker 1: women who are out there, who saved lives all the time,
- 15:41Speaker 1: who do things that your own body would prevent you
- 15:45Speaker 1: from doing, you know, your own mindset, which it don't.
- 15:48Speaker 1: Don't don't dive in there. Look at the undertow, look
- 15:51Speaker 1: look at the rapids coming at you. And yet they
- 15:54Speaker 1: do it time and time again, Yeah, and gazing very
- 15:56Speaker 1: little attention and recognition.
- 15:58Speaker 2: You're right, they don't get enough attention. And there's lives
- 16:01Speaker 2: saved all the time down the Jersey shore. And if
- 16:05Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, if anything like that ever happens,
- 16:07Speaker 2: if you're at a beach and you see it, please
- 16:09Speaker 2: let us know about it, because yeah, they're angels on
- 16:12Speaker 2: the beach, and we'd love to talk about them and
- 16:15Speaker 2: give them the praise they deserve. Let's get a talk back,
- 16:17Speaker 2: mister Menty.
- 16:18Speaker 10: What if that life saver was an illegal immigrant that
- 16:25Speaker 10: was working that day and he and he said, that boy,
- 16:29Speaker 10: you think Trump would have invited him to the White
- 16:31Speaker 10: House or.
- 16:33Speaker 2: At least named him, said what he said now, but
- 16:37Speaker 2: he wasn't. Yeahs I know. I love that guy. He
- 16:40Speaker 2: always calls me mister Mente. He calls in all the time.
- 16:42Speaker 2: I love him.
- 16:43Speaker 1: Remember when we had a shortage of lifeguards here in
- 16:46Speaker 1: New York City. You know, the opening of the season
- 16:48Speaker 1: is Memorial Day weekend, then to Labor Day, and Eric Adams,
- 16:52Speaker 1: swagging man with no plan, wanted to use the illegal
- 16:54Speaker 1: veniceuhelings And he said, people ask him why, Oh, they
- 16:59Speaker 1: all know how to swim. What do you mean, like
- 17:04Speaker 1: the dumbest responses, if you have a shortage of lifeguards, Hey,
- 17:08Speaker 1: I understand you're throwing that out there as a possibility,
- 17:11Speaker 1: but oh, Venezuelans know how to swim.
- 17:14Speaker 2: It's probably true. It is probably actually true. Uh. Anyway,
- 17:20Speaker 2: that's It's such a sweet moment. I love when that happens.
- 17:23Speaker 2: And again again, I'll just say it one more time.
- 17:27Speaker 2: If there are any lifeguards out there, and if you
- 17:29Speaker 2: see a lifeguard doing something wonderful, just just let us
- 17:33Speaker 2: know about it. Leave us a talk back, and let
- 17:34Speaker 2: us know about it so we can praise.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Them up next, giving new meaning to the term happy valley.

- 18:42Speaker 11: respond to emotion from defense attorneys to dismiss the state
- 18:45Speaker 11: indictment in the death of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
- 18:49Speaker 11: They argue that it violates New York's double jeopardy law
- 18:51Speaker 11: since Mangioni has pleaded guilty to federal charges. President Trump
- 18:55Speaker 11: has threatened to bomb Oman over the US allies talks
- 18:58Speaker 11: with Iran to reopen in the Strait of Poor Moves.
- 19:01Speaker 12: The President insists that the US has full control over
- 19:04Speaker 12: the strategic waterway and says he may soon declare it
- 19:07Speaker 12: a US territory, but his own Energy secretary says the
- 19:11Speaker 12: street is a conflict zone. It comes as the sixty
- 19:14Speaker 12: day deadline to reach a long term peace agreement expired Monday,

- 19:21Speaker 11: ABC's Karent Why in Washington, the state of New Hampshire
- 19:24Speaker 11: is sending the bill to four hikers from New York
- 19:27Speaker 11: who were rescued over the weekend.
- 19:29Speaker 7: Authorities with the state's Fish and Game Department were learned
- 19:31Speaker 7: around nine pm on Friday night about a group of
- 19:34Speaker 7: eighteen year old hikers stranded in the White Mountains.
- 19:37Speaker 2: I'm really grateful for the rescuers who came and saved us.
- 19:40Speaker 7: The group called nine one one after one of their
- 19:42Speaker 7: friends were complaining of leg cramps and breathing problems. It
- 19:45Speaker 7: took them over nine hours to get back down to base.
- 19:48Speaker 7: New Hampshire authorities now planned to charge the hikers for
- 19:50Speaker 7: the cost of the rescue mission due to lack of preparation.

- 20:52Speaker 1: The other day, I'm shitting with our program direct at
- 20:55Speaker 1: Tom Cuddy and he's Shank, do you have a like
- 20:57Speaker 1: dead film Animal House and Drop Dead? I said to
- 21:00Speaker 1: him no, because I couldn't relate. I didn't go to college,
- 21:04Speaker 1: but I can relate to the movie that came out
- 21:08Speaker 1: New Jack City, you know with Wesley Snipes iced tea
- 21:13Speaker 1: at Rock Chris Rock. You know about bagging and distributing
- 21:18Speaker 1: crack cocaine in the eighties, because I and the Guardian
- 21:21Speaker 1: Angels used to bust those kind of houses. Who would
- 21:24Speaker 1: have ever thought. Then you go up to Happy Valley
- 21:27Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, home of penn State University, and it was
- 21:32Speaker 1: sort of like the suburban version of New Jack City,
- 21:35Speaker 1: except dealing with powder cocaine. Out of two frats and
- 21:40Speaker 1: two Long Island boys were at the head of it.
- 21:43Speaker 1: Agostino Albatello. It was from Westbury. He was like the
- 21:48Speaker 1: leader of the pack. There were fourteen of them, and
- 21:51Speaker 1: then there was Thomas Robinson. And what they did was
- 21:55Speaker 1: get their frat brothers and their pledges to actually start
- 22:01Speaker 1: processing cocaine on campus that Agostina would bring back from Westbury.
- 22:07Speaker 1: And then they were chopping it up, they were packaging it,
- 22:10Speaker 1: they were selling it on campus. This was since twenty
- 22:13Speaker 1: twenty three, twenty twenty four, and then all of a
- 22:16Speaker 1: sudden authorities got wind of it. Agostina was begging and pleached,
- 22:20Speaker 1: don't give me up, don't give me up. But eventually
- 22:23Speaker 1: some of them decided to eat the parmesan cheese, and
- 22:28Speaker 1: fourteen of them were taken away and chained in shackles
- 22:32Speaker 1: on the Purp Walk. He'll imagine this is a drug
- 22:35Speaker 1: trafficking crew operating openly on campus and off campus in
- 22:39Speaker 1: Happy Valley, dealing with powdered cocaine.
- 22:43Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 22:44Speaker 2: Uh, Di Agostino his father is also charged and he
- 22:48Speaker 2: was apparently helping to buy the cocaine. He was trying
- 22:50Speaker 2: to hide what happened afterwards. He was the one that
- 22:53Speaker 2: was getting the money and laundering the money. So it
- 22:56Speaker 2: was a huge operation. They would go and they'd buy
- 22:59Speaker 2: a kilogram in Philadelphia or by a kilogram in New
- 23:03Speaker 2: York City and then take it back to the frat.
- 23:05Speaker 2: And they had a whole operation going. They were chopping
- 23:08Speaker 2: it up and selling little bags of it all around campus.
- 23:11Speaker 2: Everybody on campus knew about them. Everybody in campus talked
- 23:15Speaker 2: about him. He was known as the number one coke
- 23:19Speaker 2: dealer in Happy Valley, which leads me to go, well,
- 23:23Speaker 2: who are the other coke dealers? If he's number one,
- 23:26Speaker 2: who's number two, who's number three? And also, if everybody
- 23:31Speaker 2: was talking about this, why did it take so long
- 23:35Speaker 2: to bust this ring?
- 23:36Speaker 1: Because snitches get stitches and end up in ditches. Even
- 23:40Speaker 1: in a suburban academic atmosphere, you know, there was a
- 23:43Speaker 1: code of omerta, you don't rat anyone out. And I
- 23:47Speaker 1: think what happened here was once the authorities started moving
- 23:50Speaker 1: in and they pinched one guy or another guy, then
- 23:53Speaker 1: they decided, man, I ain't gonna be doing eight to
- 23:56Speaker 1: ten years, you know, in some prison in Pennsylvania. And
- 24:00Speaker 1: that's when they started coughing up up the ladder, because
- 24:02Speaker 1: you know, you get the small fish first. The pledges,
- 24:05Speaker 1: who obviously thought this was part of being part of
- 24:08Speaker 1: the frat. Let me give you the two frat names.
- 24:10Speaker 1: There was the Delta Upsalam, which was on campus, and
- 24:16Speaker 1: Sigma Hi, which was off campus. Delta Upsalon has been suspended,
- 24:22Speaker 1: but Sigma Hi, which had their house off campus, wasn't
- 24:26Speaker 1: a recognized frat by the university. And I've seen that
- 24:29Speaker 1: when I do my speeches at university, you see off
- 24:31Speaker 1: campus to say, oh yeah, but they're not register recognize
- 24:35Speaker 1: their like animal house. They're absolutely wild and crazy.
- 24:39Speaker 5: Curtis, that's actually a really good point when your kids
- 24:42Speaker 5: go off to college, if they're going to talk about,
- 24:44Speaker 5: you know, going into greek life, which I actually don't
- 24:47Speaker 5: think is a terrible thing. Both of my kids were
- 24:49Speaker 5: in it. I was in it, thankfully. We all had good,
- 24:51Speaker 5: you know experiences. But find out if they're recognized by
- 24:55Speaker 5: the university, because if they are not recognized by the university,
- 24:59Speaker 5: tell them absolutely stay away.
- 25:01Speaker 2: Let me give you the statement from Penn State. We're
- 25:04Speaker 2: horrified by these serious allegations against current and former students.
- 25:08Speaker 2: So former students were involved criminal activity, including hazing such
- 25:12Speaker 2: as this has no place at our institution, and we
- 25:15Speaker 2: will cooperate with law enforcement in every way. We can
- 25:19Speaker 2: We will continue to enhance our efforts around health and
- 25:22Speaker 2: safety and hazing educational efforts at all of our organizations. Oh,
- 25:27Speaker 2: it's going to be fun at Penn State for the
- 25:30Speaker 2: new semester coming up, They're all going to be learning.
- 25:32Speaker 2: Everybody's gonna have required teaching about drugs and hazing. Where
- 25:37Speaker 2: did hazing come from? Was there hazing involved in this
- 25:39Speaker 2: at all?
- 25:40Speaker 1: They are implying that this was part of the hazing,
- 25:43Speaker 1: that you had to package the product. You know, you
- 25:46Speaker 1: had to go to the frat house, probably do what
- 25:48Speaker 1: you did in New Jack City, take all your clothes
- 25:51Speaker 1: off so they could see you weren't taking any product
- 25:53Speaker 1: with you out to door, and then package it, you know,
- 25:57Speaker 1: in the yeah, in the little plastic bags with whatever
- 26:00Speaker 1: marking they had on to claim that was their brand.
- 26:04Speaker 1: My god, you know what this reminds me of. It
- 26:06Speaker 1: just came to me slowly. I turned step by step.
- 26:09Speaker 1: His name was the Chemist. He was the son of
- 26:12Speaker 1: one of the most famous Americans of all time in politics.
- 26:16Speaker 1: She almost became Vice President of the United States. Remember
- 26:20Speaker 1: she was on the ticket with Walter Mondale. She was
- 26:24Speaker 1: Geraldine Ferrara. They tried to say that she was a
- 26:26Speaker 1: normal housewife. She wasn't. She lived in Forest Hills, the gardens.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Her son was called the Chemist at Dartmouth, all right,
- 26:34Speaker 1: heavy league school. You went to the chemist's frat in
- 26:39Speaker 1: order to score cocaine. He was selling cocaine and I
- 26:42Speaker 1: think they took a plea or something like that. But
- 26:45Speaker 1: it's not at all unusual that there are people who
- 26:48Speaker 1: are on campus selling drugs and then you're told don't
- 26:51Speaker 1: knock them out.
- 26:52Speaker 2: Yeah, And you see it in every movie. It's always
- 26:54Speaker 2: in some dark room. The guy's got glasses halfway down
- 26:57Speaker 2: his nose, he's got the funny hair, and he's cooking
- 26:59Speaker 2: up all of the drugs. If you've never been to
- 27:02Speaker 2: state college, let me explain something. This isn't like a
- 27:06Speaker 2: small college's there's fifty thousand students and there's eighty thousand
- 27:12Speaker 2: people at state College. Inside State College, in the surrounding
- 27:16Speaker 2: area there's one hundred and fifty thousand people. So we're
- 27:20Speaker 2: talking about a mid size city with a lot of
- 27:24Speaker 2: college students. One third of them are college students. So
- 27:28Speaker 2: it's not like this can happen and everybody's involved in it,
- 27:32Speaker 2: or it can happen and everybody knew about it. No, no, no, no, no,
- 27:36Speaker 2: It's just like any other mid size city. It could
- 27:39Speaker 2: be happening and nobody knew.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Ah, well, it's probably part of chemistry one on one right,
- 27:46Speaker 1: Well capitalism, Well no, pre capitalism supports that man, business
- 27:51Speaker 1: majors they becoming socialists.
- 27:55Speaker 2: Yeah, unless they have that in prison. I gotta feeling
- 27:57Speaker 2: all them are going to be put away for quite
- 27:59Speaker 2: a long time. Hey, listen when we come back. I
- 28:04Speaker 2: don't know if you've heard about this, but in New
- 28:07Speaker 2: Jersey there's an area, one area in particular, where there
- 28:10Speaker 2: used to be an aerospace plant and they've closed it up,
- 28:15Speaker 2: and the houses that are built on that area where
- 28:19Speaker 2: the aerodynamics of the aeroplane stuff used to be is well,
- 28:27Speaker 2: a lot of people are getting cancer and they're calling
- 28:30Speaker 2: it a national cancer cluster now, and the state just
- 28:34Speaker 2: keeps denying it that it's happening. We're going to talk
- 28:36Speaker 2: more about that when we come back.
- 28:41Speaker 14: Ah.
- 28:41Speaker 1: And ladies and gentlemen know this, no matter what business
- 28:45Speaker 1: you may be in, whether it's a mom and pop
- 28:48Speaker 1: shop that you inherited or small business and now you've

- 30:07Speaker 2: There's a story in our area that deserves a lot
- 30:10Speaker 2: more attention than what it's been getting. It's in Keyport,
- 30:13Speaker 2: New Jersey. Keyport, New Jersey, is just across the Raritan
- 30:17Speaker 2: Bay from say Totinville, and it sits on the bay
- 30:22Speaker 2: and it used to be home to a landfill and
- 30:26Speaker 2: an arrow an airplane facility where they would make airplanes there,
- 30:32Speaker 2: and so that it sits there and because of that,
- 30:35Speaker 2: there is benzene, arsenic and lead in the ground below it.
- 30:41Speaker 2: And so the people who have since built houses there
- 30:45Speaker 2: over what used to be that landfill in the airplane
- 30:49Speaker 2: facility have been getting cancer. There's some of the residents
- 30:55Speaker 2: have kept track of it, and they say there were
- 30:57Speaker 2: forty cases ten years ago. Now there there are four
- 31:01Speaker 2: hundred cases of cancer, including Salvatore Legori, who just found
- 31:08Speaker 2: out that he has blood and bone marrow cancer. He
- 31:12Speaker 2: lost his son a few years back to cancer, and
- 31:16Speaker 2: he just found out that his stepdaughter now has cancer.
- 31:21Speaker 7: What do you think caused us cancer?
- 31:24Speaker 15: Now that my stepdaughter had auto mune and I got cancer,
- 31:28Speaker 15: I'm convinced it's the vapors coming out of his basement.
- 31:31Speaker 2: So the dep in New Jersey keep saying that we've tested,
- 31:36Speaker 2: we keep testing, and there is nothing, and so they're
- 31:40Speaker 2: going to test again because now there's a whole new
- 31:42Speaker 2: cluster of cancer cases. And so the head of the
- 31:47Speaker 2: deep is a guy named he's the commissioner, guy named
- 31:52Speaker 2: Ed Pottersnak, And this is him explaining, we're.
- 31:56Speaker 16: Testing eight palms and businesses in the surrounding area to
- 32:00Speaker 16: see what they call vapor intrusion, if there are vapors
- 32:03Speaker 16: underground that could make their way up into those places
- 32:05Speaker 16: where people work or live.
- 32:08Speaker 2: Yeah, the results won't be out for a couple of weeks.
- 32:11Speaker 2: But they keep testing and testing and testing, and they say, no,
- 32:15Speaker 2: there used to be a problem with the landfill, but
- 32:18Speaker 2: there's really not a problem anymore. We've done a lot
- 32:21Speaker 2: of the tests. There seems to be nothing to the
- 32:24Speaker 2: level where it caused cancer. Except something's causing cancer.
- 32:27Speaker 1: Excuse me. New Jersey, which has more super fun sits
- 32:31Speaker 1: than any other place in the world. I remember going
- 32:34Speaker 1: to Manville, which is where they made all the asbestists,
- 32:37Speaker 1: and it had teared down half the town. You can't
- 32:40Speaker 1: build on it because you know how how aspecialist is.
- 32:43Speaker 1: We didn't realize it back then, but very toxic. But
- 32:48Speaker 1: I remember taking the ferry from New York to Keyport.
- 32:52Speaker 1: I spoke it to that high school, and I remember
- 32:55Speaker 1: that's why I was introduced to the jug handles on
- 32:58Speaker 1: Route thirty. Sakes when they picked me up.
- 32:59Speaker 2: What the hell is that?
- 33:00Speaker 1: That's a jug handle? But people were talking about that
- 33:04Speaker 1: back then, that aerospace location. And remember in Long Island
- 33:09Speaker 1: they had the same problem with the Grumming aerospace plant.
- 33:13Speaker 1: They used to be manufacturing, you know, high intensity aircraft
- 33:17Speaker 1: for the military. For civilian use. It's groundwater. It's definitely groundwater.
- 33:22Speaker 1: A lot of breast cancer, a lot of cancers. It
- 33:25Speaker 1: becomes like a cancer belt. So easy for them to
- 33:28Speaker 1: dismiss it. But why not just dig it all up,
- 33:32Speaker 1: change the dirt like you've done it in so many
- 33:34Speaker 1: other places. I realize it's expensive, but better safe than sorry,
- 33:40Speaker 1: as opposed to letting these poor people. How many have
- 33:43Speaker 1: been diagnosed with cancer? They say the residents claim four hundred.
- 33:47Speaker 1: They have been keeping track. That's one hundred percent increase
- 33:50Speaker 1: in just a few years. Yes, that's amazing. Now they
- 33:54Speaker 1: don't think it's the groundwater, although they are testing the groundwater.
- 33:58Speaker 1: I know they're testing the groundwater, testing the soil. But
- 34:02Speaker 1: the man we just talked to a second ago who
- 34:06Speaker 1: had his whole family hit by cancer salvatory legori.
- 34:10Speaker 2: He says it's the vapors coming out of his basement.
- 34:13Speaker 2: He said, they got to test the gases. There are
- 34:15Speaker 2: still gases coming up.
- 34:17Speaker 4: You know what.
- 34:17Speaker 1: They've had town hall meetings packed. I would say to
- 34:21Speaker 1: the people who are administering these tests, ask them a
- 34:25Speaker 1: simple question, would you live here and then watch them
- 34:29Speaker 1: sweat and schit? Yeah? Probably would say no. No, not
- 34:33Speaker 1: because it's not a nice neighborhood keyboard, but I just
- 34:36Speaker 1: wouldn't live here. I think better safe than sorry when
- 34:40Speaker 1: you have that many cases, you know, whether you go
- 34:42Speaker 1: up to Love Canal, remember Love Canal between Buffalo and
- 34:45Speaker 1: Niagara Falls, parts of Long Island which have been a
- 34:48Speaker 1: cancer belt. Huge numbers of breast cancer out in Staten
- 34:54Speaker 1: Island near the dump, not far a win. Hey, Natalie,
- 34:57Speaker 1: you were born and raised you know, the biggest a
- 35:00Speaker 1: landfill ever fresh kills the number of people developed cancer
- 35:05Speaker 1: around there. Until Rudy Giuliani and gud malon Ai shut
- 35:08Speaker 1: it down. But that was like the biggest dump in
- 35:10Speaker 1: the world.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Remember in Aaron Brocknovitch what you just said a moment ago.
- 35:14Speaker 2: Let them live there or let them Remember when she's
- 35:17Speaker 2: sitting with the attorneys from the other side and they're
- 35:21Speaker 2: drinking the water and he said, by the way, that's
- 35:22Speaker 2: local water, and they all.
- 35:23Speaker 1: Spit it out. Oh my gosh, that scene. Oh now, Natalie,
- 35:27Speaker 1: you remember growing up near the dump, right, yeah. And
- 35:30Speaker 1: I worked at the Staten Island mall. Oh my god,
- 35:33Speaker 1: threw away probably glow in the dark at night.
- 35:36Speaker 5: Oh, Curtis, when you came out on an August night,
- 35:40Speaker 5: that was that was something.
- 35:42Speaker 2: It hit you like a brick that smell.
- 35:45Speaker 1: Yeah, And it wasn't swamp gas. It was all the
- 35:48Speaker 1: toxic chemicals, the garbage. Oh my god. It was horrible.
- 35:52Speaker 1: Thank god Rudy and God malin Ari, the borough president
- 35:55Speaker 1: shut it down. It was a horror for those residents.
- 35:58Speaker 2: In Keyport who's living it through it right now. They
- 36:00Speaker 2: say there's no odor and that's so it's a silent killer.
- 36:03Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 36:03Speaker 2: And but the cases, I mean, New Jersey to be
- 36:07Speaker 2: so cavalier about it, get your act together. And get
- 36:10Speaker 2: out there and help them. Well, Donald Trump spoke yesterday
- 36:13Speaker 2: about a whole lot of things. We'll have it for
- 36:16Speaker 2: you right after these seven o'clock news. Well, Donald Trump
- 36:21Speaker 2: talk about I.
- 36:22Speaker 1: Mentioned that crash was on it. He yelled at us
- 36:25Speaker 1: because we were so engrossed in conversation about everything that
- 36:28Speaker 1: Donald Trump said yesterday, because he answered it panoply a question.
- 36:33Speaker 1: You know, I disagree with Trump from time to time,
- 36:36Speaker 1: but no president has ever taken more questions and gone
- 36:40Speaker 1: back and forth with the media than President Donald Oh.
- 36:43Speaker 2: He's always available. And especially after Joe Biden. I mean,
- 36:47Speaker 2: after having a guy that only would talk to selective
- 36:53Speaker 2: reporters and would have the questions, you would know the
- 36:55Speaker 2: questions that are going and the answers were written for
- 36:58Speaker 2: him to go through that. And now go to a
- 37:01Speaker 2: guy that'll talk about anything, anything, anything you throw at him.
- 37:05Speaker 2: He'll talk about and he has an opinion about, and
- 37:08Speaker 2: he talks. Going to the plane, he talks going and
- 37:10Speaker 2: going off the plane, he talks while he's in the plane.
- 37:13Speaker 2: He talks every time he meets with a foreign leader.
- 37:16Speaker 2: It really is incredible.
- 37:19Speaker 1: Journalists cannot We'll be talking to w or correspondent in
- 37:24Speaker 1: the eight o'clock hour, who's up in Alashka. But the
- 37:27Speaker 1: point being is man he gives more answers and more
- 37:32Speaker 1: impromptu and scheduled press conferences, and I think all the
- 37:35Speaker 1: other combined presidents in my lifetime.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Because he was rare. And even the reporters he doesn't like.
- 37:41Speaker 2: He lets them talk, but then he'll go after them, like, well,
- 37:45Speaker 2: this poor woman, quiet.
- 37:49Speaker 9: Quiet, you're very disrespectful in front of this young man. Okay,
- 37:54Speaker 9: don't you find her disrespectful?
- 37:56Speaker 2: That's the lifeguard city. Next time, who are you with.
- 38:00Speaker 9: Fake news?
- 38:01Speaker 6: You're fake news.
- 38:03Speaker 9: You're a loud, you're a loud, boisterous person.
- 38:06Speaker 14: You're fake news.
- 38:07Speaker 9: Be quiet, be quiet, be quiet. You're a fake reporter,
- 38:12Speaker 9: and you report fake news.
- 38:15Speaker 1: And yet the next time it's like that never happened.
- 38:18Speaker 1: I answered the person's question, Well.
- 38:20Speaker 2: Remember Biden when he called Steve Doocy from Fox News
- 38:26Speaker 2: a dumb sob. Yes, he was caught on Mike saying that.
- 38:30Speaker 1: Now, remember I've been warning you about Oshkoff. He's a
- 38:33Speaker 1: riser out there in Georgia. Yeah, us Off. He's way
- 38:37Speaker 1: ahead of his Democratic competitor, and the Democrats are saying, man,
- 38:41Speaker 1: this guy has presidential timber. You know, Trump is paying
- 38:45Speaker 1: attention because that race is not close in the polls.
- 38:48Speaker 12: Now.
- 38:48Speaker 2: It's funny. You know, we saw a poll just about
- 38:52Speaker 2: a week ago and I was saying, oh, look at
- 38:54Speaker 2: this us Off is on the poll like they're now
- 38:56Speaker 2: polling him in the presidential polls, and he's doing fairly well.
- 39:02Speaker 2: And then I heard this yesterday when he spoke, and
- 39:04Speaker 2: I thought, oh, oh, he's running for president. There's no
- 39:06Speaker 2: question he's running for president.
- 39:08Speaker 17: And while the sailors on the Lincoln fight his war,
- 39:13Speaker 17: while he fruitlessly drains our munitions and oil reserves, the
- 39:18Speaker 17: president sleeps through his meetings.
- 39:23Speaker 1: He golfs and trade stocks. See, he doesn't want to
- 39:27Speaker 1: do the job.
- 39:30Speaker 17: He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie
- 39:33Speaker 17: on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir
- 39:36Speaker 17: of Qatar.
- 39:39Speaker 2: It was every cheap shot he possibly could have made
- 39:41Speaker 2: in thirty seconds.
- 39:42Speaker 1: Wait to the crowd.
- 39:44Speaker 2: Yeah, the Natalie thing is because he has an aide
- 39:46Speaker 2: that's attractive, that's always with him. And now now the
- 39:49Speaker 2: Democrats are jumping all over that.
- 39:51Speaker 1: But it got true. We exempt our own to Natalie.
- 39:55Speaker 1: They were not being mentioned No, they weren't there.
- 39:58Speaker 2: Natalie's everywhere.
- 40:00Speaker 3: What's going on?
- 40:02Speaker 2: But Trump took notice.
- 40:04Speaker 9: You mean pee wee herman, pee wee herman.
- 40:07Speaker 3: Look a lot.
- 40:08Speaker 9: No, I would much rather do other things. It's say,
- 40:12Speaker 9: we're building a great facility here.
- 40:14Speaker 2: If that start talking about the ballroom. By the way,
- 40:16Speaker 2: yesterday talked about the ballroom all a lot. Remember I
- 40:19Speaker 2: told you weeks ago, I said, look at this guy
- 40:21Speaker 2: ass Off. I've been looking at his speeches a lot
- 40:24Speaker 2: different than when he first ran and he barely won election.
- 40:27Speaker 2: Remember when Trump went down there after his election and
- 40:30Speaker 2: he campaigned for the two Republicans and they both lost.
- 40:33Speaker 1: The other guy to war knock. But this guy ass Off,
- 40:37Speaker 1: there's no doubt they're glooming him to be a presidential candidate.
- 40:41Speaker 2: And the big reason is because he won in Georgia
- 40:45Speaker 2: and now he's going to win reelection. It looks like
- 40:48Speaker 2: by double digits, and not just against you know, somebody
- 40:52Speaker 2: that just has the honor of running and they know
- 40:55Speaker 2: he's going to get killed. He's running against Mike Collins.
- 40:58Speaker 2: Mike Collins is very well known in Georgia, has been
- 41:01Speaker 2: a congressman for a long time. So this is a
- 41:04Speaker 2: substantial person running against him, and he's winning by double
- 41:08Speaker 2: digits according to the polls. We'll see what happens at
- 41:11Speaker 2: the end. But and this is down South Georgia. How
- 41:14Speaker 2: long have they been Republican? I mean now they have
- 41:16Speaker 2: two Democratic senators.
- 41:18Speaker 1: Well, you know, if you're on Trump's radar screen, your
- 41:22Speaker 1: prime time Yeah, so now he's forever. How come he
- 41:26Speaker 1: never goes after me? How come he never attest me? Well,
- 41:29Speaker 1: now osof is going to use this and say, you see,
- 41:32Speaker 1: I'm prime time here.
- 41:33Speaker 2: And speaking of the ballroom, he did comment on that too.
- 41:37Speaker 2: Asoff talked about the ballroom, He's commented on it, and
- 41:40Speaker 2: Donald Trump says, well, if you don't like the ballroom,
- 41:43Speaker 2: there's something wrong with you.
- 41:44Speaker 9: The people that are opposing the ballroom are people that,
- 41:48Speaker 9: in my opinion, are very disloyal to our country, very
- 41:51Speaker 9: very disloyal to our country. And I think we're doing
- 41:55Speaker 9: very well, we're way ahead of schedule.
- 41:57Speaker 1: Well, I guess that's me. I'm opposed to this ball room.
- 41:59Speaker 2: Why, I mean, even past presidents, apparently Obama, if you've
- 42:03Speaker 2: never heard anything from him, he's been telling people, oh, yeah,
- 42:06Speaker 2: we need a ballroom.
- 42:08Speaker 1: But I'm opposed to. It doesn't mean I'm disloyal, though,
- 42:11Speaker 1: you see that was an extreme position.
- 42:12Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean I think the ballroom was absolutely needed.
- 42:16Speaker 2: It was ridiculous to have huge ceremonies out in the
- 42:18Speaker 2: mud in the rose garden.
- 42:19Speaker 1: You know what it is. It may well be I
- 42:22Speaker 1: got a blank spot in my head. I'm a pretty
- 42:25Speaker 1: good dancer, but I never took ballroom dancing. So you
- 42:28Speaker 1: mentioned ballroom to me. I said, man, I can't do
- 42:31Speaker 1: the waltz. I can't do the foxtrot. I never learned
- 42:35Speaker 1: how to do that. Yeah, Natalie, it's true. People will say, hey,
- 42:38Speaker 1: you want to do a waltz. I said, believe it
- 42:40Speaker 1: or not, I don't know how to do a waltz
- 42:41Speaker 1: or a fox trotter, any of that. Great ballroom dancing.
- 42:44Speaker 1: A lot of Polish people do ballroom dancing a lot
- 42:47Speaker 1: of other people, and.
- 42:47Speaker 5: They're really good at Stare Studios.
- 42:50Speaker 1: Oh, Greg, we could get your membership. Kelly. Remember I'm
- 42:54Speaker 1: singing in the rain.
- 42:57Speaker 2: Amazing.
- 42:58Speaker 5: I'd love to see you singing in the rain on
- 43:00Speaker 5: the light pole.
- 43:01Speaker 2: Yeah, Gene, Kelly was that was out in the rain.
- 43:04Speaker 2: That wasn't in a ballroom.
- 43:06Speaker 1: No, but he was a Great Ballroom Dange. But right,
- 43:08Speaker 1: fred Estere academies where they teach you, I could have
- 43:11Speaker 1: easily have gone there. I never did, Boyt. I got
- 43:14Speaker 1: to add that to my bucket list.
- 43:16Speaker 2: All right. Netty talked about the USS Lincoln. Remember there
- 43:20Speaker 2: were all these reports that the plumbing wasn't working, that
- 43:23Speaker 2: somebody tried to jump overboards. I will say, since then,
- 43:28Speaker 2: we have talked to a lot of people from the ship.
- 43:31Speaker 2: I haven't, but the media has and have talked to
- 43:34Speaker 2: a lot of admirals and people that visited the ship.
- 43:36Speaker 2: Apparently everything was overblown, and so Donald Trump talked about that.
- 43:40Speaker 9: It was at a big group and he happened to
- 43:42Speaker 9: be an admiral retired. He said, I've been on ships
- 43:45Speaker 9: are out there much longer than that, sir, And I
- 43:47Speaker 9: know people on the Lincoln. They say it's beautifully maintained
- 43:51Speaker 9: and beautifully taken care of. And other people went out
- 43:54Speaker 9: and they found out to be true. It was fake
- 43:56Speaker 9: news reporting from CNN.
- 43:58Speaker 2: Yeah, the person apparently that it did go overboard didn't
- 44:01Speaker 2: try to go overboard. There was a person that went
- 44:03Speaker 2: overboard and they saved him. That it had nothing to
- 44:05Speaker 2: do with what was going on on the ship at
- 44:08Speaker 2: the time he accidentally fell overboard. There have been a
- 44:11Speaker 2: lot of people now on the ship that said, look,
- 44:14Speaker 2: we didn't have these problems were overblown. Remember, the original
- 44:18Speaker 2: reporting was from families of the people that were.
- 44:21Speaker 1: Stars and Stripes, not CNN. So right, mister President, you
- 44:25Speaker 1: want to blame CNN, Why don't you blame Stars and Stripes.
- 44:28Speaker 1: You wouldn't dare blame Stars and Stripes because that's an
- 44:31Speaker 1: outlet for the military and for family members.
- 44:34Speaker 2: Yeah, there was some people that didn't go with the story,
- 44:37Speaker 2: and because it was second, third, fourth hand all the time.
- 44:42Speaker 2: And so now that people have visited the ship, they're
- 44:45Speaker 2: finding out that a lot of the stuff was overblown.
- 44:47Speaker 2: I guess there was a time when they were supposed
- 44:50Speaker 2: to get supplies and they didn't on time, but they
- 44:52Speaker 2: did show up. And so Straits of Hormuz. Of course,
- 44:56Speaker 2: he always talks about that. Always asked a question.
- 44:58Speaker 9: We cantrol it with the blockade. We have a blockade.
- 45:02Speaker 9: We control it with the blockade. And I like the
- 45:06Speaker 9: idea of declaring of the territory.
- 45:08Speaker 2: Yeah, he once declared an American territory.
- 45:10Speaker 1: There is nobody in America who wants to declare the
- 45:13Speaker 1: straits of her moose an American territory. Come on, I mean,
- 45:17Speaker 1: that's ridiculous. And by the way, there's infighting going on.
- 45:21Speaker 1: His own vice president in dvance was trying to say, hey, look,
- 45:25Speaker 1: I understand Americans are concerned about the price of gas
- 45:28Speaker 1: and natural gas as we go into the mid term elections.
- 45:33Speaker 1: That's one of the goals he is to clear up
- 45:36Speaker 1: that straits of her moves and Trump immediately slapped down
- 45:39Speaker 1: his vice president on his truth, so she'll say, no,
- 45:42Speaker 1: the number one goal is Iran not having a nuclear weapon,
- 45:46Speaker 1: and this coming at the same time that he wants
- 45:49Speaker 1: to renew his personal relationship with the evil seed of
- 45:54Speaker 1: Kim Jung mentally ill behind the Rice Kate curtain of
- 45:57Speaker 1: North Korea. Remember he had three meetings with him for
- 46:00Speaker 1: president ever to meet with him directly to try to
- 46:02Speaker 1: encourage him you don't need nuclear weapons. Well, obviously four
- 46:06Speaker 1: years of Joe Biden in between, he now has sixty nukes,
- 46:11Speaker 1: sixty nukes with missiles to deliver them, and nobody messes
- 46:15Speaker 1: with North Korea now because they know they got a newke.
- 46:17Speaker 1: That's he Ron's goal getting a nuke and ain't nobody's
- 46:20Speaker 1: going to mess with us. Yeah.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Now, the reason that he is cozied up to North Korea,
- 46:25Speaker 2: even more so in the last few days, and he's
- 46:27Speaker 2: even talked about another visit, is because the president of
- 46:32Speaker 2: South Korea ticked him off, much like a lot of
- 46:34Speaker 2: the people in NATO ticked them off.
- 46:36Speaker 9: But I called him, I said, would you like to
- 46:38Speaker 9: give us a little hand? We don't need help with Ran,
- 46:40Speaker 9: but if you'd like give us a head with Arran.
- 46:43Speaker 9: He said no, thanks, And I said, where we have
- 46:46Speaker 9: thirty nine thousand soldiers over there guarding you from Kim
- 46:51Speaker 9: Jong un. You're next door neighbor, and you're not going
- 46:55Speaker 9: to help us on a very easy military operation in Iran.
- 47:00Speaker 9: That's strange.
- 47:01Speaker 2: That's not the end of that, oh no.
- 47:03Speaker 1: And by the way, Samsung huge, like the biggest company
- 47:07Speaker 1: in the world for manufacturing electronic products, had promised that
- 47:12Speaker 1: they would start developing plants in the United States, you know,
- 47:16Speaker 1: outsource a lot of their development. Apparently that didn't happen
- 47:20Speaker 1: as quickly as the president. So South Korea, you're pretty
- 47:25Speaker 1: much on your own when it comes to the evil
- 47:28Speaker 1: seed of Kim Jung Mentally, he's going to have another
- 47:30Speaker 1: summit with him. You know that's going to happen.
- 47:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he probably will. I think it's a
- 47:34Speaker 2: smart thing. I think it's a smart thing to meet
- 47:36Speaker 2: with your enemies, haven't.
- 47:37Speaker 1: I said he should try to do that with Iran
- 47:40Speaker 1: and that might bring into a thing.
- 47:42Speaker 2: He said he would. He said he would, he would.
- 47:43Speaker 2: He would have a meeting with a round if they'd
- 47:45Speaker 2: meet with him.
- 47:46Speaker 1: Full speed ahead. He should determine. And people don't want
- 47:49Speaker 1: to go my route to meet with them in Tehran,
- 47:51Speaker 1: I get it. But somewhere else in the Middle East. Boy,
- 47:54Speaker 1: I think that could be a real icebreaker.
- 47:56Speaker 2: Yeah, he said he absolutely would. He said that very
- 47:59Speaker 2: early on. As a matter of fact. By the way,
- 48:01Speaker 2: just real quick, he did mention the flock cameras. Somebody
- 48:04Speaker 2: brought it up. Actually Reagan Reese, who was a friend
- 48:06Speaker 2: of the show, brought it up, and he said, we're
- 48:09Speaker 2: looking into it. There's a study going on right now.
- 48:12Speaker 2: Should have something at about a week and coming up
- 48:16Speaker 2: there there's a big fight going on on gratuity versus tips.
- 48:21Speaker 2: I thought they were the exact same thing. We'll tell
- 48:24Speaker 2: you what the difference is and what the fight is
- 48:27Speaker 2: coming up. Plus a chance to see journey at age
- 48:29Speaker 2: twenty five. And now I want to talk to you
- 48:32Speaker 2: more about Life Back. I could talk about life Back
- 48:35Speaker 2: all day because it simply saves lives. And there are
- 48:40Speaker 2: people I think that we all know that have choked
- 48:45Speaker 2: at some unexpected time, at Thanksgiving dinner, at a kid's
- 48:48Speaker 2: birthday party. And when you're there in that moment, sometimes
- 48:52Speaker 2: you're just figuring out what can you do because some
- 48:55Speaker 2: of the other methods just don't work. That's why we
- 48:57Speaker 2: have life Back because choking is one of the moments
- 49:01Speaker 2: that can happen to any family. It can happen to
- 49:04Speaker 2: a child, it can happen to a parent, it can
- 49:06Speaker 2: happen to a grandparent. And when it does, seconds matter.
- 49:10Speaker 2: Life Back is the first and only FDA authorized suction
- 49:14Speaker 2: anti choking device to be used for second line treatment
- 49:18Speaker 2: when recommended choking protocols have been followed without success. Did
- 49:23Speaker 2: I say FDA authorized? And here's what's remarkable. Life Back
- 49:27Speaker 2: has helped save over six thousand lives worldwide. If save families,
- 49:34Speaker 2: it's given them a second chance. Preparedness matters. Having the
- 49:39Speaker 2: right tool nearby that makes all the difference in the world.

- 49:52Speaker 2: how you can be ready when it counts. Now, Curtis
- 49:56Speaker 2: and Natalie, we've all been out right to a restaurant
- 49:59Speaker 2: where they s, especially with a large party. They'll say
- 50:02Speaker 2: gratuity included, yep, yep, And that's like eighteen to twenty
- 50:06Speaker 2: percent of the bill that you have to pay. So
- 50:09Speaker 2: it's a substantial amount of the bill. But you figure, okay,
- 50:12Speaker 2: the tips, that's it. I don't have to pay anything else.
- 50:15Speaker 2: I just paid the tip. Well, there's a woman on
- 50:18Speaker 2: TikTok and is she a waitress? Natalie, Yes, this woman's server. Yeah,
- 50:22Speaker 2: this woman a server. I'm sorry, there's always new names
- 50:26Speaker 2: for everything.
- 50:27Speaker 4: Server.
- 50:28Speaker 17: I know.
- 50:28Speaker 2: I have to I have to learn millennial. It's no
- 50:32Speaker 2: longer a waitress. It's a server. So she is saying,
- 50:37Speaker 2: even if you pay the gratuity, that's separate than the tip.
- 50:42Speaker 18: Listen, gratuity, the the server also has to pay the barback.
- 50:47Speaker 18: Who are the people who come and help clean up,
- 50:49Speaker 18: make sure the table stay clean. So when I give
- 50:53Speaker 18: somebody a receipt and they look at me and they say, oh,
- 50:55Speaker 18: gratuity is included. I say, gratuity is included, but a
- 50:57Speaker 18: tip is not.
- 50:59Speaker 1: And if you can for the tip thing, you shouldn't
- 51:01Speaker 1: be out.
- 51:02Speaker 2: All right, before I tell you what I looked up
- 51:04Speaker 2: on this, What do you think about that?
- 51:07Speaker 5: Well, I did wonder what it was, but I always
- 51:11Speaker 5: assumed it was kind of the same thing, you know, tick,
- 51:15Speaker 5: tax and tip, pratuity and tip.
- 51:17Speaker 1: I wasn't sure.
- 51:18Speaker 5: I'm a little annoyed that if I can't tip, I
- 51:20Speaker 5: shouldn't go out.
- 51:21Speaker 2: But I know, well, if you don't pay more than
- 51:24Speaker 2: the twenty percent gratuity you were just forced to pay,
- 51:28Speaker 2: then don't come to our restaurant.
- 51:30Speaker 1: Well, that lady is looking to not be employed. You
- 51:34Speaker 1: to go on on the plumber. But interesting, you know,
- 51:37Speaker 1: the bush boy they generally, I don't know if that's
- 51:39Speaker 1: politically correct anyone, the busboy is the one who cleans
- 51:43Speaker 1: up the table, comes around, sometimes cleans up while you're
- 51:46Speaker 1: eating there. You know, I'm I thought the waitress or
- 51:50Speaker 1: the waiter split the tip with the bushboy. The bush
- 51:52Speaker 1: girl absolutely correct.
- 51:54Speaker 2: My wife Don was a waitress for four years and
- 51:57Speaker 2: was excellent at it, and she said one of the
- 52:00Speaker 2: reasons they love me so much is I shared every
- 52:03Speaker 2: tip with the rest of the staff.
- 52:04Speaker 1: Now you know where it's considering an insult. And I've
- 52:07Speaker 1: found out the hard way my first trip to Japan.
- 52:10Speaker 1: No tipping. Not the cab drivers, who are the best
- 52:12Speaker 1: in the world, even better than the London cab drivers.
- 52:16Speaker 1: Restaurants in that now the prices are high, but there's
- 52:18Speaker 1: no tipping. You try to tip, they look at you
- 52:21Speaker 1: like you've insulted that.
- 52:22Speaker 9: Wow.
- 52:23Speaker 2: But to clear this up though, just in case you're
- 52:26Speaker 2: going to go out, I looked it up. When a
- 52:28Speaker 2: gratuity is included or added automatically to your bill, you
- 52:33Speaker 2: do not need to leave an extra tip, although you
- 52:37Speaker 2: can if you choose to, if it was exceptional service,
- 52:41Speaker 2: you can, but it is not a requirement, and most
- 52:44Speaker 2: restaurants will put that on there that if there is
- 52:48Speaker 2: a gratuity included, you do not need to leave a tip.
- 52:52Speaker 2: She was completely wrong. It doesn't go to the cleaning crew,
- 52:56Speaker 2: it doesn't go to everybody else in the building. It
- 52:59Speaker 2: goes to the wait staff. So she was just trying
- 53:02Speaker 2: to make some extra money. She was upset that every
- 53:05Speaker 2: once in a while she didn't get a tip because
- 53:07Speaker 2: it was already included, and she wanted some She wanted
- 53:09Speaker 2: something to put in her pocket.
- 53:10Speaker 1: Well, the worst thing in the world is and I've
- 53:12Speaker 1: seen this happen at diners. A lot of senior citizens have,
- 53:16Speaker 1: you know, very stressed income, and they can't really leave
- 53:20Speaker 1: like the twenty percent of the fifteen percent. So the
- 53:23Speaker 1: waiter or the waitress, you know, they I think they
- 53:25Speaker 1: understand they're on minimal income. But then there are others
- 53:28Speaker 1: who come in there and you can tell that they
- 53:30Speaker 1: could afford it, and they stiff them.
- 53:33Speaker 2: Yeah, when did fifteen percent become twenty percent? Everybody leaves
- 53:36Speaker 2: twenty percent now?
- 53:37Speaker 1: Yeah, it's almost like if you don't leave twenty percent,
- 53:39Speaker 1: you'll pershona on grade. People look at you.
- 53:41Speaker 2: Like why, But it used to be fifteen percent, fifteen
- 53:44Speaker 2: percent with standard, Now it's twenty percent. My wife over
- 53:46Speaker 2: tips all the time, trives me crazy. I sometimes go
- 53:50Speaker 2: back and take a five away. People know who you are.
- 53:54Speaker 2: You do not don't tell that you do that.
- 53:57Speaker 11: You know.
- 53:57Speaker 2: She's done the opposite to me. When I leave the tip,
- 54:00Speaker 2: she goes back and adds more Wow, waitress, I know, but.
- 54:05Speaker 1: She also recognizes that people are gonna know who you are,
- 54:08Speaker 1: and they don't want to be saying, well, you know
- 54:11Speaker 1: Larry Mentez, he's a real cheap skate. He throws Nichols
- 54:13Speaker 1: around like manhole co.
- 54:15Speaker 9: No.
- 54:15Speaker 2: I used to give celebrity tips, but not anymore.
- 54:19Speaker 3: That you know.
- 54:21Speaker 19: The seventh in mom is I got a good tip
- 54:24Speaker 19: on this. Let's get to some talkbacks. According to the polls?
- 54:29Speaker 19: Oh god, Mary, please stop, please stop.
- 54:32Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 54:33Speaker 2: We keep having this talk all the time. People that
- 54:36Speaker 2: don't like the Poles. You're right in some situations. Polls
- 54:40Speaker 2: don't matter. You're exactly right, and Poles have been off
- 54:44Speaker 2: horribly off. But Curtis can tell you polls are extremely
- 54:50Speaker 2: important in politics. Policy is made, candidates are chosen, money
- 54:56Speaker 2: is distributed because of polls. So to ignore what are
- 55:00Speaker 2: the polls, well, you're enjoying a big part of the story.
- 55:03Speaker 1: Made it worse. The polygrip and what's the other things? Right,
- 55:10Speaker 1: that's made it really worse because if you don't do
- 55:13Speaker 1: well on those people are not going to contribute to
- 55:16Speaker 1: your campaign.
- 55:16Speaker 2: They'll look at that first before they'll look at the polls.
- 55:19Speaker 2: It's amazing, isn't it. That's that's taken over the betting
- 55:22Speaker 2: sites it's a prediction site. Remember that. Yeah, but it's
- 55:25Speaker 2: not betting. It's a prediction so sure is Now, let's
- 55:28Speaker 2: get to Daria Alvinger with the seven thirty.
- 55:30Speaker 11: News area running guys clearing today with a high of
- 55:32Speaker 11: eighty four degrees. New Jersey is among a group of
- 55:35Speaker 11: states suing Meta in what could be a landmark case
- 55:38Speaker 11: on social media. It accuses a company of knowingly making
- 55:42Speaker 11: platforms like Instagram addictive to kids and teenagers.
- 55:45Speaker 20: In court filings, Meta estimates it could be forced to
- 55:47Speaker 20: pay damages up to one point four trillion dollars if
- 55:51Speaker 20: it loses this case, though Judge Yvonne Gonzales Rogers has
- 55:54Speaker 20: called that number unreasonable. According to the outlet Law three sixty,
- 55:58Speaker 20: Meta recently revealed it'spent two two point four billion dollars
- 56:01Speaker 20: on legal expenses in the second quarter of twenty twenty
- 56:04Speaker 20: six alone, and while that's relatively small potatoes for such
- 56:07Speaker 20: a large company, it could add up with hundreds of
- 56:09Speaker 20: similar cases expected to go to trial in the coming months.
- 56:12Speaker 20: Mike Debuski, ABC News.
- 56:14Speaker 11: Us on Boyd Jared Kushner says Gaza will not be
- 56:16Speaker 11: rebuilt until Hamas gives up its weapons. He says if
- 56:20Speaker 11: Hamas won't, it would be clear that they're not serious
- 56:22Speaker 11: about peace. It's called the ABC tax Deduction, but it's
- 56:26Speaker 11: costing New Jersey nearly one hundred and ninety Let let's
- 56:29Speaker 11: try that again, nearly one hundred ninety million dollars a year.
- 56:33Speaker 21: It was created to help business owners offset losses, but
- 56:37Speaker 21: a new report by the New Jersey Policy Perspective shows
- 56:40Speaker 21: this deduction disproportionately benefits millionaires. Researchers say filers who earn
- 56:45Speaker 21: more than two and a half million dollars a year
- 56:48Speaker 21: claim more in ABC deduction benefits than all households in
- 56:52Speaker 21: New Jersey earning less than five hundred thousand dollars a
- 56:55Speaker 21: year combined. Peter Chen, one of the Policy Perspective researchers,
- 56:59Speaker 21: says the deduction was never meant to be a tax
- 57:02Speaker 21: shelter for millionaires, claiming that's what it's become. Sarah le
- 57:06Speaker 21: Kessler War News.
- 57:08Speaker 11: Over a dozen people, including a man from Long Island,
- 57:11Speaker 11: are facing charges. They're accused of running a cocaine ring
- 57:14Speaker 11: out of two Penn State University fraternity houses. The father
- 57:18Speaker 11: of a students also charged. The school says it is
- 57:20Speaker 11: cooperating in the investigation. Well, it is another big primary
- 57:24Speaker 11: day with House and Senate races in Florida, Alaska, and Wyoming.
- 57:28Speaker 11: There's also a special election in California to fill the
- 57:31Speaker 11: remainder of Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell's term. The Mets beat
- 57:35Speaker 11: San Diego two to one. The Yankees had the night off.

- 57:46Speaker 1: who you are out there, you're getting club at morning,
- 57:48Speaker 1: noon and night. Your phone is blowing up. The spam,
- 57:51Speaker 1: cole spam, text, your parents tell you about it, the
- 57:55Speaker 1: elderly tell you about it. What should I do? And
- 57:59Speaker 1: you wonder how can you get rid of all that?
- 58:00Speaker 1: And how is it they get all this personal information? Well,
- 58:03Speaker 1: it's through data brokers and they're doing it legally. They're
- 58:06Speaker 1: bundling your personal information as if they got it at
- 58:09Speaker 1: a clearance sale. Your phone number, home address, email, family members,
- 58:14Speaker 1: political affiliations that you've had, and even where you do
- 58:16Speaker 1: your banking and financing. Those scammers are blowing up your
- 58:20Speaker 1: phone and it didn't get They didn't get lucky. They
- 58:23Speaker 1: had access to the information. And now you've got to
- 58:26Speaker 1: build a firewall the way I've done with incognitate. Get
- 58:28Speaker 1: a pet and pen write it down because you want
- 58:30Speaker 1: to share this information with family and friends who likewise

- 59:18Speaker 1: Is that so Larry interesting. The other day, Vice President
- 59:23Speaker 1: in Vance was sort of appealing to fellow Republicans. Obviously
- 59:28Speaker 1: a lot of people think that the race to become
- 59:30Speaker 1: the next president at the Republican nomination will be between
- 59:34Speaker 1: him and Secretary of State Rubio. You never know if
- 59:37Speaker 1: anybody else emerges, but right now that's what it's looking like.
- 59:41Speaker 1: And I think he's trying to define himself as the
- 59:44Speaker 1: candidate who has better contact amongst young men, young women
- 59:50Speaker 1: who lean right. That was so important to the victory
- 59:53Speaker 1: of Donald Trump in twenty twenty four, especially amongst gen
- 59:57Speaker 1: Z men. He was able to actually win that vote.
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: A lot of people were surprised because they put a
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: tremendous focus. Obviously, when Charlie Kirk was alive, Turning Point
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: USA very strong. They've had some problems since his assassination
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: and execution, but he's always been close to them. So
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: he was basically telling his Republicans, don't condemn these young
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: people who start sort of being attracted by socialism. Understand
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: what it is that is bringing them on board.
- 1:00:30Speaker 22: The Democrat Party has become run by the universities and
- 1:00:34Speaker 22: by the professors. This is not working class union Democrats.
- 1:00:38Speaker 22: This is not socially conservative people who just want a
- 1:00:40Speaker 22: fair shake at life. This is fundamentally a view that
- 1:00:44Speaker 22: the United States is an evil country that must be
- 1:00:47Speaker 22: dismantled from the ground and then built back up.
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: That's communism at its core. That is certainly true, and
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: there are some people on campuses who are like that,
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: but that's not necessarily socialism. So Vice President in Vance
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: then made the appeal to members of the GOP to
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: be a little more understanding. Oh you don't have that, okay,
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: all right, I show you fining to that.
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: I found it, just couldn't get it cut in time.
- 1:01:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:01:15Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: It was with Will Kine when he talked about this.
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: Yeah, so let me basically explain to everybody what this is.
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: Vice President Vance, because of his working with young people,
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: was saying my warning to fellow Republicans would be, if
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: we don't get this right, don't blame young people for
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: being sympathetic to socialism. We've got to blame ourselves. You
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: don't stop socialism by throwing slogans at people about the
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: free market. You've stopped socialism by making people's lives better.
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: And I concur with that. But I also have a
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: remedy since I've spoken at so many college campuses, especially
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: ever since I was hooked up with you by Tom Cutty,
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: and we coabitated and consummated our relationship, Larry, but I
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: want to use our gen Z guy here, Chris as
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: an example, Chris, did you go to college university? I did? Yes,
- 1:02:11Speaker 1: all right, which one was it? I went to Seaton Hall. Wow,
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: Seaton Hall. That's that's Natalie's favorite college, right, Natalie, we're
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: both alumni. Yes, Oh my god, that's right. So this
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: is what I'm suggesting, having seen young men and young
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: women of your age just searching, searching, and obviously socialism
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: is very popular on some of the campuses. Remember Larry,
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: how we had there for a while was very much
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: in vogue. The drag queen reading hour. Get to the question.
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: But I'm going to suggest, and everybody was upset drag
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: queen reading out. Now you don't hear about it anymore,
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: I would suggest because most people don't know that capitalism
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: was created in seventeen seventy six, and it wasn't here
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: in the United States. It was in Scotland. By Adam.
- 1:03:03Speaker 1: I'm taking notes.
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: There's a question near the end of it.
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: Quite quite the eccentric, but can you imagine if the
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: four K girls came in? Who are the biggest capitalist
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: in America? The Kardashians, Chris Courtney, Kim Chloe. You think
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: a lot of young people would be paying attention to
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: them as they read from Adam Smith.
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: Probably, yeah, of course that is that is the dogma,
- 1:03:29Speaker 2: after all that the question was three paragraphs, he said. Probably.
- 1:03:34Speaker 6: He just asked if I'd pay attention to the Kardashians
- 1:03:36Speaker 6: that they were teaching me about capitalizing.
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: They are talking all around socialism without talking about how
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: horrible this is. But we're taking it way too seriously
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: right now. It is a political movement that's going to die.
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: It's a political movie that's going to die.
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: It's going to die American history.
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: No, you say that, you think FDR communists, So can
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: we stay in this century at least?
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: No, because he's three.
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: You always want to ignore history. No, I don't want
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: to ignore it. There's just so many important things going
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: on today, and we go back to the past and
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: then we don't have time to talk about what's going
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: on right now. And this, what's going on right now
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: with socialism is unique.
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: It's unique.
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: It's a growing socialism that wants to get rid of
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: the Senate. They want to get rid of the Supreme Court,
- 1:04:33Speaker 2: they want to get rid of the Electoral College, they
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: want to get rid of police. This is dangerous what's
- 1:04:38Speaker 2: happening right now. But it's only dangerous in theory, it's
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: not dangerous in reality.
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: So who is going to actually preach about the alternative capitalism?
- 1:04:50Speaker 2: Everybody is, even Democrats are right now. Democrats are. By
- 1:04:53Speaker 2: the way, FDR, who you said was a socialist, used, yes,
- 1:04:57Speaker 2: some socialist policies to bring back capitalism. He had to
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: bring back the country. There's no historians don't agree with you.
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: Historians there is You're I am you thinker you are,
- 1:05:12Speaker 2: except if you go online. I tell people right now,
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: go to AI online look up as if the art
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: socialists disagree with that. Most historians absolutely disagree with you.
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: And he was not a socialist. And so the rise
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: of socialism right now is not even really socialism.
- 1:05:31Speaker 11: I finish.
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: Can I just finish the place he spoke for like
- 1:05:35Speaker 2: ten minutes? Let me just finish. Democratic socialism is now
- 1:05:40Speaker 2: just a a malignant part of the Democratic Party that
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: they are trying to get rid of, and the Republicans
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: also are using it as a political tool to win elections.
- 1:05:53Speaker 2: That's all it is right now.
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: Can I ask you a question, what's the last college
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: group you spoke to?
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: Oh?
- 1:05:58Speaker 2: God, that means anything, yeh. College kids live with the.
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: Young people adhering to socialism.
- 1:06:05Speaker 2: Now and every single day, you just have speak at
- 1:06:09Speaker 2: them speakers who are going to attract them to capitalism.
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: Lighting up a bit here, we're not talking about you know,
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: you have a heart attack. I'm light.
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: I'm having a heart attack because you're pushing this whole
- 1:06:22Speaker 2: thing of socialism.
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: That pushing it. I'm telling you how to veer young
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: people away from it by having speakers who are capitalists
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: who have attracted their attention. And don't tell me the
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: Kardashians haven't had an effect on an entire generation. They
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: are uber capitalists.
- 1:06:38Speaker 2: Oh, I don't care about the Kardashians at all. As
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: a matter of fact, I could go through shows without
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: ever bringing them up, years without there.
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: Talking about young people.
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: Young people follow the Kardashians. Now, the young people, I
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: mean young people? Did I think they've grown up a lot?
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: I personally don't, but I do think some they are
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: quite popular.
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: So among what group now?
- 1:07:00Speaker 6: I think I think older older gen zers and younger
- 1:07:05Speaker 6: millennials between like between like twenty five to like thirty
- 1:07:09Speaker 6: five forty, you would probably they're their key market.
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: They are super capitalists right in every quesse of course,
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: so they've done quite well. They've had an impact on
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: a whole generation. Let them talk about their benefits of capitalists.
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: And by the way, when you say look at you're
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: getting all upset. I only get upset because I'm trying
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: to talk and you keep talking over me. That's why
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: I get upset. So I have to talk louder and
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: go loud. If I'm an expert on a sub you're not,
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: though you're not. I talked to college groups.
- 1:07:36Speaker 2: That doesn't make you college groups, that doesn't I raised
- 1:07:40Speaker 2: two kids, I would say kids in college.
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: I talked to college every single credentials to your credentials
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: in this area. And I'm suggesting you want to confuse
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: capitalism to copep with socialism, you do it with celebrities
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: who benefited from capitalism, because that's what the gen zs
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: have grown up with.
- 1:07:58Speaker 2: In a celebrity court. It's going to die on its
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: own vines. Well it's not dying, yes it is. Oh,
- 1:08:03Speaker 2: it's it is right now. Look at Michigan. No, they
- 1:08:06Speaker 2: don't want it.
- 1:08:06Speaker 3: Really.
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: The only places, the only places where it is it's
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: not happening. You keep thinking that it's gonna die. Okay,
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: you think he's gonna wine. Somebody that loves polls like
- 1:08:20Speaker 2: you thinks he's gonna win. It's ridiculous. Anyway, when we
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: come back, Natalie miglior, you can be the peacekeeper here.
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: She's going to be talking about shoplifting. Yes, thank you.

- 1:09:25Speaker 2: and Washington Correspondent. How about this with iHeart sending him
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: to Alaska. That's that's damn impressive.
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: Cruise to fair match, and you know, everybody goes up
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: there on a couch. Don't want to drive to Alaska.
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: I've been on two cruises to Alaska and through radio stations.
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: I've gone on two cruises and took my family. I
- 1:09:46Speaker 2: want to go back. It's gorgeous. Oh it's It was
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: some of the best trips I ever had, were going
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: up to Alaska. But it is primary day. It's also
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: in Florida, and it's also in Idaho. The big race
- 1:09:58Speaker 2: in Alaska that we're gonna be talking to Decker about
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: is Dan Sullivan. All of the sudden, Alaska seems like
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: it might be in play, which is bad news for
- 1:10:08Speaker 2: the Republicans because they normally get it. I know, when
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: you think about Alaska, you probably think about Lisa Murkowski
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: because she's been there longer and she's been in the news.
- 1:10:17Speaker 2: But Dan Sullivan's the new guy, and he's gonna be
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: up for reelection for the first time. Everybody thought it
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: was going to be easy. Apparently it may not be
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: as easy.
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: Curtis. Yeah, And they have those jungle primaries over there
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: in which you can have like a dozen you canna
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: have fifteen sixteen people. And the big issue there that
- 1:10:38Speaker 1: keeps that state afloat and keeps people really attuned to
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: their politics is the rebate check they get from the
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: oil and natural gas resources that are sold from Alaska
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: that every citizen of Alaska is capable of receiving. You know,
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: you don't really see that anywhere else. You know, Jersey,
- 1:10:59Speaker 1: you have a reb on your property tax. But that's
- 1:11:01Speaker 1: your money to begin with. You know, whoever is the
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: governor acts like it's they're giving you money. They signed
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: the check. One, it's really your money to begin with
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: in Alaska, it really is. It's a percentage of the
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: sales of natural gas and petroleum products that then can
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: come right back into your pocket. And boy, if you're
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: running for office, stats like running in Iowa, you better
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: be promoting ethanol. You better be drinking ethanol, you better
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: be promoting maintaining that that rebate because that's what Alaskans
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: are depending on because their price is so much higher
- 1:11:34Speaker 1: because of the difficulty in transporting products there and getting
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: products into Alaska and trucking them over a lot of
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: that huge land mass in order to get them into
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: stores and get them into your home.
- 1:11:47Speaker 2: I'll tell you what this is. The other election that
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: everything's going to be looking at today in the primary,
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: is is Florida because remember they redistricted. Yes, and there
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: are several Democratic Congressmen who are vulnerable, some whose name
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: if you follow politics, whose name you would know, including
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: Jared Moskowitz. He is now vulnerable because his district has
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: been redistrict. And the always popular Debbie Wasserman Schultz. And
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: I said that kiddingly because she has been vilified if
- 1:12:18Speaker 2: you noticed, the Democratic Party has even pushed her to
- 1:12:21Speaker 2: the side. Yes, they rarely see her anymore, but they
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: those two are in trouble. They're also looking at governor
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: and senator in the state of Florida, and the other
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: one is Wyoming and then Idaho, and so they don't
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: get as much coverage. Florida is going to be one
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: to look at because there's going to be several Republican
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: seats picked up in Florida. If the Republicans hold on
- 1:12:47Speaker 2: to the House, it's going to be because of Florida.
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say so, just like the last time.
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: Remember when Zelden was running for governor against Hokol. The
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: thing he brought to the table was all those new
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: Republicans got elected into Congress who gave the Republicans the
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: Speaker of the House, without which they wouldn't have had it.
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: You know, you had Lawler in Rockland County, you had
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: others who were there on Long Island and the mid
- 1:13:12Speaker 1: Hutchon Valley, without which the Republicans would not be in
- 1:13:15Speaker 1: the majority, and obviously Johnson would not be the Speaker
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: of the House.
- 1:13:19Speaker 3: Now.
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: Yeah, so we're nearing the end of primary season. It's
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: all going to get really serious come September. But right
- 1:13:26Speaker 2: now we do have we're getting come on the phone
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: at the second John Decker WOR, White House and Washington Correspondent.
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: He is the host of the podcast The White House
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: Briefing Room with John Decker that can be found on
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: the iHeartRadio app. And a lot of the attention in
- 1:13:41Speaker 2: this primary is on the Republicans running because and listen,
- 1:13:47Speaker 2: Donald Trump and the Republicans are saying this was a
- 1:13:49Speaker 2: dirty trick, because well, I'll let John Decker explain it himself.
- 1:13:53Speaker 2: John Decker, w R. White House and Washington Correspondent. Now
- 1:13:58Speaker 2: in Alaska, we were just talking about the primary a
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: little bit, John, and I was getting to the point
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: where the man running against Dan Sullivan in the Republican
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: primary the incumbent senator. It's a pretty fascinating race for
- 1:14:13Speaker 2: the reason of the other guy's name.
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: Well, it's Dan Sullivan.
- 1:14:18Speaker 4: So a constituent of Senator Dan Sullivan has entered the race.
- 1:14:22Speaker 4: His name is Dan Sullivan.
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: He is on the ballot.
- 1:14:26Speaker 4: All that you need to run for the US Senate
- 1:14:29Speaker 4: in Alaska is one hundred dollars and you enter the
- 1:14:33Speaker 4: Senate race. Listen to this. You don't even need to
- 1:14:36Speaker 4: be a resident of the state of Alaska. The rule
- 1:14:39Speaker 4: is is that if you win your primary, win the election,
- 1:14:43Speaker 4: you just have to move to Alaska to represent the state.
- 1:14:46Speaker 4: Pretty remarkable. So you have five people running actually in
- 1:14:49Speaker 4: this race who are not even residents of Alaska. As
- 1:14:53Speaker 4: for Dan Sullivan, who's not a US Senator, he is
- 1:14:56Speaker 4: a resident. He's never run for office before, and it's
- 1:15:00Speaker 4: gotten under the skin of the senator named Dan Sullivan.
- 1:15:05Speaker 1: So let me ask you this with all of that
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: going on, because I know that Alaska leads in this
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: area of these jungle primaries where multiple candidates can jump on,
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: how does the person going to file their ballot, whether
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: it's a mail in ballot, because some in Alaska you know,
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: they can't get to their polling locations because where they are.
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: If they go to the polling location, how do they
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: differentiate Is it a nonpartisan election or do they actually
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: put D or R next to them or unaffiliated?
- 1:15:40Speaker 4: It's a non partisan election. And the way this primary
- 1:15:43Speaker 4: works is the top four finishers, the top four vote getters,
- 1:15:48Speaker 4: they move on to the general elections. So it could be,
- 1:15:50Speaker 4: you know, to Republicans to Democrats. The Democrat who is
- 1:15:54Speaker 4: the leading front runner to make it to the general
- 1:15:57Speaker 4: election is a former congoman representing all of Alaska. Her
- 1:16:02Speaker 4: name is Mary Pultola, and she has one statewide twice before.
- 1:16:07Speaker 4: There are some polls that actually have her up by
- 1:16:10Speaker 4: a few points over Senator Dan Sullivan. So a lot
- 1:16:14Speaker 4: of money, a lot of money is pouring into this race.
- 1:16:17Speaker 4: I was at an event with Senator Dan Sullivan last night.
- 1:16:21Speaker 4: Interviewed the senator. I've interviewed him before, and he recognizes
- 1:16:25Speaker 4: that this is a tough environment for a Republican incumbent because,
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: as you know, with midterm elections, the party in power
- 1:16:34Speaker 4: typically faces some headwinds, and he's facing some headwinds. Even
- 1:16:38Speaker 4: though President Trump won this state by thirteen points in
- 1:16:42Speaker 4: twenty twenty four.
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: Over Kamala Harris.
- 1:16:45Speaker 2: Yeah, it's considered a Republican stronghold. You're right. The political
- 1:16:50Speaker 2: climate right now is helping the Democrats more than it's
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: helping the Republicans, and that is normally the case. Whoever's
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: not out of the White House as a better chance
- 1:17:00Speaker 2: in the mid terms. But there are other factors going
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: on there, including the way that the elections are held.
- 1:17:06Speaker 2: As you explained a second ago, there's a strategy behind that.
- 1:17:10Speaker 4: Well, there is a strategy, so that I've explained the
- 1:17:13Speaker 4: way that the primary works. Top four vote getters move
- 1:17:16Speaker 4: on to the general. The general works differently, and you're
- 1:17:19Speaker 4: familiar with that because of New York City. It's ranked
- 1:17:22Speaker 4: choice voting, so you're familiar because that's the way your
- 1:17:25Speaker 4: mayor was chosen. That's the way the next Senator of
- 1:17:28Speaker 4: Alaska will be chosen. So that's something that Senator Stullivan
- 1:17:33Speaker 4: and others are well aware of. They just first want
- 1:17:35Speaker 4: to make it to the next round, to the general election,
- 1:17:38Speaker 4: and then they'll focus on the fact that it's ranked
- 1:17:41Speaker 4: choice voting and figure out how it is that they
- 1:17:43Speaker 4: can get elected to be Alaska's next senator. For the
- 1:17:47Speaker 4: next six years.
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: Wow, So I'm confused here. As you had mentioned John Dekker,
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: we had ranked choice voting in the Democratic primary because
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: of all the candidates that Johann won against Cuomo, and
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: ranked choice voting help propel him to victory. But we
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: don't have ranked choice voting in the general. So you're
- 1:18:06Speaker 1: saying that they have ranked choice voting both in the primary,
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: this jungle primary and then eventually the general election.
- 1:18:14Speaker 4: No, the ranked choice is just for the general and
- 1:18:16Speaker 4: for the primary, it's simply the top four vote getters.
- 1:18:21Speaker 4: So you're going to vote for one candidate, You're going
- 1:18:23Speaker 4: to vote for your choice. Do you want to be
- 1:18:25Speaker 4: the next US Senator? And the top four vote getters
- 1:18:28Speaker 4: today primary day then move on to the general election,
- 1:18:33Speaker 4: and that, Curtis, is where it's ranked choice.
- 1:18:36Speaker 2: And that's where the strategy comes in, because both parties
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: try to get another person on the ballot that's going
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: to take votes away from the opposing party. Am I correct?
- 1:18:45Speaker 3: That is correct?
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: That's exactly right.
- 1:18:47Speaker 4: So you know, first make it test this first round,
- 1:18:51Speaker 4: and I think that the two people that I mentioned
- 1:18:53Speaker 4: in particular will make it to the general election. Mary Poltola,
- 1:18:57Speaker 4: the former congresswoman, a Democrat, as well as Senator Dan Sullivan.
- 1:19:02Speaker 4: President Trump put out a social media post over the
- 1:19:05Speaker 4: weekend regarding this race and giving a strong endorsement to
- 1:19:09Speaker 4: Senator Dan Sullivan. No surprise, Sullivan is a one hundred
- 1:19:13Speaker 4: percent supporter of Donald Trump has supported all of his
- 1:19:18Speaker 4: initiatives in Congress, so no support that the President is
- 1:19:21Speaker 4: backing the senator.
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: Very quickly, John, if you look East North Korea, theyre
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: The President seemed to be hinting yesterday at the White
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: House that he'd like to have another meeting with the
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: leader there. You were around when they were first getting together.
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: What was that like, Well, that's right.
- 1:19:39Speaker 4: I was at the very first meeting that took place
- 1:19:41Speaker 4: in Singapore in the president's first term, and of course
- 1:19:44Speaker 4: the President also met with Kim Jong und two other times,
- 1:19:49Speaker 4: once I believe in Oslo and another time at the DMZ.
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: Really remarkable.
- 1:19:56Speaker 4: Nothing became of those meetings, however, you know, no commitments
- 1:20:00Speaker 4: that we're adhere to by Kim Jong un, just great
- 1:20:04Speaker 4: photo ops. So I don't know why the President is
- 1:20:06Speaker 4: now focused on North Korea and trying to essentially give
- 1:20:10Speaker 4: them a lifeline. They do, unlike Iran, they do have
- 1:20:14Speaker 4: a working nuclear weapons program, and there's nothing that we
- 1:20:19Speaker 4: can do to reverse that.
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: In any way, I do appreciate it, John Deca, enjoy
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: yourself there in Alaska. I know you're there for the
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: election tonight, and we'll be hearing more from you real soon.
- 1:20:33Speaker 4: I am in Alaska. I'm in Anchorage, Alaska, by the way,
- 1:20:36Speaker 4: four hours behind where you are, So getting up a
- 1:20:39Speaker 4: little early for you, Curtis and Larry, and happy to
- 1:20:43Speaker 4: do so. Can I tell you a really quick story
- 1:20:45Speaker 4: that I think is pretty interesting historically? Didn't if you
- 1:20:48Speaker 4: have a moment, sure, So this whole Dan Sullivan thing
- 1:20:53Speaker 4: reminded me of something that happened earlier in history. It's
- 1:20:56Speaker 4: before my time, but it's historically a really interesting story.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: When John F.
- 1:21:01Speaker 4: Kennedy, the future president, was in his first congressional race
- 1:21:06Speaker 4: in Massachusetts. He's twenty nine years old, relative unknown, and
- 1:21:11Speaker 4: there's someone else in the race who the Kennedy family
- 1:21:15Speaker 4: was very concerned about. His name Joe Russo. He was
- 1:21:19Speaker 4: a city councilman in Boston. So what the Kennedy family
- 1:21:24Speaker 4: did was something very similar to what we see happening
- 1:21:26Speaker 4: here in Alaska. They went through the voter roles, and
- 1:21:30Speaker 4: they looked for another individual named Joe Russo, and they
- 1:21:34Speaker 4: got this Joe Russo to enter the race, Joe Russo
- 1:21:38Speaker 4: being a plumber in Boston, and so there were two
- 1:21:41Speaker 4: Joe Russo's on the ballot. When John Kennedy had his
- 1:21:45Speaker 4: first congressional race and a forced John Kennedy easily wins
- 1:21:48Speaker 4: that race, maybe the voters of Boston were confused. And
- 1:21:52Speaker 4: of course John Kennedy ultimately goes on to be the
- 1:21:55Speaker 4: next a future president of the United States.
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: Oh, do appreciate that John loved songs?
- 1:22:01Speaker 6: Paer.
- 1:22:01Speaker 2: A couple of weeks ago, we talked about retired NYPD
- 1:22:04Speaker 2: Lieutenant James molloy who was up in Yorktown just walking
- 1:22:09Speaker 2: his dog and it was attacked by another dog, and
- 1:22:12Speaker 2: he took out his gun and shot the other dog. Well,
- 1:22:14Speaker 2: the other dog is named Luke, and he's owned by
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: a beloved homeless man who helps everybody out in the
- 1:22:23Speaker 2: area and named Matt Steele. So everybody in the Yorktown
- 1:22:26Speaker 2: community knew Luke and knew Matt, and they were furious
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: that this happened. But not only that. If you remember
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: the first time when he was arrested it was packed
- 1:22:40Speaker 2: with animal rights advocates protesting. So yesterday he was back
- 1:22:45Speaker 2: in court today again just to go through some paperwork
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: and set up a trial date. And guess what the
- 1:22:52Speaker 2: protesters were back There was even more of them.
- 1:22:55Speaker 12: It's really ugly living in the world where animal abusers
- 1:22:59Speaker 12: just aren't held accountable.
- 1:23:02Speaker 7: And we're tired of it.
- 1:23:04Speaker 2: Yeah, so molloy right now is charged with aggravated cruelty
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: to animals and reckless endangerment for just firing the gun
- 1:23:13Speaker 2: and public in the first place.
- 1:23:15Speaker 1: Everyone will be here. We're not going anywhere if we
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: don't get justice for Loop.
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: When they say everyone will be here, that means they'll
- 1:23:21Speaker 2: be back on October thirteenth, and I would expect curtis
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: an even bigger crowd now.
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: Normally, if from NYPD cop, which he is, would have
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: a contingent of PBA members, probably retired, shitting there and
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: supporting him in the courtroom. They usually pack out the
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: court room. I think in this particular case, the PBA
- 1:23:44Speaker 1: is like, Eh, I don't think we want to face
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: an angry group of people with animal welfare people because
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: they're generally pro cop to begin with.
- 1:23:52Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll keep following this. Let's get some talkbacks. They're
- 1:23:55Speaker 2: plentiful right.
- 1:23:56Speaker 13: Now, Larry, you're relying on his historians to define FDR. Hello, historians, liberals,
- 1:24:06Speaker 13: they're the socialist Wake up, Larry. I can't believe Curtis
- 1:24:11Speaker 13: is right on this one.
- 1:24:12Speaker 2: Well he's not, and you're not either. I went and
- 1:24:15Speaker 2: looked at some of the conservative, some very conservative historians.
- 1:24:20Speaker 2: Russell Kirk, you know who he is. He used to
- 1:24:22Speaker 2: be the writer of the conservative mind. He is one
- 1:24:26Speaker 2: of the top conservative historians of the twentieth century. He
- 1:24:31Speaker 2: defined modern traditional conservatism. He said, no that he's not
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: a socialist. Instead, this is from him. He is the
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: founder of the modern American traditionalist conservatism and the new
- 1:24:47Speaker 2: Deal as expressed in American Pragmatism. He goes on and
- 1:24:51Speaker 2: on to talk about him, but he said that was
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: only used in the political campaign against him. The Republicans
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: tried to label them as a socialist.
- 1:24:59Speaker 1: He is not to tell that to Rush Limbaugh. All
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: the years I listened to him because he ranted against
- 1:25:04Speaker 1: FDR as being a socialist.
- 1:25:06Speaker 2: Well as everybody. As I just said, Conservatives use that
- 1:25:09Speaker 2: against him.
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: But it was not true.
- 1:25:12Speaker 23: Listen to you, two guys, go at it. It's the
- 1:25:16Speaker 23: best radio in the morning, the best radio in the morning,
- 1:25:20Speaker 23: because it's real. It's what people do every day at
- 1:25:24Speaker 23: the office, what people do every day with their friends.
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: This is real radio.
- 1:25:31Speaker 3: I love it.
- 1:25:32Speaker 2: That was really nice of you, and I can I
- 1:25:35Speaker 2: can promise you it's real. There is nothing contrived about it.
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: We don't even know. Oh yeah, you've you've sat there
- 1:25:43Speaker 2: and watched it, but.
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: Then we're on to the next subject and we're not
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: focused on that subject any longer unless it comes back
- 1:25:51Speaker 1: on a talkback.
- 1:25:52Speaker 2: Yeah, it's never personal, true, it has never ever been personal.
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: We can we can just talk about other things right afterwards.
- 1:25:58Speaker 24: All these people that want to go in and rob
- 1:26:00Speaker 24: all the stuff eight at dead beats B do they
- 1:26:03Speaker 24: realize that how many people are going to put out
- 1:26:06Speaker 24: of work in stores closed, and they'll have no place
- 1:26:08Speaker 24: to go and rob. I tell you the American people,
- 1:26:12Speaker 24: New York people, they're all.
- 1:26:14Speaker 4: Knit with.
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: And I can only tell you from my street experiences.
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: They're not using the products themselves. They're going out and
- 1:26:23Speaker 1: it's like their wholesalers now they're selling it out in
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: the streets to be able to get their booze or
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: their drugs. It has nothing to do with personal hygiene.

- 1:26:39Speaker 2: Cervis Well, a lot of people wanted to talk today
- 1:26:43Speaker 2: about the woman who went on tiptok saying that the
- 1:26:46Speaker 2: gratuity that's included in your bill is not her tip.
- 1:26:50Speaker 2: She wants more.
- 1:26:51Speaker 25: That lady, that influencer talking about the tipping and the
- 1:26:55Speaker 25: PERTUITI is completely wrong. That's just part of the current
- 1:26:59Speaker 25: mentality of entitlement that our younger generations have. And no,
- 1:27:04Speaker 25: it's the American tipping culture is out of hand. If
- 1:27:07Speaker 25: you go to Europe, basically it's completely different. But she
- 1:27:11Speaker 25: was completely wrong, and that's absurd.
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: I think we all concur on that. But now at

- 1:27:34Speaker 26: The President insists that the US has full control over
- 1:27:37Speaker 26: the strategic waterway and even suggests he may soon declare
- 1:27:41Speaker 26: it a US territory.
- 1:27:42Speaker 9: We control over the blockade, and I like the idea
- 1:27:46Speaker 9: of declaring the territory.
- 1:27:48Speaker 26: His own Energy secretary says the strait is a quote
- 1:27:51Speaker 26: conflict zone. This comes as US military officials are scrambling
- 1:27:54Speaker 26: to respond to a Trump truth social post condemning long

- 1:28:32Speaker 11: want to think twice before you down that sweet drink.

- 1:28:42Speaker 21: researchers at mass General Brigham Cancer Center who analyze data
- 1:28:46Speaker 21: from one hundred thousand study participants. But artificially sweetened drinks
- 1:28:50Speaker 21: like diet soda post no increased risk of stomach cancer.
- 1:28:54Speaker 21: The CDC says more than sixty percent of US adults

- 1:31:45Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this is progress for Penn State, though,
- 1:31:47Speaker 4: because at least this scandal has kids over eighteen.
- 1:31:51Speaker 2: Oh man, we gotta hellt.
- 1:31:54Speaker 1: Sho Wow, listen you as you did.
- 1:32:02Speaker 4: I this is where I love stories like this because

- 1:32:08Speaker 4: I went to community.
- 1:32:09Speaker 3: College, but that and you know, we kind of make
- 1:32:11Speaker 3: fun of that.
- 1:32:12Speaker 4: But the truth is, all of the dumb things happening
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: at schools never happen at mind. Do you know what
- 1:32:17Speaker 4: they're not doing at Nassau Community College right now channing
- 1:32:20Speaker 4: Free Palestine? You don't know if they're not doing They're
- 1:32:23Speaker 4: not running an international cocaine ring. Because we have local
- 1:32:27Speaker 4: guys in Hempstead. You're not gonna catch us in the
- 1:32:31Speaker 4: middle of some foreign cocaine trafficking operation. We go right
- 1:32:34Speaker 4: down the block to Terrace Avenue in Hempstead. Keep the
- 1:32:38Speaker 4: cartels out of there.
- 1:32:39Speaker 1: What we're doing here.
- 1:32:41Speaker 2: So at Nasau Community College who ran the cocaine operation.
- 1:32:45Speaker 4: Local guys get it everywhere nastas like right in Hempstead.
- 1:32:49Speaker 4: Are you kidding me? I wouldn't be shocked if these
- 1:32:52Speaker 4: cartels are picking it up at Nassau and bringing it.
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: To Penn State. I don't know. Yeah, they are Westbury.
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: That's where the guy cans from the leader of the pack,
- 1:32:59Speaker 1: him and his dad, and they were transporting the kiwos
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: from there and also Philly and bringing them right to
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: Happy Valley where everybody obviously was happy.
- 1:33:09Speaker 3: Yeah, they were having a nice time out there.
- 1:33:10Speaker 4: Give him that, you know what, Like like I said,
- 1:33:14Speaker 4: my school, you pay like you don't tuition cost at
- 1:33:18Speaker 4: a place like Harvard. Okay, hundreds of thousands of dollars. Yep, Curtis,
- 1:33:23Speaker 4: I had to give a guy named Spider a bag
- 1:33:25Speaker 4: of weed and they let me into the ant off
- 1:33:28Speaker 4: and there I went a bowling charmistry of rap music.
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: It was amazing, probably ragweed at the time. Also, am
- 1:33:35Speaker 1: I correct?
- 1:33:37Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of potpourri and those uh hey.
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: One of the stars of your Saturday show on the
- 1:33:46Speaker 2: Fox News Channel, Natalie Makeleori, was out today asking about
- 1:33:50Speaker 2: shoplifting because we had a crazy Democratic assembly person who
- 1:33:54Speaker 2: said that if somebody goes in and steals soap or deodorant,
- 1:33:57Speaker 2: you should just let them go. That's that that's a
- 1:34:00Speaker 2: crime of poverty. And so I was wondering when I
- 1:34:03Speaker 2: heard that. I think that happens very often when people shoplift.
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: When you were a cab driver, did they get in
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: your cab for the getaway?
- 1:34:12Speaker 4: No, because everybody thought I was a cop.
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: That's the problem.
- 1:34:15Speaker 4: When you're a white cab driver, they either think it's
- 1:34:17Speaker 4: an undercover cop or cash cab. Literally, everyone would get
- 1:34:21Speaker 4: in and think of a cat cab. They would jump
- 1:34:23Speaker 4: in and be like, so, do you have any questions
- 1:34:25Speaker 4: you want to ask us? And I'd go, yeah, where
- 1:34:27Speaker 4: are you headed?
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: You know, because they thought it was a game show.
- 1:34:31Speaker 4: So I told me, you know what's so so dopey
- 1:34:33Speaker 4: about this? Because she said, you know, well, they need it.
- 1:34:35Speaker 4: If they're doing it, they need it.
- 1:34:37Speaker 3: That makes it okay, Okay, Listen, I grew.
- 1:34:40Speaker 4: Up chubby with a bad haircut. I had no shot
- 1:34:42Speaker 4: of getting laid. Does that mean I could grope women
- 1:34:44Speaker 4: on the subway because I needed it?
- 1:34:46Speaker 7: Like?
- 1:34:47Speaker 4: It doesn't make sense, but that's you know, that's what
- 1:34:49Speaker 4: they're trying to justify this.
- 1:34:51Speaker 3: It's it's stupid.
- 1:34:52Speaker 1: Now, are you upset that it appears that Luigi Mangioni
- 1:34:56Speaker 1: has thrown in the towel and gone no match, no match?
- 1:34:59Speaker 1: All the men you easts will have no way to go.
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: The journalists were counting on a full year of trial,
- 1:35:05Speaker 1: both at the state level and federal level, and I'm
- 1:35:08Speaker 1: sure that would have provided you with a lot of
- 1:35:10Speaker 1: comedic material.
- 1:35:13Speaker 4: Yes, but there is another trial coming because he got
- 1:35:16Speaker 4: indicted for stealing those eyebrows from a Greek cab driver.
- 1:35:22Speaker 4: Eyebrow grand theft eyebrow. He's a wanted man in a
- 1:35:25Speaker 4: story right now. He's not gonna walk free. And this
- 1:35:29Speaker 4: is all said and done. I know they were banking
- 1:35:32Speaker 4: on they love these juicy sexy killers stories. It really
- 1:35:36Speaker 4: does show you how many broken people are out there,
- 1:35:40Speaker 4: you know.
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: But you know, screw him.
- 1:35:42Speaker 3: It's it's so stupid.
- 1:35:43Speaker 4: And he ruined the name Luigi. You know that's what
- 1:35:45Speaker 4: kills me.
- 1:35:47Speaker 1: Mario like I did.
- 1:35:49Speaker 4: Mario and Luigi love Mario and Luigi.
- 1:35:51Speaker 3: Now you hear Louis.
- 1:35:52Speaker 1: And he also ruined big eyebrows.
- 1:35:55Speaker 4: Big eyebrows?
- 1:35:56Speaker 1: Did he ever?
- 1:35:57Speaker 3: Well listen, you know he he uh Luigi thing.
- 1:36:01Speaker 4: All of those women because the one thing, Curtis and
- 1:36:03Speaker 4: I'm sure you saw this. These are not like circus
- 1:36:06Speaker 4: freak women. Some of them are young, good looking women.
- 1:36:10Speaker 4: But it does show you, like there's so many crazies
- 1:36:12Speaker 4: out there, like actual crazies. They're a good time but
- 1:36:17Speaker 4: you know that good time gets old fast, is all
- 1:36:20Speaker 4: I'm trying to say, Yeah.
- 1:36:21Speaker 2: The crazies that worry me are not the ones with
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: the weird hair who or the dress up like Luigi
- 1:36:28Speaker 2: Manngioni outside courtroom. There are like thirty percent of the
- 1:36:32Speaker 2: people in this country in a poll said that they
- 1:36:36Speaker 2: understand why he did it, and they and they too
- 1:36:39Speaker 2: are that upset with the healthcare industry and with healthcare insurance.
- 1:36:44Speaker 2: So I'm just it scares me that he pled guilty.
- 1:36:48Speaker 2: He showed them the way and there may be another
- 1:36:50Speaker 2: one out there.
- 1:36:52Speaker 1: Yeah, that is scary.
- 1:36:53Speaker 4: And you know what's funny is like if ever there
- 1:36:55Speaker 4: was a moment to like slam on the brakes and
- 1:36:57Speaker 4: talk about what a failure the Affordable Care Act was,
- 1:37:00Speaker 4: Obamacare as we've always called it. I mean, the Democrats
- 1:37:04Speaker 4: passed something called the Affordable Care Act, and here we
- 1:37:07Speaker 4: are ten years later, and they're fine with us killing
- 1:37:10Speaker 4: healthcare CEOs because the prices are too high.
- 1:37:12Speaker 3: Like if that's not an acknowledgment that your.
- 1:37:15Speaker 4: Bill didn't get the job from.
- 1:37:17Speaker 3: You know, wow, I who should be asked about this?
- 1:37:21Speaker 4: They should be asking Obama, what does it say about
- 1:37:24Speaker 4: the Affordable Care Act that half your party.
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: Fine was shooting a Healthcare CEO. Wow, I had never
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: thought of it in that way, And the spirit of
- 1:37:33Speaker 1: John McCain is staring down at you and saying, Jimmy,
- 1:37:36Speaker 1: are you trying to say I shouldn't have gotten out
- 1:37:38Speaker 1: of my death's bed and gone thumbs down when I
- 1:37:41Speaker 1: went into the well of the Senate and did not
- 1:37:43Speaker 1: kill Obamacare.
- 1:37:45Speaker 4: No, I don't know that, because the truth is Republicans
- 1:37:47Speaker 4: were dirtbags on this issue because they ran on repeal
- 1:37:50Speaker 4: and replace Obamacare for ten years. Then Trump got in
- 1:37:53Speaker 4: and they were like, we don't have a plan, and
- 1:37:55Speaker 4: they had to put together that last ditch plan that.
- 1:37:57Speaker 1: Most of them get.
- 1:37:58Speaker 4: You know, they got shot down, So I don't think
- 1:38:00Speaker 4: they're any better, but you know, the prices of Again,
- 1:38:03Speaker 4: they called it Obamacare because obviously.
- 1:38:05Speaker 3: They wanted to tie it to him.
- 1:38:06Speaker 4: But the bigger slander is affordable care. If you call
- 1:38:09Speaker 4: it the Affordable Care Act, And now I have to
- 1:38:11Speaker 4: get into a car accident because that copey is cheaper
- 1:38:15Speaker 4: than my healthcare.
- 1:38:16Speaker 3: Copey, you're not getting the job done.

- 1:41:25Speaker 1: but he's pushing forward with his plan for city owned
- 1:41:28Speaker 1: and operated supermarkets to open up one in each world.
- 1:41:33Speaker 1: The first location is Hunts Point, and I got to
- 1:41:37Speaker 1: tell you how to all the neighborhoods I've ever been in,
- 1:41:39Speaker 1: I've made about three hundred. Larry I would say it's
- 1:41:42Speaker 1: so isolated there because it's on the other side of
- 1:41:44Speaker 1: the Bruckner and there's almost nothing there. You know, it's
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: a bodega wholesale meat place and it's opening up by
- 1:41:51Speaker 1: the old spot for it. This is where you used
- 1:41:54Speaker 1: to go if you were a juvenile of delinquin. So
- 1:41:56Speaker 1: today it's taking on tour and this is gonna be
- 1:42:00Speaker 1: a good indicator men and women who actually are going
- 1:42:04Speaker 1: to be sub contracted to run the supermarket, who have
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: knowledge of running supermarkets and might also be in the
- 1:42:13Speaker 1: business as we speak. So having met a lot of
- 1:42:17Speaker 1: them when I was running for Maya both times, you
- 1:42:19Speaker 1: know small supermarkets, well, Deggis grocery stores. It'd be interesting
- 1:42:24Speaker 1: how many of them would cross that maginal line and say, oh,
- 1:42:27Speaker 1: I'll run the store. If the price is right.
- 1:42:29Speaker 2: If the price is right, the incentive, what they're going
- 1:42:33Speaker 2: to get paid to do. This is what we should
- 1:42:36Speaker 2: be looking at. By the way, if they had some
- 1:42:38Speaker 2: really good investigative reporters in town, because most TV stations
- 1:42:42Speaker 2: have gotten rid of them, they would be after that.
- 1:42:45Speaker 2: I would love to know how they're going to get
- 1:42:48Speaker 2: anybody to run these places when they set the prices,
- 1:42:52Speaker 2: When they can't decide, the owner can't decide what the
- 1:42:54Speaker 2: prices are, the city's going to decide, right.
- 1:42:56Speaker 1: Remember the mayor has said, we're not selling cigarettes, so
- 1:43:00Speaker 1: we're not selling booze. We're gonna sell vegetables, eggs, milk,
- 1:43:05Speaker 1: you know, the basics. At thirty percent reduction. That's like,
- 1:43:09Speaker 1: that's not even at cost. You're you, and you know
- 1:43:12Speaker 1: you have the biggest fruit and vegetable market right there
- 1:43:15Speaker 1: in Hunts Point, at the very end that supplies fruits
- 1:43:17Speaker 1: and vegetables for everybody.
- 1:43:19Speaker 2: And the biggest money makers are the booze and the
- 1:43:21Speaker 2: lottery tickets and all the things you're allowed.
- 1:43:24Speaker 1: Hot food, hot food. They're not going to be selling
- 1:43:26Speaker 1: hot food. So I'm really interested. I know you've been
- 1:43:29Speaker 1: in the business. You were at what Waha wah Wah
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: wah wah wah, which I like, well, that's that's a
- 1:43:39Speaker 1: Chop suey restaurant, you know, a Chinese restaurant that wasn't change.
- 1:43:43Speaker 2: Between Maha and wah Wah. I was like, you know,
- 1:43:46Speaker 2: it was a marriage of the two.
- 1:43:47Speaker 1: As you know. I love that place, I really love it.
- 1:43:51Speaker 1: And I was a key man at an amp at
- 1:43:53Speaker 1: Big Amp, so I had to order at night pack out,
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: and I know quite a bit about the business. I
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: just don't see it's a nicol endim business. To begin
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: with shoplifting and huns Point, we had Natalie Maglori go
- 1:44:06Speaker 1: down in the streets. There are more shoplifters in a
- 1:44:09Speaker 1: hunts Point per square inch for a capital than anywhere
- 1:44:12Speaker 1: else in the city. With the mayor's attitude towards shoplifters,
- 1:44:16Speaker 1: it's almost like it's gonna be a feast for them
- 1:44:19Speaker 1: and a famine for the people come in looking for
- 1:44:21Speaker 1: the products because it'll be stolen before they can even
- 1:44:23Speaker 1: be put out for purchase.
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: But they can't let it fail. So Mom, Donnie has
- 1:44:28Speaker 2: got to grease the wheels because if this fails, it's
- 1:44:32Speaker 2: gonna be his failure. It's gonna be on his lap.
- 1:44:35Speaker 2: And so all these people that are coming in today,
- 1:44:38Speaker 2: I think are coming in like knowing that, saying, guess what,
- 1:44:41Speaker 2: he's gonna have to pay us off. The city's gonna
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: have to give us some extra money.
- 1:44:45Speaker 1: If he gets somebody who's well known in the business,
- 1:44:48Speaker 1: having been a success in the business, their peer group
- 1:44:52Speaker 1: is gonna be so angry at that person or persons
- 1:44:55Speaker 1: who come in and say, we're running for the city
- 1:44:57Speaker 1: if the price is right, because now they've crossed over,
- 1:45:00Speaker 1: because all the private entrepreneurs, owners and operators, whether it's
- 1:45:04Speaker 1: a chain store and individual family owner operated store, have said,
- 1:45:08Speaker 1: if this succeeds, you're going to be killing us. We
- 1:45:10Speaker 1: can't compete with your pricing.
- 1:45:12Speaker 2: Unless he goes, well, this is my subsidy right here,
- 1:45:15Speaker 2: and he shows them a piece of paper and they go, oh,
- 1:45:17Speaker 2: how can.
- 1:45:18Speaker 1: I get in on it?
- 1:45:19Speaker 2: How can I get in on it?
- 1:45:20Speaker 1: Larry, We'll have a lot to talk about tomorrow, that's
- 1:45:23Speaker 1: for sure. Now. Meantime, we talked about tipping this morning.
- 1:45:26Speaker 1: It was one on one of those TikTok videos the
- 1:45:29Speaker 1: talk Back in the morning and winner of the Curtis
- 1:45:32Speaker 1: Leewa and Larry Menti in the morning t shirt had
- 1:45:34Speaker 1: a great story to share with all of us.
- 1:45:37Speaker 4: I was out with some friends.
- 1:45:39Speaker 6: We ordered food.
- 1:45:40Speaker 28: The server was very nice. We weren't too needy. When
- 1:45:45Speaker 28: we left, we left twenty percent of the bill only
- 1:45:50Speaker 28: on the food. We didn't include the tax, and we
- 1:45:54Speaker 28: were confronted by the waiter.
- 1:45:55Speaker 1: Was everything, okay?
- 1:45:57Speaker 6: You didn't leave?
- 1:45:58Speaker 28: You know, you left such a small tip and he
- 1:46:01Speaker 28: wouldn't stop.
- 1:46:04Speaker 2: That is obnoxious. I wouldn't even go back to that
- 1:46:08Speaker 2: place again. What you should tell the owner?
- 1:46:11Speaker 1: Yeah, he's like a boil on your backside that you
- 1:46:14Speaker 1: can't get rid of it. And remember the talk back
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: of the week will win a Seacrane radio. Seacrane radios
