  Speaker 1: Now more marsamone on seventeen WR.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Well, in just a few minutes, it's about it's a
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: little after eleven o'clock. A few minutes, Bill Clinton will
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: show up to testify, give a deposition the committee investigating
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein. They're doing this in Chappaqua. They have actually
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: rented the committee has rented the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Very nice. It's not exactly Radio City, but it's very nice.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: And they're going to do it there and they'll be
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: the Hillary Clinton grilling went on for hours and hours yesterday,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: and this is of course with Bill Clinton will be
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: much much more to talk about. So this could take
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: all day. This could be a six to seven hour
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: thing grilling Bill Clinton, and he will Hillary's whole thing
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: about I don't know Jeffrey Epstein. I never met Jeffrey Epstein,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: which nobody was buying. Bill Clinton can't do that. Obviously,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: they were together quite a bit and traveling all over
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: the world together, So I'll have to detail all of that.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Also, when Bill Clinton was president, Jeffrey Epstein visited him
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: in the White House seventeen times, stayed over Lincoln bedroom
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: that held so first of all, It's hard to imagine
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: seventeen visits to the White House sleeping over all that
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: stuff that he wouldn't have met Hillary. Hard to believe
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: that now some of there's Democrats on the committee. They're
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: yelling and screaming about they want Donald Trump to testify.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Trump would have a good story to tell because he
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: was the first one that really caught on to Epstein,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: and way back, way back in the beginning all of this.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: In mar A Lago, Epstein made a lot of money.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: He was a very wealthy guy, and then when he
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: came to Palm Beach, he joined mar A Lago started
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: throwing money around. Anytime you run a resort or a
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: club and there's a new member with a ton of
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: money spending it like crazy. You're the owner, you're the manager,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: you always go meet the guy and you're always nice
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: to him. Always see a loaf, he's there, you go
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: greet him. And that's basically Epstein and Trump. They became
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: They were never friends, but they became very friendly. They
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: both like pretty women, they both like parties, so they
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: were together a lot of them. And then one day Epstein,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: the member at mar A Lago, hits on a young
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: girl a young girl working in the locker room, and
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: it turned out she was the daughter of a member.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Trump gets wind of this, has Epstein thrown out of
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: the club, revokes his membership, tosses him out, never talks
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: to him again, started to warn people about Epstein, even
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: me back then. He was one of the couple of
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: people that warned me stay away from Epstein and going
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: near that guy. So he'd have a pretty good story
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: to testify to. So Democrats looking for something out of him,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: it's not going to happen. They're also calling for Howard
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Lutnick to resign, that he should leave and describe it.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Turns out all they were able to figure out is
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: that one day Howard Lutnik and the way he knew Epstein.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Lutnik bought a house on East seventy first Street, a townhouse,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: his wife and kids. They lived in this townhouse. Well,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the townhouse next door literally attached to their townhouse. The
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: next door neighbor was Jeffrey Epstein. That's how they met.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Lutnik was a big Wall Street guy, Cantor Fitzgerald, and
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: of course what he always does, Epstein was chasing after Lutnik,
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: inviting him to party everything, And then Lutnik was going
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: to be on his boat down in the Caribbean right
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: near Epstein's island, and Epstein begging him to come to lunch.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: So finally one day he'sa, yeah, we'll stop in for lunch,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: and the boat pulled up to Epstein's island and for
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: one hour they had lunch. But Lutnik had with him
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: his wife, his four kids, he had two nannies, he
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: had another couple with him. They spent an hour on
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: the island having lunch. I don't think I have to
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: resign for having lunch with somebody. Now here's some sickening stuff.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Everything is in those Epstein files. Everything, every email he
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: ever sent, every text he ever wrote, His credit card
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: bills are in there. Everything. So they've been looking through
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: the credit card bills and they see he was paying
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: a lot of storage facilities around the country. He had
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: storage facilities all over the place. So they've gone and
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: open up those storage facilities to see what he had
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: in there. He had a number of these storage lockers
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: all over the place, and apparently he had an army
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: of private eyes taking stuff to the storage facilities and
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: putting him in there. But here's some of what they
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: found in there. What was he having? What was he
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: filling these storage facilities with sex slave manuals? Dozens of
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: address books, and a huge porn stash. When they say
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: porn stash, now, I remember this is back then. Your
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: kids today you wouldn't understand this because it's all free
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: and it's all on a computer. Back then, porn was
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: on VHS tapes and DVDs. Now there are kids listening
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: or no, what a VHS? What is that? It wasn't
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: that easy your kids today. You had to go somewhere
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: and get porn on a VHS. You had to Did
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: you rent it? I can't remember. I guess you could
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: rent it right like any VHS, or you'd buy it.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: But you had these VHS tapes with the porn on it. Also,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: Epstein had a lot of nude photos, apparently of women
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: he'd been with. Many of these victims, and box loads
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: of sex toys were also uncovered. Storage locker and Palm
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Beach was one of at least six units scattered across
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: the US. They found him on the credit card statements.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Private eyes were paid to move this stuff around. You
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: gotta oh, you know it was. Here's what it was.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Remember he was arrested in two thousand and five and
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: charged with sex with underage girls. He wasted all that stuff,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: So it was after that. I guess he got nervous
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: about having all this porn and all this stuff, so
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: he had private eyed moving it around to these storage facilities.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Pretty disgusting. Anyway, Clinton, we'll know by the end of
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: the day what happened in this testimony. Clinton will have
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: to explain why he was traveling all over the world
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: with Epstein, why he used Epstein to found and fund
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: the Clinton Global Initiative, why he invited Epstein to the
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: White House seventeen times while he was president. Hey, Duncan
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Donuts announces, Oh, actually, they're only trying it out in
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: two states so far. This is the new thing. It's
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: called the bucket of coffee forty eight ounces. You know
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: how big that is. It's a bucket. It's for one person.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: You know, you realize how fat people are nowadays. Everybody's
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: obaste nowadays. You know, if you go back and watch
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: movies from the nineteen fifties or the nineteen sixties, everybody's
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: nice and thin, and you know why, look carefully at
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: the nineteen fifties movies and sixties movies. Portions were tiny
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: back then compared to now. They were small. Everything was small.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Coffee cups were small, the plates were small. Watch scenes
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: where they're eating. It's small portions. That's the way you're
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: supposed to eat. They ate that way back then, and
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: they were all nice and thin. And then through the years,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: everybody in the food world started increasing portion sizes. Everything
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: got bigger, candy bars, everything, everything you ordered everything, you
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: just started eating more and portion size got larger. Starbucks
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: and Dunkin Donuts comes along. They got regular coffee, large, medium,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: extra large. They didn't have that back then. And now
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: they're going to go even worse with Tunkin Donuts with
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: the bucket, the forty eight ounce bucket of coffee. They're
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: trying it out in two states. And you know, McDonald's
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: is working on a new hamburger. They're trying it out
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: in some place. It's called the Big Art. It's like
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: a Big Mac, but three times the size, absolutely enormous.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: So again it's just going to get people more and
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: more obese. As Ozentpic tries to catch up with all
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: of this, they speaking of food, Zora and Mamdani. Remember
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: that free grocery store, Well, apparently he was serious about it.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: He wants to start trying it. He wants to start
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: by spending seventy million on his free grocery stores. Now,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: remember the ideas the groceries are free, But it's seventy million,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: so that means taxpayers are paying for it. It's not free.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: It means all of us have to pay for these
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: free groceries. And didn't he just say New York was broke,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: that we got a terrible budget deficit, that we don't
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: have any money. So why seventy million for the free
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: grocery stores? Makes absolutely no sense. Hey, Chuck Schumer, you
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: know how they always tell you about President Trump's approval rating.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: They always claim it's low.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: It's not.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: They rig those polls. Chuck Schumer's approval rating, You know
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: what it is. You never hear about this. Nobody reports this.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer's approval rating twenty seven percent. This is a liberal,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: left wing blue Democrat in New York. Only twenty seven
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: percent think he's doing a good job. So not good.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: The latest and the Guthrie case, it looks like they're
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: kind of winding down. They don't know what else to do. Now,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: they still have three hundred to four hundred agents, FBI,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: federal agents on the case. What can they do. Well,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: they came out with that new million dollar award. It
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: had been fifty thousand, then one hundred thousand. Finally they
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: offered a million dollar reward. And I guess this is
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: why they didn't want to do that in the first place.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: Once the million dollar reward came out, they got fifteen
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: hundred tips. Fifteen hundred tips. Now you know what it
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: takes in manpower to run those all down. That could
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: take a while, but that's all they can do right now. Hey,
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: there's a you know, the White House ballroom. The President
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: wants to build the most magnificent ballroom in America at
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: the White House. The problem is they got the East
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Room of the White House, which if you look at
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: it on TV or in pictures, it looks pretty elegant,
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: but it's tiny. It can only hold like one hundred
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: and twenty people. It's small. So whenever they had a
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: big event, especially with a big world leader at the
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: White House, they had to do it out on the
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: lawn in a tent, you know, like somebody in having
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: a party in their backyard in Long Island. It was embarrassing,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: especially for world leaders who live in these palaces that
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: come to America for a big presidential dinner and they're
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: in a tent in the backyard of the White House,
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: you know, standing on wet grass. It was embarrassing. So
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: President Trump wants to build a ballroom, and he is
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: the best builder in the world right now of ballrooms.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Nobody in the world has built more ballrooms. He builds
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: them all over the place. In every hotel. He has
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: the Lago Ballroom, a spectacular The Washington.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: D c.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Hotel he built quite a ballroom there. So he knows
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: what he's doing. So the White House won was going
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: to be instead of one hundred and twenty in the
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Eastern was going to be four hundred. Then it was
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: eight hundred. Now I think it's up to fifteen hundred.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: It's a magnificent ballroom. He's going to get it done
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: for four hundred million. If the government tried to do it,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: it'd be six billion. He'll do it for four hundred million.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: He'll do it fast. If the government built it, it
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: would take probably five six years. He'll get it built
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: in five six months. It's going to move very fast.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: The only thing is everybody, you know, crazy Washington, the swamp,
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: they were trying to stop it. So the Landmark Provision
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: whatever commission what blocked it.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: That was it.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: Well they went to court and they won that. Now
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: there's another Washington, DC Swamp, National Preservation, Landmark, whatever the
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: hell it is, went to court to stop the ballroom.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Well the judge ruled yesterday and throughout their lawsuits. So
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: that's it. They're no more legal hurdles. Construction can begin.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: They've already cleared the whole space. They knocked down whatever
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: they had to knock down, dug a hole in the ground,
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: construction equipment, you can see it's sitting there. But now
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: there's no more legal hurdles. It's over. They can start building.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: So starting Monday, you're gonna see all kinds of construction
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: going on, and you watch how fast that ballroom goes up.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: It's going to be absolutely amazing. It looks too big
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: to me though, the building, the outside of it, I mean,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: it's almost bigger than the White House, but the insight
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: will be spectacular. It's so big that they can do
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: any kind of event there. They'll even be able to
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: hold from now on the presidential inaugurations in that ballroom.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: It's going to be something. You know, they've always had
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: a big problem because it's Washington, DC, and in January
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: it can get cold. And remember this last inauguration it
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: was like five below zero and snowing, so they had
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: to move inside of the cap Rotonda. Well, from now
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: on you never have to worry again. They'll be in
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: this magnificent ballroom. And it's hard to imagine that if
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: a Democrat gets elected he could get away with tearing
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: down the ballroom. I don't think he could. Nobody could.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: It would be impossible to justify doing it. So you'll
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: see it go up very very fast. Hey, as we
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: mentioned before, there's this bidding war for Warner Brothers Discovery WBD.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Netflix bowed out yesterday, so Paramount will get Warner Brothers. Now.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: The reason they want this, it's a big company. One
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: reason they want it is Netflix and all these streaming services.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: They got to make movies and TV series, you need
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: production facilities. So one of the reasons they want a
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Warner Brothers Discovery. It comes with the Warner Brothers Movie Studio,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: which is the biggest studio in Hollywood. That'll be a
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: big help to Paramount production wise. And the other thing
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: they'll get is HBO HBO Max, so they'll put that
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: into Paramount, which will make it a bigger streaming service.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: They'll also get CNN. They don't really want it. It
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything. It's a tiny little network with twelve viewers.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: But they claim they'll fix it up. I think that
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: was one of the promises they made Donald Trump, that
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: they'll fix CNN, make it more neutral, more balanced, more moderate,
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: not a crazy left wing propaganda site. So it looks
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: like the deal's going to go through. Netflix bowed out.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: That's good news. So this is working out very well. Hey,
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls when we come back. Eight hundred
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: three to two one zero seven ten is the number.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 14:40

• 14:43

• 15:06
  Speaker 5: Do you have any idea where?
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: No, that's not the property. I forget it's sunny side.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: They've already got the.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: Property, okay, because over there the surrounding communities would give
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: them a lot of a lot of problems. All right,
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: thanks for telling me. I wasn't sure.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: All right, Thanks. Let's go to Tom in New Jersey. Tom,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: how you doing?
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I wanted to get your take on the men's
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: hockey team apology. Uh for their reaction when Donald Trump called.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Apology, you got the wrong person men's hockey tea.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: The men's hockey teams apologized yesterday that they shouldn't have
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: laughed when Donald Trump.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Was saying when he made the joke about the women's.
• 15:51
  Speaker 6: Team, Yes, what you're taking that.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I don't have a take on it. It's just normal
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: that business as usual. He made some joke about it.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: I guess now I got to the women. It's just
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: a harmless joke. But with the Trump derangement syndrome, anything
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: he has was anything he says was an incredibly racist,
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: sexist awful. Uh, it was just it was just a
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: harmless joke. It meant absolutely nothing. Let's go to John
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: and Paramus. John, how you doing good?
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Good Mark?
• 16:20

  Speaker 7: went out yesterday and got one of his books and
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: it is hysterical. I mean, with the stuff to that
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: guy wrote. I was laughing out loud reading it.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: About the book, the book called laugh Lines. Yeah, it's
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: a story of his career in comedy. Laugh Lines.
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: It is hysterical and some of these jokes that you've
• 16:42
  Speaker 7: heard over and over, he wrote these jokes that are timeless,
• 16:47
  Speaker 7: they're classic jokes that these comedians used all over. It
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: is really a great read. It's hysterical. I want to
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: thank you for having them, Mink, because he really sounds
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: like a really nice guy.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Very very nice guy. Yeah, everybody should get this book.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Alan's White Bell like time in comedy written for all
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: the big comedians, and wrote a very very funny book
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: called Laughline. So go get it. Let's go to Mario
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: in New Jersey. Mario, how you doing.
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: Oh, good morning, Mark, Thanks for taking Michael and enjoy
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: your show. Listen. Regarding people being skinny, years ago, I
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: was brought up in the fifties, sixties and seventies, and
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: I got to.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Take you to grow up thirty thirty.
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: You grew up and listen, the food was just was
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: asn't as available as it is today. A good example
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: is when you go to gas up, you gas up.
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: Chances are ninety percent of the time that gas station's
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: got a food mark there. So what do you do?
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: You gass up while I was gassing up. You want
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: to nail and you get some goodies.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: It's just a yeah, I know, But go check the record,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: Go look at get some magazines or something like from
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: the nineteen fifties and sixties. You'll notice everything is smaller.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: The food portions are smaller, the coke can is smaller,
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: the candy bar is smaller. Everything was smaller. People ate
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: less back then. Let's go to Joe in Long Island. Joe,
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: how you doing.
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: Hi, markom morning. I May retired in York City police officers,
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: and I just wanted to comment on the uniforms that
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: the officers are wearing today. Back in my day, we
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: wore tailored uniforms with brass buttons that seem to command
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: more respect than the way these young officers are wearing today,
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: I realized the uniforms are probably more comfortable, but it
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: doesn't seem to command the same.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, there's all kinds of studies. Yeah, you
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: didn't wear the blue light blue shirt. You woar the
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: black jacket over it, dark dark blue, but it looked black.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: All kinds of studies show when you're wearing black or
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: very dark blue, it signals authority. That's why in some
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: restaurants they put the waiters in black. It signals confidence
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: and authority, and psychologically that's what it does. So you're right,
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: you're right, they should go back to black uniforms looked
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: a lot better. That's why a guy like Donald Trump.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Go look at Trump earlier in the seventies, eighties, nineties,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: we're in all different colors and jackets, but then from
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: like two thousand and nine, only black suits, dark dark blue,
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: black suits. You'll never see him in a gray suit
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: or a light gray suit. Black signals authority.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: It works.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Tom and Queen's Tom. How you doing?
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: Hey, Mark, good morning? So what do you think Bill's
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: gonna have? What is the ants are going to be?
• 19:21
  Speaker 7: When they pull out the picture of the portrait of
• 19:23
  Speaker 7: him in a blue dress that was in the entrance
• 19:26
  Speaker 7: of Epstein's house.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was pretty weird. Epstein had a portrait done,
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: a painting of Bill Clinton in a blue dress wearing
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: high heels, and they're gonna probably ask him about it
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: and he'll say, well, you know, it's the first I
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: ever saw was on was in the news. I never
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: saw it when I was there, And I guess it
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: means he didn't like me. He was making fun of me,
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: he was making He'll try to use it, probably to
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: create the illusion that they were unfriendly, that they weren't friends.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Bruce in Long Island.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Bruce, how you doing him?
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Mark doing well?
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Hope the same for you.
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: Great show, Mark A Mark quick question. Is the case
• 20:03
  Speaker 6: against Leatsia James ever going to.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Go to trial?
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good question. I know. The problem is
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: you got to find a normal judge that you're getting
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: these crazy left wing New York judges, and they keep
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: tossing the case out. They keep trying to bring it back,
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: but she looks pretty sleazy with those real estate transactions.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: Every yes, primary residence and it's not her, it's some relative.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: And every relative she's got in there seems to have
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: a criminal record of some kind or another. But you
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: just remember the words that John Lennon time wounds all heels.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: So eventually, eventually they'll get her. Oh when we come back,
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: buck Sexton will be with us. You know. Buck and
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Clay do a great show every day at noon here,

• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I'm great, Mark, thank you so much for having me on.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: I'm a super ratified at the response of everyone to
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: the book. So far, we hit the number four on
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: the New York Times bestseller list for debut nonfiction, which
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: is pretty solid. And honestly, I just really want people
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: to go get Manufacturing Delusion. Everyone that's reading it. I'll
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: tell you, Mark, it's funny. The biggest reaction that I'm
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: getting from people is, oh, wow, it's actually a good
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: book with real research that I learned things and has
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: worked my time. Okay, yeah, I'll take it. You know
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: that's right.
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: Well, it's fascinating this book Manufacturing Delusion. You know, we
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: think that the media is a little slanted the biased
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: about it, but you lay out that these are techniques
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: and tricks that have been used by Stalin, the Chinese
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: and Jihatis. And what made you start on this book.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, Mark, it actually comes out of my
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: looking around at America, at America and the world around
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: us after COVID and thinking to myself, how did so
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: many people go completely insane here? And how is it
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: that when I was living in Midtown Manhattan, there was
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: a couple in my building that didn't leave their apartment
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: for six months. That I saw people in my lobby
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: wherein full hasmat suits and that you know, the Biden
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: administration was telling everybody, and Fauci was telling everybody to
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: get shot numbers six, seven, and eight. After already getting
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: to I said, what happened here? So instead, this isn't
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: a COVID book, to be clear, but that was just
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: the genesis of Hold on a minute. There's something that
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: can be done. There's a way that propaganda, there's a
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: way that minds can be manipulated. That has to have
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: a playbook. There have to be tactics to this. And
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: in my research into that, I said, well, well, you know,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I'm an EXCIA guy, and there's some old CIA stories
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: of my mark that I've never talked about before. My
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: first employment in Nigeria, my first deployment to Iraq, my
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: first we're we're also dealing with crazies, jihadis, phrases, which
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: phrases in a different context. And I learned about the
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: radicalization cycle from that experience firsthand. So I had some
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: expertise in radicalization from the CIA. But then I go
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: back to the beginnings of the Historically, I say, who
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: is the best at this the best at this evil
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: thing of controlling minds? And it's Nazi Germany, Stalinist Russia,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Maoist China, and I go to the origins of what
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: we actually call brainwashing, which the Chinese called thought reform
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: and which was called menticide by a vary esteemed information
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: warfare psychiatrists for the Second World War. So I break
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: this down into different tactics marks, so each chapter someone
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: can go and read. They can just jump in pretty
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: much and reach chapter three, they can reach chapter eight,
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: or they can read the whole thing start to finish,
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: and you'll learn about how people manipulate, how systems, how governments,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: how individuals manipulate your mind and make you believe crazy things.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, at the same time, the media goes totally
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: corrupt about ten eleven years ago as Trump comes along,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: totally biased. If we had real media, honest journalism, could
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: these manipulators get away with that stuff today?
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Oh no, I mean they're a huge part of it.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: And the back third of the book is really about propaganda,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: disinformation and methods of control that are used. Well, look, CNN,
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: you know, Jake Pepper can't lock us all in cells
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: and make us write forced confessions like they could in
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Maoist China. But they can engage in, for example, forced phobia,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: which I point out. You know, why was there this
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: you know, the COVID death counter was up on the
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: CNN screen? Or why is it that they tell us
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: that racism is such a This is very important for everyone.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: I want people to understand the history of this mind manipulation.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: So you learn that in the book. But it always
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: takes it to the present day. It takes us to
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: the gender transgender madness of right now, it takes us
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: to BLM. I mean, Mark, how is it that when
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: they would ask average Democrats how many unarmed black men
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: do you think the cops kill a year during the
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: whole BLM madness? Right to two point zero BLM right
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: around twenty twenty twenty twenty one, and they would say
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: five to fifteen thousand was the most common responstitutency. Mark,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: the number was like fifteen. You know, how do they
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: make people believe this stuff? CNN and others fire hose
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: of falsehood. That's one of the primary techniques I get
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: into the like how CNN does this? I think so?
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: I think that's what people would really take away from it.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great book. It's called Manufacturing Delusion. You
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: should go to Amazon and order it right now. Manufacturing
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: Delusions by Buck Sexton. And I'm looking at Amazon, but
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: you got all these badges, all of it, Amazon Bestseller,
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Amazon Choice Amazon. That's pretty good. And if you've been
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: on a book tour doing all those stops.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Well, I've been very inundated and very grateful for it
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: with people who want me to go on and do
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: things on their shows. And I've obviously I've been on Fox,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: and I've been on newsbacks, I've been on fantastic radio
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: programs like yours, which whenever I want to think of home,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: which for me will always be New York, I listen
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: to Mark on WR reminds me of my life in
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: New York City. But you know it's really Mark, as
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: you know now we're in such a virtual world where
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: you just want to get the message out there online
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: and out there from the big platforms to everybody. But
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: you know, it's been really gratifying to see that when
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: you put a book out that makes sense to people,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: manufacturing delusion, people will learn history and manufacturing delusion, people
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: will learn tactics of what's going on around them. And
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: if you want to know, you know, why you're crazy.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: Neighbor Larry from Secaucus believes insane stuff that Nancy Pelosi says.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: This book will scientifically and historically explain that to you.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: And so I think that's why Manufacturing Delusion is such
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: a good value proposition for people and why people should
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: get the book because it really has important stuff to
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: know and important takeaways.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one of the most important subjects in the
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: world right now. Buck Sexton's book is on Amazon Manufacturing Delusion.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: But you're right, that's the most Uh, that's where we
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: have the most problem with it. Your friends, your neighbors,
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: your relatives, they'll argue with you till you're blowing. They're
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: blue in the face, that the Russian collusion was real,
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: that Trump was a pedophile on Epstein Island. And but
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: so what can you do all of that? You can't
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: get through to these people. They think MSNBC is a
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: news network, they think Jake Tapper is a news anchor.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: What can you do about it?
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, the first step, Mark is understanding what
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: the other side is doing and also knowing what you're
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: up against with somebody. And this is what I tell people.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: If someone's going to tell you the sky is purple.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: You can sit there all day and point out it.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: It's not going to change anything. And you need to
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: be able to identify when somebody has reached that point
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: where on an issue, someone may be very normal on
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: many things, but they could have been so propaganda, so brainwashed, brainwash.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Did you point out there are still some people who
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: think that Jake Tapper is a really throwing Jake under
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: the buck today, but that he's an objective news anchor,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: or that anyone at CNN is I mean, not to
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: even get on anyone individually. They're all fraudulently claiming to
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: be non partisan and not to be Democrat operators, but
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: a manufacturing delusion. What I also get into is how
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: you can be aware of when this is being done
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: to you, because this is to fight against this. It
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: always starts with an individual recognizing the tactics, recognizing brainwashing,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: forced phobia, identity construction, and you're like, what are these things?
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Buck at manufacturing delusion, You'll understand. You'll see these things
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: in the media, You'll understand. And look, I'm an XCIA guy.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: So some people go, oh, well, how can we trust
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: you about this stuff? Well, because I know about this stuff.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: I understand how governments do this. I understand how information
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: operations go. So in manufacturing delusion, it's like I give
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: you the playbook of the enemy, the enemy that wants
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: to control your mind, and then at the end I
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: walk you through here's how you see this stuff coming.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: And the base principle you always have to keep in
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: mind is live not by lies. The great quote from
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: Souls and Nets in the Soviet Dissident. Anytime someone's lying
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: to you or wants you to lie, wants you to
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: say that Bob is actually Susie, wants you to say
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: that yes, or all of our cops are racist or something,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: then you know you're on guard. Then you know you
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: have to put up the defenses because they're trying to
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: manufacture a delusion in you. And that's why this book
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: is so important, and that's why I really want everyone.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: And you know, you got an audience of readers. They
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: listen to you, so they're smart people with good taste.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: You got an audience of readers here. It's a great
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: book to buy, great book to get a couple copies of.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: You can give it to your crazy neighbor Larry, and
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: maybe then he won't be so crazy. But please go
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: out there everyone. I really, I have not come across
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: anybody who's given me a shot here and actually read
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: this book, who has not found it. Really, it's quick,
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: it's two hundred and forty pages, give or take. It's
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: meant to be read in a weekend, and it's meant
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: to be something that people can reference and go back to.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: You know, if you're watching MS now which mark as
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: you know you see msaidy to change the name because
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: their brand is so stinky, you could say, hold on,
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: I remember in manufacturing delusion, what's that thing fire hose
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: of falsehood? Oh, it's it doesn't even have to be
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: a sophisticated lie. It just has to be repeated so
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: many times from so many places that it undermines my
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: ability to assess what is true. Oh that's a tactic.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: That's a manufactured delusion. And you go back and you
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: see it's right there in the book, Like I say,
