  Speaker 1: the Mark the Own Show now nine till noon weekdays,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: seven tenor it'll be even better, a one hour version. Yeah,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: one hour every day. So I fought for that, but
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: it didn't work. Now, you know, Barrett Media, that's the
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: big trade magazine of the radio business, Barrett Media. If
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: you go to Barrettmedia dot com, this is a nice
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: article today about the show, about how we're going to
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: three hours. Take a look at it Barrettmedia dot com.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: And it's up there right now in the website. Let's
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: take some calls. Eight hundred three to two one zero
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: seven ten is the number we always want new callers.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: We got a lot of regular callers, like all kinds
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: of new callers. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Dave in Chicago. Dave, how you doing.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Good morning?
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: Mark.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: With all due respect, you just stole my fun there
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: because I was speaking with Chris, your producer, about the
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Barrett Media piece, which is the bible of the industry,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: and what really caught my attention, among other things in
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: the piece, was the fact that you have a photographic
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: memory and you have so much materials, so when Steve
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Moore doesn't show up. You easily just segue into the
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: volumes of information.
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: That you have.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: And lastly, I've noticed when there is a running story,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: say such as President Trump and the Iran War, you.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Don't sound repetitive.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: You have the talent to make it sound like we're
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: hearing this for the first time, in spite of the
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: fact that it's extremely vital to our security.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: So looking about Dave, you know, normally when the guy's
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: buttering you up, there's a butt coming. With Dave, there's
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: never any butt coming. It's genuine.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: Mark.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Can I say one last thing? Who's going to say
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: this makesunt a little self serving? But the very first
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: day that you left seventy seven and you came down
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: to wry, I woke up at four point thirty in
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: the morning, set three clocks, and I was your very
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: first caller. And I get up and I make sure
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: that I listened at eight o'clock Chicago time.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, cood morning.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: So you are deeply appreciated, and I thank you all.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Right, Well, we appreciate you, Dave. Thanks for calling to
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: take care. Yeah, when we we all came over from
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: the other place, it was me Rush and Sean, although
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Sewan couldn't come for a while. Remember there was like
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: six months where you waiting for his contract to end
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: over there, and then the management from over there came here,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Tom Cuddy, Steve Borneman, And that's right. The first I
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: did the morning show, it was six to ten, and
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: I remember the first guest was Robert Klein, who won't
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: speak to me anymore. He's not a Trump fan. He's
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: not a Trump fan, so he's not going to come
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: on anymore. Second guest that day was Bob Costas, who's
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: not a Trump fan. We lost a lot of guests
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: because of Donald Trump. And at the time iHeart had
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: just bought w O R. And at the time it
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: was such a dump. It was downtown by Wall Street,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: in these awful studios. It took iHeart like four or
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: five months to build us a good studio at iHeart.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: So we were down there for the first four or
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: five months. But that was thirteen years ago. Thirteen years
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: ago we all came over here. Anyway. Let's go to
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Mike in Florida.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Mike, how you doing, good morning, Mark, Yes, Mike, We've
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: come a long way since. Mister Smith goes to Washington
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: now it's mister al Sayad goes to Washington. It's a
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: little hard to wrap our heads around it.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: But you know, you know, two things that you've been
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: talking about for the last hour make me laugh. One
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: is the idiotic Hollywood actresses and singers who were fawning
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: all over Fauci. They should be excoriated in the loudest
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: terms possible by by the public. I mean, it's dispaceful
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: what they did, and there their complicity in this whole
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: pandemic thing. And the other one is how Al Sayad
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: again and Corey Bush when they're giving their speeches there
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: they lapsed into this. You know, their their little patois.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: You know, they sound like they just walked off the
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: set of Gone with the Wind all the time, the hilarious.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: True, that's a good point. Thanks for calling. Yeah, she does.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Listen to Corey Bush. This ain't over, y'all.
