  Speaker 2: You want to be in a room with the President
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: of Peru for an hour? What are you going to
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: say to him? And then look at this Steve Witcoff,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Jared Kushner, you know Jared used to be right here
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: in Manhattan building skyscrapers. He built that six sixty six building.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: And you know they have a negotia where they go

  Speaker 2: meet with Iranian lunatics. Is this the way you want
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: to spend your weekend? Somebody says you, how was your weekend?
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: I went to Islamabad, Pakistan. I met with a bunch
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: of crazy lunatic fanatic terrort. Who the hell wants to
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: do that? But this is what these guys want to do.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: All right? Right up the street that way, actually two
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: blocks away is the New York Sheridan, big huge hotel,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: and that's where Al Sharpton is having his big convention.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah he still does is believe it or not. Every
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: year there's a Al Sharpton convention. It's his National Action Network.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: That's what it's called, the National Action Network. So far,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: the only action they've taken in the thirty years is
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: bank deposits. You give them money, they put it in
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: their bank account. You have a corporation, a company, whatever,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: you got Al Sharpton shows up on behalf of the
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: National Action Network and starts to talk about you may
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: have bad policies here and it might not be in
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: a minority hiring. And he starts looking at you and well,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: you know, Reverie, we're just about to give you a
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: big donation. I'm glad you're here. We'd like to give
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: five hundred thousand year foundation. And then all of a sudden,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: you're fine with him. That's basically the National Action Network.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: A lot of donations from a lot of companies there.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: But he still has clout within the Democratic Party. You know,
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: remember telling you last week Ned Lamont in Connecticut he's
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: running for a third term as governor, and he had
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: to meet with Al Sharpton. He's not even here, he's
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: in Connecticut, but sure enough, a caravan of SUVs pulls
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: up in front of Lamont's office. Al Sharpton gets out, Yeah,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: that's right, a caravan of SUVs with all these people.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know who the hell all these people are
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: with him, but you know, you had to get the
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: blessing of Al Sharpton. So this still happens. And this
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Sharpton convention opened yesterday and it goes through the weekend.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: It's like four days of the Al Sharpton Convention, and
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: most of the twenty twenty eight presidential hopefuls on the
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Democratic side have to show up. You have to kiss
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: the ring of Al Sharpton. And you got all the
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: local crazy Democrats there. Alvin Bragg is there, Jerry Nadler's
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: waddling around the lobby of the Sheraton. You got Don
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Lemon is there. Of course, he's unemployed. He's got nothing
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: to do all day. He's got nowhere else to go.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: But a lot of people come crawling over there to
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: get his get the Sharpton blessing. Josh Shapiro was there yesterday,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Governor of Pennsylvania. Keep an eye on him. You know,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: nobody thinks him as a serious twenty twenty eight contender,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: but eh, you never know. After all the craziness Democrats,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: it's two years away. By then Democrats will have to
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: get back to common sense, rational candidates. So keep Josh
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Shapiro in mind. JB. Pritzker is there, the big fat
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Ralph Crampton looking Governor of Illinois. JB. Pritzker. If you're
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: at the convention, do not get in the buffet line
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: behind him. You know you'll be there a while. Mark Kelly,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: that nasty looking senator, is there. He's the one that
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: was all over TV yelling about president blowing up bridges
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: and power plants. How that's a war crime. It's actually
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: standard in every war. In fact, usually opening day, that's
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: the first thing you do, is take out the bridges
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and the power plants. The same Mark Kelly always bragged
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: about being a fighter pilot. I forgot to mention that's
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: what he did as a fighter pilot. He took out
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: bridges and power plants. But he's there. A lot of
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: people think he's going to try to run. I think
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: he's got problems though. He was under serious consideration to
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: be Kamalo's vice presidential choice. But from what I hear,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: he did not pass the vetting. I don't know what's
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: in there, but that's what I keep hearing. You know
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: that Roe Conna, Roe Conna. He's that sleezy congressman always
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: on TV's like the new Adam Schiff, always attacking Trump,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: spreading whatever fake talking point the Democrats have. He's real, dirty, sleezy, corrupt.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: I shouldn't say corrupt, just dirty politician. Just say and
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: do anything. But Roe Conna he wants to run. So
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: he was there yesterday, Roe Conna at the Sharpton convention.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: What kind of chance does he have. Well, I'll give
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: you an idea. Sharpton twice called him Roy Conna. He
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: didn't even know his name, Roy Kanna. But remember in
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: the beginning it was Sharpton who used to say, Mam dammy.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: He couldn't pronounce his name either. But forget Roe Connor.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: He's a member of the House. You can't go from
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: being a member of the House to being president. The
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: last time it happened was I think like Grover Cleveland
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: or somebody one hundred and fifty years ago. So we'll
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: see Tiger Woods. You know, he's leaving the country. He
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: needs rehab. It's like his fourth car crash, like third
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: d WI. That means like definite prison. So all you
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: can do is go to incredibly long rehab and then
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: come out claiming you're all better, problems solved, it's all over,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: nothing to worry about. And then maybe the judge won't
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: send you to prison. And he's gotten permission to do
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: it overseas. So he's long gone. But while he's gone,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: and you think he's got the best lawyers in the world.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: But they lost a big round in the Florida court yesterday.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Prosecutors did get permission now to get his entire prescription
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: medicine records from the pharmacy Woods uses, the Lewis Pharmacy
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: in Florida. They've gotten permission to get all of his records.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: They'll know every medication he's got, and that's not going
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: to be good. Remember when they arrested him, they did
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: find two hydro codone pills on him. That's like serious stuff.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: You know. In the old days, you had your pharmacy
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: that you used all the time, and the prosecutors could
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: figure out which your pharmacy was and they go get
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: your pharmacy records. But in the good old days, if
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: you were trying to do something under the radar, you know,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: something you didn't want to know about, well you'd go
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: somewhere else, to a whole other pharmacy that nobody knows
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: you would go to, and you'd get it over there.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: That way, they wouldn't find it when they went to
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: your pharmacy. Well, you can't do that anymore because it's
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: all online. You know, when you get a prescription. It
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: goes to some main central database, so they can look
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: in there. Even if if you went one thousand miles
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: away to another pharmacy, it'll still show up. So you
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: can't sneak around to different pharmacies. That won't work anymore.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Remember Woods told the cops after the crash, the reason
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: for the crash. I mean, it sounds like it was
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: a medication he was on and some of that serious
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: stuff he was taking says you can't drive with it.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: But and that's the other thing. They're at his pharmacy.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: They'll get the prescriptions and they'll see if it's said
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: in the warnings on the prescription, do not drive while
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: taking this. But he said the problem was the reason
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: for the crash. He was looking down at his cell
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: phone and he said he was changing the radio station.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: That's how he got in the crash. He had leaned
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: over to change the radio station. You know, in the
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: old days, it was buttons. You could hit a button,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: you didn't have to actually look. Now it's on screen,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: so you have to actually turn your head and look
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: at the screen. So it's all this whole crash is
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: the fault of whoever was doing that radio show. Had
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: he done a better show, Tiger wouldn't have needed to
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: change the radio station. He didn't like what he was
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: hearing and had to change the station. That's the entire
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: reason for this crash, according to him. Hey, a mayor,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: mom Donnie has confessed. He has admitted he can't do
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: free buses. There's not going to be any free buses.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: You remember during the campaign, we kept explaining this idea
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: of the free buses is insane because the mayor has
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: absolutely no authority over the buses. They're all controlled by
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: the MTA, which is the state. It's run by Hochel.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: The mayor has a couple of seats on the MTA board,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: but that doesn't mean anything. It's controlled by the government.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: There's absolutely nothing mom Donnie could do to make the
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: buses free. So he's now admitted that. One hundred days in,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: he's confessed. He's instead turning his focus on restarting a
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: fair free bus pilot program. But he's still you'd have
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: to go to the city council and get that approved.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: None of this will ever happen. It's just silly stuff
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: that he's doing. Hey, the Artemis space capsule will land
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: in the Pacific Ocean about fifty miles off Catalina. It's
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: tomorrow around five o'clock. Look at this, it says at
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: five seven pm, it'll land five oh seven pm. I
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: guess can they know exactly? Yeah, I guess they can
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: get in the airline. You get your plane thing that
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: says landing at four twenty two, and then you seven
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: hours late. So I don't know. I guess. I guess
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: it's not like they got a lot of traffic of
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: space capsules landing fifty miles off Catalina. But what did
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: we learn from their little spin around the moon? Well,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: all kinds of things. Listen to the NASA.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Suppose the experiments about human health are going to give
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: us data that we need to be able to live
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: on the Moon longer as we develop the moon base
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: and be able to prepare for farther tips like going
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: on to Mars.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Well, i's see, there you go. That's the reason important
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: data on how to live longer on the Moon. I
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: don't anybody wants to live on the Moon. I've seen
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: the pictures I sent back. Doesn't look like I mean,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: you don't look at the pictures of the moon, say
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: here you look they get a place there. I don't
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: think so. So once again, Rex Huerman has pled guilty.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: He is going to prison for the rest of his life.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Three life sentences and that's it. He has a wife
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: who is the wife was there at the courtroom and
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: every watch Breaking Bad. I love that show. You know,
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: when the wife finds out that he's actually been making
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: drugs and working with drug dealers, how upset she gets.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: So I mentioned this wife, you find out he's strangling
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: all kinds of women and dismembering I mean, you know,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: and she's I guess stuck with him. She came to
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: the courtroom. I mean, I would get the hell away
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: from this guy. But here's the ex wife yesterday.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: My thoughts and prayers are with the victims in their families.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: The law is immeasurable and the focus should be on
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: them at this time.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what else can you say? You know, he met
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: some of these women online on these dating apps. Some
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: of them were professional sex workers. But you know, anybody
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: that's on the dating apps, the women ever talk to them,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: they always try to tell you about how bad the
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: dates are, how bad the men are. They always try
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: to you know, they all want to think they got
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: the worst horror story ever, and they wanted to go.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: You won't believe what I got the worst first date.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: And they tell you that he got a little drunk,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: or he grabbed them, or you know, he got in
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: a fight in a restaurant. With the way, it's never
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: a real bad I mean, this would be the worst
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: first date story ever. I don't care what you think
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: is your worst first date. This would be the all
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: time champ. Yeah. At the end of the date, he
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: strangled me, then he dismembered me, and then he put
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: my body parts and buried me in the be This
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: would be the worst first date ever. But good news.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Will never see him again. He's going to prison forever. Hey,
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Kathy Hokeel trying to speak yesterday. I think Bruce Blakeman's
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: going to win. I'm pretty sure Bruce Blakeman's gonna win.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: He'd be the perfect governor. He's been a governor. He's
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: the governor of Nassau County and the best county executive
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: in America. Do a great job. He'd get us out
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: of this mess. Bruce Blakeman. Go to Blakemanfromnew York dot Com.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: You can volunteer or donate there, but he's coming way
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: up in the pulse. And listen to the reaction Kathy
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: Hokel got yesterday speaking before a crowd, I.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Think a lot more members at you shut up, everybody,
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: thank you, appreciate.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: I appreciate you covering this important topic because the people
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: may not realize everything I'm doing is focused on trying
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: to put more money back in their pockets.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: It doesn't sound like a winner to me. That doesn't
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: sound too good. So hey, remember the McDonald's CEO that
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: was They came out with this new burger. I actually
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: had it. I loved it. I thought it was great,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: the Big Arch. It's the newest thing for McDonald It's
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: like bigger than a Big Mac. It's a huge burger
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: and it's really juicy and great. And it doesn't have
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: three pieces of bread. It's only two. It's more meat.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: That's the problem to that Big Mac. The bread to
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: meat ratios off on it. But this is great, the
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: Big Arch. So the CEO did a little video TikTok
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Instagram to promote it where you see him eating it,
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: but he didn't know the way he was holding it,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: the way he took a bite. It looked ridiculous, and
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: it went viral because he looked so stupid eating this thing.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: And he said. His kids called him right away and said, hey, dad,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: you're gone viral. You're over the internet. But for the
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: wrong reasons. It's not good. So it was caused a
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: lot of flak. He was embarrassed. But give the guy credit.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: You know, you can run and hide. But he said,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: you know what, let me do another one. They've coming
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: out with this new some kind of new nuggets chicken
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: something with nuggets. It's a new version. So you know,
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: they say, get right back on the horse. He said,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: let me do a video where I'm eating this. Uh.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: He looked even sillier eating eating the nugt because he
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: took such a little bite. You know, when you got
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: one of those nuggets, you throw the whole thing in
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: your mouth. He took a little tiny bite of it.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: It looked too delicate, didn't look right. Now he's getting
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: ridiculed all over again. People just making fun of him,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: saying the way he's eating that, it's taking him a
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: week to finish one nugget. So, hey, podcasts, you know
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: how many podcasts there are? You know, everybody in the
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: world has a podcast. I mean there's professionals like us,
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: we do podcasts, but there's every amateur in the world
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: has a podcast. Everybody, every real estate agent, the dentist, everybody,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: every housewife. They all got a fake podcast, the amateur podcast.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: How many podcasts are there in the world, four point
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: five million. There are now four point five million podcasts.
• 16:02
