Latest / Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning / Hour 3: Controversial political ads
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, midterm elections moving quickly in so many places where
- 0:05Speaker 1: polls say it's neck and neck. I've never, Larry, in
- 0:08Speaker 1: my entire life, seen right across the board so many elections,
- 0:13Speaker 1: particularly at the Senate level, that are contested where you
- 0:17Speaker 1: see like 49-50.
- 0:18Speaker 2: And it's incredible.
- 0:21Speaker 1: But a lot of folks are focused on Michigan because
- 0:25Speaker 1: there are two extremes there. There There's Jack Armstrong, the All-American,
- 0:29Speaker 1: Mike Rogers. You know, he waves the flag. I'm a patriot.
- 0:32Speaker 1: My whole family is served. Even my wife served in Iraq.
- 0:36Speaker 1: And then you have El-Sayed, who is trying everything he
- 0:39Speaker 1: can to get out of that bubble of being the
- 0:42Speaker 1: Muslim candidate, like we had mentioned. He was in the
- 0:45Speaker 1: Upper Peninsula. He had the American cowboy hat on, red, white,
- 0:49Speaker 1: and blue. He was doing country-western dances. He's done raps.
- 0:54Speaker 1: He's lifting weights, unlike his mentor, who is Zorhan. He
- 0:59Speaker 1: couldn't even lift his body weight. He's trying everything. But
- 1:03Speaker 1: when I say politics is the dirtiest business there is,
- 1:08Speaker 1: especially in these waning days, you're going to hear ads. Man,
- 1:12Speaker 1: it's dirty. So a lot of these are not even ads, Larry.
- 1:17Speaker 1: They just they air online. And then naturally, so many
- 1:20Speaker 1: people see the millions of people see him. So in
- 1:23Speaker 1: the waning days of his campaign, and we're going to
- 1:26Speaker 1: play it for you. It seems like there's a husband
- 1:29Speaker 1: and wife. They're both white. They're at the checkout line.
- 1:32Speaker 1: And the wife, you think, is just talking about the
- 1:35Speaker 1: high price of groceries.
- 1:38Speaker 2: But guess what she attributes it to?
- 1:41Speaker 1: Honey.
- 1:43Speaker 3: What?
- 1:43Speaker 4: You're going to have to put those eggs back.
- 1:45Speaker 2: They don't like eggs anymore?
- 1:47Speaker 4: No, they like eggs. But we have to set that
- 1:50Speaker 4: $ 7 aside for killing Palestinians.
- 1:54Speaker 5: What?
- 1:54Speaker 2: I mean, don't we give Israel $ 4 billion a year anyways?
- 1:57Speaker 4: Yeah, and now we're giving them another $ 26 billion. Do
- 2:02Speaker 4: you know how much that is per American taxpayer?
- 2:04Speaker 6: No.
- 2:05Speaker 4: It's like $ 161 per person. Apparently it's costing us a
- 2:09Speaker 4: lot of money to drop bombs on Gaza.
- 2:12Speaker 2: And so.
- 2:13Speaker 7: That's shocking. That is such a bad ad. You can't
- 2:16Speaker 7: buy eggs because we have to kill Palestinians.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Come on. That's unbelievably over the line.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Right, but it's getting the clicks and also a lot
- 2:26Speaker 1: of potential voters who may be, they're not aligned one
- 2:29Speaker 1: side or the other, but they don't necessarily want our
- 2:32Speaker 1: money going overseas to anybody, never mind Israel. So this
- 2:36Speaker 1: ad was put together by a guy named Cenk Uygur.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Now you say, who the hell is he? He's one
- 2:43Speaker 1: of these young Turks. He happens to be the uncle
- 2:46Speaker 1: of Hasan Piker. That's his nephew.
- 2:49Speaker 8: Wow.
- 2:50Speaker 2: I know who he is. I think most people know
- 2:52Speaker 2: him from the Young Turks. And naturally, what does El-Said say?
- 2:57Speaker 9: I had no idea. I don't know anything about this.
- 3:01Speaker 9: I'm not involved in the making of this, you know, but...
- 3:04Speaker 9: This is online, and you're going to see there are
- 3:07Speaker 9: millions of.
- 3:08Speaker 1: People all over the world who are going to be
- 3:10Speaker 1: watching this, including people who are voting today in Israel,
- 3:13Speaker 1: which we'll be commenting on tomorrow for the next prime minister.
- 3:17Speaker 2: But it's an ad like that.
- 3:20Speaker 1: That might get some people, they think, the al-Said camp,
- 3:24Speaker 1: to swing over because they don't want their money going anywhere,
- 3:27Speaker 1: including to Israel.
- 3:28Speaker 7: I think it'll get more people voting against him. That's
- 3:31Speaker 7: why he's coming out and going, no, no, no, it's
- 3:33Speaker 7: not me. By the way, it is illegal for campaigns
- 3:39Speaker 7: to collude with super PACs or PACs. As a matter
- 3:42Speaker 7: of fact, the fines are heavy. You can get up
- 3:45Speaker 7: to $ 1, 000, time the cost of the ad.
- 3:49Speaker 7: A thousand times times the cost of the ad is
- 3:51Speaker 7: one fine. You can also get five years in prison.
- 3:54Speaker 7: So when a candidate says, no, I had nothing to
- 3:58Speaker 7: do with that, chances are they're telling the truth. Let's
- 4:02Speaker 7: talk more about the ad in Maine. I'm just looking
- 4:06Speaker 7: for an excuse to play it because I think it's
- 4:08Speaker 7: the funniest ad ever. You know, I find myself walking
- 4:11Speaker 7: around the house singing that song. That song just, you
- 4:15Speaker 7: do too, Crash? It sticks in your head. I do too.
- 4:18Speaker 7: And I'm not a big country western guy, as you know.
- 4:22Speaker 7: But boy, that sticks to you. And you know up
- 4:26Speaker 7: in Maine, not too much to do. They're probably playing
- 4:30Speaker 7: that over and over and over.
- 4:32Speaker 2: And it's funny. It is funny.
- 4:35Speaker 1: But again, Susan Collins saying, I know nothing about the
- 4:37Speaker 1: making of this ad, but people are.
- 4:39Speaker 2: Going to play it over and over.
- 4:41Speaker 1: If nothing more than if they're at a bar or,
- 4:45Speaker 1: you know, they're in one's own home, they get a
- 4:47Speaker 1: great belly laugh out of that.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely.
- 4:49Speaker 7: In the meantime, Byron Donald's gotten to a little bit
- 4:53Speaker 7: of trouble.
- 4:54Speaker 2: And it's trouble that many of us get into.
- 4:57Speaker 7: This is why you never call anybody sir or madam anymore.
- 5:02Speaker 7: Because you may end up getting the wrong gender.
- 5:08Speaker 2: I'm not a sir, I'm a ma'am. As a member
- 5:11Speaker 2: of Congress, I voted to actually release those files. That's
- 5:14Speaker 2: number one.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
- 5:18Speaker 2: What the f * * * is going on? I'm
- 5:21Speaker 2: listening to the boys in the mirror. What the f * * *?
- 5:26Speaker 2: You don't see the rest of me, right? You see
- 5:28Speaker 2: a woman there. What the f * * * is
- 5:31Speaker 2: going on?
- 5:33Speaker 7: That's not the person that he misgendered. That's someone else
- 5:38Speaker 7: behind him that said, I can't believe you just did that.
- 5:43Speaker 7: The one mistake he made, if I'm going to say it,
- 5:46Speaker 7: and you've run, how would you handle this, Curtis?
- 5:49Speaker 2: Because I think he needed to apologize. He should have said, oh,
- 5:52Speaker 2: I'm really sorry. Well, you know, in New York, you're
- 5:55Speaker 2: almost stuck with he, she, they, right? Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Well, how would you like, or better yet, how would
- 6:02Speaker 1: you like me to identify you, right?
- 6:05Speaker 2: Then you can't be on shaky ground, but it is funny.
- 6:08Speaker 7: It is funny, but let me defend him for a second,
- 6:11Speaker 7: Byron Donalds. It did look like a dude with long hair.
- 6:15Speaker 7: I mean, all the, you know, you have to, You
- 6:17Speaker 7: have to put a little bit more work into it
- 6:19Speaker 7: if you're going to transgender. You can't just grow your
- 6:21Speaker 7: hair long, put a little makeup on, put a dress on,
- 6:24Speaker 7: do something. Really buy into it because then people won't
- 6:28Speaker 7: misgender you.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Now, the president will be in Florida the last of
- 6:32Speaker 1: his 30 stops in 30 days on Friday. I don't
- 6:37Speaker 1: know if he's doing anything Saturday, Sunday, or Monday. Probably
- 6:40Speaker 1: will be. But you know he'll probably mention that. You
- 6:44Speaker 1: know he will probably mention that.
- 6:46Speaker 2: He can't help himself.
- 6:48Speaker 1: And again, that's an election for governor to replace DeSantis.
- 6:51Speaker 1: By the way, DeSantis did not endorse Byron. That was
- 6:55Speaker 1: not his favorite candidate to replace him. But that's turned
- 6:59Speaker 1: out to be a close race. When they thought, oh,
- 7:02Speaker 1: this slam dunk, Florida slam dunk. So everything is tightening
- 7:06Speaker 1: up no matter what you say. And of course, let's
- 7:09Speaker 1: go up to Alaska where the Department of Justice has said, hey,
- 7:14Speaker 1: we preemptively want to go to court and not allow
- 7:20Speaker 1: this election to take place the way it is. They
- 7:22Speaker 1: want it to be annulled because there are two Sullivans
- 7:26Speaker 1: on the ballot. So you have to understand Alaska is
- 7:28Speaker 1: a lot different. They have ranked choice voting. Really, it's
- 7:32Speaker 1: more nonpartisan, although you pretty much know who the participants are.
- 7:37Speaker 1: And there are four finalists. So originally in the primary,
- 7:41Speaker 1: there were many, many participants who just didn't get up
- 7:44Speaker 1: to that threshold of being the four. So actually, there
- 7:48Speaker 1: are three Republicans. So you have Sullivan, who is the senator.
- 7:53Speaker 1: You have Sullivan that many people misinterpreted. for Sullivan, the senator.
- 7:59Speaker 1: And then you have this guy, Gerald Haney, or something
- 8:01Speaker 1: like that. He's a Republican. And the only Democrat is Peltola,
- 8:06Speaker 1: who right now is favored, according to the polls. So
- 8:09Speaker 1: Dan Sullivan is the one who could mess everything up.
- 8:15Speaker 1: For the sitting Senator Sullivan, because with ranked choice voting,
- 8:18Speaker 1: you could have Sullivan one, the Senator, Sullivan two, if
- 8:22Speaker 1: you so choose.
- 8:24Speaker 2: And boy, that causes a lot of chaos. You know,
- 8:26Speaker 2: the Justice Department has filed suit. Yes. And so they
- 8:29Speaker 2: may hold up. results. I would because this is ridiculous.
- 8:33Speaker 1: So originally the Election Commission said you can't do it
- 8:37Speaker 1: in the primary. A judge reversed it and the highest
- 8:41Speaker 1: Alaska court upheld it. So now all of a sudden
- 8:45Speaker 1: Sullivan is under fire because of the Justice Department. So
- 8:49Speaker 1: he decides I'm going to do an interview but I'm
- 8:52Speaker 1: up in a fishing village and That you can't even
- 8:54Speaker 1: find with a GPS. And he is speaking to Alaska
- 8:59Speaker 1: Beacon reporter by email only. And she is the pool
- 9:03Speaker 1: reporter for everyone else. And she asked, did you change
- 9:09Speaker 1: your registration?
- 9:11Speaker 2: And he said, no.
- 9:13Speaker 1: No, I'm a Republican. And she said, you have changed
- 9:17Speaker 1: your registration. You are now basically what they call a blank,
- 9:22Speaker 1: an independent. And he did a full resudo. He texted back,
- 9:27Speaker 1: emailed back, holy cow, almost like goma pile.
- 9:32Speaker 2: Unbelievable.
- 9:33Speaker 1: This guy is no serious candidate. He is not running.
- 9:37Speaker 1: He's not doing campaign stops. He's not raising any money.
- 9:41Speaker 1: He's doing Jack Diddley squat. other than to try to fool,
- 9:44Speaker 1: through technology, voters into thinking one Sullivan may be the same.
- 9:49Speaker 2: You know, like the Sullivan brothers. I think there were
- 9:51Speaker 2: seven of them in World War II.
- 9:52Speaker 1: You know, they all died in action, and that's why
- 9:55Speaker 1: they don't allow you to serve in the same ship
- 9:58Speaker 1: or the same detail. but man this guy the only
- 10:03Speaker 1: interview he did was responding to emails and he is
- 10:07Speaker 1: in the eye of the storm there.
- 10:09Speaker 7: In alaska he's not he's he's not a candidate he's
- 10:12Speaker 7: not a candidate it's very obvious what they're doing they're
- 10:15Speaker 7: just trying to fool the voters this is a democratic
- 10:18Speaker 7: thing to do When we come back, your favorite performer,
- 10:22Speaker 7: Ella Langley, back in the news. And, well, I'll save
- 10:28Speaker 7: that for when we come back. Plus, a chance to
- 10:30Speaker 7: see comedian John Mulaney is coming up next. Well, America
- 10:35Speaker 7: seems to disagree. She's back to number one after being
- 10:40Speaker 7: knocked off for one week. That makes 25 weeks left.
- 10:46Speaker 7: at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. How is
- 10:49Speaker 7: that possible?
- 10:50Speaker 1: I thought Taylor Swift was dominating with all her Swifties,
- 10:54Speaker 1: knocked her from her perch. Are you trying to say
- 10:57Speaker 1: the Swifties have lost their clout?
- 10:59Speaker 7: Patient Zeroes dropped to number two because Ella Langley's strength
- 11:06Speaker 7: of that song went back to number one. Here's another
- 11:08Speaker 7: record she broke. She has been knocked off the number
- 11:12Speaker 7: one spot and taken it back more than any artist
- 11:16Speaker 7: in history. She's been knocked off by Drake, Taylor Swift, BTS,
- 11:22Speaker 7: Bruno Mars, Olivia Rodrigo, and Ariana Grande. All superstar acts
- 11:29Speaker 7: knock her off for a week or two, and then
- 11:31Speaker 7: she comes right back to number one. This song has
- 11:35Speaker 7: lasting power. And for the first time.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Her album....
- 11:41Speaker 7: Dandelion is number one on the Billboard Top 200.
- 11:46Speaker 1: Who's messing with the algorithms? That sounds like every other
- 11:50Speaker 1: country western song that comes out in Nashville. And I
- 11:53Speaker 1: am surprised on a day where I am sitting concerned,
- 11:57Speaker 1: as I know you, Natalie, and so many in our audience.
- 12:00Speaker 2: For the health of Tom Jones, the.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Welshman, 86 years old, who has Tallarico flu.
- 12:07Speaker 2: He's got a serious strain of flu.
- 12:10Speaker 1: He had to cancel his engagements in LA, San Diego.
- 12:14Speaker 2: May have to do the three he's going to do
- 12:16Speaker 2: in Vegas.
- 12:17Speaker 1: I mean, here's a guy, remember, had number one, she's
- 12:20Speaker 1: a lady, sex bomb, Delia.
- 12:23Speaker 2: Come on.
- 12:24Speaker 7: Yeah, well, Tallarico, first of all, was 37 years old,
- 12:28Speaker 7: and he had to take two weeks off He's probably
- 12:31Speaker 7: going to take one concert date off and then come
- 12:34Speaker 7: right back. Now, Tallarico, don't compare him to him. He's
- 12:37Speaker 7: got something else going on. That guy's a little bit weird.
- 12:41Speaker 1: You know, for you to mention her when I'm feeling
- 12:46Speaker 1: for Tom Jones. Remember how he'd have the open shirt,
- 12:49Speaker 1: the hair, the medallions, the whole nine yards? Yeah.
- 12:53Speaker 2: Come on, now that's an entertainer. That's somebody who's got legacy.
- 12:56Speaker 2: What's the name of this woman again?
- 12:57Speaker 7: Well, that explains a whole lot why you don't like
- 12:59Speaker 7: Ella Langley too much. You like the Tom Joneses of
- 13:02Speaker 7: the world and the Frank Sinatras, you know, back when
- 13:05Speaker 7: it was great.
- 13:05Speaker 1: Well, I would have offered to Tom Jones, who was
- 13:08Speaker 1: a fixture in my household, I would have held his
- 13:12Speaker 1: hand while he got the flu vaccine.
- 13:15Speaker 2: Let's get some talkbacks.
- 13:16Speaker 5: Guys, there is no competition. Trump would rip Barack Obama
- 13:20Speaker 5: a new one. You got to remember. Trump is a
- 13:23Speaker 5: junkyard dog and Obama is just a Ivy League little socialist.
- 13:30Speaker 2: There is no contest. Oh, come on. No contest. Come on.
- 13:33Speaker 7: You'd have to say it is a contest. He got
- 13:36Speaker 7: his ass kicked twice by Mitt Romney. If Mitt Romney
- 13:39Speaker 7: can beat him, then I do believe that Trump can
- 13:42Speaker 7: beat him as well.
- 13:43Speaker 5: The best debater of this modern day had to be
- 13:47Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk.
- 13:48Speaker 7: He was so calm, never cursed.
- 13:52Speaker 2: Kept to the point nobody was.
- 13:54Speaker 7: Better yeah amen to that and he let everybody else
- 13:57Speaker 7: talk and and say what they had to say he
- 14:00Speaker 7: waited until they were done to come back and eviscerate
- 14:04Speaker 7: them i wish i could even afford the cheesecake factory
- 14:08Speaker 7: right now it just shows how out of touch they
- 14:11Speaker 7: are oh that's a good one that's a democrat there
- 14:15Speaker 7: you go that's a good one there's a couple of
- 14:17Speaker 7: them that's what's.
- 14:21Speaker 2: So when it comes to debates, one of the best
- 14:24Speaker 2: ones had the best line. You are no Jack Kennedy.
- 14:28Speaker 1: Do you remember the two that were in the debate?
- 14:31Speaker 8: Oh, sure.
- 14:32Speaker 2: That was Dan Quayle. And was it Benson is his name?
- 14:36Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 14:37Speaker 1: Correct. Senator Benson says, I know. I knew JFK. You know, JFK.
- 14:42Speaker 1: And remember, there's Quayle who couldn't even spell potato. And
- 14:46Speaker 1: he was like spun like a top. And I must admit,
- 14:48Speaker 1: I lifted that in my mayoral debate. Remember when I
- 14:51Speaker 1: looked at Andrew Evil Eyes Cuomo and said, I knew
- 14:54Speaker 1: your father, Mario.
- 14:55Speaker 2: You're no Mario Cuomo. Oh, that's interesting. I missed that.
- 14:58Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.

- 16:31Speaker 3: flurry of White House renovations, from his ballroom to the
- 16:34Speaker 3: gold in the Oval Office.
- 16:36Speaker 8: It actually relaxes me.
- 16:38Speaker 2: Donald Trump. spends a lot of his time fixing up
- 16:42Speaker 2: the White House. Isn't that a nice thing to do?
- 16:45Speaker 3: It comes after former President Obama on the campaign trail
- 16:48Speaker 3: mocked the president's renovation projects.
- 16:50Speaker 10: ABC's Jay O'Brien, 30 years in a federal prison for

- 16:57Speaker 10: of targeting young kids at synagogues.

- 17:02Speaker 8: August to coercing a 14-year-old boy into a sexual performance
- 17:06Speaker 8: and two counts of receiving child porn. The 34-year-old had
- 17:10Speaker 8: gotten two boys to send sexual images, and he'd sexually
- 17:14Speaker 8: abused the 14-year-old. Grunwald was on probation for molesting a
- 17:18Speaker 8: 7-year-old girl at a synagogue and sexually abusing a 13-year-old boy,
- 17:23Speaker 8: both of which he pleaded guilty to in state court

- 18:00Speaker 10: on 710 WOR.
- 18:02Speaker 1: Congratulations to Meiji Perazzi from Seacliff, New York. You just
- 18:08Speaker 1: won a pair of tickets to see comedian John Mulaney's
- 18:11Speaker 1: final stop on his Nine Night Nine venue. Mulaney takes
- 18:14Speaker 1: Manhattan Tour January 15th in Madison Square Garden. There's another
- 18:18Speaker 1: chance to win tomorrow at 825. Up next, you go
- 18:23Speaker 1: to sleep with Jimmy Failure Monday through Friday, 9 to
- 18:27Speaker 1: 12 right here at 710WOR. And then you wake up
- 18:30Speaker 1: with me and Larry in the morning at 6.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Jimmy Fallon. Oh, man, I'm prepared for him. Wait till
- 18:37Speaker 2: you hear what I open up with him on.
- 18:40Speaker 1: So there I was, like so many people, watching the
- 18:43Speaker 1: wedding of the rock-reved, all-American, conservative voice of reason from
- 18:47Speaker 1: Franklin Square, Long Island, Sean Hannity, and his lovely bride, Aimsley, all.
- 18:52Speaker 2: Dressed in white tux and tail, everybody.
- 18:56Speaker 1: And who do I see off to the side like
- 18:58Speaker 1: a real goober? Dressed in white, busting at the seams.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Our own Jimmy Failure, who was the ring boy for
- 19:06Speaker 1: the ceremony.
- 19:07Speaker 2: Come on, Jimmy. Is that the only way you could
- 19:09Speaker 2: get into this ceremony?
- 19:12Speaker 5: Good for you. You stop it. I was actually out
- 19:15Speaker 5: in Napa telling jokes Saturday night. I took my mom
- 19:19Speaker 5: with me to California because she's 75 and she's never
- 19:22Speaker 5: had fentanyl. So, you know, you got this bucket list.
- 19:25Speaker 5: You got to check the items. It's like you got
- 19:27Speaker 5: it now or never. You know what I mean? So
- 19:30Speaker 5: I missed the royal wedding. I was not there. And
- 19:33Speaker 5: just so you understand, Fox does not have me at
- 19:35Speaker 5: any event that has an open bar. If you notice
- 19:42Speaker 5: at the White House Correspondents Dinner, my show is on
- 19:44Speaker 5: the red carpet and not inside the ballroom.
- 19:50Speaker 7: You got into the ballroom after the shooting happened, right?
- 19:53Speaker 7: You hid out in there. Did you eat? Did you
- 19:55Speaker 7: get some drinks.
- 19:56Speaker 2: While you were hiding?
- 19:57Speaker 5: No, you're going to laugh. I was in the ballroom
- 20:00Speaker 5: as it happened.
- 20:01Speaker 2: Okay.
- 20:02Speaker 5: It's so crazy. So I was walking up to the
- 20:04Speaker 5: front thinking I was going to be cool and fist
- 20:07Speaker 5: bump the president. Like, Oh, look at Jimmy, you know,
- 20:09Speaker 5: and literally halfway to the front of the room, everything
- 20:12Speaker 5: went down. So I'm under a table with Kennedy.
- 20:15Speaker 2: Okay.
- 20:16Speaker 5: Eating rolls, chugging wine. And then the shooting happened.
- 20:20Speaker 2: I'm kidding.
- 20:20Speaker 5: No, we were, we are, but it was just crazy. And, uh,
- 20:23Speaker 5: you know, we made it out.
- 20:25Speaker 2: Did you ever get to eat by the way? During
- 20:28Speaker 2: that whole thing?
- 20:29Speaker 3: Okay.
- 20:29Speaker 5: Yes, because what happened was, it's a funny story. Because
- 20:32Speaker 5: I was the guy hosting the TV show for three hours,
- 20:35Speaker 5: they're obviously, when breaking news like that happens, they throw
- 20:38Speaker 5: me out of the way. They're not going to have
- 20:39Speaker 5: Jimmy making balloon animals in a rhinestone jacket while the
- 20:43Speaker 5: SWAT teams in the Secret Service.
- 20:46Speaker 2: So you're going to laugh.
- 20:47Speaker 5: This might be the fattest.
- 20:49Speaker 2: Thing I've ever done.
- 20:50Speaker 5: In real time, as I see the chaos unfolding in
- 20:54Speaker 5: the ballroom, I'm not even making this up. I room
- 20:57Speaker 5: serviced to 339, and it got there before everything shut down.
- 21:01Speaker 5: I hit a turkey club. I'm not even kidding. I
- 21:05Speaker 5: wish I was lying. We had this app. It's like
- 21:10Speaker 5: a valet parking app where if you text your code,
- 21:13Speaker 5: it just brings you stuff. I ordered a turkey club
- 21:16Speaker 5: and fries and got to my room and ate it
- 21:17Speaker 5: and watched my own TV show. Like I said, Fox
- 21:20Speaker 5: News Saturday Night with Jimmy Fallon, but I wasn't on it.
- 21:23Speaker 2: It was amazing.
- 21:24Speaker 1: Now, speaking of eating. You have this thing going on
- 21:28Speaker 1: with our producer, Natalie. Nothing on the hush-hush down low,
- 21:32Speaker 1: but she tends to text you pictures of loaves of
- 21:38Speaker 1: Italian bread, and I don't know.
- 21:41Speaker 2: Do you get off on that, Jimmy?
- 21:43Speaker 6: Oh, no, no, no.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Oh, innocent. Right, Jimmy?
- 21:47Speaker 5: No, but Natalie has sent me so many of these
- 21:50Speaker 5: six-inch loaves, I feel like Anthony Weiner's back on Twitter.
- 21:53Speaker 5: It's crazy. Sailing in.
- 21:58Speaker 2: Well, I'm going to see Jimmy tomorrow night, so I'm excited. Oh, yeah.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Tomorrow night. Sold out crowd. What can people expect that
- 22:05Speaker 2: are going to be there tomorrow night?
- 22:07Speaker 5: Well, I mean, you're going to see me. I always
- 22:09Speaker 5: say my natural habitat. This is where I started. You know,
- 22:12Speaker 5: when you first start to instead of comedy, you're doing
- 22:14Speaker 5: open open mics like opium dens on the Lower East Side.
- 22:18Speaker 5: And then you actually do play Italian restaurants because they'll
- 22:20Speaker 5: have like.
- 22:21Speaker 9: A comedy night.
- 22:21Speaker 5: Families come down. They like to laugh. So you're seeing, like,
- 22:25Speaker 5: for real, this is like a 2001 Jimmy Fallon, but
- 22:27Speaker 5: I'm not going to have the bleach blonde hair this time.
- 22:30Speaker 2: Going to reign it in a little bit for TV. Disappointing.
- 22:33Speaker 2: Rhinestone jacket, I hope, though.
- 22:36Speaker 5: You never know. You never know. But I'm psyched for
- 22:39Speaker 5: the gig because I love doing comedy in Jersey specifically
- 22:43Speaker 5: because Jersey never lost the edge. You know, there's something
- 22:46Speaker 5: about waiting two hours to cross a bridge that charges
- 22:48Speaker 5: you $ 30. That, you know, kind of keeps your priorities
- 22:51Speaker 5: in order.
- 22:52Speaker 2: That's right.
- 22:54Speaker 5: Jersey crowds are the best crowds. So you will watch, like,
- 22:56Speaker 5: the most aggressive version of my set there is. And
- 22:59Speaker 5: I like that. It's, like, exciting for me.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Now, we talked earlier, Jimmy.
- 23:02Speaker 1: Hopefully you were listening and you weren't in a drug-induced
- 23:05Speaker 1: psychosis sleep. But we were talking of how New Jersey
- 23:10Speaker 1: drivers are rated the second worst in the nation. You've
- 23:14Speaker 1: been all over the nation touring, doing your stand-up. North
- 23:17Speaker 1: Dakota first. New Jersey's second. Now, you've crisscrossed the Garden
- 23:22Speaker 1: State to Turnpike, Garden State Parkway.
- 23:25Speaker 2: How do you weigh in on this, Jimmy?
- 23:30Speaker 5: Well, there's a thing, okay? In North Dakota, you've got
- 23:33Speaker 5: to understand, they're driving horses, so I don't think that counts.
- 23:37Speaker 5: You know what I mean? We've got motorized vehicles back
- 23:42Speaker 5: here on the East Coast, and I think it's a
- 23:44Speaker 5: totally different experience. Pound for pound is the thing. I
- 23:47Speaker 5: think Jersey are the most aggressive drivers in America, okay,
- 23:51Speaker 5: because it really is the only state where you signal
- 23:53Speaker 5: after you've already made it into the next lane. That's right.
- 23:58Speaker 2: What is that signal again?
- 24:00Speaker 5: Yeah, you don't signal to let them know you're coming over.
- 24:03Speaker 5: You signal to let them know you made it, you know?
- 24:04Speaker 2: That's the funniest thing in the world.
- 24:08Speaker 5: I'll talk about that a little, but I consider Jersey
- 24:10Speaker 5: the most aggressive, but in my experience, I'm not kidding.
- 24:13Speaker 5: I think Florida and California are the worst because there's
- 24:17Speaker 5: no consistency. Like in California, the far right lane is
- 24:21Speaker 5: often the fastest lane because there's a guy in the
- 24:24Speaker 5: left lane who can't speak English or read the road
- 24:27Speaker 5: signs that Gavin Newsom gave a trucker's license to, and
- 24:30Speaker 5: everybody's just trying to stay the hell out of there.
- 24:33Speaker 7: I'm just shocked that there's something called a far right
- 24:36Speaker 7: lane in California. That was a surprise to me. Hey, listen,
- 24:40Speaker 7: tomorrow night you're appearing and you're doing some standup, but
- 24:45Speaker 7: Kuchina Kalandra. I look at Donald Trump when he's on
- 24:49Speaker 7: this tour. And by the way, he's doing seven shows
- 24:52Speaker 7: in six nights. That's what comics do. Seven shows in
- 24:55Speaker 7: six nights. And he goes on for 90 minutes. When
- 24:58Speaker 7: you see him, do you think to yourself, he'd be
- 25:00Speaker 7: a great standup?
- 25:03Speaker 5: I think he'd be a good emcee. An emcee is
- 25:06Speaker 5: the guy who comes on and just picks on the
- 25:08Speaker 5: crowd for 10 minutes before the comic comes out. Because
- 25:11Speaker 5: those are all of his best moments. It's like he's
- 25:13Speaker 5: a crowd work comedian, you know, and that's what you'd
- 25:17Speaker 5: like him to do because he juice up the room.
- 25:18Speaker 5: He comes on, he calls somebody fake news, checks out
- 25:22Speaker 5: this guy's butt. I was so happy to get Nicki
- 25:28Speaker 5: Minaj on stage because Trump is killing me. Because all
- 25:31Speaker 5: I want to do is tell jokes about James Tallarico being.
- 25:34Speaker 2: In the closet.
- 25:35Speaker 5: But every time they throw Trump a microphone, he checks
- 25:37Speaker 5: out another guy's ass. I can't do the Tallarico stuff
- 25:43Speaker 5: if you're going to keep doing this.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Well, anyway, Jimmy, don't fail me now, failure. You go
- 25:51Speaker 1: to sleep with Jimmy in any which way you choose.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Monday through Friday from 9 to 12 here on WOR710,
- 25:59Speaker 1: the most listened-to talk station in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut,
- 26:04Speaker 1: and Pennsylvania.
- 26:05Speaker 2: And then you wake up with Larry and me in
- 26:08Speaker 2: the morning. What a one-two combination there, huh?
- 26:12Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah. It's a one-two. You know, the people who
- 26:15Speaker 5: go to bed with me, okay? Just to be clear, okay,
- 26:18Speaker 5: this is not one of those, like, you know, we
- 26:22Speaker 5: do a lively show, but Curtis always promotes my show
- 26:25Speaker 5: like it's the Bill Cosby bartending school. I'm not knocking
- 26:28Speaker 5: these people out.
- 26:31Speaker 7: Have a great time tomorrow night. I'm sure it's going
- 26:33Speaker 7: to be wonderful. Can't wait to hear about it. Thanks
- 26:35Speaker 7: a lot, Jim.
- 26:36Speaker 5: Red picks for everybody. Love you.
- 26:37Speaker 2: Take care.
- 26:38Speaker 9: That's right.
- 26:39Speaker 7: Curtis, they're setting records, they say, in Israel right now
- 26:43Speaker 7: with the voting. It's up 31.5% at this point. That's
- 26:48Speaker 7: the most people to vote in an election since the 1970s.
- 26:52Speaker 7: So we're talking about five decades since they've had this
- 26:55Speaker 7: many people come out. And I know that Benjamin Netanyahu
- 27:00Speaker 7: is worried about this because he has been urging his
- 27:04Speaker 7: right-wing base to vote by pointing at the high turnouts
- 27:09Speaker 7: among Arab citizens of Israel. And as a matter of fact,
- 27:13Speaker 7: the parties with the Likud party is pushing the same narrative.
- 27:18Speaker 7: It released a poster with a crowd of a woman
- 27:21Speaker 7: in a hijab urging right-wing Israelis not to stay at home.
- 27:28Speaker 7: So you can see that Netanyahu is worried about this.
- 27:31Speaker 7: With four people, as you stated earlier, there may not
- 27:35Speaker 7: be a clear winner at the end of this.
- 27:37Speaker 3: No.
- 27:37Speaker 1: And interesting, Israel, one day, one day only voting, no
- 27:41Speaker 1: mail-in ballots. If you happen to be living overseas, which
- 27:45Speaker 1: about 630,000 Israelis are, you are entitled to vote, but
- 27:50Speaker 1: you must come back and cast your vote in person.
- 27:55Speaker 1: So that is added to obviously a tremendous voter turnout,
- 27:59Speaker 1: and that's good. The more people vote, the better. But
- 28:02Speaker 1: these are the two things that stand out to me.
- 28:05Speaker 1: You have the posters all over Israel from the Golan
- 28:08Speaker 1: Heights to a lot where BB is pointing to the
- 28:11Speaker 1: crowd with Trump next to him. And he says only
- 28:14Speaker 1: with him. Will we complete the mission? And you know
- 28:18Speaker 1: what he means. Regime change in Iran and bombing Iran.
- 28:22Speaker 1: That's like one of his key points. So that has resonated.
- 28:26Speaker 1: But his main opposition, this guy Gadi, who used to
- 28:30Speaker 1: be the chief of staff of the military, quiet, not
- 28:34Speaker 1: as telegenic as Bibi. Bibi was trained in America, so
- 28:37Speaker 1: he has the American ability with the camera. But he
- 28:40Speaker 1: has billboards that says, my son was killed in Gaza.
- 28:45Speaker 1: while Bibi's son was tweeting from Miami. All of that
- 28:49Speaker 1: is true. So that's resonated. And then the two big issues,
- 28:53Speaker 1: you can't get away from this, is secular versus the ultra-Orthodox.
- 28:58Speaker 1: Reservists now who are fighting in Gaza, fighting in Lebanon,
- 29:01Speaker 1: and obviously doing security from all their other adversaries. are
- 29:06Speaker 1: called up for previously unheard 200 or more days a year.
- 29:10Speaker 1: That means they have to leave their families, they have
- 29:12Speaker 1: to leave their jobs, while the ultra-Orthodox are exempt from
- 29:16Speaker 1: doing service. So there's a lot of anger. from the
- 29:20Speaker 1: secular population that pays the taxes, fights the wars. They're
- 29:25Speaker 1: only averaging about one and a half children, you know,
- 29:27Speaker 1: typical like America and Europe. Meantime, the ultra-Orthodox have seven
- 29:31Speaker 1: kids a year. Most of those families are on welfare.
- 29:35Speaker 1: So naturally, if you had to pay for all of this,
- 29:38Speaker 1: plus fight the wars, plus bury your dead, like Gotti
- 29:42Speaker 1: buried his son, you're really pissed off.
- 29:45Speaker 7: I've been hearing from a lot of New Yorkers with
- 29:47Speaker 7: dual citizenship that are flying back. I've seen interviews with
- 29:51Speaker 7: several of. And there's some on both sides, some for Netanyahu,
- 29:55Speaker 7: not Netanyahu, which is really what this is racist about.
- 29:58Speaker 7: It's about Netanyahu or not Netanyahu. And the one person
- 30:02Speaker 7: that I thought was really reasonable was a student at
- 30:05Speaker 7: NYU who was flying back. And he said that Netanyahu's
- 30:11Speaker 7: did a great job. I really like Netanyahu, but his
- 30:15Speaker 7: job is done. It's been 20 years. We need someone else.
- 30:19Speaker 7: And so there is a supporter of Netanyahu that's going
- 30:23Speaker 7: back there to vote against Netanyahu only because.
- 30:28Speaker 2: They think, well, he's been there too long. Yeah, close
- 30:32Speaker 2: to 20 years. You know, there are no term limits there.
- 30:35Speaker 1: The other thing is Gadi, his adversary, is very close
- 30:39Speaker 1: to his positions, except he's saying, yeah, we'll bomb Iran,
- 30:42Speaker 1: but only that nuclear site. And we want to work
- 30:45Speaker 1: with Trump on keeping up the economic pressure, but not
- 30:49Speaker 1: blanket bombing of Iran.
- 30:50Speaker 2: It's not all that much the difference between the two. No,
- 30:53Speaker 2: not at all.
- 30:54Speaker 7: But Trump is a big factor in this because he's
- 30:56Speaker 7: extremely popular. He's the most popular politician in Israel right now,
- 31:02Speaker 7: and he's backing Netanyahu and It's going to be fascinating.
- 31:05Speaker 7: We'll have more on that tomorrow. We have been talking
- 31:08Speaker 7: about Jersey drivers a lot today, all morning. And the
- 31:13Speaker 7: Talkback of the Morning and winner of the Curtis Sliwa
- 31:16Speaker 7: and Larry Menti in the morning t-shirt is now in
- 31:19Speaker 7: the running for Talkback of the Week. Who will win
- 31:23Speaker 7: a C-Crane radio is a resident of New Jersey and
- 31:27Speaker 7: he has his own thoughts on the issue.
- 31:32Speaker 2: Frank from Jersey. I do everything I can to stay
- 31:36Speaker 2: off the roads. I don't even want to go out of.
- 31:39Speaker 7: The house because of the driving situation in this state.
- 31:42Speaker 2: It's just, you're taking your life into your own hands.
- 31:46Speaker 7: Wow, that's a little extreme. I never thought it was
- 31:49Speaker 7: that bad, but he's a hermit because of it. Do
