  Speaker 2: gonna be uh get the highest. It's gonna be a cold,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: cold day. But this is it. This is the last

  Speaker 2: cold day until next year. This is the very final
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: cold day. Today it's gonna go up to thirty two,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: but then tomorrow it heads into the forties and then
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: into the fifties and next week in the sixties. One
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: day it'll even hit seventy next week. So this is
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: the final cold day. This coming weekend, we go on
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: daylight saving time eighteen days until spring. Eighteen days until spring.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: You did it. You got through the winter. You don't
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: have much more to go. Just get through today, and
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: it's going to be warm for the rest of the
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: rest of the whole until the fall, until the winter.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: So we're in day three of the action against Iran.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Let's call it the liberation of Iran. Democrats don't know
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: what the hell to do. They're running around like crazy
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: trying to find the attack Kolmane clearly the Iyatolda, clearly
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: the most evil man on earth, the closest thing to
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Hitler in the world today. A brutal, brutal dictator killing
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: his own people at the rate of thirty thousand a month,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: recently savagely killing them, shooting protesters in the street, the
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: ones that survived and got into the hospital. This is
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: absolutely true. In the last few weeks, the Komeni forces
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: have been going into hospitals and shooting them in the head,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: right in their bed. This is Komenie. He's the Hitler
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: of today, obviously trying to wipe out Israel and all
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: the Jews. It's a horrible, horrible, horrible situation. Something had
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: to be done. They tried at the negotiating table. They
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: gave it a good shot. It was clear, very clear
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: that he was not going to negotiate, and he was
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: never going to stop trying to get a nuclear weapon.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: So there was no choice. Time to do something. Now
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: they had spent weeks and weeks and weeks and months
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: planning this attack. They also have spent the last couple
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: of months watching the Iyad told that every day, learning
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: his habits, his patterns, where he went, what he did,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: and they were going to go. The plan was not
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: to go now. Originally the plan was a few days earlier,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: and then the plan was for a few days later.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: But something happened on Saturday. They saw and we have
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: incredible intelligence in Iran, we in Israel, and a lot
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: of it is Israel. But we saw on Saturday something developing.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: They were going to hold meeting with the top forty
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: leaders and the Iatola himself. These forty one people were
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: going to meet in a building. They knew which building.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: They were going to do it on a Saturday morning,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: which would be the middle of the night our time.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: But the reason they felt it was okay to all
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: show up for this meeting in broad daylight, I ran miscalculated. Well,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: actually I don't know if they miscalculated. They realized a
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: few things. The US always attacks in the middle of
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: the night, always in total darkness, because we are the
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: best in the world with night vision equipment and nobody
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: else is, so we have an advantage in the dark.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: We always attack in the middle of the night, so
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: the Iotola figured it was safe we wouldn't attack in
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: broad daylight. He also figured we wouldn't attack on Ramadan.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: He also figured we Israel's not going to attack during
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: the Shabbat on Saturday, so that's why he felt it
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: was safe to have that meeting and for him to
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: show up at it. So we saw this happening, and
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: we'd been ready to go, and when we saw this,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: we decided it was the right time take them out.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: And that's when they hit that building, killed the Ayatola
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: and forty of the top leaders, just wiped them out.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: So it was a great, great success. The beginning operation,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: the news hit the airwaves that we were then bombing Iran,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: attacking Iran, very tough, tough moment for Democrats. It was
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Saturday morning. They hear the news. They all had to
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: run out and buy Iranian flags. They didn't know where
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: to get them. They went online trying to order Iranian flags.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: It's tough for them. As the bombing continued throughout the
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: day and night. Then they realized on Sunday, they're probably
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: gonna have to tear up those Trump Taco signs. Remember
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: those Trump always chickens out. So then the Sunday shows
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: come along, and what do you do. They can't praise
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump no matter what he does. If he killed Hitler,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: they'd be attacking him. Well, he didn't get congressional approval.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: He didn't follow the War Powers Act. First of all,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: you don't need congressional approval for the first sixty days.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: And it's not likely this thing will even make it
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: to sixty days. But you don't need congressional approval for
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: the first sixty days. And if you read that War
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Powers Act, if there are no boots on the ground,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: and there aren't, you don't need to worry about congressional approval.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: President Trump made himself available to reporters in in a
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: way that they even surprise the reporters. Millions of people
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: have his cell number, his private cell number, a lot
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: of reporters. He gives it to all of them, and
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: some of them started calling even Saturday morning, just as
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: the news broke. John Levine, the great reporter, called Saturday.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: It was like eight in the morning. The President answered
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: on one ring. He usually does, by the way, he'll
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: answer on one ring. There are sometimes two rings if
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: he's really tired about not all he does it, but
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: he'll answer on one ring. But Levine got him right
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: on the phone, talked him for four minutes. There are
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: ten other reporters who got the president on the phone.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: He was happy to talk to them. Democrats had to
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: figure out how to criticize this. They had to go
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: on these Sunday shows. How do you criticize President Trump?
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: And he was on the airwaves. He was talking, he
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: may address the nation.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: I once again urged the revolutionary Guards, the Iranian military
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: police to lay down your arms and receive full immunity
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: or face certain death. It will be certain death won't
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: be pretty. The entire military command is gone as well,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: and many of them want to surrender into saving their lives.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: They want immunity.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: They're calling by the thousands.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So the first attack from the Democrats was, he
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: hasn't claimed that to the nation. Why isn't he holding
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: a press conference? Why isn't he Well, he did address
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: the nation at great length. Those are just a couple
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: of clips. I got to play the whole thing that
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: goes on for a long time. He did address the nation.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: He talked to eleven reporters, answered all their questions, including
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: a Kristen Welker of meet the even talked to her
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Hexath and General kin Raising. Cain did a briefing this morning,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: went on at great length. They took questions for a
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: long time, so that attack doesn't work. The next attack
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: they tried was by the way he was at mar
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: A Lago. There was a fundraiser scheduled for Saturday night
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: and he had planned to go to mar A Lago,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: and they decided he should go to mar A Lago
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: because if he didn't, or if they canceled the fundraiser,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: it might raise suspicion in Iran. They might think there's
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: an attack coming. So to keep the illusion up, the
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: fundraiser was on. He went to Florida, which made the
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Iya Tola even more confident in going to that meeting
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: in broad daylight. So they did all of this Saturday morning.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: The bombing continued throughout Saturday and Saturday night. The president
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: in a tuxedo, went to the fundraiser and then had
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: dinner at mar A Lago. So this was the other
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: democratic attack. Look at that in the middle of this bombing,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: he's having dinner with millionaires at mar A Lago. How
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: dare he Well, if you check their record, that's usually
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: what happens. In fact, the biggest military operation of Obama's
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: presidency was killing Bin Laden. That was a very, very,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: very dangerous operation. And while that was going on, Obama
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: was laughing and joking at the White House correspondence dinner,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: which you're supposed to do. Go to the dinner. That
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: makes the enemy think you're not up to anything, the
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: business as usual. So that attack fizzled out. What was
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: the other attack? Well, hey, the other thing is you
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: know they've been attacking Pete Hexath ever since he got
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: in there as totally incompetent, not qualified. Even Mark Kelly,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: that awful senator over the weekend, still saying Hexath is
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: the most unqualified Secretary of Defense, least qualified secretary Defense. Well, first,
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: that's not true. Hexath has a lot of military experience.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: And half the people we made secretary Defense had zero
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: military expense. There were a congressmen, one was an academic.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: So he's got more military experience than half of the
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: secretaries of Defense. And as much as you've attacked him,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: you got to admit he's now run about six of
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: the most complex, sophisticated military operations flawlessly, taken out the
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: nuclear reactors, capturing Maduro, killing the Ayatola. Now we did
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: lose some soldiers. We lost three. As we started bombing Iran,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: they started firing on neighboring countries. One bomb hit Kuwait,
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: hit one of our military bases, and three US soldiers
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: died there. Also, we've just found out yesterday Kuwait accidentally
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: shot down three of our planes. They thought they were Iranian,
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: so it was friendly fire. Kuwait shot down three of
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: our planes. But the good news, all six pilots ejected safely.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: So now I'm trying to think of the other attacks
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: that just couldn't find the attacks. Then they went back
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: to he didn't get congressional approval. You don't need congressional approval,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: and the last eighteen wars and nobody's gotten any congressional approval.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Then the other attack. I was watching this all day Sunday,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: especially the Sunday Shoes. They tried this new attack. He
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: ran on the promise of no regime change. The central
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: theme of his campaign was no regime change. We all
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: watched that campaign. I don't remember that ever coming up.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Do you remember that as even being mentioned. I don't
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: the central theme. I think the central theme was the border,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: illegal immigration. I think the central theme was taxes, the economy.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: May have mentioned regime change somewhere in the campaign, but
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: it was not a theme of the campaign. He did
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: say in the campaign company He did promise a few times,
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: no more endless wars. And that's what this is. No
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: more endless wars, no boots on the ground. There's not
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: going to be any endless tried to you know, nation building,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: trying to occupy the nation. There'll be none of that here.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: So it was a tough tough time for Democrats. They
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: didn't know what to do. They got to attack him
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: left and right, no matter what he does, no matter what. Now, Mom,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Donnie is the mayor of New York. His job is
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: to pick up the snow, run the police department. But
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: being a crazy left winger, he's got to shoot his
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: mouth off.
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: Today's military strikes by the United States and Israel mark
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: a catastrophic escalation in an illegal, active war of aggression,
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: bombing cities, killing civilians.
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: Opening up a new theater of war. Americans do not
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: want this.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: First of all, he has no qualifications to speak about this,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: has absolutely no knowledge of what he's talking about is
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: not in the illegal war, and Americans are all upset. Well,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: I hate to break it to you, they're all in
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: the streets celebrating. That was the problem with CNN. Every
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: time they went out to see some Iranian protesters or
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: what they thought were protesters, turned out it was people celebrating.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Iranians all over the world are celebrating. They're so grateful
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: to the President for getting rid of the evil, evil
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: barbarian liberating Iran. So CNN goes out and there's a
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: bunch of Iranians gather, and they thought they would get
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: them to attack the president, but no, they were celebrating.
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: The celebration is striking. We got here just moments after
• 12:23
  Speaker 7: initial reports, initial rumors of the death of iosl km
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: and A had just started to trickle from Iran to
• 12:30
  Speaker 7: this diaspora community, and people were jumping in excitement, hugging
• 12:35
  Speaker 7: each other, crying, saying that basically they've been waiting forty
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: seven years for this very.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Date, their country has been limited liberated. They're thrilled.
• 12:46
  Speaker 8: Thank you Donald Trump.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Now this is a CBS. They've got somebody on hoping
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: they'll bad mouth Trump.
• 12:50
  Speaker 8: But no, thank you Donald Trump. Thank you, Benjamin Netya
• 12:54
  Speaker 8: who thank you America. It's not death to America after
• 12:57
  Speaker 8: they killed the leader the Americans in the Israelis did it.
• 13:00
  Speaker 8: It's not death to Israel and death to America. It's
• 13:03
  Speaker 8: thank you. It's a new day dawning, but very early days,
• 13:07
  Speaker 8: very very early days. So we'll have to see what comes.
• 13:10
  Speaker 8: But it's the Iranian people that have been telling me
• 13:13
  Speaker 8: over and over and over again, we want this.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So it is one sane democrat out there. John Fetterman.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I never thought i'd say this. Remember when he was running,
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: he was a crazy lunatic in the shorts and the hoodie.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: But boy, he's changed.
• 13:29
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Remember the State of the Union speech. As the President
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: comes down the aisle and sees everybody, all of the
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Democrats refuse to look at him, touch him, shake hands.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: They the only one, the only Democrat that shook hands
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: with him was Fetterman, and he got nothing but flack
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: for it.
• 13:44
  Speaker 9: And if someone's angry that I shook the President's hand
• 13:47
  Speaker 9: as he walked in, that's I think that's on them.
• 13:52
  Speaker 9: And I think some of the people that were angry
• 13:55
  Speaker 9: that I did that, they didn't really have a problem
• 13:57
  Speaker 9: when Mandamn he visited with the White House too, So
• 14:02
  Speaker 9: like if we refuse to talk to the other side,
• 14:05
  Speaker 9: I mean, that's the only one that really loses, that's America.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, he might be following the Bill Clinton model.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: You know, back ninety nine Bill No, No, No, ninety
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: two one. Bill Clinton saw that the party, after all
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: these defeats from you know, they lost, losing a Rag
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: and a Bush, Democrats were really on the outs, so
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: they went far to the left. They were left wing
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: wacko kook's. Bill Clinton decided to be the common sense
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: moderate and lead the party back to the middle, and
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: that's how he got the nomination. Fetterman might be thinking
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: that right now, with all the left wing crazies in
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: the Democratic Party, he'll be the moderate. He'll be the
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: common sense Democrat and lead them back to the center
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: and back to victory. So Fetterman was the only Democrat
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: not going after the president for Iran. That's bizarre. You know.
• 14:59
  Speaker 9: I'd like to remind I colleague over in the House
• 15:02
  Speaker 9: that I ran massacre at thirty thousand of their own people.
• 15:05
  Speaker 9: Right now, this war is not about the Iranian people.
• 15:08
  Speaker 9: It's about this poisonous regime. And that's why I'm proud
• 15:12
  Speaker 9: to stand with our military. I'm proud to stand with
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: Israel too. I might be a Democrat, but in this
• 15:18
  Speaker 9: specific case, the President is absolutely correct.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: It's a courageous thing to say if you're a democrat.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: So anyway, we'll get back to this. We'll take some calls.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Next coming up, we'll get to our old buddy, Neil
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: saidaka the nicest guy in the world and the most
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: talented guy. Will get to him. Coming up. Hey, we're

• 17:21
  Speaker 10: Good? Thank you?
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Mark?
• 17:22
  Speaker 10: You know you mentioned you're going to have a Neil
• 17:24
  Speaker 10: Sedaka on later. He is a great talent. You know,
• 17:28
  Speaker 10: I guess sixty sixty two him, Frankie Avalon Paul Anka.
• 17:33
  Speaker 10: What great music. Now there was talent. And I just
• 17:37
  Speaker 10: want mentioned real quick. My sister was on American Bandstand
• 17:41
  Speaker 10: with Dick Clark and she met Neil Sedaka and he
• 17:45
  Speaker 10: actually asked her out, and my stupid sister said no, Yeah,
• 17:50
  Speaker 10: so there was my per What a dope.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so there was my inn.
• 17:54
  Speaker 10: You know, I could have been you know, I have
• 17:56
  Speaker 10: a decent voice, I can say.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: I don't think so that was my inn.
• 18:00
  Speaker 10: I could have been somebody. But now just another bum
• 18:03
  Speaker 10: walking around in Polucaville.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: He's quoting from on the waterfront. But yeah, I mean
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: I hate well, actually, let me think now, Neil Saidaka
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: the love of his life was his wife, Liba Liba Sidaka,
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: whose family owned the Big hotel in the Catskills where
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: a very young Neil Sidaka worked and met her there.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: So I think he might have wanted to go out
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: with your sister, but I think he was already on
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: the way to marrying Liba Siedaca even back then. Let's
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing. Good morning, Mark,
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: that's Mike.
• 18:38
  Speaker 11: I wanted to mention Neil Sidaka, but just one thing
• 18:41
  Speaker 11: before that, one way to Democra the Republicans can modify
• 18:44
  Speaker 11: the Democrat to just say that Komane was in the
• 18:47
  Speaker 11: Epstein files.
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: He could have been.
• 18:51
  Speaker 11: But yeah, you know the other thing about Sadaka other
• 18:55
  Speaker 11: than is obviously I'm not telling how far by you
• 18:58
  Speaker 11: for me to tell you, but all associate vote for others,
• 19:01
  Speaker 11: you know, I mean being a member of the brill
• 19:03
  Speaker 11: building and that that whole crowd over there is quite remarkable.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he wrote, he wrote the Love Will Keep Us Together,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: a huge hit for the captain and to Neo. What
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: else I'm trying? What else did he write, Henie Francis, Oh, yeah,
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: of course, I'm sorry.
• 19:18
  Speaker 11: Now do you know that the biggest song one of
• 19:21
  Speaker 11: his songs.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Well, that's a long story. Sinatra started to sing the
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: U Hungry Years and concert and it was a it
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: was a very touching, very serious ballad from Neil Saidaka
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: about he and his wife when they struggled when they
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: were poor, the Hungry Years, and it was all about
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: how he misses the Hungry Years. And Sinatra started to
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: sing it in concert and then dropped it after a
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: few weeks and Neil Sidaka asked me once, could you
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: ask Sinatra why he dropped us? And I asked him,
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: and it's a beautiful song. It's beautifully written. He said,
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: I didn't understand the song. I didn't get it. He said,
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: you missed the hungry Yers. I miss when we were poor,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: he missed when we lived in this little apartment.
• 20:04
  Speaker 11: Move back there, you just go back, and so Sinatra,
• 20:09
  Speaker 11: it's funny.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, thanks for calling. There was another song.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: It was a huge hit Barbara streisand People nineteen sixty four.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: It was the biggest hit in the world, People who
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Need People are the luckiest people in the world. And
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: Sinatra had always sing the currenty we would never sing it,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: and they asked him why. He said, I don't understand
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: the song people who need people are the luckiest people.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: What the hell does it mean? And he was right,
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Rich and Myrtle Beach. Rich. How you doing?
• 20:38
  Speaker 12: Hey?
• 20:38
  Speaker 10: Thanks Mark? You know, Neil Saidakh was also good friends
• 20:41
  Speaker 10: with Arthur Spooner on The King of Queens towards the Yeah, Jerry,
• 20:45
  Speaker 10: that's series.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: One, Jerry. Still, Yeah, we'll talk about Neil Sadaka and
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: the next hour we'll get him. He was a real
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: New York guy. He lived right over there, fifty eighth
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: in Park. Let's go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: you doing.
• 20:56
  Speaker 12: Good morning, Mark, I'm okay, Mark. Thanks for talking about
• 21:01
  Speaker 12: all the people in the United States who were celebrating
• 21:06
  Speaker 12: the offering of the Komany, Marked, that's nothing compared to
• 21:12
  Speaker 12: what they were doing in Europe. In Europe they were
• 21:16
  Speaker 12: processions celebrating commaning getting whack that in Paris looked like
• 21:23
  Speaker 12: they were blocks and blocks and blocks long, carrying the
• 21:27
  Speaker 12: old Iranian flag, not the new Iranian flag, the murderer's flag.
• 21:33
  Speaker 12: Also in Italy, in London and in Greece. And these
• 21:38
  Speaker 12: people were speaking. None of them had towels on their
• 21:41
  Speaker 12: head like the whack jobs, the green haired monsters with
• 21:45
  Speaker 12: the nose rigs who were protesting in Times Square and Mark,
• 21:50
  Speaker 12: these people they copied George Sorows. They immediately had these
• 21:55
  Speaker 12: massive placards made up with the picture of Don Trump
• 22:01
  Speaker 12: and pe Levy's son that they want to go start
• 22:04
  Speaker 12: the interim government. And their new slogan is right from
• 22:08
  Speaker 12: Donald Trump, make Iran great Again, Mega and it shows
• 22:14
  Speaker 12: a profile of Donald Trump looking forward and at his
• 22:17
  Speaker 12: side pe Levy's son and on the need it says
• 22:21
  Speaker 12: Mega and I'm telling you Mark, the celebrations in Italy
• 22:26
  Speaker 12: and Greece and Paris were massive.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: All right, well, Vincent, that's great to know. Excellent call,
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Thanks for calling. Yeah, we'll get to a Pavlovi. It's
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: the son of the Chavaran who's been leading, you know,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: the way. He wants to go back and run the country.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: From what I hear, they don't want him to. They
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: love him, but he hasn't been in the country in
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: forty seven years. You need somebody who knows what's going
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: on over there. Hey, when we come back to the
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: brilliant columnist Liz Peak. We'll be with us next and
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: we'll talk to her about all of this coming up.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: But first on seven to ten w R.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: Now mark someone on seven ten R.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Well, we're looking for Liz Peak. Hey. By the way,
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: a lot of people have asked about Michael Goodwin. You know,
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: he's been under the weather for a while, but I
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: spoke to him late last week. He's feeling much better
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: and should be back with us on the show probably
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: next week. Well, we'll hope next week he'll let us
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: know when he's ready to come back's taking some time
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: off to but we'll have Michael Goodwin back on the
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: show soon. So that's been tough on Democrats. You know,
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: first they Maduro, they all had to go out and
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: buy Venezuela flags. They already had their Ukrainian flags. This
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: is it's just tough on them. Now they've got to
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: all run around buying Iranian flags and it's not easy
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: on them. And everybody is stunned at some of the
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: Democrats in their reaction. Adam Schiff on the Sunday Shows,
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: when asked should we have taken out Kolmani said, no,
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: very harsh reaction. But anyway, we'll get back to that. Well,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: we got Liz Peak, oh right, the brilliant columnist list Peak.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Of course, you see her all over television and you
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: should check out her site, your website lizpeak dot com
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: if you want great news and analysis and sign up
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: there because you'll get the daily briefing. It's really good stuff.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: Go to lizpeak dot com, lizpeak dot com, Lizpeak. How
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: you doing.
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: I'm terrific. Thanks for having me on.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Hey, great to have you. You know, if you watch all
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: the foreign television Europe, everywhere, there just celebrating the liberation
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: of Iran, the death of Colmany. But if you put
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: on American television, you get the opposite of what is
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: going on here.
• 24:42
  Speaker 13: You know, I've been thinking about this, Mark, and I
• 24:45
  Speaker 13: think party partly, the wing of the Democratic Party that
• 24:50
  Speaker 13: has exposed exposed itself as being somewhat anti Semitic, is
• 24:55
  Speaker 13: sort of taking it one step further. The fact that
• 24:58
  Speaker 13: the United States partnered with Israel is viewed as an
• 25:02
  Speaker 13: offensive thing that we've done, and the fact that we
• 25:05
  Speaker 13: attacked a Muslim nation, you know, just sort of doubles
• 25:09
  Speaker 13: down on that.
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: I guess it's hard to figure.
• 25:13
  Speaker 13: I mean, I think, look, Trump's arrangement syndrome is alive
• 25:17
  Speaker 13: and well and it isn't going anywhere. And the fact
• 25:22
  Speaker 13: that this president did this, of course makes it almost
• 25:25
  Speaker 13: immediately a knee jerk negative reaction from Democrats. But you
• 25:30
  Speaker 13: also see that to some degree on the far right
• 25:34
  Speaker 13: as well, with Candice Owens and Tucker Carlson and these
• 25:37
  Speaker 13: people condemning this action in.
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: Part because again of our ties to Israel.
• 25:43
  Speaker 13: I mean, it's really it's pretty horrifying, and I love
• 25:47
  Speaker 13: these Democrats who are saying it's in the legal war.
• 25:50
  Speaker 13: They have no plan. Do you think that the Trump
• 25:53
  Speaker 13: administration gave a lot of thoughts of sharing their plans
• 25:56
  Speaker 13: with the likes of Chris Murphy or Elon Oh No,
• 26:00
  Speaker 13: I don't think so. I mean so, I think there's
• 26:03
  Speaker 13: a lot to be said here. I must say, I
• 26:05
  Speaker 13: don't know if you saw Pete Hegseat this morning at
• 26:08
  Speaker 13: his breast conference and then also the general in charge
• 26:13
  Speaker 13: of I think Sentcom.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: I thought they just did a fabulous.
• 26:16
  Speaker 13: Job of laying out not just the rationale, but kind
• 26:19
  Speaker 13: of what was going on. I was on Maria Barbromo's
• 26:22
  Speaker 13: show this morning. We had Jack Keenan who said, look,
• 26:25
  Speaker 13: you know, in forty eight hours, the missiles coming out
• 26:29
  Speaker 13: of Iran have been knocked down to fifty percent of
• 26:32
  Speaker 13: the volume that they were. The navy has been crushed,
• 26:37
  Speaker 13: not eliminated, but certainly very badly hurt. There has just
• 26:42
  Speaker 13: been an enormous amount going on, and the Iranians amazingly
• 26:47
  Speaker 13: thought that they could attack the Gulf Arab nations with impunity,
• 26:52
  Speaker 13: and what they've done is now solidify the entire region
• 26:57
  Speaker 13: in opposition to them.
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: So it's a pretty fascinating thing to do.
• 27:00
  Speaker 13: I think it's unbelievably gutsy of this president, because guess what,
• 27:04
  Speaker 13: Politically this is really dicey. When oil prices are up
• 27:08
  Speaker 13: almost thirty percent from the beginning of the year, that
• 27:11
  Speaker 13: is a high cost to Americans, and it's going to
• 27:14
  Speaker 13: be a high political cost to Republicans and to this president.
• 27:19
  Speaker 13: But you just have to say, I give them enormous
• 27:22
  Speaker 13: credit for taking the war to where it should be
• 27:27
  Speaker 13: in the Middle East, which is Iran. And we've been
• 27:30
  Speaker 13: dancing around this for decades, allowing these truly truly evil
• 27:36
  Speaker 13: people who not just slaughter their own citizens happily, but
• 27:41
  Speaker 13: also obviously have attacked Americans repeatedly over the years. We
• 27:46
  Speaker 13: have finally taken it to them, and I think that's great.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I guess you could you could fairly
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: say that the Ayatola was the closest thing to Hitler
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: on Earth today, killing thirty thousand Zone people and month
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: recently wanting to wipe out Israel and the Jews, just horrible, horrible,
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: the main sponsor of terrorism in the world. And then
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: explain to us the obituaries that we're you're right about
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: this at lispeak dot com. The obituaries in the New
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: York Times, in Washington Post.
• 28:17
  Speaker 13: It's staggering, you know, how Kamanie really had poetry in
• 28:21
  Speaker 13: his heart. And you know, I mean, the concept that
• 28:25
  Speaker 13: this fellow was anything but an evil tyrant is so offensive. Mark,
• 28:31
  Speaker 13: I don't know, you know, every now and then you
• 28:34
  Speaker 13: just kind of think, well, these people have just lost
• 28:36
  Speaker 13: their minds. And I think a little bit that's the case.
• 28:39
  Speaker 13: I just cannot imagine a reporter sitting down to write
• 28:43
  Speaker 13: an oh bit about one of the most hated people
• 28:46
  Speaker 13: on the face of the earth. I mean, it really
• 28:49
  Speaker 13: would be writing an obituary about Hitler and saying, well, gosh,
• 28:52
  Speaker 13: he had a lovely place in the mountains, you know.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: It would be like saying stupidity.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: It would be like saying a best selling author, yeah, yeah.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: I mean, you know, yeah exactly.
• 29:06
  Speaker 13: He penned mind comp and oh my goodness, wasn't that
• 29:09
  Speaker 13: a work of genius?
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 29:12
  Speaker 13: I don't know what's wrong with these people, I really don't.
• 29:16
  Speaker 13: It seems to me this is a moment truly of
• 29:19
  Speaker 13: moral clarity.
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: Iran was a great nation.
• 29:24
  Speaker 13: Educated people, freedom for women, all the rest of these things,
• 29:29
  Speaker 13: and it became a murderous theocracy that constantly funded and.
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: Supported terrorism in the Middle East.
• 29:38
  Speaker 13: And that's why, by the way, Saudi Arabia and the
• 29:42
  Speaker 13: UAE and elsewhere have joined pretty happily. I would say,
• 29:47
  Speaker 13: the United States in fighting Iran. I mean, this is
• 29:50
  Speaker 13: not an easy thing for them. They have undoubtedly residents
• 29:56
  Speaker 13: in their own countries who were in league with the.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: Shia Muslim world there.
• 30:01
  Speaker 13: It's going to be a very divisive thing in some
• 30:05
  Speaker 13: of these Arab countries. But the answer is, you know,
• 30:09
  Speaker 13: enough's enough, and they know perfectly well that these are
• 30:12
  Speaker 13: these are bad guys. So, I mean, it's hard to
• 30:15
  Speaker 13: imagine with Israel the United States, the combined military and
• 30:20
  Speaker 13: intelligence capabilities of those two countries and now Jordan, Saudi Arabia,
• 30:25
  Speaker 13: et cetera. Some of those countries are pretty sizable militaries.
• 30:29
  Speaker 13: I cannot imagine this goes on terribly long.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so as soon as they started, Iran started bombing
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, they hit all the neighboring countries. It
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: wasn't that a big miscalculation. It brought all those countries
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: on board with US immediately. What were they do. So
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: what were they think?
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: I think they must have been thinking.
• 30:50
  Speaker 13: You know, actually you probably saw they came out with
• 30:52
  Speaker 13: the thing thing.
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: Well, that was not intentional. It was a rogue military operation.
• 30:57
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 30:58
  Speaker 13: I don't think there's a lot of rogue millie terry
• 31:00
  Speaker 13: groups with their hands on missiles in Iran. But you know,
• 31:04
  Speaker 13: I could be wrong, but yes, I think they were
• 31:09
  Speaker 13: assuming that the Arab countries, which have let's face it,
• 31:13
  Speaker 13: enabled and turned their attentions away from Iran for a
• 31:18
  Speaker 13: very long time, and let this go on, Let Hesbela
• 31:23
  Speaker 13: carry out terrorist attack from Lebanon. Let you know, Saudis
• 31:26
  Speaker 13: aren't exactly keen on the hooties, but let's face this
• 31:29
  Speaker 13: little dingback group, the hoodies have been allowed to run
• 31:32
  Speaker 13: riot around Saudi Arabia, in the Gulf, et cetera. And
• 31:40
  Speaker 13: you know, I think the Iranians just miscalculated. They've just
• 31:44
  Speaker 13: didn't see that they were just ready to say enough.
• 31:47
  Speaker 13: And by the way, they may not have understood that.
• 31:51
  Speaker 13: President Trump and Muhammed Bin Salomon, the de facto head
• 31:55
  Speaker 13: of Saudi Arabia, have been partners, have been working on
• 31:59
  Speaker 13: a partnership for a long time since his first term
• 32:04
  Speaker 13: and that's one of the reasons. I mean, that's one
• 32:06
  Speaker 13: of the reasons that Joe Biden went after MBS so
• 32:09
  Speaker 13: aggressively and was insulting to him. He couldn't stand the
• 32:12
  Speaker 13: fact that Trump had actually worked with the guy. Well,
• 32:15
  Speaker 13: that didn't turn out too well because when Biden wanted
• 32:18
  Speaker 13: more oil out of Saudi Arabia, NBS said, no, thanks,
• 32:21
  Speaker 13: we don't think we're going to help you out.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: So, I mean, I think the.
• 32:25
  Speaker 13: Biden and Obama whitehouses were so incredibly instinctively wrong about
• 32:33
  Speaker 13: everything that they should do in the Middle East, and Trump,
• 32:36
  Speaker 13: you gotta say, has kind of got it right.
• 32:38

• 34:45
  Speaker 1: Houstern, New York, Mark Simone seven ten wor.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Well, Hey, the president will address the country. Actually you'll
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: take a question with the reporters. They'll do that later today.
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: That's coming up. It's already, I mean from the beginning
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: of the strike on I ran from the beginning. He
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: was speaking to reporters all along and answering questions from them.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: They were all a little surprised. Actually he would answer,
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: as they'd had all his cell number. He would answer
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: his phone and give them five minutes each, so, which
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: is more than usually get in a press conference. So
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: he is talking and will continue to talk all day
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: about what's going on. The president also now saying it
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: looks like originally we knew that we got forty of
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Iraq's leaders, we got the Ayatola and another forty leaders.
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: Now that number is forty nine leaders of the country,
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: the government, the military. Forty nine are now dead. The
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: Ayatola had named Ali Lara Janni as his successor. I
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: don't know if he's on the list, but that's who
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: he had just in case anything happened to That's who
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: he'd always designated to be his successor. Ali Laajhani, who's
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: considered a brutal, awful as bad as the Iyatola. But
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: we'll see, we'll probably announce that later today if they
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: got him too. So it's been a tough time for Democrats.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: They don't know how to handle this. They don't know
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: what to attack. As we were talking about earlier, the
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: New York Times the Washington Post horrified everybody with their peaceful,
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: gentle obituary for the Iyatola, describing him as a cleric,
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: a man who wrote poetry. He was the most brutal,
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: evil barbarian on earth. That's how they described him. So
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: if Hitler were killed today, the Post, the New York Times,
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: Washington Post, New York Times would do the same thing.
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: They would describe Hitler as a painter who was also
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: a best selling author. So it's absolutely disgusting the behavior
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: of the New York Times and the Washington Post. And
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: then you've got this television coverage. It's absolutely ridiculous. If
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: you watch the Morning Joe kind of shows, all he
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: keeps saying is there's no plan. If only he had
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: a plan. He doesn't have a plan. Why doesn't have
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: a plan. Well, I guarantee you they got plenty of plans.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: They've got a plan, a very specific plan. You know
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: how they always like to when they talk about Trump,
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: they always like to say he said without evidence that, well,
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: they're all talking without evidence. Now. The reason, I think
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: one of the reasons Trump is so successful when it
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: comes to military operations in the past, the way it's
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: always done traditionally, when a president wants to take military action,
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: there comes a time, a moment where the generals come
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: in and you know, they present you with three options.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: It's always three for some reason. They give you three
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: what they call coah's stands for course of action, three
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: courses of Actually they lay it out for you, here's
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: the three and you pick from one of the three
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: options they give you. That's always the game, it's always
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: the way it's done. But President Trump is the first
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: president not to do that. You don't come in with
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: your three options. But he's going to pick them apart,
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: customize them. And when you lay at your options, he's
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: gonna say, well, what about this, what about that? Why
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: can't you do this? Why can't you He doesn't stick
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: to their three options, and that's it. That's all you
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: get to choose from. We'll see what happened. We're going
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: to learn a lot more. Today we've taken out half
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: their navy. A couple more days, we'll have eliminated the
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: entire navy. We've taken out most of their probably about
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: fifty percent of their missiles. We'll get the rest. Republican
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: Guard headquarters, all that stuff has been taken out. We're
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: destroying all their military capabilities. President has said two weeks,
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: maybe four weeks. Israel, US, other countries, the Saudias, others,
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: all taken out every piece of military, everything they have.
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: They will no longer be a threat to anybody. And
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: we'll see who emerges from the rubble to take charge. Hey,
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: let's talk about let's talk about our old buddy, Neil Sidaka.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: He was a wonderful guy. He was you know, I
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: don't know if you tell you how talented the guy
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: was started very young, first writing songs in the Brill
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: Building that was over at forty ninth in Broadway, the
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: famous Brill Building, and all the great songwriters were there,
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: Burt Backrack and Hal David and Carol King and Neil
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Sidak and all these people, you know, all the other names.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: You know, all the old writing in the Brill Building,
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: although they all told me nobody ever actually wrote in
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: the Brill Building. Oh, when you first started, when you were,
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: you know, an eighteen year old, nineteen year old Neil Sadaka,
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: you went and worked in your little cubicle in the
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: Brill Building. But as soon as you had to hit
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: her too and made a lot of money, you didn't
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: go to the Brill Building anymore. You wrote the songs
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: in your beautiful, plush apartment. Neil Sidaka did that. Burt Backrack,
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Al David, fifty seventh and Second Avenue, the Excelsior, beautiful
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: apartment building, stunning at the time. That's where they wrote
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: all those songs. But Sadaka was a great songwriter, and
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: he finally had a hit record. But I mean, just
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: listen to some of his early sixties and all those
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: early sixties hits, and it was huge. But then he
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: kind of disappeared like the Four Seasons. Frankie Valley, like
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: a lot of those people just kind of disappeared in
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: the late sixties as everything changed, you know, it was
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: more rock and roll, like, you know, all that hippie
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: music and all that. So the beautiful early sixties stuff
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: went away. But he made an incredible comeback in seventy
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: five thanks to Elton John. It was Elton John that'd
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: helped give him a record deal. Elton John was a
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: big fan and he wrote Love Will Keep Us Together,
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Captain until huge hit. But then Sadaka had Laughter in
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: the Rain, big big hit, and then brilliantly decided to
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: do it again a second hit with breaking Up his
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: hard to do but he did it as a ballad,
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: and then Bad Blood. All these seventies hits made him
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: huge all over again. Yeah, and he was a great
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: guy in real life. I spent a lot of time
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: with him through the He's a wonderful guy. Lived fifty
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: eighth in Park and he'd go to all the finest
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: gallows and everything in the Tuxted, but he'd also staytime.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: He'd be in a diner, a coffee shop. He was
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: a fun guy. Wherever he was, somebody's house, a restaurant.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: You'd always go to the piano start playing and singing.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: And when he'd sing laughter in the Rain, and what
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: it sounded exactly like the record. It was unbelievable, how
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: it was uncanny the way he could recreate their record.
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: And he was on my show all the time for
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: weeks and weeks and I mean months, years. He was
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: on like thousands of appearances. But here's just one I found.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: We're talking about the early sixties. You know, there were
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: so many one hit wonders, and I asked him about that.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: Tell me about let's go back to the early sixties
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: in those days, and you had what they used to
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: call these one hit wonders. You know, they have one
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: huge hit like Little Eva Look Emotion, and then how
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: come people like that just don't have another hit after that?
• 42:02
  Speaker 14: That was my fear that I was going to be
• 42:03
  Speaker 14: a one shot one da I remember telling Donny kershe
• 42:08
  Speaker 14: if I could be as big as Jimmy Bowen and
• 42:10
  Speaker 14: Buddy Knox. But everybody had that fear. What happens is
• 42:18
  Speaker 14: you don't have the material, you don't have the stamina,
• 42:21
  Speaker 14: you don't can't can't keep up at the time you
• 42:24
  Speaker 14: do the same thing over and over, and you don't
• 42:27
  Speaker 14: show any freshness or creativity.
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But you know, if you're that big. Let's say
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: you're the Toys and you sing the Lovers Concerto, you
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: got a big number one record, you'd think you could
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: find another song somewhere.
• 42:37
  Speaker 14: You think so, But the record business was very fickle.
• 42:41
  Speaker 14: It was very changeable. It depended on the promotion or
• 42:46
  Speaker 14: radio plays. You know, if a guy walked into the
• 42:50
  Speaker 14: studio and schmied a little.
• 42:53
  Speaker 9: In those days.
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so even though you were a huge start, you
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: had these hit records, you actually had a fear that
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: maybe it would end.
• 43:00
  Speaker 14: I was afraid at the beginning. But you know, I
• 43:06
  Speaker 14: wasn't a rock and roller who could play four chords
• 43:09
  Speaker 14: on the piano. I had a great background in theory
• 43:13
  Speaker 14: and harmony, and yes, I was a concert pianist. And
• 43:19
  Speaker 14: it was also I sang in five languages. In those days,
• 43:23
  Speaker 14: I used to sing, and I was the first rock
• 43:26
  Speaker 14: and roller to go to many foreign countries and sing
• 43:28
  Speaker 14: in their language.
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: Wow, I didn't know that now. I've also seen you
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: where sometimes you just literally in somebody's living room and
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: you'd sit at the piano and play and sing laughter
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: in the rain, and you'd sound exactly like the record.
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: Now a lot of artists can't do that. Didn't never
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: sound anything like their record when they're in concert.
• 43:43
  Speaker 14: Well, I've been very lucky. I do, if I may
• 43:46
  Speaker 14: say so, have a remarkable voice.
• 43:48
  Speaker 12: Oh absolutely, it never has changed.
• 43:50
  Speaker 14: I take care of myself. I get enough sleep, I
• 43:53
  Speaker 14: get enough exercise, and I don't abuse my voice. I'm
• 43:57
  Speaker 14: going to next year in my fiftieth anniversary, and I'll
• 44:00
  Speaker 14: have the same voice. I can get into a taxi
• 44:02
  Speaker 14: in New York and the driver I won't even turn around,
• 44:05
  Speaker 14: he'll say your voice.
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: Well, you know you're right, that's an Those things were
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: the few singers that when you talk, you sound like
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: when you're sing.
• 44:13
  Speaker 14: Yeah, Tony, you know what's funny.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: The biggest hit he ever had in his career, the
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: single biggest hit people in America had never heard. It
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: was actually in Great Britain. I'm trying to see if
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: I can find it here. I mean it was a
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: guy named Tony Christie. Tony Christie was how do you
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: describe me? He was like the Tom Jones of England
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: at the time. He has similar voice and Neil Sedaka
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: wrote a song for him, Is This the Way to Amarillo.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: It became the biggest hit in Europe and it was revived,
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: like in the two thousands in a video. Somebody put
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: it in a video, became a hit all over again.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: It sold hens and millions of copies. It's in the
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: Guinness Book of World Records. It's one of the biggest
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: selling singles in the history of the world. And nobody
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: in this country ever heard it. That's the one thing
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: that bothered Neil Sadaka. We said, here it is. It's
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: a guy named Tony Christie. Well, if you listen to it,
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: you'll get addicted. Who downloaded? Is This the Way to Amarillo?
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: Tony Christie? It was the biggest hit Nil Sadac ever had,
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: the only song he ever wrote that made the Guinness
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: Book of World Records for sales. And it bugged the
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: hell out of them that people in this country didn't
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: know it. So he recorded it once and tried to
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: make it a hit here and just didn't go anywhere.
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: And I remember talking about it once and he said,
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: well why couldn't it? I said, it doesn't work with
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: you singing it. You sound like a New York City guy.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: You don't sound like a guy who's going to Amarillo.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: It's a country in Western song so you can you
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: can see a lot of great videos of this online.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: But Neil Sadaka downloads some Neil Sadaka put it, put
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: it in your iTunes. He was an incredible, incredible guy.
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: So what else mayor Mom, Donnie putting out crazy, crazy,
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: crazy statements about Iran? All these democrats. You'll see Connecticut
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: has a really nutjob Senator Chris Murphy, and you got
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: that total whack job Adam Shift those Sunday shows. It's
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: really irresponsible of ABC or other networks to put these
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: guys on the air. You got to put some normal,
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: reasonable people on the air on Sunday when you know
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: the guy's at an absolute left wing kook whack job and
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: elon omar, Chris Murphy an Adam Shift. You should not
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: be putting him on the air in a time of
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: war like that. It's just not right. But they've been
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: attacking him like crazy, Mom, Donnie, you'll give him a
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: little bit of a pass. He's twelve years old, he
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: never had a job before, but there he was declaring
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: this is the most illegal war. It's just in.
• 46:54
  Speaker 5: Today's military strikes by the United States and Israel mark
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: a catastrophe, escalation in an illegal act of war.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: There's nothing illegal about It's certainly not. It's only catastrophic
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: if you're the Ayatola, if you're the Iranian regime. Now,
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: the only fear is that they may have terror cells
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: in the United States that could be activated. I don't know.
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: I don't know, mom, Donnie was asked about that.
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: In the security I've been in close contact with our
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are increasing agency
• 47:27
  Speaker 6: coordination as well as patrols of sensitive locations out of
• 47:30
  Speaker 6: an abundance of caution.
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So there was one incident in Austin, Texas where
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: a guy came into a bar and started shooting hit
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: about ten or twelve people, and it turned out he
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: was a guy who had in his car the Iranian
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: flag and I had Toola T shirt, the Quran everything
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: in there. But outside of that, we haven't seen any incidents,
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: And all over the world we've seen mostly just about
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: nothing but celebration and countries all over the world. Here
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: in the US and in the Los Angeles massive celebration
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: by Iranians. Now we have seen. Where was it to
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: Columbia University? One crazy nut job, you know, yelling and
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: screaming that the US is the evil. Yeah, here's Columbia
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: University Anti Israel group. This is Columbia University. It's going
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: to take them twenty years to recover their reputation if
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: they ever do get it back. But here it is
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: Columbia University. Anti Israel group posts death to America after
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: the US kills Israel and Komene Colombia. Just write it off.
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: It's a total disaster of a university. Just forget about it.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: Just wipe it out of your your mind. Don't even
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: think about them ever again. Anyway, we'll take some calls.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: Next eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. Is
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: the number, eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten.
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: Mister New York mar Simone, he's on sevent ten, WOORKA.
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: Well, let's take some calls. Let's go to Michael Upper
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: east Side. Michael, how you doing?
• 49:05
  Speaker 15: Harry Mark goes good to hear you. Two quick things.
• 49:09
  Speaker 15: Number one, did anyone ever tell you what nels doctors? West?
• 49:15
  Speaker 15: Name means?
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: No? And I never asked you.
• 49:19
  Speaker 15: Go ahead, Well it means in Hebrew it means charity
• 49:25
  Speaker 15: and gave money to Jewish charities and others. Number Two,
• 49:32
  Speaker 15: we strike against the ram happens a very interesting time,
• 49:38
  Speaker 15: the holiday of Pourham, the king of Persia going back
• 49:46
  Speaker 15: to thousand. Well, that's nor the king one.
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: It does fascinating and really thanks for all the information.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: Let's go to H. Stuart in South Carolina. Stuart, how you.
• 49:58
  Speaker 16: Doing, Hey, Mark Cary. You know, I just wanted to
• 50:01
  Speaker 16: mention the phenomenal attack on Iran. The intelligence that it
• 50:07
  Speaker 16: took to do what he's doing is unbelievable, and I
• 50:11
  Speaker 16: don't believe people really appreciate the coordination with Israel and
• 50:17
  Speaker 16: the intelligence that had to happen for the attacks to
• 50:21
  Speaker 16: be effective. This is just now. I'm a Vietnam VET.
• 50:24
  Speaker 16: My my son was you're Vietnam, Yes, sir, Yes on
• 50:30
  Speaker 16: our side, Yes, yes, amazingly. But yeah, it's just it's
• 50:39
  Speaker 16: phenomenal what is going on. It was like when all
• 50:41
  Speaker 16: the pagers blew up. I mean, who does that? But
• 50:45
  Speaker 16: I have never a history nut and I have never
• 50:48
  Speaker 16: seen an attack against the country like this, this effective
• 50:53
  Speaker 16: and with so much intelligence. It is just unbelievable. It's
• 50:57
  Speaker 16: unfathomable what had to go into this. Yeah, and I
• 51:00
  Speaker 16: don't think people appreciate this. And I've been calling for
• 51:03
  Speaker 16: this to happen for a long time. You know, Obama, Biden,
• 51:06
  Speaker 16: they funded a randy, they gave him, you know, millions
• 51:09
  Speaker 16: and millions of dollars and thank god, you know, Trump
• 51:13
  Speaker 16: is doing what he's doing. And these Democrats have lost
• 51:16
  Speaker 16: their minds. If there was a giant flash, you know,
• 51:19
  Speaker 16: they'd be the ones complaining that Trump didn't do anything.
• 51:22
  Speaker 16: It is just unbelievable. I just hope people appreciate what
• 51:26
  Speaker 16: has gone into this.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: Very good point. Stuart, Hey, let me ask you some
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: of me. A long time, longtime law enforcement guy. I
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: haven't heard the name Nancy Guthrie in like two days.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: Is this no?
• 51:34
  Speaker 16: In fact, I was thinking that while I was waiting
• 51:37
  Speaker 16: for you, that that has taken that off.
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: The off the but I never there's nothing to report.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: What does this mean? Is it? No?
• 51:44
  Speaker 16: I mean no, there is And I think this guy,
• 51:47
  Speaker 16: it was a spur of the moment thing. I think
• 51:48
  Speaker 16: she was gone within a couple of days. Yeah, and
• 51:52
  Speaker 16: they're just looking for a body now, they're looking for something.
• 51:55
  Speaker 16: I just apparently he wasn't in the DNA database. So
• 52:00
  Speaker 16: I think, you know, the truth will come out eventually,
• 52:02
  Speaker 16: but I don't know where it is. But it's for
• 52:05
  Speaker 16: him to throw out a glove with DNA, he's got
• 52:08
  Speaker 16: to be completely idiotic.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: All right. Well, great call as always, Stuart, Thanks thanks
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: for calling. Let's go to Steve Maywood, New Jersey. Steve,
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: how you doing.
• 52:17
  Speaker 17: I'm good Mark, how are you? Interesting fact about Neil
• 52:21
  Speaker 17: Sadaka he found out recently. In the seventies he had
• 52:24
  Speaker 17: a little down peer and he worked in the UK
• 52:27
  Speaker 17: on two albums, and he had this backing band who
• 52:30
  Speaker 17: produced and arranged all his songs. Actually who they became
• 52:33
  Speaker 17: the band that his suggestion, He said, you guys are
• 52:35
  Speaker 17: really good, the band ten CC. Yeah, they had a
• 52:38
  Speaker 17: lot of hits in the seventies or bigger in England.
• 52:41
  Speaker 17: But yeah, he suggested to them to form a band.
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: Apparently. Yeah. No, And you know, he did have this
• 52:47
  Speaker 2: down period like a lot of the early sixties artists.
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Late sixties weren't kind to them. So he was in
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: England doing a lot of work over there. I played
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: to that hit he had with Tony Christie. But he
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: did a lot of work in England. That's where he
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: got close to Elton John, and Elton John was a
• 53:03
  Speaker 2: big fan of Neil Sadaka's and Elton John was the
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: one that pretty much arranged the comeback with a record
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: deal and all of that, and that's where Laughter in
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: the Rain launched that huge comeback. Let's go to Steve
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: in Staten Island. Steve, how you doing okay?
• 53:18
  Speaker 18: Mark, longtime fan. I used to be in radio myself,
• 53:22
  Speaker 18: of course, not of your stature. But my Neil Sadaka
• 53:25
  Speaker 18: story is, I'm on the station in Monticello, New York
• 53:28
  Speaker 18: WSU well and one day I had at the station.
• 53:31
  Speaker 18: The booth was in the window and a car pulls
• 53:34
  Speaker 18: up and I see Neil Sadaka get out and it
• 53:37
  Speaker 18: turned out to be with his daughter Dara, and they
• 53:40
  Speaker 18: motioned to me to come in. We were brought him in.
• 53:43
  Speaker 18: Next thing, you know, I'm interviewing them and they were
• 53:46
  Speaker 18: trying introduce the circle. Should have never let you Go.
• 53:49
  Speaker 18: And I believe they had an album and it was
• 53:51
  Speaker 18: very nice, very interesting. He was very nice guy. But
• 53:54
  Speaker 18: the punchline to my story is a year or two
• 53:57
  Speaker 18: lute here I am not in radio in those days,
• 53:59
  Speaker 18: and I'm driving Masine. It's a company called Esquire who
• 54:02
  Speaker 18: am I picking up Neil who family a few times,
• 54:07
  Speaker 18: but he lived in Brighton Beach I Believe before he
• 54:10
  Speaker 18: made it back with Sadaka's back album, I Believe And
• 54:14
  Speaker 18: that's my story.
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: Your radio station was Monticello, that's the Catskills, and that's
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: where he began in the Catskills. Yeah right, MATI right,
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: all right, Well thanks for calling and take care. Yeah.
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: He began at the Catskill Hotels and the owner of
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: the hotel had this daughter, Liba, who Sadaka fell in
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: love with. They then got married. They were married all
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: this time. She was the love of his life. Liba Sadaka. Hey,

• 55:27
  Speaker 10: How you doing, mediocre?
• 55:30
  Speaker 19: Mark Simon?
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: Why mediocre?
• 55:33
  Speaker 19: You know, I'm not happy with this war?
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: What are you? The New York Times? What you Chris?
• 55:40
  Speaker 19: I think they are in favor of it. It's the
• 55:42
  Speaker 19: Maga base.
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: That isn't well, okay, the Maga base. But it's like,
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, he is the most evil guy on earth.
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: I'm not talking about Trump. I'm talking about the Iya
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: told No, that's the New York Times, Okay, the most
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: evil guy on earth, the biggest sponsor of terrorism in
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: the world, a brutal barbarian. It's not a bad thing
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: to wipe them out, is it?
• 56:06
  Speaker 17: No?
• 56:07
  Speaker 19: But these are I mean, there are a lot of
• 56:09
  Speaker 19: bad guys in the world. Last year, two years ago,
• 56:12
  Speaker 19: it's been Putin, Putin, Putin, putin. How about Mugabe? Okay,
• 56:18
  Speaker 19: he's not alive now. But we never felt it incumbent
• 56:21
  Speaker 19: upon us to be going around slaying monsters around the world.
• 56:25
  Speaker 19: The point is and as you know. I mean, these
• 56:27
  Speaker 19: are the same arguments that were made for the Iraq War,
• 56:30
  Speaker 19: and I was one of the ones making them, except
• 56:33
  Speaker 19: I never never cared about the weapons of mass destruction,
• 56:36
  Speaker 19: other than to taunt the New York Times for Saddam
• 56:39
  Speaker 19: Hussein violating the important UN resolutions. Of course I don't
• 56:44
  Speaker 19: care about the UN. But yes, it was Saddam was
• 56:47
  Speaker 19: a bad guy. We're not taking out Thomas Jefferson. The
• 56:51
  Speaker 19: Iraqi people were Western eyes and literates. They were being
• 56:55
  Speaker 19: ruled by a lunatic. Wouldn't it be great to have
• 56:58
  Speaker 19: an Arab Israel in the region. After nine to eleven,
• 57:03
  Speaker 19: we had a lot of fanatics were sort of unleashed
• 57:06
  Speaker 19: around the world. We did have terrorist attacks follow up
• 57:09
  Speaker 19: terrorist attacks here in the US, so Iraq was a
• 57:11
  Speaker 19: good magnet to lure them all and fight Americans there.
• 57:15
  Speaker 19: I mean, the argument there instead of here did make
• 57:18
  Speaker 19: some sense right after nine to eleven, because there were
• 57:20
  Speaker 19: a lot of copycat attacks. Democracy didn't really work. We
• 57:26
  Speaker 19: stayed there for twenty years. I would also say this
• 57:29
  Speaker 19: was immediately after nine to eleven when cleaning up lunatics
• 57:32
  Speaker 19: in the Middle East was a better idea and furthermore,
• 57:37
  Speaker 19: to the country. I mean, compared to what's happening to
• 57:39
  Speaker 19: our country right now. The country in the year two
• 57:43
  Speaker 19: thousand did not have forty million illegals. We hadn't just
• 57:47
  Speaker 19: had a president who brought in to a minimum two
• 57:50
  Speaker 19: million illegals, lots of them criminals, lots of them murderers
• 57:54
  Speaker 19: and rapists. We didn't have all of the DEI policies
• 57:58
  Speaker 19: on George Soros DA's releasing bloodthirsty, heinous criminals throughout the country.
• 58:05
  Speaker 19: We got a lot of problems, and Americans are being killed.
• 58:10
  Speaker 19: They're not being killed by Iranians.
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: Well, now, wait a minute. There are a lot of
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: dictators and barbarians in the world, but this one was
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: exporting terrorism through the hoodies Hesba everywhere he could too us.
• 58:24
  Speaker 19: Oh my gosh, one to one millions of the illegals
• 58:30
  Speaker 19: Biden let in are doing far more damage. I would
• 58:33
  Speaker 19: to say nothing of the Latin American countries, primarily Mexico,
• 58:36
  Speaker 19: also Colombia. Haha. We've taken care of Venezuela, importing drugs,
• 58:41
  Speaker 19: killing one hundred thousand Americans a year. Oh, I promise you,
• 58:44
  Speaker 19: I can give you a spreadsheet with a lot of
• 58:47
  Speaker 19: countries that are killing Americans, and Iran would come in
• 58:50
  Speaker 19: about number fifty six.
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: All right, but you must be happy at the way
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: this is being done. Unlike Bush, who would have four
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: hundred thousand troops staging on the ground, this is strictly
• 58:59
  Speaker 2: an air campaign. There'll be no boots on the ground.
• 59:02
  Speaker 19: That's good, right, I guess so, I mean, like the
• 59:06
  Speaker 19: last attack, I hope. But part of what I'm saying
• 59:11
  Speaker 19: to you right now, it's like Schroedinger's cat. I'm trying
• 59:14
  Speaker 19: to influence you know about Schrodinger's cat.
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: Wait a minute, does anybody in the control you know
• 59:24
  Speaker 2: about Schroedinger? No, it's not just me, he singer.
• 59:29
  Speaker 19: Well, it's a great concept. So I'm going to explain
• 59:32
  Speaker 19: it to you in my in my idiotic you know,
• 59:34
  Speaker 19: no non scientific way. It was about quantum theory and
• 59:38
  Speaker 19: whether it's a wave or a particle. And Shrodinger was
• 59:41
  Speaker 19: I don't know, he was probably a German, was attacking
• 59:45
  Speaker 19: his own theory, as I recall. But if if if, and.
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: You thought I would.
• 59:51
  Speaker 19: Know about this both ways not, because the bottom line
• 59:55
  Speaker 19: is the important point. You have a cat if if
• 59:58
  Speaker 19: if the if the particle go off, the kit in
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 19: the box, you can't tell the the cat dies or
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 19: the cat lives, but when you open the box, that
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 19: changes what the outcome is. So you're participating, you the
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 19: human by opening the box, looking to see is the
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 19: cattle live or dead is part of what will determine
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 19: whether the cat is alive or dead. So the general
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 19: principle by scientific illiterates, by like me is that by
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 19: observing and and inserting yourself into certain world events, you
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 19: can change you can change their trajectory. So that is
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 19: why I am behaving like Schrotinger's cat.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: By reminder, well today you know you're behaving like Schrotinger's cat.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 19: No, that's not how you The cat is either alive
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 19: or dead. That's the conclusion to the experiment, which I
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 19: just completely horribly described. But look google it.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: You'll get a clear excellenty going to go out to
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: lunch afterwards, but I guess I could stay here. Look up.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: Do you think I would even spell Schrodinger to google it?
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 19: If you miss spell Schrodinger, but put cat after it.
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 19: I am one hundred percent sure you will get this,
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 19: this experience or this thought experiment.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: Well, you've used some big words on this show, but
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: this one.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 19: Tops them all, as with the last attack, when Trump
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 19: claims we had completely, absolutely obliterated Aron's nuclear capacities. And
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 19: you'll recall the MAGA base was heavily against it, including
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 19: Charlie Kirk very strong opponent, Van and me others and
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 19: I maybe not, but I believe tapping Trump on the
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 19: shoulder and reminding him of the promises he ran on,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 19: and that the MAGA base is not happy with this,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 19: though his donors and lobbyists maybe threw olled. I think
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 19: Reuters Reuters did a poll and only a quarter of
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 19: Americans support this, so that may lead him to keep it.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: I would trust.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 19: Well, okay, but the polls actually have been pretty accurate recently,
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 19: well reidinate Silver, he explains it all. They've become shockingly accurate.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 19: Though you know everything, All poles should be looked at
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 19: somewhat skeptically, if we can get them to stop so
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 19: that this doesn't turn into I mean, for me, Americans
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 19: already dead for what?
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 5: For what?
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 19: I would really rather get the illegal aliens killing people,
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 19: raping little girls off our government programs, getting them out
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 19: of the country. You're okay, You.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: The rest of the world, you got to admit this
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: first year he got more out than you probably figured
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: he could.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 19: Right, yeah, not enough. It's he deported like six hundred
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 19: thous that's a lot. Biden brought in two million. Well,
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 19: I know they're just gonna say, now, because we're at
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 19: war in Iran, we have to go clean up the
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 19: rest of the world because they're not doing so well.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 19: Oh sorry, one hundred thousand Americans dying of drugs every year.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 19: We'll get to you with the next president is out there, ever,
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 19: get to American ice.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: Is out there right now, Tom Holman. They're working hard
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: today and tomorrow they'll they don't stop. But what's what's
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: the name of the guy with the cat? I forget.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 19: Cat. I'm telling you, Maximon, you're going to ask one
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 19: of your friends about this, and they're going to laugh
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 19: at you, laugh at you for not knowing what it is.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: I guarantee you. I don't know anybody who would know
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: Schrodinger's cat. Nobody I know. I don't know any of
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: those as Ross Barou would say, what a Ross Paros
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: to say of some point he headed intellectual. I don't
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: know any of those people.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 19: Oh yeah, there was another.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: Great man, all right, So and now why don't you
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: here Wednesday? You're going away?
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 19: Yes, I'm kind of taking the week off. But though
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 19: I do have a boffo column coming. It is, it
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 19: is mostly written. I just need to spruce it up
• 1:04:18
