  Speaker 1: Are you a big Atlantic City fan? One of the
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: landmarks of Atlantic City, the Steel Pier. You remember the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Steel Pier? It's for sale. You could buy it if
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: you want. It's $ 85 million. That's a lot. That's a
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: lot for a pier, especially in Atlantic City. $ 85 million.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: It's a historic attraction. It's right across from the boardwalk.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: It's actually right across from the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: It's 5.2 acres. It's listed by Ryan Serhant. You know
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: that Serhant? He's like the new hotshot top real estate guy.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: A little annoying, that guy. But it's 1,000 feet long.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Classic jersey shirt. It's got the amusement park on it.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: It's got a big towering Ferris wheel. It's got games.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: It's got food. And it's unusual. It's only pure with
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: a built-in helipad. All right. It's a good deal, I guess.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: It's a good deal. Anyway, let's take some calls. Let's
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: go to Keith in Massapequa. Keith, how are you doing?
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: Hey, Mark, how are you doing? First, I want to
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: say I enjoy you on Kudlow.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: You're talking too fast. I can't think that fast. A
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: little slower. Oh, sorry.
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: I enjoy you on Kudlow when you're on with Joe Conch. Really?
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: You've got a TV now. Look at that.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: The reason I was calling, Mark, is I heard.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: That Kudlow is the smartest show on television. It is
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: the smartest show. Everybody should watch that every day. You're
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: obviously a high-brow fellow if you're watching Kudlow every day.
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: Well, he does a great job. You know what I mean?
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: He's very bright, seriously. Very bright. Almost as bright as
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: you are, seriously.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: But whatever. Not quite that bright. But, no, it's the
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: smartest show on television. You can learn more watching Kudlow.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Go ahead. What did you want to say?
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: The reason I'm calling is this thing with Netanyahu, with
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: the mayor. Beside from getting himself in more trouble, Mamdani,
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: that is, with the mayor, with Netanyahu and wanting to
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: arrest him or whatever, wouldn't it be smart for the
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: Jewish Americans in the city, and I'm just saying this
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: as a Catholic man, wouldn't it be smart for them
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: to rise up and say, why don't you leave the
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: leader of Israel alone? It's our greatest ally.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: They say that every day. They've been saying that.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: They always say that.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: It don't seem like they're too organized, though. They're very organized.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: They say it all the time. The president says it.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Everybody says it all the time.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: Well, Trump I know does, yeah, but I just, It
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: just seems like there'd be more rallies against the mayor
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: or something like that with the Jewish Americans.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Well, there have been a few. You don't want to
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: get into the rally business. That's for crazy left-wing Democrats.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: But the Jewish community, very well organized, and they do
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: say that all the time. But thanks for calling. Yeah,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: they do. The mayor, just an anti-Semite. It's just in
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: his blood. Netanyahu's not a criminal. There's no real court
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: that's ever accused him of anything. Well, well, maybe in
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Israel he was accused of– What was he accused of?
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Taking a gift or something? But outside of that, I mean,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that's just little stuff. But the International Criminal Court is
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: not a real court. It's not recognized by anybody except
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: a couple of lunatics. It's not an actual court. It
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: was formed by a bunch of left-wing nuts who put
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: it together. Let's go to Colts Neck. Who is this
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: in Colts Neck?
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: This is Jeff.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Hi, how are you doing? Hi, Jeff. What do you
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: want to say?
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: Well, I tell you, first time caller, I love your program.
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: I was saying it years ago. You should go to
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: three hours. I'm glad you're at three hours.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, you're the guy that's responsible for this. I am.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I am.
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: What the hell's wrong with you?
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I got to get up an hour earlier every day
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: because of you.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Oh, well, come on.
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: It works out.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I never got up that early in my life.
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: I just want to thank you for the support of
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: Trump and the support of the country. We need calm heads,
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: solid heads. and sane heads to get this country back online.
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: Thank you very much.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Thanks for calling. You're a wonderful guy. You'll believe this
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: guy asked because of him I got to get up
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: at 7 in the morning. It'd be great to be
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Harry and Meghan. You don't need an alarm clock. They
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: don't have an alarm clock. What do they need it for?
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: They don't have anything to do all day. It's quite
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: a life they lead. They wake up and try to
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: figure out what the hell to do all day. They're
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: big activity. Go to lunch. Then spend the afternoon figuring
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: out where to go to dinner. That's about it. Then
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: back to sleep. Let's go to Kathy in North Carolina. Kathy,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Hey, listen, don't make fun of Mondami for the, the toilets.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: That's a great idea.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: It is the number one complaint of New York city
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: for tourists or anybody is that there's no availability for
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: toilets anywhere.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: And safe ones.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: And these sound very safe to me.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: And, The reason that he, I think, put one of those.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: There's toilets everywhere. Everywhere there's toilets.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: There's not. You tell me where there's toilets that you
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: can use that are safe.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Okay. Let's take where I'm standing right now. I'm standing
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: here right now. You go one block that way, you
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: got the New York Hilton. You go into the lobby.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: You can't go inside there. Yes, you can. You cannot
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: go inside there.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I do it all the time. Now, listen to me.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: You walk into the New York Hilton.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: I can't believe you just admitted that.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: All the time. You walk into the New York Hilton,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: go to the back of the lobby. There's a Big,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: huge men's room and ladies' room. They're really nice.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: You can use them all. I can tell you 30
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: places within two blocks of here where you can use
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: the bathroom.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: If you want to keep a place clean and people
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: not urinating under overpasses, the homeless people, let them have
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: a effing toilet. That's a great idea.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: All right, but I'm just telling you this toilet. I
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: could name 15 toilets you could use. Within two blocks
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: of here.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: That's the whole thing about Starbucks. People couldn't go there.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: They were using it, and then they shut that down.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: And I don't blame them.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Starbucks, you can't just walk in and use the bed.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: They got codes.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: But don't.
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, anyway.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: So, hey, by the way, if you're worried about a restaurant,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: how clean is the kitchen? Always, when you go to
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: the restaurant, just go look in the bathroom. If the
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: bathroom is clean, the kitchen is clean. If the bathroom's
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: a mess, hasn't been cleaned in a while, the kitchen's
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: a mess. Because the same exact people clean both the
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: bathroom and the kitchen. You got time for one more?
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Gus in Long Island. Gus, how you doing?
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: Hi, how you doing, Mark?
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Good. What's going on?
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: I wanted to tell you, you know, the way the
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: diners are closing.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: We've got a brand new diner, the Peter Pan in Bayshore.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: It just opened up last month. Beautiful. Everything brand new.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: It's on Sunrise Highway and Bayshore Road in Bayshore.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: All right. Very good. You know, I've noticed that in
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Long Island, a couple of places, brand new diners are
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: opening up, old-fashioned diners. So maybe it's going on a
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: lot in Long Island. Maybe it's a new trend. They've
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: been closing for years, but there's a couple that have
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: opened recently. The Carnegie Deli, as you know, just reopened.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: That's like a real, you know, delis, diners, they were
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: kind of on the outs. Maybe they're all coming back. Hey,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: when we come back, the hunt for Steve Moore. I
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: think he'll be here. We'll see if we can talk
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: to Steve Moore about the Fed rate, about Kevin Warsh,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: about all of that. Coming up next on 710WOR.
