Highlights for Curtis and Larry · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, Natalie, Larry, our audience, you want to stick with
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: us the whole ride this morning from 6 to 9.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Two big issues we'll be discussing later.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Larry is going to the Ed Sheeran concert in Philadelphia
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: at Lincoln Field on Saturday night. A lot, a lot
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: of news surrounding that. So you're going to be able
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: to update us on that. I'm going to support him.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: I'm going to support Ed Sheeran. I think a lot
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: of people are.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Good, good.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: All right. But at least we're going to have eyeballs there.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: So we're not going to depend on third party, fourth party,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: fifth party. Our own Larry Mente is going to be
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: sitting there. Not in the oxygen seats, are you? No, no, no.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: I have pretty good seats. Oh, good, good, good. I
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: have really good seats.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Lower level, straight across from the stage.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Beautiful weather. Family night. Got to take some selfies.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Got to take some selfies so that, Natalie, you can
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: post them.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: We'll see if there's an opening act.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Exactly. Doesn't matter. Like you said, he's such a big star,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: he can just do the whole show.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: He does, usually. So, yeah, I think he was doing
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: a favor. Manny's going to regret that.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: All right, number two, Natalie has brought to a conclusion
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: a story about the stolen letter that I was able to,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: let's say, physically remove out of the hands of the
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: mail thieves on their motorbikes. By the way, we're going
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: to talk about this story later on, the e-bike problems
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: in Long Island. These two motorbikes had, guess what, Larry?
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: No license plates. So nothing that I could grab from
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: the rear to maybe eventually track them down. But we're
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: going to give you the resolution because Natalie has been
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: working very hard on this for 48 hours. And we'll
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: leave it to Natalie to give us the finality of that. So, Natalie,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: prep for that.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm prepping right now.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: But right now.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Natalie, finality. I like that.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: Oh, I like that.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Isn't that good? That rhymes. It flows.
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: It flows.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: But right now, based on the success of what we
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: were talking about yesterday, so many young men not wanting
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: to get married. Double the number of young men now
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: don't want to get married as to those who do.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: But if they were to get married and they were
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: to share responsibilities in the house, because that's something increasingly
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: more you have to do now. They're on to definitions
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: as it were, like when my mom and dad and
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: my grandparents, you know, were. holding a household, you do this,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: you do that. What do you hate doing in your house?
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: And I got to tell you, every time I've ever
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: had this conversation with somebody, there's always one or two
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: things that always stick out that they wish they never
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: had to do and they dread. They dread every week
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: knowing they're going to have to do it. So let's
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: start with you, Larry.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: What's that? Tell us what that is. For me? Yeah.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Changing the litter. Oh, that's right. You've said that a lot.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: In the litter boxes. Remember, we have now 10 cats.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Nancy goes out, and right before these cats in the
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Kills shelters are going to be euthanized, she rescues them,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: she socializes them, and then she adopts them out in twos.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: But in the interim, they're with us. So we've had
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: as many as 16. We're down to 10 now. You
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: can imagine how many litter boxes have to be changed.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: And Nancy looks at me and says, well, guess what?
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: You know, you're a part of this family, right? We're
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: taking care of these cats. Your job is you got
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: to change the litter boxes. And that means for me
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: twice a day. Nancy does it a little more during
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: the day. So you would never know there were any
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: cats around unless you saw them. But I got to
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: do it before I come here. And then I got
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: to do it. Late at night before I'm ready to
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: get a few hours of sleep. Do you know what
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: it's like with the scoop?
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: That's so horrible. With the mounds. Well, he suffers. Well,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: wait a second. It's something I'd rather not do.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: They have these machines that do it automatically.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: What about those? No, Nancy is old school.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Remember, she's been raising cats, and she was a little
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: girl in Bohemia and Long Island. when she and her
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: mother would be rescuing cats. So I got to tell you,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I dread that.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Is she really old school or does she just like
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: to see you do something around the house?
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: She loves watching me do that because she knows that's
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: something I'd rather not do.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: I can understand that because it sounds, you know, it's
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: a little poppy, a little smelly, a little nasty.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: I get that.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: The one that I hate to do makes no sense
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: at all. It's emptying the dishwasher. It's probably the simplest
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: task in the house. It doesn't take a lot of effort.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: It doesn't even take a lot of time.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: You and Dawn are the same person. You're exactly the
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: same person.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: It's amazing. I don't know what it is.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Every day I have to unload the dishwasher because she
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: just leaves it. Now she doesn't let me do anything else.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: I am so lucky.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: I don't have to clean because she thinks I'll screw
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: it up. You know, there's a certain way she wants
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: it done. So I don't have to do anything. I
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: never have to cook. I never have to clean. I
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: never have to do anything. But for some reason... Some reason,
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: everything gets left in the dishwasher all the time. It
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: was left there when I went there this morning, and
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: when I get home, it'll still be left there, and
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: I'll be the one to put it away.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: So that's my job, my only job.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: I bet you I'm exactly like Dawn, too. Does she
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: rearrange dishes? the dishes in the dishwasher when people put
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: them in i'm like oh no no no the small
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: plates do not go on that side they go on
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: this side.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: And it doesn't matter oh it does for me this
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: is an argument i have all the time it doesn't
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: matter they're all gonna get washed don't worry about it
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: so yeah she does the exact same thing and explain
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: that just a neuroses right It is.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: It probably is. But I feel like, you know, sometimes
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: people put dishes and they're a big dish next to
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: a little dish. I don't think a little dish is
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: going to get cleaned as much.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: So I have to move it.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: If you have the big forks and the little forks
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: next together, they're getting too bunched up.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. It's not that.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: You just want to show your domestic dominance. You want
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: to be able to say, this is my territory. You
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: messed with it. Let me show you how it's done
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: because none of it makes sense.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: A domestic dominant cutlery person. Instead of being a dominatrix,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: you dominate with the....
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: If that is the only thing I have control over
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: in my life is the dishwasher, I am in.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: A sad state of affairs.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I just want to ask you. Then why do it?
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Then why are you doing it?
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Because it is the only thing I have control of.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Before you put everything in the dishwasher, do you clean
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: off the plates? Of course I do.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: But people say you shouldn't do that.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: I do. I do.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: And do you use Cascade? Do you use Cascade?
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: No, I don't.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: That's what we grew up with.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: You know what?
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: What do you use? These little things you put in, right?
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: I use the little pods from BJ's.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the little pods. I use the exact same thing.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: We're the same family. It's amazing.
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: You have an obsession over your dishwasher. But I also have.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: An obsession of emptying it because I can't stand it.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: And this is what happens. The same thing I think
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: happens in my house. We'll get there and somebody wants
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: to put it in. They'll open it up and they'll
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: notice that it's dirty. They'll close it and go.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Like, why didn't somebody take care of this? Like they're
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: the master of the house. And it's probably the kids, right?
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Well, the kids will just dump it in the sink
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: and walk.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: So they don't care.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: That is so weird, though, man. You are the same
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: person on so many different things because I thought that
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: was only her that did that.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: It is the weirdest thing.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: I'll call her in the other room and I'll say,
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: explain to me why that cup has to be here
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: instead of there. And she'll give some banana reason like
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: you just gave.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: Dawn is my favorite person I've never met.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: I've never met her, but I love her.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: So placement in the dishwasher of the different items.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: It's like if I moved it. You would know that?
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Like if all of a sudden you were away temporarily
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: and I went in there and I mixed and I
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: put things around and you came back and you opened
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: it up, you would know that plates and cups were
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: moved around into a different position?
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: That's not the point. The point is... Wait, wait, wait.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: No, no, no.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: Before she answers... She's freaking out. Yeah, because I'm going
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: to tell you why. It's only because you're wrong. See,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: however you did it, you're wrong. You are now treading
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: on my territory. So I need to show you. Look,
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: she's smiling. I need to show you how to do
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: this right. Even if it doesn't make any sense.
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: You know what I'm smiling at?
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: The talkbacks are flying in. So you know how to
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: do it. Leave us a talkback.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, how can people get in on the talkback, Larry?
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: You go to the iHeartRadio app and leave us a talkback,
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: and you could win. Curtis Lee won Larry Mendte in
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: the morning t-shirt. We give them away every day. It's
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: going to be awarded to the best talk back of
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: the morning. And while you're on the free iHeartRadio app,
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: be sure to set a preset for 710WOR. And don't forget,
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: and we'll do this today, the best talk back of
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: the week takes home a C-Crane radio. For the listener
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: who demands better, C-Crane radios with legendary reception. So let's
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: turn this topic around a little bit. Not just what
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: do you hate doing. What do you hate your wife
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: doing to show you that you're wrong? This is very personal.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: This is very personal. No, I bet you, I bet
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: you everybody has something. Everybody has something that they tried
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: to do to help out. And then they were shown. no,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: that's not the way.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: You do it.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Ooh, ooh, ooh.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: I'm a sweat hog here. Welcome back, Carter.
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I'm raising my hand. Oh, it's a placement of items
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: in the refrigerator.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Perfect. I have a certain way of putting items in
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: the refrigerator. The moment Nancy sees it, she just completely
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: rearranges it.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: And it bothers the hell out of me. Like, it
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: was fine before.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: Now I can't even find what I'm looking for.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: I love this.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: This is turning into a man grape club. I really
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: love this.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: But it is true.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Keep them coming.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Because I'm telling you, I know that I bought this.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: I know that I put it right here. I don't
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: think Nancy took it out of the refrigerator. So now
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: I spend an additional 10 minutes looking for it. Sometimes
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: I can't even find it. And she says, well, why
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: didn't you look right here? I said, well, why did
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: you move it?
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: And I think they do it to drive you crazy,
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: to think you're going insane. Like, I know I put
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: it here, but they'll move it just to make you...
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: You know, it's like the movie Gaslighting, where they turned
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: on the lights a little bit all the time so
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: the person thought they were crazy.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: That's what they're doing. It is a woman's plot. They
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: have meetings. I know they have meetings.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: Why did any of us get married is really the question.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: No, I love her.
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: Anyway.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Up next, we're going to go on memory lane to
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: two things that you were involved with in growing up
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: because you're Jersey Shore guys and girls. And I was there.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time there. The Steel Pier
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: in Atlantic City. It's like.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: One of the, I would say, one of the 20
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: wonders of the world.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I can never understand how you could stay out there
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: with everything on top of it.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: It's amazing. Now it's up for sale.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: So they're not taking a ball and chain to it
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: and demolishing it. They're just going to sell it to
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: somebody who's going.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: To upgrade it. When we get back, we'll be able
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: to let you know about the Steel Pier.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Plus, we have Richard Marks tickets at 825.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Oh, this issue of Macklemore separating from the tour.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: It was the opening act for Ed Sheeran. Continues to
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: grow and grow and grow. It has a global following now.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Everybody's weighing in on it, one way or the other.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: It's like nobody's saying, ah, no biggie. They're all weighing
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: in on it. Our friend here, Larry Menti, is not
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: just going to weigh in on it with your opinion.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: You're putting your money where your mouth is. You're going
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to Lincoln Field, Philadelphia, Saturday night, big concert. A lot
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: of focus and attention. Let me give you an idea
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: who you may meet outside, okay, outside. The pro-pally groups
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: have already summoned people from around the region, the flyer reeds.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Gaza is our compass. Billionaires, Zionists, and warmongers out of Philadelphia.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Will you confront them on your way in or are
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: you just going to go to your seat and enjoy
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: the concert?
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: I think they'll be kept from me because what you
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: haven't read is that there's going to be an army
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: of Philadelphia police. Jeffrey Lurie has already called the city
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: and the police have said the use of the word
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: army is theirs. The police force said there will be
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: an army of Philadelphia police. At the concert, in the venue,
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: and outside the venue. So unlike New York, that sometimes
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: doesn't handle these things, other cities do. And so I
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: think that they'll be kept far, far away, and they're
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: not going to be able to get anywhere near the
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: people going in. They're not going to get near the cars.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: They're not going to get near the venue. They're not
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: going to get inside.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: We'll see.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, look, you're not supposed to have signs inside.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: So we'll see if any of the signs make it inside.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: But it is fascinating to me how Ed Sheeran now
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: who has spent his entire life trying not to be controversial,
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: staying out of things. He even put out a statement saying, listen,
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: I have political opinions too. I just don't express them
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: on stage or through my music. And so, and I
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: think that's what people appreciate about him. That's why we're going.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: You see, I think what's happened here, whereas initially Ed
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Sheeran decided to heed the warnings from the venue owners
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: led by Robert Kraft. Robert Kraft has admitted he got
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: on the phone. He didn't just tell Ed Sheeran, I'm
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: not going to let you use Gillette Stadium. That's the
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: next venue he would have gone to with the whole entourage,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: including Macklemore.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Two dates. I'm not going to let you use it.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: And there are others who have joined me and they're
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: not going to let you use it as long as
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Macklemore is.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: On the tour.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: And that's when Ed Sheeran said, well, it was a
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: The promoters. The promoters made the decision that McLemore had
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: to go. I think what has happened is it isn't
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: so much Ed Sheeran. He'll survive this.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Not a problem.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: But he's going to get hammered along the way. Bob
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Kraft doesn't realize this. He's made McLemore a martyr. If
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: you notice, Macklemore isn't saying anything else.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for the crazies, he's made him a murderer. I know,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: but he's going to be a martyr. This is my prediction.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I could be totally wrong on this. You know, B.B.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Is set to speak at the— General Assembly United Nations
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: on next Thursday, the 24th, towards the end of it.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't doubt that Macklemore shows up at one of
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: these many anti-BB demonstrations and puts on a free performance,
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: which will gin up the crowd. Maybe.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, but who cares?
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: But he's a martyr right now.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: Yes, except that what you're not talking about is the
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: fact that people like me now want to support Ed
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Sheeran more than ever. This happens all the time with
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: the far left. They think because they're the loudest voices
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: and they make the most noise that they're in the minority.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: They never are. And that's why I'm.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Always I'm always suspicious of polls because Republicans are undercounted
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: always by two to three points. Remember, remember when the
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton Trump race, she was shocked.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: He was shocked.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: He didn't think he was going to win because the
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: polls didn't show you what was happening because Republicans and conservatives,
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: they keep quiet.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: They just take action. You know why?
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: Because they're too busy with their jobs. They're too busy working.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Everybody else out on the streets apparently has all this
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: free time in the world. But no, they're too busy
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: with their jobs and they get out and work. So
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: you watch this Ed Sheeran concert tonight. It already is
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: a sellout. There's going to be people trying to get tickets.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: because they want to support him.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Now, though, this is what they're saying about the remaining
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: dates in North America, which includes Lincoln Field, that you're
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: going to Saturday night in Philly. Fans are demanding refunds
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: after Macklemore was pulled, so you'll be able to see
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: that if there are any empty seats. And ticket prices
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: have dropped after all the groups dropped out from Ed Sheeran.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: I read the exact same article you just read. I
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: read the exact same article. I don't buy any of it.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: And they quote, They've dropped as low as $ 70. No,
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: I've been checking tickets. $ 70 is in the very top
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: row to the side. $ 70, which would normally be the
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: price of one of those tickets. I think people are
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: trying to use their own political opinions to stir up something,
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: and it happens in newsrooms all the time. That was,
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: if you read the same article, it was from NBC10.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: And trust me, I used to work at NBC10, and
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: I know the people that are writing those articles. And
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: So they're looking– I'm not saying they're biased, but I'm
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: saying they're looking for a story. So they went into
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: it thinking, oh, guess what? People are going to be
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: not going to the concert tonight because they support Macklemore
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: and they write the piece to support what their opinion is.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: But I want to take your pulse. Would there be
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: any price that would be too high for you to
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: show support for Ed Sheeran at Lincoln Field on Saturday night?
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: Let's assume the prices actually were going up. Okay, you're
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: driving me crazy. It's Lincoln Financial Field, and it's Ed Sheeran.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Ed Sheeran.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: But just imagine if the price of a ticket skyrocketed
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: to like $ 1, 250. Would that prevent you from showing support
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: and being in solidarity in that stadium?
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: Well, yes. And you know why?
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: Because then I'd know, well, look, he's getting so much support.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: The ticket prices are going up high. They don't need me. But,
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: you know, Dawn feels the same way. She's going to
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: just to support Ed Sheeran. And she'll be talking about
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: it on the air. and trying to get other people
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: to go and show support. Well, I think that what
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: nobody realizes is there's two sides to this. And there's
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: a side that's like, this is unfair. This is the
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: left trying to now impose themselves in everything. And there's
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: going to be a backlash to it. And that's the
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: whole reason I'm going.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Well, it's a generational thing. I keep telling you this, Larry,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: when you're talking about people under 30, They firmly stack
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: up with McLemore.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Firmly, without a doubt.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: You'll see very, very few of the Gen Zers who
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: are saying, oh, I'm going to stick with Ed.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: What's his name again? I keep missing out. Ed Sheeran.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: No Ed. No second Ed.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: So I would say it's more, again, of a generational
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: split like it is with our partners. like it is
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: with most things taking place around the country and around
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: the world.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: But we'll see because you're going to have eyeballs right there.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: What I want to compare it to because– The other day, yesterday,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: you played the cut of AOC, All Out Crazy, Alexandria
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Ocasio-Cortez being asked, if you were in the car, AOC,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: and the Ed Sheeran song came on, would you listen
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: to it? And she said, absolutely not. Well, let me
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: tell you this. If I were AOC, and I don't
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: share her opinion, if Bad Habits was on or Shape
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: of You, these danceable songs that I love, you're damn
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: right I'd be listening to it.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Come on.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: That's a song that's in your head. The same way. Now,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: you can make the argument about Roger Waters and Pink Floyd.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: He clearly was anti-Semitic. I mean, he crossed the line.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: But I've talked to so many Jewish people who grew
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: up in my era because, you know, it's a baby
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: boomer thing.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, Pink Floyd, The Dark Side of the Moon.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I played that final so many times I wore it out.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: If that came on classic rock now. You know how
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: many Jewish people would listen to it? They hate Roger Waters,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: but they love the music. I think you can separate both.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: But no, I won't listen to it. The Ride of
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: the Valkyries, right?
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: Oh, no, everybody can separate. Everybody can separate. But maybe
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: you're leaving out the most famous one ever. The most
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: famous one ever was when the Beatles were on their
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: American tour and they were down in Texas. And John
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: Lennon said, we are now more popular than Jesus Christ.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: And he was saying.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: It in ridicule of people that were following them, not
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: to take a blast at Jesus Christ or to ingratiate himself.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: And yet he said it. And yet he said it.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Was that before or after he smoked a joint? Because
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I think he actually believed it. I think he actually believed.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: And then they banned them, remember, on radio stations. They
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: wouldn't play. Some venues wouldn't have them. And then he basically,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: it's a joke.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: It's a joke. I really didn't mean that. Yeah, but in.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: Interviews since then, you know, he has said many times,
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I was talking about this is ridiculous. Look at the
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: way all of these people are praising us and yelling
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: for us. This is ridiculous. We're now more popular than
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: Jesus Christ, which was complacency. Completely taken out of context.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: But that's okay.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't you have loved to have been in that room
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: with the other three Beatles when they were getting all
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: that blowback? John, did you have to bring up Jesus?
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: Of all the people. Imagine the manager. In Texas. Exactly.
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Of all places.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Joe Neumeier, WOR movie admitted host and film journalist.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: And Joe, I was looking forward to talking to you
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: because I just.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Saw that Spider-Man is now domestically the best-selling movie at
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: all time, 937 million.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: What did you think of that movie again?
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: I'm never going to live this down on my gravestone.
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: It's going to say he wasn't crazy about Spider-Man. I
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: liked it. I wasn't crazy, but I liked the other
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: ones more. But I'm really happy that it's a movie
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: that people have embraced. They've gone to the movie theaters
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: a zillion times to see it. It's the number one
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: movie that beat The Force Awakens of all time. And
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: I'm happy for Spidey. And he's a New York guy.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: You called it slow, right? You said it was a
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: little slow, right?
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: I called it a little slow. Yeah, it's a little long.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: And it's a little bit of a downer. But you
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: know what?
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: What do I know?
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: What do I know?
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: I know. People are going back to see it two,
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: three times. Oh, my gosh.
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: Rub it in, Larry.
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: There I am, like, you know, sitting alone being like,
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: why is everybody going to see Spider-Man? But I liked it.
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: I just wasn't crazy like the other ones.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: Joe, you proved to be like Gumby on this because
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Larry lobbied you and you took it from a three
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: to a three and a half because of Larry.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: But you felt the pressure. You didn't do it because
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: you wanted to.
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: Right, right. But you know what? If you ask me
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: to see it again today, yeah, I'd say, okay, I'll
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: see that Spider-Man brand new. I'd see it again.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Why not?
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: Maybe there's something I missed. Clearly, I'm behind the eight
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: ball on this one. I don't know. But I liked it.
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: I liked it. I just didn't like it as much
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: as those other Tom Holland movies. The first one, Homecoming,
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: all those ones were terrific. But here's the problem. I
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: gave Spider-Man three stars, and I'm also giving Resident Evil
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: this week three stars. So it's sort of like, you know,
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: where am I falling in there? They're all, they're all
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: the same movie to me. And that's not true. Spider-Man
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: is obviously a, it's a really fun movie and it
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: has a lot going on in it. Um, resident evil,
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: which is this week's big movie, I think is also
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: going to make some money. If I can make Spider-Man money,
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: so I could be the number one film of all time,
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: but it's, it's actually kind of an okay horror film. Um,
• 24:58
  Speaker 5: I kind of can't believe I'm saying that because I
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: really didn't like many of those other Resident Evil movies.
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: But this weekend, if people are not terrified by the
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: headlines about AI, they can go to Resident Evil and
• 25:08
  Speaker 5: be terrified by this thing. It's a basic kind of
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: monster movie. It's got sort of references to the great
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: movie The Thing, both the 50s classic and the 1982 remake.
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: And it's just about like a guy who's running from
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: zombies and monsters. And for 90 minutes, by the way,
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: 90 minutes is a very short movie. Now you can
• 25:26
  Speaker 5: go in, be out within two hours. Um, you know,
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: so you don't have to bring your lunch like you
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: have to for the Odyssey or something.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Can you, are you permitted to bring your lunch into
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: the movie theater any longer? I thought they prevent you
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: from doing that, Joe.
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: Actually, Curtis, they give, they, you can bring all your
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: food in or you can buy the food there. People
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: are chowing down and meals at movies now in ways
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: I've never seen before. Like it's like they're having a
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: Thanksgiving dinner or something. So, you know, popcorn is fine
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: for me, but you see people there with the chicken
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: wings and whatever. I don't know. But, yeah, you can
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: bring it in. You can also order, I guess, you know,
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: the three-course meal that they give you at the concession stand.
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: But three stars for Resident Evil. It's a lot of
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: fun if you want to go to it. And it's
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: kind of creeped out. It's got a creepy kind of
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: monster thing. that I haven't seen before, and it's based
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: on the video games, which I've never played, but people,
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: they're very popular. The six previous movies were, that's crazy,
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: going back to 2002, but this one's okay. So three
• 26:27
  Speaker 5: stars for Resident Evil. Like I say, if you want
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: to be distracted from the nightmare that's going on, you know,
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: every day with AI and whatnot, right?
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: So you gave it three stars? You gave it three stars?
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: It's going to be a huge blockbuster.
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: Well, it's... Exactly. If I'm kind of okay on it,
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: then it's like Spider-Man. Then people are going to say, oh,
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: let's go with it. That's the one to go to.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Okay. Well, now, Joe, you said the magic word.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: In the last week, out of nowhere, AI, artificial intelligence,
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: has dominated the headlines. A lot of people still aren't
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: sure of AI. So can you recommend, especially for this weekend,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: any good movies about AI that people can just go
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: back and stream?
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: I sure can, and I'm with your criticism in terms
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: of how scary AI is or how crazy it is.
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: I kind of feel like, why pay your credit card
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: bill now if AI is going to be taking over in.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: About five years?
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: And I'm not recommending that. Let me make sure I
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: put that out there.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: I'm not recommending it.
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: People should take care of their.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: … He's gun-shy now.
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, now I'm like, oh, man, I didn't pay my
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: credit card bill.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: You're sounding like a politician, Joe Neumeier.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, God, no, not that.
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: Here's the thing. I've got some good AI movies, but
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: one or two of them are as terrifying, I think,
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: as what we've got. The one that I'm going to
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: recommend that not a lot of people know about, because
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: we've talked about 2001, A Space Odyssey, of course, and
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: how that... you know, how the supercomputer in there goes crazy.
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: But two years after that came a movie called Colossus
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: the Forbin Project. And it's a very unknown sci-fi movie
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: that kind of is what we're going through right now.
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: It's from 1970, and it's about a supercomputer, an AI
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: system that merges with the Russian, the Soviet AI system,
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: and they threaten nuclear Armageddon on the world. And it's
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: ahead of its time. Not a lot of people know.
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: It's actually on YouTube. You can watch it there. It's
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: directed by the guy who made the great New York movie,
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: The Taking of Pelham, 1, 2, 3. But it's really
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: creepy and good, and it's an unknown sci-fi movie, so
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: I definitely recommend this unknown movie called Colossus the Forbidden Project,
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: but it's a little scary. Then there's, of course, War
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: Games from 1983, which is also kind of scary, but
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: a lot of these movies have to get kind of action-y.
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: And then the Terminator movies we always sort of think about,
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: but the ones that remind me more of what are
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: going on now are like terminator 3 and and even
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: the fourth one terminator salvation they're not as great obviously
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: as judgment day or the or the original but they
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: kind of show how skynet takes over which i think
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: is kind of where we're at right now uh looking
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: at like what's going to happen and then there's spielberg's
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: minority report oh i.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: Love that i was just thinking that when you were talking.
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a really great and scary movie, too, because
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: it's set in the 2050s, and AI knows what you're
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: going to do before you even do it. And then
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: there's the movie called Her, which is both romantic and
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: creepy and unsettling. From 2013, it's with Joaquin Phoenix, and
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: he falls in love with essentially his AI system, who's
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: voiced by Scarlett Johansson. And that very much feels like
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: where we are now. And I'm not giving anything away
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: to say that at the end, there's sort of this
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: moment where the AI systems all sort of go off
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: to kind of be with each other, leaving humans alone.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: And it's a very unsettling ending, but it's a great movie.
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: And it's called Her from 2013. Like I say, it's also–
• 30:01
  Speaker 5: it's got all these things in it. It's about a
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: guy falling in love with his– essentially with his iPod.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Or with his cell phone.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: I'm really– Having second thoughts for having asked you about
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: all these AI movies, it's going to scare the hell.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: Out of people even more.
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of feel-good movies about AI. Yeah, there's
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: not a lot of.
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: Isn't it amazing, Joe, how far ahead sometimes Hollywood is
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: when it comes to science? All the things in Minority
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: Report that you talked about, they all came true. They're
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: all available right now.
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: They're all right now.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: People often used to say this about.
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: Star Trek, too, right? Star Trek also. I love Star Trek,
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: but people are like, you know, a lot of these
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: guys who designed these systems got them from Star Trek.
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: I had a Hollywood the same thing. Her and Minority Report, Colossus,
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: The Forbidden Project, we're living in that reality now in
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: a lot of ways. Yeah, really ahead of the time.
• 30:54

• 30:59
