Speaker 2: it's funny. The party at the British Embassy yesterday, the
2:00
Speaker 2: party this evening at Christie's the auction House is going
2:03
Speaker 2: to have all the left wing liberal democratic New York
2:07
Speaker 2: d C.
2:08
Speaker 3: Type.
2:08
Speaker 2: They're all fawning all over the guy. What happened to
2:11
Speaker 2: you're no kings thing? Two three weeks ago you're screaming
2:14
Speaker 2: no kings. Now you see an actual king and you're
2:16
Speaker 2: just slobbering all over him. But that's the way things go.
2:20
Speaker 2: He made a wonderful speech yesterday. Nobody knows if it's wonderful.
2:25
Speaker 2: You know, when when you speak like him, everything sounds brilliant, everything,
2:31
Speaker 2: no matter what the hell he s. It was actually
2:33
Speaker 2: a very well written speech, but didn't have to be.
2:35
Speaker 2: You can you can read anything. When you have that
2:39
Speaker 2: sort of royal British accent. Everything sounds brilliant, just like
2:44
Speaker 2: if you got one of those long island accents that
2:47
Speaker 2: you know, how we you you could read. You could
2:49
Speaker 2: read the Magna carta and still sounds stupid, but that
2:52
Speaker 2: actually just sounds great.
2:54
Speaker 4: The challenges we face are too great for anyone nation
2:57
Speaker 4: to bear alone.
2:59
Speaker 2: But see the way he does that, to bear alone
3:03
Speaker 2: you have to like bend and twist the word. You
3:05
Speaker 2: can't just say to bear alone. You gotta twist the
3:08
Speaker 2: word up to bear alone.
3:11
Speaker 4: The challenges we face are too great for anyone nation
3:14
Speaker 4: to bear alone. But in this unpredictable environment, our alliance
3:20
Speaker 4: cannot rest on past achievements or assume the foundational principles.
3:26
Speaker 3: Simply endure.
3:29
Speaker 4: As my Prime Minister said last month, ours all.
3:34
Speaker 2: Right, I'm dozing off already now. He sounds brilliant. He sounds.
3:37
Speaker 2: It's great to speak like that, you know, but it
3:39
Speaker 2: doesn't work. And you know, if you got into a
3:41
Speaker 2: road rage with somebody, you roll down the window, you've
3:44
Speaker 2: got to be able to curse and scream.
3:46
Speaker 3: You can't go. I'd rather you didn't do the principal partnership.
3:50
Speaker 4: We must not disregard everything that has sustained.
3:54
Speaker 3: Us for the loan.
3:55
Speaker 2: Now, look, how brilliant that guy sounds.
3:57
Speaker 3: We must not disregard what is this.
4:00
Speaker 2: I don't know what the hell that means. Who knows
4:02
Speaker 2: what the hell he's saying, but it sounds brilliant.
4:04
Speaker 3: The last eighty years.
4:06
Speaker 4: Instead we mist build on it.
4:09
Speaker 2: There you go. So this went on. By the way,
4:12
Speaker 2: while he's speaking in Congress, Pelosi Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries stood
4:17
Speaker 2: giving him a standing ovation, cheering. These are the no
4:21
Speaker 2: kings people, This is an actual king. They're given a
4:23
Speaker 2: standing ovation.
4:24
Speaker 4: The US Supreme Court Historical Society has calculated that Magna
4:29
Speaker 4: Carta is cited in at least one hundred and sixty
4:34
Speaker 4: Supreme Court cases in seventeen eighty nine, not least as
4:39
Speaker 4: the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject
4:44
Speaker 4: to checks and balances.
4:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, I see, they like that.
4:50
Speaker 2: So it was a very well written and very carefully
4:54
Speaker 2: written speech. It had stuff in it to appeal to
4:56
Speaker 2: the Republicans, it had stuff in it to appeal to
4:59
Speaker 2: the demoocrats. These are congress men and women. So he
5:03
Speaker 2: put in that checks and balances, you know, like we
5:06
Speaker 2: need you to check and balance the president. And there
5:09
Speaker 2: was green stuff in there. There was not so green stuff.
5:12
Speaker 2: There was pro Iran stuff anti Iran's very well balanced speech.
5:23
Speaker 2: Listen to that. It was standing ovation. I guess the
5:26
Speaker 2: no kings thing is over. Now you're going to read
5:29
Speaker 2: in Vanity Fair and all those type of publications. How
5:35
Speaker 2: in fact, I've already read these. They're writing left and right.
5:38
Speaker 2: How King Charles is embarrassed by President Trump. He found
5:43
Speaker 2: President Trump to be crude, and he didn't understand his
5:47
Speaker 2: rambling speeches and his ranting and raving. They'll tell you
5:52
Speaker 2: that he was quietly offended by the President's behavior. And
5:57
Speaker 2: now if you talk to people that are the royal expert,
6:00
Speaker 2: that are connected to the royal family, they'll tell you
6:02
Speaker 2: that King Charles loves Donald Trump and gets quite a
6:05
Speaker 2: kick out of him. He finds him very amusing. He
6:09
Speaker 2: likes the honesty of the bluntness. He actually loves President
6:13
Speaker 2: Trump's so don't believe all the vanity fair in New
6:16
Speaker 2: Yorker Atlantic Magazine articles President Trump yesterday. My mother would
6:22
Speaker 2: be oh, yeah, you know. He talked about his mother Mary,
6:25
Speaker 2: who when Trump was a little kid, would watch the
6:28
Speaker 2: Royal family all the time. She loves the Queen. She
6:31
Speaker 2: loved Prince Charles too.
6:32
Speaker 3: My mother would be glued to the television.
6:35
Speaker 5: I also remember her saying very clearly, Charles, look young, Charles,
6:43
Speaker 5: He's so cute.
6:45
Speaker 2: He went on to say his mother had a crush
6:49
Speaker 2: on Prince Charles. So I've actually met I had never
6:53
Speaker 2: met him as king, but I met Prince Charles a
6:55
Speaker 2: number of times, had conversations with him. It's not the
6:59
Speaker 2: most exciting thing in the world. He loves clothes that
7:02
Speaker 2: I actually one conversation.
7:03
Speaker 3: That's all.
7:03
Speaker 2: We talked about his clothes, Turnbull and Asser German Street,
7:06
Speaker 2: all the British clothing. Outside of that, he loves to
7:10
Speaker 2: talk about green stuff, which nobody else wants to hear about.
7:13
Speaker 2: But I mean, he can't say anything bad about him.
7:18
Speaker 2: He's a well But the only thing is, you know,
7:21
Speaker 2: for all his stateliness. He's got a son here in
7:24
Speaker 2: America who he won't speak to. The first wife that
7:29
Speaker 2: was kind of a strange relationship forced on him, Diana.
7:34
Speaker 2: He was always in love with Camilla. It's kind of
7:36
Speaker 2: a nice story, you know. He's married to the hot,
7:40
Speaker 2: effervescent Diana and wants to leave her for the old,
7:45
Speaker 2: frumpy Camilla. It's kind of a nice story in a way,
7:49
Speaker 2: I guess. And they've obviously been very happy together. So again,
7:53
Speaker 2: he'll be all over New York today. Beware of the
7:55
Speaker 2: traffic closures and all the security. Now, some people don't
8:00
Speaker 2: think it's a good idea to have Mom Donnie at
8:03
Speaker 2: this ceremony. It'd be a World Trade Center Area nine
8:06
Speaker 2: to eleven memorial ceremony, and the idea of Mom Donni there,
8:10
Speaker 2: he's not when it came to nine to eleven. He
8:12
Speaker 2: wasn't exactly on our side in that, So you could
8:17
Speaker 2: argue he shouldn't be there. It's offensive, but you can
8:21
Speaker 2: also argue it's good that he's trying to make peace
8:25
Speaker 2: with that. Also, isn't he one of these no kings guys.
8:29
Speaker 2: He's a yelling and screaming no Kings. Now he's going
8:31
Speaker 2: to be with the King. We'll see if he actually
8:33
Speaker 2: shows up later today. Hey, the good news is James
8:36
Speaker 2: Comy indicted again. There's an arrest warrant out for him.
8:40
Speaker 2: When you look at the charges the seashells, it seems
8:42
Speaker 2: kind of silly, seems kind of flimsy for a bunch
8:47
Speaker 2: of sheet. How do you get indicted over some seashells?
8:49
Speaker 2: But keep hearing that this is just the beginning. Superseding
8:54
Speaker 2: indictments are coming. This is just an opening shot. There's
8:58
Speaker 2: going to be other charges and other stuff, witnesses, all
9:01
Speaker 2: kinds of things. Now, call me the problem with Call
9:07
Speaker 2: me two problems. One, he's a dirty cop. He's a
9:09
Speaker 2: very very bad guy. The Russia hoax, the crap he
9:13
Speaker 2: pulled on President Trump. He's worse than.
9:16
Speaker 3: J Edgar Hoover.
9:17
Speaker 2: The problem with j Edgar Hoover was when he got
9:19
Speaker 2: a new president, he would basically blackmail the guy. When
9:24
Speaker 2: Kennedy took office, er Johnson took office, when Kennedy was
9:28
Speaker 2: at for instance, would took office, he and Bobby Kennedy,
9:31
Speaker 2: Hoover would go meet with him and Hoover, a dirty
9:35
Speaker 2: cop head of the FBI, had these guys tailed and followed.
9:38
Speaker 2: And you know, he was famous for having these secret
9:40
Speaker 2: files on everybody. So when he met with the new
9:43
Speaker 2: young president JFK, he showed him his files. So you know,
9:46
Speaker 2: you got you sleeping with this woman, got you having
9:49
Speaker 2: an affair with this woman. You've been sleeping with this woman,
9:53
Speaker 2: you had another affair with this woman. It's to intimidate
9:55
Speaker 2: the president to not fire him, to keep him on
9:59
Speaker 2: and to keep his dis And he did that with everybody. Johnson,
10:02
Speaker 2: he would blackmail everybody basically. So Trump gets elected, brand
10:07
Speaker 2: new to politics, and Komy did the same exact thing
10:11
Speaker 2: to Trump. Trump got elected, Remember, as the president elect,
10:16
Speaker 2: he was at Trump Tower having all the meetings. Everybody
10:19
Speaker 2: would come to meet the new president elected Trump Tower.
10:23
Speaker 2: One of the meetings was all the Justice Department guys
10:25
Speaker 2: call me everybody else. And they met in the conference
10:28
Speaker 2: room up there on the twenty fifth floor Trump Tower.
10:31
Speaker 2: And when it was all over all these people, big
10:35
Speaker 2: conference room, Comy said, man, I speak to you privately,
10:41
Speaker 2: And Trump didn't know what it was all about. But
10:42
Speaker 2: they went somewhere alone and Komy showed him we have
10:45
Speaker 2: evidence of you Russia collusion. We have evidence you in
10:49
Speaker 2: Moscow in a hotel room with hookers, and then he
10:55
Speaker 2: got into the what they called the p tape, the urination.
11:00
Speaker 2: I mean, he shows Trump all this and imagine none
11:03
Speaker 2: of it's true, but imagine Trump horrified. Here's the FBI
11:07
Speaker 2: director showing him this stuff. It's basically threatening him, and
11:12
Speaker 2: he's just like whover. He says, now, only we have
11:15
Speaker 2: seen this, we have not No one else has seen this.
11:17
Speaker 2: But it's a threat. It's a blackmail threat. So from
11:20
Speaker 2: that day for he didn't he didn't fire Coombe. He
11:22
Speaker 2: should have fired Kmy immediately, but he let him stay
11:24
Speaker 2: for a while. But from that day on, I'm sure
11:28
Speaker 2: he never got over that Komy threatened him, tried to
11:30
Speaker 2: blackmail him, try to intimidate him. And then Komy he's
11:34
Speaker 2: pushing that Russia hoax with his old buddy Robert Muller.
11:39
Speaker 2: Remember Komby had been Muller's number two in the FBI,
11:43
Speaker 2: the Justice Department, all of that, so they were a team.
11:47
Speaker 2: And also remember Comy's a very very very bad guy,
11:52
Speaker 2: a real dirty cop. He's done horrible things to people,
11:56
Speaker 2: whether they were innocent or guilty. He's not the point.
11:58
Speaker 2: Roger Stone is a perfect Roger Stone was accused of something.
12:03
Speaker 2: It turned out he was totally innocent, but at the
12:04
Speaker 2: time he was accused of something. But you know roger Stone,
12:07
Speaker 2: where the Alummer hate him. Everybody has to agree.
12:10
Speaker 3: This is the.
12:11
Speaker 2: Most non threatening, non violent arrest you could ever make.
12:16
Speaker 2: He's living in Florida with his wife. His wife is
12:19
Speaker 2: not only elderly, but she's very, very sick as kinds
12:22
Speaker 2: of medical problems. Now, if you had to arrest roger
12:26
Speaker 2: Stone and he has a top attorney, you simply call
12:29
Speaker 2: the attorney and say we're going to arrest him. He
12:31
Speaker 2: has to surrender himself at nine am at the court
12:33
Speaker 2: had That's how it's done. Komi launched the most awful
12:38
Speaker 2: raid on roger Stone. They deliberately did it at four
12:42
Speaker 2: point thirty five in the morning, knowing the wife and
12:45
Speaker 2: him they'd be asleep in bed. He had like hundreds
12:48
Speaker 2: of armed agents with machine guns, oozzies, tanks. Literally, he
12:53
Speaker 2: ran a Normandy invasion up the lawn of roger Stone
12:56
Speaker 2: just to terrify him and his wife. They had helicopters
12:59
Speaker 2: overhead in the inner coastal waterway behind the house. They
13:02
Speaker 2: had scuba divers boats. He invited CNN to come along
13:07
Speaker 2: and shoot the whole thing for television. But mister missus
13:12
Speaker 2: stone asleep. FBI agents break down the door, come in
13:15
Speaker 2: with machine guns, screaming, yelling, I'm amazed the wife survived this,
13:20
Speaker 2: and they take him out and hand. I mean, it
13:22
Speaker 2: was just ridiculous. So whatever Komi gets now, he absolutely
13:26
Speaker 2: deserves just as payback for that one incident. So the
13:29
Speaker 2: seashells it says eighty six forty seven, He's gonna argue
13:37
Speaker 2: that when he grew up in the Irish tavern world,
13:41
Speaker 2: when you said eighty six, it meant throw somebody out,
13:44
Speaker 2: throw a customer out, eighty six and throw them out.
13:49
Speaker 2: So all he's implying is throw out the president. Although
13:53
Speaker 2: he could argue I meant impeach him. I meant something
13:56
Speaker 2: like that. The problem is going to hold up eighty
14:01
Speaker 2: six forty seven in modern day the modern day world.
14:05
Speaker 2: It's also taken a mean, get rid of somebody. It
14:07
Speaker 2: means all kinds of things. And if you're the you
14:09
Speaker 2: can claim play dumb and play innocent. And I didn't
14:12
Speaker 2: really know what I mean, but you're the former FBI director,
14:16
Speaker 2: you should know better. So here's Komy yesterday.
14:18
Speaker 6: Well, they're back, this time about a picture of seashells
14:22
Speaker 6: on a North Carolina beach a year ago.
14:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, his real crime is, if you know Komy, he's
14:32
Speaker 2: actually a big awkward guy. He's an uncomfortable stiff. He's
14:36
Speaker 2: an awkward guy. Which is fine. You can that's good
14:39
Speaker 2: if you're the FBI director, you're the US attorney. You
14:44
Speaker 2: know you can be awkward and stiff and very formal
14:47
Speaker 2: in a courtroom. But if you're going to try to
14:49
Speaker 2: be a fun influencer on Instagram, you're going to try
14:53
Speaker 2: to do fun, kooky Instagram stuff. A big awkward clutch
14:57
Speaker 2: of a guy can't do it. He won't know how
14:58
Speaker 2: to do it, and it's not the seashells. Through the
15:02
Speaker 2: couple of years he was doing this, he put out
15:04
Speaker 2: some of the most embarrassing cringe videos. Everybody would cringe
15:08
Speaker 2: at the stuff he put up thinking was cute or funny,
15:11
Speaker 2: these ridiculous videos of himself. So I think that's where
15:14
Speaker 2: I've got the problems. This is Kobe's lawyer.
15:17
Speaker 3: This president is so spiteful and vengeful.
15:20
Speaker 7: He's determined to put people through suffering, political suffering as
15:24
Speaker 7: much as possible.
15:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can see you could argue that the problem
15:27
Speaker 2: is nobody ever did that more than Komy to people
15:30
Speaker 2: that didn't deserve it. Komy terrified and terrorized and tortured
15:34
Speaker 2: people with those raids on their house over little silly things.
15:39
Speaker 2: So nobody deserves this more than Komy. Here's Cash Battel.
15:42
Speaker 1: James Comy allegedly threatened the life of the President of
15:46
Speaker 1: the United States, and as you all now know, shortly
15:49
Speaker 1: after posting that threat, he deleted that threat and then
15:53
Speaker 1: issued an apology.
15:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the problem is cash Battel. Cash Btel doesn't
15:58
Speaker 2: sound tough enough the FBI director. That's one thing about
16:02
Speaker 2: call me. He's like a big, lurch looking guy. You know,
16:05
Speaker 2: he looks like he could haunt the house and Cash
16:08
Speaker 2: Battalion know when he Cash battellit, he always looks like
16:10
Speaker 2: the it guy that came in to fix your computer.
16:12
Speaker 2: He never doesn't fit the right as Trump would say,
16:15
Speaker 2: He's not from Central Casting, Todd Blanche. Now he looks
16:17
Speaker 2: like an FBI director.
16:18
Speaker 8: Including one where the defendant pled guilty recently to threatening
16:22
Speaker 8: former President Biden, another one that's scheduled to go to
16:25
Speaker 8: trial this summer. Another one indicted an individual was divided
16:30
Speaker 8: was indicted for threatening Tom Homan.
16:33
Speaker 3: Yeah.
16:34
Speaker 2: Now again it seems silly, the seashell thing. But I
16:37
Speaker 2: keep hearing there's other stuff coming, there's other charges coming.
16:41
Speaker 2: There's going to be more to this indictment. So well,
16:44
Speaker 2: we'll see. Hey, we'll take some calls.
16:46
Speaker 3: Next.
16:46
Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten is the
16:50
Speaker 2: number eight hundred three to two one zero seven.
16:54
Speaker 3: Ten, mister New York marximone. Wi.
17:02
Speaker 2: Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to uh, let's
17:05
Speaker 2: go to Blauvelt in Florida. Blauvelt, how you.
17:08
Speaker 9: Doing, Mark Simoon, Sir, you are the best.
17:12
Speaker 2: Well, I'd have to agree with that, you know, go ahead.
17:16
Speaker 10: All right?
17:16
Speaker 9: So I question do you think this this negotiations that
17:21
Speaker 9: are always falling apart because the Revolutionary Guard is living
17:26
Speaker 9: paycheck to paycheck and the Mulla's got all their money
17:29
Speaker 9: off shore, so they want to settle to keep their
17:31
Speaker 9: money and the republic Guards.
17:34
Speaker 2: That's no, it's it's more than that. No, it's just
17:38
Speaker 2: the This is the way Iran is. They lose every
17:41
Speaker 2: war and as they say, win every negotiation because they
17:43
Speaker 2: just never ever, ever ever ever give in. This is different, though,
17:46
Speaker 2: because we have not only taken away their military, but
17:49
Speaker 2: right now they are total their economy is totally shut off.
17:53
Speaker 2: The straits of horn Moose closed. They have no economy.
17:55
Speaker 2: There's absolutely no revenue coming in without the straits of
17:58
Speaker 2: Horne Moose. So they got enough money to go a
18:01
Speaker 2: few more weeks and then they're totally out of cash.
18:06
Speaker 2: They can't make the payroll. Also, people citizens of Iran
18:10
Speaker 2: starving to death. They're having a shortage of everything, bread, everything. Now,
18:14
Speaker 2: you're right, they do have some of those higher ups
18:17
Speaker 2: have a lot of money stashed away in foreign banks.
18:20
Speaker 2: We can we haven't done this yet. We can seize
18:24
Speaker 2: all our funds, freeze all those bank accounts. That's possible
18:30
Speaker 2: to do. We haven't done that yet. Maybe Donald Trump
18:34
Speaker 2: would be a little hesitant to do that because he's
18:37
Speaker 2: been debanked himself, so he might be a little touchy
18:39
Speaker 2: about that stuff. Let's go to John in Long Beach. John,
18:43
Speaker 2: how you doing.
18:44
Speaker 7: I'm doing very well.
18:47
Speaker 3: Yes.
18:47
Speaker 7: My friend Guido called me, laughing histerically, and he asked me,
18:53
Speaker 7: who's that a wool? I said, what are you talking about?
18:57
Speaker 7: He says, you know that governor you have? I said,
19:00
Speaker 7: you mean Hukal? He goes, yeah, he goes in Italian
19:03
Speaker 7: some fight.
19:04
Speaker 2: This is a riveting story. But where does it go?
19:08
Speaker 7: In Italian? The h is silent and it means ass.
19:11
Speaker 7: As soon as he said that, I remembered my mother
19:13
Speaker 7: saying all the time of who the mom?
19:15
Speaker 3: You know?
19:16
Speaker 7: Well, that's it.
19:17
Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about, but as long
19:18
Speaker 2: as you do, that's all that. Hey, you made your point.
19:22
Speaker 2: We don't know what it is, but you made your point.
19:24
Speaker 2: Let's go to Rich and Myrtle Beach. Rich, how you doing?
19:28
Speaker 10: Oh, if you want an Italian to call the show,
19:30
Speaker 10: you musto just stick with Vincent. I mean, I don't
19:31
Speaker 10: know what that guy was talking. Guy, If they're going
19:38
Speaker 10: after calling again, does that mean Pam Bondi just didn't
19:41
Speaker 10: do it the right way? Or we know Todd Blanche
19:44
Speaker 10: Will just got you to look at you like a
19:45
Speaker 10: fish and not even crack a smile. But was Pam
19:47
Speaker 10: Bondi just not doing it the right way and not
19:49
Speaker 10: as good as Todd Blanche or what was the big
19:51
Speaker 10: deal the difference here?
19:53
Speaker 2: Well, Pam Bondi was a great attorney general in Florida,
19:56
Speaker 2: But again, you could be a great minor league home
19:58
Speaker 2: run hitter, but then you get up into the majors
20:01
Speaker 2: and you can't hit major league pitching. So that Pam
20:04
Speaker 2: Bondy might have gone a little above where she should
20:06
Speaker 2: have been. From what I hear, I can't confirm this.
20:10
Speaker 2: I keep hearing this. More charges coming. This is just
20:13
Speaker 2: the opening.
20:13
Speaker 10: So he's as dirty as it come. He belongs in
20:15
Speaker 10: jail after what he did the poor General Flynn. That
20:17
Speaker 10: was terrible.
20:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, I forgot about that. What he did to Roger Stone,
20:21
Speaker 2: what he did he actually, yeah, it's a long story,
20:23
Speaker 2: but he really deceived General Flynn into yep. It's one
20:27
Speaker 2: thing they do when when this Yeah, he's bankrupted these guys.
20:31
Speaker 2: He bankrupted Roger Stone. This should be done to him.
20:36
Speaker 2: It's too long to explain. But when you can't get
20:38
Speaker 2: a guy like Flynn, when there's nothing to get him on,
20:41
Speaker 2: you set up a fake trap, like a perjury trap,
20:44
Speaker 2: a processed crime trap. And that's what they did to him.
20:46
Speaker 2: It was just awful. Let's go to Jerry in Granwich, Connecticut. Jerry,
20:50
Speaker 2: how you doing.
20:52
Speaker 11: I'm doing well, thank you. Mark prediction, nothing will happen
20:56
Speaker 11: to James Coney. The Democrats are above the low. They're
20:59
Speaker 11: going to throw it's out of the court. Again we
21:01
Speaker 11: like the other one.
21:03
Speaker 2: Uh well, we'll see. They got to get it into
21:05
Speaker 2: the right court. That's the problem you get before. These
21:08
Speaker 2: are crazy left wing judges, very very tough to get
21:12
Speaker 2: anything done. But we'll see. Hey, once again, if you
21:17
Speaker 2: think of it coming into Manhattan today, think twice about driving,
21:20
Speaker 2: take the train or something, because the King and the
21:24
Speaker 2: Queen will be all over in New York City. You
21:26
Speaker 2: start about noon at the World Trade Center nine to
21:28
Speaker 2: eleven Memorial. Then she goes to the New York Public
21:32
Speaker 2: Library Bryant Park. He goes to Harlem. Then in the
21:36
Speaker 2: late afternoon they're both going to Rockefeller Center. So it's
21:39
Speaker 2: not only the heavy security, but apparently lots and lots
21:45
Speaker 2: and lots and lots of people want to see the
21:47
Speaker 2: King and Queen. So they're expecting massive crowds to turn
21:51
Speaker 2: out everywhere. So that's going to clog up streets. It's
21:54
Speaker 2: going to be a traffic mess with the security and
21:56
Speaker 2: the huge crowds. So you people with your no king signs,
22:00
Speaker 2: apparently the public doesn't agree. If an actual king shows up,
22:04
Speaker 2: millions will come out trying to get a look at him.
22:06
Speaker 2: Oh you see it from the TV coverage. Apparently people
22:09
Speaker 2: love Kings, so you can put away your no King sign.
22:13
Speaker 2: It didn't work. Hey, when we come back, Roger Friedman,
22:17
Speaker 2: a great entertainment reporter, will be with us. You know
22:19
Speaker 2: that Michael Jackson biopic Boy that opened incredible numbers, but
22:23
Speaker 2: apparently something's gone wrong. We'll find out what that is
22:26
Speaker 2: coming up next on seven to ten wor let's get
22:30
Speaker 2: back to the Markximmone show on woor.
22:35
Speaker 3: Hey.
22:36
Speaker 2: Roger Friedman is the great entertainment reporter. You should read
22:39
Speaker 2: his website. There's excellent stories, good stuff, and it's news
22:42
Speaker 2: stories every day. Just go to showbiz for one one
22:45
Speaker 2: dot com, Showbiz for one one dot com. Roger Friedman,
22:50
Speaker 2: how you doing?
22:52
Speaker 7: You know?
22:53
Speaker 6: I'm looking at this New York Times list of New
22:57
Speaker 6: York Times magazine list of the thirty greatest living American songwriter.
23:01
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought that up. That is the dumbest list.
23:04
Speaker 2: It is totally inaccurate. It's unbelievably stupid.
23:09
Speaker 6: It's unbelievably stupid. For one thing, Billy Joel's not on it.
23:15
Speaker 6: I guess they consider Joni Mitchell and Neil Young to
23:18
Speaker 6: be Canadians and.
23:19
Speaker 3: Not Americans, even though they are Americans. Neil Young, Neil
23:24
Speaker 3: Young is an actual American.
23:26
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but he's got like two songs anybody likes.
23:30
Speaker 3: Oh well, he's got plenty.
23:31
Speaker 6: But Joni Mitchell, Billy Joel, Billy Joel should be number
23:35
Speaker 6: one on the list. Okay, Instead, you've got Young Thug.
23:40
Speaker 6: You know, I'm sure that people are humming Young Thug
23:43
Speaker 6: songs even as we're speaking.
23:48
Speaker 3: You know.
23:49
Speaker 2: Also, Jimmy Webb, he lives in the Long Island and Bayville.
23:53
Speaker 2: He should be on that list.
23:54
Speaker 3: Jimmy is that where he lives? Ye, yes, well Jimmy
23:58
Speaker 3: Webb away, come.
24:01
Speaker 2: On, MacArthur Park's ridiculous by the time I get to
24:03
Speaker 2: Phoenix Galveston, which.
24:09
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, it's crazy and bad. Bunny is one of
24:15
Speaker 6: the top thirty. Outcast Romeo Santos. Who are these people?
24:23
Speaker 6: There's someone here, there's one name I never actually even oh,
24:26
Speaker 6: Fiona Apple. I don't get that at all. And there
24:31
Speaker 6: are so many people who are missing from this list.
24:33
Speaker 6: There's no James Taylor. Uh, there's the Eagles aren't here.
24:39
Speaker 6: And also they say it's the best songwriters. What about Broadway?
24:43
Speaker 6: What about Lynton, Manueld, Miranda. I mean, there are so
24:46
Speaker 6: many great people, but instead there's the dream.
24:49
Speaker 3: You know, the dream, right yeah, you know having the
24:52
Speaker 3: dream right now.
24:53
Speaker 2: Well, i'll tell you here's the problem. In the New
24:54
Speaker 2: York Times, it's become so bad. You know, they have
24:57
Speaker 2: this thing called Wirecutter where they review products. Oh yeah,
25:01
Speaker 2: let's see, here's the best air conditioning. They're always wrong
25:03
Speaker 2: about everything because in the old days of the New
25:05
Speaker 2: York Times, it was a guy that's been doing it
25:07
Speaker 2: for thirty years high top. You know, right now, it's
25:10
Speaker 2: like a bunch of twenty three year olds. To give
25:12
Speaker 2: them five hundred dollars a week. They don't know what
25:14
Speaker 2: they're doing. It's the same thing with these songwriters. They
25:16
Speaker 2: hire these inexperienced kids to come up with these things.
25:20
Speaker 6: Also, Mariah Carey, listen, I know she has a great voice,
25:24
Speaker 6: but she is not a songwriter.
25:25
Speaker 3: She's on the list. But she's on the list.
25:29
Speaker 6: But you know the guy who wrote the songs with her,
25:32
Speaker 6: Walter Alfanasiev, he could actually be on the list, but
25:35
Speaker 6: he's not here. He must be fuming he wrote all
25:38
Speaker 6: those songs. I don't know who Stephan Merritt is at all.
25:43
Speaker 6: Out Cast had one hit.
25:45
Speaker 3: Hey you Kendrick Lamar. You know, I know he's popular,
25:51
Speaker 3: but this is kind of ridiculous. The whole thing is ridiculous.
25:54
Speaker 6: Half the list should go, and if it's thirty, there
25:58
Speaker 6: are fifteen people missing. And but I see online people
26:02
Speaker 6: are really angry and they're really going They're really really angry,
26:06
Speaker 6: and and they should be.
26:08
Speaker 3: And I don't know who may I don't know who.
26:10
Speaker 6: Makes these lists, but and maybe they make them just
26:13
Speaker 6: to be just to outrage everyone so that we talk
26:15
Speaker 6: about it.
26:18
Speaker 3: There is one person on the list I'm very happy about.
26:21
Speaker 6: I just want to say, is Valerie Simpson from Ashrad
26:24
Speaker 6: and Simpson, who's a New Yorker who we love and
26:28
Speaker 6: wrote so many motown hits. So I'm thrilled that she
26:30
Speaker 6: made the list. And Diane Warren deserves it. But some
26:36
Speaker 6: of these other people, this is just kind of ridiculous.
26:39
Speaker 2: Bruce Springsteen, they have Smokey Robinson, so obviously it's not
26:42
Speaker 2: a generational thing. They got the old people there.
26:45
Speaker 6: How could they not give you Under Simon, I don't know,
26:49
Speaker 6: Billy Joel. This is so crazy. It's so crazy, and
26:54
Speaker 6: so maybe the idea is just to annoy everybody and
26:57
Speaker 6: get us talking about the New York Times magazine. But
27:00
Speaker 6: you know, on Sunday when this comes out, we get
27:02
Speaker 6: our New York Times magazine delivered. I'm going to use
27:06
Speaker 6: it to line some kind of cage. I don't know,
27:09
Speaker 6: third cage, a dog cage, something.
27:11
Speaker 2: It's just terrible. Hey, let me ask you. You're the
27:14
Speaker 2: Michael Jackson expert. The Michael Jackson movie had an incredible
27:18
Speaker 2: box office opening weekend, and then what happened.
27:21
Speaker 6: It did well, So we'll see what happens in a
27:24
Speaker 6: little while. We'll have the numbers from last night, but
27:27
Speaker 6: the two nights ago it had a big fall off,
27:32
Speaker 6: seventy percent falloff. And well, I think that the big
27:38
Speaker 6: rush to see it was over the weekend.
27:40
Speaker 3: It actually started.
27:41
Speaker 6: You know, they had previews last Wednesday, so it was Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
27:47
Speaker 6: They made ninety seven million dollars in the United States
27:51
Speaker 6: and another one hundred and twenty million around the world,
27:55
Speaker 6: which was amazing. So they made two hundred million dollars
27:59
Speaker 6: and everybody was talking about what a surprise this was.
28:02
Speaker 3: But I also think that.
28:03
Speaker 6: Maybe the big rush of Michael Jackson fans saw it,
28:07
Speaker 6: they loved it, they had a good time, and now
28:10
Speaker 6: you're going to see kind of a fall off.
28:11
Speaker 3: I think it's not a good movie.
28:14
Speaker 6: No, it's not a factually it's not a factually correct movie.
28:19
Speaker 3: I don't care about what they don't it's and it's
28:21
Speaker 3: not about leaving out.
28:23
Speaker 6: The child molestation scandals and all that stuff, because that
28:27
Speaker 6: would have come later. This movie ends in nineteen eighty eight,
28:31
Speaker 6: but just the stuff that they covered in the seventies
28:35
Speaker 6: and eighties, they skipped through the seventies.
28:38
Speaker 3: So you sort of have the Jackson five.
28:42
Speaker 6: Being a success and then suddenly it's Michael having his
28:45
Speaker 6: Off the Wall album. But in between nothing happens, like
28:50
Speaker 6: Michael doesn't do the Wiz. There's all kinds of stuff missing.
28:55
Speaker 6: It's not a well made movie.
28:58
Speaker 2: So you think word of mouth is slowing down the
29:00
Speaker 2: box office.
29:02
Speaker 6: It could be that word of mouth is slowing down
29:04
Speaker 6: the box office. And also the reviews are terrible. You know,
29:07
Speaker 6: if you look on I mean, it doesn't seem to
29:09
Speaker 6: have mattered at the beginning, but on Rotten Tomatoes, I
29:12
Speaker 6: think they have like a thirty seven percent or something,
29:15
Speaker 6: and that's the high it was as low as twenty
29:17
Speaker 6: seven percent. So critics reviews are terrible. So it could
29:21
Speaker 6: be that the next level of people coming through are
29:25
Speaker 6: the people who would read the reviews and say, you
29:27
Speaker 6: know what, I don't think it's worth twenty five dollars.
29:30
Speaker 10: Hey.
29:30
Speaker 6: By the way, speaking of twenty five dollars, I was,
29:34
Speaker 6: I went to look at a ticket for the devil
29:36
Speaker 6: Ware's product for this weekend.
29:39
Speaker 3: The tickets are twenty five dollars.
29:40
Speaker 2: He wait, hold a press. You were going to pay
29:42
Speaker 2: for something? Wait a minute, I.
29:45
Speaker 6: Was, yeah, because well, Disney has Disney does it. The
29:48
Speaker 6: movie's not that great, and Disney does not do not
29:51
Speaker 6: want me. I was not invited to any screenings. What
29:53
Speaker 6: I said, all right, I'll pay for it to go
29:55
Speaker 6: to a preview. Yes, I got this, I said, I'll pay.
29:58
Speaker 6: I don't mind this is five dollars.
30:03
Speaker 3: Hey, let me tell you that.
30:04
Speaker 2: You know that I never saw The Devilwares prodest so
30:07
Speaker 2: because of this, I went back and watched it this week.
30:10
Speaker 2: I don't understand the movie at all, the way she behaves.
30:13
Speaker 2: You and I. In the media business, we've worked for
30:15
Speaker 2: hundreds of people like that. What's so unusual about it?
30:20
Speaker 2: I know a million people.
30:21
Speaker 6: I know, rude, insulin obnoxious. Yes, that's the that's the norm.
30:27
Speaker 2: I've worked for people much worse than her. You probably too.
30:32
Speaker 2: That's nothing else. Oh, yes, we can talk.
30:37
Speaker 11: You know.
30:38
Speaker 9: Uh.
30:39
Speaker 6: The second movie, apparently the new one has been really
30:44
Speaker 6: watered down. The Marrische character has become very friendly. Yes,
30:49
Speaker 6: because you know, the first movie, the story it was,
30:52
Speaker 6: the joke was about Vogue. But the second movie, Vogue
30:56
Speaker 6: is in on it. They're like a sponsor of it.
30:59
Speaker 6: And Anna Winter was filmed scenes to be in it.
31:01
Speaker 6: I don't know if she made them in Paralys she
31:04
Speaker 6: got cut, but Anna Winter put Meryl Streep and herself
31:09
Speaker 6: on the cover of Vogue this month because she's so
31:12
Speaker 6: into it. She's into it, so they've made the movie
31:15
Speaker 6: very Anna Winter. He friendly, So instead of having that
31:19
Speaker 6: obnoxious character, now suddenly she's like a pussy cat. And
31:23
Speaker 6: I think that's going to ruin the whole idea of
31:26
Speaker 6: the devil. There's no devil wearing Pradac.
31:29
Speaker 2: You know, hey, Roger Fream, we only got about thirty
31:32
Speaker 2: seconds left the King, Charles, you believe the mania over
31:36
Speaker 2: the King a month ago was no kings. Now everybody's
31:40
Speaker 2: fawning all over the king. What do you think of
31:42
Speaker 2: King Charles?
31:43
Speaker 6: First of all, I call him Prince Charles. I can't
31:45
Speaker 6: call him King Charles. We know him as Prince Charles.
31:49
Speaker 6: And I don't know. He made a good speech yesterday.
31:53
Speaker 6: He thought he was getting away with something. He you know,
31:56
Speaker 6: made a nice speech about checks and balances and he was.
32:00
Speaker 3: You know, the King is promoted.
32:03
Speaker 6: The royal family promotes what the parliament want, what the
32:07
Speaker 6: Prime Minister wants, so he's giving their agenda.
32:11
Speaker 3: He doesn't have his own agenda, so he's doing that.
32:16
Speaker 6: He's really here, you know, to see some shows and
32:19
Speaker 6: go to some restaurants. So God bless him. Right, Well,
32:24
Speaker 6: hopefully this is a sick man. He has cancer. You know,
32:28
Speaker 6: let him go, Let him go do a few things
32:30
Speaker 6: while he's here, you know, come.
32:32
Speaker 3: On, yeah, well, I listen. They're very nice.
32:35
Speaker 2: They're not the most exciting couple in the world.
32:37
Speaker 6: I mean, she's not. And they keep calling her queen.
32:40
Speaker 6: She's the Queen consort. She's not the Queen's the second
32:44
Speaker 6: she's the second wife. You know, Diana would have been
32:48
Speaker 6: the queen. This woman is just like you know, Johnny
32:52
Speaker 6: come lately.
32:53
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, she's like the Nancy Reagan of this
32:55
Speaker 2: deal second wife.
32:57
Speaker 6: No, no, Nancy Reagan was fantastic. We loved her. She
33:01
Speaker 6: was okay, all right, everyone loved Nancy Reagan.
