Hour 1: Huge money is up for grabs! · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Bro, we're playing her today. We're down one player. Natalie
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Ivaca went through knee surgery yesterday. We've been talking about
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: it over the last couple of weeks that this was
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: going to happen. She went through it yesterday, and we
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: sent out a message earlier today to see if she'd
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: be up and she could be on the show early.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: But you know, she just went through surgery, and so
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: thank God that she is resting. We'll try to get
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: her on somewhere through the show, but filling in today
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: like just yesterday. The verbose Chris Switzer, I thought you
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: might jump in. That's often how people describe me verbos. Yeah, yeah,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to make an extra effort to
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: speak today. Curtis.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I remember yesterday he was making major progress.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: I've given him the nickname the Quiet Storm in honor
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: of two of the greatest radio personalities of all time,
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Frankie Crocker and Vaughan Hopper. That was the name of
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: this show at night WBLS when it was the number
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: one R and B station in the nation. As you know,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: he's on loan from the March Simone Show. I asked
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: you ask Mark. He knows all about radio. He'll tell
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: you about these two guys. Yeah, well you all pumped
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: up yesterday now with your new name, the Quiet Storm.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: See we're telling you you're quiet. And what does he
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: do as a typical gen z?
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: The reverse? I got a zag? Yeah, the reverse? You
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: notice that.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Well it's not Let's just count the words. He said
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: about a dozen words right now. You just said about
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: seven hundred. So let's let's put you to the test here.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Natalie obviously recovering from the knee surgery.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: But do you play power Ball? Because I don't. Larry
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: obviously does, Natalie does, and probably most of the people
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: who work at iHeart and some capacity do. It just
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: seems everybody went, well, the big prize is a billion dollars, right, yeah.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I'm driving in a Jersey turnpike. I get I'm coming
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: up close to the Lincoln and there it is on
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: the sign. I check every day to see where the
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Powerball and the other one is and how much they
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: are up for. And they said just one billion, one
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: b it said. And I checked it out online and
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: it is one billion dollars now if you take the
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: cash option and not take the payments out over thirty
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: years you end up with four hundred and thirty three million.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, who can live on that? Seriously? So that's
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: four and thirty three million, and the chances of winning
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: if you were to buy one ticket, like that's the
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: way Natalie does it. She just buys one ticket for
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: two dollars is one in two hundred and ninety two million,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: two hundred and one thousand, three hundred and thirty eight.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: And if you were to buy two tickets, you can
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: cut that in half. It would only be one hundred
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: and fifty million, So you get two tickets. But I
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: play all the time, all right.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Since you're a player, and most of our listeners probably are.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: This phenomenon in power Ball, it seemed to me first
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: just came. Each state had its own lotto, and they
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: always told you, oh, it's gonna raise money for education,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: public education. That's how they sold it lotto. I always
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: wondered about that, how much of it actually goes to
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: public education and not the bureaucracy that it's paid to
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: support this But Powerball, if I understand it correctly, it's
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: like one of these first lottos to spread their tentacles
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: all over America to get state after the state enrolled.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: That's the reason that the jackpot could keep soaring. So
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: it's not just New Jersey, it's not just New York.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: It's probably dozens of states now that have signed on.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: So you got all of America like Powerball, right, and
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: that's how they can have the huge jackpots. But and
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: it's Mega millions too, and now Mega Millions. It's really
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: funny because Mega Millions was falling behind Powerball, that's the
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: competition those two and Mega Millions was falling behind, and
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: they thought to themselves, Oh, it's because our jackpots aren't
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: big enough. So now to get a Mega Millions ticket,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: it costs five dollars for each one instead of two dollars.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: And now they get that, they usually get the bigger jackpots.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: So this is pretty exciting. There's a billion dollars. When
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I walk into a convenience store, grocery store, candy store,
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it, bodega's, and I see
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: that the line for people just buying the basics milk
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and bread is almost like one or two people. And
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: then the special machine that they get hooked up from
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: the state, it's like twelve, fifteen, twenty people.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: That happened already because it's funny. I went yesterday and
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: I was expecting to see that. I went too, wah
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: wah wah, and I was expecting to see that, and
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I got right on the machine. There wasn't a big line,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: but I remember in the past they'd be huge lines
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: to wait to get the power ball. I think people
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: are getting used to these now, it's like. And also
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: you can buy them online, which you couldn't do before,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: so it's going to be fascinating. I mean, how high
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: will this go? Which are scratch offs here? Because what
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I see is people standing around with like a dime
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: in their hand, just scratching off, scratching off scratch. They
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: seem to have a formula in mind. They seem to
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: have a relationship with the person they're buying it from,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: whether it's a regular newsstand, candy store, bodega, grocery store,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: you know, where they wish one another luck, you know,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: and always the store points out how many winners they've
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: had in the past. It always like to say that, yeah,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: you want to buy here because look at all the
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: winners we've had. Like there's this guy in North Carolina
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: who was playing their local lottery there again it was
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: supposedly set up to help education.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: He won the second time. It's in the New York Post.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: The second time in two years he won one hundred
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars on the scratch off. He walks home with
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: seventy two thousand after taxes. And yet it was two
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: years ago he won the two million dollar prize in
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: North Carolina and walked away with eight hundred and fifty
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: eight thousand. Now that's a big chunk out of that.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: That's more than fifty percent they took in taxis How
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: do you end up becoming a multiple winner? I always wondered,
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: if they're not manipulating this to get more in money
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: in the pop more and more money in the pot.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Well I don't. I think that they have enough money.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: They don't have to manipulate it to get the more money.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I think that they're will be look at they have
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: the golden goose right now. Why are they going to
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: screw with it? They're not gonna screw with this. It's amazing.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at the I'm looking at the top ten
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: powerball jackpots and Mega millions jackpots. This billion dollars doesn't
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: make the top ten, doesn't make the top ten. No, no,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: we're the biggest was over two billion. That was back
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. And of course somebody in California
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: one of the top ten. California's won three. Nobody from
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: this area has ever won one.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Which means we're due. Yeah, you keep thinking that.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: You keep thinking that, Larry as you line up to
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: get now not only your Power Bowl ticket, but also
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: what your Mega million ticket?
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: No, I don't get Mega million. It's five bucks now,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: didn't And.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: There's the local lotto, all the different games they have,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: the state lotto.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Then for a while there they.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Had something called Kino or something like that, where you
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: could walk into a gin mill and like every half
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: hour there was a new drawing, just like being addicted
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: to crack.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: It's funny though, because people say to me, why are
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: you playing power Ball? You're just throwing away your money.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: I got like it's two bucks. It's two bucks for
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: a chance at a billion dollars. I'll take that. I'll
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: put two dollars in for a billion dollars. Of course
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: I spend more than that. But Natalie's really good about it.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: She only spends two dollars. That's one ticket. She's disciplined
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: one ticket, I'm not said, and we have not encouraged
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Chrish to get on board, have or speak. And as
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: a matter of fact, here he goes wait a second
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: way to state he's going to talk. I played, I
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: played on on Saturday, I played, and I just I'll
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: play tonight.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: Are yeah, how much are you gonna spend? I'll buy
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: a couple of tickets, not a lot like two or three.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Nobody ever admits to how many power bulls? How did
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: you buy one?
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: Two? It's like ten? No, I ten, but.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Come away with forty hours.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: I got a ticket, you know, And I'm trying to
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: figure this out with so many tickets sold. It's not
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: like you have a formula, like you know you're going
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: to the horse track and you know you have the
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: racing form and you figure out stats and past races.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: But there are guys who have been online who tell
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: me they have a formula, what time to arrive, what
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: to ask for when to ask for it. If there's
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: a certain guy behind the counter that they don't know,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: not to buy the ticket. Ten They got this whole
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: thing worked out. And I'm saying, you spend most of
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: your day thinking about this you see you damn right.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: You know, maybe there is a way. I don't think
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: there's any possible way they have that's set up, but
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: maybe some of the people well are listening right now
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: that play power Ball or play Mega Millions do have
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a formula. So go to the iHeartRadio app, leave us
• 9:06

• 9:20
  Speaker 1: forget the best talkback of the week takes on the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Sea Crane Radio for the listener who demands better sea
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Crane radios with legendary reception. And my feeling is, and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: you said this too, I got to feel in a
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: lot of people that listen play the Power Back.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Oh there's no doubt. They may not want to admit it,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: but I know they do.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: The other thing that I've noticed from our broadcast, because
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: we're the only show that talks about AI, artificial intelligence,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: We're going to give you an update on that at
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: the end of this shower. But I had a few
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: people come up to me yesterday as I was jumping
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: from the streets to the subway, saying, fluck the flock,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: fluck o the flock. We're the only ones talking about
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: these flock cameras. Nobody else, you know, they all talk
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: about the same thing. Gives me a headache, I'm sorry.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Talk radio, for the most part, is an echo chamber.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: The same subjects over and over. To me, the two
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: most important issues that affect people, no matter what your ideology,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: no matter what where you live, rural areas, suburban areas,
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: urban areas, AI, It's going to impact everybody in a
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: positive and negative or maybe not at all. And of course,
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: these flock cameras, as you pointed out Larry the other day,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: they were everywhere. Imagine I have people coming up to
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: you to fluck the flock. And at first I'm wondering,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: you know, because my hearing is not that good. Are
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: they cursing me out like some people do?
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: F usely, well, you know you should have dropped out.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: But no, they've developed this line, fluck the flock. And
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: they said it was listening to you and Larry, you
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: were describing it it's just the conversation I was having
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: with my wife or my bran. It's like, these are
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: the issues that really impact people. Some of these other
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: talk shows. The PHDT text, well, we'll be talking about that,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: but that really doesn't impact that many people in New
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: York City would impact thirteen thousand when implemented.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: It's funny you said that, because I heard from a
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: couple of people that send emails that they didn't know
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: at all that this was happening, and they didn't know
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: it was so pervasive. It's in every single states and
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: there's thousands of them in New Jersey and New York.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: And in case you weren't listening, just to set you
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: up on what they are, they are surveillance cameras run
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: by a private company to take your license plates, put
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: them through AI and they get all this information and
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: they keep a record of where you've been. And now
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: it's we can talk more about it. Maybe we'll talk
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: to you this morning. By the way, it is, but
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: it's also saved. It's solved a million cases.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: This is going to disappoint you. Warwell was a socialist
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: animal farm.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: You want to go back to. I've got a whole
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: lot of research out here. I'm ready for you now,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: I just.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: Telling you you pointed out I'm signed right, that's for sure.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: All right, let's get your talk facts one week come back. Also,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: teachers make a difference each and every day, and now's
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: your chance to say thanks. Iheartradios Thank a teacher powered
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: by donor's choice. Nominate an outstanding public school teacher who
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: goes above and beyond for students. They could be one
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: of our five thousand dollars winners for classroom supplies and resources.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Teachers give you so much. Now it's your turn to
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: give back. Nominate a teacher now at iHeartRadio dot com
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: slash teachers. Well, if you're up in Yorktown Heights and
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: you have to happen to be traveling on Route one
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: eighteen and you see a growing memorial of flowers and
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: pictures and signs, that's for a twelve year old dog
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: named Luke Shepherd pard Husky. He was gunned down on
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: August fifth. He is owned by a homeless guy who
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: is equally loved in town. Just goes by the name Matt.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Everybody there talks about Matt. Everybody in Yorktown Heights knows
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Matt so he had the dog in a leash, and
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: the dog broke broke free, and the dog approached another
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: dog who was also leashed, and they got into a fight,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: and a former NYPD officer then pulled out his gun
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: and shot the dog dead, shot Luke dead. And since
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: then there's been calls for justice. There have been civil
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: rights advocates and dog advocates and animal advocates that have
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: taken to the streets and had a huge protest last
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: night as he was charged and showed up at short
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: finally to be charged. And the former police officer is
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: now facing charges. His name is James molloy, retired NYPD cop.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: He's now facing charges of reckless endangerment in the first
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: degree and aggravated cruelty to animals. And he has to
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: go back and the protesters say, we're going to be
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: back here again. We're not going to let this go.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Too many animals are abused, too many animals are killed,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: and nobody does anything.
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: It's really ugly living in the world where animal abusers
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: just aren't held accountable, and we're tired of it now.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: The first time I heard about the story, I thought
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: to myself, I started looking in all of the reports,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: and there's the TVs covered it. And I looked around
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: and I didn't see Curtis. I thought this was a
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Curtius lewd thing. I thought you and Nancy would be
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: up there.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: But we were celebrating the victory where the cat kill
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: a usually after a year of us going to court
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: with other animal rights activists, was actually sent away for
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: two years, first time ever in New York State. So
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: we missed it, but we're gonna catch up. By by
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: the way, did the New York City PBA, did they
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: show up to support there? Remember, because this is a
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: crowd of which I just want to remind the PBA.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: If you're gonna support your member, this is gonna be
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: a relentless crowd. Animal welfare people are relentless still be
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: at every court hearing. I'm gonna make it a point
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: we go up there. We checked the memorial, but I
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: don't understand why you had to shoot the dog.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: He didn't.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: That's the whole point. He didn't. It was reckless endangerment.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: And you when you shoot a gun, you know there's
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: a good chance that the bullet's gonna ricochet, it's gona
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: hit somebody else, or if the dog's running down the street.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what happened, how close the dog was,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: but my god, you're putting other people in jeopardy as well.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: It is reckless endangerment and it's it's animal abuse. So look,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: you're right the way you hear these people and the
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: crowd that gathered, they're not letting this go. So you'll
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: have plenty of times to get up there. They're gonna
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: be glad to see you. Let's get some talkbacks.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: How people will only play lotto if it's close to
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: a billion dollars. So one hundred million wasn't enough. So
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: regular lotto for a buck only twelve million to one
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: right and you could win five million dollars six million dollars.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: That's not enough.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I can never understand people. I've thought about this a
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: lot myself. I think it's because of the advertising. Once
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: it hits a certain level, we're talking about it. All
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: the TV stations will be talking about it. They're going
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: to be I guarantee you every TV station tonight will
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: be either live from a budego or they're gonna be
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: live from a seven to eleven, or they're gonna be
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: live from some place where they're selling lotto tickets. And
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: as a former TV reporter, I hated that gig because
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: what else? What new were you going to do? Oh
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: what are you gonna do with the money? What are
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: you gonna do if you win?
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: And what did they always tell you if if he
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: happen to be fortunate enough to win, Well.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: That's interesting, you asked, because they're all going to give
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: it to charity. And I always thought they're lying. And
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: so does this talkback.
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: For those guy bones who play the lotto and they
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: lie through their teeth when they say, Oh, if I win,
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna buy my mother a house, I'm gonna buy
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: my friends this, I'm gonna buy my sister that. I
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: think they're all liars. They're just trying to get grace
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: from God to so God helps them win. If I play,
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: I'm keeping all the.
• 17:40

• 17:57
  Speaker 2: a gen zer Christ.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: Do you want to respond now, I'm gonna lie through
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: my teeth. I'm not going to keep it all. I'll
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: give it. I'll give some of it away to us,

  Speaker 1: the Pierre de ter a tax and he says it
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: must be stopped. Battle lines have been drawn. We'll talk
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: about it next.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Well, we have the secondary home taxes I call it,
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: or Larry Howe did they describe it in French? Could
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: you give me the pierre deterere, Pierre deterere, what are ridiculous?
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Pierre de tear?
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Isn't it like that thing that Zoron Mondami wanted to
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: put in instead of the turlets in the bathroom there
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Graycion Mansion when him and his wife moved in there.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: That's what they wanted in there.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, what is that thing that the French use
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: instead of having just a toilet.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: It's called I know what it is. I forget what day?
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: See when I when you say Pierre de tay to me,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking of a bodday, but it's not.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know why they use this term, but they do.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: It's a secondary home tax.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: So the way it's laid out, and again this is
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: an idea originally that the person who came up with
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: it was Andrew Eviliesquimo.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: When he was governor.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: He had a budgetary deficit with the MTA. You needed
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: to raise some extra money, so he came up with
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: this idea, Hey, if you have a secondary home in
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: New York City, uh, in New York State, We're going
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: to tax you for that. He eventually dropped that because
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: it wasn't being accepted, so he went on to other things.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: So that was set into basically a template, is exactly
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: what Johan Mandami resuscitated when he became mayor and he
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: did the Chicken Dance with Kathy Hkl. The governor who
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: has to approve of this because and people don't seem
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: to understand, why is it that our Albany legislature and
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: the governor has to approve of home rule decisions in
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: the biggest city in the United States.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: We have to go up to Albany, a town of
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: like your luck.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: If there's one hundred thousand people there, and that's only
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: when it's in session.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: When it's not in session, everybody leaves.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: But Albany makes most of these determinations, and we sacrifice that.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: When Albany bailed out the City of New York from
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: going bankrupt in like nineteen seventy seven, when that famous
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: headline Cheryl Ford, the president at that time, said, drop
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: dead went up bailing you out because it'll be a
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: domino effective. We bail out in New York City, we
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: have to bail out other places, thankfully, he said that.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: But when the governor carry put together our financial Control Board,
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: part of that was okay, from now on, in order
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: to make sure you're gonna abide by the fiscal restraint
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: that's needed, most of your measures to raise money you're
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: gonna have to pass.
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: You will orbanate now property tax. You can do on
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: your own.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: That's why Zoran said, is the mayor or, we're gonna
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: raise everybody's property tax. And naturally he wouldn't never have
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: gotten that through the city council. It is not because
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: you're dealing with sixty two different neighborhoods.
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: So the chicken game.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: Was hokeel goes Okay, we'll go for this secondary home tax,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: which should have only affected thirteen thousand locations. This is
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: a second home.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Some people use it to go back and forth to Florida,
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: or maybe they'll have guests or friends stay, or they'll
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: sublease it. You know, they won't say anything, but they'll
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: sublease it. Some are an investment exactly because they'll flip it.
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: A lot of foreigners do that because if ever their
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: country goes in solvent or there's a revolution and they
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: can't trust the banks.
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: They got real estate in New York City.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: So if it's worth more than a million dollars as
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: a co op, if it's worth more than a million
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: dollars as a condo, if it's worth more than five
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: million dollars as a one to two or three family home,
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: you got to pay an additional six and a half percent.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: We'll call it property tax, which, when all is said
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: and done, if collected from thirteen thousand people, would equal
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: about five hundred million dollars. So the problem came about
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: when they rolled it out. First, seventeen thousand letters went out,
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: so they're like, four thousand people got letters who should
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: never have gotten letters because they don't have a second property.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: Some of them prominent people, some of them people you
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: don't know, and all of them complained. And that's quite
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: a gaff. I mean, you talked about four thousand and
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: it was like it should have only been thirteen thousand
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: letters and went out.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: I get it, but it's everything this guy's.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Done, right.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: So they promise, okay, you have an opportunity until late September.
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: They pushed it back.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: It was originally laid out August, but late September, you know,
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: you can appeal and we'll undo it.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: Okay, it's going to move forward.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: The state has the right to do it, and the
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: city has given the permission to do it. Because state
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: controls this. There's no home rule. Well, who decides to
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: jump in on this yesterday? Do you think it was
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: a slow newsday for the President of the United States?
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: Who was at the Patriot.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Games and dealing with Iran and Israel and the economy
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: and all the primaries that are taking place.
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: Many of them led with the Patriot themes in all
• 25:45
  Speaker 8: that long life like that, right does Patriot Games. But no,
• 25:48
  Speaker 8: he had a weigh in and he has, obviously we know,
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: a secondary property. His primary property is Mari Largo. His
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: secondary property is the Trump Tower. And he said this
• 25:59
  Speaker 8: is wrong, this should not be done. It's gonna drive
• 26:02
  Speaker 8: people out of New York City. And this is done
• 26:05
  Speaker 8: by Jihadis.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying to myself, Okay, maybe you're trying out
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: the campaign rhetoric. I get a Jihadis, as Lamis, communist Marxists,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: I get it.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: But he didn't mention Zorhanmandami. So jihanis that.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: Look, everybody knew who he met when he said the
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: radical left jihadist. I think everybody knew who He.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: Never attacked him personally. If you notice this, right, I
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: mean think about this, the leader of the pack. If
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: you want to believe he's a Jihattis and Islamis is Zorhamandami. Right,
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: He's led this surge of the DSSA all over the country.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: It all started with this unbelievable victory of his in
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: New York City. But the President has this love hate
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: relationship with him. Welcome into the White House twice and
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: then they couldn't be friendlier. They're doing business together, they
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: try to get affordable housing, but he won't attack him personally. Now,
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: he had no problem going after Al Sayid and arrested, right,
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well they're running for all. This guy's not running
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: for office. I mean, I think everybody knew who he
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: was going after. And he certainly said a couple of
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: times this doesn't work in America and call him a
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: jie hottest. So you would think what he's saying is
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: go back to where you came from. That's what it
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: sounds like. You know, if you were to take a
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: vote on this. Of people that I run into in
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: the streets, they're like, I can't even afford one property.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: What am I going to worry about people who go
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: to afford two properties.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: But the other thing that the President did in this
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: particular situation is just empower somebody like Joorhan Montomi because
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: he didn't respond, you know, he didn't respond. It's just
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: part of that back and forth, and I would have
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: said to the president, he's probably not aware of this. Hey,
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: mister president, the guy you supported from May, Andrew Como.
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: He created this. He created this again.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: It's I think what the President has to do is
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: really get focused now on the three big issues.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: That are going to affect Republicans. I get it.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: It's a good strategy to declare that the Democrats is
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: hiatis islam as communist march this.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: We'll see if that works.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: But most people were still saying affordability, costs of living
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: and this endless one around.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, except this is a big issue that the socialism
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: is a big issue, and it's one the Republicans can control.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: And that's why you hear it from them all the time.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Now if you listen to every single candidate out there,
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: they're talking about the threat of socialism. This is a
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: huge winner for the Republican Party so far. And they
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: wanted Hung to win. There's no question they wanted Hung
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: to win.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: Well, they actually were going to discuss it later on.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: They spent money to get her, no question.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no questions. So listen, this is going along exactly
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: you they both win. To your point, they both win
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: in this mom Donnie wins in this because Donald Trump's
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: attacking him, and Hessa anti Donald Trump, and all the
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: people that support him are anti Donald Trump. Donald Trump
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: wins in this because he gets to point out Democratic
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: socialists are ruining the country. Look what they're doing in
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: New York. All they want is money, money, money, money
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: to pay for their disasters. So it's win win. You
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: didn't expect anything else to happen here, did you. I
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: didn't expect the president away on this. You can't even
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: pronounce it. I'd ask the president to pronounce what is
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: that again? Pronounce that for me? He can pronounce a
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: better new if the midterms are coming up. The midterms
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: are coming up, of course he's going to get in here.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: But anyway, ladies and gentlemen, it doesn't matter who you are,
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: you're probably getting these spam calls and spam texts, and
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: you would love to have a little bit of silence,
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: wouldn't you, Because it all seems.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: To have your personal information.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: You notice, It's like, how did you think I have
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: my phone them, my home address, my email, my family
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: member locations, my political affiliations, even where I do my banking, well,
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: it's through databanks.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: And that's why.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Unfortunately it's legal to collect all that information, but you're
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: right in the eye of the storm because they'll sell
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: it to whoever it is has the money, including criminals
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: who are out to bamboozle you. Now there is a
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: way to stop all this and do it the way
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: I've done it in Cognate. Get a pad and penna
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: right and now down I Ncogni in Cogny will set
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: up a wall and they'll want all of these data banks.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: You better not use this person's information any longer. But
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: they're not suckers. They know that they're going to come
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: back and try to do it again. So they're going
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: to do a whack a mole and come back and
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: warn them legally get our client's information off your site. Now,
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: they'll send those legal removal requests and then they stay
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: on top of it. So if you can't target, if
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: you can't the spammer's coming after you, If you can't
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: stand the spammers texting you morning, noon, and night, there's
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: an opportunity to get sixty percent off right now on
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: incogniti dot com slash curtis. That's I n ceog Ni
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: dot com slash curtis and share that with your family
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: and French.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: So far, across the country, most people have been pro AI.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Most Republicans especially have been pro AI. But not a
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: Republican in California, who right now is the top Republican
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: in the state. He blested the two leaders of AI,
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: basically called the idiots. You'll hear who that is and
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: why he did it next. There's no question that Americans
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: are a little more than concerned about AI. Poll show
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: that most Americans are more concerned than excited about the
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: advent of AI. Seventy one percent are opposed to local
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: AI data centers due to energy concerns, and usually Republicans
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: are very pro AI. Donald Trump is as governors in
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: the South have come out saying, you want to put
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: an AI center in a community, you come to see us.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: But Steve Hilton, who right now is the top Republican
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: in California because he's running for governor, says that AI
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: and the people that started AI, started the revolution and
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: the evolution, have nobody to blame but themselves for the
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: bad publicity.
• 32:35
  Speaker 9: Two of the founders, in particular Sam Moltman and Amadey,
• 32:39
  Speaker 9: have been just a disaster for the reputation of the industry.
• 32:42
  Speaker 9: You know, of course they've had tremendous success in terms
• 32:46
  Speaker 9: of their businesses, but the narrative that they've been spinning
• 32:50
  Speaker 9: for years has just been catastrophic for public trust in
• 32:55
  Speaker 9: their own industry.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: This was at Politico's Open AI Forum. They actually talked
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: about a whole lot of different things, but they promoted
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: it as talking about AI and the advent of AI.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: And Hilton didn't stop there.
• 33:10
  Speaker 9: He went on, it's endless doom laden predictions about what
• 33:14
  Speaker 9: the things that they're working on are going to do
• 33:17
  Speaker 9: to our economy in our society. I think have fed
• 33:20
  Speaker 9: this and now they're sitting there thinking, oh, everybody hates us. Yeah,
• 33:23
  Speaker 9: I wonder why it's because you told them to fear
• 33:26
  Speaker 9: what you're building.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: It does seem odd, doesn't it. It seems self productive.
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: And Steve Hilton, who is really doing a good job
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: with this subject that is so important to all of California,
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: that's the AI epicenter, you know, Silicon Valley. His wife
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: is knowledgeable. She is a former communications chief for Google
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: and Facebook, so she had hands on experience with this.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: And Hilton, although obviously he's not a lot like me,
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: He knows technology. He now carries a foot phone for
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: his call and texts. Like Rihanna and others have said,
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: I don't need all the clutter. You know, you can
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: need me our texts. Okay, I can do it from
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: But there's another aspect to this that I'm gonna bounce
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: off Rich de Muro when we talk to our tech
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: guy in the next hour that he's right. The Open
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: AI guy, Sam Altman, who looks like a real schmuck.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: I hate him every time I see him. And the
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Anthropics guy was this Dario guy. They look vile and
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: they do indicate the most traconian things that can come
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: out of the development of AI. And you say to yourself,
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: why would you be so dystopian about something It's gonna
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: make you a lot of money? And those who are
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: competing with you, and then it all comes into focus.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: They're doing this because both of them are ahead right now,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: Open AI and Anthropics. You know it's a huge race. Hey,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: everybody's throwing money. Zuckerberg's throwing money in, Bizo's throwing money in.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: We know that the trollion there now, a Musk is
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: throwing money, the red Shy. You know, they're all in
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: this strange but they want to stop the game right
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: now and they want government regulation.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: That's a great that's a great take.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because they figure where is the lead.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: This will slow everybody down, because remember Bernie Sanders said, oh,
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: we should still be in session and we should have
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: some kind of guardrails. And the Republicans are even hinting
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: at this because they see this is like a runaway locomotives.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: So they're creating this horrible scenario.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: You said, nobody.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Usually you're a CEO because you're a good salesperson, you're
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: able to raise billions.
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: But apparently I didn't figure this out.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: People are willing to invest millions billions if they think
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: you have the technology that is bigger, badder, and more
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: uncontrollable than anyone else, because that's the one everybody's gonna want.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Oh sure, everybody's looking for a winner in this whole thing,
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: because they know there's gonna be some losers. They know
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: that money is going to be lost, there's gonna be
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: a bubble that's gonna burst, and then only a few
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: of the companies are gonna survive. No, that makes a
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: whole lot of sense, because other than that, it makes
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: no sense whatsoever to be bad mouthing your own industry
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: and your own product.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: Well, up next, the bubble burst on the dssay it
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: wasn't in Michigan, well El said it was in Wisconsin
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: with the aggubnatorial candidate, the Democrat hung. She barely lost,
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: but she was expected to win easily. And then the polls,
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: which Larry has said in all these races, no matter
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: where they were, South Carolina, Minnesota, Wisconsin, couldn't have been
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: more hopelessly wrong on all of these key races. So
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: we'll break it all down for you up next, But first,
• 36:43
