  Speaker 4: with Ali Bauman and the crowds that gathered.
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: Netanyahu should not represent Israel.
• 1:16
  Speaker 6: New Yorker Adina Eisenberg came out to the east side
• 1:19
  Speaker 6: Thursday to join the hundreds of people protesting against the
• 1:22
  Speaker 6: Israeli prime minister.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: It really hurts.
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: Me because my parents' generation came from Europe. The lost
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: older families there came to Israel, and here Netanyahu and
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: his government, with all his right-wing coalition, destroyed everything.
• 1:42
  Speaker 6: Demonstrators wearing shirts that read, Fund people, not bombs, put
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: First Avenue on pause with a sit-in. Famous dissidents, including
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: actors Susan Sarandon and Hannah Einbinder, were taken into custody,
• 1:56
  Speaker 6: along with city councilman Shi Osei and congressional candidate Darieliza Chevalier.
• 2:01
  Speaker 7: Every single human being of conscience who wants to end
• 2:04
  Speaker 7: these atrocities and apartheid and genocide must stand up against
• 2:09
  Speaker 7: Benjamin Netanyahu.
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: Demonstrations continued into the afternoon with hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: marching from Bryant Park to the east side. Earlier, outside
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: the UN, some gathered to greet Benjamin Netanyahu.
• 2:23
  Speaker 8: Israel's been on the front line of terrorism for the
• 2:26
  Speaker 8: last five decades, seven decades, and we're here to say
• 2:30
  Speaker 8: that just because the voice is.
• 2:31
  Speaker 9: Allowed, it doesn't mean we capitulate and don't exist because
• 2:35
  Speaker 9: terrorists think they can overcome us.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: The opposing demonstrations turned heated at times, with arguments escalating
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: into fistfights for some.
• 2:44
  Speaker 10: If you're talking about Jewish New Yorkers, there's a multiplicity
• 2:46
  Speaker 10: of views on this topic.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: Emily Cohen is a rabbi on the Upper West Side.
• 2:58
  Speaker 8: In addition to the names that we mentioned, police sources
• 3:01
  Speaker 8: tell us that activist Chelsea Manning, comedian Caleb Herron, and
• 3:05
  Speaker 8: assembly member Emily Gallagher were also arrested at protests today
• 3:09
  Speaker 8: in all roughly 100 people taken into custody. But we
• 3:12
  Speaker 8: do not yet have an official count. On the east side,
• 3:15
  Speaker 8: Ali Bauman, CBS.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: News, New York.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: And Prime Minister Netanyahu offered a fiery defense of Israeli's
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: military actions in Gaza and Iran, even as dozens of
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: United Nations delegates walked out in protest. He thanked President
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Trump and roasted Mayor Mamdani. Political reporter Marsha Kramer has
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: the story.
• 3:33
  Speaker 11: If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet
• 3:36
  Speaker 11: left this hall, please do so now.
• 3:39
  Speaker 7: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his supporters didn't take
• 3:43
  Speaker 7: his latest UN snub lying down. They chanted Am Yisrael Chai.
• 3:52
  Speaker 7: The state of Israel lives in the face of a
• 3:54
  Speaker 7: mass exodus that had been organized by the Palestinian envoy.
• 3:57
  Speaker 7: The Israeli leader defended his war in Gaza as a
• 4:00
  Speaker 7: battle against barbarians and said his decision to join the
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: United States in attacking Iran was one of the easiest
• 4:07
  Speaker 7: decisions he ever had to make as prime minister.
• 4:10
  Speaker 11: Because if we hadn't done it.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: We'd all be dead.
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: In a fiery speech, the prime minister said that Israel
• 4:16
  Speaker 7: had to defend itself on seven fronts, including Iran, Hamas,
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis in Yemen. He said
• 4:24
  Speaker 7: Israel had to.
• 4:25
  Speaker 11: Because we have no other choice.
• 4:29
  Speaker 7: And he predicted that ultimately the Iranian government would come
• 4:32
  Speaker 7: falling down because its people will rise up.
• 4:35
  Speaker 12: The Iranian people will be free.
• 4:37
  Speaker 7: And as a prelude to his attack on Mayor Mamdani,
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: who has accused the Israeli leader of genocide in Gaza,
• 4:43
  Speaker 7: he signed a report by urban warfare expert John Spencer,
• 4:46
  Speaker 7: who said Israel did everything possible to prevent civilian casualties.
• 4:50
  Speaker 11: Israel has done more to prevent civilian casualties.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: In war.
• 4:55
  Speaker 11: Than any other military in history.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: In history.
• 5:01
  Speaker 7: Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas did not agree. In a videotape
• 5:05
  Speaker 7: speech played earlier in the day, he said.
• 5:08
  Speaker 13: In the Gaza Strip, our people are being subjected at
• 5:12
  Speaker 13: the hands of the Israeli occupation forces. to killing, destruction, starvation,
• 5:18
  Speaker 13: and attempts at displacement, as well as a genocidal war
• 5:22
  Speaker 13: that has created an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe.
• 5:26
  Speaker 7: Netanyahu also accused Mayor Mamdani of being anti-Semitic and of
• 5:30
  Speaker 7: creating a climate of fear for Jews in New York.
• 5:33
  Speaker 11: Since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews
• 5:38
  Speaker 11: no longer feel safe in New York.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: Now, just outside of Grand Central, a Jewish pride rally
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: was held with groups waving Israeli flags. It was mostly peaceful,
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: but at one point, pro-Palestinian protesters passed by, and there
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: was a confrontation. We saw an Israeli flag being ripped apart.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Police were there, but.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: No word on any arrests.
• 6:00
  Speaker 14: The high-stakes summit at the White House. President Trump and
• 6:03
  Speaker 14: China's President Xi. The president gave President Xi a tour
• 6:06
  Speaker 14: of his renovations, his new helipad, saying President Xi loves
• 6:10
  Speaker 14: good granite. The question, did they discuss China's support for
• 6:13
  Speaker 14: Iran in this war and the concerns over artificial intelligence?
• 6:17
  Speaker 14: What we've now learned, and here's Mary Bruce.
• 6:19
  Speaker 10: President Trump pulling out all the stops to give Chinese
• 6:22
  Speaker 10: President Xi a lavish White House welcome, piling on the
• 6:26
  Speaker 10: praise right from the start, posting that Xi looks strong,
• 6:30
  Speaker 10: vibrant and fit.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Better than ever.
• 6:32
  Speaker 10: This morning, as Chinese state media filed into the White House,
• 6:36
  Speaker 10: three American news outlets, CNN, MSNOW and Politico, remained banned.
• 6:41
  Speaker 10: Television networks traditionally team up in a pool to cover
• 6:44
  Speaker 10: the president's every move. With CNN excluded, the other major
• 6:48
  Speaker 10: networks did not participate in pool coverage today. Inside the
• 6:52
  Speaker 10: White House, Trump declaring he and the Chinese leader, quote,
• 6:55
  Speaker 10: have forged a friendship, a truly great friendship, actually built
• 6:59
  Speaker 10: on mutual respect and the vital interests of our people.
• 7:03
  Speaker 10: He did not mention China's support for Iran as it
• 7:07
  Speaker 10: targets American troops and allies in the war. Xi calling
• 7:10
  Speaker 10: the interests of China and the U.S., quote, deeply intertwined,
• 7:14
  Speaker 10: adding their competition should be a race of catching up
• 7:17
  Speaker 10: with one another, not a wrestle in which one either
• 7:20
  Speaker 10: wins or loses. Much of today's summit consumed with pomp
• 7:24
  Speaker 10: and circumstance. Troops on display, military jets overhead. Trump showing
• 7:29
  Speaker 10: off his new helipad, telling reporters she, quote, loves good granite.
• 7:34
  Speaker 10: The president even taking she on to Marine One. They
• 7:38
  Speaker 10: spent only about 90 minutes meeting behind closed doors. By
• 7:42
  Speaker 10: the time they emerged, the White House had complied with
• 7:45
  Speaker 10: the judge's orders and restored access to the three banned
• 7:48
  Speaker 10: news outlets. On Capitol Hill, a number of Republicans joining Democrats,
• 7:53
  Speaker 10: outraged with Trump's embrace of Xi.
• 7:56
  Speaker 15: The idea that we are rolling out the red carpet
• 7:58
  Speaker 15: for authoritarian leaders, especially when we have very strong information
• 8:03
  Speaker 15: about China being engaged in supporting Iran, targeting us, everything's
• 8:08
  Speaker 15: turned over on its head right now.
• 8:10
  Speaker 14: Mary Bruce with us live again tonight from the White House.
• 8:11
  Speaker 14: And Mary, we know there's a big state dinner planned tonight,
• 8:14
  Speaker 14: but have we learned anything yet about What President Trump
• 8:16
  Speaker 14: and President Xi discussed behind closed doors today, did they
• 8:18
  Speaker 14: talk about China's support for Iran in this war and
• 8:21
  Speaker 14: all these concerns over artificial intelligence and this race between
• 8:24
  Speaker 14: the U.S.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: And China?
• 8:26
  Speaker 10: Yeah, David, they are getting ready for that dinner here tonight,
• 8:28
  Speaker 10: but there are real questions about just how much substance
• 8:31
  Speaker 10: was involved in the meeting here today. The president has
• 8:34
  Speaker 10: made it clear that he is not looking to put
• 8:35
  Speaker 10: additional regulations on AI, and publicly at least he's brushed
• 8:40
  Speaker 10: aside concerns about China's support for Iran in this war.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: How's Rinaldo doing?
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: He's doing great, Benny. Things are moving along very, very nicely. Well,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: except for the feds.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: They've been breaking our balls since he left us.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Figures.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: How's Santini doing?
• 8:57
  Speaker 12: You might see him next week, Benny. He's coming down
• 8:59
  Speaker 12: to New York.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: He's thinking of opening up some dealerships. That's good. You know,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Santini knows what's going on with all your problems down here.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: He just wants you to know that we have your back,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: if need be. That's really good to know, Barry. You know, Benny,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Renato's very unhappy about this guy. We've done a lot
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: with this f * * * ing guy and he's
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: very unappreciative. Very unappreciative. We're not happy about that. You
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: got a real boss down in Florida.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Thanks, Benny.
• 9:27
  Speaker 16: You know what?
• 9:27
  Speaker 12: For now, it is what it is. Just keep your
• 9:29
  Speaker 12: eyes open at all times. So open up this new
• 9:33
  Speaker 12: after hours, Jane.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Nice little spot. Speakeasy style.
• 9:37
  Speaker 12: Why don't you both stop in tonight?
• 9:39
  Speaker 16: I'm here.
• 9:40
  Speaker 17: F * * * it.
• 9:41
  Speaker 16: Why not?
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: I got to fly back tonight, but somewhere down the road, Barry,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: you and me. Sounds like fun, Benny.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: All right, great. While you're here, why don't you guys
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: get some suits? How nice is that? That's very nice.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Anthony, size them up. Sure thing, Benny.
• 9:54
  Speaker 17: How nice is that? That's very nice. Thank you.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Great.
• 9:56
  Speaker 12: Just what I need. Another suit to sweat my balls.
• 10:00
  Speaker 12: off in Florida. Hey, Ant, you got any alligator shoes?

• 10:08
  Speaker 1: tremendous job. He's a good guy. William DeMeo. Good morning, buddy.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: How are you? Thank you. Good morning. And you're a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: great guy yourself, Sid. You had this season, you added Adrian.

  Speaker 17: Yes.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Talia Shire.
• 10:19
  Speaker 18: Talia Shire, who's iconic. Amazing to have her. And Vince Cortola,
• 10:24
  Speaker 18: you know, who played Johnny Sack in The Sopranos.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: He's a great addition. The head of the New York
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: crime family.
• 10:29
  Speaker 17: Right.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Tony ran the New Jersey crime family. And yes.
• 10:32
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Vince is a great actor. And a big Republican. Vince
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: loves President Trump. He's been on this show before, believe
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: it or not, talking politics. And he's not shy about it.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: He doesn't care.
• 10:43
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: He's like, I love Trump. I love America. You don't
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: like it. Go F yourself. Johnny sucks.
• 10:48
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 10:48
  Speaker 18: You know, he's he's a great actor, too, and a
• 10:50
  Speaker 18: great guy. And Shaq, I mean, Shaq has been a.
• 10:55
  Speaker 18: Such a great addition to this cast.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, when we're shooting in the street.
• 11:00
  Speaker 18: There's thousands of people that come for him. I've never
• 11:02
  Speaker 18: seen anything. He is like, I've never seen anything like it.
• 11:06
  Speaker 18: How many people love this man.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Everywhere we go.
• 11:09
  Speaker 19: Huge.
• 11:09
  Speaker 18: From kids from 13 to people 80 years old, everybody
• 11:12
  Speaker 18: knows him. And he is one of the greatest people
• 11:15
  Speaker 18: I've ever met. He's so supportive of everything.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: And he could act. Yes, he did great. He could
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: actually act. Whether... seemingly is going to be very, very
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: rough this weekend. Trying to get a real meteorologist on
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: the show sometime this morning to give us that. But
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the reason why we played that song, besides the fact
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: we love Bobby Darin, is you basically hear that song
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: in every mob show, movie that you watch. It's one
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: of those songs, right? Lou, I mean... You know, they
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: have mob albums, and they've got Bobby Darin, Beyond the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Sea on those albums.
• 11:52
  Speaker 20: I'm looking at two of them right now.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Two of them right now.
• 11:55
  Speaker 20: It's just called Mob Hits.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Mob Hits, yeah.
• 11:57
  Speaker 20: That's what it's called.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: It's on there. So whether you're watching Goodfellas or probably
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: not The Godfather, but I don't know, a score of
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: TV mob shows, they play that song. I don't know
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: if we've ever used that song in Gravesend. Remember, Gravesend
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: is set mid-1980s Brooklyn. And while most of the day
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: we'll discuss Bibi Netanyahu, how amazing it was for me
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: to be in that building at the United Nations, watching
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: this fearless, amazing leader basically tell the world, F you,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: you're a bunch of liars. Mayor scumbag, anti-Semite, Jew-hating mayor,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Bibi Netanyahu. fearless, and brilliant. I'm going to get to
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: all that. It was really a day I'll never forget. Watch,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: and I've met Bibi a million times. I've dined with Bibi.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Dinners and lunches and hung out with Bibi every trip
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: in Israel. Every one. And you guys know, I'm not lying,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: he sent me that video to congratulate me on making
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. He doesn't do that. Trump did
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: it too. He doesn't do that. So Bibi and I
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: have a great relationship. The people in his office, his
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: senior policy advisor, Dr. Opio Falk, who's with me every day,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: every second of every day. Well, maybe not Sarah, but
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: at any rate, he's already texted me this morning. What
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: did you think? I guess I landed in Israel and
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: he wanted to know what Sid Rosenberg thought. And I
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: thought it was brilliant. But before I get to that,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: so today is the day, finally, we started shooting season
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: three of Gravesend. It's got to be two years ago.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, it feels like season two was a decade ago.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: It's got to be over two years. So people go
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: to me, you know, Sid, I know you can act.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: I'm not very good. I get it. But whatever, I'm cute.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I'm a famous radio guy. So he put me in it.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: And I am Brooklyn. And I talk it. I sound it.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: I look it. But, you know, I wasn't in season
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: one of that show. I found out about the show
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: after season one when I moved back to New York
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: in 2016. And then my buddy Larry down in Florida said,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: you know, you're in New York. Have you met this guy,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Willie DeMayo? I go, no, I don't know who he is.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: The show Gravesend, nah, never heard of it. Well, you
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: should watch it because you're going to love it. It's Brooklyn.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: And I watched season one. I didn't love it. It
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: was good. It was fine. I didn't love it. People
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: built it up like, oh, it's the next Sopranos. It's
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: the next Goodfellas. And it wasn't. It was cute. It
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: was fine. So I meet Willie DeMayo. And he says
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: to me, he goes, shit, I got to tell you.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Danny A did the same thing when Danny A put
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: me in that movie about Roy DeMayo. A real true
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: story about the bar in Kenosha, I guess, on Flatlands,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Gemini Lounge. I had a very, very small role. I
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: played a bartender opposite a very popular actress named Lucy Hale.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: But I did spend a week in Beverly Hills in
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles on a real movie set, and that was
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: kind of cool. Robert Davi and, you know, a whole
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: bunch of other, Emil Hirsch, very famous actors. But that
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: came after this TV show. This TV show, Gravesend, was
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: my first acting experience. Well, he said, you got the look,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: you got the sound. I'm going to put you in it.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I said, wow. I've never done that before. He goes,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: you're going to be great. And I remember, how many
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: years ago is this now? God, maybe five, no more,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: maybe six, seven years ago. I flew down to Miami.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: It was a brisk, chilly Miami day and sunny aisles.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: And I actually got there the night before, now that
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: I think about it. And Danielle and the kids were
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: meeting me the next night. So I flew down alone.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: And I got to the hotel. And 5.30 a.m. the
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: next morning, they told me to be in the lobby
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: because a bunch of producers and actors were going to meet.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: And they were going to drive us to this park
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: with a tennis court, a whole bunch of stuff, right
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: by Sunny Isles.
• 16:00
  Speaker 16: And I did that.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And I arrive, and the guy goes, that's your trailer, Lou.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I go, that's my trailer? Like, am I a real trailer?
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Am I a real actor?
• 16:11
  Speaker 20: Have your name on it?
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Had my name on it.
• 16:13
  Speaker 20: It did not, did it?
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: I swear to God. But it had my character's name.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: I play a mob soldier named Dave Busco. So it
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: said Busco. So there were two different doors on this trailer,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: right in the middle of a park on a brisk
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Miami morning. One of the doors was for me and
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: this really terrific actor. His name is Chris Mormando. Great actor.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: He did a big-time show on Channel 7 with 50
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Cent a couple years ago. And he's terrific in Gravesend.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: I didn't know he was. Never met these people. So
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: we shared one trailer, and the trailer next to us,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: the door next to us, said Andrew Dice Clay. And
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: I knew I was filming scenes that day with Andrew
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Dice Clay.
• 16:55
  Speaker 20: Look who made it.
• 16:56
  Speaker 17: Wow.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: I'm like, what? And I was scared to death. So
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I walk into my trailer, and there's this terrific actor, Chris.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: He's ironing his shirt. He's like right out of Central Casting,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: you know. He actually did go to prison. He's a
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: wonderful guy. And he calmed me down. I said, I
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: don't know. I've never done this before. They got me
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: filming seven hours of scenes with Dice today. So the
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: first scene, we got to walk on the beach. Willie DeMayo,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: who's the star. Marmando, me, and Dice. And Dice is
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: a huge star. I mean, he's huge. Right about this time,
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: he was up at the Academy Awards. for playing, what's
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: her name, Lady Gaga's father, I guess, in the remake
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: of A Star is Born. He was tremendous in that, Dice.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: So anyway, so we get to the beach. We're about
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: to film this scene. And I walk over to Dice,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: and I go to shake his hand. Now, he's been
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: on my radio shows over the years a bunch. So
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: I figured he remembered my name, which he did. But
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: I walk over to Dice to shake his hand, and
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: he literally turns around and walks away.
• 17:57
  Speaker 17: What?
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Swear to God. So I go to the director, Willie DeMayo.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I go, I can't do this. I go, first of all,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I've never done it before. Second of all, Dice is
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: a dick. He's a dick. And I was warned that
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: he was a dick. He goes, no, no, no. It's
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: got to be something up. So the truth is we
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: filmed this season two six years ago right in the
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: midst of COVID. I was sitting there in the airport
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: in Miami, surrounded. You couldn't even go into the airport
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: at the time without wearing a mask. You remember these days, Lou? Yes.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: So I'm sitting on the airplane in the airport in Jersey.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: I flew out of Newark that morning in Miami wearing
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: a mask. Hey, Pete, what's up?
• 18:38
  Speaker 20: Pete's here.
• 18:39
  Speaker 17: I didn't know.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Pete. I know. So I'm wearing a mask,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: and it turns out that Dice was really nervous about
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: about the whole COVID stuff. So he wasn't touching anybody,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: wasn't shaking anybody's hands. So when he found out that
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: I was really upset, and he knew he was taking
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: with me all day, he took me to the side.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: He said, listen, Sid, I know who you are, and
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: you know, you're great. He said, just understand that the
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: COVID thing has me very nervous. And then I was fine.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: And he was fine. And we ended up doing, honestly,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: about seven hours of shooting that day. Two or three
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: different scenes. It was great. I loved working with Dyson.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: He's not back for season three. He was only in
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: season two. But it was great. And the show did very,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: very well. It was a great season. He added a
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: lot of talent, a lot better than season one. And
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: when the season was over, he said, you're coming back
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: for season three. I said, great. And now he's added
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: a ton of talent for season three. Talia Shire, who
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: played Adrian in Rocky, and, of course, Godfather. She's in it.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: And the big star is Shaquille O'Neal. and he runs
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: kind of the black mob. And James Harrison, who was
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Bengals,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: is part of Shaq's crew. And one of the scenes
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: I shot, it's like two years ago already, with Peter Gordio,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: who's a terrific guy and a great actor, and DeMeo
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: was in this nightclub with Shaq and all of his crew,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: and we shot that scene until about 2 o'clock in
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: the morning at a place in Queens, and I had
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: to be on the air at 6 the next morning.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, I got to go. I got to go.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: I started bitching about 11 o'clock in the last three hours,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: and the same thing happened at Aunt Butchie's, the great
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: Italian restaurant on Staten Island. I'm like, I can't shoot
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: past 11 o'clock. It's 1 o'clock in the morning. I'm
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: still there, walking around with a gun. I go, guys,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: I can't do this. The radio show comes first, okay? So,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: long story short, I was only in about four scenes
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: in season three because I just couldn't do the schedule.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: It's too difficult. They had me in a lot more scenes.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: I was supposed to actually beat somebody to death with
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: a baseball bat, and I couldn't wait to do it.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: I couldn't make it. I couldn't make the scene. So,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: long story short, I'm still in, like I said, about
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: three or four episodes, I think, or three or four scenes.
• 21:03
  Speaker 20: Did you ever shoot that scene?
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: I did shoot this. No, not the baseball bat scene.
• 21:07
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: But I did, I got a great gun scene on
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: Staten Island. I got a great scene with Shaquille O'Neal.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I got a great scene with Tony Darrow. You know,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Tony Darrow, big time actor, good fellas. So the show
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: drops today. I have not seen any of the footage.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: You know, they put on these big parties every season.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: And they hold it at different catering halls and clubs
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: across the five boroughs. And Woody does a very good
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: job with that. And before season two, I went to
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: one with Mike Sullivan and his wife Donna, me and Danielle.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: So he watched a couple of episodes. This year, I'm
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: too busy. I'm at the White House. I'm at the U.N.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: I'm all over the place. So I had no time
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: to go to any of the parties leading up to
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: today's drop of Gravesend. So I haven't seen one scene.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I have no idea what it looks like. I can
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: tell you Bo Deedle is always great in this show.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: He's another guy that's in a lot of episodes. Chaz
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Palminteri is in this. Vince Curato, you heard us talk
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: about him. He played Johnny Sax in The Sopranos. And
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: this was the last acting job ever for Vinnie Pastore, who,
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: of course, played Big Pussy on The Sopranos. He's in
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: this show, and he died. He died a couple of
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: months ago. But there's a whole bunch of people. Armand
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: DeSante is in this show. We mentioned Talia Shire is
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: in the show. A whole bunch of really, really famous,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: recognizable people. Sal Licata is in the show this year.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: He plays a sports talk guy.
• 22:36
  Speaker 17: No, he's not.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: I swear to God. I swear to God.
• 22:39
  Speaker 20: He's got the name for it.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Willie goes and he finds anybody who's got even a
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: little bit of fame in New York, which is kind
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: of cool.
• 22:47
  Speaker 20: Or a little Italian.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: And he puts them on. Right, he's Italian, exactly. Because
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: I'm not. But I am with all the Italians in
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: that crew. He's the main boss, Benny. And I'm in
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: his crew. Sidney Ferris Rosenberg, part of that big mafia crew.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: So I'm looking forward to watching it myself because I
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: haven't seen it. Gravesend, season three, Amazon Prime, take your
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: mind off of China and Iran and the filthy, smelly, low-life,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: pro-Pali protesters like Susan Sarandon, who's now a fat skank.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Susan Sarandon, a smelly, fat skank. gets arrested yesterday with
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: that asshole G.O.C., who should be put in prison, the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: city council member, and Chevalier, the anti-Semitic, anti-American Congress lady,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: she hasn't won yet, she only won the primary, endorsed
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: heavily by Mayor Mamdani, all these lowlives, that's what they are, lowlives,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: liars and lowlives got arrested yesterday. Take your mind off
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: of all that, okay? Take your mind off the Jackson
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Dart injury, another lost season for the Metropolitans. Get rid
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: of all of it and just watch Gravesend. It's fun.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: The music is great. It's 1980s music, a lot of disco.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: The clothing is great. You know, for guys my age
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: or Lou's age or Pete Morgan's age, it takes you
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: back to what I think was a better time when
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: people like John Gotti ran this city. And at least
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: there was some law and order. Say what you want
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: about the mob, and don't say it like Curtis, or
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: you end up with six bullet holes and a lifetime
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: of retardation. Say what you want about those guys, but
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: they actually keep the city on the straight and narrow.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I know Rudy put a bunch of them in jail
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: before he became mayor, but when the mob is allowed
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: to operate, and I'm not talking about going out and
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: beating up guys because they lost the Packers last night
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: or that's nonsense. Those guys deserve to be put in jail.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: But when you let the mob do what they're supposed
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: to do, I'm here to tell you I'm actually okay
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: with it. I really am. In the mid-1980s, it was
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: starting to turn around here a little bit, you know.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: So the show is Gravesend. It's season three, and it
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: drops on Amazon Prime today. All right, let's get to
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: the U.N. So I show up. First, I had lunch.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: I think I told you this. The lady that runs
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: Marco Rubio's office, For the better part of 10 years,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: when Marco was still a state senator down in Florida,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: when he became a senator at the federal level, and now,
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: of course, the amazing Secretary of State, this young lady,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Laura Ortiz, has run his office all this time. And
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: the first time Marco was on this show last year,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: I had to book Marco through Laura. This time around
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: when Marco was on Tuesday, he texted me. And I said,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: could you come on today? He said, sure, give me
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: a time. I didn't even go through Laura. But Laura
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: and I become good friends, and we talk a lot
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: about politics in D.C. and Rubio, and she tells me
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: things I'm not allowed to share. So yesterday before I
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: went to the U.N., there's this really good luncheonette. Now,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: I go to one right around the corner. It's called
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: New York Luncheonette. It's on 50th between Lexington and 3rd Avenue.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: But there's another one. It's on 44th and 2nd. I
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: love the place. And it's called John's Coffee Shop. You
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: know that place, Lewis? You ever go to John's?
• 26:35
  Speaker 20: No, I have not gone there.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: 44th and 2nd, very, very good. So Laura and I
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: had a nice little late breakfast, pancakes, the whole deal.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: And she's Colombian. And what are the odds that right
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: before Bibi spoke, the vice president of Colombia spoke? So
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: she was actually in the room at the U.N. when
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: I entered to watch Bibi speak. But first, her and
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: I had a great lunch. She went her way, and
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: I went down to the meeting spot. I was told
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: to meet on 46th and 2nd to get my credential
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: to make my way into the U.N. to see Bibi speak.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: One o'clock. So I got there at one. We were
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: not ushered into the U.N. until about 145. So you're saying, well,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: what did you do for 45 minutes? I'll tell you
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: what I did. All these spectacular, great Jewish New Yorkers
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: from Alan Dershowitz, who sat outside with me, he'll be
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: on this show today for many, many minutes. Two other
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: recognizable names, people like Stella Escobedo, who's been on this
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: show quite a bit. Taylor Fallick was on this show.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: We all waited on that street corner, 46th and 2nd,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: to be ushered into the U.N. Now, right across the
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: street from us, on the opposite side of the street
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: on 46th and 2nd, was this dirty, filthy, disgusting pro-Palestinian group.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: And there was about 100 of them holding up signs, genocide.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Bibi Netanyahu is the C word. We're all pedophiles. You
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: go to my Twitter account today. I posted a picture
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: of me and Alan Dershowitz, the nicest man ever, 88
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: years old, brilliant attorney, right? And almost every comment on
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: my Twitter, at SidRosenberg19, Every comment reads pedophile, pedophile, two pedophiles.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Did he keep his underwear on? How does it feel
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: to bang a 12-year-old girl? Every, and I showed it
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: to Lou this morning. Lou in the car on the
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: way here. Am I exaggerating when I say almost every comment?
• 28:48
  Speaker 20: Yeah, it's crazy.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: It's alarming. This is how sick and twisted and disgusting.
• 28:54
  Speaker 20: It didn't end.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: It didn't end.
• 28:56
  Speaker 20: It went scrolling down.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Once in a while they threw in genocide and the
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: other lies. But the pedo comment is there about a
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: million times. And these lowlifes who spend their days and nights,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: like the mayor, lying about Israel... or Jews like Dershowitz
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: and me, this is where they go. Epstein, Petto. I mean,
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: they're just disgusting. And these are the morons that were
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: across the street. So what would happen is, as long
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: as they were across the street, we were fine. But
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: every now and then, two or three would meander, make
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: their way towards my side of the street. And I
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: can't handle it. I'm not mature enough. So I start
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: walking home. over and I'm cursing, you mother effer. I
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: will beat your effing face. I will effing kill you
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: right here, right now. So the cops, they love me.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: All the cops love me. They know me. They love me.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: They're friendly with me. And they go, sit, sit, sit, please, please.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: We're doing our job. I go, I know that. I
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: love you guys. But you can't tell me you're doing
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: your job when that piece of garbage just walked to
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: our side of the street. Keep the animals in the
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: zoo across the street. As long as they don't come
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: into contact with us, I'm not going to say a word.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Five minutes later, same thing. They got signs, genocide killers everywhere.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: baby killers, pedophiles. And again, I walk up to one person.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: I'm cursing the hell out of him. I'm in his face.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: One of them is a rabbi, a rabbi, these disgusting
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Satmar Jews, like this Moshe Indig, who actually tweeted yesterday,
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: you piece of garbage, tweeted yesterday. Bibi, you're no friend
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: of the Jews. Don't speak for me, Moshe, because you're
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: on the take. Every stereotype about the Jewish people, these
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: Satmar rabbis, they make it possible because they're doing some
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: money deal with this mayor, and they don't care about
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: the blood of innocent Jews on the streets of Jerusalem.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: They don't care. Tonight we start the holiday of Sukkot.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: These losers, Jews, put this anti-Semite mayor inside their Sukkot.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: He's on Twitter yelling and screaming, you don't represent the Jews. Yes,
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: he does, dickface. You don't. I don't care that you're
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: a rabbi. You're a lowlife. He actually said in his tweet,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: Mamdani is a friend. A Jew? Some rabbi? I don't
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: know what rabbinical school he went to. How much money
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: he got to do this job, I don't know. He
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: called Mamdani a friend. Mamdani's wife. Talk about skanks. light
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: images of girls being raped and babies being murdered and
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: old men being beheaded in their homes in Israel. And
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: this piece of garbage rabbi in this ridiculous, and I
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: know not all of them are this way, but too
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: many in this ridiculous Satmar community, he's defending Mamdani and
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: blasting Bibi on Twitter. And all these rabbis, Jews, were
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: across the street from me yesterday. And when one walked over,
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: and I say this, Not happy. I don't like to
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: go after my own people. But they're not my people.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: They're demons. They're devils. I almost dragged this guy the
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: full three blocks to the U.N. I really wanted to
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: kill the guy. I'm sorry. That's how I felt. And
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: I yelled and screamed a couple of times. I got
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: in a couple of people's faces. And eventually, and the
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: cops kept pushing me back. Dershowitz was like, there's my security. Eventually,
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: at about 1.45, our usher came out, an ambassador, and
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: walked us from 46th and 2nd to the United Nations,
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: which was about three blocks away. And it was packed.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: You got to understand, there's like 90 world leaders, and
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of protests going on yesterday. Not just
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: the Jews. That was the most of it. But there
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: was like an African protest and a Colombian protest. And,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, the city's so gross as it is. It's
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: so gross. And you got a mayor. I know, Frank Morano,
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: you like this, too. And I love you, Frank. I'm
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: not bad-mouthing you. I love you. The First Amendment has
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: now gone perverted. It's a perverse First Amendment. Every now
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: and then you want to rally about something important. That's
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: one thing. But these animals that roam our streets, that
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: for the most part are out there to hate, commit violence, intimidate.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: That's not what the First Amendment is all about. And
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: that's all we do in New York. That's all we do.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: There's really almost never a really good cause. Never. And
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: that's because the mayor encourages it. You know, and then
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: he goes, I'm not going. I'm not going. Well, it's
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: too late. You lit the fuse, you dumbass. So there
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: were these protests all over the streets. When you get
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: to the U.N., it's packed, you know. And as I said,
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: when I entered the building with Alan Dershowitz and Tila
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: and many others, the vice president of Colombia was speaking.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: It was pretty packed downstairs. Now, we have to sit upstairs.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: That's how it works. Downstairs is all the people that
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: work there. A bunch of, I'm sure, very nice people,
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: some of them, but a waste of time. I mean,
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: if the United Nations... closed today today i'm telling you
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: we'd be no worse off it is an anti-semite anti-american
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: everything we stand for all our values they hate at
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: the united nations if they closed that place today we'd
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: be better off And I'm saying this after a magnificent
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: speech by my guy yesterday and a great speech by
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: President Trump, my other guy, on Tuesday. Both Trump and
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Bibi were brilliant. If they shut the doors today, the
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: city and the country would be better off. A bunch
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: of losers. So it's packed. We make our way upstairs
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: to the gallery, I guess. And the vice president of
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: Columbia stopped. And out comes Bibi Netanyahu. And all of
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: us up in the gallery, they go nuts, chanting, Am
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Yisrael Chai, Am Yisrael Chai. Loud, I mean loud. Loud,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: it was great. It was like a Red Sox-Yankee game.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: And fist pumping, which I was doing, I was on
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: TV a couple of times. And the enthusiasm for the
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: prime minister, if it was a 1 to 10, was
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: a 13. But just like they do every year, A
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: lot of these Jew haters downstairs, and I can't even
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: tell you what countries they're from.
• 35:45
  Speaker 17: I don't know.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: Some were wearing headwear, I guess. Some were different colors.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: They start walking out. And in the past, I think B.B.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: was probably dismayed, probably disappointed. Now he's like, oh, you
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: know what?
• 36:01
  Speaker 16: F you.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: He actually said to quote B.B., any more of you
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: moral cowards. want to join your friends here, I would
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: get up and leave now. And some did. Some actually
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: did get up and leave at that point. Not many.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Not many. I can't tell you what countries walked out
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: who remained loyal to Bibi and Israel and the United States,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: because when you're loyal to Israel, you dumb bastards, you're
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: loyal to the United States. We are America first and
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: Israel second. We've always been that way, and we're always
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: going to be that way, no matter how many Tucker
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Carlson's are out there, no matter how many stupid rallies
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: you do in the city. Good Americans are America first
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and Israel second. And that was the case yesterday. So
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: they walked out, and we didn't care. And B.B. said, good,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: get out, you bunch of cowards. And then B.B. did
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: what I wanted him to do. I'm watching these local reporters,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: even after B.B. spoke on New York One, Melissa Russo
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: doing interviews with Bruce Blakeman going, why would the prime
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: minister of Israel spend time on a national stage talking
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: about the mayor? Really? I mean, you either really are anti-Semitic,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: which is hard to believe because Melissa Russo is Jewish,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: or you're stupid. Now, I think in most of these cases,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: it's a combination of both. I really don't. A combination
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: of both. What do you mean, why would Bibi waste
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: his time on the mayor? How many issues does New
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: York City have?
• 37:33
  Speaker 17: Let me guess.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: You think it's all going great here, right? You think
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: it's going great? Crying the numbers are down? Sure, I guess.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: You know, murders and a lot of numbers are still up.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: This is not a safe city, not by any stretch.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: The tax situation is good here. That's funny because people
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: are leaving this state by the droves. The police situation,
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: you feel like the mayor's got the cops' backs because
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: the cops hate his guts. How many different issues do
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: I need to get into right here, right now, before
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: you admit that the city is failing? Failing in a
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: big way. I don't care that Mamdani's approval rating drops.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: Somewhere is 60-something percent. The city has proven themselves to
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: be morons by voting this guy in in the first place.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: So the same morons that voted him in are going
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: to stay loyal to him even though it is clear
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: the city is failing. But yet, what does Mamdani talk
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: about almost every day, Bibi? Every day. We got to
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: arrest him. He's a war criminal. That's a lie. Genocide.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: That's a lie. Every day. Every day. And I never
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: hear Morgan McKay. I never hear Melissa Rousseau. I never
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: hear Marshall Kramer. Let me ask you something, Mr.
• 38:56
  Speaker 17: Mayor.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: What about this issue? What about that issue? Why are
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: you so obsessed with Bibi? But if, God forbid, Bibi
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: comes to town and he calls out the mayor for
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: being what he is, a low-life anti-Semite, All the reporters
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: on New York One, that communist channel led by a big, black, stupid,
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: racist Errol Lewis, they can't wait to break Bebe's balls.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Why would Bebe talk about Mamdani? Oh, I don't know.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: Has Mamdani mentioned Bebe? Maybe a million times. So, yes,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: he came to the city that voted this animal out.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: into office this city that goes out of their way,
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: the local media, to run cover for this anti-Semite. And
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: he told the truth. Bibi said it on that 20-second video.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: And it was true to his word. I am going
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: to come to New York. I'm going to talk about
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: Israel's issues, which still exist with Hamas, with Hezbollah, with Iran.
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: He talked about all of that. It wasn't just Mamdani.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: He thanked President Trump, which I thought was very, very nice. But, yeah,
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: he was going to come here and after taking a beating,
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: an unprovoked beating from a lying, filthy mayor, a disgusting,
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: radical Islam mayor, he was going to have his couple
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: of seconds in the sun. And he was magnificent. He
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: was great. As I told you moments ago, I told
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: you this earlier, One to 10, Bibi was a 13.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: That's a man of courage. That's a leader. Not lying
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: every single day. So my base is happy. That lady Chevalier,
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: who was arrested with those stinking pro-Palestinians yesterday, that lady
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: actually wiped her dirty hands one day with an American flag.
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: That lady agreed with Hassan Piker that America deserved 9-11.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: And who endorsed that lady enthusiastically? Mom Donnie. Don't tell
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: me this guy loves America or he's not an anti-Semite
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: because a bunch of stupid rabbis, a bunch of stupid
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: rabbis invite him during the holidays to their Sukkot because
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: they're making money together. Don't tell me I know the truth.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: I tell the truth here every day. You know why
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: people love me? When I walked the streets yesterday, I
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: get as much love as any, as Trump. People can't
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: wait to take a picture with me and hug me.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: You don't believe me? Wait till Alan Dershowitz comes on
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: later on today. They love me. You know why? Because
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: I tell the truth. I tell the truth. And that's
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: exactly what Bibi Netanyahu did yesterday. He told the truth.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: This city education. Our kids are morons in New York.
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: Not mine. Mine are great. But our kids are morons.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: This guy's got a million issues. He walks around like
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: he's Giuliani. He's got a million issues. And all he
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: cares about, all he thinks about, all he obsesses about
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: is B.B. And the local reporters are taking B.B. to
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: task because he took out Mamdani? I don't think he
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: spent enough time on Mamdani. Well, how about that? So
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: congratulations to Bibi Netanyahu. And I'll tell you something else.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: Congratulations to the judge, Weinberger upstairs, Rita Cosby, Governor David Patterson.
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: I spoke to all of them yesterday. Very pro-Israel. Only
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: one of those three is Jewish, the judge. They also
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: thought Bibi was amazing. That makes me happy. When I
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: speak to somebody who's not Jewish, but they're honest and
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: they're rational and they're not a bunch of haters and anti-Semites,
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: and they go, I got to tell you, Bibi was great.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: That makes my heart warm. See, it's easy for Sid
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: Rosenberg to say it. Yet, yet, again, a large population
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: of Jews in this city hate Bibi and hate Israel.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: And I just don't get it. I don't get it.
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: They'll be loyal to an anti-Semite before they'll be loyal
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: to a Jew. And they call themselves rabbis and like
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: Moshe Indig, like Rabbi Teitelbaum. That's why I freaked out,
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: me and Laura Loomer, when President Trump had those people
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: at the White House. They don't represent decent Jews. They
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: wouldn't step near Israel. Not in a million years. So
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: that's going to be the theme of today's show, I guess.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Brian Kilmeade will be here. KT McFarlane, both very, very pro-Israel.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: Joseph Takapina, pro-Israel. Alan Dershowitz. Joe Benningo is going to
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: be here today. Maybe Willie DeMeo as well. So it's
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: going to be a fun show. It's going to be
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: a big show. It's a Friday. But the lies stop here.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: You want to flood the streets. You want to wear
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: your stupid white T-shirts. You smell like you haven't showered
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: in weeks. The ugliest, I mean this, I don't know why,
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: But the most unattractive, physically unattractive people you've ever seen.
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: They look filthy. They smell disgusting. Holding the same signs
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: they've been holding for two and a half years. And
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: now fat Susan Sarandon, she's one of them. I don't
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: know who this other person is, Hannah something or other.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: I don't care. Here, you're going to hear the truth.
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: Because that's what we do. Every day on Sid and
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: Friends in the morning.
• 44:48
  Speaker 19: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 44:52
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: Mr. Peelis Borders himself, who sponsors everything on this radio station.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Pete Morgan, one of my nearest and dearest friends. He
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: had long hair and used to smoke a bunch of
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: weed and follow the Grateful Dead all across the country.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Is that right, Pete?
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: Well, not exactly, but, well, very little weed in the background. Well,
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: a big smoker.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: Never really smoked weed.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: All my buddies, yeah, they loved it.
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: But you didn't love it. You weren't much of a
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: Grateful Dead guy either. I meant the whole story.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: No, I liked the Grateful Dead. I liked them a lot, yeah.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: A lot?
• 45:25
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Not as much as you liked the Rangers.
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: No, of course not.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, so where are we? Here we go. The fall
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: is coming. And we know that because this is the
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: last weekend of the baseball season. Week three already of
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: the NFL. But your main thing is the Rangers. You
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: love the Rangers. I know you love the Giants too.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: And the Yankees.
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: And the Yankees. But you're a Ranger guy at heart.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: So is there any reason, because you go to like
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: every game, you and Takapina, is there any reason to
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: be excited about Ranger hockey this year?
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: Well, it's no different than spring training, right? Everybody's optimistic.
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: No, that's not true. I have no optimism about this team. No.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: I think they'll surprise you.
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: Why?
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: A lot of young kids.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're good?
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the kid Smiths is good.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: Okay. But do we have any veteran talent to go
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: along with these young kids? The kid.
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: The Russian kid that they brought in is really good.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: He's so good, you don't even know what his name is.
• 46:14
  Speaker 15: 38, 40.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: Do you know who he is?
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: Sounds like Francesa. Number 91. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: But he's good.
• 46:21
  Speaker 17: Okay.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: So I think they open Tuesday night in Boston.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: The regular season.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Next Tuesday.
• 46:27
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: In Boston.
• 46:29
  Speaker 17: Yep.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: It was 5-1.
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: Home opener is next Thursday night.
• 46:32
  Speaker 16: Uh-huh.
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: I think it's Tampa.
• 46:33
  Speaker 9: Okay. Okay.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: So do I have to listen all year to you
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: and Tackett Pinochow to tell me again that Chris Turkin's
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: the greatest goalie ever?
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: He's fabulous.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: He's so great. He's won nothing. I mean, nothing.
• 46:42
  Speaker 17: Zero.
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: Back to you.
• 46:43
  Speaker 17: Nothing.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: How about winning something at some point?
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: You're a big Dan Marino guy.
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: Greatest quarterback. Oh, really?
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: What did he win?
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: He won nothing. That's right.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: He did get to a Super Bowl, though.
• 46:54
  Speaker 17: He did.
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: Chesterkin hasn't even gotten there yet. At least Lundqvist got
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: to the finals. He lost to the Kings, but he
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: got there. Chesterkin's won nothing. He's won nothing. And there's
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: been times the last couple of years where, to be honest,
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: the old Jonathan Quickwater retire was better than Chesterkin during
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: the regular season. So I don't want to hear it anymore.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: Just go out there, win games. Be good. Everybody's gone.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: Kreider is gone.
• 47:17
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Pavlich is gone. And Ray Routelainen is gone. And who's
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: the other guy? The Russian spy, Panarin.
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: He's just gone.
• 47:26
  Speaker 16: All right.
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: So what is your prediction? Playoffs or not? Yes. Playoffs
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: for the Rangers. Yeah. And quickly, we got Beningo coming
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: on here.
• 47:34
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: Joe, too. No, I'm not going to ask about the Rangers,
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: but I will ask about the Giants because you're a
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: big Giant guy. Craig Carton was on with my friend
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: Brian Kilmeade on Box News yesterday because Craig now works
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: with Outkick.com. So he's a big Box News guy. I
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: love that about Craig. And he said the season's over.
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: I tend to agree. Harbaugh says no. But you think
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: Garoppolo or Jameis Winston is taking this team to the playoffs?
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: You're nuts. Is the Giants season over?
• 48:01
  Speaker 16: No.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, God. What is the matter with you? Rangers are
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: making the playoffs. The Giants season isn't over. I mean, Jesus.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: You guys are unbelievable. You're a huge Mets fan.
• 48:13
  Speaker 17: Right.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: Well, you used to be. I used to be. I
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: hate the Mets. I actually hate the Mets. You're brutal.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: But the Mets, oh, they stink. They stink. They had
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: the best record of baseball the first five months of
• 48:26
  Speaker 2: the year last year, and then all of a sudden they...
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: Crap the bed, and then you're the worst team on
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: the planet.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what you do the first five months.
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: The last day of the regular season, if you're not
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: playing postseason baseball, which the Mets haven't done in two years,
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: and they've gotten worse and worse, while Alonzo hits home
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: runs every night in Baltimore, who cares about the first
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: four months of the season? The Mets are perennial losers.
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: But you're optimistic. No, I'm not. While it's going good.
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: No, I'm not. I always expect the other shoe to fall,
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: and it does. There's no reason to be optimistic about
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: any teams right now in New York outside of the Knicks.
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: That's really it. And the Yankees. The Yankees are still
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: going to be tough. I know Cole can't pitch and
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: they can't score on Judge. Although, Justin, is Judge coming
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: back for this Red Sox series? He says he is.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: No way.
• 49:15
  Speaker 20: They said Giancarlo might.
• 49:17
  Speaker 17: I know.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: I saw that. That was the one. insane thing I've heard.
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: I know. They actually said that Oscar Gamble may be
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: back for this series.
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: He's got his hair in the building.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: But, yeah, Boone and Judge need to get on the
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: same page because Booney says he doesn't think about it.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: We'll talk to Beningo about this. What did you think
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: of BB's speech yesterday? Did you watch it?
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: You know, I heard some of it was in the car.
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: I thought I heard you in the gallery screaming.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: No, you did. No, I'm serious. At the very beginning
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: when he started, and the lady who worked up there
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: walked over to me. True story. I told this yesterday
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: on this station in the afternoon. She walked over. She said, sir,
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: you can't yell. You have to be quiet. I said,
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: I swear to God. You ready for this? Says who?
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: Swear to God.
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: The phrase that always pays.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: She goes, says me, I will throw you out. She
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: got very, very quickly. She went from zero to 60.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: I will throw you out.
• 50:09
  Speaker 20: She wasn't a fan then and said, oh.
• 50:11
  Speaker 9: You're the guy.
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: No, no, no. She works in the U.N. Of course
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: she hates me. She works in the U.N. She knows
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: who I am. She hates me.
• 50:16
  Speaker 20: I have your shirt.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: Can I get a picture with Sid?
• 50:21
  Speaker 20: Let's say Sezu together.
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do it, baby. So I was fist pumping,
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: but I shut my mouth. But in the beginning, I
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: was yelling, yeah, baby, way to go. You walk out, cowards.
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: You walk out, bitches. He's like, sir.
• 50:35
  Speaker 20: Great job.
• 50:36
  Speaker 21: No, they're probably looking to throw somebody out there after
• 50:39
  Speaker 21: the days they're having in that place.
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah. The parts I heard, he was excellent.
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: Wasn't he great?
• 50:44
  Speaker 16: God.
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: Great.
• 50:45
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: Well, it's good to see you. How do you feel
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: these days? Pretty good.
• 50:49
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: You look like, I swear to you, I'm not just
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: patronizing you. You look a lot better.
• 50:52
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: You put some weight on. You got color back in
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: your face.
• 50:55
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 50:55
  Speaker 20: You stop the weed, everything's great.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, the drugs were killing you, I told you.
• 51:00
  Speaker 17: That's it.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: Stop the weed, just take the edibles.
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: Stop drinking at Morton's. Music or the weed, one or
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: the other. That's right. Has these big glasses of scotch
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: at the Morton's in Mahwah, New Jersey. Is that where
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: we used to go? Was it Morton's or Ruth Chris?
• 51:12
  Speaker 16: I forget.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: It was River Palm Terrace.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: Oh, I like that. But that wasn't Edgewater. That was
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: in Mahwah, right?
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: But they had one in Mahwah, too.
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: They did, right, yeah.
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: And, in fact, Benigno was there.
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: Now, you know where Benigno lives right now?
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: Mahwah, New Jersey.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: He moved to Mahwah.
• 51:26
  Speaker 22: Yeah.
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: Perfect. We'll take a break. We'll come back and go
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: to Mahwah, New Jersey.
• 51:31
  Speaker 19: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 51:34
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: Let me get to Beningo. I love him, too. Happens
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: to be the legend at WFAN on every Saturday morning.
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: On with us weekly and is one of the more
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: common sense guys you'll ever meet. And he has become
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: this really smart, Political guy. Not just the Jets and,
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: you know, the Mets and the Rangers and the Knicks.

  Speaker 1: He knows what he's talking about. So here he is,
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: the great Joe Benigno. Joseph, good Friday morning, buddy. How
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: are you?

• 52:08
  Speaker 17: a couple things. First of all, happy birthday to your wife.
• 52:11
  Speaker 17: My birthday is tomorrow.
• 52:12
  Speaker 9: No way!
• 52:13
  Speaker 17: I will be a ripe... Big number, 70-f-in-3. Oh, man. Wow.
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: Happy birthday. You're going to be 70-sweet.
• 52:22
  Speaker 17: I got pain where I didn't even know I had
• 52:24
  Speaker 17: body parts anymore. Happy birthday, JoJo.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Thank you, guys. Now when you say, oh, the pain.
• 52:30
  Speaker 17: Of course, the weather is going to cooperate. It's going
• 52:32
  Speaker 17: to be just a gorgeous day on my birthday. I'm
• 52:34
  Speaker 17: so excited about that. What a disgrace.
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: So what is your beautiful wife, Terry? I do love her.
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: What has she got planned for you?
• 52:43
  Speaker 17: You know, we're supposed to have a little party because
• 52:45
  Speaker 17: my granddaughter's birthday is today. My beautiful granddaughter, Simone, she's
• 52:49
  Speaker 17: 18 today.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Wow, big.
• 52:51
  Speaker 17: Just started college. Goes to Felicia University in Jersey. Plays volleyball,
• 52:55
  Speaker 17: the whole deal. But her birthday is today. She's 18.
• 52:57
  Speaker 17: So we're supposed to have a double party, a double
• 52:59
  Speaker 17: cake thing tomorrow. But with the weather being what it is,
• 53:03
  Speaker 17: I don't know how it's going to play out. So
• 53:05
  Speaker 17: that's where it is. That's what's happening for tomorrow. But, yeah, 73,
• 53:10
  Speaker 17: I'm getting old. In the words of War, one of
• 53:13
  Speaker 17: the great underrated groups of all time, slipping into darkness.
• 53:19
  Speaker 17: And I'll give you one more, too. In the words
• 53:23
  Speaker 17: of the great old blue eyes, the chairman of the board,
• 53:26
  Speaker 17: not Whitey Ford, the chairman of the board, the great
• 53:28
  Speaker 17: Frank Sinatra, I'm in the autumn of the year, Sid.
• 53:31
  Speaker 17: You know what I mean? I'm in the freaking autumn
• 53:34
  Speaker 17: of the year, and Thanksgiving is approaching fast. Now, With
• 53:40
  Speaker 17: that said, I want to bring this up, too, because
• 53:43
  Speaker 17: you were talking to Pete about the Grateful Dead. Now,
• 53:46
  Speaker 17: I was never a big dead guy, okay? Never. Garcia,
• 53:50
  Speaker 17: we were all those guys, but I was never a
• 53:52
  Speaker 17: big dead guy. In 1974, when I was in college
• 53:55
  Speaker 17: in beautiful Franklin, Indiana, I went to see the dead
• 53:59
  Speaker 17: at the old Fairgrounds Coliseum in Indianapolis, where the Pacers
• 54:02
  Speaker 17: used to play before Market Square, whatever they call that
• 54:05
  Speaker 17: place now. Yes. They've had about three different arenas.
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: I believe that it was in that arena where John
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: Minko received oral outside the women's bathroom.
• 54:14
  Speaker 17: Oh, is that true? I'll stay out of that, Sid. 1974,
• 54:15
  Speaker 17: Grateful Dead, the greatest concert I ever saw. I have
• 54:17
  Speaker 17: to tell you. And I was not a big Dead guy.
• 54:27
  Speaker 17: I might have been stoned.
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 54:29
  Speaker 17: But it was the greatest concert I ever saw.
• 54:31
  Speaker 16: Wow.
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: That's a huge bringing in.
• 54:33
  Speaker 17: When I tell you, these guys were spot on that night. Really?
• 54:36
  Speaker 17: They really were.
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: Do you have a favorite Grateful Dead song?
• 54:40
  Speaker 17: That's a good one. You know, everybody loves trucking and
• 54:45
  Speaker 17: all of that. What's the song you just played?
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: Shakedown Street. I love that song.
• 54:50
  Speaker 17: Yeah, that's a good song.
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: That may be the best one.
• 54:52
  Speaker 16: Yeah.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: That is a good song. I'm going to give you
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: one opportunity here to go back. And take out a word.
• 54:59
  Speaker 17: By the way, I'm heading to the weed store after
• 55:02
  Speaker 17: the show.
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: I know you still love the cannabis. I know you
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: love the cannabis. But I'm going to give you an
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: opportunity with that said to take out the word might have.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: Two words.
• 55:10
  Speaker 17: Might have.
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: When you said I might have been stoned.
• 55:13
  Speaker 17: There's no question. No doubt about it.
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: You were high as a kite, weren't you?
• 55:16
  Speaker 17: I don't know about a kite, but I was up there.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: Joe, Joe, did you see my man B.B. speak yesterday
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: at the United Nations?
• 55:25
  Speaker 17: You know what, bro? I watched Big Don's speech. I
• 55:28
  Speaker 17: watched B.B. 's speech. I thought both of them were tremendous. Now,
• 55:31
  Speaker 17: I didn't know. Now, wait a minute. So I saw online,
• 55:34
  Speaker 17: I saw the picture of, you know, giving the fist
• 55:36
  Speaker 17: bump to B.B. and screaming at all the people that
• 55:39
  Speaker 17: were walking out and all that nonsense. Did they throw
• 55:41
  Speaker 17: you out of the U.N. yesterday?
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: No, they didn't. They threatened to. The lady threatened to.
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: She said, you cannot scream. I said, says who? And
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: she said, I'll throw you out of here. She actually
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: said that. So then I sat down next to my friend,
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: Alan Dershowitz, and I was fist pumping. I would get
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: up and give him a standing ovation often, but I
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: did not yell after that. They did threaten to throw
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: me out, yes.
• 56:01
  Speaker 17: Oh, okay. The woman that threatened to throw you out,
• 56:04
  Speaker 17: does she look like that woman? And what does she see?
• 56:06
  Speaker 17: Is the head of the European Union? And they all
• 56:08
  Speaker 17: have that same look, you know?
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 56:10
  Speaker 17: You know what I mean? They all have, like, that same, like,
• 56:13
  Speaker 17: look on their face. Their hair is pulled back, you know?
• 56:16
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 56:17
  Speaker 17: They look like androgynous, you know, type deal.
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: And they hate us. They hate America. They hate Bibi.
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: They hate Israel.
• 56:24
  Speaker 17: They hate me.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Yeah, I don't care.
• 56:25
  Speaker 17: Where do they find these women?
• 56:26
  Speaker 9: I mean.
• 56:27
  Speaker 17: Oh, my God.
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: Where do they find them? They're all over New York City.
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, I walked around the city yesterday. It was gross.
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: There was rallies all over the place and stinking pro-Palestinians.
• 56:38
  Speaker 17: Unbelievable.
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 56:39
  Speaker 17: Horrible. I saw where Susan Sarandon got thrown out with
• 56:41
  Speaker 17: a pro-Palestinian thing going on.
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: Well, she got arrested. What do you mean thrown out?
• 56:45
  Speaker 17: She got arrested. Arrested.
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: That's what I mean. Her and that wannabe Congress lady
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: whom I'm Donnie endorsed. Oh, yeah. Chevalier.
• 56:54
  Speaker 17: What's her name? Chevalier, right?
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: She got arrested, too. Chi Osape on the city council.
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: He's a loser. He got arrested. It's horrible. What's going
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: on in the city is terrible. But none of it
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: really amounts to what I talked about with Pete, too,
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: moments ago. And that is that the injury to Jackson Dart.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: The Giants season is over, right?
• 57:13
  Speaker 17: It's done. I wouldn't say that. Let me just say
• 57:16
  Speaker 17: this about Dart, and even though I'm a Jet fan,
• 57:18
  Speaker 17: I love Dart on many levels. The fact that he's
• 57:22
  Speaker 17: a Don guy, we love that about him. He's got
• 57:26
  Speaker 17: one of the most smoking hot girlfriends you could have.
• 57:30
  Speaker 17: A lot of good things about Dart. I do not
• 57:33
  Speaker 17: think the Giants season is over. I think you can
• 57:35
  Speaker 17: win games with Jameis Winston. You have a very beatable
• 57:38
  Speaker 17: Tennessee team coming in this week. You got Arizona after that.
• 57:42
  Speaker 17: You know, there's games they can win. Washington, the quarterback
• 57:45
  Speaker 17: looks like he's done now for the season, Daniels. But,
• 57:49
  Speaker 17: you know, no, I'm not saying the season's over yet. No,
• 57:52
  Speaker 17: I can't.
• 57:52
  Speaker 16: No, I am.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I love Cam.
• 57:54
  Speaker 17: Well, you can say that.
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I love Cam Scott about a kid's terrific.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: I love his attitude, his enthusiasm.
• 58:01
  Speaker 12: Take it easy.
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: He's not Marcus Allen or Barry Sanders. He's not going
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: to rush for 230 yards.
• 58:05
  Speaker 17: No, no, no, no, no.
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: And, by the way, I watched Tennessee last week against
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: the Eagles with your guy Robert Sala.
• 58:11
  Speaker 17: Should have beat the Eagles.
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: Right, exactly. They're not going to be easy this week.
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: They're not.
• 58:15
  Speaker 17: Yeah. How about last night? I couldn't believe it. I
• 58:18
  Speaker 17: didn't see the game last night because I refused to
• 58:20
  Speaker 17: pay for these games on Thursday night. But let me
• 58:22
  Speaker 17: just say this, okay? First of all, the Jets should
• 58:25
  Speaker 17: have beat the Packers. But the Packers got whopped last
• 58:29
  Speaker 17: night by the Falcons at home.
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: Well, the Falcons, listen, the Falcons had to start Cooper
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: Rush the first two games. They did get their start.
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: They got Pennix back last night, right? And the Jets
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: should have beaten the Packers, but your coach, Aaron Glenn,
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: still has no idea how to coach in the NFL.
• 58:43
  Speaker 17: Well, I put a lot on him. He made some
• 58:46
  Speaker 17: bad decisions in the game. I thought the game turned
• 58:49
  Speaker 17: when they were up 14-7 and he decided to kick
• 58:51
  Speaker 17: a field goal instead of going for it on fourth
• 58:53
  Speaker 17: and one on the eight-yard line. I thought that was
• 58:56
  Speaker 17: the turning point of the game, especially with the defense
• 58:58
  Speaker 17: playing well. But look, penalties, they had a million penalties,
• 59:02
  Speaker 17: some big penalties that really killed them, that pass interference,
• 59:05
  Speaker 17: the one out of bounds hit by Brownlee in the overtime,
• 59:09
  Speaker 17: the punt return, which really hurt him as well that
• 59:13
  Speaker 17: set up the tying field goal. I don't want to
• 59:16
  Speaker 17: rehash Sunday's getting a fourth and one at midfield. You know,
• 59:19
  Speaker 17: you're not running the freaking ball off. Frank Wright did
• 59:21
  Speaker 17: not have a good game either. You're not running the
• 59:23
  Speaker 17: ball well all day. You got a fourth and one
• 59:25
  Speaker 17: at midfield. How about throwing a pass there? How about that?
• 59:28
  Speaker 17: You know, they're all looking run. So how about we,
• 59:31
  Speaker 17: instead of running, you know, Braylon Allen up the middle, okay,
• 59:34
  Speaker 17: and get nothing, you know, how about maybe we throw
• 59:36
  Speaker 17: a pass there, but, you know, what are you going
• 59:38
  Speaker 17: to do? Typical Jet loss, bro.
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: Tell me about the Yankees, Red Sox, Tuesday, I guess,
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: game one. You like their chances?
• 59:46
  Speaker 17: Yeah, even without George. Why not? Why not? I mean,
• 59:51
  Speaker 17: you know, they got the best pitcher in the American League.
• 59:53
  Speaker 17: I mean, I'm a little concerned about Cole. You know,
• 59:56
  Speaker 17: last time I watched him, I watched the Mets hit
• 59:58
  Speaker 17: about 15 home runs against him at Yankee Stadium.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: Right, and by the way, the game before that, when
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: the Mets did hit all those home runs, the game
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: before that, he started against San Diego, and their first
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: three batters all hit home runs. Right.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 17: Yeah, you got to be a little worried about Cole.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 17: You know, Freed, a couple of these other guys are
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 17: not bad. I still think the Yankees, they got the home,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 17: you know, they're going to play all these games at
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 17: Yankee Stadium. I still think they'll find a way to
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 17: win that series. I really do.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: Me too.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 17: Who knows?
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: Well, after that, they'll play Tampa. They can beat Tampa.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 17: Yeah, they can. They can beat them.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: Then you're in the ALCS.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 17: I think the Yankees, if you had judge, I'd say
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 17: Yankees in a World Series, no doubt about it. You know,
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 17: without Judge, they got tempered a little bit, but they're
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 17: still a very formidable team. I wouldn't bet against them, Sid,
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 17: getting to the series.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: Me either. I'm with you. I think they do make
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: it there, and then they get beat. But either way,
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: is it, do you still feel like, based off their
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: first win in 50-plus years, that the Knicks are the
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: closest team to a championship? Or did LeBron James and
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: a whole bunch of other teams in the.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 16: East know it?
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 17: Yeah, I didn't give a break about Philadelphia. Come on,
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 17: they could have LeBron James. You know, they could have
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 17: Eddie James. I mean, you know, it doesn't really matter.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 17: You know what I mean, bro? I mean, they got
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 17: the biggest stiff of all time in Joel Embiid, the
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 17: only guy that gets hurt more than Gene Carlos Stanton
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 17: in the history of mankind, Joel Embiid. The Knicks have
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 17: dusted them. The only team that has beaten the Knicks
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 17: in the last three years in the playoffs is the
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 17: Indiana Pacers. That's it. They have dusted everybody. They beat
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 17: Philadelphia a couple times. The Knicks are still the team
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 17: to beat. And the season doesn't start. And I know
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 17: people are going to go nuts if they lose opening
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 17: night to Philly. Oh, my God, the sky is falling. Please. Now,
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 17: it's all about the season for the Knicks does not
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 17: start until April. So everybody calm down for the 82
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 17: games of, you know, regular season basketball where everybody's going
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 17: to go nuts and Knicks will lose five in a
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 17: row and it'll be the end of the world. Let's
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 17: fire Mike Brown, you know, all that crap. Give me
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 17: a break. We'll see. The season starts in April for
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 17: the Knicks.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: Last one, back to the Giants. I heard Jimmy Garoppolo's name.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: I've heard a few other names. Who seems to be
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: the leader in the club.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 17: Why would you want Jimmy Garoppolo? He gets hurt almost
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 17: as much as Stanton.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 17: Why the hell would you want him? Jameis is just
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 17: as good as Jimmy Garoppolo, if not better.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: I know, but you've got to bring in somebody anyway.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: They've got no backup.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 17: I understand that. I get it. I don't love Garoppolo.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 17: I don't love him.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: What about Vinny Testaverde? Can he still play?
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 17: He could. He'd be better than Garoppolo. I'll tell you that.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 9: I mean, he would.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 17: I know Garoppolo went to a Super Bowl, but still.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 16: I know.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: He did. He had a good year for San Francisco
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: that year.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 17: He did. I know.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: Did you see your friend Mike Florio, formerly of ProFootballTalk.com,
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: now NBC Sports, who says the Giants should bring in
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick?
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 16: Oh, come on.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 17: Come on, Mike. Give me a break. Colin Kaepernick. When's
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 17: the last time he played football?
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: Ten years ago, and I think he won one game.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: Come on, stop.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 17: He's been blackballed by the NFL. Let me say this, too.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 17: Can I say this while we're talking about blackballing the NFL?
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 17: I totally agree the NFL blackballed. I'm going to tell
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 17: you another guy the NFL blackballed. Let's be honest about it.
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 17: Tim Tebow.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 17: Let's be real. Okay?
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 16: Right.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 17: He was blackballed from the NFL.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: And he was blackballed because he loves Jesus. How disgusting
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: is that?
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 17: That's right. That's 100 because he was such a... You know,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 17: the kind of figure that he was, very polarizing guy.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 17: That's why he's out.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: I love Tim Tebow, and I despise Colin Kaepernick. I
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: hate his guts. Not as much as I hate Mom Donnie.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 17: I can't stand him either. I really can't. By the way,
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 17: great speech by Big Don at the UN. He was great.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: He was.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 17: And all this stuff. I mean, would she come in here?
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 17: I mean, you know. Don, let me just say this
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 17: to everybody. All the people that can't. If you think
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 17: this guy does not know what he's doing, okay, no
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 17: matter what he may be doing, you're out of your
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 17: freaking mind. I just, I have to say that. I
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 17: have to say it.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: All right. Maybe I'll get him to call you on
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: your birthday tomorrow.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 17: How about that? Please. I don't know if I'd be
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 17: able to. If I got a call from the big guy.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 17: from the greatest of all time, from the man. I
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 17: don't know if I would recover.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: You would clutch your chest right there like Sanford, like
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: what was his name again? Right. I'm coming, Elizabeth.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 17: All my relatives, I'm on my way. They're all gone.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 17: I'm the only one left.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: Well, thank God for that. We love you. We want
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: you on a lot longer. And I got to tell you,
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 1: you may be 73 tomorrow, but you sound, you got
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: the same enthusiasm, right, Pete?
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: And you're every bit as great as you were 30
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: years ago. So keep doing it, Joseph.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 16: Keep going.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 17: Yeah, well, we're trying, bro. You too, bro. You're doing
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 17: a tremendous job. Pete, how you doing? It's always good
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 17: to talk to you.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: Good, my brother.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 17: Lou Ruffino, the man, the myth, the legend that he is.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: Happy birthday, Joseph.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, happy birthday.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 17: Thank you, bro. Same to your beautiful wife, bro, right?
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 17: All the pain. Thank you.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: Oh, the pain. Enjoy yourself tomorrow.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 17: By the way, make sure you take care of business
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 17: on Sunday night, all right?
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: I don't need Sunday night to take care of business, brother.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: I'm still good, really good.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 17: I could only imagine. Hey, look, I mean, you know,
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 17: we won't get into that.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: I got a big birthday coming up this year, too.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: I'll be 60 in April.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 17: Are you going to be 60 soon?
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, in April.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 16: Wow.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not far behind you.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 17: You know, I've got to tell you this. When I
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 17: hit 60, everything started going south.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 9: Oh, no, no.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say this to you. I don't have
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: to wait to hit 60.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 9: 57.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: 57, it all started going south, so... Maybe you and
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: I get like a two-for-one deal at the funeral.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 17: This is so true. As soon as I stopped smoking cigarettes,
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 17: that was it. It was all downhill.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: I know. The doctors told me when I was a
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: young asthmatic, don't ever do drugs, don't drink.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 17: Don't smoke, you'll die. I mean, you never did any
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 17: of that.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: I did all of it, and I got better.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 17: By the way, can I say one more sports thing,
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 17: if you don't mind?
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 16: Sure.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 17: For once, the Mets did something right. They hired Andy
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 17: Green to be the full-time manager. I completely and 100%
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 17: agree with this. This guy did a really terrific job
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 17: with this team. And with all the young guys, all
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 17: these young players that this team has, the Benjes, the McLeans,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 17: all these guys. He is the right manager for this
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 17: team going forward. So, you know, in the disaster of
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 17: David Stearns, as I watched Pete Alonso hit yet another
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 17: home run, by the way, tremendous job by the Met fans,
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 17: you know, celebrating Pete when he hit his 300, the
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 17: standing ovation. and letting management know what a F-up they
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 17: did by letting this guy walk.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: A massive mistake. All right, happy birthday, Joe. You're great
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: as always. We love you.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 17: All the love, boys.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: All the love to you. There he is, the legend,
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: Joe Benningo, going to be 73 tomorrow.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 9: Wow.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: And his granddaughter, Simone, 18 years old today. My beautiful wife, Danielle,
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: celebrating a birthday on Sunday. Everything's good, right? Everything's good.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: I will take a break. A lot more to do today.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: Some more great guests. Brian Kilmeade, KT McFarland, Joe Takapina,
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: Alan Dershowitz, maybe DeMayo. All that to come Friday morning.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 19: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: We had about 20 people there last night. We had
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: an early dinner fundraiser for the great Bruce Blakeman. Bruce spoke,
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: and he was terrific. He really was great. He was
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: there with his whole crew, Chris Boyle and a lot
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: of his... You know, his driver is Anthony from Massapequa.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: I like that kid. And he spoke for about, I
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: would say, about 20 minutes. Alina Bonzel was there, too.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: She's running for office again on the Upper East Side.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: We like her. And don't forget, Wednesday night, I'm hosting
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: a big event for Caroline Schinkel, who was one of
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: my favorite politicians. She's running also for that old Jerry
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: Nadler seat. And we'll do something at Dorian's on Wednesday night.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: But Blakeman was great, and then we celebrated all of
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: our buddies' birthdays. The great Mark Oranger celebrated a birthday
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 1: last night. His birthday was September the 14th. We love
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: Big Mark. Also, Andrew Albstein, the great attorney, dear friend
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 1: of ours, and all your boys were there last night. Lewis,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: Keith Kantrowitz, Brad Wasserman, Al Volpe. We love Al Volpe.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: He's terrific. Big Chris, the whole crew.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 20: What about me?
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: You weren't there.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 20: Yeah, guess why?
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 9: Why?
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 20: Someone didn't tell me.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: Well, last time I told you, you said you couldn't
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: make it. I think it was like, I'll only give
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: you one day in advance. Remember that?
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 20: I don't even think it was one day. Well, it
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 20: was that. No, it was one day.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: It was one day.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: So we figured, okay, during the week, it's going to
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: be tough for Louie to make it, and I don't know.
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 20: I would have tried to make it.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: Okay, well, we missed you.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 20: Well, okay.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: In fact, at one point, Mark Oranger showed me a picture.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: He has a cartoon characterization of you and him. What
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: are you talking about? I don't know. You've got to
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: ask him about that.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 20: Well, maybe now I don't need to go.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 17: I don't know. I'm just going to do that.
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: It was great. And happy birthday to Oranger and Andrew Epstein.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: Everybody has birthdays these days, I guess. It's a big...
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: Birthday month, I don't know. We'll take a break. When
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: we get back, I spoke to my good buddy yesterday.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: He was really excited that I was heading to the U.N.
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: to see BB speak live. He's on this radio station
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: every day after me, and he's part of two great
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: shows on TV. Fox News, Fox and Friends and One Nation.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: Our colleague and friend Brian Kilmeade coming up. Sid and Friends.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 19: In the Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: Usually I dress very, very nicely. Sport coats, suits, all that.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: Today I just realized, just realized I'm wearing sweatpants and
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: a sweatshirt. It's Friday and my sweatshirt reads One Israel Fund.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: Sweatshirt that I received on my second to last Israel trip.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: I've now gone five times since October 7th. And I
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: love that country. And all the things I've done here
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: at WABC and the last couple of years in the
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: Oval Office with President Trump just a week ago and
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: meeting with J.D. Vance and talking to Marco Rubio on Tuesday,
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: all these great things. The Israel connection for me is
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: probably at the top of the list. And to be
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: sitting in that room yesterday, front row, right there with
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: Alan Dershowitz. Alan Dershowitz and I have been called a pedophile.
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: about a thousand times on Twitter since last night. Every
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: comment on my Twitter on the Rosenberg-Dershowitz picture screams, look
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: at these two ugly pedophiles. That's how disgusting this world
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: has become. But I will tell you, sitting in that
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: room at the UN yesterday, watching Israeli Prime Minister Bibi
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: Netanyahu speak was one of the greatest experiences ever. I've
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: ever had. And I'm going to tell you this too.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: He wasn't good. He wasn't even great. He was brilliant.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: 45 minutes and he put everybody in their place, especially
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: this disgusting, raging anti-Semite, lying, filth, radical Islam terrorist mayor, Mamdani.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: So Brian Kilmeade is one of my best friends, bottom line.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: I think he's a tremendous talent. He does everything. Great
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: shows at Fox News, Fox and Friends every morning, his
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: own shows, the best on the network, 10 p.m. Sunday nights,
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: One Nation. He follows me on this radio station every day.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: But one of the things I love about Brian is
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: he's not even Jewish. This guy is so pro-Israel, and
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: he tells the truth. And I know, without even speaking
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: to Brian yet this morning, I know this, that he's
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: going to agree with me that B.B. was nothing short
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: of brilliant yesterday. But Let's find out. Brian, good morning, buddy.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 12: Yeah, you know, Sid, again, you're in the eye of
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 12: the storm. Good job getting into the General Assembly yesterday.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: Awesome.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 12: I did not know you were there.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: I was there.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 12: I would think you stole my word.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: Brilliant.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 12: I mean, number one, I've always been impressed with him.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 12: I mean, the fact is, I could go back to
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 12: the Phil Donahue show when he was, you know, a young,
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 12: I guess you would call him lawmaker back then, emerging
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 12: political star in Israel. And I remember during the Persian
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 12: Gulf War in 93, I go, who is this guy?
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 12: He was able to explain, you know, when Scud missiles
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 12: were hitting in Israel, when George H.W. Bush was president.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 12: I thought, man, the ease in which he communicates and
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 12: understands America. And then after talking to Geraldo, I realized
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 12: they've known each other since college. He went to college here.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 12: So he really gets America, loves it, and really obviously
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 12: lives and dies Israel. But you and I make speeches.
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 12: And we really appreciate when people can broadcast and when
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 12: people can communicate. And knowing that there was no teleprompter,
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 12: he's got some notes in front of him, the smoothness
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 12: and directness in which he delivered it, the way he
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 12: uses his words to get right to the point. He
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 12: doesn't use hyperbole, he uses facts. And the fact is,
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 12: you know, they've been fighting a seven-front war for the
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 12: last two and a half years after an attack. that
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 12: was so brutal and unprovoked that people seem to have
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 12: forgotten it. And the fact that there were protests the
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 12: next day after it against Israel shows that there's somewhat
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 12: of a script out there out to upend Israel and
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 12: tangentially us. But Sid, listen, he's the best. I've always
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 12: been a fan. I've always really liked him. Listen, he
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 12: thinks Israel first. We think America first. All these countries
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 12: think of themselves first. But look at what Israel has done.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 12: They not only are able to sustain themselves in a
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 12: war where everyone fights, they innovate. Their economy is still
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 12: the envy of the Middle East. I guess it was Latvia.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 12: They went and visited. Can we do a weapons deal
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 12: with you? You know, you have other other nations of
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 12: Eastern Europe say, I love these guys.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, they do.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 12: They're a capitalist society who every day understands they got
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 12: to defend. They got to defend their security. So I'm
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 12: I hope he succeeds. I'm not really up to date
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 12: on Israeli politics. But what people should understand, you correct
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 12: me if I'm wrong. There's not one contender to lead
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 12: Israel that doesn't view Hezbollah, Hamas, and Iran as their
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 12: enemy and the Houthis as their enemy, who they will
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 12: attack back. You think Netanyahu is a problem? Any leader
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 12: would have gone into Gaza. You're going to tell me
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 12: that they would have just let 160,000 missiles just stay
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 12: in Hezbollah's hands? Well, they get rocketed and have to
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 12: evacuate the northern part of their country. Do you think
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 12: Netanyahu is the problem? He's not the problem. He's called
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 12: an effective leader, and that bothers you.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, just imagine if, God forbid, a Hamas
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: terrorist group bombed Cincinnati or bomb Brooklyn or bomb Oklahoma City.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: You don't think President Trump would go after every one
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: of them, find them wherever they were, even in a
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: school or a church and kill them. And that's what B.B.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: 's done. He's trying to protect this little land the
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: size of New Jersey with 10 million people. And he's
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: dealing with lies. I mean, I was interviewed yesterday. Some
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: kid named Timmy Paciola. He's some liberal kid and he
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: loves Mom Donnie. He's pretty popular. And I said, you're
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: one of these people screaming genocide. What's your proof? It's
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: like when I got thrown out of the State of
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: the Union under Joe Biden. I got thrown out because
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden, he was quoting the Palestinian health ministry as
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: if it was a credible source. Well, Joe Biden, you moron,
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: the Palestinian health ministry is run by Hamas. So whether
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: it's Susan Sarandon or somebody on CNN or Chi Osei,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: who's a lowlife in the city council, when they start
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: to scream genocide, war criminal, and Mamdani this piece of
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: garbage mayor... What's their proof? What are they using? What
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: is their empirical data that they're using that says Israel
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: is out there killing innocent Palestinians every day? Because when
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: you talk to honest people, they will tell you that
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: no country including our country, in the world does a
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: better job of protecting civilians, and some do die, that's war,
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 1: than Israel. There's no proof. These people just scream and
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: yell and protest. Where's their proof, Brian?
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 12: Well, Dev, you had John Spencer on.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: I was with him yesterday. It's so funny you said that.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting there with Dershowitz. We had to sit outside
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: for about 35 minutes before they actually walked us into
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: the U.N., Guy walks up to me, well-dressed, good-looking guy.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 1: He goes, hey, Sid, I'm John Spencer. So we ended
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: up talking for a bit yesterday. He's a very impressive guy.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: What did he say?
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 12: Well, number one, you have to have money. He's got
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 12: his book out. But he's the professor at the West
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 12: Point War College. And what he did is he studies war.
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 12: That's what they do. It's a war college. He went
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 12: over to Gaza five separate times. He fought in Afghanistan,
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 12: physically fought in Afghanistan. and he fought in Iraq. He says,
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 12: this is his assessment, they are more surgical in fighting
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 12: in Gaza than we were in Iraq. That includes Ramadi
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 12: and everything else where we cordoned off a whole city,
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 12: gave people IDs, and went house to house. They say
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 12: that they have dropped flyers, they send text messages, and
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 12: the way they've gone about it is looking out more
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 12: for innocent life Do you think John Spencer's thrilled about
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 12: saying that he's an American war college professor and an
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 12: officer in our military? He didn't go over there because
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 12: he has a political agenda. He gets no benefit of
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 12: saying that. But he said it. And I read this
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 12: and I thought we found him and I just dug
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 12: him out. And, you know, West Point's not thrilled that,
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 12: you know, he happens to be, he doesn't want to
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 12: speak for West Point. He's not allowed to, but I
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 12: can tell you that's his title. But read his book.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 12: He talks about it.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: This guy analyzes.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 12: And that's why when the ICC comes out and says
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 12: war criminal, they just have no credibility. You don't drop
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 12: flyers on people if you don't, if you're looking to
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 12: kill innocent people. Understand, without a nuclear weapon, Israel could
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 12: have killed everybody in Gaza. Everybody. That's called genocide. So
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 12: to have, and when Bill Maher comes out and says,
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 12: stop saying it, it doesn't fit here. You have to
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 12: go through, remember how long they held off in going
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 12: into certain cities because they couldn't get permission from Joe
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 12: Biden to go in there? And if you really want
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 12: to condemn any actions, how about Egypt for not letting
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 12: so-called innocent families, Palestinian families, leave Gaza in order to
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 12: elude the bombs? So, it's not, and you know this, Sid,
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 12: and I'm just doing it for the general audience. If
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 12: you don't believe what I'm saying and John Spencer's saying,
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 12: the money that was thrown into Gaza went to tunnels
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 12: and became an underground weapons depot, and they built all
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 12: the entrances and exits underground. in hospitals, schools, and playgrounds,
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 12: and churches, excuse me, and mosques, in the hope that
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 12: whoever would come in and they knew it would be
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 12: Israel would end up being labeled as killing innocent people,
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 12: baby killers, whatever you want to say. And guess who's
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 12: helping rebuild Gaza right now? the peace council, and they're
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 12: beginning to reassemble that place again without all the tunnels
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 12: being blown up, which many people think is a mistake.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 12: So I just have never seen such a, it's so
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 12: easy to know who the good guys are, and I
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 12: can't believe how few understand who the.
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: Good guys are. It's really sad and kind of scary.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: The great Brian Kilmeade follows me each and every morning
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: here on WABC, Fox and Friends, and of course, One Nation.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: Come with me. It was coming on this Sunday night.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: Quickly on President Trump and President Xi, the big summit
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 1: last couple of days. I know they discussed AI and
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: they discussed Taiwan and I guess a few other items.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: To be honest, I was all caught up with Bibi
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: and Israel yesterday. But how did that thing end up
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: going for you?
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 12: Well, look, with the whole pool coverage being denied, we
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 12: didn't get to see almost anything. Because, you know, we
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 12: went over this offline, Sid. You know, you got to
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 12: stand up. If you're going to ban the Politico and
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 12: CNN and the networks, there's a pool coverage. And for
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 12: people who don't know, we can't afford to cover everything
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 12: the president does. So they do a rotation. And ABC
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 12: will have one week. CBS will have another. Fox and CNN.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 12: There's only so many news organizations that have the wherewithal
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 12: and the infrastructure to be able to do it. So
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 12: the president goes to China. Maybe everybody can't afford to
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 12: send someone to China. So we have pool coverage. So
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 12: they kicked out Politico. CNN, ABC, and NBC, MSNOW. And
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 12: so everyone stood by him. So we have no pictures.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 12: And it's really, guess who's upset about the Chinese? Chinese
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 12: is like, we love being the dominant story here. And
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 12: how come no one's covering it? So I don't know
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 12: many details, except we got two pandas. We got two pandas. Well,
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 12: of course, they don't give them to us. They rent
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 12: them to us, right? They lease them pandas. So they go, hey,
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 12: I got good news. I got two pandas. I don't
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 12: care about pandas. I never liked pandas. They don't do anything.
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 12: We just ask them to procreate. They don't do it.
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 12: They have no interest in sex. How can you understand
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 12: an animal that has no interest in sex? We said basically, here,
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 12: you look exactly the same. Don't tell me you're not
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 12: attracted to each other.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: Go at it.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 12: And we get to keep the offspring. We never get offspring.
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 12: So that's what we got. But this is what we need.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 12: We need them out. I did not know this. They
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 12: are heavily behind the Houthis. Do you know that they're
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 12: providing material to the Houthis, including weapons and communications? They've
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 12: been doing this for years. And now we know the
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 12: satellite images they're providing to the Iranians to target our
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 12: guys and killed our guys over in July. So the
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 12: Iranians are all over this, and we know they're single-handedly
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 12: sustaining what's left of their economy by buying their oil.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 12: And I like when the president does it. The president's
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 12: a hospitality guy. When he rolls out the red carpet,
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 12: you're going to know it, right? He cares about people.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 12: You know that. But behind closed doors, I hope Scott Besson,
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 12: I hope Jameson Greer, and the president of the United
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 12: States go, look, I know you got a problem with
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 12: us as competitors. This has got to stop in Iran.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 12: This has got to stop yesterday, all right? We know
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 12: that you are sustaining two wars. You are sustaining the
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 12: Ukrainian war by supplying Russia. And you are sustaining the
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 12: Iran war by supplying Iran with satellite images. And guess what?
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 12: Weapons material. We have proof that weapons material arrived there
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 12: this summer. So to help them reconstitute their missile program.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 12: And guess where those missiles are going to go when
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 12: this thing heats up again? They're going to go flying
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 12: into Israel and right into our bases. And that's China.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 16: So.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 12: We're not doing that to Taiwan. Taiwan has got defensive weapons.
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 12: South Korea, defensive weapons. Japan, defensive weapons. They're providing offensive
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 12: weapons to kill Jews and to kill Americans. So that's
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 12: not what a competitor does. That's what an enemy does.
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 12: And I just hope they understand. Behind closed doors, we're
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 12: not going to embarrass them publicly. China, that's a third rail,
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 12: and I'll play by those rules. But behind closed doors, man,
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 12: I hope the president understands that this really does define
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 12: his legacy.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: I think he just nailed it. And speaking to Gordon
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 1: Chang yesterday, that's the guy, you know, the world, China,
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: I know they're going to kill everything. It's all, we're
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: all going to die. That seems to be the right message.
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: Brian Kilmeade.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 17: Okay.
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 1: We're just two days away. 10 PM Sunday night, one nation, big,
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 1: big show. What are we looking at in about 48 hours?
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 12: I think you guys have heard about that series, that
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 12: series on the TNT. It's about John Nixon. He's the
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 12: guy who found Saddam Hussein. He'd been studying Iran and,
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 12: Iraq right before 9-11. And after Afghanistan, they basically said,
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 12: we need someone to go find Saddam Hussein. He's the
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 12: one who did it. And then stuck around. They did
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 12: a fantastic series, got a chance to talk to him.
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 12: He's going to be joining us, a former CIA guy.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 12: And Saddam Hussein, one of his warnings was, he said, hey, America,
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 12: your real enemy are the turbans, the Iranians. And I
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 12: want to get his perspective. Lydia Moynihan, the extremely insightful,
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 12: the extremely insightful New York Post columnist. Kim Strassel is
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 12: going to be with us from Alaska. Did you hear
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 12: about the meltdown of this Mary Peltola who uses gay slurs,
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 12: abuses her staff, is now leading Dan Sullivan in Alaska
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 12: for that Senate seat? Not after this story. Kim Strassel
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 12: joins us from Alaska. Mike Lawler is going to be
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 12: with us too. So that'll be great. And I just
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 12: got a couple of things. And Kevin McCarthy. The other
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 12: thing I just want to add is when you talk
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 12: to the main theme of the show this week, the
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 12: president said something during his speech. I don't know if
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 12: you're able to do see it because you're on the air.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 12: You were just getting off the air when the president
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 12: was speaking, but he said, I'm not here in this
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 12: job for long and I'm not here to identify problems.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 12: I'm here to solve problems. I'm here to solve problems,
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 12: not just during my time that are going to solve
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 12: problems for the next person. That is the Trump. That
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 12: is the Trump mantra. He doesn't say it enough. He's
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 12: not looking to fix the border for now. He's looking
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 12: to fix it forever. He's not looking to fix Central
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 12: and South America for now. He's looking to do it
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 12: forever with Panama and do it forever with the Colombia
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 12: election and the Venezuela flip of the government and the
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 12: Cuba strangulation, which will result. He's looking to fix our hemisphere.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 12: And when it comes to the Middle East, we can
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 12: never have Middle East peace for Israel or anybody else
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 12: as long as that Iranian regime's in power. He's not
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 12: looking to... to get a short score. He's looking to
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 12: reconfigure trade for America. That's why he's got 20 trade
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 12: deals and tariff the entire world. So understand this. We're
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 12: going to be talking about this for years. Once we
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 12: look back at what Trump's doing, he's fixing the foundation
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 12: for America after he leaves. And I see his vision clearly.
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 12: And he finally said it concisely at the UN this week.
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 12: And that's really my theme.
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 1: He was brilliant, too. He talked about Bibi at the
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 1: top of this conversation being great. And I was upset
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: with President Trump. And I didn't hide it. I was
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 1: in every blog, every publication. MAGA radio host kills President
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 1: Trump over meeting with Mamdani. And I was pissed. And
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 1: I'll tell them again today. I'm not going to hide it.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: I found it to be grotesque, to be honest. But
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: the very next day, that Tuesday at the U.N., he
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 1: was pissed. Vintage President Trump, the guy that I fell
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 1: in love with a decade ago, right?
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 12: Absolutely. And, yeah, I know one thing about the president.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 12: He's excited about my book, October 13th. It's all he's
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 12: talking about.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 1: Is that right? Of course, our show.
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 12: Our show.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: October.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 12: Our show coming up October 17th at Westbury Music Fair.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 12: And we're going to look to sell this place out
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 12: so we get that rotating stage, Sid. And we're going
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 12: to start. We got your parts all set up. It's
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 12: depending on how active you want to be in our show.
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 1: I want to be very active. I'm excited about this.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 1: Even my wife was saying, you're going to be on
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 1: stage with Brian Kilmeade. What's that all about? I said.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 1: I can't tell you, but right now, I'm studying. You're
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 1: the only experienced actor amongst us. I know. You know
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 1: what's funny about that? I'm in an Amazon Prime series.
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: I talked about it about 30 minutes ago. It's a
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 1: mob series. I was in season two, six episodes. Anyway,
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 1: we shot season three. And very famous actors in this,
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 1: Chaz Palminteri and Vince Giratolo and the guy that just died, actually,
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 1: who played Big Pussy on The Sopranos. And Shaquille O'Neal's
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: got a huge part. It's William DeMeo's series, Gravesend. And
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: season three happens to drop on Amazon Prime. And I'm
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 1: in four episodes of that. How about that?
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 12: That's unbelievable. How the hell do you do that?
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm actually pretty good, too. I come
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: off as a real mobster. I come off pretty good.
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 1: But looking forward to your big night in Westbury and
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 1: looking forward to your TV show Sunday night. And as always,
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 1: Brian Kilmeade, you're beautiful. I love you. Thank you so much.

  Speaker 12: Go get them.
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 1: All right, buddy. You too. It was a crazy week,
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 1: no doubt about it. Brian Kilmeade, he's coming up at

• 1:28:36
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: Joining me right now, she's on. everybody because she's great.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: A regular now on Fox News, has worked for four presidents,
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: most recently President Donald J. Trump, my friend. KT McFarland,
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 1: I know you heard the conversation, KT, between me and Brian,
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: and it's been a crazy week for me. Last Thursday,
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 1: I was in the Oval Office with President Trump. I
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: met with J.D. Vance in his office in the White
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: House on Tuesday while Marco Rubio was here in New
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 1: York at the U.N. Him and I spoke for quite
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: some time, and here I was yesterday in the United Nations,
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 1: front row with Alan Dershowitz, watching Bibi Netanyahu. I would
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 1: think you would agree that's a pretty good week, huh?
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 22: You know, not only is it a pretty good week
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 22: for you, but it's a historic week. The meetings that
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 22: you were having with those people... In a time of
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 22: enormous change in the country and in the world, you
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 22: really have the, you know, you were like the fly
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 22: on the wall. Not the fly on the wall. You
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 22: were a guy at the seat at the table. Very impressive.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 16: Very impressive.
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 1: Thank you. And I really thought that Bibi was tremendous.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: You know, he's.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 18: Yeah, I did.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know you heard me. I had to fight
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 1: off a bunch of these stinky, filthy, disgusting, lying pro-Palestinians,
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 1: idiots like Susan Sarandon. Almost came to fisticuffs two or
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 1: three times with the cops. Love me. They took care
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 1: of me. But going in there and listening to Bebe
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: point out all the lies from the mayor, this genocide,
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: which is not happening. It's just not. It's a lie.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: War criminal. You know, the world was just waiting for
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to jump on Israel because it's a cool
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 1: thing to be anti-Semitic these days. And these morons in
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 1: this country and around the world are buying all the propaganda,
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: all of it. It's all lies that Hamas is throwing
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 1: at them. And it's disappointing and it's sad. But Bibi said,
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: I'm here today to tell the truth. And that's exactly
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: what he did.
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 22: You know, I first met him just decades ago when
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 22: he was just making his way as a junior politician.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 22: And I remember thinking at the time, well, if there's
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 22: anybody who's going to make peace in the Middle East,
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 22: who's going to bring security to Israel, it's this guy.
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 22: And remember, I've met most of the Israeli leaders, Golda Meir,
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 22: et cetera, et cetera, over the decades. And he struck
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 22: me as somebody who, first of all, had a vision.
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 22: And secondly, it wasn't about his own personal popularity, political popularity,
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 22: and that it was a cold-hearted vision where he understood
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 22: that Israel is always going to have to live in
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 22: that neighborhood. It's always going to have tough neighbors. How
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 22: can you ever get to the point where Israel's not
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 22: fighting with its neighbors? And the Abraham Accords, which obviously
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 22: were President Trump. It was obviously the Gulf Arabs. But really,
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 22: it was Bibi Netanyahu. So I think he's always been,
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 22: to me, somebody who had potential to be a great leader.
• 1:31:30
  Speaker 22: And at the U.N., it was a brilliant speech. I mean,
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 22: he laid it all out. Did it change anybody's mind?
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 3: No, no.
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 22: People who already hate Israel are going to hate Israel.
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 17: Of course.
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 22: People who love Israel. But I think it's a very
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 22: important thing to make the case, to put it on
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 22: the record that that's what the truth is, so that
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 22: people can look back 5, 10, 50 years from now
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 22: and say, okay, that was the reality at the time.
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 1: We can only hope. I mean, you get the New
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 1: York media, and I'm going to play an interview that
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 1: I did when I walked out of the brilliant speech
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 1: yesterday with some guy on the street. He's relatively popular
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 1: here in New York, and He's like, well, why would
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: the prime minister take his time on an international speech
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 1: and talk about the mayor? I said, Timmy, you're not
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: that stupid, are you? What does the mayor do every day?
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 1: Every day in a city that's got a million issues. KT,
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: he's fixed nothing. Nothing. There are still potholes. There are
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 1: still hate crimes, especially against Jews, every day. Taxes are
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: out of control. People are leaving every single day. Cops
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 1: don't want to work in this city. I mean, this
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 1: guy's done nothing but make it worse, and all he
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 1: talks about All he talks about every day is Bibi.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 1: He's a war criminal, which is a lie. He's committing genocide.
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: That's a lie. He wants to arrest him, which he
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 1: knows he can't do. So when the press in New
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 1: York has the nerve, the nerve to actually criticize Bibi
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 1: for bringing up the mayor in a city where they've
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 1: been threatening to arrest him for the better part of
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: nine months, that's where you see the bias, the prejudice,
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 1: and the anti-Semitism. No?
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 9: No. Yeah.
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 22: And why is Mondami doing this? I'm sure he truly
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 22: believes that, you know, Israel should be exterminated and all
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 22: Jews are terrible. But he's doing it to distract from
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 22: the fact that he's done none of the things he promised. Remember,
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 22: he had a huge list of things, all the free
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 22: stuff that was going to happen. None of it has happened.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 22: And so what is it convenient for him to do? Well,
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 22: let's look at a boogeyman. Let's go find a foreign enemy.
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 22: Let's go after somebody who can't really come after me.
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 22: And again, I think it was an important thing for
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 22: Bibi to make that speech, to call out Mandami, not
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 22: to pretend that it's, oh, it's all fine, paper it over. No,
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 22: it's not all fine. And I guess the final thing
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 22: I would say about Bibi is when you think of
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 22: where the world was five, seven, ten years ago, what
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 22: has Bibi managed to do? And you take the big,
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 22: long picture. Well, all of Israel's enemies surrounding Israel have
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 22: all been either decimated or exterminated, Hezbollah, Hamas, etc., He's
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 22: gotten a peace agreement as a security agreement. No, but
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 22: as a trade agreement, yes, with the Abraham Accords, which
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 22: now have turned out with the Iran war to really
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 22: morph into a security arrangement with those countries. And when
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 22: the Iran war is finished, and I do think it
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 22: will be finished, whether it's a month, six months, a year,
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 22: it will be finished. Then there will be an opportunity
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 22: for peace in the Middle East for the first time in,
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 22: I don't know, three, four thousand years.
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: We kept saying for a long time, though, that the
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 1: Iran war needed to be over certainly months before the midterms.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 1: And that's not going to happen because it's not going
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: to happen before the midterms at all. And even if
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: it ended today, we're still not months before the midterms.
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 1: So clearly, President Trump decided that the Iran war was
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 1: not going to hurt us, the Republicans, come November. I
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 1: don't know if he's right. I love the president. I
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: don't know if he's right. I hope he's right. But
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: why is this Iran war still happening?
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 22: You know, I think President Trump has concluded, at least
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 22: President Trump first term and second term are very different leaders.
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 22: President Trump first term was fighting his way. He was
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 22: being constantly, you know, impeached and everything else. Couldn't get
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 22: his agenda accomplished.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: By the way, that could happen again. That could happen
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: again very, very soon.
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 9: And he knows it.
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 22: And he knows it. And I respect the moral courage.
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 22: of Donald J. Trump for saying, I am not going
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 22: to let Iran get nuclear weapons. I'm not going to
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 22: let Iran be the bully of the Middle East. I
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 22: know it's going to cost me. I know it's going
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 22: to cost my reputation. I know it's going to cost
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 22: me in the election box. And I'm going to do
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 22: it anyway, because it's the right thing to do. And
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 22: God bless Donald Trump for putting not just the country,
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 22: but the world in front of his personal popularity. He
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 22: knows it's going to cost him But he knows that
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 22: he's got to do it. And from the Iranian perspective,
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 22: they think, ha, ha, ha. We are going to we're
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 22: not going to give any victories to Donald Trump before
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 22: the election. We're going to make sure that the election
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 22: goes against Donald Trump. And we're so powerful we can
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 22: do it. And what they don't understand is that, as usual,
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 22: Iran overplays its hand. What they don't understand is the
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 22: day after the election. Trump has no inhibition. There's nothing
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 22: to stop him from finally settling the score.
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 17: Right.
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 1: Could get ugly. You know, I watched all the poppin' circumstance,
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 1: and again, these morons on the left that say, why
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 1: is he doing that? What do you want him to do?
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: Xi did the same thing when Trump went to Beijing.
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 1: That's what you do when world leaders come to town,
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 1: even if you don't like them. Now, Mamdani's a different story,
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 1: because he's a mayor in an American city, and he's
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 1: an anti-Semite and a communist, and all the things that
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: Trump rails about. So I was very critical of President Trump,
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: and I'm not going back on that. I hated what
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 1: I saw Monday. But I get it. I get it.
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 1: Like Marco Rubio said, we're not going to bring the
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 1: president of China here and not go out of our
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: way to make him feel comfortable.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 9: But.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: My question to you is, with all the pomp and
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: circumstance and smiling and handshaking, do you have any doubt
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: that President Trump and America hates China every bit as
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: much as we hate Iran?
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 22: You know, the great thing about China historically, what they've
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 22: always done with other countries, is that they bring them
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 22: to Beijing and then they treat the leaders, you know,
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 22: like kings and they fawn all over them while they're
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 22: at the same time stabbing them in the back. While
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 22: they're doing it. And President Trump, first of all, is
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 22: a consummate host, as Brian Kilmeade just said. He just
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 22: loves to be the host. So he's the consummate host
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 22: to the Chinese. But think about if you're Xi Jinping,
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 22: what have you just seen in the last week? You've
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 22: seen Donald Trump get that Greenland deal, which is completely
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 22: edged China out of Greenland. and edge China out of
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 22: the Arctic Circle. You've seen Donald Trump in the last
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 22: several months. Venezuela, oil used to go from Venezuela to China,
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 22: not going there anymore. Donald Trump, blockade of Iran, oil
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 22: used to go from Iran to China, not going there anymore.
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 22: So you might have the bans and it's all very
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 22: nice and everybody's really happy clinking the champagne glasses. But
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 22: at that White House dinner, you had all of the
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 22: tech titans of the world They're not Chinese. They're American
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 22: tech titans. There aren't very many tech titans in China.
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 22: It was Americans. And Xi Jinping was there after seeing
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 22: this sort of series of disadvantages that have been brought
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 22: to China by Donald J.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 16: Trump.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 22: So give him all the pomp and circumstance you want.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 22: The reality is that Donald Trump has been one tough
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 22: president on China.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 1: Final 60 seconds. What's going on with Cuba? I kept
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 1: hearing right after Venezuela, Cuba was next. What's going on there?
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 22: Well, I think it's ready to go. Cuba's ready to go.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 22: They've had the meetings between the people who want to
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 22: invest in Cuba, some Cuban-Americans who are in Miami now
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 22: who might go back and invest. Marco Rubio's thing is
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 22: all lined up. It's just a matter of when they
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 22: do it, when they want to pull the plug. Maybe
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 22: they're waiting for Iran to be finished. Maybe they're waiting
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 22: for the elections, but I think Cuba is ready to go.
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 22: And it will be, as President Trump talked about, this
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 22: is his vision. We're not going to be Europe centric
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 22: or we're not going to be Asia centric. We are
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 22: focused on the Western hemisphere, a hemisphere at peace and
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 22: prosperity with each other. And that's the goal. And Cuba
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 22: is the last piece of the puzzle.
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 1: It really is. KT, another magnificent appearance. I love when
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: you call early and stay on hold. I'm like, man,
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 1: that's really humbling for me. KT McFarlane enjoys the program
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 1: so much, and she would sit on hold for literally
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 1: 30 minutes just to listen and then come on and
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 1: do a magnificent job yourself. So thank you, as always,
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 1: for a great appearance. We love you on Fridays. Have
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 1: a great weekend. We'll talk to you soon.
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 22: Thank you.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 1: God bless you. KT McFarlane right here on Sitting Friends
• 1:39:59
  Speaker 1: in the Morning. Continues to be one of our most
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: popular guests. We'll get the news going. Two more great
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 1: guests still to come. I sat right next to this
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 1: 88-year-old brilliant attorney yesterday watching BB's speech. My dear friend,
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't know they were both pedophiles until this morning
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: on Twitter. Who knew? Me and Alan Dershowitz, who joined
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 1: us today. Another great attorney. He's a little younger than Alan,
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 1: but he's damn good himself. Joseph Takapina.
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 19: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 1: So this is my baby, and there's nobody better at
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 1: it than me. I'm going to say it, and I
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 1: know other radio hosts get upset, and they argue. They're
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 1: just wrong. I'm the best radio host in the country.
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 1: It just is what it is. I mean, God bless
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 1: me with this amazing talent. I'm not great at a
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 1: lot of things in life, just so you know, but
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 1: at this, there's nobody better. I'm not sure there's anybody close.
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 1: But I took up acting a couple of years ago,
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 1: and I'm not great at that. It's fine. They say
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: I'm great. I don't know. They keep giving me opportunities.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 1: I actually thought John was really good. And Marty Supreme.
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 1: But I get these acting opportunities. And Willie DeMayo gave
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 1: me my first chance to act in Gravesend. Season 2.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 1: I was not in Season 1. Six episodes. And he
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 1: brought me back for Season 3. And Season 3 is
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 1: going to be awesome. And it drops today. So if
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 1: you're home and it's raining. And you don't watch every
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 1: college football game like me on a Saturday. Or every
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 1: NFL game like me on a Sunday. And you want
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 1: something fun to watch. With really good music and the
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 1: Brooklyn vibe. I'm a Brooklyn kid myself. Then go to

• 1:41:55
  Speaker 1: Gravesend on Amazon Prime. It drops today. We'll take a
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 1: short break. When we get back, my dear friend of
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 1: 48 years, good buddy of Pete Morgan as well, his ranger,
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 1: his buddy, amazing defense attorney, the best in the world,
• 1:42:07
  Speaker 1: Joseph Takapina.
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 19: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 1: See, I have a lot of three-way text conversations. I
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 1: have five on one of them. Siggy Flicker and Michelle
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 1: Terrace and Stella Escobedo, Yehuda Kaploon, Laura Loomer. I've got
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 1: a three with Mark Levin and Sean Hannity. But this
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 1: three happens to be me, Joseph Takapina, and the man
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 1: sitting to my left, Pete Morgan. And although Joseph and
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 1: Peter are both very smart, they're brothers to me, brothers,
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 1: and they're both smartest guys I know. They're right there.
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 1: They're never really smart conversations. It's about the Rangers, you know.
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 1: And they're usually dumb. It's like, You know, what's the
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 1: kid's name again? He cost us a couple years ago
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 1: because the coach didn't play him. Rempe, that moronic conversation,
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 1: or Sir Sturgeon's the best goalie ever, even though he
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 1: hasn't won a damn thing in his career, and that
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 1: type of dumb stuff. And I guess the bad news
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 1: is that we're moments away from starting it up again,
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 1: aren't we, Pete?
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 1: You and Joseph, who are just a rabid range of fans,
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 1: which I love that about you guys, so am I,
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 1: but live in a world that just doesn't really exist.
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 9: Easily.
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 1: You want to fire the coach again this year, Mike Sullivan?
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: You want a couple cups with the Penguins, but you
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 1: want to just fire him too, like LaViolette and everybody else?
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 9: No.
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 1: All right. So when are you guys going to come
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 1: to the realization maybe it's the GM who's put together
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 1: bad teams? And even when they had good players during
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 1: the regular season, all those guys have proven to be non-champs.
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 1: I don't care if it's Kreider, Panara, any of them.
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 2: Joe has been on that since day one.
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 1: Yes, he has. He has been. He's right about that. Man,
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 1: is he right about that. So here he is, the
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 1: third part of our threesome, which sounds really gay, Joe Takapina.
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 16: Oh, my God. By the way, way to get my
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 16: blood pressure nice and high.
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not stupid. I know what I'm doing.
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 17: My God.
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 16: And no, Mike Sullivan is not the problem. Chris Drury,
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 16: like we just said, is the problem. We've been saying that.
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 16: I meet basically between periods in the Madison Club every
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 16: game and be like, Troy sucks.
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 17: We've got to get him out.
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 16: I mean, it's the same thing every– I mean, it's horrible.
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 16: And I don't know, Pete, if we did anything so
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 16: substantial this offseason to improve one of the worst teams
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 16: in the league from last year. And, you know, it
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 16: doesn't matter because I'm still going to be there every
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 16: game that I can be at and still root like
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 16: crazy for them because I love them. That's what you do.
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 16: That's what loyalty is. But, Jesus, I don't know. We
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 16: could be back in the same– same boat.
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 1: Again well listen loyal you're right i still root for
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 1: the rangers and i still love them but um loyalty
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 1: doesn't include spending a couple of hundred thousand dollars on
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 1: good tickets to watch a lousy hockey team that's not
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 1: loyal that's dumb no.
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 16: It's you know look if you have the wherewithal to
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 16: do something like that.
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 1: Well yeah if you've got it that's true and if.
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 16: You and you love it like i there's nothing i
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 16: really i mean there's a lot of great things in
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 16: new york city except the mayor and and and You know,
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 16: me going to a Ranger game is one of the most.
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 1: Enjoyable things in my life.
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 16: Well, you're a hockey guy.
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: You're a hockey guy. For folks that don't know about Joseph,
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 1: Joseph went to Skidmore College, which is a really good school,
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 1: and he played hockey, and he was really good. We
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 1: joke about this, but to this day, he owns a
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 1: record that will never be broken, like Cal Ripken's record.
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 1: He owns the most penalty minutes in one season in
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 1: college hockey history, and now that they've outlawed fighting in
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 1: college hockey... Joseph Takapina will own that record. But on
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 1: a serious note, we were little kids going to Poly. And,
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 1: you know, his dad would take him, Joseph, to Abe Stark.
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 1: And he'd skate in Coney Island. Like, you're a real
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 1: hockey guy. So your love for the Rangers, to me,
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 1: I find it great because that's who you are. You're
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 1: a hockey guy.
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 16: Yeah, it's my sport. I mean, look, I love baseball.
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 16: I love football. But hockey is my sport. It's the
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 16: one I love the most. I love playing. I mean,
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 16: I played since I was four years old and played
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 16: in college and had a cup of coffee after with
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 16: some semi-pro things.
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, you did?
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 1: I didn't even know that.
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 16: Yes, sir.
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 1: Do you still play now at all?
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 16: You know, I played up until a few years ago
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 16: when the schedule just became just overwhelming. And it just
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 16: became to the point where hockey is not softball. It's
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 16: not one of those sports, if you play ice hockey,
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 16: I'm talking about, where you could just go out there
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 16: once every couple months and just get into a game
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 16: or once every three weeks. You need to be in
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 16: skating condition. Skating condition, even in a men's league, is
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 16: very different than any other type of condition. It is, right?
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 1: It just is. Well, just so you know. Just so
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 16: I can't play like, you know.
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 1: But another popular talk show host in this city, who
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 1: happens to go up against me every morning, he actually
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 1: plays a little bit, too, I guess. He's a big
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 1: Ranger fan. Boomer Esiason, he called you a pussy, just
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 1: so you know.
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 16: Who called me a pussy? I don't know who called
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 16: who a pussy.
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 1: Boomer Esiason called you a pussy because you don't play anymore.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 17: Really? No.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 16: Well, if Boomer wants to invite me to one of
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 16: his little men's league games, I'll get in shape in
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 16: one second. And maybe we'll get into a scuffle by accident.
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Nah, I'm only kidding. Now, Boomer loves you.
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 1: Boomer's a good guy.
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 16: I was going to say.
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 1: Boomer loves me.
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 16: He invited me to his charity baseball thing.
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 1: Nah, he's a good guy. Boomer's a good guy. I mean,
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 1: I'm a Carton guy first before Boomer, but Boomer's a
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 1: good guy. I like Carton, too.
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 16: It was the Boomer and Carton thing, and there was
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 16: that charity softball game, or baseball, not softball.
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 1: Oh, I heard all about it. You pitched that day.
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 1: It's urban legend. I know.
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 17: I know.
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 16: Exactly.
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 16: John Franco was like, damn, bro.
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 1: Carton still talks about you pitching to this day. So
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 1: we'll get ready for the Rangers. I'm looking across the
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 1: glass at my guy Lou, my brother Lou Rapinoe. He's
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 1: a big Islander fan, so he can't wait. And they
• 1:47:48
  Speaker 1: suck too. And I like John Ledecky. He's a terrific guy,
• 1:47:50
  Speaker 1: but they're not going anywhere either. But look, let's move
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 1: away from this for one second. I want to talk
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 1: to you about what I saw yesterday. I was invited.
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 1: Hold on.
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 16: Hold on. Before what you saw yesterday, unless you're going
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 16: to tell me about your first row seat, which is insane.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 1: Insane.
• 1:48:04
  Speaker 16: You sat first row?
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 1: I did. Well, up in the gallery because you can't
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 1: sit downstairs.
• 1:48:09
  Speaker 16: Of course. Right. But you're sitting front row in the gallery.
• 1:48:13
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 16: That's as VIP as you get. I mean, you should
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 16: really consider replacing him as prime minister.
• 1:48:19
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 16: After you fix New York City, we'll get a mayor here.
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 1: Right, right, right. This week, I've already been asked to
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 1: run for mayor, president, and prime minister now. But what
• 1:48:29
  Speaker 1: I saw was, I was outside for about 40 minutes,
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 1: and clearly you heard the whole conversation because you just
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 1: repeated some of it. And I got into a war
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 1: of words a couple of times. The cops had to
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 1: calm me down with these filthy, stinking, lying, low-life, pro-Palestinian,
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 1: Susan Sarandon, fat, stupid morons who just lie every day
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 1: about what Israel is doing. They just lie and they
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 1: just don't care because it seems to be the chic
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 1: thing to do when they bottle these podcasters. There's no data.
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 1: There's no proof. There's nobody with a half a brain
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 1: who's out there that can actually say, hey, you know
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 1: what Mamdani is saying is right. You know, Israelis are
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 1: just killing innocent Palestinians. That doesn't exist. Doesn't matter. So
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 1: they arrest a whole bunch of these morons yesterday. But
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 1: there's nothing there to keep them. I mean, this is
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 1: going to be you go there, you get the right job,
• 1:49:16
  Speaker 1: you go right home, basically.
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 16: I mean, that's what it is. It's a DAT or
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 16: it's a quick boom and you're gone. Look, here's the
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 16: thing about that. Everyone has a right to protest. It
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 16: doesn't matter who protests, anyone they want. What you don't
• 1:49:31
  Speaker 16: have a right to do is commandeer First Avenue, expect
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 16: the police to treat your celebrity, especially this woman. has
• 1:49:37
  Speaker 16: been celebrities, or elected officials as a hall pass. So
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 16: the same rule applies for everyone. Protect free speech, keep
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 16: the streets open, enforce the law evenly. So an arrest
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 16: at a sit-in is not proof that someone... I'm reading
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 16: articles now, oh, they were arrested for their opinion. What,
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 16: you moron. They were not arrested for their opinion. That's
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 16: not what they're... They're arrested for violating the laws of
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 16: the state.
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 1: And listen to me for a second. Listen to me.
• 1:50:05
  Speaker 1: They don't listen. I was out there for 45 minutes.
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 1: The cops would say, just stand there. You can do
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 1: whatever you want. You can hold your sign calling BB.
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 1: They don't listen.
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 17: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 16: And, you know, free speech turns into some martyrdom story,
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 16: and it should never. Look, your First Amendment rights don't
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 16: come with a deed to First Avenue, you idiots.
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 17: Okay?
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 16: So do stand aside. Let traffic flow. We have enough
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 16: stuff of this crazy U.N. I hate the U.N. week
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 16: in New York. I hate the U.N. week in New York.
• 1:50:33
  Speaker 16: It took me an hour to get from my office
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 16: to the West Side Highway. I'm on Madison Avenue.
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 17: I know.
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 16: And that's just insanity.
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 17: I know.
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 16: It's just insanity.
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 1: It's horrible.
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 16: I'm with you.
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 1: No, they don't need it. It's nonsense.
• 1:50:43
  Speaker 16: And it's useless.
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 1: It is useless. And Trump was great Tuesday, and Bibi
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 1: was great Thursday, but I could do without that, too.
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 1: So then tell me about talking about Trump, this, you know,
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 1: he's kicking out CNN and MS Now and Politico. Now, look,
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 1: he's right. 92% of the stories that those networks air.
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 1: are negative about the president. I don't care how much
• 1:51:07
  Speaker 1: you dislike the president. If you really believe that 92%
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 1: of his work is bad, you're a moron, okay? You
• 1:51:13
  Speaker 1: just are. So clearly, there's a bias, a prejudice from
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 1: these networks. We know it is. It's existed forever. But, but, but,
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: talking about the First Amendment. You know, President Trump can't
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 1: just throw them out. But also, I was told, that
• 1:51:28
  Speaker 1: they also don't have this entitlement, this right to be
• 1:51:33
  Speaker 1: inside some of these spaces in the White House. So
• 1:51:36
  Speaker 1: now the judge comes back and goes, no, you can't
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 1: do it. And I know yesterday was a big meeting
• 1:51:41
  Speaker 1: with the China president. I don't know who showed up
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 1: and who didn't. In the end, I think Trump loses this,
• 1:51:46
  Speaker 1: even though I think he's right. What do you think?
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 16: No, you're right, Sid. Look, this is not the one. Look,
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 16: you fight a bad story with facts. you know, access
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 16: and tough questions. You don't give the press a layup
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 16: easy victory. I think this was a mistake, I really do,
• 1:52:01
  Speaker 16: because this was an easy victory, okay? And, you know,
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 16: we even got Fox News even sort of joined in
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 16: on the condemnation of that conduct, right, when they pulled
• 1:52:12
  Speaker 16: the pool cameras. So I just think, look, I have
• 1:52:15
  Speaker 16: funny criticism for those outlets. I really do. They're unfair,
• 1:52:19
  Speaker 16: and they're so biased. It's obvious, right? And Trump can
• 1:52:23
  Speaker 16: call out their coverage every day of the week, but
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 16: when the government takes away press passes because it dislikes coverage,
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 16: it really hands critics a very strong First Amendment case
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 16: and First Amendment victory. So as I said, you have
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 16: a right. He has a right to say what he
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 16: wants to say about them. He has a right to
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 16: fight their coverage. But government credentials cannot be seen as
• 1:52:48
  Speaker 16: a reward for favorable coverage, and that's what this story
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 16: is turning into, and that's not a good thing.
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 1: Thomas Kniff, who's a great attorney, who you guys are
• 1:52:55
  Speaker 1: very good friends. He did an amazing job with Daniel Penny.
• 1:52:59
  Speaker 1: Did you know that Thomas Kniff is a dirty Islander fan?
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 1: What I mean, like a real rabid Islander fan. Like,
• 1:53:06
  Speaker 1: he sent me a text that he was with Cash
• 1:53:09
  Speaker 1: Patel at the FBI yesterday. I know they had a
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 1: big meeting there. Todd Blanch, my friend Jen Harrison was there, too.
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 1: And he said that Cash Patel said, do me a favor.
• 1:53:19
  Speaker 1: Tell Sid at some point tomorrow that to scream, let's
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 1: go Islanders.
• 1:53:25
  Speaker 16: Cash Fattel said scream, let's go Islanders?
• 1:53:27
  Speaker 1: Now, this is Tom Kniff saying this. You like Tom, right?
• 1:53:31
  Speaker 1: He's a big-time attorney, Daniel Penny. Come on.
• 1:53:33
  Speaker 16: No, I did like Tom.
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 1: You did? Wait, is that a past comment?
• 1:53:37
  Speaker 15: Oh, yeah.
• 1:53:37
  Speaker 16: He's an Islander fan. I do not like Islander fans.
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 16: First of all, you know, they're the most fickle fans
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 16: in the world. You go out to that place sometimes,
• 1:53:43
  Speaker 16: there's like 12 people in that arena when they suck,
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 16: which is most of the time. It is the most
• 1:53:47
  Speaker 16: beautiful arena, except for the garden. It is really, like,
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 16: the most stunning thing. But, you know, I'm never going
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 16: to be a real Islander fan. Islander fans, if they
• 1:53:53
  Speaker 16: make the playoffs, then all of a sudden everyone on
• 1:53:55
  Speaker 16: Long Island is an Islander fan. Yeah. I miss the
• 1:53:57
  Speaker 16: Bagel Barn. I really do.
• 1:53:59
  Speaker 1: The Bagel Barn.
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 17: I do.
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was great. You know, it's a great place.
• 1:54:04
  Speaker 1: It sits, you know, it's still there. It just sits there,
• 1:54:06
  Speaker 1: and they have, like, these... silly fashion shows. And, you know,
• 1:54:09
  Speaker 1: it's funny, you know, I made a comment a little
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 1: while ago and I was being half serious of being,
• 1:54:13
  Speaker 1: I was half kidding too. And I was touting myself
• 1:54:16
  Speaker 1: as the best radio talent in the world. I, what
• 1:54:18
  Speaker 1: do you do believe that? And I do another radio host, uh,
• 1:54:21
  Speaker 1: take it. I'll say that's just it being said. He
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 1: is great. And other radio hosts actually get angry. But
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 1: what I've noticed talking about Tom Kniff and I dollar
• 1:54:29
  Speaker 1: and you and all you guys is there is kind
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 1: of this sibling rivalry. Like I just mentioned, In your
• 1:54:36
  Speaker 1: profession as well, like all of you think, and I
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 1: have already dubbed you this so you win, but all
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 1: of you think you're the best attorney on the planet,
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 1: don't you?
• 1:54:44
  Speaker 16: You know, probably yes. And you have to. Doing what
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 16: we do, swimming upstream every day, you have to think
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 16: you're the best. You really do. Because if you start...
• 1:54:53
  Speaker 16: lacking confidence in your own abilities, you're not going to
• 1:54:55
  Speaker 16: serve the client well. As far as an objective review,
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 16: all I say is look at the numbers. Just look
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 16: at the numbers. You know, that's all you have to do.
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 16: That's the Hall of Fame argument. Look at the numbers.
• 1:55:05
  Speaker 16: Look at Sandy Koufax's numbers and compare them to Ed Whitson,
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 16: for example.
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 1: Ed Whitson. But New York, it's kind of stacked here. Like,
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 1: Jose Baez down in Miami, like, that's an easy win, right?
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 1: But here you've got you. You've got Artie. You've got Dershowitz.
• 1:55:20
  Speaker 1: He's coming up next. I love him, too. You've got Kniff.
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 1: You've got a lot of big-time attorneys up here in
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 1: New York. It's a little more so. Like radio, the competition,
• 1:55:29
  Speaker 1: like everything else, is much stiffer up.
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 17: Here, yes? Oh, yeah.
• 1:55:33
  Speaker 16: Well, I don't even know what the competition is in
• 1:55:35
  Speaker 16: New York City. So many things. There's plenty of clients
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 16: to beat going around. So it's not an issue. I
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 16: don't see it as a competition. When Arthur does well,
• 1:55:45
  Speaker 16: I'm happy that Arthur does well. First of all, he's
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 16: the godfather of my kids, and he's a friend since
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 16: high school.
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 1: No, you love Arthur, but you have said in the
• 1:55:52
  Speaker 1: past that most of Arthur's clients, and don't worry, he's
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 1: in Cambodia right now. He's not listening. Most of Arthur,
• 1:55:58
  Speaker 1: I swear to God, he went on a trip with
• 1:56:00
  Speaker 1: some of the Bali guys, like Cambodia, Thailand. Most of
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 1: Arthur's clients are his because you said no initially. He's
• 1:56:07
  Speaker 1: not correct.
• 1:56:08
  Speaker 16: I never said that.
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 1: You said that a couple of times.
• 1:56:11
  Speaker 16: I said that. I never said that.
• 1:56:13
  Speaker 17: Oh, no.
• 1:56:13
  Speaker 1: Wait a second. Who did Harvey Weinstein call first?
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 17: Me.
• 1:56:18
  Speaker 1: Okay. Who did Ghislaine Maxwell call first?
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 16: Well, she reached out to me, yes, but I didn't
• 1:56:22
  Speaker 16: want to take that case.
• 1:56:23
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 1:56:23
  Speaker 1: I'm just telling you that sounds to me like they
• 1:56:25
  Speaker 1: called you first.
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 16: But I didn't say that. It was put that way.
• 1:56:28
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Pete Morgan said it.
• 1:56:31
  Speaker 16: Well, Pete could say it because Pete's a truth teller.
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 16: But here's the thing. It's just the win-loss record. It's
• 1:56:37
  Speaker 16: the fact that's all you need to look at, brother.
• 1:56:39
  Speaker 16: And there's nothing more I have to say.
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 1: No, you do win all the time. You've gotten people
• 1:56:45
  Speaker 1: locked out, and you knew they were guilty. I mean,
• 1:56:47
  Speaker 1: you've got to go home and laugh. I mean, you
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 1: knew they were guilty. I mean, they should have gotten
• 1:56:51
  Speaker 1: a death penalty. No, I didn't do anything all that bad, but,
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, literally. All right, so now what do you
• 1:56:56
  Speaker 1: do this weekend, Joseph? What's on the Takapina schedule?
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 16: I'm heading down to Southcom in Doral, Florida, for the Army.
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 16: I have some meetings there. Yeah, yeah, and then I'm
• 1:57:06
  Speaker 16: heading tomorrow night. I'm going to take one of the generals,
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 16: I think, to– The Hurricanes game.
• 1:57:12
  Speaker 1: Is he going to Michigan? Oh, they're home for Central Michigan, right?
• 1:57:15
  Speaker 16: Yeah, they're home for Central Michigan.
• 1:57:16
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:57:16
  Speaker 16: So, I mean, it's whatever.
• 1:57:19
  Speaker 1: So, you're actually taking a general from the Army to
• 1:57:21
  Speaker 1: that game tomorrow night?
• 1:57:22
  Speaker 16: Who's like a brother to me.
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 1: That's awesome.
• 1:57:24
  Speaker 16: Absolutely.
• 1:57:25
  Speaker 1: That is awesome.
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 17: Yeah.
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 1: I'm still waiting for this kid, Mensah, to throw an
• 1:57:29
  Speaker 1: incomplete pass. He's been.
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 16: He has three more sets of touchdowns. Three more touchdowns.
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 17: No, no.
• 1:57:35
  Speaker 16: Three times more touchdowns than he does.
• 1:57:36
  Speaker 1: Right, than incomplete passes. I mean, right now, he's winning
• 1:57:38
  Speaker 1: the Heisman race by 80 miles.
• 1:57:41
  Speaker 16: Him and Malachi Toney also, he's the reason. I think
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 16: he's doing that. But Malachi Toney's a different type of talent.
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 16: If we could ever get him on Art, you're Giants,
• 1:57:50
  Speaker 16: my Raiders, whatever, we could ever get him.
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 17: He'd be great.
• 1:57:53
  Speaker 1: Game changer. No, but he's also got the kid Fletcher.
• 1:57:56
  Speaker 1: He runs the ball well. I know the Brown injury
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 1: hurts him at running back, but he's got other pieces.
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 16: Josh Moore's out now for the year also. The number
• 1:58:04
  Speaker 16: two receiver who's a five-star kid. We're missing our two
• 1:58:07
  Speaker 16: starting quarterbacks pretty much the whole season after game one,
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 16: by the way. But Mario Cristobal's a machine. He has
• 1:58:13
  Speaker 16: locked and loaded refills, and he's ready to go. I mean,
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 16: we have to win by 75 points this weekend. No,
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 16: and I feel bad for Central Michigan, but that's what
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 16: we have to do because we won at Wake Forest
• 1:58:25
  Speaker 16: last week. Wake Forest was a nine-win team. We went
• 1:58:29
  Speaker 16: at Wake Forest by 13 points away at Wake Forest.
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 16: They're a good team, by the way. They're going to
• 1:58:34
  Speaker 16: do some damage to people.
• 1:58:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, nice quarterback. Gio Lopez is pretty good.
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 17: Nice quarterback.
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 16: And that receiver, Hernandez.
• 1:58:39
  Speaker 1: Very good. Hernandez is great. Yep.
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 16: So look at this. We went away, an ACC battle,
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 16: away from a nine-win team that was 2-0 going into
• 1:58:47
  Speaker 16: the game. We actually dropped in the rankings by one.
• 1:58:51
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 1:58:51
  Speaker 16: Notre Dame, on the other hand, basically at home, you know,
• 1:58:56
  Speaker 16: beats Michigan State, a one-on-one team by the same score.
• 1:59:01
  Speaker 16: And they stay where they are.
• 1:59:03
  Speaker 1: There's a bias.
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 16: There's a Miami bias.
• 1:59:05
  Speaker 1: No, there's Miami bias. There's no question. But, but, but,
• 1:59:08
  Speaker 1: you know, you beat Florida A & M by 72
• 1:59:10
  Speaker 1: weeks ago. You're favored by 40 tomorrow. We are, I
• 1:59:13
  Speaker 1: should say. I went to that school.
• 1:59:14
  Speaker 17: I did.
• 1:59:15
  Speaker 1: Let's go out there and beat them by 45 or 50.
• 1:59:17
  Speaker 1: Why not?
• 1:59:18
  Speaker 16: We have to. We have to. We just have to
• 1:59:19
  Speaker 16: keep plowing it on. And Mario Stile, he likes to
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 16: basically put the third stringers in the high school kids
• 1:59:25
  Speaker 16: and just run the ball. But we get punished for that.
• 1:59:27
  Speaker 16: And I go, okay, sorry, Central Michigan. Now you're going
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 16: to get embarrassed.
• 1:59:32
  Speaker 1: I love it. Listen, it sounds like a great weekend,
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 1: and as always, you're a lot of fun on this show.
• 1:59:36
  Speaker 1: You're brilliant. We discuss serious topics, but you're fun, too,
• 1:59:39
  Speaker 1: and I love you so much. And so does Pete.
• 1:59:40
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Joe.
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 16: See you next week, brother.
• 1:59:43
  Speaker 2: See you Thursday night.
• 1:59:44
  Speaker 1: All right. Is that the home opener? Yes, sir. So Tuesday,
• 1:59:47
  Speaker 1: they're in Boston. Who's home Thursday?
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 2: Tampa, right?
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 1: Tampa? Maybe I'll go, too. I'll call you later, okay, Joe?
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 16: Okay, brother.
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 1: All right, baby. Up on Joe Tacopino right there. The
• 1:59:57
  Speaker 1: best defense attorney and the greatest friend. 48 years on
• 2:00:00
  Speaker 1: buddies with that guy. And the three of us, me, Joseph,
• 2:00:03
  Speaker 1: and Pete, have a good time together throughout the whole
• 2:00:05
  Speaker 1: hockey season.
• 2:00:07
  Speaker 19: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 2:00:10
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 2:00:12
  Speaker 1: But they're talking about Hasan Piker. And yesterday, I played
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 1: for you on this show, about a three-minute piece. Hasan Piker...
• 2:00:23
  Speaker 1: Earlier this week, I believe Tuesday, actually did his whole
• 2:00:28
  Speaker 1: Twitch podcast on me. Yeah. You heard that, right?
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 16: Yeah.
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 1: He was rough on me. And his friend, another anti-Semite twat,
• 2:00:39
  Speaker 1: Anna Kasparian, who does her show sometimes with Ahsan Piker's uncle,
• 2:00:45
  Speaker 1: Senk Igar. She also did her show on me this week.
• 2:00:49
  Speaker 17: Yep.
• 2:00:49
  Speaker 1: You heard that too, right?
• 2:00:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 2:00:51
  Speaker 1: They're all obsessed with me.
• 2:00:53
  Speaker 20: Ugh, her voice, man.
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 1: Well, you know more about her than I do. I
• 2:00:56
  Speaker 1: don't know much about her.
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 21: I just used to come up on feeds, and all
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 21: of a sudden, it doesn't even start slow. It just
• 2:01:02
  Speaker 21: starts like, I don't even want to hear what you
• 2:01:05
  Speaker 21: have to say.
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 17: I don't want to hear.
• 2:01:07
  Speaker 1: No, no, no.
• 2:01:08
  Speaker 23: You're not going to sit here and filibuster while I'm on.
• 2:01:12
  Speaker 12: You're not going to talk.
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 1: You're not going to talk.
• 2:01:15
  Speaker 21: And the mild-mannered person is there just staring and holds
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 21: his head.
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 1: No, no, no.
• 2:01:21
  Speaker 23: You're not going to sit there while I'm here and
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 23: filibuster your lives.
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 1: You're right. That's hard. She referred to me. She said,
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 1: all I hear is Rosenberg call Mom Donnie a terrorist.
• 2:01:32
  Speaker 1: You know who the terrorist is? You, Sid. I said, okay.
• 2:01:36
  Speaker 1: If that makes me a terrorist, if calling out a
• 2:01:39
  Speaker 1: terrorist makes me a terrorist, then I'm a terrorist.
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 21: As Bob Costas used to say to Russo, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris,
• 2:01:49
  Speaker 21: while he was yelling.
• 2:01:50
  Speaker 20: Well, Russo, you could yell all you want. It's no
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 20: substitute for reason.
• 2:01:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, I would hate that if Casas did that to me. Yeah, well, he...
• 2:01:57
  Speaker 1: Bernie did that to me a couple of times. That's
• 2:01:59
  Speaker 1: how he would hit.
• 2:02:00
  Speaker 17: Yeah, yeah.
• 2:02:01
  Speaker 20: You want to hear Chris Russo stop right in his track?
• 2:02:04
  Speaker 1: Did he stop when he did that?
• 2:02:05
  Speaker 20: Yeah, he stopped like... Okay.
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 2:02:09
  Speaker 17: All right.
• 2:02:09
  Speaker 20: All right.
• 2:02:10
  Speaker 17: All right.
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 20: All right. Mike, I'll go back to Mike then.
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 1: And see what he says. I miss dog actions. Get
• 2:02:15
  Speaker 1: him on next week. Oh, what is his name, this kid? Justin. Sorry.
• 2:02:21
  Speaker 17: What a week. What?
• 2:02:22
  Speaker 1: It's been a long.
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 17: Week, bro.
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 1: What happens? What do you want? I think I've got...
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 1: I hate to joke about this. That's a huge problem.
• 2:02:27
  Speaker 1: I think I've got some dementia setting in. You can't
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 1: be forgetting my name, bro. I did. Just for one second, though.
• 2:02:32
  Speaker 1: Can we book Christopher Mad Dog Russo for next week?
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 16: I can try.
• 2:02:35
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 2:02:36
  Speaker 20: I saw him in a sling a couple of days ago,
• 2:02:39
  Speaker 20: his right arm.
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 1: He hurt himself?
• 2:02:41
  Speaker 20: I don't know the details.
• 2:02:43
  Speaker 1: I'll text him. I'll find out. I think he had surgery.
• 2:02:45
  Speaker 2: He had surgery.
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 1: I think it was more than a couple weeks. Oh,
• 2:02:47
  Speaker 1: he probably has a tennis elbow or something. He plays
• 2:02:49
  Speaker 1: tennis every day. I don't know.
• 2:02:50
  Speaker 2: He was tough and a hamster too much.
• 2:02:52
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
• 2:02:54
  Speaker 9: Wow.
• 2:02:55
  Speaker 17: During one of.
• 2:02:55
  Speaker 20: Those big ESPN segments called Patience or Panic.
• 2:02:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Him and Stephen A.
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 21: Yeah, it was, I think, or who was it the other?
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 21: It was like on, not first take, but.
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 1: Psychos.
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 20: It's called patience or panic.
• 2:03:11
  Speaker 1: Psychos.
• 2:03:11
  Speaker 21: The Steelers offense. So they talk for a half hour
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 21: about should you be patient or panic. It's unbelievable how
• 2:03:21
  Speaker 21: sports can just.
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 2: It can take anything.
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 1: It goes... By the way, with the Steelers offense, the
• 2:03:26
  Speaker 1: answer to that is panic. Aaron Rodgers, that's over. He
• 2:03:30
  Speaker 1: should go back to sitting on podcasts and... calling people
• 2:03:34
  Speaker 1: like me Israel first. He's become very good at that.
• 2:03:37
  Speaker 1: I can't stand Aaron Rodgers. I liked him when he
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 1: was anti-vaccine. Okay, cool, great. But now he's Tucker Carlson.
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 1: So I hope he gets sacked every play when he
• 2:03:46
  Speaker 1: plays for the Steelers. I root against him. I was
• 2:03:48
  Speaker 1: so happy to see the Steelers get their asses kicked
• 2:03:51
  Speaker 1: by the Patriots last week. So Aaron Rodgers, who now
• 2:03:54
  Speaker 1: hates Trump and Israel and people like me, says Israel first.
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 1: I hope he loses every game. I really do. The
• 2:04:01
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers who beat Ben Waltersberger. I was there in
• 2:04:05
  Speaker 1: a freezing cold Dallas, Texas many years ago. That guy's gone.
• 2:04:10
  Speaker 1: He's gone. Now you got just some loud mouth, almost
• 2:04:15
  Speaker 1: anti-Semitic jerk off. All right, let me take a break.
• 2:04:18
  Speaker 23: No, no, no, I'm not going to let you talk
• 2:04:20
  Speaker 23: about Aaron Rodgers on this time of mine.
• 2:04:24
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to let you do that.
• 2:04:25
  Speaker 20: No, so you can try, but you're.
• 2:04:27
  Speaker 1: Not going to do that. When I get back, we'll
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 1: talk to the legend. They don't come bigger and better.
• 2:04:32
  Speaker 1: Amazing attorney, but even a better human being. I had
• 2:04:35
  Speaker 1: the honor of sitting next to him watching BB speak yesterday.
• 2:04:39
  Speaker 1: Alan Dershowitz.
• 2:04:41
  Speaker 19: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 2:04:45
  Speaker 19: Podcast Network.
• 2:04:47
  Speaker 1: You can call me a pedophile as much as you want.
• 2:04:49
  Speaker 1: You know, I put a picture up of me and
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 1: Dershowitz on Twitter. And almost every comment, this is how
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 1: sad the world has become. Almost every comment is, oh,
• 2:04:59
  Speaker 1: look at the two pedophiles. That's it. That's it. Maybe
• 2:05:03
  Speaker 1: a couple smattered and said, yeah, wasn't B.B.
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 17: Great?
• 2:05:07
  Speaker 1: Otherwise, a bunch of anti-Semite losers. Real low lives, like
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 1: the people I saw across the street on 2nd Avenue yesterday.
• 2:05:15
  Speaker 1: But baby, BB, I should say, baby BB, was unbelievable.
• 2:05:20
  Speaker 1: And if you don't believe me, because I'm funny with BB,
• 2:05:23
  Speaker 1: my next guest, the guy that you're making fun of
• 2:05:26
  Speaker 1: with me on Twitter, is much closer with BB than
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 1: even I am. And I'm proud to call this guy
• 2:05:31
  Speaker 1: a friend, an amazing attorney, but an even better human being,
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 1: my dear friend, Alan Dershowitz. Good morning, Alan. How are you?
• 2:05:39
  Speaker 9: Well, that was great yesterday. Two tough Jews sitting in
• 2:05:42
  Speaker 9: the front row cheering for Bibi Netanyahu while these cowards
• 2:05:46
  Speaker 9: walked out. These bigots walked out. They can't stand hearing
• 2:05:51
  Speaker 9: the truth from Jews. And so they have to leave.
• 2:05:54
  Speaker 9: And the people, Sarah, you know, what's her name? Susan Sarandon.
• 2:05:58
  Speaker 9: Total ignoramus leading the charge of other ignoramuses on Second Avenue. But,
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 9: you know, we're on the right. We're the right people.
• 2:06:08
  Speaker 9: And yesterday was remarkable for me. First time in my
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 9: life I heard Bibi Netanyahu speak.
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 17: As a Republican.
• 2:06:14
  Speaker 9: Up until now, from 1970 until yesterday, every time I
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 9: heard Bibi speak, I was listening to him as a Democrat. Yesterday,
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 9: I was listening to him as a Republican, and I
• 2:06:27
  Speaker 9: was so proud when he talked about the close relationship
• 2:06:31
  Speaker 9: between the current administration and Israel. So, as you know,
• 2:06:36
  Speaker 9: I've written this book called Why I Quit the Dems
• 2:06:39
  Speaker 9: and So Should You. And yesterday, I was there as
• 2:06:43
  Speaker 9: somebody who had quit the Dems and so should you.
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 1: And we're lucky to have you on our team, I
• 2:06:47
  Speaker 1: tell you that. We are so lucky. But he hit
• 2:06:50
  Speaker 1: so many good points yesterday. Like you just said, I'm
• 2:06:53
  Speaker 1: glad he did it too, that he professed his love
• 2:06:55
  Speaker 1: for President Trump, the administration. He talked about Iran, what
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 1: a danger they are to the world. He talked about
• 2:07:02
  Speaker 1: the lies, and it's complete lies. Again, I've asked so
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 1: many people over the last couple of months, show me
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 1: the data. Where are you getting information from that we're
• 2:07:11
  Speaker 1: killing people at this unbelievable rate? Because I know it's
• 2:07:14
  Speaker 1: the complete opposite. So he talked about the genocide, lies,
• 2:07:17
  Speaker 1: and all that as well. And then my favorite part
• 2:07:20
  Speaker 1: was he spent a lot of time, as he should have,
• 2:07:22
  Speaker 1: because he has been the victim. Listen, New York media.
• 2:07:26
  Speaker 1: He has been the victim of many unprovoked attacks. He
• 2:07:31
  Speaker 1: went hard after Mayor Mamdani died. I love that part, Alan.
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 1: Loved it.
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 17: You're right.
• 2:07:36
  Speaker 9: I mean, and also he cited data. He cited John Spencer,
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 9: who is the head of the West Point, you know,
• 2:07:45
  Speaker 9: anti-terrorist unit. He's the world's leading expert on terrorism. And
• 2:07:49
  Speaker 9: he said quite unequivocally, no country in history has done
• 2:07:53
  Speaker 9: more to protect civilians than Israel during this war. And
• 2:07:57
  Speaker 9: when the most blatant lie is proposed, you don't look
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 9: at the lie. You look at the liars. You look
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 9: at why are they lying? Why is Mamdani such a bigot,
• 2:08:09
  Speaker 9: such a liar, such a perjurer? And there's only one answer.
• 2:08:16
  Speaker 9: He doesn't like Jews. He was brought up in a
• 2:08:19
  Speaker 9: family that didn't like Jews. He lived in contexts in
• 2:08:23
  Speaker 9: which Jews were demonized. And it's not surprising that he
• 2:08:28
  Speaker 9: would blame everything. on the Jews and talk about genocide.
• 2:08:32
  Speaker 9: Oh my God, there's never been a situation the opposite
• 2:08:35
  Speaker 9: of genocide like there is in Israel. Israel feeds its enemies,
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 9: inoculates its enemies, warns its enemies, and then they're accused
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 9: of genocide by a group of people who murdered, raped,
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 9: beheaded innocent people of every background. This kind of transformation,
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 9: everything black is white, everything white is black, Bibi pointed
• 2:08:57
  Speaker 9: that out better than anybody could have. And I was
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 9: so proud to be in the audience for what, maybe
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 9: the 20th time listening to him speak. And I'm hoping
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 9: that I'll be in more audiences with him and other
• 2:09:09
  Speaker 9: Israeli leaders as they speak truth to power.
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 1: You will be. And I'll be sitting right next to
• 2:09:15
  Speaker 1: you like I did yesterday. And then, you know, Alan.
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 9: It was such an honor.
• 2:09:18
  Speaker 1: No, thank you for saying that. It was actually surreal
• 2:09:20
  Speaker 1: for me to have Alan Dershowitz tell me that was
• 2:09:22
  Speaker 1: an honor. Much bigger honor for me, trust me. But
• 2:09:25
  Speaker 1: you and I were there earlier, and we had to wait,
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 1: of course, on 46th and 2nd for the ambassador to
• 2:09:30
  Speaker 1: come out to take us. to the UN, so we
• 2:09:32
  Speaker 1: were directly across the street from these pro-Palestinians. There were
• 2:09:36
  Speaker 1: really two big rallies, one on First Avenue.
• 2:09:38
  Speaker 9: They're not pro-Palestinian, they're anti-Semitic. They don't care about the Palestinians.
• 2:09:44
  Speaker 9: If they cared about the Palestinians, they would be the
• 2:09:47
  Speaker 9: enemies of Hamas. They would be trying to destroy Hamas
• 2:09:51
  Speaker 9: so that the Palestinians can live decent lives in Gaza.
• 2:09:54
  Speaker 9: They are the most anti-Palestinian group around. The pro-Palestinian group
• 2:09:59
  Speaker 9: are the Jews who were trying to make peace and
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 9: trying to resolve this issue in a way that maybe
• 2:10:06
  Speaker 9: allows innocent civilians among the Palestinians to live in peace.
• 2:10:11
  Speaker 9: But these idiots who were protesting, the last thing they
• 2:10:14
  Speaker 9: want is peace for the Palestinians. Not a single one
• 2:10:16
  Speaker 9: of them calls for a two-state solution. Not a single
• 2:10:19
  Speaker 9: one of them would recognize Israel as the nation-state of
• 2:10:22
  Speaker 9: the Jewish people.
• 2:10:23
  Speaker 17: None of them.
• 2:10:24
  Speaker 9: They all want to see the end of Israel. That's
• 2:10:27
  Speaker 9: the difference between Palestinianism and Zionism. Zionism built the state.
• 2:10:31
  Speaker 9: Palestinianism's goal is to destroy a state.
• 2:10:34
  Speaker 1: So how am I supposed to feel about this upcoming
• 2:10:37
  Speaker 1: election with, again, he's your friend a lot longer than mine.
• 2:10:40
  Speaker 1: He really does love you. Bibi, I can't imagine. Willie,
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 1: I can't. At this important time, just about three years
• 2:10:47
  Speaker 1: removed from that horrible October 7th day, I can't imagine
• 2:10:51
  Speaker 1: somebody else in that role, but I may have to
• 2:10:53
  Speaker 1: start thinking about it. How am I supposed to feel
• 2:10:56
  Speaker 1: about this upcoming election, Alan?
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 9: Well, I think the election is not going to bring
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 9: about a new government. I suspect that the goal of
• 2:11:02
  Speaker 9: the Netanyahu party is to avoid any other party getting
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 9: enough votes to control the Knesset so that then Bibi
• 2:11:14
  Speaker 9: serves as acting prime minister until there's the next election.
• 2:11:17
  Speaker 9: That's what I think the goal is. I think the
• 2:11:20
  Speaker 9: polls don't suggest that Bibi can win an outright victory,
• 2:11:24
  Speaker 9: but who knows? Look, there's one other thing I wanted
• 2:11:27
  Speaker 9: to talk about today because America, our beloved country, is
• 2:11:31
  Speaker 9: in great danger. There is a case pending now that
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 9: is so important. They're going after two women who are
• 2:11:40
  Speaker 9: religiously and ideologically dissidents. and they're putting them in jail
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 9: for their ideas. And this could easily be used as
• 2:11:50
  Speaker 9: a precedent against other minority groups like Mormons and Catholics. Remember,
• 2:11:55
  Speaker 9: early in our history, Christmas was abolished by the Puritans,
• 2:12:00
  Speaker 9: and anybody who celebrated Christmas would go to jail. Mormons
• 2:12:03
  Speaker 9: went to jail. And now we're seeing efforts by this
• 2:12:07
  Speaker 9: government to try to go after religious dissidents. And so
• 2:12:10
  Speaker 9: I've been leading a campaign to try to get people,
• 2:12:13
  Speaker 9: religious leaders from all over the country, to stand up
• 2:12:16
  Speaker 9: against the government and stand up in favor of religious freedom.
• 2:12:21
  Speaker 9: So I just wanted to say that because it's so
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 9: important to making America an even greater country than it
• 2:12:27
  Speaker 9: is today.
• 2:12:27
  Speaker 1: Are these women in New York? Where are they, Alan?
• 2:12:30
  Speaker 17: They're in New York.
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 9: They're in jail now.
• 2:12:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 17: They got arrested.
• 2:12:34
  Speaker 9: They got put in jail. for, for the crime was slavery.
• 2:12:40
  Speaker 9: What happened is people volunteered to work for them the
• 2:12:42
  Speaker 9: way people volunteer to work for Hasidic Jews. People volunteer
• 2:12:45
  Speaker 9: to work for the Catholic church. People volunteer to work
• 2:12:48
  Speaker 9: for Mormons. But as a result of these people volunteering,
• 2:12:51
  Speaker 9: the government said, ah, you're keeping them as slaves because
• 2:12:55
  Speaker 9: a few of them afterwards said, ah, we regret having volunteered.
• 2:12:59
  Speaker 9: But that's what, you know, America is all about volunteerism.
• 2:13:03
  Speaker 9: And Many religions were built on volunteers, obviously. You know,
• 2:13:08
  Speaker 9: Christianity was built on volunteers, and so was Mormonism. And
• 2:13:13
  Speaker 9: so I am devoting myself very strongly to trying to
• 2:13:18
  Speaker 9: undo this injustice, and I'm hoping that the The government
• 2:13:22
  Speaker 9: will think twice about this, and the courts will think twice,
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 9: and maybe the president will do something to avoid what
• 2:13:28
  Speaker 9: could be a real stain on America.
• 2:13:32

  Speaker 9: I reserved a seat for you. I want to sit
• 2:14:05
  Speaker 9: next to Sid. Two tough, badass Jews cheering for one
• 2:14:10
  Speaker 9: of the great Jews in history, B.B. Netanyahu. So I

  Speaker 1: floods all over the place. Where we live is going
• 2:14:49
  Speaker 1: to be brutal, Louis, there by the beach.
• 2:14:51
  Speaker 20: I imagine, surrounded by water.
• 2:14:52

  Speaker 20: And the ocean on one side.
• 2:14:54
