Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Oh, let me tell you, what a gorgeous Sunday fall
- 0:04Speaker 1: day it was yesterday. And it's so nice to have
- 0:08Speaker 1: you back, Natalie, because I know you are in marathon mode.
- 0:13Speaker 1: I am. Next Sunday.
- 0:15Speaker 2: This Sunday coming up, November 1st. We're going to be
- 0:18Speaker 2: on the air from 8 to noon with Larry and
- 0:20Speaker 2: Tim McLoone. We have a new race commentator this year.
- 0:23Speaker 3: She's going to be fabulous.
- 0:24Speaker 2: To tell you the truth, it is one of my
- 0:27Speaker 2: favorite days of the year. And as the marathon says,
- 0:29Speaker 2: the best day of the year in the best city
- 0:31Speaker 2: in the world. And it's true because I think Larry
- 0:33Speaker 2: has felt that now.
- 0:35Speaker 4: Oh, it is. It's amazing. You know what's amazing to me?
- 0:38Speaker 4: So we get to stay overnight, you know, the night before.
- 0:41Speaker 4: And you meet all the people in the hotels. They
- 0:44Speaker 4: come from everywhere. Australia, Belgium, Japan, man. And they work
- 0:50Speaker 4: all year for this moment just to come to New
- 0:52Speaker 4: York and run in the New York City Marathon. So
- 0:55Speaker 4: it's a whole bunch of dreams coming true. So it's
- 0:57Speaker 4: a lot of fun. I am so happy how much
- 1:00Speaker 4: you have to work on this because then I don't
- 1:02Speaker 4: have to. She does it. She does everything. I mean,
- 1:06Speaker 4: it's amazing how much work she does.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Yeah, so much prep. People don't realize for such a
- 1:11Speaker 1: huge event like that, Natalie is working morning, noon, and night,
- 1:16Speaker 1: and then you get to show up, Larry.
- 1:18Speaker 3: No, he does his fair share.
- 1:20Speaker 2: I mean, the TCS New York City Marathon does their
- 1:24Speaker 2: share for sure.
- 1:25Speaker 3: But, you know, the broadcast is, it's a lot.
- 1:27Speaker 2: You know, we've got four races going on at one time,
- 1:30Speaker 2: plus all the, you know, regular people, as I call them.
- 1:33Speaker 2: We have reporters, you know, all over the city. So
- 1:36Speaker 2: it's going to be a lot of fun. And this year,
- 1:38Speaker 2: it's the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the original...
- 1:42Speaker 2: Five Borough New York City Marathon, because as you know,
- 1:44Speaker 2: it started as a four loop around Central Park.
- 1:48Speaker 4: It's really grown. It's amazing what the New York Roadrunners
- 1:51Speaker 4: have done with this. I will tell you, I was
- 1:53Speaker 4: in a Zoom meeting with Natalie during the week, and
- 1:58Speaker 4: there's a whole lot of people on it. All these
- 2:00Speaker 4: people are on it. And then, so I'm watching it.
- 2:04Speaker 4: And then my son goes to leave and take the car,
- 2:06Speaker 4: and I have to run to him and say, what
- 2:08Speaker 4: are you doing?
- 2:08Speaker 1: What are you doing?
- 2:09Speaker 4: I didn't know my mic was on.
- 2:11Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:12Speaker 1: One of those Zoom problems. Everyone's like, Larry. At least
- 2:16Speaker 1: you didn't have your pants down to your knees and
- 2:18Speaker 1: your ankles like some of these commentators did during the
- 2:22Speaker 1: lockdown and pandemic. Wow, that was him. People lost careers
- 2:26Speaker 1: over that.
- 2:27Speaker 4: Yeah, CNN.
- 2:28Speaker 6: God.
- 2:29Speaker 1: But anyway.
- 2:29Speaker 2: But I hope you're all going to be with us
- 2:30Speaker 2: because it's going to be a lot of fun this Sunday.
- 2:32Speaker 1: I congratulate you both. I congratulate iHeart, obviously, WOR for
- 2:37Speaker 1: carrying the race. I like to go the day before
- 2:40Speaker 1: when they have the pasta run at Tavern on the
- 2:43Speaker 1: Green because, you know, they want to carve up, carve up.
- 2:45Speaker 1: And that's where they all come and assemble. So it
- 2:48Speaker 1: makes it easy for me. Hey, where you from? And
- 2:50Speaker 1: you know me. I always like, where you from? Where
- 2:51Speaker 1: you from? Where you from? It is going to be great.
- 2:54Speaker 1: I hope they have the weather that we had this
- 2:56Speaker 1: past weekend. Starting on Friday, where all of a sudden
- 3:01Speaker 1: they had the Apple foldable iPhone launch. I mean, everybody
- 3:07Speaker 1: who was 30 years old and younger. They had foldable chairs,
- 3:12Speaker 1: never mind the first foldable smartphone. They had foldable chairs.
- 3:16Speaker 1: They were out there early. The lines were around the block.
- 3:19Speaker 1: It was a weekend of lines. Saturday, all the Gen
- 3:22Speaker 1: Zers were out, and they were lining up at the
- 3:24Speaker 1: favorite food emporiums. For food that you would say, why
- 3:28Speaker 1: would you wait online for an hour? For food. Made
- 3:32Speaker 1: no sense. And then yesterday, Larry and Natalie... probably the
- 3:37Speaker 1: best of the three days, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, just a
- 3:40Speaker 1: gorgeous fall day. I went and I watched the early
- 3:44Speaker 1: voting on the lines. It was heavy. And I was
- 3:47Speaker 1: stunned by the fact that when I would question people,
- 3:52Speaker 1: not all that many knew who Bruce Blinken was. He
- 3:54Speaker 1: didn't have anything negative to say about him. Like you
- 3:57Speaker 1: would typically, oh, Republican, I hate him and Trump. A
- 4:00Speaker 1: lot of people didn't know who he was, which seems
- 4:02Speaker 1: to jive with the polls because I've said Starting on
- 4:07Speaker 1: Labor Day, he's run an extremely good campaign. I thought
- 4:11Speaker 1: a better campaign than Zeldin. Plus, he's pro-choice. That didn't
- 4:14Speaker 1: resonate on the lines yesterday. But there were lines everywhere,
- 4:17Speaker 1: no matter where you went.
- 4:19Speaker 4: Yeah, I will tell you what, over the weekend, I
- 4:21Speaker 4: was just grandpa.
- 4:22Speaker 5: So.
- 4:23Speaker 4: I went to my daughter's flag football game. She was
- 4:27Speaker 4: in a national tournament and they almost won. They got
- 4:30Speaker 4: to the championship, almost won. She was interviewed for the
- 4:32Speaker 4: first time.
- 4:33Speaker 5: Oh, really?
- 4:33Speaker 4: And he was interviewed, yeah, by Flag Football Magazine, which
- 4:37Speaker 4: I guess is only online. And then the best thing
- 4:41Speaker 4: ever about being a grandfather is the three little kids
- 4:46Speaker 4: dressing up for Halloween. And we went through a neighborhood
- 4:49Speaker 4: where all the businesses- you know, give out Halloween stuff. Oh, man,
- 4:53Speaker 4: it is the best ever. It is my middle child,
- 4:58Speaker 4: my middle grandchild, Lily, dressed up like Anne of Green Gables.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Wow.
- 5:05Speaker 4: She's 10. She's red, Anne of Green Gables at 10
- 5:09Speaker 4: years old.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Wow, you were busting your buttons and bridges with pride. Oh, yeah.
- 5:13Speaker 4: No, they were all great. It was wonderful, all three
- 5:15Speaker 4: of them. It was wonderful. Timmy was Darth Vader. You know,
- 5:18Speaker 4: it was just... That's the whole, yeah, you know, he's
- 5:22Speaker 4: six and he's Darth Vader. And it was just, it
- 5:24Speaker 4: is exactly why you want to be a grandpa. It's
- 5:28Speaker 4: so much better being a grandpa.
- 5:29Speaker 1: And you know, you mentioned Halloween. Next Saturday night is
- 5:33Speaker 1: the annual Greenwich Village Halloween Parade. I mean, tens of
- 5:36Speaker 1: thousands of people. That's last year. Remember a lot of
- 5:39Speaker 1: people dressed up like me. That's a little different than this, right?
- 5:42Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Totally. Totally. But it's really– I feel for all the
- 5:46Speaker 1: candidates running, both Democrats and Republicans and a few independents,
- 5:50Speaker 1: because that's the last weekend before November 3rd.
- 5:54Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 5:54Speaker 1: So the attention is going to be on the Greenwich
- 5:57Speaker 1: Village Halloween Parade because– I mean, close to 100,000 people
- 6:02Speaker 1: in all different costumes. That's Saturday night. Then Sunday, the
- 6:05Speaker 1: New York City Marathon, which is an international extravaganza. So
- 6:10Speaker 1: if you're trying to get last-minute attention– You'd be lucky
- 6:14Speaker 1: if you make the cut on the nightly news. You know,
- 6:16Speaker 1: it's tough. And I think everybody has to realize that
- 6:20Speaker 1: all of these candidates have been running for about a
- 6:22Speaker 1: year straight, around the clock. They've gone to all kinds
- 6:26Speaker 1: of events. They've had to put their personal lives on hold.
- 6:29Speaker 1: It is not, as you know, Larry, covering a lot
- 6:31Speaker 1: of races as you have. It is not easy for
- 6:34Speaker 1: the candidates and especially their families. So Whether they win
- 6:38Speaker 1: or lose, I congratulate them all and their volunteers and
- 6:42Speaker 1: their staff because a lot of people decide not to
- 6:45Speaker 1: get involved in running for politics. That's one of the factors.
- 6:48Speaker 4: I will tell you that you handled losing better than
- 6:53Speaker 4: I've ever seen of a candidate because I have a
- 6:55Speaker 4: lot of friends that have run for office. And it's
- 6:59Speaker 4: devastating when they lose to them. You don't even hear
- 7:02Speaker 4: from them for like a month or a month and
- 7:04Speaker 4: a half. They have to get over it. And I
- 7:07Speaker 4: asked somebody what it was because he lost in a
- 7:11Speaker 4: tough race for Congress. And I asked him, you know,
- 7:15Speaker 4: what hurt so much? Like, why do you remove yourself
- 7:19Speaker 4: from society for a while? And he says it is
- 7:22Speaker 4: the ultimate rejection.
- 7:24Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm so used to having been rejected. I mean,
- 7:28Speaker 1: look at me. Kicked out of a prestigious high school,
- 7:31Speaker 1: Brooklyn Prep. One of the best. Obviously rejected by quite
- 7:35Speaker 1: a few women over the years. Fired many times in
- 7:40Speaker 1: radio that I've been doing for 35 years. So after
- 7:43Speaker 1: a while, you're like 72, you realize I'm lucky to
- 7:47Speaker 1: be where I am because of all the rejection. So
- 7:51Speaker 1: you just flow. And actually, the campaign turned out to
- 7:55Speaker 1: be a very good thing for me. Because many more
- 7:58Speaker 1: people were exposed to who I was, what I do,
- 8:01Speaker 1: what I've done in my whole life. Especially those who
- 8:04Speaker 1: were 30 and younger. We call them the Gen Z's.
- 8:07Speaker 1: So you just can't be, you know, you can't crawl
- 8:10Speaker 1: into a hole and get very depressed. I realize why
- 8:14Speaker 1: many people would. They put everything into it. They're like
- 8:17Speaker 1: Bruce Blateman. All 62 counties. That's a gargantuan task to
- 8:24Speaker 1: go all throughout the state of New York, whether it's Pennsylvania,
- 8:27Speaker 1: the same thing, from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia. That's a gargantuan task.
- 8:32Speaker 4: Imagine Texas.
- 8:33Speaker 1: Yeah, Texas, California, Florida.
- 8:36Speaker 4: Yeah, California.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Not so much New Jersey. You know, from Camden on
- 8:41Speaker 1: up to Hudson County, the most corrupt county in America.
- 8:44Speaker 4: Well, the problem with New Jersey is they have no
- 8:46Speaker 4: TV market.
- 8:47Speaker 5: Yes.
- 8:48Speaker 4: So you don't get the TV ads. If you do
- 8:50Speaker 4: get the TV ads, you've got to pay for them
- 8:52Speaker 4: in two markets, and they cost a fortune. So, yeah,
- 8:57Speaker 4: Jersey's a little bit tougher than you think of.
- 8:59Speaker 2: I never thought about that because you have to pay
- 9:01Speaker 2: the Philly market for the South Jersey and up here
- 9:04Speaker 2: in New York for the Northern New Jersey.
- 9:06Speaker 3: That's crazy. Crazy.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Absolutely. Super expensive. So, again, I know you all have
- 9:12Speaker 1: your favorite candidates out there. And so far, hate is
- 9:16Speaker 1: going to drive the vote for both sides. But when
- 9:19Speaker 1: all is said and done, you know, I congratulate all
- 9:22Speaker 1: the candidates, their staff and their volunteers, because this is
- 9:25Speaker 1: what democracy is about.
- 9:27Speaker 4: And it hurts when you lose. I mean, it really
- 9:29Speaker 4: does hurt. So remember that as well. These guys are.
- 9:33Speaker 4: These guys are playing a part, an important part of
- 9:36Speaker 4: the process, win or lose.
- 9:37Speaker 1: But remember, Tom Cuddy, our program director, picked me off
- 9:41Speaker 1: the ground and said, you're better together. And all of
- 9:43Speaker 1: a sudden, I got joined with you on the best
- 9:46Speaker 1: talk radio station in New York City, 710 WR. So
- 9:50Speaker 1: how does it get any better than that after you
- 9:52Speaker 1: lose a mayoral race?
- 9:53Speaker 4: Yeah, we'd love to hear about the election. If you'd
- 9:56Speaker 4: like to talk about Curtis losing mayoral race, we'd love
- 9:58Speaker 4: to hear from you. If you just want to talk...
- 10:00Speaker 4: about politics and what you think is going to happen,
- 10:02Speaker 4: that's fine. What you did this weekend, you know, I'd
- 10:05Speaker 4: love to hear from the grandpas out there on how
- 10:08Speaker 4: wonderful it is. You know what it is? What being
- 10:10Speaker 4: a grandfather is, it is all the joy of being
- 10:13Speaker 4: a parent with no responsibility. Because you get to leave.
- 10:17Speaker 4: When things go wrong, you go up.
- 10:18Speaker 1: See you later.
- 10:19Speaker 4: Hope you can handle that.
- 10:21Speaker 3: And can I put one thing in for Talkbacks this week?
- 10:23Speaker 5: Sure.
- 10:23Speaker 3: If you know someone running the marathon, give us a
- 10:27Speaker 3: shout out. We'd love to hear about them.
- 10:29Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Because we're going to be playing a Team Inspire feature
- 10:31Speaker 2: during the week. And you're going to hear some people like,
- 10:33Speaker 2: it's incredible why and how people run.
- 10:37Speaker 3: And I know we have audience members out there.
- 10:39Speaker 4: Yeah, and you have a lot of people in those
- 10:42Speaker 4: segments that have overcome things in their lives, and it's amazing.
- 10:46Speaker 4: They just overcame all the obstacles they had, and yet
- 10:50Speaker 4: they can still run a marathon. God bless them. Go
- 10:52Speaker 4: to the iHeartRadio app and leave us a talkback. You
- 10:55Speaker 4: could win a Curtis Lee, win Larry Menti in the
- 10:57Speaker 4: morning T-shirt, which is going to be awarded every day
- 10:59Speaker 4: to our favorite talkback of the morning. And while you're
- 11:02Speaker 4: on the free iHeartRadio app, just go ahead and set
- 11:05Speaker 4: a preset for 710WOR. And don't forget, the best talk
- 11:10Speaker 4: back of the week takes on the C-Crane radio. Did
- 11:13Speaker 4: you hear about this? A flight heading to New Jersey
- 11:18Speaker 4: from Las Vegas had to be turned around because of
- 11:23Speaker 4: a possible hijacker on board. Plus, you got a chance
- 11:26Speaker 4: to see comedian John Mulaney at 825.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Bring more than half a billion. Curtis Lewa and Larry
- 11:34Speaker 1: Minty in the morning.
- 11:35Speaker 4: The conversation continues on 710WOR. Well, Curtis, early voting across
- 11:42Speaker 4: the country is setting records in some places. Texas is
- 11:47Speaker 4: up 75%. Kansas, it's double. In New York State, up
- 11:54Speaker 4: 75,000 from four years ago. In New Jersey, up 38%. Now,
- 12:01Speaker 4: here's the bad story, except you can't read too much
- 12:04Speaker 4: in New Jersey because it's becoming more and more of
- 12:08Speaker 4: a Democratic state. It looked like it might go purple
- 12:10Speaker 4: there for a while, but no, no, no, it's headed
- 12:12Speaker 4: back the other way. And Curtis brought up a good point.
- 12:15Speaker 4: It's because a lot of New Yorkers are moving to there,
- 12:18Speaker 4: especially from New York City. But two to one so far,
- 12:24Speaker 4: Democrats over Republicans in New Jersey. So it's not really
- 12:28Speaker 4: looking good for Tom Kaine Jr. He already had all
- 12:33Speaker 4: of the money pulled. And you see Campbell putting up
- 12:37Speaker 4: ad after ad after ad after ad, and he's not
- 12:40Speaker 4: able to fight back right now because it seems like
- 12:43Speaker 4: the Republicans may have given up on that race. So
- 12:47Speaker 4: bad news for Republicans running in New Jersey right now
- 12:50Speaker 4: because Democrats are outpacing them, at least in the early voting,
- 12:54Speaker 4: two to one. But now let's talk about some of
- 12:57Speaker 4: the races across the country, because as I said, there's
- 13:01Speaker 4: some big ones. The ones that are getting a lot
- 13:03Speaker 4: of attention, of course, is Ohio, between Amy Acton and
- 13:09Speaker 4: Vivek Ramaswamy. She came out, remember after that ad that
- 13:15Speaker 4: featured her mother saying that she was a liar? These
- 13:17Speaker 4: are parents that she.
- 13:21Speaker 4: She was sexually abused by the stepfather, and now for
- 13:25Speaker 4: the mother to come out and say that she's a
- 13:27Speaker 4: liar and she can't be trusted. Well, she was on
- 13:31Speaker 4: some of the national shows over the weekend talking about it.
- 13:35Speaker 6: My mother was not well as a child. My brother
- 13:38Speaker 6: and I, from the age of three for me and
- 13:40Speaker 6: when my brother was born, went through extreme child abuse
- 13:45Speaker 6: and neglect. We were frequent flyers in children's services. This
- 13:48Speaker 6: went on for years, even well before... She married my stepfather.
- 13:53Speaker 4: She really has not talked about that in this campaign,
- 13:58Speaker 4: but she said she was forced to because of that ad.
- 14:03Speaker 6: For those out there going through it now, hold on. Please,
- 14:07Speaker 6: if there's someone you feel safe with, say something about it.
- 14:11Speaker 4: I'll tell you what, Curtis, you know, I know I
- 14:13Speaker 4: don't want to talk too much about the politics of
- 14:16Speaker 4: this because it seems like she had the hell of
- 14:19Speaker 4: a childhood, especially her brother had a hell of a childhood.
- 14:23Speaker 4: But the fact that he ran this ad and her
- 14:27Speaker 4: counterpunch was to come out and finally start talking about it,
- 14:31Speaker 4: that's going to have a huge effect on the Ohio elections.
- 14:35Speaker 4: And I think that Acton may have just won it
- 14:38Speaker 4: after that ad. I wasn't sure the ad itself was
- 14:40Speaker 4: going to do it, but her coming out and responding
- 14:43Speaker 4: on TV station after TV station after TV station is
- 14:47Speaker 4: pretty darn strong.
- 14:48Speaker 1: Yeah, and Vivek is just not a likable guy. You know,
- 14:53Speaker 1: I've watched how he's handled this. You know, he's got
- 14:56Speaker 1: that strange hairdo. Sort of like that guy in the
- 14:59Speaker 1: Fox News channel who used to be the congressman from
- 15:03Speaker 1: South Carolina, Trey Gowdy. You know, weird hairdo. And highly
- 15:09Speaker 1: defensive and angry in a sudden, that's not really what
- 15:12Speaker 1: you want to take in a race that you may
- 15:14Speaker 1: be behind. His lieutenant governor, though, much smarter, his candidate,
- 15:19Speaker 1: Vivek's candidate, said, oh, no, we say prayers for her
- 15:22Speaker 1: and what her family went through. And he's even distancing
- 15:26Speaker 1: himself from it. Now, that's your running mate. I was
- 15:30Speaker 1: happy to see that the president has stopped talking about it.
- 15:34Speaker 1: Because I really think it doesn't do Republicans well in
- 15:37Speaker 1: other places, especially where women are running, you know, for
- 15:40Speaker 1: high office, the U.S. Senate, and then they have to
- 15:42Speaker 1: answer for that. And we'll see if the key issues
- 15:45Speaker 1: now prevail. And in Ohio, unlike most other states, one
- 15:50Speaker 1: of the big issues is something we focused on, artificial
- 15:54Speaker 1: intelligence data filing centers. It's one of the big issues
- 15:57Speaker 1: in that state. It isn't a big issue in a
- 15:59Speaker 1: lot of states. But it will be now up to
- 16:01Speaker 1: the voters. He's got eight days, Vivek. I don't think
- 16:04Speaker 1: he can pull it out. He's got, remember, you got
- 16:08Speaker 1: the Senate race, Husted. We'll be talking about Trump's fascination
- 16:12Speaker 1: with his Tuchus and also Menage a Trois, who was
- 16:17Speaker 1: with him in Huron, Michigan, yesterday, coming up. But he's
- 16:21Speaker 1: in a tough race. He's the sitting senator who replaced J.D. Vance.
- 16:25Speaker 1: And the story you brought to our attention, in which
- 16:28Speaker 1: Senator Moreno... publicly disparaged a Republican candidate, the congressman, who
- 16:34Speaker 1: had had a lot of problems with his daughter, a
- 16:36Speaker 1: lot of charges, and he insisted on staying in the race. So,
- 16:40Speaker 1: Ohio has gone from a race that should have been
- 16:43Speaker 1: a slam dunk for Republicans, and now it's starting to
- 16:47Speaker 1: look more and more like the Democrats may sweep a
- 16:50Speaker 1: lot of the elected positions.
- 16:52Speaker 4: Here's something really fascinating. In the Alaska race, Dan Sullivan
- 16:56Speaker 4: is running for re-election and is in a tough race.
- 17:00Speaker 4: Justice Department is now investigating how exactly the other Dan
- 17:05Speaker 4: Sullivan got on the ballot. And the fear is they
- 17:10Speaker 4: might they're taking this extremely seriously right now. The president
- 17:13Speaker 4: keeps talking about Alaska. Now they're investigating to see if
- 17:18Speaker 4: this was manipulated by the Democratic Party and that there
- 17:21Speaker 4: might be charges on this and the The results of
- 17:25Speaker 4: the election may be called into question. But Donald Trump,
- 17:28Speaker 4: in every campaign appearance, has talked about Alaska, and he's
- 17:32Speaker 4: stepped it up. We have a man named Dan Sullivan.
- 17:35Speaker 1: So the Democrats, maybe here they're not so dumb, they
- 17:38Speaker 1: put another man also with the name of Dan Sullivan.
- 17:41Speaker 1: So we have two Dan Sullivans. How about that?
- 17:44Speaker 4: Yeah, and Blanche says, listen, if this is fraud, it's fraud.
- 17:48Speaker 4: You know, you can't go ahead and do that if
- 17:52Speaker 4: your intent is just to throw the election to one side.
- 17:56Speaker 1: Well, what a lot of people don't realize is that
- 17:58Speaker 1: Alaska has ranked choice voting, not just in the primaries,
- 18:02Speaker 1: but in the general election. So you can imagine Dan Sullivan,
- 18:08Speaker 1: the senator, Republican senator, number one, Dan Sullivan, who apparently
- 18:13Speaker 1: was a resident out of state and suddenly decided to
- 18:16Speaker 1: move to Alaska and, you know, put on the Eskimo shoes.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Can I say Eskimo is considered politically? I think that's fine.
- 18:23Speaker 1: They're actually Eskimos.
- 18:25Speaker 5: Right.
- 18:25Speaker 1: But the point being is, remember, he sort of like
- 18:28Speaker 1: all of a sudden moved there. Suddenly he determined I
- 18:31Speaker 1: think he was living in Arizona. He wanted to live
- 18:33Speaker 1: in Alaska. But because of ranked choice voting, you don't
- 18:36Speaker 1: have to do ranked choice. You can just pull the
- 18:38Speaker 1: thick one. But a lot of people do. They love
- 18:40Speaker 1: to play the bingo card. He'll end up getting possibly
- 18:44Speaker 1: enough votes to impact on the present senator, Dan Sullivan,
- 18:50Speaker 1: the real Sullivan, running in this race so that the
- 18:53Speaker 1: Democrat could easily win. Now, she's ahead in the polls.
- 18:57Speaker 4: Not by a lot. Not by a lot. And you're right.
- 19:01Speaker 4: This could affect the election. That's why they're taking it
- 19:03Speaker 4: so seriously. Todd Blench, the attorney general, had to defend
- 19:07Speaker 4: the fact that he has gotten involved. It's not only
- 19:10Speaker 4: the president that's saying that.
- 19:11Speaker 7: It's the director of the Alaskan election process who has
- 19:14Speaker 7: said that the second Dan Sullivan is going to create confusion,
- 19:19Speaker 7: is not a real candidate, and is on the ballot
- 19:21Speaker 7: only to pull votes from the incumbent. So the real
- 19:24Speaker 7: question is, that Americans should be asking is not what
- 19:27Speaker 7: you just opened on, but how as a country, how
- 19:30Speaker 7: as Alaskans are we allowing this to happen?
- 19:33Speaker 4: Right. I mean, it's a big deal. I mean, if
- 19:35Speaker 4: it were to happen there, it can happen everywhere. He's
- 19:38Speaker 4: raised no money and he's campaigned nowhere. And of course,
- 19:42Speaker 4: the other big race is the one in Michigan. And
- 19:44Speaker 4: Donald Trump, of course, kept talking about al-Sayed. I'm here
- 19:48Speaker 4: to keep a jihadist Muslim Brotherhood member from becoming a
- 19:55Speaker 4: United States senator.
- 19:57Speaker 1: And that's the fact.
- 20:00Speaker 4: Yeah. Listen, I think this Muslim Brotherhood thing has really
- 20:04Speaker 4: caught on. You can see he's getting very testy about it.
- 20:07Speaker 4: He went after them on Fox News for even bringing
- 20:10Speaker 4: it up and then wouldn't let Bret Baier talk. He
- 20:13Speaker 4: just kept interrupting them saying... I'm not talking about this anymore.
- 20:16Speaker 4: I'm not talking about this anymore. That's a bad way
- 20:18Speaker 4: to handle it.
- 20:19Speaker 1: Well, the one thing he's doing, he's going into places
- 20:22Speaker 1: where he would never have gotten any votes. As we said,
- 20:24Speaker 1: the upper peninsula, you aptly described, he was wearing a
- 20:29Speaker 1: cowboy hat with the red, white, and blue, the American
- 20:31Speaker 1: flag belt buckle. He was, you know, he had the
- 20:35Speaker 1: jeans on, he was singing country Western songs. And then
- 20:39Speaker 1: over the weekend, Saturday, uh, Michigan lost to last year's
- 20:44Speaker 1: winner of the NCAA championship, Indiana, 13-6. He originally said
- 20:48Speaker 1: that American football could be considered unethical and unsafe. There
- 20:54Speaker 1: he was, cheering on Michigan, high-fiving the band. I'm telling you,
- 20:59Speaker 1: these politicians, whatever edge they have, even if they don't
- 21:02Speaker 1: believe in it, Man, they're into it, especially with eight
- 21:06Speaker 1: days left.
- 21:07Speaker 4: But the biggest thing that had happened in Michigan for
- 21:10Speaker 4: El-Sayed was the fact that they brought in the heavyweight
- 21:14Speaker 4: slugger Barack Obama, who had a wonderful shot. I have
- 21:19Speaker 4: to admit, this is a great shot against Donald Trump
- 21:22Speaker 4: and his renovations on the White House.
- 21:25Speaker 1: What's up with the goals?
- 21:30Speaker 4: I mean, he's got the White House looking like Saddam
- 21:33Speaker 4: Hussein opened a cheesecake factory.
- 21:36Speaker 1: It's just gold everywhere.
- 21:40Speaker 4: He was there really trying to push for El-Sayed. People
- 21:43Speaker 4: are so ready for something new, so hungry for something.
- 21:47Speaker 1: Better, so sick and tired of being sick and tired
- 21:52Speaker 1: that everywhere you go, it feels like change is in
- 21:56Speaker 1: the air. And Michigan, that's what I'm feeling right now. Wow,
- 22:01Speaker 1: there is nobody better for the Democrats than Barack Obama.
- 22:05Speaker 1: He's smooth. There's nobody better for the Republicans than Donald Trump.
- 22:08Speaker 1: They're the superstars of their party. And imagine, here it is,
- 22:12Speaker 1: Obama in Detroit to get out the black vote, which
- 22:16Speaker 1: is questionable. Mike Rogers is living in every black community
- 22:19Speaker 1: in Detroit, which is majority black. They are 12 percent
- 22:22Speaker 1: of the overall vote. And then here's Donald Trump up
- 22:26Speaker 1: in Huron, which is only 60 miles away, you know,
- 22:30Speaker 1: mostly white working middle class. And he's, as you aptly
- 22:34Speaker 1: pointed out. saying that El Saeed is Muslim Brotherhood, communist, socialist, jihadist.
- 22:43Speaker 1: He's throwing everything at El Saeed.
- 22:46Speaker 4: Well, you've been talking a lot about Donald Trump noticing
- 22:50Speaker 4: a man's rear end. He's not done yet. He kept
- 22:54Speaker 4: talking about it. And one of the... Well, I'm going
- 22:58Speaker 4: to stop there.
- 22:59Speaker 3: Curtis Lewa and Larry Minty.
- 23:01Speaker 1: They're better together.
- 23:03Speaker 6: On 710WOR.
- 23:06Speaker 1: Warner Wolf, I never saw this with all the football
- 23:10Speaker 1: I ever watched. At the end of the giant game
- 23:12Speaker 1: that they won, they tackled Harbaugh. The coach, they tackled
- 23:16Speaker 1: him to the ground. He's on the ground. Have you
- 23:19Speaker 1: ever seen that before?
- 23:21Speaker 5: No, I never saw him tackled. Everybody's seen the Gatorade
- 23:24Speaker 5: over the head or carry him off. I've never seen
- 23:28Speaker 5: him tackled.
- 23:30Speaker 1: Boy, they were excited. Did they have reason to be excited?
- 23:34Speaker 5: Oh, man, you know, here we get winning on the
- 23:37Speaker 5: last play of the game again. What an exciting team.
- 23:42Speaker 5: I'll tell you what, Chris, three stories from the game.
- 23:44Speaker 5: Number one, the return of Cam Scataboo back from the
- 23:49Speaker 5: dead out of the doghouse, 124 yards and 17 carries.
- 23:52Speaker 5: Story number two, 6'4, 230-pound Jameis Winston is now the
- 24:02Speaker 5: official $ 13 million tush-push carrier. And number three, you could
- 24:08Speaker 5: laugh at that. Number three, J.J. Jonathan James McCarthy, 20
- 24:15Speaker 5: for 28, and almost 500 total yards passing in his
- 24:20Speaker 5: two games. One of them was just one quarter. So
- 24:24Speaker 5: the Giants, barring injury, could be set for at least
- 24:28Speaker 5: the next 10 seasons With two top-flight quarterbacks, both Jackson, Dart,
- 24:35Speaker 5: and McCarthy, both are only 23 years old. So if
- 24:40Speaker 5: one is hurt or having a bad game in the
- 24:42Speaker 5: second half, put in the other guy, just like Allie
- 24:46Speaker 5: Sherman did with Y.A. Tittle and Charlie Connolly in the
- 24:51Speaker 5: 61 Giants Eastern Conference Championship. As far as the Jets go, oh, man.
- 24:57Speaker 5: If you can't beat the winless Dolphins playing at home,
- 25:01Speaker 5: who can you beat? Unfortunately, I think the writing is
- 25:06Speaker 5: on the wall for Aaron Glenn, who is now 5-19
- 25:09Speaker 5: as head coach of the Jets. Once it appears, again
- 25:15Speaker 5: it appears, Glenn cannot be a head coach and the
- 25:18Speaker 5: defensive coordinator at the same time and keep track of
- 25:23Speaker 5: the timeouts and management clocks. He saved all three of
- 25:27Speaker 5: his first half timeouts and took them into the dressing room.
- 25:33Speaker 5: What for? Was he looking for a refund? What do
- 25:38Speaker 5: you make of it?
- 25:40Speaker 1: I noticed the defense, the Jet defense, gave up 156
- 25:43Speaker 1: rush yards against a team not known for anything, the Dolphins.
- 25:49Speaker 1: Why doesn't the owner, Woody Johnson, say, you're not calling
- 25:53Speaker 1: the defense signals anymore? No.
- 25:57Speaker 5: Because Woody Johnson should be selling Q-tips at Johnson & Johnson.
- 26:06Speaker 5: I'll tell you, he didn't call any timeouts. You remember
- 26:12Speaker 5: the Dolphins moved 91 yards just before the half? And
- 26:19Speaker 5: the point is it left only six seconds for the
- 26:21Speaker 5: Jets to have the ball. He doesn't know. I'll tell
- 26:26Speaker 5: you an unbelievable statistic. Going back to last season, the
- 26:32Speaker 5: Jets have now been outscored 107-6 in the last two
- 26:38Speaker 5: minutes of the first half.
- 26:41Speaker 1: My, no, no, my, man.
- 26:43Speaker 5: Yeah, that tells you something right there. Wow. And you
- 26:48Speaker 5: know what's bad? The high-end gamblers know everything before everybody else.
- 26:53Speaker 5: Early in the week, The injured Ravens quarterback, Lamar Jackson,
- 26:58Speaker 5: took snaps, and he was listed as questionable, which means
- 27:02Speaker 5: he still might play. The Ravens were made a point-and-a-half
- 27:06Speaker 5: favorite at home against the Bengals. But later in the week,
- 27:12Speaker 5: the gamblers find out that Jackson is not going to play.
- 27:16Speaker 5: He's later declared out of the game, and the Ravens
- 27:19Speaker 5: become a point-and-a-half underdog. So since the Bengals easily won
- 27:24Speaker 5: the game by 32 points, if you took the Bengals
- 27:29Speaker 5: as a point-and-a-half underdog and then later took the— you know what? Oh, man,
- 27:37Speaker 5: I think I messed this up. If you took the— oh, jeez,
- 27:42Speaker 5: I messed myself.
- 27:45Speaker 1: Up.
- 27:46Speaker 5: If you took the Bengals early and the point-and-a-half, and
- 27:50Speaker 5: then later took the Bengals and gave the point and
- 27:54Speaker 5: a half, you won both bets. See, they know everything
- 27:59Speaker 5: before everybody else. By the way, nine of the 12
- 28:02Speaker 5: home teams lost yesterday. The bow of the week has
- 28:06Speaker 5: to go to Yankee owner Al Steinbrenner, who publicly blamed
- 28:11Speaker 5: three of his players for the Yankees' poor showing in
- 28:14Speaker 5: the playoffs. they help look in the mirror you're the
- 28:19Speaker 5: one who signed off on the three hundred forty eight
- 28:21Speaker 5: million dollar payroll including the luxury tax but actually your
- 28:27Speaker 5: you could just like your father who you remember after
- 28:30Speaker 5: dave winfield went one for twenty two in the nineteen
- 28:33Speaker 5: eighty one world series he called him mister may as
- 28:38Speaker 5: opposed to mister.
- 28:39Speaker 1: October all brilliant brilliant water and then.
- 28:42Speaker 5: You remember The Yankees had a pitcher named Hideki Irabu.
- 28:47Speaker 5: He failed to cover first base on a ground ball
- 28:51Speaker 5: in an exhibition game. And George called him a fat toad.
- 28:59Speaker 5: But here's the difference. I think your father would have
- 29:02Speaker 5: fired Aaron Boone by now after going 0 for 9
- 29:05Speaker 5: years and no World Series championship and continually taking out
- 29:10Speaker 5: a starting pitcher way too soon. he might have, I
- 29:15Speaker 5: don't know if he would have kept Brian Cashman or not.
- 29:18Speaker 5: He kept him for 12 years. Meanwhile, look at this.
- 29:22Speaker 5: Three of the World Series, Game 3, shifts to the
- 29:27Speaker 5: Milwaukee Brewers leading two games to none. Now, Milwaukee is
- 29:33Speaker 5: the smallest-sized major league market in the majors. And by
- 29:38Speaker 5: the way, they were 35-1. one shot to win the
- 29:41Speaker 5: World Series before the season began. And Tampa, see, this
- 29:46Speaker 5: is where Hal and his family live, in Tampa. I mean,
- 29:49Speaker 5: they're shoving it in his face. Your family's resided there
- 29:54Speaker 5: for years. And Tampa has a payroll almost four times
- 29:59Speaker 5: less than yours at only $ 90 million, ranking 28th out
- 30:04Speaker 5: of 30th in the major leagues. And before the season,
- 30:09Speaker 5: the Rays were 80-1 to win the World Series. So
- 30:14Speaker 5: if someone could have put down $ 1, 000 there, they'd win
- 30:18Speaker 5: $ 80, 000 if they win.
- 30:20Speaker 4: Hey, Warner, this is the worst.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Go ahead.
- 30:22Speaker 5: Yeah, go ahead.
- 30:23Speaker 4: Now, this is the worst thing that could happen to
- 30:25Speaker 4: the players' union going into contract negotiations for next season.
- 30:30Speaker 5: Yeah. What do you mean, small market team? What are
- 30:33Speaker 5: you talking about? Look who's in the World Series.
- 30:36Speaker 4: That's right.
- 30:37Speaker 5: That's right. Well, here's the boo of the week. Actually,
- 30:41Speaker 5: she's the stooge of the week. It goes to Minnesota
- 30:44Speaker 5: Representative Ilhan Omar. I heard you guys talking earlier. Responding
- 30:50Speaker 5: to a reporter about the immigration probe investigating her U.S.
- 30:55Speaker 5: citizenship status. When if she married, did she marry her brother?
- 31:01Speaker 5: She said, not to my knowledge. Not to my knowledge.
- 31:08Speaker 5: You've got to be kidding. You wouldn't know whether or
- 31:11Speaker 5: not you married your own brother. Here's the bottom line.
- 31:15Speaker 5: She knows if she says yes, she's got a one-way
- 31:20Speaker 5: ticket back to Somalia. If she says no, everyone knows
- 31:25Speaker 5: she's lying. What a loser.
- 31:27Speaker 1: Now, Warner, you know what she's going to be wearing,
- 31:30Speaker 1: a Minnesota Vikings jersey. They're the only undefeated NFL team
- 31:35Speaker 1: to just totally distract from that because everybody will go, yeah, Eli, yeah.
- 31:41Speaker 5: Yeah, she's been a fan for years, even in Somalia.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Well, do appreciate that, Warner Wolfe. Same time, same place
- 31:52Speaker 1: next week. Man, that was good. That was solid.
