  Speaker 1: McCartney and a whole lot more just ahead. So, boy,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: the President did a lot of talking yesterday. They had
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: a cabinet meeting. He let the press come in. He
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: spoke at length, just endlessly, endlessly talk to the press.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Let him ask questions. You know where so used to
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Biden with this one press conference every four years and
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: only two questions and their handpicked and the answers are
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: written out for him, and he reads the answer to
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to see a president just ad lib about everything and anything,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: and then he called goes in on the five last night,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the five highest rated show on Fox TV, not for
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: ten minutes, for the whole show. The whole show was
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: President Trump just talking at great length. He revealed a
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: lot of important things about Iran, about other matters. What
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: was the gift he had referred to, this gift that
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Iran gave him that encouraged him. They gave him a gift. Well,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: it was ten tankers that were allowed through the states
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: of Horror Moose. Now they were friendly tankers to Iran,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: but they were allowed to go through. So ten tankers,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: that's a lot of oil that came through the straits
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: of Horror Moose. So it's slowly but surely getting fixed.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Win Cough and his team are still negotiating with Iran.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: They do it through a third party, They do it
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: through Pakistan, and they do it through Turkey. But negotiations
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: are taking place. Here's Wick coffee.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: We have strong signs that this is a possibility and
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: if the deal happens, it will be great for the
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: country of Iran, to the entire region and the world
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: at large.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how he's supposed to talk. When you're officially
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to talk very formally. Strong signs that it
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: may occur. But if you're Donald Trump, you say it otherways.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: They are begging to work out a deal. I don't
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: know if we'll be able to do that. I don't
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: know if we're willing to do that. They should have
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: done that four weeks ago. They should have done it
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: two years ago.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the Trump approaches different. Yes, we're in talks with
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: the Trump approach. They're begging. They're begging. We may not
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: do it. I don't know, we may not do it.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: But he is sending this I think ten thousand troops there.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: There's twenty thousand more troops on the way. He's sending
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: a thousand paratroopers over there. Now, if you watch the
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: crazy Democratic talking heads, of course, other obviously it's a
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: ground war. It's definitely a ground war coming. No, not
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: at all, not at all. One of the main points
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: of Trump negotiating is create total uncertainty, total confusion. Give
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: the enemy a million mixed signals so they have no
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: idea what you're gonna do next. That's one reason you
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: send these troops. It's one reason you send paratroopers. You
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: just try to confuse the hell out of the enemy
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: so they have absolutely no idea what you're gonna do.
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: The other problem is it does the same thing to us,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: and now we're all totally confused that we don't know
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: what he's gonna do, but he knows what he's gonna do. Drones.
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: The drones two are way down. But the reason they're
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: down is they go one way. They don't come back
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: because for the most part we're shooting them down. But
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: we also are able to We've really done tremendous damage
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: to the places where they make them.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now we knew they had drones. These are serious drones.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: These are like unmanned drones. They can go one thousand miles,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: they can do all kinds of stuff, very high tech drones.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Now we thought they had some, but we didn't realize
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: how many. They had an incredible inventory of drones, which
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: surprised us. Tens of thousands of these drones, and we
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: do shoot them all down. Once in a million years,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: one gets through, but we shoot them all down, so
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: they're useless against us.
• 4:20
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: The only catch is the drone costs thirty thousand. The
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: missile we shoot it down with costs about a million.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: So every time we shoot one down, it's costing us
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: about a million bucks. Hey, the shutdown, it looks like
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: it's going to come to an end. He spoke about
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: that we're not going to let.
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: The Democrats get away with this stuff, and people are
• 4:38
  Speaker 8: wise to them, so they need to end the shutdown
• 4:42
  Speaker 8: immediately or we'll have to take some very drastic measures.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Now this is yesterday, and yesterday there was a meeting
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Capitol Hill, meeting Republicans meeting with Chuck Schumer who showed
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: up twenty minutes late, infuriating everybody, and the Republicans began
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: to yell at Chuck schu about what's going on. You
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: know you have he's all upset. You know, he doesn't
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: want ICE to do a thing. You got illegals here
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: who are murdering people. He had this horrible murder in Chicago,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: this young college student from Yorktown Heights just executed by
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: an illegal migrant. Then he had this eighty three year
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: old veteran who was killed by an illegal. These are
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: the people you want to get out of the country.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: You want them picked up and taken out. That's what
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: ICE does. And they were yelling at check you you
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: got to agree to fun TSA, We got to do this.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: You gotta do something about these illegals. They're yelling and screaming,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: and Schumer just walked out. Schumer just left. He didn't
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: want to hear it. He ran out of the meeting.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: He sat for just two minutes, ran out and slammed
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: the door. It's unbelievable, you know. And then they were
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: yelling at them, you want to negotiate on federal warrants,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: go start negotiating on sanctuary cities and detainer requests and
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: all of that. So it looked bad that he wouldn't
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: even listen to this. He just ran out slammed the door.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Schumer's office put out a statement that just trying to
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: cover up this matter. Sanator Schumer is glad the NYPD
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: quickly arrested the perpetrator and believes he should face swift
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: justice and severest punishment possible under the law. Well, that's
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: deporting him. This is the this is the illegal who
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: shoved this eighty three year old veteran off a subway
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: track into the train, killed them. So Schumer just looking
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: ridiculous on this. Now here's the problem. Congress is now
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: going on spring break. Yeah, they have a spring break,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: you know, a lot of us are deciding Easter weekend
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: should I take. Maybe I'll take Friday, Maybe I'll take
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Monday passover. Well, of course, take a day off or
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: to a day or two. Congress three weeks, spring break,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: three weeks spring break, Yeah, later to spring break begins.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: They're off for three weeks. They're gone for three weeks.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: So it looks like they're going to try to get
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: something done about the TSA. By the end of the day,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the Senate has already passed something. You've got to get
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the House to pass it. So even they, even these
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: crazy congress people, Democrats and Republicans, they're all nuts there.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Even they know if they go on this three week
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: spring break without fixing the airport situation, they're going to
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: be in big trouble. So hopefully by the end of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: the day they will fix it. Now, Ice agents, ICE
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: officers are all through the airports, and it turns out,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I know, the Democrats are all over TV saying they're
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: gonna brutalize people, They're gonna shoot people. They've literally said this,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Eric Swawell, Bloomenthal, that crazy Chris Murphy, they've all said
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: the ICE agents will shoot people. Teared children, away from
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: their families, brutalized people in the airports. They've all said this,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: but it turns out just the opposite is happening, and
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: it's a great public relations move. People in the airports
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: reporting and posting everywhere with videos. The ICE agents are
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: helping people through the lines. They're handing out water. They
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: even saved a life the other day in the airport.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: They've helped kids that get lost. I mean, they've done
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: incredible work in the airports, and for the most part,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: people are coming up to the ICE agents and thanking them.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: You still got some crazy Democrats yelling and screaming and
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: causing a disruption, but it's an incredibly good pr move
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: for the ICE agents. Hey, in that long diatribe President yesterday,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: talking about all sorts of stuff, started to talk about sharpiees.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: The pen, you know, the sharpie pen, the thick black marker,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: and he uses them all the time, been using them
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: for years. When he signs his name with that big
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: black looks like a little magic marker kind of thing,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: that's a sharpie pen. And you know, in the Oval Office,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: for your whole life, you've watched the president do a
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: bill signing and he has these beautiful pens with the
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: White House logo on him. And when it's time to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: sign a bill, they bring out a holder with like
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: twenty pens, and he uses twenty pens to sign a bill.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Then he hands him out to everybody. Great souvenirs. But
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Trump revealed that those pens, they're fancy, fancy ballpoint pens,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: cost about one thousand dollars apiece, and a lot of
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: those bill signings, when you hand them out, the senator
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: will say, can I have a couple more from my kids?
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: And by the time you know it, you've handed out
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: thirty of them, and the President pointing out it's ridiculous
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: to spend thirty thousand to hand out a few pens
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: at a bill signing. And he loves sharpies. He always
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: signs with a sharpie. So he called the president of
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: the sharpie company, who didn't believe it was him. It
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: took a minute or two to convince him, this really
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: is the President, I'm really calling you, And he said,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: I love your pens. I want to use your pens.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I use them all the time to sign bills. And
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: he was very frank with the guy. He goes, but
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: they're kind of ugly. They're gray with a big assa
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: sonom and it says, sharpie is as you know, is
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: it possible he could make us some White House Sharpie pens?
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: And they agree on a design. They'll make the sharpiees
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: black with a gold White House logo and Donald Trump's
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: signature in gold. And the sharpie guy is so thrilled
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: about this, because what great promotion for the Sharpie company.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: He said, there's no charge, we'll give me and Trump says, no, no, no,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: we want to pay for him. And he said, we'll
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: give you five dollars a pen. I think they cost
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: him about normally cost a dollar. They said, we'll give
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: you five dollars a pen. And tens of thousands of
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: them are on their way to the White House as
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: we speak. He's been using them, but many many more
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: are coming. Great, great, a great idea from Trump. He
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: is made a lot of improvement in the White House,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: a lot of improvement. You know. He fixed up the
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: when you come into the White House, if you're a
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: special guest, a foreign leader, you come into this room.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: It's called the Palm Court. It was pretty cheesy with
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: linoleum floors, and it didn't look like much. So he
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: fixed that up, a beautiful marble and it's ornate when
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: you come in. It's beautiful. Fixed up the oval office
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: the Rose Garden, which was a nice idea John F.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Kennedy created. There's a big bunch of grass out there,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: so they put roses around it deck with some landscaping.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: But when you do ceremonies out there, whatever you do
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: out there, half the time it rained and it's soggy
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: and it's muddy, and people are sinking into the grass.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: And every time they have the event out there, the
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: grass is torn up. They got to replace it. So
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: he decided to turn into a beautiful patio. You know,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: they said he paved the Rose Garden. It wasn't paving.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: It was the most incredible marble. He put tons of
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: drains around it so that there would never be a problem.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: If it rained, the water would go away immediately. And
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: if you go up close and look at the drain,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: you know the holes and everything in the drain, the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: slats they're in the shape of the American flag. Really beautiful,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: every detail on this. So the Rose Garden in the
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: summer they put there, they have dinners out there. It's magnificent.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: The ballroom is coming now with the one dollar bill.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: The Secretary of the Treasury signature is on the one
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: dollar bill. When this little thing goes into effect, the
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: signature will be Donald Trump. Donald Trump's signature will be
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: on the one dollar bill. This is coming. Watch democrats
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: go insane and they have to take out a bill
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: with his signature on it. Now, does anybody really use
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: a one dollar bill anymore? Most people don't even use
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: cash anymore. I hardly ever use cash and a one
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: dollar bill, what would you do with the one day?
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I mean really not much you can do with it
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: vending machine even that. Use your phone now, So it'll
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: drive these left wing kooks absolutely nuts to see that
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: signature they're talking about. They're already changing in the name
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: of the street that comes to Marrow Lago Donald Trump.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: So every time a crazy Democrat has to turn on
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: that street and they see these signs, they just go nuts.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: The airport in Palm Beach they want to rename it
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump Airport, which makes sense. You know, every time
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: they have named a lot of airport. There's a lot
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: of airports named after presidents. Reagan Airport in DC, at
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Kennedy Airport, here, there's a lot of airports named after presidence,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: so it makes sense. And usually if it's your hometown,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: they'll name the airport after you. So left wing cooks
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: when they have to go to Palm Beach, they're going
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: to go nuts. It's gonna be on the ticket, it's
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: going to be on the the Trump name will be
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: on the baggage tag. They'll just go absolutely nuts. Hey,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: speaking to mar A Lago, Forbes magazine did a study
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: of what it's really worth. You remember the crazy uh
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: prosecutors here tried to say it was only worth eighteen million,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: and they got the dumbest judge ever. Now he's a
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: left wing kook, but he's incredibly dumb trying to convince
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: people mar A Lago was worth eighteen million. The house
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: next door, which is like one tenth the size, went
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: for fifty million. It's I mean, some people have estimated
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: the parking lot alone of Marilogo, just that land, would
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: be worth fifty million. So how could Marlogo be worth
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: eighteen million? Well, Forbes, which is pretty conservative when it
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: comes to estimating Trump wealth and value. Forbes did a
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: study on Marilgo put it at about six hundred million
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: six hundred million. If you talk to real estate people,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: very experienced Palm Beach real estate agents, they put it
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: more at a billion dollars because there's so much land
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: and so much going on there. And remember it's not
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: just the part here, it's the part on the other
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: side of the road, the beach club, all of that.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: So it's between six hundred million and a billion, once
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: again proving these local left wing kookie judges are absolutely
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: insane and don't know what they're talking about. Hey, we
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: got a lot to get to. Speaking of Forbes, Steve Forbes,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: the Great Chairman, will be with us a little later.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Scott Shannon will be here a little later. There's a
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: new Paul McCartney album. Should he be doing another album?
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, we'll ask the expert. He remember
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Seals and Crofts. They had a couple of big hits.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: They were like two hit wonders. Yeah, there were a
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: couple other minor hits, but it was really two big hits. Yeah,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: that was a big one, and then they followed it
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: up another big one. But oh, it was great stuff
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: back then. Your kids today, this was It's not really
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: yacht rock. It's like pre yacht rock. That's like seventy three,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: seventy four somewhere around there. But Crofts just died. Dash
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Crofts just you know the problem is when these guys die,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: you know, Seals and Crofts, how old you know you
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: think of the guys like thirty you're still seeing him
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: on the Midnight Special, it was eighty eight, eighty eight. Boy,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: time goes by eighty eight. Anyway, we'll take some calls. Next.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten is
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: the number? Eight hundred three to two one zero seven
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: ten zero?
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: Is that another for Mark's podcast to hear him anytime?
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Now, back to Mark Simone on woor Hey, let's take
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: some calls. Let's go to Dave in Chicago. Dave, how
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: you doing?
• 16:18
  Speaker 7: Good morning, Mark. I'm doing very well, thank you, and
• 16:21
  Speaker 7: I'm speaking to you with my brand new iPhone seventeen PROMCX. Yeah,
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: and it's wonderful.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I can barely hear you. Oh, I'm kidding.
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: I'm kiding.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: I'm kidding. It works fine, it sounds great.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Oh okay, thank god, I'm terribly sorry.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: No, it sounds good.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Listen, Mark. President Biden tried to lower gas prices at
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: one point in his administration by tapping into the Strategic
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: Oil Reserve.
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: It was a gimmick. We all know it.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Has that inventory been replaced?
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. Not yet. It's replaced a little
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: on a regular basis. But what President Trump dies? How
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: maybe he did do this When the prices get really low,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: he goes and buys a ton of it and fills
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: up the reserve. So he'll do that soon. Now it's
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: not a big problem for us because we produce our
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: own oil. Now we are totally energy independent. In fact,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: we export oil. Now that's how much we have. But
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: good question. Let's go to John and Long Island. John,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: how you doing.
• 17:22
  Speaker 7: Fine?
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: I love your show.
• 17:25
  Speaker 7: I just want to know if could you hear me?
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Yes, I just want to hate people call. What the
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: TV on? And you can hear it in the background,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: isn't that?
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: I'll it off a radio.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: It's great to have the radio, but it seems to
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: be on another station. But okay, go ahead.
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: Anyway, I just want to know if you could alert
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: your people about us.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: I will, okay, thank you for calling. I'll alert them.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: He's got the radio background. Anyway. Let's go to rich
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: and Myrtle Beach. Rich. How you doing.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: I don't know how to follow that one. I don't know.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: It's uh unbelievable.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Alert my people? Which people is he talking about? Who
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: am I supposed to alert?
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Maybe putting the back signal up or something. I don't know,
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: but uh, you know, I call them both Lindsey Graham
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: and Tim Scott's office this weekend and left messages, and
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: I spoke to him again this morning. You know, you
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: talk to the flunkeys in your office. Nobody has no
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: idea what WTI oil is. Nobody has any idea why
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: the price of oil has gone up, even though we're
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: totally oil independent in this country. But getting to the
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: thing about the singles, you know, I play in a
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: band and a lot of people here in Myrtle Beach
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: is a tourist town. The amount of singles we get
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: as tips in a night. I can walk out of
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: the fifty to sixty singles and I bring them down
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: to the ice cream parl because they're always begging for
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: small builds, you know, but this WT oil thing is
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: just a money grab and up the road, know what's
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: going on?
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Where are Myrtle Beach? Yet they still use Myrtle Beaches you.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: People still use singles down there. Up here, everybody uses
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: their phone to pay for everything. You know what the
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: problem is when you call a senator's office, the people
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: that work there. You don't realize this. They're all twenty
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: five years old. They're all in there twice, everybody that
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: works there. In fact, the senator never does anything. It's
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: these twenty summings. They write the bills. Mess well, first,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: they're not gonna give him a message when you called.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Do you think they can care at all? Do you
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: think they give a when you care, you call and say, listen,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: I like to make a donation. Twelve people will jump
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: right on the phone if you you call, I have
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: a complaint. Nobody's listening, nobody. He's looking at his phone
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: while you're talking. But thanks for calling. Everybody works in
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: every office, Congressional office, Senate office house. They're all in
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: their twenties, and they do all the work. They write
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: the bills, they do all the stuff while the senator
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: is tied up all day and night fundraising. They do
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: everything else. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you.
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: Doing, good morning, mock hom okay, Rich, I hope you're
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: doing better. With you'll leg Mark. I did that with
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: Nicole male A taxas office when she voted against Trump
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: a couple of years ago. I called up her office
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: and said I wanted to make a contribution. You watch
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: how fast I spoke to somebody higher up and then
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: I lit into them. Hey, Mark, what do you mean?
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Nobody uses cash? Nobody uses dollars?
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Normal people about normal That's all I use. We're talking
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: about normal people, not you. We're talking about normal people.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Some people have to use cash order they're up too.
• 20:27
  Speaker 7: But mark.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: My name, but you got a lot of cash. One
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: of those big broccoli rubber bands around it.
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: It's all I It's all I carry, Mark Mark. I
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: thought it was the absolute master stroke of Donald Trump
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: yesterday when he said he's gonna find the money to
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: fund the t say he's going to sign an executive
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: order and he'll get the money from one of the
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: other He'll get it from one of the other places.
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: I want to see. The Democrats, of course, are going
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: to go to court. It's going to take a couple
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: of weeks before that happens. Their heads are gonna explode.
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: They're gonna go on TV. They're gonna call him every
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: name under the sun. They're gonna make commercials that meanwhile,
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: while their head's exploding, the Republicans, Trump is gonna have
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: commercials campaign commercials, Madia of them exploding and being against
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: the TSA workers. And then next year during the campaign season,
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: during this fall, he's gonna add the ads and they're
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: gonna look like complete fools that they are. When I
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: heard it last night, I said, this guy's a genius.
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: I can't believe this masterstroke. You go to President Trump,
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: you go, you're the man.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: All right, Vincent, thanks for calling. Hey, we've got a
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: lot to get to. H oh, we'll talk to Steve
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Forbes next, always brilliant. Then we'll talk to him and uh,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: we got a lot coming up Marximo on seven to
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: ten Woorday. We're looking over Steve Forbes. They don't have
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: any How do I sound? Do I sound nasal? A little? Yeah,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: a little bit. And it started two days ago. My
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: nose you started running. I think it's allergies, and yesterday
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: got worse. And then I'm listening to Curtis, who sounds
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: great in the morning, but lately he's been talking like this.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's really stuffed up and I saw him, Yester,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: I said, do you have an allergy? Start calling us?
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: This is a cold? So maybe that's what I have.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: You hear that that is really stuffed up. I think
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: that's more than the allergies. Although they say it's the
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: worst couple of days of allergies in this week, the
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: worst few days ever. What happened to Steve Forbes? We
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: didn't find him? No, something about economists, something about economist
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: named Steve. They're hard to find. No, Steve Forbes is
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: the most reliable guest in the world. Hey, he always
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: tells us about it AI and not to be so
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: afraid of it. But there's consequences to AI. Remember when
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: the computers took over everything, go back to twenty nineteen
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: ninety nine, two thousand. All of a sudden, everything just
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: went computerized, Everything went high tech and put a lot
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: of people out of work when suddenly computers were doing everything.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: And remember back then, they would say to everybody, well,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: you know, you got to learn new skills. You should
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: learn coding. Once you can code, since the computers are
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: taken over. If you can code software ball, you'll be
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: working for life. It was a great idea. A lot
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: of people became software coders. Well, there's no more software coding.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: It's all been taken over by AI. Apparently that's one
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: thing AI is very good at writing. When you figure
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: out what you want to do software wise, instead of
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: having to write the code, you just let AI do it.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: And apparently if a couple of guys wanted to do
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: the coding to create the software, it could take days.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: If you put into AI, it takes about a second
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: and a half. So the whole coding industry is pretty
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: much dead. You don't really need to even think about
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: anybody going into that profession anymore. So it's a new
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: update for your iPhone. It's a kicky prug all these
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: it's twenty six to point four operating system. But if
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: you update to this, there's one good thing I like
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: on there. When you're charging your phone, if you're not
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: getting a really good charge, if it's a slow charge,
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: a warning light will go off tone and you get
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: a slow charge. You know, if you buy those chargers
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: from Apple or balcon or there's some really good companies
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: that make chargers, and you know they cost a little more.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: And sometimes you go on Amazon say look at this,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: Well here's a charger. It's only five bucks and you
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: get an off brand charger for your phone or the
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: not a real high quality cable. Well, the problem is
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: it doesn't give you a very fast charge. It could
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: take forever. So now there'll be a warning on those charges.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: So you know if you have to write, oh, we
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: got him, the great Steve Forbes, chairman of Forbes Media. Hey,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: get his latest book, Inflation. There's no better book on
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: the subject. The book's Inflation by Steve Forbes. And of
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: course read Forbes. It's the best at covering all this stuff.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Steve Forbes, How you doing doing fine? Thanks?
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: The sun is somewhat out and baseball is underway. The
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: Yankees won their opener, and great basketball. Everyone's rooting around
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: here for Saint John's if they can upset the Great Duke.
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: So in the rest of the world, well, not much
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: we can.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Do about it. But hey, with baseball, what we can baseball?
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: What do you think of that whatever they called ab
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: where it can actually check to see if it was
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: a striker or not. It can digitally look and see
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: if was a strike. Doesn't that take the human element
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: out of baseball?
• 25:51
  Speaker 7: It does, but inevitably with the technology you knew one
• 25:55
  Speaker 7: way the other that was coming. They've tried it out
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: in the minor leagues and short stuff for the Yankees
• 26:01
  Speaker 7: made histories, you know, on opening the day in San
• 26:04
  Speaker 7: Francisco by being the first player to challenge a call,
• 26:08
  Speaker 7: the computer found that the battle was wrong, so the
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: team lost its challenge. But and the speed, the key
• 26:16
  Speaker 7: thing is the speed. So you knew that was going
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: to come, and we just have to make the best
• 26:21
  Speaker 7: of it. But it's always fun though in the past
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: to be able to say, yeah, we lost the game
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: because lousy umping. But now now it's just he didn't
• 26:31
  Speaker 7: play very well.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: We like we like the fat, dumpy grumpy umpire And
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: who's who's the manager gonna yell at?
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: Now?
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: With that thing?
• 26:38
  Speaker 7: There's nobody to Billy Bill, Billy Martin wherever he is
• 26:41
  Speaker 7: right now? The Yankee manager, you can manager. I think
• 26:44
  Speaker 7: it was fired ten times with George Steinbrenner era and
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: was notorious for kicking dirt. I think he could have
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: constructed a building in New York. It's amount of dirty
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: cab out on the field and and he must be
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: rolling his eyes now we would do who can he
• 27:01
  Speaker 7: yell at?
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: Hey? Steve Forbes. If the President called you today and
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: said how am I doing? What would you tell him?
• 27:10
  Speaker 7: I would tell him that one, we've demonstrated extraordinary military
• 27:15
  Speaker 7: capabilities in this war with the Iran, and that he
• 27:23
  Speaker 7: should he should, and the Israelis have done the same,
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: and he should continue to do what they need to
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: do to incapacitate the local militias to keep this government
• 27:37
  Speaker 7: in power. And one of the things I wish the
• 27:40
  Speaker 7: President would do is make a nationwide address behind the
• 27:44
  Speaker 7: desk in the Oval office and up behind a platform
• 27:48
  Speaker 7: and explain what's at stake, why we're doing what it's
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: we have to do. And it may take three days,
• 27:54
  Speaker 7: three weeks, three months, but it has to be done.
• 27:57
  Speaker 7: And you know, the American people, when you explain some
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: thing like that is basically national security. The Mullas were
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: intent on being bad actors, dangerous actors, destructive actors. After all,
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: they've killed two thousand of our people. But the American
• 28:15
  Speaker 7: people will cut him slack. They will put up with
• 28:18
  Speaker 7: the inconveniences as long as they have a context. But
• 28:22
  Speaker 7: unfortunately the impression has been given from the get go
• 28:26
  Speaker 7: this will be sort of a venezuela two point zero Yeah,
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: it may take a few days longer, but it'll be
• 28:31
  Speaker 7: lickety split. And it isn't. And so the American people
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: back you if you explain it to him. Just one
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: thing on that i'millenough to remember. During the Vietnam War,
• 28:43
  Speaker 7: President Richard Nixon takes oval office the wars growing in
• 28:47
  Speaker 7: unpopularity as policy of vietnamizations. They call it growing and unpopularity.
• 28:53
  Speaker 7: And he did a nationwide address and bought time politically
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: to carry out his strategy. Explain it to the American people.
• 29:01
  Speaker 7: Trust the American people, and most of them will give
• 29:04
  Speaker 7: you the time to do if you explain why the
• 29:07
  Speaker 7: job has to be done.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but at that cabinet meeting he explained it for
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: a good half hour. Then he went on the five
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: yesterday and for almost an hour explained himself. But I
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: know what you mean. It's not the same as a
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: formal address. But you know, if he.
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: Didn't know and doing then you know, if you do
• 29:23
  Speaker 7: the formal address and have that context, sober context, then
• 29:26
  Speaker 7: these updates that he gives, you know, when he goes
• 29:29
  Speaker 7: into a rope line or whatever, or on the five,
• 29:33
  Speaker 7: then then then it's seen as part of the mosaic,
• 29:36
  Speaker 7: but people have an understanding in which they can put
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: what he says in context. And so he's got to
• 29:43
  Speaker 7: do himself in the American people a favor like laying
• 29:46
  Speaker 7: it out. The American people then put up with stuff
• 29:50
  Speaker 7: if they know there's a purpose and you've explained why
• 29:53
  Speaker 7: it has to be done.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so hey, Steve Forbes, Moody's has didn't exactly downgrade
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: in New York, but they lowered expectations on New York.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: What does this do any actual damage to us?
• 30:07
  Speaker 7: I think it's just underscores the bad trajectory. New York
• 30:12
  Speaker 7: City has been on for a while, New York State
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: has been on for a while, and it just gives
• 30:16
  Speaker 7: proof that change has to come. And I think Governor
• 30:22
  Speaker 7: Hochel sort of semi recognizes that he can't keep running
• 30:26
  Speaker 7: the state into the ground. But you have a radical
• 30:30
  Speaker 7: city council, you have a radical mayor, neo communists, You've
• 30:34
  Speaker 7: got a legislature that's out of control, and the Democrat
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: parties run by the far left, and so you know,
• 30:41
  Speaker 7: Moody's is not a Moody's is like our umpire and
• 30:47
  Speaker 7: they're calling strikes and where New York and the city
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: and state are striking out. So it's good because I
• 30:54
  Speaker 7: think it helps the change politically the environment where somebody
• 30:58
  Speaker 7: like Bruce Blakeman, who is a Republican candidate for governor,
• 31:03
  Speaker 7: may make a change. And one of the things skeptic
• 31:07
  Speaker 7: should keep in mind is that even though New York
• 31:09
  Speaker 7: is a city, especially but the state's blue. We've seen
• 31:14
  Speaker 7: in states like Vermont or New Hampshire they will elect
• 31:18
  Speaker 7: a Republican if it's just about local issues, not national issues,
• 31:23
  Speaker 7: but local issues. And that's why I think Bruce Blakeman
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: has a real chance to do it because people know
• 31:30
  Speaker 7: the state's in trouble. So this isn't about tax policy
• 31:34
  Speaker 7: in Washington. This is about New York State, and so

  Speaker 1: remember the Bachelorette. They had to throw away the whole season.

  Speaker 1: millions to film the season. It could be twenty million

  Speaker 1: bucks to film the season, and they picked a bachelorette,
• 33:16

• 33:18
  Speaker 1: she's got felony convictions, she's got domestic assault check and
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: all sorts of horrible stuff this video. So they didn't
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: do a background check. They had to throw away the
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: whole season. Now, some of the guys that were on
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: the show apparently they're getting ready to sue ABC over
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: this canceled season, saying their lives were put at risk.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: This is the woman in the video. Is they hitting
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: the guy with a chair. She's like a richie, a
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Prio type. So anyway, we'll talk about that and more
