- 0:23Speaker 1: how you doing good?
- 0:25Speaker 3: Mark? Mark?
- 0:26Speaker 4: Did you ever meet a man called Mars Levy?
- 0:30Speaker 1: Marris Levy? Yeah?
- 0:33Speaker 4: Who was Morrison Roulette Records?
- 0:35Speaker 1: Oh yeah, of course, Mars Levy was the the gangster
- 0:38Speaker 1: owner of Roulette Records, right. Yeah. In fact, if you
- 0:44Speaker 1: talk to all those artists, Tommy James and the Chandell's,
- 0:47Speaker 1: and they'll tell you horror stories about what happened to
- 0:50Speaker 1: their money with Morris Levy. Actually, I think Tommy James
- 0:52Speaker 1: wrote a book about it. Yeah, he remember The Sopranos.
- 0:56Speaker 1: There was a character named Hesh.
- 1:00Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I don't know, but oh.
- 1:02Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the Sopranos. The character named Hesh who was
- 1:04Speaker 1: in the music business, who had a record company that
- 1:07Speaker 1: was actually based on Morris Levy. But what do you
- 1:10Speaker 1: want to say about it?
- 1:12Speaker 4: Well, I was fascinated by some of his name comes
- 1:15Speaker 4: up with, Like you said, about all the money you
- 1:17Speaker 4: stole from with publishing rights. I'm fascinated about the publishing
- 1:22Speaker 4: rights and who steals what, who gets what?
- 1:24Speaker 1: That's interesting. You love stealing and you're fascinated by Why
- 1:30Speaker 1: are you so fascinated that stealing.
- 1:33Speaker 4: Well, I read some of those books and his name
- 1:36Speaker 4: comes up, like with Tommy James, like you like you
- 1:39Speaker 4: said he was a gangster.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Yeah, well there was a lot of mob connection. But
- 1:43Speaker 1: you know, there were a lot of guys back then
- 1:45Speaker 1: because in the fifties, all these artists, you know, all
- 1:47Speaker 1: these groups that came along, they were not very educated.
- 1:50Speaker 1: They certainly knew nothing about the big business or finance,
- 1:53Speaker 1: and he would sign them to ridiculous contracts and they would,
- 1:57Speaker 1: you know, all the money would come in from the
- 2:00Speaker 1: record and a million dollars to come in. They give
- 2:02Speaker 1: the guy four thousand and keep the rest, and he
- 2:04Speaker 1: was thrilled with the four thousand. But you know, in
- 2:07Speaker 1: years later I found out how much they lost. There
- 2:10Speaker 1: was this I don't know if I mentioned names here.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Remember the singer George McCrae Rock Your Baby. It's in
- 2:19Speaker 1: Alan Grubman's book, so I guess I can say it.
- 2:22Speaker 1: But the Groupment's in the head of the record company's
- 2:24Speaker 1: office and McCrae comes in with a gun, points it
- 2:27Speaker 1: right at him. He said, this record made millions. You
- 2:30Speaker 1: took all my money. I never got my money. And
- 2:31Speaker 1: he had the record company guy who reached his pocket
- 2:35Speaker 1: took out keys. He said, you see that Cadillac, that
- 2:37Speaker 1: brand new Cadillac up there here, it's yours. Take it.
- 2:41Speaker 1: That made him happy and he left, and Alan Grubman said, wow,
- 2:45Speaker 1: he goes that's a rent a car. So uh, that's
- 2:49Speaker 1: how bad those guys were. Let's go to Tony in
- 2:51Speaker 1: White Plains. Tony, how you doing? Yeah?
- 2:54Speaker 5: I do, Mark, Mark, Mark. I think with all these
- 2:56Speaker 5: comed he's getting elected. I think it's actually going to
- 2:59Speaker 5: help us in the midterm elections. And the other thing.
- 3:02Speaker 5: I have a good name for the Obama Museum. Yes,
- 3:06Speaker 5: I think they should be called the Flintstone Obama Museum.
- 3:10Speaker 1: All right, keep working on that, Keep working on you
- 3:13Speaker 1: need a lot of tweaking on that idea. Keep working
- 3:15Speaker 1: on that. Let's go to Joe and Elmwood Park. Joe,
- 3:18Speaker 1: how you doing?
- 3:19Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark.
- 3:20Speaker 6: Coming back to Nixon. Nixon told Donald Trump forty years
- 3:23Speaker 6: ago that the media was the enemy, and Rockefeller was
- 3:28Speaker 6: behind that because he wanted to be picked for VP
- 3:31Speaker 6: when spirou Agnew retired.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's where the fake news really got going.
- 3:38Speaker 1: I mean it was always like that. It was always
- 3:40Speaker 1: a liberal slant, but it was under Nixon and especially
- 3:43Speaker 1: Dan ratherback then, who is the White House reporter. He
- 3:46Speaker 1: was the Jim Acosta of his time. That's what really
- 3:49Speaker 1: cranked up that fake news. They felt it was their
- 3:51Speaker 1: obligation to the country to bring down Richard Nixon. But
- 3:56Speaker 1: there was always a big slant. You know, John F.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Kennedy is sneaking around cheating on his wife with Marilyn Monroe.
- 4:04Speaker 1: He's the most famous man in America. She's the biggest
- 4:07Speaker 1: movie star in America. They're having an affair, and apparently
- 4:11Speaker 1: all the press knew about it. They would see them
- 4:14Speaker 1: sneaking around. There was that famous party at the arthurst.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Lettinger's house where like they were over in the corner cuddling.
- 4:20Speaker 1: I mean, it was pretty well known. And if you
- 4:22Speaker 1: ask those guys years later, the reporters, the media, why
- 4:26Speaker 1: did you keep it quiet? Well, you don't understand. It
- 4:29Speaker 1: was a different era back then. It was different back then.
- 4:34Speaker 1: I still think it's because Kennedy had a D after
- 4:36Speaker 1: his name. He was the Democrat. If it had been
- 4:38Speaker 1: Richard Nixon at the time, believe me, they would have exposed.
- 4:41Speaker 1: It would have been the front page the next day
- 4:43Speaker 1: if it was Richard Nixon. Let's go to Fran in Massapequa,
- 4:47Speaker 1: Fran How you doing.
- 4:49Speaker 3: How you doing?
- 4:49Speaker 4: Pole?
- 4:50Speaker 2: Always a pleasure, Thanks for being a peak and a truth.
- 4:53Speaker 2: The bottom line is this, with all of these communists
- 4:56Speaker 2: being voted in, this is the result of I'm just
- 4:59Speaker 2: gonna the last twenty six years of the school children
- 5:03Speaker 2: being indoctrinated. So in two thousand, when you have that
- 5:06Speaker 2: eighth grader in there, or that seventh grader or that
- 5:09Speaker 2: twelve year old, you got to remember twenty years later,
- 5:12Speaker 2: these are the scumbags that are voting. These are the
- 5:14Speaker 2: people that are rioting because they've been told their whole
- 5:17Speaker 2: life that America is no good.
- 5:18Speaker 3: White people are racist and we stole the land. So
- 5:22Speaker 3: if you're told that every single day, this is the
- 5:24Speaker 3: way you're going to act, we are in bad shape.
- 5:27Speaker 3: That the Department of Education is one of the biggest
- 5:30Speaker 3: stamps in.
- 5:30Speaker 1: The whole world, Well you look kind of useless. But
- 5:33Speaker 1: the real problem is you're right, the universities became indoctrination
- 5:37Speaker 1: centers and it was a plot. I got a thirty
- 5:40Speaker 1: forty year plot by a lot of big money of
- 5:42Speaker 1: people and by other countries as China and others pumped
- 5:46Speaker 1: a ton of money into this, and we're able to
- 5:48Speaker 1: change many of our top universities, especially the Ivy League.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Once first they infiltrated the board of trustees, got a
- 5:56Speaker 1: lot of people on those boards. Then they changed the
- 5:58Speaker 1: faculty of very left wing kook faculty. So a million
- 6:02Speaker 1: years ago, when you went to school, you know, you'd
- 6:04Speaker 1: be taught about the great America and history, and you'd
- 6:09Speaker 1: be taught about all the time socialism failed in communism
- 6:12Speaker 1: feeled well, if you've been going to school in the
- 6:13Speaker 1: last thirty forty years, you're being taught about how wonderful
- 6:16Speaker 1: and better socialism is, how evil America is. And that's
- 6:19Speaker 1: the problem, you know. And a lot of this protesting
- 6:21Speaker 1: and the Antifa stuff being funded out of China. You
- 6:25Speaker 1: got this guy Neville Roy Sigmuann. He's like the new Soorros.
- 6:28Speaker 1: He's funding this stuff like crazy. He's operating with the
- 6:31Speaker 1: Chinese government. He operates out of Shanghai, protected by them
- 6:36Speaker 1: his money, and they just keep pouring money. They decided
- 6:39Speaker 1: to bring down America this way from the inside, and
- 6:43Speaker 1: it's been a long, multi decade plot and it seems
- 6:47Speaker 1: to be working. You could undo it. It's going to
- 6:50Speaker 1: take a while, it's gonna take a lot of money.
- 6:52Speaker 1: That's how the way they were able to take over
- 6:54Speaker 1: those boards of trustees in those universities. Somebody starts making
- 6:59Speaker 1: massive donations, next thing you know, they're on the board.
- 7:02Speaker 1: I mean, that's basically what it is. You're the biggest,
- 7:04Speaker 1: biggest donor, given a fortune, they'll put you on the
- 7:07Speaker 1: board of the charity. They'll put you on the board
- 7:09Speaker 1: of the university. And then slowly, you enough of those
- 7:12Speaker 1: people on the board, you can change the whole nature
- 7:15Speaker 1: of it. Hey, when we come back, we'll talk to
- 7:17Speaker 1: the best polster in America, John McLaughlin. He'll have a
- 7:22Speaker 1: lot of intel on the numbers where everybody stands candidates.
- 7:26Speaker 1: We'll get to all of that. It'll be fascinating. Coming
- 7:29Speaker 1: up next on seven to ten, wor
