  Speaker 1: Now on The Voice of New York, it's the Mark
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Simone Show on 710WOR. Hey.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Well, it's back to normal today. Normal weather for the
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: rest of the week. It'll be low 70s. It'll be
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: nice today. It'll be even nicer tomorrow. Back to normal.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: The rain is gone. Yeah, it might get a little
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: on Saturday. But otherwise, it's gone. A lot to get
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: to today. We'll get to midterms. We're about 35 days away.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Not much time for anybody to do much of anything.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Republicans are not getting their messaging together, not making the
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: case strongly enough. But no one knows what's going to happen.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: It's impossible to predict right now. President Trump having AI
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: meetings today with AI heads. The problem is trying to
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: put some control on AI, it could– If you believe
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Bill Gates, get out of control and wipe us all
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: out and kill us in a second. And then there
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: were others that think that it'll never be that bad.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Then you got these crazy politicians, these ridiculous Republicans and Democrats,
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: these old men in the Senate and the Congress calling
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: for a kill switch. If we only had a kill switch.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: There's no such thing as a kill switch. There's no
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: kill switch. You can't have a kill switch. There's one
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: thing Bill Gates was good on on the Sunday show saying,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: anytime you hear anybody say this, put in a kill switch,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: you can be sure they don't know the first thing
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: about the internet or how anything works. And you get
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Senator John Kennedy, you know, that fake southerner with all
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: them cute little things. You hear him talk about AI,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: it sounds absolutely ridiculous. Now the problem is, if AI
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: is that dangerous, if it is the most dangerous weapon
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: on earth and could wipe us all out. Well, then
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: you got to make sure we control it. You got
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: to make sure China doesn't have control of it. Uh,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: we're way ahead in the AI race way ahead. But
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: if we were to slow down or stop, China could
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: get way ahead of us. In fact, China right now
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: is recruiting more AI engineers than we are for some reason,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: paying them more or whatever they have to do. But
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: you got to, this is like a nuclear arms race.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: You got to stay ahead of China in this, uh, Hey,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel Live, you know, this is a show hobbling
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: along on its last legs. It's in the final season.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel Live has come to Brooklyn. He did the
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: first show last night with Mayor Mom Donnie. It's a
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: week of, you know, super left-wing, Trump-hating, all that sort
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: of stuff. Other guests, he's doing it from the Brooklyn
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Academy of Music. Hey, by the way, this Kimmel show
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: is hobbling along. I think they're going to do five
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: days this week. But most weeks they can't afford to
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: even do five days. So they do four or three
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: and then run some reruns. And apparently he's just taken
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: a huge pay cut. The whole budget of the show
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: has been cut by about 25%. So he's had to
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: take a huge pay cut as they hobble along through
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: their final year. But all the left wing, the Trump-hating
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: guests are all coming out for this final week. Paul McCartney,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Billy Crystal, Pete Davidson. Bruce Springsteen, Howard Stern, and Maher
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Shala Ali. Who the hell is that? Does anybody know?
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know. But if you're in the left-wing Jimmy
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Kimmel world, they've put that with these other names. They've
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: put that name with McCartney and Springsteen, Maher Shala Ali.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Whoever the hell that is, nobody knows. Hey, you know,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: President Trump, he does do some great things. Yesterday he
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: made a big announcement. They're going to build the largest
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: steel plant in the history of the world in America.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: It's been a long time since anything like that has happened.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: They're all in China. You know, we lost a lot
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: of our industries to China, a lot of our manufacturing, steel,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: and things that be crucial to us. Let's say there
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: was a war and we were cut off. All of
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: our vital medicine is made overseas in China. All of
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: our steel, you know, we need that kind of stuff
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: in the worst emergency. We need to be able to
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: make it ourselves. So it's going to be in Iowa.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Largest steel plant in American history will be built here.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: It'll create 60,000 new manufacturing jobs. And it's a great thing.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: It's a great thing. And it helps in the midterms, too.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Republicans are defending all four House seats in Iowa. The
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Senate seat is being vacated by Joni Ernst, who's retiring.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Trump won Iowa by 13 points just two years ago,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: but it's close now. It's very close. So that's a
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: big announcement yesterday. Very, very good. Hey, Senator John Kennedy.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: John Kennedy. Now, we'll give him credit for one thing.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: He's pushing a bill that no politician is allowed to
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: name anybody anything after themselves any building anything while they're
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: still alive uh usually have to be dead of course
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: kennedy airport or reagan air i think reagan was still
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: alive when that airport was named wasn't he but uh
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: rfk bridge that sort of stuff uh so kennedy pushing
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: this saying you can't spend public money to promote yourself
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: you can't uh name anything well now actually if you're
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: donald trump this is not a good bill he loves
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: the name Everything after himself. So as long as you're alive,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: you wouldn't be able to name anything after him. Although
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: they've named the Palm Beach Airport after him, but that
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: was Palm Beach in Florida's decision. You know, it's driving
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: the Trump haters crazy. If you fly to Palm Beach,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: it's now the Donald J. Trump International Airport. And it'll
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: say that all over the place. It'll say it on
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: your ticket. Even the airport code is DJT. So believe
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: it or not, some of the crazed Trump haters who
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: are going to Palm Beach are actually flying to Fort
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Lauderdale or to Miami just because they won't go through
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: that airport. Hey, for the midterms, there's a lot of,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: not a lot, but a bunch of Republicans who are
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: turning on Trump as they seek re-election. They're turning on Trump.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: They're bad-mouthing the Iran war. They're distancing themselves from him.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: And there are others now calling for him right now
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: to end the war in Iran. Which brings up a
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: good question. How would you end it? They haven't fired
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: a shot in a month. Nobody's fighting. What is their day?
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: How would you end it? You know, you could say, oh,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: the war is now in its seventh month. Yeah, but
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: it's only been like 12 days out of seven months
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: there's been any war. So if you were to end it,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: who would notice? Nobody's firing. Nobody's fighting. Hey, by the way,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: the Strait of Hormuz... General David Petraeus reporting, and he's
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: got very good intelligence around the world, the Strait of
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Hormuz is even more open than we think. A lot
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: of tankers are coming through the Strait of Hormuz. And
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: it was thought 7 million barrels a day were coming through.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: He believes it's 10 to 11 million barrels a day.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: In fact, he says there was, and his intelligence is
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: very good. He has all kinds of sources there. He
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: said there was one day where they moved 17 million
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: barrels through the Strait of Hormuz, which is pretty much
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: close to the pre-war number. Admiral Cooper, who's the commander
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: of all this, U.S. Central Command, said on September 19th,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: commercial transit, volume of oil, cargo, liquefied natural gas moving
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: through Hormuz over the past two weeks have reached the
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: highest levels in six months. And Petraeus writing a huge
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: piece about this, that Iran is under mounting pressure. The
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: entire economy very, very close to collapse. He reports that
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: they're on the brink, very close to total collapse. The blockade,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: we've been controlling Strait of Hormuz and blockading it has
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: effectively just completely devastated their economy. Treasury Secretary Scott Besson
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: thinks Iran only has a few weeks left of survival
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: before the whole economy just collapses. Now Democrats praying that
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: doesn't happen before the midterms. Hey, the UN stuff, nobody
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: knows what the hell they do at the UN except
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: badmouth Israel, except do their anti-Semitic crap, except tie up
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: every parking space and hook her in New York. Nobody
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: knows what else they do at the UN, but the
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Trump envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, are saying a
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: lot of progress was made. Great progress was made especially
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: with Russia and Ukraine that had very, very lengthy talks.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: He said, when you all sit down in person, the Russians,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: the Ukrainians, it really makes a difference. And they said
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: they're closer than ever to resolving the thing. And when
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: they had these meetings, they also discussed Iran with the
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Iranian officials. And they were joined by the Saudis, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: all were there. They think they made a lot of progress,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: but who knows? Who knows? They also got approval, Witkoff
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: and Kushner, for the $ 3 billion reconstruction plan for the
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Gaza Strip at the Board of Peace Summit. So they
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: claim they got some stuff done. We'll see. We'll see
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: if they really actually got anything done. The UN, of course,
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: a total, total waste of time, doing absolutely nothing for anybody.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: uh hey aoc uh everybody thinks she's running because she
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: seems to be campaigning all over the place it just
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: never stops she was at cornell where they're dealing with
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: this rape problem and their anti-semitism out of control at
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: cornell listen to what happens at the AOC. She's there
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: to speak. Listen to the crowd. I'd like you guys
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: to repeat after me.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: From the river to.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: The sea, Palestine will be free.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: This is what they do at Cornell. That's the ultimate
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: in anti-Semitic wipe out, kill Israel. chant, that river to
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: the sea crap. That's what they do at Cornell. Everybody
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: stay the hell away from Cornell. Besides the rape situation
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: they're dealing with, those allegations, the anti-Semitism is totally, completely
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: out of control there right now. Billy Joel, you know,
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: he's a great motorcycle collector. Remember that store in Oyster Bay?
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: More than a store, that big showroom where he had
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: hundreds of his motorcycles on display. Well, he's getting rid
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: of the whole collection. It's going up for auction. 75
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: motorcycles going up for auction, including Harleys, Yamahas, BMWs. Expected
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: to fetch big bucks in November. According to Christie's Auction House,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: they'll handle the auction. Billy Joel, you know, he's now $ 77, 000. And,
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: you know, he's had some serious medical stuff with the brain.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: He's got a problem with his balance, a brain problem.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: So hopefully he's getting better. But obviously he can't be
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: riding motorcycles anymore. You know, and he was just fine. Remember,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: he was crashing into trees. There was an accident every
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: two weeks. He was running off the road and all that.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: So in his condition, he cannot, cannot, cannot ride a motorcycle.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: So they're all being auctioned off. The auction will be
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: November 20th, 21st, Javits Center. including, ooh, look at this.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: It's 1978 Triumph T140 Bonneville.
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: Ooh.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the hell that is. They all
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: look the same to me. They all look like just
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: the same motorcycle. But this beloved bike was given to
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: Joel by Madison Square Garden for his 150th sold-out show
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: and is going to be auctioned, estimated 15,000. That's all
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: it is, 15,000? Does that sound right? You know, these
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: rare car auctions, they're a million, 800,000, 15,000. Joel's large
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: collection also includes a 1982 Ducati Mike Halwood 900. I
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: don't know what that is. Who the hell knows what
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: all this stuff is? But there's a lot of motorcycle
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: collectors out there who are yelling and screaming that they do. Also,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: a restored 1975 Ducati 750 Sport. Expected to fetch around 35,000.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: That's not a lot for, these are supposed to be
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: such rare things. Before the auction, if you want to
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: just look at this stuff, for about a week, October
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: 8th to 12th, it'll be on display, Rockefeller Center. Christie's
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: has a big showroom in Rockefeller Center. You can go there,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: October 8th to 12th, take a look at this. Proceeds
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: from the sale will go to the Joel Foundation, a
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: nonprofit centered on music education and the arts. I know
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: some guys that are big, big motorcycle collectors. And they'll
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: take you to their showroom and they got like 20
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: of them lined up. And they're explaining each one to you.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: And I don't know if I should tell them that
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: to all of us, they all look the same. Can't
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: tell one from the other. I don't see any difference.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Why don't you just pick the best motorcycle that you
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: like and just ride that. It's like Jay Leno with
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: the 5,000 cars. You ever get up in the morning,
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: you don't know what to wear. What shirt should I wear?
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Which pants should I, you got to make this, imagine
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: going to the garage, you got 5,000 cars. What car
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: should I take today? What a complicated world. Now, in
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: the case of Jay Leno, it's different. You know, he
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: was an auto mechanic, a great auto mechanic before he
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: became a comedian. He was an auto mechanic. He worked
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: for Rolls-Royce. So he understands all this stuff. And I'll
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: bet you, knowing Billy Joel, he knows how to fix
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: a motorcycle, knows all about it. But if you're going
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: to pick a hobby, riding around in motorcycle and all that.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Speaking of legends, Rod Stewart has announced
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: his retirement after six decades on stage. You know, he
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: had some medical troubles and had a canceled show, so
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: he's announced his retirement. Does that mean he's not well
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: enough to... Well, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: a minute. Look at this. The final tour will be
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: next year. Wait a minute. Obviously, if he can tour
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: for another year, he can tour. So this is like
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: a Streisand deal. Remember, every year she'd announce it's the
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: farewell tour. It'll be your last chance to see her.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: She would do that to sell tickets. That way everybody thinks,
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: I got to get it. I got to see this.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: It's going to be her final tour. And then a
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: year later, there'll be another farewell tour. But then everybody said,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: this is it. I got to buy a ticket. Then
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: there'd be another farewell tour. So I think you may
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: be seeing that from Rod Stewart. Anyway, we've got a
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: lot to get to today. We'll get to Good Morning America. Apparently,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: it's going to be a shakeup there. I didn't realize this.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: They all hate each other, all these anchors. They can't
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: be in the same room with each other. They hate
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: each other so much. We'll get to that coming up.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: As I say, the weather will be good today. It'll
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: be a nice day. We went through a hell of
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: a stretch of three or four days of the crappiest
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: weather imaginable. And now, great day today, even nicer tomorrow.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: It's Mark Simone here. Three hours every day, three hours
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: every day, nine to noon every day. Here on 710WOR.
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: No.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: The Mark Simone Show. Nine till noon weekdays. More Mark.
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: 710WOR.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Well, hey, as I mentioned, Jimmy Kimmel in New York
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: for a week doing the show from Brooklyn. Mayor Mamdani
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: the guest last night. So, you know, Kimmel hates, hates
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump. And, hey, before we get to that, let
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: me just point out something. You know, they fired Colbert.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: They threw him the hell off the air. And they
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: replaced it with Byron Allen's Comics Unleashed, which is just
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: a bunch of comedians, Byron Allen talking to them, and
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: it's just very funny comedy. It's not political. It's not
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: even topical. It's just funny stuff. And the show's been
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: on about 20 years. So that's what replaced Colbert. It
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: is crushing Kimmel and Fallon In the big demo, 18
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: to 49, that's what you look for in television, 18
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: to 49, the Byron Allen Show on CBS Comics Unleashed
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: crushing Kimmel and crushing Fallon. Now, Kimmel has his audience,
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: but it's generally older people, very old. It's an old audience.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: And Colbert's audience was very old. That's another reason they
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: wanted to get rid of him. His audience, all 65 plus,
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: it's all angry white liberals. And this Comics Unleashed is
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: doing so well that CBS has decided to give it
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: a primetime special coming up. It's going to be the
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: 20th anniversary of Comics Unleashed, although it's only been on CBS,
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: you know, about six months, but they're going to get
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: a big primetime special. You know, you don't see that
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: for Jimmy Kimmel. Now, so anyway, Mamdani's on with Kimmel,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: and Kimmel hates Trump, hates him so much, but he
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: starts asking Mamdani, how do you have this relationship with him?
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: You know, a lot of these left-wing... angry left-wingers hate
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: that Mom Donnie is so chummy with Trump. And Mom
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Donnie starts to explain it to him. He said, well,
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: obviously we have our differences, but what brings us together,
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: we both love New York City. We're both New Yorkers
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: and we both have a love of New York City.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Now there's a big difference. Mom Donnie's been in New
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: York about 10 minutes. He's 12 years old. He never
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: had a job before. Trump has spent 75 of his
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: 80 years in New York City, and not just living here,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: but he's transformed a lot of New York. You got
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: to remember, Trump has rescued parts of New York. You know,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: this is hard to imagine, but in the late 70s,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: the area around Grand Central Station was just totally decaying.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Grand Central Station was crumbling. It was a mess. The
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: whole area around there was on its way to being
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: just a rundown ghetto. This is hard to believe now.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: You remember back then, Jackie Onassis stepped up trying to
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: form some kind of committee to save Grand Central. They
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: were even thinking of tearing it down. The neighborhood had
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: become so bad. And there was an awful, disgusting, decrepit
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: old hotel. The Commodore next to it. Well, Trump bought
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: that hotel. The area was so run down, he got
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: the Commodore for nothing. This is his first major project
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: in New York. He's a very young guy. He rebuilt
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: it into the Hyatt. This big, shiny, gleaming, magnificent new hotel.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: And it helped turn that whole neighborhood around. All of
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: a sudden, conventions, tourists, everything would come into the Hyatt.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: It just transformed the neighborhood and saved it. And then
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: he went to Columbus Circle. This is hard to believe,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: but in the late 80s, Columbus Circle was a really
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: run-down place. You had this decrepit old New York Coliseum there.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: before the Javits Center. It was the New York Coliseum
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: where they had the convention, but it was a crummy-looking building.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: And in the front of it, all evening, were the
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: prison buses to go to upstate prisons or Rikers Island.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: That's where the families would get those buses to go
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: visit relatives. I mean, it was just a run-down, crappy area.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: So Trump builds the Trump International Hotel and Apartments Condos
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: in Columbus Circle, somehow convinces John George to open his
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: restaurant there, and it transforms the whole neighborhood. All of
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: a sudden, the neighborhood takes off. Next thing you know,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: you've got the Time Warner Center and everything, so he
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: saved that neighborhood. You can go around the city and
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: show examples of this. Hey, when you drive down the
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: West Side Highway, And you see those like 11 unbelievable
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: skyscrapers in a row. Those apartments, those were railroad yards.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: That was Trump that did that. So he's done a
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: lot from New York. So Mamdani revealing to Jimmy Kimmel,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: who was not happy about this, that he texts back
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: and forth with Trump all the time, that they're texting
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: each other left and right. He said often he talks
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: to him about this Sunnyside project to build housing in Queens.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: This is Mamdani's dream to... to build 12,000 affordable houses.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: There's a railroad yard that could cover it up and
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: build it there in Sunnyside, Queens. Now remember, Trump, the
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: whole Trump family, the original business was affordable housing, low-income
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: housing in Brooklyn and Queens. They built probably a couple
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: hundred thousand of those units. So this is a guy
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: who knows exactly how to do that. Mamdani wants to
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: do it, and if he does it, it'll cost $ 3 billion.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: $ 3 billion. If he lets Trump do it, it'll probably
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: cost $ 200 million. So he could save the city a
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: fortune by having Trump's company do it. But, you know,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: he won't do that. But you could see Kimmel getting
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: madder and madder. The thought of Mamdani texting back and
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: forth with Trump all the time. But Trump, everybody has
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: a cell number. Everybody. Everybody in the press. Every member
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: of the media has it. People call him, text him.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: He responds to everybody. He texts hundreds of people a day.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: It's a fascinating subject for Somebody to take a look
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: at how he does this. You remember later they found
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: out Reagan wrote these beautiful handwritten letters to people, three
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: or four of them a day, and they couldn't figure
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: out how does he have time for three or four
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: of these a day? Somebody should look at how does
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Trump have time to text literally, literally two, three hundred
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: people every day back and forth? So Mamdani out there
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: campaigning for who knows what.
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: I'm excited to make the case directly to New Yorkers
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: and also to make it very clear what a Blakeman
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: governorship would look like for a city that cares so
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: deeply about the immigrants who call it home.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: Whoa.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Blakeman government. Oh, my God. Terrible. He'd lock up criminals.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: We'd have a border. The economy would better, better. We'd
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: have drilling, fracking. We'd have nuclear weapons. Your energy bill
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: would drop by about 3,000%. Yeah, that would be awful. Blakeman,
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: of course, always going after Mom Donnie.
• 22:59
  Speaker 7: Instead of getting a free bus ride, the people of
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: New York City got a rate hike. So his promises
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: aren't being upheld by him. I feel that he is untrustworthy.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a different world if you're a Democrat than
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: a Republican. You know, if you're a Republican campaigning and
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: you're Bruce Blakeman... And you say, I'm going to do
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: this and this. And then all the reporters gather. Well,
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: how are you going to do that? How are you
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: going to get that done? Well, here's how I did
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: it in Nassau County. And he explains how he would
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: do it. It's different if you're a Democrat. If your
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: mom's dining and you're campaigning, you yell, free buses for everybody.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: And no reporter asks you anything. They don't say. No
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: reporter ever said to him, wait a minute, you have
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: no control of the buses. That's state control. The MTA
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: controls the buses. You have absolutely no authority. How are
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: you going to do it? No reporter ever asked him
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: during the entire campaign.
• 23:51
  Speaker 8: Never.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: Whatever he promises. We're going to open grocery stores. By
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: the way, it'll cost $ 35 million to open two grocery stores.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: No reporter has ever said to him, you know, we
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: checked and the top grocery stores in the world only
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: cost a million each. Why are yours $ 35 million? No
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: reporters ever asked him that. No reporters ever said, well,
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: why don't you just lift the property tax and on
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: the grocery stores, and that way they could bring the
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: cost down on everything 35%. You wouldn't have to open
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: all this stuff. So nobody ever asked that stuff. You know,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: by the way, everybody's complaining about high gas prices. In
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: New York, they're much higher than everywhere else. Gas is
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: averaging $ 4. 40 a gallon. It's $ 5. 40 in New York. It's
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: always more in New York. And the reason is the
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: state puts all this gas tax and fees on each gallon.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: It's about 75 cents a gas tax a gallon here.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: here in New York, you know, in Texas, they had
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: a great governor Abbott. He has lifted the tax on
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: diesel fuel. It's too expensive there. So he lifted the
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: tax for the next 60 days. No reporter ever asks
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Hochul about this or Mamdani, especially Hochul. Why don't you
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: lift the gas tax for 60 days? If you're so
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: concerned about it, lift the gas tax, remove it for
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: 60 days. They never ask. Anyway, we've got a lot
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: coming up and we'll take some calls too. And just to,
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: A few minutes. Mark Simone here. Nine to noon every day.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Three hours every day on 710WOR.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Live from the WOR LifeVac studios, the Mark Simone Show.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: Hey, we'll take some calls. 800-321-0710 is the number.
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: 800-321-0710.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: 3-2-1-0-7-10. So you got a new problem in New York.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: You know, shoplifting became legal under de Blasio, under Hochul,
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: under Mom Donnie. It's just legal. They won't, under this
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: crazy DA Alvin Bragg, you're not going to get arrested
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: for shoplifting. So it goes on all the time. The
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: result is you go into the drugstore, everything's locked up.
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: You want, although they don't lock up the shampoo. Kind
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: of an insult to shampoo. But you want some aspirin,
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: you want... You want some, I don't know, some allergy medicine, anything.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: It's locked up. You've got to push the button, wait
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: for some angry-looking woman to show up with a key,
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: furious that you bothered her, and she unlocks it for you.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: So it's... And these are professionals. They all look like kids,
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: but they're professionally organized by professional gangs, and they hand
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: them these big, massive trash bags, and, you know, then they...
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: They get these trash bags. They fill them up. If
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: you're under $ 1, 000, they will not arrest you. So they've
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: trained these kids how to run around and throw everything
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: in the bag, steal everything, and they can fill that
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: bag right up to $ 999. So it's been a big problem.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: And you've seen the result that you've got to ring
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: a bell and everything is locked up. So New York
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: City restaurants, this is the new problem. More and more
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: people go into a restaurant, they sit down, they order,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: they eat, they have dinner, and then they run out
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: without paying the check. They're called dine-and-dashers. Well, dine-and-dashers have
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: become a huge problem in New York. It's happening more
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: and more and more. It's growing. Now, the police will
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: not do much of anything because it's a misdemeanor. Let's
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: say it's a $ 100 restaurant loss. It's a misdemeanor. They're
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: not going to do anything. So restaurants don't know what
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: the hell to do. But what they've been doing, these restaurants,
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: is trying to shame the person on social media. It's
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: worked in a few cases. So they, you know, they
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: all have surveillance video. They can get a picture of
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: the people from the surveillance video. And then they'll post
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: it online saying this person, you know, theft of services.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: And they'll try to shame the person on Instagram and
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Facebook and TikTok. And here was one restaurant. They put
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: the the picture up and everything within 10 minutes somebody
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: texted them with the name of the perp and now
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: again if the police aren't going to do anything i
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: don't know what it means once you identify them but
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: at least you can embarrass them online but it's going
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: on all over the place what's the deal with the
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: phones they're not working are they uh oh they're they're
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: working but this isn't working in here but let's go
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: to uh mike calling from florida mike how you doing Mike,
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: are you there? Mike in Florida? I don't know. It
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: sounds like they're not working. Maybe you guys have to
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: pick it up in there. These buttons in here aren't working.
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: Hiya.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Hey, Mike, there you are.
• 28:38
  Speaker 9: Good morning.
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark. Yeah.
• 28:42
  Speaker 10: You've been pointing out how the left likes to create
• 28:45
  Speaker 10: hysterias to get the voters motivated, the most recent one
• 28:49
  Speaker 10: being the AI hysteria. I'd like to remind people that
• 28:54
  Speaker 10: in 1979, and you can just imagine who led these things,
• 28:57
  Speaker 10: Bruce Springsteen had the No Nukes concert, and stupid Jane
• 29:01
  Speaker 10: Fonda had the China Syndrome. And for 50 years since then,
• 29:07
  Speaker 10: or 47 years since then, we've lagged behind nuclear energy.
• 29:11
  Speaker 10: Nuclear energy that would have been a boon to everybody
• 29:16
  Speaker 10: was sidetracked because two idiots created this hysteria that everybody
• 29:20
  Speaker 10: signed on for.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, these left-wing people, they shut down. Andrew Cuomo, one
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: of the ways he really damaged New York is he
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: shut down Indian Point. That's 25% of our electricity.
• 29:31
  Speaker 8: Exactly.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: It tripled everybody's electric bill.
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 29:35
  Speaker 11: Yeah, and there should be a nuclear power plant in
• 29:38
  Speaker 11: every corner by now in the city.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Not crazy.
• 29:43
  Speaker 11: No, but you know what I'm saying? It's, you know,
• 29:45
  Speaker 11: it's safer, far safer than it's ever been. You know,
• 29:48
  Speaker 11: they've changed the technology. But AI is, my point is
• 29:51
  Speaker 11: that they're going to do the same thing to AI.
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: That they did with the nuclear power. You know, they're
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: going to.
• 29:55
  Speaker 11: Make us lag and, you know, we're going to suffer
• 29:58
  Speaker 11: for it.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely right, Mike. Great call. Thanks for calling.
• 30:01
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: They did the same thing, as we've pointed out, with electricity.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Believe it or not, when electricity was invented, same thing happened.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Everybody said, it's going to kill us all. Electricity is
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: going to wipe us out. It's going to be out
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: of control, this thing called electricity. This got so widespread
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: that a woman wrote a book called Frankenstein. about electricity
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: could create a monster that could run around killing people.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: That's where the book Frankenstein comes from. This hysteria about
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: how dangerous electricity was. So it's happened a lot. The
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: only thing with AI, it is different in that it
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: can take action. It can attack a website. It can attack,
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: it can hack into stuff. It is something that you're
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: going to have to figure out how to keep it
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: under control. Anyway, let's go to, you guys have to
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: push it in there, I think. David in Connecticut. David,
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: how are you doing?
• 30:56
  Speaker 9: Good, Mark.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: Good morning. Hey, regarding the motorcycles, I just want to
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: give an example. Each one is completely different. They have
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: different personalities, just like a restaurant does. They all have
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: different atmosphere.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, okay. That explains it. You believe this guy? He
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: thinks they have personalities. What is wrong with you? They
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: have a motorcycle. What do you mean they have personalities?
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: They do.
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: What's the difference between a Ferrari and a Volkswagen? You
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: don't think they have different personalities?
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, one costs 12 cents and the other is
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: like $ 500, 000. One goes a million miles an hour and
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: one goes and barely runs.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: Okay, well, you just made my example. One goes.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Okay, but in that case, I would get rid of
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: the Volkswagen and I'll just drive the Ferrari. Why can't
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: you just pick one motorcycle?
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: I get it.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: No, are you a motorcycle collector?
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: No, I own a couple old cars, but I did
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: have a motorcycle.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: Okay. And then, you know, when we're driving, and you
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: motorcycle people weave in and out, and we can't stand this.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: You drive us all nuts on the road.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: Oh, I agree with that.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: You get injured that way.
• 32:05
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: You get killed.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: All right. Well, good point. What is the personality of
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: a motorcycle, though, besides comfort and speed? What else is there?
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: Some are much lighter. Some are much heavier.
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: Some are designed for the highway. Some are designed for off-road.
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: That's the easiest example.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: Okay. All right. Well, that clears it up. Thanks for calling, David.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: Take care.
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: Take care.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Thanks. I still don't get this. It's a motorcycle. Get
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: a car. You can sit in a nice, comfortable seat.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: You can hear the radio. You can talk on the phone.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: You got a cup holder you can drink. Get a car.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: What are you riding around on a motorcycle for? Let's
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: go to Dennis in New Jersey. Dennis, how you doing? Dennis,
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: are you there?
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: Yes, hi.
• 32:57
  Speaker 9: Dennis from Glen Rock.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 33:00
  Speaker 9: Good morning. Yes. On the restaurants, why don't they ask
• 33:03
  Speaker 9: for the credit card first before they.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, I like that. That's a good idea. Yeah. Okay, well... No,
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: very good point, Dennis. Thanks for calling. Thanks for calling.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: That's what's going to happen because, you know, once they
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: start stealing everything out of the drugstore, now everything's locked up.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: That's going to happen in restaurants because all this dine
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: and dash, you're going to have to pay ahead of time. Now,
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: of course, these guys could have bad credit cards, but
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: they'd have time to check out the credit card. Anyway,

• 35:01
  Speaker 2: then a big meeting. They'll discuss the future of AI.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: The president talking to reporters all day yesterday. He had
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: a terrible attack, terrorist attack on one of our bases,
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: military base we have in the UK. It was stopped.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: It was foiled. in the UK. That's good.
• 35:22
  Speaker 13: The arrest in the UK was fantastic. Working with Britain,
• 35:26
  Speaker 13: it was an amazing job. We had them under investigation.
• 35:31
  Speaker 13: They were looking to do big damage to our port.
• 35:35
  Speaker 13: And working with the British worked out great. We worked
• 35:38
  Speaker 13: with a lot of them. We had them under view
• 35:40
  Speaker 13: for a long time, and we got them.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, since 9-11, we have foiled a lot of terrorist attacks.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: Even here in New York City, the Ray Kelly years,
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: he had quite a terrorist task force. I think he
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: stopped some amazing number, like 15 terrorist plots were foiled.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: But the UK, that was a big one. They were
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: going to go after our military base.
• 36:00
  Speaker 14: I will tell you, I would have said, don't let
• 36:04
  Speaker 14: them have bail, cashless bail. I wonder, is it cashless bail,
• 36:08
  Speaker 14: I guess? That was one of the problems that we had,
• 36:10
  Speaker 14: which started the whole mess of crime yeah.
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: That's the problem they let the terrorists go in the
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: uk cashless bail thank you andrew cuomo for this no
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: bail no jail absolutely ridiculous stuff kathy hokal continuing it
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: mom donnie loving it let all the criminals lose the
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: crazy da alvin brag uh hey don't forget in a
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: few days actually i think it's like 35 days away
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: in the midterms You want to make sure Bruce Blakeman
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: is governor, but you can also get rid of this
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: awful Letitia James and you can get a real prosecutor
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: in there who'll go after actual criminals, not just Donald Trump.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Speaking of which, remember that bug-eyed weirdo, Jack Smith, that
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: special prosecutor? Absolute weirdo, nut job, the guy with the cape.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: He's testifying all day today in front of the Senate
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Judiciary Committee. They're going to be grilling him all day.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: You thought he was bug-eyed before? Wait till you see
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: him in these hearings with his eyes bulging out. He
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: is one weird, crazy guy. You know, when they wanted
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: to go after Donald Trump. Think about what Donald Trump overcame.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: He was in the middle of four trials. He was
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: being tried, criminal charges, in four places. Remember, there was Georgia,
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: there was here in New York. Washington, all these trials.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: You remember they tried to remove him from the ballot.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: They got his name yanked off the ballot in different states.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: So there are four different trials trying to put him
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: in jail. His name yanked off the ballot. He was debanked.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: The banks, every bank canceled him, threw him out. He
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: couldn't even write a check. I mean, this guy went
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: from that to president of the United States. It's an
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: incredibly inspiring story of overcoming difficulties and and succeeding. It's
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: an amazing thing. In fact, there's a new book about
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: it by Victor Davis Hanson, already number one on the
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: New York Times bestseller list. And that's basically what the
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: book is about. How a guy did that went from
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: that kind of a mess to overcoming it and becoming
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: president of the United States, an incredible book. But this
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: Jack Smith, we'll see what they grill him with. It
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: was a ridiculous Ridiculous case. Absolutely ridiculous case. They claim
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: that he had all kinds of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: First of all, every president leaves with classified documents. It's
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: perfectly normal. Biden, when they checked his house, he had 7,000,
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: 8,000 classified documents. It's perfectly normal. Hey, by the way,
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: in the end, remember, Jack Smith raided Mar-a-Lago with hundreds
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: of agents with machine guns. you remember they had actually
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: gotten authorization to use deadly force if they have to.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: This was that very dirty Attorney General Merrick Garland who
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: signed off on this. He gave them authorization to use
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: deadly force in Mar-a-Lago if they needed to. Now, what
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: the hell would you need that for? It's a bunch
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: of old ladies. Have you ever been to Mar-a-Lago? It's
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: a million old yentas. How are you? You don't need
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: deadly force. You need earplugs with that crowd. That's all
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: you need. But he raided every inch. Remember, they went
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: through everything in Mar-a-Lago, every inch of Mar-a-Lago. They checked everything.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: They even went through Melania Trump's underwear drawer. This is true.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Just like Polly Walnuts and the Sopranos. They went through
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: the underwear drawer. They went through Barron's room. In the end,
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: you know what they found? 35 classified documents. That's all
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: they found. 35 of them. And they weren't anything serious.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: They were just, you know, outdated, mild stuff. But that's
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: all they found is 35 classified documents. If you put
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: them in a folder, the folder's one inch thick. So
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: it's one inch of one box. So they kept putting
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: out those pictures of hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of boxes.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: There were no classified documents in any of those boxes.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: I hope this gets cleared up in today's hearings with
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: Jack Smith. Now, I don't know if they can prosecute
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: this guy. They really should. You know, when they wanted
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: to go after Donald Trump and they needed a special counsel, well,
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: in Washington, you probably had 1800 people perfectly qualified, but
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: they went halfway around the world to bring in this guy,
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: Jack Smith, because he's an old hit man for the Democrats.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: He's done this before where he targets a political opponent,
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: a Republican. makes up all kinds of charges. He did
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: that to that Virginia governor, McDonald. Convicted him of like
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: eight things. Every one of them tossed out by the
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: Supreme Court who reprimanded Jack Smith saying he had just
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: fabricated all this nonsense for political purposes. So that's his history.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: When you watch the hearings later, you'll see that he
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: is a bug-eyed, weird, scary guy. I mean, if you
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: saw this guy coming down the street, you'd call 911.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: He's such a bug-eyed weirdo of a guy. Hey, today
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: is postseason baseball begins today. The wild card game, Red Sox, Yankees,
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: actually tonight. So that's the end of summer. We're in
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: the postseason now. The Knicks basketball there at, what do
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: you call it? It's not spring training, fall training. They're
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: training camp, the Knicks. The basketball season begins like in
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: three weeks. Hockey preseason already gone. You're really into the fall.
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: It's really happening, I'm afraid. Hey, over there at ABC News,
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: they got Good Morning America. Now, apparently, they can't believe it.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: They've been number one, Good Morning America, for years. Number
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: one morning show. That Gayle King show, CBS, always in
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: last place, always a disaster. The Today Show, it used
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: to be number one a billion years ago, but it's
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: always Good Morning America. They're number one. Until now. The
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: Today Show beat them for the season. The Today Show
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: beat them. This has got everybody upset over at ABC.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: Good morning, America. Lost to the Today Show. Now, you've
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: got to put a big asterisk on this because, remember,
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: on the Today Show, this was a whole year of
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: the Savannah Guthrie stuff, you know, where their mother vanished.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: So that brought a lot of attention to the Today Show.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: That was a big help. Also, remember, NBC had the
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: Winter Olympics. They had the Super Bowl. That all gave
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: a bounce, ratings bounce, to the Today Show. But they're
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: very upset at ABC over this Good Morning America, and
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: they're thinking about, they're even talking about some changes. Because
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: it was the first time they lost to the Today
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: Show in 15 years. And they point out that the anchors,
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: they got three big anchors, Robin Roberts, Michael Strahan, and
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: George Stephanopoulos, or actually George Slopidopoulos. Now, They're never in
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: the same place. They're never all there for the show.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: It's one or the other. They're never together on the set.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: You got three big anchors who, by the way, are
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: getting 15 million each. And they're not there. Like if
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: one's there, the other one's not there. They're never all there. Why? Well,
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: it turns out behind the scenes, they hate each other.
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: They can't be in the same room. Now, you know,
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: the most important thing on one of these morning shows
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: are the anchors and the chemistry with the anchors. Well,
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: these three hate each other's guts. They'll almost never be
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: on the set together. They'll almost never be in the
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: same studio at the same time. Apparently, Robin Roberts jealous
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: of Michael Strahan. Robin and George Slopidopoulos detest each other.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: They can't stand each other. So they're thinking of making
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: some changes also. These shows don't make the money they
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: used to make. They can't keep paying these people $ 15
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: million a year, especially when they're not winning anymore. So
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: expect to see some changes at Good Morning America. I
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: don't understand the Sunday show. You ever see the Sunday
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: show on ABC? This week with George Stephanopoulos. Then they
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: cut to that old hag Martha Raddatz, or they cut
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: to that Trump hater. What's his name? What's his name?
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: Jonathan Karl. It's those two. Rotating every week. How is
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: it this week with George Stephanopoulos? He's only on once
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: a year. Maybe twice a year he comes on. It's
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: always Jonathan Karl or Martha Redditz. How do they keep
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: his name on this show? Apparently over at ABC, how
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: does he even keep his job? They got no ratings
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: on Sunday. How does he even keep this job? Well, apparently,
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: believe it or not, at Disney, ABC, they think, they
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: still actually think, He's a very powerful, very connected Washington insider.
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: With who? With who? His connection to Bill Clinton, who's
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: in a nursing home now. I mean, all the people
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: he's connected with are way out of power.
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: Who?
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: Rahm Emanuel? Who is he connected to? I don't know,
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: but he's got Disney, ABC fooled. Hey, the Russia-Ukraine war,
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: it's going so badly for Russia. You know, they can't
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: get soldiers. They haven't, you know, They have to send
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: troops to the war. Normally, it's Russian troops. Well, there's
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: no such thing anymore. They've all been wiped out. Now,
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: listen to these numbers. In the Russia-Ukraine war, Moscow has
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: had 1.5 million casualties. That's 1.5 million of their soldiers
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: wiped out on the battlefield, casualties. They've had 500,000 deaths,
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: half a million deaths. You know, the U.S. in all
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: of World War II, we only lost 400,000. 500,000 deaths,
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: 1.5 million casualties. Do you know that Russia suffers 40,000
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: casualties every month? And they just can't cover their losses.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: So they have no troops to send from Russia. So
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: what they're doing is they're recruiting foreigners. They're paying them
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: $ 26, 000 to become cannon fodder in the Ukraine war. And
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: where do you find people who want to do this? Well,
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: they go all over the world. They got a team
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: of influencers, social media types. They're on Facebook, TikTok, Telegram,
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: preying on poor countries with poor, vulnerable people who are
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: either ideologically crazy or they just desperately need money. So
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: that's what Russia's doing now to get soldiers. Now, the
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: problem is when you got this ragtag bunch of people
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: of mercenaries you're paying. They don't fight very well together.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: And that's the other problem. We were so stunned when
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: this war began. We've always thought Russia was an incredible
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: military superpower. We find out they barely have any equipment.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: Their equipment is primitive. They don't even have night vision.
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: They don't fight in formation on a battlefield. They don't
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: have field commanders. They got a lot of troops and
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: a general. They don't have a lieutenant, a sergeant, a colonel.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: They don't have any of that. So That's why they
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: lost so many generals, because if something goes wrong in
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: the battlefield, the general himself has to get out of
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: the tank and ends up getting killed. So they say
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: they're close in these negotiations, especially after UN week. But
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: we'll see how long Russia can last. Hey, this Mamdani,
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: this is quite an interesting scheme he's got. You remember
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: he went after Ken Griffin, the big CEO, stood outside
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: of his $ 250 million apartment and tried to humiliate him. Well, apparently,
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: Mamdani wants to do this with all the big New
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: York CEOs. He got together his social media team, his
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: influencer army, he calls them. He's got 200 of them.
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: And they're about to launch a smear campaign on all
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: the New York CEOs. They're going to bash all the
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: top CEOs. They're targeting certain ones specifically. Pfizer CEO, Albert Borto.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: Not the greatest guy, does Albert Borte. But they're going
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: to go after him. They're going to go after Jeff Blau,
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: who's the CEO of Related Companies. These are the people
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: building Hudson Yards and all this stuff. They're targeting the
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: big CEOs. Now, this will be interesting. If they really
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: start to smear them and go after them, hopefully all
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: of these CEOs who could put together billions of dollars
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: in a second will counterattack, will launch an unbelievable campaign
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: media campaign against Mamdani. Maybe that's what Mamdani's counting on,
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: thinking it'll help him with his crazy base. But this
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: is the most dangerous thing Mamdani has ever attempted. Now,
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: there's a thing called the Partnership of New York. It's
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: a bunch of business leaders. Remember that uh, awful Kathy
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: wild ran this thing. They got a new person running it.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: They threw her the hell out and they got, uh, Jersey,
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: former Jersey city mayor, Steve Fullip, uh, who's inexperienced at
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: this one thing about that. Kathy, well, she knew her
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: way around. She knew how to, you know, play the system,
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: but this guy's new. Apparently he's a major target. They're
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: going to go after. So this is, uh, This could
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: be the most dangerous thing Mamdani has ever attempted. Because
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: most of these CEOs are very careful with him. They
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: don't like him, but they publicly, you know, they're very careful.
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: They know they might need him. You know, if you're
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: building stuff or running a big business, you need okays
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: for things and permits and all that. But this is
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: dangerous for Mamdani. He might wake up that sleeping tiger
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: and it could wipe him out in the end. We hope. Anyway,
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number. 800-321-0710.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: Live from the WOR LifeVac studios. Let's take some calls.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: 800-321-0710 is the number. If you're a new caller, we'd
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: love to.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Hear from you.
• 50:20
  Speaker 5: 800-321-0710.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: 321-0710. Let's go to George in Port Jefferson. George, how
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: are you doing?
• 50:41
  Speaker 15: I'm doing great, Mark. Isn't it ironic that Jack Smith
• 50:44
  Speaker 15: came from the court of the International Criminal Court, which
• 50:48
  Speaker 15: has been debunked? It's really ironic.
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: Well, you can't even debunk it. It was never a
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: real court. It's just a fake, made-up, pretend court.
• 50:56
  Speaker 15: There's something I know about. He went to school, he
• 51:00
  Speaker 15: grew up in Syracuse University, and he's admitted to practice
• 51:04
  Speaker 15: law in New York State, up in the third department.
• 51:07
  Speaker 15: I am very shocked that nobody's taken, people could take
• 51:10
  Speaker 15: grievances against him to try to suspend him.
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: You can't do that. You can't do that in New York.
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: The New York bar is the most left-wing, biased, crazy.
• 51:17
  Speaker 10: No, no, no.
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: Mark, please stop.
• 51:19
  Speaker 15: This is up, it's the bar that he was admitted to.
• 51:21
  Speaker 15: That's up in, he was born in, he's admitted in
• 51:25
  Speaker 15: the third department. If it was in the first department,
• 51:27
  Speaker 15: you'd be right.
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 51:28
  Speaker 15: But I cannot believe, somebody should try to go after him.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: Well, you started. George, thanks for calling. Let's go to
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: Jan in Asbury.
• 51:38
  Speaker 9: Jan?
• 51:40
  Speaker 12: Mark, can you hear me?
• 51:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: Where's Asbury Park? Is that what you mean?
• 51:45
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I live across from the Stone Pony.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Oh, God, the noise. The Stone Pony. The mess that
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: comes out of there every night.
• 51:52
  Speaker 12: Well, I'm just saying, it's a big mess there.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: Okay, if you had a choice between across the street,
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: you could either have a data center or the Stone Pony.
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: Which would make less noise?
• 52:03
  Speaker 16: Data center.
• 52:04
  Speaker 12: I'd want a data center. Anyway, you're so healing. You're
• 52:08
  Speaker 12: such a medicine. I just, you know, because you know stuff.
• 52:11
  Speaker 12: And you know the good guys and the bad guys.
• 52:13
  Speaker 12: You're smart. You know what's going on.
• 52:16
  Speaker 16: I'm upset with some of these conservatives, so to speak,
• 52:22
  Speaker 16: or people that were like right wing that you think
• 52:24
  Speaker 16: newscasters and stuff that are like.
• 52:26
  Speaker 12: Oh, yeah, Trump now.
• 52:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
• 52:28
  Speaker 12: But before, you know, he lost the election. They were
• 52:31
  Speaker 12: all dishing him like they were they were not like
• 52:33
  Speaker 12: being so pro Trump. And this is the right I'm
• 52:36
  Speaker 12: talking about. And I'm seeing them start to do that again.
• 52:39
  Speaker 12: And I think they're just so stupid. They're, like, putting
• 52:42
  Speaker 12: their own opinions on how to do the war, how
• 52:44
  Speaker 12: to do that. You know, they don't know what's going on.
• 52:47
  Speaker 12: And they're starting to turn against them again. I won't
• 52:49
  Speaker 12: say the names.
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, say the names. Say whoever you want. What names?
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: Who are you talking about?
• 52:54
  Speaker 12: Well, one guy's a Newsmax, Rob Schmidt, of all people,
• 52:58
  Speaker 12: like was kind of dissing Trump yesterday.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what about Rob Schmidt? Newsmax is very good. I
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: like that Greg Kelly show. Rob Schmidt, he's pretty in
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: the middle. You know, he goes both ways. That's the
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: way he should be. He shouldn't be.
• 53:09
  Speaker 12: But they're like, I don't think they should be that.
• 53:12
  Speaker 12: They need to be more patient. That gets me mad.
• 53:14
  Speaker 12: How about Karl Rove? I knew he was a bad guy.
• 53:18
  Speaker 5: He's not a bad guy.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: He's just a, he's a Bush guy. He loves Bush.
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: You got to remember.
• 53:22
  Speaker 12: Okay, but he's, He's voting for Tallarico.
• 53:24
  Speaker 10: All right.
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: But you got to remember. Well, thanks for calling, though.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: You got to remember for a guy like Karl Rove,
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: he was a Bush guy. That was his whole world,
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: the Bush world. Remember, when Trump came along, it was
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: Jeb Bush. It was his turn to continue the Bush dynasty.
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: Jeb Bush was going to be the president. This Donald
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Trump came out of nowhere and wiped out the whole
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: Bush dynasty. dynasty. He annihilated Jeb Bush in those debates,
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: just wiped the floor with him. And that was the
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: end of the Bush dynasty. So for Karl Rove, it
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: had to be very upsetting. Karl Rove was on his
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: way back to being in the White House, back to
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: being the most powerful guy in the White House, chief
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: of staff to the president. And then Trump wiped it out.
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: So if you're Karl Rove, you got to be really
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: mad at Donald Trump. You know, it's the same Hillary Clinton.
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: This was her destiny to be president. She just always,
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: always assumed she'd be the president. And all of a sudden,
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: the total rookie, Donald Trump, shows up and just wipes
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: her out, completely destroys her. Anyway, let's go to, is
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: it Robert on line one? Robert, how you doing?
• 54:36
  Speaker 5: Hey, how are you, Mark?
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: Good.
• 54:39
  Speaker 9: Was that a rumor?
• 54:41
  Speaker 5: Was that a rumor about us knocking out that Chinese
• 54:43
  Speaker 5: satellite that was feeding information about Ukraine?
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: No, that happened. No, we shot down a Chinese satellite,
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: spy satellite, that was doing something for Iran. Wasn't it
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: helping Iran?
• 54:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought it was. Yeah, yeah, you're right.
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: It was Iran.
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: I just want to see if that.
• 55:00
  Speaker 5: Was a rumor or if that had any validity.
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: No, that's absolutely true. There was a Chinese spy satellite
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: giving secret information to Iran that We blew it out
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: of the sky, out of outer space. Just blew up
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: the satellite.
• 55:14
  Speaker 5: Another incredible achievement by Donald J.
• 55:16
  Speaker 9: Trump.
• 55:16
  Speaker 5: I thank you, sir.
• 55:17
  Speaker 14: All right.
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: Thanks for calling. Yeah, you know, you got to give
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: this Pete Hegseth credit. I know he looks a little
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: goofy and he doesn't look like a top military, you know,
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: crusty sort of an old military guy. But since he's
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: been in there, you know, that bombing raid to take
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: out Iran's nuclear plants, you know, where those planes had
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: to stay in the air for like 38 hours. That
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: was an incredible accomplishment. You remember when they captured Maduro
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: in his bedroom, the leader of the country, they actually
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: seized him out of his bedroom in the middle of
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: the night. That was an incredible military operation. Knocking out
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: that Chinese spy satellite just as it was spying on him.
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: Incredible stuff. So you might think this exit looks a
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: little goofy, but he has accomplished some of the greatest
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: military operations imaginable. Anyway, let's go to, oh, did she
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: hang up? Pam in Mississippi, what happened to you? It
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: might be our phones. Anyway, we'll take some calls a
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: little later on. Hey, and coming up a little later on,
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: we'll get to the Tonight Show. Johnny Carson. You know,
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: it's the 72nd anniversary. The Tonight Show was created this week,
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: 72 years ago. But we'll take a look at it
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: in the next hour. This will be pretty interesting. So
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: if you're a big Carson late night Tonight Show fan, Well,
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: don't go away because we're going to talk about that
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: in the next hour. And the brilliant columnist, Michael Goodwin,
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: the best columnist in America. Normally he's with us on Mondays,
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: but he had to move to Tuesday. So we'll talk
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: to him next on 710WOR. Mark Simone.
• 56:52
  Speaker 16: Mr.
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: New York.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: Now three hours every weekday from 9 till noon on 710WOR.
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: Well, with us right now, the best columnist in America,
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: Michael Goodwin. You can read his column every Sunday and
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: every Wednesday in the New York Post. And all of
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: his columns are up on the New York Post website.
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: And he's with us now. Michael Goodwin, how you doing?
• 57:16
  Speaker 9: Okay, good morning, Mark.
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: Hey, I love this column about Kathy Hochul, big sister
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: to Mom Donnie. What exactly is she trying to accomplish
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: with this Mom Donnie relationship she has?
• 57:27
  Speaker 9: Yeah, the big sis. Yeah. Look, it's a simple attempt
• 57:33
  Speaker 9: to curry favor.
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: With his voters.
• 57:36
  Speaker 9: And he's a representative of a whole generation of voters.
• 57:42
  Speaker 9: That's the way she looks at it. And, of course,
• 57:46
  Speaker 9: she's not popular among them, except to the extent that
• 57:51
  Speaker 9: she does what he wants. And then he says nice
• 57:55
  Speaker 9: things about her and appears at her and smiles. And
• 58:00
  Speaker 9: I think that's what she's looking for. She's looking for
• 58:03
  Speaker 9: help in the election. She's obviously somewhat concerned about Bruce
• 58:09
  Speaker 9: Blinken's campaign. And right now, I think she's acting like
• 58:15
  Speaker 9: all she has to do is keep Mamdani happy. And
• 58:20
  Speaker 9: then everything will fall in place next month in the
• 58:23
  Speaker 9: November election.
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, what is she getting wrong? It's not that simple,
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: is it? That Mamdani crowd might just see right through her,
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: won't they?
• 58:33
  Speaker 5: Well, that's it.
• 58:34
  Speaker 9: I mean, they don't want the half-in, half-out Democrats. They
• 58:38
  Speaker 9: made that clear with their insurgency attacks against the party.
• 58:44
  Speaker 9: And to them, Hochul is that party. She's that party's
• 58:49
  Speaker 9: chief executive in New York. I believe they are right
• 58:53
  Speaker 9: about that. That is where her instincts are. But they
• 58:57
  Speaker 9: have converted her, converted her at least 50% to go
• 59:02
  Speaker 9: with him, that be a tear tax. All the billions
• 59:06
  Speaker 9: of dollars that she funneled to the Mamdani. operation in
• 59:11
  Speaker 9: the city. So she's doing whatever she can to curry favor.
• 59:17
  Speaker 9: And last week, she attacked Benjamin Netanyahu for criticizing Mamdani.
• 59:24
  Speaker 9: And I find it very interesting, she never said whether
• 59:29
  Speaker 9: she agrees with Mamdani that Israel is a genocide state,
• 59:35
  Speaker 9: but she attacked Netanyahu for attacking Mamdani over that and
• 59:41
  Speaker 9: other things he has said and done. So it's another
• 59:44
  Speaker 9: example of Hochul wanting to rescue Mamdani without going full
• 59:50
  Speaker 9: in on his side. I just think there's kind of half-in,
• 59:55
  Speaker 9: half-out posture there. can't work. And I hope it doesn't
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 9: work because I think it's very bad for the state
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 9: and the city. Yeah.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: So Bruce Blakeman, we love him. He's a great candidate.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 2: He'd be a phenomenal governor. What can he do? He's
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: only got like 35 days till this election. She's only
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: agreed to one debate. What can he do to really
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: go after her? Yeah.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 9: I don't think the debate is going to be the
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 9: deciding factor here. I think he's got to continue to
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 9: wrap up and increase his linkage of Hochul and Mamdani.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 9: He's done some of that, but I think he's done
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 9: it primarily upstate, where Mamdani is very unpopular. And so
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 9: that should help drive out, turn out the Republican votes,
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 9: the anti-Hochul votes. But the real key to this is
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 9: in New York City. The five boroughs, I should say
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 9: the four boroughs, not including Staten Island, always provide the
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 9: Democratic margin and have for the last 20 years. George
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 9: Pataki in 2002 was the last Republican to win a
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 9: statewide race. And so it's always because of the margin
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 9: in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, And the Bronx, that's where the
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 9: Democrats run up the score. So Blakeman has to get
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 9: more turnout and more votes in New York City if
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 9: he has any hope. And I think, as I have written, Mark,
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 9: a million people voted against Mamdani. If Blakeman could get
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 9: even half of those to vote for him.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 9: Then he would, I think, be in a very good
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 9: position overall.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: You know, obviously the media, very slanted, very biased, they're
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: always painting it as the Republicans are in real trouble,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: Democrats are going to coast. You think there's like an
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: undercurrent there that's really going to come out and back
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: Blakeman and other Republicans that the polls aren't measuring?
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 9: Well, I think the best sign that I've seen in
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 9: the polls for Blakeman is that he had a significant
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 9: lead in the most recent poll among independents. And again,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 9: bear in mind to remember that there are more independents
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 9: in New York State than there are Republicans. There are
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 9: far more Democrats. Democrats outnumber Republicans about two to one
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 9: in the state. But there are more and there are Republicans.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 9: So he needs a big chunk of independent voters to
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 9: come out for him. And he needs, of course, Republican
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 9: voters to turn out in big numbers. If he can
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 9: do that, then I think he has a shot. But
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 9: I'm not sure. It's hard to measure each group differently,
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 9: you know, in one poll. So we haven't seen the polls.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 9: And all these polls have been done He's never, to
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 9: my knowledge, had the lead. So I think the last
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 9: one had him at nine points behind. I think he's
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 9: got to close that gap to inspire those potential voters
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 9: for him to come out. Because if people think the
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 9: election is already over, they're not going to vote. So
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 9: he's running out of time to light the spark.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: Hey, Michael Gooden, we haven't talked to you since UN week. Netanyahu,
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: powerful speech by Netanyahu, by Trump. What do you think?
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 2: Was anything accomplished with all of that?
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 9: You know, I think that speech, Mark, was for the UN,
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 9: of course, but it was primarily for Israeli voters. You know,
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 9: Netanyahu's got an election coming up even before the American election.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 9: It's in, I think, two, two and a half weeks,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 9: the Israeli election. I don't believe there's early voting or
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 9: anything like that. I think it's a single day. So
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 9: it would be interesting. He's got kind of a coalition
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 9: running against him, but it's still very much in flux.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 9: And the winner, in order to be the winner, has
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 9: to get a majority vote. of the seats, the parliamentary seats,
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 9: the Knesset seats. That's how the prime minister becomes the
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 9: prime minister, is if your party can get a majority
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 9: of the legislative seats. That's the way it is in
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 9: all these parliamentarian systems. And he has a very narrow
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 9: majority and has, by stitching together several parties, he'll have
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 9: to do that again to keep the jobs.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: All right, well, Michael Goodwin, great stuff. Love the columns.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: Any idea what you're writing about tomorrow? Can you give
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: us a little preview?
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 9: Yes. The Pulitzer has a fascinating piece today on Mondani's
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 9: social media hit squad going to go after individual business
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 9: leaders in New York City. I think it's terrible. It's terrible.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 9: I mean, it really will drive businesses out of the city.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 9: it's unbelievable for a mayor to do something like this.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 2: But he's also going to run a smear campaign against
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: the biggest, most powerful CEOs in New York. You think
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: he's making it? Doesn't he realize what he's going to set?
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: These guys could come after him with billions of dollars.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: Has he really thought about it?
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 9: I don't think he's worried about the politics of it
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 9: just yet. I think this is, he's running to be
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 9: the champion of, Of the far left, he's got three
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 9: and a half years to continue in the office. But
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 9: I think if he can get a few scouts this way,
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 9: it'll make him more popular among the rabid set that
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 9: follows him now.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: Oh, interesting.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 2: I can't wait to read that column.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 9: Again, how does Hochul react to this, right?
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, interesting. Well, this is going to be a great
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: column tomorrow. You can read Michael Goodwin every Sunday, every
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: Wednesday in the New York Post. Michael Goodwin, thanks for

  Speaker 2: even a bonus segment every weekend. And we'll be back
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: after the news. Remember, it's 9 to noon every day,
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: three hours every day. Back after the news, 710WOR. Welcome
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: back to the Mark Simone Show.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: Live from the WOR LifeVac studio.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 2: Well, it's the third and final hour of the show.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: A lot to get to this hour. So, you know,
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: the election, the midterms, the governor's race here, and all
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: this stuff is only like 35 days away. It's coming
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 2: up pretty fast. pretty fast. Kathy Hochul has agreed to
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: only one debate. This is unusual. Just one debate. She's
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: turned down all the major debates. She's refused to debate
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 2: on Channel 2, Channel 4, Channel 5, Channel 7. She's
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: agreed to one. New York One, which has 12 viewers
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: and is the most biased, slanted left-wing place imaginable. The
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: debate moderator will be the extremely biased left-wing Errol Lewis.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: That's all she's agreed to. But we'll see what happens
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: in that debate. Something could go viral. You never know.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: Around the country, a lot of these Republican candidates suddenly
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: trying to distance themselves from Donald Trump, which might be
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: a mistake. But one thing that GOP has, although it's
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: getting close, whatever they got, they should be using right now.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: But they do have a ton of money. The RNC
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: has about $ 250 million in cash. The DNC has about
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 2: $ 10 million. So the RNC does have tremendous resources. And
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: they are showing up in certain states. National Republican Senatorial
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: Committee's latest round of spending will be $ 46 million. They're
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 2: putting $ 10 million into Iowa, $ 11 million into Ohio, $ 2
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: million into Alaska, $ 8 million into North Carolina. North Carolina
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 2: is the toughest one. These other states, Ohio, Iowa, they
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 2: shouldn't have this kind of trouble, but Iowa looks tied.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: Sherrod Brown in Ohio has a four-point lead. This shouldn't
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 2: be going on. Michigan is close. That shouldn't be going on.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: You got Mamdani and crazy left-wing radical Chuck Schumer raising
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 2: money for that horrible, awful, anti-Semitic Michigan candidate.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Schumer raising money for it, so President Trump even
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 2: has an ad he's running all over the place about
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: what he's done, what Republicans have done, but apparently the
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 2: government paid for it. So everybody's up in arms. Perfectly legal.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: It's been done by other presidents. It's one thing Democrats forget,
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 2: one thing the media ignores. When they go after Trump
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 2: for something, they never mentioned that every other president's done
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: exactly the same thing. But Schumer put on his, remember
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 2: he used to have the Ben Franklin glasses? Now he's
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: got those big, huge Swifty Lazar glasses, and he reads
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: his little index cards and tries to sound mad.
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 17: I'm calling on the administration to reveal which agency aired
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 17: this illegal propaganda, on whose orders, and exactly at what
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 17: cost to the American taxpayer.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: Well, that's it. He's calling on them. Good. This Schumer,
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: I love just listening to clips of him. It doesn't
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 2: matter what he's saying. You can tell he's not even listening.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 2: You could tell he never saw these words before in
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: his life. Somebody wrote it out on an index card
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 2: and he's reading it.
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 17: We have a population that is not reproducing it on
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 17: its own with the same level that it used to.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 17: The only way we're going to have a great future
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 17: in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants, the
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 17: dreamers and all of them.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: So he says we're not reproducing. The only way we
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: can keep the country going is illegals coming in. We're
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 2: not reproducing. Is he crazy? Is he crazy? How many
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 2: times have you been on an airplane in a restaurant
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: and you hear screaming babies everywhere? How many times have
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: you tried to walk down the street and there's somebody
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 2: with a stroller with a baby? Obviously, we're reproducing. Check
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: the maternity wards. Plenty of babies are being born all
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 2: the time. Are you a guy? Every woman you know
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: is going to Pilates. Every time you talk to a woman,
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: I have to go to Pilates tomorrow. I get up early.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: I got Pilates. She's leaving me with Pilates. No guy
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 2: knows what the hell this is, this Pilates.
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 2: It's something where they stretch and move and do something.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 2: But according to this, more and more men are taking
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 2: up Pilates. Oh, I don't mean a couple of guys
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 2: who used to do it just to meet women. No,
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: I mean they're like seriously taking it. But they want
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 2: their own classes. They do not want to be in
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 2: a room full of women doing Pilates. One of the
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 2: problems is the women are pretty damn good at it. Guys,
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 2: we don't know what the hell we're doing with this Pilates.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 2: So there's a lot. It's a big thing now. Men's
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: Pilates classes. You know, this whole thing was founded by
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: a guy named Joseph Pilates. That's where the name comes from.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: You know, people like to think, oh, Pilates, it's like
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 2: an ancient Greek, goes back to the Stone Age. No,
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 2: it's a guy named Joe Pilates who invented this. Actually,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: it was after World War II. He was in World War, oh, no, wait,
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: World War I. So it's pretty old. It's over 100
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 2: years old. but he came up with this routine to
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 2: repair his own health, strengthen wounded soldiers. But, you know,
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 2: if you were in World War I, there was a guy,
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 2: somebody could say to you, hey, you know my friend
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 2: Joe Pilates? Hey, Joe, how are you? And his uniform
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 2: said Pilates on it. So he didn't envision one day
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: it would be like the favorite thing for women. It's
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: good for you, though. It's good, it's stretching, it's doing
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 2: all kinds of things for you. So this new study
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 2: shows that pizza-wise... This is not a good study. This
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 2: is not Dave Portnoy. He's the most accurate when it
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: comes to where the best pizza is. This is based
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: on Google customer ratings. And who knows where those come from?
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: And sanitation scores. In other words, who produces the most garbage?
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: In other words, who's the busiest pizza place? Manhattan wins
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 2: easily with 18% of the country's best pizza joints. Oh, no, actually,
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 2: that's New York City. New York City has 18% of
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 2: the country's best. Within New York City, Manhattan wins with 60%
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: of the top-rated pizza joints.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 8: 60%.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 2: Now, there's some good pizza in Queens. Some of the
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: greatest pizza in the world is in Brooklyn, DeFara, and
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: some of those places. The best pizza in the world
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: in Manhattan, you got John's of Bleeker Street, and you got, well,
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 2: just watch Portnoy. There's a lot of the top pizza
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 2: in the world in Manhattan. Number two, I guess, would
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 2: be New Haven, Frank Pepe's, Sally's, and a couple of
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: those others. Connecticut is an amazingly strong pizza place. For
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 2: sleepy little Connecticut, not known for food, it's got the Colony,
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 2: Frank Pepe's, Sally's, and a few others. I mean, amazing,
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: amazing amount of great pizza there.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 2: These AI centers, these data centers, nobody wants them. You
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: know how much money these data centers have? These companies,
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 2: do you know how much money they have to throw around?
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 2: So they want to build one in Hazel Township in Pennsylvania.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 2: The whole town is opposed to it, blocking it. So
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: they sent out 11,000 letters to everybody in town. They
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 2: sent a letter saying, we'll give you $ 10, 000 if you
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: vote for the data center.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 4: 10,000 a person.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 2: Now, how much does that cost them? $ 45 million. But
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 2: that's nothing to them. $ 45 million just to buy some boats.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 2: The company also plans to make $ 120 million in payments
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: to support the town for local police, all that sort
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: of stuff. Now, if you're going to get a check
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 2: for $ 10, 000 from the data center company, you know, average
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: income there is $ 60, 000. That's a lot of money. You
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: could pay your rent for a year. Could take care
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: of your groceries and all kinds of things for a
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 2: lot longer. So we'll see what happens. These data centers
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 2: slowly solving the problem, the electricity problem they can fix.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: They can generate all their own electricity. The water problem
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: they fixed. They can recycle water. It's just the noise
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: from those turbines. The answer to that is probably coming
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: from Elon Musk. He's building his own data centers, but
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 2: he's also going to build his own turbines. He'll figure
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: out a way to make those things quiet. And once
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: that's done, that should end the opposition to the data centers.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 2: And pretty amazing. Now, that's a big issue. That's a
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: big issue. You know, these crazy left-wingers, a lot of
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: the left, the Jimmy Kimmel crowd, a lot of the
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 2: MSNBC crowd, the CNN crowd, they're generally angry old people.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: They're all old. They're old left-wingers. They're older. They don't
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 2: work so much. They got a lot of free time.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: They're watching MSNBC and CNN and reading the New York Times.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 2: They're all well over 60 and they're all angry. And
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: I was listening to Jimmy Fallon last night. It's a
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 2: great show every night, nine to midnight. He was pointing
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 2: out that these angry old white liberals, nothing to do
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 2: all day except get mad. You know, they're the ones
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 2: screaming about the ballroom and they're the ones that can't
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 2: stop talking about the reflecting pool and He said they
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: probably don't realize that real Americans, normal people that are
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 2: working their ass off every day trying to pay the bills,
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 2: they're working in the factory, they're working two jobs, they're
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: raising kids, they're busy. They don't care about the pool,
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: the ballroom. It's not an issue for them. They don't
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: think about it for a second. They got other things
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 2: to worry about. Affordability, yeah, that can be a problem.
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 2: But that's kind of a democratic problem, too. If you
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 2: look at these studies, the number one expense a lot
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 2: of people have are their taxes. That's Democrats trying to
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 2: tax you to death. That's the Hokuls and the Mamdanis.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: And health care is a big issue. It's tough getting
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 2: the right health care, getting the right medical coverage. Well,
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 2: that's a Democratic problem because what's the system we're all
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 2: under now? Obamacare. So if there's any problems with medical care, well,
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: thank Obamacare. Remember, he had the White House, the House,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: the Senate. He could pass anything he wanted. for a
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 2: medical program, and that's what he passed. So if it's
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 2: not working well, but as Jimmy pointed out, that's what
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 2: the Democrats do. They create a huge problem, and then
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: they campaign as the guys that can solve it. If
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 2: you're on Instagram and they're trying to sell you this
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 2: new Instagram Plus, for $ 4 a month, an extra $ 4
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: a month, you could get Instagram Plus.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: Does it give you? Well, your story, you know, when
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 2: you post an Instagram story, it only stays up 24 hours.
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 2: You could make it stay up longer. I don't know
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 2: if anybody cares about that. The new story rewatch count
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 2: lets you see how many times your story was replayed.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: who exactly looked at it and didn't check like on it.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: You can see if somebody watched it twice. If you're
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 2: a stalker, this could be valuable. There are people that,
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 2: you know, the woman they're interested in, they keep checking
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 2: to see, did she look at my story? Did she
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 2: view my... Outside of that, I don't see why anybody
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: wants to pay $ 4 a month for this. It also
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 2: provides timestamps for when someone first viewed a story. Updating
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 2: if they return to re-watch it. You've got to be
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 2: a little crazy if you need this information. But others
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 2: are warning, be careful. This charging Instagram is free. It's
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 2: $ 4 a month for these features. They think it might
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 2: be these social media companies testing out, trying to start
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 2: charging you. No more free social media. Meta and these
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: other companies, that might be the future they're looking at.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: No more free Instagram. No more free TikTok. No more
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: free Facebook. You know, there are a lot of people
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 2: that spend the whole day on social media. If it's
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: that vital to you, if you're going to devote that
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 2: much of your life to it, maybe they should be
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 2: charging you for it. If they got you that hooked,
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: why not charge you? So look for that to be
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 2: coming in the future. A lot of 2028 candidates. Remember
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: Rahm Emanuel? This guy is trying so hard to be
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: a 2028 candidate. Problem with Rahm Emanuel. He looks like
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 2: a thuggish kind of dirty political operative from years ago.
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: Big part of the Clinton administration. Now, you might say, well,
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 2: he got elected mayor of Chicago. That's different. That's the
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 2: real thuggish, creepy guys get elected mayor of Chicago. Richard Daley,
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 2: the greatest example. But he wants to be a 2028 candidate.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: He's a little outdated. He looks like a rough, tough, old,
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 2: old school politician. That's not popular with Democrats nowadays. He
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 2: was asked, what separates you from the other Dems? He said,
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 2: three things. And they said, oh, everybody's listening. What's the
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 2: three things? He said, candor. Nobody cares about that. Authenticity. Again,
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 2: dirty old political operative. I wouldn't. used those as great
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 2: examples of authenticity. He said the other one is strength.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know what that means. In his case, it
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 2: means he was really a nasty guy. Remember they used
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 2: to call him Dead Fish Rom? He's the guy that
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 2: sent a dead fish to somebody. So I think his
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 2: time has really passed. He said, he gives you one
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: of those. Anytime you hear this kind of speech, you
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 2: know that they have nothing to run on. He said,
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: because if elected, I know what to do on day one. Remember,
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton tried that. A lot of people have nothing
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: to sell you. Arguing, I'll be ready on day one. No,
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 2: who cares? Let's say you're not ready till day five.
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 2: We could live with that. Ready on day one. He said, no,
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to tell you what you like to hear.
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you what you need to know.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 2: I'll make the tough decisions. Again, very, very outdated guy. 2028,
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 2: Kamala Harris, believe it or not, still in the lead.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: with 25% among Democratic voters still in the lead. Hey,
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls next. We'll see if the phones work.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: We'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number. If
• 1:22:37

  Speaker 2: What does that mean? That's just his name.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 18: That I'm calling him.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 2: Calling him basically a penis? Is that what you mean?
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 18: Yes, yeah.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised at you, Bonnie. You seem like such a
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 2: classy woman. The language you use. What is wrong with you?
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 7: I know it.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 18: I could think of lots of names for him. He
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 18: hates us. I hate him back. But I want your opinion.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 5: About him, Mark.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 2: You seem like a nice, sweet woman. You've got to
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 2: stop obsessing about peckers. What is it with you and
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 2: this pecker stuff?
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 18: Okay, I'm going to hang up.
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 2: There is a pecker, right?
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 18: Tell me what you think about him, Mark.
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 2: David Pecker, right?
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 2: I can promise you I will not be thinking about
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 2: it for one second. Anyway, thanks for calling.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 18: Okay, bye.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right. It's the last thing I expected to
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 2: come out of her. In Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Let's go to
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 2: John in Ronkonkoma. John, how are you doing?
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 9: I'm doing great. I've got to follow that call up.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 9: Anyway, so no mention of Long Island pizza and the
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 9: best pizza.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 2: You know, nobody can figure out why. You've got the
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 2: greatest restaurants in Long Island. You don't have good pizza
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 2: in Long Island. Seriously, you don't have good pizza. David
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 2: Portnoy has talked about this for years.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 9: You don't have good pizza?
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 5: Come on.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 2: You've got good pizza.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 4: You ever go to Little Vincent's?
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 2: Little Vincent's is fantastic. Oh, please.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 5: Remember, Mark, it's on Long Island.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 9: Get it right, would you please?
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 2: You heard Billy Joel. You can say either one. You
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 2: can say in Long Island, on Long Island. Little Vincent's is.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 9: Yeah, and I know Billy Joel is off Long Island now, but.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 2: You know. Little Vincent's is famous for one thing. They
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 2: have this pizza where it's all cooked and done, and
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 2: then they throw cold cheese on top of it. Very
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 2: cold cheese.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 9: Right, yeah.
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 2: That's what they're famous for. As Portnoy said, dumb, gimmicky.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 2: You know why that started, that cold pizza, throwing the
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 2: cold cheese on it?
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 9: I don't know, get rid of the cheese that they
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 9: got to get rid of?
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 2: No, years ago, drunken college kids would go there late
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 2: at night, and they'd bite into the hot pizza and
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 2: burn themselves. So that's why they threw cold cheese all
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 2: over it. Now, you don't have any... There you go. Oh, actually,
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 2: the best pizza, it's in a restaurant. Tutto Pazzo, now
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: called Posto Pazzo in Huntington, makes the best pizza in
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 2: the world. But it's a restaurant. It's like a sit-down
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 2: restaurant with waiters, and you order.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 9: Oh, I might have to try that.
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 2: It's phenomenal. But order something else. They get mad when
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 2: I plug the pizza because... The big money is not
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 2: in the pizza.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they want to order the.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: That place has the best pizza in Long Island. But
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 2: that doesn't count because that's a serious chef pizza. That's
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: not a fire slice kind of pizza. All right. Thanks
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: for calling. Take care. Let's go to Blauvelt in Florida. Blauvelt,
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 2: how you doing? Blauvelt, are you there? Yes, yes, yes.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 2: I'm here.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 6: Can you hear me?
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 2: What do you want to say?
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 3: I said, what about Lombardi's on Spring Street?
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 9: You never talk about Lombardi's.
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 2: Very good. Excellent pizza. One of the finest and oldest
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 2: in Manhattan. Lombardi's is great.
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 9: 1905.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, 1905. That's the price of a slice, too. No,
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 2: I'm kidding.
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 3: That's a very good pizza.
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 9: Hey, why is Blakeman wasting money running ads on your show?
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 2: Is he running ads on our show?
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I just heard two in the last couple hours.
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 2: I got to be honest. During the break, I went
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 2: to the little boy's room. Was he running ads here? Yeah,
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 2: I heard, too. That could be part of a deal.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 2: You know, if you're running for office and you're a
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: Republican and you say to yourself, I don't need to
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 2: advertise there, they'll vote for you. We have the most
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 2: important stations you could advertise on, like Charlemagne right over there,
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 2: Power 105. The black votes, very important. Spanish votes, we
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 2: got KTU. Whatever you need.
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 9: Oh, so it's running over there, too?
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, sometimes they buy an iHeart package where they're on
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 2: every station, so it could be part of that. And,
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 2: you know, if you need... We have a lot of
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 2: sponsors who aren't even on the air, believe it or not.
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 2: They just want our social media. They want to be
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 2: all over our Instagram or TikTok. So it's probably part
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 2: of a big package buy. All right. Well, thanks for calling.
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 2: Take care. Let's go to Marie in Ossining. Marie, how
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 2: you doing? Marie in Ossining, are you there?
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 12: Nope.
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 4: Marie?

  Speaker 8: Can you hear me?
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Marie.

  Speaker 2: Ossining, New York, where Don Draper lived. Go ahead.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 8: And Sing Sing Prison. I just have a question. You know,
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 8: I don't understand why Kathy Hochul has to make the
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 8: choice of whether there's whether she'll debate or not. I mean,
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 8: she's the governor.
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 14: Yes.
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 8: But she's also a candidate. So I don't know. I mean,
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 8: it just seems like unfair that she. you know, makes
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 8: the decisions as to whether or not she will debate someone.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 2: Well, it's interesting because she didn't take public money. She
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 2: was able to raise so much money. if you don't
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: take the public money you're not legally obligated to debate
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 2: she's agreed to new york one but only because that's
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 2: the most left-wing biased place in the world.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 8: Oh okay i didn't know that.
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah all right thanks for calling we got time for

  Speaker 2: And Kimmel, small audience. Colbert, he had his little niche audience.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 2: They made it realize there was a time where everybody
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 2: watched The Tonight Show. The country watched it.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 3: It really did.
• 1:32:42

• 1:33:15
  Speaker 19: thrust into the national spotlight. And Ross Perot, believe it
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 19: or not, showed up to 30 Rock here in New
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 19: York without any bodyguard, no security, and just showed up himself.
• 1:33:25
  Speaker 2: Now, a big part of The Tonight Show was the
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 2: new comedians, and Carson discovered hundreds of the biggest stars
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 2: in the world. But when Jay Leno took over, he
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 2: dropped that whole feature.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 11: Why?
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 19: Jay Leno, unfortunately, his producer told him the ratings were
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 19: going down with comedians. Music, the ratings go down, but
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 19: comedians don't. Their research, the NBC research, said that it
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 19: went down even more. Now, Johnny Carson refused to do
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 19: that to comedians. He knew that his responsibility that he
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 19: had with his show to comedians and was loyal to them.
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 19: And for whatever reason, I don't know if that was
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 19: accurate or not, but Jay was a company man with
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 19: NBC and said, you know, every rating matters. And the comedians, unfortunately,
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 19: were pushed to the side for a long, long time.
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So, hey, everybody, sign up for the sub stack.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 2: It's called Here's Johnny Carson. Great sub stack. Get the book.
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 2: Love Johnny Carson. You'll love this book. We were talking
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 2: about this all week because it's the 72nd anniversary of
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: The Tonight Show. It was created 72 years ago by
• 1:34:29
  Speaker 2: Steve Allen, who said when he started, he had no
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 2: idea what would happen with it. But it was amazing, right?
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 2: That's what he began.
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 9: It really was.
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 19: It was one of those things when he started the show,
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 19: he did it, you know, for four or five years.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 19: And the notion that the show was even going to
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 19: continue was in doubt.
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 3: But then, you know, Jack Parr doesn't end for whatever,
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 3: four or five years. And that's what people thought. You'd
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 3: do the show for four or five years.
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 19: And the fact that this guy, Johnny Carson, for 30
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 19: years dominated, number one, and turned it into just such
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 19: a cultural stone.
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 2: Your phone is cracking up.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 3: Unbelievable. Oh, sorry about that. Can you hear me now?
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, much better.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 3: Sorry about that.
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 19: Yeah, the fact that the show has been able to, yeah,
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 19: for that many years succeed because of Johnny Carson for
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 19: those 30 years that he was delivered at number one,
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 19: the fact that the show is still going and in
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 19: Johnny's original studio on the sixth floor of NBC and 16.
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 2: So what was different about Steve Allen, what got everybody's attention,
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 2: before that, even the late night, whatever it was, it
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 2: was a variety show. They had sketches, they had a script.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 2: He would just come out and ad-lib. Nobody had ever
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 2: done that before.
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 19: An hour and 45 minutes live from the glorious Hudson Theater.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 19: And they were doing the show live from 11.15 till
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 19: 1 a.m. And yes, Steve Allen was a master going
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 19: out on the street just with a camera and just
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 19: interviewing people.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, the guy.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 19: I mean, just doing such innovative stuff. David Letterman, I mean,
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 19: he gave Steve Allen all the attribution. He was basically
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 19: copying a lot of Steve Allen's gags. I mean, the
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 19: man was an absolute legend and should get the credit
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 19: for creating The Tonight Show, the person behind the desk.
• 1:36:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, what a master Steve Allen was.
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, Steve Allen had a desk. And I think
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 2: if it were guests, they'd bring out a chair behind
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 2: the desk. But it was Jack Parr came along. He
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 2: was the next Tonight Show host. He's the guy that
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 2: came up with the desk, a chair, and a couch.
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 2: He invented that and got rid of all the variety stuff,
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 2: the music kind of stuff. And it was mostly a
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 2: talk show. And Parr was a– have you been watching
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 2: a lot of Jack Parr? He's on YouTube. Fascinating guy.
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 3: It really is. I mean, he is a broadcaster.
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 19: I mean, he was unbelievable in the– The controversy, I mean,
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 19: that he was, these views and you would weep on air.
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 3: And, you know, he's feuding with Ed Sullivan.
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 19: You know, people like Jimmy Hoffa suing him. I mean,
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 19: it was always in the news for going after people.
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 19: It's such a fascinating case study, Jack Parr. You know,
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 19: Dick Cavett told me Jack Parr's biggest regret. Parr told
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 19: him was leaving the Tonight Show was the biggest regret
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 19: of my life.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it was so intense, and he got so emotional.
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 9: It was.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 2: He couldn't keep it up much longer. And then Carson
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 2: comes in, and at first everybody thought it was a
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 2: bad choice because he was so casual and low-key. They
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 2: didn't think he was big enough to fill up that show.
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 2: And wasn't it true the first year or two they
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 2: weren't sure he was going to make it?
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 19: This guy was a game show host on ABC. People said,
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 19: this guy's wrong, and we want controversy. And Johnny said, no,
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 19: this is an entertainment show, and it really did take
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 19: the public a little time For them to catch up
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 19: in Carson's brilliance. And he takes over the Tonight Show
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 19: in 62. And by 1964, breaking Judy Garland's record in
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 19: Las Vegas. And he has cemented himself. As a huge
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 19: global superstar, I mean, people around everywhere wanted to go
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 19: to the Tonight Show to wait for tickets. They would
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 19: save up their money to go to Vegas on vacation
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 19: to see Johnny. But still with NBC, he couldn't get
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 19: a restroom, his own bathroom in his office at that point.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 19: And it took every year he would get a little
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 19: bit more momentum from NBC and it took him. it
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 19: took him almost nine years to finally get a window
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 19: office and to finally, and this is Johnny Carson, that
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 19: finally get a bathroom and shower. Everything took a little
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 19: bit of time, but I think the 1964 in Vegas
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 19: at the Sahara, when he was getting paid, I mean,
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 19: people couldn't believe the money that he was getting paid.
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 19: That is what really, I think got him over the
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 19: top as, as an established star with NBC.
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 2: Now, big thing was the, every year they would do
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 2: the anniversary show with all the highlights, an hour and
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 2: a half, incredible highlights. And we've all, we all know
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 2: those highlights. Could you imagine a Jay Leno highlight show?
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 2: Could there be such a thing?
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 3: I don't think so.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 19: I mean, the only thing when I talk to people
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 19: about Leno show that watched it, I asked for memorable moments.
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 3: They've mentioned Hugh Grant and there weren't a lot.
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 19: I mean, he would do the jaywalking and those popular segments,
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 19: but not really specific moments.
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 3: Whereas you talk about Carson. I mean, it's just one
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 3: thing after another.
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 19: And I got to sit down with Ed Ames of
• 1:39:14
