• 0:41
  Speaker 1: to Jim in New Jersey. Jim, how you doing?
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Two quick points. I think two of the best Yankee
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: announcers are still alive. They're in their 90s. One would

  Speaker 3: be Bill White and the other is Tony Kubik.

  Speaker 1: Tony Kubik is still alive?
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Yes, he is. Early 90s. Mark, I got a little confused.

• 1:03
  Speaker 3: New Jersey, you know.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about the good one.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Well, you know what the New Jersey one is famous for?
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: I hate to ask.
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: That's where the largest battle of the American Revolution was there,
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: the Battle of Monmouth. Molly Pitcher.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Well, we like Manalapan in New Jersey, but there's a
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Manalapan right below Palm Beach. It's very, very hot right now,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: real estate-wise. All right, thanks for calling. Hey, you know
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: who I saw last night? Uncle Junior. Dominic Chianese. He's
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: got to be like 95. He was out having dinner.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Very good shape. Let's go to... Oh, hey, I got
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: it that time. Let's go to Bob in Long Island. Bob,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: All right, Bob. Go Buchanan, go Buchanan.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, the Buchanan guy. All right, let's see. All right,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: now here's the problem. I can't hang up. That's the problem.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: The hang up button doesn't work. Can you get rid
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: of Bob in there? We're trying to get our phones working.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Let's try Ralph in Manhattan. Ralph, how are you doing?
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: You know, Mark, if Hochul wins again, you know that
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: New York is through. I mean, Blakeman just proposed something
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: so brilliant and so great for New York. If they
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: turn around and reject him, It's all over, Mark.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I hate to break it to you. It's bad if
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: she wins, but it's not all over. It's not through.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Everything will be fine. We've survived everything. Jimmy Carter, Joe Biden.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: It's not.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: I get what you mean. I'm a little I'm a
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: little drastic, but it's unbelievable how they keep voting for
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: people that have no clue whatsoever. I mean, she was the,
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: you know, the the carry the water for our friend, Dr.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Cuomo back in the old days, and she surged to
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: such high levels as such a... I mean, I don't
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: understand why people can ever even praise her in any way, shape,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: or form.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Well, I can explain it, but thanks for calling. You know,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: the problem is most people don't get any real news.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: They'll read the New York Times, they'll watch MSNBC, so
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: they'll never hear all the bad stuff that these people do.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: They'll never hear the real story about anything. You know,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Cuomo did so much damage to us with the no bail,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: no jail, with the closing Indian Point, with the closing
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: of prisons, letting all the prisoners out. I mean, you
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: can go on and on. But one of them, don't
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: forget one of them, he's the guy that picked Kathy Hochul.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: He's the guy that chose Kathy Hochul for us. Let's
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: see if I can try this one. No, it doesn't work.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: You got to do it. Rob in Franklin Square. Rob,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: how you doing? Hi, Mark.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: You know, you can blame the judges on these. That
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: should be summarily dismissed, what they didn't prove the case
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: with the, you know, it's so stupid with the old
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: coots thing. But can I mention something about Comics Unleashed?
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Comics Unleashed. Very good show.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Byron Allen.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: You know, over the 20 years, but they only did
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: four seasons, though.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: No, no.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: 2006.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: They've done tons of seasons. They do take some time.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Let's get this guy off the air. We can't broadcast
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: false information. They've done plenty of seasons. Comics Unleashed. It's
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a very good show. It's on CBS every night now
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: at 1130 on CBS. It replaced Colbert, and it's doing
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: much better than Colbert. In fact, in the most important thing,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: which is the 18 to 49 demo, it is wiping
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: out Kimmel Anne Fallon. It's pretty amazing. Comics Unleashed. What's today? Wednesday?
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: In fact, tomorrow night, my friend Dave Koenig is on.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: A very good comedian. He'll be on Comics Unleashed tomorrow night.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Take a look at it. In fact, it's doing so
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: well that CBS is going to do a primetime special,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: an hour of Comics Unleashed. This is Byron Allen, the
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: comedian who became a producer, a businessman, went from comedian
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: to to making himself a billion dollars. He's a billionaire.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: I can't think of any other, maybe Cosby, comedian that
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: became a billionaire. Oh, Seinfeld, but it's very, very few.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: It's a short list. So the thing about Comics Unleashed,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: there's no political jokes of any kind and no topical jokes.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: So they could take a show from five years ago
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: to 15 years ago and run it today. They're as
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: fresh as can be. They're in syndication all over the place. Hey,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: when we come back, We'll take a look at the midterms.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: It's only 34 days away. It's like one month till
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: the midterms. What can Republicans do? Where does it really stand?
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: We'll talk to the dean himself, the great political analyst,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Ed Rollins. We'll talk to him next on 710WOR. Mark
• 5:42
