Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I'm sorry, did Ray Stajic say low 80s?
- 0:04Speaker 2: You know, I'm down on Ray Stajic in terms of
- 0:09Speaker 2: everything he has said, but you folks, you and Natalie
- 0:12Speaker 2: seem to give him a pass, and obviously our listeners,
- 0:16Speaker 2: wherever they are, but I thought he nailed it. Yeah,
- 0:19Speaker 2: I'm not giving him a pass. I thought he did
- 0:20Speaker 2: a great job on that forecast with the storm. No,
- 0:23Speaker 2: I think he was a dollar short and a day late.
- 0:26Speaker 2: I'm sorry. You just don't like his temperament.
- 0:29Speaker 1: You thought that he soft-sell'd it, but what he was
- 0:32Speaker 1: actually saying was right on the money.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Well, he was too laid back. If you notice, yesterday,
- 0:39Speaker 2: all the residual effects of this nor'easter became very apparent.
- 0:44Speaker 2: From the downed power lines to the downed trees to
- 0:48Speaker 2: the beach encroachment. What beach? The beach is gone. All
- 0:52Speaker 2: the way up the Jersey Shore, South Shore, Long Island,
- 0:55Speaker 2: everywhere you look, including my favorite broad channel, Howard Beach
- 0:59Speaker 2: and the Rockaways, the Irish Riviera. Wiped out. Wiped out.
- 1:04Speaker 2: And I remember him two days before, well... It might.
- 1:08Speaker 2: You never know if it goes west. I don't know.
- 1:11Speaker 2: And I'm like, what? Compared to the TV forecasters, he
- 1:15Speaker 2: was a weather forecaster on Quaaludes.
- 1:17Speaker 1: You are completely misquoting him. He said it was going
- 1:21Speaker 1: to be bad along the shoreline. It's going to depend
- 1:24Speaker 1: for everybody else how far west it goes. And look,
- 1:27Speaker 1: I barely got anything because I'm way off the shoreline. Natalie,
- 1:31Speaker 1: did you get the high winds and the horrible rain?
- 1:35Speaker 2: No.
- 1:35Speaker 3: No.
- 1:36Speaker 2: So he nailed it. He nailed it. Look at you.
- 1:40Speaker 2: I know. That's because you were a brother in solidarity
- 1:42Speaker 2: with him as a fellow weather forecaster who spent years
- 1:46Speaker 2: in San Diego. Very difficult job at night. Oh, it's 78.
- 1:52Speaker 2: It's a gorgeous day. The sun is out. Did it
- 1:55Speaker 2: ever rain? Did you ever have a rain forecast? Here's
- 1:58Speaker 2: how easy it is in San Diego.
- 2:01Speaker 1: Every weatherman is given another job.
- 2:05Speaker 2: You're a consumer reporter plus.
- 2:08Speaker 3: Got it.
- 2:09Speaker 2: It's like a part-time gig. I did features.
- 2:12Speaker 1: I tried to come up with one for every night
- 2:14Speaker 1: because there's not enough weather to talk about.
- 2:17Speaker 2: So that clicker in your hand that all the weather
- 2:19Speaker 2: guys and gals have, where you show all the winds
- 2:22Speaker 2: are coming on shore. There it was like the clicker
- 2:27Speaker 2: was like, They didn't trust me with the flicker. The
- 2:30Speaker 2: director did everything. The director made all of the changes. So, yeah, no.
- 2:36Speaker 2: But wait a second. Jersey Shore twins. Because the both
- 2:38Speaker 2: of you have been basically birthed and grown up on
- 2:43Speaker 2: the southern part of the Jersey Shore. You, Larry, and
- 2:47Speaker 2: the northern part of the Jersey Shore. You, Natalie. Man,
- 2:50Speaker 2: it looked like a wipeout in some of those areas.
- 2:54Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:55Speaker 1: You should see some of the pictures from there. They
- 2:57Speaker 1: were showing a shot, and I think this was in
- 3:00Speaker 1: Long Island because they got hit hard, too. They were
- 3:03Speaker 1: showing the steps going down from either a pier or
- 3:06Speaker 1: a boardwalk. It was going down, and it just hangs
- 3:10Speaker 1: in the air because so much of the sand was
- 3:13Speaker 1: taken out. I'm talking about several feet of sand taken out.
- 3:16Speaker 4: Wow.
- 3:18Speaker 1: The job they're going to have to do and the
- 3:20Speaker 1: money they're going to have to spend to fix the
- 3:23Speaker 1: Jersey Shore and the beaches on Long Island in New
- 3:27Speaker 1: York is going to be monumental. You know, it's so
- 3:31Speaker 1: lucky this happened at the end of the summer because
- 3:33Speaker 1: it had to happen the beginning of the summer. The
- 3:35Speaker 1: summer would have been a wipeout. There's some of these
- 3:38Speaker 1: beaches that you're not able to go to right now.
- 3:40Speaker 1: So why do we continue this? Ridiculous.
- 3:45Speaker 2: We go out. We dredge up sand way offshore. We
- 3:49Speaker 2: bring it back. We pour it on the existing beach
- 3:52Speaker 2: only to know it's going to be drawn out miles
- 3:56Speaker 2: away and you have to do the process all over again.
- 3:58Speaker 2: We spend basically, when you think of all the years
- 4:01Speaker 2: we've been doing this, since I was a kid, billions
- 4:03Speaker 2: of dollars. It's going on right now. And we're going
- 4:05Speaker 2: to want it from the federal government because we can't
- 4:07Speaker 2: afford it with state funds or local funds. So it's
- 4:11Speaker 2: like you would have figured by now they would have–
- 4:15Speaker 2: Decompartmentalize it and forget. We're doing the same thing. This
- 4:19Speaker 2: is the definition of insanity.
- 4:21Speaker 1: We do the same thing over and over just to
- 4:23Speaker 1: have a beach. Yeah, well, that's a big deal. I mean,
- 4:25Speaker 1: they do make a lot of money. Tourism, and especially
- 4:28Speaker 1: at the Jersey Shore, is a huge asset for the
- 4:32Speaker 1: state of New Jersey, and it is for New York
- 4:35Speaker 1: and Long Island as well. Of course, everybody has memories
- 4:38Speaker 1: of the Jersey Shore. Forget about the money that's made.
- 4:41Speaker 1: It is one of the diamonds in this area, one
- 4:45Speaker 1: of the things we treasure in this area. The fact
- 4:47Speaker 1: that you can go to the Jersey Shore, you can
- 4:49Speaker 1: go to Long Island, or you can go to any
- 4:50Speaker 1: of the New.
- 4:51Speaker 2: York City beaches.
- 4:52Speaker 1: That's part of your memories from when you were a kid.
- 4:55Speaker 2: Understood, but you say.
- 4:55Speaker 1: And there's a lot of money to be made, too.
- 4:57Speaker 2: It's a treasure. Well, treasure gets buried. You have no
- 5:00Speaker 2: beach to bury the treasure in. So your druthers are
- 5:03Speaker 2: you would have done nothing? No, no, I would say
- 5:06Speaker 2: since the Army Corps of Engineers have been coming up
- 5:09Speaker 2: with all kinds of plans since the 60s when I
- 5:12Speaker 2: was a kid, you figure by now, by now they'd
- 5:15Speaker 2: have a better way of retaining the sand every time
- 5:18Speaker 2: a storm hits. You would think by now.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Well, it's not every time a storm hits. It really isn't.
- 5:24Speaker 1: It's like once every several years there's a really bad storm.
- 5:28Speaker 1: And there's a lot of things people don't want to
- 5:31Speaker 1: spend money on.
- 5:32Speaker 2: I agree with you.
- 5:33Speaker 1: That ain't one of them. I think most people, I
- 5:36Speaker 1: think you're in the minority here, most people want to
- 5:38Speaker 1: replenish the shorelines because it's one of our natural beauties
- 5:42Speaker 1: and one of our natural treasures.
- 5:43Speaker 2: That's just because you like it, Larry. That's true. And
- 5:45Speaker 2: that's just because you like it, Natalie. But I bet
- 5:47Speaker 2: you there'll be a lot of taxpayers out there saying, hey,
- 5:50Speaker 2: I don't understand that.
- 5:51Speaker 1: I don't go to the beach. Oh, I'd love to
- 5:53Speaker 1: hear from people because I think that most people... especially
- 5:58Speaker 1: in New Jersey and especially in Long Island, go to
- 6:01Speaker 1: some beach during the summer.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Well, the few times that I've been down at the
- 6:04Speaker 2: Jersey Shore, usually we started out early, you know, New
- 6:07Speaker 2: Jersey Turnpike, Garden State Parkway. And what's the first stop?
- 6:11Speaker 2: Got to get a cup of coffee like everybody else.
- 6:14Speaker 2: They're lined up for all these foreign blends. You're going
- 6:17Speaker 2: to go through the whole day before you get to
- 6:19Speaker 2: the beach?
- 6:19Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:21Speaker 2: But everybody seems to line up. Today is National Coffee Day. Oh,
- 6:26Speaker 2: I get it.
- 6:27Speaker 3: Sorry.
- 6:27Speaker 2: And let's face it. This country is consumed with getting coffee.
- 6:32Speaker 2: Not decaf. There are people out there who specifically say decaf,
- 6:35Speaker 2: but caffeinated. Caffeinated products, especially coffee for the older folks
- 6:40Speaker 2: and for the younger folks, man, it's the caffeinated drinks.
- 6:45Speaker 2: Red Bull, Monster. In fact, Chris, who has returned, what's
- 6:49Speaker 2: the one thing I asked him, Natalie, right out of
- 6:51Speaker 2: the box? Oh, you millennials, you Gen Zers, first thing
- 6:56Speaker 2: in the morning you want, Red Bull. He said, yeah,
- 6:58Speaker 2: two Red Bulls to get going. That's all caffeine. I
- 7:01Speaker 2: don't know. Have you ever tasted Red Bull? Yeah, I
- 7:03Speaker 2: don't mind a Red Bull. Oh, you don't?
- 7:05Speaker 4: No.
- 7:05Speaker 2: I find it a nasty taste, but it's really just
- 7:08Speaker 2: to get you, you know, herky-jerky, basically to jumpstart you.
- 7:11Speaker 1: It's huge in colleges. My college-age kids, they drink it
- 7:15Speaker 1: all the time. For tests, for exams and stuff like that,
- 7:18Speaker 1: they're on Red Bull. And believe me, I prefer that
- 7:22Speaker 1: to the alternatives that they might be taking. So when
- 7:28Speaker 1: they do Red Bull, I go, good.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Thumbs up. I'll go get you a case. Well, let
- 7:32Speaker 2: me give you this new study. You're a coffee guy, Larry.
- 7:35Speaker 2: I notice you're a really good husband in the morning
- 7:38Speaker 2: before you leave to come all the way here to
- 7:40Speaker 2: join me and Natalie and our audience. You make a
- 7:43Speaker 2: cup of coffee for your wife who has to go
- 7:45Speaker 2: opposite you towards Philadelphia, right?
- 7:47Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 7:48Speaker 1: I put it out every single morning. It makes for
- 7:50Speaker 1: a happy marriage. I don't have to do anything else.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if you're aware of this. I
- 7:55Speaker 2: don't know how you got away with that. According to
- 7:58Speaker 2: the studies, with the 80% of U.S. residents who consume caffeine,
- 8:04Speaker 2: the older you are, it's generally with coffee. The first
- 8:07Speaker 2: sip is the strongest buzz of caffeine you're going to
- 8:10Speaker 2: get all day long. It's like any drug. You know,
- 8:13Speaker 2: your first hit is the strongest. Then you keep taking
- 8:15Speaker 2: more and more hits, thinking you could duplicate the original
- 8:18Speaker 2: hit and it never happens. But they're saying you shouldn't
- 8:22Speaker 2: have that caffeinated coffee until 90 minutes after you've woken up.
- 8:26Speaker 1: Well, that's ridiculous. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
- 8:29Speaker 1: And that's one study about how many that have been
- 8:32Speaker 1: out on coffee. I mean, it's ridiculous. You know, I'm
- 8:36Speaker 1: pretty good. And the other thing is how much you're
- 8:39Speaker 1: supposed to drink, right? Everybody tells you how much you're
- 8:42Speaker 1: supposed to drink. For a while there, it was two.
- 8:44Speaker 1: Then it went up to five. You know, me, 14.
- 8:48Speaker 2: 14?
- 8:49Speaker 1: 14 cups of coffee in a day is probably what
- 8:52Speaker 1: I need. No, you're... How many cups of coffee do
- 8:55Speaker 1: I take during the show? Have you seen me get
- 8:56Speaker 1: up constantly? I'm in there getting another.
- 8:58Speaker 2: Cup of coffee. My mouth is on the ground right now.
- 9:01Speaker 2: I drink a lot of coffee. And it's just caffeine.
- 9:04Speaker 2: I can't believe you've never seen me.
- 9:05Speaker 1: Do you think that's the same cup I'm bringing in
- 9:08Speaker 1: all the time?
- 9:09Speaker 2: First of all, that's two. Natalie is stunned now. That's
- 9:12Speaker 2: two in this tumbler. Now, when the original studies came
- 9:16Speaker 2: out and said, you're going to have a heart attack,
- 9:20Speaker 2: you're going to have a stroke. Remember when they said
- 9:21Speaker 2: if you had more than three or four cups a day,
- 9:24Speaker 2: what was your reaction back then? Because I'm assuming you've
- 9:27Speaker 2: been a regular coffee drinker all through these years.
- 9:30Speaker 1: I know I'm not going to have a heart attack
- 9:32Speaker 1: because I need the coffee just to stay awake, just
- 9:36Speaker 1: to stay alert. So It never has taken me to
- 9:40Speaker 1: the point where I felt like my heart was going
- 9:43Speaker 1: too fast or I was going too fast. The coffee
- 9:46Speaker 1: just gets me to normal. 14 cups gets you to normal?
- 9:50Speaker 4: Yes.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Do you know that if you drink too much coffee,
- 9:53Speaker 1: they say that the dopamine stops being replenished in your body?
- 9:59Speaker 2: Yes. So you're actually replacing the dopamine with the coffee.
- 10:03Speaker 2: So you mean if you were to experiment and just
- 10:05Speaker 2: come in and let's say have a normal one cup
- 10:08Speaker 2: of coffee when you're home before you come and then
- 10:10Speaker 2: another cup here, you would be falling asleep during this program?
- 10:13Speaker 2: I'd be that boring and Natalie would be that boring
- 10:16Speaker 2: that we would put you to sleep?
- 10:18Speaker 1: No, I wouldn't say that you were that boring that
- 10:21Speaker 1: I went to sleep, but I would say my lack
- 10:23Speaker 1: of coffee, yes, would make me drowsy.
- 10:25Speaker 2: Well, let's find out from our many listeners out there
- 10:27Speaker 2: and talk back. Do you think... 14 cups of caffeinated
- 10:31Speaker 2: coffee that Larry drinks religiously.
- 10:36Speaker 1: I'll admit, 14 is a number I just made up.
- 10:40Speaker 1: But I'll start counting. Do you think that's a little
- 10:44Speaker 1: too much? Are you similar to Larry? Or do you
- 10:47Speaker 1: believe this latest study? It says caffeine.
- 10:52Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to have a regulated day, don't
- 10:55Speaker 2: drink your first cup of caffeinated coffee until 90 minutes
- 11:00Speaker 2: after you wake up. And the whole idea is your
- 11:02Speaker 2: first sip is going to be your strongest caffeine boost
- 11:05Speaker 2: all day long. Yeah, I don't believe that either. Like
- 11:09Speaker 2: I have one in the afternoon.
- 11:10Speaker 1: I go home and I nap and then I have
- 11:12Speaker 1: a cup of coffee as soon as I wake up.
- 11:15Speaker 2: I just can't even believe it.
- 11:16Speaker 5: I only started drinking coffee five years ago, and I
- 11:19Speaker 5: have one cup a day, maybe two.
- 11:21Speaker 2: National coffee day.
- 11:22Speaker 1: The only downside of it is I go to the
- 11:25Speaker 1: bathroom a lot.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it is. It's a good eliminator. Constant. Absolutely.
- 11:32Speaker 2: All day long. Don't worry about it. Don't forget the
- 11:34Speaker 2: prune juice. Just drink the coffee.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Hey, so if you want to leave the talk back,
- 11:39Speaker 1: go to the iHeartRadio app, leave us a talk back.
- 11:41Speaker 2: You could win it courteously, win Larry Menti in the
- 11:43Speaker 2: morning t-shirt. You know that. We award that every single day.
- 11:47Speaker 1: And while you're on the free iHeartRadio app, be sure
- 11:49Speaker 1: to stay at a preset for 710WOR. Well, explain this
- 11:55Speaker 1: Giants and Yankees thing. We have two things, big deals
- 11:58Speaker 1: going on in town. The Giants got a new player,
- 12:01Speaker 1: and then the Yankees have two players that they hope
- 12:05Speaker 1: can play. but it's very doubtful they're ever going to
- 12:08Speaker 1: be able to play this year. But they're praying, they're praying,
- 12:12Speaker 1: and they're trying. Plus, man, I would love to go
- 12:15Speaker 1: to this concert. Stevie Wonder at 825. Tickets to see
- 12:20Speaker 1: Stevie Wonder. You're going to get a chance when they
- 12:22Speaker 1: tell you to call in.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Stick around.
- 12:33Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon is the WLR host, 9 to Midnight on
- 12:37Speaker 1: Fox Across America with Jimmy Fallon. He's also host of,
- 12:40Speaker 1: you know this, Fox News Saturday Night with Jimmy Fallon.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Very funny show on the Fox News channel. And Jimmy,
- 12:47Speaker 1: I want to start off by talking about this event
- 12:49Speaker 1: you have coming up. You are going to be at
- 12:52Speaker 1: the Cucina Calandra in Fairfield, New Jersey on October 28th.
- 12:58Speaker 1: So you get a dinner buffet. You get the comedy show.
- 13:02Speaker 1: And then there is going to be a meet and
- 13:05Speaker 1: greet afterwards. So it's not just like you show up
- 13:08Speaker 1: with your entourage, do a quick performance and leave. You
- 13:12Speaker 1: actually hang out for a while.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:15Speaker 3: And in this case, I don't have an entourage. I
- 13:18Speaker 3: have a wardrobe team trying to keep me away from
- 13:20Speaker 3: the cannolis.
- 13:22Speaker 2: Good luck.
- 13:25Speaker 3: It's a totally different thing. Like I'll actually be performing
- 13:29Speaker 3: with a shock collar on because everyone, including Natalie, keeps
- 13:32Speaker 3: sending me pictures of bread.
- 13:36Speaker 5: This weird thing. Natalie sends bread the way like Anthony.
- 13:40Speaker 3: Weiner used to text women pictures.
- 13:42Speaker 5: Of other.
- 13:44Speaker 2: Things. She sends bread pics?
- 13:46Speaker 5: She did. She texted me like, I don't know, like
- 13:50Speaker 5: five in the morning. I'm not kidding. And she's like,
- 13:52Speaker 5: what do you think of this? And I'm like, what's
- 13:56Speaker 5: happening to you?
- 13:57Speaker 1: Why are you in a towel? Let me let people
- 14:02Speaker 1: know how they can get tickets to this. You go
- 14:03Speaker 1: to 710WOR. com slash Jimmy. It's going to sell out fast,
- 14:07Speaker 1: so Go to 710WOR. com slash Jimmy.
- 14:11Speaker 2: What's the name of this place, Larry, again? It is
- 14:13Speaker 2: Cucina Calandra. So I'm not going to go there sitting
- 14:18Speaker 2: looking at cast characters from The Sopranos waiting for Jimmy.
- 14:21Speaker 2: You won't fail me failure, will it? Probably.
- 14:25Speaker 4: No, hold on.
- 14:26Speaker 3: Let me clear that up because I've paid off all
- 14:28Speaker 3: of those people. I'm in a good place in my career.
- 14:33Speaker 4: Can I tell you this?
- 14:34Speaker 3: Like when I'm walking down the street now and people go, hey,
- 14:37Speaker 3: you Jimmy Fela, I can actually say yes.
- 14:40Speaker 5: Whereas like five years ago, I would.
- 14:43Speaker 4: Just start running immediately. There was no follow-up question. I
- 14:47Speaker 4: would just go.
- 14:48Speaker 5: So yeah, this is a good place for me.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Because of possible charges or your credit?
- 14:55Speaker 4: My tab is good. Everything's fine.
- 14:58Speaker 5: Again, I just have to stop this chick who keeps stalking.
- 15:01Speaker 4: Me with the bread picks. If I can get her
- 15:03Speaker 4: under control, I get a shot.
- 15:05Speaker 2: All right, now, Jimmy, we saw the MTV Video Awards.
- 15:09Speaker 2: They made up like 10,000 new awards, especially for Taylor Swift.
- 15:13Speaker 2: What did you make of the fact that she dropped
- 15:15Speaker 2: four songs, brand-new songs, and one of them is a
- 15:19Speaker 2: diss of Joe Jonas? This woman won't give it up
- 15:22Speaker 2: with those 12 ex-boyfriends. She won't be happy till they're dead.
- 15:29Speaker 3: You know who's got to be watching that nervously? Travis Kelsey.
- 15:33Speaker 3: you know, because this, everybody's been saying this forever. This
- 15:36Speaker 3: doesn't end good for him. So she's going to write
- 15:40Speaker 3: the greatest breakup album of all time. And he's not
- 15:43Speaker 3: even going to get a royalty. And he will have
- 15:45Speaker 3: been responsible for like 10 of the.
- 15:47Speaker 5: 12 tracks, you know, she doesn't let it go, man.
- 15:49Speaker 4: She does not let it go.
- 15:51Speaker 2: I want to, I want to find out from you.
- 15:53Speaker 1: Do you ever watch the Academy Awards or the VMAs
- 15:57Speaker 1: or any, any of those award shows? Because When I watch,
- 16:01Speaker 1: I don't know anybody. I don't know the movies. I
- 16:04Speaker 1: don't know half the acts. They've lost me.
- 16:07Speaker 3: Well, that was the best part the other night of
- 16:09Speaker 3: the Madonna performance is you couldn't hear the music because
- 16:12Speaker 3: everybody was Googling her. You know, all the young kids
- 16:16Speaker 3: in the audience, you could hear them typing on their
- 16:18Speaker 3: phones and their iPads. Like, you know, someone's grandma just
- 16:23Speaker 3: ran onto the stage and they were confused.
- 16:26Speaker 2: I mean, what did you make of that, Jimmy? To me,
- 16:30Speaker 2: you know, they were like gushing. And I looked at
- 16:32Speaker 2: her like, man, she can't even walk straight without falling
- 16:37Speaker 2: to a side. She can't even remember what award that
- 16:39Speaker 2: they made up to give to her. I thought it
- 16:42Speaker 2: was like, man, low budget.
- 16:44Speaker 3: It was that, yeah, she was so out of it
- 16:47Speaker 3: during that last acceptance speech. that Jill Biden wants her
- 16:50Speaker 3: to serve four more years in office.
- 16:52Speaker 2: That's when I knew it was bad.
- 16:55Speaker 3: She started rambling, and Jill just cut her off, like, Madonna,
- 16:58Speaker 3: you did it, four more years.
- 17:00Speaker 2: I'm like, what am I watching?
- 17:02Speaker 4: But you know what happened really quickly?
- 17:03Speaker 3: They definitely, definitely, okay, gave her all of those awards
- 17:09Speaker 3: as a way of trying to entice people our age
- 17:12Speaker 3: to watch the show. Because that is, you know, they
- 17:15Speaker 3: threw it on CBS. The show's never been on CBS
- 17:17Speaker 3: because MTV used to be a channel.
- 17:20Speaker 4: And they don't have the channel anymore. So they went
- 17:22Speaker 4: with it on network.
- 17:23Speaker 5: And they definitely tried to.
- 17:25Speaker 3: Cater to a network audience by having more recognizable people
- 17:29Speaker 3: like Madonna and Snoop Dogg who aren't actively burning up
- 17:32Speaker 3: the charts, but they're bigger holdovers from a previous generation.
- 17:36Speaker 4: But it was such a bad look. Like, they should
- 17:38Speaker 4: have gave her, like, yeah, maybe a Lifetime Achievement Award.
- 17:41Speaker 3: You know, but making her repetitively get back up on
- 17:44Speaker 3: that stage just felt.
- 17:45Speaker 4: Like a life alert.
- 17:48Speaker 1: Hey, listen, I think you are a untapped natural resource
- 17:53Speaker 1: when it comes to politics on Fox News. And since
- 17:58Speaker 1: I think that you may be a political savant, can
- 18:01Speaker 1: you give some advice? If you were advising him on
- 18:06Speaker 1: how to fix his popularity numbers, what would you say
- 18:09Speaker 1: to Donald Trump?
- 18:12Speaker 4: To Donald Trump? Yeah. Ooh, this is the biggest challenge
- 18:16Speaker 4: right now.
- 18:16Speaker 3: It is obviously is the war and how that's affecting
- 18:19Speaker 3: prices and everything like that.
- 18:21Speaker 4: And I don't know if there.
- 18:23Speaker 3: Is a plan, like maybe this war is going to
- 18:25Speaker 3: end in two days.
- 18:26Speaker 4: Prices are going to come down. It's going to save
- 18:27Speaker 4: the day.
- 18:28Speaker 3: But he needs to ditch his advisors because if people
- 18:31Speaker 3: are telling him this is fine. You know, because they
- 18:34Speaker 3: don't want to upset him behind closed doors. Like, they're
- 18:36Speaker 3: about to nuke the guy's whole presidency.
- 18:38Speaker 4: So I would tell him to hire, I don't know, me.
- 18:42Speaker 5: Not me.
- 18:42Speaker 3: I've got to go to Kachina.
- 18:43Speaker 4: Kalandra and eat the bread.
- 18:45Speaker 5: But he needs to hire somebody that will level with him.
- 18:48Speaker 4: I mean, I really think that's the biggest challenge right now.
- 18:51Speaker 2: Yeah, well, guess what? If you knew Donald Trump, nobody
- 18:56Speaker 2: gives advice to Donald Trump. He takes his own advice.
- 19:00Speaker 2: This is his own advice.
- 19:02Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 19:04Speaker 3: No, I don't doubt that. That's why they didn't replace
- 19:07Speaker 3: the press secretary yet. I mean, Caroline Leavitt is really
- 19:09Speaker 3: good at her job, but at the same time, he
- 19:11Speaker 3: is the press secretary. You know, when you really think
- 19:14Speaker 3: about it, the press secretary gives you two briefings a
- 19:16Speaker 3: week at 2 p.m. Trump gives you seven briefings a
- 19:19Speaker 3: week at 1 a.m.
- 19:21Speaker 4: Then you get a 5 a.m.
- 19:22Speaker 3: Then you get a 9 a.m.
- 19:23Speaker 5: Now he's doing a press conference. Trump had to use
- 19:27Speaker 5: the bathroom. Here's a seven-page tweet about CNN.
- 19:30Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, I just go to Fox News
- 19:32Speaker 1: and look at all the pictures and try to figure
- 19:33Speaker 1: out who's going to be the press secretary. How many
- 19:36Speaker 1: people is he hiring?
- 19:39Speaker 3: I don't think, I mean, in terms of people that
- 19:41Speaker 3: went up in the cabinet, yeah, Sean Duffy, Judge Jeanine, Hegseth,
- 19:46Speaker 3: running defense.
- 19:46Speaker 4: So, yes, no question there. But I don't think this now.
- 19:50Speaker 3: Press person is going to be a Fox person. I think,
- 19:53Speaker 3: it's very interesting, but I think that obviously Scott Jennings
- 19:57Speaker 3: at CNN was campaigning for it pretty aggressively. I feel
- 20:00Speaker 3: like if he was the guy, he would have got
- 20:01Speaker 3: it by now. So I wonder if there is somebody
- 20:05Speaker 3: who is an underling of Caroline who that they're just
- 20:09Speaker 3: kind of slow rolling behind the scenes. Because Caroline, I
- 20:13Speaker 3: was there at the White House pretty recently, and she
- 20:16Speaker 3: had some real muscle in that press office. And by muscle,
- 20:19Speaker 3: I mean the kind of gals Trump likes, you know,
- 20:22Speaker 3: girls that are all a nine and a half and are,
- 20:25Speaker 3: you know, very attractive, very sharp and willing.
- 20:28Speaker 4: To go on offense at that podium.
- 20:30Speaker 3: So I wouldn't be surprised If Trump is just going
- 20:32Speaker 3: to take a nod from his pageant days down in Jersey,
- 20:36Speaker 3: and we're going to get some girl in a sash
- 20:38Speaker 3: who knows how to yell fake news for three hours
- 20:41Speaker 3: a day.
- 20:42Speaker 2: That's a really good call.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon, WOR host, 9 to Midnight, Fox Across America
- 20:47Speaker 1: with Jimmy Fallon, host of Fox News Saturday Night with
- 20:50Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon on the Fox News channel.
- 20:53Speaker 2: Talk to you next week. Thanks a lot, Jimmy.
- 20:55Speaker 4: You're the best, guys. See you. Bye-bye.
- 20:57Speaker 2: The conversation continues. Curtis Lewa and Larry Menti.
- 21:02Speaker 3: 710WOR.
- 21:04Speaker 1: Well, everybody's back in the courtroom today in front of
- 21:06Speaker 1: a judge for a hearing to decide if there's going
- 21:09Speaker 1: to be a retrial of Lindsay Clancy. Everybody, every single
- 21:16Speaker 1: legal analyst that you've heard so far has said there's
- 21:19Speaker 1: definitely going to be a retrial. The only question is
- 21:22Speaker 1: going to be, are they still going to go to
- 21:25Speaker 1: first-degree murder without a chance of ever getting out? That's
- 21:30Speaker 1: the only question, apparently, at this point. According to the
- 21:34Speaker 1: legal analysts, now, they may shock us. It may turn
- 21:37Speaker 1: out to be otherwise, but that sounds like that's what's
- 21:40Speaker 1: going to happen, and we'll talk about that tomorrow. But
- 21:43Speaker 1: right now, the holdout juror, the one that caused a mistrial,
- 21:50Speaker 1: Michael Desronneville, spoke last night to Fox News and Sean Hannity.
- 21:56Speaker 6: I know the whole focus has been on me, but
- 21:59Speaker 6: we want to reel everything back and put the focus
- 22:02Speaker 6: on the three angels that's at hand. The ones that
- 22:05Speaker 6: can't speak for themselves, the ones that can't defend themselves,
- 22:09Speaker 6: and the ones that can't fight the battles.
- 22:12Speaker 2: And those are Cora, Dawson, and Callan.
- 22:16Speaker 1: Amen to that. My God. Thank God that guy was
- 22:21Speaker 1: in the jury room. I will tell you that there's
- 22:25Speaker 1: going to be a retrial and it's going to be
- 22:27Speaker 1: odd if they find out that they get the same
- 22:31Speaker 1: type of jurors and it's going to be odd if
- 22:34Speaker 1: all of the sudden we get the same verdict. I
- 22:36Speaker 1: don't think that's ever going to happen. It sounds like
- 22:38Speaker 1: when you hear from the holdout juror that there was
- 22:42Speaker 1: a group of real feminist women who put who came
- 22:46Speaker 1: after him and he said, every time I tried to talk,
- 22:49Speaker 1: they'd cut me off. It was, it was an argument.
- 22:52Speaker 1: Nobody was hearing each other out and they were upset
- 22:55Speaker 1: with them. He also said, and his attorney said that
- 22:59Speaker 1: everything that has been said about him since then is
- 23:02Speaker 1: a lie that he never had reasonable doubt. He, he
- 23:07Speaker 1: was positive from the beginning that she should be sentenced
- 23:11Speaker 1: to first degree murder because she killed three children.
- 23:15Speaker 2: Apparently, He was the.
- 23:17Speaker 1: Only one in that jury room that was thinking about
- 23:21Speaker 1: the three kids. The rest of them thought that this
- 23:25Speaker 1: was going to be a movement, that now we're going
- 23:28Speaker 1: to do postpartum care and make this a national movement
- 23:33Speaker 1: to make sure that no women, no women are ever
- 23:36Speaker 1: charged with a crime like this again ever. especially if
- 23:39Speaker 1: they've gone through some type of postpartum psychosis. It was bizarre.
- 23:45Speaker 1: I'll tell you one other thing. I heard an interview
- 23:48Speaker 1: with his attorney. Also, it was on Fox News. And
- 23:52Speaker 1: it sounds to me like there is going to be
- 23:55Speaker 1: a lawsuit against the defense attorney, Reddington, because anything he
- 24:00Speaker 1: said in court, that's okay. Anything he said in court
- 24:04Speaker 1: about the holdout juror is fine.
- 24:06Speaker 2: That's protected.
- 24:07Speaker 1: But he went on TV and attacked the holdout juror.
- 24:11Speaker 1: He went out in front of the courthouse and attacked
- 24:14Speaker 1: the courthouse juror. So listen to his attorney, and you
- 24:17Speaker 1: can tell me if you think that there's a lawsuit coming.
- 24:20Speaker 7: Kevin Reddington is just upset that he lost out on
- 24:24Speaker 7: his legacy moment. He was one vote away from winning
- 24:30Speaker 7: a trial that would have been the capstone of his career,
- 24:33Speaker 7: and he didn't get it. And he lost his mind
- 24:37Speaker 7: because of it.
- 24:39Speaker 1: That's attorney Edward Poltsnick, who is now representing the holdout
- 24:44Speaker 1: jury in a civil action, Curtis.
- 24:46Speaker 2: Well, he can knock himself out. He's going to sue Reddington.
- 24:49Speaker 2: I think Reddington secretly wants another trial. I mean, look
- 24:53Speaker 2: at him. He's internationally prominent. He was the likable attorney,
- 24:57Speaker 2: an older guy. Everybody came to him. All the reporters
- 25:02Speaker 2: loved him. All the ladies in pink who were outside
- 25:05Speaker 2: supporting his client, they loved him. Even though he'll say,
- 25:13Speaker 2: I don't want this to go forward. You know, secretly,
- 25:15Speaker 2: Reddington wants this to go forward because trial number two,
- 25:18Speaker 2: he's in the spotlight, just like all the TV analysts. Oh,
- 25:21Speaker 2: they want it desperately. That's at least three months in
- 25:25Speaker 2: which you're going to be getting accommodations in Plymouth Rock.
- 25:28Speaker 2: And the networks want it and everybody wants it. But
- 25:31Speaker 2: I got to think if I'm the prosecutor and I've
- 25:35Speaker 2: heard more of what the husband actually texted and put
- 25:41Speaker 2: on social networking about his wife at the time, he's
- 25:45Speaker 2: going to be Reddington's primary witness. And they're going to
- 25:50Speaker 2: have a hung jury again. It's just no way. I
- 25:52Speaker 2: don't agree with you. They're not going to get 12
- 25:53Speaker 2: people who agree.
- 25:54Speaker 4: I do.
- 25:55Speaker 2: I think so. I think they're going to get 12 people.
- 25:57Speaker 2: I think they're going to go after a second degree
- 25:59Speaker 2: and they're going to get it. So we'll see. I mean,
- 26:01Speaker 2: neither of us know. We'll both find out together. If
- 26:03Speaker 2: they want to waste their money in Massachusetts and in
- 26:06Speaker 2: the county there, if they want to waste their money,
- 26:08Speaker 2: go ahead. But they're not going to. It's going to
- 26:10Speaker 2: be a hung jury. It's not.
- 26:12Speaker 1: And there's no question they're going to go after this again.
- 26:14Speaker 1: I mean— And I'm only going from what do I know?
- 26:17Speaker 1: I'm not an attorney, but I'm going from every single
- 26:20Speaker 1: legal expert and every attorney that they talk to about
- 26:23Speaker 1: this says, of course, the prosecution is going to retry this.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Of course, they're going to go after it again. So
- 26:28Speaker 1: we'll see if they're all wrong and if I'm wrong.
- 26:31Speaker 1: But I got a feeling you're going to hear today
- 26:33Speaker 1: they want to retry this. And I think they're going
- 26:36Speaker 1: to be much more careful about jury selection next time around.
- 26:40Speaker 2: Right, but remember, a DA is also an elected official
- 26:43Speaker 2: unless they get appointed by the governor there in the
- 26:45Speaker 2: Commonwealth like DAs do in New Jersey. I'm not sure
- 26:48Speaker 2: of that. But if, in fact, they stand for election,
- 26:52Speaker 2: I don't think the majority of the people in that
- 26:54Speaker 2: county want this to go to trial again. I really don't.
- 26:57Speaker 2: So we'll see.
- 26:59Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't matter. I mean, justice is what matters. No, no,
- 27:02Speaker 1: I understand.
- 27:03Speaker 2: But it's amazing.
- 27:04Speaker 1: Here we're even conversing about it now. And, you know,
- 27:07Speaker 1: in most cases, we talk about the victim almost all
- 27:09Speaker 1: the time. The victim, the victim, the victim. We have
- 27:12Speaker 1: three victims, three innocent children that are killed. Nobody talks
- 27:16Speaker 1: about them. And that's, to me, that's the only thing
- 27:19Speaker 1: I'm thinking about, that they should get some type of
- 27:22Speaker 1: semblance of justice.
- 27:23Speaker 2: The most powerful witness for the defense is the husband
- 27:28Speaker 2: who defends her. In ways that we didn't even know
- 27:32Speaker 2: originally in his initial testimony. So much more has come out.
- 27:37Speaker 2: To a jury? Yes. Does that matter?
- 27:39Speaker 1: So they're going to think about her state of mind
- 27:42Speaker 1: and not the fact that we have three small dead
- 27:44Speaker 1: bodies and that they were strangled. And that she planned
- 27:48Speaker 1: the whole thing and plotted the whole thing. Well, I'll
- 27:51Speaker 1: tell you what, then we're lost as a society because
- 27:54Speaker 1: that woman should be in jail for the rest of
- 27:56Speaker 1: her life. And now you have copycats from across the
- 27:59Speaker 1: country that think they're going to be just like Lindsay Clancy.
- 28:02Speaker 1: You got a woman outside of Chicago that hung her child.
- 28:06Speaker 1: Had him hanging from the rafters, dying. See what that starts?
- 28:10Speaker 1: See what this kind of talk starts? It's going to
- 28:12Speaker 1: start a national movement of sick, crazy mothers who now
- 28:17Speaker 1: already started. I didn't see that coming, but oh my God,
- 28:20Speaker 1: she was obsessed with this case.
- 28:22Speaker 2: But I tell you, after that 60 minutes interview with
- 28:25Speaker 2: the husband and his new wife, it's clear. If I'm Reddington, wow.
- 28:30Speaker 2: He didn't talk like that. When he was first on
- 28:33Speaker 2: the witness stand, remember, he was the prosecution first and
- 28:37Speaker 2: primary witness. If the prosecution doesn't call him, Reddington will
- 28:43Speaker 2: certainly call him.
- 28:44Speaker 1: No, I agree with you, but that's one witness in
- 28:47Speaker 1: a weeks-long case, and we do.
- 28:49Speaker 2: Have so much more.
- 28:50Speaker 1: Well, I think it'll take weeks and weeks and weeks.
- 28:51Speaker 1: That's what I just said, weeks-long case. But it can't
- 28:55Speaker 1: be the only thing they hang their hat on. As
- 28:57Speaker 1: a matter of fact, I think he's all but insignificant
- 29:01Speaker 1: except for the details he can give about when he
- 29:04Speaker 1: was told to leave the house and when he came
- 29:06Speaker 1: back in the house and when he found the children.
- 29:08Speaker 2: All the other stuff?
- 29:10Speaker 1: You know, it's great that he still loves his wife.
- 29:11Speaker 1: It's great that he doesn't want her to go to
- 29:13Speaker 1: jail forever. That's a person that was a loving husband
- 29:16Speaker 1: and still has feelings for her.
- 29:18Speaker 2: That's irrelevant. It's all irrelevant.
- 29:21Speaker 1: What's relevant is that she plotted and planned to kill
- 29:24Speaker 1: three children and that she looked at them in the
- 29:28Speaker 1: face while she strangled them. And so I don't think
- 29:32Speaker 1: there's any forgiveness for that.
- 29:34Speaker 2: I don't. I understand. I respect that. But I also
- 29:37Speaker 2: know there's jury nullification. You're going to have even more
- 29:40Speaker 2: demonstrators outside of that courthouse. I'm sure the prosecutor may
- 29:45Speaker 2: have thought about sequestering a jury if he decides to
- 29:48Speaker 2: go for a second prosecution.
- 29:50Speaker 4: Absolutely.
- 29:50Speaker 2: Absolutely. But it's a small town. It's a small county.
- 29:53Speaker 2: Everybody knows one another. So it's going to be extraordinarily difficult,
- 29:59Speaker 2: maybe a change of venue, but the prosecutor probably will
- 30:02Speaker 2: not want to give up his venue. But they've done
- 30:05Speaker 2: that before in high-profile cases, change the venue, get it
- 30:08Speaker 2: out of there. God, I hope you're wrong.
- 30:10Speaker 1: I hope you're wrong because we're lost as a society
- 30:13Speaker 1: if we let somebody strangle three children and there's no
- 30:16Speaker 1: punishment to be given for that, that we don't consider
- 30:19Speaker 1: that murder because she's going through some postpartum issues. Which,
- 30:24Speaker 1: by the way, if she was going through postpartum issues–
- 30:26Speaker 1: and I'll bring this up again– how did she plot
- 30:28Speaker 1: and plan that? I mean, how was she so evil
- 30:33Speaker 1: that she could plan how she could get her husband
- 30:36Speaker 1: out of the house to have elastic strings that she can–
- 30:42Speaker 1: strangle every one of them individually and chase after the
- 30:47Speaker 1: one to get them. See, they're the only facts that
- 30:49Speaker 1: I think that are relevant. Those facts that I'm laying
- 30:51Speaker 1: out now are the only facts that are relevant. Everything
- 30:54Speaker 1: else is just talk. Well, it's the way it's presented also.
- 30:57Speaker 2: I think the prosecutor was a little too hard, a
- 31:00Speaker 2: little too, the demeanor was no sympathy, no empathy. And
- 31:06Speaker 2: Reddington basically dominated. So if you're going to re-prosecute this,
- 31:11Speaker 2: I realize you'll probably use the same assistant district attorney,
- 31:14Speaker 2: the woman, I forget her name. But I think she's
- 31:17Speaker 2: got to approach it a little differently if she's going
- 31:19Speaker 2: to try to convince the jury to come to a
- 31:21Speaker 2: different conclusion.
- 31:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this jury was an aberration. I don't
- 31:28Speaker 1: think you're going to get a jury like that again
- 31:30Speaker 1: where there's a group of women who decided together that
- 31:33Speaker 1: the three children didn't matter. that what was more important
- 31:37Speaker 1: was a national statement to be made. That's going to
- 31:40Speaker 1: be extraordinarily rare, and I hope it doesn't happen again.
- 31:43Speaker 1: Maybe I just have a belief in justice that doesn't
- 31:46Speaker 1: exist anymore.
- 31:47Speaker 2: There was a majority women, but there's also two men
- 31:50Speaker 2: who joined them.
- 31:51Speaker 1: Right, who were berated into it, as we found out,
- 31:54Speaker 1: who were talked into it. They both talked.
- 31:56Speaker 2: The holdout juror said, yes, we haven't heard from the
- 31:59Speaker 2: other two who said we were.
- 32:00Speaker 4: Berated into it.
- 32:01Speaker 2: Well, we heard from one of them. Yeah, we did.
- 32:02Speaker 2: He did an interview.
- 32:03Speaker 1: So we heard from at least one of them, and
- 32:05Speaker 1: he said that at first he was going to convict,
- 32:08Speaker 1: and he was talked out of it. So, yeah, no,
- 32:10Speaker 1: I mean, it would make me sick to my stomach.
- 32:14Speaker 1: if she doesn't get convicted.
- 32:16Speaker 2: Well, my prediction is the DA will not seek a
- 32:20Speaker 2: second trial and will move for a plea bargain situation
- 32:23Speaker 2: with Reddington on behalf of his client.
- 32:25Speaker 1: Even though 100% of legal analysts, people that are actual attorneys,
- 32:28Speaker 1: say it's going to happen.
- 32:29Speaker 2: They've already lit the candles. They want that three-month, four-month
- 32:33Speaker 2: FaceTime on TV.
- 32:35Speaker 1: They don't want to be wrong either.
