- 0:07Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. That's the number,
- 0:11Speaker 1: eight hundred three two one zero seven to ten. You know,
- 0:15Speaker 1: these street takeovers are happening more and more. It started
- 0:21Speaker 1: it was really the Deblasio years, where you'd get these
- 0:24Speaker 1: guys with these motorcycles and dune buggies and cars just
- 0:31Speaker 1: racing around Manhattan, revving their engines in the middle of
- 0:34Speaker 1: the night, like, you know, twenty of them, like just
- 0:37Speaker 1: screwing up everything in Manhattan. Then they started to spread
- 0:40Speaker 1: out all over the place, Long Island other places, and
- 0:44Speaker 1: then they became more and more violent, more and more ugly,
- 0:47Speaker 1: and they had them all over Long Island now, especially
- 0:49Speaker 1: the South Shore, where a whole bunch of vehicles you
- 0:52Speaker 1: start racing around, spinning around, called wreaking havoc menacing people.
- 0:59Speaker 1: There was one this week where it just created total chaos,
- 1:02Speaker 1: and during the chaos, a bunch of them went in
- 1:05Speaker 1: and robbed the store too. So Long Island put together
- 1:08Speaker 1: a task force to go after them, and they've been
- 1:12Speaker 1: working on this and they're better and better at it.
- 1:14Speaker 1: A lot of these things are organized on social media,
- 1:17Speaker 1: so they have a street takeover task force. Watching social
- 1:21Speaker 1: media they find out where a gathering is going to be.
- 1:24Speaker 1: This week, they showed up at one of them, arrested
- 1:26Speaker 1: fifteen people, seized to seven vehicles, and made a lot
- 1:31Speaker 1: of arrests of other people that were involved in it.
- 1:33Speaker 1: So good news. They're finally cracking down on this stuff,
- 1:36Speaker 1: at least in Long Island Manhattan. That's another story. Anyway.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Let's take some calls. Eight hundred three to two one
- 1:43Speaker 1: zero seven to ten is the number. Let's go to
- 1:46Speaker 1: Neil in Brooklyn. Neil, how you doing?
- 1:49Speaker 2: Thank you? Mark. Two quick questions, Mark right. The first
- 1:52Speaker 2: one is did a serious polsters have any use at
- 1:56Speaker 2: all for the surveys that are circulate on social media?
- 2:00Speaker 1: No? No, okay no.
- 2:03Speaker 2: The second thing is, there's a guy that calls you
- 2:06Speaker 2: every couple of days yesterday was talking about subway sandwiches.
- 2:10Speaker 2: When he speaks, he sounds like Jackie Vernon when he
- 2:13Speaker 2: calls back.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Tell me if he thinks, all right, thanks for calling.
- 2:17Speaker 1: I have to explain to anybody under seventy who Jackie.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Jackie Vernon was a comedian back in the in the sixties.
- 2:24Speaker 1: He was kind of a pudgy guy, and he talked
- 2:26Speaker 1: like this. He was a very boring guy. That was
- 2:29Speaker 1: his act, being a very dull, boring guy. But he
- 2:31Speaker 1: was he was very funny. Uh yeah, you had two
- 2:36Speaker 1: kinds of polls. You got the public polls which you
- 2:38Speaker 1: see on TV, which you see in the news, and
- 2:41Speaker 1: these are you know, the college poll this college, that college,
- 2:45Speaker 1: this network, that newspaper. These are the public polls. They're
- 2:48Speaker 1: absolute junk, they're flimsy, they're cheap. They cost like twelve
- 2:52Speaker 1: hundred dollars to do one of those. They survey a
- 2:56Speaker 1: few hundred people, and it's never the right people. That's
- 2:59Speaker 1: they rig it in a couple of They don't use
- 3:01Speaker 1: likely voters, which is who you need to use. They
- 3:04Speaker 1: use what they call adults, which means it's whoever they picked,
- 3:08Speaker 1: which means they can go do it at the faculty
- 3:10Speaker 1: lounge at Columbia. And then they don't use the right demos.
- 3:14Speaker 1: This is all deliberate to slant the poll. They put
- 3:17Speaker 1: Republicans at twenty three percent of the sample, they should
- 3:21Speaker 1: be thirty six percent of the SAMP. So they rig
- 3:23Speaker 1: them like four different ways, and you get that's what
- 3:26Speaker 1: that's why they're always, always, always wrong, and they do
- 3:28Speaker 1: it deliberately because it's to hurt the Republican candidate. Now
- 3:31Speaker 1: that there's the real polls that the candidates use. These cost
- 3:36Speaker 1: like a million dollars a month. I mean, these are
- 3:38Speaker 1: dead serious, deadly accurate polls. It's not a survey of
- 3:42Speaker 1: three hundred people. It's a survey of twenty thousand people,
- 3:45Speaker 1: carefully scientifically selected. It's likely voters. They get just they
- 3:50Speaker 1: get just the right sample. I mean, like John McLaughlin
- 3:53Speaker 1: is the best of that. And the candidates use them.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Presidents and prime ministers and senators use those kind of
- 3:59Speaker 1: polls behind the scenes, what they call the internal polls.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Let's go to Mike and port Chester. Mike, how you
- 4:05Speaker 1: doing all right? Mark?
- 4:08Speaker 3: Hello again, I just called I have the answer to
- 4:12Speaker 3: affordability for these spoiled brats. Yes, they have to do
- 4:17Speaker 3: what I They have to do what I did. Worked
- 4:19Speaker 3: two jobs you did during Yeah, and when I was
- 4:24Speaker 3: going to college, I actually worked three different jobs.

- 5:00Speaker 3: don't have time to do all this craft that they're
- 5:03Speaker 3: doing in the street.
- 5:04Speaker 1: And what do you do now for a living.
- 5:07Speaker 3: I was a teacher for thirty five years in Harrison, Oh,
- 5:12Speaker 3: and now I'm an adjunct professor at the west Chester
- 5:16Speaker 3: Community College.
- 5:17Speaker 1: That's pretty good, very good. You see, Yeah, I'm doing
- 5:20Speaker 1: all right. There's a guy who made something of himself.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Very good.

- 5:42Speaker 1: of the stories you went to. It was Cresgy's, Woolworth's.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Woolworth's that was like the equivalent of a of a
- 5:49Speaker 1: Walmart or a Costco. Back then, it was just a
- 5:51Speaker 1: little place. It was nothing like a nothing like a
- 5:53Speaker 1: real costco. And if you went to one of those
- 5:55Speaker 1: Woolworth's kind of They always had a lunch counter that
- 5:58Speaker 1: it was kind of sadetic and there wasn't so great.
- 6:01Speaker 1: You go to Costco. Now they got a food court
- 6:04Speaker 1: with the best food in the world, literally the best
- 6:06Speaker 1: hot dog on earth. They now have this Sunday that's

- 7:01Speaker 4: Step on it, froggy.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. You see. Yeah, you kids today,
- 7:05Speaker 1: you don't realize. We had to actually go up to
- 7:08Speaker 1: the counter and ask for what we had to order
- 7:10Speaker 1: in person. We couldn't go on the app and tap
- 7:13Speaker 1: it in and then just go pick up the bag.
- 7:15Speaker 1: You had to actually go talk to somebody. It was unbelievable,
- 7:20Speaker 1: you kids today. Why if we wanted a book, we
- 7:23Speaker 1: had to go to a bookstore and buy it, and
- 7:25Speaker 1: then you had they'd put it in a bag and
- 7:27Speaker 1: you'd have to carry this bag home. There was no
- 7:30Speaker 1: Amazon to bring it right to your house. And if
- 7:32Speaker 1: you wanted food, you had to actually go get it.
- 7:36Speaker 1: There was no illegal alien on an electric bike running
- 7:39Speaker 1: over people to bring you your food. We didn't have
- 7:43Speaker 1: that back then. You know, now that they think about
- 7:46Speaker 1: it, it was pretty bad.
- 7:47Speaker 3: You know.
- 7:47Speaker 1: Sometimes I think back, how the hell did we do
- 7:49Speaker 1: a radio show? I can't remember how we did that.
- 7:52Speaker 1: You know. I got three big screens in front of me.
- 7:55Speaker 1: I got every news site in the world right here.
- 7:58Speaker 1: On this screen, I can look up anything a second.
- 8:01Speaker 1: Need to know something, I can google it in a second.
- 8:03Speaker 1: On this other screen, I got all the sound clips
- 8:06Speaker 1: I just click on them. Look, I just click and
- 8:09Speaker 1: let me tell you where it just like that and
- 8:10Speaker 1: it plays. How did we do a radio show like
- 8:13Speaker 1: twenty years ago? Well, if you go down the hall
- 8:16Speaker 1: and look at Jim Kurr's studio, he still gets newspapers
- 8:19Speaker 1: printed newspapers. He has a big table out in front
- 8:22Speaker 1: of the studio with all the newspapers printed out, all
- 8:26Speaker 1: the major newspapers. And there's a lot of kids that
- 8:29Speaker 1: work here that are like at twenty years old. They're
- 8:31Speaker 1: twenty one, and they walk by this table and they
- 8:34Speaker 1: look at these things and then they look at you
- 8:37Speaker 1: and go, what are these It's a newspaper. How does
- 8:43Speaker 1: it work? I said, You pick it up like this
- 8:45Speaker 1: and you open it like this. See you can turn
- 8:47Speaker 1: the paper. And they're fascinated. They've never seen anything like this.
- 8:52Speaker 1: But I think, get back then. You know, if you
- 8:53Speaker 1: go in the newsroom down the hall that way, there's
- 8:56Speaker 1: a newsroom with like twelve anchors sitting at these desks
- 8:59Speaker 1: and they all got him computer screens. But if you
- 9:02Speaker 1: went to a newsroom way back then, there were bookshelves.
- 9:06Speaker 1: You had have thousands of books, you had almanacs, sports almanac,
- 9:09Speaker 1: you had to have a Congressional almanac to look up
- 9:12Speaker 1: all the Congress. You had to have all these books
- 9:14Speaker 1: and things. So it's really a much better world nowadays.
- 9:18Speaker 1: It was more charming. Back then you had all these
- 9:21Speaker 1: books and bookcases and newspapers, and now you don't see anything.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Look at this, it's like so stark. It's just a
- 9:28Speaker 1: big empty table with a bunch of computer screens, but
- 9:31Speaker 1: much much much more efficient. Hey, coming up, we'll get
