- 0:09Speaker 1: The future of New York, the future of the country,
- 0:11Speaker 1: the future of the world. Here's me.
- 0:14Speaker 3: The countdown to the midterms. We are just 24 hours
- 0:17Speaker 3: from Election Day, but many New Yorkers have already made
- 0:20Speaker 3: their voices heard. More than 117,000 people in the five
- 0:24Speaker 3: boroughs cast their votes. Overall, more than 690,000 people in
- 0:28Speaker 3: the city cast their ballots since early voting first began.
- 0:32Speaker 3: That's according to the Board of Elections. In the most
- 0:34Speaker 3: high-profile local race, Governor Hochul and Republican challenger Bruce Blakeman
- 0:39Speaker 3: held multiple events, hoping to attract those still undecided. Lisa
- 0:43Speaker 3: Rosner has the latest on the candidate's.
- 0:44Speaker 4: Final sprint to Election Day.
- 0:46Speaker 5: Shaking hands with people at a Buffalo Bills bar in
- 0:49Speaker 5: Astoria and holding a baby alongside Mayor Mom Donnie and
- 0:52Speaker 5: Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is how Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul appealed
- 0:58Speaker 5: to voters Sunday, two days before Election Day.
- 1:01Speaker 1: Who's going to win by more points, Governor?
- 1:02Speaker 6: You or the Bills today?
- 1:04Speaker 1: Oh, that is a tough one.
- 1:05Speaker 7: Well, we're already up ten, so probably.
- 1:09Speaker 5: In Northport in Suffolk County, her Republican challenger, Nassau County
- 1:12Speaker 5: Executive Bruce Blakeman, campaigned alongside Congressman Nicola Loda.
- 1:16Speaker 8: The focus for both candidates is affordability.
- 1:19Speaker 5: Hochul telling Marcia Kramer on The Point Sunday.
- 1:22Speaker 9: For someone who says the expense of a new baby
- 1:24Speaker 9: is a lot, I just introduced a $ 1, 000 tax break
- 1:28Speaker 9: for families with a child under the age of four.
- 1:30Speaker 9: We're going to cut taxes.
- 1:32Speaker 10: First $ 100, 000, no matter what your bracket is, no state income.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Tax is a joint file. J.C.
- 1:38Speaker 11: Polanco is a political expert.
- 1:40Speaker 12: You have 1.7 million New Yorkers that have actually voted early.
- 1:46Speaker 1: This is amazing.
- 1:47Speaker 13: This is anywhere.
- 1:48Speaker 12: From 62% to 65% more people turning out early than
- 1:53Speaker 12: they did just four years ago.
- 1:55Speaker 5: On crime, Hochul said subway crime has decreased.
- 1:58Speaker 9: I put police officers there. I brought in National Guard officers.
- 2:01Speaker 9: In fact, I'm helping fund overtime for NYPD so they
- 2:05Speaker 9: can be visible.
- 2:06Speaker 5: Blakeman has criticized the bail reform laws under Hochul.
- 2:09Speaker 9: I got cut tax my first year in office, $ 150
- 2:12Speaker 9: million tax cut.
- 2:15Speaker 14: And I hired almost 900 new law enforcement professionals.
- 2:19Speaker 12: The polls are showing an even match between Governor Hochul
- 2:22Speaker 12: and Executive Blakeman in the suburbs.
- 2:24Speaker 5: And he says the odds are against Blakeman based on
- 2:27Speaker 5: the way New Yorkers have voted in the past, but
- 2:29Speaker 5: he could change the tide by winning over the majority
- 2:32Speaker 5: of independent voters. Blakeman will be traveling upstate on Monday
- 2:37Speaker 5: and in Manhattan. Hochul's public schedule says she'll be in
- 2:41Speaker 5: the city. Lisa Rosner, CBS News, New York.
- 2:45Speaker 3: 11th hour drama unfolded in Michigan's toss-up Senate race. Abdul
- 2:49Speaker 3: Al-Sayed's Democratic primary rival, Haley Stevens, crossed party lines to
- 2:53Speaker 3: endorse Mike Rogers. The Republican and Stevens spoke with reporters
- 2:57Speaker 3: after appearing together at a church service in Detroit. This
- 3:00Speaker 3: race is one of a handful that will determine which
- 3:02Speaker 3: party controls the Senate.
- 3:04Speaker 13: I'm honored to have Haley Stevens' support today.
- 3:07Speaker 1: I'm honored to have earned that vote.
- 3:09Speaker 14: I'm just less interested in the politics of it all
- 3:12Speaker 14: than I am in the.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Policy of it all.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Stevens said her endorsement doesn't mean she's switching parties.
- 3:18Speaker 1: I've got to make a decision for Tuesday night. Again,
- 3:22Speaker 1: I've been invited to speak at Bruce Blakeman's big election
- 3:26Speaker 1: night party at the Lannan in Eisenhower Park. Bruce and
- 3:29Speaker 1: I are like brothers, very, very, very, very close. Joe
- 3:32Speaker 1: Cairo is running the show there, though, so I would
- 3:35Speaker 1: not emcee the event. I would, as Chris Boyle said,
- 3:39Speaker 1: warm up the crowd, and then I'm sure they'll have
- 3:41Speaker 1: a million speakers. Joe Michael Petri will speak, and Janine Driscoll,
- 3:45Speaker 1: Joe Cairo, maybe Peter King, I don't know. But it
- 3:49Speaker 1: should be a big party on Long Island on Tuesday night.
- 3:53Speaker 1: At the same time, my friend Lauren Marie in Rockin' County,
- 3:56Speaker 1: she keeps texting me, and she says, we'd like you
- 4:00Speaker 1: to host, host, not just speak, host Mike Lawler's event
- 4:05Speaker 1: in Pearl River. I love that hotel, the Pearl River Hotel.
- 4:08Speaker 1: It's beautiful. I love Mike Lawler. How are you? I'm
- 4:11Speaker 1: as close to Mike as I am to Bruce. So
- 4:13Speaker 1: I've been wrestling all week with what to do. Now,
- 4:17Speaker 1: to be completely honest, the Lawler campaign has been much
- 4:23Speaker 1: more enthusiastic in getting me to their headquarters than Bruce.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Bruce is running around and trying to beat Hochul, and
- 4:32Speaker 1: he's the underdog in this race, so he's not really
- 4:35Speaker 1: worried about who's going to be there on Tuesday night.
- 4:38Speaker 1: But the Lawler campaign, Warren especially, has been very enthusiastic.
- 4:44Speaker 1: So I may have to make up my mind right here,
- 4:45Speaker 1: right now.
- 4:46Speaker 15: Wow.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:47Speaker 16: Wow.
- 4:48Speaker 1: And maybe Mr. Salt will help me do that. So
- 4:53Speaker 1: here he is, the amazing congressman. He's going to win again. Sorry,
- 4:57Speaker 1: Kate Conley. Mike Lawler. Michael, good morning, buddy. How are you?
- 5:01Speaker 11: I'm good, Sid.
- 5:02Speaker 1: How are you? I'm doing well. You're going to win,
- 5:05Speaker 1: aren't you?
- 5:07Speaker 11: We're going to win.
- 5:08Speaker 1: We're going to win.
- 5:08Speaker 17: We've got four days to go, and enthusiasm and momentum
- 5:13Speaker 17: are building, and we're getting everybody out to the polls.
- 5:16Speaker 17: We've had great turnout for early voting. But when 9
- 5:21Speaker 17: o'clock hits on Tuesday night, I am confident we're going
- 5:24Speaker 17: to be victorious.
- 5:26Speaker 18: Okay.
- 5:26Speaker 11: I believe you.
- 5:27Speaker 17: We are tight to the finish, but we're there.
- 5:30Speaker 1: I think you're going to win, too. But aside of that.
- 5:34Speaker 1: What is the argument? Why should I be in Rockland
- 5:37Speaker 1: County with Mike Lawler on Tuesday night and not on
- 5:40Speaker 1: Long Island? What's your argument, Mike?
- 5:44Speaker 17: Well, just remember, I did get you a ticket to
- 5:48Speaker 17: the State of the Union, even though you canceled. I
- 5:51Speaker 17: did get you a nice front row seat when the
- 5:54Speaker 17: president came to Rockland County.
- 5:56Speaker 1: That's true.
- 5:56Speaker 17: Even recognized you.
- 5:58Speaker 1: That's true.
- 5:59Speaker 17: Waved at you.
- 5:59Speaker 1: You got to shake his hand.
- 6:01Speaker 16: Yep.
- 6:01Speaker 2: Yep.
- 6:02Speaker 16: Well, true.
- 6:03Speaker 17: We've recognized you several times now.
- 6:06Speaker 1: You even made a Sid Rosenberg day in Rockland County.
- 6:10Speaker 1: That was huge. And I never forgot.
- 6:12Speaker 17: He declared it.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Yes, a day. And you did also, and I'm serious
- 6:17Speaker 1: about this, this was so nice, you took me and
- 6:19Speaker 1: Danielle on a late-night tour of the Capitol building. That
- 6:23Speaker 1: was awesome.
- 6:26Speaker 17: That, and we also introduced legislation with respect to dyspraxia.
- 6:32Speaker 17: And I don't know, Sid, I think we come out
- 6:36Speaker 17: on top here.
- 6:40Speaker 3: All right, so the TCS New York City Marathon took
- 6:43Speaker 3: over the five boroughs. Sheila Chepkiru of Kenya won the
- 6:46Speaker 3: women's race for the second time in three years, stealing
- 6:49Speaker 3: her victory in two hours, 24 minutes, and 36 seconds.
- 6:52Speaker 4: Lightning fast.
- 6:54Speaker 3: Andreas Holmgren of Sweden won the men's race in two hours,
- 6:56Speaker 3: six minutes, and one second. It was his very first
- 6:59Speaker 3: time running the New York City Marathon. Rob Flax has
- 7:02Speaker 3: more of today's excitement.
- 7:04Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right.
- 7:05Speaker 6: As the clock is counting down, the vibes are going
- 7:08Speaker 6: up as those final marathon finishers telling us they had
- 7:12Speaker 6: to dig deep and really.
- 7:13Speaker 4: Know what they were out here for to get it done.
- 7:16Speaker 1: The New York spirit is amazing. Amazing. Thank you so much,
- 7:19Speaker 1: each and every one. Yes, Queen!
- 7:20Speaker 19: You got the marathon!
- 7:22Speaker 6: Runners of all ages levels and countries pounding the pavement
- 7:29Speaker 6: for 26.2 brutal miles to end up for that photo
- 7:33Speaker 6: finish and those later finishers telling us for them it
- 7:36Speaker 6: was personal.
- 7:37Speaker 20: A year ago I sat on the couch watching my
- 7:40Speaker 20: wife run and now here we are doing it together
- 7:42Speaker 20: I've had a very sort of a not fit life
- 7:45Speaker 20: and I said okay you know how do I actually
- 7:46Speaker 20: get fitter so I said I'll sign up for something
- 7:49Speaker 20: which is almost impossible for my physique And I worked
- 7:53Speaker 20: and I finished it.
- 7:55Speaker 6: Especially for Kate Stevens, a cancer survivor running with her
- 7:58Speaker 6: sister who saved her life with a bone marrow transplant.
- 8:02Speaker 6: Both of them now running to raise money for Memorial
- 8:05Speaker 6: Sloan Kettering. Knowing that every dollar that we raise is
- 8:08Speaker 6: going directly back to the place that saved my life, like.
- 8:11Speaker 4: It gives me chills.
- 8:12Speaker 6: And all of them crediting the spectators who kept the
- 8:14Speaker 6: spirits high all throughout. Many of those spectators telling us
- 8:18Speaker 6: they were cheering for everyone they could, not just those
- 8:21Speaker 6: they recognize.
- 8:22Speaker 21: They have trained so hard and are here, so I
- 8:23Speaker 21: just love cheering everyone on.
- 8:25Speaker 6: And runners say it was the community that they found
- 8:27Speaker 6: along the way that kept them going and even keeps
- 8:30Speaker 6: them coming back to this marathon.
- 8:32Speaker 21: There were a couple of people on the way that
- 8:34Speaker 21: I rooted for them and they rooted for me.
- 8:36Speaker 1: The energy in New York is unmatched.
- 8:39Speaker 6: All told, nearly 60,000 people made it across that line
- 8:42Speaker 6: with music, tears, and cheers before it closed at 10 p.m.
- 8:47Speaker 1: There's a lot going on, obviously. Tomorrow is Election Day.
- 8:51Speaker 1: You heard in the open what Bruce Blakeman did yesterday,
- 8:54Speaker 1: what Kathy Hochul did yesterday, and the big Senate race
- 9:00Speaker 1: in Michigan. El-Sayed and Rodgers, the lady that El-Sayed beat
- 9:07Speaker 1: in the primary, Haley Stevens, she's actually endorsing the Republican
- 9:13Speaker 1: Mike Rodgers. President Trump has asked Stevens to jump ship
- 9:20Speaker 1: like John Fetterman may do and just become a Republican.
- 9:23Speaker 1: She has not agreed to do that, but she is
- 9:26Speaker 1: endorsing the Republican in their big election. Tomorrow, so much
- 9:33Speaker 1: to discuss in terms of Election Day. But we started
- 9:36Speaker 1: with the runner because we are still a New York show.
- 9:41Speaker 1: And while we'll do election talk the next two days
- 9:44Speaker 1: and have lots of these candidates on, I say this
- 9:47Speaker 1: every year. The best day in New York City is
- 9:52Speaker 1: New York Marathon Day. That's it. I had no idea
- 9:56Speaker 1: yesterday who was a Republican, who was a Democrat. who
- 10:01Speaker 1: was an Independent. I didn't know. I just know that
- 10:04Speaker 1: it was a beautiful day. Temperatures in the 60s, nice
- 10:09Speaker 1: and breezy. 60,000 runners showed up to run. Millions of spectators.
- 10:17Speaker 1: I believe over 2 million people all over the streets
- 10:21Speaker 1: of the five boroughs, and it was just a majestic day.
- 10:27Speaker 1: So my day, Norman Lou, started early. My beautiful wife, Danielle,
- 10:32Speaker 1: who was attempting her seventh New York City marathon, her
- 10:38Speaker 1: 41st marathon overall, she slept out. So she's got this
- 10:41Speaker 1: good buddy. Her name is Jessica Hockman. They became best
- 10:46Speaker 1: friends down in Boca Raton 20-plus years ago. And they
- 10:50Speaker 1: both joined. Well, they didn't know each other at the time.
- 10:53Speaker 1: They met at this runner's group, this Boca Raton runner's group,
- 10:57Speaker 1: and they became friendly. They would run together on weekends
- 11:00Speaker 1: and blah, blah, blah. Now, 20-plus years later, they've done
- 11:04Speaker 1: many marathons together. We've traveled together with Jessica, Big Sur, Europe,
- 11:10Speaker 1: New York City. They've done them all. So Jessica, she
- 11:13Speaker 1: lives in the Trump building, the one at– 69th and
- 11:19Speaker 1: 2nd Avenue. You know what's ironic? I mention my friends
- 11:22Speaker 1: all the time, Oren and Danielle's friend Paige. They live
- 11:26Speaker 1: in the same building. So Danielle was upstairs with Jessica
- 11:32Speaker 1: for the whole weekend, and yesterday, after I saw Danielle,
- 11:36Speaker 1: I went to that same apartment to watch Red Zone
- 11:39Speaker 1: football with Oren. They live in the same building, Oren
- 11:43Speaker 1: and Paige and this young girl Jessica. So, Danielle's gone
- 11:47Speaker 1: for the weekend. I've got Ava. I've got Gabriel. Everybody's
- 11:51Speaker 1: going out Saturday night for Halloween. Ava's got her two friends,
- 11:56Speaker 1: exchange students, two lovely kids, one from Italy, one from Brazil,
- 12:01Speaker 1: sleeping in the house, going out on Saturday night. So
- 12:05Speaker 1: I wake up Sunday morning, and I have to speak
- 12:08Speaker 1: at an event at the Museum of Jewish Heritage. It's
- 12:13Speaker 1: a big event, Rage Against Hate. You know this group,
- 12:18Speaker 1: Noam Shirat Hadin?
- 12:20Speaker 4: I have not heard of them, no.
- 12:21Speaker 1: Part of the Israel Law Center, this really, really special lady,
- 12:25Speaker 1: Nitsana Darshan Leitner. This is her group. They invited me
- 12:29Speaker 1: to speak a while ago, but I kept changing the
- 12:32Speaker 1: time because I knew I had to meet Danielle somewhere
- 12:35Speaker 1: on the marathon route, and I didn't want to miss her.
- 12:39Speaker 1: So I went to the city at 9. I took
- 12:41Speaker 1: Ava's friends with me. We had a nice breakfast together
- 12:44Speaker 1: at some Greek diner, George's, I think, right by Battery Park.
- 12:49Speaker 1: They went on their way eventually back to Pennsylvania to school,
- 12:53Speaker 1: and I went to speak. So I spoke. It was
- 12:56Speaker 1: a very, very big, enthusiastic Jewish crowd, obviously. some recognizable
- 13:01Speaker 1: faces that I see at other events. And I did
- 13:03Speaker 1: my thing, Norm, you know. And they went nuts. Yes, Lou,
- 13:07Speaker 1: they were even crying in the audience.
- 13:09Speaker 11: Oh, thank God.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Some lady was screaming, you're my favorite human being, which
- 13:14Speaker 1: is very nice. You're my favorite human being. So I just,
- 13:20Speaker 1: I floored the place, you know. Because when I speak,
- 13:24Speaker 1: first of all, nothing written. I know you guys are
- 13:26Speaker 1: used to that. Second of all, There were so many
- 13:29Speaker 1: things I talked about that were not necessarily anti-Semitism. I
- 13:35Speaker 1: talked about the fact that I had to go meet
- 13:37Speaker 1: my wife running the marathon today. I talked about the Jets,
- 13:42Speaker 1: who eventually lost at home again to the Raiders. And
- 13:46Speaker 1: then I talked a lot of politics, which I don't
- 13:48Speaker 1: think they wanted anybody to do, but they loved it
- 13:51Speaker 1: when I did. Why did they love it? And I
- 13:53Speaker 1: went on and on about the mayor in this city,
- 13:56Speaker 1: the governor in this state, some of these political races
- 14:00Speaker 1: around the country. I talked about me in the face
- 14:04Speaker 1: of the black guy on the subway who tried to
- 14:07Speaker 1: hurt that nice Jewish man going back to 2024. Had
- 14:11Speaker 1: all these stories in there, you know. And I spoke
- 14:14Speaker 1: for about 20-something minutes, and the crowd went nuts, and
- 14:17Speaker 1: I left. So I had my driver that morning drop
- 14:22Speaker 1: me off at the Bowling Green train station. This is
- 14:26Speaker 1: about 1130 yesterday morning. And I took the train, the
- 14:31Speaker 1: express train from Bowling Green to 86th Street and Second
- 14:36Speaker 1: Avenue because part of that run. They run right down
- 14:41Speaker 1: First Avenue in New York City. And Paige was keeping track.
- 14:46Speaker 1: She had Danielle's bib number of where she was. So
- 14:49Speaker 1: when I got off the train at 86th and 1st,
- 14:51Speaker 1: I was told Danielle was on 73rd and 1st. So
- 14:55Speaker 1: I knew I had to wait about 10 minutes before
- 14:57Speaker 1: Danielle and Jessica were going to run by me. And
- 15:01Speaker 1: as it turned out, they did. They saw me. I
- 15:04Speaker 1: put the video up. Some really nice spectator standing next
- 15:07Speaker 1: to me took a video. Didn't know her. When Danielle
- 15:10Speaker 1: and Jessica left and continued the run, this lady was like, hey,
- 15:14Speaker 1: if you want to take a video of that. And
- 15:15Speaker 1: you can see me hugging Danielle, kissing her, hugging Jessica,
- 15:19Speaker 1: go champ, go champ, go that type of thing. They
- 15:22Speaker 1: still had about, at that point I would say, a
- 15:25Speaker 1: couple of hours left, maybe an hour and a half.
- 15:28Speaker 1: And I made my way back to Oren's apartment to
- 15:31Speaker 1: watch football. But eventually, like I said, a couple hours later,
- 15:35Speaker 1: sometime around the second quarter of the Jet game, Danielle
- 15:40Speaker 1: and Jessica finished the race, and congratulations to my beautiful wife, Danielle,
- 15:47Speaker 1: who now has completed seven New York City marathons and
- 15:54Speaker 1: 41 marathons overall. She has hinted at retiring, but she
- 15:59Speaker 1: was so good yesterday. Like when the race was over,
- 16:02Speaker 1: she wasn't crippled. She wasn't exhausted. She was fine. So
- 16:09Speaker 1: my prediction, Norm, is that she'll do it again because
- 16:13Speaker 1: she was just so happy. I mean, I got to
- 16:16Speaker 1: tell you, if you don't ever go to one of
- 16:17Speaker 1: these things, you're really missing out. The people, just the spectators,
- 16:22Speaker 1: forget about the runners. All over New York City, Brooklyn
- 16:26Speaker 1: is a huge borough. They party like animals. They yell.
- 16:29Speaker 1: They scream. They got fans. No doubt about it, Brooklyn
- 16:32Speaker 1: probably wins today. But either way, all five boroughs, these
- 16:36Speaker 1: people are fantastic people. And when you're running this race,
- 16:40Speaker 1: which is a brutal race on your body, I don't
- 16:43Speaker 1: care how good you are. I mean, Danielle only lost
- 16:46Speaker 1: by nine seconds, and she's 57 years old, to Tiki Barber,
- 16:51Speaker 1: who was a pro ball running back in the National
- 16:54Speaker 1: Football League. He's done 18 marathons. She's done 41. So
- 17:00Speaker 1: the sense of accomplishment is immense. The people are great.
- 17:05Speaker 1: They yell. They scream. They don't even know you. They
- 17:08Speaker 1: don't even know you. Where else would you get that
- 17:12Speaker 1: type of support from literally millions of people? You're not
- 17:17Speaker 1: going to get it anyplace else except Marathon Sunday in
- 17:22Speaker 1: New York City. I'm walking around with a suit on
- 17:25Speaker 1: because I had done the speaking engagement earlier that morning
- 17:28Speaker 1: wearing my Trumpy pin. I was just waiting for somebody
- 17:31Speaker 1: to give me the stink eye, the snarly look, you know, nothing. Nothing. Hey,
- 17:37Speaker 1: your wife ran. Congratulations. Hey, your sister ran. Congratulations to you. Hey,
- 17:41Speaker 1: your brother ran. There was a 90-year-old guy. It took
- 17:45Speaker 1: him eight hours. But a 90-year-old man completed the marathon yesterday.
- 17:50Speaker 1: I believe his name is Marty Granoff. Either way, 90
- 17:54Speaker 1: years old, you see all kinds of folks.
- 17:57Speaker 15: He had a great shirt on, I think, if it's
- 17:59Speaker 15: the same person I saw.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Had to be.
- 18:01Speaker 15: So he had a shirt, and on the back of it,
- 18:04Speaker 15: as he's running, it says... If you can read this,
- 18:08Speaker 15: a 90-year-old is passing you on the marathon.
- 18:10Speaker 1: Isn't that fantastic? That's great. It was hilarious. I saw
- 18:15Speaker 1: a video of his son, his grandson. But you have
- 18:18Speaker 1: all kinds of people. You've got the pros, usually from Kenya.
- 18:23Speaker 1: Then you've got the folks in the wheelchairs. That's always
- 18:26Speaker 1: very inspiring. But just an amazing day. And then it's tradition,
- 18:32Speaker 1: you know, because Joe Tagapino called me. He goes, if
- 18:34Speaker 1: you want my two tickets in the club tonight for
- 18:37Speaker 1: the Rangers and the Edmonton Oilers, you can have them.
- 18:40Speaker 1: I said, Joseph, I love you, but it's tradition. After
- 18:43Speaker 1: the marathon, I take Danielle to dinner. For many years,
- 18:46Speaker 1: we went to the best steakhouse in the world, Peter
- 18:49Speaker 1: Luger in Brooklyn. But she wanted to stay in the
- 18:53Speaker 1: city last night. So I said, you know what? Let
- 18:57Speaker 1: me go to Chaz's restaurant. I just saw Parmentieri a
- 19:00Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, and he's got two great restaurants
- 19:04Speaker 1: where they serve great Italian food and great steaks. Right?
- 19:08Speaker 1: He's got one in White Plains, and he's got one
- 19:11Speaker 1: in Midtown Manhattan, not too far from the building where
- 19:15Speaker 1: both me and Danielle were in yesterday. So I reach
- 19:18Speaker 1: out to Chaz. I couldn't believe what I heard. Chaz says,
- 19:22Speaker 1: I love you. Congratulations to Danielle. But sorry to say this.
- 19:27Speaker 1: I've closed both of my restaurants. I didn't know that.
- 19:30Speaker 4: How did we not know that?
- 19:32Speaker 1: I never knew. September the 30th. So now we're talking
- 19:36Speaker 1: about about five weeks ago. Chaz closed both of his
- 19:41Speaker 1: and they're both great. I've been to both. The food
- 19:43Speaker 1: was terrific, but they're closed. Chaz Palminteri, as of September 30th, sold.
- 19:50Speaker 1: now we're in a bit of a quandary. The girls
- 19:53Speaker 1: are tired. It's getting dark out. They just ran 26 miles.
- 19:58Speaker 1: We're both inside the same building. She's upstairs with Jessica.
- 20:01Speaker 1: I'm watching football with Oren Page, Danielle, and Abe downstairs.
- 20:06Speaker 1: I said, let's make it easy. Right down the block.
- 20:09Speaker 1: is Beach Cafe. I love David Goodside. He's great to me.
- 20:12Speaker 1: And the Trumps love David Goodside. Elizabeth is there all
- 20:15Speaker 1: the time. Eric goes there. Lara used to go there.
- 20:19Speaker 1: So I convinced him. So we went, and David Goodside
- 20:22Speaker 1: did a tremendous job. You know, he takes very good
- 20:25Speaker 1: care of me. Makes me feel like a big star. And,
- 20:28Speaker 1: of course, Danielle, too. You walk in, all you saw
- 20:31Speaker 1: in that restaurant last night, and all over the city,
- 20:35Speaker 1: because we had to go get Danielle's car. She was
- 20:37Speaker 1: parked in our office garage, which is also in Midtown,
- 20:40Speaker 1: to drive back to Queens. So we were basically driving
- 20:43Speaker 1: in and around that Times Square area. All you saw
- 20:46Speaker 1: were orange jackets last night, those big orange New York
- 20:50Speaker 1: City Marathon jackets, because even on a nice day, most
- 20:55Speaker 1: of these runners are freezing afterwards. You know, they've used
- 20:59Speaker 1: up whatever they got left in their bodies, so they're
- 21:02Speaker 1: all wearing these orange jackets. And that's the first thing
- 21:05Speaker 1: we saw, walked into Beach Cafe, All these orange jackets,
- 21:09Speaker 1: all the medals. You see, today, when you walk around
- 21:12Speaker 1: New York City, you are going to see a lot
- 21:15Speaker 1: of people wearing their medals. Because the tourists that come here,
- 21:20Speaker 1: they don't go home last night. They go home at
- 21:23Speaker 1: some point tonight. Some will go home even tomorrow morning.
- 21:26Speaker 1: It's an off day. It's election day. So you're going
- 21:28Speaker 1: to see a ton of people walking around the five boroughs,
- 21:31Speaker 1: but specifically New York City today, wearing their medals. which
- 21:36Speaker 1: includes my wife and her friend Jessica. So all in all,
- 21:40Speaker 1: it was a spectacular marathon day. And congratulations to any
- 21:45Speaker 1: of you listening right now that did it. And if
- 21:49Speaker 1: you can do it, if your body can handle it
- 21:51Speaker 1: because it is really difficult and you haven't done it yet,
- 21:56Speaker 1: give it a shot. But either way, yesterday, no one
- 22:00Speaker 1: was a big day. Anything I'm missing, uh, Any bad
- 22:02Speaker 1: stories come out of the marathon?
- 22:04Speaker 22: No, but I was thinking about the guy that did
- 22:06Speaker 22: it in eight hours who's 90 years old, and I
- 22:08Speaker 22: was trying to think if I.
- 22:09Speaker 1: Could do it in eight hours.
- 22:11Speaker 4: I mean, eight hours, is that 26.2 miles?
- 22:15Speaker 1: Is that right? That's exactly right, yes. You probably could.
- 22:19Speaker 1: You can run and walk and probably do it in
- 22:21Speaker 1: eight hours, but... You never know because your body may
- 22:25Speaker 1: quit at 18 or 19 or 20. You just don't know.
- 22:28Speaker 22: You know, I've had friends, a fair amount of friends
- 22:30Speaker 22: who've run this one and other marathons, and it's fun
- 22:33Speaker 22: to go out with them afterwards because you've expended so
- 22:36Speaker 22: many calories, you know, fighting through that race that they're
- 22:40Speaker 22: just ravenous.
- 22:41Speaker 1: Oh, they can't wait to eat. No, they can't wait
- 22:43Speaker 1: to eat. And they'll eat something they would never, never
- 22:45Speaker 1: ordinarily eat. That's exactly right. Give me dessert. Give me
- 22:47Speaker 1: whatever it is. I don't care. Good side actually prepared food.
- 22:51Speaker 1: homemade chocolate pudding for everybody that came there last night.
- 22:55Speaker 1: So that was very, very nice. And it's over. So
- 23:00Speaker 1: now I'm waiting to see. She earned the Abbott Award.
- 23:04Speaker 1: I talk about this all the time. And I told
- 23:06Speaker 1: the audience in Battery Park this yesterday. Just like golf
- 23:10Speaker 1: and tennis, there are majors for the marathon. I told
- 23:13Speaker 1: you this a million times. So you got three domestic races, Boston,
- 23:17Speaker 1: New York, Chicago, and then three international races. London, Berlin,
- 23:23Speaker 1: and Tokyo. So Danielle got it. She earned it already.
- 23:26Speaker 1: But the wrinkle is this year, for the folks that
- 23:30Speaker 1: didn't get it, they added a seventh. And the seventh
- 23:35Speaker 1: is Australia. So Danielle said, well, that means I got
- 23:39Speaker 1: to do it. So she claims she's retiring. And New
- 23:42Speaker 1: York City is one of the most difficult courses because
- 23:46Speaker 1: of the hills in Central Park. Makes it a very
- 23:48Speaker 1: difficult course. But I heard it yesterday with Jessica last
- 23:52Speaker 1: night kind of whispering, when are we making plans to
- 23:55Speaker 1: go to Sydney, Australia? So it looks like they're going
- 23:59Speaker 1: to do it next year. So it may not be
- 24:01Speaker 1: over yet for Danielle. I know the sanitation department's got
- 24:05Speaker 1: a big job today. The marathon cleanup is a lot.
- 24:09Speaker 1: The trains were packed. You see people 7, 8, 9,
- 24:14Speaker 1: 10 at a time wearing sweatshirts with their relative's face
- 24:19Speaker 1: on it. People holding up. It looks like a little sign.
- 24:22Speaker 1: It's actually the face of their relative or friend running.
- 24:26Speaker 1: The enthusiasm is just unmatched. I'm telling you, folks, there's
- 24:30Speaker 1: nothing like that day. It's unbelievable. It really is. So congratulations, everybody.
- 24:35Speaker 1: But the big news, of course, is that tomorrow is
- 24:38Speaker 1: Election Day. Now, depending upon what you watch, for example,
- 24:43Speaker 1: if you watched MS Now this morning, which I did
- 24:46Speaker 1: because it's on, the Republicans are going to win nothing.
- 24:51Speaker 1: Bottom line, they're going to lose every race. They're down
- 24:55Speaker 1: a couple of points. You name it. Sherrod Brown has
- 24:57Speaker 1: the lead in Ohio. Susan Collins, according to MSNOW, is
- 25:02Speaker 1: now down six in Maine. You've got Roger Marshall. He's
- 25:06Speaker 1: now down five in Kansas. Dan Sullivan, he's now down
- 25:10Speaker 1: two in Alaska. Every big race, according to MSNOW, the
- 25:15Speaker 1: Democrats are winning. I'm not seeing Fox News this morning
- 25:20Speaker 1: because the sound is not on. I'm watching out of
- 25:22Speaker 1: the corner of my eye. I'm not seeing them put
- 25:24Speaker 1: up a big fight with that. So before we get
- 25:26Speaker 1: to the big local race... which is Blakeman versus Hochul.
- 25:30Speaker 1: What are you seeing, Noam, one day away from the
- 25:34Speaker 1: races around the country? Big day coming up tomorrow.
- 25:37Speaker 22: Well, there's always surprises, right, that we don't expect to happen.
- 25:40Speaker 22: And some of these races are that are closer within
- 25:43Speaker 22: the margin of error. And remember, it's a science at
- 25:45Speaker 22: the end of the day, polling, and sometimes science gets
- 25:47Speaker 22: it wrong.
- 25:48Speaker 1: So that'll happen.
- 25:49Speaker 4: There'll be some of these races will be like, oh, well,
- 25:51Speaker 4: they said this person was up by three points and
- 25:53Speaker 4: they lose.
- 25:55Speaker 22: And I'll point to Texas because they seem to always
- 25:57Speaker 22: get Texas wrong. Now, I know James Tallarico has been
- 26:00Speaker 22: in the lead since Labor Day.
- 26:02Speaker 1: And last I saw, that lead went from three to six.
- 26:04Speaker 4: Yeah, it depends on which poll you look at.
- 26:06Speaker 22: But the Republicans thought, if we dump enough money into
- 26:10Speaker 22: this race in the last three or four weeks, we
- 26:12Speaker 22: could potentially change the course of this. And it looks
- 26:15Speaker 22: like in some cases, I saw another poll where it
- 26:17Speaker 22: looked like it was essentially dead even.
- 26:18Speaker 1: So it may work.
- 26:20Speaker 22: They may have dumped enough money, resources, the president was
- 26:22Speaker 22: there three or four times, the vice president there a
- 26:24Speaker 22: bunch of times.
- 26:25Speaker 4: All that stuff makes a difference. So we'll see.
- 26:28Speaker 22: And give the president lots of credit because it's taken
- 26:31Speaker 22: an enormous amount of energy to show up in all
- 26:33Speaker 22: these places where the races were closed.
- 26:35Speaker 4: He was in Iowa. He was in Florida on Friday. Yesterday,
- 26:38Speaker 4: was he Kansas?
- 26:40Speaker 11: Yes.
- 26:40Speaker 4: I've been all over the place.
- 26:41Speaker 1: No, Kansas or Iowa. I forget which one.
- 26:44Speaker 4: He was in both states yesterday.
- 26:45Speaker 1: Both this weekend.
- 26:46Speaker 18: Yes.
- 26:46Speaker 23: So.
- 26:47Speaker 22: He's trying to drag these people across the finish line,
- 26:50Speaker 22: the ones who are in closer races.
- 26:51Speaker 4: And at the end, he may be able to do it.
- 26:53Speaker 1: We're going to see, talking about Florida, my friend Scott Singer,
- 26:56Speaker 1: who spent many years as the mayor of Boca Raton,
- 26:59Speaker 1: where I lived for 16 years. He's now running for
- 27:02Speaker 1: Congress against Jared Moskowitz, a popular Jewish Democrat. And at
- 27:09Speaker 1: last look, Scott Singer was winning.
- 27:11Speaker 11: I was shocked.
- 27:13Speaker 1: He sent me a text last week, thanked me, and said,
- 27:16Speaker 1: can I come back on? I go, Scott, it's New York.
- 27:19Speaker 1: He goes, Sid, you've got a big audience in Florida.
- 27:21Speaker 1: So he's coming back in about 25 minutes. And he
- 27:25Speaker 1: has a chance to beat Jared Moskowitz down in Florida.
- 27:29Speaker 1: They're also saying that governor's race between David Jolly and
- 27:33Speaker 1: Byron Donalds is very, very close. Not a win just
- 27:37Speaker 1: yet for Byron. But the big story, I think, from
- 27:41Speaker 1: the weekend was the Michigan race. And I mentioned it
- 27:44Speaker 1: at the very top of the broadcast this morning. Haley Stevens,
- 27:48Speaker 1: who lost the primary to Mohammed Abdul El-Sayed. Haley Stevens
- 27:56Speaker 1: has now crossed party lines. And this weekend, this was shocking.
- 28:02Speaker 1: She endorsed the Republican Mike Rogers. Again, she is falling
- 28:07Speaker 1: short of switching parties. So is John Fetterman at this point.
- 28:11Speaker 1: I'm sure both are thinking about it. But here she is,
- 28:15Speaker 1: Haley Stevens Lewis, cut number two, saying, no thanks, El Sayed.
- 28:20Speaker 1: I'd rather have Mike Rogers cut number two.
- 28:23Speaker 21: Hey, Michigan, as you may have seen, our Democratic nominee
- 28:27Speaker 21: for U.S.
- 28:27Speaker 7: Senate, Abdul, said that I was no.
- 28:30Speaker 21: Longer welcome in his campaign and that I should stay away.
- 28:35Speaker 7: And he's right.
- 28:36Speaker 21: And that's why I am endorsing Mike Rogers for the
- 28:41Speaker 21: United States Senate today.
- 28:43Speaker 7: I don't belong in Abdul's campaign.
- 28:46Speaker 21: I do not stand with Hassan Piker, who gets trafficked
- 28:50Speaker 21: on our college campuses.
- 28:51Speaker 7: A dear friend of mine earlier.
- 28:54Speaker 21: Today was saying that education is on the ballot.
- 28:59Speaker 7: And she's absolutely right.
- 29:01Speaker 21: And what our students see, what our children see, and
- 29:05Speaker 21: who we are, as Michiganders is not hate and is
- 29:10Speaker 21: not what we are getting out from our Democratic nominee
- 29:14Speaker 21: right now.
- 29:15Speaker 7: So I am just one person. I love this state.
- 29:19Speaker 21: As some of you know, I've, you know, run a
- 29:23Speaker 21: campaign saying that it was a love letter to Michigan,
- 29:26Speaker 21: and I'm here to declare who we are as Michiganders.
- 29:30Speaker 7: This is Phil Hart's seat for the U.S.
- 29:33Speaker 1: Senate.
- 29:33Speaker 21: This is the conscience of the Senate right now and
- 29:37Speaker 21: our Michigan moment. And I'm just letting you know where
- 29:40Speaker 21: I am. I'm still a very proud Democrat. I still
- 29:44Speaker 21: very much believe in everything I voted for and said,
- 29:48Speaker 21: and I've worked really hard and will continue to do
- 29:53Speaker 21: so in all the ways life's opportunities afford.
- 29:57Speaker 7: Godspeed and love you all so much.
- 30:00Speaker 1: Well, it turns out she's very upset that Abdul El-Sayed
- 30:04Speaker 1: will not condemn anti-Semitism. And when I tell you this,
- 30:09Speaker 1: you'll understand why. Believe it or not, Haley Stevens' fiancée
- 30:15Speaker 1: is a Jewish Democrat. Did you know that, Noam? I did. Oh,
- 30:19Speaker 1: you did. Well, Trump was on the stump, as Noam
- 30:22Speaker 1: pointed out, over the weekend. And he reacted to Haley
- 30:27Speaker 1: Stevens endorsing Mike Rogers... In Michigan, he said Mike Rogers
- 30:32Speaker 1: is apple pie. Here he is, President Trump, on the
- 30:36Speaker 1: Haley Stevens endorsement, Lewis. Cut number four.
- 30:41Speaker 18: This morning from Michigan, Congresswoman Haley Stevens, who, if you remember,
- 30:45Speaker 18: she was going to be like 25 points down. Everybody
- 30:49Speaker 18: thought it was going to be a walk. A lot
- 30:51Speaker 18: of people think she won, but he won by like
- 30:54Speaker 18: a half a point.
- 30:55Speaker 1: Remember that whole evening? It took days.
- 30:59Speaker 2: Days.
- 31:00Speaker 18: But we've you know, we just had her. It was
- 31:03Speaker 18: just an incredible thing. She just went out and she
- 31:06Speaker 18: endorsed Mike Rogers and Mike Rogers is doing well.
- 31:10Speaker 11: He's apple pie.
- 31:12Speaker 1: He's apple pie.
- 31:12Speaker 18: Mike Rogers is apple pie.
- 31:16Speaker 15: And you know what this country needs?
- 31:17Speaker 1: A little apple pie.
- 31:18Speaker 16: We don't need that.
- 31:19Speaker 18: We don't need the communists, the jihadists, the Muslim Brotherhood.
- 31:24Speaker 1: We need apple pie.
- 31:25Speaker 15: Here's apple pie.
- 31:26Speaker 11: It'll be good.
- 31:28Speaker 13: We got to get him in.
- 31:29Speaker 18: I hope we get him in.
- 31:30Speaker 15: I campaigned pretty hard for him.
- 31:33Speaker 1: Apple pie. So then Trump went on to ask Haley
- 31:37Speaker 1: Stevens to join us. Come to the good side. Come
- 31:42Speaker 1: to the Republican Party. President Trump, cut number five.
- 31:47Speaker 18: Haley said what few people are willing to say.
- 31:50Speaker 11: I think it probably.
- 31:52Speaker 18: I'd love her to join the Republican Party, actually.
- 31:54Speaker 1: I think that could happen, maybe.
- 31:57Speaker 18: But she showed great and almost unprecedented loyalty to the
- 32:01Speaker 18: great people of Michigan, and that's another important election for us.
- 32:05Speaker 16: We don't want to have a jihadist.
- 32:08Speaker 1: Jihadist. I wish you would say the same thing about Mamdani. God,
- 32:11Speaker 1: it just... I love when he says that about El-Sayed,
- 32:15Speaker 1: but it just infuriates me that he goes out of
- 32:18Speaker 1: his way to be nice to the radical... Islam Jihad
- 32:22Speaker 1: dickhead that was sitting in a Queens bar yesterday watching
- 32:26Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills with our wretched head governor and the
- 32:31Speaker 1: communist AOC. He doesn't talk like that about Mamdani, and
- 32:35Speaker 1: I still don't get it. And don't give me the
- 32:38Speaker 1: stupid he's playing checkers, not chess, or whatever, chess, not checkers.
- 32:42Speaker 1: You know very little about the president compared to me, okay?
- 32:46Speaker 1: No one can figure this out. His own daughter-in-law can't
- 32:48Speaker 1: figure it out. It makes no sense. The way he
- 32:51Speaker 1: talks about Abdul El-Sayed, he should be saying the same
- 32:54Speaker 1: exact things about Mamdani. Am I wrong about that?
- 32:57Speaker 24: No?
- 32:58Speaker 16: No.
- 32:59Speaker 4: In fact, the two of them spoke over the weekend,
- 33:01Speaker 4: the mayor and the president.
- 33:02Speaker 1: What do you mean they spoke? They spoke over the weekend. Oh,
- 33:04Speaker 1: I know that. Yes, they spoke to each other, you mean.
- 33:06Speaker 1: They did.
- 33:07Speaker 22: They had a conversation that was related to that horrible
- 33:09Speaker 22: story out of the Bronx where.
- 33:11Speaker 4: That 15-year-old was shot and killed.
- 33:12Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
- 33:13Speaker 4: Well, he was from Ghana.
- 33:14Speaker 7: Ghana.
- 33:14Speaker 22: And his mother's still in Ghana. And so the mayor
- 33:17Speaker 22: called the president and said, can you expedite her visa
- 33:20Speaker 22: so she can get her for her son's funeral?
- 33:22Speaker 4: And he said he would.
- 33:23Speaker 1: I'm sure he would, yeah. Okay, that one he got
- 33:25Speaker 1: the win. He wanted to get Oscar Belgao out. You know,
- 33:29Speaker 1: the guy's got a long rap sheet. He's a gangbanger.
- 33:32Speaker 1: He's a drug dealer. Dangerous guy. And this idiot mayor
- 33:37Speaker 1: had the balls to call Trump and Mark Wayne Mullen
- 33:40Speaker 1: to get him released. And they both said, are you
- 33:42Speaker 1: effing nuts? But on this one, of course, Trump is
- 33:44Speaker 1: a good man. And he said yes. Anybody would have
- 33:47Speaker 1: said yes to that. So Trump goes on to talk
- 33:49Speaker 1: about El-Sayed. He really wants El-Sayed to take a beating.
- 33:54Speaker 1: When Trump goes the word ass in there, you know,
- 33:58Speaker 1: he wants a big win. So this is Trump on
- 34:01Speaker 1: what he's hoping for in Michigan, Louis. Cut number six. Mohammed.
- 34:05Speaker 1: I call him Mohammed, not Abdul.
- 34:07Speaker 16: You know what?
- 34:07Speaker 18: I called him Mohammed. And they did it for certain reasons.
- 34:11Speaker 18: Number one, he said, why is he calling me? Because
- 34:14Speaker 18: I'm president, Abdul, and I have the right to call
- 34:16Speaker 18: you whatever the hell I want.
- 34:17Speaker 1: I love it. I have the right to call you
- 34:20Speaker 1: whatever I want. Dick-based jihad.
- 34:23Speaker 18: And we don't want to have people that are going
- 34:25Speaker 18: to destroy our country, Abdul. He's an arrogant guy. Do
- 34:28Speaker 18: you ever see him where he's being questioned? They said
- 34:31Speaker 18: I was arrogant. Now they find me to be an
- 34:33Speaker 18: extremely nice gentleman.
- 34:35Speaker 11: You know it. The level of hatred.
- 34:37Speaker 1: The guy asks him a normal question. What, Rick?
- 34:40Speaker 18: Do you have to ask me that question?
- 34:42Speaker 4: He's a disaster.
- 34:43Speaker 1: He's a nasty guy.
- 34:45Speaker 18: And hopefully he gets his ass kicked because that's what
- 34:47Speaker 18: he does.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Nice ass kicking. That'd be nice. And then Trump goes
- 34:53Speaker 1: on like he did with Kamala Harris, married to a Jew,
- 34:56Speaker 1: a crappy Jew, an embarrassing Jew, Doug Emhoff. Remember him?
- 35:01Speaker 1: What a loser he is. Same type of Jew as...
- 35:04Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders and Chuck Schumer and Jamie Raskin and Jerry Nadler,
- 35:09Speaker 1: all these losers. So Trump goes, if you're in Michigan
- 35:14Speaker 1: and you're a Jew, let me take it a step further.
- 35:17Speaker 1: If you're a Michigan and you're black, okay, and you
- 35:20Speaker 1: vote for El Sayed, you're nuts. Trump, cut number seven.
- 35:26Speaker 18: And they have a guy running now. Who's definitely Muslim Brotherhood.
- 35:32Speaker 18: He said he's not. But, you know, check his mother,
- 35:34Speaker 18: check his sister, check his notes. You know, everything disappeared
- 35:37Speaker 18: from his life, Tim. Everything, Governor, everything in his life
- 35:41Speaker 18: has disappeared from one year back. It's like, but when
- 35:45Speaker 18: we find some of the things he said were horrible.
- 35:49Speaker 18: If you're black or if you're Jewish. And if you
- 35:54Speaker 18: vote for Abdul.
- 35:56Speaker 1: You're crazy. Yes.
- 35:57Speaker 11: Okay.
- 35:58Speaker 1: You're crazy. Well said. That's right. Crazy. You're stupid is
- 36:02Speaker 1: what you are.
- 36:03Speaker 21: All right.
- 36:03Speaker 1: Let's give Abdul El-Sayed his one opportunity to speak. He
- 36:07Speaker 1: did react to the lady he beat in the primary,
- 36:11Speaker 1: Haley Stevens. Crossing party lines to endorse his opponent, Mike Rogers.
- 36:17Speaker 1: Here he is, Muhammad Abdul El-Sayed. Cut number three.
- 36:22Speaker 14: Do you believe Haley Stevens is hurting the ticket by
- 36:25Speaker 14: raising the ad, raising these issues? Like, again, we are
- 36:29Speaker 14: out here having conversation after conversation. I just really don't
- 36:31Speaker 14: think any of this matters. That's why I told you
- 36:33Speaker 14: it's like not really of relevance to Michigan voters. Most
- 36:35Speaker 14: people don't care about this. But most people are worried
- 36:38Speaker 14: right now about who is going to bring down the prices.
- 36:41Speaker 14: Most people are worried about whether or not they're going
- 36:42Speaker 14: to be able to afford their rent next month. And
- 36:44Speaker 14: they're going to have an opportunity to vote like it.
- 36:48Speaker 14: Those are the issues of this campaign. I just don't
- 36:49Speaker 14: spend much of my time thinking about these sort of
- 36:52Speaker 14: personality issues. Much respect to the Congresswoman. We had a
- 36:56Speaker 14: hard-fought primary. That primary ended in August. I'm focused now
- 37:00Speaker 14: on beating Mike Rogers. I hope that every Democrat, frankly,
- 37:03Speaker 14: I hope that everybody who's worried about the state of
- 37:05Speaker 14: our democracy, worried about the ability to afford gas and groceries,
- 37:08Speaker 14: worried about ending illegal wars or ending tariff wars is
- 37:12Speaker 14: with me in that fight. And so that's what I'm
- 37:13Speaker 14: going to be focused on. These other things are less
- 37:15Speaker 14: of a concern.
- 37:16Speaker 1: All right, so let me get back to the local race.
- 37:18Speaker 1: So yesterday at some point, you know, the Bills, of course,
- 37:21Speaker 1: took on the Baltimore Ravens. It took one play, one
- 37:25Speaker 1: play for Lamar Jackson, the Ravens quarterback, to get hurt again.
- 37:30Speaker 1: And now I think he's probably done for the year.
- 37:32Speaker 1: Then their backup quarterback got hurt. So the Ravens had
- 37:35Speaker 1: to play their third-string quarterback, Yesterday, this poor guy, this
- 37:40Speaker 1: poor bastard, I think he worked at New Park Pizza
- 37:43Speaker 1: about six months ago. See what I did there?
- 37:46Speaker 15: Well, he knows how to make a good pizza.
- 37:47Speaker 1: Yes, he can make a good pie. Now he's playing
- 37:50Speaker 1: NFL football against the Bills. So, of course, the Bills
- 37:52Speaker 1: went on to make very easy work of the Ravens,
- 37:55Speaker 1: beat them 36-10. The Bills are going to win that
- 37:58Speaker 1: AFC East, even though the Patriots won again. They beat
- 38:01Speaker 1: Miami yesterday. But there's a Buffalo Bills bar in Astoria, Queens.
- 38:07Speaker 1: There are many Buffalo Bills bars, but this specific one
- 38:10Speaker 1: in Astoria, Queens, in attendance yesterday, is the most famous
- 38:16Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills fan, and that's the wretched governor, Kathy Hochul.
- 38:20Speaker 1: Even though, you know, Andrew Cuomo is a big Buffalo
- 38:23Speaker 1: Bills fan. What a group of greats so far, right?
- 38:25Speaker 1: How about that? Kathy Hochul loves the Bills. Andrew Cuomo
- 38:29Speaker 1: loves the Bills. No one on that team can ever
- 38:32Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl. As great as Josh Allen is,
- 38:35Speaker 1: they can't win a damn Super Bowl. She's in the
- 38:38Speaker 1: bar yesterday. And who comes with a big hug to
- 38:41Speaker 1: greet her?
- 38:42Speaker 13: Mamdani.
- 38:43Speaker 1: I'm sure you saw the video. Who else is with them?
- 38:46Speaker 1: This is quite the trio. AOC. So you can laugh
- 38:51Speaker 1: all you want, but the truth is, the truth is,
- 38:54Speaker 1: those are three, right? They're all horrible people, terrible politicians.
- 39:01Speaker 1: Those are three of the most powerful people in our
- 39:05Speaker 1: country today. Because one will be if she wins, if
- 39:09Speaker 1: she wins, and if Hashem is good to us, she won't.
- 39:13Speaker 1: But the governor of New York is in a very,
- 39:15Speaker 1: very lofty position. The other two are basically the base
- 39:19Speaker 1: of the Democrat Party, Mamdani and AOC. Can you argue
- 39:23Speaker 1: any of that, Noam? No, I think you're right. The
- 39:26Speaker 1: three of them sitting there watching the Bills beat the Ravens.
- 39:29Speaker 1: my guy blakeman is working his ass off he's in
- 39:32Speaker 1: the northern part of the state he's back in the
- 39:35Speaker 1: city he's going to join me today do his last
- 39:38Speaker 1: radio appearance with me today he was on with me
- 39:40Speaker 1: about a hundred times and he announced he's running and
- 39:44Speaker 1: he was great in fact i woke up on saturday
- 39:47Speaker 1: morning i went to vote at the jade I guess,
- 39:50Speaker 1: what would you call that place? They have events there.
- 39:53Speaker 1: The Jade Event Place on 129. On 129. I know
- 39:55Speaker 1: where you voted. Yeah. And went across the street, saw
- 39:59Speaker 1: my great friend Muhammad, had myself a great bagel. Is
- 40:02Speaker 1: that Rockaway Bagels?
- 40:05Speaker 15: It might be. I know the spot.
- 40:06Speaker 1: Yeah. Muhammad does a great job. And I did a
- 40:09Speaker 1: video outside endorsing Bruce Blakeman and Mozzie Pillop, along with
- 40:14Speaker 1: the rest of that great Long Island team. I didn't
- 40:16Speaker 1: mention La Petrie and Driscoll and everybody else. I mentioned Bruce...
- 40:19Speaker 1: And Mozzie. But this guy was running around working all weekend.
- 40:24Speaker 1: He's hanging out watching the Bills game. Clearly not all
- 40:27Speaker 1: that worried about tomorrow's results. So give me something on
- 40:31Speaker 1: this big race here locally, which is the biggest one
- 40:35Speaker 1: for us. Hochul versus Blakeman.
- 40:38Speaker 4: Well, early voting was big.
- 40:40Speaker 22: So 1.7 million New Yorkers voted over the last seven days,
- 40:44Speaker 22: about 600,000.
- 40:44Speaker 1: Did all 1.7 vote for Bruce? We don't know.
- 40:49Speaker 22: But if you add all the numbers together, right? So
- 40:52Speaker 22: you're saying 1.7, that's much bigger than the last midterms
- 40:55Speaker 22: during early voting.
- 40:56Speaker 4: And then you.
- 40:57Speaker 22: Break down Republicans versus Democrats. You would think at the
- 41:01Speaker 22: end of the day, of course, that favors the governor.
- 41:02Speaker 22: There's a lot more Democrats than there are Republicans.
- 41:05Speaker 1: But you can make the point that Republicans very rarely vote.
- 41:09Speaker 1: So if the numbers are going up that dramatically, maybe
- 41:13Speaker 1: Republicans are paying attention and they've come to the realization
- 41:17Speaker 1: that Bruce can't win. Zarifa can't win. Hernandez can't win
- 41:22Speaker 1: unless they vote. Because the numbers... Okay, we have a
- 41:25Speaker 1: lot more Democrats. If they're going up, that may lead
- 41:29Speaker 1: you to believe that Republicans are out there voting. That's possible.
- 41:32Speaker 22: And then the second part of that is Republicans tend
- 41:35Speaker 22: not to be early voters.
- 41:36Speaker 4: They tend to want to vote on election day.
- 41:38Speaker 1: And yet every Republican that I know voted early. From
- 41:42Speaker 1: Brian Kilmeade to Daniel Rosenberg to Lou Ruffino. Every Republican
- 41:48Speaker 1: I know has voted early. So I think they're catching on, right?
- 41:53Speaker 1: You got to beat them at their own game. I
- 41:55Speaker 1: don't think Republicans now are all waiting until tomorrow. I'm
- 42:00Speaker 1: sure the majority are. But very anecdotal, the people that
- 42:04Speaker 1: I know in the business, relatives and friends, Republicans have
- 42:09Speaker 1: all voted.
- 42:10Speaker 22: Well, and then anecdotally as well, the lowest number of
- 42:14Speaker 22: early voters was on Staten Island.
- 42:16Speaker 4: Which is, you know, a Republican base.
- 42:19Speaker 1: You're going to win there anyway. Lenny Chiazzo, thank you.
- 42:22Speaker 1: Beach Bagels. Yeah, Rock Bay Beach Bagels. My guy, Muhammad.
- 42:24Speaker 1: I love that guy. He calls me Seth every day
- 42:28Speaker 1: for five years. But he's so nice to me, I
- 42:30Speaker 1: don't even care. At one point, Daniel goes, are you
- 42:33Speaker 1: going to correct him? He calls you Seth. Your name
- 42:35Speaker 1: is Sid. I think one time I tried to correct him.
- 42:38Speaker 1: I may have corrected him. And then the next day
- 42:41Speaker 1: it was, hey, Seth. So I stopped doing that. But
- 42:43Speaker 1: he's a wonderful guy. He's a Republican.
- 42:45Speaker 15: At least he knows you.
- 42:46Speaker 11: That's good.
- 42:46Speaker 1: No, he knows me? Oh, he makes a big deal
- 42:48Speaker 1: when I walk in. He's a Republican Muslim. How about that?
- 42:52Speaker 1: Great guy. Loves to look at my phone with pictures
- 42:54Speaker 1: of me and President Trump. And makes a very good bagel.
- 42:57Speaker 1: With lock spread, that's all I care about.
- 42:59Speaker 4: He's a huge fan of Seth and Friends in the morning.
- 43:02Speaker 1: Yes, he loves Seth and Friends in the morning. Sid who? Who?
- 43:05Speaker 11: Sid?
- 43:05Speaker 1: So we don't really know anything other than they're turning
- 43:09Speaker 1: out in big numbers. We don't know if that's good
- 43:10Speaker 1: for us or bad for us. We're going to know soon.
- 43:14Speaker 1: I spoke to somebody. I am not going to give
- 43:16Speaker 1: away this person who made me so depressed on Saturday.
- 43:21Speaker 1: This is a person in the know. That's all I'm
- 43:23Speaker 1: going to say. In the know. And this person said
- 43:26Speaker 1: to me, I'm not going to tell you the gender.
- 43:29Speaker 15: Don't say any of it. I don't need to.
- 43:32Speaker 1: This is going to depress you. Good.
- 43:33Speaker 15: Then I'm leaving the room.
- 43:34Speaker 1: I know. I'm sorry that the governor race will be
- 43:37Speaker 1: called by 8 o'clock tomorrow night. Who said that? I
- 43:41Speaker 1: can't tell you that. The race will be called by
- 43:44Speaker 1: 8 o'clock. Give us a hint. No hints.
- 43:46Speaker 15: Well, how do they know?
- 43:47Speaker 1: I said.
- 43:48Speaker 4: Yeah, they don't know. There's no way to know.
- 43:49Speaker 1: Well, this person is in the know.
- 43:51Speaker 4: But they're guessing that's how it's going to end.
- 43:52Speaker 1: No, this person's a politician.
- 43:55Speaker 18: So?
- 43:55Speaker 1: All right, that's all.
- 43:56Speaker 12: I know.
- 43:56Speaker 1: We did this.
- 43:57Speaker 11: I know.
- 43:58Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I talk to people. If I'm going
- 44:01Speaker 1: to relay this story, that it's not just Irv walking
- 44:05Speaker 1: the streets in Rockaway Park, by 8 o'clock they're going
- 44:08Speaker 1: to call this race. Now, look, I'm with you guys.
- 44:11Speaker 1: I will be destroyed. Not upset. Destroyed. I've run all
- 44:14Speaker 1: over the city with Bruce Blakeman. I went to the
- 44:18Speaker 1: Hamptons with Bruce Blakeman. I hate the Hamptons. There are
- 44:22Speaker 1: more douchebags in the Hamptons than maybe even Boca Raton.
- 44:25Speaker 1: I don't know. It's close. And he's on this show
- 44:29Speaker 1: every week, and I speak to Bruce every day. There
- 44:32Speaker 1: were days he came to me first, maybe second or third.
- 44:36Speaker 1: I don't know. But before anybody else knew he was
- 44:38Speaker 1: running for governor, I knew. So I've been invested in
- 44:41Speaker 1: this the whole time. Plus, I despise Kathy Hochul. And
- 44:45Speaker 1: I'm not nice about it. Look what I call her, wretched, hag, witch.
- 44:51Speaker 1: When I took a picture for the diner, John's Coffee Shop,
- 44:54Speaker 1: on 44th Street a couple of weekends ago, and I
- 44:57Speaker 1: ranked on her, you got to see the hate I
- 44:59Speaker 1: got for that. So I want him to win as
- 45:02Speaker 1: much as he does. I just don't know. I just
- 45:07Speaker 1: don't know. I don't trust New Yorkers. That's the bottom line.
- 45:12Speaker 15: I don't trust them.
- 45:13Speaker 1: So we're outnumbered, which is a big enough problem, and
- 45:16Speaker 1: then these people are morons. They're morons. Why would any
- 45:20Speaker 1: New Yorker vote for Letitia James? Or would this girl, Sarita?
- 45:24Speaker 1: Forget about Blakeman and Hochul for a second, okay? Because
- 45:27Speaker 1: you hate Donald Trump, that means you've got to hate
- 45:29Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman. I mean, what a crappy campaign by Kathy Hochul.
- 45:33Speaker 1: Every one of her commercials, all Bruce Blakeman cares about
- 45:37Speaker 1: is Donald Trump. That's not true. In fact, there are
- 45:42Speaker 1: a couple, which Bruce has pointed out, both political... and ideological,
- 45:48Speaker 1: and even personal policy differences between Blakeman and Trump. Let's
- 45:53Speaker 1: start with a big one. President Trump, he wasn't his
- 45:56Speaker 1: whole life, but now he's pro-life. Bruce Blakeman is pro-choice.
- 46:02Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman wants to protect immigrants who have been here
- 46:05Speaker 1: for up to a decade, gainfully employed, never got into trouble.
- 46:10Speaker 1: He's okay with them. So he's not President Trump. He's
- 46:14Speaker 1: his own guy. And all she does in all of
- 46:17Speaker 1: her ads is call him Trump. And she's going to win.
- 46:21Speaker 1: If she wins, I should say, if she wins, that's
- 46:24Speaker 1: her campaign. Calling Bruce Bateman President Trump every day. This
- 46:29Speaker 1: guy goes out there and says, wait a second. I'm
- 46:33Speaker 1: going to cut your energy costs. I'm going to make
- 46:36Speaker 1: sure that your streets are safe. She lies about a
- 46:40Speaker 1: bunch of things he says. You know, he votes with
- 46:42Speaker 1: Trump all the time. Not true. He called President Trump
- 46:46Speaker 1: the greatest president ever. So what? I think that, too.
- 46:49Speaker 1: He didn't even do that, though. He called Dwight Eisenhower
- 46:52Speaker 1: the greatest president ever. He wants to cut Medicaid in half.
- 46:55Speaker 1: He never said any of these things. They just lie.
- 46:59Speaker 1: Kate Conley lies about Mike Lawler all the time. They
- 47:03Speaker 1: just lie. And there are no repercussions.
- 47:06Speaker 24: None.
- 47:06Speaker 2: None.
- 47:07Speaker 1: She is a horrendous candidate and a terrible governor. Bruce
- 47:11Speaker 1: Blakeman is an impressive candidate, and he's been a tremendous
- 47:16Speaker 1: politician twice now as Nassau County executive. On the merits
- 47:22Speaker 1: of what they've done, there is no way you can
- 47:25Speaker 1: make a logical argument for Hochul over Blakeman. There's no way.
- 47:30Speaker 1: Other than, I'm a Democrat, I hate President Trump, and
- 47:34Speaker 1: Blakeman hangs out with white supremacists like Sid Rosenberg.
- 47:38Speaker 16: What?
- 47:39Speaker 1: Same thing with Sarita and Letitia James. What has Letitia
- 47:43Speaker 1: James done to make our city and our state safer?
- 47:47Speaker 1: Sarita's put terrorists away. She's put terrorists away. She hangs
- 47:52Speaker 1: out with the angel moms. Letitia James doesn't care. So
- 47:57Speaker 1: these races are not about who's the better candidate. They
- 48:02Speaker 1: haven't been for a long time, even before President Trump. Now,
- 48:07Speaker 1: it's exponentially worse for Republicans under Trump. Not his fault.
- 48:13Speaker 1: He's a great president because people are morons. But it's
- 48:16Speaker 1: never about the candidate or their policies or their capabilities
- 48:21Speaker 1: because the Democrats in almost every race are running retards.
- 48:28Speaker 1: Somebody should print that, don't you think, Norm?
- 48:30Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 48:30Speaker 1: What did I say exactly there? What was that, Norm?
- 48:35Speaker 15: You'll say it again. You'll say something similar in about
- 48:37Speaker 15: five minutes.
- 48:38Speaker 1: Give me something else, Norm. What else do you have?
- 48:40Speaker 22: I think, I mean, election-wise, I think you've covered it all.
- 48:43Speaker 4: So we just have to wait and see. Tomorrow's the
- 48:45Speaker 4: big day.
- 48:46Speaker 22: By the way, we have campaign coverage and poll coverage
- 48:49Speaker 22: starting at 5 o'clock tomorrow night, right up until all
- 48:52Speaker 22: the votes are counted. So you can tune in.
- 48:54Speaker 1: What time is that? What time do the polls close?
- 48:56Speaker 16: I don't even know.
- 48:56Speaker 4: I think it's 9 o'clock in New York.
- 48:57Speaker 1: Yeah, 9 o'clock.
- 48:58Speaker 22: So your friends said by 8 o'clock. Well, no, but
- 49:00Speaker 22: I think they mean 9 o'clock. Unless they know something.
- 49:05Speaker 1: I'm not sure about that. They're in the know. They're
- 49:09Speaker 1: in the know.
- 49:11Speaker 22: Otherwise, locally, just one really horrendous story from over the weekend.
- 49:15Speaker 22: This woman's jogging in Bath Beach, Brooklyn.
- 49:19Speaker 1: She got stabbed.
- 49:20Speaker 22: And she was stabbed in the neck as she was
- 49:23Speaker 22: running on this path. She was training for the marathon.
- 49:27Speaker 22: And she's really in bad shape. She's in critical condition.
- 49:31Speaker 22: And it was her father. I mean, she'd gone out running.
- 49:33Speaker 22: This was about Katie Swores is her name, by the way.
- 49:37Speaker 22: She went out running about 8 o'clock on Friday night.
- 49:40Speaker 22: In this area that unfortunately doesn't have a lot of light.
- 49:42Speaker 22: She was just doing, I guess, a final run before
- 49:43Speaker 22: the marathon. She didn't come home. And it was her
- 49:46Speaker 22: father who found her on the path. And they rushed
- 49:50Speaker 22: her to the hospital. And she's still in bad shape
- 49:53Speaker 22: this morning, critical condition.
- 49:54Speaker 4: And they've got nobody. I guess there's not really a
- 49:57Speaker 4: lot of cameras in the area.
- 49:57Speaker 22: And so they're just asking anybody that if you saw
- 50:00Speaker 22: anything near, this is right near Bay Parkway and Cropsey Avenue,
- 50:03Speaker 22: if you saw anything. That remotely looks strange to you
- 50:07Speaker 22: to report it to police so they can try and
- 50:09Speaker 22: figure out who did this.
- 50:10Speaker 1: Don't worry. New York is very, very safe these days, right?
- 50:12Speaker 1: That's what they keep telling us. Very, very safe. You
- 50:14Speaker 1: go for a jog, you get stabbed.
- 50:16Speaker 22: Well, by the way, notice that all these attacks we've
- 50:18Speaker 22: talked about in the last couple of weeks, it's all
- 50:20Speaker 22: against women.
- 50:21Speaker 4: Almost all of them.
- 50:22Speaker 1: Women are hunted. They are the hunted in this city.
- 50:25Speaker 4: I mean, at Central Park last week.
- 50:27Speaker 1: That's terrible. Five girls have been raped in Central Park.
- 50:30Speaker 4: They haven't found that person yet, by the way.
- 50:32Speaker 1: A couple of stabbings. And we're still, still, they don't
- 50:36Speaker 1: talk about it in the media. Girls still get punched
- 50:38Speaker 1: across the face walking in Manhattan.
- 50:40Speaker 16: Still.
- 50:41Speaker 1: That's why I'm nervous every time my daughter Ava comes in.
- 50:45Speaker 1: She came to work with me, Lou, and Jean this morning.
- 50:48Speaker 1: Thank God she's on the train back to Pennsylvania. But
- 50:52Speaker 1: I'm scared to death when Ava's in the city. Even Danielle,
- 50:55Speaker 1: every day, going to work in Midtown. This is a
- 50:58Speaker 1: scary place. I love you, Jessica Tisch. I think you're amazing.
- 51:02Speaker 1: You are doing the best job you can, working for
- 51:06Speaker 1: just a jerk-off who doesn't want police, who would love
- 51:09Speaker 1: to cut police. You're doing the best job you can.
- 51:12Speaker 1: But anybody who says New York is safe is lying.
- 51:16Speaker 1: Take it from me. Now, that's a sad story. Here's
- 51:19Speaker 1: another one. but not equally as sad because that girl
- 51:22Speaker 1: is only 28. This gentleman was 83. But I was
- 51:27Speaker 1: before this year, because now I love Randy Levine and
- 51:30Speaker 1: the Yankees, but I spent most of my life, 50-plus years,
- 51:34Speaker 1: as a New York Met fan. And this guy provided
- 51:38Speaker 1: met bands. I was too young. I was born in 67.
- 51:41Speaker 1: This guy was a big deal on the team that
- 51:42Speaker 1: won the World Series in 69. He's an all-time favorite
- 51:47Speaker 1: met the great Jerry Kuzmin. He died over the weekend.
- 51:51Speaker 1: The Kuz was 83 years old. So rest in peace
- 51:56Speaker 1: to one of the most popular New York Mets ever,
- 51:59Speaker 1: a 1969 World Series hero, Jerry Kuzmin. Kuzman.
- 52:05Speaker 10: Yeah, I waited a long time for this day.
- 52:07Speaker 1: It sure is a nice day today. Starting pitcher, Jerry Kuzman. Well,
- 52:12Speaker 1: there it is, Big Shea.
- 52:14Speaker 25: In early 1967, a 24-year-old by the name of Jerome
- 52:18Speaker 25: Martin Kuzman made his major league debut with the New
- 52:21Speaker 25: York Mets.
- 52:22Speaker 13: Five years prior, Kuzman was drafted in the U.S. Army
- 52:25Speaker 13: and was considering becoming a helicopter pilot. But those plans
- 52:29Speaker 13: quickly changed.
- 52:31Speaker 25: While playing baseball in Texas at Fort Bliss, he caught
- 52:34Speaker 25: the attention of one of his teammates, whose father was
- 52:37Speaker 25: an usher at Shea Stadium. The usher made a call
- 52:40Speaker 25: to Joe McDonald, the Mets farm director at the time.
- 52:44Speaker 25: A scout was sent to watch Kuzmin pitch, and an
- 52:46Speaker 25: offer was made, the catalyst for one of the greatest
- 52:49Speaker 25: Mets careers ever.
- 52:51Speaker 1: I wasn't afraid of success. I was afraid of failing.
- 52:55Speaker 1: So every pitch I threw was I did not want
- 52:58Speaker 1: to fail.
- 52:58Speaker 25: Kuzmin's breakout season came in 1968, his first full season
- 53:03Speaker 25: in the majors.
- 53:04Speaker 13: The left-hander finished the year with.
- 53:06Speaker 25: 19 wins, 17 complete games, and an ERA just above two.
- 53:12Speaker 25: Alongside Tom Seaver, who came up with Kuzmin the previous season,
- 53:16Speaker 25: the Mets suddenly had one of baseball's most dominating one-two
- 53:19Speaker 25: punches on the mound. The following season, Kuzmin dominated yet again,
- 53:25Speaker 25: finishing the season with 17 victories and leading the team
- 53:29Speaker 25: to a National League title.
- 53:31Speaker 13: After beating the Braves to make it to the World Series.
- 53:33Speaker 25: The Miracle Mets shocked the world by beating the heavily
- 53:37Speaker 25: favored Baltimore Orioles in five games, bringing the organization its
- 53:41Speaker 25: first World Series title ever.
- 53:43Speaker 10: When you had Seaver and Kuzmin, and Kuzmin in that
- 53:47Speaker 10: number two slot in our starting rotation, he was a warrior.
- 53:51Speaker 1: Either one of those guys that are missing, and we
- 53:54Speaker 1: don't win it.
- 53:55Speaker 25: The left-hander would spend the next eight years putting up
- 53:58Speaker 25: impressive numbers for the Amazons, posting double-digit wins in six
- 54:02Speaker 25: of those seasons. Following the 1977 season, Kuzmin became frustrated
- 54:07Speaker 25: with the Mets' management and asked to be traded. The
- 54:10Speaker 25: Mets fulfilled that request, sending him to the Minnesota Twins,
- 54:14Speaker 25: marking the end of one of the greatest Mets careers
- 54:16Speaker 25: for a pitcher of all time. Kuzmin retired in 1985,
- 54:21Speaker 25: finishing his career with 222 wins, 140.
- 54:26Speaker 13: Of those coming as a member of the New York Mets.
- 54:29Speaker 25: He currently sits second on the all-time list of games started,
- 54:33Speaker 25: complete games, as well as shutouts, trailing only his longtime friend,
- 54:37Speaker 25: Tom Sievert.
- 54:39Speaker 13: During the 2021 season, the.
- 54:41Speaker 25: Mets organization retired Kuzmin's number 36, a fitting tribute to
- 54:45Speaker 25: one of the most important players to ever wear a
- 54:49Speaker 25: Mets uniform.
- 54:50Speaker 2: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
- 54:54Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
- 54:56Speaker 1: Mom Donnie just going with the lone mustache. No more
- 55:00Speaker 1: terrorist beard for Mom Donnie. So, um.
- 55:04Speaker 8: Maybe that's intentional, though.
- 55:05Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't care. Right. No, me neither.
- 55:08Speaker 1: He was out there yesterday handing out water to the
- 55:10Speaker 1: people running the marathon. They were so happy to see him.
- 55:12Speaker 1: That's why New Yorkers are retards, man. I don't know
- 55:16Speaker 1: what else to say. They were happy to see him.
- 55:20Speaker 1: One fat girl in particular, just on television. Stupid fat girl. Congratulations,
- 55:25Speaker 1: you completed the marathon.
- 55:26Speaker 11: You're still fat.
- 55:28Speaker 1: She was, like, so happy to see the mayor. I
- 55:31Speaker 1: wish I would have seen him. That would have been...
- 55:33Speaker 1: Less smiles and less handshakes. But they were watching the
- 55:36Speaker 1: Bills game. A couple of quick observations about the NFL yesterday.
- 55:40Speaker 1: Then we'll get to Scott Singer. There are no more
- 55:43Speaker 1: unbeaten teams. I think Kyler Murray stinks. I do. He
- 55:47Speaker 1: had the lead late for Minnesota on the road in Detroit.
- 55:49Speaker 1: He had one good series with Addison. But the Lions
- 55:52Speaker 1: came back. Gibbs is a great running back. They beat
- 55:54Speaker 1: the Vikings 19-15. So there are no more undefeated teams.
- 55:59Speaker 1: The Broncos scored 15 unanswered to come back and beat
- 56:04Speaker 1: the Chiefs, who have now lost, I think, a couple
- 56:06Speaker 1: in a row. The Buccaneers won yesterday. They're second straight.
- 56:10Speaker 1: They beat the Falcons 16-0 on a very rainy day
- 56:14Speaker 1: in Tampa, Florida. But did you guys know this? They
- 56:18Speaker 1: did not complete one pass. Crazy. Baker Mayfield had zero
- 56:22Speaker 1: passing yards. Zero.
- 56:24Speaker 8: Didn't they have both? Both of the running backs had
- 56:26Speaker 8: over 100 yards.
- 56:26Speaker 1: Both of them did, yeah. Everybody ran like wild. Bucky
- 56:29Speaker 1: Irving had a big day. Aaron Rodgers won again. The
- 56:32Speaker 1: Steelers were 6-2. The Bengals won as well in overtime.
- 56:36Speaker 1: and Dallas. Scott Arbus, I told you, your organization stinks,
- 56:41Speaker 1: your team stinks, your defense stinks. They're up two touchdowns.
- 56:45Speaker 1: The Cardinals bench their quarterback, Jacoby Brissett, in favor of
- 56:49Speaker 1: Garner Minshew, and he comes in the game like Johnny Unitas.
- 56:53Speaker 15: That guy looked good.
- 56:55Speaker 1: He's always been good. Jacksonville, Billy, he's a good backup quarterback.
- 56:58Speaker 1: But if you're Dallas, you can't lose. They lost that
- 57:01Speaker 1: game at home. I mean, as it is, the Giants
- 57:05Speaker 1: at 4-2-1 are winning that division easily. And the Giants gained.
- 57:10Speaker 1: Dallas loses that game at home. They were up by
- 57:13Speaker 1: two touchdowns in overtime to Arizona. And the Eagles lost
- 57:17Speaker 1: as well to Washington last night. So during the bye week,
- 57:21Speaker 1: the Giants actually had a great week. Unbelievable, Dallas. What
- 57:25Speaker 1: a joke. We'll take a break.
- 57:27Speaker 15: It was great to see Jerry Jones.
- 57:28Speaker 1: Oh, Jerry Jones wanted to kill himself. It was great.
- 57:30Speaker 15: They followed him all the way.
- 57:31Speaker 1: He sold his soul to the devil. They got Aikman.
- 57:35Speaker 1: They got Michael Irvin. They got Emmitt Smith. They got
- 57:38Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson. They even won a Super Bowl with Barry Switzer.
- 57:42Speaker 1: So he's got his three Super Bowls. That's a very,
- 57:45Speaker 1: very big deal. But clearly, he made a deal with
- 57:49Speaker 1: Satan back then to do that because they haven't won
- 57:51Speaker 1: anything since. For decades. Anything. Doesn't matter who it's been.
- 57:55Speaker 1: Tony Romo, Dak Prescott, they win nothing. They're a joke.
- 58:01Speaker 1: They're one big joke. Scott Singer was the mayor of
- 58:06Speaker 1: Boca Raton. He's got a huge Congress race against a Democrat,
- 58:10Speaker 1: Jared Moskowitz, down in Florida. And Scott just told me
- 58:14Speaker 1: about a week ago that he's winning. We'll find out
- 58:17Speaker 1: if he's still winning the day before Election Day.

- 58:45Speaker 26: from Nel Travita, Kansas City to face the Chiefs next Sunday.
- 58:47Speaker 26: Giants did enjoy their bye week. You heard Sid talk
- 58:51Speaker 26: all about it and actually made some more room. in
- 58:55Speaker 26: that first place slot in the NFC East with the
- 58:57Speaker 26: Cowboys and the Eagles both suffering losses. On the ice
- 59:00Speaker 26: at the Garden, Rangers lost 4-1 to the Edmonton Oilers.
- 59:03Speaker 26: Dylan Garand allowed three goals on 24 shots in his
- 59:06Speaker 26: ninth consecutive appearance. And up next for the Rangers, they'll
- 59:09Speaker 26: host the St. Louis Blues tomorrow night out in Indiana.
- 59:12Speaker 1: Did you see Connor McDavid for the Oilers? Yeah, I
- 59:14Speaker 1: did see that. He's on pace to score like 300 points.
- 59:17Speaker 1: He's unbelievable, that guy. Unbelievable.
- 59:19Speaker 26: It's weird to say that he's having another breakout season,
- 59:22Speaker 26: but he's having another breakout season.
- 59:24Speaker 1: He's having a Gretzky year. Yeah, it's unbelievable. A Mario
- 59:26Speaker 1: Lemieux year.
- 59:27Speaker 15: There's that top line on Edmonton.
- 59:29Speaker 1: That's the best line in hockey.
- 59:30Speaker 15: With Evan Bouchard. And I forgot the other guy's name.
- 59:34Speaker 1: Yeah, he scores goals that will the other guy. Dreisaitl? Yeah, Dreisaitl.
- 59:39Speaker 15: They have more goals than the entire Columbus Blue Jackets.
- 59:43Speaker 1: I know. Those three players. Those three players. I don't
- 59:46Speaker 1: know how that team doesn't win the Cup every year.
- 59:48Speaker 1: They just beat Minnesota a couple nights ago. That was
- 59:50Speaker 1: a big win.
- 59:50Speaker 15: It takes a couple of times.
- 59:52Speaker 1: Well, I know. But that line is bossy, trotty. Yeah,
- 59:57Speaker 1: that's kind of. You know, a lot of times on
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: that line, too, they also used– What was his name?
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: It was Bossy, Trottier, and Tonelli. Yeah. John Tonelli skated
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: with those guys, too.
- 1:00:08Speaker 15: Well, they got to a point where they just couldn't
- 1:00:09Speaker 15: move guys around.
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: Anders Caller skated on that line, too.
- 1:00:13Speaker 15: Gary Howard.
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: Gary Howard, yeah.
- 1:00:15Speaker 11: Okay.
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: All right. Anybody alive that knows what we're talking about?
- 1:00:22Speaker 16: Cool.
- 1:00:23Speaker 8: I'll take your guys' word for it.
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: That's nice. That's crazy.
- 1:00:25Speaker 8: That's all you need to know.
- 1:00:28Speaker 26: Out in Indiana, Michael Porter Jr. scored 23 points. Randall
- 1:00:31Speaker 26: had 20 points and led the Nets to a 98-90
- 1:00:33Speaker 26: victory over the Pacers. Up next for them, the welcome
- 1:00:36Speaker 26: of the Knicks tonight. First matchup between the two crosstown rivals.
- 1:00:39Speaker 26: A season tip-off there scheduled for 7.30 p.m. That's their
- 1:00:41Speaker 26: first one of the year for the Nets. Yeah, first
- 1:00:43Speaker 26: one of the year.
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: How about it? But Tyler Halliburton didn't play last night
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: for Indiana. Tyrese. Tyrese, excuse me.
- 1:00:47Speaker 8: No, but he did not play.
- 1:00:49Speaker 18: No.
- 1:00:49Speaker 8: So, yeah, cut him a little slack there. But, yeah,
- 1:00:52Speaker 8: Nets and Knicks tonight, first time this season.
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: That should be interesting. I'm going.
- 1:00:55Speaker 18: Oh.
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: No, you're not.

- 1:01:08Speaker 2: Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: For 16 years, terrific mayor, but now he's running for Congress.
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: against a very popular Jewish Democrat, Jared Moskowitz, down in Florida.
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: And he told me last week he was winning. And,
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: of course, much like President Trump, I'm going to take
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: credit for that because he was on our show, even
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: though we're in a completely different state. We've got a
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: lot of Floridians that listen to the show every day.
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: Scott Singer doing a great job down in South Florida.
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: Scott Singer, how are you, pal? Doing great.
- 1:01:45Speaker 24: You do deserve credit because we are winning, and with
- 1:01:48Speaker 24: your help today, we're going to win tomorrow.
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: I think you are, too. But before we get to
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: your race, I've been watching this video all morning long
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: of this airplane that took off in Austin, Texas, was
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: on its way to the Bahamas, and crashed. Like, I've
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: never seen a more violent plane crash on video, honestly,
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: in my whole life. And the fireball... Now, it went down,
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: I believe, in West Palm, not far from Mar-a-Lago, still
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: not far from you guys in Boca Raton. All nine
- 1:02:20Speaker 1: people on board obviously died. It was a horrendous looking crash.
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: Did you see that? What's going on down there this morning?
- 1:02:28Speaker 24: I did see that. It's always a tragedy. My sister
- 1:02:31Speaker 24: is a retired airline pilot, so all of those things
- 1:02:34Speaker 24: hit a little harder. But it's not in our district.
- 1:02:37Speaker 24: I'm super focused on getting the vote out tomorrow because
- 1:02:40Speaker 24: this is a district Trump won by nine points. When
- 1:02:43Speaker 24: Republicans show up tomorrow and we need them to get out,
- 1:02:45Speaker 24: rain or shine, we will win. We need to stop
- 1:02:48Speaker 24: the crazy and get common sense and some rationality back
- 1:02:51Speaker 24: in D.C., Well, that's true.
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: What district is that exactly you're in, Scott?
- 1:02:57Speaker 24: So this is District 25. It's Delray Beach down the
- 1:03:00Speaker 24: coast to Miami Beach, Delray Beach, Boca Raton, Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura,
- 1:03:04Speaker 24: Miami Beach. A lot of your listeners have homes here.
- 1:03:08Speaker 24: I heard the ad beforehand that Mike Lawler had. My
- 1:03:11Speaker 24: opponent doesn't live in the district, doesn't pay property taxes here,
- 1:03:15Speaker 24: yet he voted for the biggest tax hike in American history.
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: Yeah, one of your people, one of my best friends...
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: the great Siggy Flicker. She's going to be here this weekend.
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: Her son is getting married on Saturday, and Danielle and
- 1:03:29Speaker 1: I are going to the wedding, Siggy and Michael, big
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: wedding coming up out on Long Island on Saturday. So
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: she's a Boca Raton resident, and she loves you. She
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: voted for you in the past for mayor. So what happened?
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: What is going on where a guy like you who's
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: running for Congress for the first time. Moskowitz is pretty popular,
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: and he's Jewish, so you would think he would do
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: great with a Jewish vote. Why do you think you're
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: winning as of this morning?
- 1:03:56Speaker 24: Well, a lot of reasons. First, we understand that the
- 1:03:58Speaker 24: Democrat Party has become anti-Israel at its core, and Jared
- 1:04:02Speaker 24: has been powerless to stop it. He not only doesn't
- 1:04:04Speaker 24: stand up to the squad, he enables them. He was
- 1:04:07Speaker 24: the deciding vote to put Ilhan Omar on the Workforce
- 1:04:11Speaker 24: and Education Committee. He was the deciding vote to stop
- 1:04:13Speaker 24: Ilhan Omar from a censure. If he voted his conscience,
- 1:04:17Speaker 24: she wouldn't be in those roles and she would have
- 1:04:18Speaker 24: been censured. Siggy's been sharing a graphic and look at
- 1:04:22Speaker 24: her social media. The comparison is clear. He protected Ilhan Omar.
- 1:04:26Speaker 24: He voted against U.S.-Israeli cooperation on military and intelligence matters.
- 1:04:30Speaker 24: He even refused to ban Sharia law when he was
- 1:04:33Speaker 24: in the statehouse. And Jewish voters of all parties understand
- 1:04:37Speaker 24: that we can't have someone who will not stand strongly
- 1:04:39Speaker 24: with our ally Israel and will not stand up consistently
- 1:04:42Speaker 24: in anti-Semitism. And it's similar to what you've seen Haley
- 1:04:45Speaker 24: Stevens do in Michigan. Jared, unfortunately, has not shown that
- 1:04:48Speaker 24: courage or that consistency. They want someone like me who will.
- 1:04:52Speaker 1: I also heard from Siggy and a bunch of others,
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: and I saw this on the news too, about this
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: Islamic compound being built in Delray Beach. First of all,
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: is that true? And if it is, please tell me
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: that you're against it and Moskowitz is for it.
- 1:05:10Speaker 24: So we were surprised four years ago to learn that
- 1:05:13Speaker 24: in West Delray that the county commission had approved an
- 1:05:16Speaker 24: Islamic center and in the agricultural reserve, there were meetings
- 1:05:19Speaker 24: being held about that ag reserve. They were closed door.
- 1:05:22Speaker 24: I insisted, I told the county commissioner, you need to
- 1:05:25Speaker 24: have a public meeting. There was a forum last month
- 1:05:27Speaker 24: that you probably saw on the news. I caused that
- 1:05:29Speaker 24: to happen. Moskowitz was absent. People are concerned about what's
- 1:05:32Speaker 24: going on in the ag reserve and we're not done
- 1:05:34Speaker 24: with that issue.
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: All right, so that's still a big issue down there. Hey,
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: give me, we'll get back to your race in a second,
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: but I did see Francis Suarez on Fox News this morning,
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: the very handsome, and you're handsome too, Scott, don't worry, okay?
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: But he was on this morning, and he said that
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: Republicans may struggle a little bit, even at the very
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: top of the ticket. If you're giving Byron Donalds the win,
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: he probably will, but slow down, because at least Suarez
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: thinks David Jolly is going to make it a very
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: tight race. What do you think?
- 1:06:07Speaker 24: I respectfully but strongly disagree with him. Republicans just need
- 1:06:11Speaker 24: to get out and vote. And this is just more
- 1:06:13Speaker 24: gloom and doom. You know, and he, you know, frankly,
- 1:06:16Speaker 24: Francis wasn't. Francis endorsed Hillary on the eve of her election, too.
- 1:06:19Speaker 24: So he hasn't always called it right. OK, he actually
- 1:06:22Speaker 24: endorsed her. Republicans just need to come out. Trump won
- 1:06:26Speaker 24: this district by nine. There's a five-point Republican registration advantage.
- 1:06:29Speaker 24: And if we want to stop what the left is
- 1:06:32Speaker 24: going to do to open up the border, to raise taxes,
- 1:06:36Speaker 24: to make the next two years hell for President Trump
- 1:06:38Speaker 24: and anyone in the administration, we need to flip this district.
- 1:06:41Speaker 24: That's why the Speaker's been down. That's why we've gotten
- 1:06:43Speaker 24: so much grassroots support. And that's why even former Democrats,
- 1:06:47Speaker 24: like a Democrat former member, Peter Deutsch, has endorsed me.
- 1:06:50Speaker 24: He understands how bad that party is for Israel.
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: Yeah, I know Peter Deutsch is. And you keep mentioning
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: President Trump, and I met you, but folks that don't
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: know this, night three of Hanukkah last year. We're both
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: in the East Wing for President Trump's big Hanukkah party.
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: You're literally standing right next to me when President Trump
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: invited me up on stage, which was just a huge,
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: huge honor. So we met that night at the White House,
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: and as far as I know, President Trump has endorsed you.
- 1:07:22Speaker 16: Oh, absolutely.
- 1:07:23Speaker 24: Even in kind words for me on Saturday and to me,
- 1:07:26Speaker 24: he had a telephone town hall and he started off
- 1:07:28Speaker 24: by saying, Scott, you know, Jared's running ads saying that
- 1:07:31Speaker 24: you're going to raise prescription drug prices. I'm the one
- 1:07:33Speaker 24: that lowered and hit him on it. So we got
- 1:07:35Speaker 24: to remind people they're just continue to gaslight with all
- 1:07:38Speaker 24: of these things. You think the Democrats are going to
- 1:07:40Speaker 24: lower gas prices? They want to stop gas drilling entirely. Moskowitz, again,
- 1:07:44Speaker 24: votes lockstep with the squad 88 percent of the time.
- 1:07:47Speaker 24: He's voted against photo ID. He's voted to raise taxes.
- 1:07:51Speaker 24: He even skipped a vote to convince socialism. And this
- 1:07:53Speaker 24: district's got a lot of people who fled communism. He
- 1:07:56Speaker 24: doesn't have the courage to stand up.
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: I will.
- 1:07:58Speaker 24: I will fight for this district. I actually live in
- 1:08:00Speaker 24: this district and we need people to come on out.
- 1:08:03Speaker 24: Tomorrow's not a dress rehearsal. It decides that we need
- 1:08:06Speaker 24: people to show up 7 a.m.
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: To 7 p.m. You know, it's interesting, Scott, in that
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: Jewish people see a Jewish name and they go, he's
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: with us. And Moskowitz has a pretty good reputation, you know.
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: Even a guy that's not Jewish here in New York,
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: I kill him all the time, Richie Torres. He sucks.
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: You know, he's pro-Israel, but he hates Bibi. Well, what
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: good are you? He hates President Trump. He has said
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: the nastiest things about President Trump. And then you get
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: the Jews like Moskowitz, like you're saying, look, he can't
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: stop the squad. Can't stop them, right? He can't stop Mamdani.
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: But wouldn't it be nice if a guy like Moskowitz
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: came out and said, I condemn the members of the squad.
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: I will never vote with Ilhan Omar. That's all he's
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: got to do. That's all he's got to do. He
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: doesn't even do that, does he?
- 1:08:53Speaker 24: Not only that, he's failed time and time again. He's
- 1:08:55Speaker 24: voted for Ilhan Omar three times. He wouldn't condemn him.
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: Her.
- 1:09:00Speaker 24: Excuse me. He makes condemnation comments to reporters, but he
- 1:09:04Speaker 24: voted to keep her twice on committees and once literally
- 1:09:07Speaker 24: to prevent her censure. And that got under his skin.
- 1:09:09Speaker 24: I pointed it out in one of the forums we had.
- 1:09:11Speaker 24: He refused to appear in a televised debate. He didn't
- 1:09:14Speaker 24: want to stand up for his record.
- 1:09:15Speaker 19: And also, you know why?
- 1:09:16Speaker 24: He's traded stocks hundreds of times, $ 4. 5 billion worth. A
- 1:09:21Speaker 24: moderator asked him, would you voluntarily stop trading?
- 1:09:24Speaker 19: He said, no, I'll comply with the law, and I
- 1:09:26Speaker 19: don't have to, except that.
- 1:09:27Speaker 24: He's violated the law repeatedly.
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:09:29Speaker 24: It's the Washington double talk. Yes, he repeatedly violated the
- 1:09:32Speaker 24: Stock Act. I will not trade stocks in Congress. I
- 1:09:34Speaker 24: will ban stock trading, but I will trade regardless if
- 1:09:37Speaker 24: there's a ban or not. People need to know that
- 1:09:39Speaker 24: we're in it for public service, not self-service.
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: 100%. So you guys never had one debate?
- 1:09:44Speaker 19: We had two forums.
- 1:09:46Speaker 24: They weren't styled as a debate, but he wouldn't allow
- 1:09:48Speaker 24: TV cameras there, even though a TV reporter was conducting
- 1:09:51Speaker 24: one of them. We had to put clips out on YouTube,
- 1:09:53Speaker 24: which you can see on my social media at Scott
- 1:09:55Speaker 24: Singer USA. That's the best he would give us. He's
- 1:09:57Speaker 24: a member of Congress and he's afraid to go on
- 1:10:00Speaker 24: TV against the nominee of another party.
- 1:10:02Speaker 16: What kind of courage is that?
- 1:10:03Speaker 24: No wonder why he can't stand up to Ilhan Omar.
- 1:10:05Speaker 24: He won't even face.
- 1:10:06Speaker 19: His own voters. And again, doesn't even live in the district.
- 1:10:09Speaker 16: So they're not his neighbors. Wow.
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: Good for you, Scott. You sound great. Last one. I
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: know a big issue down there. We discussed this last
- 1:10:15Speaker 1: time is insurance. Right. You get these hurricanes, you get
- 1:10:19Speaker 1: these tropical storms, you get floods. And Ron DeSantis, when
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: it's all said and done, he was a great governor.
- 1:10:27Speaker 1: Great governor. I think Trump is warming up to him
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: just a little bit. But but people will talk about
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: Ron failed when it came to the insurance game down
- 1:10:36Speaker 1: in South Florida. That's what they'll say. I think Byron
- 1:10:38Speaker 1: Donald even says that. Is that a huge issue for
- 1:10:43Speaker 1: you and your campaign or not, Willie?
- 1:10:45Speaker 19: Insurance is an issue. Here's two things I do in Congress.
- 1:10:48Speaker 24: One, we need Congress to take more commerce powers, which
- 1:10:51Speaker 24: they delegated to the states for the last 80 years,
- 1:10:53Speaker 24: and increase competition. Second, the way we have tax deductibility
- 1:10:57Speaker 24: for state and local taxes, we can consider that for insurance, too.
- 1:11:00Speaker 24: I want to have lower taxes, not higher taxes. My
- 1:11:02Speaker 24: opponent voted to raise them. That's not how you increase affordability.
- 1:11:07Speaker 24: That's how you take money out of people's pockets.
- 1:11:09Speaker 11: I will cut taxes.
- 1:11:10Speaker 24: I will continue to support these tax cuts from President
- 1:11:13Speaker 24: Trump that have unleashed the economy. That's how we improve
- 1:11:15Speaker 24: our economy.
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: Personal question for you, Scott. How do you feel about
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: all these disenchanted Americans leaving places like New York, New Jersey,
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: all these blue sanctuary states? They're leaving and they're going
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: to a lot of states, Tennessee, South Carolina, but no
- 1:11:36Speaker 1: state more than yours. How do you feel about that?
- 1:11:40Speaker 16: Well, great.
- 1:11:40Speaker 24: As mayor of Boca Raton, we actually recruited refugees who
- 1:11:44Speaker 24: wanted to bring businesses from New York, Illinois, California, and
- 1:11:47Speaker 24: we succeeded. I was the first mayor in the country
- 1:11:50Speaker 24: right after Mondani's primary win to go on an offensive.
- 1:11:53Speaker 24: We put a billboard up in Times Square trying to
- 1:11:55Speaker 24: attract business leaders. The New York Post even covered it.
- 1:11:58Speaker 24: They put us on the cover.
- 1:11:59Speaker 19: This is before other.
- 1:12:00Speaker 16: People were copying us.
- 1:12:01Speaker 24: And we got Hundreds more high paying jobs.
- 1:12:03Speaker 19: We had thousands of high paying jobs.
- 1:12:05Speaker 24: And fortunately, people voted conservatively. They understand they were leading
- 1:12:09Speaker 24: high crime, high tax jurisdictions and coming to Boca Raton.
- 1:12:12Speaker 24: I need people in this district who don't want to
- 1:12:15Speaker 24: New York up our Florida and don't want to New
- 1:12:17Speaker 24: York up our United States to come out tomorrow and vote.
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: What's your favorite Italian restaurant in Boca Raton? Oh, boy.
- 1:12:23Speaker 24: Trotteria Romano, probably.
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: I know you're going to say that. I know it.
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: It's good. I'm going to tell you this guy. I
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: love Peter Kramer. What can I tell you?
- 1:12:30Speaker 16: I love Peter, too.
- 1:12:30Speaker 24: And I'm sorry, Peter.
- 1:12:31Speaker 16: I love you, too.
- 1:12:33Speaker 11: I'll call that 1A.
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: He's a great Jewish supporter of yours, I'm sure, as well.
- 1:12:38Speaker 1: And then my steakhouse, I still, for some reason, I'm
- 1:12:41Speaker 1: still loyal to Johnny Gio and all those guys over
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: at New York Prime because New York is in the title.
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: But I will say this on a serious note. My
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: family and I, we lived in Boca Raton twice. For
- 1:12:52Speaker 1: 16 years, it's a beautiful place. You got the great restaurants.
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: It's clean. The crime is very, very low. So it
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: is one of the more desired places to live, I think,
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: anywhere in the country.
- 1:13:07Speaker 24: Well, it is, but that's how we get that way.
- 1:13:09Speaker 24: You govern with common sense. Lower taxes, lower crime by
- 1:13:13Speaker 24: backing the blue and creating high-paying jobs. That's what I
- 1:13:17Speaker 24: want to do for America. We need to secure the border.
- 1:13:19Speaker 24: President Trump did that. We need to make sure it
- 1:13:21Speaker 24: stays sealed. You want to lower taxes further, you improve
- 1:13:24Speaker 24: the economy. We've got to get common sense, not nonsense.
- 1:13:27Speaker 24: And when you see what the left is embracing... Even El-Saeed,
- 1:13:30Speaker 24: who's disgusting on so many levels, but even last night
- 1:13:32Speaker 24: on 60 Minutes saying it's perfectly fine for men to
- 1:13:35Speaker 24: be in girls' locker rooms because they'll be exposed to stuff.
- 1:13:39Speaker 24: This is what we're dealing with here. Moskowitz hasn't come
- 1:13:42Speaker 24: out and said, you know, El-Saeed's ads were the one,
- 1:13:45Speaker 24: you know, blaming Israel for all the problems of the world.
- 1:13:48Speaker 24: Hasn't come out and said anything. Another failure of him
- 1:13:51Speaker 24: to stand up.
- 1:13:52Speaker 19: I will stand up.
- 1:13:53Speaker 24: I will fight. And that's what we need tomorrow.
- 1:13:55Speaker 19: So please come out and vote.
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: One more time for people that want to help you,
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: your website address, what's all that good stuff?
- 1:14:01Speaker 24: Website is scottsingerusa.com. We are still looking for volunteers to
- 1:14:05Speaker 24: even work for an hour at the polls or call
- 1:14:07Speaker 24: 10 friends. And you don't have to go to the website.
- 1:14:10Speaker 24: Just if you're in this district or got relatives there,
- 1:14:12Speaker 24: Delray Beach to Miami Beach and all points in between.
- 1:14:15Speaker 24: Ask five friends to get out and vote.
- 1:14:17Speaker 16: Voting, we will win.
- 1:14:18Speaker 24: We just need to get the turnout. And that's it.
- 1:14:20Speaker 19: We've got five point registration advantage. Don't gloom and doom.
- 1:14:23Speaker 24: Get out and vote like our nation depends on it.
- 1:14:25Speaker 16: It does.
- 1:14:26Speaker 1: Scott Singer, you're very, very impressive. Terrific guy. I'm very
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: happy for you. I think you do win tomorrow, but
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: best of luck regardless. We'll talk after you win. Thank
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: you so much. Thanks, Sid. God bless you. Scott Singer
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: right there, former mayor of Boca Raton, running for Congress
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: against the incumbent Jared Moskowitz. Sounds to me like Moskowitz
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: is in big trouble. We got the news coming up
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: and a lot of great guests still to come. Michael Rappaport.
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:14:56Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
- 1:14:58Speaker 1: But the beauty about this show is we actually do
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: a lot of sports. We do care about the Super Bowl,
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: the football Super Bowl. We cover the NFL every Monday.
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: I think in fine fashion. We don't get caught up
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: in the minutiae of the nonsense like WFAN does. Every
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: Geno Smith incomplete pass, every Aaron Glenn decision. We don't
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: do that. But you know what's going on. You listen
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: to me and us every Monday morning. You know what's
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: going on. And I am still efforting to get this
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: show to Los Angeles for the Super Bowl this year. Because,
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: as I say all the time, if you want a
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: successful morning show in New York, you do sports and
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: you cover the big events. And for people that argue
- 1:15:45Speaker 1: with me, show me your ratings. Show me yours. Okay?
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: And the truth is, they argue, and I kill them.
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: I kill them. So, we care about the real Super Bowl, too.
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: But this is Super Bowl the last couple of weeks
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: leading up to tomorrow. But talking to Norm early this morning,
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: it gets tiring. You know? You're out there every day
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: fighting for certain candidates. We do because we're biased. Some
- 1:16:16Speaker 1: shows across America, they... Try to be down the middle.
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: In fact, there's very few that do that these days,
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: let's be honest. 99% are totally lefty. 1%, well, half
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: a percent are to the right. Even Fox News. Sometimes
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: I don't know who they're voting for. I have no idea.
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: Harold Ford Jr., Abdul El-Sayed. All these folks are now
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: on Fox News. And their ratings have gone down dramatically.
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: Gone down dramatically. So I don't even know. But we,
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: you know, we're biased on this show. I don't care.
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: I love President Trump. I love Bruce Blakeman. I love Republicans.
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: This common sense notion, vote for the common sense Democrat,
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: sounds nice. That would be great. But it doesn't exist.
- 1:17:05Speaker 1: Because there are very few Democrats, you can count them
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: on less than two hands, on one hand that are
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: common sense. So why bother even saying it? Don't even
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: bother saying it. Just tell the truth. You got to
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: vote Republican. The bottom line is you got to vote Republican.
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: Not every Republican is perfect. Some Republicans are a little wacky,
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: but they're not dangerous. They're not going to destroy our cities,
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: our states, and our country like the Democrats. But either way, Noam,
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: after a while, election fatigue, I can't even imagine what
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: it's like for the actual candidates. Bruce Blakeman traveling the state.
- 1:17:48Speaker 1: Sometimes he's in New York City and a place like
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: Syracuse on the same day. They got to be exhausted.
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: Trump just did 30 rallies. No other president would ever
- 1:18:01Speaker 1: do that. No, the Democrat president certainly would ever do
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: what Trump just did. They got to be physically exhausted.
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: But I'm talking about even from where we're sitting, the
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: election mental fatigue sets in. Yes or no? Oh, it
- 1:18:16Speaker 1: has to.
- 1:18:17Speaker 22: And at some point, I would imagine when you're on
- 1:18:19Speaker 22: the campaign trail like Bruce Blakeman and Governor O'Connor, you
- 1:18:22Speaker 22: start to forget where you are. And then you have
- 1:18:24Speaker 22: those stump speeches and you just do them over and
- 1:18:26Speaker 22: over and over again.
- 1:18:27Speaker 4: That has to get to you after a while as well.
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: Yeah, the same thing over and over and over. I mean,
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: I was there with Bruce Blakeman in the Hamptons in
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: July and he's saying the same things now, which he
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: has to say because those are the points that make
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: him the much better candidate. But you're very rarely hearing
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: anything new today than you've heard for the last couple
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: of months. I mean, one thing about sports, they do
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: play games yesterday, right? So you're going to have an outcome.
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: You're going to have a winner and a loser in
- 1:19:04Speaker 1: certain cases. Pretty predictable. Nobody thought the Ravens would beat
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: the Bills yesterday. Nobody really thought the Browns would beat
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: the Steelers, right? But the games still have to be played,
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: and they get played in certain sports every night, football
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: every weekend. These things, these political races, they go on
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: for months, and you don't really hear anything different or
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: anything new, and that's fine. I know what I want
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: for my politicians, and that's Republican, not Democrat, but I'm
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: almost happy. In fact, I am happy this thing is
- 1:19:41Speaker 1: over tomorrow. Win, lose, or draw, I'm happy it's over.
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: You feel the same, though?
- 1:19:46Speaker 22: Yeah, you know, there are some countries that they limit
- 1:19:49Speaker 22: the amount of time you can put commercials on the air.
- 1:19:51Speaker 22: They limit the campaign, you know, because when this thing's
- 1:19:54Speaker 22: over on Tuesday night, you know what we're going to
- 1:19:56Speaker 22: be talking about Wednesday morning.
- 1:19:57Speaker 4: They're going to start talking about the presidential race in.
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: Just two years.
- 1:20:00Speaker 21: No, no, no.
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: First, Republicans will complain the Democrats cheated. I got to
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: tell you, I yelled at a lady Saturday morning, Lou,
- 1:20:06Speaker 1: in our neighborhood. She's sweet. She runs outside the polling center.
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: She goes, you're Sid. I go, yes. Oh, my God,
- 1:20:14Speaker 1: I love you. My husband even loves you more. What's
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: going to happen? I said, well, how do I know
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: what's going to happen? I don't know what's going to happen.
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: I said, why don't you tell me you work in
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: a polling center? She said, they're going to win because
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: they cheat. I am so tired of hearing that. It's
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: so stupid. We really make ourselves sound stupid. The truth is,
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: they don't need to cheat. For every Republican in New York,
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: there's three or four Democrats. We should be cheating because
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: we're outnumbered. I'm not sure we can really win without
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: cheating most of these races. But when you're outnumbered, three
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: or four to one, and you continue with they cheated
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: every race, after a while, when they actually cheat, you're
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: not going to believe it. It's like the boy that
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: cried wolf. They're not cheating in every race. They outnumber us.
- 1:21:09Speaker 1: And quite frankly, a bunch of our candidates, not that impressive.
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: So it's not a shock that they win in this state.
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: The media owns them. The Republicans get, no, I mean, zero,
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: zero FaceTime on any of the networks. Why do they
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: need to cheat, Noam? Two things they don't.
- 1:21:30Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: They don't. So, enough of that already. We're losing because
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: we're outnumbered. The media is against us. And in a
- 1:21:37Speaker 1: lot of cases, our candidates, ugh, boring.
- 1:21:41Speaker 7: Boring.
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: Take a note from President Trump. Take a note from me.
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: I'm not running, but don't be afraid to show a
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: little charisma. Just a little bit. Be funny every now
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: and then. You know what I mean? Make it difficult
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: for these Democrats to vote for their own candidates. And
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: we don't do a very good job of that. I
- 1:22:01Speaker 1: don't know who's in charge of all that. But believe
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: me when I tell you, I have such a bug
- 1:22:07Speaker 1: to run or at least run the party. Do something.
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: Because I go to a lot of events. Louis, Noam,
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: you know that. I host a lot of events. And
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: in the end, I'm the best speaker there. And I'm
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: not running. I'm not running. So there's a lot of
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: reasons why we don't win in this state. And cheating
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: is not the answer every time. Tom Sullivan did get screwed.
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: Pfeffermotto cheated. No question about it. But a lot of
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: these other elections, nobody cheated. You got people out there
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: every day. Dr. Naomi Wolfe, I love her. I love her.
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: Who's the other one? She was on this show. Marley
- 1:22:43Speaker 1: or something or other.
- 1:22:46Speaker 8: Marley Hornick.
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. They got reams of information that Mamdani cheated.
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: You want to make a bet right now that Mamdani
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: never has to leave office? This goes on all the time.
- 1:22:56Speaker 1: We can't just keep contending they're cheating. We need to
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: be better. And that can start tomorrow. And you can help.
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: You can go out and vote, make Republicans winners, and
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: we can fix our party while we win at the
- 1:23:14Speaker 1: same time.
- 1:23:16Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:23:19Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: Not only does he own Gristiti's and D'Agostino's and WABC
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: and Energy and.
- 1:23:27Speaker 11: Oil, this guy flew airplanes.
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: So I had Scott Singer on last hour. He was
- 1:23:32Speaker 1: the former mayor of Boca Raton. Hopefully he's going to
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: beat Jared Moskowitz tomorrow and take us out to D.C.
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: And he doesn't live very far away from where that plane...
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: This is an unbelievable video. It's still online. It's terrifying.
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: Nine people die in this. All nine. This plane crashes.
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: It was such a violent crash. It created a crater.
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: A crater in the street. It crashed in West Palm Beach.
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: only a couple of miles away from Mar-a-Lago. And John,
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: when a plane crashes anywhere near Mar-a-Lago with all the
- 1:24:10Speaker 1: assassination attempts on President Trump, you told me this this morning,
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: no great surprise. You start thinking, oh my God, terrorist act,
- 1:24:19Speaker 1: but really nine people from Austin to the Bahamas, highly doubtful.
- 1:24:24Speaker 11: Well, you always, you know, our intelligence organizations are, are
- 1:24:29Speaker 11: secret service, et cetera, always has to double check with that.
- 1:24:32Speaker 11: If you're just three miles away from Mar-a-Lago, now, you know,
- 1:24:36Speaker 11: you scratch your head and say, we better double check.
- 1:24:39Speaker 11: And then that's the job of, uh, uh, they have
- 1:24:42Speaker 11: to do. Uh, but it's a horrific crash. Um, I
- 1:24:47Speaker 11: think there's, there's also one about in Tik TOK, but
- 1:24:50Speaker 11: I don't use Tik TOK and I don't open Tik TOK, uh,
- 1:24:53Speaker 11: of the woman, uh, pilot, uh, screaming just before the crash.
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:25:02Speaker 11: And if you have anybody with TikTok in the studio here,
- 1:25:06Speaker 11: we'll give it to them and see what it sounds like.
- 1:25:08Speaker 11: But I hate to say it.
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: No, I don't want to hear that.
- 1:25:11Speaker 11: But at the end of the day, if it's not terrorism,
- 1:25:16Speaker 11: and it's probably not, but they have to check anyway,
- 1:25:22Speaker 11: it comes back down to the experience of the pilot's.
- 1:25:26Speaker 11: Don't forget, thunderstorms are not forgiving. They go up. Sometimes
- 1:25:30Speaker 11: they grow at 10,000 feet a minute or whatever. It
- 1:25:37Speaker 11: just grows and throws off all kinds. The energy of
- 1:25:40Speaker 11: a thunderstorm is unbelievable.
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: Right, but they also said beyond thunderstorms that, and again,
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: it took off in Austin, Texas on the way to
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: the Bahamas, there was ice.
- 1:25:49Speaker 11: Well, it's always ice in a thunderstorm. They come up
- 1:25:52Speaker 11: from above. It throws ice cubes at tremendous speeds.
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: Wow.
- 1:25:58Speaker 11: But pilot error, it could be.
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: Could be.
- 1:26:01Speaker 11: I'm going to tell you why. Because as a pilot,
- 1:26:04Speaker 11: and I talked to my friend Billy this morning as
- 1:26:07Speaker 11: a pilot, and I talked to a few other guys, Roger,
- 1:26:10Speaker 11: my chief pilot, and you know what we, pilot error
- 1:26:14Speaker 11: is a lot, very likely, because when you're in a
- 1:26:19Speaker 11: thunderstorm area, you better stay 20 miles away. Not five miles,
- 1:26:25Speaker 11: not two miles. You don't go. And they went right
- 1:26:28Speaker 11: into it. So see the stupidity? I mean, if the
- 1:26:34Speaker 11: female pilot was screaming out before she died.
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: Mayday, mayday, mayday.
- 1:26:41Speaker 11: She was awake.
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: Yeah, she was.
- 1:26:43Speaker 11: So you don't go. I understand the computer shows. you
- 1:26:49Speaker 11: went right into it.
- 1:26:50Speaker 18: Oh yeah.
- 1:26:50Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 1:26:50Speaker 11: That is stupidity. Uh, or I don't know why it
- 1:26:54Speaker 11: would happen.
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: Similar to what happened.
- 1:26:56Speaker 11: Her radar wasn't working.
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: You're probably right.
- 1:26:59Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 1:27:00Speaker 1: Uh, similar when, when Kobe Bryant really wanted to get
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: to his destination with his beautiful daughter, that young kid, uh,
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: that pilot also decided to take off that day and
- 1:27:09Speaker 1: the conditions were not good and the helicopter crash and
- 1:27:12Speaker 1: everybody died.
- 1:27:14Speaker 11: So as a pilot, uh, my, um, Very little likely
- 1:27:20Speaker 11: it was terrorism, but I think it can end up
- 1:27:24Speaker 11: being pilot error for not staying away from that violent thunderstorm.
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: I think you're right, John Katzmatidis. Two great shows on
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: this station, folks. Actually, three now. Weekday Afternoons at 5
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: with Rita Katz and Cosby. weeknights at six with a

- 1:27:45Speaker 1: catch round table, three shows for you, big guy.
- 1:27:48Speaker 11: Well, let me tell you something. We're going to rejiggle the,
- 1:27:52Speaker 11: the whole, uh, uh, I guess the, the whole program
- 1:27:57Speaker 11: by the beginning of the year. Uh, and, uh, we're
- 1:28:00Speaker 11: making a lot of changes.
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: We are.
- 1:28:02Speaker 16: Yes.
- 1:28:02Speaker 11: Yes. And we're making a lot of acquisitions and, uh, uh, look,
- 1:28:07Speaker 11: We want to be the best and provide the best news,
- 1:28:11Speaker 11: et cetera, et cetera. And you got job security. I
- 1:28:15Speaker 11: like you. I'm okay then, right? You're okay. You got
- 1:28:20Speaker 11: job security.
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: Okay. Well, thank you. I like you too.
- 1:28:23Speaker 11: Thank you for that. And the other thing is I
- 1:28:26Speaker 11: was out over the weekend, and I know your bride, Danielle,
- 1:28:30Speaker 11: was in the– you know, running all weekend. And there
- 1:28:35Speaker 11: was a zillion people. Me and Margo went out to
- 1:28:38Speaker 11: vote yesterday and, there was a zillion people out there.
- 1:28:42Speaker 11: People were walking around. It was a beautiful day in
- 1:28:45Speaker 11: New York. It shows you what a beautiful day New
- 1:28:48Speaker 11: York could have. And we voted. We went out for coffee.
- 1:28:52Speaker 11: We went out for some croissants on your side.
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: Nice. And what time was this? What time did you
- 1:28:57Speaker 1: go vote?
- 1:28:57Speaker 11: Marco, let me see. I would say about high noon.
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: About high noon. Yeah. That's about the time when I
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: made my way to 86th Street and First Avenue. I
- 1:29:05Speaker 1: was not too far away. I know. I know. That's
- 1:29:07Speaker 1: why I saw Daniel Money. Where did we vote?
- 1:29:10Speaker 11: About 75th Street, 78th Street?
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: Right there.
- 1:29:12Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: Right there. Yeah, it was beautiful.
- 1:29:15Speaker 11: And look, if anybody tells you they know how The
- 1:29:19Speaker 11: election's going to turn out they're lying to you. I
- 1:29:21Speaker 11: know that, but what does your gut tell you? My
- 1:29:23Speaker 11: gut is that the American people are going to realize,
- 1:29:27Speaker 11: and I could be wrong, American people are going to
- 1:29:29Speaker 11: realize that, how did Mike Pence say it on my show?
- 1:29:35Speaker 11: That the Republicans make a lot of mistakes, and we
- 1:29:37Speaker 11: do make a lot of mistakes, but the The Democrats
- 1:29:43Speaker 11: have lost their mind.
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: They're lunatics.
- 1:29:44Speaker 11: And the problem I have is that the common sense Democrats,
- 1:29:48Speaker 11: and I have a lot of common sense friends as Democrats,
- 1:29:52Speaker 11: and they're too scared. to stand up against them.
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: Right, so when they do that, they're not common sense Democrats.
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: They become just like the bad guys.
- 1:30:01Speaker 11: You know, being scared is being scared.
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: But you can't... You know, not.
- 1:30:05Speaker 11: Listen, you were standing next to me when those protesters
- 1:30:10Speaker 11: came to my home. How did we say it in
- 1:30:12Speaker 11: the movies?
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: My home! Right, my house! My house! My children!
- 1:30:15Speaker 11: Well, you did a great job. I grabbed that one guy.
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:30:18Speaker 11: I locked his arm with him on. I say, make
- 1:30:21Speaker 11: sure our facial recognition equipment gets your face on it
- 1:30:24Speaker 11: so we can track you forever.
- 1:30:26Speaker 1: You did a great job that day because you were
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: very strong in that respect. You were also very nice. Like,
- 1:30:32Speaker 1: they wanted to get angry with you. But I was nice.
- 1:30:35Speaker 18: Right.
- 1:30:35Speaker 1: You were being nice.
- 1:30:36Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: You were being very nice. So you were effective that day.
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: And you can be both.
- 1:30:40Speaker 11: I think I have the capability of being both because
- 1:30:43Speaker 11: I want to be nice. But do you know something?
- 1:30:46Speaker 11: As a CEO, you can't be nice all the time.
- 1:30:49Speaker 11: You have to, you know, because you know why? And
- 1:30:53Speaker 11: it's very, very sad. I want to be nice all
- 1:30:55Speaker 11: the time. But, you know, people take advantage.
- 1:30:58Speaker 18: Sure.
- 1:30:59Speaker 11: And that's why any company that has a lousy CEO,
- 1:31:06Speaker 11: short the stock. Short the stock.
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: Every time.
- 1:31:09Speaker 11: Look at Jamie Dimon. He is a very nice guy.
- 1:31:14Speaker 11: I know his father. I knew for 40 years. I
- 1:31:16Speaker 11: know him for 30 years. And he was sitting next
- 1:31:21Speaker 11: to me at a table a couple of weeks ago.
- 1:31:23Speaker 11: And we told him at all times, but he's a
- 1:31:27Speaker 11: very tough boss too. So any stock that has a
- 1:31:33Speaker 11: CEO that's not, it has to be tough and nice.
- 1:31:37Speaker 11: Otherwise sell it short. Well, but look, look at the
- 1:31:39Speaker 11: CEO of our country. He could be tough, and he's
- 1:31:42Speaker 11: very nice. President Trump. Absolutely.
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: Right?
- 1:31:46Speaker 11: And, you know, that's what it is. Like we said
- 1:31:50Speaker 11: last week, that our enemies are trying to shoot him down,
- 1:31:56Speaker 11: trying to raise the price of oil. And you'll see
- 1:31:59Speaker 11: that if he wins... By Wednesday morning, you'll see oil
- 1:32:03Speaker 11: drop tremendously.
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: But if he loses?
- 1:32:05Speaker 11: If he loses, then the truth is, I think we
- 1:32:09Speaker 11: have to wait and see how he handles it.
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:32:11Speaker 11: He already announced that if he loses, that he's going
- 1:32:14Speaker 11: to issue pardons for all his people at the White
- 1:32:17Speaker 11: House because he doesn't—you know, the Democrats, all they want
- 1:32:21Speaker 11: to do— Which is sad because I was a Democrat.
- 1:32:24Speaker 11: I was a Bill Clinton Democrat.
- 1:32:25Speaker 1: Me too.
- 1:32:26Speaker 11: All they want to do is go after each other.
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. But they want to destroy everybody around Trump.
- 1:32:34Speaker 11: I am very, very disappointed. A lot of Democrats, all
- 1:32:37Speaker 11: they do, they're not telling you what they're going to
- 1:32:39Speaker 11: do that's positive.
- 1:32:40Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 1:32:41Speaker 11: They're accusing everybody else of being a MAGA.
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: And who's at the very top of that list? Kathy Hochul.
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: Every commercial is about Trump, not about Blakeman.
- 1:32:52Speaker 11: Let me say something. MAGA, make American great again. I
- 1:32:56Speaker 11: want to know what American out there It's against making
- 1:33:00Speaker 11: America great again.
- 1:33:01Speaker 1: Every Democrat.
- 1:33:02Speaker 19: Why?
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: Why?
- 1:33:04Speaker 15: I don't know.
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: I have no idea.
- 1:33:06Speaker 15: Because they're crazy.
- 1:33:07Speaker 11: The other people I'm disappointed in is our own European community,
- 1:33:12Speaker 11: our own NATO members, because they'd rather have a weakened
- 1:33:18Speaker 11: Trump so he doesn't break their chops on tariffs, etc.
- 1:33:22Speaker 11: But what tariffs are... Trump is a businessman. Oh, excuse me.
- 1:33:29Speaker 11: What tariffs are is making it even, Stephen.
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:33:32Speaker 11: We sell to you. You sell to us. We don't
- 1:33:35Speaker 11: take advantage of each other. You know how we got
- 1:33:37Speaker 11: a $ 40 trillion deficit? By being too soft. We defended. Sid,
- 1:33:44Speaker 11: we defended the whole world. We defended Japan. We defended Australia.
- 1:33:50Speaker 11: We defended the European community. We defended France. We've been
- 1:33:54Speaker 11: defending Canada. I love Canada. They're great people. They're our
- 1:33:59Speaker 11: brothers and sisters up there. But everybody has to come
- 1:34:04Speaker 11: up with a program that is equal, Stephen. We can't
- 1:34:09Speaker 11: go from a $ 40 trillion deficit to an $ 80 trillion deficit.
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: No, no. Okay?
- 1:34:15Speaker 11: So stop taking advantage of us. And President Trump is
- 1:34:19Speaker 11: the only one, the only one that could stop those
- 1:34:24Speaker 11: countries from taking advantage of us. I mean, you know, Mercedes.
- 1:34:31Speaker 11: They sell his Mercedes, the tariff is this much.
- 1:34:33Speaker 1: Little. Yeah, small.
- 1:34:35Speaker 11: We sell them a Chevrolet, the tariff is triple coupons.
- 1:34:39Speaker 1: I know. I mean, that's what.
- 1:34:40Speaker 11: It comes down to.
- 1:34:41Speaker 1: It makes no sense.
- 1:34:42Speaker 11: And the other thing that Trump is doing well, bringing
- 1:34:46Speaker 11: back the pharmaceutical companies from India, from China, bringing back
- 1:34:51Speaker 11: the automobile companies. And you know what he's telling the
- 1:34:53Speaker 11: automobile companies? There's no tariffs if you manufacture the automobile
- 1:34:58Speaker 11: in America.
- 1:34:59Speaker 17: Right.
- 1:35:00Speaker 11: What's wrong with that?
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: It's great. That's how you make America great again.
- 1:35:03Speaker 11: That's why, that's why all the union workers, guess whose
- 1:35:07Speaker 11: side they're really on?
- 1:35:08Speaker 1: Trump.
- 1:35:09Speaker 16: Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:35:09Speaker 1: No, there's no doubt about it. You're a hundred percent right, John.
- 1:35:12Speaker 1: All right. So on the way out, then here we go.
- 1:35:14Speaker 1: The fearless prediction. You got to do it. You have
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: to Wednesday morning. Is president Trump waking up happy or not?
- 1:35:24Speaker 11: I think we're going to be more happy than that.
- 1:35:25Speaker 1: Okay, good.
- 1:35:26Speaker 16: Good.
- 1:35:27Speaker 11: I love my gut feeling, but I'm, I'm a natural optimist. Yeah.
- 1:35:32Speaker 11: I'm a natural optimist. Yeah. So, I mean, I would
- 1:35:35Speaker 11: be disappointed in the American people if they didn't realize
- 1:35:40Speaker 11: that America is under attack by all these characters.
- 1:35:42Speaker 1: Does El-Sayed beat Rogers?
- 1:35:46Speaker 11: I don't think so. I don't think the people of Michigan, unless,
- 1:35:50Speaker 11: you know, unless the people of Michigan come out, I mean,
- 1:35:56Speaker 11: unless they're cheating, I think the people of Michigan... love
- 1:36:01Speaker 11: President Trump.
- 1:36:02Speaker 1: Right, so Rodgers wins.
- 1:36:03Speaker 11: And Rodgers wins.
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: Does Paxton beat Tallarico in Texas?
- 1:36:06Speaker 11: I think the people of Texas, I think Paxton wins.
- 1:36:09Speaker 1: You do? And does Kathy Hochul stay on? I know
- 1:36:12Speaker 1: you love Bruce, too. I know we all love Bruce.
- 1:36:14Speaker 1: But does Kathy Hochul stay on as governor?
- 1:36:16Speaker 11: I love Bruce. I know Kathy Hochul very well. And
- 1:36:20Speaker 11: I think it's going to be closer than everybody thinks.
- 1:36:23Speaker 11: It could go either way.
- 1:36:24Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:36:24Speaker 11: And I think a lot of these closet people will
- 1:36:30Speaker 11: come out and a lot of them are going to
- 1:36:32Speaker 11: vote for Blakeman.
- 1:36:33Speaker 1: Like they did with Trump.
- 1:36:34Speaker 11: They won't tell the pollsters.
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: Right, right. Exactly right.
- 1:36:38Speaker 11: Look, Kathy Hochul does have a big advantage. So the
- 1:36:42Speaker 11: chances are she will be there. A Chinese general, I
- 1:36:46Speaker 11: think Tish James wins.
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: You think she wins? Does Sarita make it close?
- 1:36:51Speaker 11: Sarita makes it closer than any other ones have it.
- 1:36:54Speaker 1: That's good.
- 1:36:55Speaker 11: Because people have to remember their name. My advice to
- 1:36:57Speaker 11: her was, you know, come up with a short name.
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:37:01Speaker 11: If you gave me a million dollars, I can't tell
- 1:37:04Speaker 11: you her name right now.
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: Oh, Coma Toretti. That's not easy.
- 1:37:06Speaker 11: I can't tell you.
- 1:37:07Speaker 1: What do you think?
- 1:37:08Speaker 11: Tom DiNapoli wins.
- 1:37:09Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 1:37:09Speaker 1: He wins, too. He beats Joe Hernandez.
- 1:37:11Speaker 11: Tom DiNapoli's a friend. Look, Hernandez is very.
- 1:37:13Speaker 1: Good, too. He's going to be in this show tomorrow.
- 1:37:15Speaker 1: In studio. Remember, we brought him in when he ran
- 1:37:18Speaker 1: for mayor.
- 1:37:18Speaker 11: Hernandez is very good. Yes. But Tom DiNapoli, I know
- 1:37:23Speaker 11: for 40 years.
- 1:37:23Speaker 1: Everybody likes Tom DiNapoli.
- 1:37:24Speaker 11: So that's my question.
- 1:37:26Speaker 1: One more for you.
- 1:37:26Speaker 11: What do you think?
- 1:37:27Speaker 1: Because I think Jessica Tish is going to run and
- 1:37:29Speaker 1: may end up being the only person that can beat
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: Mom Donnie. But there are some saying that if Sarita
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: loses to James, she could consider running for mayor. What
- 1:37:37Speaker 1: are your thoughts?
- 1:37:38Speaker 11: Well, people have to remember her name.
- 1:37:40Speaker 1: Right. And is there enough charisma there? That's the only thing.
- 1:37:42Speaker 11: The thing is that Jessica Tish's dad is worth $ 12 billion.
- 1:37:47Speaker 21: Right.
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: That helps too.
- 1:37:49Speaker 11: So he could write a hundred million dollar check and
- 1:37:51Speaker 11: not feel it. Right.
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: And not have to worry about getting donations from, from
- 1:37:54Speaker 1: people on the street.
- 1:37:55Speaker 11: Well, when I ran, I, you know, 2013, that's Jesus
- 1:37:59Speaker 11: Christ at 13 years ago. Uh, and, uh, I, I
- 1:38:03Speaker 11: didn't have fundraisers. I had friend raises, uh, and, um,
- 1:38:07Speaker 11: uh i spent it was a lot of money at
- 1:38:10Speaker 11: the time but i i think i i got accomplished
- 1:38:14Speaker 11: uh i spent like 12 and a half million dollars
- 1:38:17Speaker 11: in my own money yeah uh and uh uh but
- 1:38:22Speaker 11: i wasn't running against joe loder and i like joe
- 1:38:24Speaker 11: loder you know i never i never said anything bad
- 1:38:27Speaker 11: about any of my opponents you know what i did
- 1:38:29Speaker 11: and I tell this to all candidates. Tell people what
- 1:38:33Speaker 11: a good job you're going to do, not what a
- 1:38:35Speaker 11: bad job your opponents are.
- 1:38:36Speaker 1: Going to do. I love that. But none of the
- 1:38:38Speaker 1: people do that.
- 1:38:39Speaker 11: Nobody does that.
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: I agree with you.
- 1:38:41Speaker 11: Attack, attack, attack.
- 1:38:42Speaker 1: That's it.
- 1:38:43Speaker 11: I'm going to tell you how good of a job
- 1:38:44Speaker 11: I'm going to do. I'm not going to tell you
- 1:38:46Speaker 11: how bad of a job my opponents can do. Or
- 1:38:47Speaker 11: if you're Trump, you can do both. You can boast
- 1:38:49Speaker 11: about what you've done and attack. I'm still friends with
- 1:38:52Speaker 11: de Blasio. I'm still friends with.
- 1:38:55Speaker 1: Wiener. I'm still friends with everybody. Schumer.
- 1:38:58Speaker 11: But I believe in common sense, and I'm disappointed in
- 1:39:02Speaker 11: a lot of my Democratic friends. that don't fight harder
- 1:39:05Speaker 11: for common sense.
- 1:39:06Speaker 1: Fair enough. It's great to see you. Great job this morning.
- 1:39:08Speaker 1: Great job. Great job. That's Sean Katz and Matides, Katz
- 1:39:11Speaker 1: and Cosby, 5 p.m. What's the name of the show
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: at 6 p.m.? Is there a name for the show?
- 1:39:16Speaker 1: I've listened.
- 1:39:16Speaker 11: The Final Countdown?
- 1:39:17Speaker 1: I don't know. The Final Countdown. I like it.
- 1:39:20Speaker 11: You know, we're going to see. There's going to be
- 1:39:21Speaker 11: changes there, too. We'll see. We're going to expand that
- 1:39:25Speaker 11: show permanently, probably.
- 1:39:27Speaker 1: Oh, you are? Okay. So that's 6 o'clock tonight and
- 1:39:29Speaker 1: 8 a.m. every Sunday morning for Masterpiece.
- 1:39:32Speaker 11: From 5 p.m. To 1 a.m.
- 1:39:36Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
- 1:39:36Speaker 11: A six-hour special talking about the election.
- 1:39:40Speaker 1: 5 p.m. to 1 a.m.? Yes. That's eight hours. That's
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: eight hours. You know something? That's eight hours. Yes.
- 1:39:47Speaker 11: The eight-hour show.
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: Wow, that is a big show. Yes. You think by
- 1:39:51Speaker 1: 1 a.m. in the morning we'll know all of the results?
- 1:39:54Speaker 11: I think maybe you're not going to know Alaska.
- 1:39:56Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:39:56Speaker 11: But, you know, they're four hours ahead of us or
- 1:39:58Speaker 11: five hours.
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:40:00Speaker 11: But we're going to know a substantial amount.
- 1:40:02Speaker 1: All right. You're great, John. Thank you very much. Excellent
- 1:40:04Speaker 1: job right there by my man, John Katzmatidis. A lot
- 1:40:13Speaker 1: of people congratulating Danielle. My phone has been blowing up
- 1:40:17Speaker 1: for two days. I didn't run the race. Okay?
- 1:40:20Speaker 13: I didn't run the race.
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: My wife did all the work, training and training and
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: training and running the race yesterday. But the whole weekend,
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: even though Halloween was Saturday, It was basically about the race.
- 1:40:35Speaker 1: So Danielle took off. She went to Manhattan, stayed with
- 1:40:39Speaker 1: her friend Jessica, and they prepared for two days. So
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: I had Gabe for dinner on Friday night. La Sorrentina.
- 1:40:46Speaker 1: Thank you, John and Joe. Had Ava on Saturday night.
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: La Sorrentina. Thank you, John and Joe. Two wonderful dinners.
- 1:40:54Speaker 1: My kids got the choice. They both picked the same place,
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: which is a great local Italian restaurant that Lou and
- 1:40:59Speaker 1: MJ love as well. And then Saturday, I saw my
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: dear friend Charlie Marino. You know Charlie Lewis. He's a
- 1:41:06Speaker 1: great guy. Great guy. You know, he's got his own bar, too,
- 1:41:10Speaker 1: in Hempstead called Legends. And he's got a big night
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: coming up, too, which he invited me to Monday night,
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: November the 23rd, a big cigar night. And that's going
- 1:41:19Speaker 1: to be very exciting from 7 to 10. And I'll
- 1:41:21Speaker 1: be there. Dinner, open bars, cigars. Great place. Legend Sports
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: Bar in Hempstead. Charlie Marino. Charlie's been a friend of
- 1:41:28Speaker 1: mine for a very long time. So you had all
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: that this weekend. Oh, thank you to Maureen Walsh, also
- 1:41:34Speaker 1: the great makeup lady. Maureen, we call her Mo, for
- 1:41:38Speaker 1: her congratulations. So it was a great weekend filled with family, fun, fun.
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: And the marathon. We've got to get to the news
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: because coming up is Bruce Blakeman. The big one. Bruce
- 1:41:52Speaker 1: Blakeman coming up.
- 1:41:54Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:41:58Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
- 1:42:00Speaker 1: He's a terrific guy and he's ready. He is ready.
- 1:42:03Speaker 1: And New York, we are ready for him. My dear
- 1:42:06Speaker 1: friend Bruce Blakeman makes his return to Sid and Friends
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: in the Morning. Voter out. Bruce Blakeman is coming up.
- 1:42:14Speaker 2: Next, Sid and friends in the morning on the Red
- 1:42:19Speaker 2: Apple Podcast Network.
- 1:42:21Speaker 1: When he was considering running for governor, he put his
- 1:42:24Speaker 1: trust in me and he's run a tremendous campaign. He
- 1:42:28Speaker 1: really has. He's beaten her in every which way. He
- 1:42:32Speaker 1: destroyed her in the debate. He talks about the issues.
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: She talks about Trump. She's sitting there watching a Buffalo
- 1:42:38Speaker 1: Bills football game yesterday with Mamdani and AOC, two very
- 1:42:42Speaker 1: dangerous and terrible people, and my guy is running between
- 1:42:45Speaker 1: Manhattan and the northern part of the state. If it
- 1:42:48Speaker 1: was really all about credentials, policy, and really capability, Bruce
- 1:42:57Speaker 1: Blakeman would destroy this lady tomorrow. But unfortunately in New York,
- 1:43:02Speaker 1: it's not about that. It's about Do I love the Democrats?
- 1:43:06Speaker 1: Do I hate Trump? Because Bruce has been outstanding. So
- 1:43:10Speaker 1: let me start right off the bat by congratulating my
- 1:43:14Speaker 1: friend on a tremendous campaign while still doing a great
- 1:43:19Speaker 1: job running a huge county in Nassau County. So before
- 1:43:23Speaker 1: the results even come in tomorrow, Bruce, congratulations.
- 1:43:28Speaker 16: Well, thank you, Sid, and thank you for your support.
- 1:43:30Speaker 16: You've been a really, really dear friend, like a brother
- 1:43:33Speaker 16: to me. And it's deeply appreciated. I'm heading to the
- 1:43:38Speaker 16: Embassy Diner in Bethpage right now. We're going to have
- 1:43:41Speaker 16: a little media availability. Then I'm hopping on a plane.
- 1:43:44Speaker 16: We're going to Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and probably Binghamton. And
- 1:43:52Speaker 16: then we're going to try and get into Manhattan later tonight.
- 1:43:56Speaker 16: Wrap it up. Tomorrow I'll vote. And tomorrow night, I
- 1:44:00Speaker 16: think we're going to have a really sweet victory. I
- 1:44:04Speaker 16: feel it everywhere, especially in New York City. When people
- 1:44:08Speaker 16: come up to me in the Bronx and Queens and
- 1:44:11Speaker 16: Brooklyn and Staten Island and Manhattan, and they tell me
- 1:44:15Speaker 16: I'm a Democrat, I've never voted Republican before, but I'm
- 1:44:18Speaker 16: voting for you and I'm voting Republican this year. It
- 1:44:21Speaker 16: gives me great encouragement that people are fed up with
- 1:44:25Speaker 16: the high taxes, the high utility bills. Two women were
- 1:44:29Speaker 16: raped in New York City. And just the last week,
- 1:44:33Speaker 16: and Kathy Hochul has the gall to stand there with
- 1:44:35Speaker 16: Zoran Mondami and say it's safer. It's not safer. A
- 1:44:39Speaker 16: 15-year-old boy was shot in New York City last week.
- 1:44:43Speaker 16: It's not safer. It's all a hoax. And the fact
- 1:44:46Speaker 16: of the matter is everybody needs to go out and
- 1:44:50Speaker 16: vote to save our state because I'm the only one
- 1:44:54Speaker 16: that can stop Zoran Mondami. I'm the only one that
- 1:44:57Speaker 16: will cut taxes. You know Kathy Hochul will increase taxes.
- 1:45:00Speaker 16: I'm the only one that can cut utility bills, and
- 1:45:03Speaker 16: I am the only one that will be able to
- 1:45:05Speaker 16: make safer communities for you and your families because the
- 1:45:09Speaker 16: choice is between hokumandami and sanity.
- 1:45:13Speaker 1: That's an easy choice. So she's also on record calling
- 1:45:16Speaker 1: upstate New Yorkers dumb, and she also called black people dumb,
- 1:45:21Speaker 1: black kids. They're dumb. They can't work a computer. She
- 1:45:24Speaker 1: called them unsophisticated, excuse me, which is pretty surprising. But
- 1:45:28Speaker 1: for you, what has been... the most surprising tidbit since
- 1:45:35Speaker 1: you started this campaign?
- 1:45:38Speaker 16: Well, I think the surprising thing is how many New
- 1:45:42Speaker 16: York City residents who are Democrats actually now see clearly
- 1:45:47Speaker 16: as to what their party's becoming. This isn't the party
- 1:45:50Speaker 16: of Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Ed Koch, Hugh Carey. even Mario
- 1:45:55Speaker 16: Cuomo and Bill Clinton. This is an un-American party led
- 1:46:00Speaker 16: by left-wing extremists, socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christian, anti-American. And for
- 1:46:08Speaker 16: the Democratic Party to get back to normal, they need
- 1:46:12Speaker 16: a big kick in the butt, and we're going to
- 1:46:14Speaker 16: give it to them tomorrow night.
- 1:46:15Speaker 1: You know, you say you're a little surprised. Maybe the
- 1:46:17Speaker 1: biggest surprise is the people in the city. But the
- 1:46:20Speaker 1: truth is, Bruce, and I give you credit for this,
- 1:46:22Speaker 1: you and Lawler, both you guys win in Democrat districts.
- 1:46:27Speaker 1: So when you get a large amount of Democrat votes
- 1:46:30Speaker 1: tomorrow and throughout the last week, it shouldn't be surprising
- 1:46:35Speaker 1: you're one of the very few, this is a big
- 1:46:37Speaker 1: credit to you, you're one of the very few politicians
- 1:46:40Speaker 1: who's able to win across the aisle. You've seen this before.
- 1:46:46Speaker 16: Well, you know, Sid, everybody wants the same thing when
- 1:46:48Speaker 16: it comes to state government. This isn't about the national elections.
- 1:46:53Speaker 16: This is about the fact that Kathy Hochul has made
- 1:46:55Speaker 16: it unaffordable with higher taxes, higher utility bills and rampant crime.
- 1:47:01Speaker 16: People want safe communities. They want lower taxes and they
- 1:47:04Speaker 16: want their utility bills cut. And I don't care if
- 1:47:07Speaker 16: you're an independent or Republican or Democrat. Everybody wants the
- 1:47:10Speaker 16: same thing.
- 1:47:11Speaker 1: I just wonder, you know, look at all our commercials again.
- 1:47:14Speaker 1: All she talks about is Mr. Trump, man. Oh, excuse me, Blakeman.
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: I mean, so stupid. Seriously, man. So sophomoric. She's probably
- 1:47:23Speaker 1: sitting there. Oh, what a great job. They're terrible. Can
- 1:47:27Speaker 1: she tell us one thing, one thing, Bruce, not three,
- 1:47:32Speaker 1: not five, like you've done five, cut taxes, kept crime down,
- 1:47:36Speaker 1: stopped anti-Semitism, took the masks off. You did all these
- 1:47:40Speaker 1: things in Knoxville County. Can she tell us one thing
- 1:47:43Speaker 1: she's done well as governor in New York? One.
- 1:47:48Speaker 16: No, Sid, she can't. That's why she talks about Trump, Trump, Trump.
- 1:47:53Speaker 16: She doesn't want to talk about a record because it's
- 1:47:55Speaker 16: one of failure and misery. The Cato Institute, an independent
- 1:47:59Speaker 16: research group, used objective standards and metrics, and they rated
- 1:48:05Speaker 16: all the governors of the United States of America. And
- 1:48:09Speaker 16: Kathy Hochul came in number 50, 5-0. You don't get
- 1:48:13Speaker 16: worse than that. There's only 50 states. So she is
- 1:48:17Speaker 16: the worst governor we've ever had We are in a
- 1:48:20Speaker 16: death spiral right now. And that's why that Willie Nelson
- 1:48:24Speaker 16: song you had on a few minutes ago. I love
- 1:48:26Speaker 16: that song.
- 1:48:27Speaker 1: Isn't that great, Bruce?
- 1:48:28Speaker 16: You know what?
- 1:48:29Speaker 1: Throw her out.
- 1:48:30Speaker 16: Throw her out. Let's get some change here. Let's put
- 1:48:33Speaker 16: us in the right direction. We are number 50 in
- 1:48:35Speaker 16: economic outlook. Let's create good jobs, prosperity. Let's make people
- 1:48:39Speaker 16: happy again in New York because Kathy Hochul's made them miserable.
- 1:48:42Speaker 1: I just wonder, is there a relationship? I never asked
- 1:48:46Speaker 1: you this. I kept you at the bait, for example.
- 1:48:48Speaker 1: Did you guys exchange any pleasantries when you left New
- 1:48:52Speaker 1: York one that night? Was there a handshake? Was there
- 1:48:55Speaker 1: a smile? Or is it, listen, you guys are running
- 1:48:58Speaker 1: against each other, but some people generally don't like each other.
- 1:49:01Speaker 1: What is the relationship between you and Hochul?
- 1:49:05Speaker 16: Well, I don't. I don't have any animus towards her.
- 1:49:08Speaker 16: I think she's a terrible mayor. I am told she
- 1:49:11Speaker 16: doesn't like me. But after the debate, I shook her hand.
- 1:49:15Speaker 16: I asked her how she was holding up and her
- 1:49:17Speaker 16: family was holding up. And look, in the final analysis,
- 1:49:21Speaker 16: we're all human beings. So I have empathy for people
- 1:49:27Speaker 16: who are in the public arena because it's tough. It
- 1:49:29Speaker 16: is really tough. But the fact of the matter is,
- 1:49:32Speaker 16: is I hope I hold no animus towards her.
- 1:49:34Speaker 1: I don't I don't.
- 1:49:36Speaker 16: I don't think about her as far as a person.
- 1:49:39Speaker 16: I think about her as a governor, and she's a
- 1:49:41Speaker 16: terrible governor. I mean, this is about her record. This
- 1:49:44Speaker 16: is about her ability. She lacks ability, and she's got
- 1:49:47Speaker 16: a terrible record.
- 1:49:48Speaker 1: Somebody said to me last week, I couldn't believe it.
- 1:49:51Speaker 1: They said, yeah, but you got to appreciate what she's
- 1:49:53Speaker 1: done for anti-Semitism. I said, wait a second. Her and
- 1:49:56Speaker 1: Letitia James- what they've done for anti-Semitism. Last I checked, yeah,
- 1:50:01Speaker 1: they can boast murders are down in New York. They
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: can boast they've taken some guns off the street. But
- 1:50:07Speaker 1: last I checked, hate crimes, specifically against the Jewish people,
- 1:50:12Speaker 1: are at an all-time high. What exactly has Kathy Hochul
- 1:50:16Speaker 1: done to combat anti-Semitism?
- 1:50:19Speaker 16: Oh, she's done absolutely nothing. You were with me at
- 1:50:22Speaker 16: Columbia University. Did you see her come in with the
- 1:50:25Speaker 16: state police or the National Guard to protect Jewish students?
- 1:50:29Speaker 1: No, no, not her or Eric Adams.
- 1:50:32Speaker 16: She didn't say a word. Not one word. She just
- 1:50:36Speaker 16: let things go. And that never would have happened with me.
- 1:50:40Speaker 16: That thing would have been over in 15 minutes.
- 1:50:42Speaker 1: You were out there wearing a yarmulke. Such a brave guy.
- 1:50:45Speaker 1: I loved it. You were so great that day, Bruce.
- 1:50:47Speaker 1: And then standing with you the last couple of weeks
- 1:50:50Speaker 1: a lot has been Saritha running against Letitia James. I
- 1:50:55Speaker 1: think she's made this race very, very close because just
- 1:50:59Speaker 1: like you destroyed Hochul in your debate, I thought Saritha
- 1:51:02Speaker 1: really embarrassed Letitia James. How do you feel about the
- 1:51:05Speaker 1: rest of the Republicans on this ballot?
- 1:51:08Speaker 16: Well, I feel very good. Look, let's compare my lieutenant
- 1:51:12Speaker 16: governor running mate, Todd Hood, highly decorated Syracuse police officer,
- 1:51:17Speaker 16: now the sheriff of Madison County, stand-up guy, family man,
- 1:51:21Speaker 16: law and order guy against Adrian Adams, who was the
- 1:51:26Speaker 16: city council president of New York, and she believes that
- 1:51:30Speaker 16: illegal migrants should vote. That means she wants to dilute
- 1:51:33Speaker 16: the power of us as New York state citizens. I mean,
- 1:51:37Speaker 16: that's what Kathy Hochul and Adrienne Adams want to do.
- 1:51:40Speaker 16: That's why they're paying $ 81, 000 per year for illegal migrants
- 1:51:45Speaker 16: to live here and get free everything, because they want
- 1:51:48Speaker 16: to pass a law that illegal migrants can vote in
- 1:51:52Speaker 16: this state. So let's compare that. Then Saritha to Letitia James. Saritha,
- 1:51:57Speaker 16: a very highly experienced and capable attorney general. I mean,
- 1:52:02Speaker 16: a prosecutor. She'll make a great attorney general, but she
- 1:52:04Speaker 16: was a prosecutor. That's the same thing as being an
- 1:52:07Speaker 16: attorney general. So she doesn't need any training. She's ready
- 1:52:11Speaker 16: to go from day one to protect our communities. Joe Hernandez,
- 1:52:15Speaker 16: this guy's an immigrant from Cuba, came here with nothing.
- 1:52:19Speaker 16: Now he's made himself a fortune. He wants to give
- 1:52:22Speaker 16: back to the state by running for state comptroller. Mike Lawler,
- 1:52:27Speaker 16: stand-up guy, represents his district well. Never, never, never backs down.
- 1:52:34Speaker 16: He and Nicola Loda and Andrew Garbarino, they fought hard,
- 1:52:39Speaker 16: along with Nicole Malliotakis, to keep our salt deduction and
- 1:52:43Speaker 16: increase the salt deduction. They were fighting for us. They
- 1:52:46Speaker 16: fought against people in their own party. They convinced President
- 1:52:50Speaker 16: Trump to increase the salt deduction.
- 1:52:53Speaker 1: So.
- 1:52:53Speaker 16: You know, we've got a great ticket. And Janine Driscoll
- 1:52:57Speaker 16: and Michael Petri here, I believe, are going to be
- 1:53:00Speaker 16: on the winner's podium tomorrow night because I think people
- 1:53:03Speaker 16: are fed up with the policies of the Democratic Party
- 1:53:07Speaker 16: and the fact that Hakeem James might be the speaker.
- 1:53:10Speaker 16: This guy is gone far left. He used to be
- 1:53:13Speaker 16: a moderate Democrat, but now he's caved into the socialists.
- 1:53:16Speaker 16: Everybody in the Democratic Party is caving into the socialists.
- 1:53:20Speaker 1: They really are. They're showing to be very big cowards.
- 1:53:24Speaker 1: Two more will let you run, Bruce Blakeman. Have you
- 1:53:26Speaker 1: talked to or heard from President Trump recently? I know
- 1:53:31Speaker 1: he's done 35 cities in about 28 days. He's got
- 1:53:33Speaker 1: to be exhausted. Finally ended with Kansas and Iowa this weekend.
- 1:53:38Speaker 1: Any communication between you and the president the last couple
- 1:53:41Speaker 1: of days?
- 1:53:42Speaker 16: Yes, I spoke to him Saturday, and he had a
- 1:53:45Speaker 16: tele-rally for me and all the candidates in the state
- 1:53:48Speaker 16: of New York. We had a very nice chat. He's
- 1:53:51Speaker 16: working very, very hard. So, yeah, we had a nice chat,
- 1:53:56Speaker 16: and he said he expects me to win, and he'll
- 1:54:01Speaker 16: give me a call once the results are completed.
- 1:54:04Speaker 1: Fantastic. Last one. You know, you've been a Nassau County guy,
- 1:54:08Speaker 1: Long Island guy, and now that you've been running for
- 1:54:10Speaker 1: governor all this time, you've had the opportunity to meet
- 1:54:13Speaker 1: all these people in a lot of these cities where,
- 1:54:16Speaker 1: let's be honest, Bruce, you never would have gone if
- 1:54:19Speaker 1: you weren't running for governor. And a lot of these
- 1:54:20Speaker 1: cities that have bad reputations, drug addled, no jobs, people
- 1:54:26Speaker 1: really at the bottom of the ladder. A lot of
- 1:54:29Speaker 1: our big cities, Syracuse, Rochester, Utica, Binghamton, Monticello. Oh, I
- 1:54:35Speaker 1: keep going. I keep going. But you've met these people now.
- 1:54:38Speaker 1: What was it like meeting these people in these cities?
- 1:54:42Speaker 1: The people that Kathy Hochul referred to as, quote, unsophisticated.
- 1:54:48Speaker 16: Well, Sid, I've been going up to those cities for years.
- 1:54:52Speaker 16: I did a lot of business in those cities before.
- 1:54:54Speaker 16: for years as a lawyer and as a business person.
- 1:54:58Speaker 16: So I've been going up there. I've got dear friends
- 1:55:00Speaker 16: in Buffalo, Rochester, and Syracuse. It's beautiful up there. It's
- 1:55:05Speaker 16: breathtakingly beautiful. I was up in Oswego and Rensselaer County yesterday.
- 1:55:10Speaker 16: And as I said, I'm flying around the state today.
- 1:55:13Speaker 16: It's breathtakingly beautiful. But Kathy Hochul has ignored upstate New York.
- 1:55:19Speaker 16: Every governor since George Pataki has ignored upstate New York.
- 1:55:23Speaker 16: My job is to reinvigorate upstate New York, create jobs,
- 1:55:27Speaker 16: create prosperity. Those people up there are longing for somebody
- 1:55:32Speaker 16: who will step up to the plate and back them
- 1:55:35Speaker 16: and make sure that they get the resources they need
- 1:55:38Speaker 16: to revitalize cities like Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Utica, Rome, Binghamton.
- 1:55:43Speaker 16: I could go on and on and on. and all
- 1:55:46Speaker 16: the little towns and villages in between, because they're all suffering.
- 1:55:50Speaker 16: And it's because of Kathy Hochul's energy policies or tax
- 1:55:53Speaker 16: policies and her policies towards business, treating business like the
- 1:55:57Speaker 16: enemy rather than treating business like a partner, because those
- 1:56:00Speaker 16: are the ones that are going to create the great
- 1:56:03Speaker 16: jobs and the great benefits that the people of New
- 1:56:06Speaker 16: York deserve. I will clean up the urban areas of Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Utica,
- 1:56:12Speaker 16: and Rome. We will invest in those areas. I will
- 1:56:14Speaker 16: invest in law enforcement. We will rebuild New York State
- 1:56:19Speaker 16: from Montauk to Jamestown and all points in between.
- 1:56:24Speaker 1: Everybody who voted for you early and votes for you
- 1:56:27Speaker 1: tomorrow should be very proud of the candidate and man
- 1:56:29Speaker 1: that you are, Bruce. And you should be very proud
- 1:56:31Speaker 1: of yourself. I know Joe Cairo's proud and Peter King
- 1:56:35Speaker 1: and Mozzie Pillop and all your friends on Long Island.
- 1:56:38Speaker 1: But man, what a campaign you've run. And of course,
- 1:56:41Speaker 1: I love you very, very much. And I wish you
- 1:56:43Speaker 1: the best of luck tomorrow, not just for you, but
- 1:56:46Speaker 1: for New York. We need you to win. But either way,
- 1:56:49Speaker 1: I'm very, very proud of you, Bruce. And There's nothing
- 1:56:52Speaker 1: else you could have done. So go out there and
- 1:56:54Speaker 1: win tomorrow and make New York great again, please.
- 1:56:58Speaker 16: All right, Sid. Thank you, my brother. You're the best.
- 1:57:01Speaker 16: I love you. God bless you.
- 1:57:03Speaker 1: I love you too. What a guy, Bruce Blakeman. What
- 1:57:05Speaker 1: an amazing campaign this guy ran. This guy still ran
- 1:57:08Speaker 1: Nassau County, which is bigger than five states, Nassau County,
- 1:57:14Speaker 1: while running for governor. And I'm going to say it again,
- 1:57:17Speaker 1: no matter what happens tomorrow, because you just can't trust
- 1:57:21Speaker 1: New Yorkers. We are pound for pound the dumbest people
- 1:57:24Speaker 1: in the country. I said it. That's right. We are
- 1:57:28Speaker 1: the dumbest people in the country. There's no other way
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: you can vote in people like Hochul, Mamdani, AOC, and
- 1:57:37Speaker 1: don't tell me they cheat. Stop. Stop. Okay? We're the
- 1:57:41Speaker 1: dumbest people, pound for pound. Not my listeners. Not the
- 1:57:46Speaker 1: people that love me. You guys are brilliant. You guys
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: are smart. But the majority of this state are the
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: dumbest people in America. The dumbest. And that's my fear
- 1:57:57Speaker 1: come tomorrow for Bruce and many other candidates. But you
- 1:58:01Speaker 1: got to play the game, right? Right, Justin? You got
- 1:58:04Speaker 1: to play the game.
- 1:58:05Speaker 24: Uh-huh.
- 1:58:06Speaker 1: Even the Eagles had a chance last night until the
- 1:58:08Speaker 1: opening kickoff.
- 1:58:09Speaker 11: Yeah, exactly right.
- 1:58:10Speaker 1: Right good point what happened to that team jeez i don't.
- 1:58:12Speaker 26: Know is it all over talk about talk about cratering
- 1:58:15Speaker 26: are they gonna fire the coach uh yeah i hope so.
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: You said why the guy went to two super bowls
- 1:58:20Speaker 1: you're so nasty well you know how jet bands they'd
- 1:58:23Speaker 1: love a guy like that.
- 1:58:24Speaker 8: Yeah, but when his whole role is incumbent upon his
- 1:58:28Speaker 8: ability to bring the locker room together.
- 1:58:29Speaker 1: They went to two Super Bowls. He won a Super
- 1:58:31Speaker 1: Bowl three years ago.
- 1:58:32Speaker 26: I understand, but it's not like he's doing anything else
- 1:58:34Speaker 26: other than connecting with the players. And he's doing a
- 1:58:36Speaker 26: great bang-up job of that this year.
- 1:58:38Speaker 1: So what happened three years ago is already gone. That's it.
- 1:58:40Speaker 8: No, we'll always have that. You see the shirt I'm
- 1:58:42Speaker 8: wearing today?
- 1:58:43Speaker 1: Right, right. Yeah. Right. Well, you're probably going to say
- 1:58:45Speaker 1: it was dig for meal and not.
- 1:58:48Speaker 1: What is this guy's name? Nick Sirianni. Nick Sirianni. That's right.
- 1:58:51Speaker 8: I could have done just about the same thing.
- 1:58:53Speaker 1: Oh, see, this is what I'm talking about. No appreciation. None. No. Zero.
- 1:58:57Speaker 18: No.
- 1:58:57Speaker 1: Did you vote already?
- 1:58:58Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:58:59Speaker 1: All right. Lou, you voted, right?
- 1:59:02Speaker 11: I did.
- 1:59:02Speaker 1: You did? I believe no one voted as well. Did
- 1:59:05Speaker 1: Michael Rappaport vote yet?
- 1:59:06Speaker 8: We're going to find out.
- 1:59:07Speaker 1: How? Because he's on the phone. He's on the phone?
- 1:59:10Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: This phone.
- 1:59:11Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:59:11Speaker 1: Michael Rappaport? Yeah. Are you busting my balls? No, not. Oh,
- 1:59:16Speaker 1: he's awesome. Yeah, he's great, isn't he? Amazing comedian. Come on.
- 1:59:20Speaker 1: Great actor. Tremendous Jewish advocate. And maybe, just maybe, his
- 1:59:27Speaker 1: wife's going to get mad. I know it. Sorry, Kimmy.
- 1:59:30Speaker 1: Maybe the next mayor. All that, Michael Rappaport. Still to come.
- 1:59:34Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:59:38Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
- 1:59:40Speaker 10: The Mets, who lost 89 games last year, finished ninth,
- 1:59:44Speaker 10: are three outs away now being the world champion. Jerry Kuzma,
- 1:59:48Speaker 10: since he gave up three runs in the third, has
- 1:59:51Speaker 10: shut out the Orioles, has retired 16 of the last
- 1:59:55Speaker 10: 17 batters. He walked in, and the Orioles now have
- 1:59:58Speaker 10: the tying run of the plate. That is the first
- 2:00:00Speaker 10: walk given up by Jerry Kuzma in the game.
- 2:00:02Speaker 1: Powell has flied to left, struck out.
- 2:00:05Speaker 10: Single to left. Bounding ball to second. The throw is
- 2:00:09Speaker 10: for one. Robinson going in hard. Trying to take Harrelson out.
- 2:00:14Speaker 10: They're booing him. That's the way she'll run the bases.
- 2:00:18Speaker 11: Powell line first.
- 2:00:20Speaker 23: One down.
- 2:00:20Speaker 10: We're going to have a runner for Booth Powell. Chico Simone.
- 2:00:25Speaker 10: Simone on first now.
- 2:00:26Speaker 4: One out here in the ninth.
- 2:00:27Speaker 19: That's Robinson.
- 2:00:28Speaker 1: Right of the short.
- 2:00:29Speaker 16: Flying to center.
- 2:00:30Speaker 1: Flying to left.
- 2:00:31Speaker 10: I think if there's one word that can describe this
- 2:00:34Speaker 10: Met team, it's inspired. Curve is hitting the air in
- 2:00:39Speaker 10: the shallow right. Ron Swoboda waiting.
- 2:00:42Speaker 3: Two down.
- 2:00:43Speaker 10: And if they get one more out here, we're going
- 2:00:48Speaker 10: to see probably one of the doggone sights you've.
- 2:00:53Speaker 1: Ever seen in sports.
- 2:00:53Speaker 10: Well, it's up to Dave Johnson now to save the Orioles.
- 2:00:57Speaker 10: He's had one hit in three times.
- 2:01:00Speaker 1: Met fans now.
- 2:01:01Speaker 10: Over 57,000 roaring in every pitch. The 2-1 pitch. There's
- 2:01:05Speaker 10: a fly ball, and out to the left, waiting is Jones,
- 2:01:09Speaker 10: the Mets of the world champions.
- 2:01:14Speaker 1: Gary Kuzma being mobbed. Look at this scene. He was
- 2:01:19Speaker 1: also part of the very first trio ever, where three
- 2:01:22Speaker 1: guys on the same team had more than 40 home
- 2:01:25Speaker 1: runs in the same season. It was him, Darryl Evans,
- 2:01:30Speaker 1: and Hank Aaron for the Braves.
- 2:01:32Speaker 11: That was Kurt Gowdy.
- 2:01:33Speaker 1: That was Kurt Gowdy. Yeah, he was great. Kurt was great.
- 2:01:35Speaker 1: Jerry Kuzman died yesterday at the age of 83. Great
- 2:01:39Speaker 1: New York Met from 1967 to 1978. A hero on
- 2:01:43Speaker 1: that 69 team. Really the number two guy in that
- 2:01:46Speaker 1: rotation behind Tom Seaver and Met Benz. And I was one.
- 2:01:52Speaker 1: Loved Jerry Kuzman. Jerry Kuzman.
- 2:01:54Speaker 15: They were so excited in the locker room because the
- 2:01:57Speaker 15: Orioles had talked it up.
- 2:02:00Speaker 10: Oh, yeah.
- 2:02:00Speaker 15: Like, We're going to run them off the field.
- 2:02:02Speaker 1: Oh, the Mets were huge on the dog. It was huge.
- 2:02:04Speaker 15: But they did some yapping, apparently.
- 2:02:06Speaker 1: Oh, they yapped, yeah.
- 2:02:07Speaker 16: Oh, yeah.
- 2:02:08Speaker 15: One of the last plays was, I think it was
- 2:02:10Speaker 15: Frank Robinson going into second, taking.
- 2:02:12Speaker 1: Bud Harrelson out.
- 2:02:14Speaker 15: It was like the second out that happened in the inning.
- 2:02:16Speaker 1: It was nasty.
- 2:02:17Speaker 15: And the fans started booing.
- 2:02:18Speaker 1: It was nasty, yeah. It was. Now, the Mets were
- 2:02:21Speaker 1: an amazing story that year, and they got it done,
- 2:02:23Speaker 1: and Jerry Kuzmin was a major part of it. So
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: rest in peace, 83-years-old Jerry Kuzmin.
