• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Now on the Voice of New York Kates the Mark
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: sim Own Show on seven tenor well, hey, summer today,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: We've got a little summer preview. It's going to be
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: in the eighties. Today it's tax day there. Taxes have
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: to be filed by midnight tonight or you got to
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: file for an extension and pay whatever you owe. But
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of people scrambling to get that done today.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: So a lot to get to. We'll get to President
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Trump and Jesus. We'll get to Swawell, We'll get to
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Mom Donnie and his grocery stores. We'll get to Ukraine,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: We'll get to Officer Duran and a whole lot more
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: coming up. So again I keep warning all your Democrats,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: all your Trump haters. The Jesus picture Trump posted, this
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: will all be forgotten about in about two weeks. Nobody
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: will remember this. The fight with the Pope. That's terrible.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: You can't fight with the pope. Well he did this
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: before with the last pope. Nobody remembers, nobody even remembers
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: all this will be forgotten about. In fact, President Trump
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: posted another Jesus picture. This one's a little different. This
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: is Jesus with his arm around Donald Trump. He posted
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: that again today just to just to drive the radical
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: left crazy, as he said, as he called him the
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: radical left lunatics. It's not right. You shouldn't do that
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Jesus picture. You shouldn't fight with the pope. It's not right.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: But you can do it if you want. If you're
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump, if you're Howard Stern, you can do that
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: kind of stuff. And I think that's the key to
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: all of it. You got to remember President Trump. He
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: may be the greatest CEO ever in the world. He
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: may be this incredible president, he's the most powerful man
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: in the world, but he's from New York and he's
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: still got a Howard Stern's side to him. And every
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: so often he's going to do something outrageous or post
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: something outrageous, something that you know, funny, interesting, he's going
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: to act like a normal person. That was the whole idea,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Howard's by the way, in the beginning, he decided that
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: he would go on the radio and just be himself,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: just do what people really do. And that's what people
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: really do. Every so often, they curse and swear, every
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: so often, they make a dirty joke, every so often,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: they say something outrageous. And he explained it once. He said,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: and I saw this too with my own experience. You know,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: when you'd be on the radio, especially in the good
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: old days, the guy would go on the air and say,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: good morning, ladies and gentlemen. He was this formal radio person.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: As soon as the mic was closed, he's making dirty jokes.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: He's yelling and screaming, he's carrying on. And Stern was saying,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you know, that guy is more interesting than the formal,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: proper guy on the radio. I'll just do that on
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: the radio. So Trump's the same thing. When you're the president,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: you're supposed to be my fellow Americans, good evening, ladies
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: and gentlemen. He's supposed to be very formal and very presidential,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and Trump again, like Howard Stern kind of thing, deciding,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: you know what, I'm just gonna be the real meat.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: The stuff that he does that you think is outrageous.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Obama did it, Clinton did it, Biden did it. They
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: all do it. When the mic is off and the
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: cameras are away, they're cursing and screaming, making dirty jokes.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: I've seen it with my own eyes. Nobody cursed more
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: than Obama. Biden, Clinton, Hillary, and I mean the dirtiest words,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the most awful jokes, just outrageous stuff flying out of
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: their mouth. That's behind the scenes. But Trump decided there's
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: going to be absolutely no phoniness. I'm going to be
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: the real meat. Now. Is this a big change in politics?
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Is this going to be the future? Trump's a very
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: very unique guy. Very few people could ever pull off
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: what he does. They just wouldn't have the nerve, or
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: they'd be too embarrassed, or they're too proper to do it.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know when he goes I
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: mean talk now as it could be Rubio, it could
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: be jd Vance. They're not the type they would go
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: back to, very proper politician. You have to kind of
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: be born with this talent that Trump has to be outrageous,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: and it takes incredible nerves. I don't think you'll ever
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: see it again, but it's fascinating to watch as it unfolds.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: The war could be over, he's telling people, he told
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Maria Bartaroma on an interview, and he's told people privately,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the war is basically over. We may have to go
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: back to some sort of combat, but it would just
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: be like mopping up stuff. It wouldn't be a real
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: full blown comment. First of all, there's not left to
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: take out for combat. It'd be basically just clean up,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: mopping up. And then as far as that nuclear material,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: if they won't hand it over, we may have to
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: go in and collect it and pick it up. But
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: that's not that hard. And you're saying, well, that's boots
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: on the ground. Yeah, well we already did boots on
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the ground last week. The week before, we did boots
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: on the ground twice. When that plane crash, we had
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: to get the first airman and the boots on the
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: ground had to go in and rescue him. And the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: second one was tough. That was a long operation. It
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: was like a thirty six hour operation with boots on
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the ground. So we've done it twice already. Now, why
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: the confusing messaging the war's over, Well, maybe it's not over.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: The talks are done. That's it. Well, maybe we're going
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: back to talks. It's very confusing for us, and the
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: good news is it's done deliberately. It's even more confusing
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: to the enemy. They don't know how to read him.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: They don't know what to expect. Now you'll see all
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: these left wing fake news talking heads saying what happened
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: to the art of the deal? Obviously he doesn't know
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: the art of the deal. Obviously, this is he's in
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: over his head. He doesn't know what he's doing. Well,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: that always appears to be the case with him, and
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: then come back in a few weeks everything got taken
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: care of. So it's like the Jesus picture. It's like
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: the Pope fight. You watch all these talking it. This
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: is it. He's done so much damage to himself, even
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: with his own base, he has done so much to him.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Three weeks from now, nobody will rend any of this.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: It'll all be gone. I love My favorite fight though,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: is Tom Holman and the Pope. I mean the Pope.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: You're not supposed to fight with the Pope, but he
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: really was out of line. He has no business defending
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: the Iranian regime as they slaughtered people in the streets.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: They just slaughtered thirty thousand protesters in the street. There's
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: some more protesters. They're about to execute them in a
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: very brutal way. One is a woman. They're going to
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: execute her and then kill her family for protesting. They've
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: also announced they got sixteen hundred more hers that they're
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: going to execute the watch. The Pope won't have a
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: word to say about this. He'll be totally silent about this.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: But Tom Holman took on the pope. I'm the lifelong Catholic.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Baptize, first Communion confirmation. I love the Catholic Church. I
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: just wish they stick to fixing the church because there's issues.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: I know, cal I'm a member and still a politics.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, what about the Epstein files. Where's the Epstein file?
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: You know this is all you heard for weeks? Well,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: where's the Swallwhealth? I want to see these Swallowell files.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: You know, it turns out everybody you talk to in Congress.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I'm talking to former congressman, current congressman, everybody in Congress,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: they're all telling the same thing. Everybody knew how bad
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: he was. Oh, he was awful, But you wouldn't let
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: a woman anywhere near him. You couldn't let him near
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: anybody was the worst. He was awful. It was disgusted. Well,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: why did you keep it all quiet? Why'd you cover
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: it up? Forever and ever? So some of these people
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: coming forward, women who were claiming they were alleging they
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: were raped, they were drugged. They seem pretty credible. I mean,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: it's a little suspicious. It's eight years later. But at
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: the time they said they were afraid. He was a
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: big congressman, he was an attorney. They were afraid to
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: go up against him. A scary thought, that Takana congressman
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: publicly legally. So why not how come they're not afraid now? Well,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: as they keep telling you, somebody's behind this, not that
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: it's not all true, but somebody put this all together,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: like the twenty seven accusers, all at once, unleashed all
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: at once. This was packaged and timed. Who could it be? Well,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: it takes a lot of money. You know, there's a
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: billionaire running against him in California who wants him out.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Could be that, could be other big Democratic donors that
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: want him out. You know, if you got a big,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: powerful billionaire, how do you do this? Well, these women
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: are so afraid to come forward, and this has been
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: done before. You put a ton of money towards their case.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: You get them the best lawyers in the world, You
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: get them everything they need, lawyers, public relations people, bodyguards,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: whatever they want. And then they suddenly come forward and
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: some of these victims, was kind of moving.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: While he was choking me. I lost consciousness and I
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: thought I died. I did not consent to any sexual activity,
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: although I did not undergo a rape kit at the time.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: I disclosed the assault to the people closest to me.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, uh uh, you know what was that? The who's
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the woman that went the nut job that went after Trump?
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Egene Caroll? And nobody bought that story because she's always
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: been a publicity stunt, hustler, type of publicity hound type
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: of a woman. And she couldn't tell you what year
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: or she couldn't give any details. These women, it's different.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: These seem more credible.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: When I arrived at his hotel room, I was already
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: incapacitated and I couldn't move. My arms are my body.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: He raped me and he choked me, and while he
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: was choking me, I lost consciousness.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: No, he's facing criminal charges. There's one thing to be
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: expelled from Congress. It's one thing to end your political career.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: But he's facing criminal charges here in Manhattan, and imagine
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: there'll be criminal charges in other places. And if all
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: of this is true, he's got serious, serious prison time coming.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Whenever you hear the it's one thing that you know
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: sexual harassment. When you hear the word raped, when you
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: hear the word drugged, when you hear the word choked,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: you're in real, real trouble.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: My delay in taking action against Eric was driven by fear,
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: not doubt, fear of his political power, his background as
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: an attorney, and his family law enforcement ties.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now he's the Epstein, the new Epstein of the
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Democratic Party. Because it seems everybody seemed to know about it.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: All these people in Congress, they're all being asked about it.
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: It's known that widely in DC that he is I
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: don't even think Womanizer covers it.
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: Sexually harasses women.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: They all knew about they all, And I'm being told
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: that by all kinds of people in Congress, and they
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: all knew it all.
• 10:52
  Speaker 7: Slowly they became more and more explicit, asking me what
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: I was wearing. Than one night he was on a
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: trip and he was laying in his hotel room bed,
• 11:04
  Speaker 7: and then he sent me a photo of his penis.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Here you go, let me explain something to you men
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: out there. See the problem is, you get a lot
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: of these guys, they spend their whole life in an office,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: their whole life in a job doing something. They don't
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: know how to flirt with a woman. They don't know
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: how to do it. Do not send a picture of
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: your penis. This appeals to no woman. If they all think,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: whoa when she sees this, WHOA is she going to get?
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: They they don't want to see that. It's the absolute
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: opposite effect of what you think. Do you want to
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: get a woman excited, Send her a picture of you
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: with a dog, holding your little puppy. That and then
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: they like you, send a picture of you with a
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: little child or something. Send send a picture of you
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: cooking dinner. That's more, They do not want to see
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: your penis. It doesn't work. Now, if a woman were
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: to send a guy a picture of her body parts,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: the guy would immediately be drooling and madly in love.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: It doesn't work the opposite way. You have to really said,
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: now Pelosi knew Pelosi. She won't tell you that she
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: was asked about it.
• 12:07
  Speaker 8: Some Republicans and others are saying that Democrats turned kind
• 12:10
  Speaker 8: of a blind eye, that they knew.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: What he was up.
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: Now, that is absolutely positive.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: It's true that they may say that, but it is
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: absolutely and you have no idea, none whatsoever.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: No idea none. What's if I knew about it? She
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: knew about it. So but he's the new Epstein. He's
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: the new Epstein. Hey, Hakeem Jeffries. If you read the
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Epstein files, a lot of Hakeem Jeffries in those Epstein files.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: He was begging Epstein to come on board as a donor.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: He was begging Epstein to come to a dinner. He
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: was all over Epps. Now, in his defense, Epstein was
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: a big political donor and he wrote big checks to
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: campaigns and policy. Once you donate to any big campaign,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: all the other campaigns by the mailing lists of the donors.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Gave a ton of money to Chuck Schumer running for Senate,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: all the other Democrats by the donor list, so they'll
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: see you. You give a lot of money to Schumer,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: I'll get him. So if you're Hakeem Jeffries, you start
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: bombarding the guy with emails asking for donations. And if
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: you're not getting a donation, well then you invite them
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: to dinner. You offer them all kinds of things. So
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: that's what Jeffries did. A lot of people do it.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Charities do it too. You know they get a whole
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: the charities. If you're on a big, big charity and
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: the other charities are having their gala dinner, you go
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: to the gala dinner to steal the program the book
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: because it lists all the donors and thanks all the donors.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: You steal that book and then you contact all those donors.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: But Epstein was asked about soliciting Jeffreys was asked about
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: soliciting Epstein all the time.
• 13:47
  Speaker 9: Was that a serious question or a serious statement from
• 13:52
  Speaker 9: malignant clown James Comer that I had Jeffrey Epstein over
• 13:56
  Speaker 9: for dinner, that I accepted money from jeff What's extraordinary
• 14:01
  Speaker 9: to me about the clown show on the other side
• 14:04
  Speaker 9: of the aisle is that they live with impunity.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's not true. He did not have him over
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: dinner for dinner, but he did beg him to come
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: over to dinner. He did not take money from him.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: But if you'll check the files, about four hundred times
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: he wrote them begging him for money. So it's not true,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: but it's slightly. It's true in spirit, not to the letter, though. Hey,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: we'll get to mom Donnie coming up his grocery stores.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Apparently this is going to be the biggest fiasco ever
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: in history, the first grocery store. He's going to spend
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: thirty million to put it together. Grocery store owners tell
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: me normal costs would be one to two million, and
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: that's with paying rent. This guy's got free space of
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the owns and he's still going to pay thirty million.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: If you gave that to a real grocery store chain,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: they could open fifteen locations with thirty million. So right there,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: he's wasting all the money in the world. Selection will
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: be horrible. Uh Mom, Donnie is kind of admitting now
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: that the discount will only be on a handful of items,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: not on everything else. They're going to be the dirtiest,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: filthiest locations you've ever seen. Anyway, we'll get back. We'll
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: get to that coming up. We got a lot to
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: talk about. Uh, hey, we'll take some calls next. Eight
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: Wow, you're listening to the Mark Simone show.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Wor Hey, let's take some calls. Eight hundred three to
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: two to one zero seven ten is the number. Let's
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: go to Jacob in Denver, Colorado, Jacob, how you doing.
• 15:48
  Speaker 10: Hi.
• 15:49
  Speaker 11: So there was a scene in the latest Nuremberg movie
• 15:52
  Speaker 11: called did you just Blackmail the Pope? And this is
• 15:55
  Speaker 11: where he accused the pope but starting something excuse me
• 15:58
  Speaker 11: nineteen three three with eight al five, which is a
• 16:01
  Speaker 11: true story. You would think that after this the popes
• 16:04
  Speaker 11: would stay out a politics.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Well they don't. There's been a number of times through
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: the years. You sound a little out of breath. You're
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: in Denver, right, there's no air up there, right.
• 16:14
  Speaker 11: Yes, Actually, I'm going to log onto my My daughter's
• 16:18
  Speaker 11: getting married in Isel, so I'm gonna be good on
• 16:21
  Speaker 11: the the dream.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Very good, excellent, Well, congratulations, thanks for colling. Let's go
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing. Good morning, Mark, Yes, Mike.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: Just two quick things. One, leave it to President Trump
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: to finally bring peace between the left and the Catholic
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: Church and christ in general. Another another feather at his cap.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: But the thing, the Swawall case is interesting. It's a
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: real to me, it's a real classic mobster thing. You know,
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: cloy they had something on him and they said to them, Okay,
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: this is what we have on you. Now you're going
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: to do out dirty work for you. You're going to be
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: our henchman. You're going to go after Trump. You know, Twison,
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: you're gonna bring up you know, you're going to lead
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: the charge on the Russia collusion thing and all of
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: that stuff. And then you know, we'll let you stay
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: in office until we're done with you. And then they
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: took him into a back alley and left them in
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: a garbage bin.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, very good, Yeah, no, I agree, excellent. Yeah, he
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: was very useful till he started running for governor California,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: got some traction, and he became so high in the
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: polls it's hard to explain. They have this what they
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: call a jungle primary in California, Republicans, Democrats all in
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the same primary. But he rose up at his numbers
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: were high enough that it was screwing them up and
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: that it would have helped the Republicans in that primary.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: It was dividing up the Democratic vote. So they had
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: to get him out of there. And apparently wouldn't listen.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: So they got him out of there. Let's go to
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: Sarah in Manhattan. Sarah, how you doing, Hi, Mark, how.
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: Are you good?
• 17:55
  Speaker 12: But I just don't know. You mentioned Hillary wanting to
• 17:58
  Speaker 12: run yesterday, and she was dismissive about Monica Lewinsky and
• 18:02
  Speaker 12: whether Bill should have resigned. How does she think she's
• 18:05
  Speaker 12: going to run with the me too movement, the Epstein files,
• 18:09
  Speaker 12: now the Swallowell files. I don't know planet she's on. Really,
• 18:14
  Speaker 12: I can't imagine any woman supporting her.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, she was always the most delusional woman in
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the world. Great points, Sarah, thanks for calling. She was
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: always totally delusional. Yeah, she's doing she We think she's
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: running again. Yesterday she ran around doing a million interviews.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: When Monica Lewinsky came up, it was it was, Oh,
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: that's nothing, Oh that's okay, It was nothing. Meantime, she
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: and Bill fought over that so much. Remember was it
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: on the air or off the air? Here I had
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: some of their Secret Service here, the detail that protected
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Bill during his time in the White House, and they
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: were telling me that it got so bad between the
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Clintons in private that she would hit him. She once
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: threw a lamp at him. And in the Secret Service,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: when you're protecting a president, you're not allowed to let
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: anybody hurt him or hit him. So they didn't know
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: what to do. This is his own wife hitting him
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: in private. So they were telling us they had to
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: go to the head of the Secret Service. They had
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: to have a meeting to decide what to do if
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: when she went after him physically, if it got brutal,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: what would they do? It's his wife, do they stop her?
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: So there was a big meeting, head of the Secret Service, everybody,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: and if they decided yes, you would have to restrain her.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: You would have to grab the first lady and pull
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: her away. You can't let her beat up the president,
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: which apparently she tried to do a number of times.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Anthony and Staten Island. Anthony, how you doing?
• 19:44
  Speaker 10: Okay? Mark, could you clarify? Is it thirty million dollars
• 19:50
  Speaker 10: for one three grocery books or is it thirty million
• 19:55
  Speaker 10: right out over the burg?
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: No, it's uh. He's talking about he's talking about five
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: grocery stores. And he originally said it would cost seventy
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: million dollars for the five grocery stores, one in each borrow.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: And now it turns out the first one will cost
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: thirty million, So that means that the total cost would
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: be one hundred and fifty million, not the seventy like
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: he said. So he's talking about thirty million for one
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: grocery store. And this is the easiest one because he
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: owns the space. It's free space. Now when he says
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: thirty million, you know it's the government. So by the
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: time they get it done, it'll be fifty eight million.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: And it makes no sense at all. Every grocery store
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: owner told me that you could open a grocery store
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: for a million if you wanted to really go all out.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Two million mean to equip it, put everything in. So
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: where's the thirty million going? Obviously they'd hand out contracts.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: This is like when the Deblasios tried that Operation Thrive
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: or whatever the hell that was a billion dollars was spent.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Nobody knows where the hell it went go to Rich
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Myrtle Beach, Rich, how you doing?
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: Hey?
• 21:03
  Speaker 13: Thanks Mark. You know they asked Pelosi if you knew
• 21:05
  Speaker 13: anything about it, and you can't tell she's lying because
• 21:07
  Speaker 13: her face doesn't move anymore. You're looking at her, you know.
• 21:11
  Speaker 13: You know if you listen to the statement the woman
• 21:13
  Speaker 13: made about swallow you. So she said she didn't come
• 21:16
  Speaker 13: forward for eight years because first she was going to
• 21:18
  Speaker 13: run for city council in La Then he was going
• 21:20
  Speaker 13: to help her with a software company, and I guess
• 21:23
  Speaker 13: all the stuff fell through, so now they don't need
• 21:25
  Speaker 13: him anymore. But Na, she'll come forward after eight years
• 21:28
  Speaker 13: because I guess she didn't get what she wanted. You know,
• 21:30
  Speaker 13: these women they take eight years, nine years. Look at
• 21:32
  Speaker 13: the Kavanough one, the one that went after Trump. I
• 21:34
  Speaker 13: don't remember the day of the year and where we were,
• 21:36
  Speaker 13: but yeah, he assaulted me. If these women can't come
• 21:39
  Speaker 13: forward immediately or within your six months or a year,
• 21:42
  Speaker 13: you can't believe it these women what they're telling you anymore.
• 21:45
  Speaker 13: And I want to ask you want to.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Say, Sometimes sometimes that's the case. But sometimes, and we've
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: seen this before with Reid Hoffman, with other billionaires. Sometimes
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: a billionaire finds them and says, I will hire you
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: the five finest attorneys in the world. I'll hire you
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: an army of pr people, bodyguard, and then they'll come forward.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: Sometimes that's what it is.
• 22:04
  Speaker 13: But if she wanted to want the City Council of
• 22:06
  Speaker 13: la she wanted certain things, I guess she didn't get them. Well,
• 22:09
  Speaker 13: she lost the election. Now she wants to go after himself.
• 22:12
  Speaker 13: Let me ask you, have you seen these baby Trump memes?
• 22:15
  Speaker 13: These little videos, these baby Trump things on Facebook. Of
• 22:17
  Speaker 13: course they're sterical. I just found him the other day.
• 22:20
  Speaker 13: I mean, they got this guy down to a t
• 22:22
  Speaker 13: and the Kamala Harris. It's hysterical. People should go look
• 22:24
  Speaker 13: for these. They're biting up my day every day.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: Ye yeah, they're all over Twitter, they're all over Facebook.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: They're great. Hey, when we come back, we'll talk to
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Roger Friedman, the great entertainment reporter. I don't know that
• 22:34

• 22:39

• 22:41
  Speaker 1: coming up on seven to ten wor.

• 23:06
  Speaker 6: I'm great? How are you this morning?
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Very good? Hey? Tell us about Billy Crystal makes a
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: big announcement yesterday new Broadway show.
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: I know, well, he was on Stephen Colbert last night, and.
• 23:20
  Speaker 8: He came to say goodbye to Stephen Colbert because he's
• 23:22
  Speaker 8: going off the air next month. And the Colbert shows
• 23:25
  Speaker 8: from the Ed Sullivan Theater where Billy got his start
• 23:29
  Speaker 8: on Ed Sullivan.
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: So he came.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: He was on it Sullivan.
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: I guess he was at the very end of the
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: Ed Sullivan Show.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he must have been so young.
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: He was pretty young.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: So anyway, he came back.
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: He came back to do a little stick to celebrate
• 23:47
  Speaker 8: the fiftieth, not the fiftieth, his anniversary of having been
• 23:52
  Speaker 8: there first and now to be last. And then he
• 23:56
  Speaker 8: announced that he's doing a Broadway show this fall. It's
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: a one man show. You know, he's done so many
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: great one man shows, like seven hundred Sundays, and this
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: one's called eight sixty and it's about everything that happened
• 24:11
  Speaker 8: to him in La the last couple of years, with
• 24:13
  Speaker 8: the fires and all the rest of it.
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: So it'll be.
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: For twelve weeks this fall. You know, it'll be funny.
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: In fact, the minute the tickets go on sale, which
• 24:25
  Speaker 8: I think is April twenty eighth, they'll sell out completely,
• 24:28
  Speaker 8: like in the first hour.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Because you know, we love him. It's a real New Yorker.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: When they say limited run twelve weeks, that's so in
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: case it doesn't work, they can close and hopefully it
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: takes off, and then they extend it, right, so it
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: could run for.
• 24:43
  Speaker 8: Well, in his case, it's not gonna you know, it's
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: not going to not take off.
• 24:47
  Speaker 6: It's going to be it'll be sold out immediately.
• 24:50
  Speaker 8: So the question is, well he stayed for any time
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: after that, and he may take a break and then
• 24:56
  Speaker 8: come back, because that's exhausting, you know, Billy Crystal not
• 25:00
  Speaker 8: twenty five anymore either, am I He did.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Seven hundred Sundays for a long time, right.
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: He did.
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: He did, so hopefully he'll do it, and he seems
• 25:12
  Speaker 8: pretty into it.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I love that. The best was Larry David, who said
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: that's a dream to be on Broadway. Then he does
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: it show after about six weeks of the same lines
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: every night, he can't wait to get the hell out
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: of there.
• 25:24
  Speaker 8: Unfortunately, Larry David's show was a play and it was
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: no good so and he's not I don't think he
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: really likes stand up anymore because of Curb your enthusiasm.
• 25:34
  Speaker 6: He's so used to being in the show.
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: But anyway, Yes, a lot of people find Broadway grueling.
• 25:41
  Speaker 8: You know, when they get there, they think it'll be
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: a lot of fun. And this is why you see
• 25:45
  Speaker 8: a lot of Hollywood stars come into plays, especially around
• 25:47
  Speaker 8: Tony time, and the play is just for a two
• 25:50
  Speaker 8: month run or a three month run, and that's it.
• 25:53
  Speaker 8: We have a lot of that going on right now.
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: But Billy Crystal will be great tonight on Broadway.
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: By the way, I'm going.
• 26:01
  Speaker 8: To see Adrian Brody uh in The Fear of Thirteen
• 26:05
  Speaker 8: and he has, you know, won the Oscar this year,
• 26:07
  Speaker 8: just recently, and he has two Oscars for Best Actor and.
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: It's going to be really exciting.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: Now. There are some people that just go to Broadway
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: all the time. They got every playbill, they just can't
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: wait for the next brother they do. And there are
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: other people that can't sit through those things for a
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: couple of hours.
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, some of them are hard to They're hard to
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: sit there if they're bad.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: I used to try to go to every single thing,
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: but of course it's hard to do anymore. And this
• 26:38
  Speaker 8: has been a busy season right now, but it's a
• 26:42
  Speaker 8: good season. So and I told you last week there's
• 26:46
  Speaker 8: a great play that's just opened called Becky Shaw.
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: There's a lot of terrific stuff going on.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: So hey, it opened. That's exciting. Yeah, that'll be good
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Sunday night. What the show that opened the Titanic?
• 27:00
  Speaker 8: Titanic? Yeah, I saw this off Broadway. It's been around
• 27:05
  Speaker 8: for a while. It's like a parody of Titanic. It's
• 27:09
  Speaker 8: kind of wild. It's very broad Uh, it's a it's
• 27:12
  Speaker 8: a parody of the Titanic movie and they have the
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: main character is Selene Dion, So they have an actress
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: who plays Selene Dion and they sing you know that
• 27:23
  Speaker 8: song my Heart goes on from the show from the movie,
• 27:26
  Speaker 8: and they carry very campy. It's it's not a it's
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: not a like a you know, a new musical. It's
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: a it's like a forever Broadway kind of thing.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: It's a great idea comedy version of Titanic. Yeah.
• 27:42
  Speaker 8: I mean, especially if you love Titanic or you love
• 27:44
  Speaker 8: Selene de Odd, It's definitely the thing to see.
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: It's definitely the thing to say.
• 27:50
  Speaker 8: Aren't you excited? Aren't you excited? About Madonna? She announced
• 27:54
  Speaker 8: the new album this morning.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: I got to be honest, I'm not that thrilled. Come on,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: it's Madonna. It's on the it's almost sixty eight. Yeah,
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: it's on the Nursing Home label. It's Madonna. Let me
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: ask you a question, who the hell's going to play it?
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Where's it going to get played?
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: It's not gonna get played, well, get played in dance.
• 28:13
  Speaker 8: It's a dance album. It's a sequel to her two
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: thousand and five album Confessions on a Dance Floor, and
• 28:20
  Speaker 8: it's going to be, you know, for clubs. It's going
• 28:22
  Speaker 8: to be for dance clubs. And we'll see if there's
• 28:25
  Speaker 8: a song for the radio. It's very hard for older
• 28:29
  Speaker 8: or any older artists, not just Madonna, to get played
• 28:32
  Speaker 8: on the radio.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: You know Madonna, But that's forty years ago. If I
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: went down to Z one hundred and I said I
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: got the new Madonna album, They're all going to go, who.
• 28:42
  Speaker 14: I do?
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: That's a problem.
• 28:44
  Speaker 8: Well, the her one, her one compromise will be that
• 28:48
  Speaker 8: I think that she's releasing a single with Sabrina Carpenter,
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: who is the number one you know Madonna like kid
• 28:56
  Speaker 8: of this generation? Yeah and all there's she's a lot cleaner,
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: but apparently she's got to do it.
• 29:04
  Speaker 6: Coming with Sabrina Carpenter and we may see it.
• 29:08
  Speaker 8: Are the people out of Coachella in California may hear
• 29:11
  Speaker 8: it this weekend because Sabrina Carpenter is doing her second show,
• 29:15
  Speaker 8: and I guess Madonna is rumored to be showing up
• 29:18
  Speaker 8: with her and doing the song, so we'll hear what
• 29:21
  Speaker 8: it is.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: She thinks they're going to play this in clubs. They
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: wouldn't know who the hell she is in these clubs.
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: Oh, they know who she is in clubs.
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: Guarantee you. If Madonna went to a club, the twenty
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: eight year old bouncer is not going to know who
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: she is.
• 29:32
  Speaker 6: Well, I don't know. That's that's her world.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Those songs were forty years ago, literally.
• 29:39
  Speaker 8: I know, I know, but that's her world. That's her world.
• 29:43
  Speaker 8: And we're more excited about earth Wind than Fire coming,
• 29:46
  Speaker 8: so that.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: I love them. You know, I knew them. Fire was
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: a friend of mine.
• 29:51
  Speaker 8: I'm kidding, what's that Fire was a friend of yours?
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: Not Earth No, I didn't know her whend I met
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: one that was the.
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: Guy who had your job before.
• 30:06

  Speaker 1: You that is huge. That's going to be huge. The
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: only problem I talked to you get all excited earth

  Speaker 1: Wind and Fires come on and then these guys come

  Speaker 1: out with walkers and canes and you realized.
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: This is wow. They're they're in very good shape.
• 30:37
  Speaker 8: And you know, I've seen earth Wind and Fire perform
• 30:40
  Speaker 8: a few times at like, you know, various functions. I
• 30:42
  Speaker 8: haven't seen them in a full concert in a while,
• 30:45
  Speaker 8: but they're they're terrific. And I had a long talk
• 30:48
  Speaker 8: with Verdin White as the leader of the group, the
• 30:51
  Speaker 8: guy with the tall and skinny, guy with the long hair,
• 30:55
  Speaker 8: and he's amazing. He's an amazing guitarist and he's an
• 31:00
  Speaker 8: amazing singer. And they've never been more revved up. In fact,
• 31:05
  Speaker 8: they're going on tour with Lionel Richie. So then after
• 31:09
  Speaker 8: they do the speaking show, then they do a Madison
• 31:11
  Speaker 8: Square Garden show I think in July, so they're they're
• 31:15
  Speaker 8: going to be all over the place and they're hotter
• 31:17
  Speaker 8: than ever.
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: Everyone loves that song.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: September, Oh, they had a great songs they really Yeah, Hey, well,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: got in a minute left. Tell me about there's a
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: big new documentary on Lauren Michaels. What's the deal with that?
• 31:31
  Speaker 8: Oh, it's great. It's opening on Friday. I wrote about
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: it on Showbiz for on One the other day. They
• 31:38
  Speaker 8: had a big, great premiere at Alice Tully Hall last
• 31:42
  Speaker 8: week and this is the first time that Laurene Michaels
• 31:48
  Speaker 8: in fifty years really has talked about anything. He never
• 31:53
  Speaker 8: gives interviews and he didn't want to do this one either,
• 31:56
  Speaker 8: but he was convinced finally after two years of prodding,
• 31:59
  Speaker 8: because they had interviewed everybody else from Saturday Night Live.
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: So then finally he had to give in.
• 32:03
  Speaker 8: And what's interesting about it is, you know, he's seventy
• 32:06
  Speaker 8: nine and he's been doing the show for you know,
• 32:08
  Speaker 8: fifty one years, and he's not going to retire. He's
• 32:12
  Speaker 8: going to stay there till he can't do it anymore.
• 32:15
  Speaker 8: And he's in good shape, knock Wood, and he loves
• 32:18
  Speaker 8: the show, and you know, he created it, and he's
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: a little concerned actually that there won't be a show
• 32:24
  Speaker 8: once he's gone. We thought that maybe he was going
• 32:27
  Speaker 8: to turn over the reins to someone like Seth Myers
• 32:30
  Speaker 8: or Tina Fey.
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: But no, no.
• 32:34
  Speaker 8: In fact, I think when he said that in the
• 32:36
  Speaker 8: film and then he said it to me again at
• 32:38
  Speaker 8: dinner after the screening, I think, you know, people like
• 32:43
  Speaker 8: Seth and Tina and Colin Joe just all went what
• 32:46
  Speaker 8: because they all thought.
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: Maybe they would get it. And now he's like, nope,
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: I'm not leaving.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now. It'll go off the year.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you why. Same reason as Colbert Network TV
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: viewership is way down. It's cheaper to run an old
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: game show there or sell the time. They'll they'll just
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: put a movie on her.
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: I don't run reruns of it.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well problem is that's it's a little topical, but
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: you can edit your way around that.
• 33:11
  Speaker 8: But they run reruns now at ten o'clock on Saturday. Yeah,
• 33:15
  Speaker 8: it's a recent but anyway, it's not going anywhere for
• 33:19
  Speaker 8: the moment. I think he'll you know, if he's seventy nine,
• 33:22
  Speaker 8: I think he'll probably from looking at him, he looks
• 33:24
  Speaker 8: like he's in great shape.
• 33:25
  Speaker 6: Not quid. It'll go another five years, So he's not
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: going anywhere.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, Roger Freeman, great stuff, everybody read his website.

  Speaker 1: for six months, but you got to pay whatever you

  Speaker 1: of the big beautiful bill that got passed, So for
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: most people, you'll pay less taxes this year than last year.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: Almost everybody will save at least three hundred dollars on
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: their taxes this year, but many will save up to
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: three thousand dollars on their taxes this year. I think
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: the average was like a fifteen hundred and two thousand
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: dollars less in taxes thanks to the Big Beautiful Bill.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: People will start to notice that. Now will they connect

• 35:40
  Speaker 1: day of the week. Today could hit ninety degrees today. Hey,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: we're talking about Madonna new album. People. I'm getting all
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: kinds of emails. People got mad you're making me feel
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: old that I'm just being honest with you. If you
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: went to all the top four these stations today, all
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: those DJs, they're in their twenties or thirty. They don't
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: know who Madonna is. That was forty years ago. I
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: hate to break it to you. It was forty years
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: ago Madonna was speaking. And back then, if you wanted
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: to listen to Madonna on the radio, where would you
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: have listened to her forty years ago? I'm trying to think. No,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: not WABC, that was already talked by then. You would
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: have had to listen to w NBC. You would have
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: listened to Howard Stern in the afternoon playing Madonna. Now
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: K to you, I don't know that was more Yeah, okay,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: WKT you would have been around. I mean it's here now,
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: but this was the old wk T you ninety nine
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: XT you could have listened to it there, that's about it.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Howard Stern was on in the afternoon WNBC playing Madonna
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: all the time. Or you could have gone to those
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: clubs xenon Oh Bar, remember all those clubs, the Pull.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: You would have heard Madonna. But trying to make a comebacks.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: But it's a long time ago. That was the she
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: really took off, like eighty four eighty five. That's where
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: she was like really a superstar all of a sudden.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: A few years before that she had been the she
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: worked in the coat room at the Russian Tea room.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: Right over there, she worked in the coat room. And
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: before that she worked at the bottom line in the
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: coat room, checking your coat. So hey, another big anniversary today.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: It was ten years ago today that Apple announced the
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: new iPhone. This would have been twenty sixteen. The new
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: iPhone would have no plug for the headphones. Do you
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: remember there was the lightning plug where you'd plug in
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: the power, and next to it was that little round
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: hole where you'd plug in your earphones, your headphones. Your
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: earphones or headphones of course, had a cord and you'd
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: plug it into the phone. And Apple announced the new
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: iPhone would not have any earphone plug, headphone plug, no
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: jack for the headphones. This was the most shocking thing
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: anybody ever heard of. All hell broke loose. Nobody could
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: figure that out. How the hell were you supposed to
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: plug in your headphones? What were you going to do
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: without headphones that could plug in? Everybody predicted it was
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: the end of the iPhone. People would now have to
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: switch to an Android phone. Apple had this all figured out.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: They were thinking way ahead, they were thinking long term,
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: very quietly. They had already bought Beats, the headphone company.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: They had already figured out the air pods, the Bluetooth
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: air pods, and they sounded pretty good. And it was
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: rough the first year. A lot of people didn't like this,
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: and they were going to switch over to the Android
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: and Samsung Galaxy Android. They thought, this is the best
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: thing that's ever happened. Apple just committed suicide. Well, Apple
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: had it all figured out, and within a no time
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: at all, selling those AirPods became a huge business. Like
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: the first couple of years that did twenty billion. By
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: year four they sold thirty billion in AirPods. It's now
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: a forty to fifty billion dollar a year business. It's
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: a bigger business than Spotify or any of those kind
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: of things. And it's an enormous, enormous business. And Samsung
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: the Galaxy to Android, they didn't know what the hell
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: hit him. Apple had just thought this through, had chess
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: gamed this out like twenty moves, and it was a
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: brilliant move. You know they sell those AirPods. Every year
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: is a new AirPod Pro two, AirPod Pro three. You know,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: they saw something like seventy five billion of those a
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: year all over the world. Absolutely amazing. So swallwell, he's
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: out of politics, he's out of Congress, and he's out
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: of the California governor's race. There's a lot of candidates.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: We like Steve Hilton, he's pretty smart. There's another Republican
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: or two in there that are pretty good. A lot
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: of Democrats in that race. There's talk of Kamala Harris
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: jumping into that governor's race. The guy that everybody thinks
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: is the Democrat that's he's not a good candidate. He's
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: a terrible candidate, but they thought had a good shot.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: Is Tom Steyer, the billionaire. Remember he ran for president
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. He's a multi billionaire and he's spent
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: a fortune on TV commercials. Back in twenty twenty, if
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: you were watching Network TV, all you saw with Tom
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: Stier in the sweater in his living room telling you
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: about climate change. That's the main problem with him. He's
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: like a one issue guy, climate change, and even on
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: that he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: But there he was looking into the camera talking about
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: climate change, and he's spent a fortune of our zillions
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: of commercials on and it did him no good. He
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: went absolutely sorry about that, absolutely nowhere in the race. Now,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: the thing is, he's a bad talker, he's a boring guy.
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: He's uncomfortable to watch. You go to sleep listening to him.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: But those commercials, they put him in his living room
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: by the fireplace with a sweater on. So if he
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: sounded dull, will it fit the environment? Now the problem
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: is if you get him out on a campaign stage
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: in a rally, Oh does he sound awful? He really
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: sounds dull. He's got no personality, and he's got another problem.
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: Back in twenty twenty, in that campaign, he was at
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: something where there was a bunch of rappers and hip
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: hop guys and they were performing and they were dancing,
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: and he got up and danced with them. And here
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: was this awkward, old white guy trying to dance with them.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: He didn't know what the hell he was doing. It
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: was so cringey. It was the worst thing in the world.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: Where those videos have resurfaced and the last two days
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: they've gone viral, and they're really hurting him, hurting him
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: he is so awkward and uncomfortable to what and you
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: see him dancing, it's just it's it's not even funny,
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: it's just you just cringe looking at this video. So
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: the problem is h he's got no shot at all.
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: And just a warning to everybody out there, don't dance.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: If you have a great dancer, good go dance. But
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: if you don't know what you're doing. Remember the Seinfeld
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: episode where Elaine becomes the new president of the company
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: and everybody respects her, fears her. Then at the Christmas
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: party she dances. She's the most awful dancer, and then
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: they all just laugh when they see her. She's laughed
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: at all the time. I remember once you know, I
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: knew JFK. Junior when he came into a room. It
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: was unbelievable the charisma he projected. He was the handsomest,
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: the way he moved like an athlete, he was unbelievable,
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: just magnetic. You couldn't take your eyes off. But there
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: was one party where there was dancing. He got on
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: the dance floor and started dancing. We were stunned. He
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: was the worst dancer. You've ever seen. It was a
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: lane in Seinfeld. It was so klutzy and awkward that
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: suddenly the handsomest guy that ever lived was ridiculous looking.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: He was just a silly looking guy, and the rest
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: of the party nobody could look at him. So if
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: you don't know what you're doing, do not dance at
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: a party, at a wedding, don't ever ever do it. Hey,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: this is fascinating. In the Ukraine, the war continues. Now.
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: You know, when we go to war in Iran, everybody
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: is saying, how long is it gonna take? Why it's
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: been three weeks? What the hell's takets on Ukraine? It's
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: like year twelve. Nobody says a word. It's fine. The
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Iran war. We've spent whatever, we spent twenty eight billion dollars.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: People are yelling how much money? This is ridiculous. What
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: I waste the money? Twenty eight million the Ukraine war,
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: that's four hundred and fifty million already. Nobody blinks, And
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: it's fascinating. They were so afraid of Iran military. Iran, well,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: they folded in like two hours. In their first two hours,
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: we wiped out everything they had. And we were also
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: so afraid of Russia superpower. You know, they used to
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: do those Russian military parades with the tanks and the
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: soldiers in those parades of Russian military. Oh, it looks
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: so intimidating. Then they go to war little Ukraine and
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: they can't get anything done. It's four or five years later.
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: Five years later, they still haven't made half a mile
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: of progress yet said nothing. And now here's the interesting thing. Ukraine,
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: little tiny Ukraine, has been able to hold off what
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: was supposed to be a superpower Russia for all these years.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: Now these Ukrainians are getting very sophisticated. Yesterday there was
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: a battle they won with robots. They sent some robots
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: into combat against Russian soldiers and they were looking to
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: take some territory and they did. Ukraine sent in these
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: robots and they beat the Russian soldiers, took the territory robots.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: Obviously no injuries because it was just robots. No humans
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: had to go anywhere near this battle. So this is
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: the future, apparently, and it was being tested out, and
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: they were very successful with those robots. You may see
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: that in the future, you know, in the good old days, Yeah,
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: pilots could get shot down all the time because their
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: planes had to go in fly low. We don't do
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: that anymore. Drones do it all. If you lose the drone,
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: nobody's hurt, no injuries, no casualties. It's all drones. So
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: that's in the air. You're going to see this on
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: the ground. Now, these robots are going to take over combat. Hey,
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: the police officer, Eric Duran, this is this tragic case.
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: He's on duty. They're trying to stop this crazy drug dealer.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: He says, he jumps on a motorcycle to flee, and
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: he's about to run his motorcycle into a bunch of cops.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: So Eric Duran thinks fast. There's a big cooler. He
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: picks it up and throws it at the guy to
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: knock him off the motorcycle. But he knocked him off
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: and the guy went sideway. He hit a tree, the
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: motorcycle hit him, and the guy ended up being dead.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Terrible accident. And maybe you shouldn't have thrown the cooler.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: But it's a split second decision a cop has to make.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: It's understandable. The gets before a crazy judge in the Bronx.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: This crazy left wing couck of a judge convicts him
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: instantly and then sentences him to three to nine years
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: in jail. Nine years in jail. This is a cop.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: It was it was an accident. Nine years in jail.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: This kuck of a left wing judge two seconds ago
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: had a case, similar case, same thing. Well, actually was
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: much worse. It was much worse. This kid beat a
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: homeless man to death and killed him. Beat him to
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: death and killed him. And the kid was a gang member,
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: beat a homeless guy to death and killed him. This
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: same judge gave the kid like three months. What a difference.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: It's obviously a left wing cock of a judge. It's
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: become I'm a big issue. Bruce Blakeman's running for governor.
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: He most likely will get elected governor. He has said
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: he will pardon this cop day, one hour, one minute,
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: one soon, one minute after taking office. Will pardon this guy.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: This Eric Duran, this officer. Now, he's from an immigrant family.
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: Mother's an immigrants. She's crying yesterday saying they came to
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: America for a new life and the American dream turned
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: out to be a nightmare for her. Last night at
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: the Islanders game, they had a big fundraiser for this cop.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: He's got to appeal. The case needs a legal defense.
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: Arthur Idella is a good attorney. He's jumped in to
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: be the attorney. Alan Dershowitz, the brilliant, probably the best
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: appellate lawyer in America, has volunteered to help. But you
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: need money, and they had a fundraiser last night Islanders
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: game fans donating like crazy. If you want to donate yourself,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: go just google Eric Duran fundraiser. I'm sure it'll come
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: up to ran fundraiser. So a crazy mom Donnie with
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: his grocery store that he hasn't has a clue how
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: to do it. First of all, there's almost no profit
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: in grocery stores. You could make a profit out in
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: the suburbs. You can make as even there it's like
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: a four or five percent profit. As soon as you
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: operate a grocery store in Manhattan, you cost go crazy.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: First of all, you have to have the food delivered
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: to your grocery store from the food company. And if
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: it's in the suburbs, it costs this much. If it's
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: in the middle of Manhattan or New York City, the
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: price goes way up to get the food. Why because
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: they have to send the trucks into Manhattan. They can't
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: park anywhere. Most of the time. They're gonna have to
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: double park, and when they do, they're going to get
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: a two hundred dollars ticket on the truck. And you know,
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: like a lot of these places where you buy an
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: appliance or something, it's free delivery, except Manhattan. Reason is
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: they're going to get ticketed like crazy. You can't part
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: you know, you've got a big truck delivering stuff. It's tough.
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: Now what these grocery stores have to do. If you're
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: a big supermarket, you got trucks around the store all
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: day and night. They're always dropping off, you know, one
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: hundred trucks a day come to drop off stuff. So
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: the parking tickets are astronomical. So most of these big chains, CBS,
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: the big drug stores, the big stores, they make a
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: deal with the city to pay a set fee for
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: all the park instead of paying every parking ticket on
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: every truck, they'll just pay a set fee and they'll negotiate.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: It'll be one hundred and fifty thousand a year to
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: pay all the tickets. FedEx has to do the same thing.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: You just do that, so but it adds to the
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: cost to your groceries. Then you come into Manhattan, you
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: got unions, you got all this, So that's why it
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: costs so much, has nothing to do with the grocery
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: store owners. In fact, supermarket owners the profit margin is
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: like one percent, which is unbelievably low. So mom don
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: doesn't understand any of this. Also, he has no idea
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: how to do a grocery store. It's absolutely astronomical what
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: he's spending. It normally would cost a million or two
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: million to open the thing. He's spending thirty million on
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: space that's already free that he owns. City Hall says
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: they will tap a private operator to manage the stores
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: daily operations. Now, there's no reason to even do any
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: of this. If you want to lower the price of groceries,
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: you could do that in one second. You just go
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: to every supermarket Manhattan and say we will no longer
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: ticket any truck in front of your store. We'll drop
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: some of the taxes on you. We'll get rid of
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: the taxes as long as you agree to lower the prices.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: They would all take the deal in a second. That's
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: all you have to do. You don't have to try
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: to build a grocery store that you don't know how
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: to build. Run it every day when you don't know
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: how to run. This is going to be an absolute disaster.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: First of all, if you said to Gristiiti's or Morton Williams,
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: here's some space, put a grocery store there, it would
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: be there two months later. If the city tries to
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: do it as they are here in East Harlem, it's
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: not going to be there till twenty twenty nine, three
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: years to do this. I mean, it's never even going
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: to happen. You'll never live to see one of these
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: grocery stores. Hey, we'll take some calls. Next. Eight hundred
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: three two one zero seven ten is the number. Eight
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: Mark simone on seven ten wr.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: Hey, we'll take some calls. Eight hundred three two one
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: zero seven ten is the number. Let's go to hal
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: in Freeport. How are you doing?
• 51:47
  Speaker 14: It's fabulous freeport. How were you?
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: Isn't that the nautical mile?
• 51:52
  Speaker 14: Well the call deal years ago, Paul Conti would.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: Say, paulady I remember, yeah.
• 51:58
  Speaker 14: Fabulous freeport. You buy a car. Oh, we'll go down
• 52:01
  Speaker 14: the nautical mile. We'll buy your dinner at the restaurant
• 52:03
  Speaker 14: of your choice.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: Well, the Miracle Mile that's near the Americana, that whole strip.
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: But down in the South Shore where you got all
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: those restaurants and clubs and bark, that was called the
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: Nautical Mile.
• 52:12
  Speaker 14: And there's only one good restaurant there called Nautilus. All
• 52:16
  Speaker 14: the rest are the fresh Store of today. Anyway, Yeah,
• 52:20
  Speaker 14: go ahead, anyway, I had an idea with the epidemic
• 52:24
  Speaker 14: two or three years ago to get produce any goods
• 52:28
  Speaker 14: that's grown on the North Fork and the South Fork.
• 52:32
  Speaker 14: Put it on pallets and put it on train the
• 52:35
  Speaker 14: last car, get it into Penn Station, and you could
• 52:39
  Speaker 14: also feed the restaurants there or somehow disperse it where
• 52:44
  Speaker 14: you don't need these big trucks and diesel guzzlers and
• 52:47
  Speaker 14: everything else you get.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: I hate to break it to you, we already do this.
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: Many of our restaurants and stores are getting produce from
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: the North Shore. In the South Shore, they're already doing that.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: But even if it's a small truck, you gotta park
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: at some No.
• 53:00
  Speaker 14: No, you put it on a last car of the
• 53:03
  Speaker 14: Long Island Railroad.
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but then you have to get it from Penn
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: Station to the store.
• 53:07
  Speaker 14: No, No, the restaurants at Penn Station.
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: There's no restaurants at Penn Station.
• 53:12
  Speaker 14: Well, what's the other one? Uh? Grand Central Station. Yeah,
• 53:18
  Speaker 14: they have restaurants, right.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Not really. They got two up on the mezzanine and
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: then they underneath they got the clip. But no, no, no
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: they can't. It doesn't work that way. No, no, it
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: has to go through the loading docks service entrance. Uh yeah,
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Pen Grand Central. Actually you can eat very well.
• 53:32
  Speaker 14: There.
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: There's a steakhouse, there's the at Brassray Grand Brassarray. There's
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: a Chipriani, there's a by the way in Grand Central.
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: They got a like a supermarket there that's phenomenal, phenomenal.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: That food hall, it's like the best of everything, Murray's
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: Cheese and eat from the Upper Easts, like really good
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: if you want to just do your grocery shopping. Grand Central.
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: It's phenomenal. And there's the oyster bar down below. Now
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: if you go to Penn Station, there is nothing to eat.
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: It's like prison food. The whole place. There's that one
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: pizza place that's not bad. What's the pizza place down there?
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: It's okay, it's not it's not bad, but it's not great.
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: There's nothing to eat at Penn Station. Let's go to
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: Danny in Long Island. Danny, how you.
• 54:16
  Speaker 13: Doing doing good?
• 54:18
  Speaker 6: Walk?
• 54:18
  Speaker 16: I remember it was a place in pen that sold
• 54:20
  Speaker 16: the giants slice of pizza. It wasn't great pizza, but
• 54:22
  Speaker 16: the size of it alone was breathtaking. But listen, the
• 54:24
  Speaker 16: more I listened to this Mondani, how much he's in
• 54:27
  Speaker 16: over his head. You know, it's gonna cost thirty million
• 54:30
  Speaker 16: dollars to build a supermarket. Forget that you have to
• 54:33
  Speaker 16: pay rent to the place where it is now.
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: But actually there's no rent. It's free space. They own
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: the space.
• 54:39
  Speaker 16: Okay, well, it's a logistical nightmare. You talk about how
• 54:41
  Speaker 16: many people you have to employ just to run a supermarket, manages, deli,
• 54:46
  Speaker 16: people stocking the shelves of that. It's a twenty four
• 54:48
  Speaker 16: to seven operation. You'd be better off seen that people
• 54:51
  Speaker 16: qualify and give him a fifty dollars gift card.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: And yeah, no, that's a good idea. Yeah, first of all,
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter because you'll never live to see the supermarket.
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: It's never going to open and it will never happen.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: You know, this is how these guys are so crazy,
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: These socialist communist left wing kook politicians. They take office,
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: they show here's to all the stuff. Okay, thirty million
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: to build one supermarket. Uh, and he announces it thirty
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: million supermarket. Now, every real expert from the real world
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: has told him it's one million to open a supermarket,
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: maybe two million at the most. John Katzematite's met with
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: him the other day told him, you know, it's about
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: two million at the most. Really, one million to open
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: a supermarket. If you were a normal person, you'd run
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: out of the room screaming at your people. What the
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: hell did you tell me thirty million for? Why would
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: you tell me?
• 55:41
  Speaker 14: Now?
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: I know it's only one but they don't say a word.
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: They go ahead with their thirty million. Why it's contracts.
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: You can hand out lots of contracts to hand out.
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Robert and Manhattan. Robert, how you doing.
• 55:57
  Speaker 10: The discussion that Lincoln trailer.
• 56:03
  Speaker 13: It's all about one hundred and thirty five dollars.
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: Very good point. I forgot about that. Not only when
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: your truck comes to Manhattan, not only will you get
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty dollars parking ticket, you'll pay one
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty to come through the tunnel. You're right,
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: it's an extra three hundred just to get to Manhattan.
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: Very good point. Yeah, that's you want to bring down
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: the prices. All you got to do. No more parking
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: tickets on those trucks, and trucks can come through the
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: tunnels and bridges for free. You know, the real good
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: idea was everybody always said, why don't you just have
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: all these trucks do they're delivering between midnight and six
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: when there's no traffic and you can park anywhere. Well,
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: that would make a lot of sense. But then every building,
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: every office building, every apartment, everybody'd have to have their
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: service entrance manned and operated twenty four hours a day.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: It's too expensive, so they don't want to do it.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Bob in Montvale, New Jersey. Bob, how
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: you doing.
• 56:58
  Speaker 15: I'm doing good, Mark, thanks to taking a And you know,
• 57:01
  Speaker 15: I did hear mister Catain the Tide's talk about, you know,
• 57:06
  Speaker 15: those stores. But last Wednesday on his own show, he
• 57:10
  Speaker 15: said he met with the mayor and agreed to help him. So,
• 57:15
  Speaker 15: I know what you said, but there's nothing we can
• 57:17
  Speaker 15: do about those contracts. They're always going to be there.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: But No, that's the other way government operates here. John
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: is the world expert in New York City on how
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: to operate a supermarket. He has more supermarkets in New
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: York for forty years. He said to the mayor, I'd
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: be happy to help you. If that were any normal person,
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: they would call him every day with seventeen different questions.
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: You'd keep consulting him. But it's government. Yeah, we don't
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: need him. We can do this ourselves. We'll figure it out.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: It's fascinating to watch. It's like these amateurs that do
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: these podcasts. They'll go to every professional radio person. I
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: hate my podcast. You gotta listen to my podcast, and
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: it never ask a question, ask them for some advice,
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: ask them how to do They never ask thee They
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: just think they're the same thing with politicians. Well, uh hey,
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: when we come back and Culter will be with us next.
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: Lots to talk to her about in just a few
• 58:15

  Speaker 5: How are you, marximone?
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: I'm good, beautiful day. Do you like to Well, you're
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: all You're in California, you're in Florida, you're used to this.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: We haven't seen ady in a long time. It's very good.
• 59:00
  Speaker 5: I hope you have the clothes for it.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: Me not have the clothes for something.
• 59:06
  Speaker 5: That's true.
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: Now, let me ask you Trump de arrangement syndrome question. Now,
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: sometimes you hate Trump, you don't, but it's always something specific.
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: I don't like what he did on the border. I
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: don't like this. I don't like But these people that
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: go nuts over anything he does. What is the cure
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: for that?
• 59:22
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I've wondered about that. I've asked some
• 59:26
  Speaker 5: of my New York Times reporter friends. Some of them
• 59:30
  Speaker 5: have it, some of them don't. But as I said
• 59:34
  Speaker 5: in the theme of my last book, it's it's utterly counterproductive.
• 59:39
  Speaker 5: They can't they can't formulate a straight argument. It's just,
• 59:43
  Speaker 5: you know, just that he's a poopy head and that's
• 59:45
  Speaker 5: supposed to be sufficient, and everything he does they put
• 59:49
  Speaker 5: the worst possible interpretation on. Not to mention they're getting
• 59:52
  Speaker 5: awfully cliched. They've really got to stop comparing him to
• 59:55
  Speaker 5: a mafia don so old or talking about out the
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 5: adults in the room, et cetera, et cetera. But anyway,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 5: the New York Times reporters thought it would go away,
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 5: because I do think the New York Times became and
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 5: they are the most articulate version of liberal thought. But
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 5: when Trump came along, unfortunately, it shot up subscriptions to
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 5: the New York Times. But but I think their their
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 5: reportage standards really dropped, uh to cover Trump. And and
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 5: so I've asked him, do you think it'll go back
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 5: to normal once he's gone? They assured me it would,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 5: but I'm not sure it will or it has. I mean,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 5: we had kind of an example of that during the
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 5: four years Biden was in office. Uh, And the shrillness
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 5: of the attacks. It's also a little bit like they
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 5: are the little boy crying wolf when when everything he
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 5: does leads to, you know, fire alarms from them, How
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 5: are we supposed to know when there is actually something
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 5: to be concerned about?
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Also, whatever he does, this is it. He's finished.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: It's over the Jesus picture, this is the end.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 5: Kind of given up on that second second term since
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 5: they were so spectacularly wrong when he won a second term.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 5: I think I think that's calmed down some of the
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 5: particularly girlish hysterics on the left when they saw that,
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 5: accusing him of being a Russian, Asian or rapist. What
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 5: else for a king, cheat, a liar, a king? And
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 5: oh and of course what was it I can't even
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 5: remember how many felonies thirty four felonies. When they saw
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 5: that that woe did not work. In fact, backfired spectacularly
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 5: when he was re elected with an even larger popular
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 5: vote margin in twenty twenty four. That that really settled
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 5: a lot of them down. Oops, our hysteria has not worked.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: Well. The new one is you you cannot attack a pope.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: You if you attack a pope, you can't have a
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: fight with him. Don't you remember he attacked and fought
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: with the pope eight years ago with the other pope.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: Nobody remembers it.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 5: Well, he is h a barbarian lout.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's the idea.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 4: No, Trump is that's the idea.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 5: Should have been attacked the way the Tom Holman did,
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 5: which I retweeted, Yeah, I know early this morning. It
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 5: was put perfectly, don't this is not this is not
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 5: a moment for sophomore tweets about or whatever his truth
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 5: socially about a pope. Holman was perfectly calm and serious, uh,
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 5: saying if he saw what I saw, he realized how
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 5: many were and described what he sees, you know, nine
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 5: year old girls being bleeding from being repeatedly raped and trafficked,
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 5: and opening trucks with twenty nine dead human bodies, including
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 5: children from the heat, trying to cross into the border,
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 5: et cetera, et cetera. Not to mention all the dead Americans,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 5: he says, if the Pope saw what I saw, he
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 5: would not be so cavalier about all the lives we're saving.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 4: That's the way to respond, of course.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: But it's ten years now. When are people going to
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: realize that Donald Trump he's the most powerful man in
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: the world. He's this big CEO, he's the present, but
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: he's also a little Howard Stern. There's a Howard Stern
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: side to him. He's going to treat some outrageous things,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: and he's going to make some bad jokes and what'd
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: you call him a barbarian lout. He's going to do
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: that once in a while. It's part it comes.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm well aware of that. I wish he wouldn't.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 5: Most people can alternate. I mean, there's a different way
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 5: every even children speak differently to their kindergarten teacher than
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 5: to their mother, than to their little playmates than to
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 5: you know, the next door neighbor. I suspect, but just
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 5: know how to do this, But our president does not.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: Okay. But as you know, as you've seen with your
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: own eyes, behind the scenes when nobody's looking, every politician
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: talks that way and does the same stuff. They just
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: do it privately, then in public they put on that
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: formal version of themselves. But he decided, like Howard Stern,
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to go on the air and be myself,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: no filter. What's wrong with it?
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 5: I am completely rejecting this as being acceptable marks alone.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 5: Mister May continues to say it in that beautiful radio
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 5: voice you have, which almost is luring me in. But
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I rejected and dial all right.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: But it was the same thing with Howard Stern when
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: he came along all the old radio guys. Ah, yeah, okay,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: that's funny, but he but not this. He went too far,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: and he's always going to go too far.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 5: I never really cared for Howard Stern. I thought he
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 5: had some funny people on his program, but I thought
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 5: he also was what barbarian lout?
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, but there's a place for barbarians.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 5: By the way, nobody would elect him president.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: Well that's true. What about the Swallowell? This is like
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: the other Epstein, isn't it. I mean, here they got
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: an Epstein in their midst and they're covering it up
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: for all this time.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 5: It's I'm it's it's sunning. It's sunning. All these girls
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 5: coming forward. It does remind me of Bob Packwood and
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 5: for your for your younger listeners. The Democrats have a
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 5: habit of doing this when they don't need a politician anymore.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 5: They are well aware. I mean, all these Democrats coming out,
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 5: all these girls coming out. I think you and I
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 5: were the only people who didn't know about this, Mark Simone.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 5: So why do they hit him now on it? Because
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 5: they want to get him out of the race for governor.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 5: He's considered the most moderate of the Democratic candidates. So
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 5: the same thing happened a million years ago. I mean,
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 5: it's happened million other times, but it was just so
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 5: obvious this quote. Republican member of the Senate, Senator Bob
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 5: Packwood was the Rhino of his day, really really really
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 5: pro abortion. So the Democrats wanted him for his pro
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 5: abortion vote when they didn't need him anymore. It was
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 5: the first year. It was when Clinton was elected. Clinton
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 5: had a Democrat House, Democrat Senate large enough majorities they
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 5: didn't need this rhino Republican anymore. And suddenly the flood
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 5: gates open. Every single member of the Democratic Party knew
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 5: about it, all these women stepping forward, but no, they
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 5: just kept their lips zipped because they wanted to keep
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 5: him in office. And you do see that with Swallow
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 5: one thing. One thing. I mean, I've been so distracted
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 5: by the fact that all of these girls were so
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 5: intoxicated they didn't remember what happened. But since that they
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 5: had been raped the next day, will I will pete
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 5: My my warning to to to the female sex. Really
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 5: a bad idea to get so drunk that you can't
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 5: walk or remember what what what happened to you? Really
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 5: really beide besides being unladylike, bad things can happen. One
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 5: thing I haven't heard anyone mentioned. And I suppose she's
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 5: better off this way. But oh my gosh, what about
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 5: Smallwell's wife. No, yeah, oh, there's a deep sensitivity from Marksimo.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 5: You really feel sorry for I mean, she has three
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 5: little kids. She thinks she's you know, on easy Street,
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 5: married this this, and you know, well, certainly by the
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 5: standards of congressome particularly the Democratic Party, this handsome congressman
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 5: on his way up, uh has a wonderful life. And
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 5: suddenly she finds out this. Oh my gosh, I don't
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 5: know what. I guess you divorce him, but it's pretty awful.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: Hey, the Gilgo Beach mass murderer. That wife hasn't divorced
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: him yet, so.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 5: I think she's getting that divorce with bothering to hire
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 5: an attorney.
• 1:08:22

  Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 5: Now back to Mark Simone on wor Well.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: You know the New York Times. They got all those
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: crazy left wing, angry coops at the New York Times,
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: but there were always these guys that were kind of respectable,
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: thoughtful types. There was David Brooks. He was supposed to
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: be the Republican over there, but he's more left wing
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: than anybody. And then there's the other one Thomas Friedman.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: And these are the guys that when they came on,
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: they were professorial, respectable, elder statesman, thoughtful, you'd see them
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: on PBS, and well now they just became absolute raging cooks.
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: Thomas Friedman New York Times shocked everybody this week, just
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: stunned them when he actually said out loud in writing,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: he just actually said, I don't want to see US
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: win in Iran. I hope Iran wins because I don't
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: want to see He actually said, I don't want to
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: see Donald Trump or Benjamin Netta who benefit politically from
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: US winning the war, because they're horrible, disgusting, despicable people.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: So he actually said, he hopes the enemy beats America.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: He hopes America loses the war. I mean, it's unbelievable
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 1: that anybody would say that. And it's one thing if
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: you're a twenty six year old, angry, vicious New York
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: Times kok, but this is their elder statesman, this is
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: their grand columnist, this is Thomas Friedman. People are stunned
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: that he said it. I mean, there's no way you
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: should be saying anything like that during war that I
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: hope America loses, And there's no way if you're a
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: legitimate news organization that you should hire anybody like that,
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: or should at least be suspended or reprimanded, or that
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: somebody should apologize for it. Can you imagine the middle
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: of World War Two, a whole pitler wins because I
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: hate FDR. I don't want to see him look good.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: A whole pitler wins. Can you imagine anybody saying that
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: in World War Two? But here you got Tom Friedman
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: actually saying it out loud New York Times. Total silence.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: They don't say a word about it. It's just fine
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: for them. It's that Trump derangement syndrome, like we were
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 1: just talking about with Anne Coulter. She hates Trump sometimes
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: sometimes she's attacking Trump like crazy, but it's always over
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: a specific issue and I wish he didn't do this
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 1: with the border and this with the deportations. It's always
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: about something specific. And then when he does something good
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: she likes him. But Trump derangement syndrome, it's just insane.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 1: It's just over the top, crazy, insane hatred about anything
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: and everything. Hey, we're out of time. Enjoy the day.
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: It's going to be summer. Today, it'll be near ninety.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 1: I'll be back tomorrow ten to noon. I hope you
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 1: will be too. I'll talk to you then on seven
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: ten Woir
