- 0:00Speaker 1: Just sid and Friends in the Morning, entertaining and informative.
- 0:05Speaker 2: On the Red Apple podcast Network. Informative.
- 0:11Speaker 1: This is Sitting Friends in the Morning, seventy seven WABC.
- 0:16Speaker 3: In the State of the Union, Trump touted his big
- 0:18Speaker 3: achievement was bringing down the cost of drugs. He launched
- 0:22Speaker 3: trump Urx early February. This is a website that really,
- 0:27Speaker 3: you know, it helps patients find medications either by buying
- 0:32Speaker 3: them directly from their manufacturer using a coupon. You were
- 0:36Speaker 3: pretty optimistic about trump our x when it started.
- 0:38Speaker 4: How do you assess the execution?
- 0:40Speaker 5: Look, there's no downside to offering medications for a lower price.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Competition is better. So I'm all for trump our X.
- 0:48Speaker 5: You know, I don't Republicans need medications too, you know,
- 0:51Speaker 5: I'm not into the trump r X is.
- 0:53Speaker 3: A government site intended to offer drugs to all Americans.
- 0:56Speaker 6: And that's not just Republicans, right, No, that's right.
- 0:58Speaker 5: Right, whatever, And the point is whatever gets people lower
- 1:00Speaker 5: price medications, Yes, sign me up.
- 1:03Speaker 3: Democrats published a report about trump our X, accusing it
- 1:07Speaker 3: of misleading Americans for not mentioning that lower cost generic
- 1:10Speaker 3: versions of some drugs are available in other places. So
- 1:14Speaker 3: Congressman Frank Polone said, uh that Trump our X is
- 1:17Speaker 3: all hype and no true action. And Ron Wryden said,
- 1:20Speaker 3: it's really a glorified coupon book. Is that fair?
- 1:23Speaker 5: I mean it's it was a waste of time. Was
- 1:27Speaker 5: a waste of time, just plain, Hey, Trump did it?
- 1:30Speaker 7: We hate it.
- 1:31Speaker 8: There's no there's not.
- 1:32Speaker 3: Like a real criticism that you have so many more drugs.
- 1:35Speaker 5: Prices are cheaper them, right, yeah, but it's just the beginning, right,
- 1:40Speaker 5: give them a chance. Anything that opens the door for
- 1:44Speaker 5: lower price medications.
- 1:45Speaker 2: I'm a fan of.
- 1:54Speaker 8: Let's get Run. Well, that's all you need to know,
- 2:06Speaker 8: this great, greatful Dead song. When Mark Cuban, Mark Cuban
- 2:11Speaker 8: actually gives President Trump credit for something, you, oh, it
- 2:15Speaker 8: must be great because he hated every second of that.
- 2:21Speaker 8: But it's hard to argue Trump r REX doing a
- 2:24Speaker 8: spectacular job. Prices dipping three point one percent. That is
- 2:30Speaker 8: the biggest drop in over sixty years since nineteen sixty three.
- 2:36Speaker 8: Seventy excuse me, seven hundred millions saved in savings. And
- 2:42Speaker 8: my first guest this morning, he's been on a lot lately,
- 2:44Speaker 8: thank god, because he's my hero. I love this guy
- 2:46Speaker 8: doing an amazing job. With everything from these prescription drugs
- 2:50Speaker 8: to exposing Medicare and Medicaid and just doing great work
- 2:55Speaker 8: for Bobby Kennedy. Is my dear Friendma met Oz, doctor Oz,
- 2:59Speaker 8: doctor Oscar Friday morning, buddy, how.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Are you good?
- 3:02Speaker 9: Mari sid You know Mark Cuban's comments there are very telling.
- 3:06Speaker 9: When folks who just objectively know the space agree that
- 3:11Speaker 9: Trump RX, which is taking all the great work that's
- 3:14Speaker 9: been done with most favored nation drug price negotiations, which
- 3:17Speaker 9: we'll get to, is actually working, then the hollow, angry
- 3:23Speaker 9: vehemence from the left doesn't make sense. I mean, you
- 3:26Speaker 9: should be rooting for this. I don't care what political
- 3:28Speaker 9: party you're in if you're taking the main problem and
- 3:31Speaker 9: a lot of Americans are concerned about with regard to health,
- 3:34Speaker 9: and just to put some numbers on it, almost a
- 3:36Speaker 9: third of Americans prescribed a brand product, which is the
- 3:39Speaker 9: expense of drugs, will leave the pharmacy empty handed because
- 3:42Speaker 9: they can't afford the medications. Again, that means your doctor
- 3:45Speaker 9: prescribed you a pill that can change your life, and
- 3:48Speaker 9: you go to the drug store and although everything was
- 3:50Speaker 9: done right, you just can't afford the medications. That's not right.
- 3:53Speaker 9: So the President said, why is that happening. This doesn't
- 3:55Speaker 9: happen in other parts of the world. Part of the
- 3:57Speaker 9: reason that happens is we spend Sidney times more than
- 4:01Speaker 9: any other country on the planet, but the exact same drugs,
- 4:03Speaker 9: even when they're made here in America. It makes no
- 4:05Speaker 9: sense whatsoever to tolerate that. So the President said, noms,
- 4:08Speaker 9: we're going to fix that. We went at the manufacturers aggressively.
- 4:12Speaker 9: We did not price fix, you know, that's another false allegation.
- 4:16Speaker 9: We just said to the industry, whatever you're charging in
- 4:18Speaker 9: other parts of the world, we want the same price here.
- 4:20Speaker 9: And so we use trade tools and other mechanisms to
- 4:23Speaker 9: protect these companies from being beaten up unfairly overseas. No
- 4:27Speaker 9: more global fee loading. Whatever the price is in Germany
- 4:30Speaker 9: or France or whatever, it can be the same price here.
- 4:32Speaker 9: That has resulted, as you pointed out, not to bury
- 4:36Speaker 9: the lead, in the largest reduction in drug prices in
- 4:40Speaker 9: sixty three years, and it also is the most and
- 4:43Speaker 9: fastest reduction ever over the last six months. But let
- 4:46Speaker 9: me put this in context. The reason sixty three years
- 4:48Speaker 9: ago that drug prices dropped is that Congress was really
- 4:52Speaker 9: angry about some complications that have happened with some medications.
- 4:55Speaker 9: So they insisted that from now on, manufacturers have to
- 4:58Speaker 9: prove that their drugs worked. Let me say that again.
- 5:01Speaker 9: Until sixty three, you didn't have to actually prove your
- 5:04Speaker 9: drugs work that well.
- 5:05Speaker 6: Wow.
- 5:05Speaker 9: And so when they actually forced the companies to do that,
- 5:07Speaker 9: not surprisingly the prices dropped. That's the kind of seismic
- 5:11Speaker 9: ship that was required. And this is just what President
- 5:13Speaker 9: Trump's doing. He's a seismic force, an immense political force.
- 5:17Speaker 9: He made a change happen no one thought possible. If
- 5:19Speaker 9: we can get Congress to codify this, which by the way,
- 5:22Speaker 9: Democrats could help us do by voting for exactly what
- 5:25Speaker 9: we're saying, which is a reduced unbrug prices for Americans,
- 5:28Speaker 9: then we'd all be happier. And these would result in
- 5:31Speaker 9: six hundred billion dollars, not million billion dollars of savings
- 5:35Speaker 9: over the next decade, which would make health prices come
- 5:38Speaker 9: down for a lot of Americans were struggling. And when
- 5:40Speaker 9: affordability is the issue of the day, this is a
- 5:43Speaker 9: to me anyway. And then just what the doctor ordered.
- 5:46Speaker 8: And I love what the girls said there. Republicans and
- 5:49Speaker 8: Democrats we need medication. Now, correct me if I'm wrong,
- 5:53Speaker 8: But this is just for cash buys, no insurance right
- 5:58Speaker 8: for now.
- 5:58Speaker 9: It's cash buys. Let me give you two examples. A
- 6:01Speaker 9: lot of people have health insurance, but their health insurance
- 6:04Speaker 9: doesn't cover the so called fat shots that the GLP
- 6:07Speaker 9: one medications that are helping people lose so much weight.
- 6:10Speaker 9: So if you're one of the many Americans, probably most
- 6:12Speaker 9: Americans at this point, whose insurance doesn't cover then number
- 6:15Speaker 9: one most used group of drugs in America, well then
- 6:20Speaker 9: that's a big deal for you because now we will
- 6:22Speaker 9: selling those drugs on Trump or x dot because we
- 6:24Speaker 9: negotiated them with the big companies at a price that's
- 6:27Speaker 9: a fraction of what it used to be. And if
- 6:29Speaker 9: you're on Medicare, a senior and you're eligible, we will
- 6:32Speaker 9: give those meds to you with fifty dollars a month.
- 6:34Speaker 9: These things just cost more than a thousand dollars a week.
- 6:37Speaker 9: Fifty dollars a month. That's driving a lot of its
- 6:39Speaker 9: reduction in costs. Then you might say, why are we
- 6:41Speaker 9: doing that? You know what my job is to save,
- 6:43Speaker 9: protect the taxpayer and my beneficiaries, the people of Medicare,
- 6:46Speaker 9: Medicaid one hundred and seventy million people who get their
- 6:49Speaker 9: covers through healthcare insurance from the government. Well, listen, if
- 6:52Speaker 9: you're losing weight and have less hypertension, less diabetes, you
- 6:55Speaker 9: have less strokes, less renewal failure, dialysis, all those things
- 6:59Speaker 9: go down, you're saving money. So we believe that by
- 7:02Speaker 9: investing in getting Americans these drugs at an affordable price,
- 7:05Speaker 9: they will use these drugs, lose weight, and cost the
- 7:08Speaker 9: taxpayer less body. Plus, that's our job, right said, get
- 7:11Speaker 9: people healthy, Healthy Americans are working Americans, working Americans, make
- 7:15Speaker 9: America prosperous, will drive a trillion more dollars of value
- 7:19Speaker 9: to the economy. That's what we're supposed to do. Help
- 7:21Speaker 9: each other be healthy enough to be productive in life
- 7:24Speaker 9: and spend more time with people.
- 7:25Speaker 8: We love one hundred percent. And I always say, I
- 7:28Speaker 8: don't understand how anybody no disrespect that people are overweight,
- 7:32Speaker 8: because I love them too, But how is anybody fat anymore?
- 7:35Speaker 8: I mean, these dolps, they work for everybody. They're even
- 7:38Speaker 8: making I know you know this because Bobby Kennedy talked
- 7:41Speaker 8: about this. They're making peptids now, which well I believe,
- 7:45Speaker 8: I believe I could be wrong. You could correct me.
- 7:47Speaker 8: We'll give you the combination of the GLP effect losing weight,
- 7:51Speaker 8: but you'll be able to at the same time maintain
- 7:53Speaker 8: your muscle. I mean, how is every American not in
- 7:57Speaker 8: great shape?
- 7:58Speaker 9: Said? The reason that many Americas don't take these medications,
- 8:02Speaker 9: it is because they can't afford them. Let's talk about
- 8:04Speaker 9: the population is the biggest obesity issue. If you're listening
- 8:07Speaker 9: right now in New York and you live in one
- 8:09Speaker 9: of the more lower half of the financial pyramid, you
- 8:13Speaker 9: can't afford these meds. But that's where the obesity epidemic is.
- 8:16Speaker 9: There's folks living in poverty who are eating junk food
- 8:19Speaker 9: because it's cheaper, and they're in food desert, so they
- 8:22Speaker 9: have a lot of reasons why they're gaining weight. But
- 8:25Speaker 9: the solutions are out there, but they can't pay for them.
- 8:29Speaker 9: They can't afford them. You know what the number one
- 8:31Speaker 9: zip code in America for GLP one medications is, said, I.
- 8:34Speaker 8: Gotta take a guess, is it Florida.
- 8:38Speaker 9: Upper East side of Manhattan?
- 8:39Speaker 2: Right where you are?
- 8:40Speaker 8: Really?
- 8:41Speaker 9: Yeah, yep, upper east side of Manhattan.
- 8:43Speaker 8: Why is that where?
- 8:44Speaker 9: Because they have the money If they can't afford it right, right,
- 8:47Speaker 9: they want to lose five pounds to go to the
- 8:49Speaker 9: Hamptons over Labor Day and look a little better than
- 8:51Speaker 9: they look right now. It's like they're just tuning it up.
- 8:54Speaker 9: It's a little bit extra here, right, They're not dealing
- 8:56Speaker 9: with the one hundred pounds of extra weight driving ibetes
- 9:00Speaker 9: Hye pretension downstreing complications that will take their lives. The
- 9:04Speaker 9: life expectancy difference between the bottom quarter of the population
- 9:08Speaker 9: and the top quarter of the population is ten years.
- 9:12Speaker 9: It's a decade of difference in life expectancy. A lot
- 9:15Speaker 9: of that is chronic illnesses, and I got to pay
- 9:18Speaker 9: the tab. That's my job running Medicare and Medicaid for
- 9:20Speaker 9: Secretary Kennedy and the President, so I know where the
- 9:22Speaker 9: money is going. Seventy to eighty percent of the money
- 9:24Speaker 9: we're spending is chronic illnesses, many of them caused by obesity.
- 9:28Speaker 9: So the ability to treat people and get their weight
- 9:31Speaker 9: down is massively beneficial to the country, not just for
- 9:36Speaker 9: the ethical reasons, but for the financial purposes, which is
- 9:40Speaker 9: why what the President has accomplished and should get credit for,
- 9:43Speaker 9: is to drive the prices down this much over the
- 9:47Speaker 9: last year, the most ever in sixty three years. He
- 9:50Speaker 9: should get credit. And frankly, the people made it possible,
- 9:53Speaker 9: where the folks in the administration and members of Congress
- 9:55Speaker 9: are now evaluating this option to try to make legislation
- 9:58Speaker 9: that codifieses, which this means make these rules last forever.
- 10:02Speaker 9: The President got these deals for his administration for the
- 10:05Speaker 9: term of our time in office, but we need to
- 10:08Speaker 9: make sure that they last forever, so we can get
- 10:10Speaker 9: those stats six hundred billion dollars of sustained savings, so
- 10:14Speaker 9: we don't have Americans running into the wall of price
- 10:16Speaker 9: when they're trying to get their meade in the pharmacy.
- 10:18Speaker 8: So instead of Americans on and on about this Iran conflict,
- 10:22Speaker 8: if they were really paying attention, I mean really paying attention,
- 10:25Speaker 8: they would notice that the Dow Jones is up, eggs
- 10:28Speaker 8: are down, and now you pay less than your drugs.
- 10:31Speaker 8: I would say the president is doing a pretty spectacular job.
- 10:34Speaker 8: I would think at least that he'll make this one
- 10:37Speaker 8: of his real, real accomplishments leading up to the mid terms.
- 10:41Speaker 8: I'll be in Dallas. I'm sure you'll be there too
- 10:43Speaker 8: in a couple of weeks and correct me if I'm wrong,
- 10:45Speaker 8: but some of these big companies, companies like Pfizer, doctor
- 10:49Speaker 8: Oz are already involved in this.
- 10:51Speaker 9: Yes, the seventeen largest pharmaceutical companies that represent about eighty
- 10:57Speaker 9: five percent of all drugs sold in America, they're all
- 11:00Speaker 9: on board. And they didn't come happily, but with a
- 11:03Speaker 9: lot of persuasion. And that's what the President's good at,
- 11:05Speaker 9: you know, making deals. We got every one of them
- 11:07Speaker 9: on board. And here's the part you're not going to believe.
- 11:10Speaker 9: I've been saying this. You know, prices are way down
- 11:12Speaker 9: most everge sixty plus years. The amount of savings is
- 11:15Speaker 9: measured in hundreds of billions of dollars. Guess what the
- 11:18Speaker 9: pharmaceutical sector value on Wall Street went up? Not down? Up?
- 11:23Speaker 9: Why because Wall Street said for good or for bad.
- 11:25Speaker 9: These guys gave up some profits, but they got stability.
- 11:30Speaker 9: They got a deal so they can still go out
- 11:32Speaker 9: there and innovate and build new solutions cure disease. So
- 11:35Speaker 9: everybody won on this deal. It's exactly what you want
- 11:37Speaker 9: your government to do. And we did it by negotiating hard,
- 11:40Speaker 9: those tactics, doing what you but President Trump did the
- 11:43Speaker 9: build a real estate empire. We did it with the
- 11:45Speaker 9: pharmaceutical sector. We've also done it, by the way, with
- 11:47Speaker 9: insurance companies, hospital systems. There's a lot of reasons why
- 11:51Speaker 9: we're starting to get our arms around healthcare expenses in
- 11:53Speaker 9: this country. Got more to do, But this is exactly
- 11:56Speaker 9: what you want your government to do to competently hold
- 11:59Speaker 9: people account. Will take out the fraud wasted abuse, which
- 12:01Speaker 9: you know we've been doing, and make sure that Americans
- 12:03Speaker 9: get their money's worth.
- 12:04Speaker 8: Yeah, couple, Morgan, let you run. You know you did
- 12:06Speaker 8: an amazing job not far from with the Mets play
- 12:09Speaker 8: their home games and Flushing Queens, and you one covered
- 12:12Speaker 8: a bunch of these fraudulent Chinese pharmacies. I know you
- 12:15Speaker 8: did that, Okay, And you're doing a tremendous job of
- 12:18Speaker 8: exposing Medicare and Medicaid fraud waste all over this city,
- 12:23Speaker 8: all over the state. Now you talk about the Democrats,
- 12:25Speaker 8: you're gonna need their help in codifying this, and you
- 12:27Speaker 8: would think right that they'd be. They're gonna jump in
- 12:30Speaker 8: head first because Democrats need medication too. But the question
- 12:34Speaker 8: for my friend Russ Sullivan, and I agree with it,
- 12:36Speaker 8: is why have the Democrats been so quiet about all
- 12:40Speaker 8: the fraud you've you've been exposing, is it? I mean
- 12:42Speaker 8: as simple as well, they're gonna they're gonna get votes.
- 12:44Speaker 8: Are they getting kickbacks? Why have the Democrats been so
- 12:48Speaker 8: silent about all this Medicare and medicaid fraud you've exposed.
- 12:53Speaker 9: They're embarrassed, that's the fundamental reality. They thought that just
- 12:58Speaker 9: by that being nice people, folks would not take advantage
- 13:02Speaker 9: of them. But America has moved from being a high
- 13:05Speaker 9: trust society where people just don't steal from the poor,
- 13:08Speaker 9: to a nation that has allowed people, some of them immigrants,
- 13:10Speaker 9: and that's actually been a big problem. But many Americans
- 13:13Speaker 9: as well have lost their way, and the corruption rots
- 13:16Speaker 9: the system because if everyone around you stealing and you're not,
- 13:20Speaker 9: then you're a dope. And so we saw this happen
- 13:22Speaker 9: and I was in Philadelphia recently doing a big event
- 13:25Speaker 9: with our you know, the Department of Justice, and we
- 13:29Speaker 9: had it in front of a prison and they were
- 13:31Speaker 9: arresting a man for drug trafficking and he said, wait
- 13:35Speaker 9: a minute before you put the handcuffs on. I got
- 13:36Speaker 9: to sign out of my job. And the cops that
- 13:38Speaker 9: were you talking about, I'm arresting you for you're selling
- 13:40Speaker 9: drugs on the street because no, no, no, I got a
- 13:42Speaker 9: side gig as a home care person to do home healthcare.
- 13:45Speaker 9: Let me sign out, and the cops, I'm going to
- 13:48Speaker 9: arrest you for defrauding us there too, and he says,
- 13:50Speaker 9: if you arrest me, you got to arrest everybody. That's
- 13:53Speaker 9: what's happening in Queens as well. You have these social
- 13:56Speaker 9: adult day care centers which are basically play These are
- 13:58Speaker 9: mostly Chinese origin origin folks. The Chinese mafia runs it.
- 14:03Speaker 9: They clean up billions of dollars from this. When the
- 14:06Speaker 9: State of New York is confronted by this reality, what
- 14:08Speaker 9: are they going to say? I mean, they weren't looking.
- 14:10Speaker 9: They should have been paying attention. These are clubhouses of
- 14:12Speaker 9: inequity where they steal people's Medicare beneficiary number and massive
- 14:18Speaker 9: fake tabs, giving them things they don't need, just to
- 14:21Speaker 9: charge the federal taxpayer instead. The big problem I think
- 14:24Speaker 9: we're gonna have to deal with is that for some states,
- 14:27Speaker 9: and I think New York might be one of these states,
- 14:29Speaker 9: fraud is not a flaw. It's a feature. Because if
- 14:33Speaker 9: I can get people who would have been unemployed on
- 14:36Speaker 9: the federal payroll by getting them to let's say, carry
- 14:38Speaker 9: grocers upstairs for their parents, or host majong card games
- 14:43Speaker 9: in you know these facilities in Queens. They're making a
- 14:47Speaker 9: lot of money. They're paying taxes on that. And now
- 14:50Speaker 9: I got unfortunate news for you. The unions are involved.
- 14:53Speaker 9: The unions are trying to get these guys onto their
- 14:56Speaker 9: roster so they can now just take money directly out
- 14:58Speaker 9: of the federal treasury pay union dues. And guess where
- 15:01Speaker 9: the uniondus go. They go to political action committees to
- 15:04Speaker 9: support folks who are who are aligned with them, who
- 15:07Speaker 9: tend to be Democrats, not all, but tend to be Democrats.
- 15:10Speaker 8: Well there's your answer. Last one. You're a very handsome man,
- 15:13Speaker 8: my man, I got to tell you that I mean that,
- 15:15Speaker 8: and I take pride in my looks to In fact,
- 15:18Speaker 8: some say that I make George Hamilton look pale, actually
- 15:23Speaker 8: say that. So with that said, should I be excited
- 15:26Speaker 8: about this new vaccine which they say, well combat melanoma
- 15:32Speaker 8: skin cancer?
- 15:34Speaker 9: Well you know this already, but it's sun exposure, per
- 15:37Speaker 9: se doesn't cause melanoma. In fact, it's the burns that
- 15:41Speaker 9: from getting too much exposure, especially when you're young, they
- 15:44Speaker 9: can cause that. And George Hamilton is a friend of mine.
- 15:46Speaker 9: You guys probably could be body doubles for each other
- 15:48Speaker 9: in your skin tone. But I'm excited about these these approaches.
- 15:53Speaker 9: The idea that we could sensitize your immune system so
- 15:56Speaker 9: we could recognize cancer and therefore take it out is
- 15:59Speaker 9: a much more solution then toxic toxic chemotherapy and surgery,
- 16:04Speaker 9: which is what I do. Obviously I'm a surgeon. But
- 16:06Speaker 9: I'm going to point something out that's really critical. Everybody
- 16:09Speaker 9: listening to this show right now said everybody has cancer.
- 16:12Speaker 9: What do you mean immune systems. Our immune systems are
- 16:15Speaker 9: so so effective that they are finding those cancer cells
- 16:18Speaker 9: and killing them as we speak. And that's the normal
- 16:21Speaker 9: way the body functions. Body develops cancer cells, the immune
- 16:24Speaker 9: system picks up it recognized the sociopathic cells don't belong there,
- 16:27Speaker 9: and kills them off. Sometimes the cancer cells get clever.
- 16:31Speaker 9: They can have a cloaking mechanism to hide, or maybe
- 16:33Speaker 9: because you were smoking, or you know, damage your skin,
- 16:36Speaker 9: or whatever a reason. There's too much of these cancer cells.
- 16:39Speaker 9: Your body can't keep up. These vaccines will reawaken the
- 16:42Speaker 9: natural immune systems of built to kill cancer. And I
- 16:45Speaker 9: believe based on this early data, we'll be able to
- 16:47Speaker 9: save some lives.
- 16:48Speaker 8: Accordingly, well, that is fantastic and what a great learning experience.
- 16:51Speaker 8: So the cancer is already in our bodies, it's just
- 16:54Speaker 8: a matter of I guess what external external piece actually
- 17:00Speaker 8: have them come out.
- 17:02Speaker 9: And the good news here is we could take a cancer,
- 17:05Speaker 9: let's say, take it a little bopsey, expose it to
- 17:08Speaker 9: your immune system, and then teach your immune system that
- 17:11Speaker 9: this clever cancer variant that for whatever reason got away
- 17:14Speaker 9: from the normal surveillance can be caught again and then
- 17:17Speaker 9: off you go. And that's why things like pank we
- 17:19Speaker 9: added cancer melanoma, some of these cancers that are hard
- 17:22Speaker 9: to catch once they spread, we could get our arms
- 17:24Speaker 9: around them. And believe me, once your immune system recognizes it,
- 17:27Speaker 9: it kills it. That's why there is no cancer we
- 17:30Speaker 9: know of with a one hundred percent mortality rate. As
- 17:32Speaker 9: bad as a cancer can be for some reason, at
- 17:34Speaker 9: some point and some people, your immune system finally wakes
- 17:38Speaker 9: up to the problem, recognizes a marker on it, and
- 17:41Speaker 9: kills every one of them in your body without surgery.
- 17:43Speaker 9: And that's why we're excited about this tech technology that's
- 17:47Speaker 9: been out there for a while, but finally giving us
- 17:49Speaker 9: clinical results.

- 23:38Speaker 8: in most preseason polls, which Justin and I went over
- 23:41Speaker 8: this morning, and then oh'm in the Northeast. But I
- 23:43Speaker 8: love college football. I love it. Most of the Poles
- 23:46Speaker 8: have Indiana about five or six, but no Mendoza. So
- 23:50Speaker 8: I know that coach. He's a great coach. I forgot
- 23:52Speaker 8: his name, which is really sad. Oh damn Tom something
- 23:56Speaker 8: or other.
- 23:56Speaker 13: Great coach at Indiana.
- 23:57Speaker 8: Yeah, he won the Coach of the Year and his
- 23:59Speaker 8: team won that I championship. But let's see, because most
- 24:02Speaker 8: of the polls of Ohio State number one, the AP
- 24:05Speaker 8: and the coaches poll. See. I thought Texas may be
- 24:08Speaker 8: number one because of arch Manning Elion Payton's.
- 24:11Speaker 13: Brother, Signetti curtain signet.
- 24:13Speaker 8: That's right, Signetti, but Kirk. But Ohio State is number one,
- 24:17Speaker 8: both of those poles.
- 24:18Speaker 12: And both the coaches poll and twenty five. Yeah, and
- 24:20Speaker 12: then you get Oregon, Georgia, and then interchangeably here Texas
- 24:24Speaker 12: and Notre Dame.

- 24:31Speaker 8: love baseball, believe me, I love baseball, but I need football.
- 24:35Speaker 13: And honestly, you know, the Yankees will get in.
- 24:37Speaker 8: And Yankees will get in. They'll lose to somebody in
- 24:39Speaker 8: the National League if they don't lose somewhere along the
- 24:42Speaker 8: line of the playoffs. Rightly, the Mets are done for
- 24:44Speaker 8: about two years.
- 24:45Speaker 13: It's one of the big thing for the Yankees is
- 24:46Speaker 13: you got to avoid that wildcard series. So you got
- 24:48Speaker 13: to win the debate.
- 24:48Speaker 8: But who's the wild cont series Tampa Bay. No, you

- 28:32Speaker 17: These are the years that were hot.
- 28:34Speaker 9: Fuck what now?
- 28:36Speaker 8: So I always love it when sports and politics intersected.
- 28:40Speaker 8: Brian Kilmeat and I were offered a sports show to
- 28:43Speaker 8: do together many many years ago, like twenty plus years
- 28:47Speaker 8: ago here in New York City, and we both declined.
- 28:50Speaker 8: It was the late nineteen nineties. Now, Brian Killmeet is
- 28:53Speaker 8: a major superstar in television radio. He's an author of
- 28:57Speaker 8: Live Theater, All that Great Stuff and pretty well Now.
- 29:01Speaker 8: The last couple of days, we've seen a couple of
- 29:04Speaker 8: former well one former one current ESPN personalities that have
- 29:09Speaker 8: made it to the Big news, one being Stephen A.
- 29:12Speaker 8: Smith and one being Sage Steele. So kill me, design
- 29:15Speaker 8: after me every weekday morning at ten here on seventy
- 29:18Speaker 8: seven WABC does an amazing radio show. He's part of
- 29:21Speaker 8: that threesome every morning Fox and Friends on Fox News.
- 29:25Speaker 8: And he's got the best cable show in the business
- 29:28Speaker 8: ten PM Sunday nights on Fox News one Nation. Maybe
- 29:31Speaker 8: that'll be the next show I get back on after
- 29:34Speaker 8: I'm allowed back at Box. I don't know, but Sage Steele,
- 29:37Speaker 8: It turns out the lovely Sage Steele has been getting
- 29:41Speaker 8: dms for a long time from NBA coaches, Doc Rivers
- 29:46Speaker 8: and Steve Kerr calling her all kinds of names like
- 29:50Speaker 8: idiot because she supports President Trump. And Stephen A. Smith
- 29:56Speaker 8: got an award two thumbs down from the end BJ
- 30:00Speaker 8: the Black Journalist because he had the nerve to call
- 30:04Speaker 8: out African American females like Jasmine Crockett enjoy read for
- 30:11Speaker 8: being a Sean Hannity pointed out, nutty, pretty interesting here, Brian.
- 30:16Speaker 8: You get Sage Steele and Stephen A. Smith that go
- 30:19Speaker 8: from ESPN to mainstream news.
- 30:23Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, these guys are idiots.
- 30:24Speaker 18: As Steve Kerr, I guess you know, as a player,
- 30:27Speaker 18: he was fine when we opened up his mouth. Now
- 30:29Speaker 18: that you know these Golden State Warriors are past his prime.
- 30:32Speaker 18: He hasn't gotten close to the playoffs, so getting close
- 30:34Speaker 18: to a championship. So I don't even know what kind
- 30:36Speaker 18: of coach he is, but every time he gets a chance,
- 30:38Speaker 18: he always bouts his left wing views. Same thing with
- 30:42Speaker 18: San Antonio coach for years Popovich. So instead of just
- 30:46Speaker 18: keeping them out shut and respecting people's point of view
- 30:48Speaker 18: if different from yours, they go ahead and rip them.
- 30:51Speaker 18: If if you're in sports you have to have left
- 30:53Speaker 18: wing views. Do you really think Steven A. Smith's gonna
- 30:56Speaker 18: melt because of that? Or even Stage Steele Sage Steele
- 30:58Speaker 18: after which he's been through personally giving up, you know,
- 31:01Speaker 18: being one of the top backers at ESPN and starting over,
- 31:04Speaker 18: which he has done with a.
- 31:05Speaker 15: Very successful podcast.
- 31:07Speaker 18: I love that she's coming out Doc Rivers crying remember
- 31:09Speaker 18: that a few years ago, you know, saying you're they're
- 31:13Speaker 18: trying to kill us all? Or why does our country
- 31:16Speaker 18: hate country hate me? Meanwhile, Doc Rivers is doing pretty
- 31:19Speaker 18: good in his country ever since he won one championship,
- 31:22Speaker 18: He's gotten like six separate jobs while starring in the NBA,
- 31:25Speaker 18: whilst we're leaning back on a broadcasting career that's always
- 31:29Speaker 18: been waiting for him.
- 31:30Speaker 8: I don't know why he hates the country, good question.
- 31:32Speaker 8: Usually the people that are the loudest lately are the
- 31:35Speaker 8: ones doing the best. It's hard to explain. Brian, kill me,
- 31:39Speaker 8: but it happens. Happens to me the truth. So I'm
- 31:42Speaker 8: all over the place with Bruce Blakeman these days. You
- 31:44Speaker 8: live in Nassau County, Brian, I know you love Bruce.
- 31:47Speaker 8: And I actually was there on Long Island last week
- 31:49Speaker 8: when President Trump came to town. It was amazing. I even
- 31:52Speaker 8: made a trip that night with Bruce to the Hamptons
- 31:55Speaker 8: where he had this big fundraiser with Stevie Whitcoffe. It
- 31:57Speaker 8: was great. He's doing a tremendous job. And now Kathy
- 32:00Speaker 8: Hokel is feeling the pressure. How do I know that
- 32:03Speaker 8: Today's New York Times Kathy Hokel is actually critical of Mamdani.
- 32:09Speaker 8: Now we know the truth is Kathy Hochl is scared
- 32:12Speaker 8: to death of Mamdani, scared to death of them. In fact,
- 32:16Speaker 8: all these Democrats are from Chuck Schumer, you name it.
- 32:19Speaker 8: They're all scared of Mamdanni, who's enjoying your vacation this week.
- 32:22Speaker 8: But Hochel comes out and says the mayor should really
- 32:26Speaker 8: focus on New York.
- 32:28Speaker 15: And not on Israel.
- 32:30Speaker 8: Duh, But how about that, hkl clearly Brian Kilmead feeling
- 32:34Speaker 8: the pressure.
- 32:34Speaker 18: I love it, and you know, so far it looks
- 32:37Speaker 18: like the Ciana pol which leans left. We all know
- 32:39Speaker 18: that said Bruce is within ten points, and it's even
- 32:43Speaker 18: better than Zelden was doing it a similar time. He
- 32:45Speaker 18: ended up losing by six. Remember this is what gives
- 32:47Speaker 18: me hope for Bruce Blakeman, because do you remember the
- 32:52Speaker 18: reason why Joe Biden did okay during the mid terms.
- 32:55Speaker 18: It was the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and he
- 32:57Speaker 18: just militarized all these pro choice, pro abortion people so quickly.
- 33:02Speaker 18: You know, Zelden's pro life and that was an issue,
- 33:04Speaker 18: and that was a hot issue. But Bruce Blakeman is
- 33:08Speaker 18: not a big pro life guy. He's a pro choice guy,
- 33:10Speaker 18: and it's not a hot issue. That's not even a
- 33:12Speaker 18: top ten issue right now, So we can actually focus
- 33:15Speaker 18: on the issues it matter did you see the other
- 33:17Speaker 18: story about Morgan Stanley. We're losing four eight hundred financial jobs.
- 33:22Speaker 8: Out of New York.
- 33:23Speaker 18: They just bought a building in Dallas, so we're losing
- 33:26Speaker 18: more and more of other things that New York was
- 33:29Speaker 18: identified with the financial capital of the world. They're saying,
- 33:32Speaker 18: not at this price, because the people here on entry
- 33:35Speaker 18: level salaries can't afford to live here, and the prices
- 33:38Speaker 18: aren't going down and the quality of living is not
- 33:41Speaker 18: going up. So that's not a combination where you say
- 33:45Speaker 18: just more of the same. I actually think that Mormon
- 33:48Speaker 18: Dami continues with his grocery stores and his lack of
- 33:52Speaker 18: free busses. Now they're saying they're looking to subsidize other
- 33:56Speaker 18: people's supermarkets and small business that are affected by his
- 34:01Speaker 18: ridiculous government subsidize grocery stores. Wait, so you're paying other
- 34:07Speaker 18: people for and then you're paying way too much for
- 34:10Speaker 18: a supermarket. Where are we getting this money?
- 34:12Speaker 8: We don't have it. That's the bottom line. I was
- 34:14Speaker 8: actually gonna make a joke before you got to that.
- 34:16Speaker 8: Who is going to Dallas in two weeks? Sid Rosenberg
- 34:19Speaker 8: and Morgan Stanley. But we got this huge convention coming up.
- 34:23Speaker 8: President Trump talked about it on Truth Social a couple
- 34:25Speaker 8: of days ago, and look, we got to win the midterms.
- 34:28Speaker 8: That's the bottom line. So while people are really caught
- 34:30Speaker 8: up in gas prices and oil in this iron conflict,
- 34:34Speaker 8: which again I hate to argue with Kat mcfalllan, which
- 34:36Speaker 8: I'm gonna do letter on this morning, but it ain't working.
- 34:39Speaker 8: But he's saying, wait a second, look at the economy.
- 34:42Speaker 8: I just had doctor Oz on this show, Brian, right
- 34:44Speaker 8: before you came on, prescription drug prices at an all
- 34:48Speaker 8: time low. We haven't seen these prices in sixty plus years, right, Eggs, eggs, eggs, well,
- 34:55Speaker 8: legs are down. Implation is way down from where it
- 34:58Speaker 8: was with Joe Biden. Have started to come down. So
- 35:02Speaker 8: the President is going to make a pretty good argument
- 35:05Speaker 8: that while you're complaining about gasoline prices, I get it.
- 35:09Speaker 8: Actually the economic indicators say we're doing a pretty good job.
- 35:12Speaker 8: I think that'll be his main message commit terms. What
- 35:15Speaker 8: do you think? Yeah? I think so too.
- 35:17Speaker 18: I also think you know they say Walmart drop prices,
- 35:20Speaker 18: and I think gas is still under how Joe Biden
- 35:23Speaker 18: left it. I think the President could say that while
- 35:25Speaker 18: addressing the number one threat we have outside China, certainly
- 35:30Speaker 18: in the Middle East, and that is Iran. It's an
- 35:32Speaker 18: ongoing mission, the only one to take on an issue
- 35:34Speaker 18: that's been around for forty seven years. And I think
- 35:37Speaker 18: the President's going to say, not only what am I doing.
- 35:39Speaker 18: For example, I started looking into how close we are
- 35:43Speaker 18: to get into this trade deal done with Canada. I'm
- 35:46Speaker 18: looking at just trying to get some numbers down and
- 35:47Speaker 18: figure out my head around what's going on there, because
- 35:49Speaker 18: they're optimistic they're gonna get something done. Well, we have
- 35:52Speaker 18: moved Honda as well as Ford as well as Stilantis
- 35:57Speaker 18: has moved out of Canada into the US because the tariffs,
- 36:01Speaker 18: bringing some of it back into Michigan. So that's going
- 36:04Speaker 18: to help Mike Rogers and that that's a fact. I
- 36:07Speaker 18: think the President should emphasize the tariffs. Yeah, sometimes they're costly,
- 36:10Speaker 18: but other times, long term, they're bringing a lot of
- 36:13Speaker 18: jobs back here in industry back here. I think they're
- 36:16Speaker 18: going to look back said and we were just in
- 36:19Speaker 18: high school and maybe beginning of college. All that thought
- 36:22Speaker 18: when they're Clinton and Bush forty one and Reagan of
- 36:25Speaker 18: moving industry out because Americans didn't want to do the
- 36:28Speaker 18: manufacturing and let these you know, let the Southeast Asians
- 36:32Speaker 18: and let the Middle Eastern and let Central America make
- 36:34Speaker 18: our stuff. And China most of all, was the biggest
- 36:38Speaker 18: mistake ever. It hollowed out Middle America. It hollowed out
- 36:42Speaker 18: North Carolina furniture makers. And what Trump is trying to do,
- 36:46Speaker 18: and it's not the sexiest thing you can work on,
- 36:49Speaker 18: is bring manufacturing back and do it in a you know,
- 36:53Speaker 18: in a high tech way and an affordable way where
- 36:56Speaker 18: the American people say, well, now, all of a sudden,
- 36:57Speaker 18: my kitchen tables is twice as but at least an
- 37:00Speaker 18: American made it. He's trying to bring it back and
- 37:03Speaker 18: keep the prices down. So that's admirable. But most politicians
- 37:08Speaker 18: would not try it. But a businessman thinking long term,
- 37:12Speaker 18: bigger than his one term that's left, would be doing that. Now,
- 37:17Speaker 18: how he works that into a speech that would be
- 37:20Speaker 18: his challenge. But I think we're as Americans, we're sophisticated
- 37:23Speaker 18: enough to pick it up and understand that we got
- 37:25Speaker 18: to start making stuff here. The pandemic reminded us of that,
- 37:28Speaker 18: but no doubt about it. Pharmaceutical prices huge and if
- 37:32Speaker 18: you want anyone to rationalize it and define it Mark Cuban.
- 37:38Speaker 18: Mark Cuban said, this is unbelievable what they're doing.
- 37:40Speaker 7: He called up.
- 37:41Speaker 18: Trump, even though he campaigned with Kamala and said, I
- 37:44Speaker 18: got a similar private company.
- 37:46Speaker 8: Do you think we can combine it?
- 37:47Speaker 18: And he said yes, come on in and they had
- 37:48Speaker 18: a press conference together. So there's a lot of things
- 37:52Speaker 18: going on that you're not going to get in the
- 37:53Speaker 18: New York Times a CNN, but you'll get on your
- 37:55Speaker 18: show on our show.
- 37:57Speaker 8: Last one before we get to what's happening on Sunday night,
- 37:59Speaker 8: on your own amazing show. You know, I'm very, very
- 38:02Speaker 8: close with Congressman Randy Fine and he had that race
- 38:05Speaker 8: against that real jew hater, real low life Dan Bill's
- 38:08Speaker 8: Aarian and Randy killed him Byron Donald's looks like he
- 38:11Speaker 8: may may. He's got Jolly Jolly's not going to be easy,
- 38:14Speaker 8: but he may continue a string a big time Republican
- 38:17Speaker 8: governors down there, Rick Scott and Toronto Santis. For the
- 38:21Speaker 8: most part, Florida played out well for the country outside
- 38:25Speaker 8: of one cycle one lunatic Angie Nixon winning in the
- 38:29Speaker 8: northern part of the state, but Florida played out pretty well.
- 38:33Speaker 8: You feel pretty good about the future, or he's still
- 38:37Speaker 8: terrified about these DSA candidates that do win occasionally across America.
- 38:43Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean they can win primaries across America, and
- 38:46Speaker 18: they can win in New York City, but man, I
- 38:49Speaker 18: don't think they're winning in Michigan. I know they're not
- 38:52Speaker 18: winning in Florida. And Dave Jolly and Tom Twazi and
- 38:56Speaker 18: Laura Gillen coming out saying having these press conference, God,
- 38:58Speaker 18: I am not a socialist, do not label me that.
- 39:01Speaker 18: And they're getting aggressive. Why because their internal show. Everyone's
- 39:04Speaker 18: being labeled because Trump is such a great marketer, and
- 39:08Speaker 18: he's telling everybody, unless you come up and speak up
- 39:10Speaker 18: and stand out and condemn, you're a communist until further notice.
- 39:15Speaker 18: So I don't you know, I think this woman is
- 39:17Speaker 18: going to get blown out in Florida Byron. Donald's just
- 39:19Speaker 18: got to stay strong. He stands for everything that DeSantis does.
- 39:22Speaker 18: But believe or not, he has not gotten the DeSantis
- 39:25Speaker 18: endorsement yet, So I find that shocking. Dave Jolly's a
- 39:28Speaker 18: fake Democrat. He's not a Democrat. Dave Jolly's just anti Trump.
- 39:32Speaker 15: So he got elected.
- 39:33Speaker 2: Trump hated him.
- 39:34Speaker 18: He took on Trump, and he decided to quit the
- 39:36Speaker 18: business and go on MSNBC and criticize and criticize Trump.
- 39:39Speaker 18: Now he's running for office again. They all try to
- 39:41Speaker 18: do that because people of Florida too smart. Donald's is
- 39:44Speaker 18: pretty strong. He's great on his feet. I think he's
- 39:46Speaker 18: going to be great. By the way, sid, how many
- 39:49Speaker 18: glowing articles would we see if Byron Donalds was Democrat,
- 39:53Speaker 18: If John James was a Democrat. African Americans going for
- 39:56Speaker 18: governors in their state at the same time. And by
- 39:59Speaker 18: the way, U John James is within three points in Michigan.
- 40:02Speaker 18: Fantastic guy, west Point grad, got great business background, successful congressman.
- 40:07Speaker 8: These would be.
- 40:08Speaker 18: Two great stories, but nobody's talking about it.
- 40:10Speaker 19: No.
- 40:10Speaker 18: I know, I don't think color your skin should matter,
- 40:12Speaker 18: and I hopefully we don't talk about the religion or skin.
- 40:15Speaker 18: But right now in America they still talk about breakthroughs
- 40:19Speaker 18: all the time. So while they're doing it, at least
- 40:21Speaker 18: notice that Byron Donald's is not from Sweden.
- 40:25Speaker 8: It's funny he's not from Sweden. It's clear why DeSantis
- 40:29Speaker 8: hasn't endorsed them, because Byron Donalds is a president Trump guy.
- 40:33Speaker 8: Trump and DeSantis do not get along. In fact, I
- 40:36Speaker 8: had Byron Donald's on this show last week, and he
- 40:38Speaker 8: kept referring to the great job that Rick Scott did,
- 40:42Speaker 8: and he blamed a lot of the insurance issues which
- 40:45Speaker 8: is a very big problem in Florida on Ron DeSantis.
- 40:48Speaker 8: So again, Donald's is with Trump, Trump is not with DeSantis.
- 40:54Speaker 8: That explains why Donalds has not gotten the DeSantis endorsement
- 40:58Speaker 8: just yet. All Right, Day's away, Brian kill mead, best
- 41:01Speaker 8: show on cable, Your show, ten pm every Sunday night.
- 41:05Speaker 8: So I'm a frequent guys. I used to be one nation.

- 41:11Speaker 8: What what's going on this Sunday night? All right?
- 41:13Speaker 18: First off, education is getting huge ratings. This guy, Jason
- 41:16Speaker 18: Horvat says, if your go to if you're sending your
- 41:19Speaker 18: kid to school, pen and paper. Do not use a laptop,
- 41:23Speaker 18: do not use a chromebook, do not use an iPad.
- 41:25Speaker 18: Pen and paper. They say, we're not memorizing by cutting
- 41:29Speaker 18: and pasting and typing.
- 41:30Speaker 7: He's got the stats to prove it.
- 41:32Speaker 15: He's going to be talking about that.
- 41:33Speaker 7: Also.
- 41:35Speaker 18: Also, when you take notes, it's got to be on
- 41:37Speaker 18: it with a pen and paper. Don't record it, don't
- 41:41Speaker 18: type it. That's what you need. And also you can't
- 41:44Speaker 18: even they don't even want to do what I do.
- 41:45Speaker 18: They don't want you reading a book on your laptop.
- 41:49Speaker 18: They say your mind cannot comprehend. They need to see
- 41:51Speaker 18: it on a page. He's got the stats to prove it.
- 41:54Speaker 18: It's fascinating. He testified in front of Congress too about
- 41:56Speaker 18: how we got to go back to the future in
- 41:58Speaker 18: terms of education. I also got Governor Perry pushing back
- 42:02Speaker 18: on the condemnation of these data center. Nobody wants a
- 42:06Speaker 18: data center now, Okay, get ready to pay a lot
- 42:09Speaker 18: more for your phone service, for your cloud service, get
- 42:11Speaker 18: ready for a very slow internet, and also get ready
- 42:14Speaker 18: to subscribe to some Chinese apps when it comes to AI.
- 42:17Speaker 18: You can't have it both ways, and we'll talk about that.
- 42:20Speaker 18: I also got Joe Manchin coming on Lydia moynihan, who
- 42:23Speaker 18: I think you have on too on a regular basis,
- 42:26Speaker 18: and major John Spencer, urban warfare expert. He's going to
- 42:30Speaker 18: say talk about how he's been to Gazam multiple times.
- 42:34Speaker 18: There is nothing that says genocide there. He's been in
- 42:37Speaker 18: the tunnels, he said, with the IDF has done in
- 42:41Speaker 18: dropping flyers and clearing out neighborhoods before going in for
- 42:45Speaker 18: Hamas has been even better than we were doing in Iraq.
- 42:50Speaker 18: And he talks about that in his brand new book,
- 42:52Speaker 18: and he's going to be on the set with us
- 42:53Speaker 18: and talk about how wead there the winning ways in Iran,
- 42:56Speaker 18: which you should be looking at because we have to
- 42:58Speaker 18: win in Iran, no.
- 43:00Speaker 8: Doubt about it. Could you make sure that Tucker crawls
- 43:02Speaker 8: in and Candae Owens and Megan Kelly and all these
- 43:05Speaker 8: geniuses watch that segment about how Israel is not committing genocide. Yeah,
- 43:10Speaker 8: we know about genocide. That was the Holocaust. We were
- 43:13Speaker 8: the victims about ninety years ago. On the way out, Brian,
- 43:17Speaker 8: I know you got that big night coming up. I'll
- 43:19Speaker 8: be on stage. I can't wait October on Long Island.

- 46:23Speaker 21: Bill O'Reilly here and I'm warming up standby for the
- 46:27Speaker 21: O'Reilly update morning edition. But first, you have heard me
- 46:31Speaker 21: talk about All Family Pharmacy before, and there's a reason.
- 46:36Speaker 21: They make it easy to get everyday prescriptions and medications.
- 46:41Speaker 21: Their licensed physicians handle the prescription process if appropriate. And
- 46:46Speaker 21: what really stands out is there customer service. When you call,
- 46:50Speaker 21: you talk to a real person who can actually help you.
- 46:54Speaker 21: So please don't wait visit All Family Pharmacy on his Friday.
- 47:02Speaker 21: I'm thinking about the collapse of the corporate media. The
- 47:07Speaker 21: big bias these days is not misstatements. It's not journalists
- 47:13Speaker 21: telling you something that isn't true, though they will do that.
- 47:19Speaker 21: The ruse is to ignore any reports that portray the
- 47:24Speaker 21: Republicans of Donald Trump in a positive light. The media
- 47:29Speaker 21: also refuses to cover anything negative about the Democrats. Here's
- 47:35Speaker 21: a good example, the horrendous executive order issued by Massachusetts
- 47:41Speaker 21: Governor Moore Healey that allows doctors to actually kill babies
- 47:49Speaker 21: on the birthing table. That story was not covered by
- 47:53Speaker 21: any major outlet that we can find. The same for
- 47:58Speaker 21: the Minnesota front situation. A guy on YouTube, not even
- 48:05Speaker 21: an employed journalist, expose that mess, and the press paid
- 48:12Speaker 21: scant attention. They did not want to report the story
- 48:18Speaker 21: of Minnesota fraud. There is a media blackout that favors
- 48:23Speaker 21: progressives and Democrats. Everybody knows that it's obvious. Not only
- 48:29Speaker 21: is that dishonest, but it's really bad for the republic.
- 48:36Speaker 21: The American people need honest information.
- 48:42Speaker 2: Back in a moment.
- 48:43Speaker 21: Thieves are using AI to steal from you. With forged
- 48:49Speaker 21: paperwork and a signiture, they can claim control of your

- 49:27Speaker 8: Oh I didn't buy.
- 49:28Speaker 22: A little help from my friends.

- 50:05Speaker 22: This would be nice. You close the don't what stay
- 50:12Speaker 22: with me? And it'd be so.
- 50:15Speaker 23: Easy to tell you what stay.
- 50:21Speaker 8: Like a don so many time.
- 50:29Speaker 20: Don't fall in love with a dream goe alltick me
- 50:41Speaker 20: just when you think you prevent changed, Really you don't
- 50:54Speaker 20: fall up with that table cos.
- 51:15Speaker 8: Good. This one always gets to me. I love this song.
- 51:25Speaker 8: Kenny Rogers, the late Kenny Rogers and the great Kim Carns,
- 51:29Speaker 8: Betty Davis eyes. Don't fall in love with the dreamer,
- 51:35Speaker 8: And this could be a great morning because Louis tells
- 51:37Speaker 8: me that today you said it's Kenny Rogers' birthday, right.
- 51:40Speaker 7: Yeah, I kind of almost dreaded it.
- 51:42Speaker 8: Text so you can so you know there are two
- 51:45Speaker 8: more songs you have to play. Okay, I know I'm down.
- 51:48Speaker 8: Don't get you down. Oh my god, I was so
- 51:52Speaker 8: happy to hear this song. You have no idea.
- 51:54Speaker 7: I turned to Justin. I said, I'm actually dreading the next.
- 51:58Speaker 8: Of course, because look how gay. I know he's so gay.

- 53:28Speaker 8: i am. But they're very impressive. One point four. But
- 53:32Speaker 8: I do want to thank Rivka's sons who wrote a
- 53:35Speaker 8: story about me. She interviewed me last week. Now, there
- 53:37Speaker 8: are stories written about me every day. I'm not exaggerating.
- 53:41Speaker 8: You don't know anybody like me outside of Trump. You
- 53:43Speaker 8: don't know anybody like me. There are stories written about
- 53:47Speaker 8: me every day all over the world. Eat on, I'm
- 53:51Speaker 8: not kidding you. Sometimes they're nice. Most of the time
- 53:54Speaker 8: they're not. But this girl, Rivka interviewed me last week.
- 53:58Speaker 8: It's in the Jewish link and Rio said that to
- 54:01Speaker 8: me in Jersey yesterday, and I gave it to Danielle
- 54:04Speaker 8: and my son and it was so beautiful. And the
- 54:09Speaker 8: name of it is we did it Dad, which refers
- 54:13Speaker 8: to what I said when I found out at three
- 54:15Speaker 8: o'clock in the morning Israel time that I made the
- 54:19Speaker 8: Hall of Fame. We did it that. But it goes
- 54:21Speaker 8: on to talk about a whole variety of issues and
- 54:23Speaker 8: including me possibly running fam mayor and the political scene
- 54:26Speaker 8: here in New York and across the country and around
- 54:28Speaker 8: the world. So VKA, thank you for that and talking

- 1:02:02Speaker 8: It wasn't nearly as popular as beef steaks.
- 1:02:04Speaker 7: There's a couple of them. I got two loaded in
- 1:02:06Speaker 7: beef steaks, right.
- 1:02:08Speaker 8: They kept bringing the beer. It was great.
- 1:02:09Speaker 7: Right, that's it. Now I can go back to campus.
- 1:02:12Speaker 8: How many beef steaks were there? A lot of them?
- 1:02:15Speaker 7: Was a few.
- 1:02:16Speaker 14: I just that was the most convenient one because one
- 1:02:19Speaker 14: for you and fo by Fordham. You walked out Fordham Road,
- 1:02:22Speaker 14: you walked out the entrance of Fordham right you went
- 1:02:24Speaker 14: up about not even a half mile was right there.
- 1:02:27Speaker 8: Yeah, we flew.
- 1:02:28Speaker 7: Webster Avenue before, right before the Metro North.
- 1:02:31Speaker 8: State gotcha after it and again mine was Ocean Avenue
- 1:02:35Speaker 8: right by. Jeep said bay that was great, and then
- 1:02:38Speaker 8: I just want a couple of blocks to captain Walters.
- 1:02:40Speaker 8: But the Wheelers, which my buddy Mike still owns and
- 1:02:44Speaker 8: really tied it on. It was good stuff. What I
- 1:02:46Speaker 8: was fun. Joanne Ariola happens to be our council woman
- 1:02:50Speaker 8: where I live in lou lives out there in Queen's.
- 1:02:54Speaker 8: She does a spectacular job and there's a whole bunch

- 1:03:00Speaker 8: welcome back to sitting friends in the morning. How are you.
- 1:03:03Speaker 6: I'm great and it's so great to be back.
- 1:03:05Speaker 9: Thank you, sid Nah, You're welcome.
- 1:03:07Speaker 8: Sweet look for starters. I got a picture last night
- 1:03:11Speaker 8: as I was listening to loud thunder and watching lightning
- 1:03:15Speaker 8: and watching my daughter's bedroom leak again of a tornado
- 1:03:20Speaker 8: in the waters right on neighborhood. What a hectic couple
- 1:03:24Speaker 8: of hours last night. Is there a lot of damage
- 1:03:27Speaker 8: this morning, there's a lot of damage.
- 1:03:30Speaker 6: And the tornado actually was in various portions of the
- 1:03:33Speaker 6: district and on into Long Island, over an Atlantic beach.
- 1:03:37Speaker 6: It wiped out the Sun and Serf Beach Club. But
- 1:03:40Speaker 6: one of the biggest tornados was right behind my office,
- 1:03:43Speaker 6: you know where that is on Beach one twelve Street
- 1:03:45Speaker 6: offs on Beach Channel Drive, right behind that, and a
- 1:03:49Speaker 6: friend of mine was out there taking a video of it.
- 1:03:52Speaker 6: I guess he's a tornado chaser and sent it over.
- 1:03:55Speaker 6: But it took your breath away because this is not
- 1:03:58Speaker 6: something that we're accustomed to. Significant damage.
- 1:04:01Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that one point nine, which is the
- 1:04:04Speaker 8: one commercial block with all those great restaurants, the Sorrentina's
- 1:04:07Speaker 8: and Pico and Cali's and all those great spot My
- 1:04:11Speaker 8: buddy Robbie Soascido's place, they lost power right.
- 1:04:14Speaker 6: Yes, and there was powered oudeas that were trees down.
- 1:04:18Speaker 9: It was.
- 1:04:19Speaker 6: It was a terrible and it lasted a significant amount
- 1:04:22Speaker 6: of time. That was the other thing. I had just
- 1:04:25Speaker 6: actually left the peninsula and within fifteen minutes of reaching
- 1:04:29Speaker 6: the mainland, I was starting to get videos.
- 1:04:32Speaker 8: Wow, you know one story before we get to the
- 1:04:34Speaker 8: AMS stuff that brought up yesterday, which I know you
- 1:04:36Speaker 8: really care about because you're a great American, and that
- 1:04:39Speaker 8: is this story about this big to do at Ferry
- 1:04:44Speaker 8: Hawk Stadium, which we own, John Katzmatiti's on Staten Island,
- 1:04:47Speaker 8: where the FDNY is going to have this gathering of
- 1:04:52Speaker 8: victims family as ship member family members are victims who
- 1:04:56Speaker 8: were killed nine to eleven going out there to speak
- 1:04:59Speaker 8: and I believe it today before the actual nine to
- 1:05:01Speaker 8: eleven date, and they expect it to be about four
- 1:05:03Speaker 8: hours long. And as it turns out, the Mayor's office
- 1:05:07Speaker 8: got involved and the fire commissioner Lilyan something or rather
- 1:05:10Speaker 8: I don't care, and they cut it from four hours
- 1:05:13Speaker 8: to two hours. They're making the family members of the
- 1:05:17Speaker 8: victims record their messages so the mayor will have more
- 1:05:23Speaker 8: time to speak live. I mean, I'm bending over backwards,
- 1:05:25Speaker 8: and you are too, Joanne, with people like Giovanni Galante
- 1:05:28Speaker 8: to keep the mayor away from the sacred soil of
- 1:05:32Speaker 8: the Freedom Tower nine to eleven. And now this guy
- 1:05:35Speaker 8: is making sure that that ceremony on Staten Island's going
- 1:05:38Speaker 8: to be cut short so he can speak is that right?
- 1:05:43Speaker 6: So it's not right at all. That's a ceremony that
- 1:05:45Speaker 6: should go on as planned. But let's just try to
- 1:05:48Speaker 6: put it into context. He wants everyone else's statement to
- 1:05:52Speaker 6: be on video, but his is live, I imagine, and will
- 1:05:57Speaker 6: be longer. Why because he cannot face those people. He
- 1:06:00Speaker 6: cannot face the people who lost loved ones in nine
- 1:06:03Speaker 6: to eleven. He knows he doesn't belong there. He knows
- 1:06:06Speaker 6: they're going to turn their backs on him. He doesn't
- 1:06:08Speaker 6: want to hear the booze. This is a very thin
- 1:06:11Speaker 6: skinned mayor, so he will orchestrate an event that makes
- 1:06:16Speaker 6: him look like a hero. He will never be a hero.
- 1:06:19Speaker 8: Oh god, he's a low life. Andy, do you want
- 1:06:21Speaker 8: to comment, I killed her yesterday, But you don't have
- 1:06:23Speaker 8: to if you don't want to, you have to work
- 1:06:25Speaker 8: with her. But I killed her yesterday. Julie Menin, you're
- 1:06:28Speaker 8: speaker coming out and saying that the mayor deserves to
- 1:06:30Speaker 8: be there. Why? Why you know the mayor he's got
- 1:06:33Speaker 8: to absolutely, he's got to balance the budget. He's got
- 1:06:35Speaker 8: to run the police department. He's got job description things
- 1:06:39Speaker 8: he's got to do. There's nothing in the mayor's job
- 1:06:42Speaker 8: description that says he needs to be there nine to eleven,
- 1:06:45Speaker 8: And don't tell me every other mayor has been there.
- 1:06:47Speaker 8: Every other mayor doesn't hang out with Ussan Piker. So
- 1:06:50Speaker 8: what did you think about Menin's comments?
- 1:06:53Speaker 6: I honestly didn't take the speaker's comments to heart. I
- 1:06:58Speaker 6: only take to heart the comments from the family members
- 1:07:02Speaker 6: who lost their loved ones. That's the only opinion that
- 1:07:05Speaker 6: mr answer. Not anybody who's on television saying, oh, well,
- 1:07:09Speaker 6: he's the mayor and we all know who was saying that,
- 1:07:12Speaker 6: or anyone else who's putting this on Facebook. The people
- 1:07:15Speaker 6: who lost their loved ones don't want him there, and
- 1:07:18Speaker 6: that's enough of a reason for me to not want
- 1:07:20Speaker 6: him there.
- 1:07:20Speaker 8: The overwhelming majority. But that was a great answer. You're
- 1:07:22Speaker 8: good at this, you know that you're in. You're not bad.
- 1:07:24Speaker 8: Maybe shran for office one day. I saw this. They
- 1:07:28Speaker 8: give it a try, Yeah, give it a try. Your
- 1:07:31Speaker 8: friend Phillis Intuello, who's also a terrific sent me the
- 1:07:34Speaker 8: story New York City nine to one one system glitch
- 1:07:38Speaker 8: block nearly seventeen hundred This can't be right. Seventeen hundred
- 1:07:42Speaker 8: emergency calls for seven hours. That can't be right? Is
- 1:07:47Speaker 8: that right?
- 1:07:48Speaker 6: Oh, it's right, Oh, it's right. Seven hours. So there
- 1:07:52Speaker 6: is a unit in it's a facility in the Bronx
- 1:07:57Speaker 6: called PSAC two. It's the Public Safety Answering System, and
- 1:08:02Speaker 6: it is one of the few centers that are run
- 1:08:05Speaker 6: by the Mayor's Office of Technology and Innovation, not the NYPD.
- 1:08:09Speaker 6: And it had a major breakdown by three am. People
- 1:08:12Speaker 6: were calling nine one one and they were able to
- 1:08:15Speaker 6: get through, but the operator couldn't hear them, and they
- 1:08:18Speaker 6: couldn't hear the operator. And this goes on for seven hours,
- 1:08:22Speaker 6: seven hours, without notifying a responding agency within his own
- 1:08:26Speaker 6: administration that there is a big a breakdown. So think
- 1:08:31Speaker 6: about it. For seven hours, New Yorkers, some of whom
- 1:08:36Speaker 6: may have been critically ill, did not have a working
- 1:08:40Speaker 6: nine to eleven system to bring them the life saving
- 1:08:43Speaker 6: services that they needed. It was fixed a little after
- 1:08:47Speaker 6: ten am.
- 1:08:49Speaker 26: But here's.
- 1:08:51Speaker 6: Here's where I really it blows my mind even further.
- 1:08:55Speaker 6: It's fixed by ten am, But did decide to at
- 1:08:58Speaker 6: ten am the calls to Brooklyn? Why didn't they route
- 1:09:01Speaker 6: the calls to Brooklyn during those seven hours?
- 1:09:04Speaker 8: Right?
- 1:09:05Speaker 6: They just let it go. They let it go into
- 1:09:07Speaker 6: complete silence, and PD didn't know about it. They realized
- 1:09:12Speaker 6: it about nine am, and FDNY was alerted about twelve pm,
- 1:09:18Speaker 6: which again I will say, it was already rectified because
- 1:09:23Speaker 6: they were getting gd calls for assaults and a battery
- 1:09:27Speaker 6: and mostly to serve persose. Now the agency started to
- 1:09:31Speaker 6: talk to each other and there was complete and utter mayhem,
- 1:09:35Speaker 6: while the Mayor's office remained mum. So is it is
- 1:09:40Speaker 6: that is unaccepted? No?
- 1:09:42Speaker 8: I agree. So is it fair to say when you
- 1:09:45Speaker 8: look at the snowstorms here in New York where people died, Okay,
- 1:09:49Speaker 8: it's not a job. People died. Okay. You look at
- 1:09:51Speaker 8: the streets of New York City and the garbage is
- 1:09:55Speaker 8: piled so high every Sunday night every Monday morning that
- 1:09:59Speaker 8: it's real disgusting. Is it fair to say that this one,
- 1:10:03Speaker 8: like the others, falls on the mayor?
- 1:10:06Speaker 6: It all falls on the mayor. Every agency and whether
- 1:10:10Speaker 6: they're doing a good job or a bad job, falls
- 1:10:13Speaker 6: on the mayor. But what I found so interesting I
- 1:10:16Speaker 6: saw in one of the news channels last night. I
- 1:10:18Speaker 6: had been interviewed by Channel two News on a different topic,
- 1:10:23Speaker 6: but at the end the commentator started to talk about
- 1:10:27Speaker 6: this nine to one one breakdown, and the commentator said
- 1:10:30Speaker 6: that when they called the mayor's office, they blamed it
- 1:10:34Speaker 6: on Motorola, who is their provider. Now this has become
- 1:10:38Speaker 6: such standard operating procedure for the mayor. He is guilty
- 1:10:41Speaker 6: of nothing.
- 1:10:42Speaker 8: True.
- 1:10:43Speaker 6: He's the golden child, and his mom and dad told
- 1:10:45Speaker 6: him how great he was.
- 1:10:46Speaker 8: He bought it. He blames that story, and he blames
- 1:10:50Speaker 8: everyone everybody else. That's right, every single issue that happens
- 1:10:55Speaker 8: in this city, which clearly falls under him, he finds
- 1:10:59Speaker 8: a way to aim somebody else. And a lot of times,
- 1:11:02Speaker 8: as you know Joanne and Ariola, he blames his own people.
- 1:11:05Speaker 8: He goes his own people under the bus.
- 1:11:07Speaker 6: Right, He'll take a staffer and throw him under the bus.
- 1:11:10Speaker 6: But you know what, leaders lead from the front, sid
- 1:11:12Speaker 6: and you have to stand there and say, look, we
- 1:11:14Speaker 6: screwed up. But he didn't. He's up in Neanderada at
- 1:11:17Speaker 6: a Rundacks and hiking in the Adaronjacks. So you know what,
- 1:11:20Speaker 6: I say, take a hike, mom, Donnie.
- 1:11:22Speaker 9: Take a hike.
- 1:11:25Speaker 8: That is great. I also say, Mom, Donnie, hijacked nine
- 1:11:29Speaker 8: to eleven, which is you know, a rough word. I know,
- 1:11:31Speaker 8: especially with what the family's went through. But that's what
- 1:11:33Speaker 8: he's done. Take a hike. I really like that one.
- 1:11:36Speaker 8: Tell me about Intro nine to ninety and the Minutes
- 1:11:40Speaker 8: Matter Bill looks like, Joanne, you're going to try to
- 1:11:42Speaker 8: help us with this issue. We just experience. What's always
- 1:11:45Speaker 8: all about it?
- 1:11:46Speaker 9: Yeah?
- 1:11:46Speaker 6: Yeah, it really does lends to the importance of the
- 1:11:49Speaker 6: Minutes Matter Bill because we were getting notifications at our
- 1:11:53Speaker 6: office over the summer that at some point in time,
- 1:11:57Speaker 6: on many occasions, the YPDEMS were holding eight hundred calls,
- 1:12:03Speaker 6: seven hundred calls, six hundred calls, and that's impossible to overcome.
- 1:12:09Speaker 6: And so immediately, you know, you mentioned Phillis. She is
- 1:12:13Speaker 6: an amazing chief of staff, friend, legislator.
- 1:12:17Speaker 9: She writes the legislation.
- 1:12:19Speaker 6: She said, we really need to do something about this.
- 1:12:21Speaker 6: So she got on her computer and she put in
- 1:12:23Speaker 6: a legislation for the Minutes Matter Bill. And what it
- 1:12:26Speaker 6: would do is require the Office of Emergency Management, which
- 1:12:31Speaker 6: our committee also oversees, to issue an emergency notification anytime
- 1:12:36Speaker 6: fdny EMS has more than twenty five pending ambulance dispatches,
- 1:12:41Speaker 6: and that the notification would be on a non emergency
- 1:12:45Speaker 6: resource like the notified NYC that we're always touting. I
- 1:12:50Speaker 6: know that I subscribe to Notify NYC on Facebook and
- 1:12:54Speaker 6: on on X and it is very informative. And if
- 1:12:59Speaker 6: the if the calls go up over six hundred to
- 1:13:04Speaker 6: seven hundred, then it becomes a state of emergency and
- 1:13:07Speaker 6: then you will see it on your TV, on your radio,
- 1:13:10Speaker 6: on your phones where we get those state of emergency
- 1:13:13Speaker 6: alerts if there is a hurricane or a tornado coming,
- 1:13:17Speaker 6: that that should happen, because not only would it alert you,
- 1:13:21Speaker 6: it would give you options and give you a realistic expectation.
- 1:13:26Speaker 6: I said, how long it would take for an ambulance
- 1:13:29Speaker 6: to get to you if you are a loved one
- 1:13:32Speaker 6: or sick. So you have options then to call over
- 1:13:35Speaker 6: to north Well and get an ambulance, to make the
- 1:13:37Speaker 6: hospital and get an ambulance, call a private ambulance, call
- 1:13:40Speaker 6: your volunteer fire, an ambulance Corps to come and get you.
- 1:13:44Speaker 6: This gives you options so that you're not being thrown
- 1:13:47Speaker 6: in a car like our officer Diller was and he
- 1:13:51Speaker 6: lost his life. And just recently we had two instances
- 1:13:56Speaker 6: where a twenty two year old man who had had
- 1:14:00Speaker 6: an overdose. We're going to wait twenty five minutes for
- 1:14:05Speaker 6: an ambulance and he did not make it. And then
- 1:14:09Speaker 6: another man died in police custody. He was having some
- 1:14:14Speaker 6: type of medical emergency. And this was in the twenty
- 1:14:19Speaker 6: fifth precincts in Harlem, and they called around twelve twenty
- 1:14:22Speaker 6: and it took twenty minutes for an ambulance to get there.
- 1:14:26Speaker 6: When you were having a heart attack, a stroke, or
- 1:14:28Speaker 6: an asthma attack, that means you don't you don't make it,
- 1:14:32Speaker 6: So you know, this type of bill would a hold
- 1:14:37Speaker 6: the EMS accountable and then also give us the knowledge
- 1:14:40Speaker 6: we need to make sure we get our loved ones
- 1:14:42Speaker 6: to a hospital safely. But why do we have these backlogs?
- 1:14:47Speaker 6: That's the even bigger question. Why do we have these
- 1:14:50Speaker 6: backlogs Because the Mayor of New York City does not
- 1:14:53Speaker 6: want to pay EMS more than eighteen dollars an hour
- 1:14:56Speaker 6: to save your life, so they can't maintain they're members.
- 1:15:02Speaker 6: They immediately go up to Fdmy'll pay people. They It's
- 1:15:07Speaker 6: despicable these guys. They go out every day and save
- 1:15:11Speaker 6: lives for eighteen dollars an hour. So what happens is
- 1:15:14Speaker 6: with the greatest training grounds in the world, we train lifeguards.
- 1:15:18Speaker 6: They go to Nassau County and they go to the
- 1:15:20Speaker 6: National Park Service. We train EMS workers, they go to
- 1:15:23Speaker 6: fire department, or they go out to Nassa County where
- 1:15:25Speaker 6: they'll get paid more money, or up to Westchester. We
- 1:15:29Speaker 6: need to pay our EMS workers more money so that
- 1:15:31Speaker 6: we're not down in staffing. We need to pay them
- 1:15:34Speaker 6: so they will make it their career and that they
- 1:15:37Speaker 6: will have retention. And additionally, we have to make sure
- 1:15:40Speaker 6: that the ambulances are working properly. We're understaffed at the
- 1:15:44Speaker 6: maintenance yard. These ambulances sometimes don't work. You can put
- 1:15:48Speaker 6: fifteen ambulances out on a night and only one is working.
- 1:15:51Speaker 6: And we're working on something on something right now. But
- 1:15:55Speaker 6: to get back to the nine to one one calls.
- 1:15:57Speaker 6: This calls for city council hearing. And I had a
- 1:16:01Speaker 6: conversation with Speakerman in and we will be doing in
- 1:16:03Speaker 6: the early in early September, a joint hearing Fire and
- 1:16:08Speaker 6: Emergency Management, public Safety, government ops, and technology will do
- 1:16:13Speaker 6: a public will do a joint hearing. And asked the
- 1:16:17Speaker 6: Mayor's Office of Technology and Innovation to be there and said,
- 1:16:22Speaker 6: let's hope they show up.
- 1:16:23Speaker 8: I doubt it. We just had a big city Council
- 1:16:26Speaker 8: media a couple of days ago on that second home tax.
- 1:16:28Speaker 8: And I know the mayor's on vacation, but not one rep,
- 1:16:31Speaker 8: not one rep from his office showed up. And I
- 1:16:34Speaker 8: know you did a great job in Frank Morano when
- 1:16:37Speaker 8: Ino Vernon covol you guys, and Vicky hamp David Kahn hammered,
- 1:16:42Speaker 8: hammered the mayor's office. But the coward that he is.
- 1:16:46Speaker 8: Nobody from his office was there. Nobody.
- 1:16:49Speaker 6: It's disgraceful. We are a legislative body, we're an oversight body.
- 1:16:55Speaker 6: And yet he sent a five page document that was
- 1:17:00Speaker 6: read into the record.
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: Defintely.
- 1:17:04Speaker 6: I would not have read it into the record. I
- 1:17:06Speaker 6: would have filed it, yep, and that would have been it.
- 1:17:09Speaker 6: And it would have been, however many hours that lasted.
- 1:17:12Speaker 6: It would have been an absolute condemnation session of how
- 1:17:17Speaker 6: the mayor is running this city. So you cannot be
- 1:17:21Speaker 6: behind the curtain and run this city. You have to
- 1:17:24Speaker 6: be there. You have to answer. And because they did
- 1:17:27Speaker 6: not send anybody and they just sent a statement to me,
- 1:17:30Speaker 6: it meant that they could not defend their actions.
- 1:17:33Speaker 8: Correct. Guilty, guilty, That's what it meant. Love the guys
- 1:17:35Speaker 8: at Jerakoff. I hate to use that word, but you
- 1:17:37Speaker 8: live in Howard Beach. The guys at jerkof Joanne, I
- 1:17:42Speaker 8: love you, I do. I think you're terrific. I really

- 1:19:37Speaker 11: the Cross Island, some slow traffic there, and again that
- 1:19:39Speaker 11: is simply because of an earlier accident which has now
- 1:19:42Speaker 11: been cleared away right at Belmont Park. But still a

- 1:21:07Speaker 27: Good morning, I'm John Terrett. The national debt now more
- 1:21:09Speaker 27: than forty trillion dollars. Treasury says the figure was to
- 1:21:12Speaker 27: pass on Tuesday that's earlier than expected, in part because
- 1:21:15Speaker 27: of the billions not realized because some of President Trump's
- 1:21:18Speaker 27: tariffs were invalidated by the courts. Bond yields rose again yesterday.
- 1:21:21Speaker 27: That means prices down, and that is despite Treasury intervention
- 1:21:24Speaker 27: on Wednesday to try and reverse that situation. At the
- 1:21:27Speaker 27: end of the Thursday session, that Dow, the NASDAK, and
- 1:21:29Speaker 27: the SMP were all in the red. The Dow was
- 1:21:30Speaker 27: down more than one percent, Oil was rising, Brent at
- 1:21:33Speaker 27: ninety three dollars a barrel, WTI eighty eight, and Thropics
- 1:21:36Speaker 27: says it wants to match SpaceX's IPO and it could
- 1:21:39Speaker 27: come to market by the end of the month. Meanwhile,
- 1:21:41Speaker 27: SpaceX shares were down about six or seven percent.
- 1:21:43Speaker 8: Yesterday.
- 1:21:44Speaker 27: Walmart saw the slowest comparable growth in six years. A
- 1:21:47Speaker 27: rare sales miss for the world's biggest storm. Still raised
- 1:21:50Speaker 27: its guidance, though but not as much as Wall Street
- 1:21:52Speaker 27: might have liked, and the stock was down by good
- 1:21:54Speaker 27: ten percent. The Chinese e commerce side Ali Baba net
- 1:21:56Speaker 27: profit down seventy five percent amid heavy spending on AI
- 1:21:59Speaker 27: to the tune of ten billion dollars. Bitcoin was up
- 1:22:02Speaker 27: around seventy two thousand dollars per token. This after President
- 1:22:05Speaker 27: Trump urged passage of the Clarency Act, a casual act
- 1:22:08Speaker 27: for all crypto trading in America, which comes to the

- 1:23:05Speaker 8: Why do you think you've gained this much popularity.
- 1:23:09Speaker 9: Because I'm not afraid to say what needs to be said.
- 1:23:11Speaker 9: There is a place for prayer five times a day,
- 1:23:15Speaker 9: and it's not here. And the reason why I say
- 1:23:18Speaker 9: that is because in the Quran, you sid and myself
- 1:23:22Speaker 9: and every listener is the infidel, and so when you've
- 1:23:25Speaker 9: got a religion, if you want to call it that
- 1:23:28Speaker 9: swearing that you are going to die, you're going to
- 1:23:30Speaker 9: be killed because you're a non believer. That's not a religion.
- 1:23:34Speaker 29: That's a cult.
- 1:23:35Speaker 9: Christianity is what I know. It's built on telling the truths.
- 1:23:38Speaker 9: You're told not to lie, it's a sin. But in
- 1:23:41Speaker 9: the Muslim face, lying is okay. A format Akia is
- 1:23:46Speaker 9: that you can lie all day long if you're you know,
- 1:23:49Speaker 9: pushing forward the Quran, if you're pushing forward Allah, and
- 1:23:53Speaker 9: you know, they'll sit there and tell you that there's
- 1:23:55Speaker 9: seventy two virgins waiting for all them up in heaven.
- 1:23:57Speaker 9: But this is the same religion.
- 1:24:00Speaker 8: Those virgins look like Rosy o'donald just so you know,
- 1:24:01Speaker 8: look ahead.
- 1:24:02Speaker 9: I'm sorry, yeah, but I don't even know if they
- 1:24:05Speaker 9: look like I mean, look, they make their women cover
- 1:24:08Speaker 9: their faces. Women are treated like a second class citizen
- 1:24:11Speaker 9: in that religion. So I look at it and I
- 1:24:14Speaker 9: see it as being antithetical to the United States of
- 1:24:17Speaker 9: America's long term goal, which is freedom for everybody they
- 1:24:20Speaker 9: want to take over. That came from the Islamic world
- 1:24:23Speaker 9: in the Muslim brotherhood, because they figured out the blue print.
- 1:24:27Speaker 9: They figured out you don't take America from bombing planes
- 1:24:31Speaker 9: into buildings, you take it over from within. And so
- 1:24:35Speaker 9: I'm going to continue to fight for the rest of
- 1:24:37Speaker 9: my life to ensure that my kids and my grandkids,
- 1:24:40Speaker 9: and your kids and your grandkids aren't sitting there being
- 1:24:44Speaker 9: victimized to some Islamic nut who's running this country, because
- 1:24:48Speaker 9: that's what's going to happen twenty thirty years from now. Sit.
- 1:24:50Speaker 9: If we stop fighting, you're going to see the President
- 1:24:53Speaker 9: of the United States. Want to change this to the
- 1:24:55Speaker 9: United States of Islam.
- 1:25:09Speaker 8: We're going to see the President of the United States
- 1:25:12Speaker 8: the President of the United States of Islam. I love
- 1:25:17Speaker 8: this song. You may think that's crazy. I don't. There's
- 1:25:22Speaker 8: a reason why that guy gets millions and millions and
- 1:25:26Speaker 8: millions of hits on social media. There is a reason
- 1:25:29Speaker 8: why he and I become good friends, and a reason
- 1:25:31Speaker 8: why he made his debut on this show yesterday. I
- 1:25:34Speaker 8: love the guy. His name is Dennis Michael Lynch. He
- 1:25:37Speaker 8: used to work here in New York City, down by
- 1:25:39Speaker 8: the Stock Exchange, lived out on Long Island, witnessed the
- 1:25:43Speaker 8: buildings come down on nine to eleven, saw what was
- 1:25:47Speaker 8: going on in this city, and he now lives in Florida,
- 1:25:53Speaker 8: like a lot of my friends who had great lives
- 1:25:56Speaker 8: up here in New York, New Jersey who now live
- 1:25:59Speaker 8: in Boca or Layda the hell or they moved west
- 1:26:02Speaker 8: to Tampa Saint Pete and Dennis Michael Lynch is one
- 1:26:05Speaker 8: of them. But man is he popular these days because
- 1:26:08Speaker 8: he's not a faith to tell the truth. And every
- 1:26:10Speaker 8: time one of these lunatic DSAY candidates win, like Angie
- 1:26:15Speaker 8: Nixon did in Florida a couple of days ago, Thank god, Florida,
- 1:26:18Speaker 8: for the most part, did a great job. My two
- 1:26:20Speaker 8: good friends, Randy Fine and Bybrant Donald's winning. But she
- 1:26:23Speaker 8: won Angie Nexon. And you get these psychos like sayat now, look,
- 1:26:27Speaker 8: don't forget they won primaries. You know, people who don't
- 1:26:31Speaker 8: understand politics. They think they won they won primaries. Okay.
- 1:26:35Speaker 8: I don't think Angie Nixon is gonna win in November
- 1:26:39Speaker 8: in Florida. I don't think El Sayed Abdul is gonna
- 1:26:44Speaker 8: beat Mike Rogers in Michigan. Winning a primary is one thing.
- 1:26:48Speaker 8: I haven't won the election. And I do think a
- 1:26:50Speaker 8: lot of these DSA candidates are gonna get their answers.
- 1:26:53Speaker 9: Kid.
- 1:26:54Speaker 8: But my next guest, her daughter is a big time
- 1:26:58Speaker 8: politician down in South Florida. I'm very proud of her,
- 1:27:01Speaker 8: Kat mcfalland, And Kat, do you I think you'd agree
- 1:27:03Speaker 8: that a lot of these candidates, even Nixon down in Florida,
- 1:27:07Speaker 8: they win the primary, yes, but winning the ge that's
- 1:27:11Speaker 8: a whole different story.
- 1:27:13Speaker 6: Well, and they're.
- 1:27:14Speaker 19: Likely to those candidates communist candidates who won let's call
- 1:27:18Speaker 19: them what they are, communist candidates. They're not going to
- 1:27:21Speaker 19: win the general and in fact, they're going to lose
- 1:27:23Speaker 19: the general by even more so. At the end of
- 1:27:25Speaker 19: the day, I think the Democrat Party is further weakened
- 1:27:29Speaker 19: by having these fringe lunatic left wing candadates.
- 1:27:35Speaker 8: They really are fringed lunatics. I'm not even sure they're fringe.
- 1:27:38Speaker 8: They're getting a little more popularity, but you're right, they're
- 1:27:41Speaker 8: not going to win the general election. So I love
- 1:27:44Speaker 8: having you won everybody, because you, really, of all my
- 1:27:47Speaker 8: guests all week long, give me the most info on
- 1:27:51Speaker 8: the Iran conflict. Then you and I go back and forth.
- 1:27:53Speaker 8: I disagree sometimes with what you say, but you certainly
- 1:27:56Speaker 8: do a tremendous job of proving your case. All the
- 1:28:00Speaker 8: last couple of days, the President has been really hesitant
- 1:28:04Speaker 8: to even talk about the complict he has. He's moved
- 1:28:07Speaker 8: on to other issues and doesn't really want to talk
- 1:28:09Speaker 8: about he won Mutch. The last couple of days, where
- 1:28:12Speaker 8: are we this Friday? KT in that conflict?
- 1:28:16Speaker 19: I think we've already won. Now we haven't signed a
- 1:28:18Speaker 19: peace agreement. But what were the objectives of the Iran
- 1:28:21Speaker 19: war going into it? Stop their nuclear program? The nuclear
- 1:28:24Speaker 19: programs underpiled under rubble. If they try to clear the
- 1:28:27Speaker 19: rubble and restart the nuclear program, fine, we just bomb
- 1:28:30Speaker 19: it again. If they try to build a new nuclear
- 1:28:33Speaker 19: Richmond facilities in new mountains sun, we bomb those. We
- 1:28:36Speaker 19: can see what's happening on every square inch of Iran
- 1:28:38Speaker 19: right now. We're watching that with our satellite and other technologies.
- 1:28:42Speaker 19: You just bombit when they try to rebuild a nuclear program.
- 1:28:46Speaker 19: So the nuclear program done, what's the next part of it?
- 1:28:49Speaker 19: Straight up hormus and keeping world energy? Where is that
- 1:28:54Speaker 19: we're getting shipped through? They're getting through by turning off
- 1:28:58Speaker 19: their responders. It's like a GPS system, so they're not
- 1:29:03Speaker 19: you know, nobody knows that they're getting through except us,
- 1:29:05Speaker 19: because we're helping them get through. But we know that
- 1:29:08Speaker 19: probably ten million there als a day, which is about
- 1:29:11Speaker 19: half of the normal flow through the Strait of Hormuz,
- 1:29:14Speaker 19: that is getting through, and it's getting through on the
- 1:29:16Speaker 19: southern route, the Omani coast route. And why we know
- 1:29:20Speaker 19: that because with a look at the price of oil,
- 1:29:22Speaker 19: and we look at how much oil is in the world,
- 1:29:24Speaker 19: it's coming from somewhere. Some of it's coming from the
- 1:29:26Speaker 19: United States. The United States is now the world as
- 1:29:29Speaker 19: a result of the Iron War. The world is now.
- 1:29:32Speaker 19: The US is now the world's largest exporter of crude,
- 1:29:36Speaker 19: refined oil, liquefied natural gas, and not by a little bit,
- 1:29:39Speaker 19: by an order of magnitude. So it's been good for
- 1:29:42Speaker 19: business for US. And then the second way the oil
- 1:29:44Speaker 19: is getting through the region is through pipelines. There were
- 1:29:47Speaker 19: existing pipelines before, and some of it, especially from the
- 1:29:50Speaker 19: uae Iraq others, traveled by pipeline to reach their market,
- 1:29:54Speaker 19: but those pipelines have now been jazzed up. More oil
- 1:29:57Speaker 19: is going through the pipelines, and there's a race to
- 1:30:00Speaker 19: build more pipelines. New pipeline including pipelines going to the
- 1:30:03Speaker 19: Mediterranean from the Middle East. So the value that Iran
- 1:30:07Speaker 19: has of the Strait of Remus is an ability to
- 1:30:10Speaker 19: blackmail the world. And they've used that straight of removes
- 1:30:12Speaker 19: for fifty years to blackmail the world, going back to
- 1:30:16Speaker 19: the Reagan administration, when I work for President Reagan, they
- 1:30:19Speaker 19: mine the Strait of Removes, they throw the world economy
- 1:30:22Speaker 19: into uproar. Now they won't be able to do it
- 1:30:24Speaker 19: because oil is coming from different places and it's moving differently.
- 1:30:29Speaker 19: So in that regard, Iran is no longer has the
- 1:30:32Speaker 19: ability to blackmail the world. And then the third thing
- 1:30:36Speaker 19: is what is their threat to the region where their
- 1:30:38Speaker 19: threats to the region has been massively reduced Hesba lah Amas,
- 1:30:41Speaker 19: the UTIs the Cyria all has gone or greatly just
- 1:30:45Speaker 19: greatly greatly devalued, And.
- 1:30:48Speaker 8: So what about the way if that's true, And if
- 1:30:50Speaker 8: that's true, then you you know, you have to give
- 1:30:53Speaker 8: a lot of credit to Israel for that, not just US.
- 1:30:56Speaker 19: One one hundred percent to Israel because Israel took out
- 1:31:00Speaker 19: the proxies. Israel helped us with intelligence first of all
- 1:31:05Speaker 19: with the attack that we did at night Hammer and
- 1:31:07Speaker 19: taking out the nuclear sites, but also Israel in everybody's
- 1:31:11Speaker 19: back pocket is the ability to take out the next, second, third,
- 1:31:16Speaker 19: and fourth tier of leadership in irun Is. Israel knows
- 1:31:19Speaker 19: the sad, knows where all those guns are and how
- 1:31:22Speaker 19: to get them.
- 1:31:22Speaker 8: Yeah, also haven't gotten. They also know who's out there
- 1:31:26Speaker 8: trying to kill the president. They've saved his life a
- 1:31:27Speaker 8: couple of times. So I would just just to play
- 1:31:30Speaker 8: double's advocate, because you know, I love Trump as much
- 1:31:32Speaker 8: as you do, and I love them every bit today
- 1:31:36Speaker 8: as I did, you know, ten nine years ago, because
- 1:31:38Speaker 8: I did both raillary. But if all this is true
- 1:31:41Speaker 8: and we've won, and I don't think we've won, I
- 1:31:43Speaker 8: think we're winning. I think his detractors that say we
- 1:31:46Speaker 8: lost the war blah blah blah, that's ridiculous. I do
- 1:31:48Speaker 8: think we're winning. But this game's not over from me.
- 1:31:51Speaker 8: I'm in the sixth inning. It's a nine inning baseball game.
- 1:31:54Speaker 8: But with that said, if you're right and we won
- 1:31:57Speaker 8: and all the news is good news, why is this
- 1:31:59Speaker 8: a pooval rating so miserable?
- 1:32:03Speaker 19: I think part of it is he doesn't explain it.
- 1:32:06Speaker 19: I mean that was one of my frustrations in working
- 1:32:08Speaker 19: with President Trump in the first term. He sees the
- 1:32:11Speaker 19: big picture, he sees you know all the moves, and
- 1:32:14Speaker 19: he sees the moves five years down the road, but
- 1:32:16Speaker 19: he doesn't explain it to the American people. I think
- 1:32:19Speaker 19: he figures that everybody gets it already, and they don't.
- 1:32:22Speaker 19: It's because he's so far ahead in thinking of the
- 1:32:25Speaker 19: various moves down the chessboard. I mean, for example, what's
- 1:32:29Speaker 19: the big takeaway from the Iran or put the Iran
- 1:32:32Speaker 19: part of it out of your mind for a minute.
- 1:32:34Speaker 19: The big takeaways We've transformed the Middle East, first with
- 1:32:37Speaker 19: the Abraham Accords and now with the golf Arabs for
- 1:32:41Speaker 19: the most part working with us, fighting with US against Iran.
- 1:32:45Speaker 19: That's a huge transformation. If you and I had had
- 1:32:48Speaker 19: a conversation a year ago saying, well, you know, some
- 1:32:51Speaker 19: of the golf Arabs countries would be working with Israel
- 1:32:55Speaker 19: against Iran, you'd laugh at me. The golf Arabs have
- 1:32:57Speaker 19: never worked with Israel, and now they're working with Israel.
- 1:33:00Speaker 19: So that's a big change. And then the next change
- 1:33:02Speaker 19: is that we now dominate world energy, not only because
- 1:33:06Speaker 19: of Trump's economic policies and energy policies in the US,
- 1:33:10Speaker 19: but because of it because of our new relationship with
- 1:33:13Speaker 19: Venezuela and all fair oil, our new relationship with this
- 1:33:16Speaker 19: calf A countries and all fair oil. And so we're
- 1:33:19Speaker 19: now in the are the dominant not not just self sufficient,
- 1:33:23Speaker 19: not just energy independent, dominant energy power in the world. Now,
- 1:33:26Speaker 19: why does that matter? Well, it always matters for manufacturing
- 1:33:30Speaker 19: and various other things in the economy, but it really
- 1:33:33Speaker 19: matters when you look ahead. What's the next transformative technology
- 1:33:38Speaker 19: that's going to change the world? Artificial intelligence. We're ahead
- 1:33:42Speaker 19: of the technology of it, but we're also ahead in
- 1:33:45Speaker 19: the energy because it requires massive amounts of energy. So
- 1:33:49Speaker 19: I think present time needs to tell that to the
- 1:33:50Speaker 19: American people don't get it. And if there's a temporary
- 1:33:54Speaker 19: you know, four dollars and twelve cents for gasoline for
- 1:33:58Speaker 19: the next month or two, I think America understand.
- 1:34:00Speaker 8: That Reuterers is reporting that only a single number of
- 1:34:05Speaker 8: ships are passing through the Home Move Straight every day,
- 1:34:08Speaker 8: So you know, you just it's kind of like, who
- 1:34:10Speaker 8: do you believe today? Waters of course is not exactly
- 1:34:13Speaker 8: a fund of the administration. I get that, but there
- 1:34:16Speaker 8: are agencies that are saying that only less than ten
- 1:34:20Speaker 8: ships a day are going through the Straight just out there.
- 1:34:24Speaker 8: I don't know, what do you say, when you see that, so.
- 1:34:26Speaker 19: Here where you see that? What that conclusion is the
- 1:34:32Speaker 19: tracking that international groups are doing of the ships, Well,
- 1:34:35Speaker 19: how do you track a ship? Basically through GPS. They're
- 1:34:38Speaker 19: called responders on a ship, and those are turned off
- 1:34:42Speaker 19: the ships are getting through the strait that they're turning
- 1:34:44Speaker 19: off their GPS system. So the people who are tracking it,
- 1:34:48Speaker 19: who look only for the GPS signal, they're not seeing
- 1:34:51Speaker 19: a GPS signal. They're not realizing that those ships are
- 1:34:54Speaker 19: going through the strait. So I would say that's kind
- 1:34:56Speaker 19: of flawed data. Look at the inevitability of the numbers.
- 1:35:00Speaker 19: Why is gasoline still I guess eighty eight dollars a
- 1:35:04Speaker 19: burrol today, But it's in the between. It's the bet
- 1:35:07Speaker 19: between seventy eighty eighty five dollars a barrel. And it
- 1:35:10Speaker 19: has been whether there's been a ceasefire or no cease fire,
- 1:35:13Speaker 19: whether the strait has been open, whether strait has been closed.
- 1:35:16Speaker 19: The importance of the Strait of Remouse is a diminishing
- 1:35:20Speaker 19: asset for Iran, and then the people who are clamor
- 1:35:22Speaker 19: for regime change, and I would love to see regime change.
- 1:35:25Speaker 19: I don't think it's an American first objective. Our objective
- 1:35:29Speaker 19: is the nukes. Our objective is the energy the strait
- 1:35:32Speaker 19: of Remouse. But regime change that do you know what
- 1:35:35Speaker 19: happened yesterday? The head of the Bank of Iran and
- 1:35:38Speaker 19: the speaker of the Parliamum of Iran both gave speeches
- 1:35:41Speaker 19: and they said, we can't go on like this with
- 1:35:44Speaker 19: the economy in free fall, not to win.
- 1:35:48Speaker 8: I want to ask you this though, if God forbid,
- 1:35:50Speaker 8: we don't win in twenty eight, whether it's J. D.
- 1:35:52Speaker 8: Van Til Marco Rubio, we don't win, Okay, in some
- 1:35:55Speaker 8: lunatic democrat, which is I really can't even think of somebody.
- 1:35:59Speaker 8: That's how iticulous as hypothetical is. But whatever, you know,
- 1:36:02Speaker 8: the uh, it doesn't go well for Trump. You know,
- 1:36:05Speaker 8: we lose the House. They impeach him every day, and
- 1:36:07Speaker 8: this is all God forbid stuff, of course, and a
- 1:36:09Speaker 8: Democrat actually wins. Has Trump done stuff during this conflict
- 1:36:15Speaker 8: that is democrat proof? Or if they take over in
- 1:36:20Speaker 8: a couple of years, do they unravel all of this?
- 1:36:25Speaker 19: I think it's if a normal Democrat were to take over,
- 1:36:27Speaker 19: it's Trump has put it into practice, right, like the
- 1:36:31Speaker 19: low drug prices, for example. I don't think any Democrat,
- 1:36:36Speaker 19: normal democrat is going to say, okay, let's go back
- 1:36:38Speaker 19: to real high drug price.
- 1:36:39Speaker 8: Oh I got to tell you, I actually I actually
- 1:36:40Speaker 8: had doctor ozon this morning. I very rarely have a
- 1:36:43Speaker 8: guest Katie at six point thirty in the morning, but
- 1:36:45Speaker 8: he came on. He actually called us to come on.
- 1:36:48Speaker 8: And one of the people that is championing what President
- 1:36:51Speaker 8: Trump did here, believe it or not, Mark Cuban, right right, right,
- 1:36:59Speaker 8: So he's got that the Dow Jones is putting up big,
- 1:37:02Speaker 8: big numbers. The price of eggs, like he pointed out
- 1:37:05Speaker 8: along on the last week, is down. You know, eventually
- 1:37:08Speaker 8: interest rates would wash in control. They're going to come down.
- 1:37:11Speaker 8: So a lot of the economic indicators favor President John.
- 1:37:16Speaker 19: Here's the example I used. So I was in the
- 1:37:18Speaker 19: Reagan administration. I'm a cold warrior, and when President Reagan
- 1:37:22Speaker 19: was elected in nineteen eighty, the economy was devastating shape.
- 1:37:26Speaker 19: Where there were gasoline lines, there was rationing. If you
- 1:37:29Speaker 19: want to get a mortgage for your house, I don't
- 1:37:31Speaker 19: like eighteen percent, twenty percent, like you know, rates that
- 1:37:35Speaker 19: nobody could really afford. There was massive inflation, there was
- 1:37:38Speaker 19: massive unemployment. The economy was a wreck. And what happened.
- 1:37:41Speaker 19: Reagan came in and changed everything. He changed the tax laws,
- 1:37:45Speaker 19: he changed the regulatory laws, He encouraged energy production, he
- 1:37:50Speaker 19: rebuilt the American defenses. He did all those things. But
- 1:37:53Speaker 19: the academy didn't turn around. It's like a big super thinker.
- 1:37:57Speaker 19: It takes a while to turn that around. And it
- 1:38:00Speaker 19: did not turn around. By nineteen eighty two in the midterms,
- 1:38:03Speaker 19: it was still people were still filling in the pain
- 1:38:05Speaker 19: and they'd see no gain, and so Reagan lost the midterms.
- 1:38:08Speaker 19: But what happened is that that's November nineteen eighty two,
- 1:38:11Speaker 19: lost the midterms, economy is still looking bad. Within six months,
- 1:38:15Speaker 19: the economy turned around and it was the biggest most
- 1:38:19Speaker 19: successful run economic bull market run in American history so far.
- 1:38:24Speaker 19: And I think that's what Trump faces now. The economy
- 1:38:27Speaker 19: is going to turn around for all the reasons you've
- 1:38:29Speaker 19: just said, it just hasn't quite happened yet. When it happens,
- 1:38:33Speaker 19: off to the races, you know, economy, energy prices are
- 1:38:36Speaker 19: going to come down, artificial intelligence is taking over that
- 1:38:40Speaker 19: we're going to be leading all the trillion down twenty
- 1:38:42Speaker 19: trillion dollars in new investment into the United States, Factories
- 1:38:46Speaker 19: are being built, jobs will be there, it'll be spectacular.
- 1:38:49Speaker 19: It just hasn't quite happened yet. And that's what's so frustrating.
- 1:38:52Speaker 19: And I think again, explain that to the American people. Putt,
- 1:38:54Speaker 19: mister Wright, of.
- 1:38:55Speaker 8: Course, that's good at it, do it right. That's going
- 1:38:57Speaker 8: to bode the question. So the Trump detractors are going
- 1:38:59Speaker 8: to say, while these wars, he lied to us. America first,
- 1:39:03Speaker 8: no one new wars. This is not a new war,
- 1:39:05Speaker 8: you dumb bastards. They started this forty seven years ago.
- 1:39:09Speaker 8: I'm sick of trying to explain it to people. But
- 1:39:11Speaker 8: the new war, you know he got, he lied to us.
- 1:39:14Speaker 8: It's not America first, all these wars costing us a fortune,
- 1:39:18Speaker 8: all the money we give to Israel. That's why. Okay,
- 1:39:22Speaker 8: that's gonna be the excuse from the Trump detractor. Now,
- 1:39:26Speaker 8: the Trump fan like me says, hold on a second.
- 1:39:30Speaker 8: I don't think you guys even realize how bad Joe
- 1:39:35Speaker 8: Biden left this country for Trump. So bad every possible way,
- 1:39:40Speaker 8: world wars, the economy, race relations, you name it. Joe
- 1:39:45Speaker 8: Biden gave Trump literally a bag of horsecrap. And it's
- 1:39:50Speaker 8: gonna take a while to fix it. Those are gonna
- 1:39:52Speaker 8: be the two schools of thought. Trump needs to really
- 1:39:55Speaker 8: go out there and drive home what I just said.
- 1:39:59Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean, where would gasoline prices be right now
- 1:40:02Speaker 19: with Shoe energy Joe Biden's energy policy, we wouldn't have
- 1:40:05Speaker 19: American energy dominance. Where would drug prices be under Joe
- 1:40:08Speaker 19: Biden's economy? Where would we be with regard to the
- 1:40:12Speaker 19: Middle East? Probably know more in the Middle East because
- 1:40:14Speaker 19: Iran would develop nuclear well, by the.
- 1:40:16Speaker 8: Way too, and we'd still have hostages in uh in Gaza.
- 1:40:20Speaker 8: Don't forget those morons, Biden and Harris. She's really a moron,
- 1:40:24Speaker 8: she said, Remember this, I studied the maps. You studied nothing.
- 1:40:28Speaker 8: She said, do not go into Rapa. Well, as it
- 1:40:31Speaker 8: turns out, Trump went in and he saved a whole
- 1:40:33Speaker 8: bunch of hostages. And by the way, we killed Sinwar
- 1:40:38Speaker 8: in Rapa. So my guess is though it would still
- 1:40:41Speaker 8: be hostages and still huge conflict between Israel and Hamas.
- 1:40:47Speaker 19: And that's not absolutely and that's not to mention. I
- 1:40:49Speaker 19: mean those proxies as Balahamas, et cetera, would be more
- 1:40:52Speaker 19: powerful under Joe Biden. And then what would happen with
- 1:40:55Speaker 19: our with regard to our situation in South America, we
- 1:40:58Speaker 19: now have South America is turning into Trump Land, right
- 1:41:02Speaker 19: because Ratikina is led by a pro Trump guy. Brazil
- 1:41:06Speaker 19: is going to have an election with a pro Trump guy.
- 1:41:08Speaker 19: A number of other countries in the region will probably
- 1:41:10Speaker 19: have a deal with Cuba to get rid of the remaining,
- 1:41:15Speaker 19: you know, octogenarian communists in Cuba and have a flourishing
- 1:41:19Speaker 19: new relationship with a post communist Cuba. That would happen
- 1:41:22Speaker 19: if a Democrat was in even a moderate Democrat wouldn't
- 1:41:25Speaker 19: get you there. And as far as who would win
- 1:41:28Speaker 19: a Democrat election, who would be the next per I mean,
- 1:41:30Speaker 19: let let's say, in a crazy nightmare, it's AOC. What's
- 1:41:34Speaker 19: she going to do? Going to let fund the police,
- 1:41:37Speaker 19: defriend the military? You know, you just compared to Donald Trump,
- 1:41:41Speaker 19: who by twenty twenty eighth the American economy will be
- 1:41:43Speaker 19: off to the races.
- 1:41:45Speaker 8: I don't think so what a disaster? Oh God, just
- 1:41:48Speaker 8: thought of that could ruin the whole weekend. Come on,
- 1:41:50Speaker 8: you've got a big weekend in Southampton, don't you.
- 1:41:53Speaker 26: You always have a big one.
- 1:41:54Speaker 8: I know, I was last Friday night at the Roberts House, boy,
- 1:41:58Speaker 8: Willie is a beautiful place I had dinner. You must

- 1:47:46Speaker 7: Just you can be in touch with it. You just
- 1:47:49Speaker 7: don't have to have a boat ride with it.
- 1:47:50Speaker 8: A right show. That's all Pink Jacket and Kenny Rodgers.
- 1:47:54Speaker 8: That's quite a morning. Lee Helton is going to join us.
- 1:47:56Speaker 8: I told you earlier. You know you made it big
- 1:47:59Speaker 8: when the Trump administration contacts you. And that's what happened
- 1:48:03Speaker 8: twice today, twice doctor Oz six point thirty this morning.
- 1:48:07Speaker 8: He was fantastic. His people contacted us, and Lee Seldon,
- 1:48:13Speaker 8: the head of the EPA coming up in about twenty minutes.

- 1:51:26Speaker 8: eight forty eight. I don't think Ariel Epstein is old
- 1:51:29Speaker 8: enough to remember the who I don't even know about it?
- 1:51:31Speaker 8: How old are you?
- 1:51:32Speaker 4: I'll be next month.
- 1:51:34Speaker 8: So do you like the who? Yeah?
- 1:51:36Speaker 4: I like that. I love the who dad loves Yeah.
- 1:51:38Speaker 8: So you know what's becoming really rough, Loue, is that
- 1:51:41Speaker 8: all these young girls that we meet on the show
- 1:51:44Speaker 8: and other places, it's always their dad that has something
- 1:51:47Speaker 8: in a least, it's not Grandpa. She's a very good point.
- 1:51:54Speaker 8: Soon it will be. But that's a very good point.
- 1:51:56Speaker 8: We got that, not Grandpa Josh yet. So Ariel Epstein
- 1:51:59Speaker 8: was a big star our MLB Network and a few
- 1:52:01Speaker 8: other spots, and now she's joining Clay Travis. Clay is
- 1:52:05Speaker 8: no longer without kick dot com. My good friend Craig
- 1:52:08Speaker 8: Carton was on the show yesterday. He's going there. But
- 1:52:10Speaker 8: Clay is leaving starting his own media network and Darriel
- 1:52:14Speaker 8: is one of the big talents he's going to have
- 1:52:17Speaker 8: in that project. He's very excited about it. So congratulations,
- 1:52:20Speaker 8: thank you.
- 1:52:21Speaker 35: We've had a couple of days that we've been live.
- 1:52:24Speaker 35: It's a show called on Tilt and it's me, my
- 1:52:27Speaker 35: best friend Kelly Stewart, and our good friend Joe Rainieri,
- 1:52:30Speaker 35: who I know Joe. We have had so much fun
- 1:52:34Speaker 35: across just two days. It's just such a fun mix
- 1:52:37Speaker 35: of talking to two of your closest friends about sports,
- 1:52:41Speaker 35: a little bit of politics, but mostly sports and sports betting.
- 1:52:44Speaker 8: When you say a little bit of politics, what would
- 1:52:45Speaker 8: you delve into him? Just curious because Clay's a big
- 1:52:47Speaker 8: Trump guy like me.
- 1:52:48Speaker 35: Of course, anything that kind of brings politics into sports.
- 1:52:52Speaker 35: A lot of w NBA conversation, even just the politics
- 1:52:56Speaker 35: of what we've seen with certain court cases and judges
- 1:53:00Speaker 35: that are overturning things that has changed college football in
- 1:53:03Speaker 35: college sports the way we know it. There was just
- 1:53:05Speaker 35: a Louisiana judge the other day that said, if you
- 1:53:10Speaker 35: went through the NFL draft, you joined an NFL team.
- 1:53:14Speaker 35: But let's say you don't think you're gonna make the
- 1:53:17Speaker 35: cut or you might not start. You have a week
- 1:53:21Speaker 35: to decide if you want to go back to college.
- 1:53:23Speaker 8: What Yep, you can be on an NFL team and
- 1:53:27Speaker 8: then decide to go back to college.
- 1:53:29Speaker 35: Yep, if you didn't, as long as you didn't take
- 1:53:31Speaker 35: a regular season NFL snap, right.
- 1:53:34Speaker 8: You see. I'm very close with the president of the Yankees,
- 1:53:37Speaker 8: Randy Levine. In fact, we're having a big charity event
- 1:53:39Speaker 8: for my son. The charity we do.
- 1:53:41Speaker 4: You're with Lon Tross, Tell him I say, hello.
- 1:53:43Speaker 8: Probably going to be there. So we got the Yankees
- 1:53:45Speaker 8: and the Blue Jays tomorrow. And Randy has been working
- 1:53:49Speaker 8: very very hard with Tiger Woods and Urban Meyer and
- 1:53:53Speaker 8: a whole bunch of folks, Marco Rubio and the president
- 1:53:56Speaker 8: on fixing college sports. And you know that, yes, there's
- 1:54:00Speaker 8: a lot more work to do. I mean, you know there's.
- 1:54:02Speaker 4: No regulation, there's nothing. Why in this world do we
- 1:54:04Speaker 4: want to take away all regulation?
- 1:54:06Speaker 8: You have starting quarterbacks in college ariel that are older
- 1:54:10Speaker 8: than NFL starting quarterbacks. How does that make sense?
- 1:54:13Speaker 35: Well, and what also bothers me is the reason that
- 1:54:17Speaker 35: these players are even considering today leaving the NFL to
- 1:54:22Speaker 35: go back to college. They're making about one hundred grand
- 1:54:25Speaker 35: if they were a late round pick or went undrafted.
- 1:54:28Speaker 4: They could go back to college.
- 1:54:30Speaker 35: Say I got drafted in the NFL and some guy
- 1:54:34Speaker 35: who's a big donor is going to offer him a
- 1:54:36Speaker 35: million dollars.
- 1:54:37Speaker 8: Amazing. That is absolutely unreal. What's happening to college football
- 1:54:42Speaker 8: and college sports? I mean, look, when I was a kid,
- 1:54:44Speaker 8: I love college basketball. I loved it right because I
- 1:54:47Speaker 8: saw Chris Mollin play for years at Saint John's. Patrick
- 1:54:50Speaker 8: Ewing at Georgetown, Michael Jordan, North Carolina. Now the good
- 1:54:53Speaker 8: players play one year, they go to the NBA, and
- 1:54:56Speaker 8: these teams you just can't love them because you can
- 1:55:00Speaker 8: hip all love with the players that want and done.
- 1:55:02Speaker 35: When I worked in North Carolina as a local sports anger,
- 1:55:05Speaker 35: you worked there. I worked in North Carolina for Zion
- 1:55:07Speaker 35: Williamson's era.
- 1:55:09Speaker 10: I was.
- 1:55:09Speaker 35: I moved out of New York, moved all the way
- 1:55:11Speaker 35: to North Carolina, left everything behind because my dream was
- 1:55:14Speaker 35: always to be a sports broadcaster. I was in local
- 1:55:19Speaker 35: news and it was Zion Williamson, RJ.
- 1:55:21Speaker 4: Barrett.
- 1:55:22Speaker 35: But Zion is the reason Nil even exists today because
- 1:55:25Speaker 35: he was such a sensation.
- 1:55:26Speaker 4: Yep, he's in the NFL, in the NBA right now.
- 1:55:31Speaker 4: He barely plays. He's injured all the time, all the time.
- 1:55:33Speaker 8: Right It's so sad he's on the wallings. I think
- 1:55:36Speaker 8: I don't even know. Mike Krzyzewsky did a great job
- 1:55:38Speaker 8: with him. But you're right. So my wife spent about
- 1:55:42Speaker 8: thirteen years living in Charlotte, Okay. Born in Brooklyn, went
- 1:55:46Speaker 8: to Charlotte for thirteen years, and she taught me this
- 1:55:48Speaker 8: you ready for this? Duke is puke Wake is fake?
- 1:55:53Speaker 8: But The team we hate is NC State goal Tarios.
- 1:55:58Speaker 8: You like that. I gave it to Lara Trump one day.
- 1:56:02Speaker 8: She went not she loved it.
- 1:56:03Speaker 4: That's awesome.
- 1:56:03Speaker 8: She grew up and lived in a North Carolina Ceast.
- 1:56:06Speaker 4: State has one too.
- 1:56:07Speaker 35: During their fight song at the beginning of the games,
- 1:56:10Speaker 35: they all sing something that like, I forget it because
- 1:56:13Speaker 35: I went with my ex boyfriend all the time.
- 1:56:15Speaker 4: I forget the song. But they also do a thing.
- 1:56:17Speaker 35: They don't really include Wake, I don't think, but they
- 1:56:19Speaker 35: do include Duke and you and s They hate each other.
- 1:56:21Speaker 8: They do hate each other. It's a great rivalry there.
- 1:56:23Speaker 8: All right, let's get to some of this talking about
- 1:56:25Speaker 8: NFL quarterbacks. Let's get to some of these futures. This
- 1:56:28Speaker 8: is something that you're very, very good at. You're great
- 1:56:30Speaker 8: at it, and we're all big NFL fans here a
- 1:56:33Speaker 8: very big Justin's a douchebag Eagles fan, but won't hold
- 1:56:36Speaker 8: out against them. So let's get to running back. So
- 1:56:39Speaker 8: right now, the two running backs I think that most
- 1:56:41Speaker 8: people think of the best in the NFL are Gibbs
- 1:56:44Speaker 8: with the Lions and Robinson with the Falcons. Maybe not
- 1:56:48Speaker 8: even in that order. What are you looking at in
- 1:56:49Speaker 8: terms of running back futures for this season.
- 1:56:52Speaker 35: So for people that don't know, you can instead of
- 1:56:55Speaker 35: just betting each game, you can bet on let's say
- 1:56:59Speaker 35: Jimy or Gibbs Lions running back to go over one
- 1:57:02Speaker 35: thy one hundred and ninety nine and a half rushing
- 1:57:04Speaker 35: yards for his entire season.
- 1:57:06Speaker 8: Two ould to take that.
- 1:57:07Speaker 4: He's gone over it and back to back.
- 1:57:09Speaker 8: Seasons he's had numbers so low.
- 1:57:11Speaker 4: And here's the kicker.
- 1:57:13Speaker 35: Last year he faced way more teams that were top
- 1:57:16Speaker 35: ten against the run. This year, Jamiir Gibbs is facing
- 1:57:19Speaker 35: seven bottom ten projected run defenses, zero top ten run defenses. Also,
- 1:57:26Speaker 35: last year, until about i'd say, like week eleven, week
- 1:57:29Speaker 35: ten eleven, Jamiir Gibbs was splitting carries and now it
- 1:57:34Speaker 35: took until the second half of the year for Jamiir
- 1:57:36Speaker 35: Gibbs to finally get sixty five percent of the snaps.
- 1:57:39Speaker 4: He's no number one back for sure, and they got rid.
- 1:57:42Speaker 35: Of David Montgomery. He is the number one back, Jamir Gibbs.
- 1:57:44Speaker 35: So this number at eleven ninety nine just way too low,
- 1:57:47Speaker 35: and I would be willing to say he should be
- 1:57:49Speaker 35: your number one pick in fantasy drafts. He is definitely
- 1:57:52Speaker 35: he should be going over this number, and he's a
- 1:57:55Speaker 35: contender for the leading rusher in the NFL.
- 1:57:57Speaker 8: Couldn't agree more. Give me wide receiver, Now, what do
- 1:57:59Speaker 8: you like? Could you like?
- 1:58:00Speaker 35: It's a little public, but Jackson Smith and Jigbove Seattle.
- 1:58:04Speaker 35: I love that he has another year of his quarterback,
- 1:58:06Speaker 35: Sam Donald under center.
- 1:58:08Speaker 8: He sold on Donald. Look, he had a great year
- 1:58:10Speaker 8: two years ago with Minnesota, but was terrible the final
- 1:58:13Speaker 8: two games of the year, which he needed. But he
- 1:58:14Speaker 8: did have that year last year won the Super Bowl.
- 1:58:17Speaker 8: You're sold on Donald.
- 1:58:18Speaker 35: I'm not sold on Donald, but I'm sold on his
- 1:58:20Speaker 35: wide receiver, who's super talented. They have a ton of
- 1:58:23Speaker 35: talent in that receiving corps and it's the same as
- 1:58:25Speaker 35: last year, which I like because it does create a
- 1:58:28Speaker 35: little bit of a decoy and maybe instead of triple
- 1:58:31Speaker 35: coverage you have JSN in double coverage.
- 1:58:34Speaker 4: That's fine, he could do it.
- 1:58:36Speaker 35: So for him to go over his receiving prop I
- 1:58:38Speaker 35: really like that one in a system that he knows.
- 1:58:40Speaker 4: And he's also facing.
- 1:58:41Speaker 35: Majority I think even more than last year bottom ten
- 1:58:44Speaker 35: pass defenses, which is great for a team that won
- 1:58:47Speaker 35: the Super Bowl. It's weird that you're not going to
- 1:58:50Speaker 35: face as many good pass defenses, but hey, I'll take
- 1:58:52Speaker 35: it for Jaysn.
- 1:58:53Speaker 8: I think the first game of the year this year,
- 1:58:55Speaker 8: they played Wednesday, not Thursday Day. It's weird Wednesday and
- 1:58:58Speaker 8: it's a rematch of the Super Seahawks and Patriots coming
- 1:59:02Speaker 8: up that first Wednesday.
- 1:59:03Speaker 4: Before the Australia game on Thursday.
- 1:59:05Speaker 8: Yes, yes, and that I forget what matchup that is,
- 1:59:08Speaker 8: but you do get the Seahawks and Patriots. So if
- 1:59:11Speaker 8: you were a little girl, okay, would one of your
- 1:59:14Speaker 8: heroes be Sophie Cunningham.
- 1:59:16Speaker 4: Oh? Absolutely, yeah, right.
- 1:59:18Speaker 35: I think it's just cool when people aren't afraid to
- 1:59:21Speaker 35: stand their ground. I love that she isn't afraid to,
- 1:59:26Speaker 35: Like I would have been very nervous if I was
- 1:59:28Speaker 35: her in her position. I really just like to be
- 1:59:31Speaker 35: a pupil pleaser, and it's taken me a long time
- 1:59:33Speaker 35: to kind of get over that. But for her to
- 1:59:36Speaker 35: stand up for women in a way in an environment
- 1:59:39Speaker 35: where it's very scary to do so when you know
- 1:59:42Speaker 35: you're gonna be the enemy, and plus she puts herself
- 1:59:45Speaker 35: together really well. And I know that some people say, oh,
- 1:59:48Speaker 35: it's not all about looks. It is about looks in
- 1:59:51Speaker 35: many ways. When you carry yourself a certain way, people
- 1:59:54Speaker 35: just tend to respect you. And I think Sophie Cunningham
- 1:59:56Speaker 35: carries herself very well.
- 1:59:58Speaker 8: She does. She looks great, sounds great. The whole WNBA, though,
- 2:00:02Speaker 8: has become just completely insane. They've jumped the shark and
- 2:00:05Speaker 8: now you've got I think White and Canton or both men,
- 2:00:09Speaker 8: both who played in the NBA, they have they both
- 2:00:11Speaker 8: officially now entered the WNBA draft. I mean, that's crazy,
- 2:00:15Speaker 8: right crazy.
- 2:00:16Speaker 4: Clay started this whole movie with the Nashville Ball.
- 2:00:19Speaker 8: Do you want the ten million dollars to the Las
- 2:00:21Speaker 8: Vegas Aces? Klay Travis is a genius.
- 2:00:24Speaker 4: He started a movement.
- 2:00:26Speaker 35: And here's the thing that annoys me the most, said,
- 2:00:29Speaker 35: I just watched Cheryl Reeves, who's one of the head
- 2:00:31Speaker 35: coaches in the WNBA.
- 2:00:33Speaker 8: What does she coach?
- 2:00:34Speaker 35: I forget Seattle, And she was saying how the people
- 2:00:40Speaker 35: on the right are trying to just get seen and
- 2:00:43Speaker 35: make a statement and they just want to be heard.
- 2:00:45Speaker 4: But like it's a bad Like we need to do
- 2:00:47Speaker 4: more research.
- 2:00:49Speaker 35: And I just said, I think a lot of people
- 2:00:52Speaker 35: are missing the point here. It has nothing to do
- 2:00:55Speaker 35: with being against any of Like, I really don't care
- 2:01:00Speaker 35: what people do with their life.
- 2:01:01Speaker 4: Don't convince kids to do it.
- 2:01:02Speaker 35: But I think once you're above like eighteen twenty one,
- 2:01:05Speaker 35: do what you want with your life.
- 2:01:06Speaker 4: I really don't care.
- 2:01:07Speaker 35: When I was in high school, we played gym volleyball,
- 2:01:10Speaker 35: and every year there was a big gym volleyball tournament
- 2:01:13Speaker 35: with the boys and the girls all on the same teams.
- 2:01:15Speaker 35: Sid When I was standing at the net, if a
- 2:01:18Speaker 35: guy went up to spike that ball, I ran for
- 2:01:20Speaker 35: my life.
- 2:01:21Speaker 4: I didn't want to get hit by that. The guy
- 2:01:24Speaker 4: spiking the ball in my face is a.
- 2:01:26Speaker 35: Lot stronger and harder and worse than if a girl's
- 2:01:29Speaker 35: doing it on the other side. So if I'm playing
- 2:01:32Speaker 35: a professional sport, I again, I don't care what people
- 2:01:35Speaker 35: do with their life. It's not about being like transphobic.
- 2:01:38Speaker 35: It's about just making sure a biological man is not
- 2:01:41Speaker 35: going to harm a biological woman.
- 2:01:43Speaker 8: Do you realize the Olympics they actually had boxers, they
- 2:01:46Speaker 8: had men.
- 2:01:47Speaker 4: I mean even the Olympics, which is worldwide. They said,
- 2:01:52Speaker 4: we're done with this.
- 2:01:53Speaker 8: Yeah, I know, the Olympics is done. I know because
- 2:01:55Speaker 8: it's crazy last one. I got the amazing Lee's Elden
- 2:01:58Speaker 8: on the phone, who up in so Wan to eat? Yeah,
- 2:02:00Speaker 8: you're smiling. You love them too. For young girls out
- 2:02:03Speaker 8: there today, a lot of young girls want to go
- 2:02:05Speaker 8: into sports, okay, and it's getting easier. When I was
- 2:02:08Speaker 8: a kid doing no girls, yeah, like you had Philip
- 2:02:11Speaker 8: George who was the other one, Lewis on the show
- 2:02:14Speaker 8: with the Brent Musburger, Ny Jane Kennedy. Then they started
- 2:02:18Speaker 8: getting people like Eron Andrews to the sideline. Now you
- 2:02:21Speaker 8: get girl play by play people, you get analysts, and
- 2:02:23Speaker 8: you're a big star. Ariel left scene. So what would
- 2:02:26Speaker 8: your advice be to a young girl who's trying to
- 2:02:28Speaker 8: get into the sports business today?
- 2:02:30Speaker 35: Be prepared. If you are prepared, you're going to get tested.
- 2:02:34Speaker 35: Men are gonna I love this story and I'll tell
- 2:02:36Speaker 35: it really quickly. I went into MLB Network's makeup room
- 2:02:40Speaker 35: and Al Lighter came in, former Mets pitcher. Well and
- 2:02:43Speaker 35: Al comes in and he goes, I don't understand this
- 2:02:45Speaker 35: strikeout prop thing you're doing. You bet these strikeout props.
- 2:02:48Speaker 35: How do you know what a picture's going to do today?
- 2:02:50Speaker 35: I said, well, I have this whole spreadsheet and all
- 2:02:52Speaker 35: these numbers. So I go through it with him and
- 2:02:53Speaker 35: I'm explaining to him how I do it. He's testing
- 2:02:56Speaker 35: me on every picture, every one of them, asking me
- 2:02:58Speaker 35: for details about them.
- 2:03:00Speaker 4: I nailed everything.
- 2:03:01Speaker 8: One of them, right, because because al Lighter doesn't know
- 2:03:05Speaker 8: the answers. But it's okay because he's a guy. But
- 2:03:08Speaker 8: if you messed up one, just one, Oh, here's this
- 2:03:12Speaker 8: blonde ding badge, you shouldn't be in sports. So even
- 2:03:15Speaker 8: though you're getting more opportunities, it's still a very choastic,
- 2:03:20Speaker 8: male dominated.
- 2:03:21Speaker 35: And I don't like to play that card. I don't
- 2:03:23Speaker 35: like to play the we don't need to. I like
- 2:03:26Speaker 35: to play the I'm gonna prove myself to your card.
- 2:03:28Speaker 35: I'm not gonna sit there and go into my hole
- 2:03:30Speaker 35: or go expose you on the internet and say you're
- 2:03:33Speaker 35: a misogynist. I'm gonna I'm gonna take the route where
- 2:03:37Speaker 35: I would rather prove you wrong, and then you're gonna
- 2:03:39Speaker 35: sit back and say, oh, okay, you do know your stuff.
- 2:03:44Speaker 8: Awesome, good for you. Joe Burrows in the NFL MVP
- 2:03:47Speaker 8: this year, right, that's you go.
- 2:03:48Speaker 4: Go Goodness.
- 2:03:49Speaker 35: You can't trust him behind that offensive mindset. It is
- 2:03:52Speaker 35: the twenty eighth ranks offensive line in the NFL, which
- 2:03:55Speaker 35: is why he can't stay healthy.
- 2:03:56Speaker 8: He missed nine games last year. But he's so good
- 2:03:59Speaker 8: and you're so good. It's great to see you. And
- 2:04:01Speaker 8: I love Clay Travis. He knows that. So the two

- 2:05:54Speaker 11: accident there. The center lane is going to be out
- 2:05:56Speaker 11: of service, and again that will be on the westbound side.

- 2:07:54Speaker 8: Shun Sunday, So the Fjords. Great song on this Sunday
- 2:07:58Speaker 8: Friday morning. I love this. It happens to be the
- 2:08:00Speaker 8: EPA administrator. But what an amazing New York politician he was,
- 2:08:06Speaker 8: mister Suffolk County and great run at the governor's race,
- 2:08:10Speaker 8: doing a tremendous job for President Trump and America. My
- 2:08:13Speaker 8: friend Lee Zelden, Lee, good morning, buddy, how are you.
- 2:08:17Speaker 29: I'm doing fantastic, good to be with you.
- 2:08:19Speaker 8: Great to have you, always, great to have you, Lee,
- 2:08:21Speaker 8: And I tell you watching Hokell. I'll get to Hochell
- 2:08:24Speaker 8: and Blakeman later in this conversation. I've been doing a
- 2:08:26Speaker 8: lot of traveling, and I talked to brus every day,
- 2:08:29Speaker 8: two or three times a day. But it's funny. It's
- 2:08:31Speaker 8: funny that she puts this moratorium on data centers, so
- 2:08:36Speaker 8: folks get ready to have slow internet and difficulty connecting
- 2:08:40Speaker 8: on your phone lines and all those things. She puts
- 2:08:44Speaker 8: a moratorium on data center construction, but yet she has
- 2:08:48Speaker 8: no issue charging New Yorkers nine dollars for congestion pricing
- 2:08:54Speaker 8: when the pollution here has not gotten any better. Please
- 2:08:59Speaker 8: make sense of that.
- 2:09:01Speaker 37: For me, well, making sense of it is the impossible part.
- 2:09:06Speaker 37: And that's why so many people just given up and
- 2:09:09Speaker 37: they sleep. They don't look back. I mean, it's it's bad.
- 2:09:13Speaker 37: I mean, I remember there was a period of time
- 2:09:14Speaker 37: where a lot of people you would maybe they would
- 2:09:17Speaker 37: head down to Florida for a few months. It's a
- 2:09:21Speaker 37: seasonal thing. But I mean the way things have gone
- 2:09:25Speaker 37: over the course of these last several years, people they
- 2:09:28Speaker 37: looked to the Carolinas, Tennessee, Texas, Florida. They all look
- 2:09:32Speaker 37: better and they're not looking back. So I mean, this
- 2:09:34Speaker 37: congestion pricing, it's just another excuse for left wing Albany
- 2:09:39Speaker 37: Democrats to put their hands in the pocket of New
- 2:09:42Speaker 37: Yorkers who are already strapped. You know, some folks would say, well,
- 2:09:45Speaker 37: it's only nine dollars, Well, for one, it's another nine dollars,
- 2:09:49Speaker 37: and it's hitting the people the hardest who can least
- 2:09:52Speaker 37: afford it. And for people who have to commute frequently.
- 2:09:56Speaker 37: This isn't like a you know, nine dollars a year,
- 2:09:59Speaker 37: nine dollars a month, for even nine dollars.
- 2:10:01Speaker 29: A week, they're having to pay it. And the whole
- 2:10:04Speaker 29: excuse for it was to make it seem like as
- 2:10:07Speaker 29: if there were these massive environmental impacts that were going
- 2:10:12Speaker 29: to be positive. I mean, I said back then, I
- 2:10:15Speaker 29: mean you'd end up with more truck traffic on the
- 2:10:17Speaker 29: Crossbox Expressway, on the Staten Island Expressway. But as his
- 2:10:21Speaker 29: new report came out of the city that we saw
- 2:10:24Speaker 29: on the news here in recent days, it's not having
- 2:10:27Speaker 29: the environmental impacts that they promised when they were passing
- 2:10:30Speaker 29: their new excuse to put their hands in the pocket
- 2:10:33Speaker 29: or cast out in New Yorkers and bs. But no
- 2:10:36Speaker 29: one can make sense of it. It's nonsensical, it is.
- 2:10:40Speaker 8: And you know it's funny now when she talks about
- 2:10:43Speaker 8: how great it is she talks about reduced traffic, she
- 2:10:46Speaker 8: talks about public transit improvements, he talks about less traffic, noise,
- 2:10:51Speaker 8: all that stuff. But like you pointed out, there was
- 2:10:53Speaker 8: also a promise that the air quality would be better
- 2:10:57Speaker 8: and the pollution would be less and that's not the case,
- 2:11:00Speaker 8: so all of a sudden, But Kathy Okele, it's almost
- 2:11:03Speaker 8: like that was never part of the equationally.
- 2:11:07Speaker 29: Yeah, I mean it's like, well, I wouldn't put it
- 2:11:10Speaker 29: this way. No one else does it anywhere else in America.
- 2:11:13Speaker 29: So is it that, you know, Kathy Oakele's that much
- 2:11:17Speaker 29: of a genius that she figured something out that no
- 2:11:19Speaker 29: one else was able to figure out. Or maybe it's
- 2:11:22Speaker 29: a really stupid idea that even the most left wing
- 2:11:26Speaker 29: governments all across the entire country, like they all haven't
- 2:11:30Speaker 29: implemented it because it's so stupid. But you know, maybe
- 2:11:36Speaker 29: there's no care for those economic impacts. You know, maybe
- 2:11:41Speaker 29: it's a punishment for the people who didn't vote for
- 2:11:45Speaker 29: her on Long Island. The people didn't vote for her
- 2:11:48Speaker 29: north of the city, in the Hudson Valley.
- 2:11:51Speaker 9: You have to community.
- 2:11:52Speaker 29: Maybe she doesn't care about you know, folks from Jersey
- 2:11:55Speaker 29: or you know, for for out of state's She wants
- 2:11:59Speaker 29: to money and they want the money. I mean, you
- 2:12:02Speaker 29: look at how much New York spends on their budget,
- 2:12:06Speaker 29: and we have millions of less people than they do
- 2:12:09Speaker 29: in Florida. We spend more on medicaid alone, just Medicaid
- 2:12:13Speaker 29: then Florida spends on their entire state budget. I mean,
- 2:12:16Speaker 29: you look at education and you have elementary school kids
- 2:12:23Speaker 29: in places like Mississippi who are scoring better on English language,
- 2:12:28Speaker 29: arts and mass then you're seeing of elementary school kids
- 2:12:33Speaker 29: in New York. But we spend what like two three
- 2:12:36Speaker 29: times more per pupil than they do in Mississippi or Florida.
- 2:12:41Speaker 29: But like it's all apartments, and when you look at
- 2:12:43Speaker 29: the metrics and how they're doing in school, you're getting
- 2:12:46Speaker 29: better outcomes in places that spends so much less. Why
- 2:12:50Speaker 29: Why is it that it costs so much to live here,
- 2:12:54Speaker 29: it costs so much to run the state's budget, and
- 2:12:57Speaker 29: you're just not getting the outcomes the results you're looking for.
- 2:13:00Speaker 29: And it's it's freaking competence. And if people are like,
- 2:13:03Speaker 29: you know, what, enough is enough?
- 2:13:04Speaker 26: Now?
- 2:13:05Speaker 8: You want to.
- 2:13:05Speaker 29: Elect Mandoni to be the New York City mayor?
- 2:13:08Speaker 26: Man?
- 2:13:09Speaker 29: Just what you thought, and you couldn't get any worse,
- 2:13:11Speaker 29: got worse.
- 2:13:14Speaker 8: And it's not just incompetence, it's corruption too. I mean,
- 2:13:16Speaker 8: I'm not going to you know, throw out stuff there
- 2:13:19Speaker 8: that hasn't been proven, but certainly there's a lot of
- 2:13:22Speaker 8: rumors about Kathy or husband and the money that he
- 2:13:25Speaker 8: has people have made from COVID to you know, to
- 2:13:28Speaker 8: stadium money's to it's corruption, it's incompetence. It's a whole
- 2:13:32Speaker 8: variety of issues. Why in New York Because New York,
- 2:13:35Speaker 8: as you just kind of pointed out, we don't have
- 2:13:37Speaker 8: a money problem. We've got a spending problem. That's the issue, right.
- 2:13:41Speaker 8: And you mentioned medicaid. I had doctor o Ozon at
- 2:13:44Speaker 8: six point thirty this morning. Okay, he is exposing medicaid
- 2:13:48Speaker 8: and medicare fraud all over the state. Queens. For example,
- 2:13:52Speaker 8: they got Chinese pharmacies raking in millions and millions of
- 2:13:55Speaker 8: dollars and no one's getting any medication. I mean, what's
- 2:13:58Speaker 8: going on in this state. You've done the same thing
- 2:14:01Speaker 8: the other guy that really busted Stacy Abrams way back when,
- 2:14:04Speaker 8: Anthony Desposito, the Long Island buddy. He's done a great
- 2:14:08Speaker 8: job with the Labor Department exposing fraud too. So not
- 2:14:11Speaker 8: just congestion pricing, which basically is fraud. The fraud that
- 2:14:16Speaker 8: you guys are uncovering all over the Trump administration is amazing.
- 2:14:22Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 2:14:23Speaker 29: I mean, we came into this position a year and
- 2:14:25Speaker 29: a half ago and made this one of our top priorities.
- 2:14:28Speaker 29: We've saved over thirty billion dollars of canceled grants, canceled
- 2:14:32Speaker 29: media subscriptions, real estate consolidation, staff efficiencies. We closed up
- 2:14:36Speaker 29: by the EPA museum that almost no one even knew
- 2:14:39Speaker 29: about her or even you know, no one visited, and
- 2:14:43Speaker 29: all told, in our first year at an agency with
- 2:14:46Speaker 29: an annual operating budget of ten billion dollars a year,
- 2:14:49Speaker 29: we found thirty billion dollars to be able to save.
- 2:14:52Speaker 29: And the reason why was because in twenty twenty four.
- 2:14:55Speaker 29: The reason why we were able to save that much
- 2:14:56Speaker 29: money is because just before we got there, in twenty four,
- 2:14:59Speaker 29: the album gated and spend over sixty billion dollars from EPA.
- 2:15:02Speaker 29: It was more money than they even knew how to spend,
- 2:15:05Speaker 29: and it was going to well connected friends. You referenced
- 2:15:08Speaker 29: the Stacy Abrams connected NGL received two billion dollars there
- 2:15:12Speaker 29: are eight pass through entities that received twenty billion dollars
- 2:15:15Speaker 29: in what was called Inflation Reduction Act. It should have
- 2:15:18Speaker 29: been called the Inflation Expansion Act when Democrats controlled everything,
- 2:15:22Speaker 29: and it goes to former Obama and Biden officials, former
- 2:15:25Speaker 29: Democratic donors. They're all passed through entities, they're all getting paid,
- 2:15:30Speaker 29: they're vig to run their piece of the pie, and
- 2:15:35Speaker 29: the American taxpayers are getting screwed. So we come in
- 2:15:38Speaker 29: zero tolerance policy for anywayte and abuse. We made it
- 2:15:41Speaker 29: a top priority out of the gate, and I'm proud
- 2:15:45Speaker 29: of it. And man, you know, like zero tolerance means
- 2:15:48Speaker 29: like if someone wants to come to me and say, hey,
- 2:15:50Speaker 29: I have an idea on how to save one thousand dollars,
- 2:15:53Speaker 29: you have my attention, because it always pissed me off
- 2:15:56Speaker 29: in government when you'd have people who may they did
- 2:15:59Speaker 29: run a federal agency and you know, you say, well,
- 2:16:02Speaker 29: I have an idea to save a thousand or one
- 2:16:03Speaker 29: hundred thousand, or a million or fifty million. It's like,
- 2:16:06Speaker 29: well that's not enough, Like you don't have my attention.
- 2:16:08Speaker 9: I need.
- 2:16:09Speaker 29: I only want to save big numbers. Man, I'll save
- 2:16:12Speaker 29: I'll save it ten dollars if you came to me
- 2:16:14Speaker 29: with an idea of how we could save money, and
- 2:16:17Speaker 29: that's what we owed the American taxpayer. And that's the
- 2:16:20Speaker 29: way that the Trump administration has approached this.
- 2:16:23Speaker 8: Done a great job all you guys, starting with you, Lee,
- 2:16:25Speaker 8: I got to be honest EPA administrator, Lee Zelden. So
- 2:16:28Speaker 8: you know the state does all these money issues. And
- 2:16:32Speaker 8: you know, Lee, as well as anybody, you did a
- 2:16:34Speaker 8: good job of pointing this out when you ran for governor,
- 2:16:36Speaker 8: that we have all this gold right under our feet
- 2:16:40Speaker 8: all over the state, right gold, and yet this idiotic
- 2:16:44Speaker 8: governor buys energy, buys energy from Pennsylvania because Pennsylvania is
- 2:16:51Speaker 8: taking advantage of what they've got and we've got the
- 2:16:55Speaker 8: same exact thing. Come Onley, what's that all about?
- 2:17:01Speaker 29: Yeah, listen, I mean this is one of the reasons
- 2:17:03Speaker 29: is why the word retard's coming back. I mean, we
- 2:17:06Speaker 29: have so much resource under us in this state. And
- 2:17:10Speaker 29: you have people who live in New York who like
- 2:17:14Speaker 29: are in communities that are a low income and that
- 2:17:18Speaker 29: they're looking across the border into Pennsylvania where in Pennsylvania
- 2:17:22Speaker 29: they're tapping into these these supplies, these resources, and they're
- 2:17:25Speaker 29: doing great. And by the way, this isn't just like
- 2:17:27Speaker 29: a Republican or Democrats thing in Pennsylvania's it's both parties
- 2:17:31Speaker 29: came together a while ago and said, you know, we
- 2:17:35Speaker 29: need natural gas. We need it in order to be
- 2:17:38Speaker 29: able to survive, to thrive. We need reliable baseball power,
- 2:17:40Speaker 29: we need affordable, affordable energy. We have these resources. It's
- 2:17:44Speaker 29: important for our economy, it's important for jobs. So they're
- 2:17:47Speaker 29: tapping into it. But in this state, the energy policy
- 2:17:50Speaker 29: is so stupid, so stupid, they won't she won't sign
- 2:17:54Speaker 29: off on the Constitution pipeline to deliver natural guests through
- 2:17:57Speaker 29: New York and into New England. You know, they won't
- 2:18:00Speaker 29: reverse the band to extract natural gas. They won't allow
- 2:18:03Speaker 29: gas took ups on new construction. They say climate goals
- 2:18:06Speaker 29: that they know that they will not be able to meet,
- 2:18:09Speaker 29: but they will cause tremendous pain on people can at
- 2:18:11Speaker 29: least afford it even trying to make any progress towards
- 2:18:15Speaker 29: these unrealistic goals. I mean, you look at the energy
- 2:18:19Speaker 29: policy where you know they're pushing WIN captain local pushes
- 2:18:22Speaker 29: WIN which is an intermittent source, as if it's a
- 2:18:24Speaker 29: substitute for base load power, and then they want to
- 2:18:27Speaker 29: throw battery energy storage systems and basically every community all
- 2:18:31Speaker 29: over the place, even though you're getting all those feedback
- 2:18:34Speaker 29: from people who just don't want it in the middle
- 2:18:35Speaker 29: of their residential neighborhood, and all you're getting is the
- 2:18:39Speaker 29: middle finger from the state upstate saying we don't want
- 2:18:42Speaker 29: solar farms. Meanwhile the state is saying, well, you know,
- 2:18:47Speaker 29: we have hcal control in the state, not local control,
- 2:18:49Speaker 29: and we're saying you're getting more solar farms. And the
- 2:18:53Speaker 29: energy policy in New York, I've been at all fifty states,
- 2:18:56Speaker 29: so in all fifty states in my first nine months
- 2:18:58Speaker 29: as EPA administrator, I've seen the good, the bad, the
- 2:19:01Speaker 29: ugly of how to do energy policy. And man, there's
- 2:19:05Speaker 29: so many red states that have so much lower energy costs,
- 2:19:09Speaker 29: so much more supply they don't deal with and they
- 2:19:12Speaker 29: don't have to deal with any brownouts or blackouts on
- 2:19:15Speaker 29: the horizon, and it's all about good governance. But in
- 2:19:20Speaker 29: New York, man, this is this is not a way
- 2:19:22Speaker 29: for you know, for New Yorkers who don't realize what's
- 2:19:24Speaker 29: going on everywhere else in the country that you might say, well,
- 2:19:27Speaker 29: maybe this is the norm this is.
- 2:19:29Speaker 9: Not the norm.
- 2:19:30Speaker 8: No, well the worst.
- 2:19:30Speaker 29: This is the exceptions the norm.
- 2:19:32Speaker 8: Now we're the worst. I mean, let's face it, and
- 2:19:34Speaker 8: will you tell me Lee, because some of this stuff
- 2:19:37Speaker 8: is a bit complicated. I understand there are some dangers
- 2:19:41Speaker 8: with data centers, I get it. But overall, if you
- 2:19:44Speaker 8: know them going in and you prepare the center, so
- 2:19:48Speaker 8: it's gonna be okay, you can't argue how valuable they are.
- 2:19:52Speaker 8: Why would she want to stop those from coming up
- 2:19:56Speaker 8: here in New York.
- 2:19:59Speaker 29: Most of the Americans want the United States to win
- 2:20:03Speaker 29: this AI race against China. And many Americans have valid
- 2:20:10Speaker 29: questions they want to ask about data center projects. They're
- 2:20:13Speaker 29: asking important questions and they should. They want to make
- 2:20:16Speaker 29: sure that when a data center is built that their
- 2:20:18Speaker 29: bills are going down, not up. And President Trump has
- 2:20:22Speaker 29: this ratepayer protection Pledge, which has true made tremendous progress,
- 2:20:26Speaker 29: and now you're having data center projects being built where
- 2:20:28Speaker 29: it's providing net benefits the ratepayers as opposed to the opposite.
- 2:20:32Speaker 29: The second piece is that a lot of Americans want
- 2:20:36Speaker 29: to make sure that a project is going to be
- 2:20:39Speaker 29: a net provider onto the grid, not a net taker
- 2:20:42Speaker 29: from the grid. There's behind the meter work. They're building
- 2:20:44Speaker 29: their own small modular reactors, they're generating their own energy,
- 2:20:49Speaker 29: and they're providing power onto the grid more than they're taking.
- 2:20:52Speaker 29: That's a good question for Americans to ask. And Americans
- 2:20:55Speaker 29: also want to know about water. I mean, is a
- 2:20:58Speaker 29: data center going to have a closed loot data center?
- 2:21:00Speaker 29: Is it going to be one hundred percent recyclable water
- 2:21:04Speaker 29: or is it going to be continuously tapping into a
- 2:21:07Speaker 29: water supply. It's good to ask these questions, but you
- 2:21:11Speaker 29: to do a moratorium, You're going to have billion, multi
- 2:21:14Speaker 29: billions of dollars and tens of billions of dollars in
- 2:21:17Speaker 29: these projects just going to other states. It's not like,
- 2:21:21Speaker 29: you know, you put you slap a one year moratorium
- 2:21:24Speaker 29: and in these data centers and go like, oh yeah, no,
- 2:21:26Speaker 29: that's that's cool. We're just going to center our hands
- 2:21:28Speaker 29: and do absolutely nothing and not go to this other
- 2:21:31Speaker 29: state that actually wants us. So you're losing out the jobs,
- 2:21:34Speaker 29: the economic benefits, and and the craziest thing or that
- 2:21:39Speaker 29: you know, you have people who are on their their
- 2:21:42Speaker 29: phone go on a social media platform saying we should
- 2:21:46Speaker 29: not have any data centers, like not realizing the irony
- 2:21:50Speaker 29: here of just how much data centers are required for
- 2:21:54Speaker 29: you to be able to power your phone and to
- 2:21:56Speaker 29: power that social media platform. I mean, we have it
- 2:21:59Speaker 29: in our lives, and we can't lose this race to China.
- 2:22:02Speaker 29: It'll be so much harder to catch up later if
- 2:22:05Speaker 29: we fell behind. And thank god that there's only there.
- 2:22:08Speaker 29: I mean, there's one too many Kathy Hockels as governors
- 2:22:10Speaker 29: of states New York. But fortunately there's only one out
- 2:22:12Speaker 29: of fifty.
- 2:22:13Speaker 8: That's it. That's true, tumaill let you run here, going
- 2:22:16Speaker 8: back to the congestion pricing thing, correct me if I'm wrong. Okay,
- 2:22:20Speaker 8: but this report on the pollution that hasn't gotten any
- 2:22:24Speaker 8: better despite what Kathy Hockel said. Originally, this comes from
- 2:22:29Speaker 8: here from New York. Right, This wasn't put out there
- 2:22:32Speaker 8: by President Trump or Leezeldon. This is New York basically
- 2:22:36Speaker 8: riding on New York.
- 2:22:38Speaker 29: Yes, that's exactly what it is. I mean, this is
- 2:22:44Speaker 29: a New York governmental study that's coming out talking about
- 2:22:49Speaker 29: how it doesn't have the environmental benefits that were promised. Shockingly, Wow,
- 2:22:54Speaker 29: we're all blown away. I was saying this four years ago,
- 2:22:57Speaker 29: that it wasn't gonna happen, right, and then you're gonna
- 2:22:59Speaker 29: have small cars, you know, small vehicle traffic going through
- 2:23:04Speaker 29: you know, small side streets of Queen's in Brooklyn, trying
- 2:23:08Speaker 29: to get routes where they don't have to pay. This
- 2:23:10Speaker 29: is what I was saying four years ago before one
- 2:23:11Speaker 29: in the place, that they would be going for other
- 2:23:14Speaker 29: routes so they don't have to pay the fee, that
- 2:23:16Speaker 29: you would have all that extra trucks, all those extra
- 2:23:19Speaker 29: trucks going through Staten Island, and the Bronx like, this
- 2:23:22Speaker 29: isn't this isn't one of those like hindsights twenty twenty.
- 2:23:24Speaker 29: You're like, oh, man, we shouldn't. We should have saw
- 2:23:26Speaker 29: it coming. No, of course we saw it coming. We
- 2:23:29Speaker 29: talked about it then, and we're like, this is a
- 2:23:32Speaker 29: really bad idea. You shouldn't go forward with it. And
- 2:23:35Speaker 29: you know, damn the torpedoes, they say they'll they'll go
- 2:23:37Speaker 29: slap their fee and put their hands in the pockets
- 2:23:40Speaker 29: of hard work in New Yorkers anyway, And the Yorkers
- 2:23:43Speaker 29: are I mean, they're pissed, yeah, and that's why so
- 2:23:46Speaker 29: many have left. And it's said, it's just it, you know,
- 2:23:49Speaker 29: said to somebody who loves the state. Who was raised
- 2:23:52Speaker 29: in a state, their families here, their life is here,
- 2:23:55Speaker 29: and because of these policies out of Alney like for
- 2:23:58Speaker 29: that reason, they hit their breaking point.
- 2:23:59Speaker 9: They I hate that.
- 2:24:00Speaker 8: I hate that too, got it. I can't stand talking
- 2:24:02Speaker 8: to Sean Hannity, and I talked to him about four
- 2:24:04Speaker 8: times a week. I got to hear every day, when
- 2:24:06Speaker 8: are you coming to Florida? When are you coming to Florida?
- 2:24:08Speaker 8: Showing be quiet? Okay, you love Long Island, Long Island
- 2:24:10Speaker 8: major star, But yeah, everybody's leaving and loving life Nashville, Tennessee.
- 2:24:15Speaker 8: Every daily I see somebody he's moving to Nashville, Tennessee.
- 2:24:18Speaker 8: So last one, Bruce Blakeman. I know you love Bruce
- 2:24:21Speaker 8: soda wide both Long Island guys. Okay, so he has
- 2:24:24Speaker 8: actually in a better position than you because when you
- 2:24:28Speaker 8: ran against Kathy, she was relatively new right, So yeah,
- 2:24:32Speaker 8: she was doing a lot of the same things that
- 2:24:34Speaker 8: Cuomo did, and she was making some mistakes. But Blakeman,
- 2:24:39Speaker 8: Blakeman now has a chance and went against this lady
- 2:24:41Speaker 8: when now, unlike your race, Lee Zeldon, she's got years
- 2:24:46Speaker 8: of mistakes that he can jump on. How lucky is.
- 2:24:50Speaker 9: He right, yeah.
- 2:24:52Speaker 29: I mean there are people in politics where you know,
- 2:24:56Speaker 29: they just aren't known, and if they're known, then people
- 2:24:59Speaker 29: will like them, but they have to get their name out.
- 2:25:01Speaker 29: And then there are people in politics where as more
- 2:25:04Speaker 29: and more people become familiar with you, the more people
- 2:25:07Speaker 29: realize that you need to go, like you're not good,
- 2:25:10Speaker 29: you need to leave. And that's the reality that you
- 2:25:14Speaker 29: have right now in the in the state. I mean,
- 2:25:16Speaker 29: like every single New Yorker, you could ask them, like,
- 2:25:20Speaker 29: what's what's your breaking point in the state? Low income,
- 2:25:23Speaker 29: middle income, high income. You can be from the city,
- 2:25:25Speaker 29: a suburb, rural New York. You ask everyone, like, what's
- 2:25:28Speaker 29: your breaking point in New York? They've thought about it.
- 2:25:31Speaker 29: It's crazy, like you'll get a detailed answer.
- 2:25:34Speaker 8: Like why why why do.
- 2:25:36Speaker 29: You think about this?
- 2:25:37Speaker 22: What?
- 2:25:37Speaker 29: Why is that your breaking point? And there and it
- 2:25:40Speaker 29: all gets back to the same thing. It's just the
- 2:25:42Speaker 29: policies of the state. They feel restricted. Freedom. Economic freedom
- 2:25:48Speaker 29: is freedom you know, with with regards to their physical safety. Freedom,
- 2:25:52Speaker 29: you know, going back and thinking of you know, pictures
- 2:25:55Speaker 29: of you know, Kathy Hokle wearing you know, not wearing masks,
- 2:25:58Speaker 29: you know, staying with four year olds that'd have to
- 2:26:00Speaker 29: wear masks during COVID right because of because of these pursuits,
- 2:26:06Speaker 29: you know, people have just they've realized what is causing
- 2:26:10Speaker 29: this decline.
- 2:26:10Speaker 9: Of the state.
- 2:26:12Speaker 29: And the more people get that, which has happened now
- 2:26:15Speaker 29: over the course of these last few years, the more
- 2:26:17Speaker 29: people are like, you know, it's not like, oh, I
- 2:26:19Speaker 29: know you know, I know her now, like hey, this
- 2:26:21Speaker 29: is great and comfortable, whether you know she's my governor,
- 2:26:24Speaker 29: have a lot of pride. It's it's like, man, we
- 2:26:28Speaker 29: need to do a heck of a lot better than this.
- 2:26:31Speaker 29: And a lot of folks left New York before I
- 2:26:34Speaker 29: ran because they had enough. A lot of people left
- 2:26:37Speaker 29: New York right after I ran. They're like, man, this,
- 2:26:40Speaker 29: you know, this is just going to continue to get worse.
- 2:26:42Speaker 9: You know.
- 2:26:43Speaker 29: Fortunately there's still you know, a bunch of people who
- 2:26:45Speaker 29: are still here and you can make a difference.
- 2:26:48Speaker 9: But doesn't happen.
- 2:26:49Speaker 29: On its own. I mean, folks need to you need
- 2:26:51Speaker 29: to show up and make it happen. And you can't
- 2:26:53Speaker 29: just expect everyone else to.
- 2:26:54Speaker 9: Do it for you.
- 2:26:55Speaker 8: It's exhausting. Just trust me, Lee, Okay, It's much easier
- 2:26:58Speaker 8: to go to the beach in Hollendale today. It's exhausting,
- 2:27:01Speaker 8: but man, I love talking to you, I really do. You.
- 2:27:04Speaker 8: You're so fantastic epa administrator. You're a great politician here.
- 2:27:08Speaker 8: You're always going to be a great, great, great, great
- 2:27:10Speaker 8: New Yorker. And I just love talking to you. Man.
- 2:27:12Speaker 8: I'm so proud of you. What a great job. Thank
- 2:27:14Speaker 8: you so much.
- 2:27:16Speaker 29: Thanks San, It's always good to be man.
- 2:27:17Speaker 8: You two families. Good by the way, your wife and daughters.
- 2:27:19Speaker 8: Everybody's good.
- 2:27:21Speaker 29: Girls are girls are heading back to their third year
- 2:27:23Speaker 29: of school. Wow, and you know, still having scored to
- 2:27:26Speaker 29: Peter Luger's.
- 2:27:27Speaker 8: Invite, so you know, keep it all in.
- 2:27:29Speaker 15: All in perspective, yep.
- 2:27:31Speaker 29: Although I'll never I'll never let you live down the
- 2:27:33Speaker 29: very first time I did an interview with the great
- 2:27:36Speaker 29: Sid Rosenberg, and it was Bernie and Sid yep, And
- 2:27:39Speaker 29: right before I came on air, you were saying, you
- 2:27:43Speaker 29: know a couple of unkind things about Shirley and Mastic.
- 2:27:46Speaker 9: Where it?
- 2:27:47Speaker 29: Where is my hometown? And then I come on air
- 2:27:49Speaker 29: and then you ask me where I'm from, and I tell.
- 2:27:52Speaker 9: You I'm sure.
- 2:27:54Speaker 29: And for all those listeners out there who were like,
- 2:27:57Speaker 29: why does why did Sid Rosenberg always call Zelden the
- 2:28:01Speaker 29: Pride of Shirley, Long Island. You have to you have
- 2:28:04Speaker 29: to be such a hardcore long time since Rosenberg listener
- 2:28:07Speaker 29: that you know of the very first time I came
- 2:28:10Speaker 29: on the backstory, which was just freaking hilarious.
- 2:28:12Speaker 8: That is because my uncle Leon and then Cynthia lived
- 2:28:15Speaker 8: in Shirley. We lived in Brooklyn. First of all, it
- 2:28:17Speaker 8: took like five hours to get there, okay, And second
- 2:28:20Speaker 8: of all, it looked a little rough. And let's be honest,
- 2:28:23Speaker 8: your girls were doing homework one night there were gunshots outside.
- 2:28:25Speaker 8: I mean to remind you of that, okay, but I
- 2:28:27Speaker 8: know it's a true story. But yes, I used to
- 2:28:31Speaker 8: make fun of Shirley and call you the pride of Shirley.
- 2:28:34Speaker 8: But it does seem like, you know, Bruce does a
- 2:28:36Speaker 8: great job in Nashau County, that ed ro Main and
- 2:28:38Speaker 8: those folks are doing a very good job in Suffolk
- 2:28:40Speaker 8: County too, Yes.
- 2:28:42Speaker 13: No doubt.
- 2:28:43Speaker 29: I mean Long Island is I mean, that is where
- 2:28:47Speaker 29: I'm born, born and raised, and you know, they have
- 2:28:50Speaker 29: their challenges just like everywhere else in the country. But
- 2:28:53Speaker 29: I mean, there's a reason why when President Trump was
- 2:28:55Speaker 29: in Nassau County, you were hearing statements about how people
- 2:28:59Speaker 29: will not rest working inside this Trump administration until every
- 2:29:03Speaker 29: county is as safe as Nasau County and and you know,
- 2:29:07Speaker 29: the same thing goes, you know with regards to Long
- 2:29:09Speaker 29: Island as a whole. You have competent leadership in both counties.
- 2:29:14Speaker 29: And uh yeah, so everything that we're saying about Kathy
- 2:29:16Speaker 29: Holkal or man Donnie out of the city should be
- 2:29:20Speaker 29: no negative reflection on great leadership that we have in
- 2:29:23Speaker 29: Suffie County that had Romain in that team, and Bruce
- 2:29:25Speaker 29: Blakeman and his team in Nassau, no doubt, just.
- 2:29:27Speaker 8: A week could go today. The President was there in
- 2:29:29Speaker 8: Nasau County. I was standing right there by the State
- 2:29:31Speaker 8: You were right there. I was, Yeah, that was awesome.
- 2:29:34Speaker 29: Lis and Kelsey, Grammar and everyone else is like, man,
- 2:29:38Speaker 29: that did Rosenberg.

- 2:33:19Speaker 8: They're six points behind us, of course, but somehow they're
- 2:33:23Speaker 8: number one.
- 2:33:23Speaker 7: How are we going to do that?
- 2:33:24Speaker 8: I don't know, but they're number one. They're the only
- 2:33:26Speaker 8: show in the history of radio that is getting so
- 2:33:30Speaker 8: savagely beaten that they shaved an hour from their morning
- 2:33:35Speaker 8: show and How to Pay Marks and all more money
- 2:33:38Speaker 8: to go on at nine and I'm kicking his ass toill.
- 2:33:41Speaker 8: That is winning. They're actually winning. They have a promo
- 2:33:43Speaker 8: up they declared thank you in New York for making
- 2:33:46Speaker 8: us number one. They got a one point four. I
- 2:33:49Speaker 8: got a seven point four. Are they number one? Exactly?
- 2:33:53Speaker 8: Curtis Leever should never leave his house. Between his election
- 2:33:57Speaker 8: results and his radio ratings. He's a guy I loved
- 2:34:01Speaker 8: for twenty plus years. He's a complete failure, complete And
- 2:34:06Speaker 8: they have the balls, these scumbags, to put up a
- 2:34:10Speaker 8: promo that says we're number one, thank you. In New York.
- 2:34:14Speaker 8: They got a one point four the last two weeks.
- 2:34:16Speaker 8: Those numbers are worse than Lennon Michael got and I
- 2:34:20Speaker 8: put Lennon Michael out of business. Worse. I've never seen
- 2:34:24Speaker 8: numbers like that. Never. Maybe when I did The Sports
- 2:34:27Speaker 8: Guys with Scott Kaplan back in two thousand. Maybe maybe then, well,
- 2:34:33Speaker 8: you know, don't forget back then Howard was still on
- 2:34:35Speaker 8: interrestrial radio. You had Scott and Todd yet I miss
- 2:34:38Speaker 8: and all that stuff, and we were two kids from Florida,
- 2:34:41Speaker 8: but we got killed. Maybe then we got a one
- 2:34:43Speaker 8: point four. But for a couple of veterans and a
- 2:34:47Speaker 8: Hall of Famer, they get a one point four and
- 2:34:49Speaker 8: that to claim victory. I mean, that's a real scumbag move.
- 2:34:57Speaker 8: They got there, They got their salesman coming here. Yeah,
- 2:35:01Speaker 8: there are other salespeople listen to me. I mean, it's
- 2:35:04Speaker 8: it's a joke, an absolute joke. But all funny games
- 2:35:10Speaker 8: in the radio business these days, right Lewis, Yeah.
- 2:35:13Speaker 7: Why not just declare your number one? Yeah, just saying numbers.
- 2:35:16Speaker 8: So these idiots, the eight people listening to them, go, oh,
- 2:35:19Speaker 8: I knew it, man, I knew you'd beat Sid. I
- 2:35:22Speaker 8: knew you because that's what Curtis said. Of course when
- 2:35:24Speaker 8: he got there, that Sid's wayne is over. And well,
- 2:35:29Speaker 8: you know he never did come even close. Even early
- 2:35:32Speaker 8: on when he started, you would think he's gonna get
- 2:35:34Speaker 8: this unbelievable momentum. I beat him by three points, then
- 2:35:37Speaker 8: three four, now with six five and a half. We'll
- 2:35:40Speaker 8: find out today what the next week is. But yeah,
- 2:35:43Speaker 8: oh we knew what we knew. What Curtis, you're the best,
- 2:35:46Speaker 8: You're the best? Or Sid does is talk about himself,
- 2:35:49Speaker 8: himself and Israel. That's it. That's all he does. Sid
- 2:35:53Speaker 8: Rosenberg talks about himself and Israel. That's it. So I
- 2:35:57Speaker 8: had six guests on today, none of which talked about
- 2:35:59Speaker 8: is six six. Oh Katam mentioned Isiel. I'm sorry and
- 2:36:05Speaker 8: talking about myself. Well, I am going to the Yankee
- 2:36:08Speaker 8: game tomorrow. I did mention that Curtis says that till
- 2:36:11Speaker 8: he lies. Yeah, people said to me Are you nervous?
- 2:36:14Speaker 8: Curtis is back in the mornings. You gotta stop it.
- 2:36:18Speaker 8: Nothing makes me nervous. If I Miss were still alive
- 2:36:20Speaker 8: and he was on in the mornings, it wouldn't make
- 2:36:22Speaker 8: me nervous. No one makes me nervous. You're not gonna
- 2:36:25Speaker 8: beat us. This show is the best. It's not even close.
- 2:36:29Speaker 8: The guests, the banter lose, funny as hell, the music.
- 2:36:36Speaker 8: What are you talking about? Two old, decrepit guys using
- 2:36:41Speaker 8: the same stupid language they've been using for twenty five
- 2:36:46Speaker 8: years on airy Larry Mullah smooler. This is what people want.
- 2:36:52Speaker 8: I had a young girl in studio today, twenty four
- 2:36:54Speaker 8: years old, huge star in the sports business. Could you
- 2:36:57Speaker 8: ever imagine that girl is sitting down with Curtis and
- 2:37:01Speaker 8: Larry even people at this station. I mean, no one
- 2:37:04Speaker 8: does what we do. Nobody, nobody, but I not nerve.
- 2:37:09Speaker 8: I'm nervous. I said I'd kill him, and I kill him.
- 2:37:13Speaker 8: Thank you New York number one, baby, look at us
- 2:37:18Speaker 8: one point four. Actually I showed you the promo, actually
- 2:37:23Speaker 8: said thank you New York. We could not have done
- 2:37:25Speaker 8: this without you effect. I mean, we didn't do what
- 2:37:30Speaker 8: his name of that PD he's a nice guy. Got
- 2:37:32Speaker 8: me med tickets?
- 2:37:32Speaker 9: Is it?
- 2:37:33Speaker 8: Tom Cuddy? Tom Cuddy? Shit? Should he should not do that?
- 2:37:37Speaker 8: That's he should really make sure that that comes down today.
- 2:37:41Speaker 8: He really should. That's embarrassing. He's a good guy, Tom,
- 2:37:44Speaker 8: He's been a program director for a long time. He's
- 2:37:47Speaker 8: a respected guy. You're gonna put up a promo when
- 2:37:50Speaker 8: your show's losing by it's not a point, not two
- 2:37:52Speaker 8: points by six points? Thanking New Yorkers for making you
- 2:37:56Speaker 8: number one? Really, I mean if I called Hannity about this,
- 2:38:01Speaker 8: he would he would laugh. He wouldn't believe it. Well,
- 2:38:04Speaker 8: Bob Pittman or what is her name? This is the
- 2:38:07Speaker 8: young lady that's in charge of Clear Channel here in
- 2:38:09Speaker 8: New York. They wouldn't believe it. They wouldn't believe it.
- 2:38:12Speaker 8: You don't do that. You don't lie, just flat out.
- 2:38:16Speaker 8: Especially again, if he was a point back, two points back,
- 2:38:20Speaker 8: you're five or six points back. You don't do that.
- 2:38:24Speaker 8: Come on, man, Craig Lennon, you happy about that?
- 2:38:27Speaker 7: Oh?
- 2:38:28Speaker 8: Whoa? He listens to us anyway, It doesn't matter. All right,
- 2:38:33Speaker 8: we got one more segment to go. That's so much fun.
- 2:38:36Speaker 8: I love those segments. They go why do you talk
- 2:38:39Speaker 8: about him? That's exactly what he wants. So what, I'm
- 2:38:41Speaker 8: exposing him as a liar if that's what he wants. Good,
- 2:38:45Speaker 8: if that's gonna make him happy. Sid pointed out that
- 2:38:48Speaker 8: I'm lying again, and good for him. That's fine. I
- 2:38:51Speaker 8: don't hate the guy anyway. I told you that a
- 2:38:53Speaker 8: million times. I don't hate him. He's just a sick guy.
- 2:38:56Speaker 8: He's got issues. He thinks he's the mayor. He walks
- 2:38:59Speaker 8: out on the track that says New York's mayor. He
- 2:39:04Speaker 8: literally wears a jacket that says the people's mayor, new
- 2:39:07Speaker 8: York's mayor. No one lost in their two elections as
- 2:39:11Speaker 8: badly as this guy has. He walks around the jacket
- 2:39:14Speaker 8: that says he's mayor, and now he's promoting his radio show,
- 2:39:17Speaker 8: which really should be taken off the air as number one.
- 2:39:20Speaker 8: How can I hate that guy? I mean, this is
- 2:39:23Speaker 8: like Lindsey Clancy. I mean, basically, put him in a
- 2:39:27Speaker 8: white room with white walls and call it a day.
- 2:39:31Speaker 8: He's the mayor and he hosts the number one radio show.
- 2:39:33Speaker 7: He's got a vest that says that number one, Thank
- 2:39:36Speaker 7: you new York and New York's mayor.
- 2:39:41Speaker 8: You can't make it up. God bless him. Though he's
- 2:39:44Speaker 8: not a bad guy, he's just stops. Maybe he is
- 2:39:48Speaker 8: a bad We'll be right by it.

- 2:43:07Speaker 9: What you said before.
- 2:43:09Speaker 26: You're supposed to come on like Caravell the clowns, you know.
- 2:43:12Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, certain days call for a different tone.
- 2:43:17Speaker 8: And I admittedly I have a bit of a somber
- 2:43:19Speaker 8: tone today. But I tell you what, I really enjoyed
- 2:43:22Speaker 8: having you speak to Mike Theiaza.
- 2:43:23Speaker 13: I hope you enjoyed that.
- 2:43:24Speaker 26: I enjoyed it too. An opportunity to thank thank him.
- 2:43:27Speaker 26: I should also thank the Mets. I mean, you know,
- 2:43:29Speaker 26: they put it over ten million dollars, and so did
- 2:43:32Speaker 26: George Steinberg a ten million each. And they both gave
- 2:43:35Speaker 26: me tremendous help with something people don't remember now, the
- 2:43:40Speaker 26: Twin Towers Fund. We raised two hundred and thirty million dollars, wow,
- 2:43:47Speaker 26: and gave every single penny to the widows and and
- 2:43:51Speaker 26: family of the firefighters and police officers. The administrative money
- 2:43:55Speaker 26: we raised separately, and George and Fred paid for most
- 2:44:01Speaker 26: of that. The Mets gave me my offices. The Yankees
- 2:44:05Speaker 26: gave us a tremendous amount of our equipment and helped
- 2:44:09Speaker 26: us with our fundraising, I would say. And they worked
- 2:44:13Speaker 26: together to get baseball to do things for you.
- 2:44:17Speaker 8: And you know it's funny. You may remember there was
- 2:44:19Speaker 8: this huge battle. It was really more Bobby be love
- 2:44:22Speaker 8: Bobby but he's crazy, more Bobby V than Tory. But
- 2:44:25Speaker 8: Bobby b was like, hey, we were the better ones.
- 2:44:27Speaker 8: It was us. It was the match, not the Yankees,
- 2:44:29Speaker 8: and I think at one point Tory finally got pissed off.
- 2:44:32Speaker 8: But there was a bit of a pissing match between
- 2:44:34Speaker 8: those two guys.
- 2:44:35Speaker 26: That one number there was they did they I would say, honestly,
- 2:44:38Speaker 26: you know, I'm a Yankee fan. They did different things,
- 2:44:42Speaker 26: somewhat but very very close. I'll give you an example.
- 2:44:45Speaker 26: Paul O'Neill was injured during that period that wasn't traveling
- 2:44:48Speaker 26: with the team. He volunteered at our Family Center for
- 2:44:52Speaker 26: three days, twelve hours each day. Never told anybody, Wow,
- 2:44:59Speaker 26: Mike was at the at the center three times. Uh,
- 2:45:04Speaker 26: I couldn't. I couldn't. Honestly, the Yankee fan meant, I
- 2:45:06Speaker 26: couldn't tell the difference.
- 2:45:10Speaker 8: So it's something you know all week next week. I
- 2:45:12Speaker 8: will miss two days a week after in Vegas, but
- 2:45:14Speaker 8: I'll be your all week next week starting Monday morning.
- 2:45:17Speaker 8: So until then, from all of us, if we see
- 2:45:19Speaker 8: you tomorrow Yankee Stadium, great, If not, have a great weekend,
- 2:45:23Speaker 8: peace making your name. This is what you can see from.
- 2:45:43Speaker 2: Your worst day.
- 2:45:45Speaker 21: I'm taken.
- 2:45:47Speaker 25: I'm even lending your back to the first day I've taken.
- 2:45:57Speaker 20: And just deserve.

- 2:46:22Speaker 10: you need you can trust Talk Radio seventy seven WABC,
- 2:46:28Speaker 10: WABC traffic and transit well again.
- 2:46:31Speaker 11: Heading out onto the area roadways from the Applebank traffic desks,
- 2:46:34Speaker 11: we still have the lays coming inbound on the Lie
- 2:46:36Speaker 11: into Queens Boulevard. There was an earlier accident there in
- 2:46:38Speaker 11: the center lane that has now been pared up and
- 2:46:41Speaker 11: out of the way. We continue to have a problem
- 2:46:43Speaker 11: westbound on Route four getting out to Route sixty one
- 2:46:46Speaker 11: in Paramus.
- 2:46:47Speaker 15: The right lane going to be out.
- 2:46:48Speaker 11: That will continue in the northbound on the turnpike getting
- 2:46:51Speaker 11: up to in or Change thirteen. An accident that went
- 2:46:53Speaker 11: off on the shoulder, so that southbound and that would
