  Speaker 1: big lottery winner announced as you did for all of
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: our listeners yesterday larry you give us the specifics again
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: 847 million Eight hundred and forty seven million. Do we
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: know the name of the winner yet?
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Not yet. Nobody has come forward. Nobody has come forward.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: We do know where it was purchased now at a
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Wegmans grocery store in Montvale, New Jersey, which is really
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: just across the river.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: Wegmans.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: That's a great supermarket. And if you're into salads, un salad,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: you want to go to Wegmans if you're going to
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: any supermarket. They have the best selection of greens and
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: all the things you would put in a salad. And
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: a food bar.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, you go there and you can get Mexican food.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: You can get Indian food. They have the most extensive
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: food bar I have ever seen.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: So let's trace previous winners who have all of a
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: sudden gone MIA. We know what happens. They contact a lawyer.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: The lawyer says, hey, we need a financial planner. You
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: need to basically be in the witness protection program. Don't
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: let anybody know where you are. Plan on moving. You
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: will get deluged with people you forgot all about who
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: are suddenly your very best friends. So plan. Plan potentially
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: on moving out and starting a new life with all
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: the money you're going to have. And then they tell
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: you how much you're going to be paid in taxes.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: In New Jersey, you don't have to have your name released.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: You have that option. Not every state has that. Most
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: states are getting it now, but not every state has that.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: So you don't have to have your name out. And
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: do you know who the director of the Lottery Commission
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: is in New Jersey? Guess what his name is?
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: No.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Jim Carrey.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Jim Carrey. Does he look like Jim Carrey?
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: No.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: But, you know, he's got a good personality. This is
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: what he said yesterday.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Check your tickets, because prizes for Powerball range from $ 4
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: and up, all the way up.
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: To $ 847 million.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: So make sure you check the ticket.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: You can go to any lottery retailer, scan your ticket
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: at the scanner, and you can find out.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Maybe you won $ 4.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Maybe you won $ 847 million.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: It is very possible, he said, because this has happened before.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: It is very possible, if it's not Natalie. If it's
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: not Natalie, because believe me, she would have checked her ticket.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: And she only buys one at a time. Are you kidding?
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: That would be amazing. Yeah, no, she buys one. Most
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: people buy like $ 20 worth of them.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Wait a second, Larry. Apparently, the winner only bought the
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: one ticket.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: The last time. The last time they won, not this time.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Uh-oh. Uh-oh. I'm telling you. And Natalie loves her family
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: and her family loves her. This is not a dysfunctional family.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Like you don't want to go with daddy and mommy
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: wherever they went to retire. Down in Florida, right? It's
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: now costly to move to Florida. It's not like it
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: used to be. It's up there. I could easily see
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the segue taking place, and she'll be joining John Gambling
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: in retirement down there. I'm telling you, I feel it.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I feel it in my bones.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Well, the fact that she texted me at 2.44 in
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: the morning leads me to believe that, no, she didn't win,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: unless she's up because she's so excited. Now, there probably wasn't.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be doing any work if I won the...
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: If I won the lottery. No, she was messaging us
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: about work stuff, so I don't know. That would not
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: be me.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: I have a feeling it's somebody that hasn't checked their
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: ticket yet.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Probably. That's the thing. Let me ask you a question, Larry.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: You've been with Natalie a long time. She plays the lottery,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: you play the lottery. Did she ever say what she
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: would do with her winnings? Did she ever say that?
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: The only one thing she said to me, which is
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: so pure Natalie, She said, the first thing I would do,
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: now most people would say, I'm going to buy a yacht.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: I'm going to get a nice house. I'm going to move.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: I'm going to invest it all. She said I would
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: pay off my kids' student loans.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. And then she could really cut all
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: ties and leave. Hey, kids, you're on your own. I'm
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: going to give you a little nest egg. I'm paying
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: off all your student loans. You don't need to be
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: dependent on me anymore. You're going to have your own nest.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: We're going to invest it so it makes money on
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: its own. I'm out of here. I'm down in Florida.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: I think a lot of people that play the lottery
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: already have it lined up what they want to do.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: And I'd love to get a talk back about this
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: because I know I do. I have like a list.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: I have a top 10 list of things I would do.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: So do me a favor and leave us a talk back.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: If you are the same or if you have a
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: couple of things that you will definitely do, you go
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: to the iHeartRadio app, you look for 710WOR, And then
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: the talkback page. There's a little red microphone. You record
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: what you want to say. If you don't like it,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: you can record it again. And then we play you
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: on the air. And the best talkback of the day,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Windsor Curtis Lewin, Larry Menti in the morning t-shirt, the
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: best talkback of the week. That's today. We're going to
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: figure that out. Takes home the C crane radio. So
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: you might want to get in on that. This may
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: be your permanent position here now. So get prepared.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Okay. Early, you know, early to bed, early to rise,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: because you've got to get in here really early, Chris.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I have a feeling that Natalie is halfway out the door. Hey, look,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: I've been right so far in terms of the election results.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I'm on a roll here. Yeah, you're on a high streak.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to blow it in this one. You've
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: got like a one in 200,000, more than that, one
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: in two million chance.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: We'll know on Monday, won't we?
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll know on Monday.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Because if she isn't here on Monday, that's it. She's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the winner. Anyway, talking about winners, remember the big story
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: we talked about involving Jersey where the Republicans got wiped out?
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Except for Chris Smith, who you pointed out, doesn't want
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: anybody to know about him. He flies under the radar screen,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: the congressman from, what is that, Ocean County, right?
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Ocean County. He is the longest-serving congressman. Tie for
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: it right now. the longest serving congressman. He's won like
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: 48 elections.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: But there was that battle royale in the community meeting,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: which you must host, you know, when you are the
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: mayor of a village, a township, a small municipality where
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the gadflies show up, where the people can be heard.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Remember mayor Bianchini who got into fisticuffs, wanted to kill
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: the guy who was asking questions.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: He wanted to get in fisticuffs.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: They held him back. The cops held him back. Well,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: he was up for re-election. Guess what happened?
• 6:46
  Speaker 7: Yeah, he lost.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: He lost to the Democrats.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: A wipeout!
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: A wipeout!
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Well, the problem is it's a wipeout across the country.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, all the attention has been on Congress, of course,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: and then the governor's races, but nobody's talked about What
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: has happened in the state legislators and in the state
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: senates and at the county level, this was pervasive. I mean,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: it was across the country. So, and it was deep.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: And listen, this kind of stuff has happened before. I mean,
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: you know, I push back all the time and everybody's
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: saying this is the biggest that ever happened because it's not.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: It's far from it. This has happened under FDR. It's
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: happened under Reagan. It has happened under Clinton. It happened
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: twice under Obama. So this is not unusual. This is democracy.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: But the fact that it was so deep and went
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: into municipalities, went into counties where Republicans were losing and
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: losing and losing.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: All across the country. Or as we're going to be
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: talking about later. Mike Lawler yesterday on CNN said, Jesus
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Christ couldn't have won this election, meaning his election that
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: involves Rockland County, Putnam, and Westchester. And remember, he is
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: the most in the middle Republican you're going to find.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: You'll find him on MSNOW, CNN, Fox News. You know,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: he always walks out finally. He said, Jesus Christ couldn't
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: have won the election. And I believe him on that.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, I don't. I think Jesus Christ would be a
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: great candidate.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: No, I want that to stick to him because the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: last person who used Jesus Christ in a reference, remember,
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: was John Lennon of the Beatles.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: That's right. He got in trouble for that.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: The Beatles are bigger than Jesus Christ.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the statement he was making, he's always been,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: even before he died, he was talking about that, how
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: upset he was about that, how he was misquoted and
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: the fact that he was misunderstood and He thought that
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: was a bad thing. Like, that's ridiculous. He wasn't bragging,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: which is the way that the media played it at
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: the time. But yeah, I mean, the Republicans have to
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: lick their wounds right now, but now the Republicans have
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: to lead. And did Natalie win the lottery? I doubt it,
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: but I'd love it if it happened because— By the way,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: did I ever mention she's my favorite person.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: In the world?
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: In the whole world.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Right now she is, in case she wasn't literally.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, you're going to send that over to her, that guy, right? Yes,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: that's right.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: I'm going to do a little text. Did I ever
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: tell you how much I love you?
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Well, wouldn't that be ironic if she moved down to
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Florida to be near her parents, which so many children do,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: if they have the wherewithal, and she's now joining John
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Gambling for brunch with In the morning, because remember, he decided,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: morning radio, no, it's killing me. Larry, that one day
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: you took off for a family event. We were lucky
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: enough to get the iconic John Gambling on. And I said,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: why'd you leave? You were at the top of your game, John.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: He goes, it was killing me. And both he and
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I agreed it's going to take 10 years off our life. Larry,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: be prepared. It's going to take 10 years off your
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: life doing Morning Tribe. And I can just see it
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: somewhere in the west coast of Florida having brunch. Natalie,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: with one of the many gambling she's worked with over
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the years here at WSB. here at WOR. You know what?
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: I pray that's true. I hope that's true. I doubt
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: that's true. So we'll probably see Natalie. And as far
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: as taking 10 years off my life, it already has.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: This week, doing the marathon and then doing the election
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: took 10 years off my life. I'm finally feeling it
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: this morning. When we come back, when you fly to
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Logan Airport, they actually had a contest to see who
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: would be the voice over the announcers, the people that
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: would welcome you to Logan Airport and to welcome you
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: to Boston.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: If we had that kind of contest here, who should
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: we have? Who would win? We're going to talk about
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: that when we come back. Plus a chance to see
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Def Leppard and the Goo Goo Dolls at 825. This
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: is such a great idea, and I wish we would
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: do it here for JFK, LaGuardia, Newark. It was a
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: wicked tough competition, but Boston's Logan International Airport now has
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: its voice. Airport officials held a contest to find the
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: voice of Logan, where the winner would greet travelers and
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: natives with a signature Boston accent. And a 40-year-old HVAC
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: worker named Chris Donacy entered.
• 11:19
  Speaker 8: That night, specifically, there was three days left in the
• 11:25
  Speaker 8: competition to send your video in. And he was like,
• 11:28
  Speaker 8: you've got to get down there, make the video, send
• 11:30
  Speaker 8: it in.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, his mom convinced him to send in the audition,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: and he won. He will now be the voice of Logan.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: I didn't hear the Boston traditional accent, which was what
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: they advertised at first, but he's got a great voice.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Want to hear his audition tape?
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Yes, please, yes.
• 11:47
  Speaker 9: Welcome to Boston Logan International Airport, front door to the
• 11:52
  Speaker 9: capital of hot, hustle, and hometown pride. This city runs
• 11:57
  Speaker 9: on iced coffee, raw ambitions, An unbeatable team spirit.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: So let's go. Oh, that is so weak. That is so...
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Who did he pay off? And by the way, you know,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: we talk about all the socialist mayors now.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: L.A.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Now has a socialist mayor. The first socialist mayor is
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: in Boston. She refused to meet with Donald Trump. You know,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: because they're taking over, they probably would have demanded 38
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: different versions of it in 38 different languages.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: That's right. That's exactly right. He's got a great voice, though.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, the depth of that voice. It's not that
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Boston accent.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: No, not at all. Not at all. So now, if
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: we had the same competition here and they wanted a
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: traditional New York accent, God, who would that be?
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Any ideas? Well, I think we could bifurcate that. I
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: have had an influence on Natalie Migliore ever since we
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: consummated this relationship when Tom Cuddy brought us together, our
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: program director, back in March. She is sounding more and
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: more like she's from Brooklyn. So you're saying Natalie should
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: do it? Natalie and me. You need a male voice.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: You need a female voice, a rotation. Who's more New
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: York sounding than me? And Natalie's like really catching up quick.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Do a quick audition. What would you say? Hey, you've
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: arrived at JFK. If you're an illegal alien, be prepared
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: to go back as soon as possible. ICE agents are
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: waiting with you at Transportation TSA stand. Let them know
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: straight up.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: We need to workshop that a little bit if you
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: want to win, but I.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Think that'd be great. I think, look, my voice needs
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: to be heard in the subway. The problem is 90%
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: of the audio is, you can't hear it, but they
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: have voices now in the subway that I think, man,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: I'm having a psychotic episode. What the hell is that?
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: I would be the perfect voice, right? And also, whatever
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: happened to that, you know, watch the closing doors. You know,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: that should be me. I've earned that. I've earned that
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: 47 years in the subways. I think you get the subways,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Natalie gets the airport.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: That's the way I work.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: That's a good idea. There you go.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: That's fair, but you know New York City is just
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: like Boston, you know, socialist now. They're going to want
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: 38 different versions in 38 separate languages.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Contest over, I guess. Let's get to some talkbacks.
• 14:27
  Speaker 10: I came into quite a bit of money once.
• 14:29
  Speaker 11: It's certainly not like this. And I will be coming
• 14:32
  Speaker 11: into even a larger amount in the near future. And
• 14:35
  Speaker 11: at both times, I took the advice of a financial counselor.
• 14:40
  Speaker 11: Sit down, take a deep breath. You'll do nothing with
• 14:42
  Speaker 11: it for six months. I put into a money market
• 14:44
  Speaker 11: account within a very safe investment firm. And then I
• 14:48
  Speaker 11: made decisions after six months. Best thing I ever did
• 14:51
  Speaker 11: because it still pays me today and it will forever.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Oh, you know what that sounds like? Remember De Niro
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: in Goodfellas when he tells everybody who did the Lufthansa heist,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: you don't spend a penny of this for a year, remember?
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: And everybody who did got whacked.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Yep, yep, yeah, exactly. I think that's tremendous advice, except
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: when you win this much. Like you didn't say how
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: much you won. When you won this much, it's really
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: difficult not to spend some money right away. There's no
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: way you put all that away. You got to have
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: a little bit of fun with it. Now, my idea
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: was always just start investing in real estate. Buy in
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: places you'd like to go, you know, like get a
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: place in Florida, get a place down the Jersey Shore,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: get a place in Del Mar.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: By the way, we have an addition to the theory
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: that Natalie won the lottery and that's why she hasn't
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: been around in two days. You know, our other colleague, Izzy.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Who is the board operator for Mark Simone and so
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: many other shows. He actually works at that Wegmans.
• 15:53
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I know.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: So he has to be here at 7 o'clock. We'll
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: see if he shows up.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: What about if he bought the ticket with Natalie's money
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: and they agreed to share it?
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: You are unbelievable. Oh, my God.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Don't you find that odd that Izzy, who used to
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: be with me at WABC. There's nothing odd yet.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: She was offered today. Izzy comes in at 7. We'll
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: wait and see.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Crash, be prepared to cover Izzy's shit.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Wow. Something that's a one in 240 million chance. He's
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: got two people definitely winning it.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Don't you think that's odd that Izzy, our colleague here,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: actually works at that Wegmans in, what is that, Montfail?
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a huge coincidence. Okay, let's get some more talkbacks.
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: Good morning.
• 16:39
  Speaker 13: Now, if you wanted to have an iconic voice welcoming
• 16:42
  Speaker 13: people into New York City at the airports... You would
• 16:46
  Speaker 13: reinvent and reinvigorate the voice of the longtime New York
• 16:51
  Speaker 13: Yankee PA announcer, Bob Shepard. He could certainly fit the bill,
• 16:56
  Speaker 13: and now with digital technology, we can bring him back
• 17:00
  Speaker 13: to life.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Derek Jeter. Or John Sterling. Right? I mean, John Sterling.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: That was the iconic book. These are good ideas.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: I love the idea of you. I just love that
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: thick New York accent.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: That would be great. Yeah, but more importantly, warning all
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the illegal aliens who are trying to sneak in. Report
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: to TSA because you're going right back on the next flight.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: One last one.
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: So let me get this straight.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Somebody in Jersey just made a ton load of money.
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: And Natalie hasn't been seen in how many days?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Today is number two, and we've added a caveat. Izzy,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: board operator for Marc Simone and so many other shows,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: happens to work at that Wegmans. And I believe he
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: probably bought the ticket with Natalie's money, and they agreed
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: to share it. This has been done before. You know,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: people buy tickets and then they agree to share. Better
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: make sure it's in writing, though.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Is Daria Albinger here today?
• 18:01
  Speaker 12: I am here.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Okay, so you didn't win.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I told you guys that yesterday. And you know what else?
• 18:06
  Speaker 14: Izzy told me.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Yesterday, if he wins, we all get a cut.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Did he say that to you? He didn't say that
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: to me.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: He said it to the newsroom.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Maybe not you, but the newsroom gets a cut. So
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: I get a cut.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Screw him, then. Oh, you're being nice to Natalie. Screw you.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Well, he offered it to everybody else. He didn't say
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: a thing to me. Now let's get the news at 630.
• 18:29
  Speaker 15: Morning, guys.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Rain today.
• 18:30
  Speaker 14: Do not forget the umbrella. You're going to need it.
• 18:33
  Speaker 14: We'll see a high of 68 degrees, which is about
• 18:35
  Speaker 14: where we are right now. Well, it's been a couple
• 18:38
  Speaker 14: of days since the midterm elections and that razor tight
• 18:41
  Speaker 14: Senate race in Alaska is still being counted. And we're
• 18:45
  Speaker 14: being told that we may not know until the end
• 18:47
  Speaker 14: of the month who won that one. Less than 640
• 18:49
  Speaker 14: votes separate the top two candidates. The state's ranked choice
• 18:52
  Speaker 14: voting is going to slow things down. They're still counting
• 18:55
  Speaker 14: the ballots in Mississippi's Senate race, too. President Trump is
• 18:58
  Speaker 14: heading to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida for an
• 19:01
  Speaker 14: aerospace and transportation tech summit. Today, this is his first
• 19:05
  Speaker 14: formal speaking engagement since the midterms. A Long Island teenager
• 19:09
  Speaker 14: is in the hospital. Another is in custody after a
• 19:12
  Speaker 14: stabbing in the parking lot. of a Suffolk County high school.
• 19:15
  Speaker 16: It happened at Satcham High School East in Farmingville in
• 19:18
  Speaker 16: the town of Brookhaven at around 2 p.m. Police say
• 19:21
  Speaker 16: the 16-year-old boy who was a student at the school
• 19:24
  Speaker 16: was taken to Stony Brook University Medical Center. And a
• 19:28
  Speaker 16: 15-year-old is in custody. No word yet if the 15-year-old
• 19:32
  Speaker 16: was a fellow student or on the events leading up
• 19:35
  Speaker 16: to the stabbing.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Lisa Salvati, WOR News.
• 19:38
  Speaker 14: A judge in the UK says actor Russell Brand now
• 19:41
  Speaker 14: faces significant prison time since he's been convicted of sexual
• 19:46
  Speaker 14: assault and rape.
• 19:47
  Speaker 17: He, I should say, has consistently denied this. He's often
• 19:51
  Speaker 17: said that he was addicted to sex. He was a
• 19:53
  Speaker 17: sex addict and he had a promiscuous lifestyle, fueled with
• 19:56
  Speaker 17: drugs and alcohol, that he regrets that time in his life.
• 19:59
  Speaker 17: But at no time, he said, did he ever force
• 20:02
  Speaker 17: himself on a woman? But of course, he has now
• 20:05
  Speaker 17: been found guilty and he does face A pretty lengthy
• 20:08
  Speaker 17: jail sentence.
• 20:09
  Speaker 14: ABC's James Longman. Some babies who were diagnosed with peanut
• 20:13
  Speaker 14: allergies may not actually be allergic. That's what an Australian
• 20:17
  Speaker 14: study found to be the case in more than a
• 20:19
  Speaker 14: third of infants who were tested. Well, we still don't
• 20:22
  Speaker 14: know who won that $ 847 million Powerball ticket this week,
• 20:26
  Speaker 14: Natalie and Izzy. That's what I say. They still haven't
• 20:29
  Speaker 14: showed up. But we can tell you that it was
• 20:32
  Speaker 14: sold at the Wegmans in Montville, New Jersey. The store
• 20:35
  Speaker 14: is also saying that the $ 30, 000 bonus check that it
• 20:39
  Speaker 14: is getting because it sold the ticket, it's going to
• 20:42
  Speaker 14: donate to charity. The Devils and the Rangers win, and
• 20:45
  Speaker 14: the Islanders lose. Next news, 7 o'clock, bulletins at once.
• 20:47
  Speaker 14: I'm Daria Albinger on 710-WOR.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, the shots were fired by Elise Stefanik. She was
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: attacking Blakeman and the GOP leadership in New York. And
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: then Blakeman, who was accused of being a low energy Blakeman.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Remember that from Jeb Bush? He started shooting back. And
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: we're going to have to break it down for you
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: because this is for the soul of the Republican Party
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: that we'll dive into up next. Oh, wow. A seismic shift.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Amongst the GOP in New York State, there are 62 counties.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: When you go up upstate New York, which is red,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: the iconic figure there is the congresswoman, Elise Stefanik, who
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: steps down from her seat on January 1st, who, as
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: you remember, was on her way to battling Kathy Hochul. Boy,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: that would have been one for the ages. And then
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: she got sidetracked. By the president who would not give
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: her his not his blessing. And he said, oh, I'm
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: friends with Bruce Blakeman. I'm friends with Elise Stefanik. And
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: she felt that the president had thrown her under the
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: bus because she had already raised 15 million. She had
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: already done everything she could to help the president, especially
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: remember the big, beautiful bill needed one vote. One vote.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: That's how close it was in the House. And she
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: was going to be the new Jean Kirkpatrick in the
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: United Nations. My God, there would have been cameras every
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: day just waiting for her to erupt. And she did
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: the right thing. She said, I'm going to help the
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: president's agenda. I'm going to return to Congress. This is
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: something I wanted to do. But hey, country first. And
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: she thought, let's face it, it's a quid pro quo.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: I give up United Nations ambassadorship for the U.S., I
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: want to run for governor. There's nobody who could do
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: better than me. And I think that everybody agreed to that. But, boy,
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: let me tell you something. This goes back to the
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: old statement that usually applies to relationships between men and women.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Learn this, quiet storm, Chris, if it ever gets serious
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: in your life. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: I've learned that. Larry, I'm sure you've learned that over
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: the years. And Chris, you're going to learn that real soon. Now,
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: mostly that applies to personal relationships. But in politics, it
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: becomes a professional personal relationship. And man, she's an angry woman.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: And I believe rightfully so. So what she did yesterday
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: in the aftermath of the implosion of the Republican ticket Remember,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman and the rest of his ticket members lost
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: by 20 percentage points to Hochul and her team. She
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: immediately said, let me tell you something. There needs to
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: be a generational change, meaning Ed Cox, who is the
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: GOP chairman, who I said I think is like 100
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: years old. He's only known for having achieved one thing,
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: marrying Richard Nixon's daughter. Other than that, he's a person
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: of no consequence. She said, I will help the GOP
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: get back on its feet. She recommended Mike Lawler. We'll
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: talk to Rob Astorino about that in the 7 o'clock
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: hour because that's part of my strategy, Larry, to try
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: to get the GOP back on track. And then she said,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: this is a political reckoning. The state GOP is broken,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: needs to be rebuilt from scratch. And by the way,
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman was low energy and ran the worst possible campaign. Now,
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: you can call a candidate many things, but she took
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: a page out of President Donald Trump's campaign, remember, back
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: in 2016, where Jeb Bush was favored to sweep it.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: And Trump tagged him with low energy jab. That was
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: classic low energy jab. And it turned out that Blakeman
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: was pretty low energy. He finally got back on track
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: after Labor Day. But I got to tell you, and
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: she was right about this, he lost his own county
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: to Kathy Hochul Nassau that He was an expected shoe-in.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: They thought by having him as the candidate, the White House,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: that they could flip the two Democratic congressional seats in
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: Nassau County, the Swazi seat and the seat of the
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: other Democrat. They trounced. And he lost Suffolk.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: You know when he showed some energy?
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: After this.
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: After Elise Stefanik said something. I wish he would have
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: shown that same energy... When he was campaigning, because his
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: response was, I thought, over the top. I mean, I
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: get it. He lost an election. You don't want to
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: hear from somebody in your own camp. But to give
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: Elise Stefanik a bit of an excuse in this whole thing,
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: she's now a commentator. She's not a politician anymore. She
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: was hired by CBS. So she's going to have to
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: say things like this. She's going to take some Republicans off,
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: and she's going to take Blakeman off. But you know
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: what she said?
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: It's true.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: It's absolutely true.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: But the one thing that Blakeman said, she had one
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: moment of glory in what was otherwise an unremarkable career.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Are you nuts? Tell that to the president of Harvard
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: who resigned after her examination of her, remember?
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Well, that's the one moment he's talking about, but she's
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: been tremendous.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Remember when she dressed down Cuomo and she said, you
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: will never be elected to political office again in that
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: congressional hearing? And boy, was she correct. She has had
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: many moments. She raised $ 100 million.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: For the GOP. She's an amazing prosecutor. Let me give
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: you some more of the Blakeman quotes. She's a selfish,
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: do-nothing politician. And that's absolutely untrue. And I think that
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Stefanik was gracious afterwards. After the incoming came from him,
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: She said, you know, I'm going to give this a
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: little bit of time. I know what it's like to lose.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: I know what it's like to lose, and it hurts. Well, Larry,
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not a conciliator. As you know, I'm going to
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: throw gasoline on the fire. She said, though, part of
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: what I said needs to be the reconstruction. Remember, I
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: said Rob Astorino, Mike Lawler, and Elise Stefanik. That's the
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: generational chance. We're going to throw that by Rob Astorino,
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: who's very close to Elise Stefanik. In the 7 o'clock hour. Yeah, no,
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: Rob Astorino's coming up. And yesterday you said he should
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: be running the Republican Party in New York.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: With Mike Lawler, with Elise Stefanik.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: But you said he should take the lead spot. Yeah,
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: because he speaks Spanish. Because Lawler still wants to run
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: for office. Stefanik still wants to run for office. I'm
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: not sure Rob does. I think Rob would be great
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: as heading up the Republican Party in the state. I'm
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: not sure he wants to give up. all the other jobs.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: This will be another notch in my belt on the
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: new Curtis Sliwa political marketplace for politics. No betting. Hey, look,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: I actually underpredicted the victories of the Democrats. People thought
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I was nuts. Remember, Larry?
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Nobody gives themselves more credit than you.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I said 240 in the House. It looks like it'll
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: be 254, maybe 260. I said 53 in the Senate.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: It may go up to 57. So you were off.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: I was off. But everybody, when I said it, said,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: you're nuts. Well, guess what? I'm not nuts. At least
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: not on that show.
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: Can we take that cut out? Guess what? I'm not nuts.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: And just play that a lot.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Heck, Seth was flexing. You know, there's a whole group
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: that wants him impeached in the house. And he came out, man.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: And he was flexing and said, come and get me
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: up next.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: So there's a lot of talk right now about impeachment
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: and not necessarily impeachment of the president. It seems like
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: the Democrats might be reluctant to go for that, especially
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: right now. So they're looking at cabinet members. And here
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: is the thing that should concern you. That, you know,
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: anything with impeachment is going to have to start in
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: the House. So it's going to be investigation into the
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: House of Representatives, and they're going to call Hegseth before them,
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: and that is all going to start. It's Pete Hegseth
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: they're focusing on right now. And the thing that should
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: concern you is that if it gets to the Senate,
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: and even in the House, there are some Republicans who
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: are wishy-washy on the deal. Some of them are— agreeing
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: that he should be impeached. There's others that are saying,
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: you know, if it gets to us, maybe, you know,
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: I have to hear. Nobody's saying, no, that's ridiculous. This
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: is Senator Bill Cassidy, the Republican, who you wouldn't think
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: would be out in front saying, let's impeach him. You'd
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: think that he'd be supporting the president, but Bill Cassidy
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: said on CNN last night when asked about a possible
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: impeachment what he would do if it got to the Senate.
• 30:11
  Speaker 18: Clearly, there are people who I respect who feel that
• 30:15
  Speaker 18: he's done a very poor job, and if he's the
• 30:17
  Speaker 18: one that gave the president the guidance that we could
• 30:19
  Speaker 18: be out of the Iranian war in five weeks, that
• 30:22
  Speaker 18: was an incredible misjudgment. But that's what will be presented
• 30:25
  Speaker 18: before the House, and then we'll consider it in the Senate.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: He's already at the Senate. He's already at the Senate
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: with that.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: You know what that sounded like? Remember Bush 43 needed
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: a full guy for Iraq. Rumsfeld, you're gone. Yeah.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: Well, that's what I think might happen. I think what
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: might happen is he's going to be kicked out before,
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: before they even get a chance to impeach him. I
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: think he's going to get a replace.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: The question that I have is we know about impeachment
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: of the president. We've lived with that with Donald Trump. Uh,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: How do you impeach a cabinet member? I mean, if
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: the president still wants him to serve and they take
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: a vote in the House and the Senate, can that
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: supersede the desire of the president to have him continue?
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Because Trump said yesterday, no, he's my guy.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Because because the House and Senate has oversight over
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: the executive branch, it still takes a super majority to convict.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: So the impeachment happens with a simple majority, just like
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: the president in the House of Representatives. But then you
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: need a super majority in the Senate. That's 67 votes.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Well, at this rate, you're going to have 57 Dems.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: It won't be difficult to get three, especially the outgoing
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: Republicans who got scorned by Trump. So that's obviously the Cassidy, Tillis,
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: and Cornyn.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you'd need 20. You'd need 20 Republicans to
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: come over and vote. And I don't think they're going to.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: I don't think you're going to get that. But he'll
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: still be stained. He'll still be impeached. You know, he'll
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: have the impeachment on him. I have a feel. Well,
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: let me just play with Hegseth has to say, because Hegseth,
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: one of the things they were talking about impeaching him
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: on is the fact that he was looking down on
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: women and blacks. And he was looking down on some
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: people that he went along and said, that we're setting
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: these standards that some people won't reach. And he doubled them.
• 32:28
  Speaker 19: DEI is a Marxist ideology built to destroy us.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: So we crushed it.
• 32:33
  Speaker 19: Diversity is not our strength.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Our unity is. Yeah, he's not, I mean, he's being Hegseth.
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: He's not backing down whatsoever.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: But of course, the other side, in case you've noticed,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: they're obsessed.
• 32:46
  Speaker 19: A disgruntled, defeated congressman, along with all his Democrat allies,
• 32:51
  Speaker 19: has also dropped sham articles of impeachment against yours truly,
• 32:56
  Speaker 19: just like they tried against President Trump twice.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's Tom Massey is who he's talking about, who's
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: leaving and is starting it all. He says it doesn't
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: matter what's going to happen. I'm not backing down.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: I understand. Just like the president.
• 33:11
  Speaker 19: We don't back down, and that especially applies now.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: Well, you know what? He's got to watch himself because
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: I got a feeling the president might back down on
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: this one.
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Remember, we do know that Hegseth was the one who
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: was all in to bombing the hell out of Iran.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: Rubio had reservations. Ratcliffe, the CIA director, said there won't
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: be an insurgency. And we know J.D. Vance said to
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: the president, you know, I'm opposed to this, but I'm
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: your vice president. I'll do what you ask me to do.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: it was Hegseth who was all about going in there
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: and bombing them back into the Stone Age.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: It's bigger than that because not only was he yes
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: all into that, he said and he had the president
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: convinced it would take five weeks. And so him saying
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: it would take five weeks was the biggest of the mistakes.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: If you were going to go in, and the timing
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: was awful on the whole thing as we found out
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: on Tuesday, But the timing was awful. If you're going
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: to go in, do it after the midterms.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: Don't do it now. So if this indeed was his fault, yeah,
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: he's going to be the fall guy. I think you're
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: going to hear Hegseth resign. Even with all that bravado,
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: I think that's what's going to happen.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: Wow. I'm going to hold you to that. It sounded
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: to me like, man, he's General Custer out there. He
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: ain't surrendering. But up next, it's the news at seven.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: Well, the list of people that potentially are going to
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: be running for president. And remember, at the end of
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: the midterm elections, that's the starting bill. That's the starting
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: gun going off for the race for president. And you've
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: seen a lot of people already flexing, including Ron DeSantis
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: that we played yesterday. There's no question. question at this
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: point that Ron DeSantis is running for president. I think
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: we knew that all along, but he's going to get
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: a head start on people in the Trump administration because
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: he's able to raise money now. But the list is long,
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: and Curtis yesterday had what seemed like a, not ridiculous,
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: but an over-the-top prediction of 20 for the Democrats, and
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: yet They just put up potential candidates on CNN or
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: on Fox, and there were 18 of them.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Well, that's because they didn't put up Don Lemon. Yeah,
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: that's right. That makes 19. And then take one other
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: spiritual healer, you know, sort of like low-budget Oprah Winfrey,
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: you know, and now you got 20.
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not sure either of them are going to
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: run because they need some money for that. And Don Lemon,
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: I know, is hurting for money, so he's probably not
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: going to run. And Oprah, her name's always thrown out there.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: But there always are people that run that you don't
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: see coming, like Ben Carson.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Yes. Or like Marianne Williamson. All of a sudden, there's
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: a couple of people. But there was that moment. Remember
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: Ben Carson, the doctor, the neurosurgeon from Johns Hopkins.
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Was ahead in the polls, was beating, remember, Donald Trump.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: And then Donald Trump went to work on him. He
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: didn't care. Black guy, I don't care. I got to
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: take him down. But Ben Carson, probably one of the
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: nicest guys you'd ever want to know. Quick side story.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: I got hit with a drone. I was doing a
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: commercial for Major World and a drone came down and
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: I had to, the cowboy from Times Square, and I
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: had the Omega guy. And, you know, the drone films,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: it comes right eyeball with you. And the drone attacked
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: me and cut me right near the jugular. And then
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: it went back and then it came at me again.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: I knocked out the drone. The guy who operated the
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: drone was crying. You killed my drone. So I went
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: and I ran into Dr. Carson and I was bleeding
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: profusely and I opened it up and he said, Come on, Curtis,
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: you've had worse. Don't worry about it. I said, hey,
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: you're the best doctor around, and I didn't even use
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: a butterfly on him.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it just bleeds a lot. When you get a
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: neck injury, it bleeds a lot. And for the Republicans,
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: just real quickly, for the Republicans, it looks like Curtis
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: might be right around the 10 mark because there's some
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: people jumping into the race, and it sounds like they're
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: going to run, like Chris Christie, who probably don't have
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: a shot. But it's a way of making some money
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: and getting some attention for yourself. So I think there's
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: three or four for the Republicans that are so far
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: out in front, except that, man, what about the shock
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: of Marco Rubio? Yesterday, there was stories that he was
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: from high sources and from good sources that he was
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: going to step down and he was going to start
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: his election. I was on the air with my wife, actually,
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: when that happened. She told me that. And I went smart.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: That's really smart because you separate yourself from the Trump administration.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: If anything goes wrong, he's not there. And then you
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: also get to start raising money before anybody else.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: So it's brilliant.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: And then, of course, right away, he turned around and said, no,
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: not doing it.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: I'm staying here. You know my policy. I don't trust
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: any politicians. They say one thing and do another. So
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: he said, as you said, I'm not leaving. I'm going
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: to fill out my term. I will not talk about
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: 2028 anymore. And back in May, he said, J.D. is
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: a very good friend of mine. If J.D. runs for president,
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: I think he would be a phenomenal candidate. I've said publicly,
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: and I'll say it again. Now, this was in May.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: This could change. I'll be the first person to sign
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: up and support him. But we've seen these things change
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: in every election cycle.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Although a J.D. Vance, Marco Rubio ticket is a very,
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: very strong ticket. Unless, unless, we have to see how
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: the next two years go. Because if the next two
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: years are bad, and there's no telling. Obama's had bad
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: first two years. Had a great last couple of years.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: It happened to Eisenhower. There's been so many people that
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: have had bad two first years and then great. Well.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Great third and fourth years. But if they're bad, it
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: would hurt that ticket immensely.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: Going based on your prognostication of how important Rubio would
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: be as the Latino candidate with the best chance to
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: be the first Latino. president, in Trump's campaign 2024, Trump
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: got 54% of the male Latino vote, 44% went to Harris.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: When they extrapolated the events across the country in the midterms,
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: The Democrats now have the Latino men 56% to 41%.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: So it's gone back to what it originally was. I
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: don't think J.D. Vance gets the Latinos back or any
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: of the others.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: Marco Rubio does. And Marco Rubio, even his vice president, does.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: He would be the highest elected, either way, the highest
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: elected Latino ever. And just that last name, I know
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: this from talking to consultants, that last name is going
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: to get Latino votes.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: I'll move out of the way, because even though J.D.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Vance issued his manifesto, which said we made a mistake
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: in Iran, inflation, and we have to redo our relationship
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: with Israel, that he put out on Truth Social, which
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: is the president's informational line, apparently with the OK of
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: President Donald Trump. He's not He just said, no, no, no,
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: it was important we go to war in Iran. But, oh,
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: my God, DeSantis, could you wait for the starting firing gun? Oh, no, no, no.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: He had a press conference first. Then he's been on
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: every TV channel and network you can imagine. He is
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: absolutely already running, and he's going to get a head
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: start in fundraising over everybody. as he flies out of
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: the starting gate, he was fascinating talking about Vivek Raswami.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: He is now full anti-Republicans in this midterm election because
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: he's been flexing, I won, they lost, they made mistakes,
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: I didn't, I'm the man to be president.
• 41:29
  Speaker 20: How bad did they beat Vivek like a drum? Now,
• 41:32
  Speaker 20: part of that was Vivek, quite frankly. I don't know
• 41:35
  Speaker 20: why they would have pushed him to be the candidate there.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: And then he went on to describe how he is
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: going to be the candidate of the blue collar working class.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: And Vivek, big tech, AI, AI data filing centers. My
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: mom's from Youngstown.
• 41:54
  Speaker 20: Ohio is a working class state. Very blue collar. You know, Vivek,
• 42:00
  Speaker 20: he's like a tech guy. He did this Alzheimer's and
• 42:04
  Speaker 20: he wants to bring in people, foreign worker on visas.
• 42:07
  Speaker 20: That is not the type of person that's going to sell.
• 42:09
  Speaker 20: And I know he shot himself in the foot. I
• 42:11
  Speaker 20: know he did a lot of other stuff to make
• 42:13
  Speaker 20: it a real landslide against him. But even with that,
• 42:16
  Speaker 20: it's like, you know, you've got to meet the voters
• 42:18
  Speaker 20: where they are in some of this stuff.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, poor Vivek. All of the potential
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: candidates are going after him. We forgot about Nikki Haley.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: And Nikki Haley now is everywhere as well. She's going
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: to run again. She went after Vivek.
• 42:33
  Speaker 21: I think he was getting desperate. I think he did
• 42:36
  Speaker 21: this ad, which was just immoral. But what he didn't
• 42:39
  Speaker 21: think about was what he did to the entire ticket
• 42:42
  Speaker 21: when he did that. I think Husted's going to suffer
• 42:45
  Speaker 21: because Ramaswamy was so narcissistic and selfish in doing this.
• 42:49
  Speaker 21: And I think it's a shame for the people of Ohio.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Poor Vivek Ramaswamy.
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: He's dead.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: He's done. Remember what the word has always been. If
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: you win Ohio, you win the presidency. And remember, originally,
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: Ohio was a purple state, and then it became entirely red.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: So the Republicans would always say, we win Ohio, we
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: win the presidency. And that stood true, except now that's
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: in flux, like Texas is in flux. But notice right away,
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: they hit the Achilles heel, Vivek, the face of the
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: billionaire class, of the AI class, of the techie class.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: I'm the blue collar guy, DeSantis. No, Haley goes, I'm
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: the blue collar gal. They're going to be fighting for that.
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: But no, it's already started. Oh, absolutely.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: And this is going to be every single day.
• 43:41
  Speaker 20: You know what?
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: They're not going for votes right now. They're going for funds.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: They're going for money.
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: And as you know, as you stated, DeSantis is foot
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: loose and fancy free on January 1st. He's no longer governor.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: Haley is no longer an elected official. She can start
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: fundraising right away. So it's all dialing for dollars. They're
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: going to be attached to their cell phones. Their ears
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: will be hermetically sealed as they call up their lists.
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: It's amazing.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: The Republican Party right now is being reset. And I
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: think that may end up hurting, although I think they're
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: the frontrunners right now, Both J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure Marco Rubio is going to run. And
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: they're going to... They both are going to read the room.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: I think J.D. Vance, no matter what the room is,
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: is going to run no matter what. Rubio, I think,
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: is going to read the room and then sit there
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: as a possible vice president for anybody that eventually wins.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: So it's interesting. It's going to be fascinating over this
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: next year what the Republican Party does. But Ron DeSantis...
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: has thrown his hat in the ring as the new
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: leader of the Republican Party. There's no question about that.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: And we forgot my favorite GOP favorite is Senator Johnson
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: of Louisiana. Man, that is the soundbite guy. Remember he said, yeah,
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: I'm seriously considering running for president of the United States.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you are correct, Kennedy. I am seriously considering. Man,
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: that is a soundbite machine. And as you know, if
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: it is a crowded field of 10... who perseveres the
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: guy with the sound bites aka donald trump when he
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: was running against remember what was it 13 14 16 and.
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: He had the sound bites although i'm not sure kennedy's
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: gonna run you know i told you the old political
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: adage if anybody asks you if you're running you always
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: say yes you know what because why why would you
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: say no of course you.
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: Would i want him to run I really do. That
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: will definitely spark up the campaign, no doubt about it.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: I'm just not sure he's going to. When we come back,
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: pizza and pineapple. Pizza and pineapple has always been controversial,
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: but in Australia, Curtis has that story coming up, plus
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: a chance to see Def Leppard and the Goo Goo
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: Dolls at 825.
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: You know, Larry, one of the best segments we've ever
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: done since our relationship was consummated back in March is
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: about pizza. And you actually acknowledge that, hey, you know,
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: sometimes you like a little pineapple on your pizza. You
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: are honest. And I eviscerated you. So now let's go
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: to the land down under Australia, who they like the
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Brits and the Irish. They have no good food. So
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: they bring over this top Italian chef to run La Costa,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: a high-end Italian restaurant. And he's a guy, he's in
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: the kitchen, he's working. And the Australians, they want pizza,
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: but they want pineapple on their pizza. So a lot
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: of the orders came back. We want pineapple on our pizza.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: The chef comes out to them like the soup Nazi.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: No pineapple for you. This is an insult to my culture.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: He actually comes out. He's shouting. He's yelling. What? Pineapple
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: on pizza? This is a disgrace. He gets fired and
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: then he goes before Australia's Fair Work Commission. And they
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: agreed with his employer. You're fired. Now, he hasn't left Australia.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: He just found an Italian restaurant that does not have
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: pizza with whatever you want to put on it. It's
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: like designated pizza, but they love pineapple on the pizza.
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: So if you ever decide to resettle, Larry. Australia is
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: the place for you.
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: Well, California does too. That's the only place I've really
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: had it is in California. California loves pineapple on their pizza.
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: And I try to just taste like pineapple.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: I like pineapple.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: The worst food. England, Ireland, Australia. They have a spread
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: called Vegemite. The craft created here in America. No Americans
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: would eat it. It's the worst. So they said, let's
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: give it to the prisoners colony. You know, they were
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: raised with gruel in Australia, which is true. That's what
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: they ate as prisoners. They love Vegemite. They put it
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: on everything. It's the only place in the world where
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: it's sold. And today I will be interviewed by Australian
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: TV about this.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, there you go.
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: As I come to the defense.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: Let me just ask you, did you want to talk
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: about Australian food to say that? Yes.
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: And to defend my kumbaricich, David Tambarella. Of Italia, where
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: they know what real pizza is.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: Let's get some talkbacks.
• 48:29
  Speaker 6: Come on, the only voice for New York would be
• 48:31
  Speaker 6: Archie Bunker.
• 48:32
  Speaker 10: Prove me wrong.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, Archie Bunker would be great to have right now.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: Now, hold on a second. Hold on. We have one.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: It's Constantino. If you don't know who he is, you're
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: going to know real quick. He replaced Elise Stefanik upstate.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: I warn you, Larry, I've never heard or seen a
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: worse candidate than this guy.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: Well, I saw him yesterday at his victory speech, and
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: he said this about Mom Donnie. Now, I want to
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: set this up. He is dressed like a pro wrestler almost,
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: and everybody around him are like the helping people of
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: pro wrestlers. And the crowd... is like a wrestling crowd.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: And this is what he said to Mom Donnie.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: I know who you are.
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: You know who I am. And like I said, the
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: last time there was a battle between North versus South,
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: the North won.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: I'm in the North, you're in the South. I know
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: who you are. You ain't messing with me. he threw
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: down the mic and be honest threw down the mic
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: most of what he said in that long press conference
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: we can't air it was all curses yes but how about.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: That i know where you are you know where i
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: am come find me.
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: He dropped the mic you know he has a rap
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: song maybe the worst ever other than mandami's rap song
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: and he is a u.s congressman.
• 49:51
  Speaker 10: Yes somebody is going to have to do a better
• 49:57
  Speaker 10: job at explaining what in the world an impeachment does
• 50:03
  Speaker 10: because it sounds like a lot of noise about nothing
• 50:08
  Speaker 10: if you get impeached nothing happens to you so what
• 50:13
  Speaker 10: is the big deal about being impeached it's so ridiculous
• 50:18
  Speaker 10: impeachment someone is impeached what does it.
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: Mean That's a really good point. And Curtis had a
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: tremendous point about why people feel that way.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, think about it. Clinton got impeached. Trump got impeached.
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: So even if he gets impeached, what's the big deal?
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: That doesn't mean you have to leave. What does it, Larry? No,
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: you don't have to leave. You don't have to leave
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: unless you're convicted in the Senate. You have 67 votes
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: in the Senate. And that rarely, rarely has happened in
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: our history. And so No, even if he was impeached,
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: he probably wouldn't have to leave. Donald Trump may not
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: want to go through weeks of an impeachment and a
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: possible conviction because it's going to make him look bad.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: It's going to make Hegseth look bad. So as I
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: said earlier, I.
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: Think that Ronald Reagan is just going to ask him,
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: you know, please resign from the grave. Oh, did I
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: say Ronald Reagan?
• 51:16
  Speaker 7: No, no.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: I can see Trump saying, you're my surrogate. Please tell
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: him he's got to go.
• 51:20
  Speaker 2: I get Trump and Reagan mixed up all the time.
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: Not a bad combination. Anyway. Oh, you know what time
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: it is right now. 7.30 time for the news with Daria. Morning, guys.
• 51:31
  Speaker 14: Rain today with a high of 68 degrees. So really
• 51:34
  Speaker 14: the temperature not moving much at all from where it
• 51:36
  Speaker 14: is right now. Just take that umbrella.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: You'll need it.
• 51:38
  Speaker 14: Police want to know why two people were found shot
• 51:41
  Speaker 14: to death in an apartment in East Harlem.
• 51:43
  Speaker 22: Officers responded to a 911 call reporting a previous assault
• 51:46
  Speaker 22: at a place by 2nd Avenue and 104th Street Thursday night.
• 51:50
  Speaker 22: Inside they found a 55-year-old woman and a 66-year-old man
• 51:53
  Speaker 22: dead with gunshot wounds to the head. There are reports
• 51:56
  Speaker 22: the woman appeared to be the man's home health aide.
• 51:59
  Speaker 22: Detectives believe it may be a double homicide. No gun
• 52:02
  Speaker 22: was found on scene. I'm Scott Pringle, WOR News.
• 52:05
  Speaker 14: City officials are calling for stricter regulations on e-bikes and scooters,
• 52:09
  Speaker 14: especially where they can be charged. And it comes after
• 52:12
  Speaker 14: yesterday's deadly fire in Brooklyn that left six people dead.
• 52:16
  Speaker 14: There were lithium-ion batteries found in the rubble. President Trump
• 52:20
  Speaker 14: is still trying to overturn his hush money conviction.
• 52:23
  Speaker 23: Five New York appellate justices listened to attorneys explain why
• 52:26
  Speaker 23: they should overturn the president's conviction of falsifying business records
• 52:30
  Speaker 23: to cover up hush money payments to Stormy Daniels to
• 52:33
  Speaker 23: sway the 2016 presidential election. The president's lawyers argue federal
• 52:38
  Speaker 23: election law preempts state law accusing the trial judge of
• 52:41
  Speaker 23: disregarding presidential immunity by allowing testimony from White House officials
• 52:46
  Speaker 23: and tweets to be used as evidence.
• 52:48
  Speaker 24: In a case that had nothing to do with official acts.
• 52:50
  Speaker 23: If the president loses his appeal, he can take it
• 52:52
  Speaker 23: to the state's highest court of appeals.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: Natalie Migliore, WOR News.
• 52:57
  Speaker 14: The government's October employment report is due out in about
• 53:00
  Speaker 14: an hour from now. Analysts are expecting it to show
• 53:02
  Speaker 14: a gain of about 59,000 jobs, which would be up
• 53:05
  Speaker 14: considerably from the 29,000 that were created in September. And
• 53:10
  Speaker 14: the rising cost of veterinary care is pushing more people
• 53:13
  Speaker 14: to buy pet insurance. The North American Pet Insurance Association,
• 53:17
  Speaker 14: and you know that a lot of people have it
• 53:19
  Speaker 14: if there is such an association, says more than 7
• 53:22
  Speaker 14: million pets were covered last year. That includes my dachshunds, Cooper, Max,
• 53:25
  Speaker 14: and Honey. And that is up 9% from the year before.
• 53:29
  Speaker 14: By the way, like everything else, this is getting more expensive, too.
• 53:32
  Speaker 14: Premiums are projected to rise 17% this year. Devils and
• 53:36
  Speaker 14: Rangers win.
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: Islanders lose.
• 53:38
  Speaker 14: Next news, 8 o'clock, bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger
• 53:42
  Speaker 14: on 710 WOR.
• 53:44
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: Right on time, Larry. Our colleague here, WOR, Rob Estorino,
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: who's been through some grueling political battles. But I want
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: to start out first, Rob, by saluting your colleague, Mike Lawler,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: not only for him being so gracious in defeat early
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: in the night, But then I had a chance to
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: explain it because I saw it on my own thread
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: with the malfunctioning of the machines early on Election Day.
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: The thread was out. You know, I saw the stop
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: the steal hats. He didn't want to start screaming fraud.
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: The election deniers were out. See, they're doing it again.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: It's 2020. And he said, I wasn't going to feed
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: the beast of the conspiratorial thinking. I knew where my
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: votes were and I knew where they weren't. And I
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: came out and I acknowledged defeat. And I was gracious
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: to my adversary. I thought he really did a service
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: to the whole nation, Rob. Yeah, look, you know what?
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: And I talked to Mike yesterday. We had a nice, good,
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: long conversation. I mean, we've been friends for a very
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: long time. And, you know, it's hard. I've been through
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: it and he's been through it now.
• 54:53
  Speaker 6: And it's $ 65 million now. was spent in that race
• 54:58
  Speaker 6: all in. $ 65 million for that congressional race.
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: And in the end, it honestly, I don't think it
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: would have mattered if they put a billion dollars into.
• 55:08
  Speaker 6: That congressional race. It was what it was on Tuesday.
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: And it was just, you know, when you watch those
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: like zombie movies, it opens up, it's like orange on
• 55:18
  Speaker 3: the screen.
• 55:19
  Speaker 6: And it's like, you know, tumbleweeds and torn out cities.
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: That's kind of what it looks like for Republicans on
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: Tuesday and Wednesday now. It just– it was an apocalypse almost.
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: Nothing could have changed the outcome or the direction Tuesday.
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: We didn't know that.
• 55:36
  Speaker 6: We knew it was going to be a tough environment.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 55:38
  Speaker 6: None of us knew it was going to.
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: Be so bad until the first return started coming in
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: in Florida.
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: On that note, Mike Lawley yesterday said Jesus Christ couldn't
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: have won that Republican seat, meaning his seat in the
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: 17th Congressional District.
• 55:56
  Speaker 6: He's right, but Satan won. Oh, I didn't say that.
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: Rob, I can't believe you've played into this whole thing.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: An apocalypse?
• 56:06
  Speaker 20: Seriously?
• 56:08
  Speaker 6: I heard you guys argue about this yesterday.
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God. Hold on a minute.
• 56:13
  Speaker 6: Am I talking to Robinson Crusoe?
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: Listen to me.
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: Listen to me. This has happened to Reagan. It has
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: happened to FDR. It's happened to Eisenhower. It's actually pretty common.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: This doesn't make the top ten.
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: No, but here's why I think it was very brutal
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: and it could have longer lasting because it wasn't just
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: that we lost particular areas. We lost in the heartland.
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: We lost in the Midwest. But more significantly, Texas committed
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: suicide on Tuesday night. Economically, that is the state everyone
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: was going to, which was part of the problem, maybe.
• 56:57
  Speaker 3: But what they decided to do, it wasn't just sending
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: Tallarico to the Senate. It was literally overturning the entire
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: table and breaking everything.
• 57:06
  Speaker 6: That was working.
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: So up and down, the Republicans are all out, including
• 57:11
  Speaker 3: in the state legislature. Texas now, if Texas holds, and
• 57:16
  Speaker 3: in two years, they got a redistrict. Now they control
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: all the redistricting. They control all the power statewide for
• 57:22
  Speaker 3: a presidential election. So if the Democrats take Texas and
• 57:25
  Speaker 3: the Electoral College vote, You tell me how the Republicans
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: are going to win nationally.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: No, I get it.
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: Believe me, I understand it. I understand it. I'm just
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: saying that everybody thinks.
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: This is historic.
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: Everybody thinks this is the biggest ever.
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: It's not.
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: It's nowhere close to the biggest ever. There had to
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: be resets many, many, many times. And what happens over
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: the next two years is going to determine that. Like
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: when Obama had two awful midterms.
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: In a row.
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: And by the way, you know, there are you can
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: ride a wave or you could you could be just
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: completely drowned by it. And I've had both when I
• 58:04
  Speaker 3: got elected county executive. I mean, look, we defy the odds. Why?
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: Because Obama got elected in 09.
• 58:11
  Speaker 6: I was I'm sorry, in 08. I was running the.
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: Following year and I you know, there was a big
• 58:16
  Speaker 3: issue that I was running on with the HUD settlement.
• 58:18
  Speaker 3: But it was also a backlash against Obama. So I
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: that's how I won in a two and a half
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: to one Democratic county. But then in 17, Trump got in.
• 58:28
  Speaker 6: In 16, I'm running for re-election.
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: We had good numbers, but like Mike, same thing, good numbers.
• 58:34
  Speaker 3: But you can't keep up with the volume of people coming.
• 58:37
  Speaker 6: Out to send a message, especially the Democrats.
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: And that's kind of what happened. But if you look
• 58:42
  Speaker 3: around the country, Republicans did not come out in many ways.
• 58:47
  Speaker 3: They didn't come out. Some Republicans flipped their vote to Democrats.
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: And independents went, you know, went big on to the left.
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: So and obviously Democrats were foaming at the mouth to
• 58:56
  Speaker 3: vote all week. And you just you cannot keep up
• 59:00
  Speaker 3: with that.
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: Again, it's happened before, though.
• 59:03
  Speaker 6: Well, yeah, it does.
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: Your friend, my friend, Mike Lawler's friend, Elise Stefanik, the congresswoman.
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: came out firing her Gatling guns. She said there needs
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: to be a generational change. Goodbye, Ed Cox. I will
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: help the GOP get back on its feet. That's great.
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: She recommended Mike Lawler to become the chairman of the
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: state GOP. He's well familiar, as you are, with all
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: 62 counties. The battle is on for what is left
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: of the GOP. And obviously she took shots at Blakeman.
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: And then Blakeman said, oh, man, let me tell you something.
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: She had one moment of glory in what was otherwise
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: an unremarkable career. Blakeman, shut the hell up.
• 59:51
  Speaker 3: Look, this is what happens when we get our ass kicked, right? Nationally,
• 59:56
  Speaker 3: we're going to go through this. here it's nothing's really
• 59:59
  Speaker 3: changed and that's been very frustrating it's hard i mean
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 3: you're in a blue state deep blue state it's hard
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: to win as it is and then when you have
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: divisions and we've had that in this state party and
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 3: and within uh even with the conservative party i mean
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 3: we you know at times we're battling with the conservative
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 3: party we can't win you know together let alone alone
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: so that's going to happen do i think ed cox
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 3: should stay as chairman anymore I love Ed. I've known
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 3: Ed a long time. I do think it's time for
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: a change. I do think we need somebody else in there.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: Whether it's Mike Lawler, I doubt he would do that.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 6: I don't know. I don't think he should do that,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 6: quite frankly.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: I think he should take a very deep breath, go
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: back into the real world, provide for your family, relax.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 6: He's young.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 3: He can come back at some point, and he should.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: But the party has to be fixed. nationally now we
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 3: need to and and here in new york.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 2: State rob i don't know if you were listening yesterday
• 1:01:00

• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: um curtis suggested that you be the new chair of

• 1:01:34

• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: Well, there's always Constantino, the last Mega Man standing. Rob,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: I've been warning our audience. This is the worst candidate
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: I've ever seen. He replaced Stefanik as Trump picked him
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: against the Republican Assemblyman. Ladies and gentlemen, you must go
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: on the thread and see. You think George Santos was bad?
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: This guy's 10 times worse.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 6: You know what?
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: Honestly, and the El Sayed stuff. Did you see El Sayed's, quote,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: victory speech? You know, I've always said thou shall not
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: gloat in victory nor.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 6: Sulk in defeat. I just think you have to have grace.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 6: He has none.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: El-Sayed screaming in Arabic and telling Mike Rogers to go
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 3: retire in his 10 homes, which doesn't exist. It's just
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: so frustrating. I mean, we're so far off on moorings
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: in this country. And two years from now, that's it.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 3: That is the threshold two years from now. They will
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 3: hold the Senate, the Democrats. They likely will hold the House.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 3: And if a Democrat president gets elected and they have
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: the trifecta, then they're going to do everything that they
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 3: say they would do. There'll be too much pressure not to.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: And this country will no longer be, I mean, it's
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: not hyperbole anymore to say it because they're telling us.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 6: What they want to do. So this country will, you're.
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: Going to make me stab myself. What are you talking about?
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: Is this Rob Astorino?
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: Well, you don't think they would add Washington DC and
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 3: Puerto Rico to, Of course they will.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 6: You don't think they'll stack the Supreme Court?
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: I do. I do.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: I do.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to happen. That's all. Listen,
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: can we rebuild and be a little bit more optimistic, Rob?
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 6: Not today. I'm so depressed.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: Come on, become chairman of the New York State GOP.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 2: Thanks a lot, Rob. Have a great weekend. Have a
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: great show over the weekend.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: Natalie Migliore.
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 2: Thank God we're going to get a break from politics.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: A mood elevator.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: The Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Natalie Migliore with her beat on the street next.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: Elevator Larry was talking Rob Astorino off to George Washington.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 24: I don't know.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: This is a great story. No matter who you are, Republican, Democrat, Independent,
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: you're going to love it, right?
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 23: Yeah, and you know the perfect thing is leading into
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 23: the segment was Christmas music, bits of Christmas music. So
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 23: with skeletons still out on some doorsteps, not in closets hopefully,
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 23: Christmas doesn't care because the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree is
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 23: set to roll into town tomorrow morning.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 24: Check your calendar. It's November 6th. So is it too
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 24: early to be stringing the Christmas lights?
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 12: We're not even at Thanksgiving yet. And I see Christmas
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 12: lights in my neighborhood. So, yes, I think it's too early.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 25: Look over at CVS over here. They were celebrating Halloween
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 25: in July. Way, way too early. What happened to Thanksgiving?
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 25: It's all Christmas things.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: So every year, they skip over Thanksgiving.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 3: Halloween comes and goes.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 16: It's like they go right to Christmas and no Thanksgiving.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: Oh, that was the line of the day. CBS was
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: celebrating Halloween in July. He's absolutely right.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 24: That actually is what inspired the story.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 23: I walk past the 57th Street CBS quite often, and
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 23: they have Santa Clauses and Mrs. Clauses of all races
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 23: that you could ever think of in the window.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 24: And I was like, we got to ask people what's
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 24: going on. It's not even Halloween yet.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 23: So those poor turkeys overlooked as the Rockettes are once
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 23: again kicking at Radio City Hall while the holiday market
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 23: at Bryant Park is.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 24: Already in full swing.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 23: When is it the right time to start playing Christmas music?
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 13: You know, after Halloween, that's a good amount of time
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 13: to get started.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: Doesn't need to be any shorter than that.
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 24: My birthday is November 15th.
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 6: So I think.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 24: Before my birthday.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 12: Doesn't Santa close the Thanksgiving Day Parade? So anytime after Thanksgiving.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 24: Is that okay with you?
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: That's right. After Thanksgiving is the appropriate time.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: Not at Light FM. Up to Cubby, he'd be playing
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: it 24 hours a day, every day of the week.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: Remember when we were doing the videos? Cubby, Christmas, Christmas, Christmas, Christmas.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 23: Yeah, but Light FM traditionally flips its switch to all
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 23: Christmas music right before Thanksgiving.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 24: You took that right out. It was like you were
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 24: reading what I had down.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 23: So when do people start getting sick of the Jingle
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 23: Bell Rock?
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: December 26th.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 12: Because by that time, you've heard it for two months now.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 12: Although I haven't heard my first Christmas song yet, but
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 12: I usually kind of mentally note that date, like, oh,
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 12: I guess Christmas music started. So I used to work
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 12: at Botanical Gardens, and their Christmas playlist is all day,
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 12: every day.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: It gets so poignant.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 12: I feel like even now when I hear Christmas music,
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 12: I'm like, all right, let's skip to the next song.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 24: Once December rolls around, I'm already over it.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 26: I feel like once the new year hits, everybody's ready
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 26: to just start fresh.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 24: So for me, by time January 1st, I don't need
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 24: to hear it no more.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 25: There's some great songs I like from the 80s. George Michael,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 25: Mariah Carey. But Jingle Bells and all those things from
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 25: the old days, I don't need to hear it anymore.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 25: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Unless it's Bruce Springsteen's version.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 24: A man who knows what he wants.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 2: You know, Mariah Carey, if she gets to the top
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 2: of the charts again, she could take on Ella Langley again.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: I'm back.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 24: You know that high-pitched thing as she defrosts?
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: Nobody attack the worst Christmas song of all times, Feliz Navidad.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: If I hear that one more time, I will impale
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: myself with this microphone.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: Feliz Navidad is the worst Christmas song of all time?
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 23: I would say keep them away from Light FM because
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 23: we never know when they might randomly be playing Feliz Navidad.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 23: And then we have Curtis on a stake, and we
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 23: don't want that before Christmas.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: He hates Silent Night, too.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 23: Well, I guess he's just a big hater. What is
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 23: your favorite Christmas song, Curtis?
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: Christmas is not big with me.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 6: Why?
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 24: We're going to go down the deep roots of why.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Let's move on.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 24: Do you have a favorite Christmas song?
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: You know what I love? I love the Springsteen song. Okay.
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: I just love that song.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: Give that a watch out.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: That one?
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 25: Yeah.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Do I sound like him? Yes, that was very good.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 23: Try it again.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 24: No, we'll save the listeners' ears.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: Larry, you know Republicans, conservatives, you're going to say, oh, Larry, oh,
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: you're really a Springsteen fan, even though he supported El-Sayed.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 2: No, I've said this on the air a million times.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 23: I love how we've managed to make a holiday story
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 23: about politics. You've just wrapped it all around.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 24: The Christmas tree, though, it arrives tomorrow.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 23: There is no live GPS tracker on the Christmas tree.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 23: It comes from upstate New York this year, about four
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 23: hours north of Rockefeller Center, and we're just steps away
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 23: from it. So we'll see when it arrives. Then it
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 23: gets under scaffolding for a couple weeks, and then the
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 23: lighting is December 2nd. So I'm sure everybody's looking forward
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 23: to that.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: Oh, thank you.
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 25: Oh!
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: Got him tonight! Oh, God. Natalie Niglio.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: Is going to be back tomorrow morning at 7.50. Two
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: states still haven't been decided. We'll talk about it after
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: the 8 o'clock news.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: Early on, Larry, you and I were remembering when we
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: played touch football and how you had to count out
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: Mississippis before you charged a quarterback. M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I. Nobody, nobody in
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: this stratosphere of politics thought that Mississippi was in contention.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: The sitting Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith was considered a shoo-in as
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: a Republican. And Scott Collum, people were saying, you have
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: a good career in the future, you were a good DA,
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: but you're just not resonating with the voters at all.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: As I had mentioned a month ago, A series of
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: black Democrats from Mississippi went to Chuck Schumer. Hey, the
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: guy's showing he's starting to really move up. Look, check
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 1: it out. Chuck Schumer said no chance. We're not spending
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 1: a nickel, dime or penny in Mississippi. And now with
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: the neck and neck vote, very slow count, I might add.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 1: It has come down, not to a recount, because Larry,
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: you pointed out early on in this process, Mississippi is
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: one of those states that has no provision for a recount,
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: no matter how close. It could be 10 votes. There's
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: no recount. So the lawyers for the Republican senator have
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: moved quickly and they have filed for an immediate separation
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: and custody for the presentation of all affidavit ballots. So
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: this is going to court. And remember, I've been warning
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: about the affidavit ballots. And let me just explain real quick.
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 1: Many people go to their local polling location, no matter
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: where it is, and they walk in. Oh, your name
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: is not on. you know, in our book. And they
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: get frustrated and angry and they storm out. And I say,
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 1: you request an affidavit ballot. You fill it out right there.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: And then they'll check to see if, in fact, you're
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: on the rolls. In Mississippi, you have to provide a
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: government ID. Whoa, Mississippi, you have to provide a photographed
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: government ID. Some people sometimes forget it. It happens. And
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 1: so you get to cure it. That means you get
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: to come back to your board of election headquarters and
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: show the photo ID that you said you had left
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 1: home or it wasn't available to you. You have a
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: limited amount of time to do that. That could be
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: about 4,000 votes of people who filled out this affidavit
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 1: ballot at their polling location. They could determine the winner
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: of this neck and neck race.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: I know. The reason I'm laughing, I'm not laughing at
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 2: anything you said. I just checked Alaska's results, the slowest
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: counting state in the whole world, and they had 75%
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 2: of the vote in yesterday, right? And they had 75%
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 2: of the vote in the day before. They have 74%
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: of the vote in today. How is that possible? They're
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: going the wrong way.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: Well, is it that some of the absentee ballots, mail-in
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: ballots are coming in the Iditarod race, you know, where
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: you have much, much, much, you know, you got the
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: dogs transferring it on the sled because a lot of
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: these places, there's no roads.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: But they're also proud of the way they count. There's
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: a guy named Eric Croft who is head of the
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 2: election counting. You know, there's a Republican and a Democrat
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 2: that's there as they count these votes. And this is
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: the way he described the voting in Alaska.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 27: We're still counting up here. We take a kind of
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 27: different approach. We treat this process more like sex. Finishing
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 27: first and early is not the main goal. We prefer
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 27: to take it slow, kind of do it right. And
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 27: hopefully at the end, everybody involved is satisfied.
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: Larry, please play that again. I don't think I've ever
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: heard a description of Of voting, of voting delay in
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: this way.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: This is quintessential Alaska.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 27: We're still counting up here. We take a kind of
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 27: different approach. We treat this process more like sex. Finishing
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 27: first and early is not the main goal. We prefer
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 27: to take it slow, kind of do it right. And
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 27: hopefully at the end, everybody involved is satisfied.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: Is satisfied.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 2: Everybody's happy at the end.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: Nobody's going to be happy with it by the way
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: in addition apparently cash patel has his fbi agents in
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: alaska hunting down the fake sullivan nobody can find the
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: guy now in that fishing village oh.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 2: Again near the illusion island yeah the newspapers had him
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 2: for a little bit and that's amazing that he escaped
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: again that is listen it is rank choice voting so
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: Who finishes third and where those votes go are going
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 2: to be a big deal. Right now, Mary Peltola is
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 2: still ahead. But again, it's just a few hundred votes.
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 2: And you know the controversy by now that there's someone else.
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 2: Dan S. Sullivan is the Republican nominee and the senator.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 2: And Daniel J. Sullivan is just some guy the Democrats
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 2: allegedly found to confuse voters with. And I said it's
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: a few hundred votes. Right now, Daniel L. Sullivan has
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 2: 3,600 votes. Now, you heard constantly, starting with The New
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: York Times, and then from many other people, that this
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: was a plot by the Democrats. They went out to
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 2: find this guy. They looked at 48 possible Daniel Sullivans,
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: and this fisherman from way up north is the one
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 2: that said, I'll do it. never campaigned. So it's obvious
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 2: that he was only on the ballot to try to
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 2: throw the votes to Mary Peltola. And that's why there's
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 2: going to be an investigation after this. That's why the
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: Republican Party is saying, put aside all of Daniel J. Sullivan,
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: the fake Daniel Sullivan's votes. But I want you to
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 2: listen to something. Fox News was up there, and I
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 2: don't know the reporter's name, but he did a really
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 2: good job. He found a reporter. He found a voter,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: I should say, that voted for Daniel J.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 1: Sullivan.
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 2: And on the ballot, because remember, it's ranked choice, put
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 2: Daniel J. Sullivan first. And I want you to listen carefully.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: There's going to be some dead air because he takes
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 2: a long time deciding whether he should answer a question.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: But listen to this answer and you tell me if
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 2: he didn't know already what was going on.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: So you did Daniel J. Sullivan first. As your first choice.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: Then you did Mary Patola as your second.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: Would you like to see Daniel J. Sullivan as your senator,
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: or was that more strategy with ranked choice?
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 2: I am confident that vote will go towards Patola at
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: the end of the day.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 1: Mostly strategy.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 2: Correct.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. So they knew. The Democratic voters already knew.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 1: I think we can agree the fix was in on this.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, out of all the states reporting their returns,
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: and there have been very few suggestions of fraud, the
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: fix was in when the old gray lady New York
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: Times spent all of its resources to track this down
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: and have pinned this to Chuck Schumer, who was in
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 1: charge of the finances for pumping up Democrats running. who
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: rejected the Mississippi black guy, wouldn't even give him a nickel,
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: and poured money into Peltola. But the other thing is,
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: it was obviously the Peltola campaign itself that was in
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: on this.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Peltola herself. The New York Times had some
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: text back and forth from her. She knew this too.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 2: Here's the problem, and Curtis has the addendum to this,
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 2: but the problem is, If there was no money exchanged
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 2: or no promises exchanged, which would really be strange, don't
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: you think? But if Daniel J. Sullivan just hated Daniel S.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: Sullivan and was willing to do this for free, no
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: laws would have been broken. Nobody can find a law
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: either in the state or federal that is a law
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 2: that was broken. Now, that doesn't stop the Justice Department
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 2: from being up there right now, because if they can
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: prove that this guy was promised something, then it's a felony.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 2: So it's going to be a fascinating, a fascinating election
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 2: results to look at. And it's not going to happen.
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 2: I guess they said they're expecting about 10 days for
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 2: them to have results up there.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 1: Obviously, they're having very long sexual encounters in counting the ballots.
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: I've never heard anything like that in my life. But anyway,
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: on the Mississippi side, and maybe this is a strategy
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: the Democrats will use. As you know, President Donald Trump
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: unexpectedly went in and did a rally for the sitting
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 1: Republican senator who was originally thought to be a shoo-in.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: Do you know that the Democrat, instead of showing up
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: the column, the African-American, instead of protesting, which they always
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: do at a Trump rally, He just walked the line.
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 1: He talked to everybody. He listened. The MAGA people took
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 1: pictures with him and then shared the pictures, said, hey,
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm not going to vote for him, but
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: he's not a bad guy. And they think that that
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: might have persuaded some Republicans, maybe not hardcore MAGA. but
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: seeing him and being referred to as a good listener. See,
• 1:18:53
  Speaker 1: this is what politicians don't do. They don't listen. No,
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: you're absolutely right. And Scott Column talks about this. Listen,
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: he got no money. He had nobody supporting him. The
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: Democratic Party wouldn't support him. And he said... I worked
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: every single day. I didn't count on TV ads. I
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: didn't count on radio ads.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 2: From morning until night, he was out. He was at
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: supermarkets as people walked in and out. He didn't care
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 2: if they were Republican or Democrat, and he talked to them.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: This is going to be, if Scott Cullum, and he's
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 2: a Democrat, so I hope he doesn't win, but if
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 2: he does win, people are going to look at this
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 2: race and say, this is how you win when you're underfunded.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 2: You don't just give up like most people do. You
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 2: work your butt off and you get out there and
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 2: you talk to as many voters as you possibly can.
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 2: And you take pictures with them and you make sure
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 2: they share it on social media. If he wins, if
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 2: he wins, it might be the new way of campaigning
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: because this is going to send shockwaves around the political
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 2: world that thought you could just buy these elections. So, again,
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 2: I hope he loses. But if he does, when we
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 2: come back, I know all of you have your favorite
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 2: toys from growing up. And there is a Hall of
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 2: Fame for this. We'll tell you the latest inductees coming up. Plus,
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 2: a chance to see Def Leppard and the Goo Goo
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 2: Dolls next. Do you know there was a Toy Hall
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: of Fame?
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: No.
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: It's in Rochester, New York. It's been around since 1998.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: Toys like in games like Monopoly are in it. Swing
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 2: sets are in it. Yo-yos are in it. Jacks are
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 2: in it. They used to play jacks. And they induct
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: new toys every year. So they just inducted some toys.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: Slinkies?
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: Slinkies are already in it.
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. So these are the new toys.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 2: Care Bears. That's a big deal. I know it's a
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: big deal among my kids, and it's now making a
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: big comeback on social media.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: I feel like they've been around forever, and I haven't
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: heard of them in a while.
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're actually making a comeback. Pokemon cards, which are
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 2: huge right now. And then some oldies. Bingo, which wasn't
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: in there.
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: Again, how is it not? Bingo's been around forever. How
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: is it not in yet?
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 2: Well, it's in now. Don't complain. And playground slides.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 1: Playground slides. No wonder why they call Rochester Rotchester now.
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, wow. Man, this guy doesn't like anything.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: No, none of those. These are toys.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 6: Come on.
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 1: Only one classic toy. That is the red wagon. I
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: had one, my favorite cat of all times, Ajax, who's
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 1: neurologically impaired, has a little red wagon. I'm telling you,
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: red wagons.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 2: Is that the only toy you had? Is that why
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: you're such a curmudgeon?
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: No, I had the red fire truck, too. Remember, red
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: was my favorite color, and still is. Did you have
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: a Red Ryder BB gun? No, I didn't have no guns.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 7: No?
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: Don't be talking about guns here.
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: Let's get to our talkbacks, and we start with Natalie's
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 2: New York accent.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: Is it just me? Since Curtis came out to WOR...
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: I swear, Natalie Migliore's New York accent has gotten so thick.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: Don't say that to her. She got offended. Do you
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: know what she started in radio at NPR? Where they
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: didn't permit that kind of New York accent, so she's morphed.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: But I think I've had that influence on her ever
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: since Tom Cuddy consummated our relationship in March. She is
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: sounding more and more New York. Everybody agrees. Especially when
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: she went to the San Gennaro Festival, did some videos
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: with me. People were saying, my God, you sound like
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 1: a Supreme Couchinette.
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 7: Well, that was an interesting discussion you had with Rob Astorino.
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 7: But I would say that Lawler lost for the same
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 7: reason Rob Astorino lost. And that is because of his
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 7: association with Donald Trump in Westchester. Don't fly here no more, guys.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 7: And whoever's going to be running on the Republican ticket
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 7: in two years from now has got to divest themselves
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 7: of a MAGA association.
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 2: A lot of things there.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 16: You're right.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: A lot of candidates lost because of their association with
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 2: Donald Trump. There's no question about that. We don't know
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 2: what it's going to be like in two years. Remember,
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 2: an association with Barack Obama made him lose 63 seats
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 2: in the House. Two years later, anybody that was associated
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 2: with Golden. So just slow your roll.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 26: Good morning. I want to talk about Texas turning blue.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 26: And I think part of the blame should be on
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 26: George W. Bush, who came out with his support of Tallarico.
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 26: He is the past president of the United States and
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 26: to put country first. And rather than see Trump win,
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 26: He'd rather see our country fail. What message is he
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 26: sending to his fellow Americans? The future is for his
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 26: grandchildren as well as mine. I'm so disappointed.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: But no matter. Paxton was a corrupt candidate. He was
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: a weak candidate. And he brought down Abbott. Abbott was
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: a strong governor. He built Texas. encouraged all the investment,
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: and encouraged a lot of people to come there from
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: California and New York, which may have diluted that red
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: and turned it purple.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't blame just George W.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: Bush.
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 2: This happened across the country.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 16: Curtis, I can't even believe it.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 14: As an Italian-American Catholic, and Christmas isn't big for you?
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 3: What?
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 26: That is such a disgrace, as you say, disgraziat.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 1: Nah, Christmas, never big. Sorry. You know. It didn't float
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: my boat.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 2: The birth of Christ?
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: Well, you look at it from the religious connotation. I
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: look at it from toys under the Christmas tree, which
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: was very German, I might. I want to remind you.
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 1: It was your peeps that created this.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, St.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 2: Christopher.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 5: The purpose of an impeachment is not to get a conviction.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 5: It's to drag somebody through adverse publicity, tie them up
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 5: in all kinds of legal proceedings, force them to pay
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 5: hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars of legal fees
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 5: and ruin them financially. The process is the punishment, not
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 5: the conviction.
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 2: They don't pay when they're in office. You're paying for that.
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 2: You are paying for that. Now the news at 8.30

  Speaker 2: to talk about the movies coming out this weekend, but
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 2: I just want to talk about a movie. It's a
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 2: documentary that you would have already talked about before I know,
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: but I didn't know it would be this big. number
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 2: one at the box office again you can see everything
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 2: now i know there's been bigger documentaries it's made 64
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 2: million so far and there's been bigger ones michael jackson
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 2: just recently But the fact that it's made $ 64 million
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: and it calls itself an American experimental meta-documentary, I don't
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 2: even know what that means. Is it really that good?
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 15: Uh i don't think so but i think it's interesting
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 15: i think it is it has become something and this
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 15: is like the young people kind of go into obsession
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 15: and back rooms and things like that people especially like
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 15: gen z and a little older are really going to
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 15: this film and i think they don't even they don't
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 15: need or know anything about what it's about so briefly
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 15: it's about remember elizabeth holmes she was the woman who
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 15: made up the thing about the the blood test thing
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 15: called uh thanatos or something which Sounds like an Avengers villain.
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 1: Like, sounds like Thanos. So, but it was a made
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 1: up thing. So this guy, Nathan.
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 15: Fielder, who's, who's sort of a, like a, a guy
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 15: who does like, I've never seen his stuff on TV,
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 15: but people like him. He's sort of like vaguely a
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 15: documentarian comedian guy. Moved into her house with her and
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 15: her boyfriend for like the month before she went to prison.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 15: And it has become this sort of phenomenon. It's three
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 15: hours long. At the screening that I saw, I saw
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 15: it at a regular screening with people. People applauded at
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 15: the end. They were really kind of laughing with it.
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 15: It's sort of a documentary of discomfort. and she's really
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 15: strange in the movie, and then it takes a turn.
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 15: I don't want to ruin it for anybody, but it
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 15: takes an interesting turn when the actress Amanda Seyfried shows up,
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 15: who had played Elizabeth Holmes in a Hulu thing. So
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 15: it's really kind of shocking to me. It kind of
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 15: makes me feel good about audiences that they're going to
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 15: see something really interesting like this, but I really don't
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 15: know why this has caught on. I think it's about
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 15: wanting to sort of see somebody like a bug under
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 15: the glass, kind of be a little bit sort of
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 15: uncomfortable in these strange situations. It is funny at points,
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 15: but it is a very interesting and strange film. To
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 15: even call it a documentary is a little bit off.
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 15: It is a documentary, but it's not like any documentary
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 15: you've ever seen before. It's a very interesting thing that
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 15: it's become... It's going to win Oscars. Maybe even for
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 15: Amanda Seyfried, which is very strange indeed to win an
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 15: Oscar for playing somebody in a documentary.
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 1: It's a very strange thing.
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 15: But A strange phenomenon that I think is just sort
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 15: of interesting about people wanting to go back to the
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 15: movies this year, right? People are going back for even this.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: Oh, so you didn't like it yourself, huh, Joe? I
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 1: thought it was okay. I thought it was okay.
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 15: Look, it's no Spider-Man brand new day.
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 2: Let's put it that way.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 25: All right.
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 1: Well, let's go to your choices because it's an opportunity
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 1: to go out and see these this weekend. Wild Horses 9. Yeah,
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 1: just one.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 15: Just Wild Horse. Wild Horse 9. Guys, I told you
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 15: last week, you're going to think Neumeier's had too much coffee.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 15: There are two five-star movies opening this week after last
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 15: week's five-star movie. First one is called Wild Horse 9,
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 15: and it's with John Malkovich and Sam Rockwell, and they
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 15: play CIA guys in 1973, and Malkovich's character is sick,
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 15: so he kind of wants to have sort of one
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 15: last sort of hang out and and uh and and
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 15: kind of get his stuff together before before the end
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 15: and that's not ruining anything that's sort of you know
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 15: revealed and it's it's the two of them are hanging
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 15: out on easter island which the those big giant statues
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 15: but it's a it's an action movie and it's thoughtful
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 15: and it's funny and it's made by the filmmaker who
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 15: did in bruges and uh seven psychopaths And, uh, he
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 15: did last he did was, uh, the banshees of any Sharon.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 15: It's a really fun movie and Malkovich could win an
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 15: Oscar for this for best actor. He's been nominated twice before, uh,
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 15: most recently for in the line of fire back in
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 15: the nineties.
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: So it's a.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 15: Really fun movie and it's, and it's a great hangout movie.
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 15: The second one is I play Rocky. Have you guys
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 15: heard about this?
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 2: No, I play Rocky.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 1: No.
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 2: Oh my God.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 1: It's great.
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 15: It's a movie about the making of Rocky in the
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 15: early 70s. It's about Stallone, who was not on board
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 15: really as anything. He's not an executive producer, but this
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 15: kid named Anthony Ippolito, who oddly enough played the young
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 15: Al Pacino in a TV thing about the making of
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 15: The Godfather, is fantastic. He plays the young Stallone who's
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 15: working hard as an actor. He's doing a porn thing
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 15: at once. He's living on the street, and he decides
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 15: to write a movie called Rocky. And he gets it
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 15: into the hands of some Hollywood producers. And it's about
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 15: how they will make the movie, but not with him.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 15: And he is insisting that he plays Rocky. And he
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 15: knows it's his shot. It echoes the actual story of Rocky,
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 15: of that great Oscar-winning movie of 1976. And it's really terrific.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 15: Matt Dillon plays his dad. It's a movie about the
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 15: making of movies, but it's so entertaining and it's terrific.
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 15: And it does echo the... You see him, like, filming this,
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 15: running up the steps in Philadelphia. You see all the
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 15: problems they had trying to get this thing going. They
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 15: said if you go one day over budget or one
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 15: day over schedule or a dollar over budget, we're replacing
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 15: you with Ryan O'Neill or somebody else.
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: And Stallone, like... It's fantastic. It's so good. It's so funny.
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 15: And so Stallone was like, who was like, you know,
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 15: eating scraps. He was really, you know, he was a
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 15: nothing to actor. And now of course, look who he is.
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 15: He's a, he's a superstar, but this is about that
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 15: moment in time.
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: Five stars.
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 2: I'm all in. I'm all in. I did it. I,
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 2: the first documentary I ever did was a short documentary
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 2: on the making of Rocky when I was at access Hollywood.
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah. So all these stories you just told, I know,
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 2: but man, I, I am completely all in. How about
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 2: James Bond? Is there going to be another James Bond
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 2: movie and who's going to play him?
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 15: There is, and it looks like, I mean, it has
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 15: not been confirmed yet. It looks like it's going to
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 15: be this actor named Callum Turner who's got, like, huge ears,
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 15: and he's 36 years old. Maybe he'll be fine. He's
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 15: never impressed me in any of the things he did.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 15: He did a movie called One Night Only earlier this year.
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 15: You know, it has not been officially announced. My problem
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 15: with all these guys that they've been kind of floating
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 15: is that they don't feel like Sean Connery or even
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 15: George Lazenby. Like, they don't feel like guys who can
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 15: wear a tuxedo. They feel like kids. And I think
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 15: that's maybe something about the acting class of, you know, 2026.
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 15: I just think that this guy, Callum Turner, is probably
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 15: just the least of their offers. I think the other
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 15: guys were a little bit better. Jack Loudon was one
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 15: of them, the guy from Slow Horses. But if you're going, who,
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 15: Callum Turner, who? I mean, that's probably to their advantage,
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 15: but I don't think he's a good choice.
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, so large ears, huh? Large ears, you know what
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 1: that means. Large ears, huh?
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: Come on, Joe.
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 2: Tell me.
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know, Curtis. I don't know. I don't know.
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 15: Large, large.
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 1: Large ears. Money pennies? Large money pennies?
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 3: No.
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I died. No, below the navel, pal.
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 1: Joe Neumeier. Just thinking that.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 2: Like Milton Berle?
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 1: Exactly. Hey, remember, Milton was the most famous drag queen
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: of all.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 2: True, speaking of drag queens.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 1: Anyway, Joe Neumeier, I appreciate that. So five-star movies, we're
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: going to hold him to the test as to whether
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 1: they actually prove at the box office to have earned
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 1: that status.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, the Oscar movies never do.
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 15: But fingers crossed on I Play Rocky, guys.
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 1: Go and see it.
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 15: Honestly, it's the best thing you can do for yourself
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 15: this week is I Play Rocky.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 7: 100%.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 1: Five stars. I'd give it 10 if I could. It's fantastic.
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 2: I'm in.
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 3: I'm in.
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 2: I'm going to see it this weekend. I'll talk to
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 2: you about it next week. Thanks a lot, Joe.
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 1: Sounds great, guys. The fallout, Larry, from the midterms is
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 1: taking its toll on both the Republican side and the
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 1: Democratic side. Let me hit the Democratic side first. Chuck
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 1: Schumer thinks he bought himself a past remaining majority leader.
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 1: He wants that desperately. Because if he had to run
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 1: for reelection, he's the most worst rated Democrat in New York.
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 1: Him and Trump's ratings in New York are equal. That's
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 1: how bad he is. Any liberal progressive DSA candidate could
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: beat him in a primary. But he's thinking, if I
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: can remain majority leader. Then all of a sudden, maybe
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 1: people will think differently of me. But the new incoming
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 1: senators who have been voted in have almost all said, uh-uh,
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 1: you're out. You're out. It's time. It's a generational change.
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 1: Someone else has got to come in and you got
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 1: to leave. So he's going to be lobbying all weekend
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 1: long saying, hey, you owe me. You owe me. Yeah,
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 1: that's exactly what he's going to say.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I've talked to some people that I trust on politics.
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 2: They think he's going to survive and they think he's
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 2: going to survive because exactly what you just said. We
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 2: did this for your campaign. We did this for your campaign.
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 2: We did this for your campaign. It's going to be interesting.
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 2: The Republicans have a bigger problem. I mean, you know,
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 2: they Mike Johnson has stepped aside. I don't I'm not
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 2: sure Thune's going to survive as the minority leader because
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 2: he was completely ineffective. Johnson's going to step aside, which
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 2: I think is wonderful. Thune might be through a fight,
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 2: but Johnson said he's going to step aside. I think
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 2: it's going to be Jim Jordan that's going to take
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 2: over as Speaker, mainly because he will be a great
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 2: spokesperson for the Republican Party, because that job is going
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 2: to be getting on TV and doing press conferences and
• 1:38:10
  Speaker 2: ripping the Democratic Party and what they're trying to do.
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 2: The bigger problem the Republicans have, it's not a national problem.
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 2: The bigger problem the Republicans have is in state by
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 2: state by state by state. And they have to– because
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 2: they have some they have some great people they're going
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 2: to be running for president they don't have a problem
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 2: with that but in the state after state they have
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 2: to completely re-evaluate and rebuild and they have to go
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 2: a lot younger than they have before And that has
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 2: been their problem, the fresh blood. So if they decide
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 2: we got to find some comers, we got to get
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 2: a few people that can take on who won in
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 2: this election, then I think they do have a chance
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 2: because I think people are looking for something fresh and new.
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 1: Instead of that midterm convention that proved not to be
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 1: helpful that Trump had in Texas, what they need is
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 1: a GOP boot camp. for future candidates, where they start
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: educating them from the ground up. These were the mistakes.
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 1: This is what we have to do. We're here to
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 1: help you. But your social networking has to get a
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 1: lot better. Your ability to be out there and meet
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 1: and greet people has to get a lot better. No
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: matter how much grief you get, and you are going
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 1: to get some grief, you have to be able to
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 1: do a pirouette and listen, listen. because then they'll respect you.
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 1: Even if they don't vote for you, they'll say, well,
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: he's not a bad Republican. And that's really what you
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 1: have to get to get the independence, the independence.
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 2: That's all going to start. I don't think it started already,
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 2: but I think after January 1st, what you're going to
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 2: see is Republicans recruiting people across the country, state senators,
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 2: state assemblymen, younger people, congressmen, that they believe are ready.
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 1: For the next step.
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 2: And trust me, they're going to be working with them
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 2: 24-7 they're going to be working with them because they
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 2: see that as their future. They know the mistakes they made,
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 2: and they're going to try to fix them.
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 1: I concur, except I noticed some of the Republicans are
• 1:40:14
  Speaker 1: no longer referring to DJT. They're calling him POTUS. They're
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 1: criticizing him, but they won't yet get to the point.
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 2: It's Trump's fault. It's POTUS's fault. Don't bury him yet.
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, we've seen many, many.
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 2: Presidents in the past make a comeback after a beating
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 2: like this. Barack Obama is the number one example of this.
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 2: He took two midterm beatings and came back and look
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 2: at what people think about him now. I mean, so
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 2: I think Donald Trump has the political prowess to try
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 2: to beat this. We've already seen it. We've already seen
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 2: him reaching across his hand across the aisle. So Anyway,
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 2: the talkback of the morning and winner of the Curtis
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 2: Lewin Larry Mendte in the morning t-shirt has his choice
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 2: for the voice to welcome people into New York City airports.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 13: Now, if you wanted to have an iconic voice welcoming
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 13: people into New York City at the airports, you would
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 13: reinvent and reinvigorate the voice of the longtime president. New
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 13: York Yankee PA announcer Bob Shepard, he could certainly fit
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 13: the bill. And now with digital technology, we can bring
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 13: him back to life.
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 2: I'll still go with Curtis Lewa. And the winner of
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 2: the Talkback of the Week who wins a C-Crane radio
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 2: is looking to move on quickly from the blue wave
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 2: in the midterms.
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know, guys. I'm sick and tired of hearing
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 1: about the blue wave. All I'm thinking about is that
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: McRib sandwich.
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 2: I may just fly to the Netherlands because it's on
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 2: the regular menu.
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 1: You don't have to wait for it to come around. Anyway,
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 1: let me remind you that coming up on Mark Simone
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 1: at 9, political strategist Ed Rollins. He's seen elections come
• 1:42:05
  Speaker 1: and go. And pollster John McLaughlin. I wonder if he's
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 1: going to admit that all of his polls were wrong.
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 1: I doubt it, because they never do. Listen for the
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 1: keyword after the 9 a.m. news, then head to 710WOR. com
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 1: for your chance at a thousand bucks.
