- 0:20Speaker 2: Regarding the Police Athletic League, we know that this very
- 0:24Speaker 2: vital organization works closely the police with students. I'm wondering
- 0:30Speaker 2: do they follow up and do they ultimately invoke some
- 0:35Speaker 2: of these students to get into law enforcement. Oh?
- 0:38Speaker 1: Yeah, Actually, I'm on the board of the Police Officer
- 0:40Speaker 1: Many many, many kids come out of there and you know,
- 0:44Speaker 1: they work and get to know the police, and many
- 0:47Speaker 1: of them have joined the police department, many of them.
- 0:49Speaker 1: In fact, you got a lot of famous people that
- 0:52Speaker 1: were PAL kids that the PAL took care of them
- 0:55Speaker 1: when they were kids. You had a lot of chairmen's
- 0:58Speaker 1: of big companies. Danza, who's on the board for years,
- 1:02Speaker 1: was a PAL kid. Plenty of cases of that. It's
- 1:06Speaker 1: a good organization.
- 1:06Speaker 2: Donald Trump on the board as well, Mark.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Uh for twenty five years. Donald Trump was on the board.
- 1:11Speaker 1: In fact, for many of those years we had the
- 1:14Speaker 1: board meetings in his office in his conference room. Yeah,
- 1:17Speaker 1: he was on the board for years. Still checks in
- 1:19Speaker 1: with the board every now and then. But thanks for Colin.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Let's go to John and Queen's John, how you doing
- 1:26Speaker 1: all right?
- 1:27Speaker 3: Good?
- 1:27Speaker 4: I wanted to tell you I owned that Mark Ruby
- 1:30Speaker 4: all my run for president?
- 1:32Speaker 5: Is that true?
- 1:34Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 1:34Speaker 1: Well you just found out about this.
- 1:37Speaker 5: Yeah, I owned it on another radio state.
- 1:39Speaker 1: No kidding. Why you are just getting up to date?
- 1:41Speaker 1: Marco Rubio, JJ Vance, Scott Besstt all right, hey, you
- 1:47Speaker 1: know Lindbergh landed. I don't know if you heard yet. Nothing,
- 1:51Speaker 1: don't worry about it anyway. Thanks for Colin. Let's go
- 1:54Speaker 1: to uh, let's go to Joe and Patterson. Joe, how
- 1:58Speaker 1: you doing. Oh wait a minute, let me push the button.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Go ahead, go ahead, Joe, Mark, Yeah, hi, Yeah, you're
- 2:07Speaker 1: talking about Campbell before.
- 2:08Speaker 3: I think nineteen seventy one is when they stopped TV advertise.
- 2:12Speaker 1: I think somebody chasing you. Sound like you're really in
- 2:14Speaker 1: a hurry. I kind of breath like somebody's chasing you.
- 2:16Speaker 1: Calm down, slow down, Oh no, no, no oh.
- 2:18Speaker 3: But what really hurt was when when he ended up
- 2:20Speaker 3: magazine advertising. I think Joe Campbell has something to do
- 2:23Speaker 3: with that because they brought every inside back cover every
- 2:26Speaker 3: magazine that was okay.
- 2:29Speaker 1: So say it again. Nineteen seventy one is when they
- 2:31Speaker 1: stopped cigarette.
- 2:31Speaker 3: Ads see TV ads. And then later as a result
- 2:35Speaker 3: Joe camib Will being so popular, they ended magazine advertising.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that's interesting. Thanks. Yeah, all of a sudden
- 2:43Speaker 1: you decided that would ban cigarette advertising. It was a huge,
- 2:47Speaker 1: huge blow to uh TV and radio, to broadcast that
- 2:51Speaker 1: was like the number one advertiser. And if you watch
- 2:53Speaker 1: mad Men, there's a bunch of episodes about this where
- 2:57Speaker 1: it was a huge blow the ad agencies because without
- 2:59Speaker 1: the TV and radio buys, they couldn't make as much
- 3:02Speaker 1: money off these accounts. In nineteen seventy one, that's interesting,
- 3:05Speaker 1: and then later magazine ads abandoned. Yeah, you're not allowed
- 3:08Speaker 1: to cigarette. You can't advertise those on the radio. Liquor
- 3:12Speaker 1: hard liquor can't advertise it on the radio. And I
- 3:14Speaker 1: don't know why you should be able to. Let's go
- 3:18Speaker 1: to Mario in New Jersey. Mario, how you doing.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Oh, good morning, Mark, thanks to taking my call. Regarding
- 3:26Speaker 2: those those folks that refer to Trump as bone spurs. Yeah,
- 3:33Speaker 2: I grew up in the late sixties, early seventies, and
- 3:36Speaker 2: I was a draft age. What a lot of people
- 3:38Speaker 2: don't know back then is if you went to college,
- 3:41Speaker 2: you will automatically differ from the draft. Yeah, and I
- 3:45Speaker 2: never heard anybody saying that those college guys were won't
- 3:49Speaker 2: draft are just so.
- 3:50Speaker 1: No, Trump was not a draft dodger. Legitimately got out
- 3:54Speaker 1: of the draft. Now you had a powerful father, could
- 3:55Speaker 1: have pulled a few strings. Maybe didn't really have those
- 3:58Speaker 1: bone spurs. I mean, that happens. But he had all
- 4:01Speaker 1: the student deferments, and again it was, it was normal.
- 4:04Speaker 1: Joe Biden, for instance, I got five student deferments. And
- 4:07Speaker 1: then then he I forget what he claimed he had
- 4:11Speaker 1: like two medical deferments for asthma, for things nobody ever
- 4:13Speaker 1: saw any other time. And if you if you read
- 4:17Speaker 1: his autobiography, there's no mention of any of this. It's
- 4:19Speaker 1: like that stutter he claimed he had. Nobody guy's been
- 4:22Speaker 1: speaking in public for fifty years. Nobody ever heard him
- 4:25Speaker 1: stutter once. A lot of these guys, Dick Cheney had
- 4:28Speaker 1: all those student deferments, and it was I mean, it was,
- 4:32Speaker 1: it happened all the time back then. Let's go to
- 4:35Speaker 1: Vincent and Brooklyn, Vincent, how you doing.
- 4:37Speaker 4: Good morning? Mock mock. The lowest grade boat license that
- 4:43Speaker 4: you could get that you're allowed to take full high
- 4:46Speaker 4: clients out a coast guard license. It's called the six
- 4:50Speaker 4: back right rich. That means you could take up to
- 4:54Speaker 4: six people on your boat. The boat that that this
- 4:57Speaker 4: year illegal alley and had this twenty two foot with
- 5:00Speaker 4: one boat, I wouldn't put including the pilot, I wouldn't
- 5:04Speaker 4: put more than four people on it. I used to
- 5:08Speaker 4: go out with a guy, a businessman, an executive, who
- 5:12Speaker 4: lived in Jersey City, and we would go out and
- 5:16Speaker 4: go fishing right out, and he had.
- 5:20Speaker 1: No vincent, be honest, were you taking things out of
- 5:23Speaker 1: the water or putting things.
- 5:24Speaker 4: Into in the water in the water, that's all right?
- 5:27Speaker 1: And uh what was Tony Soprano's boat?
- 5:33Speaker 4: I don't remember, But anyway, compared to this guy's twenty
- 5:37Speaker 4: two foot boat, this friend of mine had a twenty
- 5:41Speaker 4: eight foot boat. I'm not going to mention the name
- 5:44Speaker 4: of very popular brand too, Dual two hundred and fifty
- 5:48Speaker 4: horse power engines. And the width of the boat means
- 5:52Speaker 4: a lot to beam. The beam of his boat, the
- 5:55Speaker 4: width was eleven foot. Wife the White of the boat,
- 5:58Speaker 4: the more stable it is. And he when he wasn't
- 6:03Speaker 4: taking people out fishing, he would toodle around Manhattan. He
- 6:07Speaker 4: would take Japanese tourists because they would pay through the
- 6:11Speaker 4: nose to go to get a bird's eye view of Manhattan.
- 6:15Speaker 4: But he went to actually a school to get that license.
- 6:20Speaker 4: I remember at the time, thirty years ago. He paid
- 6:23Speaker 4: about one thousand dollars just to go to school and
- 6:26Speaker 4: attend classes. And you have to take an official close
- 6:29Speaker 4: guard test.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Yeah, well that makes sense.
- 6:31Speaker 5: And so compared to this guy who should be charged
- 6:36Speaker 5: with second degree murder, illegal operating of a vessel, and
- 6:40Speaker 5: he should be putting jail here and then when he
- 6:43Speaker 5: rots and he's old, then sending them back to where
- 6:46Speaker 5: he came from to collect welfare.
- 6:48Speaker 1: He is getting convicted of all that stuff. And I
- 6:50Speaker 1: think they'll probably, I don't know, they'll probably deport him
- 6:52Speaker 1: to just get him the hell out of here. But
- 6:54Speaker 1: Vincent great call is always hey when we come back,
- 6:57Speaker 1: the great economist Steve Moore, Now all this stuff, you
- 7:01Speaker 1: can hear this all day. Oh the trill forty trillion
- 7:04Speaker 1: dollar debt. The economies in shimp will get the real
- 7:06Speaker 1: story in a minute on seven ten WR
