  Speaker 1: The Mark Simone Show on 710 WOR. Well, hey, it's Wednesday.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a nice day today. We got
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: a lot to get to this hour. The Carnegie Deli. Well,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: we'll get to that. It reopened. We'll get to President Trump.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: We'll get to the Ed Sheeran. Ed Sheeran. Oh, this guy.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: More trouble on this tour. So Ed Sheeran has Macklemore
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: as the opening act. Macklemore, the anti-Semitic, anti-Israel president. you know,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: you're just there to sing. It's like if you're Bruce.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Didn't Laura Ingram write a book called Shut Up and Sing?
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: You're there to entertain people. This is not about Palestine.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: This is not about Israel. You're just there to entertain people.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Not to mention you're a rock and roll guy. You
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: got an IQ of about 87. We don't need your
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: opinion on all of this stuff. So Macklemore was forced
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: off the tour because he was opening for Ed Sheeran
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Macklemore with his anti-Israel, anti-Semitic crap. Some venues didn't want
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: to allow him there, including Bob Craft. Good for him
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: at Gillette Stadium. So he was removed from the tour, Macklemore. Well,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: now everybody's quitting the Ed Sheeran tour. All the people
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: that were opening for him. Billie Eilish has got a brother, Phineas. Phineas?
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Phineas Eilish? Hey. Irish singer-songwriter Aaron Rowe, Danish band Lucas Graham,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Irish folk group, all these people, they're all quitting. They're
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: not going to open for Ed Sheeran in solidarity with
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: the anti-Semite Macklemore, who likes to come out and yell,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: free Palestine. You know, you pay a couple hundred dollars
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: for a concert ticket and have some guy lecture you
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: about something, and it has to be something anti-Semitic. And
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: he was wearing a kifa draped over his shoulders. So
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: they're all out. They will not open for Ed Sheeran.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: You know what? Get a comedian. Although with that crowd,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know if that'll work. Ed Sheeran is trying
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: to spin this. He's backing off. Oh, no, he's actually
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: backing Macklemore. He's Sheeran is saying. It was the promoter's decision.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: It was not mine. Macklemore's contract for the tour was
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: with the promoter, not me. I don't know. I don't know.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: If you're going to back somebody, not this anti-Semite. Maybe
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: it was. I mean, obviously, it's the promoter involved. But
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: it's you. It's your tour. And good for the promoter.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Just throw these guys off the tour. You know what?
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: You're there to sing, entertain. That's it. We don't want
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: to hear from you on anything else. Hey, we were
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: talking about these AI companies before. They are loaded up with,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: first of all, left-wing, real left-wing Obama people. They're loaded
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: up with a lot of CIA, ex-CIA, those same guys
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: who launched the Russia hoax. You'd recognize the names. The
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: same guys who that were involved with the cover-up of
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: the Hunter Biden laptop, you know, signing those lists. So
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: these guys, these AI companies, you have any idea how
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: much money they make? It's not billions. It's like trillions,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: this cartel. So they can buy off these politicians left
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: and right. Now, they happen to be Democrats, so they
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: bought off the Democrats. And they're big Democratic donors. You
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: can buy off the Republicans, too. Plenty of companies do that.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: But these guys have bought off Democrats. They are very,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: very busy coordinating things. this cartel. Obama is sort of
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: their coach. He's advising them on this. So this whole,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: we demand to be regulated, as John Carney, the best
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: business brain of all, explained to us before. It's happened
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: before where a bunch of companies, a handful of companies,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: totally monopolize and dominate an industry. They become a cartel,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: and then they call for regulations. bureaucracy, red tape, regulation
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: to keep everybody else out, sort of close the gate
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: behind them so no one else can get in. And
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: these four companies dominate AI. They control it all. But
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: on the horizon, there are a lot of young startups
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: that can come up. You'll notice in the days as
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: AI began, a company could rise up and take over
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: pretty fast. So they want a ton of regulation. Stop
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: that from happening. The Carnegie Deli reopened yesterday. There was
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: a line down the block. Check out my Instagram. You
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: can see some pictures and stuff. Go to MarkSimoneNYC at Instagram.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: The original Carnegie, the famous Carnegie of the 70s, 80s, 90s.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: That was Leo Steiner, the great Leo Steiner. His partner,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Milton Parker. Leo was the personality. The guy that was
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: always all over television. The guy that was friends with
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: all the celebrities. He died young. Milton Parker was more
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: the serious guy, the business guy. And he ran it.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: He kept the place going. And it's now run. It
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: was run a few years ago by his daughter, Marion.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: It's actually Marion Harper. But now her daughter, granddaughter of
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the original owner, Sari Harper, is the new boss, the
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: new CEO running the Carnegie. It's in a different location.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Strangely enough, it's where the Stage Deli was, their arch
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: rival for years. It's, I think, nicer looking. I think
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: it's a little smaller. Well, the old Carnegie was about
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: the same size, but then remember they knocked through to
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: the next door and took over that building. But it's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: a nice size and shape. It's very well laid out.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: The food is as good as ever. The sandwiches are
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: bigger than ever. Prices didn't go up very much. They
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: now added, besides the great cheesecake, they've added a black
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: and white cookie that's very good. So the Carnegie is back.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: A lot of people there yesterday. Here's a customer. Everybody's
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: trying to be modern. Everybody's trying to be cool and chic.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: And this is just nostalgic, original, what delis in New
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: York are all about. And there aren't any of those
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: around like this. Yeah, you know, everything is, you're right.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Everything's modern. Everything's new. And if you're the big Instagram
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: food sensation, you know it's going to be dot cake.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Right now it's this bakery downtown called Rye. That's the
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: hot thing. It's a $ 60 loaf of rye bread that's incredible.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: And you can go in and get slices. You can
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: get a slice with different toppings. That's like the hot
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Instagram thing right now. Delis were gone. Delis were dead.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Diners are dying. You know, the younger generations came along
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: that weren't interested in delis. You know, younger generations, especially
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: in the Jewish community, the young generations, they don't want
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: to go to the Catskills. They don't want to go
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: to a deli. They want all the modern stuff. So
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: it's tough to be an Instagram sensation as a deli
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: selling a pastrami sandwich. But Carnegie doing very well. There's
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: a guy that, he lives in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh, but he
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: would come in a couple times a year for the Carnegie.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: He was the first guy in line. He waited many
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: hours in line yesterday. And they even put his picture on.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: There's a wall of pictures. If you look hard, you'll
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: find my picture up there somewhere. But yeah. this guy,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: they decided to put his picture on the wall. You
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: drove all the way from Pennsylvania.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: You're going to be on the wall of fame.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Why, why, why Carnegie deli? Why is this such an
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: important place for you? Now I'm going to ask you
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: a better question. Are you out of your mind? This
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: is the only place to be. Yeah. Well, it is.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: It is. Uh, all right. The most famous thing there
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: is the pastrami rye mustard. Uh, some people like the
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: corned beef. They got a, uh, a new one. It's a, Actually,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I think it's everything. It's corned beef, pastrami, turkey, like
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: everything on one sandwich. It's about a foot high. Very
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: tough to eat. The cheesecake is as good as ever. Again,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: the black and white cookie has been added. The one
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: thing I wish they... You can't find this anymore, but
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: they used to have the rudest... Not rude. Surly waiters.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Surly waiters. Those big, fat, old... Herb, what's his name?
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: What do you have? What else? What else? They're barking
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: at you. They're all young, nice-looking, sharp people. So it's different.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: But I guess you can't find those kind of guys anymore.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: They don't exist anymore. Those old countermen that worked behind
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: the deli slicing and dicing, they all had big muscles
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: and tattoos, and they were all from Brooklyn to Bronx.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: You don't find it. Everybody was very young working in there,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: very young. But it's a great place. The New Carnegie is...
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: One block south of the old Kearney. It's where the
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: old Stage Deli was. Go in and try it. You'll
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: love it. It's doing very, very well. It's not that bad.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, you don't have to wait too long, but
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: it's very, very good. We're waiting for 2 o'clock. The
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Fed will announce most likely a rate hike of a
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: quarter of a point, but it'll be the first hike
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: in three years. The president won't be too happy about it,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: but it's probably the right thing to do, the quarter
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: of a point. The stock market, they like it. The
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: stock market is pretty even right now, not dropping. We'll
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: see what happens. And then the big problem is the
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: price of oil. It's up. It's up way too high
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: right now. Our oil that we use, $ 102 a barrel.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Brent crude, the rest of the world uses, about $ 105
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: a barrel. Big problem is diesel fuel. Diesel is way up.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: President Trump blaming Zelensky for that because Zelensky has been
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: very good at fighting off Russia and he's really been
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: on the offense. He's been launching, he's got these missiles
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: and drones that he's built there in these factories that
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: he created, long range missiles and drones, and he's been
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: able to strike deep into Russia and he's been hitting
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: their fuel refineries and taking out but he's knocked out
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: some of their diesel refineries that make the diesel fuel.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: And the result of that is diesel prices are rising
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: all over the world. And that's to hurt Russia because
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: that's what they sell, but it's hurting everybody, including us
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: with the high diesel fuel. So apparently the president yelling
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: at Zelensky, stop hitting the diesel refineries, stop going after them. Hey,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: we talked about this Gavin Newsom interview with Jake Tapper, the,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Two of the most boring guys on CNN, they were
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: fly fishing. I forgot to mention the other thing. In
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: this interview, if you watch it, which nobody did, and
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: it's too long, who the hell can watch the whole thing?
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Newsom admits, actually admits to making all kinds of mistakes
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: during the pandemic, the lockdown. He now admits closing the
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: beaches was pretty dumb. Closing the beaches was pretty stupid.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: It didn't make any sense at all. A lot of
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: places did not close beaches, but he did. He also
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: said they made huge mistakes about closing the schools. They
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: didn't reopen when they should have. And, of course, remember
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Fauci made some of the dumbest recommendations ever. But it's
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: nice to see people admit that kind of stuff. Hey,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: we talked about this before. Harry Reid, when Mitt Romney
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: was running for president, he was doing pretty well. And
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: the law is you can say anything on the floor
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: of the Senate. Nobody can sue you for it. So
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Harry Reid, Harry Reid, all of a sudden the Senate
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: floor claims that Romney has not paid his taxes in years.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: There's no truth to this. It's total fiction. He just lied.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: He just made it up. I forgot. Joe Conscious sent
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: me this. Reid later, when he was out of office,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: admitted he lied, said he had no regrets about it.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: He said it was the right thing to do at
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: the time. Unbelievable. That he would actually admit it.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: He used the Senate floor to go after GOP mega donors,
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: the Koch brothers, and accused Mitt Romney of not paying
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: his taxes with no evidence. Let him prove that he
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: has paid taxes because he hasn't.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: A lie. The Koch brothers, no one would help me.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: They were afraid the Koch brothers would go after them.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: So I did it on my own. So no regrets
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: about Mitt Romney, about the Koch brothers. Some people even
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: called it McCarthyite. No, no regrets. He doesn't regret lying
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: because he got that law, which they should change. You
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: can say anything you want on the Senate floor. Nobody
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: can sue you for it. Hey, John Fetterman, you know,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: he's a very common sense guy. And a lot of
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: people think he doesn't fit in with the Democrats. He
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: should become a Republican. There's been a lot of talk
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: about that. But don't tell Fetterman that. He's not happy
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: about that. Take a listen. I'm not going to be
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: a Republican. And why can't you guys just wait till
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: the midterm, you know? And if I turn a Republican
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: and then I'll be a liar, then like, it's just like,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: my name is not on the ballot. Like chill and
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: wait for the midterm here. I've always been a Democrat. Yeah.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: First of all, he can't be a Republican. He'd have
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: to put on a suit and tie. He can't do that.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: He's a, The shorts, the hoodie. He always looks like
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: he's going to a basketball game, not Congress. And it
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: turns out, according to several exposés, he doesn't like to
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: work too much. He's barely there. He misses meetings all
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: the time. He has a system now where he can
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: show up for a second, get clocked in as attending
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: a Senate meeting, but leave immediately. So he's not really there. So, hey,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: there's stuff coming out about the assassination, the attempted assassination, Butler, Pennsylvania,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: of Trump. And stuff coming about the assassin. Weird stuff.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: And remember, he was cremated right after. That was kind
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: of odd. His family said they didn't have money even
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: to cremate him. So an anonymous donor paid it to
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: get him quickly cremated. It's very strange. Normally, we know
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: everything about an assassin. Nothing in this case. It's slowly
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: coming out. The guy was a weird kid who trained
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: himself to be a marksman at great distance. And he
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: would have killed Trump. He was aiming right for his head.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: You know, had he aimed for the chest, he probably
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: would have been successful. Trump wouldn't have been able to
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: turn far enough. But he was aiming for the head.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: And in the most astonishing coincidence, there's a graph that
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Trump uses about immigration. It goes at the end, at
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: the very end of the speech. The woman that runs
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: the graphics made a mistake and put it up too early.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: All of a sudden, she put it up, and he
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: turned to look at it. He said, that's not now.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: As he turned to look at it, just as the
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: shot was fired, he turned to look at it, and
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: that's why it missed his skull and only hit his ear.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Take a listen to that frightening moment. I want to
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: really see something that said, take a look at what
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: happened over there. And it was horrifying. I remember somebody
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: was killed there. People were shot behind Trump. So they're
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: looking into the assassination. Todd Blanch, the attorney general, he
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: did the press briefing yesterday. He was asked about it.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: I was there with him.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I lived it.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, you have a situation where it's not really
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: clear what the leadership of the FBI were doing in
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: the weeks and months ahead of the attempted assassination to
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: protect President Trump. That's the same organization that was simultaneously
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: trying to put him in prison until he dies.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, something weird happened. They should have known everything and
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: uncovered everything about that assassin within a couple of days.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: It's getting looked into now, but a little too late. Hey,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: we'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number. 800-321-0710.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: We always like to have some new callers. 800-321-0710.
