- 0:09Speaker 1: was he was quote not quoted or heard at some
- 0:12Speaker 1: point in a performance late in life saying, and I
- 0:15Speaker 1: believe the quote is God, I hate that song. That's
- 0:21Speaker 1: wouldn't you ever ever wondered? Do you ever wonder? I mean,
- 0:24Speaker 1: even if it's a great song. And let's not use
- 0:27Speaker 1: the Beatles because they'd only toured until nineteen sixty six.
- 0:29Speaker 1: But if there is somebody, I mean Barry Manilow who's
- 0:32Speaker 1: still out there at ninety does like kind of got
- 0:34Speaker 1: to do Mandy again?
- 0:35Speaker 2: Or if you're real, I'll give you a real world example.
- 0:38Speaker 2: I told you the story before. I've seen Tony Bennett
- 0:40Speaker 2: walking in the Dayton International Airport. One.
- 0:43Speaker 1: Don't say it, don't say it. Don't say I.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Swear on a stack of Bible. Don't tell me what
- 0:47Speaker 2: he said of Please had a He had a garment
- 0:49Speaker 2: bag over his shoulder, and he was walking by himself,
- 0:53Speaker 2: and I thought, oh my gosh, that's Tony Bennett. And
- 0:55Speaker 2: I swear on a stack of Bibles. He was humming.
- 0:58Speaker 2: I left my heart in San Francis.
- 1:00Speaker 1: All good, good good.
- 1:03Speaker 2: That's psychotic. No, he's gonna be sick of that song.
- 1:06Speaker 2: What do you mean you're gonna hum that song? He's
- 1:08Speaker 2: clearly not. He's clearly not.
- 1:11Speaker 1: And good for him, because I thought you're gonna break
- 1:13Speaker 1: my heart by telling me that Tony Bennett was absolutely sick.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Billy Joel has had it with just the way you
- 1:21Speaker 1: are Well the.
- 1:22Speaker 2: Theory about Tony Bennett. I think Tony Bennett wanted somebody
- 1:25Speaker 2: to recognize him. I think he was just so starved
- 1:27Speaker 2: for attention. He's walking through the airport and he's coming.
- 1:30Speaker 2: I left my heart.
- 1:31Speaker 3: Look at me, look at me?
- 1:35Speaker 1: Yeah, I met Tony recognized a lot.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Speaking of speaking of musically, I wish you would have
- 1:41Speaker 2: done the damn Fogelberg Birthday with me. There is something
- 1:46Speaker 2: that I just love to the in the core of
- 1:50Speaker 2: my soul from the song the Holiday song and You'll
- 1:54Speaker 2: remember left my old Lover at the I love that
- 1:59Speaker 2: it is.
- 2:00Speaker 1: It is a two hundred page novel in a song
- 2:02Speaker 1: about love lost and longing, and it takes place in
- 2:06Speaker 1: the holiday season. The snow turned into rain.
- 2:10Speaker 2: Yeah, the imagery of it is so strong. I've always
- 2:14Speaker 2: loved that song all of one thousand percent. And if
- 2:17Speaker 2: anybody doesn't know what we're talking about, Same old auld
- 2:21Speaker 2: like the title the same Old lang Syne by Dan Fogelberg,
- 2:24Speaker 2: and I'll sell you what when it's one hundred and
- 2:25Speaker 2: forty seven degrees, it'll just kind of put a nice
- 2:27Speaker 2: chill in the air.
- 2:28Speaker 1: And as a songwriting masterpiece.
- 2:31Speaker 2: By the way, there are songs like that that remind
- 2:34Speaker 2: me of the holidays. It's kind of hard to believe
- 2:36Speaker 2: we're knocking on September. I know, here we go, here
- 2:38Speaker 2: come here, before you know it, here comes Francesca Hank's
- 2:41Speaker 2: least favorite holiday and then right into right into Christmas.
- 2:46Speaker 3: More on that in just a moment.
- 2:48Speaker 2: But can I start our eminem experience today with a
- 2:50Speaker 2: great text? I saw a post I saw on X
- 2:53Speaker 2: last night. I was doom scrolling as usual, like the
- 2:56Speaker 2: teenage kid girl that I am. I'm just looking at
- 2:59Speaker 2: going up into on X and here was there's a text.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Or a post.
- 3:04Speaker 2: I keep saying, text a post sitting here in Brewer,
- 3:08Speaker 2: Maine at eight forty one am Eastern time, coffee, hot,
- 3:13Speaker 2: gorgeous day and my favorite two hosts on the air online,
- 3:18Speaker 2: Mark Davis, Mike Gallagher. God bless gentlemen. How about that?
- 3:22Speaker 2: So if anyone who wants to show some love to well,
- 3:25Speaker 2: hello there at Thomas Moore, you say, thanks for saying
- 3:29Speaker 2: such nice things to Mike and Mark to get us
- 3:32Speaker 2: started today.
- 3:32Speaker 1: That makes you best? And Mark, I'm not and I
- 3:36Speaker 1: enjoying that. You're fresh back from Maine.
- 3:39Speaker 2: I want to go back. I want to go back.
- 3:41Speaker 2: I'm looking at property up there. I'm starting to I mean,
- 3:44Speaker 2: except that it's a blue run state. I mean, I
- 3:47Speaker 2: don't know. They may not let me in, but Hewitt
- 3:49Speaker 2: lives there. Hewitt spends a lot of time in Maine.
- 3:52Speaker 2: A lot of people do call the kind of the
- 3:55Speaker 2: craggy seashore, the coast lost u lobster walls. I mean,
- 4:02Speaker 2: my goodness, Hey, let's start. I want to start with this.
- 4:06Speaker 2: We haven't talked about the infamous cargo truck decoy escape
- 4:11Speaker 2: of Donald Trump. How do we feel about this, Mark,
- 4:14Speaker 2: Because I'm gonna be honest with you, take away our
- 4:18Speaker 2: support for the man completely, put onto the side that
- 4:22Speaker 2: we know how rotten the anti Trump world is and
- 4:26Speaker 2: they don't care if they don't care if anything happens
- 4:28Speaker 2: to him. We know that, But how does it look
- 4:32Speaker 2: that they took him, they spared him away from the
- 4:36Speaker 2: plane and left everybody else on the plane to take
- 4:39Speaker 2: off and like nothing was wrong. Well there's none of
- 4:42Speaker 2: them better. Could there not have been a better way
- 4:44Speaker 2: to do this? I don't know what it would be.
- 4:46Speaker 1: And for those going, eh, this was last month Ankara, Turkey,
- 4:50Speaker 1: Turkey NATO member, but a Muslim country. And I'm not
- 4:53Speaker 1: suggesting that means everybody's in danger on the streets of Ankara,
- 4:56Speaker 1: but you're a little closer to Iran. And the belief
- 4:58Speaker 1: was I guess that there might have been an Irani
- 5:00Speaker 1: an assassination attempt that may have been taking shape. So
- 5:04Speaker 1: they spirited the president away like a food cart onto
- 5:08Speaker 1: another plane, while Air Force one took off thereafter. Just
- 5:13Speaker 1: this morning, I've heard that. Look they had like fighter
- 5:16Speaker 1: jets on the wing. It's not like everybody, like the
- 5:19Speaker 1: lives on the plane were expendable. And of course that
- 5:22Speaker 1: was media, But wasn't it also like Carol, what was
- 5:26Speaker 1: again was Rubio on the plane on Air Force.
- 5:29Speaker 3: They I think they got hag Seth and Rubio off
- 5:32Speaker 3: the party.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Then there were some folks on that plane, I mean
- 5:35Speaker 1: there were there were Administration official.
- 5:37Speaker 2: But it wasn't just a reporteries. There were people on
- 5:40Speaker 2: the plane. I mean, and if that's your wife or
- 5:42Speaker 2: your daughter or your husband and your dad, you're going
- 5:45Speaker 2: to say, wait a minute, you got Trump. Now look look,
- 5:48Speaker 2: I get the argument. He's the most impressant guy. He's
- 5:51Speaker 2: the president.
- 5:52Speaker 1: There's a level of protection that he's going to get
- 5:54Speaker 1: by himself.
- 5:56Speaker 2: I saw an interview yesterday on Fox News and I
- 5:58Speaker 2: forget I think it was on Will Caine Show Her Somebody,
- 6:01Speaker 2: but no, maybe it was. I don't remember what show
- 6:04Speaker 2: it was. But there were two guests and one of
- 6:06Speaker 2: the guests was a military guy and a security expert.
- 6:09Speaker 1: And was it Hannity last night?
- 6:12Speaker 3: Who was it? Who did he talk?
- 6:13Speaker 1: He had two guests. There was a guy named Dan Hoffman,
- 6:15Speaker 1: because I've got Dan Dan Hoffman got the CIA, and
- 6:18Speaker 1: Rick Scarpoli, a former Secret Service agent, and he just
- 6:21Speaker 1: kind of wanted their opinion.
- 6:23Speaker 2: So look at you, Dan Hoffman, because that's exactly who
- 6:26Speaker 2: it was. Said what I was thinking, I wish there
- 6:28Speaker 2: would have been a better way to do it. And
- 6:30Speaker 2: you know what, the better way of doing to do
- 6:32Speaker 2: it would have been, please you ground the plane? You
- 6:35Speaker 2: just say we're not going to take off while there's
- 6:37Speaker 2: a security threat. Sorry, we're gonna make sure we eliminate
- 6:40Speaker 2: the security threat, and we're not gonna take off until
- 6:43Speaker 2: we know all things are clear. Instead, they put I guess,
- 6:47Speaker 2: And I'm trying to take my love of Trump out
- 6:49Speaker 2: of this because look I saw Joe, I saw that
- 6:52Speaker 2: miserable Laurence O'Donnell calling Trump a coward. We all know
- 6:57Speaker 2: what a coward he is. Look at him, he's sneaking
- 7:00Speaker 2: away in a food beverage cart.
- 7:03Speaker 3: What a coward? What a what a chicken he is? Yeah, hey, hey, o'donald,
- 7:07Speaker 3: how many.
- 7:07Speaker 2: Times have you been on the ground with blood streaming
- 7:09Speaker 2: down your face and somebody tried to blow your brains out? Thanks,
- 7:13Speaker 2: you miscreant, degenerate pig. I'm so sick of these people
- 7:17Speaker 2: rooting for this guy's demise. And so, no, he's not
- 7:20Speaker 2: a coward, he's following. What the And here's something about Hannity.
- 7:25Speaker 2: I'm glad you've mentioned Hannity. So Hannity is interviewing these
- 7:29Speaker 2: guys and he talks about the assassination attempt at the
- 7:33Speaker 2: White House correspondence dinner.
- 7:35Speaker 3: Did you catch that?
- 7:37Speaker 1: I set it up. I was. I said, let's see
- 7:39Speaker 1: what these guys say, and we're all going to learn together.
- 7:41Speaker 3: But what how did that unfold? Well, here's how it unfolded.
- 7:44Speaker 2: Now. First of all, our own personal friendship with Sean Hannity.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Let's take that into considered. Love him buddy from Lon
- 7:51Speaker 2: and I started together at WABC Radio in New York.
- 7:54Speaker 2: At the same time. He gave me lots of advice.
- 7:56Speaker 2: I was having lots of problems with the co host.
- 7:58Speaker 2: He advised me on that co host. He and I
- 8:00Speaker 2: were friends. We lifted each other up. I love him.
- 8:03Speaker 2: We go back many many years. Here's a guy who
- 8:07Speaker 2: casually shared on TV last night that when somebody tried
- 8:11Speaker 2: to kill Trump at the White House correspondence dinner, Sean
- 8:15Speaker 2: picked up the phone and called Trump, who was now
- 8:19Speaker 2: backstage in the in the safe room, and they talked
- 8:23Speaker 2: for a while, and Sean could hear conversations in the
- 8:26Speaker 2: background of the Secret Service saying, no, mister President, you
- 8:30Speaker 2: can't go back out there. Trump is sent I want
- 8:32Speaker 2: to go back out I want to go out there.
- 8:35Speaker 3: On the show.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Must want And Shawn's listening to the conversation because, oh,
- 8:39Speaker 2: I don't know Sean picks up his iPhone and.
- 8:42Speaker 1: Calls the leader of the Free world.
- 8:45Speaker 2: On the cell phone, and Trump answers it, that's my buddy,
- 8:50Speaker 2: Sean Hannity.
- 8:52Speaker 3: Do you think you can how many people can call
- 8:54Speaker 3: Trump like that?
- 8:55Speaker 1: I bet it's more than you think. I don't mean
- 8:58Speaker 1: it's a million, but I bet the average president is
- 9:02Speaker 1: so inside the bubble. Trump doesn't do the bubble in
- 9:05Speaker 1: some ways. I guarantee the bubble treasured media folks and
- 9:09Speaker 1: advisors and just friends and stuff.
- 9:11Speaker 2: For the call the President of the United States on
- 9:14Speaker 2: his cell phone.
- 9:15Speaker 1: Well, I bet you are closer to being able to
- 9:19Speaker 1: do that than you think.
- 9:20Speaker 2: He Oh please, what do you like? We've got a history,
- 9:23Speaker 2: but I can't. I would never think you call him
- 9:25Speaker 2: the guy. He's the president. He's the president, and he
- 9:28Speaker 2: almost got killed and I'm gonna call him. Hey, hey,
- 9:30Speaker 2: mister President, how you doing? How the how was the stake?
- 9:33Speaker 2: Well you're okay? I mean he's calling him talk, Sean's
- 9:36Speaker 2: calling him from his mansion in West Palms.
- 9:39Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna call Trump see how he's doing? What?
- 9:42Speaker 2: What?
- 9:42Speaker 3: Then? What world are we living in?
- 9:45Speaker 2: The Whole world has gone bonkers. I'm telling you, and
- 9:49Speaker 2: good for him. I think it's great for Sean. Speaking
- 9:52Speaker 2: of bunkers, I'm supposed to go off on a cruise
- 9:55Speaker 2: this November with Scott Jennings.
- 9:57Speaker 3: I wonder if that trip's now up in the air.
- 9:59Speaker 2: Are you're reading the Daily Beast is saying Caroline Levin
- 10:02Speaker 2: announced that, Well, Caroline Levitt is announced she's stepping down.
- 10:07Speaker 2: Guess who the surprise front runner is to replace her?
- 10:11Speaker 1: Not a Chance, Not Jenny Chance. I saw that too.
- 10:15Speaker 1: That that is and that is the Oprah for President syndrome,
- 10:19Speaker 1: where you take somebody who would be an interesting clickbaity
- 10:24Speaker 1: kind of thing to say and inject them into some
- 10:27Speaker 1: role that they will never want to occupy. Caroline Levitt,
- 10:29Speaker 1: God bless her. Where I think Tony Snow is my
- 10:33Speaker 1: favorite White House Press secretary ever, I think she might
- 10:37Speaker 1: be close. Second might be a time. No, she's my favorite.
- 10:41Speaker 1: Brandon beautiful baby, with that beautiful baby when she came
- 10:44Speaker 1: back to work, I said here on the show that
- 10:47Speaker 1: Count the Days, there is no way in the world
- 10:49Speaker 1: she wants to spend fourteen hour days of the White
- 10:51Speaker 1: House with that beautiful baby. I caught a little bit
- 10:53Speaker 1: of them. You know what, working women. Blook, well, you
- 10:56Speaker 1: got Russ working women. I said, noop, noop, noop, nope, right,
- 11:00Speaker 1: there'll be a vacan There'll be a vacancy and people, yes,
- 11:03Speaker 1: said Scott Jennings would be great.
- 11:09Speaker 2: Let me read, well, that would be the It's the
- 11:12Speaker 2: stupidest thing you can imagine. But you know what we
- 11:15Speaker 2: said that about Seb Gorka leaving to go to the
- 11:17Speaker 2: White House. We said that about Chris Chris Stagall leaving
- 11:20Speaker 2: to go take a run for Congress, Dan Bongino to
- 11:25Speaker 2: go become the assistant director of the FBI.
- 11:27Speaker 3: Mark, don't be so sure.
- 11:28Speaker 2: Here's the Daily Beast mega political commentary commentator Scott Jennings
- 11:33Speaker 2: is the current front runner to take on the prominent
- 11:37Speaker 2: role of Donald Trump's administration run coursion sources with knowledge
- 11:41Speaker 2: of the situation told The Daily Beast, I mean the
- 11:46Speaker 2: top Trump ally previously worked as an advisor to missing
- 11:49Speaker 2: Senator Mitch McConnell and worked on several of the Kentucky
- 11:52Speaker 2: Republicans re election campaigns. Now number one again would be
- 11:57Speaker 2: the dumbest ever. Anybody's tie his own. He's he's rolling
- 12:01Speaker 2: in money and he's and it's a job filled say
- 12:04Speaker 2: that about Dan Bongino, and guess what.
- 12:07Speaker 1: That lasted about a year and he's back in the
- 12:09Speaker 1: conservative commentary class, isn't he So?
- 12:12Speaker 3: Yes?
- 12:12Speaker 2: But yes, but but I mean, I don't know, fantastic, terrific,
- 12:18Speaker 2: But in a weird way, I kind of prefer him
- 12:23Speaker 2: in extremely valuable solid gold clips making liberals cry on
- 12:28Speaker 2: CNN more than bandying back and forth in the White
- 12:31Speaker 2: House Press. Again, I'd say that about Dan Bongino, I'd
- 12:35Speaker 2: say that about Seb Gorka. These guys had a bigger
- 12:37Speaker 2: platform with their shows. Christa Gall I mean, good for him.
- 12:41Speaker 2: He's going to be a congressman from Kansas or what
- 12:45Speaker 2: Missouri wash Away.
- 12:48Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sorry.
- 12:49Speaker 2: He's out there with Annam in those states and Uncle
- 12:52Speaker 2: Henry Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, somewhere out there in the Midwest,
- 12:56Speaker 2: riding around doing you know, pancake breakfast on a side
- 13:00Speaker 2: day morning with his constituents. But he walked away from
- 13:02Speaker 2: a very lucrative give and get a gig, and God
- 13:05Speaker 2: bless him. But here's the thing, Mark, You're leaving something out. Scott.
- 13:09Speaker 2: The people like Scott Jennings and Chris and Seb. You
- 13:12Speaker 2: know what they say when the president calls, you answer
- 13:16Speaker 2: when whether you serve at the pleasure of the commander
- 13:20Speaker 2: in chief and if he wants you. I think Scott
- 13:22Speaker 2: Jennings would have a very hard time, he wrote down,
- 13:25Speaker 2: and I.
- 13:26Speaker 1: Don't which is which, which is why I guess I
- 13:28Speaker 1: think the call is not going to be made, not
- 13:30Speaker 1: because Trump is, not because trumpet loves Scott, but maybe
- 13:33Speaker 1: because there's some back channel stuff where Scott makes clear
- 13:36Speaker 1: thanks a lot. But I'm really rich and I think
- 13:39Speaker 1: I think I'm good right now not watching me be
- 13:41Speaker 1: wrong about that.
- 13:42Speaker 3: So I don't know. Trump likes his TV people.
- 13:44Speaker 1: He shows.
- 13:48Speaker 2: All right, Well, hey, happy weird, We're fired up for
- 13:51Speaker 2: a Thursday. Can't wait for the podcast which go great
- 13:53Speaker 2: one yesterday and let's go. Let's join Join everybody New
