• 0:40
  Speaker 1: I was just reading the story the Master are doing
• 0:42

• 0:46
  Speaker 1: mess have decided they just want somebody to score at
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: that stadium. You know what, we can't somebody else. I
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: just saw this in the elevator at Fox. I'm dying laughing.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: Well, actually, what I've got it said singles night. Maybe
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: it's they realize many of the people come and can't
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: get anybody to go with them doing Mets game, so
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: they'll just come along.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like this is the problem they're going to have
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: with this event. Most of the people going to Mets
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: games these days put a bag over their head. So
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: how are you going to know if you've got a
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: good looking person.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Well, it is a strange thing. Dating night, happy hour
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: at a Mets game. There's no such thing anymore at
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: a Mets game. But you're a Yankee fan.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Right I am. I grew up in the accent, the accent.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: They're riding high right now, they're turning around. They hit
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: the ball last night. Things are looking up.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, your friend President Trump, he's a big fan
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: of Jimmy Failey, loves the Saturday Night Show. He's going
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: to Long Island tomorrow. Can you give him some Long
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Island advice? How to deal with those people?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: You know what, because this is true. I grew up
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: in Levittown, Nassau County, Bruce Blakeman Territory, by the way,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: And as you know, the Trump Man, he's like, he's
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: kind of like an honorary Long Islander. Yeah, you know,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: he plays a lot of golf, he talks a lot
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: of smack, you know, and I think he's gonna fit
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: in fine, Like, you know, he just needs to find
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: a good diner because you know how he likes to
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: eat on the road. Yeah, so I gotta send I
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: gotta send Trump to a good Long Island diner. That's
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: what he actually needs. In terms of advice. I can't
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: really help him at this point because Trump doesn't listen
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: to anybody anyway. That's why. You know, if you saw
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: my girl, Caroline Levitt is leaving to go watch Paw
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Patrol with her kids, and everybody's like, who's gonna be
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the press secretary? I'm like, guys, Trump is the press secretary.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: This guy just thirty five press conferences a day, literally
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: on them. It's a Doctor Seus's book. On the on
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the plane, on the train, on the boat. You know,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: he's talking to reporters. So yeah, we know it doesn't
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: matter who the press secretary is from here because he
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: never stops talking. No.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: And Caroline Levitt, you know, you know, she's got a
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: huge future in front of her. She's only twenty eight.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Imagine what she'll do in this.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: She is fremendous, Like she is such a super talented,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: sweet girl. I knew her when she was a White
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: House intern and she ran for Congress up in New Hampshire.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: And then her her family, her parents, and her husband
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: came to one of my stand up shows in Fort Lauderdale.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: And this is before she started working for the RNC
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: and then ultimately the White House. And she is a
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: really cool girl. And yes, I can't imagine how long
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: the line is right now to pitch her thing, you
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Yeah, And I've never had that line.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: I'm usually the guy in the line trying to pitch herself.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Hey what, but she is. Yeah, you're right to say
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: she really did crush that job. And what people don't understand,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: you know that don't work in media, is there is
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: a genuine hostility in the White House right now that
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: doesn't exist under any other administration. Meaning you know, when
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Biden was president, he actually just didn't talk to the
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: press and they didn't even complain about it, you know,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: whereas this one, every question is a loaded, seething Well
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: you like President Trump, you're literally hitler. So when you
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: say and you're like, wait, what that was a question?
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: So yes, she was the only White House Press secretary
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to be the away team. Every single time she stepped
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: up to the podium, she was the away team. It's
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: pretty commendable.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Hey, you gotta listen to Jimmy Fayla every weeknight nine
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: to midnight. Now, I'm just warning you. The only problem
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: with the show is you start listening to, you get addicted,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: and you keep listening, and you keep listening to and
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: you have a flow on that show that I don't
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: know how you do it because I just start doing
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: three hours. It's killing me. But you just start talking
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: and it flows for three hours, And tell me the secret.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Is the magic trick is you don't do three hours.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: You do ten minutes at the top of this hour,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: nine minutes after you come back from commercial, you know,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: twelve minutes after that break, you know. So I look
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: at it as a series of individual shows. That's literally
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: how I do it. And each individual show, if we're
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: on the air twelve minutes, you know, that's a show.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: And then you go to commercial and you do, you know,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: two three minutes commercials, you come back, you're doing an
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: eight or nine minute show. You know. That's the way
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I look at it, and it makes all of it
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: spontaneous and fun for me. And you're gonna laugh, but
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: I don't actually prepare it that much. It's better for
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: me if I'm just reacting to things I saw and
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: it's a little more spontaneous, and because of that, I
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: don't I'm not really I don't feel the clock, I
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: don't feel the time. It really does feel like a conversation,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: and I'm just you know, I'm trying to find a
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: creative way to not tell you I'm doing drugs.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Hey in the TV show every Saturday night, ten o'clock
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: on the Fox News Channel. Best monologue in television. Of course,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: the bar has not been set very high here, but
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: even in the heyday, that would still be the best
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: monologue in television. And now people can be in the audience, right,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: they can get tickets and it's free.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Help tickets always free as Fox across America dot com.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: If you want to come down, you meet all the
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Fox people. You can hackle. It's a very involved show,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: like I during commercial breaks talk to the audience until
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: they're literally hitting me with a cattle prod to get
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: me back into my seat. But it's because a lot
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: of times the audience tells you things that you bring
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: up on the show. So like you know, if somebody
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: says they're visiting from you know, Wisconsin or whatever, you know,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: you might not have planned on talking about that crazy
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: lady that was running for governor, but now you're gonna,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: you know, because you come back from commercial and you go, oh,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: we had a person here from Wisconsin, and now you're
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: telling Francesca honjoke. Did you see that nutty lady who
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: lost this week, who uh running for governor complaining about
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: her proximity to whiteness even though she has a white
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: husband's She reminds me of that old Andy Kaufman bit.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: So do you remember Andy Calvin was? You know, he
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: has this alter ego Tony Clifton, and Tony Clifton used
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: to start his act by coming on stage reminding the
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: crowd that it was a no smoking ven you and
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: then he would light us agaf like and he'd walk
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: off stage. And that's basically this. Every one of these people,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: they're like, we got to defund the police, and then
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: they leave with the police escort. We got to get
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: rid of these white guys. Then they go home to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: their white husband. You know, it's all that Andy Kaufman did.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: It's kind of funny when you think of it that way.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Hey, you also pointed out it's a great point. They
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: always blurt these things up. And as you say, they
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: never tell you what's next. Defund the police, tax the rich.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: They never say what's next or ever get to the
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: consequences of this.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: No, they just want to wreck things. It's the point.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: It's like when you're a little kid and you're playing
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: with blocks. The most exciting thing is not building a building,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: it's running through it and knocking it back down. And
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: these are children. That's the same thing. We built all
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the building blocks, and they just want to walk into
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: the room and kick them down there. They don't have
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: a plan. They didn't want to clean it up, clean
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: it up. Excuse me?
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, we listen to Jimmy Faylor every night nine
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: to midnight here on w R. What do you got
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: tonight coming up?
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, buddy, Jim Jordan's gonna be on Great State of Ohio. Yes,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: he actually represents Neil Armstrong's district. That's where my wife
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: is from. My wife, Jenny, lives in the fourth Congressional
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: District of Ohio. She went to lived in the hometown
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: of Neil Armstrong, the guy who pretended he walked on
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: the moon. And we're gonna have that. I'm kidding I'm kidding,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: but Jim Jordan's on and comedian Dave Landau one of
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: my favorite guys in the world. So we'll have the
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: dumb The Dumb Button will be working overtime for this one.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: And then you gotta watch this TV show every Saturday
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: night at ten o'clock on the Fox News Channel. Now,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: you tape that on Friday nights. If people want to
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: come sit in the audience.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Friday night taping, yep. If anybody listening wants to go,
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the tickets are free. It's Fox Across America dot com.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: You'll meet the whole show. You'll be a part of
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: the show, which is really a cool, unique thing that
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: we do. And you know, you're also tasked with keeping
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: me sober before I do Hannity every Friday night. You
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: come as a fan, but you stay with a job.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: It's going to be great.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Now, if you watch Colbert, it's a four minute monologue
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: and he's got seventeen writers. You do like a twenty
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: minute monologue and you got how many writers.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Do you have? You don't just me, baby, I write
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: my whole show man, every script, every intro, every outru
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: It's on me. Now, I like that because it sounds
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: more organic, it sounds like me. That's what makes it
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: come off well. But you have to have the ability
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: to do that. Guys like Colbert don't have that. Jimmy
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Kimmel doesn't have that. They're not really writers, you know,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: they're TV personality, they're presenters. And because if they were
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: true comedians and true writers, they'd have better instincts. Because
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: to be a good writer you have to have good
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: instincts like, don't do this, it won't work. That's why
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: they're willing to get on TV and do the kind
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: of garbage that they do. Like someone with good instincts
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: does not dress up as a vaccine needle and do
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: a dance on a show like Colbert did ye, but
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: oddly enough they use those needles to euthanize his show,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: so it worked out.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Also, they would know, if you want to get left,
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: don't walk out look like a math teacher every night,
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: which Kilbert did.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: So of course, well you get it.
• 10:06
