  Speaker 1: Now back to the Mark Simone Show on wr Hey,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: we'll take some calls. Eight hundred three to two one
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three two
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: one zero seven to ten. Let's go to Joe in
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: New Jersey. Joe, how you doing? Wait a minute, let
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: me push it again. Joe, how you doing?
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark, How are you good?
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: Mark?
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Talking about the agreement? Everything, everything? Two weeks, two weeks.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: They're running out of storage facilities. When is the straight
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Scoop going to come out?
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: It's already out.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: How do you say, already out?
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: It's already been out there. There are other storage facilities.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: They got about maybe another week and a half where
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: they're totally out of revenue. And the problem is when
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: you're out of storage facilities, straight up hormose clothes. They
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: can't export their oil when you're out of storage facilities.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: What they've been doing, they're actually out. They actually ran
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: out about about three now, about four weeks ago. They
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: ran out of storage space, so they were using tankers.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: They would take all these tankers and load them up
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: with oil, So instead of the storage space the tanks,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: they were putting them on these tankers, and it looks
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: like they just about run out of tankers now, so
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: they don't have any more tankers to store them on.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: So they really needed to open because once you are
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: totally out of storage space, you got to shut down
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: the wells, and once you shut them down, they dry
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: up and it can take a year to get them
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: going again. Let's go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: you doing?
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Good morning?
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Mark, Yes, Mike, I had a Sinatra question for you too.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Actually one how many times was the on Casson? Were
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: they friends? And I was recently on YouTube scrolling through
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: stuff and I came across a couple of videos with
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: him with the singer Dagmar What was this already behind that?
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: We'll start with Carson, Yeah, he started with Carson. He
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: was on in nineteen sixty four, Joey Bishop was the
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: guest host, came on with Sammy Davis. He was then
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: on again late sixty five, came on with Dean Martin.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Then next time was the famous remember he was a
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: guest and Don Rickles came on, surprised him. Go watch
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: it on YouTube, Sinatra Rickles. That was the other time.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: And then one time he filled in as a guest host.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Oh really that one, I didn't know.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: It's up on YouTube. He filled in as a guest host,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: and Rickles was a guest named Carol O'Connor and Angie Dickens.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: And he wasn't. It's a great show because the Rickles
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and everything, but he wasn't the best host. He's not
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: a talk show. Dagmar was. It was an interesting period.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Sinatra superstar in the forties, singing the great standards, the
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: great Gershwin, Coldportis and then this remember Mitch.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Miller, Yes, yeah, he was like Columbia Records, Capitol Records.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Well Columbia. He becomes the president of Columbia. Some people
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: blame him, some people it wasn't his fault. That was
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: happening anyway. All of a sudden, the trend was, no
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: more of these serious things, novelty records. How much is
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: that doggie in the window? That kind of nonsense. So
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: they Mitch Miller was the head of Columbia. That was
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Sinatra's recording. He made Sinatra record that stuff. And the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: worst one was with Dagmar, who was a TV star.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: At that time, it was called Mama Will Bark. Where
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: they bark, They bark like a dog on there, and
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: it ruined Sinatra's career. Now, a lot of people blame
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Mitch Miller for Rock and Roll, believe it or not.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Back then, they said, if it hadn't been for the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: recording industry going silly with the stupid novelty songs, rock
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: and roll wouldn't have been able to rise up and
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: take over, which it did.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: That's interesting theory.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: I don't know if that's true, but.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a theory. Now, one day I was with
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Sinatra the lobby of the Walldorf. You know how that
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: lobby is like a mile long, like from Park all
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the elections about five miles away. In that lobby, I
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: see an old guy walking. I realized it's Mitch Miller
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: and I said, this, that's Mitch Miller. He goes what
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: And as he got closer, Mitch Miller sees Frank Sinatra.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: This is forty years later. He was Frank, how are you?
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: And Sinatra goes keep walking. Pal not one to hold
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the grudge, you know, you got to give him credit.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: That's a great guy, a man of principal holds the grudge.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: As somebody said when he when he had the Alzheimer's,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: he said, it's sicilian Alzheimer's. He only remembers the grudges. So,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: all right, thanks for calling Mike. Let's go to Vincent
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark, Good morning Mara. And also Mitch Miller
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: made all those records, he had that TV show. Yeah, yeah,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: along with Mitch.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's he became.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: He had all those Mitch Miller records, which my father Brackley,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: who he had every one of them. Mark, it's really
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: great that you're doing the Lincoln Tech commercials. And last
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: night I got to think, and that's great that there's
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: a company picking up the slack of trades that they
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: used to teach in New York City vocational schools that
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: now all they teach this walk nonsense. These kids run
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: up a quarter of a million dollar college bill and
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: they can't even come out and get a good job.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, Vincent, that's why we love Lincoln Tech. These
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: kind of schools, and they're the best of them. But
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: these kind of schools so important. You know, even professors
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: tell me forty percent of the kids in college shouldn't
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: be in college. They should be in a tech school
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: learn the real trade. You go to a fancy college,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you end up with a degree in gender studies, and
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: you live in your parents' house for the next ten years.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: You come out of Lincoln Tech, you got a skill.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: You're a plumber, electrician, hvac whatever. You go right to
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: work and you're making a lot of money.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: And it's really sad that they once used to teach
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: this stuff in the trade schools. I mean, probably these
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: kids they would even know how to use a hammer
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: on the screwdriver. They probably break their fingers. And another
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: thing I want to say, who is the woman on
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: woah who does the commercial for the Fishtails restaurants and
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: she does all the rob Astarino commercials. What a great voice.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: You don't know who that is?
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: No, who is it?
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Well the great radio stars. That's Maria Melito of Q
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: one oh four.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: What a great what a great voice. I mean, along
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: with your great photo radio voice, what a great soothing,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: calming voice. I just have to compliment on that, along
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: with the great Lincoln Tech commercial.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Maria Alito's a big radio star. So Q one O
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: four s one right after Jim Kurve's got an incredible voice.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: She's been on for years. Maria Malis, I.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Just had to compliment her because I also listen. When
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: I listened to Rob Bastareno Show and some of the
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: other shows, I noticed it says, Hey, that's the same voice,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: and she does during yours. Later in the day, she
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: does the commercials for that restaurant. Yeah.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Well, we don't full around. I mean, we got some
• 7:14
