  Speaker 1: Hey, it's Mark Simone. Welcome to the bonus segment of
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: the podcast. Just for you podcast listeners out. There a
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: lot going on this week, So Graham Platner, more stuff
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: coming out every two seconds than another woman coming forward
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: about Platiner. This one says she was the ex girlfriend
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: who this is when he was cheating on his fiance
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. She said there was also someone
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: else she thinks he was cheating with, and that he
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: talked about that tattoo on his chest as you know.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Now he's, well, I thought it was a skull and bones,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: but as she is claiming that he knew it was
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: a Nazi tattoo. In fact, she complained, she says, you
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: got a Nazi tattoo right on your chest, and well,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: you know, he talked about it. So this is the
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: problem this guy's got. Every two seconds, it's going to
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: be another woman coming out. Now once it's officially officially
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: sealed that he's the nominee. Republicans claim they got all
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: kinds of they're going to unleash on him. But you
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: know these Republicans, they tend to oversell all this stuff.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: So let's see what they what they really have a
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: crazy mom Donnie has quietly put together a personal propaganda
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: office and it's going to cost taxpayers. It was originally
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: talking about five million for this propaganda office. He calls
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: it the Mayor's Office of mass Engagement, but it's a
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: propaganda office. Turns out now it's going to cost ten
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: times that. It looks like it's going to cost fifty
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: million dollars, thirty five forty staffers. That's a lot of
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: people for this little propaganda operation. The mayor tapped a
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: longtime Democratic Socialist member and organizer, Tasha van Auchen as commissioner.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: They call it an outreach agency, but it really is
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: the Mayor's Office of mass Engagement. It's a propaganda office.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: You know, nobody's ever had this. The mayor has a
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: press secretary and a press office, and you know the
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: City Hall reporters. You want to get anything out there,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: your press secretary comes out, talks. It's called the Room
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: nine at City Hall. Room nine filled with all the press,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: all the reporters, all the media. Press secretary goes in there,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: tells them whatever they want. No, that's it, that's your
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: public outreach. But mom Donnie creating a propaganda organization this
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: is not good. Seattle's got one of these crazy mayors,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: one of these crazy left wing kookie mayors. I was
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: trying to drive business out. You know, they claim they
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: love tax revenue, but then they want to chase away
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the biggest, biggest taxpayers. So she was going after a Starbucks.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: They were going to pull out. Now she's backed off
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: on that. And then these kookie mom donnie type mayors,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: they always yell and scream about housing, but the one
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: thing they know nothing about is housing or how to
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: fix it. You know, there is government housing, there's city
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: run housing, there's a knight houses that kind of suff
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: and they're always horrible. Conditions are horrible, they're badly run.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Nothing is worse than the government doing housing. So this
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: crazy Seattle mayor, the mom Doannie of Seattle, she said,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: they're going to come up with these houses they're going
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: to give to people. A thousand of them are playing, yeah,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: the city will have houses they give to you. Well,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: look at this. It turns out they look like giant outhouses.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: They look like big, big porta potties. That's just ridiculous.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: They look like just picture a porta potty, like three
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: times the size. So they're calling it a house, but
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: it would be fifty No, it would be seventy five
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: square feet. I'm in a studio right now that's bigger
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: than seventy five square feet, So this would be a
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: house that's seventy five square feet. They have a thousand
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: of a plan. They're tiny units, about the size of
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: a jail cell. Each one has a single bed and
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: a desk. Each cost sixteen thousand dollars to build. Those
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: moving in will have to share toilets with other This
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: is government has This is what they've come up with.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: The woke mayor said the units are for homeless people
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: suffering from complex problems related to substance abuse or mental disorders,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: but without forcing them to seek help or even stay
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: off the drugs. What is the point of that, Well,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the point is, if you're a democratic socialists, you want
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: everybody on drugs, you want everybody stoned. That's the whole idea.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: That's why they love legalizing pot marijuana. Any Just you
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: stay stoned, we'll give you whatever you need, We'll take
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: care of you. That's the way the socialist world works.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: You got people who are living way below the poverty
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: line getting government handouts. And the socialists are living like kings.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: They're in mansions and palaces. Hey, you got the World
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Cup in New Jersey this weekend. You know it's right
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: if you live near the stadium, if you live within
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: twenty minutes of MetLife Stadium, you can make a fortune
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: renting your house out. You know, this goes on all
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the time for golf tournaments. You know, in the golf
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: tournament comes to let's say west Chester, there's a few hotels,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: there's a few nice hotels in Westchester. But a lot
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: of the players will come with the caddy, with their staff,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: with their family. You know, the player comes with like
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: twelve people with them. So a lot of the players,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: and they've been doing this for years. Right near the
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: country club, they look for houses they can rent and
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: it's only for a week or so, but they'll pay
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: a fortune. They'll pay like, you know, twenty five fifty
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: thousand for a week to rent the house. So anybody
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: who lives like right on the right next to the
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: country club has been doing this for years. Well at
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium, anybody living within twenty minutes of the same
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: same thing. Players, teams, they all want to rent houses
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: to stay in and here's some people, in fact, some
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: of them spend a lot of money cleaning up their house,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: getting it ready. So these become the most expensive airbnbs,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: and you could get maybe forty five thousand, rent your
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: house out for a few days, a few weeks, forty
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: five thousands. A lot of people doing that around MetLife Stadium. Hey,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Jerry Seinfeld, you saw him at the NIXT game and
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: when Larry David saw him smiling, laughing, just laughing with
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: each other. But Seinfeld a recent interview said, whenever he
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: gets together with Larry David, he said, Larry gets pretty
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: fired up about politics. When he's having dinner with me
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: or friends. He gets so fired up, he said, but
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: he keeps everything funny, you know his angle, the things
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: he notices. But he does get crazy talking about politics.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: And as I keep telling everybody, I know, you got
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: friends who are crazy, left wingers, crazy, don't talk about it,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: don't talk about politics. You know, I like the Yankees,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: somebody else likes the Mets. There's no point in arguing
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: about it. You're not going to convince them. You're not
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: going to change their mind. And you know, Larry David
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: lived with RFK Junior for a year during the pandemic.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: These two guys RFK jor Larry David lived in a
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: house together alone for the lockdown the pandemic Martha's Vineyard.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: They lived together like the odd couple. I don't know
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: who's Felix. Well, I guess Bobby Kennedy would be Felix
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: in that situation. But that's how RFK Junior met Cheryl
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Hines through living with Larry David, and they ended up
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: dating and getting married, and it drove Larry David nuts.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: And that's why he created that Ted Danson character in
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Curb Your Enthusiasm. It was based on RFK Junior taking
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Cheryl Hines away from Larry David. And that's exactly what
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: happened in KERB that whole season of Ted David dating
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: his ex wife. So let me see, can I do?
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Can I even talk about this? Well, apparently it's a
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: big thing in the Hampton. You know, they go crazy
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: for facelifts, they get their lips puffed up, they get botox,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: the latest thing and what I call this, it's a
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: tightening of the vagina. There's a couple of doctors have
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: figured out some procedure to do this Apparently it's the
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: hottest thing in the Hamptons. All these women are doing it,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: you know. Apparently they're paying twenty five thousand each for this.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: These guys, I don't know. It doesn't say exactly what
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: they do, and I don't want to know. But the
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: big thing now is house calls. They'll come to your house.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: And there's some Arabs who show up in the Hamptons
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: on a yacht with the multiple wives and pay a
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: lot of money for these doctors to make a yacht
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: call and take care of a few women at once. Now,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: apparently everybody in the Hamptons knows these doctors and who
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: they are and what they do, so a lot of
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: people don't want to have anybody see the doctor making
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: the house call. So the doctor said, this one patient
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: didn't want me coming in the front where the neighbors
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: or anybody would see, so they sent a boat for
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: me to pick me up, and the boat would dock
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: in the dock behind the house so nobody could see
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: it for the street. But that's the kind of stuff
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: they do out there. Hey, they're all excited to the Hampton's.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: The first one has opened pop up bagels. They never
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: had pop up bagels before now, if you're in New
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: York City, all you got H and H Bagels, you
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: got Essa Bagel, you got all the great bagel places.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: There's a million of them. There's Utopia Bagels and Queens,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: considered by many to be the best bagel in New
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: York for it's way on Bayside. Queens. Utopia Bagels. They
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: are now opening all over the place. They just opened
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: the second one in Manhattan. There's one on thirty fourth Street.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: There's now a new one in fifty third Street. So
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: you see these bagel places springing up all over the place.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: But pop up bagels came along a couple of years ago.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: They're really good. They're a little different. They're a little
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: smaller and fluffy, and they got all these great gimmicks,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: like you can't buy one, you have to buy twelve.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I think now they'll let you buy three. They got
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the most incredible cream cheese spreads, you know, all kinds
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: of flavors. The new one is chocolate chip cookie cream cheese.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: But they really pop up bagels. It really is good.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: So it was a couple of young guys started this,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: I think in Connecticut, and then they open in New
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: York and there's a few of them. Well now they're
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: opening hundreds of them all over the place. You see
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: this with some other chains. Why is that hedge funds
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: are doing this? A lot of these hedge funds find
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: one of these things that's really great, like pop up bagels,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: and then they'll put in a couple one hundred million
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: and pay for them to open all over the place.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: So you just got one in West Hampton. They're all
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: lined up waiting to get in there, and you'll see
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: them all over the place. And then these hedge fund
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: guys go around looking for another another something that they
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: can open up all over the place and they'll kick
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: in hundreds of millions for each one. So you know
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: the Knicksery. If they don't win the series this weekend,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: they'll have to come back to New York. But a
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: lot of people were very unhappy about the security, including
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: the owner James Dolen. He wasn't so thrilled about it.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: They went really crazy with the frozen zone and everything.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: But even Madison Square Garden got a little crazy. I
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: guess it was when the president was their TSA style
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: screening and then no bag policy. Women couldn't bring a purse,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: no bag of any kind, which really annoyed a lot
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: of people. But listen, you can't argue they're doing great.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: It's an incredible moment. Hey, we were talking on the
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: show this week about Taylor Swift coming to Madison Square
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Garden for the championship game, and some think she was
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: there checking it out because it looks like that's where
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: she's going to do the wedding with Travis Kelcey. That's
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: right at Madison Square Garden. They're putting out some story
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: about it. It's the only place that would have proper security.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Well that's not true. You know, she's very publicity minded.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: She looks for every publicity gimmicks she could come up with.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: So that's probably what it's really all about. Now the garden.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: If you want to rent the garden, it's usually a
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: million to two million to rent it. But she's going
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: to do it like around the fourth of July, and
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: apparently there are no events scheduled first week of July.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: No events are scheduled at the garden, So it's open
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: rumor is she's taken it. Not to do this, you
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: got to bring in these wedding planners. They got to
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: decorate the place and anything that huge. You know, normally
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: you can spend like a million dollars on a huge
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: wedding decorations, top of the line stuff. But some event
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: planners say to do all the Madison Square garden. You
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: could be talking about ten million to even twenty million
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: to do this. Now she's a billionaire and she could
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: do this, So keep an eye on that. It could
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: be Madison Square Garden. Hey, Huntington, I love Huntington. Got
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of great places out there. You got Prime,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: you got Postopazzo, you got a million in great restaurants,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: you got the Paramount. There's a McDonald's they want to open,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: actually in Greenlawn, which is right next to Huntington Town.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: But in Greenlawn they're going to open a big McDonald's
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: drive through. The residents are protesting. They want to stop it.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: They said, too much traffic, odor, environmental impact, it doesn't
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: fit the character of our neighborhood. It's McDonald's, it's a
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: great odor. I'd love smelling those the big arch. I
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: love that new burger there. But protests everywhere. Hey, we're
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: out of time, but thanks for listening. This has been
