  Speaker 7: Rosenberger said, let's sake, Rosenberg.
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: Okay, this is the big story. Yesterday, missus Israel walks
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: into a bar in Williamsburg and who's sitting there but
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: the wretched vial anti Semite. That is New York City's
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: first lady, Rawa Dewagi, the mayor's wife. So I reached
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: out to all my buddies, Emily Austin Gazamba's Rocky till
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: I fondly tracked down Miss Israel. Name is Melanie Sharazi
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: and she's joining us, which is very nice. Right now
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: from somewhere on No, I'm not going to give away
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: where she is because you're crazy, you people out there.
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: So Melanie, good morning.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: How are you, hey?
• 1:10
  Speaker 6: How are you?
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: I'm doing great, Thank you for hopping on this morning,
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: and thank you for agreeing to do this. It's a
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: big story you hear in New York and now it's
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: all over the internet as well. Yeah, it's a big deal.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: So you had a big speaking engagement here in New York.
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: It's a couple of days ago. That's why you were here,
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: and that's how you ended up in this cafe in Williamsburg.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: Now did you know about that place? Did somebody recommend
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: that to you? Why did you end up in that
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: specific cafe?
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: So what brought me to New York was that I.
• 1:38
  Speaker 8: Was hosting the Console General.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: And the Consulate of Israel in.
• 1:41
  Speaker 8: New York's annual Independence Day celebration, which was a very
• 1:45
  Speaker 8: big event. And a few hours before that, I just
• 1:48
  Speaker 8: decided I wanted to go have a coffee. You have
• 1:50
  Speaker 8: breakfast before I have to get ready for the event.
• 1:53
  Speaker 8: So no, I just walked walked out of my friend's
• 1:57
  Speaker 8: apartment that I was saying it, saw the cafe, thought
• 2:00
  Speaker 8: it looked cute, and started sitting having my coffee, my breakfast,
• 2:05
  Speaker 8: And maybe ten minutes after that, none other than Rama
• 2:09
  Speaker 8: Duaji walks in.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: And not only does she walk into the same cafe
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: as me. She actually sits right next to me on
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: a bench.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: You can make yourself, make yourself.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: I said to myself, like, what are the odds? Like,
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: there is definitely a reason that this is happening.
• 2:24
  Speaker 8: I don't know if I believe in that kind of stuff.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: But there's no way I'm going to let this girl
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: sit next to me right now, and I'm not gonna
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: tell her anything. I'm always up for having a conversation,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: you know, even if somebody's standing on the opposite side
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: of me. As long as they're willing to have a dialogue,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: I think that that's the best approach.
• 2:40
  Speaker 8: To this kind of stuff. I think people are way
• 2:42
  Speaker 8: too divisive and divided. But I did know that obviously
• 2:47
  Speaker 8: she has a pretty strong sentimental wards Israeli for god.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Knows what reason, And so I decided to first.
• 2:53
  Speaker 8: Ask her for a picture, just to kind of gauge
• 2:56
  Speaker 8: what vibe she was going to be in.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: So I introduced myself, said my.
• 3:01
  Speaker 8: Name is Melanie, and I asked her for a photo,
• 3:03
  Speaker 8: and she took a photo with me, and she was
• 3:05
  Speaker 8: very very nice. And then as we were taking the photo,
• 3:08
  Speaker 8: I told her I'm actually miss Israel, and I saw.
• 3:13
  Speaker 8: I saw the expression change, even though.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I have to say, I mean this is this is
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: part of.
• 3:18
  Speaker 8: Her job as a public figure these days, I guess.
• 3:21
  Speaker 8: But she did stay polite and cordial, but you can
• 3:24
  Speaker 8: very you could, you could very distinctly see the body
• 3:28
  Speaker 8: language change, and.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: So I noticed this, and I told her, listen, I
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: have to say, I'm I'm very disappointed in the things
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: that I.
• 3:36
  Speaker 8: Have seen you posting or endorsing. But part of my
• 3:41
  Speaker 8: roles as Melanie and as Miss Israel is to engage
• 3:45
  Speaker 8: with people in productive dialogue. And I would be happy
• 3:47
  Speaker 8: to have a conversation with you now, you know. I
• 3:52
  Speaker 8: think that for the wife of a mayor, like the
• 3:55
  Speaker 8: right response would have been anything. But she kind of
• 3:59
  Speaker 8: brushed me off and smiled awkwardly. And then I asked her,
• 4:04
  Speaker 8: since I gauged this disinterest from her, I asked her,
• 4:07
  Speaker 8: have you ever met in Israeli before? Have you ever
• 4:10
  Speaker 8: gotten to speak to an Israeli directly before? And she
• 4:13
  Speaker 8: once again kind of brushed me off and said, yeah, yeah,
• 4:17
  Speaker 8: I have many Israeli friends, which I believe.
• 4:20
  Speaker 9: This boycott doesn't hurt Televiate, it hurts the wrongs. Jean
• 4:23
  Speaker 9: Levin just broke a story near Stue Mayor's so Ren
• 4:26
  Speaker 9: Mandanni just quietly deleted the city's Israeli business page. No announcement,
• 4:32
  Speaker 9: just access denied Japan UK friends, those pages are still
• 4:37
  Speaker 9: only Israel got deleted, so campaign promises kept. Congratulations. Here's
• 4:41
  Speaker 9: what so Ren Mandanni raised. Five hundred and ninety companies,
• 4:44
  Speaker 9: twenty seven thousand New York City jobs, eight point one
• 4:48
  Speaker 9: billion dollars in paychecks, and nineteen billion dollars in the
• 4:52
  Speaker 9: city's economy. So when a reporter pushed back against no Rehn,
• 4:55
  Speaker 9: asking him why are you doing this, Zoren responds with
• 4:58
  Speaker 9: I'll get back to you later with pacifics on this.
• 5:01
  Speaker 9: Oh okay, and we know why you're doing this. Also,
• 5:04
  Speaker 9: attorney Jim Walden points out that discriminating against businesses based
• 5:08
  Speaker 9: on their nationality is a violation of New York City's
• 5:12
  Speaker 9: human rights law.
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: Ps.
• 5:14
  Speaker 9: New York City is already freaking broke. Several credit agencies
• 5:17
  Speaker 9: have flagged the city's finances. Think of it like this.
• 5:20
  Speaker 9: That eighteen billion dollars that Zoe rah Mandani erased is
• 5:23
  Speaker 9: literally your subway ride. It is your kid's playground. It
• 5:28
  Speaker 9: is the finances behind picking up the trash America. New
• 5:32
  Speaker 9: York City is built on the Judeo Christian ethost free markets.
• 5:36
  Speaker 9: That's why Zoe ram Mandani deleted Israel and now he's
• 5:40
  Speaker 9: going to burn it all down for a ideology. So
• 5:44
  Speaker 9: money from the CCP and Arab oil nations flood American education,
• 5:49
  Speaker 9: media and sports. And we've seen what their money does.
• 5:52
  Speaker 9: It destroys so called American institutions from within. This is
• 5:56
  Speaker 9: what Zoe ram wants for New York City. He wants
• 5:58
  Speaker 9: to push out the innovators, the job creators, the financial security,
• 6:01
  Speaker 9: and hand over the power to the CCP and Islamists.
• 6:05
  Speaker 9: This is the playbook and he's running it.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: James Wilson is a hero. God forbid. Captain James Wilson
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: gets caught on video bad mouthing the mayor and they
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: got to transfer this poort bastard to the Bronx taking
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: nine to one one calls. That is not okay. I
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: don't care what policy is in place. There's a double
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: standard that exists in this city where the mayor is
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: allowed and publicly hates our police officers. And this cop
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: who speaks for sid Rosenberg and millions of other New
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Yorkers has now been demoted. So if the mayor is
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: allowed to talk bad about the cops, then the cops
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: in turn should be allowed to talk bad about the mayor.
• 6:50
  Speaker 10: So I saw the video. I did not, however, have
• 6:53
  Speaker 10: any involvement in that decision Nord in my city hall.
• 6:57
  Speaker 10: That was my understanding, is a decision that was in
• 7:00
  Speaker 10: accordance with NYPD's administrative guidelines.
• 7:04
  Speaker 11: And also breaking here, we have just learned former New
• 7:06
  Speaker 11: York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is out of intensive care,
• 7:10
  Speaker 11: but a spokesperson says that he will spend time recovering
• 7:13
  Speaker 11: from pneumonia before he leaves. A Florida hospital on Sunday,
• 7:17
  Speaker 11: the eighty one year old was hospitalized in critical condition.
• 7:21
  Speaker 11: His family gathered by his side. Juliani was previously diagnosed
• 7:25
  Speaker 11: with restrictive airway disease following his response at Ground Zero
• 7:29
  Speaker 11: after the nine to eleven attacks.
• 7:32
  Speaker 12: I wound up in the middays and I started doing
• 7:34
  Speaker 12: it with my good buddy Sid Rosenberg.
• 7:36
  Speaker 13: Yeah, you guys must have had an absolute player. You
• 7:39
  Speaker 13: were with Sid when Sid was all over the place.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Man, Yeah, you I mean.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 7:42
  Speaker 12: I'm on his show a lot now.
• 7:44
  Speaker 13: I like Sid too. No, I'm good with Sid. School Sid.
• 7:46
  Speaker 13: He's nuts, He's good. I don't Sid a low.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: Time I got.
• 7:49
  Speaker 13: I got only good things to say about Sid with
• 7:51
  Speaker 13: my experience with Sid. But when you were working with Sid,
• 7:54
  Speaker 13: I mean you didn't you didn't know if he was
• 7:55
  Speaker 13: showing up every day, right, Sid was at the lowest
• 7:57
  Speaker 13: point kind of right.
• 7:59
  Speaker 12: He began, he was fine.
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 8:01
  Speaker 12: Sid had his demons, There's no doubt about it. And
• 8:03
  Speaker 12: I give him credit because it seems like he's conquered
• 8:05
  Speaker 12: them all. Now he's he's really doing a great job
• 8:07
  Speaker 12: on ABC.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: I know where he is killing.
• 8:09
  Speaker 12: That said, I'm on with him a lot, which I
• 8:11
  Speaker 12: appreciate him having me on, you know, uh yeah, I
• 8:16
  Speaker 12: mean the first it actually happened twice. First he left,
• 8:19
  Speaker 12: I forget well, I don't want to get into what
• 8:21
  Speaker 12: the hold of the details were, but just told me
• 8:23
  Speaker 12: Sid's in reab and I did it alone for I
• 8:25
  Speaker 12: don't know a number of months.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: I don't even remember that.
• 8:28
  Speaker 12: Okay, Okay, yeah, Sid comes back and now we're together again,
• 8:33
  Speaker 12: and I'll give you the story and I'll never forget it.
• 8:35
  Speaker 12: So it's opening day of the NFL season. I believe
• 8:39
  Speaker 12: it was one of the years when the Jets did
• 8:40
  Speaker 12: not make the playoffs under Herman Edwards.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: So I think it was. It must have been A
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: three two thousand and three.
• 8:47
  Speaker 12: It was two thousand and three, and it's opening day
• 8:49
  Speaker 12: and I'll be a ready to watch the Jets. I
• 8:50
  Speaker 12: think they were playing the Chiefs that day or whatever.
• 8:53
  Speaker 12: And Sid was supposed to be doing the giant pregame
• 8:57
  Speaker 12: show right up in the metal lanes. Well, Sid doesn't
• 9:00
  Speaker 12: show up right all right, and come to you know,
• 9:04
  Speaker 12: they would and again I don't want to get into
• 9:06
  Speaker 12: it all.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: Weren't they in Atlantic City?
• 9:08
  Speaker 12: They were in Atlantic City. They were down here. I
• 9:11
  Speaker 12: guess Left was down here too, And I guess Sid
• 9:14
  Speaker 12: kind of went off.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: The rails in Atlantic City.
• 9:16
  Speaker 12: He kind of went back to you know, the kind
• 9:19
  Speaker 12: of crap he was going and all, you know, and
• 9:20
  Speaker 12: then Sid would tell you you know, oh yeah, I
• 9:23
  Speaker 12: get a call from Left.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: It's about twelve thirty.
• 9:26
  Speaker 12: I'm getting ready for the Jet game one o'clock Jet
• 9:28
  Speaker 12: Game opening Bay September. I get a call. I get
• 9:31
  Speaker 12: a call from Left. He goes, it's Older and what
• 9:34
  Speaker 12: do you mean it's Olver? He goes, Fid's done, and
• 9:37
  Speaker 12: he explained to me what happened.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: You want to again, a shot of adrenaline before you
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: drink that double espresso this morning, whether you're going to
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts or wherever you may go. That's
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: it right there. I actually sent that video to Lewis
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: the great Little Raffino this morning. He loves you too too,
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: because he's a musical genius, and of course he's Irish
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: and he drinks, which has nothing to do with you too.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: But I thought i'd just throw it in there. Well,
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: half of it does, right, that's true, you're right, And
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: those guys don't drink though, right, Bono doesn't drink. The
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: Edge doesn't drink. I don't believe. I don't even think
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Adam Clayton drinks. Maybe Larry Mullen Jr.
• 10:14
  Speaker 7: Does.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Some vices that you have to put
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: away goes the way it goes gold where the streets
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: have no name. And of course, as Bono does so well,
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: he's talking about Africa, and he's talking about Mississippi, and
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: he's talking about all these places in the world where
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: he believes there have been injustices. Nevertheless, I know you
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: love that video. Was that not a great video. That
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: was that live version.
• 10:40
  Speaker 14: Yeah, reairly huge impact was crazy. But that's their big
• 10:45
  Speaker 14: stage band. They're crazy, they really are.
• 10:47
  Speaker 7: Man.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: I've seen so many like you have, you know, so
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: many musical acts over the years and totally different genres.
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: I mean, I actually this one you're not gonna believe.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: But I sat front row right behind rose O'Donnell, second row,
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: actually with the great men's fashion designer that I'm not
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: going to shock you. This is going to actually lend
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: cuetens to Imus's theory, second row, right behind Rosie O'Donnell,
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: and saw a share live at Mohegan's Son with Joseph Haboud.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: That yeah, going to make sense. That's gay, that is real.
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: And you got to see this crowd. Everybody in the
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: crowd was gay. Everybody. Oh yeah, but I've seen them
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: all Springsteen one hundred times, you two twenty times. You know,
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: I think that's a show.
• 11:32
  Speaker 14: I'd probably be drinking that.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: That was actually a fun time, a good show. Back
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: then in those years we were doing the Imus show.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: Low and I and we started to have this not started,
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: but we had this amazing relationship with a kid named
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: Mitchell Grossinger who actually changed his name to Mitchell Edis,
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: but he was one of the grossingers. In fact, one
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: of Mitchell's brothers was actually killed in the helicopter accident
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: where Trump President Trump was four of his biggest economic
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: advisors when that helicopter or plane, I forget which one.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: There was a helicopter crashed on the Garden State. You
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: remember that, No, right, I do remember that story. Yeah,
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: that was Mitchell Edis's brother. So we got very close
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: with Mitchell. I missed at a ton of shows when
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: they first opened the hotel at mohegan Son because the
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: casino was there in Uncleshall, Connecticut for a while before
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: they went in the hotel. They actually invited me to
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: this huge event when they opened the hotel. This is
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: probably two thousand and two, two thousand and three, I guess.
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: And then Mitchell Edis brought live boxing to mohegan Son
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: and it was my friend Lou de Bella. Lou de
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: Belle at the time was a very big boxing promoter.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: He may still be, I don't know. This was before
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: the days I was covering boxing events for HBO, where
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: I covered every Mike Tyson fight in Vegas. I think
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: I did about twenty shows, live shows from Las Vegas
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: with Steve z Mack and Eric Lengguel, my guys down
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: in Florida, everywhere from the MGM to the WIN. Even
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: covered a Pacyao Margarito fight in Dallas. It was a
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: great time. But I started Lou de Bella doing his fights,
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: a ring announcing at Mohegan Sun and the guy that
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: taught me how to do it, because my biggest ring
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: announcing job was actually a card that was on HBO.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: HBO you believe this. I did the ring announcing was
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: before a Lenox Lewis fight, but I did it for
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: I forgot Pauli Malinaji. A few boxing bands out there,
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: remember that name, little guy, tough guy ended up being
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: a champion Paulie. And the guy that taught me how
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: to do all that was a guy named Jimmy Lennon Jr.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: You remember him. Lewis he was you know, Michael Buffer
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: was the big, big, big one, but he did all
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: the HBO fights. Jimmy Lennon Junior did all the showtime fights.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: Oh the show is a big deal. So he taught me.
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: Had to do it. Next thing, you know, I'm doing
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: boxing events for the Bela at mohegan Sun. I misses
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: doing live shows at mohegan Son, and I'm going back
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: and forth to mohegan Son like I take the train
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: back to Queens Now and I loved it. But that was,
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: of course twenty plus years ago, and those days have changed.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Some of those times at mohegan Son very reminiscent of
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: what Joe Bunino was just talking about with Brandon Tierney
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: why I did not show up. It was two thousand
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: and five, actually not two thousand and three Week one
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: Giants Carolina, and my career was basically over. That's what
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: everybody said at least twenty one years ago. I thought
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: it was. But I've been through many these things before,
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: and if you know my history of my career, I
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: went through many of the same things after but figured
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: it out. And this has been an amazing ten plus
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: year run back in New York on WABC and telling
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: every body that if given the opportunity to ever get
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: back to New York after the disaster that was w
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: N with Meningo, that I'd win. And I remember when
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: Chad Lopez reached out to me in Florida, you know,
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: because those talks went back and forth and back and forth.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: They were going to move on from Heraldo RIVERI here
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: at WABC. This was before John and Margo owned the station.
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: The Great Kats Matitis is owned by Cumulus, and they're
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: going back and forth. Do we hire Sid and give
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: them Bernie or do we hire Mike Lupico. And we've
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: had this story on this show a million times. The
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: idiot dentist. He really is a moron that runs that
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: ridiculous WABC New York City message board that continues to
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: say on the board that Sid would not be here
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: at not Priamus. I mean, he just couldn't be more wrong.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: I miss lobbied hard and I told Deirdreen Wyatt this
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: and I told them both, Deirdre and Wyatt all the time.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: Whyatt texted me again yesterday he's coming back on this
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: show before the Preakness. But told him the truth, Wyatt,
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: your dad, dear Joe, your husband. He don't want me back.
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: He lobbied against me. And the truth is it was
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: people like Curtis who's now a dead but he was
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: a great guy at one point, and Pete Morgan and
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: Joe Vittally and Bernard and Chad Lopez who said no,
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: Sid's the right choice. Sid can bring us to a
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: new level. And Chair did that. I know that. Oh
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Imus didn't know. That was after the RETC scandiate. He
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: had to be talked into it at lunch by Bo Diedle.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: Hobo's listening Bo Didle and come on now he ran
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Fox News. That's right. Bo Didle and Roger Ales had
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: to convince Imus to take back Bernie because Imus was
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: playing everybody else. He was blaming Bernie, he was blaming Sid.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: And I'm gonna here to crap on Imus. I love
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: him more and more since he's gone, and I'm happy
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: I'm back in touch with his family. And I give
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: Imus a lot of credit for my career, not because
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: he helped me, but because clearly he had a major
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: influence on my radio style. He did not help me.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: He did not want me back, that's the bottom line.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: But chand Lopez brought me back and it's been a
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: tremendous run. But listening to Joe and Brandon Tierney on
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: Tuney's new podcast BT Unleashed, everybody does a podcast these days, folks, everybody.
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: Brandon Tuney was let go by wfa N not because
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: he didn't do a good job. But because Craig Carton
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: was available again and he's doing a podcast. Sean Hannity
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: is doing a podcast. Bill O'Reilly is doing a podcast.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: Mark Levin and their independent mind you of their employers.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: It's not a Fox News podcast for Hannity, it's his podcast.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Everybody's doing it and they're all making big news. And
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Joe was on Tuney's podcast yesterday talking about me and
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: we finished we played that because guess who's coming up
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: in about thirty five minutes. Norm Layden's favorite guest on
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: this show's right. He really is right? Yeah? Now why
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: is that? I just he's like the real deal.
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: I like.
• 18:11
  Speaker 15: I like listening to him, and I like that he's
• 18:14
  Speaker 15: honest and in your face and he's great and.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: He matches your energy. He does not a lot of
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: guests match your energy. He totally does. You're right. Now,
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you something else that's great about him, which
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: is also similar to me. Now, think talking about maxing energy.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: My career in radio is weird. What do I mean
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: by that? Most of these radio people, you know, there's
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: Norman Lewis, they go to the Connecticut School of Broadcasting.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: You know that works, right. They end up doing sports
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: in Toledo, you know, sports in Lacrosse, Wisconsin. And they
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: work their ass off just to sniff stations like w
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: AN in New York, even to a much lesser extent,
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: much lesser ESPN and New York stations in Los Angeles.
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: You work all these little markets with the hope of
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: getting to New York. I never did that. I had
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: never done radio in my life, never took a communications class,
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: never had no intention of doing radio. And here I am,
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: fresh off of rehab and halfway house day in Boca Raton, Florida, jobless.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: Then my beautiful wife, Danielle says, I'm sick and tired
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: of coming home from work and watching you sit by
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: the pool. She was right, it was gross. She said,
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna get your job. She said. There's this company
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: in Port Lauderdale. It's called sports Line USA. I go,
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: what is that? She goes, well, they're an internet company.
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: I don't know much about it. But your buddy next
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: door who you play basketball with every day, Elon Backman,
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: he works there and it's about sports. So you're gonna
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: take the job. I said, okay. So I did my
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: research and found out that at the time, sports Line
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: USA was an internet sports company, sixty four thousand pages
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: of sports. Every team and every major sport had their
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: own homepage. They had message boards, statistics, you name it.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: It eventually became CBS sports Line, and believe it or not,
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: right now it's cbssports dot com. It was the very
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: first ever internet sports Internet said it that twice site.
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: It was before ESPN dot com, before foxsports dot com,
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: before barstool, none of these things existed. It was nineteen
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: ninety eight and I would drive from Voca ratone at midnight.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: Daniell would drive me. I got a customer service job,
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: making eight dollars an hour, boys eight dollars an hour,
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: trying to sell this internet sports site like you would
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: do with stocks. You know, they have these guys and
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: they try to I guess they call it cold cell.
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: What do they call that when they call and cold calling?
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: Cold calling?
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: Right?
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: So I would cold call, not for stocks, but with
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: this internet site that gave me a list of thousands
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: of names all over the country, and they go tonight,
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: you got Dallas, and I'd get a thousand names in
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: Dallas and I would call and go, hey, he you're
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: a big Dallas Cowboy fan, you're gonna love this. Go
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: to sports Line USA dot com and we've got pages
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: and pages of info on the Dallas Cowboys. This is
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: my job. And this guy named Ross Levinson, who was
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: in this studio a couple of weeks ago, heard me
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: on the phone one day and said, man, you know
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: a lot about sports. We're doing internet radio. No one's
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: ever done it before, Maybe you should try it. We're
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: gonna actually build a whole day of radio programs like
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: we have now a WABC. But back then it was
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: just the internet, not terrest. Youal, And I said, shurel
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: making eight bucks an hour, coming to work at one
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: o'clock in the morning, I'll do anything. And I did
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: it with a guy named Scott Kaplan. You guys know Scott.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: He's still on this show today. We're still dear friends.
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: Got some big radio start out in Los Angeles and
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: San Diego, and that's how it all started, the whole
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: radio career that has blossomed into this unlikely right. You
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: go from no communications class, never did radio hold up
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: in South Florida. After a long rehab stay in Pennsylvania
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: and then a halfway house stay in Boca and Boom,
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: I'm doing internet radio. That was nineteen ninety eight. Two
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: years after that, I was hired. This is unreal to
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: co host mornings with Scott Kaplan at one O two
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: point seven WNWFM in New York when that station was
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: Red Hot, Opie and Anthony the Radio Chick Ron and
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: BANSDN and Mike. And after that failed, the very next year,
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: Lee Davis, Mark Chernoff and Wayn hired me. That is
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: not a conventional way to get into radio, let alone
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: make your way into the number one media market in
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: the world. That went from no radio experience, never thought
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: about radio. Three years later, three years sports on Imus
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: hosting the midday show and doing the Giants on WPMN. Beningo,
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: very similarly at AN had these contests and put them
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: on during the summer. This was before they started doing
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: those at the mall. Though I don't remember the exact
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: contest that Joe Bningo won, but he won an on
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: air contest. No like, this guy's really good. He won
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: some contest ended up on wp AN. Also no radio experience,
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: no communications classes. So when you say that Beningo matches
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: my energy, we're also of all the people that ever
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: worked at WPAN, two of the most unlikely to have
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: big time radio careers because we had none, and I
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: mean zero, formal training.
• 23:46
  Speaker 15: Can you imagine if Danielle had come home that day
• 23:48
  Speaker 15: where she wanted you to get out of the pool
• 23:50
  Speaker 15: and get a real job, and she said, go work
• 23:52
  Speaker 15: at Kroger. I know a great job at Kroger. Where
• 23:55
  Speaker 15: would you be today?
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: I'd be a Kroger. Yeah. I mean I had a
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: job when you say that, because when I was in
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: rehab and Danielle was back in New York, but I
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: had to work. When you go to the halfway house,
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: not rehab, I'm sorry. I did my rehab stay the
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: first time. I've done two, and thank god, I've been
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: sober a long time. But the first one I did
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: was in Warnersville, Pennsylvania, at a place called Chit Chat Barms.
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: I was walking in Steven Tyler Arrowsmith was walking out. Okay,
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: and the year was nineteen ninety five, married three years.
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: You know the whole story. That was my uh, that
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: was my first rehab. When when I was done with
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: my thirty days, my counselor said to me, Okay, where
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: you're going next? I go, what do you mean? He goes,
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: you're not going home? Said, you've been doing drugs and
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: drinking for fifteen years thirty days. Ain't going to do it.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: You got to go to a halfway house. I said,
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: oh my god. Really, He said, yeah, where would you
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: like to go? And I said, well, the only other
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: place I really know besides New York is Florida. I
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: spent so much time and Hallendale as a child, and
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: you know I want the University of Miami for a
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: short time, so I yes, I'll pick Florida. Great, you're
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: going to Florida. So I ended up in Boca Ratone
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: and a place called book House on El Camino Boulevard,
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: nice little spot eastern east side of Boca Ratone. And
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: all you do is go to meetings every day. You
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: gotta do ninety and ninety ninety meetings in ninety days
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: and work. And you know they don't provide transportation. There's
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: no fancy dinners. I'm staying in an apartment with three
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: other guys, literally the size of this studio, living with
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: four people. It's a very humbling experience. But that's what
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: you need.
• 25:34
  Speaker 14: Well, don't those the way you came up unconventionally is
• 25:39
  Speaker 14: actually the way you should have Naturally you came up. Now,
• 25:45
  Speaker 14: you didn't need the training.
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: You had it as it turned out. Thank you was
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: saying that because it's true.
• 25:50
  Speaker 14: I mean, you and Joe are just naturally have it
• 25:53
  Speaker 14: and you cannot create that in a classroom or teach.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: That in a class Thank you. No, you're right.
• 26:00
  Speaker 14: I tot CSB for a couple. Oh you did teach them, Yeah,
• 26:03
  Speaker 14: I did it on the side. And people were coming
• 26:05
  Speaker 14: in and they were in their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties,
• 26:10
  Speaker 14: and they wanted a change of career and they thought,
• 26:13
  Speaker 14: I want to do what Howard Stern does. That's all
• 26:15
  Speaker 14: they all, Yeah, right, you have to You can't create.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: You can't create it.
• 26:20
  Speaker 14: You can't create a great actor. You can't. They can
• 26:24
  Speaker 14: learn and train something right.
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: And you can get better, but the real great ones
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: have the authenticity and originality that you just can't Matchine
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: And you're right, and thank you for saying that, though
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: it means a lot coming from you, but you can't
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: teach it. And with no formal training both there was
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: well end up they written books and we're in those books.
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: But getting back to my work story. So to your point,
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: I would walk, thank you, though. I would walk every
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: day about two miles in the raging heat of the
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: Florida summer sun from my halfway house in Boca to
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: the Strip Mall in Delray Beach on Lincoln Boulevard. And
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: in that strip mall was a place, and still there,
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: still there called Marshals, and Marshalls is kind of a
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: schlocky clothing store. Okay, it's not a bood. You can
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: buy four pairs of shorts for twenty bucks, and I
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: had to light the stuff there. I've got stuff at
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: home for Marshalls, but it's kind of low end clothing,
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: and my job was to full clothing, keep the place nice.
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: I think they paid me eight dollars an hour, like
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: I was making its spotchline. And I'd work all week
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: long and i'd get home walk four miles in the heat,
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: and my paycheck on a Friday, I'm not kidding you, guys,
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: would be like eighty five dollars. And that was all
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: part of the humbling experience to get sober. Then I
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: got a job at a place in town Center Mall
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: in Boca Ratone. They at a restaurant right in the front.
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: It was extremely popular. The name of the place was
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: L and N Seafooding that place, remember that, Yeah, And
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: it was great that I was a waiter there and
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: I'd make the biscuits. Everybody traveled from all over the
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: state of Florida from Tampa just to have the biscuits
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: at Element Seafood and Boca Attone. And of course you
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: might most of your money on tips, but you know,
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: when you're working afternoon ships in Boca, who comes all
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: the old people from Boca Century Village and del Ray.
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: They got no money, they're on a fixed income. They
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: can only tip you ten percent. So my paychecks there
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: would be about ninety dollars at the end of the week.
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: Maybe it'd make you know, one hundred bucks in tips.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: This is what Danielle was living with all the promise
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: I was pre met. I was a brilliant guy, and
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: I was done. And that's happened. Just so you guys know,
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: God four or five times tough out our marriage, which
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: coming up this June twenty fifth will be thirty four years.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: Thirty four times a long time. And she stuck with
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: me through all this nonsense that I put her through,
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: and the children too. So anyway, it was when I
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: listened to Beningo and brandon't talk about it yesterday. It's
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: important for me and I don't want to compare my
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: life to nine eleven, but I will in this case
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: because when we talk about nine to eleven, there were
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: two words Norman Lewis that we use when we talk
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: about nine to eleven. What are those two words? Never forget?
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: That's right, and for me, I can never forget. I
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: can never forget walking from Boca House to Marshalls. I
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: can never forget how I felt when I walked outside
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: my hotel room in Cleveland, and if not with a
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: picture of Ava being in my pocket, I may have
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: been dead that morning. I can't forget those days. So
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: when Beningo and Tuney talk about it, I don't get upset. Actually,
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: Joe b was really great. He didn't want to talk
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: about it. He said, I don't want to go into it.
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: He said that three or four times, which I thought
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: was very sweet. But you just can't forget because the
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: grace of God, I could be right back there with
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: all I've got right now, and I got the world
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: by the bulls and more coming. Just trust me. It's
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: a very exciting couple of months from me. It could
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: be gone. It could be gone in five minutes if
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: not for the grace of God, and I'll never forget. Okay,
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: let's get to the big stories of the day. Already
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: giving you thirty five minutes of the best reader you're
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: gonna hear all day in New York City. I like
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: to say that because it's true. I know Craig Caught
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: is listening. Sorry Craig, but this is as good as
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: it gets. And Craig has some very similar stories. By
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: the reason why Craig and I are so close, and
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: I love him, I really do. And he's a tremendous talent.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: The afternoon host of WU me in is you know,
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: he's got life stories. She went to prison people, you know,
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: a little taught at CSB. And I'll wrap this up
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: with this. People come to me all the time they go,
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: how do you do it? And I would always say,
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: half jokingly, well I want to rehab in jail, not
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: prison jail, and they go, oh yeah, I'm being serious.
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: Because the great radio hosts are the ones with life experiences.
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: Everybody knows about Iran, so what everybody knows, Mom Donnie's
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: a anti cop, anti American, anti Jew prick. So what
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: I mean, truth be told. You listen to this station
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: stations all day, you're gonna hear the same thing over
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: and over and over again. But the great hosts the
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: ones that get stopped in the street like I do,
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: and women cry, I'm not kidding you, the cry or
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: men cry, you've seen this lowest. I'm not even kidding
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: it's it's ridiculous, It sounds ridiculous. They cry, this is
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: really you? Oh my god. Those are the ones. Those
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: are the ones that go above and beyond that and
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: show there lives and talk about it. I I you know,
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: I say this all the time. It makes me equally
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: as happy, if not more happy, when somebody stops me
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: in the street, which is multiple times daily and says, hey,
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: how's Danielle, how's Aber, how's Gabriel? I love that they're
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: not something to say, Hey, what you said about Trump today?
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: And that was really good? You know me and I
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: get my fair share of that if I'm speaking out
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: of Trump rally or hey I'm with you on mom Donnie. Great, okay,
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: But you guys who are both Hall of Famers in
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: your own right, Lou, I think you're the best ever
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: at that position, and know them you are at this point,
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure it's even close. Sorry, Ben Meverrock the
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: best newest guy in the city. You guys both. No
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: one understand that the great radio hosts are the ones
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: that keep people listening when they're not talking about necessarily
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: the hits of the day. That makes sense, No, it does.
• 32:51
  Speaker 15: And you know what my takeaway from this whole story
• 32:54
  Speaker 15: is is that there was a restaurant in Florida that
• 32:58
  Speaker 15: let you work as a waiter. Can you imagine Sid
• 33:01
  Speaker 15: showing up at your table to take your order?
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. Not crazy. And let me tell you,
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: I mean I had no wait at that time. No
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: one know who I was. It was no radio. Its
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: crazy anybody, And and and I was a great waiter
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: because I was personable and you know, like, well, like
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: I do here and I told you this, These old
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: people will come in and I'd be standing by the
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: back and I recognize him. I go, oh no, no, no, no, no, no,
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: please please, And I'd see them pointing at me and
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: I start to talk and unpercover and go to my
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: my my sales floor guy, go please please, no, No,
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: the lovely people. They're gonna tip me eight percent. I'm
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: gonna hear about that grandson for the next hour and
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: a half. They're gonna have a share of salad and
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: share a biscuit, please please, please, And sure enough, Oh Sydney, Hey,
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: good to have you back. But yeah, I mean the
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: personality which you people seem to like on the radio.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: That was me. No to you a point. As a waiter,
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: I can.
• 33:55
  Speaker 15: See you like as before you bring it out to them,
• 33:58
  Speaker 15: you would like steal a scallop off their plate or
• 34:00
  Speaker 15: a handful of all.
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: Absolutely no. The worst was when you're a waiter at
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: restaurants and you guys know this are working right now.
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: You make the desserts, right, so you don't make the dishes.
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: I don't make the the snapper. They love snapper in
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: the middle of the afternoon. It was so gross. It
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: was a fish place, seafood place, you know. But you
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: make the desserts. So if they wanted a chocolate Sunday,
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: for example, I would put the ice cream. I would
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: put the syrup on top of the ice cream. If
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: they wanted wet walnuts, how hot is that? A nice
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: wet walnut? That was my job to do that. And
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: I'm telling you I'm not proud of this, and I'm
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: sorry about this, but at least fifty percent of the time,
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: the first taste of that Sunday was not the customer. Now,
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: I didn't do you know, people said like, if the
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: customer pisces, you up your spit on their food. I
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: never did that, you know, put my penis in their soup.
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: I never did that.
• 34:55
  Speaker 14: You know, why did you just mention that part of
• 34:57
  Speaker 14: it if you didn't do it.
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: Because my buddies did right in front of me. And
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: I was like, I wish I could do that. I
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: want to do that. What he want to do that?
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: But I just wouldn't do it. Was funny, a lot
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: of people do you kind of do that now?
• 35:06
  Speaker 14: So it.
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: Was it was so long guys.
• 35:16
  Speaker 14: Spectacular.
• 35:17
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: I had a buddy. His name was Ben, and this
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: guy Ben was like the most handsome guy you ever saw,
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: soone handsome, and he took a liking to me. You know,
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: I was older than him, but he liked me. Hold
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: on everybody, and he'd be bartending on the weekends at
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: a place called Club Boca, which I know you knew
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: very well normal, it was a hotspot and poor Benny,
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: again great kid, went to his cousin's wedding, I believe
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: in Connecticut. He was in his twenties, gorgeous guy, bartender
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: at night waiter by day. He had a heart attack
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: at his cousin's wedding and he died. Oh my god. Yeah,
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: And I remember that I knew I was getting better
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: because it hit me so hard. I knew that I
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: was getting my emotions back because when you're going through
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: all that. And the person that really crushed me was Danielle.
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: I told this story before the first time I left
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: for rehab. I had gone to Danielle's college graduation. She
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: graduated from Brooklyn College and I'm so proud of her,
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: and believe it or not, the commencement speaker for her
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: was Hillary Clinton, And at the time I didn't hate
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: Hillary Clinton at all. In fact, I thought it was
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: really cool that, you know, the wife of the former
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: president is going to be speaking, and she was a
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: state senator too. She was going to be speaking at
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: Danielle's graduation. But midway through that speech, I had to
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: leave because I had to meet my parents outside the
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: gates of Brooklyn college because my parents drove me to Warnersville,
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: Pennsylvania to go to rehab. And I remember leaving Danielle
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: and going on, oh my god, I may never see
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: her again. You know, here she is, she's young, she's gorgeous,
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: she's still gorgeous, smart, graduating college, and I'm a loser.
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: I was a loser. And I remember crying in the
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: car going to my mom dad, and they said, listen,
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: she loves you, and if it's meant to be, she'll stay.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: And if not, then make it a life lesson. And
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: when you go to rehab for a week, you don't
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: allowed to talk to anybody, anybody. They didn't back down
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: to one our cell phones anyway. If I maybe for
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: that I didn't have one. Maybe I did, I don't remember.
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: But you can't talk to anybody for the first seven days.
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: By day eight you can start to contact your loved one.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: So I leave her in the middle of graduation. She's crying.
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: I'm convinced it's over. I go to this Pennsylvania place
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: by reading, you know, middle of nowhere, and every day
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: was torture till day eight. And day eight Danielle call
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: and then they're busiting me that weekend. These were the
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: types of days and weeks and months I had for
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: a very long time. So again when I listened to
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: Beningo and Brandon Tierney, it doesn't make me angry. It
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: makes me feel even better because look, I could just
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: ignore all that stuff and act like it never happened,
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: but it did. And when the book is written on me,
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: when I'm God, and I mean by God, not by authoris,
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: or when God writes a book that's part of my story.
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: And doing the Billerwadi podcast last week and talking about
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: the night that Eva saved my life in Cleveland, there
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: could be a person listening right now Noman Loeu on
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: the way to work six p forty four in the
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: morning that is still lit from last night, could be
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: still high, still drunk, figuring, trying to figure out a
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: way to get through the day and kill themselves. And
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: if you are out there right now and you're listening
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: to this, let this be inspiration for you, because it
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: was as bad as it can get from me. Two
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: suicide attempts to rehabs, no jobs, was awful. Blue millions
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: and millions of dollars. That's not an exaggeration. I blew millions,
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: and here I am today at the top of the world,
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: and you can do the same thing. Your top of
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: the world may be different than mine. But I say
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: the top of the world, I don't mean because I'm
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: the number one radio host in New York. I mean
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: because people respect me. My wife respects me, my kids
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: love and respect me. That's the top of the world,
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: not the number one radio host.
• 39:45
  Speaker 7: See.
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: I'm sure all you guys thought that's what I meant,
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: and you're wrong. It's great, you know it's great. Trust me.
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: I love every second of it, love it. But when
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: you can go to bed at night and wake up
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: the next morning and people in and around you, when
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: I have my detractors still and people still call me
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: a junkie and a degenerate and all that stuff all
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: day every day, but I don't care, means nothing to me.
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: That's on them. It's not on me. It's on them.
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: But when people you really love, people you care about,
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: when they can look you on the face and say
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: I'm proud of you. Give one. Give one. In fact,
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna take a break now, we'll come back and
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: hit the big stories of the day with my guy
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: Noam Layden, on this already very emotional Wednesday, Sit and Friends. Thursday,
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Thursday, Sit and Friends in the Morning edition,
• 40:40
  Speaker 4: and we'll be back with the top stories of the day.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: Did all that personal stuff in the first segment. Let's
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: get to the big news of the day. I know
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: there's about ten stories about mom Donnie. One of the
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: stories that I played a video of this morning our
• 41:00
  Speaker 4: friend Jacqueline Tobaroff. Her brother MAT's a great guy too.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: But Jackie's on this show quite a bit. She's part
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: of that girl squad that I'm friends with. You know,
• 41:08
  Speaker 4: it's about ten of themen. They're great. She's going on
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: and on about this business page that Mam Donnie deleted.
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: If you know about this story home, But the business
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: page is the Israeli business page. She mentioned, like ten
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: other countries that still have pages up. I think the
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: Israel page is worth about eighteen billion dollars for a city. Again,
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: that's five point four billion dollars in debt. And now
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: Ken Griffin saying yesterday that he's going to scale back. Congratulations,
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: Mayor Moron, you found a way to lose Ken Griffin
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: he's not completely gone, but he's gonna scale back. And
• 41:46
  Speaker 4: I'm still not sure whether he does that six billion
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: dollar project on Park Avenue mayor Moron Way to Go.
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: But there's Jack Tobaroff story about deleting the business page.
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: You know about that.
• 41:58
  Speaker 15: Yeah, there's this back and forth that's going on. It
• 42:00
  Speaker 15: was reported that the New York City Economic Development Corporation
• 42:04
  Speaker 15: website removed a page that was promoting New York City's
• 42:08
  Speaker 15: business ties to Israel. But they claim the EEDC the
• 42:13
  Speaker 15: Economic Development Corporations that no, no, it was taken down in
• 42:16
  Speaker 15: March as part of a regular updating of the page.
• 42:19
  Speaker 15: So which is true, I do not know, But they
• 42:21
  Speaker 15: claim there is nothing sinister going on here.
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: Nothing. Huh yeah, Well, I just got this message from
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: Bruce Blakeman. Hey, Sid, I was in the Oval office
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: for ninety minutes two days ago. I told President Trump
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: you sent your regards. He responded with Sid, it's a
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: great guy. I agree.
• 42:41
  Speaker 7: Uh uh.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: Let's got Bruce on today. Hey, Bruce, you've been listening.
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: Call let's figure this out. Let's get you on. I
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: want to hear more about you and Trump talking about me.
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: I don't care about the taxes. I'll text Bruce after
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: the segment. Okay, So that's that's that one Mom Donnie story.
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: Captain James Wilson is still taking nine one one calls
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: in the Bronx, right, that hasn't changed. Yeah, No, that's
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: where he is. And I told you about Ken Griffin.
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: He's quote scaling back. That's not great. What else is
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: going on with Mam Donnie? Anything else? Uh?
• 43:14
  Speaker 15: That's the big story in Mom Donnie weighing in on
• 43:16
  Speaker 15: this captain saying that he had no hand in making
• 43:20
  Speaker 15: the decision to put him up in that nine one
• 43:22
  Speaker 15: one center up in the Bronx that he' said it
• 43:24
  Speaker 15: was definitely you know it is the police commissioner or
• 43:26
  Speaker 15: the people that work for her, Yes.
• 43:27
  Speaker 4: Sax vision, that's fine. Maybe you know, And uh, here's nothing.
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: Stop sending me stuff on social media and nasty stuff
• 43:34
  Speaker 4: about Jessica. I know some of you rank and file
• 43:37
  Speaker 4: cops don't like her. Well, you're dumb. And I never
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: met him. Out of the cops. I love the cops
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: and a lot of them don't like her. I get it.
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: Don't send it to me. I don't care. You're not
• 43:45
  Speaker 4: going to change my mind. I think she's terrific. She's
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: got no choice. She has no choice. So Mam Donnie
• 43:52
  Speaker 4: didn't call her this time. You don't know that one
• 43:55
  Speaker 4: of these Mom Donnie stiffs that worked for him could
• 43:58
  Speaker 4: have very easily intimated to Delaney Kempner, not even Jessica Tish.
• 44:03
  Speaker 4: Delaney Kempner is in your best interest to demote this guy.
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: He's a liar anyway, the mayor. But what do you
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: want Jessica Tish to do? What's she supposed to do?
• 44:11
  Speaker 4: No fu so be gone. She's sticking around Jessica Tish
• 44:16
  Speaker 4: for you, you dumb bastards, for you, because when she's gone
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: up you think she's no good. Get ready for the
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: next one. Some dsa crazy Muslim who's gonna tell you
• 44:29
  Speaker 4: when you can go to the bathroom where you should pray,
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: what you should eat? And then what stop pitching about
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: Jessica Tish, you dumb mother efforts. Stop it. God, it's
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: pissing me off. What else normal?
• 44:43
  Speaker 13: You know?
• 44:43
  Speaker 15: It's even more disturbing about this story is so the
• 44:46
  Speaker 15: video they're using to take Captain James Wilson down is
• 44:50
  Speaker 15: a video that was shot by these protesters who showed
• 44:53
  Speaker 15: up at this anti ice protest over the weekend in Brooklyn.
• 44:56
  Speaker 15: My suggestion is these people probably don't like the cops too.
• 44:59
  Speaker 15: They don't like they probably don't like the NYPD cops.
• 45:02
  Speaker 15: So we're only seeing the portion of the video where
• 45:04
  Speaker 15: Captain Wilson said, they're disparaging things about Mayor Momdanian Democrats.
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: Is there more to the video?
• 45:09
  Speaker 15: What was what were they saying to this police officer before?
• 45:13
  Speaker 15: What were they screaming at this guy in the moments
• 45:15
  Speaker 15: before they started to roll tape on their cell phone?
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: Well you see that, thank you for bringing that up,
• 45:20
  Speaker 4: you pig. You you know you you probably love Israel?
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: And who knows what they was saying. These protesters are animals.
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: And again I also get frustrated when people act as
• 45:32
  Speaker 4: if they're all paid. They're not all paid. They're not
• 45:35
  Speaker 4: a lot of these events. Yes they're organized, organized by
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: the George Sorows Muslim Brotherhood Cares of the world, Yes
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: they are. But that's not the issue. I worry less
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: about the people that paper this stuff. My issue is
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: the tons and tons of New Yorkers and Americans who
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: have nothing going on in their lives. I mean nothing,
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: young people with no future that can't wait, they can't
• 46:05
  Speaker 4: wait to latch onto something, and they're not getting paid.
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: They are doing this because they've got nothing else. Those
• 46:13
  Speaker 4: are the ones that scare the hell out of me.
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: Does that make sense? Know? Yeah, And there's plenty of those.
• 46:18
  Speaker 15: It's the majority of these people are the people showed
• 46:21
  Speaker 15: up in Brooklyn on the World Week and they weren't
• 46:23
  Speaker 15: getting paid.
• 46:24
  Speaker 4: And then you talked to smart people in the city. Oh,
• 46:26
  Speaker 4: it's all Peyton. No, it's not just not true. It's
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: not true. It's not true. So anyway, James Wilson, I
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: still maintain is a hero. Leave Jessica alone, there's nothing
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: she can do, and go about your business and be quiet.
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: That's it. What else we got? Did you see Rutgers University?
• 46:44
  Speaker 15: They were gonna have this graduation speaker who is anti
• 46:47
  Speaker 15: Israel pro Palestinian speak to engineering students at the graduation
• 46:51
  Speaker 15: on May fifteenth, and so he got approved even.
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: Though they knew that's what he was about.
• 46:55
  Speaker 15: But then they started looking through his social media posts
• 46:58
  Speaker 15: and he was just saying crazy things. One of the
• 47:01
  Speaker 15: things he put up on x is that the Israelis
• 47:03
  Speaker 15: are running dungeons where dogs are trained to sexually assault
• 47:07
  Speaker 15: prisoners come on. That was one of a number of posts.
• 47:10
  Speaker 15: So finally the people, the officials at Rutgers came to
• 47:13
  Speaker 15: their right mind and they said, no, this is not
• 47:15
  Speaker 15: the guy who should be speaking to students, and they
• 47:17
  Speaker 15: asked him yesterday.
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: I was having this conversation a couple of days ago.
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: Danielle was who the hell was I talking to? Something
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: about Cuney, something about Kingsboro Community College, and I was
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: talking specifically about our friend Jeff Blocks, who happens to
• 47:32
  Speaker 4: be a professor at k by the Bay. He's on
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: the show all the time. You know, he's on Box
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: News all the time. He's a big deal, big market.
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: So he went to the powers at be. You're talking
• 47:41
  Speaker 4: about Bookers, but he went to the powers that be
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: at Kingsborough Community College and said, hey, do you know
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: what most famous graduate is. I actually graduated from there.
• 47:50
  Speaker 4: I got my two years associate's degree. When they said no,
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: and he said, said, oh, yeah, of course, yeah, I shiit. Yeah,
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: Well don't you think it'll be really cool dying to
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: come back? He still loves Brooklyn. He wants to speak
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: at commencement and they will have no part of it.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: Why because I'm Jewish. That's it. I know I had
• 48:10
  Speaker 4: some bumps along the way in my career. We talked
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: about it last segment. That's not it. Kingsboro Community College,
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: These cuneity institutions will not allow me to come back
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: and speak. Yet. You know who did speak at Kingsboro.
• 48:23
  Speaker 4: Who's that? Linda Sawsare of course no, Well come on,
• 48:26
  Speaker 4: how could Kingsborough Community College any decent cuney person make
• 48:31
  Speaker 4: the argument that Linda saw Sore is a better person,
• 48:35
  Speaker 4: a better New Yorker and more equipped to speak at
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: commencement than I. How could they possibly do that?
• 48:41
  Speaker 15: You know, I could take that first forty five minutes
• 48:44
  Speaker 15: of the show he did today, and if you stood
• 48:45
  Speaker 15: up there and gave that speech to graduates, that'd be amazing.
• 48:50
  Speaker 15: Thank you, right, I mean you, And there's no politics
• 48:52
  Speaker 15: in there. You're just saying, hey, you know you're gonna
• 48:54
  Speaker 15: have times in your life where things go won't go
• 48:56
  Speaker 15: so well, maybe not as bad as what you went through,
• 48:58
  Speaker 15: but you can always rehab your I find your way out,
• 49:01
  Speaker 15: and here's my story. That would be great when you
• 49:03
  Speaker 15: don't even have to talk about politics in your speech.
• 49:06
  Speaker 15: Yet they just out, you know, outright cross off the
• 49:08
  Speaker 15: list because.
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: I guess they're afraid you're gonna talk politics again. So
• 49:12
  Speaker 4: I'm Jewish. That's it's a bigger one for me. But
• 49:14
  Speaker 4: I was saying that I appreciate that, and it was
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: cathartic for me those first thirty five minutes. Yes, sounded
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: like it. I enjoyed it. Yeah, what else I'm missing here?
• 49:21
  Speaker 15: Do you care about the Epstein note Jeffrey Epstein suicide note.
• 49:25
  Speaker 4: I get into trouble with this because of course I care.
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: I don't care about the Epstein suicide note because I
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: still feel he was murdered. I don't feel like he was,
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: you know, taken by the massade and having lunch right
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: now in Tel Aviv. That is beyond sublime and ridiculous.
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: And I don't believe that he killed himself. I believe
• 49:46
  Speaker 4: he was murdered. I don't really care about the manner
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: in which he died. I'm just glad he's dead. And
• 49:52
  Speaker 4: I care about the story, obviously, because any child taken
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: advantage of. If you know who I am, the father
• 49:59
  Speaker 4: that I am, and how I feel about children, you
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: know that it's the worst possible crime. Bottom line is,
• 50:07
  Speaker 4: pedophilia is the worst possible crime, and anybody who was
• 50:12
  Speaker 4: involved with that with Jeffrey Epstein should be prosecuted to
• 50:15
  Speaker 4: the fullest. That would include President Trump, but he didn't
• 50:19
  Speaker 4: do it, So stop talking about President Trump and stop
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: talking about me. I'm tired of being called a pedophile
• 50:26
  Speaker 4: myself fifty times a week on Twitter. Fifty times a
• 50:29
  Speaker 4: week on Twitter. I'm called the pedophile because I'm friends
• 50:32
  Speaker 4: with Trump and the left and even members on the right,
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: idiots like the Kentucky Senator Ran Paul or others. They
• 50:41
  Speaker 4: get back at Trump by doing this. So of course
• 50:44
  Speaker 4: I care about Epstein what he did, and I want
• 50:47
  Speaker 4: everybody prosecuted to the fullest. And I'm also frustrated that
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: no one has really been arrested. I am, I really am.
• 50:55
  Speaker 4: But when you take it to the level that both
• 50:58
  Speaker 4: sides have taken it, now everybody's a pedophile, that's when
• 51:02
  Speaker 4: you start to lose me. Is that a fair statement. Yeah?
• 51:06
  Speaker 15: Anybody they haul in, haul anybody before this committee in Congress,
• 51:10
  Speaker 15: and the assumption right away, it's stamped on their forehead
• 51:13
  Speaker 15: that they're guilty of some sort of crime, and now
• 51:14
  Speaker 15: they have to talk their way out of it and
• 51:16
  Speaker 15: say no, I knew Jeffrey Epstein. I did business with them.
• 51:19
  Speaker 15: Maybe I visited his island with my family. There were
• 51:21
  Speaker 15: people who visited the island with the family or showitz
• 51:24
  Speaker 15: did that, and they said I didn't do anything wrong.
• 51:25
  Speaker 4: I just knew he was a guy I knew, Yeah,
• 51:27
  Speaker 4: you know.
• 51:28
  Speaker 15: I mean, by the way, there's also people who were
• 51:31
  Speaker 15: doing stuff that was wrong, and there are the people
• 51:32
  Speaker 15: who should be arrested and throw behind bars.
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: And no argument from me, no argument for me. But
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: what happens is you take a story that should really
• 51:42
  Speaker 4: interest everybody and everyone should care, and you make it
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: into such a witch hunt that rational people are like,
• 51:48
  Speaker 4: I'm done with this. I'm done with it. And for
• 51:51
  Speaker 4: people that don't understand that, maybe you should go back
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: and read your own tweets or your own Facebook posts
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: or your own Instagram posts, because you've done it, not me,
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: you've done it. You've taken a story which should be
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: important and turned it into such a stupid witch hunt
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: that normal rational people can't handle.
• 52:09
  Speaker 14: It anymore, and something that they lean on presumption of
• 52:13
  Speaker 14: innocence is thrown out the door.
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: Oh it's gone gone, Because.
• 52:16
  Speaker 14: That's what they would say about Luigi MANGIONI everything he's
• 52:22
  Speaker 14: in his No, he's no, that's not its second the
• 52:25
  Speaker 14: second you say it, you're guilty. Yeah, of course, there's no.
• 52:29
  Speaker 14: Of course, it's pick and choose. Its hypocrisy.
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: That's basically pick your poison. What else forgotten on me?
• 52:38
  Speaker 15: Then you have this hunt of virus that's everybody's freaking
• 52:41
  Speaker 15: out of it is there's the one on the boats. Yes,
• 52:42
  Speaker 15: this is this cruise ship that's in the waters off
• 52:45
  Speaker 15: West Africa. It's a Dutch cruise ship that's been hit
• 52:48
  Speaker 15: with this hunt of virus outbreak. There's only really two
• 52:51
  Speaker 15: ways to get it. One is from the urine and
• 52:55
  Speaker 15: droppings of rodents, and and it's deadly by the way.
• 52:58
  Speaker 4: About yes, oh god, what small grotesque than rat duty?
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: Nothing nothing more natural? Maybe alex duty. I don't know.
• 53:06
  Speaker 14: It wasn't in that restaurant you worked at, right.
• 53:09
  Speaker 4: No, No, we didn't have rats. Funny you say that,
• 53:12
  Speaker 4: because every fine restaurant in New York has rats. I
• 53:16
  Speaker 4: know you don't want to hear it, folks. Okay, they
• 53:17
  Speaker 4: got roaches, they got rats. It is what it is.
• 53:20
  Speaker 4: It's what New York is. It's not the restaurant food
• 53:23
  Speaker 4: everywhere food everywhere, garbage bags that sit outside in the street,
• 53:26
  Speaker 4: no matter how hard my sanitation guys work. And I
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: love all you guys. I love all you guys. But
• 53:32
  Speaker 4: in Florida they don't have the same issue with the rats.
• 53:34
  Speaker 4: So no, I didn't have any rat issues at Ellen
• 53:37
  Speaker 4: and Seafood other than the retired mob guys who moved
• 53:41
  Speaker 4: to Boca. And there's some rats there, a lot of
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: big rats, but no I gotta rop them something big.
• 53:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, a lot of.
• 53:54
  Speaker 4: Live ones.
• 53:57
  Speaker 14: That you want.
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: There.
• 54:02
  Speaker 4: They could be bad ONMBRE, that's all right.
• 54:13
  Speaker 15: Uh this ship, by the way, nobody wants to bring
• 54:15
  Speaker 15: the ship into port because they they're worried that the
• 54:18
  Speaker 15: hunt of virus has been transferred person to persons. Maybe
• 54:21
  Speaker 15: the hunter virus, the hunt of virus like Hunter Biden
• 54:24
  Speaker 15: kind of like that.
• 54:25
  Speaker 4: It's hunt of virus, Hunt of virus. How do you
• 54:27
  Speaker 4: spell it? H A N T A virus? Hunt of virus?
• 54:31
  Speaker 4: And what is hunt to come from?
• 54:32
  Speaker 15: What's the no idea? But three people are dead. Now
• 54:37
  Speaker 15: you have one hundred and forty people still on the ship.
• 54:39
  Speaker 15: They can't come out of their rooms because they're worried
• 54:41
  Speaker 15: to you, because it is deadly forty or fifty percent
• 54:44
  Speaker 15: of the time if you get this thing. So now
• 54:47
  Speaker 15: it's off to the Canary Islands and they're trying to
• 54:49
  Speaker 15: figure out where they're going to anchor so everybody can
• 54:51
  Speaker 15: get off the ship.
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: You know, years ago these boats had duty coming up
• 54:54
  Speaker 4: and down the walls. You remember that. Yeah, and then
• 54:57
  Speaker 4: they had Legionnaire's disease. So my wife hats cruise. She
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: hates it. I love it. I love it. On our
• 55:03
  Speaker 4: honeymoon thirty four years ago, we did it. Took a
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: cruise to Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Saint Thomas, Saint Martin, I
• 55:12
  Speaker 4: forget where else, I don't know, but I loved it.
• 55:14
  Speaker 4: And I've been on many cruises in my lifetime, you know,
• 55:17
  Speaker 4: And I like the fact that you port and you
• 55:19
  Speaker 4: go to these nice cities and spend the day. But
• 55:21
  Speaker 4: I love the part that you go back on the
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: boat and you got food and casinos and fun stuff.
• 55:26
  Speaker 4: I love a cruise. She hates it. And then when
• 55:29
  Speaker 4: these stories pop up, and they pop up way too often,
• 55:33
  Speaker 4: way too often, like deadly diseases on boats all the time,
• 55:38
  Speaker 4: She's gonna end up being right, Like she wouldn't even
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: want to eat the food at the time, because she
• 55:42
  Speaker 4: would see like these fat, nasty Americans running to the
• 55:47
  Speaker 4: buffet at like midnight and everybody touching this stuff. Now
• 55:50
  Speaker 4: she's like, this can't be fresh. So she hates it
• 55:53
  Speaker 4: and I can't go anymore. Now you're making it even
• 55:56
  Speaker 4: worry for me. So thank you well.
• 55:57
  Speaker 15: And then you think about like just they turn these
• 55:59
  Speaker 15: things around them twenty four hours, so like you get
• 56:01
  Speaker 15: off and then twenty four hours later, like another ten
• 56:04
  Speaker 15: thousand people on the ship.
• 56:05
  Speaker 4: There's no way they could clean this. There's no there's
• 56:07

• 56:57
  Speaker 4: or fifty whatever it was. Continuing that squeak of doubled
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: it wins, including wins by forty and fifty, and the
• 57:02
  Speaker 4: line went down. But even the line went down now
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: it went back up to ten and a half when
• 57:07
  Speaker 4: you found out yesterday that Joel mb By not play
• 57:10
  Speaker 4: again this postseason. Right, but initially the line went from
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: seven and a half to six and a half because
• 57:14
  Speaker 4: of public felt that the seventy six was even with
• 57:18
  Speaker 4: them beat or not would come back and play a
• 57:20
  Speaker 4: better game, and they did so. Initially that first line
• 57:23
  Speaker 4: the Knicks would not have covered. They did not cover,
• 57:25
  Speaker 4: of course, at ten and a half points spread either,
• 57:27

• 59:43
  Speaker 13: good with Sid school Sid. He's nuts, He's good. I
• 59:45
  Speaker 13: don't sit a low.
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: Time I got.
• 59:47
  Speaker 13: I got only good things to say about Sid with
• 59:49
  Speaker 13: my experience with Sid. But when you were working with Sid,
• 59:52
  Speaker 13: I mean you didn't You didn't know if he was
• 59:53
  Speaker 13: showing up every day, right, Sid was at the lowest
• 59:55
  Speaker 13: point kind of right.
• 59:57
  Speaker 12: In the beginning, he was fine.
• 59:58
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 59:59
  Speaker 12: Sid had his demons, There's no doubt about it. And
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 12: I give him credit because it seems like he's conquered
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 12: them all. Now he's he's really doing a great job
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 12: on ABC. I know where he is killing. I said,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 12: I'm on with him a lot, which I appreciate him
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 12: having me on, you know, uh yeah, I mean the
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 12: first it actually happened twice. First he left, I forget well,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 12: I don't want to get into what the hold of
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 12: details were. But you told me Sid's in reab and
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 12: I did it alone for I don't know a number
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 12: of months.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 4: I don't even remember that.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 12: Okay, okay, yeah, Sid comes back and now we're together again,
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 12: and I'll give you the story and I'll never forget it.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 12: So it's opening day of the NFL season. I believe
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 12: it was one of the years when the Jets did
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 12: not make the playoffs. On the Herman Edwards so I.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 4: Think it was. It must have been a three. I
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 4: was gonna say two thousand and three. Yep.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 12: And it was two thousand and three, and it's opening
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 12: day and I'm getting ready to watch the Jets. I
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 12: think they were playing in the Chiefs that day or whatever.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 12: And Sid was supposed to be doing the Giant pregame
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 12: show right up in the Metalleans. Well, Sid doesn't show up. Yeah,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 12: all right, and come to you know, they would and
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 12: again I don't want to get.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 4: Into it all. Weren't they in Atlantic City?
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 12: They were in Atlantic City, they were down here. I
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 12: guess Lepp was down here too, And I guess Sid
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 12: kind of went off.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 4: The rails in Atlantic City.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 12: He kind of went back to you know, the kind
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 12: of crap he was going and all, you know, and
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 12: Sid would tell you you know, oh yeah, I get
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 12: a call from Leapt it's about twelve thirty. I'm getting
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 12: ready for the jet game, one o'clock Jet Game right
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 12: opening day September. I get a call. I get a
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 12: call from Lept. He goes, it's all.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 4: The between God and Danielle and other forces in my
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 4: life and quite family, my talent here. I am at
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 4: the very very top of our chain in this radio business.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 4: But that was my former partner, Joe Bningo, who's now
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 4: on this show every week, who's not just a great
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 4: talk show host, but a dear loyal friend. And you
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 4: heard that he was on with a guy named Brandon Tilney.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 4: I like Brandon to a lot. Brandon most recently did
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 4: the midday show at w up in with Salakata Craig
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 4: Carton came back, the fan went to Evan and Tiki.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 4: So Brandon is doing his own podcast now and it's
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 4: very good. I recommend you guys check it out. It's
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 4: called bet Unleashed and Brandon's a real nice guy. And
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 4: at one point me, Brandon and Beningo all at the
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 4: same agent, Mark Lofzelter. But what struck me when somebody
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 4: sent me Kevinkanessa my boy NeSSI when Kevin Coanessa sent
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 4: me that audio yesterday. What struck me was how Beningo
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 4: handled it. And what I mean by that is Brandon
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 4: really wanted the gory details, which Bill o'rodley got from
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 4: me last week. It's one thing to get it from me,
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: and I voluntarily did it made for a great podcast.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 4: But you can tell my buddy Joe was uncomfortable, didn't
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 4: want to talk about it. Another dog was really nice,
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 4: I really did. That's what struck me was Beningo was listen.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 4: He's doing great now. I'm on his show all the time.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 4: The guy's at the top of the world, and I
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 4: don't want to get into it. So I just want
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 4: to tell you, Joseph that I thought the way you
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 4: handled that was really classy. Showed your loyalty to me
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 4: as a dear friend of almost twenty five years, and
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 4: I appreciated it. Thank you very much.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 18: Oh, you know I love you, Bro, You know that,
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 18: nothing but love. Yeah, I really wish that, you know,
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 18: it didn't work out for all those years, because we
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 18: would have had it, We would have had a kicking show.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 18: You know. I loved working with Evan, it was great. Yeah.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 18: I always say, if you would and I would have
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 18: stayed together, you know, I would have been like the
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 18: straight man to you, and that would have Now you're
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 18: really talking about something, you know what I mean if
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 18: I'm playing the straight man to you. So unfortunately didn't
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 18: all didn't go down that way. But we're all thrilled
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 18: that you're kicking ass now, Bro, God.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 4: Blessed, and you're part of this on this show every
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 4: week and you're still kicking ass. And yeah, a lot
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 4: of people what he did, think that Joe and Sid
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 4: Sid and Joe would be the next Mike and the
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 4: Mad Dog. But you know, Joseph, as I'm getting older
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 4: and a lot of people that I love and respect,
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 4: friends and people I know, oh, we're dying, they're dying.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 4: We lost john Stoning this week. The more I come
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 4: to the realization I want to get to, you know,
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 4: philosophical and to cliche in this conversation, But the more
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 4: I'm coming to the realization that God has a plan,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 4: and unfortunately it didn't work out well for us, because
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 4: we could have been great, and we were great for
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 4: two years. We were great. But here we are twenty
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 4: plus years later, still best of friends, and you're still
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 4: killing it and I'm doing well. And I guess this
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 4: was God's plan.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 18: Right, I guess, so, you know, is God's plan?
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 4: So is God's plan to make sure that the Knickerbockers
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 4: get back to the NBA boinals this year?
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 18: Boy, I tell you, man, you know I am. I
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 18: am excited for his team. I got a concern, though,
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 18: and I fully expect that. Look right now, they're clearly
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 18: the best team in the Eastern Conference. There's no doubt
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 18: about it. I do not see the Detroit Pistons that
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 18: the Cleveland Cavilies. But what happened last night that scares
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 18: me is ogn Andobi went down with an injury. Now
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 18: I still don't know exactly what the deal is with him.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 18: I've heard watch in the postgame show. I've heard it
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 18: might be a hamstring something like that, but he's been on.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 18: I mean, he's the modern day Dave de Busher for
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 18: this team. I mean, he's been unbelievable both ends of
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 18: the floor. He had a big game again last night,
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 18: and that concerns me. I have to say, it really doesn't, because.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 4: You'll need him to get by Detroit, who should be Cleveland.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 4: I don't know, you know, we'll see. The other lines
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 4: in those games are somewhere between two and four. So
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 4: Vegas seems to think that Cleveland will be competitive even
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 4: on the road, although Detroit did win by double digits
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 4: in Game one. But they'll need him in that next round.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 4: And you know, you look at the job, for example,
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 4: that auj did for Toronto and that seven game loss
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 4: to Cleveland in Round one, and quickly those guys are
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 4: still very good players. But I think you'd agree that
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 4: this turned out to be a great trade for the Knicks.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 18: Look, Leon Rose has done a spectacular job. You know,
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 18: you'd never see the guy. He really took the Knicks
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 18: out of the twenty year abiss that they were in,
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 18: and he made every movie he's made, I mean, entire
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 18: starting lineups. It is not homegrown Nicks. I mean eines
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 18: Jalen Brunston to a free agent contract turns out to
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 18: be one of the great free agent contracts and history
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 18: of sports. Forget about justin New York. He makes the
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 18: jog ananob trayed like you said, for Barrett, and quickly
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 18: he makes the call Anthony Towns trade for it. I
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 18: love d'Arte di Vicenzo and and Randall and look out
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 18: that's turning out. He steals Josh Hart from Portland. You know,
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 18: he makes the Michale Bridges trading.
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 4: That's the one. That's the one. Yeah, that's the one
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: that Steve Smith.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 18: Know, bro, Look how he's played the last night. Well,
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 18: he was huge again last night. Yes, I got the
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 18: defense on Maxi that he played. Not to mention he
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 18: scored eighteen points and hit a monster basket with the
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 18: knicks up, you know, clinging to a four point lead
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 18: in the closing minutes of the game last night, a
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 18: huge shot to put him up six. You know, you
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 18: gotta look at that him. Leon Rose has done a
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 18: magnificent job with this team.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 4: Oh yeahs. And you know I'm gonna have Stephen A.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 4: Smith on this show in about an hour. He's a
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 4: regular now. He likes to come on and talk politics,
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 4: so he said, do me a favorite yet, Christopher mad
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 4: Dog Russo won yesterday, which I did, and Doggie and
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 4: I had a lot of fun talking about my new Yankees.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 4: But I said, I only want to talk politics when
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 4: I come home with you. I enjoyed doing that like
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 4: you do occasionally. I said, Okay, fine, Steve, but we'll
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 4: still talk about the Knicks. He hates the British trade
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 4: because of all the draft choices. But you're right, he's
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 4: been great the last couple of games. And if Og
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 4: turns out to be a little more seriously injured, then
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 4: we know at this point then McHale will even be
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 4: more important. So you believe the nicker Bockers are on
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 4: the way to the Eastern Conference finals.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 18: Oh yeah, I think they look bro. If Anon Obi's healthy,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 18: there's no reason they shouldn't win the championship. I mean,
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 18: let's be real, I mean, there's no reason.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 4: There is a reason it's called Oklahoma City.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 18: Okay, but I mean, you know, everybody goes nuts about
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 18: you know, I don't know, Oklahoma City is tremendous. Okay,
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 18: they're great. I don't know if they did Bill Russell
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 18: Celtics with a Michael Jordan Bowles, you know what I mean.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 18: I don't know about that or the Magic Johnson Kareem
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 18: Abdul Jabal Lakers. I have not sold on that yet. Okay,
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 18: So I'll take I look at this starting five that
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 18: the Knicks have right now. Okay, And you know me,
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 18: I've I've been in Knick fan since nineteen sixty two.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 18: I saw Richie Garren and Johnny Green play. People don't
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 18: even know what these people are. Okay, all right, this
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 18: is how far back I go to the old garden.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 18: My father used to take me to the double heads
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 18: that the NBA believe it or not, NBA double headed.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 18: You see the Lakers Celtics in Game one, and then
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 18: the Knicks playing whoever in the next game. So I
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 18: go way way back with this team. Okay, this is
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 18: the best starting lineup I've seen the Knicks have since
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 18: the championship teams I mean, Patrick doing, you know, and
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 18: we love those teams and they gave us a lot,
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 18: give us a lot of aggravation, a lot of pain too.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 18: But you know they went to the finals a couple
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 18: of times. Patrick Ewing never had the starting lineup. This
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 18: team hasn't got no.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 4: Not even close, I mean close. You had guys on
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 4: those teams that you loved. You loved Charles Oakley, you
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 4: loved Anthony Mason, and John Stark's at his moments where
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 4: he was a legitimate superstar, but he was not really
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 4: a superstar. I mean you have you could make the argument,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 4: as you said, got to the NBA Finals twice, losing
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 4: in ninety four of course, to the Rockets, in ninety
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 4: nine to San Antonio, that past Ewing never really played
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 4: along one all star, not one.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 18: No, and this team is guy. I mean, you got
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 18: how many guys can kill you on his team?
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 7: Bro?
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 18: I mean now you know, you look at this team,
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 18: you can get beaten a lot of different ways. And
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 18: then you got to look at the bench too. I
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 18: mean all you know, they got a pretty good bench.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 18: You look at McBride, you look at Clarkson, you know,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 18: obviously Mitchell Robinson. You know, I thought it was funny
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 18: last night Mitch didn't play last night. To me, it
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 18: was a bigger deal because Karl Anthony Towns, who gets
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 18: no breaks from the officials at all, by the way,
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 18: got in early foul trouble and there's no Mitchell Robinson.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 18: And I thought Mitchell Robinson being out was a bigger
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 18: deal last night than him beat being out for Philadelphia,
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 18: to be very honest about it. And you know, but
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 18: you look at that, you look at the bench, you
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 18: know Alvarado, you know these guys. They got a deep team,
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 18: and they got a good team. They could win the championship.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 18: Said wow, and I keep saying this and again, we
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 18: need and it'll be healthy. But if they don't win that,
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 18: when did they win? And said, you tell me, if
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 18: they don't win a title this year, this team, when
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 18: the hell are theay winning one?
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 4: That's a fair question. That's a fair question of the
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 4: folks that don't know My dear friend Joe b Ningo.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 4: For him to say my team can win a championship
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 4: would almost be like Osama bin Laden going to a
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 4: bar Mitzvah, I swear to God, maybe going to a
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 4: bar even worse. You're right, tell me about this Met team.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 4: You know, of course I've switched allegiances. I was back
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 4: at Yankee Stadium two nights ago. But look, the Mets
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 4: have won four out of five. They're playing much better baseball.
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 4: Now the team's a beat in that stretch are the
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 4: La Angels and the Colorado Rockies. The Rockies maybe the
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 4: worst team in baseball. But are you feeling like this
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 4: met team is starting to turn a corner or just
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 4: beating bad competition?
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 18: Well, look, you know, you know what I like said,
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 18: I don't know where they are. There's still eight games
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 18: under five hundred. I don't expect them to turn it
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 18: around and be, you know, make this big run to
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 18: the playoffs by any means. But here was what I'm
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 18: encouraged by. Is this kid costing bench who all of
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 18: a sudden is starting to hit. You got a couple
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 18: of big hits again last night, he had a home
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 18: run the other day. He's played out standing defense. I'm
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 18: really getting excited, you know, watching him play. Ventos has
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 18: started to hit a little bit. You got a big
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 18: game from Marcus Simion last night. He went four to four,
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 18: hit a two run home You know, I mean, look,
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 18: they got to be better than the way that they've played.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 18: I mean, do I expect this team to be a
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 18: playoff team? I don't not at all. But you know,
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 18: at least you like the way they're playing, Like you said,
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 18: they won four out of five, three in a row.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 18: Now on this road trip. You know, Colorado killed them
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 18: last week at City. You know that double aheaded squad
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 18: one running in the two games doubleheader. Yeah, so they're
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 18: getting better. But I'm not I'm not getting I'm not
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 18: getting crazy. But it's nice to see. I always love
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 18: this CID to see the homegrown guys getting it done,
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 18: and I love what I see from Benge. And I
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 18: don't know if Bientos is ever going to really become
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 18: a top hitter for this team. I don't know. He's
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 18: got his stretches leve late, but I don't know about that.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 18: But at least it's nice to see them playing competitive
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 18: baseball games.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 4: Sixty seconds. You mentioned Simeon and of course he came
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 4: to the Mets via the trade for Brandon Neimo, and
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 4: I wana be the Yankees and playing Texas the last
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 4: two days. So Brandon Nimo is back in the Bronx,
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 4: and I think Steve Cohen's gonna go see him if
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 4: he hasn't been there already in the Bronx, because he
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 4: still loves him. But it's it's interesting that here's Nimo
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 4: back in town and the Yankees. Look, they're not gonna
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 4: win every game. They finally lost yesterday. I didn't like
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 4: that matchup warn against the Bialde Texas had the better
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 4: pitching matchup today, Blackburn on the mounds. Still not one
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 4: of the Yankee greats. But we are not far away
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 4: at this point, not far away from the Yankees throwing
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 4: out four game series. Cole Freed, Schlittler and Ron Don
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 4: Who the hell's going to beat that team?
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 18: No, I think they're clearly the best team in the
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 18: American League. I mean, I mean, what is there what's
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 18: in the American League right now beside the Yankees. I
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 18: think they clearly are. There's no doubt about it. That
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 18: rotation with the is going to be off the charts.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 18: These guys are all a healthy, look, I mean, and
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 18: they Bob the Grom the other night. They had a
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 18: couple of home runs, a couple of bombs off of him. Uh,
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 18: you know, look, you're gonna he can't win every game.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 18: But they're clearly the best team, best team in baseball,
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 18: at least certainly in the American League. There's no question
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 18: about it. You know, it's funny everybody got on Brian Cashman.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 18: Yankees didn't do anything. All they did was bring back
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 18: Bell and Jill.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 4: They didn't really have.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 18: To do too much, you know what I mean.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 4: It's true.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 18: You know, they got a hell of a team, many Yankees.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 18: I fully expect them. Look, you never known the playoffs.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 18: Obviously they're gonna be in the playoffs. You never know
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 18: own the playoffs. But I fully expect them to see
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 18: them in a World Series.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 4: I do totally agree. And that's how to get healthy.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 4: And even Chris Russo, who hates the Yankees, hate them,
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 4: maybe even more than you, said on this show yesterday
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 4: that he thinks if this Yankee team stays healthy, they
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 4: can beat the Dodgers.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 18: Yeah, why not? I look, I mean, look, I mean
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 18: the Dodgers that do man, you know they're gonna win
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 18: three in a row. I mean, I guess they could.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 18: But yeah, I give the Yankees a real shot to
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 18: win it all. You know, I really do it, and
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 18: I look, I hope they do, only for so Aaron
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 18: Judge can get that, you know, to get that off
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 18: his back. Yeah, and finally, because he's one of the
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 18: all time great oh god, you all time great players. Yeah,
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 18: but he needs that championship, he does.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 7: You know what I mean.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 4: So he did the home run every day, another one yesterday,
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 4: number fifteen, and he does need that championship, especially when
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 4: you play for a Yankee team that's won twenty seven.
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 4: So all the way out, I want to thank you again.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 4: Your appearance on Brandon Tierney was great. I watched the
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 4: whole thing. It was great. But the way you handled
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 4: my situation was professional, it was loving. And I love
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 4: you the pieces, Joe Bningo. I love the fact you're
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 4: on this show every week. I love you more as
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 4: a person. Thank you so much.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 18: Said you know, I love you. God bless you and
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 18: the family and as I said, the brand. And I
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 18: really appreciate you giving me the opportunity to come on
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 18: your great show.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 3: I really do.
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 4: You are great too. Thank you so much. On my
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 4: best to tellry too, your wife is so lovely. She's
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 4: the ridic too. That's my dear friend, Joe Berningo Saturday
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 4: mornings every week on wfa N and now we weekly contributed.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 4: He's so proud to have him right here on Sitting
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 4: Friends in the Morning, Sit and.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 2: Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 4: On the way out, the big question is you know
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 4: We've got the Belmont in Saratoga this year as they
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 4: rebuild the track. It's back at the Bellmont next year.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 4: And there's nothing more exciting, as you know, Shari, than
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 4: having a chance at a horse out winning the Triple Crown.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 4: But we've seen examples or a horse and win the
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 4: Kentucky Derby and not race in the Peakness a couple
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 4: of weeks later. Everybody wants to know will Golden Tempo
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 4: race in two weeks.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 19: Well, at Golden Tempo, decide that, you know, it's kind
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 19: of hard. He needs every bit of distance as shown
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 19: in the race to win out a mile and a quarter,
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 19: and we have to put the horse first. So we're
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 19: going to see how he comes out of the race,
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 19: see how he's training, how his energy is, and you know,
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 19: and then we'll talk about whether we want.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 6: To take the chance or not.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 19: You know, he's just unique in the fact that he
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 19: is a true classic distance horse that needs all the
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 19: ground and shortening up in the Preakness will definitely be
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 19: a key part of.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 3: That discussion on whether we do enter and run on
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 3: the pretense and done one.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 4: Usually would you make that call over the next week?
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: I guess yeah.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 19: So typically, our horses get about a week of easy
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 19: training and kind of towards the end of that week
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 19: we'll start talking, you know, we'll try to make a decision.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 4: Golden Temple won the Kentucky Derby. Shari Duvau became the
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 4: first female trainer ever to train or horse to Kentucky
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 4: Derby win. And I asked her that question at the
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 4: very end of a very good fifteen minute conversation. We
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 4: always want to see a triple crown potential, and she
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 4: made it sound like this is a horse that likes
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 4: to run distance a mile and a quarter of the
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 4: Kentucky Derby. So during the conversation and the reason why
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 4: I asked her at the very end that question was
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 4: she made it sounded like the horse was not going
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 4: to run. And we found out yesterday that the horse
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 4: is not going to run. So I did speak to
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 4: my dear friend Vinie Viola, who of course owns Golden Tempo,
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 4: also owns the two time raining Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 4: Vinny one of my best buddies. That's not an exaggeration.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 4: We speak a lot, a lot of times a week,
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 4: and he told me yesterday nope, you will see Golden
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 4: tempo again in the Belmont, not in the Preakness. So
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 4: there will be no triple Crown winner in twenty twenty
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 4: six because the Kentucky Derby winner will not race in
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 4: the Preakness. We'll take a short break Sid and.
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 2: Friends in the morning on the Red Apple podcast Network.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 20: I got to ask you, what is your hope for
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 20: America at a time such as this.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 21: My hope for America, and my hope for America is
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 21: what it's always been.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 5: I think it's the hope I hope we all share.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 21: We want it to continue to be the place where
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 21: anyone from anywhere can achieve anything.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 5: Where you're not limited by.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 21: The circumstances of your birth, by the color of your skin,
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 21: by your ethnicity.
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 5: But frankly, it's a place where you.
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 21: Are able to overcome challenges and achieve your full potential.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 21: I think that should be the goal of every country
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 21: in the world. But I think in the US we're
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 21: not perfect. Our history is not one of perfection, but
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 21: it's still better than anybody else's history.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 5: Now, ours is a story of perpetual improvement.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 21: Each generation has left the next generation of Americans freer
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 21: or prosperous, safer, and that is our goal as well.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 21: And as we come upon this two hundred and fifty
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 21: year anniversary, I think we have a lot to learn
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 21: and be proud of in our history. It is one
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 21: of perpetual and continuous improvement, where each generation has done
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 21: its part to bring us closer to fulfilling the vision
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 21: that the founders of this country had upon its founding.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 4: The governor at the time a guy named Charlie Christ
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 4: down in Florida when I held a debate on my
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 4: Sports Dog show at Frank's Ocean Club on the beach
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 4: in Fort Lauderdale, and a young Marco Rubio, whose wife,
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 4: mind you, was a Miami dopin cheerleader. He loves Miamis sports,
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 4: he loves to heat, came on my show. We had
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 4: a three way debate live on the air. I was
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 4: already doing politics. This was twenty ten, though, and he
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 4: went on to win, of course, and then you guys
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 4: remember twenty eleven Osama bin Laden gets taken out by
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 4: our buddy. He's been on this show many many times.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 4: O'Neill and Marco Rubio at the time a senator from
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 4: the state of Florida. I played it on this show.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 4: He called in, called into my sports talk show, wasn't
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 4: even booked, just to say, hey, Sid, I got good news.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 4: We got bin Laden. Remember I played that tape home
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 4: about amazing that was I do remember that. Well, yeah,
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 4: so he man, he's got to be president next. That's it.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 4: Get rid of this JD.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 3: Vans.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 4: He's a clown looking very presidential. He does, he looks it,
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 4: he sounds it. You know, Trump is all about Rubio
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 4: these days. I never see Trump advance. Never we're talking
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 4: about him. He's braud great, mister fraud great everywhere with Rubio.
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 4: Rubio needs to be the next president. But well, I
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 4: ask my young friend, looking handsome as always this morning
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 4: in his dorm room at Auburn University with three American
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 4: flags behind him, a regular here on our show on WABC,
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 4: the Great Brylan Hollyhead, and I would imagine Brilin you
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 4: will agree Rubio needs to be on next president after
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 4: Donald Trump. And you must have loved what he said there.
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 22: We said good morning to your happy Thursday. You took
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 22: me back my friends, it's all. It was fun to
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 22: start the morning with you. You know, I'll definitely say
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 22: I agree I think that what a crazy novel concept
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 22: to have a future presidential contender painting a picture of hope,
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 22: not painting a doom and glue message, not telling us
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 22: that we should feel guilty for America, but coming behind
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 22: the podium and off the cup, just laying out this
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 22: case for America two hundre and fiftyeth year. Then we
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 22: should be grateful for the country we have. Everywhere imagination
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 22: looks around, whether it's in a classroom, it's on social
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 22: media and politics, we're told about how bad America is,
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 22: how guilty we should feel for our past and our ancestors.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 22: And Marco just let it out, Hey, guys, like we
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 22: should actually be proud. We have a lot to be
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 22: proud of, and we worked for it. We're not perfect,
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 22: We've never claimed to be. I think that's a winning message,
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 22: and I think that's certainly a message that would win
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 22: in twenty eight because gen Z wants hope. We just
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 22: want some American exceptionalism back. And if President Trump ran
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 22: on make America talk again, Marco could run on making
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 22: America proud again.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean? The choke a couple of
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 4: times on the show, it's a Greg Kelly favorite that
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 4: the Iran war has hit the Nancy Got Three stage,
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 4: which is an unfortunate joke, because God bless Nancy got Three,
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 4: That poor beautiful lady. She's been dead somewhere up for
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 4: a long time. But it got to the point where
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 4: America stopped caring. Unfortunately for Savannah, they just did. And
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 4: I think we're there with the Iran You know, I
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 4: want us to win, and I'm all for what President
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 4: Trump did, but you know, you went to two months
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 4: now and every day they're looking at this proposal, We're
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 4: looking at that proposal, We're extending this, We're we're not
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 4: going to do this. We are going to do that.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 4: And I love President Trump. I adore them. Just yesterday
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 4: was telling Bruce Blakeman how great I am in the
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 4: meaning they had in the Oval Office. So I don't
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 4: criticize the President almost never, okay, But I believe America
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 4: has had just about enough of the Iran conversation. So
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 4: for America, if I'm right, If I'm right, and America
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 4: feels that way, kids like you in college, you really
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 4: got to be over this, yes or no? Yeah, oh easily.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 22: I think the reason we elected President trumpets we wanted
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 22: somebody we could trust and have certainty in, and there's
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 22: been a little bit of uncertainty lately. And I'm not
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 22: blaming it on the President. It's the situation in the
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 22: Middle East. But it's about time to wrap things up
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 22: and bring our boys home and you know, make sure
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 22: that we're not on the front lines of the proxy war,
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 22: with the front lines of the potential to be drafted
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 22: to go to the Middle East. It's kind of like
• 1:23:02
  Speaker 22: the limbo that our generation is in. Besides paying the
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 22: high gas taxes by the plant, seeing the horrible pictures
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 22: that are coming out of the Middle East that are
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 22: like frightening on social media, there's also that fear of
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 22: if something were to escalate, Hey, we're the first ones
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 22: to be sent over there, and that's not necessarily the
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 22: best way to convince young people to also come out
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 22: and vote for us in November. So think if we
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 22: clean this up, if we proved we were able to
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 22: wipe off the terrace, we're able to bring freedom from
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 22: the lease, We're able to bring down gas prices, We're
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 22: able to make America energy independent. That's when the President
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 22: can come to college campuses and the fall and say
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 22: I told you it would be short.
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 4: It was short.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 22: We're out and here's where prices are down. But he's
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 22: got to do it quick. There's a window here where
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 22: he has a few more weeks to finish all this
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 22: up and bring those prices down, because at some point
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 22: he's got to look to gen Z and said, I
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 22: told you costs would be easier than they were under Biden.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 22: Here's the proof of that. Because we can't do what
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 22: Biden did. Biden said, you know, he dug his head
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 22: in the sand and he said.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 4: What is inflation?
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 22: What do you mean gas prices are high? You're crazy,
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 22: it's all on your head. No, no, No, said, you know
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 22: prices are high. Knows what they're seeing. They're not gonna,
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 22: you know, not believe their lion eyes. They need a
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 22: president to look at them and say, I'm not going
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 22: to sugar credit. Prizes are high, but here's my plan
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 22: to bring them down. And he actually has to do it.
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 22: He has a laundry list of promises he's kept. Keep
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 22: this one and I'll earn our votes.
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I couldn't agree more. I have not arguments, necessarily,
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 4: but I have a lot of guests, a lot that
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 4: come on and say he's gonna win, We'll be fine,
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 4: and I go, yeah, but win, No, no, no, it's
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 4: not that easy. If he wins in August, it's too late.
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 4: If he wins in July, it's too late. I understand
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 4: every day now in this world is like six months.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 4: I get it. News changes all the time. But I
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 4: can tell you talking to Trump supporters like you, you're
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 4: nineteen years old. Well, my last guest, Joebningo, who's seventy two,
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 4: they are losing patience. And then don't we gain it overnight.
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 4: So it's not as easy as Brian kill Meat and
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 4: others when we win. No, no, if we are going
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 4: to win, and I'm not sure we have President Trump,
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 4: it needs to happen soon. You're right, there's a window
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 4: on this. We cannot just wait and wait and wait
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 4: till the president says, hey, we want it will kill
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 4: us in November.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 22: But right, and I think the big thought process here,
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 22: the perspective our party should I have. I've show this
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 22: the President's teamsons and Whiles is aware of this, that
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 22: we need to act like we're not entitled to the
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 22: youth vote.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 4: We need to earn it.
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 22: The Dems had a monopoly on my generations vote for decades,
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 22: basically from Bill Clinton until twenty twenty four. They owned
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 22: the youth vote because they walked in and act like
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 22: they were entitled to it every cycle, and that was
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 22: their acuus heal. That's the reason they lost it, because
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 22: they didn't earn it. They walked in, they ignored us,
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 22: They wagh free things and emotions in front of our
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 22: face and expected us to just fall online. About twenty
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 22: twenty four, thankfully, we smelt the roses.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 4: We woke up.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 22: We finally said those empty promises have never been fulfilled.
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 22: The Dems had cheated us, They've lied to us, They've
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 22: stilled from us. We're not going to trust them anymore.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 22: And we trusted President Trump. But in the in the midterms,
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 22: the geo, he has a chance to keep gen Z
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 22: and our big ten of a party for generations to come.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 4: We just can't walk in like we're entitled.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 22: We have to earn every single vote, and that means
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 22: to go into the campuses. I mean, the president does
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 22: what I do, speaking on campuses and laying out that
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 22: laundry list, earning it, not acting. Luck we're titled too,
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 22: you know, That's how that works it.
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 4: And Brilin I guess on a positive note for the President,
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 4: he had a big night in Indiana a couple of
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 4: nights ago. All those GOP incumbents they all lost and
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 4: all of them, I think, every single one of them
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 4: was on the opposite side of the redistricting issue with
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 4: President Trump. They all paid the price. So for what
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 4: it's worth, all five people that President Trump endorsed in
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 4: Indiana got the win. That doesn't necessarily mean, you know,
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 4: he also endorsed, for example, my guy in Jersey who
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 4: got his ass kicked by Mikey Muhammad, Cheryl, you know
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 4: Jack generally. So it doesn't mean that wherever he goes,
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 4: President Trump, his people are going to win. But certainly
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 4: a couple of nights ago in Indiana, that was a
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 4: great night for President Trump.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 7: It was.
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 22: And I love to see the black pillars on social
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 22: media come and act like the President's endorsements just meetingless
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 22: at this point, and then he can flex this muscle
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 22: on one night wipe out you know what, half the
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 22: Indiana Senate and like these minor races because they were important.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 22: People are calling this a purge, said, honestly, what it
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 22: is is accountability. We need more of it across the country.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 22: My generation has zero tolerance for rhinos. I've spoken to
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 22: you about this before, but I've spent the past few
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 22: months being on the campaign trail making sure that in
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 22: these primaries we are kicking out rhinos across this country
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 22: because honestly, you know this said better than anybody with
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 22: Republicans like we have, who needs Democrats. All we do
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 22: week week is fight our own side every time we
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 22: try to make some accomplishment. Who were the people stopping us,
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 22: these so called Republicans who really govern more like woke liberals.
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 22: And so if we kick them out, these same handful
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 22: of people that literally lost their jobs because they wanted
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 22: to protect two Democrat House seats, I wish them the
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 22: best of luck as they pack into retirement. And I
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 22: message to any other rhinos listening to sit in friends
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 22: this morning, go ahead and pack your bags that we're
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 22: coming for you because we have a proven tracker and
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 22: I expect you to have a smooth, graceful light.
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 4: So before we kick you out, ahha, Brilan Holly hand.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 4: So we love this kid, nineteen years old, brilliant does

• 1:28:16
  Speaker 4: can see him. You'll see these videos online later. He
• 1:28:19

• 1:28:21
  Speaker 4: of my head. I got hurt us a whole o
• 1:28:22

• 1:28:34
  Speaker 4: violent Holly hand. Right there. We'll take a break. A
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 4: lot more to come today. Stephen A. Smith that's going
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 4: to be here, Bill O'Reilly's going to be here, Emily Austin.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 2: podcast network all.
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 4: Time Hi Anti Semitic attack number in New York. And
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 4: it goes back to the scumbag, this prick who's the mayor,
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 4: This mom Donnie who I just can't stand. And they
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 4: keeps showing these pictures of in these videos of what
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 4: happened at Park East Synagogue a couple of nights ago.
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 4: That's my buddy Schneier's temple. The dad is ninety four
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 4: and ninety six. I forget author. He's a great rabbi
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 4: and a great guy. His son Mark is a great
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 4: rabbi in the Hamptons. It's a wonderful temple. Elizabeth Pipko
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 4: goes there, so does Johnny Daniels and many others. Anyway,
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 4: there was a bunch of filthy kaferro wearing anti Israel,
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 4: anti Jewish lowlives. You know, when I see somebody wearing
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 4: a kaffa in the street, I just want to punch
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 4: him across the face. I really do. I'm not encouraging violence.
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 4: I'm not telling anybody to do that, but my first
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 4: impulse is I want to punch you across the face.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 4: I really do. I want to knock the life right
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 4: out of you because you don't care. You're not from
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 4: some Palestinian descent. You're so stupid. You talk about Palestine.
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 4: What Palestine doesn't even exist. You just love hating the Jews.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 4: It's kh in New York these days. And you're a loser.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 4: You're never going to see a vagina never, So what
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 4: do you do? You walk the streets with a bunch
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 4: of losers, some paid, some not, and you caused a
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 4: whole bunch of Havoc. Can you feel important? And the
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 4: mayor he encourages it? How does he encourage it? Well,
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 4: he's friends with Hassan Piker. Well, how do you do that?
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 4: Ohmach Mood Khalil, Well, how do you do that? He's
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 4: supported by a Democrat party that for every Tucker Carlson
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 4: who's a douchebag, there's fifty Democrats that are worse the squad,
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 4: even Jews, Chuck Schumer, Bernie Sanders, Jamie Raskin, fat, stupid,
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 4: Jerry Nadler. The list goes on and on. So what
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 4: do you expect. He's got a wife that likes images
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 4: of girls getting raped in October the seventh and when
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 4: asked about it, he says, I love my wife. Good
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 4: for you. So there's no surprise here. We knew who
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 4: this guy was, right. It wasn't like during his campaign
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 4: he said nice things about the nah No, he continues
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 4: to say nice things about globalizing the Indo fat now
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 4: he likes that refuses to recognize Israel as a Jewish state.
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 4: This buffer zone thing that Julie Menin tried to do
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 4: with the city council, Oh, stop it, nice, try Julie's
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 4: trying you know what can I tell you? I hate
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 4: the way she handles Vicky Palladino and shay O Say
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 4: and these other losers in the city council. The bupper
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 4: zone thing's ridiculous. It's they got the votes, but so
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 4: he can't veto with the mayor, but no one's rushing
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 4: to get it done in one of the synagogues and
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 4: the school that one he did veto. So now you
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 4: got little kids. There is a true story, folks, little
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 4: kids going to yeshiva that have to go home early
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 4: because if they stay too late it gets dangerous. They
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 4: are sending little kids who go to yeshiva's in Brooklyn,
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 4: in Queen's Home early because if they stay too late,
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 4: it gets too dangerous. Have you heard the mayor to
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 4: talk about it? No, I haven't. I haven't. So when
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 4: they do all these stories on why why why why why,
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 4: the answer is very easy. We've got people in power
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 4: both politically and even these podcasters that hate the Jews
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 4: are encouraged to hate the Jews and almost celebrated because
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 4: they hate the Jews all right. Years and years ago,
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 4: when my stay at WPN was over, Mark Churnoff came
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 4: to the realization in like ten minutes. I got to
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 4: get this guy back. Bottom line, I need sid. So
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 4: he came up with this brilliant idea. He said, Listen,
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 4: I can't hire you back at the fan right away,
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 4: Mason and all those guys that are against it. Let's
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 4: get you back into the family and you'll ease your
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 4: way back into that seat at wf an. Okay, great,
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 4: what's the idea. We'll get your job at ten ten wins.
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 4: I go, what what are you talking about? That's all
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 4: news all the time. They've got Marker and they don't
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 4: bout mark It's like the mob. Don't about more. We'll
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 4: take care the more, he said. Okay, who am I
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 4: working with? Lee Harris? I know Lee, of course, he's
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 4: a genius and an all time great. And Judy Deanres.
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 4: I'm like, but Judy. I heard thing like Judy to me.
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 4: I was told that Judy was basically the female version
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 4: of Imus, that she is going to be very tough,
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 4: break your balls, not going to be easy, mind you.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 4: I will tell you my experience for the one year
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 4: with Judy was not that she was actually great, but
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 4: Lee and I became really good friends, and I believe
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 4: he is the greatest, no disrespect to Scott Stanford and
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 4: you right now know because you're doing a talk show.
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 4: But in terms of straight news talk, I think he's
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 4: the best morning I can ever And now he's walking
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 4: around the holes at WABC talking about the Worldwide News Network,
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 4: I think, and I have no idea what that is.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 4: And I work at this station. I'm the number one
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 4: way and this guy at this station. So I'm happy
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 4: Lee is here because I love him and he's a
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 4: magnificent talent, magnificent, But I have no idea what the
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 4: hell you're doing here.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 20: I could clue you in if you gave me a
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 20: couple of minutes to talk. You're on the mic right now, handsome,
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 20: so take it away.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 7: Hey.
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 20: I was never happier at WINS than when you came on,
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 20: because I thought it was the most new Yorkiest thing
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 20: that had ever New York. When you came on, here's
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 20: a guy hiding out down in Florida. You know, he's
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 20: probably exactly right.
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 4: It was kind of like the.
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 20: Witness Protection program Halfway Halfway House for radio, and it
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 20: just sounded so New York even though it was originating
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 20: from down there. You know, he was a guy who's
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 20: paying a lot of attention to the scores because there
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 20: might be a buck or two riding on them, right,
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 20: And I was just so happy every time you came on.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 20: I think, I think we put it across. We have
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 20: our credentials. Now, not everybody from WINS was from in town.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 20: They weren't all Brooklyn guys like you show.
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 4: So you gave us. You gave us a lot of
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 4: cred during your brief stay. It was fun and what terrific.
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 4: So thank Now this is the radio station that made
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 4: me want to get into radio. You know why.
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 20: Yeah, because I heard guys working three hours a day
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 20: playing records and making jokes.
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 4: I was a pretty lazy kid, and I thought that's
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 4: a job for me. Yeah. Now it turned out who
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 4: were some of those guys.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 20: Some of them Dan Ingram I wanted to be Dan,
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 20: of course, and Brucey Harry Harrison in the morning. I
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 20: didn't think he was that funny, and he wasn't, but
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 20: he was, you know, but he had to be the
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 20: traffic cop in the morning.
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and Ron but he did do the Beatles breakfast,
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 4: which was a big deal. Oh you didn't love the
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 4: Harry Harrison Beatles breakfast.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 20: I probably wasn't up early back then, you know, it
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 20: was this sleep into one. But you know, I later
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 20: discovered I wasn't a very good DJ, so I wound
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 20: up in news and you know it worked out. Okay, okay,
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 20: you were a legend. What did you start actually doing
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 20: the morning anchor on ten ten wins in nineteen ninety three?
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 20: So how long did you end up keeping that job?
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 20: Was almost thirty years?
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 7: Wow?
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 4: Thirty years? Now did you work with Judy the whole time?
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 4: I don't think so.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 20: I worked with Judy till twenty fifteen. Then Bridget Quinn
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 20: came in. Oh yes, and she was very good and
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 20: a little less flighty than Judy. Yeah, and well Jodiada moments.
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 20: I ended up loving Judy.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, thought what I heard about her before was not accurate.
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 4: But but she did get a little feist every now
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 4: and then. Well she was from the stage.
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 20: She had been on Broadway, Yeah, apparently for one night
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 20: in a show starring Meat Loaf called Rocked by Hamlet.
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 4: She put her talents to good use at ten ten. Well,
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 4: you guys had a great team. I liked her too,
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 4: She was very very good. So now we're reading about
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 4: this worldwide news network. It's all over your friend Alan
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 4: Snippn's message board, and you seem to be the man
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 4: in charge of this. So what is that all about.
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 20: Yeah, Well, as a lot of your listeners may know,
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 20: the CBS Radio Network is going out of business. Two
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 20: weeks from tomorrow. They will broadcast for the very last
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 20: time after ninety nine years of really starting the radio
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 20: news business.
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 4: What do you think they're going out of it? Look,
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 4: the clear answer is that I'm making money, okay, and
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 4: that's why CBS AM Radio went out of business. Plus
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 4: the fact I was killing that morning show, killing them
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 4: and it's very difficult to stay afloat if you're not
• 1:37:05
  Speaker 4: doing well waitings wise in the morning. But CBS had
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 4: both ten ten wins and CBS that they could afford
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 4: to only keep one. Alavero made ten ten wins in
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 4: FM station as well, and CBS Radio went away.
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 20: Why is this the case now, though, Well, don't forget
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 20: we're talking really about two different companies now. So CBS
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 20: Radio Network is actually owned by CBS News and the
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 20: reason why they're getting rid of it is a little
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 20: more complicated the company.
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 4: That's Barry Weiss's decision.
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 20: Well, yes, and no, not too contradict, but she's part
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 20: of it for sure. CBS in its current form is
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 20: not interested in broadcasting, as you and I know it.
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 20: They are interested in subscription. They want you to sign
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 20: up for paramount plus. Rather than chase ad dollars, which
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 20: is increasingly more difficult, they would like you to just
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 20: subscribe and give them the money directly. And that's where
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 20: the CBS Radio Network does not fit. There's no subscription
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 20: model for that. No one's going to give you ten
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 20: dollars a month. I'll hear a newscast at the top
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 20: of the hour that said it is a great business
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 20: done properly, and fortunately we have the leadership here that
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 20: understands that, and that is the business we will be in.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 20: When CBS Radio Network goes down eleven thirty one pm
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 20: on May twenty second, at midnight May twenty third, the
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 20: World News Network, Worldwide News Network will take its place.
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 4: We will rise up when they fall midnight. We will
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 4: grab the flag and carry on.
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 20: That's very exciting, better than ever, and there will be
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 20: people who work there who come to work for us.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 20: It'll sound pretty similar, but I think it will have
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 20: better editorial guidance.
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 4: Let's just put it that way. I'm with you one
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 4: hundred percent. All right, cool and give us at date
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 4: one more time, Lee Harris. We will be up at
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 4: May twenty third, at midnight. You will hear it on WABC.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 4: You'll hear the first three minutes of the network every hour.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 4: Try to get to it on time, sid and then
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 4: we'll follow that up with local news. It's a hard
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 4: join as we see here in showbiz. This is the
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 4: pinnacle of my career, thirty years of wins. That was nice. Yeah,
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 4: this is the pinnacle, I believe you. It's so good
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 4: to see you till You're a great guy and a
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 4: great talent, and we're very lucky to have you here
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 4: in this new endeavor of ours at WABC, which should
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 4: be a huge success. So it's great to see you
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 4: every morning, Lee Harris.
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 20: And it's great to see you. I mean, you know,
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 20: we used to not see each other, sure, three thousand
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 20: miles away. I have to thank mister Katsamatids for having
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 20: the vision. A lot of doubters about what went on here,
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 20: you can see them on the message board today, and
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 20: I must admit to some skepticism myself initially, but I've
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 20: been proven wrong, not for the first time. So thanks
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 20: to mister Katsumatides and our fearless leader Chad Lopez for
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 20: seeing this through and giving us what we need to
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 20: do this agreed.
• 1:39:54
  Speaker 4: You're great and so were they. Lee Harris, congratulations, best
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 4: of luck. You and I will talk often on this,
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 4: I'm sure. Thank you so much. It's a great Lee
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 4: hires folks.
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 2: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 2: podcast network.
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 4: They will run the Kentucky Derby winner Golden Temple in
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 4: the Belmont, which will be at Saratoga this year. That's
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 4: going to be some weekend. My god, it's gorgeous up
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 4: there anyway. People love Saratoga in August, especially of course
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 4: at Beaumont is in June. But that is going to
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 4: be some exciting weekend up in Saratoga, which I'll be
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 4: going to. I can't wait. So that is the news
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 4: on Golden Temple. There'll be no Triple Crown winner in
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty six because the Kentucky Derby winner will not
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 4: be racing in the Preakness. All right, Stephen A. Smith
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 4: right now is on fire. There's nobody bigger, nobody, nobody
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 4: makes more money. I don't think Pat McAfee makes more
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 4: money than Stephen A. Smith does he I don't think so.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 4: I don't think so. Stephen A. Smith makes the most money.
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 4: He's on First Take. He's got a new partner there
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 4: who's actually an old partner. He does politics. It's a
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 4: big deal. He's been hinting at a possible presidential run
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 4: in twenty twenty eight. He's taking that off the table
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 4: now because he said, sid, I'm not giving up my money.
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 4: And ESPN actually said to stephen A. Smith, if you
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 4: walk on that debate stage, you're done, they threatened him.
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 4: I guess so he's not going to run for president.
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 4: But he remains very active in the political conversation, and
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 4: he's very good. He's very common sense, and you know,
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 4: he's not a mag Republican like me, but I like
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 4: what he has to say. And he does that News
• 1:41:38
  Speaker 4: Nation show quite a bit with Bill O'Reilly, who's going
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 4: to join us in about twenty five minutes, and Chris
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 4: Cuomo if he's out on weekly, he's on quite a bit.
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 4: So Stephen A. Smith said to me yesterday, he goes, listen,
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 4: I'll come on and talk about the Knicks. I'll come
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 4: on and talk about Skip Bayless. He goes, but what
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 4: I really enjoyed doing on your show is talking politics,
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 4: which is surreal for me because I've got a sports background.
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 4: He's the biggest name in sports today and he loves
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 4: coming on this show to talk politics like Beningo does
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 4: and so many others. So will take a short break
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 4: and come back with the amazing one two punch of
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 4: Stephen A. Smith and Bill O'Reilly.
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 2: Podcast Network.
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 4: About thirty minutes ago, looking out these big windows was
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 4: writing and now I see sunshine. Is that why you
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 4: played the song?
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 14: Louise I planned the weather.
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 4: Today like that, right, You've got that type of power, yes,
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 4: just like.
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 14: These fans that are scared to jinx their team.
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 4: Yea moron, because they all of a.
• 1:42:50
  Speaker 14: Sudden have discovered that they have the power of yeah,
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 14: controlling destiny.
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 4: Like if I don't wear my throwm in months in
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 4: Jersey today eleg is like that. By the way, you know,
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 4: the more about it, the more I'm gonna have to
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 4: rough up Chris Rushol a little bit. He was very
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 4: disrespectful yesterday then at one point called me a disgrace absolutely.
• 1:43:09
  Speaker 4: I think the better word was weak. Week two called
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 4: me week like ten times.
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 7: How are you.
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 4: Beside him? He was nuts. You can't do you know
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 4: what a fan?
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 6: That is not a fan.
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 4: You're not a fan.
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 14: That's not what a fan does, Sidney.
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 4: I love Chris, I do.
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 7: He is.
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 4: He's as good as it gets. He was all those
• 1:43:30
  Speaker 4: years we've worked together at the Fan Me and Jody
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 4: mac Me and Benino alongside Mike and the mad Dog
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 4: and well, he was furious yesterday that I left the match.
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 4: I'm done with the match. I'm done, even though I
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 4: talked to Steve Cohen and I like Steve a lot.
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 4: He's a nice man, very nice man, and they won
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 4: four out of five. But I'm a Yachi fan. Now
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 4: that's it. Fifty nine years I made the move. That's
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 4: nothing to do with the play on the field. There
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 4: has everything to do with the organization. Some decisions they've made,
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 4: some very woke decisions. Some of the guys. They traded
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 4: the relationship with the mayor and Russo couldn't understand that.
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 4: So because dork, he only cares about baseball wins and losses.
• 1:44:04
  Speaker 4: That's it. I mean, he loves his wife and his kids.
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 4: But if the Giants lose and al don't think it
• 1:44:10
  Speaker 4: matters as much now as it did twenty years ago,
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 4: he'd literally be in a bad mood.
• 1:44:13
  Speaker 14: You could take that exit Vello Sydney and I want
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 14: to see what they're doing in second first place.
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 4: That's it. So you know he works with Stephen A.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 4: Smith and well, that is a heck of a one
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 4: to two combination. I'm sorry, you can't get better than that.
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 4: Stephen A, I believe, has now distinguished himself as the
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 4: biggest and best, most influential sports voice and face in
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 4: the business. And you put those two together, Smith and
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 4: Russo and it's it's a scream. It's hysterical. And they're
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 4: both very knowledgeable too. And Stephen loves coming on this show,
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 4: not because he loves talking about the next he does
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 4: that all day. He likes it, but because we get
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 4: into other stuff like I don't know, like this poll
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 4: I saw on Stephen A. Smith's page, his Twitter page.
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 4: It reads, is the twenty twenty six midterms, but to
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 4: take place tomorrow. What issue is top of mind for
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 4: you heading to the polls? And he gave you more
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 4: choices gas prices. Iran wore jerrymandering White House ballroom, and
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 4: when I checked in it was over a half a million.
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 4: A lot of folks participated. I did, in fact vote.
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 4: I took gas prices and I was in the lead
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 4: at the time. So here he is, the ultra talented
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 4: dear friend of mine, the great stephen A. Smith. Steve,
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 4: good morning, buddy. How are you?
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 7: What's going to say?
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 3: Good morning man? How you doing?
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 4: I'm doing great. It's great to have you. I haven't
• 1:45:41
  Speaker 4: checked the poll, I'm sure you have. Of those four,
• 1:45:44
  Speaker 4: did gas prices take home the win?
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 6: Gas prices was number one, was number two, jerry Mandarin
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 6: was number three, and obviously number four was.
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 4: What it was, so number we do need that though.
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 4: They're trying to kill the president and every opportunity. So
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 4: the lesson he's in public, especially at the hotels, I think,
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 4: the better off. And don't forget, you know, with the
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 4: whole ballroom. Think Steve, I know you know this, it's
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 4: not about Trump. If they do it, by the time
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 4: they do it, President Trump will have about three months
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 4: left in office. This will be for the presidents after Trump,
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 4: many of which will be Democrats. So I'm not sure
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 4: why Democrats are upset about the possibility of securing safety
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 4: for presidents of both parties moving forward. How does that
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 4: make sense?
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 6: Well, that depends on how seriously you take the Democrats.
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 6: What I mean by that is, you know, you have
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 6: some Democrats that are just true politicians, and then you
• 1:46:40
  Speaker 6: have others who hate Trump so much it truly is it,
• 1:46:45
  Speaker 6: truly is true that if he had a cure for cancer,
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 6: they would resist. You have those kind of folks out
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 6: there on the extreme left. I don't call you know,
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 6: I don't consider them democrats. I consider them progressives that
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 6: are to the extreme and anything that Trump suggests, they're going.
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 3: To be against it no matter what.
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 6: And so you have to be able to delineate the
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 6: difference between two before moving forward, because that's just the
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 6: reality of the situation.
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 4: So you really want to talk this morning about what
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 4: you believe is the real likelihood maybe probability, not possibility.
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 4: Not the Republicans my party, because I'm maga that we
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 4: get slacked come November in the mid tim.
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 6: You're you're going to lose.
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 4: How do you know that?
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 6: I just think that you have too much that has
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 6: been going on in this country.
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 4: Once I was like, before you move each other, and
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 4: you know just about this is May every day. Every day.
• 1:47:48
  Speaker 4: In our business politics, it's like six months. So to
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 4: really try to predict with any real accuracy what's going
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 4: to happen six months from now would be like you
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 4: telling me that the Nixon won the championship in three years.
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 6: Fair enough, but fair enough, But said, last time I checked.
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 6: You came from the world of sports, did you not?
• 1:48:10
  Speaker 4: I did?
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 3: Are we scared to put notsic. We're not like other people.
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 6: We let you know where we stand and how we feel.
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 6: That's why we are who we are. So what I'm
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 6: saying to you is that I be wrong. Of course,
• 1:48:22
  Speaker 6: I'm not flawless, not perfect. I've been wrong in the past,
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 6: but I took my percentage up against most. And the
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 6: fact of the matter is that in our business, we
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 6: look at the tea leaves and beyond and we deduce
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 6: what we believe is going to happen. And when we
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 6: look at our audience, we say, from the vantage point
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 6: of the facts that are presented to us, what we
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 6: believe in, what we feel. We're not married to it,
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 6: from the standpoint of recognizing that we could potentially be wrong,
• 1:48:49
  Speaker 6: but we highly doubt it.
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 3: So we say.
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 6: So that's what I'm doing, and I'm saying to you,
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 6: it's not about so many people talk about Trump, Trump, Trump.
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 6: I get so tired of it. And here's the reason
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 6: why you got four hundred and thirty five representatives in
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 6: the nation's capital. You've got one hundred senators. Trump, unless
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 6: he's going to circumvent the twenty second member of the Constitution,
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 6: is gone in twenty twenty eight. And the people that
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 6: whether it's the GOP on the right, whether it's the
• 1:49:21
  Speaker 6: people on the extreme left, are going to have to
• 1:49:24
  Speaker 6: live with all the decisions that they made and the
• 1:49:26
  Speaker 6: rationales behind it to justify their actions. And you're not
• 1:49:30
  Speaker 6: going to have Trump to lean on. You're gonna have
• 1:49:33
  Speaker 6: to lean on your own.
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 3: This is why I get on Republicans the way that
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 3: I do.
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 6: When I bring up the corner, I don't even get
• 1:49:39
  Speaker 6: the policy. My issue with Trump is always the quorum.
• 1:49:43
  Speaker 6: It's always the statesmanship position that is the presidency. It's
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 6: always about how he acts, and it's always about those
• 1:49:49
  Speaker 6: who capitulate or acquiess to or co sign how he
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 6: goes about doing things. Because I'm saying to them, what
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 6: about when he's gone throughout history, we pay attention to
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 6: president Now, even with the Supreme Court, a lot of
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 6: decisions that are made a lean on precedent we forget.
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 6: I don't care how great you think he is, if
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 6: you're a maga, if you're the right.
• 1:50:14
  Speaker 3: He ain't gonna always be there.
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 6: And it ain't no jd Evance, no Ron DeSantis, no
• 1:50:20
  Speaker 6: Marco Ruby, or no anybody is going to be able.
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 3: To sit up there and mimic what he's done and get.
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 6: Away with the things that he's done. So when people
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 6: don't hold you accountable the total line and the actual
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 6: the level of the korma professionalism and statesmanship, that's important
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 6: to make sure you're not holarizing the nation to such
• 1:50:42
  Speaker 6: a degree that we can't come back from that. It's
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 6: going to come back to bite you in the cast.
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'm saying okay, and what you're saying is smart
• 1:50:50
  Speaker 4: and fair. I'm gonna turn on on you, Steve. Okay,
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 4: So I'm gonna give you a guy that had a
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 4: lot of decorum, was elegant, was eloquent, and he was
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 4: a horrible president. I don't care what you say, Barack Obama.
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 4: Under Barack Obama, what was born Blm. Missouri was on fire,
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 4: Maryland was on fire, Staten Island was on fire. He
• 1:51:12
  Speaker 4: bailed us out a couple of times. We had the
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 4: slowest moving economic growth in the history of the country.
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 4: He called isis the JV. And even though this guy's
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 4: got bin laden years later, they were killing people from
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 4: Paris to Brussels to California. The race issue in this
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 4: country for a black president was at an all time high.
• 1:51:33
  Speaker 4: So what do I care about elegance and decorum? I
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 4: want results. Those are two ends of the spectrum. One
• 1:51:42
  Speaker 4: guy got nothing done in eight years. One guy has
• 1:51:45
  Speaker 4: been around but twelve years getting a whole bunch of
• 1:51:47
  Speaker 4: stuff done. What's more important to you?
• 1:51:50
  Speaker 6: Well, what's more important than me of results and getting
• 1:51:53
  Speaker 6: stuff done? So I will give you that, But what
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 6: you're missing, and I think it's incredibly important that I
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 6: say this that and this is where the divide comes in.
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 3: That's how you feel.
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 6: There's millions, tends upon tens of millions of people who
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 6: had no issue with what Barack Obama did. And that
• 1:52:13
  Speaker 6: is where the divide in our country comes into play.
• 1:52:16
  Speaker 6: Because the bottom line is this, you have people who
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 6: are hard for liberals and you are a hard core writing.
• 1:52:23
  Speaker 6: That's where you stand, and I respect it. I don't
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 6: know always agree with it, of course, but I respect it.
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 6: The point is that in the end, when you're in
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 6: that position, especially when you can get things done without
• 1:52:36
  Speaker 6: all of that pomp and circumstance, without all of that drama,
• 1:52:39
  Speaker 6: and you choose to be that way anyway, Like, for example,
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 6: you're President Trump, really you know you're going after the
• 1:52:47
  Speaker 6: Jimmy Kimbles of the world, the Stephen Coberts of the world,
• 1:52:50
  Speaker 6: the Bill Mars of the world. Okay, but y'all are
• 1:52:53
  Speaker 6: the same party that's talking about First Amendment rights, the
• 1:52:56
  Speaker 6: First Amendment privileges. You talk about this kind of stuff.
• 1:52:59
  Speaker 6: So when you turn to and around and you try
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 6: to get people fired from the White.
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 3: House, that is the kind of stuff that's going to
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 3: come back to bite you in the ass.
• 1:53:07
  Speaker 6: Because the minute the Democrats get into power, because you
• 1:53:10
  Speaker 6: know eventually it will happen, one of the first things
• 1:53:12
  Speaker 6: they're going to say is you see what they did
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 6: when they have power. See, this is how assesschool foments
• 1:53:19
  Speaker 6: in proliferation grows.
• 1:53:21
  Speaker 3: You got to think about more than just yourself.
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 6: I'm not talking about policy I'm not talking about the
• 1:53:25
  Speaker 6: things that Trump is and I understand that people on
• 1:53:28
  Speaker 6: the left are going to complain about it, people on
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 6: the right are going to celebrate it. What I'm saying
• 1:53:32
  Speaker 6: to you said is that.
• 1:53:34
  Speaker 7: There are things that he.
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 3: Has gotten done that you have been very pleased with
• 1:53:39
  Speaker 3: that doesn't require.
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 4: All of that.
• 1:53:41
  Speaker 3: Yes, he's got maga.
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 6: He's lost the independence. They're disgusted with him. When he
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 6: lost in twenty twenty, I didn't say Biden won. I
• 1:53:49
  Speaker 6: said Trump lost because the manner in which he conducted
• 1:53:53
  Speaker 6: himself alienated so many people.
• 1:53:55
  Speaker 3: They didn't want the chaos, and as a result we
• 1:53:58
  Speaker 3: got Biden and some of the nonsense that they did.
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 3: And it's unforgivable how he opened the border. Unforgivable. I
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 3: know that, but it had never been in office. It's
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 3: your man that acted with some decorum and some decency, Okay,
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 3: And in the end, when you have people that you've
• 1:54:14
  Speaker 3: turned off, Yeah, he might.
• 1:54:17
  Speaker 6: Survive, but these Republicans ain't him.
• 1:54:20
  Speaker 3: And whether it's the midterms or it's twenty twenty eight,
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 3: Bromp is not going to be there.
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 6: He's gonna have an impact, but he's not going to
• 1:54:29
  Speaker 6: be able to pull it off for them. Ultimately, they're
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 6: going to have to stand on their own toes.
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 7: What are you going to do?
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 4: Then, Well, I'm heard I'm gonna do it. I'm going
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 4: to give you a guy that agrees with every Trump
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 4: policy everyone and has that decorum you're looking for, that
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 4: attitude you like. His name is Marco Rubio. I'm not
• 1:54:48
  Speaker 4: going to give you a Democrat who's going to tell
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 4: me that I know you do. I know you do so,
• 1:54:53
  Speaker 4: but I want to Ansa that. So are you telling me,
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 4: stephen A that if the Republicans lose the mid and
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 4: I know you said they're going to, I'm saying if, okay,
• 1:55:02
  Speaker 4: because I'm still confident it's going to be because of
• 1:55:06
  Speaker 4: Trump's the quorum or because of gas prices and the
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 4: Iran war.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 3: Well, again, of.
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 6: Course it's going to be more substantive than his decoral
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 6: I understand that, okay, and so I'm certainly not gonna
• 1:55:18
  Speaker 6: say that the coroner stuff like that alone is what's
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 6: going to cost you. What I'm going to say, however,
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 6: is that when you're inclined to give others the benefit
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 6: of the doubt, you're not going to be so easy
• 1:55:30
  Speaker 6: and so quick to do that way, he's concerned, and
• 1:55:32
  Speaker 6: that's where it's going to come back to bite him.
• 1:55:35
  Speaker 6: And so for me personally, I think that's what this
• 1:55:37
  Speaker 6: comes down to. Of course, is going to come down
• 1:55:39
  Speaker 6: to your wallets. Of course, it's gonna come down to
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 6: gas prices which are at four dollars and fifty three cents,
• 1:55:44
  Speaker 6: just five cents from twenty four hours earlier. Of course,
• 1:55:47
  Speaker 6: that's the kind of stuff that's gonna hurt him more
• 1:55:49
  Speaker 6: than anything, especially since you don't expect that from him.
• 1:55:53
  Speaker 6: And it also, let's be honest, you also got people
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 6: on the right that are ticked off because they feel
• 1:55:58
  Speaker 6: he's broken promises to them. Whether it's no New Wars,
• 1:56:02
  Speaker 6: whether it's the Epstein files, you got people on your
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 6: side of the sense that have a problem with him.
• 1:56:08
  Speaker 7: This fit is not like it's just less now.
• 1:56:10
  Speaker 3: You've got people on the.
• 1:56:11
  Speaker 6: Right to playing about him every single damn day, and
• 1:56:14
  Speaker 6: so all of that stuff comes back in the end,
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 6: and it most certainly will come back to bite him
• 1:56:20
  Speaker 6: in my opinion.
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 4: So do you believe that the second term for President Trump,
• 1:56:25
  Speaker 4: who you know, had that first term, like you said,
• 1:56:27
  Speaker 4: he lost to Biden. He doesn't think so he thinks
• 1:56:29
  Speaker 4: it was Raad. That's fine, but he comes back with
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 4: a just he walloped Harris, he walloped her. And maybe
• 1:56:35
  Speaker 4: that's because Biden was so bad what he was. Maybe
• 1:56:38
  Speaker 4: that's because Trump's policies were so good, which they are.
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 4: But are you telling me now at this point that
• 1:56:45
  Speaker 4: his legacy is tarnished to the point where he may
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 4: not be considered an all time great in terms of
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 4: the presidency? Oh? Come on, Steve, come on, come on.
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 6: You got millions of people who feel differently than you.
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 6: Just because you love everything he does doesn't mean everybody I.
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 4: Don't love everything he does. But by the way, just
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 4: you know, with Obama, with Obama the goddamn healthcare, how about.
• 1:57:12
  Speaker 6: That, Steve, Excuse me, I'm not I'm not a fan
• 1:57:16
  Speaker 6: of everything Obama has done, and a matter of fact,
• 1:57:19
  Speaker 6: I've called him out on some of the things that
• 1:57:21
  Speaker 6: he has done.
• 1:57:22
  Speaker 3: Also, I pursued interviews with him for years to sit.
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 6: Down and talk about because I'm not going to fall
• 1:57:28
  Speaker 6: in over him like a whole bunch of people, just
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 6: like I wouldn't have fallen over anybody else. I'm gonna
• 1:57:32
  Speaker 6: call balls and stripes and call the one I see it,
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 6: And if Barack Obama ever sat down with me, trust me,
• 1:57:38
  Speaker 6: he'd have some questions to answer, no doubt about it.
• 1:57:41
  Speaker 6: But in the same breath, when you looked at Trump,
• 1:57:43
  Speaker 6: every damn thing that he's done is right?
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 4: You sure?
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 6: I listen, I've got Democrats and Republicans saying, hey, we
• 1:57:51
  Speaker 6: understand he had to go after Iran. You can't let
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 6: them get a nuclear weapon. We know that the number
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 6: one sponsored terrorism. We can't have that. That prop you
• 1:58:00
  Speaker 6: know their proxies in the mobs, that has Blota, we
• 1:58:02
  Speaker 6: can't have that. Told to get it. But didn't you
• 1:58:05
  Speaker 6: bomb in the June. Didn't you say you had obliterated them?
• 1:58:08
  Speaker 6: Didn't you say they was finished? And then turned around
• 1:58:11
  Speaker 6: into all of a sudden we worried about them as
• 1:58:13
  Speaker 6: getting a nuclear weapon months later within thirty days. What's
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 6: that about. There's a level of honesty that people on
• 1:58:20
  Speaker 6: your side are questioning about him. We've got an economy,
• 1:58:23
  Speaker 6: We've got inflationary issues that can't be ignored. We've got
• 1:58:27
  Speaker 6: people on the right saying he was supposed to be
• 1:58:29
  Speaker 6: about America first, Yet everything has been going on overseas.
• 1:58:32
  Speaker 3: What the hell is he doing? There's problems at home.
• 1:58:35
  Speaker 3: Let's resolve those things. You got folks in.
• 1:58:38
  Speaker 6: The black community that have looked at him and others
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 6: and they said, wait a minute, why is it your
• 1:58:43
  Speaker 6: business to try to depatch us from our history in
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 6: terms of what we should have access to about what's
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 6: happened in this country historically. It ain't just white people
• 1:58:51
  Speaker 6: in this country. There's Jewish folks in this country. There's
• 1:58:53
  Speaker 6: Black folks in this country. There's Catholic folks in this country.
• 1:58:56
  Speaker 3: You fighting with both and stuff like you don't think
• 1:58:58
  Speaker 3: stuff like that's.
• 1:58:59
  Speaker 6: Gonna come back to bite the corn said, you got
• 1:59:01
  Speaker 6: to be real with that. The fact is that it
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 6: hasn't been perfect. And yes, his legacy has been tainted
• 1:59:08
  Speaker 6: to some degree because even though it hasn't been a
• 1:59:10
  Speaker 6: disaster that democrats, particularly progressive predict it with transpire in
• 1:59:15
  Speaker 6: the same breath, it hasn't been as flawless as he portrays.
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 6: And just because he comes out and says, oh, it's beautiful,
• 1:59:22
  Speaker 6: we're great, blah blah blah. Yeah, but your vice president
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 6: is talking to people and agriculture and farmers and every
• 1:59:28
  Speaker 6: day that please be patient with us, please be fatient.
• 1:59:31
  Speaker 6: Oh so you're acknowledging the job they finished. You're acknowledging
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 6: this work to be done. You're acknowledging that you've come
• 1:59:36
  Speaker 6: up short for the time being and you've got to
• 1:59:38
  Speaker 6: get your ducks in order. You're acknowledging that. Well, thank you,
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 6: welcome to the party, because a whole bunch of American
• 1:59:44
  Speaker 6: citizens are looking at in saying.
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 3: What the hell is going on?
• 1:59:47
  Speaker 4: Nothing unfair about what you just said, nothing unfair about it.
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 4: But I will tell you this, well, yes, Iran has
• 1:59:53
  Speaker 4: been a big focus, and you want to throw Israel
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 4: in there for the not for you, but the anti Semites.
• 1:59:58
  Speaker 4: I think that everything Trump does is because of Israel,
• 2:00:00
  Speaker 4: which is ridiculous. That's fine, but last I checked, it's
• 2:00:04
  Speaker 4: not just Trump or what he's doing. Okay, when you
• 2:00:07
  Speaker 4: go to vote come November, what Democrat? What Democrat are
• 2:00:10
  Speaker 4: you going to vote for because of something that they want?
• 2:00:13
  Speaker 4: I mean, look, you know, President Trump fixed a lot
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 4: of the crime issues in Washington, d c. Despite despite
• 2:00:21
  Speaker 4: people in the police office that tried to actually distort
• 2:00:25
  Speaker 4: the numbers. Thirteen were sent home, mind you, But he's
• 2:00:28
  Speaker 4: made some of these American cities safer. When you've got
• 2:00:31
  Speaker 4: illegals Okay, So when you've got illegals in our country,
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 4: Stephen A. Smith murdering eighty three year old Richard Williams
• 2:00:40
  Speaker 4: of a Vietnam vett on the subway tracks in New York,
• 2:00:43
  Speaker 4: shooting Sheridan Gorman in the back in Illinois, and you've
• 2:00:47
  Speaker 4: got Brandon Johnson, that idiot, and JB. Pritzker and Gavin
• 2:00:52
  Speaker 4: Newsom and Karen Bass and Mondani and Kathy Hokel telling
• 2:00:56
  Speaker 4: us that ice is the problem because two people did
• 2:00:59
  Speaker 4: end up compared to eight thousand bad guys they put away.
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 4: When they're telling us that, when the truth is that
• 2:01:05
  Speaker 4: Trump is doing a much better job keeping a major
• 2:01:08
  Speaker 4: city safe. It's not just all about Iran. He has
• 2:01:11
  Speaker 4: done some things in our own country that Democrats are
• 2:01:15
  Speaker 4: opposed to, which include keeping Americans safe when it comes
• 2:01:19
  Speaker 4: to illegals.
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 6: Hotly agree, totally agree. And the fact of the matter
• 2:01:24
  Speaker 6: is that listen, when you have when you have anybody
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 6: committing crimes in this country, anybody they're supposed to be
• 2:01:32
  Speaker 6: dealt with, I would caution us to be careful from
• 2:01:35
  Speaker 6: the standpoint of yes, we talk about illegals, and we
• 2:01:39
  Speaker 6: understand it. We're talking about illegals but there's a whole
• 2:01:42
  Speaker 6: bunch of people from the Latin community, okay, from the Hispanic,
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 6: the Latino community, et cetera, that are doing wonderful things
• 2:01:49
  Speaker 6: in this country. I am not for open borders.
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 7: We all know that.
• 2:01:53
  Speaker 6: I've been adamantly against that. I have no problem with
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 6: Trump closing the borders because Bidenovia does, which was an
• 2:01:59
  Speaker 6: inex excusable and heinous thing for him to do, which,
• 2:02:02
  Speaker 6: by the way, also went against Barack Obama, who had
• 2:02:05
  Speaker 6: deported over three point one million, one million people during
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 6: his tenure. So why the hell would his vice president
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 6: turn around and have the open borders. We know why,
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 6: because the progressives, the extreme lessons running the damned country,
• 2:02:17
  Speaker 6: and we certainly don't want that. I get your point, okay,
• 2:02:20
  Speaker 6: But the fact is that in the process of Trump
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 6: doing all of those things that have been right, it
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 6: doesn't negate the things that I said. And when you
• 2:02:28
  Speaker 6: walk around, I'm talking about people like yourself and others.
• 2:02:32
  Speaker 6: And again I'm getting on you playfully though, from the
• 2:02:36
  Speaker 6: standpoint of everything the man does is not right and
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 6: when and you're also thinking about the presidency, you're not
• 2:02:44
  Speaker 6: running against him. In twenty twenty eight, and in twenty
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 6: twenty six, there are multiple states throughout this country. We
• 2:02:50
  Speaker 6: don't know who the Democratic opposition is. What we do
• 2:02:53
  Speaker 6: know is that a lot of them ain't progressive leftists.
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 6: A lot of them are traditionalists as Democrats posed to
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 6: the Democratic Party, you know, being at the mercy of
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 6: the extreme left themselves. So guess what you do have
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 6: a lot of people. There's a reason why forty five
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 6: or sixty percent of the electorate is considered independence. It's
• 2:03:12
  Speaker 6: not that they're not going to vote Democrat or Republican.
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 6: It's that they're saying, we have sense. We're not extreme
• 2:03:19
  Speaker 6: on either side of the aisle. We're somewhat centrist in
• 2:03:22
  Speaker 6: our thinking, meaning that we understand what we want and
• 2:03:25
  Speaker 6: what we believe, but we're willing to negotiate with the
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 6: other side. We're willing to hear what the other side
• 2:03:30
  Speaker 6: has to say. We're willing to acknowledge when they have
• 2:03:32
  Speaker 6: a point that we don't need to ignore shove aside.
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 6: That is truly the American way. One of the greatest
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 6: Speakers of the House in history was considered to be
• 2:03:42
  Speaker 6: Tip O'Neill. Why because of the relationships that he cultivated
• 2:03:46
  Speaker 6: and how we could walk across the isle and make
• 2:03:48
  Speaker 6: deals happen, and that could not be ignored. We've lost
• 2:03:53
  Speaker 6: our weigh in that regard, and unfortunately Trump has done
• 2:03:57
  Speaker 6: nothing to assist in that regard. Now totally his fault
• 2:04:00
  Speaker 6: because you've got some deranged individuals on the extreme left
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 6: who will go to any means to smear him and
• 2:04:06
  Speaker 6: all of that other stuff. I get that part, but
• 2:04:08
  Speaker 6: the point is neither side is innocent, and in the end,
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 6: who's being affected most detrimentally is the American people who
• 2:04:16
  Speaker 6: go to work every day, who bust our ask work hard,
• 2:04:19
  Speaker 6: trying to build a better life for ourselves and just
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 6: want people to go on Capitol Hill and do their
• 2:04:23
  Speaker 6: damn job and leave the drama to the soap boppers
• 2:04:26
  Speaker 6: and the drama series at night and the people like
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 6: us talking instead of them really foment.
• 2:04:32
  Speaker 7: And all of that.
• 2:04:33
  Speaker 6: That's what we're talking about here. That's where the stop
• 2:04:36
  Speaker 6: stop gap has to come. And are you and me
• 2:04:39
  Speaker 6: going to contribute to it or we gonna do what
• 2:04:42
  Speaker 6: we can to alleviate with bottom line, Well.
• 2:04:45
  Speaker 4: I got bad news. I don't know what the extreme
• 2:04:49
  Speaker 4: left is. I hear that a lot. I hear about
• 2:04:52
  Speaker 4: common sense Democrats, There's only one, and he's a Republican.
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 4: His name is John Fetterman. No one would consider Hakeem
• 2:04:58
  Speaker 4: Jeffrey's extreme left. He's extreme left. No one would consider
• 2:05:02
  Speaker 4: Chuck Schumer extreme left. He's extreme left. And no one
• 2:05:05
  Speaker 4: would consider your guy in Maryland West extreme left. He's
• 2:05:08
  Speaker 4: extreme left. So who are these people that you're talking about.
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 4: Who are these Democrats that you're talking about that are
• 2:05:14
  Speaker 4: not extreme left?
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 3: I know Wes Moore, I know.
• 2:05:19
  Speaker 4: Josh Shapiro.
• 2:05:23
  Speaker 3: I agree with that.
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 6: I agree with that, but he you know, not that
• 2:05:25
  Speaker 6: he states, but that he's Jewish and that he won't
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 6: win because of that thing with anti Semitism going on.
• 2:05:30
  Speaker 6: And I think that that that's what that will get
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 6: in the way. When I am saying to you, though said,
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 6: is that please understand. You know, these guys that I mentioned,
• 2:05:39
  Speaker 6: that you mentioned don't mind talking to you or anybody
• 2:05:42
  Speaker 6: else you handed you or anybody else in between. They're
• 2:05:45
  Speaker 6: not like the folks on the extreme left. What really
• 2:05:47
  Speaker 6: bothers me when you bring stuff like that up is
• 2:05:50
  Speaker 6: when you're acting like is their politicians. So unfortunately a
• 2:05:55
  Speaker 6: lot of them are committed to staying in office rather
• 2:05:59
  Speaker 6: than doing what they're supposed to be doing once they
• 2:06:02
  Speaker 6: get in office, because you have a lot of career
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 6: politicians on Capitol Hill, which you know better than me,
• 2:06:07
  Speaker 6: and because that's our reality. The fact of the matter
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 6: is you're going to have people who are locked in
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 6: and zoned in on making sure they maintain power, and
• 2:06:18
  Speaker 6: sometimes that calls for capitulations and acquiescence to decide that
• 2:06:22
  Speaker 6: you don't really really want to listen to, but you
• 2:06:24
  Speaker 6: have to for the time being. You're trying to tell
• 2:06:26
  Speaker 6: me where you listen to a tumor or you listen
• 2:06:29
  Speaker 6: to a Jos Shapiro or these other guys that they
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 6: want to be at the mercy of an AOC or
• 2:06:34
  Speaker 6: Bernie said, this is come on, you know better than that.
• 2:06:37
  Speaker 6: But unfortunately, in the world of politics, this kind of
• 2:06:40
  Speaker 6: stuff happens. And that's what is that I think you
• 2:06:43
  Speaker 6: have to remember because when it comes to the right,
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 6: if they have to if I set up there and
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 6: Trump is gone, and I'm pointing to all of these
• 2:06:50
  Speaker 6: things that the okaye, y'all going to say, what were.
• 2:06:53
  Speaker 3: They supposed to do? Trump was the man. Trump could
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 3: have gotten booted out of there.
• 2:06:57
  Speaker 6: Look at what he did in Indiana just recently with
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 6: the districting and these people that want to get them
• 2:07:03
  Speaker 6: job back sits to the seven candidates that's right, you know,
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 6: six and seven candidates one. So again he has that
• 2:07:09
  Speaker 6: kind of influence, that kind.
• 2:07:10
  Speaker 3: Of cash shape.
• 2:07:11
  Speaker 6: We noticed y'all would speak about it if it was
• 2:07:14
  Speaker 6: your side, don't ignore it when it's.
• 2:07:16
  Speaker 4: The other side on your side. You know the guy
• 2:07:18
  Speaker 4: that's doing that on your side. And even though I
• 2:07:20
  Speaker 4: know you're from Philly and all that, you're a great
• 2:07:23
  Speaker 4: new york You're right New York. That's right. You're a
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 4: New York guy. You're from Queen's right, You're a New
• 2:07:27
  Speaker 4: York You're worked in funny, but you're a New York guy.
• 2:07:29
  Speaker 4: You're a Nick fan. I think it's Stephen as a
• 2:07:31
  Speaker 4: great New Yorker. And you talk about Trump on my side.
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 4: You got a guy on your side that scares a
• 2:07:37
  Speaker 4: living daylights out of jeffreeze out of Schumer, happens to
• 2:07:41
  Speaker 4: be the mayor of your great city. And some of
• 2:07:44
  Speaker 4: your people, not some, a lot of your people voted
• 2:07:47
  Speaker 4: for this anti American, anti top, anti Israel, anti summit
• 2:07:51
  Speaker 4: piece of garbage.
• 2:07:52
  Speaker 3: Mo'm done, man, Hey man, we don't have to call
• 2:07:55
  Speaker 3: it in garbage.
• 2:07:56
  Speaker 4: We don't have to call it he's garbage.
• 2:08:00
  Speaker 6: Finish, all we have to say is that it's night marrish.
• 2:08:04
  Speaker 6: They shouldn't. I wouldn't have voted for him. He's still
• 2:08:07
  Speaker 6: saying he knows that, Okay, I would have. I would
• 2:08:10
  Speaker 6: have voted for Andrew Cuomo in a heartbeat. I would
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 6: have voted for an adult in the room, somebody that's
• 2:08:15
  Speaker 6: experienced doing the damn job, rather than him. But the
• 2:08:18
  Speaker 6: fact of the matter is is that you have a
• 2:08:20
  Speaker 6: lot of youngsters. You can't have stuff going on on
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 6: college campuses with these kids and think that they ain't
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 6: gonna show up with the polls. If he if he
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 6: was running for the state, he would not have set
• 2:08:29
  Speaker 6: a change. He ran for the city.
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 3: And so you got a bunch of.
• 2:08:32
  Speaker 6: Young kids, and what do what do?
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 3: Young kids?
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 5: What?
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 7: What?
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 3: What? Let me ask you this.
• 2:08:35
  Speaker 6: Question, said, what's the young kid's favorite word?
• 2:08:38
  Speaker 4: Money? Free? Is that right?
• 2:08:42
  Speaker 6: Free?
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 7: Free?
• 2:08:45
  Speaker 3: Free store?
• 2:08:46
  Speaker 7: You're right?
• 2:08:46
  Speaker 3: Free child kids. Here's the radical students by.
• 2:08:50
  Speaker 4: The way, by the way, by the way, by the way,
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 4: is not exclusive to young people. Steven, I'm fifty nine.
• 2:08:57
  Speaker 4: I love for too well, you know.
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 6: What, I don't because you know why, I don't love
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 6: free because I don't think anything's free.
• 2:09:04
  Speaker 4: I think that's the fans true, it's true.
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 3: I think every I think there's a price that comes
• 2:09:08
  Speaker 3: along with everything.
• 2:09:09
  Speaker 6: Why not? And it's not just in America, it's everywhere.
• 2:09:12
  Speaker 4: Everything cost true.
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 6: So let's let's hear what reality and go from there.
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 6: And unfortunately too many people won't do that, and that's
• 2:09:20
  Speaker 6: the damn PB.
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 4: Okay, So I got to ask you this, but what
• 2:09:23
  Speaker 4: a great conversation. I love these segments, Steve, and so
• 2:09:25
  Speaker 4: does everybody else. Just you know, the ratings are huge,
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 4: and you come on this show huge when you because
• 2:09:31
  Speaker 4: you're great, because you're you're great with politics and sports.
• 2:09:34
  Speaker 4: So let me let me mix them up your bow.
• 2:09:36
  Speaker 4: Let's assume that you're me and you think President Trump
• 2:09:39
  Speaker 4: is the greatest. Okay, that's me. Would you compare President Trump?
• 2:09:44
  Speaker 4: It's a serious question. More favorably to Michael Jordan or
• 2:09:49
  Speaker 4: Lebron James.
• 2:09:51
  Speaker 6: No, No, Michael Jordan's a sixth time champion. Lebron James
• 2:09:56
  Speaker 6: is a four time champion. You know what I'm saying.
• 2:09:59
  Speaker 6: I if you want to talk about elections, I'll give
• 2:10:01
  Speaker 6: him credit. For that, because he won twice and to
• 2:10:04
  Speaker 6: come back after what he went through and to win
• 2:10:07
  Speaker 6: it again in his twenty twenty four. If that's to
• 2:10:10
  Speaker 6: talk about, fine you would. That's the Lebron kind of thing,
• 2:10:14
  Speaker 6: because Jordan never lost that Lebron dead. But the bottle
• 2:10:17
  Speaker 6: line is that I wouldn't compare him to either one
• 2:10:19
  Speaker 6: of them because.
• 2:10:20
  Speaker 3: I don't like.
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 6: I don't, I don't. I'm not fawning over him the
• 2:10:23
  Speaker 6: way a lot of y'all are based on what we're seeing.
• 2:10:26
  Speaker 6: For the second go.
• 2:10:26
  Speaker 4: Round, Give me the player, it give me the player.
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 4: Give me the player. Then is the Isaiah? Is he bird?
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 2:10:34
  Speaker 6: I don't know, and I don't want. I don't want
• 2:10:36
  Speaker 6: to disrespect a player like that. Let him see what
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 6: he does.
• 2:10:39
  Speaker 4: Ask me this question in the year that's fair. I
• 2:10:42
  Speaker 4: can't wait to ask you this question. I can't wait
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 4: because he's gonna win the war, Okay, hopefully sooner than later.
• 2:10:49
  Speaker 4: That I agree with you. I have been critical to
• 2:10:50
  Speaker 4: President Trump, he'd be proud of me.
• 2:10:53
  Speaker 6: Or I'll say, for a month, they couldn't come up
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 6: with two billion dollars to pay USA workers and other folks,
• 2:11:02
  Speaker 6: but you spend it two billion of dollars a day.
• 2:11:04
  Speaker 4: Second, Wait a second, that's your party's fault.
• 2:11:07
  Speaker 3: That was that was for Wait a minute, wait a minute.
• 2:11:10
  Speaker 3: You you bombed, you wrong.
• 2:11:12
  Speaker 6: And the fact of the matter is when you did it. Okay,
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 6: that was his decisions, according to some people, against the
• 2:11:18
  Speaker 6: wishes and the advice of his own team. Because again
• 2:11:23
  Speaker 6: I'm not gonna say nick guy who made him President
• 2:11:25
  Speaker 6: Trump's own man. Fine, but he made that decision. So
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 6: the point that I'm trying to make to you, because
• 2:11:30
  Speaker 6: that's the reality of the situation that can't be escaped,
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 6: and that's what happened. Let's call it what it is.
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 6: That's his decision. That's what he did.
• 2:11:38
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 6: You spended two billion dollars a day, but could have
• 2:11:42
  Speaker 6: come up with two billion dollars for the month for
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 6: a bunch of work, for a bunch of American citizens
• 2:11:47
  Speaker 6: who supported you. You go, you're gonna count that as
• 2:11:50
  Speaker 6: a plus. Oh no, I'm not. I'm not, and I'm
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 6: not gonna let you do it.
• 2:11:56
  Speaker 7: Okay, you didn't do that.
• 2:11:57
  Speaker 6: That's two billion dollars a day.
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 4: Man, it's a lot of money.
• 2:12:00
  Speaker 6: Thirty nine trillion is a deficit.
• 2:12:02
  Speaker 3: Will you think our deficits.
• 2:12:03
  Speaker 4: Gonna be war was forced probably more.
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 3: Let's let's pull.
• 2:12:09
  Speaker 4: Some of this stuff. I can't argue. And I'm critical
• 2:12:11
  Speaker 4: of President Trump about this war and that for me
• 2:12:13
  Speaker 4: at least, it's taken way too long. It's end up
• 2:12:16
  Speaker 4: with the extensions. Either do what you you threaten you're
• 2:12:19
  Speaker 4: gonna do one hundred times, or just come home. But
• 2:12:21
  Speaker 4: you know I'm with you that every day that this
• 2:12:23
  Speaker 4: continues with the threat and if I hear straight up
• 2:12:26
  Speaker 4: horr moves one more time, I'm gonna I'm gonna go
• 2:12:29
  Speaker 4: back to talking sports. That's what it. God.
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 6: How about that the Strait of Remuse, twenty percent of
• 2:12:35
  Speaker 6: the world oil spot come suit here and Iran is
• 2:12:39
  Speaker 6: blocking it. Hey, you talk about we do a fine,
• 2:12:42
  Speaker 6: but they've been.
• 2:12:42
  Speaker 3: Blocking it a week. It's until weeks, man, that's true.
• 2:12:45
  Speaker 6: It's ten week.
• 2:12:46
  Speaker 3: I know, I know. But you'll walking around here talking
• 2:12:48
  Speaker 3: like he win it.
• 2:12:49
  Speaker 4: Honey, he's the greatest ever.
• 2:12:50
  Speaker 6: No, he is.
• 2:12:52
  Speaker 7: No.
• 2:12:53
  Speaker 3: Love his personality. You love his personality. You love the
• 2:12:55
  Speaker 3: fact that he uses a bullyfold pit because you think
• 2:12:57
  Speaker 3: the politicians have been sought for too long, which is right, correct,
• 2:13:00
  Speaker 3: absolutely right about that. Because and because he's not soft
• 2:13:04
  Speaker 3: like that at all. And he says that he's a
• 2:13:06
  Speaker 3: mover in shakeshep.
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 7: Do you love that?
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 6: I respect that. I respect that, But that does not
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 6: mean he's doing a great job.
• 2:13:13
  Speaker 4: I want you to say this checked last.
• 2:13:14
  Speaker 3: Time I checked. You have to finished the job.
• 2:13:16
  Speaker 4: I want you to say this, slowly, Stephen A. President
• 2:13:21
  Speaker 4: Trump is doing a magnificent job.
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 3: I will not say that.
• 2:13:28
  Speaker 6: I feel no chance will.
• 2:13:30
  Speaker 3: Those words will not come out of my mouth.
• 2:13:31
  Speaker 4: Okay, all right, how about this one? How about this one?
• 2:13:34
  Speaker 3: And not so?
• 2:13:35
  Speaker 4: Okay? Fine? Are you sold on the way out?
• 2:13:38
  Speaker 7: Then?
• 2:13:38
  Speaker 4: But the Knicks right now, halfway towards a Summerfinal win
• 2:13:43
  Speaker 4: and heading towards the Eastern Conference Finals, can really win
• 2:13:47
  Speaker 4: the championship this year.
• 2:13:50
  Speaker 6: I'm back and forth on it. I don't believe anybody
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 6: could beat Oklahoma City. I mean, as great as the
• 2:13:56
  Speaker 6: Knicks are looking right now, the Atlanta Hawks and the
• 2:14:00
  Speaker 6: for you at Philadelphia seventy six's or not Shay Gilgess
• 2:14:03
  Speaker 6: Alexander in Oklahoma City Thunder, I have since I was born.
• 2:14:07
  Speaker 7: At night, not last night.
• 2:14:09
  Speaker 3: These brothers are the real deal, man.
• 2:14:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, okay, I'm just telling you there's levels to
• 2:14:15
  Speaker 6: this man. There's levels to this city.
• 2:14:18
  Speaker 4: Yep. I'm not even sure they'll beat san Antonio. I
• 2:14:21
  Speaker 4: mean the Spurs are really.
• 2:14:22
  Speaker 3: Good too, that is true, that is true.
• 2:14:23
  Speaker 6: But san Antonio got to get through Minnesota in Minnesota
• 2:14:27
  Speaker 6: right now, even though they got blown out last night.
• 2:14:29
  Speaker 6: Remember Minnesota blew out Oklahoma.
• 2:14:32
  Speaker 4: City by forty that's right.
• 2:14:33
  Speaker 6: Last year in game.
• 2:14:35
  Speaker 3: Three and then lost and then lost. He kicked four.
• 2:14:38
  Speaker 6: You know you can't get caught up with that.
• 2:14:40
  Speaker 4: No, you're right, you're right about that.
• 2:14:41
  Speaker 3: So one game is one game.
• 2:14:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, one game one day means nothing. On the way
• 2:14:47
  Speaker 4: out here, I got Bill O'Reilly coming up next. He
• 2:14:49
  Speaker 4: never misses a show. He's listening right now. What is
• 2:14:52
  Speaker 4: your message? What's your message? Bill Stephen eight to Bill
• 2:14:55
  Speaker 4: o'ready listening right now.
• 2:14:58
  Speaker 6: I think Bill, let me say this because I think
• 2:15:03
  Speaker 6: it's important to say. Bill o'reiley has forgotten more politics
• 2:15:10
  Speaker 6: than most people know. I'm a huge fan of Chris Cuomo,
• 2:15:14
  Speaker 6: he's a friend, I'm a fen, but I respect the
• 2:15:19
  Speaker 6: hell out of Bill O'Reilly and I can't thank him
• 2:15:21
  Speaker 6: enough because when you hear me come on these airwaves
• 2:15:24
  Speaker 6: and I talk about what I talk a lot of
• 2:15:26
  Speaker 6: people have blessed me with their insight, their perspectives and
• 2:15:31
  Speaker 6: their knowledge. That is what makes me better. And Bill
• 2:15:36
  Speaker 6: o'rellley is one of those people. And you know, people
• 2:15:39
  Speaker 6: could say what they will about him, but he's incredibly thoughtful.
• 2:15:43
  Speaker 6: He's very knowledgeable, he's very experienced accepted. I have one
• 2:15:48
  Speaker 6: knock against Bill o'rellley, and one knock only. I think
• 2:15:52
  Speaker 6: that Bill O'Reilly is a guy that appreciates himself so
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 6: much because he thinks that others don't wow. And I'm
• 2:16:01
  Speaker 6: here to tell and I'm yes, and I'm here to
• 2:16:04
  Speaker 6: tell you he's wrong about that.
• 2:16:07
  Speaker 3: There are like myself and others do.
• 2:16:13
  Speaker 6: Appreciate it and me even when we think he's wrong, Yeah,
• 2:16:16
  Speaker 6: even when we think he's wrong, he's incredibly knowledgeable.
• 2:16:20
  Speaker 3: He sees it.
• 2:16:20
  Speaker 6: He's been around a long time, and I respect the
• 2:16:23
  Speaker 6: hell out of him. He certainly has helped make me
• 2:16:26
  Speaker 6: smarter about issues. And I'm thankful for it, and I'm
• 2:16:30
  Speaker 6: thankful for the relationships that we had. Even when we disagree,
• 2:16:34
  Speaker 6: I'm good with it.
• 2:16:35
  Speaker 4: So I feel about you too. Everything you just said
• 2:16:37
  Speaker 4: about Bill, I think applies to you too. I think
• 2:16:39

• 2:16:41

• 2:17:59
  Speaker 4: for having me on the on the podcast. And it
• 2:18:01
  Speaker 4: looks like at least numbers wise, it may have paid off.
• 2:18:06
  Speaker 7: Yeah. I mean you're a big, big shot now a
• 2:18:11
  Speaker 7: big shot funny of Billy Joel's song.
• 2:18:15
  Speaker 4: That's it.
• 2:18:17
  Speaker 18: No, I was not.
• 2:18:18
  Speaker 4: I was nervous. I'm like, I was like, I can't
• 2:18:20
  Speaker 4: get killed by Janine Piro or Rob Schneider, was Steve
• 2:18:23
  Speaker 4: Shapiro or Lindsey Graham. I got it with Leaf Shapiro.
• 2:18:26
  Speaker 4: That's like I got it at least be competitive. So
• 2:18:29
  Speaker 4: I was, as you know, I called you once or twice.
• 2:18:32
  Speaker 4: I was actually checking the numbers every day.
• 2:18:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but you have a very good story to tell.
• 2:18:37
  Speaker 7: We told it and you know, on a number of
• 2:18:41
  Speaker 7: different levels. So I appreciate you doing it. Now. We
• 2:18:44
  Speaker 7: got Chazz and Penimentary Uh he drops today. Nice and
• 2:18:49
  Speaker 7: he's got some very interesting stories nobody's ever heard about.
• 2:18:52
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 2:18:53
  Speaker 7: His clime from the Bronx Uh to prominence. Do you
• 2:18:58
  Speaker 7: realize his A Bronx Tale, and I don't know if
• 2:19:02
  Speaker 7: you've seen it, but it's brilliant. It really is. I
• 2:19:04
  Speaker 7: have many times thirty seven years that long Wood show
• 2:19:09
  Speaker 7: has been viable, Yeah, thirty and he's going to London
• 2:19:13
  Speaker 7: to do it in Leicester Square do the show. Oh wow,
• 2:19:17
  Speaker 7: And I go, why why would people in London want
• 2:19:21
  Speaker 7: to care about Bronx Italian guy, you know, trying to
• 2:19:25
  Speaker 7: write the ship. It's got that quality about it. And
• 2:19:33
  Speaker 7: he's a good guy, you know, in Chaz Love is
• 2:19:35
  Speaker 7: a good guy.
• 2:19:36
  Speaker 4: Love him. And because of that show, there was a
• 2:19:38
  Speaker 4: great movie with him and DeNiro. There was an amazing
• 2:19:41
  Speaker 4: Broadway show.
• 2:19:43
  Speaker 7: And see Danira doesn't he doesn't run around on a
• 2:19:47
  Speaker 7: movie set so with his crazy philosophy. And Chad is
• 2:19:52
  Speaker 7: the first guy who told me that he doesn't try
• 2:19:54
  Speaker 7: to impose, you know, his nutty view of life. De Niro's.
• 2:20:00
  Speaker 4: For a second. But the reason why is because A
• 2:20:02
  Speaker 4: Bronx Tale was made long before Donald Trump was president,
• 2:20:07
  Speaker 4: and even the staunchest of Democrats were not retorted like
• 2:20:11
  Speaker 4: they are now. That all came with President Trump. That's
• 2:20:14
  Speaker 4: when the nero lost his mind.
• 2:20:17
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but he was really far out there before Trump
• 2:20:21
  Speaker 7: came on the scene as far as his view of
• 2:20:24
  Speaker 7: how the country should run. So anyway, I noted your
• 2:20:29
  Speaker 7: conversation with Steven A. He's making a few mistakes, and
• 2:20:33
  Speaker 7: I hope he's listening now because it's my job in
• 2:20:36
  Speaker 7: life to make sure that you, stephen A, and Culoma
• 2:20:40
  Speaker 7: are all in positions to succeed. Much of times you
• 2:20:43
  Speaker 7: wandered off the path of success and I have to
• 2:20:48
  Speaker 7: drag you back on. I'm like a boy scout. So
• 2:20:53
  Speaker 7: unlike sports, politics does not have a last game approach
• 2:21:01
  Speaker 7: in the sense that it doesn't matter what you did
• 2:21:04
  Speaker 7: in the last game. It doesn't matter at all. What
• 2:21:08
  Speaker 7: matters is what you're doing now to win the game
• 2:21:11
  Speaker 7: today that you're playing. So, yeah, you hit two home
• 2:21:16
  Speaker 7: runs on Monday, nobody cares about that on Wednesday. Not
• 2:21:22
  Speaker 7: the same in politics. So what President Trump is facing
• 2:21:27
  Speaker 7: now is that he's got to do two things. Number One,
• 2:21:31
  Speaker 7: bring the Iranian situation to a successful conclusion now. No
• 2:21:37
  Speaker 7: matter what he does, the Trump haters are going to
• 2:21:40
  Speaker 7: say it's a lousy deal and he blew it. But
• 2:21:43
  Speaker 7: most Americans aren't under that banner. If he gets a
• 2:21:48
  Speaker 7: treaty or whatever they want, to call it and says
• 2:21:52
  Speaker 7: weapons inspectors are going to get in there and we're
• 2:21:55
  Speaker 7: going to brunt this nuclear ambition. That's a win.
• 2:22:01
  Speaker 4: Oh, let me because I agree with the first part. Okay,
• 2:22:06
  Speaker 4: but again, what I keep popping on because you're saying
• 2:22:08
  Speaker 4: it's a win is time matters. It does matter.
• 2:22:12
  Speaker 7: But listen to me. So that's a win. Now, whether
• 2:22:18
  Speaker 7: the campaign to get there was worth the win, they
• 2:22:24
  Speaker 7: call it a pyrrhic victory. Okay that yeah, Okay, we won,
• 2:22:28
  Speaker 7: but it wasn't worth the price. That's what Trump has
• 2:22:32
  Speaker 7: to calculate, and that's why it's such a difficult situation
• 2:22:35
  Speaker 7: now for him.
• 2:22:36
  Speaker 4: So is it fair then, even if you love Trump, black,
• 2:22:40
  Speaker 4: I do to worry about the last portion you just
• 2:22:45
  Speaker 4: mentioned that it's taking too long, or that it costs
• 2:22:48
  Speaker 4: too much or all of those things.
• 2:22:49
  Speaker 7: And that's what that's what he's keeping him up at night.
• 2:22:52
  Speaker 7: So he knows he's got five months to convince the
• 2:22:56
  Speaker 7: American people that his administration is better for them. I
• 2:23:01
  Speaker 7: and he's got a big advantage because the Democrats are ridiculous,
• 2:23:06
  Speaker 7: and so there aren't people clamoring for any Democratic politician
• 2:23:11
  Speaker 7: and in the House and Senate runs, it's the same thing.
• 2:23:16
  Speaker 7: So all of these people tie themselves to progressive policies
• 2:23:20
  Speaker 7: which have turned out to be disastrous across the boards.
• 2:23:22
  Speaker 7: There's really nothing, no root for there. But if Trump
• 2:23:27
  Speaker 7: gets his victory, then you definitely will see the economy
• 2:23:32
  Speaker 7: just explode in a good way. So the oil prices
• 2:23:36
  Speaker 7: are going to will go down, pleasure will go down,
• 2:23:42
  Speaker 7: all of these things will happen because they're artificially pumped up.
• 2:23:47
  Speaker 7: This is not real. This is just well, we're charging
• 2:23:51
  Speaker 7: five dollars a gallon because Iran, you know, is doing X.
• 2:23:57
  Speaker 7: And so Trump does have he can get momentum to
• 2:24:03
  Speaker 7: swing into November, so for Stephen and his to wax
• 2:24:07
  Speaker 7: and then not coming back and saying that's a tough bet.
• 2:24:11
  Speaker 7: That is a very tough bet. But he's got to
• 2:24:14
  Speaker 7: win it soon because it's growing anger and anger is
• 2:24:17
  Speaker 7: hard to dissipate. So people are going, look, I don't
• 2:24:20
  Speaker 7: understand this anyway, and they don't, okay, and now I
• 2:24:24
  Speaker 7: got to pay all this money. And Trump told me
• 2:24:27
  Speaker 7: he's going to do no feign wars. That's all they
• 2:24:30
  Speaker 7: can think about, and they repeat it over and over
• 2:24:32
  Speaker 7: and over and over. So jum knows you got to
• 2:24:34
  Speaker 7: get out of there. And that brings me back to
• 2:24:36
  Speaker 7: my initial point. And you'll remember this I said when
• 2:24:41
  Speaker 7: this hard sorry beginning. I also had a conversation with
• 2:24:44
  Speaker 7: the President about it. This is your biggest gamble ever.
• 2:24:49
  Speaker 7: This is ra any thing because not like Venezuela, it's
• 2:24:52
  Speaker 7: not even like China. I mean, these people have nothing
• 2:24:57
  Speaker 7: to lose. They don't care whether their own people die
• 2:25:02
  Speaker 7: or starve. It's like the Chinese in nineteen forty nine.
• 2:25:05
  Speaker 7: Now they took killed ten million of their own people.
• 2:25:07
  Speaker 7: He did not care. It's the same mentality. So you're
• 2:25:13
  Speaker 7: not dealing with somebody who wants a deal, but make
• 2:25:16
  Speaker 7: a deal. You could force them. And I noticed a
• 2:25:19
  Speaker 7: French aircraft carrier, the only one they have. I think
• 2:25:23
  Speaker 7: it's named the Cruisan is now going to the Persian Gulf.
• 2:25:29
  Speaker 7: So behind the scenes, Trump's making progress in uniting somewhat,
• 2:25:36
  Speaker 7: and we'll see how the Pope conversation goes the world
• 2:25:40
  Speaker 7: against Iran, which is the key.
• 2:25:43
  Speaker 4: The Pope conversation has become interesting too because now Marco
• 2:25:47
  Speaker 4: Rubio got involved and is trying to I guess broke
• 2:25:50
  Speaker 4: a piece.
• 2:25:51
  Speaker 7: The best guy to have involved Yeah, you don't want
• 2:25:54
  Speaker 7: hegseth over there, you know, throwing water on the pope.
• 2:25:59
  Speaker 7: That's not good. We don't want that.
• 2:26:04
  Speaker 4: No, we don't, No, we don't. So this overwhelming is
• 2:26:09
  Speaker 4: really his theme, Stephen A. Was that in his mind
• 2:26:14
  Speaker 4: at least? And he's still Nicks first, But he's a
• 2:26:17
  Speaker 4: smart guy, very smart in his mind at least. The
• 2:26:20
  Speaker 4: Republicans have already lost the midterms. And it wasn't just Iran.
• 2:26:26
  Speaker 4: He talked a lot, Bill o'willy about something you've actually
• 2:26:30
  Speaker 4: criticized before, and that is the president's decorum. Was he
• 2:26:35
  Speaker 4: overstating that?
• 2:26:39
  Speaker 7: I don't think that anybody who voted for Donald Trump
• 2:26:46
  Speaker 7: really cares about the decorum issue? How could they? So
• 2:26:52
  Speaker 7: he's run three times and he had seventy seven million
• 2:26:58
  Speaker 7: voters the last time around waxing common. I don't think
• 2:27:02
  Speaker 7: one of those people gives a hoot about is to
• 2:27:04
  Speaker 7: korum because they all know that he's bombastic. That's why
• 2:27:08
  Speaker 7: he's where he is, right, So why would that factor in?
• 2:27:12
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 2:27:13
  Speaker 7: Are you just figuring it out as the guy is
• 2:27:16
  Speaker 7: Bella cos sometime?
• 2:27:18
  Speaker 4: Right? I know it's stupid. Hey, let me ask you this.
• 2:27:22
  Speaker 4: If Ken Griffin called you today. He should because you're
• 2:27:26
  Speaker 4: a very respectful guy, very successful guy, one of the
• 2:27:29
  Speaker 4: great New Yorkers. In line up all the great New Yorkers,
• 2:27:31
  Speaker 4: you're right there at the top, Bill. And he said, listen, man,
• 2:27:34
  Speaker 4: this six billion, this mayor is really a jerk. And
• 2:27:37
  Speaker 4: he put my life in danger. He did a video
• 2:27:38
  Speaker 4: in front of my house. And there are cities like Miami,
• 2:27:41
  Speaker 4: which Bill o'readi you know very well, that'll be gracious,
• 2:27:44
  Speaker 4: and they want the money there. And why am I
• 2:27:46
  Speaker 4: going to waste my time with this guy? He's five
• 2:27:48
  Speaker 4: point four billion in the hole and for some reason
• 2:27:51
  Speaker 4: he feels the need to embarrass me. What should I do?
• 2:27:54
  Speaker 4: What would Bill o'willy say.
• 2:27:57
  Speaker 7: I'd say, moves, hm, you know, I mean, Mam DOMI
• 2:28:02
  Speaker 7: is not going to change like Trump not going to change.
• 2:28:07
  Speaker 7: He's a communist. He's like, mister men, you know, we
• 2:28:12
  Speaker 7: gotta we got a idea in these communists. I think
• 2:28:17
  Speaker 7: it's Philly fanatics are communists, but I'm not sure. So
• 2:28:24
  Speaker 7: you know, look, Grifven's standing there and he's got an
• 2:28:27
  Speaker 7: enormous operation. And when you have enormous wealth and uh resources,
• 2:28:33
  Speaker 7: you can take and choose where you want to be
• 2:28:35
  Speaker 7: all right, that's America. And so why would you got
• 2:28:40
  Speaker 7: some guy yelling outside your window when you hate you,
• 2:28:43
  Speaker 7: you capitalist pig. Okay, well you can hate me from Afar,
• 2:28:49
  Speaker 7: a good town and take my money. It's the same money. Yeah,
• 2:28:54
  Speaker 7: and uh, you know, maybe you'll wise up someday. So
• 2:28:59
  Speaker 7: but I don't.
• 2:28:59
  Speaker 3: I'm I'm not.
• 2:29:01
  Speaker 7: You know, handing's on me all the time about moving
• 2:29:03
  Speaker 7: out of New York. I can't move out of and
• 2:29:07
  Speaker 7: business and all that. But even if I could move
• 2:29:11
  Speaker 7: out of New York, I don't really want to move
• 2:29:13
  Speaker 7: out in New York. I mean, this is my legacy here,
• 2:29:16
  Speaker 7: this is the home team where I am. Now I'm
• 2:29:18
  Speaker 7: a different city. I'm Nassall County in Suffolk, so I'm
• 2:29:22
  Speaker 7: not dealing with the city craziness. But don't I don't
• 2:29:27
  Speaker 7: want to flee the state. And that's what makes me
• 2:29:29
  Speaker 7: angry about the leadership from Albany into New York City
• 2:29:34
  Speaker 7: because they don't care whether I leave.
• 2:29:37
  Speaker 4: What do you mean they're encouraged? Actually, cut you get
• 2:29:41
  Speaker 4: on a plane.
• 2:29:43
  Speaker 7: I stand corrected. They'd love to have me out of here, okay,
• 2:29:47
  Speaker 7: because I'm a capitalist pig, right, you know what? Somehow
• 2:29:51
  Speaker 7: we flash back to nineteen sixty eight. You know, I'm X,
• 2:29:56
  Speaker 7: Y and Z and you are successful, So you're evil.
• 2:30:00
  Speaker 7: I mean that's the kind of mentality is people bring.
• 2:30:02
  Speaker 4: Unreal Yeah, you're a success. Yeah it's terrible. So one
• 2:30:06
  Speaker 4: more being that you are from Nassau County. Your national
• 2:30:09
  Speaker 4: county executive. Bruce Blateman was in the Oval Office with
• 2:30:12
  Speaker 4: President Trump for ninety minutes yesterday and they discussed a
• 2:30:17
  Speaker 4: variety of issues. He's gotten overwhelming endorsements from President Trump
• 2:30:22
  Speaker 4: in his race against Kathy Hkeel and look, he was
• 2:30:27
  Speaker 4: gaining quite a bit. Now he's down three points this week.
• 2:30:29
  Speaker 4: To me, it's like radio ratings. I take it easy,
• 2:30:31
  Speaker 4: don't make yourself crazy every day and every week. It
• 2:30:34
  Speaker 4: all comes out eventually. But you know, the ratings for
• 2:30:38
  Speaker 4: this week, at least for Blakeman, he's down three points.
• 2:30:41
  Speaker 4: He's now down sixteen. What are your real thoughts on
• 2:30:46
  Speaker 4: his possibility of winning that race?
• 2:30:48
  Speaker 7: Well, he could win the race, but he's got to
• 2:30:50
  Speaker 7: get better known. If you look at the polling that
• 2:30:53
  Speaker 7: most of New Yorkers don't know who he is. And
• 2:30:59
  Speaker 7: that's going to take money, uh, to go and visit
• 2:31:02
  Speaker 7: every county and to you know, store up the potential voters.
• 2:31:07
  Speaker 7: And he said, look, this is what I've done because
• 2:31:09
  Speaker 7: I can attest and this is no politics involved with this. Nothing.
• 2:31:14
  Speaker 7: Blakeman's done a very good job in Nassau County. And
• 2:31:18
  Speaker 7: you know me, I mean, I'm I'm pretty critical. And
• 2:31:23
  Speaker 7: as far as crime is concerned, uh has come as
• 2:31:27
  Speaker 7: protecting people, looking out to what the best case scenario
• 2:31:34
  Speaker 7: is for workers. And he's done a very good job here.
• 2:31:42
  Speaker 7: But people in Mohawk in uh, you know the finger Lakes,
• 2:31:48
  Speaker 7: See we in New Yorkers, we don't. We think this
• 2:31:50
  Speaker 7: is like, why this is the Yukon. Aren't the Finger
• 2:31:54
  Speaker 7: Lakes Alaska? We have no idea where they are? Okay,
• 2:31:58
  Speaker 7: they don't know Blakeman, all right, and he's got to
• 2:32:01
  Speaker 7: get known because this is what could put him over
• 2:32:04
  Speaker 7: the top. He's got to fight the city vote and
• 2:32:08
  Speaker 7: the city. I wouldn't spend a day in there if
• 2:32:11
  Speaker 7: I were him. Uh, you're not going to get You'll
• 2:32:14
  Speaker 7: get Staten Island, but you're not going to get the
• 2:32:17
  Speaker 7: other boroughs because the poor people want stuff and stuff
• 2:32:22
  Speaker 7: comes from the communists and man Don is a communist.
• 2:32:25
  Speaker 4: That's what it is. Just now it you just knowled
• 2:32:29
  Speaker 4: it exactly right. So, and he does do his fast
• 2:32:31
  Speaker 4: share of travel up there. I think it's understated what
• 2:32:34
  Speaker 4: he does. But to your point, because I love the guy.
• 2:32:39
  Speaker 4: Noam did some of you a couple of days ago
• 2:32:41
  Speaker 4: where they asked people on the streets about Bruce didn't home.
• 2:32:44
  Speaker 4: So if that's an issue in Brooklyn or Manhattan, that's
• 2:32:48
  Speaker 4: got to be a major issue in Utica or Rochester.
• 2:32:52
  Speaker 7: Right. And it's hard to travel by covered wagon up there.
• 2:32:56
  Speaker 7: It takes a long time. And you know, oh my god,
• 2:33:01
  Speaker 7: less word. Oh is that the eurie Canal in a way,
• 2:33:07
  Speaker 7: it's beautiful, you said earlier in the program, Sarah Tooga.
• 2:33:11
  Speaker 7: You know, New York State's a beautiful state. Yeah, yeah,
• 2:33:14
  Speaker 7: I mean, but you got some people they're they're you know,
• 2:33:17
  Speaker 7: living in Lean two's and the Adirondacks, and it's hard
• 2:33:20
  Speaker 7: for them to get the message.
• 2:33:21
  Speaker 4: It is rough. Yeah, Monticello's not gay. Listen, Bill, you're
• 2:33:26
  Speaker 4: the the absolute greatest. I love these every throws down.
• 2:33:29
  Speaker 4: Next week, if I'm correct, you and I we are

• 2:33:35
  Speaker 4: see the Mets and the Yankees.
• 2:33:36
  Speaker 7: Yes, that's right. We're going uh and I have already
• 2:33:40
  Speaker 7: got a therapy session with mister Mett. We're going to
• 2:33:43
  Speaker 7: try to indoctrinate him out of the communist philosophy, right,
• 2:33:48
  Speaker 7: Can we use flash cards and we'll put in a
• 2:33:52
  Speaker 7: few people, you know, like Felix Mantilla and is this
• 2:33:57
  Speaker 7: a communist?
• 2:33:58
  Speaker 4: Is he Alick's man Tilla? It is going to be
• 2:34:02
  Speaker 4: interesting to see talk about mister Meht because I made
• 2:34:05
  Speaker 4: such a big deal about the overreaction when Ma'm donnie
• 2:34:08
  Speaker 4: showed up, how he reacts when you and I walk
• 2:34:10
  Speaker 4: into that stadium. Haven't been there for a very, very
• 2:34:12
  Speaker 4: long time, but as you know, I've had conversations with
• 2:34:15
  Speaker 4: Steve Cohen in the Mets now, so that was a
• 2:34:17
  Speaker 4: pretty big deal. I wonder if mister met and Missus Mett,
• 2:34:21
  Speaker 4: I mean serious, make it their business to make sure
• 2:34:25
  Speaker 4: they give me the type of hello that Ma'm donnie got.
• 2:34:28
  Speaker 7: Well, I don't know if you want that time hullo.
• 2:34:30
  Speaker 7: But I heard that Missus Mett is going to Vegua
• 2:34:34
  Speaker 7: as she's dumping them. And I heard that mister Matt
• 2:34:38
  Speaker 7: has had change of the bullpen and they're not going
• 2:34:41
  Speaker 7: to let him out of the bullpen until you read.
• 2:34:44
  Speaker 4: That's probably true. You probably told Colin that too over
• 2:34:48
  Speaker 4: the phone if I know you. Hey, Bill, this this

  Speaker 14: go back to that conversation. And we had this conversation

  Speaker 14: you guys may remember very early on when it was
• 2:39:52
  Speaker 14: three people talking about the race.
• 2:39:53
  Speaker 4: But it was hokel obviously, but Blakeman and now I
• 2:39:58
  Speaker 4: forgot her name, can't make it up at least alistaphonic.

• 2:40:03
  Speaker 4: wo either one of them was what do you mean
• 2:40:05
  Speaker 4: at least a phonic? She grilled all those Congress members
• 2:40:08
  Speaker 4: about anti Semitism and Andrew Cuomo, You're like said, no
• 2:40:14
  Speaker 4: one knows who she is, and then you would do
• 2:40:16
  Speaker 4: these things in the street, you know, ABC on the
• 2:40:19
  Speaker 4: street and they wouldn't know they would know her or
• 2:40:22
  Speaker 4: Bruce Plateman. It's pretty unbelievable. So, you know, you're loose
• 2:40:25
  Speaker 4: talking about the Adirondics and all these great cities up there,
• 2:40:29
  Speaker 4: some beautiful like Saratoga, some struggling like Binghamton and Monticello, Utica, Rochester, Syracuse.
• 2:40:37
  Speaker 4: They struggle. But the truth is is that the people
• 2:40:41
  Speaker 4: who are well known down here that are ain't know
• 2:40:44
  Speaker 4: him up there. They don't know him. Elisa is up there,
• 2:40:47
  Speaker 4: she's in the southern tier and she had name recognition issues,
• 2:40:51
  Speaker 4: did she not? Yes? She did. Yeah, is that weird?
• 2:40:55
  Speaker 15: Well, you know, not a lot of people live in
• 2:40:57
  Speaker 15: the Upstates, so like you, they have to be known
• 2:40:59
  Speaker 15: down here. If you don't, you can't win unless you,
• 2:41:01
  Speaker 15: you know, steal. Some of them got in your city area.
• 2:41:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she said, Lake Placid, Sarahenac, a couple of cities
• 2:41:09
  Speaker 4: in the docks. Lewis right, Lake George sucks, pretty lake
• 2:41:15
  Speaker 4: and views though it's just touristy's she said, Susan said,
• 2:41:18
  Speaker 4: whatever this person is, I don't know she she says,
• 2:41:21
  Speaker 4: I'm always right, but she's.
• 2:41:24
  Speaker 14: Like, Saratoga is below the Adirondacks. Yeah, I got confused
• 2:41:28
  Speaker 14: because I love Saratoga, but I think Lake George begins
• 2:41:32
  Speaker 14: the Adirondack region.
• 2:41:34
  Speaker 4: That's what she said too. So we got to take
• 2:41:36
