Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: This is Tom s'all, I'm seventeen.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Wr Well, we got a lot to get through this hour.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Now let's start with Wheel of Fortune. So there's a
- 0:18Speaker 2: woman from Connecticut who's the contestant on Wheel of Fortune.
- 0:22Speaker 2: Her name is Christina d J Dreamer jick but whatever
- 0:27Speaker 2: it is. But she's from Stanford, very nice looking, beautiful, energetic,
- 0:32Speaker 2: great personality. She's thirty four years old, she's engaged. And
- 0:38Speaker 2: last night she won a million dollars. You know, they
- 0:41Speaker 2: have this secret. You open the envelopes, see how much
- 0:44Speaker 2: you want if you get this puzzle. And Ryan Seacrest courses,
- 0:48Speaker 2: the host of Wheel of Fortune.
- 0:50Speaker 3: What happens if you win a million dollars?
- 0:53Speaker 2: I may be putting in my two weeks, but we
- 0:55Speaker 2: won't tell her that yet. Well, uh, she I thought
- 1:02Speaker 2: it was a pretty easy puzzle. You know, even I
- 1:04Speaker 2: could have solved it. But there was a not too
- 1:06Speaker 2: tough a puzzle and she got it right and she
- 1:08Speaker 2: won a million dollars.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Living things, that is the category. You'll have ten seconds
- 1:14Speaker 1: to try and solve it. Christina staring at me, good luck,
- 1:19Speaker 1: pack of coyotes.
- 1:33Speaker 2: Yeah, so she won a million dollars. Now she is engaged,
- 1:40Speaker 2: and apparently she never told her bo that she won
- 1:45Speaker 2: a million dollars. She kept it from him. Now you
- 1:48Speaker 2: see these headlines, it sounds like something's wrong with this relationship.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Why didn't she tell them? Well, you know they do film.
- 1:56Speaker 2: They record these Wheel of Fortune episodes way way months
- 2:01Speaker 2: in advance, and you're sworn to secrecy. You have to
- 2:06Speaker 2: sign a document and you might not get the million
- 2:08Speaker 2: dollars if you tell anybody. You have to sign this
- 2:11Speaker 2: agreement to keep it secret. And she did. Now they again,
- 2:15Speaker 2: they do these Wheel of fortunes months in advance. So
- 2:18Speaker 2: she signed the agreement and she didn't want to risk
- 2:20Speaker 2: losing the million dollars, so she didn't tell him. He
- 2:22Speaker 2: just found out she's one million dollars. So that's great.
- 2:26Speaker 2: She lives. Doesn't say where in Stanford. Single thirty four
- 2:30Speaker 2: could be Harvard Point. She got that look about her.
- 2:33Speaker 2: But that's great news. Now let's get two Business news.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Business news. All right, I'm not exactly Liz claiming here,
- 2:43Speaker 2: but a couple of things going on. Starbucks is having
- 2:47Speaker 2: real trouble. You know, they were having real trouble. Anyway,
- 2:51Speaker 2: they got rid of the CEO and they brought in
- 2:53Speaker 2: the CEO from Chipotle, which has been booming. No fast
- 2:57Speaker 2: food chain has gotten bigger, faster, done better than Chipotle,
- 3:02Speaker 2: so they got the Chipotle CEO to come over. He
- 3:05Speaker 2: thinks Starbucks needed a lot of change. So if you
- 3:08Speaker 2: notice every time you look at the Starbucks, they've closed
- 3:12Speaker 2: it down for two weeks to rebuild it, and they
- 3:13Speaker 2: all got this different look now. Instead of all these
- 3:16Speaker 2: different cases where they sell mugs and they sell coffee
- 3:19Speaker 2: makers and they sold again, it's just a long counter
- 3:22Speaker 2: and it's just coffee. He also streamlined the menu. Instead
- 3:26Speaker 2: of seventy five things, it's just the twenty most popular,
- 3:30Speaker 2: even the food that condensed it. So he's been doing that.
- 3:33Speaker 2: But apparently they're going to close lots of Starbucks, and
- 3:35Speaker 2: they start doing it without any warning. They're closing hundreds
- 3:40Speaker 2: and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds, four hundred stores around
- 3:43Speaker 2: the country. They're closing dozens right here in New York. Yeah,
- 3:47Speaker 2: fifty four coffee shops Starbucks. Fifty four are closing in
- 3:52Speaker 2: New York, and some in what you would think would
- 3:54Speaker 2: be prime locations Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Financial district,
- 3:58Speaker 2: Midtown Manhattan right over there, fifty second near sixth between
- 4:02Speaker 2: six and seven, that one's closing. They were underperforming, but
- 4:06Speaker 2: they just closed them just like that. You remember how
- 4:08Speaker 2: Starbucks would always tell you what a wonderful company they are,
- 4:11Speaker 2: how they take care of everybody, their employees are like family. Well,
- 4:16Speaker 2: these are closing stores no notice. People show up, the
- 4:19Speaker 2: stores closed, You're fired. That's it, you're gone. They'll just
- 4:22Speaker 2: literally put signs in the windows overnight. Didn't tell landlords,
- 4:25Speaker 2: didn't tell building managers. Newmark Retail vice chairman said there
- 4:31Speaker 2: was no warning, no heads up, and he explains, you know,
- 4:34Speaker 2: retail Tennis will always let you know, well in advance,
- 4:37Speaker 2: they'll reach out to the landlord and to negotiate concessions.
- 4:41Speaker 2: But this was quick. This was instant. It says, underperforming stores.
- 4:47Speaker 2: I mean this guy, I guess you gotta do that.
- 4:49Speaker 2: If you see it, always kind of cold about it.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Underperforming stores got to go. That's it. Now speaking to coffee,
- 4:58Speaker 2: Maxwell House, you know the name Maxwellhouse coffee. It's like
- 5:01Speaker 2: one of the oldest. It's very good coffee, but one
- 5:05Speaker 2: of the oldest. Even if you're eighty years old, you
- 5:08Speaker 2: remember those commercials as a kid. Maxwell House. They're changing
- 5:11Speaker 2: their name this doesn't sound good at all. They must
- 5:18Speaker 2: have hired the marketing team from a cracker barrel. Maxwellhouse
- 5:21Speaker 2: changing the name to Maxwell Apartment. No, I'm not kidding.
- 5:28Speaker 2: They're actually changing the name of the It's going to
- 5:30Speaker 2: be called Maxwell Apartment. This is the there's been one
- 5:34Speaker 2: hundred and thirty three years. One hundred and thirty three
- 5:37Speaker 2: years they were in Maxwell House. Now it's going to
- 5:38Speaker 2: be Maxwell Apartment. They say, we'll have the same taste, aroma, quality,
- 5:42Speaker 2: and ingredients. The rebrand is to represent the reality of
- 5:47Speaker 2: today's consumers. Why nearly a third of Americans are now
- 5:51Speaker 2: renting smaller places. They're not purchasing full size homes. The
- 5:56Speaker 2: coffee giant wants to reflect that with a rebrand. Two
- 6:00Speaker 2: thirds of American and adults drink coffee every day two thirds, yeah,
- 6:05Speaker 2: seventy percent, seventy five percent, and head of Coffee Marketing
- 6:13Speaker 2: said they tend to be younger, tend to live in apartments.
- 6:17Speaker 2: So Maxwell Apartment. That is the dumbest name. And I
- 6:20Speaker 2: get all right, let's just predict right now, this is
- 6:24Speaker 2: the next cracker barrel. They're going to have to change
- 6:26Speaker 2: it back. They're going to have to go back to
- 6:28Speaker 2: the old logo, the old name, and there it's supposed
- 6:32Speaker 2: to imply that if you're drinking Maxwell Apartment, it will
- 6:37Speaker 2: help you save more to buy a house more quickly.
- 6:41Speaker 2: What again, just we'll predict right now it's October two,
- 6:48Speaker 2: by December, by the end of the year, by January first,
- 6:51Speaker 2: the name will have to go back and again this
- 6:55Speaker 2: is the new Cracker Barrel. It's amazing. You know, people,
- 6:59Speaker 2: before you go out and hire these marketing companies, they
- 7:02Speaker 2: are the dumbest people we've ever seen, you know. Here
- 7:05Speaker 2: at iHeart, not just or but we got Power one
- 7:09Speaker 2: O five over, they got Z one hundred, you got
- 7:11Speaker 2: Light FM, you got the biggest radio stations in the world.
- 7:16Speaker 2: Upstairs is the Network where you got Sean Hannity and
- 7:18Speaker 2: Buck and Cley. The biggest advertising operation there is iHeart.
- 7:22Speaker 2: If you're an advertiser, if you want to advertise, come
- 7:26Speaker 2: here because you can reach everybody just on this floor.
- 7:29Speaker 2: All these stations. I think we reach like twenty two
- 7:31Speaker 2: million people every day. Upstairs at the network, I think
- 7:34Speaker 2: they reach twenty eight million people every day. But so
- 7:37Speaker 2: we do advertising all the time, and I can't tell
- 7:39Speaker 2: you how many times. Now, if you come here to advertise.
- 7:42Speaker 2: We'll help you. We'll show you how to word the commercial,
- 7:45Speaker 2: how to fix it up, what to say. And we
- 7:47Speaker 2: do that all the time because these companies come here,
- 7:49Speaker 2: even the big companies with the worst marketing, and you
- 7:53Speaker 2: look at the copy. Who told you to say this?
- 7:58Speaker 2: What's our new marketing company? Watch out for these marketing companies.
- 8:03Speaker 2: They're not always there's a couple of good ones, but
- 8:07Speaker 2: there are a lot that are not so hot. Let's
- 8:10Speaker 2: say Zora and Mam Donnie. Uh, every you know, he's
- 8:14Speaker 2: been very careful last couple of weeks, Mam Donnie has
- 8:16Speaker 2: been extremely cautious answering questions. He dances around these answers. Hey,
- 8:23Speaker 2: by the way, Mam Donnie is Starbucks. Mam Donnie's out
- 8:26Speaker 2: there fighting for the Starbucks baristas. He's doing some kind
- 8:30Speaker 2: of protest or something.
- 8:31Speaker 1: This is a city, and this is a movement that
- 8:34Speaker 1: deserves a mayor who isn't staying at home and calling
- 8:37Speaker 1: billionaires for donations. This is a city, and this is
- 8:40Speaker 1: a movement that deserves a mayor who knows exactly what
- 8:43Speaker 1: a picket line looks like, as well as what a
- 8:45Speaker 1: practice picket looks like.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Who what mayors. Who's staying home calling billionaires, not Curtis,
- 8:53Speaker 2: It's not really Adams, now Adams. Oh, he's talking about Cuomo.
- 8:57Speaker 2: Cuomo actually does that if you're a want of his billionaires.
- 9:01Speaker 2: That's the whole secret of Cuomo. Everybody hates him. The
- 9:04Speaker 2: public hates him. He's creepy, he's weird, public can't stand
- 9:07Speaker 2: and me has the highest unfavorabilities. But as soon as
- 9:10Speaker 2: he got run out of office and he fled in
- 9:12Speaker 2: disgrace from Albany, he descended on Southampton and the Upper
- 9:16Speaker 2: east Side and Palm Beach, and he wooed those billionaires
- 9:20Speaker 2: who are the most starstruck people ever, and he went
- 9:23Speaker 2: to all their dinners and their dinner parties, and uh,
- 9:27Speaker 2: that's how that's where the donations came from. They're all
- 9:30Speaker 2: backing him. And remember that crowd, whoever they back, always loses.
- 9:33Speaker 2: They're always wrong about everything. But that's who he's talking about, then, Mom,
- 9:39Speaker 2: Donnie's talking about picket lines.
- 9:40Speaker 4: And absolutely the point of this position is to stand
- 9:43Speaker 4: up for the people of the city. And this city
- 9:44Speaker 4: would not be what it is without organized labor, without unions,
- 9:48Speaker 4: ensuring that workers have a dignified life and they deserve
- 9:51Speaker 4: a Mayoro's going to stand with them on the picket line.
- 9:53Speaker 2: Gotta admit he's a good talker. He talks real fast.
- 9:55Speaker 2: You know, if you talk fast, you sound very smart.
- 9:57Speaker 2: When you talk that fast, people think you must know
- 9:58Speaker 2: what you're talking about. How else did you talk that fast?
- 10:01Speaker 2: Then you get Cuomo who talks like this. Now, also,
- 10:06Speaker 2: besides being very careful dancing around questions, he's trying to
- 10:11Speaker 2: he's got a big problem with the anti Semitism. I mean, listen,
- 10:14Speaker 2: let's be honest. This guy is anti Israel, anti Semitic.
- 10:17Speaker 2: He's horrible. But he's trying to be a little more
- 10:20Speaker 2: cautious with.
- 10:20Speaker 5: Him, so to be very very clear, of course I
- 10:22Speaker 5: condemn hamas of course I have called October seventh what
- 10:25Speaker 5: it was, which is a horrific war crime. And of
- 10:27Speaker 5: course my belief in a universality and international law is
- 10:31Speaker 5: also the same set of beliefs that have led me
- 10:33Speaker 5: to describe what's happening in Gaza as a genocide.
- 10:36Speaker 2: Yeah. See, he puts on that very sincere voice, he
- 10:38Speaker 2: talks fast, in that sincere voice, he lowers his tone
- 10:41Speaker 2: and he throws in that of course, I would never
- 10:43Speaker 2: of course I would never. Of course I would never.
- 10:48Speaker 2: He was probably cheering on October seventh. Now here he
- 10:51Speaker 2: is on Trump.
- 10:52Speaker 5: This is a moment where we have to address the
- 10:53Speaker 5: administration for what it is, which is authoritarian. It's going
- 10:56Speaker 5: to require us to do everything in our power to
- 10:58Speaker 5: fight back, not coordinate like Andrew Cromo's don being on
- 11:02Speaker 5: the phone with Donald Trump, or collaborate like Eric Adams
- 11:04Speaker 5: is done by welcoming ice into the city.
- 11:08Speaker 2: Authoritarian. They love this. He's a fascist. He's authoritarian. Now,
- 11:11Speaker 2: what Donnie is proposing is socialism, which is authoritarian. As
- 11:17Speaker 2: you can get. He has come out with some dangerous positions.
- 11:21Speaker 2: I mean in the past obviously, but even recently. Now
- 11:25Speaker 2: here's another one. A lot of police officials have talked
- 11:29Speaker 2: about this. Mom. Donnie. He's now proposing that he take
- 11:33Speaker 2: power away from the NYPD commissioner and give it to him.
- 11:37Speaker 2: And one place he wants to do that is on discipline.
- 11:40Speaker 2: You know, when an officer has to be disciplined, Mom,
- 11:44Speaker 2: Donnie wants that to no longer be the power of
- 11:47Speaker 2: the police commissioner. It will be the power of the mayor.
- 11:49Speaker 2: This is very dangerous. He wanted to be the police commissioner.
- 11:53Speaker 2: The NYPD's largest union is warning Police Benevolent Association is
- 11:58Speaker 2: warning this is dangerous. Now, what he wants to do
- 12:01Speaker 2: is have the Civilian Complaint Review Board have the final
- 12:06Speaker 2: authority on discipline. Now, the problem there is that's a
- 12:10Speaker 2: board where everybody would be appointed by Mamdani. So on
- 12:14Speaker 2: his Civilian Review Board, it'll all be a cop hating,
- 12:18Speaker 2: crazy left wing kook who hate the cops. You know,
- 12:22Speaker 2: no bail, no jail crest, so they will go after
- 12:25Speaker 2: every cop. Now, what happens if Mamdani gets in and
- 12:28Speaker 2: he does that, he's the final say on the discipline.
- 12:31Speaker 2: His review board is the final say. Well, the damage
- 12:37Speaker 2: will be unbelievable. Police officials have said privately, it'll be
- 12:41Speaker 2: unbelievable what this will do to crime because what will
- 12:44Speaker 2: happen is the policeman or woman will be afraid to
- 12:49Speaker 2: intervene in most situations because they could end up discipline
- 12:52Speaker 2: fired by this Mamdanni review. And if Mamdani has the
- 12:57Speaker 2: final decision, the one thing about the police commission at
- 12:59Speaker 2: least you know you'll try to stand up for you.
- 13:02Speaker 2: If you watch Blue Bloods, you remember how many Blue
- 13:05Speaker 2: Bloods episodes for the mayor for political reasons, says, you
- 13:08Speaker 2: gotta fire that cop right now. You got to indict
- 13:10Speaker 2: that in The police commissioner says that he was just
- 13:13Speaker 2: doing his job. And if this happens, no cop will
- 13:20Speaker 2: will want to approach any situation that's questionable in the street.
- 13:24Speaker 2: They'll have to just let it go. You know, one
- 13:26Speaker 2: thing Cuomo did, he took away the qualified immunity the
- 13:29Speaker 2: cops have, which is protection, legal protection. He took it
- 13:33Speaker 2: away from them. That's why a lot of cops had
- 13:35Speaker 2: to stop approaching certain situations because the person could then
- 13:39Speaker 2: sue them, and they weren't covered for lawsuits by the department.
- 13:44Speaker 2: He could sue them personally. This is what Cuomo did
- 13:46Speaker 2: to them. It's just awful. So a horrible proposal. Hey,
- 13:53Speaker 2: Forbes magazine, you know they do the rich Who's the
- 13:56Speaker 2: Richest Person list? Bloomberg does it. A lot of people
- 13:59Speaker 2: do the best one Forbes, that's the most accurate, that's
- 14:01Speaker 2: the best one of all. Forbes now saying Elon Musk
- 14:06Speaker 2: will be the first person to hit five hundred billion dollars.
- 14:11Speaker 2: He'll be worth half a trillion dollars. That means he'll
- 14:15Speaker 2: be a trillionaire. He'll be the world's first trillionaire probably
- 14:18Speaker 2: within ten years. Musk hits five hundred billion. Second place
- 14:25Speaker 2: Larry Ellison three hundred and fifty billion, which means Musk
- 14:31Speaker 2: can look at this guy with three hundred and fifty
- 14:33Speaker 2: billion and say three hundred and fifty billion, that's nothing.
- 14:38Speaker 2: Zuckerberg in third place two hundred and fifty billion. Jeff
- 14:43Speaker 2: Bezos found it falls to fourth place two hundred and
- 14:46Speaker 2: thirty three billion. You know, if you see a guy
- 14:48Speaker 2: with two three billion dollars, you go, wow, he's a
- 14:50Speaker 2: billion or two three billion. These guys now look at
- 14:53Speaker 2: him like they're a welfare cas whoes aid five hundred billion.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Can you imagine that you couldn't spend this if you tried,
- 15:01Speaker 2: If you just put it in the in the right
- 15:04Speaker 2: in the right fund, it would generate forty billion a
- 15:09Speaker 2: year in interest. Forty billion a year. You could just
- 15:13Speaker 2: live off that. You don't never have to work again.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Just invest this, collect forty billion a year in interest.
- 15:18Speaker 2: You couldn't spend that if you tried, You could not.
- 15:21Speaker 2: It's impossibly you couldn't spend it if you tried. Hey,

- 18:48Speaker 3: You know, Maxwell apartments works very good from Manhattan, but
- 18:52Speaker 3: maybe northern California they just have Maxwell Tents.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Or that's a very good idea and.
- 19:01Speaker 7: They can do it by different areas, you know.
- 19:05Speaker 2: All right, thanks for callin. What we're talking about is
- 19:07Speaker 2: it's the stupidest thing since cracker barrel, Maxwell House changing
- 19:11Speaker 2: the name of the car. It's going to be Maxwell Apartment.
- 19:14Speaker 2: That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. But I
- 19:16Speaker 2: like that, Jay. I actually make it Maxwell Condo, Maxwell Co.
- 19:20Speaker 2: It doesn't make any sense at all. It's like cracker barrel.
- 19:24Speaker 2: You know the problem is these marketing companies. They all
- 19:27Speaker 2: think you got to change the name, change the logo. Change.
- 19:29Speaker 2: It's all about the product. Let's go to Marlow in
- 19:32Speaker 2: New Jersey. Marlow, how you doing? Yeah?
- 19:36Speaker 7: Hi, it's Mario here in New Jersey.
- 19:39Speaker 2: Mark.
- 19:40Speaker 7: Hey, listen regarding that Maxwell House saying, do you know
- 19:45Speaker 7: that Missus Dash that's been around for the longest time
- 19:48Speaker 7: is changed in name? It's now just Dash? Can you imagine?
- 19:52Speaker 2: Okay, you can't say missus anymore?
- 19:55Speaker 7: No, I guess I want to buy some at the
- 19:58Speaker 7: local supermark. A couple of months go looking for Missus
- 20:01Speaker 7: Dash and see and I was confused. Then I saw
- 20:04Speaker 7: Dash and I thought, well, this is the same must
- 20:06Speaker 7: be the same part if update changed.
- 20:08Speaker 2: It, So what is the deal? Miss No time to remember.
- 20:10Speaker 7: That Dash was actually a detergent years back.
- 20:13Speaker 2: That's right, Well, maybe miss Missus Dash went trans or something.
- 20:16Speaker 2: She's not a missus anymore. Maybe maybe she's that's true,
- 20:20Speaker 2: maybe it's today now all right, thanks for calling. Yeah,
- 20:25Speaker 2: stop changing the names of everything. Just make it. You
- 20:28Speaker 2: know what, You can hire a marketing company, hire like
- 20:32Speaker 2: the greatest chefs or whatever. Make the product taste better,
- 20:35Speaker 2: make it delicious. If it's delicious, if it's unbelievable, nobody
- 20:39Speaker 2: cares what it's called. Hey, when we come back, Jimmy
- 20:41Speaker 2: Fayla will be with us. Let's talk to him about
- 20:44Speaker 2: everything going on in the world. Next on seven to
- 20:46Speaker 2: ten w o R.
- 20:47Speaker 4: Mister New York marks them upon seven ten w R.

- 21:07Speaker 2: late night show on television every Saturday night, ten pm
- 21:11Speaker 2: on the Fox News Channel. Jimmy Fayla, how you doing?
- 21:16Speaker 3: It's better now? I was watching Mom Donnie on the
- 21:20Speaker 3: View this morning.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Yeah, Now, I didn't see so.
- 21:25Speaker 3: The best part is like during the during the View itself,
- 21:28Speaker 3: he's in one of the commercials for The Golden Bachelor.
- 21:31Speaker 3: You know the show The Golden Bachelor, and those actually,
- 21:34Speaker 3: oddly enough, those marriages actually work out the best because
- 21:37Speaker 3: on the Golden Bachelor, till death to at part isn't
- 21:41Speaker 3: his law.
- 21:42Speaker 2: You know.
- 21:43Speaker 3: It's like when the twenty two year old get married
- 21:46Speaker 3: on TV, they gotta.
- 21:48Speaker 2: Make it a long time.
- 21:48Speaker 3: But I'm watching Mom Donnie and he's given his speech
- 21:51Speaker 3: about the Golden Bachelor and giving people the Rose, and
- 21:55Speaker 3: I'm like, wait, this is the guy that supports legalized prostitutions. Yeah,
- 21:59Speaker 3: why are you wasting your time on a gating show?
- 22:02Speaker 2: Well, uh, is that a bad thing? Legalized prostitution?
- 22:07Speaker 3: Well not if he wants to get Bill Clinton's endorsement, but.
- 22:12Speaker 2: That Hey, how are you coping with the government shutdown?
- 22:16Speaker 2: How is it affecting your life? Well, it's not.
- 22:19Speaker 3: It's not me I worry about. It's you know, there's
- 22:22Speaker 3: a lot of drag shows in Latvia that aren't being
- 22:24Speaker 3: funded right now. I mean, think think of the poor
- 22:27Speaker 3: kids in Iraq that wanted to get out of bed
- 22:29Speaker 3: this morning and watch a transgender sesame street but our
- 22:33Speaker 3: government had to shut down, so now they're not paying
- 22:36Speaker 3: for it, you know, Yeah, to think about the other people.
- 22:39Speaker 3: Mark but the whole thing is ridiculous.
- 22:41Speaker 2: Yeah, when they say non essential, don't you say, wait
- 22:44Speaker 2: a minute, you have non essential workers? Why why are
- 22:47Speaker 2: we paying for that?
- 22:49Speaker 3: It's such a good it's such a good point. It's like,
- 22:51Speaker 3: you know what, every once in a while you go
- 22:53Speaker 3: over the credit card statement and go like, oh, we
- 22:55Speaker 3: paid twelve ninety nine for this, why are we doing that?
- 22:57Speaker 3: But in the government it's like, we pay twelve billions
- 23:00Speaker 3: for this, why are we doing that? Hey, somebody else
- 23:03Speaker 3: has to look at their master card statement?
- 23:05Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry. Oh no, I say, as
- 23:07Speaker 2: a great comedian, could you give Hakeem Jeffries some advice
- 23:12Speaker 2: on how to take a joke. This guy's the biggest
- 23:14Speaker 2: stiff I've ever seen. Oh, I know.
- 23:17Speaker 3: And it's funny because he's obviously like a karaoke Obama.
- 23:21Speaker 3: You know, he's an Obama comber band. That's totally what
- 23:26Speaker 3: he is. And you know, to Obama's credit, like the
- 23:29Speaker 3: media never gave him a hard time, but he at
- 23:31Speaker 3: least had a bit of a personality. Hakeem Jeffries, it's weird.
- 23:35Speaker 3: He almost reminds me more of Hillary, and that the
- 23:38Speaker 3: octaves in his voice never change, you know, like if
- 23:41Speaker 3: Hillary was the lead singer a Kiss, you'd be like,
- 23:43Speaker 3: I want to rock and roll all night in the
- 23:46Speaker 3: party every day And you're like, wow, you don't sound
- 23:50Speaker 3: that enthusi asked about it Hill, and that's kind of Jefferies.
- 23:53Speaker 3: There's no passion. So he wants to be Obama. But
- 23:56Speaker 3: to Obama's credit, he could at least get out there
- 23:58Speaker 3: and sell you the bs that he was pedaling. Yeah,
- 24:01Speaker 3: nobody buys a king. Like if I was the king, Jeffreys,
- 24:04Speaker 3: I would want Trump to be accenting all of my
- 24:07Speaker 3: videos with mariachi's and hats and mustaches because it gives
- 24:11Speaker 3: them some life, you know.
- 24:13Speaker 2: And what about Schumer, He's like from nineteen eighty two.
- 24:16Speaker 2: He's just so a relic updated sort of guy.
- 24:20Speaker 3: Yeah. The problem with Schumer is and they Democrats always
- 24:23Speaker 3: give us that speech about how we're the Party of
- 24:25Speaker 3: the youth, and they're like, we're the Party of the
- 24:27Speaker 3: youth this you know, this country needs new blood. From
- 24:30Speaker 3: looking at Schumer, I assume they actually mean new blood
- 24:33Speaker 3: like transfusions. You know. He looks like a villain on
- 24:39Speaker 3: the Simpsons, and I don't ever know what to make
- 24:42Speaker 3: of him. Because there's the problem with being in Washington,
- 24:45Speaker 3: like he's seriously, Schumer's been in Washington since Washington, you
- 24:49Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, And it's like there's not going
- 24:52Speaker 3: to be a position you don't contradict yourself on. So
- 24:54Speaker 3: we've all heard the clips of him in the nineties
- 24:56Speaker 3: in the early aughts being like a legal immigration it's
- 24:59Speaker 3: all a scam for Medica benefits. There's all these illegals.
- 25:02Speaker 3: That's where we can't let him in. And that was
- 25:04Speaker 3: obviously on the complete opposite side of himself. Its every
- 25:07Speaker 3: Democrat could just debate themselves. You can get like a
- 25:10Speaker 3: hologram of like here's you a year ago, and you
- 25:12Speaker 3: can just have that debate.
- 25:15Speaker 2: And who told Schumer these glasses look good on you,
- 25:18Speaker 2: those big clunky glasses.
- 25:23Speaker 3: Listen, I'm not going to have you insult Schumer's stylist
- 25:26Speaker 3: or his seeing eye dolls.
- 25:28Speaker 2: That's not nice. That's what he looks like. Yeah, he
- 25:30Speaker 2: looks like he needs a dog with those glasses. So
- 25:33Speaker 2: uh good. Hey, I'm sure you're thrilled that un week
- 25:37Speaker 2: is over. That was pretty bad, wasn't it. That un General.
- 25:40Speaker 3: Oh Man wasn't the best part though, That macrone had
- 25:43Speaker 3: to get out and walk across town because they had
- 25:46Speaker 3: the one street blocked off, And I was saying on
- 25:49Speaker 3: my show, you know, it's.
- 25:50Speaker 2: A real slap in the face to.
- 25:52Speaker 3: A world leader when you got to get out and walk.
- 25:54Speaker 3: But luckily mccron's used to getting slapped in the face
- 25:56Speaker 3: by his wife. Do you remember that playing video She
- 26:00Speaker 3: beat him up on the plane and he had to
- 26:02Speaker 3: get off like it was cool, dude.
- 26:05Speaker 2: We all thought, man, yeah, I remember the day had
- 26:07Speaker 2: that video Trump and Milania in the fight on the
- 26:10Speaker 2: helicopter they were trying to go after But then the
- 26:12Speaker 2: lip reader said it was Trump yelling at her, so
- 26:14Speaker 2: he wasn't getting slapped around apparently.
- 26:17Speaker 3: No, no, no, they're not going to beat him up. No,
- 26:19Speaker 3: McCrone looks like he's into it. Let's be honest. He
- 26:22Speaker 3: looks like one of those people I would drive around
- 26:24Speaker 3: in my taxi.
- 26:25Speaker 2: Because that's thing about.
- 26:26Speaker 3: New York tells you is the traffic's the worst on earth.
- 26:30Speaker 3: But it's also the most lucrative week of the year
- 26:32Speaker 3: if you're a cab driver, because there's a lot of
- 26:34Speaker 3: people that have to get around street closures and get
- 26:36Speaker 3: to embassies and York. They kind of will hire you
- 26:39Speaker 3: for that knowledge. And you know a lot of these
- 26:42Speaker 3: people I'm talking about get paid in singles and wear
- 26:45Speaker 3: very high stiletto heels. You're taking up what I'm putting down. Yes,
- 26:50Speaker 3: And that's the part of you. One week I miss
- 26:52Speaker 3: as a driver is you know you're driving some some
- 26:55Speaker 3: guy in a dress named Cinnabuns over to some embassy
- 26:58Speaker 3: because there's a weirdo element waiting.
- 27:01Speaker 2: That was the point I enjoyed. Well, you haven't driven
- 27:04Speaker 2: in a while. I don't think it's singles anymore, is it.
- 27:07Speaker 3: No, you're right about that, so it's all kind of hunter.
- 27:13Speaker 3: Biden changed the game. Now was wire transfers coming in
- 27:17Speaker 3: from multiple entities.
- 27:19Speaker 2: Whole New world. Hey, uh, you were a cab driver.
- 27:22Speaker 2: He's not kidding, he was a cab driver. Tell us
- 27:23Speaker 2: the truth. Does the driver want to be stuck in
- 27:26Speaker 2: traffic and run up the meter or does he want
- 27:28Speaker 2: to get the right over fast so you can get
- 27:29Speaker 2: a new fare turnover?
- 27:32Speaker 3: You want to right you want a faster ride. I'll
- 27:33Speaker 3: tell you the reason why every fair that gets in
- 27:36Speaker 3: you're getting the search charge. And maybe it's at night
- 27:39Speaker 3: you're getting that differential So if you ran the meter
- 27:43Speaker 3: for an hour right now, it might generate eighty two bucks,
- 27:46Speaker 3: but if you turned over four fares, you're going to
- 27:49Speaker 3: be around forty before you even take the ride or
- 27:53Speaker 3: get tipped.
- 27:53Speaker 2: Wow.
- 27:54Speaker 3: So unequivocally, you'd rather have four mid length fairs, five
- 27:59Speaker 3: midlength fa in an hour, turnovers your friend, and every
- 28:02Speaker 3: fourth or fifth person uses you as an affordable therapist
- 28:06Speaker 3: if you're outgoing, and tips you extra money. So that happens,
- 28:09Speaker 3: And that was definitely my strategy too. The reason guys
- 28:13Speaker 3: want the long fair, like the airport fair, is at
- 28:15Speaker 3: JFK and the taxi lot there is a massive gambling
- 28:19Speaker 3: ring like for real, for real, what where they play
- 28:21Speaker 3: this pie gal poker game and they like to play
- 28:23Speaker 3: this Middle Eastern domino game I'm not making it up.
- 28:26Speaker 3: And a lot of guys because when you go to JFK,
- 28:28Speaker 3: you wait like an hour and a half for your
- 28:30Speaker 3: next fair, and a lot of guys gamble. It's like
- 28:33Speaker 3: a card game basically, it's you know, it's almost like
- 28:35Speaker 3: a recreational card game, but there's a lot of money
- 28:37Speaker 3: at stake, and anytime you're driving to central taxi at JFK,
- 28:41Speaker 3: if you see that massive lot of cabs. The reason
- 28:43Speaker 3: nobody's in them is half of the guys are exercising,
- 28:46Speaker 3: the other half are gambling. Okay, that's like a thing,
- 28:49Speaker 3: and it's a funny, you know, it's a recreational thing,
- 28:50Speaker 3: but it's pretty funny. It's like the new OTB. Instead
- 28:53Speaker 3: of off track gambling, we have off road gambling.
- 28:56Speaker 2: That's actually fascinating. But why would why would as a driver,
- 28:59Speaker 2: why would you everyone to sit and do nothing for
- 29:01Speaker 2: an hour and a half when you could be doing
- 29:02Speaker 2: twelve fars?
- 29:03Speaker 3: Well, okay, because the thing is that JFK fair that
- 29:08Speaker 3: that you take back is usually pretty lucrative, and it's
- 29:12Speaker 3: for some guys drive. They exclusively do hotels and airports.
- 29:16Speaker 3: What I mean is they have a guy at a hotel.
- 29:18Speaker 3: They have a guy to hotel that they give twenty
- 29:20Speaker 3: bucks to at the beginning of the shift, who's going
- 29:21Speaker 3: to give them the first airport fair? Then they're gonna
- 29:24Speaker 3: wait and come back to that same hotel when they
- 29:26Speaker 3: drop off. And the reason they do that is it
- 29:28Speaker 3: actually minimizes the amount of driving in a shift and
- 29:32Speaker 3: the money is comparable, meaning they might not always make
- 29:36Speaker 3: as much some day as they'll make more depending on
- 29:37Speaker 3: who they're dropping off at the hotel. But the big
- 29:40Speaker 3: thing is it's just highway back and forth as opposed
- 29:43Speaker 3: to the vehicular combat that I'm engaging in across town
- 29:47Speaker 3: for twelve hours a day.
- 29:48Speaker 2: This is actually fascinating stuff. There's a book in here,
- 29:51Speaker 2: or a Netflix documentary or something in this somewhere.
- 29:53Speaker 3: This one, well, it won't be Netflix because I'm not
- 29:56Speaker 3: trans but if I decide to make a move.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Well but great. Hey, Jimmy Faylor, what's on the tonight
- 30:03Speaker 2: show at nine o'clock?

- 30:12Speaker 3: in studio appearance. She's trying to have an intervention with
- 30:16Speaker 3: me based on some things that have happened on the

- 30:21Speaker 3: don't know what that means. She just said she's showing
- 30:23Speaker 3: up as standards and practices, So I don't know what
- 30:26Speaker 3: that means. I might be single this time tomorrow. No,

- 30:38Speaker 3: have a sense of humor. And everybody's always like, oh,
- 30:41Speaker 3: how did you get her? And I'm like, what do
- 30:43Speaker 3: you mean? Women don't want to marry an overweight cab
- 30:45Speaker 3: driver who has no health insurance?
- 30:47Speaker 2: And it was a buckie forty grand Come on man
- 30:51Speaker 2: well nine to midnight every weeknight, nine to midnight on
- 30:55Speaker 2: w OR. It's a great show. And make sure you
- 30:58Speaker 2: watch him Saturday nights at and I think it's the
- 31:01Speaker 2: best late night show on television Saturday nights ten o'clock
- 31:04Speaker 2: Fox News Channel. I love that show. Jimmy Fayla, thanks
- 31:07Speaker 2: for being with us. You're the man. Marco Soon all right,
- 31:11Speaker 2: take care, Hey, don't forget Buck Sexton, Clay Travis. Right
- 31:14Speaker 2: after this show, they'll be here right after the news
- 31:16Speaker 2: at noon on seven to ten WOR.
- 31:21Speaker 3: Now more Mark Simone on seven Tenry.
- 31:27Speaker 2: So it's the day today, October second. It's the second
- 31:30Speaker 2: day of October. Now, it's actually where in autumn it's fall.
- 31:33Speaker 2: Doesn't feel like it's beautiful and sunny out and it's
- 31:36Speaker 2: gonna be a really nice weekend. Remember last week I
- 31:38Speaker 2: said this will be like the last summer weekend. I
- 31:40Speaker 2: take that back. This will be like the last summer weekend.
- 31:43Speaker 2: It's gonna be near eighty and bright sunshine Saturday and Sunday.
- 31:47Speaker 2: It's going to be a beautiful weekend. Daylight Saving Time
- 31:50Speaker 2: is not that far away, Evan as far as ending,
- 31:53Speaker 2: like going back to standard time, that's gonna be well,
- 31:57Speaker 2: not good, not good. But now tomorrow eleven am looks
- 32:02Speaker 2: like that might be the next vote on the shutdown.
- 32:05Speaker 2: Government is shut down. I keep mentioning that because nobody
- 32:07Speaker 2: would notice. Otherwise who would notice? But it looks like
- 32:10Speaker 2: tomorrow eleven am something could happen. Even Democrats, I think
- 32:14Speaker 2: they've come to realize. Schumer Hakeem Jeffries the two biggest stiffs,
- 32:19Speaker 2: the worst faces you could put on this, the worst representatives.
- 32:23Speaker 2: The messaging from them is just absolutely awful. It's not working.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Republicans and got their act together as far as messaging solidarity,
- 32:31Speaker 2: So they may cave in tomorrow on the shutdown. If not,
- 32:36Speaker 2: it'll probably end over the weekend. That should be the
- 32:39Speaker 2: end of it. Hey Yankees tonight, right, Yeah, somehow the
- 32:43Speaker 2: Yankees won last night. The series now tied tonight is
- 32:45Speaker 2: the deciding game, six o'clock. Everybody should be watching that
