• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to The Mark Simone Show.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Live from the WOR LifeVac studios.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Well, it's the third and final hour of the show.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: A lot to get to this hour. So, you know,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the election, the midterms, the governor's race here, and all
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: this stuff is only like 35 days away. It's coming
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: up pretty fast. Kathy Hochul has agreed to only one debate.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: This is unusual. Just one debate. She's turned down All
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the major debates. She's refused to debate on Channel 2,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Channel 4, Channel 5, Channel 7. She's agreed to one.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: New York won, which has 12 viewers and is the
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: most biased, slanted left-wing place imaginable. The debate moderator will
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: be the extremely biased left-wing Errol Lewis. So that's all
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: she's agreed to. But we'll see what happens in that debate.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Something could go viral. You never know. Around the country,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of these Republican candidates suddenly trying to distance
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: themselves from Donald Trump, which might be a mistake. But
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: one thing that GOP has, although it's getting close, whatever
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: they got, they should be using right now. But they
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: do have a ton of money. The RNC has about
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: $ 250 million in cash. The DNC has about $ 10 million.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: So the RNC does have tremendous resources. And they are
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: showing up in certain states. National Republican Senatorial Committee's latest
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: round of spending will be $ 46 million. They're putting $ 10
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: million into Iowa, $ 11 million into Ohio, $ 2 million into Alaska,
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: $ 8 million into North Carolina. North Carolina is the toughest one.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: These other states, Ohio, Iowa, they shouldn't have this kind
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: of trouble. But Iowa looks tied. Sherrod Brown in Ohio
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: has a four-point lead. This shouldn't be going on. Michigan
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: is close. That shouldn't be going on. You got Mamdani
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: and crazy left-wing radical Chuck Schumer raising money for that horrible, awful,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: anti-Semitic Michigan candidate.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Schumer raising money for it. So President Trump even
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: has an ad he's running all over the place about–
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: what he's done, what Republicans have done, but apparently the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: government paid for it. So everybody's up in arms. Perfectly legal.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: It's been done by other presidents. It's one thing Democrats forget,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: one thing in the media ignores. When they go after
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Trump for something, they never mentioned that every other president's
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: done exactly the same thing. But Schumer put on his,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: remember he used to have the Ben Franklin glasses? Now
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: he's got those big, huge Swifty Lazar glasses. And he
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: reads his little index cards and tries to sound mad.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: I'm calling on the administration to reveal which agency aired
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: this illegal propaganda, on whose orders, and exactly at what
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: cost to the American taxpayer.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Well, that's it. He's calling on them. Good. This Schumer,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I love just listening to clips of him. It doesn't
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: matter what he's saying. You can tell he's not even listening.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: You can tell he never saw these words before in
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: his life. Somebody wrote it out. on an index card
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: and he's reading it.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: We have a population that is not reproducing it on
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: its own with the same level that it used to.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: The only way we're going to have a great future
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants, the
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: dreamers and all of them.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: So he says we're not reproducing. The only way we
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: can keep the country going is illegals coming in. We're
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: not reproducing. Is he crazy? Is he crazy? How many
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: times have you been in an airplane or a restaurant
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: and you hear screaming babies everywhere? How many times have
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: you tried to walk down the street and there's somebody
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: with a stroller? Obviously, we're reproducing. Check the maternity wards.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Plenty of babies are being born all the time. Are
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you a guy? Every woman you know is going to Pilates.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Every time you talk to a woman, I have to
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: go to Pilates tomorrow. I get up early. I got Pilates.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: She's leaving for Pilates. No guy knows what the hell
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: this is, this Pilates.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: It's something where they stretch and move and do something.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: But according to this, more and more men are taking
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: up Pilates. Oh, I don't mean a couple of guys
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: who used to do it just to meet women. No,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I mean they're like seriously taking it. But they want
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: their own classes. They do not want to be in
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: a room full of women doing Pilates. One of the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: problems is the women are pretty damn good at it. Guys,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: we don't know what the hell we're doing with this Pilates.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: So there's a lot. It's a big thing now. Men's
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Pilates classes. You know, this whole thing was founded by
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: a guy named Joseph Pilates. That's where the name comes from.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: You know, people like to think, oh, Pilates, it's like
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: an ancient Greek. It goes back to the Stone Age. No,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: it's a guy named Joe Pilates who invented this. Actually,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: it was after World War II. He was in World War, oh, no, wait,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: World War I. So it's pretty old. It's over 100
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: years old. but he came up with this routine to
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: repair his own health, strengthen wounded soldiers. But, you know,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: if you were in World War I, there was a guy,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: somebody could say to you, hey, you know my friend
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Joe Pilates? Hey, Joe, how are you? And his uniform
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: said Pilates on it. So he didn't envision one day
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: it would be like the favorite thing for women. It's
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: good for you, though. It's good, it's stretching, it's doing
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: all kinds of things for you. So this new study
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: shows that pizza-wise... This is not a good study. This
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: is not Dave Portnoy. He's the most accurate when it
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: comes to where the best pizza is. This is based
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: on Google customer ratings, and who knows where those come from,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: and sanitation scores. In other words, who produces the most garbage?
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: In other words, who's the busiest pizza place? Manhattan wins
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: easily with 18% of the country's best pizza joints. Oh, no, actually,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: that's New York City. New York City has 18% of
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the country's best. Within New York City, Manhattan wins with 60%
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: of the top-rated pizza joints.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: 60%.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Now, there's some good pizza in Queens. Some of the
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: greatest pizza in the world is in Brooklyn, DeFara, and
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: some of those places. The best pizza in the world
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: in Manhattan, you got John's of Bleeker Street, and you got, well,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: just watch Portnoy. There's a lot of the top pizza
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: in the world in Manhattan. Number two, I guess, would
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: be New Haven, Frank Pepe's, Sally's, and a couple of
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: those others. Connecticut is an amazingly strong pizza place. For
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: sleepy little Connecticut, not known for food, it's got the Colony,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Frank Pepe's, Sally's, and a few others. I mean, amazing,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: amazing amount of great pizza there.
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: These AI centers, these data centers, nobody wants them. You
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: know how much money these data centers have? These companies,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: do you know how much money they have to throw around?
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: So they want to build one in Hazel Township in Pennsylvania.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: The whole town is opposed to it, blocking it. So
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: they sent out 11,000 letters to everybody in town. They
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: sent a letter saying, we'll give you $ 10, 000 if you
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: vote for the data center.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: 10,000 a person.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Now, how much does that cost them? $ 45 million. But
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: that's nothing to them. $ 45 million just to buy some votes.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: The company also plans to make $ 120 million in payments
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: to support the town for local police, all that sort
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: of stuff. Now, if you're going to get a check
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: for $ 10, 000 from the data center company, you know, average
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: income there is $ 60, 000. That's a lot of money. You
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: could pay your rent for a year. Could take care
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: of your groceries and all kinds of things for a
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: lot longer. So we'll see what happens. These data centers
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: slowly solving the problem, the electricity problem they can fix.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: They can generate all their own electricity. The water problem
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: they fixed. They can recycle water. It's just the noise
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: from those turbines. The answer to that is probably coming
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: from Elon Musk. He's building his own data centers, but
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: he's also going to build his own turbines. He'll figure
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: out a way to make those things quiet. And once
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: that's done, that should end the opposition to the data centers.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: And pretty amazing. Now, that's a big issue. That's a
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: big issue. You know, these crazy left-wingers, a lot of
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the left, the Jimmy Kimmel crowd, a lot of the
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: MSNBC crowd, the CNN crowd, they're generally angry old people.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: They're all old. They're old left-wingers. They're older. They don't
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: work so much. They got a lot of free time.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: They're watching MSNBC and CNN and reading the New York Times.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: They're all well over 60 and they're all angry. And
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: I was listening to Jimmy Fallon last night. It's a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: great show every night, nine to midnight. He was pointing
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: out that these angry old white liberals, nothing to do
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: all day except get mad. You know, they're the ones
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: screaming about the ballroom and they're the ones that can't
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: stop talking about the reflecting pool and He said they
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: probably don't realize that real Americans, normal people that are
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: working their ass off every day trying to pay the bills,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: they're working in the factory, they're working two jobs, they're
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: raising kids, they're busy. They don't care about the pool,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: the ballroom. It's not an issue for them. They don't
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: think about it for a second. They got other things
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: to worry about. Affordability, yeah, that can be a problem.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: But that's kind of a democratic problem, too. if you
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: look at these studies, the number one expense a lot
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: of people have are their taxes. That's Democrats trying to
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: tax you to death. That's the Hokuls and the Mamdanis. And,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: health care is a big issue not getting the right
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: you know tough getting the right health care right getting
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: the right medical coverage well that's a democratic problem because
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: what's the system we're all under now obamacare so if
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: there's any problems with medical care well Thank Obamacare. Remember,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: he had the White House, the House, the Senate. He
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: could pass anything he wanted for a medical program, and
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: that's what he passed. So if it's not working well,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: but as Jimmy pointed out, that's what the Democrats do.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: They create a huge problem, and then they campaign as
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: the guys that can solve it. If you're on Instagram
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: and they're trying to sell you this new Instagram Plus
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: for $ 4 a month, an extra $ 4 a month, you
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: could get Instagram Plus. What does it give you? Well,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: your story, you know, when you post an Instagram story,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: it only stays up 24 hours.
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: Why?
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: You could make it stay up longer. I don't know
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: if anybody cares about that. The new story rewatch count
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: lets you see how many times your story was replayed,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: who exactly looked at it and didn't check like on it.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: You can see if somebody watched it twice. If you're
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: a stalker, this could be valuable. There are people that,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: you know, the woman they're interested in, they keep checking
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: to see, did she look at my story? Did she
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: view my... Outside of that, I don't see why anybody
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: wants to pay $ 4 a month for this. It also
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: provides timestamps for when someone first viewed a story. Updating
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: if they return to re-watch it. You got to be
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: a little crazy if you need this information. others say,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: but others are warning, be careful. This charging, Instagram is free.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: It's $ 4 a month for these features. They think it
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: might be these social media companies testing out, trying to
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: start charging you. No more free social media. Meta and
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: these other companies, that might be the future they're looking at.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: No more free Instagram. No more free TikTok. No more
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: free Facebook. You know, There are a lot of people
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: that spend the whole day on social media. If it's
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: that vital to you, if you're going to devote that
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: much of your life to it, maybe they should be
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: charging you for it. If they got you that hooked,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: why not charge you? So look for that to be
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: coming in the future. A lot of 2028 candidates. Remember
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Rahm Emanuel? This guy is trying so hard to be
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: a 2028 candidate. Problem with Rahm Emanuel, he looks like
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: a thuggish kind of... dirty political operative from years ago,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: big part of the Clinton administration. Now, you might say, well,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: he got elected mayor of Chicago. That's different. That's the
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: real thuggish, creepy guys get elected mayor of Chicago. Richard Daley,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: the greatest example. But he wants to be a 2028 candidate.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: He's a little outdated. He looks like a rough, tough, old,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: old school politician. That's not popular with Democrats nowadays. He
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: was asked, what separates you from the other Dems? He said,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: three things. And they said, oh, everybody's listening. What's the
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: three things? He said, candor. Nobody cares about that. Authenticity. Again,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: dirty old political operative. I wouldn't use those as great
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: examples of authenticity. He said, the other one is strength.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: And what that means.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: In his case, it means he was really a nasty guy.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Remember they used to call him Dead Fish Rom? He's
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: the guy that sent a dead fish to somebody. So
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I think his time has really passed. He said, he
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: gives you one of those. Anytime you hear this kind
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: of speech, you know that they have nothing to run on.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: He said, because if elected, I know what to do
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: on day one. Remember Hillary Clinton tried that. A lot
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: of people have nothing to sell you, arguing. I'll be
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: ready on day one. No, who cares? Let's say you're
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: not ready until day five. We could live with that.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: ready on day one. He said, no, I'm not going
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: to tell you what you like to hear. I'm going
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: to tell you what you need to know. I'll make
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: the tough decisions. Again, very, very outdated guy. 2028, Kamala Harris,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: believe it or not, still in the lead with 25%
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: among Democratic voters, still in the lead. Hey, we'll take
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: some calls next. We'll see if the phones work. We'll
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number. If you're
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: a new caller, we'd love to hear from you.

• 15:49
  Speaker 5: That's just his name that I'm calling him.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Calling him basically a penis? Is that what you mean?
• 15:54
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I'm surprised at you, Bonnie. You seem like such a
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: classy woman. The language you use. What is wrong with you?
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: I know it.
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: I could think of lots of names for him. He
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: hates us. I hate him back. But I want your
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: opinion about.
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: Him, Mark.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: You seem like a nice, sweet woman. You've got to
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: stop obsessing about peckers. What is it with you and
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: this pecker stuff?
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: Okay, I'm going to hang up.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: There is a pecker, right?
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: Tell me what you think about him, Mark.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: David Pecker, right?
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I can promise you I will not be thinking about
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: it for one second. Anyway, thanks for calling.
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: Okay, bye.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right. It's the last thing I expected to
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: come out of her. In Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Let's go to
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: John in Ronkonkoma. John, how are you doing?
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: I'm doing great.
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: I've got to follow that call up.
• 16:43
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: Anyway, so no mention of Long Island Pizza and the
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: best pizza.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: You know, nobody can figure out why. You've got the
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: greatest restaurants in Long Island. You don't have good pizza
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: in Long Island.
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: Seriously.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: You don't have good pizza. David Portnoy has talked about
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: this for years.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: You don't have good pizza.
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: Come on.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: You got good music.
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: You ever go to Little Vincent's?
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Little Vincent's is fantastic.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Oh, please. Oh, please. Remember, Mark, it's on Long Island.
• 17:09
  Speaker 8: Get it right, would you please?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: You heard Billy Joel.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: You can say either one. You can say in Long Island,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: on Long Island. Little Vincent's is.
• 17:15
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and I know Billy Joel is off Long Island.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Now, but, you know.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Little Vincent's is famous for one thing. They have this
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: pizza where it's all cooked and done, and then they
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: throw cold cheese on top of it. Very cold cheese. Right, yeah.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: That's what they're famous for. As Portnoy said, dumb, gimmicky.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: You know why that started, that cold pizza, throwing the
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: cold cheese on it?
• 17:35
  Speaker 7: I don't know, get rid of the cheese that they
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: got to get rid of?
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: No, years ago, drunken college kids would go there late
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: at night, and they'd bite into the hot pizza and
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: burn themselves. That's why they threw cold cheese all over it. Now,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: you don't have any... There you go. Oh, actually, the
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: best pizza, it's in a restaurant, Tutto Pazzo, now called
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Posto Pazzo in Huntington. Makes the best pizza in the world.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: But it's a restaurant. It's like a sit-down restaurant with
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: waiters and you order.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: I might have to try that.
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: Oh, yeah.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: It's phenomenal. But order something else. They get mad when
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I plug the pizza because the big money is not
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: in the pizza. Yeah, they want to order the chicken.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: That place has the best pizza in Long Island. But
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: that doesn't count because that's a serious chef pizza. That's
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: not a buy-a-slice kind of pizza. All right. Thanks for calling.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Take care. Let's go to Blauvelt in Florida. Blauvelt, how
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: you doing? Blauvelt, are you there?
• 18:30
  Speaker 7: Yes, yes, yes.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: I'm here. Can you hear me? Yeah.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: What did you want to say?
• 18:34
  Speaker 7: I said, what about Lombardi's on Spring Street?
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: You never talk about Lombardi's.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Very good. Excellent pizza. One of the finest and oldest
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: in Manhattan. Lombardi's is great.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: 1905. Yeah, 1905.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: That's the price of a slice, too. No, I'm kidding.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: That's very good pizza. Hey, why is Blakeman wasting money
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: running ads on your show?
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Is he running ads on our show?
• 18:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I just heard two in the last couple hours.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I got to be honest. During the break, I went
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: to the little boys' room. Was he running ads here?
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I heard two.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: That could be part of a deal. You know, if
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: you're running for office and you're a Republican and you
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: say to yourself, I don't need to advertise there, they'll
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: vote for me. We have the most important stations you
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: could advertise on, like Charlemagne right over there, Power 105.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: The black votes, very important. Spanish votes, we got KTU.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Whatever you need. Oh, so it's running over there too? Yes,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: sometimes they buy an iHeart package where they're on every station,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: so it could be part of that. We have a
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: lot of sponsors who aren't even on the air, believe
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: it or not. They just want our social media. They
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: want to be all over our Instagram or TikTok, so
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: it's probably part of a big package buy All right. Well,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: thanks for calling. Take care. Let's go to Marie. in Ossining. Marie,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: how you doing? Marie in Ossining, are you there?
• 19:56
  Speaker 7: Nope.
• 20:00
  Speaker 8: Marie? Can you hear me?
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Marie.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Ossining, New York, where Don Draper lived. Go ahead.
• 20:06
  Speaker 8: Right, and Sing Sing Prison.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
• 20:10
  Speaker 8: I just have a question. You know, I don't understand
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: why Kathy Hochul has to make the choice of whether
• 20:20
  Speaker 8: she'll debate or not. I mean, she's the governor, yes,
• 20:22
  Speaker 8: but she's also a candidate. So I don't know. I mean,
• 20:26
  Speaker 8: it just seems like unfair that she, you know, makes
• 20:29
  Speaker 8: the decisions as to whether or not she will debate.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Well, it's interesting because she didn't take public money. She
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: was able to raise so much money. If you don't
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: take the public money, You're not legally obligated to debate.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: She's agreed to New York One, but only because that's
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: the most left-wing biased place in the world.
• 20:45
  Speaker 8: Oh, okay. I didn't know that.
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: All right. Thanks for calling. We've got time for one
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: more call.
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: Thanks.

  Speaker 7: I'm doing well, Mark. How are you?
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Good.

  Speaker 7: Mark, are you familiar with the term vocal fry?
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: Vocal fry?
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 21:05
  Speaker 8: No.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: It's this.
• 21:07
  Speaker 7: Hi, Mark.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: How are you today?

  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 21:18
  Speaker 7: No, that's how are you. But this is like, can

  Speaker 7: I take your order, please? It's exaggerated.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: You're talking about people that go, oh. When you say,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: how are you? Oh, I don't know. I'm tired. Oh,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: I know the traffic.

  Speaker 7: But now it appears on AI. I called a dental
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: insurance firm the other day, and they said, Hi, this
• 21:42
  Speaker 7: is Donna. I'm your AI representative. Can I help you?
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: I said, Donna, where are you from? The Valley? And
• 21:50
  Speaker 7: she said, I'm so sorry about that.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, that AI answering the phone. Hey, by the way,
• 21:57

• 22:07
  Speaker 1: what to leave. Leave your number. Yeah, we know what to,
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: and leave the time that you called. What the hell

• 23:55
  Speaker 6: And on Substack, Twice a week, we're putting out people's stories.
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: I mean, people really miss this man. Conan O'Brien did
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: an interview last week saying Johnny Carson was the most
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: famous man in America for 30 years. And the impact
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: that this guy had on the public and everything from
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: comedy to fashion to business, I mean, is just measurable.
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: And we're presenting new things about Carson from the people
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: that knew him.
• 24:22
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: People might, especially younger people today, Tonight Show's nice with
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon, but it doesn't mean much in the world.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: And Kimmel, small audience. Colbert, he had his little niche audience.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: They may not realize there was a time where everybody
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: watched The Tonight Show. The country watched it.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: It really did.
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: I mean, the sitcoms, I mean, you have to look at,
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: you know, Roseanne is this housewife, Roseanne Barr, and suddenly
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: she's on the number one show in America. I mean,
• 24:48
  Speaker 6: the Carsey Warner people were watching Johnny Carson's Tonight Show.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: And that is how she got the gig. Freddie Prinze
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: is this 19, 20-year-old kid that goes on Johnny Carson's
• 24:58
  Speaker 6: show and within six months has the number one show
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: in America, Chico and the Man. The power of Johnny Carson,
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: the people that would go on Carson as unknowns, Ross Perot,
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: the billionaire, no.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: One knew who this guy was.
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: Carson put him on in the late 60s, and suddenly
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: he's thrust into the national spotlight. And Ross Perot, believe
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: it or not, showed up to 30 Rock here in
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: New York without any bodyguard, no security, and just showed
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: up himself.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: Now, a big part of The Tonight Show was the
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: new comedians, and Carson discovered hundreds of the biggest stars
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: in the world. But when Jay Leno took over, he
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: dropped that whole feature. Why?
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: Jay Leno, unfortunately, his producer told him the ratings were
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: going down with comedians. Music, the ratings go down, but
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: comedians don't. Their research, the NBC research, said that it
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: went down even more. Now, Johnny Carson refused to do
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: that to comedians. He knew that his responsibility that he
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: had with his show to comedians and was loyal to them.
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: And for whatever reason, I don't know if that was
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: accurate or not, but Jay was a company man with
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: NBC and said, you know, every rating matters. And the comedians, unfortunately,
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: were pushed to the side for a long, long time.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: So, hey, everybody, sign up for the sub stack. It's
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: called Here's Johnny Carson. Great sub stack. Get the book.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Love Johnny Carson. You'll love this book. We were talking
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: about this all week because it's the 72nd anniversary of
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: The Tonight Show. It was created 72 years ago by
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: Steve Allen, who said when he started, he had no
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: idea what would happen with it. But it was amazing, right?
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: That's what he began with.
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: It really was.
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: It was one of those things when he started the show,
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: he did it, you know, for four or five years.
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: And the notion that the show was even going to
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: continue was in doubt. But then, you know, Jack Parr
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: doesn't end for whatever, four or five years.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: And that's what people thought. You do the show for
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: four or five years.
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: And the fact that this guy, Johnny Carson, for 30
• 26:56
  Speaker 6: years dominated, number.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: One, and turned this into such.
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: A cultural milestone.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Your phone is cracking up.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: Unbelievable. Oh, sorry about that. Can you hear me now?
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, much better.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: Sorry about that.
• 27:09
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, the fact that the show has been able to, yeah,
• 27:13
  Speaker 6: for that many years succeed because of Johnny Carson for
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: those 30 years that he was delivered at number one
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: in the show, the fact that the show is still
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: going and in Johnny's original.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Studio on the sixth floor of NBC and 6B.
• 27:26
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: So what was different about Steve Allen, what got everybody's attention,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: before that, even the late night, whatever it was, it
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: was a variety show. They had sketches, they had a script.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: He would just come out and ad-lib. Nobody had ever
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: done that before.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: An hour and 45 minutes live from the glorious Hudson Theater.
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: And they were doing the show live from 11.15 till
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: 1 a.m. And, yes, Steve Allen was a master going
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: out on the street just with a camera and just
• 27:54
  Speaker 6: interviewing people.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, the guy.
• 27:56
  Speaker 6: I mean, just doing such innovative stuff. David Letterman, I mean,
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: he gave Steve Allen all the attribution. He was basically
• 28:02
  Speaker 6: copying a lot of Steve Allen's gags. I mean, the
• 28:04
  Speaker 6: man was an absolute legend and should get the credit
• 28:08
  Speaker 6: for creating the Tonight Show, the person behind the desk.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, what a master Steve Allen was.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, Steve Allen had a desk. And I think
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: if it were guests, they'd bring out a chair behind
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: the desk. But it was Jack Parr came along. He
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: was the next Tonight Show host. He's the guy that
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: came up with the desk, a chair, and a couch.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: He invented that and got rid of all the variety stuff,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: the music kind of stuff. And it was mostly a
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: talk show. And Parr was a– have you been watching
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: a lot of Jack Parr? He's on YouTube. Fascinating guy.
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: It really is. I mean, he is a broadcaster. I mean,
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: he was unbelievable in the– The controversy, I mean, that
• 28:49
  Speaker 6: he was, these feuds and he would weep on air and,
• 28:52
  Speaker 6: you know, he's feuding with Ed Sullivan. You know, people
• 28:56
  Speaker 6: like Jimmy Hoffa suing him. I mean, it was always
• 29:00
  Speaker 6: in the news for going after people. It's such a
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: fascinating case study, Jack Parr. You know, Dick Cavett told
• 29:08
  Speaker 6: me Jack Parr's biggest regret, Parr told him, was leaving
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: the Tonight Show. It was the biggest regret of my life.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah so but it was so intense and he got
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: so emotional it was he couldn't keep it up much
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: longer than carson comes in and at first everybody thought
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: it was a bad choice because he was so casual
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: and low-key they didn't think he was big enough to
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: fill up that show right and what was the truth
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: the first year or two they they weren't sure he
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: was going to make it.
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: This guy was a game show host on abc people
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: said this guy's wrong and we want controversy and john said, no,
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: this is an entertainment show. And it really did take
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: the public a little time for them to catch up
• 29:45
  Speaker 6: in Carson's brilliance. And, you know, he takes over the
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: Tonight Show in 62. And by 1964, he's breaking Judy
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: Garland's record in Las Vegas. And he has cemented himself
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: as a huge global superstar. I mean, people around... everywhere,
• 30:00
  Speaker 6: wanted to go to the Tonight Show to wait for tickets.
• 30:02
  Speaker 6: They would save up their money to go to Vegas
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: on vacation to see Johnny. But still with NBC, he
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: couldn't get a restroom, his own bathroom in his office
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: at that point. And it took every year, he would
• 30:13
  Speaker 6: get a little bit more momentum from NBC and it
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: took him It took him like almost like nine years
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: to finally get a window office and to finally, and
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: this is Johnny Carson, to finally get a bathroom and shower.
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: Everything took a little bit of time.
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: But I think the 1964 in Vegas at the Sahara
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: when he was getting paid, I mean, people couldn't believe
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: the money that he was getting paid. That is what really,
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: I think, got him over the top as an established
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: star with NBC.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Now, a big thing was every year they would do
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: the anniversary show with all the highlights, an hour and
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: a half of incredible highlights. And we've all, we all
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: know those highlights. Could you imagine a Jay Leno highlight show?
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: Could there be such a thing?
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: I don't think so.
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: I mean, the only thing when I've talked to people
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: about Leno show that watched it, I asked for memorable moments.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: They've mentioned Hugh Grant and there weren't a lot. I mean,
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: he would do the Jay walking and those popular segments,
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: but not really specific moments.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: Whereas you talk about Carson. I mean, it's just one
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: thing after another.
• 31:09
  Speaker 6: And I got to sit down with Ed Ames of
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: all people in his nineties and Los Angeles and talk
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: about the famous tomahawk throw.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: And it was one thing after another with Rickles.
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: And people all over the country send me their memories
• 31:20
  Speaker 6: of watching Johnny a lot of times with their parents.
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: And growing up, you've mentioned this, Johnny was kind of
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: a role model. You watched him, this is how adults
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: behave and dress and act. And yeah, I mean, the
• 31:34
  Speaker 6: celebration of this man is the podcast, The Substack.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: And the Paley Center right now has his desk.
