  Speaker 1: Hey, it's Mark Simone. Welcome to the bonus segment for
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: you podcast listeners. Well give you an extra show. Thank
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: you for being a podcast listener. You can also listen
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: live ten to noon every Monday through Friday. What a
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: week it's been. What a week? So yeah, Mom, Donnie,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: not a great week for the Democrats. But but doesn't
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: mean much of anything. Everything will change by the midterms. Democrats,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: you know, they're never really happy, they're never really gloating.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: They've always got some explaining to do. Look at this
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: George Clooney giving an interview. I don't know why he
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: keeps talking about politics. It is the worst thing you
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: could be talking about. He says he has no regrets
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: on Remember he introduced Biden at that big rally in
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles. He brought Biden out. He gave you a
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: boost for Biden, a big rally to promote him. And
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: then Biden, of course, was a total vegetable in the debate.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: So then Clooney wrote an op ed saying Biden had
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: to get out. He was the first one to turn
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: on Joe Biden, big public, big star, turning on him.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Everybody thinks he got permission from Obama. Or was told
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to do it by Obama. He wouldn't have done it
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: on his own. But he pushed Biden out of the race,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: so he admits. He says he has no regrets about that.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: He admits Kamala Harris was a big mistake, big mistake,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: he says. I think the mistake with it being Kamala
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: is that she had to run against her own record. Well,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: it's the same record that Biden had. It was the
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Harris Biden administration. So he said, no regrets about pushing
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Biden out. But Kamala Harris wasn't the right choice. But
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: you know, so if you're upset about Mom Donnie, all right,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: don't feel bad. We got through Deblasi. We got through
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: eight years at de Blasio. Democrats are never happy. They're
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: not happy now. They're not going to be happy with
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Mom Donnie. It's going to be an absolute nightmare for them.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Speaking of Obama, his wife Michelle Obama, of course, the
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: former First Lady, said it was very tough on her,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: being the first black first Lady. It was very tough
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: on her. It was a particularly white hot glare under
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the what is that the hell is she talking about?
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: She got a pass on everything. It was so nervous,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: tiptoeing around her all the time, putting her on every
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: magazine cover. Everybody was so deferential to what is she
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: talking about? It was tougher on her than anybody was.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Take a look of what Malania Trump goes through. You
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: want to see what tough is. Look at what my
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Milania Trump has to battle from the press and from
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: everybody else. But these Democrats are never happy. Here's Stephen
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Colbert doing an interview bashing his own network. He said, Trump,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the fact that CBS made a settlement to him is
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: totally damaging the reputation of CBS. What was the reputation
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: of CBS fake news? That was the That was the reputation. Now,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the person that's been sent in there to clean up
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: CBS News is Barry Weiss, who was with the New
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: York Times for years. She's a Democrat New York Times type,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: but she's not for corrupt media. She's not for fake news.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: She wants it all to be fair and balanced, and
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: that's why she had to leave the New York Times
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: and that's why they brought her into cleanup CBS News.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Make it fair and balanced. Well, you've seen these stories
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: about her traveling with bodyguards all of a sudden, Well
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: it's not only true, but apparently CBS needs an even
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: bigger security detail to guard her. They're looking for bodyguards,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: they're advertising for them. They're looking for ex Navy seal types.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: They want somebody who can bench four hundred pounds and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: looks great in a suit. Now, seriously, they're looking for
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: a lot of bodyguards for her. In fact, if you're interested,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: it's contact. What you do is you just go to
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: jobs THEFP dot com, jobsthefp dot com if you want
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: to be a bodyguard for Parry Weiss, the new head
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: of CBS News. Now, why all this security, apparently a
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: lot of it is that she's been getting death threats
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: all over the place for her strong support for Israel.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: You know, The New York Times is anti Israel as
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: you can get, and sixty Minutes had been very very
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: anti Israel, CBS News very anti Israel. Well, she's cleaning
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: that up. And the fact that she's supporting Israel has
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: caused her to get all kinds of death threats. And
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: that's why these it's not just a bodyguard. You'll see
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: her surrounded by ten bodyguards when she goes to an event.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: These Democrats are not happy people. You know, when Elon
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Musk bought Twitter, he got rid of the fake news,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: the bias. Twitter was very biased. If you were a conservative,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: you got shadow band. They would fix the algorithms so
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: nobody saw your feed. Well, Elon Musk came in and
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: fixed that. Everybody was equal. They looked for both sides
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: in an argument, both points of view, and liberals hated that,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: so they all ran away from Twitter and they formed
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: their own Twitter. It's called Blue Sky. It's the Democrat Twitter,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: it's the liberal Twitter. They don't want to hear any
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: opposing point of view. So they all moved over to
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Blue Sky and it became very, very very big. There's
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: millions and millions. That's you know, if you don't see
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: your much liberal stuff on Twitter anymore, it's because they're
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: all on Blue Sky. So it got so big Blue
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Sky that well a lot of the conservatives thought they'd
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: better go join it and start tweeting over there. But
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: they don't like that at Blue Sky, so they're blocking accounts.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: If you're a conservative, they don't just shadow man you,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: they actually block your account. You're blocked. Guess what The
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: most blocked account is at Blue Sky the white House.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: The white House. Actually the second most blocked account, Number
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: one is jd Vance. I don't think Donald Trump is
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: on it, but jd Vance is on it. He's been
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: blocked by hundreds of thousands of users. The White House
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: has been now blocked by hundreds of thousands of users.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Biggest on blue Sky AOC She's got over two million followers.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Mark q Ubans are two million followers. A very left
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: wing sort of guy. Hey, they did this a big
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: The Travel Report Travel trends, the most beautiful new Fall destination.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: What's the trendiest destination trendy No, it's not Spain, it's
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: not Grease. Trendiest destination right now travel destination new Haven, Connecticut,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: New Haven, Connecticut. Yeah, I have no idea. Well, it's
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: a quick short drive, you know, not short, but it's
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: held a lot easier in getting to Grease. It's like
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: two hours from Manhattan if you drive, if you're lucky,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: two hours by train. It's the They say the college
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: town allure of Yale and all that, but it's really
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: the pizza capital of the world. Frank Peppi's and Sally's
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: and all of that that could have a lot to
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: do with there's a lot of one. It says craft
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: breweries and coffee shops and jazz and indie music venues.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know a lot of places have that. We
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: got a shoe, We've got a Broadway level theater, the
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Schubert Theater. I know, we got twenty of them here
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: in New York. And if you want to try the
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: great New Haven Pizza Frank Peppi's and Sally's and these
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: pizzas that you've heard about, you don't have to go
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: there anymore. There's a Frank Peppy and a Sally's in Stamford.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: There's one in Fairfield, Connecticut. If you're in Long Island,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: just wait, there'll be one near you pretty soon. Hey again, mom,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Donnie wins, far left socialist, communist, he wins, And everything's well,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: that's the way the Democrats will go. Now, actually, things
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: will change by next year and you'll have to be
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: more towards the center. And that's why a lot of
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: people think Josh Shapiro, the Pennsylvania governor, have a good
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: shot because he's been towards the center. And keep your
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: eye in that fetterman. He's been a centrist, so if
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: you're far left, you're gonna have a problem. Now, Fetterman
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: has said that they'll try to move to the center,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: like Gavin Newsom is now trying to be a centrist,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: like a very centrist Bill Clinton, common sense Democrat. He's
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: trying to do that. But Fatterman points out, you can't
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: do this stuff anymore because the internet is forever, and
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: you could try to do that, but they'll just put
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: together miles and miles and miles, a video of you
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: in the past and all the crazy left wing things
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: you said. So not going to work anymore. Hey, what
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the hell happened to Tucker Carlson. He's just gone completely
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: off the deep end, just crazy anti Semitic stuff on
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: his podcast from he put on one of the biggest
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: anti Semites in the world and gently questioned him, didn't
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: go after him, and why would you even give this
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: guy a for him anyway? And you know they'll argue, well,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: he's not if you listen to the clips of him
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: over the last couple of years, he's the worst anti
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Semite on earth. No business being given a forum. Tucker
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Carlson did it. Now you get these outcasts who are
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: no longer working on a network. They've all been fired,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: you know, the Megan Kelly, Don Lemon, Jim Acosta, Tucker Carlson.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: So they do they do their own shows. You know,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: they put together their own little podcast from their living room.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: And I guess to get attention, you got to get coverage,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: So they'll go do something crazy just to get attention.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Megan Kelly does it all the time, do anything to
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: get covered, to get some press. But a lot of
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: people think Tucker going way, way, way too far with
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: this crazy stuff, just over the top anti Semitic people
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: on the show, and it doesn't look good. It's really
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: really strange. Hey, Costco, if you're a big Costco fan,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: they got the best hot dog in the world and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: the best hot dog bun in the world. It's one
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: reason people keep getting their Costco membership card. You know,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: they don't make a lot of money at Costco on
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: anything they sell. You can buy a million things in
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: there and they're not making a big profit. The real
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: money is from the membership card. You know, it's eighty
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: dollars a year or one hundred and twenty dollars. Well,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: if you got ten million members or it's a ton
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: of revenue, so that's why that hot dog is still
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: like a dollar twenty five. They lose money on every
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: hot dogs sold, but it gets people in the store.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: It's the best hot dog in the world and Costco
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: so they're trying to add to that. Now the food
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: court is going to have some new stuff. They're trying
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: to copy Dairy Queen. They started with a carmel brownie
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Sunday that's only two ninety nine. You know, Dairy Queen
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: is absolutely delicious. A blizzard at Dairy Queen phenomenal. So
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: they tried to copy this and people have tested it,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: tasted it, said it's pretty damn good. It's really as
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: good as Dairy Queen. But it's only two ninety nine.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a lot cheaper now. The other
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: thing they're doing is trying to go after McDonald's. They're
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: putting together some McDonald's type products, taking them on and
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: they'll do it a lot cheaper. So there may come
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: a time where you'll go to Costco. Really you'll just
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: have the membership card just to go there and eat.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of money to be made there on
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: that stuff. They speaking of food there's a donut place
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: in Los Angeles that's iconic. It's legendary. Randy's Donuts in
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles. You've heard about In and Out, which is
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the big Hamburger chain in Los Angeles, and it's better
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: than any other chain. In and Out Burger phenomenal. They're
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: not coming to New York. People that begged them. They
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: don't want to come to New York. They just say
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: it doesn't work. Everything's too expensive in New York, the rent,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: the taxes, they just can't make it work. But the
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: same thing in donuts in La is Randy's Donuts. It's
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: just iconic in Los Angeles. It's considered the greatest donuts
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: ever in Los Angeles. It's like the Peter Lugers of donuts.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: They got thirty varieties. Well, they're finally opening in Manhattan.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: I think it's this week. They're opening in Manhattan one
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: to eighty five Bleaker Street, corner Bleaker and McDougall. It's
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: as big as anything ever has been in Los Angeles.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: If you watch the Tonight Show. I don't know if
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: anybody watches the Tonight Show anymore, but with Jimmy Fallon
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: has been doing a lot of stuff with Randy's Donuts.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: But they're finally, for the first time ever coming to
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: New York. Now, the good news is, with all this
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: great food stuff coming everywhere, it'll be easier to lose
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: weight with ozempic and those type of things. There's like
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: five or six of these ozempic type drugs. Costco is
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: going to start selling them much cheaper, and President Trump
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: made a deal this week that Medicare will cover those drugs.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Medicare will now cover Eli Lily and Norvo Nordisk their
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: ozempic type stuff, the GLP one drugs and you know
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: those you get those ozmpic it's like twelve hundred bucks
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: a shot. It's very expensive. But they've made a deal
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: with these big drug companies. They'll get them for two
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: hundred and forty five dollars a month, one sixth or
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: one fifth the price, and start making them really really available.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: If Medicare will cover then the remember a lot of
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: people the weight loss is very very good for some
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: medical condition, so it really is a great thing. What else, Hey,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: speaking of eating, you know remember in your kid you'd
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: all get around the dinner table and the whole family
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: would eat. Nobody does that anymore. In fact, you used
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: to have a TV tray. You get set it up
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: in front of the TV and watch TV, and there
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: were TV dinners. Apparently that trend is coming back bigger
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: than ever, Bigger than ever. People don't want to be
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: They just want to watch TV or be on their phone.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: They don't want to sit around at dining room table,
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: and dining room tables are out. In fact, TV trays.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: A lot of companies now working on real, flashy and
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: innovative new type trays. It's the new trend. It's coming.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Don't fight it. Don't fight it. Why not you want
• 13:27
