  Speaker 1: best one in Jerusalem last year. He was tremendous on
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: stage at the Manhattan Jewish ex ex Burians on Wednesday night.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Too great coach, but even a better friend. Good morning, Bruce,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: how are you shity?
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: I am terrific? This is sitting friends and I don't
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: know what brought us together, brother, but I'm not sure
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: who your mother your father is, but I think somehow
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: we're related.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you how we got together. I'll be honest.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: I saw you rapping to fill in before a college
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: basketball game. I said, look at this guy. I mean,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: I'm a big sports guy. I'm aware of all your
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: success and the great coach over, but I didn't know you.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: I'm like, look at this guy. The world hates Israel.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: This is after the war obviously started in twenty twenty three,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: and it didn't matter Kentucky any big game, LSU, there's
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Bruce Pearl rapping to fill in. So I reached out
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: to a kid named Zach Gelb. I know his dad,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Bob gel very well Fromontay's gather at WPA N and
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Zack said, I just thought Bruce Son. He said, can
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: you possibly make some type of shock between me and
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Bruce because I think I love this guy? And he
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: sent me your number. I texted you, and to my surprise,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: you texted me right back. You're on my shoulder next morning,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: and the love of Bear has blossomed ever since.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Well. I grew up as a kid wanting to get
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: bar Mitstead so that I could go with my papa
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: in the morning and wrap the fill in at the
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: morning service. And you know, it was it was very
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: very special. My Papa died about five months after I
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: was bar Mitstead, and but we got a chance to
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: do that. And you know, it's always you know, it's
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: an incredible blessing, and it's just it reminds us of
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: who we are. And listen, it is so okay to
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: be proud to be an American, a patriot, and a Jew.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: And I live it and I own it, and I'm
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: just grateful for it, and I'm grateful that I could
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: do it right here in this country.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: I tell you, though, that's a story that surfaces. I
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: was in Rockland County last Faddy. You know, I saw
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: the President. He was very sweet as always to me,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: and Jackson Dart, the quarterback of the Giants, introduced President
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Trump and it turned into a huge problem where the
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: quarterback the coach had to address the team on Wednesday.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: In the meantime, the biggest troublemaker, Abdul Quarter didn't go
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to the meeting. Shows you what a coward he is.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: But either way, it became a big issue and is
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: still a big issue for Jackson Dart because he publicly
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: supported President Trump, and you did the same thing with
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: something equally equally as as I guess critical people getting
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: very very upset with Israel controversial by publicly supporting Israel,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: and you ought to deal with your players and people
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: in Alabama and the school and the press. It didn't
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: stop Jackson Dort. It didn't stop you. How ugly did
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: it get for you?
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: You know? The ugliest thing said that happened to me
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: was during the last election with Vice President Kama Harris
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: and Donald Trump. I publicly supported the president for a
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: number of reasons. I'm conservative, I'm a capitalist, I believe
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: he did a great job the first time and has
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: done an amazing yow the second time. And well, I
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: was really proud of our country for electing an African
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: American president twice in Barack Obama. Because I'm a basketball coach,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: ninety percent of my players are African American men, I'm
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: constantly looking for role models and examples for them about
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: why they can be great in spite of the racism
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: and some of the obstacles. I don't want to have excuses.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: This is the greatest country in the world. You can
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: be anything you want. Barack Obama as an example of that.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: And for the same reason, I was proud that our
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: country nominated, even though it was crazy the way they
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: did it, an African American woman to be the president
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: of our country. I just thought she was a failed candidate.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: I thought she could take our country in the wrong direction,
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: and I publicly came out and supported Donald Trump. Were
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: articles in the CNN and USA today. Why would an
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: African American man ever go play for this basketball coach
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: because he's a racist? Just because I supported from overcome
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: and maybe a racist. Of course, that's nothing could be
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: further from the truth. As far as Israel in the South,
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: let me tell you something, brother, in the South, Israel
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: still commands support. We are losing support with our younger
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Christian friends because of that replacement theology being taught. But
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: I tell you in the South and in the Republican
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Party in the South, support for Israel is still very strong.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Oh it's so good to hear that, because I have
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: to imagine that where you live in Alabama, not a
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: huge Jewish community, right, Bruce, No.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Not a huge community, but a huge Christian community. A
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Christian community that embraces the Jewish roots of their Christian faith.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: You go to church in the South and about a
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: third of the service is from the Old Testament. And
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: they recognized that every disciple that wrote the New Testament
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: was Jewish and died horrific deaths to bring Christianity to
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: the world. Don't say thank you, but stop hating us.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: And you would think, and Jesus Christ, of course was Jewish.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: You think right there, that would stop all of the hate.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: But it's not. It's not stopping us.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: The two most popular Jews in Alabama.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Right in Jesus, you and Jesus. How about that, Bruce
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Pearl and Jesus Christ. So, you know, talking about politics
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: and President Trump, you were really considering and I thought
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you were going to do it running with that. Tommy Tuberville.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: See Tommy another great Auburn coach. He was the football coach.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: He won, he was the senator in your state, and
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: he said, okay, I'm going to be governor. Now we
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: all know, of course that he is on his way
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: to being governor. Tommy Tuberville, he's a Republican candidate in
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: the state of Alabama coming up in November, and you
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: really were so considering running for that vacant Tubbleville seat
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: in Congress in Alabama. To the point I'm gonna make
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: this on air. I'm sorry, Bruce you called me. I
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: was so honored. I really was. I was so honored
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: that you called me. From my opinion early on, you know,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: a decision making process, and I told you to do it.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I said, look, you've got nothing else to prove in
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: college basketball. You're already one of the old time greats,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: final fours and huge wings over big schools. You should
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: do it. And I thought you were, but you didn't.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: And why was that the case?
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Again, well said, I think it's very much the case
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: of why you are considering, you know, a run for
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: the mayor of New York. You know you would be
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: an unbelievable mayor. You know that you would love everybody
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: in the city and because you love this city and
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: you would pour your your heart and soul into it.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: At the same time, it would be a tremendous sacrifice
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: for your family and the risks that are associated with it.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: And the question you and I talked about is the
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: same one that I would talk to you about. Okay,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: if you were to be the mayor, why you could
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: do an amazing job. Look at the platform you have
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: right now, and look at the difference that you're currently
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: able to make in the lives of New Yorkers By
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: providing with the news and information on this number one
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: radio show, you are still making an incredible impact. And
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: that was sort of what what you and I talked about.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: And and and one of the reasons why I decided
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: not to run for Senate is, look, there there are
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: one hundred votes in the United States Senate. The Republican
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: Alabama vote will be maga, it'll be conservative, it'll be faith,
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: it'll be family, family, it'll be pro Israel. And those
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: are the issues that matter most to me. And so
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: I said, you know what, my vote's not going to
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: matter in the United States Senate, but my voice still does.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: And so that's why now I am no longer coaching basketball,
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: but I'm involved in coaching America and coaching Christians to
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: to embrace the Jewish roots of their Christian faith, and
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: coaching Jewish people to embrace their Jewish life. Because listen,
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: sid God's our only hope at the end of the day.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: If we would simply go about what would God have
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: me do today. If that's what we would do, every
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: one of us, we would have peace and we would
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: have prosperity. But that's not the case right now in
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: the world. And that is what I'm going to teach.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: And your son. It's still close to you basketball because
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: your beautiful boy, Steven, he's coaching the same team you coached,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: and another championship came your way. You've got a bunch
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: of SEC championships and bonal Baul appearances, Bruce, and your
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: son Steven, year number one wins the NIT Championship. So
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: you may not be coaching, but it doesn't get any
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: closer when your boy is out there coaching and enjoy
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: great success in year number.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: One, Sid, how about this. In the last nine years,
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: six Auburn basketball teams have won a championship, well, six
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: different teams SEC Tournament, SEC regular season or this year
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: when Steven won the n i T Championship. I was
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: so proud of him for keeping that team together. New
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: Jersey's own to Hot Pettiford played phenomenal in March, and
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: I know it wasn't the NCAA Tournament, but the end
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: of the season there were six teams that were still
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: playing college basketball, the four teams that were at the
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: Final four, and Tulsa and Auburn in Indianapolis playing for
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: an n T championship. And of course, growing up in
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Boston and being on the Big East for so many years,
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: I knew how important that tournament was. I know it
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: what it always had meant, and so it was a great,
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: a great rate ending. And I'm very proud of the steam.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: He's doing a tremendous job. Well he is.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Tumo will let you run. I know you're going to
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: march on Sunday at the Sony Day Parade. Saw my
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I do it every year, so do you. I bumped
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: into you actually last year afterwards at the Fifth Avenue
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Synagogue before their big conference. I guess they're doing it
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: this year at Park East, not Fifth Avenue. But regardless,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: you'll be more on Sunday. The big story in New
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: York today is that the mayor has decided not to
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Now you heard what I said Wednesday night. I don't
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: want him to. Why would I want somebody who outwardly
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: hates the Jewish people marching with us? Now he contends,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: it's not the Jewish people, it's the Israeli government. Well
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: that's nonsense. This parade on Sunday is going to be
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: packed with New Yorkers, the people that he claims to love, right,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I love every New Yorker. I'm here for every New Yorker,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Jewish or not. Well, that's who's marching on Sunday. I'm
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: not asking Mom, Donnie, this lying prick to go to
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Tel avivn March. Okay, I'm not asking Mom Donnie to
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: go to Jerusalem in March. It's Fifth Avenue, it's New
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: York City, it's his city. But he's been exposed. See, eventually,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: if you talk to an anti Semite long enough, they'll
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: tell you I'm not anti Semitic, I'm just anti Zionist.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: They'll tell you they love the Jews. Eventually they're exposed again.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: If this was in Jerusalem, I get it, Mayor Mom Donnie,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: but how do you not go in a city where
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: you won that is money Jews? How do you explain that.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: There is no explanation for it other than the fact
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: that he hates Jews, he hates Israel. Will he march
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: in the Saint Patrick's Day parade? Will he did? He did?
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: He walked right actually he did. He walked right past
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: me at the Saint Patrick's State parade.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: He would be, he will be at the Pride parade,
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: he will be at all the other parades for everybody
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: else in the city except his Jews. And so it is.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: But you know what, at least he's told us exactly
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: who he is. And the one thing that we we,
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: we can't can allow is for them to separate the
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: difference between anti Semitism and anti Zionism. There is absolutely
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: no difference. We may not love everything that Vladimir Putin
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: is doing in Russia and Ukraine. In fact, we are
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: all opposed to it, but that does us give us
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: the right to drive a truck through a a Russian
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: restaurant or it just it doesn't. There is there's no
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: consistency except the consistency of anti Semitism. And it's unfortunate
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: because unfortunately our leaders people will listen to them. And
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: it all goes back to this. If there were a
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: Palestinian state, there would be no Jews allowed, because a
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: Jew would be put to death by simply walking the
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: streets of a Palestinian state. And yet in the state
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: of Israel there are two million Arabs and Muslims living
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: their best lives as citizens, as members of the Poort,
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: as members of the Kanesset. Fifty percent of the healthcare
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: workers in the state of Israel are Muslim. When you
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: walk down the streets of Tel Aviv, about one in
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: every four persons look like they're Arab. You know why,
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: because they're Arab. Stop with the apartheides, stop with the
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: with the genocide, stop with the bullshit. It is lies
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: in propaganda. And that's why said when things come down,
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: people are gonna go back to Israel, go back and
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: visit and simply see themselves. Don't take your word for it,
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: don't take my word for it.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to go back in two weeks. Finally,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: I'd be remiss. You are a great basketball coach. I
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: don't care if you're coaching Saturday afternoon in Kentucky or
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: a lot of your buddies like Rick Patino, who, of
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: course great college basketball coach coach the Knicks. John Kyler
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Parry also coached in the NBA. So many great college
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: basketball coaches gave it a shot at the NBA level.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: And you're a big basketball guy. Knickerbocker's in all likelihood
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: will take on Oklahoma City only because the home team
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: has won every game in that Western Conference final Siries
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: San Antonio forcing a Game seven, which will be played
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: tomorrow night. Thunder ragning champs and the Knicks don't match
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: up well. They got beat up at Wlomaston doing the
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: regular season. The Knicks did beat the Spurs during the
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: regular season. But regardless of who comes out of the West,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: what do you think the Knicks chances are of winning
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: the NBA Championship this year?
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: You know, said they got a shot because they've got
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: a couple of things got They've got chemistry. Uh, they've
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: got toughness. Uh, they've got tremendous size, they've got physicality, uh,
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: and the ability to defend. They're a better team now
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: than they were when they played OKC. And I think
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: that the way coach Brown is utilizing Carl Anthony Towns
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: uh as as a weapon both inside and outside. Uh,
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: the the elite defense of o g and And and
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: Michale Bridges and in Brunson, he's just a baller. The
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: ball is in his hands late in the game. Uh,
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: he's gonna go get a bucket. He's gonna go make
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: a play. Josh HoTT just the winner. I don't know
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: what's to do with Robinson, what's to do with the
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: broken Peaky.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: I think he's out. I think he's going to be out. Yeah, yeah,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: he's gone out.
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, a little bit of rim protection and a
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: little bit of physicality, but no, Look, the Knick's got
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: a fighting chance, and I do think this could be
