Speaker 1: It marks Alonia on double r WHOA, so I said,
0:10
Speaker 1: everybody's back, But I don't know. Just walking down the
0:13
Speaker 1: hall there, I know it's kind of empty here today.
0:16
Speaker 1: Don't look like everybody's back here. A lot of empty desks.
0:21
Speaker 1: Of course it's Monday. A lot of people don't come
0:22
Speaker 1: in on Mondays anyway, at most places. Now, all these
0:26
Speaker 1: stories all over the news about flights, delayed, flight cancelations,
0:30
Speaker 1: big blizzard in the Midwest, snowstorm Midwest, or snarling up air, Well,
0:36
Speaker 1: that's good because you can come back a day late
0:38
Speaker 1: and say, hey, I couldn't get back. I tried. Now
0:42
Speaker 1: he's speaking of weather. By the way. You know, in
0:45
Speaker 1: Florida there are all these hurricanes and then every year
0:49
Speaker 1: these climate change green schemers would hey, there you go,
0:54
Speaker 1: that's climate change. That's why there's so many hurricanes. Climate change.
0:57
Speaker 1: That's the reason. Is the fact that there's all these
0:59
Speaker 1: hurricanes proves this climate change. Well, did anybody notice hurricane
1:04
Speaker 1: season's over? Now? Did anybody notice there wasn't a single
1:06
Speaker 1: hurricane in Florida this year? They didn't have any hurricanes
1:10
Speaker 1: this year, So, according to left wing logic, that means
1:15
Speaker 1: no more climate change. It must be gone. But anyway,
1:18
Speaker 1: airlines have do have weather difficulties, and also they've made
1:23
Speaker 1: such a mess of everything. You can just sit there.
1:26
Speaker 1: You know, if you've got a flight leaves at seven,
1:29
Speaker 1: you'll get in at ten. You don't know if it's
1:31
Speaker 1: going to be am or pm by the time you
1:33
Speaker 1: get back. So here's this woman on a plane who
1:38
Speaker 1: she stands up in the aisle. You're not supposed to
1:40
Speaker 1: stand up. They're stuck on the runway, they're going to
1:42
Speaker 1: have to wait to take off. There's a delay. But
1:44
Speaker 1: she stands up and the stewardess comes and she starts
1:47
Speaker 1: yelling at the stewardess, I'm standing up, and that's it.
1:49
Speaker 1: I am legally, I am allowed to do. And then
1:51
Speaker 1: it gets out of hand and she calls the stewardess
1:54
Speaker 1: an effing C word. You fill in the blanks there.
1:59
Speaker 1: You're not supposed to do that, obviously, and you shouldn't
2:01
Speaker 1: talk like that, but on a plane, And she looks
2:05
Speaker 1: across the aisle someone is recording her with the phone
2:09
Speaker 1: and show. She immediately stops and gets quiet. But they
2:13
Speaker 1: decided to throw her off the plane because she was
2:16
Speaker 1: so vile, and they're already on the runway in a delay,
2:19
Speaker 1: So they turn around and head back to the gate
2:22
Speaker 1: to get rid of this woman. That creates another hour
2:24
Speaker 1: delay and everybody's it went viral. A million people have
2:28
Speaker 1: watched this terrible woman saying these terrible things. But you
2:33
Speaker 1: shouldn't talk like that. But it looks like there was
2:36
Speaker 1: a three hour delay at the gate. Three hour delay
2:41
Speaker 1: at the gate. Then they get on the plane and
2:43
Speaker 1: there's an hour and a half delay on the runway.
2:46
Speaker 1: This is a four and a half hour delay at
2:48
Speaker 1: some point. You have a right to get a little upset,
2:51
Speaker 1: don't you. If you went to a restaurant and they
2:54
Speaker 1: made your way to half hour, you'd be unhappy. Half
2:58
Speaker 1: I had to wait a half hour the restaurant. Well,
3:01
Speaker 1: if they said it's a three hour wait and then
3:04
Speaker 1: you finally sit down, it's gonna be an hour and
3:06
Speaker 1: a half wait for a waiter to come up, you
3:08
Speaker 1: go crazy. Who would tolerate this from any business? Why
3:11
Speaker 1: do airlines have a right to get away with this?
3:14
Speaker 1: I mean, once in a while there's a terrible situation,
3:17
Speaker 1: you're going to be delayed, But three hour delay at
3:20
Speaker 1: the gate, then you get on the plane, it's another
3:22
Speaker 1: hour and a half delay they whatever happened to that,
3:25
Speaker 1: You know, all those fake Chuck Schumer proposals that never happened,
3:28
Speaker 1: those Sunday press conferences. Whatever happened to the one about
3:31
Speaker 1: the airline has to pay you if they do this
3:32
Speaker 1: to you, if they have that kind of ridiculous, out
3:35
Speaker 1: of control delay, they have to be fined. Whatever happened
3:39
Speaker 1: to that, Like all the Chuck Schumer press conferences, it's
3:43
Speaker 1: just talk to get on the news. Nothing ever happens
3:46
Speaker 1: with it. The Oval Office. Look at it is a
3:50
Speaker 1: Christmas tree. Big? Is that normal to put the tree
3:52
Speaker 1: right in the Oval Office?
3:53
Speaker 2: Yeah?
3:53
Speaker 1: I guess it is. But it's a Trump trees. It's
3:56
Speaker 1: got too many ornaments, They're too shiny, too many looks good,
4:00
Speaker 1: It looks pretty good. Portland is now in the hands
4:05
Speaker 1: of a crazy left wing kook socialist democrat mayor. So
4:09
Speaker 1: they had their big tree lighting in Portland, and they
4:13
Speaker 1: had the big ceremony and everybody spoke, and there were
4:16
Speaker 1: songs with this and speeches, and a lot of people
4:20
Speaker 1: noticed they went through the whole thing without ever mentioning Christmas.
4:22
Speaker 1: There was no hint of Christmas. Looks like a Christmas
4:25
Speaker 1: tree but they called it the tree, not the Christmas tree.
4:29
Speaker 1: It was the tree. One speaker Native American from the
4:33
Speaker 1: Something tribe. Next speaker was about strong women. The next
4:38
Speaker 1: speaker talked about genocides. Funny how the only genocide they
4:43
Speaker 1: know about is they claim they claim there's a genocide
4:47
Speaker 1: and guys that there isn't But there's actual real genocides
4:51
Speaker 1: are taking place in like seven places right now in
4:53
Speaker 1: the world, Africa, other places, real genocides, and the Left
4:57
Speaker 1: has no interest in it, doesn't even mention it, pays
4:59
Speaker 1: no attention to it. There was another speaker at the
5:03
Speaker 1: Portland there, Free Palestine, yelling and screaming, Free Palestine. Why
5:07
Speaker 1: does this have to do with lighting a Christmas tree.
5:11
Speaker 1: You got to give the Palestinians credit for one thing.
5:14
Speaker 1: They have actually convinced these idiots on the left. They
5:17
Speaker 1: have convinced them that they're a minority somehow, that they're
5:21
Speaker 1: a little oppressed minority, oppressed by this big, massive empire
5:26
Speaker 1: called Israel. It's actually pretty funny if you think about it.
5:30
Speaker 1: I think about how ridiculous it is. Israel is the
5:32
Speaker 1: little minority being oppressed by the Arab Empire, which is massive, massive,
5:38
Speaker 1: countries and the biggest population, largest, one of the largest
5:43
Speaker 1: empires in the world. So it's Israel that Democrats keep
5:46
Speaker 1: forgetting this. Israel is the minority. Israel is the little
5:51
Speaker 1: oppressed victim of all of this hatred and anti Semitism.
5:55
Speaker 1: So hey, Dick Van Dyke is going to be one hundred.
5:58
Speaker 1: I'd love you know every Sunday night. You ever watched
6:00
Speaker 1: me TV on Sunday nights? Pretty good? It's like four
6:04
Speaker 1: all in the families, back to back before anything was
6:08
Speaker 1: politically correct. You can't believe this stuff was on television.
6:12
Speaker 1: And then at eleven o'clock it's Dick Van Dyke reruns. Boy,
6:15
Speaker 1: the guy was amazing that Dick Van Dyke show. Incredible dancer.
6:21
Speaker 1: I remember once on this very show, Dick Van Dyke
6:23
Speaker 1: was the guest and he said he got a call
6:26
Speaker 1: from a little guy. Told the story, but he said,
6:29
Speaker 1: years ago, a little guy named Michael Jackson called me
6:32
Speaker 1: and asked me if he could come over to my
6:33
Speaker 1: house and get some dancing lessons. So Van Dyke gave
6:37
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson dancing lessons. He was an incredible dancer, great
6:42
Speaker 1: Broadway star. Bye Bye, Birdie. Dick Van Dyke gots how
6:44
Speaker 1: I got the Dick Van Dykes show. That's what put
6:47
Speaker 1: him on the map. But he's one hundred years old,
6:49
Speaker 1: and a lifetime of dancing can help you, you know,
6:52
Speaker 1: it's an athletic kind of thing. But here's a guy
6:56
Speaker 1: who had a smoking problem, a drinking problem, all this stuff.
6:58
Speaker 1: But he's a hundred. How do you get to be
7:00
Speaker 1: one hundred?
7:01
Speaker 2: He was asked, I feel really good for a hundred,
7:04
Speaker 2: you know, but I really don't. I have no pain,
7:09
Speaker 2: no discomfort. People say, what did you do right? And
7:12
Speaker 2: I say, don't ask, I don't know.
7:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, usually these dancers you talk to Rock
7:17
Speaker 1: catz Er, you know Broadway dancers, once they're over forty,
7:20
Speaker 1: they start to get all kinds of arthritis, aches, pains, back,
7:24
Speaker 1: this from the dancing. But if you really knew what
7:29
Speaker 1: you were doing, knew how to train and stretch them,
7:31
Speaker 1: and you can avoid all that fantic one hundred years old,
7:34
Speaker 1: still going strong.
7:35
Speaker 2: People say what did you do right? And I say,
7:37
Speaker 2: don't ask, I don't know. I think I've always dond
7:41
Speaker 2: that anger is one thing that eats a person's insides
7:46
Speaker 2: and hate and I never really was able to work
7:51
Speaker 2: up a feeding of hate. You know, there were things
7:54
Speaker 2: I don't like, people I don't like and disapprove of,
7:57
Speaker 2: but I never really was able to do a kind
8:01
Speaker 2: of eight. I think that is one of the chief
8:04
Speaker 2: things that kept me going.
8:05
Speaker 1: That's good advice. A little hatred is guy I like
8:09
Speaker 1: hating some people, but he's right, don't get crazy angry.
8:12
Speaker 1: It's just there's fun hatred. Do it in a fun way.
8:15
Speaker 1: I mean Trump arrangement syndrome. That's like really anger, But
8:18
Speaker 1: hating Biden it's kind of fun, you know, just making
8:21
Speaker 1: fun of. You don't really hate him, you just like
8:22
Speaker 1: to make fun of. What other advice does Van Dyke Haster.
8:26
Speaker 2: We singing is the best singing you can do for yourself.
8:28
Speaker 2: Usually I'll wake up with an old tune going through
8:31
Speaker 2: my head. They call her fivolous, shut a peculiar sort
8:35
Speaker 2: of a goal a while sort of devil.
8:37
Speaker 1: Ooh, dead on a level was my old pal. Okay,
8:43
Speaker 1: but this guy was a professional singer. This guy was
8:46
Speaker 1: a Broadway musical comedy star singer. If you're a professional singer,
8:50
Speaker 1: it's okay for the rest of you. Don't do it
8:52
Speaker 1: when we're listening. Don't please don't sing when we're around,
8:54
Speaker 1: if you're alone in the car, the shower, fine, but
8:57
Speaker 1: there's nothing more annoying than a bad amateur singer. But
9:02
Speaker 1: good for him one hundred and I'm trying to think
9:07
Speaker 1: who else. Are there any other major stars that are
9:09
Speaker 1: one hundred years old? Big big stars? I don't think so.
9:13
Speaker 1: And there were all those guys, Bob Hope, George Burns.
9:15
Speaker 1: He didn't quite get there, you know, like ninety eight,
9:19
Speaker 1: ninety nine, but usually they took a bad fall and
9:22
Speaker 1: that's where it went downhill. Although Hope, Bob Hope had
9:25
Speaker 1: a guy that took care of what was his name, Charlie,
9:28
Speaker 1: And by the time he was ninety eight, he couldn't
9:32
Speaker 1: really go out. He would sit at home watch TV
9:34
Speaker 1: all day. Charlie would sit with him and do you
9:35
Speaker 1: remember one day there was a false alarm, a false
9:39
Speaker 1: story about him dying. Well, Hope was actually watching TV.
9:43
Speaker 1: We had CNN on. He's watching it and the guy
9:47
Speaker 1: comes on the anchoring says this just in comedian Bob
9:50
Speaker 1: Hope is dead at the age of ninety eight. And
9:54
Speaker 1: Hope turned to Charlie and goes, that's not true. Is it?
9:59
Speaker 1: Still had a great sense of humor. Bob Morgan, though
10:03
Speaker 1: he almost made a hundred. I think he was a
10:04
Speaker 1: month or two short. I remember we had one hundredth
10:06
Speaker 1: birthday party for I remember m seeing his one hundredth
10:09
Speaker 1: birthday party. And there's another guy who was always in
10:12
Speaker 1: great shape. It worked, I think right up until the end,
10:16
Speaker 1: doing one thing or another. So hey, we're talking about
10:19
Speaker 1: this before the three casinos. The hearing was today on
10:22
Speaker 1: the final three casinos. Looks like all three got approved,
10:27
Speaker 1: all three approves. He's gonna get a big casino and
10:30
Speaker 1: a concert venue and hotel, the whole thing right across
10:33
Speaker 1: from City Field of a lot of area. Now what
10:37
Speaker 1: does that mean. I'm gonna lose a lot of parking obviously,
10:40
Speaker 1: well become a parking garage. There are people that live
10:43
Speaker 1: around City Field. The traffic will be worse than ever.
10:47
Speaker 1: Not to mention, you got LaGuardia right near there, so
10:49
Speaker 1: the City Field will get its casino. The other one
10:53
Speaker 1: is Bally was it was the Trump golf course in
10:57
Speaker 1: the Bronx. What I forget what you call Throgsneck or
10:59
Speaker 1: wherever that is. As soon as you come over the
11:01
Speaker 1: throgs Neck bridge, there'll be a big casino there, and
11:06
Speaker 1: that's the other one Aqueduct Aqueduct where there's already slot
11:10
Speaker 1: machines and all that. You'll get a casino. That's three
11:13
Speaker 1: casinos in New York. Now I don't really care. I
11:17
Speaker 1: don't go to casinos. I don't really but I would
11:21
Speaker 1: think this is very bad for Atlantic City, which is
11:24
Speaker 1: not doing as well as they'd like. So what happens
11:28
Speaker 1: is you lose your New York customers. If they got
11:30
Speaker 1: three casinos they can go to here, they're not going
11:33
Speaker 1: to Atlantic City. You know, a lot of people still
11:35
Speaker 1: go to Las Vegas because it's a vacation. You're out
11:38
Speaker 1: in the desert. It's a whole different environment. Atlantic City
11:41
Speaker 1: is not exactly the most scenic. It's not exactly Paris,
11:44
Speaker 1: so you don't need to go there. This will also
11:46
Speaker 1: be bad for Mohegan's Sun and Foxwoods because I would
11:54
Speaker 1: guess a lot of New York City people, but that's
11:56
Speaker 1: probably not a major chunk of their business. Most of
11:58
Speaker 1: their business probably from bar Providence, that sort of stuff.
12:02
Speaker 1: But all three casinos were approved. They got to be
12:05
Speaker 1: finally approved by the state whatever. But that should happen, Mom, Donnie, Hey,
12:13
Speaker 1: the fire commissioner, as he was the first one to resign.
12:16
Speaker 1: Robert Tucker, great guy, wonderful guy, and a very successful
12:20
Speaker 1: guy in the private sector with a big company, so
12:22
Speaker 1: he doesn't need to be the fire commissioner. You know,
12:24
Speaker 1: a lot of these guys are public servants. They can't
12:27
Speaker 1: do anything in the real world for a living, so
12:30
Speaker 1: they cling to it. Not Tucker. He resigned right away
12:34
Speaker 1: and didn't want to say much. But it's getting towards
12:36
Speaker 1: the and he's leaving. Here's Tucker.
12:38
Speaker 3: I believe that the things that I have heard the
12:41
Speaker 3: mayor say would make it difficult for me to continue
12:46
Speaker 3: on in such a senior executive role in the administration.
12:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you hear more and more of this as
12:53
Speaker 1: people leave the administration. The new people coming in are
12:56
Speaker 1: for They all sound terrible on paper, they're awful. There
13:01
Speaker 1: are most of them ex de Blasio people. So you
13:05
Speaker 1: forget we went through this with Deblasio. Nobody remembers go back,
13:09
Speaker 1: and I got to go back and look at all
13:11
Speaker 1: this shows we were doing back then. It was the
13:13
Speaker 1: same exact conversation just before Deblasio took office about all
13:17
Speaker 1: these left wing KOOXI was appointing and all the crazy
13:21
Speaker 1: people who was putting in and all the crazy ideas
13:23
Speaker 1: he had, and he put in a traffic commissioner who
13:26
Speaker 1: hates cars, and he put in a school person who
13:29
Speaker 1: hates charter So it's the same thing we're doing going
13:31
Speaker 1: through the same exact thing right now. In fact, it's
13:35
Speaker 1: all identical. The one thing he did he put in
13:37
Speaker 1: a one police commissioner everybody thought was good, which was
13:40
Speaker 1: a Bill Bratton. That was the one good hire. He
13:44
Speaker 1: put in Bill Bratton. Of course Bratton didn't last long.
13:49
Speaker 1: And then between Deblasio and Eric Adams, we had more
13:54
Speaker 1: police commissioners. You know, usually we're pretty stable on a
13:58
Speaker 1: police commissioner, although Dinkin's and threw a bunch of them.
14:02
Speaker 1: But then you had Ray Kelly, who was the greatest
14:06
Speaker 1: police commissioner ever of all time and was the longest
14:10
Speaker 1: serving I think it's I think eighteen years was the total.
14:13
Speaker 1: I mean, he's Babe Ruth and he's Louke Garrigg in
14:17
Speaker 1: that he had the like the longest longevity record, so
14:21
Speaker 1: it was amazing. Then you got the Blasio. Eric Adams
14:24
Speaker 1: was I can't even let's see if anybody can remember
14:26
Speaker 1: all the commissioners, Bill Bratton, Dermott, Shay, who's the other guy,
14:33
Speaker 1: James O'Neill. Then there was Keyshaw Suwell. Then there was
14:37
Speaker 1: Eddie who was the police smier, Eddie Corone, Eddie Cardell.
14:42
Speaker 1: I can't even remember them all. Then there was who's
14:44
Speaker 1: that guy for about six months ex fed guy, nice guy,
14:49
Speaker 1: McDermott whatever, No, not McDermott, Donnelly. He was a very
14:54
Speaker 1: nice guy, but then he was gone. And then they
14:58
Speaker 1: go right from that to Jessica Tish. I think we
15:01
Speaker 1: had like eleven commissioners in two months. It was the
15:04
Speaker 1: worst period for the NYPD, just all these changes going on.
15:08
Speaker 1: So anyway, the Democrats we're talking with this before the
15:13
Speaker 1: transformation the Democratic Party has gone through. If you went
15:15
Speaker 1: back in, you know, ten years ago, it was like
15:19
Speaker 1: Bill Clinton type Democrats. You know, we have a kind
15:23
Speaker 1: of a liberal policy on taxes, on this, on that.
15:27
Speaker 1: It went from that to totally insane, off the wall crazy.
15:31
Speaker 1: They'll defend the National Guard shooter, they'll defend the drug
15:35
Speaker 1: cartel boats. They'll defend illegal criminals all over New York,
15:40
Speaker 1: you illegal aliens, the gang members, rape, they'll defend that.
15:45
Speaker 1: I mean, just crazy and As we said, part of
15:48
Speaker 1: the problem is the colleges went crazy over the decades,
15:51
Speaker 1: going so far to the kooky socialist left. They became
15:55
Speaker 1: in doctrination camps for these socialist communists. The other factor
16:00
Speaker 1: was the Biden demonstration of the Democrats. Democrats have been
16:04
Speaker 1: doing this for years, but the Biden wistration really went crazy,
16:07
Speaker 1: letting in tens of millions of illegals Third world all
16:11
Speaker 1: that tens of millions of illegals, because their research showed
16:16
Speaker 1: that these people would vote nine out of ten would
16:18
Speaker 1: vote Democratic. So if you'll let in twenty thirty million
16:21
Speaker 1: of them, you can change elections. There will be all
16:23
Speaker 1: these new Democratic voters. That was the plan, but like
16:28
Speaker 1: most democratic things, it backfired on them entirely because, yeah,
16:31
Speaker 1: they will vote Democratic, but not for establishment Democrats. Chuck
16:36
Speaker 1: Schumer looks like an old dinosaur to them. They'll vote
16:39
Speaker 1: for third world left wing kook type Montani types. They're
16:42
Speaker 1: not going to vote for Kristen Gillibrand, they're not going
16:45
Speaker 1: to vote for Bill Clinton. They're not going to vote
16:47
Speaker 1: for any of these old fossils. They're going to vote
16:49
Speaker 1: for a whole new breed of left wing crazy Democrats. Hey,
16:53
Speaker 1: Miranda Divine will be with us in a few moments.
16:55
Speaker 1: We'll take some calls. Next eight hundred three to two
16:58
Speaker 1: one zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three
17:02
Speaker 1: two one zero seven ten
