  Speaker 1: when he first got in office, he h. The first
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: thing you want to know is what the hell were
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: those drones? And apparently it was nothing serious and I
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: can't remember. You have to go back and look it up,
• 3:32

  Speaker 2: Good? Just a question the next time that you speak
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: to Vincent from Brooklyn, ask him please if he ever
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: ran into Michael Francis, who I'm sure he might have
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: crossed paths was in the nineteen seventies or eighties.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: That's the guy that does that podcast now, I.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Think so, and I think he was pretty well connected.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: I once leased a car from him in nineteen seventy something,
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: a Lincoln Mark four.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: You sound like you're up to something. You know, you're
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: always kind of whispering like what are you up to there?
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Who may? Yeah, what are you leasing the car from
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: him for?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Because I was looking for a Lincoln Mark four and
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: they ran an ad in the New York Times from
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: least car of America.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Lincoln Mark four?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: What are you?
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Hoffer right twenty?
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: And when I finally he finally he wanted me to come.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: He wanted come to my where I work, which he did.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: And then when I was talking to him. He said,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: will where do you live? I said, Jamaica Estates and Queens.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: He said, oh, great neighborhood. He said, go deliver the
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: car time you have.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I heard, But if you want a Lisa car,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: you go to a Lincoln dealer. They got plenty of
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Lincolns there. What do you I know?
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: I know I was a young guy and they had
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: advertised an incredible price.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Why do you think that is probably a bottom in
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: the trunk or something.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: You know what he said to me, this car used
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: to belong to Rocky Graziano and he shouldn't make the payments.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Well, there you go, there you go, and he.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Said, but it's an excellent shape. You'll get the full
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: guarantee and we'll deliver it to your house within two
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: or three days.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Wow, you know he should be. This would be a
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: great story if this was nineteen seventy eight. But anybody
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: anymore but a link in Mark four you could see
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Uncle Junior driving that around. Let's go to Jean in Riverdale. Jean,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Hey?
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: Mark, A long time listener of yourself. I just wanted
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: to comment on what you said about Julie Mennon and
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: Marque Levine. Yes, Marque Levine is the controller and the
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: city council is going to vote themselves a big pay rate.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Well that's all. That's that's terrible, But it's all politicians.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Any politician will do that.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but he should come out and say, hey, listen,
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: this is wrong. The City of New York can't afford
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: this with one hundred and twenty six billion dollar budget
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: that they want to do.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: No, I understand, No, everybody agrees with you, but that's
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: the way they are. Those are Republicans, Democrats, politicians. They'll
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: always vote themselves are raise. Nothing you can do about it.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: And well, so you know, I don't think Julie Mennon
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: would make a good Maari because she's very she's very liberal.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Way, No, I understand why she's not very liberal. She's
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: slightly liberal. She's a more common sense. I'd rather have
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: a Republican mayor Juliani Bloomberg something like that. But if
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be stuck with a Democrat, you're better better
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: off with a Julie Mennon or a Mark Levine than
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: a Mamdani. That's all I was saying. Absolutely, all right,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: thanks for calling. Oh, when we come back the perfect candidate,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman. He should be the next governor of New York.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: He's the guy who could really start to save New York.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman should be the next governor of New York
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: and we'll talk to him next on seven to ten
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: wor
