Hour 2: How cool can we get? · The Mark Simone Show

0:00
Speaker 1: It's the Mark Simone Shout live from ther Life Bax Studios,
0:05
Speaker 1: guest hosting for Mark Today.
0:07
Speaker 2: Here's Ken Rosato.
0:10
Speaker 3: And so nice to be with you on your Thursday
0:13
Speaker 3: as we lead into Independence. Stay. By the way, I
0:15
Speaker 3: like to call it Independence Day instead of fourth of July,
0:18
Speaker 3: just because I know it's popular to call it fourth
0:20
Speaker 3: of July, but we tend to lose count or lose
0:23
Speaker 3: track of what the holiday is. We just think of
0:25
Speaker 3: it fourth of July, hot dogs, fireworks forgetting it is
0:29
Speaker 3: Independence Day. It's the day that are founding parents, let's say,
0:33
Speaker 3: because the remember, behind those founding fathers were founding mothers
0:37
Speaker 3: who sacrificed a lot too. And behind those founding parents,
0:41
Speaker 3: they had some hutzpa to stand up to the literally
0:45
Speaker 3: the giant power of the world at the time, Great Britain,
0:49
Speaker 3: and say, screw you, We're going to be an independent
0:53
Speaker 3: country and we want nothing to do with you. And
0:55
Speaker 3: that took some hootspot because I bet you a lot
0:57
Speaker 3: of them figured they were signing their death warrant at
0:59
Speaker 3: that point. They figured that that Great Britain is gonna
1:02
Speaker 3: come and h they were gonna come and wipe them out.
1:04
Speaker 3: And that's that they didn't have much defense, and with
1:09
Speaker 3: a little help from you know, other countries like France
1:11
Speaker 3: and whatnot, both giving mercenaries and weapons, they were able
1:17
Speaker 3: to combat them. But read the history of our country
1:20
Speaker 3: and the founding fathers and Independence Day. The more you
1:22
Speaker 3: read about it, the more chills you get, and you
1:24
Speaker 3: realize these guys were amazing. And by the way, alcohol
1:28
Speaker 3: played a big role in it. These If you read
1:31
Speaker 3: what the alcohol was, the alcohol bill was. Uh. The
1:36
Speaker 3: they drank a lot. Uh when they spent their weeks
1:39
Speaker 3: in Philadelphia calculating things and writing the Declaration of Independence,
1:43
Speaker 3: et cetera. Uh, there is this giant bill, this tab
1:46
Speaker 3: that they racked up for whiskeys and beer and things
1:50
Speaker 3: like that. These guys drank a lot because remember the
1:52
Speaker 3: water wasn't really safe as it was, so they used
1:54
Speaker 3: to add a little alcohol to it, and then they
1:56
Speaker 3: added a little more to it, and then they would
1:58
Speaker 3: get a little heated under the collar. And that's probably
2:00
Speaker 3: how a lot of their decisions were made. But worked
2:02
Speaker 3: for them. I don't recommend it today, but it worked
2:04
Speaker 3: for them. Seven ten WR the Voice of New York.
2:08
Speaker 3: Our pault lines are open. Give us a call. Take
2:10
Speaker 3: part in the conversation at eight hundred three two one
2:13
Speaker 3: zero seven ten, eight hundred three to two to one
2:16
Speaker 3: zero seven ten. This is Ken rostto TV news anchor
2:19
Speaker 3: Guy ken Rosotto. Remember I was on Channel seven for
2:22
Speaker 3: twenty years. I was on Good Day New York on
2:23
Speaker 3: Fox five for a year. I only did that a year,
2:27
Speaker 3: but it was a fun year. Good friends. I still
2:29
Speaker 3: have a Channel five two. We are in the middle
2:31
Speaker 3: of a heat wave. The tri State is going to
2:34
Speaker 3: see around ninety seven ninety eight degrees today. A few
2:37
Speaker 3: spots will break one hundred. Usually Newark is always a
2:40
Speaker 3: few degrees hotter. Then it's funny. Newark gets a little
2:44
Speaker 3: colder than New York in the winter. They call it
2:46
Speaker 3: cold as brick, the brick City, And it gets a
2:48
Speaker 3: little hotter than New York in the summer. And I
2:50
Speaker 3: think a lot of it is because they're sort of recessed.
2:53
Speaker 3: It's sort of a valley, and they get the weather
2:56
Speaker 3: kind of concentrated there. But Newark will probably break one hundred.
2:59
Speaker 3: New York again upper nineties. But the real feel the
3:02
Speaker 3: temperature humidity index. We used to call it years ago,
3:05
Speaker 3: when I was a baby in Radio Thchi, they called
3:07
Speaker 3: it the thchi. That means the humidity is going to
3:10
Speaker 3: make it feel a lot hotter. So you're talking one
3:13
Speaker 3: hundred and ten, but that's hot. So make sure kids, pets, relatives,
3:18
Speaker 3: we elderly relatives, we say it quickly. Make sure that
3:23
Speaker 3: your elderly relatives have air conditioning and that they are
3:26
Speaker 3: drinking a lot of water. Older people don't sense the
3:30
Speaker 3: heat like younger people do, and so they are likely
3:33
Speaker 3: to say, now, I'm comfortable, I'm fine. You walk into
3:35
Speaker 3: the room and it's like one hundred degrees and they
3:37
Speaker 3: don't realize they are dehydrating by sitting in that heat.
3:41
Speaker 3: Their bodies are still reacting, but they don't feel it.
3:44
Speaker 3: So if you are older, make sure you put on
3:46
Speaker 3: your air conditioning, even if it makes you feel a
3:48
Speaker 3: little uncomfortable. Get your air down at least to seventy eight,
3:52
Speaker 3: and make sure you drink plenty of water and actually
3:56
Speaker 3: a lot of Make sure you have bananas, potassium, gatorade,
3:59
Speaker 3: things like that too, because you don't want to deplete
4:02
Speaker 3: yourself of electrolytes. But water important. Electrolts also important. All right,
4:06
Speaker 3: sorry to give the lecture, but very important. And for
4:09
Speaker 3: those of you who love to make fun of the
4:10
Speaker 3: fact that I live in Florida a good chunk of
4:12
Speaker 3: the year. I'm in New York right now, but a
4:15
Speaker 3: lot of times I am in Fort Lauderdale, both when
4:18
Speaker 3: I'm broadcasting and not. And today in Fort Lauderdale the
4:21
Speaker 3: highest eighty six with lower humidity than New York. So
4:25
Speaker 3: the next time my friends say, how could you live
4:27
Speaker 3: in Florida? It's so hot and humid, especially in the summer, Well,
4:30
Speaker 3: it actually is cooler there in a lot of the
4:33
Speaker 3: summer days, on a lot of the summer days that
4:35
Speaker 3: it is in New York. And that's because when it
4:37
Speaker 3: hits ninety five or so in South Florida, we tend
4:40
Speaker 3: to get thunderstorms. The cool things down. It's sticky, it's uncomfortable,
4:45
Speaker 3: but at least it's not one hundred degrees plus. Everywhere
4:49
Speaker 3: in South Florida has really powerful air conditioning, whereas it's
4:52
Speaker 3: kind of hit and miss here in New York. You
4:54
Speaker 3: walk into places and the air conditioning units struggle to
4:57
Speaker 3: get things down to a certain temperature. R the Voice
5:01
Speaker 3: of New York it is Ken Risotto in for Mark
5:04
Speaker 3: on Thursday, and Izzi, our engineer, actually brought this up
5:07
Speaker 3: he said, yeah, you know, I have the air conditioning on.
5:09
Speaker 3: It's struggling. That's a great point. If you have your
5:14
Speaker 3: air conditioning on and right now you're saying, hey, I've
5:16
Speaker 3: had the air on all day, all night, and right
5:19
Speaker 3: now my room is only getting down to seventy seven.
5:22
Speaker 3: Air Conditioners are only meant to knock the temperature down
5:26
Speaker 3: ten to twenty degrees on average. If you have a
5:29
Speaker 3: big central air unit, maybe twenty five.
5:32
Speaker 4: That's it.
5:33
Speaker 3: So if it's one hundred and humid out, the best
5:36
Speaker 3: your air is going to get you down to. It's
5:37
Speaker 3: like eighty to seventy five. It's not going to get
5:40
Speaker 3: you down to sixty eight, even if you said it
5:42
Speaker 3: at sixty eight. In fact, it may even cause the
5:44
Speaker 3: coils to freeze. So don't rush to call the repair
5:47
Speaker 3: people immediately thinking your unit isn't working. When you get
5:51
Speaker 3: above one hundred degrees or around that, that is the
5:53
Speaker 3: best your air conditioning unit's going to do. It's going
5:56
Speaker 3: to give you about twenty degrees, so be happy to eighty.
6:00
Speaker 3: But that's why you should make sure you drink lots
6:02
Speaker 3: of fluids and hydrate.
6:04
Speaker 4: All right.
6:05
Speaker 3: We were talking earlier about gas prices dropping. They're continuing
6:08
Speaker 3: to drop, if you haven't noticed. Right now, the national
6:11
Speaker 3: average for a gallon of gas is down to three
6:13
Speaker 3: eighty five and by the end of the summer it
6:16
Speaker 3: should get down to lower than it was a year
6:19
Speaker 3: ago at this point, so it'll be lower than it
6:21
Speaker 3: has been in about seven or eight years, and that
6:25
Speaker 3: should happen by the end of the summer, so it'll
6:27
Speaker 3: be about three point fifteen three ten a gallon. And
6:31
Speaker 3: as that continues to happen, everything will drop in price, groceries, clothing,
6:36
Speaker 3: your weekly gas bill. Think about that. If it goes
6:39
Speaker 3: down by that much, you're talking about the average family
6:42
Speaker 3: saving maybe forty bucks a week. You multiply that, you
6:45
Speaker 3: that's two thousand dollars a year. It's a lot of
6:47
Speaker 3: money back in your family budget by those gas prices
6:51
Speaker 3: coming down. So that is definitely a good thing. Big
6:54
Speaker 3: decisions of course by Scotus the Supreme Court. This week,
6:57
Speaker 3: we just talked to somebody from a female athletes organization
7:03
Speaker 3: about the no biological males and female sports. And many
7:07
Speaker 3: people on the left, especially among the the I call
7:11
Speaker 3: them the extra letters. There's the LGBTQ I A plus Okay,
7:15
Speaker 3: the LGB community tends to be one of one mindset,
7:20
Speaker 3: and then the TQIA plus plus plus tends to be
7:24
Speaker 3: another community. The difference is LGP are lesbian, gay, bisexual,
7:29
Speaker 3: they like can. I don't want to hear all this art.
7:31
Speaker 3: Just I'll simplified as much as possible. These are people
7:35
Speaker 3: who live their true lives whatever, and they just happen
7:38
Speaker 3: to be attracted to people of the same sex, all right.
7:40
Speaker 3: Nothing different then the the TIA xx plus plus whatever
7:45
Speaker 3: are people who identify they call themselves queer, they identify differently,
7:50
Speaker 3: they think they're a different gender. But bu bah bah bah,
7:52
Speaker 3: all right. I'm not condemning anyone here, and I'm not criticizing.
7:56
Speaker 3: I'm just saying there is a difference because one is
7:59
Speaker 3: a sexual attraction and one is a psychological belief that
8:03
Speaker 3: is contrary to reality. All right. So and again that's
8:07
Speaker 3: not being mean. I'm not I'm not hurling an insult
8:10
Speaker 3: by saying that there is a difference between the two,
8:13
Speaker 3: all right. And that's why I think a lot of
8:15
Speaker 3: people in the gay community. Traditional people in the gay
8:17
Speaker 3: community are tired of being dragged into the transgender and
8:23
Speaker 3: queer identifying and gender non binary and blah blah blah.
8:26
Speaker 2: And on we go.
8:27
Speaker 3: There is a difference. So I don't understand the complaint
8:30
Speaker 3: from that community, because the Supreme Court simply said that
8:34
Speaker 3: each state has a right to allow none are people, say,
8:40
Speaker 3: born as biological males who identify as women. Okay, so
8:43
Speaker 3: trans women. Certain states will allow it in certain mood
8:48
Speaker 3: And the Supreme Court said, it's education is managed by
8:50
Speaker 3: the states, So let the states decide. That's all that
8:53
Speaker 3: they said, Just like with the abortion issue, let the
8:55
Speaker 3: states decide. Let it be a local issue. Because if
8:58
Speaker 3: your local morality and culture says one thing, then you
9:00
Speaker 3: go with that, and if it says something else, and
9:02
Speaker 3: you go with that. Title nine was set up by
9:06
Speaker 3: the US government in order to make sure that women
9:11
Speaker 3: have a place in sports, because they didn't because a
9:15
Speaker 3: woman could not compete fairly on a men's team. And
9:20
Speaker 3: under Title nine, literally, title line was thrown out when
9:23
Speaker 3: they started allowing biological males to identify as women to compete.
9:26
Speaker 3: And as I said earlier this morning, you don't ever
9:30
Speaker 3: see biological women identifying as men fighting to get onto
9:34
Speaker 3: men's teams because they would get their asses kicked. Excuse
9:37
Speaker 3: my slang, but yes, that's what would happen. They would
9:40
Speaker 3: get injured and they know that, and you just don't
9:43
Speaker 3: see that happening, which then makes you scratch your head
9:45
Speaker 3: and say, hmm, what's this all about. And if you
9:48
Speaker 3: are a biological male identifying as a woman, you're not
9:51
Speaker 3: being banned from sports. You can play on the boys team.
9:55
Speaker 3: You're allowed to play on the boat. You could dress
9:57
Speaker 3: up as you want, you could have long hair, you
9:59
Speaker 3: could put in fake and you could still compete on
10:01
Speaker 3: the boys team.
10:02
Speaker 2: You can do that.
10:03
Speaker 3: So it's not that you are being banned from sports.
10:07
Speaker 3: You are being banned from competing on a team of
10:10
Speaker 3: people who do not have the biological advantage that you
10:14
Speaker 3: have by being born male. But mister Redundo, mister Rosudo, oh,
10:17
Speaker 3: my kid had puberty blockers, so he didn't form it
10:20
Speaker 3: Adam's apple even with puberty blockers. You tell you talk
10:24
Speaker 3: to any doctor or with his or her salt, and
10:26
Speaker 3: they will tell you that biological males are born with
10:30
Speaker 3: a different physical frame. They're born taller, longer, bigger shoulders,
10:35
Speaker 3: bigger arms, and they have their little twitch cells respond
10:39
Speaker 3: differently in sports. So biological males, whether they have testosterone
10:43
Speaker 3: in them or not, and there's always a little testosterone
10:46
Speaker 3: from birth. By the way, they will respond differently than
10:49
Speaker 3: biological females. So it is just not fair to allow
10:53
Speaker 3: a biological male to compete on a team of biological females,
10:57
Speaker 3: whether they identify as male females somewhere in between, somewhere
11:00
Speaker 3: from out of space. Let's just stop the ridiculousness. We
11:04
Speaker 3: have girls getting hurt. They're getting hurt because they're playing
11:09
Speaker 3: against biological males and having volleyballs slammed at them at
11:13
Speaker 3: ninety miles an hour, crossing brain damage. If it was
11:16
Speaker 3: your daughter, would you accept that, No, you would not.
11:19
Speaker 3: And it's just well, it's just because they're playing in
11:21
Speaker 3: the sport. No, it wouldn't have happened playing against women.
11:24
Speaker 3: It happened because in one team, the female athlete was
11:28
Speaker 3: playing against a male athlete who slammed a volleyball into
11:31
Speaker 3: her head at a speed three times what a woman
11:33
Speaker 3: would have hit it at. That's why, and it's not fair.
11:37
Speaker 4: And all the.
11:37
Speaker 3: Young girls who work their whole school careers to get
11:40
Speaker 3: to a point where they could compete and get a scholarship,
11:43
Speaker 3: they're having those scholarships ripped from their arms. And there's
11:46
Speaker 3: nowhere to appeal because some good hearted liberals think it's
11:50
Speaker 3: this better to be pro transgender community, thinking that forgetting
11:55
Speaker 3: everything else, we just have to be pro trans, pro
11:58
Speaker 3: legal alien pro back. As long as the's anti Trump,
12:01
Speaker 3: that's all that matters. Stop it, stop it, step back,
12:05
Speaker 3: see the reality before you make up your mind. Seven
12:09
Speaker 3: ten wore the voice of New York Hen Rosotto in
12:13
Speaker 3: for Mark on a Thursday, and we will take calls
12:15
Speaker 3: to eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten.
12:18
Speaker 3: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten. We've
12:20
Speaker 3: got a couple of minutes here. I want to talk
12:21
Speaker 3: also about birthright citizenship. I think this is the biggest
12:26
Speaker 3: mistake the US Supreme Court possibly ever made. And I
12:32
Speaker 3: know that's it sounds hyperbolic, but I mean that probably
12:36
Speaker 3: the biggest mistake they have ever made. And why do
12:40
Speaker 3: I say that? Well, first off, whatever Western nations had
12:45
Speaker 3: birthright citizenship almost to the nation, in the last few decades,
12:50
Speaker 3: they've gotten rid of it because it's ridiculous you as
12:54
Speaker 3: an infant, being born from your mother, you don't have
12:57
Speaker 3: any say or control as to what country you're born in.
13:00
Speaker 3: All right, If a woman, say a woman is from
13:03
Speaker 3: an enemy country. I say an enemy country doesn't mean
13:05
Speaker 3: they hate America, but a country that is not on
13:07
Speaker 3: a good stance with America. Say you're from Iran and
13:11
Speaker 3: you happen to be on a cruise ship from somewhere
13:13
Speaker 3: from Europe where they could board a cruise ship, and
13:16
Speaker 3: that cruise ship happens to dock in New York on
13:18
Speaker 3: its way to another location. They fill up with fuel,
13:20
Speaker 3: they dock in New York. Woman gives birth while on
13:24
Speaker 3: that cruise ship. That child's an American citizen. Now that
13:27
Speaker 3: woman could hate America, doesn't want their kid being an
13:30
Speaker 3: American citizen. But based on the silliness, now that the
13:33
Speaker 3: Supreme Court has decided that child is an American, they
13:37
Speaker 3: can go back to Iran. They could indoctrinate the kid.
13:40
Speaker 3: Has Bullock could have a field day with the kid
13:43
Speaker 3: and teach the kid that America is the great Satan.
13:46
Speaker 3: And at eighteen, or at any age actually, but at eighteen,
13:49
Speaker 3: that kid can independently come back to the United States,
13:52
Speaker 3: could even run for president because they are not a
13:54
Speaker 3: naturalized citizen, they are a born American and they could
14:00
Speaker 3: run for president hating the United States and wanting to
14:04
Speaker 3: wage ghad on the United States. I'm just giving you
14:07
Speaker 3: an example of the can of worms now opened by
14:10
Speaker 3: our illustrious Supreme Court Justice Roberts, who always wants to
14:14
Speaker 3: make everybody happy because he's an anti Trumper. He was
14:18
Speaker 3: a bush guy, very liberal Republican type. He is not
14:21
Speaker 3: a conservative by any stretch. And he's been caught on
14:24
Speaker 3: audio saying that, oh, under Obamacare, remember the big Obamacare debate,
14:28
Speaker 3: go back, you'll find it online where he was cast saying, well,
14:31
Speaker 3: we can't do that because the country would go crazy. So,
14:33
Speaker 3: in other words, he already played his hand, He already
14:36
Speaker 3: showed the cards close to the vest that it wasn't
14:39
Speaker 3: all about what is legal and just. It was about
14:42
Speaker 3: making sure that the American people don't go crazy by
14:45
Speaker 3: our decision. That is not supposed to play into it. Remember,
14:48
Speaker 3: justice is blind. You're supposed to look at the letter
14:51
Speaker 3: of the law and interpret it. But between him and
14:53
Speaker 3: Amy Cony Barrett, who has become the biggest disappointment ever,
14:58
Speaker 3: and as a friend of mine said, that's the last
15:00
Speaker 3: time a woman will get appointed to the Supreme Court
15:03
Speaker 3: by the Republican party. It seems that anytime Republicans appoint
15:06
Speaker 3: a woman to the Supreme Court. They start out looking
15:08
Speaker 3: conservative and in five years they become more liberal than
15:11
Speaker 3: the most liberal justices. So stop trying to vote playing
15:16
Speaker 3: the Dei card game here, okay, and just vote on
15:20
Speaker 3: their record, their record on the court. Please, But just
15:25
Speaker 3: looking at the can of worms, it's been open. It's scary.
15:28
Speaker 3: Birthright tourism in Florida. I used to live in the
15:32
Speaker 3: city of Hollywood, Florida. There are condo buildings all right
15:36
Speaker 3: that have two hundred, two hundred and fifty units in
15:38
Speaker 3: them that have been bought up by wealthy Russians Ola Gox,
15:42
Speaker 3: Like Bernie would say, Ola Gox, They're all Olagax, and
15:46
Speaker 3: they have bought these buildings and literally converted them into
15:50
Speaker 3: birthright centers. So they charge wealthy Russians twenty five fifty
15:55
Speaker 3: thousand dollars to come for a month that they're in
15:56
Speaker 3: their last month of pregnancy. You get put up in
15:59
Speaker 3: this really nice condo on the water, You get fed
16:01
Speaker 3: three meals. There are doctors and nurses, and literally you
16:04
Speaker 3: give birth to your baby there and somebody takes care
16:07
Speaker 3: of it. There are lawyers in the building that get
16:08
Speaker 3: the kid the birth certificate. Then you fly back to Russia.
16:11
Speaker 3: It's all part of the package, and that they openly
16:15
Speaker 3: advertise it. If you go between Hollywood and Surfside and Sunnyside, Florida,
16:19
Speaker 3: Sny Isles Beach, Florida, I should say, up and down
16:21
Speaker 3: the coast on a one A, you will see building
16:23
Speaker 3: after building after building with all the signs written inkurrillic
16:25
Speaker 3: in Russian. And those people are taking part in this trade.
16:29
Speaker 3: They don't even keep it a secret. It's wide open.
16:32
Speaker 3: And once those kids are born, they are American citizens.
16:35
Speaker 3: Mommy takes them back to Russia. At eighteen, the kid
16:38
Speaker 3: comes back to the US and can now petition to
16:41
Speaker 3: have their parents brought to the US with them as
16:44
Speaker 3: a sponsor. And they are born American citizens so they
16:47
Speaker 3: can't be kicked out of the country. Think about that.
16:51
Speaker 3: Seven ten WR The Voice of New York eight hundred
16:54
Speaker 3: and three to two one zero seven ten sunny, hot
16:57
Speaker 3: and humid. Today heat wave continues high's upper nineties humidity
17:00
Speaker 3: making it feel worse than that. And coming up later,
17:02
Speaker 3: we'll speak with brand and digital strategist Fisher. Wall Street
17:05
Speaker 3: is cheering Meta's big new push into cloud computing. No
17:09
Speaker 3: more do you need that big storage drive, even as
17:12
Speaker 3: the move could mean lower profit margins. But your calls
17:15
Speaker 3: are next. We will take those calls in just a
17:17
Speaker 3: minute eight hundred and three to two one zero seven,
17:19
Speaker 3: ten eleven, twenty three, seven ten war coming.
17:22
Speaker 2: Right back now more of the marximone show on seven
17:25
Speaker 2: to ten. Woar Filling in for Mark here again is
17:29
Speaker 2: Ken Rosatto da Her.
17:31
Speaker 4: Good morning to you.
17:32
Speaker 3: Let's go right to the busy phones and we take
17:34
Speaker 3: Vincent and Brooklyn.
17:35
Speaker 5: Good morning, sir, Good morning kenon happy of an independent
17:39
Speaker 5: stay in in Antichi po. Ken. The story you talked
17:44
Speaker 5: about of an Iranian woman getting on a cruise ship
17:47
Speaker 5: and stopping in the United States and giving birth to
17:50
Speaker 5: a baby, well, similar thing happened to my paternal grandmother
17:55
Speaker 5: in nineteen oh six. She and my grandfather were coming
17:59
Speaker 5: from Midaly and they were in the US continental Waters.
18:03
Speaker 5: My grandmother went into labor and the ship was coming here,
18:06
Speaker 5: it was going Ellis Island, went into labor. By the
18:10
Speaker 5: time she got to Ellis Island, she had my uncle,
18:13
Speaker 5: Mike and Harams. My uncle didn't become a US citizen
18:18
Speaker 5: until my grandmother and grandfather were US citizens, and that
18:23
Speaker 5: was many years later. They didn't automatically say to my grandmother, oh,
18:29
Speaker 5: my uncle Mike's name was mcallay. They didn't automatically say, oh,
18:34
Speaker 5: McLay because he was born in US continental water, that
18:37
Speaker 5: when you arrived at Ellis Island, was you had a
18:42
Speaker 5: newborn baby, He's er an automatic citizen. That's the truth.
18:46
Speaker 5: I actually have the passenger list of the ship and
18:49
Speaker 5: the ship's flock, and to prove it.
18:52
Speaker 3: And imagine if it were today, they could have been
18:54
Speaker 3: fought in court or whatever, and Uncle Mike would have
18:57
Speaker 3: won because the difference it made isn Mike was probably
19:01
Speaker 3: now a naturalized American as opposed to a born American,
19:04
Speaker 3: which means Uncle Mike, had he ever wanted to become president,
19:07
Speaker 3: would have not been able to. But because he actually
19:10
Speaker 3: was born in US territorial waters, he should have been
19:12
Speaker 3: able to. But this whole, the whole idea though, of Vincent.
19:16
Speaker 3: I just got to bring this out, the whole idea
19:18
Speaker 3: of just by accident or intent, coming here in the
19:22
Speaker 3: eighth and a half month and giving birth in order
19:25
Speaker 3: to have the baby be an American. It just are
19:28
Speaker 3: we all stupid? Are we suckers? And we're just going
19:31
Speaker 3: to stand here and take it. Do the Democrats really
19:34
Speaker 3: hate America that much and Republicans just stand by and
19:38
Speaker 3: take this. I don't get it.
19:40
Speaker 5: Ken, That's why all of the dead World countries are
19:43
Speaker 5: coming here and gaming the system. Ken. If an American
19:48
Speaker 5: woman wasn't Rome right now on a tour, went to
19:52
Speaker 5: visit Rome and all of a sudden she broke awa
19:55
Speaker 5: was she gave birth? Your kid is in an Italian citizen,
19:59
Speaker 5: you know, it's upset. And that's why everybody's coming here
20:03
Speaker 5: and game in the system. Ken. They actually have online
20:07
Speaker 5: from whatever country you want, these manuals, so you could
20:11
Speaker 5: get online how to come in here and game the systems.
20:14
Speaker 3: And I don't know if you heard me down when
20:15
Speaker 3: I'm down in Florida, they actually have billboards out. They're
20:18
Speaker 3: not not giants the highway billboards, but near the buildings
20:21
Speaker 3: like bus boards.
20:22
Speaker 5: Building. I heard what I want. Thank God. In Italy,
20:26
Speaker 5: if you're going to have a sign in like Chinese,
20:28
Speaker 5: it has to be an Italian first, Chinese second. You
20:32
Speaker 5: can't have any public signs that are just in a
20:35
Speaker 5: foreign language in Italy. That's a good thing.
20:38
Speaker 3: It makes sense. And by the way, all the Western
20:41
Speaker 3: countries the European countries that used to have birthright citizenship,
20:44
Speaker 3: like France, Great Britain, Ireland, they all got rid of it.
20:46
Speaker 4: It's done.
20:47
Speaker 2: We're the only Italy. It was never affect right.
20:50
Speaker 5: Never a fact. Ken I was going for my dual
20:53
Speaker 5: citizenship a number of years ago. I had a jump
20:57
Speaker 5: through hoops. I had a show that my grandparents came
21:02
Speaker 5: here before a certain date, this, that and the other.
21:05
Speaker 5: You have to jump through hoops, and I had to
21:08
Speaker 5: show that I was, you know, Italian of Italian origin.
21:14
Speaker 5: Now that's not the case. Come here, have a baby,
21:16
Speaker 5: game the system, get welfare, food stamps, whatever you want,
21:20
Speaker 5: and don't worry the suckers down the block, the Americans,
21:25
Speaker 5: they'll pay for it.
21:26
Speaker 3: Vincent, if you had come here and you had a baby,
21:28
Speaker 3: I would have scratched my head. Hey, I love you,
21:33
Speaker 3: Buona fast. I enjoy your Fourth of July. Happy Independence
21:36
Speaker 3: name kayet day. All right, have a great take care
21:41
Speaker 3: Joe at Elwood Park. We got about thirty seconds left.
21:44
Speaker 3: Good morning right on?
21:46
Speaker 6: Can good morning?
21:46
Speaker 5: Can't good morning right right on?
21:48
Speaker 4: Vincent?
21:48
Speaker 6: Oh, And like Vincent pointed out, with the gas, that
21:52
Speaker 6: gas was refined six months ago. The oil coming he's
21:57
Speaker 6: not a Republican or Democrat. This is the gougers and
22:03
Speaker 6: the oil companies.
22:03
Speaker 3: They're they're prostitutes, Yeah, they're they're gas futures. People buy,
22:07
Speaker 3: they invest in gas futures, and that's what makes the
22:09
Speaker 3: prices going.
22:10
Speaker 6: I'm out a gas station for sixty years. This goes
22:12
Speaker 6: back to the original. Uh, there never was a gas shows.
22:15
Speaker 2: It was just to get the price correct.
22:17
Speaker 3: And I'm sure your uncle made three cents a gallon
22:19
Speaker 3: on that gas owning the station, right They they don't
22:22
Speaker 3: make a big profit.
22:22
Speaker 6: On that, right and Vincent Point got out too one time.
22:26
Speaker 3: Yep, right on, Ken, Hey Joe, I appreciate it. Happy
22:28
Speaker 3: independence they my friend Kevin, thank you very much. All Right,
22:32
Speaker 3: It is Thursday, Ken Rosotto and for Mark. Coming up
22:34
Speaker 3: in our next staff hour, we'll talk with Brandon digital
22:36
Speaker 3: strategist Fisher about Meta's big new push into cloud computing
22:40
Speaker 3: and what it means for you.
22:42
Speaker 1: This is the Mark Simone Show on seven ten wr
22:46
Speaker 1: Kin from Mark Today.
22:47
Speaker 2: Here's Ken Rosotto.
22:50
Speaker 3: Good to be with you. We go to the phone
22:53
Speaker 3: right now. We talk about Wall Street. Wall Street is
22:56
Speaker 3: cheering Meta's big new push into cloud computing, even as
22:59
Speaker 3: the move could mean lower profit margins. And SpaceX is
23:02
Speaker 3: taking artificial intelligence to literal new heights, and that is
23:07
Speaker 3: because of its new orbital AI computer satellite called AI one.
23:11
Speaker 3: Let us speak to brand and digital strategis Fisher. He
23:14
Speaker 3: could be found on X and threads at Fisher and
23:16
Speaker 3: at his website Fisher Media. Good morning Fisher, Good morning Ken.
23:20
Speaker 3: How are you doing well? So to talk about SpaceX
23:23
Speaker 3: and artificial intelligence? We hear so much about AI and
23:26
Speaker 3: what is this new orbital AI computer satellite.
23:29
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's the first satellite designed exclusively for running AI
23:33
Speaker 7: in orbit, not for Internet like their starlink, but for
23:37
Speaker 7: the high power computing as it floats thirty seven hundred
23:41
Speaker 7: miles above the Earth.
23:42
Speaker 4: So with traditional terrestrial.
23:45
Speaker 7: I guess traditional is a loose word here, but terrestrial
23:47
Speaker 7: data centers. You hear the problems with power grids and
23:51
Speaker 7: cooling water in space. You don't have power problems, right,
23:54
Speaker 7: constant sunlight for free twenty four to seven solar power
23:57
Speaker 7: and then the radiate of cooling in the back in space,
24:01
Speaker 7: no water or massive chillers are needed. So Elon Musk says,
24:05
Speaker 7: the AI one is easier to build. It's just a
24:09
Speaker 7: basic large solar array, big radiator for heat, laser links
24:15
Speaker 7: for data. That's how they would shoot the data back
24:17
Speaker 7: to Earth and then swappable modules that I guess SpaceX
24:21
Speaker 7: can go up there and just swap out. I don't
24:24
Speaker 7: know the pieces of it, if needed, but it's just
24:27
Speaker 7: the first. SpaceX aims for a massive network potentially up
24:30
Speaker 7: to a million satellites that could deliver gigawatts of AI
24:34
Speaker 7: capacity using starship launches starting around twenty twenty eight.
24:38
Speaker 4: So that's pretty pretty close. So experts debate.
24:41
Speaker 3: I'd be to step on your fisher, steph er. I
24:43
Speaker 3: just want to back up per second. So all the
24:45
Speaker 3: local communities, like I know in New Jersey there are
24:47
Speaker 3: communities showing up at city council meetings protesting AI centers
24:51
Speaker 3: being built. That could all be a thing of the past.
24:53
Speaker 3: This potentially would solve all the problems because you're not
24:57
Speaker 3: talking about building an AI center that would take up
24:59
Speaker 3: a tonne of line, that would take up all the
25:01
Speaker 3: electricity from the area, and that would you'd have to
25:04
Speaker 3: like tap into a river to cool everything off. That
25:06
Speaker 3: could all be done in space and you would never
25:08
Speaker 3: know the difference on the ground.
25:10
Speaker 7: Correct, And I mean We've talked about different ways that
25:13
Speaker 7: companies are going about this, creating smaller sort of AI
25:17
Speaker 7: center data centers that could be attached to houses and
25:20
Speaker 7: you get paid for the use of your internet and
25:22
Speaker 7: your electricity.
25:23
Speaker 4: So yeah, this is part of the diversification.
25:25
Speaker 7: I assume as we become more reliant on data centers overall,
25:31
Speaker 7: not just for AI but just in general, that this
25:33
Speaker 7: will be helpful. But we'll probably need more, sadly than
25:37
Speaker 7: a million satellites.
25:38
Speaker 4: To do this.
25:38
Speaker 7: Plus also, if you think about it, it puts those
25:41
Speaker 7: satellites in range of other countries that might want to
25:45
Speaker 7: do damage to the United States or do damage to infrastructure.
25:49
Speaker 7: It allows, you know, it kind of puts it out there.
25:51
Speaker 7: So you know, I think this is a way to,
25:54
Speaker 7: as your point, you know, get away from the local
25:58
Speaker 7: municipalities having to deal with data centers.
26:00
Speaker 4: But I don't think it's a complete solution.
26:02
Speaker 3: So now we talked briefly here about Meta and their
26:05
Speaker 3: big push into cloud computing. But it could mean lower
26:07
Speaker 3: profit margins.
26:08
Speaker 7: Why would that be because they're currently ninety eight percent
26:12
Speaker 7: of their revenue is on advertising, and that is about
26:15
Speaker 7: an eighty two percent gross margin based on you know,
26:20
Speaker 7: the the what they have to do in order to
26:22
Speaker 7: put advertising on their platforms. But Google Google Cloud, for example,
26:26
Speaker 7: operates at an eighteen percent margin. Because you have all
26:30
Speaker 7: the data centers, you have, the computers, you have, you
26:32
Speaker 7: know whatever, people, the electricity, the water, all that, so
26:36
Speaker 7: the margins are much lower. But Wall Street was happy
26:39
Speaker 7: about it. Yesterday stocks for Meta. Shares for Meta went
26:42
Speaker 7: up nine percent yesterday. They're down four percent today. But
26:45
Speaker 7: it's exciting because also this will be a way for
26:48
Speaker 7: them to offset expenses. CEO Mark Zuckerberg wants to sell
26:53
Speaker 7: the excess computing power to external customers and again cloud
26:58
Speaker 7: computing like Google Cloud or micro Soft Azure, Amazon Web Services.
27:02
Speaker 7: That's so being able to use Meta's compute power to
27:06
Speaker 7: you know, have your websites hosted, things like that, but
27:09
Speaker 7: also offer access to AI models, just again as a
27:13
Speaker 7: way to monetize their AI infrastructure. They spend billions and
27:17
Speaker 7: I mean Meta, all of them do, but Meta spends
27:20
Speaker 7: billions of dollars per year on AI. So this sort
27:24
Speaker 7: of will help them offset some of the costs.
27:26
Speaker 3: So by having lower profit margins, will they just make
27:29
Speaker 3: up for it in terms of quantity because they'll have
27:31
Speaker 3: so many millions of people using the service.
27:34
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it's possible a lot of companies will
27:37
Speaker 7: use it. But again, what this does and what Wall
27:39
Speaker 7: Street and I didn't dig into either down four percent today,
27:43
Speaker 7: but it does instead of investors knowing that, you know,
27:47
Speaker 7: ninety eight percent of the revenue currently is with advertising
27:50
Speaker 7: and it has a you know, certain up and down.
27:54
Speaker 7: Now that you add this you know, kind of third
27:57
Speaker 7: piece into it, or kind of a third party if
28:00
Speaker 7: you will, of the computing power, not knowing it what
28:03
Speaker 7: it can do, that really will change the way that
28:06
Speaker 7: investors look at Meta and it, you know, because it
28:09
Speaker 7: won't be ninety eight percent of the revenue on advertising.
28:11
Speaker 7: Now you're going to be a certain percent off using
28:15
Speaker 7: excess computing power, offering access to AI models.
28:19
Speaker 4: You know. So it changes it up a bit and
28:21
Speaker 4: Wall Street will react accordingly.
28:23
Speaker 3: I think a lot of maybe Wall Street being down
28:25
Speaker 3: four percent, that's likely because a lot of people are
28:27
Speaker 3: on vacation already. Today is the day that a lot
28:29
Speaker 3: of people escape, and so it's very possible that just
28:32
Speaker 3: not as many traders there. And then tomorrow, I think
28:34
Speaker 3: is a national holiday, and as it's the recognized national holiday,
28:37
Speaker 3: so I believe all the financial centers are closed.
28:40
Speaker 4: So there have it.
28:41
Speaker 3: They've all they've all escaped town already, and they're not
28:44
Speaker 3: thinking about investments right now. Well, I guess they're always
28:47
Speaker 3: thinking about investments, aren't they. They just don't actually trade
28:50
Speaker 3: on these days there with the families in the station wagon.
28:53
Speaker 3: Do people still have station wagons now? They don't, do they?
28:57
Speaker 3: I'm showing my age very quickly. Where do you see
29:00
Speaker 3: this going with cloud computing? Will there even be memory
29:04
Speaker 3: chips in phones and whatnot in the future or will
29:07
Speaker 3: everything be on the cloud In a way, A lot.
29:10
Speaker 4: Of things are on the cloud already.
29:11
Speaker 7: If you use Google, you know, try to access your
29:13
Speaker 7: calendar or your Gmail when your computer's down or your
29:17
Speaker 7: phone's offline you don't have cell service. I mean a
29:19
Speaker 7: lot of things are going to the cloud. Yes, your
29:21
Speaker 7: phones might be more reliant on the cloud. There still
29:25
Speaker 7: will be storage locally because you need to have some
29:28
Speaker 7: of that even to process the data from the cloud.
29:31
Speaker 7: But yeah, it'll be interesting to see how far we
29:34
Speaker 7: go where you know, do your lights work if your
29:36
Speaker 7: internet doesn't. Yeah, it's gonna be dicey. It's not great
29:41
Speaker 7: in thinking about it, but you know, also in terms
29:43
Speaker 7: of jobs. I know that's you know, a big discussion
29:46
Speaker 7: that's been happening for months and into years now. Companies
29:50
Speaker 7: are realizing that maybe they cut too much for AI
29:52
Speaker 7: and are hiring people back. So you know, I think
29:55
Speaker 7: that you know, maybe the pendulum will swing the other
29:57
Speaker 7: way and they realize that they do need folks. And
30:00
Speaker 7: also that having everything in the cloud and not you know,
30:02
Speaker 7: not everybody has high speed internet. There is the middle
30:04
Speaker 7: of the country or poorer parts of the New York
30:08
Speaker 7: State or Jersey or you know, Long Island that people
30:11
Speaker 7: don't have fiber or you know, a cable internet, so
30:16
Speaker 7: you know they have to account for that as well.
30:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely a lot of places. And all you need
30:21
Speaker 3: is to have a big storm come through your area
30:23
Speaker 3: here in the Tri State and wipe out your electricity
30:25
Speaker 3: and your internet for a few hours, and you quickly
30:28
Speaker 3: discover because remember you still need power to run the
30:31
Speaker 3: cell towers and whatnot.
30:32
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, I mean I just saw New York.
30:34
Speaker 7: I know you're in it, everybody's in it, but you know,
30:36
Speaker 7: it could get so much that it overwhelms the systems
30:39
Speaker 7: and they shut down. Then you're without power and without
30:42
Speaker 7: internet and without access to certain things.
30:44
Speaker 2: And that's where a.
30:45
Speaker 7: Lot of people, I mean, ask anybody who works from home.
30:47
Speaker 7: They know what happens when the Internet goes down. You're
30:49
Speaker 7: trying to work, you can't. You just sit there and
30:51
Speaker 7: hope Microsoft Teams doesn't come back.
30:53
Speaker 3: That's why, that's why Elon is hoping everybody will switch
30:55
Speaker 3: over to starlink at one point. All right, Brandon Digital
30:59
Speaker 3: he is.
30:59
Speaker 7: We could talk about this next time, but he is
31:01
Speaker 7: delving into the cellular world.
31:02
Speaker 3: Oh heck he is, Yes, he is. I know T
31:05
Speaker 3: Mobile already has that as the backup wherever they don't
31:08
Speaker 3: have cell service, right, that's the option offered right now.
31:11
Speaker 3: It's amazing. Brand and digital strategist Fisher found on x
31:14
Speaker 3: and threads at at Fisher or at his website Fisher
31:18
Speaker 3: dot Media. Thanks for coming on this morning, sir.
31:21
Speaker 4: Thanks Ken, have a great day.
31:22
Speaker 3: You two and happy fourth. And it is Ken Rosato
31:24
Speaker 3: and from Mark. On your Thursday, I almost said Friday,
31:27
Speaker 3: it feels like a friday. It's a Thursday. When we
31:29
Speaker 3: come back, we will take more of your calls. That
31:31
Speaker 3: number is one eight hundred three two one zero seven
31:34
Speaker 3: ten eight hundred three two one zero seven ten We
31:38
Speaker 3: want to have those calls. Put them on here in
31:40
Speaker 3: just a couple of minutes here seven ten WR.
31:42
Speaker 1: Now more of the Marximone Show on seven ten WR
31:47
Speaker 1: filling in for Mark.
31:48
Speaker 2: Here again is Ken Rosatto.
31:50
Speaker 3: So nice to be with you on a Thursday, we
31:52
Speaker 3: go straight to our busy phones. Jack in Wisconsin, Good morning,
31:55
Speaker 3: you're on the Marx Simone Show.
31:56
Speaker 8: Hey, Ken, you're doing a great job for Mark. You've
32:00
Speaker 8: got a kind of a thought about this anchor baby situation.
32:03
Speaker 8: I hope that if President Trump can't get this resolved
32:07
Speaker 8: with Congress, that he could look at it as a
32:10
Speaker 8: national security issue because these people they come over here
32:13
Speaker 8: and they have those babies, and how they've had a
32:16
Speaker 8: million of them already or whatever the number is. What's
32:19
Speaker 8: to stop them from coming back in thirty thirty five
32:23
Speaker 8: years and running for president The way these Democrats are
32:26
Speaker 8: going socialists, they definitely back a socialist Chinese person. I mean,
32:32
Speaker 8: if he can't get them to do away with the
32:35
Speaker 8: anchor baby, they should have some kind of clause and
32:37
Speaker 8: they're where if you're going to hold government office, you
32:40
Speaker 8: should have to have lived in this country for I
32:42
Speaker 8: don't know three quarters of your life before you could
32:44
Speaker 8: run for public office or something. If you're you can
32:47
Speaker 8: be you can be a citizen because you were born here.
32:50
Speaker 8: But to be president, I mean that shouldn't be a
32:53
Speaker 8: You should have lived here one hundred percent of your life.
32:56
Speaker 3: So you're westernized, you would think, and you would think
32:58
Speaker 3: that just by virtue of your it would disqualify you.
33:01
Speaker 3: But with the crazies that we have in this country today,
33:04
Speaker 3: because socialists have literally infiltrated our universities and indoctrinated our students,
33:09
Speaker 3: you have one or two generations of kids who think
33:11
Speaker 3: it's just fine. Yeah, America sucks. America was founded on
33:15
Speaker 3: lies and evil. When you indoctrinate kids with that and
33:18
Speaker 3: they think, oh, well, these intelligent, informed people say this,
33:21
Speaker 3: so it must be true. And this is where they
33:23
Speaker 3: come up and you try to tell them the opposite,
33:25
Speaker 3: and they think you're just an idiot. You don't understand
33:27
Speaker 3: these professors are telling us this. Then this is what
33:30
Speaker 3: they are spewing. Once they get into society and they
33:33
Speaker 3: get out of school, they think they know what's right
33:36
Speaker 3: and that's it, and they are fine with somebody who
33:38
Speaker 3: is not born and raised in America coming in and
33:41
Speaker 3: running things and that's how you lose our democratic republic.
33:44
Speaker 3: You know what's amazing, Jack, there are people who have
33:48
Speaker 3: said already this could be remedied with one quick fix
33:51
Speaker 3: with Congress that the definition of subject to the what
33:56
Speaker 3: is it subject to the jurisdiction thereof? That's the line
34:00
Speaker 3: in the fourteenth Amendment that was debated at the Supreme Court.
34:04
Speaker 3: One of the ways the Supreme Court interpreted well, the
34:06
Speaker 3: way they interpreted it is when you're born in the
34:10
Speaker 3: United States, you are subject to the jurisdiction of the
34:12
Speaker 3: laws of the United States. But it's never been clearly
34:15
Speaker 3: stated in the Constitution what that means. So several constitutional
34:19
Speaker 3: experts have said, as long as Congress comes up and
34:22
Speaker 3: defines what subject to the jurisdiction thereof means that that
34:26
Speaker 3: could fix the problem. So we'll see if we get
34:28
Speaker 3: the experts to figure it out. But you know, years
34:31
Speaker 3: ago you would have had a constitutional convention to fix
34:33
Speaker 3: it already, But the Democrats won't have anything to do
34:35
Speaker 3: with that. Jack in Wisconsin, thank you so much for
34:37
