- 0:00Speaker 1: Here he is. Everybody loves this guy. Comedic doctor, extraordinary.
- 0:04Speaker 1: Michael Rappaport, Michael, good morning, buddy, how are you.
- 0:08Speaker 2: Sid You got it exactly right. That's why I chose
- 0:11Speaker 2: that song. Also, it's a Friday, the weather's nice. Wanted
- 0:15Speaker 2: to start the day off slow and then build some
- 0:17Speaker 2: momentum into the weekend. Didn't want to come in with
- 0:20Speaker 2: too much. Ron RYE after the nixt what did they
- 0:23Speaker 2: win by seventy points? Last nime?
- 0:25Speaker 1: Mike, I've been watching basketball a long time and I
- 0:28Speaker 1: just turned fifty nine last Sunday. I've never seen a
- 0:32Speaker 1: game where it was seventy two to twenty two in
- 0:36Speaker 1: the second quarter.
- 0:37Speaker 2: Ever, yeah, me, neither. I've never seen a regular season game,
- 0:41Speaker 2: a preseason game. I've never you know, I coached a
- 0:44Speaker 2: championship team in California thirteen year olds. We won the championship.
- 0:50Speaker 2: That's a different story for a different day. I've never
- 0:52Speaker 2: seen that kind of rom But listen, we won the series.
- 0:56Speaker 2: We were supposed to win the series, and that's it.
- 1:00Speaker 2: That's all it was. It's a first round victory of
- 1:02Speaker 2: a team that was struggling, the Atlanta Hawks, and now
- 1:05Speaker 2: we move on. There's nothing to celebrate, nothing to get
- 1:08Speaker 2: cocky about. We have a Philadelphia team that is, you know,
- 1:12Speaker 2: starting to click, and obviously Boston's always going to be
- 1:14Speaker 2: a problem. And it's only the second round. It's nothing.
- 1:18Speaker 2: We've been through this. Every time we talk about the
- 1:20Speaker 2: Nick sid we talk about the heartbreak, the horror, just
- 1:26Speaker 2: the devastation. So it's the second round and now we
- 1:29Speaker 2: move forward. That's it.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Well, you talk about Boston, I mean, they're not going
- 1:33Speaker 1: to lose a Game seven at home. But it is shocking.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Almost as shocking as the Knicks second quarter score last
- 1:40Speaker 1: night is the fact that the seventy six ers have
- 1:42Speaker 1: moved this to a seventh game.
- 1:45Speaker 2: I'm not that surprised. You know, Joel Embiid is when
- 1:48Speaker 2: he's healthy, if he could stay healthy, I mean he's
- 1:50Speaker 2: literally gained the game. But if he could stay healthy,
- 1:55Speaker 2: you know, he's a whole other beast out there. So
- 1:59Speaker 2: I wouldn't be listen, I wouldn't bet against Boston in
- 2:03Speaker 2: Game seven, But I was thinking about this. If the
- 2:07Speaker 2: Knicks play Philly, I hate the Philadelphia fans, love the
- 2:11Speaker 2: city of Philly, I love the people of Philadelphia, But
- 2:15Speaker 2: as far as Philadelphia, Philadelphia Eagle fans. Let me ask
- 2:18Speaker 2: you this, which fans do you think are more despicable,
- 2:22Speaker 2: more savage Boston sports fans or Philadelphia sports.
- 2:26Speaker 1: It's not even close. Philadelphia fans are the biggest scumbags
- 2:30Speaker 1: in the country, not even close.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Over Philly.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Philly's the worst, not Boston Philly.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, okay. I mean, I don't know, Sid.
- 2:41Speaker 2: It's tough, man, It is tough to those those Patriots
- 2:44Speaker 2: fans in their heyday. Obviously you know they're they're you know,
- 2:48Speaker 2: on the way back, but in their heyday and Boston
- 2:52Speaker 2: Red Sox fans, this is a corrosion. This is a corrosion.
- 2:55Speaker 2: This is a breed into itself, Boston Red Sox fans.
- 2:59Speaker 2: And then you have the brew In Sands. I don't
- 3:01Speaker 2: even know how they still that place up. They let
- 3:04Speaker 2: people out of prison to go watch these animals, and
- 3:06Speaker 2: I mean this is these are animals. And I'll never
- 3:09Speaker 2: forget as a child being you know, people talking about
- 3:12Speaker 2: trauma and PTSD. I will never forget as a child
- 3:17Speaker 2: being scarred. It was like literally a scary movie in
- 3:20Speaker 2: real life. When those goons Terry O'Reilly and company went
- 3:24Speaker 2: into the garden yep, while they were playing the Rangers
- 3:27Speaker 2: and beat people up with their own shoes. This is
- 3:31Speaker 2: the late seventies, so the shoes were not like cushions.
- 3:33Speaker 1: No, this is hard, but I remind you we got
- 3:36Speaker 1: revenge that night because the great Nikki Fatigua went into
- 3:39Speaker 1: the stands and started beating up Boston people with his shoes.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Yeah, and listen, isn't he like is he's alive?
- 3:48Speaker 1: Right, He's alive. He's alive. He's you know, one of
- 3:52Speaker 1: those guys like Joey Koser. You know, I guess to
- 3:55Speaker 1: a certain extent, guys like Beck and Uber but Hoober.
- 3:58Speaker 1: But ty Domie. Ty Domie was that guy too. They
- 4:00Speaker 1: just went on the ice and they beat up you know,
- 4:03Speaker 1: they scared the hell out of you. Fatilla was the best. Oh,
- 4:07Speaker 1: years and years ago when I was still doing sports
- 4:09Speaker 1: on Fan. Not this show obviously, because I don't do
- 4:11Speaker 1: sports like that, but about everybody. When I did sports, Sure,
- 4:15Speaker 1: I love those guys. I love when the Rangers had
- 4:17Speaker 1: those guys that just beat people up. The sport is
- 4:19Speaker 1: different now, but the sport is different. But I will
- 4:21Speaker 1: tell you that going to an Eagles Giants game many
- 4:24Speaker 1: years ago, we were we were being called all kinds
- 4:27Speaker 1: of horrible words and it was really scary. I was scared.
- 4:31Speaker 1: And the Eagles won that day. Randall Cunningham and the
- 4:34Speaker 1: Eagles they blew out my Giants. They killed us. They
- 4:36Speaker 1: were still angry, these psycho bands. And imagine the shock
- 4:40Speaker 1: when me and my dad got to the parking lot
- 4:42Speaker 1: and our car was turned upside down. True story. Veterans Stadium,
- 4:47Speaker 1: Swear to god, Veterans Stadium, Philadelphia, that's when they had
- 4:51Speaker 1: Remember Whenber they had the jail at the stadium.
- 4:57Speaker 2: Said he's not sports. I'm telling you these are tom
- 5:00Speaker 2: I think they let them out for the game. You
- 5:03Speaker 2: know it's gentrified a little bit now. But I wouldn't.
- 5:05Speaker 2: I wouldn't. I wouldn't show much. I'd say something. I
- 5:07Speaker 2: wouldn't go to a Philadelphia Eagles fan, even without a
- 5:10Speaker 2: Giants jersey on, just because they'd recognize me. I'd be
- 5:13Speaker 2: afraid for my life, even with just as this, with
- 5:16Speaker 2: neutral clothes on. I'd be scared to go to that place.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Ah, it was a very very scary place, there's no
- 5:21Speaker 1: question about it. But NUM maybe not scared that we're
- 5:25Speaker 1: what thing right now in New York City. I love
- 5:27Speaker 1: going to your Instagram account every day and watching you
- 5:30Speaker 1: bash mom Donnie like you do every day. It's great.
- 5:34Speaker 1: You know, yesterday again another great video. Every day this
- 5:37Speaker 1: guy does something, whether it's over taxing the ridge and
- 5:41Speaker 1: trying to get people to leave, or what he did
- 5:43Speaker 1: the King Charles, which I thought was pretty grotesque, or
- 5:47Speaker 1: just every day. I mean, but Michael, are you not
- 5:49Speaker 1: surprised this guy does this every day and it's not
- 5:53Speaker 1: getting a bigger reaction.
- 5:55Speaker 2: See, so this is why I consider you my brother said,
- 5:57Speaker 2: because the word surprise came up last night when when
- 6:02Speaker 2: I when I saw that tweet about from zoron the Moron,
- 6:07Speaker 2: that's what I call him. That's what he'll be called,
- 6:09Speaker 2: zoron the Moron period. Okay, when I saw his tweet
- 6:15Speaker 2: about the another flotilla. This is a week of tweets
- 6:19Speaker 2: and garbage and bulk trapp and I mean, but to
- 6:22Speaker 2: see that last night about a flotilla that got They
- 6:26Speaker 2: told you don't Greta and your flotilla freaks don't come
- 6:30Speaker 2: if we If you come, we're gonna arrest you. And
- 6:32Speaker 2: every single time they come, they get arrested and people
- 6:35Speaker 2: are baffled. See, these are people that didn't grow up
- 6:37Speaker 2: with rules and consequences. You know, their parents never they
- 6:41Speaker 2: never disciplined them, they never dealt with consequences. So they
- 6:44Speaker 2: think when the world in Israel says there's a war
- 6:47Speaker 2: going on, this is not safe, this is international wars.
- 6:50Speaker 2: If you come here, we're gonna arrest you animals, you scumbags.
- 6:55Speaker 2: And then when they get arrested, they complain and they
- 6:57Speaker 2: cry and zor on the moron. Who I mean, you
- 7:00Speaker 2: know that rent is at an all time high right now,
- 7:02Speaker 2: mister free rent. I saw that. But so when when
- 7:06Speaker 2: you're asked me about the word surprise, I just feel
- 7:09Speaker 2: like I'm a glutton for punishment and I'm an optimist
- 7:12Speaker 2: and I haven't I haven't. Maybe I haven't had enough
- 7:15Speaker 2: of the I haven't eaten enough of the dog dodoo.
- 7:18Speaker 2: But I was surprised. I was like, how dare you
- 7:21Speaker 2: mention anything that's going on outside of the Five borlds?
- 7:23Speaker 2: You shouldn't even mention anything that's going on in Albany,
- 7:25Speaker 2: Upstate Jersey, Chicago, Minnesota. You're the mayor of this city.
- 7:31Speaker 2: You're the mayor of the city. What are you talking
- 7:33Speaker 2: about international and your people? What are you gonna do
- 7:36Speaker 2: about it? Or on the morn if they arrested people
- 7:40Speaker 2: for their flotilla and some of them are New Yorkers,
- 7:42Speaker 2: what are you gonna do about a tough guy?
- 7:43Speaker 1: Nothing? Nothing, not right? Right. You shouldn't be talking about
- 7:47Speaker 1: the King. You shouldn't be talking about England, all those things.
- 7:50Speaker 1: I mean, especially, look you're standing. That's sacred soil. I'm sorry,
- 7:56Speaker 1: I knew people who died in those buildings. Come on, man,
- 7:58Speaker 1: you're the mayor of New York. We know you hate America.
- 8:00Speaker 2: We got it.
- 8:01Speaker 1: Forget about Israel and the Jews. We know you hate America. Okay,
- 8:03Speaker 1: we got it. Okay, but at least act. You know,
- 8:06Speaker 1: he stands and he's talking about King Charles and a
- 8:09Speaker 1: piece of jewelry that they gave to the English India
- 8:11Speaker 1: ninety three years ago. And then then he commits the
- 8:14Speaker 1: biggest crime of all, not just him, the wretched governor,
- 8:17Speaker 1: Kathy Hochel, even Julie Menin. They take a smiling selfie yep,
- 8:24Speaker 1: right in front of the Freedom Tower.
- 8:26Speaker 2: Yep. It's you know, he's he's worse than I thought.
- 8:32Speaker 2: His rhetoric is worse than I thought. I think that
- 8:35Speaker 2: whole thing with the King was a was a staged question.
- 8:38Speaker 2: I don't think that that was a you know, like,
- 8:40Speaker 2: I think he was prepared for it. You know what
- 8:42Speaker 2: he's like, he's like a social media guy. He did
- 8:45Speaker 2: it for the Gram, he did it for TikTok. He
- 8:47Speaker 2: set the question up, he had the answer in his pocket.
- 8:51Speaker 2: And you know, it's all for some you and I
- 8:54Speaker 2: could discuss it. He thinks it's great when people are triggered. Yes,
- 8:58Speaker 2: I'm triggered. I live ten blocks away from that stained
- 9:02Speaker 2: Gracie mansion. I'm triggered. I wake up to the I
- 9:05Speaker 2: love this city. I love this city. I am triggered.
- 9:09Speaker 2: I have no shame. You're not gonna shame shame me
- 9:11Speaker 2: about being triggered. You're not gonna shame me about having
- 9:14Speaker 2: emotions about caring about sniffing that dog doodos. I smell it.
- 9:19Speaker 2: I smell it, I walk the street, I smell it,
- 9:21Speaker 2: and then I got a good I got a good sniffer.
- 9:23Speaker 2: And it always leaves me right to right to write
- 9:26Speaker 2: to Carl Fils Park outside of Gracie Mansion every day.
- 9:29Speaker 2: So it's it's it's frustrating and and I'll be totally honested.
- 9:35Speaker 2: You know, I know, you know, we talk about the
- 9:37Speaker 2: mayoral of running in twenty twenty nine in the campaign.
- 9:41Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you this, whoever else is listening that
- 9:43Speaker 2: might be thinking about running for mayor, and you know
- 9:46Speaker 2: that my my consideration is totally real.
- 9:48Speaker 1: Yep.
- 9:49Speaker 2: But if you think anyone is gonna go out there
- 9:52Speaker 2: and out bs him and out finesse him and out
- 9:55Speaker 2: smile him, don't waste your time, don't waste people's votes,
- 9:59Speaker 2: do you own. Only way to get this guy out
- 10:02Speaker 2: is to turn the twenty twenty nine mayoral campaign into
- 10:06Speaker 2: a street fight mentality, not literally, but it has to
- 10:09Speaker 2: be dirty. It's gotta be ugly, it's gotta be messy,
- 10:13Speaker 2: and it's gotta be must watch TV. There is no
- 10:16Speaker 2: other politician that I am aware of that has the
- 10:19Speaker 2: ability to out he might be the greatest bull cropper
- 10:22Speaker 2: in political history, and we're talking about something the best
- 10:26Speaker 2: of all time. So, if if anybody's thinking about running
- 10:30Speaker 2: from mayor, don't think you're gonna do it the cute way.
- 10:33Speaker 2: It's gonna have to be in a completely unorthodox street
- 10:36Speaker 2: fight mentality, crap fling, doodoo fling way. Otherwise we're gonna
- 10:41Speaker 2: have eight years of this this clown.
- 10:43Speaker 1: I know, and right now it seems like that's gonna
- 10:46Speaker 1: be the trend. A lot of people are saying they're
- 10:47Speaker 1: gonna run. They're gonna run. Some okay, some stop. But
- 10:50Speaker 1: if you did run, I'm curious, No.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Sid, no sid who say, let me ask you a
- 10:56Speaker 2: question outside of myself and you what what quote unquote
- 11:00Speaker 2: real politicians are saying they're gonna run.
- 11:02Speaker 1: Uh, while they haven't said it publicly, but I'm telling
- 11:06Speaker 1: you it's a good bet that the police commissioner Jessica
- 11:09Speaker 1: Tish is going to run.
- 11:10Speaker 2: Jessica Tish, I love her. I think she's great. She
- 11:13Speaker 2: won't beat them, okay, I think the respect okay, beat them.
- 11:17Speaker 1: I think the speaker of the city Council, Julie Mennon
- 11:19Speaker 1: is going to run.
- 11:21Speaker 2: Nope, okay, And I say that with respect. You're not
- 11:24Speaker 2: agree with you.
- 11:25Speaker 1: I agree with you. I agree with you. But the
- 11:27Speaker 1: bigger question is, Mike, if you did run, and you
- 11:30Speaker 1: have to make that announcement relatively soon, would you run
- 11:34Speaker 1: as a Republican, which I know you say you're not.
- 11:36Speaker 1: You're not, you're not, but you're closer to that these days.
- 11:38Speaker 1: In the Democrat or an independent.
- 11:41Speaker 2: I would run. I mean, I'm not going to answer
- 11:44Speaker 2: that because I don't want to not put myself in
- 11:47Speaker 2: a box. But I'm not going to do anything that
- 11:49Speaker 2: won't put me in the best position to win.
- 11:52Speaker 1: Okay, that's so.
- 11:53Speaker 2: And if and if it means you know, A, I'll
- 11:56Speaker 2: do A. If it means B, it means B. I
- 11:59Speaker 2: have never been to the Capitol. I've never been to
- 12:03Speaker 2: the White House. I have no allegiance to any politicians.
- 12:06Speaker 2: There is no agenda. I don't want to be governor.
- 12:09Speaker 2: I don't want to be a Senator. I don't want
- 12:10Speaker 2: to be a congressman. I want our city to be respectful.
- 12:14Speaker 2: I want our city. I want the people of our
- 12:16Speaker 2: city to feel proud. I want us to truly be united.
- 12:20Speaker 2: I don't want a divisive mayor in New York City.
- 12:23Speaker 2: I have no agenda. I don't want to be president.
- 12:26Speaker 2: There's no nothing I want our city now.
- 12:30Speaker 1: I know, listen, I think you love this city as
- 12:32Speaker 1: much as anybody I know here. You want.
- 12:34Speaker 2: I can't stand Bullgrass, I.
- 12:36Speaker 1: Know that, so so I think you probably should want.
- 12:39Speaker 1: My question to you, though, is can you still act
- 12:43Speaker 1: being all these great movies you win. Can you still
- 12:45Speaker 1: do stand up comedy once you start running from mayor?
- 12:48Speaker 2: Well, when the campaign gets serious, you know, i'd have
- 12:51Speaker 2: to like two years out. No, I'd have to focus
- 12:55Speaker 2: on it, and I would focus on it one hundred
- 12:56Speaker 2: and fifty percent. I'm not going to play games. I'm
- 12:59Speaker 2: not gonna wait a second.
- 13:00Speaker 1: You're telling me you're willing to give up a night
- 13:04Speaker 1: in the clubhouse with Andy Cohen on the Bravo Channel
- 13:07Speaker 1: to try to fix this city. Really, why why.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Can't I go Why can't I go on? Why can't
- 13:12Speaker 2: I talk about the real house Whenes of Rhode Island?
- 13:14Speaker 2: Why can't I talk about the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
- 13:18Speaker 2: I don't have to go on there and just spew
- 13:20Speaker 2: my political campaign. No, I know he should be so,
- 13:22Speaker 2: he should be so lucky to have Uh, you know,
- 13:25Speaker 2: the next mayor of New York City come on there
- 13:27Speaker 2: and wat's poetic about as reality talking.
- 13:29Speaker 1: About the reunion last night with Kyle and Uh and Erica. No, listen,
- 13:33Speaker 1: I think you should honestly think about it, because to
- 13:36Speaker 1: your point, it needs to be a brawl in the street,
- 13:39Speaker 1: which I'm wanting to do too. But it needs to
- 13:41Speaker 1: needs to be somebody who doesn't love the position, who
- 13:45Speaker 1: doesn't love the job, but someone who loves the city.
- 13:50Speaker 2: The city and the people that you mentioned, Like I said,
- 13:53Speaker 2: they're both great, they're both respectful. They're not going to win.
- 13:57Speaker 2: I'm talking about if you're going to win, it needs
- 14:00Speaker 2: to be a kin to Trump and twenty fifteen. But
- 14:04Speaker 2: even on steroids, it needs to be something like out
- 14:08Speaker 2: of a movie. And I'm not saying turn it into
- 14:11Speaker 2: a freak show and turning into disrespect, but someone needs
- 14:15Speaker 2: to go at him. I would attack him the way
- 14:18Speaker 2: he attacks New Yorkers in the subway, but I would
- 14:22Speaker 2: make a straight line. Where's your wife? Where's rama? She
- 14:26Speaker 2: was all at the fashion shows, she was all doing
- 14:29Speaker 2: the photo shoots. And then we found out what kind
- 14:31Speaker 2: of evil social media person she is. We found out
- 14:36Speaker 2: it was confirmed. We knew. We knew because those dark, beaty,
- 14:39Speaker 2: dark eyes. We had a feeling she was evil. And
- 14:41Speaker 2: then we saw that on October seventh she was tweeting
- 14:45Speaker 2: and tweeting and liking and liking and also Zora on
- 14:48Speaker 2: the morning, what were you doing on October seventh while
- 14:51Speaker 2: were you in the corner, you know, oiling yourself up.
- 14:54Speaker 2: What were you doing while your wife was liking all
- 14:57Speaker 2: these tweets? Sir Mayor? Answer that question, He's go. You
- 15:00Speaker 2: know you're gonna answer the questions. What's gonna happen?
- 15:03Speaker 1: You never had so he's been asked out a couple
- 15:05Speaker 1: of times, and all he says is I love my wife.
- 15:06Speaker 1: That's great. I'm glad you love your wife. Good to you.
- 15:08Speaker 2: I mean, why are you smiling, sir? Mister Mayor? Why
- 15:12Speaker 2: are you smiling? If these are so bad? Rent is
- 15:14Speaker 2: at an all time high, affordabilities at all time high.
- 15:18Speaker 2: What's with the smile?
- 15:20Speaker 1: See, you're in a tough spot because you spent a
- 15:22Speaker 1: lot of years in Hollywood. Because again, you're a big
- 15:24Speaker 1: time actor. I love all your movies, and dude, man,
- 15:27Speaker 1: you're a really good actor. You do so you would
- 15:31Speaker 1: be in Hollywood quite a bit. You really came back
- 15:33Speaker 1: to New York, I guess after COVID to be a
- 15:36Speaker 1: full time New Yorker again. But it's not even like
- 15:39Speaker 1: you know what, this Mayor is so bad, I'm gonna
- 15:42Speaker 1: stop spending my time on the Upper East Side. I'm
- 15:44Speaker 1: going back to Hollywood because that that city, Los Angeles
- 15:48Speaker 1: is just as bad, maybe worse completely.
- 15:52Speaker 2: But I will tell you I you know, I never
- 15:54Speaker 2: met Spencer Pratt, but what's going on, like company's making
- 15:58Speaker 2: a splash.
- 15:58Speaker 1: I like him.
- 15:59Speaker 2: This is no disrespect to Spencer Spencer Prank. He's no
- 16:03Speaker 2: Michael Rappaport.
- 16:04Speaker 1: No, no, no, he's not.
- 16:06Speaker 2: So so in terms of I'm not saying in terms of,
- 16:09Speaker 2: you know, like what he's accomplished. I'm saying in terms
- 16:11Speaker 2: of like the grit and the fight that you know,
- 16:13Speaker 2: he's doing a good job. He's he's rallied some people,
- 16:16Speaker 2: and I think, you know, he's got a chance to
- 16:18Speaker 2: to to make some impact. I don't think he's gonna win, unfortunately.

- 17:30Speaker 2: the New York City is, and you know New York
