  Speaker 1: It's more of Mark, the Mark Simone Show, on WOR.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Well, welcome to hour number two. That's right, hour number two.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: You missed the first hour. It's nine to noon every day.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Nine to noon every day here on 710WOR. Lots to
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: get to today. Hey, I forgot to mention, today... At
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: 1.30 is the big Apple presentation. They're going to unveil
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: the new iPhone, the iPhone 18, the 18 Pro, 18
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Pro Max, and the, we don't know, rumor is it's
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: going to be called the iPhone Ultra. It'll be the
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: first foldable iPhone. It'll open up. In other words, it's
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: the size of your iPhone, but you unfold it, and
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: then the two Sides become one big screen. So at
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: 1.30 today, they'll unveil that. They're going to actually 1 o'clock,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: 1 o'clock today, 10 a.m. Pacific, 1 o'clock. Tim Cook
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: will not be there. They got this new chairman of
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: the board. He'll make the whole presentation. Tim Cook will
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: make no appearance in this. So they're letting this guy shine.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Or also Tim Cook says, let this guy take the
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: blame if it doesn't go well. The new iPhone 18
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Pro models. They'll be a little more expensive. They'll be
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: a little more expensive than you might think. Price increases.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: The parts that they use, the prices, cost has gone up.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: What are you going to get in the new iPhone? Well,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: you'll get the biggest iPhone battery to date. Battery life
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: will go up to 39 hours. 39 hours. So you
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: should see a big difference in the battery life. You
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: know that little black little oval at the top of
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: your phone where they put the camera and everything in there?
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: They call that the dynamic island. It'll get much smaller,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: so you get more screen. Quality of the display will
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: be upgraded. The camera will be vastly improved. It's already
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: a phenomenal camera. You know, they test the iPhone 17
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: camera against Nikon cameras, against Canons, and it holds its own.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: So it'll be phenomenal, the new camera. The big featured
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: color will be a dark cherry iPhone. But that's coming
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: out today. Now, the foldable one is going to get
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: all the attention. They're already foldable Androids where you unfold
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: it and it becomes a big screen like the size
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: of a tablet. The problem is if you turn it
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: this way or that way, you can see a little.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: You can see the seam a little. Apple was not
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: going to make a foldable until they could get rid
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: of that seam completely. Supposedly, they've done it. That's the
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: word that today we're going to see, the foldable iPhone. Now,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: let me just give you a little warning. It's a
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: great gimmick. It unfolds. You get a big screen. But
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: real experts on all this are saying stick with the
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: regular iPhone. The problem is the one that unfolds, they
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: have to split the battery into two parts, one on
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: each side. And the battery life will not be as long.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: The battery will not be as stable split into both sides.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: A lot of stuff they had to split into both sides.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: And each side is very thin so that when it's
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: folded together, it's not too thick. Each side is very thin.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: So everything is less in it. Less power, less speed,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: less everything in the foldable one. The iPhone 18 Pro
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Max is expected to be absolutely awesome, unbelievable, most dazzling
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: phone ever made. So you might want to stick with
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: their regular phone. So one o'clock today, they'll make that presentation.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: There's going to be a new iWatch, Apple Watch. There's
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: going to be new earbuds and all of that stuff.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: So that'll happen later today. Iran attacked early this morning,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: attacked a base in Jordan, a U.S. base. We struck back.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: We blew up and destroyed 10 Iranian tankers. Remember we
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: told you that every time they hit us, we'd take
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: out three, and that number was going to go to 10? Well,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: this morning they took out 10 Iranian oil tankers. Now,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: every time you take out a tanker, it just crushes
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Iran economically, because even if they had oil, they can't
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: move it without the tankers. So we've taken out almost
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: 25 of their tankers now, That's a lot less oil
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: than they can ever move. The commander of CENTCOM, Admiral Cooper,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: has what they call preemptive authority, which means he doesn't
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: have to get authority from anybody. He can act immediately.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: If Iran fires at us, hits anything of ours, he
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: can take out whatever he wants. And CENTCOM announced. Now,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Iran is putting out a statement that they hit two U.S.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Navy destroyers, CENTCOM releasing this, that that's absolutely false. Nothing
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: has been struck. No Navy warship has been hit by Iran,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: that it's absolutely false. So that's good news. The Iran war,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: it's going to be an issue. It's not a big
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: issue with voters right now. Price of gas will be
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: an issue, and that is spiking a little, because as
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: we told you last hour, word is the administration has
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: been exaggerating how much oil They got flowing through the
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Strait of Hormuz. They were claiming 9 million barrels every day,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: up to 15 million gallons. Well, actually, it looks like
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: that number is greatly— it' s believed that they're exaggerating that number.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: And it's not that big, so that's caused that little spike.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: This guy works for Anthropic, the big AI company. He's
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: a researcher, and he quit. And this is going viral
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: right now. The guy quit and he put out this
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: warning that AI is going to kill us all. And
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: people on his team agree that AI is going to
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: kill us all. I don't know. Everybody's panicking. It's going
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: super viral. He says, do not underestimate the power of
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: this technology. There will soon be superhuman systems that can
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: hack anything, revolutionize any field overnight, acquire real power and resources.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know. AI going to kill us all? You know,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: back when the Internet was taken over in 2000, 99, 2000,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: you got a lot of these warnings it was going
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: to destroy anything and everything. You get this all the time.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: As Steve Forbes pointed out to us, this is fascinating.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: When electricity was invented hundreds of years ago, when electricity
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: was invented, everybody went into panic thinking this electricity, this
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: new thing called electricity, would kill us all. that it
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: would create monsters. And the panic was so widespread, that's
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: why this woman wrote a book, a novel, and called
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: it Frankenstein. It was about electricity creating a monster that
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: would kill us all. So this kind of panic has
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: been around anytime anything is invented. Hey, that guy running
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: in Michigan, that Al Sayad, there's more and more video
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: of him coming out. There's one now from five years ago.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: It was the anniversary of 9-11. This is back in 2021,
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: five years ago. They found this video of El-Sayed saying
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: that we were wrong in 9-11, that when we were attacked,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: we went crazy, we wasted trillions of dollars, we waged
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: a war that we would always lose. We created an
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: era of death, destruction, and destitution. He blamed the U.S.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: when it comes to 9-11 for creating this death, destruction,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: and destitution. That's coming out. There'll be more coming out
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: on El Sayyad, videos, past comments, past statements, as he
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: tries running in Michigan against Mike Rogers. So it'll probably,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: they call that an October surprise in October, they'll release
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: all kinds of crap on this guy. You know, the
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Smithsonian Institute, Washington, D.C. 's great museum, the great American museum,
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: the Smithsonian Institute, So prestigious. I don't know if you've
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: been there or followed it for the last 10 years.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Started in the Obama era, but ever since it's gone
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: totally woke. It's a woke museum that presents a very
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: negative view of America through its history. All the negative
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: stuff about America is in there. Getting rid of all
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: the positive stuff. It just went woke. I mean, these
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: crazy left-wingers took it over. Led by the head of
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: the Smithsonian Institute, Lonnie Bunch, he was put in there,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: I think, by Obama. He's been removed. Finally, the Trump
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: administration has got this guy removed. He's been clashing with them.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: They've been fighting with him to get the museum back
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: to normal, not this woke anti-American museum. So he's out.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: He's gone. That's good news. He resigned yesterday. Thank goodness.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: The Lindsay Clancy case. Now, there was one juror. That
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: held out. He was the one guy. She would have
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: had a total acquittal. And been done with this. But
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: this one juror. He said he had reasonable doubt. Jurors
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: are starting to do television interviews.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: He admitted he had reasonable doubt, and I started filling
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: out the forms. I was so excited. There were three
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: forms I had to fill out, and I started filling
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: them out. I wrote my signature on each one, and
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: then he said, but I'm still not going to say
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: that she's not guilty by reason of insanity. Now, you've
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: got to remember, this is New Hampshire, Massachusetts. That's how
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: they talk. She started filling out the forms. She started
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: to fill out the forms, but.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: But this juror, just reasonable doubt, they kept trying to
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: explain things to him.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: We read to him on numerous occasions the definition of
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: a reasonable doubt from Judge Sullivan's instruction. He actually said
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: one day in the end, well, why don't we have
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: the judge come in and read it again? And we
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: were like, no, we have it in front of us.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: We don't need that. And we would highlight it. And,
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: you know, so-and-so, this is the definition of reasonable. But
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: he had the hardest time getting off the fact that
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: Lindsay viciously killed her children.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Now, that's what an angry New Englander sounds like. They
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: don't yell. If this was Long Island, you'd hear screaming
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: and yelling. But she started filling out the forms. They
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: just don't get too mad. They're very polite people. So
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: this lawyer, they got just the right lawyer for this case.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: He looks very old and he's got the glasses on.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: He looks like a professor. He looks like a kind
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: old guy. What's his name? Reddington?
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: I hope, however, after sitting through this trial and seeing
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the evidence that was presented from the government as well
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: as from the defense, that he would revisit that issue
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: and hopefully would be able to work something out that
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: would be acceptable to both sides.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: You know, the thing is with this Lindsay Clancy, I
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: guess there's two sides to this case. But she did kill,
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: murder her children. Could you imagine such a thing? Now, she's,
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: you know, arguing there was trauma, you know, what she
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: called psychotrauma with a psychotic break. But she killed her
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: three kids. One is five years old. The daughter's five.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: One is three. The baby was eight months. And she
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: very methodically killed them. So I can understand a lot
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: of people not having sympathy for this woman, no matter
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: what psychological problems she had, no matter what trauma, no
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: matter what voices. She kept saying she heard voices in
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: her head. No matter what voices. We've had a lot
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: of lunatic nutjobs. We just saw one here in New
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: York the other day who picked up two knives and
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: went stabbing people. But Killing your own children, murdering, carefully
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: murdering your three children. A lot of people are not
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: going to have any sympathy for you. I can understand that.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Pete Hegseth is one of them. He was speaking out.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: So apparently, on The View, Whoopi Goldberg is a big
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: defender of Lindsay Clancy. And Whoopi Goldberg said, you Clancy haters,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: you haters, you sound like Pete Hegseth. Now, what the
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: hell does that mean? How do you tie all this
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: into Pete Hegseth that... She said, he's arguing that a
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: woman should not serve in combat. Well, that's a whole
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: different thing. He could logically make the case that maybe
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: women in the Army shouldn't be in actual combat. You know,
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: if you're an old-fashioned guy, I could see where you'd
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: think that. So to compare that to Lindsay Clancy, a
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: little ridiculous. Hey, speaking of ridiculous, you know, Billy Baldwin,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: every one of these Baldwin brothers, they all got a
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: screw loose. They're not as bad as Alec. This Alec
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: is a complete ranging maniac, Alec Baldwin. But Billy Baldwin's
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: on this podcast, and he's telling these stories about movies.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: You know, he was in a movie with Sharon Stone. Anyway,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: he said she was a nightmare. She was an absolute
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: nightmare to work with. There was unbelievable tension on the set.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: He said, we got along pretty well first couple of weeks.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Then she wouldn't say hello or goodbye for the next
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: three months. So what? Who cares? Wouldn't say goodbye. I
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: got the point. They're starring in the movie together. And
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: at the end, there's a big love scene where they
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: have to do it. So apparently he scheduled a meeting
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: with the producers. And he explained to them he can't
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: film the last scene. He can't do the love scene
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: with her. He said, I can't do the scene. Just please.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Please don't make me kiss her. I can't kiss her. Now,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: they must have thought, this guy has got to be
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: the biggest lunatic in the world. You hate her guts.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: It's Sharon Stone. You can't kiss Sharon Stone. Just please,
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: I can't. You know, there's people digging ditches for a
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: living 12 hours a day. You see those window washers
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: hanging off the side of a building 50 stories up?
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: That's a tough job. Can you imagine telling somebody, you
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: don't know what I went through at work. They wanted
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: me to kiss Sharon Stone. You're getting like 18 million
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: for this movie. I'd kiss Madeleine Albright for 18 million bucks.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Who couldn't do this scene? Baldwin said that's why if
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: you watch the scene at the end, he kind of
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: pushes her up against the post there and looks at her,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: but they don't really kiss. What a lunatic this guy is. Hey,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: 800-321-0710.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Zero, seven, ten.
