  Speaker 1: Sid and Friends in the Morning. Entertaining and informative. On
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Congratulations especially to Sid Rosenberg on his induction to the
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: New York State Broadcasters Hall of Fame. I can't believe
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: he didn't make it years ago. Today, Sid forever joins
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: a roll call of some of the greatest legends in
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: the history of New York broadcasting and talk radio. the
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: best in the business, and he's the best in the business.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Over many years, Sid has distinguished himself as one of
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: the most authentic and recognizable voices in American airwaves. And
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: he's built a smart, loyal, gigantic audience. And I happen
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: to be one of those people in the audience. And
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: I had for a long time, long before I became president.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: It was supposed to be a solemn candlelight vigil to
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: honor the victims of the October 7 terror attack by
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: Hamas in Israel. Instead, it was tense and combative, and
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: that was even before Mayor Mamdani showed up.
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: Several New York City landmarks lit up in yellow to
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: honor the nearly 1,200 people killed. three years ago, and
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: another 251 taken hostage in Gaza. But at Union Square,
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: candlelight turned into confrontation.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Eyewitness News reporter Safan Kim with details on how it
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: all devolved.
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: Safan?
• 1:20
  Speaker 6: Well, Sade and Mike, we knew when Mayor Mamdani issued
• 1:23
  Speaker 6: his October 7th statement, it would create a political firestorm
• 1:26
  Speaker 6: among pockets of the Jewish community. But when he stepped
• 1:29
  Speaker 6: into Union Square for this vigil, he made enemies, with
• 1:32
  Speaker 6: some on the other side as well. There was tension
• 1:41
  Speaker 6: and there was confrontation. Not in attendance tonight, civility and dialogue,
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: a show of solidarity and resilience to honor the more
• 1:56
  Speaker 6: than 1,200 Israeli civilians who were massacred three years ago
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: and to remember their pain. drowned out by hostility. Mayor
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: Mamdani even met with chants of traitor and sellout and
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: showered with relentless, unforgiving jeers. The progressive wing of the
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: Democratic Party, the mayor, public advocate Jumaane Williams, and former
• 2:28
  Speaker 6: city comptroller Brad Lander, excoriated by their own political base
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: for their attempts at unity. Messages from the dais of
• 2:35
  Speaker 6: sympathy for the 74,000 Palestinian lives lost in Gaza, silenced
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: by the opposition.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Projected to an unprecedented war of genocide and starvation.
• 2:46
  Speaker 7: If the Israeli army enters Rafah, we may all die.
• 2:50
  Speaker 7: Time is running out. The bombing continues.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: And no one has moved to save us yet.
• 2:59
  Speaker 7: Thank you all for organizing this protest for innocent people
• 3:02
  Speaker 7: on both sides every week.
• 3:04
  Speaker 8: I'm trying to make sure I always lift up the
• 3:06
  Speaker 8: pain of everybody.
• 3:07
  Speaker 9: I think too often people are trying to force people
• 3:11
  Speaker 9: to choose.
• 3:11
  Speaker 7: I'm not choosing. There's a lot of pain.
• 3:13
  Speaker 10: There's a lot of death.
• 3:14
  Speaker 7: There's a lot of innocent people who are... We've lost
• 3:17
  Speaker 7: our lives.
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: Newscopter 7 capturing pro-Palestinian demonstrators earlier in the day, marching
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: from City Hall where flags flew at half-staff, and students
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: at Columbia University staging a walkout. The mayor, meanwhile, not
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: making friends as he started the day either, issuing a
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: statement describing the day as profoundly painful. His statement going
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: on to say, in part, we grieve alongside our many
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss, the
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: suffering that did not begin nor end that day. Their
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: mayor went on at length describing the Israeli response in
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: Gaza as an ongoing genocide, condemning U.S. military support for Israel, adding,
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: and apartheid continue. The New York Board of Rabbis call
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: on the mayor's statement insensitive at best.
• 4:03
  Speaker 8: This is a day of mourning for us.
• 4:05
  Speaker 7: Just give us that day.
• 4:06
  Speaker 11: We can have all the other discussions, debates on different days,
• 4:10
  Speaker 11: but don't do it today.
• 4:11
  Speaker 7: Every time I think this mayor, this piece of garbage,
• 4:13
  Speaker 7: this jihad, anti-Semite terrorists. Can't get any lower, okay? You
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: managed to do it today. Today happens to be the
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: three-year commemoration of October the 7th. I did my whole
• 4:23
  Speaker 7: show on that. Brutal day for Israelis and Jews around
• 4:27
  Speaker 7: the world. And you would think that just for today,
• 4:29
  Speaker 7: just for today, this lying mayor who talks about genocide,
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: which isn't happening, he calls Bibi a war criminal. He's
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: not a war criminal. He wants to arrest Bibi Netanyahu,
• 4:39
  Speaker 7: even though he can't do it. Just for today.
• 4:42
  Speaker 12: Where Israelis were murdered, not Palestinians, Israelis, he would take
• 4:46
  Speaker 12: one day to sympathize with Israel.
• 4:48
  Speaker 13: He puts out a statement, two sentences, two sentences talk
• 4:53
  Speaker 13: about the innocent Israelis raped and murdered that day. 80%,
• 4:57
  Speaker 13: 80% of his statement today, this disgusting mayor, talks about
• 5:02
  Speaker 13: the Palestinians.
• 5:03
  Speaker 7: Does he realize the Palestinians were complicit?
• 5:05
  Speaker 12: That they were going into those Jewish neighborhoods, going back
• 5:08
  Speaker 12: into Gaza and giving Hamas information, where the Jews were,
• 5:12
  Speaker 12: who had guns.
• 5:13
  Speaker 7: They even showed up that morning. They abducted the Bibas family.
• 5:16
  Speaker 7: They're not innocent, okay?
• 5:19
  Speaker 12: But even if you think they are, just today, find
• 5:22
  Speaker 12: a way to sympathize with the Jews.
• 5:23
  Speaker 7: And this piece of garbage mayor couldn't even do that.
• 5:26
  Speaker 7: Listen to me, Mamdani, I hate your guts. Marco Rubio.
• 5:32
  Speaker 14: Today, We find ourselves at a crossroads because the next
• 5:37
  Speaker 14: decade and the decisions we make will write the story
• 5:41
  Speaker 14: of the next century. The course we take will determine
• 5:45
  Speaker 14: whether the West maintains its place at the head of
• 5:48
  Speaker 14: the world or resigns itself to a future of atrophy
• 5:52
  Speaker 14: and servitude and decline.
• 5:56
  Speaker 10: We will either choose to act now.
• 5:59
  Speaker 7: Or lose the choice to act at all.
• 6:03
  Speaker 14: Now it's become fashionable today to believe that enlightened foreign
• 6:07
  Speaker 14: policy means prioritizing the global community over one's own people.
• 6:12
  Speaker 14: And I think here too we have much to learn
• 6:14
  Speaker 14: from the men of ancient Greece. Because they knew that
• 6:18
  Speaker 14: there was nothing selfish or wrong about loyalty to your nation.
• 6:23
  Speaker 14: Nor anything selfish or wrong about fighting to defend its
• 6:26
  Speaker 14: interests above all else.
• 6:27
  Speaker 9: I'm very happy that this strategic dialogue was able to
• 6:30
  Speaker 9: touch upon all these issues and again welcome to Athens
• 6:37
  Speaker 9: and congratulations on a speech that I think will resonate
• 6:43
  Speaker 9: way beyond the place it was delivered.
• 6:45
  Speaker 15: A lot of insecure pillars of insecurity surrounding you in
• 6:48
  Speaker 15: this region but to have you here is such a
• 6:50
  Speaker 15: strong partner of ours and to continue to build on
• 6:52
  Speaker 15: that relationship in a way that's mutually beneficial. I think
• 6:55
  Speaker 15: there are things we can do on economics, on energy,
• 6:58
  Speaker 15: on trade, which are helpful to both the people of
• 7:01
  Speaker 15: Greece and people to the United States.
• 7:02
  Speaker 16: And we're always looking for those opportunities.
• 7:05
  Speaker 7: This is a Democrat party. They want to raise your taxes.
• 7:08
  Speaker 7: They want to deep on the police. They want to
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: open the borders. They want to destroy New York City.
• 7:13
  Speaker 17: Conservative radio host Sid Rosenberg believes he's got the candidate
• 7:16
  Speaker 17: for Democrats who feel the same way these days.
• 7:19
  Speaker 7: You're running as a Republican, but you just want to
• 7:22
  Speaker 7: present the common sense issues.
• 7:24
  Speaker 17: Caroline Schinkel, the Republican for New York's 12th Congressional District.
• 7:27
  Speaker 17: one of the most liberal districts in the country in
• 7:29
  Speaker 17: the heart of Manhattan.
• 7:31
  Speaker 18: This is our city, and we're taking it back this November.
• 7:36
  Speaker 17: Schenkel is a 33-year-old corporate lawyer from Midtown by way
• 7:40
  Speaker 17: of the Midwest.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: I want to.
• 7:41
  Speaker 18: Resurrect the power of private enterprise here in New York City.
• 7:44
  Speaker 17: The Democrat in the race, Upper West Side Assemblyman Michael Asher.
• 7:47
  Speaker 17: Schenkel is making his early support of Mayor Mamdani a
• 7:50
  Speaker 17: campaign issue in a district with a large Jewish population.
• 7:53
  Speaker 18: They feel betrayed by the Democratic Party. They are giving
• 7:56
  Speaker 18: my candidacy a serious look.
• 7:57
  Speaker 17: Schinkel thought little of Lasher's long career in government.
• 8:00
  Speaker 18: This is a guy, Michael Lasher, who's a career political bureaucrat.
• 8:04
  Speaker 18: He's a career political hack who really only stands for
• 8:07
  Speaker 18: himself and his political career.
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: He's a weak guy.
• 8:10
  Speaker 17: Lasher's campaign declined to comment. Beyond law, Schinkel also worked
• 8:14
  Speaker 17: for central banks in the U.S., Europe, and Israel.
• 8:17
  Speaker 7: Her big idea?
• 8:18
  Speaker 18: If you make $ 150, 000 or less, I want those Americans
• 8:23
  Speaker 18: to keep all of that money, to put all of
• 8:24
  Speaker 18: that money in their pockets. We will fund that elimination
• 8:27
  Speaker 18: of the federal income tax from those W-2 wages by
• 8:30
  Speaker 18: rooting out the fraud that exists just with respect to
• 8:34
  Speaker 18: fraudulent health care claims alone.
• 8:37
  Speaker 17: On President Trump, Schenkel says she likes his handling of
• 8:39
  Speaker 17: the economy.
• 8:40
  Speaker 18: The president has been trying to get countries to come
• 8:43
  Speaker 18: back to the negotiating table to ensure that we have
• 8:46
  Speaker 18: fair deals.
• 8:47
  Speaker 17: But not everything about him.
• 8:48
  Speaker 18: The president can be divisive, certainly.
• 8:51
  Speaker 17: Among her supporters, Chris Diep, who finished last in the
• 8:54
  Speaker 17: Democratic primary. They both oppose a data center moratorium. She
• 8:58
  Speaker 17: cares about, you know, making sure a whole country... The
• 9:02
  Speaker 17: economy's good. Schinkel is banking on such dissatisfied Democrats.
• 9:06
  Speaker 18: And by the way, what happens in the voting booth
• 9:08
  Speaker 18: stays in the voting booth.
• 9:09
  Speaker 17: While a Republican winning is improbable, Schinkel's name on the
• 9:12
  Speaker 17: ballot at least makes it possible.
• 9:14
  Speaker 7: That piece they ran, there's a guy, one of the
• 9:17
  Speaker 7: reporters who works at New York One who I really like.
• 9:21
  Speaker 7: And he did that piece. His name is Dan Rivoli.
• 9:25
  Speaker 7: Dan is probably the only reporter, anchor, anybody at New
• 9:29
  Speaker 7: York One... that contacts me relatively consistently when he wants
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: to do a story on conservative politics in New York,
• 9:39
  Speaker 7: because for the most part, Spectrum New York One is
• 9:44
  Speaker 7: a terrible, communist, racist, anti-Jew station, led by the biggest
• 9:53
  Speaker 7: dick of them all, Errol Lewis. Just so happens my
• 9:57
  Speaker 7: friend Saritha, who I like a lot, is going to
• 10:00
  Speaker 7: debate the Attorney General Letitia James later on tonight. That's
• 10:05
  Speaker 7: a 7 p.m. start. And Errol Lewis will be moderating
• 10:10
  Speaker 7: that debate like he did last week when he moderated
• 10:13
  Speaker 7: the debate between my friend Joe Hernandez and running for
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: comptroller against Thomas DiNapoli, just like Lewis will do on
• 10:21
  Speaker 7: Tuesday night, the 13th, coming up in a couple of days,
• 10:25
  Speaker 7: when Bruce Blakeman debates Kathy Hochul, governor, on that network station,
• 10:31
  Speaker 7: whatever you want to call it. So Rivoli showed up
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: last week. I told you guys that most Republicans who
• 10:38
  Speaker 7: run in this city reach out to me, because even
• 10:42
  Speaker 7: though I'm not a politician, and if this sounds... Arrogant,
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: I'm sorry, it's just the truth. Even though I'm not
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: a politician, I've got more influence and sway than just
• 10:55
  Speaker 7: about anybody in this city, certainly in the media world.
• 10:59
  Speaker 7: Is that a fair statement, Norm, or am I?
• 11:00
  Speaker 10: I would think that's fair, yeah.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: Fair.
• 11:02
  Speaker 7: They all reach out to me. They want to come
• 11:04
  Speaker 7: on the show. They want, Sid, could you please host
• 11:06
  Speaker 7: something for me? So I did it for Hernandez about
• 11:09
  Speaker 7: a month and a half ago at Dorian's on the
• 11:12
  Speaker 7: Upper East Side. And then I met Caroline Schenkel and
• 11:15
  Speaker 7: her mother, Carolyn, in Bedminster, New Jersey, the same night
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: President Trump made a big deal about me. He was
• 11:23
  Speaker 7: there to actually endorse, what's his name again, the MyPillow guy?
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: He lost.
• 11:29
  Speaker 10: Michael Lindell.
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: Right. And Caroline and Carolyn were there that night, and
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: they asked about me doing something for them. I said,
• 11:36
  Speaker 7: I'll do it, I promise, you know, and I delivered
• 11:39
  Speaker 7: last Wednesday. We had this event at Dorian, same place.
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: And Dan Wively showed up. And he did a whole
• 11:47
  Speaker 7: bunch of interviews and didn't use a lot of it yet.
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: But that was a nice piece he ran last night.
• 11:54
  Speaker 7: And he interviewed Caroline Schenkel quite a bit. And she
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: is clearly the much better candidate between her and the
• 12:01
  Speaker 7: Democrat Michael Lasher. Again, Very difficult for a Republican to
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: win any race in New York, any race, especially that district,
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: District 12, a bunch of real lunatic Democrats. But even
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: though Caroline is running as a Republican, she's very common sense.
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: And economically, she's as sound as any candidate running anywhere
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: in the country today. Banking experience in the United States,
• 12:31
  Speaker 7: in Europe and Israel. That's pretty impressive, wouldn't you say, Noam?
• 12:35
  Speaker 7: That it is. So, you know, there's a couple people
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: there that I like. I like Shannon Ferry, cute kid.
• 12:40
  Speaker 7: Do you guys know who Shannon Ferry's roommate was at Hofstra?
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: Hmm.
• 12:47
  Speaker 7: Any idea, Lewis?
• 12:48
  Speaker 8: Jeffrey Dahmer.
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: Very good guess.
• 12:51
  Speaker 10: Jeffrey Epstein.
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: No.
• 12:53
  Speaker 8: Jeffrey, Mayor, Jeffrey Mayor.
• 12:57
  Speaker 10: Jeffrey Osborne.
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: No.
• 12:59
  Speaker 7: Jennifer Grodd. Remember Jenny Grodd?
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 13:02
  Speaker 8: Now I remember.
• 13:03
  Speaker 7: She's at News Nation now, and she was our producer
• 13:06
  Speaker 7: here for many, many years. She roomed with Shannon Ferry
• 13:08
  Speaker 7: at Hofstra. I like her a lot, and I like
• 13:11
  Speaker 7: Roger Clark a lot, even though they make Roger look
• 13:14
  Speaker 7: like an ass a bunch of times there. Otherwise, the
• 13:16
  Speaker 7: rest of the station, I don't mind the little leprechaun
• 13:19
  Speaker 7: in the morning. What's his name?
• 13:20
  Speaker 10: Pat Kiernan.
• 13:22
  Speaker 7: What is it?
• 13:22
  Speaker 10: Pat Kiernan.
• 13:23
  Speaker 7: He's not a bad guy. Otherwise, the rest of it
• 13:25
  Speaker 7: is just complete garbage. But Rivoli's good, and that's a
• 13:29
  Speaker 7: good piece, and I was happy that they played that
• 13:32
  Speaker 7: last night, and I'm rooting hard for Caroline Schinkel. Now,
• 13:35
  Speaker 7: Dorian's is not an Italian restaurant, but the reason why
• 13:39
  Speaker 7: I did play that song there is because I missed
• 13:42
  Speaker 7: that piece, and I missed part of the Yankee season
• 13:46
  Speaker 7: coming to an end because I was at an Italian
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: restaurant last night. Happens to be one of my all-time favorites.
• 13:52
  Speaker 7: I believe it's far and away the best Italian restaurant
• 13:56
  Speaker 7: in Little Italy. My buddy Tommy Leonard in South Place,
• 13:59
  Speaker 7: Il Cortillo. Love that place, though. And we got together
• 14:04
  Speaker 7: last night, a bunch of my old best friends, Poly
• 14:09
  Speaker 7: Prep High School, 46 years later.
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 14:14
  Speaker 7: Danny Fogliano, Greg Scaglione, John Behrens, John Camerianos, and then
• 14:22
  Speaker 7: who showed up about 7.30? Joseph Takapina. And all of
• 14:26
  Speaker 7: us were great buddies, especially me, Tack, Danny, and Greg,
• 14:32
  Speaker 7: and a guy named Gary Hanna, whose father, Al, actually
• 14:35
  Speaker 7: owned Pastels. Gary's an attorney today. He's friends with Arthur Aydala,
• 14:40
  Speaker 7: but he's a lunatic liberal, so I don't hang out
• 14:42
  Speaker 7: with Gary, you know. But this was so much fun
• 14:45
  Speaker 7: last night, just reminiscing about all the old times. Getting
• 14:50
  Speaker 7: back again nearly five decades ago, Adil Korteel, Literally, Noam
• 14:54
  Speaker 7: Layton and Lou Rapinoe scenes from an Italian restaurant. Literally.
• 14:59
  Speaker 7: It was so great. You have friends like that, Noam?
• 15:02
  Speaker 7: Long time? Yeah, I do.
• 15:06
  Speaker 10: Well, you're right.
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: I don't have any friends at all.
• 15:09
  Speaker 10: No, in fact, I just go home and sit in
• 15:11
  Speaker 10: a dark room by myself.
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: I think I'm your only friend, basically. I don't know.
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: 46 years of memories. How about that, guys?
• 15:17
  Speaker 10: That's unbelievable. So what did you talk about?
• 15:20
  Speaker 7: Oh, just some of our teachers... Mrs. Marcello, she's long dead.
• 15:25
  Speaker 7: She put iodine on my fingernails so I'd stop biting
• 15:28
  Speaker 7: my nails. It didn't work.
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: It didn't?
• 15:30
  Speaker 10: You still bite them now?
• 15:30
  Speaker 7: Still bite them now. They're gross. Helen Carmody, who failed
• 15:33
  Speaker 7: me in earth science. Her son is good friends with
• 15:36
  Speaker 7: Arthur Aydala these days.
• 15:38
  Speaker 10: Did you, like, Instagram or Facebook old girlfriends to see
• 15:42
  Speaker 10: what they look like now?
• 15:44
  Speaker 7: Oh, absolutely.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: I actually made the point at the table last night,
• 15:47
  Speaker 7: including the guys, I said, you know, I was never
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: really a good-looking kid. I was a horrible asthmatic, so
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: I was always sick. I weighed about 80 pounds soaking wet.
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: I had braces. I had dandruff. I really came into
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: my own about my junior year in high school. But now,
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: guys and girls, nobody looks better than me. Nobody. I'm
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: in good shape. I'm tan. I'm dressed nicely.
• 16:11
  Speaker 10: So out of this crew, you look like you look
• 16:13
  Speaker 10: better than Joe Takapina?
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: Well, Joe's a pretty handsome guy.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: He's a pretty handsome guy. He's in great shape. I'm
• 16:19
  Speaker 7: not going to say I'm better looking than Takapina, but
• 16:21
  Speaker 7: I'm right there.
• 16:21
  Speaker 10: So you'd be number two, like if you rated the
• 16:24
  Speaker 10: men who.
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: Showed up last night? One and one A. I'm not
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: about to.
• 16:27
  Speaker 10: Oh, so you're not even number two?
• 16:29
  Speaker 7: No, one and one A.
• 16:30
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 16:31
  Speaker 10: So you give him one and then you're one A?
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: No, I'm one.
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: He's one A. But the overwhelming majority of the guys
• 16:36
  Speaker 7: and girls, and I went to two different high schools,
• 16:38
  Speaker 7: don't forget. I went to Poly Prep in Bay Ridge,
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: and I went to Solomon Schechter Yeshiva. Right on Church
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: Avenue by the Prospect Expressway. And 95% of those people
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: look terrible.
• 16:51
  Speaker 10: Well, who looked worse last night? Who's the worst looking?
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: No, that I'm not going to do. I'm just not
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: going to do that.
• 16:55
  Speaker 10: Was it Danny Fogliano?
• 16:57
  Speaker 7: No, Danny looks great. Greg looks amazing.
• 16:59
  Speaker 8: He's like 1C.
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: 1C.
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: But to be honest, not the guys last night. When
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: I go back and look, the girls are all fat.
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: They've had like five kids, you know. That's over. And
• 17:09
  Speaker 7: the guys look terrible. They're in bad shape. They don't.
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: They don't work out. They're not tan. They look terrible.
• 17:15
  Speaker 10: There must have been one person at the table that
• 17:16
  Speaker 10: you were like, oh, this is not good.
• 17:18
  Speaker 7: No, I swear to God, I will tell you. Not
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: last night, but I'm sure if I delve into some
• 17:24
  Speaker 7: of the people. What's funny is the ones that were
• 17:28
  Speaker 7: considered the best looking back then, they looked, there I am.
• 17:31
  Speaker 10: That's always the case.
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: Look at New York One.
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: There I am. They're running the piece right now. There
• 17:37
  Speaker 7: I am.
• 17:37
  Speaker 10: Distracted by yourself on TV.
• 17:39
  Speaker 7: By myself with Caroline Schenkel on New York One right now.
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: Conservative radio host Sid Rosenberg. But what's funny is the
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: ones that looked the best back then, they look the
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: worst now.
• 17:49
  Speaker 10: That's always the case.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: And the ones that were not great back then, i.e.
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: Sid Rosenberg... The best-looking guy in radio today. It's not
• 17:57
  Speaker 7: even close.
• 17:57
  Speaker 10: You don't want to hit your peak.
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: Trump even said that. President Trump even said that.
• 18:00
  Speaker 10: You don't want to hit your peak in high school.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: No.
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: But I'm not sure you want to hit your peak
• 18:04
  Speaker 7: at 60 either.
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: There's got to be a happy medium. Oh, there's Michael Asher.
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: What a douchebag. So anyway, it was a wonderful evening
• 18:12
  Speaker 7: and spent time with the good friends. And we're going
• 18:14
  Speaker 7: to do it now a couple times a year. I've
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: got all these different groups. I've got the men's group
• 18:18
  Speaker 7: with Keith Kantrowitz and Mark Oranger and Mike Kemper, Anthony Caron,
• 18:23
  Speaker 7: Frank Caron, all those guys. Now I've got my high
• 18:26
  Speaker 7: school group. I've got all these different groups. And by
• 18:28
  Speaker 7: the way, talking about groups, you guys are family to me, Noam,
• 18:32
  Speaker 7: you and Lou and Justin. Two weeks from today, do
• 18:36
  Speaker 7: you know, Noam, what two weeks from today is?
• 18:40
  Speaker 10: Well, that would be today is the 8th.
• 18:42
  Speaker 7: That's right.
• 18:43
  Speaker 10: And two weeks from today, that would be.
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: 14 and 8 is what?
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: 22.
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: That would be the 22nd of October.
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: Right. I don't know.
• 18:54
  Speaker 10: What's the 22nd of October?
• 18:55
  Speaker 7: Two weeks from today, and I received the five-minute video,
• 18:59
  Speaker 7: which made me cry. I forgot I talked about my father. Literally,
• 19:03
  Speaker 7: it made me cry yesterday. And the run of show,
• 19:06
  Speaker 7: two weeks from today, I will be officially inducted at
• 19:10
  Speaker 7: the iconic Rainbow Room, Rockefeller Center, the New York State
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: Broadcasting Hall of Fame.
• 19:18
  Speaker 10: Big day.
• 19:18
  Speaker 7: Now, I got to talk to Chad and John. I
• 19:20
  Speaker 7: know John listens every morning. my boss, who I love dearly.
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: John does a great job in that video. He was terrific, John.
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: He really was. But you guys can't be here that day.
• 19:30
  Speaker 7: I know that, for example, Lou runs the board and
• 19:33
  Speaker 7: Justin answers phone calls for Greg Kelly. Well, they can't
• 19:37
  Speaker 7: do it that day, so I don't care who you get.
• 19:39
  Speaker 7: Get a weekend person. Who's that girl that's sick of
• 19:42
  Speaker 7: you every day now?
• 19:43
  Speaker 19: Caroline.
• 19:44
  Speaker 7: Caroline. Let her run the board. Lou and Justin, John
• 19:48
  Speaker 7: and Chad, need to be with all of us, including
• 19:50
  Speaker 7: you guys, at the Rainbow Room at 11 o'clock that morning,
• 19:54
  Speaker 7: not 1 o'clock in the afternoon. So let's get that going.
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: There's a lot of gays I need to sit down
• 20:04
  Speaker 7: and talk with the powers that be about. Not only now,
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: So you guys need to be out of here early
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: that day for the Hall of Fame in two weeks.
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: But as I showed you guys this morning, and I'll
• 20:15
  Speaker 7: let Lou and Noam tell you, you know, we played
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: the piece for Marco Rubio. And again, I thought about
• 20:20
  Speaker 7: John Katsimatidis.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 20:23
  Speaker 7: Because he's my favorite Greek. He just is. And he's
• 20:27
  Speaker 7: a very famous Greek person. And he loves his country.
• 20:31
  Speaker 7: And Marco Rubio spoke in Athens, Greece yesterday. And it
• 20:35
  Speaker 7: was one of the best speeches I've ever heard. I
• 20:38
  Speaker 7: mean that. It was inspirational. It was smart. He explained
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: how ancient Greece, getting all the way back to Socrates
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: and Plato, their lessons still apply to great government and
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: leadership today. It was a magnificent speech. It really was.
• 20:59
  Speaker 7: And then, I saw some of the speech last night.
• 21:02
  Speaker 7: I went to bed, you know. And then Louis, I
• 21:05
  Speaker 7: show Louis my phone in the car at about 4
• 21:07
  Speaker 7: o'clock this morning, knowing you're about 5.30 this morning, talking
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: about Marco's great speech in Athens yesterday. Lou, you do
• 21:16
  Speaker 7: it so I don't come off as an annoying narcissist.
• 21:20
  Speaker 7: We don't want that. I don't want to do that.
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: No, no.
• 21:23
  Speaker 8: Let's not start that.
• 21:25
  Speaker 7: Right. Because that's not me.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: No.
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: Who was texting my phone at 2.30 this morning? The truth?
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: The truth. Yeah, 2.30.
• 21:33
  Speaker 8: It was Marco Rubio.
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 21:36
  Speaker 8: From the plane.
• 21:37
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: Coming back from Greece.
• 21:42
  Speaker 7: 2.30 this morning, multiple texts from the Secretary of State,
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: who was on this show, what, Lou, about two weeks ago?
• 21:49
  Speaker 7: The U.N.
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: Week. He was on the U.N.
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: Week. He was on Tuesday. B.B. spoke on Thursday. Texting
• 21:55
  Speaker 7: my phone at 2.30 in the morning. So not only
• 21:58
  Speaker 7: do I need Lou and Justin to leave early two
• 22:01
  Speaker 7: weeks from today, but I need John and Cohen, whoever
• 22:05
  Speaker 7: else they use, to work for me on Wednesday because
• 22:10
  Speaker 7: I've been invited, this is a very, very big deal,
• 22:13
  Speaker 7: to the State Department on Wednesday morning, personal invite from
• 22:18
  Speaker 7: Marco Rubio himself and Howard Lutnick himself. They are going to,
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: and you saw this, Noam, they're going to have this
• 22:25
  Speaker 7: beautiful ceremony at the State Department for the American hostages,
• 22:31
  Speaker 7: not the Israelis, the American hostages who were murdered after
• 22:37
  Speaker 7: October the 7th, and there were a bunch. And then
• 22:40
  Speaker 7: I've been invited to stay there and have lunch at
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: the State Department. So this is obviously something, Noam, I've got.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: To do, right?
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a big deal.
• 22:49
  Speaker 10: You can't turn that down.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: No.
• 22:51
  Speaker 7: Rubio, Lutnik. And of course, I've got this. I keep
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: telling people this. I don't believe me. I got this
• 22:58
  Speaker 7: great relationship with Rubio like I do Trump. In fact,
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: Marco has texted me more than President Trump in the
• 23:05
  Speaker 7: last two weeks, you know, since I went to visit J.D.
• 23:09
  Speaker 7: Vance in his office at the White House. And, you know,
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: you guys know this is true. How many times, Norm,
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: has Marco Rubio all of a sudden texted me since
• 23:19
  Speaker 7: my J.D. Vance meeting?
• 23:20
  Speaker 10: At least a dozen times.
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
• 23:23
  Speaker 7: So that says to me, and he hasn't told me this,
• 23:26
  Speaker 7: Marco's going to run.
• 23:27
  Speaker 10: Oh, that speech yesterday was the beginning of his presidential run.
• 23:32
  Speaker 10: If you watch that speech, 100% he's running.
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: What a great speech. If that's true, what a way
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: to kick it off. But again, him reaching out to
• 23:40
  Speaker 7: me as often as he does now, inviting me to
• 23:42
  Speaker 7: all these events and That is my indication he's running
• 23:46
  Speaker 7: because when people run for office, not just in New York,
• 23:50
  Speaker 7: they want to be with Sid Rosenberg. President Trump came
• 23:53
  Speaker 7: on the show as a candidate, what, 10 times? Come on, Sid,
• 23:57
  Speaker 7: get me New York. Rubio's texted me 10 times in
• 24:00
  Speaker 7: the last couple of weeks. And who's coming on the
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: program today? Today, he's running for president, Ted Cruz.
• 24:08
  Speaker 10: Now, has, you know, you had this big powwow with, J.D. Vance,
• 24:12
  Speaker 10: was that about two weeks ago now?
• 24:13
  Speaker 7: Yeah, two weeks ago.
• 24:14
  Speaker 10: And have you texted back and forth with the vice president?
• 24:17
  Speaker 7: Nothing. And I speak to his chief of staff, Nick Luna,
• 24:21
  Speaker 7: since that meeting about five times. I've spoken back and
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: forth to his guy, Will Martin, about three times.
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: Why?
• 24:27
  Speaker 7: Because I wanted, I invited, not wanted to, I invited
• 24:31
  Speaker 7: the vice president to come on this program yesterday. And
• 24:35
  Speaker 7: I said to his people, I said, listen, guys, J.D.
• 24:38
  Speaker 7: has a problem with the Jewish community, okay? They didn't
• 24:43
  Speaker 7: all buy in because I went to the White House.
• 24:46
  Speaker 7: A lot of them want Marco Rubio. They don't want J.D.
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: Vance.
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: It would serve the vice president well to hop on
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: this program. He's never been on for 10 minutes on
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: October 7th to speak to the Jewish community here in
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: New York. I thought it made a lot of sense.
• 25:04
  Speaker 7: What about you, Noam? Of course.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: Nothing.
• 25:06
  Speaker 7: Nothing. Will Morton texted me back.
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: He said, listen.
• 25:10
  Speaker 7: We're on the way to Alaska. We're campaigning for Dan Sullivan.
• 25:13
  Speaker 7: I said, great, fantastic. How about coming on tomorrow?
• 25:17
  Speaker 19: Nothing.
• 25:18
  Speaker 7: So twice since I sat down with J.D. Vance, twice
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: I've invited him on the show. He's never come. Since then,
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: Rubio's been on the show and continues to text me
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: and now has invited me to the State Department for
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: this big, big event coming up next Wednesday morning. So
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: you see the jockeying here, okay? J.D. wanted to meet me,
• 25:40
  Speaker 7: but he's not doing much with it. He's not. The
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: other guys, Ted Cruz, he's on today, and Rubio and
• 25:46
  Speaker 7: I have this great relationship. So right in the middle
• 25:50
  Speaker 7: of all of it, not just Caroline Schenkel, not just
• 25:53
  Speaker 7: Bruce Blateman, not just the last two mayor runs with
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: that idiot Curtis Sliwa, right in the middle of all
• 26:00
  Speaker 7: of it, whether it's local or federal, is us. Right
• 26:06
  Speaker 7: or wrong? No.
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 26:07
  Speaker 10: Well, and if you're Marco Rubio, you or you're thinking
• 26:10
  Speaker 10: about a run for the White House, you want to
• 26:12
  Speaker 10: start to gather your friends now.
• 26:14
  Speaker 7: And he knows he knows he got me.
• 26:16
  Speaker 10: You've already said you're my number one choice.
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: Well, you know, even after I met J.D. Vance, remember
• 26:21
  Speaker 7: when I was in the New York Post and columns
• 26:24
  Speaker 7: all over the country, there's like a thousand articles written
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: about that day. It was a big deal. And almost
• 26:29
  Speaker 7: every one of them said the same thing. Sid was
• 26:32
  Speaker 7: charmed by J.D.
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: Vance. J.D.
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: Vance is actually more charmed by Sid. But Sid even
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: admitted after the meeting that he liked J.D., but Marco
• 26:41
  Speaker 7: Rubio is still his number one choice. You remember that?
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 26:46
  Speaker 7: That was after the meeting. So Marco knows that. I
• 26:49
  Speaker 7: send Marco every story written about me. I send Trump
• 26:52
  Speaker 7: every story. So they see it, you know? And Marco's like, okay.
• 26:57
  Speaker 7: And his girl, Laura Ortiz, who I love dearly, And
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: I met Laura Ortiz for lunch at John's coffee shop
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: right before I went to see Bebe speak at the U.N.
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: She's amazing. In fact, she's on the flight right now
• 27:09
  Speaker 7: with Marco coming home. And both of them were texting
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: me between 2.30 and 5 o'clock this morning. You know
• 27:16
  Speaker 7: what that's called, Noam? Juice. I got juice.
• 27:20
  Speaker 10: That you do.
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 27:21
  Speaker 7: I don't know what that means, but. I don't know.
• 27:24
  Speaker 10: I was just sitting here nodding my head.
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: That's exactly what it does for me, right. I mean,
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: don't become this patronizing dick. It's like Charles McCourt already.
• 27:33
  Speaker 10: It's too late for that.
• 27:34
  Speaker 20: You can't do that.
• 27:35
  Speaker 8: You can't go against him.
• 27:36
  Speaker 7: Don't go against him. Don't do that.
• 27:39
  Speaker 8: See that line, Noam? Just stay right on that.
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: Yeah, just stay on that.
• 27:42
  Speaker 8: Don't go either way. Don't make him more of a narcissistic, crazy.
• 27:45
  Speaker 10: Person than he is.
• 27:46
  Speaker 7: We don't want to do that. So somebody says to
• 27:51
  Speaker 7: me yesterday, they go, let me ask you something. Did
• 27:53
  Speaker 7: you see Mike Huckabee's response to my Imam Dhani's statement yesterday?
• 27:58
  Speaker 7: He said, yeah, it was very nice. And I spoke
• 28:00
  Speaker 7: to Mike Huckabee yesterday. Here I go again, dropping names
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: like Pat O'Brien. But I did. Very nice response. Did
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: you hear Joe Potasnik? We played Potasnik this morning. Yeah,
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: very nice. Why can't you, one person said this, why
• 28:13
  Speaker 7: can't you deliver your message in similar fashion? And I said,
• 28:18
  Speaker 7: I could. And I love Huckabee, and I love Potashnik.
• 28:22
  Speaker 7: Love him. One of the nicest men you've ever met.
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: But if Joe Potashnik hosted this show, he wouldn't get
• 28:28
  Speaker 7: a three. So I can do it that way, sure.
• 28:32
  Speaker 7: But kiss your fives and sixes goodbye. Because whether you
• 28:36
  Speaker 7: like it or not, and whether you think it's over
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: the top or not, One of the reasons why, if
• 28:44
  Speaker 7: not the main reason why, people listen to this show
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: is because I talk like an everyday guy. I'm not
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: trying to impress you with my vocabulary, which I've got
• 28:54
  Speaker 7: a decent one, okay? And I curse like I do
• 28:58
  Speaker 7: every day on the street, like everybody does. I said,
• 29:01
  Speaker 7: do you know who curses about as much as I
• 29:04
  Speaker 7: do and does it publicly? The President of the United States.
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: So don't worry that every now and then on Twitter
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: or on the radio show I curse out the mayor.
• 29:14
  Speaker 7: That's what people want. Okay? They don't want this sanitized version.
• 29:21
  Speaker 7: You can say it nicer. Sure I could. And I
• 29:23
  Speaker 7: can kiss my ratings goodbye. Am I wrong? All the
• 29:28
  Speaker 7: people that always tell me to do it this way,
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: do it that way, don't get the ratings that I get.
• 29:32
  Speaker 7: Not even close. Don't you agree, Norman Lou, that people
• 29:37
  Speaker 7: love that about this show? You know, that it's not
• 29:40
  Speaker 7: always so dignified and so sanitized and I just go nuts.
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: Not sanitized.
• 29:47
  Speaker 8: That's the word I was probably going to use.
• 29:49
  Speaker 7: Don't you think people love that about that? That's part
• 29:51
  Speaker 7: of the appeal.
• 29:52
  Speaker 8: Realness.
• 29:52
  Speaker 21: Right.
• 29:53
  Speaker 8: Who was the person that?
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: I can't tell you that.
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: All right. But I will say this. My own wife,
• 29:58
  Speaker 7: who's a huge fan, she gets upset every now and then, Daniel.
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: Why do you got to curse like that? I go, Daniel,
• 30:04
  Speaker 7: that's how I talk at home. See, radio, you're not
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: supposed to come on the air. And I say this
• 30:11
  Speaker 7: to young kids all the time. Don't change your voice.
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: I yell at Justin about that every now and then.
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: Don't change your voice, okay? Talk on the air like
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: you talk off the air. And if you're the type
• 30:21
  Speaker 7: of guy that has a broken accent and curses all
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: day long, do it on the air. Now, you can't
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: say seven words because that'll result in a whopping fine,
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: which could end up with you getting fined and maybe
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: even termination. But I don't use those words. I use
• 30:38
  Speaker 7: words that are shocking. Yes, but not illegal. And some
• 30:44
  Speaker 7: people don't like it at all. You know, you know,
• 30:47
  Speaker 7: he's the mayor. He won. And, you know, got to
• 30:49
  Speaker 7: show respect. No, I don't. No, I don't. And as
• 30:53
  Speaker 7: soon as I start to do that, I'm telling you,
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: you're going to see a difference. People stop me in
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: the street and they go, oh my God, Sid, I
• 31:02
  Speaker 7: love you so much. Every day, you say exactly what
• 31:05
  Speaker 7: I think. You say exactly what I think. So if
• 31:09
  Speaker 7: I clean it up and I sanitize it to make
• 31:13
  Speaker 7: it okay for certain people, be prepared, be prepared. to
• 31:19
  Speaker 7: lose some of the shine that this show has. Do
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: you think, Norm, I'm overstating that?
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: No.
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: So why do people keep doing the same stupid thing
• 31:29
  Speaker 7: year in and year out? Just be quiet. You know,
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: when the ratings start to go, when advertisers start to complain,
• 31:36
  Speaker 7: when you lose, forget about complaining. I don't care about complaining.
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: When you lose advertisers, when I'm getting ratings like Curtis,
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: then you have those conversations. Until then, suck it up
• 31:47
  Speaker 7: and shut up.
• 31:48
  Speaker 8: That's a good shirt.
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: Thank you very much.
• 31:50
  Speaker 10: You don't curse the most, though, on this program. Mike
• 31:53
  Speaker 10: Lawler would win that award.
• 31:54
  Speaker 7: Oh, my God. Lawler says the uproar twice every time
• 31:57
  Speaker 7: he comes on. Forgot about that. Mike Lawler's always a
• 32:00
  Speaker 7: potty mouth.
• 32:02
  Speaker 10: How many times do you have to put the seven-second delay.
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: In place when he's on? All kidding aside, he's good
• 32:11
  Speaker 7: for three or four times.
• 32:12
  Speaker 8: I always are, but I can't leave.
• 32:14
  Speaker 10: Right, you can't walk out of the room.
• 32:15
  Speaker 5: I can't get out.
• 32:16
  Speaker 11: I can't go out and call people or something like, oh,
• 32:18
  Speaker 11: there it is, Lawler's on. He's out, and it blends
• 32:23
  Speaker 11: in so much. It's not like he's about to curse.
• 32:26
  Speaker 11: He just goes, if they understood their effing job.
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: Well, I never say the F word. I only said
• 32:32
  Speaker 7: the F word in about 11 years here once, and
• 32:34
  Speaker 7: it was yesterday. I was so angry about the mayor's statement.
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: I did say the F word, and Lou dumped it. But,
• 32:40
  Speaker 7: of course, if you're listening on the Internet.
• 32:43
  Speaker 10: You hear it.
• 32:44
  Speaker 7: You hear it. People are like, oh, my God, Sid,
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: that was so cool. But if you show that to Daniel,
• 32:48
  Speaker 7: I go, look, they love it. Liv Schreiber, the actor,
• 32:51
  Speaker 7: loves it. He loves it when I curse on the air.
• 32:54
  Speaker 7: What is that?
• 32:55
  Speaker 8: I'm sure that must have allayed her fears.
• 32:56
  Speaker 7: Well, she loves Liv. She loves him. Ray Donovan. Yeah, well, fine.
• 33:00
  Speaker 7: That's how you shut people up when people that you
• 33:02
  Speaker 7: love and admire say, that's a great job. That's why
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: I listen to you. Then they shut up.
• 33:07
  Speaker 5: I think.
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: I don't know. I don't.
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: I don't even know anymore.
• 33:12
  Speaker 7: What do I know?
• 33:13
  Speaker 8: It wakes people up.
• 33:14
  Speaker 7: That's what's needed sometimes. That's right. I'm as cursed all
• 33:18
  Speaker 7: the time. All the time. Stern, he went to SiriusXM
• 33:24
  Speaker 7: just so he can say the F word.
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 33:27
  Speaker 10: The only problem is when Mike Lawler's on and he
• 33:30
  Speaker 10: curses so much. If you're listening on the radio, you
• 33:33
  Speaker 10: hear a jumbled mess. It doesn't make any sense.
• 33:35
  Speaker 7: 100% true. It's completely butchered.
• 33:37
  Speaker 8: At this point, it gets lost.
• 33:38
  Speaker 7: It gets lost. And then if you curse like two
• 33:41
  Speaker 7: times in a row in like five seconds, it becomes
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: difficult to dump them both. And then it really sounds
• 33:46
  Speaker 7: like crap.
• 33:46
  Speaker 8: Well, you lose about 20 to 30 seconds.
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's rough.
• 33:50
  Speaker 7: But I'm not changing my style anytime soon until I
• 33:54
  Speaker 7: start to see a rapid decline in ratings and revenue
• 33:56
  Speaker 7: and all those things that matter. In this business. Until then,
• 34:00
  Speaker 7: when people continue to stop me every single day and go, Sid,
• 34:03
  Speaker 7: you say exactly what I feel, that's what this show
• 34:06
  Speaker 7: is going to be. Sound good, Noam?
• 34:08
  Speaker 10: I'm on board.
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, sure.
• 34:09
  Speaker 7: I appreciate that. Very nice of you to say that.
• 34:12
  Speaker 7: But the mayor really did. I mean, what he did
• 34:16
  Speaker 7: yesterday was really disgraceful. I mean, one day, just one day,
• 34:21
  Speaker 7: give it to the Jews. I know you hate the Jews.
• 34:25
  Speaker 7: He's not an anti-Semite. He's anti-Zionist. Don't say that to me, please.
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: We know he hates the Jews. Everybody knows he hates
• 34:34
  Speaker 7: the Jews, except for the people that are his sycophants,
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: the people that surround him. Like Brad Lander, for example.
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: Brad Lander may be the worst Jew God ever created.
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: He's in that same class as Chuck Schumer, who at
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: this point is basically a Palestinian. You know, Jamie Raskin
• 34:51
  Speaker 7: and Jerry Nadler and all these... Jews, I guess. Brad
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: Lander may be the worst of all of them. Brad Lander,
• 35:00
  Speaker 7: this lowlife, has, you ready for this, Palestinian Shabbat dinners.
• 35:04
  Speaker 7: I mean, don't forget, the mayor on October 7th felt
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: the need yesterday to go to a Palestinian vigil. In
• 35:12
  Speaker 7: the meantime, the Palestinians are the ones who murdered the
• 35:15
  Speaker 7: Jews on that day. Yes, mayors stupid. Hamas are Palestinians.
• 35:23
  Speaker 7: You know that, Nomad.
• 35:24
  Speaker 10: Would say that again?
• 35:25
  Speaker 7: Hamas are Palestinians.
• 35:27
  Speaker 10: Well, of course they are.
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: So why would you go to a Palestinian vigil on
• 35:31
  Speaker 7: October 7th when the Palestinians. They may be radical Hamas,
• 35:35
  Speaker 7: but their Palestinians murdered the Jews on that day. Why
• 35:38
  Speaker 7: would you show any sympathy on that day to the Palestinians?
• 35:42
  Speaker 7: You want to continue the lie, the genocide lie? That's
• 35:45
  Speaker 7: a lie. The war criminal lie? That's a lie. Do
• 35:48
  Speaker 7: it on the 8th.
• 35:49
  Speaker 10: Or the 6th.
• 35:49
  Speaker 7: Do it today. Or the day before, exactly. But only
• 35:52
  Speaker 7: a real Jew hater whose wife is a skank and
• 35:56
  Speaker 7: whose father is a lowlife would do what the mayor
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: did yesterday. So I do not apologize. For the way
• 36:03
  Speaker 7: I described them, both on Twitter. You know that tweet
• 36:06
  Speaker 7: got like a million views? At Sid Rosenberg 19. Clearly
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: people were so upset. You know, the Secretary of State
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: was reading it on the way back from Greece. Nobody cares.
• 36:17
  Speaker 7: They agree with me. Ted Cruz agrees with me. I
• 36:20
  Speaker 7: guarantee you Ted Cruz will say that this morning. Boy,
• 36:23
  Speaker 7: I spoke to Ted yesterday. I already know he does.
• 36:25
  Speaker 7: I already know he does.
• 36:26
  Speaker 10: I was about to ask you.
• 36:28
  Speaker 7: Nice conversation. At Sid Rosenberg 19 on Twitter. And then,
• 36:32
  Speaker 7: of course, I did this video with Kaylee. Kylie, I'm sorry.
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: She's very good. Kylie Fitzgerald, which we posted here at WABC,
• 36:41
  Speaker 7: which basically was my tweet without all the curses. But
• 36:46
  Speaker 7: I don't regret any of it. The guy couldn't find
• 36:48
  Speaker 7: one day. But you know what was great? Melissa Russo.
• 36:52
  Speaker 7: who's so far up his ass she's checking for polyps?
• 36:56
  Speaker 7: NBC reporter Melissa Russo, you should be ashamed of yourself. Jewish?
• 37:00
  Speaker 7: You're not Jewish. You're Jewish like Chuck Schumer's Jewish. If
• 37:04
  Speaker 7: you are, I don't want you. All right? Yes, I
• 37:06
  Speaker 7: am the arbiter. Ladies and gentlemen, Sid Rosenberg is the
• 37:11
  Speaker 7: arbiter of who's a good Jew and who's not. I
• 37:15
  Speaker 7: made it that way. You don't like it?
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: Tough.
• 37:18
  Speaker 7: I made it that way. Melissa Russo, you're a crappy Jew,
• 37:21
  Speaker 7: like Doug Emhoff was, the husband of Kamala Harris, a
• 37:25
  Speaker 7: crappy Jew. So she does a whole report last night
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: on how the mayor, this was so great, goes to
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: the Palestinian vigil and they booed him. He got booed
• 37:37
  Speaker 7: both sides of the street. The Jews obviously hated him,
• 37:41
  Speaker 7: but even his own team hated He's standing there with
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: Jumaane Williams and Brad Lander getting booed by the Palestinians.
• 37:49
  Speaker 7: The pro-Hamas animals were booing the mayor, Noam. You saw that, right?
• 37:53
  Speaker 10: There was way more pro-Palestinian protesters in Union Square Park
• 37:58
  Speaker 10: than there were people who had shown up for the.
• 38:00
  Speaker 7: October 7th vigil. But they all booed him, both sides.
• 38:05
  Speaker 7: Correct me if I'm wrong. Both sides. We played the
• 38:08
  Speaker 7: news piece. Rousseau did it to it. I just didn't
• 38:10
  Speaker 7: play it. Both sides were booing the mayor, right?
• 38:13
  Speaker 10: I don't know if the Jewish side was because the
• 38:16
  Speaker 10: event that he went to was with Brad Lander.
• 38:19
  Speaker 7: Brad Lander is the worst Jew ever.
• 38:21
  Speaker 10: So he's garbage. But the the they were you could
• 38:27
  Speaker 10: not hear what was going on during the event last night.
• 38:30
  Speaker 10: I don't know why they decided to.
• 38:31
  Speaker 7: Do it outside. Explain this to me. Why were the
• 38:36
  Speaker 7: pro-Hamas people bullying Mamdani? He's on their side.
• 38:39
  Speaker 10: He thinks that any nod, any nod towards Israel, these
• 38:43
  Speaker 10: pro-Palestinian protesters, they called him a traitor for doing anything
• 38:48
  Speaker 10: that sides with Israel. They called him, you know, pro-genocide.
• 38:52
  Speaker 10: I mean, they were screaming all kinds of things at
• 38:53
  Speaker 10: him last night.
• 38:54
  Speaker 7: So cool. Oh, my God. I had a.
• 38:57
  Speaker 10: He looked pretty uncomfortable standing up.
• 38:59
  Speaker 7: He looked very uncomfortable, and that made me happy. I
• 39:02
  Speaker 7: want this miserable bastard to be unhappy every day of
• 39:05
  Speaker 7: his life. I hate his guts. I say it all
• 39:09
  Speaker 7: the time. I text it to Trump all the time.
• 39:12
  Speaker 7: I texted it to Rubio. I told Cruz. They know.
• 39:16
  Speaker 7: I hate his guts. I'm not going to be nice
• 39:18
  Speaker 7: to him because he's the mayor or because people do business.
• 39:21
  Speaker 7: I don't care, okay? It doesn't matter to me. I am,
• 39:26
  Speaker 7: my feelings are authentic and visceral. And they've been that
• 39:31
  Speaker 7: way since this bastard became a real threat to win.
• 39:35
  Speaker 7: And nobody in this city, I know Vicky Palladino's great,
• 39:38
  Speaker 7: and Scott Lobato, and Bo Dietl, nobody in this city
• 39:42
  Speaker 7: has been on this guy more than me from day one,
• 39:45
  Speaker 7: every day, 20 hours a week. This is not a
• 39:49
  Speaker 7: new thing for me. I've been consistent from the very beginning.
• 39:53
  Speaker 7: All my fears with this loser have been realized. And
• 39:57
  Speaker 7: I think yours too, Noam, yes?
• 39:58
  Speaker 10: You know, each time you think he's sort of shocked you,
• 40:02
  Speaker 10: he shocks you even more.
• 40:03
  Speaker 7: Yesterday.
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: Yesterday.
• 40:05
  Speaker 7: I really thought yesterday he may throw in a sentence
• 40:08
  Speaker 7: or two about the Palestinians.
• 40:09
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 40:09
  Speaker 7: I did. But I thought the overwhelming meat of his
• 40:13
  Speaker 7: statement would be about Israel. Two sentences on Israel.
• 40:16
  Speaker 10: It was like four sentences on Israel.
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 40:18
  Speaker 10: And then 15 or 17 sentences about genocide.
• 40:22
  Speaker 7: And blaming the Israelis and the Americans.
• 40:24
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 40:25
  Speaker 7: He called the United States, President Trump, please. I'm begging you.
• 40:28
  Speaker 7: What do I got to do, Mr.
• 40:29
  Speaker 5: President?
• 40:30
  Speaker 7: What? Maybe I'll see you in D.C. again next Wednesday.
• 40:33
  Speaker 7: I'm going to make my way to the White House.
• 40:35
  Speaker 7: I'm going to talk to you. He said we're complicit
• 40:37
  Speaker 7: in genocide. He said, President Trump and America, we are
• 40:42
  Speaker 7: complicit in genocide. Did he not?
• 40:45
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 40:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 40:46
  Speaker 7: What are we doing with this creep? What are we doing?
• 40:50
  Speaker 7: It's enough. It's not even a year. Not even a year.
• 40:55
  Speaker 7: This jihad is going to be in charge for four years.
• 40:59
  Speaker 7: What are we going to do?
• 41:00
  Speaker 10: And you think about it, it's only a week after
• 41:02
  Speaker 10: at least he was trying to make inroads with the
• 41:05
  Speaker 10: Jewish community.
• 41:06
  Speaker 7: Oh, with that stupid video? Right. That nobody bought unless you're, again,
• 41:09
  Speaker 7: Brad Lander or Chuck Schumer?
• 41:11
  Speaker 10: No, but then to then turn around less than seven
• 41:13
  Speaker 10: days later and to write such a hostile comment.
• 41:17
  Speaker 7: You know, that means he's stupid, too. If I hear
• 41:19
  Speaker 7: one more time he went to the Bronx School of Science,
• 41:20
  Speaker 7: he's a smart guy, Trump. He's not a smart guy,
• 41:22
  Speaker 7: he's stupid. Because you've been lying to people about just
• 41:26
  Speaker 7: about everything. He's a liar. And now, to your point, maybe,
• 41:32
  Speaker 7: you know, you reeled in a couple of fish last week.
• 41:35
  Speaker 7: So let it lie. Take advantage of it. But he
• 41:38
  Speaker 7: can't help himself because this is who he is. It's
• 41:42
  Speaker 7: not his wife. It's not his father. He's just like them.
• 41:46
  Speaker 7: He hates the Jewish people. Brad Lander is not a Jew.
• 41:51
  Speaker 7: He's a phony Jew. He's a fake Jew. And every
• 41:54
  Speaker 7: Jew shouldn't even talk to Brad Lander. I don't care.
• 41:58
  Speaker 7: People go to me at the ferry. What about all
• 42:01
  Speaker 7: the Jews that hate Bibi? What do I care? What
• 42:04
  Speaker 7: about all the Jews that love Mamdani? What do I care?
• 42:08
  Speaker 7: They're not tough Jews to me. I told you. I
• 42:12
  Speaker 7: made it clear moments ago. I am the arbiter of
• 42:15
  Speaker 7: who's a good Jew and who's not. Can I make
• 42:19
  Speaker 7: myself that known? I guess I can.
• 42:21
  Speaker 10: I think we need to come up with a name,
• 42:23
  Speaker 10: you know, some sort of title if.
• 42:24
  Speaker 5: You do that. Right.
• 42:26
  Speaker 7: We should do that. Louis, get on that, okay, buddy?
• 42:28
  Speaker 7: We need a title for I become the arbiter of
• 42:31
  Speaker 7: who's a good Jew and who's not.
• 42:32
  Speaker 8: This is Sid Rosenberg, judger of Jews.
• 42:35
  Speaker 10: There you go.
• 42:36
  Speaker 7: Judger of Jews. Judger of Jews. I do kind of
• 42:38
  Speaker 7: like that.
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 42:40
  Speaker 7: That's it. So you present the name to me, and
• 42:43
  Speaker 7: I tell you whether they're really a Jew or a fake, fugazi,
• 42:48
  Speaker 7: phony Jew, like Doug Emhoff, Chuck Schumer, Brad Lander, those losers. Oh, no,
• 42:53
  Speaker 7: what else is going on?
• 42:55
  Speaker 8: Submit your name, please. Approach when requested.
• 43:02
  Speaker 10: The Yankees, unfortunately, their season ended last night up in
• 43:06
  Speaker 10: the Bronx. Lost to the Tampa Bay Rays. Swept out
• 43:09
  Speaker 10: of the postseason three games to none. But the game
• 43:12
  Speaker 10: was not without controversy. Bottom of the sixth, the Yankees
• 43:16
  Speaker 10: are losing 4-3 to the Rays. And Anthony Volpe hits
• 43:20
  Speaker 10: what potentially is a game-tying home run. But a fan...
• 43:25
  Speaker 10: And the stands catches the ball. And they then decide
• 43:28
  Speaker 10: to rule it as a double. So the game ended.
• 43:31
  Speaker 10: Same score, 4-3 Yankees. Season is over. Tampa Bay moves
• 43:35
  Speaker 10: on now. They either play the White Sox or the Gardenians.
• 43:38
  Speaker 7: Well, the White Sox have a chance to move on tonight.
• 43:41
  Speaker 7: That series is 2-1 Chicago. And the NLCS is all set.
• 43:45
  Speaker 7: The Los Angeles Dodgers will take on the Milwaukee Brewers.
• 43:49
  Speaker 7: It's only two teams in baseball this year to win
• 43:52
  Speaker 7: at least 100 games tonight. The Dodgers and the Brewers,
• 43:55
  Speaker 7: so you get the two best teams in the NL.
• 43:58
  Speaker 7: Tampa Bay won the most games in the American League.
• 44:00
  Speaker 7: They won 98. They're on the way to the ALCS.
• 44:03
  Speaker 7: And you either get Cleveland or the White Sox, so
• 44:05
  Speaker 7: pretty good postseason, before baseball stops for at the very
• 44:10
  Speaker 7: least a couple of months, if not the whole 2027 season.
• 44:13
  Speaker 7: We'll see.
• 44:13
  Speaker 10: Can you imagine having a World Series where it's Milwaukee
• 44:18
  Speaker 10: versus Tampa Bay? Who's watching that?
• 44:20
  Speaker 7: People in Milwaukee and people in Tampa Bay. You know, listen,
• 44:23
  Speaker 7: even if you get the Yankees and the Dodgers, okay,
• 44:25
  Speaker 7: now you get the two coasts. And I've explained this
• 44:27
  Speaker 7: to people for a long time. Baseball is a regional sport.
• 44:32
  Speaker 7: What does that mean? What that means is if you're
• 44:35
  Speaker 7: a Yankee fan, you watch every Yankee game. But you
• 44:38
  Speaker 7: know what? You're not going to stay up at night
• 44:41
  Speaker 7: and the West Coast watch the Angels take on the Mariners.
• 44:47
  Speaker 7: You just don't do it. Football... different story not a
• 44:51
  Speaker 7: regional sport a national sport so you're a giant fan
• 44:56
  Speaker 7: but guess what you're watching the chargers and the raiders
• 45:00
  Speaker 7: at four o'clock you're watching even the falcons and the
• 45:03
  Speaker 7: saints on monday night now there are different reasons for
• 45:06
  Speaker 7: that and we're gonna have an honest conversation there's a
• 45:10
  Speaker 7: one-word answer for all of it one word you want
• 45:13
  Speaker 7: to take a guess betting bang gambling exactly right lewis
• 45:18
  Speaker 7: Because football fans, while they love their team, I'm a
• 45:22
  Speaker 7: Giant fan, Joe's a Jet fan. Whether you're playing fantasy sports,
• 45:26
  Speaker 7: which is betting on individuals or betting on the games,
• 45:30
  Speaker 7: almost every football fan I know, almost everyone wagers in
• 45:35
  Speaker 7: some capacity. Maybe it's $ 10 a game. Maybe it's $ 10, 000.
• 45:39
  Speaker 7: Maybe you've got a fantasy league. That's not the case
• 45:42
  Speaker 7: with baseball. I mean, there are fantasy baseball leagues in
• 45:45
  Speaker 7: the millions and Wall Street, all that type of thing.
• 45:47
  Speaker 7: But it's a regional sport. They don't gamble on baseball.
• 45:51
  Speaker 7: In fact, they don't gamble on any sport nearly as
• 45:54
  Speaker 7: much as the National Football League. No other league tells
• 45:58
  Speaker 7: you who's injured and who's not four days before the game.
• 46:02
  Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying? No other league. So that's
• 46:06
  Speaker 7: the difference between baseball. So as bad as the Brewers
• 46:09
  Speaker 7: and Rays sound and as sexy as the Dodgers and
• 46:13
  Speaker 7: Yankees sound, believe it or not, it doesn't really matter.
• 46:17
  Speaker 7: Because the rest of the country, they're not watching the
• 46:20
  Speaker 7: Yankees and the Dodgers. No, they're not doing it. Chris
• 46:23
  Speaker 7: Russo is, and Peter Gammons, Bob Costas, and all those
• 46:27
  Speaker 7: real diehard baseball guys. But if you lived in Miami
• 46:31
  Speaker 7: or Boca, well, maybe that's a bad example because there's
• 46:33
  Speaker 7: so many New Yorkers. But if you live in Milwaukee
• 46:37
  Speaker 7: or Cleveland or Sacramento, that's a bad example. You're not
• 46:41
  Speaker 7: going to watch the Dodgers and the Yankees. But there's
• 46:44
  Speaker 7: a chance it'll be Milwaukee, Tampa Bay, absolutely. What else
• 46:46
  Speaker 7: you got?
• 46:47
  Speaker 10: They finally caught up with this 31-year-old Angelo Carrasco. He
• 46:54
  Speaker 10: was the one who allegedly pushed his 23-year-old ex-girlfriend Natalie
• 46:59
  Speaker 10: and her baby off that Bronx balcony.
• 47:02
  Speaker 7: Firing squad. This guy needs to get the firing squad.
• 47:05
  Speaker 7: This poor young girl begged for her life, I was
• 47:08
  Speaker 7: told this. Maybe you said it. She said, please, you
• 47:11
  Speaker 7: don't have to do this. Please, you don't have to
• 47:13
  Speaker 7: do this. The baby survived, I guess, but is in
• 47:15
  Speaker 7: critical condition because... The mother took the brunt of the
• 47:18
  Speaker 7: fall and died right there on the spot, and the
• 47:20
  Speaker 7: baby actually landed on the mother's chest. That baby still
• 47:23
  Speaker 7: may die. But this guy, firing squad.
• 47:26
  Speaker 10: I think they should do the same thing to him
• 47:27
  Speaker 10: that he did to her.
• 47:29
  Speaker 7: We don't do that here. Listen, I'm all for that.
• 47:32
  Speaker 7: I've said that. on the air before people were horrified,
• 47:35
  Speaker 7: you kill somebody, you should die the way you killed them.
• 47:38
  Speaker 7: If you stabbed somebody 60 times, you should be stabbed
• 47:41
  Speaker 7: 60 times. Don't tell me I'm a barbarian. Don't tell
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: me we don't do that here. We're better than that.
• 47:47
  Speaker 7: I'm not better than that. You know how many times
• 47:49
  Speaker 7: I've been told when I do curse on the air
• 47:52
  Speaker 7: or I say something that's sexual in nature or something
• 47:55
  Speaker 7: that people get offended by and I'm told, you're better
• 47:58
  Speaker 7: than that. Do you know what my response always is? No,
• 48:02
  Speaker 7: I'm not. I'm not. I'm not better than that. No,
• 48:06
  Speaker 7: I'm not. So I'm with you 100%. However you kill somebody,
• 48:11
  Speaker 7: that's how you should die. I love that. That would
• 48:14
  Speaker 7: be America at its finest. I know the Christians out
• 48:17
  Speaker 7: there are like, Sid, shut up. Shut up, Sid. That's
• 48:20
  Speaker 7: how I feel. I am a pro-death penalty guy. I'm sorry. Oh,
• 48:25
  Speaker 7: what if your father, oh, my father's already dead. They
• 48:28
  Speaker 7: can't kill him twice. But what if your son, what
• 48:31
  Speaker 7: if Gabriel, you know, and look, you can't make decisions
• 48:37
  Speaker 7: when you're in a government position or a court position
• 48:41
  Speaker 7: based on your personal life. I love when people do that.
• 48:43
  Speaker 7: What if it's your kid? You can't make decisions like that.
• 48:45
  Speaker 7: You know that, right? You make decisions based on the
• 48:49
  Speaker 7: greater good. You can't make it personal. If you did that,
• 48:52
  Speaker 7: you'd never get anything accomplished because I'm scared to death
• 48:55
  Speaker 7: of anything bad happening to Ava or Gabriel or Danielle
• 48:58
  Speaker 7: or any of my loved ones. You can't do that.
• 49:01
  Speaker 7: You make decisions for the greater good. And the greater
• 49:05
  Speaker 7: good is criminals don't belong out there. And I don't
• 49:09
  Speaker 7: want to pay taxes for them to eat and shower
• 49:12
  Speaker 7: and watch Sally Jesse Raphael when three people are dead.
• 49:18
  Speaker 7: I don't want to do it. No thanks.
• 49:20
  Speaker 10: But you're going to. This guy will just rot in
• 49:23
  Speaker 10: prison for the rest of his life.
• 49:24
  Speaker 7: Oh, I know it. I know it. Well, unless they
• 49:26
  Speaker 7: send him to all New York. That's right. He's not
• 49:27
  Speaker 7: going to get the death penalty. What else you got, handsome?
• 49:32
  Speaker 10: One much lighter note, but still kind of wild. So
• 49:34
  Speaker 10: there have been these packs of Romanian immigrants that have
• 49:39
  Speaker 10: been going around the tri-state. Have you heard of the
• 49:41
  Speaker 10: Hug Me scam?
• 49:43
  Speaker 7: No, I haven't.
• 49:44
  Speaker 10: So two Romanian nationals were picked up yesterday. They'll be
• 49:48
  Speaker 10: sent back to Romania. So they came up with this
• 49:50
  Speaker 10: plan where they'll stop mostly elderly people and they'll ask
• 49:54
  Speaker 10: them for directions. And the elderly person will say, OK,
• 49:56
  Speaker 10: this is how you get to the supermarkets. And then
• 49:58
  Speaker 10: they come over and they say, well, it's in our
• 49:59
  Speaker 10: tradition to hug somebody once they do something nice for us.
• 50:04
  Speaker 10: And amid that hug, they've been stealing gold chains off
• 50:07
  Speaker 10: of people's necks. There's been at least 12 episodes of this,
• 50:10
  Speaker 10: maybe even just on Long Island and New Jersey and
• 50:13
  Speaker 10: New York alone. Well, thankfully, Nassau County cops have caught
• 50:16
  Speaker 10: up with these creeps. And thankfully, they'll be sent packing
• 50:19
  Speaker 10: back to Romania.
• 50:21
  Speaker 7: Romania?
• 50:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 50:23
  Speaker 7: Not even Venezuela. Romania.
• 50:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 50:25
  Speaker 7: Don't hug anybody. That's a moral of the story.
• 50:27
  Speaker 5: Well, it's weird.
• 50:28
  Speaker 7: Don't hug strangers.
• 50:29
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 50:29
  Speaker 10: Someone's coming up to you and saying, thanks for giving
• 50:31
  Speaker 10: me directions. I want to hug you.
• 50:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 50:33
  Speaker 10: I mean, you should already know something else is going on.
• 50:35
  Speaker 7: I hug a lot of people. I hug strangers all
• 50:37
  Speaker 7: the time.
• 50:37
  Speaker 10: Not when they give you directions, though.
• 50:39
  Speaker 7: No, I don't. I don't know.
• 50:40
  Speaker 20: Maybe.
• 50:40
  Speaker 7: I don't know. If I'm appreciative of something, it's possible
• 50:44
  Speaker 7: I could hug somebody. I don't know. I'm a hugger.
• 50:46
  Speaker 10: You are a big hugger.
• 50:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm a big teddy bear.
• 50:49
  Speaker 10: By the way, I'm looking at these pictures. You know,
• 50:51
  Speaker 10: we started this. segment with you talking about the fact
• 50:54
  Speaker 10: that you had gotten together with your old buddies from
• 50:57
  Speaker 10: Poly Prep and I was asking you who looks good
• 51:00
  Speaker 10: and who doesn't look good.
• 51:01
  Speaker 7: Let me name these guys again. Danny Pagliano, Greg Scaglione,
• 51:04
  Speaker 7: John Berens, Don Cameriano, Joe Tacopina, and Sid Rosenberg.
• 51:07
  Speaker 10: So I'm looking at a picture and you actually could
• 51:10
  Speaker 10: rate them if you were bold enough to do so
• 51:12
  Speaker 10: of who looks the best and.
• 51:14
  Speaker 7: Who looks the worst? Well, I look the best.
• 51:17
  Speaker 10: You and Takapita second. There are some people in this
• 51:20
  Speaker 10: picture who might be a distant.
• 51:22
  Speaker 7: All right. Which Larry is coming up next? He's our
• 51:24
  Speaker 7: first guest today. He's coming up at seven. You're hilarious.
• 51:28
  Speaker 7: I'd love to see your friends from high school.
• 51:29
  Speaker 10: They look like they're fit.
• 51:31
  Speaker 8: They're all real.
• 51:31
  Speaker 7: Oh, I'm begging you. It's got to be the bar
• 51:34
  Speaker 7: scene from Star Wars. I know it's got to be.
• 51:36
  Speaker 7: Or in Beetlejuice. Remember the wedding room in Beetlejuice? What
• 51:39
  Speaker 7: a great scene that was. Now we've got Rich Lowry
• 51:41
  Speaker 7: coming up first. He's our first guest of the day.
• 51:43
  Speaker 7: But before it's said and done, this is a tremendous
• 51:46
  Speaker 7: guest list. Bill O'Reilly, he's in the 9 o'clock hour today.
• 51:50
  Speaker 7: That's how good this show is. Danny Danone, who, of course,
• 51:53
  Speaker 7: is our ambassador of Israel here at the United Nations.
• 51:57
  Speaker 7: The amazing college basketball coach, the Hall of Famer. Huge
• 52:00
  Speaker 7: pro-Israel guy. All over Fox News yesterday, Bruce Pearl.
• 52:05
  Speaker 5: And.
• 52:06
  Speaker 7: My guy, Senator from the great state of Texas, Ted Cruz.
• 52:11
  Speaker 22: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 52:14
  Speaker 22: Podcast Network.
• 52:17
  Speaker 7: I forgot what she did last week. Noam, do you
• 52:18
  Speaker 7: remember what she said last week? I was really angry.
• 52:21
  Speaker 7: Really angry. Well, I just don't remember. But it was
• 52:25
  Speaker 7: something about Mom Donnie. She was defending him or, you know,
• 52:29
  Speaker 7: doing something. I don't know. But it looks like. And
• 52:33
  Speaker 7: I'm good like this, right? I kill you when I disagree.
• 52:37
  Speaker 7: Even my friends, Trump, Murano, others. When you do something well,
• 52:42
  Speaker 7: I'm quick to give you credit. Am I not?
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: You are.
• 52:46
  Speaker 7: It looks like Julie Menon did kind of what I
• 52:51
  Speaker 7: did yesterday. Of course, she's more on the Mike Huckabee,
• 52:54
  Speaker 7: Joe Potashnik side. A little classier and not nearly as effective.
• 52:59
  Speaker 7: But I guess she came out and said that doing
• 53:02
  Speaker 7: anything else... But sympathizing with the Jewish community yesterday is
• 53:06
  Speaker 7: not okay. So let's play it. The Speaker of the
• 53:10
  Speaker 7: City Council. Okay, Julie, nice job here. I haven't heard
• 53:12
  Speaker 7: this yet, but I'm assuming it is. This, Lewis, is
• 53:15
  Speaker 7: cut number three.
• 53:18
  Speaker 23: Today should be a day about only one thing. And
• 53:23
  Speaker 23: that is honoring and remembering the 1,200 people who were
• 53:28
  Speaker 23: murdered by Hamas terrorists. That's what October 7th is about.
• 53:32
  Speaker 7: Oh, God.
• 53:33
  Speaker 16: 215 hostages taken, families who are torn.
• 53:50
  Speaker 23: Asunder, and the Jewish community, both in Israel and here
• 53:54
  Speaker 23: in New York City, that has been grieving. This is
• 53:57
  Speaker 23: a very, very difficult day for the Jewish community. And
• 54:01
  Speaker 23: I think to say anything but that is not okay.
• 54:05
  Speaker 5: Say his name.
• 54:07
  Speaker 7: Come on, Julie, baby, say his name.
• 54:10
  Speaker 21: Say it.
• 54:13
  Speaker 7: Excuse him, I'm dying his name, but she's talking to him.
• 54:17
  Speaker 7: All right, it's kind of pathetic that I have to
• 54:18
  Speaker 7: give people credit for saying the obvious, you know? Isn't it, Norm?
• 54:22
  Speaker 7: Kind of pathetic.
• 54:22
  Speaker 10: You would think it would just come out naturally.
• 54:24
  Speaker 7: Oh, I know why I was mad at her a
• 54:25
  Speaker 7: couple of weeks ago. Now I know why. Oh, I
• 54:27
  Speaker 7: was furious. Because right before Bebe spoke at the UN,
• 54:33
  Speaker 7: and I texted her, and I went off on her.
• 54:35
  Speaker 7: She didn't get back to me. She said that Bebe...
• 54:40
  Speaker 7: Because B.B. came to New York, and he said he
• 54:43
  Speaker 7: made a video. Remember the video he made before he
• 54:45
  Speaker 7: came to New York? And he said, I'm going to
• 54:47
  Speaker 7: expose Mom Donnie, blah, blah, blah. And she said, well,
• 54:52
  Speaker 7: that's a bad job by the prime minister. He needs
• 54:55
  Speaker 7: to come here and lower the temperature. You remember that?
• 54:58
  Speaker 7: And I sent her a text. I said, hey, Julie, really?
• 55:01
  Speaker 7: The prime minister? Day after day after day after day,
• 55:06
  Speaker 7: the mayor? calls him a war criminal, wants him arrested,
• 55:10
  Speaker 7: lies about genocide. He did it again even yesterday. And
• 55:15
  Speaker 7: you're telling me that BB needs to lower the temperature?
• 55:19
  Speaker 7: Are you nuts? That was the issue that day, Norman.
• 55:23
  Speaker 7: I was right.
• 55:24
  Speaker 10: Well, she must be happy that you started the segment
• 55:27
  Speaker 10: by saying that you thought she had said something good,
• 55:30
  Speaker 10: but then ended it by reminding everybody of something you
• 55:33
  Speaker 10: didn't like about her.
• 55:34
  Speaker 7: Well, yeah, that's why you can't trust her. I'm being honest.
• 55:37
  Speaker 7: I don't trust her. One day she could be really
• 55:39
  Speaker 7: good and one day not so good. That's why I
• 55:42
  Speaker 7: love Jessica Tish. You know why? She says nothing. I mean,
• 55:46
  Speaker 7: you ever really hear from Jessica Tish?
• 55:47
  Speaker 4: No.
• 55:48
  Speaker 7: All she talks about are the crime numbers being down.
• 55:51
  Speaker 7: That's it.
• 55:51
  Speaker 10: She stays in her lane. Her lane is crime.
• 55:54
  Speaker 7: Crime numbers are down. We're doing great.
• 55:56
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 55:57
  Speaker 7: But you know that Jessica Tisch was horrified. I'll say
• 56:02
  Speaker 7: it for her. Delaney, call me right now if you
• 56:03
  Speaker 7: get upset. I don't care. She was horrified by the
• 56:07
  Speaker 7: mayor's statement yesterday. She's not going to quit. So many
• 56:11
  Speaker 7: people say to me all the time, Sid, why didn't
• 56:13
  Speaker 7: she quit? She doesn't want to quit because she actually
• 56:15
  Speaker 7: loves the job. She loves being police commissioner. She loves it.
• 56:21
  Speaker 7: And she understands that she has a very big responsibility
• 56:26
  Speaker 7: to protect all New Yorkers, not just Jewish New Yorkers,
• 56:31
  Speaker 7: but she takes a special pride in protecting Jewish New Yorkers.
• 56:38
  Speaker 7: And she's never told me this. I swear to you,
• 56:40
  Speaker 7: she's never told me this. But I know in her soul,
• 56:44
  Speaker 7: she has no trust that the mayor will do that.
• 56:48
  Speaker 7: And that's why she stays on. So instead of kicking
• 56:50
  Speaker 7: her ass, you should thank her. For doing that. Sticking
• 56:54
  Speaker 7: around and dealing with this low life to protect New
• 56:58
  Speaker 7: Yorkers and Jewish New Yorkers. But I promise you, she
• 57:02
  Speaker 7: was horrified yesterday. But she didn't say it. Julie Menon
• 57:06
  Speaker 7: talks too much. I guess that's her job. She's a speaker.
• 57:09
  Speaker 7: That's her title. Speaker.
• 57:11
  Speaker 10: It's in the title.
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 57:12
  Speaker 7: But she's too inconsistent for me. So that's my issue.
• 57:15
  Speaker 7: Let me take a quick break when we get back. Again,
• 57:17
  Speaker 7: huge show coming up today. Danny Danone, Bruce Pearl, Bill O'Reilly,
• 57:21
  Speaker 7: Senator Ted Cruz. But coming up first, our leadoff hitter today,
• 57:25
  Speaker 7: he's always great, the editor from the National Review, the
• 57:29
  Speaker 7: brilliant Rich Lowry.
• 57:31
  Speaker 22: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 57:35
  Speaker 22: Podcast Network.
• 57:37
  Speaker 7: And tomorrow, nice weekend, but then, I don't know, I
• 57:40
  Speaker 7: think I saw something, like another one of these, um,
• 57:44
  Speaker 7: We just went through this, like, Nor'easter's coming, I don't know,
• 57:47
  Speaker 7: Sunday night or Monday, and, you know, I was talking
• 57:50
  Speaker 7: to my friends Angelo and others about the Columbus Day
• 57:55
  Speaker 7: Parade on Monday because, again, they're going to honor me
• 58:00
  Speaker 7: with a convertible and the whole thing, you know, I'm
• 58:02
  Speaker 7: part of the procession, even though I'm Jewish, and I'm
• 58:05
  Speaker 7: honored by that. I love the Italian people. But you
• 58:07
  Speaker 7: may remember last year, the parade got canceled. Because of rain.
• 58:13
  Speaker 7: You guys remember that?
• 58:14
  Speaker 8: Yep, remember.
• 58:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so I don't think they want to cancel it
• 58:20
  Speaker 7: two years in a row, but I don't know how
• 58:21
  Speaker 7: you do it. I mean, what I'm seeing is some
• 58:24
  Speaker 7: really heavy rain. Who's going to walk out there? Who's
• 58:27
  Speaker 7: going to sit in a convertible Cadillac, you know, for
• 58:31
  Speaker 7: 25 blocks in heavy rain?
• 58:34
  Speaker 5: Nobody.
• 58:35
  Speaker 7: Is that the weather right now?
• 58:37
  Speaker 10: Well, you know, on Sunday is going to be the
• 58:39
  Speaker 10: worst of it. You're going to have rain most of
• 58:41
  Speaker 10: the day.
• 58:42
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 58:42
  Speaker 10: And right now, but this forecast could change. It's going
• 58:45
  Speaker 10: to be raining in the morning on Monday and then
• 58:47
  Speaker 10: cloudy the rest.
• 58:48
  Speaker 7: Of the afternoon. Oh, so maybe by the time the
• 58:49
  Speaker 7: parade starts, like 11 o'clock, it'll change. They really don't
• 58:52
  Speaker 7: want to cancel it two years in a row. They
• 58:54
  Speaker 7: probably won't. But, you know, I did St. Patrick's Day
• 58:57
  Speaker 7: two years ago in the rain, and that sucked. It
• 58:59
  Speaker 7: was cold. It was rainy. It sucked. So we're going
• 59:03
  Speaker 7: to see which Lowry, editor, National Review, which, um, what
• 59:08
  Speaker 7: can I say?
• 59:09
  Speaker 5: Yes. Good.
• 59:09
  Speaker 7: Dalvi is good.
• 59:10
  Speaker 5: Dash.
• 59:11
  Speaker 7: She may rub all that's the mourner's prayer for your
• 59:15
  Speaker 7: New York.
• 59:15
  Speaker 24: Uh, if you've told me any time over the last
• 59:21
  Speaker 24: three and a half months, we'd be swept in a
• 59:23
  Speaker 24: playoff series because we scored zero, two and three runs.
• 59:26
  Speaker 24: I wouldn't have been surprised. So, uh, My level of
• 59:30
  Speaker 24: disappointment is not quite as low as it might have
• 59:33
  Speaker 24: been otherwise. But that's what we do as the Yankees, Sid.
• 59:37
  Speaker 24: Welcome to be a Yankee fan. We lose in the postseason.
• 59:39
  Speaker 24: That's what we do.
• 59:40
  Speaker 7: At least you get there. I was having this argument
• 59:42
  Speaker 7: at the dinner table last night with my Met band buddies.
• 59:44
  Speaker 7: They're like, you left us. I go, we don't even
• 59:46
  Speaker 7: make the one. We are a Yankee fan now, but
• 59:48
  Speaker 7: you don't even make the playoffs. At least the Yankees
• 59:50
  Speaker 7: get there. But I got to tell you, it's more
• 59:52
  Speaker 7: disappointing when you get there and don't move on. The Yankees,
• 59:55
  Speaker 7: we're going on 18 years now since 2009. And look,
• 59:59
  Speaker 7: you're right. The Yankees struggled offensively all year.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 5: All year.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 7: Had a couple of breakout moments here and there. And
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 7: the injuries didn't help George Stanton Bellinger. But they struggled
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 7: offensively all year. I was not surprised either. I would
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 7: be surprised if that was the case against Houston or
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 7: Cleveland or the White Sox. But not the Rays. But, but,
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 7: if you would have told me the Yankees were going
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 7: to get swept by Tampa Bay, I would have been surprised.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 24: Maybe I would have said we'd go to a game four.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 24: But look, they're a better team. I didn't pay much
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 24: attention to them in the regular season, but they're a
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 24: really good team. And I think the tenor of the
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 24: whole series was set by Trent Grisham dogging it on
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 24: a boop single that the Rays hitter hustled into a double.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 24: I was like, okay, this is what it's going to be. And,
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 24: you know, the Rays had a couple misplays last night,
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 24: but we didn't make them pay. We didn't get the
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 24: big hit. So the problem with this team, you know,
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 24: I was listening to the fan after the game won,
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 24: and someone was like, we need George Steinbrenner back. Well,
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 24: the Yankees sucked for long stretches during George Steinbrenner. Well,
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 24: what you need is just, it's really hard to do.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 24: You need players that can just always do the right thing.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 24: Like Derek Jeter, he had slumps. You know, he had problems.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 24: His range wasn't great at shortstop, especially towards the end.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 24: But he never made a stupid baseball play. I can't
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 24: remember one stupid baseball play. And the Yankees just had
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 24: a lot of guys that just do dumb things in
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 24: clutch moments and When you've got to win a game 2-1,
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 24: which is what we needed to do against the Rays
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 24: basically every single time, it kills you.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 7: You're right, though, about George because, you know, he was
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 7: so angry in 76 when the Yankees got swept by
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 7: the Reds and that's when he went out and got
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 7: Reggie Jackson and, you know, Catfish came and Bucky Dent,
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 7: everybody else. They had a great run. Beat the Dodgers
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 7: in 76. Beat the Dodgers again in 77. Lost to
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 7: the Dodgers in that strike-shortened season in 81. But then again,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 7: they went playoff missing for a while, right? All those
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 7: great years of Don Mattingly, the Yankees won nothing.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 24: All during the 80s, they were misshapen teams. There's one episode,
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 24: I don't know, it was like 85 or 86 or something,
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 24: where Mattingly and a contingent of players screwed up their courage.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 24: They're like, we're going to go see George. And they
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 24: told him, George, we just need one pitcher. This team's
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 24: so good offensively. Just please, go get us one pitcher.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 24: And then like a week later, he trades for Jack Clark.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 7: Didn't make any sense, I know.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 24: They got better because he was suspended.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 5: He was expelled, actually.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 7: That's right. I remember that, yeah. Poor Don Mattingly. Last year, 95,
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 7: the Yankees get to the playoffs. They lose to Seattle.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 7: And then the Yankees bring in Keno from Seattle, say
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 7: bye-bye Donnie, and they win the World Series the very
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 7: next year. So we're going to see. I love Randy Levine.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 7: I really do. I love the Yankee organization. I had
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 7: a blast. Once I dropped the Mets, it was about the...
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 7: I don't know, second or third week of the season
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 7: when Mr. and Mrs. met, hugged Mom Donnie, and that
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 7: was it. I called them anti-Semites. And Randy Levine took
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 7: me in like a parent would take in an adopted child.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 7: I swear to God.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 24: When we look back at the end of the year,
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 24: top ten stories in New York City, that would be
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 24: one of them.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 7: Got to be.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 24: Rosenberg switches to the Yankees.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 7: Seriously, 58 years as a diehard New York Met fan,
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 7: and I spent more time in Randy's box. this summer
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 7: than maybe anybody, because he's such a sweet guy. All right,
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 7: we'll get back to the Yankees next year. Let me
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 7: get to the.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 24: When it starts in June or July.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 7: Right, exactly. Let's get to the mayor yesterday. One day,
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 7: one day, that's all Jewish people ask for, give us... See,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 7: I really want them to say nothing. I got on
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 7: the air yesterday morning and I said, and I knew
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 7: he wasn't going to do that, of course not, just
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 7: like I knew he was not going to not show
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 7: up at 9-11. But my hope was he would just
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 7: not say anything because if he said anything nice about
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 7: the Jews, I knew he'd be disingenuous. Oh, he said
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 7: something all right. And he spent most of his time
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 7: in his statement attacking the Jews and Israel and even
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 7: the United States. I'm not going to lie to you.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 7: Nobody hates this guy more than me. Even I was surprised, Rich.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 24: Yeah so in journalism there's something called the to be
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 24: sure line so that if you're making an argument in
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 24: a piece and you have to make some concession to
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 24: the other side just to cover yourself so you say
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 24: to be sure you know whatever he had a to
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 24: be sure line about the october seventh massacre in his
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 24: october seventh statement he had to say something about hamas
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 24: killing jews so he had one line or whatever was
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 24: in there and then he goes on and smears and
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 24: libels Israel and the rest of it.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 19: It's disgusting.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 7: He also, he went on to smear and libel. And
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 7: this is my frustration with Trump. You know, I love
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 7: Trump so much. I'll see him again. Hopefully at the, uh,
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 7: the state department on Wednesday, he went on to call
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 7: America complicit in the genocide America.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 24: Yeah, of course. But look, this is, this is what
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 24: people who have this worldview, this is what they think.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 24: So you shouldn't be surprised if he actually says it.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 7: No, I guess I was, um, I was surprised. I'm
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 7: not going to lie to you because I thought that
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 7: even he'd be able to control himself for a couple
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 7: of minutes. But he's a bad guy. The bottom line
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 7: is he's a bad guy, you know. So Marco Rubio
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 7: is in Athens, Greece yesterday. John Katsimatidis must have been very,
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 7: very proud because John's my favorite Greek. And he puts
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 7: on this magnificent speech. So I get an invitation, Rich,
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 7: from Marco. He actually texted me at 2.30 this morning saying,
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 7: probably on the flight home from Greece to America, sends
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 7: me an invitation, him and Howard Lutnick are putting on
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 7: a big event for the American, not the Israelis, American
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 7: hostages that were murdered after October the 7th at the
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 7: State Department on Wednesday, okay? And he sends me a
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 7: couple of tweets about his speech. First I want to
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 7: get to his speech, then I want to get to
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 7: the possibility of him running in 2028. That speech in
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 7: Greece yesterday I thought was magnificent. Am I overstating it?
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 24: No, totally magnificent. He's given two or three of these
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 24: really memorable speeches during his time as Secretary of State.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 24: And when he's good, he's really good. But, you know,
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 24: it sounds to me like there's a Sid Rosenberg primary
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 24: going on. You know, you're meeting with J.D., you have
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 24: an invitation from Marco, and you have Ted on this morning.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 24: So everyone knows that the path of nomination runs through
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 24: Sid and friends.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 7: You're kind of joking about that, bud. It's true. All
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 7: three of those things are true. And ever since I
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 7: met Rich with J.D. Vance at the White House, I've
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 7: heard from Marco Rubio exponentially more. You think that's just
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 7: a coincidence because he made a speech in Greece or
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 7: because we got Greenland? Or do you think that whole
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 7: primary discussion is all part of it?
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 24: Yes, I'm not joking right now. I've discounted Marco Rubio
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 24: running entirely. This is the one thing I've heard recently.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 5: I wonder.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 7: You're kidding me. So you've discounted him running, but because
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 7: of Sid Rosenberg, you're one of the biggest, best riders
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 7: in the world. Because of Sid Rosenberg, now you're starting
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 7: to think, which I can tell you he is going
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 7: to run, by the way, that he may run, right?
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 24: Yeah, this is something that you do if you're looking ahead.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 24: I still don't think he's going to run.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 7: Oh, he's going to run. No, no, he's going to run.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 7: Listen to me carefully.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 24: Why do you think that?
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 7: I know that.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 21: Why?
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 5: Someone told you?
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 7: I can't tell you that.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 7: But I promise you, if you write an article tomorrow
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 7: in the National Review that talks about Marco's candidacy, his
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 7: likelihood of beating J.D. Because I think Ted Cruz will
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 7: finish a distant third. And I love Ted Cruz. I
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 7: like him a lot more than J.D. If you write
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 7: that article, I promise you, you won't be disappointed later.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 7: Are you going to write it? All right.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 24: Duly noted.
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 7: You're not going to write it, don't worry.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 24: I'll think about it.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 7: Why don't you think he would run? I'm just curious.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 24: My theory still is that he has the greatest job
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 24: on the planet. He'd have to give it up really
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 24: soon now, really soon. We're talking months, not years, right?
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 24: He'd have to give up kind of the Air Force
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 24: One-type plane he flies around on that he texted you from.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 24: He'd have to give up the red carpet ceremonies when
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 24: he arrives in other countries and give up really important
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 24: work that he really believes in, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, all
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 24: the rest of it, to rent a car in Iowa
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 24: and have a guy drive him around from Pizza Ranch
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 24: restaurant to Pizza Ranch restaurant. in the hopes of toppling
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 24: a guy that maybe Marco knows something we don't, right?
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 24: And it's possible he does. But a guy who's probably
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 24: going to get Trump's explicit or implicit nod in the
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 24: form of J.D. Vance and probably running an uphill campaign
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 24: against him. So just that seems unlikely to me. But,
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 24: you know, if there's some indication that Trump and the
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 24: real inner circle are not enamored of J.D. or Trump
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 24: really wants an open race and he's not going to
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 24: endorse anyone, he's going to kind of sit it out
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 24: and comment. Maybe he does. I still think the odds
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 24: are against it.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 7: Rich Lowry, the editor of the National Review, one of
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 7: the smartest guys you'll ever listen to and read in
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 7: all seriousness. I ask you every week about the midterms,
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 7: and now we're just about there, three weeks away, four
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 7: weeks away. Actually, three-plus weeks for the Israeli election and
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 7: just under four weeks here in America, three weeks from Tuesday.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 7: Doesn't seem to be any real indication. I know Trump
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 7: was in Texas yesterday, and that's how it goes. That race,
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 7: Paxton and Tallarico, he was in Nebraska, he was in Alabama,
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 7: he was in a whole bunch of places. But there
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 7: doesn't seem to be any indication over the last couple
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 7: of days where if you had your mind set one
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 7: way or the other, where something happened to change your mind.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 7: Or am I wrong about that?
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 24: I think you're right about that. The thing is I
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 24: talk to Republican pollsters who are smart, who are responsible people.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 24: They're not lunatics who really think there's a polling era
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 24: out there because it's so hard to get rural voters
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 24: to respond to any poll now. And there doesn't need
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 24: to be a huge polling era to make a difference
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 24: in what this map looks like because the Democrats are
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 24: barely ahead in Iowa, barely ahead in Alaska. So if
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 24: there's even a one- or two-point polling error and the
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 24: Republican overperforms on Election Day, they're going to hold the Senate.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 24: So I don't think losing the Senate is a foregone conclusion,
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 24: but I do think it's definitely in play. And a
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 24: big part of it is Paxton is just such a disaster.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 24: The amount of money they're having to spend for him,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 24: the fact that he's a terrible candidate, the fact that
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 24: he's a sleazebag, the fact that all we hear about
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 24: him is– Private recordings of him complaining and bellyaching about
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 24: other people being responsible for his poor campaign.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 7: Trump! I mean, this son of a bitch goes, Trump
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 7: came to Dallas and now I'm doing worse.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 7: Come on!
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 24: Yeah, and actually at some point I should clue in
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 24: to you. It should occur to you that any private
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 24: meeting with donors, people are recording it. So don't say
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 24: things that are going to be used to embarrass you.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 24: But apparently he can't get his head around that.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: No.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 7: But you still feel more confident that the Republicans will
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 7: retain the Senate than the House. Definitely.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 24: I think it's like a 50, the Senate's a 50-50 shot,
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 24: but Republicans are definitely losing the House.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 7: Stop saying definitely. How do you know definitely? What if
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 7: Michael Petri wins? Would you mean Driscoll or, I don't know,
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 7: what's her name out there, Michelle DeFoya?
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 24: I just think that it's, they can't, you know, they
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 24: can lose three seats or whatever it is. They're going
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 24: to lose more than three seats.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 7: Ay-yi-yi. What a disaster, Rich, no?
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 24: Bad, but look, you know, when we're all celebrating on
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 24: election night 2024, if you'd ask anyone, how are the
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 24: midterms going to go in two years, everyone would have said, badly.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 7: No, no, we understand, right, that the precedent has been
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 7: set that the other side wins, and when the president's
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 7: a Republican or vice versa, the other side wins, but
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 7: when you look at the Democrats... Again, I know I'm biased.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 7: They're complete lunatics. I mean, I don't care if they're DSA.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 7: I don't care if they're moderate. There are no moderates.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 7: There's one guy in Pennsylvania. They're lunatics. They're crazy. They
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 7: don't have one policy where you can go, okay, this
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 7: is good for America. So I know what the precedence is.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 7: I know what the history is. But this is a
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 7: completely different set of Democrats, no?
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 5: No.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 24: Totally agree, but the pattern in these elections is it's
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 24: just a referendum on the party in power, and the
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 24: thing that people don't like is really important to people,
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 24: which is prices. If it's a wipeout, it's going to
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 24: be a prices election. The economy is pretty good. When
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 24: Trump goes out there and says it's a golden age
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 24: and cites all these amazing statistics, lowest poverty rate ever
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 24: in the stock market, whatever it is, He's right. It's
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 24: just the prices are up. They're up at the grocery stores,
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 24: and they're up at the pump. And that really matters
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 24: to people.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 7: It does.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 24: And the polling on that is just catastrophic for Trump
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 24: and Republicans.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 7: I mean, talking to you, I just want to kill myself.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 7: I've got to be honest.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 24: Well, he's still going to be president. He's not going
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 24: to end as president. Some people are like, oh, no,
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 24: Democrats will take him as president. He's over. It's going
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 24: to be a pain. You know, it's bad. It's a
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 24: terrible setup for 2008. But he'll still be president. And
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 24: most of what he's doing is not legislative in nature, right?
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 24: He got the big, beautiful bill, and that's kind of
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 24: all he wanted.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 7: No, no, we need the Save America Act.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 24: Yeah, well, that's not even happening.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 7: Oh, my God. You know, thank God the Yankees won.
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 5: Oops.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 7: Rich Lowry, I swear to God, I love you so much.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 7: You're a lot of fun. Thank you. You're a lot
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 7: of fun. Rich Lowry right there, the editor of the
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 7: National Review, and according to him, the Republicans have no chance.
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 7: We're not going to save America. He's going to get
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 7: impeached every day. It's going to be a complete nightmare.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 22: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 22: Podcast Network.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 7: I've been invited, at least, to join Bruce and President
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 7: Trump in Syracuse. Trump, Blakeman, Rosenberg, and Syracuse. You guys
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 7: know that already. But I don't know, Lou. I'm just,
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 7: I'm tired, man. Now I got to go to D.C.
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 7: on Wednesday. And I got this, got an event tonight.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 7: I'm not even sure I'm going to that. For the
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 7: DEA at Russo's on the Bay. I'm just tired.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 8: You've got too many burdens.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 19: Too much.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 7: I get up at 3 o'clock in the morning, and
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 7: I give the four hours of the amount of energy
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 7: I put in this show. People don't use that energy
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 7: in a month that I use in one day.
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's pretty astounding. I'm actually blown away.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 7: Shut up, Lou. I'm begging you to be quiet. I'm
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 7: begging you.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 8: You're getting texts at 3 a.m.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 10: From Marco Rubio.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 7: It wasn't 3 a.m. It was 2.44. But it was
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 7: the Secretary of State.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 8: See, that's why you're still alerted on it. You're able
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 8: to decipher 3 a.m. for 2.45. It's amazing how you
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 8: can do it on this little sleep. And then you've
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 8: got to go to two events in the next two days.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 7: Should I go to Syracuse tomorrow or not? Why not?
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 8: It's a great area.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 7: It's a horrible place.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 8: Oh, that's right.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 7: Syracuse is terrible. The school is great.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 7: But otherwise, like Binghamton, you know, the school is great.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 7: Get a nice lunch at a cracker. Albany, too. The
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 7: school is fine, but.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 8: Go to that dinosaur barbecue place. Is that still there?
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 7: I don't know. Wherever Trump and Blakeman go.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 8: Well, keep your windows rolled up until you get onto
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 8: Syracuse's campus and then roll them down.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 7: You know, my son is actually applying to Syracuse.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 5: Why?
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 7: They got the best media.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 7: Center of any college. Yeah, I'm sure. I know Fordham
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 7: is great, but Syracuse is number one.
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm sure University of Miami.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 25: Has a fine media department.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 7: Not nearly as good as Syracuse. I'm sure it's good enough. No,
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 7: I wanted to go to Florida. Don't get me wrong.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 7: He's not going to Syracuse. But he is applying. First
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 7: of all. And Bruce Blakeman did write my son a
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 7: beautiful reference, recommendation letter for college. Thank you, Bruce.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 8: Okay, that's all great.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 7: What is.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 11: I need to know what the criteria is for a
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 11: great media school.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 5: Are you kidding me?
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 7: Look at the graduates.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 5: I mean, yeah.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 7: Bob Costas.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 8: But they are good.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 7: Good.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 8: What did Syracuse do for them?
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 7: Whatever Newhouse does, it puts them in positions to get
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 7: great jobs.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 8: Bob Costas, you in the third row, we want you
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 8: to talk like this.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 17: Yeah, you are right in terms of.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 7: Mike Tirico, Marv Albert, Ian Eagle.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 5: Greg Carton.
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 17: The networking is great, yes.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 7: Unbelievable. And then you automatically get a job and you
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 7: go to Newhouse.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 8: And Fordham does.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 7: Fordham's solid. It's not Syracuse, but it's solid.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 8: I'm not saying it's great.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 7: Fordham's got great names.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 5: Of course. Of course.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 7: Vince Scully, Michael Kay.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 8: The guy from CBS News, by the way. What's his face?
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 8: Charles Osgood.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 7: Charles Osgood. That's right. All we're saying is that. Mike Gunselman.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 8: Vince Scully.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 7: I said Vince, yeah. If Gabe is good enough, it
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 7: won't matter. No, he's not going to listen to me. Okay?
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 7: He's going to college where I want him to go
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 7: because I'm old and tired.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 7: And I'm not going to go visit him when it's
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 7: 40 below zero with a bunch of toothless guyum. You
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 7: go watch football games in the dome.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 11: Well, that's exactly what he tells the admissions office when
• 1:17:07
  Speaker 11: he shows up at Florida Lake. Listen, I'm going to
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 11: play for you what my dad wants to say. He's
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 11: not going with a bunch of toothless guyum. He's going
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 11: to this school. And I want him to go, so
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 11: please admit him. Put him in a good class.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 7: That's right.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 8: Put him in a good place to live.
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 7: That's it. I'm looking for an excuse to buy a
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 7: place again in Florida. I sold my house in Boca
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 7: a couple of years ago. I'm looking for any excuse.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 7: Gabriel is a perfect excuse. I need to spend more
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 7: time in Florida. I'm being serious. Last winter here, that
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 7: was it for me. So I plan on spending at
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 7: least a week every month in Florida.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 8: You mean walking down your snow-covered stairways in the house?
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 7: I couldn't even see the stairs.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 11: All of your shirts and jackets with no garment bags
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 11: coming down the stairs.
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 7: With my brand new red velvet jacket to celebrate our
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 7: 10-year anniversary.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 10: Don't worry about it.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 7: 30 inches of snow piled up outside. We'll put you
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 7: up in a hotel.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 10: It'll be fine.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 8: It's going to be great.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 7: Well, the hotel was good. Thank God for John Katzmatidis.
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 7: I'm being serious.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 1:18:04
  Speaker 7: Thank God. It was right around the corner. Thank you, John.
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 21: That was awesome.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 7: And we had a fun dinner. Two dinners. No one
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 7: even paid for dinner one night. Remember that? At the
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 7: beer place around the corner. The pint. How do you
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 7: remember that? Mark the date.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 7: I forgot my appetizers that night. That's right.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 8: Mark the date down. It was such an amazing.
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 7: It was a great time. We got a break here.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 7: Let's get some appetizers, I think.
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 8: By the way, Gene was great that day getting.
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 7: Us in here. He actually drove me and Lou. It
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 7: was a Sunday afternoon. The storm had just started.
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 8: Oh, it was terrible.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 7: It was brutal. You couldn't see two feet in front
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 7: of you on the Bell Parkway. And Gene drove us
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 7: into the city.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 8: Well, getting away from your neighborhood was the first thing.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 7: It was very difficult. It was piled. Piled.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 8: And Sid just leans in. He goes, well, that's it.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 8: We're going back.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 19: Oh, we're not.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 7: We're not even getting off my block. Yeah, guess what?
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 7: Two hours later, me and Lou were having dinner in
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 7: a nice little cozy place, watching the Patriots play the
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 7: Broncos in the NFL playoffs right here in New York City.
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 5: Watch, Gene.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 8: He's going to fall right down the stairs with all
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 8: of his clothes.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 7: I couldn't see the steps.
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 8: That was the silliest thing I feel like.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 7: I know.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 8: What are we doing?
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 7: What are we doing? Seriously. We've got to take a break.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 7: When we get back, he's one of our best politicians.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 7: He's probably running for president. I think he is. He'll
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 7: be right there with J.D. and Marco, the brilliant senator
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 7: out of Texas.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 22: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 22: Podcast Network.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 7: Ted Cruz, I hope, will run for president in 2028.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 7: We'll get to that conversation during this conversation. At the
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 7: very least, he's one of our important Republican senators in
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 7: the country from the great state of Texas where President
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 7: Trump was just yesterday. Here he is back on Sid
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 7: and Friends in the morning. Proud to call him a friend,
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 7: Senator Ted Cruz. Ted, good morning, buddy. How are you?
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 19: Sid, it's great to be with you. Thanks for having
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 19: me on again.
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 7: No, it's great to have you all the time. You
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 7: really do a terrific job in the Senate. And so
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 7: what do you think? You know, yesterday, the president in
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 7: your state, you got that big race, Paxton versus that lunatic.
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 7: Tallarico is a smart guy. He's not stupid. I get that.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 7: But he's got some crazy policies. What are your thoughts
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 7: on Trump and that whole race in your state?
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 19: Well, listen, Trump is on the road nonstop between now
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 19: and Election Day. I'm really grateful. He's been now twice
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 19: in Texas in the last few days. And he's crisscrossing
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 19: the state and helping turn people out. And that is
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 19: hugely helpful. This is an election that is 100% about turnout.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 19: And I got to say, I have never seen a
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 19: midterm race where the stakes are higher than they are
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 19: right now. What we have seen happen in the Democrat
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 19: Party is extreme and it's dangerous. We are witnessing... The
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 19: Green-Red Alliance. We are witnessing a Marxist and Islamist takeover,
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 19: a hostile takeover of the Democrat Party. And look, sadly,
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 19: you guys are right there on the front lines in
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 19: New York with Comrade Mondami. And that poison is spreading
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 19: across the country. And we've got to defeat it. And
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 19: that's what these midterms are all about.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 7: I got to tell you, I was so proud of
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 7: you specifically talking about the Red-Green Alliance in Dallas. I
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 7: was waiting for nights, Ted, watching everybody speak. All Republicans,
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 7: I'm rooting for them. Nobody brought it up. You were
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 7: the first politician to talk about this invasion, this radical
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 7: Islam invasion. And I was clapping. I go, way to go, Ted.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 7: And you mentioned, Mike, yesterday was the three-year commemoration of
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 7: October the 7th. I know how much you appreciate Israel
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 7: and the Jewish people. We love you, okay? This creep,
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 7: this mayor, sends out a statement. Ted, two sentences on Israel. Two.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 7: 80% of the text was sympathizing with the Palestinians. Why
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 7: would you do that on all days? Do it the 8th.
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 7: Do it the 6th. Do it 360 days a year.
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 7: Why on October the 7th unless you can't stand Israel
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 7: and the Jews?
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 19: Well, Sid, as you know, there's an old saying, when
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 19: they tell you who they are, believe them. Mamdami hates Israel.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 19: He is a bigot, and he is an Islamist. His
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 19: statement was disgusting. On October 7th, the worst one-day massacre
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 19: of Jews since the Holocaust And what does his statement say?
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 19: And I'll read it to you. The suffering did not
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 19: begin nor end that day. Instead, it continued through the
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 19: Israeli government's devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 19: has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians, including more than 21,000 children. Now,
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 19: there's a technical word for those words, and that's called
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 19: a lie.
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 7: And he is lying.
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 19: He is repeating Hamas talking points. And he is doing
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 19: so on the anniversary of the murder of over 1,200
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 19: civilians in Israel, the deliberate murder, and the rape of
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 19: women and little girls. And it's repulsive every day. when
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 19: he cheers for the terrorists, but when he does so
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 19: on October 7th, it's all the more repulsive.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 7: I was actually thrown out, physically removed. Very few people
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 7: know this. They remember the gold star father, Ted, because
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 7: he was on TV. I didn't make TV that night,
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 7: but I was thrown out of Joe Biden's very last
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 7: State of the Union because much like Mamdani, he started
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 7: talking about this Hamas health ministry. No, I'm sorry. He
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 7: called it the Palestinian health ministry. Well, the Palestinian health
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 7: ministry gets their numbers from Hamas. So I stood up, Ted,
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 7: and I screamed, says who? Two words, says who? The
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 7: Capitol Police Secret Service, they came storming in. The sergeant,
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 7: the arms, whatever. She contemplated arresting me. They let me go.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 7: Congressman Anthony D'Esposito ought to walk me out of the building.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 7: But I was physically removed from the State of the
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 7: Union for questioning Joe Biden for the same exact thing
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 7: Mamdani did yesterday. And all these Democrats do all the time.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 19: Well, Sid, the good news is that Joe Biden didn't
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 19: know that you were there and he didn't know he
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 19: was there either. So, you know, that's how did we
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 19: go through that chapter? Seriously, how did we last four
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 19: years with a commander in chief who could get.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 21: Lost in a walk in closet?
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 19: I mean, that's just it's dangerous.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 7: And you know what?
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 19: Every one of our enemies knew it. Russia knew it.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 19: China knew it.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 5: Hamas knew it.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 19: And the world got a lot more dangerous because you
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 19: contrast Joe Biden to Donald Trump as a commander in chief.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 19: I'll tell you this. Our enemies are scared of Donald
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 19: Trump and America's safer when our enemies are scared of
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 19: the commander in chief.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 7: 100 percent true. Ted Cruz right here, the amazing senator
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 7: from the state of Texas. So, look, you're right. Trump
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 7: came in and he saved the day. And thank God
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 7: for that. But Ted, it's almost over. You know, he's
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 7: got about two years to go. And a lot of
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 7: us already talking about the 2028 election. I think you
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 7: know this already, but I was invited by J.D. Vance
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 7: to come visit him. I've never met him. I've never
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 7: talked to the guy, Ted. You and I are friends.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 7: I've never met this guy. I went to the White
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 7: House about two weeks ago. I sat with J.D. Vance
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 7: for about 30 minutes. And then I saw Trump and
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 7: the Oval Officer was great. But I wanted to get
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 7: to know all the potential candidates and winners for 2028
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 7: on my side. I know you. I know Marco Rubio.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 7: I love both of you guys, okay? But the truth is,
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 7: you're welcome. When Trump leaves, I need good people to
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 7: take over. You're one of those people. So you've been intimating,
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 7: if not saying directly, you're going to run. You can
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 7: do it again right here. Ted Cruz, you are running
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 7: for president in 2028, yes?
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 5: You know what, Sid?
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 19: There will be plenty of time to focus on that
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 19: after the midterms. I mean, where we are right now,
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 19: we're in the final sprint. We're less than four weeks away.
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 19: And so I am spending every waking moment crisscrossing the country,
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 19: trying to turn people out. Because, listen, the Democrats, they
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 19: want to take the Senate. They want to take the House.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 19: And they want to spend the next two years obstructing everything,
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 19: fighting to return to open borders, fighting to release violent
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 19: criminals onto our street, fighting to push forward their radical
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 19: transgender agenda, boys and girls sports, and sterilizing and mutilating kids.
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 19: And they also want two years of all-out war on
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 19: President Trump. They want to engage in an impeachment circus,
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 19: They want to engage in relentless subpoenas and investigations, and
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 19: they want to block every nomination. They want to block
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 19: every cabinet member. They want to block every federal judge.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 19: That is profoundly dangerous.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 21: And look, the candidates they're running, the two most dangerous candidates.
• 1:27:01
  Speaker 19: In the country are James Tallarico in Texas and Abdul
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 19: Al-Sayed in Michigan. Both of them are absolute radical. And
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 19: when Abdul Al-Sayed says in Michigan he has a, quote,
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 19: obligation to follow Sharia law, he means it. And I'll
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 19: tell you what, when James Tallarico in Texas pledges to, quote,
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 19: dismantle capitalism, he means it. So, listen, 28 matters. It's
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 19: going to matter enormously that we continue the victories that
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 19: President Trump and a Republican Congress has won these two years.
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 19: But as the book of Ecclesiastes says, there is a
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 19: time for every season. And now is the season for
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 19: the midterms. And that's where I'm focused. And I think
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 19: everyone needs to focus.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 7: No, that's fair. We need that. You're right. But, I mean,
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 7: you have had a little bit of back and forth
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 7: with J.D. Vance already. I'm not going to get into
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 7: it today. We'll wait until we're done with the midterms.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 7: But you have. You have. And let's be honest, okay?
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 5: J.D.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 7: Vance's buddy is Tucker Carlson. And Tucker Carlson, last I checked,
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 7: Ted Cruz– This is unbelievable. Tucker Carlson endorsed El Sayed.
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 7: And you and Tucker Carlson have been at each other's throats.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 7: He's a real lowlife, by the way, real lowlife. At
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 7: each other's throats for months. So there is a connection. J.D. Bantz,
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 7: Tucker Carlson. They are on the side of the bad guys.
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 7: I'm not okay with that.
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 19: Look, Tucker Carlson is the most dangerous demagogue in America.
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 19: And he is obsessed. He hates Israel. He hates Jews.
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 19: Every week he does another show attacking Israel and attacking Jews.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 19: He hates Donald Trump. He's called Donald Trump the Antichrist.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 19: He wants him removed from office right now. And look,
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 19: Tucker Carlson actually illustrates the Green-Red Alliance.
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 21: He illustrates how anti-Semitism, hating Israel.
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 19: And hating Jews, it's the gateway drug. to anti-capitalism and anti-Americanism,
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 19: and it leads to Islamism. Tucker Carlson, as you said,
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 19: he actually and officially endorsed Abdul Al-Sayed. He said, we
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 19: want an Islamist. By the way, you know who the
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 19: biggest donor to Abdul Al-Sayed's super PAC is? His father-in-law,
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 19: who helped found a national charity that was an unindicted
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 19: co-conspirator raising money for Hamas and terrorists. This guy is
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 19: a Muslim Brotherhood affiliated radical. And Tucker Carlson said, that's
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 19: what we need. We need Sharia law in America. This
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 19: last week, Tucker Carlson did a show where he argued
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 19: that the world would have been better off if Adolf
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 19: Hitler and the Nazis won World War II.
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 1: The United Kingdom.
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 19: Would have been better off.
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 7: Wait, he actually said that?
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 19: He did. He was interviewing a British politician, and he
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 19: was asking him, well, how is the United Kingdom any
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 19: better off for winning World War II? Would it have
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 19: been better off if Germany won?
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 8: Oh, my God.
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 19: He's lost it. And listen, a lot of elected politicians
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 19: are scared to take on Tucker Carlson, where I'm not
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 19: one of them. The man is spreading poison and he's
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 19: deceiving young people. A lot of young people are suckling
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 19: on this poison. And the only answer to that evil
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 19: is to defeat it.
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 7: Bottom line. Before we get to your new book here,
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 7: Ted Cruz, I do want to bring up the war
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 7: in Iran, because again, with yesterday being October the 7th
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 7: and Having discussions I had the last couple of days
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 7: with President Herzog and going to see Bibi at the UN.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 7: I sat there and watched the whole speech and talked
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 7: to him. It was really magnificent. If you have any
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 7: love for Israel, then you know, of course, that Iran
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 7: was behind all of it. The Hamas invasion, the Houthis,
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 7: the Hezbollah, all of it. And thank God President Trump
• 1:30:53
  Speaker 7: showed the courage. People are all upset about the gas
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 7: prices and, you know, prices are still up. That may
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 7: hurt us. It may come November. That may be the downfall.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 7: I don't know. But how you can argue with what
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 7: President Trump did going after this terror regime, which the
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 7: last six, seven, eight, nine presidents all pretty much said
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 7: they would do and didn't do it. How do you
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 7: argue that, Ted?
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 19: The Islamic regime in Iran has been at war with
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 19: the United States. for 47 years. The Islamic regime in Iran,
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 19: the Ayatollah, when he chants, death to America, I believe him.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 19: Those are not empty words. That regime has murdered nearly 1,000 Americans.
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 19: That regime hired two different squads of hitmen to try
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 19: to murder President Trump. If they could kill They would
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 19: murder every.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 21: One of us.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 19: That's who they are. And President Trump acted to protect America,
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 19: to keep American lives safe. When he began this military
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 19: conflict with Iran, every IRGC terrorist that we have taken out,
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 19: that Israel has taken out, that America has taken out,
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 19: that has made America safer. These lunatics want to murder us.
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 5: And the reason the.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 19: President acted so decisively is if the Ayatollah acquired a
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 19: nuclear weapon, I believe the odds are unacceptably high that
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 19: he would use it. And that he would use it
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 19: perhaps in the skies of Tel Aviv, but perhaps also
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 19: in the skies of New York or Los Angeles. When
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 19: he says death to America, there's a reason the Ayatollah
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 19: calls Israel the little Satan and America the great Satan.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 19: And you and I both lived through the horrors of
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 19: 9-11 and as horrific as the 3,000 people murdered that
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 19: day was, a nuclear weapon in Manhattan could kill millions
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 19: of Americans. And President Trump takes that Deadly seriously. And
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 19: he acted decisively to keep us safe.
• 1:33:14
  Speaker 7: Radical departure from this serious conversation. Best friends with the
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 7: president of the Yankees, Randy Levine. He loves you, by
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 7: the way, Ted. I know you're probably a great guy.
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 7: So he sat there with all you guys, you and
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 7: Tiger Woods and Urban Meyer and Mike Johnson and Marco
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 7: and the president. to try to help fix college sports,
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 7: which is a mess. You got guys going from the
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 7: NFL back to college football. I had a yell at
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 7: Rick Scott last week. I love Rick Scott.
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 1: I love Florida.
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 7: I love Rick Scott. I go, Rick, what are you
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 7: doing voting against that? Well, there's a couple of things
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 7: I don't like. I go, Rick, we got to fix
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 7: college sports. What are your thoughts on that Protect College
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 7: Sports Act?
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 19: Look, it was an incredible victory we had in the Senate,
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 19: a massive bipartisan victory. You and I both love sports.
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 19: Sports are an amazing institution that bring Americans together. And
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 19: in college sports in particular, there's no place on planet Earth,
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 19: no other country has an institution like college sports. Do
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 19: you know at any given time there are about 500,000
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 19: college athletes in America? They don't have that in Europe.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 19: They don't have that in Latin America. They don't have
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 19: that in Asia or Africa. It is only America that
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 19: we have this institution that brings us together, but also
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 19: is this unbelievable avenue for opportunity where over the years,
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 19: millions of young men and women through sports get a
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 19: chance to get a college education, get skills that set
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 19: them up for success in life. And college sports right
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 19: now is in crisis. It is absolute chaos. Every week,
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 19: a different university is canceling women's sports, canceling Olympic sports.
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 19: And if Congress doesn't act, we will see in the
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 19: next several years hundreds of thousands of those roster slots
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 19: and scholarship slots going away. That is a travesty that
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 19: we can't allow to happen. So I was proud to
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 19: author the Protect College Sports Act. It is landmark bipartisan
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 19: legislation to bring order to the chaos. And to preserve
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 19: and protect college sports so, A, we can cheer about it,
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 19: but for the athletes, for the young men and women
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 19: that are fighting for the American dream, we got to
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 19: preserve it. And I'll tell you, the vote on the
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 19: Senate floor, we got 77 senators voted for the Protect
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 19: College Sports Act, a massive bipartisan win. Hell, you can't
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 19: get 77 senators to agree what time of day it is.
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 19: But we came together and got it done. And I'll
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 19: tell you, the House, they're going to come back. They're
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 19: going to pass this bill, and President Trump is going
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 19: to sign it. And I'll tell you, Randy Levine, the
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 19: president of the New York Yankees, every New Yorker ought
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 19: to be proud because.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 5: Randy, I.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 19: Told Randy he is a honey badger. He is relentless.
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 19: I've been talking to him on the phone, and he
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 19: has driven this. He chairs the College Sports Commission that
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 19: President Trump appointed. And he has been relentless. I told
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 19: him at the end of the day, I said, Randy,
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 19: you've been so damn good on this. You're going to
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 19: make me say nice things about the Yankees. And as
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 19: a Houston guy, that's hard to do.
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 7: No, that's funny.
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 19: I am going to tell you a fun story you'll appreciate.
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 19: Back in 2022, when the Strohs were headed to the ALCS,
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 19: and at the time we didn't know if the Yankees
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 19: or Cleveland were going to go to the ALCS. And
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 19: my daughter, Catherine, is 15. She and I have gone
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 19: to almost every single home playoff game for the Astros
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 19: in the past decade, starting from when she was a
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 19: little girl, seven years old. We go to the games together.
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 19: So she calls me and she says, OK, Dad, we're
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 19: going to the ALCS. It's the Yankees in Cleveland. Who
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 19: do we want? And I said, well, the Yankees are better.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 19: So our chances of winning are probably better if Cleveland
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 19: is in it. And Catherine said, forget that dad. If
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 19: we're going to win, I want to beat the best.
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 7: Love her. That's awesome.
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 19: My heart was pounded. I said, I am proud of
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 19: that girl. I didn't tell her that, but I was
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 19: proud of her.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 7: Oh, that was, that's a great answer.
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 5: Seriously.
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 7: I love your daughter. That's what America used to be, right?
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 7: Not everybody gets a trophy. Go out there and beat
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 7: the best. What she said was great. No wonder she's
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 7: Ted Cruz's daughter. So look, If the college sports act passed,
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 7: maybe there is hope yet for the save America.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 5: Yes. Amen.
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 19: And, and, and we are fighting for it. I, I, I,
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 19: Talked with the president about it just yesterday, and I said, look,
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 19: we ought to come back and push through. I hope
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 19: we push through what's called a reconciliation bill after Election Day.
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 19: A reconciliation bill we can do with just 50 votes
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 19: in the Senate. And I am fighting really hard to
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 19: use that tool to get it through. We've got to
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 19: pass the Save America Act, and I'm fighting to make
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 19: that happen.
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 7: Last one, your new book about Justice Thomas, Ted Cruz.
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 7: I'm fascinated by the Supreme Court, all these amazing justices.
• 1:38:13
  Speaker 7: Tell my listeners all about that. It's going to be
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 7: a big time bestseller.
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 19: Well, brand new book. It's called Going Further, The Incomparable
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 19: Clarence Thomas.
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 7: And it is a.
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 19: Biography of an extraordinary human being, an extraordinary Supreme Court justice.
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 19: It tells his personal story. of being born in abject
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 19: poverty in rural Georgia, facing crushing racism and climbing to
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 19: the very pinnacle of American law. It also traces his
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 19: amazing ideological journey. When he was in college and law school,
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 19: He was an angry left-wing radical. He wore camouflage pants
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 19: and combat boots. He had a poster of Malcolm X
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 19: on the wall. He would go to Black Panther rallies.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 19: He participated in a riot in Harvard Square. And he
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 19: went from an angry left-wing radical to being one of
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 19: the most important conservative thinkers in history. And not only that,
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 19: right now today, Clarence Thomas is is the second longest
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 19: serving Supreme Court justice in American history. In less than
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 19: two years, he will become the longest serving justice in
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 19: the history of our great nation. And what I do
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 19: in this book is I take his 35 years of
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 19: jurisprudence and I explain it in a way that is understandable,
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 19: that you don't have to be a lawyer, you don't
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 19: have to be a constitutional law expert, but to understand
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 19: the legacy this man has had. And I'll tell you, Sid,
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 19: I wrote this book Because in this time where we're divided,
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 19: where there's so much anger, we all need role models.
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 19: We need heroes. And I think if you're looking for
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 19: a role model, you could not do better than Clarence Thomas.
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 19: The book made it to number one on the New
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 19: York Times bestseller list. When it came out, it skyrocketed
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 19: to number one. And it's a fun read. It's an
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 19: interesting read. Going further, you can get it on Amazon,
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 19: Barnes & Noble, wherever you get books. And I'd encourage folks,
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 19: buy it, but don't just buy a copy for yourself.
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 19: Buy a copy for your kids or your grandkids because
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 19: this book, it's fun, you will laugh out loud, and
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 19: you will be inspired.
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 7: God, you're amazing, Ted. You know that? You really are.
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 7: You're inspiring. You're a great man yourself. Clarence Thomas is
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 7: a good guy. Don't get me wrong. But you, you
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 7: are a real superstar, Ted Cruz. I mean it. So
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 7: thank you for giving me all this time today. And
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 7: I look forward to wins in the Senate and the
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 7: House in November. And then I look forward to you
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 7: making your announcement. Don't do it on Fox News with Sean.
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 7: Don't do it. Make your announcement that you're running for
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 7: president right here with me, okay?
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 19: You're a great American, Sid. I appreciate you.
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 7: God bless you too, Ted. Thank you so much. Take care.
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 7: God bless. You too. There he is, the amazing senator
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 7: from the state of Texas. What a really terrific guy,
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 7: Ted Cruz.
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 22: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 22: Podcast Network.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 7: Well, my next guest is a guy that not only
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 7: collected nearly 700 wins, 694 wins as one of the
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 7: greatest college basketball coaches of all time. But he's America first, too.
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 7: He loves President Trump. He loves our country. And he
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 7: loves Israel, too. And I've been to Israel with this man.
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 7: In fact, the last two years in a row, he
• 1:41:31
  Speaker 7: spoke in the same exact block at the JNS.org International
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 7: Policy Summit. Same block, which includes people like Mark Levin
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 7: and Bibi Netanyahu. One of the greatest coaches ever and
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 7: best guys ever, my dear friend Bruce Pearl. Coach Pearl,
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 7: how are you, buddy?
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 5: It is great to be with you this morning and
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 5: muzzle tough and congratulations on two weeks. That's going to
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 5: be a great honor. But you know what? Your father
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 5: is very, very happy and he's very, very pleased to
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 5: witness the great prime minister of the state of Israel,
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 5: Bibi Netanyahu, absolutely nailing it.
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 21: And giving the credit where credit's due.
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 5: But you know what? I know you don't do it
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 5: for the credit. I know you do it because you
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 5: believe in this country and you want what's great for
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 5: this country. And you know what's great for this country
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 5: is to be a close and have a strong relationship
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 5: with the state of Israel. And, you know, say when
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 5: I look at different situations, I say, well, let's look
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 5: at them the.
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 21: Other way around. Let's look at them the other way around.
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 21: Let's just say, all right, Israel decided that, you know what?
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 21: It was in their best interest to be an ally
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 21: with Russia or China or Iran. or North Korea. That
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 21: would be devastating to our country. You know, the greatest
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 21: ally we have is one of the.
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 5: Most powerful, innovative, smartest.
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 21: Countries in the world, in the state of Israel.
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 5: Well, we'd be better off if Hamas and Hezbollah and
• 1:42:56
  Speaker 5: the Islamic Jihad and the Muslim Brotherhood were our close
• 1:43:01
  Speaker 5: allies and Israel was our enemy.
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 21: I don't think so.
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 7: No, but when you've got a really stupid public, a
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 7: moronic public that doesn't understand what Israel provides for the
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 7: United States, all they say is, why is my tax-paying
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 7: money going to another country? I thought President Trump was
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 7: America first. Why are we fighting this war in Iran
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 7: because of Bibi and because of Israel, and all my
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 7: taxpayer money going to Israel? Now, look, the truth is,
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 7: when you say that, okay... You're not smart. You're not
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 7: financially smart. You're an anti-Semite. You can talk till your
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 7: face turns blue. Everybody who says stuff like that has
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 7: also said stuff in the past, which is 1,000% anti-Semitic.
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 7: But that's all you hear. What good is an ally?
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 7: I got to spend my taxpayers' money on a nation
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 7: outside the United States that also, mind you, as the
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 7: mayor says every day, is committing genocide? I'm not okay
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 7: with that. Isn't that disgusting, Bruce?
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 21: It is disgusting.
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 5: You know, I remember the great Lindsey Graham when Prime
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 5: Minister Netanyahu was being really sensitive to what our country
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 5: was going through and was recognizing that we were losing
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 5: a public relations battle because $ 3. 8 billion was the number
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 5: that supposedly was being given to Israel. Of course, that's
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 5: not true. 3.4 of the $ 3. 8 billion is reinvested back
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 5: in U.S. manufacturing, U.S. military, U.S. science, U.S. technology, $ 3. 4 billion.
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 5: Lindsey Graham, the day Bibi Netanyahu said that, famously called
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 5: him and said, Bibi, what the hell are you doing?
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 5: What are you doing? Do you realize Boeing is right
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 5: here in my state? I'll be damned if you're going
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 5: to give up that money and stop buying products from Boeing.
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 21: It's just, it is such a, you know, it's such
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 21: a lie.
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 5: We give more money to about 25 different countries in
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 5: the world than the state of Israel.
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 7: And they give us nothing. And by the way, those
• 1:45:02
  Speaker 7: countries give us nothing, Bruce. Those countries give us nothing
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 7: in return. Nothing.
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 5: Nothing. Nothing.
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 21: Well, listen, people want to hide their anti-Semitism. It's not
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 21: that I hate Jews. It's not. It's not that I'm
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 21: jealous of them. It's not that I think they control things.
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 5: They have too much power.
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 21: It's just that I don't like Bibi or anti-Zionist. They
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 21: don't even know what Zionism means.
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 5: Zionism means that the Jews have a right to be
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 5: able to live in their ancestral homeland. The Jews. It's
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 5: like the Chinese have a right to live in China.
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 5: The Japanese have a right to live in Japan. The
• 1:45:36
  Speaker 5: Jews have a right to live in Judea. It's not
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 5: that difficult.
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 7: Well, it is difficult if you also buy the lie
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 7: and spew the lie, regurgitate the lie that it's not
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 7: their land, that it's Palestine. And they force the Palestinians out,
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 7: and they murder the Palestinians every day to ensure that
• 1:45:53
  Speaker 7: that's their land. And mind you, there have been wars
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 7: between the Jews and the Arabs, and the Jews win
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 7: it every single time. And then what happens is a
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 7: bunch of nice Jewish kids are on the way to
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 7: get pizza at Sparrow's, and they blow the bus up.
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 7: or they storm a community on a Shabbat holiday morning
• 1:46:10
  Speaker 7: and wipe out 1,300 people and rape the little girls
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 7: in the streets. So, yeah, there's been violence back and
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 7: forth between Israel and the Arabs for decades. But when
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 7: Israel wins, okay, and it's their land, you got all
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 7: these morons who never go to Israel, Bruce, all these
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 7: people on Staten Island and Brooklyn, all these people, they
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 7: think they know what they're talking about in New Jersey.
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 7: They have no idea what they're talking about, okay? Israel,
• 1:46:36
  Speaker 7: that's our land, yes or no?
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 21: Yes, it is 100% our land. Sid, one of the
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 21: reasons why I take teams to Israel, I've helped take
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 21: my Auburn basketball team, University of Arizona, Kansas State, through
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 21: Athletes for Israel. These kids get off the plane, they
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 21: go to the beaches.
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 5: Of Tel Aviv, and they come to me and they go, Coach,
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 5: these people are darker than we are, right?
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 21: It's unbelievable.
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 5: Or I take them to the streets of Jerusalem, and
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 5: they're like, Coach... It's like one of every three or
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 5: four families, they kind of look like they're Arab. And
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 5: I'm saying, guys, that's because they are. About 25% of
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 5: the population of the state.
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 21: Of Israel is Arab.
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 5: Right. And they're citizens, and they're welcome to live there. Hey, Sid,
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 5: I want to ask your listening audience, who is an
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 5: incredibly educated listening audience, to do me a personal favor,
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 5: all right?
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 21: Why do we call the West Bank the West Bank,
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 21: and why don't we.
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 5: Call it Judea and Samaria? I've got a real short
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 5: story for you. The answer is that in 1948, when
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 5: Israel was established, obviously they went to war. And thank
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 5: God they survived. But you know what they lost? They
• 1:47:42
  Speaker 5: lost a large.
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 21: Portion of East Jerusalem to Jordan.
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 5: Jordan invaded, and we were able to stop them in Jerusalem,
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 5: but they took over all of East Jerusalem. What's in
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 5: East Jerusalem right now? The Western Wall. the Garden of Gethsemane,
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 5: the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. So many of the
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 5: holy sites of the Bible were taken over by Jordan,
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 5: and they owned it from 1948 to 1967. In 1950,
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 5: they renamed that land the West Bank, the West Bank
• 1:48:12
  Speaker 5: of the River Jordan. That's what they renamed it. They
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 5: captured it. They murdered Jews. They burned synagogues. They destroyed tourists. Okay.
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 21: Why do we call it the West Bank?
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 5: When Jesus in the Bible goes to meet the woman
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 5: at the well, he says he had to walk through Samaria,
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 5: not the West Bank.
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 21: So when your listeners and their children pick.
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 5: Up their Bible and they read about Samaria, they're going
• 1:48:39
  Speaker 5: to be confused and not know where it is because
• 1:48:41
  Speaker 5: the world wants to call.
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 21: It the West Bank. And I ask your listeners and
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 21: I ask our friends, call it what Jesus called it.
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 5: That's right. Call it what the Bible calls it over
• 1:48:52
  Speaker 5: 150 times, Judea and Samaria. That's how crazy this entire
• 1:48:56
  Speaker 5: argument is.
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 7: That's a beautiful job right there, Coach Pearl, really. And,
• 1:49:00
  Speaker 7: you know, listen— The Christian people have been great to
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 7: the Jewish people. I look at the work Yael Eckstein
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 7: does and, you know, partners in all of this. But
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 7: when they're not, when I, you know, hear about or
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 7: see or even know Christian people that talk badly about
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 7: Israel and the Jews, I have no patience for them.
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 7: They're idiots. The truth is... Wake up, folks. There would
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 7: be no Christianity without Judaism, okay? Jesus Christ was Jewish.
• 1:49:27
  Speaker 7: The Old Testament was there first. And when you go
• 1:49:30
  Speaker 7: to church, which I've done many times, right here at St. Patrick's,
• 1:49:34
  Speaker 7: I even got answers a couple of years ago, you
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 7: hear about Abraham and all the same names you heard
• 1:49:40
  Speaker 7: about thousands of years before in Judaism. So if you're
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 7: a Christian... and you go out of your way to
• 1:49:46
  Speaker 7: badmouth the Jews, you're a moron. You wouldn't have Christianity
• 1:49:50
  Speaker 7: without Judaism. Is that a fair statement?
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 21: It's a completely fair statement. I'm going to offer a
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 21: little bit more grace, and here's why.
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 5: The enemy... Whether it's the devil or whether it's the
• 1:50:03
  Speaker 5: spiritual enemy or whether it's our enemies like the Muslim blood,
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 5: the Muslim jihad or.
• 1:50:09
  Speaker 21: People that want to destroy us. They can't get us. China, Russia,
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 21: they can't get us yet militarily.
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 5: So what are they trying to do? They're trying to
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 5: destroy us from within.
• 1:50:18
  Speaker 21: They're taking advantage of the freedoms that we have in
• 1:50:20
  Speaker 21: our country, you know, through social media and through higher education,
• 1:50:24
  Speaker 21: all the different ways. And they're educating these younger people
• 1:50:28
  Speaker 21: to believe all the.
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 5: Lies and all the falsehoods. We let millions of Jew
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 5: haters in in illegal immigration, and it's become a factor.
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 5: And so right now, one of the things that we're
• 1:50:42
  Speaker 5: combating is this replacement theology, and that is there are
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 5: some Christians that would like to replace the church with,
• 1:50:50
  Speaker 5: excuse me, to replace Jerusalem and Israel with just the church.
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 5: They want to pick up the story from the time
• 1:50:55
  Speaker 5: they say Jesus rose and resurrected.
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 21: They want to go from there.
• 1:50:59
  Speaker 5: Hey guys, that's what 12 Jewish men, in addition to Jesus,
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 5: 12 Jewish men died horrific deaths, bringing.
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 21: Christianity to the world. These were Jewish men that believed
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 21: in Jesus and spread the gospel. And you know, the
• 1:51:13
  Speaker 21: one thing as a Jew, the one thing I'm kind of.
• 1:51:16
  Speaker 5: Glad about, I'm glad about it. I'm glad that Jesus
• 1:51:20
  Speaker 5: brought our faith and our relationship and connection to God
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 5: to the rest of the world. Isn't it awesome that
• 1:51:27
  Speaker 5: Catholicism can be Catholicism or there can be Christianity or Protestant,
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 5: all these different forms? Without Jesus and his disciples, we
• 1:51:35
  Speaker 5: never may have been able to share the Lord that
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 5: chose us that we know.
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 21: That's right.
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 5: Did it create some hardship for us?
• 1:51:41
  Speaker 21: Did it create some problems for us?
• 1:51:43
  Speaker 5: Did it help create antithesis? Sure it did.
• 1:51:45
  Speaker 21: But you know what? I'm glad my Christian brothers and sisters.
• 1:51:48
  Speaker 5: get to worship and honor and love the very same
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 5: God that you and I do. And I still think
• 1:51:54
  Speaker 5: it's worth the price and the pain that we've got
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 5: to go through so that the rest of the world
• 1:51:58
  Speaker 5: gets an opportunity to share in our God.
• 1:51:59
  Speaker 7: Couldn't agree more. God, you're so good, Bruce Pearl. I mean,
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 7: do you coach? I know you're a coach. I know
• 1:52:05
  Speaker 7: nobody speaks better than coaches. I don't know. You know,
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 7: Marco Rubio was so inspiring in Athens, Greece yesterday, but
• 1:52:11
  Speaker 7: you guys are inspiring with your kids almost every day.
• 1:52:15
  Speaker 7: And look, I know college basketball season is right around
• 1:52:18
  Speaker 7: the corner, so it's a two-part question. Do you miss it?
• 1:52:22
  Speaker 7: You know, I know your son's out there, but do
• 1:52:24
  Speaker 7: you miss going out there and getting practice and talking
• 1:52:27
  Speaker 7: to the team and getting ready for SEC basketball? And
• 1:52:30
  Speaker 7: do you apply a lot of the things you're talking
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 7: about with me today to your speeches to the kids?
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 21: Sid, I would just say this. I'd ask anybody that's listening,
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 21: I ask you. I was in college basketball for 48 years.
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 21: I was a head coach for 30 years. It's a long,
• 1:52:49
  Speaker 21: long time.
• 1:52:51
  Speaker 5: To be great, you've got to be relentless. To be relentless,
• 1:52:54
  Speaker 5: you've got to be all in. And what I began
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 5: to find late in my career is there were some
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 5: things other than just coaching these kids and basketball that
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 5: were more important to me. My love of my country,
• 1:53:06
  Speaker 5: my love of.
• 1:53:06
  Speaker 21: My ancestral Jewish homeland, my love.
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 5: Of my family. And quite honestly, you know, the basketball thing.
• 1:53:13
  Speaker 21: Was aging me.
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 5: You know, coaches age in dog years, 7, 14, 21.
• 1:53:16
  Speaker 5: I mean, you know, and look, Sid, a year later,
• 1:53:20
  Speaker 5: people look at me and go, Coach, you look great.
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 21: You lost a little weight.
• 1:53:24
  Speaker 7: You do look great.
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 5: And I just thought that when I couldn't give my
• 1:53:30
  Speaker 5: guys all of me, 100% of me, I said, you
• 1:53:33
  Speaker 5: know what? It's time to step aside. Dana Altman, the
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 5: great coach at Georgia, just did the same thing yesterday.
• 1:53:38
  Speaker 5: Bo Ryan, before his season in Wisconsin. A lot of coaches,
• 1:53:42
  Speaker 5: you know, will kind of go right up until the moment.
• 1:53:44
  Speaker 5: So if I can do it, I think I can.
• 1:53:45
  Speaker 5: You know what? I can't do this. I've got to
• 1:53:47
  Speaker 5: give it to that next generation. And I'm going to
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 5: do something else. And it's giving me more time out
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 5: to hang out with great friends like you.
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 7: Oh, God, I love you. And boy, did you look
• 1:53:56
  Speaker 7: good the last time I saw you. Your tan was
• 1:53:58
  Speaker 7: actually better than mine. One more for you, Bruce.
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 5: People of color said.
• 1:54:03
  Speaker 7: I know. People of color. We are. You and I are.
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 7: You talked about how other things became very important, and
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 7: you mentioned America first. You are America first. So am I.
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 7: We are America first and Israel second, which every American
• 1:54:14
  Speaker 7: should be. America first, Israel second. But you talked about
• 1:54:18
  Speaker 7: your ancestral homeland, Israel. So it's a very simple question.
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 7: What did you do yesterday to commemorate three years of
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 7: that awful day?
• 1:54:27
  Speaker 5: Well, I talked to Scott Jennings. I talked to Brian Kilmeade.
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 5: You called me, and I missed your message. I was
• 1:54:34
  Speaker 5: going to talk to you.
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 21: You know what I did, Sid? I talked to my kids.
• 1:54:38
  Speaker 21: I called each one of my children. Actually, my daughter
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 21: called me and she asked me how I was doing.
• 1:54:44
  Speaker 21: And then I took up on that and I called
• 1:54:46
  Speaker 21: every single one of my children and I asked them how.
• 1:54:48
  Speaker 5: They were today.
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 7: How many kids do you have?
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 21: I have four.
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 5: Children and five grandchildren, another one on the way.
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 21: And I think.
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 5: The thing that makes them sad more than anything else
• 1:54:59
  Speaker 5: is that when 46 Americans were murdered on this day yesterday,
• 1:55:04
  Speaker 5: Three years ago, 46 Americans were murdered at the hands
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 5: of savages and barbarians.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 21: And the very next day, these kids on college campuses
• 1:55:14
  Speaker 21: are out there supporting.
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 5: The very people that that that that raped.
• 1:55:18
  Speaker 21: Them, that burned them, that tortured them. This makes absolutely
• 1:55:22
  Speaker 21: no sense. And you know what, Sid?
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 19: I'm hopeful.
• 1:55:25
  Speaker 21: Because we got the truth on our side. We got
• 1:55:27
  Speaker 21: God on our side. These morons are going to be exposed.
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 5: New York has got to rid themselves of Mondami. This
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 5: is a very sick, dangerous man. that has got more
• 1:55:39
  Speaker 5: huge hatred in him and his family, how in the
• 1:55:42
  Speaker 5: world can he govern all the great people in the
• 1:55:44
  Speaker 5: state of New York? We've got El-Said in Michigan that's
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 5: got a chance to win that election. I'm calling on
• 1:55:50
  Speaker 5: all the great people in the state of Michigan. Is
• 1:55:53
  Speaker 5: this how you want to be judged? Is this how
• 1:55:55
  Speaker 5: you want to be governed? Do you want to be led?
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 5: I get affordability. I get gas prices. I get the
• 1:56:00
  Speaker 5: grocery store. But what are they going to do? All
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 5: they do is complain about it. But they've got absolutely
• 1:56:06
  Speaker 5: no plan whatsoever.
• 1:56:07
  Speaker 21: To do it.
• 1:56:08
  Speaker 5: And the last thing I'll say about this, I know
• 1:56:10
  Speaker 5: that war in Iran is not popular. War should not
• 1:56:13
  Speaker 5: be popular. But Iran was the number one terrorist threat
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 5: in the Middle East. They were moments away from getting
• 1:56:20
  Speaker 5: a nuclear weapon. then they would have been able to
• 1:56:22
  Speaker 5: wield all kinds of power. Look what they did, closing
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 5: the straits and trying to attack all their neighbors, all
• 1:56:29
  Speaker 5: their Arab friends. Are you kidding me?
• 1:56:31
  Speaker 21: With all those missiles and.
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 5: All that power. And President Trump had the courage to
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 5: knock them down. And he knew it was a political loser.
• 1:56:37
  Speaker 5: And it may actually cost us the midterms. It may.
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 21: But you know what?
• 1:56:43
  Speaker 5: President Trump said this. We've got to make the world safer.
• 1:56:47
  Speaker 5: The safer world is better for America. We're going to
• 1:56:49
  Speaker 5: get through this.
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 21: Gas prices are going to come around. But we've got
• 1:56:53
  Speaker 21: to show up.
• 1:56:54
  Speaker 5: Because Jew hatred, Islamophobia, socialism that doesn't work, and crazy
• 1:57:00
  Speaker 5: cannot lead this country.
• 1:57:02
  Speaker 21: Because it will take us right into the shitter.
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 7: Perfect. Bruce Pearl, perfect. Is there any... Reason to doubt
• 1:57:10
  Speaker 7: why this guy beat Kentucky and Georgia and Tennessee and
• 1:57:13
  Speaker 7: all those great schools when you hear him talk about
• 1:57:15
  Speaker 7: the real important stuff like America and the rest of
• 1:57:18
  Speaker 7: the world. You're just a beautiful guy. And you and
• 1:57:20
  Speaker 7: I become really close. And I'm really happy about that.
• 1:57:24
  Speaker 7: And I'm really happy you stopped by here on October
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 7: 8th to talk about yesterday. Bruce Paul, I love you
• 1:57:28
  Speaker 7: so much. Thank you so much.
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 21: Mark, you're a champion. You're a king of our people.
• 1:57:32
  Speaker 21: Thank you, Sid.
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 7: Look who's talking. Bruce Pearl, thank you so much. 694 wins.
• 1:57:38
  Speaker 7: One of the all-time greatest college basketball coaches of all time,
• 1:57:42
  Speaker 7: my friend Bruce Pearl. Still to come, we'll talk to
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 7: Bill O'Reilly next hour.
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 22: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
• 1:57:50
  Speaker 22: Podcast Network.
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 7: One of the reasons why B.B. and I have gotten
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 7: so much closer is because of Dr. Falk. But I'm
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 7: going to say this at the risk of pissing off
• 1:57:59
  Speaker 7: all those other people. My favorite guy is Danny Danone.
• 1:58:02
  Speaker 7: He doesn't even know that. I see him every now
• 1:58:05
  Speaker 7: and then. He's very, very nice. He's never been on
• 1:58:07
  Speaker 7: this show.
• 1:58:08
  Speaker 12: Never.
• 1:58:09
  Speaker 7: But he's a tough guy. I see him on Fox News. And,
• 1:58:12
  Speaker 7: you know, when he speaks at the U.N., he bashes
• 1:58:14
  Speaker 7: the president of Iran right across the face. I love it.
• 1:58:17
  Speaker 7: He doesn't take any crap. He just doesn't. So I said,
• 1:58:21
  Speaker 7: I said, you got to get Danny on after the
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 7: comments that Mayor Mamdani made yesterday. So here he is.
• 1:58:28
  Speaker 7: This guy's a tough bastard. I love him. The permanent
• 1:58:32
  Speaker 7: representative of Israel to the United Nations, the great Danny Danone. Danny,
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 7: good morning, pal. How are you?
• 1:58:38
  Speaker 5: Hey, good morning, my friend.
• 1:58:39
  Speaker 20: How are you?
• 1:58:40
  Speaker 7: I'm great. Great to have you on this program. First time.
• 1:58:42
  Speaker 7: I've been a fan of yours for a very long time.
• 1:58:45
  Speaker 7: And why, Danny? Because, again, whether it's speaking to the
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 7: president of Iran at the United Nations or speaking about
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 7: other local politicians here in New York, you are fearless,
• 1:58:56
  Speaker 7: my man, Danny. I love that about you.
• 1:58:59
  Speaker 20: You know, we have no choice. We deal with all
• 1:59:01
  Speaker 20: the bad guys at the UN. We have to stand tall,
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 20: stand proud. And that's exactly what we are doing, especially
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 20: now with Mero Amdani spreading lies, hatred, black libels.
• 1:59:12
  Speaker 5: You know, I don't know.
• 1:59:13
  Speaker 20: I think he has other words than Mero, but all
• 1:59:15
  Speaker 20: day long he's putting hate against Israel, against the Jewish community.
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 20: So we have to stand back.
• 1:59:22
  Speaker 7: No, we do. And, you know, listen, I really thought,
• 1:59:24
  Speaker 7: and I hate the guy, I hate his guts. I think,
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 7: you know, Danny, I've been about as loud, if not
• 1:59:28
  Speaker 7: louder than anybody in the city about him. But for
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 7: some reason, I thought yesterday he wasn't going to be
• 1:59:33
  Speaker 7: so bad. He was actually going to find a way
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 7: to lie to people as if he cared about the Jews.
• 1:59:38
  Speaker 7: He couldn't even do that, Danny. His statement was barely
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 7: about Israel. It was all about sympathizing with the Palestinians who,
• 1:59:45
  Speaker 7: by the way, were complicit and helped Hamas on October
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 7: the 7th. Were you surprised or not?
• 1:59:53
  Speaker 20: What he tried to do yesterday is to hijack the
• 1:59:56
  Speaker 20: only day we have to commemorate what happened, to pray
• 2:00:00
  Speaker 20: for the victims, to stand with the families. And he
• 2:00:04
  Speaker 20: tried to hijack it and to make it like another
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 20: day to bash Israel, to spread these blood libels. It
• 2:00:10
  Speaker 20: didn't work for him. You know, we had our ceremonies.
• 2:00:14
  Speaker 20: We respected that day. But, you know, I saw the
• 2:00:16
  Speaker 20: way he was accepted by those radicals. And maybe he
• 2:00:20
  Speaker 20: learned a lesson that you cannot actually appease those radicals.
• 2:00:25
  Speaker 20: You know, whatever you give them, they will ask for more.
• 2:00:28
  Speaker 20: But it was a shameful attempt to actually erase the
• 2:00:33
  Speaker 20: memory of the victims and what happened on October 7th.
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you're right. The pro-Hamas people, the bad people, even
• 2:00:41
  Speaker 7: booed the mayor last night in Union Square. I was
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 7: shocked to see that. So maybe you're right. Maybe neither
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 7: side could stand this guy at this point. But forget
• 2:00:50
  Speaker 7: about him. He's a louse. He's a bad guy. Tell me, Danny,
• 2:00:53
  Speaker 7: what you did yesterday and what you were thinking throughout
• 2:00:57
  Speaker 7: the day as we did commemorate three years of the
• 2:01:00
  Speaker 7: worst day in Israel's history.
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 20: So we had a very important ceremony at the United Nations.
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 20: We brought survivors that told their story. I wanted to
• 2:01:10
  Speaker 20: thank Ambassador Mike Walsh for attending the event.
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 5: And, you know, I was surprised.
• 2:01:15
  Speaker 20: Many diplomats showed up, even countries that are very hostile
• 2:01:19
  Speaker 20: to Israel, like Spain or Ireland, you know, they still
• 2:01:22
  Speaker 20: showed up for this important event. And we send a
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 20: clear message that we are in pain. We have scars,
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 20: but we are not broken. We are standing tall and
• 2:01:32
  Speaker 20: we'll continue to fight. And we show to the world
• 2:01:35
  Speaker 20: the resilience of the Jewish people.
• 2:01:37
  Speaker 7: Are you as proud as I am, Danny, of Israel?
• 2:01:41
  Speaker 7: I was there literally two months after the attacks, January 2024.
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 7: I've been back five times since, and I love that place.
• 2:01:50
  Speaker 7: I really do. But even when I got there right
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 7: after the war started, early 2024, they were still going
• 2:01:58
  Speaker 7: out for dinner, living their lives as if nothing had happened,
• 2:02:01
  Speaker 7: as if there weren't dead bodies all over the street. Now,
• 2:02:04
  Speaker 7: three years later, it's even better. Are you proud of
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 7: how resilient, courageous, and amazing the Israelis are?
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 20: Absolutely.
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 5: I am proud.
• 2:02:15
  Speaker 20: It's part of our heritage. And we know we will
• 2:02:19
  Speaker 20: prevail because we have no other choice. We see the
• 2:02:21
  Speaker 20: barbaric behavior of the terrorists We saw what happened on
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 20: the plane from Dubai to Tel Aviv. So we have
• 2:02:28
  Speaker 20: to stand up and to fight back. And that's exactly
• 2:02:31
  Speaker 20: what we are doing. And we were able to push
• 2:02:33
  Speaker 20: back our enemies in the last three years. And I
• 2:02:37
  Speaker 20: hope that they learned the lesson.
• 2:02:39
  Speaker 7: You know, on the way out, Danny, I was in
• 2:02:41
  Speaker 7: the U.N. that day when Bibi spoke a couple of
• 2:02:43
  Speaker 7: weeks ago. I sat there with my friend Alan Dershowitz,
• 2:02:45
  Speaker 7: and I loved his speech. He was amazing. And you
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 7: just said something he said about five times that day.
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 7: We don't have a choice. We're going to win because
• 2:02:54
  Speaker 7: we don't have a choice. And when BB says that,
• 2:02:58
  Speaker 7: he means that. I don't know if you were there
• 2:03:00
  Speaker 7: in the building that day or not. I'm sure you
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 7: were probably downstairs with him. But how great was that
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 7: speech at the UN a couple of weeks ago?
• 2:03:05
  Speaker 20: It was an amazing speech, a strong speech. You know,
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 20: the Prime Minister came. For six hours, you know, he
• 2:03:12
  Speaker 20: flew in, delivered the speech, and flew back to Israel
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 20: for the holiday, for his campaign. It was an important visit,
• 2:03:20
  Speaker 20: and I think the message was well received, not only
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 20: at the UN, but, you know, all around the world.
• 2:03:26
  Speaker 20: This event was broadcasted, and it was very impactful.
• 2:03:31
  Speaker 7: Last one, Danny, with this mayor in charge of New
• 2:03:33
  Speaker 7: York and anybody who argues whether he hates the Jews
• 2:03:35
  Speaker 7: or not is just stupid. I don't want to hear
• 2:03:37
  Speaker 7: that he's anti-Zionist but not anti-Jew. He hates the Jews.
• 2:03:40
  Speaker 7: He hates us. Every one of us. He hates us.
• 2:03:43
  Speaker 7: He hates you, Danny. He can't stand you. Are we
• 2:03:46
  Speaker 7: going to be okay? Is New York going to make
• 2:03:48
  Speaker 7: it with another three years?
• 2:03:49
  Speaker 5: Absolutely.
• 2:03:51
  Speaker 20: Absolutely. One term, Mayo Mamdani will not uproot the Jewish
• 2:03:57
  Speaker 20: community from New York. It is a strong community. I'm
• 2:04:00
  Speaker 20: sure we will prevail. You know, we're going to have
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 20: to fix a lot. But it happened in the past,
• 2:04:05
  Speaker 20: and I'm sure we'll overcome the damages that we may
• 2:04:08
  Speaker 20: be making in the next few years.
• 2:04:11
  Speaker 7: Danny, keep up the great work, man. I think you're terrific.
• 2:04:13
  Speaker 7: I really do.
• 2:04:14
  Speaker 20: Keep it up.
• 2:04:15
  Speaker 7: God bless you. You too. Danny Danone right there, the
• 2:04:18
  Speaker 7: full-time Israel rep here in the United Nations. And you
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 7: need a tough guy like that because that is a
• 2:04:23
  Speaker 7: very anti-Semitic body. We know that. You know, listen, Chris
• 2:04:28
  Speaker 7: Cuomo's an idiot. I know Bill O'Reilly's coming up. This
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 7: is what he's talking about. I was in the building
• 2:04:32
  Speaker 7: that day. Not everybody left when B.B. spoke. Not even close.
• 2:04:36
  Speaker 7: It was not even close to being empty. But, but...
• 2:04:40
  Speaker 7: From my liking, too many people did leave, okay? And
• 2:04:44
  Speaker 7: I am very confident in saying the UN as a
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 7: whole is a very anti-American, let's start there, America first, anti-American,
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 7: anti-Israel body. So for Danny Danone going to work every day,
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 7: that's an away game every day, Justin. That's an away
• 2:05:03
  Speaker 7: game every day. And it's not a football game on
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 7: the line. Some days it's your life. And this guy
• 2:05:10
  Speaker 7: shows a tremendous amount of fortitude and toughness. Good for you,
• 2:05:15
  Speaker 7: Danny Danone. We'll take a short break. We've got news
• 2:05:17
  Speaker 7: coming up. And guess what? The biggest segment of the week,
• 2:05:20
  Speaker 7: the segment that gets the biggest ratings, any show, any time,
• 2:05:24
  Speaker 7: any day, O'Reilly and Rosenberg, still to come.
• 2:05:28
  Speaker 22: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 22: Podcast Network.
• 2:05:34
  Speaker 7: She's such a nice lady, and his three beautiful kids,
• 2:05:36
  Speaker 7: his youngest daughter, who shares a name with my mother, Naomi.
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 7: And he's got his twins. They're great kids, too. And
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 7: he's also a good friend of William DeMayo, John Batash.
• 2:05:46
  Speaker 7: He helped actually... invest and fund the Gravesend show. So
• 2:05:51
  Speaker 7: he's a terrific guy and a good friend. And we
• 2:05:53
  Speaker 7: love you, Dr.
• 2:05:54
  Speaker 21: John.
• 2:05:54
  Speaker 7: Welcome back to New York City after a nice stint
• 2:05:57
  Speaker 7: in Israel. Look who they were just talking about on
• 2:06:00
  Speaker 7: Fox News. Danny Danone. Did you see that, Justin? No,
• 2:06:03
  Speaker 7: he was just on. Yeah, it was just and they
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 7: were I guess it was his tweet or something. Maybe
• 2:06:07
  Speaker 7: he wasn't on, but they were showing his tweet. They're
• 2:06:11
  Speaker 7: showing all the people that are very upset with Mayor
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 7: Mamdani is basically what's going on with that. So You know,
• 2:06:17
  Speaker 7: after what he said yesterday, everybody's very, very upset, and
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 7: they just keep showing all the tweets. They've got Mike
• 2:06:23
  Speaker 7: Huckabee here. Mike Huckabee, the ambassador to Israel from the
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 7: United States, former governor of the great state of Arkansas.
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 7: He was really pissed at the mayor yesterday. We'll play this.
• 2:06:36
  Speaker 7: This is Mike Huckabee, cut number two, going off on
• 2:06:41
  Speaker 7: the mayor.
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 18: Ambassador Huckabee, let me start with you.
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 3: Your reaction, what do you say to Mayor Mamdani of
• 2:06:51
  Speaker 3: New York in response?
• 2:06:54
  Speaker 26: I am seething over his comments. They're absurd. and they're
• 2:06:59
  Speaker 26: utterly false. There is no genocide going on in Gaza.
• 2:07:02
  Speaker 26: There is no apartheid, and there is no occupation. The
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 26: man knows that what he says is not true. It
• 2:07:09
  Speaker 26: would be the equivalent of on the 25th anniversary of
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 26: 9-11 for him to have gotten up and said, yes,
• 2:07:15
  Speaker 26: it was tragic that those airliners flew into the World
• 2:07:17
  Speaker 26: Trade Center, but America overreacted, and America took on more
• 2:07:22
  Speaker 26: than it should have, and America should be condemned for
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 26: reacting to the slaughter of its people. Israel properly reacted
• 2:07:30
  Speaker 26: to the massacre and the butchering of so many civilians,
• 2:07:34
  Speaker 26: including women who were raped in front of their children,
• 2:07:36
  Speaker 26: babies beheaded, put in ovens, elderly people set fire in
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 26: their wheelchairs in front of their families. And the idea
• 2:07:43
  Speaker 26: that he would take this occasion and somehow blame Israel
• 2:07:48
  Speaker 26: for what has happened in Gaza when they were trying
• 2:07:51
  Speaker 26: to salvage the hostages. 46 Americans were murdered that day, too, Martha.
• 2:07:56
  Speaker 7: 46 Americans, and that brings me to Wednesday. It looks
• 2:08:01
  Speaker 7: like I'm not going to be here on Wednesday because
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 7: I've been invited by Marco Rubio, the Secretary of State.
• 2:08:06
  Speaker 7: And really the guy that's throwing it more than Marco
• 2:08:10
  Speaker 7: is Howard Lutnick, Mr. Commerce, and his lovely wife. And
• 2:08:14
  Speaker 7: they're going to be honoring those 46 Americans that were
• 2:08:17
  Speaker 7: murdered on October the 7th. at the State Department in Washington, D.C.,
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 7: next Wednesday morning. And I got a personal invite from
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 7: the Secretary of State, who was actually texting me on
• 2:08:29
  Speaker 7: his flight back to the United States after his epic,
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 7: and I mean epic, speech in Greece yesterday at about 2.30
• 2:08:37
  Speaker 7: this morning. So we're going to honor those people in D.C.
• 2:08:40
  Speaker 7: coming up. on Wednesday. That was Mike Huckabee on Fox.
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 7: Here's our guy, Alan Dershowitz. He was on Newsmax talking
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 7: about the same thing, Mamdani's October 7th statement. This, Lewis,
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 7: is cut number four.
• 2:08:55
  Speaker 27: Mamdani is a vicious liar, bigot, anti-Semite, and horrible all-around
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 27: human being. He knows that Israel did not commit genocide.
• 2:09:08
  Speaker 27: Furthest thing from it, Israel has the best ratio of
• 2:09:11
  Speaker 27: any country in modern history of reducing civilian casualties in
• 2:09:15
  Speaker 27: relation to combatants.
• 2:09:18
  Speaker 7: He knows that.
• 2:09:20
  Speaker 19: He knows he's lying.
• 2:09:21
  Speaker 27: He knows that the ICC prosecutor who offered the indictment
• 2:09:26
  Speaker 27: of Netanyahu has himself been dismissed and is a rapist.
• 2:09:33
  Speaker 27: And he's in company now with the rapists, the murderers.
• 2:09:39
  Speaker 27: And that's New York. This is the New York I
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 27: grew up in, being headed by a vicious liar like
• 2:09:48
  Speaker 27: Mom Donnie.
• 2:09:49
  Speaker 7: There it is, Alan Dershowitz. That sets us up nicely
• 2:09:52
  Speaker 7: for the man. He's usually here a little earlier on Thursdays,
• 2:09:56
  Speaker 7: but Senator Ted Cruz had to do the show at
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 7: a certain time. So the all-time best ever, Bill O'Reilly, very,
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 7: very unselfish, said, OK, I'll do your show later today,
• 2:10:06
  Speaker 7: which is good for us. We love those 9 o'clock ratings.
• 2:10:08
  Speaker 7: So we'll take... A short break and come back with
• 2:10:11
  Speaker 7: the best ever, our dear friend Bill O'Reilly on a
• 2:10:14
  Speaker 7: Thursday morning. Sid and Friends.
• 2:10:18
  Speaker 1: In the Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
• 2:10:22
  Speaker 7: She is a brilliant young lady. Not smart, brilliant. She's
• 2:10:27
  Speaker 7: running for Attorney General against a Trump-hating hack. That is
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 7: Letitia James, who ran on getting Trump, like Dershowitz wrote.
• 2:10:37
  Speaker 7: And that's all she does, you know. New York is
• 2:10:40
  Speaker 7: still not safe despite these new numbers. She does nothing.
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 7: So Saritha, who's actually put terrorists in prison, she's running.
• 2:10:48
  Speaker 7: And tonight they'll have their one and only debate on
• 2:10:50
  Speaker 7: New York One. It's a shame that Errol Lewis will
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 7: have to moderate that because he's a racist jerk. But
• 2:10:57
  Speaker 7: he's doing it. So last week you had Hernandez versus
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 7: DiNapoli for Comptroller. Tonight you've got Saritha, who I'm endorsing mightily,
• 2:11:06
  Speaker 7: taking on James in that race, A.G., And then on
• 2:11:10
  Speaker 7: Tuesday night, also Errol Lewis and New York 1, you
• 2:11:14
  Speaker 7: get Blakeman and Hochul. Talking about Blakeman, let's go to
• 2:11:17
  Speaker 7: Nassau County. He was the best. He still is the best.
• 2:11:20
  Speaker 7: He'll always be the best, whether it's Thursdays with me
• 2:11:24
  Speaker 7: or Mondays with Katz and Cosby. His morning message, his
• 2:11:27
  Speaker 7: own amazing website. Millions go there. Millions. Every day. BillO'Reilly.com.
• 2:11:32
  Speaker 7: Great stories. Great interview. It's just great television. His books.
• 2:11:37
  Speaker 7: All of them are killing it. Confronting the president one
• 2:11:41
  Speaker 7: couple years ago did great. Confronting evil. Now he's confronting America. Plus,
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 7: he's got a tremendously successful podcast.
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 5: We'll do it live.
• 2:11:49
  Speaker 7: Bill O'Reilly. Bill, good Thursday morning, buddy. How are you?
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 5: I thought it was evening.
• 2:11:57
  Speaker 7: I know. Believe me, I know. How do you think
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 7: I feel? I've been doing this since 6 a.m., but
• 2:12:01
  Speaker 7: I know it's later for you.
• 2:12:02
  Speaker 5: I know how you feel. I was at Yankee Stadium.
• 2:12:04
  Speaker 5: I go, where's Sid? People were chanting, Sid, Sid, Sid.
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 7: You know what?
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 5: If I'd been there, they.
• 2:12:09
  Speaker 7: Would have won. You know, I didn't want to go.
• 2:12:12
  Speaker 7: I never go, ever. Teams I root for, I never
• 2:12:18
  Speaker 7: go to elimination games. I can't stand watching the opposing
• 2:12:22
  Speaker 7: team celebrate on my field.
• 2:12:27
  Speaker 5: Okay, but, you know, you have to root for the
• 2:12:30
  Speaker 5: home team as far as you think you're going to win.
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 5: So you thought the Rays were going to beat them?
• 2:12:35
  Speaker 7: I did. I really thought the Yankees were done. Just done.
• 2:12:38
  Speaker 7: No disrespect to Max Fried or, you know, the Yankees
• 2:12:41
  Speaker 7: can't score.
• 2:12:42
  Speaker 25: No, they don't hit in the clutch. You saw it
• 2:12:46
  Speaker 25: again last night. I thought I was watching the Mets
• 2:12:49
  Speaker 25: there for a little while.
• 2:12:52
  Speaker 7: I did want to ask you, but how was the crowd?
• 2:12:54
  Speaker 7: Was the crowd, at least early on, with a chance
• 2:12:56
  Speaker 7: to stave off elimination? Were they enthusiastic, the regular Bronx?
• 2:13:00
  Speaker 25: I mean, nobody does it better than the New York
• 2:13:04
  Speaker 25: Yankees organization as far as putting out a display. So
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 25: they had everybody on the field. They had the big
• 2:13:13
  Speaker 25: American flag. They had a great rendition of the Star-Spangled
• 2:13:17
  Speaker 25: Banner and America the Beautiful. And the crowd was– I'm
• 2:13:22
  Speaker 25: going to use the word polite. It wasn't rowdy. They
• 2:13:27
  Speaker 25: were having fun up until maybe the sixth inning when
• 2:13:32
  Speaker 25: it became– And, look, that's sports, right? You do the
• 2:13:39
  Speaker 25: best you can do. You know, you need a few
• 2:13:42
  Speaker 25: thumpers in there. The judge needs to come back. I
• 2:13:45
  Speaker 25: don't know if that's possible.
• 2:13:48
  Speaker 5: Big man.
• 2:13:49
  Speaker 25: But, boy, he's going to have to undergo a lot
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 25: of training to get his body back into shape.
• 2:13:55
  Speaker 7: 100%. 100%. So when I was there the last game,
• 2:13:59
  Speaker 7: which was game one of the Red Sox series, you
• 2:14:01
  Speaker 7: had Robert Wall, great actor, baseball guy, Chaz Palminteri, and,
• 2:14:06
  Speaker 7: of course, Randy Levine, the great friend of Randy. So
• 2:14:08
  Speaker 7: anybody else besides you really famous in the box last night?
• 2:14:14
  Speaker 5: Richard Gere?
• 2:14:15
  Speaker 7: No way. For real?
• 2:14:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 2:14:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess.
• 2:14:21
  Speaker 7: By the way, Bill, he hates President Trump with a passion.
• 2:14:27
  Speaker 25: Yeah, so what?
• 2:14:28
  Speaker 5: We're not doing politics. We're doing sports. He's a Yankee fan.
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 5: He brought his son.
• 2:14:34
  Speaker 25: I'm not obsessed with politics.
• 2:14:38
  Speaker 5: He was there. Reggie Jackson was there. Nice.
• 2:14:43
  Speaker 25: And I said to Reggie, you should run out on
• 2:14:45
  Speaker 25: the field in the seventh inning, Mr. October sign, because
• 2:14:49
  Speaker 25: they need a Mr.
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 5: October.
• 2:14:51
  Speaker 7: I like it. I like it.
• 2:14:52
  Speaker 5: You know, I mean, this kid Rice is excellent. He is.
• 2:14:57
  Speaker 25: But I said that would be, imagine if Reggie Jackson
• 2:15:00
  Speaker 25: would run out on the field.
• 2:15:01
  Speaker 7: In the seventh inning.
• 2:15:02
  Speaker 5: It would be great.
• 2:15:03
  Speaker 7: It would be great. Yeah, they don't really have anybody
• 2:15:06
  Speaker 7: else except for Ben Rice these days doing Reggie types
• 2:15:08
  Speaker 7: of things. All right, so you had a good time
• 2:15:10
  Speaker 7: and I'm sure Randy was a great host. He always is.
• 2:15:14
  Speaker 7: And now baseball, you could put to rest. Maybe the
• 2:15:17
  Speaker 7: 3-1 Giants. Shocking, they're 3-1. Everybody's hurt. Maybe they can
• 2:15:20
  Speaker 7: do something special this year.
• 2:15:23
  Speaker 5: No. No.
• 2:15:24
  Speaker 7: Okay. Well, you can't count on your boy John Ledecky's Islanders, Bill.
• 2:15:30
  Speaker 7: I don't know. They're off to a very, very rough start, no?
• 2:15:33
  Speaker 25: Well, you know, they are a team on the rise.
• 2:15:40
  Speaker 25: And the injuries just killed all these franchises. They just
• 2:15:44
  Speaker 25: kill them. I think the New York Giants are very
• 2:15:49
  Speaker 25: well positioned. But if they go, what is it, 9-8
• 2:15:54
  Speaker 25: and play 17 games, that'll be a big victory for them. Because,
• 2:16:00
  Speaker 25: you know, obviously you lose your quarterback and you lose
• 2:16:04
  Speaker 25: a whole bunch of people that you're counting on. But
• 2:16:06
  Speaker 25: these injuries in the sports world are changing everything. They
• 2:16:11
  Speaker 25: just change. Everybody goes down. When I was a kid,
• 2:16:14
  Speaker 25: it was Willie Mays. Mickey Mantle was hurt a lot.
• 2:16:18
  Speaker 25: But Willie was out there every day. And then Warren
• 2:16:21
  Speaker 25: Marichal and then Warren Spahn. And these guys were pitching
• 2:16:24
  Speaker 25: every three days.
• 2:16:25
  Speaker 5: And somehow they stayed on the field. It's the same field.
• 2:16:28
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 2:16:28
  Speaker 7: I know.
• 2:16:29
  Speaker 5: And now you have to set up a mesh tent.
• 2:16:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you do.
• 2:16:33
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 2:16:33
  Speaker 7: It's the same field.
• 2:16:35
  Speaker 5: I know. People are getting hurt walking out to the plate.
• 2:16:38
  Speaker 5: I know. I got a quad.
• 2:16:40
  Speaker 7: I don't know why.
• 2:16:41
  Speaker 5: You were walking 10 feet. Boom.
• 2:16:43
  Speaker 7: He's done.
• 2:16:43
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 2:16:44
  Speaker 7: It's amazing. You know, those games won. Yeah, maybe supplements
• 2:16:48
  Speaker 7: or the weightlifting or who knows what, but Juan Marichal
• 2:16:51
  Speaker 7: would go 16 against Warren Spahn, and they wouldn't take
• 2:16:55
  Speaker 7: either starter out. They both went 16.
• 2:16:57
  Speaker 5: I think Warren is still pitching.
• 2:16:58
  Speaker 7: I think so, too.
• 2:16:59
  Speaker 5: Somewhere. And he's still throwing.
• 2:17:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah, those guys, it was a different era, no question
• 2:17:05
  Speaker 7: about it. They were much tougher. They can make a pitch.
• 2:17:06
  Speaker 5: Even in football.
• 2:17:07
  Speaker 7: Yeah, same thing.
• 2:17:09
  Speaker 5: Even in football.
• 2:17:10
  Speaker 25: I mean, we're going down like you're going down now.
• 2:17:14
  Speaker 5: And that alters the whole season.
• 2:17:16
  Speaker 21: It's true.
• 2:17:17
  Speaker 5: And you know what? I wish that some of these
• 2:17:19
  Speaker 5: politicians would go down instead of the athletes. Okay? Wouldn't
• 2:17:23
  Speaker 5: you love to put a whole bunch of them on
• 2:17:25
  Speaker 5: the disabled list?
• 2:17:26
  Speaker 7: Well, I got to tell you, Bill, I would. In fact,
• 2:17:28
  Speaker 7: I would put just about the whole Democrat Party. I
• 2:17:31
  Speaker 7: know not everybody.
• 2:17:32
  Speaker 4: No, no.
• 2:17:32
  Speaker 7: I would put just about maybe outside of Fetterman. That's it.
• 2:17:35
  Speaker 7: The whole Democrat Party on the Indian Reserve. That would
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 7: be great because they are lunatics. And look, all these messages.
• 2:17:43
  Speaker 7: And now we're getting close. OK, we're not six months out,
• 2:17:45
  Speaker 7: nine months out worrying about Iran, worrying about prices. It's here.
• 2:17:49
  Speaker 7: 20 something days away and it looks like we're in
• 2:17:53
  Speaker 7: for when i say we me republicans we're in for
• 2:17:56
  Speaker 7: a disaster come that election day do you see it
• 2:17:59
  Speaker 7: differently I don't.
• 2:18:01
  Speaker 25: Know, because things are going to change in the Iran situation.
• 2:18:06
  Speaker 25: I was there last week, as you know, talking to
• 2:18:10
  Speaker 25: the president and Secretary of State Rubio about that. And
• 2:18:15
  Speaker 25: this weekend, I wouldn't be surprised if the B-1s go
• 2:18:19
  Speaker 25: right over there and obliterate a whole bunch of Iranian assets.
• 2:18:24
  Speaker 25: I would not be surprised.
• 2:18:26
  Speaker 7: Well, let me stop you for a second. Let me
• 2:18:27
  Speaker 7: stop you for a second. You say you would not
• 2:18:29
  Speaker 7: be surprised. I wouldn't either because we need something big
• 2:18:33
  Speaker 7: before that election day. If you were in charge, if
• 2:18:37
  Speaker 7: you were Trump, would you do that?
• 2:18:40
  Speaker 25: I would take out their airport, number one, all their
• 2:18:44
  Speaker 25: train depots. They only have two or three main highways.
• 2:18:51
  Speaker 25: I would take them out so nobody could move. So
• 2:18:55
  Speaker 25: they don't have any food now, the poor Persian people.
• 2:18:59
  Speaker 25: And now you're taking out their ability to even move around.
• 2:19:05
  Speaker 25: But you can imagine what will happen in the left-wing press.
• 2:19:10
  Speaker 25: Here's the bottom line on this for everybody listening to WABC.
• 2:19:14
  Speaker 25: The Democratic Party at this juncture in history wants America
• 2:19:19
  Speaker 25: to surrender to Iran.
• 2:19:23
  Speaker 5: That's what they want. Why? Okay, you can't dispute it. Why?
• 2:19:30
  Speaker 25: So, because if America surrenders to Iran, the Democratic Party
• 2:19:37
  Speaker 25: can then wail with failed presidency, look at this, look
• 2:19:41
  Speaker 25: at that. Obviously, it'd be a catastrophe for the world
• 2:19:45
  Speaker 25: because Iran would be emboldened and all the jihadists would
• 2:19:48
  Speaker 25: run out and there'd be more terrorism. OK, all over
• 2:19:52
  Speaker 25: the place, not just in the USA. But that's where
• 2:19:55
  Speaker 25: we are. There are a number of Americans who are
• 2:19:58
  Speaker 25: rooting for America to surrender in this conflict.
• 2:20:05
  Speaker 5: And you can see the rhetoric. You don't think Al-Said
• 2:20:08
  Speaker 5: wants us to lose there?
• 2:20:10
  Speaker 7: But wait a second. He's too easy. Al-Said is too easy. OK,
• 2:20:13
  Speaker 7: he wants a real war.
• 2:20:15
  Speaker 5: And Donnie, he's there in New York City.
• 2:20:17
  Speaker 7: Right, but he's also too easy. You're talking about Muslim men.
• 2:20:20
  Speaker 7: I want you to tell me men who are not Muslim,
• 2:20:24
  Speaker 7: men who don't promote Sharia law and radical Islam, that
• 2:20:28
  Speaker 7: are Democrats, that want to see that result. Are you
• 2:20:31
  Speaker 7: telling me that all these other people, Americans, not Muslims,
• 2:20:35
  Speaker 7: they want the same thing?
• 2:20:38
  Speaker 5: Murphy in Connecticut.
• 2:20:39
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 2:20:40
  Speaker 5: There's one.
• 2:20:40
  Speaker 7: I agree. Blumenthal, too. Probably in Connecticut.
• 2:20:43
  Speaker 5: No, Blumenthal will keep it a lower profile.
• 2:20:45
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 2:20:46
  Speaker 5: But Murphy, more than happy. I mean, he can't dispute
• 2:20:50
  Speaker 5: the fact, look, when you hear things like Trump's war,
• 2:20:54
  Speaker 5: illegal war, all this, we got to get out, we
• 2:20:57
  Speaker 5: got to get out, we got to get out. All right.
• 2:21:00
  Speaker 5: They want surrender because that's the only way you get out.
• 2:21:06
  Speaker 5: You surrender.
• 2:21:06
  Speaker 25: And then the United States and Israel... Look like losers.
• 2:21:13
  Speaker 25: That's what they want. Because that would doom Trump's legacy.
• 2:21:17
  Speaker 25: Just like Bush the Younger. Bush the Younger did some
• 2:21:20
  Speaker 25: good things in his eight years.
• 2:21:22
  Speaker 5: Okay? But the fact that Iraq got so far out
• 2:21:26
  Speaker 5: of control destroyed his legacy.
• 2:21:28
  Speaker 7: Destroyed it. Just destroyed it. Now look, when you say
• 2:21:31
  Speaker 7: America and Israel, I need to point this out. I
• 2:21:33
  Speaker 7: know you know this, obviously. But even if America... does
• 2:21:38
  Speaker 7: what you're saying these people want them to do, which
• 2:21:41
  Speaker 7: they don't want to. Trump won't do that. But let's
• 2:21:42
  Speaker 7: say America backs out. That doesn't mean Israel will. In fact,
• 2:21:46
  Speaker 7: I will tell you that Israel will not do whatever
• 2:21:51
  Speaker 7: America does. They will do what they want, and they
• 2:21:54
  Speaker 7: would continue this even if America stopped. I really believe that.
• 2:22:00
  Speaker 5: But it's a different... It's a different....
• 2:22:04
  Speaker 7: Of course. Of course. Right.
• 2:22:06
  Speaker 25: The best account of what happened on October 7th that
• 2:22:11
  Speaker 25: I've seen is in Confronting Evil, the book before Confronting America. OK,
• 2:22:19
  Speaker 25: which was out this time last year. I take you
• 2:22:21
  Speaker 25: right into that town that was devastated by the Hamas
• 2:22:26
  Speaker 25: terrorists right in there. You're there on the ground watching this.
• 2:22:31
  Speaker 25: It was one of the best pieces of writing I've
• 2:22:33
  Speaker 25: ever done because I wanted to get people to feel
• 2:22:38
  Speaker 25: the evil.
• 2:22:39
  Speaker 7: They do.
• 2:22:39
  Speaker 5: Feel it.
• 2:22:40
  Speaker 7: And they do when they read it. They do. Right.
• 2:22:42
  Speaker 25: So when you read that preface right at the top
• 2:22:45
  Speaker 25: of the book, okay, and then you turn around and
• 2:22:48
  Speaker 25: you say that Israel is a sponsor of genocide, when
• 2:22:54
  Speaker 25: Hamas built 500 miles of tunnels— Okay, from the Mediterranean
• 2:23:01
  Speaker 25: all the way.
• 2:23:03
  Speaker 5: East. Well, what are you talking about here? Why would
• 2:23:08
  Speaker 5: any nation, any organization build that much underground if they
• 2:23:15
  Speaker 5: weren't terrorists? Why? Nobody does that. And who funded that? Iran.
• 2:23:23
  Speaker 7: Iran, 100%. See, but what you get with these people is.
• 2:23:26
  Speaker 5: What Israel... And I'm looking at this much more dispassionately
• 2:23:32
  Speaker 5: than you do. Right. Okay? All right.
• 2:23:35
  Speaker 25: So what Israel's obligation is to its own people living
• 2:23:41
  Speaker 25: there is to protect them. That's every government's obligation. Number one,
• 2:23:48
  Speaker 25: it's not to get you lower gas prices. It's not
• 2:23:51
  Speaker 25: to hold your hand when taking you into the Medicaid office.
• 2:23:55
  Speaker 25: It's to protect you. So, of course, Israel is going
• 2:24:00
  Speaker 25: to protect the people living in that nation. So you're right.
• 2:24:06
  Speaker 5: They're not going to stop.
• 2:24:07
  Speaker 7: This is no good. This is no good. You're making
• 2:24:09
  Speaker 7: too much sense, Bill. Stop it. Please stop it. You're
• 2:24:12
  Speaker 7: making too much sense. What they will tell you is
• 2:24:15
  Speaker 7: I'm being serious. What they're going to tell you is water.
• 2:24:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Sid used to have somebody pat his head with
• 2:24:23
  Speaker 5: a little ice thing. Do you still have that?
• 2:24:25
  Speaker 7: I don't have that anymore, but seriously, you're making too
• 2:24:27
  Speaker 7: much sense. What they will tell you is, well, wait
• 2:24:29
  Speaker 7: a second, Bill, Sid, especially Sid, they can defend themselves
• 2:24:35
  Speaker 7: without going out of their way to murder babies and
• 2:24:38
  Speaker 7: innocent Palestinians.
• 2:24:40
  Speaker 5: But they're not murdering.
• 2:24:41
  Speaker 7: Oh, they're not?
• 2:24:42
  Speaker 5: Murdering is an intentional infliction.
• 2:24:45
  Speaker 7: Correct.
• 2:24:46
  Speaker 5: Where you take someone's life.
• 2:24:48
  Speaker 7: Correct.
• 2:24:48
  Speaker 5: This is a war, okay? The war is the terrorists,
• 2:24:55
  Speaker 5: Iran leading the pack, okay, are trying to exterminate the
• 2:25:02
  Speaker 5: Jewish people as did the Third Reich. That's the war
• 2:25:09
  Speaker 5: for you genocide maniacs at Columbia University. It is a war.
• 2:25:15
  Speaker 5: And if the terrorists who are trying to kill the
• 2:25:19
  Speaker 5: Jews are living underground behind hospitals and schools, the only
• 2:25:27
  Speaker 5: way to get them out is by explosives, and you're
• 2:25:31
  Speaker 5: going to have civilian casualties.
• 2:25:34
  Speaker 7: Exactly.
• 2:25:34
  Speaker 5: In every war the United States has ever fought, we've
• 2:25:38
  Speaker 5: had civilian casualties. In any war that's ever been fought,
• 2:25:43
  Speaker 5: on any... territory. That doesn't justify it, but if you
• 2:25:49
  Speaker 5: think Netanyahu's sitting in there going, how many babies and
• 2:25:53
  Speaker 5: women we could kill today, then you need to check
• 2:25:57
  Speaker 5: into a lunatic asylum.
• 2:25:58
  Speaker 7: Okay, well, guess what? That's what the mayor thinks. He
• 2:26:00
  Speaker 7: really thinks that's the case.
• 2:26:03
  Speaker 5: But he thinks that because he wants to advance his
• 2:26:09
  Speaker 5: prejudiced view that Jews are bad. That's where you have
• 2:26:15
  Speaker 5: to start. You have to break it all down. So
• 2:26:18
  Speaker 5: Mamdani's view is Jewish people are bad. So I'm going
• 2:26:24
  Speaker 5: to build a case where people don't like them. That's
• 2:26:29
  Speaker 5: what propaganda is. That's what they do. All right? And
• 2:26:35
  Speaker 5: the Democratic Party doesn't seem to have any problem with it.
• 2:26:39
  Speaker 5: Do they?
• 2:26:40
  Speaker 7: No, and a lot of them are Jews from Chuck Schumer.
• 2:26:43
  Speaker 5: Does Hochul have a problem with that?
• 2:26:46
  Speaker 7: No, she doesn't care. I mean, look, she did come
• 2:26:48
  Speaker 7: out yesterday, and she's like, look, on this day, it
• 2:26:52
  Speaker 7: should only be about this. She actually did go the
• 2:26:54
  Speaker 7: other way. I was surprised to see that.
• 2:26:56
  Speaker 5: No, but it was all canned. It wasn't from the heart.
• 2:27:00
  Speaker 7: No, no, agreed, agreed.
• 2:27:01
  Speaker 25: You know, look, Mamdami dines in a Palestinian restaurant yesterday. OK,
• 2:27:08
  Speaker 25: after he made his usual blathering statement about, you know,
• 2:27:11
  Speaker 25: war is bad and all that. OK, fine. John Lennon returns.
• 2:27:18
  Speaker 25: But Pogo, as the leader of the state, should be
• 2:27:23
  Speaker 25: out there going, we're not going to tolerate this nonsense
• 2:27:28
  Speaker 25: from even from.
• 2:27:29
  Speaker 5: Our own party.
• 2:27:30
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 2:27:31
  Speaker 5: Right. We're not tolerating it. There isn't any genocide. This
• 2:27:36
  Speaker 5: is a war of defense to stop. extermination. And it's
• 2:27:42
  Speaker 5: been that way since 1948. I mean, it's not something
• 2:27:48
  Speaker 5: that just popped up. So these people, number one, don't
• 2:27:53
  Speaker 5: know any history. Number two, can't think about anything linear.
• 2:27:58
  Speaker 5: A leads to B.
• 2:28:00
  Speaker 25: If there's somebody who wants to exterminate you on your block,
• 2:28:05
  Speaker 25: you're damn well going to take some action to save
• 2:28:08
  Speaker 25: your life.
• 2:28:09
  Speaker 5: Are you not?
• 2:28:10
  Speaker 7: That easy. How you just described it, it's really that easy.
• 2:28:13
  Speaker 7: That's it. There's your answer right there. That's it. So
• 2:28:17
  Speaker 7: the president is he was in Texas yesterday that that
• 2:28:21
  Speaker 7: wacky race of both whack jobs. Paxton and Tallarico. I'm
• 2:28:24
  Speaker 7: rooting for Paxton because I'm Republican, but they're both whack jobs.
• 2:28:27
  Speaker 7: I'm not even a huge fan of Mike Rogers, to
• 2:28:28
  Speaker 7: be honest, but he's certainly better than El Said, who's
• 2:28:32
  Speaker 7: really a hater. He's a bad guy, very bad guy.
• 2:28:36
  Speaker 7: But some of these races, I got to tell you, Bill,
• 2:28:39
  Speaker 7: even my own team, I'm like, this is the best
• 2:28:42
  Speaker 7: we can do. You know, and I look at what's
• 2:28:44
  Speaker 7: going to happen in a couple of weeks here. When
• 2:28:47
  Speaker 7: we do lose some of these elections, I'm not going
• 2:28:49
  Speaker 7: to be afraid to say that even though the Democrats
• 2:28:53
  Speaker 7: are lunatics, lunatics, and we should win every race, we
• 2:28:57
  Speaker 7: could have had better candidates. Would that be a fair criticism?
• 2:29:02
  Speaker 25: Well, look, it's, again, the Democrats are going to make
• 2:29:07
  Speaker 25: some gains because that's historically what happens in the midterms.
• 2:29:11
  Speaker 25: The party in power always loses.
• 2:29:15
  Speaker 5: Rogers, by the way, in Michigan, is a decent fellow. Okay?
• 2:29:20
  Speaker 25: He's a former FBI. I mean, the guy's, you know,
• 2:29:23
  Speaker 25: he's got a resume that he should be proud of.
• 2:29:27
  Speaker 5: Paxton, no. Okay.
• 2:29:30
  Speaker 25: Now, the reason Paxton's there is because of Trump. And
• 2:29:34
  Speaker 25: Trump made a mistake there. Because Cornyn, who would have
• 2:29:37
  Speaker 25: beaten Tallarico easily, didn't support the.
• 2:29:44
  Speaker 5: The act that would require I.D.
• 2:29:47
  Speaker 7: To vote. Save America Act, that's right.
• 2:29:49
  Speaker 25: Yeah, okay? So people make mistakes. Trump would admit that.
• 2:29:55
  Speaker 25: I don't talk to him about party politics, by the way,
• 2:29:57
  Speaker 25: because I don't care really about party politics. They don't
• 2:30:01
  Speaker 25: influence what I do. What I do is try to
• 2:30:04
  Speaker 25: explain to my audience worldwide now what the truth is.
• 2:30:11
  Speaker 25: I mean, I'm not interested in advancing propaganda on any
• 2:30:15
  Speaker 25: level at any time for anybody. And that's why we've
• 2:30:19
  Speaker 25: been successful. And the truth is that in Michigan, El-Said
• 2:30:25
  Speaker 25: is a radical jihadist.
• 2:30:28
  Speaker 5: That's who he is. So if you're casting a ballot
• 2:30:31
  Speaker 5: for him, then you are basically saying, that's what I want.
• 2:30:38
  Speaker 5: I want to give power to a radical jihadist.
• 2:30:42
  Speaker 7: What?
• 2:30:43
  Speaker 5: Are you crazy? Did you forget about 9-11? Yeah.
• 2:30:48
  Speaker 7: Oh, they did. Clearly they did.
• 2:30:50
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know.
• 2:30:51
  Speaker 25: You know, look, I know that there are a lot
• 2:30:55
  Speaker 25: of dumb people in this country.
• 2:30:57
  Speaker 5: Okay. I know. Yeah.
• 2:30:58
  Speaker 25: And most of them are watching cable television.
• 2:31:01
  Speaker 7: A lot of them are here in New York.
• 2:31:02
  Speaker 25: If you want to take a survey.
• 2:31:03
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 2:31:03
  Speaker 5: That's where they are.
• 2:31:04
  Speaker 7: That's where they are.
• 2:31:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Okay. I know that. And I don't want to
• 2:31:08
  Speaker 5: come off as super silly as word of the day.
• 2:31:11
  Speaker 5: I don't. I'm a regular guy. You know me. I
• 2:31:15
  Speaker 5: don't strut around. I don't do any of that. No. Okay. Yeah.
• 2:31:19
  Speaker 25: But there comes a point where I have to walk
• 2:31:22
  Speaker 25: away from certain people because they're so stupid.
• 2:31:25
  Speaker 19: Yeah.
• 2:31:27
  Speaker 5: You know, it may be the best-looking woman in the world,
• 2:31:31
  Speaker 5: but if you're that stupid, I have to leave.
• 2:31:34
  Speaker 7: Yep, 100%.
• 2:31:35
  Speaker 5: I have to get an Uber. I have to get
• 2:31:38
  Speaker 5: out of here.
• 2:31:40
  Speaker 7: I hear you.
• 2:31:41
  Speaker 5: I hear you. And it's the schools.
• 2:31:45
  Speaker 7: I know.
• 2:31:45
  Speaker 5: It's the schools. It's Randy Weingarten.
• 2:31:48
  Speaker 7: Yep, Michael Mulgrew.
• 2:31:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, can't we take Randy Weingartner, Letitia James,
• 2:31:54
  Speaker 5: Kathy Hogle, and send them to the Falklands? Is that illegal?
• 2:31:58
  Speaker 7: That would be great. I think we can. And by
• 2:32:01
  Speaker 7: the way, they're all women, so somebody will get mad
• 2:32:03
  Speaker 7: at us for saying that. But I don't care if
• 2:32:05
  Speaker 7: they're men or women. Michael Mogul is a man. He's terrible, too.
• 2:32:08
  Speaker 7: But those three particular women happen to be horrible for
• 2:32:13
  Speaker 7: our city, our state, and our country. I can say it. Horrible.
• 2:32:18
  Speaker 25: People will, as it gets more pronounced, if the Democrats
• 2:32:23
  Speaker 25: do very well in November, okay, then you're going to
• 2:32:27
  Speaker 25: see more horror. This France stuff, with all of these
• 2:32:32
  Speaker 25: riots and all of this, mostly kids, 16, 25, that's
• 2:32:38
  Speaker 25: coming here.
• 2:32:39
  Speaker 7: I believe you. I really think it's true, too.
• 2:32:41
  Speaker 12: I know.
• 2:32:41
  Speaker 5: That's coming here.
• 2:32:42
  Speaker 12: I know.
• 2:32:43
  Speaker 7: I know. You know, you've been on for 16 minutes.
• 2:32:46
  Speaker 7: I hate to do this. It's been so magnificent. You
• 2:32:48
  Speaker 7: don't even feel like 16 minutes, right? You feel like
• 2:32:50
  Speaker 7: it's been five minutes. But I got to run. I
• 2:32:52
  Speaker 7: got to close the show. But as always, Bill O'Reilly,
• 2:32:55
  Speaker 7: an amazing, amazing job. Fantastic. You're the best ever. Thank
• 2:32:58
  Speaker 7: you so much.
• 2:33:00
  Speaker 5: Always fun, dude. Thanks for having me on.
• 2:33:01
  Speaker 7: You're great. You believe that, Dan? I mean, it was
• 2:33:03
  Speaker 7: so good. It was such a fluid, great conversation. I
• 2:33:07
  Speaker 7: looked at the clock and I said, oh, my God,
• 2:33:08
  Speaker 7: we got to go.
• 2:33:09
  Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to Sid and Friends in the Morning.
