• 0:43
  Speaker 1: a living, this kind of stuff, you don't ever talk
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: about it off the year. You don't sit there and
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: discuss politics with a bunch of people that you know
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: are basically just amateurs and you don't care what ybody
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: thinks him. It's fine. I mean, you know, people can
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: I've been at the party or something. Trump is the
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: worst Nightmary. He's a threat to democracy. I can't sleep
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: at night. I just go yeah, me too, and just
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: walk away. Don't don't even argue it, don't even bother
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: with them. I love the New York Yankees, and sometimes
• 1:14

  Speaker 1: the Mets that you hate Trump, You'll ave biding fine,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: don't just don't. Don't even worry about it. But we'll
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: talk to a professional, a real expert, on Monday about
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: what to do about that. At a Thanksgiving dinner. Now
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: here's the latest Trump controversy. These handful of people in
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Congress put out this video telling the troops not to
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: listen to orders if they think they're not legal. If
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: you're in the military, if you're a military person, if
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: you're there and the commander gives you an order, if
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: you don't feel it's legal. This is people in Congress,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: men and women in Congress. Don't follow it. Don't follow
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: any order you think is illegal, and we'll have your back.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: It's a ridiculous video to put out. This is horrible.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: First of all, you're you know, a soldier servant in
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the middle of something. You're not a lawyer. You know
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: you can't actually evaluate correctly is this legal or illegal?
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: And you never tell the troops to disobey orders. It's
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: just absolutely ridiculous. So why would they do such a
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: dumb thing. Well, probably they were trolling Trump. This is
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: the age of a tweeting and trolling and that kind
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: of stuff, So they're probably trying to get into his
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: head or get under his skin or make him overreact,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and he did. He overreacted like crazy. I mean, he
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: should have attacked him, really attacked him for this. But
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: he said, this is treason. This is sedition. Actually, if
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: you tell our military to disobey orders. He's got a
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: point there, it's treeson, it's edition. But he did point
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: out sedition is treason is punishable by death. Okay, well
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: that's the law. But then they're claiming he called for
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: their execution. He told the said they should, we should
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: hang them. He didn't say that, but he what he
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: did was wrong. There was somebody that tweeted that. It
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: said hang them. George Washington would have which is true.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: George Washington would hang you for that. But Trump we
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: retweeted it. You know, if the president United States, you're
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: not supposed to retweet that kind of stuff. So Trump
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: was wrong, shouldn't have done it, went too far, But
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: that's Trump. He's done it before. I can't honestly tell
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: you if he does it deliberately, or if he just
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: gets carried away, or he has this thing about being
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the main story in every news cycle every day. He
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: wants to be the lead story on the news every day.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: He wants to put on any news talk channel, Fox,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: MSN and be the lead story any day. So you're
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: not supposed to do that first role of publicity when
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: you need it. You know, if you're a big star
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: and your new movies coming out, suddenly you're everywhere. You're
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: on every show, you're on every TV show, you're in
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: paper magazine, you're everywhere for two three weeks plugging your
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: new book, your new movie, and then you go away
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: for a couple of months, and then you come back,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: you know, when Taylor Swift needs some publicity. That's all
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: you see is Taylor Swift for a week, and then
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: there'll be a month where you don't. He's supposed to
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: go away for a while. Trump doesn't believe that theory.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: He thinks, do it every day. He's been doing it
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: every day for forty years. So that's one reason he
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: goes over the top with these with these crazy things,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: and they're all over the place, yelling and screaming. There
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: he was calling for their execution. Then you got the
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: quiet to quiet Mike Johnson, who's got to jump into this.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Sometimes he uses head rhetoric. Okay, but do any of
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: you agree that that's appropriate, that they should be telling
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: young members of the military to defy orders. You should
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: think about the implications of that. The President's trying to
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: make a point. I think he made the point. I'm
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: glad you're all covering it. You need to criticize and
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: ask the questions of the Democrats, not the Republicans.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, so listen, he was wrong, but they were
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: wrong too. Everybody was wrong in this. Caroline Levitte had
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: to respond.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: They are literally saying to one point three million active
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: duty service members not to defy the chain of command,
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: not to follow lawful orders, every single refuse an illegal order,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: which because they're suggesting, they're suggesting, Nancy, that the president
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: has given illegal orders, which he has not. Every single
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: order that is given to this United States Military by
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: this Commander in chief and through this command chain of command,
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: through the Secretary of War is lawful.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that these kindless people were absolutely wrong to do this.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Their claim is, well, we only meant if there's an
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: illegal order. Well, nobody's ever seen in illegal order. And
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: here's the real key to this. They've been running around
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: doing TV shows. That's the whole reason they did this,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to give themselves a lot of publicity, and all of
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: a sudden, they're all over TV, and a couple of
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: times on TV they said, well, when you say an
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: illegal order, give us an example of what you were
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: talking about. And they couldn't think of an example. It's
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: never happened. Nobody could point to anything they when asked
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: about it. When they were asked about it, they could
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: not give an answer that question. They couldn't point to
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: any illegal order, So nobody knows exactly what the hell
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: they were talking about. Hey, Jasmine Crockett, this is an
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: absolute bumbling idiot. Is the one that claimed Jeffrey Epstein
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: donated to Lee Zelden. Well, it's not true. It's a
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: different Jeffrey Epstein. It's a doctor in Long Island and
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: at the time of the donation, the real Jeffrey Epstein
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: had been dead for like four years, so obviously he's dead.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: He's not donating. When she was asked about it.
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: I never said that it was that Jeffrey Epstein. My
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: team what they did is they googled. And that is
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: specifically why I said a Jeffrey Epstein. Unlike Republicans, I
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: at least don't go out and just tell lies because
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: it was not the same one. That's fine. But when
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: Lee Zelden had something to say, all he had to
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: say was it was a different jeff Jeffrey Epstein. He
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: admitted that he did receive donations from a Jeffrey Epstein,
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: So at least I wasn't trying to mislead people.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, she's s getting awards now for what is possibly
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the dumbest excuse anybody's ever heard. It was one incredibly
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: stupid excuse. I think this is where she originally said.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: It folks who also took money from somebody named Jeffrey Epstein.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: As I had my team dig in very quickly, met Romney,
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: the NRCC, Lee Zelden, George Bush.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, of course it's a different Jeffrey Epstein. But she
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: was asked about it.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Do you want to correct the record on the people,
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: and I never said that it was that Jeffrey Epstein.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Yes you did. It's an incredibly stupid excuse, absolutely ridiculous. Hey,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: when it comes to exercise, now you think you're supposed
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to be like sweating in the gym. You're supposed to
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: be out there running three miles. You're supposed to be sweating.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: And well, there's all kinds of new studies out now
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: showing that the best exercise what they call zone zero exercise.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: It's more gentle, slower, as long as it's just real exercises,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: as long as you're walking. A lot of people just
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: try walking now instead of running. But if you do
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of walking, you're supposed to do ten thousand steps,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: you try to do fifteen thousand every day. But that
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: kind of stuff, and there's all kinds of new studies,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: scientific studies show that can be just as beneficial and
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: in some ways more beneficial, especially when you get older,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: that the most important exercise is what they call zone zero.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: It's gentle exercise, stretching, walking, light yoga or just like gardening,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. Movement, lots of move you don't
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: have to be sweating, just constant movement. It improves circulation,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: regulates blood sugar, lowers cardiovascular risk, eases stress, supports mental health.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: So you know, go to the gym now that some
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: studies say, well once a week or once a well,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: you've got to go do some real exercise in a gym.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: But most important thing daily is just gentle exercise, whether
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: it's just a lot of walking or stretching, it's very
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: very important. Movement doesn't have to be hard. According to study,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: gentle regular activity still counts and can give you major
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: health benefits. Also, you'll lose weight doing that. You won't
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: have to take that stupid ozempic. There's one side effect
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: after another coming from that ozempic. You know this ozempic
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: face where it just your face looks older, your skin
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: gets droopy. Another problem now dentists reporting ozempic teeth. The
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: side effects of not just ozepic, but all those geo
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: injections can lead to dry mouth. There's an active ingredient
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: that affects the salivary glands that'll give you the dry mouth,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: and that causes all kinds of problems with your gums
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: and your teeth. The medications also cause people to drink
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: less water. They'll be less thirsty, so this increases the
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: risk of cavities, gum disease. You know who loves ozempic.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Of these plastic surgeons because they got to fix the
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: skin that ozempic face and now dentists love it, creating
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: more work for them. Hey, the TV show Boston Blue, well,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: I've been watching it. It's pretty good. It's like I
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: think the fifth episode is on tonight. It's instead of
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Blue Bloods. You know, for fourteen years it was Blue
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Bloods every Friday night at ten. I missed that show.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Love watching the reruns. But it's Boston Blue. It's Danny
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Reagan now in Boston. It's pretty good. It's not Blue Bloods,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: but it's pretty good. I do watch it now every week.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: But in one time, Bridget moynihan made a cameo from
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: the original Blue blood series. What about Tom Selick? Will
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: he do it well? He was asked the question sounds
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: like no. He was pretty blunt, pretty blunt. He seems
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: kind of angry. Selick is not happy that CBS canceled
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Blue Bloods, and he said, I think it's partly my
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: lot in life to make sure Blue Blood's has its
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: place in television history. But I don't think it's my
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: lot in life to keep playing Frank Reagan. He makes
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: it pretty clear he's not interested in doing Boston Blue,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: and he can't explain he's still mad. It was one
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: of CBS's top top shows, one of like the five
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: highest rated shows in television. He can't believe they canceled it,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: he says, I still don't know why CBS did it.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Actually points out if you get rid of football, he
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: was the sixth most popular series and all of television.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know where my next job will be, he said,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: I'd love a good western. I want to sit on
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: a horse again. What does anybody want to do a western?
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: They look terrible and they don't want to see in
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: a western. I love to do another comedy. He's very
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: good in comedy. Remember Friends and Hey, remember he was
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: on Boston Legal for a while. He was pretty good
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: on that show. But why did CBS cancel it? Because
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: nobody watches TV anymore. It's people don't watch network television.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: They're all streaming and all that stuff, but they're not
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: watching ABC, CBS or NBC much anymore. And you can't
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: afford to do these really expensive shows. You know, when
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: you do a game show, it doesn't cost much money.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: You know, you build one set that last year for
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: seven years, just that one set, and you don't have
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to pay the people very much, even the celebrities to
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: come on a game show. It's it's like a late
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: night talk show. You're paying them basically scale. It doesn't
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: cost you anything. You do Blue Bloods or any drama
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: or Law and Order, you're spending a fortune. You got
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: to make a movie every week, you gotta spend millions
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: out in the street card chases. You ever see him
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: film a movie out in the street. It's fifty trucks,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: it's twenty seven trailers, it's one hundred people out there.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: You know what that costs to do that. That's not
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: one scene. You got to do like thirty seven scenes
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: for each show. So it costs a fortune. That's why
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: you don't see Blue Bloods anymore. Boston Blue. It's a
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: cheaper version.
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: All.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: They still got to do those chasings, but they're smaller
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: chase scenes and you don't have to pay a whole cast.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Remember Blue Blood's had like eight stars all getting seven figures.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: This is one star maybe getting seven figures. And that's
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: about it. So today's the meeting, Mom, Donnie and Trump.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: It'll take place at three o'clock today. They'll meet in
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: the Oval Office. It's closed to the press now here's
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: the deal. President Trump knows if they open it to
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: the press and there's video and pictures, it will elevate
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Mom Donnie's in the world. You know, when you're sitting
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: on that yellow couch in the Oval Office talking to
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the President, it gives you a gravitas there you are
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: on the couch where the world leaders sit talking to
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: the President the United States. So those photographs will really
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: really elevate the status of Mam Donni. So it's closed
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: to the press. However, at the end of the meeting,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: the President can decide depending on how it goes, he
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: can decide to bring the press in to take those
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: pictures or do that video. They can even go live
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: on TV. So at the end of the meeting, depending
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: on what happens, the President will decide if he wants
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: to bring them in, and it will it will make
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Mam Donnie look important. Now, the other thing you got
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: to watch for is who else is in the room,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Mam Donnie. And the President always tells you when you
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: come to me, when he invites you to a meeting,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: he'll say, bring whoever you want. Says that very often,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: so Mam Donnie can bring his team. But h if
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: he looks to the you know, he'll be on this couch.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: If he looks over at the other couch and it's
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: jd Vance and Steven Miller and Tom Holman. I don't
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: think Mom done will like that. So I don't know
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: what's going to happen, but we'll find out. At three
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: o'clock today, we'll take some calls. Next eight hundred three
• 15:16

  Speaker 5: that these these Democrats would tell people to disregard orders.
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: I mean, it is phenomenal. These people have become the
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: enemy of the United States. I think they've they've gone
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: to have their ever loving minds.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: I think, yeah, they've just gone it's Trump arrangement syndrome.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: They've literally gone absolutely all right, Stuart, thanks for Colin.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Mike and Florida. Mike, how you doing,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Mark.
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: Regard regarding that same subject, I think there's another motive
• 16:47
  Speaker 7: that you can add to why Trump responds the way
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: that he does, and he's because he's noticed for years
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: that Republicans, as they're getting bludgeoned by the Democrats and
• 16:57
  Speaker 7: the press and the mass media and getting their you know,
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: you know what kicked out of them, they never responded
• 17:03
  Speaker 7: in kind. They were always always very polite and genteel
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: and gentlemanly and we'll just stick to the you know facts.
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: And it got them nowhere.
• 17:11
  Speaker 7: And I think he sees that you have to fight
• 17:13
  Speaker 7: firewood fire, because if you don't respond, all it gets
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: you is Rachel Maddow shows up at your funeral when
• 17:19
  Speaker 7: you're dead, and that's it.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: That's good, good way to put it. Thanks for calling.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Dave in Chicago. Dave, how you doing.
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: Good morning, Mark. I'm doing very well, Thank you, Mark.
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: As we know recently in.
• 17:31
  Speaker 8: The news that Joe Biden took a ride on an
• 17:34
  Speaker 8: Amtrak train with a reporter, my question is did the
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: Secret Service screen all of the passengers before the trip?
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: And finally, how much of Biden's family still receive Secret
• 17:46
  Speaker 8: Service protection?
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Well, you see the wife, the kids. It's a good question. Yeah,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: he was on a friend Brooks Singman, the great reporter
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Fox News, was riding the Amtrak going down to Washington,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: and there was Joe Biden. He just gets a ticket,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: goes to her seat, and who's the guy next to her,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden. It's kind of sad. This guy's a former president.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: And normally when you're a former president, you got lots
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: of wealthy friends who want to take care of everything
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: for you. Here's to borrow my plane whenever you want,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: use my how everybody's given you everything when you're a
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: former president. But not Biden, Not Joe Biden. Got no
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: use for him. He's been seeing flying coach on an
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: airplane's he's been seeing. Take a look at the Brook
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Singman's instagram. There there she is sitting next to Joe
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Biden on the Amtrak. It's a sad, sad case. Let's
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: go to Bob and New Rochelle. Bob, how you doing.
• 18:37
  Speaker 9: I'm good and well, I'm good. Hey, looks, I got
• 18:38
  Speaker 9: a question for you. You talk about Blue Bloods a lot
• 18:40
  Speaker 9: and how these sh disappeared because it's so expensive to
• 18:43
  Speaker 9: make those scenes. Do you think at some point AI
• 18:46
  Speaker 9: or place all that and they'll be on it that way?
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: That's an interesting question. Yeah, you could do it with AI.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: You could have these guys just in the studio with
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: a green screen and then Ai'll put in all the
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: car chase and all that. Yeah, you could do that,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: But then you got all these Hollywood unions. You're gonna
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: have to battle, and that's a big fight. That's the
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: reason it's so expensive to do all these shows. That's
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: why some of these shows go up and do it
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: in Toronto. In fact, I think some of that Boston Blue,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: most of that's done in Toronto. It's a lot cheaper
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: up there less union costs. Let's go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: how you doing. Good morning, Mark, Good morning Mara. Opposite
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: to what Stewart said about the patriot who talked about
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan and that they hung that
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: guy out to dry. The only real unconstitutional order I
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: could think of what the military was. And you'll remember this,
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: when that sergeant ordered the Meli massacre Jordan, the Vietnam
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: War and there the sergeant I forget what his name,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: and he was prosecuted for that. Remember that the meal
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: I met when he mowed down all those peasants, he
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: ordered his troops to do that.
• 19:56
  Speaker 10: Mark. Everyone knows Katy Hulkle doesn't have spine and isn't
• 20:02
  Speaker 10: the brightest light bulb in the box. The other night,
• 20:06
  Speaker 10: try to make a case for Zora Mundani's universal daycare
• 20:13
  Speaker 10: and for her raising the corporate tax on the corporations
• 20:18
  Speaker 10: and everything. She's scouted all the jobs, mainly city union jobs.
• 20:26
  Speaker 10: Just where first off, where they're gonna put these daycare centers.
• 20:30
  Speaker 10: A lot of these private daycare centers a dumpson. They're
• 20:33
  Speaker 10: just ripe with fraud. And another thing, didn't miss bright
• 20:39
  Speaker 10: over there. Take into account all the corporations that Oh
• 20:44
  Speaker 10: are already moving down to Florida and Texas, Dad are
• 20:48
  Speaker 10: gonna move out of New York, and you're gonna lose
• 20:50
  Speaker 10: that revenue. She's talking about the revenue gained. What about
• 20:54
  Speaker 10: the revenue lost?
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're talking about high level management. This is
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: not her game. Her game is politics campaigning. Same thing
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: with Mom Donnie. They've never known these two have never
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: managed anything. They've never been managers. It's just what sounds
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: good in the campaign, what's the what campaign promise sounds right? Executing?
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Managing It's not their field. But the Vincent could point. Hey,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: when we come back. Steve Cuzo, the great New York
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Post reporter, nobody better on restaurants, on real estate on
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: New York. We'll see what he says about the coming
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Mom Donnie situation for business. We'll get to all of
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: that next on seven to ten. Wor Mark Simone.
• 21:35
  Speaker 11: Wr Well.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Steve Cuzel, the great New York Post column this nobody
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: better on restaurants, the real estate on New York. Stuff
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: is columns. You can read them all. They're in the
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: New York Post website. Steve Cuzoh, how you doing.
• 21:50
  Speaker 11: I'm great, Mark, Thanks, It's hard to live up to
• 21:52
  Speaker 11: that doing. I'll try them, you'll do it, you'll hey, Yeah,
• 21:56
  Speaker 11: you're just back from London. Yeah Instagram great pictures. But
• 22:01
  Speaker 11: were there any English speaking people left in London?
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: Well that's the thing I tell friends who haven't been
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: to London a long time, I say, I tell them
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: English is widely spoken. Now that's supposed to be a joke,
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: because it is, after all, London. It's England, you know.
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: So yes, English is still widely spoken, but not universally. No,
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: like New York. What was it?
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: But all the great old London places they're not. They've
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: been overtaken by all kinds of new places. What's good
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: over there?
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: Well, so what's new? Oh? So many great restaurants. But
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: the most interesting single thing, in my view is the
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: former American Embassy in Grove most Rare, which had been
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: there for I don't know. That was our embassy there
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: for a million years. The embassy moved away about ten
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: years ago to a new location. The building was a giant,
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: brutalless style kind of a hulking building. It was never
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: well loved, and but that Katari Fune bought it and
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: converted the whole property God knows how much it might
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: must have cost into a spectacular new Rosewood managed hotel.
• 23:15
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: You know, Rosewood is one of the premier hotel companies
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: in the world New York and I mean they operate
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: the Carlisle and it's called the Chancery. That's the end
• 23:27
  Speaker 6: of the new hotel. And when you go into the building,
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: you can't believe that this was once this miserable, you
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: know interior where people would line up for, you know,
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: to get their passports renewed. They created a they carved
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: out an atrium. It's it's all soft and warm, unlike
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: the you know, the kind of still brooding exterior. The
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: interior is all warmth and light. And they have five restaurants,
• 23:52
  Speaker 6: including a Carbone from New York. I didn't eat there,
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: but we did eat at a wonderful Mediterranean restaurant in
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: the hotel called Sarah. And they have a rooftop lounge
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: called the Eagle or the Eagle because it's got the
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: giant gold eagle that was there during the years that
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: the building was the Embassy. And apparently this giant eagle
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: is made out of the fifty two parts and it's
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: a lounge and it's like it's a rooftop lounge like
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: the ones that we have that so many are in
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: New York and all together it's a must see for
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: people in visiting London who haven't been there for a
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: couple of years. The hotel opened only a few months ago.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's chancery. Hey, you know, it's fascinating. The rooftop
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: of every office building was the water tower, the AC system,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: what they call the mechanicals. It wasn't untill like two
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: thousand and two that anybody figured out put the restaurant
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: on the rooftop, put the bar on the rooftop, and.
• 24:53
  Speaker 6: Put the bars up there. It's incredible. New York City
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: and Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn and even a few
• 24:58
  Speaker 6: parts of Queens and Washing have rooftop this in that
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: just a space that previously was used for nothing mechanical
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: uses or whatever. And one of the first transformations my
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: late friend Steve the Greenberg created I think it's two
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: thirty fifth Avenue and I think it was called two
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: thirty fifth rooftop. And since then there are a gazillion
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: of them. And I was amused in London because our
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: British friends there were absolutely flabbergasted at the views from
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: the roof of the you know, the Eagle on top
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: of the Chancery Hotel, and it's a nice view, but
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: nothing compared to the ones we have in New York.
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: There's one hotel I don't remember the name of it.
• 25:45
  Speaker 6: It's the Canal Street and the Bowery that has a
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: rooftop lounge that is simply not to be believed, facing
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: both Brooklyn and Manhattan. Nothing like it in the world.
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: So it's all good time stuff.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Yes, So we're talking about this. Yesterday Masa, the Japanese
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: restaurant Time Warner Center, nine hundred dollars a person got
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: wiped out more than that, more than that twelve hundred
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: with tax and tips and all that.
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: Usually per head, yeah, not per couple, but per head.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: So there's another one now like seven fifty ahead.
• 26:22
  Speaker 9: Michelin Story Sushiz or something.
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: So what's happened is that Masa had three Michelin stars
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: since it opened in two thousand and nine when the
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: building was known as Time Warner Center. Now it's Deutsche
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: Bank Center and Masa, which is a very small restaurant
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: only twenty six seats. The best seats, which are at
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: the chef's counter, carried it's three Michelin stars all that time,
• 26:48
  Speaker 6: and a couple of things happened during that time. The
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: competition grew enormously for omakasei style Japanese dining, where the
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: chef sets the menu from it changes nightly. Many many
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: courses usually built around sushi, but not always. I was
• 27:09
  Speaker 6: at masilunton I had Kobe beef, which was extraordinary, or
• 27:14
  Speaker 6: rogy beef from Japan. But there's much more competition now
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: and however, and so they know they lost the star.
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: I don't believe a word Micheline says about anything, but
• 27:27
  Speaker 6: if you're in business, in the restaurant business, it matters
• 27:30
  Speaker 6: enormously to you, because many many New Yorkers don't care
• 27:34
  Speaker 6: that much about Micheline stars. But it's a different story
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: in Europe and Asia. There are people with a lot
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: of money from Europe and Asia who come to New
• 27:42
  Speaker 6: York and when they decide where they're going to eat,
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: before they even come, they just look at what's got
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: three stars and they make their selections on that basis.
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: And so friends in the industry told me that a restaurant,
• 27:55
  Speaker 6: high end restaurant that's cut from three stars to two,
• 28:00
  Speaker 6: as Masa happened to Masa, it can cost them twenty
• 28:04
  Speaker 6: five percent of their revenue, not immediately, not overnight, because
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: you know they're booked far in advance, but over time,
• 28:13
  Speaker 6: and you know when the current reservations run out, it's
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: going to hurt them. And it's a small restaurant. Masa
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: unlike some other restaurants that lost the star and they
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: could they could weather it because there were large restaurants
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: and they were part of big companies. Masa is not.
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: So you know, they've got a tough time to hand them.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Why do you have your doubts about these micheline reviewers?
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: I have my I never believed the only reviews of
• 28:39
  Speaker 6: or ratings and restaurants I ever believed Mark or my
• 28:43
  Speaker 6: own the ones that I've written for The New York Post.
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: I never believed Zagat ratings. I never believed micheline ratings.
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: I never believed in New York Times ratings, and so
• 28:55
  Speaker 6: I'm a skeptic. The only one I do believe is
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: the three stars for Labernet them, which in my view is,
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: you know, the greatest restaurants in the world and retained
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: its three stars. But even they cannot afford to let
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: their guard down because all it takes, you know, Micheling
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: likes to upset the Every year Micheline likes to come
• 29:18
  Speaker 6: up with one, you know, reduction in the star because
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: otherwise nobody would pay attention. So they've got to knock
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: somebody down every year. So this year it was poor Masa.
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: But in terms of in terms of quality, I don't
• 29:34
  Speaker 6: believe a word of it. I've been to plenty of
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: Michelin star, one star, two star restaurants that I thought
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: absolutely stink.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, good point. Now, before we run out of time,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: what are all the real estate guys, all the restaurant guys,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: what are they saying to you about the coming Mondani era?
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: Well, I do the commercial side, as you know, not
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: residential but for the most part, but all the commercial people,
• 30:00
  Speaker 6: A don't worry. You know, we're bigger than any you know,
• 30:03
  Speaker 6: our industry is bigger than any political change. And they're
• 30:06
  Speaker 6: probably right. That doesn't mean that there isn't going to
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: be an effect on something in New York City. You know,
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: Mamdanie talks about uh, you know, residential rent control. He
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: wants to freeze rents and stabilize the pumps, but he
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: doesn't say anything like that about commercial estate. Commercial real
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: estate pays, provides, generates more tax revenue for the City
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: of New York and the state than any other industry,
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: more than Wall Street. I don't remember the exact numbers.
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: It doesn't matter. Anyone can look them up. And so,
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: you know, commercial real estate industry, which has been fortunately
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: dramatically revived over the last two years. It's extraordinary. What's
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: happened is really the driver of the New York City economy.
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: And even a you know, a communistic guy like Mam Donnie,
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: would be a fool to tamper with that.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Well, we got through Deblasio for eight years. We'll get
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: through this for four exactly. All right, Well, everybody reads
• 31:14
