Hour 3: Will AI take over? · The Mark Simone Show

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Mark Simone on 710WOR. Well, it's the 25th anniversary of 9-11.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: We look back on that terrible day. Rudy Giuliani is
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: there at the ceremony. You got the ex-presidents. You got
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: First Lady's Laura Bush. Hillary Clinton is there. Rudy is there.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: And Mayor Mamdani was walking by. Stopped to shake hands
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: with Rudy. Rudy Giuliani, very cordial, shook his hand. The picture,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: the video, going viral. Rudy was one of the people
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: asking Mamdani not to come. The families had asked him
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: not to come. He's behaved himself at the ceremony. Again,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: very nicely shook Rudy Giuliani's hand, knowing it would be
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: a picture that would go viral. So things went pretty
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: smoothly down there. It was right after the attack that morning,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: later in the day, if you were watching the real
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: highbrow shows, not the low-end shows, but the highbrow shows
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: with all these serious guys from the government, that you
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: first heard the name Osama bin Laden on a talk show.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: They started talking about it. Many of these intelligence guys
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: said they knew right away this was Osama bin Laden.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: And they then tried to pin the whole thing on
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Bush for much of the next couple of years, saying
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: there was the August 6th PDB warning him. Well, if
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: you read the August 6th PDB, it was not warning
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: about this sort of an attack. It was warning about
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: terrorists attacking federal buildings. And it says right in the PDB,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: 75 different FBI teams are on this right now. So
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: if you read that, you would think everything is being handled.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: You've got to remember, Bush was brand new in office.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: He had just taken office in January. This was September.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: And he didn't have an FBI director until the week before,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: a couple weeks before. The Democrats in Congress held up
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the confirmation hearings. So he just got an FBI director
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: in place. Now, Condoleezza Rice, who is Bush's secretary of state,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: apparently today has apologized to the families for not preventing
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: this attack. But there's not much really she could have done. Now,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: as far as preventing the attack, there were two occasions
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: in the late 90s where Bill Clinton could have killed
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Osama bin Laden and decided not to. A couple of
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: famous incidents, one where they were watching him on drones,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and they had him in their sights, and the drone
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: was armed and could blow him up, and they asked
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: for permission. This has all been documented, well-documented and written about,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and it was... Bill Clinton in the White House with
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: some of his cabinet, and they went around the table,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: and Madeleine Albright said, you can't do that. I'm negotiating
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: with countries in the Middle East. This will screw up
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: my negotiations. And the then Attorney General Janet Reno says,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you can't do that. It's not legal. There's no legal
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: basis to just kill this. So the whole cabinet, all
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: left-wing Clinton cabinet people, they talked him out of it.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: So they let bin Laden go. There was another one
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: of those occasions where they let him go. Had they
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: killed him a year or two before, who knows how
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: things might have changed. But a lot of families still
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: yelling today about the Saudis and whatever their role might
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: have been in this. We'll never get to the bottom
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: of that. But again, a lot of people, a lot
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: of officials there. Rudy Giuliani. Also, usually every 9-11 that night,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Rudy holds a dinner for the people in his administration.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: You remember Tom Von Essen, the great fire commissioner? one
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: of our greatest fire commissioners, and he was quite a
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: figure that day. Bernard Carrick was no longer with us
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and all the rest of the Giuliani administration. And it
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: was an amazing task overnight to get the city back together,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: just all sorts of little technical things. When the bombs
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: took out the buildings and the ground and blew up
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: the ground, it took out the cable, it took out
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: the electricity, it took out the power lines, it took
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: out all kinds of stuff. That had to be repaired overnight.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Somehow they got it done. So when you woke up
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: the next day, you had electricity in lower Manhattan, and
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: you had your phones, and they had to arrange for
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of food had been destroyed, like supermarkets, everything.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: They had to get food to the workers, to everything.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Lots of refrigerated trucks had to be gathered up, and
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the food had to be brought from New Jersey, and
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: then a lot of restaurants, great restaurant guys went down
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: there and set up kitchens. And you had to feed.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: There were tens of thousands of people working down there,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: these heroic workers. You had to feed them and take
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: care of them. And again, there was parts of the
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Giuliani administration that just scrambled throughout the night to get
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: everything as close to normal as they could get the
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: next day. They wanted to make sure the mail got delivered,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: all of that stuff. You couldn't come into Manhattan as
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: soon as the attacks happened. They closed the bridges. They
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: closed the tunnels. It was a long time before they
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: started letting people back into Manhattan. And if you lived
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: here in the middle of Manhattan, on every corner, in
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: the middle of every street intersection, there were military vehicles,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: there were troops, you know, like combat troops standing there.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: And there were police from all over the country who
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: all sent cars and sent police to help out. So
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: in the street, you'd see police cars everywhere, not just
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: New York City, but there'd be Albany police cars, there'd
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: be Tennessee police cars, there'd be Texas police cars. They
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: all somehow got here and all tried to help out.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: The city council is renaming streets. They've rolled out 26
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: new 9-11 street and public place co-namings and urging the
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: state to do the same thing and make sure the
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: 9-11 curriculum is taught properly in schools. So the city
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: council renaming a lot of streets all over the place.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: There's a Never Forget Way now in Howard Beach, Queens.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: There's an Eastside 9-11 Remembrance Way, Upper East Side. 9-11
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Beacon Memorial Way in Bay Ridge, New Jersey. They'll also
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: recognize nearby memorials. There's a Brooklyn 9-11 Wall of Remembrance
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: in Coney Island. There's the Tunnel to Towers 5K Run
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: and Walk 9-11 Memorial Way. in Red Hook. And great,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: great to do that. Hey, just some other news. There
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: are other things in the news. The Gilgo Beach murderer,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: that Rex Heuermann, that big Frankenstein-looking guy, you know, he's
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: in prison. They sent him to Little Siberia. That's what
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: they call it. It's actually the Clinton Correctional Facility, Dannemora.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: It's in the most bleak, isolated, frigid, cold part of
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: the Adirondack Mountains. It's up near the Canadian border. And
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: that's where he's been sitting in the locked up little Siberia.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: He's got like three life sentences. He'll never get out.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: He'll be there forever. But Rex Heumann was caught smuggling
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: drugs into the prison, drug possession, smuggling a package in.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: So they said that he will now be disciplined. Now,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: if a guy is in the worst prison in the
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: world with three life sentences and I don't know what
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the hell you could do to discipline this guy. I
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: guess it's solitary or something, but it's quite a prison. 60, 6-0,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: 60-foot-high walls, 60 feet high, seven feet of thick concrete walls. Hey,
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Savannah Guthrie was on the Today Show, and there was
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: a moment that just stopped the whole show. Savannah Guthrie
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: was talking about they're going to go to a broadcast
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: from Ireland, and they were talking about Ireland And she
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: started talking about her mother. All of a sudden, she said,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: my mother was Irish. You notice the word was. My
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: mother was Irish. It's the first time she ever publicly
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: talked about her mother not being with us anymore. So
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: it was Al Roker and, you know, everybody else. Craig Melvin.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: They all kind of froze for a second on the panel.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Got very quiet there. But she said, my mother's family.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: My mother was Irish. Her grandmother was Irish. Quite a
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: moment there. So the ceremonies continue, the Pentagon, the World
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Trade Center, and it'll go on throughout the day today. Very,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: very sad day for everybody. We all look back and
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: everybody remembers where they were 25 years ago, what they
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: were doing at that moment. They've now added six moments
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: of silence. when the first plane hit, when the first
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: building came down, when the second plane hit. Moments of
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: silence for Shanksville, for the Pentagon. They've added a seventh
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: moment of silence now for the victims. Now, President Trump
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: spoke in Pennsylvania. There's a lot of fake news out there.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: The fake news is just unbelievable. They just out and
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: out lie about everything. There was the Republican midterm convention,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: and you're saw these stories about empty seats. There were
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: empty seats there. Well, if you talk to everybody who
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: was there, there were no empty seats. In fact, there
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: were about 2,000 people in line that couldn't get in
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: because the seats were full. But there's that picture where
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: there's a section of empty seats. Well, zoom in on
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the picture. Zoom in on it. Make it really big
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: and zooming You'll notice. Look at the stage. Look at
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: the podium. There's nobody up there. There's nothing going on.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: The picture was taken way before anything started. The convention
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: hadn't even begun yet. You could always do that. They
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: used to do that at Trump rallies. They'd take a
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: picture three hours before the rally. People would get to
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: the rally 12 hours early. But they take a picture
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: three hours before it started showing empty seats. Again, just
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: total fake news. It happened with today's 9-11 ceremonies. The
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: president said maybe he'll go to the World Trade Center
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: and be there for this. And then he decided he
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: would go to the Pentagon instead. So Maggie Haberman, New
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: York Times, Maggie Haberman is always caught with her fake news.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: She's the one that made up the whole fake story.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: that the reason President Trump isn't going to the World
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Trade Center, they won't let him speak. They won't let
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: him make a speech. That's why he's not going. Complete
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: fake story. President Trump has been at that ceremony a
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: few times before. So he knows as well as anybody,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: there's no speaking. There are no speeches at the World
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Trade Center on 9-11. The families read the names, but
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: there are no speeches. There were the first couple of years,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: but then about 15 years ago, They decided they'll never
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: have any speeches, certainly not any politicians. There are no speeches.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Nobody speaks. But again, the president's been there a number
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: of times. He absolutely knew that. So Maggie Haberman pushing
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: that fake story. I saw it even again this morning
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: on New York One, which is a very, very left-wing,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: biased place, New York One. Ooh, they hate Trump over there.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: So they spread that fake story again about it. He
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: didn't come to the World Trade Center because they wouldn't
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: let him speak. But he was in Pennsylvania. Made a
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: great speech there. Mamdani was at the World Trade Center
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: in the VIP section there, behaving himself. Kathy Hochul was there.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Barack Obama. Bill Clinton. You know, Bill Clinton's the guy,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: as we said, who let Osama bin Laden live. Had
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: two chances to kill him and said, no, don't kill
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: him in the late 90s. So I wonder what he
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: thinks when he sees... the result of that decision. I
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: wonder what he thinks when he's sitting there. So there's
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of other stuff going on. The stock market
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: moving up. Oil prices have been spiking, but they're backing
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: off a little, just a little. They're not back to
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: anything near where they should be. But they did drop
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: about $ 3 today. So the president made clear at that
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: convention he doesn't expect a big price drop, does not
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: expect a big price drop until after the midterms. So
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: it did spike up about, it's up about 13 cents
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: a gallon just in the last week. And you may
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: see it go a little higher. That's apparently the Iranian
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: strategy to just stall. They've been, you know, just militarily destroyed.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Their economy is being destroyed. But apparently that's the strategy.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Just withstand this, withstand anything, just get through it. And
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: they're hoping the Democrats win the midterms and Democrats take over,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: you know, they'll They'll end the war immediately. They'll become
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: friends with the Iranians. They'll offer them money, rebuild, that
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: sort of stuff. Hey, we'll take a break, and then
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: we'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: 800-321-0710.
• 13:27

• 14:03
  Speaker 1: police say there'll be extra security everywhere. Kathy Hochul, you
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: can't always count on, said she'll make sure there's extra
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: security all over the New York State. Rosh Hashanah tonight.

• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how are you doing?
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: Good morning, Mark. Mark, believe it or not, 25 years ago,
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: my girlfriend's medical receptionist, Josephine, who was a grown woman
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: who had grown children, Her daughter worked in the World
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: Trade Center, and as when the planes hit and everything,
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: all the chaos was happening, my girlfriend's receptionist was going
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: crazy trying to contact her daughter. And in those days,
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: they had those stupid flip phones, right? She couldn't make
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: contact with her daughter. Well, as luck turned out, later
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: on in the day, she showed up at the office.
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: Her daughter was late because the train was late and
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: she didn't get to work on time at the World
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: Trade Center. Talk about luck, Mark. I myself... That day,
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: I had to go have my car inspected. So I
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: met an official New York State inspection mechanic. And he
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: has my car. I had this muscle car, Dodge Charger.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: He has it on the machine, right? And he's running
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: the test. All of a sudden, the machine stops. He said, Vin,
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: the screen went blank. He said, it must be a
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: system failure. He says, come back in a little while.
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: I go home, my girlfriend calls me and tells me
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: to put on the TV, and I watch the tower
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: come down. So I said to myself, let me go
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: pick up my car no matter what. I'll get the
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: inspection later. I go up there, and on 4th Avenue
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: and 3rd Street from Brooklyn, all you could see are
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: hordes of people that walked down. Over the bridge before
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: they closed everything down, all filthy with dust.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's right. I forgot about that. Many people had
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: to walk home over the bridge.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: Mark, even in my yard, I was getting dust. I
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: ran throughout all my properties, closing the windows and everything
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: because some people who worked, some mothers were home with
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: their kids. I called up everybody and went into apartments.
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: I said, close the windows. You want to hear a
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: 9-11 gangster story from Italy?
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Okay, real fast.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: My friends called me up and said across the street
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: from where they live and their kids and their family,
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: this Arabic bar was celebrating giving candy out as they
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: do when they kill people.
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: My friends, they got pissed off. And so they went
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: over there. They threw a garbage pail through the window
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: of the bar. Then when the guys came out, my friends,
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: they had baseball bats.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Let's not hear the rest of the story. But in
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: other words, it was like... Chaz Parliamentary saying, now you
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: just can't leave. We got the picture.
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: And Mark, when the cops came, my friend spoke to
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: them in Italian. They walked the other way. The cops
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: didn't even do anything.

  Speaker 5: a little bit about my experience during... when I was
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: working in Macy's Hells East on that day. And basically,
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: what happened was during afternoon, the way to get out
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: of the city that day, of course, Lincoln Tunnel and
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: GW and the Port Authority was closed, so you couldn't
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: get out. So we all start going up to West
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: Side Highway there to try to catch the ferry to
• 18:06
  Speaker 5: go to New Jersey. And that's when you discovered... a
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: two mile long line. And, uh, I don't know what
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: happened to those people. So, you know, basically we, we
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: just went back to the Macy's and I was lucky
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: enough to, to catch a ride with somebody to Hana
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: tunnel over there. And that was the only way really
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: to get to New Jersey. And we, you know, we
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: got there to Jersey city and it was pretty crazy.
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: It was like seeing out of a movie, like, uh,
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: you know, end of the world. Cause people just drop
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: everything even down in that area. And they just start,
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: walking towards the ferry. You know what I'm saying?
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah. All right, Alex. Thanks for calling. Yeah, I forgot
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: about that. A lot of people couldn't get out. They closed.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: There were tons of people that walked across the bridges
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: to get out of New York City. Let's go to
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Larry in Long Island. Larry, how you doing?
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: Hi, Mark.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, it's the Buchanan guy. The Buchanan guy. He hung up.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: You know, if you want to be a good prank caller,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: You've got to lose the accent. You can tell right away.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: You've got that accent. Oh, hi, Mark. This Buchanan guy's
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: been at it for... Hey, actually, it's the 25th anniversary
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: of 9-11. I remember him calling before 9-11. It's also
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: the 25th anniversary of him with the most outdated prank
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: call in the world. Anyway, give us a call. 800-321-0710
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: is the number.
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: 800-321-0710.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Zero, seven, ten. Yeah, it was an incredible experience that day.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: If you were in Manhattan and you didn't live in Manhattan,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: trying to get home was a nightmare. And then a
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: lot of people you couldn't get into Manhattan. They closed everything.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: If you came down the West Side Highway, at that
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: time they had toll booths. They wouldn't let anybody in.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: The bridges, the tunnels, everything closed up. Anyway, let's take
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: some calls. Let's go to Line 1. How you doing?
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Line 1, who is this?
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: My name is Tom.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: Tom?
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: I live in New Jersey.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: How are you doing? What did you want to say, Tom?
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: Good, Mark.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: Osama bin Laden. It was credited that a Pakistani doctor
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: led to his capture, and they said that he was
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: entitled to a very, very high ransom payment. As far
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: as I know, he was put in prison by the Pakistanis,
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: and I can't find out if he's still in prison,
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: if he got the money.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. We don't really know if it
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: was that Pakistani doctor. He was in Pakistan. They found
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: him living in that house. One of the things they
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: learned in the hunt for Saddam Hussein, you know, they
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: were filing his top lieutenants. And then they realized, follow
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: the little guys, the couriers, follow the couriers. And that's
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: how they eventually figured out where Saddam Hussein was. And
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: I believe the same thing happened with Osama bin Laden.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: They started following couriers and those people. Let's go to
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: Al and Yonkers. Al, how are you doing?
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: Good, Mark.
• 21:05
  Speaker 7: I hope you're doing well on this terrible day of remembrance.
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: You know, I just wanted to ask you, you know,
• 21:11
  Speaker 7: the president gave a good midterm convention speech, as did
• 21:15
  Speaker 7: the vice president. But I just don't understand when he
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: says about the $ 5, 000 he'll give to all the citizens
• 21:25
  Speaker 7: of this country if they win the midterms.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: Why? Maybe this should have been done already because.
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: We have the House and the Senate in both Republicans.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Well, you're never going to see the 5,000. I think
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: he was just shooting his mouth off. He loves to
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: come up with gimmicks. And it's a great way to
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: troll the fake news and the Democrats. Remember, the Democrats
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: are always giving away stuff. With Obama, it was free phones.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: With Biden, it was I'll forgive your student loans. And
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: in this case, it was just I'll give you a
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: check for 5,000. It's the kind of thing Democrats would do. Now, watch.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: As much as they attack him for it, now they'll
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: offer 10,000. Let's go to Robert in Westchester. Robert, how
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: are you doing?
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: Good morning, Mark.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, Robert.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: Thank you for taking my call. Mark, with Mondani first,
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: with him coming to the services today, he didn't do
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: it because out of respect.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: No, probably not. But he behaved himself there. He handled
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: himself pretty well there. And you'll see the picture. It's
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: going viral. He did shake hands with Rudy Giuliani, knowing
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: photographers were going to photograph that. Hey, when we come back,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Charles Payne, I don't know where he was.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: On 9-11.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Well, we'll ask him. He'll be the great Charles Payne,
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: the brilliant guy from Fox Business. He's got a new
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: book out. But people have made a fortune watching Charles Payne. Anyway,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: we'll talk to him next on 710WOR. From the WOR
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Life Vac Studios, this is the Mark Simone Show. Well,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: it's the 25th anniversary of 9-11. It's hard to believe
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: it's 25 years later. It's a date I don't want
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: to remember. It's a day you don't want to think about.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: It's a day you don't want to go through again.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: But it was just such a horrible day. But important
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: to remember. And 25 years later, we look back on it.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: As I said, they still do this in Pearl Harbor
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: still today, 85 years later. Hey, with us right now,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Charles Payne. Now, there's nobody smarter when it comes to money, investing, stocks.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: He's on the Fox Business Network every day from 2
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: to 3. It's called Making Money. You can make a
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: lot of money watching him every day. But he's also
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: written some great books that have helped people make big
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: amounts of money. And he's got a new book out,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: How to Find the One Stock That Could Change Your Life.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Charles Payne's new book, How to Find the One Stock
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: That Could Change Your Life. Windfall Formula. It shows you
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: just what to do. He's with us right now. Charles Payne,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: how you doing?
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: I'm doing so good, Mark. Well, the official name of
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: the book is Undeniable Windfalls. Oh, okay. Yeah, Undeniable Windfalls.
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: Here's the thing. Think about this. Almost everybody's got Apple
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: on their 401k, but not everyone's 401k is worth a
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: million bucks. So there's a couple of things, right? You've
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: got to be able to find these things, but also
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: intentionally make the big investment. And people are afraid because
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Wall Street tells you, hey, you know, be over-diversified. Be
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: happy with 8%, you know, this kind of stuff. And
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: all of it makes a lot of money for them
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: and hedges them. But ultimately, I've created several ways of
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: locating these ideas, whether it's broken IPOs. And by the way,
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: I use examples of my own account, like General Electric,
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: you know, after... You know, for a while, the company
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: lost its way. They brought in a new CEO. He
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: did certain things. And so there's a checklist of what
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: you want to watch. And now, of course, if you
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: bought it, if you load it up on that thing,
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: it's been a monster windfall. So it's Undeniable Windfalls.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a new book. You should get it. You'll
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: make a lot of money. Undeniable Windfalls. The book's out already.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: We can get it now. It's out.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: In fact, you know, just all they have to do
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: is go to UndeniableWindfalls.com. The book is free. People pay
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: for their own postage and handling. But the book is
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: absolutely free. And it's shattering all my records, man. It's
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: flying off. People are doing great with it. And, you know,
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: for me, it's humbling. I was in London last weekend.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: Three separate occasions, people came up, made money with you.
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: I was in Scotland a couple weeks ago at St.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: Andrews.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: You know, a guy runs up to me, I made
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: money with him. Even today, I was at the firehouse
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: that lost the most amount of money. firefighters on 9-11
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: and a couple of people mentioned and I'm like, thanks,
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: you know, but it's, it's a beautiful thing, man. And
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: the good news is that the window of opportunity is
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: going to be open. I think for at least another
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: three to five years.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Undeniable windfalls is the book. Go to undeniable windfalls.com. Hey,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: you were talking about obviously 9-11 all morning. I forgot
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: to bring up the stock market obviously closed and it
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: was a frightening period because everybody thought when it, it
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: would plunge like 10,000 points or something. But who was it?
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Was it Dick Grasso that brilliantly led us through that?
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was so amazing. Oh, my goodness. He was just,
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: you know, I'm getting goosebumps right now, man, just talking
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: to you about this. But he was amazing. It was
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: an amazing show of solidarity. And it was interesting because
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: after that, almost every time there was a headline terror event,
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: the market went up instead of going down. It's sort
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: of like, listen, we know what you want to do.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: You know, we know that the stock market is sort
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: of a proxy for America's greatness, and you're just not
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: going to succeed. You're not going to do that to us.
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was an amazing period there. I mean, Grasso,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: brilliant to it. And obviously, there was no Fox Business
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Network 25 years ago. What were you doing then? Well,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: here's the irony.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: So I have my own business, and my business was,
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: and I still do, of course, you know, doing the
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: hotline and writing the books. But My office was one
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: block away from really where all the, you know, I
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: was down at 50 Broadway. And so my gym was like,
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: my gym was closed. It was one block from the
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: World Trade Center. I was on my way to CNN
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: that day, CNN FM, that morning. So I'm on the
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: road with my wife on the West Side Highway, and
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I'm seeing all these fire trucks going on the other side,
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: you know, the uptown side going downtown. And my initial
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: assumption was, you know, this must be the biggest pileup
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: in the world. I've never seen this, you know, this many,
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: you know, first responders. And so I get to CNN,
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: take the elevator up, and they say, yeah, a plane
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: hit the World Trade Center. So initially I'm thinking, a
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: prop plane? You know, no, it was a passenger plane.
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: And at their location, they had a giant window, like
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: a 100-foot window. You could see the entire city. And
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: right at that moment, the next plane went into the
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: building and to the world trade and you know I
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: just I left man I went and got my son
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: then I went and got my daughter and I went
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: home but it was just amazing you know.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah wow so we're talking with Charles Payne get his
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: new book Undeniable Windfalls how to pick that one stock
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: how to really really succeed with it undeniablewindfall.com undeniablewindfalls.com hey
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: let me just ask AI all we heard is going
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: to put everybody out of work nobody will have a
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: job AI will take over everything Yet just the opposite
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: has happened. Employment is up. Why is that?
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: You know, this is the fourth industrial revolution. And this
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: has always happened, every industrial revolution, from the very first
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: one when they had the first weaving machines in Great Britain.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: You know, there was like, well, you know, you had
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: these big, big giant rooms of women weaving and clothes together.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: All of a sudden you have this looming machines that
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: can do the work of like 30 women weaving. And,
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: you know, people, there was a guy named Ned Ludd
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: who went and one day him and some folks went
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: and they broke up all the machines, right? And ever
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: since then, they called people who were afraid of technology Luddites.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: So some of this is just naturally, you know, Luddites.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: And there's so much common sense. I mean, listen, we
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: do know, if you look at some of the things
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: that are happening now with some of these college grads,
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: AI has taken their jobs. But Ned Ludd, and I
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: got to tell you, this blew my mind because It
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: was in The Economist. They hate President Trump. They will
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: never do anything to give him a compliment. But last week,
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: they acknowledged that so far, if you trace AI jobs...
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: that have been lost, it's about 200,000. And AI jobs
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: that have been gained, it's 1 million. And so, you know,
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: if this industrial revolution is like all the rest, when
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: the dust settles, we'll have more jobs, better paying jobs,
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: and humanity will be better off.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and five years from now, the data center will
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: not be something we'd be afraid of. It'll operate quietly
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: with quieter turbines and all. Will that be the case? Oh, yeah, absolutely.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: It's going to be less than five years. Right now,
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: I've been interviewing a bunch of mayors from these towns.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: It's already an economic godsend for these places where... You know,
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: the population was like 20 years ago, there were 3,000
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: people there, and now there's 800. You know, these kind
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: of places where the last thing they care about is
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: a little extra noise. You know, they're dying, they're in
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: death's bed, and all of a sudden, you know, you've
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: got 2,000 construction jobs. And then when that's over, after
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: a few years, you'll have at least 300 or 400
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: permanent jobs. They'll create their own energy source, and they'll
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: have extra energy, actually. They'll have enough to put it
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: back into the system. Uh, so the utility costs are
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: going to go down, not up. So it's just, you know,
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: it's that they're giving it the same treatment that they
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: gave natural gas and fracking, uh, you know, the, the
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: same treatment they gave to, Hey, we need to stop
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: having babies in this country. Uh, you know, it's the
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: same sort of treatment that we've seen over and over
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: again for advancement. And I think this one is extra
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: special because, you know, they hate the fact that too,
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: how we started this conversation that Trump is getting so
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: much credit for these blue collar jobs, not only jobs.
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: But blue-collar wages are going through the roof.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: Wow. Hey, Charles Payne has a new book out, and
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: you should get it. It's called Undeniable Windfalls. Undeniable Windfalls.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Just finding that one stock that could change your life.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: You can go to UndeniableWindfalls.com. UndeniableWindfalls.com. There are a lot
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: of stories like that where somebody just had this one stock,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: maybe Berkshire Hathaway a million years ago, or just became
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: millionaires off one stock. Is that what inspired you?
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah. But as far as it was my own experience, really,
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: you know, I kind of went, you know, everything I
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: do and everything I've done is just me learning on
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: the job, so to speak, right, and being introspective. And,
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: you know, over the last few years, I would glance
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: up and see a stock go across the tape, you know, wow,
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: XYZ is $ 140 a share. Let me see when I
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: sold this thing. And you look back and you're like, what?
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: And then you think, why did I sell it then?
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: Like Taser. You know the Tasers?
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: So I think I must have made, I think I
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: bought Taser. I made 40% on it in about a month. Wow.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: That's a lot of money, right? In a month?
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: So it changed its name in about, if I'd have
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: held it for another, let's say, four or five years.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: Let's say I put $ 100 into it and I took
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: out $ 140. That same $ 100 would have been something on
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: it like $ 50, 000. In other words, I missed thousands of percent.
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: Thousands of percent. And why? Why?
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Why?
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: I kept asking myself, why am I doing this? Why
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: do we do this? And how can we avoid it?
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: So I spent over a year writing the book, but
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: I spent many years pondering this and taking notes for it. Wow.

  Speaker 1: You know, if you're a college kid today, it was
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: before you were born. You know, like when we'd hear
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: about Pearl Harbor, it was something so far in the past.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: We weren't alive when it was there. So for many
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: college kids today, it's something they didn't go through. But
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: important to remember it every year. One of the... Those
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: lost in the World Trade Center. The granddaughter spoke, and
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: she said, we'll never forget. Most important thing, never forget. Hey, otherwise,
