1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: Now the Guardian Angel of Top Radio is here. Curtis

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:09,319
Speaker 1: Leewah guest host the Mark Simone Show on seven ten.

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 2: Woar oh. The hawk is talking outside. It's cold, and

4
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask to wonder what he's going to be

5
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 2: like when the ball drops in Times Square or the

6
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 2: tourists in town and on. Nobody from our aria is

7
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 2: going into Times Square when the ball drops, you have

8
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 2: to wear it depends. They put you in cattle pens.

9
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,639
Speaker 2: You stand there for hours while drunk people are blowing

10
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: these horns in your ear, just so you can go

11
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: back to your country of origin and tell them you

12
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: were there when the ball dropped in Times Square. It

13
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 2: is bizarre or more depend sales on the island of

14
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 2: Manhattan New Year's Eve than any other day of the year.

15
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 2: And these are generally by younger people who are drunk.

16
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 2: You know what that promulgates you to do, as you

17
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 2: stand for six hours or more in a cattle pen,

18
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 2: and if you leave, you can't come back. So we'll

19
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: give you updates on that. Again. It's substituting for Mark Simon.

20
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 2: It's been great be able to take here to January second,

21
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 2: and then Mark will be back so I want to

22
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 2: make sure is he who also is a refuge from WABC,

23
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 2: which used to be always broadcasting Curtis. Now it's always

24
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 2: bashing Curtis. And you've found a home of your own

25
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 2: here at seven to ten WOR and I hope so

26
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: many of you newfound listeners have done such. It's a

27
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 2: great article if you get a chance to look at

28
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 2: brought to my attention by Tom Cuddy Side Radio, and

29
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: the headline is Curtis Lee was radio persona resonates with

30
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 2: a new generation. That means, you know, millennials, gen ze

31
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 2: is I happen to be a baby boom I like

32
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 2: so many of you, seventy one soon to be seventy

33
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 2: two on March twenty six. So that says a lot.

34
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 2: And that how we have to pivot and shift and

35
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 2: understand that the audience that we're talking to, no matter

36
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 2: what platform you're using, it's changing. We baby boomas when

37
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: no longer the majority I know for a lot of you,

38
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: we pay the bills, we have the wealth yechy Yeah yeah, yeah, Okay,

39
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 2: We're going to talk about that later on because there's

40
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: this concept out there and I had quite a battle

41
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,399
Speaker 2: yesterday with the Wall Street Journal that he who has

42
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 2: the gold makes the rules, and I said, no, no, no, no,

43
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 2: no no. I operate by the Golden rule. Do unto

44
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 2: others as you would have them do unto you. We'll

45
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 2: get it to that momentarily. We'll get into that momentarily.

46
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: But you gotta read this article. It's really great. It

47
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 2: shows you the shifting dynamics and it led to the

48
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 2: election of Zoraimandami that's being talked about with his swearing in,

49
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: and I'll get into all those nitty gritty details with you,

50
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 2: but you got to read Inside Radio Curtis Lee was

51
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 2: radio persona resonates with a new generation and how WABC

52
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: so desperately wants me to come back, And it's sort

53
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: of like I should be like lady God guys, poker

54
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 2: face to them, right, But I can't. My expressions are

55
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 2: and they listen intently, as to so many WABC listeners,

56
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: who I hope we'll discover WOR the voice of New

57
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 2: York seven to ten as a place for them to

58
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: be as it was for me I was growing up

59
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: from time to time, and I'm sure for many of you,

60
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: and of course they're the hardcore listeners to this station.

61
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 2: But you got said in the Morning, he's Tessio from

62
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: The Godfather. You got Greg Kelly, he's Moe Green. And

63
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 2: then there's Dominic Carter, he's Salazzo. And so some people

64
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 2: are on occasion they'll see me in the streets of

65
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 2: the subways because I'm in the streets and subways every day. Well,

66
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 2: you're going back to WABC, I said, no, I'm substituting

67
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 2: for Mark Simone at war. It for me would be

68
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 2: like remember Lady Gaga. Speaking of Lady Gaga, is he

69
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: at the MTV Music Awards in twenty ten when she

70
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 2: showed up dressed up in a raw flank steak dress? Oh?

71
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: Is that that was solo budget? But it would be

72
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: the equivalent of me walking into a cage of hungry

73
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 2: dobleman pinchers with pork chop pants on. It ain't happening.

74
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: So read the article. It's really good. Some of you,

75
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 2: if you connecting the dots, might actually figure out in

76
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: which direction I'll be going. But yesterday a very intense

77
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 2: sit down two hours with the Wall Street Journal. And

78
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: you know, the Wall Street Journal is owned by Murdoch

79
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 2: and represents the interests of the masters of the universe,

80
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 2: the billionaires, fortune five hundred companies, hedge fund monsters, and

81
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 2: people with a lot of money, and they believe in

82
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 2: this concept. It's clear when you read the newspaper that

83
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 2: he who has the gold makes the rules. Wealth financial

84
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 2: power gives you authority and control, and the person that

85
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: has the power to dictate the terms and set the

86
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 2: conditions is he who has the gold. There are a

87
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 2: lot of people, especially in our country, who believe exactly

88
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 2: that I don't. I never have. It was never raised

89
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 2: that way, ashes to ash, his dust to dust. You

90
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 2: come into this world with bupkus and you leave with bupkus.

91
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 2: I don't live along those lines. My belief is from

92
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 2: any of you, no matter how you were raised, the

93
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 2: way you were raised, I'm sure you were exposed to

94
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 2: the golden rule. Do unto others as you would have

95
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 2: them do unto you, and that encourages fairness and empathy.

96
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 2: So it was quite a wrestling match between me and

97
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 2: this very esteemed reporter. He covered me in the after

98
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: baths and my lost to Eric Adams in twenty twenty one.

99
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: When I warned you, remember heresy, I warned everyone he

100
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 2: would be corrupt, It would be chaos, the most corrupt

101
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: mayor in the history of New York City. And boy

102
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 2: that says a lot, because we've had a lot of

103
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: corrupt mayors. So then we got into the discussion about

104
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 2: the new kid on the blocks or Hanmandami. Remember a

105
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 2: year ago, not even his neighbors in that storia knew

106
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: for sure who's are on my Domie was. I mean,

107
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: let's face it, who the hell knew who's are on

108
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 2: Mondamie was? And now he is an international figure, hated

109
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: or loved, but he is gonna be sworn in to

110
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 2: office right after midnight, when the ball is dropping in

111
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 2: Times Square and all the outer towns are going cuckolamonga.

112
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 2: Many of you will be in other prices, maybe watching

113
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 2: it on TV, and he will be sworn in. And

114
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 2: this is very cool. I gotta give them props. Uh yeah,

115
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 2: oh w yeah, you see you always four zoro. No,

116
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: when you aren't props, you aren't props. They have chosen

117
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 2: the private ceremony of swearing it at twelve midnight, when

118
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 2: the ball drops in the abandoned subway station that's right

119
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: underneath City Hall, which I've been into many times, not

120
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 2: supposed to. It's magnificent. It is a remarkable architectural achievement

121
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 2: right under City Hall Park. It's got the terra cotta tiles,

122
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: it's got twelve brass chandeliers, there's a curved platform skylights.

123
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: It's distinctly European. I mean, I always would go to

124
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: Europe and I would look at their train facilities or

125
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 2: their subway system ten times better than ours. Architecture design.

126
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 2: You go to Paris Metro, they have rubber wheels, you know.

127
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 2: You go up to Montreal, they play they play classical music.

128
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:45,079
Speaker 2: They have rubber wheels. It doesn't attack your senses. This

129
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 2: is a very cool place. He's gonna be sworn in

130
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 2: by Chis James, Attorney General. And I'm sure with family

131
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 2: and friends. That station was actually put out of business

132
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 2: in forty five. And if you take the six ran

133
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 2: to the left stop, which is City Hall, the sixth train,

134
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 2: as you know, continues going downtown, but it goes in

135
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 2: sort of like an oblong it goes around in order

136
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 2: to go back uptown, and that's when it passes through

137
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 2: that station. So the reporter for the Wall Street Channel said,

138
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 2: have you been invited to that ceremony? I said no,

139
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 2: of course, not not family and friends. He goes, well,

140
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 2: what about the next day on the first, when Bertie

141
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 2: the out Takaca Sanders is going to be delivering the

142
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: oath of office to Zoran Mandami in the public inauguration

143
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: right in front of city Hall. And I haven't been

144
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 2: to one of those since Rudy Giuliani was inaugurated on

145
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: the front steps of the City Hall back in nineteen

146
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: ninety four. Remember when Andrew his son was climbing all

147
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: over the podium and how many times did Chris Farley

148
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 2: do that imitation and lampoon him in Saturday night Life.

149
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 2: It was great, But I remember sitting there was cold,

150
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 2: and the hawk was talking and David Dinkins was there. See,

151
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 2: that is what should happen. And I know of late

152
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 2: in local elections and regional and statewide elections and certainly

153
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 2: the federal election. You know when Trump said I'm not

154
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 2: gonna be there. Uh Biden stole you late. No no, no, no, no, no,

155
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 2: you lose you sit there. This is what's great about

156
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: America is that there is the changeover of authority and power.

157
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 2: And you want everybody to see that. It's gracious that

158
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,959
Speaker 2: this is what one of the things that are so

159
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 2: great about the country. Well, the sitting mayor who decided

160
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: he wasn't gonna run for office because he was gonna

161
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 2: get beat if he ran a second time. Any which

162
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 2: way you looked at it, he's playing this game. You

163
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 2: know what was me? Maybe I'll go possibly could be Hey.

164
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: By the way, I want to write a book. I

165
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 2: got that title here. I didn't do nothing wrong. I

166
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 2: didn't do nothing wrong by Eric Adams, and he said

167
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: you heard in the news clip. He wants to get

168
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 2: involved in cryptocurrency, which is the world of bitcoin better

169
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 2: known as crime coin. With all those nefarious characters, they're

170
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 2: perfect for him. Cuomo, I don't know. Yeah, he's a

171
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 2: sow loser. He probably slid it under that rock out

172
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 2: in the Hamptons with his billionaire friends. And do you

173
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 2: know something, I have not gotten an invitation. The question

174
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 2: is what should I do? Should I just show up?

175
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 2: I mean I competed against him. Should I sit there

176
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 2: and say, yeah, yeah, this is what our democracy is about.

177
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 2: I lost. I'm not a sol loser like Cuomo or

178
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 2: Eric Adams. And then afterwards, you know they got that

179
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 2: block party there, you know, through the canyony heroes like

180
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 2: gonna be forty fifty thousand zorin easters. So I want

181
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 2: to ask you a question. Should I Should I even

182
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 2: bother showing up? Because look, I'm the mayor of the people. Look,

183
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 2: I'm in the subways and streets every day. You know,

184
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 2: I get it. Zoron is doing his initial swearing in

185
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 2: at midnight in the first subway station ever built in

186
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 2: New York City nineteen oh four. It is magnificent, but

187
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 2: he's trying to say, yeah, you see, I'm synergistic with

188
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 2: the Peter Khans. You don't write this Subways Cormo never

189
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: did Adams on occasion, you know, with his posse of

190
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 2: twenty four bodyguards on the NYPD while he was on

191
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 2: his way to a club till the break of dawn,

192
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 2: because you know, man, he didn't leave clubs until like

193
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 2: four in the morning. Part of his problem. Although it's

194
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 2: interesting because Zoron Mandami and his father, the professor of

195
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 2: African Studies at Columbia University, who is infamous in his

196
00:12:55,160 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 2: own right, actually had dinner at Eric adams invitation. Yeah, yeah,

197
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: Ery Gadams, Like, h tough guy, you get out of here.

198
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 2: You had dinner with these guys and you know what

199
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 2: he said his interest was. And this is before Zoran

200
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 2: obviously was running for mayor. He was just the assemblyman

201
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 2: that very few people knew in Estoria. He wanted to

202
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: know all about Ed I mean from Uganda, Ed I

203
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 2: men yeah, d I mean in Tebby remember working with

204
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 2: Kadafi at that time? Man, Well, was Kadaffi our friend

205
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 2: or our fae? I don't know one minute? He's a

206
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 2: friend of fall anyway, he was an anti semi. Remember

207
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 2: they took those Israelies. They held them hostage, including BB's

208
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 2: Bebe's brother who went in there with the IDF to

209
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 2: rescue you and unfortunately he was the only one killed.

210
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 2: And Ed I mean who was best known for taking

211
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 2: his political enemies and feeding them to crocodiles in Lake Victoria,

212
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 2: or some times eating them. And then he was drilling

213
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 2: out of Uganda by Hansania and guess who who gave

214
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 2: him a place to stay until he died and went

215
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 2: straight to hell without an asbestos suit. Saudi Arabia the

216
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 2: house of fraud, with the fake phony, fraudulent princes, you know,

217
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 2: with the schmantas on their heads and the fake beards

218
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 2: and mustaches and then when you see him here in Manhattan,

219
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 2: which I've seen many times. They got the knockoff Armani suits,

220
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: they're chasing skirts, they're doing blow. It's the Western way.

221
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 2: But when they go back to the land of Mecca

222
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: and Medina, all of a sudden they are the guardians

223
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 2: of the faith. Get out of here. So the question

224
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 2: is should I stay or should I go? I haven't

225
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 2: been invited. It's not like I'm asking to be invited.

226
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: But the proper courtesy would be to show that this

227
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 2: is how them I because he works. You got a

228
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 2: winner and you got a loser. And we would hope

229
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 2: that jore On Mondami does well because if he does well,

230
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 2: the city does well. Or should I be like a

231
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 2: lot of other people say, oh, you don't want to

232
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 2: be seen there. Nah, he's going to crash and burn.

233
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 2: It's going to be horrible. So I'm gonna leave it

234
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 2: up to you or the audience. What should I do?

235
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 2: Because the Wall Street Journal wanted to know, and I said,

236
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: I have no idea what I'm going to do. Maybe

237
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 2: they'll tell me the invitation was lost in the mail.

238
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 2: You know that's typical, right, Oh, we mailed it out

239
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 2: to snall mail. By the way, I opened up that

240
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 2: envelope that came in yesterday. The snail mail is the

241
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: uh there was no antras in there. Okay, I know

242
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: you took the ship pro a prophylactic just in case

243
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 2: you're okay. So let's fire up the numbers. Here the

Speaker 2: New York City, There's no doubt about it. But would

251
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: that be ghosts? Would that be sort of low budget

252
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: for me just to show up, especially if you haven't

253
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,440

267
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 2: line and say, well, it's just the some Alians? But

268
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,439
Speaker 2: we're gonna go after religious groups and secular groups that

269
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 2: we know all about that we want to protect because

270

288
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:23,080

292
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,359

00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,479
Speaker 2: had dropped out, if only Curtis had dropped out, they

297
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 2: could have won. Yeah. Maybe if we had done a

298
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 2: two year election. Right yeah, yeah, you're lost. And the

299
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal guy was saying, and where did he

300
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,800

305
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 2: in the primary, he whooped Zorhan Mandami in the black vote.

306
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 2: He beat him by about six seven percent, although he

307
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 2: lost by thirteen percent of z on Mandami because Cromo

308
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 2: thought he was going to have a coronation. Hey, I'm

309
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 2: angel Cuomo. He as I said it at first debate. Hey, Andrew,

310
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 2: I knew your father, Mario. You'll know Mario Cmo never was,

311
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,439
Speaker 2: never will be. So he loses the primary and he

312
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 2: decides I'm not going away because I'll get the black

313
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 2: majority of the vote in a general election. Now you

314
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 2: would think if you did that in the primary, he

315
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 2: got a pretty good chance because most blacks are Democrat,

316
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 2: they are not Republicans. Do you know that Zorhan Mandami

317
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 2: won the black vote in the general election by twenty

318
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 2: five percent, So that shows you how Cuomo was asleep.

319
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 2: He couldn't even protect the vote that he had that

320
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 2: should have been his because he had only two focuses,

321
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 2: Black vote, Jewish row. That's it. He didn't care about

322
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: anybody else. Meantime, the Latinos who are the minority fastest

323
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,479
Speaker 2: going minorities soon to be the majority. The two and

324
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 2: a half million, thirty percent of the population, right, seventeen

325
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 2: percent of the vote. It didn't spend no time going no, no, no, no,

326
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 2: I'm gonna win this with a black vote in Jewish show.

327
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: And it turns out that as the Jewish people were

328
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 2: making all the noise on my nomini anti Semitism, bb Israel,

329
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 2: Zarhaimandammy got thirty three percent of the Jewish vote in

330
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 2: the general as he did in the primary. And it

331
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 2: pretty much came down along these lines. By one third

332
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 2: of the vote was very pro issue, one third yes Jews,

333
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 2: very pro Palestinian, and the other third had no relationship

334
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 2: to Israel whatsoever. They were secular, They just they just

335
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 2: made their own choice. I remember that morning. I went

336
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 2: to the Fifth Avenue synagogue in the morning. That synagogue

337
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 2: is not on Fifth Avenue, by the way, but anyway,

338
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 2: I go to fifth. I've been there many times in

339
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 2: the morning for the notch the breakfast. You know, I

340
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 2: get my bagel and deshmian. Oh you gotta drop out,

341
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 2: you gotta drop out? What do I gotta drop out? Oh?

342
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 2: For the good of Jewish people. Sorry. Then that night

343
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 2: I go to the slope the Park Avenue Synagogue, old

344
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 2: Jewish crowd. Oh zoha, and he's the best. He's the best, boy.

345
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 2: Why don't you figure it out amongst yourselves? Huh, figure

346
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 2: it out, argue with yourselves. But he won, Zohaman dami

347
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 2: when you look at the percentages, because he got the

348
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 2: Muslim vote first time. I remember the million Muslims in

349
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 2: New York City that most of you don't pay attention to.

350
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 2: They got all the coffee wagons and the uber drivers,

351
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 2: their businessmen, business women, growing population. Generally, only about ten

352
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 2: percent of them ever showed up to vote before, although

353
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 2: many were able to vote, well, forty to fifty percent

354
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 2: came out because these are on mandami. Most importantly, because

355
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 2: so many Republicans vilified Muslims, both their religion and their culture.

356
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,920
Speaker 2: Was who was a mistake, A huge mistake. That's how

357
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 2: we won. Well you know it was rig No, it

358
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 2: wasn't rigged. Well you know it was fixed.

359
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 3: No.

360
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 2: Two million, one hundred thousand people showed up to vote

361
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 2: in the mayoral election, the highest turnouts in sixty five,

362
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 2: when I was eleven years old and John Lindsay won

363
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 2: the mayoralty against Abraham Beam and Bill Buckley, who is

364
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 2: the conservative. But then again, you could weigh in the

365
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 2: class song should I stay or should I go? To

366
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 2: this inauguration? My mom, I'm not invited, but that hasn't

367
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,719
Speaker 2: prevented me from showing up before. As many of you know,

368
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: I numbers one eight hundred three to one zero seven ten.

369
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 2: That's one eight hundred three to one zero seven ten.

370
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 2: On this your place to be from now? On seven

376
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 2: be talking about Somalia. Most of you can't even find

377
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 2: it on a map, but you've all become self appointed experts.

378
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 2: By the way, uh Medicaid Mills member oxy Contons still

379
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:09,479

00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 2: much did we get ripped off by the Purdue family,

381
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 2: You know, the Sackler family. What do they make billions

382
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 2: and billions our money? How many Americans died anybody go

00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 2: just had to pay funds. Hmmm, Jesse, if you're gonna

Speaker 2: go after the Somalians, I'm all for you, but don't

386
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 2: stop there. There's a lot of other people who have

387
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 2: ripped us off over the years, and as a result,

388
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 2: people who have died. Right the Perdue Company, the Sackler family.

389
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 2: How many movies were made about that? I think we're

391
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 2: always question authority. Always. Don't just repeat what is being

392
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 2: said to you without saying Wait. The Similians aren't the

393
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 2: only ones ripping us off in our own tri state area,

394
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 2: New York, New Jersey. Kinetic N Beyon. How many religious

395
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 2: and secular groups have ripped us off since nineteen seventy five. Oh,

396
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 2: I'm gonna mention NTY because is Mike Simone's show, and

397
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 2: it'll have to deal with it. But you know what

398
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 2: I'm talking about. Let's go if we can. A David

399
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 2: calling from Jersey. Your turn to be heard? He at

400
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: seventy ten wo or.

401
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 4: Thank you for taking my call, Curtis, Happy New Year, everybody.

402
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 4: I wanted to say Spence Abraham was George Debbie Bush's

403
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 4: Secretary of Energy and he was a Muslim, but he

404
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 4: raised a valid point. And for everybody who is a

405
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 4: liberal or who's Jewish who voted for communist Mandami, I

406
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 4: really hope you guys will one day look in the mirror.

407
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 4: With that being said, I would highly recommend you wear

408
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 4: your regal robe and show up as prince at this

409
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 4: RSVP who has a block party in January. With that

410
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 4: being said, I would recommend bringing botox Bondie. She likes

411
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 4: the limelight. She's not very good at her job, and

412
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 4: she's quite incompetent, and it's a twofer. Maybe she can

413
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 4: pick up the millions of documents on her desk that

414
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 4: are still in New York.

415
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 2: Oh oh, we're gonna mention the Epstein files. And apparently

416
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 2: what pushed Marjorie Taylor Green over the edge from being

417
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 2: the number one supporter of President Donald Trump is when

418
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 2: he was screaming at her on the phone, and it

419
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 2: was amplified. Her whole staff heard it. You gotta stop, Marjorie,

420
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 2: this involves some of my friends. Well, we know that

421
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 2: nobody's implicating you, Donald Trump president, but we know that again,

422
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 2: and it goes back to my arguments yesterday with the

423
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal. He who has the gold makes the rules.

424
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 2: Do you believe that I don't? By the way, what

425
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: is the origin of at We know what the origin

426
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 2: is of the rule that I that I live and

427
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 2: die by many of you the Golden Rule do unto

428
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 2: others as you would have them do unto you. But

429
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 2: the masters of the universe, you always think they get

430
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: their way. Now let's go if we can right here

431
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 2: to animals calling from New Jersey. Your turn to be

432

00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 3: all the dots together for this thing that's going on

00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:41,959
Speaker 3: now between Somalia, Samalia, Land, Minnesota, Yahoo, if you can

437
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 3: put all the things together there and let me know

438
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 3: what's going on in the world.

439
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 2: Oh hey, look, I'm gonna do that because.

Speaker 3: for five years. I used to go there on the weekends,

446
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 3: the best swings in town.

447
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 2: Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about there, But

448
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 2: I don't eat wings anymore. I don't eat meat anymore.

449
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 2: I don't eat chicken, that fowl, not venison, not fish.

450
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 2: I am a vegetarian, believe it or not, having won

451
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 2: many international gastronomical eating contests over the year, having finished

452
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 2: third place in the Hot Dog Eating Contest and Nathan's

454
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 2: thank my wife Nancy for that, who herself is a vegetarian,

455
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 2: and I am for a number of reasons, including health reasons.

456
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 2: Some of you should try it out there, by the way,

457
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 2: in preparation for Somalia talk that most of you all

458
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 2: seem to be now self appointed experts, like a lot

459
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,920

00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 2: you good, we're going after these people who are ripping

498
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 2: our money off tax stock. But are we gonna stop

499
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 2: here because we don't like them? Well, maybe they don't

500
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 2: share all politics? Are we going to go after people

501
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 2: who share all politics and rip us off even worse

502
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 2: than what you are witnessing now? In midnight Sota Now more.

503
00:31:55,920 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: With New York's iconic straight Shooters, Curtis guest hosting from

504
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: Marximone on sevent ten.

505
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 2: Woo, what a freak Jeffrey Epstein is. We all knew that,

506
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:18,080
Speaker 2: But the more I look into this monster, just release

507
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 2: all the files and let the mighty fall. Yeah. Remember

508
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 2: it starts in what I said, he who has the

509
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 2: gold makes the rules. I don't believe in that at all.

510
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 2: I believe in the Golden rule. But we got a

511
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 2: million more files that need to be downloaded. Apparently, Marjorie

512
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 2: Taylor Green, what broke her maga support for the president

513
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 2: is when he was screaming at her and saying stop

514
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 2: at no more of Epstein. These are some of my friends. Now,

515
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 2: do you believe Mardrie Taylor Green was as loyal as

516
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 2: anybody could? Beat it? Donald Trump? Or probably what the

517
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 2: Trump White House will say that didn't happen. But there

518
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 2: was a psych colleges and a report that said, you

519
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: know that Jeffrey Epstein was ordering from Amazon all these

520
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 2: boxes of Drakes coffee cakes, ring Dings, Twinkies, devil Dogs,

521
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 2: and that she was able to figure out that that

522
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 2: could be a window into his appalling sexual predations junk food.

523
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 2: Imagine how many of you would be a Jeffrey Epstein

524
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 2: or you don't want to go anywhere, keep it right

525
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 2: here on Your Newfound Friend seven w or the Voice

526
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:40,320

Speaker 2: Woor substituting for Mark, will be back on January second.

529
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 2: So I want to tiptoe around the tulips a little

530
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 2: bit and we talk about Somalians and ripoffs of the taxpayers,

531
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,320
Speaker 2: because a lot of sensitive people out there, they know

532
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 2: that I know where all the bones are buried and

533
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 2: who buried it. So I'll do a tiny tin dance

534
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 2: around the tulips a little bit, so it's to not

535
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: aggravate Mark upon his return. Play the ukulele? Who's Who's

536
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 2: his girlfriend? Remember he saw it on Ed Sullivan and

537
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 2: quite a merv Griffin the talk shows. Remember who is it?

538
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 2: A quick little trivia here one eight hundred three two

539
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,359
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten. That's one eight hundred three two

540
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten. Who's the girlfriend? And he played

541
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 2: the ukulele? Two? But also I just want to before

542
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 2: we talk about Somalian I give you a geography and

543
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,399
Speaker 2: a history lesson and a lesson about ripoffs that didn't

544
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,919
Speaker 2: start with the Somalians actually started. I first learned about

545
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 2: them in nineteen seventy five, and it wasn't in Minnesota,

546
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 2: was right in our tri state area. Get ready. But

547
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 2: as Tom Cuddy brought to my attention our program director

548
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 2: here WOR, you got to get the inside radio edition.

549
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 2: The headline Curtis Lee was radio persona resonates with a

550
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 2: new generation. And as you know, I'm on here my

551
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 2: new found friendly station at seven to ten WOR that

552
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,400
Speaker 2: I and Nancy listened to. But there's another station on

553
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 2: also that's broadcasting talk and that's WNYC, which I actually

554
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 2: was there for a while. Believe it or not. You've

555
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 2: been in this business, you've been fired, you've been hired.

556
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 2: That's just the nature of it. It's like counting the

557
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 2: rings of a tree to determine how long the tree

558
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 2: is out. So yes, they I'm out there, and there

559
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 2: are a number of Zorinistas. They listen to WNYC and

560
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 2: Brian Lair on forever like from ten to twelve, and

561
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 2: apparently he had a contest on his show and the

562
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 2: first question was which mayoral candidate listened to EDM in

563
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 2: this last mayoral election, And apparently a caller a zerin

564
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 2: East and nailed it first right out of the box

565
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 2: at the start of his program. Oh that's chain Smokers,

566
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 2: you know, Curtis EDM. Electronic dance music, that's for sure.

567
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 2: Under the kajjuiceco bridge. We saw Nancy and him there

568
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 2: like really grooving into it, and it was. It was

569
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 2: a great concert. And we loved Chain Smokers all their songs,

570
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 2: but especially Don't Let Me Down. I liked the version

571
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 2: with Daya singing. And then you got to Alex Paul

572
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: and Drew Taggart And this is what we do in

573
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 2: the wee hours in the morning to decompress at the

574
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 2: slaverer household with our six cats. That's tried. If you

575
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 2: don't like it, tough noogies. But we listen to a

576
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 2: lot of EDM and we watched the reruns of The Office.

577
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 2: As I told you, my favorite episode is the snowball fight.

578
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 2: Was that not great? You know when there was a

579
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 2: little dusting of snow and Scranton, Pennsylvania. Now there's a

580
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 2: threat of more inclement weather in the air. Anyway, the

581
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 2: point is that's what we do to decompress. I can

582
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 2: I listen to talk radio all day. Sorry, gives me

583
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 2: a headache, gives me a migraine. It's two repetitious. It's

584
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 2: like you want to do good talk radio, You've got

585
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,359
Speaker 2: to do two hours of preparation for every one hour

586
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 2: on the air, and you gotta be entertaining. I don't

587
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 2: need to hear what was on the news from the

588
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 2: day before. I got it already. But maybe, like you'll

589
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:55,359
Speaker 2: hear coming up a little education on Somalians and Somali's

590
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 2: and also the ripoffs that have taken place there that

591
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 2: have gotten everyone bent out of shape, as they should.

592
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,800
Speaker 2: But now that it started, and this is good FBI,

593
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 2: you know, Department of Homeland Service says, are we going

594
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 2: to do that in other communities, including amongst many of

595
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 2: our political allies in France. Oh, that maybe is where

596
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 2: you want to draw the line. But anyway, High five

597
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,800
Speaker 2: to Lenny Lowpate of having me as the first question

598
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 2: out of the box. Quick point I had been fired.

599
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,880
Speaker 2: I think it was like ninety three, right at the

600
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,880
Speaker 2: point that Rudy Giuliani was elected mayor, and as I mentioned,

601
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,240
Speaker 2: I went to his inauguration, sitting there watching little Andrew

602
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 2: Giuliani climb up the podium at Chris Farley popularized on

603
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 2: Saturday Night Live. Those were great bits. But also David Dinkins,

604
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 2: who I did not support, felt was a horrible mayor,

605
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 2: was a gentleman and attended the inauguration to show the

606
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 2: passing of the mayoralty. And Rudy calls me up. He says,

607
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 2: I understand he got fired at WABC. I like you

608
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 2: to come over to WNYC, which at that time was

609
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 2: owned by the City of New York along with its

610
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 2: TV station. And when we said we got to get

611
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:22,520
Speaker 2: out of the business of subsidizing radio and TV, we

612
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,800
Speaker 2: got these two big sticks. I'm sure there are commercial

613
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 2: outlets that'll be more than happy to have them. I

614
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 2: want you to come over do a program. You know,

615
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,840
Speaker 2: they're all bent out of shape thinking you're going to

616
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 2: come over and just do it about communities. Nobody knows

617
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 2: more about New York City than you. I said, of course,

618
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,439
Speaker 2: we couldn't know everything about the three hundred and fifty

619
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 2: neighborhoods to make up the city. And I went over

620
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 2: there and it was like mixing among you with bleach.

621
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 2: They were all bent out of shape. Oh, very liberal,

622
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 2: very progressive. And the guy on before me, because I

623
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 2: was on from two to four was the cultural guy,

624
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 2: Lenny Lopate no longer alive, and he introduced me to

625
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 2: the audience by saying, and now you're gonna hear from

626
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,399
Speaker 2: the guy that was forced on to us by Mayor

627
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 2: Alec Rudy Giuliani, a guy who, uh, the best he

628
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 2: can do is read magazine covers and comic books. And

629
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 2: I said, oh, really, Lenny, huh, that's that's all I'm

630
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 2: known for, reading magazine covers and comic books. And then

631
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 2: he broke wild on me. He just he lost it.

632
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 2: He says, I know you. You went to a prestigious

633
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 2: Judguit high school. They kicked you out Brooklyn Prep. I

634
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 2: went to Eastern District High School. I lived in a

635
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,960
Speaker 2: coldwater flat where the toilet was all the way down.

636
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:41,759
Speaker 2: We had to share it on the floor. Guy went,

637
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 2: I mean wild, He went Ghettowamie. I lasted all the

638
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 2: seven months I could not be there. That was not

639
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 2: my place to be WNYC And I ended up being

640
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 2: hired back at WABC. He had to do overnights by

641
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,800
Speaker 2: a guy named Don Belucas, who is the channel manager.

642
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 2: Because the program director, John Minelly said, you will never

643
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 2: work here at w ABC and come on, I noticed business. Okay,

644
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 2: they come, they go, and I got back there, but

645
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 2: I shout out to Lenny Loped. You know, he was

646
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 2: one of the three moderators in that second debate that

647
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 2: broke all records in terms of people watching, the New

648
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:26,760
Speaker 2: York one hosted at LaGuardia Community College. You had Eron Lewis,

649
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 2: he was the moderator. You had Katie Katie hanland oh

650
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 2: Man mis pronouncing her name, I get it right from

651
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 2: the city. And then of course there was Brian Lair

652
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,240
Speaker 2: and they had it was a good debate, a fair debate,

653
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 2: fair to Cuomo, fair to me, fair to zor on

654
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 2: olthough that's the one he was schmitzing it. Remember that's

655
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 2: the one where we had him on the ropes. It

656
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 2: was a TKO. It wasn't a ko. And all of

657
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,640
Speaker 2: this leading into his inauguration and as I said, the

658
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:04,439
Speaker 2: song by the Class, the greatest counterculture band of all time.

659
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:10,879
Speaker 2: Should I stay or should I go? Hm to be determined,

660
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:17,240
Speaker 2: But this light of the Cheech and Chang album, remember Class,

661
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:25,720
Speaker 2: Class Class, and everyone shut up? Was that systema Mary

662
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 2: Mark and common Sita whatever, We're gonna have a little

663
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 2: lesson on Somalia, since everyone is a newfound expert on

664
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 2: the corruption in Minnesota that has come with the migration

665
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:44,839
Speaker 2: of refugees from the Somalian Civil War. It occurred back

666
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,799
Speaker 2: in the early nineties. Remember it was Bush forty one

667
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,720
Speaker 2: who was going to bring him bread and peace and love.

668
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden the warlords turned their

669
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:57,919
Speaker 2: guns on the Americans and we were at war. There's

670
00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:59,919
Speaker 2: no other way to describe it. Oh, it's a police act.

671
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 2: You know, it was a war. And again, Somalia was

672
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:11,720
Speaker 2: part of the Italian provinces then Benito Mussolini was before

673
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 2: World War Two. Somalia. Then there was Eritrea, always at

674
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 2: war with Ethiopia, and then of course Libya before Momar

675
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 2: Kaddafi came around with in his drug induced psychosis. They

676
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 2: were all Italian provinces. You know. I found out about it.

677
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,479
Speaker 2: I was gone to a Lady of Miracles rectory where

678
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:38,920
Speaker 2: the head preached, the monsignor was Father Siminetti, and he

679
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 2: had a big picture of Benito Mussolini taking care of

680
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 2: all the natives from and that case was Ethiopia. My

681
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 2: mother had taken me there because she wanted me to

682
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 2: be an altar boy. I did not want to be

683
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 2: an altipoi for a lot of reasons. You know what

684
00:43:54,400 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 2: I'm hinting at. But I was patronizing the monseie, your

685
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 2: father Samenetti, who was eyeballing me a little too nicely,

686
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 2: and he was explaining to me how Yeah, Benito Muzzolini

687
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 2: was a benevolent dictator. He took care of the people

688
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 2: in Somalia, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Libya. It would have been better

689
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 2: for them better. Wasn't he our enemy? Yeah? Yeah, but

690
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 2: there was a lot of misunderstandings. I knew right then

691
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 2: and there. I didn't want to be anywhere near this

692
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 2: munds in your father semene years ahead. He is one

693
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 2: of many of the priests that were found to be

694
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 2: perving yep, altar boys, in which the Archdiocese of Brooklyn,

695
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: Queens was paying out millions and millions of dollars. You see.

696
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 2: My intuition was, Mom, Francesca, my beloved mother, who would

697
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 2: go to the Olvina's, would go to the stations of

698
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 2: the Cross whenever cursed, would do the rosaries. Mom, I'm

699
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,359
Speaker 2: not becoming an altar boy. So I became a choir boy,

700
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 2: and you wore all red nuns took care of you.

701
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,920
Speaker 2: The nuns, they were pious, they were chased, they were

702
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 2: true believers, they were married to Jesus Christ. They had

703
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 2: the wedding band on. You went into the rectory. Boy,

704
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 2: the priests were ostentatious. Hey, you know, where'd you get this?

705
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,839
Speaker 2: You didn't get this carpet from Kalfumi carpet, that's for sure. Wow,

706
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 2: that looks like design of furniture. Trust me, never liked

707
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,839
Speaker 2: the priests. I always trusted the nuns. And that's where

708
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 2: my intuition saved me at that point from who knows,

709
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 2: possibly becoming another victim of that monster. But let's talk

710
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 2: him all about Somalia. Many of you became familiar with

711
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 2: Somalia when you were in your rock and roll days,

712
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 2: you know, following David Bowie, Ziggi, Stardust, You remember those

713
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 2: great albums. You wouldn't know is he that's before your time,

714
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 2: The Rising Fall of Ziggi, Stardust, Starman, Oh Space. Out

715
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 2: of these were great. But he married Iman. Whenever you

716
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 2: you're a one named person, you're like super spectacular. Sheery

717
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 2: Mom she was a high profile model for Hasace Calvin Kleines.

718
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,360
Speaker 2: She had been married at Spencer Heywood, the basketball player.

719
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 2: They divorced. She had been born in Mogadishu, well before

720
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 2: Black Hawk Down. By the way, that reminds me a

721
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 2: black Hawk Down. You know what that was the result

722
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:27,840
Speaker 2: of Bill Clinton was in charge at the time, and

723
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 2: he was seeking out the warlord Adid, who, by the way,

724
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,799
Speaker 2: was doing interviews with every network in the world. You know, hey,

725
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 2: we're out there gonna find a deed. He's right there

726
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,680
Speaker 2: in Mogadishu. He's doing interviews with CNN, with Fox News Channel,

727
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 2: to BBCHD couldn't find them, so they send the helicopters

728
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 2: in to get add the warlord, and uh, you know

729
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:57,800
Speaker 2: the disaster they followed. By the way, Adid's son was

730
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 2: in a United States Marine trans slater at that time

731
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:06,680
Speaker 2: for the Marines that were in Somalia. He had been

732
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:10,720
Speaker 2: raised in Long Beach, California. When his father died because

733
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 2: we never got him guests who went back to Somalia

734
00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 2: from Long Beach, California and declared himself to be the

735
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 2: warlord taking over for his father. What a mess. And then,

736
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:28,279
Speaker 2: of course the Somalian pirates during the time of the

737
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 2: smooth operat of Barack Obama so much about Somalia, and

738
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 2: so many of you have no idea where it is

739
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 2: in the map, what its history is. All you want

740
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,320
Speaker 2: to know is about all the fraud as you should

741
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:43,279
Speaker 2: want to know of what maybe ten billion dollars they

742
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 2: got ripped off from the tax bears. When we come back,

743
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 2: I'll explain a little bit of that, But then I'll say,

744
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:53,360
Speaker 2: we're not gonna stop here, are we? Because you know

745
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:56,800
Speaker 2: they're Democrats, they voted in a block they vote in

746
00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:01,800
Speaker 2: a block code language. We're not gonna stop here, are we.

747
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,360
Speaker 2: We're gonna go after our friends too, those that are

748
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:08,040
Speaker 2: supportive of our politics, those who have ripped us off

749
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 2: over the years to the tune of billions and billions

750
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 2: of dollars. Right, we are gonna go the whole nine yards, right, FBI,

751
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 2: all the federal agencies. Not just after our perceived political enemies.

752
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,839
Speaker 2: We're gonna go after our friends. Still want to bet

753
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:27,440
Speaker 2: we don't one eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.

754
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 2: That's one eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.

755
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 2: It's seven ten war. This is your new place to

756
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 2: be street smart, straight talk.

757
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 1: Curtis leewa guest host for Mark Simone on sevent ten War.

758
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 2: Well, all the talk is about Somalia and Somalians who

759
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:58,800
Speaker 2: migrated to America during the Civil War, mostly in the Minneapolis,

760
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 2: but some to Lewiston, Maine, where I saw them back there.

761
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 2: That was the site of the second Cassius Clay Sonny

762
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,840
Speaker 2: Listening fight. Although Cassius Clay had become Muhammad Ali, he

763
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,040
Speaker 2: all of a sudden was following the teachings of the

764
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,240
Speaker 2: nation of this almost sixty five. They chose Lewiston because

765
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:21,960
Speaker 2: they wanted to have the fight in the Boston Garden

766
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:27,680
Speaker 2: round two, but they were threats because he was now

767
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:32,360
Speaker 2: Muhammad Ali said, they went to Lewiston, Maine. God, And

768
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,359
Speaker 2: when I went up there after being in Portland, Maine,

769
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:38,080
Speaker 2: very nice town. It's sort of like a lot of

770
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 2: Samaralans there. And some of the same charges of being

771
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:47,959
Speaker 2: made of fraud investigations, mostly involving medicaid. And you heard

772
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 2: it all and seen it all. That young man Nick Shirley,

773
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:54,520
Speaker 2: who I've met many times, he sort of like a documentarian,

774
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:57,880
Speaker 2: did a forty five minute video I suggest you or

775
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 2: look at it. Talks about to ten years of investigations

776
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 2: that supposedly were taking place about no children being inside

777
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:12,880
Speaker 2: the building, daycare, universal childcare, money being paid out billions,

778
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 2: and obviously people getting lined. They were getting wine, dine

779
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 2: pocket lined in the Somalian community. And ilhan Omar when

780
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 2: elected had nothing, had belly button lint, and all of

781
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 2: a sudden, the next year she had thirty MILS. So

782
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 2: this is all good. We want this, We want us

783
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 2: to root out fraud because it costs you and me money.

784
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:43,080
Speaker 2: But does it stop here because it is a block vote?

785
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:49,720
Speaker 2: Remember the term block vote. Does it stop here because

786
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:52,640
Speaker 2: they're Democrats, They're going to vote for Democrats. It's a democratic,

787
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 2: predominaly democratic state. And for any of you you want

788
00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:01,359
Speaker 2: to get that governor one way or the other. Right, No, okay, good, good.

789
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,680
Speaker 2: If the investigation leads to that, good you gotta go.

790
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,279
Speaker 2: And by the way, the call is is that if

791
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 2: you are a naturalized Somalian citizen and your foul guilty

792
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 2: of fraud, you gotta go too. Well, you gotta have

793
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,920
Speaker 2: due process. But I don't have a problem with that.

794
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:24,840
Speaker 2: But now that was starting in twenty fifteen, is he

795
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:29,800
Speaker 2: twenty twenty? You remember the lockdown and pandemic, right, you

796
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:32,800
Speaker 2: remember all the money that the Trump administration had to

797
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:39,800
Speaker 2: issue unprecedented because our country and the world was becoming

798
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:44,800
Speaker 2: well dissolving fiscally. So the Secretary of Treasury was writing

799
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:50,719
Speaker 2: out checks, writing out checks, stimulus checks, paycheck protection programs,

800
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 2: moneies for businesses big and small to keep employees working.

801
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 2: Remember that it was like four trillion dollars. So we

802
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 2: did is what we always do in the federal government

803
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,360
Speaker 2: print money. That's why we have a thirty eight trillion

804
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 2: dollar debt that both parties contribute to. None of them

805
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,840
Speaker 2: want to cut to it. Are so four trillion more dollars?

806
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,200
Speaker 2: You know how much of that was stolen? They asked

807
00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:17,800
Speaker 2: the man about five hundred billion out of four trillion.

808
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 2: Were some allions part of the I don't know, maybe,

809
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 2: but fake businesses that were set up loans on behalf

810
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 2: of nonexistent or shell companies. That's a little sophisticated businesses

811
00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:39,440
Speaker 2: claim hundreds of nonexistent employees to secure larger payments, and

812
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 2: companies receive loans but laid off workers anyway and spent

813
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:48,920
Speaker 2: the money on bling bling sports cars and mansions were

814
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 2: some of them. Some allions possibly, but a lot of

815
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 2: them were people just like you and me that are

816
00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 2: listening now. Some of you, in fact, may say, oh, Curtis,

817
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 2: please don't mention my name. They haven't caught up to

818
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:03,799
Speaker 2: me yet. Yeah. By the way, they haven't caught up

819
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 2: to almost everybody. Five hundred billion dollars that was stolen

820
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 2: from the COVID money they had to be issued to

821
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:18,360
Speaker 2: keep to the country solvent. There was no oversight whatsoever.

822
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,919
Speaker 2: We could go back over that and say they should

823
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 2: have been, could have, would have. But that's not the

824
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 2: only thing. We got medicaid mills all over our Chi

825
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:33,560
Speaker 2: state area, three or four practitioners, high volume. They build medicaid,

826
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 2: not comprehensive care. You walk in there, are you a doctor?

827
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 2: Why you need to know? And they built us for

828
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,960
Speaker 2: millions and millions of dollars. And then the president likes

829
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 2: to say, hey, we're bombing more of those boats off

830
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 2: of Venezuela because you know they're bringing infent and on

831
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 2: it's killing like close to well, you say, the other

832
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,760
Speaker 2: day two hundred and fifty thousand a boat, two hundred

833
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 2: and fifty thousand people whose lives are saved. Such nonsense.

834
00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 2: First of all, there's no fenton All going through Venezuela.

835
00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 2: But I would say to the president. He was very

836
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 2: concerned about oxy contin and oxy codone. And a lot

837
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 2: of Americans died every year on that one hundred thousand, right,

838
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 2: especially annaplasia. A lot of Red States too, painkiller. You

839
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,839
Speaker 2: see that. You see that documentary, that movie you see

840
00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 2: dope sic? Did you see that one? I'm trying to

841
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 2: remember who we see actor? They did a great job,

842
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 2: Michael Keaton about the Sacler family, the Purdue Pharmaceutical company

843
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:48,080
Speaker 2: family owned, how they made billions and were responsible for

844
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:55,360
Speaker 2: the crime of the century addicting America the oxy conton

845
00:54:56,280 --> 00:55:01,800
Speaker 2: an oxy codone. Uh. Did they go to jail for that?

846
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 2: Is he No? Did they pay fines for that?

847
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 3: Yes?

848
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:12,400
Speaker 2: Did we send in F fourteen jets and bomb their mansion?

849
00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:12,800
Speaker 1: No?

850
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:17,800
Speaker 2: And there were a lot of Republicans that knew that

851
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 2: was taking place in the medicaid mills and through medicare

852
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:29,919
Speaker 2: in their states. Nothing was done, So no problem going

853
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:36,280
Speaker 2: after the fraud by the Somalis in Minneapolis and ilheiomar

854
00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 2: aploit or well, let's not stop. What about all the

855
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:45,880
Speaker 2: pelgrants that were issuing on Chi State area for students

856
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 2: that didn't exist, for schools that didn't exist. You know

857
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:52,319
Speaker 2: what I'm talking about. Come on, I know you're getting

858
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:55,520
Speaker 2: nervous out there. Look, this is Mark some own show.

859
00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:58,719
Speaker 2: He will be back in fac on the fifth. I'll

860
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:02,960
Speaker 2: be here on the second. So before we start pointing

861
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:09,239
Speaker 2: the fingers, let's make sure now that we go after

862
00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 2: all the fraud. Are we ready to do that? Or

863
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:16,320
Speaker 2: are we only ready to go after the fraud perpetuated

864
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:20,799
Speaker 2: by political enemies and not political friends? Huh? You see,

865
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 2: this is a question you get a chance to answer here.

866
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,799
Speaker 2: It's your turn to be heard. One eight hundred three

867
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:31,040

868
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten on what I hope is

869
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:37,560
Speaker 2: your newfound station for some of you who have been

870
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:41,880
Speaker 2: wandering up and down on the dios sevent ten, the

871
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,920
Speaker 2: Voice of New York, because it certainly is for me

873
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:54,040
Speaker 2: Are we gonna go after our friends, those that we

874
00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 2: know stole from us the taxpayers? Or are we gonna

875
00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 2: protect them because they'really aligned with us? There's gonna be

876
00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:06,640
Speaker 2: a double standard. I bet you there will be talk

877
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,280
Speaker 2: radio with Street Crab literally.

878
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:13,920
Speaker 1: Curtis Leewad joined sevent ten w R to guess those

879
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:14,760

00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 2: All right, my phone is blowing up, people saying, you're

883
00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 2: be back on the fifth. But there will be a

884
00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:35,000
Speaker 2: time and a place. I'm gonna set it off because

885
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 2: I know where everybody's bones are buried and who buried them.

886
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 2: So when we talk about this fraud by Somalians in Minneapolis, Minnesota, good,

887
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 2: let's get that money back. Let's put them in jail

888
00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,960
Speaker 2: if necessary, to port them. Let's do that from ilin

889
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:54,000
Speaker 2: holm Omar right on down. But are we gonna stop there?

890
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,640
Speaker 2: Are we going to look in our own backyard, to

891
00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:58,760
Speaker 2: our own communities, see in the Tri state area and

892
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:03,760
Speaker 2: beyond where those ripoffs have been going on since nineteen

893
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:10,960
Speaker 2: seventy five by different religious groups, ratio groups, secular groups,

894
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 2: what I call the industrial complex, nonprofit centers. Just with

895
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 2: our shelters here in New York City, you know there

896
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 2: are five hundred contracts that result in kickbacks. When Eric

897
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 2: Adams on the way out, crying, moaning and groaning, I

898
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 2: didn't do anything wrong. Seven billion dollars, he spent on

899
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:41,080
Speaker 2: the illegal aliens, no big contracts and his crony's got

900
00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 2: kickbacks on what are we gonna get that money? Huh?

901
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,960
Speaker 2: They're gonna go after him, of course not. And what

902
00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,920
Speaker 2: about comrade Buildeblasil the part time may have the dope

903
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:55,000
Speaker 2: from part Slope over five years one point five billion

904
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:59,000
Speaker 2: dollars on a fake phony, fraudulent PAGESI program called Thrive

905
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 2: that he had his gryftil wife Charlene in charge of.

906
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,480
Speaker 2: And I never heard one testimonial of one emotionally disturbed

907
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,320
Speaker 2: persons that were supposed to being served to say. You know,

908
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 2: if not for Thrive, I might have taken my own life.

909
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 2: I thank for it now it's a rip off. This

910
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 2: is just one of many Democrats and Republicans. So remember,

911
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:27,600
Speaker 2: don't just look at those who are on the opposite side.

912
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 2: Gotta look at your own too. Let's go if we

913
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:39,440
Speaker 2: can to murphew, I think he's calling from. Is that Pennsylvania?

914
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:42,720
Speaker 2: Your turn to be heard here at seven to ten?

915
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 2: Wor yes, Murphy, No, it's Keith, Oh, Keith, I see

916
00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 2: is he here? Spelling problem? Were you a product of

917
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 2: social promotion? Is he okay?

918
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 3: Yes?

919
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:03,760
Speaker 2: Curtis got a question for you. Any chance you and

920
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 2: Avery get back, because that was the funniest radio I've

921
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,840
Speaker 2: ever heard, better than Stern in his heyday. Oh yeah,

922
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:11,880
Speaker 2: that I used to do overnight with Avery. He was

923
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:15,800
Speaker 2: the board hop and we would do riffs that were

924
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:18,640
Speaker 2: very entertaining. That's why, you know, enough of the political

925
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:23,040
Speaker 2: talk it gives me migrating. So know it's maybe Avery

926
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 2: too will eventually end up here at w or right right, Well,

927
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 2: see that would be goodeah man. There are so many

928
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:34,560
Speaker 2: refugees from WABC, which is always bashing Curtis, probably doing

929
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 2: that as we speak. Let's go to Kathy's calling from Brooklyn.

930
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:41,400
Speaker 2: Your turn to be heard here at seven to ten.

931
01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 5: Wor Hey, Curtis, I just wanted to say that you

932
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:53,040
Speaker 5: know that most of the common denominator is Dems. The

933
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 5: Dems knew what was going on, most likely in Minnesota,

934
01:00:57,040 --> 01:01:00,280
Speaker 5: they did nothing about it because everybody was getting their

935
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 5: pockets line. But don't sound hurt, Curtis. Don't change who

936
01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:06,919
Speaker 5: you are by the way many of your so called

937
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:12,280
Speaker 5: friends and co workers treated you, and I and many

938
01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:16,440
Speaker 5: others believed in you, so don't disappoint us by turning

939
01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,520
Speaker 5: into the same two faced people who stabbed you in

940
01:01:19,640 --> 01:01:22,360
Speaker 5: the back. Curtis, Please don't change who you are.

941
01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:25,680
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I won't. I won't. I promise you

942
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:29,440
Speaker 2: that everybody listening crush my heart and hope to die.

943
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,440
Speaker 2: Remember how we would say that as kids, crush my

944
01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:33,640
Speaker 2: heart and hope to die. How many of our friends

945
01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 2: and our cousins said that just to play kate their

946
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,080
Speaker 2: parents or anyone of course my aunt and hope to die.

947
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:45,240
Speaker 2: I didn't love. I didn't look no, no, no no,

948
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,840
Speaker 2: I'm not going to follow some of them who believe

949
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:53,400
Speaker 2: that gold. Whoever has the gold makes the rules. They

950
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:58,040
Speaker 2: follow the money. Like Eric Adams. Oh yeah, the price

951
01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 2: was right for him to drop out. You ever admit

952
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:03,480
Speaker 2: how how many millions he gotta as he you think

953
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 2: they offered me? Ten? I hear they offered him double

954
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 2: that he dropped out. I didn't so extrapolate from that. Well,

955
01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 2: do you believe as I believe in? I know most

956
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 2: of you who are listening in the Golden rule do

957
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 2: unto others as you would have them do unto you.

958
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:26,439
Speaker 2: And it's not about following the money. Let's go to Pam,

959
01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,720
Speaker 2: who's calling from New Jersey. You're turning to be heard

960
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:31,800
Speaker 2: he on seven to ten wor Pam.

961
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:35,520
Speaker 6: Hey, Curtis, I've got a funny story, at least it

962
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 6: is to me. You know, those hosts that were mocking

963
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 6: people who like cats and calling us, you know, crazy

964
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:44,360
Speaker 6: and disturbed and all this and that, and they think

965
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 6: they're all that. Well, within a seventeen hour period, I

966
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 6: would say, Steve, you know Steve, he calls them like

967
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:56,120
Speaker 6: four to seven times at the minimum, sometimes twice in

968
01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 6: the same hour, and with a different name and a

969
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 6: different access, and they fall for it every time. I

970
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 6: have to chuckle about that.

971
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 2: No, you're absolutely right. They got no ear for that.

972
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:13,440
Speaker 2: Remember the first call I took here substudy for Mark Simone,

973
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 2: I realized that was a fake name and a fake voice.

974
01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:20,680
Speaker 2: If you've been doing this long enough, I've been doing

975
01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 2: it a total love in Uh. When the ball drops

976
01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:28,280
Speaker 2: in Times Square will be thirty six years doing talk

977
01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 2: radio in one form or another. You could be if

978
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,920
Speaker 2: you're listening, you see, that's the point. You gotta listen,

979
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:37,120
Speaker 2: and then you get these callers who will get through

980
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:40,040
Speaker 2: and you as the listeners out there, most of you

981
01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:43,000
Speaker 2: who will never call a talk radio program. It's such

982
01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:45,560
Speaker 2: a miniscule number of the call and really more of

983
01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:48,560
Speaker 2: you should kind of talk radio that I do. I

984
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:52,919
Speaker 2: really like new callers. I want adversarial callers. I want

985
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:58,560
Speaker 2: people who make you think and make you maybe reassess

986
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:03,080
Speaker 2: the positions that you took instead of the amen choir.

987
01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:07,720
Speaker 2: I mean, I know listening. I know he's listening right

988
01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:10,920
Speaker 2: now doing the show prep. Greig Kelly at w ABC

989
01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:13,840
Speaker 2: all the same callers, sickle fans. Dominic called it the

990
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:19,040
Speaker 2: same caller, sickle fans. Hey can't handle a negative phone

991
01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 2: call or the phone screen that drops them? What do

992
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:23,600
Speaker 2: you mean drop them? I want to hear what that

993
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:29,439
Speaker 2: person has to say, because sometimes you, as the host,

994
01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,800
Speaker 2: the host, that you have to acknowledge Now you got me,

995
01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:34,040
Speaker 2: you were right. I've had to do that many times

996
01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:38,480
Speaker 2: in my life. You see our elected officials they never

997
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:43,760
Speaker 2: say that. Trump never does, Adams never did, Cuomo never did.

998
01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:48,760
Speaker 2: That's so synonymous with elected officials will never acknowledge when

999
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:52,320
Speaker 2: they're wrong, or they'll never acknowledge like you just taught

1000
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:56,040
Speaker 2: me something. Let me reassess the position that I took

1001
01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:59,640
Speaker 2: to Oh, by the way, I had teased you all

1002
01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:05,480
Speaker 2: about that freak. Jeffrey Epstein and the number of shrinks

1003
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:10,880
Speaker 2: and psychologists now who all are self appointed experts on

1004
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 2: why this guy was such a degenerate with so many

1005
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:17,920
Speaker 2: rich friends and influential people who knew what he was

1006
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:21,880
Speaker 2: doing but decided to put window shades on their eyes

1007
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:27,960
Speaker 2: and cotton balls in their ears. And this one psychologists

1008
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:33,760
Speaker 2: who actually attributed to him binging on junk food as

1009
01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 2: a direct contributor to his degenerate, perverse way of life. Wait,

1010
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:42,240
Speaker 2: wait till you hear this. You ain't going nowhere. Let's

1011
01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:44,600
Speaker 2: keep it right here on your newfound station seven to

1012
01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:47,880
Speaker 2: ten w OR the Voice of New York. The Beret

1013
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:48,880
Speaker 2: is back.

1014
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:53,640
Speaker 1: Curtis Leeva guest host The Mark Simone Show on sevent ten.

1015
01:05:53,800 --> 01:06:01,320
Speaker 2: WOA, Big Story, Madre Telor Green No More. Trumper says

1016
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:06,600
Speaker 2: the final straw was when President Donald Trump was screaming

1017
01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:09,560
Speaker 2: at her over the phone how she could not vote

1018
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,800
Speaker 2: to release all the Epstein files, not because he's implicated

1019
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,960
Speaker 2: he's not, but because some of his friends are. Now

1020
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,120
Speaker 2: the question is do you believe her or do you

1021
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:22,640
Speaker 2: believe him? I believe her. And then out of the

1022
01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:25,320
Speaker 2: many files that have been released with us supposedly a

1023
01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:27,800
Speaker 2: million more to come right, Pam Bondi, where are all

1024
01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:32,840
Speaker 2: those files? What a liar she was. There's a psychologist

1025
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:38,840
Speaker 2: who waited in and said that Jeffrey Epstein is sexual freak,

1026
01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:44,680
Speaker 2: that his appalling sexual predations with the result of him

1027
01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 2: ordering all these young foods on Amazon that went to

1028
01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 2: pedophile Island. Now look at this list. See if you

1029
01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:57,000
Speaker 2: yourself have an insatiable appetite for Hostess ding Dongs, for

1030
01:06:57,240 --> 01:07:03,200
Speaker 2: Drake's coffee cakes, ring Dings, Twinkies, Devil Dogs, tutsiro pops,

1031
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:12,480
Speaker 2: and baby Ruths. She claims that his appalling sexual predations

1032
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:20,600
Speaker 2: could be culturally associated with adolescence and his massive need

1033
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:26,160
Speaker 2: to consume junk food, and she gets paid for that.

1034
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:30,480
Speaker 2: See tomorrow at the same time, same place,
