1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,040 Speaker 1: It's more a more mister New York on sevent ten. 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 2: W R. 3 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 3: Well, So the Guthrie kidnapping, Savannah Guthrie's mother, now they're 4 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,119 Speaker 3: getting things are coming out slowly, being released, very slowly. 5 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 3: Apparently neighbors did see a mysterious white van before the 6 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 3: mother vanished. Though, there was a mysterious white van that 7 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 3: was somewhere near the house. That would they believe it 8 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,919 Speaker 3: was multiple kidnappers, because you'd need multiple kidnappers, especially once 9 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 3: you have her. Somebody's got to watch her, somebody's got 10 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,239 Speaker 3: to go out and get food, somebody's got to do this. 11 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 3: A van obviously makes it a lot easier for a kidnapping. 12 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 3: So they did spot it. They're not saying exactly why, 13 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 3: but they believe it was targeted. They believe the kidnappers 14 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 3: knew who this woman was, knew that it was Savannah 15 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 3: Guthries mother. Now you got to figure that they thought 16 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 3: that that meant to be more money to get out 17 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 3: of Savannah Guthrie. It doesn't happen as often as you 18 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 3: would think where kidnappers look for the relative of a 19 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 3: very famous, wealthy person, but it has happened before. Frank 20 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 3: Sinatra's son, the most famous case, but members Calvin Klein too. 21 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 3: Nineteen seventy eight. Calvin Klein, who was as big as 22 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: could be back then, they kidnapped his daughter Marcy. She 23 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 3: was only eleven years old, then kidnapped here in New York. 24 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: But that was over pretty fast. I think about twelve 25 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 3: hours later they found her. They did pay one hundred 26 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 3: thousand dollars ransom, which would be like a million dollars today. 27 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 3: But it doesn't happen as often as you'd think, so 28 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 3: we'll keep following the story for you. Hey, Scott Besson, 29 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 3: great job yesterday testifying. Actually was the day before Scott 30 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 3: Besson testifying in front of Democrats in Congress, and they 31 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: were yelling and screaming at him and just awful. It 32 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: was just out of control beating up on Scott Besson. 33 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 3: But he was great. Then Elizabeth Warren is the question 34 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 3: we played to the ones yesterday, the nutjobs like Elizabeth 35 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 3: Warren yelling and screaming at him. Warren was more calm, 36 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 3: but Bessett was great answering her, and he kept he 37 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 3: kept saying, you know, when she's trying to say how 38 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 3: bad things were, He kept pointing out it was much 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 3: worse before, and he called it the Warren Biden economy, 40 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 3: the Warren Biden economy. Listen to this, So let me 41 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 3: make sure that I understand. 42 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is not saying that affordability what's happening to 43 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: families right now is a hoax. 44 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 3: He is saying that trying to lay the blame at 45 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 3: this administration rather than the Biden Warren economy is a hoax. 46 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 3: He kept repeating that Althrough's testimony the Biden Warren economy, 47 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 3: the Biden Warren economy. Hey also speaking of this, Scott 48 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 3: Bessett revealing things going on in Iran. You know, the revolution, 49 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 3: the revolt continues in Iran. We believe that the Iranian 50 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 3: leaders are very worried that the revolution will succeed. They're 51 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 3: already planning their getaway if they have to. The Iranian 52 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 3: leaders planning to go to Russia. I guess Russia. Putin 53 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 3: has said he will take care of them, and they've 54 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 3: come up with the plan. There's about eleven people this 55 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 3: Shaw not to show the Ayatola and eleven of his 56 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 3: closest people will go there. But bessn't saying yesterday. They 57 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 3: now know that these Iranian leaders are wiring money out 58 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 3: of the country like crazy. They're wiring tons of money 59 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 3: out of the country, which means most likely they are 60 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 3: getting ready to flee if they're wiring all that money away. 61 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 3: So hey, a lot of fighting about the shutdown, stuff 62 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 3: about defunding Homeland Security, which you can't do. Everything's in 63 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 3: that department TSA, THEEMA, Secret Service can't defund it. But 64 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: they're fighting. But this the other thing, Schumer's fighting about 65 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 3: his voter ID. Chuck Schumer fighting about voter ID. You know, 66 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 3: the Democrats keep pushing this ridiculous racist narrative that the 67 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 3: reason you can't have voter ID is minority voters don't 68 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 3: know how to get an ID, they don't have a 69 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: driver's Like, what kind of racist nonsense is that? If 70 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 3: you think about it, it's absolutely ridiculous. It's twenty twenty 71 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: six to keep pushing this line that you can't require 72 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 3: ID because minorities like they don't have IDA, they wouldn't 73 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 3: even know how to get an ID. They it wouldn't 74 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 3: be capable of getting an ID. What kind of ridiculous, 75 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 3: idiotic nonsense is it? But these old, old old dinosaurs 76 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 3: like Schumer keep pushing this, and they they'll sell you. 77 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 3: It's Jim Crow. You know, I don't think he knows. 78 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 3: Nobody under seventy five knows what the hell Jim Crow is. 79 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 3: They don't know what he's talking about. 80 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 4: What they're trying to do here is the same thing 81 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 4: that was done in the South for decades to prevent 82 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 4: people of color from voting. For instance, if you can't 83 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 4: if you change you're a woman who got married and 84 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 4: changed your last name, you won't be able to show 85 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 4: ID and you'll be discriminated against. If you can't find 86 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,679 Speaker 4: a birth certificate or a proper ID, you'll be discriminated against. 87 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 4: This is vicious and nasty. What the hell is this 88 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 4: lunatic talking about? You know, a lot of women get 89 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 4: married and they get a married name instead of a 90 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 4: maiden name. This happens all the time, every day, every 91 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 4: second they all vote the what is he talking about? 92 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 4: Bloomenthal making the same speech. You people in Connecticut don't 93 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 4: laugh at us for having Chuck Schumer. You got Richard Blumenthal, 94 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 4: who's is dirty and sleazy and slimy. As you ever 95 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 4: watched Blumenthal on TV, and if you have high definition TV, 96 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 4: you can actually see the slime dripping off him, it's amazing. 97 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 4: So super Bowl this Sunday. Bad Bunny is the President. 98 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 4: You know, normally the President would go to the super Bowl, 99 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 4: but he's not gonna go. He says it's too far, 100 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 4: it's California. But I think it's because that wants to 101 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,559 Speaker 4: sit through Bad Bunny and you know this bad Bunny 102 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 4: might attack him in the middle of the show. 103 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 3: Why be sitting there? The White House Press Secretary Caroline 104 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 3: Levitt was asked about this. 105 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 2: I think the President would much prefer a kid rock 106 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 2: performance over Bad Bunny. 107 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 3: I must say that, Yeah, I think so. So now 108 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 3: he's going to go to a palm beach for the weekend, 109 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 3: mar A Lago.

But when you get 132 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 3: a left wing wacko a Bernie Sanders, or at least 133 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 3: they've been in government for a while, this guy hasn't 134 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: been in government. He hasn't been in anything. I even 135 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: like a state assemblyman for two weeks, but that's a 136 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 3: part time job. It's not a full time job. That 137 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 3: state assembly is not full time. But he's never actually 138 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 3: been employed anywhere, had a job. He's never gone to 139 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 3: work nine to five, five days a week. You know 140 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 3: this guy, I bit you.

Entry level job mayor of New York City. 143 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 3: So he doesn't know what the hell he's doing. He's 144 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: just crazy, and of course he expects some left wing 145 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: cook stuff, but he is really setting new records. Everybody 146 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 3: is stunned at his behavior. This week, there's a maniac 147 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 3: with a butcher knife going insane in his house. The 148 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 3: family calls the police, calls nine to one one, ask 149 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 3: for the police to please hurry, get over there.

But he's got a 152 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 3: massive knife, like a butcher knife, screaming and yelling. The cops, 153 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 3: guns drawn, yelling at him, put the knife down, put 154 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 3: the knife down. They can't get him to drop the knife. 155 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 3: Finally he charges the cops with this big, huge knife 156 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 3: and they have to shoot him. Mom Donnie. Instead of 157 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 3: rushing to see if the CoP's okay, Mom Donnie rushes 158 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 3: to the hospital to visit the lunatic.

Are you okay? 168 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 3: But to rush to the hospital to make sure the 169 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 3: maniac is being taken care of, make sure the lunatic 170 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 3: is okay? Unbelievable, just amazing. Now, I think the most 171 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 3: important thing in November that we get Bruce Blakeman as governor. 172 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: Common sense does a great job best county executive, which 173 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 3: is like a governor job, best county executive in America. 174 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 3: You want to have Bruce Blakeman wh November. He's got 175 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 3: a very good chance. Hocel one minute she's pandering, one 176 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 3: minute she's caving in, either pandering or caving in to somebody. 177 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 3: She was terrified of. Mam Donnie and his army. Mam 178 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 3: Donnie has an army, a very effective election workers, and 179 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: all that stuff. And he's been threatening her that she 180 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: better fall in line with him, and she caved in, 181 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 3: and she has because she doesn't want his army out 182 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 3: there screwing up her her election chances in November. So 183 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 3: she's agreed to do whatever the hell Mam Donnie wants. 184 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 3: That's why she picked this real left wing lunatic, Adrian 185 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 3: Adams to be her running mate. Adrian Adams, the city 186 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 3: council speaker, a real left wing kouk. Last person you 187 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 3: want is lieutenant governor. Hey, and remember, don't say what 188 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 3: lieutenant governor doesn't anything. Governors go away a lot and 189 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 3: we end up with the lieutenant governor that a lot 190 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 3: of governors have had to lead. From Spitzer to Cuomo. 191 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 3: Spitzer left, he got David Patterson, who was great. It 192 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 3: was a phenomenal governor. So that was fine. But Cuomo leaves, 193 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 3: and that's how you got Kathy Hokeel, and so Adrian Adams, 194 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 3: you don't want her second in command there, it's just 195 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 3: a now. Hokeel finally got because she caved in, did 196 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 3: whatever Mom Donnie wanted. He endorsed her yesterday, he officially 197 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: endorsed Kathy Hochel. 198 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 1: This is an endorsement that I make as a reflection 199 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: of how Governor Hochele is leading this state, and that 200 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: leadership has included transforming the relationship between the city and 201 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 1: state from one that has often been characterized by pettiness 202 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: and making it one that is characterized more by productivity. 203 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it sounds very good what he just said. I 204 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: don't know what the hell he said. Does that mean, 205 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 3: transform the relationship between city and state. I guess what 206 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 3: that means is she'll do whatever the hell he wants. 207 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 3: Now he controls her. Now this is bad news because 208 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 3: he wants to raise taxes. The mayor doesn't have the 209 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 3: power to raise taxes, but the governor certainly does. And 210 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 3: that means they've made some kind of deal, which means 211 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,599 Speaker 3: she'll campaign saying no tax increase, no tax increase, and 212 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 3: then as soon as the election is over, tax increase. 213 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 3: Remember she did that with congestion pricing. Remember she said, 214 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 3: no congestion pricing is off, it's off the table, it's 215 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 3: dropped till the election was over. Next day, congestion pricing. 216 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 3: So she'll do that with taxes. Mom, Donnie give them credit. 217 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 3: The garbage got picked up a little late, but it's 218 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 3: getting picked up. Snow is still out there. The cold 219 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 3: is this what do you call this? Code blue has 220 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 3: been on nineteen days now. 221 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: This cold snap might end up becoming the coldest period 222 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: in recorded history in New York City. And it is 223 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: a cold blue here in New York City, which means 224 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: that every time a New Yorker calls three one one, 225 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: we reroute that to nine one one. We're looking to 226 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: bring everyone inside. 227 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 3: It's government. They're like these words. You would just say, hey, 228 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 3: it's cold out, not with them. It's code blue. And 229 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 3: we had a code blue here. What does that mean? 230 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 3: It means it's cold out. Now he's killed like seventeen 231 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 3: is it nineteen? Now? Homeless people because normally when it 232 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 3: gets dangerously cold, the city takes the homeless off the street, 233 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 3: whether they want to go or not. Even if they 234 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: won't go, they take them and put them in the 235 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: shelter because it's too dangerous. You could die outside. Mom. 236 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 3: Donnie made them stop doing that and leave them on 237 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 3: the street. And nineteen homeless are dead. It's hard. And 238 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 3: after the first ten were dead, you think he would 239 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 3: have changed the policy, but he didn't. 240 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: We are looking to make the outreach to each and 241 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: every person to let them know that there's a safe haven. 242 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 2: There's a shelter, there's. 243 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: A warming bus, there's a warming center at a hospital, 244 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: all of these different options. And if we deem them 245 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: to be a danger to themselves or to others, then 246 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: we do also bring them in. 247 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he hasn't been doing it, and he hasn't 248 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 3: forced them in, and he's killed a lot of homeless people. 249 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 3: But that's the way these left wing kooks work. That's 250 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 3: the way these socialists work. They tell you what the 251 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 3: goal is, they put in a policy that achieves the 252 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 3: exact opposite of the goal, and they never see it. 253 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 3: They never changed, they never blink. They don't know how 254 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 3: to bob and weave and change their policy. Like his 255 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 3: whole thing when he was running was concerned for the homeless. 256 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 3: He's now killed more homeless people than any other mayor 257 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 3: in the history of New York and he just keeps 258 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 3: going with the same stupid policy. Hey, if you love 259 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: Johnny Carson, don't go away. There's a new book out. 260 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 3: It's the best book ever on Johnny Carson. We'll talk 261 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 3: to the author a little later.

Nice to talk to you, sir. 376 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 3: Hey. Now here's the problem. You have a lot of 377 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 3: TV people today, talk show hosts, but they're just kind 378 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 3: of there. You don't have giants anymore. Back then you 379 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 3: had these giant, legendary TV figures. You will never see 380 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 3: another Johnny Carson, will. 381 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 2: We I don't think so. I mean everyone in the 382 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 2: nation at eleven thirty would tune in for his take 383 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 2: on the day. I mean it's been said that you know, 384 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 2: he really wasn't political because he didn't want to take 385 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 2: size and alienate half his audience. He wanted to do 386 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 2: an entertainment shown everybody passed through that show. 387 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, now that's a good point. The reason you waited 388 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 3: for that monologue. You wanted to get a funny take 389 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 3: on the politicians, the president, whatever happened that day. But 390 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 3: today's world, you hear forty seven talk radio shows and 391 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,719 Speaker 3: twelve cable news shows, so you've by the time it's 392 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 3: eleven thirty, you've had eighty seven thousand takes on everything. 393 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 3: What's the lates to do. 394 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 2: It's really different. He liked to not really take He 395 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 2: didn't really want to take sides. But I will tell 396 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 2: you something. George W. Herbert Walker Bush when he was president. 397 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: It was a secret. He was all set to go 398 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 2: on the show in nineteen ninety two and announced that 399 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 2: he was going to present the Presidential Medal of Freedom 400 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 2: to Carson, and Carson secretly told one of his writers 401 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 2: that he was playing in and voting for Bush. But 402 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 2: the Rodney king ryots happened, and President Bush Herbert Walker 403 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 2: didn't think it was appropriate. But a few months later, 404 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 2: after Johnny retired, he did go to the White House 405 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 2: and slept over with Bush, and his son Corey actually 406 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 2: played guitar in the Oval office for Bush. 407 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, there were a lot of presidents. 408 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 5: He was. 409 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 3: He was part of the Reagan inauguration, wasn't he didn't 410 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 3: he perform there for that? 411 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 2: Yeah? That was actually produced by Frank Sinatra, and whatever 412 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 2: Sinatra asked of Carson, Carson said yes. And Nancy Reagan. 413 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 2: The Reagans loved Johnny. But Nancy Reagan did call up 414 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 2: twice Johnny that she wasn't happy with some jokes. But 415 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,479 Speaker 2: overall they laughed. 416 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, But getting back to the point of bigness, the 417 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 3: Tonight show was so big with Carson. You know, sometimes 418 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 3: you're in a comedy club and they'll introduce the guy 419 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 3: and they'll say, he's been on with Jimmy Fallon fourteen times, 420 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 3: he's been on with Kimmel seventeen times, and you still 421 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 3: never heard of this guy. But in the old days 422 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 3: of Carson, he could make a star overnight. It was 423 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: a majing. 424 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 5: It was true. 425 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 2: It was the dreams. I mean there was unknown Freddy 426 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 2: Prince goes on the show, He's twenty years old. Within 427 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 2: six months he has the number one to come in America. 428 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 2: I talked to everybody from Drew Carrey to Louis Anderson, 429 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 2: and this was their dream. I mean they had some 430 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 2: of them had tears in their eyes telling me this 431 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 2: story about what Johnny meant to them the country. Not 432 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 2: only that, but the young comedians. In between commercials and 433 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 2: after the show, Johnny sometimes would get them punch ups 434 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 2: on their materials to improve their jokes into a young 435 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 2: comic that is like Santa Claus. I mean that you 436 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 2: can't ask for a gift better than that. 437 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a big feature of the Tonight Show 438 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 3: seeing the latest, newest best comics. Where did that stop? 439 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 3: I guess it was Leno that stopped doing that on 440 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 3: the Tonight Show. 441 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jays noticed that the ratings were going down when 442 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: they had committe stand ups, so they really stopped doing it. 443 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 2: It's I really feel like with David Letterman on CBS, 444 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 2: the Great Romano was the big person that got famous 445 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 2: through that. But yeah, it's a shame that nothing like 446 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 2: that exists. I really do miss Johnny Carson being in 447 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 2: New York doing the Tonight Show. I mean, he loved 448 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 2: the city. He'd be in Grand Central Station playing tennis 449 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 2: with Mayor Lindsay. He'd be in the Bronx having lunch 450 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 2: with George C. Scott because they were friends and New 451 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 2: York was dear to him. And I'm obsessed with finding 452 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: footage because we both know most of it was erased 453 00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 2: and Carson was furious. 454 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, the New York the first ten years of the 455 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 3: Tonight Show, I thought that was the best period because 456 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 3: you're right. He was in Jilli's, he was in the 457 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 3: Copa Cabana, he was all over New York. Once he 458 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 3: got to California, he'd go home and that'd be it. 459 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 3: He'd sit by his pool or play tennis. It wasn't 460 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 3: the same car. 461 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, New York was just I mean he had this 462 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 2: green Cadillac and he had a driver and on Sixth 463 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 2: Avenue he'd be waiting after the show and around nine 464 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 2: o'clock he'd come down and get into his cadillact and 465 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 2: go back to the un Plaza, or go to Danny's 466 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 2: hideaway or meet Sinatra, Buddy Rich. He had a really 467 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: amazing Like one time, this green Cadillac as his driver 468 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 2: had an umbrella because it was raining over his head. 469 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 2: Carson watched his green Catalog be stolen by somebody and 470 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 2: they're driving. The guy's driving on Sixth Avenue and Carson 471 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 2: is in disbelief. This guy just stole his car. So yeah, 472 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 2: that was a low point for Carson, but he loved 473 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 2: the city. He actually when he moved to California, he 474 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 2: bought an apartment at the in the Pierre Hotel. 475 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, people, man, I realized the nineteen late nineteen 476 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 3: sixties New York well was a dangerous place, even the seventies, 477 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 3: so it was worse than today. The movie Death Wish 478 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 3: that was New York. 479 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a tough place. I mean, Johnny would 480 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 2: have loved to have walked to work, but he definitely 481 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 2: would be a target just being famous in money. So 482 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 2: we both know Mark occasionally he would put on a 483 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,400 Speaker 2: disguise and walk around the city. He said he would 484 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 2: feel ridiculous, but the costume people with NBC gave him 485 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 2: this so he could go out with his sons. 486 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 3: Wow, so we're talking of this before. When I was 487 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 3: a kid, he w like, leave it to Beaver and 488 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,959 Speaker 3: there was the father ward Cleaver, and you didn't want 489 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 3: to be anything like that guy. That's not what you 490 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 3: wanted to be in life. But then you see as 491 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 3: a little kid, you'd see Johnny Carson's that's the kind 492 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 3: of adult I'd like to be that kind of personality. 493 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 3: That So he probably inspired a lot of people, didn't he. 494 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 2: I think he absolutely did. I mean, especially you know 495 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 2: during the New York days. I mean he was pitching 496 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 2: to Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris at Yankees Day. I mean, 497 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 2: he was jumping out of an airplane, playing with the 498 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 2: jets at the Polo grounds. I mean it was really fun. 499 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 2: And then you know he was at Indianapolis Motor Speedway 500 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: with Parnelli Jones going hundreds of miles an hour. But 501 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 2: there was just something cool about him. I mean his dress. 502 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 2: I mean he made so much money. People all across America, 503 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 2: young men would save up their money to buy a 504 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 2: Johnny Carson suit. He made fat the turtlenecks popular. They 505 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 2: were selling out all over the place because of Carson. 506 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, like James Bond would come in and 507 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 3: he'd have one great line, a funny line, one line, 508 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 3: but then you watch Carson. He could keep that up 509 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 3: for an hour and a half. He'd interview a guest 510 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 3: and have fifty funny lines. 511 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 2: So he had this ability where his brain there was 512 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: this joke file and he would admit that a lot 513 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 2: of those ave lobes were things he had used in 514 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 2: the past or had heard. But there was just nobody 515 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 2: that was quicker than Johnny Carson. I mean the jack 516 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 2: influence with the pauses when he would have animals on 517 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 2: was something else. He was absolutely brilliant. You have the 518 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 2: marsupial on his head relieving itself and Carsons look into 519 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 2: the spider going up to his arm. I mean, the 520 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 2: guy could do anything. 521 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 3: So here's the big question. Now, the Tonight Show was enormous. 522 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 3: You'd be a star overnight if you're in there. Letterman 523 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 3: was really a big show, and the late night shows 524 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 3: today are nothing like that. And you got to think 525 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 3: at some point they're going to disappear because network audiences 526 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 3: are getting smaller, budgets are getting smaller. Are we going 527 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 3: to see the end of late night TV at some 528 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 3: point in the next couple of years. 529 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 2: It really looks that way unfortunately. I mean, they took 530 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 2: away Seth Meyers, ban Cole Bear is going off in May. 531 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 2: It's tough. Johnny had eight writers at the most, sometimes 532 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 2: only four writers, and all these shows have you twenty 533 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 2: plus writers that they have banned. So I think if 534 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 2: the shows do continue, we'll come back. They're just going 535 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 2: to be really scaled down. I don't think we're ever 536 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 2: going to see an amazing doc Severance in twenty Piece 537 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 2: or Because ever again, which is a shame. 538 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and like I said, with talk radio, with 539 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 3: cable news, by the time it's eleven thirty, you've probably 540 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 3: seen fourteen talk shows already that day, so you really don't. 541 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 2: It's really true. I mean, it's where we are, Yeah, 542 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 2: it's it's something that I didn't foresee happening. But it's 543 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:20,959 Speaker 2: just network television. 544 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, in a while back when they took Jimmy Kimmel 545 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 3: off here for about a week, and during that week 546 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 3: they ran game show reruns and it got triple the ratings. 547 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 3: And I'm sure it costs nothing to run the reruns. 548 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 3: So when Colbert goes off, I would assume it's not 549 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 3: going to be another late night show. 550 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's hard to say. Byron Allen, the mogul, maybe 551 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 2: a billionaire, has been buy an ad time to the 552 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 2: twelve thirty slot and doing his own comedy show comics 553 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 2: on leash. So I mean, I could see Byron Allen 554 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 2: being he's such an amazing businessman taking that slot and 555 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 2: just buying it from CBS. But we'll see what happens. 556 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, everybody get this book. It's the greatest book 557 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 3: ever written on Late Night on Johnny Carson. It's called 558 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 3: Love Johnny Carson.

They 565 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 2: said it's north Fork. But I got to be and 566 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 2: Johnny's boyhood home. They asked me to autograph the wall 567 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 2: next to the mothers, brothers and Paul Riser and all 568 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 2: these people like Dick have it. It was an honor 569 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 2: to be there and talk to people and sign books. 570 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: I did something in Chicago at the Broadcast Museum of Communications, 571 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 2: and I'm going to be doing more events in New York, 572 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 2: so stay tuned. 573 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 3: All right, Well, let us know we'll promote him. So 574 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 3: when you do all these events, all these audience, what 575 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 3: do they ask you the most about Carson? 576 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 2: Just people just ask me what he was like off camera, 577 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 2: And the people that I talked to his best friends 578 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 2: consistently would say he was almost the same Johnny on 579 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 2: and off camera, which was shocking because the media would 580 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 2: make him out to be cold in a loof, and 581 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 2: his friends constantly would say he was not like he 582 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 2: was very shy and reserved when people didn't know him. 583 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: But if not, if he knew you, he was the 584 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 2: same Johnny. And constantly, people when they come up to me, 585 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 2: just tell me how much they missed the man. 586 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, now he was the same Johnny. But and he 587 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 3: explained this once. When he goes to work, he would 588 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 3: get kind of cold on the loof because you're there 589 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 3: to work. It's not a party. You're not there to 590 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 3: have fun on the air. 591 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 2: You're right, he would. Yeah, he would save his energy. 592 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 2: That was a big thing with him. He wouldn't get 593 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 2: to the studio until he been working all day, but 594 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 2: he would conserve his energy. So it might really look 595 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 2: like it's tense, and I think he might have liked 596 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: it a little bit tense everyone. He wanted everyone to 597 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 2: be excellent and really be on notice and put everything 598 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 2: into it. 599 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you'll love this book.
