But if you 9 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 2: go from talk radio to do TV, your success. Look 10 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 2: at Mark Simone.

Why would I want 19 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 2: to sound like all the guys? Why would I want 20 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 2: to sound like an echo chamber of all the guys 21 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 2: reading from the same talking points? You would need to 22 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: break out a tribute to one of the greatest of 23 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: all time, Lynn Samuels, Oh eclectic as she was WABC WBAI, 24 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 2: also the producer and phone screener for Matt Drudge, another 25 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 2: great talk show host who was driven out of the 26 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 2: business at WABC because he just wanted to do Sunday nights. 27 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 2: Did a great job. Oh no, you gotta do five 28 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 2: days a week. Guess what he didn't want to do 29 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: that They try to make him do it wrong. They 30 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: lost a great talk show hosts him who has u 31 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 2: It come a bit of an enigma of late But 32 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 2: I didn't even put that aside. Great talk show hosts 33 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: and that's how Mark Levin got his break to be 34 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: on five days a week because that was gonna be 35 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: the five days for Matt Drudge. But Lynn Samuels was eclectic. 36 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 2: Remember a theme song too, beg you didn't come in 37 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 2: with that fat bottom girls by Queen I remember that. 38 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: I mean she lived there off the number seven training. 39 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: I think was what side of Sunnyside she'd come in. 40 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 2: She'd be commenting on everything. She leaned left, but wasn't predictable. 41 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: You see, that was the interesting thing about listening to 42 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: Lynn Samuels. You couldn't predict where she would be on 43 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 2: any issue. It made you wanna listen every day and 44 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 2: listen more and more as opposed to again, if I 45 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,119 Speaker 2: listened to a show, I look, I know what they're 46 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: all gonna say, right, you know what they're gonna say. 47 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 2: What they say today, they're gonna say next week, the 48 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 2: following week. So whatever's on the talking parts they watched 49 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 2: our TV, they repeat what they on Fox News Channel 50 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: mod On. But anyway, I had to do that tribute. 51 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 2: I don't take for granted this thing of ours. A 52 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 2: lot of people have come before all of us in 53 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 2: order to pave the way for talk radio, and our 54 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 2: job should be with everything out there that competes with 55 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: talk radio now is to keep this thing of ours alive. 56 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 2: And I've been charged with that mission by my wife. 57 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 2: So you got to stay tuned and see what's gonna 58 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: be happening.

Yes he is. 60 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: He Guys and gals prefer to go to AI dating 61 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: cafes and celebrate Valentine's Day with their favorite their computer 62 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: with artificial intelligence. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it even dominated that holiday. 63 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: And of course we now must talk about the who 64 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: beat me Farren Square to become mayor and beat Eric Adams, 65 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: who wasn't man enough to run in a Democratic primary 66 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: or as an independent. He decided to take the money 67 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: and run and drop out. And of course Andrew evilized 68 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 2: Cormack Zorn my Dami. And you know, it's hard to 69 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 2: paint him down on a lot of things, but the 70 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 2: hardest is what his theme song is now. I remember 71 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: during the campaign he enjoyed singing waving through the window 72 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 2: from dear Evan Hansen, you know that song? Izzy. Of 73 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 2: course you don't hey later for that. And then he 74 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: said ostened to Donna. You know, I listened to jennif 75 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 2: for Lopez, you know, typical politician.

Everything is not going right. Just to be alive. 84 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 2: I have so much to be grateful for, so much 85 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,679 Speaker 2: as you know, any of you who know my history, 86 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 2: And if you don't, all you gotta do is go 87 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 2: on all the social networking at Facebook and Instagram, at 88 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: Twitter x your tiktook.

He wants to satisfy everybody. Later on, 93 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about Kurt Cobain's death. You know, the 94 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 2: age of grunge rock now, how they're reinvestigating that. They 95 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: never thought it was suicide. Never did, think Courtney Love. 96 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 2: Oh well, hold on, you don't want to go anywhere. 97 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 2: Think puddle of mud? Huhud? Did you ever listen to 98 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 2: Puddle of Mud? My wife actually introduced that to me 99 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 2: just the other day. Great ben never had heard of them. 100 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 2: You see, every day you learn things. Your curiosity should 101 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 2: be there. Lincoln Park, the suicide at Chester Bennington, he 102 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 2: was absolutely spectacular. Three Doors down the death of Brad 103 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: Arnold from cancer, kidney cancer at forty seven. That's why 104 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: today is the best day of your life. Look how 105 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 2: many of them are no longer with us, with all 106 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 2: the fame, with all the fortune, with everything breaking their way, 107 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 2: and things happen in life. Let's be happy you're alive. 108 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 2: I know for some of you, I'd rather be dead. 109 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: Well for some of you, that's because Zorn Mandami is 110 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: the mayor of the City of New York. What is 111 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 2: he yet? Forty six forty seven days since he was 112 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 2: sworn in. There's a number one problem with Zoramandami because 113 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: nobody knows the streets and the subways better than me. Collectively. 114 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: You could have put Eric Adams, Andrew Cormo's Armandami up 115 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: on any stage, and if we did New York City Jeopardy. 116 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 2: You know who would have won that game. That would 117 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: have been me overwhelming. They don't really know the city. 118 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 2: Joran is on a learning curve. He got hit with 119 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 2: this super spectacular cold snap where the snow turned into ice. 120 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: It's been three weeks and the snow and the ice 121 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: is still out there. How do we know because it's 122 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 2: turned yellow Because all the canines in the world have 123 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: decided to mark their spots on the snow and the 124 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: ice that still exists. But what I want to talk about, 125 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 2: specifically with Zarahmandami is the horror of what I've experienced, 126 00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: and that is the homeless and the emotionally disturbed, who 127 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: in many instances were not cared for in this Code 128 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: blue situation where they should have been involuntarily hospitalized, taking 129 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 2: off the streets, brought to a hospital, or brought to 130 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: a shelter. And by the way, nobody knows more about 131 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: the shelters than me. I've been in about two thirds 132 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 2: in them, especially imagine dizzy is he. There are shelters 133 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: that are called MICA shelters for the mentally ill and 134 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 2: chemically addicted. Now, if you're mentally ill, you think a 135 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 2: shelter is the place you should be, or maybe a 136 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 2: mental health care hospital hunt because that's like one flew 137 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 2: over the cuckoo's nests. That's Darwinian. It's survival of the fittest. 138 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: If you've ever been in the shelters, the worst for 139 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 2: the single males, the single females. Family run shelters generally 140 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: much better run, and there are a few shelters where 141 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 2: you're allowed to bring your pet in. That's good, but 142 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: the vast majority of them, it's chaos. So when I 143 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 2: deal with homeless people and emotionally disturb people, I've known 144 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: fee And by the way, they didn't just all emerge 145 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 2: now because of this cold and ice snap and the 146 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 2: Arctic weather. They've been out there all along. Deblasio did 147 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 2: nothing about him. It was heightened during the lockdown and pandemic. 148 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 2: Eric Adams did nothing about the enemy. Spent seven billion 149 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 2: dollars of all money on migrants, people we didn't even know, 150 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: put them in hotels, right, three squares a day. Write 151 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 2: your ticket for the homeless and emotionally disturbed, who are 152 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 2: for the most part are Americans, fellow Americans, and yes, Dizzy, 153 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 2: the predominant number of them are African Americans. So you 154 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 2: would have thought somebody like Eric Adams would have said, hey, 155 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: you got to take care of my brother's insists not. 156 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 2: And also these elected officials, they were all into hey, 157 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 2: you know, equity, equity, Well come you don't take how 158 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 2: come you don't take care of the predominantly black population 159 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 2: of homeless and emotionally disturbed, many of whom I know 160 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 2: on a first name basis. It is bad out there. 161 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 2: Zorn Stubborn just refused to remove them involuntarily, which was 162 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: the right thing to do, the right thing to do. 163 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 2: You were saying, well, they got dropping centers, they finally 164 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: put out warming buses. But he doesn't understand the nature 165 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 2: of the population. A lot of them are wanderers. They 166 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 2: don't want to go to shelter. They certainly don't want 167 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: to go to a mental health care hospital. That's why 168 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: they have to be involuntarily committed people who were deemed 169 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 2: to be a danger to themselves and everyone else. So 170 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 2: I was out there with the Guardian Angels still every day, 171 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 2: every night and giving them badly needed supplies. You know 172 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: those sort of like aluminum foil blankets that you get 173 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 2: when you finish the New York City marathon, giving that 174 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 2: to them to sort of water off the cold protein bars. Water. 175 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 2: They need water because they dehydrate, and when they dehydrate, 176 00:10:55,200 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: if they have any kind of psychosis or their bipolar disorder, 177 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 2: or if they were off their medication, whatever it is 178 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 2: that is mentally ailing them has just enhanced all that. 179 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: More gloves, socks, hats, sock hats we distribute them and 180 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 2: the handwarmers very important. Now we're just a volunteer organization. 181 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 2: You can see what we do. You just go to 182 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 2: Guardian Angels. You can see all the social networking what 183 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 2: we've done. When it got most extreme, I would say 184 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 2: about seven days ago, I now began to run into 185 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 2: homeless people who were without shoes, both in the streets, 186 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 2: the parks, in the subways and sub zero freezing weather. 187 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,119 Speaker 2: I thought, well, maybe one person, quite a few of them, 188 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 2: and I'd have a conversation with them, because I know 189 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 2: quite a few of them by first name. They've been 190 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 2: They've been out in the streets and the subways for years. 191 00:11:55,480 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 2: Nobody's done anything for them. Hey, Charlie, into your shoes. Well, 192 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,599 Speaker 2: you know, Curtis here on the subway. I kept the 193 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 2: shoes close to me and the stugs came up to me. 194 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: Are the homeless people, and they stole my shoes. Hmm, 195 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 2: stole your shoes. Sounds like jail. Sounds like what goes 196 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 2: on in the shelter Darwinian Survival of the Fitters. Another guy, 197 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: he was missing half a foot. It was exposed that 198 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 2: came from diabetes many years ago. They had to remove 199 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 2: half his foot he had a special shoe made and 200 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 2: then for his other foot, the regular shoe. They stole 201 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 2: both those shoes and I posted all of this and 202 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 2: then they did it to a woman too. It was 203 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 2: survival of the fittish Darwinian. The mayor his staff had 204 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 2: no idea what was going on. Part of the problem 205 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 2: was he inherited a lot of Eric Adams holdovers who 206 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 2: did nothing but sabotage his efforts. I mean, that's been 207 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 2: Eric adams whole goal, sabotage the incoming mayor in terms 208 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 2: of his learning curve. But he's not a street guy. 209 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 2: He's not a subway guy, and that was obvious. So 210 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 2: we will continue to help those who cannot help themselves, 211 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 2: the forgotten people of New York City. Remember the mass 212 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 2: majority of them are American citizens. The mass majority of 213 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 2: them are African Americans, and many of them are women. 214 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 2: And they live in the subways, they live in the parks, 215 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: and they live in the streets. That's their home. And 216 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 2: it's been that way with the Blasio Eric Adams and 217 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 2: now at the start of Zaran Mandami's run as mayor. 218 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 2: And by the way, I love this so well. You know, 219 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 2: the buses in the free. York Zoe Run said the 220 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 2: buses would be free.

You know when No Straight 225 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,559 Speaker 2: Avenue meets flat Bush. First off, the lines go forever 226 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 2: as you get out of the number three train and 227 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 2: nobody pays the fair nobody, They're all just bum rush 228 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 2: on the bus. And that's to a main street Flushing. 229 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: I posted that buses back to bed Nobody pays Webster Avenue, 230 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 2: of the bux nobody pays Highland Boulevard and set nobody pays. 231 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 2: Nobody's paying the bus fare. They say that half the 232 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: bus fares are paid. That's a lie. Just ask the 233 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 2: bus drivers, Hey, when's the last time anybody paid the fare? 234 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 2: And they have to stop and think our numbers, because 235 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: it is your time to be heard here at WABC 236 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 2: one eight hundred three two one zero WR that's one 237 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.

I love you, 244 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 2: you love me. It's like an episode of Barney and 245 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: make it stimulating again. It all started right here. 246 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: W R. 247 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 2: Barry Gray nineteen forty five took a call from Woody 248 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 2: Herman after playing stacks of wax of Woody Herman's Great 249 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: band Classics, and then the suit said you should take 250 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 2: calls from listeners. That's how this thing of art started. 251 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 2: And honor of Barry Gray, who began what we now 252 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: call talk radio, which for some has become many podcasts 253 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 2: because they never take callers. Never do one eight hundred 254 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 2: three two one zero seven to ten. By the way 255 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 2: up next, Valentine's Day with AI has become increasingly more popular. 256 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 2: Why do it with someone you know when you can 257 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 2: do it with artificial intelligens who will stroke you to 258 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: the ends of time. 259 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: The voice that fights for New York literally Curtis leewa 260 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: guest hose for Mark Simone on sevent tenor. 261 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 2: Na No Nah this is would have been perfect for this. 262 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 2: The AI dating cafe would have been that classic by 263 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 2: craft Work Computer Love you't me hear that song perfect 264 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 2: talks about the emotional void created by substituting human connections 265 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: with machines. So I noticed the phenomenon that had taken 266 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 2: place over the Valentine's Day weekend, and I had a 267 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: great Valentine's Day with one I love, who has been 268 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 2: the best thing that ever happened in my life.

Boy, 273 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 2: that was the toughest of the many cats. He's rescued 274 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 2: and adopted out and forced it out to bring back. 275 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 2: And so you see pictures of Tiny there. Tiny's a star. 276 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 2: It's gone virtual all over the world. And that's great. 277 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 2: And for many of you, you love your animal family 278 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: members and friends more than you do humans.

And yet these 307 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 2: masters of the Universe in Silicon Valley, Elon Moscow says, 308 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 2: don't worry, it'll be Nirvana.

Oh yeah, but it'll be nirvana. 310 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 2: There'll be abundance for all. It'll be utopia.

I guess the world's first 313 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 2: chat box was back in the sixties, if you really 314 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 2: want to be topical. But what do chat boxes do? 315 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 2: He is, he is.

Yeah, like FanDuel, 325 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 2: you know, bet money you don't have, which then means 326 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 2: you're gonna go out and try to steal money to 327 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 2: pay off your debts.

I pimped the ride of the great 407 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: Alan B. Combs, who created that Alan B. Combs no 408 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 2: longer with us. He was best at overnight talk radio 409 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 2: Theater of the Mine when he talked politics, I g. 410 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 2: Everybody else boring when he would get into the Theater 411 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 2: of the Mine and then he would do fifteen seconds, 412 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 2: and every school ball and nut job and Cucko La 413 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 2: Munga out there would respond that was really interesting.

How many people have 416 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 2: mentioned Alan B. Combs since his untimely death. How many right, 417 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 2: help pave the way? I remember you come down from 418 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 2: New Haven. He would go to the studios of Channel eleven, 419 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 2: the old Daily News building you know in Superman movies, 420 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 2: and at the top it was a little chicken coop 421 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 2: that was the radio station in WPIX, and he would 422 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 2: host the show on Sunday night. And when I first 423 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 2: started the Guardian Angels in nineteen seventy nine, he invited me. 424 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 2: I showed up a week earlier and I said, well, 425 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 2: why don't we do too. You can do me tonight 426 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 2: and then I'll come back next Sunday. And he goes, oh, man, 427 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 2: you're good. Alan B. Combs. He loved this thing of 428 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: ours talk radio. How few people mention him none, and 429 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 2: that's unfortunate. You have to pay tribute to those who 430 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 2: paved the way for what so many of us do 431 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 2: today and take for granted. Let's go to Vince was 432 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 2: calling from Florida. Your turn to be heard? He at 433 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 2: seven to ten. Woor Vince, Yeah, good morning. 434 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 3: You know, last week they had a dump of the 435 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 3: Epstein files and it was one that really kind of 436 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 3: slipped through the cracks that was really important. It was 437 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 3: a woman I don't remember her name. She's the chief 438 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 3: counsel for Goldman Sachs where apparently she had thousands of 439 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 3: emails with Epstein. Some of them were kinky, weird stuff, 440 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 3: but most of them were legal advice. But if you 441 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 3: look at the timeline, she gave him that legal advice 442 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 3: while she was the chief counsel for Obama's White House 443 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 3: starting in two thousand and nine. Now Epstein was the 444 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 3: restiedd in two thousand and eight, was before Obama. Next 445 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 3: thing that happens, she's the chief council for Obama, and 446 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 3: there's no way that Obama didn't know that she's given 447 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 3: legal advice to Epstein, and he was real careful to 448 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 3: say some of the emails, thank you for the legal advice, 449 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 3: because he's smarter than her, and he's smarter than Obama. 450 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 3: So he wanted to make sure that it wasn't just 451 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 3: kinky talk that they had. But there was also a 452 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 3: lot of legal advicee you know, you looked at the 453 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 3: timeline again and he was arrested the next time. Well, 454 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 3: Trump was president. Yet all these Democrats keep saying, oh Trump, Trump, Trump, 455 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 3: and really Obama helped him and then and Clinton helped Look. 456 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 2: Look, there's no doubt about it. The Democrats said nothing. 457 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 2: They were like Sergeant Schultz, I hear nothing, I see nothing, 458 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 2: I say nothing. When it came to Jeffrey Epstein, they 459 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 2: had an opportunity to bide in the administration. To Donald 460 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 2: Trump's credit, he not only kicked him out of mar Largo, 461 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 2: that's been proven, but he called the police chief of 462 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 2: Palm Beach County, where Epstein was residing along with Trump, 463 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 2: who had Mari Largo, and said, man, you did a 464 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 2: great job by locking that guy up. Man, that guy 465 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 2: said danger. Everybody in New York knows this guy. It's disgusting. 466 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: And most of these people after two thousand and eight, 467 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 2: when he was indicted. All they had to do was 468 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 2: google and come right up. So he was referring to 469 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 2: the chief counsel for gold mind Sacks. That's what it is, 470 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 2: gold Mine Sax. And she was like, she would refer 471 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 2: to him as uncle Jeffrey, Uncle Jeffrey, and she guided 472 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 2: him and gave him advice on how to deal with 473 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 2: all these sexual charges dealing with underaged women pretty much. Remember, 474 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 2: like Chris Cuomo, Fredo was advising his brother Andrew evilized 475 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 2: Cuomo when the CNN network was the was the Cuomo 476 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 2: National network, remember that. And he was advising Andrew about 477 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 2: what to do about all these women that Andrew was 478 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 2: perving on. Remember, and then it turned out that he 479 00:30:53,760 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 2: was being charged himself, Fredo, with sexual harassment and CNN, right, boy, 480 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 2: I want to do a DNA check the father Mario. 481 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 2: And remember what I said in the debate, Andrew, I 482 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 2: knew your father, Mario. You are no Mario Cuomo, never 483 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 2: known for that, never even in death. Those stories have 484 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 2: come out. But both sons and answering their pants and 485 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 2: they needed to dance pants. James Brown, you know what 486 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: they could have used. They could have used a little 487 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 2: bit of Saltpeter. Some of you old timers will know 488 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 2: exactly what I'm talking about when I talk about Saltpeter. 489 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 2: Up next, we must talk about what I believe could 490 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 2: be a breaking solving of a case involving Kurt Cobain Man. 491 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 2: He was so good and what they said was a suicide, 492 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 2: it may well turn out to have been a murder. 493 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 2: And I'm gonna use the number twenty seven, twenty seven. 494 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 2: You know what that refers to, dizzy isy, Of course not, 495 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 2: you're of a different generation.
