1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: Now the Red Beret has returned to radio. Curtis Leewall

2
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: guest host The Mark Simone Show on sevent ten.

3
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 2: Woo oh yeah, generic music upon my return, you know,

4
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 2: would have been appropriate, Dizzy Izzy if we to come

5
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 2: in with Donna Summer's classic on the radio. Huh. I mean,

6
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: the diva of all divas when I was the whirling

7
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 2: dervish on the dance floor at a number of clubs.

8
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: But anyway, the fact is, you come in with generic music.

9
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 3: Ugh.

10
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 2: And by the way, as President of the United States,

11
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,840
Speaker 2: announced that today is Donald Trump Day. Yet I'm sure

12
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: that's going to come up within the course of his conversation, said, hey,

13
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: why we call it President's Day? Why don't we just

14
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: call it Donald Trump Day? And all of his six

15
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 2: fans todies and lack his brilliant idea, outstanding, you the best.

16
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 2: You're better than George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Come on, yeah,

17
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 2: keep feeding that umongous ego that needs a crane to

18
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 2: get him in and out of the Oval office. See,

19
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna hear that on talk radio. It's like

20
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 2: an echo chamber. I love Trump. Oh, It's sort of

21
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: like it's like a Barney song. Yeah, I hated Barney.

22
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 2: I had to watch Barney with my sons growing up.

23
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 2: And it's just I'll get to that momentarily. Yeah, we're

24
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 2: gonna talk about President's Day. We're gonna talk about Epstein.

25
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: One thing I do give for President Trump a lot

26
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 2: of credit for is opening up those files. Although Pam

27
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 2: Bondy was, eh, we do all on my desk. No,

28
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 2: they weren't. We'll get to that. Oh yeah, and oh

29
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: wait a second, wait a second was starting to open

30
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: up the investigation of what was said to be the

31
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 2: suicide of one of the greatest guitar players of all time.

32
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna let you think about d I'm just

33
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 2: gonna say, twenty seven, twenty seven, twenty seven, all right,

34
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: maybe you can connect the dots. We're gonna touch it all,

35
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: Zoran Man Dami. The snow is still out there and

36
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: it's turned yellow, you know from what yellow snow and

37
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 2: all the homeless and emotionature.

38
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're gonna cover it all.

39
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: But whenever I do talk radio and I come in

40
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 2: to studios like here at w AWAR, I think of

41
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: all those people who are paved the way for so

42
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 2: many of us to just read talking points and get paid.

43
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 2: Because really, that's what talk radio has become. I'm gonna

44
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 2: get into that momentarily. But uh, the one thing I

45
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: noticed out of the that I watched with my wife Nancy,

46
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 2: the only thing I really liked. Although I liked Bad Bunny, Yeah,

47
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: I did like Bad Bunny saw on first time when

48
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: he did that duo with Drake and Puerto Rico. Good stuff.

49
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 2: The rest of you could have watched something else, you see,

50
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 2: that's the beauty of America. If you don't like what

51
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: you're watching or listening to, you have a variety of options.

52
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 2: You either turn it off or change the channel. Huh,

53
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: let's call variety. That's what America is. Free speech. It's

54
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 2: not one point of view, one way. This is the

55
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: only way you challenge authority. You question, you have curiosity,

56
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: don't just become a lemming. Unfortunately for many listen to

57
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 2: talk radio, that's what it's becoming. It's chased others away.

58
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 2: But I pay tribute first to Bernard McGirk. Every time

59
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: I did talk radio at WABC, the ecroonym stood for

60
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 2: Olwish Broadcasting Curtis thirty five years I would give a

61
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 2: tribute to Bernard McGirk because unfortunately he passed away in

62
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two at sixty four, should never have died.

63
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 2: He didn't take a PSA test, the simple prick of

64
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 2: the finger. So if we're gonna achieve anything in these

65
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 2: two hours, maybe we can save some lives out there.

66
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 2: There was this one commercial as amazed, I saw Glankowski

67
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 2: tight end and so another guy think was George Kittle

68
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 2: sitting there actual tight ends who played in the NFL.

69
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 2: And it said a PSA test will allow a man

70
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 2: to relax his tight end. And I said, man, this

71
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: is good because one in eight men will be diagnosed

72
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 2: with prostate cancer. And unfortunately, even though there are a

73
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 2: lot of remedies now, that didn't exist when I had

74
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: stage four prostate cancer and unfortunately I had my prostate

75
00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: out there weren't other remedies. I'm still paying the price today.

76
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 2: Bernard McGirk lost his life because he didn't get a

77
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 2: simple prick of the finger of blood test. Please, wherever

78
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 2: you are listening to this show today, there's nothing more

79
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 2: important than saving lives. We're going to talk about that

80
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 2: later on when we talk about Jeron Mondomi. His inability

81
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 2: to save the lives of homeless and emotionally disturbed persons

82
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: that froze to death. I know I was personally out

83
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: there with the Guardian Angels. You can check all of

84
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 2: that out on my social networking. But we paid tribute

85
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: to him because I remember the day he died. WABC

86
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 2: was never the same, never the same as he is.

87
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 2: He You were there, you remember that guy Knew talk radio.

88
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 2: Unfortunately for the others who remain, it's like a repetition

89
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 2: over and over, the same show, over and over and over.

90
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 2: The other one, naturally, I have to pay tribute to

91
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 2: is the king of all talk radio, Bob Grant. Nobody

92
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: was better. Not only was he enlightening and toltless things

93
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: we didn't know, but most important, he was entertaining. He

94
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 2: would give you a good belly laugh. When's the last

95
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 2: time you had a really good belly laugh listening to

96
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 2: Talk Creative? I'll tell you I get migraines. I got

97
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: a flip to EDM electronic dance music with my wife. Oh,

98
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 2: host of DM song starting with Chainsmokers. Don't let me down.

99
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 2: A lot of you did in the election. I don't

100
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 2: want to hear that tizzyzzy people come up to me.

101
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: I vote a few. If all the people came up

102
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 2: to me voted for me, I would have been mayor

103
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:29,720
Speaker 2: of the City of New York and we would have

104
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: been in better shape at this point. No, we'll get

105
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 2: to that later on. And then, of course this thing

106
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 2: of ours, talk radio was created by and when I

107
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 2: say talk radio, I mean taking calls from people you

108
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 2: never heard before in the radio, not the same old callers.

109
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 2: Oh modna my do I gotta listen to that guy

110
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: a gala again. It's like since one of day a

111
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: part of the show. How about allowing new pece people

112
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 2: will call in? Do you know that less than one

113
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 2: percent of people listen to talk radio in their whole lives?

114
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 2: Less than one percent of called in. And it's the

115
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 2: same people over and over again, and dizzy isy. When

116
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 2: we open up the phones today, you better not be

117
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 2: taking the same old callers. Or let me just say,

118
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 2: you will feel vibrations from me that will rock you

119
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 2: from your toes to your nose. Good talk radio. A

120
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: lot of callers different who disagree with you. Not just

121
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 2: a love fast. Remember how I said, Parney, you know

122
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: listening to the echo chamberon Oh I love you, I

123
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 2: love you, I Remember I used to look at that

00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 2: purple monster up there. I love you, you love me.

125
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 2: We're a happy family with a great big hug. And

126
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 2: it kissed from me to you. Won't you say you

127
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: love me too? If I had a forty four magnum,

128
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 2: I would have shot him right there and at our caa.

129
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: I think it was in ours a TV. Remember Elvis

130
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 2: did that, Yeah, that's right, Elvis did that in Memphis.

131
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 2: And then Talk told Red, hey go out and get

132
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: me a new TV. He didn't like something on TV.

133
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 2: Took out. I think it was twenty two or thirty eight. Bam,

134
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: that's what I felt like. It's like an echo chamber.

135
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 2: Where's the different thoughts we are, the different people challenging

136
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 2: what you just said. That's that's what must change. And

137
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 2: you know where talk radio, real talk radio was created

138
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 2: right here? Wor Did you know that this he is he?

139
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 2: Most people don't know that. They have no idea how

140
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 2: talk radio got started. Well, it was very gray right here, WI.

141
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 2: This was the DJ at night. All of a sudden,

142
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: Woody Herman called in after he played a Woody Herman

143
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 2: song and the suits were listening and say, hey, that's

144
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: pretty good. And then he started letting callers, normal average

145
00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 2: everyday people call. Oh that's even better, that's our talk

146
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 2: radio started. If you're not taking calls, then it's a

147
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: mini podcast. Guests. Oo far with these guests, you hear them,

148
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 2: you know, I sample talk radio at night. You can

149
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 2: get in on the podcast when I finish a long workday.

150
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 2: My wife says to me, are you a massochist?

151
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 3: I mean you really You must loathe yourself to have

152
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 3: to listen to the same discussions with the same guests

153
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 3: on four or five different formats. You see him on

154
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 3: Fox News and see it, and then you hear them

155
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 3: on the radio.

156
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 2: It's the same. They never break stride. I guess so

157
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 2: far any guests, you got callers and obviously the host

158
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 2: the hostess gotta do preparation, show prep. Yeah, two hours

159
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 2: of prep for one every one hour on the air.

160
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 2: That means I have to relate to you the listeners,

161
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 2: things that maybe you didn't know. So even if you

162
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,200
Speaker 2: don't like my opinion, you know, likewise, maybe if you

163
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 2: learn something. We just did that announcement, the PSA test

164
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 2: is gonna save people's lives, and you didn't have to

165
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 2: hear it at PSA format. You heard it from your

166
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 2: truly critics who had stage four prostate cancer. So a

167
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 2: lot of people who have said to me, well, what

168
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 2: are you gonna do? What are you gonna do? Now?

169
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 2: It's three months after the election, November fourth, little more

170
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 2: than three months, and I gotta tell you a lot

171
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 2: of people would tell me, forget, don't go back to

172
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,559
Speaker 2: talk radio. You've done it thirty five years. Nobody did

173
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: it better in New York City other than the king

174
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 2: of talk radio, Bob Grant. Come on, I don't even

175
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 2: come close. But it turns a longevity and of course

176
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 2: the great March Simone, no doubt about it. Man, that

177
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 2: guy's a smooth operator. Every time I hear Mark on

178
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 2: the air, I think of that shad Ay song classic.

179
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: I first heard it in the eighties and London outside

180
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 2: of a ray when I was patrolling with the Cardian

181
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 2: Angels said smooth operator by Shade Man. He is the smoothest.

182
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 2: But I have determined, after consulting with the best thing

183
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 2: that ever happened in my life, and I have restated

184
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 2: that a number of times. On Valentine's Day, you may

185
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 2: have seen my post and Nancy's post. We did it

186
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,959
Speaker 2: with tiny who was a cat and Nancy rescued from

187
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 2: a hoarding situation who would not socialize. We took pictures.

188
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: Boy Tiny has assimilated with so many other cats that

189
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 2: my wife and others out there have rescued over the

190
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 2: years and then either forced them out or adopted them out.

191
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 2: The best thing that ever happened in my life. You know,

192
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 2: people have wanted me to do videos, podcasting, a lot

193
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 2: of gen z's and millennials now following me. They invited

194
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 2: me to Yale University right for debate seven different groups

195
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 2: that went from conservatives to progressives to DSA, and I

196
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 2: came out of there after two and a half hours

197
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 2: and they were saying, well, you're the uniter, and now

198
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 2: who's lining up? We got Harvard, we got Princeton lining up,

200
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,640

201
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 2: is to say, yeah, well where can we find you

202

00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 2: don't listen to talkat if it's people fifty five plus,

205
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 2: And some people say, well, do the podcast for the

206
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 2: millennials in gend ze Is. They have an insatiable appetite

207
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 2: to find out more about what you do, Curtis and

208
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 2: all the things you've been through. What's y'all a lot?

209
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 2: I said, yeah, yeah, I can't do that. But the

210
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 2: other day my wife said, Valentine, say, he said you

211
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 2: got a mission. You know, everywhere we go, people who

212
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 2: are your age, Curtis, because she's millennial, your age, say hey,

213
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 2: would you come back and save talk radio? That's what

214
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 2: they say. This he is he because I gotta tell you,

215
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: especially those who used to listen to WABC, they'll tell me, hey,

216
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 2: I missed listening to you you on seventy seven WABC.

217
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 2: You will never hear my voice on there again because

218
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 2: they're always backstabbing me, blaming me for Mondami's win, bashing me.

219
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 2: I listen less and less to WABC and turn into

220
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: other stations. But I listened less and less to talk

221
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:23,119
Speaker 2: radio in general, and I understand it. And speaking of WABC,

222
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 2: they seem to have gone out of their way to

223
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 2: find anybody who loves to bash or blame Curtis to

224
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 2: bring on the radio. Andrew evilized Cuomo Wright, Hey, Andrew

225
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 2: I said, Tom, he too, so you prove your know

226
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: spatci man, you are boring radio. But he loves to

227
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 2: bash me. Now they're bringing on Frnando Martel, who I

228
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,719
Speaker 2: beat in the Republican primary for mayor in twenty twenty one. Yeah,

229
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 2: this he is because he's promised for two hours he's

230
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 2: gonna do nothing but bash Curtis and blame Curtis for

231
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: zorn Mondamis. And no doubt soon they'll bring the crypto

233
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 2: aka Bitcoin, Eric Adams Swagerman with no plan. By the way,

234
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 2: where did that million dollars go? Eric? First? Out of

235
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: the box? You know, the token token New York City.

236
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 2: That nonsense, A million dollars disappeared. But they'll probably give

237
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 2: me a job too, and it'll be one big echo chamber.

238
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 2: So stay tuned, ladies and gentlemen. It's time for me

239
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: to get back into the mix of talk radio in

240
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: addition to all the other things that I'm doing. Because

00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,400

00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,840

Speaker 2: of course. Oh god, you know how you have Trump

276
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 2: derangement syndrome. I think a lot of people are getting

277
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 2: Trump fatigue. Look, I've known Donald Trump for probably close

278
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 2: to forty years, a love hate relationship. Everybody knows that.

279
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 2: And originally when he was citizen Trump, you know, he

280
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 2: was always an eye and me guy. You could say

281
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 2: that about myself a lot of other people Alslim Shady, Sharpton,

282
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: Chuck E Cheese, Shuman. During the eighties, right, we were

283
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 2: like Lenslice, Right? Right? Does he is? He? We like Lensis?

284
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 2: Turn on the TV, you'd see one of the four

285
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 2: of us. If that was a crime getting publicity, all

286
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 2: four of us would have been in the same jail

287
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 2: cell would have been Donald Trump, would have been Al Slim,

288
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,439
Speaker 2: Shady Sharpton, would have been Chuck E Chee Schumer, the

289
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 2: Schmucker Putts, and of course it would have been Curtis.

290
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 5: Lye with.

291
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 2: But when he was an iron me guy, and he

292
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 2: put his name on hotels and casinos and buildings and

293
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 2: airplanes and steaks and neckties and bottled water. Okay, Narcissistic

294
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 2: personality disorder. A lot of people have that. You listen

295
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: to the mornings over at WABC, that's Sid Rosenberg. Narcissistic

296
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 2: personality disorder. A lot of people have that, and it

297
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 2: was sort of entertaining at the time, But now I

298
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 2: don't know my He wants to be on the one

299
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 2: dollar coin, He's got his name mitched on the JFK Center,

300
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 2: he wants Penn Station named after him, the Washington Commander's

301
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 2: new stadium named after him, he wants Washington Dulles International

302
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: Airport named after him. And there's a move to say

303
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 2: he should be up there on Mount Rushmore. That's right.

304
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 2: You know, the sixty foot monuments to our previous president,

305
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 2: starting with George Washington, Thomas Jeffson, Teddy Roosevelt, and of course,

306
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 2: Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, he had a umongous ego. Teddy

307
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 2: was all about himself, no doubt about it. And other

308
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 2: presidents have been that way. I mean, Calvin Coolidge had

309
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 2: a coin made for him his face. Calvin Coolidge one

310
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 2: of the worst presidents of all time, right, a person

311
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 2: of those consequence while he was still alive and in office.

312
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,439
Speaker 2: And then Hoover, you were responsible for the depression. You

313
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 2: have the Hoover dam the damn named after him. Then

314
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 2: FDR said no, and then Truman reinstalled it. So I

315
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 2: get it, these cults of personality, I get it. But wow,

316
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 2: this is extreme, and so many of you out there

317
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 2: all right, listen, Oh he's infallible. Guess what. The Pope

318
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 2: was never infallible. Donald Trump is not infallible. He's uniquely qualified.

319
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 2: He's divinely delivered. Oh God, enough of this. But we've

320
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 2: had a lot of bullshnizzle before the age of Camelot.

321
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 2: I mean, with JFK and RFK and Teddy Kennedy. Boy,

322
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 2: they would have been on those Epstein lists. You know

323
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 2: that if they were alive, with Effy Epstein, you know

324
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,439
Speaker 2: they'd have been on pedophile Island. Oh my god, they

325
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 2: would have had frequent flyer miles on the Lolita Express

326
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 2: from a team you a careport out there off the

327
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 2: Virgin Islands, no doubt about it. Yeah, we're gonna talk

328
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 2: about Jeffrey Epstein, you know, out of all finally, you know,

329
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 2: we get to Epstein files. Tribute to Donald Trump for

330
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 2: releasing them, because the Democrats never did. But you know

331
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 2: what we find out the Jeffrey Epstein's obsession not only

332
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 2: being a high end pimp for those who had the

333
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 2: same predilections as him. Remember, if you were looking for

334
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 2: adult women exotic, you went to Jeffrey Epstein. If you

335
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 2: were looking for kids, you went to Jeffrey Epstein. But

336
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 2: apparently his predilection that topped all other of the Cicola

337
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 2: predilections that he and his followers had was he only

338
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,679
Speaker 2: ate beef jerkey and it had to be the inner

339
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 2: Mongolian style. So out of the millions and millions of

340
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 2: page pers worth of files that have been dropped, finally

341
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 2: by Pam Bondi, who said, oh, they're all on my desk,

342
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 2: but she lied. Susie Wilds, the chief of staff, said, hey,

343
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 2: she lied about that. We finally got most of it.

344
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 2: And we find out that he would fly a chef

345
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 2: in from Long Island because all he would eat was

346
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,360
Speaker 2: beef jerky. So with all these dinners that he hosted

347
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 2: or he attended, am I to believe that on his

348
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 2: plate was beef jerky? Really? And people didn't look at

349
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 2: that and say, man, this guy is freaky, deeky. He's

350
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 2: a sicola. Just from that so much more. And I

351
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 2: got to say, for all of these people, they reminded

352
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 2: me of Sogean Schultz. You remember Hogan's Heroes Stalog thirteen.

353
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 2: I see nothing, I hear nothing, I know nothing, this

354
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 2: even after two thousand and eight when for pedophilia. And

355
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 2: I gotta give credit to Donald Trump on this. Donald Trump, apparently,

356
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 2: in a phone call to the Palm Beach police chief

357
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 2: at the time, said everyone knows about Jeffrey Epstein's aberink behavior.

358
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 2: I threw him out of the club marl Largo. People

359
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 2: in New York knew he was disgusting. Yeah they did,

360
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:33,760
Speaker 2: and yet they still did business with him, especially Steve Tish,

361
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 2: co owner of the Giants, who loved those babies got back.

362
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you see you should have the sir

363
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 2: mix a lock song Baby Got Back. I like big

364
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 2: butts and I cannot lie. And that's why Steve Tish

365
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 2: would go to Jeffrey Epstein hook me up with Baby

366
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 2: Got Back. But I didn't do nothing wrong, trying to

367
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 2: light up those phones to be heard here on your

368
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 2: newfound station, WOOR one eight hundred three two one zero.

00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,360

370
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 2: The Beret is back.

Speaker 2: Back to save talk radio. That's the mission I've been

374
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 2: given so many people telling me, Oh, you gotta come back,

375
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 2: you gotta come back on the air. This stuff is

376
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 2: killing me out there. You know, like a guy like

377
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,120
Speaker 2: Greg Kelly over at WABC, what's he gonna do? Mark

378
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 2: Simones away today, he will be back tomorrow. And that's

379
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 2: Greg Kelly show prep. Without Mark Simone, He's got to

380
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 2: have nothing to talk about. He basically repeats everything that

381
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 2: Mark said on his show. Oh enough enough, we gotta

382
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 2: go to the phones. I promised you that. Let's go

402
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 2: of this, I would have voted for you, Dizzy, Izzy,

403
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 2: if everybody who's come up to me in the subways

Speaker 2: and streets because I'm there every day, uh oh, I

00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 2: voted for you. If they had voted for me, I

406
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,160
Speaker 2: would have been the mayor of the City of New York,

407
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:12,920
Speaker 2: and we would have been in a much better shape. Right,

408
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 2: But please don't glaze me. Wait a second, that's that's

409
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: for the millennials and gen zee Is people who of

410
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 2: my generation, right, you baby boomers out there, you probably

411
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,880
Speaker 2: think I'm talking about glaze doughnuts. No, no, no, that's

412
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 2: the term that has made me uber popular with the

413
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 2: millennials in gen z Is. I say, don't be glazing me,

414
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 2: because a lot of people do, and on this format here,

415
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 2: wr don't be glazing me. Huh, don't be pulling my

416
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 2: chain and chewing my shorts. That's the way we would

417
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 2: have said it in the old neighborhood. By the way, curling,

418
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 2: you know, Olympic sport, Winter Olympic sport couldn't be any

419
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,919
Speaker 2: more boring, like some of talk radio I've listened to lately,

420
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 2: And so my wife was asking me about It's like Bacchi.

421
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 2: You know, my grandfather if he Dela Bianchino played Bacci

422
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 2: with the other gumbas in Keanarsi, you know, they'd be

423
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 2: smoking a crooked Italian cigars at Deanobla. They'd be speaking

424
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 2: their dialect, cursing one another. It was boring with Bacci

425
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 2: it's boring with curling. Oh we got to under this

426
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 2: boring repetition of talk radio. It's like, God, be curious,

427
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 2: challenge your doughty, ask questions. Don't be sickle fans Tody's

428
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 2: and lackeys and allow for other points of you to

429
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 2: be hurt. That's the American way. Let's go to Chris,

430
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 2: who was calling from Beth Page. Your turn to be

431
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 2: heard here seven to ten w or R Chris.

432
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 7: Hey, Curtis, I got even money back with a friend

433
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 7: that somehow Steve from Manhattan sneaks onto the air in

434
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,479
Speaker 7: some way today anyhow, But I know you're good at

435
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:58,239
Speaker 7: rooting him out anyhow, Curtis. The reason I called was

436
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 7: I vote it for Trump. I like Trump, and I

437
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 7: disagree with you most of us, i'd say, like nine

438
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 7: of us. Aren't these lackeys that everything he says, we

439
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,239
Speaker 7: think he's stupid a lot of stuff. We voted for

440
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 7: his policies. He's got great economic policies. He closed the border.

441
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 7: Gas is cheaper. You know, you can go on and

442
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 7: on with his great policies. He's a great president, I think,

443
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 7: but he's not a good human being. I'm sorry. I

444
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 7: would never hang out with the guy. He sounds like

445
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 7: a more on half the time. But I like his

446
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 7: policies and that's what we voth.

447
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 2: Well, no, that's that's extraordinarily fair Chris like wanting to

448
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 2: take over Canada, wanting to take over Greenland. Like, really,

449
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 2: do you think if he had said that, let's say,

450
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 2: in the campaign against first Biden and then Harris, the

451
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 2: bifer kated campaign. Do you think if he had said, Oh,

452
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 2: when I become president, we're going to take over Canada,

453
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 2: We're going to take over Greenland. Do you think he

454
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 2: would have won that in an election?

455
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 7: Not at all? Okill no, But that's but that's him,

456
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 7: you know, him art of the deal, hung out with them,

457
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 7: you know his deal. He tells what he can to

458
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 7: get what he wants and then he goes bat so

459
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 7: and that's you know, I do that, I know.

460
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,199
Speaker 2: But but you see the problem is now, if you

461
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 2: believe that we have to have balance in government and

462
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 2: Republicans and I am a Republican, we need to win

463
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 2: the midterm elections, those kinds of attitudes are going to

464
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 2: be hurtful to the ability to maintain the majority. And

465
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 2: you know, if the Democrats hakem jeffrees becomes a speaker.

466
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 2: He loves for that. You imagine the schmuck to putch

467
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 2: CHUCKI Chi Shumer returning his majority leader of the Senate.

468
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that guy is an advertisement for term limits.

469
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 2: And it's not just him. They're Republicans senators there. What

470
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 2: are they going to be one hundred years old until death?

471
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 2: Do us part term limits for everyone? Let's go if

472
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 2: we can to. At this point, I believe it is

473
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 2: Sophie who was calling from Connecticut, your turn to be

474
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 2: heard here on seven ten.

475
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 5: Wo Sophie, good morning, Courtis. We spoke years and years ago.

476
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 5: I am also Polish that you have Polish in Connecticut,

477
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 5: as you know. The reason I'm calling I listening to

478
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 5: what was happening the election and how wrong it was.

479
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 5: And I'm very concerned about the power of w ABC

480
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 5: owner into this whole election and political issues, even this morning.

481
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 2: I know, Sophie, they bashed me all the time. It's

482
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 2: over three months. Dominic Carter wouldn't have a show unless

483
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 2: he spent half of it bashing me and blaming me

484
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 2: for Johann Mandami. And they had no imp First, they

485
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 2: supported Eric Adams right the Swagerman with no plan to cook.

486
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 2: Then they supported Andrew evilized Coomo Facha Brutta and he

487
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 2: lost too. So don't think they're all that powerful. I

488
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 2: gotta tell you just based on the people who come

489
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 2: up to me who identify themselves as WABC listeners, they say,

490
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 2: I miss you on WABC. Okay, I get that. And

491
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 2: since the mayor's race has ended, I listened less and

492
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 2: less to WABC and tune into other stations. And that's true.

493
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 2: You look at the ratings they have plummeted at WABC.

494
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 2: Time spent listening is down noticeably. They run around pat

495
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 2: each other on the back so hard they'll have to

496
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 2: go for a chiropractic adjustment. But it's not good talk radio,

497
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 2: it really is. That's why my wife has finally said

498
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 2: to me, your job is to get back into action

499
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 2: and that thing that you've done for thirty five years,

500
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 2: talk radio with everything else that I'll be doing because

501
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 2: I have a mission to save talk radio and make

502
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 2: it compelling and interesting and non predictable. Why should I

503
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 2: listen to a show today what I know they're gonna

504
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 2: say the same thing today that they said last week,

505
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 2: that they're gonna say next week, which is ball the

506
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 2: Bulse of New York.

507
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 1: On the Voice of New York It Curtis Sleiewald guest

508
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: host for Marximon on seven ten Woo.

509
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 8: You know, for thirty five years I was the Voice

510
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 8: of New York over at WABC. It was always broadcasting Curtis,

511
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 8: and then it's turned into nothing more but always bashing Curtis,

512
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 8: always blaming Curtis for jarn Mondamie winning the mayoral election.

513
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 8: We'll deal with Zaron up next. But I was also

514
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 8: like the Quay's eye pro director there for many years.

515
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 8: Because I would listen, I would get constructive criticism. I had,

516
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 8: you know, dizzy is he. The Curtics Slee were boot

517
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 8: camp for talk radio show hosts had to cause when

518
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 8: you're starting TV, because there's some people in talk creadio.

519
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 8: They have no business being in talk creator they're starting

520
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 8: on TV.

521
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 2: Then they go to radio. It just doesn't work. You're

522
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 2: used to highly produced segments, teleprompters, no improv it's dull.

523
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 2: Greg Kelly is an example of that. He's lost without

524
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 2: a teleprompter. Dominic carter Man, he was like special ed

525
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 2: when it came to this, Well, I'm a journalist. I'm

526
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 2: a journalists, and I say, you ain't no journalists no more.

527
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 2: You're a talk radio show host. You got to have

528
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 2: an opinion. You remember that at Dizzy is He the

529
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 2: guy couldn't have an opinion. He wouldn't be on WABC

530
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 2: if not for me. But as part of that Curtis

531
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 2: Slie boot camp for talk radio show hosts at Dominic Carter,

532
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 2: he was my primary focus. And I had to get

533
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 2: Frank moronalds now the counselor and from South Beach, Staten Island,

534
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 2: doing a great job by my dad. I had to

535
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 2: get him back on the beam he needed. He needed

536
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 2: a little help there, a little realmdio help. And then

537
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: we had Richie Valdez, the liberty loving Latino, great talk

538
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 2: show hosts. I was mentoring him and then they got

539
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 2: rid of him there WABC, And I said to myself,

540
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 2: are you kidding how many Latino voices and Latino voices

541
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 2: are there in what we call Anglo talk radio? Right?

542
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 2: Almost not what guys gone on have syndicated talk radio

543
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:37,719
Speaker 2: programs across the nation, out across the world. Well, I

544
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 2: did my job as a program director, but now I'm

545
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 2: a talk show host who is so help bent on

546
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 2: saving this thing of ours talk radio.

547
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: Now the guardian Angel of talk radio is here. Curtis

Speaker 1: Sleewah guest host the Mark Simone Show on seven ten wo.

549

550
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 2: is my final hour substitution for Mark Simon. By the way,

551
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 2: smooth operator, Mark Simone. Based on what I last said

552
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,240
Speaker 2: as we went out on the top of the hour.

553
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 2: When you go and talk radio from doing talk TV

554
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 2: to talk radio, you're always a disaster. But if you

555
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 2: go from talk radio to do TV, your a success.

556
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 2: Look at Mark Simone. He made the transition and the

557
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,720
Speaker 2: rock rabbed all American Conservative voice sub region from Franklin Square,

558
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 2: Long Island, Sean Hannity Radio first and TV. It's different.

559
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 2: It's totally different. And you don't hear many talk show hostesses.

560
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 2: Now if in this season of You, you must refer

561
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 2: to me as I identify myself today, he is he?

562
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 2: So I could be a he she? They right, Let's

563
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 2: just say I felt like a woman today and I

564
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 2: was a female hostess talk show. Why would I want

565
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 2: to sound like all the guys? Why would I want

566
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 2: to sound like an echo chamber of all the guys

567
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 2: reading from the same talking points, you would need to

568
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 2: break out a tribute to one of the greatest of

569
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 2: all time, Lynn Samuels, oh eclectic as she was WABC WBAI,

570
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 2: also the producer and phone screener for Matt Drudge, another

571
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 2: great talk show host who was driven out of the

572
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 2: business at WABC because he just wanted to do Sunday nights.

573
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 2: Did a great job. Oh no, you got to do

574
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 2: five days a week. Guess what he didn't want to

575
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 2: do that. They tried to make him do it wrong.

576
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 2: They lost a great talk show hosts, sim who has

577
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,479
Speaker 2: come a bit of an enigma of late. I didn't

578
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 2: even put that aside. Great talk show hosts, and that's

579
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,280
Speaker 2: how Mark Levin got his break to be on five

580
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 2: days a week, because that was gonna be the five

581
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 2: days for Matt Drudge. But Lynn Samuels was eclectic. Remember

582
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 2: a theme song too bed you didn't come in with

583
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: that fat bottom girls by Queen? I remember that? I

584
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 2: mean she lived there off the number seven training I

585
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 2: think was which side of Sunnyside she'd come in. She'd

586
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 2: be commenting on everything. She leaned left, but wasn't predictable.

587
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 2: You see, that was The interesting thing about listening to

588
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 2: Lynn Samuels say you couldn't predict where she would be

589
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:38,439
Speaker 2: on any issue. It made you wanna listen every day

590
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,839
Speaker 2: and listen more and more as opposed to again, if

591
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 2: I listened to a show, I look, I know what

592
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 2: they're all gonna say. Right, you know what they're gonna say.

593
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 2: What they say today, they're gonna say next week, the

594
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,760
Speaker 2: following week. So whatever's on the talking points they watched

595
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,560
Speaker 2: our TV, they repeat what they on Fox News Channel

596
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 2: mod On. But anyway, I had to do that tript

597
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 2: I don't take for granted this thing of ours. A

598
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 2: lot of people have come before all of us in

599
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 2: order to pave the way for talk radio, and our

600
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 2: job should be with everything out there that competes with

601
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 2: talk radio now is to keep this thing of ours alive.

602
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 2: And I've been charged with that mission by my wife.

603
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 2: So you got to stay tuned and see what's going

604
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,400
Speaker 2: to be happening. Also going to be talking about how

605
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 2: this Valentine's Day for the first time ever, Yes is

606
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 2: he is? He? Guys and gals preferred to go to

607
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 2: AI dating cafes and celebrate Valentine's Day with their favorite

608
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:43,799
Speaker 2: their computer with artificial intelligence. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it even

609
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 2: dominated that holiday. And of course we now must talk

610
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 2: about the man who beat me Farren Square to become

611
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: mayor and beat Eric Adams, who wasn't man enough to

612
00:37:55,280 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 2: run in a Democratic primary or as an independent. He

613
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 2: decided to take the money and run and drop out.

614
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 2: And of course Andrew evilized Cormack Zorn my Dami And

615
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 2: you know, it's hard to paint him down on a

616
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,720
Speaker 2: lot of things, but the hardest is what his theme

617
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 2: song is now. I remember during the campaign he enjoyed

618
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 2: singing waving through the window from Dear Evan Hansen, you

619
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 2: know that song. Izzy. Of course you don't hey later

620
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,280
Speaker 2: for that. And then he said, oh I listened to Donna,

621
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 2: you know, I listened to Jennith for Lopez, you know,

622
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 2: typical politician. He wanted to pay props to everybody for me.

623
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 2: It was straight up chain smokers. Don't let me down

624
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 2: because a lot of people did. They didn't vote for me.

625
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 2: And then bunt a German edm band. Today is the

626
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 2: greatest day in my life. It is every day that

627
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 2: I wake up. It should be for all of you,

628
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 2: even though it's facing You could be a curmudgeon. They

629
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 2: could be great clouds over your head. Everything is not

630
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 2: going right. Just to be alive. I have so much

631
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 2: to be grateful for, so much as you know, any

632
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,479
Speaker 2: of you who know my history, And if you don't,

633
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,720
Speaker 2: all you gotta do is go on all the social

634
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 2: networking at Facebook and Instagram, at Twitter x your tiktook.

635
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 2: I love that every time I hear Andrew Evilize cools

636
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,240
Speaker 2: your run one because the TikTok. No, he didn't you,

637
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 2: you jerk, It's because he out hustled you. But anyway,

638
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 2: when it comes to musical selection, he's like a typical politician.

639
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 2: He wants to satisfy everybody.

640
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 9: Uh.

641
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,879
Speaker 2: Later on, we're going to talk about Kurt Cobain's death.

642
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 2: You know, the age of grunge rock. Now, how they're

643
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 2: reinvestigating that. They never thought it was suicide. Never did

644
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 2: think Courtney loved. Oh well, hold on, you don't want

645
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 2: to go anywhere. Think puddle of mud. Huh did you

646
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 2: ever listen to Puddle of Mud? My wife actually introduced

647
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 2: that to me just the other day. Great Ben never

648
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 2: had heard of them. You see, every day you learn things.

649
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 2: Your curiosity should be there. Lincoln Park, the suicide at

650
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 2: Chester Bennington. He was absolutely spectacular three doors down the

651
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 2: death of Brad Arnold from cancer, kidney cancer at forty seven.

652
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 2: That's why today is the best day of your life.

653
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 2: Look how many of them are no longer with us,

654
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 2: with all the fame, with all the fortune, with everything

655
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 2: breaking their way and things happen in life. Let's be

656
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 2: happy you're alive. I know for some of you you

657
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 2: said I'd rather be dead. Well for some of you,

658
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 2: that's because Zoron Mondami is the mayor of the City

659
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 2: of New York. What is he had like forty six

660
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 2: forty seven days since he was sworn in. It's the

661
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 2: number one problem with Zoron Mondahmi because nobody knows the

662
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 2: streets and the subway is better than me. Collectively. You

663
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 2: could have put Eric Adams, Andrew Cormo's Armandami up on

664
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,280
Speaker 2: any stage, and if we did New York City Jeopardy.

665
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,839
Speaker 2: You know who would have won that game? That would

666
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 2: have been me overwhelming. They don't really know the city.

667
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 2: Zorn is on a learning curve. He got hit with

668
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:21,399
Speaker 2: this super spectacular cold snap where the snow turned into ice.

669
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 2: It's been three weeks and the snow and the ice

670
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 2: is still out there. How do we know, because it's

671
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 2: turned yellow because all the canines in the world have

672
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 2: decided to mark their spots on the snow and the

673
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 2: ice that still exists. But what I want to talk about,

674
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 2: specifically with Zarhamandami is the horror of what I've experienced,

675
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:50,280
Speaker 2: and that is the homeless and the emotionally disturbed, who

676
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 2: in many instances, were not cared for in this Code

677
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 2: blue situation where they should have been involuntarily hospitalized, taken

678
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 2: off the streets, brought to a hospital, or brought to

679
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 2: a shelter. And by the way, nobody knows more about

680
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 2: the shelters than me. I've been in about two thirds

681
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 2: in them, especially imagine dizzy Izzy. There are shelters that

682
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 2: are called MICA shelters for the mentally ill and chemically addicted. Now,

683
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 2: if you're mentally ill, you think a shelter is the

684
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 2: place you should be, or maybe a mental health care hospital. Hunh,

685
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 2: because that's like one flew over the cucko's nest. That's Darwinian.

686
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 2: It's survival of the fittest. If you've ever been in

687
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:33,239
Speaker 2: the shelters, the worst for the single males, the single females.

688
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 2: Family run shelters generally much better run. And there are

689
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,919
Speaker 2: a few shelters where you're allowed to bring your pet in.

690
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 2: That's good, But the vast majority of them, it's chaos.

691
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,240
Speaker 2: So when I deal with homeless people and emotionally disturb

692
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 2: people I've known for years. And by the way, they

693
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 2: didn't just all emerge now because of this cold and

694
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 2: ice snap and the Arctic weather. They've been out there

695
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,720
Speaker 2: all along. Doblasio did nothing about them. It was heightened

696
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 2: during the lockdown and pandemic. Eric Adams did nothing about

697
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,800
Speaker 2: the enemy. Spent seven billion dollars of all money on

698
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,320
Speaker 2: migrants people we didn't even know, put them in hotels,

699
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,440
Speaker 2: right three squares a day. Write your ticket for the

700
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:16,280
Speaker 2: homeless and emotionally disturbed, who are for the most part

701
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 2: are Americans, fellow Americans, and yes, Dizzy, the predominant number

702
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 2: of them are African Americans. So you would have thought

703
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 2: somebody like Eric Adams would have said, hey, you got

704
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 2: to take care of my brothers and sisters. Not And

705
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:33,800
Speaker 2: also these elected officials, they are all into Hey, you know, equity, equity, Well.

706
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 4: How come you don't take how come you don't take

707
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 4: care of the predominantly black population of homeless and emotionally disturbed,

708
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 4: many of whom I know on a first name basis.

709
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 2: It is bad out there. Zorn Stubborn just refused to

710
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 2: remove them involuntarily, which was the right thing to do,

711
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 2: the right thing to do. He was saying, where they

712
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 2: got drop in centers. They finally put out warming buses.

713
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 2: But he doesn't understand the nature of the population. A

714
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 2: lot of them are wanderers. They don't want to go

715
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 2: to shelter. They certainly don't want to go to a

716
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,239
Speaker 2: mental health care hospital. That's why they have to be

717
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 2: involuntarily committed people who are deemed to be a danger

718
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 2: to themselves and everyone else. So I was out there

719
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,839
Speaker 2: with the Guardian Angels still am every day, every night

720
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 2: and giving them badly needed supplies, you know, those sort

721
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:34,360
Speaker 2: of like aluminum foil blankets that you get when you

722
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 2: finish the New York City Marathon, giving that to them

723
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,640
Speaker 2: to sort of ward off the cold protein bars. Water.

724
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,879
Speaker 2: They need water because they dehydrate, and when they dehydrate,

725
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 2: if they have any kind of psychosis or their bipolar disorder,

726
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 2: or if they're off their medication, whatever, it is that

727
00:44:54,840 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 2: is mentally ailing them has just enhanced all that. More gloves, socks, hats,

728
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:07,240
Speaker 2: sock hats we distribute them, and the handwarmers very important.

729
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 2: Now we're just a volunteer organization. You can see what

730
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 2: we do. You just go to Guardian Angels. You can

731
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 2: see all the social network and what we've done. When

732
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:22,799
Speaker 2: it got most extreme, I would say about seven days ago,

733
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 2: I now began to run into homeless people who were

734
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 2: without shoes, both in the streets, the parks, in the

735
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:34,840
Speaker 2: subways and sub zero freezing weather. I thought, well, maybe

736
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:38,360
Speaker 2: one person, quite a few of them, and I'd have

737
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 2: a conversation with them, because I know quite a few

738
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 2: of them by first name. They've been They've been out

739
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,359
Speaker 2: in the streets and the subways for years. Nobody's done

740
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 2: anything for them. Hey Charlie, what happened to your shoes? Well,

741
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 2: you know, Curtis, I'm here on the subway. I kept

742
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 2: the shoes close to me and these stugs came up

743
00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 2: to me. Are the homeless people, and they stole my shoes.

744
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,399
Speaker 2: Stole your shoes. Sounds like jail, sounds like what goes

745
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 2: on in the shelter. Darwinian Survival of the fitters. Another guy,

746
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 2: he was missing half a foot. It was exposed that

747
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 2: came from diabetes many years ago. They had to remove

748
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 2: half his foot. He had a special shoe made and

749
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 2: then for his other foot the regular shoe. They stole

750
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 2: both those shoes and I posted all of this and

751
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 2: then they did it to a woman too. It was

752
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 2: survival of the fittish Darwinian. The mayor his staff had

753
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 2: no idea what was going on. Part of the problem

754
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 2: was he inherited a lot of Eric Adams holdovers who

755
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,799
Speaker 2: did nothing but sabotage his efforts. I mean, that's been

756
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:48,240
Speaker 2: Eric adams whole goal, sabotage the incoming mayor in terms

757
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 2: of his learning curve. But he's not a street guy.

758
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:55,360
Speaker 2: He's not a subway guy, and that was obvious. So

759
00:46:55,480 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 2: we will continue to help those who cannot help themselves,

760
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 2: the forgotten people of New York City. Remember the mass

761
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 2: majority of them are American citizens. The mass majority of

762
00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 2: them are African Americans, and many of them are women.

763
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 2: And they live in the subways, they live in the parks,

764
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:21,360
Speaker 2: and they live in the streets. That's their home. And

765
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 2: it's been that way with the Blasio. Eric Adams and

766
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 2: now at the start of Zaran Mandami's run as mayor.

767
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 2: And by the way, I love this so well. You

768
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 2: know the buses in the Free York Zoo run said

769
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,840
Speaker 2: the buses would be free. Hey, idiots, any of you

770
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 2: who are gone to line up for a bus like

771
00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 2: I did the other day at the junction, So I

772
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,359
Speaker 2: was going down to the El Caribe, So I had

773
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 2: to take the Flatbush Avenue bus. You know where no

774
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 2: straight Avenue meets flat Bush. First off, the lines go

775
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,239
Speaker 2: forever as you get out of the number three train

776
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 2: and nobody pays the fit nobody. They're all just bum

777
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 2: rush on the bus. And that's to a main street

778
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 2: Flushing hosted that buses back to bed. Nobody pays Webster

779
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,799
Speaker 2: Avenue of the Box, nobody pays Highland Boulevard and set

780
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 2: nobody pays. Nobody's paying the bus fare. They say that

781
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 2: half the bus fares are paid. That's a lie. Just

782
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 2: ask the bus drivers, Hey, when's the last time anybody

783
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,000
Speaker 2: paid a fare? And they have to stop and think

784
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 2: our numbers, because it is your time to be heard

785
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 2: here at WABC one eight hundred three two one zero

786
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 2: WR that's one eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.

787
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 2: Me make sure I get that straight. One eight hundred

788
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 2: three two one zero seven ten because my goal is

789
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,879
Speaker 2: to save talk radio and get it back to it's

790
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 2: an original form, which is taking callers, new callers, not

791
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 2: the same old fuddy duddy callers that you hear every day,

792
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,680
Speaker 2: and it's predictable what they're gonna say. I love you,

793
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:03,759
Speaker 2: you me. It's like an episode of Barney and make

794
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,399
Speaker 2: it stimulating again. It all started started right here.

795
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:08,279
Speaker 9: W R.

796
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 2: Barry Gray nineteen forty five took a call from Woody

797
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,400
Speaker 2: Herman after playing stacks of wax of Woody Herman's great

798
00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:17,439
Speaker 2: band Classics, and then the suit said you should take

799
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 2: calls from listeners. That's how this thing of art started.

800
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:26,760
Speaker 2: And honor of Barry Gray, who began what we now

801
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 2: call talk radio, which for some has become many podcasts

802
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:34,760
Speaker 2: because they never take callers. Never do one eight hundred

803
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:37,200
Speaker 2: three two one zero seven to ten. By the way,

804
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 2: up next, Valentine's Day with AI has become increasingly more popular.

805
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,759
Speaker 2: Why do it with someone you know when you can

806
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 2: do it with artificial intelligence who will stroke you to

807
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 2: the ends of time. The voice that fights for new York.

808
00:49:55,480 --> 00:50:00,000
Speaker 1: Literally Curtis Leewa guest hos for Mark Simone on seven

809
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 1: ten wor.

810
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: Nah nah nah this is it would have been perfect

811
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:17,319
Speaker 2: for this The AI dating cafe would have been that

812
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:22,959
Speaker 2: classic by Craftwork Computer Love. Do you ever hear that song?

813
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:28,840
Speaker 2: Perfect talks about the emotional void created by substituting human

814
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:34,960
Speaker 2: connections with machines. So I noticed the phenomenon that had

815
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 2: taken place over the Valentine's Day weekend, and I had

816
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 2: a great Valentine's Day with one I love, who has

817
00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 2: been the best thing that ever happened in my life. Nancy, Oh,

818
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:50,680
Speaker 2: it's great. We did a post with one of the

819
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 2: many cats, and Nancy has rescued, like so many other

820
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 2: animal rescuers out there, in this case was Tiny, who

821
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 2: had been in a hoarding experience, did not socialized. Boy

822
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:05,480
Speaker 2: that was the toughest of the many catchies. Rescued and

823
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 2: adopted out and forced it out to bring back. And

824
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 2: so you see pictures of Tiny. Tiny's a star. It's

825
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:15,400
Speaker 2: gone virtual all over the world, and that's great. And

826
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:19,160
Speaker 2: for many of you, you love your animal family members

827
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,440
Speaker 2: and friends more than you do humans, And I get it.

828
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 2: I get it. You don't want to hear it. Humans.

829
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,479
Speaker 2: But we're not talking about a cat cafe or even

830
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 2: what is now starting dog cafes. We're talking about an

831
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 2: AI dating cafe, the world's first with avatars. So dizzy izzy.

832
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 2: If you were on your own, you could have gone

833
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:48,520
Speaker 2: to that artificial intelligence dating cafe with a chat bot

834
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 2: platform that would connect you with a virtual partner, an

835
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:59,920
Speaker 2: avatar who listens, supports all your desires as freaky deeky

836
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 2: as they might be, and it's always in touch with you.

837
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:09,680
Speaker 2: You can build a relationship and intimacy privately on your terms.

838
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 2: You can date your computer. All you gotta do is

839
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 2: show up, sit in front of an iPhone, propably understand this.

840
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 2: He is he tried right now, proply onunderstand, put on

841
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 2: a pair of headphones, although try to pay attention to

842
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:32,840
Speaker 2: this show. Please and court a virtual paramore. Well, you

843
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 2: have a food and beverage, a normal date, a cyber

844
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 2: companion to deal with loneliness. But think about that. When

845
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 2: is the first divorce case gonna take place in divorce

846
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 2: court in which all of a sudden people are going

847
00:52:56,160 --> 00:53:00,440
Speaker 2: to say that AI and that AI company, which are

848
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 2: many now our homewrecords it broke up by marriage. My

849
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,240
Speaker 2: husband fell in love with a bot, or my wife

850
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 2: fell in love with a bot, or my boyfriend or

851
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 2: girlfriend fell in love with a bot, and they're leaving

852
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:21,880
Speaker 2: me for a bot. You know that's coming up. And

853
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:28,040
Speaker 2: look at what some of these checkboxes have done, stoking

854
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:35,160
Speaker 2: users paranoia, assisting struggling teens with suicide. And yet these

855
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:39,640
Speaker 2: masters of the universe in Silicon Valley, Elon Mosco says,

856
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:44,879
Speaker 2: don't worry, it'll be Nirvana. We'll talk about Nirvana later on.

857
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 2: That's right, Kurt Cobain, Oh yeah, but uh, it'll be Nirvana.

858
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:59,160
Speaker 2: There'll be abundance for all. It'll be utopia. And they

859
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 2: claim that their companies, with their many chat boxes, can

860
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 2: reduce anxiety, depression, and loneliness. I guess the world's first

861
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:11,800
Speaker 2: chat box was back in the sixties, if you really

862
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 2: want to be topical. But what do chat boxes do?

863
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,440
Speaker 2: He is he is. I know, you go through your

864
00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 2: life like so many people, and nobody ever compliments you

865
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,200
Speaker 2: or says anything nice. They dish you, they dismiss you,

866
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:29,320
Speaker 2: They i fornicate you, they mad dog you. They treat

867
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 2: you like a person of no consequence. A lot of

868
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:33,640
Speaker 2: you are not your edge man. That's what happens with

869
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 2: me every day. But the chat bot, they lavish you

870
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:47,279
Speaker 2: with compliments, they keep you streamed with support, and they

871
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 2: try to keep you talking. And AI companies, artificial intelligence companies,

872
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:58,960
Speaker 2: no that this is addictive. Yeah, like FanDuel, you know,

873
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:02,360
Speaker 2: bet money you don't have, which then means you're going

874
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:04,319
Speaker 2: to go out and try to steal money to pay

875
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,359
Speaker 2: off your debts. No, no, no, no, this is far

876
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 2: more nefarious. AI artificial intelligence companies are addicting you, and

877
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 2: you're sleepwalking right into an eruption. I'm telling you. You

878
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:27,400
Speaker 2: don't hear this on talk radio? Do you? Is he

879
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:31,120
Speaker 2: does anybody talk about artificial intelligence? Why it's coming so

880
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 2: fast and furiously. It's affecting every aspect of our life.

881
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 2: It's already there, but it's not part of the talking points. Gee,

882
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,480
Speaker 2: I might have actually do research. I might actually have

883
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 2: to study this. I might actually have to get up

884
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:52,600
Speaker 2: to speed on this artificial intelligence, which is moving faster

885
00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:58,279
Speaker 2: than a speeding bullet. You know the old superman Chris Reeves.

886
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:03,080
Speaker 2: But you won't hear ye I'm talking radio. No, but

887
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 2: we have a chance to hear from you and not

888
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:11,680
Speaker 2: your artificial intelligence gumata or paramore or friend that you

889
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 2: prefer rather than human beings. You get to talk to

890
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 2: me and all the hundreds and thousands of listeners to

891
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,799

00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:51,240
Speaker 2: Oh God, let me impale myself.

900
00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 1: guest hosting from Mark Simone on seven.

901
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 2: Cow, SAIDs we should be talking more about artificial intelligence

902
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:13,400
Speaker 2: as it just steam rolls to our society. Ah, the

903
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,800
Speaker 2: freaks in Silicon Valley, they can do whatever they want, right,

904
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:20,480
Speaker 2: the masters of the universe. Look at Zuckerbert. We said

905
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:23,360
Speaker 2: that artificial intelligence can make you feel less alone. And

906
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 2: what did he do with Meta? Apparently they were outed

907
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:32,960
Speaker 2: for letting its chat box flirt with miners. Oh but

908
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,360
Speaker 2: I didn't know that. Sure, you didn't. Yeh, right, you

909
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:38,000
Speaker 2: just cared about the money. And then look at Ellen

910
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 2: Musk right, Oh what a freak. Ha what was that?

911
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 4: Grock?

912
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 2: He has his AI was using AI to remove clothing

913
00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 2: from people and kids. Oh, we had no idea. Look,

914
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 2: there's a lot of money and artificial intelligence, lots and

915
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:02,840
Speaker 2: lots of money, and these companies know that and they're

916
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:07,760
Speaker 2: pouring billions and billions of dollars. We're not talking about it.

917
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 2: Citizens know little, if anything about it. Apparently seventy two

918
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 2: percent of US teens have turned to artificial intelligence for companionship,

919
00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:22,840
Speaker 2: seventy two percent. Are you aware of that about your

920
00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 2: grandchildren or your children young people in general? Is there

921
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,920
Speaker 2: a discussion of this or do we just let the

922
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:36,400
Speaker 2: masters of the universe in Silicon Valley make billions and

923
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:40,320
Speaker 2: billions of dollars and tell us, hey, don't worry about it,

924
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:43,600
Speaker 2: we don't need to be regulated. Trust us. You're the

925
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:47,360
Speaker 2: last people in the world. I trust the last people.

Speaker 9: on earth and the reason why I called and I

940

Speaker 9: spoke to your lovely screener. Are you there, curse?

941
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm listening loud in Kia. But you're glazing me. Now,

942
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 2: you're really glazing me. You're stroking me. But go ahead.

943
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 9: Wait, sorry, you're a doll. Listen to me when you

944
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:52,240
Speaker 9: were on a different station. And they are idiots to

945
00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:57,680
Speaker 9: lose you, but they are winners to have you. Right now,

946
00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 9: you did the coolest thing that I was shared with

947
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 9: your screen. You did this fifteen second thing that make

948
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 9: your point clear In fifteen seconds, do you remember that?

949
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 2: Yes? Yes, well I must say I must say yeah,

950
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:15,400
Speaker 2: I must no no no, no, no no no. I

951
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:19,160
Speaker 2: pimped the ride. I pimped the ride of the great

952
01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:26,200
Speaker 2: Alan B. Combs who created that. Alan B. Combs no

953
01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 2: longer with us. He was best at overnight talk radio

954
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:33,480
Speaker 2: Theater of the Mine, when he talked politics like everybody

955
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:37,720
Speaker 2: else boring. When he would get into Theater of the

956
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 2: Mine and then he would do fifteen seconds, and every

957
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,840
Speaker 2: school ball and nut job and Cucko La Munga out

958
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:49,000
Speaker 2: there would respond that was really interesting. He really, I

959
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:52,600
Speaker 2: think perfected that. Others have done it, but they pimped

960
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 2: Alan B. Combs's right. How many people have mentioned Alan B.

961
01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:03,040
Speaker 2: Combs since his untimely how many right help pave the way?

962
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:06,240
Speaker 2: I remember you come down from New Haven. He would

963
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 2: go to the studios of Channel eleven, the old daily

964
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 2: News building you know in Superman movies, and at the

965
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:16,000
Speaker 2: top it was a little chicken coop that was the

966
01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,720
Speaker 2: radio station in WPIX, and he would host the show

967
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,240
Speaker 2: on Sunday night. And when I first started The Guardian

968
01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:25,360
Speaker 2: Angels in nineteen seventy nine, he invited me. I showed

969
01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 2: up a week earlier and I said, well, why don't

970
01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:30,080
Speaker 2: we do too. You can do me tonight and then

971
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 2: I'll come back next Sunday. And he goes, oh Man

972
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 2: you're good. Alan b Comes. He loved this thing of

973
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 2: ours talk radio. How few people mention him none, and

974
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:47,360
Speaker 2: that's unfortunate. You have to pay tribute to those who

975
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,920
Speaker 2: pave the way for what so many of us do

976
01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:53,240
Speaker 2: today and take for granted. Let's go to Evince is

977
01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:56,400
Speaker 2: calling from Florida. Your turn to be heard. He at

978
01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 2: seven to ten. Woor Evince, Yeah, good morning.

979
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:02,760
Speaker 10: Last week they had a dump of the Epstein files

980
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,120
Speaker 10: and it was one that really kind of slipped through

981
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:06,520
Speaker 10: the cracks that was really important.

982
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 2: It was a woman I don't remember her name.

983
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:12,160
Speaker 10: She's the chief counsel for Goldman Sachs, where apparently she

984
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 10: had thousands of emails with Epstein. Some of them were kinky,

985
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:19,240
Speaker 10: weird stuff, but most of them were legal advice. But

986
01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:22,040
Speaker 10: if you look at the timeline, she gave him that

987
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:25,160
Speaker 10: legal advice while she was the chief counsel for Obama's

988
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:28,800
Speaker 10: White House starting in two thousand and nine. Now Epstein

989
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:31,240
Speaker 10: was arrested in two thousand and eight, was before Obama.

990
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:35,240
Speaker 10: Next thing that happened. She's the chief council for Obama,

991
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:38,480
Speaker 10: and there's no way that Obama didn't know that she's

992
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:41,720
Speaker 10: given legal advice to Epstein, and he was real careful

993
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:44,280
Speaker 10: to say some of the emails, thank you for the

994
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 10: legal advice, because he's smarter than her, and he's smarter

995
01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 10: than Obama, so he wanted to make sure that it

996
01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 10: wasn't just kinky talk that they had. But there was

997
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 10: also a lot of legal advice. And you know, you

998
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:57,080
Speaker 10: looked at the timeline again and he was arrested the

999
01:02:57,120 --> 01:03:00,480
Speaker 10: next time while Trump was president. Yet all these Democrats

1000
01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:03,600
Speaker 10: keep saying, oh, Trump, Trump, Trump, and really Obama helped

1001
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,360
Speaker 10: him and then and Clint help.

1002
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:11,600
Speaker 2: Look, look, there's no doubt about it. The Democrats said nothing.

1003
01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 2: They were like Sergeant Schultz, I hear nothing, I see nothing,

1004
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,440
Speaker 2: I say nothing. When it came to Jeffrey Epstein, they

1005
01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:20,200
Speaker 2: had that opportunity to bide in the administration. To Donald

1006
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:23,880
Speaker 2: Trump's credit, he not only kicked him out of Mara Largo,

1007
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:28,720
Speaker 2: that's been proven, but he called the police chief of

1008
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:32,400
Speaker 2: Palm Beach County, where Epstein was residing along with Trump,

1009
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 2: who had Mari Largo, and said, man, you did a

1010
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 2: great job by locking that guy up. Man, that guy's

1011
01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 2: a danger. Everybody in New York and knows this guy.

1012
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:46,240
Speaker 2: It's disgusting and most of these people after two thousand

1013
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,440
Speaker 2: and eight when he was indicted, all they had to

1014
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 2: do was google and come right up. So he was

1015
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:57,680
Speaker 2: referring to the chief Council for gold Mine Sacks. That's

1016
01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 2: what it is, gold mine Sacks. And she was like,

1017
01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:07,720
Speaker 2: she would refer to him as uncle Jeffrey, Uncle Jeffrey,

1018
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 2: and she guided him and gave him advice on how

1019
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:18,400
Speaker 2: to deal with all these sexual charges dealing with underaged

1020
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:25,240
Speaker 2: women pretty much. Remember, like Chris Cuomo, Fredo was advising

1021
01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:29,240
Speaker 2: his brother Andrew evilized Cuomo when the CNN network was

1022
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:34,160
Speaker 2: the was the Cuomo National Network, remember that. And he

1023
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 2: was advising Andrew about what to do about all these

1024
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:42,080
Speaker 2: women that Andrew was perving on. Remember, and then it

1025
01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:44,600
Speaker 2: turned out that he was being charged himself, Fredo with

1026
01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:50,920
Speaker 2: sexual harassment and CNN boy, I want to do a

1027
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:55,040
Speaker 2: DNA check the father Mario. And remember what I said

1028
01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:58,000
Speaker 2: in the debate, Andrew, I knew your father, Mario. You

1029
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:03,120
Speaker 2: are no Mario Cuomo. Never know that, never even in death.

1030
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:08,160
Speaker 2: Those stories have come out. But both sons and ants

1031
01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:12,880
Speaker 2: in their pants, and they needed to dance pants. James Brown,

1032
01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:16,760
Speaker 2: you know what they could have used. They could have

1033
01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 2: used a little bit of Saltpeter. Some of you old

1034
01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:25,120
Speaker 2: timers will know exactly what I'm talking about when I

1035
01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:30,800
Speaker 2: talk about Saltpeter. Up next, we must talk about what

1036
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:35,600
Speaker 2: I believe could be a breaking solving of a case

1037
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:43,080
Speaker 2: involving Kurt Cobain Man. He was so good and what

1038
01:05:43,160 --> 01:05:47,400
Speaker 2: they said was a suicide, it may well turn out

1039
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:50,720
Speaker 2: to have been a murder. And I'm gonna use the

1040
01:05:50,760 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 2: number twenty seven, twenty seven. You know what that refers to,

1041
01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:56,080
Speaker 2: dizzy isy, Of course not. You're of a different generation.

1042
01:05:57,360 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 2: When I said that my favorite song in the that

1043
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 2: I listened to, that German edm song Bunt today is

1044
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:07,680
Speaker 2: the best day of my life. How many of these

1045
01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 2: greats died at twenty seven, twenty seven years old? And

1046
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:19,000
Speaker 2: think of you where you are today. How many of

1047
01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:21,760
Speaker 2: them you knew, you loved, You couldn't get enough of

1048
01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:26,880
Speaker 2: their entertainment, and yet they left this plane at twenty seven,

1049
01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:29,240
Speaker 2: right here on your place to be seven to ten

1050
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:32,680
Speaker 2: wor Street Smart Straight Talk.

1051
01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:39,040
Speaker 1: Curtis leewa guest host for Mark Simone on sevent ten woor.

1052
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 2: H Didy? Is he too bad? You couldn't come in

1053
01:06:42,560 --> 01:06:47,480
Speaker 2: with smells? Like Keen Spirit, my favorite Nirvana classic. I

1054
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:52,080
Speaker 2: think that was from their second album, Kurt Cobain So Good.

1055
01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:58,040
Speaker 2: They claimed that he committed suicide with a gunshot right

1056
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:01,040
Speaker 2: underneath his chin. What was it back in nineteen ninety four.

1057
01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,280
Speaker 2: I never bought that. Now they want to open up

1058
01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:06,800
Speaker 2: the case because they claimed, Wait, he was forced to

1059
01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:09,520
Speaker 2: take a massive dose of heroin before he was shot.

1060
01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:12,640
Speaker 2: How could he be doing that on heroin? And secondly,

1061
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:18,280
Speaker 2: there were two suicide notes used different handwriting styles. Now,

1062
01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:23,440
Speaker 2: I always wondered about his wife, Courtney Love. I'm not

1063
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:27,080
Speaker 2: gonna say anything more about that, except today is the

1064
01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:29,840
Speaker 2: best day of my life. In your life because think

1065
01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:33,840
Speaker 2: he joined the twenty seven Club, Jimmy Hendrix, Jennis Choplin,
