Speaker 3: Huh?

00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 2: I mean, the diva of all divas when I was

8
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 2: the whirling dervish on the dance floor at a number

9
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 2: of clubs. But anyway, the fact is, you come in

10
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: with generic music. Ugh. And by the way, as the

11
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 2: President of the United States announced that today is Donald

12
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: Trump Day, yet I'm sure that's going to come up

13
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 2: within the course of his conversation, said, hey, why we

14
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 2: call it President's Day? Why don't we just call it

15
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 2: Donald Trump Day? And all of his sick fans todies

16
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: and like his brilliant idea, outstanding you the best, You're

17
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 2: better than George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.

18
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 3: Come on, yeah, keep feeding that humongous ego.

19
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 2: That needs a crane to get him in and out

20
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 2: of the Oval office. See, and I gonna hear that

21
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 2: on talk radio. It's like an echo chamber. I love Trump. Oh,

22
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 2: it's sort of like it's like the Barney song. Yeah,

23
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: I hated Barney. I had to watch Barney with my

24
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 2: sons growing up. And it's just I'll get to that momentarily. Yeah,

25
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: we're gonna talk about President Stay, We're gonna talk about Epstein.

26
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 2: One thing I do give for President Trump a lot

27
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: of credit for is opening up those files. Although Pam

28
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 2: Bondy was, eh, we do all on my desk.

29
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 3: No they weren't. We'll get to that. Oh yeah, and

30
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 3: oh wait.

31
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: A second, wait a second was starting to open up

32
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: the investigation of what was said.

33
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 3: To be the suicide.

34
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: Of one of the greatest guitar players of all time.

35
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: And I'm gonna let you think about that.

36
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say, twenty seven, twenty seven, twenty seven,

37
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: all right, maybe you can connect the dots.

38
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 3: We're gonna touch it all, Zoran man Dami.

39
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 2: The snow is still out there and it's turned yellow,

40
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:31,119
Speaker 2: you know from what yellow snow and all the homeless

41
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 2: and emotionature.

42
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna cover it all.

43
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 2: But whenever I do talk radio and I come in

44
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 2: to studios like here at w AWAR, I think of

45
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 2: all those people who are paved the way for so

46
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: many of us to just read talking points and get paid,

47
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 2: because really that's what talk radio has become. I'm gonna

48
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: get into that momentarily. But uh, the one thing I

49
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 2: noticed out of the super that I watched with my

50
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 2: wife Nancy, the only thing I really liked. Although I

51
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 2: liked Bad Bunny, Yeah, I did like Bad Bunny saw

52
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 2: on first time when he did that duo with Drake

53
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 2: and Puerto Rico.

54
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 3: Good stuff.

55
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 2: The rest of you could have watched something else, you see,

56
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 2: that's the beauty of America. If you don't like what

57
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 2: you're watching or listening to, you have a variety of options.

58
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 3: You either turn it off or change the channel.

59
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: Huh, let's call variety. That's what America is. Free speech.

60
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 2: It's not one point of view, one way. This is

61
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: the only way you challenge authority. You question, you have curiosity,

62
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 2: don't just become a lemming. Unfortunately for many listen to

63
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: talk radio, that's what it's becoming. It's chased others away.

64
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 2: But I pay tribute first to Bernard McGirk. Every time

65
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 2: I did talk radio at WABC, the ecroonym stood for

66
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: Alwish Broadcasting Curtis thirty five years I would give a

67
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 2: tribute to Bernard McGirk because unfortunately he passed away in

68
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two at sixty four, should never have died.

69
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 2: He didn't take a PSA test, the simple prick of

70
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: the finger. So if we're gonna achieve anything in these

71
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 2: two hours, maybe we can save some lives out there.

72
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:24,239
Speaker 2: There was this one commercial as amazed, I saw Glankowski

73
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 2: tight end and so another guy think was George Kittle

74
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,799
Speaker 2: is sitting there actual tight ends who played in the NFL.

75
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 2: And it said a PSA test will allow a man

76
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 2: to relax his tight end. And I said, man, this

77
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: is good because one in eight men will be diagnosed

78
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: with prostate cancer. And unfortunately, even though there are a

79
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 2: lot of remedies now that didn't exist when I had

80
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 2: stage four prostate cancer and unfortunately I had my prostate

81
00:04:55,080 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 2: out there were another remedies. I'm still paying the price today.

82
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 2: Bernard McGirk lost his life because he didn't get a

83
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 2: simple prick of the finger of blood test. Please, wherever

84
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 2: you are listening to this show today, there's nothing more

85
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 2: important than saving lives. We're going to talk about that

86
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: later on when we talk about Jeron Mondamini his inability

87
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 2: to save the lives of homeless and emotionally disturbed persons

88
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 2: that froze to death. I know I was personally out

89
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: there with the Guardian Angels. You can check all of

90
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 2: that out on my social networking. But we paid tribute

91
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 2: to him because I remember the day he died. WABC

92
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 2: was never the same, never the same dis he is

93
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 2: he You were there, You remember that guy Knew talk radio.

94
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 2: Unfortunately for the others who remain, it's like a repetition

95
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 2: over and over, the same.

96
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 3: Show, over and over and over.

97
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: The other one, naturally, I have to pay tribute to

98
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 2: is the king of all talk radio, Bob Grant.

99
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 3: Nobody was better.

100
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 2: Not only was he enlightening and toldless things we didn't know,

101
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 2: but most important, he was entertaining.

102
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 3: He would give you a good belly laugh.

103
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,799
Speaker 2: When's the last time you had a really good belly

104
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 2: laugh listening to Talk Creative? I'll tell you I get migraines.

105
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 2: I got a flip to EDM electronic dance music with

106
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 2: my wife. Oh, host of DM song starting with Chainsmokers.

107
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 2: Don't let me down. A lot of you did in

108
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: the election. I don't want to hear that tizzy izzy

109
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 2: people come up to me. I vote a few. If

110
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 2: all the people came up to me voted for me,

111
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 2: I would have been mayor of the City of New

112
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 2: York and we would have been in better shape at

113
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 2: this point.

114
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 3: No, we'll get to that later on.

115
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 2: And then, of course this thing of ours, talk radio

116
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: was created by and when I say talk radio, I

117
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: mean taking calls from people you never heard before in

118
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 2: the radio.

119
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 3: Not the same old callers.

120
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 2: Oh myDNA, my do I gotta listen to that guy

Speaker 2: a gala again. It's like since one of day a

122
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 2: part of the show. How about allowing new people will

123
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: call in? Do you know that less than one percent

124
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 2: of people listen to talk radio in their whole lives?

125
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 2: Less than one percent of called in. And it's the

126
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 2: same people over and over again. And dizzy Isy, when

127
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 2: we open up the phones today, you better not be

128
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 2: taking the same old callers. Or let me just say,

129
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 2: you will feel vibrations from me that will rock you

130
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 2: from your your toes to your nose.

131
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 3: Good talk radio. A lot of callers different who disagree

132
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,679
Speaker 3: with you. Not just a love fast.

133
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 2: Remember how I said, Parney, you know listening to the

134
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 2: echo chambion.

135
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 3: Oh I love you, I love you.

136
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 2: I remember I used to look at that purple monster

137
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: up there. I love you, you love me. We're a

138
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 2: happy family with a great big hug. And it kissed

139
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: from me to you. Won't you say you love me too?

140
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: If I had a forty four magnum, I would have

141
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 2: shot him right there. And that RCA I think it

142
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 2: was an rc A TV. Remember Elvis did that. Yeah,

143
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 2: that's right, Elvis did that in Memphis. And then Talk

144
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 2: told Red, hey go out and get me a new TV.

145
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 2: He didn't like something on TV.

146
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 3: Took out. I think it was twenty two or thirty eight. Bam,

147
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 3: that's what I felt like. It's like an echo chamber.

148
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: Where's the different thoughts we are, the different people challenging

149
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 2: what you just said. That's that's what must change. And

150
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 2: you know where talk radio, real talk radio was created

151
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 2: right here?

152
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 3: Wor Did you know that this he is he?

153
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 2: Most people don't know that. They have no idea how

154
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 2: talk radio got started. Well, it was very gray right here, WI.

155
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 2: This was the DJ at night. All of a sudden,

156
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 2: Woody Herman called in after he played a Woody Herman

157
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 2: song and the suits were listening and say, hey, that's

158
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 2: pretty good.

159
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 3: And then he started letting callers, normal, average everyday people call.

160
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 3: Oh that's even better.

161
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 2: That's how talk radio started. If you're not taking calls,

162
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 2: then it's a mini podcast. Guests oo far with these guests,

163
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 2: you hear them, you know, I sample talk radio at night.

164
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 2: You can get in on the podcast when I finish

165
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: a long workday.

166
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 3: My wife says to me, are you a massochist?

167
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 2: I mean you really You must loathe yourself to have

168
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 2: to listen to the same discussions with the same guests

169
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 2: on four or five different formats. You see him on

170
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 2: Fox News and see it, and then you hear them

171
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 2: on the radio.

172
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 3: It's the same. They never break stride.

173
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 2: Guess so far, any guests, we got callers and obviously

174
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 2: the the hostess gotta do preparation show prep. Yeah, two

175
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 2: hours of prep for one every one hour on the air.

176
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 3: That means I have.

177
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 2: To relate to you, the listeners, things that maybe you

178
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 2: didn't know. So even if you don't like my opinion,

179
00:09:58,960 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: you know, likewise.

180
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 3: Maybe you learn something.

181
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 2: We just did that announcement, the PSA test is gonna

182
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 2: save people's lives.

183
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 3: And you didn't have to hear it at PSA format.

184
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 2: You heard it from your truly critics who had stage

185
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 2: four prostate cancer.

186
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 3: So a lot of people who have said to me, well,

187
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 3: what are you gonna do? What are you gonna do? Now?

188
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 2: It's three months after the election, November fourth, little more

189
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 2: than three months, and I gotta tell you a lot

190
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 2: of people would tell me, forget, don't go back to

191
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 2: talk radio.

192
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 3: You've done it thirty five years.

193
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 2: Nobody did it better in New York City other than

194
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 2: the king of talk radio, Bob Grant. Come on, I

195
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 2: don't even come close. But it turns a longevity and

196
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 2: of course a great March simone, no doubt about it.

197
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:42,439
Speaker 3: Man.

198
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 2: That guy's a smooth operator. Every time I hear Mark

199
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 2: on the air, I think of that Shadday song classic.

200
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 2: I first heard it in the eighties and London outside

201
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: of Array when I was patrolling with the Cardian Angels

202
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 2: say smooth operator by Shade Man.

203
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 3: He is the smoothest.

204
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: But I have determined, after consulting with the best thing

205
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 2: that ever happened in my life, and I have restated

206
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: that a number of times. On Valentine's Day, you may

207
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 2: have seen my post and Nancy's post. We did it

208
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: with Tiny who was a cat and Nancy rescued from

209
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 2: a hoarding situation who would not socialize.

210
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 3: We took pictures.

211
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 2: Boy Tiny has assimilated with so many other cats that

212
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 2: my wife and others out there have rescued over the

213
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 2: years and then either forced them out or adopted them out.

214
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 2: The best thing that ever happened in my life. Hey,

215
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: you know, people have wanted me to do videos podcasting,

216
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 2: a lot of gen z's and millennials now following me.

217
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 2: They invited me to Yale University right for debate seven

218
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 2: different groups. They went from conservatives to progressives to DSSA.

219
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: And I came out of there after two and a

220
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 2: half hours and they were saying, well, you're the uniter,

221
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 2: and now who's lining up? We got Harvard, we got

Speaker 2: we find you wick it? They don't listen to talk radio.

226
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 2: Come on, let's be honest, right, come on, dizzy is he?

227
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 2: They don't listen to talk if it's people fifty five plus,

228
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 2: And some people say, well, do the podcast for the

229
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 2: millennials in gen ze Is. They have an insatiable appetite

230
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: to find out more about what you do, Curtis and

231
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 2: all the things you've been through, which y'all a lot.

232
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 3: I said, yeah, yeah, I can't do that.

233
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 2: But the other day my wife said, Valentine, say, he

234
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 2: said you got a mission. You know, everywhere we go,

235
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 2: people who are your age, Curtis, because she's millennial, your age,

236
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 2: say hey, would you come back and save talk radio?

237
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: That's what they say, does he is he? Because I

238
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 2: gotta tell you, especially those who used to listen to WABC,

239
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 2: they'll tell me, hey, I missed listening to you on

240
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 2: seventy seven WABC. You will never hear my voice on

241
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 2: there again, because they're always backstabbing me, blaming me for

242
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 2: Mondami's win, bashing me. I listen less and less to

243
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 2: WABC and turn into other stations. But I listened less

244
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 2: and less to talk radio in general, and I understand it.

245
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 2: And speaking of WABC, they seem to have gone out

246
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 2: of their way to find anybody who loves to bash

247
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 2: or blame Curtis to bring on the radio. Andrew evilized

248
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 2: Cuomo Wright.

249
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 3: Hey, Andrew, I.

250
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 2: Said to them, he too su Proviano Spatci man, you

251
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 2: are boring radio, but he loves to bash me. Now

252
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 2: they're bringing on Frnando Martel, who I beat in the

253
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 2: Republican primary for mayor in twenty twenty one. Yeah, disey

254
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 2: is because he's promised for two hours he's gonna do

255
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 2: nothing but bash Curtis and blame Curtis for zorn Mondamis.

256
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 2: And no doubt soon they'll bring the crypto criminal himself,

257
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 2: the blockchain man best known for crime coin aka Bitcoin,

258
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 2: Eric Adams Swaggerman with no plan.

259
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 3: By the way, where did that million dollars go? Eric? First?

260
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 2: Out of the box? You know, the token token New

261
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 2: York City, That nonsense. A million dollars disappeared. But they'll

262
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 2: probably give me a job too, and it will be

263
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 2: one big echo chamber. So stay tuned, ladies and gentlemen.

264
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 2: It's time for me to get back into the mix

265
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 2: of talk radio in addition to all the other things

266
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 2: that I'm doing. Because it's twenty hours out of a

315
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 2: like Lenslice, Right?

316
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 3: Right? Does he is?

317
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 4: He?

318
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 2: We like Lenzeist? Turn on the TV, you'd see one

319
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 2: of the four of us. If that was a crime

320
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 2: getting publicity, all four of us would have been in

321
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,879
Speaker 2: the same jail cell. Would have been Donald Trump, would

322
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 2: have been Alslim shady sharped in, it would have been

323
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 2: Chucky che Schumer, the Schmucker Putts, and of course it

324
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 2: would have been Curtis Lee. But when he was an

325
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 2: iron me guy, and he put his name on hotels

326
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 2: and casinos and buildings and airplanes and steaks and neckties

327
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 2: and bottled water. Okay, Narcissistic personality disorder. A lot of

328
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,719
Speaker 2: people have that. You listen to the mornings over at WABC,

329
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 2: that's Sid Rosenberg. Narcissistic personality disorder. A lot of people

330
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 2: have that, and it was sort of entertaining at the time,

331
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 2: but now I don't know mine. He wants to be

332
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 2: on the one dollar coin. He's got his name, It's

333
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 2: on the JFK Center. He wants Penn Station named after him,

334
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 2: the Washington Commander's new stadium named after him. He wants

335
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 2: Washington Dulles International Airport named after him. And there's a

336
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: move to say he should be up there on Mount Rushmore.

337
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 3: That's right.

338
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 2: You know, the sixty foot monuments to our previous president,

339
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 2: starting with George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt, and of

340
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 2: course Abraham Lincoln. Teddy Roosevelt. He had a umongous ego.

341
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 2: Teddy was all about himself, no doubt about it. And

342
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 2: other presidents have been that way. I mean, Calvin Coolidge

343
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 2: had a coin made for him his face. Calvin Coolidge

344
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 2: one of the worst presidents of all time, right, a

345
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 2: person of those consequence while he was still alive and

346
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 2: in office. And then Hoover, you were responsible for the depression.

347
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 2: You have the Hoover dam the damn named after him.

348
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 2: Then FDR said no, and then Truman reinstalled it. So

349
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 2: I get it, these cults of personality, I get it.

350
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 2: But wow, this is extreme, and so many of you

351
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 2: out there all right, listen.

352
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 3: Oh he's infallible. Guess what.

353
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 2: The Pope was never infallible. Donald Trump is not infallible.

354
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 2: He's uniquely qualified. He's divinely delivered. Oh God, enough of this.

355
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 2: But we've had a lot of bullshnizzle before the Age

356
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 2: of Camelot. I mean, with JFK and RFK and Teddy Kennedy. Boy,

357
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 2: they would have been on those Epstein lists. You know

358
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 2: that if they were alive with jeffy Epstein, you know,

359
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 2: you know, they'd have been on pedophile Island. Oh my god,

360
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 2: they would have had frequent flyer miles on the Lolita

361
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 2: Express from a teen a cairport out there off the

362
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: Virgin Islands, no doubt about it.

363
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna talk about Jeffrey Epstein, you know, out

364
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 3: of all finally, you know, we get to Epstein files.

365
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 2: Tribute to Donald Trump for releasing him, because the Democrats

366
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 2: never did. But you know what we find out the

367
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein's obsession not only being a high end pimp

368
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 2: for those who had the same predilections as him. Remember,

369
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,239
Speaker 2: if you were looking for adult women exotic, you went

370
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 2: to Jeffrey Epstein. If you were looking for kids, you

371
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 2: went to Jeffrey Epstein. But apparently his predilection that topped

372
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 2: all of the of the sicola predilections that he and

373
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 2: his followers had was he only ate beef jerkey and

374
00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 2: it had to be the inner Mongolian style. So out

375
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 2: of the millions and millions of patpers worth of files

376
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 2: that have been dropped, finally by Pam Bondi, who said, oh,

377
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 2: they're all on my desk, but she lied. Susie Wiles,

378
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 2: the chief of staff, said, hey, she lied about that.

379
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 2: We finally got most of it and we find out

380
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 2: that he would fly a chef in from Long Island

381
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 2: because all you would eat was beef jerky. So with

382
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 2: all these dinners that he hosted or he attended, am

383
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 2: I to believe that on his plate was beef jerky?

384
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 2: Really And people didn't look at that and say, man,

385
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 2: this guy is freaky, deeky. He's a sicola.

386
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:41,119
Speaker 3: Just from that.

387
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:47,479
Speaker 2: So much more. And I got to say, for all

388
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 2: of these people, they reminded me of Sogeant Schultz. You

389
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 2: remember Hogan's heroes Stalog thirteen. I see nothing, I hear nothing,

390
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 2: I know nothing, this even after two thousand and eight

391
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 2: for pedophilia. And I gotta give credit to Donald Trump

392
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,239
Speaker 2: on this. Donald Trump, apparently, in a phone call to

393
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:16,160
Speaker 2: the Palm Beach police chief at the time, said everyone

394
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 2: knows about Jeffrey Epstein's aberink behavior. I threw him out

395
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 2: of the club marl Largo. People in New York knew

396
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 2: he was disgusting. Yeah they did, and yet they still

397
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 2: did business with him, especially Steve Tish, co owner of

398
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 2: the Giants, who loved those babies got back. Oh my god,

399
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 2: you see you should have the sir mix a lot song.

400
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 2: Baby got back. I like big butts and I cannot lie.

401
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 2: And that's why Steve Tish would go to Jeffrey Epstein hook.

402
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 3: Me up with Baby got back.

403
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: But I didn't do nothing wrong trying to light up

404
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 2: those phones to be heard here on your newfound station.

405
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 2: WOOR one eight hundred three two one zero. That's one

406
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,320

00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 3: The Beret is back.

414
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 3: You know, like a guy like Greg Kelly over at WABC,

415
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:34,800

Speaker 2: Greg Kelly show prep. Without Mark Simone, He's got nothing

418
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 2: to talk about. He basically repeats everything that Mark said

00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 2: on his show. Oh enough enough, we gotta go to

Speaker 2: the way we would have said it in the old neighborhood.

458
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 2: By the way, curling, you know, Olympic sport, Winter Olympic

459
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 2: sport couldn't be any more boring, like some of talk

460
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,719
Speaker 2: radio I've listened to lately, And so my wife was

461
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,199
Speaker 2: asking me about I say, it's like Bacchi. You know,

462
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 2: my grandfather if he Dela Bianchino played Bacci with the

463
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 2: other gumbas in Keanarsi, you know, they'd be smoking a

464
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 2: crooked Italian cigars at Deanobla. They'd be speaking their dialect,

465
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 2: cursing one another. It was boring with Bacci. It's boring

466
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 2: with curling. Oh, we got to under this boring repetition

467
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:27,719
Speaker 2: of talk radio. It's like, God, be curious, challenge your Dougherty,

468
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 2: ask questions. Don't be sickle fans, Tody's and lackeys and

469
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 2: allow for other points of you to be hurt. That's

470
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 2: the American way. Let's go to Chris, who's calling from

471
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 2: Beth Page. Your turn to be heard here? Seven to

472
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 2: ten w or R Chris.

473
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 5: Hey, Curtis, I got even money back with a friend

474
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 5: that somehow Steve from Manhattan sneaks onto the air in

475
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,439
Speaker 5: some way today anyhow. But I know you're good at

476
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 5: rooting him out anyhow, Curtis. The reason I called was

477
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 5: I vote it for Trump. Trump, and I disagree with

478
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 5: you most of us, I'd say, like ninety of us.

479
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 5: Aren't these lackeys that everything he says, we think he's

480
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 5: stupid a lot of stuff. We voted for his policies.

481
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 5: He's got great economic policies. He closed the border. Gas

482
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 5: is cheaper. You know, you can go on and on

483
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 5: with his great policies. He's a great president, I think,

484
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 5: but he's not a good human being. I'm sorry. I

485
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 5: would never hang out with the guy. He sounds like

486
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 5: a morn half the time. But I like his policies

487
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:29,879
Speaker 5: and that's what we voth right.

488
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 2: Well, no, no, that's that's extraordinarily fair Chris like wanting to

489
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: take over Canada, wanting to take over Greenland. Like, really,

490
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 2: do you think if he had said that, let's say,

491
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 2: in the campaign against first Biden and then Harris the

492
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 2: bifer kated campaign. Do you think if he had said, oh,

493
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 2: when I become president, we're going to take over Canada,

494
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 2: We're going to take over Greenland, do you think he

495
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 2: would have won that an election?

496
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 5: Not at all? Okill no, But that's but that's him,

497
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 5: you know, him art of the deal hung out with

498
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 5: me know his deal. He does what he can to

499
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 5: get what he wants and then he goes bat so

500
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,719
Speaker 5: and that's you know, I do that, I know.

501
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 2: But you see the problem is now, if you believe

502
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 2: that we have to have balance in government and Republicans

503
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 2: and I am a Republican, we need to win the

504
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 2: midterm elections, those kinds of attitudes are gonna be hurtful

505
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 2: to the ability to maintain the majority. And you know,

506
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 2: if the Democrats Hakeem Jeffries becomes a speaker, he loves

507
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 2: for that you imagine the schmuck to putch CHUCKI Chi

508
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 2: Schumer returning his majority leader of the Senate. Oh my god,

509
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 2: that guy is an advertisement for term limits. And it's

510
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 2: not just him. They're Republicans senators there. What are they

511
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 2: going to be one hundred years old until death? Do

512
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 2: us part term limits for everyone? Let's go if we

513
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 2: can to at this point, I believe it is Sophie

514
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 2: who was calling from Connecticut, your turn to be heard

515
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 2: here on seven ten wo.

516
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 6: Sophie, good morning, Courtis we spoke years and years ago.

517
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 6: I am also Polish that you have Polish in Connecticut,

518
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 6: as you know. The reason I'm calling I listening to

519
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 6: what was happening the election and how wrong it was.

520
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 6: And I'm very concerned about the power of WABC owner

521
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 6: into this whole election and political issues. Even this morning.

522
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 2: I know, Sophie, they bashed me all the time. It's

523
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 2: over three months. Dominic Carter wouldn't have a show unless

524
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 2: he spent half of it bashing me and blaming me

525
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 2: for Johann Mandami. And they had no impact. First they

526
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 2: supported Eric Adams right the Swagerman with no plan to cook.

527
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 2: Then they supported Andrew evilized Coomo Facha Brutta and he

528
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 2: lost too.

529
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 3: So don't think they're all that powerful.

530
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you just based on the people who

531
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 2: come up to me who identify themselves as WABC listeners,

532
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 2: they say, I missed you on WABC. Okay, I get that,

533
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 2: And since the mayor's race has ended, I listen less

534
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 2: and less to WABC and tune into other stations. And

535
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 2: that's true. You look at the ratings they have plummeted

536
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 2: at WABC. Time spent listening is down noticeably. They run

537
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 2: around pat each other on the back so hard they'll

538
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 2: have to go for a chiropractic adjustment. But it's not

539
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 2: good talk radio, it really is. That's why my wife

540
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: has finally said to me, your job is to get

541
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 2: back into action in that thing that you've done for

542
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: thirty five years, talk radio with everything else that I'll

543
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 2: be doing, because I have a mission to save talk

544
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 2: radio and make it compelling and interesting and non predictable.

545
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 2: Why should I listen to a show today? What I

546
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 2: know they're gonna say the same thing today that they

547
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 2: said last week that they're gonna say next week, which.

548
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 4: Is ball.

549
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 3: The Balls of.

550
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: New York on the voice of New York's Curtis Sleewald,

551
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: guest host for Marximon on sevent ten DOUBLEO.

552
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 7: You know, for thirty five years, I was the voice

553
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 7: of New York over at WABC. It was always broadcasting Curtis,

554
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 7: and then it's turned into nothing more but always bashing Curtis,

555
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 7: always blaming Curtis for zarn Mondamie winning the mayoral election.

556
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 7: We'll deal with Zaron up next. But I was also

557
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 7: like the Quay's Eye program. I'm director there for many years.

558
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 2: Because I would listen, I would get constructive criticism. I had,

559
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 2: you know, Dizzy is He. The Curtics Slee were boot

560
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 2: camp for talk radio show hosts had to because when

561
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 2: you're starting TV, because there's some people in talk creadio.

562
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 2: They have no business being in talk creator they're starting

563
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 2: on TV. Then they go to radio, it just doesn't work.

564
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: You're used to highly produced segments, teleprompters, no improv it's dull.

565
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 2: Greg Kelly is an example of that. He's lost without

566
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 2: a teleprompter. Dominic carter Man, he was like special ed

567
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 2: when it came to this, Well, I'm a journalist, I'm

568
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 2: a journalists and I say you ain't no journalists no more.

569
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 2: You're a talk radio show host. You got to have

570
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 2: an opinion. You remember that Dizzy is he the guy

571
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 2: couldn't have an opinion. He wouldn't be on WABC.

572
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 3: If not for me.

573
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 2: But as part of that critics Slie boot camp for

574
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 2: talk radio show hosts at Dominic Carter, he was my

575
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,959
Speaker 2: primary focus. And I had to get Frank moronalds Now

576

577
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 2: great job by my dad. Had to get him back

578
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 2: on the beam. He needed a little help there, a

579
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 2: little remedial help. And then we had Richie Valdez, the

Speaker 2: liberty loving Latino, great talk show hosts.

581
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,280

00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 2: Of him there at WABC, And I said to myself,

583
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:22,600
