1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: Now more. Mark Simon on sevent TENR. 2 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 2: Well, we'll get to the state of the Indian space 3 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 2: coming up. It's only Wednesday. I don't know about where 4 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 2: you are. It's not so great everywhere else, but here 5 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 2: in Manhattan the snow is pretty much gone. It's a 6 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: little bit today, but it's going to be warm for 7 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,159 Speaker 2: the next few days. That'll get rid of it all. 8 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 2: It'll be forty or more through the weekend. That will 9 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 2: get rid of it all. So the good news, there's 10 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 2: no more snowball fights. Now. This is a downtown snowball fight. 11 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 2: It started online. I think it was on TikTok or 12 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 2: Instagram or somewhere. But they started organizing this and then 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 2: hundreds of people, not kids, they looked like grown up 14 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 2: people showed up for this snowball fight and it got 15 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 2: out of control and there were a couple of hundred 16 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 2: of these people throwing snowballs. Now, remember on Monday, this 17 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 2: was at the height of the blizzard. It was wet, 18 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: hard snow. When you make a wet snowball, it's very hard. 19 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: It ice is up and it was freezing cold. So 20 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: these are dangerous kind of snowballs, and they were throwing 21 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: them everywhere, and there were a couple of hundred of 22 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: these kids in the neighbors. People in the neighborhood got 23 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 2: very alarmed at this, called nine to one one and 24 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 2: cops started to show up, and these crazy lunatics started 25 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 2: throwing snowballs at cops and then hitting them. You saw 26 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 2: the video cops getting hit in the head, getting hit 27 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 2: in the face, and many of these snowballs were pretty 28 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,199 Speaker 2: hard and icy. It was an ugly thing. The police 29 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 2: commissioner right after that put out a text saying a 30 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 2: tweet saying that you know, they have a surveillance video, 31 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: they're going to look, they can identify faces. They're going 32 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 2: to start hunting down these people. That that was actually 33 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 2: a criminal act. That's assaulting a police officer. It's actually 34 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: a crime. You'll be arrested now. Then things changed when 35 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 2: mayor mom Donnie shows up. Of course, this crazy goofy, 36 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 2: young college a kid who's never had a job, never worked, 37 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: never manage anything, never run anything, bleeding heart, left wing kook. 38 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 2: So he wants to laugh the whole thing off. Ad 39 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: they were just kids. 40 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: I can just tell you from the video I saw 41 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,119 Speaker 1: it looked like kids at a snowball fight. 42 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, look at the video. I don't see any kids 43 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: in the video. They don't look like kids. They're not children, 44 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 2: they're grown up, they're adults. 45 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: From the videos that I've seen, it looks like a 46 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: snowball fight. I think that there were two officers who 47 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: were facing lacerations on. 48 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 2: Their face of those who built it them. 49 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: Look, I've seen the videos of this snowball fight. I 50 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: think that it was a snowball fight. 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: All right. Now, of course he's being a complete idiot. 52 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 2: He's so blinded by his left wing nonsense. Now, if 53 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 2: those were Muslims protesting something and they were getting hit 54 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 2: in the face with snowballs, would it just be kids? Eh, 55 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 2: just a snowball fight. If we're emom's being hit. If 56 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 2: it were those crazy left wing ice protesters, if they 57 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: were getting hit in the face with these snowballs by 58 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 2: adult males, would it be just a snowball fight? Of 59 00:02:55,760 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: course not. Police Commissioner is right, the head of the PBA, right, 60 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 2: it's criminal, it's a crime. These guys need to be 61 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 2: tracked down, arrested. They've identified some fate. They've got some 62 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: pretty good pictures of some of the faces. You can 63 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: see them online or on TV. But is it a crime? 64 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. From the videos that I've seen, it 65 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: looks like a snowball fight. 66 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's a crime. It's criminal. It's not a 67 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 2: snowball fight. First of all, the police didn't have any snowballs. 68 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 2: The snowball fight means two people thrown at each other. 69 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 2: The police did not have snowballs. They were not in 70 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 2: the snowball fight. They were trying to keep order. And 71 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: if you watch the videos, boy, you got to give 72 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 2: these cops and real credit amazing self control not to 73 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: react to that. It was pretty intense to getting hit 74 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: with these snowballs and they did not react. But it 75 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 2: was not a snowball fight. But any stretch of the imagination, 76 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 2: can you. 77 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: Agree with Commissioner Tish that what happened in Washington Square 78 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: Park with these snowballs was criminal? And how can you 79 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: take steps to potentially like this doesn't happen again. So 80 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: I've seen videos of kids drowing snowballs at members of 81 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: the NYPD in Washington Square Park, And first I want 82 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: to say that officers have been on the front line 83 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: of helping our city respond to this blizzard. They have 84 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: been keeping New Yorker safe. And they have also been 85 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: at the heart of our efforts of digging New Yorker's 86 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: cars out of these kinds of conditions and ensuring that 87 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: our ambulances, our MTA buses can keep functioning across this city. 88 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: They and our entire city workforce deserve to be treated 89 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: with respect. The only person in our city's workforce who 90 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: deserves to be treated with a snowball is me. 91 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 2: Okay, so now he's trying to cover his ass there, 92 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: but he's heading down a very bad path here. He's 93 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: going to end up like Deblasio. You remember Deblasio with 94 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 2: his bad attitude towards the cops. It got to the 95 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 2: point when that big public event, all the cops who 96 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: had been lined to turn their back on him. You 97 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: don't want to get into that kind of stuff. You 98 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 2: don't want to end up like that. And this guy's 99 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: probably smarter than Deblasio. The problem is it's in an 100 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: academic kind of way, so he doesn't have any real 101 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: world experience or management experience. But the President mentioning him 102 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 2: last night in the speech, said, you know, he's a 103 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 2: nice guy. He's a nice guy. Bad policies, but he's 104 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: a nice guy. And the President mentioning in the speech 105 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: he does talk to him regularly, so he keeps talking 106 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: to him. Now, why keep saying he's a nice Well, 107 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 2: sometimes people are nice. Guy. Sometimes these horrible people you 108 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 2: see on TV in real life, they're nice people, but 109 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 2: they're bad at their jobs. They really stink. I think 110 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: the President thinks by keeping the conversation going with this 111 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 2: guy that at some point he'll be able to have 112 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 2: some influence on him. He's not going to turn him 113 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 2: into a normal person, but at some point he may 114 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 2: be able to get him in a back off on something. 115 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 2: So I think he just sees some hope for helping 116 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: this guy straightening me out just a hair at some point. 117 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 2: He also Mom Donnie and AOC, These two nut jobs, 118 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: these two left wing kooch's, did an ad which they 119 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: posted its video. It's the most cringey thing in the world. 120 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 2: It's basically telling illegals to sign up for illegals to 121 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 2: sign up for daycare that taxpayers will pay for. They're 122 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 2: getting a lot of flak for that, but hey, this 123 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: is New York. You got enough crazy lunatics of elect 124 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 2: people like AOC, people like this guy. State of the 125 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: Union speech last night went very very well. If you 126 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: don't believe me, put on MSNBC. Watch how angry they're 127 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 2: there get and they're so angry about the speech. They're 128 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: yelling and screaming, and Morning Joe ranting and raving. Now, 129 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 2: as soon as the presidents don't want these speeches, the 130 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 2: fact checkers go to work and try to destroy him 131 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 2: with the fact check. They were unable to find much 132 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 2: of anything. Now, if you go to the real partisan 133 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 2: left wing kook sites like media Heite, you know, they 134 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: just always say crazy things. It says CNN's fact checker 135 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:04,239 Speaker 2: blistering check on Trump's speech, fifteen false claim, fifteen lies, 136 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 2: a blistering fact. Well, let's go see what the blistering 137 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 2: fact they really found. Nothing. He said he inherited a 138 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 2: stagnant economy. But inflation was already coming down under Biden. Yeah, 139 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 2: but it's very misleading. Inflation is lower under Trump, much 140 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 2: lower than under Biden. Biden had. The reason it was 141 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: coming down was Biden was always had high inflation. At 142 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: one point it went so high it went like through 143 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: the roof to nine percent, highest in our lifetime. So 144 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 2: you can't stay at that. It came down from nine 145 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: percent to like six percent if I was still bad. 146 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: It's so that fact check is just ridiculous. Now, one point, 147 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 2: he claimed that there's plenty of states where gas is 148 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 2: two dollars and thirty cents a gallon and in some 149 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 2: places a dollar ninety nine a gallon. Well the fact checkers, oh, 150 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: this is a total lie. Well it's not a total lie. 151 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 2: It's absolutely correct. How does the fact checker try to 152 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: claim it's a lie. Well, he says he checked with 153 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: the Triple A and there's no state where the average 154 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: is a dollar ninety nine. Well he didn't say the average. 155 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 2: Now for instance here, so somebody went into Oklahoma and 156 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 2: found four gas stations that had a gas at a 157 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: dollar ninety nine, So the present was correct. The fact 158 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: check are really trying to stretch things. That's the one 159 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: that drives people nuts because that's the thing that we're 160 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 2: yelling about gas prices. You know, it's four dollars a gallon, 161 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 2: four point fifty five dollars a gallon. Six dollars a 162 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 2: gallon in California. Still is you know, everywhere you go 163 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 2: all over America, gas is about two dollars and thirty cents. 164 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: If you're here in New York, it's still like four dollars. 165 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: If you're in Connecticut, Westchester, maybe it's three foot. Why 166 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: is it so high when it's dropped dramatically, it's down 167 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: to two dollars and thirty cents everywhere else, it's because 168 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 2: of New York. They won't let it drop. They every 169 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: time it's going to drop, they put more state tax 170 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 2: on it. So when you see this continued high price 171 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: of gas, it's all state tax. They kept the price 172 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 2: high by state tax. Same thing in California. You know, 173 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: it's still five six dollars a gallon. It should be 174 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: two dollars and thirty cents like everywhere else, but the 175 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 2: state keeps piling taxes on. So no fact checker is 176 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: yet to find any real, actual false claim in the 177 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 2: president's speech. Hey, in fact, we could fact check the media. 178 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 2: They got a lot of things wrong. David Muir and 179 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 2: Jonathan Carl ABC News, the President is, you know, the 180 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: first five ten minutes is the President coming down the aisle, 181 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 2: shaking hands, taking selfies, people greeting him. And at one 182 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 2: point he got to the Supreme Court justices and David 183 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 2: Muir and Jonathan Carl to fake news guys, especially Carl said, 184 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 2: look at that he refused to shake hands with Amy 185 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 2: coney Barrett. He shook hands with Kavanaugh, but not with 186 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 2: Amy coney Barrett, who voted against him. Well, they got 187 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 2: that wrong. He did shake hands with Amy coney Barrett. 188 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: Now I'll give them a little pass on this, because 189 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: there was a woman that down the aisle with President Trump. 190 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 2: She was some kind of aid coming down the aisle 191 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 2: with him, like escorting him. She looks exactly like Amy 192 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 2: coney Barrett. So if you were looking fast, you see 193 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 2: him shake Kabanough's hand and the woman is standing there, 194 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: and he doesn't shake her hand. But the woman is 195 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 2: with him, he wouldn't shake her hand, So it was 196 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: an honest mistake, probably because she does. It's unbelievable the 197 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 2: resemblance there. So hey, you know what's interesting the South 198 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: Street Seaport. You ever been there? I see most people 199 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 2: haven't been there for like thirty forty years. They've been 200 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: trying to get the South Street Seaport going here in Manhattan, 201 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 2: you know, the meatpacking district was a dangerous, isolated, terrible place. 202 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 2: And then the great Irwin Cohen, the great New York 203 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 2: legendary builder, built the Chelsea Market and it started to 204 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 2: really take off, and then the whole everything took off 205 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 2: around it, and that created the Meatpacking District, and to 206 00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 2: this day it's one of the hottest places of men 207 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 2: go down to. The Meatpacking District was a million great restaurants, hotels, stores, 208 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: great stores and everything is there. Everything in the Chelsea Market, 209 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 2: the whole first floors like an enormous food court. Millions 210 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 2: of people down there go down to Tribeca. It's been 211 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 2: so they've been trying to do this with the South 212 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 2: Street Seaport for about forty years now years ago. Remember 213 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 2: it was a late eighties early nineties Dinkins administration. They're 214 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 2: trying to really get the South Street Seaport to take off. 215 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 2: Remember Carolines was a big comedy club downtown and they 216 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 2: got her to close and moved to the big, big, 217 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: big comedy club at South Street Seaport and she opened 218 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 2: there and other stuff. I loved restaurants open there. There 219 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: was Roeblings. There was all these great restaurants South Street Seaport, 220 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 2: and one by one they all went out of business 221 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: because nobody wanted to go down there. And Carolines closed 222 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: and moved the Times Square where it flourished. So it 223 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: never worked that South Street Seaport. So about was it 224 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 2: five years ago? They decided to get it going again, 225 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: and they built with the tin building, and they got 226 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 2: all these top restaurants and they got John George to 227 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 2: come down there and open the most incredible food hall 228 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: ever and an amazing restaurant. Yeah it was twenty twenty two. 229 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: Was that four years ago? And it was ten years 230 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 2: in the making, big real estate guys, that we'll get 231 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: this South Street Seaport going again. Ten years they worked 232 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 2: on this, poured hundreds of millions of dollars into this, 233 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: even though John John George deal was for two hundred million. 234 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 2: So he opened it was going to be like Italy 235 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 2: or the Chelsea Marty opened this incredible food hall, restaurants, unbelievable, luxurious, beautiful, unbelievable. 236 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 2: Well it all closed last week. It all closed down. 237 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 2: It's gone, it's closed. They couldn't get it going again. 238 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: Just total lack of foot traffic. People blamed the ice 239 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 2: relatively remote location along the East River. It's too far 240 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 2: away from anybody commuting. It's not convenient to any subways 241 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 2: and anything you think about the Chelsea market there's like 242 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 2: twelve subways that go right there. It's easy to get to. 243 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 2: It's right next to the village. It's right next to 244 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 2: so soho. Try back South streets. She boards like the 245 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 2: middle of nowhere. They cannot get it going. It was 246 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 2: kind of the same with Hudson Yards, although Hudson Yards 247 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,239 Speaker 2: is different. Hutson Yards has a lot of apartment buildings 248 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 2: an office building, so you got a bunch of people 249 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: that are there anyway, and it's not that isolated. It's 250 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: like a few blocks from Penn Station. But South Street Seaport. 251 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: I don't know what they're going to ever do at 252 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 2: that place. Hey, Martin Short, this is just terrible. Another 253 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 2: great tragedy in Hollywood. Martin Short, his daughter Catherine killed herself. 254 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 2: She was only forty. They just had a big birthday 255 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: party for big splashy birthday party at a restaurant with 256 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: Goldie Hawn was there, Catherine O'Hara, Joni Mitchell. That was 257 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 2: the's idol. Joni Mitchell even named her dog after Joni Mitchell. 258 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 2: Fortieth birthday party and his daughter, Katherine was a social 259 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 2: worker and then went later to her apartment committed suicide. 260 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: TMZ reported she was found dead with a self inflicted 261 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: gunshot wound. It's just horrible, Martin Short, you know. And 262 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 2: Martin Short, he's been through a lot of death. His 263 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: former wife died, his brother died, his parents died, and 264 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 2: now now they say that the daughter was suffering from 265 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 2: some sort of mental illness and had problems all along. 266 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 2: So we'll see what he says. He hasn't really commented yet. Hey, 267 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 2: an American Airlines plane lands in Miami. It had been 268 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 2: in Colombia, in South South America, Columbia. It lands in Miami. 269 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 2: You know, when a plane lands, they do a quick inspection, 270 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 2: you see what mostly to clean the planet. But it 271 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 2: lands from Colombia. During the inspection, they find a number 272 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 2: of bullet holes. Bullet holes in the plane from Columbia. Now, 273 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 2: if you hit the right stuff, in fact, it hit 274 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 2: the right aleron whichever that is, which helps control the 275 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 2: balance of the plane, it can cause a crash if well. Luckily, 276 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 2: with all these bullet holes it didn't and the plane 277 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 2: was able to land. Okay, Hey, we'll take some calls. Next. 278 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten is the 279 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 2: number eight hundred three two one zero seven ten
