1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,359
Speaker 1: Give woor a bre said on the iHeartRadio app.

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 2: To hear Mark Simone and all the WR hosts in

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 2: an instance.

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 1: Now back to the Mark Simon show on wor.

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 3: Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to a bill

6
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 3: in New Jersey. Bill, how you doing?

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 4: Hello?

8
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 5: Mark?

9
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 6: You know I just heard Mandami Belly aching about funding.

10
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 6: We need this, we need that, we need money. Without it,

11
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 6: we're going to collapse. And it reminds me of all

12
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 6: in the Family Day's TV show when they sang everybody

13
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 6: pulled their weight, and back when I grew up, everybody

14
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 6: pulled their weight. There were no bloodsucking people for the

15
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 6: most part. But I'm thinking how did all this happen?

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 6: And I'm thinking about you know, in the eighties, crack

17
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 6: became very big, Cocaine became very big, and you had

18
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 6: these crack moms having babies. Now the thirty five, forty

19
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 6: five years old, they don't work, they want to bloodshot

20
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 6: more money, and it comes down to give us more,

21
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 6: give us more. What the hell happened?

22
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 3: Mark? Well, it's a lot of things all at once.

23
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 3: First of all, you had these universities that over the

24
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: last few decades became so left wing. They became these

25
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 3: socialist and doctrination camps. Then you had fake news just

26
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 3: get more and more and more corrupt, covering everything up.

27
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 3: And then you had the Democratic Party shift from the

28
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 3: party of the working class to U Let's get everybody

29
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 3: on marijuana, on weed, Let's get everybody on welfare, Let's

30
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,919
Speaker 3: get everybody on government programs. That way, they'll be obligated

31
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 3: to us, they'll vote for us. It was just all

32
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 3: this stuff coming together. How do you fix it? I

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 3: don't know. I mean, can you imagine if Donald Trump

34
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 3: wasn't there this tough street fighter battling this. Imagine if

35
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: you had a tame, mild politician trying to fight this.

36
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 3: Let's go to Pete and Marlborough. Pete, how you doing.

37
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 2: I'm doing well, Mark.

38
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 5: I have a question.

39
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, all these people, let Tisia James call me. When

40
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 2: are they going to be prosecuted? I don't understand, or

41
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 2: when are they going to go to trial? They keep

42
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: on delaying this, and you know, I'm sure was frustrated

43
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 2: with BONDI.

44
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think it's the problem with Letitia James.

45
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 3: They keep going in these left wing courts and they

46
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,119
Speaker 3: don't delay the case gets tossed out, so they keep

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 3: looking at other cases they're trying. It's not easy, you know,

48
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 3: it's it's a pretty slanted legal system too. Call me

49
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 3: definitely a slimy guy, but you're right, so far, they

50
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 3: haven't actually made any progress on any of these. Let's

51
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 3: go to John in New York. John, how you doing?

52
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 4: Hey?

53
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 5: Mark? A quick question. You know, I'm a Trump supporter,

54
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 5: as you know, and I just I know how I

55
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 5: know that. Well, I am question. Why did President Trump

56
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 5: put his name on the Kennedy Center. I mean, I'm

57
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 5: with Trump on ninety nine percent of the issues, but

58
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 5: I don't agree with slapping your name sitting president.

59
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 3: Well, he didn't do it. He didn't do it. The

60
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 3: board of the Kennedy Center voted to do it. Now,

61
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 3: it's mostly a frenzy iss who were appointed to the board,

62
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: But I think one reason they wanted to do it

63
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 3: was they didn't realize this until they got there. The

64
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 3: Kennedy Center was in total disrepair, crumbling, the building in

65
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 3: total decay. Trump came in and fixed it, turned it around.

66
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,119
Speaker 3: That's why they wanted to do that for him. Does

67
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 3: that help?

68
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 5: Okay?

69
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 4: All right?

70
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 5: Thank you? Mark?

71
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 3: Okact So it's a little of noxious to go put

72
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 3: your name on everything, but that's Trump. He's been doing

73
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: it all his life. Every building was Trump tower, Trump Palace,

74
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 3: Trump this, Trump that. It's a little of noxious, but

75
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 3: it's it's the Trump style. Well, let's go to Bob

76
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: in Montvale, New Jersey.

77
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: Bob, how you doing hanging in there? Mark? Thanks? You

78
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: noticed Lakewood School District story will never make you know

79
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: News twelve at a Bergen Record.

80
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 3: What what story you're talking about?

81
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: Lakewood School System was taken over by so Mercy today

82
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: because they are bankrupt now in New Jersey here fifty.

83
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 3: I hate to break it to you, this is not

84
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 3: the most exciting story. That's why it doesn't get that

85
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 3: much publicity.

86
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: Well, it will be in New Jersey when we pay

87
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 1: the tax.

88
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 3: Well all right, but you know there might be something

89
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: going on in Ice Loup Long Island. That's a big

90
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 3: thing there. But it's not going to be a big story.

91
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: Oh did he hang up? He hung up? He don't

92
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 3: I hurt your feelings. I don't mean it. It's just

93
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 3: you know, in the newspaper, in the newsroom of the

94
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 3: TV networks, they have these editorial board meetings where you're

95
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 3: come in and you pitch stories, and when you pitch this,

96
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 3: the room does not light up at the thought of

97
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 3: this story. It's not that exciting. Let's go to lou

98
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 3: In Queen's lou How you doing?

99
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 2: And Mark?

100
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 4: I think I love Steve Moore. I mean I agree

101
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 4: with his economic opinions on a lot of stuff. But

102
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 4: you know, I think you and I are right. I

103
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 4: think the credit card company should have a cap on

104
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 4: their interest rates which charge.

105
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I mean that's my but what the hell

106
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 3: do I know? I mean, Steve Moore is a more

107
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 3: of an expert on this. You could put a cap

108
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 3: on how much interest they can charge, But then what

109
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: that would mean. The effect would be they wouldn't give

110
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 3: credit cards to a lot of people, a lot less

111
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 3: people would be able to get a credit card, and

112
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 3: it would have a bad effect on us if it'd

113
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 3: be mostly the lower and lower income people that couldn't

114
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 3: get a credit card, and it would have a negative effect.

115
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: So again, we're not expert. Steve Moore actually is can

116
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 3: do all the big calculations on this. Hey, when we

117
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 3: come back, Jimmy Fayla will be with us. One of

118
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 3: our favorite moments of the week, Jimmy Fayla every Thursday.

119
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 3: We'll talk to him next on seven to ten wor
