44
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: kooky rallies in New York City, which you're still allowed

45
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: to wear masks at. You are still allowed to wear

46
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: complete Halloween costumes in New York City. Protest after protest

47
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: after protest after protest, after near terrorists. This could have

48
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: been so bad, but you're still allowed to show up

49
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: at these fucking events. I don't care what side you're on.

50
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:47,239
Speaker 1: With your complete hands, body, face covered, sunglasses, beekeeper hats, gloves, everything,

51
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: you don't know if it's a guy, a girl, white, black,

52
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,239
Speaker 1: there's no way to get the description on these people.

53
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: I don't understand why that hasn't been taken away. Protest

54
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: all you want, lee freedom of speech, of course, I'm

55
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: all for it. But I feel like with the climate

56
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: and the culture continuing to get hotter and hotter and

57
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: hotter and we are just so close this thing that

58
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 1: happened at Gracie Mansion. If those IEDs, those bombs, those

59
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:33,119
Speaker 1: handmade bombs, would have blown up five minutes, ten minutes

60
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: from where me, Michael Rockport aka the Gringo man Dingo,

61
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 1: aka the Disruptive Warrior, where I live, where I'm from,

62
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: If that had happened, this would have been very very,

63
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: very very very bad. I don't understand why, at the

64
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: very least, Kathy Hochel, if people want to protest, they

65
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: can't cover their faces completely. You want to cover your

66
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: face completely, that is not a legal protest. I don't

67
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: understand why this is continuing to be a discussion to

68
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: be a thing in New York City. But I will

69
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: say this, but ro Kashem that those handmade explosions, which

70
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: these two isis loving creeps, kookie bastards wanted to be

71
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: bigger than the Boston Marathon bombing. Unquote. If they had

72
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: any luck, they would have gotten their wish. Who knows

73
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: what would have happened. But I will say this, as crazy,

74
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 1: as crazy and as bad as I thought things would be.

75
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 2: With the.

76
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: Double talking, side talking smile con artist rhetoric of zoron

77
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: the moron. I will say. I was talking to my wife,

78
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: was talking to my friend this morning. I said, even

79
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: with all the things that I thought, I feel like

80
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: right now, he has superseded our expectations. He has superseded

81
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: our expectations in New York City. He's worse than I

82
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: could have imagined. He's worse than we thought. He's worse

83
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: than my worst rant ever would have predicted. His wife

84
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: just last week was caught. She was busted. I know

85
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: she was like, fuck, how did they find out that

86
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: I liked over one hundred social media posts on and

87
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: around October seventh? I thought we scrubbed the account babe,

88
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: I know, his wife said to Zoron the moro on.

89
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: Didn't we get the accounts scrubbed, babe? Well they didn't.

90
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: They didn't scrub the fucking accounts, and you are busted.

91
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: Imagine on October seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, the days following

00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,559
Speaker 1: murderous fucks, they did not try to hide the evidence.

00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 1: Imagine liking that shit when you're seeing women being beaten

103
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: on the back of trucks. Imagine liking that shit when

104
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: you're seeing entire neighborhoods being set on fire. Imagine liking

105
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: posts with that. Imagine if the Mayor of New York's

106
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: wife liked posts the day that that woman was killed

107
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: in Minnesota a few months ago by ice. Imagine liking

108
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: posts the day that the videotape of George Floyd being

109
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,599
Speaker 1: killed came out. Imagine liking not just one post, not

110
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: just two posts, over seventy posts. Imagine that shit. Imagine

111
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 1: liking the posts if you saw one of these world

112
00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: Star videos of like a dog getting hit a car,

113
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: It's the same thing. This is a sicko. This is

114
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: a sicko. The whole house is sick. Gracie Mansion has

115
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 1: been taken over and is now being occupied by not one,

116
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: but two sick funks. Because we've heard Zora on the moron.

117
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: He's with it. Also, he's spoken these words also. And

118
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: some people might be like, well, Mike Rap, you're talking

119
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: about the man's wife. The man's wife is the one

120
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: liking the posts. Behind every radical jihatist, terrorist sympathizing man

121
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: is a sicker, stronger, terrorist loving, radical jihadist, sick fuck woman.

122
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,719
Speaker 1: I'll say it again, Behind every sick fucking man is

123
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 1: a radical, sick fucking woman. And that's what we got

124
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: in Gracie Mansion right now. And this guy keeps weaponizing

125
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 1: the fact that he's Muslim, as if New Yorkers aren't

126
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: accustomed to being around each and every type from each

127
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: and every place all over the world. Seeks Indians, Jamaicans, Haitians, Cubans, Germans, Russians, Catholics, Christians, Atheist, Jews.

128
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: You're not the first Muslim in New York City. You

129
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: think you invented Islam, Zoran the Morun, You didn't invent

130
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 1: this shit. You're not the first Muslim that we've seen

131
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:56,719
Speaker 1: in New York City. But every opportunity he gets, he

132
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: talks about Islamophobia, the Islamophobia he's faced, the Islamophobia, his

133
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 1: anti faced I don't think you've dealt with it. I

00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: this shit? We know you're black, we know you're Muslim.

155
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: What the fuck have you done for me lately? Miles

156
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: Jordan play the clip today that he played making this

157
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: entire isis inspired attack about Islama phobia and him being

158
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: the first Muslim mayor in New York City. Good morning.

159
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 4: On Saturday, a protest was held outside Grace. He mentioned

160
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 4: where I live with my wife Rama. Neither of us

161
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 4: were home at the time. This was a vile protest

162
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 4: rooted in white supremacy, entitled stop the Islamic Takeover of

163
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 4: New York City. I'm the first Muslim mayor of our city.

164
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 4: Anti Muslim bigotry is nothing new to me, nor is

165
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 4: it anything new for the one million or so Muslim

166
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: New Yorkers who know this city as our home.

167
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: Was David Dinkins weaponizing reminding us at least once a

168
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: week that he was the first black mayor of New

169
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: York City? Is Pistol Pete Buddhiceck going around reminding us

170
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: that he's gay? Was Barack Obama going around? I mean

171
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: this is crazy to me. This is crazy. I think

172
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 1: instead of calling Zoran the moron, mister mayor, I think

173
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: when you address him, you should say, first, Muslim mayor

174
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: of New York City, who has dealt with a lot

175
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: of Islamo phobia your entire life, Zorn the moron Mendami,

176
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: instead of saying mister mayor, mister Mendami. That's how we

177
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: should talk to him. That's how we should address him.

178
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: First Muslim mayor of New York City, who has dealt

179
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: with unbearable, unthinkable amounts of Islamophobia your entire life. What

180
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: do you think of this? What do you think of that?

181
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: He's daring us to criticize him. He is daring us

182
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: to insult him because any conversation, any insult, any criticism

183
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: you have him. He's looking for any micro, tiny, single

184
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: way he could go see. It's Islamophobia. It's not islama phobia.

185
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: It's asshole phobia. It's liar phobia, it's double talking con

186
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: artist phobia. It's a Islamophobia phobia. It's just you. We

187
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: don't care about your race, your religion. You did not

188
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: event Islam. You are not the first Muslim person to

189
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: walk around the streets of New York. You went to

190
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: private school. You went to Bronx Science, you went to

191
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: Bodwin College. I know you weren't dealing with any bullshit

192
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: at Bronx Science, Bank Street School for Children and Bodwin College. Fantastic.

193
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: You're the first Muslim mayor of New York. We don't

194
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: like you, and it has nothing to do with that

195
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: or any of that shit.

196
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 2: Podcast.

202
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: or a town of Phoenix. I think I performed there before.

203
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: I know I performed at Phoenix. I'm not sure if

Speaker 1: about the weather. It's fucking crazy, how nice it is.

207
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: It's like t shirt weather today. Never thought this winter

208
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 1: was gonna end, Never thought that there's still snow. I

209
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: don't understand why there's still snow. I don't understand why

Speaker 1: see me live, and tell a friend who tell a

213
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: friend about the I Am or Rapaport stereo podcast. What

214
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: else is going on? I have to say that this

215
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: war with Iran, and you know, the people of Iran

216
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: and the people in Israel that have spent the last

217
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 1: ten days in and out, in and out, in and out,

218
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: in and out literally sometimes fifteen sixteen times a day,

219
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: in and out of bomb shelters that I me. I

220
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 1: could just say that I'm thinking about all of the

221
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: Israeli people, all of the Jewish people in Israel, the

222
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: Iranian community that is under siege, and I'm just praying

223
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: that this war ends as soon as possible and the

224
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 1: job is finished once and for all, and the casualties

225
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: are no more. But I was talking to my friend

226
00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: in Israel today and we got on four phone calls

227
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: because the first three times her and her family had

228
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: to run into a ma mod A bombshelter, I couldn't

229
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: believe the shit, Like we're talking and then you hear who,

230
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: and then they gotta go. And then she called back

231
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: like twenty minutes later, woo oh shit, Mike, it's happening again.

232
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: And then it happened a third time. This was in

233
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: the span of ninety minutes. It's been all day, all night.

234
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: And if there's any of the Israeli Rapa pack listening,

235
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 1: just know that I'm thinking about you, I'm praying, and

236
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that you guys get a good night's sleep

237
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 1: tonight and you rest easy because you deserve it. And

238
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of stuff. What we see on

239
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: social media's younger people, they show themselves running into bombshelters

240
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 1: in israelis they're a different breed. They're a different kind

241
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:03,719
Speaker 1: of person in the Middle East. And I'm not an

242
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: expert on how to explain how to articulate why and

243
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: how they're exactly different, but they're just on some resilient

244
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: shit and Jewish people they just shine light. And when

245
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 1: you grow up fighting, and you grow up fighting for

246
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,680
Speaker 1: your life, and you grow up in this culture, there's

247
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: a dark, sort of comedic view of it, and so

248
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: many people on social media they post these dark, very funny,

249
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: comedic views of what it's like to be in Israel

250
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: right now during a war but I could tell you

251
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 1: something that it ain't just you know, the social media stuff,

252
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: Like when I'm talking to my friend and she's in

253
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: there with her kids, the fear is so tangible, and

254
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 1: you know, I can't imagine like being a five year old,

255
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: a seven year old and this becomes a normal thing.

256
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: And there's so many older people. There's so many people

257
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: that can't move around quickly. And you know, you're told

258
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: you have like eight to ten minutes to get to

259
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: the shelter. That ain't easy when it's fifteen times a

260
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: day and you're ninety something years old, or you have

261
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 1: some sort of injury, or you have a bad hip,

262
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: or you have a whatever, or you've been doing it

263
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: for a week and you haven't slept. It's not fucking easy.

264
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 1: And I'm sure I can't imagine the fear that it

265
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: instills in so many people. So I just have to

266
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: say something about that because it just it makes me sick.

267
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: It makes me sick that so many people are living

268
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: like that and unfortunately have become accustomed to living like that.

269
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: I don't like it. What else is going on a

270
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: lot of movement. Big Mike Evans signed with the forty

271
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: nine ers Max Crosby, that goon from the Las Vegas

272
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 1: Raiders signed with the Baltimore Ravens, and uh, the NBA

273
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: is is heating up. They gotta do something about these

274
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: these fouls a SGA Shay Gildris as Luca. They have

275
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: to figure out a way to fix this. There's too

276
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 1: much discussion every season for the last few seasons about

277
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: the the whining, the complaining, the crying about the offensive

278
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: fouls when they're cold, when they're not cold, why they're called,

279
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 1: what you can do, what you can't do? And we

280
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 1: watch game after game after game after game after game

281
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: during the regular season and then in the playoffs, it's

282
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 1: a completely different style of basketball. It's I don't know,

283
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: it's weird. It's weird, and it's not consistent. And they

284
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: have to figure out a way to split the difference.

285
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 1: They have to figure out a way that I don't know.

286
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: They have to figure out a way to stop it

287
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: where you can't just be taking advantage of the refs

288
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: and taking advantage of the rules. In the meantime, take

289
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: advantage of the rest and take advantage of the rules.

290
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 1: But Adam Silver, you gotta squaltch his shit, and like

291
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 1: I said, we watched this during the regular season, and

292
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: as soon as the playoff starts, it's like a different

293
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 1: It's almost like a different sport. It becomes like a

294
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: completely different sport. But the NBA is heating up, and

295
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: the NBA is and always will be fantastic, despite all

296
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 1: the bullshit, despite all the complaining, despite all the critics

297
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: like myself, despite all the fact that there's seventeen different

298
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: streaming channels where you have to figure out and find

299
00:23:43,440 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: game after gamet. Something I'm sure I'm going to talk

300
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: about on rapper Portruyality. If you've never listened to rap Portsryality.

301
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: It's a podcast that my wife Keeby and I drop

302
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: weekly about all things reality TV, all things popular culture,

303
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: and a few very very very very very very very

304
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 1: important things about our relationship. Definitely a more lighthearted podcast,

305
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: Definitely a more It's not as fire and furious. It's

306
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 1: more lighthearted. Definitely more lighthearted. You should check out rapper

307
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 1: ports Reality if you've never listened to it. But we

308
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: were watching this John F. Kennedy Caroline Bassett Carolyn Carolyn

309
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: Bassett Kennedy series on FX called Love Story about their

310
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 1: relationship and his relationship with his mom and just you

311
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: know what it was like being the son of such

312
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: a beloved Marria figure like John F.

313
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 2: Kennedy.

314
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 1: And I will say, I think it's really good, it's

315
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: really entertaining. It's not perfect by any means. The girl

316
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: who plays Beset, I think she's really good. The guy

317
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 1: who plays John F. Kennedy Junior has been getting a

318
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 1: lot of criticism. It's not easy. I can't even imagine

319
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 1: how hard it must have been to cast that part,

320
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: in particular because John John, I mean, he was so

321
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 1: beloved and so well known for first and foremost his looks.

322
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: I mean, he just was like a supermodel looking dude,

323
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,160
Speaker 1: and we got so used to seeing him in magazines.

324
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: We got so used to seeing him on the cover

325
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: of you know, the Daily News, the New York Post,

326
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: the Sexiest Man Alive. I think he's a two to

327
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 1: three time Sexiest Man Alive guy, But we didn't hear

328
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:58,639
Speaker 1: him talk. There wasn't as much access to any celebrity

329
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: or famous person back then as there was now, so

330
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,679
Speaker 1: I can't imagine how hard it was to find somebody

331
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: that has the looks and then I guess the personality.

332
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: But while I'm watching and I'm thinking, I don't know

333
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: what John F. Kennedy sounded like. I think most people

334
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,400
Speaker 1: didn't know what his voice sounded like because you didn't

335
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: hear him talk that much. Number One, because he was

336
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 1: very private. Number Two, because he was just a guy.

337
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: You know, the fame in the obsession, it was like

338
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: an obsession with him, understandably because of him and his

339
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: mother Jackie Oh. Respectfully, it was insane, the obsession with

340
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 1: him and that family and the scrutiny, and you know,

341
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: not to talk about him so much, but talk about

342
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 1: the show. It's very well done. It's not perfect. I

343
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: think that the acting is good. It sometimes it's can't

344
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: be sometimes it's sort of soap operay. That being said,

345
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 1: I'm enjoying it. It's also very nostalgic about that time

346
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: in the nineties, and the music is very good and

347
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: at the core of it when I think they get right,

348
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of talk of what they got wrong,

349
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: and this piece of wardrobe and you know, these cabs

350
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: didn't exist in New York City at that time, and

351
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: this graffiti wasn't on the wall, and you know, they're

352
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: carrying coffee cumps down the street in New York and

353
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: at the time, there wasn't this that. And the third

354
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,199
Speaker 1: the thing that I feel like they did get very

355
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: well is the love story, because it's such a tragic,

356
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: fucking love story. It's such a tragic story, the Kennedy

357
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:38,360
Speaker 1: story in John F. Kennedy Junior's story and never really

358
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: knowing your father, and he talks about at one point

359
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: in the film, you know, like seeing the photos of him,

360
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 1: the iconic photos of his father and him, he forgets

361
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: as he became an adult, what was his own memories

362
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: and what were things that became memories of him, sort

363
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 1: of looking at photos because he was six I think

364
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: he was six years old and his father was assassinated

365
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: on that fateful day in Dallas. Anyway, if you're looking

366
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 1: for something fun and good to watch despite its flaws,

367
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: because like I said, I will say that there's flaws

368
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 1: in it, I'm finding very good, very very entertaining, and

369
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: very moving. And I just thinking about that day and

370
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: that time. I remember it was a Saturday morning when

371
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: we found out that they may have had a plane crash.

372
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: And then it was announced, you know, either that morning

373
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: or that afternoon that John F. Kennedy Junior, who again

374
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 1: I didn't know much about, but you knew about you

375
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: knew of him because he was so famous and just

376
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: so much a part of the fabric of that part

377
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: of the nineties. But I remember that day, that Saturday morning,

378
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: hearing about the news, finding out about the news, and

379
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: then coming back to New York, and there was just

380
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: a sadness because he was a New Yorker. You know,

381
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: you can say he you know, didn't do this, he

382
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: didn't do that. He was such a part of New

383
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 1: New York. And he was one of the first people

384
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: to live in Tribeca, him and Robert de Niro, and

385
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: I remember at the time, you know, Tribeca the area

386
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: was you know, starting to become cool because de Niro,

387
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: because Mirro Max Films was down there, and because of

388
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: John F. Kennedy Junior. It was really those three. It

389
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: was DeNiro, Harvey kin tell you knew where they lived.

390
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 2: You knew that.

391
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: Mirror Max was down there, and you also knew that

392
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: eventually that the sushi place, Nobu Nobu opened up down there.

393
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 1: There was like a you know, it was like sort

394
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: of this this new part of New York that was

395
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: flourishing and you know, being built up and DeNiro, Mirra

396
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,719
Speaker 1: Max and John F. Kennedy were the people that were

397
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: most associated with it. And I remember one time. I

398
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: never saw John F. Kennedy in New York. I never

399
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: saw him in real life, but I remember one time

400
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: we rode our bikes down there the week that he

401
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: had passed, and there was such a There was so

402
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: many people outside and photographers and cameras, and you know,

403
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: there was flower outside, and I just remembered it was

404
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: just a sadness, because uh, what a sad life, what

405
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: a sad, sad, sad sad story. And they were just
