1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,160 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to the Carol Marcowitz Show. I'm a 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: columnist at The New York Post and Fox News, co 3 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,239 Speaker 1: author of the best selling book Stolen Youth, and I'm 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 1: so excited to join the Clay and Buck podcast network 5 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: on iHeartRadio. For years, people asked me why I didn't 6 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 1: have a podcast, and you know, I'd be on radio 7 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: and TV a lot, but I didn't want to add 8 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: another podcast to the pile. I didn't want to do 9 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: news of the day or have interviews or people where 10 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 1: they discussed the news of the day. I felt like 11 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: there were a lot of people doing that, some like 12 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck doing it exceptionally well, and I didn't 13 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: have anything to add. So what I realized was that 14 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: people want to hear about other things. And my most 15 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: popular columns and conversations were when I'd get into cultural 16 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: and social issues. What's marriage really like? Why are we 17 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,599 Speaker 1: lied to about what it's like to have children? What 18 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: does it mean to succeed in your career? I call 19 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: these the kinds of conversations that make people really lean 20 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: in and listen. It's not background conversation, it's the stuff 21 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: that really matters that I haven't seen other people cover 22 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: in their podcasts, So that's what we're going to do here. 23 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: My format is going to be a short monologue or 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: two followed by a conversation. You might know the people 25 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: I'm interviewing, you might not, but you're going to hear 26 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: them get asked questions they've never been asked before. You'll 27 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: hear me ask successful people whether they feel like they've 28 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: made it. We'll talk about advice that they have, whether 29 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: about career or life in general. We're going to talk 30 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: about relationships, how to make them work, how to find 31 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: the right person, how to keep the spark alive, what 32 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: matters in marriage, Why sex is the most important part 33 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: of a relationship. And I feel like a lot of 34 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: people are going to challenge me on that one. But 35 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: I have some thoughts why the joy of children is 36 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: so impossible to convey. I'll tell you a little bit 37 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: about myself. I was born in the Soviet Union and 38 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: grew up in Brooklyn, New York. I'm married to an 39 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: immigrant from Israel who grew up in Queens. You know, 40 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: two immigrant kids from the boroughs of New York. We 41 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: finished building our dream house in Brooklyn and fully moved 42 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: in March of twenty twenty. We were New York supremacists. 43 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: We were never leaving until COVID exposed some things about 44 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: our beloved city that we just could not unsea. So 45 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: my husband and I, along with our three children, picked 46 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: up and moved to South Florida. In January, it will 47 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: be two years that we are Floridians. We're part of 48 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: a larger migration around this country from places like New 49 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: York and California, two places like Texas and Florida and 50 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: Tennessee and other states. We've loved Florida so much. We're 51 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: really so happy here. But on this pod, we'll discuss 52 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: what a move like that really means. You know, a 53 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: lot of people make moves after high school, after college, 54 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: but what's it like to have to restart your life 55 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: in a new place as an adult? How do you 56 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: do that? How do you make friends? How do you 57 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 1: find your people? Things that I love include poker, whiskey, travel, 58 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: talking to people. That's probably my favorite. I love meeting 59 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: new people, and I'm married to curmudgeon who is not 60 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: super into that. So you guys will be my outlet 61 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: as I talk to everybody as much as I want. 62 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: I imagine I'll be talking about all of these things 63 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: from time to time, and I'll also be taking your 64 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: questions and offering my advice if you want it.
