FULL SHOW: Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree lighting; Benjamin Netanyahu speaks out.

The Democrats are using the recent drug boat strike as an opportunity to portray Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth as part of a broader issue, criticizing the Trump Administration for decisions that conflict with their views. This comes on the heels of President Trump’s controversial comments referring to Somali immigrants as “garbage,” which prompted a strong response from Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, who condemned the remarks as racially motivated and deeply hurtful. Mark interviews Roger Friedman of Showbiz411.The two attended an exclusive event last night at a Manhattan restaurant, where they mingled with several celebrities and gained unique insights into their lives. Notably, Roger had the chance to sit down with filmmaker Woody Allen to discuss how things are going for him, and the conversation was positive and engaging. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel has announced plans to visit New York City, though it remains unclear whether he will meet with Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani. The ongoing debate around “Trump Derangement Syndrome” taking over anti-Trumpers’ minds is being highlighted deeper and deeper as the weeks go on. Manhattan psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert is reportedly receiving death threats for speaking out on the topic. Mark interviews WOR weeknight host Jimmy Failla. The two try to understand why Mayor-Elect Mamdani participated in a Starbucks workers’ strike earlier in the week over work-life balance. Additionally, they touch on recent warnings from left-wing media figures about the threat Russia may pose to the United States and beyond.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fly from Midtown Manhattan. Here comes the Mark Simone Show
on seven tr.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Hey, we got a lot to get to today. The
war crimes hoax, it's almost over, so mahya, unbelievable fraud.
We'll get to the Christmas tree lighting. We'll get to
the New York Times. We'll get to Luigi Mangeon. You
know it's a year ago. It's the one year anniversary
of that horrible shooting. We'll get to Mom, Donnie and
Net and Yahoo, and we'll get to Trump's arrangement syndrome,

(00:32):
new research coming out about it. We'll get to Christmas
parties and a whole lot more so. The Democrats trying
everything you knownice. They abandoned Epstein. You haven't heard them
mentioned Epstein in two three weeks. They gave up on that.
It didn't test well, it didn't focus group well, it
wasn't working. They think the war crimes hoax, this will

(00:54):
take down the entire Trump administration, or at least get
rid of Pete Hexaf. It will do neither of those things.
Hex If is fine. He's not going anywhere, obviously. If
you're gonna blow up a drug boat, a coke boat,
a narco boat, as they call him. If you're going
after the car, tell to blow up the boat. You
drop a lot of bombs, not one. This new ridiculous,

(01:17):
preposterous Democrat rule that you're only allowed to one bomb,
one bomb. If you don't get him with the one bomb,
that's it doesn't make any sense. Anybody in the history
of warfare, any general, any leader, will tell you drop
a lot of bombs and try to wipe them out.
President Trump is just kind of laughing at this. He

(01:38):
kind of enjoys this. He likes when the Democrats come
up with a hoax where he knows it's not going
to work, and in the end it'll fizzle out. What's
today Thursday, They'll try it one last time. They'll try
it for another couple of days. They'll do it on
the Sunday shows, and then that's it. That'll be the
end of the war crimes hoax. They'll see it's going nowhere,
doesn't work. Signal Chat. They're trying to bring that back

(02:02):
with the Inspector General's report that Pete hagsf did actually
violate US classified information on the signal Chat. What a
violation now, actually, if you look down on the fine print,
it says, it's not actually anything wrong, And the Secretary

(02:22):
of Defense had the power at any time to declassify anything,
so it's up to him what he puts up there.
And as far as using the signal gate app, the
signal app that was standard operating procedure in the Pentagon,
it was in the Pentagon Manual to use it. It
was just fine. So this Inspector General's report means absolutely nothing.
It's coming way too late. Nobody even remembers this signal thing.

(02:46):
These things mean absolutely nothing. But if you're the democratic
echo chamber, the media democratic echo chamber MSNBCCNN, you need
these kind of things. It's like doing a drama on TV.
You create these little subplots and you create these little
things to talk about. So it's MSNBC. They got to

(03:08):
fill twenty four hours a day. Ms now. It's now
ms now. So they create this nonsense and they just
keep talking about it. And all the old ladies who
are the big Trump arrangement syndrome people, and all the
crazy left wingers can run around and talk about this
war crimes, signal Gate and yell and screaming about this.
Normal people don't know what the hell they're talking about

(03:30):
normal people are going to work, living their lives, watching
the football game. It didn't know anything about signal gate,
war crimes, Solks, what are you talking about? So it'll
go away now, you know. Starting what's today, Yeah, next
week it starts where it gets into the really heavy
Christmas party season. And every day if you're in Washington,

(03:51):
there's a million Christmas parties these people have to go to.
In Congress, in government, there's a million Christmas parties for
all the lobby the suppliers, the vendors, the contractors, that
all the people that they deal with. So they'll be
all snarled up and tied up for the next couple
of weeks with Christmas, and it's Congress, they take a

(04:11):
you know, like a million vacation days. They'll be gone
very early for Christmas, so you got another few days
and then they're all busy and gone and that's the
end of it. Nobody will be concentrating on anything. Even
the White House. There's a White House Christmas party every
night for the next couple of weeks, sometimes two or
three a night. They just do these NonStop Christmas parties.

(04:33):
So it's just about over Hey. The other big thing
is the Somalia story. The Somalian community in Minnesota, led
by Ilan Omar, committed massive fraud. It appears to be
a massive, massive fraud. A billion dollars went missing, and
all kinds of screen schemes, left wing schemes, pandemic schemes,

(04:55):
but all run by the crazy left wing of the
Minnesota Democrat. A lot of Somalians in there. They set
a billion dollars. But Mike Johnson, Congress is going to
look into this. It's staggering.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Tom Hemmer, of course, is from Minnesota, and he tells
us that it may be as much as two billion
dollars in broader Minnesota. And Tim Wallas has a lot
to answer for it. And Congress has a.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Lot of interest in this, and we're going to track
it down.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
And I think I think the authorities will as well.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah, so Congress will get to it. They'll be criminal charges.
Looks like it's going to be two billion, two billion.
He got the Somalian Democrats, Elon Omar and all these
people that did it. Now, of course they're Democrats. The
media will pay no attention to this, they'll bury the story,
never mention it. But you wonder when you watch Donald

(05:41):
Trump sometimes why does he say these things? Well, why
does he have to talk like that? Well, sometimes it's
very strategic. So he started talking about Omar, Somalia all
of this stuff, and he crossed the line she should
be allowed to be a congresswoman.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
And I'm sure people are looking at that, and she
should be throw on the hell out of our country.

Speaker 5 (06:01):
And most of those people they have destroyed Minnesota.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Okay, that's okay, now that part. See you stop right there. Yeah,
if you're that big of crook you're involved in that
bigger fraud, of course you should be thrown out of Congress.
And if it's that big of fraud in you defrauded
your community, of course you should be thrown out. Okay,
there's fine. But then he keeps going, We're going to.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage
into our country. Elan Omar is garbage.

Speaker 6 (06:25):
She's garbage, Her friends are garbage.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
These are people that work.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
These are people that say, let's go, come on, let's
make this place great. These are people that do nothing
but complain.

Speaker 7 (06:36):
They complain, and from where they came from, they got nothing.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
You know, if they came from Paradise.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
And they said, this isn't paradise.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
But when they come from hell and they complain and
do nothing.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
But bitch, we don't want them in our country. Okay,
you're not supposed to talk like that if you're the present.
But it's brilliant what he's done there. Brilliant. He's put
the media, the left wing in a real bine. Now
to them, that's racist, ethnic slur, really over the top, wrong, disgusting.

(07:14):
You can't talk like it. So they want to go
after him on this. They want to really go after
him on that stuff. But to do that, they got
to publicize the Somalia scandal, the two billion fraud. They
wanted to bury the story and hide it now because
they want to use this stuff again, so they're going
to have to go after it. So he's put them
in a real trap where now they have to cover

(07:36):
this story. So now it will get attention. Now, it
will go before Congress. Now they'll be hearing so brilliant
on the part of Donald Trump. Now people will always
complain they were doing this before he got into politics.
I remember, for the twenty years before he was in politicy,
same thing. He'd say things that were over the top,
that were outrageous. Let's supposed to talk like that. Why

(07:57):
does he have to say these things? But I was
thinking about this yesterday. If you go back, you know how,
you're on Twitter or you're somewhere online, and they show
you these clips. Look at what Obama said fifteen years ago,
and he's talking about we must close the border. We
got to get rid of these illegals. They'll always find
these clips. God, check out my Twitter right now. There's
a clip of Bernie Sanders twenty years ago sounding like Trump.

(08:20):
But we got to get rid of these illegals. We
can't let them in. They're taking jobs from America. So
you see all these clips of these Democrats, they try
to show you how hypocritical they are. That look what
they said back then. They said the same things Trump said.
They said. But you have to remember this is the
real difference between the Democrats and Trump. Democrats when they're
running will always say the right things. You watch Hillary

(08:42):
when she was running, you can see all this campaign video,
and Bill Clinton and Obama they said all the right
stuff when they were running. They said exactly what you
want them to say, exactly what they agree with you compleat.
Then they get elected, and they don't do any of it.
They don't do nothing. Trump is the opposite. He'll say
all the wrong things, but then he gets in office

(09:03):
and he actually gets everything done. He says all the
things you shouldn't say, but he gets it done. He
gets the job done, He does the right stuff. Democrats
are the opposite. When they're running, they'll say all the
right stuff, tell you all the right things. Then when
they get office, don't do a damn thing. It's like
mom Donnie with his affordability, and you got a few
of these, Mom Donnie's the one that ran in Nashville.

(09:25):
They'll run on affordability, affordability, affordability, and then watch when they
get in office. They'll not only do nothing about affordability,
everything ends up costing more. They'll do more damage to
the problem. So that's just a democratic thing. The same
thing with Newsom. Look at Newsom. He looks good, sounds good.
He's out there saying all the right stuff. Meantime he's
completely screwing up the state. You know, gas is three

(09:46):
dollars an hour, three dollars a gallon. That's the average
in America right now, three dollars a gallon in twenty
five states, it's below three dollars. In California it's six
fifty seven dollars. This is newsome say all the right
things but completely screw up. He's got the worst numbers,
the worst statistics, the worst affordability, the worst job lost.

(10:07):
But he says all the right things. And for some
reason that's fine with Democrats.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
They like that.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Now there's this new breed of Democrats among Donni's and
all these young they look good, sound good, their social
media influencers, they're great, they're charming, and all the new
Democratic voters are voting for this. They have no interest
in the old dinosaurs, these old you know, they look
at Chuck Schumer like he's a mummy, like he's an
old fossil, Like he's a like a corpse. They dug up.

(10:37):
He just looks a thousand years old.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
To them.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
He looks ridiculously outdated, even when he agrees with him,
even if he's talking about the bombing of the ships.

Speaker 7 (10:45):
If Trump were to order an attack on land, that
would be an act of war, and Congress would invoke
the War Powers Act. It's Congress's prerogative to go to war.
And I hope Republicans will defend that role.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
This is everything the new Democrats hate the voters now,
they hate this, oh, this old fossil. They want the
new breed, the mom Donnie's you know, Mom Donnie gets
on that social media and he talks a mile a
minute and he sounds brilliant. He talks really fast, he's
got a great smile, he looks charming, good looking. And
then you got this old shumer with the rumpled up
old suit, the old man glasses that are all fogged up,

(11:27):
and reading it off index cards. You know, to younger voters,
they've never even seen an index card. They don't know
what the hell these things he's holding. They don't write
anything down. Everything's digital to them. They've never seen an
index card. They don't know what it is. Where you
would get such a thing. Hey, last night was the
Christmas tree lighting. I don't know what the fuss is

(11:47):
about a Christmas tree lighting. It's beautiful to see the tree.
You could walk over there right now, it's right over there,
Rockefeller Center. You see the tree, magnificent, it's beautiful. But
the idea of watching the lighting of it, if you
went to someplace where they had beautiful lighting at a
restaurant you walked these. Wow, that's beautiful lighting. Look at that,
that's all you want to see? You could you turn

(12:08):
it off? I like to see it, turn it on,
the idea of turning a light on it. You want
to see it on. You don't want to see it
oft and then it's on. If this is that fascinating
to you to watch a tree lighting, and you couldn't
go to Rockefeller Center because you said there's ten thousand
people there. You can't get anywhere near there. It's a mess.
You can watch the tree lighting of the Rockefeller Centered
tree in person every morning at five am. You know,

(12:31):
they turn the lights off at midnight, then they turn
them back on at five am. So if you want
to see the tree lighting and Rockefeller Center seven days
a week, any morning, just go at five am. I'll
get there at ten of five or whatever, and then
you can see him turn the lights on. It's not
that exciting, but you can watch it. So this stuff
is getting bigger and bigger. More people watch this this.

(12:51):
You know, they used to do the tree lighting and
then you would you know, videotape it and chop it
up and it would be this little special on Channel
four seven o'clock to seven thirty. Then it got bigger,
went to the network. All of a sudden, it was
a network show, not just Channel four, and it became
like an hour. Now it's like two hours, three hours.
It's like the Grammy Awards, twelve famous singers and roquettes

(13:13):
and dancers. It's a massive primetime special and it gets
big ratings. We didn't get the rating set for last night,
but it'll be huge.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
You know.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade set a record this year.
The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade got unbelievable ratings. I think
it was twenty six million people, which is like the
most viewers for anything on television, like in seven years.
I think the last thing was an Oscar show that
did twenty six million. I mean outside of a sports event,

(13:42):
but unbelievable. How popular the parade is. Hey, speaking of TV,
Boston Blue just got renewed for season two. That's the
spinoff from the Great show Blue Blood. So it's only
been on. It was the seventh show this week, eighth show.
But it's got big ratings. They've already renewed it for
season two. Pretty good. Hey, the New York Times had

(14:06):
this big summit yesterday at Lincoln Center, the big conference
with the huge audience, and they had that wormy weasel
Andrew Sorkin moderated, and they had all kinds of big
guest speakers. But we give a lot of credit to
Scott Bessant, the great Scott Bessant, who told them off

(14:26):
right to their face right at the New York Times summit.
He said, I don't even read the New York Times anymore,
and he called Andrew Sorkin a pop historian, which is
really an insulting to him. Let me see if I
have the clip here, this is this is uh, this
is bessn't At the New York Times summit, you.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Had what was the greatest, one of the greatest scandals
of the all time, that the coverage of the Biden administration,
Joe Biden's diminished capacity and the cover up.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
To raise these questions.

Speaker 5 (14:59):
Where in New York Times we just had a three
hour cabinet meeting yesterday, Andrew, for ten months the Biden
administration did not have a cabinet meeting. How are you
going to invote the twenty fifth Amendment if the cabinet
secretaries never see the president, which they didn't.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
Now you actually go to my Twitter, you got to
actually watch the clips because Andrew ross Serkin is squirming,
absolutely squirming. He's all upset and everything best and is
saying it's driving him nuts. And at one point he says,
I just don't even read the New York Times anymore.
It's no longer the paper or record. This is right
at their Summit's a good for best and good job

(15:37):
on his part. Hey, Luigi, mansion trial, as I said,
it's taking place, trying to get the evidence tossed. He's
got some pretty good lawyers and some legal experts watch
and say, these guys have I don't you know, who
knows if they'll win these arguments, but they got some
pretty good arguments to get evidence tossed out of there.
It's going to be it's an interesting case already because
it's been one year. That's shooting. I remember we all

(15:59):
watched that. Remember the day had unfolded. It was one
year ago. But he's you know, it's democrats that love him,
so he's got fans and supporters cheering him every time
he comes in and out of the court. This is
a murderer, an executioner, an assassin, Democrats cheering him, young democrats,
you know, the whole nosering crowd. Women, they love this guy.

(16:21):
But it's a shooting. You know, if you're in New
York City, on the streets of New York, you're on
a surveillance camera. No matter where you are, all of Manhattan,
every inch is covered by surveillance cameras. So he shoots
the guy in the street and sidewalk and it's all recorded.
You can see him do it right. And so I
don't know how he thinks he's going to win this case.
I mean, we saw him do it right on camera.

(16:43):
But it's crazy New York City, crazy New York judges,
so who knows what could happen. Hey, we'll take some
calls in just a minute. Eight hundred three to two
one zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three
to two one zero seven ten.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Get instant access to Mark by setting a free set
in the iHeartRadio app for his live show and his podcast.
Now back to the Mark Simone show on woor.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Hey, let's take some calls. Eight hundred three to two
one zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three
two one zero seven ten. Let's go to Rich in
Myrtle Beach. Rich, How you doing pretty good?

Speaker 8 (17:23):
Thanks?

Speaker 6 (17:23):
Mark. You know, Trump is so far ahead of these people,
you know, he's he's got Democrats and the press defending
drug terrorists, defending some millions. He just keeps putting them
in a corner and they're just so stupid they can't
even see it. And then they got a kick out
of Martha Radice on ABC saying that the fishermen climbed
back into the boat and went communications with other drug deals.

(17:43):
That's why he got blown up the second time. So
she actually blew up their own hopes. It was shysterical
watching these people the way they behave.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, she's one of the funny, isn't it. Thanks for
calling rich This. Martha Raddits is this old, worn out,
weather beaten looking woman. You see her. She's the foreign
spoted but she's lately been the host of the Sunday
Morning Show a lot, and she's I was watching it yesterday. Well,
there's definitely a war crime. There's nobody that knows less
about war crime rules than Martha Radditt's. And the problem

(18:14):
is they all live in a bubble. All they know
is big Trump hating left wing Washington DC swamp people.
So if you live in this bubble and you're hearing
from the most biased people in the world, you're never
getting a straight story from anybody. So in this echo chamber,
it's all bobbleheads nodding at each other. It just reinforces
all these biases they have. Anyways, go to Mike in Florida. Mike,

(18:38):
how you doing, good morning, Mark, Yes, Mike.

Speaker 9 (18:42):
I'm going to echo what Rich just said. It's a
less than a year away from the midterms and the
Democrats have Hitchdale wagon to a very odd team of issues. Mangione,
the Somali.

Speaker 10 (18:53):
Thieves, the Venezuelan drug runners, the illegals in you know,
my migrading into the country, you know, calling for insurrection
for the army.

Speaker 9 (19:05):
You know, these basically stage are cool against against the president.

Speaker 10 (19:08):
And it's incredible that the communism and it's.

Speaker 9 (19:14):
The funny thing is none of those issues served their constituencies.
Their constituencies are the ones who were impacted most by
all of those supporting all of those things.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
Yeah, that's a good point, but this Trump derangement syndrome
has them all going crazy. And one of the problems
is years ago, the Democrats hashed the plot, will take
over the universities, will put in the most radical left
wing professors, and then to be able to get away
with that, we'll put in all the most left wing
people on the boards of trustees, left wing college presidents.

(19:46):
So they became these left wing, crazy, left wing doctrination centers,
and they raised generations of these people. Well, now that
they're all the voters, they have no interest in establishment Democrats.
They don't like Bill Clinton, they don't like Chuck Schumer,
they don't like these type of Democrats. They're young and
crazy and radical left, and that's what they like. So

(20:06):
they're going to vote for Donnie. They're going to vote
for that crazy woman in Tennessee, and they're going to
go for this nonsense. And the only people that are
hanging on are like the crazy radicals, Bernie Sanders sometimes
Elizabeth Warren, although these two aren't gonna do quite as
well because they are old, haggard looking people. So you're
going to see this shift to the left just go crazy. Now,

(20:29):
this always goes in cycle, so at some point it
might rebound. Twenty twenty six is the last shot that
Democrats have at taking out Trump. They they've got to
win in twenty twenty six to stop him. At least
if they win, he won't have Congress on his side.
If they have a Democratic Congress, they'll come after him

(20:50):
every second. They'll hold hearings every minute into him. They'll
impeach him every six months. That's the only shot they
got if they don't win in twenty twenty And usually
the opposing party wins in the midterm, no matter how
popular the president. So there have been a couple of exceptions,
and if this becomes one of those exceptions and Trump

(21:11):
hangs on to Congress, then you'll see a real revolution
of total mutiny in the Democratic Party. This will be
too many elections they've lost. Somebody will rise up and
try to rescue the party from the radicals. That's what
That's how Bill Clinton came about. They had gone way
too far to the left. He rose up and was
powerful enough as a speaker or a leader, and he

(21:32):
led them back to the center. So somebody will have
to do that.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
Here.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook Meta Instagram has just ordered everybody back
to work every day, back to work five days a week.
You know, they got used to working at home. Obviously,
we all like that working from home, but especially these
young little tech idiots, they really don't like to leave
their house. Kerberg has ordered everybody back to work. It's

(22:02):
driving them nuts. Suddenly he's Paully and Goodfellows. I'm not
saying you gotta go back this minute, but you gotta
go back. You're gonna have to go back. Let's go
to Rupert in New York City. Rupert, how you doing, Hey?

Speaker 3 (22:15):
How you doing? You know?

Speaker 6 (22:17):
I just don't understand how how New York City has
to end this sanctuary.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
They have to end that, it has to put an
end to that. Well, it's ridiculous, you're right, but good
luck with that.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
You got a democratic legislature, democratic city council. Sanctuary law
is ridiculous. It's what protects all the illegal criminals that
are here. Now, how did we end up with this
terrible sanctuary state law? How did we get this? Andrew
Cuomo Another horrible thing he did in New York besides
is no bail, no jail, is closing the prisons. He's

(22:50):
the guy that signed this sanctuary state law that has
completely screwed up New York. Hey, when we come back
Roger Friedman will be with us. Well, I saw him
last night. I'll tell you where in a moment on
seven to ten. Wr Hey, Roger Friedman, the great entertainment reporter.
His website if you should check it every day, there's
always good stories. Showbiz for one one dot com. Showbiz

(23:14):
for one one dot com. Roger Friedman, how you doing.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
I'm great. It was fun seeing you last night, Mark.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
Well, last night was you know? There was Elanes the
great celebrity restaurant for fifty years. Last night was the
reunion of Elaines. The customers, the crowd, but it was.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
The fifteenth anniversary of Elaine's passing, which she would be
ninety five, I think, or ninety six. But it's amazing
the fifteen years have gone by, and the place where
they had this event, called Hudson Malone on its fifthward
fifty third Street, was packed, just packed with people who'd

(23:55):
been to Alan's an amazing situation. She would have been
so through to see all those people in there toasting
her and you know, just having a good time.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Except great crowd, but you know, we had seen these
people twenty years ago, twenty five. It looked a lot older,
a lot of these people crowd.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
We didn't look at it old, but they did.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
But people always ask the same thing. Elaines. You could
go in there any night and was filled with famous faces, celebrities,
movie stars, all these making why is there nothing like
that today?

Speaker 3 (24:32):
You know, there might be somewhere, but people don't since
the pandemic in particular, people don't really go out anymore.
They did and it's packed, but Elaine's was a place
where you weren't really late at night. At the end
of the night, you would at ten or eleven o'clock,
when you were finished at theater or dinner or whatever,

(24:53):
you would say, let's go to Alan's. And that's what
made it special because people came pouring in very late
and stay tilled two in the morning, and it was,
you know, lots of great conversation. I just interviewed Woody Allen.
It's on my site on Showbiz four one one. I
just interviewed Woody Allen for his ninetieth birthday, ninety and
ninety and we had it's a great interview. It's an

(25:15):
hour and a half and on video, and we talked
about Elaines and he said he even at the height
of his fame with any hall and all that. He
was the least famous person in the restaurant, and he
was constantly meeting people. In fact, he met the philosopher
Simone de Bouvoir there, of all people, I mean, that's
how crazy it was where people came from all over

(25:38):
the world to be at Alaians.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah, sometimes you see the biggest Hollywood writers, but they
give you it awe because like the greatest figures in
Saul Bella would be there.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
And yeah, guy, so Robert Altman, a Kurt Vonnegut and
Joseph Heller and all kinds of people like that. I'm
at Urdigen and movie stars came in all the time.
I used to sit late at night with Dapney Coleman
when he was in town and all kinds of great
One night I met greg O Holman in there. That
was amazing. And Phil Spector. On my fortieth birthday, Phil

(26:13):
Spector came in and he had like ten bodyguards, all
with holsters and guns. And Elaine said to me, go
talk to him, and I'm like, I'm right, what are
you talking about? He has ten bodyguards. She goes, just
go on over and say hi. So I did, and
I had a good interview with him.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
Although I remember him one night he punched somebody who
did he punch? He got no fight there one night,
did he really?

Speaker 3 (26:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (26:37):
Not?

Speaker 3 (26:38):
There occasionally there were fights. And last night in front
of the bar, which is a very nice place, this restaurant,
there was some kind of fight on the street on
the side Felk. It was just like a Laane's. It
was like in honor of Elaane.

Speaker 2 (26:54):
So you know what, here's why there's no big celebrity
residence where you're going. There's a million sire nowadays, there's
no celebrities that everybody would know, you know, like if
I read paid six, I don't know who any of
these people are.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
And now well there's somebody you know. First of all,
celebrities aren't value sort of the same way now, like
the movie studios want to have paid influencers come to
the red carpet. They walk the red carpet. You've never
heard of these people before in your life. They're dressed
very strangely, and then they're supposed to be promoting the

(27:28):
movies to their followers. Well, these people are not celebrities,
and it's very peculiar to see them at all. These movies.
There's this happened this week, but two different two or
three different premieres where no one knew who these people were. Yeah,
this is what this is what the studios want now.
They don't care whether you know Candice berg and let's

(27:50):
say I'm just using her as an example, or or
any you know, famous movie star comes to the red carpet.
They want someone who's on TikTok.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Yeah, because you know, bring Kandice Bergen or Clint Eastwood, whoever,
or half the world doesn't know who these people are anymore.

Speaker 3 (28:05):
Yeah, that's very peculiar. I can't imagine that that's the case,
but I'm sure it probably is. And they're only in
you know, during the summer, there was this movie with
Austin Butler and outside on the red carpet, it was
a beautiful night and there were tons of these people
walking around in costumes. Finally we said to them, who

(28:28):
are you? What is all this? And while we were
talking to them on the street, fans were coming up
to the people on the street who had nothing to
do with the movie premiere. We're coming up to them
and saying, oh, I watch you all the time, like
you watch them all the time. What do they do?
You know, they don't really do anything. It's a different world. Yeah,

(28:49):
you know, it's just a different world because of the
phones and the social media and the access.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
Hey, well, every watch Roger Freeman's interview with Woody Allen
on his site showbiz for one one dot com. So
tell us more about what he owned. Is he in
good spirits? Is he looking?

Speaker 3 (29:04):
He's in great spirits. He's in good shape, he told
I got him to tell a story he had told
me a long time ago when he was a stand
up comedian and he didn't want to be a stand
up comedian, but he assigned on he's been a writer,
you know, for your show, show Sid Caesar and all
that stuff. And he got an agent and the agent said,

(29:26):
we don't represent writers, we only represent performers. So you
have to go out and do stand up comedy routine
around the country. And he didn't want to do it,
and they sent him out. And you know, he plays
the clarinet. He plays it now and played it then.
And he used to bring his records with him to
the hotel rooms, but he needed a record player. So

(29:47):
in each city he would be at the city for
a week or two weeks he would buy a new
record player and put it in the room and play
his records and come back from the clubs. He wasn't
like the kind of comedian who stays out all night drinking.
He comes into the room, practices the clarinet, and then
when he's finished in the city, he leaves the record
player there. Yeah. Now, so he left dozens of record

(30:09):
players around the country.

Speaker 2 (30:10):
People are people under thirty are going, what the hell
are they talking about? What's a record player?

Speaker 3 (30:15):
What's there's a record player?

Speaker 6 (30:17):
Well?

Speaker 3 (30:18):
You know, he also writes on an underwood manual typewriter.
You kidd, No, He's written every single thing he's ever
written on the same typewriter. He's never seen a computer.
I've seen I have this, and I've taken a nice
picture of him in his office with the with the
with the typewriter. He goes to I said, how do

(30:39):
you get the ribbons? He says, well, I go down.
I go down the Union Square. There's some little store
still there that's selling the ribbons to this typewriter from
seventy four years ago when he got it. Wow, isn't
that amazing? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (30:53):
New York go watch this interview. It's on showbizo dot com.
Hey did you know Olivia Newsey? Did you ever work
with her?

Speaker 8 (31:01):
No?

Speaker 3 (31:02):
I never knew her. You know, her book is out.
It's a Littal failure. It's like number ten thousand or
something on Amazon. Nobody wants to buy it. It's the
kind of thing that's like a media story. It's just
for media gossip. Regular people who are listening to this
don't care about it. But Olivia Newsy apparently was writing
a profile of Robert Kennedy Junior last year for New

(31:25):
York Magazine, and she was having an affair with him,
and she was blocking negative stories in the rest of
the press about him. She's completely crazy. She had a
live in fiance and he's a journalist too, and he
was taking notes the whole time that this was going on.
She thought he wasn't paying attention, just having this affair

(31:46):
with Kennedy who said he wanted to impregnate her in
emails and stuff like that, and the fiance who had
his own problems at New York Magazine a couple of
years ago. He kept track of all this. So he's
been putting this up now on substack and charging people
to read it. Of course, no one's read no one's
paying for it. Well, what about the journals?

Speaker 2 (32:07):
They're all Kennedy haters, Why don't they? But how come
they're not buying this book?

Speaker 3 (32:12):
Now, they're not buying the book. They have no interest
in her because this is legiti because MSNBC, you know,
they don't like Trump obviously, but they're actual journalists and
this woman has done something that's a violation of every
journalistic ethic. So and I think people on all sides
feel that way. So she's she's kind of cooked, and

(32:33):
she's really doubled down on it. And Vanity Fair hired
her to be their West Coast editor, and now of
course they want out of the contract. They didn't realize
how crazy she was.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
She's like a man out of country now.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
So, yes, she's a reporter without a magazine. So it's
a disaster. Meantime, Kennedy's wife, Cheryl Hines, published her own book.
Knowing this one was coming out, she published her own
book to get ahead of it, and that books sold
two copies. Oh okay, maybe three.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
Yeah, we're out of time, but everybody check out this
good story's new stuff. Every Day Showbiz four one one

Wr Let's get back to.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
The Mark Simone Show on woor.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
Oh, Let's bell Where was I? Jimmy Fayla will be
with us a little later this hour. Let's to talk
to him about We'll get to Trump, de arrangement, syndrome
and more. Net Yahoo says he will come to New
York City. Benjamin Netanyaho, who Mom Donnie has threatened to arrest,
says he will absolutely come to New York City. Uh

(34:42):
will he meet with mom Donnie? He said, only if
Mom Donnie acknowledges Israel's right to exist. Well, all right,
that's a good that's a good point. If Ma'm Donnie
will acknowledge Israel's right to exist, he will meet with
him now when he come come to New York Here,
Mom Donnie has said he will arrest him. But we're

(35:04):
starting to notice that Mom Donnie says a lot of things.
But it's just a charming campaign rhetoric to his wacko crowd.
But he doesn't really follow up on him. He met
with Trump. That was quite a friendly meeting. In fact,
Mam Donnie revealed this week that he continues to talk
to Trump. They've continued the relationship. They talk on the phone.

(35:25):
He's called Trump a few times. Mom Donnie has been
called by Trump. Also after the National Guard shooting. Mom
Donnie said he called Trump to express his sympathy. So
they've they've become friends. So that's a good sign. Maybe
Trump can help keep this guy in line. And maybe
a lot of that crazy wacko campaign stuff was just

(35:47):
a lot of Democrats. They run like that. They just
tell this ground whatever the hell they want to hear,
and then they don't do it. But we'll see. If
Netanyahu does come to New York, there's no he has
nothing to fear about being arrested, no matter what Mom
did on he does. Trump has said he will protect
him with federal troops, law enforcement, FBI, federal agents, whatever
he has to do. They will be with netna WHO

(36:09):
the whole time to make sure he is not arrested.
My great attorney, Alan Derschwitz has said he will be
with netna Who every second of his visit. In case
he needs a lawyer, he'll be right there to take
care of him. Hey, if you take the subway, there's
no more Metro cards. December thirty first, that's the last
day of Metro cards, those yellow cards. I think I

(36:33):
still have one or two somewhere with some money on him.
I better go use him. But the Metro cards disappear
final days December thirty. First, you have to use the
Omni card, which is strictly digital. I did go on
the subway the other day and he just held me.
If you just hold your phone up to the turnstile,
it works. I'm looking at my wallet, my digital wallet.

(36:55):
But what does it mean that I download the Omni
card at some point I must have I don't remember too.
I don't you know what. I don't think you have to.
I think if you have Apple Pay, it also takes
Apple Pay, because I know I don't remember ever downloading
an Omni card. You just if you have Apple Pay
in your cell phone, just hold it up to the turnstile.
It'll let you right in. It will charge you, but

(37:15):
it will let you right in. So there's no more
Metro card. This is going to confuse a lot of
people that are older, people that aren't tech savvy. Now,
it should also save the MTA a lot of money.
Those cards, I imagine costs a lot of money print
up those cards, and you have to have the big
machines that dispense them. There's usually two or three in
every subway station, so you get rid of all of that,

(37:37):
and that's a big savings, a lot of cost savings.
Waiting to see if that gets passed down to the
subway consumer, I wouldn't count on it. So there's gonna
be if you're down there in the subway, there's gonna
be some old people who don't know how to hell
to get on the subway. They don't know what an
omni card is. They got a flip phone, they can't

(37:59):
download anything. So you just try to help them. If
you're down there, there's some people that just just don't
keep up with the text.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
You know.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
I was talking to a friend of mine in Florida,
one of these guys that moved to Miami, and he
calls me. He said, you know, I talked to a
lot of people down here. They listen to your show
every morning here in Miami, a lot of people. And
then he says, I can't get it on the radio.
I said, no, you're like three thousand miles or you
have to listen online or on the phone. And he said,

(38:31):
a how do you do that? And I'm trying to
explain it to him, and I'm trying to explain to
him the I just download the iHeart app on your phone.
You can listen to you can listen to every station
in the country. You can listen to everything on the
iHeart app. Well, he doesn't know how to do that.
And he said, by the way, this is a major
CEO of a big company. You'd know. But some people

(38:51):
just can't figure this stuff out. I actually know one woman,
very successful woman, who said to me, I didn't know
this was I don't have a cell phone. I never
had a cell phone. No you don't have a cell phone. No,
well how do you? She said, I don't need one.

(39:12):
But I was trying to explain to her she has
a landline. It's not long before they take away your landline.
You know, Verizon has already pretty much done that. If
you had an old fashioned Verizon landline, they're gone. Once
they die, that's it. They won't fix them, and every
phone company's going to there's gonna be no landlines in
a couple of years. So if you're one of the
few people without a cell phone, you better get one

(39:33):
and start learning how to use it. Do you ever
read Drudge anymore? That used to be the biggest website
in the world for news. Now, I go to Drudge
and I love the guy who's a friend of mine
for years. I haven't talked to him in a while,
but I go to Drudge Now. This site is completely nuts,

(39:54):
it's completely insane. It's to the left of MSNBC. It's
absolutely crazy. You see these headlines, They're the most awful
anti Trump headlines in the world. Yeah, I don't want
to read some of these. They're so outlandish, and he's
posting things from the worst, lowest people on earth. They're

(40:16):
not even close to being legitimate. I mean, Michael Wolfe,
Mary Trump, those kind of lunatics. Hey, you know who
I really like. Lucy Arnez. Lucy Arnez is the daughter
of Lucille Ball. Lucy Arnez a very nice woman, a
very talented Broadway star, TV star, and I love reading
her Facebook page because she talks about politics. And it's

(40:39):
not just her. There's a lot of people out there
in Hollywood, great people. You'd love spending time with them.
They're fun, but when they start posting about politics, they
are completely deranged. They are totally insane. So she's a
very nice woman. Lives in Palm Springs, puts up pictures
of fun things, but then every you know, fifth post

(41:00):
is political. Here's one from yesterday. This is a long
essay she puts up there. Trump is an instrument of
this country's dark side. He thinks he can do better
than democracy. This group of individuals is resculpting America to
suit their vision, their greed, their need for control. They

(41:22):
think they know how to run us better than laws
and courts. They distrust higher learning. Trump's the Ivy League graduate.
He sent all his kids to Ivy League schools. They
distrust higher learning. They don't want equality. It's a group
effort to dumb down and christianize the country to their

(41:44):
backwards beliefs. Corporations will be in charge. A handful of
multimillionaires will run this great country as if it were
a corporation. They truly believe this will work better. This
is happening right now as we eat our leftover. But
if you look at her Facebook, she's living in a
mansion in Palm Springs. Mix in the Heritage Foundation and

(42:08):
the Federalist Society, you'll get a clearer picture of what's
going on right under our noses. Trump is a pawn.
They need an idiot to puppet, the bigger the fool,
the bigger the ego. This is more serious than just putin.
We cannot solve this or fight it until we truly
understand it. Now, again, she's a very nice woman. Talk

(42:29):
to her about anything. She sounds very smart. Talked to
her about politics, and not just her, it's all these
people talked to her about politics. She sounds like a
deranged lunatic. Now, this is what they call Trump derangement syndrome.
It's an actual thing. It's well here, Now, Wikipedia is
very slanted left wing. Wikipedia says Trump derangement syndrome. It's

(42:51):
a pejorative used to describe negative reactions to Trump. It's
used to dismiss criticism of Trump. Well, no, not really.
It's an actual thing. Just this Lucy Arnetz thing I
just read you. This is Trump derangement syndrome. This is
not normal. It's if you don't like Trump, that's fine.

(43:13):
If a guy said to me, you know, I don't
like him. I don't like the way he talks. He's
too crude for me. Why does he have to insult people? Okay,
I can get that, but he's not tearing down democracy.
The threat to the world. That's Trump derangement syndrome. So
there's a great psychologist, Jonathan Alpert, who wrote a piece
for the Wall Street Journal. They got a big psychiatrist,

(43:35):
a top psychiatrists, could you write about this Trump derangement syndrome.
So he wrote a column explaining it that it's an
obsessive political preoccupation. It resembles an obsessive compulsive pattern in
which one political figure becomes the center of intrusive thoughts.

(43:56):
It creates heightened arousal compulsive monarchy that takes over a
person's mental band with We goes on to explain it
in psychological terms, how it's a real thing, this Trump
derangement syndrome. So this guy writes the column and then
a lot of TV shows have him on to talk
about it, and he's on TV a lot. Well, now

(44:17):
he's getting death threats left and right. He's getting death
threats all over the place. So now he writes another
column saying, they just proved it's true that there is
a Trump derangement syndrome. You know, if you don't like
my column and you're going to write me a nasty letter, fine,
but he's getting death threats. So he said in trying
to disprove the phenomenon, these people have demonstrated it dramatically.

(44:40):
The way they're all behaving is absolute scientific proof that
there is such a thing as Trump derangement syndrome. As
they're all trying to have the guy killed or assassinated.
So it's a real thing, this Trump de arrangement syndrome.
And you got to remember when you with your friend
who's left wing, cook Trumpeter, don't get mad, don't talk

(45:03):
to him about it, just change the subject. It's a symptom.
It's an actual mental illness they have. Just don't even
engage with them. I'll tell you how bad it is.
You know, they're yelling and screaming about the ballroom, Trump
rebuilding parts of the White House. Well, across the street
from the White House is the Eisenhower Executive Office Building,

(45:24):
And if you've seen it lately, it's kind of bad looking.
The White House is white and all the buildings are white,
but this building is dark gray, And it turns out
it's the same kind of white limestone or whatever it
is that the White House is. It just got really
dark and dirty over the years. So Trump is the
expert on this stuff. And he looks across the street

(45:47):
and he says, you got to powerwash that. You know,
you've seen this happen every now and then, the powerwasher
building and then the outside the stone comes back to
the gleaming white or whatever it was light gray when
it was first built, instead of the dark, dirty looking gray.
So he told them to powerwash the building. It's a
nice thing to do. Every building should do it. The

(46:08):
building's one hundred and thirty seven years old. It's government.
You know, they don't take care of things properly. So
Trump said, you know, you got to powerwash that building.
They're about to start the crazy left wing coops, the
leftists Trump de rangement syndrome started yelling and screaming, how
dairy powerwash the eyes and our office building. They went

(46:28):
to court, the swamp went to court. They found a
DC left wing judge who had to put up block
a restraining order. They're not allowed to powerwash the building.
Trump team was forced to agree not to take any
steps to beautify the building for the rest of the
year while the court proceedings continue. It's just dirt and grime.

(46:50):
You got to wash it off the building. But the
left wing went to court block this, I mean, this
is absolutely insane. This, this is Trump arrangement syndrome. They'll
fight this legally in court till they can get permission
to clean the side of the building so it's not
so gray and dirty and ugly anymore. Unbelievable. I mean,

(47:12):
they're just nuts, these people. Anybody remember the comedian Jackie Vernon.
This is way before our time. I mean, this is
like you remember him. He was kind of big, heavy
guy and he talked, liked us, and he talked in monotone,
and he was he was in a lot of so
he's on the Tonight show Ed Sullivan, the Dean Martin Show,
the famous comedian back then. It's a quiet that was

(47:34):
his whole routine, that he was a quiet, nerdy monotones.
Apparently as a son who's just revealed all a lot
of people know him. He's the voice of a Frosty
the Snowman, of course, from the nineteen sixty nine classic
Frosty the Snowman. Everybody knows the voice. So his son,
David Vernon revealed this dull guy that was his whole act.

(47:57):
By the way, about how dull he was. He come
out and do jokes about a dolly was. Turns out
the guy was a hell of a womanizer. The guy
had three separate families. The main family finds out about
these other kids they didn't know about. The guy was
like a multi not a big a mister. What do
you call this, a trigger mister or whatever. He had
a multiple wives, multiple families, all sorts of children nobody
knew about. So so hey, you can never judge a

(48:20):
book by its cover. Hey, Jack Smith, the disgusting weirdo
Bizarro prosecuted the bug eyed guy with the cape. He
has been subpoenaed house. The Republicans want to grill him.
He's the one that did the disgusting, awful, you know
raid on mar A Lago with their guns drawn. They
got to shoot to kill order if they needed it. Seriously.

(48:42):
Biden gave him the okay to use deadly force. Ter
it a war crime. Biden gave him the okay to
use deadly force in mar A Lago where all the
old ladies are having dinner. And they didn't just go
and looking for documents. It was the most disgusting raid.
They went through Baron's, they went through Malania's closets. They
looked in her underwear drawer like poly walnuts going through

(49:06):
Adrian's underwear and it was absolutely disgusting. But he's going
to be asked about all of this. Jack Smith will
have to testify he's been subpoenaed. Jack Smith says, I
look forward to meeting with the committees to discuss my
work and clarify the various misconceptions. I think this is
going to very badly for him. It's not gonna go
well for him. Hey, we'll take a break and then

(49:27):
we'll take some calls. Next eight hundred three to two
one zero seven ten is the number. Give me a call.
Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
Mark?

Speaker 11 (50:07):
Hi?

Speaker 3 (50:07):
Long time to speak, Buddy. I wanted to comment.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
On the guitar player.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
Musician Steve Yeah. Right right, buddy.

Speaker 6 (50:20):
Lucy Ornez was screaming about you know power.

Speaker 3 (50:24):
You know she doesn't does she realize.

Speaker 9 (50:26):
That from fifty five to sixty five, Desilu Studios ruled Hollywood.

Speaker 6 (50:31):
You couldn't get a show on the air.

Speaker 2 (50:32):
Yes, yes, there were ninety five per shows on the
shows on the air were not from Desi Lou, but
they were very good.

Speaker 3 (50:39):
They had a lot of them.

Speaker 2 (50:40):
They had like ten hit shows at once. That was
very good. Yeah, but you know, and they didn't role Hollywood.
That's perfectly normal. There was a time where Norman Norman
Lear once had ten hit shows on it once. Chuck
Laurie once had five hit shows at once, perfect Carsey
Werner on ten hit perfectly normal.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
All right, all right, I just every time I watch
me TV, at the end of the show, I see
Desilu production. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (51:06):
They also had a good studio. So a lot of
people had nothing to do with Desilu, but they would
rent a Desilu studio and do it there because they
had they had better prices, believe it or not than
the big studios did. But okay, okay, well you might
have set me straight then if you go back to
the height of Desilu. Let's say they had twelve shows
on the air. There were actually one hundred and twenty
shows on the air. They had twelve of them, so
that's a that's only ten percent.

Speaker 3 (51:27):
Okay, okay, Well I'm a musician, not a TV guy,
so but thank you, any Koury. I appreciate that. Always
listening to you Mark all the time.

Speaker 2 (51:35):
All right, thanks, Let's go to uh Chris in Manhattan. Chris,
how you doing, come mak I'm good.

Speaker 3 (51:40):
Thanks.

Speaker 11 (51:41):
I hope you're doing well too. But I just want
to say, I think you're the best show on on
War but Coming. I'm not buttering. I'm not buttering you
up at all. But that's not what I called for.
There's no butt Listen. I want to talk about the
bombings of the boats. Okay, what if the persons feed
in the United States gives wrong information on purpose, and

(52:05):
all of a sudden they blow up a boat that
has people on it that have absolutely nothing to do
with anything.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Well, luckily that's not.

Speaker 3 (52:11):
Luckily, Luckily that's raging that.

Speaker 2 (52:13):
Luckily that's not been the case apparently.

Speaker 11 (52:15):
Not yet, I know, but it's very dangerous.

Speaker 2 (52:16):
I mean that's true of everything everywhere every police department,
every inter law enforcement would have the same situation. But
apparently they try to keep this quiet. They have captured
and got some major, major, major cartel leaders who are
facing incredible jail time, who are giving them names and
people and all that. And they're following these people. They

(52:37):
don't just wait till they see a boat and blow
it up. They follow them from the lab, from the
cartel headquarters out to the port.

Speaker 3 (52:42):
Well, that's what I figure.

Speaker 11 (52:43):
They're being set information. What if somebody purposely feeds them
false information?

Speaker 2 (52:47):
I mean that could Well, these are professionals, they would
know better. And the problem you're bringing up would be
for every police department, every investigation, everything everywhere. So it
wouldn't apply just to this, it would apply to all
law enforce everywhere, at all times. But they know how
to use informants. They know how to test the credibility
of people cooperating. Oh, we only got like a minute.

(53:08):
Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn Vincent, we only got
like forty seconds.

Speaker 8 (53:11):
All right, and the people go forbid. If they're wearingnocent people,
the government usually pays out, just like they did with
Ashley Babbitt's case and Ileana Ohmar is a piece of garbage.
And if you want to see where that Pilford Somalian
money was going that they robbed from US in Minnesota,
go on YouTube and watch the United States Navy go

(53:35):
to war with the Somalian swift gunboats. There's one in
particular the Defense Department. About a month after the operations,
they post them on YouTube, and one in particular it
shows the United States Navy swinging it out with about
thirty Somalian gunboats because they're trying to hijack a US

(53:59):
Navy fuel ship. That just it's floating.

Speaker 2 (54:03):
That's pretty good. That that sounds pretty good on YouTube.

Speaker 3 (54:05):
I gonna watch it.

Speaker 2 (54:07):
I gotta watch that tonight, Vincent. We gotta go. We
gotta do the news. Thanks for calling. When we come back.
Jimmy Fayla, the Great Jimmy Fayler next on seven to
ten WR.

Speaker 1 (54:16):
Seven ten wrs. Mark Simone Show continues.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
Now, well, it's a great news show on WR every
night nine o'clock, every weeknight, nine to midnight. It's Jimmy Fayla, who,
of course you know from Fox News and one of
the great comedians and talk show hosts. Jimmy Fayla every
night at nine, seven ten WR. He also does the
Best late night Show Saturday nights on the Fox News

(54:41):
Channel ten o'clock Best Monologue in TV Saturday nights at ten.
Jimmy Fayla, How you doing.

Speaker 6 (54:49):
I'm laughing.

Speaker 4 (54:49):
I was just watching this video, Mom, Donnie with the
Starbucks protest.

Speaker 3 (54:54):
Did you see this?

Speaker 6 (54:56):
But I'm like Starbucks.

Speaker 4 (54:58):
Workers have such a hard time spelling everybody's name on
the cup as it is. Now, you got to bring
in a Zoran, Mom, Donnie.

Speaker 6 (55:05):
On the side of that cup. He probably got we
got a coffee for Zoolander.

Speaker 3 (55:10):
He has any idea.

Speaker 2 (55:11):
Hey, if you're a socialist, why should you help a
place that charges eighteen dollars for a cup of coffee?

Speaker 6 (55:17):
Amen?

Speaker 4 (55:18):
Well, that's the best part of that protest too, is
he's there talking about the working man. He probably demanded
an appearance.

Speaker 2 (55:23):
Fee, but he should be. I mean, that's the most
disgusting you talking about affordability. The greatest violator is Starbucks.

Speaker 4 (55:33):
But of course, but remember this, he's not worried about affordability.
The city council just voted to give himself a sixteen
percent raise, so it's more a voice already more affordable.
He hasn't even gotten sworn in yet, he's already made
life more affordable.

Speaker 2 (55:50):
Hey, these the drug boats. Don't you feel sorry for
the poor drug boats? They're getting bombed like crazy. Why
that's just terrible, isn't it that?

Speaker 6 (56:00):
It's my favorite thing in the world.

Speaker 4 (56:01):
The Democrats are yelling at you that you gotta feel
bad for this, and I gotta tell you, man, someday
they're going to have an intervention. Like, you know, if
you drink too much, your family's like, hey, you know,
we knew you were out of control when you did
this at the wedding.

Speaker 6 (56:13):
Okay, someday there's going to be an.

Speaker 3 (56:15):
Intervention for the Democrats.

Speaker 4 (56:16):
I think it'll be like they're going to play the
video we knew you were out of control when you
went on TV and said leave these.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
Poor Narco terrorists below.

Speaker 6 (56:23):
Did you see the one lunatic on MSNBC's like they're just.

Speaker 3 (56:26):
Trying to make a living.

Speaker 4 (56:29):
What it's bananas, and like there will have to be
an intervention at some point because this is not a
sustainable this is not a real political party.

Speaker 3 (56:39):
At this point.

Speaker 2 (56:40):
Yeah, you know, this Trump derangement syndrome it's so real.
The psychologist Jonathan Alpert wrote about it, how real it is.
Then he gets death threats all over the place. Now
he writes another cop so you just proved my point.
You just proved that's an actual derangement syndrome. Will it
ever end?

Speaker 3 (56:57):
No?

Speaker 4 (56:58):
And that's my favorite thing about right now, you know,
is that we're living in this like it's like a
hamster wheel of stupid.

Speaker 6 (57:04):
Because what the reason I specifically a.

Speaker 3 (57:06):
Hamster wheel is we come back around.

Speaker 4 (57:09):
Like you know, like two weeks ago, it was like
release the Epstein files and then he released them and
they're like, ah, heck that was But then this boat
thing happened and they're like, oh, they shouldn't have shot
that guy. But now that went away. ABC said they
were in the right. So now the hamster wheel is
gonna probably come back around to either the Epstein's or
I don't know, some with Russia.

Speaker 6 (57:28):
Rachel Matta was talking about Russia last night. I'm not kidding.

Speaker 3 (57:30):
She was on Colbert.

Speaker 6 (57:32):
She's like, yeah, Russia's run and I'm like, these people
aren't even trying anymore. You know, we always get mad
at Hollywood.

Speaker 4 (57:39):
Because we're like, they never make original movies. It's just
another X Men. Okay, Well, the Democrats are basically doing
the same thing, except they are literally the party of
X Men.

Speaker 2 (57:50):
Now on Saturday nights, you do the best late night show.
It's the funniest monologue and it's fun, it's funny, you laugh,
it's a great thing. At what the hell?

Speaker 3 (58:01):
What?

Speaker 2 (58:02):
Right before we got to bed? Who was to watch
Rachel Maddow and Stephen Colbert try to rally you up?
How is that late night entertainment?

Speaker 4 (58:10):
And it's confusing because you can't tell who's who.

Speaker 12 (58:15):
Which was the MSFPC and which was the CBS. I'm
confused here, and that's all the same dumb stuff. And
like you said, you make a good point. This is
what you're wanting before you go to bed.

Speaker 2 (58:31):
Who wants to go to bed with?

Speaker 3 (58:33):
The Russians took over the government?

Speaker 6 (58:35):
The sleep tight kids, you know, and that is I
mean it. It's where he's failing the country.

Speaker 4 (58:42):
I said this after the election when Jimmy Kimmel cried
after Trump won the election. As a comedian, that was
the most offensive thing I've ever seen. Because we have
one job, which is to make you laugh. He did
the opposite of our job instead of bringing joy. He
literally cried. And I said this at the time. I'm like,
I'm imagine you went to splash dancers and every time

(59:03):
a new song came on, the girl put on another
layer of cloth. Okay, you're doing the opposite of the job.
Jimmy Kimmel's comedian Dough is a reverse stripper, and Colbert
is right there with him.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
Yeah, Colbert, Rachel Matter, You're right. What is it about
these androgynous looking people with glasses that the left gloves.
It's a real.

Speaker 3 (59:22):
Phenomenon, That is the thing.

Speaker 4 (59:25):
It's those It's those glasses. You now, Trump has a
maga hat. The Democrats have those black glasses.

Speaker 3 (59:31):
It's the thing.

Speaker 4 (59:32):
And if you can't afford the black glasses, you wear
a mask when you're driving your car alone.

Speaker 6 (59:38):
I'm out in Theressol County.

Speaker 4 (59:40):
I'm withing up the Sagda Coast Parkway, so I'm probably
in Suffolk by the time I get there, but I
took the Southern state out. The other day, woman next
to me comes flying up north on the sag She's
got a mask on in her Subaru, and my wife goes,
I wonder who she voted for? And I laughed so
hard I almost drove off the road.

Speaker 2 (59:57):
You don't see a lot of that Long Island though
they tend to be more s in Long Island.

Speaker 6 (01:00:01):
Our people are people.

Speaker 4 (01:00:03):
But she was probably she was a Sunday, so she
probably came out from the Upper West Side and when
probably heading out to a Hanson.

Speaker 2 (01:00:09):
Yeah, why how come the upper west side of Priest
they're all little old ladies? Why are these little old
ladies so trump deranged? What is it about being a
little old lady?

Speaker 4 (01:00:19):
I know that's like a it's a it's a thing man,
And I don't it doesn't make sense to me because
he's like pro police, anti migrant crime. And if you're
a little old lady, you know that's probably a good
policy for you. You know, I don't think anybody wants to
do it yourself police force. But you know you read
those reports about Mom Donnie and that unit that's already

(01:00:40):
been established where they show up with the social worker again.
You know this when the when the game is on
the line, you're calling the boys in blue, not the weirdos.

Speaker 3 (01:00:51):
With the blue hair.

Speaker 6 (01:00:52):
You know you want cops.

Speaker 4 (01:00:54):
So if I'm one of those little old ladies, I'd
have my maga hat on.

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:00:58):
He speaking of democrats defending Are they not defending these
Somali crooks that rob two billion? Will they defend this too?

Speaker 3 (01:01:07):
That's my favorite thing in the world. And they're like, we're.

Speaker 4 (01:01:10):
Not gonna sit here and have you. I think the
term is otherise. We're other rising some people.

Speaker 6 (01:01:17):
I mean, no, no, the money's gone. This is not about
the color of their skin.

Speaker 4 (01:01:20):
It's about the color of the money, okay, because they
ripped off other people who have that color skin just
the same, who might otherwise have been the recipients of
that money. And what's crazy about it is the story
they tell.

Speaker 6 (01:01:32):
They're like, these people migrated here fleeing a civil war.
Forty percent of the money is actually in Somalia. It's
not even here. So they didn't even bother to take
the flight or sail over on a boat and get
some Fugeesi passport. These guys are literally just getting the
money in the mail like they ordered.

Speaker 4 (01:01:50):
Instead of ten CDs for a penny, you get ten
thousand dollars for a democrat.

Speaker 2 (01:01:56):
I hate you should listen to Jimmy Fala. He does
a great show here. I'm w or every night nine
to midnight, excellent show. What do you have tonight on
the show?

Speaker 3 (01:02:05):
Oh, it's a hot one.

Speaker 4 (01:02:06):
Lara Trump is on presidential daughter in law and Byron
Donald's man who says he's going to be the next
governor of Florida. He's got to get through me first
in this interview, so we'll see how it goes.

Speaker 8 (01:02:16):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:02:16):
Yeah, Ron DeSantis not the most exciting guy in the world,
but he was a great governor. And Byron Donalds governor.
I think Brian Donalds would be great, right he continue
everything to Santus.

Speaker 4 (01:02:26):
Did you know we had better be because he's on
my show like once a week and I'm gonna look
terrible If he's okay, you've got to step it up.

Speaker 2 (01:02:35):
And the next person to get elected from the Trump
family baron Lara, who do you think?

Speaker 7 (01:02:41):
Who?

Speaker 4 (01:02:43):
Well, you know what's funny, like, Lara didn't run in
North Carolina because I guess she doesn't really live there,
and you know, getting you know, thought about the Florida thing,
but she's back and forth. I would think it was
her because she was an R and C chairperson and
she you know, they all have chops, the kids all
have chops.

Speaker 3 (01:02:59):
In their own way.

Speaker 4 (01:03:00):
Eric runs the businesses Don Junior's Eric runs the businesses
Don Junior runs his mouth. I'm not saying that in
the disparaging way.

Speaker 2 (01:03:07):
He's a lot like his dad. He's very pugnacious, he's
very out there.

Speaker 4 (01:03:10):
I don't know Baron's deal, but here is one keynote.

Speaker 6 (01:03:13):
Okay, in the presidential election, the.

Speaker 4 (01:03:16):
Taller candidate has won about ninety percent of the elections
in our nation. Darren Trump is six foot nine, so
if he can get himself a nomination, he's probably gonna win.

Speaker 2 (01:03:26):
Yeah, you're gonna have to get some basketball player to
run against him. That's your only hope if you're a Democrat.

Speaker 4 (01:03:31):
So the Democrats are going to elect a women's basketball player.
But it looks like Lebron James for some reason.

Speaker 2 (01:03:38):
Lebronda promo Laura Trump, you gave her a show on
Fox and it's doing well. I think she's start to
realize it's a lot more fun doing TV than running
for her office and getting killed.

Speaker 4 (01:03:48):
It's sure she'd rather be the lead in for Jimmy
Fayala than Mitch McConnell.

Speaker 3 (01:03:53):
Good point.

Speaker 2 (01:03:54):
Actually that's a great lineup. Saturday Night is Lara Trump,
but at ten o'clock Jimmy Faylo, that's the best late
night showing TV. Make sure you watch that Fox News
channel and make sure you're listening tonight every weeknight. He's
on w o R with a great show nine to
midnight tonight and every weeknight. Jimmy Fayla, thanks for being
with us.

Speaker 3 (01:04:13):
Got the best, buddy.

Speaker 2 (01:04:13):
Take care, take care. Hey, no forget, Yeah, it's great

It's gonna be uh. The lights are on five am
to midnight every night. You got the Bryant Park tree.
That's a beautiful Christmas tree too. You got Rockfles Center,
Sixth Avenue. All along sixth Avenue, there's all those different
Christmas things that are they're all up now. The big,

(01:04:54):
big big ornaments, the big candy canes. The sidewalks will
be mobbed all the time as you try to walk
sixth Avenue from like fifty second Street to forty second
absolute gridlock. In the streets, in the sidewalks, everywhere. But
it's a sign that New York is doing as well
as ever despite the Mom Donnie election. People are still

(01:05:15):
coming here. I'm told you cannot get a hotel room
in New York City right now for the whole month
of December. More tourism than ever. Hey, we're out of time.
