Speaker 1 (00:01):
Nowor Presents the Mark Simone Show.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Hey, it's Friday. We got a lot to get to.
We'll go over the Mayor Old debate in just a second.
We'll get to President Trump meeting with Zelenski today in
the White House. Then also at the end of the day,
end of the afternoon, heading tomorrow Lago for the first time,
we'll get to John Bolton. By the way, this is
not lawfair. They keeps a lawfair going on. Lawfair is
(00:27):
when you get indicted in four cities at the same time. Bolton,
as Joe Paeshi would say in Casino, this guy was
begging to be made an example of. So we'll get
to him. Coming up, we'll get to Letitia James, even
more dirt coming out about her family. A lot of
stuff to get to. Last night's debate, Curtis won the debate.
(00:52):
Now here's the only problem. I don't know if anybody noticed.
That's the problem. Curtis was great, but there was no
clear moment knockout punch, incredible moment, nothing super viral. And
the other the real problem. This is a Channel four
WNBC TV and they did this last time. Very biased
when it comes to running debates. They should never be
(01:14):
allowed to do a debate. So the moderators were very
careful to keep any attention away from Curtis. They tried
to give Curtis as little time as possible. At one
point in the debate, he actually said to them, you
guys are trying to marginalize me. You're trying to keep
me out of this. Here's basically what happened, Mam donnie.
Who's a great debater, he was phenomenal in the primary debates.
(01:37):
He just wiped out Cuomo in this debate. He was good,
not as great as he was in the earlier debates
because he was being too careful. He had all his
slick salesman Mam donnie stuff going on, but he was
hedging and being a little more vague in his answers,
covering himself. So, but the good news for him is
Cuomo was just awful, as awful as he is when
(02:01):
he talks like this, and it was just too slow.
Curtis very You know, Curtis is the only professional debater
in the race. Curtis has done one hundred thousand debates.
He's been doing this professionally for thirty five years, Mom Donnie,
I don't know how it happened. But he's a very
very good debater. Cuomo a bumbling, stumbling, weak debater. And
(02:25):
he doesn't look right anymore. You know. It was a
good looking guy, but he's got that ozembic face now
and he got himself too skinny. I don't know why
he did that. He tries to project this tough guy.
You know, if you want to project a tough guy,
I means you got to have a little bulk to you.
You can't be a toothpick. It doesn't And the problem
is he projects weakness when he talks, and if you
(02:47):
look that skinny, it just enhances that whole weak look.
So he's got to put some It was a little
too late, but he should have kept some weight on
John pedorit's the great political analyst. Here's what he said
about Cuomo last night. And Pedoritz is a guy who
should be a Cuomo fan and a Democrat. But Podoritz
(03:08):
says about Cuomo, for a man who's running multiple elections
over the past twenty five years, Cuomo was shockingly inarticulate
and unable to sustain a single argument or a single answer.
There were moments when Cuomo sounded more like Luca Brazzi
stumbling through his thanks to Don Corleone for the wedding
(03:29):
invitation than he did like his own famously silver tongued father. Yeah,
that's a good point. Mario Cuomo was in his day
the greatest orator in American politics. He's with a phenomenal debater.
He was one of my debate coaches. We used to
when he was governor. He would come on once a
month and we'd come into the studio, we'd have a
(03:49):
one hour debate, and then afterwards he would stay and
he would give me a whole breakdown of everything I
did wrong. I mean, it was so helpful. He would
show me every year, dude, you did this. This the
best debate coach in the world. So if he did
that for me, I would imagine did that for Andrew
times a million. So I don't know what happened. It's
(04:11):
you know, it's the same thing with Hillary Clinton when
she's running at that time. Bill Clinton is the greatest
orator in American politics. She's married to the greatest political
speaker in the world, and she can't talk. She's horrible
in debate, she's horrible in speeches. Whatever it is, it
didn't rub off or I don't know, if you're too
close to the person, maybe you don't take the coaching
the way you should. So the next debate will be
(04:35):
Wednesday night next week Wednesday night. Now the problem with
that it's New York one, which nobody sees, and the
debate moderator, this is a horrible choice, should recuse himself.
It's Errol Lewis, who's the most partisan left wing guy
in the world. That's really inappropriate to have this guy
(04:55):
run a debate. It's absolutely ridiculous. So that's probably going
to go well for anybody with him doing it. But
here's some of last night's debate, and one of the
questions was experience.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
In other words, what these hen Blingman said is he
has no experience.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
What I don't have an experience, I make up for
an integrity, And what you don't have an integrity, you
could never make up for an experience.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
We have the architect and we have the apprentice of
no Cash fail, which was made in disjaction.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah so, and by the way, Cuomo has been doing
a lot of interviews today and I noticed if you
listened to him a week ago doing interviews, it was
all about how bad Mom Dottie is, how great he is. Well,
if you're listening today doing interviews, he was really going
after Curtis. He was trying to hit Curtis hard, which
means he feels Curtis was very, very good. Last night.
(05:41):
He feels Curtis did a lot of damage because he
seems very busy trying to take out Curtis.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Now, this is no job for on the job training.
And if you look at the failed mayors, they're ones
that had no management experience.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Don't do it again.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
I have the experience of having served the New York
State Assembly for five years and watching a broken political system.
And what all of that experience has shown me, which
mister Cuomo can't seem to understand, is that it is
far too expensive, far too hard for New Yorkers to
afford to live in this city.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
He literally has never had a job. On his resume,
it says he in turned for his mother. You got
our hurricane. You were God forbid a nine to eleven
a health pandemic.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
And if we have a health pandemic, then why would
New Yorkers turn back to the governor who sent seniors
to their death and nursing homes.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
See, this is Cuomo's main problem. This is what happened
to him in the second debate in the primary, he
armed himself with all kinds of attacks. Cuomo had such
a horrible record as governor, did so many bad things
as governor. No matter what he tries to hit Mam
Dommie with, Mam Donnie's got these kind of comebacks. Cuomo
created the whole crime wave with his no bail, no jail,
(06:50):
with his defund the police. He actually did defund the
police with his closing all the prisons, letting the prisoners out,
redoing the parole board so they let all the I
was just horrible. And if you listen to them, to
him now trying to he's finally trying to explain away
some of that. He can't do it. He can't do it.
He's the no bail, no jail was the worst thing
(07:12):
anybody ever did to New York. And he's the guy
that pushed that. He didn't just sign it, he pushed
it in speech after speech. It was just horrible. So
he can't explain that away. Even the don't close Rikers Island,
he was the guy pushing to close Rikers island. He's
now arguing, well, I didn't say closed the island. I
meant closed the building. He the double talk just won't work. Israel,
(07:35):
obviously was a big topic.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
The assemblyman still won't say he believes that Israel has
the right to exist as a Jewish state. He is
a divisive personality.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
I've said time and again that I recognize Israel's right
to exist. I've said that I will not recognize anything Jewish,
said that I will not a Jewish state if I
would be allowed to finish that, I would not recognize
any states right to exist with a system of hierarchy
on the basis of race, of religion.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Who's under attack now more than ever before, and I
don't believe either of you have the capability, and he'll
protecting them with incredu semanticism.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Now, Curtis went on to point out all the times
where there were horrible, horrible attacks on Jews and he
was there with the Guardian Angels to protect them. So
if you watch the whole thing, Curtis had a great night.
But again, I don't know if it was enough, and
I don't know if anybody noticed that he won the debate,
But the moderators were trying very hard to keep the
spotlight away from Curtis. This was also the Muslim vote
(08:34):
was in there a lot. Cuomo trying to suddenly go
to mosques and all that, something he never did before.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
I don't think in any way the Assemblyman is representative
of the Muslim community. Many of his positions don't even
follow the Muslim faith.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
You know, it took Andrew Cuomo being beaten by a
Muslim candidate in the Democratic primary for him to set
foot in a mosque. It's been an hour or twenty
minutes of this debate and we haven't heard Governor Cuomo
say the word of that's why he lost the primary.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Yeah, now, I think making that the real problem. If
it's affordability, if that's the issue, that's the real problem.
If there's an affordability crisis in New York, if things
are bad here, well then you got to get rid
of the Democrats because they've been running the whole place
for fifteen years. They've been running everything. They've been the mayor,
the governor, the legislature of the City Council. Everything has
(09:24):
been run by Democrats. So if it's a disaster in
the crisis blame them obviously. If it's that bad after
fifteen years of them, you switch parties, you switch to
something else. Here's more of the debate. Curtis now Curtis's
number one issue police crime.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
With this new police Outrage unit, Well, in danger women
and children in domestic violence situation, they will be killed,
they will be made.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Now they went into that. Social workers will answer domestic
violence calls. As cops will tell you, one of the
most dangerous things you can respond to is a domestic
violent it's called people get killed there. So you don't
want to send social workers in. And as Ray Kelly
and all the great experts have explained, NYPD has tried
that through the years, a million times. They've tried that
(10:11):
program where social workers respond to domestic violence. And they
find a few things. Well, A, it doesn't work. It's
never worked. They've tried it a number of times over
the decades. It doesn't work. And B the social workers
do not want to do this. They want the cops
with them on this. So and Cuomo keeps trying that. No,
(10:32):
he us no experience. You know, experience is a good
thing if you were good at it, if you had
a lot of experience and you were horrible at it.
Cuomo did so many awful things as governor. I don't
know it. May have the experience, but it's not good experience.
He has no experience.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
And this is not a job for someone who has
no management experience to run three hundred thousand people, no
financial experience to run one hundred and fifteen billion dollar budget.
He literally has never had a job.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah, he kept trying that. I don't know if that
works with anybody.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
Jews don't trust that you can be there for them
when they are victims of anti Semitic attacks.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
And what I'm looking to do as the first Muslim
mayor of the city is to ensure that we bring
every New Yorker together, Jewish new Yorkers, Muslim new Yorkers,
every single person that calls the city home.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Yeah. Now, this race is going to be about turnout.
The way you get a Deblasio elected is you have
eighteen percent turnout if nobody shows up, just the you know,
the energized far left shows up and you get a Deblasio.
So if it's the same thing happened in the primary,
if it's just eighteen percent, you know that's Mom Donnie.
And if you can get it presidential year kind of
(11:39):
a turnout, if you can get it to eighty percent,
then it's not necessarily Mom Donnie, So you got to
get it up to eighty percent. Cuomo cannot beat Mam Donnie.
It's impossible. He's been tested against Mom Donnie and the primaries.
He stinks at beating Mam Donnie. I was talking a
lot of the big, big, big donors yesterday. These are
the ones that back Cuomo. And as we always explain
(12:01):
to you, the big donors are always wrong every time
when it comes to politics. And when you try to explain,
we've seen that Cuomo is a disaster against Mam Donni.
Apparently the excuse he's given them and they're all falling
for this. They all keep repeating this. Well, that was
ranked choice, and it was the ranked choice. That Donnie
(12:22):
only beat Cuomo because of the ranked choice. This is
absolutely not true. If there were no ranked choice, he
would have beaten Cuomo in a much quicker Forget the
rank choice. It had nothing to do with the primary.
First first round of the primary, Cuomo got wiped out
by Mom Donnie. Mam Donnie beat him by one hundred
(12:42):
thousand votes. This is out of seven hundred thousand. Ma'm
donnie beat him by one hundred thousand votes. It wasn't
even close. Ranked choice was not a factor. Obviously, taxes
came up. That's a big issue.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
He's going to raise taxes, all of He's going to
raise taxes stayed wide on corporations. But the money's own
going to go to New York City. That could never happen.
It's not just that the governor wouldn't support it. It's impossible.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Yeah. Again, Quoto not an effective debater. He's got that
voice where he goes into that sing song. It doesn't
sound good when you do it in the debate. Sound
like a housewife in Long Island. You do that.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
What I tell the President is if he ever wants
to come for New Yorkers in the way that he
has been, he's going to have to get through me
as the next mayor of the city.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
If you try to get tough with Trump, the only
people who are going to suffer from that are the
people of New York City.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
When I'm fighting for New York, I am not going
to stop. And I'll tell you something else. If the
Assemblyman is elected mayor Donald Trump will take over New
York City and it will be Mayor Trump.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Who runs New York City.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Now here's the
only hope here. Curtis did win. I don't think there
was enough of a knockout punch, or enough of a
moment to go super viral or enough people. I don't know.
I don't You can never tell after a debate. You
got to wait a couple of days for it all
sink in. And remember now it goes all over the place.
(14:08):
It's all over social media, streaming, YouTube, it's everywhere. It
takes a few days for everybody to see it. So
we'll see what the effect is, probably by monday. I
don't know. You can't tell. Now, how do you stop
mom Donnie. If this isn't going to stop him, Well,
there are all those investigations into the money this guy
(14:31):
came out of nowhere, founds him out fifty million and
sorrows type money flowed into him, somethink from around the world,
something from China, all different countries. If they can trace that,
prove that this foreign money in the campaign, they can
remove Mom Donnie. He can be taken away, can even
be indicted. Some think he'll never serve as mayor even
if he wins that they'll get him on that stuff
(14:52):
and take him out of the picture legally, just take
him away legally. And the only other thing is there
are Justice Department officials who have said if he becomes mayor,
if he does anything to the Jewish community, if he
does anything wrong, they the Justice Department officials have said
(15:13):
they will come here and arrest him for a hate crime.
So you got that going on, but we'll see. We'll
take some calls in a minute. Eight hundred three two
one zero seven ten is the numbers you want to say?
What you if you watch the debate, you got an opinion?
Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Give wor oh, Bri said on the iHeart radio app
to hear Mark Simone and all the WOR hosts in
an instance, go back to the Marximo show on WOR.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Maggie in Iowa. Maggie,
how you doing?
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Oh hey, hi, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Well they got phones there in Iowa. Now wow, that's
very good.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
Oh yeah, we do. Yeah, it's not nice. Yeah, Hey,
I just have a question. I just followed this race
from a distance and listen to you in the morning,
and I'm just curious, why isn't anybody asking Mondami about
his record as an assembling man. Didn't he only like
bring one piece of legislation to the floor.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Yeah, it's a good question. This is the Democratic model
now since Obama, you get a slick look and salesman
of a guy with no record. And Obama did the
same thing when he was in Congress. When he was
in the same did absolutely nothing. He barely showed up,
didn't vote, didn't do anything that you deliberately don't have
a record that way, there's no problem.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
Well that's yeah, that's what I'm thinking clear out here
in Iowa. Why doesn't somebody ask those questions? What could
he vote on?
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Well, it's a good point. The problem is you only
got one debate left and it's the most biased partisan
Democrat moderator Errol Lewis, so he's not going to ask that.
But good point, Maggie. But thanks for calling. Thanks a lot.
Let's go to Patrick and Scarsdale. Patrick, how you doing
very well?
Speaker 7 (17:04):
Mark?
Speaker 8 (17:04):
How are you today?
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Good?
Speaker 8 (17:06):
Good? Now, I'm just thinking of Curtis's path to victory.
We know Staten Island is very Republican and it's highly
likely he'll carry that. Aren't areas of the Bronx like
the Riverdale area high Jewish population he could possibly explore
as well.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Yeah, you know, obviously he'll do very very well with
the Jewish population. Problem is the Jewish population. It's not
as big as you think percentage wise, and not enough
to carry an election, but it's an important group and
he'll do that. You got you got a lot of
Republican votes in Queen's Staten Island, believe or not in
the Bronx. So, uh, the problem is and Curtis has
(17:45):
been very good with the TV commercials and you know,
social media ads and all that they have been. He's
been bombarding the airways with great commercials. Cloma's got a
couple of commercials. They're not that effective. Mom Donnie is
mostly a social media very good there. But we'll see.
Second debate is Wednesday night. But that's on New York One,
(18:06):
a little watch channel, and they got the most slanted
bias moderator eron Lewis doing it. Let's go to John
in Westchester, John, how you doing.
Speaker 9 (18:16):
Okay, I just wanted to make a mention of the
great Aura and Governor Clombo when he was running and
abortion came up, he would say, I'm personally against it,
but the people wanted and then yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Now, the only thing is abortion is not an issue here.
It's absolutely not an issue. Abortion is totally legal in
New York, always will be it. Never ever it will
be in jeopardy. It's not an issue in this campaign.
Was not an issue in the presidential campaign either. Let's
go to you know a problem. We're getting all these
great calls. The only problem is, and we love all
of you, but you're not in New York City. You're
not actually voters Scarsdale, Iowa, Long Island. I mean, keep calling,
(19:05):
but you're not the voters who can That's the problem.
If the whole Tri state area could vote mom, Donnie
wouldn't have a chance. If the whole just metropolitan area
and the suburbs could vote Mom, Donnie wouldn't have a chance.
Let's go to Bill in New Jersey. Bill, how you
doing good?
Speaker 10 (19:20):
And thank you? Mark, speaking of both New York and
New Jersey elections, could you please tell your political context
that Jack Chitdarelli needs to hammer hammer away on the
issue of no cash bail, the crime problem in his
I haven't seen too much.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Yeah, but that's not how it works. People to do
it well, I haven't seen it. It doesn't matter. As
long as everybody else sees it, that's what works. Let's
go to Fran in Massapequa. Fran How you doing, my man?
What's up? Baby? Listen? The bottom line is this.
Speaker 8 (19:50):
It's that the race in Manhattan.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I mean New York, I call it Manhattan.
Speaker 8 (19:55):
It starts with the right candidates.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Look at the candidates the Republican to put and the
perfect example that he got Curtis, good guy, what candidate?
What candidate would you put in? No, I don't know,
I don't know. There you go, I asked our Republican
party chairman. I said, if it wasn't Curtis, who are
you going to go with?
Speaker 8 (20:15):
Then?
Speaker 6 (20:16):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (20:16):
He didn't say exactly, but he kind of hinted, like
nobody else stepped forward. That's the problem. Nobody else stepped forward. Uh.
Cuomo has been trying to hit Curtis hard all day,
yelling and screaming he's the candidate of the party. Bosses
he's the candidate of Pataki and Giuliani, and they're only
doing it because they think Mamdannie will hurt the Democratic Party.
(20:38):
That's the only you know, I've talked to Giuliani and
Pataki even last night about this. That's not the reason
they're doing it. They really believe in Curtis. Giuliani believes
Curtis is the closest thing you ever even get to
him as mayor. He even calls him Giuliani two point zero.
Pataki is very much behind Curtis, even helped him with
the debate prep all of that stuff. Hey, we'll take
(21:02):
some more calls later. We'll get back to the debate.
When we come back, we'll talk to rondaser if you're
thinking of moving to Florida. She's the expert on this.
We'll give you the ups and the downs and lots
of other things to talk to her about. Coming up

Speaker 7 (21:51):
I'm so good. I'm so worried about you and New
York City right now. I caught a lot of the
debate last night. And that name Jannys me that's smirk,
that smirk of his I mean, he's just he's mister
smooth and he's scary. I'm sorry. You better come to
Florida where it's safe and and and there's no crime.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And the crime in Florida. You got some really bad
parts of Miami, Orlando, Tampa, You've got plenty of crime
down there.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
There's no anti Semitic people that that's going to round
people up. It's not good telling you. I'm just speaking
from my heart here.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
We got through eight years at Doublasio. This will be fine,
but it's not over till it's over.
Speaker 7 (22:38):
Really, I want Curtis to win. I don't know how
that can happen, but I want him to win. He
was great, Uh, I don't even though they kept cutting
him off and he was great.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah, the moderators trying very hard. To hide Curtis, but
he clearly won the debate. I don't know anybody noticed.
Speaker 7 (22:52):
It was hard to hide him. Say he was in
the middle.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
And you're very good at evaluating men. Give us your
rundown of Andrew Cuomo.
Speaker 7 (23:01):
Oh my gosh. Well, first of all, please stop the ozempic.
Stop the ozempic. That man looked like a scorny scale.
He was great for Halloween. He's like perfect.
Speaker 6 (23:12):
I mean he used to.
Speaker 7 (23:13):
I didn't like what he was doing, but I used
to watch him, you know, during the pandemic, and he
would come on all tossed and breezing. I mean, he
was entertaining before he you know, so many people went
into the Olfos home. But but he was. But he
was good with his brother. And now he's like this
shadow of what he was like just just for that,
I mean, just from an outsider looking in, he's not
(23:36):
that same man. He just seems a shame. But seriously,
his weight loss is terrible. Yeah, I don't know, I
don't know why. What is he trying to look like
a super female model. I don't know, but he did.
He lost that bravado that you know, that masculinity that
he did have.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Yeah, right, that's probably he was one thing to you know,
tighten up your stomach or you know, tighten your waist.
But he don't want to lose your bulk, your shoulders,
all that stuff.
Speaker 7 (24:02):
He just looks he was very but not only that.
You're right, though he was drawn, his shoulders were down.
He didn't look like a leader. Just forgetting you know,
I'm going to go from the total superficial, like Curtis
look great. The other guy looked like a slineball. He
looked like he would be smelly if you've got his beard.
I don't know something about his beard.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
I don't like.
Speaker 7 (24:21):
I mean just because I do like look at things
in a shallow way, and you know that. So but
looking at Quota because you know, I was hoping that
he would I mean beat Ma'm danny, how did you
say his name? I can't stand him. He's terrifying. And
if I lived in New York, I tell my cousin
all the time, and she's Jewish. I'm like, aren't you afraid?
(24:43):
And here's the funny thing about that, Like so many
of her Jewish friends are voting for him.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
It's not so many, it's not so many.
Speaker 7 (24:55):
She represents. I'm telling you, she goes to Conservative Synagogue
and she goes to Orthodox and the Orthodox was very
pro Palestine and they were really talking about him. So
I don't get it.
Speaker 10 (25:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
It depends what neighborhood you're in. There's some diehard.
Speaker 7 (25:13):
Possibly Diarrhaism exactly. Well, I mean, I keep she's She's like, gosh,
she can't stand them. But anyway, another back down. Let's
talk about Ronda today.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
All right, Hey, let's talk about Up All Night was
so popular, beloved the television show. Now explain it's coming back, right, It's.
Speaker 7 (25:30):
Coming back Mark ever since I talked to you in
my little podcast. This is so exciting.
Speaker 6 (25:34):
So I met.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
I was doing one of these conventions where you sign
autographs for fans, because Up All Night from ninety one
to ninety eight, I was Gilbert Gotley, was on God
Love Him on Saturday nights. I was on Friday nights.
We wrapped around movies on USA Network, and you know,
I thought about bringing it back, but you have to
have the movies. You have to have the library. You're
say network and a library of films, these schlocky films
(25:56):
back in the day which have made a huge resurgence.
Horror film are very hot right now, and I think
it's young people just didn't experience what we did in
the nineties and they're finding it and they're loving it.
So anyway, I was signing autographs in Knoxville, Kentucky, and
a gentleman came up to me from the Kings of Horror,
which you can find on YouTube just search Kings of Horror.
(26:17):
It's free subscribe. It's this wonderful horror channel and the
parent company owns licenses fourteen thousand titles. They're out of Prague.
It's an American man who owns it and just has
his hands and a lot of things. Anyway, loves very
short you know, I think I cold you. We built
a studio down here in Saint Petersburg, an all out,
(26:39):
twenty thousand foot studio for all things media, podcasts, Inflorencer's television,
whatever whatever you want to do. So we had done
that anyway, because we had this building that we wanted
to create the space on the west coast of Florida.
So they have the films, the Kings of Horror, and
we've got the studio. So we go into production literally
Monday first show is October twenty fifth on Kings of Herah.
(27:03):
It's a Halloween special. I am so excited. So people
have been asking me, well, how are you changing this
from the nineties. Well, I do not think I'm the
same age that I was, although I don't look bad
for an old bat, thank you. But I'm surrounding myself
because I love young actors and comics and stand up comics.
With an incredible cast of people that will come, and
(27:26):
some will be regulars and some I will have a
rotating cast of all the bee queens and the screen queens,
and the shows are really funny. And I have to
say this is the first time walk actually ever since
I spoke to you, left hands on from production from
start to finish. I've never done that from both sides.
It's exciting and I am having so much fun. So
our first show is October twenty fifth. Our second show
(27:48):
is November twenty second on Kings of Hoara, then December twentieth,
then we go every other week. So I am back.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
But where do we see it?
Speaker 7 (27:57):
Very easy go to YouTube search Kings of Horror are
just go to kingsofharraor dot com and if you want
all things Randa. Right now, I have a new website.
I have robshare dot com, which is my intimate apparel,
which you know about this is then if you go
to Ronda Share Up all Night dot com. It's everything
about the conventions. And I'm now booking to be signing
(28:17):
autographs and doing you know, having the all and also
filming from these from these events. So it's really fun.
It's it's his second breath that I'm having in my wife,
which is just I'm having a blast because I love
celebrating young people and comedy. I'm tired of turning on
Saturday Night Live and it's all politics, and as much
as I like talking it with you on the on
(28:39):
the surface, I want it to be just funny escapism
on a Saturday night that's totally fun. Joe Bob Breese
is still out there and it's great. We're a great
compliment to him. He's all things movie. We're going to
be a lot of comedy with a lot of people
that can talk about the films, like the directors and
the producers and and there's some magical sense. I don't
(29:00):
know if you remember Up All Night, but we do,
of course, very reminiscent of My heart Shaped Bed and
everything happens in Ronda's Dead though it's kind of like, pee,
wee heart.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
I heard.
Speaker 6 (29:12):
Did I say bed?
Speaker 7 (29:13):
I met Beveram. Although you know, you would be a
great guest for who's in Ronda's bad We always have
a guest of who's in Rhonda's bead And all we
do is like, you know, you're under the covers, and
then we pull back the covers and I do an
interview with you. So you would be wonderful. So I'm
inviting you on when you're next time you're in Florida,
when you're visiting Palm Beach, you come on over to
Tampa and you do a little bit with me on
(29:35):
the self. It'd be so much fun dwelling.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Hey, speaking of Tampa, Saint Petersburg is like becoming the
next hot spot of Florida, isn't it?
Speaker 7 (29:43):
And we just moved from there. You know, my husband
and I lived there for many years and it is
it is hot, hot, on fire. You would like it
because it has it's getting that New York vibe that
you walk everywhere, you do everything, you're building these incredible spaces.
It really is on fire.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Ye, beautiful buildings, chic cafes, beastros. Everything's going up in
Saint Petersburg.
Speaker 6 (30:06):
It is.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
But the thing is, when my husband and I were
looking to move because if I couldn't live in my
dream house, and my husband was done with it because
it was ten thousand square feet, it was too big,
he couldn't handle it. Blah blah blah. I loved it.
I loved it, had a lot of you know, charity
events there. But anyway, we downsized. It's still a nice
size home. I rand, but it's in Tampa. But the
thing about Saint Pete is, if you're not a walker,
(30:27):
which you are, you'll walk.
Speaker 10 (30:28):
You New York is walker.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
I love that.
Speaker 7 (30:29):
That's why you're so healthy. If you're not a walker,
then everything is kind of central Saint Pete downtown and
all the restaurants and you walk from one to another
to another. And if you were into driving, which I
prefer driving, it is a little hot here in the summer.
It's beautiful right now. Anyway, then it's great. Tampa's great too.
I mean, Tampa's exciting. There's no doubt.
Speaker 10 (30:49):
We've got the sports.
Speaker 7 (30:50):
Team that's not that exciting, but it's exciting. I don't
think New York's going to be so exciting after your
mayor election.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I'm telling you, well, I wish we had more time.
We'll have you back soon to talk about up all night.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
You have to say all night. I know you're too much.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
All night, all night. How's that?
Speaker 7 (31:13):
That's good? It's not bad, not bad?
Speaker 2 (31:14):
But what it give us? The title the King of Horror.
Speaker 10 (31:17):
It's the King.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
Go to YouTube and then you start Kings of Horror.
Just go directly the Kings of Horror dot com. It's
all things horror. They've got like two million subscribers. Now,
if you are a fan of horror films, we're bringing
that back. But I'll be bringing a lot of back
back what I did in the nineties, but with a
twist of today. It'll be funny, Mark, a lot of
funny sketches. The first three shows are very funny because
(31:40):
I had my hands in writing them.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
All right, sounds great.
Speaker 7 (31:44):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Check out Rondasheer dot com too, and follow her on
Instagram and Twitter and YouTube and everywhere. Rondasher thanks for
being with us.
Speaker 7 (31:54):
Thank you, Mark. I'll see you soon.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Take care. H Hey, don't forget coming up in noon,
Buck Sexton, Clay Travis. They'll have a great show today.
Lots to talk about right here on seven ten Woir Hey,
coming up in the next hour. We'll get to the
mayoral debate. We'll get to Letitia James, more trouble for her.
We'll get to John Bolton and Moore right after the
(32:16):
news here on seven ten wor
Nowor Presents the Mark Simone Show.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Hey, it's Friday. We got a lot to get to.
We'll go over the Mayor Old debate in just a second.
We'll get to President Trump meeting with Zelenski today in
the White House. Then also at the end of the day,
end of the afternoon, heading tomorrow Lago for the first time,
we'll get to John Bolton. By the way, this is
not lawfair. They keeps a lawfair going on. Lawfair is
(00:27):
when you get indicted in four cities at the same time. Bolton,
as Joe Paeshi would say in Casino, this guy was
begging to be made an example of. So we'll get
to him. Coming up, we'll get to Letitia James, even
more dirt coming out about her family. A lot of
stuff to get to. Last night's debate, Curtis won the debate.
(00:52):
Now here's the only problem. I don't know if anybody noticed.
That's the problem. Curtis was great, but there was no
clear moment knockout punch, incredible moment, nothing super viral. And
the other the real problem. This is a Channel four
WNBC TV and they did this last time. Very biased
when it comes to running debates. They should never be
(01:14):
allowed to do a debate. So the moderators were very
careful to keep any attention away from Curtis. They tried
to give Curtis as little time as possible. At one
point in the debate, he actually said to them, you
guys are trying to marginalize me. You're trying to keep
me out of this. Here's basically what happened, Mam donnie.
Who's a great debater, he was phenomenal in the primary debates.
(01:37):
He just wiped out Cuomo in this debate. He was good,
not as great as he was in the earlier debates
because he was being too careful. He had all his
slick salesman Mam donnie stuff going on, but he was
hedging and being a little more vague in his answers,
covering himself. So, but the good news for him is
Cuomo was just awful, as awful as he is when
(02:01):
he talks like this, and it was just too slow.
Curtis very You know, Curtis is the only professional debater
in the race. Curtis has done one hundred thousand debates.
He's been doing this professionally for thirty five years, Mom Donnie,
I don't know how it happened. But he's a very
very good debater. Cuomo a bumbling, stumbling, weak debater. And
(02:25):
he doesn't look right anymore. You know. It was a
good looking guy, but he's got that ozembic face now
and he got himself too skinny. I don't know why
he did that. He tries to project this tough guy.
You know, if you want to project a tough guy,
I means you got to have a little bulk to you.
You can't be a toothpick. It doesn't And the problem
is he projects weakness when he talks, and if you
(02:47):
look that skinny, it just enhances that whole weak look.
So he's got to put some It was a little
too late, but he should have kept some weight on
John pedorit's the great political analyst. Here's what he said
about Cuomo last night. And Pedoritz is a guy who
should be a Cuomo fan and a Democrat. But Podoritz
(03:08):
says about Cuomo, for a man who's running multiple elections
over the past twenty five years, Cuomo was shockingly inarticulate
and unable to sustain a single argument or a single answer.
There were moments when Cuomo sounded more like Luca Brazzi
stumbling through his thanks to Don Corleone for the wedding
(03:29):
invitation than he did like his own famously silver tongued father. Yeah,
that's a good point. Mario Cuomo was in his day
the greatest orator in American politics. He's with a phenomenal debater.
He was one of my debate coaches. We used to
when he was governor. He would come on once a
month and we'd come into the studio, we'd have a
(03:49):
one hour debate, and then afterwards he would stay and
he would give me a whole breakdown of everything I
did wrong. I mean, it was so helpful. He would
show me every year, dude, you did this. This the
best debate coach in the world. So if he did
that for me, I would imagine did that for Andrew
times a million. So I don't know what happened. It's
(04:11):
you know, it's the same thing with Hillary Clinton when
she's running at that time. Bill Clinton is the greatest
orator in American politics. She's married to the greatest political
speaker in the world, and she can't talk. She's horrible
in debate, she's horrible in speeches. Whatever it is, it
didn't rub off or I don't know, if you're too
close to the person, maybe you don't take the coaching
the way you should. So the next debate will be
(04:35):
Wednesday night next week Wednesday night. Now the problem with
that it's New York one, which nobody sees, and the
debate moderator, this is a horrible choice, should recuse himself.
It's Errol Lewis, who's the most partisan left wing guy
in the world. That's really inappropriate to have this guy
(04:55):
run a debate. It's absolutely ridiculous. So that's probably going
to go well for anybody with him doing it. But
here's some of last night's debate, and one of the
questions was experience.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
In other words, what these hen Blingman said is he
has no experience.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
What I don't have an experience, I make up for
an integrity, And what you don't have an integrity, you
could never make up for an experience.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
We have the architect and we have the apprentice of
no Cash fail, which was made in disjaction.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Yeah so, and by the way, Cuomo has been doing
a lot of interviews today and I noticed if you
listened to him a week ago doing interviews, it was
all about how bad Mom Dottie is, how great he is. Well,
if you're listening today doing interviews, he was really going
after Curtis. He was trying to hit Curtis hard, which
means he feels Curtis was very, very good. Last night.
(05:41):
He feels Curtis did a lot of damage because he
seems very busy trying to take out Curtis.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Now, this is no job for on the job training.
And if you look at the failed mayors, they're ones
that had no management experience.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Don't do it again.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
I have the experience of having served the New York
State Assembly for five years and watching a broken political system.
And what all of that experience has shown me, which
mister Cuomo can't seem to understand, is that it is
far too expensive, far too hard for New Yorkers to
afford to live in this city.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
He literally has never had a job. On his resume,
it says he in turned for his mother. You got
our hurricane. You were God forbid a nine to eleven
a health pandemic.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
And if we have a health pandemic, then why would
New Yorkers turn back to the governor who sent seniors
to their death and nursing homes.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
See, this is Cuomo's main problem. This is what happened
to him in the second debate in the primary, he
armed himself with all kinds of attacks. Cuomo had such
a horrible record as governor, did so many bad things
as governor. No matter what he tries to hit Mam
Dommie with, Mam Donnie's got these kind of comebacks. Cuomo
created the whole crime wave with his no bail, no jail,
(06:50):
with his defund the police. He actually did defund the
police with his closing all the prisons, letting the prisoners out,
redoing the parole board so they let all the I
was just horrible. And if you listen to them, to
him now trying to he's finally trying to explain away
some of that. He can't do it. He can't do it.
He's the no bail, no jail was the worst thing
(07:12):
anybody ever did to New York. And he's the guy
that pushed that. He didn't just sign it, he pushed
it in speech after speech. It was just horrible. So
he can't explain that away. Even the don't close Rikers Island,
he was the guy pushing to close Rikers island. He's
now arguing, well, I didn't say closed the island. I
meant closed the building. He the double talk just won't work. Israel,
(07:35):
obviously was a big topic.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
The assemblyman still won't say he believes that Israel has
the right to exist as a Jewish state. He is
a divisive personality.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
I've said time and again that I recognize Israel's right
to exist. I've said that I will not recognize anything Jewish,
said that I will not a Jewish state if I
would be allowed to finish that, I would not recognize
any states right to exist with a system of hierarchy
on the basis of race, of religion.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Who's under attack now more than ever before, and I
don't believe either of you have the capability, and he'll
protecting them with incredu semanticism.
Speaker 6 (08:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Now, Curtis went on to point out all the times
where there were horrible, horrible attacks on Jews and he
was there with the Guardian Angels to protect them. So
if you watch the whole thing, Curtis had a great night.
But again, I don't know if it was enough, and
I don't know if anybody noticed that he won the debate,
But the moderators were trying very hard to keep the
spotlight away from Curtis. This was also the Muslim vote
(08:34):
was in there a lot. Cuomo trying to suddenly go
to mosques and all that, something he never did before.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
I don't think in any way the Assemblyman is representative
of the Muslim community. Many of his positions don't even
follow the Muslim faith.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
You know, it took Andrew Cuomo being beaten by a
Muslim candidate in the Democratic primary for him to set
foot in a mosque. It's been an hour or twenty
minutes of this debate and we haven't heard Governor Cuomo
say the word of that's why he lost the primary.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Yeah, now, I think making that the real problem. If
it's affordability, if that's the issue, that's the real problem.
If there's an affordability crisis in New York, if things
are bad here, well then you got to get rid
of the Democrats because they've been running the whole place
for fifteen years. They've been running everything. They've been the mayor,
the governor, the legislature of the City Council. Everything has
(09:24):
been run by Democrats. So if it's a disaster in
the crisis blame them obviously. If it's that bad after
fifteen years of them, you switch parties, you switch to
something else. Here's more of the debate. Curtis now Curtis's
number one issue police crime.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
With this new police Outrage unit, Well, in danger women
and children in domestic violence situation, they will be killed,
they will be made.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Now they went into that. Social workers will answer domestic
violence calls. As cops will tell you, one of the
most dangerous things you can respond to is a domestic
violent it's called people get killed there. So you don't
want to send social workers in. And as Ray Kelly
and all the great experts have explained, NYPD has tried
that through the years, a million times. They've tried that
(10:11):
program where social workers respond to domestic violence. And they
find a few things. Well, A, it doesn't work. It's
never worked. They've tried it a number of times over
the decades. It doesn't work. And B the social workers
do not want to do this. They want the cops
with them on this. So and Cuomo keeps trying that. No,
(10:32):
he us no experience. You know, experience is a good
thing if you were good at it, if you had
a lot of experience and you were horrible at it.
Cuomo did so many awful things as governor. I don't
know it. May have the experience, but it's not good experience.
He has no experience.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
And this is not a job for someone who has
no management experience to run three hundred thousand people, no
financial experience to run one hundred and fifteen billion dollar budget.
He literally has never had a job.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah, he kept trying that. I don't know if that
works with anybody.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
Jews don't trust that you can be there for them
when they are victims of anti Semitic attacks.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
And what I'm looking to do as the first Muslim
mayor of the city is to ensure that we bring
every New Yorker together, Jewish new Yorkers, Muslim new Yorkers,
every single person that calls the city home.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Yeah. Now, this race is going to be about turnout.
The way you get a Deblasio elected is you have
eighteen percent turnout if nobody shows up, just the you know,
the energized far left shows up and you get a Deblasio.
So if it's the same thing happened in the primary,
if it's just eighteen percent, you know that's Mom Donnie.
And if you can get it presidential year kind of
(11:39):
a turnout, if you can get it to eighty percent,
then it's not necessarily Mom Donnie, So you got to
get it up to eighty percent. Cuomo cannot beat Mam Donnie.
It's impossible. He's been tested against Mom Donnie and the primaries.
He stinks at beating Mam Donnie. I was talking a
lot of the big, big, big donors yesterday. These are
the ones that back Cuomo. And as we always explain
(12:01):
to you, the big donors are always wrong every time
when it comes to politics. And when you try to explain,
we've seen that Cuomo is a disaster against Mam Donni.
Apparently the excuse he's given them and they're all falling
for this. They all keep repeating this. Well, that was
ranked choice, and it was the ranked choice. That Donnie
(12:22):
only beat Cuomo because of the ranked choice. This is
absolutely not true. If there were no ranked choice, he
would have beaten Cuomo in a much quicker Forget the
rank choice. It had nothing to do with the primary.
First first round of the primary, Cuomo got wiped out
by Mom Donnie. Mam Donnie beat him by one hundred
(12:42):
thousand votes. This is out of seven hundred thousand. Ma'm
donnie beat him by one hundred thousand votes. It wasn't
even close. Ranked choice was not a factor. Obviously, taxes
came up. That's a big issue.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
He's going to raise taxes, all of He's going to
raise taxes stayed wide on corporations. But the money's own
going to go to New York City. That could never happen.
It's not just that the governor wouldn't support it. It's impossible.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Yeah. Again, Quoto not an effective debater. He's got that
voice where he goes into that sing song. It doesn't
sound good when you do it in the debate. Sound
like a housewife in Long Island. You do that.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
What I tell the President is if he ever wants
to come for New Yorkers in the way that he
has been, he's going to have to get through me
as the next mayor of the city.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
If you try to get tough with Trump, the only
people who are going to suffer from that are the
people of New York City.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
When I'm fighting for New York, I am not going
to stop. And I'll tell you something else. If the
Assemblyman is elected mayor Donald Trump will take over New
York City and it will be Mayor Trump.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Who runs New York City.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Now here's the
only hope here. Curtis did win. I don't think there
was enough of a knockout punch, or enough of a
moment to go super viral or enough people. I don't know.
I don't You can never tell after a debate. You
got to wait a couple of days for it all
sink in. And remember now it goes all over the place.
(14:08):
It's all over social media, streaming, YouTube, it's everywhere. It
takes a few days for everybody to see it. So
we'll see what the effect is, probably by monday. I
don't know. You can't tell. Now, how do you stop
mom Donnie. If this isn't going to stop him, Well,
there are all those investigations into the money this guy
(14:31):
came out of nowhere, founds him out fifty million and
sorrows type money flowed into him, somethink from around the world,
something from China, all different countries. If they can trace that,
prove that this foreign money in the campaign, they can
remove Mom Donnie. He can be taken away, can even
be indicted. Some think he'll never serve as mayor even
if he wins that they'll get him on that stuff
(14:52):
and take him out of the picture legally, just take
him away legally. And the only other thing is there
are Justice Department officials who have said if he becomes mayor,
if he does anything to the Jewish community, if he
does anything wrong, they the Justice Department officials have said
(15:13):
they will come here and arrest him for a hate crime.
So you got that going on, but we'll see. We'll
take some calls in a minute. Eight hundred three two
one zero seven ten is the numbers you want to say?
What you if you watch the debate, you got an opinion?
Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Give wor oh, Bri said on the iHeart radio app
to hear Mark Simone and all the WOR hosts in
an instance, go back to the Marximo show on WOR.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Maggie in Iowa. Maggie,
how you doing?
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Oh hey, hi, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
Well they got phones there in Iowa. Now wow, that's
very good.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
Oh yeah, we do. Yeah, it's not nice. Yeah, Hey,
I just have a question. I just followed this race
from a distance and listen to you in the morning,
and I'm just curious, why isn't anybody asking Mondami about
his record as an assembling man. Didn't he only like
bring one piece of legislation to the floor.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Yeah, it's a good question. This is the Democratic model
now since Obama, you get a slick look and salesman
of a guy with no record. And Obama did the
same thing when he was in Congress. When he was
in the same did absolutely nothing. He barely showed up,
didn't vote, didn't do anything that you deliberately don't have
a record that way, there's no problem.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
Well that's yeah, that's what I'm thinking clear out here
in Iowa. Why doesn't somebody ask those questions? What could
he vote on?
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Well, it's a good point. The problem is you only
got one debate left and it's the most biased partisan
Democrat moderator Errol Lewis, so he's not going to ask that.
But good point, Maggie. But thanks for calling. Thanks a lot.
Let's go to Patrick and Scarsdale. Patrick, how you doing
very well?
Speaker 7 (17:04):
Mark?
Speaker 8 (17:04):
How are you today?
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Good?
Speaker 8 (17:06):
Good? Now, I'm just thinking of Curtis's path to victory.
We know Staten Island is very Republican and it's highly
likely he'll carry that. Aren't areas of the Bronx like
the Riverdale area high Jewish population he could possibly explore
as well.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Yeah, you know, obviously he'll do very very well with
the Jewish population. Problem is the Jewish population. It's not
as big as you think percentage wise, and not enough
to carry an election, but it's an important group and
he'll do that. You got you got a lot of
Republican votes in Queen's Staten Island, believe or not in
the Bronx. So, uh, the problem is and Curtis has
(17:45):
been very good with the TV commercials and you know,
social media ads and all that they have been. He's
been bombarding the airways with great commercials. Cloma's got a
couple of commercials. They're not that effective. Mom Donnie is
mostly a social media very good there. But we'll see.
Second debate is Wednesday night. But that's on New York One,
(18:06):
a little watch channel, and they got the most slanted
bias moderator eron Lewis doing it. Let's go to John
in Westchester, John, how you doing.
Speaker 9 (18:16):
Okay, I just wanted to make a mention of the
great Aura and Governor Clombo when he was running and
abortion came up, he would say, I'm personally against it,
but the people wanted and then yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Now, the only thing is abortion is not an issue here.
It's absolutely not an issue. Abortion is totally legal in
New York, always will be it. Never ever it will
be in jeopardy. It's not an issue in this campaign.
Was not an issue in the presidential campaign either. Let's
go to you know a problem. We're getting all these
great calls. The only problem is, and we love all
of you, but you're not in New York City. You're
not actually voters Scarsdale, Iowa, Long Island. I mean, keep calling,
(19:05):
but you're not the voters who can That's the problem.
If the whole Tri state area could vote mom, Donnie
wouldn't have a chance. If the whole just metropolitan area
and the suburbs could vote Mom, Donnie wouldn't have a chance.
Let's go to Bill in New Jersey. Bill, how you
doing good?
Speaker 10 (19:20):
And thank you? Mark, speaking of both New York and
New Jersey elections, could you please tell your political context
that Jack Chitdarelli needs to hammer hammer away on the
issue of no cash bail, the crime problem in his
I haven't seen too much.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Yeah, but that's not how it works. People to do
it well, I haven't seen it. It doesn't matter. As
long as everybody else sees it, that's what works. Let's
go to Fran in Massapequa. Fran How you doing, my man?
What's up? Baby? Listen? The bottom line is this.
Speaker 8 (19:50):
It's that the race in Manhattan.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I mean New York, I call it Manhattan.
Speaker 8 (19:55):
It starts with the right candidates.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Look at the candidates the Republican to put and the
perfect example that he got Curtis, good guy, what candidate?
What candidate would you put in? No, I don't know,
I don't know. There you go, I asked our Republican
party chairman. I said, if it wasn't Curtis, who are
you going to go with?
Speaker 8 (20:15):
Then?
Speaker 6 (20:16):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (20:16):
He didn't say exactly, but he kind of hinted, like
nobody else stepped forward. That's the problem. Nobody else stepped forward. Uh.
Cuomo has been trying to hit Curtis hard all day,
yelling and screaming he's the candidate of the party. Bosses
he's the candidate of Pataki and Giuliani, and they're only
doing it because they think Mamdannie will hurt the Democratic Party.
(20:38):
That's the only you know, I've talked to Giuliani and
Pataki even last night about this. That's not the reason
they're doing it. They really believe in Curtis. Giuliani believes
Curtis is the closest thing you ever even get to
him as mayor. He even calls him Giuliani two point zero.
Pataki is very much behind Curtis, even helped him with
the debate prep all of that stuff. Hey, we'll take
(21:02):
some more calls later. We'll get back to the debate.
When we come back, we'll talk to rondaser if you're
thinking of moving to Florida. She's the expert on this.
We'll give you the ups and the downs and lots
of other things to talk to her about. Coming up
next on seven ten wor The News.

shopping and up all night, coming back and making a
huge return. Ronda Sheer, how you doing.
Speaker 7 (21:51):
I'm so good. I'm so worried about you and New
York City right now. I caught a lot of the
debate last night. And that name Jannys me that's smirk,
that smirk of his I mean, he's just he's mister
smooth and he's scary. I'm sorry. You better come to
Florida where it's safe and and and there's no crime.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And the crime in Florida. You got some really bad
parts of Miami, Orlando, Tampa, You've got plenty of crime
down there.
Speaker 7 (22:24):
There's no anti Semitic people that that's going to round
people up. It's not good telling you. I'm just speaking
from my heart here.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
We got through eight years at Doublasio. This will be fine,
but it's not over till it's over.
Speaker 7 (22:38):
Really, I want Curtis to win. I don't know how
that can happen, but I want him to win. He
was great, Uh, I don't even though they kept cutting
him off and he was great.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Yeah, the moderators trying very hard. To hide Curtis, but
he clearly won the debate. I don't know anybody noticed.
Speaker 7 (22:52):
It was hard to hide him. Say he was in
the middle.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
And you're very good at evaluating men. Give us your
rundown of Andrew Cuomo.
Speaker 7 (23:01):
Oh my gosh. Well, first of all, please stop the ozempic.
Stop the ozempic. That man looked like a scorny scale.
He was great for Halloween. He's like perfect.
Speaker 6 (23:12):
I mean he used to.
Speaker 7 (23:13):
I didn't like what he was doing, but I used
to watch him, you know, during the pandemic, and he
would come on all tossed and breezing. I mean, he
was entertaining before he you know, so many people went
into the Olfos home. But but he was. But he
was good with his brother. And now he's like this
shadow of what he was like just just for that,
I mean, just from an outsider looking in, he's not
(23:36):
that same man. He just seems a shame. But seriously,
his weight loss is terrible. Yeah, I don't know, I
don't know why. What is he trying to look like
a super female model. I don't know, but he did.
He lost that bravado that you know, that masculinity that
he did have.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Yeah, right, that's probably he was one thing to you know,
tighten up your stomach or you know, tighten your waist.
But he don't want to lose your bulk, your shoulders,
all that stuff.
Speaker 7 (24:02):
He just looks he was very but not only that.
You're right, though he was drawn, his shoulders were down.
He didn't look like a leader. Just forgetting you know,
I'm going to go from the total superficial, like Curtis
look great. The other guy looked like a slineball. He
looked like he would be smelly if you've got his beard.
I don't know something about his beard.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
I don't like.
Speaker 7 (24:21):
I mean just because I do like look at things
in a shallow way, and you know that. So but
looking at Quota because you know, I was hoping that
he would I mean beat Ma'm danny, how did you
say his name? I can't stand him. He's terrifying. And
if I lived in New York, I tell my cousin
all the time, and she's Jewish. I'm like, aren't you afraid?
(24:43):
And here's the funny thing about that, Like so many
of her Jewish friends are voting for him.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
It's not so many, it's not so many.
Speaker 7 (24:55):
She represents. I'm telling you, she goes to Conservative Synagogue
and she goes to Orthodox and the Orthodox was very
pro Palestine and they were really talking about him. So
I don't get it.
Speaker 10 (25:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
It depends what neighborhood you're in. There's some diehard.
Speaker 7 (25:13):
Possibly Diarrhaism exactly. Well, I mean, I keep she's She's like, gosh,
she can't stand them. But anyway, another back down. Let's
talk about Ronda today.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
All right, Hey, let's talk about Up All Night was
so popular, beloved the television show. Now explain it's coming back, right, It's.
Speaker 7 (25:30):
Coming back Mark ever since I talked to you in
my little podcast. This is so exciting.
Speaker 6 (25:34):
So I met.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
I was doing one of these conventions where you sign
autographs for fans, because Up All Night from ninety one
to ninety eight, I was Gilbert Gotley, was on God
Love Him on Saturday nights. I was on Friday nights.
We wrapped around movies on USA Network, and you know,
I thought about bringing it back, but you have to
have the movies. You have to have the library. You're
say network and a library of films, these schlocky films
(25:56):
back in the day which have made a huge resurgence.
Horror film are very hot right now, and I think
it's young people just didn't experience what we did in
the nineties and they're finding it and they're loving it.
So anyway, I was signing autographs in Knoxville, Kentucky, and
a gentleman came up to me from the Kings of Horror,
which you can find on YouTube just search Kings of Horror.
(26:17):
It's free subscribe. It's this wonderful horror channel and the
parent company owns licenses fourteen thousand titles. They're out of Prague.
It's an American man who owns it and just has
his hands and a lot of things. Anyway, loves very
short you know, I think I cold you. We built
a studio down here in Saint Petersburg, an all out,
(26:39):
twenty thousand foot studio for all things media, podcasts, Inflorencer's television,
whatever whatever you want to do. So we had done
that anyway, because we had this building that we wanted
to create the space on the west coast of Florida.
So they have the films, the Kings of Horror, and
we've got the studio. So we go into production literally
Monday first show is October twenty fifth on Kings of Herah.
(27:03):
It's a Halloween special. I am so excited. So people
have been asking me, well, how are you changing this
from the nineties. Well, I do not think I'm the
same age that I was, although I don't look bad
for an old bat, thank you. But I'm surrounding myself
because I love young actors and comics and stand up comics.
With an incredible cast of people that will come, and
(27:26):
some will be regulars and some I will have a
rotating cast of all the bee queens and the screen queens,
and the shows are really funny. And I have to
say this is the first time walk actually ever since
I spoke to you, left hands on from production from
start to finish. I've never done that from both sides.
It's exciting and I am having so much fun. So
our first show is October twenty fifth. Our second show
(27:48):
is November twenty second on Kings of Hoara, then December twentieth,
then we go every other week. So I am back.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
But where do we see it?
Speaker 7 (27:57):
Very easy go to YouTube search Kings of Horror are
just go to kingsofharraor dot com and if you want
all things Randa. Right now, I have a new website.
I have robshare dot com, which is my intimate apparel,
which you know about this is then if you go
to Ronda Share Up all Night dot com. It's everything
about the conventions. And I'm now booking to be signing
(28:17):
autographs and doing you know, having the all and also
filming from these from these events. So it's really fun.
It's it's his second breath that I'm having in my wife,
which is just I'm having a blast because I love
celebrating young people and comedy. I'm tired of turning on
Saturday Night Live and it's all politics, and as much
as I like talking it with you on the on
(28:39):
the surface, I want it to be just funny escapism
on a Saturday night that's totally fun. Joe Bob Breese
is still out there and it's great. We're a great
compliment to him. He's all things movie. We're going to
be a lot of comedy with a lot of people
that can talk about the films, like the directors and
the producers and and there's some magical sense. I don't
(29:00):
know if you remember Up All Night, but we do,
of course, very reminiscent of My heart Shaped Bed and
everything happens in Ronda's Dead though it's kind of like, pee,
wee heart.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
I heard.
Speaker 6 (29:12):
Did I say bed?
Speaker 7 (29:13):
I met Beveram. Although you know, you would be a
great guest for who's in Ronda's bad We always have
a guest of who's in Rhonda's bead And all we
do is like, you know, you're under the covers, and
then we pull back the covers and I do an
interview with you. So you would be wonderful. So I'm
inviting you on when you're next time you're in Florida,
when you're visiting Palm Beach, you come on over to
Tampa and you do a little bit with me on
(29:35):
the self. It'd be so much fun dwelling.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Hey, speaking of Tampa, Saint Petersburg is like becoming the
next hot spot of Florida, isn't it?
Speaker 7 (29:43):
And we just moved from there. You know, my husband
and I lived there for many years and it is
it is hot, hot, on fire. You would like it
because it has it's getting that New York vibe that
you walk everywhere, you do everything, you're building these incredible spaces.
It really is on fire.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Ye, beautiful buildings, chic cafes, beastros. Everything's going up in
Saint Petersburg.
Speaker 6 (30:06):
It is.
Speaker 7 (30:06):
But the thing is, when my husband and I were
looking to move because if I couldn't live in my
dream house, and my husband was done with it because
it was ten thousand square feet, it was too big,
he couldn't handle it. Blah blah blah. I loved it.
I loved it, had a lot of you know, charity
events there. But anyway, we downsized. It's still a nice
size home. I rand, but it's in Tampa. But the
thing about Saint Pete is, if you're not a walker,
(30:27):
which you are, you'll walk.
Speaker 10 (30:28):
You New York is walker.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
I love that.
Speaker 7 (30:29):
That's why you're so healthy. If you're not a walker,
then everything is kind of central Saint Pete downtown and
all the restaurants and you walk from one to another
to another. And if you were into driving, which I
prefer driving, it is a little hot here in the summer.
It's beautiful right now. Anyway, then it's great. Tampa's great too.
I mean, Tampa's exciting. There's no doubt.
Speaker 10 (30:49):
We've got the sports.
Speaker 7 (30:50):
Team that's not that exciting, but it's exciting. I don't
think New York's going to be so exciting after your
mayor election.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I'm telling you, well, I wish we had more time.
We'll have you back soon to talk about up all night.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
You have to say all night. I know you're too much.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
All night, all night. How's that?
Speaker 7 (31:13):
That's good? It's not bad, not bad?
Speaker 2 (31:14):
But what it give us? The title the King of Horror.
Speaker 10 (31:17):
It's the King.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
Go to YouTube and then you start Kings of Horror.
Just go directly the Kings of Horror dot com. It's
all things horror. They've got like two million subscribers. Now,
if you are a fan of horror films, we're bringing
that back. But I'll be bringing a lot of back
back what I did in the nineties, but with a
twist of today. It'll be funny, Mark, a lot of
funny sketches. The first three shows are very funny because
(31:40):
I had my hands in writing them.
