Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's the Mark Simon Show on sevent TENR.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Well the Great talk show host comedian Jimmy Fayla. He
does a great show. It's on WR now every night
nine to midnight, every weeknight nine to midnight. Check it
out tonight. He also does the best late night show
on TV Saturday nights ten o'clock on the Fox News Channel.
Jimmy Fayla, How you doing?
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I'm doing good, Mark. I was thrilled to hear Trump
make a deal with Hamas. Did you hear how he
got it done? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (00:31):
No, how do you get here?
Speaker 1 (00:32):
YEA? Well, you know, obviously Netanyahu had been attacking the
bombingum quitty aggressively, but Trump said if they didn't sign,
he was going to send over Katie Porter and they
didn't want to tangle with her. If you saw that interview,
she's a fierce fighting force.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah, she's also the one who's doing a podcast and
somebody was in the way. Get that out of my
FN shot. But to be monster, to be fair, you
work on TV. How many times through the years of
you heard a host yell at somebody like that?
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Oh, I got to tell you. Yeah. The thing is that.
The thing is I know it goes on. But what
you see on her is that is just her vibe.
Like she wasn't yelling because someone was in her shot.
She was yelling because she yells. I know the difference
between the person who's like not happy with the way
things are going and a person who is just not happy.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
She kind of has that energy. Yeah, and she's a Democrat.
Will she get out of the race? I guess she
has to now.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
I don't know. The other guy didn't drop out for
saying he wants to kill his opponent. I don't know
what Barr is actually probably not. I mean, I guess
her biggest crime is she didn't say it in the
text message, So I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
It could be Jimmy Fayler. Were you at the Yankee
game last night?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
You better believe it. And you know what I noticed
is Yankee Stadium obviously, Uh, you know, tough loss. We
wanted win that game. And I have formerly called now
that Toronto beat US. I have called Trump and demanded
that he invade Canada, which I think should happen two
hundred percent tariffs whatever we got.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Uh, but you kind of could see that coming, couldn't you?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
The Yeah, I mean this, this this team has been
pretty inconsistent all year. I mean, but what do you
want for three hundred and twenty million dollars? You know,
It's like maybe if we were giving these guys some money.
You know, It's like these guys got enough stress from
trying to live on those forty million dollars salaries. It's like,
you know, when when's there sat one of the salad days,
(02:37):
going to come in for the for Anthony Fulty and
that supermodel.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Girlfriend is you know, hey, I was the game was over,
but I didn't know it was over. Like he struck
out the guys. This is that two outset to the
crowd was just silent, There was no What was it
like in the stadium? Did everybody just silently file out?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Yeah? Well, in my section, I was in right field,
and I don't know, I don't know if you know this,
but everyone in right field drinks like they're pledging a fraternity. Okay,
So in my section, the rest of the stadium was,
as you just said, it was like a seance, okay.
But my section continued to hurl profanities at the other
(03:16):
players even after they had left. Like if you ever
you ever walk down the street and see a guy
arguing with a parking meter. This guy's out to lunch.
That was Section one oh five and Yankee Stadium last night.
They were lunatics crazy. But the one nice thing is
on the way out, you know, everybody was in a
bad enough mood that I didn't have to stop and
(03:37):
take a bunch of you know, like fifty pictures. There's
a lot of Fox fans at Yankee Stadium, and everybody
is I'm very friendly. I love, genuinely love meeting people,
but I'm bad at un meeting them. Meaning if someone
comes up to me and says, well they watch the show.
I talked to them for thirteen minutes and I get
home at two in the morning and my wife thinks
I was in a gentleman's club or something, and I'm like, no,
I was actually hanging out with a fifty year old
(03:59):
man was wearing a baseball myth. The complete opposite of
getting women. Uh.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
You know, when those fans come up to you, you can't stop.
I mean, you can talk and say nice things, but
you got to keep moving. You can't stop or your corner.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yeah, I know, you got to. You gotta learn that
I haven't been. I haven't been like a public figure
for as long as you've been a famous person like
I watched. I've watched you get in and out of
Fox a few times. Now, you're good at it. I'm
learning and it helped. I was on the road with Hannity.
It helped too. I think that's why he learned karate,
because you know, he's so tired of getting groped by
these old ladies at the book signings. He just busts
(04:33):
out around out.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Hannity's the best at getting out, you know, through the
service entrance, out the the loading dock. He was perfect.
So you got to do that. But well, when you're
that big, you got to do that kind of stuff. Hey,
uh uh, what AOC? I love that fight AOC had
with Stephen Miller and she said, well, here's only four
foot eleven. What the hell is she talking about?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
You know, I laughed about that on Ingram. I tweeted
this too, forgive me. But you know, she said he
was four foot ten. He's five foot ten, so I said,
this is actually progress. She was only off by a
foot on his height, where she was off by forty
miles when she said she grew up in the Bronx.
That was really think about that.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
That's a pretty big lie about a tough kid from
the Bronx. It turns out she's from Yorktown Heights, which
is a beautiful suburb.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
A one a gorgeous suburb. A one hundred and fifty
five dollars cab ride from the Bronx. If you were
to leave the Bronx like one hundred and sixty second
in River Avenue by Yankee Stadium and drive to Yorktown Heights,
you're going to pay one hundred and fifty five dollars. Now,
if there's if it's if you know surge pricing, Uber's
going to charge your four thy three hundred and twelve dollars.
(05:40):
But a taxi, a taxi one fifty five. So yes,
the enormity of that front. Like, you know, it's bad
when Elizabeth Warren's calling you a fraud in her teepee,
that's not good. Hey.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Speaking of cab rights, you know this new lift wants
a new policy where you know, the driver can see
you're rating. Now, the driver can see you're tipping his
street to see how you tip?
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Is that fair?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Uh? That's well I could tell you this. I think
it's not accurate because I don't tip on the app.
I give them cash. So it's really interesting. My passenger
rating is five stars because I tip these guys. Like
I said, I have survivors guilt from being a cab driver,
so I tip. I tip cab drivers to the point
that they think I'm romantically interested in them. They're like, wow,
(06:25):
this is wow. I must have really hit it off
with their Scott. I'm giving them everything I have though
I have a five star Uber rating, but what you
just said had never dawned on me. I've never tipped
on the app once. Oh but they give you a
good rating just because you've tipped cash just the same.
So I don't know if they can accurately do it
unless the guys have to enter, which they probably don't
want to enter. That you might have gave them forty
(06:46):
or fifty bucks because that's more income they got to claim.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Yeah, well, a lot of passengers want this thing overturned.
They don't want this thing to exist. But if it sticks,
you got to figure Uber will do it next too soon.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Oh yeah, there's it. It's the copycat medium, just the same.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Hey, you got to listen to. Jimmy Failey does a
great show every night nine to midnight on w o R.
It's excellent. What what he got on tonight?
Speaker 1 (07:10):
So it says a locko And I was suppose that
Ted NuGen on the MotorCity mad Man. He's fired up.
He usually plays his guitar and screams at me about America.
It's always fun. We subtitled it in English at the
end of the interview it's Ted's rowdy. I love to
talk to He's rowdy. And we've got a couple of
couple of Fox girls are coming by to have a
conversation about this. Some feminist site is out. They say
(07:33):
Taylor Swift is secretly MAGA, which I think is fascinating.
But I don't know because she owns a private jet,
which is usually what the climate change people do, you know,
So she's not mega. She's more John Kerry than anythingure.
She's got a private jet, so I don't know if
she's Mega, but I'm excited to have the talk.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Well, there are a lot of closet Republicans in music,
and there were even a couple of MSNBC hosts who
were secretly Republicans. It was all an act, but I
believe that. And then Saturday Night you do. It's I
love that Saturday night show. It's every Saturday night at
ten o'clock and it's too early to say what you
got this Saturday night?
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Right Ronda Rowsey? Ronda Rowsey, famous WWE legend, a MMA fighter,
And it's funny because her publicist said, don't make fun
of her, she'll hit you, and I said, no, it's okay.
I'm into that. So hopefully I'm glad to get Ronda
to rough me up on the air.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
He does. It's the best late night show. It's Saturday
nights at ten o'clock on the Fox News channel, and
then you can hear him tonight every weeknight on w
R nine to midnight. And well, you haven't. You're adjusting
that of doing radio. It's fun, isn't it?
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Oh? I love it. It's a good hang because we
have more time to have this conversation. You know, TV
is an assembly line. Well, I'm talking on TV. There's
a picture of a guy coming up next with a
story underneath me that has nothing to do with either
of us. There's some promotion on the right side of
the screen. TV. It's just you know, it's a it's
a Jackson Pollock painting. These days it's so busy. Whereas
(09:04):
radio we just got to talk. We probably covered seven subjects. Yeah,
you get one and you're out. They fire you out
with like a water canon so the next guy can
come in.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Yeah, and you start your answering that guy in your
ears going rap rapping up.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
It's so true, man, I haven't said anything yet. They're like,
Jimmy Phyler joins us, Now rap does he mean rap? Should?
I'd like beatbox? What does he mean by that? I
haven't spoken.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Well, everybody listen, you gotta listen tonight. He does a
great shows every night nine to midnight. You can hear
it tonight nine to midnight on seven ten w O
or Jimmy Phyla, thanks for being with us. You're the man,
Mark dude, take care. Hey, don't forget Buck and Clay.
