Speaker 1 (00:00):
In Mark on demand by setting up presead for his
podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Now back to Mark Simone on wor.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Diane in Illinois. Diane,
how you doing.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
I'm doing really good, Mark, Hey, because I live in Illinois,
I can't vote in your mayoral election. But I love
New York. It's a wonderful city. I'm a little confused, though,
you said that this month DOWNNY guy just became a
citizen a group up in Uganda. But I see commercials
where he brags about being a kid growing up in
New York City.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Yeah. No, he only came here in recent years. He
only became a citizen. I think five or six years ago.
He'd been here much longer. But no, he's from Uganda.
They still have a home, and you got how many
people you know have a weekend home in Uganda's short?
All right, Diane, thanks for Colin. Let's go to Rich
(00:54):
Myrtle Beach.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Rich.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
How you doing pretty good?
Speaker 5 (00:57):
Mark? Thanks? You know, when I found out that the
Obama We're going to be part owners or get money
from Netflix, I was never given Netflix up any of
my hard earned money ever, But as you think any
of this has to do with Elon Musk home for
the boycott of Netflix and why they're going down a
tube sit.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Oh yeah, no, no, that definitely helped, definitely helps stock
is plunging Netflix in trouble this. I don't know why
they got so involved in promoting transgender nonsense. I don't
know why they why.
Speaker 5 (01:23):
The post I saw a post I Peter King talk
about my Donnie this, I'm Donnie that. But one of
these Republicans doing to come in and try to get
people to vote Republican, because, like you've mentioned many times,
if you only get a twenty percent turnout, I'm Donnie wins.
If you get fifty percent of more, Curtis might actually
win this thing.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yeah, high turnout, Curtis wins. Yeah, you're right. That's that's
the main problem. The Republican Party in New York is
a tiny thing. It's a little tiny thing. The Democrats
have a massive ground game. Ground game is the key.
That's the teams that people that go out and get
knock on doors and get voters and then on election
day they bring them to the polls. The Democrats have
(02:02):
like sixty thousand in that army that ground game. Republicans
nothing nothing, No, there's barely a Republican party in New York.
That's really the problem. Let's go to Chris and Manhattan. Chris,
how you doing good?
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Thanks Mark. Listen, you said before that people if Curtis
were to drop out, people wouldn't vote for Cuomo. No,
I would no. But I don't want Mandanmie, and I
want quote, I want Curtis to win, but I don't
think Curtis can win. So it was between Monday.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Well, well, there's one thing we know for a fact,
because we've already there's one thing we absolutely know. We've
tested it. Cuomo cannot beat Mom Donnie. We tried it
in the primary. He got wiped out in two debates.
He got wiped out in the So we know for
a fact he can't beat Mom Donnie. Now you're gonna
have it. There's nobody else, Yeah, there's Curtis, and you'll
have a debate October sixteenth. That'll be Curtis's shot to
(02:52):
change the whole dynamic by.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Just Curtis for the record.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
But yeah, you remember if quote, we know Clomo can't
beat Mom Donnie. We already tried that. That's how you
got stuck with Mom Donnie because Cuomo was so weak
against him in the debates. But if Curtis were to
drop out, none of those votes would go to Cuomo,
none of them. There's no Curtis. We're talking about normal people,
We're talking about rational, saying people. But nobody would go
(03:19):
to the Curtis voter is not going to switch to Cuomo.
You know, when Adams dropped out, we find that half
those voters went to Mom Donnie. So it's not about
everybody dropping out. Anybody was going to be for Cuomo.
It's already for Cuomo. And it's all people that just
got bulldozed by Cuomo. Can't We've tried him against Mom Donnie.
(03:39):
You know, Mam Donnie started out in the primary as
zero at zero. Once you had two debates with Cuomo,
he went to forty points and he just Cuomo is
so weak as a debater. Let's go to Joel in Florida. Joel,
how you doing.
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Good morning, Mark. I hope you had a good weekend.
I want you to have a good week short of
the fluss of revenue in your opinion, is there anything
that can occur that could make the mainstream media the
non woke as woke as they have been.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
New ownership, new ownership, and it's gonna that'll take time.
But a good question you got. CBS now has a
new owner, David Ellison, son of Larry Ellison. He's taken
over CBS. He's brought in a new This is now
confirmed by the Way today. It will be Barry Weiss,
the new director of CBS News. She's from the New
York Times, but she's a sane, rational, old fashioned moderate
(04:34):
sort of a Democrat, and she does not like the
slanted news coverage. She will clean up CBS News. You'll
see a mutiny, You'll see a lot of people leave.
He has done this with CBS now. He's trying to
get Warner Brothers Discovery, which would include CNN. He would
then clean up CNN. He saw Musk do it with Twitter.
He cleaned up Twitter. It was the most biased left
(04:56):
wing censoring, crazy place, banning Trump, banning conservatives. Musk bought it,
cleaned it up. So you'll see CBS get cleaned up next.
And if he gets a hold of CNN, you'll see
that get cleaned up. Let's go to Joanne in New Jersey. Joanne,
how you doing.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
Yeah. Hi, are you familiar with jimash the singer from
kazakh Stan who played manson Square Garden last night?
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Yes, What do you think be the next Michael Jackson?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
No? No, you got a little at least good, but
you still got a waste.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
You don't.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
It's it's like that everybody was the next Beatles, Now
everybody's the next Michael Jackson. It doesn't really work that way.
Let's go to Richard and Bayshore. Richard, how you doing.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
I'm doing well. Marked. This is when the total value
of all the savings from the upcoming shutdown cuts or tallied.
I think a good political move would be to apply
some portion of that money right away to an increase
in the cola that's coming for Social Security, to get
a bonus coll and this way people can see what
(06:03):
their money can be used for instead of what was nonsense.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah, no, there's a lot of plans. But also with
the deficit of the trade deficit money, the tariff money,
there's talk about both these things. Take that money. Let's
talk about a rebate check. Send everybody, well, it'd be
everybody like under two hundred thousand a year. Send everybody
a check for five thousand dollars. Now some are arguing
with Trump, don't send these rebate checks. Pay down the
(06:27):
deficit with it, pay down the debt with it. I
think people rather have the check. We're always going to
have this debt. We live with it. You can pay
it down.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Bill Clinton brought the debt down, almost the deficit down
to nothing, but it just pops right back up. But
you will get something. You will profit heavily off the shutdown. Hey,
when we come back, we'll talk to Michael Goodwin next.
Lots to talk to him about on seven to ten
