Dom Chiodano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. It is Dom time. We have the news of the day, and we have the very big news. Mulligans here at Linda Kearns in studio, carrying over. We couldn't get enough over that first hour. We had to do this. Henry Shilks kind of weakened to me. I'd put the odds in five to one. She has any chance debating me a week from Friday. Kirk, you concur, I can tell in there. She probably folds her pizza, too. Does she? Do you fold your pizza, Linda Kurtz? That's a yes. You're going to spend the next week just ginning up the audience. That's right. Working them over. Exactly, yes. You're probably, you're probably looking at who's coming and asking them first. Make sure you vote for me because if you don't vote for me, I'm not going to lay in Mulligans. That's true. No, I want them to sit right in the front. I want that atmosphere where people are like hanging over us when we're debating. Well, I am ready with this debate topic. It reminds me of... Who was the The Inherit the Wind. That's what it'll be like with the guy ran for president three or four times and then the newspaper. I don't know which one you are. Well, Dom, do you like my debate topic that I picked? Yes, we love the debate topic. First, just one little update, though, news of the day. Then we'll get into the Kearns Award and everything else. Linda, California, and we were just talking in studio with Dawn. And I didn't know this that most of the votes. that are cast laid or don't have a postmark on them? No, but what I said was a lot of mail doesn't have a postmark. Not everything that goes through the mail has a postmark. The postmark is just really to cancel a stamp. It's not necessarily a record. And so we're not even sure that all of these envelopes have postmarks. So we have an election system that's based on... a post office procedure that doesn't even happen on every envelope. Look at the mail at your house. You'll see that not everything is canceled. Now, I've been making a point because the California stuff is so egregious how Peru did it in like 30 seconds and they still haven't finished. That still doesn't mean you shouldn't vote by mail-in ballot if you think there's any chance you're going to be there. I mean, we can't backpedal. No, when I criticize mail balloting or anything about elections, I always start off by saying vote no matter what, still vote. Right. But there are problems with this system. Even the New York Times I mentioned on The Dawn Show came out today with an editorial saying, we have to stop counting ballots after Election Day. We need a federal law that says we're going to stop because it's causing people to really doubt the process. And that's a huge hit to election integrity when people are wondering what's going on. So with the mail, well, you know, what the Democrats are doing on the other side. And you may differ on that. And we sometimes do. That's fine. They had a bill that passed in the House, or they will pass the Democrats. They want the canvassing, meaning starting to count the mail-in ballots in Pennsylvania. They want to start doing it a week before, and I know exactly why they want to do that. Then they'll send it to the media. Oh, Stacey Garrity is being murdered, and we know what that does.

3:07

The press is the vote. Right. Well, they'll say that if you start canvassing, you can't release the results. Much like when they start canvassing on Election Day, they can't release the results. My problem with canvassing before election day is we have to fix a lot of other problems before we allow that. And I'm not convinced we have all the systems in place to prevent somebody from voting by mail and then going to vote on the machine. Now, the fact that they don't start counting them until Election Day, they can check the poll books. And if you did show up to vote by mail, they won't count your mail on ballot. So we need to sure all that up. I mean, we still have counties in Pennsylvania that use paper poll books. We need to really come into the, you know, come into this century and get our systems in place. We've given them more money and we've said, just keep counting, whatever the people you have to put. And I would think for you and the watchers to make sure everything's in the up and up. It's better if it's that one process there to get all your forces, rest up, be ready, and then go in versus having to do this all the time for God knows how many days. Well, here in Pennsylvania, in 24, they were all counted by that night. I mean, you know, exactly. It's doable. So it is absolutely doable. They start on election day and they can get it done. All right. We have the Kearns Award coming up in Rose's response. I want to play you one cut, though. from one lawyer to another here. You are not a lawyer. Dom, do we need an intervention? To be a lawyer, you need to graduate from law school. If I wanted to be, they would make me a lawyer inside 30 seconds. It's not how it works, Tom. It's not how it works, no. You have to pass the bar. You have to take continuing education credits. No, Dom, you're not a lawyer. I practice for 30 years right here. This is not law. You're talking to a microphone and no one's talking back. That's not how it works, Dom. You're delusional. Wow. That's part of being a lawyer. Okay. Here is the cut, Henry. I wanted to play. Here's the mom in the Carmelo Anthony case who we're talking about yesterday. Talk to Linda about this, and this is in Texas. The guy who now is judged to be guilty of murder could be out in 17 and a half years. This is cut six, though. Here's one of the protesters who has five boys, apparently, and she wants to know, what do I tell my boys now since Carmelo Anthony was convicted? What do you want us to do? What do you want us to do at this point? What? I'm lost for it. I don't know what to do. I got five boys. I don't know what. I ain't got nothing to tell him no more. You can't walk away no more. Rest in peace, Trayvon Martin. Let me ask you this. Right now. All right, so it seems to be walk away. He was in the other team's tent. The evidence said that the boy who killed the other boy went to that event with a knife in his backpack. That's what she needs to tell her kids. Don't put a knife in your backpack. That's what I would tell my kids. And for some reason, don't be in the other team's tent or bench for whatever reason you have.

6:07

It's crazy when I first heard that. Everybody knows that. You can't be there. What's the dispute? I mean, look, it was really a lot of events that shouldn't have happened, but the biggest thing was don't have a weapon in your backpack. Exactly. And to resolve a dispute, you don't take a weapon out. That's not what weapons are for. One other thing, Linda, both doing media and as a lawyer, this Schmidt case in South Philly is getting a lot of traction. It's out there nationally. The Penn State student who was killed. It always amazes me, and I can't really tell you the formula, why that case is gone national. Fox has had it on 20 times. Krasner was even asked about that specific case. I'll play later what he said, which was not sufficient. But why one case over another? Yeah, no, I don't know. I often wonder about that because there's tragedies that happen every day. People are losing their family members every day and why one gets all this attention over another. I mean, this one in Texas that had a lot of the elements, you know, someone of one race. Yeah. And the young and just look, whatever happens, you know, that one family lost that their child forever, this other. Kid is going to jail for not really that long of a time. I understand the parents, too. People think, well, he's going to go to jail. His life is going to be ruined by this. Yeah, their son's dead. Yeah, their son is never coming back. 17 and a half years will probably end up. And that's in Texas, alleged tough state. Yeah, and he'll be out in his 30s. I know. Yeah, something wrong with that. I think so. We're off to, we're just talked to Scott Presler today. I think there's a decent shot. He'll be there. He's got a book out. But the main event each year that people look forward to is the great sure debate. Henry, clearly as a nonpartisan observer. He's not nonpartisan. He's totally in your camp. He's probably going to. I think that Linda really had a loss last year. It was a commendable effort, but now she's been in the ring. You know how. You get into the ring and you go, oh, my God, I didn't know it was going to be like this. Henry is right now calling people to make sure that your fans show up and vote for you. That's Kirk Show. That's Kirk Show. That's no such thing. So, but I do think it is a brilliant. I told Roders and she didn't fully get it. So, but I did instantly. I think this is brilliant. This shows your media and your legal background. But you want to defend. The mayor, not closing the beaches. Absolutely. First of all, I've seen that movie at least 50 times. It's my favorite movie of all time. I love that movie. I could watch it again and again and again. That's number one. But yes, I would like to defend the mayor because I heard you guys just saying what everybody says, oh, the mayor got reelected. But I, well, no, I'm not going to give away all my arguments. Now, see, you're trying to trick me. Oh, come on, Linda. How a little bit. A little bit. No, I haven't given any arguments. Suffice to say, yes, I'm going to defend the mayor's actions and jaws that he didn't immediately, he didn't close down the beaches and I am going to win the debate. And some of this will be on legal grounds because emotionally you're already.

9:13

some people are off the ship of Kearns right here already. All right. So that's one thing that we'll be doing. Roe will be, I don't know, hitting you with a legal order. I think Joe of Columbus will serve it on you about she's not going to serve me martinis when I come to the door. Well, how's that going? I got her, I got her the martini glass, the slippers. She rejects, though. She says there are accessories before and after the fact. But, Dom, look, you're. You're not the king of rock and roll, but you're the king of talk radio. Well, thank you. And I think you should be treated as such. And I think that when you get home from work every day, you should be pampered by row. And I don't see what the problem is. I will be wearing the slippers. Henry, you can provide the, Johnny can provide the martini when we have this to be. I didn't encourage that. In fact, I'm in your camp completely. Now, one other thing, you've arrived at such a level. We couldn't give you an award. You deserve to give an award to someone else. So drumroll, Henry, if you have something there, we're going to announce the first ever Linda Kearns Award. It might be a dispute over this. Of course, it's with a lawyer. I'll tell you over the second. All right, so Linda, you get to give the Linda Kearns Award. Lante McCauley is my local person of the year. Henry. Is keeping secretive. He said LeBron James, I said, come on, we can't get LeBron James there. Yeah, some athlete. I know an athlete will be involved. So do I have to announce right now who I picked? Because I haven't talked to the person yet to make sure that they can either be available by phone or be there in person. We'll get them by phone at least, don't you think? I hope so. Okay. Don't want to announce. Well, but I haven't told the person yet. You don't have to. You don't have to. Okay. You don't have to tell a person, do you? Is that written down somewhere? Tell a person they're getting an award? Uh, would they reject the Linda Kearns award? No, I don't think they would. No, I don't think they would. So tell us. Come on. Okay, well, the person that, so wait, what does this Linda Kern's award mean? Is it someone who likes Elvis? Is it someone who understands the difference between a lawyer and someone who acts like a lawyer? All the above. Somebody you think worthy of it this year, like Alante McCauley was our guy. Yeah. Okay. So who I think that the Linda Kerns Award should go to somebody who just really is, understands elections, understands conservative values. Oh, okay. It's not worried about social media and really just gets down to breast tax and understands that a lot of what we do with election integrity is tedious, is knocking on doors. It's not fancy, but that's what works. So I've chosen, I haven't even told them yet, but I've chosen to give the first Linda Kern. Award to Joe Picozzi.

11:50

Oh, Joe Becozy. I thought it was the other colleague that worked on the election. But Joe Becozy, who knocked on 100,000 doors, whatever it was. Absolutely. You've got to put in that round game to win election. 29 or 28, 21 in Northeast Philadelphia. The future of the, I think, you know, the future of the conservative movement, he's still working very, very hard. And I think that he gives me a lot of hope. So that's who I've chosen. But I haven't even told Joe Pocosey yet. Well, that's okay. So we have... I'll call him later today. We have Alante McCauley who gives us hope because he's going against all parties and he does that one minute hate speech he called at City Hall. And Becozy, that's a brilliant... I hope he'll come, but at least on the phone. Right. That is great. Now... The dispute, Henry, after all this honor of having instituting the Kearns Awards, you want to know about the design of this. Yeah, I'm working. Come on. I have no budget with Greg Stocker here. I understand that there's my own budget. But I'm working on what the award looks like because. Oh, okay. You know, I want to really think about that. Yeah, you can't give out an ugly-looking award. Well, it wasn't ugly. You saw the awards this year. No, I have my Dom Trude on an award hanging in my office. I'm not saying they're ugly. I'm just saying if your name's on the award, you wouldn't want to give out an ugly award. You got to think about the design. I know, but I have the trophy company on hold here, you know, for, they're under my command for a few more days to give us a good price. And I'm also thinking, Dom, of upping the ante of, um, putting my money where my mouth is, so to speak, and that when I give out the Linda Kearns Award, I'm also going to give a donation to the Public Interest Legal Foundation in that person's honor. The Public Interest Legal Foundation is a 501C3 foundation that's basically a law firm dedicated to election integrity. I am their local Pennsylvania Council, and we just filed an appeal yesterday, or I filed it on Monday, today's Wednesday, in... Lackwana County because a common pleas judge removed a judge of election from office with no hearing, no due process. Yes, I'm glad you're here. We haven't updated that story. Moscow. Yeah, that's the name of the town. That was the name of the town. And, you know, I would expect something like that to happen. No due process in Moscow, Russia, not in Moscow, Pennsylvania. The guy's a bit of a gadfly. I know that. You know, that got oustered from there. No, no. Not necessarily. I've been really researching it. I don't see a reason. It was a woman. I don't see why she was. Oh, I don't see a reason, but I'm saying I know they've been involved with stuff, you know, involved with it. They're devoted. They're a citizen. And you can't do that. They're going to snatch you up to Moscow. I know. I mean, and there was no hearing. That's the problem. No hearing whatsoever. She didn't even know about it until the police showed up in the polling place at 3 o'clock. And if we give the judges of the court in common pleas that kind of power, imagine what's going to happen in elections. Oh, you'll be in. I'll come here to the studio and try to take me out of here on election day. But I do think.

14:50

This is 2026, and obviously we have every year is an important election, but I think all eyes are going to be on Pennsylvania in 28, and we have to sort these problems out. Well, that is excellent stuff. So we'll wait to get your design. I'm going to be calling the guys tomorrow for our part of it, but we'll see we'll work your design into it. Okay. Henry, does this get more complicated? Remember, that's part of your duties. Designing trophies for... I'm glad I'm part of that. All right. What would I design Linda's trophy as? Oh, yes, I know what it's going to be on. I know it's going to be. Well, no. Something was sequins made? Yeah, Sequins. Joe Becozy comes as an Elvis imitator, yes. No, well, we can't. I mean, that's all copyrighted, so we don't want to run a foul of the Elvis estate, so we can't put it in. I didn't say the name you did. Sequins and bell bombs. That could be anybody. And Bluess Wade shoes. All right. So, Linda, thank you again. You'll let us know on that. And we'll be doing a debate. And I can't wait. And I'm a little disappointed that Roe is fighting, you know, the fact that I think that you should be treated like a king. That's a debate. No Kings is this week again. Roe's part of the No Kings movement here. Well, I think we, I think America does have a king. We have the king of rock and wall and we have the king of talk radio, Dom Diovado. So that's my exception to the new king's movement. Thank you very much. All right. Linda, thank you again. It's just tremendous the work you do. You and Presler, the Secretary of Offense and Defense, doesn't get any better. So keep it up. Thank you. I'll wait to get the design. And Joe Bikosey. You better accept, buddy. I know. I'll call him this afternoon and let me know. All right. All right. More coming up here. I'll give you the side question coming up. Got some great guests. We have a rabbi, and I just have so many rabbis on. I forgot which one this guy's going to talk. Oh, it's the 12th congressional district rabbi. Not our buddy out there in the suburbs. Lower Mcfield, rabbi. 855, 839, 1210. I'm Giordano. On Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, Tom G. Erdanos show. Got a great side question today. You got to be at Mulligans. It's, you know, I don't know. Take the doors off, Johnny. Use the back doors. All entrances will be needed. June 19th. We're still talking to Scott Presler. His book is out. Good shot that he'll be there signing books. And Colonel Scott Rutter, Linda, cast of thousands. Joe Conklin was in the hallways here yesterday, telling us the biddy's working up around President Trump. So. Got to be there. Make plans. You have plenty of time. You have over a week to do it. All right. We touched upon the Carmela Anthony case. It is just stunning. And I think that woman summarizes it. Here's a cut, though, of Larry Krasner. And I wouldn't have even seen this. Our buddy, Chris Tramagli, has a column at the Washington Examiner asking. Where's the energy when we have a killing like this Penn State student in a roughly safe area in South Philly, you know, just over a phone, just mercilessly killed right there in the street? Where's Krasner on that versus how juiced up he gets when it's ice, when he's going after ice, when he's telling ice what he's going to do to that? Here's Krasner and he starts off okay. This is a cut with CPS3.

18:11

He starts all, you know, going forward about the killing of this Penn State student. And then he just goes into some kind of babble here telling me, you know, this is not something that keeps them awake at night. Cut 15. Prosecutors tell CBS News Philadelphia it will be valuable in trying to identify those responsible, while detectives continue looking for more evidence. But they are working diligently and have been back out onto the scene during daylight hours to survey and see if they could recover anything else at this time. And while District Attorney Larry Krasner earlier Monday was talking an increase in his office's budget to make Philadelphia safer, we asked him about the tragic circumstances of what happened to Billy Schmid. It resonates with me too. Crime is going to continue in human existence. The real question is how do you manage it? Are you managing crime, reducing it, reducing victimizations? So is that the response I want to hear in this? Did I hear a motion in that in the manner that I hear Krasner about Trump, about ICE? About any political opponent, no. He's not feeling it then. And listen, I know as a professional, if you're a doctor, nurse, a cop, a DA, and you see these things, you can't break down all the time. And this is just one case. But again, let's see when we catch these two what their criminal record is in Larry Krasner. All right, here is a little Brendan Boyle from northeast Philadelphia, the congressman. This guy gets elected 85, 90% of the vote in Northeast Philadelphia. He's a power in Washington. Listen to what he said this morning. His job one, if the Democrats or I don't know if he says when, they take over the House again. What are they going to do? Here's Boyle. The first thing we would do is reopen that first reconciliation bill that the Republicans passed last summer, which included over $5 billion, or excuse me, $5 trillion worth of tax breaks, mostly for billionaires. Mostly for billionaires, buddy. You want to come on a show and debate that? You want to talk about the no tax on tips, the Social Security break, the other breaks that hardworking people have to get out of the tyranny of little tyrants like you in Northeast Philadelphia. I want to talk about the, where are you in school choice, Mr. Boyle, the ability to give some kids to get out of the Philadelphia public schools and places like that. But the no tax on tips. Yeah, yeah, yeah, they just put that in there. They really want to give their billionaires friends those tax breaks. How about the overtime break? Yeah, yeah, and that's billionaires. It's all billionaire stuff. And this is Northeast Philadelphia. All right, 855, 839, 12, 10. Side question today. We've been meaning to get to it, but.

21:18

caught up in zigging and zagging on it. Yesterday's was unbelievable. The summer song was too much. It was really. Today's side, coming off Scott Pelle, and we have Joe Concho on the marr. One of the things we'll talk about is Scott Pelley, the all-time pompous individual. Now, a pompous individual to be really pompous, some of it's the style. You know, we played Pellie the other day. And I started talking and Henry told me he's not done yet. The pause was like eight seconds, you know, between one sentence and an hour, you know, sitting back in the chair, the pontificating, the movements are on the face and everything else. I've interviewed him in person. Yeah, it was just like that. So we're looking for the most pompous you can find real or fictional. There's a lot of good fictional characters. I'll take off the board, even though he is the opposite of pompous in real life. Fraser Crane was a great pompous figure, not a malevolent one, you know, but pompous beyond belief in both shows that he did. That was the whole bit. He captured it beautifully. Now, many times, though, it's not just the speaking style and being nerdish or whatever. It's also the self-importance, you know, seeing yourself in that manner. is what really, really gets the pomposity going, the grandiosity of it. All right, Henry, how about yours? Yeah, you know, I think part of being pompous is there's an air that you think you're better than everybody. Yes. And someone who I think thinks they're better than everybody, even probably still today, is a famed actress Faye Dunaway. Pay Dunaway? Yeah. Wow, I like Fade Dunaway. There have been times where she's gotten on a plane, didn't like her seat, goes up to the flight attendants and goes, why am I not upgraded? Do you know who I am? Wow. Well, there's one of the trademarks, do you know who I am? Yeah. Oh, man, when you hear that. That's what I'm saying. So I feel like if you're doing that on a lot of flights where you feel like you should be upgraded, you throw the don't you know who I am card out, I think that sounds pretty pompous or say you're at a photo shoot like she was and she says, everybody out of my eye line. That's a bit of pomposity. I mean, people just try to do their job, get the best shot of you, and what? No one can look at you now? No one can be in the same sightlines. Other people are told you're not allowed to look at them. Hillary was, I think, one. But the woman who ran in California put the mashed potatoes in the head of the husband. She went nuts. Get out of my shot. Blank, blank and blank. Wow, Faye Dunaway. Yeah. And then the other one that take off is... NBA small four, Dylan Brooks. If you call yourself the LeBron Stopper.

24:11

and then proceed to let LeBron James beat you in six games while averaging 22 points, 11 rebounds, and five assists. You're not the LeBron stopper anymore. You can't call the guy old. You can't be the guy who says, I poke bears. Go and poke the bear and then have him absolutely destroy you. And then, I mean, this has been three years now. And three years later, you're still the LeBron stopper. This time, you're sitting courtside at the Lakers game. in a game you're not playing in just to see LeBron loose. That's the closest you're going to get to beating him. That's very pompous of you. Dylan Brooks, Pompas, yeah. Hey, Donaway and Dillian Brooks. Wow. Would you like to have that on Fandour. You'd make a billion out of that. Nice parlay there. Nice. Kirk, how about yours? I'm going to go to real and fictional. Real. Poppins is they come, so-called journalist Don Lemon. Oh, that's a perfect one. He has a tool. Fictional, I'm going to go with Thurston Howl from Gilligan's Island. That's a good one, too. Yes. That's kind of the Frazier Crane. By the way, you put up on Twitter, you say Phil Murphy was folding the pizza. It's a screen grab because it does like, for Jersey has like different ads campaigns for the state. And one of them, I can't remember exactly what it was about, but it was a screenshot and he folded his pizza. I rest my case. Yep, thank you. Phil Murphy's doing it. There you go. Yep. You know, Harry Hurley is very tight with Phil Murphy. If he's at the Jersey, sure, imagine Phil Murphy's showing up. No, we might not want to do it. Oh, boy. All right. If you fold your pizza, you're in the minority. As far as we can tell, even in this across the country, you're in a real minority. All right, it's 855, 839, 12, 10. It's AT&T and Verizon Wireless. All you have to do is just push pound 1210. Get in early. Get in often. And we'll get a winner today and put your name into the hat. So in a little bit, we are going to talk with Mike Testa, Mr. Oyster Farm, the state senator, who we had last year with me eating all those oysters. How hard of a job is that to farm oysters versus Grand Platinum? We got a lot of platinum sound from last night. That's amazing. 855-839-1210. Tom Chiodato on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, it is Dom Time. Last year at Mulligans, one of the most difficult experiences due to the great Senator Mike Tester from the Jersey Shore, talking about the oyster industry in Jersey in this dispute. I think it, Henry, it was the dispute they had with Delaware about capturing some islands or something. It was a land dispute. Yeah, it was a land dispute. Yeah, so I sort of had a raw oyster. And I'm thinking about all that as Graham Platner now is putting himself out as a working class hero. He did a little bit of research. He only supplies oysters to his mother's restaurant. She charges $22 for six of his delicacies. I don't know oysters. I have to go to Senator Mike Testa here on Talk Radio 1210. Mike Testa, welcome back. Thanks for joining us, Senator.

27:32

It's great to be with you again, and I'm glad I was there to witness you attempting to eat your first raw oyster in your life. So you were so compelling on the oyster industry, and has it at dispute been settled with Delaware yet? It has not. And look, you know, a lot of that was done to highlight the oyster industry we have in South Jersey, in our Bayshore community, both the wild harvest oyster industry and the aquaculture or oyster farming industry, which, you know, people don't realize the triploid oyster. I told you this last year on, you know, the time we got to spend in person in the city of Wildwood, that the triploid oyster was developed by... a scientist at Rutgers University in Cumberland County at the Haskins Lab. And it was actually the oyster genome project, which developed the triploid oyster, which might last $5 billion a year industry worldwide. So it's really impressive. Absolutely. And one of the things we've talked about a little bit, and you know better than anybody, how hard it is to farm those oysters. I mean, this is brutal work, very difficult. Apparently, Senator Graham Platner, nominee Graham Platner, has like a barrier island and is really under fire now. If you can imagine, Mike, his whole industry they're billing this guy as is the next big thing is only $50,000. That's just what it's capitalized, including his boat, et cetera. And he only supplies oysters to his mother. And apparently he has sort of a... a space there where the oysters are just there and he sort of collects them. I think this, from what I know, harvesting anything from the sea is usually a really grinding job. Absolutely. I mean, you know, the farming industry, and there's obviously subject to our weather, if the temperatures get too cold, if we have storms, you know, that is a really difficult industry to determine what you're going to yield. each and every year. Obviously, there's also, God forbid, we haven't had it in a number of years, but it still lingers out there. There's potential bacteria and or diseases that can affect the oyster industry. But luckily here in South Jersey, the oyster industry is thriving. But you said something that they're trying to make. this nominee, the next big thing. And they absolutely are. Look how they created Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, right? She was really created. And then they made her extremely wealthy by giving her a Netflix deal worth $10 million to sign on to tell her story. Oh, and it just so happened that former President Obama and his wife were on the board of Netflix at the time to be able to give her that lucrative fact so she could live in a very posh place. in Washington, D.C. while she represents a very poor district in New York. Senator Mike tested with us, and when will we get the Mikie Sherrill's story? The developments in the last couple of days where Cheryl upping the ante here tremendously for people that are here legally to defend them and political sense, cutting the meals on wheels for seniors, among other things, that's the one that jumped out at me.

30:53

Well, there are a number not-for-profits that are far more worthy than providing an additional $20 million. For civil proceedings, by the way, because removal proceedings are civil proceedings. And nowhere in our United States Constitution or New Jersey Constitution does it state that you should be provided with a taxpayer-funded lawyer for a civil proceeding, such as removal proceedings, by the way. So in South Jersey, we have... Samaritan Healthcare, which is a palliative health care provider in South Jersey, they got zeroed out in the budget. NJ. Cares, which is an organization that provides counseling to sexually abused children, their funding was cut in South Jersey. CASA, court-appointed special advocates, their funding was cut, but somehow... Governor Cheryl and her administration is able to find $20 million to fund civil proceedings to fund... lawyers to defend illegal immigrants and civil proceedings in the removal process. It's a slap in the face to all of those not-for-profits and those schools like Dennis Township and Kate May County that have had their funding cut severely over the last number of years. You know, I don't know how you feel at this point. Phil Murphy was a horror, Mike, but... I don't know if he lacked energy the last four years or whatever. This woman has national aspirations. They're apparently real and is on top. She's on all fronts. So arguably, this is just as bad, if not worse, the previous eight years. Well, look, you know, at first I thought she started out really strong, to be quite honest with you. And all of her cabinet members were being extremely... cooperative, were being extremely communicative and transparent, maybe even giving us information that we weren't necessarily happy with, but they were communicating in a great manner. But now it seems like she's taken a very hard left. on this Delaney Hall issue, and you take a long, hard look at what happened at Delaney Hall. She's the one who brought in the state police, and then she was vilified by the radical leftists of her own party, so then she decided to placate them. She's the one who indicates so many of these rioters. By the way, I want to be very clear about that. Everyone has a First Amendment right to assemble and to peacefully protest.

33:27

even if it's about a subject matter we don't necessarily agree with. But these folks are not peaceful protesters. They are going well beyond the First Amendment protections. They are destroying property. They are lighting things on fire. They are inciting a riot. They are biting and kicking law enforcement officers at the local, state, and federal level. Governor Cheryl is the one in the state police squash this situation. And they did a great job at doing that. But what has happened? The radical left spoke up. You see Mayor Ross Baraka indicate that, hey, we're going to pull back police officers from the Newark Police Department. This is a federal issue. It is not a federal issue if it's happening on the streets of Newark, by the way. That is not a federal issue whatsoever. So that's a completely false narrative. And now you have Governor Cheryl trying to placate the radical left of her party saying, hey, look, I'm not going to provide the state police there. This is a federal issue. This is a very dangerous issue that I believe. The Cheryl administration has thrown gasoline on this fire, and I pray to God that we don't have a repeat of the summer of love like we saw six years ago. Absolutely. Senator Mike Tester with us. Senator, what's the next big thing over the next few months that you're involved in that we should know about? Well, look, the next big thing is the state budget, right? We have a $60.7 billion proposed budget that we have to have done by July 1st. I sit on the Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee. Our, you know, officer is Senator Declan O'Scanlon. I'm the ranking member. He and I are working diligently along with the other members of the Budget Committee on the Republican side, Senator Doug Stein, Hunter Carmen Amato. We're working diligently going through this budget, trying to show the public how much waste is in this budget, especially as so many of our nonprofits that are really worthy have suffered severe cuts and our school funding formula, which we've been saying has been broken for. the seven years that I've been in the legislature and how many schools are getting the short end of the stick on funding issues, while it seems like political favorites have been shown certainly during the Murphy administration, and I hope there isn't a repeat during the Sherrill administration. Senator, thank you, as always. Thank you very much for all the great work that you do.

35:54

Thank you so much for having me. All right, Senator Mike Test on the oyster thing here. We have a lot of Graham Platner stuff to play. And the words redemption was used again and again again. And I bet almost everybody listening believes in redemption. I'll give you examples of people I think that are redeemed. Is Graham Platner redeemed? What's the evidence of this? They're rolling that out. Ro Khanna, they're giving them a chance of redemption. That's what this is about. Kind of saying, well, don't you Christians believe in redemption? Why wouldn't you support this guy? Yeah, where's the atonement there, Graham? Doesn't seem to be too much of it that I see. All right, let's go to Susan in Chester Springs. Now, Susan, Chester Springs was cited by Guy Sharaki the other day as a capital of affluence. Is that true? I'll put Susan on hold. I don't know what happened. She's all being affluence. Yeah, she's, her butler must have gotten the phone. Okay. We are looking, oh, let's go to Joe of Columbus. We are looking on the side today for somebody who is pompous, and we give you all the qualities of it. Joe and Columbus. Say, Joe. Good morning, Dom and crew. How are you guys doing today? Good, good, Joe. Good morning. Good morning. Dom, this Graham Platner, he's proven he can't even handle an income of $3,000 a year. How is he going to handle a budget, you know, a national budget? The guy is your typical basement dweller. Yeah, he is. And Joe, you know, I don't see, I looked at the menu very closely, his mother's restaurant. I'm not seeing a lot of oysters being sold there. You get six for $22. You know, we're going to place a call and find out if they can ship us some so we can sample him. He's not even a journeyman oyster farmer. No. You know, yeah. He dabbles in it because his mom loves him. My side answer, Dom, is, and the guy rots my gut every time, but you can't break his spirit, no matter how much he screws up. And his company name is indicative of that, Dunder Mifflin, and it's Michael Scott from the office. That is a very good one, pompous, but not in pompous in the sense of malevolent or anything, but, you know, the results are disastrous, yeah, beautifully done. 855-8-3-9-12-10. That's what we're looking for today. Somebody real or fictional, like Bay-Dunaway. Oh, my God. I didn't know that. That was a swing and hits the ball ball ball ball ball ball. Yeah, I can't watch network or three days of the Condor or anything else. I got to think, Bonnie and Clyde. Yeah, that she showed at a body and Clyde. You're in the same room as there. How dare you. I'll be shot first. Not you. 8-55-8-3-9-12-10. You get to that. This Graham Platner stuff, redemption, though. How do we make a judgment? We're allowed to make a judgment if a person is redeemed. Doesn't involve suffering of some sort or atonement of some sort and a period of time. I interviewed Michael Vick and based upon some of his public stuff that he had done, say, in the last few years, and when I interviewed him,

39:18

I saw a redeemed guy and think about what he did and think about how we felt about that. It takes a lot to come back from that. Not easy. You know, maybe he would always be looking with a wary eye. This guy's not making anything about being redeemed on this stuff. He either denies it or he seems to be, it's not even stolen vower. He seems to be putting PTSD. And that's where they're going to say, well, we have PTSD. What do you expect him to do? He was in the military. Ro Khanna, he's redeemed. Don't you guys believe in redemption? Elect him. 855, 839, 1210. Let's talk about Dr. Benz for a moment, though. Well, for years, dental visits for me were routine. just cleanings twice a year, until suddenly you started getting into more heavy duty. It's wearing tear. It's all kinds of things that happened.

And that would be Dr. Benz. My friends at the Bent's Dental Group where I've been going for 12 years, board certified prostodontas. You have Dr. Robert Bence. That's one.

Tom Gierdano on Talk Radio 1210, W-P-H-H-T-E. All right, Dom, John Girodano show, reading this big piece and Guy Sharaki's on it. I don't know you're going to write over here. He's probably written three columns on it. Philadelphia inquires the story how it's impossible to fail a student. They get their report cards tomorrow in the Philadelphia public schools. It's not worth it what you have to go through, teachers say. And also, are you ready for this? A D, once a 64, which is preposterous, is now a 60 maybe, extenuating circuit. And you can't give a score on a test no matter what. If they crumpled up and throw it at your head, 50 is the maximum score you have to get. No matter what, the kid goes, blank you. Gross. That's a 50. 60 is a minimum score. When you start out at 60 is a minimum score as a D. That's all you need. And if you're anywhere within 10 points of that, they seem to be it. Even if you're not, even if you don't show up, they're going to pass you. They are more fraudulent than any institution I can think of in Philadelphia. They're more fraudulent than Philadelphia City Council. Or it's a tie, maybe. Can you imagine? Yeah, and do these people know any better? Parents and others, and they go, yeah, 60, that sounds about right.

42:49

I need a former nun or a current nun out there to say the 11th commandment, 70 is passing. And maybe not. I had a kid to Henry tell me, well, you better look at what you put down is it great again. I had a low B at a 78. Hey, buddy, you're not getting a B from me. You can be tying me. You can be jabbing me with ice picks. I'm not writing a B down with that. Yeah, I have to at least make the effort, be like, look, if you round up, I mean, I'm pretty much there. Who hasn't done that for? Yes, a 78 is a big- Trying to get into college. Yeah, that's right. Yeah, let me hear the sob stories next. It's funny, because I did see like a syllabus for like some sort of college course, and the grading on it was crazy. It made me think of you. It was like an A was 99 and up. B was... 97 to 98. That's a little bit. C was 70 to whatever, like 75 to 96, and then D was just 70 to 74. I had a grading system based upon points in which it was almost impossible to get a D. You were either going to be a B or an A or you were going to fail. That's what it came down to. Because it was based on work. If you work, you're going to probably get a B. You're good. If you don't, you're not going to get a D. I'm not giving a D out the matter what. Okay, well, we'll change the grade. Well, you may change it. I had a student, Henry, at the community college who refused to take the test in a completely quiet classroom saying they needed a soundproof booth, which they had there. So I said, no, I'm not doing that. They gave them the test and they asked me to sign it. No, I'm not signing it. Then they come back with the grade, I'm still not signing that. So I don't know. Somewhere in the system at. Imagine a soundproof booth. No, we're not doing that. It's quiet in the question. Like a request you'd get today. Like I can't take a test around all these people. I need my own private booth. There you go. And they have one there at community college. I went down there and I examined a soundproof booth. What is it? A $64 million question. All right. So can you imagine this expose? Does anything stop them, though, from collecting the money? No. It's all fraudulent. Their only job is to prevent school choice. That's what their job is. Stacey Garrity, it's your office calling. Grab on to this story. These teachers say impossible to fail, even if you fail them. Administratively, they're going to pass, even if they don't show up. And the passing grade is only 60. And you know, if you just show up and are kind of polite, you're going to get a C or B. Basically is what they're saying. It used to be 64. They said lower it to 60. It's like gas prices. Do they have the nerve to go into the 50s? Can you see them sitting over there? Can we go to 59? No, they'll be mocking us. You're a mock at 60. And that's why they hate the statewide test because there they can't. Well, sometimes they've been caught cheating. That's happened in Philadelphia, big time scandals. But there you see what the proficiency is. And the proficiency is just saying barely getting by. Harrisburg's only 11% of students are proficient in math. Only 11%. And that's just proficient, not good. So how do they get along with this? Again, Republicans got to do a better job on school choice. This is right there an article for it. I can see Guy Sharaki in his lab there working up columns around the world on this. 60 is the passing grade.

46:25

All right, big one o'clock hours straight ahead. We have a great progressive woman gone wild today. It's whoopey. Kind of scattered more than anything. You heard Linda Kearns, if you're not coming to Mulligans, come on now. You got the Jersey Shore. You got all kinds of great stuff going on. We haven't announced the Machete Award. Henry's thinking who he wants to give that to. I'm in a debate with Linda Kearns over the design of an award. I can see if I take it to my guy over there at the trophy shop. I was going to call him and say last year, people loved it. Here's all you have to change this year. Let's go. I think she's just trying to take your eye off the ball. Yeah, right. I'm ready for the debate. She's seen jaws over 50 times. I mean, you're going to have to look at the film here. I've seen it 28. I was thinking of my camp. And she played a fifth on the pizza folding. Yeah, that's right. She's a pizza folder possible. Yeah. The pizza fault. Somebody will demonstrate the pizza fault for us at Mulligans, I'm sure. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, we'll be asking for that. Roe frowns on that almost as much as the sauce people. Really? Just said you're making it up. Is that one of the things they make up and talk radio? No. I said no. They've been all of their pizza folds. It was when I left yesterday, it was blown up on social media. And have you seen Alante McCauley on social media going to town for this event? It's like the Academy Awards. He was blown up too. Oh, yeah, yeah. 8 by 5, 839, 1210, grab a lot. Tom Giudano, weekdays, noon till 3, from Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. Tom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, welcome in, everyone. I'll have more on this Philadelphia grading thing that you will not believe, but first, he is an attorney. and also a rabbi. Benjamin Netanyahu Kelson is our guest, and he wrote this piece in great detail. My God, looking at how many printed pages here? 13. The real issue in New Jersey 12, which President Trump just addressed at a press gaggle this morning, is not the rabbi attorney says. is not criticism of Israel, it's the repackaging of anti-Semitism. That's what we're seeing play out of here. Sometimes, Blayton, like, we don't care. We're going to do it. I mean, we don't care that it is anti-Semitism. We want to win. Or what they think is a clever repackaging of what's going on here. So with Graham Platner, we have a guy with a Nazi tattoo. But his proponents say he's been telling us about Israel being genocidal. The irony is lost on everyone, I guess. Let's go to Rabbi Kelson here on talk radio 1210. Rabbi, welcome to Philadelphia. Thanks for joining us. Where are you headquartered? Thank you. So I'm actually up in Bergen County, New Jersey, raised in Teaneck. I still live in the area, and I work in the area, work in New York City as well, Manhattan. So are you a Nick fan, Rabbi, before I go for just kidding. So I will tell you that my family is originally from Philadelphia. I was actually born in Philly, and my family are 76ers fans.

49:52

My grandfather was friends with the owner of the Sixers way back when and used to take me to go see Dr. Jay play. And one of my best memories was getting to see Dr. Jay play against Larry Bird. So, you know, we follow the Knicks up here only because my nephews and my siblings follow, you know, local basketball. My brother-in-law has season tickets and is a big fan. These days, honestly, I don't have a lot of time to follow sports, but, you know. As much as anybody is. You're good. The Sixers, I'm a big Sixers guy too, and you were there with Dr. Jay, so that's good stuff. So, Rabbi, I haven't even seen the defense fully yet of this guy. It's like they don't even care or the smarter Democrats might even be a bit embarrassed. As I understand it from the people we've had on, he got $2 million from this pro-Palestinian pact, among other things. And there were a lot of people in this congressional race. And when that happens and you have the money, you might be able to slip through. Do you see something else here in the advertising? How did they slip this guy through? So I think most of it is really, first of all, thank you very much for having me. You're welcome. I think that the bigger problem is, and I wrote this in the title, is that what we've been seeing a lot of is a... is an attempt to repackage what, you know, traditional anti-Semitism, but we're repacking it, we're repackaging it as the, as criticism of Israel. And I think that especially over the last, you know, two and a half years, especially since October 7th, We've seen a lot of difficult and horrific things happening. And there was a lot of, there's a lot of hurt and pain to go around on both sides. There is definitely a lot of propaganda coming out from Hamas of what was happening in Gaza. And I think that a lot of good people who don't know any better, and we're watching this. you know, and we're seeing these images and hearing various terms being bandied about, became very concerned. And when they, when that criticism of Israel of what, which is perfectly reasonable, I mean, people can disagree on, on topics and have reasonable discussions about is something, you know, is something too much? Is it not, you know, how should people be, how should Israel be defending itself, et cetera? But when it begins to go past that, people get carried up in it. Yeah. So, Rabbi, I would put it in what you seem to be saying there. It's one thing to differ with the tactics here in the horror of seeing some of those people caught up in this. But to say this is genocide, meaning this is intentionality. This is what it's all about. Well, then that is anti-Semitic to me right there. That's where we are. Correct. I would agree with that statement, 100%. Yes.

53:08

Rabbi, is it not curious to you, too? I've been saying this for quite a while, post-October 7th. In other words, when we look at things and people evaluate after the suffering, after what was done there, you would think in a gray area. You know, life is full of gray areas at times. You would have to give the benefit of the doubt to somebody protecting themselves after October 7th. Instead, Somehow or another, the arrows move the other way, even post October 7th. So I would have thought, like, as you were saying, I would have thought that. But as we've seen, a lot of the propaganda that has come out has shown the devastation that happened in Gaza. It has shown numbers of... dead that was released by Hamas, and that has something that has to be noted. Hamas kept putting out these numbers that, you know, not really, not really 100% clear what the, you know, how accurate those numbers are, meaning how many of the people within that, within whatever numbers they're releasing are Hamas fighters and how many are not. and things like that. And listen, we all feel bad. We all feel a gut reaction if we see neighborhoods destroyed and we see children, you know, hurt and whatever. And we hear about children starving. Well, who caused the starving? Who caused the starvation? So, you know, if we're, and if we hear enough times that it's the big bad occupier. And we don't understand who's, you know, what that means, but we start believing this propaganda. And we have students on campuses that are being caught, um, not even accurate history. And just really, I mean, really, I keep using the word propaganda. And as an attorney and as a rabbi, I try to look for different words, but I don't really have different words for it. Um, they, they, that's what it is. And so we begin to believe. some of these things, which is unfortunate. And especially with the word genocide, which is a legal term, that becomes a problem. With this congressional race in the 12th, too, this guy, and I'm friends with Andy McCarthy, who was one of the chief attorneys prosecuting the blind cheek in 1993. They were killing Americans. So this guy was the pal, the road guy with the Sheik and testified for him in a defense manner that was ineffectual because he admitted the Detroit trip, I believe it was, was jihad all the time. That's what it was about, nothing else. So how does that morph in? that is so overwhelming to accept somebody, I guess, who's going to go against Israel. We forget the 1993. These were American citizens. Several were killed.

56:07

So I think the other thing that's important, and I think you've raised this issue, is that this was a very, very wide race. There were 13 people running. And this guy won by 27%. And that means that the vast, vast majority of people in the 12th district did not vote for him and did not want him in that position. Why those 27% did, you know, that's a different question that we have to go into. Why, how is it that? 30 years later, 35 years later, people have forgotten what happened. That I wish I could answer the question for you. That's that is something that I, that's what I was writing about. I really don't understand how they could forget about that. I don't understand how they were able, how he was able to pass off exactly what you just said. In addition to his work for the nonprofit organization, which turns out to have been a front for Al Qaeda, and his volunteer work in Gaza, which is a doctor, if you're going to go and help people, that's great. But to be working in a hospital in which it later turns out. you know, the head of Hamas is hiding in the, hiding underneath the hospital and tunnels, and you knew nothing about it. I don't understand how people just let that go. So I'm with you on that. Yeah, well, we have the 25th anniversary of 9-11 coming up, and I don't see any big stare or recognition of that. And part of me says, 25 years out, and this is even farther out, of course. That's one of the reasons. Rabbi, this is a great piece, though. It's nuanced. It's fair. but it is direct to the point about what we're facing. So I do hope, where do we find you? Where do you write? Where do we find you on Twitter? So I'm on Twitter at BG Kelson, and I'm on substack and, you know, various a little bit here and there. And I'm starting to get out there a little bit more. in the last few weeks, last few months. Well, we hope we see you again in your native city, Rabbi Benjamin Netanyahu Kelson. Thanks for joining us today. Thank you, my pleasure. Thank you, Rabbi very much for having me. Thank you for having me. Rabbi Benjamin Netanyahu Kelson here on Talk Radio 1210. All right, so I told you this front, well, prominent. I give the inquire credit for this. The kids are passing. Henry, listen to the M.O. of this one, can I want to read it precisely. And they did good work. I know the woman, Graham, who covers Philadelphia public schools, and I think she does a good job for the inquire. A teacher says how this kid's grade shot up with no explanation during the end of the year. The student had a 50 yesterday. How did he get an 82 the next day? This student didn't turn in any additional work and missed 63 out of 84 classes. Well, you know, he was there for 21 classes. Yeah. Yeah, it sounds like almost like a baseball role. It's like, yeah, he's there for one and four. He qualifies for the batting title. Yeah. It's just stunning to me to see this play out. And again, why do they hate the statewide test and all that's the proficiency? Because they have more trouble hiding that.

59:23

than what they're doing day to day. So whatever you suspect of Philadelphia public schools, it's more than true. And this is the inquire undercovering. So why would they get $300 million more to do what with that? All right. I'm fascinated by the drone ships that were sent to rescue the helicopter pilots, of course. I guess that's a good thing. You don't put more lives at risk, but... They're really able to control, send in the drone ships. I don't even know how big they are. It's a little hard to tell from the pictures I've seen. President Trump, U.S. to attack Iran hard today. Now, here we go again. Also, we have the inflation numbers, and let's get E.J. on tomorrow, have a better sense of them. And they don't look good for May. They're up over April. But year over year is where the biggest they're up. And what's causing this is principally what's going on with Iran. And we don't seem to see any path out of this. And I'm still on board with what the essential mission is they cannot get a nuclear weapon. But you see how insidious they are. Will they care, President Trump talking about? We're going to hit them harder today. It seems to be not just military targets. Maybe there's going to be. Some of the power plant stuff, we're not exactly sure. The bottom line is, is that going to make them agree to things that I don't trust they're going to follow in the end? It is a real dilemma, particularly as the midterms come along here. 855, 833, 9, 12, 10. We'll get to your calls, too. Hit us with that all-time pompous figure. And if you have a comment on this great story, even for the Philadelphia public schools. So what's the remedy for a lot of people? They get out of these schools. They have school choice. We're winning on it, but they're fighting a death battle on it. And I, you know, I'm not inside the Stacey Garrity campaign. I don't know why they don't put more of an emphasis on it. I think they're doing the right thing with the listening tour. Maybe they need a listening tour on this. I go with the trans issue also with Josh Shapiro. But do people in Philadelphia even care? Apparently, they don't. What does it matter if anybody learns in the Philadelphia public? Let's face it, let's be cynically facing the world, though. It doesn't in the end. All they want is more money, and that money is not necessarily going to teachers per se. It's the administrative stuff. It's all the insiders. It's all the infrastructure money. So they don't have air condition schools. 60's a passing grade. A kid has a 51 day, and the next day he's walking around. I have an 82 in this class. And he missed 21 out of the 84. No, he was there, 21 out of 84. Bad in 250. Yeah. Yeah. Can you imagine these teachers? Yeah, put them down for a D. You can see the D, D, D, D, D, D, D. This kid, get me an Apple B. I have to look up. What is a B? Because 60 is a D. So I guess 70 must be a C. Come on. Tell me now, Philadelphia Public Schools. You're not really telling the world that 70 is a C. This is what we have to fight them on. Bring in the nuns. Bring in the nuns. Bring in squadrons of nuns. Let's have a debate.

1:03:04

Why should 60 be a passing grade? How about Philadelphia public schools? You work harder at dumbing it down, but you don't put on the books that I can see it right away what you're doing, that 60's a passing grade. How about going into the 50s? Can you see the teacher? All right, let's make it 50. How low can they go? How low can you go? Yeah, 51. It's like you still got more than half right. They can't even say, well, he showed up. He passes. This kid was only there 21 times. Imagine it 21 times he's there what he's doing. I have an 82 today. I'll see you at graduation. My God. All right. The rabbi, great writing, great column on this. We'll have him back. 855, 839, 12, 10. You get on board. Jump in. Hit us with that all-time pompous figure. Tom Giardano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, it is Dom time, 855, 839, 12. 10, by the way, Joe Concho on the show tomorrow. I just saw him on Fox. The House today, I don't know, it was testimony was televised, but Republicans really should be zoning in on this, and Concha was all over it. The cost, particularly for the NFL, of streaming services, if you're going to get the games. You know, and you have something, well, why make such a big deal? Because they get every break in the world, they get through every loophole to continue to make billions and billions of dollars that could be brought into question by some violations of all kinds of things. And yet, they want to put us through these hoops of having to go there, go to Netflix, and have this, that, or in the other peacock, whatever, in order to see football. It's something that I think the average person would appreciate, just like the prices. I haven't looked at him today for tonight's Knicks game on the secondary market, particularly, are outrageous. Is that something that Republicans can champion and be on top of? Or is that small potatoes? In other words, I'm trying to find an issue. I don't think Republicans for the midterms have arrived at an issue other than when Mike Johnson was on the show saying, well, we're going to say they're crazy, we're not. I agree. They are. I get what you're saying. But look with Graham Platner. His supporters don't seem to care. I don't know what now. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said these are very troubling. This is where Democrats think they're slick on this. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said about Graham Platner this morning or last night. Very trouble, absolutely troubling, but that's for the people in Maine to decide. See what they're doing? The getting price on Ticketmaster is 3940 for tonight, Henry. Yeah. Wow. I mean, that's the lowest cost? If you want to sit in section 415 row 2, yeah, it's going to cost you almost 4,000. And where would that be approximately? It's on one of the, it's on the left baseline. Okay. Way back up there. Okay. Yeah. So you're...

1:06:19

Good, let's see, three or four sections from the court. Right, and we both agree if it were a night where they could sweep, you might understand it as excessive as it is. My goodness. I don't know if they're filled up, but they appear to be 95% capacity. Oh, at the least, yeah. I thought it was packed the other night. Yeah, it looks like. So when you total all of it up, how much could they rake in for one game, just Celebrity Row based upon some of the prices we've heard? It's stunning. And Rahm Emanuel, the populace sitting there on Celebrity Row. If you're running against this guy, the ad, I mean, you can't be sitting on Celebrity Road there. Well, I can afford it. You know, well, wait a minute, but that's not the point, is it? Let's go to Greg in the Northeast on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Greg. Hey, Dom, Kurt, Henry. Hey, Dom, I'm glad I didn't have you as a teacher. I think you are horrible, actually. Oh, no. Oh, yeah, no doubt about this, because in my family, there was two, we had a grading curve, right? My older brothers and sister had something different. My father always said when I gave him my report card, he was very proud of me. A was awful, B was bad, C was could have done better. E was excellent, and F was fabulous. And I was an outstanding student. What you're trying to tell people is wrong. You're not giving, you're not giving us a chance. But, but that was funny. Yeah, that's right. We want a doctor who's going to be 60% right when he's contributing you for a heart condition. Oh, you know, I got it 60% right. I wish I were back in school. I might get an academic scholarship now. I may be a mensic candidate. You know what I mean? I could do that. If you showed up like three quarters of the time, they'd say, what is it with these kids? You're dragging down the curve. You've got to stop this. Yeah. Well, they gave me pretzels and juice not to come in because I was bad on the class. Exactly. I brought down the average. What's your side, Greg? I had a politician, but he, Kirk said I couldn't. I'm going to go with my favorite movie, one of my favorite characters, Judge Schmails from Caddyshap. Yes, great one. Are you kidding me? Yeah. His pomposity only encroached upon his magnificence. You know what I mean? That's a good one, Greg. That captures it, right? They don't have to be malevolent. They don't have to be Faye Dunaway screaming at the airline. But, yeah, the judge. And again, it's a vocal thing. You know, it's all the ostentatious. And Rodney Dangerfield as the foil there is beautifully done. So Fox is talking about bipartisan focus on rising subscription prices. Well, they're going through the motions with this. Now, you know that I despise the NFL. I mean, they just, they have a product that everybody wants. There's not too much you're going to do about it. And they're going to continue to make even more while being given every break in the world to operate their business. So will Trump, by the way, something on my mind. I wish Markwayne Mullin.

1:09:46

We just stop talking about it and do it. Trump's got a sign off on this. You want to really fire a shot across the bow of the sanctuary cities. I know listeners do we're so tired of everybody going through the motions. Take away their customs ability. In other words, re-entering the country. That's what Markwayne Mullin is talking about. Imagine that at Philadelphia Airport. Krasner was over there in a SWAT team manner. Okay. Duffy, the head of transportation, is all over also on TV, talking about how wrong that would be. It's not wrong. Are we going to sit here and take it in a second Trump term that they continue to do the sanctuary city nonsense? They essentially laugh about it. And they have enough judges that block you from taking away money. Markwayne Mullin is right. He's out there again today on several shows. saying this is what we want to do. Well, all I think it is that President Trump should be the one to sign off on it. All right, let me go to Karen in Oakland on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Karen. Hey, Mr. Giordano from 10th grade. Oh, hi. It's Navy Mom also. People know me as Navy Mom. Oh, okay, Karen. I want to say that you were a very good teacher. I loved how you had us cut out the current events each week, and we had to talk about what was going on, you know, locally and around the world. And that was in the late 70s, so there was a lot going on. And I wouldn't have known about a lot of stuff if you hadn't, you know, made us go in and cut these current events out and talk about them and everything. And you also got us out of our shelves. Like we all had kind of like get up and talk and everything. I enjoyed you as a teacher. Well, thank you, Karen. Thank you very much. I'm glad you're a listener. What are you doing now? I recently retired. I was an internal communications manager for a while. So English major, and then I stayed with that. And I, you know, like to think that you were one of my inspirations to continue with that line of work. Karen, you made my day. Thank you. Thanks for calling. Thank you. I have a great day. What's your side? Do you have somebody pompous?

1:12:03

No, I stay away from those kind of people. Good for you, Karen. Thank you, Karen. Thank you very much. Thanks for calling in with a Karen. Block those phone lines of anyone that calls in on the other side. You got it. Yeah. All right, 855. I mean, I pale in comparison to Roe, though, as a teacher, the eighth grade of school that she taught at the other day. And she was pre-K. They had her out. They had their little thing together with all the eighth grades graduating. And they had written about her back to pre-K. That'd take something to go back to that. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And she is the kindest, but no nonsense at the same time. Telling you, Linda Kearns is in for it on saying that I have to be pampered at home. I'm telling you, I have a, I Googled, there is a writ of mandamus experts in the area that I'll be consulting to bring that up with Linda Kearns when we have the big debate. Is she serious? that she's going to side with the mayor of Amityville of not closing the beaches. He never should have closed them. And that the chief was wrong. The chief had the power and just closed the beaches. That's going to be a winning vote there. And she's going to bring up COVID. I know that's to try to get listeners. Oh, it's tyranny like COVID. We have to have the mayor, Henry, when you're talking with him to get them there. Whatever time he's coming is one will do the debate. It's okay. Because as the mayor, ask him if he has a jacket. I don't know there are any wood that has whales on it or anything. 855-8-3-9-12-10. All right, grab a line, jump in all-time pompous is what we're looking for. 3940 to be in the nosebleeds. How about if the seat was next to Zohran Mamdani? You know, I would pay for that. It's standing room. Zohran Mamdani paid $1,100, I think, for the standing room in Madison Square Garden. I don't think we have that here, right? Uh, not at Xfinity, no. I don't think so. I mean, not to sit down a whole game and you're paying over a thousand. That's what communism will do for you. I mean, that's, that's just pretty good. Those new flights they want to roll out were essentially just standing the entire flight. Standing? Yeah, they basically give you like a bicycle seat to strap into, but you're more or less standing the entire time. Oh, man. And this is, yeah, this would be a cheaper alternative as a ticket. You know, because you can get more people on the plane. What could go wrong with that? Yes. All right. It's 855-839-12-10. That's how you get in. Let's talk. Oh, last night, Diane Cardano, great event. the wine was flowing, the appetizers were flowing, and so were the listeners that came out and got great information from Diane Cardano. Because if you're, I told it to everybody there last night, if you're even thinking about selling your home saying the next year or two, or any time frame that you have, well, there's a lot of mistakes that could be made. You know, you're thinking about it and you're saying that would be great.

1:15:07

We're transitioning to this, that, and the other, where we want to move. And I've got a lot of stories from a lot of people last night at the event. And then we started talking about the biggest mistakes that Diane went through them. Where are you going to go? What do you fix? What do we leave alone? How much all this costs? How do I price my house? Will the inspection become a problem? Are we leaving money on the table because we wait it too long? Diane Cardano can answer all those questions and really help you stage your house. And the key thing with Cardano realtors, getting it sold at the price that's right there for you and take away that stress, the clutter, the repairs, the costly decisions piling up. Talk with her and you'll get a game plan because selling after 60 is different. It's your home, your money, your... memories and the next chapter, and it deserves a real strategy. Call Diane now to get a free copy of her book, Model Home Mindset. Sell Smart, avoid costly mistakes. And again, if you were there last night, follow up if you talk to Diane and get moving on what your plan is. So to talk with Diane Cardano, call 215-576-86666 or online 215-576-866.6.com. Let me tell you something about... Tom Chirado on Talk Radio 1210, WPHPHD. Okay, Dom Jierdano's show, 855, 839, 1210, AT&T, and Verizon Wireless. All you have to do is push pound 1210. Come to your calls. Here is Graham Platner. This is Cut 11, the first one. This guy last night, it was well written. Whoever wrote it with him or forum. And the theme was, I'm imperfect. That's why you ought to elect me. Somewhat blaming PTSD. How does that explain the guy only sells a few oysters a year to his mom? And somebody that knows oysters, it's $22 for six oysters at the mom's restaurant. It's not the most featured item there. I don't see a lot of oysters being sold in this restaurant. Really don't. Here's Graham Platner, though. The Democrat star of the moment, here's what he said. It is deeply humbling. to stand here as your Democratic nominee. It is an honor, and I will not let you down. Until recently, I thought that Harbor Master would be the height of my political career. It now appears that things have changed. But it's funny this morning, this morning was a normal one. I woke up in my home, just a few doors down from the house I grew up by my father. Amy and I shared a pot of coffee. Mother, sent it over. We spent our dogs on the same road that I've spent most of my life on. We spent the afternoon knocking on doors and getting ready for this evening. And then we drove down here to Blue Hill, where I was born.

1:18:28

Born on a maternity ward that has since closed. Trump? I am a son of rural Maine. I was a kid who picked blueberries under the July sun. And then one day, I was a kid who signed up and left to fight for his country. And when I returned, I carried with me the weight of forever wars and the struggle and the alienation that came with it. But I'm also a lucky one. who found his way back, who found a living on the sea, in a home, in a community that offered love and redemption. Redemption is not just some simple or easy destination. It's a journey. I've made mistakes in my life, mistakes that I regret that I live with, and that I continue to learn from. And I'm still far from perfect. But every day I wake up and I try to be a little bit better and a little bit kinder than I was the day before. And if you give me the chance, I will be a senator for the people who cannot afford to buy a senator. All right. So the juices are there, obviously, for this guy. But the key thing I wanted to talk about is redemption. We have more on what he said too. But this metric on redemption. And redemption is a great thing. It's a heart. The Christian faith, you can argue, without a doubt. But do I believe this guy is redeemed? No, I don't. And I have a right to make that judge because of the person, I'm redeemed. And how dare you say, you don't think I am? No, we have a right to say, I don't see it. Yeah, absolutely you do. It's kind of like I'm imperfect. I'm redeemed. That makes me authentic. Roe Khan talking about these are redeemed guys trying to get redemption by being the senator. Now, think about anybody else. that has done the things, we've been through this exercise before, just think this is some conservative, either in the military or not, the Nazi tattoo, the stuff with women, a million other things. Would Democrats be talking redemption? Would they be talking PTSD? No, they would not be in this. It's a double standard again. This guy's useful because they want that seat. And their standard line now, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez encapsulate this morning, I think it was. Yes, these are very troubling. But that's for the people of Maine to decide. Shockingly, Madeline Dean said no. These are over the line. And it's not for the people of Maine. It's over the line to her. Wow. She's rare at this point. So a lot of people ask me yesterday on social media, too, is it better off being in the race with this guy for the Senate or whoever they tag in? And I would say this is going to blow up even more. I hope it goes on for a few months, though. The clock ticks that we get into almost the end of the summer, and then it blows up in ways we can't even imagine now with this guy. Anything is possible. So they're sort of blaming PTSD. They love what he says. Everything is about the billionaires. They want to get it Trump. So if he can win, they'll do anything. You go through the litany of a guy with the Nazi tattoo, the things he said, not just the sexting. Here's an incomplete list. Nazi tattoo lied repeatedly about the Nazi tattoos, said he would rape people, men to dominate them. Sexed it with women, beginning of his marriage, and maybe continued, bragged about drawing penises and port-a-potties, praised Islamic terrorists.

1:22:14

said he's a communist at one point and joined an app known to be used by predators to contact miners. And that's where the juiciest debate of all here taking each other on is Graham Platner and John Fetterman. You got to love that. You got to love to see these two, going back and forth over this. So he'll survive for now. They think they've weathered the storm, but I think with this guy, the storm could be anything that's out there. But the redemption issue, and to be authentic, you have to be like this guy, imperfect as he is. And the biggest charge of all, he's fraudulent. He's not a working person in any way. And Henry had set a good guideline yesterday of the working class. And he'd see a lot of blowback on that, Henry. I don't know if you got any of who's working class and that phrase it's used around this guy. I'm telling you, I think it's a pretty limited number of oysters that his mom is piling off here when I see. It's not the center of her menu or anything like that. There's just one thing on there that says six of these oysters for $22. Yeah, I bet the price fluctuates with how many brings in that week. Yeah, exactly. Did your best gram, I guess the oysters are going to be $100 this week. Scarcity. That seems pretty high to me, though. You only get six after eating it. They get down pretty quick for $22. That's seafood for you. Yeah, you're not a seafood guy. I'm not. I don't get it. I like oysters enough, but yeah. All right. Susan and Chester Springs. Hi, Susan. Welcome back. So, Guy Sharaki the other day was saying, isn't it nice that all these fancy places like Gladwin and Chester Springs are going to be caught? I didn't know Chester Springs was that affluent. Are you kidding me? There is so much money here, you wouldn't believe it. And for a while, it was the hot zip code. And, I mean, I'm Gladwin and now, Sister Springs. I went every summer to Maine. I won't go to Maine again because they've lost their minds. I just... I mean, I'm amazed at the people. I think he's going to win, actually. I think Plankin's going to win up there. Graham Platner, I don't think he'll get to the starting gate in the end, but it's going to take a while. It's going to take a while. Look, a guy with so many things like this, Susan, there will be one that even Madeline Dean now feels she had to call him out. So that's pretty bad, yeah. But you're right, the Nazi tattoo is evidence. When you have a Nazi tattoo and you get away with it so far, you're right, the betting odds are 50-50. Well, come on, Dom. He didn't know what it was. Give him a break. Exactly. What's your sign, Susan? Well, I don't think there's anybody more pompous than who did more damage than Dr. Anthony Fauci. Yeah. I mean... Yeah. I was surprised at him. I don't know about you when I used to see him on when Wallace did the Sunday morning show on Fox. Yes. I thought he was pretty good. And then when this started, yeah, the baggage was overwhelming and the pomposity, definitely there. Thank you, Susan. All right, yeah, Dr. Anthony Fauci's a good one. We're looking for, in honor sort of a Scott Pele.

1:25:34

who is the master of this, somebody pompous, somebody who reeks of all those elements. You hit us at 855, 839, 1210. Coming up, the progressive women gone wild, woman gone wild of the day, whoopey really unloads in the caricature of the view. We'll have that for you. We have Dom's Money Melody coming up. Don't forget, the groundwork is really locking into place for Mulligans on June 19th. We're just about a week away. It is the favorite event of the year. It is the Summer White House. If you hear all these voices, you hear all these characters, you hear Henry and Kirk, you got to come out and meet them, Roe. the defeated Linda Kearns the first time around. I'm surprised they let her have a law license after that defeat last year. And she is going to be on the side of the mayor of Amityville. This might make, somebody might do this as a news story in couple. Let Joe Conklin know that, Henry. He might intervene. And I think the real mayor of Wildwood will probably be, invite Rosanella too. Because this way we'll be sure. Yeah, this way we'll be sure at least have one mayor there to ask him, would you? Close down the beaches. If there was a shark there, you think one of them's going to say, no, I wouldn't close the beaches. Speaking of Jaws real quick, it's not Amityville, it's Amity. Amity, A-M-I-T-Y, not Amityville. Amity. Amity. Amityville is where they had the horror, right? Exactly right. Okay, all right. So it's spelled again. A-M-I-T-Y. Oh, yeah. Amity. Amity. Yeah, not Amityville. Oh, it's just Amity. Oh, I add it. Don, you've got to rewatch the movie. Yeah, I, uh, why am I putting the villain? You're right. That's because I feel like Amityville is like it rolls off the tongue. It's more famous. Yes, it is. It is. It is then Amity. Yeah. Yep. Yeah, I have to go and see Jaws a number of more. 28 or so at this point. Yeah, hey, get up to 30 for next year. Yeah, I think Linda has seen as much as Elvis. I'm looking for any kind of legal mumbo-jumbo she might be trying to bring into this. Who in the world would try to defend that and come up with that? We may have to rescind her award before she even gives it out. I think Joe's going to be disappointed. Yeah, that's right. Take that award away. She's not able to do it. All right. 855-839, 1210. Tom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. For this year, get any fucking what? Dom Gierdano presents.

1:28:19

Progressive women. Your words are garbage and you're a bad person at this point. Gone wild. Absolutely. And today's progressive woman gone wild, Whoopi, arguing that the money from the weaponization fund, remember that President Trump, $1.8 billion, I think it was, should go to the Knicks fans that Trump inconvenience. Here's Whoopi. You now, you're trying to fight to have money to give to people who did bad stuff. give us some of that money so we can pay the people. Can we have the money back? So we can give some of that money back to the people who have worked their behinds off to come out and do this. Because had you not come, people would have been able to be at the watch party outside and perhaps the fights that happened in a place like Brian Park would not have happened. We lost money as a city because he went to sleep. Yeah. But here's my problem. What's your problem? Why didn't he do? stay his ass in D.C. and watch from the house. Why he watched him? Like other Americans, walked from the house. He got a big UFC game. Yes, right. All right. Here you go. So those people, the Knicks fans, usual stuff in Brian Park, Trump caused that. If he hadn't come, they wouldn't be rioting in Brian Park. There you go. Now, if he did cost with games and restaurants and all around there, I didn't think it was a good idea to come either, unnecessary, et cetera, given how difficult it is to get around to New York to start with. But apparently they have the same security measures. set up for game four. I'm not sure if they think of the last minute President Trump ago. He won't. It won't be a clinching game. It won't be anything like that. So I don't think he's gone back. I think we've already been through this enough. As far as the UFC fight, we haven't talked about this, Henry, enough. I am not a fan of UFC. It's ridiculous to me. But I am a fan. I sent you a note Sam Moripizo, who ran for State Senate, great guy. in Kensington Harrogate. We might get Sam back on to explain since this is going to be such a big deal. Now, the owner of UFC is out there saying you'll see the numbers will be Super Bowl-esque. Oh, my God. I agree with that. I agree with Dana White. They're going to be like the Super Bowl watching this? I think this card is absolutely loaded. And I think the scenic backdrop, if you will, of the White House is going to make people tune in more. All right, but Super Bowl-esque. Yes, yeah, I'm not saying maybe they don't hit the same numbers, but in the ballpark. Oh, wait a minute. Okay, so what time is, is this Sunday night, it's his 80th, June 14th, right? Yeah, is it 8 o'clock or is it something like that? Yeah, it'll start at 8. And who broadcasted, do you know? Paramount, I believe. So, I think it'll be on CBS. I'm not mistaken. All right, let's say it's on CBS. If this gets 50 million people, I'll be shocked.

1:31:34

You think it'll exceed 50 million? I think people are going to want to tune in, yeah. I don't know if it'll exceed 50 million, but again, around there. And what's the appeal? It's the highest, you know, level of fighter fighting in front of the White House. I just think I think the location matters a little bit. Oh, I'm sure the location. Like, and to the casual, like, viewer say like as yourself, I think this card is going to be violent enough that you're going to want to keep watching. I think by the, I mean, if you can stay up that late to watch Ilya and Justin Gaetchi go at it. I mean, they're going to beat the snot out of each other. All right. We have to have you handicapped this tomorrow, just some of those names. I want to find out from you. You're going to be watching. Look, you might tune in for the first five minutes. I get it. Why is it that boxing is dead then? Yeah, what, what are you saying? Just punching with gloves on. Right. So that's right. And there's no, there's no heavyweight boxers anymore, you know, really beating each other up. Like all the famous boxers in the worlds are, no offense, Kirk, but the guys your size. What a heck? Yeah, they're tiny guys. That's all. I'm happy to beat up each other. I mean, if you're throwing kicks and jumps and knees and elbows. I guess we got to get Henry, you and Dan in there demonstrating tomorrow. Exactly right. So I'm going to go to the opposite. Okay. All right. So are you going to be watching for that at the White House, the spectacle? I think it's a bad spectacle in front of the White House, too. I'm not on board with it. I'm not. You don't, you think it's not, like, I don't know, it's not the proper decorum of the White House. Yeah, it shouldn't be at the White House. You shouldn't have dudes fighting, bloodying each other up out there. It shouldn't be out there. I agree about that. No, I, you know, and I've tended some things in a way. I'm trying to think of anything else that I think doesn't belong to the White. This is about it. Yeah, UFC fight. Come on. Now, male audience say 18 to 34. It'll be enormous. I probably guess. Yeah, I'm in that. Yeah. Yeah. That's what we're going to guess. But, all right. You won't go for 50 million. And I don't even see 40 million here of total, you know, five-minute viewers. I think the fact that it's not going to be like. You know, they're trying to transition UFC off of pay-per-view, putting it behind a paywall, and they're trying to make it more mainstream. I think this being one of, if not one of the first fights, that's just going to be on regular cable streaming. I think people are going to want to tune in. All right. Are you tuning in? Let us know here. 85583. Hey, Kirk's out of here, and he's looking around for guys coming in there. 855839, 1210. We got Money, Melody, and your calls. Jump on on Talk Radio 1210.

1:34:14

Dom Jierdano, weekdays, noon till 3, from Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. Tom Jirdano, on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. All right, it is Domtime. Welcome in. I'm looking at two of our favorites, Paul Kinitra in the Assembly, and of course Dawn Fantasia, saying tomorrow, They will be up for a vote, I guess. Democrats trying to pass this gender affirming care for minors bill in New Jersey. Even in New Jersey, you guys don't realize you're on the wrong side of history. We're winning. We're going to continue to win. And the best part, we're not winning all at once. So you are going to continue to lose on this issue. In any race that is reasonably closer, where the Republican has the upper hands and they play this issue correctly. It's big time trouble, particularly the sports part of it. There is just no getting around it. Why do Democrats keep on doing it? Because they believe they have to with their base. Now, I just saw Mayor Parker in Philadelphia assured the Gaberhood after the Pride Festival event over the weekend in Center City that the police are really going to be under scrutiny for trying to restore order, apparently with a lot of people there. The interesting thing, they said that several of the cops, at least two or three, had face coverings. So I would say I am opposed to those cops that had face coverings. Because I'm consistent with the principle. There's a reason why ICE needs to have face coverings, but that police do not. And I get they saying they're violative of the regulation of the Philadelphia Police Department. Okay, that's their regulation. And I get it. Now, there might be instances. We all know, you know, undercover something where there's, but in uniform in this manner, I don't think they ought to have face coverings. And I'm saying it because it just underlines why we think that ICE agents should do that. There's a difference here. All righty, 855, 839, 12, 10, you get on board. Here's a little bit more of Graham Platner. This is part two of his acceptance last night. So, so far, he's imperfect but authentic. The Nazi symbol, he didn't know anything about. That was the Today Show today saying, suspected Nazi, he bragged about it. He knew what it was definitively. Well, then there's PTSD. Let's throw that in. They believe in their minds a winner here, but I think Madeline Dean is expressing what some Democrats are thinking. This guy is dangerous because he could blow up in the end. God knows what he's done here. And two, he'll lose ultimately, and this is a potentially winnable seat, they think, and he might drag all these people into having to defend him, and that could be politically messy. Last night, though, his speech was about redemption. He's redeemed. So let's take one of the worst, Michael Vick. Why do I say Michael Vick appears to be redeemed? Well, I'm not observing him every day. I was on a call with him. He was a guest, and it was being set up, and I'm just listening to the back and forth there, and just the way he conducted himself. Then when he stood up for a teammate who made racial remarks, you may remember,

1:37:55

I think he showed leadership. And he's gone on to do things that I think have a pretty good background. And he did in the minds of people, let's face it, this is the type of thing that's unforgivable. And it was too quickly that the Eagles brought him here. That's the deal. You know, ultimately, could he prove redemption? So Graham Platner is kind of like the objection early on. How is he redeemed? You know, and we're being lectured to by Democrats saying us, well, don't you believe in redemption? That's your religion. So who is it that you suspect is a redeemed figure? I offered up Michael Vic as one that I don't see it in Graham Platner. It's not political. I just don't. I think this guy has gotten away with it his whole life through the parents. The lobster fraud of the oyster fraud is just another example of it. And I don't see anything here about him making atonement. I don't think he got any treatment for PTSD. The way he treated women, his wife, etc. That would be disqualifying most times around. Why is he getting a pass? Why is he the white guy that gets a pass? Because they see that he's tapped into something. Here are the people that are the coaches of Graham Platner. I'd rather play this one. Listen to these two. It's almost like Portlandia, said Jennifer say on Twitter today. These are the two people, the talent scouts, that discovered him. Now, you have to have an eye for this. I think all three of us were in agreement. Henry Kirk and I, when we saw Alante McCauley and that first time we played him, we were like, wow, this guy is something that's happening here. These people. are acting like the first time they saw the Graham Platner, it was like seeing Mickey Mantle hit a baseball there and he's just like, oh my God, you know, and then run a 4-4 or something. They saw it. They went, wow, this is what Democrats want. Working class, rough, manly, masculinity. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he throws women around. He's got a Nazi tattoo. Didn't they learn about that? What did they say? The moderator doesn't ask that. Well, when he had the Nazi tattoo, what did you think about that? Here are the two discoverers, talent scouts, coaches of Graham Platner. And at this point, You hadn't vetted Graham Platner. You hadn't done a full scrub of who he is. How did you go about vetting him? And why did you... We paid a, yeah, we paid a nice firm, a whole chunk of money and got some stuff back, some of what you've seen on the news we got back, other stuff we didn't. Did the vetting process turn up the tattoo that became so controversial? No. The Reddit posts, did that turn up in the vetting process? The firm sent us a thing, and it had some of the posts, but it didn't have all of them. And what did you think about that? How did you think your way through the fact that he had posted these things on social media?

1:41:17

I said none of this will or should stop him from becoming a U.S. Senator. And what was your thinking there? I think if what the voters wanted were people who were grown in vats and had never done or said anything that they might regret their entire lives, we'd have a very different country. Part of our thesis here is that people do not want their candidates grown in vats. They want people. who are real human beings, and they want people who do not look and sound like the background people who've been leading this country off the cliff for the last century. And that was Graham. Just days after. That guy's voice is not an athlete. I don't think it's like Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. I don't know. He has a problem. What do you mean? Yeah. These are the two talent scouts. These nitwits, if you saw it on YouTube, too, who discovered Graham Platner. Not only are they saying, yeah, yeah, yeah, we saw this, but we think we can finesse it. They're not saying that. They're saying this is part of the appeal. He's not born into a vet. You know where they're going with this. They're going with Trump. And every time. We hear someone say they have found a Trumpian type of candidate. They're missing some of the things despite whatever the negatives are of Trump that made Trump such an appealing candidate in 2016. And they're saying this guy's got the same thing going on. Okay. But aren't Democrats the ones that usually when there's stuff like this up on Twitter, they say disqualifying. A Nazi tattoo, you just don't hear that every day. And then throwing around women, keeping the one woman, you'll be in there to you calm down. That's pretty remarkable. Put her in a room holding the door. She goes to sleep the next day and he finally lets her out. Yeah. And not only, he didn't beat a woman up or anything. I think at this point he can get away with that for a while. But he's a rugged looking guy and picking women by the shoulders and moving them around like that. And it's multiple women that said it. He hasn't apologized for this. He seems to deny it more than anything. That didn't come up in the vetting process. That's dead on. That's really good. And the woman just laughing through the whole. And how about the moderator? He looks like the guy, a ghost that's risen again. I'm going to fall asleep listening to him. See, I always look at it from what I do with the moderator. And I told the story this week. that I was at the Bloviator's Convention. There was a guy who was really annoying on the panel, obnoxious. And as the moderator there, though, it wasn't my own show. I couldn't jump into the ring fully a little bit. It started to get into the ring. You'll see the tape panel. I think it'll be out tomorrow. I don't think we should play. It'll cause for trouble. But the moderator could have said, well, what are you talking about? Why didn't you think these things? What is it you know that these would not be a problem? By the way, Fox is showing Billy Schmidt's sister again on national TV in this rally tomorrow night at 20th and Dürfer Street. So this case had this story has really has a national tinge to it. Still no word on the people who killed them or anything else. And Krasner doesn't seem to be.

1:44:39

Or I don't see an all-out effort. The police said they're doing it during daylight hours. All right. You know, it's just another murder in the minds of some. All right, 855-839-12-10. That's how you get in. So my sense is Graham Platner is going to incrementally decrease support among elected officials. And the Dodge is going to be, yeah, but I'm not going to get in the way of the people of Maine. Yeah, but what do you say? Has he gone over the line? Is there a line out there, of course he has. Will there be something where the support, it won't blow up for him? He's still going to have support. Now, this is indicative of what we're facing in the midterms. These people are going to come out and vote and they want to win. I don't see the ferocity on the Republican side. I just don't see it. The playing field's much better. Could we eke it out in the midterms? Not if they keep on going like they are now. Got to be a big turnaround of emotion and on top of things. No more putting on. Yeah, but Dom, it's not even. Every day to me is an all-out war. You're not saving anything to the end here. Not after Labor Day or anything like that. You've got to be doing it now. 855, 839, 12.10. Right now, first, though, for a big prize. It's time for... It's Dobbs. Money Melody. Where's all the money gone? All right, and we are playing today for a $50 gift card to the Metro Diner. Kids eat free on Wednesdays this summer at Metro Diner from 2 p.m. to close at participating locations. Families get a free kids menu favorite with the purchase of an adult entree. Stopping this week for a quick, easy, and affordable answer to what's for dinner? Henry? Yeah, Dom. So side question today, we're asking for those real or fictional people that are just pompous. And Keith Richards once said of Bruce Springsteen. He once said, Bruce, it's a tough one because I like the guy, but the music, I don't know. I'm the toughest taskmaster of all time. I'm going to annoy a lot of people. But Bruce, to me, his music is pretentious. Oh, that's the synonym for it. Yeah. See, I don't know about, I don't agree with that. Well, it's fraudulent, though, now. It's a great theme of what he broke in with. But he has gone so far in his own life, et cetera, wound it, that it's more fraudulent than pretentious to me. Do you think it's pretentious? Apparently Keith Richards does, yeah. Wow, that's a nugget there. Yeah. So, yeah, so pretentious, pompous, you know, it's all in the same neighborhood. So Keith Richards, obviously famous for being a part of the Rolling Stones. So I'm going to play a Rolling Stone song here today. I want to know this pompous cover band covering them today.

1:47:36

David Bowie once said of this band, they're a bit arrogant, and I guess that's the nicest way he could say, you know, they're totally ripping off my sound. You know, I've inspired all their music. I guess that's what he wanted to say, but he's not pompous, so he wouldn't say that. But the leading man of this band actually said about himself one time, I'm not a snob. Ask anybody. Well, anybody who matters. So, yeah, I want to know this band, again, not a snob, not a snob, but maybe a little pompous. I want to know the name of this 80s band here, covering Paint It Black. It's been a great show today. We've learned that Faye Dunaway apparently is the face of pomposity based on Henry. I'll tell you that. All right. Well, that's a lot of great research for that. Thank you. That's, yeah, that, that, now I don't see him as pretentious. I think it was a great theme, but he's fraudulent now. He's just political, plus he's living passe. He's not connected to it. Is that an air of pomposity then? Like, I'm still this when you're really not? You know what? Yeah, you mean wearing the clothing of it? Yeah, I still wear my denim, you know? It's like, yeah. Yeah, that's true. And that's the thing with Planner that gets me the most. What a fraud he is. He's probably producing a thousand oysters a year. He's living off. He's making his living from the sea. They gave a harbor master job that he probably does nothing. And that's it. 855, 839, 1210. Hit us with that. And you're going off to the Metro Diner with a big $50 gift card on Talk Radio 1210. By the way, I'm looking at Bill Gates sidling into the testimony room today. Denying wrongdoing during the Epstein testimony. I don't know if there's any sound out of that, Henry. I forgot about that. But, oh, man, Bill Gates and Epstein. Did he keep his trousers on? Coming up next on Talk Radio 1210. Tom Chiodato on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. It's Dom, Money Melody. Where has all the money gone? Show me to my... That is right. So let's hear the clue. David Bowie thought this band was a bit arrogant because they sound like him a bit. Still working on, Dan, it's like a whistle. I'm surprised he's in the other room. We heard Springsteen called out by the Stones. Wow. Brian and Saturday on Talk Radio 1210. All right, Brian, what's your answer today? Party Man Pipe, you're DJ for Life. I do all occasions from weddings, the funerals. What's the difference? All right. What's your answer? Duran Duran. Durand, Durant. All right, nicely played. Guys are pro. I mean, yeah, what's a difference from weddings? Right. I mean, yeah, you've got the whole jingle like that down. You're pretty good DJ. You probably could hear Duran Duran. I have to ask Jim Kelly if he's ever done a funeral. I know he's done other stuff. I hope you surprised. He's Mulligans. Yeah, he wants to. He wants to come down there. I have to work on this. We don't even know about that surprise guest yet. Right. Either. I'm still working on that one. Yeah.

1:50:48

All right, Brian, you are the winner. Enjoy the Metro Diner with a $50 gift card. Anything more than Henry? No, if I were going to keep going, I would have said Simon LeBond, the lead man of Duran Duran. He can say things like that where, you know, I'm not a snob, asking anybody, well, anybody who matters. This is coming from a guy who's nearly drowned twice. Oh, okay. I feel like I just, I don't know. There's something about almost drowning. Like I feel like you got to humble up after that, just a little bit. That was a really good research, though, on this. All right, I'm coming to you. I found this today to be, and I'll roll out a few little. snippets of it that Gallup poll. And Gallup is still, look, I know bias in polls and all that. They asked Americans their views on the moral acceptability of 20 behaviors, birth control. Their point is that it's going down, these things being seen as morally acceptable. How many times I would say? Yeah, some of these behaviors are iffy or bad. I'm glad it's going down. But birth control is down to 83% of people that consider it acceptable. Henry, you want to jump in on that? Are you afraid to model? Say it again. 83% of Americans consider birth control to be acceptable. I do too. Yeah, but I bet there are listeners who don't. Oh, yeah. Divorce, 74% consider it to be acceptable. I do. I understand the damage of it, but sometimes the damage is even worse the other way. You don't consider it acceptable. Wow. No, I guess I don't. Ah. Sex between unmarried man and woman, what would you say the Gallup poll says the percentage, and it's gone down, is acceptable? 93. 65. Really? All right, Kirk. That's surprising. Yeah, I hear you. That one's worse. Yeah, that's a better or I guess worse score than divorce. This one, Kirk, using medical research using stem cells from human embryos. What percentage say acceptable nationally? 50%. Fifty-nine percent. Whoa. And it's gone down a little. I'm surprised it's at high. That used to be a 50-50 issue. Yes. Having a baby outside of marriage, Henry, acceptable.

1:53:17

65. 58%. Wow. Gambling now. I don't have the gambling question. Oh, man. That must be 90s. Yeah, gambling in general. Kirk, what do you say? Yeah, I was going to say, Henry, at least 90%. Fifty-seven. Wow, no kidding. That's so shocking. Buying and wearing clothing made of animal fur. I got to say I'm in the unacceptable camp. If you have full knowledge of it, don't do it. I find it unacceptable. Henry, what percentage said acceptable? 70. 57%. That's crazy. Yes. Here's the one that got me. Ah, God. We're a fighting and losing battle, Kirk. Acceptable in this gallop poll, the death penalty. Oh, wow. I would say 80%. 52% percent. Wow. 52% nationwide. No kidding. Yes. Now, I talk radio circles with listeners, I would still say it's close to 90. Maybe I take it down, 85. Wow. That's crazy. Only 52%. All right, Henry, here's yours. Doctor assisted suicide. Ugh. Five. 49%. That's ridiculous. Yeah. Let's see. Cloning animals, Kirk. Acceptable or? Acceptable, right. Yeah.

1:54:51

10%. 27%. I thought that was low. That's the one thing that seems to bother people versus all these others. Are we reading this poll right? Exactly right. Is it backwards? Let's see. There's no way. Let's see. There's no way people draw the line at cloning in them. That's where they draw the line. Extra marital affair, Henry. Oh, boy. He's not married. He's got no statement again. I might as, uh, 45. Kirk Kevin, you. I was it 80. 7%. Whoa. Oh, that's what people are. No extra marital affairs. And if you do have one, make sure you're not cloning any animals involved. Got to watch out for those two things. What is wrong with this poll? Who took this poll? What's the world of people in general? Gallup. And it was a. Big poll, and their takeaway was the moral acceptability of 20 behaviors is going down. Usually, you would say that's a good thing, except with some of these. I don't know why it's going down to that level. Yeah, I don't get. I need to see the demographics. I agree with you on that. Okay, I'll pull it up, but I think they're pretty, you know, pretty widespread. Especially death penalty. You would think it'll be higher. Yeah, 52%. Abortion, I didn't bring up because we, you know, I don't want, but 49%. say acceptable. So that's right on the line of... Some people suck. Yeah. And, you know, a lot of people put depends in here. You can't say depends. You got to make a choice in broad senses here. So I guess we agree abortion is only acceptable, 74%, 26% say it's not acceptable to get divorced. Look. We don't want divorce to be rampant. I don't know what the numbers are now. And birth control was only 83% acceptable. But the buying and selling of anima fur is still at 57%. I think is Corella DeVille walking around? I was still. I really didn't think that was in. Yes. I thought that's, we watched Seinfeld too much, Elaine and all that stuff. If you have a comment on any of those. Sometimes the birth control is a difficult site. You know, that's gone up over the years. It used to be seen as unacceptable. Smoking marijuana is not on here. I would put that if Gallup poll, if they did it. 65 to 70% acceptable. I think it's at high. I would say we'd be more higher than that. Yeah, I would go up to the 90s again. You guys. Oh, yeah. We're getting high. With the way this poll's gone, it's probably like 6% or something. Right, right. Well, so the worst thing on here out of the 20, unless my page got to cut off, there's a couple I missed. Extramarital Affairs only 7% say acceptable. I don't know what they mean by acceptable. Like, yeah, you can do it. You know, and I don't care. Yeah, I would think that's what they're. But divorce, it's all good. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah, that's what. All right. Feel free to comment on any of those as we could, but only 52% the death penalty. Wow. So I'm looking at just as I'm talking about that on Fox, they're talking to the family of the college student, Billy Schmidt.

1:58:05

And if you asked in Philadelphia for the two that did this, would the death penalty be acceptable? If they go through trial, they have their attorneys, the whole thing and all, I don't even think you would get a third, maybe a third it would say acceptable. That's how low it's gone. Remember, this takes into account Texas and places like that. So the death penalty, somehow another, the left is one on this, convincing people not acceptable. Only 52% say acceptable.

All right, we're coming to your calls to get a winner today. Someone who's pompous, these have been really, really good. Cory Booker, we try to stay away from the political. We didn't want to just steer toward Democrats, progressives, and I've had him in person. The Spartacus stuff, he just goes off into his, he's pompous. He really is not in a degrading you way, but just in a grandiose way, Spartacus. We have some cut that I just seen, Huahan, who's going to run against John Fetterman, so she's out there in the suburbs trying to pretend to be moderate and also give off the code of progressives. And the code is with Graham Platner. to say, yes, I'm with him. It's up to the people of Maine to decide. Who am I to have an opinion about this? Now, Chrissy Hoaghan on CNN, and Dana Bash does bring this up. She is the daughter. You are the daughter of Holocaust survivors. Do you support Graham Platner with a Nazi tattoo?

2:00:55

Here's Dana Bash on CNN with Chrissy Hoaghan. You are a military veteran. You are the daughter and granddaughter of Holocaust survivors. What do you make of his claims and do you support him as a candidate? So the good news is that I'm not a resident of Maine and I don't make that choice for the people of Maine. I am hopeful that his candidacy is successful. My understanding is that he has been resoundingly chosen by the people of Maine for the nominee position. We could have a very long conversation about personal foibles, and we are in a world where we are unfortunately constantly confronted with them. I would love to make people understand that it's important to lead by example, and I try to do that with my own life every single day. And so I will start by leading my life in the way that I would like to see people be elected with the values that I have. All right. You see, the playbook is out. A nice play there, Oahuahan. The O'Hooahan. She added something to that. Now, Madeline Dean, the Dean of Decency, I've gone after more than anybody. This is you kidding me. This guy's over the line. Notice what she's doing there. Let's break it down, Chrissy. So the Holocaust survived. This guy is not giving any kind of credible. sense of why he had a Nazi tattoo. Okay, can you imagine what she'd be saying if that were John Fetterman or somebody else that she's running again. She's running for the Senate. And then she adds to, well, that's for the people of Maine. Then she adds the piece, well, I can only do what I'm running on. Now, that's not how it works. We're trying to set what the bar is. When it comes to Trump, they set what the bar is and the criticism of his personal life. Okay. then how in the world does this guy not get criticized for the Nazi tattoo and failure to be accountable for it in any way, shape, or form? Not even an attempt at it. And as Dan Abash says there, I didn't know fully that. Something of, you're the child of Holocaust survivors, and I think the grandchild, she mentioned. And you're a military person. Pullihan is running for the Senate. against John Fetterman. Boyle is running for the Senate, Northeast Philly, against John Fetterman. There's probably five or six others, and they have to show that they truly are going to be progressive. And progressive here means you got to support this guy, whatever cockamamie reasoning you use to get to that line, well, I'd be pretty hard if I were in Maine. Now, Danabash could have said, okay, let's say you are a citizen in Maine. You could vote. Would you be voting for this based upon what you've heard? Madeline Dean saw it pretty clearly that you answer questions like this because it's about your party, it's about the standard, about the metric. So essentially, you're trying to get out of it, but you want to say, yeah, this guy's fine, he's within the lines that we've set up here. Wow. I didn't know the Holocaust part of it.

2:04:09

So maybe Graham Platner will call her as a witness to why he's fit still to continue. He's going to continue. He's getting, he's in his mind and that it's passed. He's gotten away with that he won the primary. True. But over the next couple months, this incrementally will bring up other things about it. If I were running against him, the area I would go with, though, is the area of what a fraudulent figure this is. Mommy and Daddy. pushing him along. His oysters, I bet, are not even second rate if he sells any. Imagine he's making his living from the sea. The whole enterprise, his boat and everything else, is only worth $50,000. He only sells him to the mom. She only has one mention of the oysters on her entire menu. It's six oysters for $22. How much is this guy actually making out of that? That's his one client. It's not a big oyster house or anything. You know, we were in Charleston. They had oyster houses. You know, well, that's on the name of the thing. If she were running an oyster house, even then, how much dollar value could he sell in oysters just to one client for a year? You make the profit on this because they're going to make their profit too. It wouldn't be enormous just for one. How many oysters can you consume? How much? Only one item on the menu when I researched it. It's got to be piddling what this guy's doing. So what's he really working at? Well, then he said he's on disability. Okay, he did serve in the military. Okay. That's where to go at this guy on in the race itself. But more broadly, the political thing is, hey, we don't want to hear about Trump anymore if Graham Platner is in Chrissy. Let's go to Phil in Delaware on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Phil, good afternoon. What do you have today? And good afternoon and happy New Year to y'all. I like the, yeah, let's keep the y'all in. Well, you're in Southern Delaware. That's fine. Right. Yes, I'm in Dover right now. By the way, I see that as pompous. If you're not from the South, then you're throwing you all in. It just rubs me the wrong way. And that's the whole idea of them throwing that in like Kamala Harris. She'll morph into any type of tone for you. Yeah. Real quick, at a meeting the other night, our city council and their wonderful selves. There were no other residents at this budget meeting. And I said, you know, you give us three minutes. Can I just have an extra two? They said, we don't have any more time. So me, for my flair of Dramatics, I look to the right, to the left, up, down. Where are all the residents that are going to speak up that you can't give me two extra minutes? He said, that's just how it is. Good move, Phil. Yeah. What's your side today? Sounds like I'm in Philly. What's your side, Phil?

2:07:19

I feel Clint Eastwood because he says, make my day, and he doesn't care at all. He'll go after you and then shake your hand as you're lying dead. All right. Thank you, Phil. All right. That's taking pomposity to a new level. All right. So we're looking for that all-time pompous individual. I want to play you one quick thing so we don't forget. This is a big. It's vote blue. All kinds of testimony going on at Capitol Hill today. Henry, as I understand that this is the head of Vote Blue, Act Blue, refusing to answer any questions. So, Loudermilk, with an interesting name, the Republican from Oklahoma is here, someplace like that, tries to get her to answer something. You've seen it before. Underground's of my attorney. I'm taking a Fifth Amendment. Yeah. She'd been doing that all day because they're asking, where did the donation money come from? I plead the fifth. Like, who are your donors? I plead the fifth, all that. So I think she might have just been in the zone when, yeah, Representative Loudermilk, just wanted a clarification on how to pronounce her name, you know? I do have a series of questions for you. But I want to make sure I'm respectful. Is it Ms. Jay Jones or Ms. Wallace Jay Jones? On the advice of counsel, I respectfully declined to answer the question pursuant to my Fifth Amendment rights under the Constitution. Wow. Okay, wow. Okay, didn't expect that one. But I think I see where this is going. Yeah. Well, there wasn't that voice in the middle of it, not a chuckle, but a pompous, you know, pompous, pretentious. I'm not answering your question. I'm not going to give you my name. And like, I'm going to get away with this. Yeah. No, you're not. It's crazy. It's like, dude, your name's literally written on a placard right in front of you. He just wants to better know how to address you. Like, this isn't, right, exactly. These aren't the nuclear code. Exactly. All right. It is time for the lightning round, all-time pompous. Boy, we got some 1927 Yankees on board leading off with Zenos. All right, there we go. Coming up on Talk Radio 1210. Tom Giardano on Talk Radio 1210. WPHD. The time has come for the final test. We usually call us the lightning round. All right, Leslie Fisherbine says Joe Biden, pompous. Yeah, I would say Jill Biden, Dr. Jill Biden, right there. That's it. That's it. I'm a doctor. That's it. That's it. That's a pom-pop. More than Joe. He's just challenged, you know. He's a blowheart, too. That's true. Dr. Jill, though. Zenos and Upper Derby, something about the Roman Emperor. What the heck? Hey, Zinos, good afternoon. Good afternoon, Dom. Yasu and Chow. How are you? How's everybody doing over there? Very good, Zinos. Everybody's good. Well, the reason, yes. You can't get any more pompous than Roman emperors and even my people. What's his name, Alexander the Great? He thought he was a direct descendant of Apollo. Then you have one other Roman emperor. He used to walk around a lion's skin. He thought he was a direct descendant of Hercules.

And then, you know what, you had the other ones that were good, they considered themselves gods. So how much more poppins can you get than that, Tom? Very nicely done. I follow the logic. Thank you, Zinos. Oh, man. The Greeks weren't the centerpiece of that. It was more the wrong. Well, he did work them in. Hercules. That's an outrage. Michael in Wilmington. Hi, Michael. Hey, Dom. How are you? My good, sir. How is everybody today? Very good. Excellent, excellent. Great show, Dom. I'm a real quick just wanted to say, tough to listen to that guy, Graham Platner, talk about a pompous guy. My God, I hope Maine wakes up really quick because tough. Tough to hear that guy. Wow. Man. Son of Maine picking blueberries, you. Yeah, you oyster farmer, lobster guy. But imagine, Mike, I went to the menu. I'm going to give a call over there today and ask, you know. Could I get like a hundred lop, a hundred oysters? And if they say, no, we never carried that much, right there. That'll tell me. That'll tell you immediately, Dom, immediately. So getting to my side today, guy I thought of who was just so pompous and arrogant. Fictional, but a great character was Ebenezer Bah Humbug, Scrooge. How many times did that guy think he was better than everyone else? Better than Bob Marley, better than poor Bob Cratchett the whole time until he met his stay with all these ghosts. No one more pompous than Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Humbug. Thank you very much, Gary, in Newtown. Hi, Gare. What's yours today? We're going to make it quick. of course. Nine more days. Just nine more days, Henry. Thank God. I can't. Well, you know, tomorrow the next day, we might hear the Henry Mischad Award. I'm already regretting this with Linda Kearns because she's sending me designs during the breaks like it's a reflection pool or something. Speaking of Linda Kearns, how did the subject of debating the mayor of Amityville or Amity? I started that with my two-syllable summer song, you know. It may have gotten in her mind, but that's what the... Imagine defending the mayor in this, Gary. She's going down big time here. Curns is down. I'm with... No, I forget about it. My person, based on the theme of your show, actually was pompous and arrogant and then totally redeeming himself at the end of the movie. And one of my favorite scenes is when he treaches his way all the way back for a rental car out in the park and out through the snow and his $1,000 Gucci slippers.

And it gets in front of the, the agent goes, you can start by wiping that effing dumb bag off your effin' cheeks. And you can give me an effin' automobile, effin dachshund, effin, effin, Toyota, effin Mustang. And that would be, that would be a needle page in cranes and chains and automobiles. Very nice. Thanks, Gary. Robert and Ben Salem. Robert, afternoon, what's yours? Hey, Dom Henry, good to talk to you guys. I'll be quick. Henry was right about, I'll say Dunaway. In fact, when they chose her to play Joan Crawford and Mommy Dearest, another famous actor said, wow, talk about typecasting. Hey, Donaway goes down here on the show. Yeah, but I'll be quick. My answer is going to be major Charles Emerson, Winchester from Mass. Of course, he went to have it, playing on yesterday's questions. And at one point, somebody said, how do you deal with the pressure and the heat without sweating? And he said, a Winchester does not sweat, we perspire. And I do not perspire. You guys have a great day, Doc. Thank you, Robert. Let's squeeze in Joe in Exton. Joe, what do you have today? Cue your thing is. Hi. Yes, hello, Dom. And good afternoon. Good afternoon, Joe. When Muhammad Ali began his boxing career, he was known as Cassius Clay. And Cassius Clay would strut around the boxing ring shouting, I am the greatest, I am the greatest. Thank you, Joe. Henry, a quick ruling at 15 seconds or so with AJ putting on the Eagles board down there. He's the greatest receiver ever in Eagles history and always open. He signed it. Yeah. You can't be ninth all the time in receiving yards and say that. I mean, look, you're dominant. You want it to Super Bowl. You at least helped. I can't say you're number one now. Sorry. Well, signing it on the board, too, there. That's pomposity. Pomposity. Yes. What do you say, Kirk? I'm going with Greg from Northeast with Judge Smales. Judge Smales, yeah. That was a good call. Absolutely. Henry, how about yours? Yeah, I like the Judge Smales call. I liked Zenos with the Roman emperors. Of course. Something about Gary Newtown reenacting planes, trains, and automobiles. That was great. Let's go with Greg into Northeast. Okay. Let's put Greg into the hat. And tomorrow, we're already working on that. We have Joe Concha tomorrow, too. Among other things. And more platinum. This guy is just, I wish you were here in Pennsylvania. Oh, my God. The gift that keeps on giving. Follow me on Twitter at Dom Show 1210. And don't, oh, Alante McCauley in the house tomorrow. He'll be at City Hall tomorrow. I think he's at the Republican meeting tonight in the Northeast. What could go wrong? Afternoon show is next.
