Welcome in coming to you not from New York City. That's in my contract. I'm not going there. Can't be there with all those Knicks fans of this part. But I have a couple guys, great producers. We'll see how great they are for over three hours. But great guys to talk with who'll be here with us at 1.30. How much would it cost them if they ever get to live in Manhattan? And one of them is a soccer, Henry, aficionado. Make sure you, you know, cut his mic a little bit during that talk, okay, at 1.30. All right, so I'm already here, Henry, if you can imagine, I'm looking at a screen a moment ago of all these giant watch parties in New York. And I have this seating chart coming up here. What you have to do is you have to, I'm in Hempstead. Of course, getting to Penn Station easy. But they can't just give you a straight, no, New York, they can't give you a straight train to Hempstead. You got to get off in a place called Jamaica. Like suddenly you think you're on an island or something. Who are these people in Queens? And then you have to take another train to Hempstead. And then the same thing back. And they won't even let you go back to Penn Station. You've got to go to Grand Central after a certain time. So it sounds like you had a nice, easy commute. Oh, my God. Yes. And then walking about 1.2 miles. To you, Henry, that's a drop in the bucket, yeah, to get here. So it's been quite an excursion. But while all this is going on, talking to people here, the thing several hosts, Harry Hurley, who'll be here at 1 o'clock and I talked about, is Mikie Sherrill doubling, tripling down now, adding $20 million now. to people that are here illegally to defend them. Now, you know what this is? This is coming off what happened at Delaney Hall. And Mikie Sherrill did the right thing. She sent in the state police at the appropriate time. They did a good job. They enforced the curfew. Then the mayor took it away. She took some heat from the left because she sent in the state police. Her argument was, well, I didn't want ICE to get into it with the protesters. Okay. So this is a move to show she's still with that side. And I even see Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton and others, threatening to file a lawsuit. This is sedition. Now, I don't know that it's sedition.

But it is awful curious in Jersey. Affordability is the watchword. And here we're upping this by tens of millions of dollars, something that's already pretty dicey for the average New Jersey. The other thing, Henry got my attention, and I was following this as we were getting here. I don't want to talk about platinum every day. But... You sent me some stuff. What is it that you found today? Because you were on the watch more than I. I'm on these wretched train rides about Graham Platner and women. What's your takeaway of what he's accused of doing by this one woman in the New York Times and apparently a bunch of others? Yeah, it seems that he was messaging them on some sort of messaging service and being a little, you know, creepy. He knew what he was doing, though, when he was being a creep on these. It's tough to talk about, honestly. Yeah, he has a thing, too, the one woman reported in the New York Times where he fantasizes about raping a male, and he says not in a way that is homosexual, but to show dominance. Right. And the woman in the New York Times that exposed this guy, exposed the fact that he was proud of the Nazi tattoo and talked about it. He knew enough, and this is the game this guy, I think, thinks he was playing. He didn't slap her around or anything, but he would pull her around. He would grab her wrist. He imprisoned her once until he told her to calm down, what appeared to be a pretty big period of time. Democrats, my prediction is, are not going to be able to outlast this. As much as they're thinking, what the hell did we do? We had that seat. Look at the polling. He's still ahead, which he won't be at some point here. But how in the world can they maintain this? Here is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and I'm not sure if it's cut six or seven, Henry, don't have it in front of me, being asked about this and avoiding the question. Now, here's one of the premier feminists, or whatever word we want to use, being asked about this guy, Graham Platner, look, it's got to be difficult. You want to win. He's the key to winning the Senate. Here's what she said or didn't say when asked about Graham Platner. Yeah, I mean, as you all know, this is all to hold. Yeah, I mean, as you all know, this is all kind of just came out. I've been doing legislative business on the floor, so I need to dig into everything further before commenting on it. Yeah, because I think this reporting just recently came out, so I just want to make sure that I'm fully read up on this before. All right. So again, they're in a tough spot on this. A few that are reasonable. Van Jay Jones last night and others say this is a telltale moment for Democrats. Are they going to continue with this guy? Because it's not as if it's one thing. It's the constant nature of how out of control he has been and still is and more and more will come out in the very near future. All right. The story, Henry, that you sent me to, that I really don't like, and I don't think Bill Gates is involved with it.

Where are they releasing mosquitoes to kill other mosquitoes? As soon as these maniacs are releasing 20 million mosquitoes. I get nervous up here in Hempstead, New York. Are they coming this way? Well, you undersold it with that. It's not even 20 million. It's 64 million. Oh, 64 million mosquitoes. What could go wrong? Yeah. Oh, my gosh. It sounds like kind of a dystopian, like, story, doesn't it? Yeah, absolutely. So where are they releasing them? So they're releasing them over parts of California and Florida, which I guess are naturally the most buggy kind of places. And the idea, why are they releasing them? They're releasing them so that these new mosquitoes will infect these other mosquitoes, essentially render them unable to bear children in the future, and that will drastically reduce the population of the seeds. Hey, Kirk, I hear you there. Get in on that. What do you think, Kirk? It sounds like a good plan, doesn't it? That's odd. Yes. Yeah, to put it mildly. All right. So we'll continue to monitor that. But the two big things I see that are going on. One, Mikie Sherrill, this is, she's much more active than Phil Murphy. Ultimately, she'll be worse. The other thing is we end the week. The 12th congressional district, that's not gone away. This Egyptian-born plastic surgeon who won. How did he win when you realize this is an affluent suburban community? In other words, this guy who's the buddy of the blind cheek testified for him was his road dog, went on stuff with him at all. This American hater, we have people on TV on Fox News now talking about their loved ones that were killed in the bombing of 1993. How is this guy, how did he get through? Well, he had $2 million in pro-Palestinian money for a congressional seat. But the people that voted for him, they were voting in large measure because of his ads, which attacked Israel, said they were genocidal maniacs going after Gaza. That's how he got through. What does it tell us then that a suburban community like this, this is very blue, but very suburban. Very similar to the Mikie Sherrill district where we have a woman who says she's a socialist and clearly she's a communist that won there. What has happened to suburban Jersey? In other words, it always was, or a lot of it could be liberal, but liberal in the sense of who would I point to, that that's a liberal, Bill Maher or something, or even less than Bill Maher. And now they're electing people. that are overjoyed in buddies of people that attempted to kill a lot more of us and only killed some of us. This is what the big story, my version of this, the Philadelphia suburbs. How Montgomery County, look at Delaware County. I mean, that is an outfit that is progressive. It used to be a Republican. Chester County, they're just incompetent. Bucks County's trying to be that. What in the world happened to the suburbs? Could I see Montgomery County, for example, or Delaware County electing this guy that got elected in the 12th Congressional District? Yes, I could see it. That's how far it's going.

And this is where the fault line is. We expect it in the cities. But the suburban areas like this 12th congressional district, that should be way out of character. All right, we got Guy Sharaki coming up. We have the Friday 5, All-Time Words, was our choice this week. I think I have the winner. We'll let Kirk decide that in my number one answer. Henry clearly won last week. Outside the rules, he gets going outside the rules. That's like a bonus here for that. I encourage that on this show. We encourage that, yes. What rules are you talking about? All right. Well, we just had International Family Day. So we're looking for the side question, a real or fictional family, good or bad. I would see the home alone crew, even though funny, are a pretty bad crew, not once but twice with old McCoy Calkin. And the one, the show I always liked that was subtle and nuanced, but was wonderful, was the middle. The middle, just unbelievable as far as just the family values without beating you over the head with it. What was the kid's name, Axel? Yeah, Axel. The mom, too. Yeah, Patricia Heaton. just a great show. I think it was on four or five years. And, you know, didn't get a blackbuster audience, but it had good audience. Henry, how about yours? I think you're selling the middle short. I think it was on for, I don't know, I want to say eight years. It was longer than that? I would keep it on for 10 years. Yeah, they could have kept going, maybe. Yeah, I'll take a few different ones off the board. How about a fictional one? How about a kiddie and Red Foreman from that 70s show? Sorry, sorry, I feel like someone's taking yours every day. But, yeah, I mean, they're an easy one. I mean, Top of raising their own two kids, you know, in the 70s. They take in one of Eric's friends hide, you know, has them live in their basement. And plus, they pretty much feed the entire friend group with all the kids downstairs all the time. So, yeah, I think they're good parents for kind of looking after that entire friend group. Another one I want to take off. How about the woods is, Earl and Coltita Woods? Being able to see that your son has this sort of star in him. to become one of the greatest golfers ever. And you push him, as far as you pushed him, to make him become one of, if not the greatest golfers of all time in Tiger Woods. I think that deserves some respect as a parent. And then, Dom, you're in New York. The NBA finals are on. I feel like I'd be remiss if I didn't shout out Rick and Sandra Brunson. Oh, that's it. Such a phenomenal player. Yeah, I can see them in a playpen. They had them flopping. All right, kid, I want to walk that. No, no, no. You don't want to walk. You want to flop, Brunson. That's what you're doing. Yeah, I mean, maybe Rick had taught him a few tricks about flopping, but I think it's cool that, you know, the Knicks on the precipice of, you know, winning their first championship in 50 years. It could be a father's son, you know.

duo like Rick Brunson's an assistant coach on the Knicks. Obviously Jalen's the star. It could be something pretty cool. So yeah, I got to give him props. Yes. That is it. Kirk, yeah, you got to outdo this guy. It's getting sicken here. I don't know if I can outdo it, but I'll give it a shot. So how about the most dysfunctional family in the 80s, late 80s, early 90s? Al and Pegg Bundy from Marywood Children. Yes, all-time. Yeah, Al Bundy is an all-time character. Okay, here's what we're going to do. 855, 839, 12, 10. That's how you get in. Guy Sharaki's with us next. Hit us with the all-time family. A lot of other people stopping by Henry's buddy. Somehow or another, E.J. and Tony, Henry calls, and he says, yeah, I'm not doing anything. But the president was just here. Yeah, but Henry McMaster, Mr. Machetes on the line. He's coming on the line. 855-839-12-10. Hey, y'all, I'm Maddie. And I'm Poodle. And together, we host the podcast Reality Gays. We are two ridiculous homosexuals who love nothing more than talking about reality television and tearing in a new one. So whether it's 90-day fiancé, love is blind, love after lock up, or any other trash TV show about lonely hearts looking for love. Your gay besties got you covered, y'all. New shows every week. Follow and listen to Reality Gays, wherever you get your podcast. Let's love.

I'm welcome back in. Dr. Gerdano with you this Friday coming to you from the Bloviator's extraordinary convention. Imagine 300 talk show host descending on poor Hofstra University so the kids could see up close and personal. What we do. Joining us is a guy who is ubiquitous on Talk Radio 1210 around the area, a talk show host among many hats that he wears, Guy Sharaki. Guy, we got to get you at one of these conferences. You'll see up close and personal what this is like on a full-time thing. Don't they always say you don't want to watch how the sausage is being used? There's a lot of sausage here with these guys, yeah, and women. Yeah, definitely. So, Guy, one of the things I talked about on Thursday a lot, this is the most relentless, ruthless, but very effective in his own way. I think he'll be stopped presidentially. Josh Shapiro, he chooses with 37.4 million, maybe more. To start his campaign, his TV ads, with little kids asking about the school breakfast program in Upper Dublin. I think he grew up in the district or around there. Otherwise, he's trying to steal property from people there. He's in the Fort Washington Elementary School for the ads and a couple of ads around this on Universal. school breakfast. You put up on Twitter. Yeah, isn't it great to know the kids in Gladwin, Chester Springs, and I guess you meant downtown, Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia, will have a school breakfast. Why that choice? What's he doing here? Why not start with the one thing I think we all agree? He did well, which was I-95. Well, I think what we're going to see from Josh Shapiro, as long as he feels he has the money, and as long as he feels comfortable in his lead, is he's going to run two campaigns at the same time. He's going to run messages that will help him get reelected, but that he also can sell in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and the Democratic presidential primary states. And the school breakfast, the universal school breakfast, checks a lot of boxes. It's about kids. It's about compassion. But it's also a big ask of the NEA and the AFT. And all the folks on the sort of the pro, it takes a village to raise a family group. So this lets him do two things. And he gives him something to talk about not only in Montgomery County, but it gives him something to talk about in other states. So I think you're going to see that strategy a lot where he talks to two audiences. The question is, as the campaign, he turns up, will he have to focus on things that people actually talk about at their kitchen tables here in Pennsylvania rather than in Des Moines, Iowa? Yeah, what's the counter? Does Stacey Garrity just let that go? Because it's malfeasance of a talk host, I think, not to talk about this, particularly the visuals, the kids. The Inquirer calls him a moderate. It checks that box.

What should she, I like her listening to her right now, Guy Sharaki, on AI. But I think she ought to do a listening tour with female athletes on the trans issue and the fact they can't even get a vote on that in the House. And that he seems, to your point about the presidential campaign, he seems more adamant on that issue than most to really get into that presidential lane that he's on board with it. No, I agree. See, that I think you and I are on the same page. Stacey Garrity should find the intersection of things that matter to her and things that Josh Shapiro has done to cater to Democratic Party presidential activists. And that is his extreme position on men and women's sports and all those related things. I think that's what she should do. Because to me, ultimately, this is what the narrative is on Josh. He is really a liberal in moderate clothing. And secondly, he's willing to change his position on issues, not because he's a moderate, but because he's willing to flip-flop. And the data centers is one of those issues, whereas by my estimate, he's on four positions. So on the school lunch thing, look, I think it's a throwaway line. talking about spending and his calcowing special interests. But I would stay in her lane, which is where Josh is really an extreme progressive. And it's been those things. It is men playing in women's sports. It's been his willingness to flip-flop on energy. His veto of school choice legislation, the legislature giving him the law he asked for on school choice and then his vetoing it. So I think it's sticking to her lane and pointing out hypocrisy. And the other stuff, yeah, when it comes in, take a shot at it. But she's just a laser focused on the things where seven out of ten people say, Stacey's right, Josh is extreme. Now, you have the way of Chester County in addition to other places, Josh, the guy, the AI stuff has really been a lane from me. I'm a bit of a Luddite on it, to put it mildly, because there's got to be something here where he sold. Philadelphia's open for business with this. He can't really get away from that. And the anxiety over AI, the cost factor, the lack of transparency, there's not much here. And the arguments are lame on the other side. The Chinese will beat us. It's going to cure cancer. Out in Chester County in places like that, is that a place where Republicans, conservatives can be in that lane and do some damage? Oh, very much so, and I think it's somewhere. My suggestion to Stacey and her campaign is that she should go everywhere. There's a project pending in the state. She started it up in Luzerne County where they're talking about it. There are projects being discussed here, not too far from Chester Springs, that have now gone through several rounds and several proposals. I think she should come in and talk about it, and again, it hits the sweet spot. She's listening to people. He's listening to donors. She's transparent. He adopts three or four positions. He was passionately for it. Then he hinted at some sort of pause. Then he wanted, then he had special favors. Then he had restrictions. But then he told folks like Amazon, the restrictions won't apply to you. The reality is he wants the best of all worlds. He wants the donor dollars.

So he says it to the Amazons of the world. Don't worry. Pay no attention to what I say. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. When I bloviate about AI and everything, don't worry because you're going to get special treatment. So again, I think this goes back to who Stacey is. Stacey's the transparent person on the ground. She's a straight shooter. And Josh has changed his position. and ultimately will do what it takes to win over donors or voters. He's in the wrong lane. He got over his skis and he's trying to tack back. And now his new position, which is four or five, depending on how you're counting, is you can have these facilities, but they have to generate their own energy. And if you'll generate with green energy, we'll give you tax incentives. The reality is you could put solar panels from here to Punx-Satoni. You can't generate. No data center is going to be built with those. So if you don't want data centers, that's fine. But the hypocrisy of Josh Shapiro is trying to appease everybody of saying, you can have your data centers. I'll give you tax breaks if you use green energy to do it. Well, you're not going to have green energy to do it. Exactly. Exactly. Talking with Guy Sharaki, a guy, a final area here too, Jeff Yass, who is the richest guy in Pennsylvania, one of the top 20 probably in the country, if not the world. The clarion call now is we're moving in on school choice, but what we have to do is we have to put it more into the political field. And the way that I would do it is I don't understand why more particularly conservatives. Don't bump it up there and they articulate it better in the way that you and I do, I think, how this is the civil rights issue. I mean, when you write and talk about Southwork in Philadelphia, but the rats and everything else, we have 17 schools that are going to close. And I think they should. Yes, steps in and says every kid in those schools, 500 or more easily, can apply to go to these great schools that have been vetted. for the full road through high school and everything covered, and it's under attack. Republicans are not doing a good enough job at articulating this. I don't know, the way Abraham Lincoln would or somebody like that, it's too technical, to just dollars and cents. It's got to be, they're standing in the schoolhouse door. That's what's going on it, particularly Josh Shapiro. No, I agree. Look, again, part of where I think Stacey will ultimately go as she's doing with data centers, I think there should be a listening tour with female athletes. I think there should be a listening tour on education. And the Harrisburg School Districts with 12% proficiency, the Southwark School with the rats and the backed up toilets where the kids are going to use a trailer until 2032. the Pittsburgh school district where they're now spending almost $34,000 a child to be cheaper to send them all to Pitt with tuition room and board. Look, we're on the side of the angels. We are now looking at generational poverty in large part because children are passed through a school system where they can't read and write, they can't function.

in the world and we're spending more and more money. Everyone's losing. The kids can't read. Taxpayers are not getting ROI and communities are being decimated. Look, I think it's one of those issues. And again, it flips the narrative. You and I've been around a long time. The narrative is that Republicans are the bad guys and don't care about poor people and don't care about minorities. And here we have the quintessential issue. We have the central issue where Republicans are saying, Help poor families, help African-American Hispanic families, give them opportunity. And by the way, we can do it for less money, for those of you're concerned about money. Look, I believe it's that kind of issue. And more importantly, I believe everyone running for office has to talk about this issue because it is a great divide and it didn't used to be. It was not a partisan divide. This is one of those issues now that when this education tax credit, which Pennsylvania has, the education tax credit, which is one of the oldest in the nation, now serving over 100,000 kids a year. It was passed with overwhelming bipartisan support. It's the Democratic Party that walked away from it. The Republicans are still there. I think she should do it. We're on the side of the angels. Those kids need to be rescued. And those moms and those dads and those grandparents need to know which party, look, which party wants there to be law and order? Which party wants there to be jobs? Which party wants cheap energy? And which party wants to make sure children are given access to a school that works? It's the Republican Party. It's not only good politics. It's the right thing to do. Absolutely. Where do we find all things, Guy Sharaki? Where do we go, Guy? So I changed my handle to Philadelphia. So Phila Freedom Guy. Okay. Phila Freedom Guy in this 250th anniversary, let Freedom ring. So Phila Freedom Guy, and you can find my columns in Broad and Liberty and Real Clear, Pennsylvania. My next preview, folks will see next week in Broad Liberty. I have the Ten Commandments of the Religion of the Left. So give something a teaser for folks to look out for. I get a guest, right? Is the side question? Oh, yeah, that's right. The side question today. International Parents Day, all-time parents, good or bad, real or fictional? I'm going to go very old school. The Brady's, Mike and Carol Brady. Very good one. Now, I went with the... One of our first blended families. Exactly. I went with the old school a bit, but the worst, in a fun way, fictional. The home alone parents, not once but twice. That's right. That's right. Although if you've been on those trips, you can relate to every once in a while saying we're, you take them through a castle, you take them through a castle in Ireland and you turn around and say, where's our son? Exactly right. Guy, thank you very much as always. And we'll be talking to you next week with the Ten Commandments of the Left. Thanks again. Take care. Thanks, Guy. Guy Sharaki here on Talk Radio 1210. Coming up, the Friday 5, Henry and I break down. Listeners sent this idea. Well, Henry, too. Five words that Henry says, or I say, or phrases, how do they get there? And what are the favorite five? That's next year on Talk Radio 1210.

Why does it feel like nobody really gives us the inside scoop? Join us on the Powers That Be, the podcast where insiders from Puck break down who has influence how they use it and what it actually means for you. New episodes every weekday. Listen to the Powers That Be, wherever you get your podcasts. Dear Dono, on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. Everyone, welcome in. I'm here, Danos show. Coming to you from Hempstead, New York, the big bloviator convention. A lot of words. Winston Churchill loved words. I do too, you. And some of you categorize how many times I use these words. I deny it. So this week, the Friday five, our all-time favorite words, fun words, or ones, somehow or another, we just got into the habit of saying a lot. Henry has his list. I'll cheat a little bit. My number one, like his Epstein last week on the Friday five, is two words, but I think you'll see why. That's the only exception. So, Henry, why don't you start? What's in fifth place with you? Yeah, well, I'm glad you also decided to maybe throw like a phrase or so in there, because I had to as well. I mean, I can't just, I can't just not say words. I have a few phrases I throw around a lot. So, but at number five, number five, it's got to be the way I greet everybody. Dude. Ah, that's a great one. Dude, I mean, how are you doing, dude? Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Not bro. How are you a dude guy, not a brode guy? Bro, it's almost, I don't want to say it's like buddy where it's like fighting words. Okay. But it just. I also want to be PG here. It's just not the word I would use to address somebody like, yo, bro. It's like, bro, I'm not your bro. It's, yeah, it's a little bit too much. Too familiar. So I agree with that. All right, my word is just more, my stuff is, except for number one, is more on air. And the word I get caught up and saying, and I like it because it's a good filler on air. And, you know, three hours, you're talking, et cetera. I do drop that in. Quite a bit. I've tried to curtail it, but I have to admit, you can catch me on et cetera. Yeah, you're like, Yul Brenner and the king of me. Yeah. Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. All right, bro. Go right ahead. All right, thanks, dude. Number four. Yeah, it usually follows when I am talking to a dude. I'll be like, oh, dude, that's sick. I don't care if that's like a term that went out of style like 20 years ago. But if there's something cool or appealing to me that you've done or you're showing me, it's sick. It's awesome. It's sick. It's not, you know, it's not coming down with the flu, but it's just so nasty that it's sick. You know what I'm saying? Absolutely. I know what you're saying. Yes. Mine is, and I don't say it as much recently, but I'm going to try to go back to it. It's an homage to the great Irv Homer. Got a lot of mywitch out of this over the years in Talk Radio, Henry.

boggles that boggles the mind he was always something was boggling and it's just a convenient thing that really helps i haven't done it but i'm telling you here and now expect is here etc and boggled what's your third yeah it's boggling my mind right now yeah so this is where one of one of the phrases you know comes in maybe an idiom so to speak uh Your guess is as good as mine. When I have no clue and I answer a question or I simply just do not know the answer, I got to throw it back to the person who I'm talking to. It's, hey, hey, man, your guess is as good as mine on this one. I have no idea. A lot of phraseology here. Okay. Yeah, a lot of defense mechanisms. My third is a clean one and I love saying it because it sounds smarty pants and it. We're going to be in this era for quite a while with AI, and it's Luddite. I'm a Luddite on this. I love the Luddite. The looms. They sing to me in England. Luddite. The Luddite. How about your second? I don't even know how to spell that. L-U-D-D-E. Oh, it's simple enough then. Okay. All right. Number two, it's along the same lines as sick, but I feel like I reserve it more for new foods I try, which is pretty, you know, pretty often in my case. It's banging. You know, this show every day getting to come to work, it's banging. Oh, I'm glad to hear that. This new restaurant I tried last Tuesday, it was banging. I got a margarita pitcher for $20. What's not banging about that? Yeah, I just think it's... Wait a minute, using it as a question now, wait a minute, you're going too far. What's not banging about that? The banging thing is a little bit different. But I have to ask you, that doesn't seem as contemporary people your age saying banging, is it? I think it is. Yeah. Maybe, again, maybe it more is like the sick thing where maybe it went out 20 years ago. But I do feel like it has worked its way back into a lot of Gen Z vernacular. All right. So that was your third, right? That was number two for me. Oh, that was number two. That's right. You went first. So my second, of course, and again, Robert of Ben Salem and others have nailed me on it. I just like the sound of it. I don't know how it started, but I love it. I'm not giving it up, even if it sounds too pedantic. ubiquitous that's ubiquitous you're driving along listening to the show you need uh google you need something you need somebody to tell you ubiquitous i'm going to stick with it that is my second place so now We are at the grand finale here, the Friday 5. And by the way, we're open to you making a suggestion on that. A lot of these just come up, spur of the moment, listeners like them every Friday, a list of five. We've done the five most attractive presidents ever, for example. Henry won last week. I have to admit defeat. How did Epstein become your number one answer last week? It was just out of the box. It's people you'd never want to, you know, be able to take a picture with. Yes. For the most part, did handsome people. But then I thought, yeah, getting a picture with him, it kind of ruins your life. So, yeah, don't want to be in a picture with Jeff. You know, and I've thought about that. All the people that I've taken pictures with are taking them with me over the years, you know, do any of them come back and bite you particularly? I can't imagine one.

But God knows you take people, particularly selfies now, it's ubiquitous. All right, there we go. Put it to work it in. Thank you. And the number one answer, what is your number one go to? You're going to continue to be banging with it, Henry McMaster. What is it, Henry? Yeah, so I was made aware that I actually say this quite a bit, you know, just a few weeks ago. But when you ask me to do something that I definitely want to do or definitely am into doing, I'll be like, yeah, twist my arm. I'll go. I mean, you really don't have to. You want to go out and grab some beers? Yeah, twist my arm. I'm not saying now, I'm going to go out and have a good time with you. So, yeah, I feel like I've been saying twist my arm maybe a lot more than I thought I did until I was pointed out. And then I'm like, since I've noticed, it's like, yeah, I say that pretty frequently when someone suggests something to do. All right. So it seems to me there's an alcohol trend here with $20 pictures. Well, I mean, yeah, I'm in my 20s. What else am I supposed to do? They're going to be through. All right. My number one answer, I am such a stickler on this. There's only one right answer. If someone says to you, thank you, it's you're welcome. The whole phrase, not just welcome or right. Or, yeah, Jack, or thanks, or boss or tip of the fact. Just say you're welcome. What's so hard about saying you're welcome? Why did that go out of vote? Because I'd rather say no problem. It's not a problem. It's no problem. But you're welcome for saying that. I welcome it. I'm gratified by saying that. It's much more of a bigger deal than no problem. I guess, yeah. Okay. It just, it feels maybe that's one of those things that's like lost in translation nowadays. It's just no problem and you're welcome. It's kind of the same thing for me. I get it when you say it like that. Yeah, it does make me want to say you're welcome more, but. Something about no problem. It just rings true. All right. That's our Friday five as far as our five words, too. There are others. You can always critique us. You can always hit us with that. Henry, is there one with listeners calling or anything else that really bugs you? Is there a word out there in talk radio? Or you know what? Sports talk radio. I listen to a lot, and I know that you do too. When I hear them, he's standing on his head as a goalie. It's almost an instant tune-out. Any number, he's got to step up, just constant. There's nothing new there. Yeah, there are a lot of overplayed cliches. I don't know if I can nail down just one. I mean, well, like someone like, oh, I could tell you one, where say the Phillies are really beaten up on an opponent, say it's like 10-0 and like the fourth inning, right? So there's always some sort of dad out there who's going to turn and look and say to you, got to save some runs for tomorrow. Oh, there you go. Absolutely. Oh, my gosh. Yeah.

Yeah, baseball seems to lead itself to cliches, maybe more than the other sports. Totally. Totally. All right, that's our Friday 5 here every Friday around this time. We're a little bit early today because I'm here at the convention. The bloviation words are being, oh, my goodness. And I have to moderate a big panel on the ethics of talk radio and things of that nature. Control 5 raging talk show. They won't be raging. But I've seen all kinds of things happening here. Richie O'ie would tell you the same thing. So coming up. We have Victoria Coates today at 2 o'clock. We'll talk with Victoria Coat, Dr. Coates, about the current situation in Iran, but there's a whole lot more out there. The very best that we can bring you anywhere. Harry Hurley, the voice of the Jersey Shore, should stop by. He worked for President Trump, casino industry, knows Trump very well. We'll see what he's up to. But send me some suggestions, please. Friday 5, we're always looking for something, just a little bit of fun, just a little bit of tweak. It's kind of like progressive women gone wild, just a little standalone from that. Got a little more update too. On this guy who's apparently going to be the congressman from New Jersey, there's almost now a full investigation order to people saying even before he gets into Congress, there might be a committee that investigates him. because he was the star witness for the blind sheik who murdered Americans blowing up the World Trade Center. All that straight ahead. Here's how you get in 855, 839, 1210, AT&T, and Verizon Wireless. You just push Pound 1210. Dom Gerdano's show on Talk Radio 1210, WPA. Hey there, it's Jill Schlesinger.

All right, it is Dom Time. Welcome in, everyone, 855, 839, 1210, the voice of the Jersey Shore, someone who knows President Trump really well, work for him, casino industry. Harry Hurley will be with us. But the side question today, International Parents Day, all-time parents, good or bad, real or fictional. Let's start up with the Earl Tacconi on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Earl, good afternoon. What do you have today? Well, Dom, first off, you were talking about population control and with mosquitoes. I'm trained as a pathologist, so I know a little something about this. What they're doing is nothing new. They used to do it by treating fish eggs and treating fish in order to keep invasive species of fish from coming around. And recently they started with the sterilization of mosquitoes. And basically what it works with is they sterilize the males. The males have sex with the females. The females lay eggs that will not grow, and that helps keep the populations under control for invasive species. So, Earl, you just say that so matter of fact. You could be in every science fiction movie out there, and all of a sudden, something goes wrong. Oh, the fact that Bill Gates is behind this scares the hell out of me. I mean, you know, trust me. You know, I understand how it works. I understand why they do it. You know, I'd rather see that than having them spray all sorts of pesticides all over the place. And, you know, it's a, you know, a very good program to do. But, you know, when you have, you know, Dr. Evil, you know, going around and, you know, owning all the mosquitoes and owning the patents to the processes, you know, yeah, you should be afraid. Be very afraid. What's your side, Earl? My side would be the worst parents in the world. They'd be King Laces and Queen J. Costa. They had a baby boy, and prophecy said that the boy would be nothing but trouble. So the father went and took the baby and left him on the side of a mountain to die. Shephyr went and found the baby, took him home, raised him. The boy grew up, went back, killed the king, and married the queen. Basically killed his father, married his mother. That would be Oedipus. All right, pretty nice. You know, Dan would say, Henry, why do people still read Shakespeare? Note it Danism. Have you read any Shakespearean plays, Henry? Not since high school, no. Well, that's okay. He says even from high school, he avoided reading them. Gary in Newtown on Talk Radio 12, Ted. Hey, Gary, you have to do. Good afternoon, Dom. Henry. Nice to talk to you today. I told the two producers here, and they maybe said, oh, come on now, that we have such interesting callers that we have people that imitate them. Waited to hear this one producer's cadence. I think it's very Joe of extant a little bit later here. And before we get to it, happy New Year, Henry. Thank you, very much. Of course. Of course. What do you have, Gary? Now, Dom, your answer to that, what I said, Happy New Year should have went, oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God.

Oh, God. Only two weeks left for the Happy New Year's stick. Tell that to Phil and Del where we're doing everybody else. Only a Joe of Columbus. Two weeks you got left on it, yes. Oh, God. I'd like you said it by accident. The worst parents in the world in recent history would be Wendy and Marty Byrd. I can't imagine what those two kids are going to grow up with or grow up like. They're going to be monsters. Well, we saw the daughter. Uh-oh, Kirk, is that a spoiler? You didn't see the end of it. It's still a spoiler. We're going to spoil it. It's our rule. Come on. It's been over for like three or four years. Look at the daughter. The daughter already is a monster. No doubt. No doubt. That's my answer for today. All right, yeah. That actress, Henry, are you fan of the show and Kirk? Because I just couldn't believe she was that good. I would see it. Because even though it's fiction, I hate that woman just was incredible. No one could be that ruthless and calm about it, but she was. Yeah, I watched the show for a couple of seasons. I never finished it, but I don't care if you spoiled it or not. I don't know if we'll ever go back to it. I think it had staying power. You know, it had a low period in there, but it made it to the end. And that first year of it was brilliant stuff. Just. Out of the box. Brilliant stuff. Okay. More calls coming up. If Harry Hurley finds our studio, we will have him a lot to talk about with him. A couple of headlines out there. Mikie Sherrill now $20 million for people that are here illegally. Why all of a sudden is she adding that money to it and talking about affordability? She's doing it. She's in trouble with the left for sending in the state police, even though she was very measured. And it was the right thing to do. And how does a suburban area, a very suburban area? It's not a city. They're not big cities there. Elect or nominate this Democrat who is just a stone-called terrorist aficionado. The evidence, 1993, is Buddy the Blind Cheek. What happened to suburban think? All right, maybe they wouldn't vote for the Republican. They might vote for a moderate Democrat. But there is never, it was so rare to see this. Now in Jersey and somewhat in the Philadelphia suburbs, it's every day we see the farthest candidates imaginable. Guy Sharaki and I have spent a lot of time talking about it. It is the story. And we see it every day. Oh, by the way, speaking of the Bucks County Suburbs, Politico, big story today. Guess who President Trump, four people he's going to go after next? One of them, Brian Fitzpatrick. Oh, I want to have a blow-by-blow account of that, okay? And maybe even the fiancé.

All right, phone lines, 855, 839, 1210. We'll talk with Harry Hurley. We have Dom's Money Melody still coming up. 855-839-1210. Dom Jierdano, weekdays, noon till 3. From Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. Tom Jirdano on Talk Radio 1210. All right, it is downtime and kind of an annual tradition catching up on everything. The Boys of the Jersey Shore. Harry Hurley with us in studio. And Harry, you're fresh off doing here at this bloviating convention. I'd say you're on the low side of the bloviation. You need to bloviate up a little bit more. But you... You did a one-on-one with a guy who is a doctor and a pro wrestler. And the big story here was, and I thought everybody, he was too much mollifying it. How much is talk radio like pro wrestling? I think I've told you when I broke in, you know, you lose your voice occasionally a little thing. I didn't know that. They said you're going to have to use steroids. This was at WWDB. I'm thinking... This is pro wrestling. We had to do it. Yeah, no, I didn't get injected. I wasn't, no, they were talking to oral steroids. No, no. Yeah, for the prednisone. Yeah, exactly. For getting your voice back. Well, it sounds like that you were doing stuff like that. A couple times. Yeah. Yeah. Not recently, but a couple times. Yeah. So how is it like pro wrestling? What did he? Yeah. Well, what was really cool about it was, first of all, he's a great guy. And Dom is talking about Dr. Asa Andrew. He's a real credit to our industry. He's a medical doctor. He's a talk show host. And he is a TNA professional wrestler. So I wanted to grab a vibe of everybody would talk about, you know, how does a doctor do this and really leave wrestling? Not real relatable. I asked him, how does being a professional wrestler... help you be a medical doctor. Right. Be a talk show host. I flipped the script and he loved it. He loved it. Absolutely. Yeah. And he did talk about, you know, he made this argument, which is true. When we watch a story on TV or a film or whatever, there's a script. So what if wrestlers have scripts too? Yeah. Tom Cruise knows if he's going to be riding on the wing of the plane. Right. You know, and they script it or jumping off a building. So it is. It's entertainment. And of course, President Trump. has been involved in major league wrestling the theatrics of it whatever I think it was WrestleMania 15 or something well when I worked for him we had WrestleMania twice okay in Atlantic City I believe WrestleMania 4 and 5 in Atlantic City Boardwalk Hall and and as you referenced Tom

President Trump has gone out into the ring. He's been involved. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just don't mess up the hair. He got suplex. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Did that look real to you? You're up close on that? Look good to me. I'm not going to say. All right. So we're talking with Harry Hurley. Harry, Mikie Sherrill now, in my sense, what she's done this morning. We led with it. I know you were here, but you might lead with it yesterday, if you knew about it. She's really up the ante with people that are here illegally, spending now $20 million plus on all these defenses and still talking about affordability. And yet, I think she's doing it because she really took shots for doing the right thing, sending the state police in. It is. It's an overreaction to her losing cred from what she did. But let's not forget. the arsonist who then becomes the fireman, who then goes back all woke and broke, doesn't get any credit. This is a disaster. Governor Murphy never would have done this. He was very, very leftist center, but he wasn't all out crazy like these hard leftists that are pushing for illegals more than they do for their citizens. It's terrible. By the way, you know who's at Delaney Hall, right? Oh, yeah, exactly. I mean, in some cases, we are talking about some of the worst of the worst that if they weren't. in Delaney Hall as residents would have to be incarcerated. So they call for this to be closed. Right. This is all performative. Now, I admire you were able, I can't say for Dom Giordano Day, we were offered a guy that's under discussion. I'll tell you during the next break, I have to save it up for listeners. It's two weeks away. And I want to get your opinion because you put on shows and I value it. And I'm up in the air about it. I'm leaning toward doing it. It is very iffy when you hear the name. Okay. But if I were to say something, it could move you? Oh, yeah, it could move me to do it. I'm moving there. Okay. I'm shocked how many people agreeing. Of course you should do that. Well, you know, I had and still have a fast friendship with Governor Murphy. Well, right. I come from a school where you can disagree with someone politically, and you can still be friends. He disagreed with me politically, but we never let... our political differences get in the way of two people that liked each other. So you mean somebody like Larry Krasner? I could have in a studio like this and we wouldn't jump over the table and sign of a nanosecond. Well, you're a teacher by trade. You're an educator. You're a civilized good man. In fact, I would dare say you're a great man. I know how much you disagree with him. And I do too, as you know, I write about him a lot. Yeah. But you could do it. Okay. So what's Phil Murphy up to is where I was going? You know, being quiet. There's the next chapter. He's not talking about it yet. I think after you serve eight years as the chief executive in your state, you just want to cool it for a little bit. I think he's done a really good job.

just going away. Yeah, and you know, there's been, not pretty much. I wish Christy would do it. Well, Christy's a disgrace. So it shows you, I'm a conservative, but Chris Christie is an absolute disgrace. No, he's not a conservative. No, he's not, but he's a disgrace. But Phil Murphy governed, and you can agree or disagree with him, and he left. And some cheap shots have been made towards him. and he hasn't responded. He's a very good man. I do know we're going to hear from him. I don't know exactly with what he'll be doing, though. Ah, okay, more to come. So, Harry, we've around the Philadelphia suburbs, and I think you've written about this at least a little bit. My big contribution has been the last 10 years, how the Philadelphia suburbs went from moderate Republicans who just wanted stability, fix the potholes, the lawns, the whole thing, to now severe progressivism. But Jersey. has now nominated a sure winner, unless something happens, a guy who is a terrorist buddy at best and worse, a terrorist himself for leaning, Al-Qaeda, front group, 1993, bombing, even members of Congress saying, we're going to look at this guy, there might be a cause to not seat him. That would be, and I would agree, I would agree with that, because I know Andrew McCarthy. I want to say Andrew McCarthy is a friend of mine, but I won't go the whole route, but he is. he knows all about, and we're talking about a gentleman by the name of Hamawi. Right. Hamilie, at best, testified voluntarily, was not subpoenaed. Andrew McCarthy has confirmed this, who was the assistant U.S. attorney at the time of the blind shakes trial. Let's on Dom time, on WPHT, let's not bury the lead. This guy was a witness. for the blind shake. At the very minimum, he has terrible judgment and anti-American tendencies that should absolutely deny him. And look, he is going to win. If he's not knocked out before the November general election, he's going to win. We saw this with the Mikie Sherrill. She's a progressive and maybe even more. But the woman is a communist that won the special election. Correct. What happened to the Jersey suburbs? We know it's a blue state. What is this secret sauce that has them? Well, is it just hatred of Jews with this guy? They like that? Well, there's a ton of anti-Semitism. But let's not forget, every 10 years we do the redistricting, we do the census. Right. Democrats were very successful. There's two maps. I don't want to do too much in the weeds for the Dom show, but there's two maps. Republicans do a map, Democrats do a map. They never win. Because it's always a tie. Right. They have a tie breaker, which is usually a retired judge or somebody like that. And the party that's in power has the edge. Democrats very effectively redistrict. I would even say gerrymandered districts in New Jersey big time. That was a district that had a lot of conservatives and moderates. Not enough to win.

So these are now, the Democrats are doing such a terrible job in recruiting the worst hard left candidates, socialists and communists that we've ever seen. And when they win the Democrat primary, the good Democrats and independents, they still vote for the Democrat. So they pick someone that's infinitely more radical than they are. This, though, is someone who buddied up with someone who killed us and wants to kill more of us. He was a witness. The communists in Zohran Mamdani's bad enough. Yeah, you can just disagree with that. Right. But this stuff is we have to be armed to prevent this. The difference between that other stuff that you said being terrible and we can disagree with it, this is disqualifying. Are you doing any more one-on-ones? Can you stay a couple more minutes? I can stay. All right. Harry Hurley in studio with us. The two producers here, we've struck up a fast friendship with them. I've met both. Yes, their aspiration is someday they might be able to live in Manhattan. And I'm asking them, how much do you need to live in Manhattan successfully? They said 100,000. That's for starters. These days. Comrade Zohran Mamdani. Yeah. Wow. A lot more. All right. More with Harry Hurley here. 855-839-1210. Don't forget the side question. All-time families. All-time mom and dad. Real or fictional. We'll get yours next on Talk Radio 1210. Lemonade. Fresh squeeze.

So, Henry, you know who the person is. Harry Hurley telling us chapter and verse here. Yes, what would be wrong at that? You've got to bring that guy in. We're not going to say the name yet, but is that an unimpeachable witness, Henry? He's your witness. What would you ask Harry Hurley? Oh, I heard everything I needed to down the line. Oh, okay. You listen in? That's great producing by you. Yes, yeah. So you think he made a strong case, huh? Yes. Oh, absolutely. How about Greg Stocker, though? You think he'll be on board? That's what we were discussing. I was discussing with Jim earlier. We're on the fence, maybe. I don't know. I think from a content perspective, yes, absolutely. Mine is not an equal analogy, but it's pretty close. Yes. I did an interview a number of years ago, and I will tell you, it was very well received. And there was no content off, you know, out of bounds. Well, on Dom Day, too, Henry, as you know and Harry, we have panels. So this year it would be this guy, if you can imagine, this firebrand, young African-American guy. You've got to write something about him, Alante McCauley. Love to. He stands up every week at City Council. So wild of the two minutes you get. They cut it down to a minute to try to stop him. There you go. A compliment. Roji Erdano, who's never spoken before on Talk Radio 1210, but Henry signed her to an exclusive deal. All right. And Pastor Bill Deblen, who travels the world and releases people from Hamas. That's just the opening panel. Wow, wow, wow. But putting this guy on it, you should do it. Yeah, okay. You should do it. Okay. All right. So Harry Hurley with us here. We are at Hofstra. And Harry, the... The thing I noticed coming up here, maybe you can explain. You take the Long Island Railroad. The windows are not as clean as Amtrak, but you can see out of them. New Jersey Transit refuses to clean their windows. Now, I'm waiting. If they clean it for the FIFA crowd, then what about the rest of us? How could you run a state? Can you imagine somebody? That would be like when Gavin Newsom cleaned up. parts of where a tour was happening. Yes. It's a total fake out. But isn't that a mark of somebody who's on the right side of things if they see something that's not clean and they're in a position of power? They'll say, but sir, we don't do it.

I think Trump's like that. Yeah. Have you looked at the reflect. I'm not a ballroom guy. I get, now, you've been in casinos and all that. Maybe you like it. You need a ballroom. Okay. This is only because it's Trump. You think if Obama was building a ballroom, it would be in court and judges would be saying, you can't do it. You need a ballroom. You've been to the White House. I've been to the White House. They have events with heads of state. Yeah. Intense. on the grass. The ladies' heels are digging three inches into the grass. It's horrible. And just for the security, how many times does our president have to be shot or near shot? And he's still going back to the correspondence dinner. And I guess they're not announcing the venue yet, but it is one of the only... that can fit, you know, that can fit the crowd, it's probably going right back to where it was. I like what he's done with the reflection pool, the reflective pool. And they're giving him criticism about that. Yeah, exactly. You see, there was media coverage, legacy media, where they said it's the wrong color blue. Well, how was the rusty gray? Right. Oh, it was unbelievable these people. So the cleanup type of thing. It's great. By the way, do you know it was also leaking thousands of gallons of water a day? Absolutely. It had to be done. Yeah. Other presidents, it doesn't seem to move them. They didn't have the eye. The Capitol had fallen into that kind of lack of safety, disrepair, et cetera. You know what my former boss does not get credit for? He does not get credited for his attention to detail and his eye for what. thing should be. They're complaining about everything he does. I think that history hallway with the presidents, with Joe Biden as an auto pen, is fantastic. You know the minute that Trump is gone. Oh, yeah. It's coming down. But it's fantastic. It's appropriate. But that's classy. Even a gold. Oval Office now. Trump is a showman. He is a four-diamond, four-star hotelier. I worked for him. And he is cleaning the place up, and it needs it. Yeah. So what else you're talking about at the shore of this year? We start to head to the Jersey Shore. What's going on? You have the mayor suing people who, I think, just followed the lead of the evidence. Well. This is going to be very interesting. What the mayor is trying to achieve will be very hard for him to prevail, but he has a heck of a case. His story is that there was a prosecutor who wanted to become the attorney general of the state who on his back and the back of his wife and their best friend got indicted only because of who they are, not what they did. Again, it's going to be hard because a grand jury did indict.

you know, what are you going to say? And then after the mayor prevailed at trial and the mayor smoked the prosecutor at trial, the county prosecutor did dismiss the charges against his wife and against the school principal. He has a case, though. I'll leave it at that. All right. We're talking with Harry Hurley here on Talk Radio 1210, 855-839-1210. Let's go to Joe in Somerton on Talk Radio 1210. Question for Harry. Go right ahead, Joe. Yeah, Harry, this is Joe. Hi, John. I just got a question of why conservatives all around. I watch Fox News all the time, and I listen to WPHP, and the conservatives constantly say their left-wing liberal lunatics. Okay, now just so you know, I'm in the ex-Nabby Special Ops. Good for you. Thank you for your service. I'm farther right than anybody at MAGA. But my question is, is do youth know what a left-wing liberal lunatic is? What is a left-wing liberal lunatic? Now, my perception is if you would tell people, tell the youth, tell the people who are unsure, that these people are communist would resonate more than a Marxist. The left-wing liberal lunatic Marxist. These people don't know who Karl Marx is. They don't know who mouncing tongue is. They don't know anything. Well, Joe, we're catching. Think about it, Joe. They don't bring him. Joe, we're catching up to that because before people were even talking about these lefties being socialists and communists, it was only a discussion about the difference in the philosophy of governance. When you look at what would be called a hard left or a left wing or a left wacko, whatever it was, Joe, that you were saying some of that would be based on if you look at something that's a very serious issue. and the Democrat takes some absurd position in terms of identity politics and this goofy stuff that they focus on. The candidate, James Talarico, and Texas, six genders. I mean, give me a break. Thank you, Joe. Thanks very much. So where does Mikie Sherrill come down in this? And, Harry, we haven't talked, at least in person or on the air. I do our coverage. You have great guys that do it there when we have a big election night. Yep. We flew back from Naples, if you can imagine, three airports. And I was in the chair at 6 o'clock that night. Good for you. And I want to get Jack Ciattarelli on the show at Mulligan's. I don't want him to be in the wasteland suddenly he's out there. How in the world? Did we come down 14 points? Is it still your contention, I think, that we had the shutdown, the government shutdown. That affected more people than we thought? It isn't just that. But it is an accumulation award. Right. I have accepted the fact that Mikie Sherrill got more than 500,000 more votes than Jack Ciattarelli. That's unbelievable. Jack Ciattarelli beat the sitting governor in his reelection bid. Yes.

In my county, Atlantic County, Mikie Sherrill trounced Jack Ciattarelli in my county. An assembly member left office that never should have been gone, I think just got whipsawed and caught up in all of that. This was a butt-wopin. You got to take it. I think more than anything, President Trump, when he's on the ballot, comes within six points of Kamala Harris. Nobody's going to tell me that one year later, he's so unpopular that Mikie Sherrill is going to win by almost 600,000 votes. I think there's a difference between when Trump is on the ballot and when he's not on the ballot. Well, absolutely now. You get none of the benefit of being Trump and you get all the downside. And as I see it, Harry Hurley with us here, the big thing with the midterms, we're getting every good break in the world. Supreme Court right decision on redistricting and the voter rights act. That's the only reason the Republicans have a chance. Exactly. But here we have a guy. I don't know him, but my instincts are not good toward Tom Kane, Jr. I don't want to see him as the dad was the governor. He got into this office. But Harry, the guy hasn't been there since March. That's true. You have another helicopter pilot. Let us play. You may have heard this. But for listeners, Henry, we have Rebecca Bennett, the first part. This is the woman is opposing him. And I give her a real shot against him because she's got something going for her. Hatred. Maga people. That's all she has. She's not the Republican. But I don't know what he has. Here's what Bennett said, and she's bold about this. She quit church. She was in the military because you had Trump voters there. Thank you all again so much for coming out. I'm happy to take questions. Let's go win this. Thank you.

As a former progressive Dem, now a moderate. Yeah. I loved hearing you say that you're a patriot, but what are you going to do about that being a right-coded way of presenting yourself? I will say, I use that word intentionally, and the reason that I do it is because... So I grew up in the Presbyterian Church, and after Trump got elected, I stopped going to church for the first time of my life. Because I was like, I cannot sit in this room of people. At the time, I was stationed somewhere that was pretty conservative. I was still in the military time. I was like, I cannot sit in this church full of people that voted for Trump. And then ultimately, I decided they do not get to the side what Christianity looks like. And to me, it's the same thing about they do not get to the side what patriotism is. You do not get to wrap yourself in the flag while you were literally murdering Americans in broad daylight. The last part is unimaginable. Yeah, it's too bad. Here's the point. They have two things. The media lets them say the word affordability. So they have some marquee outside. And they have two forms of hatred. And one of them is even more potent than Trump in some quarters. Benjamin Netanyahu derangement syndrome and Trump derangement syndrome. What is it you would advise or you're seeing that Republicans can put up as the reason to be excited to vote other than... They're getting some advantage here by these redistrictings. Dom, great question. Let me just put a quick comment in about Tom Cain Jr. Yes. Because he's a friend of mine. Okay. Tom Kane, Jr. has been in tough elections when he was at his best. Right. This district is not a hard and fast Republican district. He, under normal circumstances, he would win a fairly close election every time. This is not that. It's a midterm election. The Trump derangement syndrome. You're right. The anti-Semitism, whatever you want to call it, Benjamin Netanyahu syndrome. And you have this mystery illness that if I was his life coach, because he's got great family, he's a great guy, they should have explained what's going on. We just hear, and the governor came out, Governor Kane, to say that my son has an illness. He is going to fully recover, and he will be fine to serve. I wish they would have just told us what is the illness? Because in public service, absent explanation, justification, the beating that they've been taking by not being there to cast votes and how closest... Margin is this is a very big deal. I don't want to say this, but I'm going to say it on the Dom show. If the election were today, he would lose. Yeah, I agree with you. And he shouldn't lose. Despite a woman, this hateful, this blatant. I'm always going to win. Right. It doesn't matter. Graham Platner could win. Right. It doesn't matter. Democrats want power in the worst way.

to a level we've never seen before, they used to take their own trash out. Now they will support, you hear the minority leader of the United States. Yes, I've endorsed Graham Platner. Now, they know this guy has said women are partly responsible for being raped. He wore an SS Nazi tattoo. for his whole life and says he didn't know what it was, but his ex-girlfriend says she knew what it was. So she knew what it was. Oh, he went through the whole history with her, right? He told a military guy that put his life on the line. He should have died. And you're telling me, not only is this the best the Democrats can do in Maine, but that this guy still could win, I still say, I think Republicans are playing this smart. Democrats are getting all this out. Yeah, that part. But let's go back to the midterms, though. But it's the same thing. I don't know what I would advise. And we had Mike Johnson on. It was a great interview with him. He said, Newt Gingrich said, they're crazy. We're not. Okay, that's a starting point. But we need some more. We need to drive people out. We do. Well, here's the thing. It's tough. The party in power. historically loses seats every midterm. Only September 11th was that not a fact. Right. So you're going to lose seats to begin with. You covered the most important thing. Had we not won that redistricting in Virginia and elsewhere, Virginia was going to go from 6-5 to 10 to 1. That was going to be lights out. It's over. If the election were held today, Democrats would win the House and Republicans would hold the Senate with losses. It would not be 52-48, 51-49, maybe even 50-50. But I guess, you know, if you're a Republican, you've got to hope this Graham Platner is their nominee. Well, that, that, but back to the House. I still think it's doable. It is doable. It is doable. But I don't know what the delays. But keep in mind what you're asking for. in a president's second term, you're asking for something that's never happened before. Because I don't count September 11th. Right. That was once in a hundred years supernatural. You're asking for something under normal circumstances that never happens to happen this time. And why would that be? Well, is that a motivator for Trump? Get that in his ear. You know what? This is something never done before you can go out there and sell it. And look, he's willing to go to all. He's at his best when he's out. He loves going out there and campaigning. This is going to be a Herculean effort because they're going to have money. And they don't even have to have a message. They're just going to tell you Trump, Trump, Trump. You know, every time they bring up, and I'm not trying to go to Graham Platner as a delection. But every time. One of these Democrats, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie, anyone. Oh, no, you take care of the oligarchs. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, I haven't waited into that yet. They don't want to even talk about him. They're just okay with him being the nominee because they just want to win. All right. Well, I hope Tom Cain gets well and I hope he says that. And he does it soon because you're right. That's the only way. If he loses, we lose the House. How do you like that? Oh, without a doubt. Yeah.

I mean, think about how I feel. You've got that situation. Brian Fitzpatrick and I, we meet at a duel at 50 yards right now. But I'm still in the camp. We've got to get him over the finish line. Absolutely. That could be the seat. Yes. That loses. But I have to tell you, I'm weakening with this guy almost every day. But keep in mind, if you don't go with him, they're going to win. Exactly. And we don't want that. Trump gets impeached on day one with pre-filed articles of impeachment. It will be a disaster. Investigations start in early January. President Trump won't be able to govern if Democrats win the House. Exactly right. All right, Harry, where do we find you and where do we find the stuff that you write? Well, appreciate that. WPG TalkRadio.com. and that's where all of our digital content is. I'm on WPG Talk Radio 95.5 FM. Thank you, Harry. Good stuff. Thanks, Tom. We brought it together here. Dom time. Thank you for that advice. I may have to take that to Greg Stocker. Well, Harry Hurley, come on now. He's going. Please give him my example. Oh, I will. Yeah. I mean, I interviewed. If that guy works. I interviewed someone, we'll call it, in this club. Well, and this guy's bringing food, too. So there you go. Good food. Good. All right. Thanks, Harry Hurley. Coming up, your calls. And we're going to talk with the two great guys producing the show here today. A little bit of their background. They may or may not be Knicks fans. They're kind of all over the place. They know there might be hatred coming through. But I think one guy is a FIFA fan or soccer fan. That will all be coming up on Talk Radio 1210. Let's... Henry, just give me a moment on that. So, oh, I do have it, Henry. Oh, I did produce this myself here and put the stuff together in the right spot. Let's talk about the big event we have coming up with Diane Cardano, attention, Pennsylvania and New Jersey home sellers over 60 because the silver tsunami is not ending. It's here right now.

It's this coming Tuesday, June 9th, in Fort Washington. We have wine and great appetizers and a meet and greet with me, Dom Gerdano, at 5 p.m. The seminar starts at 6. Learn how to prepare early. Protect your equity. Avoid costly mistakes. and create your home selling game plan before the market gets even more competitive. Every attendee gets a free copy of one of Diane's home selling books.

No, Henry, stop spreading that news. I'm looking at two guys here at Hofstra joining us. I'll take more of your calls coming up. Dom Giordano's show. That was really insightful stuff from Harry Hurley. He was really a great friend, great host, and laid it out of the Tom Cain thing, mystery illness, got to tell us what it is and he's got to win. All right, I am being produced today by Jack Ehrlich and Holden Wilinson. Was that anywhere near close, Holden? Very close. It's Willemson. Okay. I won't pronounce it again. I'll just call you holding. Now, these two guys are here at Hofstra, which is an unbelievable program. By the way, do you know the name Joe Sebelia? Is he really a name here or not? He went to Hofstra. Never heard of Joe Sebelia? I've heard the name mentioned, definitely. Yeah, I've got to say. I've heard the name mention. It's not something on the top of my head. All right. He produced at Talk Radio 1210, was my producer and a couple of others. Um, I'm asking people here, and thank God, Henry, you can jump in. These guys are not brash Nick fans wanting to come down and to spoil our arenas. They seem to be a little bit. One guy, holding, you're a bandwagon jumper. So why do you like to Nick? Is there Nickmania here in Long Island? Undoubtedly, there is Nickmania in Long Island. I think also around New York City. There's orange and blue everywhere. My favorite team are the Charlotte Hornets, unfortunately, and they don't, because my mom is originally from Charlotte. Okay, see, everybody's got a reason. That was fine. I checked him out. So, yeah, and Jack, how about you? Yeah, I mean, so what I would say is that at the very beginning, I know you would ask me if I was a Knicks fan. Yeah. You know, I'm not going to say that I'm not, but I'm also not going to say that I am because, you know, I look.

I'm a native New Yorker. I've been here 20 years all my life. And look, I support them. And I support them being in the NBA finals. I think that it's a really cool moment. It's a historical moment. And I mean, to think that it's been what now, 27 years. Now, now, wait a minute, Henry. I wish we were on YouTube here. We had it here. Jack is such a civil, nice. type of guy, you know what I mean? He says he's been from New York all of his life. That's impossible. It's a lie. That can't be. He's the one that made it out all right. Yeah, you made out all right. How did that happen? There's got to be some reason. I don't know. I mean, you know, look, I've worked in many different, and I would say over the past few years, I've worked in customer service. Everyone says to me, they're like, well, one, they say you have a lot of patience. Are you from here? And I'll say to them, I'm like, yeah, I'm from here. They're like, you don't seem like it. I'm like, I guess that's a good thing. Now, the two of us, three of us talk with holding you, Jack, about Manhattan. Because we're out past Queens. We're out in the, you know, and Hampstead might have some problems. I was told what side of the street to walk on. I may have violated that, Henry. You know, next time you've got to send some muscle guy with me just to walk from the train station. Is that an Odyssey budget? I don't know. Oh, yeah. We've got to have that. Yeah, Greg Stocker was here. So, by the way, Greg Stocker at the luncheon says he doesn't really tell host what to do. And he came in here to tell me, these guys will verify it. Why would I tell Dom Giordano anything to do? Why would I do that? I thought it was the highest compliment. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Yeah, I have to check out. The crowd there when I moderate my event, which is on Ethics and Talk Radio at 4 o'clock today. All right. But, Jack, an aspiration, why would somebody want to live in Manhattan? That'd be the end of the world for me. It's not, not for me. And how much would it take do you think to live okay in Manhattan? Well, I mean, I would say to live okay, I would say at least 100,000. Right. But, you know, as Harry Hurley was saying earlier, that's just for starters. And he's right. It is just for starters because, you know, over time, I mean, look, inflation's not going away. We know that. Right. And also over time, prices are, you know, the cost of living is going to go up. The cost of basic needs and the grocery store is going to go up. So. I would say that that's a good starting price, but it's not a definite set price. So if one was... Why would you want to live in Manhattan? Why would one want to live in? Well, I mean, look, I would say that it's... Well... I mean, I think it's pretty evident that it's a major hub, but it's a major hub where there are so many people coming from all over, not just within the U.S., other countries. There's obviously a great workforce in Manhattan, ranging from the lower Manhattan to upper Manhattan. All right. How about women, though? See, I'm not seeing it, Henry here when I row Manhattan. You know what I say. Just go to Paschunkum Mifflin. Take the first five that come along. You have Miss Universe.

I kind of agree with the New York guys here. Oh, God, that's it. There might be a looker down on past young guy, but like I feel like you've got to play to the numbers that are in Manhattan, you know? And Holden, you are more of a soccer guy because you grew up in Europe for a period of time, right? Yeah, I lived in the Netherlands for a few years. My dad's originally from the Netherlands. And so I grew up watching, I say, Ayaks, a Dutch team who used to be at the top, but now, unfortunately, are nowhere close. So are you itching to go into Hock for the next 20 years to go to a game? Yeah, I mean, to be totally honest, I'm not going to spend $7,000 on a ticket to the final. Like, it's ridiculous. I think the way that FIFA have handled the ticketing situation is, to call it mafia-like, would be an understatement. Right, yeah. I think that they're taking advantage of their fans. And, I mean, soccer internationally is the working man's sport, right? You look in Ivory Coast, for example, one of the... countries that qualified and now they're going to be playing in Philly. 2006, it ended their Civil War, the fact that they qualified for the World Cup. They're not going to be able to access this World Cup. They don't have enough money to be able to buy the tickets, right? So that really, I think... hurts hurts the sport hurts also the growth in the united states uh quite a bit well henry there are people here too talking about coming they were asking me oh philadelphia it looks like you can come to the games there on the pitch and nil nil and all that stuff that's here we go again we're going to be invaded because new york is too expensive yeah well it makes sense it even it's it's very expensive here but like If you wanted to go see the Ivory Coast play like Curacao, that ticket's relatively cheap right now. So, yeah, it does make sense that people want to take the Amtrak down and maybe see a game for 1,000 instead of 3,000 up there. See, I don't mind the soccer. They can come down here. It's basketball. That's where we're going to have to build a better defense. Yeah, that's it, definitely. And particularly after you praise the Brunson family. Oh. I had to. Nova Kid, you know. It's impressive what he's done throughout this run. It really is. Yeah, he's difficult to guard. I would concede that. All right, we have Victoria Coats coming up at 2 o'clock. So, Jack, what do you want to do in the field of media? And for any talent scouts out there, what's your goal? Yeah, I mean, so. A part of being a double major in journalism, I'm also a major in political science. And for many years, I was interested in local politics, even national as well. I would say after coming to college, I've been introduced to it, something with political journalism. I mean, I would say that the field right now, it's very clear there's so much going on on both sides. But I think that that's a good thing. Because one, you're hearing, it's very good to hear opinions from both sides. But it's also important because...

it helps keep you in a job. And it also makes sure that there's always news. I mean, and it may seem clear like that there's always news that, you know, it's not that there's ever no news. But I think that with political journalism, that's something that I would aspire to do, you know, even though I like the political level and even though I like the local political level, like possibly running for local political office one day. You know, I think that with journalism, political journalism, you can really hit any of the levels. It doesn't have to be national. And you hold in. What's the goal? I'm happy whether it's covering sports, whether it's covering news like I do at this radio station. I do sports mostly outside of the radio station. Yeah, what are you doing? What's the job you already have? So I do content with overtime on the – it's a social media company where they do sports debate shows and stuff like that. It's not a full-time thing. But here at WRHU, I'm the news content director. So I'm happy doing news sports. I've done business news before. I've done traffic and weather before. I mean, really, I'm just hungry to get into the industry. You know where you should put this on your resume, right? Henry, it's right at the top of yours. They did both these guys produce today, the Dom Gerdano show. Yeah, I mean, you know what that means. I don't take it into anywhere. Don't take my job. There you go. All right, two great guys here. It is a wonderful concept. We come here and bloviate, and students pick up on that and think, someday I'd like to bloviate. Jack, I don't see you as a bloviator. Holden? Possibly. Yeah. I see that. No, you're a straight, I like what you said about political journalism. All right, we're going to take more calls coming up, and then Victoria Coach will be here, the very best that we can bring you, breaking down. what's happening with Iran. That's still going on. Our buddy, well, not my buddy. E.J. Anthony. Henry's guy. that he just calls and the guy says, yes, sir, I'll be right there. He'll be coming up at 2.30 because big jobs report today that was really good. We'll get his analysis. But we want to get a winner. All-time parents, good, bad or ugly, real or fictional. That gets your name into the hat and then we'll pick the winner. You know, for years, dental visits, you may have been just like me. They mean cleanings twice a year until suddenly they don't. As teeth age and wear down, small issues can turn into complex problems. That's when having the right expertise really matters. What might start as minor discomfort or cosmetic wear and tear, that can require more advanced care. And you want to know you're making the right decisions for your long-term health. And that's where my friends at Bent's Dental Group come in. Board certified prostodontas, Dr. Robert Bentz, and Dr. Emily Bent, specialized in advance and complex dental. care. They see cases like this every day. They understand how to treat not just the symptoms. Their team delivers precise, accurate diagnosis. I've talked about their infrastructure, how good it is over the years. And then it's much easier.

So if your dental needs have gone beyond just the basic cleanings, maybe something more complex, you're just looking, as I've gotten for 12 years, world-class dental care.

Dom Giardano, weekdays, noon till 3, from Talk Radio 1210, WPHD. Tom Giardano on Talk Radio 1210. All right, it is Dom time and Friday 2 o'clock. You know what that means? Dr. Victoria Coach should join us momentarily. A lot to catch up with her. We have the winner of the week for a great prize. We have Dom's Money Melody. We'll do that around 2.13 or so. And E.J. and Tony will join us. Henry, it's the first hour ever. We had two people from the Heritage Foundation together. Thanks to your connection there and Dr. Victoria. Because the jobs were... today, 172,000 that was above expectations by a lot. It seems that the underlying economy is okay. It's inflation slash it comes back to Iran, which I've never seen hostilities like this go to the back burner in this as we try to figure out what to do with them. And again, We know the difficulty. So I asked Dr. Coates about that. As far as at this point in time, they're following the playbook that they usually play. What do we do going forward? Phone lines are 855-839-1210. You get on board. Don't forget, usually with Dr. Coates, it's on YouTube to YouTube.com slash 1210 WPHT. Is she there yet, Henry? Yes. Okay. Let's go to Dr. Victoria Coates here on Talk Radio 1210. Doctor, welcome back. Thanks so much for joining us. Hi, Dom. Great to be with you. Well, Dr. Coates, the Benjamin Netanyahu situation, now we have esteemed international. I'm sure you've done conferences, maybe debated her on Israel, etc. Katie Corrick jumping into the ring because they don't like Bari Weiss's choice of someone to interview Benjamin Netanyahu. And we have the president's call. I see a lot of good in what... leaked out and that the president was clearly showing in whatever way that he differed with him tactically and Benjamin Netanyahu acknowledged that and that's the way it should be right and yeah Katie Kirk and I don't actually go to the same conference we haven't spent a lot of time going over this but you know you just think stay in your lane

It's just you're doing yourself no good. It's like the Congresswoman who didn't know who the president was during the First World War. in her testimony this week with, or in her questioning this week with Secretary Scott Bessent. I mean, it's just, just don't talk about things you don't know about. You mean, you can say nothing. It is possible. And I so strongly agree with you, this is such a crucial point in having been on phone calls with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Trump. Do they sometimes get feisty? They do. Guess what? They're both feisty people. you might have noticed. And so you're in a difficult situation. You've got two sovereign nations. They respect each other. They can get quite sharp making their points. But I bet it was very chummy when they got off the phone. And this should put the lie to this incredible narrative that people spin about how Donald Trump is being dragged into war by the Israelis that, you know, Jerusalem dictates Washington's policy. That does not appear to be true. that it appears that it's quite the opposite that Washington is telling Jerusalem when we have a red line, this is how it's going to be. Now, the good news is our interests really overlap the vast majority of the time. And so this is a rare occurrence, but when it happens, you know, it's clear who the Big Brother is. Yes, without a doubt, were there other presidents? Well, it seemed to be a downright disrespectful, President Obama with Benjamin Netanyahu in the way he treated him. Biden, I don't remember it being like that, but I'm sure somebody of the caliber of Benjamin Netanyahu, it's difficult because you're not dealing with any kind of sharpness at that point. Other presidents in your mind, because Benjamin Netanyahu has been around quite a long period of time with intervals where he wasn't, were there others that got along with him that worked effectively? Well, I mean, yes, but bear in mind the relationship with Israel over the trajectory of his career has really changed because in the 1990s, he is then economics minister as the one who phased out that we used to give direct economic assistance to Israel. And Benjamin Netanyahu one day woke up and said, you know, we don't need this anymore. We are starting to really prosper. And we need friendship and partnership with the United States, but we don't need a handout. And he got rid of that over the course of the 1990s. And then he did have a good relationship with George W. Bush, but our priorities were so different in the post-9-11 period and the focus on Iraq and Afghanistan. And there wasn't a great deal Israel could do at that point to help us on those files.

And so really, it's been since about 2010 when the Israeli military, you know, made a big leap into modernization, really got... ever more exquisite intelligence capabilities, and then also all of the missile defense, the Iron Dome, the David's sling, the arrow two and three, you know, and that gave them tremendous power. And what's been, you know, interesting is Obama was overtly hostile. My understanding is Biden was sort of just, you know. covertly hostile, if you will. They were not as openly aggressive as the Obama team had been, but Vice President Harris, and this is all in my book, The Battle for the Jewish State. you know, what the vice president and her staff were doing was extremely hostile in the post-October 7th period. So really there hasn't been a president when Israel's been, you know, a fully mature, modern country that has worked with them like President Trump has. And that's why the cooperation during Epic Fury is such an important lesson to both of our militaries and to the world of what we're capable of together. And I would say one of the most stunning things, you know, is that the Democrat Party, at least certain Democrats, used to be, for any number of reasons, champions of Israel. They got it. Maybe it wasn't on a level that you operate on, but just some kind of personal connection, people they knew, a particular leader there that's gone away. And in New Jersey this past week in the primary, a suburban area, the 12th congressional district, not too far from us. has elected essentially a guy who was a real buddy of the blind cheek, was a road guy with him, and testified in the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center in defense of the blind cheek. Is it, in your view, TikTok seems to play some role in this, but a lot of these voters are older, so I'm not sure that it's TikTok with him. No, this has really become an article of faith. And, you know, I'm old enough to remember, and I was friends with Joe Lieberman, who was the Democrat nominee to be vice president in 2000. And by the time Senator Lieberin that ended his career, he had to be an independent because things had so deteriorated in the years after 2000 in the Democrat party that he couldn't even run as a Democrat anymore. And he was a liberal guy. in terms of his social policies. But he was a great and good friend of Israel. And I was proud to work with him on those issues and speak with him. He is somebody I went to a lot of conferences with. And as I said, learned a great deal from. But that's not possible anymore. And I mean, this guy is radical in New Jersey. He went over and worked in a Hamas hospital in Gaza. That's how radical this guy is. And, I mean, he makes Zohran Mamdani in New York City look.

moderate, like Harrison, which is terrifying. And that's where they are. And, you know, speaking of conferences, I was at an off-the-record one, so I can't tell you where or with whom, but with some very prominent Democrats. And they were really chilled by this this past week in New York. And they were very concerned about what was happening. But isn't that the biggest sign? Prominent Democrats, high levels, and they know, or they probably told you we can't speak out. And I don't know if I were coaching them politically. I would say morally, you have to. But politically, I kind of understand where it is. That's how bad it's gotten. You know, if you want to advance, and that's why it's going to be so interesting for all of us here in Pennsylvania who might not disagree or might not agree politically with Josh Shapiro, but he's a very decent guy and a talented politician. And I want to see if the Democrats can give him a fair shake in the 2028 primary because he's Jewish. And that's going to be. Very telling in 28. Yeah, exactly. I ran. It's amazing to me, something that's consequential seems to have been faded away from the news of the day. Is there anything upcoming imminent that you see? You and I have talked about the slow bringing down economically and what that will do. But is there anything, Dr. Coach, you see that gets your attention, say in the next week or so? I do think we're going to start to see some more activity because, you know, what came out of Marco Rubio's testimony this week is they are or they think they are in contact with the Supreme Leader. He seems to be maybe coming back to life a little bit, playing more of a leadership role. Everyone should keep an eye on General Vahani, who's the head of the Islamic... opinion, he's the one who's really calling the shots, if anybody is, because he controls the guns. So he seems to have a lot more agency than President Poshti and the parliamentary speaker, the more what you think of as the political guys. So the problem for Iran is the blockade remains in place. So they're down to 50% of their oil production. at this point, their exports are down 90%. So this is just not sustainable. And so we'll see, you know, what, how long the president wants to keep this pressure on. He seems to be in absolutely no hurry, either to, you know, get to a deal or to get back to fighting. So he seems satisfied and it's not blue down a little bit. And our energy sector is booming. So I think he's. I think he's prepared to let this go on a little bit longer, see if we can get a resolution in Lebanon and not have to put more Americans at risk to get to a good outcome. Absolutely. Dr. Coates, as always, thank you. Have a great weekend again. Your plans to go to Israel sometime this summer, right? Say that again. Your plan to go to Israel sometime this summer? Yes.

It's actually pretty imminent, so you'll know when I'm not here. Okay. That's what I'm trying to get at because we want to play that out when you are here, certainly. Dr. Coates, thank you. Thanks very much. Thank you, Dom. Have a good time. All right, Dr. Victoria Coates here on Talk Radio 1210, the very best in all these years of talk radio that's inside. Imagine Katie Corrick debating this on Benjamin Netanyahu with somebody like Dr. Victoria Coates. Okay, got the side question going on. Hit us with that all-time family. Good, bad, and ugly. Real or fictional. The parents is what we're looking for. International Parents Day. Get your name into the hat. But first, it is time for... It's the money melody. That is exactly right. And Henry, if you could tell us what we're playing for today. Sure, I can. So today we are playing for a four pack of tickets to see the Reading Phillies versus Bingham Rumble Pony's at First Energy Stadium in Reading, PA on Friday, July 31st. For tickets, visit Reddingfillies.com. All right, Henry, before you get to that, I'm sorry to intrude, but, you know, I just... Mulligans and the Summer White House and all. And you just sent me this. It's like playing the Tarantella during the show. I get emotional. I can't handle it. Johnny Z. with the new shirts. Oh, my God. Let me make that bigger here. This guy and his wife, Dom Giordano Day. What do you think of the design, Henry? Oh, it's snazzy. I love a good mascot. I like when, like, a place has a mascot like that. And, you know, Mulligan's case is the dog. And I just think it's a very chill vibe overall. Okay, yeah, and very July 4th-ish, 250-ish. The design for the T-shirts at Dom Jir Dano Day, June 19th at Mulligan's Shore Bar and Grill in Wildwood. What do you think? Come on now. Let's put that up on Twitter, would you, Henry? Let's let people, we love it. So, by the way, they still might have some of the summer White House shirts here at Mulligan's over in Wildwood. That you can get before we come down two weeks from today. Trust me, this is a great souvenir of America 250 this year. They ought to, you know, Vanilla Ice ought to show up over at Mulligan's. Might as well at this. Sure. Yeah. Yeah, they don't want them at the other place. Vanilla Ice, say hello to Kirk and Alante McCauley. There you go. Maybe our special guest, too. Special guest and a special guest. All right, everybody, sorry to interrupt. What do you have today? So, Dom, on the side question, they were asking for those all-time parents, real, fictional.

So I'm going to give you someone that, believe it or not, had parents. I know it's shocking. Someone on earth had parents. But yeah, this recording artist in particular, his parents may have sang him, you are my sunshine at some point in their lives, as many parents do to newborns and young kids, you know, singing, you are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray. Well, skies were gray later on in life as this musical artist had a tumultuous relationship with his father. So I'm going to play you this musical artist here covering You Are My Sunshine. I want to know who it is covering this song. Yeah, it might have been a sunshine earlier in life, but later in life, this person and their father did not get along. I want to know the name of this cover artist. All right, hit us with that, and you'll be the winner today. Get the belt, get the prize, 855, 839, 1210, AT&T, and Verizon Wireless. All you have to do is just push pound 1210.

I'm Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. It's the money melody. Where has all my money gone? Show me to my... All right, Henry, quite a tale today that matches the side question. Let's hear the clue. Want to know this cover artist that did not get along with their father. Oh, it's good to Neil and Voorhees on Talk Radio 1210 with Dom. Hey, Neil, good afternoon. What's your answer? Hey, how are you? Good, Neil. Okay, so right away from the clue about a singer not getting along with his father before I even heard the song, you don't, there isn't any worse than getting along with your father than having your father shoot you. So that's why my guest was Marvin Gay, whose father shot him on. Oh, man, beautifully played. Yes. Henry, you kind of didn't hint. That was good, I guess. Yeah, if I say his father shot him, I think everyone knows. Well, no, or hint that there could have been a Second Amendment issue there, you know, something like that, yes. Beautifully played, Neil, that's exactly right. Yeah, I was going to think before I heard the song and he said he, I thought, well, Britney Spears is not getting along with her dad. And I heard the song, I figured, well, it's got to be Marvin Day. And that really is not getting along when your father shoots you. I'll put you on hold and not just any, you know, B-lister. I mean, that's an A-A-lister. Oh, yeah. In a situation of most of us remember. So there we go. That's the winner. Nicely played, Anil. You get the belt for today. All right. Just a reminder, in case you're keeping score, June 14th, okay? Here we go again. Oh, wait a minute. Scheduled for June 14th. That seems to be a little bit off.

June 9, June 16th. Oh, Sunday, June 14th. It's no Kings Day again. I'm not sure if this is the third or fourth, but... I think they're tying it up with Trump's birthday and the UFC matchups on the set at the White House to be held will be very interesting. I don't know. We might do Kings again on Monday as a side question. Did a little while ago. How many times can they do this? They're going to do it again in October, I'd say, right before the midterms. And then maybe afterward to make the point. Let's go to Joe in Columbus on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Joe, good afternoon. Hey, Dom. I was hoping to wish your guest, Harry, a happy new year, but I guess we'll save it for another day. You know what? That's one of the best interviews we've done with them. And when we reveal who we were considering bringing it all, he's exhibit number one. I hope Greg heard that. Not that I know that Greg's against it. I really wanted to ask him, and I've been in and out. I had to hang up one or two times. I really wanted to ask him how it's sitting with him, that we now have to, we're looking to pay reparations for Mikie Sherrill's gross negligence. It's just, you know, $20 million. Come on. Oh, yeah. Yep. It is amazing. She did the right thing, and this is the payment for it to get back in the good graces. She sent in the New York, and I didn't know the Jersey cops were that good at Crown Control. It was unbelievable because they were dealing with some of the most out-of-control people imaginable. Well, and she knew. She knew how good they are. Yeah, exactly. And Dom, you had your words of the, your five words. I think you left out one that has been grossly devalued. And that is awesome. Everybody uses the word awesome these days. And when everything is awesome, nothing is awesome. Yeah, that's exactly right. No, that's right. Yeah, it's, uh, yeah, people would say it over anything. I'm thinking, well, how about Henry? I'm my head spinging with the bro and the not bro and the dude and the dude. That's, you're awesome, dude. Yeah. And Tom, I want to talk about Henry briefly touched on the word dude. I hate that word. Dude. Just rolls off the tongue from me. Like that. Well, my dad always told me the most pleasant thing to anyone's ears is their own name. Don't mispronounce it and use it as often as possible. Don't ever use the word, dude, because it's anti-social behavior. Wow. Told you. Oh, God. All right, Joe. I'd address someone as their name, but, like, in a conversation, I might be like, all right, dude, come on.

Well, yeah, when you're dealing with your college buddies, hey, dude, what are you doing there? But don't ever in a conversation use the word, dude. Wait a minute, Henry. Now, for all that you've taken with the New Year's Eve stuff, I think you ought to be duding everyone at Moigans two weeks from today. That's the way to get even with them. Then I'll give them the dude. Okay. All right. That's reasonable. Yeah. I mean, you know, yeah, if you want to give somebody a nice little bro hug and you can whisper dude in their ear, sure. All right, Joe, what's your side? Dom, mine is, and I think Saturday Live beat this family to the punch in their skit, the wide ends. I don't know if Robert or Caitlin slash Bruce. was responsible, but I know the mother was, and that was the Kardashians. All right, we got you. Yes, what a family. And I thought it was all schick. I mean, how could the guy who, Bruce Jenner, who was one of the greatest looking decathletes, I'm not sure if he was the best ever, end up where we are? He just said, this is just a stunt. But no, it's not. uh let's go to michael in wilmington and he's on talk radio 1210 hello michael hey dom how are you my good sir how's everything i'm new york today i am about ready to moderate a panel of five bloviators on issues of talk radio and pro wrestling how do you think i can i get a word in edgewise yes i will Absolutely. Yeah, pro wrestling. That's going to be, that's going to be some risen conversations for sure. But my side for today, Dom, the family that came to mind for me, as far as a great mom and dad, at times may be kind of awkward in some of their dealings, was the, for me, was the Cosby show. Always loved sealing us, excuse me, seeing the dynamics with Cliff. And Claire Huxable, all the kids, the grandparents, all their quirky friends coming through. And then just the age difference with all the kids as they were growing up. Their dynamics were always amazing. One, Claire was a lawyer. He's a doctor, a gynecologist, very, very... cool dynamics, but great mom and dad with some tremendous episodes and memories from me as far as my side. I had a Cosby at one point with Alvin Poussant, who was the consultant, the guy that drove this whole thing, Michael. And that's a really good one because that's really, he said it, and I agree, the first black family that we saw that was upper middle class professional in that manner. That's one of the reasons it was such a bust out show. Yeah, it really was. I mean, for me watching it with my siblings, but, you know, as many seasons as it had, it just was a great, great show, you know, great mom and dad figures as far as lessons. They were teaching that their adolescent kids were going from being, you know, kind of with toddlers to teenagers with Theo. Just a great overall show and a good mom and dad. So that's my side. Very good, Michael. Have a nice weekend. What about about Bill Cosby?

So much success. Yeah, where is Bill Cosby now? Yes. You know, Henry, he has been a seminal part, though, because Bruce Castor deciding whether he was going to prosecute former DA out of Montgomery County, it was a big deal, Cosby or not. facts simultaneously to Channel 6 and me what the decision was. And I put that fax machine right next to me. I moved a microphone. I had to put it in there. So within a nanosecond, we put it out. So it was high drama several times with, yeah, it is one of the biggest falls for grace that we've ever seen beyond, beyond belief. Yeah, if it's a new side. Ah, falls from grace? Yeah. I'm writing that one down. Yes. I could see that. I don't think we've done it before, the biggest ones that we've seen. Will that be your buddy, Graham Platner? Because you've come up with several things today. Yeah, well, I'd imagine he's going to keep falling. Yeah, the guy, it's just mind-boggling. Imagine having to go out there and try to defend this in some way, shape, or form. All right, let's go to Zenos on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, Zenos. Good afternoon, Tom, and chow and Yasu. Thank you very much, Enos. I'm going to get maybe right to the chase. It goes back. Well, today is, you know, my fat Greek wedding day. Of course. Oh, why is today the big fat Greek wedding day? Well, because the side question involves one of my ancestors. Oh, okay. Sure. So I got to throw that in there, Dan. Dom. It happened about... 300 BC. And I forget... About 300 BC, I forget the lady that comes from my providence at that time, the city-state, was Epida. Well, I'll give her your name, Andorra. So Andorra married this fine, blue-eye, blonde-haired Greek from Macedonia, which was Philip. And Philip... And her had a son and a daughter. Now, you know, as being Greek, you know who the son was, Alexander the Great, and the daughter was Thessalonica. And her name bears the city in Eastern Greece called Fessalonica. Very nice. That is the family, yes. Philip of Macedonia. Imagine being Philip of Macedonia, all-time historical figure, right? And then... You're not even a whisper because you've got to go up. Your son is Alexander the Great? I don't know if I'd like that if I were Philip in Macedonia. How about you? Exactly, Don. Alexander, at the age of 21 to 32, conquered that. You're right. He has these more notorized than his father. And he conquered the world with him and his uncle and his father, but he is known for that. He conquered the known world all the way up to India.

And it is a true family because Greece was not Greece then. Every territory had its own king. You know, they were divided. And the people, that's what we have, our claim, because I come from northeastern Greece. And my people, and Alexander, we're very close with the Macedonians of northern Greece. You know, we almost have a monoculture. Because, you know, of that ancestry that goes back 3,000 years. But that is. But I just wanted to make one remark about what's going on in Iraq. I haven't been busy. Did you say they came down with almost a treaty that is going to open up? No. No, I don't see anything like that. No. Well, then, yeah, I was mistook because I haven't been paying it. I was a little bit working. Okay, well, no, we'll tell you. Thanks, Zenos. Thanks very much. Coming up, E.J. Antony, great stuff from Zenos. But imagine, you know, you're proud as a dad, Alexander's a great your son. But it's like, oh, my goodness. Be like your Henry McMaster and your son is an all-star in the NBA. You're proud. But what about Dad? I did a great job. Absolutely. Okay. So you don't want to challenge him one-on-one? Oh, I absolutely would until he's going to kick in my blood. I can remember the first time Luke beat me, and that was it. We had to play 100 more times that summer. I mean, it was just too much to take. It's too good. All right, 855, 839, 12, 10. E.J. Antony from the Heritage Foundation is next. Jobs report today. Really good. And let's get a winner on the side question on Talk Radio 12 tab.

All right, one of the all-timers, our favorite guy, particularly when we're breaking down some good news, but we'll, you know, if it's bad economic news or somewhat could be, we'll get into that from the Heritage Foundation on the Dom Show, E.J. and Tony, back with us on Talk Radio 1210. Hey, E.J., we're always eager to have you on waiting until we had something to gnaw on. So the jobs report today, why was it pretty good? Well, Dom, it certainly was a great headline. Not only did you have 172,000 jobs added last month, but on top of that, if you look at the revisions to the previous two months, it turns out they were over 90,000 better than previously estimated. In other words, total jobs in the economy as a result of all of that is more than 260,000 higher than it was, according to the last estimate. So great news there on top of that. You know, that's all from a survey of businesses. If we look at the survey of households, the employment level rose 99,000 in the month of May. That's the first time this year that we've seen the employment level go up. So really, really good news there. Not to say that everything's all sunshine and rainbows in the labor market, there are certainly some red flags in this report, but the headline was really, really good. Well, the argument, too, and I wanted to ask you about AI and where you think this goes, and I'm sure you've thought about it, you're doing stuff with it. The argument seems to be, though, this is kind of a false economy. The only thing that's holding it up, I see this all over the place, is the AI boom and what's going to happen with AI and where we're going. Well, the problem with that is when you start reading into these reports, you realize how quickly that whole narrative just kind of falls apart. For example, manufacturing has actually been recovering this year. That's not AI. Obviously, manufacturing uses AI, but it's not, for example, what's holding up the MAG 7, those stocks. I will say if you look at not so much some of the fundamental economic data, but if you're just talking about the stock market, I think that's where... the AI narrative is a lot stronger. In other words, take away AI and what do you have left in the stock market? You're not even up for the year. You're down. Disproportionately, all of this earnings growth that we keep talking about, it's just coming from about seven companies. So I don't see that same kind of lopsided numbers, though, when I look at the jobs report, when I look at the inflation report. and some of the other major ones, for example. E.J. and Tony with us. E.J., where do you come down? Are you in the wait and see you with AI? I see a lot of the difficulties, anxiety, because I don't hear enough about, yes, I see the upside, but we need some guardrails here. Where we are, not sure where you are in the Washington area, but probably the data processing, the AI processing centers, they are front page in the governor's race, et cetera, that we need to do a better job with this.

of community input? Oh, absolutely. Of course you should have community input on these things, 100%. And look, I don't care if that's, if that's a data center or anything else. I mean, Again, no objections there. The thing I guess I'm more concerned about, Dom, when it comes to AI is just all of the misinformation surrounding it. And what's really scary, too, to me, is the fact that so much of the misinformation isn't even coming from our fellow Americans, but it's coming from the Chinese Communist Party. That is very, very troubling. And I think it comes from a place of them wanting to out-compete us and win this new... arms race, I think it's fair to say, which is AI. You know, just like nuclear weapons at one point were the latest greatest arms race. And to a certain extent, I think that's becoming artificial intelligence today. Because it is allowing a computer to do so much of what it took a tremendous number of people, a tremendous amount of time to do. And now AI is doing it incredibly fast. and at reasonably low expense. Yes, I understand it's eating up a lot of electricity, but that is still less in terms of total resource input than it would be if you were having people do all of that. EJ, what's on the horizon now? The Iranian thing drags on. Your colleague over there at the Heritage Foundation, Dr. Victoria Coates, on with us. The more it stays in the back burner and we don't get any resolution, the harder it's going to be to break out of all the inflation that's there. Do you see any signs on inflation other than that that are working? Dom, honestly, I think having this new Fed chair, Kevin Warsh in there, is going to be a big, big help for us. I really do. He understands that the Fed has a lot of tools in the toolkit, right? It's not just a matter of the one key interest rate that we often talk about, which is the Fed Fund's target range. It's not just that. There are a lot of other dials that the Fed can and should be turning and managing, such as the size of the Fed's balance sheet. It should be selling off financial assets at a much faster pace instead of adding, which is what it's doing right now. That is creating money. That is fueling inflation. So yes, I think Kevin Warsh is going to be a big help there. But look, there's only so much he can do because all of the effects from Iran from this war, those are non-monetary shocks. And so the Fed can only use its monetary tools so much. to try to fix a non-monetary problem. At the end of the day, if they try doing too much, they're going to make it worse like they did in the 70s, for example, where they started hiking interest rates to try to combat the inflation that was stemming from an oil shock back then. You do that this time around, you'll have the same negative effects.

Let me give you something I've been waiting all day when Henry told me you'd be coming on, just to see your sense of it as an economist and as a thinker. Well, I'm looking at a seating chart of Madison Square Garden for the Knicks game three, et cetera. The nosebleed seats are $1,200. But E.J., these are only not even mid-range seats, and there's only a few of them left that are $13,000 a seat. Have you ever looked at, you know, the demand is just incredible. It is, absolutely. I mean, Dom, what amazes me is not that Madison Square Garden is asking that price. What amazes me is that so many people are willing to pay for it. But you've got a country of 330 million people, and then you got how many billions of foreigners who can come here to watch these games? So to a certain extent, we shouldn't be that surprised. That a series like this, when you only have a few games in this series, right? And it is the only time each year that it's going to happen. That is an incredible restriction on supply. And so, again, when you have worldwide demand and only a few games a year, I mean, those high prices kind of make sense from that standpoint. I can't figure out. And, you know, certainly because you and Henry get along so great, I can't figure out if you're an economist who would be out with the family saying, no, no, no, that's applied to your wife. You can't have those pearls. It's a supply and demand issue. Or are you more the guy that lets loose economically? Which one is E.J. and Tony? I like to think I am conservative in all things, Don. But I will say, I will say, I tell you what, I am a heck of a lot more likely to buy a diamond for the girlfriend now than I would have been 10 or 15 years ago because the monopoly that places like the De Beers Diamond Company have had over that market are today just absolutely crumbling because the free market answered the call. with synthetic diamonds, these lab-grown diamonds, that they can make the exact same thing. In fact, they can make it better, they can make it flawless, and for a tiny fraction of the cost. So even there, the free market at work. Absolutely. E.J., where do we find you? Best place to find me, Dom, is going to be on X. The handle there is at Real E.J. Anthony. Thank you, E.J., have a great weekend. Awesome. You too, Dom. Thank you. Hey, Henry, I hope he was okay with that question. It just occurred to me, you know. And you heard what he said. He's looking at supply and demand when he's considering the diamond there for the girlfriend. Right, yeah. It doesn't get better than that. No, I hope he was okay. Yeah, no, he's fine.

It's just out of the usual line of question. Right. That's what I'm always looking to do. That's what we have to do here. All right, Roe, take that to the bank. I'm not looking at supply and demand. I'm looking at other things here. 855, 839, 12, 10, you get in. Here's your chance. It's the lightning round. Hit us with that all-time mom and dad or family. By the way, in New York, I can't use that. What is that title? They've changed it to... It's not mom and dad, and it's not birth parent. Oh, yeah, I saw this. Something way too technical that no one would ever say. Yeah, right. Well, they're trying to get away from the gender part of it. That's the new code that you have to use. So we can't even do this question in New York. Justating parents and non-gestating parent? Yeah, the non-gestating parent. That way they can say that males can be gestating. Can you imagine these maniacs together? How do they look in a mirror after a session like this? And they passed it. Well, the same way those voters won a guy whose buddies with the blind cheek to be their congressman. 855, 839, 1210. Get in, hit us with that, and we'll get a winner. Tom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210, WPHT. The time has come for the final test. We usually call us the lightning round. Yeah, I need some help, Henry here. And final segment in Hampstead asking the guys who have been great producers today about cost of college. And I was giving a figure housing, on campus housing, holding, 16,000? Yeah. That's four years, right? No, that was. That's not one year. Come on. I think it was about 16,000. Jack? Yeah, I believe it. I mean, look, I don't dorm on campus, but I think that that's... Around the cost for just one year. Okay. So the Knicks games that are having. Okay. Yeah, right. How many Knicks games do you get to go to? Do you have a butler for the $16,000 a year? I mean, in fairness, they do a lot for us, but I mean, $16,000, yeah, it definitely hurts the pocket a little. Henry Bloomsberg, what was the housing cost there? 2,500 the whole year? There you go. It's pricey here in New York. How are we going to keep them out of Sixers games? The whole time up here, that's what I'm plotting. All right, it is the lightning round. Hit us with that all-time mom and dad, Bill in Bucks. Hey, Bill, good afternoon. What's yours? Good afternoon, yes. I just want to say that that interview with Harry supporting Brian was good to hear. Oh, okay. You're back on the Fitzpatrick chain, huh? I certainly am. Yes, I am. Well, look, if you have to put, I'd say it this way, if you have to put up with Tom King. He may come to Wildwood in June. I don't know. No, but he's getting married in June. Oh, well, he may show up in Wildwood. Well, tell him to come over to Mulligans. We'll smoke the peace pipe there. I don't know how. We'll have you as the negotiator back and forth of the teams. Okay. We'll see what happens. They've got to get married first, and it's coming up shortly as far as I know. We still don't know if Josh Shapiro is going to be at the wedding. We still don't know, right? I don't know yet. He has you. Did they invite you or you didn't get it? Or you sent you on R-S-E-D-U? Well, Henry didn't, you know, I've been on remote today. He didn't give me the update on that. Yeah, the mail is slow around here. I can't say I've seen it here. Yeah, yeah. The mail is tough.

Look. My side question, not really a family. It was a cult and criminal commune in California. They had delusional, health or skeletal beliefs. They committed multiple murders and went to prison, the Charles Manson family. Tom. All right. It has family on it, so I don't know who the mom and dad was on that. I'm no idea. And when they talk about eyes that look right through you, it's sometimes overdone. And I've never seen him up close, thank God. But Manson's eyes, yeah. Tom Snyder was on, and I asked him about it, Emory, way back when. And he said, yeah, it's that brutal. It is Magnet. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Kevin and Bucks. Hey, Kevin, what's yours today? Hey, okay, so first of all, soccer. Great. You're breaking up, and I thought you might be saying how great soccer is. No, no, no. If God had wanted to play soccer, he would not have given it arms. Ah, there you go. I'm looking at Holden here. Yeah, holding you have a retort to that. Why did God give us arms? Somebody wanted us to play soccer. Right. I don't know. I don't know. But I think, you know. Parents, these parents put the fun and dysfunctional, Malcolm in the middle. Yes, they were great. You're right, particularly the dad in that. Mama's great too, but he's an all-time great actor. He's an anti-Trump guy, but he's still a great actor. Richard and Somerdale. I have Richard. What's yours? Okay, the Mr. and Mrs. Vito Corleone. I forget her first name, but we said that never go against the family. Ah, there you go. There are immortal words of that. And one more, Karen, in North Carolina. Hey, Karen, what's yours? Oh, hi, Dom. I used to live in Vermont, and there was a family that lived there called the Von Trapp family, who escaped the Nazis in Austria and had the famous movie The Sound of Music made about them. I'm not sure their family was all as happy as that movie made them out to be, but they're still up there with a great big resort, and a lot of the family still sings and travels around, and it's a big deal in Vermont. Thank you, Karen. That and Bernie Sanders, yes. Okay. It's time to decide here, Kirk. Who did you like today? I'm going to go with Zenos, went through Greek route, as always. King Philip of Macedonia and Queen Olympias. Oh, yes, we had to hear the full name, the town, the whole thing, and they produced Alexander the Great. That's pretty good parenting, I would say, yes. Henry, how about yours? Yeah, I like Zenos's answer of Philip and Olympia. So I also like Kevin and Buck's answer of Hal and Lois from Malcolm in the middle, and Richard and Somerdale with the Corleones. All right, I could go. I like that answer, the middle one there. That was, again, yes, Malcolm in the middle.

It was a good family, even though it was quirky. There was a lot of connection structure, even though they had some bizarro kids there. Let's put that down and let's have the review of the week. Yeah, Dom. So Monday, we asked for something associated with Westerns, Michael and Wilmington, one with the saloon piano stopping when someone walks in. Tuesday, we asked for that anti-hero. Gary Newtown won with Lieutenant Commander James Rees. Wednesday we asked for someone who's going to be relevant in a hundred years. Michael Momentum won again with Snoop Dog. Yesterday we asked for the all-time voice, Richard Somerdale, won with John Fissenda, and you had heard it here, that today's winner was Kevin and Box with Malcolm in the middle and the whole family. So if we put all those into the hat, get a little drum roll going. Ah, it's number four, Richard in Somerdale. Oh, nice. This week's winner. Nicely played, Richard. So, and what is the prize? He gets a copy of Scott Jennings' book. All right, yes, the Western civilization part is the part that I always emphasize. Well, it was pretty nice to have not one, not two, but four producers today. Nice. It is. Yeah. Right. Yeah, it's an all-time record, a producer's convention. Jack, thank you. It was a pleasure to meet you. Good luck in the future. Just remember, never write anything bad about the Dom Giordano family here. You're being big trouble. Exactly right. And Holden, thank you. And thanks for helping me to get to the train station. I was ready to run for my life again. Of course. Do not worry one bit. Okay. And Henry and Kirk, have a great weekend. Go Spurs, right, Henry? Yeah, go Spurs all the way, please. Wow. I'm not going to root for the Knicks. I like the Nova guys, but I'm not room for the Knicks. You've got to see it up here. We're not even in New York City. Oh, yeah. There's a lot of these. Rally's being held. It's on TV here. Oh, yes. Well, that's good as long as you don't come to Philadelphia. It's cheaper to have a rally here in Philadelphia. Right. I'm going to check tonight to see if they sold out those $13,000 seats. That's the ones that are. You heard, E.J. Well, I like the free market there. That explains it. Oh, come on. All right. The afternoon show is next. Have a great time. I'm off to moderate a panel, obloviation beyond belief here. in Amsterdam. And I'll be bloviating just as much. The afternoon show is next.
