1
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:20,120
Speaker 1: Attention, dittoheads, attend bo Scouts Nedly, It's time for the

2
00:00:20,399 --> 00:00:21,800
soul of excellence.

3
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 2: He is a radio host here in New York.

4
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: The Rush Hour is it's on the air Rush Rush.

5
00:00:27,839 --> 00:00:29,600
Now here's James Golden.

6
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:38,799
Speaker 3: Welcome my friends. It's the Tuesday edition bos Nerdly is

7
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:47,479
Rush Hour and wow, so much going on. Let me

8
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,439
start by saying, this another loss, and this one hits

9
00:00:50,439 --> 00:00:51,520
home personally to me.

10
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,479
Speaker 4: He was a friend.

11
00:00:54,719 --> 00:00:56,479
Speaker 3: And I would not say we were like we weren't

12
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,439
best buds or anything like that, but we were friends.

13
00:01:00,479 --> 00:01:01,960
And I would pick up the phone from time to

14
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,680
time and call him or he would call me back

15
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,400
once in a while. And Chris Jasper from the Isley

16
00:01:10,439 --> 00:01:17,680
Brothers passed away. It was announced yesterday and apparently he

17
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,680
had passed away on Sunday. The family announced it yesterday.

18
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:26,159
Now I did an interview. In fact, we debuted on

19
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:32,200
this Saturday program. We debuted a song from Chris Jasper

20
00:01:32,239 --> 00:01:35,879
that we're going to revisit this coming Saturday. It was

21
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:40,280
such a beautiful, spiritual, patriotic song. It was about America

22
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,359
and Chris and I talked to him. One of the

23
00:01:42,359 --> 00:01:45,319
things he said was I said to him was that

24
00:01:45,359 --> 00:01:52,560
he was unapologetically pro America, and he was. And he

25
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:59,719
was also unapologetically pro spiritual. He was very very in

26
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:03,280
winced by matters of the spirit. And we talked about that.

27
00:02:03,319 --> 00:02:06,519
We talked about his great career. He is a member

28
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,240
of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, so we

29
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,840
talked about that with and so we'll be playing some

30
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,960
of the Eisley's music today. And profound sense of sadness

31
00:02:18,199 --> 00:02:21,560
that I have over the passing away age seventy three

32
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,520
of Chris Jasper. Apparently he passed away if he was

33
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,080
diagnosed with cancer in December. Of of course I was

34
00:02:29,159 --> 00:02:33,159
unaware of any of that, and two months old and

35
00:02:33,879 --> 00:02:37,680
later he's gone from us, so very very sad.

36
00:02:40,039 --> 00:02:41,759
Speaker 4: On the political front.

37
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 3: On the political front, I at one point I put

38
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,599
a post up just stop because I'm crying from laughter.

39
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:01,159
The Associated Press, as you may know, decided they were

40
00:03:01,159 --> 00:03:04,520
going to stick their busy little middle finger up to

41
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,199
Donald Trump and haram varum tarum, how dare he change

42
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,479
the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf

43
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,800
of America. We're not going to listen to that. We'll

44
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,680
screw him. He's only the president of the United States,

45
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,800
so they stuck their middle finger up at him. The

46
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,280
White House then said, you know what, we have a

47
00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:29,159
middle finger too.

48
00:03:29,599 --> 00:03:30,159
Speaker 4: Here it is.

49
00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 3: You're not going to be allowed in the Oval office.

50
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,319
It's a very tight space and we're going to reserve

51
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,400
it for other news agencies.

52
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,599
Speaker 4: Here's that harm harrum's to you too too.

53
00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:46,159
Speaker 3: The Associated Press then decided, well, we've got another hand,

54
00:03:46,199 --> 00:03:48,319
and it's got another middle finger on it. So here

55
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,759
it is. We are taking you to court because you

56
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,919
can't do that to us. You can't deny us access

57
00:03:56,439 --> 00:04:00,719
to the White House Oval Office or tell us we

58
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,479
can't be with you on Air Force one simply because

59
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:08,360
we hate your guts and try to display it in

60
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:14,560
every human way possible. So karns, well, today we got

61
00:04:14,719 --> 00:04:18,240
the White House other hand. They have a middle finger too,

62
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:25,439
and cut one. Here is the White House's other middle finger.

63
00:04:25,639 --> 00:04:27,079
Back to the ap.

64
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 5: As you all saw yesterday, a federal judge denied the

65
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:36,120
Associated Press's emergency motion for a temporary restraining order against myself,

66
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:39,920
our Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Buttowich, and our Chief

67
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,959
of Staff Susie Wiles, for our decision to remove the

68
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,240
Associated Press from the White House press pool for certain

69
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:50,759
and special events. The judge's ruling upholding our decision to

70
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:55,639
deny the Associated Press such privileged access reinforces the truth

71
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,319
and it reiterates what I said from this podium last

72
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,839
week when that's it was filed, asking the President of

73
00:05:02,879 --> 00:05:06,560
the United States questions in limited spaces such as the

74
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,000
Oval office in Air Force one is a privilege that

75
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,360
unfortunately has only been granted to a few. It is

76
00:05:13,439 --> 00:05:15,519
not a legal right for all.

77
00:05:17,399 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 3: Well, my friends, that is that, and that is so beautiful.

78
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 4: Now.

79
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 3: I looked on the Associated Press website to try to

80
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:33,360
find the story of Associated Press losing.

81
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:36,199
Speaker 4: The battle, and guess what I didn't find.

82
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 3: I mean, there's probably there somewhere, but it wasn't big,

83
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:48,120
huge block letters as the first story. Now, so you

84
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,560
don't have that other one. Well, later on, my friends,

85
00:05:54,519 --> 00:05:59,600
Caroline Levitt delivered de coudeta, and this is the one

86
00:05:59,639 --> 00:06:06,839
that had me laughing my head off. Laughing my head off,

87
00:06:09,519 --> 00:06:13,199
the headline. Let me take some of the headlines from

88
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:20,920
various and sundry news sources. Okay, here's the rather mild

89
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:29,879
headline from the New York Times. White House moves to

90
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:37,480
pick the pool reporters who cover Trump. That's the mild version.

91
00:06:39,199 --> 00:06:44,639
Politico decided they were gonna go for the more aggressive

92
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,279
version of the story. White House sees us control of

93
00:06:49,399 --> 00:06:54,920
press pool will decide which outlets cover events with the president.

94
00:06:56,639 --> 00:07:01,199
They seized like like you have it, play it, play it,

95
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,600
just play the daggone thing.

96
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 4: Let's just hear it.

97
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 5: A group of DC based journalists, the White House Correspondence Association,

98
00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:15,079
has long dictated which journalists get to ask questions of

99
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,079
the President of the United States in these most intimate spaces.

100
00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:23,079
Not anymore. What I am proud to announce that we

101
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,160
are going to give the power back to the people

102
00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:28,439
who read their papers, who watch the television shows, and

103
00:07:28,439 --> 00:07:32,480
who listen to your radio stations. Moving forward, the White

104
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,800
House Press Pool will be determined by the White House

105
00:07:34,839 --> 00:07:38,839
Press Team. Legacy outlets who have participated in the press

106
00:07:38,879 --> 00:07:42,079
pool for decades will still be allowed to join he

107
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,920
or not, but we will also be offering the privilege

108
00:07:44,959 --> 00:07:48,279
to well deserving outlets who have never been allowed to

109
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,800
share in this awesome responsibility. Just like we added a

110
00:07:52,839 --> 00:07:56,160
new media seat in this briefing room, legacy media outlets

111
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,839
who have been here for years will still participate in

112
00:07:58,879 --> 00:08:02,160
the pool. The new voices are going to be welcomed

113
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,120
in as well. As part of these changes, we will

114
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,879
continue the rotation amongst the five major television networks to

115
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,240
ensure the President's remarks are heard far and wide around

116
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,120
this world. We will add additional streaming services which reach

117
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,319
different audiences than traditional cable and broadcasts. This is the

118
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,399
ever changing landscape of the media in the United States today.

119
00:08:24,199 --> 00:08:27,000
We will continue to rotate a print pooler who has

120
00:08:27,079 --> 00:08:31,040
the great responsibility of quickly transcribing the President's remarks in

121
00:08:31,079 --> 00:08:33,919
disseminating them to the rest of the world. And we

122
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,200
will add outlets to the print pool rotation who have

123
00:08:36,279 --> 00:08:40,039
long been denied the privilege to partake in this experience,

124
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,799
but are committed to covering this White House beat. We

125
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,679
will continue to rotate a radio pooler and add other

126
00:08:46,799 --> 00:08:50,320
radio hosts who have been denied access, especially local radio

127
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,200
hosts who serve as the heart feat of our country.

128
00:08:53,919 --> 00:08:56,240
And we will add additional outlets and reporters who are

129
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,240
well suited to cover the news of the day and

130
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,840
ask substantive questions of the President of the United States,

131
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,399
depending on the news he is making on that given day.

132
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 4: Folks, the tsunami in Washington, DC.

133
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 3: Most of you are like, yeah, okay, I guess I

134
00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:15,360
don't know what most of you are doing, but I imagine

135
00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:17,120
some of you are like, Okay, what's the big deal.

136
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,600
This is a big deal. This is an earthquake in Washington, DC.

137
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,320
And announcing plans to hand pick the reporters who can

138
00:09:24,519 --> 00:09:29,679
ask the president questions. The White House is breaking decades

139
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:35,240
of president, writes The New York Times. The change announced

140
00:09:35,279 --> 00:09:39,200
by miss Levitt breaks decades of president. The White House

141
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:44,399
Correspondence Association, a group representing journalists who cover the administration,

142
00:09:44,759 --> 00:09:50,440
has long determined on its own which reporters could participate

143
00:09:50,799 --> 00:09:53,840
in the daily pool. Yeah, they were a bunch of elitists,

144
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:59,000
a bunch of mainstream media types who circle the wagons

145
00:09:59,039 --> 00:10:04,519
among themselves. Wudn't let anybody else in their exclusive club.

146
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,960
And now Donald Trump has broken into the clubhouse and

147
00:10:10,039 --> 00:10:14,320
they are not not, I repeat happy about it, not

148
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:20,440
in the least. The White House Correspondence Association rebuked they're

149
00:10:20,519 --> 00:10:22,320
using biblical language here, folks.

150
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 4: They don't just like it. They're rebuking it. They are.

151
00:10:26,039 --> 00:10:29,879
Speaker 3: They're going to smite it, probably after they get through

152
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:36,720
rebuking it. The White House Correspondence Association rebuket then move

153
00:10:37,039 --> 00:10:42,399
in a blistering statement. This move tears that the independence

154
00:10:42,799 --> 00:10:46,919
of a free press in the United States. Eugene Daniels,

155
00:10:47,159 --> 00:10:52,399
the president of the association, wrote, it suggests the government

156
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,840
will choose the journalists who cover the president. In a

157
00:10:55,919 --> 00:11:00,559
free country, leaders must not be able to choose their

158
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,360
own press core. The association said that had been giving

159
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,159
no warning of Miss Levitt's announcement and that there have

160
00:11:08,279 --> 00:11:12,440
been no prior discussions about it with the White House.

161
00:11:13,039 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 4: The w h c A will never.

162
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 3: Stop advocating for comprehensive access, full transparency, and the right

163
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,919
of the American public to read, listen, to, and watch

164
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,919
the report from the White House delivered without fear or

165
00:11:29,039 --> 00:11:32,480
favor by the people that we pick. And only that

166
00:11:32,799 --> 00:11:35,919
I'm just adding that to their statement by the outlets

167
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,200
that we pick that a part of our club.

168
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 4: And we rebuke this.

169
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,600

00:14:28,879 --> 00:14:31,960
You deserve it.

209
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,519
Speaker 4: I think she's a little upset.

210
00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 2: Folks, some of.

00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,320

00:14:39,399 --> 00:14:42,879
have to be gentle with them. Right now, I have

213
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:49,840
the distinct honor to have my friend back in the house.

214
00:14:51,159 --> 00:14:54,639
Probably get mad because I call him my friend. He

215
00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:58,840
is running from Mayor. So he had to give up Temple,

216
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,159
he had to give up his video show, maybe forever

217
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:02,600
if he wins the election.

218
00:15:03,559 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 4: And he is a great broadcaster.

219
00:15:05,799 --> 00:15:07,879
Speaker 3: But more than that, this is a guy who has

220
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:13,919
spent his life trying to protect the people of New York.

221
00:15:15,039 --> 00:15:19,440
So it is my honor to welcome back to the

222
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,399

Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you both.

224
00:15:24,639 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 8: Snerdley and I just arrived from the South Bronx where

225
00:15:29,039 --> 00:15:33,919
a group of older African American men were singing as

226
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,879
if they were Donnie Hassaway, and some of the women

227
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,159
were singing.

228
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:38,879
Speaker 2: Like they were ROBERTA.

229
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:43,279
Speaker 8: Flack, and it was amazing a tribute to the loss

230
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:43,879
of ROBERTA.

231
00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 2: Flack.

232
00:15:44,279 --> 00:15:48,039
Speaker 8: So I'm still sitting shiva. I'm sitting in mourning for ROBERTA.

233
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 4: Flack.

234
00:15:48,799 --> 00:15:52,799
Speaker 8: But they were doing duos of Donnie Hasway and ROBERTA.

235
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,559
Speaker 2: Fact Where is the love?

236
00:15:55,799 --> 00:15:59,399
Speaker 8: The closer I get to you tonight, I celebrate my love.

237
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,759
I like the version done with Peeble Bryson later Ross.

238
00:16:04,279 --> 00:16:08,559
Speaker 2: Oh, tonight, I celebrate my love. Oh oh, it's great.

239
00:16:08,679 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 8: I was there for trying to help the people, mostly

240
00:16:12,279 --> 00:16:15,840
women and children and elderly. They're putting two thousand, two

241
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,360
hundred single, able bodied young men of military age with

242
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,799
nothing to do and nowhere to go migrants and any

243
00:16:22,879 --> 00:16:25,919
shelter when supposedly we're closing shelters in New York City.

244
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,279
Speaker 2: They just announced they're closing the Roosevelt Hotel.

245
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 8: So why are we putting them in a different shelter

246
00:16:31,799 --> 00:16:35,440
in the South Bronx, which already has shelters, halfway houses,

247
00:16:35,519 --> 00:16:37,919
we have centers and in jail across the street.

248
00:16:39,039 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 3: Two thousand, two hundred migrants coming in Bronx residents angry.

249
00:16:45,559 --> 00:16:49,519
This is let's see, according to Fox News Digital on

250
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:54,480
the report, after learning they are powerless to stop it, Curtis,

251
00:16:54,519 --> 00:16:57,600
we had to stop down for a quick break. You know,

252
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,639
my friend Chris Jasper passed away part of the Isley

253
00:17:00,679 --> 00:17:05,160
Brothers plus Eisley Jasperisley. So we're Playingsley Brothers today too,

254
00:17:05,279 --> 00:17:08,359
And yesterday we played with Bertha and we're gonna just wow.

255
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 8: Well Ernie Issley best on the guitar forever.

256
00:17:12,759 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 3: You know it. Anyway, Curtis, stay where you are. Let's

257
00:17:15,759 --> 00:17:18,039
talk about this. Let's also talk about why you're running

258
00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:20,200
for mayor and what you hope to do for the

259
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,680
city of New York if elected to be the mayor.

260
00:17:25,039 --> 00:17:28,400
James Golden Sturly was here Both Sternly's rush Hour. Curtis

261
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,279
Lee was with me, don't go away, keep it right here, please.

262
00:17:49,319 --> 00:17:52,079
Speaker 7: James Golden, known popularly as both Surly.

263
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: This is the rush hour with James Golden.

264
00:17:56,039 --> 00:18:01,079
Speaker 9: Rush it's Jasmine like and.

265
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 10: We know, like, this isn't me trying to throw shade.

266
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,759
These are just the facts when you look at who's

267
00:18:05,839 --> 00:18:09,160
voting for who the less educated folks. And when I

268
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,279
say educated, I'm not even talking about formal education. I'm

269
00:18:12,319 --> 00:18:14,680
talking about people that literally don't want to read and

270
00:18:14,799 --> 00:18:17,960
enlighten themselves on facts. Those are the people that typically

271
00:18:18,079 --> 00:18:20,440
vote for the Republicans. And it's one of the reasons

272
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,160
that we have to stop writing in theses as Democrats, right, Like,

273
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,799
we want to give you every single little detail that

274
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:29,160
we can find so that you can have all the information.

275
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,079
But the reality is that the average person that is

276
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,640
going out there and voting, they're not paying attention to that.

277
00:18:34,839 --> 00:18:36,559
Speaker 2: There is a lot of ways fraud and abuse in

278
00:18:36,759 --> 00:18:37,480
the federal government.

279
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 10: Though I'm not going to say that there's a lot.

280
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,599
I'm going to say that it does exist. I'm going

281
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,759
to say that exists. I don't think that there's a lot.

282
00:18:45,039 --> 00:18:45,559
Speaker 2: I think.

283
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 10: We're in debt because we decide that we're going to

284
00:18:49,279 --> 00:18:50,319
reduce the income.

285
00:18:53,519 --> 00:19:00,319
Speaker 3: We're in debt, be course, we decide because we thought

286
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,400
we're going to reduce the income. And Republicans are so

287
00:19:03,559 --> 00:19:06,240
dumb they don't read. But we in debt because we

288
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:13,079
decided we wanted to reduce the income. Oh wow, Curtis,

289
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,799
you know, you know what happened to the Grammys? Uh

290
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,799
in nineteen eighty one, this was Bob seekers here. This

291
00:19:18,839 --> 00:19:21,400
is the year Bob Seger one for this one Best

292
00:19:21,519 --> 00:19:24,279
Rock Performance, for this great song of his. I hope

293
00:19:24,319 --> 00:19:28,319
you like it, Curtis, because you know you sometimes with music, Nah.

294
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:33,759
Speaker 8: Nor I'm coming off that high ROBERTA. Flack, Donnie Hathory. Yeah, man, people, Yeah,

295
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:36,559
you saying kind of hard to go the Siger out,

296
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,960
you know, like right off for that plus coming from

297
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,279
the hood the South Bronx. If I were have played

298
00:19:41,319 --> 00:19:43,920
that music, they'd run me right off for one thirty

299
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,559
eighth and Brook and Cyprus.

300
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 3: Curtis, they called you, didn't they? They called you to

301
00:19:49,519 --> 00:19:50,960
come to the neighborhood, didn't they.

302
00:19:51,039 --> 00:19:54,839
Speaker 8: Yeah, the Black Reverence called me because they were getting

303
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,960
nowhere with the city administration, with Governor Hoko or the

304
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,039
police you know who, over attacks. They just don't have

305
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,839
enough police. So when all else fails, you know what

306
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,319
you do, James Golden, You call the Guardian Angels and

307
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,640
we always respond. I remember our forty sixth anniversary just

308
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,519
passed February thirteenth, and we started in the South bron

309
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,880
So we're now in thirteen countries and one hundred and

310
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,599
thirty cities, so we will always come back and pay

311
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,079
tribute to the people who made this all possible.

312
00:20:25,799 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 4: Curtis, why are you running from here?

313
00:20:27,799 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 8: Well, all you got to do is just look at

314
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,400
the streets and the subways, the quality of life that

315
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,720
has been diminished, the crime, the fear that has led

316
00:20:35,759 --> 00:20:39,640
to flight, and the fact that we have, especially women,

317
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,599
who are being targeted again and again. And the different

318
00:20:43,599 --> 00:20:45,799
thing that I do, James, I think you've noticed this

319
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,039
over the years. I don't vilify the emotionally disturbed of

320
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,160
the homers. I actually go down there and try to

321
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,839
tend to their needs. And if given the power of

322
00:20:54,839 --> 00:20:58,000
being the mayor, I can then make sure the emotionally

323
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,440
disturbed persons and not living in the sob waste the

324
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,920
parks in the streets, but are actually in mental health

325
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,960
care facilities, and that all these migrant shelters that are

326
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:12,160
being abandoned now as migrants begin to get sorted out,

327
00:21:13,279 --> 00:21:17,079
get turned over to be housing our Americans, especially veterans

328
00:21:17,319 --> 00:21:20,640
who may have been in harm's way, who may have

329
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,599
served in war peace, but they deserve premiere treatment, not

330
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:25,599
the migrants.

331
00:21:26,279 --> 00:21:28,039
Speaker 3: Let me ask you another question, Kurt, and we have

332
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,359
some calls for you, and I'm gonna ask you some

333
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,279
what I think may be some tough questions, but questions

334
00:21:33,319 --> 00:21:36,519
I think that people want to know the answers to. Okay,

335
00:21:36,559 --> 00:21:40,519
you have this image, right, you have not only excelled

336
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,759
in trying to make people's lives safe on the streets.

337
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,440
You're not afraid of battle. Right, you are a guy

338
00:21:50,799 --> 00:21:54,720
that has taken bullets and lived to tell about it.

339
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,200
But are you the kind of guy, Curtis that's going

340
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:03,119
to sit down and in awe at city Hall and

341
00:22:03,279 --> 00:22:07,319
work on a budget that, if you print it out,

342
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:12,400
is probably as big as twenty five thirty phone books?

343
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:17,559
How are you equipped to be the corporate kind of mayor,

344
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,880
the guy that's going to sit down and handle the

345
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,039
nuts and the bolt of city governance?

346
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 4: Is that your style? Is that who you are? Well?

347
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 8: Well, James Golden, We've had a series of individuals as

348
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,359
mayor who were very pretentious, who acted as if they

349
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:35,839
could handle all of those things.

350
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,039
Speaker 2: There are plenty of men and women in.

351
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 8: That field who are the best that they could possibly be,

352
00:22:41,759 --> 00:22:44,119
possibly be, And what you do is you encourage them

353
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:44,920
to come on board.

354
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 2: And obviously take the lead.

355
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,359
Speaker 8: You're ultimately the person as mayor who makes the decision,

356
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,200
but you also have to be a mayor who somebody

357
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,279
can say no to, and you're going to listen to

358
00:22:55,319 --> 00:22:56,960
them because they're an expert in the field.

359
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 2: We haven't had that with Adams.

360
00:22:58,839 --> 00:23:01,799
Speaker 8: We certainly didn't have that with Deblasio, and when he

361
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,279
was governor, we certainly didn't have that with Cuomo.

362
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 3: All Right, how are you going to deal with the

363
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:08,960
City Council of New York? How are you gonna do

364
00:23:09,039 --> 00:23:12,519
with all these diverse personalities some of them are complete

365
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:17,640
total left wingers that help the city get into this mess?

366
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:23,039
How does Curtis Sliwa deal and what is in Curtis

367
00:23:23,079 --> 00:23:26,400
Leewer's background to give people confidence that you're going to

368
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,920
be able to go into that mayor's office and deal

369
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:36,839
with these really some of them, very very difficult personalities

370
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,559
who are diametrically opposed to everything that most people want

371
00:23:41,559 --> 00:23:42,240
for this city.

372
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 8: James Goldlin, you know, I'm the one person who has

373
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,960
been into all their neighborhoods. I've been in all of

374
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,720
their districts. I've been into neighborhoods where the only Republican

375
00:23:51,759 --> 00:23:54,440
people I've ever seen is Abraham Lincoln on a five

376
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,279
dollar bill. So when they sit down with me one

377
00:23:57,319 --> 00:24:00,799
on one, I know what they need in their neighborhoods

378
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,200
in order for them to be exalted, in order for

379
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,039
them to be praised. It's called discretionary money. They have

380
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,880
pet projects in their neighborhoods. And having seen how that's

381
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,160
operated before in successful times when we had mayors like

382
00:24:15,279 --> 00:24:18,680
Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg, you have to go into

383
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,200
their district, sit with them in their district, make them

384
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:23,200
feel comfortable.

385
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 2: And then if you don't know something, you.

386
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 8: Rely on them and their advisors and you make them

387
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,839
feel comfortable. Right now, they know they control the city,

388
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,200
so you have to be able to break bread and

389
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,880
have discussions. And I know what they need, which is

390
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,880
discretionary funds. And then that's when you start to negotiate

391
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,039
and you find out what they can do for you

392
00:24:46,079 --> 00:24:48,519
and your agenda, and what you can do for their

393
00:24:48,519 --> 00:24:49,519
discretionary funds.

394
00:24:49,599 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 2: It's been done before.

395
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 8: This mayor refuses to do it and build a Blasio. Well,

396
00:24:54,759 --> 00:24:56,559
let's face it, he was too busy on the back

397
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,799
port smoking Maui Wawi and Hindu cushion working ahead to

398
00:25:00,839 --> 00:25:03,279
spend any time with members of the City Council, of

399
00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:04,960
which one time he served.

400
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,160
Speaker 4: Courteously. What about other schools in New York?

401
00:25:09,279 --> 00:25:12,799
Speaker 3: I continue to say that it is disgraceful that in

402
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,920
this largest city, one of the largest cities in the world,

403
00:25:16,279 --> 00:25:20,160
New York, consistently for decades now has had over two

404
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:24,920
hundred per a year failing schools. Over and over again,

405
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,079
we have failed generations of New York children and left

406
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:34,160
them unable to participate in America, in the world with

407
00:25:34,319 --> 00:25:35,319
a decent education.

408
00:25:35,599 --> 00:25:37,319
Speaker 4: What it will, mayor courteously we do.

409
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,519
Speaker 3: I don't think this is the problem that's going to

410
00:25:39,559 --> 00:25:41,440
be solved in one term a mayor. I'm not looking

411
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,400
for a pioneer guy answer. If you have went great,

412
00:25:44,519 --> 00:25:47,160
But what is courtesely we're going to do, mayor courteously,

413
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,960
We're to address education in New York City.

414
00:25:50,759 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 8: Games Golden, There's no one answer that's going to resolve

415
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,799
all the problems, the serious problems we have in the

416
00:25:56,839 --> 00:26:01,039
Department of Education, which right now takes one third of

417
00:26:01,039 --> 00:26:03,799
the city budget thirty six billion dollars. And as you

418
00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:07,279
pointed out, we get nothing, The children get nothing, the

419
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,839
teachers are having to reach into their pockets and actually

420
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,880
pay for items that the children need to be able

421
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,559
to function in a classroom. On a thirty six billion

422
00:26:16,599 --> 00:26:19,880
dollar budget, you think we're ready for a little doze

423
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,440
action here, you know, not at the same level of

424
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,599
Elon Musk, but at a much smaller level in which

425
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,880
we cut out all the waste. We make sure that

426
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,480
the teachers have all the supplies that they need, and

427
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,400
that the children most importantly have a discipline atmosphere in

428
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,440
both the classroom and the hallways in the school, so

429
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,480
that they can learn and they are not going to

430
00:26:41,519 --> 00:26:44,160
be frightened by those who are there for all the

431
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,680
wrong reasons. You have to be able to take those

432
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,599
young people out, put them into a different atmosphere of

433
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,680
vocational schools at which we don't have enough, teach them

434
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,680
a trade, and not only will they be productive, and

435
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,519
not only will they be good citizens.

436
00:26:57,559 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 2: As a result, they may become small entrepreneurs.

437
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:00,599
Speaker 4: All of my.

438
00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:03,599
Speaker 8: Cousins, James Gold and many of my cousins would have

439
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,319
probably gone to jail or prison if it hadn't been

440
00:27:06,319 --> 00:27:08,720
for a vocation in high school teaching them to be

441
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:13,440
a carpenter electrician of plumbing, any of those trades that

442
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,920
it desperately needed. I mean, that's the demand of the workplace,

443
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,400
and we're not providing enough of those skilled laborers.

444
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 3: Jacquelin in Brooklyn, you have a question for meryw candidate

445
00:27:24,279 --> 00:27:26,480
Curtis Lee. What in New York running for the mayor

446
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,119
of New York City, the most important mayoral job in America.

447
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,599
Speaker 4: What is your question for Curtis Jacquelin high there.

448
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,799
Speaker 6: That's right, Thank you very much, Curtis. I hope that

449
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,599
you have a very good war chest behind you, and

450
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,880
I want to make the statement that it is imperative

451
00:27:43,279 --> 00:27:45,799
that you become mayor this time around. There was a

452
00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:48,680
disappointment that you didn't become mayor the last time, but

453
00:27:48,839 --> 00:27:51,200
now it's truly a matter of life and depth from

454
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,240
the way I see it, as far as the way

455
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,519
the city has gone down the toilet, and you need

456
00:27:56,559 --> 00:28:03,920
to start now with going after the possible Democrat opponents

457
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,400
in Cuomo. And I think I am the only other

458
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,359
person on the face of this earth that loathes and

459
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,000
despises him more than you do.

460
00:28:13,039 --> 00:28:13,799
Speaker 1: You need to.

461
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,759
Speaker 6: Get billboards if your war chest can handle it, at

462
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,759
every bridge, tunnel, road, highway through way in the Tri

463
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,519
State area with his face on it, saying he is

464
00:28:25,559 --> 00:28:29,559
the one that is responsible solely for congestion pricing. It

465
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,920
was his brainchild, and he is the one that was

466
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,279
responsible for no cash bail, which is why we have

467
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,480
the high crime rate that we do rampant throughout the city.

468
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,160
I know you can win this time, and I assure

469
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,440
you I will do anything and everything in my power

470
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,039
to get you elected mayor.

471
00:28:48,119 --> 00:28:53,519
Speaker 8: All right, well, Jacqueline, first off, take this this website

472
00:28:53,519 --> 00:28:55,880
down where you'll find out more things of what I'm

473
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,440
doing beyond just the good time that James Goldlin has

474
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,519
offered me to talk to you about how I could

475
00:29:01,519 --> 00:29:03,839
be a good mayor, a better mayor than what we've seen.

476
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:09,480
Go to sliwa for NYC dot com. That's SLIWAFNYC dot com.

477
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,440
I am building up the war chest. I am strengthening

478
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,680
what I'm doing as a Republican because remember I just

479
00:29:16,839 --> 00:29:18,559
won all five counties.

480
00:29:19,039 --> 00:29:20,319
Speaker 2: That's the first time for me.

481
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,759
Speaker 8: The last time they were opposed to me, but I

482
00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:25,400
won all five county support. I got to get the

483
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,160
petition signed, get the signatures not just for me, but

484
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,519
everyone who's running down ballot and that means the city

485
00:29:31,559 --> 00:29:35,759
council people, the people are running for district leaders, committee people.

486
00:29:35,799 --> 00:29:38,200
I know for those listening out there, you don't understand it,

487
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:42,119
but that's party building, that's building structure. And then once

488
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:46,119
the Democrats have their rumble, if Andrew Cormo jumps into

489
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,880
the race, whoever survives that process at the end of June.

490
00:29:49,799 --> 00:29:51,519
Speaker 2: I'll be ready by then. But they got to build

491
00:29:51,519 --> 00:29:52,079
a war chests.

492
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 8: I'm gonna need money and I've got to make sure

493
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,519
that all the good Republicans are qualified to be able

494
00:29:57,559 --> 00:30:00,559
to run for city council, district leaders and any people

495
00:30:00,839 --> 00:30:02,920
so that we can party build in the process. So

496
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,240
it's a long process. Just go to Sliwa for NYC

497
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,000
dot com and you can help me that way.

498
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,559
Speaker 4: Jack, want to thank you for the call. Judith in Brooklyn.

499
00:30:11,559 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 3: Got to make a quick time a fleeting, but I

500
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:14,920
wanted you have a question for Curtis.

501
00:30:15,559 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 11: Okay, Hi, Curtis, wishing you a lot of luck on

502
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,680
miss Year. On the radio, Curtis listen, something came up

503
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,640
with a caller. I was very annoyed with him. I

504
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,599
felt he was trying to erase your achievements. And I'm

505
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,880
talking about you work so hard as a Guardian Angel

506
00:30:30,079 --> 00:30:33,160
founder for so many decades, and part of your signature

507
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,839
identity is your beret is your jacket, and I have.

508
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 12: To love it. And I feel that you could really

509
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,279
dress the success keeping that beret in jacket that's your symbol,

510
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,480
but also put on a great pair of drupans, the

511
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:49,799
best beautiful white shirt, gorgeous tie, and I think you

512
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:50,680
look fabulous.

513
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 8: What do you think your fashioniche advice is spot on,

514
00:30:55,319 --> 00:30:57,000
so you'll see me in the campaign.

515
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 2: I will have the signature red beret.

516
00:30:59,319 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 8: But I will have this suit, I will have the tie,

517
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,160
I will have the shoes that are appropriate to what

518
00:31:05,279 --> 00:31:09,039
people associate with a serious candidate. So I appreciate all

519
00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:12,440
that advice, and trust me, this time I'm going to

520
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,960
be reminding people. You know, you didn't listen to me

521
00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:17,640
the last time, and James Golden, then I turn out

522
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,559
to be right on everything that I said.

523
00:31:19,359 --> 00:31:21,839
Speaker 4: About damn thing, every single thing.

524
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 2: So why wouldn't you listen to me again? And this

525
00:31:24,319 --> 00:31:26,079
time give me the opportunity.

526
00:31:26,519 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 8: And because remember the definition of insanity is to continue

527
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,599
to do the same things over and over and expect

528
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,079
different results. So whether it's Adams Cuomo or any of

529
00:31:36,119 --> 00:31:39,880
the other liberal progressives as socialists, all you're doing is

530
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,359
making the same mistakes over and O. Give me an opportunity.

531
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,720
You know who Curtis slee is. You can't bribe me, James,

532
00:31:47,119 --> 00:31:50,000
you can't buy me. Everybody, even my enemies, will say,

533
00:31:50,039 --> 00:31:51,440
you can't buy Curtis Sliwa.

534
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,279
Speaker 2: You can't bribe Curtish Sleiwa.

535
00:31:53,559 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 8: And wouldn't that be a nice touch that City Hall

536
00:31:55,720 --> 00:32:01,960
will not be for sale when Curtis leew was mayors.

537
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 3: It would not only be Look, Curtis, this is an

538
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,480
opportunity to break not only a cycle that's been going

539
00:32:05,519 --> 00:32:08,960
on for decades, this is an opportunity to break a

540
00:32:09,079 --> 00:32:11,880
cycle in New York that has gone on for two centuries.

541
00:32:12,319 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 4: Folks, Really, when you really get.

542
00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:17,079
Speaker 8: Down to it now, you'll be proud to know. James,

543
00:32:17,119 --> 00:32:19,240
I was helping to close a wet shop the other

544
00:32:19,359 --> 00:32:22,400
day because of the spread of bird flu. I saw

545
00:32:22,519 --> 00:32:25,680
how the fowl and birds were treated. I'm not eating

546
00:32:25,799 --> 00:32:28,480
chicken any longer. I gave up meat and fish and

547
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:29,799
venison long ago.

548
00:32:30,039 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 2: I'm not quite the.

549
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,200
Speaker 8: Level you are yet, but that experience made me feel

550
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,559
like numb. I'm sorry these are our friends, These are

551
00:32:38,599 --> 00:32:42,319
our feathered friends, these are our animal friends. I cannot

552
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:46,279
ever again eat that flesh. I'm sorry for everyone who does.

553
00:32:47,319 --> 00:32:50,480
I'm not arguing with you, but I made that decision

554
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,119
because I saw what those creatures of God go through

555
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,759
get torturing and I mean butchering and slaughtering in the

556
00:32:57,799 --> 00:33:00,839
most inhumane ways. Can never do that again, James, and

557
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,720
I thank you because you've talked about that before.

558
00:33:04,759 --> 00:33:08,599
Speaker 3: Wow, Curtis, thank you, Curtis. Curtis se is such a

559
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,799
dear friend of mine and I love this man. He

560
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,960
is a hero. This is the man who doesn't talk.

561
00:33:15,559 --> 00:33:18,519
He put his life on the line and puts his

562
00:33:18,559 --> 00:33:22,359
life on the line for his fellow man. Give back.

563
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,440
It is my message. Okay, Curtis, you got to come

564
00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:27,920

565
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,880
I want to talk more in depth. You got to

566
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,519

Speaker 2: My pleasure and God bless you. ROBERTA.

Speaker 4: Some people don't like change.

589
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 3: They're not talking about dismantling the postal service at all.

590

This is Chris Jasper. This was this song was amazing.

608
00:36:56,360 --> 00:37:00,119
the early ROBERTA. Flax? I mean these things? These records

609
00:37:00,119 --> 00:37:04,119

00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,280
all of these that record just blew it up for her.

611

00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,719
