Good idea, friends. | |
Mrs. L and I came back from our evening downtown in the in the city in New York City. | |
It is 1037 p.m. | |
That's late for us. | |
It is. | |
It's very late. | |
Late on a Saturday night. | |
And we wanted to share with you. | |
America is back in business, whether anybody likes it or not, is the God's Honest Truth. | |
We are ready to go. | |
We are ready to talk about what we did this Eve. | |
We want to share with you so many of our ideas and thoughts and comments. | |
And we just wanted to just jump into it. | |
Darling, without further ado, tell everybody what we went to, what we saw, what we were part of this eve. | |
Well, we had a wonderful evening celebrating Columbus Day. | |
So the whole Columbus Day kind of weekend in New York City, which is such a great thing to see. | |
There are so many different activities and festivities and people acknowledging Christopher Columbus. | |
Exactly. | |
And we had a beautiful dinner. | |
81st annual. | |
Right. | |
81st Annual at Cipriani Wall Street, which is a beautiful venue. | |
I believe it's an old banking building. | |
I would have to double-check myself on that. | |
The architecture is beautiful. | |
And I would say it was about 500 people. | |
And it was just a beautiful night of community, of opera music, of celebrating. | |
You might want to take some of the celebrants. | |
You might want to explain some of the honorees. | |
But it really felt good that New York was back and that it was black tie and that people were happy and food was flowing and music. | |
It was just a beautiful evening. | |
It was also the um it was the 81st uh annual um celebration of the Columbus. | |
I forget the name. | |
We have I'm gonna look we have we have the um look at us. | |
We're a little tired. | |
We uh let me see. | |
Oh, this is wild for us to be up. | |
Me? | |
Normally I'm getting I'm getting up about this time. | |
Let me just see something. | |
There we go. | |
Columbus celebrate this is the uh honey, I don't have my glasses. | |
There we go. | |
Oh, okay. | |
No, it's the heritage, the columns. | |
Right, celebrate. | |
No, it's this 81st annual Columbus celebration. | |
And um But it's also Cipriani Wall Street. | |
But it's the Columbus Society, the whole, but they take in tremendous amount of um, they spend their energies and monies on scholarships for underprivileged, and they had a recipient there who just became what they say, an assistant DA. | |
Yeah, an ADA here in New York. | |
So I hope she's going to be changing some of the laws here. | |
I'll just leave that for another program. | |
Um, but wasn't it was hosted by Maria Bardaromo. | |
Marina Barterromo. | |
Um and it also honored, among others, among some great uh Italian-American notables, the owner, owners, I should say, of WABC and others, John and Margot Cats and Matides. | |
I've been doing radio for a long time. | |
These are the best radio owners. | |
They let you alone and they want you to go wild. | |
They're the best. | |
And everything. | |
He is an American, he's a stalwart. | |
There is no board of directors, there's nobody to be worried about. | |
He just basically says, this is my this is like his his love. | |
So he was one of the honorees. | |
Uh it was it was something. | |
I mean, it was something along with Margot, make that because they were quite the team. | |
And uh my good friend, our good friend Mark Simone, known him for 30 plus years, was here. | |
I think Cuomo was here. | |
I didn't see I saw we saw Curtis walking on the street. | |
I didn't see him inside the venue. | |
Governor Cuomo was there. | |
Uh Governor Governor Patterson was great guy, former Governor David Patterson, his wife Mary. | |
Doctor was very interesting. | |
Oh, Fabrizio. | |
That was an honoree for his work. | |
Uh, his whole family was there to sort of see the different generations. | |
But here's the bottom line. | |
This is what's so great. | |
While this was a celebration of American uh uh uh Italian Americans and others who came here who love this country, who assimilated, who moved in and and added to America. | |
Today you've got these bastards, these Antifa folks being funded by by foreign types, people who want to destroy the fabric fabric of our country. | |
and and this this it was just what an incredibly antithetical uh comparison, if you will. | |
These people came, they love this country, and all of them they talked about their humble backgrounds and oh my god, but they came here and they didn't demand, they didn't demand that people everybody speak Italian, or demand that no, they assimilated, and I'm telling you something, it was it was something. | |
But what did I say to you at one point? | |
I it was such a feel good, right? | |
Communicate community, and I turned to you at one point and I said something to the effect of they hate all of us in this room. | |
Yes, Antifa dies. | |
Antifa hates. | |
Yes, yes. | |
Why? | |
You know, such an American community, New York, yeah, people dressed up, people laughing, sharing, and they hate us. | |
John Jelane says, help me. | |
I'm trapped in a woman's body. | |
I don't know what that means. | |
Just kidding. | |
Says, oh, the immigrants that came to America from Europe were trying to get away from something. | |
Yep. | |
We also met somebody who was very interesting. | |
We had we had a um, you know, it's funny. | |
You know what we do. | |
I know what we we we watched this together. | |
Um, and we're familiar with this particular platform. | |
The film making us very, very nice. | |
She's originally from Poland, and she knew who I was and knew who you were. | |
And she was trying to explain to a friend of hers who who's not particularly hit, but she said, I love the way you talk about these things because of the fact that she's from Europe, and Europeans know what's happening. | |
They understand, they read, they understand how how a how a uh a democracy or a free country can be lost in a heartbeat. | |
I'm finding myself right now saying stuff that if you had told me, I don't know, when I was 20, I said, Oh, this is that right wing typical, you know, yeah, you know, I think I swear to God, we are in the middle. | |
How many times have I told you we're in the middle of a civil war? | |
We are in a civil war, and they're not Marxists. | |
Stop saying that. | |
They're not Marxists, a Marxist, I can deal with a Marxist, I can deal with. | |
I understand it. | |
These are just anti-American, not even anarchists, they just want to destroy. | |
They have no ideology, they don't have anything. | |
A Marxist will promote Marxian ideology, planned government, class warfare, whatever it is. | |
Antifa, these are just thugs, these are the brown shirts, these are the fascists, these are people. | |
Stop. | |
We we've got to stop using Marxism, and no, no, no. | |
I can deal with a Marxist. | |
Zoran Mamdani is not a Marxist, he's on a democratic socialist. | |
These are phonies, they just hate, hate people, they hate our society, and you elevate them, you elevate them by giving them a name of Marxist. | |
I I know at least two Marxists. | |
They can be smart people. | |
I don't want their ideology. | |
No, no, this is different. | |
By the way, for those who just tuned in, we went to the 81st Avenue, it's a Columbus 80 first, not Avenue. | |
Yeah, 8st annual. | |
Annual. | |
Um Italian Heritage Society. | |
Okay, who does a wonderful job. | |
First of all, they put on they put on the Columbus State Parade. | |
Well, you'll be at that on Monday with WABC Radio. | |
I know we have a Nor'easter coming. | |
I'll be along. | |
Uh they're putting a tent up on Fifth Avenue. | |
But um, I hope it doesn't rain like that. | |
It'll ruin it because they do get a big turnout with the Columbia Station. | |
We'll see what happens. | |
So we'll see what goes on with that. | |
But um, it really was a lovely evening. | |
And the city is packed. | |
Are you noticing this? | |
New York is so bad. | |
What's everybody doing their and this is the financial difference? | |
This is fide die, as they say. | |
This is this is Wall Street. | |
This is just it was packed. | |
By the way, the streets, if you've ever been to Wall Street, the streets are like there's nothing you guys, but when we were kids, because you usually say that, um, you know, it was a ghost town on Saturdays and Sundays area. | |
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
But now they have hotels and they have restaurants and bars, young people bar hopping. | |
I saw a lot of young people. | |
Did you see that? | |
Yep. | |
Um, and you never had you know what I also noticed? | |
I was thinking back, you never had those corner markets. | |
I saw a couple of those. | |
It was strictly financial buildings when Friday was done, shut down. | |
Yep. | |
Real I was really surprised. | |
It was really something they had uh and also it was reminding me of um those those uh most of us American, most have at least if many of us have like the story of like our grandparents who had who had uh who had a grandmother or grandfather from another country who made me maybe didn't speak English, or who was your favorite, like who was your favorite, like who is your favorite relative? | |
Like, oh, you have some that it you like, especially if you have a bunch of them, like older, not not cousins, cousins are like collateral watered down siblings. | |
They're not really still you know how it is watered down seven well. | |
We did hear a lot that common theme of grandparents or parents coming here, not speaking English, working hard, selling apples and bananas. | |
Remember that story? | |
And just assimilating into society wanting better for their kids. | |
Remember that? | |
Right. | |
Everybody said the same. | |
Their kids and grandkids they want better for. | |
What was his name? | |
Malio or whatever. | |
He was he he ran a marriage raid. | |
His father was uh he in Italy, born in Italy, uh moved to this country. | |
He was like just a fruit vendor, and went to World War II. | |
Somehow they went to Belfast Ireland for something. | |
I don't know what it was. | |
He had a six-week leave. | |
Yeah, sixty weeks. | |
They went to Ireland, met his wife in Belfast. | |
So here's this Italian guy during World War II who didn't really speak his English wasn't that great. | |
Meets this Belfast girl, and he lives in from Park Avenue in the Bronx. | |
You know, Fifth Avenue, Park Avenue goes all the way up past uh doesn't it go? | |
Did it go past Harlem River and then we go straight up way up or East Harlem, maybe goes all the way up. | |
So anyway, so his his parent the girl's parents, this fellow's mother's Irish parents says, We ought to marry this guy. | |
He's got his own business and he lives on Park Avenue. | |
Well, he had a it was sold bananas and fruit. | |
But it was this it was this story, all of them fighting, all of them serving out the best part of the story. | |
So she thought I have to marry this guy. | |
Park Avenue New New York, they heard all these stories how glamorous it is, beautiful. | |
But that part of Park Avenue, it was like you know, when a third floor walk-up, you know, overlooking the railroad tracks kind of thing. | |
She wrote home or something, like I don't know why all these you know people are so talking so much about glamorous park avenue kind of thing. | |
Um, but that was a cute story. | |
It was one story after another, one afternoon. | |
But that common theme of family of I dare say faith kind of thing. | |
You have to have a lot of faith to come here not speak English at all, no money in your pocket, start some kind of business, work hard for your kids, instill in them, right, to work hard, nobody gives you anything. | |
And so how dare how dare these people today, right? | |
And also the way they're acting after we sat in a room uh of 500 people like this. | |
And also they had the just the idea of how people came, they worked hard, and there was also which is so wonderful, no mention of the mafia. | |
I'm so goddamn tired of all this mafia, the mafia channels and this thugs and and um you know that's I'm so bored with it. | |
The same ten people telling the same ten stories. | |
Well, this is no, but let me say something on YouTube. | |
You've seen them, it's the same people. | |
They've got these people who keep who keep listening I guess it's interesting, but it's like that is a part of it. | |
That's a part of this a little bit. | |
Well, you know, that that's I'm gonna talk about seriously. | |
I saw something like Mario Cuomo was bigger than this. | |
He hated the godfather. | |
I'm not gonna say to forget about this, but it's nice to hear something other than organized crime. | |
Well, what do you mean? | |
Godfather, no, I I'm digressing, but Godfather reminded me of Diane Keaton, who oh I don't know why that bothers me. | |
I was just gonna say because I don't know her. | |
I think it's because I have a connection back to high school and going to see on a Saturday night for one dollar in New Jersey, Annie Hall. | |
We had we had a lot of good movies during that period. | |
You know, we get goodbye girl, turning point. | |
I remember going to as a teenager, all those movies with a friend of mine. | |
And um, I know it bothers me, but she was you know that's all. | |
Sometimes remember she was in Godfather? | |
Yep. | |
Yeah. | |
Kay. | |
Okay. | |
She was um, she was also great, but also uh was it Hannah and her sisters? | |
Was that it? | |
She was in that. | |
Woody Allen had some great and Annie Hall was abby. | |
You even dressed like that. | |
That that was a good look in 77. | |
I think it was 77. | |
That was that was an alternate look. | |
Right. | |
You know what also was an alternate look, which was very important. | |
People don't talk talk about it now, but it was true. | |
This is Madonna. | |
Madonna gave you a look too. | |
Not you, but I'm saying that kind of uh whatever. | |
No, I think I gave her the look. | |
This is I've got to stole my she stole my look. | |
I've got to say something right now. | |
Stole my look. | |
Please, please don't hold this against her. | |
This is my opinion right now. | |
There's something to me so sad, so sad. | |
I'm sorry, I'm uh maybe I'm old fashioned. | |
I don't know. | |
But when you see somebody who's trying to be tries to look nicely appointed, and they're walking around, women, and they got a big tattoo on their back. | |
It doesn't look good. | |
Dear God, stop this. | |
Just doesn't look good. | |
Stop this. | |
Oh my God. | |
So what happened at the party? | |
Why do you come home so early? | |
We're done. | |
It was a dinner and got done at 10 o'clock. | |
First of all, the party was over at 10 o'clock. | |
Yeah. | |
So it was a dinner, it was a big deal. | |
Six to six. | |
Cocktail, six days. | |
That's what it is. | |
500 people from six to ten, a sit-down dinner, and then a little bit of Gloria Gaynor at the end. | |
They had a little bit of a dance floor. | |
Yeah, they were dancing. | |
And then that's it. | |
No sane man will dance. | |
When we dance, it's very it's very filthy. | |
But we only dance in private. | |
Very, very, very somebody says tramp stamp. | |
Tramp stamp is different. | |
First of all, you wouldn't see a tramp stamp. | |
I don't like that name. | |
No, but no, no, wait, wait. | |
But you wouldn't see a tramp stamp on a gown. | |
Tramp stamp means lower. | |
Is it different? | |
It's in the back. | |
It's in the back. | |
It's like, well, I see the wrong name. | |
This is like on the arms and on the shoulder and around the neck. | |
Who puts all the cobwebs and spider webs? | |
What is the listen? | |
It's artistic freedom, honey. | |
Whatever. | |
I'm not saying there should be a law against it. | |
I'm just saying I'm not saying it should be prohibited. | |
But there's no class. | |
It's trashy. | |
They think it's a work of artists. | |
Jesus is. | |
Oh, another thing else. | |
I cannot believe. | |
Nobody. | |
The holding the fork like this. | |
Why do you the cello player? | |
Who holds it? | |
Because they like you. | |
I'm looking at everybody with their fork holding now. | |
Oh my. | |
It was bad. | |
Is there anybody? | |
Anybody? | |
We also whenever you know it's interesting. | |
We always get the vegetable stuff. | |
Because we wouldn't go for this chile and sea bass stuff. | |
We go for the vegetable. | |
It was like a ratatouille thing. | |
It was great because it's always that's the stuff they're gonna make fresh. | |
Not fresh, but it's fresher. | |
Tends to be better. | |
I thought it was very good the whole night. | |
And that was it. | |
We're done. | |
We got it. | |
We got a swag bag. | |
But we wanted to come back and tell you that you know what? | |
God bless America. | |
No, that was beautiful. | |
God bless America. | |
This is still the land of opportunity. | |
This is still for a lot of our folks. | |
And it's great to see. | |
And we have to go to a bunch of foreigners who came over here who children who were American-born, but who recognizes to keep asking. | |
We're lucky as hell. | |
And they're trying to take this away from us. | |
Antifa wants to destroy this. | |
What are you going to do about it? | |
Are you going to be in the war? | |
Well, I also hope a lot of, for instance, that doctor that was honored. | |
Oh, he's hanging on Mandy says, Are we allowed to say how gorgeous the wife is? | |
Are you kidding? | |
Thank you, Mandy. | |
It's end of the day, but I oh trying together. | |
She's end of the day. | |
You should see she's got a style. | |
She's got a possession. | |
She's got style. | |
Isn't it a Billy Jones? | |
That was Uptown Girl or something. | |
No, she's gonna style. | |
You're right. | |
I can't say one. | |
I want to say something before I forget. | |
I do hope, for instance, the doctor started out saying that his two sons were there with their wives. | |
The dad pointed out when he gave his acceptance speech, is thank you thanking everybody how they work and have young children in this demanding world and he admires them and thanks them. | |
I so I hope now that next generation continues all of this tradition and continues pushing. | |
That's what I hope for. | |
Because this is the breaking point right now. | |
Our age is still doing it, right? | |
Can you imagine what would have happened in the 30s if there had been some Antifa? | |
You take you take a bunch of folks who fled Eastern Europe, common East Europe, poverty, a lot of it Europe elsewhere. | |
I'm sorry. | |
And they've always given Europe such a bad, bad bad. | |
Uh you know, like uh, you know, European parentheses white. | |
But I like to see what what do you think somebody in the Bronx in the 30s would have done if he got a hold of some Antifa trying to destroy us? | |
A bunch of thugs showing up. | |
Oh in the Bronx. | |
No, but these people are serious. | |
They're they fought for this country. | |
It's the most important thing. | |
Yes. | |
But I was also happy to see Mandy, Mandy, Mandy Clear says, by the way you both look wonderful, but she is just something else. | |
I'm in awe. | |
There you go. | |
See, thank you very much. | |
But I'm in awe of my fantastic husband who always sticks out in a crowd, who always is the smartest one in the room. | |
I'm sorry. | |
But also brings a sense of humor. | |
Because some people and modesty. | |
A lot of people don't have a sense of humor at all. | |
Or they don't understand sarcasm. | |
No. | |
Or we both kind of suffer from talking fast. | |
Well, but people won't catch on. | |
But or we don't see the obvious the obvious um sometimes the uh you know, today they had they had a silent auction, and we all had paddles, they dropped these things. | |
And I thought to myself, you know, it'd be funny if all of a sudden somebody went to the John, if I picked up the paddle and started going like this, you know, 422, 422, and then put it up. | |
So type of let's say 422 goes to the John, but when he goes to the John, I keep holding up his paddle and I put it back down, and all of a sudden he gets notified. | |
You've been you've been eighteen thousand dollars on a Valenciaga bag or something. | |
I thought it was funny. | |
Listen, they're a lot of money. | |
So I kind of told it, I know that. | |
But I told this kind of joke, and they looked at me like Yeah, they well, why would you want to? | |
I say, no, no, imagine if I if if you if you were gonna hold the paddle up, well, why would you do that? | |
It's a joke. | |
Anyway, uh no, but they brought in a lot. | |
150,000 just for scholarships. | |
No more because they had then um some private donations and things like that. | |
So they actually did very well. | |
But I thought um I thought the auctioneer was interesting. | |
He was running. | |
Oh my god. | |
At one point he could he couldn't breathe. | |
Remember, so many people were holding up their paddles. | |
He and he was running and running. | |
He had sneakers on. | |
Running, but he had a white dinner jacket and sneakers, and he was there. | |
There were 500 people there. | |
That's a good thing. | |
He was running from you might say, held up the number and then they would flash it on a big screen. | |
Like shaming you on your you know, and people thought he was a w one of the waiters. | |
Yes, yeah, white jacket. | |
Very funny. | |
Is that right? | |
A white tinner jacket though, and and uh he had a white dinner jacket. | |
I guess he chose to wear that in October? | |
I don't know. | |
Maybe on purpose. | |
And then all the waiters and waitresses had like white jackets on. | |
Yeah, perhaps. | |
But he was very I thought he was very good. | |
Perhaps. | |
I thought he was very good. | |
But you have a style. | |
How would you describe your style? | |
What would you call your style? | |
Me? | |
Yours, yes, yes. | |
I I don't think I have a style. | |
You have a style. | |
Yes, you do. | |
You got your own style. | |
I don't know what the name is. | |
I don't know what the name of it. | |
Warrior, warriors. | |
Stop it. | |
No, who would be the best uh who would be the best uh see this is it's kind of um uh it's kind of uh classic with an edge. | |
Can I say yeah, classic with an edge and a little dare I say I a little bit of uh uh I'm gonna say a little bohemian sometimes, artful, artful. | |
When I was younger, much more bohemian, but you can't do it. | |
No, but you do this. | |
I know you can't do it again. | |
I can't walk around in raids and cowboy hats. | |
I would look foolish. | |
No, but accessorized time it looked good. | |
Accessorizing she's very good. | |
She's very, very good with that. | |
I'm into all that scarves and you also like costume jewelry. | |
I love it. | |
That's a very interesting thing. | |
You know, uh from thrift stores and things like that that you know comes from 40s, 50s, 60s, even 70s. | |
I love all that stuff and scarves and all that. | |
That's the thing. | |
The same way to accessorize. | |
And also, um, I'm still into Sprezza tour. | |
You're spritzatour. | |
Spezza tour. | |
Sprezza tour. | |
Janira and Yani. | |
Anyway, so one is 11 o'clock. | |
And we just wanted to jump on and say we love you. | |
But we're we were feeling this motion, this feeling of ah, this this water. | |
Well, actually, it's very patriotic. | |
I think we should use the word patriotic because that feeling in New York, yes, certainly. | |
I'm wherever all these wonderful people live, they may feel it more. | |
And you do feel it more in small towns, depends where you live, obviously. | |
Um, but we haven't been feeling it in New York. | |
Yet there are so many people like us in New York. | |
So that's that's the problem I'm always having, you know, because people are whispering, people are like us, everybody must come out. | |
Um, you know, we've got this mayor's race coming up. | |
We know what needs to be done, people better get busy. | |
We've got just about a month left, a little less than a month. | |
Yeah, and this is crunch time, right? | |
I think it can be done, the course change, but people have to work really hard in the next few weeks. | |
But it was great to see flags and to see tradition, to see families, right? | |
Food, hear these stories, people just happy for a few hours. | |
And I'll say it again to retain your culture, to retain your language, but to assimilate, not to have prayer call calls for prayer at three in the morning, like in Dearborn, Michigan, not to have people seek as you would say, | |
Sharia law, or or to have an Islamist tsunami take over a town, not to just represent American values, but to replace it. | |
They want to mimic where they left. | |
We can't let this happen. | |
You hear what I'm saying? | |
We can't let this happen. | |
Assimilation is one thing, that's terrific. | |
We are not gonna lose our values, we're not gonna lose our language, we're not gonna lose our culture, our traditions, our values, our our music, our food. | |
We will supplement it. | |
We will uh tweak it, fine. | |
No, not a problem. | |
But we are we are this close from this, and that's one thing that that even Trump can't really address as much as we can, we can culturally. | |
By the way, be on the look for I mean, this this um Letitia James just her case is worse and worse. | |
And John Bolton, they say they're gonna get him again. | |
Bring it on. | |
This makes sure it works. | |
The comi thing you can say goodbye to. | |
That's a dog. | |
But what are you gonna do? | |
I think why did they parade him in a backdoor? | |
Parade and others. | |
No, no, no parading at all. | |
There was no parading, there was parading, uh, no parading is right. | |
But Hillary Clinton. | |
And also, did you see how they're trying to say Joe Biden is fully sick and that something tells me they might be doing this in a kind of as a as a preparation for a Sicilian flu. | |
But you know what I think. | |
You want to hear what I think about that? | |
What? | |
And now you might think I'm crazy when I say this. | |
As tough as people think President Trump is, I think one of the things he lacks is he goes soft sometimes. | |
Yes, absolutely. | |
And I think again, I have no knowledge of this. | |
I'm just in my mind and how I create these scenarios in my mind, would say something like let him go. | |
He he's he's sick and he and he's old now, just let it go. | |
I could see him doing that. | |
He did that with Hillary. | |
And he did that with Hillary, remember that? | |
Because they said, remember his three things. | |
Uh uh build a wall, bring a swamp, lock her up. | |
Remember that? | |
He didn't lock her up. | |
They that that they still got away with murder with that one. | |
But we have a lot, but we have a lot, but we have a lot to work. | |
Listen, what I'm saying is we have a lot to work on still, but well, we have to work on things right besides all that. | |
We have to work on the American people and protecting our children and dealing with this artificial intelligence. | |
Tell them about that. | |
Tell them about I'm still yesterday. | |
Um the warriors were part of a wonderful event here in New York City yesterday. | |
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, otherwise known as Essex. | |
No, Sussex. | |
Sorry. | |
Essex is New Jersey, Essex County. | |
Okay. | |
Um Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. | |
They have a foundation, the Archwell Foundation, and they're very much into mental health. | |
Harry's into this. | |
Can you hear okay, folks? | |
Can you hear? | |
Yes. | |
Okay, so we'll make sure five by five, just want to make sure it's. | |
Okay. | |
And they've been doing this for about five years now, their foundation. | |
And they come into New York, and there's a building called, it was an old ATT building, an old phone building downtown on Barrack Street, and it's a six-floor studio. | |
And Healthy Minds Project is the name of this. | |
And they throw a fabulous event. | |
I can't even explain it, except it is done so well. | |
There are about 20 different panels, all about mental health and solutions and resources. | |
They bring in loads of young people. | |
Yes, they do yoga things. | |
They had Deepak Chopra. | |
Um, but what I was focused on, and a lot of the others there. | |
Well, it wasn't really, it was the Warriors, and then some of the panelists that I know from around New York and around the country, talking about AI, the artificial intelligence. | |
And an author, he's had a book on the best-selling list, New York Times. | |
Take it as you may for that, 80 weeks now, called The Anxious Generation. | |
And he's an NYU sociological professor, something like that, Jonathan Height. | |
And he's been on every major, the anxious generation. | |
And it is an incredible book, uh, breaking down with the charts, children over the last several decades. | |
And the bottom line for all of this, because I don't want to bore everybody, is that the real decline for children and their mental health, 2015. | |
And also is when 92% of all kids had an iPhone. | |
It's all, it's all connected, and there's all these different studies. | |
It's fantastic. | |
So bringing this forth and and learning from this, and the bottom line is talk to your kids, get off the devices, realize the detriment to their mental health. | |
Realize now we have AI. | |
Where do we go from here? | |
That you have to take charge in some capacity. | |
Because as we work in Washington on these issues and the red tape, we have learned big tech doesn't care. | |
That's really the bottom line. | |
They care about making money. | |
It's profit over people. | |
And so we are going to have to be those warriors to put the guardrails up. | |
The only guardrails that are going to protect is we work on legislation, which is not moving fast enough, okay. | |
And AI is moving fast every single day. | |
Is we're going to have to do the work. | |
And if that means delay is the way, we can't tell you when to buy your child a device. | |
Uh make sure you understand with your schools what is going on. | |
Because they are most states right now have bell to bell, meaning you cannot have a cell phone in the classroom, which is a great thing. | |
Yet they're assigning homework that's being done on computers. | |
Yeah. | |
So, oh, right, at least you might have six hours of of you know, they're conversing, they're uh not distracted, the teachers aren't distracted, the kids aren't distracted. | |
It lessens it. | |
Okay, but they're still gonna have to do the homework on it where the predators remember, wherever the kids are, so are the predators. | |
So we're gonna have to do work in the house, parents, guardians, grandparents, whatever the family dynamic is, but we really have to talk to the kids because the mental decline, and now the AIs cashing in on that mental decline because of the chatbots, which are digital friends. | |
What about Gemini? | |
You said something about it. | |
So there's something, you know. | |
This is something uh I'll be actually the letter's probably there in my email right now. | |
Um started by a great colleague of ours in California. | |
Every school, you're supposed to sign off on any Technical things, right? | |
Like programs, apps your children are using. | |
Yet most parents say we didn't we just thought it's the school, we signed a permission slip, we didn't really look at what they're offering. | |
But what they're doing for homework, again, they're assigning, you use your computer, iPad, right, laptop, Chromebook, is they're slipping this program in called Gemini, which is this AI horrific predator filled kind of thing. | |
So most parents they get the slip, they read it, and little Susie has to be, you know, blah blah blah. | |
Do you give permission for her to and par most parents are busy, they sign it. | |
They're not asking. | |
You know, they see a list of things, but they're not really going in and researching. | |
What is this? | |
What is that? | |
What is Gemini? | |
So that's where we come in. | |
If you have any questions, you can contact, you know, go to our website, Lynn Lynns Warriors.org, Protect Young Eyes.com is a wonderful site for anything technical. | |
We really have to do the work. | |
We have to start putting it in. | |
We have to be the ones that put the guardrails up and get the kids away from devices as much as we can. | |
Because right, we're like we we live in a digital world. | |
It's not but let's make it work for us, the best to our ability. | |
But everybody has to be on the lookout. | |
Chat bots, the most dangerous thing everybody can agree on. | |
There's tons of lawsuits. | |
The first big lawsuit starts in January, holding big tech accountable. | |
And in Washington, we are working on calling this a product so people can sue. | |
Because if you create a chat bot, and you know from our whistleblowers, right? | |
Our big tech whistleblowers, they knew these were harmful, all these things. | |
Right. | |
That is a product you're putting out that is harmful. | |
You can sue. | |
So we have a lot going on with that. | |
I don't want to bore everybody with that. | |
But uh, it's m it's critical. | |
AI, artificial intelligence, you have to wake up. | |
You have I mean what about Roblox, missing Roblox. | |
Here's the thing about Roblox, it's one of the worst. | |
If not, I don't I can't even say the worst because they're all bad. | |
Roblox, so many kids, millions of kids are on Roblox, and every parent I say, Oh, does your child, does your teen, use Roblox? | |
Sure. | |
Do you know what Roblox is? | |
Um I don't know, they build things or something. | |
That is so filled with predators. | |
We have so many problems, again, with all the platforms, Roblox in particular, because so many kids and young kids. | |
Remember, this is the only business. | |
Okay, the internet, right? | |
Because we've had uh what seat belts and bicycle helmets, and uh there's guardrails around things. | |
Why is the internet? | |
And parents are crazy about that, right? | |
Wear a bicycle helmet, wear your seatbelt, uh, don't drink and drive, don't take drugs. | |
But they're not crazy about the internet. | |
That's the disconnect. | |
I do not understand. | |
This is opening your front door and allowing. | |
And remember, all of this predation now is organized crime. | |
It's really not a little a little bit, we might say, for shorthand mom and pop type of things. | |
It is become a global because it's such a runaway train, they know they can get away with it. | |
It has become so global in scope that it is organized crime, and the biggest crime is in this predation, this trafficking of kids, uh, kids buying drugs on Snap. | |
Why is that allowed? | |
Why is any of this allowed with minors? | |
So we're working, there's so many issues, but you have to be at the forefront and help. | |
Everybody's got to help with this one. | |
Well, darling, they're gonna do it. | |
And we want to say to you our dear friends, thank you so so very much. | |
We love you. | |
We think you're terrific. | |
Uh Johnny Jelane, thank you so much for your kindness this Eve. | |
And we're gonna, we're gonna party. | |
Who are you watching here and I you were trying, but you want to well, I mean, I'm embarrassed, but you know, therapeutically after a long day, I I put on the worst shows uh to get in bed at night that one can imagine, just to not think about, you know. | |
And that one would be And last night it was Victoria, Victoria uh Beckham. | |
But you couldn't even watch it. | |
Uh well, I passed out and fell asleep, but I was bored by hers. | |
There's nothing to be well, it's supposed to be a spice girls originally, and I thought, let me just I like to go back sometimes and look at uh writing and characters and just see scenarios for my own, but this was bad. | |
Sometimes it's a three part series, but I got through five minutes, I fell asleep. | |
Another thing I want to tell you, too, another thing. | |
Hey, Charlie Sheen, we've heard your story. | |
It's enough. | |
Well, Charlie has a book out, so Charlie, you why why am I gonna read the book? | |
You've been on Okay, I think it's a good one. | |
I can't believe he's still alive. | |
Well, that's true. | |
No, but I mean all the things he's done, and and people have said he has done the amount of drugs like nobody's ever seen. | |
And he's gay. | |
Well, I don't know what he is, but no, but I'm saying he's just well experimented. | |
You're gay. | |
We say it. | |
I don't know what he is. | |
All I know, I know it's a good one. | |
But he's but if he but if he's putting on a book, but I'm bored. | |
I'm bored by him. | |
But if he's on every goddamn show, why am I gonna buy the book? | |
Charlie, I mean, seriously, let me get this straight. | |
You use drugs by hey, there's something novel. | |
I never thought about it. | |
But you know what? | |
He was a very good actor in the day. | |
Very good. | |
Um, I feel sad his father and brother won't come out and support him in any way. | |
No, because you know, probably kind of in a weird way, kind of jealous a little bit because he was really distressed. | |
I know, but I whatever. | |
But I also, before we finish, I do have to mention something about Bad Bunny. | |
Go ahead. | |
Because I've been thinking about it all night. | |
I do think we have to talk about Bad Bunny, not to the extent because we have a lot of other issues to talk about. | |
Because again, the Super Bowl is one of our last vestiges, I think, of family coming together, friends coming together. | |
And America. | |
America. | |
I keep thinking they unfurled the flag, they have the national anthem, everybody's there, food, right? | |
Family again. | |
And we've been having it for about two decades, kind of these sexual um, like Bruce Springsteen, that wasn't like sexual, but we've had J Lo without her pants on, we've had Shakira shaking and all that stuff. | |
But this is again, our kids are watching, especially teens, especially teen boys. | |
Oh, a lot of girls watch too, the Super Bowl, and they're seeing this hyper sexualized anti-American. | |
Remember, he's uh defund the police, anti-ice, uh, all this crap. | |
It is more of that subliminal. | |
I say messaging to our youth. | |
You know, further breakdown of, but that's I'm wandering a little bit with this one, but I think Maddie says, Oh my god, I thought Bad Bunny was a woman. | |
Might be. | |
And bad, bad. | |
Remember, I did an interview and I kept saying Big Bunny. | |
Yeah, yeah, we might. | |
I think I did too. | |
I thought it was a big bunny, and I'm not sure. | |
But here's what the only thing I'm saying is the worst thing in the world is to tell the NFL, listen, we're going to do Roger Bay. | |
Runs that. | |
Okay. | |
Roger Goodell is gonna say, look, we're we're the NFL. | |
You're not gonna not watch a super. | |
He is a superstar, but he's not a superstar. | |
Take that back. | |
He's he's he has a lot of followers. | |
I don't know how to phrase what he's doing. | |
All they have to do is just say, for example, to say he's he's nothing. | |
Move on. | |
How can you have somebody who publicly proposed? | |
But they're not gonna take ice, but they're not at the Super Bowl. | |
They're not American flag. | |
They're not gonna take him off. | |
They're not going to do it. | |
So the best way to do it is to liquidate his important by saying it doesn't matter. | |
I say turn on another Super Bowl halftime show and watch. | |
That might be nice. | |
Okay, fine. | |
I say write a letter to Roger Goodell. | |
But the word I don't like it. | |
The best way to show this is to say, it's old. | |
Listen, Bunny, you're not you're not saying Miss Bunny. | |
Remember that, Miss Bunny? | |
Or saying Barbara or something. | |
First of all, bunnies are cute. | |
So I don't like calling him even Bad Bunny because that's say listen, bad. | |
Listen, BB. | |
B it's not no BB, the Bad Bunny. | |
But but don't, don't. | |
You're this we've been through this. | |
What are you gonna say? | |
What are you gonna do? | |
We've heard this before. | |
It's an old, it's an old watch this singer song. | |
You're you're not shocking anybody. | |
That'd be the worst. | |
Go ahead, say it. | |
We've heard it a million times. | |
What are you going to do? | |
I don't think it's just about those lyrics. | |
We've been through this before. | |
It is about it. | |
It is about he is very anti-American. | |
Okay, whatever. | |
Well, it's I think it's a big there. | |
They're not gonna take him off. | |
And every time we do this, we make him be more popular. | |
Anyway, it doesn't matter. | |
It's different from this scantal. | |
All the stuff you took off. | |
You wore all that? | |
I had to start getting some things off. | |
Say 10 pounds of uh things are getting heavy around me. | |
You know, um it's not a good it's not a good messaging, and you know God. | |
Well, anyway, God bless America. | |
We love you folks. | |
Thank you so much. | |
We'll see you tomorrow. | |
Thanks for being a warrior, everybody. | |
Thank you, thank you, thank you. | |
Protect our children and support President Trump. | |
Remember, he's the best thing we've got. | |
He's not perfect. | |
He does some pretty weird stuff sometimes, but I love him. | |
And we'll see you tomorrow. | |
