Summary

The President is in China with 16 major CEOs. Chris Van Hollen questioned FBI Director Kash Patel during a hearing about his drinking and celebrations with hockey teams. Late-night hosts honor Stephen Colbert during his final week on CBS. The state budget finalized by Mayor Mamdani is getting heat for unnecessary spending. Mark interviews comedian and actor Kevin Nealon. Kevin shares his love of hiking and how it inspires his comedy. Mark and Kevin reminisce about the old days of becoming a DJ. Kevin also talks about his new specials and shows. You’ll be surprised to hear who just graduated from Rutgers Business School - Mark says to check it out. If Mamdani’s budget hadn’t passed, your NYC property taxes could have gone up. Film critic and journalist Rex Reed passed away. Mark also asks: Why are so many anti-Semitic protesters wearing masks? Mark interviews author Ann Coulter. Ann says Mamdani and some New Yorkers are happy as long as the rich pay more. Mark asks if illegal immigrants have paid their fair share. Mark and Ann also talk about how colleges have changed and how to bring them back to less political focus.
