Mark Simone.

Mr. New York, that's what I'm talking about. 710 W-O-R. Hey, we'll take some calls. 800, 321710 is the number. Let's go to Jim in New Jersey. Jim, how you doing? Yeah, hi, Mark. Mark, last weekend I went over to the semi-annual autograph convention in Percipity. Oh, my God. Now, let me ask you a question. This is where they got these old TV stars from sitcoms, these old, why do you go there? Mark, it's really fading. I've met Ernest Borgneye in there, Tony Curtis, but it's really, it's almost gone. I wanted to see one guy, Mark, and he's great. I met him three years ago. We had a nice discussion. I threw some money at him. Who? We talked to, Kent McCord. And he couldn't be more. I hate to admit this, but I looked at pictures from that convention. Kent McCord was the handsome guy on,

was it Adam 12? Yes, yes. He looked like an old man now. Well, he made a little video for me. He's 82,

but here's my point, Mark, I was getting ready to go, and I saw on the other side of the

ballroom a big, come and meet Geraldo Rivera. And I see there, here's Haraldo on the banner with John Yoko and Pete Bennett and Phil Specter. I met both of those guys. So I go over, I give him 50 bucks, and he looked at me, and he goes, that's a lot of money. I said, Haraldi, you know who those guys are on that banner, Pete Bennett and Phil Specter, he had no idea who I was talking about. Why would you give Geraldo? Farado's a multi-millionaire. Why'd you give him 50 bucks? Because I want to get my foot in the door. I don't want anything for nothing. I gave Kent to $100. Kent probably needs it. Long story short, I was trying to talk Beatles with Heraldo, because I'm a Beatles expert, I think. And I said, I said, Herald, here's a little trivia question. What's the last Beatles song that John Lennon played harmonica on? And he looked at me like, blankly. He was really in the days. Well, I don't know. All I can think of is love me do. I mean, would anybody know the... No, that's the first song. I know. But who the hell? John Lennon wouldn't know the answer to that. Yeah, but I'm saying he's supposed to be a beetle expert, this guy. He was friends of them. And I said, the answer is Rocky Raccoon. And he looked at me and said, Lenin played or monica on Rocky Rockoo. Wait, hold on one second.

Heraldo was very close to the raccoon and he looked at me and said Lennon played harmonica and Rocky Racco and Raccoe. Hold on one second.

Harada was very close to these guys. He was very friendly

with John Lennon. He knew them well. He talked

and they don't sit around and talk about

Rocky Raccoon and who played harmonica.

I don't know if you know this, but as

somebody who did all this with the greatest singers ever,

Sinatra and everybody, when you talk to them, they didn't remember anything.

They didn't remember what was on what, they didn't know any of that stuff.

Yes.

But I was leaving and I said, the last thing I want to say, Harambe is Mark Simone is the best.

And he looked at me and he goes, smiled, he goes, Mark Simone. I mean, he looks like he had dementia or something. But anyhow, I think Geraldo's fine. Haraldah and I were great friends. But remember he would for a time he was on against us 10 to noon? Yes, yes, yes. But I want to talk about this. We kind of wiped out his show.

Ever since then, it's over.

Yeah, that's the next one is October, Mark.

I'll report then.

All right.

Thanks for calling.
