| 0:56.4 | still Trump has the veto power. Mike, what are you trying to say? What are you talking about? Philibuster, who cares? It's like, too complicated. You think? All right. And the second thing is, how about Vincent doing a podcast? Yeah, he'd be very good at that. He'd be good at that. Everybody else has a podcast. Yeah, I'm willing to support it. I'm willing to support it. Really? How much? |
| 1:09.0 | You know, a grand or two. Really? Oh, all right. That sounds good. All right. We'll pass it along to him. Let's go to Mara in Nevada. Mara, how you doing? |
| 1:12.4 | Oh, good. I'm talking to you. Chau, Vince, a good podcast. |
| 1:15.6 | Mark, we live out here in the desert. |
| 1:20.4 | We have cameras around the house, plus every window, every door is along. |
| 1:26.5 | In addition, I, an old lady, I wear a panic button around my next day and night. |
| 1:31.7 | Why? If I fall down here, my apartment is the side of their house, I press the button. |
| 1:35.4 | They come and rescue me, or the fire department comes and rescues me. |
| 1:38.2 | How come Nancy with the sick old ladies? You didn't have any of these precautions? |
| 1:40.4 | That's a good point. |
| 1:41.2 | Do you have an Apple Watch? |
| 1:42.8 | I do not have because I can't, I'm on a landline. I can't, I have low vision marks. You know, I can't navigate the Apple. Because the good thing with an Apple watch, if you fell, it will automatically call for help. It knows you fell. Okay. All right. I understand that's better than what I have. I could wear it in the shower. you know what my son said to me when I told him I could wear it in the shower? He said he feels so sorry for any firemen got to see me naked in the shower. Oh, please. I bet you a million firemen have seen you naked through the ears of course. Oh, man. You're kidding. Now, you know, Mark, I'm in the shower. |
| 2:54.4 | I know I have to worry about falling. I have to worry about being naked in the shower. All right. You're making everybody sick. You've got to stop. Not kidding. No, you know, the good thing about that Apple Watch, if you fall, take a real fall, it will automatically call for help. I know. It's better than what I have because I could knock myself unconscious and then I can't press the phone. Yeah, but the Apple Watch would call. In fact, if you take a big fall, it says it's going to call, and unless you stop it, it makes the call. All right, Mara, thanks for calling. Let's go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing good morning mark yes mike i forget the context on monday you mentioned murph griff and mike douglas and got me thinking about those two |
| 3:00.0 | old great old shows you know they were on the air between the two of them for like 45 years and |
| 3:04.8 | i went to i mdb and was looking up their guest lists. It's unbelievable. I mean, from Jackie Mason to Jane Fonda, Charles Nelson, Lately. I mean, Mike Douglas had John Lennon co-host with him for a week, which is, you know, in today's day and age, you couldn't have a more diametrically opposed to these looking, you know, characters, Mike Douglas and John Lennon. And also, people forget that Dinah had a show back then. Dina Shore every day. The Star was on. Yeah, Dinah Shore. You know, I was talking to Dick Cavett once about this, because he was famous for having the biggest names in the world, names nobody else could get, like Catherine Hepburn and Marlon Brando and Orson. He'd have all these unbelievable names. And he said, this is a couple of years ago, he said he can't do it today because who would those names be today? There's nobody today that's a big star to everybody. It's true. Yeah, you know, like Bad Bunny, he's a big, big star. He's about the hottest selling recording artists, but half the population never heard of him. Right. So, name a star that everybody would know or want to hear right now. There isn't anybody. And with social media, they don't really have to do those things. You know, that's the other thing. You know, back in the day, even Jane Fonda had to go on the Merle Griffin show to get, you know, a movie talked about or whatever where she was. Oh, yeah, that's the other thing. I used to go on those shows. You had to plug something, but, uh, right. Yeah. All right, Mike, thanks for calling. It's a big problem today because, hey, take, right here at Eyehart, we have the 5,67 biggest radio stations in the world right here on this floor. |
