This is the Mark Simone show.

Mr. New York. On 710, W.O.R. Hey, let's take some calls. 800, 321. 0710 is the number. Let's go to Phil and Brooklyn. Phil, how you doing? Good morning. Great. You mentioned W.O.R.'s Gene Shepard. And I've been listening to a bunch of his old shows online, and everyone rightfully thinks of him as a great storyteller, but it's amazing how accurate

his predictions were about the future. For example, in 1963, he warned about woke people.

storyteller you could just be riveted by his stories became the movie uh a christmas story

about the sled and all that stuff but uh fascinating yeah it's kind of that's there's two things

that create the liberal mentality one it, it's childlike.

It's all emotion, not logic.

And the other thing,

and why do these liberals think they'll tell you what refrigerator,

they'll tell you what you can drive,

they'll regulate it.

Because the other thing is,

they believe that they are much smarter than you.

You know, that whole Davos crowd,

they believe that they are so much smarter than you, that they should decide everything, everything you should do should be
