Mr. New York. Mark Simone. On the voice of New York. 710. W.O.R. Hey, so everybody, the left-wing news, I'll tell you, this heat wave is unprecedented. We've never had a heat wave. Never. A heat wave like this. Why in July? Well, you know, if you remember, every July, you had a sweltering heat wave in the 40s, 50s, 30s, 60s. Hey, you go back to the 1950s. There's like 4,000 movies that were made about how hot it gets in the summer. Remember the seven-year itch, Marilyn Monroe? That's what the movie was about. The guy's wife, it's so brutally hot in the city that they have to leave and go to the country. There's a movie back then called The Long Hot Summer. There's a million of the cats skills. Remember where you go to the cat? That was the whole idea of the cat skills. It was too hot to stay in the city, so you go to the mountains. Go back to the 60s. Martha and the Vandela's heat wave.

There were a million songs about how hot it was.

Hot town, summer in the city.

Back on my neck getting dirt and gritty.

And what were they crazy?

It was hot back then.

Don't anybody tell you this is something new.

Let's go to Allen in New York City.

Alan, how you doing?

Yes, hi, Mark.

Can you hear me?

Yes.

Okay, in 1995, on the land of July, in Chicago, nearly 700 people had died as a result of heat-related causes.

It was a matter of news.

It was in the news.

It was published.

Well, hang on.

Where was this?

700 dead Chicago.

Chicago, Illinois.

You said earlier that how can you get died from the heat?

Well, listen, I said obviously if you're in the Gobi Desert and you could die from heat. But that same year, I think 7,000 people died of gunshots.
