Summary

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- California Governor Gavin Newsom is now mimicking President Donald Trump’s social media style. For example, after Dana Perino critiqued his strategy to garner attention, Newsom’s press office posted to X: “DANA ‘DING DONG’ PERINO (NEVER HEARD OF HER UNTIL TODAY!) IS MELTING DOWN BECAUSE OF ME, GAVIN C. NEWSOM! FOX HATES THAT I AM AMERICA’S MOST FAVORITE GOVERNOR (‘RATINGS KING’) SAVING AMERICA—WHILE TRUMP CAN’T EVEN CONQUER THE ‘BIG’ STAIRS ON AIR FORCE ONE ANYMORE!!! TRUMP HAS “LOST HIS STEP” AND FOX IS LOSING IT BECAUSE WHEN I TYPE, AMERICA NOW WINS!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.” While outlets like Pod Save America and Politico praise the posts, are they going to help win Newsom any support in 2028? Unlikely. 3:30pm- Rich is taping at Fox News on Friday and is on vacation next week. And when he comes back, he’ll be preempted for a Philadelphia Phillies broadcast—consequently, it is possible Rich will be able to break his own record for shortest radio show in 1210 WPHT history. His previous record was 13-minutes! 3:50pm- Manhattan Federal Judge Richard Berman has rejected the Justice Department’s request to release grand jury testimony related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Mikey Sherrill, the Democrat nominee for Governor of New Jersey, has put out her comprehensive energy plan, which basically involves distracting everybody from what actually caused energy rates to go up, which is King Philip the Unaccountables energy plan and trying

0:40.3

to blame PJM, which is the group that is the energy grid operator.

0:46.8

So she's promising an investigation into them and calling on the Attorney General and saying

0:51.5

on day one, she'll investigate them.

0:53.5

And also Trump. So that's happening as the king, his royal ruggedness, King Philip the unaccountable,

0:59.4

letting you know he does not want to be like the mayor in Jaws until you can't swim, but he

1:07.9

doesn't want you to swim, which also is an analogy that makes no sense, since the mayor in Jaws was literally telling everybody to go swim. But Murphy has no clue how to even be, like he can't even be funny. So he's telling you can have a beer on the beach, though. And I don't know if that's an official royal decree or not, but we'll examine that as the show goes on because we have a hurricane coming up,

1:28.5

and we're not going to get any of it, but the waves are going to be rough, so, you know, everybody has to panic.

1:33.6

And the other thing, too, is that apparently now, no more yoga pants, no more leggings, Gen Z has decided they've dictated it.

1:46.2

Baggy sweatpants are back.

1:48.3

So there goes my reason for going for the gym.

1:51.8

It's the only reason I had left, and that's out.
