00:00:00.000 On the biggest stage in the world, FanDuel is changing the game
00:00:04.120 because sometimes your player gets subbed off and your bet goes with them.
00:00:07.520 Not anymore.
00:00:08.480 With FanDuel's Super Sub, if your player's subbed out, your bet stays in.
00:00:12.800 That's right.
00:00:13.380 If your player leaves a match, your bet continues on with the substitute,
00:00:17.560 so you're still in it until the final whistle.

00:00:53.840 louisiana visit fanduel.com get started now let there be goals this summer on fanduel
00:00:59.980 this is the 77 wabc minicast howard stern thing because trump addressed it trump had something
00:01:13.900 to say about howard and uh stephen colbert and the fact that colbert was canceled i think howard
00:01:21.020 or Trump wants to kind of take responsibility for that.
00:01:27.400 And I said it before, a lot of things, a lot of things, attitudes, ideology,
00:01:32.500 maybe not ideology, but the attitudes of Americans have really changed,
00:01:37.700 or at least the people that had any bit of common sense are being heard right now.
00:01:46.120 They're the ones being heard.
00:01:47.460 They're the ones kind of dictating policy. 0.99
00:01:49.380 The idea that a child of 7, 9, 12 years old can decide their sexuality and the parents are happier than a pig in crap, as they say, to take them to a doctor and have them mutilated and drugged and whatnot. 0.99
00:02:12.600 That, enough. 0.99
00:02:14.980 People said enough.
00:02:16.940 They always have said enough, but it just wasn't being heard.
00:02:21.080 Under this Trump administration, not that Trump had anything to do with it,
00:02:25.840 but the fact that he was elected kind of gave people more confidence to speak out about this,
00:02:32.180 and it gave the people that were pushing it less confidence.
00:02:37.080 But that's how it goes.
00:02:38.420 And I think another one of these things is entertainment.
00:02:42.080 I think these late-night talk shows are dinosaurs.
00:02:46.080 Colbert and Kimmel.
00:02:51.100 Fallon is just kind of,
00:02:53.780 I really don't have any animosity toward Fallon.
00:02:56.900 I think he'll do whatever management tells him to do.
00:02:59.640 And I really think they didn't see Fallon as a guy that could,
00:03:04.800 like a pit bull, go after Trump politically.
00:03:08.080 So they just told him, like, really just leave this stuff alone.
00:03:12.180 Crack an egg over Sidney Sweeney's head.
00:03:15.380 everyone will laugh
00:03:17.200 and that's the tonight show now
00:03:19.740 that's your show
00:03:21.140 so
00:03:22.340 things have changed
00:03:24.740 things have definitely changed
00:03:26.360 and I think people are trying to
00:03:29.420 link this change
00:03:31.940 and Trump
00:03:32.740 to the recent story we heard
00:03:35.440 about Howard
00:03:36.060 serious
00:03:39.460 it's been said that
00:03:41.300 they don't want to re-sign Howard
00:03:43.840 I don't think Howard's going anywhere.
00:03:45.700 I think he would absolutely take $20 million a year.
00:03:50.000 Oh, believe me, he'll be in poverty.
00:03:53.420 Imagine relegated to only $20 million a year.
00:03:58.560 What do you do?
00:04:00.360 Snap benefits, they've taken that away.
00:04:02.100 Imagine Howard trying to buy soda or candy and not being able to
00:04:07.860 because Snap has recently said, you can't do that.
00:04:10.860 only 20 million dollars so people are going oh he wouldn't take that from a hundred million a year
00:04:17.860 to 20 million he'll take it howard's addicted to the microphone and that's not necessarily a bad
00:04:25.480 thing i would have trouble i wouldn't want to stop doing this myself i know there are a lot of people
00:04:32.340 that continue to talk into a microphone regardless of who or more importantly who isn't listening
00:04:40.280 There are people out there that had huge radio careers that, you know, there's 30 people listening to them and they continue doing it because there's this addiction to attention and that microphone.
00:04:54.400 And I think Howard has that.
00:04:56.280 I think he's a little delusional as to where he is right now.
00:04:59.640 He was the greatest radio personality ever.
00:05:05.540 That is undeniable.
00:05:07.560 uh people have accused me of going oh you don't know howard started this or he was
00:05:12.980 huge and what you're saying is you're jealous you're one of like i've never i've always been
00:05:20.280 a fan of howard years ago and i've never said he didn't deserve every accolade he got in radio
00:05:28.060 broadcasting but as time goes on and as you change as a person or not even change maybe the the
00:05:37.540 The camouflage of who you presented yourself as on air comes away.
00:05:45.260 It falls down.
00:05:46.820 And people start seeing you for who you really are.
00:05:49.860 And I think more older people do that.
00:05:52.420 They don't feel committed to a character anymore.
00:05:55.800 And they're like, screw this.
00:05:56.760 I'm just going to be me. 0.88
00:05:57.820 And the Howard that is me, we always knew he was a weirdo. 0.98
00:06:04.400 But this whole political thing, like alienating half of your audience, is telling people that if you're a MAGA supporter, he not only wants you to not listen, but he wants you to die. 0.86
00:06:22.060 Unvaccinated people, he said if they go to the hospital, they should be kicked out and made to die at home.
00:06:28.320 He was a shill, a political shill for the left for the past few years. 0.96
00:06:34.400 And the straw that broke the camel's back was that disgusting interview with Joe Biden.
00:06:42.740 It looked like he put on a relative suit that was too big for him to, you know, show respect.
00:06:49.580 And then he just crowed about the amazing job Joe Biden did and how unbelievably qualified he was.
00:07:00.460 He went on to say how the Biden family was an amazing group of people and that Joe showed he cared.
00:07:09.700 And that's what we need.
00:07:10.820 He called Joe the father of our country.
00:07:14.960 It was so incredibly embarrassing that this was the guy who had the KKK guy on, who had Gilbert Gottfried on.
00:07:26.120 and Gilbert would interrupt Robin's news in such a hilarious, horrible way
00:07:34.000 that you could not breathe while you were listening to it.
00:07:38.440 I sat in my truck at a job site that I was supposed to start working at 8
00:07:43.260 and I did not get out of the truck until 11, praying the show would end.
00:07:48.500 They kept coming back and doing more and Gilbert's on and Jackie and Fred
00:07:55.700 And I'm dying laughing.
00:07:57.880 I am not leaving that truck. 0.55
00:08:00.480 And then to see that interview, that kiss ass propaganda interview with Joe Biden, that was the last straw.
00:08:10.080 And I think I'm not alone here.
00:08:12.140 That really turned off hardcore Stern fans from years ago.
00:08:18.040 Because how big Stern was back in the 90s especially,
00:08:23.320 that created such a bond and such a loyalty in the audience
00:08:28.280 that it took a long time for people to throw that out.
00:08:33.360 I know a lot of people that said, yeah, I know it's not different,
00:08:35.740 but he's growing, he's maturing, he's changing as a radio guy.
00:08:41.460 You can't do the shock jock thing and get older.
00:08:43.580 But if you change into what he changed into, I don't care how hardcore a fan you are,
00:08:50.940 you're just not going to enjoy what he's doing.
00:08:53.200 And you're going to look at him and go, who is this guy?
00:08:57.260 This isn't that guy.
00:09:01.120 So I think we're going through a time in America that that type of entertainer is looked down upon.
00:09:10.780 you know we we saw what the democrats did we saw what happened under the biden administration
00:09:17.480 and uh for howard this you know free speech advocate for so many years first amendment
00:09:25.220 crucified by the fcc remember that he put out a whole thing the fcc was censoring him and
00:09:31.980 and then he actually said i don't care about your free speech to people that were
00:09:38.300 talking about perhaps the COVID vaccine wasn't as good as they say it was,
00:09:45.620 and some of the oppressive laws that were being put in place during COVID,
00:09:53.280 people were speaking out about that.
00:09:55.000 And Howard said, I don't care about your free speech.
00:09:58.460 And that just crushed people.
00:10:01.820 This is the free speech guy.
00:10:04.500 Let me say what I want to say on the air.
00:10:07.140 F the FCC, all that.
00:10:10.640 So Trump had something to say about Colbert and then talked about Stern
00:10:16.360 because he had done his show a few times.
00:10:18.240 Let's listen to Trump talking about these guys.
00:10:23.760 I've got an entertainment-based question for you.
00:10:26.280 A few weeks ago, Stephen Colbert announced that he was leaving his show.
00:10:30.120 Howard Stern announced that he and Sirius XM radio are parting ways.
00:10:36.020 Do you think the hate Trump business model that's been in the entertainment business is going out of business because it's not popular with the American people?
00:10:45.220 Well, it hasn't worked, and it hasn't worked really for a long time.
00:10:48.360 And I would say pretty much from the beginning, Colbert has no talent.
00:10:51.960 I mean, I could take anybody here.
00:10:53.860 I could go outside on the beautiful streets and pick up a couple of people that do just as well or better.
00:10:59.260 They get higher ratings than he did.
00:11:00.720 He's got no talent.
00:11:02.120 Fallon has no talent.
00:11:03.440 Kimmel has no talent.
00:11:04.700 they're next they're going to be going i hear they're going to be going i don't know but i
00:11:08.300 would imagine because they get where you know colbert has better ratings than kimmel or fallon
00:11:13.180 you know that uh howard stern is the name i haven't heard i used to do a show we used to have fun
00:11:18.260 but i haven't heard that name in a long time what happened he got terminated yeah they're
00:11:22.360 in a separate way because i think what they're offering salary wise is real low from what he's
00:11:26.960 getting you know when he went down when he won you know when he went down no before when he
00:11:32.860 endorsed hillary clinton he lost his audience people said give me a break he went down when
00:11:38.620 he endorsed hillary clinton a safer ontario means more police and prosecutors making sure my car
00:11:44.840 doesn't get stolen it means building new jails to keep criminals behind bars and it means there's
00:11:50.620 no need to worry when i play at the park we're making every corner of ontario safer to make
