Jimmy Failla
you were a cab driver back in the day and your services were in high demand I'm sure. So in the 90s were I mean did you have two pagers did you have three were you a motor roller did you have that little clip chain to hook it into your belt would give me some pager talk here Jimmy. No old school communication in the 90s is they didn't they didn't use digital devices they just slapped you in the head. 39th street you know what I mean which explains why I'm paying to get beat up on Craig's list to this day I have a TV show but I keep it on Craig's list now that Diddy went away I can't party where we used to I can freak off. Were you in one of the freak offs Jimmy yeah Jimmy tell us I was not but I met I'm not kidding I met Diddy Diddy had a restaurant not far from Fox it was called Justin's and he used to walk around with a bottle of champagne in his hand and like like a major D at a restaurant which is a little weird you know what I'm saying if the guy who's the proprietor is drinking straight out of the bottle it makes you wonder if the Board of Health has some reservations as bare-handing spaghetti has everything tonight good. You mentioned New York City I got to get your thoughts on this because we were just talking about this in our cut sheet last segment you know Trump was in New York yesterday he was on a second wait a second guys wait a second what didn't we didn't we didn't we promise Oh yeah I think people are just going to have to hang through we got some business to handle Oh okay I know yeah I'm just making sure for the peak because I thought there was a big announcement when Jimmy fail it calls in you put the big announcement on hold okay you stick that on the back burner like the media puts a Trump assassination attempt you just stick that on the back burner and get back to joy from change yeah but we were just talking to me about how Trump being in New York he does the gut felled show he's at Fox he's a long island he's going up at a Bitcoin bars and I said to dawn there's something about New York that I think brings out the best of him what have you ever seen it as somebody in New York being around Trump where he's there's just the different almost demeanor and personality to him compared to everywhere else that he travels I mean the big thing is it's home I mean it's where he's from the Donald Trump that became a part of the fabric of mainstream society in the 80s and 90s the guy that was in home alone the guy that was hosting Saturday Night Live the guy that hosted the apprentices you guys mentioned he did all of that in New York so that's really what it is it's a home game and he was revered in New York until he went into politics so it was surreal yesterday to see him taking kind of a New York victory lap because he has a lot more public support now than he did four years ago and even eight years ago and last night's gut felled I mean the idea that you get to see a hilarious person sit down with Greg Gutfeld I mean that was something only only 20 people when you're there right that's right Jimmy yeah no listen I don't begrudge the comedy dwarf because I wouldn't have a TV show if he wasn't so successful you know like maybe we talk a lot of smack about each other yeah yeah Jimmy you close I'm like sorry we can't all afford to shop the Peter Dinklage collection wow here I thought Jesse Waters against Gutfeld was set for WrestleMania now we're gonna have to make it a triple threat installed Jimmy fella to the match as well whoa they're my buddies but don't know those twos are those two are club fighters okay like you remember Rocky spider Rico yeah in the annals of comedy they're both spider Rico I mean to be clear I'm not rocky I'm Paulie if I've seen my perfect thing I'm not claiming rocky status I'm only one last one for you you mentioned you know Trump with the Hollywood elites and the celebrities I mean I'd be robust if I didn't bring up Howard Stern this is a guy who just recently I think it was on Monday on a show that nobody listens to anymore on us on a platform that nobody has comes out and says I don't really hate Trump but I hate Trump voters I don't respect you I don't like you your thoughts on that because and look I get he probably doesn't care at this point in his career but that is such a 180 from the guy of 30 years ago oh 100 percent but you got to think of what Trump did to Stern's ego Howard if you remember used to call himself the king of all media and now he's just so whiny he's like the Prince Harry of all media for all intents and purposes and he lost that constituency he became the thing he hated I mean his whole rise to fame was about railing against the elites but more importantly railing against censorship so this idea that he now hates people because they support Trump for having a potty mouth because for all intents and purposes that's Trump's biggest offense he hates seeing Trump become a better version of what he was and remember this Howard ran for governor so Trump has like literally trumped you know his media omnipotence in every sense of the word and it does it burns his old droopy nuts I like that Jimmy not Jimmy fail but Jimmy in the back we're gonna need that on my job when that gets us to the major station announcement Greg Stocker can we get a drum roll in here a drum roll hang on this you have a drum roll over there listen to this production value Jimmy this is top-notch imaging as they say in the industry coming up on the debut it'll be Monday October 7th at 7 p.m. and Monday through Friday from 7 to 10 p.m. you will now hear the man joining us on the show Jimmy what Jimmy fail and join in the team here what this is huge deal this is you guys have no idea like and I really mean this it's such a surreal bookend to my first meeting with Stocker at Fox where Tamara our affiliate rep is like you gotta meet this guy and I looked at him and I thought it was Kurt Cobain's chubby brother Bert Cobain and then she's like not only works in radio and I go and listen to WPHT if I'm driving a fare to like satchers here Philly in my cab and this is the bookend to the time that Kurt Cobain engaged with Bernie and Fox news he did surreal he did give me whiskey I can be bribed and bought with whiskey that's that that is the how do you think I got this yeah that's the lesson here I mean unreal and what an incredible honestly I do mean this what an incredible honor to join this lineup because like the thing you guys do that matters to me is you guys know your listeners you hang out with him you meet him you do events like that to me is amazing that's why I got into radio is like you want to be a part of the community so even though I do a national show like I'm always on tour doing live events I want to be part of the community which is a fancy way of me saying I got to get out of New York a lot because I owe a lot of people money but the point is I'll be there in person wow this is awesome but Jimmy this is great so now we have a line of you have Kaling company into the dawn show Don G. Urdano rich the only right into Jimmy fail a weeknight starting at 7 p.m. very happy for your brother I'm thrilled I'm thrilled for the American people the folks who listen to Ph. K. will now go to bed every night thinking they do could have a nationally syndicated talk show this is amazing because Jimmy you remember back in the day you filling in for Zioli right here on morning drive with me and Dawn you remember that like you've been a part of this this Ph.D. family for many many years many many years it matters well I'm like the Forster pet you decided to keep you know and I appreciate that because Stalker he'd let me guest host Zioli as the Forster dog but then he'd also be here's my cousin Michael Vick you should play with him too. Amazing I love this. Can you just ship me the Springfield that we'll call it? Yeah I mean this is this is a we're this is the new the new generation of talk radio 1210 WPHD I'm really happy that you are you are you are a part of our lineup you should have been many many many moons ago but uh getting it done now is is is is a big a compliment for me this is our time is a moment in talk radio right now and this really matters you know people want to have fun that's the bigger thing like you know we're supposed to take the issue seriously and we all do but we don't take ourselves seriously and that makes talk but it's supposed to be which is a great companion you know to the listener's life you know whether they're at work or they're on the way to work I mean if you're listening to my show you're probably cooking in a meth lab you're in a better mood because vibe is right and that's what I say on my show every day I'm like well the world's on fire we're just roasting marsh mellows but that's what we're doing at the end of the day having a conversation and a fun way allows people to engage serious substance but actually come away from it feeling good and wanting to close line somebody you know they're like group therapy yes by the way can I just say that that uh rich the only into into Jimmy Fela it is like I mean oh my look there you go all right it looks huge I mean what are you gonna do from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. you're just gonna stream it or listen to it or watch it on youtube what are you gonna do you're gonna do whip it so Jimmy so you have people that have seen you on tv and perhaps have heard your show but I'm sure there are some people out there that maybe have never consumed your radio show compared to what they see visually on television I know you kind of talked about you know having fun and not wanting to walk out of there at the end of the show clotheslining somebody what can people expect for three hours a night what's the vibe the flow is it similar to TV or do you take a little bit of a different approach well I always say okay I say like Fox across America I call it an audio safe space for cool people and what that means is you don't have to identify a particular way politically you've just got to be cool when it comes to expressing your views and right or maybe even countering some of mine and it's essentially you know three hours of that I'm gonna give you takes but I don't want to be in charge of democracy I'm not telling you how to vote I mean I went to community college and majored in Nintendo so if I'm in charge of democracy we've already failed so what it really is is like this non-threatening port in the media storm where yeah I have takes I'm you know unapologetically conservative I work at Fox News but the best way to describe it is I'm not Fox News I'm like Samantha Fox News yeah of course we all had those posters Jimmy we all had those posters so I'll just be sticking I want to have some fun with the British accent most nights and usually are towards the weekend I'll sing naughty girls need love to girls don't have it easy in this day and you know I'm glad you bring that up and you make that analogy and you bring that up because this is a story I want to talk about coming up in the next hour but I want to get your take on this so Melania Trump is now defending her nude modeling career as the left is attacking her don't you find audience art it's more than art it's it's just stunning visuals but I'll put my talk back in my head for a moment isn't it funny Jimmy how the left will come out and talk about body positivity and nope don't fat shame people and I've got lizzo on stage basically naked flopping around like a jellyfish out of water but Melania Trump does it and it's disgusting it's deplorable and it's it speaks poorly about women if you could just give me your take on that hypocrisy I'd love to hear it well it's fun because for as much as we talk about the double standard when it comes to Trump nothing illustrates how massive it is then their reaction to Melania and the reason I say that is because if you think of Melania Trump's background okay she is a self-made millionaire supermodel who immigrated to this country and speaks five languages like if she was married to a democrat they'd be naming federal office bill straight up I mean she is everything that they they claim to stand for which is migrants making their way being multicultural and again they were champions of nudity and and the rise of women's empowerment and all of that stuff do you remember when the democrats were doing that like it was called anti slut shaming it was absolutely lately and I sleep around and all these other girls were like and we sleep around we're like wonderful this is great but now they're going the other way and it's because of her and you know I'm not denigrating other first ladies because Joe Biden's bilingual she speaks English and Joe Melania wouldn't be an icon if she was a liberal she would be an icon she would be the biggest deal in the world speaking of icons I can't help but notice maybe you've borrowed some of former president Trump's bronzer very tan and what's up with that huge I looked this is just the light because I've been my my Fox put a home studio at my house and it's lit well I'm not that bronzer now I actually if that's if that's lighting then I owe somebody I'm actually wearing a Fox across America t-shirt I see that look at that Fox across America Jimmy said I like that well this matters because when you know when they start making like big merchandise lines for your show yeah wow that's cool but you realize you could never wear it out of the house without being the biggest a-hole well walk around in the shirt is my name basically I have merged out pajamas I have t-shirts with my name this is close as we come we have a rule here we have a rule here with stocker where if we're gonna wear any of our killing company apparel we have to confirm with each other than I before as we're laying our clothes out for work stock don't text me say hey buddy you're not wearing your hoodie tomorrow my chance are you like no that's a Friday look and two two gals just uh just you know coordinate making sure we don't wear each other's dresses who wore a better um I would just expect flannel out of bird coben I love it actually Jimmy I thought the glow was just yeah you sweating out all the alcohol from that I was gonna say are you right now if you knew just so you know because of me having my own Saturday night TV show yeah so I am Monday through Saturday borderline Mormon okay I don't drink I don't eat anything Friday I do anything fun Monday where the other were the minute hey girl the minute the show goes off the air Saturday night it becomes a 24 hour Amish rum spring you can drink it like I'm gonna get myself killed I'm not joking on a Sunday as I have a 24 hour cry for help because as you know okay I was not born into like a TV you know look okay I was joke that like Pete Hegzef looks like a TV star I look like I installed your TV for me to make TV work I gotta be you know I gotta hold it together for five days and then Saturday night I'm a bad bad boy like goodness last night we had last week we had Johnny Damon on and we hung out till 3 30 in the morning I former Yankee Johnny Damon I saw the pictures with Zioli with Johnny Damon wearing the world series ring the Yankees World Series ring is that true yeah well yeah it's the only is height he could actually wear it as a necklace it would look like a spinner on Gutfeld I'll forget about it he is he is people always you know give him a hard time about you know the height thing with Greg yeah he he is legitimately I don't he's probably like five five but it's like someone once told me this I met an old comic who was like 90 right and she was like you know you're old when you're fake age is old she was trying to hate and she's like I was telling guys I'm 80 but I'm 90 she's like you know dawned on me I'm really old if even my fake age is old well that's Gutfeld like he walks around telling people he's five five you're short if your fake height isn't tall you know Jimmy great stuff do you crack me up congratulations Monday October 7th 7 to 10 p.m. so immediately after the Zioli show Monday through Friday keep it locked here on 12 10 at 7 o'clock and Jimmy will have you for the next
