**SPEAKER_2** (0:16)
It's right here.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:20)
I think I've ever said this before.

**Patrick Bet-David** (0:26)
Great to be with you. Last night, we hosted the first Florida gubernatorial debate. We had a great time. We got a lot of comments afterwards of people wanting to do others, and it's exciting because it was many heated moments, some controversial moments. Maybe we'll address some of them. Aside from that, Newsom had a rough last 24 hours with FBI infiltrating Gavin Newsom's inner circle by convincing governor's ally to wear a wire.
Lawyer, this is a New York Post story that just dropped, and they've been quiet about it. They've not been commenting about it. So we'll address that. Obviously, one of the bigger stories, folks. I hope you're being responsible today while you're watching your podcast. For some of you guys in California, it's six-something in the morning. You're watching this 4th of July weekend, 250-year anniversary tomorrow. You better not have your AC below 78 Telling you, you better do the responsible thing, folks.
Do what Mamdani said. Turn your heater to 78
Can you imagine? Everybody you sleep with us, I don't know what temperature you sleep with, Adam. Are you like a 68?

**Adam Sosnick** (1:26)
Seventy-two, buddy.

**Patrick Bet-David** (1:28)
What are you? What temperature do you go to sleep with?

**Tom Ellsworth** (1:30)
Well, we're very patriotic. Kim likes it cold at night. She puts it at 17, and I am in the kitchen trying to keep it warm. I have it at 76 So we feel very patriotic.

**Patrick Bet-David** (1:38)
That was supposed to be funny. But what's yours? I didn't get it.

**Vinnie** (1:41)
I live in a one.

**Patrick Bet-David** (1:41)
I need a simple answer. What's your number?

**Vinnie** (1:44)
74

**Patrick Bet-David** (1:45)
Okay, 74 These are reasonable people, but Mamdani wants it to be at 78 He wants you to lose weight. He wants you to be sweating bullets. And while D.Rabbi at CNN was trying to defend Mamdani when asked about lowering the temperature, it's like, hey, why don't we lower the studio at CNN to 78? No, that's, are you kidding me? Can you imagine how great it is when hypocrisy comes out? So we'll address that. And we have next one, which is Public Trust and Polls. Tom was talking about this pre-podcast.
What's going on with that, with Jill Biden's book is all of a sudden off lists. This was the first lady. You came out with your book. How many copies did you sell? Did people buy them? Did people buy them in bulk just to help out with? Nobody knows. And then even Spotify deletes a couple of the charts. We'll get into that. This is why the cal-she model is working so well.
Even yesterday, while we were doing the debate, everyone said, well, let me tell you, buy Byron Donalds this and that. That's great. You're saying this. Why are people putting nearly $9 million of money on cal-she and Byron Donalds had 95% of it? I think after yesterday's debate, the plus minus was what? Fishback went from 2.8 to 4 percent. Collins and Paul Renner came up a little bit. It was a very interesting thing that happened, but people are paying attention to cal-she. People are paying attention to what's going on there. They're saying if a person is willing to risk their money like that, there's got to be something behind it.
Then, aside from that, these two beautiful Russian couple did something I would never do. I love my wife. I would never climb up, what was it, the Empire State Building, all the way to the top and then propose. I'm proposing on ground. That's what we're doing right here at a restaurant or whatever. These two Russian good-looking attractive couple go all the way to the top, put a message, which by the way, one of the funniest things I saw is some people posted saying, that's actually not what they put up. They put up something else. I'll share it with Connor and, yeah, they put up this whatever. Yeah, there's a lot of funny banners that people put up and then he proposes to her. They come downstairs, you know, eventually they get arrested, they get multiple felonies, but they're released. But no, they were everywhere. Every channel, everything you watch, they were climbing. Who is this good-looking attractive Russian couple? All the money in the world. You couldn't find me doing that. Literally all the money in the world. We're going to give you all the money in the world. Would you do it?

**Vinnie** (4:06)
100 million dollars cash right in front of you.

**Patrick Bet-David** (4:08)
100 billion, I don't do it. I'm telling you right now, I have zero desire to do something like this. They're hanging off. No rope, no nothing.
