John Catsimatidis and Curtis Sliwa cover everything from supermarket wars and New York politics to Italian heritage, global travel, and free speech. John recalls his battles with A&P over his “Six O’Clock Coffee” and shares stories about carrying Trump-branded products in his stores, while Curtis dives into his whirlwind tour of the five boroughs and his mission to bring a Christopher Columbus statue to Staten Island. The conversation moves from Greek festivals and the Patriarch’s blessing to the history of Columbus Day, prejudice against Italian Americans, and President Trump’s role in restoring the holiday. They also weigh in on Jimmy Kimmel’s controversial return, the role of free speech in media, and the international landscape from London tabloids to Italian politics.
