Well we always appreciate. And you have always been extremely generous. Then in the past only ask you this between you and me is this thing economy getting better here.
Well you know the stock market seems to get better but nobody sees any other result the market goes up and nobody understands why. But let's hope it keeps going that way and eventually may be that drags everything else would it. So do you see a lot to listen. I do feel optimistic I -- certainly a year and a half ago the banks looked like Beirut and also every one of open. The government very wisely pumped money into the banks which they added do you would -- runs in the banks and I do feel optimistic I think things will be getting better.
I have to ask you shop question would you TV show the apprentice and you you do the celebrity apprentice. When you put all nervous with some of the people would -- had involved I mean -- cameras following Dennis Rodman every single day can be a little dangerous.
Well it was a great guy and a great character and he's got some difficult problems ahead of him but he's gonna say he's gonna resolve -- because prompted the agreements well but Dennis was really great certainly great tradition out the ratings are phenomenal. And day you know Joan Rivers while she was terrific but that is really get me as a sports guy is a piece of work they'll tell you he's.
Well I gotta tell if I play a lot of poker we're beginning -- she's in the wee wee girl anyway out I was a tad disappointed. That she lost and oh tad disappointed in -- comments towards her vote mafia money which I thought was entertaining because since she later. Career on the Vegas strip who -- a father quite amusing which -- for those comments out.
Like that it was amazing -- anything is really smart really tough and you know achieve -- beat sixteen people. And she really get a good job but it was really very close decision between marriage and any anyways really evading Joe but ultimately took -- but. You know you couldn't ask any more from --
Is it tough doing most of the -- the reality tech TV shows and that they only. With the exception American Idol -- how many of them have -- like I noticed survivors still layer but. Are they dealing with the same type of ratings they were dealing with even five years ago.
Well they don't get quite the ratings that they were getting but it still does probably better than anything -- you know state they do very well and the apprentice as you know has gotten great ratings and it was sort of -- because we went to the celebrity format. And did really. We want to celebrity and it became further -- went through the roof so. They do have it on certain of the shares many of them don't but certainly celebrity apprentice has been a ratings bonanza this.
I as I said I know you've been a picture of the Jimmy Fund over the years in new give always supported bill this cause and a regular basis. We just happen to have here in the studio I don't know how what happened with your conscience.
