"Hello?"
"Yeah, we're listening."
"Well, if you're listening, let me talk!"

"I appreciate, Bill, that you called me a great investor, I thank you for that. Unfortunately I can't say the same for you."

One year ago, two billionaires bickered on CNBC for nearly 45 minutes. Some of the language was even too profane for live television. Watch the highlights below.

Grown men should never utter the word “bullied”

[jamesshkrelivanhoogstraten]

"I wouldn't be friends with you if you were the last man on earth!"

[nikolatesla]

Ahahaha Carl Icahn is right out of Curb Your Enthusiasm

"As far as I'm concerned, the guy is a major loser."

[jamesshkrelivanhoogstraten]

"He's not even gonna have the resources to sue me." Icahn is a legend

Icahn recently moved to San Francisco's tent city, finally found folks who would respect him.

Carl definitely woke up on the wrong side of the bed that day. All it is are they are on opposite sides of a trade, and both have a ton of money, so they both want to be right. Probably one of the most entertaining things on CNBC. They should have more debates on CNBC re: long / short vs 10 segments per day of people sitting around a desk nodding their heads and agreeing with everyone.

Here for the Carl Icahn “hello, hello?” and the schmuck insurance.

😆

[boston-kugi]

You cut out way too much of the arguments every time They got good you edited it

[jorgetasse]

The most watched CNBC live television session ever. Unfortunately! They're both great icons

Do you guys not realize how disgusting Icahn really is? Ackman spent a billion dollars trying to bring down Herbalife's MLM scheme and to deliver justice for the customers who lost family and money to Herbalife's predatory marketing tactics.
Things would've worked out well if it wasn't for Icahn standing at the opposite position of Ackman and profiting a billion dollars off this deal.

SEASON 2 maybe Ackman Vs Business Insider live on CNBC

[tomspeed]

hhm i saw ichan on the show again many times with scott again

[hankigoe]

what in the sam hill is "schmuck insurance"?

[ckramos]

The reality is, they are likely both jerks, PSTH is an absolute train wreck and that's putting I nicely.

[izmirstinger]

Making billions of schmucks and then getting schmuck insurance.
