Well, if you taped the conversations without your wife's knowledge, you violated federal (and probably state) wiretapping laws, which means the conversation would probably be inadmissible and you could face criminal charges! Big no no.

Don't these laws vary widely by state?

In New York, you only need the knowledge/consent of one party to record a phone call.

Even if you're right, it's still a violation of federal wiretapping laws (Linda Tripp says hello), so it is manifestly unwise to do this.
