The 4 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 2: Sunday Hang with Playing Fuck podcast. It starts now. I 5 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 2: flew out to California yesterday after our show. There is 6 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,920 Speaker 2: a major vibe shift that has taken place. Forty percent 7 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 2: of Californians roughly are going to vote Trump, So there 8 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 2: are tons of Trump voters listening to us right now 9 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 2: in California. You and I have talked about how we 10 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 2: are fans of the state of California, beautiful place. I 11 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 2: hate to see what Democrats have done to cities like 12 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 2: La San Francisco, places that are just fabulous and should 13 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 2: be incredible to live. But I will say that there 14 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 2: are a lot of Trump supporters coming out of the woods. 15 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 2: On my airplane flight last night. When I went to 16 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 2: get something to eat last night at the hotel, people 17 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: coming up and just saying, Hey, Trump won, Thank you 18 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: for what you and Buck do. Thank you for what 19 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 2: you do at out Kick on a level that I've 20 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: never seen before. Buck and I've been traveling out to 21 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 2: La for work a lot because Fox Sports is based 22 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: out here for now better part of eleven years. I 23 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: think I know the LA area pretty well. I've spent 24 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: more time here than anywhere other than Nashville, and it 25 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 2: is it is palpable, the feeling that things have changed 26 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 2: in a major way. Even in a place like LA 27 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 2: that has a left leaning bent to it, people are 28 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: feeling the change and the result is real and it's fabulous. 29 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: And I bet you're in Miami, which now is a 30 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 2: deep red city, which is kind of crazy to say, 31 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 2: but I bet Buck, the next time you're in New 32 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 2: York City, you're going to pick up on a different vibe, 33 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: even in New York City than maybe what you have seen. 34 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 2: Certainly after twenty sixteen and in the past Sunday hang 35 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 2: with Clay and Buck, A lot of the data is 36 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 2: out and the biggest move that occurred from twenty twenty 37 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: to twenty twenty four in terms of groups voting is 38 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: young men, White, Black, Asian and Hispanic under the age 39 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 2: of thirty overwhelmingly moved to vote and support Donald Trump. 40 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: Many of you out there listening to us right now 41 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 2: may have kids, may have grandkids that were a part 42 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 2: of this group voting for the very first time. Some 43 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: of you are listening to us right now, and you 44 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 2: voted in an election for the very first time, and 45 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: you voted for Trump and Buck. I wrote last night 46 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 2: when I was flying to LA a column that is 47 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 2: up at OutKick right now. I shared it from my Twitter. 48 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 2: We'll link it up at Clayanbuck dot com. But I've 49 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: been thinking a lot about as these Trump celebrations have happened. 50 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 2: You saw John Jones doing the Trump dance last night, 51 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 2: Christian Pulistic, the soccer player, did it. Lots of different 52 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 2: NFL players, Detroit Lyons, San Francisco forty nine Ers, Tennessee Titans, 53 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 2: basically the Las Vegas Raiders all over the country. Young 54 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 2: men athletes in particular, are saying, we're Trump guys and 55 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: we're not apologizing for it. How did this happen? How 56 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: did suddenly it become so incredibly cool for young men 57 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: to be Trump supporters? Now? I think Trump ran a 58 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 2: great campaign. He was intelligent in reaching out to these 59 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 2: young guys by doing Joe Rogan, by doing THEO Vaughn, 60 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: by doing OutKick. Honestly, Aiden Ross, I think is the 61 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 2: guy's name. Lots of people who are younger than I am, 62 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 2: and then you are buck and we're pretty young to 63 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: be having the jobs that we have are being really 64 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: impactful when it comes to young men and how they voted. 65 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: And I've got a thesis for you, and it's been 66 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 2: building for some time, and I'm curious if you buy it. 67 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: Imagine that you were fifteen or sixteen years old when 68 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: COVID happened. I think younger men this is true too, 69 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: But those kids, like my kids now they're fourteen and sixteen, 70 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: they live through COVID. But just follow me here and 71 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 2: see if you buy it. This is my thesis. If 72 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 2: you were told, hey, you can't go to school anymore, 73 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 2: you can't play sports, you can't go to prom, you 74 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: can't go on to the mall, you can't hang out 75 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: with your buddies. You got to stay at home. You 76 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: can't go see grandpa or grandma if they're sick in 77 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 2: the hospital because you might kill them. You can't go 78 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: to their funeral. You gotta wear a mask outdoors to 79 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 2: play football whenever you're allowed to play, to play soccer, 80 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: you got to wear a mask to play basketball because 81 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 2: you might die from this virus which actually has no 82 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 2: statistical chance of killing you. If all of the adults 83 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 2: in your life, and the authority figures told you that, 84 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 2: and you found out that it wasn't true. I think 85 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: you'd be angry. And if simultaneously you were being told 86 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 2: that men were the root of all evil, that masculinity 87 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 2: was toxic, you would start to look around, and you 88 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 2: might have a profound BS detector. And also you might 89 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: start to look and find Clay and Buck on social 90 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: media or OutKick, or you might find Jordan Peterson. You 91 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 2: might find Ben Shapiro, you might find Joe Rogan. You 92 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: might find a lot of male voices out there telling 93 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 2: you that you weren't actually responsible for anything other than 94 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: what you did. And you might have started to look 95 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 2: at Donald Trump, who, if you're a young man, you 96 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 2: had been told was racist and sexist and totally unacceptable. 97 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 2: And then on July thirteenth, you saw Trump nearly get shot, 98 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 2: and you saw him rise up and say fight, fight, fight, 99 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 2: and what I think is the most alpha male moment 100 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 2: in the history of the United States presidency. And you 101 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: might have started looking around saying, wait a minute, Trump 102 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 2: is actually what a male figure that I would aspire 103 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: to be part of. And let me give you two 104 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: more little clips here, Buck, because I'm raising boys right now. 105 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: About four years ago or so, I was with my 106 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: then ten year old in Target and we walked in 107 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 2: I think we were going to buy football cards, and 108 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: there were girl power shirts everywhere. And my ten year 109 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 2: old turned to me and he said, Dad, how come 110 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 2: there's never boy power shirts anywhere? He said, they would never. 111 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: Target would never sell a shirt that said boy power. 112 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: Why can girls all walk around saying yay girl power? 113 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 2: And we're not allowed to be proud to be men? Boys? 114 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: Is what he said. I never would have thought about it. 115 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 2: Another one of my kids for Ends, was over and 116 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: I wrote about this because it in retrospect makes a 117 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: lot of sense. Buck. He said, I was in class 118 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 2: the other day and one of our teachers was doing 119 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 2: a whole thing on how toxic masculinity is and how 120 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,239 Speaker 2: white men have caused all these problems, and he said, 121 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 2: I'm just over it. He said, I'm twelve. I think 122 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 2: it was a sixth grader at the time. He's like, 123 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: my mom doesn't even let me pick what I get 124 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: to eat for dinner. How can I be the cause 125 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 2: of everything that's gone wrong in America? I'm just a 126 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 2: twelve year old kid. I think these boys have seen 127 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: through the BS. And this is one reason Buck, I'm 128 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,559 Speaker 2: so optimistic going forward. I think that they are going 129 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: to be absolutely the foundation of the Republican Party going forward, White, Black, 130 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 2: Asian and Hispanic because they're over the BS. And I 131 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: think that's why they moved so much to Trump in 132 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. A lot of these guys are just 133 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 2: voting for the first time. Do you buy it. They're 134 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: angry about COVID, They're angry about what they've been told 135 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 2: about masculinity. They think it's BS. 136 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: Look, if you're a guy, let's just say you know, 137 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: twelve to twenty five right now, right so you're you know, 138 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: you're aware of what's in the new well. I mean, 139 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: obviously twelve year old's very very different perspective from twenty. 140 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 2: Five year olds. 141 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: But you know, a young man in the world today 142 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: in America, who do you look up to on the 143 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: Democrat side? You know, I'll tell you one thing that 144 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: has changed dramatically in our in our culture. I don't 145 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: think people look up to actors at all anymore. 146 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think that that. 147 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: I think because of social media and because of the 148 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: change also in the power dynamic in Hollywood where now 149 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: you know who really runs the entertainment industry, Netflix, Amazon, Apple, 150 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: That's who runs the entertainment industry. It's not even the 151 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: big movie studios anymore. So the era of I want 152 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: to be George Clooney or I want to be Brad 153 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 1: Pitt when I grow up, I think those guys are 154 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: badasses and they're so cool, not really a thing anymore. 155 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 1: That's changed dramatically. I think a lot of sports heroes 156 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: or you know, elevating people in the sports realm, it's changed. 157 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: Right. 158 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that there aren't people that look up to 159 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: NBA players, NFL players, UFC fighters, whomever. But because of 160 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: social media, we have seen that some of these people 161 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: are jerks, like Colin Kaepernick is a fraud and a jerk. Yeah, 162 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: And you know, I think there are plenty of people 163 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: who might have, you know, liked him for the athlete 164 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: he was, et cetera. 165 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: But when he. 166 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: Showed what he really felt about America, a lot of 167 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: people reacted very negatively to it. And when the NBA 168 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: was you know, the NBA has this habit of you know, 169 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: standing against the police and sometimes with criminals. You know, 170 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: we've seen enough of this now where If you're a 171 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 1: young man looking for role models, I don't mean role 172 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: models is I want to be like this person, but 173 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: I want to aspire to their philosophy. I like the 174 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: way they view the world and what they're trying to achieve. 175 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 1: I do not think the left has anyone for you. 176 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: I think that's where we are. I do not think 177 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: that anybody who is a pronoun sharing male feminist who 178 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: thinks that transgender men should play in women's sports and 179 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: wants to chant all the time about girl power and 180 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: wants to talk about the dangers of white supremacy, and 181 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: thinks Christopher Columbus should be replaced with you know, Native 182 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: Indigenous People's Day or whatever. I don't think an average thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, 183 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: all the way up to twenty five year old or 184 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 1: whatever guy with normal levels of testosterone, which, by the way, 185 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: does affect your brain and your outlook on life and 186 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: what you want to do. I don't think they see 187 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: the left and they see anybody that they want to 188 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: be like or that they look up to. Right now, 189 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: who's really prominent. We don't look up to music acts 190 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: the same way. I mean, maybe some people do, but 191 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 1: you know, rock stars. A lot of the old rock 192 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: stars now also look a little kind of like weird 193 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: and sad. They've gotten really old. They're not giving it up. 194 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw Madonna recently, not that 195 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: I was ever a huge Matona, and but you know, 196 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: she needs an intervention. I'm just saying, I think that 197 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: the heroes in this country, it's changed a lot. And 198 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: I think that some of the people that are believing 199 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: in MAGA to the central point you're making, are young 200 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: men who view this as a philosophy of America and 201 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: their role in it. That makes them proud, That makes 202 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: them feel like there's something that they should fight for 203 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: and that they have a role, that they have a purpose. 204 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: You do not have purpose if you're just some cognive 205 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: machine that walks around with your shoulders slumped together, being 206 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: like I'm a male feminist, you know you do not 207 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: have purpose as a man in that world. 208 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. And I think Buck, the Butler Pennsylvania assassination attempt, 209 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 2: if you had said, oh, Trump's a fraud, Trump's a coward, 210 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 2: that argument went up in smoke. I don't know Buck, 211 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 2: how I would respond if I were speaking on a 212 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 2: stage and I came within a quarter inch of my 213 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 2: head being blown off. I don't know that I would 214 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: have been as brave as Trump and stood up in 215 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 2: immediately screamed fight, fight, fight. I don't think anybody knows 216 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 2: how they would respond in that moment. I think the 217 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: argument that Trump was sort of a deletant and he 218 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: didn't believe what he was saying it went away forever. 219 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: And I think what it goes to is young men 220 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: are desperately craving authenticity. They don't expect that they're going 221 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: to agree with you on everything, but we live. I 222 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 2: think everybody understands this in a profoundly and authentic age. 223 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: Instagram is BS. I don't even know how to work 224 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 2: a filter, but I've seen enough girls on Instagram who 225 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 2: look like they're twenty four's on the scale of one 226 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 2: to ten. And you see him in person, you're like, ah, 227 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 2: you know, you're really good at working the mechanics on that. 228 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 2: And I think they know that it's BS, and I think, yeah, 229 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 2: I see my son about a guy, Andrew Tait. I said, 230 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: why do you like Andrew Tate? You know, because there's 231 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 2: criticisms about Andrew Tate. He said, well, what I take 232 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 2: from a dad is quit whining and do more push ups. 233 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 2: And I'm like, if you're fourteen, that's not bad advice. 234 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 2: Do quit winding and do more push ups is actually 235 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 2: a constructive thing that makes you a better version of yourself, right, 236 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 2: which is really what it's about. 237 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: I also think we're at a phase of Trump and 238 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: the Trump phenomenon where now people if you look at 239 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: some of the great movers of history, I mean people 240 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: that were moving the levers of history in important and 241 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: powerful ways and over in a net positive way. 242 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 3: Right. 243 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: Not Stalin, He moved a lot of levers, but. 244 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 2: It wasn't good. 245 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, But people that move levers in a positive way. 246 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: You know, you can look at them. And I'm a 247 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: big fan of reading biographies. Right, you can look at 248 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: them and through the totality of what they represented and 249 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: what they accomplished, and not feel the need to have 250 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: to say that everything about them is perfect or awesome. 251 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 4: Right. 252 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: And I think that a lot of people who have 253 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: supported Trump from the beginning, the left has always played there, 254 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: the Democrats have always played this game of life. But 255 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: what about we know about the butt? What about you 256 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: know we know about your objections, We know that He's 257 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 1: not perfect. Nobody's perfect. We know that he has some shortcomings. 258 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: But when you see what he has done, not just 259 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: with this re election win, but I did you know 260 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: how he reacted to the attempted assassination. I'm sorry, but 261 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: that's an image that is now seared into all of 262 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: our brains. I think we all recognize that that was 263 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: a moment in history that we'll all remember, and that 264 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: could have been very different, very tragic. When you see 265 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: that he stood up against multiple indictments honestly like it 266 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: was no big deal. Yeah, most people get one felony indictment, 267 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: and you know they're they're having to put them on 268 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: like high high doses of you know, paxel or zoloft 269 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: or something just to get them to show up to 270 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: court because they're so terrified about what's going to happen 271 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: to them, and or lithium or something. And Trump just 272 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: sort of rolled over all this. There is something about 273 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: this that appeals to the masculine in all of us. 274 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: I also one idea that I'd like for you guys 275 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 2: to think about as we go to break how do 276 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 2: we define people? Because but what about is so important? 277 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 2: What you just said, Buck, I think we're moving towards 278 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: an era where we look towards the ceiling as opposed 279 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: to the floor. What do I mean by that? Much 280 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 2: of the deconstructive woke era is about dragging people back 281 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 2: to the worst version of themselves. Oh yeah, Columbus discovered America, 282 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: but he was really mean to the indigenous people. You're 283 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: dragging people to the floor. The worst thing that they 284 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 2: ever did defines them, not the best. Most of human 285 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: history is about aspiring to be better than we are. 286 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 2: Certainly the religious faith is entirely predicated on it. In 287 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: the Christian life, woke is about dragging people down to 288 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 2: the worst and most basist level of what they have done, 289 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 2: as opposed to ascending to the best version of themselves. 290 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 2: And I think the ceiling versus the floor, we're moving 291 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 2: towards the Hey. Yeah, sometimes people do things that snink. 292 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't mean that that's who they are. Let's aspire 293 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 2: to something more. And I think that's so innately powerful 294 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 2: for young men. Aspire to be more than you are, bigger, stronger, faster, 295 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 2: do more push ups, read more books, be a better 296 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 2: version of yourself. That is what so many young men 297 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 2: aspire to. And I think they see that in some 298 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 2: level in Trump. That's my thesis. There's an article up 299 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 2: about it, but I do think it's worth contemplating if 300 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 2: you've got young boys or young grandsons out there that 301 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 2: you're thinking about, what they're rising to, What are they raising, 302 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 2: what are they aspiring to. 303 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 1: Sunday Hang is brought to you by Chalk Natural Supplements 304 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: for guys, gals and nothing in between.

To this day, every single one of them 337 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 3: is pissed off about all the things stolen from them 338 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 3: during COVID graduations, homecomings, frum football seasons. They are not 339 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 3: over it, they will never be over it, and they 340 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 3: want to see somebody pay. 341 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 2: I love it, Bucket. I this is you and me. 342 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 4: We're older. 343 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: But this is where we have both wanted there to 344 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 2: be consequences for all the lies that were told us 345 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: during COVID. I think young men are cashing the check 346 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: of the consequence in the way that they are moving, 347 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 2: and I think twenty twenty four, really that is a 348 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 2: huge part of why they moved the way they did. 349 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 2: And remember we had a call it maybe young women 350 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 2: as well. Remember the woman we had call I think 351 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 2: Maddie was her name, from Utah who said this was 352 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 2: the very first time she was able to vote, and 353 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 2: she voted Trump because she was so angry of prom 354 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 2: being taken from her, of them shutting down school. Maybe 355 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 2: we even open up phone lines at some point and 356 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 2: just say, hey, first time ever voters. I would be 357 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 2: interested to hear from them whether this is a cultural 358 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 2: conversation among their groups that are occurring. I think it is. 359 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 2: Maybe we should open up phones for young callers at 360 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 2: some point. 361 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: You know, the COVID madness was really pushed by two things. 362 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: And this is why the proms were canceled and weddings 363 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: were canceled, and you know, school years were canceled and 364 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: all that soft clay conformity and cowardice. People that just 365 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: went along because that's what people were doing, and people 366 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: who were cowards, especially in the decision making roles refused 367 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: to say, this isn't helping. In fact, this is just 368 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: making everything worse. And those are both very anti masculine traits. 369 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: You don't want to be a conformist, you don't want 370 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: to be a coward. So it makes sense that people 371 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 1: have reacted. Young men in particular, have reacted this way.
