They don't make good movies anymore. 52 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: I know I sound like it like some old man, 53 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: but it's true.

It's just a great trip down memory lane. 79 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: And that was back when Twitter was lib dominated and 80 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: I had people, I had blue checks coming after me 81 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: because I did a podcast when the story broke Clay 82 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: and it was Jesse Smollett is lying. That was the 83 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: title of the podcast, and man, that was that was 84 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: a fun one. Look how dare you? How dare you? 85 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, sure. He would hold onto the subway 86 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: sandwich and keep the noose around his neck, like, walked 87 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: into his apartment and then waited for the cops to come. Right, 88 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: I mean, this is it is bonkers.

I'm just giving you 94 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: this thirty years late announcement because I had never seen 95 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: it before. 96 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: I think it's really funny because I haven't thought about 97 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: The English Patient a long time, and I just looked 98 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: up the release date. It was the winter fall of 99 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: ninety six, so I was a senior in high school. 100 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 3: I don't know what I was thinking. 101 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess I thought this is a romantic movie. 102 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: I should take a girl to a romantic movie. It is. 103 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: I have not thought about that movie, thought that bad 104 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: of a date. That there are way worse date movies 105 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: than The English Patient. You know, it's not like, I mean, 106 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: the Schindler's Listening obviously from Seinfeld was meant to like 107 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: they're meant to find the absolute worst possible movie to 108 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: try to make out with somebody drink and yeah, there 109 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: are other other movies that I would say would be far, 110 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: far tougher to watch than that one. All right, well, 111 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: you got some talkbacks here, probably not about The English Patient, 112 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: but here we go. All right, Glenn FF Glenn from 113 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: Ohio who listens on WMA and radio play it. 114 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 4: Hey, Bucket's Glenn from Minsford, Ohio.

I 121 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 1: have been watching at night, so I've been trying to 122 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: space out my babysitting routines. Here for Little Speed, which 123 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 1: is my son's name, which I think you all know. 124 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: So I've been watching the Open, Clay. I think it's 125 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: heading toward Alcaraz Center in the final, and I think 126 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: that Center is gonna win the whole thing. I know 127 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: a lot of peopleould say Alcaraz, it's a great time 128 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: for men's tennis. As for my serve, I will tell 129 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: you I have now gotten. I have not given up. 130 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: I don't want any of you to think that this 131 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: is like, oh like I went out there one time 132 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: before the show for thirty minutes in the sun. It's 133 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: very hot out there. Some of you noticed, why are 134 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: you so sweaty? I don't know, because one hundred and 135 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: four degrees on this court and I got hold on, 136 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: hold on, hold on, buddy, hold on. I got top 137 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: of the line. Now for civilian home use, I guess 138 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: it's all for civilian US. It's not military, but for 139 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: civilian home US. I got a better radar gun, and 140 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: I'm ready to go and get out there. It's got 141 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: like a tripod, the whole thing, because the radar gun, 142 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: it's the one you hold in your hand, is trash 143 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: because it has to be right in line. So I 144 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: showed you guys, one servan at ninety seven miles an hour. 145 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: I have to serve at fifteen times to get one reading, 146 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: basically like it never the readings are not good. So 147 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: I got something that should be way better. And now 148 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: the only challenge has been rained because it the courts 149 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: get wet here every day, so you can't play, and 150 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: there's only outdoor courts where I am in Miami. But 151 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: the answer to your question is before the US Open 152 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: is over, I plan to be out there and we 153 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: will break one hundred, my friends, we will break one hundred. 154 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 2: I am curious to hear, and and and and interested 155 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 2: to see. So Lauren Travis was out that look at that, 156 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 2: look at that vote. 157 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: Of no conference. Three more mph? You know, three more mph. 158 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, you might throw your should 159 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: they're out on that one, I know. I think. The 160 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: other thing I'll tell you is it's amazing how everybody 161 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: everybody on the internet is a is a firearms expert 162 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: and a tennis expert. It's fascinating, you know what I'm saying. 163 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: It's like, oh really really, everyone's got commentary going. 164 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 2: And I'm like, hmm, it is funny for things that 165 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: you know, ninety five percent of people can't do, how 166 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 2: many and look, it could be anything like I'll give 167 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: you an example. You and I could both bench two 168 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five pounds. That is for most men 169 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: in their forties, something that they can't do right. Somehow, 170 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 2: the only people who comment are the people who tell 171 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 2: you that you're super weak, right, like almost no one 172 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: can do that totally.

People 204 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: were saying, like, my daughter plays do you want tennis 205 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: for UCLA? And she can serve that hard? And I'm like, yeah, 206 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: she's an amazing tennis player. What is what are you saying? 207 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: She plays d one at UCLA. She could probably go 208 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: on the pro tour, Like is this a dunk? I 209 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: don't understand. You think you're dunking on me? Like you're 210 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: telling me like that's pretty great. 211 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 3: It's just yeat. 212 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: Like if you're in the ninetieth percentile on anything, you're 213 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 2: pretty good at it, right, I mean that that is. 214 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 2: And yet on the internet, if you're in the ninetieth percentile, 215 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 2: it's as if people are all I mean even I 216 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: guess you know, you could be Michael Jordan and people 217 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 2: are like, well, he's not actually that good because like, well, 218 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 2: you know, maybe the greatest probably the greatest basketball player 219 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 2: of all time. 220 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 3: I think maybe he knows a little bit more. 221 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: I do think to just close a little First of all, 222 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 1: the surf thing is not done. Just so you all 223 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: though there will be there will be follow up, and 224 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: second of all, so don't worry about that. And second 225 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: of all, I think that you'll probably find out that 226 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: center Sinner might become like the far and away best 227 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: tennis player of all time. So we'll see. 228 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 2: He did have a little issue that that's a bold 229 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 2: call when you're talking about the joker Djokovic and how 230 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: good he is right now and then obviously following Federer 231 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 2: and all. So Djokovic is on the downslope right like 232 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: he's almost forty, started thinking about being forty, but then 233 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: the amount that he's racked up in terms of the wins, 234 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 2: most all time majors. But it's really an alcoraz Or 235 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 2: Sinner world that we're coming into here, and they're both 236 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 2: phenomenal players and they're really fun to watch. It is 237 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 2: also fun to see how tennis I don't know if 238 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 2: any sport in our lifetime has transformed more. I mean, 239 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 2: you go back to look at like Jimmy Connors. Jimmy 240 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: Connors looks like the guys that my dad plays golf 241 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 2: with on the weekends. Like these are not These do 242 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: not look like elite athletes running around the tennis s 243 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 2: court hit. 244 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: I know, the rackets are different and everything else. I mean, 245 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: now these guys are They're all an incredible cardiovascular shape. 246 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: They move incredibly well. The girls too, I mean will look. 247 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: Women's tennis is a great spectator sport. Unlike some other things. 248 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: It's not like the WNBA sit situation where people are 249 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: told they have to watch it. In women's tennis, those women 250 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: are incredible athletes and it's a fun it's a good 251 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: spectator experience even. 252 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 2: By the way, I think that's true across the board, 253 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 2: and it's one sign of how people just continue to 254 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 2: get better. Even golf, there's not really John Daies anymore, 255 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 2: or in Hell Cabrera's for those of you out there, 256 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 2: just kind of chubby, not very well. I'm not trying 257 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 2: to take shot to John Daly or and Hell Cabrera, 258 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 2: but they were popular for that reason. There aren't really 259 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 2: very many of those guys in golf. I think you 260 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 2: don't see. 261 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,079 Speaker 1: Guys with a thirty pound gut on them smoking cigarettes 262 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: at the seventh at the seventh he or whatever, wearing 263 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 1: the plaid pants who are world class golfers right now, 264 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: like that you're nazieing. 265 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 2: They don't exist anymore. And I think partly it's the 266 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 2: amount of money, but also people are just more aware 267 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 2: of how to get the most out of your body 268 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 2: and the discipline that it takes to become an excellent athlete. 269 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: Now I think is higher than it ever has been before. 270 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 3: Sunday, Hang with Clay and Buck. 271 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 2: This morning, Buck, as I was getting ready for the show, 272 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 2: as I was walking my fifth grader to school, as 273 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: I do most mornings, the stock market opened. I looked 274 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: down at my phone. I knew it was going to 275 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 2: be a big pop out of the gate. But American 276 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 2: Eagle stock, for those of you who saw the Sydney 277 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 2: Sweeney advertisements and just said, you know what, I think, 278 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 2: a pretty girl in jeans and a company that is 279 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 2: not apologizing for it is likely to do well. Last night, 280 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 2: American Eagle said their Sydney Sweeney ad campaign is so 281 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: successful that they are now increasing their earnings expectations and 282 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 2: their profit expectations. And the stock as I speak to 283 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: you all today is up thirty two and a half 284 00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 2: percent today alone, the stock up for and half dollars. 285 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 2: So if you just heard us talking about this advertisement, 286 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 2: if you just saw them talking about it, on Fox 287 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: News and you thought to yourself, you know what, a 288 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 2: pretty girl in jeans seems like a pretty good idea. 289 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 2: And then as you saw all the controversy stirred up 290 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 2: on the left, people saying, oh, this is eugenics. Maybe 291 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: we can go back and pull the ABC Good Morning 292 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 2: America story where they put on the expert to say, oh, 293 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,839 Speaker 2: this is very troubling. This is calling a blonde hair, 294 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 2: blue eyed girl saying she has good genes as a 295 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: pun on j E A N S G E N 296 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 2: E s a clear double entendre. There, if you thought 297 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 2: this is all ridiculous, this is going to work. I 298 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: give credit to American Eagle. They didn't run and hide. 299 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: I know because my grandma, grandma of my kids, my 300 00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 2: mom took a picture of my son at back to 301 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: school season is standing in front of a Sydney Sweeney ad. 302 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 2: I know that even grandmas were aware of this ad campaign. 303 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: And maybe some of you out there you bought your 304 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 2: kids and your grandkids American Eagle gear just to make 305 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 2: a statement on this buck. I do think that this 306 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 2: is a sign of the culture shift having occurred in 307 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 2: a big way. I think the popularity of football going 308 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 2: through the roof ratings wise, I think it's directly connected 309 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: to this pretty girls sports. It's all coming back together again. 310 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 2: It never left popularity, but they wanted to tell us 311 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 2: that fat androgynist model is going to sell lingerie. Guess 312 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 2: what America is not crazy? People like football, they like 313 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: pretty girls, and my goodness, you could have made a 314 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 2: lot of money by betting on both. 315 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 4: Well. 316 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: I want to find out what the next company is 317 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: that plans to just do an old school all Americana 318 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: good feeling. I mean it seems like a you know, 319 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: clay As. You know, we've talked about marketing execs. Madison 320 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: Avenue ad execs are among the most woke as a profession, 321 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: most woke individuals you'll find anywhere. I mean, they're really 322 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: up there with like Broadway choreographers in terms of their politics, 323 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: and they are living in some other planet. And I 324 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: think because of America's overall prosperity, the dominance of many 325 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: American companies, they've been able to get away with their 326 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: ideological decisions, ideologically based decisions instead of what's based the 327 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: company for a long time. That perhaps is in the 328 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: early stages of changing. We shall see. I will say 329 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: I haven't seen a change in the advertising kind of companies, 330 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: I should say the kind of companies. Advertising and conservative 331 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: media haven't seen that happen yet. We were hearing, you know, 332 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: early rumbles that this may go on, and now I 333 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: think there's a little more of a wait and see 334 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: Trump's first year. Let's see if he stays focused and 335 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: stays on it. But I think that consumers and the 336 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: American people need to continue to push, and that just 337 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: means be vocal about your preferences and put your dollars 338 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: where your heart is. Actually make decisions based upon where 339 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: where companies align with your values. And in some cases 340 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: it's just fun and liking America and wanting to sell 341 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: a good products that can align with your values. It 342 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be you know, everything is draped in 343 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: an American flag and talks about defeating a Communists. Although 344 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: that's fine too, but just here trying to use the old, 345 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: the oldest trick in the marketing book, a beautiful woman 346 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: selling a product to people that they will like. It 347 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: turns out that still works if you're willing to do it. 348 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: It certainly works better than a three hundred pound androgynous 349 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: purple hair ear plugged. You know, whatever we're dealing with, 350 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: it's crazy. 351 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: I do think that the retreat that you saw from 352 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 2: Cracker Barrel, and this is where the impact act of 353 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 2: bud Light really comes in, because I've heard so many 354 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 2: people out there. They get sometimes upset when we talk 355 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 2: about culture, not just on this program but on all programs, 356 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 2: and they're like, tell me more about the tax plan 357 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: for small businesses. And I'm like, okay, yeah, I mean, 358 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 2: I'm in favor of lower taxes all these things, but 359 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 2: culture is how you win. I'm sorry, culture, culture, culture. 360 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 2: The older I get in all facets. Your company's culture 361 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: is how you win your team, both as a actual 362 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 2: athletic team and just the team around you. Your family. 363 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:49,199 Speaker 3: Culture is how you win culture. Culture, culture, and you 364 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 3: have to win culture. And what I am seeing right 365 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 3: now is bucks point. 366 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 2: I told you guys this about FanDuel yesterday, and I 367 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: got a lot of reaction to it. I don't think 368 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 2: most people outside of media understand that the advertising agencies 369 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 2: are the wokest part of American life, and they are 370 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 2: the bottleneck that is putting all this ridiculousness. I would 371 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 2: argue a lot of it is filth out into the 372 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 2: larger cultural arena because they control so much of the 373 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 2: access to the marketplace, and they were the ones pushing 374 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 2: all this androgynous models, all this hey being three hundred 375 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 2: and fifty pounds, that's how we should sell athletic gear. Hey, 376 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: let's put an actual man in a Nike sports bra 377 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 2: and let's say, hey, girls go buy Nike sports bras 378 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: to work out in. I mean, these are the ads 379 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: that they were putting in. They're the reason bud Light 380 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 2: put this trans influencer on a can in the first place. 381 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 3: We have to destroy them. We have to destroy them. 382 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 2: And understand there's a lot of cowardice out there, but 383 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 2: that's how you win culture. That is how you go 384 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 2: back to some form of normalcy in American life. 385 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: I think that it's incumbent upon everybody to remember this 386 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: as they're making their decisions. And you know, we talk 387 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: about Crockett coffee here on the show, and how we're 388 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 1: already you know, some of you who listen to Joe PAGs, 389 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: Joe PAGs are selling Crockett coffee and Ben Ferguson is 390 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: selling Crocket coffee. You know, we're putting money into the 391 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: broader conservative media economy. Because Clay and I remember what 392 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: it was like. I remember the early days. Sponsors that 393 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: would come on you have the same thing, Sponsors that 394 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: would stand with you. They felt like family. And that's 395 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: one of the reasons why we're so attached to many 396 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: of our longtime sponsors here on this show, because they're 397 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: with us shoulder to shoulder. Yeah, they're trying to offer 398 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: up great products to all of you, but they make 399 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: a be very clear about this, and I don't ever 400 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: want to make it feel like this is something we 401 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,239 Speaker 1: don't talk about. They make every sponsor on this and 402 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: other conservative programs out there, they make a decision to 403 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: stand with you, all of you and your values because 404 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: there are a lot of companies out there that we 405 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 1: would make a ton of money for by just telling 406 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: you about their great products. And they're like, I'm sorry, 407 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: have you heard what Klay Travis says about trans guys 408 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: playing on women's field hockey? Have you heard what Buck 409 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: Sexton said about COVID lockdowns and fauci And I'm I'm 410 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: that is the God's honest truth. That is exactly what 411 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:16,199 Speaker 1: goes on. 412 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 2: This is one where strategically the left understands how to 413 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 2: win culture better they created. And again we're taking you 414 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 2: into the weeds a little bit, but I think it's 415 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 2: important for you guys to understand it, and certainly Rush 416 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 2: lived through it because some of the creation of these 417 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 2: groups were designed to try to destroy Rush's show. As 418 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: many of you well remember, the left created entire companies 419 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 2: that they're All they did was reach out to big 420 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 2: brand advertisers and say, are you sure you want to 421 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 2: be affiliated with this conservative by the way, very broadly 422 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: defined conservative, because I did a sports talk show and 423 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 2: I had FanDuel cancel on me over saying men can't 424 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 2: be in women's sports. 425 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 3: I mean, how many sports. 426 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 2: Gamblers do you think in America believe that men should 427 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: be able. 428 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 3: To compete in women's sports? 429 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: I generally don't think the guys we're paying really close 430 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: attention to which pony is gonna come in first or 431 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: which touchdown is going to be the game winner sitting 432 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: there chopping their cigars, like you know, what we really 433 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: need more future is female T shirts. 434 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 2: And by the way, also beer companies. I mean, this 435 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 2: is the Cracker Barrels decision writ large, and I think 436 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 2: a lot of these companies are now going to start 437 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 2: firing some of these marketing agencies, but they're the ones 438 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 2: with the choke hold on culture. You need to see 439 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 2: the Sydney Sweeney ad campaign work because cowardice is common 440 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 2: and most marketers are not particularly smart, and they follow 441 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 2: whichever direction they're led, and if they're told put fat 442 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 2: chicks into sports bras or put dudes with penises into 443 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 2: sports bras to sell women's at athletic gear, they'll do 444 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 2: it because they're cowards and that's what they were told. 445 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,439 Speaker 1: And you see in the case of the cracker barrel 446 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: and all a cracker rail situation. I just want to 447 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: say this too, for I've been reading conservative media and 448 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 1: I've doing all this stuff now since I was in 449 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: high school. So we're going on thirty thirty years of 450 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: seeing what the sponsors are, seeing what the climate is, 451 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: and how advertisers and corporations treat anything that half the country, 452 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: a little niche market known as half the country fully 453 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: endorses and supports. And so there is a sense of 454 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: a I don't know if it's a renaissance, it's certainly 455 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: a turning of the tide. There is a sense that 456 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: things now under this Trump administration are better than they 457 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: have ever been in this regard. There's still a lot 458 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 1: of work to be done though, because it's it's crazy, 459 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: and you see a lot of these shows, Clay, after 460 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: the Trump election, after Trump's election win that have been canceled, 461 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: a lot of these programs that have they were being 462 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: propped up by people and companies selling other stuff to you. Right, 463 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: So it's like the corporation is making money selling you 464 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: toaster ovens or whatever, and then people who are in 465 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: a media subsidiary that the corporation owns are able to 466 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: write checks that are subsidized by the toaster ovens that 467 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: you don't realize are actually paying the bills so that 468 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: you can have Stephen Colbert be a not funny jerk 469 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: on TV every night making thirty million dollars a year 470 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: while the staff is getting fired. That is the lib 471 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: media business model. And once you understand that it is 472 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 1: not free and open, fair choice, and once you understand 473 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: how they've seated themselves top to bottom in these corporate institutions, 474 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: how they've decided to use the levers of power and 475 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: their advantage to their advantage, Clay, this has been worth. 476 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: It's been worth presidential elections. I'm just gonna say it. 477 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: I mean the Democrats have been in office at different 478 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: times because of this apparatus that we are outlining for 479 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: you right now. So trust me, it matters. 480 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 3: And you have to win the culture wars. And this 481 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 3: is why I think this is significant. 482 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 2: And we're winning the culture wars, and we're winning young men, 483 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 2: and we need to add on more steam. Young women 484 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 2: want to look like Sidney Sweeney. Young men want to 485 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 2: play football. They want to be bigger, stronger, faster than 486 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 2: they are. They don't want to be failures, they don't 487 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 2: want to be mediocrits. And this sameness, this cultural androgyny 488 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 2: that is being sold by the left, we're lighting it 489 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 2: on fire. But we need to pour on more fuel. 490 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: We need to continue to stack wins. That's why this 491 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:44,239 Speaker 2: is important. This is how you stack multiple wins. And 492 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 2: I do think we should celebrate and draw attention to 493 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 2: companies that are making the right decisions because other companies 494 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 2: will emulate them because success is contagious and once somebody 495 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: has success, others will follow. 496 00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 497 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: Our civilization is built on and the aspiration to greatness, 498 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 1: to beauty, to discovery, to be to be someone who 499 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: is not just eating the gruel that is handed by 500 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: the commissars and told what to do and what to 501 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: wear and how to speak. And now you're seeing that 502 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,360 Speaker 1: people want to return a restoration to the degree it's 503 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 1: possible to an America that wants greatness beautiful things, and 504 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: that includes some cases beautiful people. 505 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 3: Sundays with Clay and Voss. 506 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 2: I gotta be honest, I didn't watch a lot of news. 507 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 2: I'm a sports guy. I didn't watch a lot of 508 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 2: news on television. I've always been a reader and I 509 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 2: never trust video. I always have known that because I'm 510 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 2: in television that I love doing sports television, for instance, 511 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 2: but I've always known that it's hard to get great 512 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 2: in depth knowledge from television on anything. This is the reality. 513 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 2: Television is a SoundBite era. And I always thought it 514 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 2: was funny because I've always done radio two and people say, Okay, 515 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,719 Speaker 2: what's the difference between writing, which is where I started 516 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 2: and by the way, please go buy my new book Balls. 517 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 2: I'm gonna talk about this a little bit more later 518 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 2: in the week, but it's up pre ordered. I want 519 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 2: this thing to be everywhere. I think it's important. But 520 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 2: people say, what's the difference between writing radio and TV? 521 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 3: Writing? For me? 522 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 2: Is just me in front of a computer screen. Every 523 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 2: word is mine and there's nobody else helping, So, for 524 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 2: better or worse, I have complete control of every argument 525 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 2: that I make in a written article. And that is why, 526 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: in many ways, writing is still my favorite discipline because 527 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 2: it's just me sitting in front of a computer screen 528 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 2: and there's no one else to help, and for better 529 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 2: or worse, it's it's on me to make an argument, 530 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 2: or to write a column, or to write a book 531 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: that hopefully is entertaining and helps to make people think 532 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 2: on a deeper level. Radio we have the luxury of time, 533 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 2: so I can sit with you for three hours every day. 534 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 2: Buck can sit with you for three hours every day. 535 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: Over time, we become in some ways a family because 536 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 2: you have fifteen hours a week to spend with us, 537 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: and we love all of you that spend that much time. 538 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 2: But you're going to learn about our families. You're gonna 539 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 2: learn about the things that we like, the serious things, 540 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 2: the not serious things. We hang out. It's basically just 541 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 2: one long form conversation. First time I did television, I 542 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 2: did television. I came out in a studio and they 543 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 2: were like, that was amazing. 544 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 3: How was that so good. 545 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 2: That was so great. I was like, it's three minutes. 546 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 2: I wish my wife had that standard. 547 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 3: There you go. 548 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,719 Speaker 2: But I'm but it's three minutes. Like you go on 549 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 2: television and you give a couple of time and then 550 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 2: you're gone. And there is not a great deal of 551 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 2: nuance or complexity or depth that television can convey. And 552 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 2: so I was always a little bit skeptical of television 553 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 2: in general when it comes to complicated issues. And so 554 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 2: I didn't watch I didn't watch a lot of CNN. 555 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 2: I've never watched MSNBC, but I didn't really pay much 556 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: attention to Fox News. I now think it's funny. Fox 557 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 2: News is the most I now pay a lot more 558 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 2: attention to news. You have to be crazy to watch MSNBC. 559 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 2: I'm not like I watch MSNBC. I read the New 560 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 2: York Times, the Washington Post, so to kind of have 561 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 2: some sense of what's going on. They live in a 562 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 2: crazy world. People say, oh, Fox News, it's super right, wink. 563 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 2: Fox News is just normal. And this is what they 564 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 2: did to me, and this is what they try to 565 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: do to anybody like me. I've talked about this before. 566 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 2: They try to always label me controversial. If you read 567 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 2: any article about me or somebody's talking about me, within 568 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 2: thirty seconds, they will say Clay Travis, the controversial sometimes 569 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 2: firebrand right wing conservative political commentator. 570 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 3: I don't think I'm controversial at all. I say this. 571 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: I've been saying this for fifteen years now, as people 572 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 2: have constantly labeled me controversial. There's nothing wrong with controversy, 573 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 2: but I don't think most of my comments or opinions 574 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 2: are remotely controversial. They labeled me super controversial for saying 575 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 2: men shouldn't play in women's sports, and again, I have 576 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 2: nothing wrong with controversy. But when you are on the 577 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: side of eighty or ninety percent of people, what's contra 578 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 2: tu reversial is the other side. But that is an 579 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 2: emblematic of how they took over the culture. Is they 580 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 2: label anyone, anyone at all who is just not left wing. 581 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,719 Speaker 2: You're considered to be right wing, and they try to 582 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 2: label you as controversial, and it has an impact. I 583 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 2: give tremendous credit to iHeart for hosting this show, but 584 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 2: the most left wing industry in the country is advertising. 585 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 2: This show's audience is massive across all five hundred and 586 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 2: fifty five stations right now. There are millions of you 587 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 2: that will listen to me today on this program. Y'all 588 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 2: ever think about the fact that we've never had. 589 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 3: A car advertisement on this program. 590 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 2: Flip on MSNBC. Every car brand in America advertises on MSNBC. 591 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 2: We've never had a restaurant on this program. 592 00:30:58,760 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 3: Flip on CNN. 593 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 2: Every restaurant in America advertises on those brands. And I'm 594 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 2: thinking about this a lot because I'm going to be 595 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 2: potentially starting a new media company, and when you rely 596 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 2: on media companies being founded and funded and existing or 597 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 2: even having success based on advertising dollars, the left has 598 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 2: been brilliant in going after anybody who advertises on anything 599 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 2: other than far left wing and labeling them controversial to 600 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 2: try to create the idea that brands can't be associated 601 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 2: with people like me, or people like Buck or frankly, 602 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 2: people like you. Think about that, never a car, never 603 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 2: a restaurant in the entire history of us being on 604 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: this program. It's crazy, right Well, I think it ties 605 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: in with the story that I want to talk about 606 00:31:55,720 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 2: this morning. I'm reading an American Eagle headline can Eagle 607 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 2: gain customers after their Sydney Sweeney ads? Stock par price 608 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 2: has also skyrocketed. It's nearly doubled since they debuted this ad. 609 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 3: So if you had just. 610 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 2: Said, hey, that's a pretty girl in jeans, that's probably 611 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 2: gonna work, and you went and bought American eagle stock, 612 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 2: you've doubled your money just in the last few months, 613 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 2: nearly over this. But I thought this was interesting. This 614 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 2: is again from the Wall Street Journal. They said that 615 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 2: they have added nearly a million customers since they. 616 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 3: Debuted the Sydney Sweeney ads. 617 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 2: And not only that, they have immediately sold out. And 618 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 2: I don't even know what these things are. I'm not 619 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 2: exactly the hippest person on the planet. When it comes 620 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 2: to close. As many of you know, the Sweeney cinched 621 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 2: waist denim jacket sold out in one day, and the 622 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 2: Sydney gene and I'm reading from the Wall Street Journal, 623 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 2: this is not my description. An ultra wide leg with 624 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 2: a butterfly on the back pocket sold out in a week. 625 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 2: They added a million customers, and they immediately sold out 626 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 2: of everything that she was wearing in the ads. Okay, 627 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 2: here's something else. The owner CEO, Jay Schottenstein, big Ohio 628 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 2: state guy. 629 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 3: By the way, Ohio State Buckeye. 630 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 2: He is seventy one years old, and he said he 631 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: is also an Orthodox Jew, and he said, quote according 632 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:43,239 Speaker 2: to The Wall Street Journal, he was perplexed at the 633 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 2: criticism of Sidney Jeanie. Sidney Sweeney has good genes because 634 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 2: remember they said that was, oh, this is a Nazi ad, 635 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 2: this is about eugenics. This guy, an Orthodox Jew, actually 636 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: said his mother in law grew up in Nazi Germany 637 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 2: and watched as the synagogue across the street from her 638 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 2: home was burned to the ground. Quote I'm very conscious 639 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 2: of that term. 640 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:12,919 Speaker 3: He said. 641 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 2: He felt that the team had felt the campaign was 642 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 2: offensive in any way, we never would have done it. 643 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 2: Orthodox Jew whose mother in law lived through actual Nazi Germany, said, Hey, 644 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 2: this is a crazy idea that you would try to 645 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 2: brand this a Nazi advertising campaign because we put a 646 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 2: pretty girl in denim, and the denim immediately sold out. 647 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 3: Do you know why? 648 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 2: Because pretty girls sell products, Sexy products sell. I was 649 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 2: laughing about this the other day. Victoria's Secret as a 650 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 2: new CEO, she's having a lot of success. Do you 651 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 2: know the new Victoria's Secret CEO's plan make a laningerie 652 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 2: sexy again. It turns out putting unattractive models in panties 653 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 2: and bras doesn't make anyone want to buy more panties 654 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 2: than bras. I'm fat. They don't want to put me 655 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 2: in a male underwear campaign. It will be the least 656 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:21,319 Speaker 2: successful underwear on the planet. Nobody's gonna see me in 657 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 2: underwear and be like, I want to look like that guy. 658 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 2: I want to look like that forty six year old 659 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 2: dad of three. They need a super ripped guy who's 660 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 2: at least gonna make you think, hey, maybe I'll be 661 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 2: more attractive if I wear this underwear. This is people 662 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 2: want to look better than they actually are. They want 663 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 2: the fantasy of hey, I'm gonna put this on and 664 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna look like a supermodel. This is not you know, 665 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 2: they don't sell athletic shoes by putting fat guys in 666 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 2: in sneakers and saying, hey, look at this guy's eighteen 667 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 2: inch vertical. They have a guy who can jump over 668 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 2: the moon in the tennis shoes, and they make you 669 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 2: think you're going to jump over the moon too. I 670 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 2: should start an advertising agency. I've actually thought about this. 671 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 2: I would sell everything better than what these morons at 672 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: these advertising agencies do. But I want to give credit 673 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,760 Speaker 2: because American Eagle said basically screw you to all their critics. 674 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,800 Speaker 2: Stock price has nearly doubled. They're selling out like crazy, 675 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 2: They've got a million extra customers. And all they did 676 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,280 Speaker 2: was go back to the old adage of sex cells. 677 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 2: Put a pretty girl in denim instead of some ridiculous 678 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 2: androgynous you know, miss, I don't even know what the unigender. 679 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 2: I don't even know what these terms are, pan sexual, 680 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 2: whatever the heck it is that nobody wants to be. 681 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,359 Speaker 2: They just put a pretty girl in jeans and they 682 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,760 Speaker 2: immediately sold out. Maybe America is gonna be fine.
