00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast.

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 2: Second hour of Clay and Buck kicks off right now.

4
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 2: We had mentioned Disney to you before, and if you've

5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 2: been holding Disney stock for the last decade or so,

6
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 2: hasn't really been a very good investment. Went up for

7
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 2: a bit during COVID when everybody was screaming everything, but

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 2: now things have started to come back down a bit,

9
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:30,319
Speaker 2: and seems a part of it is that Disney is

10
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 2: a woke company from the top down, from a content perspective.

11
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,319
Speaker 3: I'm sure from an HR perspective as well.

12
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 2: Although you are starting to see this isn't a side,

13
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 2: but you are starting to see some people are concerned

14
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 2: that the diversity hiring practices of their company may subject

15
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 2: them to possible lawsuit for discrimination in the aftermath of

16
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 2: the Supreme Court decision. That's going to take some time

17
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 2: to play out, but we're still watching that. But regardless

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 2: of their HR policies, Disney is a woke content creator.

19
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,919
Speaker 2: Now we've seen this. We're we're watching this play out

20
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: time and again. The recent Disney movies that we've seen

21
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 2: that have particularly woke have not done well. I believe

22
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: I think I saw was this. Libs of TikTok shared

23
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: this one. I had Hia Rychick, who's the Libs of

24
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: TikTok founder. She was on the Clay Unpuck podcast this week,

25
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 2: which if you didn't hear it, you should check it

26
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 2: out by subscribing to Theklay Travison Buck Sexton Show podcast.

27
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: But she put out some numbers. I'll here you go,

28
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 2: new diverse, snow White, and the Seven Dwarfs movie has

29
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 2: only one dwarf and snow White is Hispanic. This is

30
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: Libs of TikTok writing. Disney says they want to avoid

31
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 2: reinforcing stereotypes. Disney lost nine hundred million dollars on their

32
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 2: last eight theatrical releases. I guess they're not done losing

33
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: money yet. Play This is interesting to me because, first off,

34
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: you had the argument made, and I believe Peter Dinklage

35
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: was publicly he's the Game of Thrones actor who is

36
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 2: a little person suffers from the condition of or I

37
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 2: should say, is somebody who has the condition of dwarf ism.

38
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 2: But he had made the case that the story was

39
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 2: really backwards and ridiculous. There are some this is based

40
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 2: on the early release photos of the movie that's going

41
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 2: to come out in March of twenty twenty four. Everyone

42
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 2: now is now standard height except for one. There's one

43
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 2: dwarf in snow White and the seven dwarves, and.

44
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: What about the other dwarf actors? What about people?

45
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: For who is you know, it's fascinating. Peter Dinklage played

46
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: a dwarf in Game of Thrones. Obviously is also somebody

47
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 2: who is a dwarf and it was probably the most

48
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: you know, say it was him, and it was for

49
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: those of you who watched the show Rob Stark, but

50
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 2: for a few seasons there, Peter Dinklish plays the most

51
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 2: sympathetic and most beloved character on the show, probably right

52
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 2: breakthrough role of his of a lifetime on a show

53
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 2: that had at one point had over ten million people.

54
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 2: I think it got close to like fifteen million people

55
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: watching Game of throw over twenty million over twenty yeah, yeah,

56
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: so a massive, massive success. Can you imagine if you're

57
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 2: an actor in Hollywood and you are a dwarf and

58
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: this this opportunity comes up, and it's oh no, now

59
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 2: to not reinforce stereotypes, we're going to have like average

60
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: height people playing the dwarves. I mean, why is that

61
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: a better approach to this?

62
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 4: Right?

63
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 3: All the dwarves are the good guys. The dwarves are

64
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 3: heroes in this.

65
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 4: Also, what is the stereotpe type about dwarves from Snow White?

66
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 4: I mean, first of all, it's a fairy tale, let's

67
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 4: begin here. Second, there are seven different, if I remember correctly,

68
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 4: personalities in the Dwarves. If the Dwarfs all had the

69
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 4: same personality, that would be the stereotype, right, Instead there

70
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 4: was grumpy happy. I mean, this is a kid's show, right,

71
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 4: isotype dwarves are short? Because I think that that's that's

72
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 4: just I don't think that's a stereotype. That's what I'm saying, Like,

73
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 4: what is what is the stereotype in Snow White? In fact,

74
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 4: there are seven different character Now they're obviously like broadly

75
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,159
Speaker 4: construed because it's a kid's movie. But the idea is

76
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 4: the dwarves are not all similar. In fact, they all

77
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,559
Speaker 4: have distinct personality types. But this is to me buck

78
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 4: emblematic of why Disney is collapsing because Bob Iger, the

79
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 4: CEO of Disney, has allowed the woke virus to spread

80
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 4: so deeply throughout the entire company. If Walt Disney were

81
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 4: still alive today, he would lose his mind. And I

82
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 4: want to play. We've got a couple of cuts. Bob

83
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 4: Iger set down yesterday on CNBC and he was directly

84
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 4: asked about let's just lay out what's going on. Theme

85
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 4: Park attendance hit a decade low. According to The Wall

86
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 4: Street Journal on July fourth, the Pixar movie that just

87
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 4: came out is the lowest grossing Pixar movie of all time.

88
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 4: Disney Plus is losing subscribers. ESPN, which is owned by Disney,

89
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 4: is hemorrhaging subscribers. All of these are super woke companies now,

90
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 4: and Bob Iger said, the idea that we are trying

91
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 4: to sexualize children's entertainment is preposterous. I believe is what

92
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 4: he said. I want to play that cut, and then

93
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 4: I want to play you. I believe this is from

94
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 4: the DeSantis team. They put out clips of all of

95
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 4: these top Disney execsecutives talking about their desire to directly

96
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 4: sexualize children's programming.

97
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 3: Listen to this.

98
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 4: The notion that Disney is in any way sexualizing children.

99
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 4: Quite frankly, this is preposterous and inaccurate.

100
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 3: Okay, that is what he said. Buck.

101
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 4: Now listen to top Disney creative executives talking about their

102
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 4: desire to sexualize Disney content in internal company conversations.

103
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 3: Just listen to this.

104
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 5: Hello and welcome to the Disney Plus this is me

105
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 5: Pride Celebration Spectacular. Our leadership over there has been so

106
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 5: welcoming to like my like not at all secret gay agendas.

107
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 3: They've been really open to exploring queer stories.

108
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 5: I'm on the production side and so kind of the

109
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 5: only way to have these like canonical trans characters, canonical

110
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 5: asexual characters, canonical bisexual characters, is to give them stories

111
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 5: where they can like be their whole selves.

112
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 2: So we no longer say ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,

113
00:06:58,680 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 2: it's hello everyone or hello.

114
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 5: So we were targeting gen Z and millennials, we were

115
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 5: targeting a younger contents, going to kids who don't know

116
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 5: any of this.

117
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 2: So okay, they're obviously I mean, there's there's a huge

118
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: disconnect with what Iger says and what the reality is.

119
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 2: But I think it's it's worth noting. How is it

120
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 2: that they can speak in their minds these different individuals

121
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 2: and the head of creative at Disney, who was talking

122
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 2: about her pant sexual and and and I don't know

123
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 2: if it was a pant sexual and transsect and transgender

124
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 2: or you know, there were like two or non non

125
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 2: binary and pant sexual. You know, she has like an

126
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 2: eight year old and a ten year old. She says,

127
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 2: they just happened to be. What are the chances?

128
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 3: Right?

129
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: And you see this and people are pointing this out too,

130
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 2: with some Hollywood celebrity women who suddenly have three children

131
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 2: who are transgender, who are like age three, five, and nine.

132
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 2: You're like, well, is that you or is that the

133
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: kids always pushing right? It's efficol, of course, it's always them.

134
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 2: But I think that this is where this is where

135
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: this is all going to go. The people who buy

136
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: into this, really this religion of gender identity, which is

137
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: what it has become. It's a belief system unto itself.

138
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 2: They think that telling a seven year old about being cisgender,

139
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 2: non binary, transgender and all this stuff, that's not sexualizing

140
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:29,559
Speaker 2: children because that's inherent at birth to these kids, which

141
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 2: is crazy, but that's what they in their minds. Oh,

142
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: we're just helping them be what they are at a

143
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 2: younger age. What I think, though, is important for the

144
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: you know, the the non LGBTQ plus activity like just

145
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 2: people out there to remember is heterosexual couples and and

146
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 2: and others don't expose their children at age six and seven.

147
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: Like nobody was talking to me about sex when I

148
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: was seven years old, about gender, about anything.

149
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 3: They were just letting me be right.

150
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: So they're the ones that put this stuff on the

151
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: kids that are younger and younger age. But they think

152
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 2: that they're doing something that isn't inherently sexualizing children because

153
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 2: they just assume that there are different rules for what

154
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 2: they're doing.

155
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 3: You see what I mean?

156
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 2: Like yeah, like you know, people listening to this would

157
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: not have the conversations with their six year old about

158
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 2: where babies come from for example, like that people wait

159
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 2: till they get older, like we all know this, the

160
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: birds and the bees, all that stuff. This activist community

161
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 2: of the gender identity set, they think, oh, it's not

162
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 2: inappropriate to talk about this stuff, that you could actually

163
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 2: be a boy when you're a girl or a girl

164
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 2: you're a boy because it's from birth and they need

165
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 2: to know it or else they'll never live their true selves.

166
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 2: It's crazy, but this is what they really think. This

167
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: is what they really believe.

168
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 4: And beyond how woke it is to do this remake

169
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 4: Snow Whites, Latina whatever. The dwarves are no longer dwarves.

170
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 4: They're also boys and girls.

171
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 5: Now.

172
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 4: What this really reflects, though, Buck, in addition to the

173
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 4: woke virus spreading through all of Disney, is the absolute

174
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 4: paucity of new ideas. All they're doing is remaking an

175
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 4: animated film as a live action film. And they did

176
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 4: it for Aladdin, and they did it for Little Mermaid,

177
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 4: And it's a desperate failure of original thought inside of

178
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 4: Disney that their plan for how to invest hundreds of

179
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 4: millions of dollars to try and make hundreds of millions

180
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 4: of dollars more is not to create new, original, compelling

181
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 4: programming and characters, which are all failing. By the way,

182
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 4: because I think this woke virus has infected so much

183
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 4: of their company. It's that they're just trying to remake

184
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: things that are one hundred years old. I mean, at

185
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 4: the time, and I'm a big fan of business and

186
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 4: of Walt Disney in general, at the time that Disney

187
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 4: began to create animated films, it was a revolutionary idea

188
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 4: to even undertake. And so what he was doing was

189
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 4: incredibly bold and creative, and early Pixar did that too, Buck.

190
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 4: It was a revitalization of the Disney brand. And then

191
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 4: they fired John Lassiter, who was probably as close to

192
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 4: a modern day Walt Disney as they've had inside of Pixar,

193
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 4: because they said that he had inappropriately interacted with some coworkers.

194
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 4: And since then their entire business has collapsed on animated films.

195
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 4: Pixar can't put out anything that anybody likes, and it's

196
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 4: because the unique talent that was driving all of Pixar's

197
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 4: success was actually about the foundation that was connected to Disney.

198
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 4: And now Bob Iiger. I really think this is a

199
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 4: perfect example, and they're going to study this in the

200
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 4: years ahead. There's a perfect example of a CEO doing

201
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 4: what's best for him. There's a story in the Wall

202
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 4: Street Journal that just came down before we came on air,

203
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 4: Buck talking about how Bob Iger sits in his office

204
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 4: and shows off the massive yacht that he's building a

205
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 4: new yacht to replace his old yacht. Bob Iger is

206
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 4: doing what's best for him. He's not doing what's best

207
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 4: for Disney. And so many of these CEOs are doing

208
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 4: what's best for them personally, not best for the company.

209
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 4: Because if Bob Iger cared about Disney, he would come

210
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 4: out and say this woke and I wish I could

211
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 4: curse on the air.

212
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 3: But this woke bs is over.

213
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 4: Our job is to entertain kids and families of all ages,

214
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 4: and this idea of dressing up men as fairy godmothers

215
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 4: and of remaking snow White as the multicultural United Colors

216
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 4: of Benetton ad that is going to fail and doing

217
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 4: away with dwarfs because we're afraid that it's going to

218
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 4: be offensive if we have too many dwarfs. Ultimately, the

219
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 4: market is responding to him. Were talking off air, I

220
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 4: wish I could sell this Snow White movie short. It's

221
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 4: coming out in March. It's going to bomb the likes

222
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 4: of which you have not seen in years, even for Disney,

223
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 4: because the overwhelming majority of parents, White, Black, Asian, Hispanic

224
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 4: are saying, yeah, this is not what we want. And

225
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 4: I would sell short Disney stock right now, even though

226
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 4: the stock has not moved in nine years. And this,

227
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 4: to me, Disney is getting bud lighted and they don't

228
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 4: want to acknowledge it yet, but a lot of people

229
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 4: out there are saying, Okay, I'll go spend my money elsewhere.

230
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 4: And this is becoming significant. It's a big deal. Indiana

231
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,719
Speaker 4: Jones is not doing that well. I went and saw

232
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 4: it because I love Indiana Jones. They have crushed Star Wars.

233
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 4: The Marvel franchise is wobbly now and Indiana Jones is

234
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 4: not doing well. And Bob Igers should have to take

235
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 4: ownership of this because he allowed it to happen. But

236
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 4: this is becoming, this is a big trend. They just

237
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 4: had to shut down a Star Wars hotel. When's the

238
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 4: last time Disney shut down a hotel because nobody would

239
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 4: stay in it. I don't think it's ever happened before.

240
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 2: I hope that this continues, that the public, the public,

241
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 2: it's not even outcry decision making.

242
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 3: People decide they.

243
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 2: Don't want this stuff, and the people in charge of

244
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 2: making it have the economic consequences come along with it.

245
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 2: That's the only way this stops. I mean, it's amazing

246
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: you see this ever, I mean, you know every Netflix

247
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: show now pretty much that ken. I just there's this

248
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: real push also for anything in the fantasy genre has

249
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 2: to be the most diverse thing possible, right, so I

250
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 2: can tell there's and left wing quarters. You know, there's

251
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 2: a lot of resentment of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

252
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 2: You can tell because it wasn't diverse. Lord of the

253
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 2: Rings trilogy wasn't diverse, and it was one of the

254
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 2: most games Thrones early on was not diverse. There's a

255
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 2: bunch of white people, and it made billions of dollars,

256
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 2: the Lord of the Rings franchise, the movies, and so

257
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 2: now everything that is supposed and look, what did anyone

258
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 2: even talk about the prequel to the Lord of the

259
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 2: Rings after like a day when it came out on Amazon.

260
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 2: Didn't the spend a billion dollars on that? Yeah, so

261
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 2: I was watching this and I'm like, uh, what exactly

262
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 2: are we trying to prove here?

263
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 3: Like, well, what is going on? It was, it was

264
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 3: horrible top to.

265
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 2: Bottom, but it also, you know, it looked everything has

266
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 2: to be like the front page of a of a

267
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 2: college college magazine. College magazine today, it's great college if

268
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: they do a photo of kids on a college campus

269
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 2: from Harvard or Colgate or wherever, it's got to be.

270
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 2: You know, black guy, Asian girl, uh, you know hispanic guy.

271
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 2: You know, someone is clearly non binary, and like maybe

272
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 2: in the back you allow white guy if he's not

273
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 2: being too prop and like that's every college, you know,

274
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 2: look book or whatever they call it has to be.

275
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 2: That's now the way they make content online for Netflix

276
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 2: and these other things. And people just going like, you know,

277
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 2: why what about every commercial that you see on television? Now,

278
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 2: if you watched American television advertising, you would think that

279
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 2: white people are never married.

280
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 4: Like there is no white man and white woman in

281
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 4: any almost any commercial that exist on television. If it's

282
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 4: all multi race, it's all it's all selling this idea

283
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 4: that all that matters is the color of your skin.

284
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 4: Ironically enough, born on America's darkest day of nine to eleven,

285
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 4: Tunnel the Towers Foundation's been helping America's heroes for more

286
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 4: than twenty years. When a first responder, a military service

287
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 4: member doesn't come home and young kids are left behind,

288
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 4: Tunnel the Towers pays the mortgage on the family home

289
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 4: to lift the financial burden for severely injured veterans first responders.

290
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 3: As well.

291
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 4: Tunnel the Towers builds mortgage free smart homes, enabling severely

292
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 4: injured heroes to move around more independently through their veteran

293
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 4: Homelessness program Tunnel the Towers, providing housing and services to

294
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 4: homeless veterans more than five hundred last year. Triple that

295
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 4: amount this year. Because all veterans who honorably served, whether

296
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 4: in peacetime or war, deserve our nation's gratitude. Join Tunnel

297
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 4: to Towers on its mission to do good. Never forget

298
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 4: nine to eleven or the sacrifices of the country's heroes.

301
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 1: One truth revealed after another. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton

302
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 1: Welcome back in Play Travis Buck Sexton Show. We're talking

303
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: about woke Disney and the fact that the company's collapsing

304
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: right now. It's interesting Buck to me which brands will

305
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: be acknowledged as suffering from going political because everybody's like,

306
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: oh yeah, bud Lights screwed.

307
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 3: They totally destroyed themselves. I think the.

308
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 4: Slow move of Disney and ESPN's collapse into wokenet has

309
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 4: made people less willing to acknowledge it, interestingly, Buck, than

310
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 4: they would have if there were one crystallizing moment like

311
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 4: there was with bud Light.

312
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 3: Does that make sense.

313
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 4: It's been a slow descent, actually worse off for the

314
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,679
Speaker 4: brand than one event, but people won't acknowledge it.

315
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that I would agree.

316
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 4: And so what is the impact, Like, how do you

317
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 4: get back out of that mess? Is one they have

318
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 4: to figure out. And one thing I would suggest that

319
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 4: Disney could use, maybe bob Byger himself a little bit

320
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 4: more testosterone willingness to stand up to the woke people

321
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 4: in your company and say no, this is not what's

322
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 4: in the best interest of the brand. I'm going to

323
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 4: stand up to you because I'm the CEO. But unfortunately

324
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 4: Disney probably has the lowest amount of testosterone in its

325
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 4: company's history because the country has the lowest amount of

326
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 4: testosterone in its country. You know, testosterone levels drop by

327
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 4: fifty percent over the past several decades. With Chalk's all

328
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 4: natural supplements, you can increase your testosterone level by twenty

329
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 4: percent over the next three months. How do you do it? Well,

Speaker 4: Choq dot com.

336
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 2: You know this isn't a surprise to us at all,

337
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 2: but it's something we should note anyway. When Democrats get

338
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 2: what they want from the Supreme Court, they insist that.

339
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 3: It is settled law of the land.

340
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 2: Sacro sank almost like Moses handing down the Ten Commandments,

341
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 2: you know, the tablets. But when they don't get what

342
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 2: they want, they just find a way to ignore it,

343
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 2: get around it, play games, force further suits to be brought,

344
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 2: and it just reminds me, well, I'm reminded of all

345
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 2: of that based on the Biden administration decision to once

346
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 2: again forgive student loans. Now it's a lot smaller in this,

347
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 2: and I don't like the term forgive, wipe away transfer

348
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 2: the debt. Perhaps that's a better because they're just transferring

349
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 2: the debt to the taxpayer. But the Biden administration has

350
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 2: announced that it would cancel education debt for eight hundred

351
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 2: and four thousand borrowers, a total of thirty nine billion

352
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 2: dollars in relief. Now they were trying for hundreds of

353
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:11,119
Speaker 2: billions before, and the Supreme Court said no. No, you

354
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 2: can't just do that. I think it was four hundred

355
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 2: and thirty billion was what the Supreme Court had to say, sorry,

356
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: and that would have been giving. It would have been

357
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 2: effectively delivering money to thirty seven million borrowers in America.

358
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 2: I'm just going to point out that we're gonna we're

359
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 2: going into an election cycle here where they will do

360
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: everything they can to make you think the economy is

361
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 2: better than it is and to buy off with your

362
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,360
Speaker 2: tax dollars as many people as possible. We often talk

363
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 2: about Clay, how you've got about twenty some odd thousand

364
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 2: votes that go a different way in Georgia, Arizona, Michigan,

365
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 2: and you have a different outcome for the twenty twenty election.

366
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 2: So while we can look at thirty nine billion dollars

367
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 2: for eight hundred thousand borrowers and say, well it's small,

368
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 2: we're a country three hundred and forty million people. Yeah,

369
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 2: but if eight hundred thousand of those, now a lot

370
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 2: of them are probably Democrats, you know, we'd have to

371
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 2: dig into the numbers here, but some of them are

372
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 2: probably independents, some of them probably live in these states,

373
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,879
Speaker 2: and with with this kind of a maneuver, Clay. It

374
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: reminds me a little bit of what you deal with

375
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 2: the New York City with rent control. Why is rent

376
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 2: control impossible to get rid of in New York City

377
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 2: Because there're something like a million people have rent control

378
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 2: apartments in New York and there's different sort of statuses

379
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 2: of them. But if you try to touch rent control

380
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 2: in New York City, you know what happens. Every single

381
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 2: one of the people with the rent they will go

382
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 2: to the mat They will, you know, because it makes

383
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 2: a huge difference in their bottom line. How many of

384
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,120
Speaker 2: these eight hundred thousand borrowers now have been bought off

385
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 2: effectively by the Biden administration, assuming this all goes through

386
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,879
Speaker 2: with tax dollars of other people. This is how Democrats

387
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 2: play the game, man. I mean, it's like running for

388
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,959
Speaker 2: student council president and handing out a slice of pizza

389
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 2: to everybody to vote for you before they're actually casting

390
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 2: ballots and using money that you took up for a

391
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 2: different collection.

392
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,239
Speaker 4: That's what they're doing well, and it also speaks to

393
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 4: what you're saying about rent control and everything else is

394
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 4: once a policy is implemented, once people get used to

395
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 4: the idea that they get something you can ever take

396
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 4: it back. And this goes to the psychology of the

397
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 4: way people think. Buck, I'm sure you've seen these studies.

398
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 4: A lot of people won't risk money that they physically

399
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 4: have in their hand. They've done studies where they give

400
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 4: you a dollar, and if they give you a physical

401
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,120
Speaker 4: dollar to hold in your hand, you are less likely

402
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 4: to risk that dollar because you have it in your

403
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 4: possession than.

404
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 3: If they tell you that you have it.

405
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 4: And once you give, and this goes to why entitlement

406
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 4: reform is so difficult. Once you tell people, hey, you're

407
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 4: going to get this for social Security, you're going to

408
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,360
Speaker 4: get this for where we now define something in our

409
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 4: national discourse as a cut if we merely slow the

410
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 4: growth under which something is expanding. Oh, they're trying to

411
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 4: cut Medicare, they're trying to cut social Security. No, no, no,

412
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 4: we're just saying that you can only and this isn't

413
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 4: unique to America, by the way, this is basically everywhere.

414
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 4: Look at what happened in France when Emmanuel Macrone tried

415
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 4: to increase the overall age of retirement. Because in France

416
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 4: you get a full pension. You did it's something like

417
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 4: sixty years old. And I may be a little bit

418
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 4: wrong on that, but it's a very youthful I think

419
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 4: in many ways age at which you can retire in

420
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 4: full benefits and have a pension. Maybe it was sixty two,

421
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 4: but not a very old age in general, and they

422
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 4: tried to bump it up, I think to sixty four.

423
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 4: And I may be a little bit off on those numbers,

424
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 4: but it's emblematic to the human condition in general. Now,

425
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 4: what Biden is trying to do is avoid having to

426
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 4: put his policy in front of Congress. Because this is

427
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 4: why this was such a clear political ploy, and it's

428
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 4: somewhat brilliant on a pure political basis. Joe Biden, right

429
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 4: before midterm elections in twenty twenty two, said I'm forgiving

430
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 4: four hundred and forty billion dollars in student loan debt.

431
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 4: And if you agree that you shouldn't have to pay

432
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 4: your student loan debt, young people, go vote in the

433
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 4: midterm elections. Democrats Republicans are going to take this away.

434
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 4: And he didn't put it in front of the House

435
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 4: or the Senate because Democrats wouldn't have voted for that

436
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 4: policy to pass. And he did it with a unconstitutional

437
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 4: justification then the Supreme Court says, no, you can't do that.

438
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 4: June takes them ten months. They come out and they

439
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,199
Speaker 4: say no, you can't do that, it's unconstitutional. And what

440
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 4: does he do? He says, this is not a normal court.

441
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 4: And in twenty twenty four he's gonna run, or Democrats

442
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 4: will run if it's not Biden on Hey, Republican Supreme Court,

443
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,959
Speaker 4: all those right wing idiologs, they kept me from giving

444
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,479
Speaker 4: you relief from your student loans. If you disagree with that,

445
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 4: you should go vote against Republicans in twenty twenty four.

446
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 4: He told you when this came out, exactly what he

447
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 4: was doing. We can tell you the game plan that

448
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 4: he's running. But it works for some of those young

449
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 4: voters who aren't sophisticated enough to understand that they're being

450
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 4: played and that Joe Biden is doing something that he

451
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 4: knows is unconstitutional in an effort to increase their turnout

452
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 4: to vote for him.

453
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 2: See, this is my premise right now, and this is

454
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 2: subject to change. And I keep saying I can get

455
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 2: I can guarantee that six months from now there'll be

456
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 2: things about the political dynamics in this country that will say, wow,

457
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,719
Speaker 2: if only we had known that or you know who

458
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 2: could have seen this coming. But if it's if Trump

459
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 2: is the nominee, they can count on every Democrat vote

460
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,239
Speaker 2: I think the last time around to show up for him.

461
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 2: This time, Democrats are going to be running a straight

462
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 2: up independence in swing states campaign from day one and

463
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 2: doing things like this. No one thinks Joe Biden's gonna

464
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 2: what's Joe Biden's message going to be a message? The

465
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 2: Democrat machine is very transactional, right that. Yeah, there'll be

466
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 2: emotional manipulation.

467
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 3: With January sixth and the insurrection.

468
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 2: But cash payments, cash handouts to people, that's the kind

469
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,719
Speaker 2: of stuff that they do. You know, think about it

470
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 2: like old school Tammany Hall in New York or the

471
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 2: you know, the the Daily Chicago machine. It's you know,

472
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 2: it's coins on the barrel for people, right It's it's

473
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 2: paying them off, it's getting them what they got to get,

474
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 2: it's getting their piece of it. And they're very effective.

475
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,479
Speaker 2: In the same way, they're very effective at creating an

476
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 2: ecosystem that makes people want to be left wing lunatic

477
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 2: activists and media, et cetera. Because or in the government

478
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: or in the deep state, right, you'll get your book deal,

479
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 2: you'll get your board seat, You'll be taken care of.

480
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 2: They figure out what can we do to pay off

481
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 2: the voters just enough that they make the wrong decision

482
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 2: this time around, and something like this, something like you know,

483
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 2: paying off people with student loan debt. It's not huge,

484
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 2: but where are they doing it and how are.

485
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 3: They doing it?

486
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 4: I just speaking of that buck. Did you see who

487
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 4: has a book coming out? I think in October? The

488
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 4: young twenty four year old who testified at the J

489
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 4: and six hearings was a Cassidy Hutchinson.

490
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 3: Was that her name? Oh yeah, she got a book deal.

491
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 3: What in the world.

492
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 4: And I'm not trying to take a shot at her, right,

493
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 4: but she's twenty four years old.

494
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 2: There's no way that book is interesting. There's no way

495
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 2: that book was worth being written. But it just it's

496
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 2: something that people it's the you know, it's something that

497
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 2: people will buy to put on their shelf next to

498
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 2: their other Trump hate books. She got a payoff effectively

499
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 2: through the book deal. And we didn't even talk about this,

500
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,400
Speaker 2: but everybody's focused on You've reading all these articles. Oh,

501
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 2: Justice Clarence Thomas flew on at somebody's private jet he's

502
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 2: friends with this famous billionaire.

503
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 3: Look at these relationships.

504
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 4: Sonia Sotomayor has made almost four million dollars buck off

505
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 4: her Chill's book. You can't tell me that Sonia Sotomayor

506
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 4: is the greatest children's book author of all time.

507
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 3: I can tell you this. Four million dollars nearly.

508
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 4: In book royalties is an insane amount of money to make.

509
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 4: What's going on there, She, based on her political connections,

510
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 4: is getting all these different libraries and all these different

511
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 4: school districts to buy her children's books and put them

512
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,239
Speaker 4: in I bet it's in every school book. I bet

513
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 4: it's in every school library in America right now, because

514
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 4: that's the way she's getting paid off four million dollars.

515
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 2: It's not for a lot of people. It's not public

516
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 2: service anymore, it's self service. Democrats are totally okay with this.

517
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 2: The Clinton's really pioneered it by being incredibly wealthy peddling

518
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 2: influence under the guise of a charity. Now Hunter Biden

519
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 2: is selling his finger paintings, never mind access to his

520
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 2: dad for China, and this is now just considered normal.

521
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 2: So we want to talk about corruption and draining the swamp.

522

Speaker 6: Hey, gentlemen, six time caller on the Rush Show. I'm

556
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 6: even on page three fifty of his book, Jason new

557
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 6: Brofels Texas.

558
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 3: Good for you.

559
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 6: Hey. When I heard y'all, yeah, when I heard y'all

560
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 6: talking about the sexualization of children, all this transgender stuff

561
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 6: which I didn't even hear about ten years ago, I

562
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 6: was thinking about something I'm engaged in right now. I'm

563
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 6: in an online teacher certification program, and instead of complaining

564
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 6: about education, I'm gonna go in and just actually just

565
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 6: teach history, not try to indoctrinate young people. Part of

566
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 6: this program is observing classrooms by videos, and these are

567
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 6: prerecorded videos, and in watching those videos, I can say empirically,

568
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,479
Speaker 6: none of the hundreds of young people that I've witnessed fifth, six,

569
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 6: seven eighth graders are confused about their gender. The boys

570
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 6: are boys and the girls of girls. The only way

571
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 6: they can become confused is by counselors and teachers and

572
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:44,479
Speaker 6: activist parents. This transgender thing is an evil thing that

573
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 6: is being placed upon our children by people who simply

574
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 6: don't want to recognize these Trust the science people that

575
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 6: boys and girls are inherently different, based upon God's design,

576
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 6: not the design of a counselor or a somebody an

577
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 6: academic orson like that. And just as an aside, for

578
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 6: all these people, all these baby saying I'm not going

579
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 6: to vote for Trump because you know he hurt my feelings.

580
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 6: You're voting for this stuff by sitting out.

581
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 3: It's a good point. Thank you for the call. Buck.

582
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 4: Here's what I would say. A lot of people talk

583
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 4: about what's going on in the teaching. I would ask

584
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 4: this question, and I think about it a lot. I'm

585
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 4: fortunate to have three boys who are happy and healthy

586
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 4: right now. But when thirty percent of girls, according to studies,

587
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 4: have thought about committing suicide in the last year. I

588
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 4: was reading that the number of admissions to emergency rooms

589
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 4: for mental health issues skyrocketed during COVID, which is eminently predictable.

590
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 4: You take people out of schools. But why are so

591
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 4: many people uncomfortable in their own bodies? That is like

592
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 4: the essence of a question. Right if you are a

593
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,479
Speaker 4: boy and you feel like you're a girl, or you

594
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 4: are a girl, or and you feel like you are

595
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 4: a boy, the root of that is you are profoundly

596
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 4: uncomfortable in your own skin.

597
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 3: Why is that becoming such a thing. Well, you know,

598
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 3: there's I think the messaging on this is.

599
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 2: From a lot of different angles really bad, and it's

600
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 2: bad for women. It's actually bad for men too, which

601
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 2: we could talk about in a second. But on the

602
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 2: one hand, you have young girls are exposed to not

603
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 2: even just unrealistic expectations of beauty. You know, there was

604
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 2: a Tom Segura does this thing about how he saw

605
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 2: a supermodel in person, and he's like, this is like

606
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 2: a freak of like a freak of nature, like in

607
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 2: the mode, but he's looking at he's saying, and this

608
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 2: is true. You know, a lot of us male, you know,

609
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 2: female whatever, You're never gonna look like Giselle. She won

610
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 2: the genetics lottery. Like that's just reality, right, Naomi Campbell

611
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 2: won the genetics lottery like these supermodels, And that's just

612
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 2: the same way that you know, I was never gonna

613
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 2: be a seven foot four, you know NBA player, who

614
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 2: could you know, dunk with barely jumping point being that

615
00:33:58,280 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 2: there are some realities that we have to deal with

616
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 2: an online though. It's now worse than that because there

617
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 2: are all these people that are changing. There's a tremendous

618
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 2: amount of sort of plastic surgery and body dysmorphia that

619
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 2: comes from that, and there are also is all these

620
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,760
Speaker 2: filters and all these things. So it is a truly

621
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 2: on It's not oh look at this, like one in

622
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 2: a million person is so good looking. People are changing

623
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 2: the way they look. Young girls are exposed to this.

624
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 2: And then on the other side of it, you have

625
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 2: society telling women, you know, be unhealthy fat, yeah, meaning

626
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 2: you know, be give yourself severe body and health issues

627
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 2: in your life as a function of medicine and science.

628
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 3: That's good.

629
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 2: Now, so you have on the one hand, what they're

630
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 2: seeing and what's getting the clicks and the likes is

631
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,240
Speaker 2: more unrealistic than ever. And then there's this other movement

632
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: of you know, the body positivity thing, where it's like, no,

633
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 2: just be healthy, be the best version of who you

634
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 2: are should be the messaging. But that messaging is getting

635
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 2: completely stampeded by bad messaging in both directions, totally fake

636
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 2: perfection and really self degraatory, you know, let it all

637
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 2: go and nothing matters. Like neither of those are good.

638
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would argue that Instagram, which is overwhelmingly

639
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 4: more popular with girls and young girls, a lot of

640
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 4: that is buck. When you and I were growing up

641
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 4: to your point in Tom's point on like you see

642
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 4: a supermodel, there were famous people, but the idea was, oh,

643
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,280
Speaker 4: they're on the cover of Maxim. That is Britney Spears,

644
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 4: that is Jessica Alba, that is Jennifer Love Hewett. Right,

645
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 4: I could run through the list of people who were

646
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 4: famous when we were growing up. They were on the

647
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:37,839
Speaker 4: cover of Maxim, stuff, maybe sometimes Playboy. Now, all these

648
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 4: girls see some girl from their high school who is

649
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 4: getting famous as an influencer, or they see someone who

650
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,359
Speaker 4: is getting famous in college in their sorority.

651
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:49,839
Speaker 3: As an influencer, there.

652
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 4: Are girls I sometimes see these things come across my

653
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 4: feedbuck there are girls random sorority girls with a million

654
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 4: followers on Instagram now, and I think you look at

655
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 4: it and it's closer to you, and it makes you

656
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 4: angrier that you don't have that, and it makes you

657
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 4: more insecure because the proximity of fame is more in

658
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 4: your you know, venue than when you watched and saw

659
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 4: Britney Spears and she was famous, there was a level

660
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 4: of remove and that makes girls, I think, more insecure

661
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 4: because the fame is closer to them.

662
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 2: I put this out there before, and actually I talked

663
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 2: to Liz Willis this week on the podcast and our

664
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:27,839

665
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,560

Speaker 2: women right now? Who's the woman who takes this traditional

668
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 2: perspective on what it means to be a happy, healthy.

669
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,040
