1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: Welcome back in now number three Monday edition Clay Travis 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,479 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. 3 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: We've been having some fun today. Let's hit some news 4 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: off the top as we dive into one of my 5 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 1: favorite topics, evolutionary biology. It actually is something that I 6 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: am fascinated by. Texas redistricting. We have an offer out 7 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: to Texas Governor Greg Abbott. A plan to add five 8 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: Republican seats has led to the Democrats in the state 9 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: legislature of Texas fleeing to Illinois, which is among the 10 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: most jerry manderd of all states. The irony, of course 11 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: off the charts. Two news stories that I think are intriguing. 12 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: Nancy Mace, congresswoman from South Carolina, has announced that she 13 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: will be running for governor of South Carolina. Also, Derek Dooley, 14 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: this is my world's colliding former college football coach, has 15 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: announced that he will be running for the Senate in 16 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: the state of Georgia. This Georgia race is going to 17 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: be necessary to pay a great deal of attention to 18 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: because Republicans have lost three straight Georgia Senate races that really, 19 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: frankly should have been won all of them. Statewide. Republican 20 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: Party has been dominating. Brian Kemp and a company have 21 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: won everything, and not just one. They've won in the 22 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: state of Georgia. Brian Kemp beaten Stacy Abrams in twenty 23 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: twenty two by seven and a half points, So I 24 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: mean it wasn't even a very close race, despite the 25 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: fact that they spent way more money I think Stacy 26 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: Abrams did than Brian Kemp was able to spend in Georgia. 27 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: So my point on this is, if John Ossoff is 28 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: going to be beaten, it's going to take the end 29 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: higher Republican Party, Trump and Brian Kemp coming together and 30 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: working in conjunction in order to win. 31 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 2: That Senate seat. 32 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: Otherwise, Asoff, who doesn't even believe men should be banned 33 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: from competing against women in sports, he is not a 34 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: representative senator for the state of Georgia. Otherwise he's gonna win. 35 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: So this is going to be one to pay attention 36 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: to as that primary season pays out, plays out positive 37 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 1: and we need to get him on Buck. Michael Wattley, 38 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: who did a great job as the head of the 39 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: RNC in the state of North Carolina. Team let's make 40 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: sure we reach out to him, Let's get him on. Basically, 41 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: he is the nominee who is going to be running 42 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: against former Governor Roy Cooper to try to retain that seat. 43 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: There are going to be a lot of battle grounds 44 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: out there, Buck, I'm going up to Michigan in mid 45 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: to late September for their yearly convention, and I am 46 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: speaking to the Michigan Republican Party up at mcadaw Island 47 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: where I actually got engaged to my lovely wife, Laura. 48 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 2: I've heard of me. 49 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: Two years ago. Nice place, nice place here, fabulous. We 50 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 1: got engaged at the Grand Hotel on the grounds there. 51 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: Could barely afford a hotel room there twenty two years ago, 52 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: but it is a very cool place in northern Michigan. 53 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: And that is going to be another battleground because we 54 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: narrowly lost a Senate race in Michigan, we narrowly lost 55 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: a Senate race in Wisconsin, narrowly in Arizona, Georgia is 56 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: going to be on the board, narrowly in Nevada. A 57 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: lot to be done still, So those are news stories 58 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: that are out there to have to be paying attention to. Okay, 59 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: with that in mind, we were talking about do you 60 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: want to do an impression of Trump reading his Sydney 61 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: Sweeney ad. Now that we know it is one hundred 62 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: percent correct, I thought I kind of did. No, Oh, 63 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: did you already officially? Well, I'm thinking there might be 64 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: people in the audience Trump has weighed in. Now we 65 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: played the audio from the airplane Sidney Sweeney. It turns 66 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: out twenty seven year old actress well known, especially if 67 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: you're in your. 68 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 2: Twenties or your thirties. 69 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 1: I would say she is a registered Republican in Florida, 70 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: and she is now getting attacked as the I actually 71 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: think this makes total sense because I texted Buck this 72 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: Saturday morning. When I got up, it was trending that 73 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: people had looked up Sidney Sweeney's voter ID card and 74 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: she had registered as a Republican in the state of Florida. 75 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: It actually makes sense to me why they attacked her 76 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: like they did a lot of times. You don't see everything. 77 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: They see her as a big threat. 78 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,239 Speaker 2: So if you're. 79 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: Getting young women to believe, hey, it's okay to vote Republican, Hey, 80 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: you are not an awful person. 81 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 2: If you turn your back on. 82 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: The Democrat Party, that's a real threat to them because basically, 83 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: if you're a single woman, as Sidney Sweeney is, that 84 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: is the base of the Democrat Party. Now they've lost 85 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: young men, they've lost men. Overall, young women are the 86 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: base of the Democrat Party. And if you have someone 87 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: influential like Sidney Sweeney, who is seen as an aspirational 88 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: figure by many women, if she is saying, hey, I'm 89 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: voting Republican, I'm living in the state of Florida. I 90 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: love the leadership of Ron DeSantis governor. And she made 91 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: the decision to move to Florida in twenty twenty four 92 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: smartly based on the amount of money I assume that 93 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 1: she is making. Not having to pay state income taxes 94 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: doesn't stink if you make the kind of money that 95 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: she does. I think they see her as a huge threat. 96 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: So Trump has weighed in said hey, good for her 97 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: stock price up twenty percent plus today alone. And if 98 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: you're wondering how did all this start, this all started 99 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: on the left when they made an ad for her 100 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: in jeans at a company called American Eagle that yours 101 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: truly used to work at when he was a teenager. 102 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: So I'm very familiar with this brand and did you 103 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: work at Abercrombie as ill I worked at both? Which 104 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: one was better to work at? Abercrombie is higher end, 105 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: meaning the clothes were more expensive. Uh, but as a 106 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: teenage boy, the thing that I cared about the most 107 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 1: was which store had more attractive girls shopping there on 108 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: a regular basis. Rivergate Mall American Eagle was heaven, I said, 109 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: I Buck, I don't know if you ever had a 110 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: job where you made no money, but you were like, 111 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: this is so much fun. 112 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 3: Uh, And I know we coaching coaching JV high school 113 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 3: soccer would definitely be the I maan die. 114 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: You get paid only what did? What did you get 115 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: paid to coach JV soccer? I think for the season 116 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: it was like three grand or something. Yeah, like basically 117 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,559 Speaker 1: nothing like below minimum wage. Yeah, oh definitely, yeah yeah, 118 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: But you loved it. You just loved coaching it. It 119 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: was like fun, super fun. I mean, maybe maybe we 120 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: were eleven one and one. 121 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 3: Maybe it was the best team that that high school 122 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,119 Speaker 3: had put out at the JV level in like twenty years. 123 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know who's counting play. 124 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: So my job that I would point to, I love 125 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: the jobs that we have now but we're adults. You've coached, right, Oh, yeah, 126 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: I've coached every sport. Yeah, because my boys played everything. 127 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: So I have coached basketball, I've coached baseball, I've coached soccer. 128 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: I've coached versions of those sports, right, like flag football. 129 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: The dad's ever a little sheepish about giving you advice 130 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: on the sports stuff because you know you do the 131 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: sports stuff or no, they just like. 132 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 2: My boys should be, you know, playing third base, Like 133 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: what are you doing? 134 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: To be fair, I've never had an issue. I'm probably 135 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: the you know, I'm the one who's gotten in trouble 136 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: for going after refs sometimes. I've never had a pan, 137 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: so I may be the troublemaker. I've never in any 138 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: of the coaching that we did. I don't think we've 139 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: ever had a bad parent, and I think that actually 140 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: is representative generally of the case. 141 00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: Now. 142 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: I do think you coach and the kids get older, 143 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: there's probably more, sadly parental involvement sometimes because it gets 144 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: more serious when you're fourteen, fifteen, sixteen year olds and 145 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: your kids are not maybe not getting on the field 146 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: and you think they should. I never had an issue 147 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: with a kid either, I mean all the kids that 148 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: we coached I thought were great, all the parents were. 149 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: I think that's probably representative of what most coaches find 150 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: out there. But yeah, I've coached basically every sport on 151 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: some level, not in super high end ability. But the 152 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: reason why I bring kind of all of this up 153 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: as we sort of cycle around is I got paid 154 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: four dollars and fifty cents an hour I worked at 155 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,559 Speaker 1: American Eagle, so I have sold a lot of American 156 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: Eagle clothes over the years. 157 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 2: I loved that job. It was amazing. 158 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: And I go get Chick fil A for lunch, or 159 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: Petros or Pyramid Cafe at the Rivergate Mall in Goodletsville, 160 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: which I don't even hardly think is still open. Great 161 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: job for a teenager to have. So I know this 162 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: brand well, I know this company well. And the attacks 163 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 1: on Sidney Sweeney came out of the left, and they 164 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: came so aggressively that when I saw on Saturday, oh 165 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: she's a registered Republican, they basically ordered the code red 166 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: on her. I don't think it's coincidental. I think they 167 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: knew about this, and this is what Good Morning America said. 168 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: Some people are like, oh, this is not a story. 169 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: I don't know why this is getting so much tension. 170 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: It's what you saw if you're eating your breakfast. Last 171 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: week on Good Morning America. 172 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 4: We begin with the backlash of our new ad campaign 173 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 4: featuring actress Sidney Sweeney. 174 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 5: The ads are for American Eagle and the tagline is 175 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 5: Sidney Sweeney has Great Genes Now. In one ad, the blondehair, 176 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 5: blue eyed actress talks about genes as in DNA, being 177 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 5: passed down from her parents. 178 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:44,599 Speaker 1: The play on words is being compared to Nazi propaganda 179 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: with racial undertones. 180 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 4: The coun good Genes activates a troubling historical associations for 181 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 4: this country. The American eugenics movement and it's prime between 182 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 4: like nineteen hundred and nineteen, weaponized the idea of good 183 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 4: genes just to justify white supremacism. 184 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 3: I don't think she's fun at cocktail parties. I'm just 185 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 3: gonna throw that out there, like I don't think that 186 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,239 Speaker 3: lady whoever she is a barrel of laughs. 187 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: I just I hear about this, and they created this 188 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: entire backlash. 189 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 2: I saw. 190 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,319 Speaker 1: A report and I want to make sure I give 191 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: her credit for this. So I want to make sure 192 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: I got who did the one of the Savannah Hernandez 193 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: went to a women's rally and interviewed all these left 194 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: wing women and they just went off on Sidney Sweeney 195 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 1: in this ad. 196 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 2: So I think the. 197 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 1: Argument that people are not actually because this is one 198 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: of the things you'll hear, well, this is not really 199 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: a thing. It's not really that made up or it's 200 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: made up, it's not a real thing. Now that they 201 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: have turned this into a cultural battleground, and we'll take 202 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: some of your calls, and we'll take some of your talkbacks, 203 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: because we have a ton of them. Telling young men 204 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: that Sidney Sweeney is a Nazi is ensuring that no 205 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: young men are ever going to vote for you if 206 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: they are heterosexual at all. I'm just saying, and I 207 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: think increasingly young women are looking around and saying, wait 208 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: a minute, if we're the backbone of the Democrat party, 209 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: why would we attack young women like Sidney Sweeney, who 210 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: really it's not as if she's done things in her past, 211 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: meaning she's not a felon, she's not engaged in some 212 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: sort of crazy, awful behavior. She just did an ad 213 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: for a jeens company, and my mom just texted me 214 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: because she's walking around the mall near our house now 215 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: and they have huge billboard pictures inside of the American 216 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: Eagle store with Sidney Sweeney there, and the stock price 217 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: is up over twenty percent today. And I think there's 218 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: people out there listening to us right now who are 219 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: saying it's back to school season.

I'm sometimes buy my amazing 333 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: looking jackets, which are extraordinary well received on television by all. 334 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 2: But by and large, I don't hardly buy anything. 335 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: It amazes me how good of a delivery system Amazon 336 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: has created, such that I wonder how much we actually 337 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: need the traditional mail to be fair. 338 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 2: But I do have to tell you. 339 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: If you are out there right now and you're listening 340 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: to us, and you are trying to mediate fights between 341 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: your kids and your grandkids, which almost every single parent 342 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: and grandparent has tried to do at some point in time, 343 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: have you thought about what might happen when you're not 344 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: there to stop them from fighting. Have you thought about 345 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: how you not being there might even increase the amount 346 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: of fighting that actually goes on.

We 357 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 1: appreciate all of you hanging out with us as we 358 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 1: are powering through the Monday edition of the program. Have 359 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: all of you had awesome weekends? Uh, and are ready to. 360 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 2: Roll with us again? 361 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: A bunch of you wanted to weigh in on a 362 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: variety of different topics. Uh, let's start James up in Louisville. 363 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: What you got for us? 364 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 10: James Hey claim Buck the beauty Bucks said that the 365 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 10: beauty is in the out of the holder, but it's 366 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 10: really not. There's an objective standard for it and it 367 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 10: goes way back. 368 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: Hold on, I was I was kidding. Just pause, he was, yeah, 369 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: he was having it was a joke going yes. 370 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 10: Of course, of course, but I was just playing off 371 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 10: of it. Beauty actually does have a standard, and there 372 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 10: is an objective mathematical formula one plus the square of 373 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 10: five five all over two and it's called the Golden 374 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 10: ratio and the number is one point six one eight 375 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 10: to one. It's a It's been used in nature. You'll 376 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 10: find it all over nature. 377 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 3: Well, I can tell you every time I've gone up 378 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 3: to a lady in a bar when I was singing 379 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 3: and I said, hey, you're really nailing the golden ratio 380 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 3: over here. 381 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: I did not get a phone number. It's very sad 382 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 2: for me. 383 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: But to be fair, and again this goes to my 384 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: evolutionary biology thing which I'm fascinated by. This is basically 385 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: the Vitruvian man. 386 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 2: Right. 387 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: So if you go and look at symmetry as a 388 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: sign of beauty objectively, it's Leonardo right who drew the 389 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: Vitruvian man. If you go back and look the circle 390 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: with the arms extended and the legs extended, it is 391 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: in many ways a reflective of the golden ratio, which 392 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: is what he just referred to, and it is often 393 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 1: a sign of natural beauty being observed. And this is 394 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: where I think evolutionary biology is so interesting, and I've 395 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: read all about it because I'm always of the opinion, 396 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: why does something that exists exist? And you sit back 397 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: and you think about it. I'll give you an example 398 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: why would men be able to have children their entire 399 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: lives and women would not. Pure Again, I'm not trying 400 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: to get into analyzing this, I'm just saying purely, from 401 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: a biological perspective, the general goal of a species is 402 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: almost entirely propagation. That is your job, my job, everybody's job, 403 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: from a biological perspective, is to lead to more of 404 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: us in the future. And the answer is, I think 405 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: quite simply. If you think about it, men who are 406 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: older tend to be prominent and or wealthier, and younger 407 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: women see that and in their mind biologically they think, 408 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: my children are going to have advantages in the caves. 409 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: That meant that your kids were more likely to survive. 410 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: There was going to be more food, there was going 411 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: to be more opportunity for that child to flourish. Therefore, 412 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,959 Speaker 1: older men continued to be able to have children. Older 413 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: women did not. Also, obviously, the physical aspects of childbirth 414 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,679 Speaker 1: and delivery were very dangerous historically, and so it was 415 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: better for youth to be able to be delivering a child. 416 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 8: Right. 417 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 2: It makes total sense. There is studies out there. Why do. 418 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: Good looking couples, as you objectively standardize it, tend to 419 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,679 Speaker 1: have more daughters. Why would that be Because beauty is 420 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 1: more valuable for women than it is for men. Not 421 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: to say that they are not incredibly handsome men, but 422 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: beauty is more valuable biologically for women than it is 423 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: for men. Height is more valuable biologically for men than 424 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: it is for women. 425 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 2: Like, all of this makes. 426 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:50,479 Speaker 1: Sense purely from an evolutionary biology perspective. And when they 427 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 1: try to argue against all of these things, that is 428 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: where I sit back and I just say, I mean, 429 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 1: athletics is a good example of this. There's a reason 430 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 1: we separated men women at lex throughout history. 431 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 2: Yep, yep. Tom and Tom and Mobile Alabama? What's going on? 432 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 6: Tom? 433 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 2: You want to talk redistricting? Oh? There we go? 434 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 6: All right. I'm sorry, I'm in a. 435 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 11: Mobile, Alabama area, and I wanted to talk about the 436 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 11: hypocrisy of calling what's going on in Texas racist because 437 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,959 Speaker 11: I'm in what is now Alabama's congressional District two, and 438 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 11: the district itself, I wasn't one. And the reason I'm now. 439 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 6: In two is because they specifically and explicitly created District 440 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 6: two to make sure that a certain racial group could 441 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 6: elect their own over anything else. 442 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:43,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 443 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 1: Look, I mean racial jerrymander has become a thing. They're 444 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: actually going to have a Supreme Court opinion on this 445 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: very issue, which may end racial jerrymandering as well. And 446 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: this is where Buck we were talking about in Texas. 447 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: One of the most interesting parts of the Texas redistricting 448 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: is actually there are some majority minority districts with Hispanics 449 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: that would be electing Republicans. And as soon as there 450 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 1: is no racial dynamic in Hispanic voting, Asian voting, whatever 451 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: it would be, then your ability to racially jerrymander is 452 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: going to be tossed on the scrap heap. I think 453 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: there's a chance that they examined this and toss it 454 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: away sooner rather than later in this Supreme Court decision 455 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: that they're going to be analyzing hearing oral arguments for 456 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: in October, and it's not getting a lot of attention yet, 457 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: but I think it could very much. 458 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 2: Anyone else on the lines there. 459 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: We needed to get to Ray Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. 460 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 2: There we go. 461 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 7: Yes, hey, Fellas, I love your show. 462 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 8: Rush say me in nineteen eighty from drinking that kool 463 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 8: leg But in Pennsylvania where I've lived when they came 464 00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 8: and did the census. 465 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 7: I put down as a Christian American and they came 466 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 7: back and they told me, being a black America, I 467 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 7: have to choose what race. I said, why can I 468 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 7: just be a Black? Why can I be an American Christian? 469 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 8: These people are. 470 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 7: Full of cramp in America. But I love your show. 471 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 7: Keep doing what she's doing. I'm miss rushed, but I 472 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 7: love you guys too. 473 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: Thank you. We appreciate that very much. Thank you so much. 474 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: And again, I think one of the most encouraging things 475 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: about the entirety of Trump's twenty twenty four election. It's 476 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: actually the most diverse coalition ever to vote in terms 477 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: of Black, White, Asian, Hispanic race. It was really kind 478 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: of fascinating. Again, has not gotten very much attention. The 479 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 1: only group really that Kamala did better with in the 480 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four election than Biden did white women. She 481 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: increased white women's support a little bit lost support in 482 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: basically every other racial group out there, which is how 483 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: Trump has built a pretty interesting diverse racial coalition Historically. 484 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: On Mom, Donnie, this is gonna come down to Buck. 485 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: We have talked about it a great deal. It is 486 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 1: one of the most important elections of this fall. Is 487 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 1: there going to be an ability to find one guy 488 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: to run against him? Curtis Leewa, Eric Adams and Andrew 489 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: Cuomo all in the race right now. As long as 490 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,719 Speaker 1: all three are in, mam Donnie's gonna win. I mean, 491 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,120 Speaker 1: came back, Donni wins. I think Ma'm Donnie wins probably 492 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,640 Speaker 1: no matter what. Unfortunately, I'm sorry to say it, New York. 493 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. It actually pains me. Clay is being is 494 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 3: being nice about it today, but it pains me to 495 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 3: say this. I think Ma'm Donnie is probably gonna be 496 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 3: your next mayor.
