1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us.

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 2: Buck.

4
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 1: I saw an interesting story over the weekend and it

5
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: ties in with the story that I'm going to talk

6
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: about here shortly, and it is we talked about positive

7
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: the economy, great deal with the EU that appears to

8
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: be in place. Trump is over in Scotland right now.

9
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: I think he's still there. There has been, and he's

10
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: been meeting with the Prime Minister of Britain.

11
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 2: All of that going on.

12
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: Stock market again today hitting an all time high, or

13
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 1: at least it was up a bit, but basically stocks

14
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: at all time highs. Economy things are going very very well.

15
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: Feels like the first six months of the Trump administration.

16
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,279
Speaker 1: Now with the tax cuts embedded and with many of

17
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: the trade deals in place, that we're really prepared to

18
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: really kind of go on a next level splurge in growth,

19
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: particularly when the FED, and I say win the FED

20
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: inevitably finally gets around to agreeing to cut interest rates.

21
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 1: That's going to just add on more gas. We've talked

22
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: about the fact that the border is completely secure, more

23
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: so than it has ever been in the life of

24
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: anyone that is out there listening to us right now.

25
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 1: But also crime big article in I believe it was

26
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal over the weekend saying that we

27
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: are maybe in the New York Times one or the other,

28
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: that we are headed for potentially twenty first century crime lows.

29
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 2: And they were.

30
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: Saying, boy, we can't even figure out what's going on.

31
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: And they said, this is especially unbelievable because there's way

32
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: more guns now than have ever existed in the history

33
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: of the United States. This was one of the lines

34
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: in the article where liberals were trying to I think

35
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: it was a New York Times come to grips with

36
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: why violent crime notwithstanding the story we just told you

37
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati, why violent crime is declining precipitously all over

38
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: the country in many different cities, will police are able

39
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 1: to do their jobs? But the article actually said, but

40
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 1: there's way more guns on the street than ever before.

41
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: It's not guns on the street that is the issue.

42
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 1: It's guns on the street in the hands of bad guys.

43
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: Guns on the street in the hands of good guys

44
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: can actually make us significantly safer. And there was an

45
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 1: awful story that happened over the weekend, and I was

46
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: thinking about it because I just was up in Traverse City, Michigan,

47
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 1: and I know many of you out there are traveling

48
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: northern Michigan. It's beautiful in the summer, and I appreciate

49
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: again the guys who had me up there for several days.

50
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: My wife's from Michigan. But this guy deserves a great

51
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: deal of credit. There was an awful story. Guy went

52
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,080
Speaker 1: into a Walmart and just it sounds like is a

53
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: psychologically unstable, insane person that had been known to authorities

54
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: up there quite a long time. I believe, stabbed eleven

55
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: people in a Traverse City, Michigan area walmart and then

56
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:21,239
Speaker 1: in the outside in the parking lot. The stabbing suspect

57
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 1: was restrained by several people in the parking lot, including

58
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: a guy named Derek Perry, who is a former marine.

59
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: I know marines out there say they're never a former marine,

60
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: but was in the Armed Services, and he had a

61
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: gun on him, and he pulled that gun out and

62
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: restrained this crazy person ended the attacks. And we don't

63
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 1: know what motivation this crazy person was acting under, but

64
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: I do think that people like this who are heroes

65
00:03:53,960 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: and stop evildoers perpetrators of violence, deserve to become famous

66
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: in a way that the serial attacker who desires fame

67
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: does not. We try to avoid sharing those people's names.

68
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: But on the flip side, this is an example of

69
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: somebody who saw violent act happening. We were saying in Cincinnati,

70
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: most people weren't doing anything. Here in Traverse City, this guy,

71
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: Derek Perry, pulled out his gun and stopped this attack

72
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: from continuing. And I do think we can spend a

73
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: little bit of time here saying hey, we're letting police

74
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: do their jobs again, and also good citizens out there.

75
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: There does seem to be a positive momentum overall in

76
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: declining the amount of violent crime that is occurring all

77
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: over the country.

78
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 2: Everybody is safer when a good citizen has a firearm,

79
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 2: who knows how to use it, who was a lawful carrier.

80
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 2: This is an I appendix carry sometimes down here in Miami.

81
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: I should do it really all the time, but it's

82
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: tough because there's not a lot of room to I'm

83
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 2: just being honest, not a lot of room to conceal carry.

84
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 2: So this is why my my brother You see my

85
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 2: brother Mason, and he's got a fanny pack on. He's

86
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 2: not carrying lip gloss and the fanny pack that I

87
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: could tell you. You know, there's a very good way

88
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: to conceal carry down here. Uh so, or I'm not

89
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 2: lip class, you know what I mean. I mean chapstick,

90
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 2: lip closs, if yellow, other kind of thing.

91
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 1: It's Miami, it's Miami. There's not there's anything wrong with that,

92
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: you know, not that I'm just saying it's different kind

93
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: of stuff.

94
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 2: But yeah, concealed carry in a fanny, fanny pack, fanny pouch,

95
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it. I think there's different

96
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 2: names for it's a very good way to do it.

97
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 2: My point merely being that everyone around you is safer

98
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 2: when a good, law abiding citizen is carrying. And we

99
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 2: see this play out over and over and over again.

100
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: So much of the objection to firearms from the left

101
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 2: and the Democrats is really just it's actually philosophical. It

102
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 2: has almost nothing to do with crime. Uh there's a

103
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 2: cultural level and a political philosophical level. The left opposes

104
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 2: citizens being armed because culturally they think of guns as

105
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 2: belonging to the bad people, not the bad people. Bad people, right,

106
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 2: the bad people might be criminals, No no, no, I mean

107
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 2: bad people like they don't like them Trump voters, people

108
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 2: that are proud to be in red states. People that

109
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 2: don't agree with them on abortion or don't agree with

110
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 2: them on immigration tend to have guns. Right, So there's

111
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: just this culture it's just a culture war issue. If

112
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 2: somebody sits down with me, Clay and they say, oh, hey,

113
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 2: I saw a video of you, you and your brothers

114
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 2: roll out at the range last week, and that's awesome,

115
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 2: I'd I'd love to come sometime. The chance that I'm

116
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 2: going to agree with them on a whole lot of

117
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 2: other things in life is like ninety five percent, but

118
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: it's very high, it's not one hundred percent. So that

119
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 2: on one level, on one level, that that's an issue,

120
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 2: or that's how that the issue goes. And then in

121
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,119
Speaker 2: a political philosophical issue, I mean, every fire arm in

122
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 2: an individual citizens' hands is a reminder to the state

123
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 2: that there's a little personal act of rebellion going on here,

124
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 2: like there is a line at which the state cannot

125
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 2: and shall not cross. And that's a very foundational philosophical difference.

126
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 2: The left, Democrats, socialists, they want the state to be

127
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 2: able to just flip a switch as we saw during

128
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 2: COVID and have absolute and total control over you to

129
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 2: include life and death. They want that control and power

130
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 2: over you. And when you have an armed populist, when

131
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 2: you have an armed citizenry, that's a very different calculation.

132
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: I thought you would appreciate this too. It was the

133
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: New York Times which explains this being the headline. After

134
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: surge during pandemic, homicides fall significantly. What they have tried

135
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: to do is not connect the BLM anti police movement

136
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: with the surgeon crome, because, as we point out on

137
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: this show, the surgeon crime didn't happen until May of

138
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, when suddenly every cop was a bad guy.

139
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: They couldn't even put cops on television shows, and we

140
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: started hearing, hey, maybe we should replace the police with

141
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: domestic you know, domestic workers or whatever it is. The

142
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: social workers, domestic violence scenes don't need police officers. So

143
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: they're still trying to say, oh, this all happened because

144
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 1: of COVID, but now homicides are coming back massively, and

145
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: I think it's quite clearly because cops are able to

146
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: do their jobs again. And again, this is not a

147
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: one hundred percent representative survey, but this year, for instance,

148
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: Chicago's murder rate is down thirty three percent compared to

149
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: last year, Saint Louis twenty two percent, Baltimore twenty four percent,

150
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: Denver down forty percent. And these things are happening in

151
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: most cities nationwide now. And I just think it's interesting

152
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: because the talk had been, oh, police are awful, police

153
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: are awful, and as soon as you let police start

154
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: to do their jobs again, then oh, my goodness, guess

155
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: what happens. And so anyway, I do think that's yet

156
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: another positive that isn't getting very much attention. I don't

157
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: think it's coincidental that Trump has come into office that

158
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 1: he has said, Hey, cops, let's get bad guys off

159
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: the street, let's keep violent perpetrators behind bars, and let's

160
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: get all these illegal Did you see the stat I

161
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: think it got CBS dunked on. There was report, Hey,

162
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: Trump has only deported seven hundred and something murders, and

163
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: people are like, only murder's pretty rare. Like if you

164
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: can kick seven hundred illegals who are guilty of murder

165
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: out of the country, the violent crime rates can start

166
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: to improve. Now they're still too high all of those things.

167
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: But I did think, again, economy, border crime, when you

168
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 1: look at the data. I don't know that very many

169
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: people are talking about this. I think the FBI deserves credit.

170
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: I think the Trump administration deserves credit. If twenty twenty five,

171
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: if we are going to set potentially twenty first century

172
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 1: lows and murder, that's a very good thing. And I

173
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 1: think it's largely because police are being able to do

174
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 1: their jobs. And I think also guys like Derek Perry

175
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: who have weapons and see bad things happening and decide, hey,

176
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: I'm going to stop this, they deserve credit for helping

177
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: to create a culture that is the opposite of the

178
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: culture of hey, let me just get my phone and

179
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: take a video of a random guy committing an act

180
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: of violence.

181
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 2: That's what I'm going to do. I'm not going to

182
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 2: try to stop it in any way. Yes, Well, again,

183
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 2: the way the media covers this is always aligned with

184
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: their ideological position against guns, so they try to downpla

185
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 2: the fact that there are so many instances of defensive

186
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 2: or even good Samaritan firearms. Use firearms, you know, sometimes

187
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 2: you don't even have to shoot, you just have to

188
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 2: have the gun, right, you can hold the gun on somebody,

189
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 2: you can, you know, prevent the shooting or the stabbing

190
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 2: from continuing. So it's the evidence on this is very clear.

191
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: But that's why clay I mentioned the philosophical points. It's

192
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: not about what the crime numbers are because there's no

193
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 2: argument to be made. Gang bangers don't care how much

194
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 2: you hate gun. They're gonna find a way to get guns.

195
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 2: There's hundreds of millions of guns in circulation this country.

196
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 2: They're gonna have guns no matter what. You're not stopping

197
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: the gang members by saying we're gonna.

198
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 3: Make it extra super special illegal. If you get a

199
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 3: gun now, we're gonna limit your magazines. We're gonna get

200
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 3: rid of ar fifteens that have scary appendages on them

201
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 3: or you know that have That is that is about

202
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 3: gun lawful gun owners sticking your thumb in their eye

203
00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 3: as the kamis.

204
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 2: That is what. It has nothing to do with actually

205
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 2: limiting crime, because it never works. If it was about that,

206
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 2: Eventually they would recognize that their policies or failures it

207
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 2: Once you understand that the opposition to guns is not

208
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 2: about it's not about gun violence, it's not about gun

209
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 2: crime unless you're just a complete ignoramis it works with

210
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 2: the ignoramises. But the people that actually understand this argument

211
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 2: and know the numbers will tell you, oh, no, those

212
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 2: who are running these places, these different NGOs, and you

213
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 2: know the Democrat apparatus that is trying to constantly pass

214
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 2: more gun laws, as if we don't have enough gun laws.

215
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 2: It's always about I don't like the people who own guns,

216
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,839
Speaker 2: and I want the state to have more control. It's

217
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 2: so it's a philosophical thing. They use the crime thing

218
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 2: as a as a as a means of mobilizing the

219
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 2: gun grabbers out there. So I just I have no

220
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 2: tolerance for it. I find it the people it's out

221
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 2: also an issue, by the way, where the the Democrat

222
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 2: media doesn't feel that the least been embarrassed for knowing

223
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 2: absolutely nothing. This is where the chainsaw bayonet thing came.

224
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: Remember that on USA today, have you seen this AR

225
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: fifteen could be fitted with a chainsaw bayonet. And then,

226
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 2: of course chainsaw bayonets totally sold out because it's such

227
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 2: a fun novelty item, like no one, no one's breaking

228
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: into a liquor store, like give me all your money

229
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 2: or I'll get you with my chainsaw bayonet. But they're

230
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 2: they're idiots on the subject. They don't care because it's

231
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 2: about they don't like the people that have the guns,

232
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 2: and so that's I always try to explain this to

233
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 2: people in that way, so then then it all makes sense.

234
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 2: Then you get that Clay and I can sit here

235
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 2: all day and talk about the good guys with guns

236
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 2: and all the good things that happened from a society

237
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 2: with law abiding gun owners. They don't care. They want

238
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 2: to control you. It's a means of control, and they

239
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 2: want to separate people based on whether they support guns

240
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 2: or not. So the gun people are bad people. That's it.

241
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: That's as simple as it is for them. Everything else

242
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 2: is just noise and make believe with the statistics. Let's

243
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 2: talk about saving lives another way. Preborn. Preborn is doing

244
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:59,080
Speaker 2: incredible work day in and day out. Their individual actions

245
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 2: as an organization led to sixty seven thousand children being

246
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 2: brought into this world last year alone. The team operating

247
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 2: the Preborn clinics nationwide provide pregnant mothers with support and

248
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 2: assistance as they choose life for their precious unborn baby.

249
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 2: And the way that Preborn starts this process off is

250
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 2: by providing the gift of an ultrasound. It's not a

251
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 2: trick or a gimmick, most honest and vulnerable experience they

252
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: can provide at no cost. That free ultrasound lets that

253
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 2: mom meet her unborn child in the womb. Here the heartbeat,

254
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 2: see the tiny movements within her, and so often that's

255
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 2: the turning point that mine realizes I have to give

256
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: life to this child. This is my baby. But they

257
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 2: need your help. Preborn needs your help to be able

258
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: to do this. Twenty eight dollars per ultrasound is the expense.

259
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 2: They have twenty eight dollars and they can bring in

260
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 2: a mom and give her that free ultrasound. Preborn operates

261
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: these clinics nationwide in places where abortion rates are highest,

262
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 2: so they can be on the front lines and save

263
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: as many babies as possible. So please consider a donation today,

264
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 2: and honestly, if you can doing monthly recurrent donation, you

265
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: can set it up easily at the website. Monthly recurring

266
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 2: donation of twenty eight dollars would mean so much. Every

267
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 2: month you would be providing that ultrasound to a mom

268
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 2: who is making that critical decision. Go to preborn dot

00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 2: Continued whining. In the aftermath of the Colbert Late Show,

278
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 2: Uh cancelation this time coming from smuglib whom I've known

279
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 2: all along was a smuglib. Some people kind of liked him,

280
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 2: some people thought he was funny, but some of us

281
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 2: thought David Letterman was a smuglib. Here he is.

282
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

283
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 2: I know you can think I create the talent without

284
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 2: agreeing with the without agree with the politics. But here

285
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 2: is David Letterman weighing on the Colbert cancelation. Play twenty

286
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 2: four This secure cowardice.

287
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 6: I mean, you're telling me sixty minutes the pinnacle of

288
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 6: journalistic excellence and integrity for decades, and many of those

289
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 6: decades the number one viewed show in America. They've they've

290
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 6: decided we're sorry. He let us give you twenty million

291
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 6: dollars and we'll be more careful. I believe this isn't

292
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 6: the wake of that. I think this one day, if

293
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 6: not today, the people at CBS who have manipulated and

294
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 6: handled handled this are going to be embarrassed because this

295
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 6: is this is gutlass.

296
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: Is this a business or a charity that they're running

297
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: over on these places? This is well gutless. How they're

298
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 2: just supposed to keep losing money, Clay, this is it.

299
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 2: It's to see how the the Libs think about media. Well.

300
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: I think the perfect response to this is south Park

301
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: Savage Trump in their first episode of their new season.

302
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 1: South Park got a one point five billion or one

303
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: point two five billion dollar multi year extension because they

304
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: make a ton of money. It all comes down to, look,

305
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: CBS News would have, in paramount, would have continued to

306
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 1: pay Stephen Colbert a ton of money forever if he

307
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 1: made them forty million dollars a year.

308
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 2: That's the reality.

309
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: This is just a dollars and cents decision and the idea. Look,

310
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert can start his own podcast, he can do

311
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,719
Speaker 1: a YouTube channel, he can do a radio show, he

312
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 1: can share all the opinions he wants under the sun.

313
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: But at some point, if he doesn't own the company.

314
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 1: He's got to make money for the company.

315
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,320

320
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,119

Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay, Travis, Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all

334
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us as we are rolling

335
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 1: through the Monday edition of the program Friday, I think

336
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: we talked about this major cultural shift that has occurred

337
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: where the idea that hey, I'm gonna put I know,

338
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: we talked about this someonhe it was happening because it

339
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 1: was so crazy, but the idea that, for instance, Nike

340
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: was going to put a man who's pretending to be

341
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: a woman in a sports bra and be like, you

342
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: should go buy Nikes, and all of us kind of

343
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: looked around, like this is crazy. And then the thing

344
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: that really got popular was hey, really obese people in spandex, Like, hey,

345
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 1: you should wear spandex and be really happy with your

346
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: body even if you were three hundred pounds.

347
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 2: It was like, well, I don't know how I feel

348
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 2: about all this.

349
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 1: There's really a revolution, I would say against those ads

350
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 1: because buy and Marge they didn't work. And I talked

351
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,879
Speaker 1: about this on Friday Buck. One of the best jobs

352
00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,680
Speaker 1: I ever had, maybe the most fun job I ever had,

353
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: was making four dollars and fifty cents an hour working

354
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: at the American Eagle Rivergate Mall Goodlettsville, Tennessee when I

355
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: was in high school. And American Eagle stock has been

356
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: not good for much of the last five years, and

357
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 1: I went back and looked at it. It's a very

358
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: popular retail chain, and they decided, hey, we've got to

359
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: change our overall mojo and they said, we're going to

360
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:30,959
Speaker 1: hire Sidney Sweeney. And Sidney Sweeney is now doing ads

361
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: for American Eagle that I think it's fair to say

362
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: are sexy in nature, and in general it's going to

363
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: shock some of you.

364
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 2: I think, how do you say it? It is fair

365
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 2: to say it is a little sexy for Sydney Sweeney.

366
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, well, some people don't know who Sidney Sweeney is,

367
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 1: but and I understand that in the audience. But the

368
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: idea being that in general she's Buxom Buxom would be

369
00:20:55,840 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 1: Buxhom last, Buxom last for sure. That in general, one

370
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 1: way that products sell themselves is by putting pretty girls

371
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: in the product and deciding that people will want to

372
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: buy products that pretty girls are trying to sell.

373
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,360
Speaker 2: And this has been a trend for a very very

374
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 2: long time.

375
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: And so this ad is up and what I would

376
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 1: call is the sort of fat, noseringed, pink haired contingent

377
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 1: of the world out there is angry that brands are

378
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: going back to good looking girls, and this has gone viral.

379
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: One of these left wingers, I want to play this

380
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: for you, Buck says that the American Eagle ad of

381
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: Sydney Sweeney is Nazi propaganda.

382
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 7: Listen, should we be surprised that a company whose name

383
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 7: is literally American Eagle is making fascist propaganda like this?

384
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 7: Probably not, but it's still really shocking. Like a blonde haired, blue,

385
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 7: two eyed white woman is talking about her good gens

386
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 7: like that is Nazi propaganda.

387
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: Nazi propaganda. Not a cute girl in jeans talking about

388
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 1: her good jeens is Nazi propaganda, according to the left. Now,

389
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 1: I mentioned this, I think on Friday Book. I don't

390
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 1: know how you've ever been influenced by advertising involving attractive women.

391
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: I think the most direct result ever. And my wife

392
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: still makes fun of me about this. I watched the

393
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: Victorious Secret Fashion Calendar Show or whatever that thing's called.

394
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: They do like a Christmas spectacus, I've heard they do

395
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: like a Christmas spectacular, bunch of girls in lingerie. I

396
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,439
Speaker 1: watched it, went out, bought like two hundred dollars in

397
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: lingerie for my wife maybe the next day. I mean,

398
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: I just went and bought everything and I was like,

399
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: I'm a stooge, but this worked on me. I'm gonna

400
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,479
Speaker 1: go get everything boom, bring it back all right. So

401
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: I can't speak for all men, but in general, I

402
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: would say that men are influenced by attractive women trying

403
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 1: to get them to buy things. But Nazi propaganda and

404
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 1: the question I asked, and I would love to know

405
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: a lot of this. Are the same people who were

406
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: putting fat women into spandex and saying like, you're healthy,

407
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,199
Speaker 1: even though obviously if you're super obese you're not healthy,

408
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: like you should lose weight. Are those the same people

409
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: do you think making the ads now and they just

410
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 1: recognize that the cultural wins have shifted, or do you

411
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: think these companies fired the people who did such an

412
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: awful job doing I mean, Victoria's Secret's a perfect example

413
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: of this. They were like, we're gonna do away with

414
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: supermodels and just put our product on regular people. And

415
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: people are like, this is not you know, like I

416
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: don't want to know what I'm going to look like.

417
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: I want to pretend that I'm gonna way better, Like

418
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 1: I don't buy I don't buy a bathing suit and think, oh,

419
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to look as good as the guy who's

420
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: in the bathing suit ad. But I definitely don't want

421
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: to look like nobody's going to buy an ad if

422
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm in the bathings I'm in the bathing suit ad Like.

423
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 2: This is not a way to sell products. I think

424
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,919
Speaker 2: that the people who were doing the ads before in

425
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: many cases are the ones who now have shifted with

426
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 2: the wind. That would be my just same people.

427
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: They just completely they've made principles like the Yeah, I

428
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: mean you see this with a lot of people in

429
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: the in the corporate on the corporate side of things,

430
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: they just whichever way the wind is blowing is how

431
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 1: they're going to as how they're going to go.

432
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 2: And I think that this was pretty inevitable. There is

433
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 2: a part of this as well that maybe doesn't get

434
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 2: as much attention or focus, but the whole body positivity thing. Yeah,

435
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 2: as people become more and more health focused, and I

436
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 2: really mean that in the broadest term health focus, but

437
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 2: learn more about this stuff, and also as the tool

438
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 2: to improve your health dramatically, not to wait until you're sick,

439
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 2: not to you know, this is not about you know,

440
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 2: the thing you take when you already have the condition,

441
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 2: so much as its ways to get yourself into a

442
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 2: better day to day health and have more energy and

443
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 2: all this, and the most notable one is the GLP ones.

444
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 2: I mean, this is a revolution in health. I know

445
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 2: lots of people who have taken them with you know,

446
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 2: I'm not doing an ad for them right now, but

447
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 2: with incredible results. I am personally a believer in peptides

448
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 2: for the future, for longevity for a whole rate. Now

449
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 2: peptides a branch chan amino acid. That's a whole range

450
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 2: of things. But this whole range, what I'm saying is

451
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 2: the idea that you could be morbidly obese and should

452
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 2: be proud of. That is very similar to the idea

453
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 2: that you could be so anorexic that your you know,

454
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 2: your central nervous system could shut down and people would

455
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 2: be like, oh, yeah, look at how skinny you are. Right,

456
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 2: I mean this, it's deeply unhealthy, and more and more

457
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 2: people I think have realized this. I don't mean it's

458
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: unhealthy like you don't look sexy in a bikini. That's

459
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 2: a whole other universe of thinking or whole other perspective

460
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 2: on it. It is you are heading toward a shortened

461
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 2: lifespan less mobility, less energy, poor sleep, type two diabetes,

462
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: heart all this stuff. So I think body positivity more

463
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 2: has also play run into not just a cultural pushback

464
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 2: on this madness, but also science. Yeah, the science, you

465
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 2: could say, I think people are seeing this more and more.

466
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 2: It's also why I would note, and this is a

467
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 2: really positive thing. Binge drinking in the culture has really

468
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 2: gone down substantially. There's a lot of data to support this.

469
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 2: Drinking in general is on a decline. You know, excessive drinking.

470
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 2: I'mlen to talk about having a glass of wine or

471
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 2: two with dinner, but drinking as a form of almost

472
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 2: sport to excess because it is horrible for you. And

473
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 2: if you want to be healthy and you want to

474
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 2: feel good, drinking so much that you wake up the

475
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 2: next day with a hangover on a regular basis is

476
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 2: essentially throwing a hole. It is throwing a wrench into

477
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 2: all of your plans. So I think that this is

478
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 2: a pretty seismic shift. And yes, hot chicks are a

479
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 2: part of it. That is also true. There's going to

480
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 2: be more of a focus on the aspirational side of beauty,

481
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 2: and because if everybody is physically beautiful, then like nobody's

482
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 2: physically beautiful, right, I mean, we're all doing the best

483
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 2: of what we got. Very few of us win the

484
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 2: genetics lottery the way that the Victoria's Secret Models do.

485
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean that we all just give up.

486
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 2: And you know the side that we're going to go to,

487
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 2: the Rosi o'donald route. You know, it can be a

488
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 2: little more. You can put a little more thought into

489
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 2: your health, into your appearance, into all of those things.

490
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: Aspiring to be healthier and stronger and all of those things,

491
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 1: I would argue is one of the most important things.

492
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,959
Speaker 1: That young men and young women can be tough. And

493
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that you're gonna, to Buck's point, look

494
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 1: like a Victoria's Secret Supermodel if you're a woman, or

495
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: you're gonna look like Superman if you're a guy. But

496
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,919
Speaker 1: getting in the gym and trying to get stronger is

497
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: a really good thing. And I do think that younger

498
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: people are cognizant of this, and there are some negatives.

499
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: Because I'm raising three young boys, there are some negatives.

500
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: I think that their society is embracing that are different

501
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 1: than prior generations. You know, there is a benefit to

502
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 1: taking risk a lot of kids today, for instance, don't

503
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: want to get driver's license. They're happy to just stay

504
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 1: on their phones as opposed to going out on dates

505
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: or going out.

506
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 2: You know.

507
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 1: I think that's having an impact across the board. But

508
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: it is true, like my kids, when they see someone

509
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: smoking a cigarette, they react like someone is shooting As

510
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: young kids, they would react like someone was shooting up Heroin.

511
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: I grew up in an era when somebody's mom always

512
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: was smoking cigarettes in the car with the windows all

513
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: rolled up, and you know, you were always like trying

514
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: to just get a breath and it's cold outside, and

515
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: you know, the whole car is just filled with smoke. Heck,

516
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 1: I remember you know this certainly, Remember when every bar

517
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 1: you went to there was just a cloud of smoke everywhere.

518
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: Remember when they had smoking sections and restaurants and that

519
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: was a laugh because the smoke just went everywhere. You

520
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: go into a bar now and there's nobody smoking. I mean,

521
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: there are a lot of decisions that have been made

522
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 1: that I think are beneficial, and I think to your point,

523
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: young kids are not using drugs now. One downside is

524
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: they're actually using marijuana, which is much stronger at levels

525
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 1: that are somewhat high, and that is maybe more destructive

526
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: than using alcohol would be on some levels, because the

527
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: marijuana kids are using today is much stronger than the

528
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 1: marijuana that would have existed to twenty five or thirty

529
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 1: years ago. And our friend Alex Berenson has wrote a

530
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: whole piece about how destructive that can be. I think

531
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: we kind of sold the idea that pot is not dangerous,

532
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: and the frequent use of pot is actually incredibly dangerous.

533
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 2: So there's one of the areas of public policy where

534
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 2: I will admit I was. I was. I think it's

535
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 2: very rare for me to be bamboozled. But on the

536
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 2: it's no big deal, we legalize it, no big problem

537
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 2: I have. I am very much in the other direction.

538
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 2: I don't think people should obviously get locked up or

539
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 2: something for smoking weed, But this notion that we should

540
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 2: just allow it, it's everywhere. It's a it's a total

541
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 2: mess in New York City. Now, you walk down the

542
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 2: street and I'm walking down the street with my baby

543
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 2: and people are blowing marijuana smoke in our faces all that.

544
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 2: It's disgusting. It's just digusting.

545
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: It feels to me almost like marijuana smoking is more

546
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: common than cigarette smoking.

547
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, we just certainly I smell marijuana in New

548
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 2: York City. I was just there more frequently than I

549
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 2: smell cigarette smoke. That is a true statement walking around midtown.

550
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 2: And it is not harmless. It is very bad for

551
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 2: your mental health. There's a lot of stuff. But we

552
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 2: were all, we were live. We were told it was

553
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 2: all about getting people, you know, treatment for their glaucoma,

554
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 2: to help with their pain. It was all gonna be.

555
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 2: It was going to pay for all the schools. Right. No,

556
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,239
Speaker 2: because when you tax a lot of weed is so

557
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 2: easy to make or so he's to grow rather that

558
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 2: when you tax it heavily, you just the black market

559
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 2: just grows even more because people want to just get it.

560
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 2: They don't want to pay these higher prices.

561
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 1: So well, positive is good looking. Advertisements are back, which

562
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: I think is just a repudiation of the woke era.

563
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: Maybe some of you disagree. I don't think so, but

564
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,479
Speaker 1: eight hundred and two A two two eight A two,

565
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 1: UH will take your calls. In the meantime, Israel continuing

566
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 1: to be under attack at any moment. You never know

567
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 1: when missiles are going to be coming into the country, uh,

568
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: or when people are going to have to scramble and

569
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: get to their bomb shelters. And that's one of the

570
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: things the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews does such

571
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: an important job of They build bomb shelters, They help

572
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: to ensure that people are able to survive attacks there.

573

575
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,520

Speaker 2: All right, welcome back into Clay and Bock so much

584
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 2: who discussed out. I want to talk a little bit

585
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 2: about some of the big policy things going down, like

586
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 2: Trump on Russia, part of his discussion this morning with

587
00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 2: care Starmer and where that's going to, where that's heading next.

588
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 2: Also the situation in Gaza getting a lot of attention

589
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 2: in the press conference and that situation unfolding in a

590
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 2: way that is, you know, it's troubling. We still have

591
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 2: hostages being held, but you have children that need to

592
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 2: get food, and there's a lot of attention being paid

593
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 2: to this by the global media. Palaes Indian children need

594
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 2: to get food. Israeli hostages should have been released two

595
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 2: years ago, and well they should have never been taken,

596
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 2: of course, but it's been two years. They still have

597
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,840
Speaker 2: twenty hostages. So we have some of those details that

598
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 2: I want to get into. So there is a lot

599
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 2: my friends still to dive into. A lot still going

Speaker 1: radio station, but we want.

620
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 2: To be where everyone is.

621
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: And if you are sixteen right now and you are

622
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: getting news, I'm telling you it is either happening on

623
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 1: TikTok or it's happening on YouTube, almost guaranteed. And so

624
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 1: we want this show to be able to speak to

625
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: every one of all ages. And this was a big thing, Buck.

626
00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: I meet a lot of these people. I know you

627
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: do too. Who up and they say, if they're around

628
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: our age or younger, hey, I was a rush baby.

629
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: A lot of people out there, especially in the summer,

630
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 1: you're riding around in the car with mom, dad, grandma

631
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: and grandpa whatever it is, and you now listen to

632
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:18,320
Speaker 1: us because you found the show on the radio. Kids

633
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 1: now are finding shows on YouTube and on TikTok, and

634
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: we want to make sure that the next generation is

635
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: aware of the arguments and the stories that we share

636
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: on this show, and we got to go where they are.

637
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 1: And so I made a joke recently. I was out

638
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: with a dad and a mom and their daughter was

639
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,399
Speaker 1: in college and telling her how to find our show

640
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: on the radio. She didn't ever put on the radio,

641
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 1: like that wasn't a thing that she did. And there

642
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: are tons of kids out there that I think would

643
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 1: be responsive to what we say. So we want to

644
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: be growing that. We want to be growing on all fronts,

645
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 1: at all platforms, and we want you to go subscribe.

646
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,240
Speaker 2: I got to talk back here in ee podcast listener.

647
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 2: Thank you podcast listeners out there. Bill North Carolina hit it.

648
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 5: I've worked both on the ad agency side and the

649
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 5: corporate side, and I can tell you the people who

650
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,879
Speaker 5: made the switch to beautiful women, the decision was made

651
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 5: by the corporate people. They fired the old agency, hired

652
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 5: a new agency just to keep their jobs. That's how

653
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 5: it worked.

654
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I agree with that, the agency versus

655
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 2: corporate side. You know, I think the people making the

656
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:34,839
Speaker 2: decisions probably realized beautiful women actually sell genes, actually sell

657
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 2: anything that you need them to sell in an ad

658
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 2: This has been known for all of human history so yeah,
