But we also want to continue to 14 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 2: tell you this story. 15 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:48,639 Speaker 3: Bud Light is. 16 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: Under siege unlike any brand I can remember in recent history. 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 2: I'm curious, Buck, if you can remember a brand that 18 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: has had basically two months now. 19 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 3: Like this, and if you recall. 20 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 2: This all started when they sent a transgender influencer a 21 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 2: bud Light can with his slash her face on it 22 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 2: to honor her on her one year of womanhood as 23 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: the NCAA tournament was going on. She he posted the 24 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: video and it immediately unleashed a title wave on bud Light, 25 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 2: and I grabbed this. This was in the Wall Street 26 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,919 Speaker 2: Journal yesterday, Buck and I screenshoted this because I can't 27 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 2: remember ever seeing anything like this happen. Yesterday's New York 28 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 2: Times that they had a graph weekly retail store dollar 29 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: sales in the US change from a year earlier. Bud 30 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 2: Light is down twenty one point four percent. And if 31 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 2: you look at this chart, it is staggering. I'll show you. 32 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: I mean, like to look at it. And it's not 33 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: only that bud Light is down. People aren't suddenly abandoning beer. 34 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: Miller Light and Core's Light are both up twenty percent. 35 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 2: And the story said, there is no comparison like this 36 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 2: that has ever been seen where a brand. Remember bud 37 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 2: Light cores like Miller lt They've been battling for market 38 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 2: share for all of our lives. And suddenly bud Light 39 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 2: has lost over twenty percent of its market share, while 40 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: Core's Light and Miller Lite are surging. 41 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 3: And it's become such an issue. But everybody out there 42 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 3: was like, Oh, this is not going to be a 43 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 3: big deal. Nobody cares. 44 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: It's become such a big issue that, remember, Budweiser is 45 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: now owned by a Brazilian company, and they had their earnings, 46 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 2: I believe. Yesterday buck and the CEO of Anheuser Busch InBev, 47 00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: this is a Brazilian guy, talked about the calamity that 48 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 2: has befallen bud Light. Since so many of you out 49 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 2: there listening to us right now, just said, you know what, 50 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 2: I'll change my beer. 51 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 3: Here's what he said yesterday. 52 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 4: This was the result of one camp. It was not 53 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 4: made for production or sale to general republic. It was 54 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 4: one post, not a formal campaign or advertisement. 55 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 2: So, Bucket, when you get to the point where the 56 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: CEO of a company this large is commenting on one 57 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: marketing decision, this is a disaster the likes of which 58 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 2: we have not seen in branding in a very, very 59 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 2: long time. 60 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: I had tip the New York Post on the headline 61 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: for this story right now, beer and loathing. 62 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 3: Oh, that's very good. They do very headlines. 63 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: Yes, Clay, It's interesting to see that this is a 64 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: situation where the people who are pushing the boycott and 65 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: that the people who are taking action are really just 66 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: the beer driggers. Yeah, it's it's the customer base what 67 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: you usually see and what the left really perfected and 68 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: unfortunately you used to do very well, really weaponized for 69 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,559 Speaker 1: a while was using social media to create the perception 70 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: that there was an outcry and they would target the 71 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: sponsors of anybody who was on the right and hope 72 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: the sponsors would panic before they actually even saw Does 73 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: anyone care? Is anyone who buys the product that you're 74 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: talking about not going to because you. 75 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 3: Know the answer is almost always yeah. 76 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: Because the conservative person said only women can get pregnant? Like, 77 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: is this really going to mean that you can no longer, 78 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: you know, sell a windshield wipe or fluid Like, I 79 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 1: don't think so. But they did this for a while. 80 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: Now it's people have realized more. It's harder for me 81 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: to do that. 82 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 3: This is different. 83 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 1: This is the people that are the actual customer base 84 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: of bud Light who are saying enough is enough. And 85 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: I think this is something that will send That is 86 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: sending a message to a lot of other companies now 87 00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: because the customer base that just believes in traditional America 88 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: and basic sanity is powerful and is out there and 89 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: if you make decisions this is not a hard decision, 90 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: by the way, right, I'm not not trying to cast 91 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: aspersions on the beer industry, but to me and I 92 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: can't drink beer anymore because I have Celia disease, but. 93 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 3: I love beer and they drink it free beer. 94 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: And yes, Clay likes beer, but you know, beer tastes 95 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: like beer. Like if I told somebody who's a Heinneken 96 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: drinker they have to switch to Amstell, you know what 97 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: they even do? 98 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 3: I don't. 99 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 2: I've been saying this for a long time. I don't 100 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 2: think the average person. And the wine people got mad 101 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 2: at me for saying this about high end bottles of wine. 102 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 2: I don't think the average person can tell the difference. 103 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 2: If you're at a baseball game and you ask for 104 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 2: a Bud light and they bring you a Miller light instead, 105 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 2: or you asked for a Cores light, I don't think 106 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: the average person on a taste test could tell the difference. 107 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 3: No way by the. 108 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: Average person, I understand some of you out there like 109 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: I'm the greatest beer drinker of all time and I 110 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 2: can tell a huge difference. I think if you're having 111 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 2: a hot dog and you were sitting in the stands 112 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 2: and you were watching a bass ball game, you wouldn't 113 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 2: know the difference. If somebody brings you again, not with 114 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: the label on it. I think for them now I 115 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: can tell the difference between a Guinness and a and 116 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: an Amstell light, or like. 117 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: Some of those things like that's like you know, a 118 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: frappuccino versus Ah. You know, but the bunt shake universe 119 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: what we're seeing is And that's why I thought that 120 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: graph was so interesting. In the Wall Street Journal, people 121 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: aren't stopping drinking beer. They're just saying, hey, when I 122 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: go into the grocery store, now I'll just pick up 123 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: cors Light or Miller Light. And I cannot even imagine 124 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: if you are a Budweiser distributor right now. And I'm 125 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: sure there are people driving trucks around right now who'd 126 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: listen to us and work it Anheuser distributorships because you 127 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: have all these distributorships all over the country. The number 128 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: one rule of marketing is it should be don't f up. 129 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: Don't give people a reason to hate your brand. Because 130 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: you've spent what billions of dollars to build up the 131 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: bud Light brand, and with one advertisement you now have 132 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: torpedoed that. Now they're saying, buck, They're going to spend 133 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 1: way more money to try to build the brand back up. 134 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: But the way that they're doing it now is so transparently. 135 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: They had a country music song and they put the 136 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: clydes Dell's out. They brought out the horses. 137 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 2: You know, you got a guy in wrangler jeans dancing 138 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: around talking about how much he loves bud Light while 139 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: he's riding on a Clydesdale. And they now are in 140 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 2: the position where it's so transparent what they're trying to 141 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: do that they're gonna get ridiculed on that side too. 142 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: I think this is going to be a lesson that 143 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: they teach in marketing class for the next generation about 144 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: what not to do. 145 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: But it's also so obvious, right, I mean, if you're 146 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: trying to pick, this isn't complicated. 147 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: If you're trying to pick. 148 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: The thing is They finally went after a brand with 149 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: a customer base that legitimately felt like this is too much, right. 150 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 3: A lot of people people have been saying, oh, but what. 151 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: About They've done a Dylan Malveny campaign, a lot of libs. 152 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 2: Buy a lot of Nikes, super woke young people are there. 153 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 2: Found that that doesn't work as well. 154 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: Coacht Nike can do first of all Nike's you know, 155 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: truly you know, a global brand, so they're selling they're 156 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: selling soccer shorts and Greece and you know T shirts. 157 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 2: Filling also talking a good point on Nike. They abandoned 158 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: Colin Kaepernick really quick. They didn't release a Colin Kaepernick shoe. 159 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: They put him in one ad and then I think 160 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: they said, hey, you know what, this is a bad 161 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: look for us, and they kind of pulled it back. 162 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 2: It didn't get a lot of attention. They got all 163 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 2: the attention for the initial and then they kind of 164 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 2: bailed on him because I haven't seen him in any 165 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: Nike apparel. He certainly didn't. They didn't bring out an 166 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 2: air Kaepernick right like that. They ran from him pretty quick. 167 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's it's fine. They they finally, you know, crossed. 168 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: I think a threshold of doing something that was so 169 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: blatant and such an affront to their their customer base 170 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: that there are consequences for it. And I hope that 171 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: this expands out beyond what we've already seen, where companies 172 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: are going to start to realize that there's an awakening 173 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: that has occurred here. I think that a lot of 174 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: the people listening to this, for example, understand that you 175 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: have a lot of choices of where to put your money. 176 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: And I say this very openly. Sponsors on this show 177 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: for example, Yeah, they're partnering with this show. So if 178 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: you believe in the message of this show, not only 179 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: are we telling you about companies that we use the 180 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: products of and love the products of, but every time 181 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: you go to one of those companies, it's this is 182 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: someone who's decided that a message of truth and constitutionalism 183 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: and conservatism is worthy of my brand. Yeah, so every 184 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: dollar you put into it is a vote in favor 185 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 1: of the speech that you're hearing on this show. So 186 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: it's it's more than just great products. It's great products, 187 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: and it's also people that believe in what we're doing 188 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: and support us, but also support Glenn Show and Sean 189 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: Show and other shows on the radio. So this stuff 190 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: matters now. I think a lot of conservatives. You know, 191 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 1: it's changed now, but for a long time we were 192 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 1: all I just you know, I want to buy, you know, 193 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: my cans of paint from a company that just lea 194 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: me alone, right, I don't know. I want to take 195 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: myself out of this politicized marketplace. 196 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 2: We're all just want to buy a candy bar, right, 197 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: You don't want to have to worry about who's making 198 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: the candy bar and what they think about abortion. 199 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: But you're all in it now, meaning you know yes. 200 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: So there are some companies that choose not to be 201 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: political and what they're doing, and that's fine, but there 202 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 1: are a whole lot more that are and if you 203 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: keep buying from them, they're gonna keep doing it. 204 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 3: If you keep supporting them, they. 205 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: Have more reach for more ads that spit in the 206 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: face of your values. So this is a real wake 207 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: up call moment. And look, the reality of what Ron 208 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: DeSantis has done with Disney, I think also factors into this. 209 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: I mean we were talking about bud Light, Disney. I 210 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: mean these are iconic American brands that are being told no, 211 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: you don't get to have the Dei suite. Just make 212 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: everybody obey anymore, that's not gonna fly. 213 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 2: I think I got ask this question a lot in 214 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 2: the world of sports, that people would say, why do 215 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 2: you care? Why do you care if athletes take a 216 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 2: knee during the national anthem? Why do you care if 217 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: brands constantly come out and denigrate things. 218 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 3: That you agree with? 219 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 2: And my answer was, if somebody keeps slapping you in 220 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: the face and you just keep taking it, then they're 221 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 2: gonna keep slapping you in the face. And what I 222 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 2: like about the response that we are seeing to bud 223 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: Light is it's an organic, consumer based reaction. Seventy some 224 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 2: odd percent of people who drink bud Light are just 225 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 2: working class guys. And they looked around and said, screw 226 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 2: that brand, I'll move over to some other brand. And 227 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 2: I respect the fact that people were finally willing to 228 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 2: stand up. And I think it's a good example Buck 229 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: of not understanding your brand, because not only that they 230 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 2: did that ad, it's that they hired that new you 231 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: know chick and she came out and she said, I 232 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 2: didn't like that bud Light had like a freddy, out 233 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 2: of touch humor brand. That's what she said. Those are 234 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 2: her words, Fleet and so we had to change that. 235 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: And my thought is, wait a minute, why what's wrong 236 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 2: with dudes who like a little bit of off color 237 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 2: jokes occasionally enjoy football. I bring it back to that 238 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 2: old Corps Light commercial. Wasn't that long ago that the 239 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,119 Speaker 2: main tagline to sell Corps Light was we love football, 240 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 2: we love girls, and we like drinking beer, Like, that's 241 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 2: what percentage of men in America is that ninety I 242 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 2: mean a huge percentage of dudes like football girls and 243 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 2: drinking beer. And so the idea that you're going to 244 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,479 Speaker 2: abandon that and suddenly be going after the trans community. 245 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 2: This is an example buck to me, of what I 246 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 2: see happen. So often. These companies hire people in New 247 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 2: York in LA who've never consumed their product, who have 248 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: no idea what the audience is, and they go around 249 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 2: to their friends in New York and LA and they're like, Hey, 250 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 2: what would make you drink a bud Light? You know what, 251 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: maybe if there were a trans influencer. Well, you're not 252 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 2: going to order a bud Light anyway, let's be honest. 253 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 2: But they hear from their circle, which is not representative 254 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 2: at all of the brand, something that's fundamentally untrue, and 255 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 2: they go. 256 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 3: Out and they blow up everything. 257 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: Coming to more on this in a second. What do 258 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: you think, by the way, has bud Light had enough? 259 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 3: Is it? 260 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: Has the message been delivered? Or do we keep the 261 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: pressure on eight hundred two A two two eight a two. 262 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: You know, inflation and prices are rising, and now there's 263 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 1: a banking crisis wherever.

And this 338 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 2: little stupid heat stove thing is a perfect example of it. 339 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 3: And trust them, that's for sure. 340 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 1: They lied on this one because they knew that they 341 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: had to get this done before there could be a 342 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: successful opposition to it mounted in the state of New York. 343 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: And so what they do is they put the issue 344 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: out there, and then when there's the CounterPunch, they say 345 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: it's not even an issue, and then they push it 346 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: through in a budget like this classic classic machine democrat 347 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 1: politics at work here. But the notion that this is 348 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: going to do anything other than annoy people with less 349 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 1: efficient and make them use less efficient technologies. I'm just 350 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 1: going to say it. I like to cook gas stove 351 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: way better than electric.

Bud Light is tanking unlike any brand 389 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: we've ever seen before. It feels in many ways like 390 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 2: many brands right now are actively making the choice to 391 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 2: light themselves on fire, and I just don't get it. 392 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 2: And you know, when you see all this happening the branding. 393 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 2: This is a great email from one of our VIPs. 394 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 2: You can email the show if you're a VIP.

But now the way this is blown up, 399 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be caught dead in public with a bud 400 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 2: Light in my hand. You know what's funny, He mentioned that, 401 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of people like that. I 402 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,239 Speaker 2: was at a wedding Saturday in Vegas and we were 403 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 2: in the casino afterwards. You know, the casino waitresses walk around. 404 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 2: I was playing craps and playing blackjack, and they're like, 405 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,239 Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, just bring me a beer, you know, 406 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: like I didn't even specify. She brought me a bud 407 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 2: light and I got the bud light and I was like, oh, 408 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 2: I don't even want to do I was. 409 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 3: Like, I don't don't even want to drink this. 410 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: I just put it in the in the corner, and 411 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 2: I then didn't pick it up or drink out of 412 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 2: it the rest of the night. Like it was as 413 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 2: if the bud light was toxic. I didn't even want 414 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 2: to touch it, like Joe was talking about here and 415 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: again when I said, hey, just bring me a light beer. 416 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 2: I don't know what the casino's relationships are. They have 417 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 2: bud light miller. Like course, I didn't even really think 418 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 2: about it. And because I was in the middle of 419 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 2: playing gambling, stop to see if the bud light identified. 420 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 3: As a bud light. That's a good point. I don't 421 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 3: even know. 422 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 2: But I feel like Joe who just emailed this, there 423 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: are lots of people out there, and you asked the 424 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 2: question Buck, which a lot of people want to weigh 425 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 2: in on.

The 429 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 5: volchsters and the progressives, they're the ones that came up 430 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 5: with the whole punish people. So, hey man, don't don't 431 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 5: hate the play or hate the game, but they need 432 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 5: to be so terrified to make a stupid decision like 433 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 5: that that they will think like five times before they do, 434 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 5: and everybody else needs to look at them and go, oh, man, 435 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 5: I don't want to end up like that. And that's 436 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 5: the only way that we right the ship. If we 437 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 5: just let them up too. Earlsgo go, oh, we'll just 438 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,360 Speaker 5: wait them out and it'll be fine. 439 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 3: This is thanks for the call, Buck. 440 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 2: This is the most successful conservative boycott of a brand. 441 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 2: Tell me if you can think of one that's even close. Nothing, 442 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 2: nothing like this before. 443 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: And and I just think, look, if one thing would 444 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: be interesting to play. Okay, you're the you're the CEO. 445 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: Let's say you're the CEO of Vannheuser Busch in BEV.

This wasn't some intern who was operating the 463 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: Twitter account for five minutes who made a mistake. So 464 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,959 Speaker 1: I think it they'd be much better off if they 465 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: would just come forward and say we messed up, maybe even. 466 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 3: Use a different word.

Thank you for the call, Laurie. 567 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 2: I think it's the brushback pitch value is strong here 568 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 2: because I guarantee you bud Light is panicked. But how 569 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 2: many other brands out there, Buck are having secret meetings 570 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 2: where they're. 571 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 3: Like, do not do this right? 572 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 2: If you run a brand that is appealing to seventy 573 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 2: percent men. Let's say, if you are running and I'm 574 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 2: just talking bass Pro Shops, if you own brat bass 575 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 2: Pro Shops, I bet seventy percent of their population is male. 576 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 2: I bet it's a very similar overlap. I'm guessing with 577 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 2: bud Light. If I ran bass Pro Shops, I would 578 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 2: be sitting down in front of my marketing team and 579 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 2: I'd be i would be like listening here, and There'd 580 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 2: probably be a bunch of expletives. I'd better not wake 581 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 2: up one morning and find out that you knuckleheads have 582 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 2: lit our brand on fire by deciding to go after 583 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 2: people who are never going to shop in our place 584 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: in the first place. And this is I bet there 585 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 2: are brands Cracker Barrel, whoever they are, like. 586 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 3: Whoever the brands are. 587 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: If you did like a float chart and you and 588 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: you thought to yourself, Okay, if you drink bud Light, 589 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: you probably shop waar Walmart. You probably eat and I'm 590 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 2: just sketching out here, probably eat at Applebee's and Cracker 591 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 2: Barrel and like I would say, if you make those decisions, 592 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 2: they are lighting themselves on fire. We better not do it. 593 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 3: Mac. 594 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 2: By the way, in North Branford, Connecticut, what you got 595 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 2: for us? 596 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 7: Hi actually Branford, Connecticut. But I'm just I'm just wondering, 597 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 7: is the obviously the bud Light problem, but as Budweiser, 598 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 7: is that going through all the other brands, it's still 599 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 7: the same company and are they getting a reflection on sale? 600 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: That's good, that's a good question because they own a 601 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of different brands, and so if 602 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: somebody's switching from bud Light to Stella Artois, guess what 603 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: money's going to the same company.

When we're coming up on the end 670 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: of title forty two, there's already journalists who are getting 671 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: to get out in the field and show everybody how. 672 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 3: Crazy things are going to get down there. 673 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: Mayor Eric Adams of New York, for one, is essentially 674 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: begging publicly to not have any more migrants sent to 675 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: his city, which is so strange because all migrants do 676 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: is just make everything better for everyone with no cost, 677 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: no downside whatsoever. Illegal migrants just make us all wealthier 678 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: and happier. That is what we have been told all along. 679 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: So it seems odd that all of a sudden there 680 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: are some Democrats who have to answer to their constituents 681 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: who are saying no more. But speaking of Democrats, Clay 682 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: who have angry constituents, Flouchy is still out there, and 683 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: you know people have been paying attention to his masks. 684 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: Work on the margins maybe ten percent, but another area 685 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: where there's a lot of outrage because you know, Randy 686 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: Weingarten was up on Capitol Hill and she was just saying, 687 00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: you know, we. 688 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 3: Wanted to open the schools, but no, you didn't. You 689 00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 3: did not want to open them. 690 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:07,719 Speaker 1: You're the primary force in opposition to school reopening was 691 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: the teachers' unions and the Democrat apparatus that they control 692 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: these major cities. But anyway, Fauci is out there, who's 693 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: trying to say, we got to stop the Monday morning 694 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:24,240 Speaker 1: quarterbacking play twelve? What are the real takeaways, the real lessons? 695 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 3: I think, yes, I think. 696 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 8: We have to get away from the blame game because 697 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 8: so many of the things that you have mentioned were 698 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 8: unknowns at the time. It's so easy. And I made 699 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 8: that comment in my response to one of the questions 700 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 8: that Davis Wallace Well asked. 701 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: Me, and this is in the New York Times profile, 702 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: in the New. 703 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 8: York Times profile, and I didn't mean it as an 704 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 8: affront to him, but I said, you know, this is 705 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 8: really big time Monday morning quarterbacking here, which is what 706 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 8: it is. So rather than have a blame game, and 707 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 8: that's one of the things that we have to stay 708 00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 8: away from. 709 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: Click, can I just just real quick here? They didn't say, 710 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: we're not sure, but we think this is a good 711 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: way to go. What do you guys think Fauci and 712 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: the rest were shut up, We have the answers. 713 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 3: We don't want to hear it. We will lock you 714 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 3: up if you disagree and don't obey. 715 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 2: You can't get away from the blame game when you 716 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 2: are to blame. Now, that's a good argument for married 717 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 2: guys out there. Hey, you were supposed to take the 718 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,240 Speaker 2: garbage out and you forgot. 719 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 3: Well, can we just get. 720 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 2: Away from the blame game for a minute. 721 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 3: That's not gonna. 722 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 2: Work very well because you screwed up. When you screw 723 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 2: up and then you say, can we get away from 724 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 2: the blame game? As you're opening argument, it's not a 725 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:50,399 Speaker 2: good one. Also sports analogy, Monday morning quarterbacking occurs when 726 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 2: you lose a game and on Monday people come back 727 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 2: and they say, well, on Sunday, we should have gone 728 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 2: for it on fourth down. 729 00:35:58,120 --> 00:35:59,879 Speaker 3: We shouldn't have settled for the field goal. 730 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 2: But everyone who is listening to this program right now 731 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 2: was criticizing doctor Fauci. In real time, we were saying, no, 732 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 2: you're making poor choices. That's the opposite of Monday Morning quarterbacking. 733 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,720 Speaker 2: We knew, Buck, mass didn't make sense. The data reflected 734 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 2: that the COVID shot wasn't going to eliminate COVID. We 735 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 2: knew that taking kids out of schools was a disaster. 736 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 2: We knew all of this, so we weren't Monday Morning quarterbacking. 737 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 2: In real time. We were saying, you're making poor choices. 738 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 2: And what did they tell us when we made that argument. 739 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 2: They said, you're trying to kill grandmas. No, we just 740 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 2: want our kids. 741 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 3: To be in school. 742 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 2: We're talking about this in the next hour. Did you 743 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 2: see the data, Buck, Only thirteen percent of kids have 744 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 2: a competent score in United States history in this country 745 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 2: now the lowest on record. Nobody knows anything reading math, history, 746 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 2: all of IT disasters, Fauci's to blame yem
