Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show.

Speaker 2: It is a summer Friday. I hope you're all in a.

00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: Good mood because it's a great time in America, my friends,

Speaker 1: a great time for this country, and I want you

Speaker 1: to enjoy it. August first today. Can't believe how quickly

00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: the time is going by. And we have a lot

8
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: of news to talk to you about. So we're going

9
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: to send you off for the weekend with everything you

10
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 1: need to know, everything that's going on, Clay, because I

11
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: am a team player, a dedicated co host, and somebody

12
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: who's willing to take one for the team, somebody who's

13
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,559
Speaker 1: willing to take those slings and arrows. I didn't just

14
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:52,160
Speaker 1: watch the Kamala Harris televised Colbert interview. Oh no, sir,

15
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: I watched the entire extended online version of the interview.

16
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 3: Which I appreciate you taking the bullet I have not

17
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 3: watched it. I mean I saw the clips all circulating.

18
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 3: This is the first interview. For those of you out

19
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 3: there who say, why would you pay attention, This is

20
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 3: the first interview she's done since basically she lost the election.

21
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 3: She vanished for what are we sitting on now, like

22
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 3: seven or eight months and now suddenly is showing back

23
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 3: up and she chooses, of course Colbert as her debut.

24
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 2: Yes, and it.

25
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: Is such a reminder now, Clay you, I want to

26
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: be clear here, Clave was not saying, and we have

27
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: a steak on this one, and I'm I'm still trying

28
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: to get back the world's most expensive steak that I

29
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: had to buy for Clay, right, so there's got to

30
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: be payback here. It was very good and there was

31
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: a whole light show that went along with it, so

32
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: we had some fun here in Miami Beach. I hear

33
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: about this place, Bourbon Steak in Nashville, which has incredible.

34
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: Views and is very change. To be fair, it's a

35
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 3: chain and I'm gonna make enemies today. But if you

36
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 3: were visiting Nashville and you were asking for where to

37
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 3: go steakhouse, because it's all the way at the top,

38
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 3: like forty third story, you can see the whole city,

39
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 3: I would suggest that that's the best steakhouse to go to.

40
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 3: I just now, as long as it's expensive, as long

41
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 3: as you have to take out that Clay credit card

42
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 3: and we do substantial damage, that's what I'm really looking

43
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 3: for because I'm still smarting over the Miami Beach steak.

44
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 3: But to be clear, Clay's thinking in a few years.

45
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: And we're not going to get too into the back

46
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,399
Speaker 3: and forth on this today, but we did that yesterday

47
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 3: that Kamala is at least going to run. Yes, that's

48
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 3: not a crazy I think that that's not going to happen,

49
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 3: but that's obviously our bet. I think we both agree

50
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 3: if she runs, that's amazing for Republican or rather, if

51
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 3: she were the nominee and one, that would be amazing

52
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 3: for Republicans, which means I think we both see this

53
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 3: as this is one of the worst politicians to have

54
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 3: been at this level a vice president stepping in to

55
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 3: run as the nominee that we have ever seen.

56
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: I just wanted to share with some of you so.

57
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,959
Speaker 1: Clay and I could could have it do a little

58
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: joy riding here through the Colbert interview. Clay, you haven't

59
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: even heard all of these yet, because some of them

60
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: are from the I.

61
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,399
Speaker 3: Wanted to react to them. In all honesty, I knew

62
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 3: this was going to happen. I knew we would lead

63
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 3: with it, and I want to react as if a

64
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 3: lot of you out there are two. I have not

65
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 3: heard one. I've seen the clips circulating, but I purposely

66
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,239
Speaker 3: did not watch any of them because I knew we'd

67
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 3: be reacting to them.

68
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: Now.

69
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: I just want to point this, Why did I start

70
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: off today talking about it's a good time for the

71
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 1: country in it is? I saw the jobs numbers not great.

72
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: I understand it's one month, no big deal. Economy overall

73
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: doing really well, and we'll get into some of those

74
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: specifics here at a moment, but I think it's important

75
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: to remind you all that this person that we're about

76
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: to play the clips from could have been the President

77
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: of the United States, Okay, that we could be sitting

78
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: here talking about President Kamala six months into her administration

79
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: with a stalled out economy, a wide open border, rising

80
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: crime instead of the drops in crime that we're seeing

81
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: actually nationwide.

82
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: Now, never mind.

83
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: All the the executive orders that are that a Harris administration,

84
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: the staffers who actually run it would have not It

85
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: would have been a nightmare. And I just think when

86
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: you start to listen clay to some of these Kamala clips,

87
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, we have her saying that

88
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: she's decided not to run for governor because the system

89
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 1: is broken.

90
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: Clay play cut this has cut five play.

91
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 4: Five announcement that you're not running for the governor of California. Correct,

92
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 4: even though in early polling you beat every other Candida

93
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 4: by double digits.

94
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 5: You said you're gonna set this one out. Why are

95
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 5: you sitt this? Are you sitting yourself for a different office?

96
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 6: That might be.

97
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 4: That's what everybody was obviously, but obviously people will project onto.

98
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 6: And honestly that it's it's more pats basic than that.

99
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 7: I am.

100
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 6: Listen, I am a devout public servant. I have spent

101
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 6: my entire career in service of the people, and I

102
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,919
Speaker 6: thought a lot about running for governor.

103
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 7: I love my state. I love California.

104
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 6: I've served as just elected district attorney, Attorney General, and senator.

105
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 6: But to be very candid with you, I you know,

106
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 6: when I was a young, young in my career, I

107
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 6: had to defend my decision to become a prosecutor with

108
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 6: my family.

109
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 7: And one of the points that I made is why is.

110
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 6: It then, when we think we want to improve a

111
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 6: system or change it, that we're always on the outside

112
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 6: on Ben Didnee or trying to break down the door.

113
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 7: Shouldn't we also be inside the system?

114
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 6: And that has been my career, and recently I made

115
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 6: the decision that I just for now, I don't want

116
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 6: to go back in the system.

117
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,799
Speaker 1: I think it's broken, broken because she didn't win Clay,

118
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: That's why it's broken.

119
00:05:55,080 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 3: I hate this. I hate this. She's been in the

120
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 3: system for her entire life. You and I and every

121
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 3: taxpayer out there has funded Kamala Harris's entire life. Has

122
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 3: she ever had a private sector job that means taxpayer

123
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 3: dollars are not funding her existence? I don't think so.

124
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 3: Maybe when she claims to have worked at McDonald's as

125
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 3: a teenager, but as an adult she has worked inside

126
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 3: of the state apparatus at California and then inside of

127
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 3: the federal government apparatus as a senator and as a

128
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 3: Vice president. You don't get to work inside of a

129
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 3: system for thirty years, thirty five years, whatever the heck

130
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 3: the math is, and then suddenly step outside of it

131
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: for six months and say, hey, I don't want to

132
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 3: go back into it because it's broken. I think, and

133
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 3: I said this yesterday, and I am going to die

134
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 3: on this hill. I think her advisor said it's actually

135
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 3: a backward step for you to be governor because you've

136
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 3: already been a senator, you've already been a vice president.

137
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 3: You don't need to prove anything by being governor. And

138
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 3: so just take a little bit of time, Just take

139
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 3: a little bit of time off, and then you can

140
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: decide to run next year, a little bit after next year,

141
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: early twenty seven to be president.

142
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: Well, and if she lost, I think you and I

143
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: agree on this point, if she lost the California governor's race,

144
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: since she really is toast her career, she really is toast.

145
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: I still think that really what I'm seeing here with

146
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: this Colbert appearance. And by the way, this goes to

147
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: for anyone who's gonna say, and we're gonna get the

148
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: emails that momentarily, I'm sure.

149
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 2: Why are you talking with Kamala Harris. Who's the leader

150
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: of the Democrat Party?

151
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: Who is the leader right now? This matters? And in fact,

152
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: she was asked on the Colbert Show who the leader

153
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: of the Democrat parties? This has cut eight and you

154
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: got a very Kamala answer on this one.

155
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 5: Listen, who's leaving the Democratic Party? I'm just curious.

156
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 7: Lots of lead and it was generally all.

157
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 4: Leader of the Democratic Party, you know, like, oh, that's

158
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 4: a leader donator party.

159
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 5: Who comes to mind.

160
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 6: I think there are a lot of I'm not going

161
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,679
Speaker 6: to go through names because then I'm gonna leave somebody

162
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 6: out and then I'm going to hear about it. But

163
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 6: let me just let me say this. I think it

164
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 6: is a mistake for us who want to figure out

165
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 6: how to get out and through this and get out

166
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 6: of it, to put it on the shoulders of any

167
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 6: one person.

168
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 7: It's really on all of our shoulders.

169
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 2: It really is everything that she says.

170
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: Clay sounds like the HR person at the soulless company,

171
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: lecturing you as you're forced to have like an all

172
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: hands for HR purposes. It's all she speaks to everyone

173
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 1: like we're all morons and no one can escape the boring,

174
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 1: inane things that she.

175
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 3: Has to say. She is the EI personified. I do

176
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 3: think that leave aside her individuality, she is THEI personified.

177
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 3: She looks like what Californians think their leader should look like.

178
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 3: That is, you know, she's mixtuor ace, Asian mixtuor ace

179
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 3: black woman attractive, and she is that sort of portrait

180
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: on the wall of what California wants to see when

181
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 3: they see a leader. The problem is she really is

182
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 3: an empty suit. And that's I think largely what many

183
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 3: people out there have an issue with DEI best man

184
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 3: or best woman. Right, let's apply the meritocracy. It doesn't

185
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 3: matter what your background is, doesn't matter who your daddy

186
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,719
Speaker 3: or and your mommy were. This is why I think

187
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 3: the sports analogy applies. Nobody gets to start with a

188
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 3: different score on the scoreboard, right, And I think that

189
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 3: that is why I'm making this argument in my new book.

190
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 3: And I'm curious if you could think of something. Is

191
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 3: there any thing in sports, anything in the world of

192
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 3: American life right now, that's more trusted than the scoreboard

193
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 3: where people just and if something's a little bit off right,

194
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 3: if somebody forgets to put a run up, or if

195
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 3: the clock's a little bit off, everybody's pointing at it.

196
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 3: It's a common foundational thing that everybody looks at it

197
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 3: and says, I trust that to reflect reality.

198
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 1: I would like to share some sports analysis here, Yes,

199
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 1: that would build on what you were saying, And that

200
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: is the desire to always get it right is reflected

201
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: in some of the recent rule changes. I mean to

202
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: me the fact that I can't remember now I should

203
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 1: know this, but it's either Wimbledon or the French Open.

204
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: In tennis doesn't yet have all of the like for serves,

205
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: it's still by the eye of the by the site

206
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: of the umps. There's actually technology now that can one

207
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: hundred percent get the lasers basically there. And they're like

208
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: this did or did not go in. They used to

209
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: work roll Garo's back in the day. They would look

210
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 1: at the clay marks, remember that that judge would get

211
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: up and look, yeah, and you're right, but.

212
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: I see this now.

213
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: Also in basketball, you should drive me insane as someone

214
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: who used to watch the NBA.

215
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 2: People want it to.

216
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 1: Be what it should be because they want the better

217
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: team to win every time.

218
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 3: They want the truth to apply facts to matter. Everyone does, and.

219
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 2: You see it. It is true.

220
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: You see this with sports where there is a true

221
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: sense of outrage that people. I mean, I'm still outraged

222
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: about when the Los Angeles came. I mean when the

223
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: Sacramento Kings had the LA Lakers steal a series from

224
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: them and the Kings would have won that I think

225
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: this is like twenty years ago now.

226
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was one of the most famous.

227
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 3: It's one of the most famous Lakers, Lakers, Kings, Volati, Divac, Bibby,

228
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,839
Speaker 3: all those guys. Back in the day. That series just

229
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 3: kind of fell apart.

230
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: And I think we want to get back to feeling

231
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: in pollend. This goes to election integrity. This goes to

232
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: the honesty of the transparency. We're seeing the whole range

233
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: of things, Russia, collusion everything. We want to know what

234
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 1: the real scoreboard is in politics too, and what's going

235
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: on here and Kamala Harris coming out to give everybody

236
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: a lecture on how the system is broken after she

237
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,599
Speaker 1: was the vice president for eight years. Why isn't she

238
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: telling us about how she fixed the system or fixes

239
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: she made to the system. No, it's all about bitterness,

240
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: which also goes to Colbert sitting there talk about bitter.

241
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,839
Speaker 1: The whole thing was just so sad. It was two losers,

242
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: Colbert and Kamala, who were given far more than they deserve,

243
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 1: having a little cry session together because Trump is president.

244
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I do think the symbolism of Kamala picking

245
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 3: Colbert as her first Back to the Grind interview to

246
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 3: the extended to Grind in any way, Colbert, if I

247
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 3: were sitting in Colbert's chair. I think the math came out.

248
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 3: They did the deep dive. He had one hundred and

249
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 3: twenty Democrat guests, and I believe it was zero Republican

250
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 3: guest sitting in that chair. If you are on CBS

251
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 3: like that, I don't begrudge Colbert getting Kamala, but he

252
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 3: should be begging for Trump to come on too, right.

253
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 2: If that, I don't think a true.

254
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: Arbiter trying to appeal to everybody. We actually, we don't

255
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: have time for it now. Maybe if we want to play,

256
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: we come back. I don't think this again, I only

257
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: watched the extended, but I don't think this part of

258
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 1: it aired. You should hear what what what Colbert calls

259
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: the sitting president of the United States.

260
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 2: On his show that is supposedly.

261
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 1: For all Americans to watch. I mean, you should hear

262
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: what he said about President Trump, so we can play

263
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 1: that for you. What he calls Trump on this show,

264
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: and how richly he deserves the cancelation and the humiliation

265
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: professionally that he has received. But Kamala Harris is the

266
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: most cringe inducing politician to have been at her level,

267
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: meaning the vice president that I can remember and it's

268
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: it's just it's funny to see that she's not the

269
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 1: leader of the Democrat Party. She may not even have

270
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 1: a future. We'll see, we'll see, but she may not

271
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: have a future in politics. And there is no leader

272
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: of the Democrat Party, and the Democrats co clearly need chalk.

273
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,440

Speaker 3: I was doing that yesterday and there's a lot of

314
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 3: people who have moved from different parts of the country.

315
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 3: And it's probably ninety five degrees yesterday, and I was

316
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 3: talking to a couple of the dad's kids are running

317
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 3: around the playground everything else, and they're like, I just

318
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 3: I never believed that August would be a school month,

319
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 3: like legit, the whole month. So my kids, my youngest,

320
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 3: not my two others, are going to go back a

321
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 3: little bit later. But school is officially back in session

322
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 3: on Monday in the Travis household. So I think that

323
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 3: is one of the main you know, there's still major

324
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 3: cultural differences that maybe people aren't grappling with. You're gonna

325
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 3: get used to this having moved New York to Florida,

326
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 3: but I think that's one of those things. So many

327
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 3: people have relocated to Tennessee, Texas, Florida, different parts of

328
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 3: the country. I know, listening to us school going back

329
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 3: this early is definitely one of those moments. My wife's

330
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 3: from Michigan and she still can't get over August. What

331
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 3: is that going to be? August? Fourth boom, full day.

332
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 3: Kids are back in session, So so it's officially a

333
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 3: new school year.

334
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 2: Wow, I can't believe that.

335
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: It's why it starts that So I guess I remember sports,

336
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 1: if you were trying out or playing on teams, that

337
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: they usually started around this time in August. But they

338
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 1: get these kids in school sortly what time your boys finish?

339
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: I always feel like school days were too long.

340
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, so well, first of all, the ones that play

341
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 3: sports like the day never ends. I mean, they have

342
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 3: unbelievable days by the time you're getting to middle school

343
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 3: in high school and they have to play sports and

344
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 3: want to play sports. But my youngest gets out at

345
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 3: three fifty. He starts at right around nine for elementary school,

346
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 3: gets out at three fifty. So I usually take him

347
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,679
Speaker 3: to school, pick him up a lot. That seems like

348
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 3: a reasonable day. But I just I even I was

349
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 3: a little bit stunned. Like Monday, back to school. So

350
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 3: you won't hear kids screaming as often in the background

351
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 3: playing video games as you do. During the summer.

352
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: President Trump's making deals all over the country that tariffs

353
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: are working out better than a lot of people anticipated.

354
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: But you can't rely on that macro global picture to

355
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: take care of the money that you have in your

356
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: bank account. You've got to take some action, my friends.

357
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 1: It's on you to protect your savings and your finances.

358
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: So let's take a look at what you can do

Speaker 1: with gold and the Birch Gold Group. Gold is an

360
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: appreciating asset of forty percent in the last year alone.

361
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: I just bought some gold a few months ago now,

362
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: and I'm going to be buying more. I'm a big

363

Speaker 1: believer in gold than have been for over a decade,

364

Speaker 1: thanks for being here. So we've got much to discuss.

373
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 1: I want to take your calls eight hundred and two

374
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: eight to two two eight eight two. And let's see,

375
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: oh I had mentioned this. I just want to play it.

376
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: This is from the Colbert Kommla interview. This has cut

377
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: six where I actually think Clay has as a very

378
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: sound analysis on this point. But here is what these remember,

379
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: this is supposed to be a show that makes everybody

380
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: laugh across the country.

381
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 2: Right.

382
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: Obviously it failed, That's why it's getting canceled. But here

383
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: is how Colbert refers to the current president of the

384
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: United States.

385
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:34,640
Speaker 2: Play it.

386
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 5: Less than a year ago, things were very joyful.

387
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 4: There was there was actually a lot of hope associated

388
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,360
Speaker 4: with your campaign. There was a lot of promise that

389
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 4: we might actually not only keep this absolute barbarian out

390
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 4: of the White House, but also we might actually make

391
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,360
Speaker 4: progresses as a.

392
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 5: Country with the type of people that.

393
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 4: We wanted to see in office and a younger, more vital,

394
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 4: revived political consciousness in America.

395
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: You know, whatever can enough enough enough barbarian Clay, which

396
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 1: tell everybody, I agree with your sense of how Trump

397
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: would view this.

398
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 3: I mean, if you told me that I was going

399
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 3: to be insulted by someone calling me a barbarian, would

400
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,239
Speaker 3: actually be one of the nicest insults you could have.

401
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 3: I mean, Conan the Barbarian is a big, beastly individual

402
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 3: fighting for truth and justice, and calling me a barbarian

403
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 3: would not be an insult. I would run away from.

404
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 3: I think you've seen that movie, right, It's I think

405
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 3: it's a fun movie. Yeah, yeah, of course, Like I

406
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,719
Speaker 3: think Trump would actually embrace this. The Trump social media

407
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 3: team is very witty and funny, and I can see

408
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 3: them taking a cut of Colbert saying that and like

409
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 3: putting Trump super ripped, you know, like kind of throwing

410
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 3: things around. I think Trump would actually like that. But

411
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 3: I do think the point is important here that if

412
00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 3: Stephen Colbert wants to be involved in politics, then he

413
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 3: should run for political office, or he should go take

414
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 3: over Meet the Press, or he could work inside of

415
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 3: you know, CBS News or if they were still employing him,

416
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 3: or whatever face the nation I guess is the CBS

417
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 3: Morning Show. But this is particularly pernicious, I think because

418
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 3: and some of you may disagree with this, but I

419
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 3: actually think that one way to make America saying is

420
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 3: to have places where politics aren't imposed upon us all

421
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 3: day long, every day. And that's not to say that

422
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 3: there's wrong for having political base shows. I mean, this

423
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 3: is a political base show, but as a sports fan,

424
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 3: like I'm sitting watching the Atlanta Braves play the Cincinnati

425
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 3: Reds last night, they're going to do a big, cool

426
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 3: Bristol takeover, biggest Major League Baseball game attendance of all

427
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 3: time at the Bristol Racetrack. I don't want anything having

428
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 3: to do with politics to be affiliated with that, right.

429
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 3: I think one of the particularly toxic elements of Colbert

430
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 3: is he has infiltrated in a world that you talked about,

431
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 3: Jay Leno, where everybody kind of got made fun of,

432
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 3: even Lee, and people could just chill, get in bed

433
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 3: and go to bed and laugh a little bit. Now

434
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 3: it is just Anderson Cooper's show by another name. And

435
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,199
Speaker 3: I think we lose as a society when more and

436
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 3: more of that happens, and I think it's unfortunate.

437
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,239
Speaker 1: I think that it would be nice to have a

438
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 1: return to the old ways where we could turn on

439
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 1: the TV and people who are comedians are telling jokes

440
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 1: that anybody could listen to. And maybe now the market

441
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 1: is speaking on this. I will say, you know, there

442
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: was a moment where the big brands we talked about this.

443
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,439
Speaker 1: The big brands were willing to start to maybe play

444
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: a little bit nicer with the conservative media. I've also

445
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:00,719
Speaker 1: started to pick up the now they're a little more

446
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,199
Speaker 1: sitting on the fence. I've started to pick up that

447
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: they're like, well, maybe Trump, maybe the eye of Trump

448
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 1: won't turn on us.

449
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 2: And so we can get away with business as usual.

450
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 1: I think that's I think that could be a dangerous

451
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: brand game for them, especially with what we're seeing with

452
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 1: Sydney Sweeney. I think it'll just continue to be clear

453
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: that some companies and some brands want to sell to

454
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 1: everybody and work with everybody.

455
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 2: Is true of late night comedy, it's true of people

456
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 2: who sell lawnmowers, whatever.

457
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 1: And others are still trying to cling more a little

458
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: more quietly, but cling to their woke ways. So we

459
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: might have to make examples out of some that I

460
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: think that's where this is going. You might have to

461
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 1: you might have to bud light some of these companies

462
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: that are trying to have it both ways.

463
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 3: Two things. One, I think what Trump has done is

464
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 3: for a lot of executives out there that became afraid

465
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 3: of the people that worked under them. They now have

466
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,360
Speaker 3: with Trump to come after the DEI universe that has

467
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 3: unfortunately grown inside of their companies. And I think this

468
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 3: is so important. I know we have a lot of

469
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 3: small business owners out there, and I know we have

470
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,959
Speaker 3: a lot of larger business owners that listen and consume

471
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 3: content on this show. You are creating what's the line

472
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 3: from Ghostbusters, buck, choose.

473
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 2: The most the form of your destructive choose.

474
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 3: The form of your destruction. When you allow the trojan

475
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 3: horse of DEI inside of your company, you have people

476
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 3: who start to devour the company from the inside. And

477
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 3: I think the larger metaphor is this is what DEI

478
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 3: has done to the country as a whole, because when

479
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 3: you start promoting people not based on excellence meritocracy, then

480
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 3: your company is devouring itself from the inside because you're

481
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 3: elevating people who don't have the skill set to create

482
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 3: value for the company going forward. And I think a

483
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 3: lot of ceo saw that, but they were making decisions

484
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 3: not in the best interest of the company, but in

485
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 3: the best interest of preserving their jobs. And that is

486
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 3: very often a very different dynamic. And what Trump gave

487
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 3: them his cover there to try and change that second

488
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 3: part of this, those people inside of the companies should

489
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 3: be fired if your goal is to appeal to a

490
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 3: market that does not exist. Bud Light is a perfect

491
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,919
Speaker 3: example of this. And wrote about this a lot in

492
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 3: my book because I've thought about it a lot. If

493
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 3: bud Light were correct and there were a huge market

494
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 3: of trans people out there that were otherwise not drinking

495
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 3: light beer but would if they were addressed correctly, the

496
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 3: market would have soared. When suddenly they go get that

497
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 3: Dylan mulvaney ad and start doing it right. What I

498
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 3: think is fascinating is when you actually look at the numbers.

499
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 3: I don't know that there's a single trans person in

500
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 3: America who was thinking I would drink bud Light. But

501
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 3: their humor is too fratty for me, and therefore I'm

502
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 3: not consuming light beer. That marketplace that you're trying to

503
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 3: address doesn't exist, right. The market for light beer is

504
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 3: dudes like me who want to not get as fat

505
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 3: as we otherwise would while sitting and watching sports after

506
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 3: our day of work is done. That is every light

507
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 3: beer in America's market. All right, I'm sorry, everybody who

508
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 3: drinks a bud Light instead of a Budweiser is a

509
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 3: little bit too fat. All of you know this to

510
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 3: be true. And wishes they were a little bit skinnier,

511
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 3: but still wants to have a beer while they watch

512
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 3: a sporting event. I think the challenge that so many

513
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,719
Speaker 3: of these companies got into buck is they don't know

514
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 3: who actually consumes their product, and they started sort of

515
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 3: sitting around mythologically thinking from their Brooklyn coffee houses that, oh,

516
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 3: let's address a marketplace that doesn't actually exist. Instead of

517
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 3: going to Ohio State Michigan and going around to tailgates

518
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 3: and seeing what beer people were drinking, or going to

519
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 3: Alabama Auburn and walking around to a college football game

520
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 3: or Buffalo Orchard Park to watch what Bills fans are drinking,

521
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 3: or even San Francisco to watch what forty nine er

522
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 3: fans are drinking. They lost touch with the basic consumer

523
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 3: who actually buys their product, and started addressing a figment

524
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 3: in their minds of what the world wanted. And I

525
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 3: think all of this is rooted in a fundamental misapprehension

526
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 3: of the American public. Because social media was all bs

527
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 3: and so many of these people started to treat it

528
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 3: as the holy Grail and constantly bow down to whatever

529
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 3: was trending, and I think it just created a systematic

530
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 3: artificiality in American life that is being destroyed now by

531
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 3: people who are angry overlooking around and not recognizing the

532
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 3: world that's around them anymore and saying, how in the

533
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 3: world did it turn into a situation where suddenly a

534
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 3: pretty girl in a genes ad is considered to be

535
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 3: a Nazi? Like, what on earth is going on here?

536
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 3: Eyes are gonna like beer, They're gonna like pretty girls,

537
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 3: They're gonna like cleavage. The world didn't change overnight. And

538
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,879
Speaker 3: I think a lot of these fourteen, fifteen, sixteen year

539
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 3: old kids and some of the eighteen and nineteen year

540
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 3: olds who voted for the first time, they're over the bs.

541
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,360
Speaker 3: They know they were lied to, and they're rebelling against

542
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 3: the woke universe and saying it's okay to be male,

543
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 3: it's okay to like pretty girls. I can't believe the

544
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 3: Democrat Party has decided that they're going to put themselves

545
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 3: on the side of there's too many pretty, blonde, blue

546
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 3: eyed girls with great boobs and ads. Good luck getting

547
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 3: young men with that pitch good.

548
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 1: But I'm thinking about this a lot as I say

549
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: good luck to the Clay at Buck show getting through

550
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 1: one day without Clay using the bo b words.

551
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 3: I'm going to be sure we don't give up boobs

552
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 3: in this country. I'll die on that hill. And you know,

553
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 3: it's funny.

554
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: I think I mentioned the lack of corrective mechanism for

555
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: Democrats earlier in the week. That's the part of this

556
00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 1: where I look around and I think to myself, how

557
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 1: does this change? Like you can usually see with Democrats

558
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: where the pivot is going to come going into a midterm,

559
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they're gonna start paying Oh, we

560
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: don't really want to raise taxes on everybody.

561
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 2: We just want to raise taxes on the billionaires.

562
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: Yeah right, bro, we agree, we want border security, we

563
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 1: just want comprehend you know that they start to do

564
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: on some of these issues though, the trans stuff, the

565
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: pretty girls aren't allowed to be in ads anymore stuff.

566
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 2: The Democrat base is ferocious.

567
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: The moment that you start to see anyone within that

568
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 1: party push back on this, and we've seen like a

569
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: little bit here, a little bit there, and some Democrat

570
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: will try to make them. Let look at Kavin Newsom.

571
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: I think Gavin Newsom has played foot see with this

572
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: a little bit. He goes, you know, yeah, it's just

573
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: so hard with the transports. You know, it's unfair on

574
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: both sides.

575
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 2: You're doing this whole thing an evil.

576
00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:00,040
Speaker 1: Keanu is gonna get slapped out if he gets a

577
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: a little too clear about that. So I don't see

578
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: how they can turn these things around, even to do

579
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 1: the usual headfake for the midterms.

580
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 3: I think, and here's my thesis on this. In general,

581
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 3: the gap between public and private is seismic right now

582
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 3: in the Democrat Party. Think about this as a broad thesis.

583
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 3: In general, the most authentic person wins. Trump was for

584
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 3: whatever you think of Trump, Trump was far more authentic

585
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 3: than Kamala was. Right, Trump was far more authentic than

586
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 3: Hillary was. If you and I were not talking on

587
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 3: the microphone, like sooner or later, there's going to be

588
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 3: a screw up. Sometimes it happens. I think you went

589
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 3: out before you had told anybody that you were having

590
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 3: a baby. The mic happened to beyond you. Remember this,

591
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 3: and like some people heard you saying that you were

592
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 3: going to have a baby. Uh, that one didn't slip out, Yes,

593
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 3: that one slipped out like we were I think recording

594
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 3: advertisements or something, and they left the mic open. And

595
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,479
Speaker 3: fuck of all the things that he could have been

596
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 3: overheard saying announced to the nation that he was having

597
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 3: a baby before he wanted to announce he was having

598
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 3: a baby. Sometimes there are going to be clips of

599
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 3: us talking that go out. It's inevitable.

600
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 2: Whatever.

601
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 3: It's not very much. They might be a little bit

602
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 3: salty your language, but it's not very much different than

603
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 3: what you would normally hear of our discussion. And I

604
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 3: think you would say, and I think most of you

605
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 3: would recognize, there's really not very much difference between what

606
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 3: I would say in public at a restaurant or a

607
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 3: bar and what I would say on the mic, for

608
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 3: better or worse, and so it's hard to attack people

609
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 3: for being what they are. Your point on Gavin Newsom,

610
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 3: if we were having a nice glass of Charnay at

611
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 3: the French laundry with him, he would one billion percent

612
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 3: say the whole trans stuff in sports is totally ridiculous.

613
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 3: It's indispensible, and most male Democrat office holders would all

614
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 3: say that privately, but they would not say it publicly.

615
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 3: When the masses the general public recognizes that you're not

616
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 3: being honest with them, they revolt against you. And I

617
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 3: think your question is what are they going to do?

618
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 3: Because the gap between what they say and what they

619
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 3: actually believe is larger than maybe it's ever been, particularly

620
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 3: for male officeholders who know this is totally BS. Look,

621
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 3: I want to tell you, rolling into the weekend, maybe

622
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 3: you are thinking about wanting to make sure your home

623
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 3: is a little bit safer, but you don't want to

624
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 3: add to the lethal protection you have in your house.

00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,200

661
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 3: Pastor John in Saratoga Springs, New York, fire Away Pastor John.

662
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 9: Hey, guys, longtime listener. And actually I heard by the

663
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 9: way that somebody said that they still have Rush in

664
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 9: their phone as well, so do I.

665
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 2: But love you guys.

666
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 9: I had a question. I really want your thoughts on

667
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 9: how do you how would you come down on the

668
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,799
Speaker 9: side of marketing in terms of a.

669
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,839
Speaker 5: Church for what age group?

670
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 3: For what age group of you mean talking to try

671
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 3: about how to get new people into the church.

672
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, we're on and we try. We have podcasts

673
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 9: and we do different things, and we're how do we

674
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 9: appeal when it comes to lack of business because we

675
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 9: are a business. The bottom line is, I mean, we're

676
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 9: not a mainline denomination. We're in assemblies of God. We

677
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 9: preach the word, we don't compromise from the pulpit, But

678
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,280
Speaker 9: how do we appeal to people that are on different

679
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:25,240
Speaker 9: sides of the aisle politically? Of course, we don't preach

680
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 9: politics from the platform, But how do we do that

681
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 9: in terms of we want a bigger we want a

682
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,879
Speaker 9: chunk of the population to come to hear what we

683
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 9: say about the Lord. Uh?

684
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:41,760
Speaker 3: Okay, So, first of all, I am not an expert

685
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 3: in how to create a larger congregation for any of

686
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 3: the many pastors that are out there listening right now.

687
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 3: What I would say in general, Buck, and I bet

688
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 3: you would sign off on this is for the younger generation.

689
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 3: You're starting to see a lot of young men come

690
00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 3: back into the church. To be not the case. I

691
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 3: think a lot of young men in particular are looking

692
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 3: for answers on a larger scale, and they're searching in

693
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 3: many ways, including the church.

694
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 1: So I was raised in a very Catholic household, meaning

695
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 1: we went to church. Church was important, did all the

696
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 1: into everything, Confirmation, all my siblings, everybody went to college.

697
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 2: Fell away a little bit after college.

698
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,479
Speaker 1: And now that I'm with the birth of my son, Clay,

699
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 1: Karen and I have started going every Sunday again. So

700
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: I'm part of the return to Catholicism that's going on

701
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: in a lot of places across the country. Maybe part

702
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: of a larger discussion for later, but makes a lot

703
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: of sense.

704
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think. Look, I have been going to church

705
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 3: now with my kids far more than I did. You know,

706
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 3: when I was a single guy, for sure, and when

707
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 3: I was younger. And I do think a lot of

708
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 3: people are out there looking for answers. The younger you are,

709
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 3: I would try to reach out to them where they

710
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 3: are Social media in particular,
