1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay, Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us as we were rolling

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,639
Speaker 1: through the Wednesday edition of the program. Senata Rick Scott

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: of Florida will be with us at the bottom of

5
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,159
Speaker 1: the hour. Speaking of Florida, Buck, did you see the

6
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: news that your new hometown of Miami has set aside

7
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: two point six acres to potentially be the location for

8
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: the Donald Trump Presidential Library.

9
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 2: That's some plot twist that.

10
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: If you had told people, you know, even a decade ago,

11
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: was coming, they never would have anticipated it.

12
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 2: I moved to Miami and suddenly it is just a

13
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 2: shining beacon of freedom in America. Not a surprise, Clay,

14
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 2: This is not an accident.

15
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: And I also think, by the way, this is a

16
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 1: really good move by Ron DeSantis. Remember last couple of years,

17
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: a lot of the DeSantis and Trump people going back

18
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: and forth, and they may still be occasionally fighting. I

19
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: haven't seen it in a long time in our mentions,

20
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: but this is Ron DeSantis being like, hey, Trump is

21
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: now one of the greatest presidents, certainly of the twenty

22
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 1: first century. I think now Trump is competing against many

23
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: other decades for historical legacy and is by far the

24
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: most consequential political figure of the twenty first century. Ye,

25
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 1: I don't even think it's close at this point. And

26
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: so some presidential libraries, Joe Biden's, I don't will anybody

27
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: even go visit. Maybe kids in elementary school because they

28
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: get out of school for the day. But can you

29
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: imagine being like, hey, what are you doing this weekend? Oh,

30
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to Wilmington or wherever it is in

31
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: Delaware and go to Joe Biden's presidential library. I don't

32
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: even know that he's gonna be able to raise enough

33
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: money to build it. They may just, you know, turn

34
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: the Biden Beach Mansion into the presidential Library and not

35
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: even worry about it. But there is talk. I'm kind

36
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: of laughing about it, but there is talk that Biden

37
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: can't get paid. Nobody will pay him to come speak.

38
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: There is substantial difficulty. I saw a quote where they said, well,

39
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: we think the donors will eventually come around.

40
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 2: Really no, I don't. I don't think so. This is

41
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: why the brilliance of Hunter Biden's paintings is what the

42
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 2: family should be able to fall back on. I mean,

43
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 2: Hunter is really the van the vn go of our era,

44
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 2: and so why doesn't that just, you know, five hundred

45
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: thousand of painting should be easy. I don't know what

46
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 2: the big what the big hold up is. So that's

47
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 2: one bit of news I wanted to share with you.

48
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: The Ice news.

49
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: Of course, we started the show with that the shooting

50
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: took place anti Ice written on the bullets. No ICE

51
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 1: agents actually hit. Reports that the guy fired into a van,

52
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: didn't even know exactly what he was aiming at necessarily

53
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: inside the van, or thought the van was loaded down

54
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: with ICE agents. Two people killed, he killed himself, is

55
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: the reports that I have seen, but no one who

56
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: He killed one and killed himself. Two fatalities told, two fatalities,

57
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: one self inflicted. Okay, okay, I thought there were two

58
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: fatalities one more with him.

59
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: Am I wrong? No, I'm asking you. I thought you're

60
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 2: updating this.

61
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: No, I think it was two. He killed two people

62
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: and killed himself.

63
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 2: What I thought? Right?

64
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: So killed two and killed himself? Okay, yes, a team

65
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: let us know if that's change or we got that wrong.

66
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 1: The other bit of news that I think is is

67
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: circulating out there, certainly is the Jimmy Kimmel return and

68
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel came back last night. I couldn't even see

69
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: it because it's not airing in my market of Nashville,

70
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: because Next Star has preempted it. As about a twenty

71
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: five percent of the nation is not getting the Jimmy

72
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: Kimmel Show right now, either on Sinclair or on the

73
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: or on the Next Star affiliates. But I thought that

74
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: he would apologize directly and without equivocation.

75
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: He did not. I thought that some of the things

76
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 2: that he.

77
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: Said were well said, and I will play this because

78
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: he thanked me for standing up for free speech, among others.

79
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: This is the part of his monologue where he started

80
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: cut seven.

81
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 3: Maybe most of all, I want to thank the people

82
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 3: who don't support my show and what I believe, but

83
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 3: support my right to share those beliefs.

84
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 2: Anyway. Who's who will or I never would? I will imagine.

85
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,359
Speaker 3: Right, Ben Shapiro, Clay Travis, Candice Owens, Mitch McConnell, Ran Paul,

86
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 3: even my old pal Ted Cruz, who believe it or not,

87
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 3: said something very beautiful on my behalf.

88
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 4: I hate what Jimmy Kimmel said. I am thrilled that

89
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 4: he was fired. Oh the way.

90
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 2: No, not that the other part.

91
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 4: But let me tell you, if the gun gets in

92
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 4: the business of saying saying what you the media have said,

93
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 4: we're going to ban you from the airwaves if you

94
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,799
Speaker 4: don't say what we like, that will end up bad

95
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 4: for conservatives.

96
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever said this before, but Ted

97
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 3: Cruz is right.

98
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 1: Okay, So there are other parts who may play a

99
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: couple of more cuts here. Here's what I would say

100
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: in response to that, I Buck's gonna get floor?

101
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 2: Is yours? Buddy? Go for it?

102
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, But here's what I would say. I hope and

103
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: I think that Jimmy should address and directly apologize. I've

104
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: said that before for the phrasing and what he said

105
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: on last week's show. But going forward, as opposed to

106
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 1: looking backwards, going forward, what I think should happen.

107
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 2: Is I think that this whole world.

108
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 1: Of left wing comedians and comedians and quotation marks, because really,

109
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 1: the comedy show, when it's only directed in one direction,

110
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: is not actually comedy. It's propaganda. I think that if

111
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: we're going to have late night comedy shows, they should

112
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: have guests that reflect the entire spectrum of American life.

113
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 2: And this is one of the things that you understand

114
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: why this is not You understand why this is not possible, right.

115
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: Well, I think it's because they have decided, in the

116
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: wake of Stephen Colbert getting ratings, that that is what

117
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: people want in late night television.

118
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 2: The opinion that is, I'm of the opinion, Clay, that

119
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: the audience has been trained and the audience has expectations

120
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 2: that they will not be subjected to anyone who offends

121
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 2: their lib sensibilities, and they are little snowflakes and they

122
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: will scream and melt if that's so. This is what

123
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: you're saying is again, I agree with you. What you're

124
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 2: saying is rational, but there's just no way that's going

125
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: to happen because whatever, what what how many people watch

126
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: Kimmel Show right now? A million? Like a million is

127
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: that's what I thought. It's like a million people. Nine

128
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 2: hundred and eighty thousand of that million would would not

129
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: be okay with anybody. You know, Steven Miller is a

130
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 2: brilliant guy and actually really funny. If Steven Miller was

131
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 2: on the Jimmy Kimmel Show one time, there would be

132
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 2: a complete freakout from his existing audience, right, I mean,

133
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 2: that they can't. Meanwhile, we've we're just so used to

134
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: this that we're like, whatever, just put somebody on. If

135
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 2: they're funny, I'll watch if they If they're not, I won't.

136
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: We just have a totally different mentality about this. But Clay,

137
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 2: they still cannot. It's like even Bill Maher tries to

138
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 2: tell his audience, guys, it's a better show if I

139
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 2: have right wingers on to give the other perspective, and

140
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 2: a lot of his people complain. Now, his audience is

141
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 2: a little different. They're not conditioned the same way they're

142
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 2: used to seeing Hitchens and Coulter and these people over

143
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 2: the years showing up on that show. But he still

144
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 2: gets a lot of he tells me that, or people

145
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 2: who are like, I never want to see a maga

146
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 2: person on your show, blah blah blah. Yeah.

147
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: And I'm unique maybe in this sense, because every time

148
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: somebody complains about anything that I do, I want to

149
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: do it more. So I'm a bit antagonistic in that way.

150
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: You know, if you complain to me because you don't

151
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: like something, that's not a very effective strategy because it

152
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: makes me want to do it more. And maybe that's

153
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: a little bit rare in our world. But you mentioned

154
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: Bill Maher. I think that's a great example. He has

155
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: probably the most influential talk show on television in America.

156
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: I think that's fair. Now I'm not counting actual political shows.

157
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: I think Bill Maher has the most influential comedy talk show.

158
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: Maybe I should have specified in America. I see the

159
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: clips from his show far more because I think people

160
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: like the conflict of ideas. I will just tell you

161
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: south Park seems to be having a moment. I see

162
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: south Park clips everywhere, and it seems to me that

163
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: South Park tries to do a decent job of making

164
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 1: fun of everyone, and so I think there actually is

165
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: a there is a market if you try to treat

166
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: everyone the same. Now in the short term, I think

167
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: you're right. I think there would be a revolt in

168
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: the short term. I think if you put on Nate Bargatsi,

169
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: and I'll just use him as an example, because he

170
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: is I think probably the foremost comedian in America right now.

171
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: In terms of his ability to draw an audience. I

172
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,079
Speaker 1: think people would watch who Are Democrats and Republicans. I

173
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: think people go buy tickets for his show, Who Are

174
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: Democrats and Republicans. I think he's in a political performer.

175
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 1: I think if you started a new show and you

176
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: made fun of everybody evenly, I think there actually is

177
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: more demand for that than maybe people think. I don't

178
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: know if Fox has ever talked about this. Fox back

179
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: in the day tried to get into late night game,

180
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: I mean the Fox Network, not Fox News, but it

181
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: never really took off. I don't know why Fox wouldn't

182
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: try to do this now. Maybe they don't want to

183
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: compete with Gutfelder. I haven't had any conversations with the

184
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: executives at Fox about this, so I'm just kind of

185
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 1: walking through it in my own mind.

186
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 2: But it seems to.

187
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: Me there's actually a desperate demand for someone who is

188
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: even handed and will dispense ridicule, as Johnny Carson did,

189
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 1: as Jay Leno did, as David Letterman did back before

190
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: he lost his mind, in an even handed fashion. I

191
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: think these people mostly just follow whatever direction the currents go.

192
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 1: And Stephen Colbert had tremendous success being a left wing

193
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 1: idiologue politician who was doing a late night television show.

194
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: Everybody else was getting their ass kicked by Colbert, and

195
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 1: so they said, we have to in some way copy

196
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: what he does. And I think it hurt Falin the

197
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: most because I think Jimmy Fallon, if he had like

198
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: a spine, is actually the most apolitical of the of

199
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: the late night host and when he leaned over and

200
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: ruffled Trump's hair, remember when that happened, I think that

201
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: he was utterly crushed by the result. I got another

202
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: idea for you, Buck, I think you have to move

203
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 1: these shows out of New York in LA. I think

204
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: you have to move late night comedy out of New

205
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 1: York and LA. I think if you did late night

206
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 1: comedy in Nashville, I think you would get a totally

207
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: different lifestyle. I think you would get a totally different comedian.

208
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: I think you'd still get great guests, but I think

209
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: it would be more.

210
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 2: Middle of the road.

211
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: I think it's not only the host, it's the writing staff,

212
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: and it's the world they're surrounded by. You know this

213
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: because you lived in New York City. When you lived

214
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: in New York City, you were behind enemy lines. I

215
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: think it's harder to do a show that appeals to

216
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: the nation from New York in LA than it is

217
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: from Nashville or Atlanta or other parts of the middle

218
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: part of the Cincinnati or Columbus or Chicago for that matter.

219
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 1: I lived on the Colbert Block.

220
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. So a funny thing for me was that during

221
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 2: all of Colbert's stuff, I would see that audience. And

222
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: one of the funniest things during COVID to me was

223
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 2: when they brought it back, they would have the Colbert audience.

224
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,199
Speaker 2: And like I said, I was on that block and

225
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 2: now I know where I lived in New York, and

226
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 2: I would see them every day for that show. And

227
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,839
Speaker 2: they would have the people spaced out play on the

228
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: street with masks on outside. Yeah, six feet apart, masked up,

229
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 2: and I'm talking about when it was thirty degrees outside, okay,

230
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 2: waiting and waiting and waiting to go into a packed

231
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 2: theater so like, and they never thought that that was weird. Right,

232
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 2: you're going to sit inside the theaters they were two

233
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 2: hours with shoulders shoulder with everybody, but outside, just to

234
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 2: be insane, We're going to make you stand six feet

235
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 2: apart and freeze your butt off with a mask on

236
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 2: the whole time.

237
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: When I came to New York City, when we had

238
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: started doing this show, and I got into the iHeart

239
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: elevators and the building we work in. Of the foot markers.

240
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 1: You hadn't seen foot markers, had you? I had never

241
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: seen foot markers before. And when I got on, some

242
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: of the people were facing the opposite direction because the

243
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 1: science that they thought they needed to follow was not

244
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: only do you need to space yourself in an elevator,

245
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: some of the people in the back need to be

246
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: faced towards the wall. I thought, I'd like, did I

247
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: walk into a zombie apocalypse? Like are these people going

248
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: to turn around and like devour me? I walked on

249
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: and I was like, what is going on here? Because again,

250
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: where I live and you now live in Miami, I

251
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: think to a large part because of COVID.

252
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 2: Where I live, we.

253
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: Did COVID for like six weeks and then everybody was like, yeah,

254
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: let's just get back to normal. And so this idea

255
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: that other people out there were sitting in circles in

256
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: public parks, or staring into walls in the elevator, or

257
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 1: walking around in hazmat suits. I'm like, I just never

258
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: experienced that lifestyle, thankfully. And I think if I had

259
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: been living in that apartment that you lived in, I

260
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: would have gone crazy.

261
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 2: I would have fun. Part that was the biggest apartment.

262
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 2: That was the biggest. I was almost like forty years old.

263
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 2: That was the biggest apartment in New York as an

264
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 2: adult that I had ever lived in. Clay's like, how

265
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 2: do you live here? I'm like this, this is spacious.

266
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 2: When I started my radio show, I think I was

267
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 2: in a three hundred square foot studio apartment, paying like

268
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 2: twelve hundred bucks a month for it.

269
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: Look, the only reason to live in New York City,

270
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: in my always humble opinion, is to experience New York.

271
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 1: Unless you're so rich that you have a huge, awesome

272
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: place to live. Most people live in small apartments so

273
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: they can experience the city. You just had to live

274
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: in the small apartment, I would have gone insane, Like

275
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: you couldn't even open windows.

276
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a real thing. That we had beautiful outdoor

277
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 2: space actually in that building, gardens and everything. There was

278
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 2: a roof and everything else. They shut those areas down.

279
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: They made this is what I ever knew. I know,

280
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: You're sorry, you've got us on this COVID thing. They

281
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 2: made everyone sicker, They made it worse for your immune system.

282
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 2: They made it more likely you were going to get COVID.

283
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 2: It's not that they didn't do brilliant things. They did

284
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 2: all the wrong things and somehow we're just you know,

285
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 2: Kentucky voted for Bashier and Michigan voted for Gretchen Whitmer.

286
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 2: And yeah, and Cuomo Oh is trying to make a comeback.

287
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 2: We'll come back into this year in just a second.

288
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 2: You know, if you're running a business, connecting with your

289
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 2: team is key, especially if they're all spread out. Sure

290
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 2: you have the phone and email and all that, but

291
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 2: what about instantaneous communication with just the push of a button.

00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: Senator Rick Scott of Florida. We'll get into a bunch

368
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 1: of different stories from him. But Vice President jd Vance

369
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 1: just spoke about the shooting that occurred earlier today at

370
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 1: the Dallas ice facility, and this is what he said.

371
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: And then we will bring in Senator Scott because I'm

372
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 1: curious how he would respond to this.

373
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 2: Here is jd. Vance.

374
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 7: When you go around and lie about our law enforcement

375
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 7: and you tell them that they're mistreating five year old girls,

376
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 7: what do you think is going to happen when Democratic

377
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:36,120
Speaker 7: politicians incur doxing, when they encourage us to unmask ice

378
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,679
Speaker 7: enforcement officers. What do you think is going to happen?

379
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,439
Speaker 7: When the mayor of Los Angeles encourages violent protesters to

380
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 7: get in the face of our law enforcement. What do

381
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 7: you think is going to happen. What's going to happen

382
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 7: is political violence, and political violence has gotten out of

383
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 7: control in this country.

384
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 2: We got to stop it.

385
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 7: We gotta condemn it. And that starts, unfortunately, at the

386
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 7: very top of the Democratic Party. If you want to

387
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 7: stop political violence, stop attacking our law enforcement as the gestapo.

388
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 7: If you want to stop political violence. Stop telling your

389
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 7: supporters that everybody who disagrees with you is a Nazi.

390
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 7: If you want to stop political violence, look in the mirror.

391
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 7: That's the way that we stop political violence in this country.

392
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 1: I agree with everything jd. Vance, Vice President of the

393
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 1: United States said there. I suspect that you do as well,

394
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 1: Senator Rick Scott. Your reaction to that here as we

395
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: start the interview with.

396
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 8: You, absolutely, you know it makes you mad. When I

397
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 8: was governor, we lost fifty one members of law enforcement,

398
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 8: and you go to their funerals. This is these are

399
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 8: this is a family. Once their own personal family. Then

400
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 8: law enforcement is a family, and they unfortunately with under Democrats,

401
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 8: under Democrat rule, under Democrat writer, they attack our law enforcement.

402
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 8: What do you want in your house? You you know

403
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 8: you want it smart. You want somebody to show up.

404
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 8: Who shows up with a You're not it's law enforcement.

405
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 8: You want to make sure your school is say for

406
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 8: your kid, I want to make sure safe. Go get

407
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 8: a job, you make it, make sure the restaurant safe.

408
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 8: Who does it for you? Law enforcement? You might never know.

409
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 8: So the Democrats have has got to stop this attack

410
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 8: on law enforcement. I grew up in a country where

411
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 8: if my mom thought I would ever talk back to

412
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 8: a law enforcement or say something battle, I got the

413
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 8: biggest whipping in the world. I would never have done that.

414
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 8: I bring my grand kids when we see when they

415
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 8: see law enforcement, they thank them. That's what everybody in

416
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 8: this country ought to be doing. Say, thank God, somebody's

417
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 8: willing to put on.

418
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,120
Speaker 9: The uniform and defend our freedom and defend their safety.

419
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 9: So these democratics got to stop this rhetoric. Princely hurt

420
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 9: dead kind.

421
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 2: Of Okay, Senator Scott, We're gonna have to have you

422
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,199
Speaker 2: call back in because I don't know if you could hear.

423
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 2: I cannot hear what he said.

424
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: This is one of those things where I just I

425
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 1: look around and I'm like, cell phones are never just

426
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: going to work perfectly, are they?

427
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 2: Like, I guess not.

428
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what ago we would have thought, Hey,

429
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: the signals will eventually be flawless, like, but it's amazing

430
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: how often you can't have a normal conversation on a

431
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: cell phone.

432
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: Now, maybe Elon will fix that, you know, maybe Elon

433
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: will all have sat phones essentially. I remember that was

434
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 2: such a thing when I was overseas twenty years ago

435
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 2: at the Agency to have a satellite phone. I was like, ooh,

436
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 2: it was you know, sixteen dollars a minute or something

437
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 2: to actually talk to anybody on it. You would think

438
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 2: that we would get to a place where this stuff

439
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 2: would all work much more. We got them back. We

440
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 2: can hear them now because I want to hear what

441
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 2: the good senator has to say.

442
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 8: Yeah, so we have got to stand up for our

443
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 8: law enforcement, and the Democrats have got to stop this.

444
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 8: Where don't their families want to be safe? Don't their

445
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 8: voters want to be safe?

446
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 2: But Senator, let me ask you this. Hold on a second,

447
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 2: because because Gavin Newsom in California, I know that the

448
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 2: law doesn't go into effect until January, and I assume

449
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 2: that they're smart enough to know that they can't tell

450
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 2: federal law enforcement how they can tactically do their jobs

451
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 2: the state of California. But I mean, what message could

452
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 2: be more clear than what he's saying, which is the

453
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 2: governor of America's largest state, Gaven Newston I was telling

454
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 2: everybody that these are basically fascist stormtroopers and they're hiding

455
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 2: their identities because there's something immoral about enforcing immigration law.

456
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 8: Look, they might have a mask because They're scared to

457
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 8: death of people like Gavin Newsom as telling telling people

458
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 8: right to attack law enforcement, don't cooperate with them, get

459
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 8: in their face. I mean who I mean? Like, doesn't

460
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 8: Gavin Newsom care about the citizens of his state? But

461
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 8: I was governor of Florida. You know what I wanted.

462
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 8: I wanted every family to be safe. I wanted every

463
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 8: business to be safe. I wanted every restaurant, every school

464
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 8: to be safe. So why didn't Gavin Newsom care about

465
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 8: the people in the state, about their safety? That's what

466
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 8: I don't get. You don't build a business, you don't

467
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 8: want your kids to go to school, you don't want

468
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 8: to live in a community that is unsafe. Support law enforcement.

469
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 8: It's real simple. They will defend your freedom and your safety.

470
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 1: We're talking to Senator Rick Scott Florida a lot of discussion.

471
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 1: I was texting with Senator Ron Johnson a little bit

472
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 1: earlier about the potential for a shutdown. He's got a

473
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 1: piece up in the Wall Street Journal about ways to

474
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: end this conflict once and for all. What should our

475
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 1: listeners know about the latest battle over funding the government.

476
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 8: Well, here's where it works. We only need a majority

477
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 8: in the hospital. We have to have sixty votes in

478
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 8: the Senate. Chuck Schumer, for whatever god forsaken reason, wants

479
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 8: to shut down government so some services will be stopped

480
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 8: beginning at midnight September thirty. He that's what he wants,

481
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 8: that's what he wants. He doesn't care. He wants to

482
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 8: shut down government. Well, Ron Johnson's proposing, which is really smart.

483
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 8: Let's just make sure that we just keep funding government.

484
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 8: We should have done our budget bills, which we haven't

485
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 8: done again this year, which we should have done. But

486
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 8: if we don't, then we'll just continue to keep government

487
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 8: open and last year's funding which is too high. I

488
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 8: want to balance budget, but it's better than shut down

489
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 8: and shutting down government and shutting down services. And by

490
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 8: the way, total workers, when they don't come to work,

491
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 8: they still get paid. How crazy is that? When you

492
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 8: don't go to work, you don't get paid. But federal workers,

493
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 8: which I love them, right, we have a shutdown, they

494
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 8: get paid. That doesn't make any sense. They don't get

495
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 8: paid until we go back to work. But they don't

496
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 8: come to work and they get paid. This makes no sense.

497
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 8: That's why Ron's Ron Johnson's proposal is very smart. They

498
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 8: will never have the Chuck Schummer shutdowns.

499
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 2: Senator Scott, how is the confirmation process going in the

500
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 2: Senate for Trump nominees? We had, I think talk to

501
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,360
Speaker 2: you about this a few months ago. There have been

502
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 2: a lot of concerns raised for those who are paying

503
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 2: attention that Democrats are doing everything except pull the fire alarm,

504
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 2: so to speak, to try to prevent nominees from getting through.

505
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 2: Has that process started to work a little bit more efficiently?

506
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 2: Are you getting Trump's picks in place? How's that been

507
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:03,679
Speaker 2: going in the Senate side.

508
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 8: It's like they don't They don't think that Trump should

509
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 8: have anybody work with it. So he needs to put

510
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 8: together a team. That's what presidents do, right. This is

511
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 8: the first time in the history of the country that

512
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,919
Speaker 8: the opposing party of the president will do everything they

513
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 8: can to block all nominees. I don't care who who

514
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,399
Speaker 8: the nominee is. And so what we've had to do

515
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 8: in the Senate is we had to change the rules

516
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 8: because the Democrats are Democrats are blocking every every every nominee,

517
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 8: even nominees that they will vote for. They've been blocking.

518
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 8: They don't want to do so we've changed the rules.

519
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 8: We had quite a few of our nominees approved last

520
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,640
Speaker 8: week that we will be back next week and we'll

521
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 8: get my goal. I think the goal is we're going

522
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 8: to have over one hundred nominees done in the next

523
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 8: ten days. Uh so we've got to get Trump's nominees

524
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 8: done and we you know, unfortunately, but what Chuck Schumer's

525
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 8: doing with all these antics is he's saying that SIMATE

526
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 8: was was set up to force us to work together.

527
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 8: He's just saying, no way. You know, we don't ever

528
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 8: have to work together anymore because Chuck Schumer is going

529
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,919
Speaker 8: to fight everything, and so we have to change the

530
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 8: rules to get anything done. Schumer needs to go.

531
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: What do you think about the Trump Library? On a

532
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: positive side here, I mentioned this to Buck. He lives

533
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: in Miami. He's one of your constituents now, Senator. I

534
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time in Florida as well. What

535
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: does it say about the state of Florida, the trajectory

536
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: of the country overall that a big city like Miami.

537
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people listening to us right

538
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 1: now in Miami are saying, this is great, We're going

539
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 1: to have the Trump Presidential Library here. What does it

540
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: say about Miami. What does it say about Florida.

541
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 8: Well, Florida's become the center of the Republican Party. You

542
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 8: look at his whole team, So many of them, Pam Bondi,

543
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 8: Susie Wiles, so many of them come out of Florida.

544
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 8: So he and you know, as you know, the President

545
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:56,919
Speaker 8: moved out in New York and moved down to Florida.

546
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 8: So you know, whether it's in Palm Beach, whether it's

547
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 8: in Miami, it's going to be. You know, it's going

548
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 8: to be in I can't imagine it's not going to

549
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 8: be in Florida. I know the piece of property they're

550
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 8: talking about Miami. I was just down at the Freedom

551
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 8: Tower just the other day that they've completely recently redone.

552
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 8: That's where all the Cuban refugees were processed when they

553
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 8: were coming in the sixties and seventies. So I you know,

554
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 8: look wherever it is. I look forward to bringing my

555
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 8: grandkids there to see it.

556
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 2: One last question for you, Jimmy Kimmel.

557
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: The story surrounding that as we're talking to you, next

558
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: Star and Saint Clair Local affiliates are not carrying the show,

559
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 1: and they just said, you come out of the business

560
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: World Next Star is continuing to evaluate and we're engaged

561
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: in discussions. We want diverse interests of the communities we

562
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: serve to be reflected and respected. What should happen here?

563
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: In your mind, what's the right solution?

564
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 8: Well, I'll make a business decision. Jimmy Kimmel has become

565
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 8: just toxic. You know, his audience, audience has gone down.

566
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 8: People are saying they don't want to see it. Like

567
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 8: I remember when Johnny Carson had a show, uh and

568
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 8: and Jay Jaylen know they were funny, right they This

569
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 8: is just topsy with guys like Jimmy kimmeldoo. So I've

570
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 8: never seen a show. I don't plan on watching a show.

571
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 8: I assume that they're making a decision. Is this good

572
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 8: for our audience? And is it fiscal Is it financially beneficial?

573
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 8: And think about it. If it's not, do you think

574
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 8: why would they keep him on the air? So and

575
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 8: I heard his audiences. His viewership has gone way down.

576
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 8: Uh So, I don't know why. You know, I'm not

577
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 8: gonna watch it. I know, I don't know why Republicans

578
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 8: would ever watch the guy. He just he doesn't I

579
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 8: mean what he what he said about uh, Uh, Charlie

580
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 8: Kirk was it was just completely inappropriate. It was I mean,

581
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 8: Charlie was a friend of mine. I did a show

582
00:29:56,080 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 8: most Mondays and for anybody to to say than what

583
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 8: they said.

584
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 2: So is just toxic appreciating here. Yep.

585
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, all right, Well it's going to get better. So

586
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 8: I'm very optimistic we're gonna make it better.

587
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you all the work that he is doing.

588
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 1: Positive there, Senator Rick Scott with us, we'll come back,

589
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: we'll close up shop, have a little bit of fun

590
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: with you, Buck. I still do think it's very funny

591
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: that Buck got Kamala Harris's book at twelve oh one

592
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: the minute that it came out. We'll have some fun

Speaker 1: your podcasts.

627
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 2: All right, welcome back into Clay and Buck. We're trying

628
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 2: to figure out the equal time rule over here and

629
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 2: how it applies to these different broadcast networks and what's

630
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 2: going on with all this stuff, because it's you got

631
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 2: to spend a lot of time on this to understand

632
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 2: where the ins and outs are. But I know that

633
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 2: it was brought up just a few days ago by

634
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,440
Speaker 2: the FCC chairman, Brennan Carr, saying, hold on a second.

635
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 2: The View is a political show, The View is on ABC,

636
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 2: the View is a broadcast network. Why is the View

637
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 2: not subject to FCC equal time? And I don't have

638
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 2: any I do not. I think that he asked the

639
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 2: questions which the only answer is it should be subject

640
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 2: to equal time. If that's a rule that we're going

641
00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:58,239
Speaker 2: to have.

642
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: Yes, this is where I sit around, and it's one

643
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: thing to notice that things are broken in the country.

644
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 1: When it comes to discourse, and you and I sit

645
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: around a lot thinking about this, I feel like, and

646
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: some of you can say, you know what, Clay, you're crazy,

647
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: But I feel like if you give me an opportunity

648
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 1: to talk to a room full of Democrat voters, I

649
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 1: can convince them that they're wrong about a lot of

650
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: what they believe in.

651
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 2: Now.

652
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: I understand that a lot of you are like, you're crazy, Clay,

653
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: you have no hope for that. They're not going to

654
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: listen to you. All those things can be true. You

655
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: can disagree with me, but I feel like a lot

656
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: of the things that we argue on this show, a

657
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: lot of left wingers have not been exposed to. They

658
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: haven't had to consider or have their own opinions challenged.

659
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 1: And when it comes to ABC, NBCCBS, we give those

660
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 1: public airwaves. Why would you allow Stephen Colbert to only

661
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: have left wing guest If he wants to have on

662
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 1: Tom Hanks and he wants to give political opinions, that's different.

663
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: But when you're putting on senators and presidential candidates, to me,

664
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: you should have to put the others on too.

665
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,320
Speaker 2: Well. I'm I'm going through the rules now, and the

666
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 2: rules are are a bit of a tangled mess. But

667
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 2: and this is so you're suggesting that our government does

668
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 2: not have a coherent policy when it comes to uh yeah,

669
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 2: maybe a little bit, a little bit, a little possibility there.

670
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 2: I would say, there's the bona fide news program exemption.

671
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 2: So we are a news program that does a lot

672
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 2: of commentary, right, And I think that this is where, uh,

673
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: this is where a lot of different shows would be

674
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 2: clearly in the uh you know, clearly in the exempt

675
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 2: category because you say, well, I'm a bonafi, I do news.

676
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,760
Speaker 2: I'm a news program, and I can have on whoever

677
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 2: I want as part of my news coverage. And that's

678
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 2: an editorial decision. The comedy shows are not news programs

679
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 2: and they're on the public airwaves, right or are they

680
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 2: going to argue that they are news programs and then

681
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 2: give up the fact at their comedy shows. This is

682
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,240
Speaker 2: where that's interesting.

683
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,720
Speaker 1: I think this is what I'm going to The market

684
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: based solution to me is if you did a show

685
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 1: that appealed to everyone, you would have a bigger audience,

686
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: everybody would make more money. That's a market based solution

687
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 1: your argument, and I think it's potentially true. I don't

688
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: know that it's true, is oh no, no, What would

689
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: now happen is whatever audience you do have, if you

690
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 1: had a balance show, your actually audience would go smaller.

691
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 1: And so being a left wing comedy show.

692
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 2: No, no, I don't mean interrupt, I'm just gonna say yes,

693
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 2: But Clay, I think you would have to burn down

694
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 2: the village in order to save it, meaning you'd have

695
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 2: to be willing to flush out your existing audience basically

696
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 2: entirely and build a new audience, which would be a

697
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 2: long and expensive proposition.

698
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: So if the market based solution does not work, is

699
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,879
Speaker 1: there a regulatory solution that would work? And that's where

700
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 1: I circle back around to if you're gonna have on

701
00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: I don't know, Chuck Schumer to take shots next to

702
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert on The Colbert Show, why should that not

703
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: be considered political content and you not have to offer

704
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 1: a seat to the equivalent of Chuck Schumer. Now, Republicans

705
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: might say, I don't want to go on Stephen Colbert,

706
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: it's a waste of my time. But to me, if

707
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:23,720
Speaker 1: they're on the public airwaves and they're basically doing Democrat propaganda,

708
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 1: that should be seen as a violation of the law,

709
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: and if you can't get a market based solution i e.

710
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: Republicans by sneakers too, let's appeal to everyone. Why not

711
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 1: using the standard of equal time to try to make

712
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: an argument that you are violating the law and the

713
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 1: auspices of the license that you have been given to

714
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 1: provide a full scope of representation.

715
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 2: This to me is a fascinating question.

716
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,279
Speaker 1: Maybe we need to dive into it tomorrow nerd out

717
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: on it a little bit, but I think it offers

718
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:53,320
Speaker 1: a pathway to successfu
