Now I could 42 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: play the fife in the Revolutionary War. We're having all 43 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: the job they didn't do in the Civil War. 44 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: I think they had moved on. 45 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: I think the technology was such that they had moved 46 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: on from the fight. 47 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 2: On the sixties. 48 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: Oh man, I don't think people still play the fife now, 49 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: I don't think it's we have some Civil War reenactors. 50 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: What would wind instrument? Were they playing out in the 51 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: field in the Civil War or real? I think they 52 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: had real, uh fluial flutes by then. Well the food 53 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: has keys and stuff. I don't think you would take 54 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: that out. That's gonna be tough to clean. I think 55 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: they had them. I think they had the flute in 56 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: the in the Civil War. By the way, what about 57 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: the is it insanely brave or insanely dumb? Sometimes they overlap. 58 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: Can you imagine being the guy who was in the 59 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: military that didn't have done and just played while people 60 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: were shooting and shooting. I thought I thought about this before, 61 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: like to be the like the drummer boy and the 62 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: Revolution or something, and I'm like, I want a musket. 63 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: I want like a backup musket. I would not be 64 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: you know, holding the colors, holding the regimental colors was 65 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: also you know the flag bearers, like the flag guy, 66 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: because the flag guys they needed to know where I. 67 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 2: Flag guy. You're like walking around with a big target up. 68 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: In these Oh yeah, well, well I'm not saying I 69 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: would do it, but I'm saying, at least the flag 70 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: guy had to be super brave, Like, I can see 71 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: the use. 72 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 2: Why did they have the flute guy? 73 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: Like, why not just get the flute guy a gun 74 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: and play less instruments? Play You know the answer to this, 75 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: because when it comes to a battle, what gets you 76 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: as fired up as some groovy flute tunes? 77 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: Nothing. 78 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: I I think the flute. I think the flute was 79 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: in high power by the time we're talking like Battle 80 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: of Gettysburg. 81 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: I think it's probably the peak of flute playing anywhere. 82 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: Like the flute guy in the flute. 83 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: Back in the day in the camp was the star 84 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: of the military camp in eighteen six. 85 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 2: What else are you gonna do? Well? Gambling? 86 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: A lot of gambling, I bet with cards, probably drinking cards. 87 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: I've heard rumors about moonshine being probably probably a little 88 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: bit of alcohol consumption. But in terms of sheer entertainment, 89 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: the preacher and the flute guy and the flute guy 90 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: was way less judgmental and made you think about dying less. 91 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: So I bet he was the most popular. So I 92 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: can turn us back from this digression. 93 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: That is my fault. 94 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: Some of our Civil War super nerds, you and Clay, 95 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: the secret society of Civil War super nerds that you 96 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,799 Speaker 1: guys all belong to. Let us know what the instrument 97 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: situation was in that era, because we all think of 98 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: the breaches and the fife and the drums for the Revolution. 99 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: But were they just not playing music out in the 100 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: battlefield the same Maybe they just the rifles were accurate 101 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: and far enough at that point that you really didn't 102 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: have as much of the music out there. I don't know, 103 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm trying to think back now. According 104 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: to producer Alley, who's using chat GPT for and It's Worth, 105 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: flutes played an important role in communication and boosting morale 106 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 1: during the Civil War. They were used to signal daily 107 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: routines like waking up, marching, or going to bed, and also, 108 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: as I just said, provided entertainment. It's probably the peak 109 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: of the flute influence in American culture was right then 110 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: and there. And I mean so the flute player on 111 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: that battlefield was a badass who was responsible for morale 112 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: of everybody else. So the flute player was kind of 113 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: like the Rambo of his era. Let's be honest. I 114 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: hope the flute guy didn't have to be involved in 115 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: the full charge. I hope they were like, hey, flute guy, 116 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: you can stop, you know, six hundred yards from the 117 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: from the ramparts, because can you imagine the flute guy 118 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: just walking into cannons, Like, I mean, things got really 119 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: rough in the in the you know, I just finished 120 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 1: my Grant Turnow biography, right, and so I've kind of 121 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: gone through the Grant campaigns and obviously when it would 122 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: get hand to hand, somebody at some point probably got 123 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 1: beaten senseless by a flute. That actually happened. 124 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 2: They had a tough way to go, you know. 125 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you had to pick somebody 126 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: to fight into hand, I think I'd picked the guy 127 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: with the flute. 128 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. 129 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: You watch the if I'm there in the If I'm 130 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 1: there in the ramparts and the drummer with a saber 131 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: that I got over with the I'm going after flute guy. Yeah, 132 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: the drummers got like pretty strong forearms. I don't think 133 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: you go for the drummer. I think you go for. 134 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: Flute guy for sure. 135 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,679 Speaker 1: You imagine like when they're sitting around after the battle, 136 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,679 Speaker 1: they're like, you know what happened to Timmy If flute 137 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: guy got. 138 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: Him was nasty to the head. Timmy got taken out 139 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: by the flute guy. 140 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, the flute guy was tougher than we thought, like 141 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:38,799 Speaker 1: just totally people making fun of his instrument, and he 142 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: he went berserker rage out there on the battlefield. It's 143 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: like it would be the Remember when Scarlett and Going 144 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: with the Wind she married the guy and then he 145 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: died of the disease before he got out to actually 146 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: fight in the battle. Do you remember that she really 147 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: liked spoiler alert Ashley uh uh no, sorry, she liked 148 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: rhtt Butler No, Ashley Wilkes, I can't remember.

I'm putting something out there right now. 150 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: I have never seen Gone with the Wind, which is 151 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: really crazy. I know, the most successful movie of all time, 152 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: I think so. Yeah, if you add up like the 153 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: dollars for inflation and all that stuff, yes, can we 154 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: reverse to Ashley Wilkes And then Ashley was with Melanie 155 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: and then she ended up with a guy, and the 156 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: guy she married spoiler alert it's been one hundred years, 157 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: but spoiler alert, he dies in camp. He doesn't even 158 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: make it. It's like the getting killed by the flute guy. 159 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: You can't die before the battle even happens. I got 160 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: to take your word on all that because I haven't 161 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: seen the movie.

I think, 171 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: if you're a first lady or you're a former president, 172 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: the least you can do, the absolute least you can do, 173 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: is just show up and sit at the funeral to 174 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: show respect for America. Michelle Obama would not do it, 175 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: and she says she's the victim because people were too 176 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: tough on her for that choice. 177 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 4: Listen, my decision to skip the inauguration. You know what, 178 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 4: people don't realize from my decision to make choices at 179 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 4: the beginning of this year that suited me were met 180 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 4: with such ridicule and criticism, like people couldn't believe that 181 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 4: I was saying no for any other reason that they 182 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 4: had to assume that my marriage was falling. 183 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: Right. 184 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 4: You know. It's like, while I'm here really trying to 185 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 4: own my life and intentionally practice making the choice that 186 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 4: was right for me, and it took everything in my 187 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 4: power to not do the thing that was right or 188 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 4: that was was that that was perceived as right, but 189 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 4: do the thing that was right for me. That was 190 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 4: a hard thing for me to do. I had to 191 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 4: basically trick myself out of it. And it started with 192 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 4: not having anything to wear. I mean I had affirmatively 193 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 4: because I'm always prepared for in a funeral anything I have. 194 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 4: I walk around with the right dress. I travel with 195 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 4: clothes just in case something pops off. So I was like, 196 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 4: if I'm not going to do this thing, I gotta 197 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 4: tell my team I don't even want to have a 198 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 4: dress ready. Yeah. Right, because it's so easy to just say, 199 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 4: let me do the right thing. 200 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 2: I mean, does she think she's the good guy here? 201 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 1: Being an adult, I watched this last night, Buck and 202 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: I sent it in to producer Greg. Being an adult 203 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: means that you often do the right thing even when 204 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: you don't want to do it. 205 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 2: That is the sign I. 206 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 1: Would argue more than almost anything else, of maturity and 207 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: becoming an adult not doing the thing that you might 208 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: prefer to do because it is better for you to 209 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: make the choice that is better. And she said it 210 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: took everything in my power not to do the right thing. 211 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: Maybe that's a sign that you should do the right thing. 212 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: If it takes everything in your power to convince you 213 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: to do the thing that is not right. Maybe this 214 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: is like the whole concept of I'm gonna live my truth. Well, 215 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: there is no your truth. There's the truth, and you 216 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: either live by it or you don't. You don't get 217 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: to define truth. You can make your own opinions. But 218 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: this whole universe of it took everything in my power 219 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: to not do what was right is an actual quote 220 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 1: she said, Well, I just think we should remind media 221 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: matters that Clay's quote of the day so far as 222 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: Michelle Obama most overrated person in the world, most overrated 223 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: person in the world, she's the and by the way, 224 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: I hope they get the full headline right, most overrated 225 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: person in the world, and she's the anti Patrick Swayze, 226 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: who is the most underrated person in the world in 227 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: my opinion. Make sure you get that headline right. Clay 228 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: Travison as Patrick Swayze underrated, Michelle Obama overrated, and somehow 229 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: that's gonna be racist. Of course, Clay Travis thinks the 230 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,239 Speaker 1: white man is underrated and the black woman is overrated. 231 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: This is what happens marga world. It's just she's kind 232 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: of Can I say it? I think I can say it. 233 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: It's kind of a kind of a bitch and not 234 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: a very likable one. Frankly, you can use that word. 235 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: You're buck, just bucks. Now, he's really nervous.

I 282 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 3: remember exactly where I was standing and where we did that. 283 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 3: And that book was really targeted to young women going 284 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 3: through their quarter life crisis. This book is post COVID 285 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 3: and it is not geared just to young women. I 286 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 3: made it much more broad based. And also because I 287 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 3: have advanced in years since when I left the White House, 288 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 3: a lot of people that I met toward back then 289 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 3: are still coming to me for advice, and they've become executives, 290 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 3: moms and dads.

They're making big career transitions, and so 292 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 3: I realized I didn't have all the answers myself. I 293 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 3: interviewed over forty people, many the people here at Fox 294 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 3: News and like Gutfeld, Harold Ford, Junior, Jesse Waters, Sandra Smith, 295 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 3: Jimmy Fayala you name it, Darien here, but also like 296 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 3: my college roommate, my husband, and Dirk Spentley.

Everybody loved it, 318 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 3: but some there were younger guys, especially around here at Fox, 319 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 3: We're like, what about one for us? And there's been 320 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 3: insatiable need of young people who they really want to 321 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 3: be successful, and they're just looking for us to give 322 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 3: them the blueprint, and we don't have the answers. Of course, 323 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 3: one of the best things that I've learned and that 324 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: I could pass on is that I really worried away 325 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 3: my twenties for no reason. I was so trying to 326 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 3: plan out my life, and everything that happened great in 327 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 3: my life is not because I planned it. And if 328 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 3: you aren't educated American, you already won life's great lottery. 329 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 3: And so all you have to decide is how hard 330 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 3: do you want to work? 331 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: I think that's so well said, and thanks for coming on, Dana. 332 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: I had a professor at Vanderbilt Law School, Larry Soderquist, 333 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: who has since passed, but he was an incredible business 334 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: professor and his big thing to us when we were 335 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: in law school. And I'm sure there's some kids out 336 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: there that are going to grad school or you're going 337 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: to take the bar exam soon coming up this summer. 338 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: And he said, you are already set. He said, you 339 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: guys have done the hard work of getting into law school. 340 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: He said, the question you have to decide going forward 341 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: with your legal careers is how do you want to 342 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: work this. 343 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: Law degree? 344 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: He said, But you're never going to be homeless, you're 345 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: never going to be hungry. The big concerns in life 346 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: you have taken care of, and you should think about 347 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: that more than you do all of you. And I 348 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: thought that perspective was super important. And I think it 349 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: reflects upon what you said, where there are a lot 350 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: of kids out there in their twenties. They get out 351 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: to school, they get out of grad school, they have 352 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: these quarter like crises I had won myself, and they 353 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 1: wonder what else is out there? And I think this 354 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: is an important lesson that you're trying to teach them. 355 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 2: Is that one. 356 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: You're still going to be trying to figure out a 357 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 1: lot of things when you're in your thirties, forties, fifties, 358 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: and sixties. Nobody has all the answers, but you're probably 359 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: going to be okay. 360 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 3: Oh absolutely. And one of my favorite mentors was President Bush, 361 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 3: and I remember he would talk about the importance of 362 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 3: not being so risk averse, that America was built on 363 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 3: people willing to take a risk and to be pioneers. 364 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 3: And I think about Elon Musk right, like he takes 365 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 3: risks all the time, like landing rockets on chopsticks. But 366 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 3: because he was able to, he was willing to take 367 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 3: a risk, you can get great reward. And I remember 368 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 3: I was really hesitant to start my own business after 369 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 3: I left the White House because I had a million 370 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 3: reasons that were stupid really looking back. And the President 371 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 3: said to me, ask us this, what is the worst 372 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 3: thing that could happen to you if it fails? So 373 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 3: I saw of Hemden had for a minute and he said, 374 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 3: so you're telling me the worst thing that could happen 375 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 3: to you. An educated American woman who was the White 376 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 3: House Press secretary start throwing this say it fails, and 377 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 3: the worst thing you have to do is go back 378 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 3: and work for another PR firm. That's the worst thing. 379 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: And he said, I'm not persuaded by that, And that's 380 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 3: really helpful to me. I learned from doctor Samantha Boordman. 381 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 3: When people are dealing with anxiety, and of course, of 382 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 3: course we all do, and also we're surrounded by young 383 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 3: people who have a lot of it, you ask yourself 384 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:33,959 Speaker 3: what's the worst thing that could happen, and what's the 385 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 3: best thing that could happen? And usually what happens is 386 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 3: somewhere in the middle, and it can calm you down 387 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 3: pretty quickly. 388 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: Yes, I think there's an old quote from one of 389 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: the great Stoics that we suffer more in imagination than reality. 390 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: It might have been Seneca, or it's one of them. 391 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: So it's a version. You know, Dane is updating it 392 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: for the twenty first century. 393 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: But this is very true or not? 394 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 3: Jackie Waters when I interviewed him for this book, Jesse 395 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 3: Waters talks about the Stoics as well. In this book. 396 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: Well, Jesse Waters and I are apparently brothers from another mother. 397 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 2: I had no IDEA. 398 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: Fun fact, Jesse doesn't even know this, but maybe he 399 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: was in I think it was like an English one 400 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: oh one class at Trinity College with my older brother 401 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: at one point, to give your sense to what a 402 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: small world it was. Then Mason transferred went to a 403 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: different school. But yes, Jesse and I have been give 404 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: me the t Yeah, Jesse and I have and ship's passing. 405 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: Then Mason assures me he might have popped his collar, 406 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: but he was a very nice guy. But yes, we've 407 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: got Dana Perino with us right now, and she's got 408 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: a new book out which you guys should all check out, 409 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 1: and her books have been huge successes up to this point. 410 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: So what's uh, You know, if you're if you're looking 411 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: now for the the people out there who are going 412 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,239 Speaker 1: to be grabbing this book, if there's one thing that 413 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 1: you want them to really take out of it today, 414 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: or rather one thing that they would read and you 415 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 1: hope they could apply to their lives as soon as possible, Dan, 416 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: And what would that be? 417 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 3: Well, I think we've covered a lot of it, and 418 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 3: especially what I'm hoping is that when people read this, 419 00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 3: they will realize they don't need to worry as much. 420 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 3: One of the reasons that you seek out a book 421 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 3: like this is because you're trying to get some answers 422 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 3: the things that are bothering you. So I'm hoping that 423 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 3: that is true. But I would also pass on this advice. 424 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 3: Most of the mentees that come to see me, they 425 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 3: are definitely interested in professional guidance, but they also are 426 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 3: looking for meaningful personal lives. They would love to meet somebody, 427 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 3: they want to get married, they want to have families, 428 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 3: and they want to find a work life balance that 429 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 3: will allow them to have a great, wonderful, meaningful life. 430 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 3: And my experience was unusual. I met my husband on 431 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 3: an airplane twenty eight years ago, and there's a million 432 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 3: reasons why we might not have met, or that we 433 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 3: could have talked ourselves out of it. But choosing to 434 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 3: be loved is not a career limiting decision. It actually 435 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 3: made all the difference for me. And I'm hoping that 436 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 3: young people can take that away and realize that investing 437 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 3: in yourself in a commitment is a great way to 438 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 3: enhance your life and your career. 439 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: I got a great I got a reverse for a second. Here, 440 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: take us into this. This is a great story of romance. 441 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: You met your husband on a plane, like what was 442 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: the first move here? Did he spill his his peanuts 443 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: or his seltzer and your lap? 444 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 2: Like? 445 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: How did he get this going? 446 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 2: Well? 447 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 3: Okay, so it was nineteen ninety seven, So let's go 448 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 3: on the way way back machine. Nobody had phones, nobody 449 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 3: had air pods. Okay. So I was carrying a book. 450 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 3: I was working for a congressman. I was coming back 451 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 3: from washing from Denver, going Denver Chicago, Chicago, DC. And 452 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 3: I was on an American Airlines flight. I almost missed 453 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 3: the plane because it was my first time driving out 454 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 3: to the new Denver International Airport, which might as well 455 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 3: be in Kansas. 456 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 2: It's so far away, it's accurate. 457 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 3: And so the last two people to get on the 458 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 3: plane were myself and this guy. And I sat down 459 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 3: in the window seat and he said, would you like 460 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 3: me to put your bag up above? British accent strong 461 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 3: moves A strong move, Yeah, accent accents are helpful. No 462 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 3: wedding ring handsome. And he had a book called The 463 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 3: Tailor of Panama by John McCarey. I said, oh, I said, 464 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 3: do you like that book? So we started talking about 465 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 3: books and for two and a half hours. We talked 466 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 3: for a long time. I remember asking him what do 467 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 3: people in Europe think about Bill Clinton? And he said 468 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 3: they think he's a clown. And I was like, oh, wow, 469 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 3: we're going to get along great. But then I remember 470 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 3: looking at the window and saying a prayer to God 471 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 3: that I know I asked you to help me find someone. 472 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 3: But he's much older than me, he lives in England. 473 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 3: My career is on the right track. I didn't think 474 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 3: I would meet somebody on an airplane, but I couldn't eat, sleep, drink, 475 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 3: concentrate anything after I met him, and about six weeks 476 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 3: later we had our first date when he was back 477 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 3: in the States in New Orleans, and six months later 478 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 3: I moved to England. Twenty eight years ago. 479 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: Wow, what was the reaction when you told people I'm 480 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 1: just kind of curious, Hey, I'm going to move to England. 481 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: I met a guy on an airplane. 482 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 3: Okay, so you hit the nail on the head of 483 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 3: One of the reasons I wrote the book because one 484 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 3: of the things I worried about in my twenties was 485 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 3: how am I going to get a job, How will 486 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,479 Speaker 3: I succeed? How will I pay my bills? Then? How 487 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 3: am I going to meet somebody. How am I going 488 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 3: to then? What are people going to think about me? 489 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 3: For wanting to be with this man who is much 490 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 3: older than me, lives in England, and that I'm leaving 491 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 3: my job and career to go live in England and 492 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 3: who knows what's going to happen to me? Yeah, and 493 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 3: I worried myself to death. And this a woman of 494 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 3: a family friends that don't give up on this chance 495 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 3: to be loved and. 496 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: The data one superpower that I've learned is to not 497 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: care what people think who don't matter to you, you know. 498 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 3: But you know what it's so interesting is that we 499 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 3: have to learn this lesson over and over again because 500 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 3: your parents teach you that when you're young, or maybe 501 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 3: you learn it in Sunday school or from a teacher 502 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 3: or from other friends. And all of these young people 503 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: are always thinking about what others are thinking about them 504 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 3: and how they're being judged. And what I remind them 505 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,479 Speaker 3: is that actually we all just think about ourselves all 506 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 3: the time. Somebody has time to think about you. 507 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: And by the way, especially in a social media age, 508 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: people are even more obsessed about how they're being perceived 509 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 1: than they would have been in the past. 510 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 2: Quickly. 511 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: Wait, can I ask her a question that, Dana, do 512 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 1: you think that?

I have a title 566 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 1: in mind for him, and I think some of you 567 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: are really going to like it.
