1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome Man Now number two Friday edition 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,879 Speaker 1: Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. Buck remains on his honeymoon, 4 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 1: will be back next week. In the meantime, we have 5 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: had breaking news as another member of the Republican Party 6 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: has entered into the race. She is Nicky Hailey, former 7 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,280 Speaker 1: governor of South Carolina, former US Ambassador to the United 8 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: Nations under Donald Trump. She joins US now, and I 9 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 1: have to say, I feel like you're in your prime? 10 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: Am I crazy? Or is that? Or is that a valid, 11 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: valid assignation there? You are a very smart man, Yes, 12 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: I am. And I will tell you. You know, Don 13 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 1: Lemon made a name for himself because I think he 14 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: showed why maybe sexist male anchors on CNN need mental 15 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: competency tests too. So I want to dive into that 16 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: a little bit. I know there's obviously a ton that 17 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: we can we can go into. But where were you 18 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: when you heard that Don Lemon on CNN had said 19 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 1: that you were outside of your prime because you weren't 20 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,759 Speaker 1: in your twenties and thirties and forties, as he had 21 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,479 Speaker 1: googled and did you immediately just think I did, because 22 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 1: when we played this clip, I was like, this is 23 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: the greatest gift that CNN could have given Nicky Haley 24 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: to have someone that dumb say, someone that idiot, say 25 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: something that idiotic. It just felt like they were trying 26 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: to help your candidacy. Almost. Look, I had just gotten 27 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: to New Hampshire, and I'll tell you this, I was 28 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: not surprised if you saw Whoopie Goldberg hit me the 29 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: day before. I have senservative minority female would be is 30 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: not a Democrat. They just can't take it, and they 31 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: have pushed back on me because they know I pull 32 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: in independence, they know I pull in suburban women, they 33 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: know I pull in minorities, and they know what I 34 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: say is right and true, and so they immediately start attacking. 35 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: This won't be the first or the last. It didn't 36 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: phase me at all because there will be more. And 37 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: you know, it's funny how liberals say they're pro women, 38 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: but then you hear sexist remarks like this. It's funny 39 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: how liberals say, you know that Republicans are the ones 40 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: that are racist, but they're the ones that are quick 41 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: to have racist comments about me. But you even when 42 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: I became governor in South Carolina. It was a liberal 43 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: Democrat that said, she's not a minority, She's just a 44 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: conservative with a tan. I mean, so this is nothing new. 45 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: It rolls off my back. Their heads are exploding, and 46 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: that's okay. It shows the threat that I am and 47 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: I'll take it. For people who aren't familiar with your story, 48 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 1: take us into growing up in South Carolina, what that 49 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: was like, what your unique experience was. You say, you're 50 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: a brown girl in a white and black state, which 51 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: you know, I think a lot of people have not 52 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: experienced it. Although there are increasing Asian populations all over 53 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: the Southeast in the early seventies, that wasn't necessarily the 54 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: case for you. What that experienced like. You know, I 55 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: grew up in a rural town in South Carolina, population 56 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred two. Stuff lights. You couldn't think about 57 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: doing something wrong without telling your mom. But we were 58 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: the only Indian family, and we weren't white enough to 59 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: be white, we weren't black enough to be black. Times 60 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: were hard. They didn't know who we were, what we 61 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: were or while we were there. And when I would 62 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: get teased on the playground, my mom would always say 63 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: Your job is not to show them how you're different. 64 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: Your job is to show them how you're similar. And 65 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: you know, even though they didn't know who were, what 66 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: we were or while we were there, my parents knew 67 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: because my parents knew that I had been born in 68 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: the best country in the world, and they knew that 69 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: this country was an opportunity for their children to have 70 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: a better life than they did. And so they always 71 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: told my brothers, my sister, and me every day that 72 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: even on our worst day, we are blessed to live 73 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: in America. Grew up that same state that didn't understand 74 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: us grew to elect me the first minority female governor 75 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: in America. And it goes to show that, you know, 76 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: when these liberals say that America's rotten and that America 77 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: is no good and then America's racist, I am proof 78 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 1: of all of that that it's not. And so you know, 79 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: I go ahead, please, no, no, I was just gonna say, 80 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: I think that's well said. And to your point, this 81 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: is a really hard thing for Democrats to respond to. 82 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: But if America is so fundamentally racist, how come so 83 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: many minorities are literally willing to die to get here? 84 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: That that's incongruous, right, And it is a really difficult 85 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: question for them to answer, and they don't seem to 86 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: be able to do it. And that's why I think, frankly, 87 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: they're so threatened by your rise in the Republican Party 88 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 1: in general because it attacks so many integral elements of 89 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: their narrative. Listen, we call them out. We call them 90 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: out because they think they can go push on people 91 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: what they want the narrative to be, and they can't. 92 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: I'm not going to let them do that. We are 93 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: Is America perfect? No? But the principles at the heart 94 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: of America are perfect? And so are we going to 95 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: have instances that are that are bad? Are we going 96 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: to have racist people out there? Yes? But is the 97 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: whole country racist? No. I have been around the world 98 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: and back, and let me tell you what I saw 99 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: at the United Nations is America is still the standard. 100 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: When we speak, the world listens what we do, the 101 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: world follows who we are, the world wants to be. 102 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: We're talking to go ahead. We you know, we have 103 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: to stop this national self loathing that's taking over our country. 104 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 1: And we have to start teaching our children what it 105 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: means to love America and to fight for because she's 106 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: worth fighting for. You made the decision to run for 107 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: president after first saying you wouldn't run if Donald Trump 108 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: was running. How hard was that decision for you to make? 109 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: Why did you change your mind? Well, when I first 110 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 1: said it, Biden had just taken office. That was before 111 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: we had the embarrassing fall in Afghanistan. It was before 112 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: we saw Biden follow all over himself to get back 113 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: in the Irandeal. It's before we saw record inflation. It's 114 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: before we saw our education just literally go to pieces 115 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: and all this woke stuff. But it was before we 116 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: lost the midterms. And so to me, it's one of 117 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: those things that when I look at this, it is 118 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: time to lead the status quo and the old issues 119 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: of the past. It's time to get rid of the 120 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: chaos and the divisiveness, and it's time to really focus 121 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: on what we need to do to fix America. I mean, 122 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: you've got inflation we haven't seen in a long time. 123 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: You've got DC that's spending like drunken sailors and we 124 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: need to put them on a diet. You've got the 125 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: fact that education pre COVID seventy percent of our kids 126 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: that are in eighth grade. We're not proficient in reading 127 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: or math. Now you add COVID to it, We've got 128 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: a serious problem on our and parents are worried about it. 129 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: You've got the fact that we've got crime on our streets. 130 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: We've got open borders like we've never seen. And when 131 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: Americans look up to the sky and they see a 132 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: Chinese spy balloon looking back at them, that is a 133 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: national embarrassment. And so for the sake of my kids, 134 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: one who's about to get married, and I see how 135 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: hard it is for them to buy a home, a 136 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: son who's in college, and I see what the Wolke 137 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: education is doing. I'm the wife of a combat veteran, 138 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: and I know what our military stresses are. I am 139 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: not going to wait for anyone else. It is time 140 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: for a new generation. It is time for new leadership. 141 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: Americans are tired, and Americans deserve better, and I'm going 142 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: to make sure they get it. You were in the 143 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: U n and so you're uniquely aware of America's place 144 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: in the geopolitical universe. When you heard that China was 145 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: sending a spy balloon over this country, and that Joe 146 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: Biden was not going to shoot it down. What was 147 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: your reaction? What would you have done if you were 148 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: in the Oval Office and had been informed as he 149 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: was about that Chinese by balloon. Biden is letting China 150 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: eat our lunch. But this is a thing. You can't 151 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: just blame Biden on this. Republicans and Democrats have thought 152 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: for too long that if we were nice to China's 153 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: they would want to be like us. That's narcissistic. China 154 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: does not want to be like us. They want to 155 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: be communists. We have to start changing the way we 156 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: deal with them. And that starts with the fact we 157 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: don't let the Chinese Communist Party buy any land in America, 158 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 1: especially when they're looking at land near military bases near 159 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: our most sensitive drone technology. We don't let China go 160 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: and fund our universities, and if our universities take Chinese money, 161 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: guess what, they're not going to get any American money. 162 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: We don't let the Chinese infiltrate our research and development. 163 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: We start calling them out for stealing intellectual property, and 164 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: we're not going to allow any balloons or anything else 165 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: to fly over. We're going to put them in their 166 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: place and tell them exactly what it is we expected them. 167 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: We need to start holding them accountable for what they 168 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: did with COVID, and we need to make sure that 169 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 1: everybody when they talk about the drug problem and everything 170 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: sentinels doing, Yes, it's the Mexican cartels that are moving it, 171 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: but who's sending it. It's China that's sending it. And 172 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: America has got to wake up and be smart to this, 173 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: and I'm going to make sure that happens. Have you 174 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: talked to Donald Trump since you officially announced, and what 175 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: kind of relationship do you expect that you will have 176 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: with him going forward. I called the I called President 177 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: Trump before I announced and had a great conversation with him. 178 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: He is a friend, He's someone who I was proud 179 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: to be part of his administration. He was the right 180 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: president at the right time. But I told him that 181 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: I thought that we had I told him all the 182 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: issues and the reasons that I thought it was important 183 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: to get in and I told him that we needed 184 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: a new generation, that we had to start looking forward 185 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: and not looking back. And we had a very good 186 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: conversation and he will continue to be my friend. Joe 187 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: Biden's going to be eighty two years old, potentially if 188 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: he runs. You mentioned the idea of cognitive tests. Do 189 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: you think he has the mental acuity to be president 190 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: of the United States right now, much less to potentially 191 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: run and be president until he's eighty six. Well, he's 192 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: given a lot of Americans reasons to question it when 193 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: you have that kind of fall in Afghanistan, when you 194 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: sit there and you watch this Chinese by Bloom, when 195 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: you hear him say that the economy is not that bad, 196 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,239 Speaker 1: when we're all feeling that we can afford our groceries 197 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: and we see how inflation has kicked in. He is 198 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: telling Americans what he wishes was the case, but he's 199 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 1: not telling Americans the truth, and that calls into question everything. 200 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: But look, it's not just about Joe Biden. You can 201 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: look at everybody in DC. I've never been in DC, 202 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 1: but you look at everybody in DC, and it is 203 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: the reason I think we need to have term limits. 204 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: It's the reason I think we need to have mental 205 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: competency tests for over the age of seventy five. And 206 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: it's the reason I think we need to light a 207 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: fire under every elected official in DC and tell them 208 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: it's time to stop talking about our issues and it's 209 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: time to start getting to work and solving the problems 210 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: that Americans want them to solve. Many people upon hearing 211 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: that you were running for president. We're talking to Nicki 212 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: Hayley said she's running to be vice president. How do 213 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: you respond to that question that idea? I don't play 214 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: for a second, And what I'll tell you is, I 215 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,719 Speaker 1: am running for president, and when the time is right, 216 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: I'm happy to let you know who my vice presidential 217 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: candidate will be. It's a good answer. When you saw 218 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: that Don Lemon, I want to circle back to that 219 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: for a moment. Do you think he should be fired 220 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: for comments like that? What should happen to him? He 221 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: wasn't on the show today. His boss has said if 222 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: he keeps making stupid comments like that, they'll be consequences. 223 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing that. By the way, what should happen to 224 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: Don Lemon for somebody like him making those kind of 225 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: comments in your mind? I don't care what happens to 226 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: Don Lemon? What I care about the hypocrisy of all 227 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: of this. You know here, Don Lemon didn't say that 228 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: about Hillary Clinton. He didn't say that about Kamway Harris, 229 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: he didn't say it about Elizabeth Warren and you know 230 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: the idea that they'll say it about a conservative minority female. 231 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: That's more of the issue, and it's more about than 232 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: just Don Lemon. It's will Be Goldberg and the women 233 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: on the view. It's what we see constantly across the 234 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: media all the time. It's the hypocrisy of everything we're watching. 235 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: It's the double standard of all of it. So you know, 236 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: you keep or you fire Don Lemon, that's not going 237 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: to make a difference. What we need to do is 238 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: make sure that we continue to call them out every 239 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: time we see it. And guess what all they do 240 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: is make me stronger and more determined to make sure 241 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: improve to them that they know what I know, which 242 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: is their sexist they have more racist tendencies than we do, 243 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: and that we're not going to buy it. We're not 244 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: going to do it. And the American people don't deserve 245 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: what they're dishing out, Nicky Haley. If people like what 246 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: they've heard here, how can they find out more about 247 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: your campaign and what should they do to indicate their 248 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: port Look, we've lost the last seven out of eight 249 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: popular votes for president. We need to start this movement 250 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: for a new generation for a new effort of going forward, 251 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: not looking back.

We 299 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: will be honoring the memory, legacy, and impact of Russia 300 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: Limbaugh during the course of this program, as two years 301 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: ago today he passed. I know that is still a 302 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: very difficult moment for many of you, and that many 303 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: of you, including both Buck and myself, miss Russia Limbaugh 304 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: every single day. We will have a very timely tribute 305 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: to him during the core of today's program. East Palestine, Ohio, 306 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: continues to grow into more and more of a calamity. 307 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: We talked with the congressman there on Wednesday. I thought 308 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: we had a really good discussion with him about the 309 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: absolute latest on the ground, But the response so far 310 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: definitely begs the question of what in the world is 311 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: the Biden administration doing. We will discuss Ron DeSantis has 312 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: been branded as the new Trump, even worse than Trump, 313 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: as we told you would likely be the case. And 314 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: there's some interesting data out on where people have moved 315 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: basically since COVID started, and I think it's incredibly telling. 316 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 1: But I wanted to start with a story that is 317 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: very much a positive that I bet you're not going 318 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: to hear anywhere else, probably in media today unless a 319 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: lot of people listen to this open and then they say, 320 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: oh wow, this is a big story. Now we're going 321 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: to cover it. So we're number one in Salt Lake City. 322 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: I love the state of Utah. Appreciate everybody out there 323 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: listening to us right now. It's a fabulous place. This weekend, 324 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 1: the NBA All Star Game is coming to Salt Lake City. 325 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: Congratulations to people in Utah getting to host a big 326 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 1: event like that where they love their jazz. It's the 327 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: only major pro sports franchise in the entire state of Utah. 328 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: What's interesting about this is there have been two bills 329 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: passed in the last year in Utah directly related to 330 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: transgender related issues. I agree with both of them, but 331 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: the state of Utah has passed a bill saying kids 332 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: in high school have to have to play against kids 333 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: on the birth certificate. In other words, if you are 334 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 1: born a boy in Utah, you compete against boys and 335 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: athletics for your entire high school career. If you are 336 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: born a girl, you compete against girl. This girls, this 337 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: shouldn't be wildly crazy, right. We have all sorts of 338 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: designations in sports, But it's this sign to keep a 339 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: boy from deciding that he identifies as a girl, and then, 340 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: thanks to boys being bigger, stronger, and faster than girls, 341 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 1: that boy going and playing in a girl's high school sport, dominating, 342 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: potentially winning a state championship. I think it's an eminently 343 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: reasonable bill. I think every state in the United States 344 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: should have passed this same bill. Many have, but not 345 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: surprisingly many left wing blue states have not, but Utah has. 346 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: So I agree with that bill. It was somewhat controversial, 347 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: it got a lot of attention. Also, I agree with 348 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: this other bill that Utah recently passed. Utah recently passed 349 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: a bill that I believe every state should also pass 350 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: if they haven't already, banning gender transition surgery for minors. 351 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,719 Speaker 1: This isn't really that radical of an idea. In many states, 352 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: for instance, you can't get a tattoo. If you can't 353 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: get a tattoo, why in the world, and when you're 354 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: under a teen, why in the world should you be 355 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: able to, for instance, have your breast removed because you 356 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: have decided that you are no longer a girl and 357 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: you are now a boy. That is mutilation. In my opinion, 358 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: it's certainly child abuse. If after the age of eighteen 359 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: you decide that you want to do that, as an adult, 360 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: maybe you make that decision. I don't think it's a 361 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: smart decision for young people to do, period, but that's 362 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: a choice that an adult can make. But banning that 363 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: sort of treatment for children doesn't seem to me ridiculous 364 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: at all. You shouldn't be able to get puberty blockers, 365 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: for instance, when you are fourteen years old, to try 366 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: and keep you from becoming a boy or a girl 367 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: as you go through puberty. There is much data out 368 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: there that suggest actually that if you get puberty blockers, 369 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: you are likely and later in life to have issue with, 370 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: for instance, brittle bones, because your bones as an adolescent 371 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 1: develop a tremendous amount of strength as you come through 372 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: puberty and become moved from a boy to a man. 373 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: Girl to a woman. These are very reasonable, rational, I 374 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,719 Speaker 1: think bills that should be passed into every state in 375 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: the Union. So congratulations to Utah for getting it done. 376 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: What's interesting about this, however, is it wasn't very long 377 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: ago that the NBA pulled its All Star Game, and 378 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: some of you will remember this, pulled its All Star 379 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: Game out of the state of North Carolina, out of 380 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: the city of Charlotte. And they did it because North 381 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 1: Carolina had passed a bill that said, you need to 382 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: use the bathroom of your gender. Now, how would you 383 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: enforce that bill? I wrote about it at the time. 384 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: It's not as if there is someone who is standing 385 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: outside of the bathroom doing genital checks to see whether 386 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 1: or not you're using the right bathroom. But the NBA 387 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen was so woke that they made the 388 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: decision to pull their All Star Game out of Charlotte 389 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: over this, and they release this statement. While we recognize 390 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: the NBA cannot choose the law in every city, state, 391 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: and country in which we do business, we do not 392 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: believe we can successfully host our All Star festivities in 393 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: Charlotte in the climate created by the bill was called 394 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: HB two. They said that they would, as a result, 395 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 1: move the All Star Game to a new site back 396 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen, and there were all sorts of comments 397 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: that were made about what a brave action that was 398 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 1: to undertake by the NBA. The reason why I want 399 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: to bring this up is sometimes we don't count our victories, 400 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: and sometimes those victories don't even get an ounce of 401 00:21:53,240 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: media attention. I haven't seen anyone writing and arguing the 402 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: NBA should pull its All Star Game out of Salt 403 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: Lake City over the two bills that were passed in 404 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: the state of Utah. And I would argue that those 405 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: two bills are far more extensive in terms of their impact, 406 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: certainly in the world of sports, since one directly involved 407 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: sports than the bathroom bill in the first place. So 408 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: what's going on here? Why in twenty seventeen was the 409 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: NBA so bill that exists in North Carolina. Remember all 410 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: that bill said was, Hey, you should use the bathroom 411 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: of your gender. If you're born a boy, go to 412 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,199 Speaker 1: the boys room. You're born a girl, go to the 413 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: girls room. Right, That's all it said. And there was 414 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: no mechanism really by which anybody was checking to see, oh, 415 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: what genitals do you have in order for you to 416 00:22:53,480 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: use the bathroom. So it was primarily just a statement of, hey, 417 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: we think gender is real. Right in the state of 418 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: North Carolina. That doesn't seem to me to be a 419 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: particularly offensive bill to be passed. It doesn't seem to 420 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: have some amazing amount of enforcement mechanism or anything like that. 421 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,199 Speaker 1: Yet the NBA pulled it's All Star game. So what 422 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: does it say now about how much the NBA is 423 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: in default, not publicly, but in quietly acknowledging that they 424 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: were totally wrong in that decision that they are showing 425 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: up in Salt Lake City in the same year were 426 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: two very restrictive bills that basically do the same thing, 427 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: if not more than, what was passed in North Carolina, 428 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: and they aren't even saying a word about it. They're 429 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: not protesting, they're not demanding that the bills be repealed. 430 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: They didn't threaten to pull the All Star Game out 431 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: of Utah over the fact that the bills might be passed. 432 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: No player, to my knowledge, has spoken out about this 433 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: at all. No owner, no commissioner, no one in the 434 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: NBA is even mentioning the laws that were passed in 435 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: Salt Lake City. Now again, I a hundred percent agree 436 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 1: with what Salt Lake City did, but don't mistake what's 437 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: going on here, because on Monday we had a conversation 438 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: where I said, look, what you have to recognize out 439 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: here is that many of you don't have an issue 440 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,120 Speaker 1: with sports. You have an issue with the media that 441 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: covers sports and some of the executives that make decisions 442 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: associated with sports. Those people are woke. Most athletes, by 443 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: and large are not woke because sports are the opposite 444 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: of woke. It's a meritocracy. Best man or best woman wins. 445 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: It's highly competitive, there is no equity, there is no equality. 446 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: The goal in sports is to be better than the 447 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: other person, to beat the team or individual that you 448 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: compete against, and athletes understand that. And this is make 449 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: no mistake, this is a major win. In fact, it's 450 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: such a major win that there's not even any media 451 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: that I'm aware of that have even written about this, 452 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: Not anybody in the entirety of this woke sports media. 453 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: They're all, I think, finally aware that the vast majority 454 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: of sports fans rejects this. And this is a default 455 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: acknowledgement for all of you listening in North Carolina. That 456 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: the NBA got it wrong when they pulled their All 457 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: Star Game out of Charlotte in the first place. Now, 458 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: part of this is hypocrisy, right. The NBA is fine 459 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: playing games in China, where they have actual concentration camps. 460 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: The NBA is fine going to the Middle East, where 461 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: you can be beheaded if you're gay, and playing games there. 462 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: So they're finally recognizing that as a global company, getting 463 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: involved in state law issues in a woke perspective is 464 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: awful for their brand and also extremely hypocritical. But it's 465 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 1: important sometimes to notice when we get these wins, the 466 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: media doesn't even acknowledge it. I bet every single one 467 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: of you, and we're number one in Salt Lake City. 468 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: Is this being covered in local Salt Lake City? I 469 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: know it's not being covered nationally. How many of you 470 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: even knew about this? How many of you were even 471 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 1: aware that the NBA is basically tucking its tail between 472 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: its legs and acknowledging that four or five years ago 473 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: they were completely wrong to have gone woke and pulled 474 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 1: their All Star Game out of Charlotte because they're rolling 475 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 1: into Salt Lake City, which has more restrictive laws directly 476 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: related to sports on the transgender issue, and they ain't 477 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 1: even saying a word to anybody. Sometimes we think we 478 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: are losing because we don't take the time to recognize 479 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 1: when we win, because the media buy in large doesn't 480 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: tell us when we win, because that requires the media 481 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: acknowledging that they were wrong in the first place. This 482 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: is a big win, I would argue, it's a monstrous 483 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: win for those of us out there who have been 484 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: fighting back against woke sports for years and years. And 485 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 1: the odds are most of you have never even heard 486 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 1: about this story and didn't even know what was going on. 487 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: Because our wins don't get put on the front page 488 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: of the paper. Sometimes they get buried to the extent 489 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: that we don't even know they happen. Open phone lines 490 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 1: eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two Friday 491 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: edition of the show. As always, wanted to start off 492 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: with something super positive there that again, I bet almost 493 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 1: none of you have even seen, which is pretty crazy 494 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: to think about.

Hope all is going well with you, 521 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: doctor McCarey. Want to dive right into it. NBC News, 522 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm going back in time has a 523 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: story up today. I don't know if you've seen it yet, 524 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: but I'm sure you're familiar with the idea saying, wait 525 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: for it, natural immune. He actually provided better protection than 526 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,239 Speaker 1: the COVID shot did. Again, I feel like we're going 527 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: back into a time warp. It's amazing how so many 528 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: things that you argued for for years are now being 529 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: acknowledged in the present day. What is your reaction when 530 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: you see stories like this coming out in twenty twenty three. Well, 531 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: NBC News has been hostile towards many of the ideas 532 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 1: that many of us have been putting out there against 533 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: the medical establishment. But I'm glad that NBC News is 534 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: finally catching up with the fact that in fourth thirty 535 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 1: BC the hnient play result of the natural immunity, and 536 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: it was well recognized that if after you had infection, 537 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: you were immune. So I'm glad they're finally getting up 538 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: to speed. When you look at now you see acknowledged 539 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: that there is, for instance, in twenty five to forty 540 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: four year olds, a thirty percent increase in heart attack deaths. 541 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: That is an age range where we typically do not 542 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: see people dying of heart attacks. That data is now acknowledged, 543 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 1: But there's an argument about what could be causing that 544 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: based on what you have seen. Do you think that 545 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: it could be connected to the COVID shots and the boosters, 546 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: or do you think it's a legacy of COVID. Do 547 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 1: you think maybe it's just people were super unhealthy because 548 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: of COVID and as a result, we're seeing the fallout 549 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: to what would you attribute what we know to be 550 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: a thirty percent increase in heart attack deaths for young people. Well, 551 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: first of all, if somebody is a part of a cult, 552 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: they're not going to listen to the data no matter 553 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: what we say. And I think that's most public health officials. 554 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,719 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter how much data, how many quality studies are 555 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: out there. It's a religion for them. They're not going 556 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: to leave their positions. But if we look at the data, 557 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: there's a lot of information that the vaccines cause myocardidis 558 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 1: and even that some have died from the vaccine induced myocarditis. 559 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: That's out there. I mean, the Swift study found that 560 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: almost three percent of people after the vaccine had some 561 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: minimal heart damage measured with a test called a troponin increase. 562 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: And in the original Fiser vaccine trial in the supplemental document, 563 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: six people died of heart attacks and two people died 564 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: in the placebo group. People in the vaccine arm died 565 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: of heart attack and two people died in the placebo group. 566 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: That was never explored. That was probably an early sign. 567 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: So if you were advising people right now, it's twenty 568 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: twenty three, I think most people have made the decision. 569 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: I'm not getting the COVID shot. I'm not going to 570 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: get a booster. I think that it's what the data 571 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: reflects for substantial majorities. Would what would you tell people 572 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: they should do at this point with COVID? Would you 573 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: just say, hey, you've probably had it multiple times, you 574 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: probably have natural immunity for both you, your kids, everybody 575 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,960 Speaker 1: else in your family. You're not based on your knowledge, 576 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: Does the COVID shot or boosters make much sense for 577 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: anyone at this point in time? I mean, it would 578 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: be hard to envision a subgroup that really benefits from it, clearly. 579 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: But if there is a group, I would say it's 580 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: high risk people who have not had COVID if those 581 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: people are still which would be a tiny number of 582 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: people probably right, I mean, because almost everybody's had COVID. 583 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: In particular, if you're high risk, you're probably more susceptible 584 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: to it because you're not in great health in the 585 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: first place. Exactly. Look, everyone's going to get COVID seven 586 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 1: or eight times in their life at least. I mean, 587 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: this thing's going to circulate. It's a seasonal virus. It 588 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: is joining the common cold family of coronaviruses. It has 589 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: been less severe. How do we know that China just 590 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: had COVID ripped through the entire population. And did they 591 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: see the massive run on hospitals and you know two 592 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: months crematorium weight list that we saw during the Wuhan outbreak. Note, 593 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: this is a less severe virus, doesn't mean somebody couldn't 594 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: get hurt from it. It just means it's in the 595 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: family of respiratory viruses that circulate. But I'll tell you what. 596 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: People are dying from, mental illness, substance abuse, being shut 597 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: out of school, wearing masks, and learning disabilities. So we're 598 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: seeing significant harm from the restrictions. And at this point, 599 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: we've just got to recognize that a lot of these 600 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: things didn't do anything, and the COVID boosters ruined a 601 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: lot of lives, so that took a toll on society. 602 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: Do you mentioned that you're basically a member of the 603 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: COVID cult at this point and the data doesn't really 604 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 1: move you to a large extent if you've convinced yourself 605 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 1: that it's the worst thing to ever happened in United 606 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: States and world history. Having said that, it feels to 607 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: me like we're seeing a pivot from Oh, all of 608 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: these things were justified, the lockdowns, the essential versus non 609 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: essential businesses, the arresting people on paddleboard, from a that 610 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: was all necessary to a well, we just didn't know 611 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: any better. I know you're not a historian, but what 612 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: do you think this looks like from the medical establishment 613 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: twenty years from now, forty years from now, as people 614 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: look back and the immediate impact and emotions of the 615 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 1: moment have vanished and you're looking at it in a 616 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: more analytical perspective. Well, I think one of the reasons. 617 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 1: History is written by the victors. They can tell their 618 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 1: own narrative. And right now the medical establishment is using 619 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: the inflated numbers on COVID. That is, people dying from 620 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: other things, but they happen to test positive for COVID 621 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: getting counted as a codath. That massively inflated number is 622 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 1: being used to tell a narrative that they believe in, 623 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: and that is that they prevented more deaths and that 624 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: we still need to take this seriously. You still see 625 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: schools that are universally masking. You still see the vaccine 626 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: mandate in places where the data is irrefutable that it 627 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: doesn't affect transmission, because I seen doesn't stop transmission, So 628 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 1: why do they have the mandates from place? I think 629 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 1: it's going to take years to pull this back. And 630 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: somebody was actually honest with me and one of these 631 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,399 Speaker 1: COVID cult members, and they actually said, you know, it's 632 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,240 Speaker 1: good to keep the masks on the kids in schools 633 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: while COVID levels are high, and then just keep them 634 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 1: on for an extra few years and then take them off. 635 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the kind of cult that we're dealing 636 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,839 Speaker 1: with here. I'm still so furious because we haven't seen. 637 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 1: We're talking doctor Marty McCarry, who has done phenomenal work. 638 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,720 Speaker 1: He's been on this show a lot. He has done 639 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: such a good job trying to fight public health battles 640 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: on behalf of sanity in what was certainly an insane 641 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:49,959 Speaker 1: world surrounding COVID. In terms of where we go now, 642 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 1: you made such a good point about China, everybody said, oh, 643 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: my goodness, you know, we use China as an example 644 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 1: doctor Fauci did of what the United States should do. 645 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: And then finally Chairman Z just said, this is a disaster. 646 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 1: The protests started even in China about lockdowns, and they 647 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: ended it, and all the people out there who said 648 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 1: it was going to be an unmitigated disaster basically had 649 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 1: to acknowledge that this thing swept through China. Everybody got it. 650 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: Most people were okay. And now there doesn't seem to 651 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,879 Speaker 1: really be any element of the lockdown universe that even 652 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 1: still has an adherence. Where do we go from here? Well, 653 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: it is amazing as you describe it, how China is 654 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: essentially abandoned the lockdown policy and we still defend it 655 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: here in the United States with the man. Yeah, it's true, 656 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 1: it's ironic. Look, I think public health officials need to 657 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: do a couple of things. One give an honest apology. 658 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: I mean, this new study that just came out in 659 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: the Lantis that you mentioned at the beginning, it's clearly 660 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: showing natural immunity and as effective, are better acknowledge it. 661 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: All those nurses that were fired, we need them back 662 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: at the hospital. We need them rehired with back pay. 663 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 1: And the soldiers and so many other people, teachers, So 664 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 1: they need to apologize, they need to rehire. They need 665 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: to just be honest about where we are today. And 666 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: I think we finally need the NIH to announce an 667 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: all out forever ban on gain a function research. It's 668 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: not that hard. Just once and for all come out 669 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:27,839 Speaker 1: and say no more Frankensteining viruses and juicing them up 670 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,959 Speaker 1: to make them more contagious. That should never happen ever 671 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: in the history of the world, in perpetuity with a 672 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: universal declaration. That is something where the US should be 673 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: taking a leadership position on. But no one is even 674 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: talking about it at the NIH, none of the medical establishment. 675 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: Why don't even bring it up? Are you optimistic as 676 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 1: you look towards Biden has said oh, we're finally ending 677 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: the emergency declaration in May. One of the things that 678 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 1: we were having a conversation I think this week, and 679 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: one of the possibility is it's so bad for Democrats 680 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: because they're supposed to be the party of science and 681 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: they ended up getting everything wrong that they're just going 682 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: to pretend this story never happened, right, and just try 683 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: to pretend that COVID never happened and just move right 684 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: on into twenty twenty four trying to make new arguments. 685 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 1: They may claim, oh, we beat COVID thanks to the 686 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: vaccine policies and everything else, but by and large, it 687 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: feels like they just want to pretend everything they argued, 688 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: the school lockdowns, this teachers Union's Randy Weingarten and all 689 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: those looney bend members, that it just didn't happen, right. 690 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: Like it's almost like they want to do the Men 691 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 1: in Black memory stick, if you remember that, where they 692 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,760 Speaker 1: can just erase everything and just pretend, okay, COVID didn't happen, 693 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 1: or they claim victory and just move right on. Do 694 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: you think that's kind of where we are? Well, Look, 695 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 1: I did see an article. I think it was in 696 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: the Atlantic, or it might have come from pharma or 697 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: the FDA. I can't even tell the difference anymore. But 698 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 1: it said, let's just give m this to all of 699 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 1: our public health officials. Oh yeah, I saw that. Remember, 700 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: let's just forget. I can. My faith teases me to forgive. 701 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 1: But there's been so much damage. They have not even 702 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: been honest about what actually happened, so I don't. It's 703 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,280 Speaker 1: it's a problem right now. It's a big, huge problem 704 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:22,839 Speaker 1: because we can still do a lot of repair, and 705 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,319 Speaker 1: we can still rewrite history to be honest. If we're honest. 706 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: Natural immunity beat COVID wasn't anything else. Wasn't our lockdowns 707 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 1: or arresting surfers in California. It was natural immunity. So 708 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 1: I wouldn't encourage someone to try to get the infection. 709 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: But let's be honest about what happened natural immunity beat covid. 710 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: Dr McCarry, you have been absolutely phenomenal. Make sure you 711 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 1: text me the next time you're here in my hometown 712 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 1: in Nashville. We need to go out and get a 713 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: drink and have a dinner. I appreciate all the work 714 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 1: that you have done over the years. Also on the 715 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal editorial page. I don't want to forget. 716 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 1: I don't want our audience to forget how much heat 717 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: you and others would take for sharing all of this information, 718 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 1: even though it was counter to the narrative of the time. 719 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: And I hope for people who write the histories and 720 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: the years to come that you will be one of 721 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: the heroes of the medical establishment. I certainly appreciate everything 722 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 1: you've done. Thanks so much, CLA. I appreciate you, no doubt. 723 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: He is Doctor Marty McCarey. Encourage you guys to go 724 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: follow him on Twitter and make sure that you follow 725 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: people who are actually truth tellers as opposed to frankly wires, 726 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: which far too many people in our medical establishment have 727 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: been over the past several years. I want to tell 728 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: you as we roll in here towards the end of 729 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: the third hour, got a couple of clips I want 730 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: to play for you from Joe Biden and the incredible 731 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 1: incompetence there.

Sure, it might help for 743 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: a few days, but it's just to start a preparation 744 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,479 Speaker 1: out there.

He's been on 775 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 1: his honeymoon with the Lovely Carry somewhere out in the 776 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 1: South Pacific. I don't even know how much he's been 777 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: checking his phone. I've tried not to send any emails, 778 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: any texts, tried to just allow him to vanish into 779 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: the awesomeness that is beautiful beach weather in the South Pacific. 780 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 1: But he will be back on Tuesday, and we'll be 781 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,240 Speaker 1: together for the next several weeks, and then on spring break. 782 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 1: I can't wait for this. I'm taking my family to Italy. 783 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 1: I've never been there. My wife is Italian, her family background, 784 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: she's never been. So I'll be out for a little 785 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: bit in March during spring break and Buckle manned the ship. 786 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 1: That's one of the good things about being a duo 787 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: is basically one of us is always going to be here. 788 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 1: And I haven't really talked a great deal. I don't 789 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 1: think either buck or I have on this show about 790 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 1: Rush's legacy and how we came to come together on 791 00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: this show. So I thought, on the two year anniversary 792 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: of Russia Limbaugh's death, I tell you a little bit 793 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 1: behind the scenes of how I ended up on this program. 794 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 1: So she doesn't get enough credit and she tries to 795 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 1: hide behind the scenes, but Julie Talbot, who is our boss, 796 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 1: at Premier and was Rush's boss at Premier Networks. Is 797 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 1: one of the most talented people to ever work in radio. 798 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 1: And she's probably blushing right now and she's like, oh, 799 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 1: my dear, what in the world. Don't talk about me? 800 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: She put buck an Eye together. But she also was 801 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,839 Speaker 1: instrumental in all of the success that Rush Limbaugh had 802 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: for many years as part of Premier and iHeart And 803 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: when Rush died, Julie came to me and she said, 804 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: no one's ever going to replace Rush. That's true, when 805 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: you are an iconic original, there is never going to 806 00:44:56,440 --> 00:45:01,280 Speaker 1: be a replacement. But she said, you've been doing sports 807 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: talker radio morning, blowing up all over the country from 808 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,360 Speaker 1: six to nine am Eastern. Some of you may be 809 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 1: listening to me now because you used to listen to 810 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: that show. And when sports shut down in March, April, 811 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: May and June of twenty twenty, there were literally no sports. 812 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 1: I came on every day and did three hours of 813 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: sports talker radio. To a large degree that was focused 814 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 1: on the fact that we had to return to normalcy 815 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 1: in this country. I didn't take a single day off 816 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 1: because I felt like there was so much chaos and 817 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 1: uncertainty out there that it was important for there to 818 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 1: be some consistency. And I know that a lot of 819 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: you still had to work, many of you out there 820 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 1: driving trucks right now, your actual essential workers. To me, 821 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 1: if you didn't have to work, that is a sign 822 00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 1: that your job in the grand scheme of things didn't 823 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: matter that much to many people. Your stock and grocery shelves, 824 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,720 Speaker 1: you had to work. You worked at a gas station, 825 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: you had to work. Many of you out there that 826 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: are the heartbeat of American commerce and keep this country 827 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:19,759 Speaker 1: running didn't have the luxury of going and hiding inside 828 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: of your apartments or homes and ordering food takeout delivery 829 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 1: and sitting around getting full paychecks watching Netflix while you 830 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:32,239 Speaker 1: lectured everybody else who was out there actually making sure 831 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 1: that the country kept running. Police, fireman. So many of 832 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 1: you out there had to keep working, and so I 833 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 1: kept doing my show, and something crazy happened. The number 834 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 1: of people listening skyrocketed. Wasn't a single sporting event going on. 835 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 1: There was nothing to react to, nobody to say, oh, 836 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,839 Speaker 1: my goodness, did you see that officiating call? This guy 837 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 1: has to be fired, this guy has to be hired. 838 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 1: Give this player a max contract, none of that was 839 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 1: going on. Numbers kept going up. Julie came to me 840 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: and she said, people don't want your sports opinion. They 841 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 1: want your opinion. And the impact that Rush had is 842 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 1: so massive that you can't say no to this opportunity 843 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 1: to be put alongside a buck sexton. I didn't seek 844 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: this job. I'm maybe a little bit unique in the 845 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: context of there's never been a job out there where 846 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 1: when I started writing and talking as a practicing attorney, 847 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 1: I never thought, oh my goodness, I hope one day 848 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 1: I can have this job or that job. I just 849 00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:43,360 Speaker 1: I never was trying to take over any job or 850 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 1: try to aspire to take any job. I just wanted 851 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,279 Speaker 1: to get better at writing radio and TV. And so 852 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 1: when this opportunity came, I spent a lot of time 853 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,759 Speaker 1: sitting around thinking about it. And you guys know that 854 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:57,880 Speaker 1: I love sports, and I fought hard to try to 855 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: make sports and a maror can culture look more like 856 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 1: sports because I believe in capitalism and the meritocracy and 857 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 1: the best man or best woman winning in competition in general, 858 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:13,280 Speaker 1: in the innate, extraordinary nature of American freedom in life. 859 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: And the more and more I thought about it as 860 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: a dad, things change, right, And I know many of 861 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 1: you out there who are parents and grandparents know what 862 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 1: I talk what I'm talking about. But you reach a 863 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 1: point in your life, and it's different for everybody where 864 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: you start thinking more about what the future is going 865 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 1: to be for your kids than what the present day 866 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 1: is for you. And that pivot happens at different ages 867 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:51,439 Speaker 1: for different people. But COVID was a massive alarm bell 868 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 1: for me where I looked around at my kids, who 869 00:48:55,760 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 1: are still all three young boys, and thought to myself, 870 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:08,840 Speaker 1: my goodness, what world are we leaving for them? Where 871 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 1: suddenly you have to worry not about tax policy. Right, 872 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 1: we can sit around and have reasoned arguments about what 873 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 1: the top one percent tax rate should be, and we 874 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 1: can have reasoned arguments about what percentage of our national 875 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 1: budget every year should be directed towards medicare and social 876 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 1: security and defense. But what we can argue about, and 877 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 1: what unfortunately has become an argument, is the innate goodness 878 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: of this country, end of the people here, end of 879 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,799 Speaker 1: the fact that this is the greatest country to ever 880 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,799 Speaker 1: exist in the history of the world. And when the 881 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:58,400 Speaker 1: argument shifts from all I think it should be a 882 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 1: forty two percent tax right think it should be a 883 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:06,360 Speaker 1: twenty eight percent tax on corporate profits or individual tax codes. 884 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 1: To America is a fundamentally awful, racist place, and therefore 885 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:16,680 Speaker 1: nothing in American history is legitimate or worth discussing or celebrating. 886 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: That's a big difference, because when you attack the foundation 887 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:28,319 Speaker 1: of American excellence, you're attempting to destroy the country, and 888 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:30,719 Speaker 1: you are no longer country was founded on. I was 889 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 1: thinking about that a lot when I decided to come 890 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 1: over here and start spending three hours every day with 891 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 1: you guys. Buck was already in this battle. But for me, 892 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,880 Speaker 1: I'd always been in the toy chest of life, sports, 893 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 1: things that people like, and I couldn't continue to see 894 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 1: the country that I loved denigrated and attacked and destroyed 895 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,840 Speaker 1: on a day to day basis by forces, frankly that 896 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:02,800 Speaker 1: I think are absolute lutely insane, And I certainly couldn't, 897 00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 1: in good faith, as a father of three, think to myself, 898 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: what are you gonna say when you're seventy five and 899 00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 1: you're a grandpa thirty years from now, if the country 900 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 1: continues on the course that it's on right now. That 901 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 1: you set around and talked about who the best quarterback 902 00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: was in the NFL, and that's your legacy that you 903 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 1: talked about whether Michael Jordan or Lebron James was better, 904 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,879 Speaker 1: and that's what you spent your time making arguments about. 905 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 1: I just couldn't do it anymore. And Julie Talbot, when 906 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:39,239 Speaker 1: she brought Buck an Eye together, said I didn't want 907 00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:42,799 Speaker 1: one person to sit behind the golden microphone because you'd 908 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:46,359 Speaker 1: immediately be compared to Rush, and that, no matter who 909 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:50,439 Speaker 1: you are, is a legacy it's very hard to even comprehend, 910 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 1: much less live up to. And so the show was 911 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 1: going to sound different, but the battles would be the same. 912 00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:01,879 Speaker 1: And two years after Rush's pass, as we started off 913 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:04,640 Speaker 1: this third hour, on this anniversary day that many of 914 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:08,240 Speaker 1: you are holding in your hearts, I thought, let's play 915 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 1: a clip that is particularly apropos, that is timeless, and 916 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 1: that speaks to the unique and brilliant freedoms of American 917 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 1: life and why this country that we all live in 918 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:29,319 Speaker 1: were so incredibly fortunate to be here. And that is 919 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:33,799 Speaker 1: why we picked this clip from November twenty eighth of 920 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:38,440 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven from Russia. Limbaugh talking about freedom 921 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 1: and the greatness of the United States, listen. The one 922 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 1: true and pure ideal this country was started with was 923 00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: the idea of freedom. It has been our north star 924 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:56,200 Speaker 1: for decades upon decades, over centuries. It is the vision 925 00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: that drove me into this country against all odds in 926 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,200 Speaker 1: the fifteen hundred, and it still does today. It's the 927 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,880 Speaker 1: reason they fought in the cold with no shoes with 928 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: Washington at Delaware. It is the Delaware rich the reason 929 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 1: we are the one society to get rid of slavery, 930 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:17,400 Speaker 1: or the first to do it. The Brits did a 931 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,359 Speaker 1: pretty good job of it as well. But the point 932 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 1: is freedom. Is you ever asked yourself, and I've asked 933 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,840 Speaker 1: you this before, how is it that in two hundred 934 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,160 Speaker 1: and sixty years, less than two hundred and sixty years, 935 00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 1: a population of three hundred million people has established the 936 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 1: single greatest, most powerful force for good nation in the 937 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: history of cibilization versus civilizations and societies and countries have 938 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:46,479 Speaker 1: been around thousands of years longer. They answer, in simple form, 939 00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:53,600 Speaker 1: is freedom. It is fundamental? So Well said on the 940 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:57,360 Speaker 1: two year anniversary of his passing, he will never be forgotten. 941 00:53:57,560 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 1: But what Buck and I are trying to do every 942 00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 1: single day is continue to fight the battles that Rush 943 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 1: would be fighting if he were still here, And hopefully 944 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: my thought is helping to pass that baton on to 945 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 1: the next generation, because I know every single day many 946 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:14,800 Speaker 1: of you out there who listen to Rush for thirty 947 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,720 Speaker 1: plus years, you might be in your sixties, seventies, eighties, 948 00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,799 Speaker 1: a year old now, And to the extent that I'm 949 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 1: forty three and troubled about what I'm seeing, I know 950 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 1: that many of you are even more troubled. Well, Buck 951 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:31,080 Speaker 1: and I are here to keep the fight going, and 952 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:34,359 Speaker 1: we hope that in the years to come, raising up 953 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:38,840 Speaker 1: a new generation of fighters who understand the importance and 954 00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 1: the legacy of American freedom and excellence that Rush has 955 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 1: bestowed upon us, that frankly, all of our forefathers have 956 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:52,520 Speaker 1: bestowed upon this entire country. When entrepreneurs established businesses to 957 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:56,160 Speaker 1: solve clear and obvious problems people encounter, you have to 958 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 1: give him credit for the vision. We're just talking about legacy, 959 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 1: about memory, about the importance of family. That all is 960 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 1: innately packed into your day to day existence. But how 961 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 1: easy can you share your family memories, whether it's on 962 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 1: a cam quarter, old slides, old pictures.

Do you worry about whether your kids 964 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:22,239 Speaker 1: and grandkids will understand what grandma and grandpa and great 965 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 1: grandma and grandpa went through and the story that they 966 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 1: bequeath to your family.
