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 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Thursday edition of The Clay Travis and 3 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,879 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show gets going right now, everybody, we are 4 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: set to hit not this show, but the country. Well, then, 5 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 1: I guess all of us thirty one trillion dollars in 6 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 1: debts today, thirty one trillion with the tea. We will 7 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: discuss this because I remember when half that amount was 8 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: something that was really upsetting people about the future of 9 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 1: the country, the intergenerational theft, the economic damage that would 10 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: come from paying off the debt itself. We'll discuss that also. 11 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: Alec Baldwin, the actor, is in the midst of getting charge. 12 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: He has been charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter. 13 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: Remember that shooting on the set of the movie Rust. 14 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: It was an accidental shooting. Everyone knew that from the beginning, 15 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: but there must be an element of recklessness. After the 16 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 1: investigation finished here they must have found something because they 17 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: have charged him with two counts of involuntary manslaughter. We 18 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: also have Alex Barrenson joining us in the second hours. 19 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: He's made some very bold statements on this show before Clay, 20 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: and he's been ahead of some issues that now we 21 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,479 Speaker 1: know he was correct, but he's been on the forefront 22 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: of some saying some things that you were just supposedly 23 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: not allowed to say. I think today is going to 24 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: be one of those days again where he's going to 25 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: say something, right, He's gonna say something where even with 26 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: the situation now, which is the vaccines one hundred percent 27 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: do not stop the spread, one hundred percent do not 28 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: last very long, are nowhere near as effective as we 29 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: were told, He's going to add something else onto that 30 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: list today in the second hour of the show, we're 31 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: gonna be talking Alex. Yeah. And I think for people 32 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: out there who are listeners that remember this, one of 33 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: the first in studio guests we had where we were 34 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: both there, if I remember correctly, Buck was like July 35 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: or August of twenty one, right soon after we took 36 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: over the show, Alex came on with us, I think 37 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: it was July, and he said, the COVID shots don't 38 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: prevent or stop spread, and this is going to be 39 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,679 Speaker 1: a major issue. And at that point in time, both 40 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 1: you and I we were way out in front of 41 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: what the public discussion was because we were still having 42 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: You remember back in the day when everybody was like, 43 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: this is gonna be the hot back summer. Everybody's making 44 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,959 Speaker 1: up for the fact that they didn't go out and 45 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: didn't get to have an amazing time, and we said, 46 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: wait a minute. The data from Israel, the data from England, 47 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: it's starting to reflect that people are still getting and 48 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: spreading COVID even after they've gotten double boosted. And he 49 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: ended up being a one hundred percent right about all that. 50 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: But that's when he got blocked and banned from being 51 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: able to be on Twitter because he was so far 52 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: in advance of what the public discussion was. I think 53 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: he's there again, and I think our show has been 54 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: there as it pertains not just to the COVID shot 55 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: being sort of worthless, but maybe actually causing problems which 56 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: were to say, it, yes, dangerous for some people, that 57 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: that's what that's what he's going to claim based on 58 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: data that he's seen. He's already got a sub stack 59 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: out about it. We're gonna let Alex make the claim. 60 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: It would be malpractice for us at this point not 61 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: to give Alex Barnson the platform to at least make 62 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: the case, considering on this show he has made the case, 63 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: so to speak in the past when he was told 64 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: it was absolutely reckless, absolutely wrong, and he was right. 65 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: And he told this audience things that were true before 66 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: other people were hearing them across the country. So that'll 67 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: be in the second hour. But Clay, there's a few 68 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: things coming together here, and I go. We talked about 69 00:03:55,040 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: the NHL controversy of wearing the gay Pride jersey, right, 70 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: one player wouldn't do it. That's part of an agenda, 71 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: and we'll get to that, But first I wanted to 72 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: look at another part of the LGBTQ plus activist agenda. 73 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 1: This is one of those things where I saw the 74 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: story on Twitter and I initially thought to myself, you know, 75 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: you know you have that that little quick gut check 76 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: moment You're like, is this a parody? You know, you 77 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: see a news story you go are they are they 78 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: really doing this? Because people get caught on that, right 79 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: they oh, look at this, and there's some very effective 80 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: parody accounts out there, But no, this was real. This 81 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 1: is a real story. And in Fox News reporting on 82 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: it now among many others, that Facebook is going to 83 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: allow pictures of breasts. Just so everyone is clear, you 84 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: are not allowed to have breast photos on Facebook, right, 85 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: so you can't have you topless well yeah, but even 86 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: topless like bottom nudity definitely not allowed to But you 87 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: can't show boom as a woman. There you go, you're joining. Yeah, 88 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: you can't show nipple to be specific, on Instagram or Facebook. 89 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: And by the way, I'll just say this, there are 90 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 1: some outfits that appear to defy physics to me when 91 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: I see some of these Instagram influencers and their ability 92 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: to not show a nipple. I don't know how these 93 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 1: tops work, but that is the rule. Right if you're 94 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: a woman, you cannot have a topless photo up now. 95 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 1: They'll go to the edges of the extremes of gravity 96 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: to somehow that take you right right up to the edge, 97 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: but they haven't allow of it. I saw this headline too, 98 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: and I couldn't believe it. So Facebook is now allowing 99 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: naked breasts if you are trans or claim to be 100 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: non binary, but not for cisgender women as in women. 101 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: So I want I understand, just just bear with me, 102 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: everybody right now, Facebook will if you're a you know, 103 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: if you're a if you're a bikini modeler, you're somebody 104 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: who's just very comfortable with her body for whatever reason. Yeah, 105 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: and you want to take a photo at a topless beach, 106 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 1: Facebook will shut that down, strike down your account. But 107 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: if you are a if you are a trans woman 108 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: who has had I guess I'm trying to make sure. 109 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: I guess. I don't even really understand if the boobs 110 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: are gone. So you're a woman that has become a 111 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: trans man and there's no boobs, but there's the two. 112 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: There's like the scars or whatever that are there. Because 113 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: I've seen that on Twitter, people have been sharing these photos. 114 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: By the way, these surgeries are, the more that comes 115 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: out about it, there's a really it's deeply depressing when 116 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: you find out the pain, the long term complications. These 117 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: are not surgeries that healthy people should be having. Put 118 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: that aside, certainly not children, teenagers, but Clay. So, now, 119 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: if you're a trans man, a woman who has had 120 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: breast removal surgery, you are allowed to show your chest. 121 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: I guess because they're treating you like a man. Right, 122 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: That's that's one level of this. Am I getting that one? Right? 123 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: I saw the headline and I literally like there's people 124 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: out there whose minds are like I feel like I'm 125 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: an a logic pretzel trying to figure all this out. Um, 126 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: So baseline rule, women are owned topless on Facebook or Instagram, 127 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: all right, that's the that's the number one rule. And 128 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: men out there who have been trying to get a 129 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: Playboy magazine since the nineteen forties, they understand there is 130 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: a desire to see men women topless. That's not allowed. 131 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,559 Speaker 1: All right, So baseline rule. But if a woman has 132 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: her breast removed and decides to identify as a man, 133 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: then theoretically topless photos would be allowed because the boobs 134 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: would technically be removed. I guess is this the ideas 135 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: that's your basically male like you can show men topless obviously. Um, 136 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: it's funny to think how much different our society would 137 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: be if men were not allowed to be topless too. Like. 138 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: I want to be clear though, because that you know. 139 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: So now, if you are a biological male who has 140 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: a breast augmentation surgery, which a lot of trans individuals 141 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: do to create the appearance of breast, so that's not allowed. 142 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: But if you're transition I assume. But if you're transitioning 143 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: female to male and have the top surgery is what 144 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: they call it, that's allowed. Now under Facebook. But the 145 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: part of it that I don't understand is if you 146 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: are non binary, then it is also allowed. So I 147 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: have to assume that means if you're a female who 148 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: just claims non binary status, you are allowed to show 149 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: female breasts, even though they will be visible as female breasts. 150 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: And I'm now my brain is exhausted. I'm not I 151 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: gotta tell you. That's that's the one. So what we're 152 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: basically getting to is you can go tople period. Right, 153 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: that would be the solution that would apply no matter what. 154 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: And I'm in fact reached. You're not allowed to go topless, right, 155 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: that's right, but healthy female boobs are banned. Clay, you 156 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: should be furious about that. Oh well then that I 157 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: am fear. What I'm saying is Facebook's new policy dece 158 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: needs to be everybody can go topless. Well, that's what 159 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: I think. I mean. That would actually that's what that 160 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: That's where we're maybe I had to do it and 161 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: this is the first time, but yeah, I'm I'm outraged. 162 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: I am in favor of nipples being able to be 163 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: exposed for adults. Now this gets into the complicated fashion here, right, 164 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: I just I don't even understand what's going on in 165 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: the world. I feel like maybe you're the youthful millennial 166 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: you need to. I feel like everything is just crazy 167 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: and I'm only forty three. I can't imagine for the 168 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: people out there that are listening to us right now, 169 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: buck that are seventy three years old, Like the whole 170 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: concept of gender non buy Like, how do you just 171 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: get to decide that you're neither a boy nor a girl? 172 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: Like how what world have we created where you can 173 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: just be like, yeah, I'm you know, I don't really 174 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,839 Speaker 1: feel like a boy or a girl. I'm both. Well, 175 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: that's not I don't understand how that's possible. Well, I 176 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,959 Speaker 1: also want to be clear that what this shows you 177 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: is that it's not about you know. It starts out with, Hey, 178 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: let's just all be cool to each other and let's 179 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: be accepting. Now it's you actually are going to be 180 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: held to this standard that is an unworkable and bizarre standard. 181 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: This is kind of like when someone gets upset when 182 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: they're mispronound or misgendered. Yeah, okay, well, we're all operating 183 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: on certain basic understandings of what genders are here, and 184 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: if you're going to mess around with that, It shouldn't 185 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: be on people to have to necessarily understand what land 186 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: of make believe you're choosing to live in. But that's 187 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: where this goes. There are actual policy decisions that come 188 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: from this, and you have to actually be a part. 189 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: You have to be a part of the nonsense. Yes, yes, 190 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: I mean and this is where and maybe we can 191 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: get into this at the bottom of the hour because 192 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 1: I think it's such an interesting conversation. Uh, and and 193 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: maybe even continue it throughout the course of the show. 194 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: We need to play the audio for you because this 195 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: is this is a real deal. We have moved from 196 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: live and let live. I think most people in America 197 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: buck are very comfortable with the concept of live and 198 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: let live as it pertains to a Conservatives are conservatives 199 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: are Democrats are absolutely not comfortable with live and let live. 200 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: They've all been brenwashed into you can you can never 201 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 1: live and let live. Actually there, you know that that 202 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: was the argument that they initially made the gay They lied, Yeah, 203 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: they lied. Yes, The initial argument when it came to 204 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: gay lifestyle was, hey, if a consenting adult wants to 205 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: sleep with this person like you, let them make their choice. 206 00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: And now we have rapidly progressed to if you don't 207 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: celebrate the fact that someone is choosing to be a 208 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: and that's to me, ties in so well with this 209 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: audio that we're going to play for you, and we 210 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: come back of this NHL analyst and I'm not I'm 211 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 1: gonna be honest, Buck, I'm a sports guy. I am 212 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: totally worthless when it comes to knowledge on the NHL. 213 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: I know that a lot of people out there are 214 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: big hockey fans who listen to us all over the country. 215 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: And I used to talk about this on my sports show, 216 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: like you're never going to tune in and be like, oh, 217 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: that was a supercive, perceptive point that was made by 218 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: me about anything hockey. But I will say this, Buck, 219 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: I've been stunned. I told you, and I think you 220 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 1: you now buy in because it's true that the sports 221 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: media is insanely woke. You've seen it now having done 222 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 1: a show with me, even for the sports media. The 223 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: things that the hockey media are saying blow my mind 224 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: with how woke it is. And when we play this 225 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: clip when we come back, I think many of you 226 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: are going to say, holy crap, this is where we 227 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: are right now. This is absolutely bonkers. I want to 228 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: switch gears for a moment here and talk about, well, 229 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: what many of you are asking about, which is what's 230 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: going on in this country when it comes to abortion. 231 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: After the Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade. Sadly, 232 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: abortion is continuing in many states at an alarming rate. 233 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: But there's one organization working hard to protect unborn babies 234 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: preborn pregnancy clinics. They continue to stand strong for the 235 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: unborn by providing free ultrasounds to mothers considering abortion. Once 236 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: a mother hears that heartbeat and sees the precious life 237 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: growing inside her, she's twice as likely to choose life. 238 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: But preborn doesn't stop there. They provide these mothers with counseling, diapers, 239 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: baby clothes, and assistance for up to two years, and 240 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: above all love that will help save lives.

But even 255 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: the response to this hockey player for the Philadelphia Flyers 256 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: who said, because of his religious beliefs that he wasn't 257 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: going to wear a Pride jersey, and then the NHL 258 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: media has lost its mind. The worst of them. And 259 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: I've watched all of these and I've been blown away 260 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: by them in general. The worst of them was this 261 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: guy and I think I'm pronouncing his name correctly, EJ Radik, 262 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: who is a NHL Network He is employed literally by 263 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: the league as a senior reporter to work on their 264 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: NHL Network television show. Yesterday, as part of the discussion 265 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: surrounding this player, Ivan Provarov, this analyst said if you 266 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: won't wear the Pride jersey, you should leave America, go 267 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: back to Russia and go fight in the Russia Ukraine War. 268 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: This was on video. We are playing the audio for 269 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: you right now. This was last night on the NHL Network. 270 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: Get on a plane any day he wants and go 271 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: back to a place where he feels more comfortable, take 272 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: less money, and get on with his life that way. 273 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: If it's that problematic for him, and he's been in 274 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: with America for a long time, he played in the 275 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: Western Hockey League, He's now been in Philadelphia for many years. 276 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: If this is that much for a prom for him 277 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: to maybe assimilate into his group of teammates and in 278 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: the community and here in this country, that's okay. Listen, 279 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: you can feel me what you want. But the beauty 280 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: is if it bothers you that much, there's always a 281 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: chance to leave, go back where you feel more comfortable. 282 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: I understand there's a conflict of sorts going on over there. 283 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: Maybe get involved, go fight against the Ukrainians. Go back 284 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: to your home country. If you won't wear the Pride jersey, Buck. 285 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: This is the league's official network, their senior reporter saying, 286 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: get out of the country if you won't wear a 287 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: Pride jersey. One thing that I think has become very clear, 288 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: and you know this better than most, is that the 289 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: journalists who cover sports and the audience that consume sports 290 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: are living on different planets most of the time. It's 291 00:16:56,120 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 1: you couldn't even begin to see crossover in their ideology 292 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: and beliefs, or even just a willingness to have the 293 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: journalists pretend that they care what the audience believes, thinks, 294 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: or feels on any of this stuff. The wokeness of 295 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 1: sports journalism is pretty amazing. It's pretty shocking, to be 296 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: honest with you, and that this guy would say something. 297 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: It's also it's just such a such a nasty thing 298 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: to say to anybody. Yeah, go go die in a 299 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: war if you won't wear the jersey you want you 300 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: to wear. But it goes to some underlying sentiment here. 301 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: It really does well for a country buck that was 302 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: founded on religious liberty, to not allow someone in our 303 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: country to embrace religious liberty and insist that they flee 304 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: the country and go fight in a war and basically 305 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: die fighting against Ukraine. I'm actually curious because for NHL 306 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: fans out there, this has become a thing like the 307 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: NHL has decided to go super woke. Have you guys 308 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 1: noticed it? What do you think? Eight hundred two eight 309 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,719 Speaker 1: two two eight eight two Buck, This is this is wild, 310 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: and I think it's really symptomatic of something much more 311 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: sick in the country.

I went to a hockey game, maybe 336 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: ten years ago, and I don't even remember who was playing. 337 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 1: A friend took me, a buddy of mine, but I 338 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: haven't seen hockey. In Wild's point, I don't know much 339 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: about hockey, but I do know about political agendas, and 340 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 1: clearly the media that is covering the NHL has one, 341 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: and I think increasingly this is something that you're going 342 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: to see spill out into other areas of Americans. It 343 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: already has, but it's going to be an ongoing thing, 344 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: whether it's announcing your pronouns in your email signature or 345 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: any number of things where you have to go along 346 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 1: with some of the agenda of LGBTQ plus activism. It 347 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 1: isn't amazing even that I can rattle off the acronym 348 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 1: with that specause we hear it all the time. Yeah, 349 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: and they add to it, but we still this is 350 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 1: how this all goes. Here's a Canadian journalist and we 351 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 1: just had this one NHL Network senior reporter talk about 352 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: how this Russian player should go back and fight in 353 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: the Russia Ukraine war. Right, let me mention this too. 354 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: The guy's been in America since he was thirteen years old. 355 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: And I just want everybody out there listening to think, 356 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: if this war an African athlete, right, there's tons of 357 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: guys who were born in Africa that play, for instance, 358 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: in the NBA now a lot of guys who play 359 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: a variety of sports in the NFL too, that if 360 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 1: that athlete had refused to wear a gay Pride jersey 361 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: and this guy had come on and said go back 362 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: to Africa, he would never work in sports again. So 363 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 1: I just want everybody out there to think, when you 364 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: say go back to Russia and, by the way, fight 365 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 1: in a war and potentially get yourself killed against Ukraine, 366 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: a mad that he says go back to Africa and 367 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,120 Speaker 1: fight in one of your civil wars on your war 368 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 1: torn continent. If you won't wear a gay Pride jersey, 369 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: the guy would never work again. So I just want 370 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: everybody out there thinking, why is it okay for him 371 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: to say go back to Russia? And also buck if 372 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 1: this guy were Muslim and he were deciding to do it, 373 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: would this guy say go back to the Middle East? 374 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: We don't want your kind here in this country. If 375 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: you won't wear a gay Pride jersey because of your religion, 376 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: go back to that backwards country in the Middle East 377 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: where you came from. He would never work again either. 378 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: So just because he's Russian, why should the standard of 379 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: go back to your country not be applied the same 380 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: way that it would if it were Asia or Africa 381 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: or the Middle East. Just because he's a white Russian 382 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 1: guy doesn't mean that his perspective is any less valid 383 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 1: than theirs would be. Here is a Canadian journalist who 384 00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: also had a meltdown because this Flyers play or Provarov 385 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: would not wear a Pride jersey Play seventeen. I think 386 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: you find the Flyers a million dollars for this. I'm 387 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: not kidding. Figure this out and stop offending people on 388 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: nights where it's not about that, it's supposed to be 389 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: about inclusivity. Because what I heard last night was offensive 390 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: and didn't make any sense because, for instance, if that 391 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 1: was a military night, if anyone in Canada or in 392 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 1: the States on a military appreciation night wouldn't wear a 393 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: jersey pregame, do you have any idea the uproar that 394 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 1: would have happened on that Nothing scares me more than 395 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: any human being who says I'm not doing this because 396 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: of my religious beliefs, because when you looked in people's lives, 397 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 1: you normally say that publicly you'd throw up. But what 398 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: you saw, so don't don't give me that. First of all, 399 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: So this is a sports let me just I just 400 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: want this is where I started pulling my hair out 401 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: when I saw this happening everywhere. But just to reiterate, 402 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: this is a sports program, Like you put this on 403 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 1: because you're like, hey, I wonder if the Toronto Maple 404 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 1: Liefs or the Detroit Red Wings are and I'm just 405 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: taking I'm not an expert in hockey, are going to 406 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: be able to make a run over the next month. 407 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 1: And you hear this like it's not only that it's 408 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: being said, Buck, it's that the incongruity of where you're 409 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: hearing it. You're getting lectured from dudes who otherwise sit 410 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: around and tell you whether a guy deserves his contract 411 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: or not as a forward on a on a hockey team. Yes, 412 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: and but this is this is another instance of go 413 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: along with an agenda that has pushed very much by 414 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 1: the left, or else you're a horrible person who should 415 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: be fired from your job, canceled, ruined, and destroyed. And 416 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: we see how much the shift has occurred here from 417 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: let's all just be nice to each other, let's all 418 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: be polite, let's make sure that everyone is equal under 419 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 1: the law. To you better do what we say and 420 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 1: celebrate what we tell you to celebrate. As I said yesterday, 421 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to be told to celebrate anything. Yeah, 422 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: I don't want to be called about you would go 423 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: out there and you know where anything amga hat. I 424 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,479 Speaker 1: don't want to be told to go out there and 425 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: I have to put a pin. I'm not a flagpin guy, 426 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: for example. It's just it's not because I don't love 427 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: the flag. I love my country. I love the flag, 428 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 1: I love my country, but I'm just not a flagpin. Guy, Yeah, 429 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 1: I don't want to be told that I have to 430 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: wear a flagpin, like you shouldn't have to wear the ribbon, 431 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: as we all know from Seinfeld. Yeah, and buck his 432 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: analogy there that first of all, a couple of the 433 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: different things were flawed. One, if you know some of 434 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: the things in the background of these people with religion, 435 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: like people who are religious are imperfect. That is why 436 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,360 Speaker 1: many people are religious. Right. This idea that if you 437 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: have any skeletons in your closet, or if you do 438 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: things in your life that are not living up to 439 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: the ideals of religion, you don't have any basis to 440 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: embrace a religion is fundamentally the antithesis of why many 441 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: people do, in fact embrace religion. So that's a ridiculous argument. 442 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: But he then said, oh, well he would wear a 443 00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: military jersey that salutes the troops. Well, that's what you do, right, 444 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: Like the whole concept of a jersey is you wear 445 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: the jersey of something that you support. Right, So, like 446 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 1: I am a fan of the Tennessee Titans. Unfortunately, I 447 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: would not wear a jersey of the Houston Texans because 448 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: they're a different team, right, Like you wear the jersey 449 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: of what you support and if and I'm maybe not 450 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 1: everybody would agree with me. But I was talking about 451 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: this earlier on one of our OutKick programs. Buck. There 452 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: used to be a ton of Quakers in Pennsylvania, right, 453 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: Like Benjamin Franklin I believe was a Quaker. It's a 454 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: religious faith that is non violent in nature. I'm not 455 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: sure how many Quakers there still are, but they would 456 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: get religious exemptions because they refuse to fight in all wars. 457 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 1: Right if this guy Proverov was instead of Russian Orthodox, 458 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: if he wore a Quaker and he came out and said, hey, 459 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: I understand military are important to many different people, but 460 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: because I'm a Quaker, my religion doesn't allow me to 461 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: support military. And he said, I'm not going to wear 462 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: a military label on my jersey. As a result, I 463 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: can't speak for everyone, but if he explained that, I 464 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: might not agree with it, but I wouldn't be like, oh, 465 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 1: this guy has to leave the country. I'd be like, well, 466 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: that's his religious beliefs. People have different religious beliefs. That's 467 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: why we were founded as a country for religious just 468 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 1: want to know so if if there's a decision that's 469 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: made that everyone has to everyone has to in some 470 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: act of solidarity with you know, Trent with with transgender youth. 471 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: You have to wear something, right, you have to or 472 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: you have to don some kind of um, you know, 473 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: emblem or symbol of that. A lot of people have 474 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 1: issues with the whole notion of kids being told that 475 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: they're tran So do you have to go along with 476 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: that or your horle By the way, the answer that 477 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 1: Democrats and the left would give, including Biden, all if 478 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 1: the White House is yes, here's paying someone into a 479 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 1: corner that they can't answer. Buck. And this is one 480 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 1: for all of you out there. What if the Philadelphia 481 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: Flyers had decided that they wanted to have a Christian 482 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: faith knight and everyone had to wear a jersey that 483 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 1: had a gigantic cross on it. Yep, they would never 484 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: say this guy who said go back to Russia. If 485 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 1: a player said, hey, I understand some people are Christian, 486 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: I don't feel comfortable wearing a cross because my religious 487 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: faiths are different, I would say, you know, we're a 488 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: multi plural society. I understand people who are Christian. I 489 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: respect that choice. This guy wouldn't say. He would actually 490 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: say that the player who refused to wear the cross 491 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: was a hero. He'd be like, well, this is what 492 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: you have to do. You can't stand up forced enforced 493 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: religion would be unacceptable to him. Well, this is a religion, right, 494 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: That's what people haven't realized. Wokeism is a religion, and 495 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: this is a form of genuflecting before that altar is 496 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 1: wearing this gay pride. Absolutely, absolutely true. And it's funny 497 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 1: too because he says, you know, can you imagine if 498 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: you didn't do military appreciation night? Colin Kaepernick became some 499 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: kind of international civil rights superstar Nike, you know, headlining, 500 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: multi multi millionaire on top of what the NFL had 501 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: already paid him more money you'd ever made before in 502 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: his life, because he did something that obviously was meant 503 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: to antagonize people who support the troops in the flag, 504 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: even though it's about you know, injustice or police or 505 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 1: racism or whatever. We all know what it was about. Okay, Yes, 506 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: that's why he did it when it was the national anthem. 507 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: So this notion like, oh, could you imagine, Yeah, the 508 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: left would actually cheer for someone who did that, which 509 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: is what they did, by the way, and we're not 510 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: even talking about somebody. It's not like he went out 511 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: there and tried to show some form of disrespect while 512 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: this was going on. He's just like, look, I don't 513 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: want to be a part of this. Good point by Ali, 514 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: our producer. If the Philadelphia Flyers came out and said, hey, 515 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: we're supporting police officers and so we've got some insignia 516 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: associated with the police on it, and a player refused 517 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: to wear that jersey, then this guy would praise it, right, 518 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: He'd be like, Oh, you shouldn't have to support military 519 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: or police if you don't want to. That's not a 520 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: part of your job. You're just a hockey player, I 521 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: mean that. And so you really paint him into a corner. 522 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: And what this is really about is content based discrimination. 523 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: And that's why that's why it's so important, I think, 524 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: to fire back against these guys. So we've got a 525 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: request out to both the NHL Network and to the 526 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: NHL itself because they employ this guy who said he 527 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: needs to go back to Russia, Like, what's your perspective, 528 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: this is your program that you put this out.

Who's been here for 531 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: third since he was thirteen because of his religious beliefs. 532 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: And we'll take some of your calls eight two eight 533 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: two two eight eight two phone number as always in 534 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: the meantime. Who knew two decades ago when smartphones became 535 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: all the rage, it would mean the end of the 536 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: family video camera.

Appreciate all of you hanging 558 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: out with us. Some good news. By the way, if 559 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: you're out there and you're saying this is crazy, this 560 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,479 Speaker 1: story we're talking about where a Russian player who's been 561 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: here since he was thirteen years old. By the way, 562 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: this is not somebody who just came over a couple 563 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: of years ago being told to go back to Russia 564 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: because he refuses to wear a Pride jersey by an 565 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: NHL network employee. And you also heard basically religion being 566 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: attacked by NHL media members. Ivan Provarov's jersey, his Philadelphia 567 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: Flyers jersey, has now sold out online, so Buck, one 568 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: way that people are clearly expressing their admiration and support 569 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: for this player's willingness to speak out is they have 570 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 1: gone and bought up his jersey, so that new story 571 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: just coming down as a result, and maybe some of 572 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: you out there had had thought of that idea as well. 573 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: Um and uh and and so this is really kind 574 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: of fascinating to think about. It's it's amazing play to 575 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: watch this continue to play out in this way, because 576 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: again I as somebody who had no familiarity with this, 577 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: like I didn't watch Sports Center on an ESPN guy, 578 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: um to see how really I think people take take opportunity. 579 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: They view it as an opportunity to inject the most 580 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 1: woke politics possible into every situation in sports, which to 581 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: me is is just crazy. I mean, you would think 582 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: it would be such a turn off for the audience, 583 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: such a problem for them, But I guess the corporate 584 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: interest that make the determination about who gets what show 585 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: and whatever in the sports world like this stuff. I 586 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: think this is also a sign you're right now. I 587 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: basically have built an entire business around this. The gap 588 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: between the media who covers the sport and the people 589 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: who are actual, actual fans. We've got a couple of 590 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: callers who want to react to this keeps growing more 591 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: and more seismic, and I think COVID really kind of 592 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: exacerbated it even more. But to the NHL, I mean, 593 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: we're talking about this yesterday. The average NFL fan, NHL 594 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 1: fan is a beer drinking, fifty two year old, twenty 595 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: five pound overweight guy who likes physical violence. Kind of right. 596 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: The NFL's a violent sport. They're not sitting around like 597 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 1: worried about whether men can get pregnant. It's crazy to them, 598 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: yet this is what their league is doing, and how 599 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: toned up it's become. Mike and Florida. You're a big 600 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: hockey fan, yes, but I have not watched in three 601 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: to four years because of this kind of vs. When 602 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: did this start in hockey? I'm I'm not that plugged 603 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: in admittedly, Like is this something that's been a gradual progression? 604 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: Like when you hear this stuff, I think it sounds 605 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: crazy because of the average hockey fan and how much 606 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,240 Speaker 1: I remember Buck they had Kid Rock played at at 607 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: an All Star game, and like the hockey media was 608 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: furious that Kid Rock was playing, and I was like, 609 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 1: Kid Rocks kind of the baseline of the average hockey 610 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: fan makes total sense. Yeah, probably three to four years 611 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: ago hockey started changing, and you know, of course, then 612 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: you go into rules and they start going towards high 613 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: offense like everybody else to meet ruined the sport. But 614 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: this kind of stuff here to where they're pushing their 615 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: agenda on you and what people aren't really paying attention to. 616 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: And what this all boils down to is this is 617 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: anti hate speech laws that they are going to try 618 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: to shove on Americans. Okay, that's what this all boils 619 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: down to. They're talking about it at the World Economic 620 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: Forum right now as we sit here and try to 621 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: have a normal conversation. They're talking about him lamenting anti hate. Yeah, 622 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: it's the it's the whole concept buck as we have 623 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,240 Speaker 1: talked about, and I think this is part and parcel 624 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 1: of it. Words as violence, and so they're trying to 625 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: restrict what words can be used under the guise that 626 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: it's the equivalent of a physical act of violence. Well, 627 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 1: they want to be able to control what you say. 628 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: Beyond just the d platforming and the removal of your 629 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: of your ability, they want to punish, right, that's the 630 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: next step. It's one thing to say I'll take away 631 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 1: your Twitter account or i'll shadow ban you for saying something. 632 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: But what the Democrat left and really the global elites, 633 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: as you see, and COVID was a huge example of this. 634 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: What they want is the ability to make you pay 635 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: if you say the things that they don't like, right 636 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: to go beyond even just make it harder for you 637 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: to say it or have your message be heard, so 638 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: there's punishment attached to it. And and that's why you know, 639 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: you see, there are a lot of people on the left, 640 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: There are a lot of Democrats who are of the 641 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: mind that hate speech is not protected under the First Amendment. Yes, 642 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 1: this is something they say all the time, to which 643 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 1: you say, no, actually it is. It actually is, but 644 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: they say no, no, it's not. And also this begs 645 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 1: the incredibly important question how do you define hate speech? 646 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 1: Which is insanely difficult to do in a intelligent manner. 647 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: By the way, we've got speaking of intelligent manner, we 648 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: tease this a little bit earlier. Alex Barrington's going to 649 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 1: join us at the top of the hour here when 650 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: we come back, and he's going to share what I think, 651 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 1: frankly you as well, Buck is potentially chilling news and 652 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 1: data about the COVID shot and its impact and where 653 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: we go from here. And we're gonna be ahead of 654 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 1: the curve, probably get some criticism, but this an important conversation. 655 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to Alex about it. You're gonna 656 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: want to hear it. Stuff that everybody needs to know 657 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,919 Speaker 1: about when it comes to this vaccine.
