1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: Bold, reverence, and occasionally random. The Sunday Hang with Playing

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: Buck podcast it starts now. Yesterday, Buck, I thought something

3
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: happened on the show that would not happen. Ever, now

4
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 1: it's gonna happen again. This may be even more crazy.

5
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: I am going to praise Joy behar who I've previously

6
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: called the dumbest woman appearing on any program daily in

7
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: America maybe in the world. Joy by Harbors on the

8
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 1: View yesterday, Buck, I said, WHOOPI Goldberg nailed it. I mean,

9
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: maybe maybe I'm gonna end up one of the chicks

10
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: on the View at this directory. You're gonna be on

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: the View, and Joy's gonna say you handsomer in person,

12
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 1: mister Travis. I mean, they might end up adding me

13
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: as a dude, just to have a dude on the View,

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 1: not just chicks. And uh, maybe I'd end up agreeing

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 1: with them because I don't know if you get to

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: call them chicks if you're on set with them. I'm

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: just throwing that out there. Is chicks an offensive term,

18
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: not to me, but I'm a dude. I mean it's interesting.

19
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: I remember when I was practicing law. I we had

20
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: a new attorney, new female attorney, and I said who's

21
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: the new girl? And they were like. One of the

22
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,839
Speaker 1: women partners was like, oh, you would never say who's

23
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: the new boy? And I was like, no, but I

24
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: would say who's the new guy. She was like, oh, yeah,

25
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: I guess that's right. But I mean, so this whole

26
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 1: idea of you know, what words can you use? I

27
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: don't think that chicks is is a defensive term. Certainly

28
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: not gonna not gonna call him babes. But joy Behart,

29
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: this has this happened to you ever? Buck? So Marjorie

30
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: Taylor Green was out to dinner, I think, and she

31
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: was confronted by someone who disagreed with her politically. Have

32
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: you had or been in any scene where you've seen

33
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: a situation like this happened wait to me or with

34
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: somebody you're sitting with. I've had it happened once, So

35
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: I will tell you I was very disappointed. Where I

36
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: lived in DC was also a place during the Trump

37
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: administration where there were some Trump White House officials that

38
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: bringing up because there were and I mean the most

39
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: blue haired, you know, nose ring wearing lunatic libs had

40
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: gathered right under my window. Yeah, and they were banging

41
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: drums and cow bells, and they're like, oh, like you

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: support like the white nationalist in the White House and

43
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 1: all this stuff. And there's a part of me that's like,

44
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: these people are super annoying. It's a Sunday I want

45
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: to sleep, But also a part of me that was like, oh,

46
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: moving up in the world, I gotta They were going

47
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: for Stephen Miller, and he lived on the other side

48
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: of the building, which is what was so unfair. He

49
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: never heard a peep from these lunatics, but I thought

50
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: they were there for me. Turned out not so much.

51
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: But no, this actually hasn't happened to me yet that

52
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: a lot of very nice people in our radio audience

53
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: come up and say wonderful things about us, and I

54
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: love them, but I haven't had the nasty then I had.

55
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: When I worked at CNN, I had a guy look

56
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: at me on the subway and he stared at me

57
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: and he said, I see you on CNN, says you

58
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: sound eloquent, but I hate everything you say. So that

59
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 1: was a little bit of a thing. What did you have?

60
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: What happened to you? I've had. I've been screamed at

61
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: twice while doing stand ups. Yeah, once last year, meaning

62
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. So I was at a Tennessee, Georgia game,

63
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: I think, or I don't remember. I was standing up

64
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: doing like a television hit, and in between the hits,

65
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: somebody screamed at me, I can't believe you're defending Kyle

66
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: Rittenhouse in any way. You're gonna go to hell in

67
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: a bunch of curse words. That was in Knoxville. And

68
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: then I was doing as he feels about himself, considering

69
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: Kyle Rittenhouse one hundred percent innocent and did nothing wrong.

70
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: But yeah, interesting, Yeah, I was right on that one.

71
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: And then actually, I don't even know that I mentioned

72
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: this to you. I was doing a stand up about

73
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: to do one before the Alabama Texas game in Austin

74
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: when you were you and your family were down there,

75
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: you and your brothers, and somebody came by was like,

76
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: I listened to your show, You're a horrible racist, blah

77
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, like a lot of curse words, and

78
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: I was like, appreciate you listening, and uh. And so

79
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: that's the only two times face to face that I've

80
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: ever had to face I forgetting. I went to a

81
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: black tie event in New York and there was a

82
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: line of protesters outside and a couple of them got

83
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: right in mind. I'm in a tuxedo, and a couple

84
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: of them got right in my face and they're like, they're, look,

85
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: you're not welcome here. We know who you are, and

86
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: I want to be like, not welcome. This is my city.

87
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: You're probably you probably just got off a bus from

88
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: someplace god knows where, Like what are you talking about,

89
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: but you're not welcome in New York of this whole thing.

90
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: And they were screaming in my face. The cops are

91
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: right there, so I think they also were hoping that I.

92
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: You know, this is these people are so tough. They

93
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: want to get right in your face. They were all nails.

94
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: I want to get right in your face and say

95
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: really aggressive things. And then the moment you like, do anything,

96
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: Oh my guys, yeah you tacked me and throw them

97
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: a chill. Yet, of course, so ninety nine point nine

98
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: percent of all things that I hear in public are positive,

99
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: But I did want to mention that and the idea

100
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: that you would confront someone in a restaurant were guardless

101
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: of their politics. And I say this to everybody out

102
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: there listening as well. Indefensible. You are not in the

103
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: right when you make this decision. So Marjorie Taylor Green

104
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: was confronted, and this is what Joy Behar on The

105
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: View had to say. Kildest woman Marjorie Taylor Green tweeted

106
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: that she was quote attacked quote unquote by a woman

107
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: in a restaurant on Monday night and was screamed at

108
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: by her adult son, not Marjorie's son, the woman's son

109
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: while she was sitting at a table with members of herself,

110
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: simply because she claims it was just because she has

111
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: political views that are different. So I have to say

112
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: I'm on Marjorie's side for this one, because I don't

113
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: believe that anybody should be going up to any of us,

114
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:48,119
Speaker 1: anybody in public and harassing us. Amen. Joy Behart nailed

115
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: they never have said it before on the show. She's

116
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 1: a hundred percent right. Hi FI for Joy Behar On

117
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: that one is just gonna say it. We will always

118
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,359
Speaker 1: when people speak the truth, they're speaking the truth. I

119
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: don't care who says it. The truth is a good thing.

120
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: She's right. She probably took a little heat from her

121
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 1: audience in that one. I don't know, man, maybe maybe

122
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: Joy be Harror is sick of carrying water for the commies.

123
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: You know, maybe she's starting to see a little a

124
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: glimmer of light. Let's not get crazy, Let's not get crazy,

125
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: but a little tiny bit and to joy be Horror's

126
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: defense here. This is the exact opposite of what Congressman

127
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: Congresswoman Maxine Water said. Remember where she said, and get

128
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 1: everybody in the face and scream at him. Basically, the

129
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: view should have us on. Let's just put that out there.

130
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: The view bookers have on clay In Buck Sunday Sizzle

131
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 1: with clay in Buck. Democrats sometimes can take it too far,

132
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: or you know, I would I would categorize liberal as

133
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: different than woke. You know, woke, which started out as

134
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: a good thing, alert to injustice. Who could be against that?

135
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: But it became sort of an eye roll because they

136
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: love diversity except of ideas, and that's not really where

137
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,919
Speaker 1: we should be. I mean, they have a trail of

138
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: very bad ideas. I would think at wokeness they do

139
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: have a trail of very bad ideas. That was Bill

140
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: Maher on his show, who again is a climate change

141
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: catastrophist and a man of the left on many many issues,

142
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: but does sometimes break with the lunatic left on some

143
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 1: very key issues, speak some truth, even to his own side,

144
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: and that I think certainly qualifies as a moment of

145
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 1: that they do not like diversity of ideas. But also

146
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: another thing he brings up is how we still live

147
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: in environment, Clay, where anyone can get canceled at any time.

148
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: Play twenty two. My audience who comes to my show

149
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: now understand me. They think like me, they have open minds,

150
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: they're not woke. They're generally liberal, but they can be

151
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: conservative too, And we have a great time and there's

152
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: no groaning, and I love it. But look, any comic

153
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: in this error, anybody in this error can absolutely fall

154
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: off the ledge at any moment. It just makes me

155
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: laugh when people say to me, you know you're uncancellable,

156
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? In two seconds, I could get canceled.

157
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: Anybody could. Now, there are different standards, Clay, as we know.

158
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: You know, people have more or less protection from cancelation

159
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: depending on their politics, their identity, identity, politics, their race,

160
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: their gender, all of that. But there is obviously even

161
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: a risk for people on the left who speak out

162
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: and speak the truth of getting canceled. We've seen that before.

163
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: I get the sense that there's more national fatigue with

164
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: this than a lot of Democrats even realize. I think

165
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: people are getting real tired of it. Well, I agree,

166
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: and I think whoever the Republican nominee in twenty twenty

167
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: four is. And I've spent a lot of time thinking

168
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,599
Speaker 1: about this because I'm writing a book that's going to

169
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: be out in September. I think being opposed to cancel

170
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 1: culture in all facets has to be a big part

171
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: of the Republican platform, and I would even expand it

172
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: and say, be in favor of jokes, be in favor

173
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: sometimes of offensive jokes, in favor of jokes that might

174
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: sting and make people uncomfortable. I think the Republican Party

175
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: should become the party that embraces humor, because I think

176
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: there is this idea that is out there that you

177
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: tell a joke and the wrong person gets offended and

178
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: suddenly you aren't able to make a living anymore, is

179
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: universally reviled by black, white, Asian and Hispanic people. Out there.

180
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: People enjoy laughing, and I would build on this further.

181
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: You probably get asked this question sometimes, Buck, and I

182
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: certainly do. What would you do if you wanted to

183
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: be Clay Travis or Buck Sexton and you are listening

184
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: right now, and you are fifteen or sixteen years old,

185
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: and you are in high school. I get asked this

186
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: question all the time, like, Hey, how do I end

187
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: up in media? How do I end up getting to

188
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: say exactly what I think? I would encourage all of

189
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: you to get interested in owning your own business and

190
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: your own content, because I think the reason why I've

191
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: been able to survive through cancel culture to a large extent,

192
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: Buck was because I owned out Kick and because I

193
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: had the ability to control my message and my platform.

194
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: And it doesn't mean that you have to be in

195
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 1: the content business. But if you want to get into

196
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: any media business, any business in general, unless you control

197
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: that business, you're always going to be potentially cancellable. So

198
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: you got to own the business. You got to own

199
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 1: your content. You have to control your ability to speak

200
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: to the larger public, because otherwise you may well run

201
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: into challenges when you actually say exactly what you think.

202
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: And successful business owners out there who share the values

203
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: of this show, others who share our values out there,

204
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: they need to partner up with them. You know this

205
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: isn't all hands on deck situation. Everybody, if you believe

206
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,599
Speaker 1: in the Bill of Rights, if you believe in constitutional

207
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 1: liberty and a truly free society, it's not enough to

208
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: just say that vote every four years. There are things

209
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: that everybody can do. I always say this. For example,

210
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 1: every sponsor we have on this show. I've never been

211
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: shy about this now or in the past. They're standing

212
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: with us for principles we talk about. They've made an

213
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: affirmative decision that they believe at least they don't agree

214
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: with us and everything, but they believe in free speech,

215
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: they believe in diversity of ideas. They think that a

216
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: free society of free America is a better one, and

217
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: so there's a partnership there. There's something we really appreciate.

218
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: I would also note, Clay, that you know dictionary dot

219
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: Com has added on the whole wokeness thing. This is

220
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: amazing the new words that have been I've learned some

221
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: new words today. These are now according to Dictionary dot Com.

222
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: I guess that means that they are official at some level.

223
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: They've added rage, farming, pinkwashing, latina, and a couple other things.

224
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: Let me just take you through these first of all,

225
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: rage farming is my favorite. You know what rage farming is?

226
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: You ever heard this one before. It's where you post

227
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: things online or in any forum where the whole point

228
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: is just to absolutely upset as many people as possible.

229
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: So I kind of funny to me, I kind of

230
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: like rage farming. I might actually use that one. This

231
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: was a new one that was this is they added

232
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: three hundred and thirteen words for this year. And pinkwashing,

233
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: which I had never heard of before. That is when

234
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: companies disingenuously try to appease the LGBTQ plus community. So

235
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: this is the like, oh, we don't just sell you like,

236
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, household cleaning products, like we stand with the

237
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: LGBTQ plus community or something like that. It's basically a

238
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 1: cynical trying to appease the community. To washing, they're just

239
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: adding like the ideas out there, Oh, the Saudis are

240
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: taken over soccer and now they got live, right, I mean,

241
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: I'm assuming that's where this kind of all came from,

242
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: and now they're just applying it to a variety of

243
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: different perspectives. The one though, I think is the most interesting.

244
00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: In some ways, they're replacing latin X they're replacing Latin X.

245
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: Now wokeness has realized Latin X massive fail because you

246
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: speak to anyone in the Latino community and they go,

247
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: what the heck is that? You know that this becomes

248
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,680
Speaker 1: a tough thing for them to get. So now it

249
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: is Latin, I guess, I don't know if it's Latin.

250
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: I guess lat I n E. So that's a gender

251
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: neutral version they're saying of Latino or Latina Latin with

252
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 1: an E at the end. I mean, it's not it

253
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: doesn't have to make sense, Clay right, It's just this

254
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: is what they're doing. I haven't spent obviously, I took

255
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: French in high school and speak it very poorly. But

256
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: what are they doing about all these languages? Were basically

257
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: every word is gendered, like we're you're male or feminine?

258
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: I mean, how are they haven't thought Sunday? The Oscars

259
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: were last night. Do we even do we talk? This

260
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: is always one of these things conservatives we sit here,

261
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: do we talk about the oscars? Or do we just

262
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 1: ignore them entirely? I decided to go for the short

263
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: version here of why is it that the oscars have

264
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: ceased to have the cultural relevance that they used to.

265
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember back when great movies used to

266
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: be nominated, and we're winning Oscars on a on a

267
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: regular basis. It was I think they said it was

268
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: watched by a billion people, and it was this huge

269
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: show and all the glamor and there, and yeah, there

270
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: were still left wing idiots all over the place, but

271
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 1: there were movies like Saving Private Ryan and Braveheart and

272
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: Gladiator and you know, No Country for Old Men, which

273
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: some people like more than me, but it was a

274
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: good movie. Uh, to go down the list, these are

275
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: all movies that were entertaining to watch and showed a real,

276
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: real skill set, a real p in the craft of moviemaking.

277
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: And now they are all these movies getting nominated. I'm like,

278
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: what is that. I've never been heard of these things before.

279
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: And the movie industry is a shadow of its former self.

280
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: That's obviously the case. Streaming and serialized content has taken

281
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: so much more of the attention. But the two things

282
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: I thought were introduced. One is that there was a

283
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: there was a woman in the audience with a huge

284
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: like veil part of her dress that was blocking the

285
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: view of people behind her at the Oscars, and I

286
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: know this seems like, you know, oh, how big a

287
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: deal is this? I really do think that we have

288
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: seen the collapse of consideration in public venues. I think

289
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: that people now feel very feel very justified in doing

290
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: all kinds of things that are just screwde. They're just rude.

291
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it. People will, they'll play. I've come

292
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: across this thing in the gym, because you know, I'm

293
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: trying to fight the dad body even before I become

294
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: a dad. It's a losing battle so far, but I'm

295
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: working on it. I've come across people that have really

296
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: loud because the gym they're playing music, so they have

297
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: to shout over the music into their earphones, you know,

298
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: their air pods or whatever, and and they're having these

299
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: work conversations that are so loud, and You're like, I

300
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 1: don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear

301
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: your work conversation. And I also don't want to stare

302
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: into the back if I'm at a theater or a

303
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: venue of someone's hat or somebody's you know, gown or whatever.

304
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: Oscar nominee Thames was slammed on social media after her

305
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: elaborate outfit blocked the view of fellow attendees at the

306
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: Academy Awards. I mean, if you see the photo of this,

307
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,719
Speaker 1: it's not a it's it would be like somebody's showing up.

308
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: It's it's like she has like a like a parachute

309
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 1: behind her head. I mean it's huge, and it blocks

310
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: the view of people behind her, and she just doesn't care.

311
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: And I guess no one's supposed to care. And consideration

312
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 1: for others is just out the window. It's just out

313
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: the window all over the place. No one seems to

314
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 1: pay attention to it. It's really anyway, That's what That's

315
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: the big takeaway for the Oscars for me. That and

316
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: Jessica Chastain put on a mask. YEP, Sunday Hang with

317
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: Clay and Buck. There was a time when Saturday Night

318
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 1: Live was actually funny. Sometimes Claire remembers that, I remember

319
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: some of you will remember there wasn't back in the

320
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: Dana Carvey Mike Myers era. Some of you even before

321
00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: that would point to the Dan Ackroid and Murphy Steve

322
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: Martin era. Right there. Bill Murray um did I always

323
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,479
Speaker 1: say him that there there was a time when SNL

324
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: was actually pretty clever and was a comedy actually was

325
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 1: amazingly clever, and it was really in the zeitgeist, depending

326
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 1: on which period you're talking about. We were discussing in

327
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: the first hour that Keith Olberman's suggestion for Ronda santism.

328
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: When when Keith is not starting Twitter feuds with Clay

329
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 1: or with me, Clay tends to engage where I still

330
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 1: laugh because he calls me tag tug tug sex butt

331
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: is what he always calls me on Twitter, which is

332
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: pretty funny. I don't know where the you know, anyway,

333
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: that's what he says, that's what he writes it me um.

334
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: But he was the biggest name at MSNBC for a

335
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: long time. He was the biggest name the host tent pole.

336
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: And here he is put through the prism of Ben

337
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: Affleck discussing how when his cat, Miss Precious Perfect, was

338
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: a problem for the co op board of his apartment

339
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: in Manhattan, that that was about as bad as the

340
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: bombing of Pearl Harbor or something along those lines. Play

341
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 1: you've never heard it. Here's just a little a little

342
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: reminder of Ben Affleck as Keith Olberman on sl The

343
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 1: letter was brief and to the point, dear mister Olberman,

344
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: that read the co Op Board, having reviewed your request

345
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: or an exception to its no pets policy in order

346
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: to accommodate your cat, Miss Precious, perfect regretfully concludes that,

347
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: in consideration of the rights of other co Op residents,

348
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: such an exception is not possible at this time. Sincerely,

349
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: Richard Lieberstein, co Op President. And there it was all

350
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: perfectly legal. Like the nineteen forty two internment of more

351
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: than one hundred thousand Japanese American citizens, or the forced

352
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: relocation of the Cherokee on the Trail of Tears, or

353
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: the monstrous and justice of our nation's Jim Crow laws.

354
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: It was all perfectly illegal and every bit as wrong,

355
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: if not indeed more so. You get it very well done.

356
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: It's pretty pretty good impression of him from back in

357
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: the day. I can't get over how funny the idea is.

358
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure that Keith Olberman has never been to Disney World.

359
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 1: If you have ever been to disney World, and if

360
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: you're if you missed earlier, Olberman said that because Ron

361
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 1: de Santis has been feuding with Disney World and has

362
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:41,400
Speaker 1: this new board that is designed to govern that Disney

363
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 1: World should leave Florida, which is again impossible. By the

364
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: analogy I made Buck is like saying New York City

365
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: should move to Idaho, like you just can't do it.

366
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: But then the rest of Disney World should all be

367
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: burned down while Ron de Santis is made to go

368
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: watch it. Disney World is so huge the idea, I

369
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: don't even understand how you could come up with the

370
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: idea of just move it right. It is such a

371
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: monstrosity and all of the buildings that are involved in

372
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,719
Speaker 1: everything else. This was why Ron de Santists could go

373
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: toe to toe with Disney because the investment in material,

374
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: the investment in cost. I mean, I don't know Disney

375
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: has to have I would think a billion dollars. I

376
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: don't think that's crazy. A billion dollars just in building

377
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 1: fees at a minimum. Not to mention that whatever the

378
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: valuation of the disney World theme park is now the

379
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,120
Speaker 1: idea that you would just pick it up and move

380
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: it to Puerto Rico, which is funny because nobody can

381
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: get to Puerto Rico. The great success of Disney World

382
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: was it's open three hundred and sixty five days a year,

383
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 1: and it was selected because the weather is great, but

384
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: also because theoretically, so many people can get to Florida.

385
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,880
Speaker 1: It's mind insane. It's insanity. You know. This is as

386
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 1: silly an idea as if someone were to say, hey,

387
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: maybe we can save the city of Portland by moving

388
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: it from Oregon to Texas or something. You'd be hard

389
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: to move a whole city, but you gotta figure out

390
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: something right now. This was also just in the last

391
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 1: twenty four hours up on the Daily Mail. Business owners

392
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: are fleeing Portland in droves amid pronounced rise in crime

393
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: and homelessness, and public data shows that twenty six hundred

394
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 1: businesses in the downtown have left Portland in townland. Portland's

395
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: not that big of a city. So for two thousand

396
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: and six hundred businesses to just be like, we're out,

397
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 1: we're not doing this anymore, that's a lot. That's a

398
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 1: lot of shuttered storefronts. And I just think that what

399
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: we've been talking about with the Chicago look moving in

400
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: the right direction. Chicago is moving in the right direction

401
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: now with now how much maybe it's only one or

402
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: two steps, but getting rid of Lory Lyfoot, who was

403
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 1: an obviously horrific mayor. The mayor of Portland, Ted Wheeler.

404
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's still the mayor. He might

405
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 1: be gone now I got to check. He certainly was

406
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: one of the worst mayors. He was somebody who was

407
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 1: sucking up to Antifa and then went out, did you

408
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 1: ever see this? And he went out to be like,

409
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: I stand with you Antifa, and they just started cursing

410
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: at him and screaming at him. And you're a sellout

411
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: and you're you know, you're the man and the whole thing,

412
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: and you know this is what is. It's not like

413
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: we just talked about this because we're in conservative media.

414
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: This is happening in places so while while the Libs

415
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: are all upset about Disney, which is fine and going

416
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,159
Speaker 1: to be fine some great American cities. I mean, I

417
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 1: think Portland's a beautiful place. I really, We've got a

418
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: great audience in the Portland area. They know I love

419
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 1: the Pacific Northwest, but the Democrat policies are making it

420
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: a place people don't want to be good way to

421
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: describe the reaction to George Floyd And I know this,

422
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,479
Speaker 1: but because I've been going through all the numbers as

423
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 1: part of my new book that's going to be out

424
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: in September, Portland from two thousand to two nineteen had

425
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:59,199
Speaker 1: an average of twenty one murders a year. After the

426
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:03,880
Speaker 1: George Floyd protests and the violence, in twenty twenty one,

427
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: I believe they went over eighty murders. Just think about

428
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,120
Speaker 1: how crazy that is for a city like Portland. Again,

429
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 1: I just gave you almost a generation worth of murder data.

430
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: Around twenty one people a year would be murdered in

431
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,360
Speaker 1: Portland in the wake of the George Floyd murders. They

432
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: went over eighty, right, And by the way, it's because

433
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 1: the people who were protesting decided, as we all know,

434
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,439
Speaker 1: that cops are evil. But Portland had almost no crime

435
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: at the time, and then they totally have fallen apart.

436
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: So some of these white woke cities that have allowed

437
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: the white woke class to effectively take over I don't

438
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: know what's the percentage of white residents of Portland. I

439
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,199
Speaker 1: bet it's eighty five percent. Right. It's not a particularly

440
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 1: diverse community, and yet they allowed this George Floyd incident

441
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 1: to so take over their city that it destroyed the

442
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: essence of one of the most beautiful places in America.

443
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 1: On the case of Portland, you had overwhelmingly white Antifa ye,

444
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: trying to burn down a federal courthouse, but just in

445
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: general create anarchy and destruction in the downtown and to

446
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: create the political lack of will for doing anything about this. Right,

447
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 1: Oh no, we don't want to, We don't want to

448
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: crack down on them, which then results in the police

449
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: backing off. And who in general and who suffers the

450
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: most in American cities when police are unable to protect

451
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: their communities high crime neighborhoods, which are disproportionately minority majority neighborhoods.

452
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: So when you actually look at at who suffers as

453
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,199
Speaker 1: a result of the whether it's the BLM narrative in

454
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,479
Speaker 1: Portland or across the country, the data speaks very clearly

455
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 1: on this. And I just I remember going to Portland

456
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 1: and thinking this is so cool and pretty and has

457
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: such great food. But this was back in two thousand

458
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: and ten, was when I was the last time I visited.

459
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 1: And I remember also though, seeing already in the downtown

460
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 1: you started to just have that people camping out. People

461
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 1: There was this whole attitude of We're going to take

462
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 1: this approach of let people do drugs and let people

463
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: sleep in the streets, and live in the streets and

464
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,479
Speaker 1: sell drugs and all this stuff, and it all just builds,

465
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 1: It all just cascades and gets worse. And this is

466
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 1: what we've seen now, and places really suffer once the

467
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: businesses of left Clay that now now you're already behind

468
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 1: right now, it's you're trying to rebuild, you're not trying

469
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: to just get things to normal. And buckets double barreled too.

470
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 1: It's not only the rise of homeless populations in many

471
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: of these cities, it's also that a lot of people

472
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: aren't going back to office buildings. You walk around a

473
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: lot of American cities now and remote work has taken

474
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: over to such an extent, particularly in cities where people

475
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: had long commutes in the first place. New York City,

476
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 1: buck I think is only back to fifty percent occupancy

477
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: for many of the big buildings. A lot of people

478
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 1: aren't going in. Basically, Monday and Friday are no goes

479
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: for many people. They might go in Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,

480
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 1: but people are not making that trip into the office anymore.

481
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: This is a big deal. I was just up at

482
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: Fox News in New York City, shows and doing some

483
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: events up there. It's wild to see how few people

484
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 1: there are walking around on the streets in the middle

485
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: part of the day, when you used to see every

486
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 1: store packed basically
