Well, Clay, thank you for having me on. 22 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: And Buck, I'm not sure if he's in the studio 23 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: with you, but I'm here. Gianno, thanks for calling in. No, 24 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you for answering my message right away 25 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: and saying yes, you can come on. You know my 26 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: baby brother, just two fridays ago, it was a Friday morning. 27 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: I received a call saying that he was outside of 28 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: a venue and Chicago on the southside one hundred and 29 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: fourteen South Vincen's to be exact, right across the street 30 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: from a church. Unfortunately enough, he was outside standing next 31 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,559 Speaker 1: to two individuals when a black SUV pulled up. Three 32 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: to four men got out of that car and they 33 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: began firing. Fifty showcase things were found at the scene. Man, 34 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: I just got to the point where I can mention 35 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: this and not profusely tear up. So thank you for 36 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: bearing with me. Two or three people hid in total, 37 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: a young lady hitting a leg, another gentleman, or rather 38 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: another guy, I should say. He was shot, rushed to 39 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: the hospital surgery, had to have other surgeries performed since then. 40 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: But my baby brother, Christian never had that opportunity to 41 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: be in critical care to even have the possibility of life. 42 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: His life was ended right there. From that point on, 43 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: I recognized, especially after trying to think through what would 44 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: be the next steps, knowing that there were these men 45 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: at large who just murdered my baby brother. Not shot, 46 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: simply shot or killed, but they murdered him. They stole 47 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 1: his life from him. What is it was I going 48 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: to do? When was I going to make it public? 49 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: And it hit me right away because I couldn't sleep. 50 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: I gotta get out and start doing press, because I 51 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: need to ensure that the men who murdered my baby 52 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: brother are brought to justice. So I knew immediately I 53 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: had to post this, and thank god I work for 54 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: the premier news organization in the world, who thirty minutes 55 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: later after I posted, made sure that there were articles 56 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: and started talking about it on shows on Sunday and 57 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,839 Speaker 1: then doing press Monday and continuing on and on to 58 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: ensure that there's justice for Christian. Our hearts are broken, 59 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: our hearts are shattered, we cannot believe this happened to 60 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: our little brother. But what's really really heartbreaking for so 61 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: many people is this is something that occurs in the 62 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: city of Chicago on a daily consistent basis. You simply 63 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: don't know their names because they're not related to Giano 64 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: called well, they don't have someone with a microphone they 65 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: can talk about it and hopefully get justice. These individuals 66 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: have no names. There's just another count and a daily 67 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: homicide rate in the city of Chicago, and it is 68 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: heartbreaking that so many other people have to deal with that. 69 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: But while I reach for justice for my little brother, 70 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: I want to reach for justice for them as well. 71 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: But now I'm here today to talk obviously about Christian 72 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: who was murder and life was stolen from us. Speaking 73 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: to Giano Caldwell of Fox News, Gianno, I know that 74 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: the killers, the murderers here are still at large. Do 75 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: we have any and you've also asked for anybody who 76 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: may have tips to reach out to you directly. Do 77 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: we have any indication as to what was this? Is 78 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: it believe that any of the victims knew or that 79 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: Christian knew who these shooters were. Was it a totally 80 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: random criminal act? Did you have any context for people, 81 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: because if there's anyone out there listening who may know 82 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: something that might be helpful. Okay, So the individuals, again, 83 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: we're in a black SUV three to four African American 84 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: gentleman dreads. The police have told me that my brother 85 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: Christian was not then to the target. He was not. 86 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: Folks are calling it wrong place, wrong time, But the 87 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: problem in Chicago is you can be layding in bed, sleeping, 88 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: and it happens to be the wrong place, wrong time 89 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: when a bullet comes through your window, or like a 90 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: senior citizen water in their grass and they get shot murdered, 91 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: or just a kid simply being in the backseat of 92 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: a car at five months five months old. They're at 93 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 1: the wrong place, wrong time, and they're they're being murdered. 94 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: The erosion of life in the city of Chicago has 95 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 1: become a desperate level. People do not value life in 96 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: that city, and that's a problem. That is a problem 97 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: that needs to be six. There is a need to 98 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: get tougher on the criminals there. We had a whole 99 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: two years, probably more than that, where lease have been 100 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: nothing but demoralized. Across the country, criminals feel free to 101 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: commit these crimes. They feel free to murder. They don't 102 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: acquiesced to the policies of the law of the land. 103 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: They don't fear that anymore. Because we have an entire 104 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: society who's literally turned their backs on the police who 105 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: are meant to protect us. So, yeah, these individuals in 106 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: terms of contacts African American men, dreads, they were in 107 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: a black suv. My little brother, to the best of 108 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: my knowledge of what the police are saying, did not 109 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: know these individuals. He just happened to be there and 110 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: he lost his life because he lived in there to 111 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 1: breathe on the South side of Chicago. Gianna, this is happening. 112 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: Go ahead, no, so I'm sorry, I know it is 113 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: happening with far too high a frequency. We talked about 114 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: the number of shootings, over seventy people shot over just 115 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: this one weekend, seventy one shot, eight killed over the 116 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: fourth of July weekend. It's just unbelievable and awful the 117 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: number of people that are losing their lives and that 118 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 1: are being grievously injured in this way. Has anyone from 119 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: either the police department in Chicago or the Mayor's office 120 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: Lori Lightfoot's office reach out. I mean, given your national 121 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: profile and the way this story is getting a national 122 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: level media attention, has it didn't reached out to say 123 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: they're on it? Has it didn't reached out to say, 124 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: we're not going to let this slip through the cracks. Well, 125 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: you I was the former spokesman for the National Organization 126 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: of Black Law Enforcement Executives, and I've spoken with a 127 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: number of leaders there and they've assured me that the 128 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: superintendent of police is aware, he's all over it. I've 129 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: not spoken with them directly. I've spoken with the detective 130 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: on the case, but not with the superintendent. I'm not 131 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: talking to the mayor's office. We've requested a meeting with 132 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: the mayor's office. And you know, it's just because I 133 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: worked for Fox News. I think that there could be 134 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: some considerations with them meeting with us or even talking 135 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: about the case that I believe that could be a 136 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: part of it. I don't have anything to confirm it, 137 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: but that seems to be a sentiment among what people 138 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: are telling me. So no, I haven't had that opportunity. 139 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: My only bully pulpit is to be on radio with 140 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: you guys, with your large audience, or with Fox News 141 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: or with the local media, driving home the point about 142 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,439 Speaker 1: my brother's death and the fact that there's many many 143 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: victims like him in the city of Chicago that are 144 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: losing their lives daily, absolutely, and it's something that needs 145 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: to end. This is really something that should be telling 146 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: for the Chicago Police or the leaders in the City 147 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: of Chicago of what kind of environment that has been 148 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: created there. Just that last Friday, downtown Chicago, there was 149 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: a mass shooting right down the street from the Mayor's office. 150 00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:00,479 Speaker 1: We're talking about blocks, the blocks from the Governor's office. 151 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: If you can't be safe downtown Chicago, what can you 152 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: be safe anywhere the cd of Chicago. This has happened 153 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: in the areas that aren't It isn't about black on 154 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: black crime. It's happening all over the city and it 155 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: needs to come to an end.

I think your point is so well made. 172 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: Don't have the resources to reach out to media, and 173 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: media looks the other way. Why is it that so 174 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: many of these murders that are happening don't receive any 175 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: attention at all? And what can we do to change 176 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: that across America? You know what? And I'll tell you 177 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: if we're using Chicago as an example, that Friday night 178 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: on local affiliate, not a Fox affiliate, but a local 179 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: affiliate in the city of Chicago, they said, heye, three 180 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: people shot, eighteen year old murdered. That was it. That 181 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: was it. So yeah, there's not a lot of press 182 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: attention around these issues. Because of the frequency, people will 183 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: become numb to them. It's just another shooting. Wow, that's sad. 184 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: Whether it be in the city of Chicago or Baltimore 185 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: or Troy. Even some have become numb to what just 186 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: happened in Highland Park just yesterday at a parade. This 187 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 1: folks saying, yeah, we need to move on. And then 188 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: there's also people who are disingenuously saying that we need 189 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: more gun control. When there was an assault weapons ban 190 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: in Highland Parks, you already the gun control was already there. 191 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 1: And we're talking about one of the most prominent cities 192 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: north shore cities in the US, actually in the US, 193 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,439 Speaker 1: but certainly in Illinois. We've become numb to these things 194 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: because of the frequency, and I think what people need 195 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: to do is continue to make their voices heard, whether 196 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: it be on social media or even reaching out. If 197 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: you have a family members who's been murdered, reach out 198 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: to that print journalists on whatever website for your local newspaper, 199 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: find out who reports on this, send them an email begging, 200 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: plead for a call with them, tell them your story. 201 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 1: You gotta reach out to folks Instagram, Twitter, whatever medium 202 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: you might have available to you. Use those resources, call 203 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: those people and someone eventually will hear you. So you 204 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: gotta just be persistent. I'm just blessed to being a 205 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: place that this is what I do for a living, 206 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: But what about the others that don't have that access. 207 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: This is what you can do. You can just reach out. 208 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 1: Find them on Twitter, find them on Instagram, find them 209 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: on Facebook, and someone will more than likely respond to 210 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: you if you're persistent. Giano, thank you Gianno callwell for 211 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: calling in and telling us your story.

It seems 216 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: to get a handle on it. God bless you. Come back, 217 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 1: tell us if we have any updates on this one 218 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: and let us know if we can help. Please and 219 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 1: thank you so much, and you're helping so much. Thank 220 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: you Clay, Thank you Buck. I really appreciate you guys 221 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: and love your show. Thank you so much for sharing 222 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: your story with us. We're gonna come back. We got 223 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: some poll numbers about Biden and what it means for 224 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: the mid terms. Clay's gonna break some of that down 225 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: for us, and a whole lot more so. Stick around 226 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: people who work on their feet all days suffer chronic pain. 227 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: More than most. These men and women would benefit from 228 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: relief Factor, a natural pain relief solution. One person who's 229 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: had success with relief Factor is Dawn, a woman in 230 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 1: California who makes her living as a hairstylist. That's the 231 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: kind of job that causes all kinds of pain in 232 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: her hands, feet, and back. After taking relief Factor every 233 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: day for a month, all over pain went away. Created 234 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: by doctors and perfected over fifteen years of scientific research, 235 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: relief Factor was made for you with four key ingredients. 236 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: Relief Factor is a one hundred percent drug free product 237 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: which addresses joint pain. Hundreds of thousands of people have 238 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: ordered relief Factor, and about seventy percent of them go 239 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: on to order more.

There is a growing call from Democrats this 247 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: is not the opposition party saying he maybe shouldn't run. 248 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: And this ties into the abortion decision, I think because 249 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: by the left wing of his party, the president is 250 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: seen as ineffective. Not just an abortion rights but he 251 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: always seems to be playing catch up, whether it's baby 252 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: formula or at the border. Has him done to deliver 253 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: on voting rights or police or for all of these issues, 254 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: And so it's a hard position for Joe Biden. He 255 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: would think he would at least have the support of 256 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: his own party. But you know, the age question and 257 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: the fitness question are now being openly debated, in part 258 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: thanks to these media reports. If Democrats have a choice 259 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: between loyalty and power, they will choose power one hundred 260 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: percent of the time. Everybody. So this idea welcome back 261 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: to clayon book that you know, Joe Biden, they've voted 262 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: for him. They're going to back him up through the 263 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: rough times, not if they think he's he's gonna drag 264 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: the part down, not if they think that he can't 265 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: win the next time around. And Clay he likes to 266 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: go deep diving into the stats. He was sharing some 267 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: earlier on Today, sharing some of the latest poll numbers. 268 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Clay, this is stunning. You've got Biden. Job 269 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: approval is a Civics poll over the fourth of July 270 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: weekend job approval thirty percent approve, fifty eight percent disapprove 271 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: with independence, nineteen percent of independence approve, sixty eight percent 272 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: disapprove an independence. Not only they're people who are obviously 273 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: persuadable to one party or the other. I think they 274 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: tend to be, and the data would support this. People 275 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: who are like, what are the results right there? They're 276 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: less ideologically inclined to one side or the other based 277 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: upon ideas, beliefs and rhetoric and more. What's the price 278 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: of gas, what's the economy? Like, what's going on that 279 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: affects me? If those are your top concerns, Clay, They 280 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: Biden him in his racition is setting new records of awfulness, 281 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: new records of awfulness, and buck as bad as thirty 282 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: percent approval is Biden's actually underneath that in a bunch 283 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: of battleground states here Arizona. We got a Senate race 284 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: coming up in Arizona in November. Right now they're deciding 285 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: who the Republican nominee is going to be. Twenty six 286 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: percent approval rate for Joe Biden right now in Arizona, Georgia, 287 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: big governor's race and a big Senate race. Twenty six 288 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: percent approval in Georgia. These are states that ostensibly Joe 289 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: Biden one twenty nine percent in Nevada, a thirty percent 290 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, thirty one percent in New Mexico, thirty two 291 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: in Michigan, thirty three percent in Wisconsin. And Buck, this 292 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: one I saw and it was a record scratch moment 293 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: for me. Joe Biden only has a thirty four percent 294 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 1: of approval rate in New Jersey. New Jersey. Remember Republicans 295 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 1: almost stole the governor's race there last year. It surprised 296 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people. But if Biden can't get about 297 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: thirty four percent in New Jersey, that's pretty much unbelieving 298 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: in Jerseys all like, hey, Biden, the price of gas 299 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 1: too high, buddy, it's too high, and they don't want 300 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: to pump their own gas in New Jersey, I mean 301 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: even more expensive. It's getting crazy, or the taxes are 302 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: too high to pumping gas too expensive. Jerseys had enough, 303 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: but these numbers, and by the way, these this is 304 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,199 Speaker 1: civi Q. As Buck said, they also had numbers come 305 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: out in the Monmouth poll today. All of them are 306 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: reflecting that Biden's disapproval rating is about to hit sixty percent. 307 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: That has never happened in our lives that a president 308 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: has gotten to sixty percent. It's gonna get worse too, 309 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: by the way, It's gonna go down more. May Well, 310 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: I want to tell you about my pillow.

They're they're on our team, right. 336 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: It's just it's if you made a ring probably of 337 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes outside of the center of the city, plenty 338 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 1: of folks agree with me. It's when you go in 339 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: the downtown that I think most people in the state 340 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: of North Carolina agree with you on all of this. 341 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: And I just wanted to hit We've been talking a 342 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 1: lot about Joe Biden's numbers and how they're collapsing, and 343 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: one of the arguments that Democrats are still trying to 344 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: make Did you see this. I'm down in Florida and 345 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: Val Demmings is running for the Senate against Marco Rubio 346 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: in what is not going to be a particularly close 347 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 1: case close Alo, Marco Rubio is gonna win massively, like 348 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: I expect Ron de Santis to win massively. We don't 349 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: even know who Marco, sorry, who Ron de Stants is 350 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 1: gonna be running against. Yes, but Val Demmings said Democrats 351 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: will be on the right side of history. They're the 352 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: only party fighting for democracy. Listen to this, and as 353 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: you listen to this, I just want you to think 354 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 1: about it. Everyone who voted for Joe Biden overwhelmingly Democrats. 355 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: They lectured us for years that Donald Trump was on 356 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: the wrong side of history and they were on the 357 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: right side of history. And as you listen to them, 358 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: still try to make this argument. I want you to 359 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: contemplate this. They picked the worst president in a hundred years, 360 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: according to all the numbers. We're early in history. But 361 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: the wrong side of history probably would include picking the 362 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: worst president in a hundred years. I think that's the 363 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: definition of being on the wrong side of history. But 364 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: listen to Demmings, try to lecture you, Democrats will be 365 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: on the right side of history because it is the 366 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: Democratic Party. They're the only party right now that is 367 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: fighting for our democracy, fighting for the middle class, fighting 368 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: for our seniors, working to protect those security and medicare 369 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: lord of the cause and keep us safe. Republicans have 370 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 1: taken a vacation or they're permanently removed from any of 371 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: those things. Yes, we have the majority in all places, 372 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: but the philibus, as you will know, has been an 373 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: obstacle to moving forth an agenda. I mean, this is amazing. 374 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 1: It's a reminder that for so many Democrats the best 375 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,679 Speaker 1: option for them going into this midterm election cycle is 376 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: going to be talking about everything other than the things 377 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: that people actually care about. Find a way to make 378 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 1: this about defunding or sacred democracy. Don't you don't want 379 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 1: it to be a referendum on COVID policies. If you're 380 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: a Democrat, you don't wanted to be a referendum on 381 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: inflation and the economy and any follow through from Biden 382 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: based upon what we were all supposed to believe was 383 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: going to happen. I mean, even even some Libs out 384 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 1: there here are saying, yeah, you know, it just hasn't 385 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: really turned out to be this amazing Biden presidency with 386 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: all these great things happening. One of the other things 387 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 1: that I think that young woman was expressing is, yeah, 388 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: we're Democrats, we voted for these people, and what are 389 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: we getting from it? Um they were they were promised 390 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 1: a lot going into this, going into this Democratic controlled Washington, 391 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: and not a lot has happened. And they said, okay, 392 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: well yeah, christ and Cinema, Joe mansion. They there are 393 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: logical explanations to this, but there were a lot of 394 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,479 Speaker 1: overpromising happening, and they're having trouble explaining that to their 395 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: voters now going into the midterms. And what did they 396 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: What did they get for their vote? Infrastructure I mean, 397 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: by the way, infrastructure and eight point five percent inflation, 398 00:22:55,600 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: I mean infrastructure and a whole lot of economic decisions 399 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 1: and vaccine mandates that in retrospect are indefensable, just indefensable. Also, 400 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: if they had gotten more of what Joe Biden promised, 401 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: things would be way worse. Like Joe Manchin and Kursten, 402 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: Cinema save the Democrats from at least for now, double 403 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: digit inflation. And Buck I mentioned this in the open 404 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: to the show. That argument is actually why I'm concerned, 405 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: And we got a lot of staffers, We got a 406 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: lot of governors, senators who listen to this show and 407 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: their staff due they're gonna try to ram through a 408 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: tax increase before July is over. And it's under the 409 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: radar right now because they're trying to sneakily maneuver it through. 410 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you they are looking. They know they're 411 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: gonna lose the House, and when they lose the House, 412 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: they won't be able to change the tax rates. They 413 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: won't be able to pass any bills of any sort 414 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: of substantial magnitude. And they think, if you look at 415 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: the tea leaves, they probably have a good chance to 416 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: lose in twenty twenty four two. So this is their 417 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: attempt to try and make a maneuver to give to 418 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: their communist base this tax increase on many Americans out there. 419 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,239 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you this is one where Republicans have 420 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: to draw the line and try to stall, because if 421 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: you can make it through July, then they're not going 422 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: to pass anything. I don't think in August or September, 423 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: as you get too close to the election. But I 424 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: think they know the red wave is coming to such 425 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: an extent Buck that their calculus now is we've got 426 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: to get something else passed, because otherwise we're done. Biden's 427 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 1: election is effectively in the past. There's no other agenda 428 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: items to be passed. And this is where I remind 429 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 1: everybody the system is working as intended. Yes, gridlock is good, 430 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,959 Speaker 1: especially when right, this is the the elected representatives. All 431 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: this thing about, oh, we can't get our agenda through 432 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: because well, when sixty Senate seats live, Yeah, it shouldn't 433 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 1: be that hard. You're so popular, you're so amazing with 434 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: your ideas, right, I mean, this is exactly the way 435 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: that it should be working, given the express desires through 436 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: votes of the American people in terms of what the 437 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: what the breakdown is in the Senate, in the House, 438 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,640 Speaker 1: which is that they can't get stuff through because their 439 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: ideas aren't popular enough. Full stuff. They can complain all 440 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: day about Republicans. They couldn't even get through the Buildback 441 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: Better agenda because of Democrats. So this whole putting it 442 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 1: all on the feet of Republicans, it's just not gonna fly. 443 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: People realize that, and to change what our expectations are 444 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: supposed to be after the fact, after all the Biden failures. 445 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: People can see through that. So but again, Clay, there's desperation. 446 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 1: Does anything do you? I mean, honestly, do you even 447 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: remember what the January six hearings were really about a 448 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: week or so ago in terms of what was there 449 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: was something like young woman who testified, right, who cares? 450 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: It's it's all a sideshow. But I do think that 451 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: this is where the sideshow can provide them cover. And 452 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: you know everybody's gonna be cheering, Oh yeah, raised taxes. 453 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: The last thing we need is the federal government to 454 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 1: pass anything right now. They everything that Joe Biden has 455 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: touched has turned to crap. That's what I call the 456 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: bidas touch. The last thing we need to allow him 457 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 1: to do is have even more control. And this is 458 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: ultimately the House is going to happen, right We're gonna 459 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: have a speaker Kevin McCarthy. Nancy Pelosi is gonna, you know, 460 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: go back to being a regular congresswoman in some way 461 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: from San Francisco. Continue to have incredible timing when it 462 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: comes to the money that she makes on all of 463 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,679 Speaker 1: her trades, but and her husband will probably not a 464 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: couple more DUIs between now and the future. But I 465 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: will say this is why all these Senate races are 466 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: so important, because we're gonna have control of the House. 467 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: But if Biden still has the Senate, he's going to 468 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: try and ram through a ton of left wing loon judges, 469 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: and that could be all the way from the Supreme 470 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: Court all the way down. And so if you're living 471 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: right now in Georgia, if you're in Wisconsin, if you're 472 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, if you're in New Mexico, if you're in Nevada, 473 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,679 Speaker 1: all of these places where the Senate is going to 474 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 1: be decided, you need to be superactive, and you need 475 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: to be superactive with all of your friends and family 476 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: because we need a check against the awfulness that is 477 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: the Biden presidency, and a Republican Senate in a house 478 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: would at least keep things from getting far worse over 479 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,360 Speaker 1: the next couple of years. You know, I don't want 480 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: people walking around wearing those N ninety five masks because 481 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: they're terrified of facing life. I want them to have 482 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: a sense of vitality of go out there and get it. 483 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: They're gonna get it done. They're not gonna sit there 484 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: and cringe triple mask. Oh no, I can't face the world. 485 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: You look at the data, day, energy, drive and focus 486 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: you need, and you achieve that you find a way 487 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,719 Speaker 1: to get there, and Chalk is immensely helpful to that end. 488 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: These are drug flees of free supplements that come in 489 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: all forms, but I'd recommend starting with Chalk's Vitality Stack. 490 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: The top ingredient is and Chalk daily has proven an 491 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: increase total testosterone by twenty percent in a three month 492 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,959 Speaker 1: period of time.

Not a lot of studying, a 528 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: lot of uzo drinking for those who are familiar with 529 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: Greece and uh, but they'll show what the what the 530 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: Instagram photo or the Facebook photo version of the sunset 531 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: in Santorini is and then they show you that it's 532 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: actually you know, they're like they're like they're cropping out 533 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: the hundred tourists who just got off they got off 534 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: the you know, the cruise ship, and you're just bustling 535 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: through all the Fannie packs and it's a mess. Right. 536 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: I went to it's very beautiful. I went to a 537 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: place called the Looking Glass Falls and it's really fun 538 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: I jumped in, you know, went into the waterfall, the 539 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: whole thing. It's in a state park outside outside of Asheville, 540 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,959 Speaker 1: North Carolina. My favorite new place. How cold was the 541 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: water freezing? Yeah? And it's funny though, because it's like 542 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: I'd always seen these photos of it. It's a beautiful waterfall. 543 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: It is a very cool place. I'm glad I went. 544 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: But it was packed. I mean, there were like one 545 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: hundred people in line to get down the staircase to 546 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: get down to the river, to get down to the 547 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 1: pack of people who are jockeying for position. But the 548 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: funny part is everyone's trying to take a photo without 549 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: anybody else in it in the nature, that's right, only 550 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: we're all looking at this beautiful waterfall, three hundred of 551 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: us trying to get the photo of the waterfall with 552 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: no human beings in it. It's that's the selfie universe. Yeah, 553 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: of course there were selfie sticks of plenty, by the way. Yeah, 554 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: that everybody is creating this sort of artificially curated version 555 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 1: of whatever they do. And supposedly this is turned into 556 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: a monster issue with Instagram influencers all over the world 557 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: finding cool places that weren't very crowded taking photos of 558 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: themselves there, sometimes to your point, when they're already crowded. 559 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: But then those places get overloaded, and so there's just 560 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: a mass number of people that get seduced by this 561 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: imagery and decide I have to be there to see 562 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: it myself. I'm also a big believer. This is another 563 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: one of my ideas that some people will agree passionately, 564 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: passionately with me on and others will very much disagree 565 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: in concerts in particular, but you know, some some cases 566 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: when it comes to natural Look, we all want our 567 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: photo when we're at the mountaintop or doing something cool. 568 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: I get it, but everyone needs to take in the 569 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: situation a little more and worry a little less about 570 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: like live streaming it or something. You know. Have you 571 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: see the guy who went viral? I think it was 572 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: Tiger Woods in front of him at a golf event. 573 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: He was just holding a mic Ultra in his hand. 574 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: Every butta you know, Miller light I don't remember. I 575 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: think it was a Mick Ultra, but everybody else around 576 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: him had their phones up taking pictures of the golfer 577 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: that was right in front of him, and he was. 578 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: He became iconic among sports fans because he was just 579 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: the guy taking in the experience as opposed to the 580 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: one trying to tape it. We need more people drinking 581 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: their low calorie beer and enjoying the surrounding, enjoying the experience, 582 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: and less thick. I mean, the one that drives me 583 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: nuts is at concerts. Look, because I'll do this too, 584 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: ten or fifteen second video. Fine, right, you want a 585 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: little memento. Some people think that they're they should be licked, 586 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: and I don't mean a few. They should live stream 587 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: the whole thing, which means everyone else is staring at 588 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: their little screen from ten feet away as they're trying 589 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: to actually see the stage. Is very annoying behavior. We 590 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: need to be civilized, we need to be a society 591 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: of rules. The only time. I'm not a big picture 592 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: taker in general, but kids, because you want to memorialize 593 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: when you're a parent. There's a big difference between somebody 594 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: when they were ten and somebody when they were fourteen, 595 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 1: or somebody when they're five and they're eight. For most adults, 596 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: I would like to think that I'm not gonna look 597 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: that much different today than I did five years ago 598 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: or five years into the future. Right now, some people 599 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: may say, Clay, you're looking way worse for wear on 600 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: a daily basis. Certainly I can respect that, but in general, 601 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:08,320 Speaker 1: once you reach adulthood, you shouldn't really change that much 602 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: physically on a year to year basis. So one other 603 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 1: thing I wanted to whatever possible. I feel like we 604 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: should tell everybody positive, uplifting, happy, happy stories whenever we can. 605 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: And I really like this one, um, this is from 606 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:30,800 Speaker 1: Las Vegas, Nevada, excuse me. And there was a burger 607 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:35,760 Speaker 1: king worker who after twenty seven years of service without 608 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 1: every years. His name was Kevin Ford. What I thought 609 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: it was thirty years of service. Twenty seven years of 610 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: service almost thirty. So he finished up, and I mean, 611 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 1: this is rough burger king as is going away present 612 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: after twenty seven years of service or maybe this individual 613 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: burger King franchise whatever gave him a single movie ticket, 614 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: a bag of Reese's pieces, and a Starbucks cup in 615 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: a bag. And people felt like this guy showed up, 616 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: provided for people, did his job twenty seven years, so 617 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: they started a gofund me. I think they were trying 618 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: to raise like a couple thousand dollars to get him 619 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: a nice gift. As of this morning, it is still 620 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 1: going the gofund me campaign for this this now retired 621 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: burger King worker, Kevin Ford over three hundred and twenty 622 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. That is one of the examples. There are 623 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 1: lots of why social media can be awful. Stories like 624 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: these where people recognize that someone has been unfairly treated 625 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 1: and respond in this way is pretty fantastic, and certainly 626 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: this happens a lot where these gofundmes are someone's house 627 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: burns down or someone has a parent that unexpectedly is killed, 628 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: and the ability of these to go viral. That is 629 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,919 Speaker 1: a fantastic story. And I think we need to spend 630 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 1: more time talking about the innate goodness of the American 631 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,760 Speaker 1: people that I think in a social media age often 632 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 1: gets ignored. Yes, And on the other side of the coin, 633 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: if you live in an area of this country that 634 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: is overrun by the Marxist mob and you want me 635 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: to start a Twitter war, if you've got good food, 636 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 1: you're a nice vacation spot, let me know. Maybe I'll 637 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: come to your town and start a fire. This is 638 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: why when you go on vacation, don't tweet play us. 639 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: No more Buck tweeting on vacation. It just has to 640 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 1: be like, Hey, having a great time picture. That's it. 641 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 1: Sleet Travis and Buck Sexton on the front lines of
