Very exciting. And for any 22 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: of you out there that recall or remember or maybe 23 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: even our planning soon to become parents, you know what 24 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: a transformative life experience that is. And as I said 25 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: on Wednesday, i think was Buck's last day before he left, 26 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: it is hard to hold a baby in your arms 27 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: and not be optimistic about the future. 28 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 2: It just really is. 29 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: And I think that's true whether you're a dad or 30 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: a mom, or a grandma or grandpa, aunt, uncle, cousin, 31 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: whatever you are, babies are incredible gifts of joy, lots 32 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: of work, and I'm sure Buck and Carry are going 33 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: to learning that out. Try to tell him because people 34 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: out there, you just really can't tell anybody what it's 35 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: like till you actually have a baby of your own. 36 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: But people say, oh, you know, we got a dog, 37 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: and you know that's we're training for being parents one day, 38 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: Like okay, not really the same at all. And once 39 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: you have a child, you are going to understand that 40 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: there is nothing you can do to prepare for being 41 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: a parent except be a parent yourself. 42 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: And so I'm excited for them. 43 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: I know it's going to be awesome, and he is 44 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: thankful for all of the fabulous responses that you guys 45 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: have already given all the tremendous congratulations, and so we 46 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: will hopefully be talking about that in more detail soon. 47 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: So far in the program, encourage you to go subscribe 48 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: to the podcast, make sure you don't miss a moment. 49 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: You can find me, Clay Travis, you can find Buck Sexton, 50 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: you can find a lot of people in our podcast 51 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: and network, millions of you downloading the podcast every single month. 52 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: We thank all of you for listening there as well 53 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: as on the five hundred and fifty some odd stations 54 00:02:58,919 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: across the nation. 55 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: But in the first couple of hours. 56 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: We talked about George Clooney and his new play suggesting 57 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: that Elon Musk gave a Nazi salute, which did not happen. 58 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: We talked about Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's house, the attempt 59 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 1: to burn it down, and how to me, it's symptomatic 60 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: of a larger failure to distinguish between good and evil 61 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: in this country. Today, we just played a lot of 62 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: cuts for you of Bill Maher talking about his visit 63 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: with Donald Trump and how similar his reflections are to 64 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: my own. Having spent a decent amount of time hanging 65 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: out with President Trump over the past several years. Taylor 66 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: the Wrens, Washington Post journalist talking about her love for 67 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: a man accused of murdering a dad in cold blood, 68 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: shooting him in the back, and a wash in a 69 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: Manhattan street. And there are a couple other things that 70 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: I wanted to hit with you here off the top 71 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: third hour ESPN. 72 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 2: Stephen A. 73 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: Smith went around and did a lot of interviews now 74 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: saying that he is thinking about running for president of 75 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: the United States in twenty twenty eight. I told all 76 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: of you that Trump was going to create a lot 77 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: of copycats, that there were going to be other people 78 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: out there who have had success in a variety of 79 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: different fields that saw Trump with no political past getting 80 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: elected and they were going to try to be the 81 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: next Trump. Democrats, in particular, I think are desperate for 82 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,239 Speaker 1: a new leader because so many of their old leaders 83 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: have said absolutely insane things. And Kamala Harris, while getting 84 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: raked over the coals for the absurdity of her position 85 00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: to give transgender illegal immigrants sex change surgeries, that was 86 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: what she believed with taxpayer money, she thought that should happen. 87 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: That's not out of line for Democrats. That's not outrageous. 88 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: They have said every seated elected Democrat right now, truly 89 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: ridiculous things, absolutely ignorant, indefensible things like men should be 90 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: able to win women's championships, which virtually every Democrat somehow 91 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: has lined up behind. Like cutting waste and fraud from 92 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: the government is a bad thing. Like putting violent criminals 93 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: in prison and holding them there is a bad thing. 94 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: They have lined up and said all sorts of crazy things. 95 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: So I don't think that Stephen A. Smith is particularly 96 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: well versed in the political universe. But I do believe 97 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: that there will be some outsiders who try to run 98 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: president of the United States as Democrats, and they might 99 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: in some way have a measure of success doing it. 100 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: But here is Stephen A. Smith out on. Let me 101 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: make sure where I get where this took place, because 102 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that I attribute it correctly. 103 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: Here says he has no choice but to contemplate a 104 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: run for president of the United States, and he said 105 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: it while going around and doing the interviews on all 106 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: of the different morning shows. He now is pretty firmly 107 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: putting his foot forward. Let's listen to what he had 108 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: to say. This is on ABC's this week with John 109 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: Carl This is what you're about to listen, cut twenty two. 110 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 3: Are you really thinking about running for president? 111 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 2: Is this something you think? 112 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 4: Listen? 113 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 3: I have no choice because I've had elected officials and 114 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 3: I'm not going to give them names, elected officials coming 115 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 3: up to me. I've had folks who abundits come up 116 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 3: to me. I've had folks that got a lot of money, 117 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 3: billionaires and others that have talked to me about exploratory 118 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 3: committees and things that I'm not a politician. I've never 119 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 3: had a desire to be a politician. I just signed 120 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 3: a contract extension with ESPN. I couldn't be happy. But 121 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 3: here's the reality. People will have walked up to me, 122 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: including my own pastor, a crime out loud who has 123 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 3: said to me, you don't know what God has planned 124 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: for you. 125 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 4: At least showed a respect to the people who believe 126 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 4: in you, who respect you, who believe that you can 127 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 4: make a difference in this country, to leave the door 128 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 4: open any possibilities two to three years down the line. 129 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: And that's what I've decided to do. Okay, So that 130 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 2: is Steven A. 131 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: Smith Bockcas pointed out, and I do think there's some 132 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: truth to it. Who has run for president of the 133 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: United States and actually ended up in a worse position 134 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: than they were before. It's an interesting question. Obviously you 135 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: can lose, but is Kamala Harris, for instance, who just 136 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: lost as president to Donald Trump? Is she really in 137 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: that much of a worse position than if Joe Biden 138 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: had run and they had lost. Maybe you could say, oh, 139 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: she could be the nominee in twenty twenty eight if 140 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden had lost. Maybe, But by and large, most 141 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: people who run for president of the United States end 142 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: up making more money and having more influence than they 143 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: would if they had never run at all. And if 144 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: your side wins, you may well end up in the cabinet. 145 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: You have an opportunity to do something that is fairly substantial, 146 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: even if you're not elected president of the United States. Now, 147 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: most people do not pull a Stephen A. Smith and 148 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: walk away from a twenty million dollar a year salary 149 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: to run for president of the United States. So that's 150 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: why I don't think he's gonna do it. I don't 151 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: think he's gonna walk away from twenty million dollars and 152 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: he's not independently wealthy to be fair. Running for President 153 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: of the United States costs Trump money, but it wasn't 154 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: a direct salary like a Steven A. 155 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 2: Smith has. 156 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: Most really well healthy guys or gals who run for 157 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: president of the United States are former executives. They have 158 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: huge amounts of assets, they have tons of stock, tons 159 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: of property, and they're still making a lot of money 160 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: even if they're not working, because most of their money 161 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: is mailbox money. It's not labor money. I'm a labor guy. 162 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: I work to get paid. Most of you work to 163 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: get paid. Most of you don't have tremendous amounts of 164 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: mailbox money where you could stop work and your income 165 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 1: wouldn't change that much. That's why I'm a little bit skeptical. 166 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: I do, however, think that Stephen A. Smith is emblematic 167 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: of a cadre of candidates that are likely to arise 168 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: on the Democrat side that are coming from outside of politics, 169 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: because the Democrat Party has gone so insane that anyone 170 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: elected to a statewide office, to the Senate, to the 171 00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: governor's race is actually likely to have a seri of 172 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: really poor positions that they've taken out that would be 173 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: very difficult to run on on a national level, and 174 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: Eve that's even true for governors, which is why I 175 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: think they're going to have to go with somebody outside. 176 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: And I do think that Stephen A. 177 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: Smith would do better with male voters because he has 178 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: the sports bonafide in the background. 179 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 2: The challenge for Stephen A. 180 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: Smith is I don't think he's actually that knowledgeable about 181 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: anything outside of sports. And I don't mean that is 182 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,319 Speaker 1: he going to get up on the stage and when 183 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: he's asked a question about trade policy, turn it into 184 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: a conversation about whether Jordan or Lebron are better. And 185 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to take a shot at him because 186 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 1: he's a very talented guy when it comes to talking 187 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: about sports, but he's never done a show that is about, 188 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: to a large extent, something other than talking about sports. 189 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: I think you could have asked the same question for 190 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: me before I started doing this show four years ago. 191 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: And this show is a lot less significant significant, but 192 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,599 Speaker 1: it's a lot less significant than running for president of 193 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: the United States. But I think over time you've said 194 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: you've been able to see, Okay, Clay has a strong 195 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: position on what's going to happen at the Masters. Congratulates 196 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: congratulations to Rory McElroy, but also there's a coherent political 197 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: philosophy behind a lot of his arguments. I also went 198 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 1: to law school, so that doesn't hurt in terms of 199 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: being able to analyze complicated legal related issues. 200 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 2: Stephen A. 201 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: Smith, I don't buy that he would be able to 202 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: be the nominee. But I actually think not having political 203 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: background is going to be an asset because it allows 204 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: you to change positions publicly without having to be a 205 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: total hypocrite, like Gavin Newsom when he tried to finally say, oh, yeah, 206 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: it's completely unfair for men to compete in women's sports, 207 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: But the problem is he had said the opposite for 208 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: some time before. There is an advantage to having a 209 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: blank slate sometimes when it comes to political positions, and 210 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: I'll tell you Trump took advantage of this. The first 211 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: time that I thought to myself, Hey, you know what, 212 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is an intriguing candidate was not when he 213 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: came down the escalator at Trump Tower. To me, it 214 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: was when remember that first debate with Meghan Kelly, when 215 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: everybody watched it on Fox News and Trump was so 216 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: commanding of that debate stage. Was actually the part that 217 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: made me say, oh, this is a new kind of guy. 218 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: Was when he criticized the Republican decision to go to 219 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: war in Iraq, because prior to him saying it in 220 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: the summer of twenty fifteen, nobody would say it. And 221 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: the reason why Trump said it was what he was right. 222 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 1: We should have never I don't know if anybody will 223 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: even defend it now. We should have never spent trillions 224 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: of dollars going to war in Iraq. It just like 225 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: we shouldn't have shut down schools for COVID. The decision 226 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: to go to war in Iraq and spend trillions of 227 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: dollars to get rid of Saddam Hussein was a disaster. 228 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: George W. Bush was wrong, Dick Cheney was wrong. I 229 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: think most Republicans now believe that even if you supported 230 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: it fifteen or twenty years ago, it was a poor decision. 231 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: Trump was the first person to point that out. It's 232 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: the first time I said, oh, this is a different 233 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: kind of Republican candidate. It's the first time it really 234 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: got my attention. A Democrat would have the ability to 235 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: turn his or her back on orthodoxy if that Democrat 236 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: were not a longtime political candidate and didn't have a 237 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: huge record that everybody could pick apart in the past. 238 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: The attack is they don't have enough experience. But a 239 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: lot of people out there saying is the experience our 240 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: politicians have actually that valuable? If you've got experience making 241 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: really bad decisions for decades, does that mean you to 242 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: deserve a promotion. For Joe Biden, that was the argument, 243 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: got everything wrong for years, gets promoted. I don't know 244 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: that it's going to work for a traditional politician to 245 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 1: get the nomination in twenty twenty eight. And that's where 246 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: I think stephen A may have a little bit of 247 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: an argument. But I think there are other people out 248 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: there who have better experience in business or media that 249 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: might be running as Democrats against stephen A. United States 250 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: Concealed Carrie Association, that's the USCCA over eight hundred and 251 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: sixty thousand responsible gun owners as members across the country. 252 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: I want to talk for just a second about how 253 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: challenging this can be. If you have guns in your house, 254 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: if you have a concealed carry permit and you're driving around, 255 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 1: what if somebody comes after you and you feel compelled 256 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: to defend yourself.

Hundreds of dollars an hour, 262 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: maybe thousands of dollars might cost you fifty one hundred, 263 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to defend yourself if 264 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: you discharge your weapon and get charged with a crime 265 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: for it.

Eight hundred and two eight 291 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: two I thought I would share with you my mom. 292 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: My mom was texting me during the show. So four 293 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: hours on Saturday, four hours on Sunday in the Fox 294 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 1: and Friends studio with Rachel Accompost Duffy and with Charlie 295 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: Hurt Hurt. My mom said that I needed to sit 296 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: up straight, tighten my tie she was unhappy with the 297 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: tie not and also that I needed to look at 298 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: the camera more. So those were my mom's critiques that 299 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: she was kind enough to text me during the course 300 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: of the program, and so by Sunday I was trying 301 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: to sit up straight, tighten my tie and look at 302 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: the camera.

When you said, what do I need a 310 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: radio for? Well, what if your overall communication goes down. 311 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: We've had a ton of tornadoes rolling through the Nashville 312 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: area where I live. 313 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 2: Of late our. 314 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 1: Power went down, and my wife has these radios charged 315 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: in the event that we lose power and need to 316 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: be able to communicate because cell phone networks are down. 317 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: And we also use it because we don't want to 318 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: give my ten year old a cell phone.

It's 333 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 1: a good, good problem to have. I suppose all the 334 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: time about the opinions that we share on this show, 335 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: that I share on OutKick, sometimes that I'm sharing on 336 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: Fox News, and I'm gonna let you guys weigh in 337 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 1: on this. But this just legit made me me laugh 338 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: out loud. You know, I was discussing the other day 339 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: that you can't trust any man that dies his beard. 340 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: I just I mean, and I pointed to me kind 341 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: of the ultimate just checkmate move. And I want all 342 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: of you to think about this. Imagine if Santa Claus 343 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 1: die his beard, You've got a white bearded guy sitting 344 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: in the mall, big red, fluffy outfit, big black belt, 345 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: white bearded Santa Claus. All of you will stand in 346 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: line to put your kids on his lap and take 347 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: a photo. If Santa dies his beard black and tries 348 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: to sit in the mall and have kids sit on 349 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: his lap, you would demand that he'd get arrested. Santa 350 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: Claus is my trump card. You can't die your beard. 351 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: I said this a while back about Ohio State football 352 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: coach Ryan Day, said he dies his beard. I'm sorry, 353 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 1: it's to midnight black. I don't buy it. It looks 354 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: fresh for every new game. 355 00:20:58,440 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 2: I said. 356 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: This is why Ohio State fans don't trust him. His 357 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: wife has now jumped in my mentions and she is 358 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 1: fervently denying that he died as beard. And the lead 359 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: story on a sports site right now called Awful Announcing 360 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: is Ryan Day's wife denies Klay Travis's accusation he dies 361 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: as beard. This is how we make America great again. 362 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: We stop dying beards and we start letting them go gray. 363 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: Because Gandolf, hey white bearded man, is the most trusted 364 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: man in America. White black, Asian, Hispanic, white beard canotes trust. 365 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 1: Dyed beard can't trust him at all. All right, anyway, 366 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: that's fun. That just happened as I was scrolling through 367 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: social media. So you never know what's going to become news, 368 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: and that is the news right now. Also news there 369 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: was an earthquake. I got to rely on the team. 370 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: When Buck's not here too, I don't get to spend 371 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 1: as much time checking all the news. The team tells 372 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 1: me that there was an earthquake in San Diego. We 373 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: are number one right now in San Diego, so I 374 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: hope all of you are okay. Five point two earthquake 375 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: thirty or so miles northeast of San Diego. I've been 376 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 1: in two earthquakes in my life. This is something that 377 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,719 Speaker 1: everyone who's not from California is terrified of. 378 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest with you. 379 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: First time I started going to California, I thought I 380 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: was gonna die of an earthquake. People who come from 381 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: California to where I live, they think they're gonna die 382 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: of a tornado. Whatever calamity weatherwise doesn't exist where you are, 383 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: you presume that you're gonna die of it if you 384 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: move to that area. I've been in two, probably the 385 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 1: two biggest earthquakes that have happened in like the last 386 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: twenty years in California. One of them was in San Diego. 387 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: I had a two year old. I believe my wife 388 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: was pregnant with our second. We were taking a vacation 389 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: to see Diego. Fabulous place. What is it the gas 390 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: light district in San Diego? Did I get that right? 391 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: Lantern district? I can't remember what it's called. Some method 392 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: by which you put light on is really fabulous in 393 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: San Diego. I haven't been there in a while, but 394 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: at Padre Stadium looks really nice too. 395 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: I love the way that they built that there. 396 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: All right, so San Diego, we're staying in a hotel 397 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: pretty high up our two year old's nap time. Wife 398 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: is laying down one to two year old. As Buck 399 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: will find out, you suddenly have to take a lot 400 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: more naps when you have a little kid. So I 401 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: think I decided to take a nap too. All three 402 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 1: of us are in the bed afternoon nap time, and 403 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,400 Speaker 1: the bed starts shaking like crazy. There's a two year 404 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: old in bed and it's going like we're swinging from 405 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: one side to the other, and I don't know what 406 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 1: to do. We're probably on like the fifteenth floor, and 407 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 1: this would have been sometime around iy ME twenty ten. 408 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: You can look it up. It was like in category 409 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: eight earthquake, I think seven point eight something like that. 410 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: And I get up and I say to my wife, 411 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: we're supposed to stand. I don't know why this would help, really, 412 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: You're supposed to stand underneath the archway. And look, we're 413 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: in a hotel room. There aren't really any archways. But 414 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, I get my two year old and I 415 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: go and stand underneath the archway. And the if you're 416 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: high up at all, I mean the hotel is really swinging. 417 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: I mean it is swaying like crazy. And I'm like, 418 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 1: we got to get underneath the archway. I you know, 419 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: the whole thing collapses. I don't know that you're much 420 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: safer underneath the archway. Some of you are probably structural engineers. 421 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: I think you're screwed. If you're on the fifteenth floor 422 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: and a hotel collapses, I don't think you got a 423 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: lot of hope. But I'm underneath the archway with my 424 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: two year old. He wakes up, of course, because the 425 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: beds like moving, because the. 426 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 2: Whole floor is shaking. 427 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: My wife is standing there, and I say, boy, this 428 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: is really a big earthquake. And instead of recognizing that 429 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: the building is legitimately swaying and we're from Tennessee, my 430 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: wife says, how. 431 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 2: Would you know? 432 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: She's arguing with me about the severity of the earthquake 433 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 1: while we are standing in a hotel room with the 434 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 1: hotel swinging from one side to the other. If that's 435 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: not marriage, I don't know what is. This is a 436 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: really big earthquake. Well, how would you know? Well, because 437 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: the building might be about we might be about to die. 438 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 1: Is the final thing that you want to have ever 439 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: said to me? Is well, how would you know? Because 440 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what if the building starts to collapse 441 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 1: as we're hurtling to our death, you know what I'm 442 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 1: gonna say? 443 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 2: Told you so. 444 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: Might be the last thing I ever get to say, 445 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: but it would be a good one to go out on. 446 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: I told you it was a big earthquake, So I 447 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 1: did that one in San Diego survived it, and then 448 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,439 Speaker 1: I think it was July fourth. This is where we 449 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: need a real time fact checker to make sure that 450 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: I get everything right. I think it was July fourth 451 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: in La I remember it. PEG two sports. The earthquake 452 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: in San Diego happened the same time that Butler was 453 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: playing against Duke in the National title game and Gordon 454 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: Hayward almost banked in a three to win. Do you 455 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: remember that game? That was the year the San Diego 456 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: earthquake happened when I was there. And this is also 457 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: not ideal when you're married and like, you can't remember anything, 458 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: but you have if you're a sports fan like I do. 459 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: You don't remember years anymore, but you can remember specific 460 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: games in their connection to life events. So that was 461 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: that when the one happened in San Diego. The other one. 462 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: I'm at the top of the Intercontinental Hotel in West 463 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: LA that used to be the Intercontinental Hotel. 464 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 2: I think they shut it down. 465 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 1: It overlooks the Fox Lot, Pico and Motor for those 466 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: of you have been out to La at all. On 467 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: like the fifteenth floor of that hotel, Kawhi Leonard decides 468 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: to leave, if I remember correctly, the Raptors and go 469 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: to the La Clippers. Shocking decision, and La has a 470 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: big earthquake and so also on like the fifteenth floor, 471 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: I believe that is the biggest earthquake that La has had. 472 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 1: In the last ten or twelve years, I was on 473 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: the fifteenth level there too. And when it's when the 474 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 1: building you are in is multi level and it is swaying, 475 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: I don't care what part of the country you're in, 476 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: it's pretty terrifying. So both of the major earthquakes that 477 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: have hit California, San Diego in LA in the last 478 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: fifteen or so years, I somehow managed to be on 479 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: the fifteenth level of a hotel and this was my 480 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: worst nightmare. The same time, everybody was on the Fox 481 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: lot because we were in television. That's why I was 482 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: staying out there. You have all these big lights that 483 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: are in the ceiling in the studio, and I believe 484 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: there's video of the anchors just going directly underneath the 485 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: desk because you're thinking, I don't want the big lights 486 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: to fall on me. But they were live on the air, 487 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: and everybody just paned. Of course, the most famous live 488 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 1: on the air moment of all time is nineteen eighty eight, 489 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 1: I believe, when they had the earthquake during the Bay 490 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: series between the Giants and the UH and the A's 491 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: and al Michaels, if I remember correctly, says we're having 492 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: an Earth and then he gets cut off and nobody 493 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: has any idea what happened. I mean that in a 494 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: social media age, would be an unbelievable moment to have 495 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: that happen. Yes, there you go. Twenty ten. Good work 496 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: by the team. Seven point two magnitude earthquakes south of 497 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: San Diego. That was in twenty ten. Matth was roughly 498 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: right there. And then I had the one in La 499 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: around Kawhi.

As it pertains to 512 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: the President, this was Trump at two am on Air 513 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: Force one, right after UFC three fourteen. 514 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 2: The guy's been working all day. He's on the Uh. 515 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: He's on the plane on Air Force one with his granddaughter, Kai, 516 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: who was going to be a golfer at the University 517 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: of Miami come this next year. It's gonna be a freshman. 518 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: And I thought this was great. He introduced her to 519 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: him and said, you know the fake news. This is 520 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: the fake news. This is cut eleven what Trump was 521 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: doing two am, having a having an interview. Biden had 522 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: been asleep for fourteen hours by now, but here was 523 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: Trump at two am. 524 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 2: Okay, come on, Trump, do you know the fake news? 525 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 5: This is the fake news? 526 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 2: Good morning? 527 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 5: What you're doing? A little news conff that you want 528 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 5: to partake?

He's just a grandpa 537 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: that is probably the overwhelming vibe that you have, and 538 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: he is a fantastic in many respects, but the fact 539 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: that he had that much energy at seventy eight years old, 540 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: goes to a UFC event in Miami and then comes 541 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,239 Speaker 1: and takes questions from the press at two am on 542 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: the back of Air Force one. What an incredible shift 543 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 1: it is between Joe Biden, who certainly never walked into 544 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: the UFC but would have been asleep a long time ago. 545 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,239 Speaker 1: I went to Israel in December, as many of you know, 546 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: we did the show from there, and life is anything 547 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: but normal or easy in Israel these days.

I've done it for the Mighty Muscles 610 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:52,839 Speaker 7: baseball team.

So does the coloring that you're talking about 617 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,280 Speaker 7: just adding color or taking color away? 618 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 2: How old are you? 619 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 7: You're talking about the authenticity of the beard.

In my opinion, if you want 626 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: to be a legit Santa Claus, you can't wear one 627 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: of those cheap ones that a kid can pull down. Mean, 628 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: come on, and my point is it's the it's the gray, 629 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: it's the white beard of Santa Claus that makes him trustworthy. 630 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 1: Santa wouldn't even exist as a major cultural figure if 631 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: they had tried to be like, oh, Santa Cla has 632 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 1: a black beard, He'll be in prison forever.
