Friday edition of The Clay Travis and 3 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show is underway. My friends, thank you so 4 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 1: much for hanging with us. I know for a lot 5 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 1: of you, this is one of these times where some 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: of you are probably about to leave the office or 7 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,080 Speaker 1: close to it depends on where you are in the country. 8 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: It's lunchtime here on the East Coast, so people are thinking, 9 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: how do I get going for my Independence Day weekend. 10 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 1: We've got a lot to talk about with regard to 11 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 1: the Biden administration, the price of gas, the price of food, 12 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: what are they saying about it, more fallout from the 13 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: EPA decision. We'll get to all that, but we're gonna 14 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: kick back, relax, and really just let a weekend Independence 15 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: Day weekend holiday vibes start to kick in here on 16 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck because I, first of all, it's one 17 00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: of my favorite holidays. It's a great holiday, selling rating 18 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: the most amazing country in the history of the world, 19 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: and one of the things I think will be a 20 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: recurring theme today. Did I say one of them the 21 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,279 Speaker 1: most amazing? I meant to say the most amazing country 22 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: the history of the world. I think that's what I said. 23 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: One thing we could get into a little bit today 24 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: is that while things are tough right now because the 25 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: people in charge are making bad decisions, and I know 26 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: the economy is rough, and I do think the economy 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,839 Speaker 1: is going to get rougher. So I'm not sitting here 28 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: telling you anything about how, oh next week it's all 29 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: going to turn around or something like that. But here's 30 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: my basic thesis. I had thought, I had actually had 31 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: the concern after Biden ascended to the presidency that this 32 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: country would bounce back. I underestimated the madness of the Libs, 33 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: which is hard because I think they're pretty nuts. But 34 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: I thought the country would bounce back just because the 35 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: end of the pandemic, everyone would realize it was all crap. 36 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: It was all absurd. The lockdowns, the mandates, all this 37 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: was totally worse than worthless because it had no upside 38 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: benefit and tremendous downside, and that we would go into 39 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: a period of economic rise and perhaps even something of 40 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: a boom that would be attributed to the Biden administration, 41 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: and we'd be we'd be here saying they didn't really 42 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: do anything. But the American people. American people got back 43 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: to doing what they do, and now Biden's taking credit 44 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: for it. That is not what has happened, as you know. Instead, 45 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: Biden has managed it's almost impressive, to make everything worse. 46 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: I mean, everything he touches gets worse. Every issue where 47 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: he has to make a decision, he makes the wrong one, 48 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 1: or the people around him, however you want to however 49 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: you want to see it, and I'm here to tell 50 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: you that's going to continue. That's not going to change. 51 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: But when you think about what is coming here with 52 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: the midterm elections, that are probably gonna be a wipeout 53 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: for the Democrats. I'm just a total crushed Democrat party 54 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: after this. When you think about that, I do believe 55 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: that we're going to start the beginning of that recovery 56 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: from the depths of the most depressing parts of the pandemic. 57 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: I think we're going to start sometime next year. Republicans 58 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: are going to be able to put a governor on 59 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: our government, if you will, They're going to be able 60 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 1: to stand athwart the craziest ideas of the Biden administration, 61 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: and before you know, we're gonna be talking about a 62 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: real change in leadership. So I just I see positive, 63 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: a positive future for the country. But that doesn't mean 64 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: we can lay off the lay off the accelerator right 65 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: now by any stretch. Get a lot of fights ahead, 66 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: a lot of things to get into. And with that, 67 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: I will take it to the concerns that people are 68 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: going to be feeling this weekend, where you have the 69 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: Biden advisor Brian Deese, for example, talking about gas prices. Now, 70 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: price of gas is really high. The Biden regime doesn't 71 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: have any any good answers to turn this around. In fact, 72 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: what they want to do would make things worse. Now 73 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 1: they've taken to just saying out loud, you're paying a 74 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: lot more money for your ground, beef, for your corn 75 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: on the cob, your gas, you're pro paying all that stuff. 76 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: You're paying more for all this because we got to 77 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: fight putin Man. The world is literally at stake. That's 78 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,559 Speaker 1: why you're paying so much more. And it's just not true. 79 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: What do you say to those families who say, listen, 80 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: we can't afford to pay four eighty five a gallon 81 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: four months, if not years. This is just not sustainable 82 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 1: or itich heard from the present Today was a clear 83 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: articulation of the stakes. This is about the future of 84 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: the liberal world order, and we have to stand firm. 85 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: I just want you to hear this. The Biden regime 86 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: is really telling you. I mean, this is this official 87 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: spokesperson that you're paying more for gas to save democracy. 88 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: I mean, these people are nuts, honestly if they believe this. 89 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: A lot of them as just going along with the 90 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: talking points. But we have all of this economic frustration 91 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: and pain that is growing with the rate of inflation, 92 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: with the cost of food, with the supply chain disruptions. 93 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: Never mind, I mean all I'm flying out tonight down 94 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: to North Carolina and I'm hoping I can actually get 95 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: down there just because the flight situation. You know, all 96 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden, sayever's going to cancel four hundred flights, 97 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: like the airlines don't even they don't seem to care. 98 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: They're go, yeah, sorry, ruining your long weekend plans and 99 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: you know, stinks for you, is basically their attitude. But 100 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: all this stuff is going on, and instead of having 101 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: plans to fix it, the Biden administration wants you to know, 102 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: this is the price you pay to save democracy. This 103 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: is the price of protecting your protecting our freedoms by 104 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: paying high gas prices. I don't think that really is 105 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: the case, but Biden even said this yesterday as well. 106 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: The war has pushed prices up. They could go as 107 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: high as two hundred dollars a barrel. Some analysts think, 108 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: how long is it fair to expect American drivers and 109 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: drivers around the world to pay that premium for this war? 110 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: As long as it takes, so Russia cannot in fact 111 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: defeat Ukraine and move beyond Ukraine. As long as it takes, 112 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: we're gonna pay. We're paying high gas price, no joke, 113 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: as long as long as it takes. Sort of stare 114 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: at you with vacant, put squinty eyes, A voice is 115 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: gonna go up, it's gonna go down. I'm gonna read 116 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: a little sheet of paper it says, sit down in 117 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: the chair, stand up when you're done speaking, don't walk 118 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: into a wall, try not to stumble. Very helpful, no joke. 119 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: So this is who's in charge, folks, A guy who 120 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: as a legacy a history when it comes to job creation, 121 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: of only creating jobs for family members who want to 122 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: get paid off by corrupt gas companies in Ukraine or 123 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: Chinese hedge funds on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party. 124 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: The only jobs Biden knows how to creator for Hunter, 125 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: and they're not particularly useful jobs. So this is what 126 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: we're facing right now, a regime that is still just 127 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: dealing with the consequences of their poor decision making and 128 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: the fact that they are ideologically so opposed to everything 129 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: that could be done that would make things better. I mean, 130 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: you speak to anybody who knows the energy industry, and 131 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: you know, I just spoke to a friend of mine 132 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: yesterday actually, who said he was talking to an oil 133 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: guy who runs oil drilling, oil rigs, and he says, yeah, 134 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: we have it's they'll say, for example, we have leases, 135 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: you know, thousands of leases. You'll hear that talking point 136 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: for drilling, but you know that they actually have to 137 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: get an additional permission to start actually drilling so you 138 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: can have the lease. This would be like saying, why 139 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: why aren't you doing fine living in your living in 140 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: your new house. You've already signed the lease. You've got 141 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: a lease for the house. You say, yeah, but you 142 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: also have to give me some written permission for moving day, 143 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: So it's not the lease itself is not enough. You 144 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: actually have to get I think it's the EPA. Speaking 145 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: of the EPA, to approve the drilling to find the 146 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: oil on the land, you had to get approved for 147 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: by the federal government with a lease in the first place. 148 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: You want to know why this stuff doesn't work as 149 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 1: well and as seamlessly as it should. This just remember 150 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: this too. The same environmentalist movement that is for most 151 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 1: of us, were saying the EPA decision good, it was 152 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: the right decision. The EPA regulating CO two from power 153 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: plants is absurd. CO two is not a pollutant. You 154 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: breathe CO two. Think about where the regulations could go 155 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: given that reality. But for most of us it's no 156 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: big deal. For the libs, it's like, oh my gosh, 157 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: the planet's gonna die. They're crazy, right, They have no 158 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: actual connection to the reality that all the rest of 159 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: us are living in. But this is like a religious 160 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: belief for them. And so even though it's very clear 161 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: what needs to be done to make things better, and 162 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: even though they're pseudo eco, you know, I keep my 163 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: carbon footprints small by you know, driving a Tesla once 164 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: a week instead of the three SUVs I have in 165 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: the driveway. By the way, I love SUVs. I'm just 166 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:44,959 Speaker 1: saying instead of actually accepting the reality, this is where 167 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: we are. And Clay, you know, I sit here. On 168 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: the one hand, the Biden administration is not in a 169 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: place it seems to change anything for the better. But 170 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: I do think America's waking up. So that's my message 171 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: of hope for the weekend, for the Independence Day. I 172 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: appreciate the message of hope. I've been sitting outside. I 173 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: think a lot of people have already started their vacation weekend, 174 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: and there was no one in the studio. And so Buck, 175 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: while I was listening to your open I also was 176 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: outside the studio here and I accepted FedEx delivery packages 177 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: for the Phantom on City studio. So I am. I 178 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: am rolling into the weekend. I'm now back in the 179 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: studio here. They've got to they let me in. But 180 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: I am also cautiously optimistic as we head into July 181 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: fourth weekend. Although Buck, I bet we're not going to 182 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: get an update on the sixteen sins that the Biden 183 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: administration was bragging that they save us last year. Remember 184 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: that tweet last year the Biden White House sent out 185 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: for everybody getting ready for their fourth of July cookouts 186 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 1: on this day one year ago, the Biden White House 187 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: I was I was also looking at this as I 188 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: was sitting outside the Biden White House sent out this 189 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: tweet bragging about the fact that they had saved you 190 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: sixteen cents on your twenty twenty one cookout. And I bet, 191 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: I bet that they are not going to update it 192 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: this year, right. I remember even talking about it, because 193 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 1: this is the tweet by the way Buck planning a 194 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: cook out this year ketch up with ketchup on the news. 195 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: According to the Farm Bureau, the cost of a July 196 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: fourth barbecue is down from last year. It's a fact, 197 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: you must hear, hot Dog. The Biden economic plan is 198 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: working and that's something we can all relish now. It 199 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: was cringe worthy last year, but to be in this 200 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: position now, oh my goodness, that's pretty crazy. I mean, 201 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: you're basically paying Kobe Beef prices for those frozen patties 202 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: they used to give you in the cafeteria. Do you 203 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: remember what burgers? I just want to tell everyone also 204 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: in my message of hope, Clay, I don't know what 205 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: it was like for you when I went to this 206 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: Catholic school growing up and we would have hamburgers in 207 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: the cafeteria. You do you remember what hamburgers look like 208 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: back in the late eighties and early nineties. They were 209 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: like these gray hockey pucks with some weird look like 210 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: craters on the moon on top of them. There was 211 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: that's actually really well describing that the hamburgers of my 212 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 1: elementary school in middle school life. I mean, it's this 213 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: is the kind of stuff that you think you'd be 214 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 1: served on some kind of a space colony on Mars, 215 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: and this was standard hamburger. No wonder people. And I 216 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: don't want to upset big Ketchup but people, because you know, 217 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 1: maybe one day we'll get sponsored. But people have always 218 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: been like, oh, you gotta put ketchup on your burger 219 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: if it's a good burger. I don't I think ketchup. 220 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to throw down on some grill, some 221 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: grilled debates today, Clay, I'm a I'm a mustard guy. 222 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: You know, we gotta sharacha shortage, and now there's going 223 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: to be potentially a mustard short have you heard about 224 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: like some of the headlines that I see. You know, 225 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 1: baby formula is serious, but some of these shortage details 226 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: that I see. I really can't even blie, how could 227 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: you run out of mustard? Like, how is that remotely 228 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,719 Speaker 1: possible that that could occur at all? Is mustard? But 229 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: we're evidently gonna have a mustard shortage. I mean, basically, 230 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: you're telling me that if I pull up alongside a 231 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: guy in a Rolls Royce and say do you have 232 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: any gay poupon, He's gonna look at me like, nah, man, 233 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: no great poupon. He's actually yes, this is actually a 234 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: mustard is going to become a rich guy thing where 235 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 1: you're like, evidently gonna have to run around and we're 236 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:34,479 Speaker 1: gonna have big mustard battles, So enjoy it while you can. Evidently, 237 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: because the Biden administrations even got us running out of mustard, 238 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: they also apparently can't screen clay. You may have seen 239 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,719 Speaker 1: the while can come back to this. The White House 240 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 1: Press Corps is finally saying, hey, you're a weird screening 241 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 1: process for access to Biden and press conferences. This is 242 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: getting to be too much. We look too much like 243 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: regime media. And since we think Biden's not even gonna 244 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: run again, hint hint, maybe we can start to push 245 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: back on this. We could talk about that in a moment. Yeah, 246 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: no doubt, and it is a total mess. We'll talk 247 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: about that, but I want to tell you guys right now. 248 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Police Officer 249 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 1: James Connolly passed away in twenty seventeen from nine to 250 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,719 Speaker 1: eleven related cancer he developed from his search and recovery 251 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: efforts at the World Trade Center following the terror attacks Tunnel. 252 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: The Towers's committed to ensuring America keeps its vow to 253 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: never Forget nine to eleven and keeps the memory of 254 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: heroes like this great Officer Kennelly alive.

So let's go with 271 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: the person most likely to win Joe Biden beat in 272 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: a huge landslide victory in the popular boat, Donald Trump. 273 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: I think that says a lot. Welcome back to Clay 274 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: and Buck. That was Hillary, who is still out there, folks, 275 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: not yet with her aspirations to run this country. Don't 276 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: think she is. I thought that was funny. What a 277 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: what a silly question. I don't know if it's a 278 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: silly question that she would endorse Joe Biden, considering she 279 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: probably is wondering when Joe is gonna says he's not 280 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: into a clay. We're at Independence Day weekend now, so 281 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: I was gonna say to everybody, first of all, can 282 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: we get it? Can we get a permission like a 283 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: Hall pass to say fourth of July weekend. People get 284 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: mad about that. I know it's Independence Day weekend, but 285 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: everyone's used to saying fourth of July weekend. People get 286 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: mad about that. Oh yes, they're like, it's not fourth 287 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: of July, it's Independence Day. It's not quite as bad 288 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: as calling a magazine a clip for when you're loading 289 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: a rifle. That's very people get very mad about that. 290 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: But the fourth of July weekend, a lot of people 291 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: say that. I think we gotta be okay with that. 292 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: I want to hear what people's traditions are. So the 293 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: numbers eight hundred two A two two eight eight two. 294 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: What are you planning?

Some people are like anti 301 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: the flag being used on bathing suits. Have you ever 302 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 1: heard that? Really? You have? I've heard I'm down for 303 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: treating an actual American flag as an actual American flag 304 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: should be treated, but the the print of a flag, 305 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't have an issue. Yeah, I've heard. 306 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm actually curious if other people have heard this complaint 307 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: or if it's just kind of a Southern thing. I 308 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: am big fan of the American flag mikini on July fourth, 309 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: so that is one of that is one of my 310 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: favorite traditions of the whole.

I wanted to 345 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: hit you guys with this. Our boy Rex Chapman, who 346 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: is a liberal, left wing loon lion. Can I can't 347 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: just interject to quickly ask you this, So for for 348 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: purpose of context, Clay, is he left wing even among 349 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,199 Speaker 1: the super left sports media or is he kind of 350 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: standard opera raiding left wing procedure. I think he is. 351 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: I don't really know how Rex Chapman became a thing 352 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: on Twitter. So for those of you who don't know, 353 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: and I know you Kentucky people are like, I know 354 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: Rex Chapman as well. He's a legendary basketball player from 355 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,719 Speaker 1: the University of Kentucky, had a pretty good NBA career 356 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 1: as well, and then descended into I believe, drug addiction 357 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: that led to his being arrested for robbing a Apple store. 358 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: And so along the way he started posting on like 359 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: oh yeah, like thousands of dollars, We'll have the crew 360 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: look up the exact amount. But he stole thousands of 361 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: dollars of Apple gear and was arrested. Says it was 362 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: during his drug addiction, decided that he was going to 363 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: become clean hopefully is and then started posting on social 364 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: media all the time. And initially it was kind of 365 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: funny before he got political. He would post funny video 366 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: and just say block or charge and it would be 367 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,239 Speaker 1: like a dog running and knocking over a guy and 368 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: you'd be like, hey, for basketball purposes, was this a 369 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: block or a charge? And that's where I initially saw him, 370 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: and then he just at some point went full on 371 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: left wing wound mask police, just like just really crazy, 372 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: even crazy for sports media, which which is super left wing. 373 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: And so yesterday he posted I just want to read 374 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: these series of tweets because I think it's emblematic of 375 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: white liberals, white left wingers who feel very comfortable first 376 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: of all criticizing Clarence Thomas, but also policing. This is 377 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 1: the same thing Joe Biden did, policing what black people 378 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: can or cannot do based on their race. Remember Joe 379 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: Biden saying you ain't black if you're not voting for 380 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: me or this is part of a broader trend of 381 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: and it's been true for a long time. White liberals think, 382 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: as long as they are super woke, yeah they are, 383 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: they are completely and they are allowed by their own side, 384 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: they do get away with it to be really racist 385 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 1: towards black conservatives. Bottom line, white liberals think they can 386 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: say whatever they can. You know, they can be racist 387 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: as long as the target is clearly a conservative who 388 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: is black. So here's this series of tweets which is 389 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: really I don't think Rex Chapman is very smart, and 390 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that as an insult. I just I 391 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: don't think he's a very smart human, and so he 392 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 1: puts himself in some of these situations where logically you 393 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: can't even by the way, thanks for the staff. In 394 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: September of twenty fifteen, so it wasn't that long ago, 395 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: Rex Chapman was arrested and charged with shoplifting fourteen thousand 396 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: dollars worth of merchandise from an Apple store in Scottsdale, Arizona. 397 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: I'm assuming like maybe he was just grabbing his I mean, 398 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: it seems like that sounds like he went in there 399 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: with a Santa Claus bag and it was just throwing 400 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: laptops in it, you know. And by the way, September 401 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: at twenty fifteen, he was ahead of his time because 402 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: nowadays everybody can go in and steal and it's just 403 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: like totally acceptable. But fourteen thousand dollars worth of merchandise, 404 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: that is a great deal of merchandise in Cyben Apple store. 405 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: So So that was the downfall of Rex Chapman and 406 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: since then he's now gotten really active on Twitter. He 407 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: was memorably one of the CNN plus employees that was 408 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: r Yeah, his CNN Plus, and they decided they were 409 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: going to have Rex Chapman traveling around the world doing interviews, 410 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: which maybe the worst pitch for a television show or 411 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: digital show I've ever heard. But here's what he tweeted. 412 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: He pointed a photo of the time or video the 413 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: time Justice Clarence Thomas attended the graduation event of Christiandom 414 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: College along with the late Justice Antonin Scalia's son, not 415 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:01,439 Speaker 1: another person of color in the picture, which is weird. Okay, 416 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: so there's a white people there and Clarence Thomas was there. 417 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: Such a champion Lol. I think the thing I think 418 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: is most funny about this is these white kids and 419 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:18,719 Speaker 1: their parents view this as their entry into Black America. Again, 420 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: super weird. And then it gets weirder. Clarence Thomas would 421 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: last twenty to thirty seconds in an NBA locker room. 422 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 1: Why have you never seen Clarence Thomas at an NBA game? 423 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 1: As in ever, Bill Clinton used to come to our 424 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: games in Landover with the bullets. Clarence Thomas never so 425 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: he moves from look at Clarence Thomas with these white 426 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: people to basically, Clarence Thomas isn't black because Rex Chapman 427 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: never saw him ever come to an NBA basketball game. 428 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 1: And also Clarence Thomas would last twenty to th thirty 429 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 1: seconds in an NBA locker room. I don't even understand 430 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: what that means. There are lots of conservatives in NBA 431 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: locker rooms like that. There's a wide right. Despite the 432 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: fact that sports media and sports they try to claim 433 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 1: as all woke, lots of athletes agree with us, buck 434 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 1: a lot of them listen to us. I think that 435 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: with someone like Rex Rex Chapman, who I'd never heard 436 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: of until you told me about him. The only reason 437 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 1: this is noteworthy in any sense and for us to 438 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: talk about it on a platform with millions of listeners, 439 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: is because you really saw after this Supreme Court decision 440 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: last week written talking about the Roe v. Way decision, 441 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: written by Alito as the primary justice but signed onto 442 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: by Thomas, there was such a particular singling out and 443 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: hatred of an undermining of justice Clarence Thomas, who, as 444 00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: we've said before, is a national treasure everyone knows says 445 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 1: he's an amazing human being on top of being a 446 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: legal giant and somebody of tremendous principle, tremendous courage and character, 447 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: and his life story, as we discussed as well, Pinpoint 448 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: Georgia right, incredible to come from Pinpoint Georgia, very humble 449 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: origins and rise all the way to a law school, 450 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. Amazing story. But it is fashionable on 451 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: the left still to trash black conservatives. Honestly, any person 452 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: of color who is conservative is able to just and 453 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 1: the left doesn't. They they don't police it, they don't 454 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: have a problem with it. The rules, all of a sudden, 455 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: are so different. Wokeness goes on total hiatus the moment 456 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: someone's a conservative who happens to be a person of color, 457 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: and it's grotesque, and it just shows you this is 458 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: about principle. This is about people looking for emotional and 459 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,719 Speaker 1: social validation of their ideas through being nasty. I mean, 460 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: I always thought that Elon must play when he said 461 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: that wokenus is just really about being mean to people 462 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 1: and thinking you're a good person while you do it. 463 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: That's what you see with these attacks these attacks on 464 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: Clarence Thomas. I don't think there's any doubt. And it 465 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: is wild to me what people can be able to 466 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: get away with saying if they play the woke card. 467 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: Because effectively, what Clarence Thomas is being accused of here 468 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 1: is not being black by a white guy. So a 469 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: white guy in Rex Chapman is policing what is acceptable 470 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: behavior and standards for a black guy, and it's and 471 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 1: it's allowed. And I think to your point, buck Alito 472 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: wrote the opinion, there's no doubt Clarence Thomas has been 473 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: the most criticized in the wake of Roe v. Wade 474 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: being overturned, and even the guy like Keith Olberman referred 475 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: to Amy Coney Barrett as a paralegal. So if you 476 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: are female, or if you are black, and you happen 477 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: to have some conservative political opinions, then the usual racism 478 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 1: and sexism allegations are never trotted out. They don't apply 479 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: at all. You can say anything and attack people as 480 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: much as you want. That's why we have to call 481 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 1: them out, show the hypocrisy, show the disgraceful nature of 482 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: the way they go after people like Justice Clarence Thomas. 483 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: We'll get back into more of this. Your calls to 484 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: here in a moment eight hundred two A two two 485 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: eight eight two Rackham and Stack and we want to 486 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: hear from you. Guys. About to go into a holiday 487 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: week in America still number one to spite Biden. So 488 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: good things happening. A lot of families are going to 489 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 1: be getting together, there's holiday weekend, taking part in traditions 490 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: that go back for generations. I mean, wouldn't it be 491 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: cool to have the ability to revisit some of those 492 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: moments from decades past. Legacy Box makes that possible.

I've actually never been to Asheville. For we 535 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: have a fantastic station. So folks down listening on ww 536 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: NCAM in Asheville, if you happen to see a guy 537 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: maybe scootering around on an electric scooter with a swoop 538 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: of hair blowing in the wind, it's probably me. So 539 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: come over and say do you have your festivities planned? 540 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: In Ashville? A carry's in charge. We're seeing her family 541 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: is there, so we're going for family weekend. So I'm 542 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: just I'm just showing up and eating whatever's at the barbecue. 543 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: Asheville is phenomenal. The two things that I would tell 544 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 1: you to do is the Biltmore. Right, you go to 545 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: the Bilmore Estate. I've heard of that one. You have 546 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: to see the Billmore which is amazing house to tour. 547 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: And then the Thomas Wolf Home if you ever read 548 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: like look Homeward Angel, famous North Carolina writer. He was 549 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: born and raised in Asheville and spent much of his 550 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: time there. And it's right in downtown, right in downtown Ashville. 551 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 1: Those are the two things that I mean. There's some 552 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: great obviously restaurants, breweries. I mean, it's a cool town. 553 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: There's lots of hiking, lots of mountainous uh and and 554 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: and river related activities to do as well. But those 555 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: are the two things that I would say are really 556 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: cool must seas in Asheville. What about what about you? 557 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: What's going on? You're gonna be in the Panhandle. I 558 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: will be, yeah, be down here on the Gulf Coast, 559 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 1: which is America's home of the South during the during 560 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: the summer. I mean it is. It is phenomenal down here, 561 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: and so I'll just be on the beach. I'm gonna 562 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: be on the beach. How's that guest cottage coming along there? 563 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: You know? Missus Travis said, I don't have to sleep 564 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: on the beach in a tent. By the way, Laura, 565 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: Laura gave the green light, I'm allowed in the guests. 566 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: It is going to take so long to get this 567 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: house built down here. You have to go through I'm told, 568 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: and a B and a C design committee before your 569 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: architecture plans are given the green light to be able 570 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: to break ground. So we have our lot. We are, 571 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: I believe, in the midst of the B review, but 572 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: they have thirty This is it's an unbelievable process. So 573 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna take like three months to get the architecture 574 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: plans approved. So you would think that in the in 575 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: that region we need to speak Florida Clay has these 576 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: regulatory issues for our But this is a community thing, right, 577 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: It's not like a state that is not the state 578 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: of Florida. Yeah, this is this is the community that 579 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 1: we are in and they are the community is very nice, 580 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: but the detail, it is very very detailed. This is 581 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: like when I was down in Key Largo and I 582 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: made the mistake of walking out, you know, without a 583 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: collared shirt on, and they were like, excuse me, sir, 584 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: oh really on the property?

You have to have a 594 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 1: jacket on the ground after six o'clock you can't be 595 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 1: in the I've never been. Can I tell you my 596 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 1: fanciest dress code violation story that I've ever had, because 597 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: it's just what happened. I got invited to a pre 598 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: opera party when I was maybe a young CIA officer, 599 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: So for me, it was a lady brought me. She 600 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: was a part of some club at the Metropothan Opera 601 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: in New York, which if anyone's ever been, it is 602 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: quite an experience. I mean, I've never been. It's like 603 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: four hours long to go to the opera, but anyway, 604 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 1: it's quite an experience. It's it's very um sounds miserable 605 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 1: to me. I would I think if I had to 606 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,359 Speaker 1: go to the opera for four hours, I would lose 607 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: my mom. I'm somebody. I'm pretty I'm not. Actually, I'm 608 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: not that patient. That's a lie. I lose patience with 609 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 1: it pretty quickly. The first hour you're like, this is amazing, 610 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 1: it's high culture. The second hour you're like, all right, 611 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 1: I get it. Like the big Italian guy is singing. 612 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: You know, they all go like four hours. His cousin, Giuseppe, 613 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: was working as a condultiere for the Duke, and his 614 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: second cousin was lost in the Oh shit, there's Oh 615 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 1: You're like trying to figure the story out. You're like, 616 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: what's going on anyway? Um, But I was at this. 617 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: I mean, we have to take calls. By the way, 618 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: we started to I started talking too much. I apologize. 619 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,320 Speaker 1: You will get to your calls, guys. Um.

We're going to need you to change. 637 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 1: They actually made me switch my dark purple bow tie 638 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: to a black tie at the black tie event. I 639 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 1: never forgot that. Wow. Yeah, did you consciously make the 640 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: choice to the purple tie. Have you ever you've been 641 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: to black tie? People usually wear different color, you know, 642 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,840 Speaker 1: bow ties, and they have a little fun with it. 643 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: I didn't realize apparently black tie means the tie is black. Wow. 644 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: I don't know that I would have even thought that. 645 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: I might not have even noticed that I had a 646 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: purple tie on.
