1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,520 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Third hour of the Clay Travis and 3 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show gets going right now, everybody, thank you 4 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: for being with us. We had Joe Biden just address 5 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: the nation on the devastation in Florida and the oncoming hurricane. 6 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 1: Now the continuation of Hurricane Ian into South Carolina and 7 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: that part of the coastal southeastern US. So our thoughts 8 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: are going out to everybody who's been already affected in 9 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: Florida and also those who are going to be bearing 10 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: the brunt here of a less extreme but still dangerous 11 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: Hurricane Ian in the southeastern United States. One thing that 12 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: I've mentioned at the top of the program today at 13 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:48,319 Speaker 1: the first hour. If you miss it, please go check 14 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 1: out the Clay and Buck Podcast is that Russia has 15 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: now had a sham referendum effectively in a number of 16 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: parts of eastern and southern Ukraine, and so now they 17 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: are officially Russian Federation territory according to Russia. I had 18 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: thought all along, in fact, in the beginning of this conflict, 19 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: at the start of this year, I'd said that Russia 20 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: is just going to carve up and take parts of 21 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: Ukraine into its territory. Their question really was how much 22 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: I bring this up because our team was monitoring this, 23 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: and Biden spoke about what's going on right now in Ukraine, 24 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: and here's what he said. He's his neighbor's territory and 25 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: get away with it, as as simple as that. And 26 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: they're going to stay the course. You're going to continue 27 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: to provide military equipment so the Ukraine can defend itself 28 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: and this territory his freedom, including additional resources that the 29 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: Congress is going to give me to day of thirteen 30 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: billion more dollars to help the Ukrainians defend themselves and 31 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: fight back. And we're fully prepared to defend I'm going 32 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: to say this again, America is fully prepared with our 33 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: NATO allies defend every single inch of NATO territory, every 34 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 1: single inch. So mister Putin, don't misunderstand what I'm saying, 35 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: every inch. So Clay, we're sending now billions more to Ukraine. 36 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: I have never heard the president talk about what the 37 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: negotiated settlement. It seems like this administration has decided this 38 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: war ends when Russia loses, and they keep saying this 39 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: without ever even explaining what does that mean? Does it 40 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: mean that Russia is losing all of the territory, even 41 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: territory that it had taken from Ukraine stretching back seven 42 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: now going on eight years ago? Does it mean the 43 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: fall of Putin as the leader of Russia. There seems 44 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: to be a mission creep under way here for Austin, 45 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: for our allies in Europe. That's very concerning. When Putin 46 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: is giving I mean, I could look up some of 47 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 1: the quotes. The speech that he just gave is scary. 48 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's something I mean, he says, here's the 49 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: headline the BBC. Putin raises the stakes and speech full 50 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: of anti Western bile, and he's talking about obviously the 51 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: incorporation or the seizure of this territory. He said, oh sorry, 52 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: the United States, Biden said, will never never recognize Russia's 53 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: claim on Ukraine sovereign territory. So what does that mean? 54 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: Because taking this territory back from Russia is going to 55 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: take a long time and a lot more than billions 56 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: of dollars years theoretically. Now, maybe there's just going to 57 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: end up being some sort of tacit. You know, boundaries 58 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: drawn and both sides are going to stay armed and 59 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: they'll just be some sort of agreement on where that 60 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: line is, when that would actually happen, and how it 61 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: would happen, I don't know. Also, we talked about this 62 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: and it would have been a major major story all 63 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: week but for Hurricane Ian coming in. But they're still 64 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: this great who'd done it? Associated with the nordstream pipelines, 65 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: and Joe Biden also discussed that just now and said 66 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: it was a deliberate act of sabotage, which seems clear. 67 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: Listen to this, it was a deliberate act of sabotage. 68 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: And now the Russians are pumping out disinformation lines. We're 69 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 1: work with our allies to get to the bottom exactly 70 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: what it precisely would happened in my direction, I've already 71 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: begun to help our allies enhance the protectionist critical infrastructure, 72 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: and at the appropriate moment, when things calm down, we're 73 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: going to be sending divers down to find out exactly 74 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: what happened. So we don't know that yet exactly, but 75 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: we're not. Just don't listen to what Putin is saying. 76 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: What he's saying, we know it's not true. The biggest challenge, 77 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: I would say in general, Buck, is whatever your politics are. 78 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: Even listening to Joe Biden make all of those comments, 79 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: he sounds like a week and enfeebled person. And we 80 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: know this week he tried to say hi to a 81 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: dead congresswoman and he couldn't find his way off the 82 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: stage multiple times. We are dealing right now with one 83 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: of the most dangerous moments in modern global history. I 84 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: think it's fair to say, certainly in the twenty first century, 85 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: in terms of the geopolitical significance of what's going on 86 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: and the danger World War three is truly looming out there. 87 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: Do you feel at all like Biden is up to 88 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: making intelligent, reasoned decisions as it pertains to this situation 89 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: at all, because I don't know it. And when you 90 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: hear him saying outright that we will never accept Russia's 91 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: seizure of any territory. Russia had a referendum in Crimea, 92 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: what seven years ago now and having to go back, 93 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: I mean it's been a while, they've already they already took. 94 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: So is Crimea a part of this will never accept 95 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: this of your creating in territory is the dawn Bass 96 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: region of Eastern Ukraine part of this as well. I mean, 97 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: Putin said, in response to a couple things. One on 98 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: the pipeline blast issue, he has accused Western elites. He 99 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: gave a speech announcing these referendum areas that are effectively 100 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 1: the border regions of eastern and southern Ukraine that now 101 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,919 Speaker 1: connects there's a kind of a half moon, if you will, 102 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: of Russian seas territory that connects Crimea to the Russian 103 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: Federation now by land bridge. Because it's all it's all contiguous. 104 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: So Putin warned that Western elites are adopting outright Satanism 105 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: by blaming them for the nord blaming Russia for the 106 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: Nord stream gas pipeline blast. Everyone's saying blast. By the way, 107 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: just to be clear, there's no one who's saying this 108 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: stuff happens man. Pipeline's complicated. Everyone saying sabotage. And Putin 109 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: also said that the Unit Ided States had set a 110 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 1: precedent in nuclear usage by dropping atomic bombs on Japan. Now, okay, 111 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: we can keep saying this is saber rattling. We can 112 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: keep saying. You know, people are also saying pudent crazy 113 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: is not the right word to use malevolent, insidious, but 114 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: he is clearly a crafty individual. He you know, this 115 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: is not like North Korea where he came into into 116 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: power because of who his father was. It's effectively, as 117 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: we know, a monarchy. Um, this is a guy who 118 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: made his way to the pinnacle of power in Russia. 119 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: So bad guy, yes, crazy guy? Or remember remember the 120 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: movie Speed? Remember that kea reason that's one of my 121 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: favorite I mean, The Matrix is the best Keanu Reeves movie. 122 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: You're John Wick fans, I respect you. I like John 123 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: Wick two. The Matrix one is better than John Wick one. 124 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: You can fight with me all day on this. I'm right. Um. 125 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: But Speed was a was a fun flick. I bring 126 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: it up. That was one of her one of her 127 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: best moments because there's a scene with Dennis Hopper, remember 128 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: Dennis Hoppers And they say that he's seated in the 129 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,679 Speaker 1: crazy but not stupid section. Putin is not even seated 130 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: in the sorry. Putin is in the not crazy and 131 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: not stupid section. He's a guy who maybe seems a 132 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: little bit off to people, but he's actually very cunning, 133 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: very strategic and how he approaches things, and so that's 134 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,679 Speaker 1: why I mean the usage of Putin as his figure. 135 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: We can just ignore everything he says. Okay, but how 136 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: long do we think a war is gonna be able 137 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: to grind on where we give billions of dollars to 138 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: his enemy here? And look, we're not far away from 139 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: in theory the winter season arriving there, in which case 140 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: everybody's just entrenched and things can't move very much. Right, 141 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: we're probably six weeks eight weeks away in Europe. Remember 142 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: they didn't invade until the end of February because they 143 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: had to wait out the snow season to be able 144 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: to even move. So I think the point is well taken. 145 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: How many years potentially of trench warfare could we be 146 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: dealing with here? And at what point does Putin get 147 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: frustrated enough to basically use an accelerant here and decide 148 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: that he's going to do something that takes us to 149 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: the next level and require us to figure out and 150 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: determine what our response is going to, Because what do 151 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: you think what would we do? Let's let's play this 152 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: out if he used a localized nuke, right, not a 153 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: tactical nuct but low yield nuclear weapon. Yeah, what do 154 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: we do? Like? What good options do we have we 155 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: have protocol. I mean, I'm sure you could roll out 156 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: thousands of pages of highly classified response from the Pentagon, 157 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: you know, whatever levels of the basement there they're keeping 158 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: these things in. It's actually going to be kept obviously electronically, 159 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: not a hard copy of point or actually both. Yeah, 160 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: what do you think what we would do though? I mean, 161 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: like my point is that we have doctrine, but doctrine 162 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: is just like a suggestion box. Yes, doctrine is we 163 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: think we would do this, but in the moment it's 164 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: not really clear. And look at the leadership we have. 165 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I think we have people who I know, 166 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: they're always trashing Trump, you know, and saying, oh, he's 167 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: not smart, he's not a reader, he watches too much TV. Whatever. 168 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: Trump at a gut level had brilliant political instincts, you know, 169 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: his political instincts about people were very sound, particularly about 170 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: a lot of the adversaries that we have globally. Remember 171 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: he got on all that all that media hubbub because 172 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: Trump said, look, putin what he's done. I mean he said, genius, 173 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: sarcastically what he was talking about the Russian invasion and 174 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: he sees putin as what I was saying, somebody who 175 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: is is KG. I mean it might seem crazy to people, 176 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: but it's actually somebody who has a totally different value 177 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: system that he's approaching and a totally different strategic endpoint 178 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: that he's trying to get to. I don't I don't 179 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: know what we would do, and I don't know what 180 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: the Biden administration really thinks is going to happen here 181 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: other than the continuation of the status quo, which is 182 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: that we fund all of this stuff that's going up, 183 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: but the pipeline getting blown up. I mean, this is 184 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: an escalation one way or the other. Whether it's Russia 185 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: or anybody else, it's an escalation. And we don't ever 186 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 1: talk about these things as escalations. We just it's it's 187 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: almost like we're sending checks to Ukraine, you know, not 188 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: having any fighting a proxy war. We're fighting a proxy war. 189 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: And by the way, the ruble I just checked this 190 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: up up twenty eight percent so far this year, YEP 191 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: just shot just sigh of up against the dollar. It 192 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: was up even over forty percent of one, but let's 193 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: call it roughly thirty percent. The ruble has gone up. 194 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: Remember we were going to at the beginning of this cripple. 195 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: The people telling us now, we're not going to abandon 196 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: one inch of Ukrainian territory. By the way, way more 197 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: concerned with Ukraine's borders than America's borders. As we know, 198 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: those same people were telling us in January and February, 199 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: we're going to destroy the Russian economy and they'll bring 200 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: them to their knees and they'll stop this war. The 201 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: Rubles up thirty percent. I just don't think we have 202 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: very many good options, and I certainly don't think we 203 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: have a very good leader to hand and dissect those options. 204 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: And this is part and parcel. And I'm a huge optimist, 205 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: you know this. I think twenty twenty three is going 206 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: to be one of the most challenging years that we 207 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: have had on multifronts. Right. COVID was and everything that 208 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: it created was supremely challenging. But I'm talking about everything 209 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: that Biden is touching is getting worse. And it feels 210 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: to me like things are only going to get worse 211 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three as we come into a third 212 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: full year of Biden. And I don't know where exactly 213 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: that's going, but when you look at inflation, when you 214 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: look at the stock market, when you look at the border, 215 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 1: when you look at crime, and you consider what's going 216 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: on in Ukraine right now, it feels like there are 217 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: an awful lot of potential powder kegs that are about 218 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: to go off. Our government loves to spend money, you 219 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: know that, enough so that we're contending with record setting 220 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: inflation already and it's not going to win anytime soon. 221 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: That reckless spending is driving up the costs on everything 222 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: for your family. There are things you can do right 223 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: now to lower your monthly expenses and mitigate the impact 224 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: of inflation.

We're about to give you 261 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: some updates here in this hour on the ongoing battles 262 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: in the Senate as trend lines continue to break in 263 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: the direction of Republicans, even though a lot of people 264 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: out there have not talked about it to a great extent. 265 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: We'll give you some of the latest data out there, 266 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: polling and gambling wise on many of these elections. But 267 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: one of the guys who writes for me at OutKick, 268 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: Joe Kenzie, has done a fantastic job Buck covering much 269 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: of this transgender insanity as it pertains to athletics, and 270 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: I just want to share a story that he posted 271 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: in the last hour from the state of Vermont. There 272 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: is a boy who has decided that he identifies as 273 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: a girl that is using the women's locker room in 274 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: a high school in Vermont. And this is in Burlington, 275 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: Vermont Randolph High School. The girls complained because a boy 276 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: who identifies as a girl was using the locker room 277 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: and changing with the girls. Parents and athletes raised concerns 278 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: with the school and what do you think happened? The 279 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: transgender protections out there essentially said the biological girls, the 280 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: girls were the problem, and email said there's plenty of space. 281 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: This went out to the school, but they said, because 282 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: of Vermont law, there is quote plenty of space where 283 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: students who feel uncomfortable with the laws may change in privacy. 284 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: If you are a girl who was uncomfortable with there 285 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: being a boy who is using your locker room if 286 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: he identifies as a girl, there is no way for 287 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: you to you u your locker rooms now in Vermont. 288 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 1: And the reason why I think these stories matter, Buck, 289 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: is we hear all the time, oh, there's no issue 290 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: with transgender athletes out there, and then we see we 291 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: got a dude winning the women's swimming championships in the 292 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:18,719 Speaker 1: NC Double A, and slowly this is becoming a reality 293 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: all over the country where boys decide to identify as girls. 294 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: And I mean, it sounds like a made up, ridiculous story, 295 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: but they now are able to have equal access to 296 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 1: women's locker rooms, and when the girls complain, they say, well, 297 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: there's other places you could go if you need privacy 298 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: inside of your locker room. I mean, what kind of 299 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: crazy world are we living in when we're allowing this 300 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: to happen. First of all, the most well, the most 301 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: dishonest argument is when they say men can get pregnant, right, 302 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: I mean the most dishonest. Just one Planned Parenthood doctor 303 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: said yesterday testify you know what. Actually, let's just I 304 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna go here right now, but right play, we 305 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: should just let everyone know. Planned Parenthood of Texas said 306 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: yesterday on Capitol Healthy that yeah, this is a doctor 307 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: saying men can get press. Let's just keep it real simple, 308 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: doctor Kamar. Can biological men become pregnant and give birth? 309 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: So men can have burgnancies, especially trans men. First of all, 310 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: why men can have pregnancies? Like he's asking a question, 311 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: can men be pregnant? The answer is no, Yes, at 312 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 1: some point in the future with new technology or whatever, 313 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: maybe they'll be able to do womb transplants, etc. Were 314 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: discussed that Doctor Marty McCarey told us that yeah, was 315 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: pretty mind blowing and at that point, I guess we 316 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: will have to say it is theoretically possible. It is 317 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: not even theoretically possible right now for this to happen, 318 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 1: meaning it's not even something that science can do. So 319 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: you have doctors who are lying to Congress, but really 320 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: they're trying to change the plain meaning of languages where 321 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: they get into the difference sex and gender and all 322 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: these things that they've just made up five minutes ago. 323 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: But one, so that's the most dishonest argument. But another 324 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: one is to the point about the women changing as 325 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: a high school. Right at this high school, they say 326 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: it's not a big problem. Why do you know the 327 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: most dishonest like leftists especially, see some of these leftist 328 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 1: pundits who want to pretend like you know, they're they're 329 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: tough guys, and they'll be like, yeah, that's right, men 330 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: can get pregnant. It's like no one even cares about this, 331 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: or say it's not even really an issue. That's a lie. Yes, 332 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: it's a lie because they want to amend Title nine 333 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: to include gender identity. So they want to change federal 334 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: law to this end. So if it isn't really a thing, 335 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,679 Speaker 1: and whenever we talk about it, this is just hide 336 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 1: the football, so to speak. This is just you know, oh, 337 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: the moment that they're focused on it, they don't want 338 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: to have to defend it, so they pretend that it's 339 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: not really an issue at all. They're trying to amend 340 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: Title nine. The Biden administration was pushing for this, they 341 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: want to do it. So that's a huge, sweeping federal law. 342 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: And on top of that, I would add notice how 343 00:19:55,680 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: there's never any consideration given to the fee. Put aside 344 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: for a second, we had I spoke to Riley Gaines 345 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,479 Speaker 1: last week, Yes, thank you, sir, former Kentucky swimmer who 346 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: was on with Rand Paul, and she is speaking out 347 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: against the idea of biological men being able to compete 348 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: against women. So usually this debate becomes, well, okay, maybe 349 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: she had to share the podium with a biological male. 350 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 1: She's been a great swimmer, you know. It's it's not 351 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: like there's millions of dollars. It's like that they try 352 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: to minimize losing to a transgender female, as though that's 353 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: not a big deal in this case, and that the 354 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: feelings of the woman should be made secondary to the 355 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: need to be inclusive. That's right, but in this case, 356 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: it's hold on a second, why does a transgender male, 357 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: Why is it so important that a transgender mail has 358 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: to change in a female locker room and such that 359 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: the females in that locker room their feelings are irrelevant. 360 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: That's right. This is what's going on in this high school. 361 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: This is what's happened in many other of these cases. It's, oh, 362 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: you're uncomfortable with this. Women, too bad. We have an 363 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 1: agenda here, we're lunatic leftist, and this is the way 364 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: it's going to be. They never take into account. I mean, 365 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: you know, if I had, like a if I had 366 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: a thirteen or fourteen year old daughter, yes, and there 367 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: was a fourteen year old boy changing next to her, 368 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: I would have a problem with that, and she would 369 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: have a problem with that. And that doesn't make them 370 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: bad people, or doesn't make her a bad person. It 371 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: just means that they're reflecting on the separation of the 372 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 1: genders as a privacy issue and a respect issue. And 373 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,360 Speaker 1: notice that there's no respect given to these women. It's 374 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: obey the trans agenda or else. Yeah, And I think 375 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: one way to think about it for everybody out there. 376 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 1: First of all, the policy as it's written in Vermont 377 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:47,880 Speaker 1: says a transgender student should not be required to use 378 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: a locker room or restroom that conflicts with the student's 379 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: gender identity. So if you are a boy who decides 380 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: that he is a girl, you can not be made 381 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: to use the boy's locker room. But buck to me, 382 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: the way to think about this that makes a lot 383 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: of senses. At some point, tolerance expands to such an 384 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: arena that it becomes intolerant of other people's opinions. And 385 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: that's the good way to think about this. Like, the 386 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: idea is this transgender student has to have his decisions 387 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: tolerated to such an extent that the girl's own opinions 388 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: are considered to be intolerant. Right, at some point you 389 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: have conflicting spheres here where tolerance infringes upon the rights 390 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: of someone else to be comfortable. And for the most part, 391 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: I think everybody out there listening to us right now, 392 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: the idea of a fifteen or sixteen year old boy 393 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: just deciding to say he's a girl and he's going 394 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 1: to use the girl's locker room is crazy. When any 395 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: of us, especially if you are I would say pretty 396 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: much twenty five or older. Anybody who's in twenty five 397 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: or older. Camp if you would ever even tried this, 398 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: you probably would have gotten arrested. Buck If if you 399 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: are an eighteen nineteen year old and you walk into 400 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 1: a women's locker room, for most of human history, you 401 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: would be arrested for trespassing. There will be all sorts 402 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: of laws that you were violating. Now you're protected class. 403 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: This is crazy. Think about this as well, Why is 404 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: it this is all based in this in this high 405 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 1: school story talking about but this has happened in other cases, 406 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: and it's happening all over the country right now. People forget, 407 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 1: I mean, the Obama administration was was really a huge 408 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: surge toward all of this. It was under Obama's second 409 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,679 Speaker 1: term that they I believe he even said, I know 410 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,479 Speaker 1: it was from the White House. I think Obama himself 411 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: essentially threatened to pull federal funding from the school system. 412 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: In was always getting confused. It was North or South 413 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: carolink North Carolina, right, yeah, North Carolina. They were going 414 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: to pull federal funds over the bathroom policy, over this 415 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: exact issue. Over But just as we think through, why 416 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: is it that consideration for the emotional needs of a 417 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,719 Speaker 1: person who is male and has male genitalia exceeds and 418 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: really erases the emotional needs and the need for safety 419 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: and dare I say safe space of women in this case? 420 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: As in, why is it okay if we're all supposed 421 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: to use you know, called we're gonna call you know, 422 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: Bob Jill now and you know you can change your name, fine, 423 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: and they're gonna say, well, we have to use the 424 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: female prone And you can say, all right, maybe that 425 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: that's a matter of respect, But why does the burden 426 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: fall upon women to have to deal with this and 427 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,199 Speaker 1: the emotional discomfort? Why can't the transgender female in this 428 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: case just change with the men. It's not that big 429 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: a deal. They'll say, it's not that big a deal 430 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: to the women. They will not say it's it's not 431 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: that big a deal to the transgender men. And we 432 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: should all ask why. And let's be honest, buck, there's 433 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: also now, because of these stupid policies, gonna be a 434 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,239 Speaker 1: bunch of teenage boys who just decide that they're going 435 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: to identify as girls so they can go change in 436 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,959 Speaker 1: the girl's locker room. I mean, this is this is 437 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 1: the recipe the crazy that we are unspooling here. Does 438 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: not end, and maybe that's what has to ultimately happen, 439 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: is it becomes so ridiculous that we go back to hey, 440 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 1: you know, boys and girls needs change separately. I know 441 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: some some true leftists, and I do talk to them 442 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: occasionally about these things, you know, be off air and 443 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: in places where I'm just trying to get information. And 444 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 1: the real answer to my question, by the way, why 445 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: is it that the women have to you know, we 446 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: ask these questions, we're approaching this rationally. The ultimate answer 447 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: to all of this is that to be a true believer, 448 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: and it almost requires a religious trans like a transformation 449 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: of perception that is religious in nature. A transgender female 450 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: is a woman the exact same way in the in 451 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: the left's mind and the left's methodology, it is a 452 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: woman one hundred percent, no difference. So in their minds, 453 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: the true leftist believes that women who don't want to 454 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: change with a person with male genitals, they're the crazy one. Yeah, 455 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: and I know that that is an upside down. What 456 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: is Buck saying that I'm telling everybody that is the 457 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 1: real belief of the left. It's not that we need 458 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,679 Speaker 1: to make accommodations for trans women. It's that trans women 459 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: are women period, which is why they say men can 460 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: get pregnant. And it's also evidence, I think, buck, of 461 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: how left wing insanity doesn't stop. They always have to 462 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: find something more. It really is a slippery slope. Would 463 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,199 Speaker 1: you have believed a decade ago that we would have 464 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: fights over people who are deciding boys are deciding to 465 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: identify as girls and they get to just walk right 466 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: in the locker room and if you complain, the Vermont 467 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: schools shut down the locker room. Buck, Yeah, I mean 468 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: they're just like, well, the only way we can solve 469 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: this is just not let anybody so women. So the 470 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: women suffer the consequences. The emotional needs and the desire 471 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: to feel safe of women is irrelevant when the transagendas 472 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: at work. That's what the left is tone and here's 473 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: what has to happen. Women have to speak out on 474 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: this sooner or later. Real women like Riley Gaines is 475 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: doing you talk to her on Wednesday?

Yesterday afternoon we get an email 511 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: saying that YouTube has pulled that interview for election misinformation 512 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: and that you can no longer out there watch it 513 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: on YouTube. And what's wild about this is not only 514 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: the censorship, It's that this show often interviews people. And 515 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 1: when we interview political thought leaders and or potential elective 516 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: candidates for office, certainly the former president of the United States, 517 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: How in the world in a democracy, Buck, can you 518 00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: justify taking down an interview one of the most popular 519 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: politicians in the world. Whether you agree or disagree with 520 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: what Trump is saying, the essence of a democracy is 521 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: being able to familiarize yourself with the opinions of people 522 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: who run for us. So we saw this yesterday, we got, 523 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: you know, the official strike notification from YouTube, and it 524 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: seemed to me that also in their guidelines there's this 525 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: there was election misinformation, and we didn't try to correct 526 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: it or something, because obviously we didn't say it. We 527 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: just were talking to the former president of the United 528 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: who maybe the future maybe the future president. So like usually, 529 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: I think we let him have his say. I'm not 530 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:39,959 Speaker 1: gonna sit there and be like, sure, you're not allowed 531 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: to say that. So interesting though, that they really that 532 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: the attitude of the Libs with this stuff is that 533 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: they want to co opt you into doing their bidding. 534 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: It's like, well, you didn't push back hard enough, really, 535 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 1: because they do. They have that pushback hard enough demand 536 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 1: on all the videos of people who said that the 537 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,479 Speaker 1: COVID vaccines were going to eliminate COVID and that they 538 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: were going to be ninety five percent effective. Where are 539 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: the pushback demands on that? I just if they wanted 540 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: to cancel us I would disagree with it clearly, because 541 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: I think at marketplace of ideas is important. But when 542 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: you have guests on and interview them, and they are 543 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: candidates for political office, you should want to have those 544 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,719 Speaker 1: distributed as widely as possible so that the people who 545 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: make decisions when it comes to voting, IEU, me and 546 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: everybody else out there should be able to familiarize yourself 547 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: with the opinions of these candidates as much as possible. 548 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: So the other thing that really strikes me, Buck is 549 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: the people who are screaming that, oh, fascism is out there, 550 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: and uh and and and and oh the awful right 551 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: wing they're actually the totalitarians because they are not allowing 552 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: their uh, their opponents to have their opinions shared. Who 553 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: is actually the threat to demid. Let's think about this. 554 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: We're right in the run up to an election. Yes, 555 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 1: this is clearly not just happening. There's going to be 556 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: other people this happens too as well. And I'm at 557 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,479 Speaker 1: the point where any conservative who has never been you know, 558 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: ding suspended or booted off of Twitter YouTube, I'm like, well, 559 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: what are you doing? Because it's not possible to be 560 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: in these fights, and somehow not ever get throttled or 561 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 1: suspended on Facebook or Twitter in any way. But they 562 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: went back to an old video. I think this is 563 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: one there they're showing everybody we're cracking down. We're cracking down, 564 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: and for some people it's a really you know, we 565 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: don't care. For some people, it's a really important revenue 566 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: in stream. Yeah, their YouTube is their business. For us, 567 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: our radio and podcast is our business. Look buck, when 568 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 1: I ran out kick and they would throttle us down 569 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: and not allow our stories to be shared, it was 570 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: a major impact to our overattom line could cause people 571 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: jobs being able to employe. And also I think that 572 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: hysterical libs are now going and flagging this stuff in 573 00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 1: an effort to create this ground swell of suppression of 574 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: information in the run up to the election. So there's 575 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: you know, this is like do you ever get those 576 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: things on Twitter where they're like, we have received a 577 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: part for a report from Germany that you've violated German 578 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 1: statue two seven five fump Zig And you're like, wait, 579 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: I don't live in German. Yeah, why is Twitter getting 580 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: mad at me because of emails? Too? I don't understand it. 581 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show.

We are a little tired after last night, 590 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: which I know you're never supposed to say all the air, 591 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: but we were out quite a bit. I were talking 592 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: about what happened last night. I went home. We we 593 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: had a little bit of an engagement party here in 594 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: New York and Clay, I must admit, stayed out. Clay, 595 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: he was married with three kids. He stayed out later 596 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: than me. He made it. I outpaced me. I got 597 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 1: sent home early by the fiance. We had an awesome 598 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 1: group of people. Um and uh. It spiraled into a 599 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 1: Irish pub from the engagement party and it was just 600 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: a really fun to go over an Irish pubse we 601 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: did basically take to New York. So for people who 602 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: were listening that don't know the Irish pubs. They're everywhere. Yes, 603 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: Downtown when I started at Fox News, there was there 604 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 1: was an Irish pub before it was torn down for 605 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: a parking garage. There was this one Irish pub that 606 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 1: everyone went to and we had it like a back room, 607 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: and that was where all the Fox people would hang out. 608 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: But those are the early years of Fox. It was 609 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: so fun the first time two thousand and seven. So 610 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: did you come when you came to Fox from Way Antonio, Texas? 611 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 1: So was it a culture shock for you to suddenly 612 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: be in New York City? Like, Well, I'm an East Coaster. 613 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: I grew up in South Carolina. I worked there for 614 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: five years after college, then did San Antonio, and I 615 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 1: always wanted New York. That was my dream. Well, San 616 00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: Antonio like as a city, I always hear people say 617 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: great things about it, like it was super safe, family friendly, 618 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 1: quality of life, very high, y'all. But you would love it. 619 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 1: There are big parties there. They carried me on her shoulder. 620 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 1: But yeah, right a year ago, you would have liked. 621 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 1: Now you're engaged and slowing down a little bit, I'm glad. 622 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,760 Speaker 1: I'm proud of you. No, it was so fun because 623 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: they love their faith, which is important to me. And 624 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: they loved a party, which is important to me. So 625 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: it's like you went to South Carolina exactly, to a 626 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: southern school. Yeah, we're sec double grads here, so I 627 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: can't stay out as late as I used to, but 628 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: I like to have fun and the faith aspect was 629 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: great there. It was a wonderful place. So we have 630 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: this fabulous book here. It is in studio with this 631 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,959 Speaker 1: I'm so glad you were born, celebrating who you are. 632 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: It's a kid's book. Yes, Clay has copies. His kids 633 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 1: are a little old. Maybe for the eight year old, 634 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 1: I think could handle this a little bit. So a 635 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: second grader. I've got fourteen, I've got twelve, and I've 636 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: got eight. There just had a couple of birthdays, so 637 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: I got to make sure I got that right. I 638 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 1: did tell you this this message though, even if you 639 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: don't read the book to them, the message I'm so 640 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:04,800 Speaker 1: glad you were born to something my mom said to 641 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,280 Speaker 1: us on our birthdays, which, if you think about it, 642 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: means a little bit more than just happy birthday. Even 643 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: though happy birthday is great, it's something that you hear 644 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: every birthday and everyone says it I'm so glad you 645 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 1: were born, is like, okay, wait a minute. I have 646 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: to stop and think that's pretty cool that I was 647 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: born on this day and I'm going to make a 648 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: big difference, and I can change the world. God can 649 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 1: use me to change the world. You have a young daughter, 650 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: I do. She's six and a half. How much did 651 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: that motivate wanting to write a children's book? You know 652 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: what it's like as a parent. Yeah, you have three boys, 653 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 1: that's right, so six and a half. My first two books, 654 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: my first two children's books were lyrical and like sappy sweet. 655 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 1: What I was going through and I was pregnant. I 656 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: was so glad I had her, and we had gone 657 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: through a lot. I'd tried to get pregnant, I had 658 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:47,879 Speaker 1: a miscarriage, and then three months later I conceived Hayden. 659 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: So I knew why I had gone through that bad place, 660 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: because I wouldn't have Hayden if it weren't for that 661 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: really tough time. And this book is just about now 662 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: I'm six year, six and a half years past that, 663 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: and how much I love being a mom. It's so fun. 664 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: I just want her to come home. You know, we 665 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 1: all grew up in the in the generation where our 666 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: parents were so tough, and I grew up in South Carolina. 667 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: There were spankings, you know, and I mean not too hard. 668 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 1: I was a girl and I rarely you yes, I do, 669 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 1: and to pick it out right. Actually, my mom used 670 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 1: to fly swatter and my dad one time when we 671 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 1: used a bell, usually it was his hand, and it 672 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 1: hurt him more than it hurt me. And I saw that. 673 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 1: I knew that, but it was it was rare. My brother, however, 674 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: probably every day. Um, but now you know, I lived, 675 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: he did. He did. Now I'm in New York and 676 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 1: that's just not the way that we punish our children. 677 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: It's more time timeouts. I'm grateful that I have a 678 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 1: really pretty fairly easy child to raise. So I mean, 679 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: I just kind of raised my voice a little bit. 680 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: She calls it the dark voice, and then um, like 681 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 1: I feel like Darth Vader, but um, and then she 682 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 1: starts crying. But I love her so much and we 683 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: just have fun. We have dance parties in the kitchen. 684 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: So she picked out the illustrator for this book. We 685 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: put all the pictures on the floor of the illustrator 686 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: that the publisher sent me that were available at the time, 687 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 1: and so I said, Hayden, which one do you like? 688 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 1: And thankfully she picked the one I was really drawn to. 689 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: So this is our illustrator, Kim Barnes, and Hayden loves 690 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: this one picture in the book. Hayden, we talked to 691 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 1: the illustrator about the dance parties and how important they 692 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 1: were for us to show the dance parties in the 693 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 1: kitchen because that's where we have ours, and kind of 694 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: they trail off into the living room. But this the 695 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 1: illustrator drew a picture of a fence in the backyard 696 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 1: in their backyard, and she lets her children paint use 697 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: real paint the fence. Yeah, I mean it covers the 698 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,919 Speaker 1: whole backyard like my dad would have. I definitely would 699 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: have gotten the belt for that one, right, but um yeah. 700 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: So she my daughter said I really want to do that, 701 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, we rent a house out in 702 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,400 Speaker 1: Long Island from one of my friends and she probably 703 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: would kick us out if we painted her fence, So 704 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: we're not doing that. But I just love the illustrator. 705 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 1: I love the message and I'm at the end of 706 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: the book the children yell out, I'm so glad I 707 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 1: was born you're about to go through this gun engaged.

We've 731 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,439 Speaker 1: got and you have your sister. I think you said 732 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,479 Speaker 1: as in Charleston. You were going to do a book 733 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 1: signing in Charleston. Yes, on King Street, right in downtown Charleston. 734 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: So what are you hearing from people in South Carolina 735 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 1: as they prepare for Hurricane Ian, which is now making landfall. 736 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 1: No one at home can see this, but I'm getting 737 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 1: all these text messages and all these pictures and people 738 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 1: who left their cars in their driveways. But everything looks okay. 739 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I don't know one person 740 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,879 Speaker 1: that left. And we were all panicking. This is our 741 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: immediate family, in our family text chain. And my sister 742 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: finally wrote us back because we were all on her, like, 743 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 1: get out, move your car. The garages are free right now. 744 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: You can move your car into one of the third 745 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 1: fourth deck of the garage. She just wrote us for 746 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:55,439 Speaker 1: the first time in like fifteen hours. All is well here. 747 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:59,479 Speaker 1: Car is fine, just without power. So my dad writes back, 748 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: good answer, prayers next time leave exclamation exclamation, exclamation. She's 749 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: a school teacher there and say she's with all of 750 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 1: her friends. And you know, we were interviewed Rick Scott 751 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: this morning. He's not leaving. I mean, he's the senator. 752 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: He can't leave because he wants to take care of 753 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: his people. He said his mom was staying. He bought 754 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: his mom a house when he became a senator and 755 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: had enough money, which is a sweet story. So he 756 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 1: said he and his mom were staying. He was going 757 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 1: to go pick her up. My sister staying. My sister's 758 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: actually in Mount Pleasant. So downtown Charleston's that peninsula, go 759 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: over the Cooper River Bridge, yea, and then you run 760 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,839 Speaker 1: into Mount Pleasant and she's right there, but she's two 761 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:36,880 Speaker 1: stories up. She lives in an apartment building. But for 762 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: people who haven't been to Charleston, they've seen certainly that 763 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: there's a very low sea level in many parts of Florida. 764 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,279 Speaker 1: Charleston is almost underwater. Yeah, I mean below sea level. 765 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: I just looked it up before we got here, and 766 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is correct, but because this 767 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 1: is just a Google search, but it set eight feet 768 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 1: above sea level. The surge is supposed to be like 769 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 1: between seven and nine. Yeah, so it could go above. 770 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 1: My sister when she lived downtown, she was driving through 771 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:00,720 Speaker 1: the streets just to try to get to her house 772 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: and her car was completely flooded. She lost the car. 773 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 1: It was my mom's old car. This is right after college. 774 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,239 Speaker 1: She just left her left her car there in the 775 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: middle of the road and had to walk out of 776 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,720 Speaker 1: the car. So even with a minor storm, it floods. 777 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: So hopefully people got out of Charleston at least and 778 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: went inland. I mean with Florida, we know that that's 779 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: they're they're they're always thinking about and ready for hurricane season. 780 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: What was the last time we've had We've had some others, 781 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 1: but Hugo was the big one. And what we learned 782 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: about Hugo, as devastating as it was there is have 783 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: y'all ever been to Isle of Palms or Wild Dunes 784 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 1: or Sullivan's Island, Yes, right outside of Charleston. Um. What 785 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 1: we learned it wiped out those beaches and those were 786 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: like it was so fun. It was old school beach 787 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,360 Speaker 1: houses like where you would go and there's like grit 788 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 1: and sand on the on the floor and just old 789 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: furniture that those were all demolished, and they built these 790 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: monstrosities on that property. And many people got made a 791 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: lot of money because they sold their houses and made 792 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,879 Speaker 1: these you know, built these huge properties, and they they 793 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 1: built them higher so they're own stilts. So you park 794 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: your car underneath the house, and then on the first 795 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,240 Speaker 1: floor of the bedrooms and the top floor kitchen, din 796 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: and all that so you can overlook the ocean. So 797 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: now it's beautiful. Those you know, fifty thousand dollar houses 798 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 1: are now multimillion dollar houses. That's happened all over the 799 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: South in many different beach communities where they initially built 800 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: like the school. Yeah, like down in Florida, like along 801 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: the Florida Gulf Coast, used to be the Redneck riviera. 802 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,800 Speaker 1: Those things didn't cost anything, and now they're all gone. 803 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 1: It's you know, multimillion. Yeah. Um, Buck's got to come 804 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: down there. He hasn't been, you know, Bucket never been 805 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,240 Speaker 1: really to the South at all. Uh in like Alaba, 806 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: I'm talking about like Alabama. I'm not it's from Virginia. Yeah, 807 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 1: I'm from like Charlotte. I'm talking from you know, northern Virginia. 808 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: I'm talking about like Alabama, Mississippi. That's still kind of 809 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Florida doesn't depends on what part of Florida 810 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 1: you're in. It can be from time in these places, 811 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 1: but only on military bases. But you know that means 812 00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 1: y'all are a good team. You represent well. I've got 813 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 1: him down out for college football on a Southern military base. 814 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: You definitely, you definitely know you're in the South. Brag 815 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: on Buck a little bit. Buck went to high school 816 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,359 Speaker 1: at and y'all don't know this. In the South, the 817 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 1: hardest school to get into in the city, and it's 818 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 1: all scholarship and you you cannot get in unless you 819 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 1: are top of your class. I know people out on 820 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: Long Island that commute in high schoolers that drive, that 821 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: ride the train for an hour to get into the 822 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 1: city just so they can go to reach us.
