And I put up a poll question 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: that for those of you who are big college football 5 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: fans and also big interested in politics people, which I 6 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: think is a I know actually is a huge, huge 7 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: number of you, which was the worst decision Nico to UCLA, 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: Sorry to the UCLA fans out there, or Kamala Harris 9 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: picking Tim Walls. It is up on my Twitter page 10 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 1: at Clay Travis. You can go vote there. Also want 11 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,319 Speaker 1: to thank you guys here. As we start off our 12 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: number two, the numbers on the YouTube page were through 13 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 1: the roof. Now partly this is because we're finally starting 14 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: to get somewhat treated fairly. We got banned from YouTube 15 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: all the time. We've talked about the fact that they 16 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: took down our interview with with Ran Paul with President Trump. 17 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: President Trump just settled for twenty four point six million dollars, 18 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,119 Speaker 1: I think over YouTube banning him. He's going to use 19 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: the money to build the new dining room that he's 20 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: building off the patio there at the White House, which 21 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,320 Speaker 1: is very funny and good for him. But we got 22 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: a digital summary and we added a lot of YouTube. 23 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: This is just in September. I saw this. Our total 24 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: views on YouTube basically tripled in the month of September. 25 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: So that's a credit to you guys. Again, I don't 26 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: think it's coincidental. The algorithm is I got so many 27 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: thoughts on algorithms in general. The algorithm gives you whatever 28 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: you want the algorithm to give you. So YouTube could decide, hey, 29 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck videos are the most popular thing on 30 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: the planet, and it would feed those videos to you 31 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: over and over and over again. Or they can say, hey, 32 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck are the worst people on the planet 33 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: and you would never be able to find us. So 34 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: when people say, well the algorithm, yeah, a person programs 35 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: the algorithm. You can create an algorithm to do anything. 36 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: This is my fear in many ways. By the way, 37 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: about AI, everybody says, well, the AI is doing, the 38 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: AI is going to be a reflection of whatever is 39 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: put in and whatever guardrails are put in place. So 40 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: what I suspect will end up seeing this is my 41 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: AI prediction is it looks like XAI, which is Elon 42 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: Musk's AI company is going to be the Fox News 43 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: of AI, and then everybody else is going to be 44 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: left wing AI. So I suspect that, like many other 45 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: things in life, you will end up choosing the AI 46 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: that most you believe reflects your worldview, and that will 47 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: actually lead the AI to becoming even more polarized because 48 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: that will be the business model. That's my general thought. Now, 49 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest. I didn't watch a lot of news. 50 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: I'm a sports guy. I didn't watch a lot of 51 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: news on television. I've always been a reader and I 52 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 1: never trust video. I always have known that because I'm 53 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: in television that I love doing sports television, for instance, 54 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: but I've always known that it's hard to get great 55 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: in depth knowledge from television on anything. This is the 56 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: reality television is a SoundBite era. And I always thought 57 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: it was funny because I've always done Radio two and 58 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: people say, Okay, what's the difference between writing, which is 59 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: where I started and by the way, please go buy 60 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: my new book Balls. I'm gonna talk about this a 61 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: little bit more later in the week, but it's up 62 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: pre ordered. I want this thing to be everywhere. I 63 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: think it's important, but people say, what's the different sween 64 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: writing radio and TV. Writing for me is just me 65 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 1: in front of a computer screen. Every word is mine 66 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: and there's nobody else helping, So for better or worse, 67 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: I have complete control of every argument that I make 68 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: in a written article. And that is why, in many ways, 69 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: writing is still my favorite discipline because it's just me 70 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: sitting in front of a computer screen and there's no 71 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: one else to help, And for better or worse, it's 72 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: it's on me to make an argument, or to write 73 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: a column, or to write a book that hopefully is 74 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: entertaining and helps to make people think. On a deeper level, 75 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: Radio we have the luxury of time, so I can 76 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: sit with you for three hours every day, but can 77 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: sit with you for three hours every day. Over time, 78 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: we become in some ways a family because you have 79 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: fifteen hours a week to spend with us, and we 80 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: love all of you that spend that much time. But 81 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: you're going to learn about our families. You're gonna learn 82 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: about the things that we like, the serious things, the 83 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: not serious things. We hang out. It's basically just one 84 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: long form conversation. First time I did television, I did television. 85 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: I came out in a studio and they were like, 86 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: that was amazing. 87 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: How was that so good? That was so great? 88 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: I was like, it's three minutes. I wish my wife 89 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: had that standard. There you go, but I'm but it's 90 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: three minutes. Like you go on television and you give 91 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: a couple of takes and then you're gone. And there 92 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: is not a great deal of nuance or complexity or 93 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,679 Speaker 1: depth that television can convey. And so I was always 94 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: a little bit skeptical of television in general when it 95 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: comes to complicated issues. And so I didn't watch I 96 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: didn't watch a lot of CNN. I've never watched MSNBC. 97 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: But I didn't really pay much attention to Fox News. 98 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: I now think it's funny. Fox News is the most 99 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: I now pay a lot more attention to news. You 100 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: have to be crazy to watch MSNBC. I'm not like 101 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: I watch MSNBC. I read the New York Times, the 102 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: Washington Post, so to kind of have some sense of 103 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 1: what's going on. 104 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 2: They live in a crazy world. 105 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: People say, oh, Fox News, it's super right, when Fox 106 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: News is just normal. And this is what they did 107 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: to me, and this is what they try to do 108 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: to anybody like me. I've talked about this before. They 109 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: try to always label me controversial. If you read any 110 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: article about me or somebody's talking about me, within thirty seconds, 111 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: they will say, Clay the controversial sometimes firebrand right wing 112 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: conservative political commentator. I don't think I'm controversial at all. 113 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: I say this. 114 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,679 Speaker 1: I've been saying this for fifteen years now, as people 115 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: have constantly labeled me controversial. There's nothing wrong with controversy, 116 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: but I don't think most of my comments or opinions 117 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: are remotely controversial. They've labeled me super controversial for saying 118 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: men shouldn't play in women's sports, And again, I have 119 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with controversy, but when you are on the 120 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: side of eighty or ninety percent of people, what's controversial 121 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: is the other side. But that is an emblematic of 122 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: how they took over the culture. Is they label anyone, 123 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: anyone at all who is just not left wing. You're 124 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: considered to be right wing, and they try to label 125 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: you as controversial, and it. 126 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 2: Has an impact. 127 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: I give tremendous credit to iHeart for hosting this show, 128 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: but the most left wing industry in the country is advertising. 129 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: This show's audience is massive across all five hundred and 130 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: fifty five stations right now. There are millions of you 131 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: that will listen to me today on this program. Y'all 132 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: ever think about the fact that we've never had a 133 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: car advertisement on this program. Flip on MSNBC. Every car 134 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: brand in America advertises on MSNBC. We've never had a 135 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: restaurant on this program. Flip on CNN. Every restaurant in 136 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: America advertises on those brands. And I'm thinking about this 137 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: a lot because I'm going to be potentially starting a 138 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: new media company, and when you rely on media companies 139 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: being founded and funded and existing or even having success 140 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: based on advertising dollars, the left has been brilliant in 141 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: going after anybody who advertises on anything other than far 142 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: left wing and labeling them controversial to try to create 143 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: the idea that brands can't be associated with people like me, 144 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 1: or people like Buck or frankly, people like you. Think 145 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: about that, never a car, never a restaurant in the 146 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: entire history of us being on this program. 147 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: It's crazy, right. 148 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 1: Well, I think it ties in with the story that 149 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: I want to talk about this morning. I'm reading an 150 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: American Eagle headline American Eagle gained customers after their Sydney 151 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: Sweeney ads. Stock price has also skyrocketed. It's nearly doubled 152 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: since they debuted this ad. So if you had just said, hey, 153 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: that's a pretty girl in jeans, that's probably going to work, 154 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: and you went and bought them there an eagle stock, 155 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: you've doubled your money just in the last few months, 156 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: nearly over this. But I thought this was interesting. This 157 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: is again from the Wall Street Journal. They said that 158 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: they have added nearly a million customers since they debuted 159 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: the Sydney Sweeney ads, and not only that, they have 160 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: immediately sold out. And I don't even know what these 161 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: things are. I'm not exactly the hippus person on the 162 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: planet when it comes to clothes. 163 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 2: As many of. 164 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: You know, the Sweeney cinched waist denim jacket sold out 165 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: in one day, and the Sydney gene and I'm reading 166 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: from the Wall Street Journal, this is not my description. 167 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: An ultra wide leg with a butterfly on the back 168 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: pocket sold out in a week. They added a million customers, 169 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: and they immediately sold out of everything that she was 170 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: wearing in the ads.

Super interesting because I 334 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: actually was out to dinner recently with my son and 335 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: he got up to go to the bathroom and he 336 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: left his phone on the table. And this is my 337 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: fifteen year old, so he's only had a cell phone 338 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 1: for about a year. Because we don't give cell phones 339 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: to the kids until they're fourteen, and that might have 340 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: even been too young, but I feel like that's one 341 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 1: of the parenting decisions we got right, because a lot 342 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: of people give their kids cell phones way too young, 343 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 1: and we're finding out that there are significant consequences for that. 344 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: And I said, no, no, no, you can't ever leave 345 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 1: your cell phone at a table, and even if you're 346 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: going to the bathroom, even if you're going somewhere for 347 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: a short period of time, even if you think you're 348 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: in a safe place, somebody will steal it. And the 349 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: culture of many countries that is not the case. You 350 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: can just leave your things and you would never have 351 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 1: to worry about it being stolen. And I was talking 352 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: about this in the context yesterday when we played the 353 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: cut of Don Lemon saying why are white men so violent? 354 00:20:55,760 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 1: And I said, first of all, using race as a 355 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: proxy for criticism is not healthy, because as soon as 356 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 1: you use race as a criticism for proxy, a lot 357 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 1: of people just dial out. This was my big thing 358 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: with Colin Kaepernick when he protested in the NFL nine 359 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: years ago and he said, well, police are just killing 360 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: black men, leaving aside the fact. 361 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 2: That it wasn't true. 362 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: If he had protested and said, hey, police are killing 363 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: too many people, then it would have been a more 364 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: interesting conversation. I don't think that's true. Unfortunately. I think 365 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: police are thrust into constant acts of violence, and as 366 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 1: we've talked about on this show, body cameras are actually 367 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: showing you that almost every time police fire their weapons, 368 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: they're in incredible danger and if they fire their weapons 369 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: and they shouldn't have, everybody sees it and says, boy, 370 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 1: that was unnecessary. But it's a tiny number of actual 371 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: firearms usage by police that is in any way potentially 372 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: not justified escalation of force. But if Kaepernick had said, hey, this, 373 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: we should have a national conversation about police violence. As 374 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: I have talked about quite a lot, and this was 375 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 1: controversial to say back then, seventy five percent of people 376 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: that are shot and killed by police are white, Asian 377 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: and Hispanic. That blows people's minds. That's data, according to 378 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: the Washington Post police shooting database, that seventy five percent 379 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: of people shot and killed by police are white, Asian 380 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: or Hispanic. Everybody like pauses and says, really is that true? 381 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? It is. 382 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: Now you can say, well, you know, black people are 383 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: around twelve or thirteen percent of the population, so they're 384 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: getting shot outside per capita of what the data would reflect. 385 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 1: They should be just based on raw numbers. But then 386 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: you go into the data, as Don Lemon did not, 387 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: and you say, okay, well, hold on a minute, what 388 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: percentage of violent crimes are committed by black people? Huge 389 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 1: percentages In fact, if you go into the data, black 390 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: men commit nearly half of all murders and almost all 391 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: of the victims of black male violence are black male 392 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: And so I actually asked this question on Twitter yesterday 393 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: and some of the responses were very interesting. But I 394 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: want to share it with you because it came out 395 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: of the Don Lemon video where he's lecturing white men, 396 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: white men, why are you so violent? And I said, well, 397 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: you've never make a video lecturing black men and asking 398 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: why black men are so violent? And if I made 399 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 1: that video, as I said yesterday on the program, people 400 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: would say, oh, it's super racist. Look here's a white 401 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: guy lecturing black men. I don't think it's effective to 402 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: single out racial groups and lecture them, but I do 403 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 1: think data matters. 404 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 2: And in fact, if you rank. 405 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: Violent crime based on male violent crime, black men are 406 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: the most violent. 407 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 2: And this is. 408 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: Murder, which is a crime we know occur. So Black 409 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: men are statistically the most violent men in America. Hispanic 410 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: men are statistically the second most violent men in America. 411 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: White men, the people that Don Lemon was lecturing, are 412 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: actually the third most violent men in America. Asian men 413 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: almost no violence. What do you think that is, shouldn't 414 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: and rational, reasonable American society sit and look at those 415 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: data sets. These are real facts. Who's being murdered. If 416 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: I said to you, hey, you know what, We're going 417 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 1: to solve murder in this country, and we're going to 418 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: focus all of our resources on Asian men, and we're 419 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,439 Speaker 1: going to take the Asian male murder rate down to 420 00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 1: virtually zero, the data wouldn't really change very much because 421 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: there's almost no Asian murder. You would still have ninety 422 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: seven percent of the murder rate in the country. Roughly, 423 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: if we eliminated every Asian murder in the country, if 424 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: we eliminated every Black murder in the country, we would 425 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 1: have about a fifty percent decline in murder. So if 426 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: you were looking at the raw data set and you 427 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: were saying, hey, how do we fix violent crime? With 428 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: murder being the apex the top of the most violent 429 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: crimes in America, how do. 430 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 2: We fix that? 431 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,919 Speaker 1: You would say, Well, you don't spend much time on 432 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: Asian people. You would spend more time policing in black communities, 433 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 1: secondarily Hispanic communities, third white communities, fourth Asian communities. What 434 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: a more interesting question would be, why are Asian rates 435 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,679 Speaker 1: of violent crime so low in the unit United States. 436 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 1: Wouldn't a rational, reasonable American conversation ensue from that? Why 437 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: do Asian men commit comparatively almost no violence? And by 438 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: the way, there are lots of poor Asian men, lots 439 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:26,479 Speaker 1: of recent immigrants, lots of low education families that are 440 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: raising kids that don't have a lot of advantages. So 441 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: you go statistically and look at average income for poor 442 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: immigrant communities of Asians, and you compare them to black communities. Say, 443 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: in New York City, the rate of violence in Black 444 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: communities is through the roof. The rate of violence in 445 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: Asian communities is virtually non existent. Why shouldn't we ask 446 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 1: those questions? Shouldn't we have a real, rational, reasonable, knowledgeable 447 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: conversation about that? If our goal, my goal, your goal, 448 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: all of our goals, regardless of our racial groups, would 449 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: be hey. I think less murder would be a good thing. 450 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: I think less violent crime would be a good thing. 451 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 1: I think more kids being safe on the streets playing 452 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: after dark would be a good thing. I think more 453 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: of our wives, our sisters, our mothers, more of them 454 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: being able our girlfriends, more of them being able to 455 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: go for a jog at night, in any American city 456 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: without having to worry about being dragged out the street 457 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: and right, that would be a good thing. Less violent crime, 458 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: crazy proposition here would be a great thing for Americans 459 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: of all different backgrounds. Why is there no violent crime 460 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: in Asian communities? My answer would be two things. Dads 461 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: are at home. Because I think the number one thing. 462 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: If you told me the number one thing, Clay, you 463 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: have a magic one you can change anything, it would 464 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: be everybody gets raised in a nuclear your family with 465 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: dad and mom at home. I know that's not possible. 466 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: I'm not attacking single parents out there, male or female. 467 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: I'm just saying the data correlates if you put dad 468 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: at home, the rate of violent behavior by young men 469 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: collapses across all racial groups. So number one, I think 470 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: the data, if we went and looked at it would 471 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: show dads at home in nuclear families are the best 472 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:36,719 Speaker 1: possible foundation for kids to be successful. Dad's at home. Second, 473 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: education is of paramount importance in the culture of the 474 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: Asian community, more so than any other racial group. Asian 475 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: families focus on education as a cultural construct. Maybe worldwide 476 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,959 Speaker 1: I can't speak to it, but certainly in the United States, 477 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: dads at home education. 478 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 2: Now, I think if you. 479 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: Correlate that, you would see that if you have those 480 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: two things, the violent crime rate for young men is 481 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: virtually nonexistent. So would a rational, reasonable society say we 482 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: should do everything possible to try to get more dads 483 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: at home and to try to get education as the 484 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: foundation of cultural success in this country. Now that's my philosophy. 485 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: You may be out there and you might say, Okay, 486 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: there's something else that's going on here. But if we 487 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: just look at the data sets violent crime Black men 488 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: number one, Hispanic man number two, White men number three, 489 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: Asian men number four. What if America had the Asian 490 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: male violent crime rate nationwide, America would be one of 491 00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: the safest countries in the world. I take away from 492 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: looking at that data set, like Don Lemons, is, I'm 493 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: gonna lecture the third most violent group, white men, and 494 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: just tell you why you're the worst. My takeaway is, 495 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: why shouldn't we all aspire to have the same violent 496 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: crime rate of the Asian community. What are they doing right? 497 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: And how do we take what they're doing right and 498 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: apply it to the nation. 499 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 2: I bet you won't. 500 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: Hear that conversation anywhere else in America. That analysis. Do 501 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: you know why, because so much of our conversation in 502 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: the country is terrified to acknowledge race unless it's to 503 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: say racism is bad. Yeah, racism is bad. Don't judge 504 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: people based on the color of their skin. That is stupid. 505 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: But shouldn't we use data sets that involve race to 506 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: try to drive the best possible outcomes for everybody of 507 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: every race. And if Asian men are by far the 508 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: least violent in the United States, isn't it fair to ask, hey, 509 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: what are Asian families doing that is creating a culture 510 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: that almost doesn't have violence at all? Because again, think 511 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: about it, if we had a culture of Asian violence 512 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: across the entirety of the United States the same rate, 513 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: there would be no crime of a violent nature in 514 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: this country. I think there's a great deal of value 515 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: in looking at it and saying, hey, how do we 516 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: learn from this, what can we take from it? And 517 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: how do we as a society implement policies that try 518 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: to create more of what the Asian family, what the 519 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: Asian culture is creating when it comes to violence across everybody, white, Black, Asian, 520 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: and Hispanic, that would actually be using diversity as a 521 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: strength because it's something that's very positive, and we're trying 522 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: to apply the lessons of that to the entirety of 523 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: the country. Violent crime is a choice. We're allowing it, 524 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: not letting people walk around in the streets after dark. 525 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: When I was in Memphis and I had to go 526 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: buy a car charger, and the lady at the front 527 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: desk said, are you sure you want to do that? 528 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: Are you sure you want to get it's eight o'clock. 529 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: Are you sure you want to go out after dark 530 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: and go buy a car charger in Memphis? We're choosing 531 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 1: to live in a society like this. We don't have to. 532 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: We could fix it, We really could. We'll take some 533 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: of your calls. We'll continue to roll as we are 534 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: diving into the program here. Also, my wife is still 535 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: firing away about Cozy Earth. And again, not a blame guy, 536 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: but this is all Ali's fault. I'll explain at the 537 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,479 Speaker 1: end of the hour. But in the meantime, you've got 538 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: a great family memories.

Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. 570 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: Vice President Jade Vance currently addressing the media about the 571 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: government shutdown from the White House, and I don't know 572 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: how many of you been paying attention to it, but 573 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 1: they have been using sombrero memes to make fun of 574 00:34:54,760 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: Hakeem Jeffries because he is in favor of giving healthcare 575 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 1: to illegal immigrants. I understand that might sound crazy to 576 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: some of you out there who are not involved in 577 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 1: the Internet. These memes are absolutely hysterical. I'm not sure 578 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,439 Speaker 1: if they're funnier than me playing the flute memes, which 579 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:17,919 Speaker 1: basically was the existence for AI for many time, and 580 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: that some of you continue to pop out there. But 581 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 1: jd Vance just said that he promises if the government 582 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: shutdown is ended with the help of Hakeem Jefferies, that 583 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: the sombrero memes will end. That is a real clip. 584 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: In the meantime, we'll get that for you in the 585 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: third hour, when we will also be joined by our 586 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: friend Tutor Dixon. But first, here is cut twenty eight 587 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: jd Vance saying, Hey, the far left wing of the 588 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: Democrat Party basically decided they have to shut down. Listen 589 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 1: to cut twenty eight. 590 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 3: The American people who are watching. The reason your government 591 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 3: is shut down at this very minute is because despite 592 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 3: the fact that the overwhelming majority of Congressional Republicans and 593 00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 3: even a few moderate Democrats supported opening the government, the 594 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer, AOC wing of the Democratic Party, shut down 595 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 3: the government because they said to us, we will open 596 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 3: the government, but only if you give billions of dollars 597 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 3: of funding for healthcare for illegal aliens. 598 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 2: That's a ridiculous proposition. 599 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: This these clips are gonna be really, really funny. Jadie 600 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: Vance was just held to account and asked, are the 601 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 1: Jeffreys sombrero memes actually helpful? And this is the element. 602 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna send it to our producer Greg. By the way, Ali, 603 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say that Ali is passing the blame 604 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: on the Cozy Earth controversy, but she just said, I 605 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: can't say on air whose name it was, but he 606 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: was completely wrong. 607 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 2: It wasn't me. 608 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: Controversy grows. One box of cozy earth gear per my 609 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: wife Laura, twelve sets of sheets. All of the information 610 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: was wrong. Ali was one hundred percent wrong. Not a 611 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: blame guy. Ali's not a blame girl, but she says 612 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: someone else was wrong. The truth will 613 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 2: Out of the bed.
