Have you with me rested today and tomorrow, 3 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: then we'll both be back together on Monday's program. Tutor 4 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: Dick's gonna be with us on Friday. She is part 5 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 1: of Clay and Buck podcast Network. We appreciate all of 6 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: you hanging out and listening to us eight hundred and 7 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 1: two A two to eight A two. If you want 8 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 1: to react to many of the topics that we are 9 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: discussing throughout the course of today's program, I want to 10 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: make sure as I talk about this media matters lawsuit 11 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: and Elon Musk, that all of you understand why this 12 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: is so important in twenty twenty four, because they are 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: going to try to run the same playbook against Trump 14 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty that was run in twenty twenty four. 15 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: And I'll explain that. Let me pause here for a sec. 16 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: I understand some of you are DeSantis people, You are 17 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: Nicki Haley people, you are of a aak Ramaswami people, 18 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: whoever you support in the event that Trump were not 19 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: the nominee, and he is a substantial favorite. As we 20 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: sit here a little bit less than two months from 21 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: the Iowa caucuses. They will run the same playbook against 22 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 1: your preferred candidate too. Some of you out there, I 23 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: think are a bit naive about the fact that Trump 24 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: you think is uniquely attackable. Remember what they did to 25 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: Mitt Romney. If you try to create the most blandly, 26 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 1: inoffensive Republican candidate, it would be Mitt Romney. Mitt Romney 27 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: makes Ned Flanders on The Simpsons seem like a rebel. 28 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: Mitt Romney is the most boring, milk toast Republican politician 29 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: on the planet, and they they turned him into a sexist, 30 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: racist bully who would destroy America if he were elected. 31 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: Remember Mitt Romney, in his Ned Flanders awkward way, said 32 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: that he tried to make sure that he recruited women 33 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 1: to work at his companies, and he said they had 34 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: binders full of women. Not the best phrase, but they 35 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: turned that into an example of his extreme sexism. Ron 36 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: de Santis, Nikki Haley, and vivek Rama Swami are all 37 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: more offensive than Mitt Romney. So if you're out there 38 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: and you're saying, oh, my candidate he or she, they 39 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: won't be able to say anything negative about them. Just 40 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: wait if Ron DeSantis got in a food fight in 41 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: fifth grade with a black dude, they'll turn it into 42 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: the equivalent of a lynching. If Nicki Haley kissed somebody 43 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: when she was sixteen and that person had a boyfriend, 44 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: God forbid that person had a girlfriend, that'd be heroic. 45 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: They'll turn her into a you know, the other woman. 46 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: Remember Brett Kavanaugh didn't even go that we know of 47 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: to a party with Christine blasi Ford, and they turned 48 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: him into the equivalent of a rapist. So if you 49 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: saw what they did to Mitt Romney and Brett Kavanaugh, 50 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: and you are sitting around right now saying, oh, they 51 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: really aren't going to be able to attack viveig. Oh, 52 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: Nicki Haley has never done anything in her past. Ron 53 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: the sansus they will find it. They will find it, 54 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: and they will use their manipulation of media channels to 55 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: turn whoever the Republican candidate is into the Antichrist. One 56 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: thing that I like about Trump is they've thrown everything 57 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: at him that they possibly can. And I think one 58 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: reason why Trump is surging right now in the polls, 59 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: and he's led ten of the twelve national polls in 60 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: the course of November so far, and he's opened up 61 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: according to real clear politics a fairly substantial lead on 62 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, particularly in the Swing States. But I think 63 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: we're running into a boy who cried Wolf scenario on 64 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: steroids right now with Trump. If you said in twenty fifteen, 65 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: if he's elected, he's going to destroy America, and by 66 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three you're looking around, you're saying, wait a minute. 67 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: We got war in Europe, we got war in the 68 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: Middle East. We got a wide open southern border with 69 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,559 Speaker 1: millions of people pouring across. We've got record high crime 70 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: rates in many of our cities. We have inflation the 71 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: likes of which many of you had not seen in 72 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: your lives, and those of you who had seen it 73 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: before as adults are now in your seventies or eighties 74 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: because you saw it back during the Jimmy Carter era. 75 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: Many people out there looking around saying, you know, you 76 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: said Trump was going to be so bad. Why is 77 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: everything Joe Biden touched turned to crap? Things felt pretty 78 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: good when Trump was in office until COVID hit, which 79 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: he had nothing to do with. You don't blame the 80 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: dinosaurs because an asteroid hit. I don't think you can 81 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:50,119 Speaker 1: blamed Trump because COVID hit. In fact, timing on COVID 82 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: is pretty interesting, isn't it. Remember how all the COVID 83 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: conspiracy theories like slowly have gotten checked off. You've been like, yeah, 84 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: it came from a Chinese lab. Yeah, doc or Fauci 85 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: was involved in helping to fund it with American taxpayer dollars. Yeah, 86 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: they wired about it and said it came out of 87 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: a Wuhan wet market. Awfully amazing that COVID got released 88 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: right before a major American presidential election, isn't it? COVID 89 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: just spread everyone. It's awfully I mean, COVID happens in 90 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, nowhere near as big of a story. COVID 91 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: happens in twenty seventeen. Nowhere near as big of a story. 92 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: COVID happens twenty twenty eight three, Nowhere near as big 93 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: of a story. The most consequential close election of many 94 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: of our lives, an election that Trump was very much 95 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: the favorite to win in February and March of twenty 96 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: twenty before COVID happens. Just pointing out it's not just 97 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: that COVID got out of a Chinese lab, It's that 98 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: COVID got out of a Chinese lab in an American 99 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: election year, and I think a lot of times people 100 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: don't talk about that. Maybe that's a total cool incidents, 101 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: but the fact that it happened in a highly competitive 102 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: American presidential election year made I think the response to 103 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: COVID immediately political and made things much worse in terms of, frankly, 104 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: how we responded to it, because I think there was 105 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: a panic on both sides of the political equation among 106 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: far too many of our political class. I think if 107 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: COVID had hit in a non election year, even if 108 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: it had hit in a midterm year, the chaos wouldn't 109 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: have been as bad. We wouldn't have shut down, lockdown, 110 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: kept kids out of schools for as long, in my opinion, 111 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: if it hadn't happened in an American presidential election year. That's 112 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: why I think, and I may be the only person's 113 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: out there saying this, I think we should cancel all 114 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: the debt that China owns in American treasuries. I think 115 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: it's three or four trillion dollars and say, yeah, that's 116 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: your cost for which way too, But that's your responsibility 117 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: for unleashing COVID on the world with your incompetence. I 118 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: think I'm like the only person saying that I would. 119 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: I would explore doing it if I were in political office. 120 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: But what they're going to do with Trump is they're 121 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: going to use the media matters of the world and 122 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: their control of Instagram and their control of YouTube and 123 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: their control of Facebook, all left leaning organizations that will 124 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: rig elections in favor of Democrats and against Trump. And 125 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: they're scared that. All Elon Musk is pledging is hey, 126 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: I'm just going to be fair and let the marketplace 127 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: of ideas work. Remember, Elon Musk is not saying, hey, 128 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: I am some far right wing idiologue. He's got a 129 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: radical idea. It's just that you and me and everybody 130 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: should be treated equal and all of our ideas should 131 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: compete evenly in the larger marketplace of ideas without restrictions 132 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: or favor based on what your political opinions are. And 133 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,959 Speaker 1: that's why Joe Scarborough, by the way, I'm gonna get 134 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: on a plane go down to the Panhandle. I think 135 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: my congressman, if I lived down in the Panhandle of Florida, 136 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: would be Matt Gates. Need to get together with him. 137 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: Haven't met him in person. But in the past, Joe 138 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: Scarborough represented this area of the country. I think it's 139 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,079 Speaker 1: one of the best parts of the country. I love 140 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: the Panhandle of Florida. Get down to the South Alabama area. 141 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: Really just South Alabama. It happens to be the Panhandle 142 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: of Florida. But Joe Scarborough, who used to represent that 143 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: era that area, he said in a second term, Trump 144 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: is going to imprison and execute whoever he wants. Listen 145 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: to this. 146 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 2: He's not a normal candidate. He is running to end 147 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 2: American democracies. 148 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: We know it. 149 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 2: He's an authoritarian. To a court in Colorado two days 150 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 2: ago ruled that he led an insurrection against the United 151 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 2: States government. He's charged with leading schemes to help overthrow 152 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 2: the United States government. 153 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 4: He will do, he will get away with, he will 154 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 4: in prison, he will execute whoever he's allowed to imprison, execute. 155 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: A drive from the country. Just look at his past. 156 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 3: It's not really hard to read. 157 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: Who did Trump execute? I mean, I mean, there's Joe Scarborough. 158 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: Can we put out an invite to Joe Scarborough, that 159 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: idiot to come on this show, Alley He won't come on, 160 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: but we'll invite who did Trump execute? I mean, I 161 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: mean this honestly. If you're gonna go on MSNBSA and 162 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: you're gonna say, if Donald Trump is elected, he will 163 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: kill he will execute whomever he can. He's already been 164 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: president for four years. Did I miss the firing squads? 165 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: Did I miss the gas chambers? Did Trump put any 166 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: of his political enemies in prison? Does Joe Scarborough's brain work? 167 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is trying to put his chief political rival 168 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: in prison? Right now, you're saying that Trump will do 169 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: it if he's elected. Shouldn't you focus on what's actually 170 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: going on right now? I don't remember Trump executing anybody. 171 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: Maybe I missed it. Maybe there was some massive number, 172 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: you know, maybe out in Lafayette Park right in front 173 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: of the White House they were lying up people just 174 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: mowing him down all the time. I missed it. If 175 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: it happened, maybe you got Maybe you guys saw it. 176 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what political rival did Donald Trump try 177 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: to put in prison. As soon as he got into office, 178 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: he actually said, hey, you know, yeah, we're gonna let 179 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: Hillary off. If anything, he was too kind to his 180 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: political rivals, too lenient, too generous, too forgiving. If you're 181 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: gonna go on MSNBC. And you're going to say Trump 182 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: will execute people and imprison people, shouldn't you have to 183 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: point to him having done it in the four years 184 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: that he was president before. And my point on this 185 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: is doesn't work. Democrats are in an incredible boy who 186 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: cries Wolfe's scenario on Trump. The truth of the matter 187 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: is Vivek, Nikki Haley, rohnd DeSantis. They haven't been in office. 188 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: So you can be outrageous, you can be hyperbolic, you 189 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: can say all sorts of crazy things about them because 190 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 1: they haven't actually been in office, and you can make 191 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 1: allegations that likely would not be true. But when you 192 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: say that about Trump, many people out there, even people 193 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: who wouldn't really be Trump supporters, look around. They're like, I, 194 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: you know, man, I don't really remember Trump executing anybody. 195 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't remember him imprisoning his political adversaries. No one 196 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: hardly went to prison for all the BLM riots. Compare 197 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: that with January sixth, and with Trump himself. Democrats do 198 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: what they claim Republicans will. And if Joe Scarborough had 199 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: a functional brain, or he ever had anybody with a 200 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: functional brain on his show on MSNBC, point back and say, Hey, 201 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: you just said he's going to execute his political opponents. 202 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 1: Why do you think he would just start doing that? 203 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 3: Now? 204 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: It's a lie, and over time, I trust the American 205 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: public's ability to recognize when they're being lied to. And 206 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: I don't believe any administration in our lives has lied 207 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: as much as Joe Biden's administration has. And that's why 208 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: I think so many people have come to recognize it. 209 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: And I think it ties in many different ways. But 210 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: that's why only fourteen percent of people are getting the 211 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: COVID shot. Takes a long time for some people to 212 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: recognize that they're being lied to, but once they recognize it, 213 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: it spreads like wildfire. Remember they were telling you a 214 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: few years ago you couldn't have Thanksgiving with more than 215 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: like two or three people. I mean, that's what the 216 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: Biden administration was trying to tell you. Remember, the Winter 217 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: of Death didn't happen. And as a result, a lot 218 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: of people when they hear these attacks on Trump from 219 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: MSNBC and CNN, they don't work. It's the boy who 220 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: Cried Wolf scenario. And actually I think it bounces back 221 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: and strengthens Trump because more and more people are realizing 222 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: that they're being lied to, and we'll take some of 223 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: your calls eight hundred two A two two eight A 224 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: two And meantime, you can start yearning earning high yield 225 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: returns in a low yield market by investing in Phoenix 226 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: Capital Groups corporate bonds.

I want to build on this Trump insanity. 244 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: And by the way, we're going to be joined by 245 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: Brian kill Meat at the bottom of the hour from 246 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: Fox News, and then at two thirty Bill Courtney, who 247 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: as former high school football coach. I think's got some 248 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: cool stories. If you watched the Oscar winning documentary, I 249 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: think it was undefeated, really really a great story about 250 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: a Memphis high school team that I think many of 251 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: you will enjoy. But I wanted to play this clip 252 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: for you too. I might even play this more than once. 253 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: But MSNBC's Ari Melber says, if you're voting for Trump, 254 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: that might be the last vote you ever get to cast. 255 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 6: If you have someone who may be in this case 256 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 6: is Donald Trump, who literally tried to overthrow democracy instead 257 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 6: of leave office peacefully. 258 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 3: If that person. 259 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 6: Takes power again, it's not a second term. They're seeking 260 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 6: a life term. And so I do think the country 261 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 6: has to wake. 262 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: Up to that. 263 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 6: It's not just a second term, it's a life term. 264 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 6: We are talking about someone who, as we've covered, in 265 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 6: the criminal legal context, is literally going on trial forever. 266 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: So over throw the election. 267 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 6: Now that's a legal process, and he's presumed innocent, he 268 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 6: could still walk. But in the political electoral process, if 269 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 6: you are going to give your vote to someone who's 270 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 6: already tried to steal your vote very bluntly, graphically and publicly, 271 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 6: well that might be the last vote you get to cast. 272 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: This is the argument they're going to roll with. If 273 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: Trump's seventy seven years old is elected, there won't be 274 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: an election in twenty twenty eight. What percentage of America 275 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: believes that three percent? I would wager every dollar that 276 00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: I have that if the world still exists, there will 277 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 1: be an election for the United States President in twenty 278 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: twenty eight, no matter who wins. Certainly, though, the idea 279 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: that you shouldn't vote to Trump because of that is 280 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: bonker Land crazy.

We've got everything under control. 322 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 7: It's gone so well so far. That guy thought he 323 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 7: was going to Coasting with the easiest job ever transportation. 324 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 7: What do I have to do? 325 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 3: Man? Okay, we've seen someone screw up more. 326 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: No and also screw up something that I didn't even know. 327 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: Like most people can't even name transportation secretaries from past administrations. 328 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: It's like you know, in general, if you can name 329 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: a referee it's a bad sign or an umpire. It 330 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: means that they're drawing a lot of attention to themselves, 331 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: oftentimes with controversial calls. It's the same thing with I 332 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: would say most cabinet secretaries. People know the Secretary of State, 333 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: they know the president and vice president. But when you're 334 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: getting down to like who's the secretary of education, who's 335 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: in charge of the energy department, if you're getting regularly 336 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 1: noticed there, you're probably doing a bad job. By the way, 337 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: speaking of regularly noticed, I've now gone on Twitter. Yesterday 338 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: Buck and I shared this opinion and if you want 339 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: to see a cluster, I went on Twitter and I 340 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: got a hot take. Yesterday I went and picked up 341 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: my fifteen year old at the airport. You mentioned how 342 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: crowded they're going to be. My thesis is this, I'm 343 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: excluding children and the elderly. No adults should get picked 344 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: up at the airport. Find your own way when you 345 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: arrive at the airport wherever you need to go if 346 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: you are an adult, because right now, I bet there's 347 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: people listening to me like losing their minds in traffic. 348 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: It was impossible last night to even get near the 349 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: Nashville Airport. Now I'm picking up a fifteen year old. 350 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: I kind of wanted to tell him to just take 351 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: an uber on his own, honestly, because I think he's 352 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: old enough to do it. Our airport pickups wildly overrated 353 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: in an era of uber and lyft. 354 00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 7: Yes, although people listening losing paycheck to paycheck, probably we'll 355 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,479 Speaker 7: take you on on that. But like for example, in 356 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 7: New York, it took my son maybe two months to realize. 357 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 3: He goes, you don't have to pick me up. 358 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 7: There's a train that brings me right to Jamaica, and 359 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 7: then from Jamaica, I can go right to the train. 360 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 3: Station's picked me up from the train station. He didn't 361 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 3: want to be picked up. 362 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I never I always saw that train and 363 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 7: I was thought, I'm gonna want to be dropped off. 364 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 7: I never I'm picked up. We're lucky enough playing in 365 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 7: our jobs. You know, through most of the time it's work, 366 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 7: and you can always grab a car. You know, you 367 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 7: have a car service's got people that you depend on. 368 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 3: But you know, you're right. If we could get people. 369 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 7: Just to take mass transportation rather than that uncle that 370 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 7: Ojia favor. I think that we'd be able to get 371 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 7: in and out a lot quicker. 372 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 1: So and by the way, people out there, even if 373 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: you're living paycheck to paycheck, picking somebody up at an airport, 374 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: I think people do a bad job of valuing time, 375 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: spending hours to drive to an airport. Not to mention 376 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: the mileage that you put on the car as well 377 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: well as your gas. It has a cost. You're just 378 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: not recognizing it in your head right because it's not free. 379 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: Like the time that you're spending is not inconsequential the 380 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: amount that you're spending on gas, mileage, everything else. Now 381 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: to mention the risk of of of some sort of 382 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: thing going wrong, you get a flat tire, you get 383 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: into an accident, as opposed to putting somebody on a newber, 384 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: I think that we just need to normalize adults, get 385 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: yourselves to and from the airport. 386 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 3: All right. 387 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: You got a book. It's called Teddy and Booker t 388 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: how two American icons blazed a path for racial equality. 389 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: Tell me about this. Tell me about this book. Why 390 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: is it? Why does it? Why does this story matter today? 391 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 3: Well? 392 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 7: Number one, I want to I wanted to pair up, 393 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 7: I kind of Clay. You have a sports background. The 394 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 7: best thing about the Rocky movies is one win to 395 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 7: the other. And if I could end one and the 396 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 7: first scene of the next Rocky is the last scene 397 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 7: of the previous Rocky. It's genius. And I've been compared 398 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 7: to stallan Off. Okay, never, but now you can so 399 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 7: Frederick probably got the president freedom fighter out. Now we 400 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 7: have Frederick Douglas, who was an idol of Booker t Washington. 401 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 7: They met, he spoke at Tuskegee, a school that Booker founded, 402 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 7: and there was six year old Teddy Roosevelt looking out 403 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 7: the window on Broadway. You've been on Broadway looking at 404 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 7: the body of Abraham Lincoln in eighteen sixty five after 405 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 7: he was assassinated by John molks Booth. His grandfather made 406 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 7: Cherry saw him, and from that moment he remembers always 407 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 7: idolizing Lincoln. So I thought, to these two guys, they 408 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 7: could talk about race and American move us forward. When 409 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 7: I first started doing these books, I thought, wouldn't it 410 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 7: be great if I had newspeople interested in history? And 411 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 7: now what are we talking about on our shows? We're 412 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 7: talking about the war on history. They're taking down Jackson, 413 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 7: they're taking down Columbus, they're moving Jefferson out of city Hall, 414 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 7: and then all of a sudden, they're boxing up Teddy 415 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 7: Roosevelt statue and moving it away because they don't feel 416 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 7: he's politically correcting us in twenty twenty two, and now 417 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,399 Speaker 7: I thought, let me talk to the Roosevelt people, because 418 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 7: Booker T. Washington team with Teddy Roosevelt to move us 419 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 7: forward on race relations, and I just think we need 420 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 7: a perspective when you have Megan Rappino who doesn't think 421 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,199 Speaker 7: we're far enough along as a country to stand up 422 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 7: during the national anthem, and another quarterback taking a knee 423 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 7: because he wasn't starting for the forty nine ers. I thought, 424 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 7: if you read what Booker t overcame to move us 425 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 7: forward and what Teddy did to defy his times, I 426 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 7: thought that you might have a perspective on why were 427 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 7: the most successful multicultural country in the history of the 428 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 7: world because two people came from the outer reaches, different 429 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 7: worlds to combine and make our country better. 430 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 3: And that's the story I tried to tell. 431 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're hitting on something that I think is 432 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: really important, Brian, and that is for much of the 433 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: I would say seventies, eighties, nineties, and early two thousands, 434 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: many people out there were buying into the idea, which 435 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: I think is very true that white, Black, Asian, and 436 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,479 Speaker 1: Hispanic we all have far more in common of cross 437 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 1: whatever racial differences or identities might theoretically divide us than 438 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,120 Speaker 1: we do different. And what's really happened, and I would 439 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: say the last decade or so is people have tried 440 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 1: to argue, oh, no, our identities are immutable characteristics and 441 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 1: there is no way to bridge the differences between us, 442 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: and therefore this must be the primary method upon which 443 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: we consider all of our human interaction, right, and that 444 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: has actually been I think supremely destructive to the idea 445 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: of America itself. 446 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 3: And when you put Booker T. 447 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 7: Washington in the South in the turn of the century, 448 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 7: twentieth century, where there was segregation, there was Jim Crow, 449 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 7: there were the poll taxes, the KKK emerges, that was 450 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 7: tough times. And instead of moving to the North, when 451 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 7: he started getting a degree of fame and wealth. 452 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 3: He's like, no, I'm going to Tuskegee. 453 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 7: We're going to start with the leaky shed and I'm 454 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 7: going to grow this. Then he had to get students. 455 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 7: All he had was one room dilapidated with the holes 456 00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 7: in the roof. One of his students would have to 457 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 7: hold thello when it rained. He started with thirty students 458 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 7: because he knocked on doors and said, do you want 459 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 7: to go to college, And most of the students were 460 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 7: older than him. 461 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 3: He was twenty four at the time. 462 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 7: And he got people in and he started it and 463 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 7: within a short time he had fifteen hundred graduates. And 464 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 7: they do something that I don't have, and that's they 465 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 7: learned to trade, and they got an education, and they 466 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 7: wanted to be indispensable to their community. And a lot 467 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 7: of white people did not want to hire black people. 468 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 7: And he said, well, if you're skilled, you're a blacksmith, 469 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 7: you're a construction you're an architect, whatever you're you're an agriculturist, 470 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 7: a farmer, you'll have to be hired. And then you 471 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 7: you grow your intellect, you'll defy what everyone thought with 472 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 7: the previous differences between races. And he did it in 473 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 7: the South, and his education program resonated throughout Europe, throughout Africa, 474 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 7: and all he would do is what he got money 475 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 7: from Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan, he. 476 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 3: Would put it into the school. And Teddy Roosevelt, in 477 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 3: Booker T. 478 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 7: Washington's words, did more for Black America than any president 479 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 7: aside from Abraham Lincoln. So I thought, even though we 480 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 7: had some blind spots in some of the statements, that 481 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 7: will clear your sinuses. Teddy Roosevelt, because he was raised 482 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 7: by a mom that's from the South. In the end, 483 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 7: he just brought this country together. A lot of it 484 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 7: was under the radar, and I tried to go over 485 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 7: it in the book. And the fact that people could 486 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 7: look each other and I respect each other. 487 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 3: Booker T. 488 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 7: Washington was the advisor for Teddy Roosevelt to pick out 489 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 7: judges and postmasters. 490 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 3: He just tell me the best person. Don't tell me 491 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 3: the color of their skin or even their gender. And 492 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 3: I just I was. 493 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 7: I got chills in reading the books by Booker T. Washington, 494 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 7: and they led me to Teddy Roosevelt. 495 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: Brian, one of the great unfortunate stories that isn't told 496 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: is if you look at speaking of Booker T. Washington, 497 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: the idea of self reliance and the idea of individual responsibility, 498 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: the success of Black America in terms of economics actually 499 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: began to decline relative to the history before that. In 500 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: the nineteen sixties with the Great Society, right, and this 501 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: is one of the things that Thomas Sauls of the 502 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: Year of the World have spent a great deal of 503 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: time on. As soon as government got involved in trying 504 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: to reconcile equality in this country in terms of economics, 505 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: that's when things started to fall apart. In terms of 506 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: Black America, both families with mom and dad both present. 507 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: Because you go look at the data prior to the 508 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: nineteen sixties that wasn't common at all, became very, very 509 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: prevalent the Great Society Lyndon Johnson in the end of 510 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: the nineteen sixties. I think the intention was good. The 511 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: result that's not been. 512 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 7: No question the values they came with, a social safety 513 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 7: net they came out, and the civil rights was necessary. 514 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 3: I understand what was going on. 515 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 7: But LBJ, even though some of the things that he 516 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 7: was saying in his life in Texas shows that he 517 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 7: was anything but Martin Luther King, he went out and said, hey, 518 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 7: let do civil rights. Let me get this done. The 519 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 7: result was sadly in many ways, the stats don't live 520 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 7: the destruction of the black family, and they've been having 521 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 7: got it back since. But if you took some of 522 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 7: the advances and some of the affirmative action things that 523 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 7: it looks as though we don't need. Clearly now, you 524 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 7: had to force people to change their perception of each other. 525 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 3: That was necessary. It took a lot of drama, took 526 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 3: so much courage. 527 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 7: But during that time, even before the eighteen sixties, you 528 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 7: had a guy in nineteen ten sit there and say, Okay, 529 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 7: this guy doesn't like me. If it doesn't call my skin, 530 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 7: this woman doesn't like it, goes call my skin. This 531 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 7: guy doesn't care. I'll deal with him, but I don't 532 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 7: hate them. They are people of their times. I will 533 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 7: change their perception when they see me in action. And 534 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 7: instead of demonstrating, protesting, canceling them, they said, I will 535 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 7: show you by my actions, and I dare you to 536 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 7: challenge my integrity. And Booker T. Washington born a slave 537 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 7: until he was nine, no shoes, no pam vents, slipt 538 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 7: on a dirt floor, one meal a day, ends up 539 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 7: being one of the most respected men I believe in 540 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 7: American history. Don't tell me you can't overcome black white 541 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 7: in between handicap, no parents, bad parents. 542 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 3: When you see these two stories. 543 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 7: Teddy Roosevelt, that bad asked me he was sick as 544 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 7: whole childhood wasn't supposed to survive. And you see them 545 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 7: come together from different walks of life. 546 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 3: I think you get. 547 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 7: Inspired for the country. We have the right people at 548 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 7: the right time. And number two, he was the precursor 549 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 7: to Napoleon Hill, Norman, Vincent Peale, and Anthony Robbins. Give me, 550 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 7: show me an obstacle, I'll scale it. I don't blame you, 551 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 7: and I'll be a stronger person on the other side. 552 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 7: And I just thought the whole story needs to be told. 553 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: No doubt.

Look, you feel like there's an all 562 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: out assault on masculinity. There are lots of days where 563 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: I do feel like there's an all out assault on masculinity. Heck, 564 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 1: we even have a phrase for it, toxic masculinity. I 565 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: think we need more masculinity in this country. We certainly 566 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: need more masculinity among our leadership because we got a 567 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: lot of weak leaders. And you know what week leaders 568 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: means war, People take advantage of us. I don't think 569 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: it's a coincidence that Joe Biden's in charge and we 570 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: suddenly have war in the Middle East and war in Europe. 571 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: And maybe in your own life you can use a 572 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 1: little bit more vim bigger and vitality, and maybe you 573 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: don't have the same punch that you used to.

I think it 606 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: was yesterday, both saying that we are very anti adults 607 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: being picked up at the airport. I went last night 608 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 1: to pick up my fifteen year old at the airport. 609 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: It was a cataclysm. It was apocalyptic at the Nashville 610 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: Airport on Tuesday night. Some of you may still be 611 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 1: sitting in airport traffic from last night at the Nashville 612 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,760 Speaker 1: Airport listening to me right now. You might have brought 613 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,720 Speaker 1: your own sleep bag and pulled off on the side 614 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: of the road. I'm not kidding about this. I don't 615 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: even know if they still have a cell phone waiting 616 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 1: area at the Nashville Airport. There were people just pulled 617 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: off on the side of the road. It looked like 618 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: the last helicopter out of Saigon on a Tuesday at 619 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: the Nashville Airport. Two tips Number one, if you are 620 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: arriving in the evening, get picked up at the departures. 621 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: There are far fewer people there. Go to the departure 622 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: level of the airport, that is where you would ordinarily 623 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: get dropped off to get on an airplane flight in 624 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,439 Speaker 1: the evening. There are very few flights, certainly after seven 625 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,919 Speaker 1: or eight o'clock in most airports. Get picked up there. 626 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: That would streamline the process a bit point two. Take 627 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: an uber or a lift. Take public transportation. If you 628 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 1: are an adult, no one needs to pick you up 629 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 1: at the airport. I'm trying to make American airport travel better. 630 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: We have to normalize adults taking responsibility for their own 631 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: travel from the airport. I'm excluding the elderly and children. 632 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 1: People out there like, oh, you're just super rich, Clay, 633 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: you can afford to get a you know, back in 634 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,280 Speaker 1: the taxicab days, it was hard uber and lifted, super easy. 635 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: Public transportation too. No, a lot of you are not 636 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: doing the math. If you are an adult and someone 637 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,760 Speaker 1: is picking you up, there is still a cost in time, 638 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: in a mileage, and in gas. You're just shifting the 639 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: cost from yourself to someone else and taking advantage of 640 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: their generosity and making them pay for your travel instead 641 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 1: of being responsible for it your I am trying to 642 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: make airports function again. God knows, Mayor Pete's not doing it. 643 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: He's too busy chest beating. I'm trying to make airport 644 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: travel great again. Take some of your calls on at 645 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:13,839 Speaker 1: final hour. 646 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 5: Now Slay Travis and Buck Sexton on the front lines 647 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 5: of truth.
