More classified documents found, this time in Biden's Delaware garage. Clay reacts: "This is always fun to do this show, but some days like this one are more fun than others!" Biden says it's no problem because they were locked up near his Corvette. Garland to speak, will he name a special counsel for Biden docs? Are Democrats setting up Biden to push him aside in 2024? Buck asks that question and adds: "I still think he will run again, but I'm less confident than I was yesterday." Will DOJ be able to prosecute Trump in light of Biden documents discovery? Will chicken egg shortage lead to a dinosaur egg oatmeal crisis?

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and buck
Sexton Show podcast O. Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.
This is always fun to do, but sometimes it's even
more fun, and this is one of those days. If
you have not heard breaking news, they have found more
(00:20):
classified documents in Joe Biden's possession, the latest in his
garage of his Delaware home. Now, there are a lot
of interesting legal questions that come out of this, but
the incompetence of Joe Biden, aided and embedded by a
fantastic question from Peter Doocey after his statement made just
(00:41):
a little over an hour ago, Joe Biden took really
only two questions. One was about his wife's wife's health.
The first one was about storing of classified documents in
his Delaware garage. I want to play this for you
because Joe Biden said, it's all okay, guys. It was
stored next to his core, very safe and secure listen
(01:02):
material next year. Corvette, what were you thinking? Let me,
we're not gonna get a chance to speak on all this.
God willne soon. But I said earlier this week people,
and by the way, my Corvette is in the locked garage. Okay,
so it's not like you're sitting out in the street.
But anyway, yes, as well as my corvette. But as
I said earlier this week, people know I take classified
(01:25):
documents of classified materials seriously, just just just real quick, Okay,
I had a T S SCI clearance worked at the CIA.
If I had responded to an official request for do
you have classified information and I said yes, it's near
my E scooter obviously in my garage, but don't worry, bro,
(01:50):
my garage is locked, they would have taken my badge.
They would have fired me on the spot, and they
would have told me to go home a waiting word
from the US attorney with possible charges under the Espionage
Act like no offens or butts Clay. I just want
to be very clear. It wouldn't have been like a
maybe kind of sort of thing. I would have been
terminated with prejudice. But you know, Joe Biden, man, Joe Biden.
(02:14):
So right after that, he read a statement from his lawyers.
And it's important to note that he hasn't made a
public statement about it that I've seen, But Joe Biden
has now retained his own criminal lawyers, those are different
than the lawyers that would be advising on behalf of
the United States government. But Buck, I can only imagine
this is a veep like moment. For those of you
(02:35):
who watched the show, they undoubtedly prepped Joe Biden over
and over and over again, Hey, here's what you need
to say. And instead and I get Peter Ducey credit.
Because Joe Biden is kind of obsessed with his corvette.
He specifically referenced that the classified documents were next to
(02:55):
the corvette, and Biden couldn't resist talking about those anytime
you say, I take this very seriously, and your defenses,
it was next to my corvette in the garage. First
of all, it's out of touch because most Americans can't
afford corvettes. Second, for anyone out there who has a garage,
(03:15):
it doesn't ring true. This is one of those great
moments where if you were standing in front of a jury, Buck,
if you put things in your garage documents, materials, it's
the next closest step to the track. Actually, the place
you treat things that are not that important to you.
They store things that are not that important to you.
(03:37):
This is where you put the fishing tackle that you
haven't used in a couple of years. You know, our
garage upstay were in a place their family place was
like the old archery bows that were collecting dust and
the toys when we were kids that we hadn't given
away or didn't want to because everybody had broken down,
or like, that's what goes in the storage area of
(03:57):
the garage, Clay. There's a lot that we will be
unpacking in this hour because the political implications of this
are actually now substantial I believe, yes, not think the
legal implications, we can talk about that too. The political implications, though,
are are pretty meaningful. But I would just before we
even get there, let's think for a second about how
(04:18):
do these documents get in the garage in some pile?
In what world is Joe Biden reading documents that are
in a skiff a secure compartmented information facility and then
they're getting mixed in with stuff and then they're ending
up next to the old you know, Little League trophies
for the grandkids, you know what I mean? How does
that even happen? And are we really to believe that
(04:40):
this was that they got them all at this point?
At this point, we have to assume he's probably got
some stashed under you know, the barbecue, you know, at
that delawarehouse. He's got them all over the place. Well,
we said when they found these in the in the
office in Washington, DC, that they had to search everywhere else.
(05:01):
And I want to get to the legal implications in
a moment, but I still think the absurdity of this
is ringing home. Buck, I tweeted out he posted, Joe
Biden did videos of him driving this corvette. It's like
a classic corvette. I don't know, probably in nineteen sixties
era corvette. Just by glancing at it, and in the
background of the video that he posted, you can see
(05:25):
stacks of boxes and papers up against the wall in
the garage. I would bet that it's probably a decent
chance that that is where the classified documents were. But
make no mistake about this. They tried to say that
the way that Donald Trump was storing classified documents in
(05:47):
mar Lago was such a national security threat that they
had to have the FBI raid there. Buck, You and
I have been to marrow Lago multiple times. You are
under secret servant, Secret Service surveillance. From the moment you
enter that property, you are wanted. When you move from
one part of the property to another, there are areas
(06:09):
that you do not have access to, including where Donald
Trump was storing these documents. Anybody can get into a garage.
I mean, just take it outside of this being Joe
Biden's residence. If you live in a neighborhood, the least
secure part of your house is your garage that is
(06:30):
over and above it. And that is why this is
going to turn into I think I said after they
found the first classified documents, I didn't think there was
any way they could charge Trump with a crime. There
is a zero percent chance, in my opinion, in the
wake of this, that there is any way they can
charge Trump with a crime for documents related to Mara Lago.
(06:51):
So I would say that this has now transitioned from
Oh but what Trump did was so much worse, which
was the news psyche, Well they were given us yesterday.
Yes to old man, Biden made some mistakes. Whoop. See
there's classified in a bunch of places, which also has
implications by the way, for Biden separately from Trump, which
(07:13):
we can get into. People are asking me some interesting
questions about this one. But Clay, I think they were
in a position under that analysis of events, which clearly
has been blown out of the water to still bring
some kind of a process charge against Trump related to
the documents. People keep saying, why was there an FBI
raid in the one and off the other? Look, I agree,
(07:34):
the FBI rate was outrageous and crazy, and we talked
about at the time. What they're going to say is
that Trump had documents and refused to turn them over.
They knew about them, and that's why the FBI had
to go and secure them. This is bullcrap, we all know.
But that's at least the explanation. But now you have
a circumstance where the obstruction charge that they were going
(07:55):
to try I think against Trump, now that's even gone too.
I think anything connected tomorrow ago documents as a criminal
matter for Trump, the DOJ has to let it. Let
it all go okay. So and here, now let's get
into a little bit of the timeline, because I do
think this is interesting and we still, to my knowledge,
have not heard They found these initial documents, was the
(08:16):
report on November second in the Biden office in Washington,
d C. They now are announcing that they have found
more documents. When were these new documents in the Biden
private residence in Delaware and his garage. When were those found?
And Buck, I want you to think about this because
(08:38):
I'm curious what your take on this would be. You
just hit on it. When they announced the finding of
the documents in his private office, all of the Democrat
corporate media apparatus came out and wagged their fingers and
said Trump is still worse. They wrote all the articles
New York Times, Washington Posts, they carried all the water.
(09:00):
Now they allowed they basically allowed all of Biden's advocates
to put their best foot forward, and now they've just
chopped that foot off because of this new situation. So
how is this story developing? When were these uncovered? What
is when did Merrick Garland know about it? These are
big questions. So I don't like responding to a question
(09:22):
with a question, But I think this question in some
ways might answer the question that you've just posed. Because
I've received this now in different form text message, DM
email from a handful of people in the last twenty
four hours. Because you're asking about timeline. People are asking me, Hey,
is this how they get Biden to step down? Yeah?
(09:46):
Is this? How is it? A hit from his own team. Well, effectively,
it's the hey, guys, it's because if they opened the
Pandora's box of look, Biden has senior moments, there was
no By the way, there's no chance. I want every understand,
no chance of criminal charges against Joe Biden for any
of this. Don't don't even waste your time, anyone tells
you otherwise living in a fantasy land because they've already
(10:07):
established with Hillary the whole Oh, I didn't mean to.
And I know where people are gonna say, well, look
what they did a Trump, right, Trump is Trump. They're
they're out on this is that he had no men's
ray and no criminal mindset to do anything with recklessness
or whatever. His intent wasn't there, right, he had no intent? Yeah,
But also there's the he's really old, these forgetful come on, guys,
(10:28):
let's not And if they start to open that at
all as a discussion about this, then that clearly transitions
into the show. So should this guy really be president?
So I have to analyze this and think about what
do you think it is it even possible in your
mind that this is the apparatus at least creating the
(10:50):
grounds because I do believe Joe Biden wanted to run again.
I do believe Joe Biden thought he was running again.
I still think he will run again, but I'm less
confident today than I was yesterday. Okay, so that's a
big question here and what we were saying off air
before we came on. We have basically ongoing conversations twenty
(11:11):
four hours a day essentially. But Buck, I always think
about this as if I were a crisis pr advisor,
how would you handle this? I want every single bit
of information about classified documents out all at once. My
theory is this makes Biden look far worse. And that's
(11:33):
why I circle back to, well, when did they find
these documents at his Delaware home? Because I would want, Hey,
the story to be We're gonna leak it to one
of our media allies. Hey, we found sixty three I'm
just tossing out a number, by the way, sixty three
classified documents that Joe Biden shouldn't have been in possession of.
(11:53):
We did an exhaustive search of every possible place where
he's got access, and we found documents in his office
in DC. We found documents in his home, We found
documents in his beach house wherever they found them, put
it out all at once as one story. The drip drip,
drip of not only did he have documents here, but
(12:15):
he had them there. To me looks worse and makes
it feel like a targeted hit in some way, as
opposed to just letting him get in front of the story.
Now you may disagree. I think the drip is worse
because it makes look more incompetent. It also raises the
question of, Okay, when did this search actually happen at
his home? You could argue, You could argue that though
(12:37):
by talking about the first one, you open up the
possibility of the second one. And that's why the media
was already shaping this with it was basically, let's be clear,
classified documents were found in some Biden office for some
bull think tank that was paying him seven hundred and
seventy thousand dollars a year. The University of Pennsylvania has
(12:57):
money to light on fire obviously, because that's well, they're
actually buying influences. We know, we know what they were buying,
and the apparatus takes care of its own. But the
story was actually but Trump was worse. That was the
whole the whole day was Trump. That's why this is
so fascinating me. Buck. They let all of the advocates
come out and defend Biden, and now the core vette
(13:18):
line and the garage. It's like they chopped off the
head of all the defenders because it made them look ridiculous.
I also, I am so curious. You know we got that,
oh Trump had the nuclear the nuclear information, the single
thing that somebody who is not particularly uh you know,
in touch with classification and rules of national security, but
you know, somebody hears the nuke secrets might have been leaked.
(13:41):
Any normal person's gonna get freaked out. Do you think
we're ever gonna find out some of the some of
the details. Magically, there'll be some leaks of the press
about what TS documents top secret documents? Did Biden have
hanging out in a garage next to Oiley rags and
you know his Christmas decorations. That's I don't think we're
gonna ever see that, which is also another indicator here,
(14:02):
but Clay, we got a lot of my friend because look,
this affects, This affects Biden running again, This affects Trump's
ability to one win the primary and to win a
general like. There's a lot of moving pieces that tie
into this all of a sudden, so we got a
busy day. We haven't even talked about the nationwide egg shortage. Everybody.
(14:25):
I will. The food that I love the most is
red meat. The food that I am most dependent on, clay,
is egg I eat eggs like every day, and there
is literally I'm not even it's not a joke. Everybody,
there's a nationwide shortage of chicken eggs. Thank you, Joe Biden.
We'll talk about this in a moment. Mike Lendale is
the inventor of my pillow. You guys don't know Mike.
(14:47):
You see him on TV. Here him here on this show.
He's got a passion to help everyone get the best
sleep of their life. And if you've ever seen him,
like I said, you just know how true that is.
So let me tell you about this, the Geeza dream sheets.
I know the pillows are probably the most famous, but
the Geeza dream sheets have been a game changer for me.
They're named after a region in Egypt, Geeza, where the
(15:07):
environment is perfect for growing the softest cotton. I think
that's also where the Great Pyramids are by the way.
The Geeza dream Sheets are what I sleep on every night.
They're ultrasoft and luxurious. They're the finest sheets you're ever
going to experience. And the amazing thing the price is incredible.
Right now, they're at the lowest price ever twenty nine

(15:54):
you d real, chiefing it honest. Clay Travis and Buck
Sexton walk back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show. We
should mention Merrick Garland has a press conference scheduled for
one fifteen Eastern today, Buck that will be followed by
Karen Jean Pierre, who has scheduled a White House press
(16:15):
conference for one thirty I don't see any way possible
that they are avoiding doing a special counsel announcement. Do
you agree or disagree with that? So this is interesting.
The Democrats have always avoided special counsels up to this point,
so I think they are unlikely to do it. However,
(16:38):
because they're in charge of the DOJ the damage of
a special counsel, they will hand pick a Democrat partisan
to run the special Council if they do it, and
they know that Merrick Garland, under no circumstances, will take
any action or even release any report that is damaging
to Democrats. I still think though, they won't do it,
because even the appointment of a special counsel would be
(16:59):
a session, and they don't make concessions. That's why they
have the media apparatus that they do running cover for
them all the time. You would also then wonder why
a special counsel on this and not the Hunter Biden issue,
which is, if you were creating in a lab the
perfect conditions for a special council administration, it would be
the son of the sitting president selling access to that
(17:20):
president and engage in multiple federal felonies in the process. Right,
That's it'd be hard to think of a more clear
case for why you would need so they haven't done
it for that Clay. Now you can argue that sets
a precedent, or you can argue this is a straw
that breaks the Campbell's back, so to speak. With the documents.
And so now they finally have to You think they will.
(17:41):
I think they still won't. I think they will in
this case. I think they'd rather have a special counsel
in this case because the comparative punishments are light, whereas
what Hunter Biden may well have done based on all
the evidence, is way more significant. So my prediction is
about forty five minutes officially have a special council announced.
(18:02):
We'll see whether that comes true. How many days worth

That's what we did at the Travis household with my patriots.

three month emergency food kit. This is what we have

Sext on the Truck Lines of Truth Welcome back in
Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. We are discussing the revelations
surround funding the newest details about Joe Biden's continuing to
have more and more classified documents now not only in
(19:10):
his Washington DC office, but in his garage next to
his corvette, as he said a little over an hour ago.
And I wonder now, I think the timeline becomes significant, Buck,
in terms of what Merrick Garland decides to do, because
I just want to emphasize this and I don't think
(19:32):
it's being discussed enough. They initially made the uncut the
discovery of these classified documents on November second, six days
before the mid term. I believe it was on November
eighteenth that Merrick Garland announced a special counsel when it
became clear that Donald Trump, he said, was going to
run for president and therefore there were political calculations involved
(19:57):
that required a special counsel. I want to know when
were these documents in the garage uncovered? Why are we
hearing piecemeal or are there documents in Joe Biden's beach house?
When did this? When did this search take place? Was
(20:18):
it after the November second discovery? Was it two months
ago as well? Was it recent? We need to know
the timeline to have a better sense of how this
discovery happened. And I do think that implicates on some
level the decision of Merrick Garland, because the timing on
this buck when I think through it, you have the
(20:39):
piecemeal unveiling of multiple locations classified document discovery. But it
suggests now that Merrick Garland is having a press conference
that maybe he didn't know about these garage documents. It's
just very strange. I can't imagine. I mean, keep in mind,
they didn't they didn't appoint a special council for the
(21:00):
Hillary Clinton email server, right, Barack Obama did not. In fact,
as we all recall, Loretta Lynch had that just happenstance
coincidental sit down with Bill Clinton and excused his Secret
Service detail and hers from the meeting on the private
(21:20):
jet on the tarmac in Arizona, right before James Comey
came forward and said nobody would ever bring charges against Hillary.
So I think it's important we never allow ourselves to
forget the context for these decisions that are being made,
and how partisan they are, how outrageously one sided. This
DOJ apparatus because it is of the party of the state,
(21:43):
the Democrats, unfortunately the statists, that's what they're doing. And
I gotta say, if we find another batch, what are
the chance of we meaning, if it comes out that
there's another batch of classified documents. In this case, this
is the Wilmington, Delaware home they found these ones. There's
also the Rohobeth Beach home. At some point it turns
(22:06):
into the public recognizing that this is probably I'm not
I don't mean this to be funny. I think this
is what happens when you have somebody who is in
this age range and has cognitive function that is clearly eroding,
as Joe Biden's is. They're going to forget stuff, They're
going to leave things around now that raises the sympathy level,
(22:29):
and certainly also not that they would charge him anyway
with anything. He's the president. You know it's not going
to happen. But I think, Clay, they have to be
very careful here, because how do they spend that now?
The partisans don't care. You and I both know that
forty six percent of the country is going to vote
Democrat in the next presidential election no matter what. You
(22:51):
rolled Joe Biden out with a blanket across his knees
mumbling about how he wants to go feed peanuts to
the squirrels, and forty five percent of Democrats still vote
for him. They don't care, but they know they got
to get that middle two, three percent, five percent, whatever
it's going to be in the next election. And that
may be too much of an ask. If Joe Biden
is so clearly fading, do you think is the machine
(23:16):
protecting him, Clay, or is the machine setting him up
to move him? I think it's a political hit job,
and that's why, and I know you don't. You don't
necessarily have the same read on this that I do.
But if I am a crisis coordinator, right, I'm a
PR expert who is trying to figure out how to
(23:36):
spin this story. I want it all out instantly, every
classified document that he had, and oh, by the way,
let me just say this, I also want every classified
document that got discovered immediately destroyed and this story to
never come out. All right, I'm just gonna be honest
with you if I am. The thing that surprises me
(23:59):
about this story on some level is that we're even
hearing about these classified documents. It also makes me wonder
were there other classified documents that we're not going to
hear about, because remember, this is a search that has
been allowed to be done undertaken by Joe Biden. They
(24:20):
didn't call in the FBI. And you made the point, yes, okay,
well maybe that's because they're not arguing about these documents.
But if you had a choice, Buck, between your chosen allies,
your employees effectively going through all your papers, or someone
who is independent going through all your papers who may
(24:41):
have an issue with you, I would rather have my
allies my employees. So the fact that this is coming
out drip by drip, I really think what we talked
about this quite a bit, Buck, What do left wingers
fear the most in the public having their intelligence ridicule,
(25:01):
being embarrassed, being mocked, being derided publicly. They let all
of Joe Biden's defenders come out and say, oh, this
is nothing like Trump. I read yesterday in the New
York Times big long article. They're somewhat similar, but what
Trump did is far worse. And now they're out on
(25:23):
the hook with they had a legal classified documents and
a garage by a corvette. It makes them look dumb.
It looks swoppy. I don't disagree with your analysis on this.
I would offer an alternative to it, but I'm not.
You could be I'm not. I don't think that's wrong.
I think there's another possibility though, right so, like I'm
(25:45):
still looking, I viewed as like a menu at this point,
I may order clays from column ay. But Colum b isn'
as another possibility in my mind, which is that by
getting all the first of all the defenders of the regime,
remember Russia collusion and all the stuff out there, everybody
the defenders of the regime have to be willing to
look like morons with no ethics if they really want
(26:08):
to be at the cool kids table, like that is
a requirement. The fifty one intelligence agents, Russian disinformation on
undred percent a lie. You read my mind about my
next thought, that wasn't a problem for their careers. That
was them taking one for the team, willing to look
like morons to defend Joe Biden in that moment. It
(26:30):
didn't matter how obvious and willing to light their integrity
on fire, which they did. So that we have to
always remember as part of this, the part of it
that I think may come into this is by immediately
launching the whole Trump is that Trump's were worse and
this is Marlago and putting that defense in place, I
think that they are hoping to conflate all this in
(26:52):
just a Biden v. Trump issue instead of a Biden
is a reckless and senile old man who made really
this allegations against another political figure, Trump or anybody else
around this same issue. And clearly there's a problem here,
you see what I mean. So that's my other alternative
option for this. But I'm not sure. I'm not sure
that I disagree with yours. Yeah, And the other thing
(27:13):
I would say, and we're going to hear from Mayor
Garland in about thirty minutes, and we were talking about
what he may or may not. You think special counsel.
I think, no special counsel. But he says, we're really sorry.
It was not it was not good. I think what
has happened here, Buck, If you look at all of
the things that you could go after Trump for obstruction
(27:35):
through the classified documents, is actually the least complicated charge
to bring. And I think Biden has stepped all over
and effectively destroyed because you can make an argument, oh,
what Trump did is still worse because he was arguing
back and forth, and the general public is not going
(27:56):
to buy that when you've got classified documents next to
your core Vett in the girls right that this obliterated
that argument. That's calls out. So I think what ends
up happening, This is my prediction, and it would play
out into the summer. I think what ends up happening
is Merritt Garland comes out and lectures in July or
(28:16):
August associated with the classified documents. He appoints a special counsel.
They determined that both men have improperly handled classified documents.
And he comes out and wags his finger and says,
we need more. You know, everybody is making this error
not treating classified documents securely enough. There are probably crimes
(28:39):
that have been committed, but because it's happening across the
political board, everybody needs to know. He's the He's like
the you know, school principle who comes in and lectures
the class but hold performing well enough. There are a
few implications of what you're saying. One is you had
been thinking for the last six months that they were
going to charge Trump, so they could charge Hunter. Since
(28:59):
we both agree, yeah, they're not charging Trump. I don't
think Clay in twenty twenty three. We we already know
what happened in twenty twenty two. You doubted me on
that one, Well, doubting what this takes off the table?
Is the way do you agree with that? Is that
is that no longer on the table. I still think
they could charge Trump for January six transgressions. So if
(29:20):
they do that, then I think they still have the
opportunity to do something related to Hunter. But I think
they the fart that January sixth. This complicated buck because
it's attenuated. There are all sorts of difficulties associated with
January six charges that to me didn't apply as it
pertains to the classified docks, and I think this is

(31:35):
You gotta give credit where it's due. He is the
champ when it comes to inflation, going all the way
back to nineteen eighty. He's also been able to preside
over the worst supply chain crisis in living memory, at
least the worst that I'm aware of. He presided over
a shortage of baby formula last summer that continued on
(32:00):
this buck for for people out there trying to buy.
It hasn't gone away, which is kind of crazy. It's
the story's gone away, but it's still an issue for people.
And now a shortage nationwide of eggs. Eggs not only
are about twice as expensive as they were a year ago,
(32:21):
which you gotta think about this. Eggs are a staple food, right,
I think of all the things they're put in. Are you,
by the way, are you are you a scrambled eggs guy?
An omelet guy? You know what? You eat eggs almost
every day? I was trying to think. I don't remember
unless it's in a restaurant. I don't remember the last
time I had eggs. Oh wow, I mean for me,
(32:41):
it's like the easiest best tasting questions house right now
or hardly ever? Wow? Is that weird? I don't know.
Maybe I just will like, what do you eat for breakfast?
We have? Well, first of all, I have the three boys?
So are you a cereal? Family of cereal? A lot
of cereal? But all so my boys love? And every
(33:02):
time I say this that there's like people are like
that exists. It's hard. There's this dinosaur oatmeal with like
fake not fake, but like would all like eggs that
erupt as you cook it. We've had it. I don't
know how much dinosaur oatmeal we have bought in the
Travis household, but we have to be in the top
one percent of dinosaur oatmeal consumers, that's the other thing.
So my boys eat either cereal or this dinosaur oatmeal.
(33:25):
So I like the proteins. And I did share this
on Twitter with everybody. Game changer for your scrambled eggs
out there, honestly, for your omelets to the biggest, the
biggest thing that people do with eggs. They overcook them,
and you actually get so used to it because if
you go to uh like Shawnees or um, you know,
(33:46):
any of these places where they have big buffets, like
what are the big buffet restaurant? I'm trying to pick
Denny's and like den thank you, you know, um, even
probably a waffle house and uh International House of Pancakes,
all these kinds of places. The eggs that they give
you a lot of the time it comes from some
from a mix. They're like instant eggs. But even if
(34:06):
they're making them, they cooked them so that they're rubbery
and kind of hard, and that's gross. That's actually not
what you want when you're cooking your egg I'm gonna
tell you, you want them to maintain a bit of
the moisture. You're starting to sound a little bit like
James Gordon here, are we gonna get a aggry buck
egg egg feud in a restaurant at sometime? I'm gonna
lie like maybe he was right that they overcooked his
(34:27):
egg white on lit a little bit. I don't know,
but I do know that cook your eggs slow and
taken off the heat entirely, and you will thank me.
Cook them slow. You can cook eggs in a minute.
That's and people get used to it. You just fire
up that pan and then you've got the eggs that
you would get at some you know seven ninety nine
buffet place off of I ninety five, not to visiting
(34:48):
wrong with that, but you can make better eggs at
home for yourself. So aren't eggs costing like in the shortage?
They cost way more? Right? Because one time we have
lots of eggs in the house is Easter because the
kids all die the Easter eggs, and like we spent
like then we have oodles of eggs because I end
up eating them all hard boiled eggs afterwards. But they're
(35:09):
like nine dollars a dozen or something someplace, Yes, aren't there.
They've gotten very expensive. And then there's also all the
different varieties of eggs, and people get really into this.
Whether the eggs are cage free or whether they're free range.
Are they grain fed or are they corn fed? These
are all different if you look at if you look
(35:30):
at the egg section. Now there's a lot of different
people have gotten really into this. And I will say,
though your egg, if it's fresh, it really is kind
of this bright orange color. You don't want the dull yellow.
You want to bright orange color and expert on eggs.
I would not have expected you to have so much
egg knowledge, Clay. I like to keep people on their toes.
You know this is so what about the brown egg
versus not to be racist, the brown egg versus the
(35:52):
white egg? And aren't there like speckled eggs? Like is
this a difference in your experience? I'm not aware of
any of any difference. It's based on the shell. So
it is what is inside the egg that counts as
far as I know, you know, terms of flavor and
everything else. But I will say I just got a text.
People are like dinosaur oatmeal. That sounds awesome. And my
(36:14):
little nephew who's two, we gotta get him some dinosaur oatmeal.
It is an amazing product. You get different numbers of
eggs you can help to learn, to teach the kids
how to count by the number of eggs in the oatmeal.
And my boys have loved it since they were like
little kids. It's got dinosaurs on the cover. I'm probably
(36:35):
gonna sell out now dinosaur oatmeal nationwide, but my kids
love it. Little eggs inside. I eat by the way,
I can think I'm kind of boring a Kirkland's breakfast bar. Kirkland's,
of course, Costco brand almost every single morning for breakfast. Up. Next,
what do we have? Oh? The governor of Texas
Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and buck
Sexton Show podcast O. Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.
This is always fun to do, but sometimes it's even
more fun, and this is one of those days. If
you have not heard breaking news, they have found more
(00:20):
classified documents in Joe Biden's possession, the latest in his
garage of his Delaware home. Now, there are a lot
of interesting legal questions that come out of this, but
the incompetence of Joe Biden, aided and embedded by a
fantastic question from Peter Doocey after his statement made just
(00:41):
a little over an hour ago, Joe Biden took really
only two questions. One was about his wife's wife's health.
The first one was about storing of classified documents in
his Delaware garage. I want to play this for you
because Joe Biden said, it's all okay, guys. It was
stored next to his core, very safe and secure listen
(01:02):
material next year. Corvette, what were you thinking? Let me,
we're not gonna get a chance to speak on all this.
God willne soon. But I said earlier this week people,
and by the way, my Corvette is in the locked garage. Okay,
so it's not like you're sitting out in the street.
But anyway, yes, as well as my corvette. But as
I said earlier this week, people know I take classified
(01:25):
documents of classified materials seriously, just just just real quick, Okay,
I had a T S SCI clearance worked at the CIA.
If I had responded to an official request for do
you have classified information and I said yes, it's near
my E scooter obviously in my garage, but don't worry, bro,
(01:50):
my garage is locked, they would have taken my badge.
They would have fired me on the spot, and they
would have told me to go home a waiting word
from the US attorney with possible charges under the Espionage
Act like no offens or butts Clay. I just want
to be very clear. It wouldn't have been like a
maybe kind of sort of thing. I would have been
terminated with prejudice. But you know, Joe Biden, man, Joe Biden.
(02:14):
So right after that, he read a statement from his lawyers.
And it's important to note that he hasn't made a
public statement about it that I've seen, But Joe Biden
has now retained his own criminal lawyers, those are different
than the lawyers that would be advising on behalf of
the United States government. But Buck, I can only imagine
this is a veep like moment. For those of you
(02:35):
who watched the show, they undoubtedly prepped Joe Biden over
and over and over again, Hey, here's what you need
to say. And instead and I get Peter Ducey credit.
Because Joe Biden is kind of obsessed with his corvette.
He specifically referenced that the classified documents were next to
(02:55):
the corvette, and Biden couldn't resist talking about those anytime
you say, I take this very seriously, and your defenses,
it was next to my corvette in the garage. First
of all, it's out of touch because most Americans can't
afford corvettes. Second, for anyone out there who has a garage,
(03:15):
it doesn't ring true. This is one of those great
moments where if you were standing in front of a jury, Buck,
if you put things in your garage documents, materials, it's
the next closest step to the track. Actually, the place
you treat things that are not that important to you.
They store things that are not that important to you.
(03:37):
This is where you put the fishing tackle that you
haven't used in a couple of years. You know, our
garage upstay were in a place their family place was
like the old archery bows that were collecting dust and
the toys when we were kids that we hadn't given
away or didn't want to because everybody had broken down,
or like, that's what goes in the storage area of
(03:57):
the garage, Clay. There's a lot that we will be
unpacking in this hour because the political implications of this
are actually now substantial I believe, yes, not think the
legal implications, we can talk about that too. The political implications, though,
are are pretty meaningful. But I would just before we
even get there, let's think for a second about how
(04:18):
do these documents get in the garage in some pile?
In what world is Joe Biden reading documents that are
in a skiff a secure compartmented information facility and then
they're getting mixed in with stuff and then they're ending
up next to the old you know, Little League trophies
for the grandkids, you know what I mean? How does
that even happen? And are we really to believe that
(04:40):
this was that they got them all at this point?
At this point, we have to assume he's probably got
some stashed under you know, the barbecue, you know, at
that delawarehouse. He's got them all over the place. Well,
we said when they found these in the in the
office in Washington, DC, that they had to search everywhere else.
(05:01):
And I want to get to the legal implications in
a moment, but I still think the absurdity of this
is ringing home. Buck, I tweeted out he posted, Joe
Biden did videos of him driving this corvette. It's like
a classic corvette. I don't know, probably in nineteen sixties
era corvette. Just by glancing at it, and in the
background of the video that he posted, you can see
(05:25):
stacks of boxes and papers up against the wall in
the garage. I would bet that it's probably a decent
chance that that is where the classified documents were. But
make no mistake about this. They tried to say that
the way that Donald Trump was storing classified documents in
(05:47):
mar Lago was such a national security threat that they
had to have the FBI raid there. Buck, You and
I have been to marrow Lago multiple times. You are
under secret servant, Secret Service surveillance. From the moment you
enter that property, you are wanted. When you move from
one part of the property to another, there are areas
(06:09):
that you do not have access to, including where Donald
Trump was storing these documents. Anybody can get into a garage.
I mean, just take it outside of this being Joe
Biden's residence. If you live in a neighborhood, the least
secure part of your house is your garage that is
(06:30):
over and above it. And that is why this is
going to turn into I think I said after they
found the first classified documents, I didn't think there was
any way they could charge Trump with a crime. There
is a zero percent chance, in my opinion, in the
wake of this, that there is any way they can
charge Trump with a crime for documents related to Mara Lago.
(06:51):
So I would say that this has now transitioned from
Oh but what Trump did was so much worse, which
was the news psyche, Well they were given us yesterday.
Yes to old man, Biden made some mistakes. Whoop. See
there's classified in a bunch of places, which also has
implications by the way, for Biden separately from Trump, which
(07:13):
we can get into. People are asking me some interesting
questions about this one. But Clay, I think they were
in a position under that analysis of events, which clearly
has been blown out of the water to still bring
some kind of a process charge against Trump related to
the documents. People keep saying, why was there an FBI
raid in the one and off the other? Look, I agree,
(07:34):
the FBI rate was outrageous and crazy, and we talked
about at the time. What they're going to say is
that Trump had documents and refused to turn them over.
They knew about them, and that's why the FBI had
to go and secure them. This is bullcrap, we all know.
But that's at least the explanation. But now you have
a circumstance where the obstruction charge that they were going
(07:55):
to try I think against Trump, now that's even gone too.
I think anything connected tomorrow ago documents as a criminal
matter for Trump, the DOJ has to let it. Let
it all go okay. So and here, now let's get
into a little bit of the timeline, because I do
think this is interesting and we still, to my knowledge,
have not heard They found these initial documents, was the
(08:16):
report on November second in the Biden office in Washington,
d C. They now are announcing that they have found
more documents. When were these new documents in the Biden
private residence in Delaware and his garage. When were those found?
And Buck, I want you to think about this because
(08:38):
I'm curious what your take on this would be. You
just hit on it. When they announced the finding of
the documents in his private office, all of the Democrat
corporate media apparatus came out and wagged their fingers and
said Trump is still worse. They wrote all the articles
New York Times, Washington Posts, they carried all the water.
(09:00):
Now they allowed they basically allowed all of Biden's advocates
to put their best foot forward, and now they've just
chopped that foot off because of this new situation. So
how is this story developing? When were these uncovered? What
is when did Merrick Garland know about it? These are
big questions. So I don't like responding to a question
(09:22):
with a question, But I think this question in some
ways might answer the question that you've just posed. Because
I've received this now in different form text message, DM
email from a handful of people in the last twenty
four hours. Because you're asking about timeline. People are asking me, Hey,
is this how they get Biden to step down? Yeah?
(09:46):
Is this? How is it? A hit from his own team. Well, effectively,
it's the hey, guys, it's because if they opened the
Pandora's box of look, Biden has senior moments, there was
no By the way, there's no chance. I want every understand,
no chance of criminal charges against Joe Biden for any
of this. Don't don't even waste your time, anyone tells
you otherwise living in a fantasy land because they've already
(10:07):
established with Hillary the whole Oh, I didn't mean to.
And I know where people are gonna say, well, look
what they did a Trump, right, Trump is Trump. They're
they're out on this is that he had no men's
ray and no criminal mindset to do anything with recklessness
or whatever. His intent wasn't there, right, he had no intent? Yeah,
But also there's the he's really old, these forgetful come on, guys,
(10:28):
let's not And if they start to open that at
all as a discussion about this, then that clearly transitions
into the show. So should this guy really be president?
So I have to analyze this and think about what
do you think it is it even possible in your
mind that this is the apparatus at least creating the
(10:50):
grounds because I do believe Joe Biden wanted to run again.
I do believe Joe Biden thought he was running again.
I still think he will run again, but I'm less
confident today than I was yesterday. Okay, so that's a
big question here and what we were saying off air
before we came on. We have basically ongoing conversations twenty
(11:11):
four hours a day essentially. But Buck, I always think
about this as if I were a crisis pr advisor,
how would you handle this? I want every single bit
of information about classified documents out all at once. My
theory is this makes Biden look far worse. And that's
(11:33):
why I circle back to, well, when did they find
these documents at his Delaware home? Because I would want, Hey,
the story to be We're gonna leak it to one
of our media allies. Hey, we found sixty three I'm
just tossing out a number, by the way, sixty three
classified documents that Joe Biden shouldn't have been in possession of.
(11:53):
We did an exhaustive search of every possible place where
he's got access, and we found documents in his office
in DC. We found documents in his home, We found
documents in his beach house wherever they found them, put
it out all at once as one story. The drip drip,
drip of not only did he have documents here, but
(12:15):
he had them there. To me looks worse and makes
it feel like a targeted hit in some way, as
opposed to just letting him get in front of the story.
Now you may disagree. I think the drip is worse
because it makes look more incompetent. It also raises the
question of, Okay, when did this search actually happen at
his home? You could argue, You could argue that though
(12:37):
by talking about the first one, you open up the
possibility of the second one. And that's why the media
was already shaping this with it was basically, let's be clear,
classified documents were found in some Biden office for some
bull think tank that was paying him seven hundred and
seventy thousand dollars a year. The University of Pennsylvania has
(12:57):
money to light on fire obviously, because that's well, they're
actually buying influences. We know, we know what they were buying,
and the apparatus takes care of its own. But the
story was actually but Trump was worse. That was the
whole the whole day was Trump. That's why this is
so fascinating me. Buck. They let all of the advocates
come out and defend Biden, and now the core vette
(13:18):
line and the garage. It's like they chopped off the
head of all the defenders because it made them look ridiculous.
I also, I am so curious. You know we got that,
oh Trump had the nuclear the nuclear information, the single
thing that somebody who is not particularly uh you know,
in touch with classification and rules of national security, but
you know, somebody hears the nuke secrets might have been leaked.
(13:41):
Any normal person's gonna get freaked out. Do you think
we're ever gonna find out some of the some of
the details. Magically, there'll be some leaks of the press
about what TS documents top secret documents? Did Biden have
hanging out in a garage next to Oiley rags and
you know his Christmas decorations. That's I don't think we're
gonna ever see that, which is also another indicator here,
(14:02):
but Clay, we got a lot of my friend because look,
this affects, This affects Biden running again, This affects Trump's
ability to one win the primary and to win a
general like. There's a lot of moving pieces that tie
into this all of a sudden, so we got a
busy day. We haven't even talked about the nationwide egg shortage. Everybody.
(14:25):
I will. The food that I love the most is
red meat. The food that I am most dependent on, clay,
is egg I eat eggs like every day, and there
is literally I'm not even it's not a joke. Everybody,
there's a nationwide shortage of chicken eggs. Thank you, Joe Biden.
We'll talk about this in a moment. Mike Lendale is
the inventor of my pillow. You guys don't know Mike.
(14:47):
You see him on TV. Here him here on this show.
He's got a passion to help everyone get the best
sleep of their life. And if you've ever seen him,
like I said, you just know how true that is.
So let me tell you about this, the Geeza dream sheets.
I know the pillows are probably the most famous, but
the Geeza dream sheets have been a game changer for me.
They're named after a region in Egypt, Geeza, where the

that's also where the Great Pyramids are by the way.
The Geeza dream Sheets are what I sleep on every night.

(15:54):
you d real, chiefing it honest. Clay Travis and Buck
Sexton walk back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show. We
should mention Merrick Garland has a press conference scheduled for
one fifteen Eastern today, Buck that will be followed by
Karen Jean Pierre, who has scheduled a White House press
(16:15):
conference for one thirty I don't see any way possible
that they are avoiding doing a special counsel announcement. Do
you agree or disagree with that? So this is interesting.
The Democrats have always avoided special counsels up to this point,
so I think they are unlikely to do it. However,
(16:38):
because they're in charge of the DOJ the damage of
a special counsel, they will hand pick a Democrat partisan
to run the special Council if they do it, and
they know that Merrick Garland, under no circumstances, will take
any action or even release any report that is damaging
to Democrats. I still think though, they won't do it,
because even the appointment of a special counsel would be
(16:59):
a session, and they don't make concessions. That's why they
have the media apparatus that they do running cover for
them all the time. You would also then wonder why
a special counsel on this and not the Hunter Biden issue,
which is, if you were creating in a lab the
perfect conditions for a special council administration, it would be
the son of the sitting president selling access to that
(17:20):
president and engage in multiple federal felonies in the process. Right,
That's it'd be hard to think of a more clear
case for why you would need so they haven't done
it for that Clay. Now you can argue that sets
a precedent, or you can argue this is a straw
that breaks the Campbell's back, so to speak. With the documents.
And so now they finally have to You think they will.
(17:41):
I think they still won't. I think they will in
this case. I think they'd rather have a special counsel
in this case because the comparative punishments are light, whereas
what Hunter Biden may well have done based on all
the evidence, is way more significant. So my prediction is
about forty five minutes officially have a special council announced.
(18:02):
We'll see whether that comes true. How many days worth

Sext on the Truck Lines of Truth Welcome back in
Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. We are discussing the revelations
surround funding the newest details about Joe Biden's continuing to
have more and more classified documents now not only in
(19:10):
his Washington DC office, but in his garage next to
his corvette, as he said a little over an hour ago.
And I wonder now, I think the timeline becomes significant, Buck,
in terms of what Merrick Garland decides to do, because
I just want to emphasize this and I don't think
(19:32):
it's being discussed enough. They initially made the uncut the
discovery of these classified documents on November second, six days
before the mid term. I believe it was on November
eighteenth that Merrick Garland announced a special counsel when it
became clear that Donald Trump, he said, was going to
run for president and therefore there were political calculations involved
(19:57):
that required a special counsel. I want to know when
were these documents in the garage uncovered? Why are we
hearing piecemeal or are there documents in Joe Biden's beach house?
When did this? When did this search take place? Was
(20:18):
it after the November second discovery? Was it two months
ago as well? Was it recent? We need to know
the timeline to have a better sense of how this
discovery happened. And I do think that implicates on some
level the decision of Merrick Garland, because the timing on
this buck when I think through it, you have the
(20:39):
piecemeal unveiling of multiple locations classified document discovery. But it
suggests now that Merrick Garland is having a press conference
that maybe he didn't know about these garage documents. It's
just very strange. I can't imagine. I mean, keep in mind,
they didn't they didn't appoint a special council for the
(21:00):
Hillary Clinton email server, right, Barack Obama did not. In fact,
as we all recall, Loretta Lynch had that just happenstance
coincidental sit down with Bill Clinton and excused his Secret
Service detail and hers from the meeting on the private
(21:20):
jet on the tarmac in Arizona, right before James Comey
came forward and said nobody would ever bring charges against Hillary.
So I think it's important we never allow ourselves to
forget the context for these decisions that are being made,
and how partisan they are, how outrageously one sided. This
DOJ apparatus because it is of the party of the state,
(21:43):
the Democrats, unfortunately the statists, that's what they're doing. And
I gotta say, if we find another batch, what are
the chance of we meaning, if it comes out that
there's another batch of classified documents. In this case, this
is the Wilmington, Delaware home they found these ones. There's
also the Rohobeth Beach home. At some point it turns
(22:06):
into the public recognizing that this is probably I'm not
I don't mean this to be funny. I think this
is what happens when you have somebody who is in
this age range and has cognitive function that is clearly eroding,
as Joe Biden's is. They're going to forget stuff, They're
going to leave things around now that raises the sympathy level,
(22:29):
and certainly also not that they would charge him anyway
with anything. He's the president. You know it's not going
to happen. But I think, Clay, they have to be
very careful here, because how do they spend that now?
The partisans don't care. You and I both know that
forty six percent of the country is going to vote
Democrat in the next presidential election no matter what. You
(22:51):
rolled Joe Biden out with a blanket across his knees
mumbling about how he wants to go feed peanuts to
the squirrels, and forty five percent of Democrats still vote
for him. They don't care, but they know they got
to get that middle two, three percent, five percent, whatever
it's going to be in the next election. And that
may be too much of an ask. If Joe Biden
is so clearly fading, do you think is the machine
(23:16):
protecting him, Clay, or is the machine setting him up
to move him? I think it's a political hit job,
and that's why, and I know you don't. You don't
necessarily have the same read on this that I do.
But if I am a crisis coordinator, right, I'm a
PR expert who is trying to figure out how to
(23:36):
spin this story. I want it all out instantly, every
classified document that he had, and oh, by the way,
let me just say this, I also want every classified
document that got discovered immediately destroyed and this story to
never come out. All right, I'm just gonna be honest
with you if I am. The thing that surprises me
(23:59):
about this story on some level is that we're even
hearing about these classified documents. It also makes me wonder
were there other classified documents that we're not going to
hear about, because remember, this is a search that has
been allowed to be done undertaken by Joe Biden. They
(24:20):
didn't call in the FBI. And you made the point, yes, okay,
well maybe that's because they're not arguing about these documents.
But if you had a choice, Buck, between your chosen allies,
your employees effectively going through all your papers, or someone
who is independent going through all your papers who may
(24:41):
have an issue with you, I would rather have my
allies my employees. So the fact that this is coming
out drip by drip, I really think what we talked
about this quite a bit, Buck, What do left wingers
fear the most in the public having their intelligence ridicule,
(25:01):
being embarrassed, being mocked, being derided publicly. They let all
of Joe Biden's defenders come out and say, oh, this
is nothing like Trump. I read yesterday in the New
York Times big long article. They're somewhat similar, but what
Trump did is far worse. And now they're out on
(25:23):
the hook with they had a legal classified documents and
a garage by a corvette. It makes them look dumb.
It looks swoppy. I don't disagree with your analysis on this.
I would offer an alternative to it, but I'm not.
You could be I'm not. I don't think that's wrong.
I think there's another possibility though, right so, like I'm
(25:45):
still looking, I viewed as like a menu at this point,
I may order clays from column ay. But Colum b isn'
as another possibility in my mind, which is that by
getting all the first of all the defenders of the regime,
remember Russia collusion and all the stuff out there, everybody
the defenders of the regime have to be willing to
look like morons with no ethics if they really want
(26:08):
to be at the cool kids table, like that is
a requirement. The fifty one intelligence agents, Russian disinformation on
undred percent a lie. You read my mind about my
next thought, that wasn't a problem for their careers. That
was them taking one for the team, willing to look
like morons to defend Joe Biden in that moment. It
(26:30):
didn't matter how obvious and willing to light their integrity
on fire, which they did. So that we have to
always remember as part of this, the part of it
that I think may come into this is by immediately
launching the whole Trump is that Trump's were worse and
this is Marlago and putting that defense in place, I
think that they are hoping to conflate all this in
(26:52):
just a Biden v. Trump issue instead of a Biden
is a reckless and senile old man who made really
this allegations against another political figure, Trump or anybody else
around this same issue. And clearly there's a problem here,
you see what I mean. So that's my other alternative
option for this. But I'm not sure. I'm not sure
that I disagree with yours. Yeah, And the other thing
(27:13):
I would say, and we're going to hear from Mayor
Garland in about thirty minutes, and we were talking about
what he may or may not. You think special counsel.
I think, no special counsel. But he says, we're really sorry.
It was not it was not good. I think what
has happened here, Buck, If you look at all of
the things that you could go after Trump for obstruction
(27:35):
through the classified documents, is actually the least complicated charge
to bring. And I think Biden has stepped all over
and effectively destroyed because you can make an argument, oh,
what Trump did is still worse because he was arguing
back and forth, and the general public is not going
(27:56):
to buy that when you've got classified documents next to
your core Vett in the girls right that this obliterated
that argument. That's calls out. So I think what ends
up happening, This is my prediction, and it would play
out into the summer. I think what ends up happening
is Merritt Garland comes out and lectures in July or
(28:16):
August associated with the classified documents. He appoints a special counsel.
They determined that both men have improperly handled classified documents.
And he comes out and wags his finger and says,
we need more. You know, everybody is making this error
not treating classified documents securely enough. There are probably crimes
(28:39):
that have been committed, but because it's happening across the
political board, everybody needs to know. He's the He's like
the you know, school principle who comes in and lectures
the class but hold performing well enough. There are a
few implications of what you're saying. One is you had
been thinking for the last six months that they were
going to charge Trump, so they could charge Hunter. Since
(28:59):
we both agree, yeah, they're not charging Trump. I don't
think Clay in twenty twenty three. We we already know
what happened in twenty twenty two. You doubted me on
that one, Well, doubting what this takes off the table?
Is the way do you agree with that? Is that
is that no longer on the table. I still think
they could charge Trump for January six transgressions. So if
(29:20):
they do that, then I think they still have the
opportunity to do something related to Hunter. But I think
they the fart that January sixth. This complicated buck because
it's attenuated. There are all sorts of difficulties associated with
January six charges that to me didn't apply as it
pertains to the classified docks, and I think this is
(29:43):
taking it off the table and turned it into a
huge mess. But we'll know in about thirty minutes whether
that special Council's coming or not. In the meantime, you know,
Joe Biden a lot of boxes in the garage. Have
you got boxes in your garage? You aren't taking of
all of your secure family memories. Don't be like Joe
(30:06):

Biden for a lot of things the last couple of years.
(31:35):
You gotta give credit where it's due. He is the
champ when it comes to inflation, going all the way
back to nineteen eighty. He's also been able to preside
over the worst supply chain crisis in living memory, at
least the worst that I'm aware of. He presided over
a shortage of baby formula last summer that continued on
(32:00):
this buck for for people out there trying to buy.
It hasn't gone away, which is kind of crazy. It's
the story's gone away, but it's still an issue for people.
And now a shortage nationwide of eggs. Eggs not only
are about twice as expensive as they were a year ago,
(32:21):
which you gotta think about this. Eggs are a staple food, right,
I think of all the things they're put in. Are you,
by the way, are you are you a scrambled eggs guy?
An omelet guy? You know what? You eat eggs almost
every day? I was trying to think. I don't remember
unless it's in a restaurant. I don't remember the last
time I had eggs. Oh wow, I mean for me,
(32:41):
it's like the easiest best tasting questions house right now
or hardly ever? Wow? Is that weird? I don't know.
Maybe I just will like, what do you eat for breakfast?
We have? Well, first of all, I have the three boys?
So are you a cereal? Family of cereal? A lot
of cereal? But all so my boys love? And every
(33:02):
time I say this that there's like people are like
that exists. It's hard. There's this dinosaur oatmeal with like
fake not fake, but like would all like eggs that
erupt as you cook it. We've had it. I don't
know how much dinosaur oatmeal we have bought in the
Travis household, but we have to be in the top
one percent of dinosaur oatmeal consumers, that's the other thing.
So my boys eat either cereal or this dinosaur oatmeal.
(33:25):
So I like the proteins. And I did share this
on Twitter with everybody. Game changer for your scrambled eggs
out there, honestly, for your omelets to the biggest, the
biggest thing that people do with eggs. They overcook them,
and you actually get so used to it because if
you go to uh like Shawnees or um, you know,
(33:46):
any of these places where they have big buffets, like
what are the big buffet restaurant? I'm trying to pick
Denny's and like den thank you, you know, um, even
probably a waffle house and uh International House of Pancakes,
all these kinds of places. The eggs that they give
you a lot of the time it comes from some
from a mix. They're like instant eggs. But even if
(34:06):
they're making them, they cooked them so that they're rubbery
and kind of hard, and that's gross. That's actually not
what you want when you're cooking your egg I'm gonna
tell you, you want them to maintain a bit of
the moisture. You're starting to sound a little bit like
James Gordon here, are we gonna get a aggry buck
egg egg feud in a restaurant at sometime? I'm gonna
lie like maybe he was right that they overcooked his
(34:27):
egg white on lit a little bit. I don't know,
but I do know that cook your eggs slow and
taken off the heat entirely, and you will thank me.
Cook them slow. You can cook eggs in a minute.
That's and people get used to it. You just fire
up that pan and then you've got the eggs that
you would get at some you know seven ninety nine
buffet place off of I ninety five, not to visiting
(34:48):
wrong with that, but you can make better eggs at
home for yourself. So aren't eggs costing like in the shortage?
They cost way more? Right? Because one time we have
lots of eggs in the house is Easter because the
kids all die the Easter eggs, and like we spent
like then we have oodles of eggs because I end
up eating them all hard boiled eggs afterwards. But they're
(35:09):
like nine dollars a dozen or something someplace, Yes, aren't there.
They've gotten very expensive. And then there's also all the
different varieties of eggs, and people get really into this.
Whether the eggs are cage free or whether they're free range.
Are they grain fed or are they corn fed? These
are all different if you look at if you look
(35:30):
at the egg section. Now there's a lot of different
people have gotten really into this. And I will say,
though your egg, if it's fresh, it really is kind
of this bright orange color. You don't want the dull yellow.
You want to bright orange color and expert on eggs.
I would not have expected you to have so much
egg knowledge, Clay. I like to keep people on their toes.
You know this is so what about the brown egg
versus not to be racist, the brown egg versus the
(35:52):
white egg? And aren't there like speckled eggs? Like is
this a difference in your experience? I'm not aware of
any of any difference. It's based on the shell. So
it is what is inside the egg that counts as
far as I know, you know, terms of flavor and
everything else. But I will say I just got a text.
People are like dinosaur oatmeal. That sounds awesome. And my
(36:14):
little nephew who's two, we gotta get him some dinosaur oatmeal.
It is an amazing product. You get different numbers of
eggs you can help to learn, to teach the kids
how to count by the number of eggs in the oatmeal.
And my boys have loved it since they were like
little kids. It's got dinosaurs on the cover. I'm probably
(36:35):
gonna sell out now dinosaur oatmeal nationwide, but my kids
love it. Little eggs inside. I eat by the way,
I can think I'm kind of boring a Kirkland's breakfast bar. Kirkland's,
of course, Costco brand almost every single morning for breakfast. Up. Next,
what do we have? Oh? The governor of Texas
