Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck
Sexton Show podcast. Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show.
We're rolling through the second hour of the program. Appreciate
all of you hanging out with us. Continue to go
all over the place with the show, try to connect
with as many of you and as many different parts
of the country as possible. I am down on the
(00:20):
Florida Gulf Coast in Panama City Beach. Buck is in
New York City. Tons of Clay and Buck listeners down
here along the Gulf Coast region of Florida, Southern Alabama,
lots of the Red State Brethren, my big SEC football fans.
This is our home base. In many ways. We are
having an awesome time hanging out with you. Great weather
(00:41):
starting to kind of finally turn into spring, maybe feeling
like summer for many of you out there. And as
the summer is starting to get closer and closer, Buck,
the Democrats are turning up the heat. And what they're recognizing,
I think is abortion isn't going to be the Hail
Mary that they thought it was. It's not going to
(01:03):
save them from electoral oblivion this November. And that's because
their abortion position is so extreme, and some of you
out there are saying, hey, I'm not sure whether I'm
seeing this yet. I'm telling you what you're going to
see is the argument that is already occurring, which is,
it's not about Roe v. Wade, it's that your contraception
(01:26):
is in danger, which is a why it's that gay
people in classrooms is in danger what Joe Biden tried
to argue, which is a why they are building extremism
in because they're recognizing that most people think, hey, abortion
shouldn't be legal in the seventh, eighth or ninth month,
(01:47):
and they're trying to make Republicans seem like extremists. And
I got to give credit here. There's also an underlying
element that I think it's pretty substantial of abortions, be honest,
that's actually racist. And the eugenics movement that was much
of the basis for abortion planned parenthood back in the
(02:10):
day kind of jumped right into public view here during
testimony in the Senate with Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina,
who confronted Treasury Secretary Janet Yelling on the issue of abortion.
And if you haven't heard this audio yet, just listen.
(02:30):
This is quite the CounterPunch from Senator Tim Scott of
South Carolina. In many cases, abortions are of teenage women,
particularly low income and often black, who aren't in a
position to be able to care for children, have unexpected pregnancies,
(02:52):
and it deprives them of the ability, often to continue
their education to later participation aid in the workforce, So
there is a spillover into labor force participation, and it
means the children will grow up in poverty and do
do worse themselves. Thank you, let me let me just
(03:14):
this is the truth. I'll just simply say that, as
a guy raised by a black woman in abject poverty,
I'm thankful to be here. Good moment for Senator Scott.
They are really made the point powerfully, I think for
everybody to hear, which is that there's something really obtuse
and evil in many of the arguments that are being
made right and super racist Janet Yelling, They're like, this
(03:37):
is one of the lines that I think George W.
Bush got so right buck the soft bigotry of low expectations.
It was oozing out of her commentary there. I mean,
people should know that, and they don't. By the way.
This is not denied, This is not contended or contentious.
The founder of planned parenthood was a Margaret Sanger YEP,
(03:58):
a absolutely eugenicist, believed in eugenics, believed in limiting what
she deemed quote undesirables, and spoke to the women's auxiliary
of the Ku Klux Klan in New Jersey to generate
support for her movement. She supported the Supreme Courts nineteen
(04:21):
twenty seven decision Buck v. Bell, which allowed for the
sterilization of people who were deemed unfit without their consent.
She was a horrible human being, okay, and this is
the founder of planned parenthood. She was a vile racist.
And there's even if you if you look at even
(04:42):
on planned parenthood side, and you'll see the stuff clay
they've had to say, Yeah, okay, she was an awful eugenicist,
but she did so much to liberate women. Does anyone else,
you know, just just put this into context for a second.
Does anyone else in conversation in public discourse these these
days get that kind of Oh, but they actually did
(05:05):
something we really like, so we'll forget that other stuff. Absolutely,
you know, we're supposed to remove busts of Thomas Jefferson.
But Margaret Sang and they did your city. They did
it in New York City. That's what I'm thinking of.
And Margaret Sanger was a vile human being who believed
in destroying undesirable babies. This is reality, folks, and they
(05:29):
still celebrate her and her movement. It's pretty it's pretty
outrageous and appalling when you actually look into the history.
Speaking of which, by the way, I went to George
Washington University in Washington, DC. Buck, did you see that
they're trying to strip George Washington's name from George Washington University.
There was an editorial in the Washington Post about it,
(05:53):
which is amazing because is the Washington Post therefore calling
for the removal of the word Washington in their newspaper name.
And remember Buck, when everybody said Donald Trump was crazy
when he said they're not going to stop with Confederate statues.
If you're gonna try to tear down the statues of
Robert E. Lee or Stonewall Jackson or James Longstreet or
(06:14):
any of these Confederate generals, then eventually they're gonna come
for Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, and all the left
wing libs were like, oh, Donald Trump is so out
to lunch there. This is such a slippery slope argument.
There's no way that's going to happen. It's happened. And
speaking of slippery slope arguments, I'm telling you this is
(06:35):
what they're gonna do. Roe v. Wade not going to
argue about abortion. We're going to argue about all your
other rights that are under siege. And this is what
Mayor Pete is already trying to do. You'll listen to
cut ten here that we've got. What else is the
Supreme Court coming forward? Listen to me right now. Suburban moms,
(06:55):
suburban women. I was talking to a bunch of moms.
They are all different sorts of text chains and viral
threads about how contraceptions under danger and how now you're
not going to be able to even go out and
make birth control decisions on your own. Those are wise.
The Democrats are trying to get you riled up. You
(07:17):
need to be talking to your mom friends and telling
them this isn't true. Here's Mayor Pete trying to fan
the flames. Listen right now, The focus rightly is on
women and the right to choose. And I will say,
you know, for all of my life and all of
modern American history, I think the direction that we've been
going in as a country, the direction that the Constitution
(07:41):
has led us to in the Supreme Court, has been
one of expanding rights, has been one of expanding freedoms.
And suddenly this decision, if this is what the decision
will be, represents a retreat from them. And if this
memo turns into a decision, appears to have very little
regard for precedent. And I'm not comforted by any of
(08:02):
the reins assurances that that would not lead to other
freedoms falling. I mean, this is what you're trying to
hear because their arguments are not persuasive. So what are
they doing. They're saying things. This is what the Democrat
playbook right now is unfolding for all of us to see.
You can just watch this day by day as it goes.
(08:25):
They say things that are not true about the decision.
They try to frighten people about the implications of this.
They do this constantly. By the way they said about
citizens United, it would be unprecedented foreign cash coming into
our elections. None of that was true what they actually wanted.
Not to get too deep into Citizens United, the federal
government under the Obama administration held that they had a
(08:46):
right to ban books in advance of an election from publication,
not allowed to publish a book within sixty days or
ninety days, and that was a federal right in Citizens United,
which is crazy. That's what the Obamas of bomba solicitor
general try to advance in that argument, and the Left
just lied about it. Oh it's foreign money on this,
they're lying about it. Of course, again on a whole
(09:08):
range of issues. Their arguments are super weak. The argument
on precedent, this is just this is like arguing with
a toddler, like they just keep coming back to this
precedent isn't what they seem to You know, that word
does not mean what they seem to think it means.
It doesn't mean that you can never overturn something. It
doesn't mean that there's that starry decisis is set in stone.
And now with this clay, it's, oh man, we're not
(09:30):
getting people fired up enough over telling them that they're
gonna lose their right to abortion. We're gonna say you're
gonna lose all of these other rights to contraception. I mean,
I remember, didn't didn't someone ask Mitt Romney about whether
he wanted to ban I can think there was am
I misremembering this? Didn't Mit Romney get asked, do you
want would you ban contraception? I mean, this is what
(09:51):
there is. There is an argument that they are trying
to make buck and this to me goes to the
point that Roe v. Wade being overturned is not the
electoral strategy that's going to guarantee them success that many
are trying to argue, because what they're trying to build
on is they are saying, well, if Roe v. Wade
gets overturned, then Griswold could get overturning Griswold effectively is
(10:17):
the precedent that allowed married couples to make birth controlled decisions.
And so I think this is important and I think
this is a big conversation that moms need to be
having with other moms, the same way that I've talked
about these COVID restrictions and the incredibly deleterious impact that
it has had on children and who made that happen.
(10:38):
These are conversations that moms need to happen, need to have,
and I think Republicans need to be straightforward, transparent and
clear about this. We're not coming for your birth control,
right There's there's no anti there's no big national decades
long anti birth control, and you know for in the home,
but that doesn't even exist. Well, what are we gonna do.
(10:59):
We're gonna have like a black market for condoms. I mean,
give me a break, this is absurd. No one actually
when they're trying to sell it, and there are people
who want to sell it, and there are people who
are willing to buy it. And that is why this
word of mouth conversations that moms have, which is in
bat like if you want to know how every business
(11:19):
works buck that involves children, it's all word of mouth
and it's all mom conversations. And that's why you guys
out there listening to us right now need to nip
this argument in the bud because it is a lot. Plus,
the most effective form of birth control is free. Just
become a radical feminist. Relief factor, folks. Relief factor is
(11:40):
a product that provides a solution of people contending with
everyday pain that refuses to go away. Created by doctors
and perfected with over fifteen years of scientific research. Relief
Factor is a one hundred percent drug free product that
was made for you. It goes to the source of
your pain, which is often inflammation. It doesn't take long
to determine if relief Factor might work for you. Hundreds
(12:01):
of thousands of people have taken relief Factor and found
real relief from their pain. Nearly seven out of ten
of those who go onto order relief Factor order more
because it's working for them. Three weeks, twenty dollars, some time,
some consistency. That's all you need to see if this
works for you. My dad takes relief Factor every day.
Our friends at relief Factor have developed a three week
(12:22):
quickstart pack so you can see if this actually works
for you. Here's what you do. You take relief Factor
three times a day breakfast, lunch, and dinner for three
weeks and you'll know if it works for you or not.
Join them more than half a million people and order
the three week quickstart for only nineteen ninety five Good
a relief Factor dot com or call eight hundred four
relief Get the nineteen ninety five three week quickstart developed
(12:44):
for you one more time good relief Factor dot Com
or call eight hundred the number four relief move more,
live more, just enjoy your life more with relief Factor.
Welcome back in the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show.
Our buddy David Marcus from the New York Post will
(13:04):
be joining us in a few minutes. He has been
a long time implacable foe of Fouciism. We're talking about
that and just everything going on on the political scene
right now. Some big primaries happening here. There was I
think just yesterday Nebraska primary was getting some attention. There
was also the West. There was a West Virginia Republican
(13:24):
congressman versus Republican congressman because they lost a seat in
the in the new apportionment. So there's a lot going
on the political world. Will follow up with all of
that in a couple of moments here. But first, what
does cowardice sound like? Or is it stupidity? I don't
(13:44):
know when you're talking about Beto O'Rourke, whether he's too
dumb to know or too much of a fraud to
know how silly the things he says. Maybe that's up
for debate. I can be pushed in either direction. It's
Betto too dumb or is he too dishonest? It could
go either way, but you should hear that there are
(14:06):
politicians out there right now. It's just not a hypothetical.
The state of California just passed a bill that makes
abortion all nine months of her pregnancy. If they if
they didn't want to allow for ninth month abortion, why
have that in the statute? Why not say abortion for
the first six months or three months, or whatever the
case may be. But they said all nine months of
(14:27):
a pregnancy. Beto O'Rourke, who is just I did? It's
so flimsy is the word that I always think of
when this guy comes in mind. Just there's nothing to
recommend this guy, but he seems to think he was
born for it. I should be president here. He is
telling everybody no limits to abortion at all, or won't
(14:50):
say anything about it. Why do you believe in any
limits limitations on abortion, whether it's the third trimester or
up until even the final months nine months. I think roversus,
which we should remind ourselves, is still the law of
the land today. Is the reference point that I would
look to. And the way I think I can best
(15:10):
express this is that I trust women. We should all
trust women to make their own decisions that are in
their best interests for themselves, for their healthcare, and for
their future. That's the way it's been literally my entire life.
I'm forty nine years old. Hey, can I say Beto
was the guy in college who always showed up at
the party with the guitar and was talking to every
guy's girlfriend. That's Peto. I just look, this is what
(15:34):
Republicans should be focusing on. And I can't believe the
Senate is going to vote not to codify Roe v. Wade,
but to effectively say abortion can happen all the way
up to nine months. And we heard the guy who's
supposed to be a moderate in Ohio, Tim Ryan say
on Fox News to Brett Bayer, Yeah, I support abortion
(15:55):
all the way up to the ninth month. Beto down
in Texas is saying the same thing. It's what should
happen in Georgia. To Stacy Abrahams, you want incentive to
go vote in the midterms in twenty twenty two, here's
what you can do. Among many other things, I think
you can retire Beto forever in Texas because if he
loses like he did to Ted Cruz, in the Senate
(16:17):
if he gets whipped by Greg Abbott, which I think
he's going to do, and if Stacy Abrams gets whipped
by the winner of the Republican governmentorial primary right now,
which is going to be happening in Georgia, I believe
the twenty fourth, it's coming up very soon, the week
after next. Those people are dead in terms of being
viable candidates in the states of Georgia, in Texas, and
(16:39):
they were the patron saints of the Democrat Party. But
you have to put everybody on the record when you
say that you support abortion rights. You need to be
on the record for what does that mean. Does that
mean that a day before a woman would give birth
with a huge pregnant belly, nine months of pregnancy, that
(17:00):
you are okay with an abortion taking place. That's a
murder buck okay, And I think the vast majority of
Americans believe it, particularly in the eighth and ninth month,
in that third trimester. And this is a radical proposition
that is not supported by the vast majority. And Republicans
need to get Democrats on the record for what they
(17:21):
think about ninth month abortions, because it is murder and
it isn't supported by hardly anybody, Democrat, Republican, independent, all
over the political spect It shouldn't be hard for Democrat
elected leaders to condemn an obviously monstrous practice. They will
not do it. Yep, they're they're fraid. They're fraid to
(17:43):
in any way limit abortion rights. Buck and that needs
to be a part of this twenty twenty two election cycle.
Everybody should have to go on the record. That's the
benefit of tossing everything back to the states and to
the politicians. We got a brand new sponsor here helping
many guys in the audience. Chalk is that new sponsor.

(19:21):
buck Sexton Show appreciate all of you hanging out with us.
We roll through the Wednesday edition of the program. We
are joined now by David Marcus, who has done many
things in his life, including being a theater actor. He's
also Brooklyn based columnist and author of Charade, The covid
Lies That Crushed a Nation. And David, we appreciate you
(19:45):
making the time to join the show here. But I
wanted to play this audio for you to see what
you thought of this. On Broadway, there was fury over
a mask not being worn correctly. I just want to
let you react, as a theater guy to what your
reaction would be to this. Let's play it. Put your
(20:07):
masks over your noses? Do you want me to? Because
I will your mouth protect me so that I can
perform your over your nose. That why you're in. That
is the rule. If you don't want to follow the rule,
who get out? By the way that are sitting around you.
(20:38):
This is my wife's biggest fear. I think, probably buck
if she took me to a Broadway play, that I
wouldn't be wearing my mask correctly. And I just started
getting screamed at by an actress on the stage. Uh, David.
When you hear that, your reaction is what, Yeah, it's amazing.
It is the perfect symbol of why theater is basically
dead in the United States of America, because theaters don't
(21:02):
want to put people on stage who are going to
do an entertaining show for you anymore. They want to
put people on stage to lecture you about how you
should live. Right, don't forget the cast of Hamilton lecturing
Vice President Pence. Right, Yeah, that's what this industry has become.
I spent fifteen years in the New York theater scene,
and listen, man, Hollywood's progressive, but I mean Hollywood's the
(21:25):
National Review compared to the New York theater scene, and
they've destroyed an industry, and that was just that was
just a perfect whiney, screaming example of exactly how they've
done it. By way, David, great to have you on
the show man. I live right next to you. I
walk past a Broadway theater every time I go to
(21:45):
and from my apartment, and there's a line of people outside.
There's these mask minders that have their masks on outside
mind you, who walk up and down the line. They
also do this for the Colbert Bear Show whatever, same thing.
The mask minders make sure you are masked up in
(22:05):
line outside before you go in, and then the ushers.
From what I understand, I talk to your friend who
went to a Broadway show recently that you know, if
you if you're like probably talking or being annoying things
that actually bother normal people. Now that's not the big deal.
If your mask drops down, you get one warning and
then they come over and basically say, you know, do
you want to be expelled from the theater? I mean,
(22:28):
why would anyone put themselves through? This is what I
wanted to like, how can anyone, David, the people that
are going to these theaters in New York. And there's
some other places across the country where I think this
still exists, but nowhere like Broadway. They're going to crowded
restaurants and bars before and after they sit in the
Broadway Theater without masks on. No look, none of it,
(22:48):
None of it makes any sense, of course. But again
I think it's down to an American arts community that
are just rule followers that don't even make art anymore.
They just kind of like pat people on the heads
for having the right views about you know, race and
(23:09):
gender and masks. I mean, when I started doing theater
in the nineteen nineties in New York, you know, the
last thing we were ever doing was thinking about wearing
a mask or not getting sick. We were artists, Yeah,
we were dangerous. You know, these people are about as
dangerous as Elmer's Blue David. We were just talking about
off air because Buck obviously he's in New York City Alley,
(23:30):
our producer, a lot of our staff are there, and
we're doing a one year anniversary event in New York
City soon. And are you concerned, as someone who lives
in Brooklyn that with COVID cases ticking back up with
the Biden white House talking about the mid term variant
that might suddenly cause one hundred million more cases. You
(23:50):
still got two year olds that have to wear masks
in New York. To Buck's point, you got actors and
actresses lecturing people from the stage and Broadway productions for
not wearing their masks correctly. Are you concerned as as
the summer comes to a close in the next several
months and we moved towards the fall, that insanity is
going to return its full grip of fascist power to
(24:13):
New York City, the place that you live. Oh, yeah,
of course I'm concerned. You know, it's not just the
place I live, it's the place that I love. And
you know, it's happened too many times. I mean, there
were there were too many times when you know, I'd
see Buck and I'd say, Buck, I think where I
think we turned the corner here right at Nope. So yeah,
(24:34):
I am very concerned. I will say though, that on
the basic institutional level, the freak out for the most
part is calming down. Like you know, my eleven year
old had COVID recently and a year ago in terms
of school, that would have been you know, the end
of the world. And everything show, and it's just not anymore.
(24:56):
So I do think that the people who run the
institutions and most of the New Yorkers don't want to
go back to that. But look, if our governor says
you're going back, we're going back. Man. We learned that
lesson right. It's crazy. David Marcus is a columnist for
The New York Post, author of Charade, The Covid Lies
that Crushed the Nation. David, I don't know if you
(25:17):
if you saw it or heard it, but Fauci got
an honorary doctorate at the University of Michigan. I guess
it was over this past weekend, and there was uproarious
applause for this guy, like standing ovation and and I
just there's a part of me that I'm never gonna
let this go until the truth about Fauci becomes the
(25:41):
overwhelming lore of the land, if you will, like I just,
I just refuse to let this guy, not just as
a New york A lot of people listening in cities
across the country had to deal with the lunacy as well,
but in New York it feels particularly personal. The Fauci crep. Yeah,
I mean, it absolutely does. I mean, it doesn't help
that the guys from South Brooklyn, but um, yeah, listen, listen.
(26:05):
There is a certain percentage of the American people who
went to such bizarre, crazy extremes, not leaving their apartment,
you know, washing their groceries, not touching their face, all
of these things, right, who balked completely into it, who
are never going to be psychologically capable of admitting that
(26:25):
that was a mistake, of saying, I refuse to hug
my grandmother for two years. Oops. Right, there's a lot
of people who are just never That's a big that's
a big thing to have to face, and I think
a lot of people are just not going to do it.
We already have the studies, guys, right, we have to
John Hopkins study, We have other studies. We know that
(26:47):
Florida doesn't didn't have vastly more depths than New York
and did way way better economically. The results of this
whole thing are in. There's just a bunch of Americans
who are never going to accept it. Speaking of that, David,
I'm sure a lot of people saw the Bill Gates
News where Bill Gates basically along with everybody else who's
gotten four COVID shots, feels obligated to say when he
(27:11):
tests positive, I'm so thankful for my COVID shots, because
otherwise this would be so much worse. I think most
reasonable people out there, and I split this tweet out yesterday, Buck,
if you got a shot for something four times and
you still got it, you would think, what in the
world's going on? How awful is this COVID shot? Will
(27:33):
people David ever acknowledge that much of what they have done,
whether it's masks, whether it's getting a billion COVID shots,
that they really haven't done anything to alter the risk
analysis two year olds wearing masks. The requirements in New
York have done nothing. You just mentioned the divergence between
Florida and New York and all of New York has
(27:54):
done in many blue state cities and regions have destroyed
their amy with no comparative health benefit. Yeah. Absolutely. And
another thing that Gates said this might have been the
same interview, but I believe it was in the last week,
was you know he said, well, you know, we couldn't
possibly have known at the beginning that the infection fatality
(28:16):
rate was much lower than we thought. You know, who
knew that and I believe March seventh, twenty twenty was
Donald Trump who did an interview with Sean Hannity where
he said he had a hunch that that that fatality
rate was much much lower. Why because we weren't testing
asymptomatic people who don't show any illness. Donald Trump was
(28:37):
absolutely right. That was early March twenty twenty. So this
idea that that Bill Gates with everything he has at
his disposal, didn't know this, you know, it really just
shows you what was what was going on here. Check
out charade the covid lies that crushed a nation. David Marcus, David,
great to have you all, my friend, We'll talk to
(28:58):
you soon. Than guys do well. Look, a regular listener
here recently took her car into the tire shop asking
for a wheel alignment. Something was wrong when she was driving,
and she knew that and she thought it was maybe
a one hundred dollars fix. Turned out it was a
lot more than that cost to her some two thousand,
two hundred dollars in repairs. How to even plan for
(29:19):
that kind of repair bill. If she had car shield,
she would have been protected from such an expense. Car
shield is America's number one choice for vehicle protection plans.
When something goes wrong, you count on them to help
save you from expensive repairs and a whole lot more.
Car Shield offers protection plans for around one hundred bucks
a month. Whether your car is brand new this year
or celebrating a decade on the road, it doesn't matter.
(29:41):
There's a plan for you. When you need a repair,
you don't have to deal with the paperwork or headaches.
All you gotta do is choose the mechanic to do
the work and car Shield administrators handle the rest. You
can also count on car Shield that help take care
of you when your car breaks down and you're stuck

Clay Buck Show Going strong. Next hour, our friend Vivek Ramaswamy,
author of Woke, Inc. Gonna talk to us about some
(30:46):
of his plans to be a counter revolution to the
Woke corporate revolution. He's got some very interesting strategies and
things in mind as a very sharp guy. He'll be
with us bottom of the next hour. And we also
can get into some phone calls here. Perhaps we've got
a lot of lines. Let a lot of people want
to weigh in, and we always appreciate hearing from all
(31:07):
of you. Also, you can send us emails too. You
go to clanbuck dot com and you can subscribe. We've
got special content up there, behind the scenes videos and
you can send us vip emails and all kinds of
good stuff. Go to clanbuck dot com for all of that.
Clay you told me about this one, so I had
to watch this. I didn't know this was a thing
(31:28):
until you explained to this to me. But do you
know there's a couple and let's just be clear, we're
having fun with this one. It's not a big deal, right,
because that's the one thing lives whenever you trying to
make fun of something, What is it such a big
deal to you? It's not a big deal, But it's
kind of funny. A couple decided whose last name to use,
the man's or the woman's last name, so he would
(31:52):
take her last name if he lost, based on calling
a coin flip at the altar. Now, I've got to
say the things that we would know about them, Clay
based on this. Without it, I didn't even realize which
who actually won, and so if he took her name.
But we're talking about people who definitely are also upset
(32:14):
about the high price of vegan milk and probably announced
their pronouns. There is one hundred percent certainty in my
mind the guy who was willing to risk his last
name at a wedding make it clear here he was
going to take the girl's name over a coin flip
at his wedding. One voted for Joe Biden, and I
(32:39):
just buck, you're not married yet. I can't even imagine
as a man, risking your last name over a coin
flip and taking the girl's name. Now, look, if you're
both adults, and you've been working for a long time,
and the woman wants to keep her own last name
because she doesn't want to go through the trouble. I
(33:00):
understand that aspect, right, But me giving up my name
and taking her name, I can't even conceive of the
idea we had. We used to have a conversation on
the show because there was like a house that burned
down and a girl who was living there had thirteen
pet snakes. And my argument at the time Buck was
(33:21):
there's no girl on the planet who was good looking
enough that if she had thirteen pet snakes I would
date her, because I think she's got to be crazy
if she has thirteen pet snakes. I don't think there
is a wee. I've been married almost any years. One
is one pet snake too many pets, too many for me.
I would not I would not get a girl with
a pet snake here, if she's kying in the sand.
(33:41):
I'm sorry for the pet snake owners out there, but
we're talking about dating here. You're you're wake single girl
with a pet snake. I'm not getting anywhere near it.
Single girl with thirteen pet snakes. First of all, I
wouldn't be able to sleep in that place because the
snakes always get out of their cages. Buck, you're a
single guy still, and you imagine if a girl you
(34:02):
were dating was like, Hey, I'm happy to spend the
rest of my life with you, but at our marriage ceremony,
we have to have a coin flip to see whether
you take my last name or not. I just I
can't imagine the man who agrees to well, no, but
it's it's you gotta think about the upside, though, Clay,
because when you're the man who takes your wife's last name,
at least you know that when some guy bumps into
(34:24):
you in a bar, she's gonna be the one that
actually throws down, you know. So that's the good news
is that you'll say, my wife wants to have a
word with you, you ruffian. I can't imagine that there's
even very many women who would want to date a
man who was willing to do that. I've got three sons.
I would be there's a few things that my boys
(34:44):
could do if if they were getting married, they said, oh,
by the way, dad, we're gonna have a coin flip
at the ceremony to see whether I give up our
last name to take hers. I'd be like, yeah, we're
this is a no go. Yeah, I'd talk here. Yeah,
this is not sept I gotta say there there are Look,
you will come across. I'll just tell you, you know,
(35:06):
if you if if I put this out there, because
you're married, you can make these jokes name well. But
if I put out some joke about this, all of
these blue check females would all of a sudden be like, sorry,
some of us actually want to be dating a male feminist,
like there are people out there for whom a guy.
And now when I say people there are women for
(35:26):
whom a guy, and all of our all of our
listeners all across the country, who are women, are like,
you gotta be kidding me, But it's true. Who think
that it is? It's really sexy when a guy announces
his pronounced and it's like, I think, honestly, hyphenated names
are baseline for how we could have real equality going
forward in this relationship. So I'm just putting it out there.
(35:47):
I would not. I would, uh, Look, if you want
to keep your own name, that's fine, coin flip for
me to take your name. I I like, I can't
think of a faster way, you should run for the
hills if that conversation ever comes up. In my opinion,
and this went viral on TikTok, I feel like this
may turn into one of those one of those things
(36:08):
that becomes a trend because people seeing it on video now,
so there may be more of this. But if you
recall there was also those gender reveal parties. Oh, those
things are taken over? Which are they? Is that still
really happening because there were some where people like burned
down a national park because they had a gender reveal
party and there was pyrotechnics involved and that was the
(36:28):
thing that happened. Yeah, And also they always assume there's
two genders. The left gets very where's that gender? Very transphobic.
In fact, lots of people out there who are huge
trans advocates are actually selling the idea. Buck. Have you
seen this that the doctor gets it wrong when he
says whether a boy or girl is born. It's not
(36:50):
going to bet on the doctors getting it right. Yeah,
he thought he saw what he saw, but that's not
what he saw. He saw something else. And apparently your
fourth grade teacher is gonna explain that, or the kindergarten
teacher is gonna explain that to the kids. We got
a lot coming up here, folks, in just a moment.
Like I said our friend Vivek Ramaswamy, we'll talk to him.
By deministration and disarray. Things looking rougher and rougher with
(37:14):
the ward Ukraine. We'll talk about it all in more
stick around
Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck
Sexton Show podcast. Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show.
We're rolling through the second hour of the program. Appreciate
all of you hanging out with us. Continue to go
all over the place with the show, try to connect
with as many of you and as many different parts
of the country as possible. I am down on the
(00:20):
Florida Gulf Coast in Panama City Beach. Buck is in
New York City. Tons of Clay and Buck listeners down
here along the Gulf Coast region of Florida, Southern Alabama,
lots of the Red State Brethren, my big SEC football fans.
This is our home base. In many ways. We are
having an awesome time hanging out with you. Great weather
(00:41):
starting to kind of finally turn into spring, maybe feeling
like summer for many of you out there. And as
the summer is starting to get closer and closer, Buck,
the Democrats are turning up the heat. And what they're recognizing,
I think is abortion isn't going to be the Hail
Mary that they thought it was. It's not going to
(01:03):
save them from electoral oblivion this November. And that's because
their abortion position is so extreme, and some of you
out there are saying, hey, I'm not sure whether I'm
seeing this yet. I'm telling you what you're going to
see is the argument that is already occurring, which is,
it's not about Roe v. Wade, it's that your contraception
(01:26):
is in danger, which is a why it's that gay
people in classrooms is in danger what Joe Biden tried
to argue, which is a why they are building extremism
in because they're recognizing that most people think, hey, abortion
shouldn't be legal in the seventh, eighth or ninth month,
(01:47):
and they're trying to make Republicans seem like extremists. And
I got to give credit here. There's also an underlying
element that I think it's pretty substantial of abortions, be honest,
that's actually racist. And the eugenics movement that was much
of the basis for abortion planned parenthood back in the
(02:10):
day kind of jumped right into public view here during
testimony in the Senate with Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina,
who confronted Treasury Secretary Janet Yelling on the issue of abortion.
And if you haven't heard this audio yet, just listen.
(02:30):
This is quite the CounterPunch from Senator Tim Scott of
South Carolina. In many cases, abortions are of teenage women,
particularly low income and often black, who aren't in a
position to be able to care for children, have unexpected pregnancies,
(02:52):
and it deprives them of the ability, often to continue
their education to later participation aid in the workforce, So
there is a spillover into labor force participation, and it
means the children will grow up in poverty and do
do worse themselves. Thank you, let me let me just
(03:14):
this is the truth. I'll just simply say that, as
a guy raised by a black woman in abject poverty,
I'm thankful to be here. Good moment for Senator Scott.
They are really made the point powerfully, I think for
everybody to hear, which is that there's something really obtuse
and evil in many of the arguments that are being
made right and super racist Janet Yelling, They're like, this
(03:37):
is one of the lines that I think George W.
Bush got so right buck the soft bigotry of low expectations.
It was oozing out of her commentary there. I mean,
people should know that, and they don't. By the way.
This is not denied, This is not contended or contentious.
The founder of planned parenthood was a Margaret Sanger YEP,
(03:58):
a absolutely eugenicist, believed in eugenics, believed in limiting what
she deemed quote undesirables, and spoke to the women's auxiliary
of the Ku Klux Klan in New Jersey to generate
support for her movement. She supported the Supreme Courts nineteen
(04:21):
twenty seven decision Buck v. Bell, which allowed for the
sterilization of people who were deemed unfit without their consent.
She was a horrible human being, okay, and this is
the founder of planned parenthood. She was a vile racist.
And there's even if you if you look at even
(04:42):
on planned parenthood side, and you'll see the stuff clay
they've had to say, Yeah, okay, she was an awful eugenicist,
but she did so much to liberate women. Does anyone else,
you know, just just put this into context for a second.
Does anyone else in conversation in public discourse these these
days get that kind of Oh, but they actually did
(05:05):
something we really like, so we'll forget that other stuff. Absolutely,
you know, we're supposed to remove busts of Thomas Jefferson.
But Margaret Sang and they did your city. They did
it in New York City. That's what I'm thinking of.
And Margaret Sanger was a vile human being who believed
in destroying undesirable babies. This is reality, folks, and they
(05:29):
still celebrate her and her movement. It's pretty it's pretty
outrageous and appalling when you actually look into the history.
Speaking of which, by the way, I went to George
Washington University in Washington, DC. Buck, did you see that
they're trying to strip George Washington's name from George Washington University.
There was an editorial in the Washington Post about it,
(05:53):
which is amazing because is the Washington Post therefore calling
for the removal of the word Washington in their newspaper name.
And remember Buck, when everybody said Donald Trump was crazy
when he said they're not going to stop with Confederate statues.
If you're gonna try to tear down the statues of
Robert E. Lee or Stonewall Jackson or James Longstreet or
(06:14):
any of these Confederate generals, then eventually they're gonna come
for Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, and all the left
wing libs were like, oh, Donald Trump is so out
to lunch there. This is such a slippery slope argument.
There's no way that's going to happen. It's happened. And
speaking of slippery slope arguments, I'm telling you this is
(06:35):
what they're gonna do. Roe v. Wade not going to
argue about abortion. We're going to argue about all your
other rights that are under siege. And this is what
Mayor Pete is already trying to do. You'll listen to
cut ten here that we've got. What else is the
Supreme Court coming forward? Listen to me right now. Suburban moms,
(06:55):
suburban women. I was talking to a bunch of moms.
They are all different sorts of text chains and viral
threads about how contraceptions under danger and how now you're
not going to be able to even go out and
make birth control decisions on your own. Those are wise.
The Democrats are trying to get you riled up. You
(07:17):
need to be talking to your mom friends and telling
them this isn't true. Here's Mayor Pete trying to fan
the flames. Listen right now, The focus rightly is on
women and the right to choose. And I will say,
you know, for all of my life and all of
modern American history, I think the direction that we've been
going in as a country, the direction that the Constitution
(07:41):
has led us to in the Supreme Court, has been
one of expanding rights, has been one of expanding freedoms.
And suddenly this decision, if this is what the decision
will be, represents a retreat from them. And if this
memo turns into a decision, appears to have very little
regard for precedent. And I'm not comforted by any of
(08:02):
the reins assurances that that would not lead to other
freedoms falling. I mean, this is what you're trying to
hear because their arguments are not persuasive. So what are
they doing. They're saying things. This is what the Democrat
playbook right now is unfolding for all of us to see.
You can just watch this day by day as it goes.
(08:25):
They say things that are not true about the decision.
They try to frighten people about the implications of this.
They do this constantly. By the way they said about
citizens United, it would be unprecedented foreign cash coming into
our elections. None of that was true what they actually wanted.
Not to get too deep into Citizens United, the federal
government under the Obama administration held that they had a
(08:46):
right to ban books in advance of an election from publication,
not allowed to publish a book within sixty days or
ninety days, and that was a federal right in Citizens United,
which is crazy. That's what the Obamas of bomba solicitor
general try to advance in that argument, and the Left
just lied about it. Oh it's foreign money on this,
they're lying about it. Of course, again on a whole
(09:08):
range of issues. Their arguments are super weak. The argument
on precedent, this is just this is like arguing with
a toddler, like they just keep coming back to this
precedent isn't what they seem to You know, that word
does not mean what they seem to think it means.
It doesn't mean that you can never overturn something. It
doesn't mean that there's that starry decisis is set in stone.
And now with this clay, it's, oh man, we're not
(09:30):
getting people fired up enough over telling them that they're
gonna lose their right to abortion. We're gonna say you're
gonna lose all of these other rights to contraception. I mean,
I remember, didn't didn't someone ask Mitt Romney about whether
he wanted to ban I can think there was am
I misremembering this? Didn't Mit Romney get asked, do you
want would you ban contraception? I mean, this is what
(09:51):
there is. There is an argument that they are trying
to make buck and this to me goes to the
point that Roe v. Wade being overturned is not the
electoral strategy that's going to guarantee them success that many
are trying to argue, because what they're trying to build
on is they are saying, well, if Roe v. Wade
gets overturned, then Griswold could get overturning Griswold effectively is
(10:17):
the precedent that allowed married couples to make birth controlled decisions.
And so I think this is important and I think
this is a big conversation that moms need to be
having with other moms, the same way that I've talked
about these COVID restrictions and the incredibly deleterious impact that
it has had on children and who made that happen.
(10:38):
These are conversations that moms need to happen, need to have,
and I think Republicans need to be straightforward, transparent and
clear about this. We're not coming for your birth control,
right There's there's no anti there's no big national decades
long anti birth control, and you know for in the home,
but that doesn't even exist. Well, what are we gonna do.
(10:59):
We're gonna have like a black market for condoms. I mean,
give me a break, this is absurd. No one actually
when they're trying to sell it, and there are people
who want to sell it, and there are people who
are willing to buy it. And that is why this
word of mouth conversations that moms have, which is in
bat like if you want to know how every business
(11:19):
works buck that involves children, it's all word of mouth
and it's all mom conversations. And that's why you guys
out there listening to us right now need to nip
this argument in the bud because it is a lot. Plus,
the most effective form of birth control is free. Just
become a radical feminist. Relief factor, folks. Relief factor is
(11:40):
a product that provides a solution of people contending with
everyday pain that refuses to go away. Created by doctors
and perfected with over fifteen years of scientific research. Relief
Factor is a one hundred percent drug free product that
was made for you. It goes to the source of

Welcome back in the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show.
Our buddy David Marcus from the New York Post will
(13:04):
be joining us in a few minutes. He has been
a long time implacable foe of Fouciism. We're talking about
that and just everything going on on the political scene
right now. Some big primaries happening here. There was I
think just yesterday Nebraska primary was getting some attention. There
was also the West. There was a West Virginia Republican
(13:24):
congressman versus Republican congressman because they lost a seat in
the in the new apportionment. So there's a lot going
on the political world. Will follow up with all of
that in a couple of moments here. But first, what
does cowardice sound like? Or is it stupidity? I don't
(13:44):
know when you're talking about Beto O'Rourke, whether he's too
dumb to know or too much of a fraud to
know how silly the things he says. Maybe that's up
for debate. I can be pushed in either direction. It's
Betto too dumb or is he too dishonest? It could
go either way, but you should hear that there are
(14:06):
politicians out there right now. It's just not a hypothetical.
The state of California just passed a bill that makes
abortion all nine months of her pregnancy. If they if
they didn't want to allow for ninth month abortion, why
have that in the statute? Why not say abortion for
the first six months or three months, or whatever the
case may be. But they said all nine months of
(14:27):
a pregnancy. Beto O'Rourke, who is just I did? It's
so flimsy is the word that I always think of
when this guy comes in mind. Just there's nothing to
recommend this guy, but he seems to think he was
born for it. I should be president here. He is
telling everybody no limits to abortion at all, or won't
(14:50):
say anything about it. Why do you believe in any
limits limitations on abortion, whether it's the third trimester or
up until even the final months nine months. I think roversus,
which we should remind ourselves, is still the law of
the land today. Is the reference point that I would
look to. And the way I think I can best
(15:10):
express this is that I trust women. We should all
trust women to make their own decisions that are in
their best interests for themselves, for their healthcare, and for
their future. That's the way it's been literally my entire life.
I'm forty nine years old. Hey, can I say Beto
was the guy in college who always showed up at
the party with the guitar and was talking to every
guy's girlfriend. That's Peto. I just look, this is what
(15:34):
Republicans should be focusing on. And I can't believe the
Senate is going to vote not to codify Roe v. Wade,
but to effectively say abortion can happen all the way
up to nine months. And we heard the guy who's
supposed to be a moderate in Ohio, Tim Ryan say
on Fox News to Brett Bayer, Yeah, I support abortion
(15:55):
all the way up to the ninth month. Beto down
in Texas is saying the same thing. It's what should
happen in Georgia. To Stacy Abrahams, you want incentive to
go vote in the midterms in twenty twenty two, here's
what you can do. Among many other things, I think
you can retire Beto forever in Texas because if he
loses like he did to Ted Cruz, in the Senate
(16:17):
if he gets whipped by Greg Abbott, which I think
he's going to do, and if Stacy Abrams gets whipped
by the winner of the Republican governmentorial primary right now,
which is going to be happening in Georgia, I believe
the twenty fourth, it's coming up very soon, the week
after next. Those people are dead in terms of being
viable candidates in the states of Georgia, in Texas, and
(16:39):
they were the patron saints of the Democrat Party. But
you have to put everybody on the record when you
say that you support abortion rights. You need to be
on the record for what does that mean. Does that
mean that a day before a woman would give birth
with a huge pregnant belly, nine months of pregnancy, that
(17:00):
you are okay with an abortion taking place. That's a
murder buck okay, And I think the vast majority of
Americans believe it, particularly in the eighth and ninth month,
in that third trimester. And this is a radical proposition
that is not supported by the vast majority. And Republicans
need to get Democrats on the record for what they
(17:21):
think about ninth month abortions, because it is murder and
it isn't supported by hardly anybody, Democrat, Republican, independent, all
over the political spect It shouldn't be hard for Democrat
elected leaders to condemn an obviously monstrous practice. They will
not do it. Yep, they're they're fraid. They're fraid to
(17:43):
in any way limit abortion rights. Buck and that needs
to be a part of this twenty twenty two election cycle.
Everybody should have to go on the record. That's the
benefit of tossing everything back to the states and to
the politicians. We got a brand new sponsor here helping
many guys in the audience. Chalk is that new sponsor.

(19:21):
buck Sexton Show appreciate all of you hanging out with us.
We roll through the Wednesday edition of the program. We
are joined now by David Marcus, who has done many
things in his life, including being a theater actor. He's
also Brooklyn based columnist and author of Charade, The covid
Lies That Crushed a Nation. And David, we appreciate you
(19:45):
making the time to join the show here. But I
wanted to play this audio for you to see what
you thought of this. On Broadway, there was fury over
a mask not being worn correctly. I just want to
let you react, as a theater guy to what your
reaction would be to this. Let's play it. Put your
(20:07):
masks over your noses? Do you want me to? Because
I will your mouth protect me so that I can
perform your over your nose. That why you're in. That
is the rule. If you don't want to follow the rule,
who get out? By the way that are sitting around you.
(20:38):
This is my wife's biggest fear. I think, probably buck
if she took me to a Broadway play, that I
wouldn't be wearing my mask correctly. And I just started
getting screamed at by an actress on the stage. Uh, David.
When you hear that, your reaction is what, Yeah, it's amazing.
It is the perfect symbol of why theater is basically
dead in the United States of America, because theaters don't
(21:02):
want to put people on stage who are going to
do an entertaining show for you anymore. They want to
put people on stage to lecture you about how you
should live. Right, don't forget the cast of Hamilton lecturing
Vice President Pence. Right, Yeah, that's what this industry has become.
I spent fifteen years in the New York theater scene,
and listen, man, Hollywood's progressive, but I mean Hollywood's the
(21:25):
National Review compared to the New York theater scene, and
they've destroyed an industry, and that was just that was
just a perfect whiney, screaming example of exactly how they've
done it. By way, David, great to have you on
the show man. I live right next to you. I
walk past a Broadway theater every time I go to
(21:45):
and from my apartment, and there's a line of people outside.
There's these mask minders that have their masks on outside
mind you, who walk up and down the line. They
also do this for the Colbert Bear Show whatever, same thing.
The mask minders make sure you are masked up in
(22:05):
line outside before you go in, and then the ushers.
From what I understand, I talk to your friend who
went to a Broadway show recently that you know, if
you if you're like probably talking or being annoying things
that actually bother normal people. Now that's not the big deal.
If your mask drops down, you get one warning and
then they come over and basically say, you know, do
you want to be expelled from the theater? I mean,
(22:28):
why would anyone put themselves through? This is what I
wanted to like, how can anyone, David, the people that
are going to these theaters in New York. And there's
some other places across the country where I think this
still exists, but nowhere like Broadway. They're going to crowded
restaurants and bars before and after they sit in the
Broadway Theater without masks on. No look, none of it,
(22:48):
None of it makes any sense, of course. But again
I think it's down to an American arts community that
are just rule followers that don't even make art anymore.
They just kind of like pat people on the heads
for having the right views about you know, race and
(23:09):
gender and masks. I mean, when I started doing theater
in the nineteen nineties in New York, you know, the
last thing we were ever doing was thinking about wearing
a mask or not getting sick. We were artists, Yeah,
we were dangerous. You know, these people are about as
dangerous as Elmer's Blue David. We were just talking about
off air because Buck obviously he's in New York City Alley,
(23:30):
our producer, a lot of our staff are there, and
we're doing a one year anniversary event in New York
City soon. And are you concerned, as someone who lives
in Brooklyn that with COVID cases ticking back up with
the Biden white House talking about the mid term variant
that might suddenly cause one hundred million more cases. You
(23:50):
still got two year olds that have to wear masks
in New York. To Buck's point, you got actors and
actresses lecturing people from the stage and Broadway productions for
not wearing their masks correctly. Are you concerned as as
the summer comes to a close in the next several
months and we moved towards the fall, that insanity is
going to return its full grip of fascist power to
(24:13):
New York City, the place that you live. Oh, yeah,
of course I'm concerned. You know, it's not just the
place I live, it's the place that I love. And
you know, it's happened too many times. I mean, there
were there were too many times when you know, I'd
see Buck and I'd say, Buck, I think where I
think we turned the corner here right at Nope. So yeah,
(24:34):
I am very concerned. I will say though, that on
the basic institutional level, the freak out for the most
part is calming down. Like you know, my eleven year
old had COVID recently and a year ago in terms
of school, that would have been you know, the end
of the world. And everything show, and it's just not anymore.
(24:56):
So I do think that the people who run the
institutions and most of the New Yorkers don't want to
go back to that. But look, if our governor says
you're going back, we're going back. Man. We learned that
lesson right. It's crazy. David Marcus is a columnist for
The New York Post, author of Charade, The Covid Lies
that Crushed the Nation. David, I don't know if you
(25:17):
if you saw it or heard it, but Fauci got
an honorary doctorate at the University of Michigan. I guess
it was over this past weekend, and there was uproarious
applause for this guy, like standing ovation and and I
just there's a part of me that I'm never gonna
let this go until the truth about Fauci becomes the
(25:41):
overwhelming lore of the land, if you will, like I just,
I just refuse to let this guy, not just as
a New york A lot of people listening in cities
across the country had to deal with the lunacy as well,
but in New York it feels particularly personal. The Fauci crep. Yeah,
I mean, it absolutely does. I mean, it doesn't help
that the guys from South Brooklyn, but um, yeah, listen, listen.
(26:05):
There is a certain percentage of the American people who
went to such bizarre, crazy extremes, not leaving their apartment,
you know, washing their groceries, not touching their face, all
of these things, right, who balked completely into it, who
are never going to be psychologically capable of admitting that
(26:25):
that was a mistake, of saying, I refuse to hug
my grandmother for two years. Oops. Right, there's a lot
of people who are just never That's a big that's
a big thing to have to face, and I think
a lot of people are just not going to do it.
We already have the studies, guys, right, we have to
John Hopkins study, We have other studies. We know that
(26:47):
Florida doesn't didn't have vastly more depths than New York
and did way way better economically. The results of this
whole thing are in. There's just a bunch of Americans
who are never going to accept it. Speaking of that, David,
I'm sure a lot of people saw the Bill Gates
News where Bill Gates basically along with everybody else who's
gotten four COVID shots, feels obligated to say when he
(27:11):
tests positive, I'm so thankful for my COVID shots, because
otherwise this would be so much worse. I think most
reasonable people out there, and I split this tweet out yesterday, Buck,
if you got a shot for something four times and
you still got it, you would think, what in the
world's going on? How awful is this COVID shot? Will
(27:33):
people David ever acknowledge that much of what they have done,
whether it's masks, whether it's getting a billion COVID shots,
that they really haven't done anything to alter the risk
analysis two year olds wearing masks. The requirements in New
York have done nothing. You just mentioned the divergence between
Florida and New York and all of New York has
(27:54):
done in many blue state cities and regions have destroyed
their amy with no comparative health benefit. Yeah. Absolutely. And
another thing that Gates said this might have been the
same interview, but I believe it was in the last week,
was you know he said, well, you know, we couldn't
possibly have known at the beginning that the infection fatality
(28:16):
rate was much lower than we thought. You know, who
knew that and I believe March seventh, twenty twenty was
Donald Trump who did an interview with Sean Hannity where
he said he had a hunch that that that fatality
rate was much much lower. Why because we weren't testing
asymptomatic people who don't show any illness. Donald Trump was
(28:37):
absolutely right. That was early March twenty twenty. So this
idea that that Bill Gates with everything he has at
his disposal, didn't know this, you know, it really just
shows you what was what was going on here. Check
out charade the covid lies that crushed a nation. David Marcus, David,
great to have you all, my friend, We'll talk to
(28:58):
you soon. Than guys do well. Look, a regular listener

and she knew that and she thought it was maybe
a one hundred dollars fix. Turned out it was a
lot more than that cost to her some two thousand,
two hundred dollars in repairs. How to even plan for
(29:19):

Clay Buck Show Going strong. Next hour, our friend Vivek Ramaswamy,
author of Woke, Inc. Gonna talk to us about some
(30:46):
of his plans to be a counter revolution to the
Woke corporate revolution. He's got some very interesting strategies and
things in mind as a very sharp guy. He'll be
with us bottom of the next hour. And we also
can get into some phone calls here. Perhaps we've got
a lot of lines. Let a lot of people want
to weigh in, and we always appreciate hearing from all
(31:07):
of you. Also, you can send us emails too. You
go to clanbuck dot com and you can subscribe. We've
got special content up there, behind the scenes videos and
you can send us vip emails and all kinds of
good stuff. Go to clanbuck dot com for all of that.
Clay you told me about this one, so I had
to watch this. I didn't know this was a thing
(31:28):
until you explained to this to me. But do you
know there's a couple and let's just be clear, we're
having fun with this one. It's not a big deal, right,
because that's the one thing lives whenever you trying to
make fun of something, What is it such a big
deal to you? It's not a big deal, But it's
kind of funny. A couple decided whose last name to use,
the man's or the woman's last name, so he would
(31:52):
take her last name if he lost, based on calling
a coin flip at the altar. Now, I've got to
say the things that we would know about them, Clay
based on this. Without it, I didn't even realize which
who actually won, and so if he took her name.
But we're talking about people who definitely are also upset
(32:14):
about the high price of vegan milk and probably announced
their pronouns. There is one hundred percent certainty in my
mind the guy who was willing to risk his last
name at a wedding make it clear here he was
going to take the girl's name over a coin flip
at his wedding. One voted for Joe Biden, and I
(32:39):
just buck, you're not married yet. I can't even imagine
as a man, risking your last name over a coin
flip and taking the girl's name. Now, look, if you're
both adults, and you've been working for a long time,
and the woman wants to keep her own last name
because she doesn't want to go through the trouble. I
(33:00):
understand that aspect, right, But me giving up my name
and taking her name, I can't even conceive of the
idea we had. We used to have a conversation on
the show because there was like a house that burned
down and a girl who was living there had thirteen
pet snakes. And my argument at the time Buck was
(33:21):
there's no girl on the planet who was good looking
enough that if she had thirteen pet snakes I would
date her, because I think she's got to be crazy
if she has thirteen pet snakes. I don't think there
is a wee. I've been married almost any years. One
is one pet snake too many pets, too many for me.
I would not I would not get a girl with
a pet snake here, if she's kying in the sand.
(33:41):
I'm sorry for the pet snake owners out there, but
we're talking about dating here. You're you're wake single girl
with a pet snake. I'm not getting anywhere near it.
Single girl with thirteen pet snakes. First of all, I
wouldn't be able to sleep in that place because the
snakes always get out of their cages. Buck, you're a
single guy still, and you imagine if a girl you
(34:02):
were dating was like, Hey, I'm happy to spend the
rest of my life with you, but at our marriage ceremony,
we have to have a coin flip to see whether
you take my last name or not. I just I
can't imagine the man who agrees to well, no, but
it's it's you gotta think about the upside, though, Clay,
because when you're the man who takes your wife's last name,
at least you know that when some guy bumps into
(34:24):
you in a bar, she's gonna be the one that
actually throws down, you know. So that's the good news
is that you'll say, my wife wants to have a
word with you, you ruffian. I can't imagine that there's
even very many women who would want to date a
man who was willing to do that. I've got three sons.
I would be there's a few things that my boys
(34:44):
could do if if they were getting married, they said, oh,
by the way, dad, we're gonna have a coin flip
at the ceremony to see whether I give up our
last name to take hers. I'd be like, yeah, we're
this is a no go. Yeah, I'd talk here. Yeah,
this is not sept I gotta say there there are Look,
you will come across. I'll just tell you, you know,
(35:06):
if you if if I put this out there, because
you're married, you can make these jokes name well. But
if I put out some joke about this, all of
these blue check females would all of a sudden be like, sorry,
some of us actually want to be dating a male feminist,
like there are people out there for whom a guy.
And now when I say people there are women for
(35:26):
whom a guy, and all of our all of our
listeners all across the country, who are women, are like,
you gotta be kidding me, But it's true. Who think
that it is? It's really sexy when a guy announces
his pronounced and it's like, I think, honestly, hyphenated names
are baseline for how we could have real equality going
forward in this relationship. So I'm just putting it out there.
(35:47):
I would not. I would, uh, Look, if you want
to keep your own name, that's fine, coin flip for
me to take your name. I I like, I can't
think of a faster way, you should run for the
hills if that conversation ever comes up. In my opinion,
and this went viral on TikTok, I feel like this
may turn into one of those one of those things
(36:08):
that becomes a trend because people seeing it on video now,
so there may be more of this. But if you
recall there was also those gender reveal parties. Oh, those
things are taken over? Which are they? Is that still
really happening because there were some where people like burned
down a national park because they had a gender reveal
party and there was pyrotechnics involved and that was the
(36:28):
thing that happened. Yeah, And also they always assume there's
two genders. The left gets very where's that gender? Very transphobic.
In fact, lots of people out there who are huge
trans advocates are actually selling the idea. Buck. Have you
seen this that the doctor gets it wrong when he
says whether a boy or girl is born. It's not
(36:50):
going to bet on the doctors getting it right. Yeah,
he thought he saw what he saw, but that's not
what he saw. He saw something else. And apparently your
fourth grade teacher is gonna explain that, or the kindergarten
teacher is gonna explain that to the kids. We got
a lot coming up here, folks, in just a moment.
Like I said our friend Vivek Ramaswamy, we'll talk to him.
By deministration and disarray. Things looking rougher and rougher with
(37:14):
the ward Ukraine. We'll talk about it all in more
