Speaker 1 (00:00):
Third hour of Clay and Buck underway right now, We've
got so much to dive into. We've got the latest
numbers in on the election that is underway. It is
really no longer election day. I think we all have
to just understand and shift our mindset toward this. It's
election month in some places, certainly election weeks. So it's
(00:25):
happening right now. I cast my vote yesterday Miami Beach.
Saw all of my tanned, happy and you know, sandal
clad neighbors all lined up. I will tell you, Clay,
I promise you true story. A rather I believe, we
would say Jack fellow in front of me in a
(00:46):
tank top who looked like he could probably put up
I mean he could probably put up Clay Travis numbers
like four hundred and fifty on the bench. He was
very large, very large fellow. And a woman on the
way in with a sign says are you going to
She had like a kamala And this is like outside
the zone where you're allowed you know, outside the zone
feed or whatever it is, where you're allowed to try
(01:09):
to get So there were a few people outside the
zone who were making their last pitch or whatever. Fine,
but this woman goes, are you gonna vote for Kamala?
Or she goes, are you voting for Kamala Harris, Like
they're having a little, like a little quiet, private secret
moment together, and he goes absolutely not, like, yes, Miami Beach,
Yes the jacked bro is not voting for Kamala Harris.
(01:33):
I could have told you that before he responded, I've
got a good question for you. We can have a
little bit of fun here and then we'll get into
the news. If you could only pick one thing to
know about a person that would guarantee that they are
going to vote either for Kamala or for Trump. This
is not something about their identity, but something that they do,
(01:55):
a habit, a activity. Mine would be, well, you tell me,
are there things that come to mind immediately? For you?
You'd be like Trump, guy, Kamala, person like whatever. I think.
I can talk to somebody about guns for thirty seconds
and with a ninety nine percent accuracy know who they're
voting for. I would say, if you can bench press
(02:18):
two hundred and twenty five pounds, you almost certainly are
voting for Trump. Like if you only allowed men who
could bench press, for those of you out there, whoever
get on a bench. If you could, that's two forty
five plates on either side without even talking to them
at all. If you only allowed men who bench pressed
(02:40):
to twenty five to vote, I think it would be
like ninety ten Trump. That would be mine. If you
just like strong, like to your point when you were saying,
like the guy's kind of big and ripped. Ripped guys
believe in individ This is my theory on it. Super
Ripped guys believe in individual responsibility. They're willing to work card,
they show up every day and they put in effort.
(03:03):
They are more likely to be individualist and to be
Trump supporters. I believe if I were having to pick,
like just an activity that somebody does, the other one
would be if you are if you are like a biker.
I feel like bikers would not know like a motorcycle
(03:26):
what cyclists or motorcycle because we're very different. Cyclist I
feel like I'm gett I'm trying to pick an activity.
If you are a cyclist, I feel like you are
a Kamala voter. Oh if you're if well, here's the thing.
It's funny because if I if I could call somebody
a biker and know that they wear leather jackets and
(03:47):
have tattooed Trump Trump all the voters. Motorcyclist, all those
people are Trump. But like I but I was gonna say,
if you're talking cyclist who wears the like neoprens z thing, yes,
ninety Commala voters, guys and girls, ninety percent Commala voters.
I don't know why it is, but it is. Do
(04:07):
you agree with? That would be my like if you
had to pick something that somebody does, bicyclist, like meaning
like what Buck said, like you wear the neoprene like
you're out versus weightlifting. I feel like there are other things, right,
like if you're trans, I think you're probably voting Kamala
right in general, Yes, but I'm talking about like activities
that people do. That would be weightlifting and bikeling. Bicycling
(04:31):
would be two things where I'd be like, I feel
like I know how you vote. I will say that
Miami Beach here has historically has had a substantial gay
gay population. All of all of my gay friends in
Miami Beach voting Trump. I actually I'm just saying now
maybe that's because they're my friends, but all of my
gay friends in Miami Beach are voting Trump. I don't
think gay is as much of a proxy for how
(04:53):
you vote in a presidential election now, No, I don't
think it is at all. I'm just saying years ago, anecdote, anecdotally. Yeah,
there's a strong I think there's a strong contingent of
well within the sort of LGBTQ community, among gay men.
I think there's going to be a surprising number of
Trump voters compared to what the Republican norms are. Okay,
(05:16):
speaking of Republican voters, we teased as we went to break,
I just shared this on Twitter. It's kind of a
weird thing. As you said, we don't have election Day anymore.
We have election season. And so in Florida, huge state population,
early voting is underway and every day they release different
(05:39):
outcomes from the early voting. This came down twenty seven
minutes ago. Republicans are getting fifty four percent of the
early vote. Democrats are getting twenty eight percent. This is
in person early voting. Republicans have opened up already a
(06:01):
one hundred and sixty thousand person lead, and an in
person early voting they're winning by twenty six points. Now,
I think this is interesting primarily as a method to
analyze enthusiasm. There are certainly male in ballots that are
out there that will favor Democrats. I think they've already
(06:21):
started to count those. But I take this as a
very good sign. There are lots of excited Trump voters
who want to get out, get their votes in, and
this is I take it a really good sign. The
other bit of Newsbuck that we teased Trump on Friday,
(06:43):
according to Politico, is going to do the Joe Rogan podcast,
which is right now, I believe the biggest podcast essentially
in America. Rogan only releases his show via podcast. I'm
cure ever done the show? You haven't done the show? Buck,
Good move, bad move in your mind for Trump to
(07:05):
do Rogan. This podcast reportedly taping in Austin on Friday.
Nothing nothing but upside. I think for Trump this is
his milieu. Two guys sitting down talking. I mean, this
is what's funny is that Trump almost does a Rogan
style interview when he's talking to sixty minutes. You know,
(07:25):
he just he's always in the element of Trump's world.
I mean, you and I have said this, We've dealt
with this ourselves, Like when you're interviewing Trump a lot
of times unless you're just going to be rude and
try to talk over him or something, and especially when
he's the sitting president, that's particularly rude. But you just
got to kind of let Trump do his Trump thing.
I mean, he's going to answer the questions exactly how
he wants and he's going to speak how you know.
(07:47):
He'll let you know when it's time for you to
come in with another question. You may have to wait
a few minutes. But he's very conversational and very you know,
laid back. I think you can say in a lot
of the stylists sick aspects of an interview, and so
with Rogan, yeah, I mean, you know, he's going to
be sitting there'll probably he'll be in his suit with
his red tie, but he'll be sitting there and they'll
(08:08):
have a lot of fun. And Trump will say some
things that you and I and everyone listening finds highly amusing.
And there will be Mika on Morning Joe as soon
as it comes out, like did you did you hear
what he said about the Oh my gosh, you know,
and all there'll be the pearl clutching going on among
Democrats who get paid too much money to say stupid
things on TV. And I think that Rogan's audience does
(08:31):
cross over into people who are not particularly political but
maybe voting. And when you start to look at what's
that last two percent of it's not just the undecided, right,
there's undecided. There's also like, am I even going to
show up? I think, Rogan, you know how many people
listen to us in the radio that don't plan on voting?
(08:52):
I think the answer is infinitesimal, right, I mean there's
probably a few we could we could take two or
three calls now, like I'm not going to vote, okay,
but ninety nine percent of our audience is going to
you know that are US citizens are going to vote.
We do have some foreigners who listen, which is great,
But Rogan's audience, I think there's a good chunk, especially
of younger men who are probably independent affiliation, who it
(09:15):
could work. And it's not gonna work like it's going
to give a million votes to Donald Trump, But could
it be a few thousand here or there in a
state like Arizona or state like Michigan, et cetera. I
think yes, I think it could be a little helpful.
I think it's smart because what it does is rebut
almost pre butt the closing argument of Kamala Harris that
(09:37):
Trump is Hitler and a unique threat to American democracy.
And that's why I thought the McDonald's stunt was so
funny and also so perfect. Same thing with the Al
Smith dinner, making jokes, having fun, wearing a McDonald's apron
and serving French fries and learning how to make them,
all these things. I think the Rogan Show will just
(09:59):
see fun, and I think Trump will be good in
that setting. Here's a question for you, Buck, what would
you Let's pretend that you were Kamala Harris's top advisor.
You are seeing all these trend lines that Trump supporting
Republicans and moderates. Some are showing up and supporting Trump
(10:22):
in high numbers early voting turnout in North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Nevada, Arizona,
those places where you can see it by a Republican
or Democrat, it's looking pretty good. I should take Georgia
out because I don't think they do it by Republican
or Democrat. What could Kamala Harris do right now? Given
(10:43):
that we are fourteen days out from the election to
change anything that's going on right now. I don't have
any answer the candidate that people are voting on now
when it comes to Kamala as a candidate that you
will be an election day, which I think I would
probably that's really true of anyone at this stage. But
I'm just saying, but is there a media outlet, like
if you were trying to give her advice, what could
(11:05):
she know? I think at this point it's it's irrelevant.
And what I mean is Clay, Yeah, obviously it's the
same person now as the will be in two weeks.
But I'm saying there aren't there. There aren't even tweaks
that they can make to the dial to try to
get a different perception outcome of Kamala. I think they've
actually exhausted some of the addressable audience for Kamala with
(11:26):
the switches that they've made and with the inconsistency. Do
you know what I mean? You know, you can't go
from telling me someone's not doing media so they're doing
a media blitz. So they're not doing media again because
they're so great. Oh no, they're not. Wait hold on,
you can't tell me they're change from Biden, but then
they say that they wouldn't do anything differently than Biden.
But then they say they're still going to change somehow,
like there's been too much cognitive dissonance with the Kamala campaign.
(11:53):
And that also makes perfect sense because Clay, she's been
the what has it been three months or something? I
mean I haven't really counted up the days. How long
has she even been to candidate? It's been, you know,
July twenty first she got elevated. Yeah, right, August September. Yeah,
it's been three months. She's run a three month long campaign.
Of course, this shouldn't work. I mean, if it does work,
(12:14):
Republicans are gonna have to do a lot of soul searching.
But we're not gonna go there. We're not gonna go there.
When we come back, we'll continue to break down more
of this. Take some of your calls. But if you're
out there right now, what do you got Wait? Can
I just throw something to you real quick? Yes? Right,
right wing cyclists with their kneaprene suits on like they're
(12:35):
scubaing on the side of the road, blocking our cars
from going normal speed, dressed like teletubbies, they are lighting
us up. Right now, I'm just let lighting men cyclists
are huge Trump people. I'm getting people that are. I
told them to call it. I'm getting them saying, you're
that's not true. Cyclists. We all agree on the bikers,
(12:56):
and the bikers are like, that's right. They all know, right,
we get that. But yeah, there are team all the way.
But cyclists. And I'm talking. I don't just mean you
ride a bike on the weekends in the town. That's
not a cyclist. I mean the people you all know what,
You've all seen them. They've got the weird handles turned around,
they've got the aerodynamic helmet on, and it's a very
(13:16):
tight clothing, and you think maybe they're French, Like, that's
a cyclist. They're claiming that they're big Trump people. Some
of them are. Some of them I want to hear.
I want them to make this case to the masses
because I'm not buying it. Hey, I'm open to being wrong.
I'm not claiming to begin too. I hope I'm a
genius when it comes to the cycling community, What then,
personality trait would you point to? I don't mean what
(13:40):
you are, right, like you're born white, black, male, female,
like whatever. I mean something that you do as a
hobby advocation that would you would see it and be
like that person is voting Trump or Kamala. I think
most people agree with me, like weightlifters Trump guys, truck
drivers Trump guys, and there's always exceptions, but but motorcycle guys,
(14:04):
boat guys all Trump guys. What would a Kamala person do?
I thought cycling would be one maybe, I mean the
careers we definitely know. But you're talking about hobbies. We'll
get into this morning. How do you got uh, Well,
one thing we know is maybe it'd be a low
testosterone thing that a Kamala voter would do. I gave
(14:24):
you the data. By the way, twenty eight percent of
men in Georgia are voting for Kamala. Twenty eight percent,
seventy thirty basically saying, yeah, I'm on the Trump team.
I bet the seventy percent has infinitely higher testosterone than
the twenty eight percent. And if you don't have the
energy that you used to have, do you know that
(14:46):
by taking chalk you can increase your testosterone levels by
twenty percent within three months. Testosterone linked directly to energy.

Clay Travison buck Sexton mic drops that never sounded so good.
Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you
get your podcasts. Welcome back in Clay Travis Bucks Sexton Show.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
We're having some fun. What hobby would you hear someone
had and immediately say, oh, that person is voting for Kamala.
I'm just getting inundated by cyclist right now. I still
think cycling and again not motorcycling, just like you're on
your bike and you're like, what is neoprene? Right, that's
(16:18):
what it is, right, like the cycling outfit. I don't
think of those people as huge Trump people. Maybe I'm wrong.
I was gonna say bird watching, and Buck just was like, no,
there's tons of bird watchers who are huge Trump people.
You had. I'm trying to think through what would I
hear that you did as a hobby, and I would
be like, Oh, you are definitely a Kamala voter. You've
(16:41):
got one. Oh, I think padel down here, which is
a fan like this fancy version of racquetball that's becoming popular,
at least in South Florida. I don't know if anyone
plays this anywhere else. I think I think Democrats. What
about Peloton, Oh, I think Peloton is. I was gonna
say cipelling again, like I think if you're on the cycle,
(17:01):
not the motorcycle, I tend to. I mean, I guess
that maybe cannot steroids, which is another way to be
on the cycle. You were saying Adele, I went and
saw Adele padell Adele the single Well, I thought you
said Adele the singer. No, I don't even know what
Padell is.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
The factiv.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Maybe makes you a cobble of voter. I never even
heard of Padel. I thought you said Adell the scene
I was gonna say. I went to go see her
in Vegas with Laura. What is the breakdown? What is
the breakdown of voting aged women who like Taylor Swift?
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Is it for Democrats? Though you think it's super high Democrat,
there's I think it's super high everybody. I think it's
like eighty twenty women like Taylor Swift. No, no, no,
I'm saying in terms of the Taylor Swift voting age audience,
are they overwhelmingly Democrats or is it fifty to fifty?
I think it's probably like sixty five to thirty five.
Democrat would be my bet. Oh we're gonna start into this.
(18:00):
We got the cyclists are coming for us right now. Well,
I'll leays speak to the gun owners in the audience,
A lot of you out there, thankfully, that's always room
to improve your aim. Look, I needed my MANTISX. I
used it, but I needed to use it for about
another week before I got out to the range. Those
you have seen we put it on social media. I
had a little shooting the plate's thing, and I'm so
(18:20):
close to running the cycle and then I ran out,
and it was said, mantis X will prevent these moments
at the gun range for you, my friends. You will
be so dialed in. Yes, I was slapping the trigger
back a little too hard. Yes I was rushing. You
know what, It prevented me from doing that. Mantis x.
This is a dry fire training system you can work
with at home. High tech, easy to set up, easy
(18:41):
to use, makes your shooting better. Amazing technology for your
shooting at an affordable price. Go to mantisx dot com
to get your training system in place today. Don't be
like me and not do it enough mantisx dot com
You'll be deadI at the range hobbies that differentiator, that
are differentiated political affiliation. Let's see who we've got talkbacks,
(19:04):
We've got calls, let me see hold on VIP email
from Mike. I'll start with this one, Clay, Hey, guys,
definitely ultimate Frisbee. I've been playing for twenty five years.
I'm now fifty seven, and the sport is loaded with
leftist That's a great call. I would great at Frisbee's sport.
I wouldn't really have thought about it very much. But
(19:25):
that is interesting. I'm not trying to cast aspersions. I
don't need the ultimate Frisbee community come after me, but
there is something of an association with the smoking of
certain substances and the playing of Ultimate Frisbee on college campuses.
I knew the frisbee guys a lot of hemp. They
wore a lot of hemp. Also ponytails. I would say,
(19:46):
if you're a man with a ponytail, maybe also a
man bun, you are more likely to vote Kamala than
a man with a normal haircut. Does that makes sense?
Like if you have a ponytail, not a woman. If
you are a man with a ponytail, you are more
likely to vote Kamala than a man with like a
traditional haircut. Are ponytail guys are now going to be furious?
(20:08):
But I mean, like, ponytail guys are gonna come for
you right now. I'm just listening. There's not that many
ponytail guys. If I see a guy with a ponytail,
I'm not like, you know that guy is a huge
Trump supporter. I think it was more early nineties. I
feel like ponytails had a little bit more of a moment.
You know, people are going for it, just like them
with the grunge scene. The goateee became much more of
(20:29):
a thing like bearded men. Yes, I remember the goatee,
but bearded men, not men with beards. Some might say
that there could be somebody on the ticket with one.
I'm talking about bearded men. I think we're more likely
to vote Trump, right, Like if I just if you
only told me, like, hey, what is a male characteristic
(20:53):
that you could point to that would vote Trump? I
would say a beard would be a good guess for men,
an actual facial beer or not a woman. I also
think to Trump wins, he should grow a beard. It
would be epic. But that's there's a there's a meme
of Trump with a beard. I think it would be
incredible if Trump grew a Yeah, let's take some of
these cyclist callers here, Steve and Santa Barbara, a lovely
(21:14):
part of the country. What's up Steve? Hey, guys, Hey, yeah,
you called us? What am I wrong on the cyclist front?
Speaker 4 (21:25):
Partially wrong? On first off, it's not neapremuscra, and there's
numerous reasons to wear the craft. But I would say,
in the old days, there's probably ten percent conservative cyclist
and that might have creeped up to forty percent now
I remember, Well.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
That's quite a big move. But you would if you
had to stake your life on it. And because I
know a lot of people out there respond anytime you
talk about general groups by saying I am ex and
I do why, that doesn't mean the group is wrong. Right, So,
like women are going to vote for Kamala according to
(22:02):
the data, and men are going to vote for Trump,
that doesn't mean that some men aren't voting Kamala or
some women aren't voting Trump. Your individual choice doesn't eliminate
the overall statistical reality. In other words, your anecdote doesn't
eliminate the rule. So would you agree with me that
bicyclist in general, as a cyclist yourself, would vote Kamala
(22:27):
over Trump.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I would partially agree with you. I think that titles turning.
I think Democrats has screwed up so royally that even
a diehard Democrat has to look at what they've done
in saying people are idiot.
Speaker 5 (22:39):
That's issue. That's the way I see it.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Yeah, I have to agree with you that I would
say so but it's turning.
Speaker 6 (22:45):
It's turning.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
And all right, well, I hope more of your lycra
clad brothers and sisters in the cycling world will vote
Trump in this cycle. That would be fantastic. Lou and
Sarasota another cyclist for Trump. Here a fellow Floridian. What's up,
Lou play.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Bud, Good afternoon. Thank you for taking my call. I
appreciate it. Hey or to see guys. Uh So, Yes,
I'm start so, I'm I'm a likero wearing guy. I
also like ars, shotguns, football. Uh So. I will say this,
since we moved here about two years ago, two and
a half years ago, there's a fair amount of contendency
(23:23):
of people that do like Trump or ride bicycles. But
I also think it's geographical because when we lived in Baltimore,
it was very hard to find anybody that was conservative
in the group that we wrote with, which were hundreds
of people.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Right, Well, you're gonna find that with any hobby, right
So we're trying to assess nationally what the what the
political breakdown of some of these hobbies would be. And
by the way, I'm open, I think this is super
fascinating stuff. I'm open to somebody hitting me with and
me being like, you know what, that's genius. I think
you're definitely right. Again, I went weightlifting. You tend to
vote for Trump and bicycling, I would think you tend
(23:59):
to vote for I'm trying not to pick something that
would overwhelmingly be one gender or another. Right, So there
are certain things like that men do more than women,
and so I do need to get a sense of
your judgment here. What is worse to you people who
use leaf blowers before nine o'clock in the morning or
(24:22):
drivers who encroach on the cyclist lane.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
I would say drivers, because leaf blowers should be able
to get up at eight o'clock and more than do
their work.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Oh man, he's pro leaf blowing early morning. We got
a leaf blower who called in. Do we have the
leaf blower who left me a message? Because I think, yeah,
we got to talk back on a leaf blower. For
those of you out there, I'm trying to make the
world more civilized. Leaf blowing should only exist from nine
am in the morning to nine pm at night. It
gives you twelve hours. That's plenty of time to blow
(24:55):
leaves all over the place with your with your Heart's content.
Here is one of our guys from Say Antonio.
Speaker 7 (25:01):
Hey Clay, this is Ben San Antonio landscape for Ben,
and I gotta say, if I was servicing in your area,
I definitely start at seven, maybe even six thirty, just
control you. I think it would be hilarious anyway. I
supported everything else, but this gotta get done. I'm not
(25:21):
gonna be working at night vision goggles. Have a great day,
go Trump.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I did think that my night vision goggles suggestion was
creative one. That's a good one. I'm telling you. I
think the landscapers near me are intentionally starting their leaf
blowers now faster than they otherwise would. I think they've
got it out for me. And I didn't know that
I had angered such a large community. If we got
leaf blowing, flutist bike riders, I'm in trouble. If there's
(25:46):
somebody that overlaps with all three of those, then well, So,
while we're on the subject, kind of do people mow
their lawns too much? Like what's wrong with the grass
getting a little bit longer? I feel like I live
with a tyranny of lawnmower noise everywhere I go all
the time. I'm outside of New York City where no
one has lawns. But I'm always hearing lawns being mode
is Miami. It always is growing in Miami. You don't
(26:09):
have an off season, right you have to cut the
grass all year round. We may have we may have
just solved this puzzle. Thank you for that, But yes,
I mean freaking lawnmowers. I mean, I think in Miami
you would have to cut your grass basically all year round.
I'm sure it grows a little bit slower in the winter,
but you just have to move to a part of
the country where you get like five months off VIPs
lighting us up here, Darlene, You guys are way off
(26:31):
base about cyclists. They wear lycra, not neopreneus. Okay, you
know what islastic is. Yeah, break my synthetics are a
little bit off. Look, it's the good news is that
it still looks like a teletubby. Either way, most cyclists
in our area are fireman, police officers, and real men.
They vote Republican. One's no one said cycling is a
(26:54):
you know, Lance Armstrong is a superstar. We're just trying
to see if there is a political affiliation and that
goes along with some of these things we didn't mention this.
Probably the easiest one is or like the biggest disparity
that you would see if you were to chart this out.
I think if you're a hunter, there's an above a
ninety percent chance you vote for very high. I think
(27:15):
it's probably ninety ninety five percent chance if you are
an active and avid hunter you vote for Donald Trump.
I think if you go to the gun range, it's
probably eighty percent seventy eighty percent you vote for Donald Trump.
So it's also very high. Maybe it's as high as hunting.
So we're trying to think of some of the other
activities all I think would be very high on the
(27:36):
Trump team. Our friend Nick Adams says, if you're a
Taylor Swift fan, you tend to vote. I said, I
thought it would be sixty five thirty five that Taylor
Swift people would vote Kamala. I think that's probably true,
although that's partly again a function of the fact that
Taylor Swift's fan base is overwhelmingly female. I think that
plays in there as well, So you don't think she
(27:58):
necessarily skews left among females. It's just she has such
a huge female audience, and they skew Democrat to begin
That's kind of what I thought like. I would guess
there are a lot of you know, uh right leading
twenty twenty to twenty you know, nine year old girls
in the Nashville area who love Taylor Swift, but they
don't love her politics necessarily. That would be my guest.
(28:18):
I think that's true. I love this by and I
would love to see the data if anybody's got data
on hobbies as a function of political voting. Uh, this
you've seen fascinating to me. You've seen the the in
terms of career or employment. The data is fascinating, and
there are very few professions that skew heavily right wing.
(28:39):
But there are and very few organizations, companies or you know,
or entities, I should say. You know, what you see
is that the things that still remain dominated by Again
we all understand dominated doesn't mean there aren't other people
that you know, have our Democrats that are in the
mix too, but that are overwhelmingly Republican, the marine corps
(29:00):
or police, firemen, general contractors, small business owners. Overall, I
think it's like sixty forty or six you know, tend
to be enemy yeah, you know, it's not like overwhelming.
But when you get on the Democrats side of things,
like ninety five percent of psychiatrists or Democrats ninety nine
(29:23):
percent of Google employees, or Democrats university as university professors
ninety seven percent of them or something like that, or Democrats,
I mean they have these total areas of professional dominance,
which is, you know, unfortunate for the country. By the way,
Union's overwhelmingly Democrat as well. Andrew, By the way, in Ashville, Andrew,
(29:44):
first of all, before we get into your criticism, how
are things in Ashville? Is the waterback power house the
situation for you?
Speaker 6 (29:53):
The water's back power is back in certain areas, but
I mean, overall, it's it's going on. R can't complain, thankfully,
my family we pulled true.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
All right, you just cut your pony tail off. I said,
if you had to go Beard Trump voter, ponytail mail
Kamala voter, do you want to fire back on behalf
of formerly ponytailed men.
Speaker 6 (30:23):
Well, I mean I can't. I can't say that all
ponytail men will vote for Trump. But I definitely voted
for Trump and will vote for Trump. I'm more along
the lines of a moderate independent. I go for the
policies and all that, so.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
I get.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
But if you had, let's say that you were the
president of the Ponytailed Men of Asheville Association, and you
had everybody show up so you guys could play flutes
and ride bikes together, don't you feel don't you feel
like the vast majority of the ponytailed men of America,
when they took a break from playing flutes riding bikes,
would be voting for Kamala.
Speaker 6 (31:03):
I don't know, I can't. I can't say that. Honestly,
I guess it. I guess it just fans, you know.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Uh, nobody puts nobody puts ponytail in a corner. Clay,
all right, you're not. By the way, thank you for
calling in. I'm glad that things are getting good enough
in Asheville for him to be fired up about my
take on ponytails. Uh to uh to be calling. I'm
just saying, can you think of something again, not that
is identity laden other than a ponytail where you would
(31:30):
be like that guy's voting for Kamala. I can't ponytail guy.
I think this is a minor thing. But I have
come across this, Uh, maybe just because we work in media.
If you wear glasses as a fashion accessory, not because
you need them to see, like prescription glasses, you're voting democrats,
like I've never been. Mark Cuban now looks like Rachel Maddow.
(31:52):
Like not if you wear glasses. If you wear glasses
that you don't need for vision purposes, like to hell,
you see. I think there's a very high it's a
fashion accessory. At that point, you like the way they
look on you, I think you're a democrat. Like Mark
Cuban's new glasses. That's because he's gone full democrat. I
think Elon Musk said that he's now indistinguishable from Rachel Maddow,
(32:13):
which when you do put them side by side, it
is really funny how similar Mark Cuban and Rachel Maddow look.
I will say that, all right, pony, we'll take some
more of your calls, cut your ponytails off. But I
want to tell everybody out there to get signed up

Closing up shop here on Clay and Buck for the day,
and we are deluge. The skies have opened up. The
hail is hitting us like the size of golf balls
here with all of your emails and talkbacks and everything
on some of the fun we're having. Look, we spent
the first two hours talking about the election and where
we are today. If you missed any of that, please
(33:54):
go back listen on the Clay and Buck app. The
podcast is available for you along with great talents like
Sean Parnell, Carol Markwitz, Lisa Booth, Tutor Dixon. So they're
all on the klan Buck Network. But we did everything
you need to know about the election today. We talked
about now we're talking about silliness. Jay in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Jay,
you I have to say you may have actually the
(34:16):
best answer and the the clearest insight on this conundrum
of all go ahead.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Absolutely, anyone who wears a mask nowadays is definitely voting
for Kamala, no question.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
I think that may be.
Speaker 5 (34:32):
Jay.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
I think you get the prize if there was one.
I wish we had a prize. Sorry, but we do
get to have you talk to everybody across the country.
Clay ninety nine point nine percent accuracy. I mean that's
more accuracy than like most home pregnancy tests, you know
what I mean, Like do you have a mask on
at this point, you're voting Kamala. It's that is a
great point. I would be stunned if there is a
(34:54):
Trump wearing Trump voting mask wearer anywhere in the country
right now. I mean, I mean, honestly, I would just
be like, how is this possible? And I'm not talking
like somebody might be going through chemotherapy, right You're so
incredibly simp's talking about if if you're a lumberjack and
you don't want to inhale sawdust for your job, We're
talking to talk about you're on an airplane and you
(35:18):
are sitting there in a mask, you are one hundred
percent voting for Kamala. We've also got an I've got
interested with Gerald in Daytona Beach, a Floridian. What's going on? Gerald?
Speaker 5 (35:29):
Hey, this is the Daytona Beach nine and sunny down
here after the hurricanes. But last week was Mike Toberfast,
which is four days a motorcycles and ponytails, and I
wore my Trump hat. By the way, first day of
early voting was here yesterday and I went. But I
kind of did a survey. Well, I was walking down
Main Street, which had five hundred thousand bikers. One person,
(35:53):
one person I found that would vote for Kamala Harris.
Everybody else love the Trump hat and would vote. We're
all boot collar workers and that's that we bought our bike.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Thank you for the call. Now I would say, riding
a motorcycle cancels out the ponytail, Well, now I was gone.
If you're a biker and you have a ponytail, it's
like if you were a Viking in the eight hundreds
and you have a ponytail. Different situation, different situations, different
situation than ponytail, ultimate frisbee or ponytail like weed smoker,
(36:26):
you know, build from the office and accounting. We're talking
about if you walk around wearing birkenstocks with a ponytail, right,
that's a little different. Man bun might be a better
way to describe it.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
Now.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
I don't even know if man buns are still a thing.
They work were for a while. What about Samuraiz, You
know what I mean.
Third hour of Clay and Buck underway right now, We've
got so much to dive into. We've got the latest
numbers in on the election that is underway. It is
really no longer election day. I think we all have
to just understand and shift our mindset toward this. It's
election month in some places, certainly election weeks. So it's
(00:25):
happening right now. I cast my vote yesterday Miami Beach.
Saw all of my tanned, happy and you know, sandal
clad neighbors all lined up. I will tell you, Clay,
I promise you true story. A rather I believe, we
would say Jack fellow in front of me in a
(00:46):
tank top who looked like he could probably put up
I mean he could probably put up Clay Travis numbers
like four hundred and fifty on the bench. He was
very large, very large fellow. And a woman on the
way in with a sign says are you going to
She had like a kamala And this is like outside
the zone where you're allowed you know, outside the zone
feed or whatever it is, where you're allowed to try
(01:09):
to get So there were a few people outside the
zone who were making their last pitch or whatever. Fine,
but this woman goes, are you gonna vote for Kamala?
Or she goes, are you voting for Kamala Harris, Like
they're having a little, like a little quiet, private secret
moment together, and he goes absolutely not, like, yes, Miami Beach,
Yes the jacked bro is not voting for Kamala Harris.
(01:33):
I could have told you that before he responded, I've
got a good question for you. We can have a
little bit of fun here and then we'll get into
the news. If you could only pick one thing to
know about a person that would guarantee that they are
going to vote either for Kamala or for Trump. This
is not something about their identity, but something that they do,
(01:55):
a habit, a activity. Mine would be, well, you tell me,
are there things that come to mind immediately? For you?
You'd be like Trump, guy, Kamala, person like whatever. I think.
I can talk to somebody about guns for thirty seconds
and with a ninety nine percent accuracy know who they're
voting for. I would say, if you can bench press
(02:18):
two hundred and twenty five pounds, you almost certainly are
voting for Trump. Like if you only allowed men who
could bench press, for those of you out there, whoever
get on a bench. If you could, that's two forty
five plates on either side without even talking to them
at all. If you only allowed men who bench pressed
(02:40):
to twenty five to vote, I think it would be
like ninety ten Trump. That would be mine. If you
just like strong, like to your point when you were saying,
like the guy's kind of big and ripped. Ripped guys
believe in individ This is my theory on it. Super
Ripped guys believe in individual responsibility. They're willing to work card,
they show up every day and they put in effort.
(03:03):
They are more likely to be individualist and to be
Trump supporters. I believe if I were having to pick,
like just an activity that somebody does, the other one
would be if you are if you are like a biker.
I feel like bikers would not know like a motorcycle
(03:26):
what cyclists or motorcycle because we're very different. Cyclist I
feel like I'm gett I'm trying to pick an activity.
If you are a cyclist, I feel like you are
a Kamala voter. Oh if you're if well, here's the thing.
It's funny because if I if I could call somebody
a biker and know that they wear leather jackets and
(03:47):
have tattooed Trump Trump all the voters. Motorcyclist, all those
people are Trump. But like I but I was gonna say,
if you're talking cyclist who wears the like neoprens z thing, yes,
ninety Commala voters, guys and girls, ninety percent Commala voters.
I don't know why it is, but it is. Do
(04:07):
you agree with? That would be my like if you
had to pick something that somebody does, bicyclist, like meaning
like what Buck said, like you wear the neoprene like
you're out versus weightlifting. I feel like there are other things, right,
like if you're trans, I think you're probably voting Kamala
right in general, Yes, but I'm talking about like activities
that people do. That would be weightlifting and bikeling. Bicycling
(04:31):
would be two things where I'd be like, I feel
like I know how you vote. I will say that
Miami Beach here has historically has had a substantial gay
gay population. All of all of my gay friends in
Miami Beach voting Trump. I actually I'm just saying now
maybe that's because they're my friends, but all of my
gay friends in Miami Beach are voting Trump. I don't
think gay is as much of a proxy for how
(04:53):
you vote in a presidential election now, No, I don't
think it is at all. I'm just saying years ago, anecdote, anecdotally. Yeah,
there's a strong I think there's a strong contingent of
well within the sort of LGBTQ community, among gay men.
I think there's going to be a surprising number of
Trump voters compared to what the Republican norms are. Okay,
(05:16):
speaking of Republican voters, we teased as we went to break,
I just shared this on Twitter. It's kind of a
weird thing. As you said, we don't have election Day anymore.
We have election season. And so in Florida, huge state population,
early voting is underway and every day they release different
(05:39):
outcomes from the early voting. This came down twenty seven
minutes ago. Republicans are getting fifty four percent of the
early vote. Democrats are getting twenty eight percent. This is
in person early voting. Republicans have opened up already a
(06:01):
one hundred and sixty thousand person lead, and an in
person early voting they're winning by twenty six points. Now,
I think this is interesting primarily as a method to
analyze enthusiasm. There are certainly male in ballots that are
out there that will favor Democrats. I think they've already
(06:21):
started to count those. But I take this as a
very good sign. There are lots of excited Trump voters
who want to get out, get their votes in, and
this is I take it a really good sign. The
other bit of Newsbuck that we teased Trump on Friday,
(06:43):
according to Politico, is going to do the Joe Rogan podcast,
which is right now, I believe the biggest podcast essentially
in America. Rogan only releases his show via podcast. I'm
cure ever done the show? You haven't done the show? Buck,
Good move, bad move in your mind for Trump to
(07:05):
do Rogan. This podcast reportedly taping in Austin on Friday.
Nothing nothing but upside. I think for Trump this is
his milieu. Two guys sitting down talking. I mean, this
is what's funny is that Trump almost does a Rogan
style interview when he's talking to sixty minutes. You know,
(07:25):
he just he's always in the element of Trump's world.
I mean, you and I have said this, We've dealt
with this ourselves, Like when you're interviewing Trump a lot
of times unless you're just going to be rude and
try to talk over him or something, and especially when
he's the sitting president, that's particularly rude. But you just
got to kind of let Trump do his Trump thing.
I mean, he's going to answer the questions exactly how
he wants and he's going to speak how you know.
(07:47):
He'll let you know when it's time for you to
come in with another question. You may have to wait
a few minutes. But he's very conversational and very you know,
laid back. I think you can say in a lot
of the stylists sick aspects of an interview, and so
with Rogan, yeah, I mean, you know, he's going to
be sitting there'll probably he'll be in his suit with
his red tie, but he'll be sitting there and they'll
(08:08):
have a lot of fun. And Trump will say some
things that you and I and everyone listening finds highly amusing.
And there will be Mika on Morning Joe as soon
as it comes out, like did you did you hear
what he said about the Oh my gosh, you know,
and all there'll be the pearl clutching going on among
Democrats who get paid too much money to say stupid
things on TV. And I think that Rogan's audience does
(08:31):
cross over into people who are not particularly political but
maybe voting. And when you start to look at what's
that last two percent of it's not just the undecided, right,
there's undecided. There's also like, am I even going to
show up? I think, Rogan, you know how many people
listen to us in the radio that don't plan on voting?
(08:52):
I think the answer is infinitesimal, right, I mean there's
probably a few we could we could take two or
three calls now, like I'm not going to vote, okay,
but ninety nine percent of our audience is going to
you know that are US citizens are going to vote.
We do have some foreigners who listen, which is great,
But Rogan's audience, I think there's a good chunk, especially
of younger men who are probably independent affiliation, who it
(09:15):
could work. And it's not gonna work like it's going
to give a million votes to Donald Trump, But could
it be a few thousand here or there in a
state like Arizona or state like Michigan, et cetera. I
think yes, I think it could be a little helpful.
I think it's smart because what it does is rebut
almost pre butt the closing argument of Kamala Harris that
(09:37):
Trump is Hitler and a unique threat to American democracy.
And that's why I thought the McDonald's stunt was so
funny and also so perfect. Same thing with the Al
Smith dinner, making jokes, having fun, wearing a McDonald's apron
and serving French fries and learning how to make them,
all these things. I think the Rogan Show will just
(09:59):
see fun, and I think Trump will be good in
that setting. Here's a question for you, Buck, what would
you Let's pretend that you were Kamala Harris's top advisor.
You are seeing all these trend lines that Trump supporting
Republicans and moderates. Some are showing up and supporting Trump
(10:22):
in high numbers early voting turnout in North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Nevada, Arizona,
those places where you can see it by a Republican
or Democrat, it's looking pretty good. I should take Georgia
out because I don't think they do it by Republican
or Democrat. What could Kamala Harris do right now? Given
(10:43):
that we are fourteen days out from the election to
change anything that's going on right now. I don't have
any answer the candidate that people are voting on now
when it comes to Kamala as a candidate that you
will be an election day, which I think I would
probably that's really true of anyone at this stage. But
I'm just saying, but is there a media outlet, like
if you were trying to give her advice, what could
(11:05):
she know? I think at this point it's it's irrelevant.
And what I mean is Clay, Yeah, obviously it's the
same person now as the will be in two weeks.
But I'm saying there aren't there. There aren't even tweaks
that they can make to the dial to try to
get a different perception outcome of Kamala. I think they've
actually exhausted some of the addressable audience for Kamala with
(11:26):
the switches that they've made and with the inconsistency. Do
you know what I mean? You know, you can't go
from telling me someone's not doing media so they're doing
a media blitz. So they're not doing media again because
they're so great. Oh no, they're not. Wait hold on,
you can't tell me they're change from Biden, but then
they say that they wouldn't do anything differently than Biden.
But then they say they're still going to change somehow,
like there's been too much cognitive dissonance with the Kamala campaign.
(11:53):
And that also makes perfect sense because Clay, she's been
the what has it been three months or something? I
mean I haven't really counted up the days. How long
has she even been to candidate? It's been, you know,
July twenty first she got elevated. Yeah, right, August September. Yeah,
it's been three months. She's run a three month long campaign.
Of course, this shouldn't work. I mean, if it does work,
(12:14):
Republicans are gonna have to do a lot of soul searching.
But we're not gonna go there. We're not gonna go there.
When we come back, we'll continue to break down more
of this. Take some of your calls. But if you're
out there right now, what do you got Wait? Can
I just throw something to you real quick? Yes? Right,
right wing cyclists with their kneaprene suits on like they're
(12:35):
scubaing on the side of the road, blocking our cars
from going normal speed, dressed like teletubbies, they are lighting
us up. Right now, I'm just let lighting men cyclists
are huge Trump people. I'm getting people that are. I
told them to call it. I'm getting them saying, you're
that's not true. Cyclists. We all agree on the bikers,
(12:56):
and the bikers are like, that's right. They all know, right,
we get that. But yeah, there are team all the way.
But cyclists. And I'm talking. I don't just mean you
ride a bike on the weekends in the town. That's
not a cyclist. I mean the people you all know what,
You've all seen them. They've got the weird handles turned around,
they've got the aerodynamic helmet on, and it's a very
(13:16):
tight clothing, and you think maybe they're French, Like, that's
a cyclist. They're claiming that they're big Trump people. Some
of them are. Some of them I want to hear.
I want them to make this case to the masses
because I'm not buying it. Hey, I'm open to being wrong.
I'm not claiming to begin too. I hope I'm a
genius when it comes to the cycling community, What then,
personality trait would you point to? I don't mean what
(13:40):
you are, right, like you're born white, black, male, female,
like whatever. I mean something that you do as a
hobby advocation that would you would see it and be
like that person is voting Trump or Kamala. I think
most people agree with me, like weightlifters Trump guys, truck
drivers Trump guys, and there's always exceptions, but but motorcycle guys,
(14:04):
boat guys all Trump guys. What would a Kamala person do?
I thought cycling would be one maybe, I mean the
careers we definitely know. But you're talking about hobbies. We'll
get into this morning. How do you got uh, Well,
one thing we know is maybe it'd be a low
testosterone thing that a Kamala voter would do. I gave
(14:24):
you the data. By the way, twenty eight percent of
men in Georgia are voting for Kamala. Twenty eight percent,
seventy thirty basically saying, yeah, I'm on the Trump team.
I bet the seventy percent has infinitely higher testosterone than
the twenty eight percent. And if you don't have the
energy that you used to have, do you know that
(14:46):
by taking chalk you can increase your testosterone levels by
twenty percent within three months. Testosterone linked directly to energy.

Clay Travison buck Sexton mic drops that never sounded so good.
Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you
get your podcasts. Welcome back in Clay Travis Bucks Sexton Show.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
We're having some fun. What hobby would you hear someone
had and immediately say, oh, that person is voting for Kamala.
I'm just getting inundated by cyclist right now. I still
think cycling and again not motorcycling, just like you're on
your bike and you're like, what is neoprene? Right, that's
(16:18):
what it is, right, like the cycling outfit. I don't
think of those people as huge Trump people. Maybe I'm wrong.
I was gonna say bird watching, and Buck just was like, no,
there's tons of bird watchers who are huge Trump people.
You had. I'm trying to think through what would I
hear that you did as a hobby, and I would
be like, Oh, you are definitely a Kamala voter. You've
(16:41):
got one. Oh, I think padel down here, which is
a fan like this fancy version of racquetball that's becoming popular,
at least in South Florida. I don't know if anyone
plays this anywhere else. I think I think Democrats. What
about Peloton, Oh, I think Peloton is. I was gonna
say cipelling again, like I think if you're on the cycle,
(17:01):
not the motorcycle, I tend to. I mean, I guess
that maybe cannot steroids, which is another way to be
on the cycle. You were saying Adele, I went and
saw Adele padell Adele the single Well, I thought you
said Adele the singer. No, I don't even know what
Padell is.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
The factiv.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Maybe makes you a cobble of voter. I never even
heard of Padel. I thought you said Adell the scene
I was gonna say. I went to go see her
in Vegas with Laura. What is the breakdown? What is
the breakdown of voting aged women who like Taylor Swift?
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Is it for Democrats? Though you think it's super high Democrat,
there's I think it's super high everybody. I think it's
like eighty twenty women like Taylor Swift. No, no, no,
I'm saying in terms of the Taylor Swift voting age audience,
are they overwhelmingly Democrats or is it fifty to fifty?
I think it's probably like sixty five to thirty five.
Democrat would be my bet. Oh we're gonna start into this.
(18:00):
We got the cyclists are coming for us right now. Well,
I'll leays speak to the gun owners in the audience,
A lot of you out there, thankfully, that's always room
to improve your aim. Look, I needed my MANTISX. I
used it, but I needed to use it for about
another week before I got out to the range. Those
you have seen we put it on social media. I
had a little shooting the plate's thing, and I'm so
(18:20):
close to running the cycle and then I ran out,
and it was said, mantis X will prevent these moments

You'll be deadI at the range hobbies that differentiator, that
are differentiated political affiliation. Let's see who we've got talkbacks,
(19:04):
We've got calls, let me see hold on VIP email
from Mike. I'll start with this one, Clay, Hey, guys,
definitely ultimate Frisbee. I've been playing for twenty five years.
I'm now fifty seven, and the sport is loaded with
leftist That's a great call. I would great at Frisbee's sport.
I wouldn't really have thought about it very much. But
(19:25):
that is interesting. I'm not trying to cast aspersions. I
don't need the ultimate Frisbee community come after me, but
there is something of an association with the smoking of
certain substances and the playing of Ultimate Frisbee on college campuses.
I knew the frisbee guys a lot of hemp. They
wore a lot of hemp. Also ponytails. I would say,
(19:46):
if you're a man with a ponytail, maybe also a
man bun, you are more likely to vote Kamala than
a man with a normal haircut. Does that makes sense?
Like if you have a ponytail, not a woman. If
you are a man with a ponytail, you are more
likely to vote Kamala than a man with like a
traditional haircut. Are ponytail guys are now going to be furious?
(20:08):
But I mean, like, ponytail guys are gonna come for
you right now. I'm just listening. There's not that many
ponytail guys. If I see a guy with a ponytail,
I'm not like, you know that guy is a huge
Trump supporter. I think it was more early nineties. I
feel like ponytails had a little bit more of a moment.
You know, people are going for it, just like them
with the grunge scene. The goateee became much more of
(20:29):
a thing like bearded men. Yes, I remember the goatee,
but bearded men, not men with beards. Some might say
that there could be somebody on the ticket with one.
I'm talking about bearded men. I think we're more likely
to vote Trump, right, Like if I just if you
only told me, like, hey, what is a male characteristic
(20:53):
that you could point to that would vote Trump? I
would say a beard would be a good guess for men,
an actual facial beer or not a woman. I also
think to Trump wins, he should grow a beard. It
would be epic. But that's there's a there's a meme
of Trump with a beard. I think it would be
incredible if Trump grew a Yeah, let's take some of
these cyclist callers here, Steve and Santa Barbara, a lovely
(21:14):
part of the country. What's up Steve? Hey, guys, Hey, yeah,
you called us? What am I wrong on the cyclist front?
Speaker 4 (21:25):
Partially wrong? On first off, it's not neapremuscra, and there's
numerous reasons to wear the craft. But I would say,
in the old days, there's probably ten percent conservative cyclist
and that might have creeped up to forty percent now
I remember, Well.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
That's quite a big move. But you would if you
had to stake your life on it. And because I
know a lot of people out there respond anytime you
talk about general groups by saying I am ex and
I do why, that doesn't mean the group is wrong. Right, So,
like women are going to vote for Kamala according to
(22:02):
the data, and men are going to vote for Trump,
that doesn't mean that some men aren't voting Kamala or
some women aren't voting Trump. Your individual choice doesn't eliminate
the overall statistical reality. In other words, your anecdote doesn't
eliminate the rule. So would you agree with me that
bicyclist in general, as a cyclist yourself, would vote Kamala
(22:27):
over Trump.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I would partially agree with you. I think that titles turning.
I think Democrats has screwed up so royally that even
a diehard Democrat has to look at what they've done
in saying people are idiot.
Speaker 5 (22:39):
That's issue. That's the way I see it.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Yeah, I have to agree with you that I would
say so but it's turning.
Speaker 6 (22:45):
It's turning.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
And all right, well, I hope more of your lycra
clad brothers and sisters in the cycling world will vote
Trump in this cycle. That would be fantastic. Lou and
Sarasota another cyclist for Trump. Here a fellow Floridian. What's up,
Lou play.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Bud, Good afternoon. Thank you for taking my call. I
appreciate it. Hey or to see guys. Uh So, Yes,
I'm start so, I'm I'm a likero wearing guy. I
also like ars, shotguns, football. Uh So. I will say this,
since we moved here about two years ago, two and
a half years ago, there's a fair amount of contendency
(23:23):
of people that do like Trump or ride bicycles. But
I also think it's geographical because when we lived in Baltimore,
it was very hard to find anybody that was conservative
in the group that we wrote with, which were hundreds
of people.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Right, Well, you're gonna find that with any hobby, right
So we're trying to assess nationally what the what the
political breakdown of some of these hobbies would be. And
by the way, I'm open, I think this is super
fascinating stuff. I'm open to somebody hitting me with and
me being like, you know what, that's genius. I think
you're definitely right. Again, I went weightlifting. You tend to
vote for Trump and bicycling, I would think you tend
(23:59):
to vote for I'm trying not to pick something that
would overwhelmingly be one gender or another. Right, So there
are certain things like that men do more than women,
and so I do need to get a sense of
your judgment here. What is worse to you people who
use leaf blowers before nine o'clock in the morning or
(24:22):
drivers who encroach on the cyclist lane.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
I would say drivers, because leaf blowers should be able
to get up at eight o'clock and more than do
their work.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Oh man, he's pro leaf blowing early morning. We got
a leaf blower who called in. Do we have the
leaf blower who left me a message? Because I think, yeah,
we got to talk back on a leaf blower. For
those of you out there, I'm trying to make the
world more civilized. Leaf blowing should only exist from nine
am in the morning to nine pm at night. It
gives you twelve hours. That's plenty of time to blow
(24:55):
leaves all over the place with your with your Heart's content.
Here is one of our guys from Say Antonio.
Speaker 7 (25:01):
Hey Clay, this is Ben San Antonio landscape for Ben,
and I gotta say, if I was servicing in your area,
I definitely start at seven, maybe even six thirty, just
control you. I think it would be hilarious anyway. I
supported everything else, but this gotta get done. I'm not
(25:21):
gonna be working at night vision goggles. Have a great day,
go Trump.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I did think that my night vision goggles suggestion was
creative one. That's a good one. I'm telling you. I
think the landscapers near me are intentionally starting their leaf
blowers now faster than they otherwise would. I think they've
got it out for me. And I didn't know that
I had angered such a large community. If we got
leaf blowing, flutist bike riders, I'm in trouble. If there's
(25:46):
somebody that overlaps with all three of those, then well, So,
while we're on the subject, kind of do people mow
their lawns too much? Like what's wrong with the grass
getting a little bit longer? I feel like I live
with a tyranny of lawnmower noise everywhere I go all
the time. I'm outside of New York City where no
one has lawns. But I'm always hearing lawns being mode
is Miami. It always is growing in Miami. You don't
(26:09):
have an off season, right you have to cut the
grass all year round. We may have we may have
just solved this puzzle. Thank you for that, But yes,
I mean freaking lawnmowers. I mean, I think in Miami
you would have to cut your grass basically all year round.
I'm sure it grows a little bit slower in the winter,
but you just have to move to a part of
the country where you get like five months off VIPs
lighting us up here, Darlene, You guys are way off
(26:31):
base about cyclists. They wear lycra, not neopreneus. Okay, you
know what islastic is. Yeah, break my synthetics are a
little bit off. Look, it's the good news is that
it still looks like a teletubby. Either way, most cyclists
in our area are fireman, police officers, and real men.
They vote Republican. One's no one said cycling is a
(26:54):
you know, Lance Armstrong is a superstar. We're just trying
to see if there is a political affiliation and that
goes along with some of these things we didn't mention this.
Probably the easiest one is or like the biggest disparity
that you would see if you were to chart this out.
I think if you're a hunter, there's an above a
ninety percent chance you vote for very high. I think
(27:15):
it's probably ninety ninety five percent chance if you are
an active and avid hunter you vote for Donald Trump.
I think if you go to the gun range, it's
probably eighty percent seventy eighty percent you vote for Donald Trump.
So it's also very high. Maybe it's as high as hunting.
So we're trying to think of some of the other
activities all I think would be very high on the
(27:36):
Trump team. Our friend Nick Adams says, if you're a
Taylor Swift fan, you tend to vote. I said, I
thought it would be sixty five thirty five that Taylor
Swift people would vote Kamala. I think that's probably true,
although that's partly again a function of the fact that
Taylor Swift's fan base is overwhelmingly female. I think that
plays in there as well, So you don't think she
(27:58):
necessarily skews left among females. It's just she has such
a huge female audience, and they skew Democrat to begin
That's kind of what I thought like. I would guess
there are a lot of you know, uh right leading
twenty twenty to twenty you know, nine year old girls
in the Nashville area who love Taylor Swift, but they
don't love her politics necessarily. That would be my guest.
(28:18):
I think that's true. I love this by and I
would love to see the data if anybody's got data
on hobbies as a function of political voting. Uh, this
you've seen fascinating to me. You've seen the the in
terms of career or employment. The data is fascinating, and
there are very few professions that skew heavily right wing.
(28:39):
But there are and very few organizations, companies or you know,
or entities, I should say. You know, what you see
is that the things that still remain dominated by Again
we all understand dominated doesn't mean there aren't other people
that you know, have our Democrats that are in the
mix too, but that are overwhelmingly Republican, the marine corps
(29:00):
or police, firemen, general contractors, small business owners. Overall, I
think it's like sixty forty or six you know, tend
to be enemy yeah, you know, it's not like overwhelming.
But when you get on the Democrats side of things,
like ninety five percent of psychiatrists or Democrats ninety nine
(29:23):
percent of Google employees, or Democrats university as university professors
ninety seven percent of them or something like that, or Democrats,
I mean they have these total areas of professional dominance,
which is, you know, unfortunate for the country. By the way,
Union's overwhelmingly Democrat as well. Andrew, By the way, in Ashville, Andrew,
(29:44):
first of all, before we get into your criticism, how
are things in Ashville? Is the waterback power house the
situation for you?
Speaker 6 (29:53):
The water's back power is back in certain areas, but
I mean, overall, it's it's going on. R can't complain, thankfully,
my family we pulled true.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
All right, you just cut your pony tail off. I said,
if you had to go Beard Trump voter, ponytail mail
Kamala voter, do you want to fire back on behalf
of formerly ponytailed men.
Speaker 6 (30:23):
Well, I mean I can't. I can't say that all
ponytail men will vote for Trump. But I definitely voted
for Trump and will vote for Trump. I'm more along
the lines of a moderate independent. I go for the
policies and all that, so.
Speaker 5 (30:40):
I get.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
But if you had, let's say that you were the
president of the Ponytailed Men of Asheville Association, and you
had everybody show up so you guys could play flutes
and ride bikes together, don't you feel don't you feel
like the vast majority of the ponytailed men of America,
when they took a break from playing flutes riding bikes,
would be voting for Kamala.
Speaker 6 (31:03):
I don't know, I can't. I can't say that. Honestly,
I guess it. I guess it just fans, you know.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Uh, nobody puts nobody puts ponytail in a corner. Clay,
all right, you're not. By the way, thank you for
calling in. I'm glad that things are getting good enough
in Asheville for him to be fired up about my
take on ponytails. Uh to uh to be calling. I'm
just saying, can you think of something again, not that
is identity laden other than a ponytail where you would
(31:30):
be like that guy's voting for Kamala. I can't ponytail guy.
I think this is a minor thing. But I have
come across this, Uh, maybe just because we work in media.
If you wear glasses as a fashion accessory, not because
you need them to see, like prescription glasses, you're voting democrats,
like I've never been. Mark Cuban now looks like Rachel Maddow.
(31:52):
Like not if you wear glasses. If you wear glasses
that you don't need for vision purposes, like to hell,
you see. I think there's a very high it's a
fashion accessory. At that point, you like the way they
look on you, I think you're a democrat. Like Mark
Cuban's new glasses. That's because he's gone full democrat. I
think Elon Musk said that he's now indistinguishable from Rachel Maddow,
(32:13):
which when you do put them side by side, it
is really funny how similar Mark Cuban and Rachel Maddow look.
I will say that, all right, pony, we'll take some
more of your calls, cut your ponytails off. But I
want to tell everybody out there to get signed up
right now for prize picks tomorrow. What's today, Today's Tuesday, Thursday.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Closing up shop here on Clay and Buck for the day,
and we are deluge. The skies have opened up. The
hail is hitting us like the size of golf balls
here with all of your emails and talkbacks and everything
on some of the fun we're having. Look, we spent
the first two hours talking about the election and where
we are today. If you missed any of that, please
(33:54):
go back listen on the Clay and Buck app. The
podcast is available for you along with great talents like
Sean Parnell, Carol Markwitz, Lisa Booth, Tutor Dixon. So they're
all on the klan Buck Network. But we did everything
you need to know about the election today. We talked
about now we're talking about silliness. Jay in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Jay,
you I have to say you may have actually the
(34:16):
best answer and the the clearest insight on this conundrum
of all go ahead.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
Absolutely, anyone who wears a mask nowadays is definitely voting
for Kamala, no question.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
I think that may be.
Speaker 5 (34:32):
Jay.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
I think you get the prize if there was one.
I wish we had a prize. Sorry, but we do
get to have you talk to everybody across the country.
Clay ninety nine point nine percent accuracy. I mean that's
more accuracy than like most home pregnancy tests, you know
what I mean, Like do you have a mask on
at this point, you're voting Kamala. It's that is a
great point. I would be stunned if there is a
(34:54):
Trump wearing Trump voting mask wearer anywhere in the country
right now. I mean, I mean, honestly, I would just
be like, how is this possible? And I'm not talking
like somebody might be going through chemotherapy, right You're so
incredibly simp's talking about if if you're a lumberjack and
you don't want to inhale sawdust for your job, We're
talking to talk about you're on an airplane and you
(35:18):
are sitting there in a mask, you are one hundred
percent voting for Kamala. We've also got an I've got
interested with Gerald in Daytona Beach, a Floridian. What's going on? Gerald?
Speaker 5 (35:29):
Hey, this is the Daytona Beach nine and sunny down
here after the hurricanes. But last week was Mike Toberfast,
which is four days a motorcycles and ponytails, and I
wore my Trump hat. By the way, first day of
early voting was here yesterday and I went. But I
kind of did a survey. Well, I was walking down
Main Street, which had five hundred thousand bikers. One person,
(35:53):
one person I found that would vote for Kamala Harris.
Everybody else love the Trump hat and would vote. We're
all boot collar workers and that's that we bought our bike.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Thank you for the call. Now I would say, riding
a motorcycle cancels out the ponytail, Well, now I was gone.
If you're a biker and you have a ponytail, it's
like if you were a Viking in the eight hundreds
and you have a ponytail. Different situation, different situations, different
situation than ponytail, ultimate frisbee or ponytail like weed smoker,
(36:26):
you know, build from the office and accounting. We're talking
about if you walk around wearing birkenstocks with a ponytail, right,
that's a little different. Man bun might be a better
way to describe it.
Speaker 3 (36:36):
Now.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
I don't even know if man buns are still a thing.
They work were for a while. What about Samuraiz, You
know what I mean.
