Speaker 1 (00:01):
Bold reverence and occasionally random.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
The Sunday hang with Playing Fuck podcast starts now usure
has been Spade. So she's, uh, she's, you know, in recovery,
a little puppy recovery.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
It's what you think the odds. What do you think
the odds are that Ginger would have gotten pregnant if
you had not gotten her Spade.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I mean, I think all the dogs around the neighborhood
already know that Ginger is, like, you know, she's uh,
she's very very beautiful canine.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
So I think there would have been puppy interview my yeah.
My point also though, is that I doubt that there's
that many times where she's running free in the neighborhood
right like she's she's unless you've got another dog. Obviously,
in that case you could have your own puppy patrol,
which would actually be really fun. I would think.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
My understanding is, you know, if the neighborhood, you know, romance,
romance can be a possibility. It could happen really fast
among the canines. So I don't know, but she's she's
being taken special care of now. But I thought this
was kind of funny. Also, So yesterday Clay I'm sitting there.
I'm drinking, of course, my Crocket coffee, which is absolutely
delicious and which people can get a Crocketcffee dot com.
(01:12):
The only problem having is people are telling me they're
drinking it so much and so delicious, They're having to
order more and more. And I'm saying, that's a high
class problem. But I'm drinking it. And I heard, Carrie.
I'm on the first floor. I'm drinking my coffee. This
I'm sure you do a similar thing in the morning, right.
Sometimes I work out in the morning, usually the afternoon,
drinking my coffee, and I hear a like an absolute
(01:33):
shriek from the second floor of our home. And I'm
on the first floor, and you know, we have balconies
and sort of different ways of getting into the place.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
So your first thought was, there's an intruder.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Something's going on, like something bad has happened, Like there's like,
you know, some I don't know, something bad has happened,
either to Ginger or there's somebody who's you know, like
you know, like a burglar. I don't know, someone's like
you know, in the wrong place. I go bounding up
the stairs and I'm thinking, like, you know, honestly, I'm like, where,
where's the nearest firearm? You know, this is all happening
(02:06):
over the course of about three seconds. And the good
news is I didn't need my firearm because the perpetrator
of this whole thing was a gecko running around in
our bathroom. There was a little gecko, and you know,
women can be scared by geckos and by mice, I
can find. I think gecko is quite cute, and I
also had a feeling he just wanted to save me
(02:27):
some money on car insurance, so I was hitting. I
wasn't particularly taken aback by this. I asked her if
we could keep him, and she said no. And I
found a little piece of cardboard and I got him
to run onto the cardboard and then I safely placed
him outside. But I just feel like they're like if
you if you scream because there's a furry spider, I
think that's fair, and a rat definitely a mouse, people
(02:51):
get freaked out, But like, I don't think geckos should
be on the I was very interesting. Eight hundred thousand
people saw this, and like thousands of thousand people respond
this about their feelings about geckos. I don't find as
a South Florida resident, the gecko to be like, I
think he's like a fun little guy like that doesn't
bother Like if I had a get go in the
studio with me right now, I'd be like, bring your friends.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
It's a good debate. What is the standard of an
animal that would be worthy of a screen like just
on a on a like if you were assessing the
fearfulness that an animal must project, I think most people
would say snake.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
I take number one wrong. I see a snake and
it's the wrong kind of snake. I'm probably screaming like
a little girl myself. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not
gonna pretend, folks. I'm not going to pretend.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
I told the story on this show about when we
lived in the Caribbean and we came back into the
house and there was a tree rat, which I mean
even the concept of a tree rat, not a squirrel,
like an actual rat that lives in the tree. And
I mean, these things can get big and I'm not
sure who would have won, like a man demand fight
(03:56):
between me and the tree rat. But Lara, this only
time i've it was it a.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Rodent of unusual size.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
It was. It was indeed, And when she came running
in and she screamed, I thought there was an intruder.
But I was pretty terrified of the rat myself. I
think that would be justified. So the question is where
is the line. I'll give you another one when I.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Tell you the worst, the worst animal encounter I ever
actually ever had. I was in an apartment in the
West Village in New York City, and I happened. It
was an old, old building. It was not a fancy apartment.
This is back when I was starting starting my career
at the Blaze, and and a absolutely filthy It was
not a big apartment. You gotta remember this. A filthy
(04:42):
pigeon came down the chimney covered in soot and then
proceeded to fly all over my apartment with like clouds
of soot everywhere. And you're like rats to begin with.
And I had to get like a tennis racket and
kind of shoo it out a window. And I just
remember being like, oh.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
The lice and the mites and the things on this pigeon,
it was disgusting, fell out of nowhere right down the chimney,
and then that thing was like a bat out of
hell all over my four hundred square foot apartment.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
By that's the thing I remember was really confined space.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
That the other one in the Virgin Islands that we had.
I got two animal stories for you here quickly. Scorpion
Scorpion in the shower, Like you're standing there, you know,
like doing your hair, and then you look over and
there's a scorpion there. That was pretty scary, the only
time I can remember ever seeing a scorpion. And then Buck.
(05:35):
You know. I'm teaching my oldest how to drive. So
we're driving back from his school yesterday, and I'll be
damned if multiple deer didn't come darting right across the
road while he was driving. And I thought to myself,
I mean, it's not that often on this road. I've
(05:57):
never seen a deer. There were multiple of them. The
fact that he didn't panic and just either yank it
into oncoming traffic or yank it off the road I
thought was a decent, decent, good sign. But my youngest son,
our middle son, was in the back, he's fourteen, and
he said, Dad, I think we would have all died
if there had been a third deer, because like we
(06:18):
managed to avoid the first two. But you know, a
lot of times deer are crossing roads in groups, and
so that's pretty terrifying. You know, the cost of deer
because nobody hunts anymore in this country. Have you looked
at the data on this. Yeah, the deer population is
higher than it has ever been. I believe this is
true in the entire history of the United States, because
(06:39):
deer have no predator and nobody hunts anymore.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Washington d C in Rock Creek Park, as you may
know because you live in two, has to hire special
hunters to come in to call the deer population because
they start to starve to death, and disease has spread
more rapidly among the population because they're overpopulated. So this
is where we need uh uh uh you know MotorCity
(07:05):
uh uh you know Ted NuGen, Thank you, William, Yeah,
Ted NuGen to come in and more.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
We need more deer hunting going on. Venison taste phenomenal, right,
I mean it really is good, but nobody is killing
deer now, and so the population has become such that
they're having issues with being able to find enough food.
Beat and I remember, I mean doesn't feel that long ago.
Back when I was a kid. In the eighties, it
was a big deal to get to see a deer.
(07:34):
You didn't see them now in the wild. Now now
they're everywhere. Like I mean, you just in my area
of town. You just drive down the road at sunset,
they're off in the farmland on the right and the left,
everywhere you look. They don't even bother hiding anymore.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, venison is delicious, I will say, venison really is.
But I think it's pretty healthy too, isn't it. Yes, Yes,
free range Venison's great. Probably have somebody out there who's like,
you know, venison dealer. Maybe you'll send some to Clay
and Buck will drink it with their rocket or just
eat it with their rocket coffee.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I'm just saying, would go well in honor of Davy Crock. Sunday, Hey,
with Clay and Buck. I saw that they have sent
some of these uh things that we can wear for
the eclipse, these special goggles or glasses for Monday. Have
you paid attention at all to the eclipse that's coming
on Monday.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you, I'm kind of a whimp
when it comes to staring at the sun. No interest,
don't like I like my twenty twenty vision.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I'm not a big sun staring kind of guy.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
It's amazing to me that so many people have booked
out places to travel. Have you seen the total eclipse
line that goes basically across the heart of the country.
You can't find an airbnb in any of these communities,
and they've been booked forever. How long does the eclipse last?
Like fifteen minutes? I mean, I just I'm not that much.
I don't want to. I don't want to upset anybody
(08:52):
out there. Not a huge eclipse guy. Maybe I'll turn
into one on Monday, but it doesn't really impact me
that much. I remember we had one a few years ago.
Went outside, I was like, okay, it's kind of cool.
I think it was a total eclipse. Then I don't.
Not a total eclipse in my heart, but close, and
I don't remember being that blown away by it. I
am blown away, however, just so you know, so the
eclipse is coming on Monday. These numbers Crocket Coffee. We
(09:18):
could not we cannot believe how many people have bought
Crocket Coffee already. We blew through in the first couple
of days what we thought we would do in a month.
I don't even know the data on consumer launch products.
Your brother does and he was sharing it with us.
In a month, we may do more than most companies
(09:40):
do in a year when they launch new products. And
that's all because of you guys. Coffee's great Buck was
just holding it up for all you VIPs out there.
I'm drinking it every single day to start my day.
Makes me think, hey, you know what, America is awesome
and this is the coffee you should drink if you
think America is awesome. When we fin this first hour,
(10:01):
I'm going to go downstairs. I'm going to make myself
a brand new Crockett Coffee, and I'm going to come
back up. And we want you to be in the
Crockett Coffee team as well. We want to not only
be advertising brands that we appreciate being associated with this show,
but we want to create an economy that, to a
large extent, is built on companies that actually respect you
(10:23):
and your values. And we can guarantee you that Crockett
Coffee is never going to turn its back on the
belief that this is the greatest country that's ever existed
in that our history should be celebrated, which is why
we heard from a lot of you out there who
run these sites. If you run a not for profit
historical site anywhere in the country, we heard from people
at the Alamo, We heard from a couple of Civil
(10:46):
War battlefields. I think if you run one of these
sites old home from a famous person, we would love
to send our product to you and let you serve it,
take the It's thank you for helping to preserve American history.
That's what we're trying to do, among many other things
with Crockett Coffee. Go check it out. It's fabulous Crocketcoffee
(11:09):
dot Com. You can subscribe, which we love, makes it easy,
comes to your house. You don't have to be waking
up one morning ready for a cup of coffee. That's
not a good feeling and there's no coffee in the
house and you have to, maybe not in a great mood,
get in your car and go find some coffee. So
we appreciate all of you encourage you. Go check it out.
Crocketcoffee dot Com. Absolutely phenomenal launch. By the way, they're
(11:32):
saying that totality is where the moon completely blots out
the sun and it lasts about three or four minutes
or so. Now, some of my best work has been
done three or four minutes at a time. But I
don't know. I don't know. My wife might disagree. I
don't know that we should buck up. I don't know
(11:54):
that I would travel out and build. I don't know
that I would build an entireake around staying in a
house that I spent a lot of money on, like
the Airbnb goes through the roof, the charges of this
to watch a total eclipse for three or four minutes?
I what am I missing here? What is eclipse guy
(12:16):
or girl out there? What unbelievable moment of transcendence? Am
I not comprehending in the larger universe? Like I understand it?
Why it would have been staggering in I don't know,
the twelve hundreds, when you had no idea of what
really the science behind an eclipse was, you would be like, oh,
(12:36):
this is a huge deal. I mean, they tell you
it's coming and it happens. If it happened you didn't
expect it, I'd be like, oh, there must be something
really important going on here. But when you know it's coming,
I just I'm not an eclipse guy. Am I going
to get deluge like when I was not a flutt I.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Gotta put this to our team in New York. Are
any of you really excited about the eclipse? I'm going
to watch this thing? Or are we just weirdos?
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Who?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (13:01):
This is not really Producer Greg says he is taking
Did you say that.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
On the air for everybody? Greg, you got to come
on the air. First of all, this is come on
the air. You are not coming into work on Monday
because of the eclipse?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
That's correct.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You're a Yukon fan? Is this just technically a lie?
Because Yukon is probably going to be playing for the
championship and you're using the eclipse as an excuse.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
No, I you we booked this months ago.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Where are you going to be?
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Watertown, New York is?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Does Watertown have a total eclipse view?
Speaker 5 (13:33):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
So you decided months ago I'm not going to come
to work for four minutes of eclipse.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
I Look, he's he's the courage of his convictions when
it comes to Greg.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Wait, maybe more than anybody on the show until this
exact moment. And now that I know he's an eclipse guy,
I'm just like, I don't know that I I don't know.
I mean, I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Greig is very steady and reliable, and I just need
to know Greg. Are you also into astrology though, because
that may explain the interest in the eclipse, Like does
the eclipse mean something about where all of our moods
will be? Are you just into the astronomy part of it?
You just think it's cool scientific?
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Exactly When I was a kid, I wanted to be
an astronomer, go to school for that, and I've always
been into that.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
So yes, that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Any Well, congratulations on ending up on this show. By
the way, you wanted to be an astronaum said, you
got to work on Clay and Buck, so this.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Way this is way more fun and far less motion sickness.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
I well, that's true. Also, astronauts don't go anywhere anymore.
I mean, not to take a shot at all the astronauts,
but when's the last time we actually did anything that
was you know what you.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Do if you're a NASA astronaut these days, go to
DEI seminars.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Yeah, I mean, seriously, when's the last time an astronaut
actually did something really unique and hadn't been done before?
We're going back to the moon like sixty years after
we went to the.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Moon, although I will say it's not going to be happy.
First of all, Prucier, Greg, thank you for courage, your
convictions coming on and telling us that you are.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Do you trust him West because he's taken off for the.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Eclipseuse no, because because he's he's he calls it like
he sees it. He's not backing off it at all,
and and I respect that, you know. I would also
say the episode of Uh the Crown where the astronauts
land and Prince Philip or whatever wants to meet with them,
and he thinks they're going to be these like amazing
(15:28):
superheroes and they're just like a bunch of young American
guys who you know, yes, or like, I think it's
really cool to be in the palace. That was a
very good episode.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
I will say, very true the whole quarantine aspect when
they came back from the moon. Do you remember that
where they like it doesn't get talked about a lot,
but they basically just put him in a lab somewhere
and the idea was we're not going to allow them
to touch anybody in case they got some sort of
crazy sickness.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Andromeda Strain original Michael Crichton super hit and drama to
strained that Yeah, oh that's his original.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
My man, that's it's about it like a space virus. Basically,
you really don't trust Greg Less. I'm gonna be honest,
I do. He's an eclipse guy. I don't what else
is he into?
Speaker 2 (16:08):
He doesn't play the flute?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
All right, Producer Greg, for those of you who don't
know taking off Monday, may call in. I told my
wife she was listening. She had two questions for you.
These are Laura Travis questions for producer Greg. Do you
own She wasn't sure whether she had more or less
respect for you, So question number one, do you own
(16:32):
a telescope?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (16:34):
I do?
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Okay? She says that is a sign that you are
actually a interested in astronomy and not just pretending. So
that's a plus from her perspective. Second question she has,
what if it's cloudy you are taking a day off.
What if you can't see the heavens at all and
it is a super cloudy day, don't you feel like
you just wasted a vacation day.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
No, well, it depends.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Where we are going.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Certainly there are there's a chance of clouds because we're
right on Lake Ontario, but slightly if you drive slightly
north or northeast, we should be clear of the clouds.
So you need to be mobile. That's part of the
that's a key.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
But I mean the clouds would destroy the entire purpose
of eclipse right the rain.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
And the clouds that we've had the last few days here,
if that were happening now, it would be a washout.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yes, well, let's not get our eclipse watcher friends anxious here. Clay,
I think it's gonna be fine. You know, the sun
is very big, as is the moon, and you'll probably
be able to see it up in the sky with
the silly glasses. So we are hopeful for all of
you out there who are going to watch this.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
I'm wearing the silly glasses right now. Are you wearing
the silly glasses?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Now? I've got them. I mean, I don't think we're
going to go outside. Jesse Kelly, who many of you
will listen to later in the day, had a fabulous tweet.
You can go vote. By the way, producer, Greg, you
are winning fifty two to forty eight. So this is
again we don't know what the three AM ballots are
gonna are gonna side, they're gonna be on. Uh, but
Jesse Kelly has the best response so far. What kind
of hippie operation are you boys running over there? My
(18:10):
guys aren't even allowed to look out the window. So
we are incredibly generous bosses, I guess buck in Matt context, There.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
There we go. And uh, you know, a great thing
is for whether you're gonna watch the clips or not,
you can drink yourself some delicious Crocket coffee from Crockett
Coffee dot Com. And uh, that means that you'll be
even more focused, more energetic, more ready to go about
your whole day. I'm gonna have a nice mellow weekend.
Oh wow, he's holding up some of those sunglasses. Hope
(18:39):
you all do the same. We're excited to be with
you on Monday. Words. Spread the word about Crockett Coffee.
If you would please tell friends and family. We've got
to keep it going, keep the momentum. And yes, Monday
is eclipse Day. We shall see hopefully it is not
the last day that we all have on earth. Who knows.
Sundays with Clay and Bust Eclipse day and I just
(19:03):
went outside. Clay just went outside. What is the report,
Clay from the Nashville area about this amazing astronomical event,
the eclipse.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Buck, I went outside about ten minutes ago. I can
report that it's completely cloudy. A woman on the street,
woman on her front porch across the street from me.
It wasn't street walkers. I went outside. I said, can
you see anything yet? She basically said no, it's cloudy.
And then I turned around and went back inside. So
(19:36):
the scene in the Nashville area as peak eclipse, I
think it's supposed to be like eighty five percent blocked
here in Nashville, is that you cannot see anything outside
at all. Producer Ali gave us these eclipse glasses, which,
by the way, when I put them on right now, Buck,
I literally can't see anything. I mean they are I
(19:59):
don't know if I'm missing saying something, but I am
just staring right now. For those of you on the
Clay and Buck VIP, I am staring directly into uh
into a black hole. Basically, I can't see anything. Producer Greg, however,
has been in addition to taking the day off for
the eclipse, traveling all over the east coast. He's with us. Now,
(20:19):
can you see a clear sky where you are? Greg?
Speaker 4 (20:24):
We have clear skies, Clay. We have cloud this cloud
light clouds up top, but it is clear and we
are seeing the moon take a bite out of the sun.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Wait, you have a very very serious looking telescope that
you have brought with you as well. What is so
does that just make the dark circle look larger? Like,
explain this to me. What do you do with your telescope?
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Well, it's it's you. Yes, the sun and everything looks closer,
bigger I can see and with the solar filter on there,
it's uh which, Clay, You're glasses are very dark because
they're meant to be looking at the really bright sun.
So that's why you can't see anything else. But you
can see sun spots and the moon covering over the sun. Yeah,
(21:11):
it's pretty amazing.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
So, Greg, and we're happy that you will be returning
to work to do one of the biggest radio shows
in the country later this week. So that's the good
The good news for us is you'll be back here
with us. We respect your dedication, your discipline to the
cause of the eclipse. Is it everything so far? You
had hoped for. That is the critical question.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
So far, We've been lucky. Yes, I was able to
see the one seven years ago. We were at Clemsing
University in South Carolina, my daughter and I and it
was great. And this is Yes, this is turning out.
I'm glad we got on the road and traveled east
so northeast so we could see this.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
So this is the greatest day off you've ever taken
in your life from work. You're like, this four minutes
is going to be read solutionary. Your life's going to
change forever.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
This is this is one of the better days off
I've ever taken from work.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Yes, absolutely, he's all in clay. He is unflappable, unshakable
in his respect for the eclipse. You got you got?
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Are there other big eclipse fans surrounding you? It sounds
like we can hear noise in the in the background.
Have you found an ideal viewing spot?
Speaker 4 (22:21):
We're yeah, We've got a lot of people here. We're
at the New Covenant Church here in Malone, and it's
so many nice people here with telescopes and binoculars and
eyeglasses and hot dogs for free and popcorn. So many
nice people we're having.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
No one blinded yet, No one's blinded yet. No, No,
it's important.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
How long can you look at the sun without I
think it's not long at all before you start doing
eye damage?
Speaker 4 (22:50):
Right, Like, does anyone know it's it's yeah, seconds before
you can yeah, before you start. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Okay, So be careful out there, safety first, Greg. I
know the eclipse is exciting, but we want we want
your eyes to be good to go.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Also, what's your prediction for tonight? Since you're a big
Yukon fan, what happens the Yukon Perdu game. It's a
big day for you. You got the eclipse and Yukon
going for a back to back title.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
It is a big night. I'm predicting Yukon to win
eighty six seventy nine, and yeah, Clinging is gonna end
up with fourteen points and fourteen rebounds.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
That's a strong, strong prediction, by the way, So you
are taking Yukon to cover, Producer Greg. Yukon is a
six and a half point favorite under his prediction here
they will cover, and I believe the over will hit.
I've got to make my predictions as well.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Good stuff, all right, Producer Greg, Thank you so much
appreciate you, sir. Stay safe.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Thank you guys. We'll do we'll keep you posted.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Oh man, that's dude. See he's having a clay. He
is having a great time out there. And I think
it's nice that all the eclipse nerds can get together
once every how ever many years and put on their
glasses and you know, and go do their thing.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
That's good to be fair. They just shared a picture.
I mean, I don't know what a heavy duty telescope
would look like, but I think producer Greg's legit got
a heavy duty telescope. Here are you seeing this picture?
Oh yeah, no, I's not like a flute sized telescope.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
He looks like he could be firing a surface to
surface to air missile off this thing. I mean, it's
it's a pretty intense contraption he's got so like I said, man,
he's all in. And there are a lot of people
that get all in on the eclipse stuff. It is,
you know, if you're off that mindset, I suppose this
is like this is kind of like the super Bowl,
if you will. It's big day, big day for the
eclipse people out there.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
So I think speaking of eclipse people, Sonny Houston has waited.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
This want tomorrow. I think we got to hold this
cause we only have like a minute and a half left.
You want to do this right now? Yeah, I long
all right, he wants I'm sorry, he wants any day
of the eclipse. Go ahead, go ahead, a clips to
You're right, play at Sunny Hostin. Here's what she says, all.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Those things together, what maybe need one to believe that,
you know, either climate change exists, that or something is.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
He's quite at the mercy of climate change.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
It's underground.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
Then think that it happens the eclipse. They've known about
the eclipse coming because eclipses happened, and they actually can
say when these things are going to happen. So all
these folks who are saying, you know, it's a sign
from God. God doesn't give you warning.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Okay, well that's she took it off the rails. But
you might have heard there, Sonny Hostin was like, between
the earthquake and the eclipse, you know, climate change is real,
and I will give them a little credit, even the
other ladies of the viewer, Like that is the dumbest
thing I've ever heard. Like that may be the dumbest thing.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
If joy Behar and Whoopy Goldberg have to correct your
scientific take. You have to presume that it is one
of the dumbest scientific takes of all time. Yeah, I
would love to know how a can you imagine going
on the view of this the Earth temperature may be
changing by one degree over the next fifty years one
(26:06):
degree celsius, and somehow that's changing the trajectory of the
moon and the sun. I mean, how embarrassed would you
be if we got to go on the View and
you sat down and you said something and immediately Whoope
Goldberg and joy Behar both fact checked you correctly. Like,
I can't imagine a more humiliating.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Retire I might have to retire, Like, I might just
have to go back to doing other things.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I'm trying to think of what I could sit down
on the View and say and get immediately fact checked on.
But if it happened, I think, I mean, to your point,
you might have to retire, might have to just go
back to the coffee business full time.
Bold reverence and occasionally random.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
The Sunday hang with Playing Fuck podcast starts now usure
has been Spade. So she's, uh, she's, you know, in recovery,
a little puppy recovery.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
It's what you think the odds. What do you think
the odds are that Ginger would have gotten pregnant if
you had not gotten her Spade.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I mean, I think all the dogs around the neighborhood
already know that Ginger is, like, you know, she's uh,
she's very very beautiful canine.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
So I think there would have been puppy interview my yeah.
My point also though, is that I doubt that there's
that many times where she's running free in the neighborhood
right like she's she's unless you've got another dog. Obviously,
in that case you could have your own puppy patrol,
which would actually be really fun. I would think.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
My understanding is, you know, if the neighborhood, you know, romance,
romance can be a possibility. It could happen really fast
among the canines. So I don't know, but she's she's
being taken special care of now. But I thought this
was kind of funny. Also, So yesterday Clay I'm sitting there.
I'm drinking, of course, my Crocket coffee, which is absolutely
delicious and which people can get a Crocketcffee dot com.
(01:12):
The only problem having is people are telling me they're
drinking it so much and so delicious, They're having to
order more and more. And I'm saying, that's a high
class problem. But I'm drinking it. And I heard, Carrie.
I'm on the first floor. I'm drinking my coffee. This
I'm sure you do a similar thing in the morning, right.
Sometimes I work out in the morning, usually the afternoon,
drinking my coffee, and I hear a like an absolute
(01:33):
shriek from the second floor of our home. And I'm
on the first floor, and you know, we have balconies
and sort of different ways of getting into the place.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
So your first thought was, there's an intruder.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Something's going on, like something bad has happened, Like there's like,
you know, some I don't know, something bad has happened,
either to Ginger or there's somebody who's you know, like
you know, like a burglar. I don't know, someone's like
you know, in the wrong place. I go bounding up
the stairs and I'm thinking, like, you know, honestly, I'm like, where,
where's the nearest firearm? You know, this is all happening
(02:06):
over the course of about three seconds. And the good
news is I didn't need my firearm because the perpetrator
of this whole thing was a gecko running around in
our bathroom. There was a little gecko, and you know,
women can be scared by geckos and by mice, I
can find. I think gecko is quite cute, and I
also had a feeling he just wanted to save me
(02:27):
some money on car insurance, so I was hitting. I
wasn't particularly taken aback by this. I asked her if
we could keep him, and she said no. And I
found a little piece of cardboard and I got him
to run onto the cardboard and then I safely placed
him outside. But I just feel like they're like if
you if you scream because there's a furry spider, I
think that's fair, and a rat definitely a mouse, people
(02:51):
get freaked out, But like, I don't think geckos should
be on the I was very interesting. Eight hundred thousand
people saw this, and like thousands of thousand people respond
this about their feelings about geckos. I don't find as
a South Florida resident, the gecko to be like, I
think he's like a fun little guy like that doesn't
bother Like if I had a get go in the
studio with me right now, I'd be like, bring your friends.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
It's a good debate. What is the standard of an
animal that would be worthy of a screen like just
on a on a like if you were assessing the
fearfulness that an animal must project, I think most people
would say snake.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
I take number one wrong. I see a snake and
it's the wrong kind of snake. I'm probably screaming like
a little girl myself. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not
gonna pretend, folks. I'm not going to pretend.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
I told the story on this show about when we
lived in the Caribbean and we came back into the
house and there was a tree rat, which I mean
even the concept of a tree rat, not a squirrel,
like an actual rat that lives in the tree. And
I mean, these things can get big and I'm not
sure who would have won, like a man demand fight
(03:56):
between me and the tree rat. But Lara, this only
time i've it was it a.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Rodent of unusual size.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
It was. It was indeed, And when she came running
in and she screamed, I thought there was an intruder.
But I was pretty terrified of the rat myself. I
think that would be justified. So the question is where
is the line. I'll give you another one when I.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Tell you the worst, the worst animal encounter I ever
actually ever had. I was in an apartment in the
West Village in New York City, and I happened. It
was an old, old building. It was not a fancy apartment.
This is back when I was starting starting my career
at the Blaze, and and a absolutely filthy It was
not a big apartment. You gotta remember this. A filthy
(04:42):
pigeon came down the chimney covered in soot and then
proceeded to fly all over my apartment with like clouds
of soot everywhere. And you're like rats to begin with.
And I had to get like a tennis racket and
kind of shoo it out a window. And I just
remember being like, oh.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
The lice and the mites and the things on this pigeon,
it was disgusting, fell out of nowhere right down the chimney,
and then that thing was like a bat out of
hell all over my four hundred square foot apartment.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
By that's the thing I remember was really confined space.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
That the other one in the Virgin Islands that we had.
I got two animal stories for you here quickly. Scorpion
Scorpion in the shower, Like you're standing there, you know,
like doing your hair, and then you look over and
there's a scorpion there. That was pretty scary, the only
time I can remember ever seeing a scorpion. And then Buck.
(05:35):
You know. I'm teaching my oldest how to drive. So
we're driving back from his school yesterday, and I'll be
damned if multiple deer didn't come darting right across the
road while he was driving. And I thought to myself,
I mean, it's not that often on this road. I've
(05:57):
never seen a deer. There were multiple of them. The
fact that he didn't panic and just either yank it
into oncoming traffic or yank it off the road I
thought was a decent, decent, good sign. But my youngest son,
our middle son, was in the back, he's fourteen, and
he said, Dad, I think we would have all died
if there had been a third deer, because like we
(06:18):
managed to avoid the first two. But you know, a
lot of times deer are crossing roads in groups, and
so that's pretty terrifying. You know, the cost of deer
because nobody hunts anymore in this country. Have you looked
at the data on this. Yeah, the deer population is
higher than it has ever been. I believe this is
true in the entire history of the United States, because
(06:39):
deer have no predator and nobody hunts anymore.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Washington d C in Rock Creek Park, as you may
know because you live in two, has to hire special
hunters to come in to call the deer population because
they start to starve to death, and disease has spread
more rapidly among the population because they're overpopulated. So this
is where we need uh uh uh you know MotorCity
(07:05):
uh uh you know Ted NuGen, Thank you, William, Yeah,
Ted NuGen to come in and more.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
We need more deer hunting going on. Venison taste phenomenal, right,
I mean it really is good, but nobody is killing
deer now, and so the population has become such that
they're having issues with being able to find enough food.
Beat and I remember, I mean doesn't feel that long ago.
Back when I was a kid. In the eighties, it
was a big deal to get to see a deer.
(07:34):
You didn't see them now in the wild. Now now
they're everywhere. Like I mean, you just in my area
of town. You just drive down the road at sunset,
they're off in the farmland on the right and the left,
everywhere you look. They don't even bother hiding anymore.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, venison is delicious, I will say, venison really is.
But I think it's pretty healthy too, isn't it. Yes, Yes,
free range Venison's great. Probably have somebody out there who's like,
you know, venison dealer. Maybe you'll send some to Clay
and Buck will drink it with their rocket or just
eat it with their rocket coffee.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I'm just saying, would go well in honor of Davy Crock. Sunday, Hey,
with Clay and Buck. I saw that they have sent
some of these uh things that we can wear for
the eclipse, these special goggles or glasses for Monday. Have
you paid attention at all to the eclipse that's coming
on Monday.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you, I'm kind of a whimp
when it comes to staring at the sun. No interest,
don't like I like my twenty twenty vision.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I'm not a big sun staring kind of guy.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
It's amazing to me that so many people have booked
out places to travel. Have you seen the total eclipse
line that goes basically across the heart of the country.
You can't find an airbnb in any of these communities,
and they've been booked forever. How long does the eclipse last?
Like fifteen minutes? I mean, I just I'm not that much.
I don't want to. I don't want to upset anybody
(08:52):
out there. Not a huge eclipse guy. Maybe I'll turn
into one on Monday, but it doesn't really impact me
that much. I remember we had one a few years ago.
Went outside, I was like, okay, it's kind of cool.
I think it was a total eclipse. Then I don't.
Not a total eclipse in my heart, but close, and
I don't remember being that blown away by it. I
am blown away, however, just so you know, so the
eclipse is coming on Monday. These numbers Crocket Coffee. We
(09:18):
could not we cannot believe how many people have bought
Crocket Coffee already. We blew through in the first couple
of days what we thought we would do in a month.
I don't even know the data on consumer launch products.
Your brother does and he was sharing it with us.
In a month, we may do more than most companies
(09:40):
do in a year when they launch new products. And
that's all because of you guys. Coffee's great Buck was
just holding it up for all you VIPs out there.
I'm drinking it every single day to start my day.
Makes me think, hey, you know what, America is awesome
and this is the coffee you should drink if you
think America is awesome. When we fin this first hour,
(10:01):
I'm going to go downstairs. I'm going to make myself
a brand new Crockett Coffee, and I'm going to come
back up. And we want you to be in the
Crockett Coffee team as well. We want to not only
be advertising brands that we appreciate being associated with this show,
but we want to create an economy that, to a
large extent, is built on companies that actually respect you
(10:23):
and your values. And we can guarantee you that Crockett
Coffee is never going to turn its back on the
belief that this is the greatest country that's ever existed
in that our history should be celebrated, which is why
we heard from a lot of you out there who
run these sites. If you run a not for profit
historical site anywhere in the country, we heard from people
at the Alamo, We heard from a couple of Civil
(10:46):
War battlefields. I think if you run one of these
sites old home from a famous person, we would love
to send our product to you and let you serve it,
take the It's thank you for helping to preserve American history.
That's what we're trying to do, among many other things
with Crockett Coffee. Go check it out. It's fabulous Crocketcoffee
(11:09):
dot Com. You can subscribe, which we love, makes it easy,
comes to your house. You don't have to be waking
up one morning ready for a cup of coffee. That's
not a good feeling and there's no coffee in the
house and you have to, maybe not in a great mood,
get in your car and go find some coffee. So
we appreciate all of you encourage you. Go check it out.
Crocketcoffee dot Com. Absolutely phenomenal launch. By the way, they're
(11:32):
saying that totality is where the moon completely blots out
the sun and it lasts about three or four minutes
or so. Now, some of my best work has been
done three or four minutes at a time. But I
don't know. I don't know. My wife might disagree. I
don't know that we should buck up. I don't know
(11:54):
that I would travel out and build. I don't know
that I would build an entireake around staying in a
house that I spent a lot of money on, like
the Airbnb goes through the roof, the charges of this
to watch a total eclipse for three or four minutes?
I what am I missing here? What is eclipse guy
(12:16):
or girl out there? What unbelievable moment of transcendence? Am
I not comprehending in the larger universe? Like I understand it?
Why it would have been staggering in I don't know,
the twelve hundreds, when you had no idea of what
really the science behind an eclipse was, you would be like, oh,
(12:36):
this is a huge deal. I mean, they tell you
it's coming and it happens. If it happened you didn't
expect it, I'd be like, oh, there must be something
really important going on here. But when you know it's coming,
I just I'm not an eclipse guy. Am I going
to get deluge like when I was not a flutt I.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Gotta put this to our team in New York. Are
any of you really excited about the eclipse? I'm going
to watch this thing? Or are we just weirdos?
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Who?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (13:01):
This is not really Producer Greg says he is taking
Did you say that.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
On the air for everybody? Greg, you got to come
on the air. First of all, this is come on
the air. You are not coming into work on Monday
because of the eclipse?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
That's correct.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
You're a Yukon fan? Is this just technically a lie?
Because Yukon is probably going to be playing for the
championship and you're using the eclipse as an excuse.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
No, I you we booked this months ago.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Where are you going to be?
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Watertown, New York is?
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Does Watertown have a total eclipse view?
Speaker 5 (13:33):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
So you decided months ago I'm not going to come
to work for four minutes of eclipse.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
I Look, he's he's the courage of his convictions when
it comes to Greg.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Wait, maybe more than anybody on the show until this
exact moment. And now that I know he's an eclipse guy,
I'm just like, I don't know that I I don't know.
I mean, I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Greig is very steady and reliable, and I just need
to know Greg. Are you also into astrology though, because
that may explain the interest in the eclipse, Like does
the eclipse mean something about where all of our moods
will be? Are you just into the astronomy part of it?
You just think it's cool scientific?
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Exactly When I was a kid, I wanted to be
an astronomer, go to school for that, and I've always
been into that.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
So yes, that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
Any Well, congratulations on ending up on this show. By
the way, you wanted to be an astronaum said, you
got to work on Clay and Buck, so this.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Way this is way more fun and far less motion sickness.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
I well, that's true. Also, astronauts don't go anywhere anymore.
I mean, not to take a shot at all the astronauts,
but when's the last time we actually did anything that
was you know what you.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Do if you're a NASA astronaut these days, go to
DEI seminars.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Yeah, I mean, seriously, when's the last time an astronaut
actually did something really unique and hadn't been done before?
We're going back to the moon like sixty years after
we went to the.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Moon, although I will say it's not going to be happy.
First of all, Prucier, Greg, thank you for courage, your
convictions coming on and telling us that you are.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Do you trust him West because he's taken off for the.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Eclipseuse no, because because he's he's he calls it like
he sees it. He's not backing off it at all,
and and I respect that, you know. I would also
say the episode of Uh the Crown where the astronauts
land and Prince Philip or whatever wants to meet with them,
and he thinks they're going to be these like amazing
(15:28):
superheroes and they're just like a bunch of young American
guys who you know, yes, or like, I think it's
really cool to be in the palace. That was a
very good episode.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
I will say, very true the whole quarantine aspect when
they came back from the moon. Do you remember that
where they like it doesn't get talked about a lot,
but they basically just put him in a lab somewhere
and the idea was we're not going to allow them
to touch anybody in case they got some sort of
crazy sickness.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Andromeda Strain original Michael Crichton super hit and drama to
strained that Yeah, oh that's his original.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
My man, that's it's about it like a space virus. Basically,
you really don't trust Greg Less. I'm gonna be honest,
I do. He's an eclipse guy. I don't what else
is he into?
Speaker 2 (16:08):
He doesn't play the flute?
Speaker 1 (16:10):
All right, Producer Greg, for those of you who don't
know taking off Monday, may call in. I told my
wife she was listening. She had two questions for you.
These are Laura Travis questions for producer Greg. Do you
own She wasn't sure whether she had more or less
respect for you, So question number one, do you own
(16:32):
a telescope?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (16:34):
I do?
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Okay? She says that is a sign that you are
actually a interested in astronomy and not just pretending. So
that's a plus from her perspective. Second question she has,
what if it's cloudy you are taking a day off.
What if you can't see the heavens at all and
it is a super cloudy day, don't you feel like
you just wasted a vacation day.
Speaker 5 (16:57):
No, well, it depends.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Where we are going.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Certainly there are there's a chance of clouds because we're
right on Lake Ontario, but slightly if you drive slightly
north or northeast, we should be clear of the clouds.
So you need to be mobile. That's part of the
that's a key.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
But I mean the clouds would destroy the entire purpose
of eclipse right the rain.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
And the clouds that we've had the last few days here,
if that were happening now, it would be a washout.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yes, well, let's not get our eclipse watcher friends anxious here. Clay,
I think it's gonna be fine. You know, the sun
is very big, as is the moon, and you'll probably
be able to see it up in the sky with
the silly glasses. So we are hopeful for all of
you out there who are going to watch this.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
I'm wearing the silly glasses right now. Are you wearing
the silly glasses?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Now? I've got them. I mean, I don't think we're
going to go outside. Jesse Kelly, who many of you
will listen to later in the day, had a fabulous tweet.
You can go vote. By the way, producer, Greg, you
are winning fifty two to forty eight. So this is
again we don't know what the three AM ballots are
gonna are gonna side, they're gonna be on. Uh, but
Jesse Kelly has the best response so far. What kind
of hippie operation are you boys running over there? My
(18:10):
guys aren't even allowed to look out the window. So
we are incredibly generous bosses, I guess buck in Matt context, There.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
There we go. And uh, you know, a great thing
is for whether you're gonna watch the clips or not,
you can drink yourself some delicious Crocket coffee from Crockett
Coffee dot Com. And uh, that means that you'll be
even more focused, more energetic, more ready to go about
your whole day. I'm gonna have a nice mellow weekend.
Oh wow, he's holding up some of those sunglasses. Hope
(18:39):
you all do the same. We're excited to be with
you on Monday. Words. Spread the word about Crockett Coffee.
If you would please tell friends and family. We've got
to keep it going, keep the momentum. And yes, Monday
is eclipse Day. We shall see hopefully it is not
the last day that we all have on earth. Who knows.
Sundays with Clay and Bust Eclipse day and I just
(19:03):
went outside. Clay just went outside. What is the report,
Clay from the Nashville area about this amazing astronomical event,
the eclipse.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Buck, I went outside about ten minutes ago. I can
report that it's completely cloudy. A woman on the street,
woman on her front porch across the street from me.
It wasn't street walkers. I went outside. I said, can
you see anything yet? She basically said no, it's cloudy.
And then I turned around and went back inside. So
(19:36):
the scene in the Nashville area as peak eclipse, I
think it's supposed to be like eighty five percent blocked
here in Nashville, is that you cannot see anything outside
at all. Producer Ali gave us these eclipse glasses, which,
by the way, when I put them on right now, Buck,
I literally can't see anything. I mean they are I
(19:59):
don't know if I'm missing saying something, but I am
just staring right now. For those of you on the
Clay and Buck VIP, I am staring directly into uh
into a black hole. Basically, I can't see anything. Producer Greg, however,
has been in addition to taking the day off for
the eclipse, traveling all over the east coast. He's with us. Now,
(20:19):
can you see a clear sky where you are? Greg?
Speaker 4 (20:24):
We have clear skies, Clay. We have cloud this cloud
light clouds up top, but it is clear and we
are seeing the moon take a bite out of the sun.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Wait, you have a very very serious looking telescope that
you have brought with you as well. What is so
does that just make the dark circle look larger? Like,
explain this to me. What do you do with your telescope?
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Well, it's it's you. Yes, the sun and everything looks closer,
bigger I can see and with the solar filter on there,
it's uh which, Clay, You're glasses are very dark because
they're meant to be looking at the really bright sun.
So that's why you can't see anything else. But you
can see sun spots and the moon covering over the sun. Yeah,
(21:11):
it's pretty amazing.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
So, Greg, and we're happy that you will be returning
to work to do one of the biggest radio shows
in the country later this week. So that's the good
The good news for us is you'll be back here
with us. We respect your dedication, your discipline to the
cause of the eclipse. Is it everything so far? You
had hoped for. That is the critical question.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
So far, We've been lucky. Yes, I was able to
see the one seven years ago. We were at Clemsing
University in South Carolina, my daughter and I and it
was great. And this is Yes, this is turning out.
I'm glad we got on the road and traveled east
so northeast so we could see this.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
So this is the greatest day off you've ever taken
in your life from work. You're like, this four minutes
is going to be read solutionary. Your life's going to
change forever.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
This is this is one of the better days off
I've ever taken from work.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Yes, absolutely, he's all in clay. He is unflappable, unshakable
in his respect for the eclipse. You got you got?
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Are there other big eclipse fans surrounding you? It sounds
like we can hear noise in the in the background.
Have you found an ideal viewing spot?
Speaker 4 (22:21):
We're yeah, We've got a lot of people here. We're
at the New Covenant Church here in Malone, and it's
so many nice people here with telescopes and binoculars and
eyeglasses and hot dogs for free and popcorn. So many
nice people we're having.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
No one blinded yet, No one's blinded yet. No, No,
it's important.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
How long can you look at the sun without I
think it's not long at all before you start doing
eye damage?
Speaker 4 (22:50):
Right, Like, does anyone know it's it's yeah, seconds before
you can yeah, before you start. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Okay, So be careful out there, safety first, Greg. I
know the eclipse is exciting, but we want we want
your eyes to be good to go.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Also, what's your prediction for tonight? Since you're a big
Yukon fan, what happens the Yukon Perdu game. It's a
big day for you. You got the eclipse and Yukon
going for a back to back title.
Speaker 4 (23:15):
It is a big night. I'm predicting Yukon to win
eighty six seventy nine, and yeah, Clinging is gonna end
up with fourteen points and fourteen rebounds.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
That's a strong, strong prediction, by the way, So you
are taking Yukon to cover, Producer Greg. Yukon is a
six and a half point favorite under his prediction here
they will cover, and I believe the over will hit.
I've got to make my predictions as well.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Good stuff, all right, Producer Greg, Thank you so much
appreciate you, sir. Stay safe.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
Thank you guys. We'll do we'll keep you posted.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Oh man, that's dude. See he's having a clay. He
is having a great time out there. And I think
it's nice that all the eclipse nerds can get together
once every how ever many years and put on their
glasses and you know, and go do their thing.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
That's good to be fair. They just shared a picture.
I mean, I don't know what a heavy duty telescope
would look like, but I think producer Greg's legit got
a heavy duty telescope. Here are you seeing this picture?
Oh yeah, no, I's not like a flute sized telescope.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
He looks like he could be firing a surface to
surface to air missile off this thing. I mean, it's
it's a pretty intense contraption he's got so like I said, man,
he's all in. And there are a lot of people
that get all in on the eclipse stuff. It is,
you know, if you're off that mindset, I suppose this
is like this is kind of like the super Bowl,
if you will. It's big day, big day for the
eclipse people out there.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
So I think speaking of eclipse people, Sonny Houston has waited.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
This want tomorrow. I think we got to hold this
cause we only have like a minute and a half left.
You want to do this right now? Yeah, I long
all right, he wants I'm sorry, he wants any day
of the eclipse. Go ahead, go ahead, a clips to
You're right, play at Sunny Hostin. Here's what she says, all.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Those things together, what maybe need one to believe that,
you know, either climate change exists, that or something is.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
He's quite at the mercy of climate change.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
It's underground.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
Then think that it happens the eclipse. They've known about
the eclipse coming because eclipses happened, and they actually can
say when these things are going to happen. So all
these folks who are saying, you know, it's a sign
from God. God doesn't give you warning.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Okay, well that's she took it off the rails. But
you might have heard there, Sonny Hostin was like, between
the earthquake and the eclipse, you know, climate change is real,
and I will give them a little credit, even the
other ladies of the viewer, Like that is the dumbest
thing I've ever heard. Like that may be the dumbest thing.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
If joy Behar and Whoopy Goldberg have to correct your
scientific take. You have to presume that it is one
of the dumbest scientific takes of all time. Yeah, I
would love to know how a can you imagine going
on the view of this the Earth temperature may be
changing by one degree over the next fifty years one
(26:06):
degree celsius, and somehow that's changing the trajectory of the
moon and the sun. I mean, how embarrassed would you
be if we got to go on the View and
you sat down and you said something and immediately Whoope
Goldberg and joy Behar both fact checked you correctly. Like,
I can't imagine a more humiliating.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Retire I might have to retire, Like, I might just
have to go back to doing other things.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I'm trying to think of what I could sit down
on the View and say and get immediately fact checked on.
But if it happened, I think, I mean, to your point,
you might have to retire, might have to just go
back to the coffee business full time.
