The Sunday Hang is brought to you by Chalk Natural
Supplements for guys, gals, and nothing in between. Fuel your
day at Chalk dot Com.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Bold reverence, and occasionally random The Sunday Hang with Clay
and Podcast. It starts now, I get.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
You want die Hard with my wife tomorrow. She's never
seen the whole movie, she claims to have seen clips.
I may have started quoting die Hard to her. She
did not know what I was talking about, so I
was like, Honey, clearly you haven't seen enough die Hard.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
You know I mean if.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I'm saying welcome to the party, pal, and you know
you know what I mean. I I just put her
through a little test, so she's got to pass the
die Hard test.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
We'll watch that one tomorrow night. Clay, I'm not sure
you passed the Ultimate fan test. Again.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
I'm hearing rumors, perhaps from you, but now I'm sharing
it with everybody else that there is a temperature limit
to go see this for your was this for your
Tennessee Vauls?
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Who is this involving?
Speaker 1 (00:57):
There's a this week's limit to Clay's fandom? Why don't
you tell everybody Clay a little you know true confession
Football hour here.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
You are not going to a balls game because.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
It's a huge game for those of you out there
that are college football fans, which I bet is a
pretty high percentage of you. First ever home stadium college
football playoff New twelve team Playoff. Notre Dame, Penn State, Texas,
and Ohio State are all hosting home playoff team games.
(01:31):
I am a Tennessee fan my grandfather since I was
five years old. My grandfather played for General neland I
wrote about this in my first book, dixiey Land Delight.
They're playing in Columbus, Ohio on Saturday night against Ohio State,
and I am not going now, partly because it's.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
A trip, right. I just got back from Israel.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
But if the weather were really good, I would probably
be going. It's going to be like fifteen or twenty degrees.
It's at night, there will be a wind chill. I'm
not willing to sit outside and freeze, and so I'm
not gonna be there.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Now.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
I'm getting lit up. A lot of you are attacking me.
There's a poll up. Most of you are disagreeing with
my decision. But it does make me wonder, is there
anything you like doing? Enough that you would sit for
four hours in fifteen or twenty degree weather?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Buck?
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Do you have?
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Is there anything that is out there that you would say, Hey,
you know what I'm willing. I'm excited enough. I'm a
fan of this enough that I am willing to be
in the You know, I live in Miami.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
So you are you are soft? Now?
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Everybody who lives in Miami is super soft when it
comes to the weather. I bet you're wearing jacket when
it's like sixty three degrees outside. Now your New yorkerness
has faded. My wife lives in Nashville, where it's a
lot warmer than Michigan. She doesn't deal well with the
cold anymore. Doesn't take long. A lot of you listening
to us in southern California, you're all soft. Is there
(03:07):
anything you would spend four hours in the cold for.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Clay?
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I can't even last more than an hour at a
wedding if the band is too loud. So no, I
there is nothing that I in terms of things that
I enjoy like that I would want to do activities.
The only thing that comes close to this is when
my dad used to drag me when I was a
kid to go hunting or fishing, and somehow we were
(03:33):
always up at five o'clock in the morning and.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
It's oftentimes easily absolutely freezing outside, and we would sit there.
I did this. I would never do it again.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
But that's the only time I've been freezing my butt
off four hours at a time.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
It's like, hey, Dad, is that a deer in the distance?
Sh just I know it's dark. I know a lot
of you.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
I know a lot of you are listening to us
right now, and you are in Wisconsin and you go
to Green Bay Packer games and you're like, oh, it's
minus ten degrees. Clay, I don't even think twice about it.
I don't do cold. And so if this game we're
being played in Miami, for instance, where you are, I
think I probably would have traveled for it. But to
sit outside freeze. I also think Ohio State's gonna beat Tennessee,
(04:19):
so that factors in a little bit. But to sit
outside and freeze like this, I can't think of anything
more miserable. You know, there's a lot of people for
the inauguration and then for the inauguration parade. It's oftentimes
bitterly cold. In Washington, d C. We'll see how it
is on January twentieth. You and I will be up there,
(04:40):
but people will stand for hours to have good proximity
for the parade, to have good proximity for the inauguration itself.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
I similarly, I.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
Am just I'm done, I think with being outdoors for
cold related events. I saw, you know, one of the
biggest shows of the year is still the Macy's Thanksgiving
Day Parade where they come down. I guess it's Fifth
Avenue and you have all the floats and everything else.
I guess it was rainy and very chilly, and I
thought to myself, I can't think of anything more miserable
(05:11):
than standing on the side right now watching a parade
and freezing my ass off. So I'm getting lit up
about this. I'm pretty convinced that I am never doing
cold weather related events like this again. And I understand
some of you would say you would do it, but
then when it actually came pushed to shove, you would bail.
So I want every game played in really warm weather,
(05:35):
in nice stadiums or indoors.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
If you have to be at an event and it's
going to be either just sweltering, your sweating through your
shirt or your knees are clocking together because you're so cold,
even though you got on your park or whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Would you rather take super cold or super supery.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
That's a tough call because I've been at games where
I thought I was going to die, especially in the South.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
I mean sports, I love it.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Oh, I mean I have been at some games where
it is just like you really think you're going to die.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
And the argument out there.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
People at lambeau Field not lose fingers. I am curious
about this because I've seen games there on the television
when I'm at home drinking hot cocoa and my PG yeah,
and I go.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Wow, how do they stay? You know what I mean?
I think it's layers.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
I think they are experts, and so you would go
in with like nine different layers and then they throw
the handwarmers and the toe warmers and the shoes and
everything else. The argument on the hot versus cold for
big games is you can always take more clothes off.
You can't take you can only take so many clothes off,
you can put more on. I'm kind of getting to
(06:50):
the point where I don't want to be really hot
or really cold, but I think I would much rather
be really hot than really cold, because you can find
shade and you can chill in the shade for a while,
and I would just rather have that option. You know.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
I went to Omaha, which was great.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
We've got a lot of listeners out there in Omaha
for the College World Series, and it was insanely hot.
But but I think I would prefer that over insanely cold.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Fair enough, now going into give me some of the
Clay Travis family. What are the traditions? What are the
Christmas things that you're going to be you guys are
all going to be doing.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
He got the Three boys. What do you guys do?
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Like, what's the you know, we're having a little Christmas
party down here in South Florida, so we'll see a
lot of our friends, see some of our family. Other
than that, it's like Pj's hanging with Ginger your full
name Ginger Spice by the way, that is their dog,
And yeah, we just do our thing.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
What do you guys do?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
I know, we've got a lot of people out there
that are ready for Santa to come. And do you remember,
I know we were talking earlier about doctor Fauci with
Rand Paul. They the Noorad tracking. For those of you
who have kids, you know what I'm talking about. You
can get onto your computer and you can watch or
(08:08):
your iPad or your phones, and you can watch Santa
as he's going around all the different places in the world.
And a lot of times that can be an encouragement
to get the little kids in bed. And we have
done that for years and years now, and so we
will on Christmas Eve be watching Santa to see where
he is and making sure that the kids are in
(08:29):
bed and all that. Twenty twenty and twenty twenty one
buck they put Santa in a mask on the Norrad
Santa Tracker just I know, I know, hey, it's the
spirit of joy and everything else. I'm still angry about
all that whole era, but I remember pulling it up
from our home and Santa was wearing a mask so that,
(08:51):
you know, he wouldn't get COVID and die.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
In his sleigh.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
They really did that on the Noorad, on the nor
Ad Santa trackerbably because crazy left wingers would have complained
if that weren't the case. But we have we are still,
We've got we're in the Santa era here, and so
I think It's almost impossible to have more fun when
you have young kids than when they have been and
(09:17):
are really just excited beyond belief about the concept of
Santa Claus coming. And so we'll go out to dinner
on Christmas Eve, uh and as a family, and then
the boys will uh get get ready for for Christmas Day.
I can't wait. It's uh, it's pretty fantastic. And the
day after Christmas we're gonna go down to Mexico. So
(09:37):
that's what we've got on tap.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Did we ever get an answer about the drones speaking
of Santa flying around? Wouldn't that be quite a thing
if it turned out this was all at elaborate Santa Ruz,
you know, and that actually one of the each one
of the drones was making a reindeer in the sky
or something.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
This is like a happy ending to the whole debacle.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
Well, this also reminds me of the greatest line from
a Christmas movie. I think out there to me, it's
you serious, Clark, when Chevy Chase is saying, hey, you know,
they just found out more details about Santa Claus, and
the Dennis Quaid character says, you serious, Clark. But yes,
if it were somehow can it. That's what Woopy Goldberg argued.
(10:20):
You're now making the same argument as Whoopy Goldberg. On
the view box, she said, Oh, I think the drone
thing is just an elaborate test to get ready for
a big celebration for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Well, I don't actually think that's happening.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I'm just saying, wouldn't that be a nice way that
we could close out the whole drone fiasco.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
It does feel like Entertainersco Has died back a little bit.
Maybe they found whatever they were looking for, or they've
kind of brought back the number that are out there.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
To the people who are saying it's nuclear waste or
other it's nuclear material, or trying to find why don't
you see it and getting on mad at me it's
going to be don't be don't be Scrooge, get in
the Christmas spirit.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Okay, it's not.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
It's not nuclear fault all out material in New Jersey
or something. Trust me, New Jersey would know if it had,
well probably New Jersey would probably know if they had
nuclear fallout material, you know, making its way around.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
So I think that that's very good. I've got to say.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Sunday Hay with Clay and Buck.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
We're both getting lit up a little bit here by
people who are not having it with with my I
don't want to go a hunting in cold weather again,
and you not want really cold weather and you not
wanting to sit through how.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Cold is it going to be at the balls games?
Speaker 4 (11:32):
But about twenty degrees? But I mean four hours in
twenty degree weather is a long time. And I understand
people who are lighting me up over this. But the
older I get, the less I'm willing to do cold.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
We're just we're being called a bunch of bunch of
fancy guys over here. Vip Sherry says. My husband says,
you both need to tear up your man cards. Buck
for not knowing that Roger still plays in the NFL
fair and Clay for the cold weather at a football game.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
So there's that going on. We go ahead.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
No, No, I'm looking at uh at all these different
all these different VIPs, some.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
People not in the not really in the Christmas spirit,
being a little scrooge like with our our refusal to
be too cold. Uh VI, I P Tom, this is
actually a good point. I have a ticket to Trump's inauguration,
and that is worth sitting outside in the cold to attend.
First of all, Tom, I think you're gonna, really, you're
gonna You're gonna witness history.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
It's gonna be amazing. Good for you.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
On going to the inauguration, Clay and I will be
uh in d C at that time as well.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
But I will tell you, Merry Christmas. I will tell
you that.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
D C is always not that cold. I'm just DC's
not that cold. It doesn't get like I've I've lived in.
I lived in Valley, Pioneer Valley, Massachusetts for four years.
That place gets cold, Buffalo, Minnesota, those places get cold.
D C.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
It's never really that cold, So it's not going to
be that rough.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
The only thing I'll say about DC is it's not
that easy to You walk around in DC a lot,
and that can be super cold, and out on the
ellipse where there aren't a lot of trees, the wind
will whip around you. And I will be live during
the Trump inauguration, which will actually be really fun, and
we'll be in DC. We'll be doing the show and
we'll probably be taking a lot of the different speeches
(13:23):
and activities that are occurring up there. But I also
think that would be just as fun to watch on television.
Here's the other thing I'll say, television for sports has
gotten so much better in terms of the HD and
the four K and everything else associated with it. In
the fact, you probably remember this, Buck, Do you remember
(13:43):
the first flat screen television you got? Sometimes technology is
oversold and you're like, it's not that much better. The
HD television on flat screens was a seismic change compared
to prior and it actually makes I think oftentimes sports
more fun to watch on television than to even be present,
(14:06):
to say nothing of the cost and the time associated
with it, Just the experience itself is often better on television.
Back in standard definition days, I might have been willing
to sit in.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
The cold more Sundays with Clay and Bus.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
I've heard a rumor, and I guess it's not a
rumor because it's from you, So that's technically just firsthand
that you are going to see Gladiator two today.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Is this correct?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Not a Christmas movie? But it is a Christmas release
of Sword.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Yes, it came out Thanksgiving fair.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I am highly suspect that this is gonna work out well,
But I because I'm with your wife, Lauras says it's
your favorite movie, it's a maybe yeah Gladiator, not Gladiator
too Gladiator. For me, it's definitely a top five movie.
It's an absolutely fantastic movie. It's probably that's number two for me.
I think Braveheart's number one for favorite movies all time.
(15:00):
How are you feeling about this going into it? You know,
I feel like it's like the pregame show for the
movie you're gonna see.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
Well, I feel like it's gonna be good, and I
have no idea. I haven't read the reviews. I'm going
in completely blind. I didn't realize cause I went to
buy tickets. You know, the Lion King Mufasa movie is
coming out, and I don't watch traditional media, I guess,
(15:27):
so I miss a lot of knowing what movies are
coming out and everything else. And I only know because
I went into the movie theater to go buy tickets.
I'm actually kind of intrigued to see. For those of
you who have forgotten Mufasa is the evil lion and
Lion King, that one actually seems like it's probably gonna
(15:47):
dominate Mufasa.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Oh sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, Yes, I know your powers
of pretension sorrow as weak as a war togs backside.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
I've been thinking this totally wrong. I don't care about Mufasa.
I thought this was the Scar movie. I wanted the
bad guy of the Lion King. I've gotten that totally wrong. Yeah,
I'm glad you're there to correct me, because my phone
would have been a disaster.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I mean, that's confusing Mufasa and Scar. That's like, that's
like Darth Vader versus Luke. I mean, you gotta know
what's what you.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Want to talk.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I know what the woke era is crazy.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Do you remember that they decided it was racist for
a white person to be the voice of a lion
because lions were from Africa. Do you remember this discussion, John,
There was a lot of discussion around the Lion King
because I believe Whoope Goldberg voiced the hyena in The
(16:49):
Lion King and Scar. There was this whole thing a
Scar was played by Jeremy Irons, but they said that
there were people that said that Jeremy Irons that it
was anti lg BTQ because Scar didn't have a female
so Scar was a gay lion. There was all this
like social justice analysis of this. This might have been
(17:09):
the craziest argument out there, and I think it's still
still percolating. Jonathan Taylor Thomas, who was one of the
kids from Home Alone, was the voice of Young Simba, which.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Is Taylor Thomas was in Home Alone. Now did I
say Home Alone? Yes?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Hold on, Jonathan Taylor Thomas Home Improvement. There was one
of the kids from Home Improvement. Yes, my pop culture
bonafides are collapsing here. But he's a young white kid.
He was the voice of Young Simba. They said it
was racist because lions are from Africa to have white
(17:53):
people as the voice for cartoon lions. So when they
have remade the Lion King movies, they have insisted that
only black people can voice the lions because otherwise it
would be cultural appropriation.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
This is one of the craziest things I've ever heard.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
So in theory Buck, this would mean like Kung Fu Panda,
it has to be a Chinese person who is doing
the voice of the panda or else it would be
racist cultural appropriation.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Right.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
You know what's funny is if you had somebody doing
speaking in an English speaking English and having a Chinese accent,
it would be considered the panda.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
That would be super racist, Yes, but to have.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
A white guy speaking just English as a panda also racist.
I'm starting to feel like Clay, no matter what they are,
people gonna say that's kind of racist, but I'm never
even yes, that's one hundred percent the case. But think
about the idea being that the race of the person
who speaks for an animal has to be from the
(18:58):
same place. So if you, for instance, if there's a
tiger like Tony the Tiger back in the day in
Frosted Flakes, if it weren't an Indian guy, it would
be racist. For I mean, this is what they were arguing,
and this is what I was thinking when I went
in and I started to get my tickets for Gladiator too,

thought to myself, I can't think of anything more miserable
(05:11):
than standing on the side right now watching a parade
and freezing my ass off. So I'm getting lit up
about this. I'm pretty convinced that I am never doing
cold weather related events like this again. And I understand
some of you would say you would do it, but
then when it actually came pushed to shove, you would bail.
So I want every game played in really warm weather,
(05:35):
in nice stadiums or indoors.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
If you have to be at an event and it's
going to be either just sweltering, your sweating through your
shirt or your knees are clocking together because you're so cold,
even though you got on your park or whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Would you rather take super cold or super supery.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
That's a tough call because I've been at games where
I thought I was going to die, especially in the South.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
I mean sports, I love it.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Oh, I mean I have been at some games where
it is just like you really think you're going to die.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
And the argument out there.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
People at lambeau Field not lose fingers. I am curious
about this because I've seen games there on the television
when I'm at home drinking hot cocoa and my PG yeah,
and I go.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Wow, how do they stay? You know what I mean?
I think it's layers.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
I think they are experts, and so you would go
in with like nine different layers and then they throw
the handwarmers and the toe warmers and the shoes and
everything else. The argument on the hot versus cold for
big games is you can always take more clothes off.
You can't take you can only take so many clothes off,
you can put more on. I'm kind of getting to
(06:50):
the point where I don't want to be really hot
or really cold, but I think I would much rather
be really hot than really cold, because you can find
shade and you can chill in the shade for a while,
and I would just rather have that option. You know.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
I went to Omaha, which was great.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
We've got a lot of listeners out there in Omaha
for the College World Series, and it was insanely hot.
But but I think I would prefer that over insanely cold.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Fair enough, now going into give me some of the
Clay Travis family. What are the traditions? What are the
Christmas things that you're going to be you guys are
all going to be doing.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
He got the Three boys. What do you guys do?
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Like, what's the you know, we're having a little Christmas
party down here in South Florida, so we'll see a
lot of our friends, see some of our family. Other
than that, it's like Pj's hanging with Ginger your full
name Ginger Spice by the way, that is their dog,
And yeah, we just do our thing.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
What do you guys do?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
I know, we've got a lot of people out there
that are ready for Santa to come. And do you remember,
I know we were talking earlier about doctor Fauci with
Rand Paul. They the Noorad tracking. For those of you
who have kids, you know what I'm talking about. You
can get onto your computer and you can watch or
(08:08):
your iPad or your phones, and you can watch Santa
as he's going around all the different places in the world.
And a lot of times that can be an encouragement
to get the little kids in bed. And we have
done that for years and years now, and so we
will on Christmas Eve be watching Santa to see where
he is and making sure that the kids are in
(08:29):
bed and all that. Twenty twenty and twenty twenty one
buck they put Santa in a mask on the Norrad
Santa Tracker just I know, I know, hey, it's the
spirit of joy and everything else. I'm still angry about
all that whole era, but I remember pulling it up
from our home and Santa was wearing a mask so that,
(08:51):
you know, he wouldn't get COVID and die.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
In his sleigh.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
They really did that on the Noorad, on the nor
Ad Santa trackerbably because crazy left wingers would have complained
if that weren't the case. But we have we are still,
We've got we're in the Santa era here, and so
I think It's almost impossible to have more fun when
you have young kids than when they have been and
(09:17):
are really just excited beyond belief about the concept of
Santa Claus coming. And so we'll go out to dinner
on Christmas Eve, uh and as a family, and then
the boys will uh get get ready for for Christmas Day.
I can't wait. It's uh, it's pretty fantastic. And the
day after Christmas we're gonna go down to Mexico. So
(09:37):
that's what we've got on tap.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Did we ever get an answer about the drones speaking
of Santa flying around? Wouldn't that be quite a thing
if it turned out this was all at elaborate Santa Ruz,
you know, and that actually one of the each one
of the drones was making a reindeer in the sky
or something.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
This is like a happy ending to the whole debacle.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
Well, this also reminds me of the greatest line from
a Christmas movie. I think out there to me, it's
you serious, Clark, when Chevy Chase is saying, hey, you know,
they just found out more details about Santa Claus, and
the Dennis Quaid character says, you serious, Clark. But yes,
if it were somehow can it. That's what Woopy Goldberg argued.
(10:20):
You're now making the same argument as Whoopy Goldberg. On
the view box, she said, Oh, I think the drone
thing is just an elaborate test to get ready for
a big celebration for Christmas.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Well, I don't actually think that's happening.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I'm just saying, wouldn't that be a nice way that
we could close out the whole drone fiasco.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
It does feel like Entertainersco Has died back a little bit.
Maybe they found whatever they were looking for, or they've
kind of brought back the number that are out there.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
To the people who are saying it's nuclear waste or
other it's nuclear material, or trying to find why don't
you see it and getting on mad at me it's
going to be don't be don't be Scrooge, get in
the Christmas spirit.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Okay, it's not.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
It's not nuclear fault all out material in New Jersey
or something. Trust me, New Jersey would know if it had,
well probably New Jersey would probably know if they had
nuclear fallout material, you know, making its way around.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
So I think that that's very good. I've got to say.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Sunday Hay with Clay and Buck.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
We're both getting lit up a little bit here by
people who are not having it with with my I
don't want to go a hunting in cold weather again,
and you not want really cold weather and you not
wanting to sit through how.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Cold is it going to be at the balls games?
Speaker 4 (11:32):
But about twenty degrees? But I mean four hours in
twenty degree weather is a long time. And I understand
people who are lighting me up over this. But the
older I get, the less I'm willing to do cold.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
We're just we're being called a bunch of bunch of
fancy guys over here. Vip Sherry says. My husband says,
you both need to tear up your man cards. Buck
for not knowing that Roger still plays in the NFL
fair and Clay for the cold weather at a football game.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
So there's that going on. We go ahead.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
No, No, I'm looking at uh at all these different
all these different VIPs, some.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
People not in the not really in the Christmas spirit,
being a little scrooge like with our our refusal to
be too cold. Uh VI, I P Tom, this is
actually a good point. I have a ticket to Trump's inauguration,
and that is worth sitting outside in the cold to attend.
First of all, Tom, I think you're gonna, really, you're
gonna You're gonna witness history.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
It's gonna be amazing. Good for you.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
On going to the inauguration, Clay and I will be
uh in d C at that time as well.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
But I will tell you, Merry Christmas. I will tell
you that.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
D C is always not that cold. I'm just DC's
not that cold. It doesn't get like I've I've lived in.
I lived in Valley, Pioneer Valley, Massachusetts for four years.
That place gets cold, Buffalo, Minnesota, those places get cold.
D C.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
It's never really that cold, So it's not going to
be that rough.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
The only thing I'll say about DC is it's not
that easy to You walk around in DC a lot,
and that can be super cold, and out on the
ellipse where there aren't a lot of trees, the wind
will whip around you. And I will be live during
the Trump inauguration, which will actually be really fun, and
we'll be in DC. We'll be doing the show and
we'll probably be taking a lot of the different speeches
(13:23):
and activities that are occurring up there. But I also
think that would be just as fun to watch on television.
Here's the other thing I'll say, television for sports has
gotten so much better in terms of the HD and
the four K and everything else associated with it. In
the fact, you probably remember this, Buck, Do you remember
(13:43):
the first flat screen television you got? Sometimes technology is
oversold and you're like, it's not that much better. The
HD television on flat screens was a seismic change compared
to prior and it actually makes I think oftentimes sports
more fun to watch on television than to even be present,
(14:06):
to say nothing of the cost and the time associated
with it, Just the experience itself is often better on television.
Back in standard definition days, I might have been willing
to sit in.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
The cold more Sundays with Clay and Bus.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
I've heard a rumor, and I guess it's not a
rumor because it's from you, So that's technically just firsthand
that you are going to see Gladiator two today.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Is this correct?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Not a Christmas movie? But it is a Christmas release
of Sword.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Yes, it came out Thanksgiving fair.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I am highly suspect that this is gonna work out well,
But I because I'm with your wife, Lauras says it's
your favorite movie, it's a maybe yeah Gladiator, not Gladiator
too Gladiator. For me, it's definitely a top five movie.
It's an absolutely fantastic movie. It's probably that's number two for me.
I think Braveheart's number one for favorite movies all time.
(15:00):
How are you feeling about this going into it? You know,
I feel like it's like the pregame show for the
movie you're gonna see.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
Well, I feel like it's gonna be good, and I
have no idea. I haven't read the reviews. I'm going
in completely blind. I didn't realize cause I went to
buy tickets. You know, the Lion King Mufasa movie is
coming out, and I don't watch traditional media, I guess,
(15:27):
so I miss a lot of knowing what movies are
coming out and everything else. And I only know because
I went into the movie theater to go buy tickets.
I'm actually kind of intrigued to see. For those of
you who have forgotten Mufasa is the evil lion and
Lion King, that one actually seems like it's probably gonna
(15:47):
dominate Mufasa.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Oh sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, Yes, I know your powers
of pretension sorrow as weak as a war togs backside.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
I've been thinking this totally wrong. I don't care about Mufasa.
I thought this was the Scar movie. I wanted the
bad guy of the Lion King. I've gotten that totally wrong. Yeah,
I'm glad you're there to correct me, because my phone
would have been a disaster.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I mean, that's confusing Mufasa and Scar. That's like, that's
like Darth Vader versus Luke. I mean, you gotta know
what's what you.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Want to talk.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I know what the woke era is crazy.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Do you remember that they decided it was racist for
a white person to be the voice of a lion
because lions were from Africa. Do you remember this discussion, John,
There was a lot of discussion around the Lion King
because I believe Whoope Goldberg voiced the hyena in The
(16:49):
Lion King and Scar. There was this whole thing a
Scar was played by Jeremy Irons, but they said that
there were people that said that Jeremy Irons that it
was anti lg BTQ because Scar didn't have a female
so Scar was a gay lion. There was all this
like social justice analysis of this. This might have been
(17:09):
the craziest argument out there, and I think it's still
still percolating. Jonathan Taylor Thomas, who was one of the
kids from Home Alone, was the voice of Young Simba, which.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Is Taylor Thomas was in Home Alone. Now did I
say Home Alone? Yes?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Hold on, Jonathan Taylor Thomas Home Improvement. There was one
of the kids from Home Improvement. Yes, my pop culture
bonafides are collapsing here. But he's a young white kid.
He was the voice of Young Simba. They said it
was racist because lions are from Africa to have white
(17:53):
people as the voice for cartoon lions. So when they
have remade the Lion King movies, they have insisted that
only black people can voice the lions because otherwise it
would be cultural appropriation.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
This is one of the craziest things I've ever heard.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
So in theory Buck, this would mean like Kung Fu Panda,
it has to be a Chinese person who is doing
the voice of the panda or else it would be
racist cultural appropriation.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Right.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
You know what's funny is if you had somebody doing
speaking in an English speaking English and having a Chinese accent,
it would be considered the panda.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
That would be super racist, Yes, but to have.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
A white guy speaking just English as a panda also racist.
I'm starting to feel like Clay, no matter what they are,
people gonna say that's kind of racist, but I'm never
even yes, that's one hundred percent the case. But think
about the idea being that the race of the person
who speaks for an animal has to be from the
(18:58):
same place. So if you, for instance, if there's a
tiger like Tony the Tiger back in the day in
Frosted Flakes, if it weren't an Indian guy, it would
be racist. For I mean, this is what they were arguing,
and this is what I was thinking when I went
in and I started to get my tickets for Gladiator too,
