Better Picks Sports just got better International disputes, Inflation, Rising national debt. Just three of the many reasons gold has risen in value over 700% in the last 20 years. Those same reasons are why I'm buying More Gold now from Birch Gold. It's a crucial part of my balance strategy. Birch Gold can help you convert an existing IRA or 401k into an IRA in gold. Just text my name, Buck, to the number 989-898 to receive your free info kit on Gold so you too can have peace of mind. Again, text my name, buck, to the number9898.98 to get the info you need to get started. Welcome in, everybody. Third hour of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show kicks off right now. Just quick recap in case you're joining us. The big news of the day today, the big breaking news is the Attorney General Pam Bondi announcing that they have arrested Zubair Al Bakush, who is in fact a Benghazi terrorist, I guess allegedly because he still has to go through the court process. I doubt he's going to sue me, though, because I think we all know that he's probably, probably the guy if they're, if they're picking him up 13 years later, he's probably the guy. Innocent until proven guilty, but we'll see. So that is something that went on. In fact, you know what? We let's just hear from Pam Bondi on this real quick. This is cut three. Play it. Let this case serve as a reminder. If you commit a crime against the American people anywhere in this world, President Trump's Justice Department will find you. It might not happen overnight, but it will happen. You can run, but you cannot hide. Indeed, indeed. A very powerful statement of the continued focus of this administration on the security of the American people and a willingness to bring justice to those, even if it is years later, bring justice to those who attack Americans and harm our interests as a nation around the world. So that is the big breaking news of the day. Something else that is going on right now, and that is the continuation of this fight over ice. Oh, may I also just say, sorry, we haven't, I haven't talked about. Clay's out today just because he's doing big game stuff because he's out in California where the big game thing is going to be happening. He will be back with us on Monday, of course, and he will be saying, wow, Buck, that's amazing that your beloved Patriots were victorious. But that's all that's coming up on Monday. In the meantime, we haven't talked about this. Nancy Guthrie, Savannah Guthrie's mom who was kidnapped, we don't know a whole lot more. But now there's the New York Post here saying the following camera snatched off Nancy Guthrie's house could have been kidnappers test to see if cops responded, according to crime experts. So authorities are still trying to get this timeline together. There was a 25 minute window between 1:47am Sunday, when the 84 year old's doorbell camera disconnected and then when software data recorded movement on her phone. So something happened. There's some kind of a gap here. Now, if someone's taking the doorbell camera apart. And that to me is an indicator of certainly a degree of premeditation, but also the kind of person who has really thought this thing through. And this was a plot, this wasn't a spur of the moment thing by some, you know, deranged random person in the neighborhood. We don't have much to go on though here. We have very little to work with still. So we're following this. If we obviously get any kind of a big break in the case, we will jump right in with that and tell you what's going on. We hope that Nancy Guthrie's returned safe and unharmed to her family as soon as now taking things to New York City and ice, which is where I was going a moment ago, they are, they are trying to dig in now. They think that they've gotten, if not a victory in Minneapolis. I think they believe the left believes they have something of a stalemate that they have achieved with the Trump administration. And that is encouraging to them. Although Tom Holman has said that there is now unprecedented cooperation underway between immigration enforcement officers and state and local authorities in Minnesota, really Minneapolis, when it comes to illegal immigrants and what they. And they need to deport them, those who are high risk, public safety risks, all of that. Now, Zoran Mamdani, as you know, is the mayor of New York, which is a shame because New York is my hometown and always will be and I still have family there. So I am rooting for New York, even though some of you, I think, watch with a little schadenfreude. Little schadenfreude. That's the word of the day, Team Schadenfreude. It's one of those good long German words that has a very specific meaning that's quite, can be quite useful at the misfortune of New York City because of the politics of a majority of New York residents, or at least those who show up and decided to vote for this guy, which was appalling. New York now has a guy who is saying, Mamdani is saying he assigned an executive order on New York City sanctuary laws to strengthen the sanctions. So he's going in the other direction.
- [08:24]
Clay Travis
Right.
- [08:24]
Buck Sexton
We've heard from Tom Homan in Minneapolis. After all that's gone on, look, we're willing to adjust their tactics There, pull out some of the ICE officers from the surge that we've had there. But we're getting more cooperation. If Tom Holman says it, I believe it. So I'm just going to say this, and I don't think Tom Holman. There are some people on our team who will BS a little bit. There are. Tom Holman is not one of them. And like I said, I've known him for quite some time, you know, been aware of him and interviewed him, all the rest of it. So if he says that's happening, I take him at his word. Meanwhile, in New York City, at an interfaith breakfast, Mamdani has said, well, here he has an executive order does the following. A prohibition on ICE entering New York City property without a judicial warrant. This includes schools, shelters and hospitals. Enhancement of privacy protections to avoid New Yorkers private data from being accessed by the federal government. A public safety audit report submitted to the mayor to ensure that all New York agencies are complying with this and create an interagency committee to coordinate this. Wow. He is. He is doubling down on sanctuary city status right now. President Trump cannot ignore this. ICE cannot ignore. He is. He wants New York to be the next battlefield, if you will, and we say that metaphorically, but he wants New York to be the next battlefield in the immigration enforcement realm. And this administration is going to have to take him at his word. They're going to have to go. They're going to have to go all in. Now, they can't allow this because then you'll have other places that think they can do the same thing. First of all, I don't even know how they think that they can prohibit federal law enforcement from entering city property. Is that even. Is that lawful? Can you do that? So, like, you can say that a federal law enforcement is not able to go inside of a hospital. I don't even know how that look. To me, it seems like all of this stuff is going to have to get slapped down by a judge. New York City is still part of America, and the federal government is still able to send federal officers into places that are generally open to the public. I mean, take, take it this way. Could Mamdani. I mean, let's go. Let's go to the, the logical ends of this. Could Mamdani just say that federal law enforcement's not allowed in New York City, banned from New York City? Because he's basically saying they're banned from all city property and they're not allowed into private property. That's, you know, that's Constitutional, that's well established. We know that they can't just go into your house unless they have a warrant. But now they're banned from public property, in essence, in the city of New York. How is that supposed to work? This is. He's calling down. He's calling down the. The wrath and it must be delivered. There must be a response to this from Trump, from Tom Homan and from others. He also did this, which was getting a lot of attention. He cited Islam as. And his faith, you know, his Islamic faith, as an example of how we should view migrants and migration play the mayor of New York.
- [12:07]
Clay Travis
The story of the Hijra reminds us that Prophet Muhammad was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina. Surah An Nahl 1642 tells us, as for those who immigrated in the cause of Allah after being persecuted, we will surely bless them with a good home in this world. Or as the Prophet Muhammad said, Islam began as something strange and will go back to being strange. So glad tidings to the strangers.
- [12:37]
Buck Sexton
You know, citing Islam as the example of welcoming migrants is interesting because we were talking the other day about stolen land and conquest. A lot of conquests from Islam, a lot of convert. Conversion by the sword going on. Whole part of the world that used to be the Eastern Orthodox Christian empire is now thought of as part of the Islamic world because of war and conquest. Now we don't, you know, you don't see us crying about it. We. You don't see us crying that the most beautiful building in Istanbul was originally a Christian cathedral. You know, they took it. You can say fair and square or not, but they took it. But I think it's fascinating that he thinks that Islam is the greater or even more specifically the life of the. Of the Prophet Muhammad is the example of this. Yes. Muhammad, who was also such a humanitarian that he was known to execute captives from his various raiding and warring practices. So people that were completely defenseless, whatever got to execute them. But he's. You know what ICE is doing, though, enforcing our laws and bringing people through detention back to their home country where they belong. That's really nasty. Muhammad lopping off some heads because people weren't on his team and he captured them. You know, he had to do what he had to do. I don't know. I don't know how much of his own history or the history of Islam Mr. Mamdani actually knows. Man, he really leans into the pronunciation. Does he speak Arabic? Is he. Or is he one of these guys who doesn't speak the Language. But when he says the words, he really wants to sound like he speaks the language because he was, you know. Can we. Can you guys play it again for a sec? I want you guys to hear. This is the mayor of New York city, place where 9, 11 happened. And here's how he's talking about things. Play.
- [14:41]
Clay Travis
The story of the Hijrah reminds us that prophet Muhammad was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina. Surah An Nahl 1642 tells us, as for those who immigrated in the cause of Allah after being persecuted, we will surely bless them with a good home in this world. Or as the prophet Muhammad said, Islam began as something strange and will go back to being strange. So glad tidings to the strangers.

Buck Sexton
Wow. I mean, credit where it's due, apparently Mandani does speak Arabic, so there you go. Or at least some. I wonder how good he is. But some he speaks Hindu, Urdu that I knew, and obviously English and Spanish that I knew. Speaks a little bit of Arabic. But yeah, I think it's interesting that he's citing Islam as like, the welcoming because is the Islamic world really excited to get non Muslims migrating to their countries today? Is that a thing? You know, do you have the Saudis? Like, you know what we could use here? A whole lot more Christians? I'm not even going to get into the whole Jewish thing. We know how that would go. But I don't really think of the Islamic world as the place you want to think of or you want to cite as. Give me. You're tired, you're poor, you're hungry, from very disparate cultures that don't speak our language and don't share our religion. But there we have it. Mamdani. Yeah, he's. The good thing about him is you just know whatever he can do to undermine capitalism, the rule of law, and civilization, he will do. So there you go. It's never a surprise once you understand the nature of Mamdanism. It's just a question of what he's going to say today. But you know where it's coming from. All right, look, I can't think of a more committed nonprofit organization than Preborn than when it comes to saving the lives of unborn children. For 20 years now, they've been at it, and they've been incredibly successful. Last year alone, they saved the lives of 80,000 unborn children. With their efforts and the help of your contributions, individuals like Evie, a young woman who found her way to a preborn clinic only after ending the life of her first child through abortion. But when she found out she was expecting again, she didn't know what to do. She wasn't prepared to become a mother. But her first decision to abort left her with incredible grief. So when she became pregnant that second time, everything was different. She returned to a preborn clinic, and when she saw her baby on ultrasound, she became excited. When she heard that tiny heartbeat, she felt the hand of God pushing her toward life. Those ultrasound experiences make all the difference. An ultrasound machine doesn't just show a picture, it introduces a mother to her child. If you have the means, Please support Preborn $28 is the cost of a single ultrasound experience, which can help save a life today. But any multiple of that number will save perhaps many times more in terms of tiny babies in the womb. $28 $2800 whatever you have the means to donate to Preborn will be used for this incredible mission of saving lives. So with your cell phone, dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby. That's pound 250. Say baby or go to preborn.com buck Sponsored by Preborn Sometimes all you can.

Welcome back in here to Clay and Buck. I want to bring you up to speed. In a couple minutes we're going to get into some political nerd stuff here on a Friday, third hour because you know, Clay's not here. So we can't argue about Taylor Swift today. We all know I'm right, but we can't argue about Taylor Swift because he's not back till Monday. But we can talk about some nerdy political stuff which we will do about the redistricting. Let's do it this way, the way Republicans think of redistricting some places I'm looking at you, Indiana and the way Democrats do and I'm looking at Virginia right now. We're going to talk about that in a minute. But I mentioned this and I like to give little bits of, I don't know, maybe a crude wisdom from either my life or my research or just things that I've seen that I like to share with other people. And I had mentioned the incredible Special Operations patriot DJ Shipley, formerly of DEVGRU SEAL Team 6 and he's got GBRS Group. Now. He's a great guy. I've trained with him before, went out to his facility and but he's the guy that really, I saw this clip and he talks about short walks and if you look at him, I mean he looks like, I mean he looks like a special operations soldier built in a laboratory somewhere. I mean he's, you know, incredible specimen and he's a great guy. And here's how he talks about this. I want you to listen to just going for short walks. Guys. Listen to this. What is a 20 minute walk and why are you doing it? I stole the initial concept from Stan Efforting White Rhino, Big old Yoked up power lifter, bodybuilder. And he would do these 10 minute walks in between meals to help digest his food. And I did it at night and I felt it instantly. I was like, holy. So helps me burn fat, kickstart my metabolism, circadian rhythm lets my body know when the sun's up, when the sun's down, and then when to start powering it down to go to sleep. Gives me a chance to get off my phone the mental health aspect of it. That's why I tagged mental health. Because if you were struggling with right now and you are not doing a 20 minute walk a day, I encourage you to go do one and I encourage you to take a buddy with you. Mental health, physical health, walks, telling you make it a part of your day to day, go for walks. And he also has a different clip where he talks about how helpful it is with your wife or your spouse, but all the same concept, same idea. So you heard it from him. Listen to dj go walk every day.

We spent a moment or two yesterday talking about why bitcoin has been suffering. So look, if you're going to take cash from your savings account and diversify into something that's a safe haven asset, the obvious one to me is gold. I bought a fair amount of gold over the last decade, including just a few weeks ago. Gold has grown in value this past year. Experts see that it continues to be the case, likely to be the case for the years ahead. It's up more than 70% since the beginning of 2025. And over the last 20 years, gold is up a whopping 700%. Price of gold increases as uncertainty increases. And that's going on all over the world because how are places, how are countries going to get out of the debts that they are creating for themselves, including here at home? Well, look, birchgold wants to help. Birch Gold can help you convert an existing IRA or 401k into a gold IRA. You can also just buy gold. Text my Name Buck to 989898 to get your free info kit, text Buck to 9898 98. All right, so generally on this time, on a Friday, I would kick back, relax, talk to you about what I'm gonna watch over the weekend, hang out and everything else. Well, first off, the relaxing thing to tell you about manufacturing delusion, how the left uses brainwashing, indoctrination and propaganda against you as the book suggests, how the left uses brainwashing, indoctrination and propaganda is what I get into here. And I Go through the history of totalitarian mind control over the last hundred years or so and the actual things that they have done to their own populations. And then I go, hey, what are they doing that they did in the Maoist culture revolution or in Stalin Soviet Union or what kind of experiments to train the brain, whether it's Pavlov with the dogs. And I get into that and there's a lot of misconceptions about Pavlov, but I start off with that all the way into jihadists. How do you create, how do you create a pipeline of people that are willing to blow themselves up? How do you get people to become so enamored with a cult leader that they will pay thousands and thousands of dollars for drops of his bathwater, which was a real thing, by the way, in a cult that I talk about in the book. His Bathwater. Yeah, you need to get this book and you need to get the pre orders of it because we, my friends, we're going to reestablish that Conservative books are something that conservatives buy and read. There's been kind of a big dip, honestly, in the last few years in this and even some of the great authors out there have had it. Have had a really hard time getting people to try, try out their books and to get a copy and to read them. So you're going to help me turn that around because this book took basically 18 months for me to write and then the CIA sat on it for, I don't know, five months or something to clear it. And yeah, there's some cool CIA stories in there. It's not about my time to CIA. I was only in for five years, so. But there's some stories, some anecdotes about what I saw there. So please get the book. If you go to clayandbuck.com you can click there and you can get the special bonus. I did a old case officer buddy of mine, we sat down, we talked about MK Ultra. Those you were like MK Ultra, the Bilderbergs, you know, all that stuff. MK Ultra, go check it out. And that's up to clambuck.com so pre order though, arrive when it should ship to you right when the book comes out. So you'll have it on that day and we'll be talking about it there. And yeah, manufacturing delusion. And some of you will probably also know that Manufacturing Consent was a Noam Chomsky book and Noam Chomsky is a vile leftist loon. And this book needs to crush. Needs to crush. This is the real you Know, manufacturing consent. This is a little bit of a extended finger toward that book, if you know what I mean. And this is manufacturing delusion, which is what leftists and communists do. So get your copy. All right, infomercial over. We have something to talk about here. I was in the great state of Indiana not long ago and we were visiting with our friends at WO Woe, a fantastic heritage radio station with a devoted audience of great patriots, many of whom we got to meet that day. But I remember one of the topics from Indiana politics at that time was the. The map. The map and whether Indiana would be willing to pass. Indiana Senate Republicans would pass a mid cycle congressional redistricting map back in 2025, and they refused to do it. They could have eliminated the state's two Democrat held seats. And remember, we're in a very narrowly divided Congress right now. We have a very slight congressional majority here. And so every seat really counts. And we could end up in a situation where after this midterm election, it's a, it's a. Comes down to a couple seats again. So it really does matter. And I just think it's interesting that Indiana state senators. Let me see, like Mike Bohachek, he comes up here this mid cycle gerrymandering, felt like quote, rigging the system and did not align with Indiana's traditional political culture. Did not align with Indiana's traditional political culture. Uh, okay. Okay, guys, do we got it? There's a whole thing here on the right. We talk about know what time it is. Know what time it is when you're dealing with this Democrat Party Indiana Republicans. You failed us. You failed us. And, and if you're wondering why, why I'm saying that now, I would have been saying it then too. Virginia Democrats who have come in just, just communist, guns blazing now that they, they ran this milquetoast cipher of a candidate with Allison. What's, what's her. What's. I don't even remember her name. So boring. She actually was formerly in the agency. What's her name? I don't know. Good Burger? What? Something like Spanberger? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Spanberger. They got Spam Burger in there. And, and she runs. She's like, I'm just a mom and I'm boring. And I'm a moderate because. Because I'm boring. Right? That's the idea. If you're so boring, you can't. How bad can you be if you're that boring? I really think that was a big part of the push. It turns out really bad. You know, it turns out really bad. I mean, I don't know. Was Stalin fun at parties? Probably not, but he was really bad. So now is she as bad as Stalin? Of course not. She doesn't have that much power, so she can't be. But she's in charge now in Virginia and they've just come through with all this legislation that they're going to try to ram through in the Democrat controlled house or Democrat controlled state, state house. All the stuff that you would expect from Democrats, all the, you know, all the rapists, murderers, less time in prison because obviously that's what Democrats think is going to make things better. So like really bad, violent criminals, less time in prison, taxes got to go up, trannying, the kids got to have that estate policy, like all the things. And you go, hold on, I thought, you know, unfortunately there's some people in Virginia maybe weren't paying that close attention. You know, they got used to having a very competent and very solid governor in Youngkin. And governor, Governor Youngkin did a good job and he was a very reasonable guy, super smart guy, you know, kind of, you know, Romney esque, tall, square jaw, the whole thing. But didn't go all left wing like Romney did because of Trump derangement syndrome. And he did a good job. And now they've got somebody in there, they've basically got a Trojan horse, communist. What a shock. Just like we all said they would have. And so they got all these laws now in Virginia. I actually, I'm not even kidding. I had a friend yesterday, the day before, he's asking me for help with real estate in Florida. Hey, where should I live? Where should I look? Because he says, I just. Virginia. I can't do it anymore. Can't do it anymore. Not with this lunatic Democrat running the show. And they're going to jack up my taxes. He's, I'm like, buddy, come on down to Florida. The water is literally pretty warm. So he's going to come join. I think there's others as well. He's a, he's a Trump orbit guy, but I won't get any more specific than that. So now we get to Virginia's and why was I talking about Indiana? I'm weaving, guys, I'm weaving, but I always bring it back all the way here. Talking about Indiana, because in Indiana they're like, we don't want to look too rough on the Republican, on the Democrats. We have a traditional way of doing. You know, they want to take the Ned Flanders approach. Hi, diddly doodly. They want to Be all Ned Flanders and Indiana state, state Senate. Why? Because they think that the other side is going to reward, reward them for their decency. That is always, you're talking about Democrats. That is always a mistake. Do not, do not ever think that when you're in power as a Republican, Democrats will respect the cordial, the cordial outreach from your side. Once they're in power, they're going to put their, they're going to have the purple haired street maniacs, you know, picketing outside your house and throwing bottles of urine at your cops and doing what they always do. They're Democrats. This is who they are. This is, this is who Democrats are, unfortunately. And you see this all over the country. And then we have Virginia. So in Indiana, we can't be, we can't be too harsh. Let's not redistrict and make it benefit Republicans because we want to be nice. That's what this, that's what they said there in Virginia. They are going for the jugular. What a shock. They are trying to put through the most absurd, absurd congressional map you have ever seen. I mean, it'll look like the one in, in Illinois that has the little thing down the center and you're like, oh, ok, so this absurd map and that's, that's going to make it essentially 10 Democrat districts, congressional districts and one Republican district. OK, think about this. Virginia is a purple state. It just had a Republican governor and now the Democrats as the second they get into power in that state, they try and they come into power saying, you know, we're going to be moderate to lower prices, we care about schools and affordability. All nonsense, all nonsense. They're just gonna make all that stuff worse. Meanwhile, they're gonna be trannying your kids and letting the felons out to, you know, rape, loot and pillage more. That's what they're gonna do. That's what they always do. And now we find out, now we find out that the plan is to go 10 to 1, Democrat to Republican with their redistricting map. It's in the court. I know it's, they're gonna be some court stuff fighting about the procedural extension of whether they, you know, there's, there's, there's procedural fighting and you know, I'm not an expert in the parliamentary procedures of every state house and state legislature. So I don't know if it's likely that that will be, you know, that will be a thing that works or not as an objection to this. But I just want to, I Just want to point out in India, a nice solid red Republican state like Indiana, full of patriots, full of good people, full of law abiding Americans who, you know, you'd want as your neighbors and you'd want coaching your son's little league team, all that good stuff. They go Ned Flanders on redistricting. They're like, well, neighbor, we don't want to be too tough on you. So we're going to let the Democrats have their two seats. And Virginia, a purple state. A purple state. Democrats are just trying to just, just go all in and smash the Republican congressional representation in that state. 10 to 1. 10 to 1 in a pretty populous state, by the way, a state that's got a, you know, obviously got a lot of congressional seats in it. So is the lesson learned? When will the lesson be learned here? You know, I, I don't know. I know we could probably get some Indiana state senator calling like, well, just because, just because they do things the communists are mean in Virginia doesn't mean we should be mean in Indiana. I don't know. I think it does. I think you got to figure out what political world you are living in in America today and understand that this isn't just about the state of Indiana. It's about a congressional majority which affects all of us. And if the rules are, and it seems that these are basically the rules, whoever's in charge gets to make the rules about congressional district. Republicans got to play by that same set of rules. Cannot do this. Like, we don't want to be too harsh with the other side. Why? They hate you. They want. They want. If they could make the Republican Party illegal, they would do it. Remember this. The extent of Democrat destruction and devastation in this country is just limited by the power they have to do it. If they had more power, they'd do even worse stuff to us. Thankfully they're, you know, roughly half the country, a little more, a little less. And so they can't just get away with whatever, but if they could, they absolutely, absolutely would. And so I think that that should be in the minds of anybody who wants to take the gentlemanly approach to dealing with that Democrat Party. Do you have the Prize picks app on your phone by any chance?

Welcome back into Clay and Buck. We are closing up for the weekend and I hope you have a great one. Some of you may be watching some sports ball on the weekend. I might even watch a little sports ball. I don't know. It's possible. We'll see. It's also just fun to hang out with baby Speed and Ginger Spice. Ginger Spice, I will tell you, got a haircut today and a shampoo. So she is so fresh, so clean. She's very cute. Maybe I'll post some photos up on the Instagram and then you can check it out on Clay and buck dot com. But yeah, there might be some sports ball. A lot of people will be turning that stuff on. We'll see. I didn't. I didn't. I haven't heard any reference to Mr. Pickles in a while, so it makes me a little Sad. I assumed Mr. Pickles would be in the final games. We have Wally the truck driver who listens on 710 WO R. He has sent us a talk back. Let's hear from Wally. This is c. Okay, Buck. My name's Wally. I'm an over the road truck driver and I'm here to. I'm here to protest ice and snow and cold because I hate winter. That's fair. Protesting ice on the roads. I get protesting ice in our communities enforcing laws that I do not like. But yes, icy roads, very bad, very tough, can be very slick and cause problems for you there. It has been so cold here in Miami for a while now that there have been these iguana icicles. They fall from the trees because as you know, iguanas are a reptile and they can't really regulate body temperature internally. So if it gets too cold, they kind of just shut down. They don't die from understand. It's almost like they go into a comatose state and I don't know, apparently you can pick them up and just, you know, take a bite and they're kind of crunchy. I'm just kidding. You don't do that. That would be gross. I think it would be gross. Some people do eat them. I think there were pets that were brought here too. They're not indigenous to. To Florida. So take that as you. As you. As you will, unnamed Milwaukee listener. Well, that sounds interesting. Here's Cut or here's talkback D. Let's hit it. Who does this guy Clay Travis think he is? You know, he thinks he can swim from Alcatraz to the mainland like it's some kiddie pool in between challenging Bo Jackson to a 50 yard dash and the arm wrestle. I mean, he probably thinks he can join every event in the Olympics and sweep everyone with gold medals, for Christ's sakes. I think we need Bo and Riley to put Clay in his place. I'll let. I'll let Clay respond to that one if he wants, when he gets back. But he knows he's a weekend warrior, too. And if he does do the. The alcohol Alcatraz swim, I have promised him that I will not, on a Bluetooth speaker play the theme song to Jaws the whole time that he's swimming right next to him in the launch boat. I'm not going to do that because you know what I mean? That. That wouldn't be. It's not nice. It's not nice. We wouldn't do that. I want you all to have a fantastic weekend. If you've got some time, go check out the Clam Buck podcast Network. Download the iHeart app to do that. Great shows there. Carol Markowitz, Tudor Dixon, our friend Dave Rutherford, Ryan Gardusky, Lisa Booth, so many others as well. Go check out that podcast network. You will love it. Enjoy the game. If you are to watch the game, enjoy the Buffalo chicken wings if that is your favorite. I may have some pistachio ice cream. I might even celebrate the sports ball game with some pistachio creme brulee. I don't know. I don't know if I'll have enough time. We'll see.
