0:35All right, guys, I'm Dave Rubin. This is The Rubin Report. It's October 31st, 2025. That's right, it's Halloween, and I am alternate Dave Rubin in a shirt like you've never seen me in before. And joining me are the hosts of the Clay and Buck Show, Clay Buxton and Buck Travis. that's the halloween twist here guys i've combined you into two alternate people who will be half of each other how do you feel about that clay seems happier about that than buck buck does not seem happy about that clay you can roll with this sort of thing well i just think it sounds creepy um but it does tie in since you're gay and bucks a fan of polish sausages there's no telling where this show might go uh for the record i'm only gay after 8 p.m we're shooting this uh earlier than that buck do you have any comments before we dive in i have been called i have been called tug sex butt by keith olberman so nothing you say to me i'm rubber and you're glue my friend has anyone anyone else on the internet not been attacked by keith olberman i feel like that's just like a standard thing like if you're going to be anyone on the sad old lesbian it's so disappointing to see what he's become he really is he really is all right well basically we're just going to have some fun for about 45 minutes, get caught up on a couple of the crazy things that happened this week.
1:54We're not diving into anything too serious. So why don't we just get right into it? So Kamala Harris, a woman who had a soft coup of the sitting president, who, yes, we know she's black and female. She likes concentric circles, Ukraine, small Russia, big, et cetera, et cetera. She's got this book out that, yes, she clearly wrote. OK. And she's doing a press tour about the book. And a lot of the questions have come around Biden's cognitive ability and when she knew and why she didn't call it out earlier. And I thought this clip was just great. This is a journalist by the name of Sarah Ferguson from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation really pushing Kamala on Biden's decline.
2:33Wasn't Joe Biden then to put it on him? Wasn't his refusal to recognize his own frailties the reason that you faced a nearly impossible task? I ran against Donald Trump for president. That is a world-class pivot, but it is not the question that I asked you, which is about Joe Biden's failure to recognize his own frailties and what that did to you. The question is about Joe Biden. Are you still reluctant to criticize the former president? In what regard, please? Well, just in terms of that question. So you went on. What exactly would you like to ask? Be more specific, if you don't mind. Was it Joe Biden's decision, his failure to recognize his own frailties in that position that put you in the position that made it almost impossible to win that race?
3:19He was not frail as president of the United States. But he had frailties. We all saw the debate. I do believe that Joe Biden had the capacity to be president of the United States. I mean, talk about a slow moving train wreck. Buck, what do you think her angle is here? I mean, I get it. They were all part of the cover up and then they can't exactly admit it. You know, it's sort of like Jake Tapper's book and Cringe on Pierre's book. And there'll be many other books from these people. But it seems so disconnected from reality. And now her attitude about it seems like it's making it just that much worse.
3:55Well, Dave, you didn't know this before you had the two of us on, but you have stepped right into the middle of a live fire training exercise here. or perhaps even the battlefield between Clay Travis and myself, because we have a bet, a very expensive stake bet, because you know how expensive it is down here in Miami, when it comes to whether Kamala will even be able to run. We agree that she will not be the nominee. That's just, there's just no way. I don't even think she's going to run. I think she's going to become the provost of, as I've said, a third-tier UC school, and then Clay likes to throw some random UC school under the bus, depends on the day.
4:33um but so we're already preparing for i think uh the recognition among the kamala faithful that she's a disaster wait so to be clear the the bet is you're saying she will not run at all and clay is saying she will run i'm saying she won't even run and clay is saying and i think it's unfair because like she's probably gonna end up running for six weeks or something and he'll say i win but clay is saying oh no she's gonna run because she has nothing else in her life she has an empty soul and no children and you know that's that's where clay goes with this uh so here's just on that clip she's trying to oh i read her book by the way again because my esteemed co-host there i told them that i'd become our show's comologist and so i read her book i was on a flight to taiwan i did i did also read the jake tapper book so occasionally i'll take bullets but buck took the kamala shot so we traded off he read the tapper book which was just preposterous yeah And I read the Kamala book, which was just like two grade levels lower than the Jake Tapper book from the excerpts that I saw.
5:37And here's the problem. She can't have it all the various ways she wants to. She either got screwed over by Biden staying in because she hit his dementia or not, or rather they hit his dementia. And if that's the case, she more than anyone else is responsible for hiding his dementia. So either she has to admit I'm a crap candidate and it's not Joe Biden's fault, or it wasn't my fault, but I helped hide his dementia, in which case it is my fault. Wow. Well, first off, let me just say, although Clay and I usually line up on most of these things when I see him make predictions, I'm pretty much right there with him.
6:13I'm with you on this one, Buck. I don't think she's going to run. I think it doesn't make any sense. I don't think there's any momentum there. And we're going to get into Gavin and some of the other things. But so that'll be my position. If you want, I can throw in. I'll cook you both the steak on that one. How about that? Well, we want some of your fancy ass tequila if that's okay. All right. There we go. That's easy. That's easy. Clay, just this to do these interviews. I mean, we're watching this. We watched this with Tapper a couple months ago, just get crushed in all of his interviews around his book.
6:40We watched this two weeks ago with Corinne Jean-Pierre just get crushed on all this. And now watching her get crushed on all this, do they not realize what they are walking into? I think it's her attempt to put it behind her. That's my theory on what she's trying to do with this book. It's to say, hey, that was Biden 1.0. Now I can be Kamala in full. I'm not signing on to this at all, but I think she's going to say, hey, I was the good soldier. I think this will be her argument when she runs. She will say, I was defending the record of Joe Biden because that's what a vice president does. I was too loyal.
7:20I was probably too loyal here. And I think what she's trying to do is argue two things that are very difficult. One, that he was okay for the first term. And now if you watch the way that she's pivoting, it's that, well, maybe he didn't have the ability to serve out the second term. And she's trying to say, I should have been more aggressive, but I think she's going to say, doggone it. I was just too loyal because the job of a vice president is to stand behind the president. I think in order to win, she had to burn the bridges in that 2024 campaign. I think she had to say, look, we're in a tough spot because Joe Biden held on too long and I will do a lot of things different.
8:05I thought that's where she got in trouble in the view answer when she said, well, there's not a thing that comes to mind. I think she had to argue that she was different than Biden. So far, she hasn't. I think 2028 Kamala, when they get all the advisors together and they come up with the McKinsey relaunch plan, will be that Kamala can now say what she truly believes because she's not trying to advocate for Joe Biden anymore. So I think this is about putting that behind her. And born is a new Kamala, the truth telling Kamala. I look forward to seeing who wins the stake here. But either way, it's just no matter who it is, it's such a freaking clown car for them.
8:43It's ridiculous, which is a perfect segue to Gavin Newsom, who will certainly be in that clown car. And he's making the rounds this week. And listen to him running cover for Biden. I just don't get it.
8:53Gavin Newsom:And we'll continue to build on the legacy, I would argue, of our former president, who I think was one of the most successful presidents in the last century. And that is Joe Biden. And I will defend that to my grave in terms of the Chips and Science Act, the infrastructure bill, the work he did on the IRA, the fact that he had a worker-centered industrial policy and the fact that those are the right policies for this country. They're all getting undone, right? I mean, everything. A lot of them, but not, well, many aspects are being celebrated by the Trump administration. Buck, everybody knows my feelings about Gavin Newsom, who on this Halloween probably gets to actually just go out as himself and scare children.
9:32Why? What where's the win in doing that for him? Oh, I think this is this is peak Newsom in the shamelessness of the maneuver here, because what he's doing, Dave, is essentially pandering to the entire Democrat electorate in one fell swoop. And here's why he can get away with it. He wasn't in the Biden White House. He wasn't part of the dementia cover up or any of that other stuff. He was just busy running the great state of California, which has a really big economy and all this other stuff that he always talks about as if he's somehow responsible for it. So this gives a very clear, emotionally sensitive pathway for all those disappointed Biden voters to you.
10:17You voted for the great policies and I, Gavin Newsom, with my shirt unbuttoned down to my navel. I will give you those policies. But without the dementia that I had no part of whatsoever in the cover up of, unlike basically all the other clowns who think they're going to run because they were up on Capitol Hill, even senators, even members of Congress that they think they're going to run. They were much closer to Biden than Gavin Newsom. So that, I think, is is the clear maneuver here. And it's just the most perfect Gavin Newsom thing. I mean, the guy is we like to call him oleaginous because it's both word of the day and very accurate.
10:53Clay, take a look at this next clip from the same interview with Jonathan Karl. I'm shocked that he did this. He actually did the thing we all do on the internet, which is point out that Gavin Newsom is Patrick Bateman from American Psycho. You make up all the Patrick Bateman talk. I don't know, but...
11:13Gavin Newsom:I mean, people say that you are like American Psycho. Yeah, yeah. Like I said, new scum. I mean, look... But even your friends, like, say this. Oh, do they? Yeah. I'm going to reevaluate my guest list. I mean, there was a comedian that said a literal comic book villain from Central Casting, Patrick Bateman vibes. He definitely had someone killed or may have killed someone himself. I think he meant that in a... I'm glad I still have some humor left. I mean, this is a rough business. Yeah, it is. This is a rough business, particularly if you're willing to fight. I'm not kidding. I think that quote might be for me.
11:47I've definitely said plenty of things like that. But the fact that he did that to his face, and again, he can't even be, it's just everything with him. He's so fucking evil. It's a Friday. I can do it once. But I think it's kind of likable. I mean, you know, when you consider, when you consider the depths of Democrat despair of the available guys out there, if you told me, let's just think about it this way. If I told you, you have to go have a beer and watch a game with somebody who's going to run for president as a Democrat, J.B. Pritzker, Kamala Harris, AOC, Cory fucking Booker. I mean, you start running through this list.
12:29This is a miserable cavalcade of Eric Swalwell. I mean, I can't think of anyone that I would less rather hang out with in life. And then I get Gavin Newsom and Buck makes fun of this sometimes. But I don't think, you know, you have a glass of wine and you kick back in Napa with Gavin compared to the other options. I think he would actually be somewhat entertaining. Now, is he an awful, irredeemable liar? Of course. Is he have no soul? Yes. But might he say something that would make me laugh? Yes. I can't really imagine any of the other Democrats in any way being enjoyable to have a drink with.
13:09Does that make sense? And I'm not saying that I would enjoy it. I'm just saying if I had to draft somebody, I think he would be there. I mean, Katie Porter. Look at the other Adam Schiff, the other California Democrats. Like, he's not that bad compared to them. I'm glad that that Clay called himself out here, Dave, and threw himself under the bus on this one, because there's a not small contingent of our audience that worries that Clay perhaps steals off to Napa Valley. there's some chardonnay with his buddy gavin newsom you know two suave guys with great hair and city wives who just happen to disagree on politics but love to pick out the notes of black cherry and and cardamom in in their vintages so the audience the clay and gavin show now that's scary yeah it's definitely a bigger newsom fan uh than you might anticipate uh but i i do think Look, I think he's the inevitable.
14:08This is when we actually agree on. I think he's the inevitable Democrat nominee. And I think AOC becomes his vice. And I think that's just the Democrat ticket. I know it's actually not that far out, as we know, it's going to really be determined in about 18 months. So it's not a crazy far out prediction. I just see that that's the way it's going to go, largely because of what Clay said. Yeah, sure. You know, the Democrat Party, you know, you could you could start to throw some names around. But when you start looking at name recognition, you start looking at just completely an irrepressible urge to lie for power and gain.
14:41Gavin Newsom is the best they've got. I mean, Kamala is not even a good liar. Right, right. I will give him that. He is a better liar, even though the internet endlessly debunks all of his nonsense. But my God, man, what a depressing future that is if it's him and AOC. But Buck, I know you're a, I read this somewhere on the internet, you're a body language expert. And I want you to take a look at this clip and note his hand motions. Can you help me work through this?
15:07Gavin Newsom:I don't think he takes himself seriously, but he iterates. He throws things out and he plays with it and he sees how people react and it manifests, meaning once a mind is stretched, it never goes back to its original form. And that's my concern. The more we're talking about this and we need to be, look at what he's doing with mass agents. Look what he's doing federalizing the guard. Look what he's doing intimidate and voter suppression. That's what he's going to do with the DOJ. Look what he's trying to do to rig the elections, North Carolina, Missouri, down there next Florida, not just in Texas.
15:41Gavin Newsom:Look what he's doing in terms of the 230 million that it apparently is from his DOJ. All the pardoning, all this great grift, the biggest, most corrupt administration in history. Buck, I didn't even hear anything he said there. I'm just transfixed by the hand motions. He's sort of Tom Cruise in Minority Report moving the screens around. What is wrong with this person? Well, I was honestly distracted by the hint of man cleavage that he had going there. He's just so darn handsome like patrick like patrick bateman uh he's kind of a malugian as we say on the clay and buck show because bill malugian is just so damn everyone loves malugian he's dreamy yeah he's a dreamy guy so i i think uh what you're seeing with newson with the hand gestures obviously it's very studied it's very uh poll tested and political consultant uh approved and that's that's what you're going to get with a guy who this is what he's all about.
16:35I will say this. There are some people who, whether it's Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, whatever you think of their shamelessness, their beliefs, everything else, they are obsessed with the idea of being the person in the job. They are obsessed with it. And you actually need to be at some level in this game now. I think it has to be really an unhealthy level of like, I'm the only person who can do this. And Gavin Newsom definitely thinks that. What's interesting, though, what's interesting, though, is if you watch Trump in the 80s, he's like, I want anyone else to do it. But if no one else will do it, I will do it.
17:13That's a fundamental difference. But Clay, the one line that I got there was once a mind is stretched, it never goes back. Can you help me work through that one? I don't I was trying to figure out what exactly that means. And I would think that you would want a stretched mind as opposed to an unstretched mind. I mean, I'm not an expert on the stretched mind, but the smaller mind, as opposed to a larger mind in general, I think most people would prefer the larger mind. Um, look, this guy we played, uh, on our show, he's now saying that Charlie Kirk, his son was not a fan of the only reason he had Charlie Kirk on as his first guest.
17:52He said was because his son was a fan, a super fan. He said super fan. Yeah, super fan. There is a level of lying that Gavin Newsom is comfortable doing that I think is going to serve him well in the Democrat Party. Because once you get into a general election, you can't in any way be in favor of many of the things that require you to be in favor of to become the nominee. And I think we just have to prepare ourselves. He's just going to lie and say he never said that. There's going to be ample evidence of him ever saying it. And my prediction is, guys, he's just going to say, you can't trust Republicans because they're using AI to make us believe things that are no longer true, right?
18:32Like he'll, and by the way, that's a good excuse for everybody going forward for any time they don't. But, but I do think that's the world that we have to prepare ourselves for. And the battle probably against J.D. Vance, I don't think that Newsom is a low intellect guy. I don't think Kamala is that smart. There's lots of people that have been, I don't think Biden was particularly that smart. I think that Newsom will be a more sophisticated adversary and a more talented adversary than anyone else the Democrats can put forward, which is why I think ultimately he will be their selection. Right. I mean, I will go with you on that.
19:07Like his ability to have no shame. If you guys, I'm sure, watch that debate he had with DeSantis two years ago. And DeSantis just beat him relentlessly over and over. and he just, he doesn't take a hit. He just keeps going and going and going. Yeah. I guess that's, yeah. Sometimes sociopathy is your friend. And for Gavin Newsom, that's definitely the case. And that's why the Patrick Bateman thing, I think, other than the physical resemblance, sticks with so many people because he seems like he's that way. I just say one thing, Dave. He also, you're going to hear people that talk about Westmore out of Maryland and you're going to hear people talk about Bashir out of Kentucky.
19:42You know, Clay knows that whole situation really well. That's actually not what the Democrats, The Democrats need somebody who can pull the Obama of, I'm going to say things to win the election that everyone on the left knows I don't actually believe. And they're OK with me saying it at election time because they know when I'm in power, I'm just going to forget all about that. And that is quintessential Gavin Newsom. Right. He's the perfect vessel for that. And then God bringing AOC behind him. It's gold has officially gone mainstream. Every day, more and more Americans are discovering the power of gold.

Let's keep going with some of the craziness out of the Democrats, actually, because the auto pen, which apparently was actually the president, is making some new news. Listen to this from CNN. GOP-led oversight committee says Biden pardons signed by Autopen are void in final report. The committee deems void President Biden's executive actions that were signed using the Autopen, and the committee determines that action by the Department of Justice is warranted to address the legal consequences of that determination.
21:29It wrote to Pam Bondi in the letter released Tuesday morning. It alleged the committee had found a cover-up of the president's cognitive decline and no record demonstrating Biden himself made all the executive decisions that were attributed to him. So, Clay, this is one of those things that, yeah, we all kind of know is true. Anyone that was paying attention during the presidency, we all knew this was happening. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Okay, a House Oversight Committee said it. I don't think anything comes of this. Does anything actually come of this? Does anyone end up in jail? Does anyone get a slap on the wrist?
21:59Does anyone reverse any of the Biden executive actions, et cetera, et cetera? Yeah, somebody would have to challenge it, first of all, and say that these pardons and other executive actions were not authorized. And then a judge would have to look at it. It would go a long way. What I think is kind of prima facie evidence of the fact that all of this is true, he hand signed the Hunter Biden. Right, right. That's the one. Right. So the ones that he actually really desperately personally cared about, he took the time to sign. You've done a lot of books. Buck's got a book coming out. I'm signing this weekend a ton of different books.
22:37The whole argument that it's super hard to sign the pardons, I don't even buy, right? I mean, you can sit and watch a game and just mindlessly click through with all of these signatures without needing an auto pen. Look, I get the idea of an auto pen when it's a constituent letter and you're sending out a million of them or something and you want to make it look like you were involved. But the argument that he didn't have the time to actually sign legitimate pardons, I've always found on its face to be a dishonest argument. Now, will anything come of it? I'm skeptical that there will be a sophisticated and significant enough legal challenge to actually strip it in this scenario.
23:20Buck, is that the problem with everything, basically, that no matter how egregious the problem is, like, for example, finding out that the president of the United States didn't even know what his auto pen was signing, that nobody ever pays the price or the few times that anyone pays a price, it's usually the wrong person for the wrong reasons. well yeah i mean yes i i agree that uh there's not going to be anyone going to prison over this or anything like that i think that it is important for the sake of transparency and also politically people should know that when those like the three of us uh those those of us who for years were saying biden's not really calling the shots it's the people around him that wasn't just some rhetorical game we were playing it was an observation of what was clearly going on in that White House.
24:05So we were telling the truth about something that seemed farcical or fantastical at the time, but was, like I said, an observation. It was what was really happening. One of the challenges that you see with a lot of the, whether it's Russia collusion stuff, this stuff, you know, that all the deep state machinations is that when people have power and a lot of discretion in the government saying, oh, sorry, I'm just a moron is often legally, you know, saying, oh, I actually believed that this is what's going on, right? So, you know, if you roll into someone's house in like a swatting incident, for example, if law enforcement rolls in, guns blazing, and you say, hold on a second, how could you have believed this guy who called in from like a number in Islamabad and suddenly now some like conservative podcaster is like a, well, if they're so stupid to believe that, they're probably not going to be criminally charged, right?
24:58But this is what I mean within the government. There's a lot of ways that you You can do really bad things, abuse your authority, pull subpoenas that there's not a statutory remedy for. There's only or, you know, a prosecutorial remedy for. There's only political, which is why, again, I think it's important they talk about this. But no one's going to prison over this. Well, there is also a media that will run cover for you the entire time. And it would not be a Halloween episode of The Rubin Report if we didn't show you a clip of The View. It's kind of crazy. You know, I kind of agree with him.
25:29Instead of investigating a man who is no longer in office, I would like you all to find out why the U.S. military is striking vessels without verifying who's in them. Yeah. I want the government shut down to figure out what's going on because it's getting ready to be the longest one in history. Snap benefits are about to run out. Soybean farmers in financial crisis. And, of course, there is the unreleased Epstein files. Yes. All right. So, Clay, of course, she's running cover for the auto pen situation. But I think what's more interesting about that clip is that she's reading everything she said right there.
Read the full transcript
26:08We do hours. We do hours on air. You guys. What do you guys do about soybean farming? Soybean farmers? Whoopi's crying for soybean? She doesn't even know where the soybean farmers live. Which, by the way, Trump just signed a major deal with China related to soybean. But putting that aside, the fact that she's reading all of that really in such an obvious manner, you know, she usually fakes it a little bit better or maybe the prompter is a little bit better, but that she's looking she's pretending to be outraged, but she has to look down and read to figure out what she's outraged about. Isn't that a perfect summation for what television has become?
26:41It's also why they won't have actual guests to debate actual issues on that program, because they don't actually do the work. And to me, that was you mentioned that debate between Gavin Newsom and Ron DeSantis. What really stood out to me was the degree to which Gavin Newsom is protected by media such that he's not prepared when anybody pushes back against him. And I do think that's part of why legacy media and also the Democrat Party, which is upheld by legacy media, has been losing so much in the marketplace of ideas because their arguments are flabby and don't require very much pushback to defeat.
27:25They're like a boxer that doesn't actually ever get in the ring and spar. And then suddenly when you take a punch, you don't know how to handle it. And so the result is you're trying to protect your side from having its opinion challenged. There's a lot of people out there who could agree or disagree with everything that we argue. I think we could probably on this program all argue the other side better because we've done the research and we've spent the time on the issues. There's almost no one on the left who could argue our side because they're not even familiar with that argument. Yeah, that's a great point.
27:56And we'll have more on that that concept in just a second about how they really are a bunch of boxers who never spar and never get a competitor that's worthy. but Buck I mean also there's there's a general take from that show and the way they do everything that they just don't know what they're saying they they don't know it's not that the politicians don't know they can like their politicians don't know that's one thing but also they don't know that's like a lot yeah well Dave to be fair low IQ people need their pundits too right I mean You look at the show, and if you're going to be – or low information, I guess we could say low information voters want to be a little more charitable.
28:37But those things, I think in this case, are pretty synonymous. The view is meant to be an emotional safe space for people who have feelings about politics but don't actually spend the time to know anything about any of the issues. And to the point about not being able to make the case, the people on the view can't make the case. Right. And I think that the only authenticity that they can offer that audience is the shared ignorance that they all have. So while they're paid millions of dollars to know something, at least they make the people who aren't doing that at home feel good because, wow, Whoopi and Joy and the other chicks at that table.
29:14I don't know who they are. Oh, wait, who's the really mean one? Oh, Sonny Hoskins. Sonny Hoskins. Thank you. Yeah. By the way, how about the fact that we all know when he says the mean one? We're all like, oh, yeah, she's so bitter. well she's the most i mean she is just the classic like most bitter and by the way elissa farr griffin is the pretty one she's the pet republican they give her a cookie on a friday she's she's uh she's not so bad the other thing i think that's that's here too buck and you know is they have huge staffs so it's a willful ignorance you know it's not just that they won't do the work it's that they won't let the staff do the work for them right actually inform i think that's a great point because that's what I mean by when Whoopi's looking down.
29:54Imagine the three of us. We're on air hours a day. Imagine having to fake your emotion because you have to read what you're angry about. That's the, it's just beyond the pale. But let's jump over to something else in legacy media because there's basically one guy in legacy media who's fighting the good fight. You already know who I'm talking about. It's Scott Jennings over at CNN. And here he is getting into it with another panelist about this Biden cognitive issue. And he was, I think we all acknowledge and the reporting is very clear. in severe cognitive decline. And so the committee had... I don't agree with that.
30:24The committee... You don't agree he was in cognitive decline? I do not, because there's no medical evidence to say that. Now, that's a political talking point for some of you on the right, but there's no evidence to point to that. Dr. Scott. Do you know... Dr. Scott, do you have evidence to point to that? Do you know why the president's physician took the Fifth Amendment before the committee? No, the same reason why Republicans have taken the Fifth Amendment under oath for the committee. If you're here to argue the sharpness of Joe Biden, I commend you on your effort. I'm not here to argue that.
30:51I'm just saying there's no medical evidence to point there was some cognitive decline. Do you have eyes and ears? I think you do. I do. Okay. The same eyes and ears that saw that this president prevented a government shutdown during his time. We talked about the bipartisan legislative agenda that he put together. So I do have eyes and ears, and you do too. Buck, the apparent evidence that cognitive decline was not part of Biden's melting brain is that he prevented a government shutdown. Help me work through that one. I got to say, I love that the Democrats shoved Biden out the window, essentially, in the White House, like just threw him on to the South Lawn and said, you're not president or you're not the nominee anymore.
31:32And we're still having this debate. I mean, this is, it's a little bit like when Democrats do that thing, because Clay and I will talk sometimes about the sports stuff, including 200 pound man with like, you know, more robust beard than I, or than any three of us, quite honestly, we're all kind of like the, the, the little beard category. and we'll be throwing around a bunch of girls on the field hockey field and they'll be saying, what are you, a biologist? It's like, no, but I know what a 200-pound dude looks like. I don't think I have to be a biologist, but they'll actually use that as a talking point.
32:07The same thing here. There's no medical evidence of the fact the Democrat Party defenestrated a sitting president from his campaign two or three, whatever, three months before the election because his brain was scrambled eggs. I think that's all the evidence a normal person would need. Scott Jennings, very patient there. Clay, I know you like a good conspiracy theory. How about this one? Maybe the people of CNN are actually on our side and that's why they put these dingbats on with Scott. I mean, I was rolling my eyes watching that. I legitimately wonder who the audience is that is consuming this content.
32:47There's tons of actual medical evidence, by the way. I mean, I thought Scott Jennings could have pushed back. Like, we don't have to be doctors to think that something could be wrong on an evidentiary basis. If your grandpa suddenly can't remember your name, that's evidence that he might have a dementia-related issue. You're not a doctor, but you can see that. Anybody who watched the June 27th debate—and oh, by the way, we talked about this on the program the other day because I thought it was a good question for Corrine Jean-Pierre as part of her disastrous book tour. Has she ever apologized to Robert Hur?
33:22Robert Hur sat across from Joe Biden for hours quizzing him on the classified documents that he got. The only reason he said there was not going to be a prosecution was because based on his observation, a jury would find Biden to be old, befuddled, and incapable of committing a crime because his brain didn't work well enough. That's all evidence. One of my favorite analogies quickly is circumstantial evidence. People say, oh, circumstantial evidence is awful. It's actually oftentimes some of the most important. You go to bed at night and when you went to bed, there was no snow on the ground and you wake up and there's snow on the ground.
33:59The fact that it snowed overnight is circumstantial, right? Because you didn't see it yourself, but it's pretty strong evidence that the snow came down, right? And so there was tons of circumstantial medical evidence that Biden was incapable, to Buck's point, Democrats kicked him out of the nomination because of it. People watch too much Law & Order. When the defense says, that's circumstantial, whatever. Yeah, a lot of people are in prison for life because of circumstantial evidence, everybody. Right. Yeah. Exactly. It could actually be really the most perfect evidence, especially when you add it all up together and look at it in totality.
34:32What's the reverse of circumstantial evidence? What's hardcore evidence? Eyewitness. Eyewitness. All right. Eyewitness. Well, I'm going to throw to a balance of nature ad, and then we're going to have some eyewitness evidence that the left does not know how to podcast. If you're looking for an easy way to get more fruits and vegetables into your day, Balance of Nature fruit and veggie supplements can make it simple.

That's balanceofnature.com, code RUBEN. So, it's interesting, because Clay, you mentioned a few minutes ago that there sort of is no equivalent on the left of what's happening on the right in the online space.
35:40And, you know, the left has owned everything in the mainstream media for so long. They've become soft on all of this stuff. And I'm always, really, and I'm sure you guys are too, and maybe you know some, I'm always trying to find kind of the equivalent of us on the left to have a debate with or go on the show with, you know, but we always end up with just the, kind of the worst of the worst. So there's this girl, and I know I'm giving her exactly what she wants right now by talking about her on the show. Her name is Jennifer Welch, and she is a lefty podcaster. Apparently, she was a reality TV person on a show called Sweet Home Interior Design, something like that.
36:14But she's now a lefty podcaster. And because it's so hard to find some of these people that are willing to engage, I want to just show you a little bit of what is going on on these shows. Because here she is going after all of our friend Riley Gaines, who has done nothing other than stand up for women and women's sports. One thing I want to say about Riley Gaines, as she sits there and has the moral high ground against AOC, when I look at people, if I were to say who's more Christ-like, I would pick AOC and the atheist Jew Bernie Sanders and the Muslim Zoran Mamdani a million times over you, Riley Gaines, because Riley Gaines, all you do is hate on people.
36:56You are wound up like a cheap clock over trans people. You show them no grace, no compassion. You defend billionaires. You cheer and celebrate when children are zip tied. And then you have the audacity to get on television and try to lecture people who fight for the people that are suffering, that stand and put their arms around people that need sanctuary. and you try to act like you're better than they are, you're an insufferable twat. Nobody likes you. Nobody likes you except for the other fake Christians that enjoy in their spare time watching children get zip tied and then sit there and justify it while they read the Bible with their hideous crucifixes around their necks.
37:49So you, Riley Gaines. Clay, like, that's what's going on in the lefty podcast space. Like, we cannot find better versions of that. I mean, and just all of the stuff she said about Riley is just so profoundly, profoundly absurd. Yeah, we talked about this on the show, Buck and I did, and we brought Riley on earlier this week before this one because AOC out of nowhere kind of came in like Simone Biles did and just attacked her. And I told Riley this. I mean, I would love to get attacked like this because what it represents is how effective she's been. And the reason she's been effective is one of their top arguments is I don't know why you care.
38:29Right. I don't know why you care. Uh, well, Riley cares because she had to swim against the dude tucking his cock and balls into a women's swimsuit and pretending that he was in fact a chick. And they gave him a women's NCAA championship at the swimming, uh, meet that she was in a couple of years ago. And look, I think that they are losing culturally, and so they go directly to nasty attacks. And I think these things get ended really rapidly. But everybody would say a 16-year-old playing 12-year-old Little League baseball shouldn't be able to do it. Because to Buck's point earlier, we can just see with our own eyes that somebody who is 12 is different than somebody who's 16.
39:10And somebody who's gone through puberty and dominating little kids shouldn't be able to compete. Well, a man shouldn't be able to compete in women's sports. And I don't think they have a good answer for it. And so now they're just going directly to derogatory personal attacks because Riley's story is so powerful. And I think it's a sign of the culture shifting in our wins. Buck, let me read Riley's response to that clip right there. She said, they say these things about me merely because I said men are not women. That's it. If you share that belief, they think the same thing about you. Such harsh words, praying for these women.
39:43What do you think about just sort of the general notion here of the lefty podcast space? Like, am I not giving the devil his due here? Is there a do you know of a rich tapestry of people that will engage with ideas and maybe offer us a bit more? We're going to show one more clip of Jennifer Welch. But is there am I missing something here? No. And this is the result of the ecosystem in the media that we all we all came up in. Right, Dave? I mean, you there. There was a time when there were like a handful of online written publications. There was Fox News, maybe a few jobs in talk radio or local radio.
40:22I mean, in the pre-podcast era. And you had all these left-wing outlets to the point where, I mean, you could get fired from HuffPo and get hired by the New Yorker and go from CNN to MSNBC to PBS to ABC. See, like they had all of this control of the media ecosystem and they were able to largely insulate themselves from the skill set that we're just talking about, which is understanding the issues and having to be or being able to make the argument for your side. So they kind of just got intellectually fat and lazy on all this stuff and they have not been sharpening their minds or their skill set.
41:03And so that's why when the internet opened up a bit and we got shows like yours and YouTube and Elon bought X, I mean, already Twitter was useful. But once X happened, you'll notice. Clay and I was joking about this. I never get piled on anymore. Like I never have some random CNN anchor who all of a sudden is getting like a million people agreeing with him saying how dumb I am. And, you know, that is a result entirely of the playing field not being tilted in their favor. So, you know, I think that we're going to see more and more of this. I would love it if there were left wing outlets that were worth going on.
41:41Like if Maddow wanted to have me on to actually have a discussion in primetime on MSNBC. But here's the other problem, Dave. The left and you know this and Clay knows this. The left has trained their audience that they should not even be subjected to the real argument from the other side, which is why the only people you see as conservatives on MSNBC. or the pretty one from The View are people who are fake Republicans who have turned on the Republican Party. Right, they're always anti-Trump conservatives so that they're basically just neutered pets. That's why I always say at the end of every week, they give Alyssa Farah a cookie and they say thank you and that was nice and cash your check and go.
42:21I want to play one other clip of her because to your point, it's like what happens then is they don't refine their ideas and then you end up with this type of hysteria. Charlie Kirkman? Yeah, him's horrible. horrible charlie kirk is horrible yes i'm glad he's not here you're glad he's dead yes why would you say something like that man he was horrible on the campuses the college campuses horrible person you know what i do the exact same thing would you be glad if i would die maybe so listen up democratic establishment you can either jump on board with this or we're coming after you in the same way that we come after MAGA.
43:00And that woman out in somewhere middle America saying, Charlie Kirk, he was a racist. He was a piece of s**t. There are so many more of us. Clay, I mean, to me, that's like the perfect encapsulation of everything we're fighting all the time. A radicalized, you know, woman that appears to be a grandma, probably, who literally is now wishing death. She's happy that Charlie died and then apparently happy if this other woman died. And then a podcaster who basically is like, yes, we need more of that energy. And that's to the backdrop of a friend of all of ours who is now dead. Look, they believe that we are evil and they believe that we are Nazis and that we are Hitler incarnate because they're morons.
43:45But because I think Buck hit on this and I think you would sign off on it too, they aren't exposed to the counter argument. They don't understand what we would argue in favor of or against. And this is where I'll give credit to the internet, which is always a little bit dangerous. I like that you were talking, Buck was talking about how all of the left protected itself. They had so many media organizations that would employ people. all of us had to initially make a living in some way on the internet and uh and i love that i always think about this analogy of it it's remember in the the batman movies when bane says you know i was born in the darkness uh and he's like explaining why batman can't you merely live in it now or whatever that's a great monologue right um i was born in it that's my main impression people love it.
44:37People just adopted the darkness. So I think the reason this is my big theory, this is in the new book. My big theory on a large scale of why the right is winning now is because the internet was a meritocracy and you had to fight in the muck and in the mud and you had to build attention for yourself instead of somebody saying, Hey, you get to be a columnist at the New York times now. And everybody just sees you and you're supposed to be brilliant. like we had to actually get messy and fight our way up one of my buddies says another part of the analogy is like you go to public school uh you uh you either go to jail or you end up you know having success in life because like and it's obviously an exaggeration but he's talking about like you're in the real muck you're not going to an elite private school he's like you go to an elite private school you'll make two hundred thousand dollars a year but you don't have the toughness to end up CEO, right?
45:32Now there's some truth to that. And I think the internet is a, as a general rule, a meritocracy and the top down structure, which the left prefers doesn't work. MSNBC's collapsing. And now what is everybody doing? Going to grab guys and gals on the internet and put them on television, put them on radio. And it works because we had to compete. Yeah. Well, that, that point that Clay just made right there, I think is a really interesting one. But it seems to me that in their death throes right now, where we are bigger than them, and yet they still are in some sense are the center of everything. And maybe the world just needs a center because otherwise we'd all be spinning off in our own universes.
46:09But it seems to me that in their last moments here, they are grabbing these random people from the Internet to put them on. And that just shows you how desperate they are. So you'll see a lot of these random, you know, podcast people show up on these big, quote unquote, big time CNN shows now. Well, there's two other things that I would I would add to all this. I agree with what my my esteemed colleague will apparently three hours a day hanging out with them isn't enough, Dave. You had to you. You know, can you have us on Sunday morning? Clay and I have to see him every day of the week. Two other things I would say.
46:43One is I still think even people who say it's a big deal generally undervalue or underestimate what a massive shift it has been that we have a scale social media platform with X that allows for real time information and fact checking and like BS destroying to to be out there. I think that's a huge part of this. So they can't get away with this stuff they were getting away with before. In some ways, I think the censorship and the media control was worse in the social media era than it had really ever been before because you had so much control and down to such a granular level. as we know, Dave, and this happened to you, this happened to other people, they'd go after individual people, right?
47:28They would either demonetize you or they'd shadowbend you, all that stuff. Elon has now broken that wide open with X. And so I think we should all be very grateful to what he's done for freedom there. And then the other thing I'd say, and this might be a little more controversial, but a lot of these establishment media outlets, it's funny because when Jake Tapper was trying to defend Karine Jean-Pierre, whose book tour is even more disastrous than Kamala Harris, which is hard to fathom. Like this is the way, two of the worst book tours by their own sides, they're mocking them. Don't forget his own book tour was pretty disastrous too.
48:00I mean, it's a three for three. This was terrible, right? Jake Tapper, Mr. Slick Jake Tapper, his was terrible. But he tried to say, oh, well, Corrine Jean-Pierre was a good pundit when she was, I can't speak to how she was in the White House. It's like, look, a lot of these entities, MSNBC, The New York Times, they were the pinnacle of DEI hiring. And let's just say they weren't always hiring people that made the best arguments, were the best writers, or actually had the most mental acuity. Like, that's just the truth. And by the way, we played that clip that you're talking about on the show the other day, and it's like, well, Jake, why can't you speak to her time in the White House?
48:33You opine on everything else. Yeah. So thank you for telling us that years ago she was okay as a broadcaster, but how about - By the way, for three minutes at a time, You have to be a fucking ignoramus to really be bad on television when you only have to talk for three minutes total. You get exposed when you have to talk for an hour and answer questions that demonstrate you haven't done your basic homework. That's when you get exposed. You ever get this, Dave? My favorite thing is people come up to Claire and me and they're just like, who writes all your stuff? Yeah. You're just like, writes it?
49:07Yeah. Yeah. I mean, on the one hand, I'm flattered. The other hand, I'm like, what kind of books are you reading, buddy? Yeah. No, I always say on the show, look, for better or worse, this stuff is coming out of my brain. All right, guys, let's just do one other thing right here because it is Halloween. And although robots are not really a specific part of Halloween, they are coming. They are going to take over. We are going to be in a dystopian nightmare. And this week, Neo the robot, which is going to be the first kind of at-home robot, it's going to make it to the market apparently before Elon's Optimus robot, is now available for pre-order.
49:40Look at this. It's here, the first humanoid robot housekeeper. Thank you, Neo. For$20 ,000, you can preorder 1X's Neo robot now, with delivery in 2026. I think you missed a tiny spot over here. Just one little catch. There may be a human behind the curtain, pulling the robot's strings. If I throw up, will the robot throw up? A company representative may need to peer into your house via Neo's camera eyes to get things done. To many people, this is crazy. You have to be okay with this for the product to be useful. We're twinning now, Neo. One X is taking on home robotics' biggest challenges, creating a safe body and a smart brain.
50:22Its fabric-covered body lets Neo try to do a lot of things humans do around the house. Emphasis on try. Clay, we know all this stuff is coming. This seems like a particularly perverse version in that maybe there's going to be a guy in a VR suit somewhere in India actually watching what's in your house. Most people didn't expect that part. But even if they didn't have that part, the idea that the robot's in your house watching you all the time and can just upload all that information and video and data and audio to the cloud, kind of disturbing. However, I'm going to take a slightly different tack at this, which is this is happening whether we like it or not.
50:57Like five years from now, I'm going to bet that the three of us have either this or Optimus in our house because it's just kind of how we all have iPhones now. Look, I think the maybe more terrifying aspect of this is I'm going to build on it. I don't know how many jobs are going to exist in 15 or 20 years. Like, I mean, I look around at how rapidly AI is evolving. and yes, I mean, it can say, okay, we're going to have Rosie from the Jetsons, like working as a housekeeper. Maybe that, you know, knocks a few jobs out. Most people don't have home maids right now. Right. So it's just really more of a convenience thing.
51:36Buck and I have talked about this both on air and off air. I look around at a lot of jobs. We had a caller the other day who called in and said, Hey, I work in HR. She worked out in Utah. And she's like, I've been applying hundreds of jobs. You look at the number of jobs that are being cut already in white collar. um i think in 20 years that's the scary thing it's going to be not only robot replacement but actual jobs that we rely on many people doing uh taking over too so i just think we're at a technological uh tipping point that's going to be transformative very rapidly right i think this week amazon announced they're going to cut 30 000 jobs because you know basically you're going to have drones that'll deliver the stuff and then for you know postmates they'll it'll be a automated car and probably eventually a robot that then will walk it to your buckets buckets food delivered by robots now we talked about this on the air yeah i haven't even told clay about the little robot that shows up to give me a grease center shiatsu sometimes but you know that's fun too but no there really are uh there really are little robots and have you seen these dave in the neighborhood here this is for real that that do the food delivery now uh and and i would say um this is it's a little weird a little dystopian but i will also say that if we go to driverless cars yes there may be mass unemployment but if that means that i no longer have to listen to blasting reggaeton music every time i get in south florida civil unrest is a small price to pay a small price buck i don't have to tell you at miami the cologne that these guys wear oh my god but but for real do you guys little trees those little trees they smell horrible why do we have little trees in the smelly trees you know what i mean yeah cars oh yeah no and they're endocrine disruptors they're making the frogs gay or something isn't that what alex jones said um but for real do you got five years from now are you guys going to have one as they become ubiquitous as everyone kind of gets it as elon rolls out the other one do will you get one yeah i think i think everyone is going as they become i i think it'll be interesting because you'll probably have them for discrete tasks at first like specific things right and and so you know people are saying oh how discreet you get a michelin star that was your way of saying you're gonna fuck the robots right might not have been the right word there specific you know it's specific we get it it's specific and discreet okay you know uh well definitely not if like some guy from india or whatever is going to be outsourcing the video of whatever you know that's not discreet like this is i will be uh i will be slow on the uptake i'll be slow on the i don't i don't do technology very fast because i'm skeptical that it's going to be that much better.
54:11But if everybody else starts talking about how awesome it is, then I would bet my boys will be the first ones who will want to try it. The kids because they dive in. Yeah, I still get paper newspaper delivery, which is like, what century are we in? Wow. Good for you. I'm going to be the last guy with print newspapers. Every time I get on a flight, I have a stack of print newspapers like this. I'm the only person carrying them. You know, people always ask me if I miss New York City, and the only thing that I miss is when I used to, for a quarter, get the New York Post and read it on the subway.
54:43That is the only thing I miss of New York City. I love newspapers. Yeah. Actually, I read newspapers. Gentlemen, what are you going to be for Halloween tonight, besides each other, the way I set up the show, which is quite weird? Clay, what are you going to be tonight? Right. I am. I am going to be dad following around my youngest son, who is going to be dressed as a banana. So I am going to be shepherding him around for trick or treating, not dressed up this year. Myself. Wife has been in charge of couple costumes past several years, but we're moving to a new house. So no Halloween party this year.
55:19Buck, are you taking the little lady out for Halloween? I am a guy who got a haircut in Miami for the first time, let them do what they wanted to do. And so I'm going out tonight as South Florida Buck instead of 1985 Michael P. Keaton Buck. It's funny. I was about to make a Teen Wolf reference, which is, you got it, Michael J. Fox. It all works. Yeah. Well, I'm a Ghostbuster. We're big into Ghostbusters in this house. Oh, that's awesome. My boys. Yep. I am Peter Venkman. I kind of wanted to be the black guy, but I was told that that's probably not ideal for the rest of my career. By the way, Buck knows this on the Ghostbusters.
55:59Are your boys big Ghostbusters people now? Yeah, they're obsessed, obsessed, obsessed. So I talked about this this week. My middle son was obsessed with the Ghostbusters. We took him to New York City. The only thing he wanted to do in New York City was go see all the Ghostbuster 1 and Ghostbuster 2 places. He dressed as a Ghostbuster to ride around on the subway to go visit all of the Ghostbuster sites, which was absolutely awesome. I have been to that apartment building on Central Park West. Oh, yeah. That is something. All right, guys. Happy Halloween. Have a good weekend. Happy Halloween, everybody.
56:34See you Monday. Thanks, Dave.
