It's Stiff Upper Lip Time

This is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American rank here a great American Again, the buck Sexton Show begins. He's a great guy. No, A bad flu season is eighty thousand dead. We've got about eighteen thousand dead from influenza this year. We have a hundred from Corona. Which should you be worried about influenza or Corona? One hundred versus eighteen thousand? Okay, it's

not a trick question. And look everything that's going on with the New York cleaning the subways and everyone using Clark's wipes. And get your flu shot. WHI should be the other message, that's good, it's a good thing. So I have no problem with the behaviors. What I have a problem with is the panic and the fact that businesses are getting destroyed and people's lives are being upended not by the virus but by the panic. The panic must stop, and the press they really, I somehow need

to be held accountable because they are hurting people. Welcome to the buck, sex and show everybody. That's my biggest single takeaway for today. The press is being wildly irresponsible here as we try to figure out what's next with this coronavirus situation. I have to deep dive into this with you today. We'll work through all the angles together. I really still stick to take precautions, take it seriously.

Everyone needs to calm down, or not everybody, but people that are acting like this is the zombie apocalypse, and there really are people that are taking that approach. I think that if they don't get the last mask from their local drug store or something, that somehow they're not going to be ones who makes it through this. We have dealt with pandemics before as a species, we will deal with pandemics. Again. There are some takeaways from all

of this. One of my most important ones is perhaps we shouldn't focus so much on science that doesn't really matter and doesn't affect any of our lives. You know, perhaps there shouldn't be this obsession with climate change and CO two emissions when we all know that it's just

a matter of time. Any given year, millions and millions of people could contract a truly high mortality, virulent pathogen, and then all of a sudden we realize, Wow, maybe we should spend that money on something else, Maybe we could have taken a different approach. And I think, hopefully this is one of these one of these moments where we start to think about where we should really put

our priority. A green New deal, all that stuff that's a that's a fake religious belief that they won't admit as a religious belief, has nothing to do with actually saving the world. They're saving the planet. These people are absurd dealing with coronavirus. This is very real. Pandemic disease is very real. And I assure you, if we were to go back and look at the archives of this show, I believe I was asked a question, maybe even last summer.

What scares you? And I remember this now, I said, I said, when a pandemic disease scares me, that's something that we have to be serious about. And that's where we are now. The dow down almost what two thousand points on a plunge today related to fears over this virus, which there's a whole lot that goes into that fears over the virus, but also a decision about oil production with OPEC and OPEC. Plus I'll give you some of that storyline as well, just so we're all up to

speed on it. But I just wanted to start say hey by telling you that, you know, the media really cannot resist this opportunity to slowly drag the public through a collective panic attack, because it's a lazy way to drive audience, to get clicks, to get viewers, and to

hysterically trash Trump all day long. Plus somehow we are supposed to come away from all of this thinking that confused, corrupt, inept Joe Biden would do so much better, that Joe Biden would be saving us, whereas Trump is leading us into disaster. I mean, this is, this is entirely unserious. This is and it's reckless, it's damaging. It's not just something that I think we should hold them to account for in terms of the politics. But also there are

a real effects here. I mean, you know doctor Drew and that clip was talking about how people's lives are being upended. There are going to be businesses that businesses might not recover some of them from this. You know, there are places now that they're in their busy season. You know, huge concerts are being canceled, huge gatherings, hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue at south By Southwest in Austin, say hi to all our folks down in Kalbj, Austin, UND.

Hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue just gone. Basically, there's all this additional quarantine over from over the weekend that has taken place in northern Italy. About a quarter of all of Italy is now technically under quarantine and also has one of the oldest populations in the world. I would note that if the Chinese in a country, a very densely packed country of a now do you

believe that Chinese numbers Probably not. Maybe they're maybe they're just trying to game the system and hope that their economy will not be as badly bruised by this. If they downplay their severity of the cases in their own country,

that's possible. But if you believe some of the Chinese numbers, that's a huge If they have been able to turn the the the curve in the other direction now so that there are less there are fewer and fewer, not less, fewer and fewer cases of this with each passing day. And if they can do that in a billion plus person often very densely packed together China, it's certainly possible

to get this under control in other places. So the dow plummeting now has all these people who are profits of doom, and I find that to be very lazy. You notice I don't come on the radio show and day after day find some way to try to frighten people all the time. There are other shows that really and they can conservatives and they do that all the time. The country's going to hell. Everything's terrible, you know, the lives are ruining everything, and any day now we're going

to no longer have a constitution. There are real threats, there are real concerns. I think the rise of socialism is something even with Bernie Sanders not becoming necessarily the Democratic primary opponent, it's something we have to take very seriously in this country and look at why we'd go to this point, why we would repeat these mistakes made in the past by so many other countries and expand upon these socialist mistakes in our own country and our

own economy. But all that said, I don't show up here every day and tell you that you know, we're all going to die, or that you know the Caliphate is going to take over America any day, or there's all kinds of things. Although it is true, and I like to say this, we are all going to die. That's a fact that we're just not all going to die from coronavirus. In fact, very very few of us, I think, in the overall percentage, will succumb to coronavirus.

You know, in a sense, this is a reminder in our modern era where we all see life expectancy, we see life expectancy getting higher generally. I know there's been a drop in life expectancy in America for white males because of opioid addiction specifically and the deaths from it. But overall, if you look at the last one hundred years or so, we're just we're living longer and healthier,

longer and healthier, longer and healthier. That's our expectation, and we get in this mindset of everything's going to keep getting better, everything's gonna keep getting stronger. We've had a stock market now that has been essentially going up for ten years, and some people would say that it's really a twenty year bull market with a blip in it.

One thing that I do love is watching all these different supposed experts in the market and an investing go on TV and tell us things that are either so obvious that they don't really need to be said, or that are so stupid. I'm surprised anybody would go on TV to say it. And this is their job is to tell us about Oh, sometimes the market goes up,

sometimes the market goes down, thanks Bob. So this is where we are now, recognizing that markets do come down, recognizing that pandemic disease is reel, that there are still challenges even in our incredibly comfortable modern world, especially in the developed world, especially here in America. We are all mortal, and we are having to think about that and face that in a way, we have in a long time.

We have not had a draft for the military in how many decades, you know, We've had a very small percentage of this country that is the effectively the warrior class of America. They are our warriors. They go, they choose to fight America's battles at home and abroad. I mean, they choose to be the ones who are defending us,

defending the constitution. We have not had a draft in many decades, and we have not had a mass casualty war along the lines of what we saw in the early to mid twentieth century in a very long time as well, right, I mean go back, you'd have go back to Vietnam, and that was mass casualties stretched over

many years. We have gotten very comfortable. We've gotten as a country, I think a little bit a little bit soft about our expectations of what the future is going to be like and how there's not going to be that much strongle I mean, this is why you've had in the last couple of years completely contrived, I mean, completely made up controversies about Trump working with the Russians, and this, you know, captured the American imagination of the left of Democrats for sure, and we had to sit

through this and fight through this lunacy. But that's really only possible because we weren't fighting a huge war, because we were in the midst of a depression or a major recession. Because there weren't things that we're keeping us up late at night that were imminent threats to our safety, to our family, to our well being in the way

that other generations have dealt with. So I think our mentality had gotten a little bit soft, as evidenced by all the different things that we spend and you know, the media spends time talking to you about focusing on, you know, the latest in the in the transgender you know, equality movement, or whether women should be able to compete in men's sports, or just think of any issue that's gotten a hyper focus from the media that often we have to engage with on the right, try to refuge,

try to say no, that's not a good idea, No, we shouldn't be so green new deals. I've perhaps perhaps the best example of this. I mean, that's just a giant lunacy fest. It makes no sense whatsoever. But we had real time spent all this issue. Yeah, we're gonna rebuild every building in the country. We're gonna dramatically transform our economy. You know, we forget sometimes that the economy

can be a somewhat fragile thing. I mean, there have been empires, there have been great states of the past, nation states where or in the pre nation state, pre Westphalian era, just the hedgemon all of a sudden, you know, collapses slowly then suddenly right that that's what ends up being the epitaph, is that it was it took a while, and it didn't really and then I was a sudden

boom gone. So to talk about moving trillions of dollars around in the healthcare system, or trillions of dollars around because the Green New Deal, these were only conversations that we could have because everything in this country was seeming to trend in the right direction. Despite and I now really think now that we have a real crisis at least to deal with. Think about all the false crises we've had to deal with in the last three years.

And this is the one of the problems that the media has created is that, of course I'm skeptical of any media criticism of Trump's response to coronavirus because all they do is criticize it. They don't they don't take they don't, you know, take a step back and call balls and strikes. They don't pick their shots. It's everything Trump does is horrible. Everything that every decision he makes,

whether it was stopping the flights in from China. I remember, I mean, I've actually got a whole thread of all these different news stories. Experts say this is not a good idea. Experts say, well, now we're talking about experts saying that we should have bigger and bigger lockdowns and don't get on a cruise ship. I mean, you're hearing experts say things like that, don't do it, and you

don't need to tell me that. By the way, there are a few things that sound more hellish to me these days than being stuck on a cruise ship for a few weeks in quarantine. Stuck in my cruise ship room, I would lose my mind. So I've never been a cruise person. It's not my cup of tea, but especially these days, it's not a particularly good idea. I think

we all can understand why. So I sit here and I try to take the most fair minded, objective assessment of this current situation as I can, and I really do believe that we're gonna be okay, We're gonna get through this. And there are people who you have to remember, and this goes back to what I told you last week.

They are rooting for failure here. And part of rooting for failure is a self fulfilling prophecy, because if they get people more scared, if they create enough anxiety, then that alone affects decision making, affects the way people go about their daily lives, business, investment, hiring, all these different things. So that the great and the fondest wish, the greatest hope of the Democrats is Trump will go into reelection in the midst of a recession. Some have been open

about that. Some have been willing to say that they just want there to be a recession. They don't care how painful that is for Americans and what that really means for us. Many of them are hoping that that's what's going to happen. They're hoping for a recession. Are they hoping for there to be real grounds based on the numbers to say that Trump let coronavirus get out

of control here? I'd like to think the answer is no. But unfortunately, I believe there are people who would make that trade off because they think the Trump is the greatest threat to this country that has ever existed, which is something only crazy people can think, but they do believe it. There are millions and millions of Democrats of leftists who have adopted that as the as their core belief, their core position on all things going on in the country.

Trump is the single biggest threat, and so they can't objectively talk about any of this stuff. And that's why the media just filters. The media rather just factors into this hysteria and adds to it constantly. When you know, you look at where we are right now, you look at the growth in cases in this country. It's gonna get worse before it gets better, but it's going to get better, and it's not going to be that bad. I think if that changes, we'll have a conversation about

that too. Why can't everyone just be an adult about this in the media. Why can't everyone just put aside how much they hate Trump? I mean, we're going to talk more about Biden later on the show. Does anyone really think that Joe Biden has great judgment and they'd feel so much better if you would sleep better night knowing Joe Biden as president right now instead of Trump. I'd like to know why. I mean, unless burismas you

checks for eighty grand a month to do nothing. I want to know why you think Joe Biden would be better in this role. What evidence is there for it. Joe Biden is a mediocrity who has just done whatever he's had to do his entire career to keep getting elected. That's all he does, that's all he cares about. No leadership, no good judgment, not an intellectual, not in particularly smart,

not particularly ethical, not inspiring. But that's what you're supposed to take away from so much of this criticism over Trump doesn't take it seriously to hear what he said in this press conference. Because Joe Biden would be so much better. That's an unserious position. You're in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. They have no plan. They might have a plan in seventy two hours, and

he can't tell you anything about that plan. And it's like Donald Trump saying on Friday, I don't want that ship to die because that will just mean that there are more reported numbers of the coronavirus, as if somehow those numbers being reported somewhere is going to change the reality. That's the thing. These people aren't in touch with the reality, the fact that the virus does not care about their stupid politics. The virus does not care about their stupid

stunts on the House floor. The virus does not care about their stupid denials or their attacks on the press, are on democrats or on international health organizations. The virus is going to kill Americans regardless of their stupidity. Are actually because of their stupidity. I mean, Joss garbrosamorn, and it's really embarrassing that MSNBC gives him the platform that they do. Well, what was that rant? Even about Trump

is bad? The virus doesn't care, and Americans are gonna die because of their own stupid Really, I mean, if Americans contract this, it's because they walk around and someone coughs this stuff into the air. How does that have to do with stupidity? Joe Biden is a disgrace and a moron. Truly. Thanks for listening to The bus Esson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Sorry, I mean, Joe

Scarborough is a disgrace at the moron. But actually, since we're on the subject, Joe Biden, Joe Biden is as well, so sorry, whoops, different joes, different joes, different days, but but close enough. Nonetheless, there's also I can't help but notice a voice that keeps entering the discussion over the Trump administration's response to coronavirus, A voice that wants to

be heard. And you might think, why, Well, I think we can all start to come up with some interesting reasons for that, some reasons like, for example, she wants to be back in the game some meaningful way. This is Hillary Clinton talking about the Trump administration's response, this

play clabit. It's actually been worse free because when he was elected, I did hold out hope that despite all of the rhetoric, the bomb bast and everything we heard in the campaign, that the job has a way of encouraging people to grow into it, to accept the awesome responsibilities that one has. But when I heard his inaugural speech of the divisiveness of it, continuing to set Americans against America's the language to darn harnage in the streets, I knew that he had no intention of trying to

be the president for the entire country. He was still very much focused on those who he had brought into his base, and I think as a result, he has made some very serious missteps as president. Like what if it weren't for coronavirus, you know it would be happening. We'd be sitting around talking about how Trump is cruising the reelection because the Democrats are a clown show. But now, because people are scared, Democrats not only blame him for

they say a bad response to coronavirus. Then you say, what's the bad response? Trump's words about how it's not going to be that bad. That's not a bad response. But despite that, they use this this general feeling of anxiety, They are exploiting it and returning to the old narratives about how Trump has done a bad job as president.

Trump is done a bad job because people right now are concerned, because the markets are going down, because there's an overall sentiment that we're heading into some pretty rough weeks perhaps rough months ahead. Instead of trying to help figure out what do we do to make that less bad for the American people, what are Democrats doing capitalizing on this. Trump was never a good president. Trump never did a good job. And Hillary, I think it's vious at this point, does want to be back in the

game with the Democrat Party. And I don't know if that means she thinks she's going to be able to pull something off at a broker convention. That strikes me as less likely than tell me who a better VP candidates for Joe Biden than Hillary Clinton at this point, and let's look at the reality. Joe Biden is an old guy who is certainly has certainly lost a step, that's the kindest way you can put it, lost a couple steps. That's where we are right now with the

Democrat frontrunner. Who will talk more about what's going to happen tomorrow in Michigan or what the expectations are. But it looks like it's going to be Biden. It looks like Joe Biden's going to be the guy who's in the front of this whole thing. But Hillary Clinton's out there still making her voice heard, still weighing in on this, and it does bring some of us to say, why do we have to hear from her again? Oh, that's right, because she also just has this Hulu documentary that came out,

which is really like a hagiography. I mean, it's the most positive pro Hillary spin on her career in life. You could ever imagine being put out by a digital powerhouse Hulu. You know, I just to to the whatever conservative billionaires are out there. I do want to ask them, Hey, guys, you know the left has Netflix, the left test Facebook, the left test Twitter, the left test Hulu, the left

has Amazon. Look at all these places. Can we have like a not left wing major digital content platform out there? I mean, that's a that's a real player that will pay fifty to one hundred million dollars for a new series or you know, to put on a new series or a new show. You know, can we stop losing in the culture fight? That would be really nice because I see it happening all over again as CNN and

ABC in these different news networks just continue that. You know, they continue to serve up news to habituated liberal boomers, but everyone recognizes that they're not as relevant as they used to be. Certainly the movie studios are not as relevant as they used to be. I think it will be really nice if we reached a point where we had just one major content platform. It doesn't have to

be right wing. I'm not even that'd be nice, but it doesn't have to be just one where half the country's view of the world could get a fair shake. That would be really nice. But no, you know, let's just let's just shovel more money to some boring think tanks that are writing papers that nobody ever reads or cares about. That that's a that's or you know, or give more money to a you know, an orchestra in

some like midsize US city somewhere. I mean, this is this is what the rich conservatives tend to do instead of trying to start something that could really change perceptions and have an impact anyway. That's I know that's a bit of a separate, separate thread from this, but it does. It does bother me. It's like, if I were a conservative and I had a few billion dollars, I would

be building. I'd be building the next essentially Netflix that's not left wing, because half the country would be like, yeah, I actually would like to see stories where they're good guys and bad guys, where you can say good guys and bad guys are not getting in trouble. You know that would be nice, but we're not. We're not going

to have that. We never learned this lesson. We also don't take care of our people who go out and fight against the crazy Libs and then they get you know, deep platformed, or they get fired or whatever it is, and you know, there's no there's no safety net for them where you look at you look at liberals. This I just told you recently about Ivanovich. This this ambassador Ukraine who even knew her name before the whole Ukraine Trump fiasco. And you know, she's got a seven figure

book deals Carnegie Institute for Peace. I mean, she's set set for life. Anybody else the stage part wants to try to help the Libs take down Trump. Guess what they see that and they say it's probably a good idea. I'm gonna I'm gonna give this a go. All right, So back to the coronavirus. Oh, I was going to tell you about the Saudi versus Russia oil situation. I mean, here's the here's the basics of it. Uh Saudi Arabia UH and and Russia. You know, Saudi Arabia leads OPEC,

and OPEC wanted to have a cut in production. I think it was a half million barrels a day, and Russia is like, no, we don't want to do that cut, and so then OPEC went went ahead anyway, and or rather OPEC is upset with the Russians and they're fighting over whether or not there's going to be and it looks like the Russians like, now there's we're not going to play ball. So you've had a big drop in the oil markets. Um, you've had that also happening now

the price of oil is going down. Uh, that's good in some ways. It depends, I mean, it depends on really what the what's your goal is. It'll help a little bit with the Okay, here, here's just I wanted to give you a more precise description of exactly Saudi

Arabia slashed its export oil prices over the weekends. According Times and what's likely to be the start of a price were aimed at Russia, but with potentially devastating repercussions for Russia's ally Venezuela, Saudi Arabia's enemy Iran, and even American oil companies. The effects were quickly felt as the Brent global oil benchmark price collapsed by about eleven dollars a barrel, or twenty five percent late Sunday in the sharpest declined since at least nineteen ninety one, and stock

market futures fell by about three percent. The Saudi decision to cut prices by nearly ten percent was a dramatic move in retaliation for Russia's This is what I was talking about, Russia's refusal on Friday to join the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries in a large production cuts the as Corona continues to slow the global economy and with it the demand for oil. So that's you got this

fight between Saudi and Russia over oil production. And that's now also adding to this, some people are claiming that that's really what drove the markets down so much today, Are they correct? I mean, the thing about going on TV to make those kinds of perception perception analyzes of the market is it's really tough for anybody to know if you're right or not. So you just get to go on TV and and really say whatever you want. You know, Italy is concerning to people right now. Wait,

I'm gonna before I get to Italy. This is also a reminder back to the economy for a second. This is a reminder that there's only so much federal government, the federal government and global governments can do, or governments around the globe to try and help in a situation like this. Cutting the rate, you know, right now is apparently a great time to take out a mortgage. Right now is a great time to do a bunch of different things because the cost of borrowing is so very low.

But that's not really the problem. The problem is that people are staying home and not going to things, and not using money that they would at businesses and for services and things like that. That's the problem. And nobody who's staying home from a concert. I think they're about They're about to ban Coachell, cancel pen whoops, about to cancel Coachella. They've already canceled south by Southwest, sporting events

in Italy are canceled. I mean, I can't even keep up with all the different stuff that's being canceled in the US right now. We will talk about what this means for the political season, because I think we are going to see some some implications for that, But the Fed's tools don't really work here. So that's also a reminder that we have this belief, oh, the government, when things get really bad with the economy or when we get really scared, the government can fix this. Not necessarily.

You know, governments have wanted to fix things in the past when things have gotten really bad and we just had to take the medicine, take the pain. So this is another moment where we see that there's not some silver bullet, there's not some magic fix that they have waiting on the shelf. That the super geniuses at the Federal Reserve don't just say, oh, okay, let's make the economy. Let's make the economy great again. It's not really that easy.

So pumping pumping more liquidity into the market, there's tons of liquid liquidity already, that's not that's just doing something to do something which can have the unintended effect of making the federal government seem like it's grasping. It doesn't really have a good answer, So I don't think that that's going to be very helpful. Now, just one on one other debate that came up over the weekend, and

we keep calling it coronavirus. That's imprecise, and the actual affliction, you know, it's this is a little bit like the distinction between HIV and AIDS. Right. HIV is the virus human human immunodeficiency virus that causes the autoimmune deficiency syndrome of AIDS. And you know, we have a strain of coronavirus causes COVID nineteen, which is what they're calling. That's

the more official name for this. But to call it coronavirus doesn't really make sense because there's a lot of coronaviruses, and there have been a lot of coronaviruses in the past, and you know, SARS and MERS and these diferent outbreaks of upper respiratory infections caused by viruses stretching back. Not for a couple of decades we've been seeing this. So there's a movement out there to maybe just come up with a more descriptive, more specific name that people can

use in common usage. And I saw people saying that this should maybe be called the Wuhan virus for Wuhan City. In the Wuhan city in China where this first showed up also happened to be very near the Special Virology Institute in Wuhan, which is the only place where they keep hundreds of live viruses for where we are told this is entirely coincidence. It perhaps is entirely coincidence. It's

a big coincidence. But the Wuhan virus is something that has been making the rounds, and sure enough, the left jumped on this because virtue signaling is is the water in which the left swims right. Virtue signaling is everything to them. They started immediately. I mean Chris Hayes at MSNBC, who's just, I don't know, deeply unimpressive guy gets paid a lot of money to tell libs what they want to hear. But he he said that this was racist to call it Wuhan virus, and you're hearing the people, Oh,

it's so racist. That's really interesting. And also, is there one of these moments where you get a reminder of how ignorant our media class that pretends to be so knowledgeable about everything all the time, pretend to have the answers, pretend to be smart, pretend to be well read. Wuhan calong that the Wuhan virus is racist? But is it racist to call it ebola because Ebola is named after a river in Central Africa where they first found the disease.

Is it racist to call it West Nile virus because you know the Nile River that's actually where that came from. Is it racist to call it Zico, which I believe also originated in Africa, named for either a river or a region. Is it racist to call it lime disease literally named for lime Connecticut? Oh good heavens, not named after lime? Yeah, named after lime cant which I remember growing up with that that was a disease that had

people really on edge. There were concerns that they wouldn't really they couldn't treat it very well, and that we were all getting in lime disease from ticks, from just walking around in the grass. I mean, people were we all forget this now, But in the nineties lime disease had a lot of people on edge less. So now it is still very serious disease if you get it.

But so disease is are name a Spanish flu which doesn't really come from Spain, but Spain was one of the first places after the First World War that allowed coverage of it in the press, in the media, so it got called the Spanish flu. But again, this is just these are unserious people in the media that don't know anything they're not knowledgeable. They don't care to impart real wisdom or expertise to the public. It's all just like, look at me, look at me, I'm so great, I'm

so smart all the time from these idiots. Calling it wuhan virus is not racist and to say that is parading one's own ignorance. But lots of libs over the weekend went into that, oh how dare you call it wuhan virus? Come up with a more creative name, like Ebola, named after the river in the Congo region of Africa. Yeah. Yeah, that's that's lives for you folks shaking their finger at you, yelling at you, calling your names, when really they're just

showing how ignorant they are. You're in the Freedom Hut. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. The fact that he is not willing to cancel his various rallies suggests that he is willing to place even his most ardent supporters at risk because we're supposed to stay six feet away from other persons in order to mitigate the exchange of those viruses. I think that he is showing, unfortunately, why he is so ill prepared to guide our country

during this time of crisis. Just nincom poopery from Democrat Congresswoman Spire Here, the six foot rule is about people who have the virus. Does anyone really think you're gonna be able to spend the next few months staying six feet away from all other human beings? Does anyone really think that that's an intelligent, worthwhile thing for anyone at this point to do as a as a rule, up can't get within six feet of you, No, no human beings within six feet and you know here we are.

It's but see that the whole the whole premise here, It wasn't really to talk about what's whether it's safe for Trump at these rallies or to have these rallies.

They're just desperate to find something to criticize Trump for, and they're using this moment when everyone right now we're a little more susceptible, a little more vulnerable to bad faith criticisms of whatever Trump is doing, and so they're trying to capitalize, trying to capitalize us out the edge says, you know, Trump is not up for this really, because Joe Biden or Bernie Sanders would be Bernie Sanders is an imbecile who doesn't understand how the world really works.

He's just been, you know, shouting from the same sheet of Marxist music for last fifty years. Nothing ever changes with this guy, really, and you think he would do a really good job all of a sudden, the people that are yelling all the time about government healthcare, well we'll get into that in a moment.

That's about the most exciting thing that Joe Biden can come up with for why you should vote for him over Obama. Biden Democrat. Just he's trying to ride Obama's coattails now into the presidency.

After keep in mind, Hillary Clinton got to elbow him out of the way the last time around, and now we're supposed to think that Joe Biden has become this really great candidate. Look, I there are only a few other individuals shows that I will ever listen to because I'm very busy working on my show and doing research for this and keeping producer Mark happy, which is a

full time job. So you know, I gotta do things in here that require me to not focus on, not not be able to listen to what else is out there all that much on radio and on podcast. I'm doing my own thing. Joe Rogan is one of the few exceptions I will make if he has a really interesting guest, because I do think that Joe Rogan, even though he's a Bernie Sanders endorser, which I think shows a lack of understanding of politics. But nonetheless I still

like Joe Rogan's interviews. He had this to say about Joe Biden. I just want to know this is this is a guy who's endorsed Bernie Sanders. It's not a Republican at all. Here's what he says about Obama, Obama Biden, Democrat, Joe Biden. Play clip two. Stop pause. He can't be president. Stop pause, pause, listen. We can't play any games here, folks. This is a really old man who can't talk. I think he goes on even more than that, but he's just saying we can do this like this. This guy

does not seem like he's all there. This guy does not seem like he's somebody who could handle the physical and mental rigors of the job. And yet there's such a desperation from Democrats right now to have somebody other than Trump, because they just want someone who will restore their power and will will give them a Democrat voice at the bully pulpit of the Oval Office able to just, you know, spew the Democrat talking. What's they just they

want that. They don't care who it is. It doesn't matter anybody but Trump who's a Democrat will work for them. They were even playing footsie with the idea of it being a socialist a socialist Democrat. So it's not like I'm just coming up with this out of nowhere. There is a willingness to overlook extreme deficiencies in candidates as long as there's an opportunity to defeat Trump, whatever whatever that may be. I think that I'm not even sure

if this was the SoundBite. It's tough to keep up on which bizarre Biden SoundBite is the one that people are noting. I think Rogan might have been referring to this one. He might have been referring to another one, but play this is the latest Joe Biden flub play one and turn turn his primary from a campaign that's about negative attacks into one about what we're four because we cannot get reelect. We cannot win this reelection. Excuse me,

we can only reelect Donald Trump. We cannot win this reelection. We can only re elect Donald Trump. I mean, he's stopped to try to pick his words, and that's what he comes up with. You know, on the left, they make fun of Trump and they say that he's that he's got dementia, and they're very callous about that. I would know too. I mean, I I do try to be more more cautious, you know, being flippant about things

like dementia. Me dementia is very sad, very serious, and a lot of people's loved ones will suffer from it. It's something that I wish we had better treatments for a better medication for Alzheimer's. Is something that I wish we could cure. And we don't even really have much of anything to be able to fight back against it at this point. So but when it was Trump, it was all, oh, he's he's got dementia. Ha ha, He's he's you know, fallen apart because he would say like

too much. They said he sounded like a valley girl, or you know the way that his speech pattern would sort of just stop and gold like this, And I mean it sounds like a guy from It sounds like a guy from Queen's. I mean, I'm from here, so I know there's nothing about him. I've never heard Donald Trump speaking and say, yeah, it's like he's a guy who's lost in uh, you know, lost in a clinical medical sense, like he can't understand where he is or what's going on. We've all had I mean, am I

I'm picking out Joe Rogan there for example? Is he seeing something that's not there? Is he just some some Trump bought. Now I know he ended endorsed Bernie Sanders, but his whole brand is that he tries to be a fair minded person about things. And I've seen him talk to conservatives and do so respectfully. It's not impossible

to do. By the way, a lot of libs out there seem to think that you can't have a reasonable discussion with with an intelligent conservative on their media platforms, that it always has to be attack, destroy, get them. You know, they can actually just do an exchange of ideas and let everybody come away from it a little bit smarter, a little bit wiser, and you know, maybe a little bit more were in touch with one another. Biden is a mess, and I also can't help it.

But note that Kamala Harris decided to endorse Biden because now, I mean now the estab and Biden is the establishment. Kennedy, he's the guy. Kamala Harris decided to endorse Biden over the weekend. But I remember what Kamala had to say about Biden when she was trying to beat him, and it seems a little bit self motivated doesn't refer to all of a sudden come out with this endorsement of

Joe Biden. Play A fifteen. It was hurtful to hear you talk about the reputations of two United States senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country. And it was not only that, but you also work with them to a post busing. And you know, there was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools, and she was bust to school every day.

And that little girl was me. So I will tell you that on this subject, it cannot be an intellectual debate among Democrats. We have to take it seriously. We have to act swiftly. As Attorney General California, I was very proud to put in place a requirement that all my special agents would wear body cameras and keep those cameras on. She went from that, let's be clear, essentially saying that Joe Biden is like kind of a racist. Right, Why would he oppose busing for no good reason unless

he was being a little bit of racist. Right. I've talked to you about how if you look at the history of bussing, it's much more complicated. If you look at how many kids who were busted hated it, didn't want it, their parents didn't want it, including a black children, White children didn't want it. Not all of them, but a lot of them. But politicians knew better, not a lot to have choice. Sorry, bigger social engineering to get through, bigger social justice agenda, to achieve at the expense of

your kids, their future, their happiness, their day to day. Yeah, it doesn't matter to Democrats. They've got a bigger idea, right, that's the reality of bussing. They never talk about this that always just act like it was this unmitigated victory for civil rights and nothing but good things come from it. But she went from that over the weekend to this play three. So I just wanted you guys to know, because you've been supporting me for so long, and I

just wanted you guys to know. I have decided that I am, with great enthusiasm, going to endorse Silbiden for President of the United States. I believe in Joe. I really believe in him, and I've known him for a long time. One of the things that we need right now is we need a leader who really does care about the people and who can therefore unify the people, and I've leave Jill can do that. I am supporting Joe because I believe that he is a man who

has lived his life with great dignity. He is as a public servant who has always worked for the best of who we are as a nation, and we need that right now. There is so much mistake in the selection, guys. He's always worked for what's best, except for being a racist about bussing? Right? What did I miss? How did that change so suddenly so quickly? Ah? Was it all?

Just was that all just kind of a dirty, underhanded attack then meant in bad faith because Kamala thought, because the media told her that she had a big shot at the president, at the nomination and maybe the presidency, that whatever she had to do, she should do. It reminds me a little bit of what faces Elizabeth Warren

right now. Hellorship of Wargs. I hope she stays around or so I can pretend to be her because she whatever, right would People are like, oh, you know, I know exactly who you're trying to do an impression of them. She was on SNL of the Weekend with with Kate Kate McKinnon. I thinks her name right, probably pretending to be her. You know, why why can't SNL just try to be funny? Why why does it have to be

like the DNC sketch comedy show. It's it's just pathetic, right, I mean, I guess that's NBC and that's just what we all are supposed to expect. But you know that they they're not They're not doing any fun sketches like this with the Republicans anytime anytime lately, at least not that I've seen anyway. So Warren is uh, she's still waiting to see who she will endorse, and that's big because if she were to endorse Joe Biden, it would really be for anyone who's looking at this and assessing

what's going on. If she endorses Joe Biden, it is clear that her entire campaign about standing up to Wall Street and caring about the working class and that was all just really a fraud, and it was all just here, well, whatever I have to say, whenever I have to say it. And so that's a possibility, But she knows if she wants to be in the cabinet or even just in

really tight with the with the new administration. Administration is very powerful, a lot of jobs to give out to people, a lot of patrons, a lot of access, a lot of power. She wants to be on the good side of that. She's got to get on the get it on the Biden train now, probably right. So that's one option, or the other option would be to endorse Bernie Standers. Here's what the burn said about a play eleven. Can

you win this nomination without the support of Elisabeth Warren? Yeah, well, I certainly would love to have the support of set of the Warren but yes, of course we can. We can win this because we are going to win the support of working people all over this country who agree with our agenda that, among many other things, the time is long overdue to recognize that healthcare is a human right in this country, not a privilege. We must fasst

the Medicare for All single player program. Now, this is what I meant, I meant to get to this before, before we had a transition between segments there. First off, I mean Bernie saying, you know, we can we could win with thought warden, but we won't put support. Yeah, of course, not not a surprise, but Medicare for all. Healthcare is a human right. We're seeing this experiment now play out in a sense, in a way that we

should all pay attention to. It is the position of Bernie Sanders that if only there was legislation that said, if only the law in this country said that you have a right to go into any medical facility that you choose and to be treated and it'll cost nothing. If only that law existed, we would be in much better shape right now, not just as a country in general, but in better shape with the coronavirus epidemic spreading that nors reality. You see what's happening in Italy where they've

had a really bad, really bad breakout. That is now. I mean, I don't know the numbers off hand, but it's you know, you've got thousands infected. I think a few hundred have died, and it's it's still spreading, still getting worse, and there are all for a lot of the people that are getting infected, there are concerns about how long they'll have to be assisted assisted in their breathing. What ends up happening is your lungs. When you get this,

it's an upper respiratory infection. Your lungs cease being able to function, and so you need a respirator. You actually need help breathing. And that also prevents because if your lungs become overtaxed, there can be other organ failure that occurs. I think liver failure can happen, and so they're trying to keep all your organs going as your body tries

to fight off the disease. If you're elderly, this is the big concern is that your body just becomes overwhelmed by this and you you're already weakened immune system is not enough to fight it off, and then you have organ failure and you die. Pneumonia is a big, big concern as well. But this is you're seeing an analysis, that analysis right now that'll make the rounds. There's lots of them on how if this gets as bad as some people are saying. And that's what I want to

walk you through. And let's say that it gets to the point in Italy, we'll say it. We'll keep in Italy where they have, you know, fifty thousand confirmed cases, and of that fifty thousand confirmed cases, they've got ten thousand people who aren't dying from it but need serious medical care, like need to be in What happens when they don't have enough hospital beds, What happens when they don't have enough respirators, What happens when they don't have

enough doctors and nurses to attend to those individuals. That's the fear. Do you know what universal medical care does for that? In the sense that you know the law that says everyone must get cary you it does nothing. You go to a hospital and say, hey, the law says that I have to be treated, and I'm worried that I've got you know, coronavirus, like I can't really breathe. You know that they're gonna put you on a COT somewhere and they're gonna get you what they can get

you when they can get it for you. Who are you going to complain to? Where else are you gonna go? Nowhere? The government's the only checkbook on this issue, right, That's what we've been told is the best thing. Who are you gonna go say? Hey, hold on a second, I'm really worried. I need I need more help than I'm getting.

When the doctor comes in and says, sorry, we don't we don't have a bed for you in the ICU, but you know, we can keep you out here in this waiting room in the hallway and we'll put you on an iv if we have enough ivs, and we'll try to get you a respirator if and when your lungs start to fail. But that's what we got. And by the way, I'm not blaming the doctor. That's just

the doctor saying, look, this is what we got. Do you think there's some law that Bernie Sanders would want to be the case where you could walk in and demand medical characters that see they don't understand that's apply and demand exists whether they want it to or not. This is this is one of the fundamental failures of Marxism, which is what Bernie Sanders is a Marxist that and I keeping people say, oh, wouldn't it be better if

we all have the universal medical care? No, because right now, which you really want are people having to make very clear determinations or whether or not they should go to the hospital. And part of that is, in fact, the the cost, you know, I mean, and I went to the er for you know, for what I thought was basically flew once and excited a fever and everything. It's like a thousand dollars to just sit there in the way.

I didn't even get treated, To just sit there in the waiting room and have them take my vitals, tell me my blood pressure was fine. Now it's in the waiting room for six hours. Thousand bucks. Guess what. I'm not going back to the hospital unless things are really bad. Bernie Sanders thinks that if we had the government writing checks for everybody, that would make it better. When the situation is overwhelming the supply of medical care, that's the

real concern. And well, what government's gonna do. You're gonna just manufacture more doctors, just just have more nurses. Appear like off an assembly line. Oh, we think the government's really good at training the best nurses. The government's really good at creating doctors. No, the market creates these things, the employment sector and the different tools that are needed to make these hospitals able to have the facilities necessary to treat people. That's all. This is all. There's market

forces with all of this. Bernie Sanders makes it sound like if only the government is running the checks would all be fine. That's because Bernie Sanders doesn't know what the heck he's talking about. You're in the Freedom Hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. I think that we are at a tough point right now because there's a lot of people who are concerned about Joe Biden's ability to carry the ball all the way across the end line without fumbling, and I think that Castro has

some really legitimate concerns about it. Can he be someone in a long, grueling campaign that can get the ball over the line. But there are definitely moments. Will you listen to Joe Biden and you had just wondered you just wonder? Is right? Corey Booker's telling us what we already know. This is the guy Democrats are running around talking about how Trump is incompetent. People are dying in this country because of Trump's incompetence around coronavirus, and the

alternative they offer is Bernie Sanders. That's their serious position. Absurd, completely absurd, and also we do have to deal with this problem. The three most likely candidates to be president going forward are all people in the highest age cohort of risk category for this virus. What does that mean? What should we think is going to happen here? Thanks for listening to the bus Essence Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcast, if the iHeartRadio app, or wherever

you get your podcasts. If Bernie Sanders is the Democratic nominee, will you campaign for him? I will support the nominee of the Democratic Party, But when you campaign for him, I don't know if he would ask me to campaign for him for reds because I have no idea what he is thinking about for a general election campaign. As I've said many times, I do not think he's our strongest nominee against Donald Trump. He's got an endorsement of Joe Biden. I'm not endorsing there's nobody left. Well, I

guess that's true. There isn't anybody left. So Hillary's kind of like, yeah, I'll do what the party needs you me to do. But I don't think any is candidates is that great. I got a better candidate in mind. Not going to name her right now. Hello, not gonna name her, but she's out there. She's out there. Here's something that we have to discuss. You know, they're the calls the media are for less public gatherings. You know they have had journalists asked Trump. Don't you think you

shouldn't have these rallies. I haven't heard now when I say this, maybe they haven't asked this too. I haven't heard anyone asked Joe Biden or or Bernie Sanders. That Bernie Sanders had a heart attack like what six months ago and he's basically eighty and they're not asking him, but they're asking Trump. This is a real concern, and I don't know if anyone's really thought this one through.

But you have Trump, Biden, Bernie, they are all people who are in the highest risk cohort in terms of their age, and in the case of Bernie Sanders, also complicating health conditions. When you've just had a heart attack and oh, Bernie Sanders mind, you would not release his full medical history recently he said no, no no, no, muckna done it. I said it was put him muff. But don't worry. Why should we not worry? I mean, wouldn't anybody be worried about this? Does this mean that they're

not going to have these rallies? I mean, we do have to take seriously the possible ability that you might have a one of the candidates for president fall ill with this, and it wouldn't be something that we could just say, oh, well, you know, he'll be fine in a week. These candidates are out there doing things. You know, Sepack released and this is all out there now. You know, Sepack, let U be known that they have They had somebody

at Seapack who had has trusted positive for coronavirus. I don't know who the person is, and I don't think it really I wasn't there, so it doesn't doesn't matter to know the specific name at this point. But Ted Cruz Senator Ted Cruz has decided to voluntarily quarantine himself there are others. I believe match schlap is ahead of the American Conservative Union that puts on seaback. He has

voluntarily quarantined himself. There are others who are staying with a voluntary fourteen day quarantine just to be on the safe side. And you know that was at sea pack where you have a lot of people. Seapack is for those who haven't been. I mean I've been in the past. It's a lot of you know, handshaking, chatting, pressing the palms, talking to folks. It's kind of like a big political

rally in that sense. Well, Trump and Bernie and Biden are going to be doing rally after rally after rally after rally, talking to people, shaking hands, getting close to them, and Trumps said, look, I'm going to do this, you know, regardless, very important that anybody who's going to be in that case or in that situation is keeping their immunity at the strongest level possible. It means you know, what are you eating, how much sleep are you getting, are you

hydrating enough? And another part of this is how much stress are you putting yourself under? Stress is very bad for your immune system. And I know that sounds very kind of new ag Like I'm sitting here doing a show where we should have wind chimes in the background and a bunch of you know, Buddha statues or something, and everyone's talking about enlightenment. But no. Stress is very bad for your immune system, and being on the campaign

trail is a clearly very stressful, very taxing thing. You know, what are the chances that all these three individuals trump Bernie Maiden, shaking hands with people, going out to all these rallies, one of them may can track coronavirus over the next in the next nine months. Remember it may fade now. But if you look at and I don't like pointing out the Spanish flu up that was nineteen eighteen.

We didn't have any biotics, we had a much less developed public health system, much less ability to communicate with different places about where there were outbreaks and what resources were needed. And there's a whole different situation going on. But if you look at just the spread, the initial spread of Spanish flu and then the worst spike in depths. The spike in debths occurred in the fall of twenty eighteen,

I mean, the initial disease popped up. I think in February March of twenty eighteen, but it was in the fall at the end of that year that you had this huge explosion of infections and debts. So there is a very high likelihood that there will at least be another round of this, that there will be a surge again in infections and in possible possible deaths from this. Right in the height of the campaign season. What are the candidates going to do? Are you gonna stay home?

They don not have rallies. I just don't think that that's realistic. But this is you know, I will say I actively pray for the health and continued fitness of anybody, you know, any of my fellow Americans, anyone around the world, though they pray for the whole world might be you know, well, I guess we can do that. So, but specifically we're

talking about the candidates for the presidency. I want you a Biden, I want Bernie Sanders, and certainly I want Donald Trump to be as healthy as possible, live as long as humanly possible, and you know, God forbid any of them come down with coronavirus. That's said, I do think this has to be considered as a as a real possibility. Think about the This could change history, my friends,

is really what we're getting into here. If one of these candidates ends up getting coronavirus um, that will change the whole the whole nature of the race, won't it. I mean, that will change the twenty twenty presidential election very possibly. I should maybe they get it and it's a week and they're sick, and then they're fine, and then they move forward. You know, that's also possible too. But this is this is now getting to a place

where we can't we can't ignore that especially. You know, our political class is very much the top of our political class is composed of a lot of people that are are up there in terms of age, and are the ones that are they're in the most of you know, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Donald Trump, Joe Biden. I mean you look at the Bernie Sanders. I mean, just go through the litter, Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton, all these different big political names. They're people who are in their seventies

and some of them are pushing eighty. So they're in this high risk categories. Does that mean that they aren't going to continue to do what they have scheduled politically, are they you know, what message would that send to the public. I don't have answers on this other than just to say that needs to be thought about a little bit. Should they really be out there shaking hand?

Should they really be out there? You know, just heaven forbid that moment when someone at a presidential at a rally, you know, some guy in the crowd, maybe he's just got allergies, like coughs on Joe Biden or something as he walks by. I mean, people are gonna lose their minds. I mean, I'm taking the subway in New York all the time, which is one of the worst things you can probably do. I'm exposed to. You know people, millions and millions of people take the subway every day from

all over the world. And this is just the reality of my life. But in terms of the transmission, transmission possibilities, the subway is a really bad place to be. Now. They're scrubbing it down and everything else, As if that's going to make a big difference. I don't think it is. There's only so much you can do, though. There's only so much you can do. So as much as I like to counsel. You know, stiff upper lip, keep calm and carry on all that stuff. There's there's some stuff

here that could really shake up. Shake up not just American politics, shakeup history of this country. If this continues, you're in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Well, this is kind of a surprise. New York State is now producing its own hand sanitizer, NYS Clean. Governor Andrew Cuomo has announced the product as a response to price gouging on hand sanitizer amid coronavirus fears, and it is made by New York prisoners in the Department

of Corrections of New York State system. Around one hundred thousand gallons a day of the product is due to be distributed to places like schools, not for profits and other government agencies amid surging numbers of chrom novel coronavirus cases. There's a rush on hand sanitizers. Stock is hugely inflating product prices. Last week a hardware storm in Handan was fine for hiking prices on products like hand sanitizer and antibacterial wipes. We are problem solvers, Cuomo said on Monday.

And there's price gouging on hand what do you do make your own hand sanitizer. Oh yeah, let's see how this goes here. We got government deciding to create its own product line for a hand sanitizer. From what I understand, hand sanitizer isn't really as effective a tool in this fight as a lot of people would like to believe

it is. I mean, I'm sure it's better than nothing, but remember, yeah, if you touch something and then touch your mouth or touch your eyes your nose, you can get coronavirus or influenza standard influenza, of course, But keep in mind, if you walk into a room, aerosol eyes droplets can stay in the air for about ten minutes, and if someone sneezes, there's like an eight foot spray of aerosol eyes droplets. Six to eight feet, I think

is what people estimate. Depends on how hard you sneeze, and that just means you walk in, you breathe that in, or any of that mist gets into your eyes or your nasal nasal passageway, you got coronavirus. Now right, That's that's how this actually works. So the hand sanitizer things nice. Every time I read some reminder don't touch your face, it just reminds me that fifteen seconds before I read that, I touched my face. I don't know. I'm not good at not touching. You know, maybe I need to shave

my beard. I don't know. It's probably a beard is probably not good for epidemiological reasons. But can't can't bail on the beard at this point. Also, this this came out at eight. So I was at I was at church yesterday right near right in sort of lower midtown Manhattan, and I was thinking about this, and I have feeling because you know, at the end, everyone gets called up for everyone gets called up for a communion, and I was thinking about how well the priest said. He said, look,

I'm not gonna put the host in your mouth. I'm going to put it in your hand, and you put it in your mouth. We're not doing the I put it directly into your mouth, which but I've never been somebody that wanted the priest. But I don't want anyone's fingers in my mouth. I mean, I don't know what else said. I don't like that. So he said that's what they're doing. Well, now we got a problem because in DC, and I know this church in DC, a

priest has coronavirus confirmed. He offered communion and shook hands with more than five hundred worshippers last week and the week of February twenty fourth, all worshippers who visited the Christ Church in Georgetown, d c. Must self quarantine, self quarantine, and church is canceled for the first time since the eighteen hundreds, you know, producer Mark, I gotta say one thing I've always I've always been opposed to the little cup. You know, the chalice with the blood of Christ. Did it?

You know, a good Catholic boy, they know all this stuff. The point I'm making is that they take the little little little like napkin and they wipe it. M not good enough for me, sorry, especially now, but that's never been good enough for me. Like I don't want a cold, I don't want cold sores. I don't want any of that stuff. And everyone drinking from the same cup. Would you ever do that? And you're not in a million years, not a million years. And this is what I've seen

people do this all the time. The wind and the priest does this little like like wipes the slobber off. I'm like, I know enough about back bacteria. Two wipes this salive off. I should say we did the bacteria to know that that does not actually do anything. Really, I won't even use a public toilet, definitely wouldn't use a public cup. Yeah, so there's gonna be some changes in churches for sure. Uh, you know, church attendants is about to go down. I feel bad, but that's what's

gonna end up happening. When I was in church yesterday, and you know, for whatever reason, there's always I think it's because you're you're in a church. There's the cavernous nature of most churches here in New York. I mean, some churches are a lot smaller other parts of the country, but most of the Catholic churches you go do here almost feel they Some are cathedrals, but a lot of

them feel like cathedrals. They're very spacious on the inside, but you can always hear someone coughing somewhere, and like, nobody really wants to be in church right now where there's anybody anybody who's coughing loudly, that's not that is not something that goes over well with the people around you. So that just means I think you're gonna more people stand home from Church. I don't know what it's going to take for everyone to calm down about this a

little bit. I just think that the media has managed to get everybody in this mood right now. We're all worried. There's all this panic buying of hand sanitizer and masks, the stock markets getting crushed. This is the worst look. This is the worst most down period of the Trump presidency so far, and it's really the scariest the country has felt since the two thousand and eight two thousand

and nine financial crash. I will note that that was a systemic financial issue that a lot of people said did threaten the very the very foundation of the global financial system, and they can explain why that is. It's not just a theory. I mean, there were some real concerns that there would be uh, there'll be collapse of credit markets. And with collapse of credit markets, guess what, no bread on the shelves, no milk in the store

kind of thing. This is not nearly as this is not nearly as financially bad as that was, and I don't think it should be. But if people keep keep doing this, keep going to these extremes thinking that they have to cancel all these different events. They can't go out, they can't do things, and a lot of I was with a friend over the weekend and she was telling me that there was self quarantining going on now in her office. I mean, people are just saying, hey, I

want to work from home. Bruce and Mark, we are soldiers for freedom in America. Yeah, that's what I thought. No, we come into work, all right, We come in here to the hut until I figure out how I can do this show with video remotely, then we can stay home. We're more than six feet apart. That's yeah. Plus, I don't I don't sneeze. I think it's been a long time. So look at the Oh the other thing I might mentioned before, it's so New York State has its own

its own hand sanitizer. But there's also advice from Governor Cuomo, and I just had to laugh about this one. He's come up with this idea of New York Clean, New York State clean, or whatever. So okay. He also has said that if a quote, subway, car or bus is crowded, try to take the next one and avoid densely packed places. You will be waiting for a subway that is not densely packed during you know, the times when you need the subway forever. Yeah, this is not advice. This is absurd.

And even in the middle of the night, if you're trying to write the subway, it's packed because there's only one train every twenty minutes, right, so that they'll never happen, right, this is this is crazy, but this is where it is. We're being told avoid crowded subway trains when every subway train in New York is crowded, Avoid public places when people need to work, people need to do stuff. You know,

life does have to go on. How long would we think about this way if our real plan here is to stop living our lives and to retreat into these these bubbles of pre pre quarantine quarantine, Right, there's no reason to think you've been exposed, but you're just going to segment yourself off from from the rest of the population. When we stop doing that, because there can be an outbreak of list at any point in time, when when do we decide that it's safe. Do we just all

of a sudden allow this to collapse civilization? I mean, I know that's extreme, it's crazy, but that's what it feels like. People are starting to think in their heads is what's going to happen, and that's that's absurd. I mean, we made it through, not only make it through the Spanish flu, which did kill about fifty million people globally, but the Spanish flu, and then afterwards you had something called the nine twenties people for he as a roaring twenties.

We recovered, you know, we got past it. You know, people got it. They then were immune to it afterwards, and then we move forward, right, We're going to get through this. The panic is not helpful. Thanks for listening to The bus Essence Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. One thing I've learned in life is that you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat other people when they're under stress. So it's a good

way to figure out who you're really dealing with. Pay attention when someone's in a bad mood, had a bad day. How do they treat people, not just people they know? Well, how do they treat strangers people they come across? Do they lash out? Do they act out? I also have a version of this for if you play sports or you know, compete with somebody in a friendly way. I mean, I used to play a lot of a lot of

tennis with different people here in New York. And there are the people who when they're losing, lose gracefully and are still even if they're frustrated they're losing, they still enjoy themselves and act with a lot of a lot of class and good sportsmanship. And other people that are total maniacs. I've played tennis with people that some of you would actually know if I were to name them, who are well known individuals who when they start losing, they are total maniacs, and it tells you a lot

about how they really are in life. We've all had this. You know. The airlines right now are getting just shellacked. I mean it's a rough rough time to be any of the really any airline anywhere. I mean, they're just people who don't want to get on the only thing worse than being on a plane right now. And I just flew to la for you know, I spent twelve hours on flights what was it a couple weeks ago. But the only thing worse than being on a plane right now for most people is being on a cruise ship.

And the only thing worse than being on a cruise ship is, I don't know, being stuck in like solitary confinement in a maximum security prison or something like a cruise ship sounds horrible. I don't know. I'm sorry, cruise ship is not. I've never been a cruise person, and this is one of these moments where I sit around saying I'm not about to become one anytime soon. So when I went off the boat, I went off the boat.

That's always my rule. So I'll go on the ocean, I'll go on a lake, I'll go on a pond, I'll go on a river. But I have to be able to say, you know what, I've had enough. I'm done, and I don't ever want to be told. You know, our mate there, we're seven hours from land, and we got a two thousand other people enjoying their pinochle and shuffle board while you're pitching over the side with your green gills er and they don't they don't have pirates on.

What do you think of cruise ship? Cruise ships? I don't know, man, I feel like they like the captain probably, you know, none of that that happened has like a little parrot, a little a little earring and no, none of that. Mark probably want to know they have like broadway shows and bars. Yeah all right, all right, So maybe I don't know that much about cruise ships, but I'm just trying to say I want to be able to get off and go to land. I don't want to be told old land is far away. Suck it up.

Put one of those little things on your wrist that's supposed to deal with seasickness. When I'm tossing my cookies. I don't want anyone giving me some little thing that's supposed to like press on my wrist to make it all bet or like, oh put it m I don't believe those things get sick. Oh yeah, this wouldn't be good for you. Yeah, well that's why that's of course, this is why this is like my worst nightmare. The first time I went, I got seasick for like two minutes.

When I finally realized the boat was moving, then it was fun. Okay, well that's not that bad. So look, I mean I feel like you have enough pina coladas and get some sun. Anything can be fun. So there's I had plenty of peanut clada. They're delicious. Not a health food, but delicious. So here's here's what I got for you. Though. On on well flying, as I said, no one wants to No one wants to fly these days. But we've all had that extreme frustration. I mean, airlines.

I've always said, give you the closest thing as an American living in our current era, airlines give you the clothes, this thing to what it would feel like to be dealing in a dealing with a business in a totalitarian state, right because they just got you got nothing. They own. They own you like they want to keep you on on the tarmac for a couple of hours. It's like they're kidnapping you. And then you know they don't know if they can take off. Uh sorry, you know they

they love to do this. In an era of instantaneous communication, airlines will tell you, hey, so the plane is taken off, it'll be here in thirty minutes, and then thirty minutes to go by, and you'll be like, oh no, actually it hasn't taken off and it might be a three hour delay. Sorry, does that ruin your whole weekend? Whoops? Too bad? Suck it up. That's basically what a lot of us have dealt with airline. I've dealt with it.

I've I've had my mind. One of my worst airline stories was actually coming from Boston to New York, where they kept pushing off and doing the two hour. There were some thunderstorms. They kept thinking they were going to take off in a lull in the thunderstorm, because it's about a thirty minute flight max or something from Boston to New York once you get airborne, and uh, nope, nope, nope, we we kept pushing off and coming back pushing off. I had an eight am flight from Boston New York.

I almost missed my six pm radio show. All right, so that gives you I had ten hours for a thirty minute flight, and I had to bail the last minute and run and find an affiliate station in Boston. Began the airline that they feel they feel bad about it. Now. Did I get some like, hey, you get the fry

fry fly free somewhere. Nope, none of that stuff. So I understand frustration with airlines, and I also understand that there does seem to be an inexcusable h trend in airlines where they just you pay to be less punished. It's one of the few businesses where instead of things get like your iPhone is getting smarter, faster, better, you know more, you know, longer, battery, easier to carry everything. Right, other other consumer industries, consumer products get better and better

and better all the time. Airlines get worse somehow. See's are smaller or less comfortable, and there's like, yeah, we had the little tamement system in the back of the seats, so there's some improvements, but you know that they end they have to pay for bags. I thought that was just supposed to be after like nine to eleven as an emergency measure for the airlines. Oh, they just decided to keep it right. So they're always just trying to extract as much me as possible. I got plenty of problems,

plenty of beef with airlines. Can we just have an airline that comes out that's like we're gonna like, all the seats are gonna be reasonably comfortable. It's gonna be a little bit more expensive, it's not business class seats, but you know, all the seats will be reasonably comfortable and everything. There'll be enough room for your knees you're not in the chair in front of you. Nope, can't have that. Have to have like Sylvie Union Airlines United.

So yeah, I understand the frustrations. I also know that as somebody in public life, you always have to hold back from going completely berserk on one because you should just be a nice person. Two because very rarely do you have access to the person who is actually making the decisions or messing things up that are ruining your day. So you're just yelling at somebody who works for a huge company that doesn't get to do anything about it to make anything better. You're just being mean to somebody

basically ruining their day. And then also it's usually brand damaging to look like a huge jerk. But Jank of the young Turks, Jank, the jerk just got crushed in this congressional primary. Fifth Place I Think out in California and is well known for hiring and promoting some of the worst people on the Internet to spew their woke Marxist garbage. They're just ignorant Marxist bile all over the interwebs. But young stupid leftists who come out of college and

don't know anything, they're Look, yeah, these people are like revolutionaries. Man, they're smart anyway, Jenk, this is not you know, I always think that you gotta be You gotta approach your life now if you if you're in public life, you've got to approach your life as there's always the possibility

that somebody is taping what you're doing. And I have a whole theory about this too, which I've mentioned before on this show and Year's Path, where I think the crime is dropped dramatically, but also human behavior in many ways is getting better because we're always being monitored because of the elected, because of technology, because of the technological world that we live in now where there's forget about just handheld phones that all have video and instantaneous upload

and streaming capability, but they're just there are cameras everywhere. I mean, I'll walk around my building here in New York and all the common spaces there are cameras in every room that are going twenty four to seven. So everything that I'm doing in there is being watched, being recorded,

being watched, being recorded all the time. Well that changes your behavior, right, you know, I'm less likely to go for like a totally nude midnight stroll through the gym in my building, given that there are cameras everywhere, right, I'm not saying there's like no chance I would do it. Well, now there's no chance I would do it, But I'm just saying it's less likely that an individual would do

that kind of stuff. I do know from a previous building that I lived in that the superintendent told me that one time there were some folks who did not realize, in what was called the communal lounge on the roof of a building, that there were cameras and they did stuff. You know, So sometimes you don't know and you know that you'll that won't affect your behavior. But I do think it's affecting human behavior in general. And I do think that for those of you who are like, oh,

was that is that, like you have a friend? No, it really wasn't me. I did. I didn't even know who the people were, but the superintendent gave me some clues. This is where you have to remind yourself if you're somebody in the public eye, you could always be recorded

and this could always be shown anywhere. Jenk, however, recorded this interaction himself with an airline employee when there's a delay, and then uploaded it to the Internet as though he's like the hero here play whatever the jenk The jerk clip is where is the plane? Is there a plane? Where is it? Where's the plane? You listen? If we just sit here and take it, it has us here

at still six in the morning, and then they's even harder. Okay, so I need to your supervisor, aren't you where's the plane? All right? I'm not going to answer a question. No, I know because I've been here for four hours. Don't give me this where's the plane? Oh jerk? Does he think that? Does he think that the woman who's sitting there at the computer is just intentionally like not not bringing the plan on time? Now, I do understand the frustration with airlines when they I do think that airlines

play games. I mean, I know that they do when they're not really telling people what they already know, because I kind of want to see if maybe things will get better at the time it'll be condensed, there could be more streamline communication. I totally get that. But by the way that gen clip goes on much longer, he's

you know, berating this person and yelling at yelling at her. Um, I would just know that this is somebody whose whole, uh whole public mantra is to help the working class and that socialism would be better for America and then we should all have socialism and it's so great. There is this this constant pretense among the among people on the left that they care about everybody that they say is oppressed, whether it's minorities or women or you know,

whatever whoever it may be. But more than that, or more specifically in this discussion, that they care so much about about the everyday working people in America. I just think there's a lot of very clear evidence that that's just not true. They really don't care. They like to pretend that they care. They like to have, you know, long philosophical conversations about the possibility of caring about people who work long hours for not a lot of pay.

But when they actually have to interact with them and deal with them, h they're often I mean, this is what you get with MSNBC and these different these are these are liberal millionaires. I mean j jenk raised twenty million dollars for the Young Turks from some left wing Pierre Omidyard guy who also think funded the Intercept. I might be wrong on this, but he's raised all this money. I'm sure he's paying himself probably a million dollars a year and maybe half a million dollars a year to

run the Young Turks. These are rich people who talk constantly about how much they care about the poor and the oppressed, but then when they really get to interact with the oppressed or the working people, they show you who they really are. And I think when people show you who they are, we should remember that we should not just skip past it and assume that maybe they were,

you know, having a bad day or something else. So Jenks a jerk, as I've been telling you all along, and the Young Turks is the worst, the worst left wing media organization on the Internet, which says a lot. I mean, that's that's a pretty competitive space to be the worst of the left and the Internet. But they're definitely there. You're in the freedom Hunt. This is the

Buck Sexton Show podcast. I don't I will miss that so much if I don't get to hear that once in a while from the President, because he were to lose reelection, so he's got to win reelection just so I get to continue to hear him call CNN fake news. It's the best. It's it's the greatest. CNN deserves every second of it. They deserve every time he says it that that that fake news organization deserves to be called

fake news every day. Really, I mean, the president should make a he should just have like a standing appointment where he walks out to a podium. He's like, Hey, just so everyone's clear, CNN still fake news. Still a bunch of jerks over there. But unfortunately I can't get everything that I can't get everything that I want in life. It was international. I think it was International Women's Day

over the weekend, which was interesting. Bernie Sanders. I also, I don't know how much these days this is like what activists put on calendars because no one's like, you can't do that, right, you can call any day any day. I want to declare Wednesday international, like cookie eating Day, producer, Mark, what do you think I did? I was part of a baking duo that made some ill you know, and we'll bring we'll bring one in for you tomorrow. Amazing,

amazing cookies. It's not going to beat these cookies I've been recently buying online. What are these cookies? So there's this Instagram account. I'll shout them out called Mike Cookie Dealer and they make these half pound cookies half and they only found cookie half a pound. They only drop them when she's baking, so like it is a show post on Instagram. It's up Psychoes Live. You have that like an hour order and they shipped into your house.

How quickly can you get them? They? I mean it's I think they're New York BASEDO though, come with it. What what kind of cookies have you had? Let's see the og. The original is a chocolate chip, but it's like stuffed with so much chocolate chunks, it's amazing. It's like cake. There's an Oreo one which has like Oreo cream in the middle and chocolate chips and all this stuff. There's a Canoli stuffed one. They have some crazy cookies. Oh. I've been spending a fair amount of time with a

world class amateur baker, so she's made some cookies. We'll bring you some cookies prest free. They are, of course because they're made for me. Yeah, I'll bring you something Cluti free cookies there. They're amazing, amazing topic quality, like really good. I want to bring them in. You can believe. Yeah,

I'll I'll bring them in for you. Are you? I I tweeted out last week about old meal raisin cookies, and ever gave me a hard time about this because the realities, it really should be old meal chocolate chip. That's actually the best of both worlds, because everyone knows chocolate chips are better than raisins. One of the old meal, none of the raisins. You don't get any old meal stuff. No, not in a cookie. I do think it's funny because

people think that it's somehow healthier. No same calories, same same carb same exactly, So why would you eat crep? I mean? Did the old meals a nice consistency? You have that with a little bit of coffee? I'm sure it is for breakfast. Look at this in a bowl? No no imagination on this one, you know what? You know what? I told my my expert baker that we should try to make by the Way salted caramel cookies or Earl Earl Gray tea flavored cookies. Why this is amazing?

What do you mean we're trying to be creative? That doesn't sound good though a cookie doesn't know chocolate in it. I'm bringing I'm bringing. I was gonna say if we declared International Cookie Day on Wednesday, which I'm sure there isn't in definitely, Yeah, I just don't even know what it is. But you you're like, chocolate chip would be the team that you're playing for. That is the goat of all time, not snickerdoodle. No, no cookie that will

beat chocolate. Snicker Doodles. What you eat when you've had like three chocolate chips in a row and you want to mix it up, but then you always go back the chocolate chip afterwards, you know, I mean maybe a double chocolate chip, like you know, chocolate bass, but yeah, same thing. Snicker doodle is kind of like your cookie side piece. You know, you gotta go to the snickerdoodle, but you know ultimately you're coming home the chocolate chip. Exactly. Yeah,

I get it. So it was International Woman's Day and I was walking through Washington Square Park here in New York, and I was thinking, oh, wait, wait here, old I'm Bernie Sanders. Just this, this is like what people are supposed to say about this play a team. I think women have obstacles placed in front of them that men do not have. On the other hand, we have made progress in the last forty fifty years in terms of the number of women who are now in the Congress.

You can remember it wasn't so many years ago. A few decades ago, the Barbara Mukulski of Maryland was the only woman in the United States Senate. And we have made some progress, but the day has got to come sooner and later that women can see themselves equally represented in Congress, a half or more members of Congress, President of the United States, leaders of companies all over this country. We're making progress, but it's too slow. So it doesn't have to be fifty fifty do we have to have

a quote? I just want to know what's what's enough? And we discount that women often make different life choices than men and so that results in different professional paths. Is that we're supposed to pretend that that's not a real thing because all the quote social science shows but we're going to ignore that, Ryan, you know, we I don't know, we're a society that it feels like we just keep putting motherhood down all the time, and we wonder why we have a lot of the problems we do.

I mean, there's that, but I was walking through Washington Square Park and is fascinating because of International Women's Day. And I saw all of these displays about tran about how we need to do more for trans women biological males. So it's International Women's Day, and the activist left in Washington Square Park wanted to remind everybody on International Women's Day, we really need to focus on men who have transitioned to women. Okay, there's that. Thanks for listening to the

Bus Session Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio Apple or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, team Buck, it's time for roll fall, Roll call. By the way, we just had somebody and produce producer Mark was here so he can he can back me up on this. We add a very nice gentleman who just came in to spray lysol in the handle of our studio door, like this is now, which has that ever happened before, Producer Martin. But I mean, I'm now getting

high from the lysol fumes in here. But I don't mind that. I wish they would just clean like this all the time, though, Like don't you agree that you wish the subway was cleaned all the time, like they are right now. The door handles. All. I was on the subway this morning and the guy sitting right next

to me, and I swear this is what happened. He was eating peanut Eminem's, which I will say are delicious, and I did eat some myself over the weekend because we put them in the amazing cookies we made side note, which you will try. I was supposed to bring them today. I forgot. So I was told specifically. I was told specifically by a producer, Mark Fan, that you were supposed to get some of these cookies. Wait, you don't. You

don't like chocolate like peanut butter, peanuts something, hate peanut butter. Wait, but even like peanut butter eminem's. Yeah no, I might have to make another batch. Then, oh, you only made peanut butter. I'll wait for some different Okay. I'm glad we didn't waste any these delicious cookies on you, sir um. But yeah no, I think I think we're all gonna get it. I agree that everyone's going to little nuts,

but I just wish everyone clean like this. Also, the guy sitting next to me, I was eating peanum and ms and he was dropping in the subway car floor. Min m after Eminem just falling on the ground. People didn't care, didn't care, and like, and then we had Eminem's rattling around. There's a completely packed subway car. Eminem's rattling around the ground of the floor of the subway car. Then, guys, just you know, Eminem's rolling around everywhere. That happens with

like coffee all the time. I guess he's trying to feed the you know, the very substantial NYC subway rat population. Not that they need to help because they outnumber humans now, but you know, it's not amazing. You're go on the subway at any point in time, you will see rats the size of kangaroos hopping around on those subway tracks. Yeah, I basically live on this. This This is why I talk to this radio. I like to live on the subway. Now.

I have to spend so much time to get to the various radio obligations I have, so anyway, but yeah, there's big, big rats. Okay, Doug hey Buck, there's a new book about the backstory of the Office, featuring on last Friday's New York Post. It's hilarious. By the way, I've not seen the later season the ones Correll left any good. I'll probably check out this backstory on the Office of the Office book that sounds kind of interesting. And as for later seasons post Steve Correll, they're okay,

you've seen them, right, Yes, of course. I mean I like Robert California a little bit because I just like Robert California. Will Farrell, I think did damage to his comedy brand by being on he was horrible. I mean, the last fifteen years of his career, I've done damage. Yeah, It's it's amazing that he ever was considered funny. Really, I don't know. He's gone way, way way a long time ago, a very long time ago. He managed to be kind of funny, and then I think he became

more political. He started doing like the George The George Bush Broadway Player, a movie where he just made fun of Bush the whole time. And I don't know, it wasn't it hasn't hasn't gotten good since since a long time ago. But the later seasons after Corral is not as good. Right, It's okay, Like I watched it the first time, but anytime I rewatched The Office a skip fag go right to the finale when Carrel comes. I mean, you still have Dwight Shrewd, who as a character is

one of the funniest TV characters of all time. So Dwight Shrude is amazing on the show. But I have to check out this book. I don't know nothing about it, Jason right Buck. I've been listening to your show for several months now. I spent a lot of time driving for work and really look forward to hearing the podcast on Spotify. It's an extremely refreshing departure from so many other talk shows, and some of your comments have literally calls me to store and out loud while riding down

the highway. I really enjoy hearing from producer Mark Too great to hear someone younger than myself that actually understands what's going on and is almost is out of touch with what apps and technology are apparently the hip thing. As I'm in my early thirties, I find myself technically a millennial and horribly at odds socially and politically with so many people my age and younger that want to

ride the free stuff bandwagon of today's Democratic Party. I guess their parents neglected to teach them the valuable lessons that nothing is ever free in life. I believe Benjamin Franklin said at best when he said that those who would surrender essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither shields high. Keep up the good work well, Jason. Thank you appreciate you writing into us. And I'm so glad to have a new member of the team who is now enjoying

the show and listening on Spotify. And I hope people continue to get you know, the I'm hoping people continue to listen to it wherever they find their podcasts. Jesse, right see, and thank you Bucking producer, Mark. You keep me well informed to entertain every day. Buck, your impressions, your top shelf, your Bernie leads me to fits a belly laughter. I've shared your shows with my father and

my son. I passed them Bucks Shields. I well, Jesse, the single most helpful, most appreciative thing you can do is to do just that, is to pass the Bucks. So thank you very much. And I hope your dad and your son are now on Team Buck themselves and maybe they'll pass the Buck too. And this is how it goes. We want this to continue. To know, people talk about things spreading these days, everyone gets scared. We want the podcast to spread far and wide. It's good

for everybody. So we really do ask your help with that. And it's just an easy think of it. Like a conversation started, our producer Markus pointed out, on a first date, it might be asking a little much for you to be like, hey, babe, have you ever heard of the Buck Sexton Show? But but when you're with your buddies, you know, grilling some burghers, hanging out on the weekends playing some flag football or street hockey. See look at that. Yeah, but I don't think first day it's probably the way

to go. Do you do that on first date? Say hey, do you know who I am? No? Because because they would all say no, and then there's nothing worse than be that do you know who I am? Guy? And people are like no, no, it's not good. It's like, excuse me? Are you a are you a particularly politically involved person? Who? No, No, they they have absolutely no idea. But hey, I thought Rush was bald. Yeah, true, Joseph. Been listening to the show lately on my route. I'm

a truck driver. I've picked up a few discussions about Marvel movies based on what I've heard you say, I think you would like the Captain America trilogy the best. They are politically and philosophically deeper than much of the rest of the Marvel Comic Universe movies, particularly the Winter Soldier and Civil War, though admittedly I love all of them. I did see some of Winter Soldier and it seemed like it was a pretty probably a pretty good movie

to me. Is that is that fair? You're yeah, I agree with that assessment, but I think you would like the Captain America stuff. Yeah, they all are great, but yeah, those are solid. Yeah, yeah, that guy, that guy, Chris Evans does a pretty good job in it. Didn't make They've made like more X Men movies recently. No one even really sees these anymore, right, they're Marvel Comic Universe,

but they don't. Yeah, they were separate universe technically. And then the x ME movies lately have been bad, but the Deadpool movies have been great. I love that. I see we're going to agree on out. I thought I thought the first Deadpool movie was hilarious for what it was, so I think they're hoping to reboot it. The X Men based on Deadpool as well, and then maybe integrate that into the rest of the MCU. Yeah. Here, Well, well, man,

I'll check out Winter Soldier for sure. I've a feeling there might be a lot of movie watching time and a lot of people's futures just because not because they're going to self quarantine, although that will be a thing that happens to some people, but just because big gatherings right now. You know, I was looking at some concerts

I wanted to go to over the weekend. Then I realized it was like, I don't want to plan a concert to go to a concert a month or two from now, because what are the chances that that gets gets canceled? Yeah, I think that's very It's a not zero chance. It's like getting higher every day that these concerts are gonna start getting cancel Luckily in my next concert hasn't sold July. Yeah, So well, the warm weather

helps with all this to it's an open air. Yeah, and thankfully, you know, we are at the we're at the tail end of getting toward the tail end of flu season, so that's good and people will be outdoors more and all that good stuff. Janet, hey Buck lab dings are going so well for you. Oh, Janet, I hope they're going well. You might be a little more optimistic than me. You deserve success for all your hard work. Thank you for your tireless efforts to break it down

for us and keep us informed. I'm listening to February twentieth podcast. What you're saying about how Medica Medicare for All will play out. It's so true. I'm a healthcare provider. We will not work for the peanuts Bernie wants to toss us. I'm a psychiatric nurse practitioner in private practice, and psychiatric care is difficult to find already. I actually have folks cry with relief when I say I'll take them on as a new patient. So some psychiatrists have

already gone cash pay only. Why deal with pesky insurance companies. If Bernie ever does get his healthcare plan through, sorry to say, I will be a cash pay provider as well. Maybe even have a concierge practice where I manage a group of patients for a monthly fee, which is also done now. After twenty seven years of taking care of patients,

I won't be dictated to by Bernie. Just imagining the red tape and the hoops under his system hurts my brain working hard to pack our retirement account now in case he gets in, I would retire and care for patients as a volunteer before subjecting myself to the insult that would be Medicare for All. It said that Bernie will do away with all private insurance, and some countries private healthcare exists alongside public healthcare and folks have a

choice to pay for better care Ireland, Australia and others. Yeah, that's what By the way, that is what we would have here, unless they try to outlaw private care, which I don't think they would do, but in order to force people fro you know, being able to make that choice, that I could see them turning the law and saying no, no,

have to go through our government system. Because what'll happen is everybody with the money won't go through the government system anymore, and you'll have a really good, efficient, private healthcare system for people who can pay and are really crappy, slow, in apt Medicare for all system, but it's free and all of your taxes are going up to pay for it. By the way, Yeah, Jeanette appreciate that. Anyway. That's my two cents I'm pretty much always here for my patients.

I'll be calling and checking on some today Sunday. It's just howadays. I love my work, but I require compensation. Carry on, Janet, of course everybody does. I mean, I love my job. Would I show up for free? Probably not for four hours a day of radio? And would I continue to do this? Well, I have to do something to make a living, right, So you know you have to. There's a reason why compensation comes along with jobs. Jane rites, Hey Buck heard you talking about how Trump

likes people. I was not a Trump supporter in the primary, but did vote for him for the obvious reason. Shortly after his inauguration, I watched Trump address employees of a major company I work for twenty years with injured workers, many of the good old boys. I sat there amazed. It was obvious Trump likes these people. I was won over. Yeah, Jane,

that's that's really what I was saying. I mean, I think it's clear to anybody who pays attention to what Trump interacts with different folks that Trump he just he likes people. He thinks the guys that you know, guys that drive trucks, guys that you know work on building sites, guys that are electricians, you know, and all the way up to people that are you know, building companies, and all the way over to people who are you know,

I don't know, in the military. I mean, you know, he likes people that do stuff, and that comes across you know, Elizabeth Warren likes people who are fancy and feel you know, at home in the faculty lounge at Harvard. Which is why journalists who are overwhelmingly real arts majors who seem to think that the old way of you go to a certain kind of school or not. A lot of journalists go to not impressive schools. But the ones who do go to impressive schools think that now

they're supposed to be listened to by everybody else. But yeah, no, I look, I think Trump. It's a real thing that to observe that Trump just likes everyday folks. He does, he does. Yeah, he also likes you know, supermodels and incredibly beautiful women. But you know, what's a lot of everyday guys. So it doesn't really it's not really surprising. You're in the freedom hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. All right, Rollcall continues now with Sarah Buck

love your show and your voice impressions. You crack me up. When I first heard you, I thought, here's the future of talk radio. You remind me a little of Rush, yet you have your own style. On another note, whenever you improduce a Mark get off On a subject of whistling and your extreme dislike of it, I can't help thinking of the comic A Fuzzy and One particular strip

where the main characters are arguing about pucker screaming aka whistling. Look, I think there's a I'll actually try to google this medical condition where whistling bothers you. I think it's a thing, like it's a Maybe it's some kind of psychological disorder, but I'm pretty sure it's misoponia. All right, man? Really, you know, on today, of all days, no cookie fits in the markets, having rough day today, No cookies for you, producer Mark, you're cut off. Oh I don't like them

because the peanut. But yeah, it will make some delicious chocolate chip, all right, and then you won't get me, Yeah I will holding back from you. Misophonia is a disorder in which certain sounds trigger emotional or physiological response that some might perceive as unreasonable given the circumstances. Those who have misophonia might describe it as when a sound drives you crazy. That's on web MD. A common one with that is some people chewing with their mouths open. Yeah,

you know, like on the radio. People have like the radio shows have gotten complaints people eating on the air because people hate that sound. It is not considered a mental illness, but it may be a form of sound emotion synesthesia and has parallels with some anxiety disorders. So I mean, no, I'm not crazy. I just hate whistling. So there you go. I have misophonia about whistling. We should make that a T shirt. That's right. I'm not crazy.

I just hate whistling. I think that's feeble, shouldn't I'm right about this. I don't know why people walk around no one. No one wants to hear you whistling. Nobody, nobody wants to hear it's some people. Doesn't really bother them. Fine, normal people doesn't bother them. I'm not normal. Drives me completely. This must be why you hate sports. I don't hate sports, although the people that you know who actually I am,

I have to suppress thoughts of violence. For the people who think that it's at events of any kind, the theater, sports events, they do the fingers in the mouth whistle, the super high whistle all. The only thing that does is make a horrible noise that the people within like five five feet of you have to endure. No One else cares about your super high whistle noise in the stadium.

No one else is like, yeah, super high, super high whistle. Guy. Actually, at Ranger games, like at least five to ten times a game, somebody does a whistle thing and then everyone yells pod Van sucks. There's not a tradition at Ranger games for But is it the fingers in the mouth whistle thing? Yeah, I mean that's how you make it louder so the whole arena can hear you, and then

everyone yells pot Van sucks. That sounds horrible. Yeah, But the way I did look at I did because I'm trying to find like a weekend we can go to Rangers game. Sticks are very expensive, crucial Mark. We gotta go out, we gotta go out to Brooklyn. This show. Yeah, we're not quite a We're not a like Russia. We're not a Russia or a handity status here. I can't be the sting is like three four hundred bucks for

good tickets. Yeah, because you only want to sit in a good seas Yeah, you know I'm not gonna dray you up the nosebleed seats. It's unacceptable. Kristin writes, Hey, Buck, love the show and listen everydy to the podcast. Regarding the video game, they'd be a good movie. How about the Legend of Zelda? Great action and story and people love that other worldly stuff. I think there isn't a Legend of Zelda movie, right, I think so. They just

came out with a sonic movie. Yeah, Nick writes, and I've been a daily listener to your show since hearing it on KFAB here in Omaha. The story about Comrade Sanders attempting to board the wrong jet gave me a great idea for Trump to troll bumbling Biden. As he can't use his own playing for travel while president, he could send it to Biden's playing around the country with a perfect photo op Biden on the tarmac with a giant Trump shot in the background. Just a thought. Love

the show, producer Mark is great. A lot of love for producer Mark today he's great, he's apparently great, and you're all great who listen to this. So thank you so much for joining us past the Buck. We'll talk to you tomorrow. She'll tie
