CLAY: Pick the winner of Georgia-Clemson. Do you have a favorite side? Do you think you could put Clemson in the right state?
BUCK: Uhhhh, I am very confident in Georgia to be victorious in this matchup.
CLAY: Do you know where Clemson is?
BUCK: Yeah, it’s uhhh… It’s, uh, in one of the Carolinas.
CLAY: It is in one of the Carolinas.
BUCK: There we go! South Carolina, yeah! I knew that.
CLAY: You got that. Totally. Clemson, by the way, beautiful place. And that’s the biggest game of the weekend and I’m going to be there. You will be able to see me on the big Fox Network and on Fox News Saturday. We’re doing this tour all over the big games of the South, be it Knoxville on Thursday. And, so, I’m looking forward to you’re going to come to one of the games.
BUCK: Yeah, Clay has very kindly offered to be my expert tour guide for my first college football game. We haven’t solidified it yet, but it’s looking like it will be Ole Miss-Alabama, right?
CLAY: Yeah. Ole Miss at Alabama, which will be Lane Kiffin back to Alabama.
BUCK: If this happens, we need as many folks from the Clay and Buck audience as possible to show up, so I can talk about politics at the game, because I don’t know that much about football.
CLAY: There will be massive, massive crowds. I would bet that there are few places in America where you could put 100,000 people in a stadium and have a high listenership for a sporting event than at Alabama for us, for instance. It’ll be absolutely gargantuan.
BUCK: I know. I’m excited. So, I’ll get to see my people.
CLAY: And you went to the golf tournament this weekend which ended up being wildly entertaining?
BUCK: I went to the BMW Championship outside of Baltimore. I was invited by some friends of mine, and they said, “You really got to come down. You’ve never been to a professional…” So just so everybody understands, I grew up going to Knicks games and Giants games. Those were the two things. So, Giants football, I’ve seen plenty of. I actually went to some Jets games too.
CLAY: You went to the Knicks back in the day when the Knicks were good.
BUCK: Yeah, back in the day when the Knicks were a top two or three contender in the East for a number of years, and made it to the finals against the Houston Rockets. Remember that game with the O.J. car driving? O.J. Simpson was driving the white Bronco and they actually broke away from the game.
BUCK: I forget what game it was.
CLAY: That was ’94. It was the finals between the Knicks and the Rockets.
BUCK: Game six, and they break away from the NBA finals to show you O.J. and the white Bronco going like 30 miles per hour down the highway. But anyone, so I used to watch those things, Clay. I have never been into professional golf. And I’ll say this, I know a lot of people listening love golf, too. I’m so certain based upon how much my dad loves golf, that I would love it, that I avoid it because I feel like if I start playing it’s going to consume so much of my life and my time.
CLAY: Suck up your time.
BUCK: I’m not yet done trying to save America. I can’t get into golf. But one thing I wish that I had known, it is hotter than Hades when you go to some of these tournaments and you’re out there standing.
CLAY: You were dressed like you were going to a business event.
BUCK: I mean, I wore a Polo short-sleeved shirt, but I did wear khaki pants, and everybody… Well, the players wear pants, to be fair, which I think is kind of —
CLAY: Well, that is obligated.
BUCK: They have to.
CLAY: They are required to wear them.
BUCK: Right. But everybody was wearing shorts.
CLAY: Are you an anti-shorts guy?
BUCK: (pause) I’m not anti-shorts.
CLAY: I can tell! If you start by saying, “I’m not anti-shorts,” you’re anti-shorts.
BUCK: I’m not anti-shorts I feel like there’s a time and a place. The beach, the pool.
CLAY: And that’s it?
BUCK: Sports, active events, shorts.
BUCK: I will tell you, there was a story when I worked at the Intelligence Division of the NYPD. Now, I didn’t know this firsthand, but they told me there was a senior guy there, that they were bringing in a civilian contractor doing similar to what I was doing, and he just showed up at One Police Plaza to drop off paperwork. He wasn’t meeting with anyone, but he walked through the hallways of the main building where the big guys were for the NYPD.
Basically, the guy in charge of the Intel Division saw him and said, “Pull his offer,” did not like that he showed up in shorts. So, some people, they get very… They think shorts for business meetings of any kind, unacceptable. Clay Travis, just so you all know, does the biggest radio show in America in not just shorts, but flip-flops, as well. So, he is clearly Team Shorts.
CLAY: Oh, yeah. I am ultimate comfort guy. T-shirts, shorts, flip-flops. I mean, my thing would be if you don’t have to wear pants or shoes, why would you wear pants or shoes? Now, if I were… My job, like when I practiced law — this is actually ridiculous.
BUCK: You practiced law in the Caribbean!
CLAY: Yes.
BUCK: You must have been wearing a Hawaiian shirt and working on your tan.
CLAY: This is tied into this. You were talking about showing up. So, I would drive. I had a Jeep Wrangler. I would drive my Jeep Wrangler into my law office in the Caribbean, and I would wear khaki pants and a button down. You have a jacket in your office in case you have to go to court, a suit and tie if you have to put it on, whatever. But you wear khaki pants. You could put on a jacket and a tie easily. I would drive my jeep in flip-flops, and so I would leave my shoes in the office underneath the desk and I would walk into the office in flip-flops.
BUCK: I need to know something, Clay. We’re going go deep into the archives on this one. When Clay Travis Caribbean Lawyer was in effect, was there a puka shell necklace ever around your neck and did you have frosted tips? Be honest!
CLAY: I didn’t ever —
BUCK: You are under oath, sir.
BUCK: (laughing)
CLAY: But that trend was dead.
BUCK: (laughing) You were Shell Necklace Guy! I love it! I love it!
CLAY: I’ve never dyed my hair. Never dyed my hair at all. But I got… One of the partners at the firm said, “Hey, you can’t show up in flip-flops at the law firm,” and I had to start wearing shoes in, because she thought — and I was coming in, parking underneath, and coming in the back door to come into my office early in the morning. I mean, not that I was there at 4 a.m. or anything, but it was before work. I was getting there before lawyer hours. I was getting there before 9. So, I had to start wearing shoes. So, that happened to me, but I wore pants for the law firm. Yeah.
BUCK: Shorts? Then you get into the whole, “Are we talking khaki shorts that are fitted or are we talking cargo shorts?” People get really animated about how they think cargo shorts are a ’90s fashion trend as well that should have died back in the ’90s. However, those pockets come in handy sometimes. I mean, there’s a lot of cargo room in the cargo shorts when you think about it.
CLAY: Do you work out in the gym in pants?
BUCK: Come on. What kind of question is that?
CLAY: I thought maybe like track pants or something? There are some people that are really anti-, anti-shorts.
BUCK: Noooo. If you’re going to run on the treadmill, no one really runs on the treadmill in pants. That’s crazy. Occasionally, you’ll see people wearing sweats, but they’re doing it purposely, right, like Rocky-style to get more sweat, a higher body temperature. We should actually take real calls from real folks about important things going on across America.
CLAY: (laughing)
BUCK: But I’m wondering if we’re going to go in the archives, Clay. If there is a puka shell necklace photo with Clay.
CLAY: You’ve seen my high school class senior photo before, right?
BUCK: No!
CLAY: Have you ever seen that?
BUCK: No.
CLAY: Oh, it is epic, one of the greatest senior photos ever.
BUCK: ClayAndBuck.com is, I think, where we have to put this high school photo.
CLAY: We need to put Ali on research. It’s on the Internet for sure.
