Is Buck Sweating His Hunter Laptop Bet?
22 Mar 2022
BUCK: Peter Schweizer is an investigative journalist who has done a lot of great work on, particularly, financial corruption in American politics, the Clintons. He was great on “Clinton Cash,” and here he is talking about… Because this is going to be something that I think gets bigger. I’m just going to say, I’ve been told by people who are very close to the whole Hunter Biden laptop thing that there’s more coming. I don’t know exactly… I’m being honest, I don’t know what that means. But I hear people saying there’s more stuff coming out on that and the future of the Hunter Biden case.
CLAY: Are you getting nervous now about your steak bet?
BUCK: I don’t know. What do the polls say?
CLAY: The polls, final result — you have them in front of you right now — was not favorably received for me. For those who missed yesterday’s show, I predicted that Hunter Biden will be indicted in some manner criminally.
Will Hunter Biden be hit with federal criminal charges in the next year? @ClayTravis and I have a bet:

BUCK: In the next year.
CLAY: In the next year, for this laptop-related investigation. Buck disagreed. We put up a poll question. We have a high-end steak dinner on the line.
BUCK: That’s right.
CLAY: Yeah.
BUCK: Maybe even some Kyoto Prefecture where they massage the cow. I’m going with one of those cows where they massage it with the beer, Clay. And they price it by the ounce, buddy.
CLAY: Do they still have the girls who come out and lay on the table — isn’t that a New York thing — with the sushi in the high-end restaurants?
BUCK: I… I…
CLAY: You know what I’m talking about?
BUCK: I’m unaware of this!
CLAY: I’m sure you’ve heard of this.
BUCK: I don’t know what Mr. Travis is speaking of.
CLAY: I don’t know if that’s still permissible in the #MeToo era. But that might be the place that I pick when I win this bet, is what I’m saying.
BUCK: (laughing)
CLAY: We can have a high-end steak and also women laying naked with sushi on top of them on the table.
BUCK: “Will Hunter Biden be hit with federal criminal charges in the next year?”
CLAY: No telling what that’s going to cost, Buck.
BUCK: Clay and I have a bet, as you know. The options are: “Yes, Clay is so smart; no, Buck is always right.” “Clay is so smart” got, yes, on this one — meaning Clay says he’s going to get indicted — people who agree with that 18%, and 82% agree with me. We had 8,200 votes. So we’ll see, man!
CLAY: It’s 82% for you.
BUCK: If we were doing odds here, to be fair — if we were really placing bets on this — which, we’ve made our bet of a steak dinner, but really you should probably get because you’re much less, that’s a much less likely outcome based on what the overall betting would be. So you should probably get 2- or 3-to-1 odds on that one. But we’ll leave it as a straight steak dinner.
CLAY: That’s why I’m getting the sushi.
BUCK: Are you a toro guy?
CLAY: That’s why I’m getting the sushi on top of the steak.
BUCK: I don’t know how many of our audience likes sushi, but I gotta tell you: The toro, the fatty tuna, is always so expensive. You’re always, “Am I really…?” It’s always worth it. Fatty tuna.
CLAY: I love seafood. I like everything. I’m trying to think right now where we could be going out to dinner and somebody could be like, “Hey, do you want this kind of food?” I’d be, like, no —
BUCK: I can’t rock with the organ meats. I draw the line at the organ meats. The various… Sweetbreads? There’s nothing sweet or bread-like about them, I will have you know.
CLAY: What’s the stuff from Scotland? Haggis?
BUCK: Have you ever seen that on a menu?
CLAY: In Scotland.
BUCK: Oh.
CLAY: The only place where I have ever seen it —
BUCK: Of course.
CLAY: — is when I was in Scotland. I studied abroad in England because I was confident I could handle the language differences there, and I loved Scotland, went up there.
