Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show Podcast.

Welcome to the second hour, everyone, of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show on the

Friday, December 17th. Last show with Buck and Clay for this year, Aldi and Monday and Tuesday,

Clay will be in Wednesday and Thursday and then it is Christmas. And we have a fantastic

guest, so it's Michael Barry of Houston, Texas, or Radio Brother from the Premier Radio Networks

and I Heart World. He'll be joining as the guest host then. In the meantime, we want to bring

on someone you're all quite familiar with, I'm sure. Brian Kilmead, he is a Fox News host and author

of the president and the Freedom Fighter Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and their battle

to save America's soul. Brian, great to talk to you. Thanks for joining us.

I'm honored to be in your last show of the year. Yeah, man, it's a good one. It's a good one.

And we're happy to have such esteemed guests today. So Brian, I want to start. We got a couple

You're seeing what's going on here. We were promised something. It feels very different for this

winter time. What do you make of it given that the COVID surge is hitting pretty hard?

Well, put it this way. We've already been educated and stopped taking care of us. We get it.

I already saw how it works. We've written the floor. It had been the Tennessee. I understand.

We understand how to keep ourselves safe. We know the risk. We know if we have it on the line

condition. I know if I'm overweight. I know if I'm an older person that has to worry about certain

things. I got it. I really have a huge problem with the way the president is abrasive way in
