Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Bucks Xton Show Podcast.

Welcome everybody into the second hour of the Clay Travis and Bucks Xton Show.

It is open line Friday, so if you want to give us a call, we'll get to your calls later on,

800-2822-882.

I'm not afraid of COVID, you know, based on the age group and having it already in the past.
