Welcome it everybody Monday edition Columbus Day edition of the Clay Travis

and Bucks-exten show gets going right now. I am here in studio with my

Mayman Clay in NYC in studio near here in

in NYC and yes there is still a Columbus statue near here in Columbus

Circle they have not been able to tear it down yet.

Although, Clay, you might have seen St. John's University, the largest Catholic

University in the state of New York, has apparently cancelled,

uh, cancelled Columbus Day celebration.

Oh wow.

Yeah.

Did you know it was Columbus Day when you woke up this morning?

I mean, yeah, yesterday because I love talking about the truth of what an indigenous people's day

history celebration would mean I like to discuss with people that the Aztecs were a massive

empire as were the Mayans built atop slavery and human sacrifice and the mutilation and torture of your enemies and that we don't know that much more about the Native peoples in this country because they had neither the wheel nor written language

Nor had they even discovered animal husbandry as in we had to give them horses or rather the Spanish did.

So the Plains Indians got their horses

from the Europeans who came.

This is not something that is known very well.

So yes, if we want to have some indigenous people's day talk we can do that as well but yes no

Columbus Day I didn't even know I didn't know it snuck up on me not you know we

we got to it always feels like kind of a ridiculous holiday right when people don't work on Columbus Day. I'm always like that seals a little sketchy.

I gotta tell you you're a Nashville guy. I don't know how many Italians you have in Nashville. Okay. I'm a New York guy and so here New York
