Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, everybody, welcome. Second hour of Clay and Bought
kicks off right now, and before we get back into
all of the news, this is my last day to
chat with you until after Thanksgiving because I'm off next week.
Clay will be in for a few days Rocket and solo,
but I'm taken next week off, going to be with
my family up in NYC. And I wanted to just say,
(00:24):
as we're going into Thanksgiving, how thankful I am for
all of you, for your confidence, your friendship, your listenership,
also for Clay as a phenomenal co host, and for
our team, the team that in many cases was with
Rush for over twenty years. They've stayed with us. I
have a beautiful family, a lot to be thankful for.
(00:46):
Clay has a beautiful family and a lot to be
thankful for. So we just appreciate all of you so
very much, and you let us do what I think
is the greatest job in the world, truly, and I
Clay knows I was saying this, There is no job
that I would leave this job for, even you know,
even some of these crazy big jobs that people are
talking about it right now, the administration. I love what
we do. I love what I get to do every day,
(01:07):
very grateful, and I wanted to make a little special
announcement because some of you have been asking about this
for a while. So my wife, Carrie, whom I love
more than anything and is incredible and phenomenal, and she's
bringing ginger apparently for you those of you can see
the video. Honey, would you come around please. I haven't
brought Carrie on the radio before, but I just wanted
her to tell you all, as we are going to
(01:28):
Thanksgiving what we are particularly thankful for this year. Go ahead, honey, We're.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Having a baby in twenty five.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
It's very exciting.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Love you, honey, Love And then we got at that.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
So cute, So everybody out there, bring her back again,
because I think that was a little bit hard to hear.
She's got ginger for people on video. Carrie, you just
told everybody incredible news. Twenty twenty five. You guys are
going to be adding a baby to the family and
it's due in April. We got a baby, So how
(02:01):
are you? How is Carrie feeling? Everybody wants to know
and is it a boy or a girl? Can you
tell us? Can you tell us boy or girl? It's
a boy, a little James. Ye, baby boy, James baby. Well,
first of all, this is amazing. Congratulations to Carrie and
she is doing.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Grateful for you all for always listening to claim Buck
and love meeting you around the country, whether it's in
an airport in New City or even around here in Miami.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
So you sorry, this is such awesome news, Buck, congratulations
to both give you. Carrie is feeling well right, She's
doing well. Baby is scheduled in April. We can say that,
I think now so for all of us, a great
little bundle of joy rolling into the holiday season. It's
funny now, Buck, because I think you could probably say
(02:51):
it now what of the ads that you were doing.
It's actually uh for a IFCJ. You said during the conversation,
some people might have heard. Oh, and we had a
moment came to me like people were like, is Buck
having a baby? Like not very many people heard.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
But so this is actually a good a good lesson.
I love you, honey. This is a good lesson about
media in general, or just the world that we live in,
which is all all guns are always loaded, all mics
are always live. We just had a little bit of
a mic thing where it was open. After the show,
we were doing a little taping and I spoke to Yaile,
who's become a dear friend of ours from IFCJ, and
(03:30):
I let her know that Clay is going to Israel,
but I'm going to be staying back here because I
want to make sure that I'm here to help Carrie,
because she's pregnant and we're you know, we're getting it.
We got like ultrasounds and all these great things that
we're doing now, and we wanted to wait, as a
lot of people who have had kids understand a few
months into things before telling everybody, because you know, you
(03:50):
don't know until things get a little bit further in
how it's going to go. And now the odds are
are certainly favorable. So yeah, we just want to tell
you all. And I appreciate those of you who, uh
I love. What they're asking is like, when are you
guys gonna have a baby? I'm like, look, we're putting
in the time. I don't know what to like. You know,
it's uh, it's a little bit in God's hands, or
(04:10):
a lot of it in God's hands, and we're very
very blessed and very thankful. I've wanted to be a
dad for a long time, and so we got a
little one on the way. So now this is where
there's a whole new thing coming on the show, where
like Clay is about to turn into the veteran cop
who's like, look, rookie, you don't even know what's coming
your way. You're gonna be changing diapers at three am.
You're not gonna know what time time.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
And we're gonna sell we can say it is my
new voice. So I want to open up phone lines
because we have a lot to be thankful for h
all over the country, and I know many of you
do too. I want let's have some advice coming in
for Buck here in this hour. Well we'll go back
to serious things in the third hour. We'll hit into
(04:53):
some of that. But eight hundred and two eight two
two eight eight two for baby one, it is hard
to But here's what I'll tell you. What I what
I told Buck. I said, one, take a baby moon,
and that has become more common for those of you
out there. When we had hours it was just kind
of starting. But it is before you have that baby,
(05:16):
and you're gonna have a lot of responsibility and it's
gonna be chaotic no matter who you are, go on
a trip, particularly before you have your first. So you
guys are gonna take a really good trip during Christmas. Buck,
you and carry are gonna get away a little bit.
That was my number one piece of advice because it's
hard if you until you have that kid, you don't know.
So you took that piece of advice. Yeah, it's funny,
(05:38):
Clay all.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
You know, sometimes we chat, well we always chat on
the commercial breaks, but we'll get into some random things.
He's like, so, what are you gonna do if the
baby was born? Like what's the plan? And it was
kind of like, I don't know, Like don't we just
like feed it and make sure it gets enough naps?
Like what do you mean? He's like, no, no, no, dude,
It's gonna be more than just like feeding it and
giving it naps. Like how is the schedule gonna work
for you?
Speaker 6 (05:59):
So?
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Yeah, well, I was just saying, because the baby is
doing April, and I'm like, hey, have you thought about
what your situation is gonna be? Are you gonna take
a certain amount of time off? Have you planned out?
Have you thought because you do your show from home?
I was like, have you thought about, you know, with
a newborn crying at all hours and up at all hours,
(06:20):
like how this is gonna And I remember this because
I think a lot of you who are dads out
there women think about having babies. I'm gonna be honest
with you. From the moment that you can start carrying
around a baby doll, women are aware about what babies require.
They are cognizant of knowledge, much like with weddings. Most men,
(06:44):
I don't know if this was your experience. I had
no idea about babies. And some of you may be
different if you have like much younger siblings and so
you've been around baby. I didn't have that. I've got
his sister whos two years younger, but I don't remember
her being a baby really, And so I had no
idea what I was walking into. Same thing with the wedding,
like I didn't know anything about weddings, like women have
(07:07):
thought about having babies and having weddings in a way
that virtually no man, ever, no straight man anyway, ever
has in his life. So when I'm talking with you,
I've been through three times, yes, but I was totally clueless.
The first one I had known lay was asking all
these questions. He's like, so what are you gonna do
and what's the schedule?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
And I was like, ah, I don't know. I thought
we just the baby happens and then we come home
and then you know, like you just it cries, you
feed it. I don't know. I'm gonna learn some things here.
So also we'd love for I know what we got
so many people. If you have any particular baby advice,
Carrie squared away. She's got this. She's like, she's all
prepped and ready to roll like mom foroymen, it's gonna
(07:47):
be She's gonna be.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Amazing more things about having babies that men never even contemplate.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
If you have new dad advice, okay, new dad advice,
like stuff that you would wish that you had known
for your first one. By the way, where you're going
into number one, you know, maybe God will bless us
with a second or a third or we'll see. But
if you're going into number one, what do you as
a guy? Okay, Carrie doesn't need any help, she's got
(08:13):
to square away. What do you as a guy? I
wish you had known beforehand? Because it was really funny.
Clay was asking me all these questions. I had no idea.
It's like, I don't even know. I had to think
about the things that Clay was asking and Carrie's like, yeah,
I've been thinking about that. I was like, I don't
know what's going on.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
So yeah, well it's a little bit different because you
work from home. So like for some dad, like a
lot of you out there that are dad's like, you
leave the home where the baby is and you go
to work and then you come back home to where
the baby is. But I'm like, you have a studio
in your place down in Miami, which is going to
be different. Also, I would bet mother in law's you
(08:51):
know her mom like, there's just going to be women
running through the house at all hours everywhere, which is good.
You're fortunate to have the ability to have those assets.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Let me tell you something, you'll appreciate it. We were
we had dinner last night with a couple of good
friends here in Miami and the wife, who's lovely. It
just sort of was like, well, we're talking about baby
stuff because obviously they know, and she goes, well, the
good news is you only work three hours a day,
And I was like, whoa hold on a second, Okay,
there is prep, madam. There is many hours of getting
(09:21):
geared up to do this three hour impromptu performance every day.
But I mean, technically it is a pretty great schedule.
So there's that.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
So you may hear starting in the spring, maybe occasionally
a crying baby. I'm super excited for you, because it
is just it's hard to explain what a transcendent feeling
you will have when the first baby arrives. And I'm
not taking shots at baby two or baby three, or
(09:51):
baby four or maybe you know, you got eight kids
out there, they're all very special, but that very first
time where you have the baby that you're holding and
you're like, oh my goodness, it is a truly unbelievable
experience that is hard to even quantify for anyone, and
not only for you and Carrie Buck, but also for
(10:12):
your mom and dad. Like I'm already looking my boys
are sixteen, fourteen, and ten now, and you know, hopefully
they are ways away still for marriage and having kids.
But I look around now as I get older, I'm like,
ten years from now is not that long. I had
my first kid when I was twenty eight, so my
you know, sixteen year old is twelve years difference from
(10:33):
how old I was when I had a kid, Grandpa.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Clay on the radio is not that far off, my.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Friend, And so that is really ideal because then you
get all the fun of the kid, but they but
you don't have to keep them all the time. That's
what I hear from the grandparents out there. You're like, hey,
you know, they're great, but there's a time where you're
not on the hook one hundred percent for them, which
is the best thing about being a grandparent. You can
spoil them. You don't have to worry about the president,
(11:00):
your setting because you're not mom or dad. But I'm
so excited because I didn't want to spoil it because
we've known this was coming for a while and I
just didn't want to step on anything or accidentally say
anything out there. So I'm glad that you were able
to tell this whole audience, and I know I can
already tell I just wanted to have mentioned flooded. People
are just so excited, So it's it's like it's a
(11:21):
beautiful thing.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
And those of you who are parents, I know that
you know you you've been able to experience this, and
we've you know, we're very excited. I didn't get married
until I was forty, and now I'm in my forties
and I'm having my first kid, and it's all it's
all gonna be great. I'm really excited about it. And
so yes, it's it's just I'm very grateful and I'm
very thankful, and going to Thanksgiving, I try to think
(11:45):
more about what these holidays actually mean other than the
delicious food and spending time with family. So, uh, you know,
we have Clay. We have a lot to be grateful
for him, and you do. You have a beautiful, wonderful
wife and three amazing kids, and you've got a great family,
and we have this incredible audience that really is just
we have friends all over the country, so you know,
it's almost like a little overwhelming. Sometimes this is really
(12:06):
a dream come true. And I appreciate all of you
so much. I really mean that from the bottom of
my heart.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
All right, let's have some fun advice for Buck. Dad.
Carrie is way smarter. She's a mom, she's on top
of things.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
She squared away. It's like she's been in Navy seal
training for mom duty.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
What would you think that Buck should know as a
new first time dad coming this spring. We're super excited
for at eight hundred two eight two two eight a
two and my goodness, what a perfect transition this is.

I would encourage you guys, you can go.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Look.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
I said, hey, what advice would you give Buck for
becoming a dad. For everybody out there? A lot of
people want to want to weigh in. Let's start here.
David and Jackson, Michigan. What advice do you have for buck.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
Well. First of all, congratulations. And I was as nervous
as a long tailed cat in a rocket chair factory
when I first found out confirmed. And I said to myself,
oh my, I don't know what to do. Well, there's
three things I learned. You can't have enough diapers, make
(15:11):
sure you ship them out quick. And when when you
hear another kid crying, say in public, or you know,
just be glad it's not yours. And it comes naturally, bucket,
really does. I went to a friend of mine, so coin,
(15:33):
I said, what best piece of advice can you give me?
He said, Dave, It'll come naturally, and go bye, Gosh
with God it did.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
Thank you for the Paul. But by the way, Carrie
will like this.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
One.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
One of my friends who was in media has already responded.
He writes at the New York Post Ryan Glasspiegel. He said,
by diapers and wipes at Costco, you will save thousands
of dollars in the aggregate. Go ahead and deluse your house.
Just have them stacked. A lot of people went a
weigh in up next two we got here. We have
(16:07):
got read in Omaha, Nebraska. What do you got for him?
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (16:12):
Congratulations buck, I always tell my young friends getting married easy,
but having a baby is when the real work starts.
So your funniest sleep because the first five months it's
all your sleep's gonna be interrupted. And every morning when
you wake up, look over at Cherry and just say,
I'm a dirty dog. What can I do for you
(16:34):
to help you today?
Speaker 4 (16:36):
That's that's that is great advice because I you know
there is pure chaos coming really good. Luke in Minnesota.
Speaker 9 (16:49):
Hey, congratulations, Buck, Megadiddo's you guys say Buck, I was
in your shoes two years ago, and I would say
the best advice someone gave me and we put it
into practice is sleep training around four to six months.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
If your your son's receptive to it, try that sleep training,
get them on a schedule, and it will be life changing.
I can promise you. Once you get that baby sleeping
on a schedule and eventually throughout the night is sole
life changing. You'll get your career, your daytime back on track.
Speaker 10 (17:21):
Is awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
So congratulations and good luck.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Yeah, let me give you one piece of advice, and
my wife would give there's all sorts of baby books
out there. The best one that my wife would say
the Happiest Baby on the Block. This book. By the
time we had our third she read it. Obviously, every
kid's different. The Happiest Baby on the Block, I think
Laura would say, is the best baby book that she
(17:46):
has ever read. Some of you are going to be
familiar with that. We'll keep taking your calls. By the way,
eight hundred and two two two eight a two. Congrats
to Buck and carry on the upcoming baby boy. And
you know there's something else I want to tell you.

(19:05):
So I got to announce I'll be a dad in April.
Carrie and I are having a little baby boy. We're very,
very excited and as as anticipated. I think we have
a lot of wonderful parents out there who are sharing
all of their best bits of advice and I appreciate
you doing it now. This is part of me what
I am thankful for because we're going into Thanksgiving and
(19:25):
I'm going to be off next week. Clay is taken
over for a few days and then we'll be I
think we have a well anyway, We've got some special
shows coming up later on next week, but a lot
of things coming in the inbox and also calls. Let's
get to some of the VIPs here at clientbuck dot com.
Kim writes, Buck, I do as soon as you said
you had a special announcement what was coming. I turned
(19:47):
to my husband Bill in my excitement and said, Carrie's pregnant. Congratulations.
I couldn't be happier for you both. Little baby boy's
gonna have the best parents. Even if you don't feel
like you're at your best, It's a blessed little guy.
My advice enjoy your vacation and family time next week.
April be here before you know it. I will give
Clay a particular high five on this one because I've
I've sort of just been like, yeah, like we got
(20:09):
time and whatever. He's like, no, no, no, go do things.
Go do things now that you can do without having
to be, you know, a parent dealing with a baby. Right,
So we're I'm taking next week to be with my
family in New York to have a you know, this
will be kind of the last adult Thanksgiving that I
think I'm up. We don't have a lot of I've
got a little nephew, but my siblings, other siblings haven't
(20:30):
had their kids yet, so this will be like, you know,
this will be the Thanksgiving Clay where there's like The
Four Seasons playing in the background. And next year it's
gonna be a little more like Barney the Dinosaur and Plato.
You know, it's gonna be a different vibe.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
I will say this one of the best pieces of
advice I got, and I didn't understand it at the time.
Somebody said, from now on, you don't have vacations, you
have family trips. A family trip is very different than
of a because until you you know, when you become an
adult and you go on vacation, like you can just
(21:06):
kind of chill. You're by the pool. You gotta you know,
your fruity drink whatever it is kids by water. I
mean it is minor now old enough where like you
don't have to have your head on a swivel at
every moment. But the family trip thing. Whoever coined that,
And I don't know that. Somebody told me that is
(21:29):
so true because the family trip is often way more
draining than a vacation would be. And I know there's
a lot of dads and moms out there right now
who have had that experience where you go on quote vacation,
it's really just a family trip and you get back
and going to work is actually way more relaxing than
being on vacation or race away from work. I mean
(21:50):
that is a that is a big takeaway. I see
a bunch of advice rolling in, by the way, it's
all over social media. This one's a good one. I
haven't seen this before. Richard sent and said anything said
between nine pm and six am doesn't count towards the marriage.
There's a lot of debates about ownership of the baby.
When sleep is lacking in the middle of the night,
(22:12):
that is, by far, if you wanted to know, the
biggest challenge, and my wife was an absolute trooper about this,
but not sleeping, and every baby is different, and everybody's
gonna give you advice on how to get the baby
to sleep. Every kid is different. That's just the reality.
Summer easier than others. My oldest by far the most
difficult of the babies. Now, I do think buck advice
(22:34):
as well. More kids you have, the more relaxed you are,
and I do think that translates with the baby. Baby
number one, it's like it's a full on carnival frenzy zoo.
Every single day.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
We've got VIP email from Dale one thing I would
recommend is to write things down, funny stories, events, things
they say and do, because they will ask when they
are older, and it's great to tell them story worries
about their childhood. Love the show. Ps Uh. They make
tactical diaper bags for on the go travel. All right,
I'm gonna have to trade in my like plate carrier
(23:11):
and ar at the range for a tactical diaper bag clay.
This is where I'm heading.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
Also, somebody wrote in the VIPs is one hundred percent correct.
You're gonna get thrown up on and you're gonna get
pooped on, probably a lot.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I will say I am. I am not squeamish, So
that's that part of it. I have. No that's one
of the parts of being a doctor that I could
have handled really well or whatever. I don't. That stuff
doesn't bother me. Uh So I'm prepared. I'm prepared for
that one. I'm also someone wrote in don't be one
of those parents who makes everybody put on hand sanitizer
before they before they hold the baby. Is that a
(23:46):
thing I'd never heard of that before. I'm not. I mean,
that's not my viob. I hate hand sanitizer. It smells
and is basically worthless. All right, this is another thing.
Wash your hands, yes, hand sanitizer trash.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Laura Travis in the car drive to Florida for Thanksgiving
with our youngest, Nash says, tell dad he's stressing buck
out with all of the horror stories and advice. So
Mike Nations alike, fellow, thank you for listening, Nash. Usually
he's in school. He got out of school early fourth
grade today to leave for vacation with mom and his grandma.
(24:20):
So they're in the car. Thank you for listening, Nash.
So I'll try not to stress you, Laura says, And
I haven't even read this yet. So the advice I
would give him is to carry all the stuff and
do it without being asked. And also that means like
car seats, baby carriers, bags, bring it all in. Don't
(24:43):
even be asked to do it, just start carrying it all.
And she reminds me car seats are impossible to put in,
and I know there's a lot of dads out there
that are going to be nodding there. The car seats.
They has to be an easier way to a fix
car our seats. The difficulty of getting a modern day
(25:04):
car seat in staggered me, and I was even taking
them out. When the kids get old enough, prepare yourself
for a mortal struggle for life and death when it
comes to getting a car seat properly affixed in your home.
I'm just telling you.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I mean when my little toddler nephew was visiting us
last year at spring break, I tried to take on
for our car the car seat thing, and I will
tell you I was defeated. I was like, I don't
get it, Like where does the strap go and the
things and whatever. My sister, because she's done it before,
had to step in and and affix the car seat properly.
So I will try to learn how to do that.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
But yeah, and the beast burden advice is a good one, buck,
because you will be amazed at the weight that is
just sheerly managed with moving a child. I mean, the
whether it's the car, whether it's the carriers. The other
thing I will say is around about six months, you
(26:05):
really early on. There's very little personality you can see.
If you're not if you haven't spent much time around babies,
I think you kind of anticipate. Oh, like the first
several months, you're not getting a lot of feedback back, right,
You're not getting a lot of smiles, You're not getting
a lot of interaction. So those first several months, it is,
it can be a challenge. But once you start getting
(26:27):
that smile and you start getting a little bit of
a giggle and you can start to see truly the personality,
it's pretty extraordinary. So pictures documented as best you can,
because it's amazing how quickly it happens.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
We've got ad rights in hold on a second O, sorry,
Richard writes in oh no, you already did that one.
I'm trying to get to one that's new. Debbie, be
armed with tissues or handkerchiefs when you hold that baby
for the first time. Clay was not exaggerating about the
feeling you will have. It's absolutely overwhelming. I hope everything
goes smoothly for you and Carrie. You'll be in my
prayers for a healthy baby. Thank you, very very much.
(27:01):
Philip writes in nothing prepares you for the first time
you are peede, puked or pooped on, but remember it
will wash off. Yeah no again, I'm not you know
like I I you know, I know a dog is
not a baby, but like, you know whatever, you know, Ginger,
she's she's so all the photos you see on Instagram
of Ginger, she's so fluffy and beautiful. She's a mangy
little mutt sometimes and she gets you know, you know,
(27:23):
things stuck to her fur. Let's just say, you know,
I think it's a yellow.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
I will tell you buck having a dog, you're gonna
be like dogs are easy.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
I'm just saying anybody out there that has like, has
a dog and then goes to kid like there's a
big We got a bunch of calls. By the way,
Zay in Utah, what you got for his nane?
Speaker 6 (27:44):
Yeah? So I told that.
Speaker 11 (27:46):
Yeah, so I told the screener. I got two pieces
of advice, but a third one popped up.
Speaker 6 (27:50):
I'll start with number one.
Speaker 11 (27:52):
If you guys are doing a mother's milk, make sure
there's a lot of really small cheap parts for the pumps.
Make sure you have extras to those on hands because
they do break easily. Number two is to make sure
you let the baby self suit or you will not
sleep at night. We just had baby number three and
(28:14):
my wife has been holding him constantly. He'll be two
months old.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
On Monday and.
Speaker 11 (28:20):
It's starting to get to be a nightmare to sleep.
So make sure you let the baby self suit. And
then three on the car seat thing. It's a little
extra money, but there is a car seat that it
unfolds into a stroller, making carrying and transportation a life saver.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
So are you with me? By the way, would you
have ever believed how difficult putting car seat in a
car would be?
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (28:45):
No, it's they are impossible. I hate it every time
my gran my parents take the kid for you know,
to go out to the zoo or to do something
to give us a little bit of a break. My
dad tries to put car seats in the car every time,
and every time he comes back to me like twenty
minutes later and he says, well, I did my best.
(29:06):
Can you go do it?
Speaker 4 (29:08):
I did just switch cars. I mean, would be my
advice oftentimes with the car seats. Thanks for the call.
Dave in San Diego wants the way and Dave, what
you got for Buck?
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Hey?
Speaker 10 (29:20):
Congratulations Buck. First off, there's a lot of good advice
out there. I've had three boys. They're thirty, twenty six,
and twenty four. I'll tell you this they're hard in
their younger years, they're inquisitive, They're gonna want to get
into everything. Don't be in such a hurry for them
to start crawling and then to start walking, because once
(29:41):
they start moving and walking, it's a whole other world.
But I know with you guys as parents, they'll be
growing up to be great kids. You'll think a lot
of pictures, you'll take a lot of videos. You'll find
as you have kid two, three, and four, all of
a sudden there's not as many pictures and videos for
kid number three in number four, So enjoy them all.
(30:06):
You will find that they are all different, as Clay
could probably.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
Attest to it.
Speaker 10 (30:12):
Yes, speaking about personalities, it's great to watch, and it's
a it's a great experience and it will change your life.
But you'll be fine with it, and that one advice,
it'll come natural.
Speaker 6 (30:24):
That's the best.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Thank you, Thank you very much. I appreciate all that.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
And my mom box says, keep your mother in law happy, fed,
and appreciate it. Oh for sure, mother in law, mother
in law, not the mother the mother in law. Yes,
oh no, I'm I'm I promise that is that is
part of the mission here. We do have an excellent
granny brigade that we're going to be able to call
upon to both advise and assist as we need in
(30:49):
this mission. So we've got you know, Carrie is the
second of four kids and I am the second of
four kids.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
So both of our moms have you know, they've they've
been to some put them in work. Yeah, they've they've
done it. So ut a lot of mommy expertise and
soon to be granny expertise that we'll be calling upon there.
So we're very excited about it. Yeah, it'll it'll be fantastic.
And we actually weren't planning this, but uh, you're talking
about Preborn here for a second. And you know, as
(31:19):
as a dad who's going to and has been for
months going to ultrasound appointments, let me tell you the
amazing work that Preborn does. It hits differently when you're
going to see what they do and how they're helping
these women and you yourself are going with your own
wife and seeing the little heartbeat and seeing what's going
on with those ultrasounds, and here's Preborne's mission. It's just
so straightforward and it's so beautiful. They want to help
(31:41):
these moms make the right decision, the decision for life
for that tiny baby when they see that heartbeat on ultrasound,
just like the heartbeat that I've been seeing from my
little boy for months now on ultrasound. Preborn needs your help.
They don't get any money from the government. They don't
get any money from these these activist groups on the left,
that's for sure. They don't like what Preborn's doing, and
(32:02):
that's a very sad thing. But Preborn is doing God's
work day and day out, trying to help moms with
their pregnancies and to have happy little baby boys and
baby girls. And the step in this process that gets
it going I was talking about it is that ultrasound.
The ultrasound process is where Preborn introduces the mother to
(32:23):
bed or tiny boy tiny girl in the womb. And
each one of these ultrasounds has a cost to it.
They're a nonprofit, so they need your help. Each ultrasound
costs Preborn just twenty eight dollars, So if you can
donate that amount, or even five times that amount, say
one hundred and forty dollars, it's tax deductible. And I've
seen the mission that they do and like I said
(32:43):
now that I'm going to be a dad, and it's
so exciting, it's so beautiful. The more people out there
that we can just more moms, that we can just
show what's really going on and establish that divine connection
between mother and baby, the more lives are saved. Preborn's
mission is so critical. Please consider a donation today using
your cell phone dial pound two five zero, say the
(33:05):
word baby. That's pound two five zero from your cell phone,
say baby, or go online to preborn dot com, slash Buck,

(35:07):
holiday season, and you get an autograph copy of the
book buck. Although we could have some fun with this,
our good friend Sonny Hostin has been forced three different
times this week to read legal notices because of things
that she has said on the air. Three times. This
has never happened, knock on wood. In the nearly four
(35:28):
year history of this show with us on, We've never
had to read a lawyer's notice because of something we
had to say. This has now happened for a third time.
Listen to how angry Sonny Hostin was on the Dumbest
show on television when the lawyers made her read for
a third time this I have a legal note.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Matt Gates has long denied all allegations and has not
been charged with any crime. Gates previously dismissed allegations that
he paid for sex, saying that quote someone is trying
to recategorize my generosity to ex girlfriends as something more
on tower another legal note. Pete Hegseth's lawyer said he
made the woman in twenty twenty three to head off
(36:07):
the threat of a basis lawsuit. He has denied any wrongdoing.
Just call the show legal note from now on.
Speaker 4 (36:13):
And by the way, this is yesterday Buck cut four.
That's the third one. Here was yesterday her also having
to do a legal note. Maybe we'll play that in
the third hour. They're queueing the music here. Big awesome news.
Super excited for Buck. Will continue to take some of
(36:33):
your calls of advice. But we have a guest, I believe,
joining us at the top of the next hour who
was going to dive in and talk about what's she
talking about? Daniel penny Clay.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
She's been covering to Daniel Penry trial every day in
the courtroom. The defense is underway right now. The prosecution
has rested Daniel penny We talked to Uncle Bill yesterday.
Bill O'Reilly about this. He's optimistic about where this is going.
For penny Clay, I am not as optimistic. I'm concerned.
We'll talk to somebody who's been there day in and
day out in the trial, Covernor for the New York Post.
(37:05):
That's up next.
All right, everybody, welcome. Second hour of Clay and Bought
kicks off right now, and before we get back into
all of the news, this is my last day to
chat with you until after Thanksgiving because I'm off next week.
Clay will be in for a few days Rocket and solo,
but I'm taken next week off, going to be with
my family up in NYC. And I wanted to just say,
(00:24):
as we're going into Thanksgiving, how thankful I am for
all of you, for your confidence, your friendship, your listenership,
also for Clay as a phenomenal co host, and for
our team, the team that in many cases was with
Rush for over twenty years. They've stayed with us. I
have a beautiful family, a lot to be thankful for.
(00:46):
Clay has a beautiful family and a lot to be
thankful for. So we just appreciate all of you so
very much, and you let us do what I think
is the greatest job in the world, truly, and I
Clay knows I was saying this, There is no job
that I would leave this job for, even you know,
even some of these crazy big jobs that people are
talking about it right now, the administration. I love what
we do. I love what I get to do every day,
(01:07):
very grateful, and I wanted to make a little special
announcement because some of you have been asking about this
for a while. So my wife, Carrie, whom I love
more than anything and is incredible and phenomenal, and she's
bringing ginger apparently for you those of you can see
the video. Honey, would you come around please. I haven't
brought Carrie on the radio before, but I just wanted
her to tell you all, as we are going to
(01:28):
Thanksgiving what we are particularly thankful for this year. Go ahead, honey, We're.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Having a baby in twenty five.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
It's very exciting.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Love you, honey, Love And then we got at that.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
So cute, So everybody out there, bring her back again,
because I think that was a little bit hard to hear.
She's got ginger for people on video. Carrie, you just
told everybody incredible news. Twenty twenty five. You guys are
going to be adding a baby to the family and
it's due in April. We got a baby, So how
(02:01):
are you? How is Carrie feeling? Everybody wants to know
and is it a boy or a girl? Can you
tell us? Can you tell us boy or girl? It's
a boy, a little James. Ye, baby boy, James baby. Well,
first of all, this is amazing. Congratulations to Carrie and
she is doing.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Grateful for you all for always listening to claim Buck
and love meeting you around the country, whether it's in
an airport in New City or even around here in Miami.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
So you sorry, this is such awesome news, Buck, congratulations
to both give you. Carrie is feeling well right, She's
doing well. Baby is scheduled in April. We can say that,
I think now so for all of us, a great
little bundle of joy rolling into the holiday season. It's
funny now, Buck, because I think you could probably say
(02:51):
it now what of the ads that you were doing.
It's actually uh for a IFCJ. You said during the conversation,
some people might have heard. Oh, and we had a
moment came to me like people were like, is Buck
having a baby? Like not very many people heard.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
But so this is actually a good a good lesson.
I love you, honey. This is a good lesson about
media in general, or just the world that we live in,
which is all all guns are always loaded, all mics
are always live. We just had a little bit of
a mic thing where it was open. After the show,
we were doing a little taping and I spoke to Yaile,
who's become a dear friend of ours from IFCJ, and
(03:30):
I let her know that Clay is going to Israel,
but I'm going to be staying back here because I
want to make sure that I'm here to help Carrie,
because she's pregnant and we're you know, we're getting it.
We got like ultrasounds and all these great things that
we're doing now, and we wanted to wait, as a
lot of people who have had kids understand a few
months into things before telling everybody, because you know, you
(03:50):
don't know until things get a little bit further in
how it's going to go. And now the odds are
are certainly favorable. So yeah, we just want to tell
you all. And I appreciate those of you who, uh
I love. What they're asking is like, when are you
guys gonna have a baby? I'm like, look, we're putting
in the time. I don't know what to like. You know,
it's uh, it's a little bit in God's hands, or
(04:10):
a lot of it in God's hands, and we're very
very blessed and very thankful. I've wanted to be a
dad for a long time, and so we got a
little one on the way. So now this is where
there's a whole new thing coming on the show, where
like Clay is about to turn into the veteran cop
who's like, look, rookie, you don't even know what's coming
your way. You're gonna be changing diapers at three am.
You're not gonna know what time time.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
And we're gonna sell we can say it is my
new voice. So I want to open up phone lines
because we have a lot to be thankful for h
all over the country, and I know many of you
do too. I want let's have some advice coming in
for Buck here in this hour. Well we'll go back
to serious things in the third hour. We'll hit into
(04:53):
some of that. But eight hundred and two eight two
two eight eight two for baby one, it is hard
to But here's what I'll tell you. What I what
I told Buck. I said, one, take a baby moon,
and that has become more common for those of you
out there. When we had hours it was just kind
of starting. But it is before you have that baby,
(05:16):
and you're gonna have a lot of responsibility and it's
gonna be chaotic no matter who you are, go on
a trip, particularly before you have your first. So you
guys are gonna take a really good trip during Christmas. Buck,
you and carry are gonna get away a little bit.
That was my number one piece of advice because it's
hard if you until you have that kid, you don't know.
So you took that piece of advice. Yeah, it's funny,
(05:38):
Clay all.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
You know, sometimes we chat, well we always chat on
the commercial breaks, but we'll get into some random things.
He's like, so, what are you gonna do if the
baby was born? Like what's the plan? And it was
kind of like, I don't know, Like don't we just
like feed it and make sure it gets enough naps?
Like what do you mean? He's like, no, no, no, dude,
It's gonna be more than just like feeding it and
giving it naps. Like how is the schedule gonna work
for you?
Speaker 6 (05:59):
So?
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Yeah, well, I was just saying, because the baby is
doing April, and I'm like, hey, have you thought about
what your situation is gonna be? Are you gonna take
a certain amount of time off? Have you planned out?
Have you thought because you do your show from home?
I was like, have you thought about, you know, with
a newborn crying at all hours and up at all hours,
(06:20):
like how this is gonna And I remember this because
I think a lot of you who are dads out
there women think about having babies. I'm gonna be honest
with you. From the moment that you can start carrying
around a baby doll, women are aware about what babies require.
They are cognizant of knowledge, much like with weddings. Most men,
(06:44):
I don't know if this was your experience. I had
no idea about babies. And some of you may be
different if you have like much younger siblings and so
you've been around baby. I didn't have that. I've got
his sister whos two years younger, but I don't remember
her being a baby really, And so I had no
idea what I was walking into. Same thing with the wedding,
like I didn't know anything about weddings, like women have
(07:07):
thought about having babies and having weddings in a way
that virtually no man, ever, no straight man anyway, ever
has in his life. So when I'm talking with you,
I've been through three times, yes, but I was totally clueless.
The first one I had known lay was asking all
these questions. He's like, so what are you gonna do
and what's the schedule?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
And I was like, ah, I don't know. I thought
we just the baby happens and then we come home
and then you know, like you just it cries, you
feed it. I don't know. I'm gonna learn some things here.
So also we'd love for I know what we got
so many people. If you have any particular baby advice,
Carrie squared away. She's got this. She's like, she's all
prepped and ready to roll like mom foroymen, it's gonna
(07:47):
be She's gonna be.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Amazing more things about having babies that men never even contemplate.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
If you have new dad advice, okay, new dad advice,
like stuff that you would wish that you had known
for your first one. By the way, where you're going
into number one, you know, maybe God will bless us
with a second or a third or we'll see. But
if you're going into number one, what do you as
a guy? Okay, Carrie doesn't need any help, she's got
(08:13):
to square away. What do you as a guy? I
wish you had known beforehand? Because it was really funny.
Clay was asking me all these questions. I had no idea.
It's like, I don't even know. I had to think
about the things that Clay was asking and Carrie's like, yeah,
I've been thinking about that. I was like, I don't
know what's going on.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
So yeah, well it's a little bit different because you
work from home. So like for some dad, like a
lot of you out there that are dad's like, you
leave the home where the baby is and you go
to work and then you come back home to where
the baby is. But I'm like, you have a studio
in your place down in Miami, which is going to
be different. Also, I would bet mother in law's you
(08:51):
know her mom like, there's just going to be women
running through the house at all hours everywhere, which is good.
You're fortunate to have the ability to have those assets.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Let me tell you something, you'll appreciate it. We were
we had dinner last night with a couple of good
friends here in Miami and the wife, who's lovely. It
just sort of was like, well, we're talking about baby
stuff because obviously they know, and she goes, well, the
good news is you only work three hours a day,
And I was like, whoa hold on a second, Okay,
there is prep, madam. There is many hours of getting
(09:21):
geared up to do this three hour impromptu performance every day.
But I mean, technically it is a pretty great schedule.
So there's that.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
So you may hear starting in the spring, maybe occasionally
a crying baby. I'm super excited for you, because it
is just it's hard to explain what a transcendent feeling
you will have when the first baby arrives. And I'm
not taking shots at baby two or baby three, or
(09:51):
baby four or maybe you know, you got eight kids
out there, they're all very special, but that very first
time where you have the baby that you're holding and
you're like, oh my goodness, it is a truly unbelievable
experience that is hard to even quantify for anyone, and
not only for you and Carrie Buck, but also for
(10:12):
your mom and dad. Like I'm already looking my boys
are sixteen, fourteen, and ten now, and you know, hopefully
they are ways away still for marriage and having kids.
But I look around now as I get older, I'm like,
ten years from now is not that long. I had
my first kid when I was twenty eight, so my
you know, sixteen year old is twelve years difference from
(10:33):
how old I was when I had a kid, Grandpa.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Clay on the radio is not that far off, my.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
Friend, And so that is really ideal because then you
get all the fun of the kid, but they but
you don't have to keep them all the time. That's
what I hear from the grandparents out there. You're like, hey,
you know, they're great, but there's a time where you're
not on the hook one hundred percent for them, which
is the best thing about being a grandparent. You can
spoil them. You don't have to worry about the president,
(11:00):
your setting because you're not mom or dad. But I'm
so excited because I didn't want to spoil it because
we've known this was coming for a while and I
just didn't want to step on anything or accidentally say
anything out there. So I'm glad that you were able
to tell this whole audience, and I know I can
already tell I just wanted to have mentioned flooded. People
are just so excited, So it's it's like it's a
(11:21):
beautiful thing.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
And those of you who are parents, I know that
you know you you've been able to experience this, and
we've you know, we're very excited. I didn't get married
until I was forty, and now I'm in my forties
and I'm having my first kid, and it's all it's
all gonna be great. I'm really excited about it. And
so yes, it's it's just I'm very grateful and I'm
very thankful, and going to Thanksgiving, I try to think
(11:45):
more about what these holidays actually mean other than the
delicious food and spending time with family. So, uh, you know,
we have Clay. We have a lot to be grateful
for him, and you do. You have a beautiful, wonderful
wife and three amazing kids, and you've got a great family,
and we have this incredible audience that really is just
we have friends all over the country, so you know,
it's almost like a little overwhelming. Sometimes this is really
(12:06):
a dream come true. And I appreciate all of you
so much. I really mean that from the bottom of
my heart.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
All right, let's have some fun advice for Buck. Dad.
Carrie is way smarter. She's a mom, she's on top

If you don't want to call in, if you want Buck,
I would encourage you guys, you can go.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Look.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
I said, hey, what advice would you give Buck for
becoming a dad. For everybody out there? A lot of
people want to want to weigh in. Let's start here.
David and Jackson, Michigan. What advice do you have for buck.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
Well. First of all, congratulations. And I was as nervous
as a long tailed cat in a rocket chair factory
when I first found out confirmed. And I said to myself,
oh my, I don't know what to do. Well, there's
three things I learned. You can't have enough diapers, make
(15:11):
sure you ship them out quick. And when when you
hear another kid crying, say in public, or you know,
just be glad it's not yours. And it comes naturally, bucket,
really does. I went to a friend of mine, so coin,
(15:33):
I said, what best piece of advice can you give me?
He said, Dave, It'll come naturally, and go bye, Gosh
with God it did.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
Thank you for the Paul. But by the way, Carrie
will like this.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
One.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
One of my friends who was in media has already responded.
He writes at the New York Post Ryan Glasspiegel. He said,
by diapers and wipes at Costco, you will save thousands
of dollars in the aggregate. Go ahead and deluse your house.
Just have them stacked. A lot of people went a
weigh in up next two we got here. We have
(16:07):
got read in Omaha, Nebraska. What do you got for him?
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (16:12):
Congratulations buck, I always tell my young friends getting married easy,
but having a baby is when the real work starts.
So your funniest sleep because the first five months it's
all your sleep's gonna be interrupted. And every morning when
you wake up, look over at Cherry and just say,
I'm a dirty dog. What can I do for you
(16:34):
to help you today?
Speaker 4 (16:36):
That's that's that is great advice because I you know
there is pure chaos coming really good. Luke in Minnesota.
Speaker 9 (16:49):
Hey, congratulations, Buck, Megadiddo's you guys say Buck, I was
in your shoes two years ago, and I would say
the best advice someone gave me and we put it
into practice is sleep training around four to six months.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
If your your son's receptive to it, try that sleep training,
get them on a schedule, and it will be life changing.
I can promise you. Once you get that baby sleeping
on a schedule and eventually throughout the night is sole
life changing. You'll get your career, your daytime back on track.
Speaker 10 (17:21):
Is awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
So congratulations and good luck.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Yeah, let me give you one piece of advice, and
my wife would give there's all sorts of baby books
out there. The best one that my wife would say
the Happiest Baby on the Block. This book. By the
time we had our third she read it. Obviously, every
kid's different. The Happiest Baby on the Block, I think
Laura would say, is the best baby book that she
(17:46):
has ever read. Some of you are going to be
familiar with that. We'll keep taking your calls. By the way,
eight hundred and two two two eight a two. Congrats
to Buck and carry on the upcoming baby boy. And
you know there's something else I want to tell you.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Mantis X. Mantis X, my friends, if you want to
get good at something, you gotta practice. But how often
can you get to the range? I mean, for most
of us, it's not a daily thing, maybe not even
a weekly thing. But when you're at the range, you
want to be as accurate you can be, and you
want your skills to be improving each time you go.
How do you do this? The mantis X Electronic Training
System for your firearm. It's high tech but so easy
(18:23):
to use. You attach the mantis X system to your firearm,
rifle or pistol like a weapon light. You download the
app to your phone, and then you start going through
the drills. I have it here at home. You just
get better week in and week out as you use it.
It's fun and it's just nice to be improving on
your skills without spending so much money on Ammo. Go

the shooter in your family for the holidays. Go to

Mantisx maismantis x dot com. Welcome back into Clay and Buck.
(19:05):
So I got to announce I'll be a dad in April.
Carrie and I are having a little baby boy. We're very,
very excited and as as anticipated. I think we have
a lot of wonderful parents out there who are sharing
all of their best bits of advice and I appreciate
you doing it now. This is part of me what
I am thankful for because we're going into Thanksgiving and
(19:25):
I'm going to be off next week. Clay is taken
over for a few days and then we'll be I
think we have a well anyway, We've got some special
shows coming up later on next week, but a lot
of things coming in the inbox and also calls. Let's
get to some of the VIPs here at clientbuck dot com.
Kim writes, Buck, I do as soon as you said
you had a special announcement what was coming. I turned
(19:47):
to my husband Bill in my excitement and said, Carrie's pregnant. Congratulations.
I couldn't be happier for you both. Little baby boy's
gonna have the best parents. Even if you don't feel
like you're at your best, It's a blessed little guy.
My advice enjoy your vacation and family time next week.
April be here before you know it. I will give
Clay a particular high five on this one because I've
I've sort of just been like, yeah, like we got
(20:09):
time and whatever. He's like, no, no, no, go do things.
Go do things now that you can do without having
to be, you know, a parent dealing with a baby. Right,
So we're I'm taking next week to be with my
family in New York to have a you know, this
will be kind of the last adult Thanksgiving that I
think I'm up. We don't have a lot of I've
got a little nephew, but my siblings, other siblings haven't
(20:30):
had their kids yet, so this will be like, you know,
this will be the Thanksgiving Clay where there's like The
Four Seasons playing in the background. And next year it's
gonna be a little more like Barney the Dinosaur and Plato.
You know, it's gonna be a different vibe.
Speaker 4 (20:43):
I will say this one of the best pieces of
advice I got, and I didn't understand it at the time.
Somebody said, from now on, you don't have vacations, you
have family trips. A family trip is very different than
of a because until you you know, when you become an
adult and you go on vacation, like you can just
(21:06):
kind of chill. You're by the pool. You gotta you know,
your fruity drink whatever it is kids by water. I
mean it is minor now old enough where like you
don't have to have your head on a swivel at
every moment. But the family trip thing. Whoever coined that,
And I don't know that. Somebody told me that is
(21:29):
so true because the family trip is often way more
draining than a vacation would be. And I know there's
a lot of dads and moms out there right now
who have had that experience where you go on quote vacation,
it's really just a family trip and you get back
and going to work is actually way more relaxing than
being on vacation or race away from work. I mean
(21:50):
that is a that is a big takeaway. I see
a bunch of advice rolling in, by the way, it's
all over social media. This one's a good one. I
haven't seen this before. Richard sent and said anything said
between nine pm and six am doesn't count towards the marriage.
There's a lot of debates about ownership of the baby.
When sleep is lacking in the middle of the night,
(22:12):
that is, by far, if you wanted to know, the
biggest challenge, and my wife was an absolute trooper about this,
but not sleeping, and every baby is different, and everybody's
gonna give you advice on how to get the baby
to sleep. Every kid is different. That's just the reality.
Summer easier than others. My oldest by far the most
difficult of the babies. Now, I do think buck advice
(22:34):
as well. More kids you have, the more relaxed you are,
and I do think that translates with the baby. Baby
number one, it's like it's a full on carnival frenzy zoo.
Every single day.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
We've got VIP email from Dale one thing I would
recommend is to write things down, funny stories, events, things
they say and do, because they will ask when they
are older, and it's great to tell them story worries
about their childhood. Love the show. Ps Uh. They make
tactical diaper bags for on the go travel. All right,
I'm gonna have to trade in my like plate carrier
(23:11):
and ar at the range for a tactical diaper bag clay.
This is where I'm heading.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
Also, somebody wrote in the VIPs is one hundred percent correct.
You're gonna get thrown up on and you're gonna get
pooped on, probably a lot.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
I will say I am. I am not squeamish, So
that's that part of it. I have. No that's one
of the parts of being a doctor that I could
have handled really well or whatever. I don't. That stuff
doesn't bother me. Uh So I'm prepared. I'm prepared for
that one. I'm also someone wrote in don't be one
of those parents who makes everybody put on hand sanitizer
before they before they hold the baby. Is that a
(23:46):
thing I'd never heard of that before. I'm not. I mean,
that's not my viob. I hate hand sanitizer. It smells
and is basically worthless. All right, this is another thing.
Wash your hands, yes, hand sanitizer trash.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Laura Travis in the car drive to Florida for Thanksgiving
with our youngest, Nash says, tell dad he's stressing buck
out with all of the horror stories and advice. So
Mike Nations alike, fellow, thank you for listening, Nash. Usually
he's in school. He got out of school early fourth
grade today to leave for vacation with mom and his grandma.
(24:20):
So they're in the car. Thank you for listening, Nash.
So I'll try not to stress you, Laura says, And
I haven't even read this yet. So the advice I
would give him is to carry all the stuff and
do it without being asked. And also that means like
car seats, baby carriers, bags, bring it all in. Don't
(24:43):
even be asked to do it, just start carrying it all.
And she reminds me car seats are impossible to put in,
and I know there's a lot of dads out there
that are going to be nodding there. The car seats.
They has to be an easier way to a fix
car our seats. The difficulty of getting a modern day
(25:04):
car seat in staggered me, and I was even taking
them out. When the kids get old enough, prepare yourself
for a mortal struggle for life and death when it
comes to getting a car seat properly affixed in your home.
I'm just telling you.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I mean when my little toddler nephew was visiting us
last year at spring break, I tried to take on
for our car the car seat thing, and I will
tell you I was defeated. I was like, I don't
get it, Like where does the strap go and the
things and whatever. My sister, because she's done it before,
had to step in and and affix the car seat properly.
So I will try to learn how to do that.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
But yeah, and the beast burden advice is a good one, buck,
because you will be amazed at the weight that is
just sheerly managed with moving a child. I mean, the
whether it's the car, whether it's the carriers. The other
thing I will say is around about six months, you
(26:05):
really early on. There's very little personality you can see.
If you're not if you haven't spent much time around babies,
I think you kind of anticipate. Oh, like the first
several months, you're not getting a lot of feedback back, right,
You're not getting a lot of smiles, You're not getting
a lot of interaction. So those first several months, it is,
it can be a challenge. But once you start getting
(26:27):
that smile and you start getting a little bit of
a giggle and you can start to see truly the personality,
it's pretty extraordinary. So pictures documented as best you can,
because it's amazing how quickly it happens.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
We've got ad rights in hold on a second O, sorry,
Richard writes in oh no, you already did that one.
I'm trying to get to one that's new. Debbie, be
armed with tissues or handkerchiefs when you hold that baby
for the first time. Clay was not exaggerating about the
feeling you will have. It's absolutely overwhelming. I hope everything
goes smoothly for you and Carrie. You'll be in my
prayers for a healthy baby. Thank you, very very much.
(27:01):
Philip writes in nothing prepares you for the first time
you are peede, puked or pooped on, but remember it
will wash off. Yeah no again, I'm not you know
like I I you know, I know a dog is
not a baby, but like, you know whatever, you know, Ginger,
she's she's so all the photos you see on Instagram
of Ginger, she's so fluffy and beautiful. She's a mangy
little mutt sometimes and she gets you know, you know,
(27:23):
things stuck to her fur. Let's just say, you know,
I think it's a yellow.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
I will tell you buck having a dog, you're gonna
be like dogs are easy.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
I'm just saying anybody out there that has like, has
a dog and then goes to kid like there's a
big We got a bunch of calls. By the way,
Zay in Utah, what you got for his nane?
Speaker 6 (27:44):
Yeah? So I told that.
Speaker 11 (27:46):
Yeah, so I told the screener. I got two pieces
of advice, but a third one popped up.
Speaker 6 (27:50):
I'll start with number one.
Speaker 11 (27:52):
If you guys are doing a mother's milk, make sure
there's a lot of really small cheap parts for the pumps.
Make sure you have extras to those on hands because
they do break easily. Number two is to make sure
you let the baby self suit or you will not
sleep at night. We just had baby number three and
(28:14):
my wife has been holding him constantly. He'll be two
months old.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
On Monday and.
Speaker 11 (28:20):
It's starting to get to be a nightmare to sleep.
So make sure you let the baby self suit. And
then three on the car seat thing. It's a little
extra money, but there is a car seat that it
unfolds into a stroller, making carrying and transportation a life saver.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
So are you with me? By the way, would you
have ever believed how difficult putting car seat in a
car would be?
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (28:45):
No, it's they are impossible. I hate it every time
my gran my parents take the kid for you know,
to go out to the zoo or to do something
to give us a little bit of a break. My
dad tries to put car seats in the car every time,
and every time he comes back to me like twenty
minutes later and he says, well, I did my best.
(29:06):
Can you go do it?
Speaker 4 (29:08):
I did just switch cars. I mean, would be my
advice oftentimes with the car seats. Thanks for the call.
Dave in San Diego wants the way and Dave, what
you got for Buck?
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Hey?
Speaker 10 (29:20):
Congratulations Buck. First off, there's a lot of good advice
out there. I've had three boys. They're thirty, twenty six,
and twenty four. I'll tell you this they're hard in
their younger years, they're inquisitive, They're gonna want to get
into everything. Don't be in such a hurry for them
to start crawling and then to start walking, because once
(29:41):
they start moving and walking, it's a whole other world.
But I know with you guys as parents, they'll be
growing up to be great kids. You'll think a lot
of pictures, you'll take a lot of videos. You'll find
as you have kid two, three, and four, all of
a sudden there's not as many pictures and videos for
kid number three in number four, So enjoy them all.
(30:06):
You will find that they are all different, as Clay
could probably.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
Attest to it.
Speaker 10 (30:12):
Yes, speaking about personalities, it's great to watch, and it's
a it's a great experience and it will change your life.
But you'll be fine with it, and that one advice,
it'll come natural.
Speaker 6 (30:24):
That's the best.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Thank you, Thank you very much. I appreciate all that.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
And my mom box says, keep your mother in law happy, fed,
and appreciate it. Oh for sure, mother in law, mother
in law, not the mother the mother in law. Yes,
oh no, I'm I'm I promise that is that is
part of the mission here. We do have an excellent
granny brigade that we're going to be able to call
upon to both advise and assist as we need in
(30:49):
this mission. So we've got you know, Carrie is the
second of four kids and I am the second of
four kids.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
So both of our moms have you know, they've they've
been to some put them in work. Yeah, they've they've
done it. So ut a lot of mommy expertise and
soon to be granny expertise that we'll be calling upon there.
So we're very excited about it. Yeah, it'll it'll be fantastic.
And we actually weren't planning this, but uh, you're talking
about Preborn here for a second. And you know, as
(31:19):
as a dad who's going to and has been for
months going to ultrasound appointments, let me tell you the
amazing work that Preborn does. It hits differently when you're
going to see what they do and how they're helping
these women and you yourself are going with your own
wife and seeing the little heartbeat and seeing what's going
on with those ultrasounds, and here's Preborne's mission. It's just
so straightforward and it's so beautiful. They want to help
(31:41):
these moms make the right decision, the decision for life
for that tiny baby when they see that heartbeat on ultrasound,
just like the heartbeat that I've been seeing from my
little boy for months now on ultrasound. Preborn needs your help.
They don't get any money from the government. They don't
get any money from these these activist groups on the left,
that's for sure. They don't like what Preborn's doing, and
(32:02):
that's a very sad thing. But Preborn is doing God's
work day and day out, trying to help moms with
their pregnancies and to have happy little baby boys and
baby girls. And the step in this process that gets
it going I was talking about it is that ultrasound.
The ultrasound process is where Preborn introduces the mother to
(32:23):
bed or tiny boy tiny girl in the womb. And
each one of these ultrasounds has a cost to it.
They're a nonprofit, so they need your help. Each ultrasound
costs Preborn just twenty eight dollars, So if you can
donate that amount, or even five times that amount, say
one hundred and forty dollars, it's tax deductible. And I've
seen the mission that they do and like I said
(32:43):
now that I'm going to be a dad, and it's
so exciting, it's so beautiful. The more people out there
that we can just more moms, that we can just
show what's really going on and establish that divine connection
between mother and baby, the more lives are saved. Preborn's
mission is so critical. Please consider a donation today using
your cell phone dial pound two five zero, say the
(33:05):
word baby. That's pound two five zero from your cell phone,
say baby, or go online to preborn dot com, slash Buck,
preborn dot com, slash bucek sponsored by Preborn.

times this week to read legal notices because of things
that she has said on the air. Three times. This

(35:28):
year history of this show with us on, We've never
had to read a lawyer's notice because of something we
had to say. This has now happened for a third time.

show on television when the lawyers made her read for
a third time this I have a legal note.
Speaker 2 (35:46):

been charged with any crime. Gates previously dismissed allegations that
he paid for sex, saying that quote someone is trying
to recategorize my generosity to ex girlfriends as something more
on tower another legal note. Pete Hegseth's lawyer said he
made the woman in twenty twenty three to head off
