Carrie Underwood, Come Talk to C&B!

CLAY: Matt Walsh, our boy, was in-studio with us, and he kind of created some stir. So, Matt and I both spoke at our local school board hearings here in the state of Tennessee. He did it in Nashville; I did it in Franklin, Brentwood, Williamson County area. And we both pointed out that masks make no sense and they don’t protect kids, and there are still lots of people fighting those battles who are idiots. But Carrie Underwood, Buck, liked Matt Walsh’s argument at the Nashville School Board.

BUCK: (Gasp!) Oh, my gosh! Not Carrie!

CLAY: She didn’t retweet it. She just liked it. People went through her likes, saw it, and it was one of the top-trending topics on social media. “How dare Carrie Underwood believe that kids don’t need to wear masks at school!” And, by the way, how pathetic are you if you are going through someone’s likes and turning what they like into a story.

BUCK: I didn’t even know that was a thing that people do, but, apparently, I guess, Carrie Underwood has so many folks out there.

CLAY: The blue checks are so focused on mind control —

BUCK: Crazy.

CLAY: — that you can’t even like something that they disagree with.

BUCK: I just hope that… I don’t want to give any ideas. I hope she doesn’t do the “it was an accidental swipe or like or whatever.” You know, that’s the way to always get out of this. “Oh, it was an intern on my staff” or something.

CLAY: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

BUCK: That would be the obvious celebrity move here. But, I mean, it’s Carrie Underwood. Who doesn’t love Carrie Underwood?

CLAY: She’s fantastic.

BUCK: Every has to calm down, fantastic, the best talent, in my opinion — although people like Kelly Clarkson a lot, too — to come out of American Idol. And I gotta say, this is just a reminder, Clay, that the mask… Think about this. The mask cult is so extreme, they are kind of the… They’re the version, they’re the Fauci-ite Taliban, if you will.

CLAY: Yeah. Yeah.

BUCK: If you go against —

CLAY: They don’t brook dissent.

BUCK: — the orthodoxy, they come after you with a frenzy. And remember how masks were supposed to be protective for the wearer. And then they realized because of the Danish study, which I got dinged for this on social media, but it turned out it was true. The Danish study said it didn’t really do anything.

CLAY: Yes.

BUCK: And they said, “Well, they theorized it prevents spread.” They never proved this.

CLAY: There’s no data.

BUCK: And the things that they’ve actually relied on, the actual studies that people tweet out because they’re pathetic and can’t think for themselves are guys basically sitting there with a spray bottle and a cloth mask spraying into the mask and going (impression), “See! Fewer droplets,” as “The Fauch” would say. “The fewer droplets that come through the mask, Clay, the less virus in the air.”

CLAY: And this is interesting, too, for the Carrie Underwood. For those of you out there may or may not remember this but she married Mike Fisher, who is a really great NHL player. They live here in Nashville and Mike Fisher got crushed… I don’t know if you remember this, Buck.

Mike Fisher went on Candace Owens’ show and just retired now as a hockey player. But the people out there, the blue checks, were aghast at the very idea that Mike Fisher would deign to discuss anything with Candace Owens. How dare he! So I tie this in because they’re both Daily Wire people. Carrie Underwood is probably one of us, Buck.

BUCK: Oh, now we’re outing her. We’re outing her.

CLAY: Hey, we brought Joe Rogan into the fold to lead our revolution against Fauci. I would love for somebody like Carrie Underwood… I don’t think she’ll do it, but I would love for her to just go double birds at her critics and be like, “Guess what? I’ve looked at the data. I don’t think masks work. If that infuriates you, have at it.” What we need are some of these celebrities, right, to be willing to be double-barreled birds all these losers, the blue checks, ’cause what do they really do?

BUCK: Right. She’s not gonna… First of all, she’s not gonna lose real audience over this.

CLAY: That’s what I’m saying. Own what you believe.

BUCK: There’s always an excuse here for this. “Oh, but, you know, the people who work for me,” or “There’s a (garbled).” If no one’s willing… If you can be a… I mean, to say “a multimillionaire” is just barely scratching their heads. But ultrarich celebrity who is gonna run scared from… This is not some minor issue, either. I mean, this is the future of the country right now —

CLAY: She’s got kids.

BUCK: It matters.

CLAY: That’s why she cares.

BUCK: It is in the hands of, honestly, this lunatic asylum, mask-worshiping, Fauci-ite, lockdown obsession, and we have to actually take this away from them. We have to take the power out of the hands of those people. And, yes, we could use a little celebrity backup. I hate to be the one how has to say it, but it can’t just be —

CLAY: You and me! (laughing)

BUCK: — the right-wing radio hosts and conservative media and one cable news channel that actually makes the case.

CLAY: I’ll say this. If you are worth $100 million or more, right, that’s a big standard that very few people get there. If you’re worth $50 million or more — heck, if you’re worth $20 million or more — how much money do you need in order to not be willing to say what you think?

BUCK: Yeah.

CLAY: In other words, like, I don’t have $100 million right now. But I say exactly what I think. If you’re Carrie Underwood or a lot of these other people who I think agree with us, what is the dollar figure that you’re afraid of?

BUCK: Right, what you’re doing —

CLAY: You have as much money as you could ever spend.

BUCK: You’re establishing, I think — or, rather, this points out for so many people for whom it’s not about the money anymore. It’s about the approval of their big, important, famous peer group. It’s not about the money if you go to Obama’s Martha’s Vineyard party. It’s about being at Obama’s party, and you never —

CLAY: Throw up the double birds!

BUCK: You never —

CLAY: Yeah. I don’t care.

BUCK: Of course.

CLAY: I don’t care about any of that.

BUCK: Well, you said you’d go.

CLAY: I would have gone.

BUCK: I would neither go, nor be invited.

CLAY: I would have gone to the party, because I don’t care if people hate me at a party.

BUCK: (laughing)

CLAY: I really don’t!

BUCK: I like it.

CLAY: I don’t care what anybody thinks about me.

BUCK: Oh, man.

CLAY: That’s what my wife says my superpower is.

BUCK: Can we put out right now: Carrie Underwood? Carrie Underwood, come on the Clay and Buck show?

CLAY: You’ve got an open invite.

BUCK: Open invite.

CLAY: If you won’t come, Mike Fisher has an open invite. We know he’s done Candace Owens. He can stand in for you.

BUCK: Yeah.

CLAY: But, yeah, my wife says my superpower, Buck, is that I genuinely don’t care what anybody thinks.

BUCK: Yeah.

CLAY: Now, I care about my wife and my kids, but really, I just… I really don’t care, and if you have that kind of money that a lot of these celebrities do and you look at the data and you’ve got a functional brain, own it.
