It’s Time to Read More 5-Star Podcast Reviews!
BUCK: We have some 5-star reviews, Clay, that… Who? By the way, Producer Ali, who picked these? Do we know where we got them? Was this Dub?
CLAY: Dub. Dub actually is hard at work here on the 5-star reviews.
BUCK: It was the podcast review czar.
CLAY: Yes.
BUCK: I didn’t know if he was still on the beach in Tijuana enjoying himself with a margarita, but here we are. We got them. Thank you, Producer Dub, for pulling these today. We’ll start. First of all, good way to get this going. Sem383: “Five Stars!!!” in the top of the review, “Clay and Buck entertain and inform and address the most pressing political concerns of the day. I do appreciate their perspective and find the show one I cannot miss. Thanks for stepping into this role and providing a voice we can relate to and enjoy.” Clay, I just want to say, I appreciate my brothers, you know, always writing in with these.
CLAY: Yeah, very nice of them. This one’s a bit of a body blow here, on my birthday. “Buck rules! Ok, Clay is sort of ok too.” So, I’m looking here at my birthday; this is what this guy decides to review? Now, it’s a 5-star review, so I’m gonna take it. But on my birthday, feels a little bit like a cheap shot.
BUCK: Don’t worry. I do get somebody throwing an elbow off the top buckle my way here coming in a few minutes. That was from swzsto; attick2 writes in, “Let’s go Brandon!!! Please donate to President Biden nursing home fund! Be arriving soon!!!!” He gave us five stars, Clay, so he’s part of the review crew.
CLAY: Lana Lois writes, “Hilarious impersonations by Buck!” Lots of exclamation points, I will say in the 5-star reviews selected by Dub. It may well be a flashing bright light that distracts him and makes him pick it. Lana says, “Hooked on it driving to and from work, thought provoking, educational, great show Buck and Clay!” By the way, these are 5-star reviews that are up publicly. You guys can go see them yourself. You can make your own when you subscribe to the podcast.
BUCK: And then mpatevol.
CLAY: I think that’s “M Pate Vol” would be the way I would read that as a names.
BUCK: Can I make that fancy sounding, like was gonna (impression) “Chez M’patvol”?
CLAY: Yeah. You’re good at accents. I’m not as good. But I look at this as the sports fan of me. I think this is a Tennessee fan; the Volunteers would be my guess.
BUCK: Oh, okay. I had no idea what that was. That makes sense. “Fantastic Show,” he writes in. “I’ve followed Clay since he did sports talk in Nashville, he was always willing to stir the pot, and not worry about what people thought. He’s still like that, which I really appreciate, and Buck has really grown on me, like a slow-moving fungus.” Wow.
CLAY: (laughing)
BUCK: “Love ya, Buck!! Bottom line is together they put on a great show every day, very informative and entertaining. Keep up the great work fellas.” I gotta say you don’t want a fungus among us.
CLAY: Hey, look, they’ll give you some space when you’re going to see Top Gun: Maverick tonight. If people are getting in your space, we know you like a little bit of space, maybe they’re using their phones too much, God forbid, they play any music at all.
BUCK: If you want to clear the space around you, you just whisper to everybody, “Hey, guys. I got a fungus problem.” You don’t even have to explain where it is or what’s going on then.
CLAY: I’m leaving. I’m not getting close.
BUCK: And I will say, I am super excited about going to see Top Gun tonight. Going with Carrie.
CLAY: Whose dad was a fighter pilot in Top Gun, like an instructor, right?
BUCK: We’re gonna have a lot of fun. Carrie’s father was a Top Gun instructor, career naval aviator, and I think she has four admirals or vice admirals in her direct lineage, actually, all Navy.
