CLAY: What was it like? I want to have some positivity here to finish the show today.

BUCK: I know. First of all, the only downside I have to tell everybody out there is, there was no video of my funky moves on the dance floor.

CLAY: I refuse to believe these are great moves. Iโ€™m calling it out.

BUCK: Iโ€™m just telling you right now, I donโ€™t even think you could handle all this funk, Mr. Travis.

CLAY: (laughing)

BUCK: But it was happening. It was black tie, and so it was a littleโ€ฆ I would say the wedding partโ€ฆ I was the best man, so it was a littleโ€ฆ I think you could say it seals in all the juices. A black tie is not really aโ€ฆ My producer Mark actually has video of me dancing at his wedding, which maybe weโ€™ll put that up on ClayAndBuck.com.

CLAY: I would love to see this.

BUCK: Yeah, the moves!

CLAY: Iโ€™d like to see this.

BUCK: Thereโ€™s so much funk and style in these moves, Clay. But producer Mark does have the video proof that it is a thing that happened so weโ€™ll put that up on ClayandBuck.com for some EIB 24/7 subscribers maybe. I donโ€™t know. So thatโ€™s how weโ€™re gonna do that. But, no, the wedding was great. The weather this weekend was a little bit tough, but it cleared up enough. The food was absolutely fantastic. Iโ€™m a big fan of wedding food. Can I tell you actually one funny anecdote, though?

CLAY: Yeah, for sure.

Clay and BuckBUCK: Iโ€™m sitting there with all my little brotherโ€™s friends, some of whom Iโ€™ve known โ€™cause some of them went to my high school, and Iโ€™ve known these kidsโ€ฆ God, theyโ€™re all in their thirties now, so theyโ€™re not really kids. But some of them Iโ€™ve known for 20 years myself.

CLAY: You were the big brother.

BUCK: I was the big brother.

CLAY: Yeah.

BUCK: So Iโ€™ve known my little brotherโ€™s friends forever. So itโ€™s his groom party or whatever, and weโ€™re sitting there, and theyโ€™re talking aboutโ€ฆ Iโ€™m gonna have to make this as family friendly as possible.

CLAY: (laughing)

BUCK: But they were discussing advice โ€” you know, advice.

CLAY: Yeah.

BUCK: I was asking people. They said, โ€œOkay. Whatโ€™s the best advice that you would give or you would have for somebody whoโ€™s just about to get married?โ€ And one guy whoโ€™s been married for, I donโ€™t know, seven or eight years now, said, โ€œTwo bathrooms.โ€ He says, โ€œYou donโ€™t have to have them in theโ€ฆ They donโ€™t have to be next to each other.

โ€œThey donโ€™t have to be easyโ€ฆ You need two different bathrooms, if you can get away with it.โ€ Obviously for a husband and wife. All right. Thatโ€™s interesting advice. But then there was this whole conversation about what I think we would term you could say โ€œromanceโ€ when youโ€™re married or if youโ€™re a couple.

Romance before dinner became the topic of conversation and how it actually โ€” and everyone just hear me out. It makes a lot of sense to be romantic before you have dinner, and some of the guys were talking about this. And one guy said to another, โ€œThatโ€™s one of the best bits of advice, man, Iโ€™ve ever had. Itโ€™s a game-changer.โ€

Clay and BuckHis wife who was right there. Theyโ€™re about 32, 33. Sheโ€™s nodding her head enthusiastically like romance before dinner is the way to go. And it made this whole chain of transmission between a whole bunch of different people sitting at this large wedding table. And the woman says, โ€œHold on a second. Buck is the one who told me about romance before dinner a long time ago.โ€

And we figured out that I had started this chain of transmission that had changed many lives over the years, many marriages and relationships for the better by convincing people, Clay, nobody wants to get all frisky after theyโ€™ve had a steak frite with some bearnaise or something.

CLAY: (laughing)

BUCK: You get romantic before dinnertime, build it into your schedule Iโ€™m telling you itโ€™s a game-changer.

CLAY: I think itโ€™s not only the eating, itโ€™s also being tired. You get in bed and next thing you know โ€” if itโ€™s 10:30, 11 oโ€™clock and you get up early in the morning โ€” youโ€™re out.

BUCK: Our audience that joins the romance before dinner movement, the testimonials that will flow in on Facebook from husbands and wives will be saying, โ€œWow. I canโ€™t believe I never thought about that.โ€ Game-changer. You almost schedule it in, Clay, โ€™cause if you wait โ€™til after dinner people get tired, maybe you gotta drive home from the restaurant.

CLAY: You gotta pay off the babysitter.

BUCK: Do all these things.

CLAY: You have to get the kids back to bed. Thereโ€™s a lot of obligations.

BUCK: You build in your time before the meal. Look, people could say that Iโ€™m a crazy person, but I can just tell you this man; The proof is in the pudding.

CLAY: I think it makes a lot of sense. By the way, proof in the pudding youโ€™re giving advice to the married people even though, by the way, youโ€™re still not married. Weโ€™re just adding that.

BUCK: That is a fair point.

CLAY: That is a bit of a wrinkle in the proof-of-the-pudding argument.

BUCK: But I have benefited many a marriage with my thesis on this, I will tell you. So, romance before dinner, everybody, try it out.

CLAY: Thatโ€™s fantastic.
