Short questions with Dana Perino

You know us on screen — but what about off? 

I thought it’d be fun to check in with some of your favorite Fox personalities (plus a few surprise appearances!) to learn more about who they are behind the scenes. 

And who’s on the docket this time around?

It’s none other than Clay Travis, founder of OutKick — and I hope you get a kick out of our Q&A below!

Stay tuned for lots more — I have plenty of other revealing Q&As coming along.

Q: What is the best advice you’ve been given?

CT: If you worry about the opinions of people who don’t like you, then the people who do like you won’t like you anymore. 

Q: What is your favorite piece of advice to give? 

CT: If you want to work in media, read everything. And your ability to write a coherent argument is the foundation of any media career. You can’t do good radio or TV, in my opinion, without being a good writer. 

Q: What would you name your boat if you had one? 

CT: Travisty (this is an intentional misspelling for the people who will email). 

Q: Pick one: March Madness or College Bowl Games? 

CT: College bowl games. College football, in my always humble opinion, is the greatest, most fun sport in America. 

Q: Greatest athlete of all time? 

CT: Of my life? Bo Jackson.

Q: One thing you couldn’t live without … 

CT: Football — college and pro. 

Q: When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? 

CT: A fighter pilot or a pro-athlete 

Q: Best restaurant in Nashville? 

CT: Bourbon Steak — the view is the best in Nashville.  

Q: What is your go-to karaoke song? 

CT: “Dixieland Delight” (I am tone-deaf and the worst singer of all time, though). 

Q: What’s your best dad joke? 

CT: What’s the difference between broccoli and boogers? Kids won’t eat broccoli. (This is a vintage dad joke … My dad used it throughout my childhood.)
