- Joe Buck opens up about the seven months his dad - Hall of Fame broadcaster Jack Buck - endured in an intensive care unit before passing. Joe shares the lasting impact of Jack’s last piece of advice and a previously untold story about an impromptu turn into the hospital to be with his dad one last time, which he calls, “the best right turn I’ve ever made in my life.”

Best right turn in my life. Words cannot describe the emotion I felt.
The night he paid tribute to his dad in 2011 by saying "We will see you, tomorrow night" just like his dad during the 1991 WS is something that will stick with me forever. RIP Jack
One of the coolest interviews you've ever done. What an amazing story.
i agree. this video is amazing man!!
That’s an amazing yet saddening story. I’ll never understand why Joe gets bashed the way he does; he’s a good man.
I thought I was the only Packer fan that didn't despise him, lol. He's not the greatest commentator ever, but I think he's good at what he does.
You've gotta figure for as great a man as his dad was, Joe had to have inherited some of his dad's great qualities
When I hear Joe Bucks voice for a packers game it means to me that it’s a big game. I’ve never had a problem listening to him don’t really understand why others do. But then again most people are negative in nature
@@danjacobsen7645 I think a lot of people dislike his baseball commentary, I’ve see plenty of huge moments that seem underwhelming following a Joe Buck call
His father was an amazing man and made many people happy.I didn't grow up listening to Joe but I definitely remember Jack Buck.great man
i am now convinced that bensinger is a wizard. how do you consistently get these kinds of jaw dropping interviews
Sephi Rothstein there are a few interviewers out there that have this rare ability, to get celebrities to open up. I think part of it is trust. He never rakes anyone over the coals, just let's them open up to him.
@@benjamintrahin9571 - Only "Celebrity" is Jesus Christ.
@@woodyhayes7402 never heard of him
@@benjamintrahin9571 - Oh, but you will....wait for it
I have a different view of Joe Buck after this. What an amazing story.
I am in tears. Beautiful interview. I know when my time comes. If I can, I too will wait for my boy before I go.
people who say they hate Joe Buck are almost always sheep. There is nothing to hate about the guy. He loves baseball and has a great voice for the game.
I couldn't agree with you more! I think Joe is one of the best in the business and also he is a great guy too. Like father like son both in my opinion were a gift for fans to listen too! Also it's no secret that Joe is a diehard Cardinals fan as he should be growing up there but when he is calling a game he is professional and neutral you couldn't even tell he was a diehard fan and that's what makes him one of the best!
You obviously havent watched him call Football.
@@joshprovance9733 But that's the point. He's not a good football announcer IMO, but he's pretty good at announcing baseball.
Yeah I really don’t get it.
What can I say? Joe's one of my favorite announcers.
These 2 guys are the gold standard in their fields! You've gotta identify that and follow their lead you will never go wrong
Wow, what a story. Watching your parents die is one of the toughest things a child will ever experience..
Don Sandri yeah but to bad Joe was 33 when his dad died
What age do you become not your parents child anymore?
I never got the criticism of Joe Buck. I like him and think he does a great job. I enjoy Graham's interviews as well.
B. Cleveland it's more that he doesn't react the same way people do. He treats a Hail Mary from Aaron Rodgers like someone just crossed the street, other than that he's pretty good at his job
Scalabrine for GOAT Not really man, only commentated on one of his hail Mary’s and I say it made it that more exciting.
He's a terrible commentator
the goat stop doing meth ok 😂😂
B. Cleveland people love to hate. Period. Jealous I guess.
Incredible. Absolutely incredible. It’s an awesome account, but the fortitude to be able to tell it without breaking…wow! Strong dude, that Joe Buck. And a terrific game caller.
RIP to Jack Buck such a sad story 😖.
As a kid I used to listen to Jack Buck and Hank Stram on the radio for Monday night football.
They were a tremendous team
76vike You must be old
Joe buck and Jack buck was my favorite announcers...I'll never forget this.
Couldn't imagine being anywhere else than by my loved ones side during the time of passing, but at least Joe stopped into hospital to tell his Dad to move on, I got this old man.
Never liked Joe Buck.. But this is a pretty touching story.
I didn't either but I read another interview with Joe where he talked about his dad, baseball and other things, it changed my mind about him.
@@stevew270 All true Cardinals fans. Especially ones here in St. Louis, have all the love & respect we had from jack, for his entire family. Joe is part of the Cardinals family. It's hard to describe to people outside St. Louis that dislike Joe far various reasons.
All true Cardinals fans, have all the love & respect we had from Jack, for his entire family. Joe is part of the Cardinals family.
@@scottweber6789 I think a lot of people dont like joe because a lot of people see joe getting broadcast and commentator jobs as nepotism. Thinking that joe just got the jobs because his dad was jack buck which I think is true and joe isnt as talented as his dad. I personally like joe because I liked Jack, I'm a cardinals fan and understand why people dont like him it hurt me when he left the cardinals to go to network tv and I thought that was legacy tarnishing.
I spent a lot of time with Joe and Jack! Joe was never the nicest. Jack ALWAYS was! I loved Jack, but not Joe. I’m sorry, but I seen it first hand.
Harry Caray & Jack Buck - best baseball announcing team on radio EVER.
Harry Kalas in the trio as well
Wow I'm crying makes me think of my dad never really got to say goodbye to him he passed away suddenly and unexpectedly in his sleep one night healthy as an 82 year old man could be.
Damn that’s deep. Joe can never be Jack but I respect Joe for the broadcaster he is.
God bless you joe buck!!!!!!!
Joe learned broadcasting from the G.O.A.T. My dad and I would turn the volume down on the TV and crank up the radio, JACK BUCK AND MIKE SHANNON!!!!
Joe has the best voice. He actually sounds pretty cool when he's not getting excited like in the games, but I do love the sound of Joe Buck getting excited, it sounds like an echo, for example Stefon Diggs touchdown.
Love Joe & Jack Buck.
Say what you want about his commentating skills, but he's a decent guy.
Wow, that's a deep story.
I never liked Joe Buck, but as a father, that story was very touching.
Man this made me cry like a baby
Powerful ! I went through something similar with my mother in hospice care
Never understood all the hate for Joe Buck. Seems like a cool guy to me.
Powerful. Amazing story.
Not a fan of Joe but this story really hit hard. I’m not gonna lie but I was in tears after listening to this.
Wow! Powerful stuff! Words of wisdom from one tough dude..
Great man and Great Son 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Broooo im about to fucking cry
Joe Buck is a great, and sensitive guy. That's no insult, it's a compliment. He learned to care about other people, something his dad taught him. Don't like his football? Too bad. Turn down the TV and listen to the radio, but stop bashing this man. He's a good soul and has his dad's sense of humor too.
Joe is part of the Cardinals family. All true Cardinals fans. Especially ones here in St. Louis, have all the love & respect we had from Jack, for his entire family. It's hard to describe to people outside St. Louis that dislike Joe far various reasons. He's family
if all you ever knew about Joe Buck were this story and the cold-open of the second episode of his talk show (with some back story as to his history with Artie Lange) then you would most likely love Joe Buck.
Incredible story
i know nothing about sports but enjoyed very much your interview with joe buck.

Great voice and good dude. I especially loved seeing Joe host Jeopardy last year. Papa Buck seemed to have wisdom.
I remember Joe Buck was 2nd rate announcers when NFL on FOX introduced in 1994 doing mostly lowly games like the Giants Cardinals with Tim Green sometimes Bill Maas in the 90's.This is a good inspiration story.
beautiful
I never liked Joe Buck until i watched these, maybe it's because he's always had that biased against my favorite teams but this really put it into perspective for me. Awesome job, Graham.
Shoutout to the Buck's. They just don't know what they have done and still do for the world just by commentating a Game and making it enjoyable!
I'm so confused why people hate on him
I don't know who Joe Buck is ,God bless his entire family for the love you have shown in this video. It was God talking. Faith supersedes all that one feels. God loves us.
2 CLASS ACTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Man what I wouldn’t give to have gotten a last conversation with my dad.
Makes you re consider your life. Let the people in your life know that you love them.
So deep and beautiful..anoher reason i love joe buck
joe & jack were both class acts...got to spend some time with both, lucky fred daly
I'll never forget being part of an 80 man barbershop chorus getting to sing the national anthem at Busch stadium before a Cardinal's game. We were all standing in the bowels of the stadium waiting to go onto the field when Jack Buck walked by. He stopped and looked at us and asked what group we were. When we told him we were a barbershop chorus he looked at us and said, "I hate barbershop singing." Not all stories about the guy are good.
Lol you gonna cry bro?
What a story man
Wow! Powerful
Joe Buck is the best there is. A passion for the game he is calling. But not so much that it gets in the way.
That's really powerful
Nice I had the same story with my Father.
Really devastating
I use to think stories like this were bullshit until I had a similar experience with my father, he suffered a heart attack was resuscitated and taken to the hospital. After a few days the doctors said he had no brain activity so he was essentially brain dead, after a few days I made the tough decision to disconnect everything from him but I did visit him told him I loved him held his hand but I was the only family member who did that, my mom and brother didn't want to visit because they figured it would be to hard to see him in that condition. Needless to say he lasted 10 days on his own, eventually the Hospital called me and recommended Hospice care. Which is care at home for a loved one whos going to die, so they take him to my moms home and this time obviously my mother and brother visit him talk to him spend time with him, even his only two granddaughters visit and say their goodbyes. All of this happened in one evening and by 6 A.M. the next morning he passed away..............
My condolences to ur pops 🙏🏿
no doubt he wanted to see u again hear u one more time i did the same thing with my grandfather i was tried of see him hurt and one of my uncle said have u been in today and I was kinda umm well he said boy go see ur grandfather and I got to watch him take his last breath and I was trying not to see that but what waz weird i felt a peace with it i though i would have nightmares about or something so im happy i got to be there for him
“We will see you tomorrow night”
I hate Joe Buck, but I’m in tears after hearing this. I wish he called games like this.
Hate him for what? What has he ever done to you? You must be a shitty, miserable person to hate someone you don't even know. Take your fake empathy and sorrow and shove them up your ass.
This is therapy for Joe
Liked Jack Buck far more than his son--I remember Jack Buck doing the play by play for many of the early Super Bowl's for CBS. His son couldn't even hold a microphone to his father
Vince is the GOAT
I'm shedding tears because next Thursday will mark the sixteenth anniversary of Jack Buck's death. Amazing story. Rock on, Joe Buck. I don't care what anybody says about you, whether it's hate or love. You are, were, and always will be one of my favorite announcers ever.
Today is, hard to say, was, the day of the anniversary, everyone.
Joe takes a lot of abuse.
Nobody picks his parents.
He’s a sympathetic figure.
Cut Joe some slack already.
wow
i dont care what people think of Joe Buck...love him or hate him..i enjoyed listening to him..to me Joe Buck and Tim Mcarver were the John Madden and Pat Summeral of baseball..
I understand why people don't like Joe Buck. He just comes off kind of...not sure the word. Some combination of arrogant and condescending but I the words he says are not that. There's a quality about him that is unlikable but it's like driving a great car with a horrible paint job. The car is great but the impression it makes is not.
Personally, I think he does a great job. I love listening to the WS with him and McCarver
The comment above is from a small minded person who has nothing better to do than to pass judgement on someone they don’t even know. Some people should remain silent if all they can think of is themselves and all their thoughts contain hate and vitriol.
DUDE
Joe is certainly NO Jack Buck. Joe is awful.
You will never be one half the announcer your dad was Joey but you got all the perks that he deserved. I grew up in central IL and heard Harry and your dad every summer night as a boy. They knew how to make a ballgame come to life over a radio. You and your old padnah (sic) McCarver made it excruciatingly painful to watch the Redbirds in the postseason. Remember, no matter how rich you are, you'll never be able to hold your dad's mic stand.
Sounds like you're stuck in the past, bro
Mark Roberts... Moronic thing to say.
I like Joe and Jack as announcers, but this story was INCREDIBLY disrespectful by Joe. "Dad, it's time for you to go" Nah, it's time when God says so. Joe was not gonna be with his Dad while he passed? Something made him turn into the hospital and see what Dads status was? Yeah, been here and done this and as painful as it was I was the rock on my parents side till they left.
Wait until YOU have walked a mile in those shoes, then you can judge...... Joe's a mensch!
