Hour 1 - Iconic Moments in History
Hour 1 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of political analysis, cultural commentary, and holiday reflections, setting the tone for Thanksgiving Eve. Buck broadcasts from New York City while Clay joins from Florida’s panhandle, sharing lighthearted banter before diving into major news and historical context. The hosts express gratitude to listeners, discuss family traditions, and preview holiday travel trends with 82 million Americans expected on the road. They recommend the Clay & Buck Podcast Network for road trips and share humorous anecdotes about family football games and holiday safety. President Donald Trump pardons the Thanksgiving turkeys, sparking discussion on his unique ability to make traditions entertaining. Breaking news: Georgia election interference case dismissed, marking the collapse of Trump’s last pending 2020-related prosecution. The hosts call this a historic moment, predicting all four cases will fail and framing it as a defeat of lawfare. Analysis of the New York case as “preposterous” and Georgia’s RICO case as “incompetent.” They argue Trump’s resilience and strategy—treating legal battles as a political campaign—will be studied for decades. Trump’s iconic “fight, fight, fight” moment is compared to the Gettysburg Address for its future historical significance. Praise for El Salvador’s crime turnaround as a model for U.S. cities like Memphis and D.C., advocating back-the-police policies and tough-on-crime measures before rehabilitation debates. Deep dive into U.S. history: elections during the Civil War and WWII, Revolutionary War realities versus myth, and reflections on Founding Fathers’ imperfections. Pop culture notes include Mel Gibson’s The Patriot, critiques of modern streaming content, and ideas for new American historical entertainment like a Crockett biopic. Preview of NFL Chiefs vs. Cowboys (Cowboys as 3-point underdogs) and college football’s Texas A&M vs. Texas rivalry, alongside other major Thanksgiving weekend matchups.

Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Nov 25 2025
The Cost of Things Clay points out the economy is going to be a central issue heading into the midterms and beyond. He also highlights President Trump’s first year in office, praising his administration’s achievements on border security and crime reduction. Clay underscores how Trump’s decisive actions have led to the most secure southern border in decades and dramatic crime declines in cities like Memphis, where murders are down 50%, assaults down 40%, and robberies down 60%. Nashville is also seeing historic lows in violent crime, reinforcing Trump’s “law and order” success story. Clay frames these wins within the EBC strategy—Economy, Border, Crime—that defined the 2024 election, noting that while border and crime issues have been largely resolved, the economy remains the key challenge heading into 2026 midterms. He candidly addresses lingering inflation concerns, rising consumer costs, and the political implications for Trump’s second year in office. She's Crazy! Clay dives into a discussion about a high-stakes congressional race in Tennessee’s 7th District, where Republican candidate Matt Van Epps faces Democrat Afton Bain. Clay warns listeners about Bain’s controversial past statements, including her disdain for Nashville, country music, and traditional family values, as well as her radical positions on gender and policing. He urges voters in Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, and Clarksville to turn out for the December 2 special election, emphasizing that Democrats are pouring money into the race to flip a district Trump won by 20 points in 2024. Clay also tackles cultural flashpoints, criticizing Bain’s remarks about marriage and motherhood while advocating for expanded IVF support—a stance he credits President Trump for championing. The conversation explores broader cultural battles over family, ambition, and societal values, with listener calls adding personal perspectives. Ryan Girdusky Reads the Tea Leaves Data analyst Ryan Girdusky (host of It's a Numbers Game in the Clay and Buck podcast network) joins to break down early voting trends, turnout patterns, and what these signals might mean for the 2026 midterms. Ryan notes strong Democratic enthusiasm in special elections and shifting issue priorities, including healthcare, cost of living, and even AI policy, while reaffirming that immigration remains a strength for Trump despite media narratives. Where Are All the Good Men? Clay analyzes where the culture is on male and female relationships and where it all went wrong for women. It leads to a larger conversation about the difference between the sexes and how the Girl Boss era hurt women and became every man's fantasy.

Hour 1 - Everything Costs Too Much
Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives into a packed lineup of breaking news, political analysis, and cultural commentary as we head into Thanksgiving week. Clay opens the hour discussing record-breaking Thanksgiving travel trends, with over 82 million Americans expected to hit the roads and skies. He shares personal travel plans and sets the stage for a busy holiday week. The hour features major breaking news from the White House: President Donald Trump continues the annual tradition of pardoning Thanksgiving turkeys, Gobble and Waddle, in a ceremony filled with Trump’s trademark humor. Clay reacts to Trump’s remarks, including jokes about Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, and highlights the president’s ability to make even ceremonial events entertaining. From there, Clay pivots to political developments in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, spotlighting a controversial Democratic candidate and urging local listeners to stay informed ahead of next week’s election. He emphasizes the importance of this race and contrasts far-left rhetoric with mainstream values. The discussion then shifts to President Trump’s first year in office, praising his administration’s achievements on border security and crime reduction. Clay underscores how Trump’s decisive actions have led to the most secure southern border in decades and dramatic crime declines in cities like Memphis, where murders are down 50%, assaults down 40%, and robberies down 60%. Nashville is also seeing historic lows in violent crime, reinforcing Trump’s “law and order” success story. Clay frames these wins within the EBC strategy—Economy, Border, Crime—that defined the 2024 election, noting that while border and crime issues have been largely resolved, the economy remains the key challenge heading into 2026 midterms. He candidly addresses lingering inflation concerns, rising consumer costs, and the political implications for Trump’s second year in office. Internationally, Clay breaks news on Trump’s behind-the-scenes peace negotiations. Working with Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, Trump is reportedly brokering a potential Ukraine-Russia peace plan, following successful mediation in Gaza. Clay explains how Trump’s “deal-maker-in-chief” approach could deliver historic global agreements, even as skeptics question long-term security guarantees for Ukraine. The hour also includes Clay’s cultural commentary on gender and sports, reacting to a viral story about the “world’s strongest woman” title being revoked after it was revealed the winner was biologically male. He calls this a sign that common sense may be returning to competitive athletics. Finally, Clay closes Hour 1 with a humorous but heated debate on airline etiquette, labeling seat recliners as “travel terrorists” and sparking listener reactions through talkbacks. This lighthearted segment adds levity to an hour packed with serious news and sharp political insights.
