Weekly Review With Clay and Buck H1 - Another Big Win

Hour 1 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives into the aftermath of Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District special election, where Republican Matt Van Epps secured a decisive nine-point victory over Democrat Afton Bain. Clay and Buck break down why this off-calendar election mattered, emphasizing low turnout—roughly half of a typical congressional race—and how Democrats hoped to flip a Trump-leaning district but failed. The hosts credit grassroots awareness and strong support from President Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson for the win, reinforcing a key takeaway: “Running with Trump is how you win.” Van Epps himself echoed this sentiment in his victory speech, signaling the GOP’s strategy heading into 2026.

The discussion also explores voter behavior in special elections, contrasting Republican voters’ busy family lives with Democrats’ identity-driven activism. Clay shares personal insights on living in Williamson County, Tennessee, and why he refuses to support Davidson County after its COVID policies. Buck adds humor about avoiding a “communist dystopia” in Clay’s district, while callers from Alabama, Florida, and Michigan weigh in on the race’s significance and the broader political landscape, including battleground states like Michigan.

Beyond politics, Hour 1 touches on cultural and economic trends. Clay highlights American Eagle Outfitters’ stock surge following its controversial Sidney Sweeney ad campaign, arguing that traditional advertising resonates more than “woke” marketing. The hosts also tease upcoming stories, including President Trump’s comments on Somali fraud in Minnesota, and share lighthearted banter about holiday gift ideas, cozy blankets, and nostalgic tech like walkie-talkies.

Weekly Review With Clay and Buck H2 - Congressman Jim Jordan

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a packed lineup of political analysis and breaking commentary. The hour opens with an exclusive interview with Congressman Jim Jordan, who outlines the GOP’s legislative priorities before the 2026 campaign season kicks into high gear. Jordan emphasizes healthcare reform focused on choice and competition, rejecting expanded Obamacare subsidies, and highlights the need for tax cuts and regulatory reform to combat lingering inflation. He warns that despite progress under President Trump, prices remain painfully high for everyday Americans—a reality that could shape the 2026 midterm elections. Jordan also stresses the importance of passing a real budget, avoiding endless continuing resolutions, and protecting civil liberties during the upcoming FISA reauthorization, citing alarming revelations about government surveillance.

The conversation pivots to Democratic strategy and the fallout from the longest government shutdown, with Jordan predicting the left will double down on extreme policies, from open borders to gender ideology. Clay and Buck underscore the political stakes: losing the House could trigger another Trump impeachment and stall conservative reforms.

Later in the hour, the hosts tackle a major controversy in Minnesota—President Trump’s fiery remarks on the Somali fraud scandal, where scammers allegedly billed for 125 million fake meals under a child-feeding program, siphoning off billions in taxpayer funds. Clay and Buck dissect the cultural and political implications, questioning whether fear of appearing “xenophobic” allowed systemic fraud to flourish. They draw parallels to the UK’s grooming gang scandals and debate assimilation challenges, spotlighting cases where defendants cite Somali cultural norms as a defense in U.S. courts. This segment raises urgent questions about immigration policy, law enforcement, and cultural accountability.

Weekly Review With Clay and Buck H3 - How the TN Election Affects the Future

Hour 3 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show kicks off with a victory lap over Matt Van Epps’ nine-point win in Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District, marking the final election of 2025 and setting the stage for the 2026 midterms. Clay and Buck analyze key takeaways: Democrats dominated blue states while Republicans held strong in red states, but the looming question remains—how will GOP turnout look without Trump on the ballot? The hosts highlight Trump’s achievements on border security and crime reduction, citing record deportations and plummeting violent crime rates in cities like Memphis and Washington, D.C., while predicting that affordability and inflation will define the next election cycle.

The hour pivots to cultural and demographic trends, addressing fears that migration from blue states could “California” red states. Clay and Buck push back, citing data that COVID-era transplants to Florida, Texas, and Tennessee are making red states even redder, with Florida flipping from a Democrat registration advantage to a million-plus Republican lead. They mix in humor and generational slang, explaining terms like “Riz” and joking about “broccoli haircuts,” while engaging listeners on social platforms.

In a major geopolitical segment, the hosts dissect reports that President Trump has given Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro until Friday to step down, amid rumors of back-channel negotiations and heightened U.S. military presence in the Caribbean. They debate whether regime change could stabilize Venezuela and curb illegal immigration, drawing historical parallels to Operation Just Cause and Noriega’s ouster in Panama. Caller reactions add depth, with strong opinions on U.S. intervention and its potential impact on Latin America.

Hour 3 also features lively listener calls and VIP emails on topics ranging from urban liberal sprawl in places like Spokane to lifestyle debates over warm vs. cold climates. Clay shares personal anecdotes about skiing mishaps and why he prefers après-ski culture over hitting the slopes, while Buck critiques the unrealistic portrayal of Montana winters in the hit series Yellowstone. The conversation closes with lighthearted banter about man cards, raccoons raiding liquor stores, and defending Buck’s cozy habits.

Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Dec 5 2025

Steve Hilton: Hold My Beer 

Buck highlights two major fraud scandals in Minnesota and California, exposing systemic corruption tied to one-party rule and sanctuary policies. He highlights the staggering $300 million fraud in Minnesota’s child nutrition program and plays Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey’s evasive response. Buck then interviews Steve Hilton, who is running for governor of California, to discuss the state’s own crisis of waste and mismanagement. Hilton reveals shocking figures: $20 billion lost to unemployment fraud during the pandemic, $24 billion squandered on homelessness programs, and $13 billion allocated for free healthcare for illegal immigrants—all under Gavin Newsom’s leadership. 

Hilton details how California’s “homeless industrial complex” funnels taxpayer money into crony nonprofits and inflated housing projects, with units costing up to $1 million each while homelessness worsens. He also exposes Newsom’s failed promises, including a half-billion-dollar emergency communication system that doesn’t work, and warns of Newsom’s looming presidential ambitions backed by elite donors.  The discussion closes with sharp political insights into Kamala Harris’s declining influence, Josh Shapiro’s blunt criticism of her leadership, and the early maneuvering of California Democrats ahead of 2028. Hilton predicts a fierce battle among figures like Katie Porter, Tom Steyer, and Eric Swalwell, while emphasizing the urgent need to dismantle California’s entrenched political machine.

Clay Calls In from FIFA! 

Clay calls in from the FIFA World Cup draw event at the Kennedy Center, where President Donald Trump received the inaugural FIFA Peace Award. Clay describes the event’s global scale, Trump’s vision of tying the World Cup to America’s 250th anniversary celebrations, and the cultural clash between soccer’s left-leaning U.S. fan base and Trump’s presence. Buck and Clay discuss the international reaction, noting outrage from sports media and European elites, while highlighting Trump’s strategic use of global sports diplomacy.

Sen. Markwayne Mullin 

Senator Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma provides critical insight into U.S. national security and economic policy. Mullin confirms the legality and necessity of recent military strikes on Venezuelan narco boats, dismissing war crime allegations as baseless and detailing classified briefings that show cartel operatives actively attempting to recover narcotics and communicate with reinforcements. He outlines the Trump administration’s strategy to pressure Nicolás Maduro to leave power, dismantle drug labs, and destabilize terrorist networks without committing U.S. ground troops. Mullin also addresses the American beef industry crisis, explaining collapsing cattle prices, foreign-owned meat packer monopolies, and the looming threat of corporate consolidation. He calls for potential policy solutions, including price-fixing investigations, insurance backstops for ranchers, and reforms to protect domestic protein production.

Isabel Brown: Make American Babies Again

Buck welcomes Isabel Brown, host of The Isabel Brown Show, for an in-depth conversation about her fiery appearance on CNN’s Abby Phillip panel. Isabelle recounts the tense exchange surrounding the arrest of Brian Cole Jr., the alleged January 6th pipe bomber, and exposes the media’s double standard in excusing political violence when it aligns with left-wing narratives. She highlights how the discussion devolved into partisan spin, with CNN panelists obsessing over race and hypothetical pardons rather than addressing the gravity of planting pipe bombs near the RNC and DNC. Isabelle calls out the cultural hypocrisy where “everything is violence except actual violence,” underscoring the growing ideological divide in mainstream media.

The conversation shifts to a deeply personal and cultural topic: the revival of the American family among Gen Z. Isabel shares her experience as a new mother and describes how parenthood has transformed her perspective, giving her a renewed sense of purpose. She and Buck explore the generational shift toward valuing marriage, faith, and family despite decades of anti-family messaging and declining fertility rates. They discuss how young Americans are rejecting toxic narratives, rediscovering traditional values, and even walking away from birth control and dating apps to pursue meaningful relationships. Isabel points to a spiritual awakening among Gen Z, coupled with a rejection of climate alarmism and corporate-driven isolation, as key drivers of this cultural renaissance. The segment also touches on lighter moments, including fashion trends like the return of baggy je
