Weekly Review With Clay and Buck - Hour 1 - Riley Gaines Tells Us Her Reaction to Simone Biles

Hour 1 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show kicks off with Clay broadcasting solo from Washington, D.C., as Buck Sexton is delayed due to travel disruptions. Clay outlines a dynamic two-week schedule from the nation’s capital, including exclusive interviews with lawmakers and a highly anticipated Oval Office sit-down with President Donald Trump. This hour sets the tone for a politically charged and news-driven week. The primary focus of Hour 1 is the escalating unrest in Los Angeles, which Clay compares to the violent protests of summer 2020. He describes scenes of chaos, including burning police vehicles, attacks on law enforcement, and vandalism of autonomous Waymo cars. Clay emphasizes the presence of foreign flags and anti-ICE sentiment among rioters, suggesting the protests are “astro-turfed” and not organic grassroots movements. Clay praises President Trump’s swift response to the violence, highlighting the deployment of the National Guard and a renewed commitment to law and order. He contrasts this with what he sees as weak leadership from California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. Trump’s proactive stance, Clay argues, is a direct lesson learned from his first term—namely, that violent protests must be stopped immediately to prevent national destabilization. The show also spotlights a significant drop in crime rates across major U.S. cities under President Trump’s leadership. Clay cites dramatic year-over-year declines in murder rates in cities like New York (-27%), Chicago (-24%), and Denver (-63%), attributing this trend to Trump’s law-and-order policies and support for police departments nationwide. In a cultural flashpoint, Clay previews an upcoming interview with Riley Gaines, a former NCAA swimmer and OutKick contributor, who responds to criticism from Olympic gymnast Simone Biles. Biles had publicly attacked Gaines for her outspoken stance on protecting women’s sports from male participation. Clay and Gaines dissect the backlash, with Gaines defending her advocacy and calling out the hypocrisy of elite female athletes who support trans inclusion only after retiring from competition. Throughout Hour 1, Clay critiques mainstream media coverage of the LA riots, calling out ABC and CNN for downplaying the violence. He mocks their portrayal of the events as “people having fun watching cars burn,” arguing that such narratives ignore the real threats to public safety and law enforcement. This hour is packed with breaking news, cultural commentary, and political analysis, all centered around the themes of public safety, media bias, and the ongoing debate over gender in sports. It sets the stage for a high-energy week of exclusive content from Washington, D.C., with President Trump’s leadership and law-and-order agenda at the forefront.

Weekly Review With Clay and Buck - Hour 2 - WI Sen. Ron Johnson

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the fiscal realities facing the United States, featuring an in-depth interview with Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin. Broadcasting from Washington, D.C., Clay and Buck engage with Senator Johnson on the pressing issue of federal spending, the national debt crisis, and the future of economic policy under the leadership of current President Donald Trump. This hour centers around the much-discussed “Big Beautiful Bill” currently navigating the U.S. Senate. Senator Johnson, a leading fiscal conservative, outlines the unsustainable trajectory of post-COVID government spending, emphasizing how emergency-level expenditures have become the new budgetary baseline. He contrasts historical fiscal responsibility—such as post-World War II spending reductions—with today’s entrenched budget inflation, highlighting a 58% increase in federal outlays since 2019. Key topics include: The transformation of discretionary spending into mandatory spending during the pandemic. The urgent need for a forensic audit of over 2,600 federal programs to identify waste and inefficiencies. The political and economic implications of Medicaid expansion and its unintended consequences, including crowding out care for vulnerable populations. The strategic importance of border security funding and the fiscal mismanagement surrounding immigration-related expenditures. The role of President Trump in shaping the bill and his interactions with Senator Johnson, including a candid exchange about the senator’s “too negative” messaging. The potential for reconciliation processes to further conservative budget reforms. The broader economic impact of inflation, interest rates, and the national debt, with projections of $14 trillion in interest payments over the next decade. The historical context of U.S. GDP growth, with a sobering reminder that the country hasn’t seen 4% growth since the 1960s. The potential for AI and technological innovation to drive future economic expansion, albeit with caution. Senator Johnson also critiques the lack of economic literacy among many in Congress and underscores the need for a cultural shift in how Americans view federal spending. He likens the current fiscal situation to a family living beyond its means, calling for a return to pre-pandemic spending levels and a long-term commitment to fiscal discipline.

Weekly Review With Clay and Buck - Hour 3 - Simone Says Sorry

Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic and wide-ranging discussion from Washington, D.C., where Clay and Buck are meeting with key political figures, including President Donald Trump and top senators. This hour features in-depth commentary on Second Amendment rights, as Buck shares his recent NRA Pistol Instructor Certification experience and discusses the importance of firearms training with Clay, whose family is also actively engaged in gun safety education. The hosts dive into the cultural and political implications of Simone Biles’ controversial comments about Riley Gaines, highlighting the backlash Biles received for attacking Gaines’ appearance amid a broader debate on fairness in women’s sports. Clay and Buck analyze Biles’ PR-crafted apology and contrast it with Gaines’ authentic, articulate response, reinforcing their stance on protecting competitive integrity in female athletics. Later in the hour, the show features an exclusive interview with New York Post columnist Miranda Devine, who recently sat down with President Trump as her first guest on her new podcast Pod Force One. Devine shares insights from their conversation, including Trump’s reflections on his childhood, his views on Elon Musk, and his strategic mindset heading into a potential second term. Trump reportedly emphasized his readiness to act decisively, his improved team, and his commitment to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. The hour wraps up with a lighter segment where Clay Travis challenges WNBA star Angel Reese to a one-on-one basketball game, sparking humorous debate and listener reactions. The hosts also tease future sports-related content and discuss the idea of a sovereign wealth fund for the U.S., referencing commentary from financial expert Jim Rickards

Daily Review With Clay and Buck - Jun 13 2025

Israel Strikes Iran A powerful and timely breakdown of the breaking news surrounding Israel’s unprecedented military strike on Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructure. Broadcasting live as the story unfolds, Clay and Buck provide exclusive insights from their recent visit to the White House, including a private meeting with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office just hours before the Israeli operation commenced. The hosts emphasize the strategic brilliance and secrecy of the mission, highlighting how President Trump and his administration maintained operational security while publicly signaling diplomacy. Drawing on Buck Sexton’s CIA background and Clay Travis’s recent travels to Israel, the duo analyzes the geopolitical implications of the Israeli airstrike, which targeted Iran’s nuclear facilities, ballistic missile infrastructure, and senior IRGC leadership. They describe the operation as potentially the most impressive tactical aerial strike of the 21st century, comparing its precision and scale to historic military campaigns. Josh Hammer live from Tel Aviv The hour features a live report from Newsweek’s Josh Hammer, broadcasting from Tel Aviv, who shares firsthand accounts of life under missile sirens and the Israeli public’s overwhelming support for the strike. Hammer underscores that across Israel’s political spectrum, there is near-universal consensus on the existential threat posed by Iran’s nuclear ambitions. He also notes the quiet approval from key Arab nations like Saudi Arabia and the UAE, despite their public condemnations. Clay and Buck explore the broader Middle East dynamics, including the fallout from Hamas’s October 7th attack, the weakening of Hezbollah, and the strategic miscalculations by Iran and its proxies. They credit President Trump’s leadership and the current administration’s discipline in avoiding leaks and maintaining a strong deterrence posture. The hosts also discuss the potential for lone-wolf terrorist responses and urge vigilance while dismissing alarmist claims of World War III. Scott Jennings live from Israel Our Visit to the WH

Hour 2 - Israel Owns Iran Airspace

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a high-impact, real-time analysis of breaking global events, with a strong focus on the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran. The hour opens with in-depth coverage of Israel’s unprecedented airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and military targets, described as a “preemptive strike” aimed at dismantling Iran’s nuclear capabilities and the IRGC leadership. Reporting live from Israel, CNN’s Scott Jennings joins the show to provide firsthand insights from Tiberias, highlighting the calm resilience of Israeli citizens amid heightened tensions and missile alerts. The hosts and Jennings emphasize the strategic brilliance of the operation, crediting President Donald Trump for his pivotal role in supporting Israel and issuing a clear 60-day ultimatum to Iran—an ultimatum that culminated in this decisive military action. Jennings underscores the operation’s success as a historic moment in modern warfare, likening it to “Pager 2.0,” and praises the collaboration between Israeli intelligence and U.S. leadership. The conversation shifts to the political fallout in the U.S., where President Trump’s strong stance on immigration and national security continues to dominate headlines. His recent Truth Social post targeting California Governor Gavin Newsom and the Biden administration’s immigration policies is dissected, along with legal battles over Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles. The hour also features a compelling interview with Ben Shapiro, who offers a strategic breakdown of the Israeli strikes, the weakened state of Iran’s military infrastructure, and the broader implications for Middle East geopolitics. Shapiro discusses the potential collapse of the Iranian regime, the regional realignment favoring Israel, and the muted response from Iran’s allies. He also critiques the Democratic Party’s internal struggles, particularly around issues like gender in sports and the influence of radical leftist factions. Additional segments include commentary on Senator Alex Padilla’s controversial behavior during a press conference, with reactions from media personalities like Stephen A. Smith, and a humorous critique of the senator’s political theatrics. The hosts also reflect on their recent meeting with President Trump in the Oval Office, sharing behind-the-scenes impressions of his leadership and demeanor just hours before the Israeli strikes.
