Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Jul 21 2025

Hour 1 - Reality of Taxes 

Hour 1 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the political and cultural landscape of America, marking key anniversaries and analyzing the seismic shifts in leadership and ideology over the past year. The hosts reflect on the one-year anniversary of President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 race, the chaotic fallout that followed, and the endorsement of Kamala Harris. They revisit the pivotal June 27th Biden-Trump debate and the near-assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, framing these events as historically transformative.

The hour features a robust comparison between recent political turmoil and past eras, including the JFK assassination, the 1968 political violence, and the 1864 Civil War election. The hosts draw parallels between Lincoln’s re-election and Trump’s political resurgence, emphasizing the importance of Sherman's capture of Atlanta and how historical military victories shaped electoral outcomes.

A major theme is President Donald Trump’s fulfillment of his 2024 campaign promises. The hosts praise his adherence to a 20-point platform and argue that no modern president has delivered more directly on campaign pledges. They also critique the Democratic Party’s strategy, suggesting that their overconfidence and reliance on abortion and “defense of democracy” messaging backfired in the 2024 election cycle.

The show also explores the economic outlook under the Trump administration, highlighting predictions from Jim Rickards about a potential $150 trillion state-owned asset that could trigger an unprecedented economic boom. The Wall Street Journal’s headline, “The U.S. Economy is Regaining Its Swagger,” is cited as evidence of renewed consumer and corporate confidence.

Cultural commentary includes Trump’s call to restore the original names of the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians, framed as a pushback against left-wing cultural overreach. The hosts argue this signals a broader conservative effort to reverse the excesses of the “woke” era.

Hunter Biden’s recent profanity-laced interview is dissected, particularly his comments on illegal immigration and labor. The hosts criticize his rhetoric and use it to highlight broader Democratic messaging failures.

The hour also touches on the explosive growth of the show’s YouTube channel, now nearing 100,000 subscribers, and the shift in media consumption from traditional platforms to digital video. The hosts emphasize the importance of reaching younger audiences and adapting to new content formats.

Hour 2 - Accelerating the Crazy

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the cultural and political battlegrounds shaping America today. The hour opens with a passionate discussion on the backlash against “cultural Marxism” and the perceived rewriting of American history, with both hosts expressing frustration over progressive movements that, in their view, have gone too far.

A major focus of this hour is President Donald Trump’s call to restore the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians team names, sparking a broader debate on the erasure of tradition and heritage in sports. Clay shares polling data showing overwhelming support among his audience for reverting to the Redskins name, while Buck explores the political and financial implications of such a move, especially in the context of federal support for a new stadium.

The hosts also examine the broader trend of sports team and college mascot name changes, citing examples like Dartmouth, St. John’s, UMass, and George Washington University. They argue that these changes reflect a relentless push from the political left, which they believe is never satisfied and continues to demand more cultural concessions.

The conversation expands to societal shifts from 2014 to 2022, including the rise and fall of the BLM movement, COVID-19 policies, and controversies surrounding transgender athletes like Leah Thomas. Clay and Buck argue that these years are now being reassessed and rejected by a growing number of Americans, framing the current moment as a “counter-revolution” led by Trump.

They highlight the positive impact of police body cameras in countering anti-police narratives and reducing viral misinformation, crediting this as one of the few constructive outcomes of recent cultural upheavals.

In a powerful segment, the hosts delve into the Obama-era intelligence community’s role in the Russia collusion narrative, with Tulsi Gabbard calling for accountability. They discuss the legal and political challenges of prosecuting former officials like James Comey, expressing skepticism that justice will be served due to expired statutes of limitations and institutional protections.

The hour also includes commentary on media bias, with criticism of outlets like The New York Times and The Washington Post for allegedly laundering false narratives and receiving Pulitzer Prizes for discredited reporting. The hosts argue this has eroded public trust in journalism.

Hour 3 - Media is Losing Their Toys

Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of political analysis, media critique, and cultural commentary. The hour opens with reflections on the one-year anniversary of President Joe Biden’s decision to exit the 2024 race, sparking intense discussion around Hunter Biden’s recent media blitz. The hosts dissect Hunter’s profanity-laced criticism of Democrats like George Clooney and James Carville, and speculate on his potential political ambitions—raising the provocative question: is Hunter Biden testing the waters for a future run?

The segment also covers breaking news of actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner’s reported death, adding a somber note to the hour.

A major focus is the cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s late-night show, which reportedly lost $40 million annually despite high ratings. The hosts challenge claims that the cancellation was politically motivated, instead pointing to unsustainable business models and the broader collapse of legacy media. This leads into a broader critique of late-night television, the decline of traditional media, and the rise of alternative platforms like YouTube and podcasts.

The conversation pivots to the WNBA’s financial woes, highlighting the league’s projected $40 million loss and the players’ controversial “Pay Us What You Owe Us” campaign. The hosts draw parallels between the WNBA and Colbert’s show, arguing both are examples of “woke economics” disconnected from market realities.

Listeners are also treated to a tribute to Admiral James Flatley, the only aviator to land and take off a C-130 Hercules from an aircraft carrier—an aviation feat tied to Buck Sexton’s family history.

The hour wraps with commentary on economic migration trends, including the relocation of In-N-Out Burger’s president to Tennessee, and a critique of progressive economic policies in states like California and New York. The hosts emphasize the importance of economic literacy, authenticity in media, and the enduring power of talk radio in a fragmented media landscape.

Weekly Review With Clay and Buck H1 - Trump's Tariffs Paying Off

Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into a dynamic mix of political analysis, economic commentary, and cultural critique, offering listeners a compelling breakdown of current events and conservative perspectives. Broadcasting from Atlanta during MLB’s All-Star festivities, the hosts open with light sports banter before transitioning into deeper discussions on national policy and political strategy.

A major focus of this hour is the economic impact of Trump-era tariffs, with the hosts highlighting a rare federal budget surplus in June 2025. They argue that despite media narratives, tariffs have not triggered significant inflation and instead have generated substantial revenue. The conversation also critiques Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for high interest rates, which they claim have frozen the housing market and stifled economic growth. The hosts advocate for rate cuts to stimulate recovery, pointing to record-high stock market performance and strong job growth under Trump’s second term.

The show also explores border security and crime reduction, asserting that violent crime rates are plummeting due to increased law enforcement and deportation of violent offenders. They credit the Trump administration’s immigration policies for restoring law and order, emphasizing that border enforcement and ICE operations are resonating with a broad swath of Americans, including minority communities.

In a sharp political pivot, the hosts analyze California Governor Gavin Newsom’s national ambitions, suggesting he is positioning himself as a frontrunner for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination. They critique Newsom’s evasive responses on controversial issues like transgender policies and youth gender surgeries, portraying him as a polished but insubstantial figure who avoids taking firm stances. The discussion frames Newsom as emblematic of a Democratic strategy that relies on charm and ambiguity rather than policy clarity.

Throughout the hour, the hosts reinforce the idea that Trump’s “EBC” platform—Economy, Border, Crime—is delivering results, contrasting it with what they describe as the Democrats’ inconsistent messaging and policy failures. They also touch on California’s political transformation, attributing its shift from red to blue to mass illegal immigration and failed progressive governance.
