Clay plays Comey’s past CNN remarks dismissing accountability and contrasts them with the current reality.

Charlie Kirk Awakening Clay Travis dives into a major political bombshell and cultural flashpoints shaping the national conversation. The hour opens with breaking news that ESPN and SEC Network analyst Paul Finebaum is seriously considering a run for the U.S. Senate in Alabama, following Senator Tommy Tuberville’s decision to pursue the governorship. Clay shares exclusive details from his in-depth weekend interview with Finebaum, revealing how the assassination of Charlie Kirk profoundly influenced Finebaum’s thinking about America’s future. Finebaum, a household name in college football, expressed frustration with cultural decline and confirmed he’s weighing a move from sports media to politics—a decision Clay predicts could “land like a neutron bomb” in both sports and political circles. Listeners hear Finebaum’s candid remarks about his motivations, including his disillusionment with corporate media after Disney blocked him from interviewing President Trump in 2019, despite ESPN’s frequent access to Barack Obama. Clay underscores the cultural double standard and praises Finebaum’s courage in publicly acknowledging he’s a Trump voter—something virtually unheard of among current ESPN personalities.

He argues that abandoning cultural arenas like sports only cedes ground to the Left. Middle East Peace? Live coverage of Trump’s remarks, highlighting his call for Palestinian leadership to reject terrorism and embrace reform, and his insistence that lasting peace requires security for Israel and opportunity for Palestinians.

In Hour 1 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show, Clay Travis kicks off the week solo while Buck Sexton reports from Taiwan. This hour dives into a whirlwind of breaking news and political analysis. Clay begins with major international developments: President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are meeting at the White House to finalize a 21-point Middle East peace plan aimed at ending nearly two years of conflict in Gaza following the October 7 Hamas attack. Reports suggest progress, including Netanyahu apologizing to Qatar for a recent strike, signaling potential diplomatic breakthroughs. Domestically, Clay covers the looming federal government shutdown as the October 1 deadline approaches, framing it as more political theater than real fiscal reform. He also addresses the shocking Michigan LDS church attack, where four people were killed in what appears to be an anti-Christian hate crime. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt vows full prosecution and prevention of such targeted violence. The hour’s biggest legal bombshell: former FBI Director James Comey faces two felony indictments in Northern Virginia for alleged perjury related to the Russia collusion investigation. Clay plays Comey’s past CNN remarks dismissing accountability and contrasts them with the current reality. Vice President JD Vance weighs in, emphasizing that the indictment was not politically motivated despite the deep-blue jury pool. Clay questions whether prosecutors can secure a conviction given the venue and judge but calls the indictment a major step toward accountability. On the political front, New York City Mayor Eric Adams drops out of the re-election race, leaving Zohran Mamdani as the frontrunner against Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa. Clay analyzes betting markets showing Momani with an 83% chance of victory and argues that a split anti-Momani vote virtually guarantees his win. Cultural commentary also takes center stage as JK Rowling reignites her feud with Emma Watson over transgender issues, drawing applause from Clay for her unapologetic stance. Additionally, the show reflects on the ongoing impact of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, including a powerful Turning Point USA tribute at the Oregon-Penn State game and speculation that ESPN’s Paul Finebaum may enter politics after being deeply affected by Kirk’s death.

The hour also touches on Bruce Pearl’s decision not to enter the Alabama Senate race, leaving the field wide open for Finebaum, whose name recognition and deep Alabama roots make him a formidable contender. Clay takes calls from longtime listeners reacting to the news, many expressing strong support for Finebaum’s potential candidacy. Meanwhile, Clay keeps an eye on breaking developments from the White House, where President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are expected to announce progress on a 21-point Middle East peace plan aimed at ending the Gaza conflict ahead of the October 7 anniversary of the Hamas attacks. The discussion highlights the high-stakes diplomacy and the presence of key figures like Secretary Marco Rubio and Jared Kushner. Cultural commentary continues with JK Rowling’s fiery response to Emma Watson over gender ideology, reinforcing Rowling’s status as a fearless voice in the free speech debate.

Hour 1 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful and urgent breakdown of breaking news, political analysis, and media accountability. The hour opens with a disturbing report of a sniper attack at a Dallas ICE facility, which hosts Clay and Buck’s deep dive into the rise of left-wing political violence and domestic terrorism. The shooter reportedly engraved anti-ICE messages on bullets, echoing previous politically motivated assassinations, including the killing of Charlie Kirk and United Healthcare’s CEO. Buck Sexton, drawing on his counterterrorism background, categorizes the incident as ideologically driven terrorism, criticizing mainstream media outlets like CNN for downplaying motives when violence originates from the political left. The hosts explore the broader implications of anti-law enforcement rhetoric, citing statements from California Governor Gavin Newsom and Texas Senator Ted Cruz. Cruz calls for an end to inflammatory language targeting ICE and CBP agents, warning of real-world consequences. The discussion also highlights how political figures and media narratives may be fueling radicalization by portraying conservatives and law enforcement as fascists. Clay and Buck then pivot to the topic of Big Tech censorship, previewing an upcoming interview with Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan. They discuss Google’s admission that YouTube suppressed conservative voices, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Clay shares personal experiences of being deplatformed for advocating school reopenings and sports resumption, while Buck emphasizes the First Amendment violations tied to government-influenced censorship on platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok. The hosts argue for financial accountability and propose the creation of a civil liberties organization to support independent creators silenced by tech giants. The hour also touches on the return of Jimmy Kimmel to late-night television, with Buck dismissing it as a corporate distraction rather than a true free speech victory. The hosts contrast Kimmel’s situation with the systemic suppression of conservative media voices.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of political insight, cultural commentary, and exclusive interviews, headlined by a conversation with Congressman Jim Jordan. The hour opens with a deep dive into Big Tech censorship, as Jordan discusses YouTube’s recent admission of suppressing conservative voices, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The hosts and Jordan explore the First Amendment implications, the lack of accountability, and the financial damage inflicted on independent creators and media outlets. Jordan highlights pending legislation that would allow individuals to sue government officials who pressure platforms to censor speech, reinforcing the need for free speech protections in the digital age. The discussion shifts to the Let Experienced Pilots Fly Act, a bipartisan effort to address airline staffing shortages and reduce flight delays. Buck and Clay advocate for keeping skilled pilots in the air, citing safety, efficiency, and passenger satisfaction. Congressman Jordan supports the initiative and recommends engaging Transportation Committee Chairman Sam Graves for further insight. Next, the conversation turns to the Score Act, a bill aimed at reforming college athletics. Jordan outlines its goals: promoting competitive balance, protecting non-revenue and Olympic sports, and ensuring athletes pursue education. The bill seeks to preserve Division I standards and address concerns over frequent transfers and lost academic opportunities. Clay and Buck also tackle the Jimmy Kimmel controversy, arguing that his removal from certain affiliate stations was a business decision, not censorship. They criticize Kimmel’s partisan approach and lack of humor, suggesting that networks like Nexstar and Sinclair are responding to audience demand for more balanced programming. The hour includes a humorous segment on Buck’s quest to hit a 100 mph tennis serve, which segues into a broader conversation about aging, parenting challenges, and sleep regression. Buck shares personal anecdotes about his newborn son and the realities of fatherhood, adding a relatable and lighthearted touch to the show. In a geopolitical pivot, Buck announces his upcoming fact-finding trip to Taiwan, where he’ll meet with senior officials to discuss national security, semiconductor production, and the growing threat from China. He emphasizes Taiwan’s strategic importance, noting that it produces 90% of the world’s advanced semiconductors, making it a critical flashpoint in global politics. The hosts then dissect Gavin Newsom’s claim that there may not be a 2028 election, calling it dishonest fear-mongering designed to energize the Democratic base. Clay offers to bet $10 million that the election will happen, framing Newsom’s rhetoric as dangerous and irresponsible. The hour wraps with a viral moment from the White House, where President Trump humorously commemorates Joe Biden with an auto-pen image instead of a portrait, showcasing Trump’s unmatched comedic instincts in politics. Clay and Buck argue that Trump’s humor is a key part of his cultural appeal and predict Democrats will soon pivot from demonizing him to lamenting his irreplaceable political presence.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a compelling mix of breaking news, cultural analysis, and political commentary, with a strong focus on law enforcement, media bias, and the future of conservative influence. The hour opens with discussion of Miami potentially hosting the Donald Trump Presidential Library, a symbolic move that underscores Florida’s emergence as the epicenter of the Republican Party. Clay and Buck highlight the significance of Trump’s legacy and contrast it with President Biden’s struggling post-presidency prospects, including reports of difficulty securing paid speaking engagements and donor support. The hosts revisit the ICE facility shooting in Dallas, emphasizing the politically motivated nature of the attack, which included anti-ICE messages engraved on bullets. They explore the broader implications of left-wing political violence, tying it to inflammatory rhetoric from Democratic leaders. Vice President JD Vance’s powerful statement condemning the demonization of law enforcement is played and endorsed, followed by a passionate response from Senator Rick Scott of Florida, who calls for national support of law enforcement and criticizes Democrats for fostering hostility toward officers. Senator Scott also addresses the looming government shutdown, blaming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for obstructing budget negotiations. He supports Senator Ron Johnson’s proposal to maintain government operations using previous funding levels, arguing it’s better than halting essential services. Scott also updates listeners on the confirmation process for Trump administration nominees, revealing that Democrats are systematically blocking appointments, forcing Republicans to change Senate rules to push through over 100 nominees. The hour includes a deep dive into the Jimmy Kimmel controversy, with Clay and Buck analyzing Nexstar and Sinclair’s decision to pull the show from local affiliates. Senator Scott calls Kimmel “toxic” and praises networks for making business decisions that reflect audience values. The hosts argue for a return to balanced late-night comedy, suggesting that shows like Colbert and Kimmel have become vehicles for Democrat propaganda rather than genuine humor. They propose relocating late-night programming to cities like Nashville to escape the ideological echo chambers of New York and LA. Clay and Buck also explore the FCC’s equal time rule, questioning why political comedy shows on public airwaves aren’t held to the same standards as news programs. They suggest that if market-based solutions fail to restore balance, regulatory enforcement might be necessary to ensure fair representation of political viewpoints. Additional segments include listener talkbacks from Alaska, humorous reflections on COVID-era restrictions in New York, and a lighthearted moment featuring Buck’s impersonation of Andrew Cuomo. The hour closes with a preview of future discussions on media fairness and regulatory reform.

Comey Indicted The guys discuss the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey in Northern Virginia. Clay and Buck break down the charges, which include allegations of lying under oath to Congress during the Russia collusion investigation. They analyze the legal and political implications, the challenges of securing a conviction in a heavily Democratic jurisdiction, and the broader debate over a two-tiered justice system. The hosts emphasize that while the indictment is a major development, the likelihood of a conviction remains low due to jury bias and judicial hurdles. They also credit U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan for pushing the case forward despite resistance from career prosecutors. Democrat Games In Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, the discussion kicks off with President Donald Trump’s comments on the looming government shutdown and the political battle over federal spending. Trump accuses Democrats of pushing for massive funding for illegal immigrants, tying the debate to Obamacare subsidies and rising healthcare costs. Clay and Buck dive deep into the broken state of the U.S. healthcare system, sharing personal stories that highlight the lack of price transparency, inflated insurance costs, and how illegal immigration strains emergency rooms and taxpayer resources. They argue that Democrats have intentionally created a system that forces Americans to subsidize healthcare for millions of undocumented migrants, driving up premiums and reducing care quality. The hosts also analyze the political theater surrounding shutdown threats, predicting that despite the rhetoric, a deal will eventually be reached—but at the cost of even more government spending. They emphasize how Trump’s messaging power dominates the narrative, framing Democrats as defenders of open borders and taxpayer-funded benefits for non-citizens. Jack Ciattarelli Clay and Buck welcome Jack Ciattarelli, Republican candidate for governor of New Jersey, for an in-depth interview on one of the most competitive gubernatorial races in the country. Ciattarelli outlines his plan to cut taxes, lower electricity rates by exiting the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, end sanctuary state policies, and restore parental rights in education. He slams his opponent for ethics scandals, including undisclosed stock trades and misleading claims about her Naval Academy record, and criticizes her support for progressive policies like biological males competing in women’s sports and mandatory LGBTQ curriculum without parental opt-outs. Ciattarelli argues that Phil Murphy’s legacy of high taxes, rising crime, and failing schools has pushed New Jersey voters toward change, making this race a potential Republican breakthrough in a traditionally blue state. The Next Governor of Florida The show features an exclusive interview with Congressman Byron Donalds, a leading conservative voice and candidate for Governor of Florida. Donalds shares his personal journey from Democrat to Tea Party activist to U.S. Congressman, emphasizing his commitment to keeping Florida the “Free State.” He outlines his priorities as governor: reducing property taxes, stabilizing the insurance market, attracting manufacturing and tech jobs, and eliminating woke policies in schools. Donalds also addresses the looming government shutdown, blaming Senate Democrats for catering to the radical left, and reaffirms his support for law enforcement and parental rights in education. The interview takes a personal turn as Donalds reflects on the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, praising his legacy in mobilizing young conservatives and defending Judeo-Christian values. The hour closes with lighter moments, including Donalds’ love for sports, his Florida State Seminoles predictions, and Clay and Buck’s banter about NFL picks and the Ryder Cup.

Trump received a warm welcome from fans as he cheered on Team USA at Bethpage Black, creating a patriotic atmosphere reminiscent of the Olympics. Clay and Buck discuss Trump’s connection to the golf world, including his relationships with top players like Scottie Scheffler, and highlight the cultural significance of his presence at this major sporting event. The hour’s biggest story centers on the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey in Northern Virginia. Clay and Buck break down the charges, which include allegations of lying under oath to Congress during the Russia collusion investigation. They analyze the legal and political implications, the challenges of securing a conviction in a heavily Democratic jurisdiction, and the broader debate over a two-tiered justice system. The hosts emphasize that while the indictment is a major development, the likelihood of a conviction remains low due to jury bias and judicial hurdles. They also credit U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan for pushing the case forward despite resistance from career prosecutors. Additional topics include the potential for more indictments, the historical context of prosecuting high-profile officials, and the precedent set by previous cases involving Trump allies like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro.

In Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, the discussion kicks off with President Donald Trump’s comments on the looming government shutdown and the political battle over federal spending. Trump accuses Democrats of pushing for massive funding for illegal immigrants, tying the debate to Obamacare subsidies and rising healthcare costs. Clay and Buck dive deep into the broken state of the U.S. healthcare system, sharing personal stories that highlight the lack of price transparency, inflated insurance costs, and how illegal immigration strains emergency rooms and taxpayer resources. They argue that Democrats have intentionally created a system that forces Americans to subsidize healthcare for millions of undocumented migrants, driving up premiums and reducing care quality. The hosts also analyze the political theater surrounding shutdown threats, predicting that despite the rhetoric, a deal will eventually be reached—but at the cost of even more government spending. They emphasize how Trump’s messaging power dominates the narrative, framing Democrats as defenders of open borders and taxpayer-funded benefits for non-citizens. Later in the hour, Clay and Buck welcome Jack Ciattarelli, Republican candidate for governor of New Jersey, for an in-depth interview on one of the most competitive gubernatorial races in the country. Ciattarelli outlines his plan to cut taxes, lower electricity rates by exiting the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, end sanctuary state policies, and restore parental rights in education. He slams his opponent for ethics scandals, including undisclosed stock trades and misleading claims about her Naval Academy record, and criticizes her support for progressive policies like biological males competing in women’s sports and mandatory LGBTQ curriculum without parental opt-outs. Ciattarelli argues that Phil Murphy’s legacy of high taxes, rising crime, and failing schools has pushed New Jersey voters toward change, making this race a potential Republican breakthrough in a traditionally blue state. The hour wraps with listener feedback on shutdown fatigue, cultural issues, and a question about whether James Comey might seek a plea deal in his indictment case—a topic Clay and Buck dismiss, noting Comey’s ego and belief that he can beat the charges.

In Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, the hosts dive deeper into the legal and political firestorm surrounding James Comey’s indictment for perjury. Clay and Buck analyze the congressional testimony at the heart of the case, including pointed questioning from Senator Ted Cruz and earlier statements to Senator Chuck Grassley. They break down the challenges prosecutors face in proving Comey knowingly lied under oath about authorizing FBI leaks during the Trump-Russia investigation. The discussion explores the five-year statute of limitations, evidentiary hurdles, and whether the case hinges on insider testimony or circumstantial evidence like email and phone records. Both hosts stress the importance of accountability, noting that Comey aggressively pursued similar charges against Trump allies, and argue that equal justice demands consequences—even if conviction is unlikely due to a favorable judge and jury pool in Northern Virginia. The conversation then shifts to jury bias, venue reform, and systemic fairness, with Clay proposing that federal defendants should have the right to move cases to their home state to avoid politically skewed juries. Buck underscores the symbolic value of the indictment as a deterrent against future abuses of power within federal agencies. Later in the hour, the show features an exclusive interview with Congressman Byron Donalds, a leading conservative voice and candidate for Governor of Florida. Donalds shares his personal journey from Democrat to Tea Party activist to U.S. Congressman, emphasizing his commitment to keeping Florida the “Free State.” He outlines his priorities as governor: reducing property taxes, stabilizing the insurance market, attracting manufacturing and tech jobs, and eliminating woke policies in schools. Donalds also addresses the looming government shutdown, blaming Senate Democrats for catering to the radical left, and reaffirms his support for law enforcement and parental rights in education. The interview takes a personal turn as Donalds reflects on the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, praising his legacy in mobilizing young conservatives and defending Judeo-Christian values. The hour closes with lighter moments, including Donalds’ love for sports, his Florida State Seminoles predictions, and Clay and Buck’s banter about NFL picks and the Ryder Cup.
