You Can't Deny Success A deep dive into President Donald Trump’s historic 36-hour diplomatic marathon and the groundbreaking Gaza peace deal. Clay and Buck open the hour by contrasting Trump’s high-energy international diplomacy with Joe Biden’s limited schedule, highlighting Trump’s whirlwind trip to Israel and Egypt, his speeches to the Knesset, meetings with world leaders, and the signing of a landmark ceasefire agreement that secured the release of all Israeli hostages and nearly 2,000 Palestinian detainees. The hosts emphasize that this achievement positions Trump as a dominant figure in Middle East peace negotiations—surpassing past presidents from Carter to Obama. The discussion features reactions from unlikely sources: left-leaning media figures and celebrities such as Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Joe Scarborough, who publicly acknowledged Trump’s success. Clay and Buck play clips from CNN, MSNBC, and prominent Democrats praising Trump’s role in brokering peace, noting how even Trump’s fiercest critics are conceding victory. They explore whether this diplomatic triumph will resonate with everyday Americans or remain a major news story without shifting public opinion, particularly among Jewish voters. The conversation touches on cultural and political dynamics within the Jewish community, analyzing whether Trump’s achievement could influence voting trends. A Bet is a Bet Alyssa Farah Griffin, former Trump White House communications director turned TV personality, made a bet that she’d wear a MAGA hat if President Trump brought the hostages home. Where is that hat, Alyssa? Corruption Masterclass Legal trouble for New York Attorney General Letitia James, who faces allegations of mortgage fraud tied to a Virginia property. Clay and Buck break down the indictment details, including claims that James misrepresented the home as a second residence while allegedly housing family members rent-free—one reportedly a convicted felon. They debate her potential defense strategy, jury dynamics, and whether political bias could influence the outcome, while noting her high-powered legal team and the broader implications for accountability. Eric Trump Calls In  A high-profile conversation featuring Eric Trump, discussing his new book Under Siege: My Family’s Fight to Save Our Nation, which has surged to the top of Amazon’s bestseller list. Eric shares candid insights into the Trump family’s battle against what he calls unprecedented “lawfare,” including multiple indictments, media attacks, and efforts to silence their voices. He details the staggering cost of defending against politically motivated investigations, the Russia collusion hoax, IRS leaks, and social media censorship, framing these challenges as part of a broader fight for free speech and constitutional values.The discussion also highlights President Trump’s historic achievement in brokering Middle East peace, a diplomatic breakthrough that even mainstream media and late-night hosts acknowledged as impressive. Eric emphasizes how Trump’s business acumen and results-driven mindset—shared by figures like Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff —enabled him to succeed where career politicians failed. The segment underscores Trump’s resilience, his “superhuman” focus, and the enduring energy behind the MAGA movement, which Eric calls “the greatest political movement in American history.” Make sure you never miss a second of the show by subscribing to the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton show podcast wherever you get your podcasts! ihr.fm/3InlkL8   For the latest updates from Clay & Buck, visit our website https://www.clayandbuck.com/   Connect with Clay Travis and Buck Sexton:  X - https://x.com/clayandbuck FB - https://www.facebook.com/ClayandBuck/ IG - https://www.instagram.com/clayandbuck/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuck Rumble - https://rumble.com/c/ClayandBuck TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@clayandbuckFollow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuckSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show dives into a mix of breaking political analysis, cultural commentary, and legal drama. The hosts begin by continuing coverage of President Donald Trump’s historic Middle East peace deal and the release of Israeli hostages, framing it as the biggest story of the week and teasing Eric Trump’s upcoming appearance to discuss his father’s diplomatic triumph and bestselling book. The conversation then shifts to 2028 election speculation, spotlighting a heated debate from the Pivot podcast featuring Kara Swisher and NYU professor Scott Galloway.

They explore Harris’s political future, her name recognition, and the challenges facing female candidates in the Democratic Party. Next, the hour tackles a fiery exchange on The View between actress Cheryl Hines—wife of RFK Jr.—and co-host Sonny Hostin. The hosts critique Hostin’s credential-based attacks on RFK Jr.’s qualifications as HHS Secretary and discuss broader issues of fairness in media treatment of political spouses. Clay and Buck argue that Cheryl Hines held her own during the confrontation and highlight the hypocrisy compared to how Jill Biden and other Democratic spouses are treated. The discussion pivots to legal trouble for New York Attorney General Letitia James, who faces allegations of mortgage fraud tied to a Virginia property. Clay and Buck break down the indictment details, including claims that James misrepresented the home as a second residence while allegedly housing family members rent-free—one reportedly a convicted felon. They debate her potential defense strategy, jury dynamics, and whether political bias could influence the outcome, while noting her high-powered legal team and the broader implications for accountability. Adding a lighter twist, the hosts share personal anecdotes about camping and “glamping,” sparking a humorous debate on outdoor living versus modern comforts.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic blend of historical reflection, political analysis, and continued celebration of President Donald Trump’s landmark Middle East peace agreement. Buck Sexton leads the hour solo, diving into the cultural and geopolitical significance of the day, which he dubs both “Middle East Peace Day” and “Columbus Day.” The hour begins with a spirited defense of Columbus Day, pushing back against progressive efforts to rebrand it as Indigenous Peoples Day. Buck critiques Vice President Kamala Harris’s 2021 remarks on colonialism, arguing that conquest and conflict are universal aspects of human history—not unique to European explorers. He highlights the brutality and tribal warfare among pre-Columbian civilizations such as the Incas and Aztecs and challenges the modern narrative that vilifies European exploration while ignoring indigenous practices like slavery and cannibalism. Transitioning to current events, Buck celebrates the Trump administration’s success in brokering peace between Israel and Hamas, calling it the “dawn of a new Middle East.” He plays audio from President Trump’s speech in Egypt, where Trump declares this moment the beginning of a “golden age” for Israel and the region. Buck emphasizes that this achievement—coming in year one of Trump’s second term—is a testament to Trump’s growth, focus, and the strength of his new team. He credits Trump’s strategic leadership and deal-making skills for bringing together unlikely Arab and Muslim partners to pressure Hamas into releasing hostages and agreeing to peace. The hour features a heartfelt interview with Robin Van Etten, U.S. CEO and global COO of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. She shares the emotional impact of the hostage returns, the role of faith and prayer in the process, and the fellowship’s efforts to support families through medical and psychological care. Robin praises Trump and Netanyahu for their tireless work and acknowledges the unwavering support of millions of Christians worldwide. Buck also addresses critics who question whether supporting Israel aligns with “America First” principles. He argues that regional stability benefits the U.S. by reducing global terrorism and preventing future attacks like 9/11, Madrid, and London. He contrasts Trump’s success with the failures of past Democratic administrations, particularly under Obama and Biden, and calls out the left’s misguided foreign policy elitism. Toward the end of the hour, Buck previews upcoming political races, including the Virginia gubernatorial contest, the New Jersey governor’s race, and the New York City mayoral election. A caller highlights key moments from a recent Virginia debate, expressing optimism about Republican candidate Winsome Sears. Buck promises deeper coverage in future episodes.

In this episode, Tudor sits down with author Tom Sturges to unpack the mysteries of the male mind. Drawing from his book “Men Explained Finally,” Sturges shares candid observations about how men think, communicate, and connect emotionally—often through a lens shaped since adolescence. Together, they explore why men crave praise, how emotional expression differs between genders, and the powerful role of physical attraction and self-image in modern relationships. This honest and often humorous discussion sheds light on the real differences between men and women—and how empathy and open communication can bring them closer together.

 Analysis of President Donald Trump’s latest cabinet meeting and his bold claim of negotiating peace in eight major conflicts worldwide, including Armenia-Azerbaijan, Congo-Rwanda, Iran-Israel, India-Pakistan, Cambodia-Thailand, Serbia-Kosovo, and Ethiopia-Egypt. Clay and Buck spotlight Trump’s efforts to end the Israel-Hamas war, secure hostage releases, and pivot toward resolving the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which remains stalled due to Vladimir Putin’s territorial ambitions and disregard for casualties. The hosts debate whether Trump’s peace initiatives could merit a Nobel Peace Prize, contrasting his tangible achievements with past awards given for far less. Buck broadcasts from Washington, DC and argues that the shutdown highlights the bloated nature of government and suggests that essential services continue to function without the non-essential workforce. Breaking news on James Comey’s trial, where the former FBI Director pleaded not guilty to federal charges of lying to Congress and obstructing proceedings. Buck critiques the hypocrisy of Democrats warning about “dangerous precedent,” pointing out years of lawfare against Donald Trump and his allies.  Buck revisits Comey’s controversial history, including the Martha Stewart prosecution and his role in targeting General Michael Flynn, framing the trial as a symbolic pushback against a two-tiered justice system—even if conviction remains unlikely.  Buck played an old clip from Rush Limbaugh in May of 2017, where he warned us about Comey and Brennan.   New York Attorney General Letitia James charged as part of a mortgage fraud investigation.
