Follow the Epstein Money The Epstein Transparency Act, which passed unanimously in the Senate after near-unanimous House approval. Buck breaks down what this means: once President Trump signs the bill, the Justice Department will have 30 days to release Jeffrey Epstein-related files. The discussion explores whether these disclosures will provide real answers or lead to further demands for transparency. Buck emphasizes the unanswered question of Epstein’s billion-dollar fortune and the suspicious financial transactions flagged by JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank. He argues that following the money is key to uncovering the truth. Clay Calls in from Italy Clay calls from Rome and shares details of his mission: delivering an invitation for the Pope to throw out the first pitch at a future Chicago White Sox game, a unique gesture tied to the team’s new ownership and stadium plans. This segment blends sports, faith, and global intrigue, making it a must-hear for fans of both baseball and world affairs. A Critical Race in NC Buck welcomes Michael Whatley, former RNC Chair and current candidate for U.S. Senate in North Carolina. Whatley details the fallout from Governor Roy Cooper’s veto of legislation requiring sheriffs to honor ICE detainers, which has led to a surge in illegal immigration and crime. They discuss shocking statistics, including 21,000 students absent from Charlotte schools in one day due to immigration enforcement fears, and over 200 arrests of criminal illegal aliens in recent ICE operations. Whatley warns of the massive financial burden on state resources—from Medicaid to education—and contrasts his tough-on-crime stance with Cooper’s record of vetoing tax cuts, police pay raises, and bills protecting women’s sports. He predicts the North Carolina Senate race will be the most expensive in U.S. history, with Democrats pouring in hundreds of millions to flip the seat. The Misled Boss Babes Buck dives into a Pew Research study on marriage trends among Gen Z, revealing that only 61% of 12th-grade girls want to marry compared to 74% of boys. He critiques cultural messaging that promotes “boss babe” ideology and hookup culture, arguing it misleads young women and undermines long-term happiness. Buck contrasts this with a resurgence of traditional values among young men, who increasingly reject toxic masculinity narratives and embrace leadership, family, and faith. He calls for a cultural reset that prioritizes stable family formation and meaningful relationships over superficial social media-driven dating norms. Listeners join the discussion, sharing real-world observations about generational shifts in marriage and family priorities. Buck closes with candid insights on dating culture, noting how social media amplifies superficiality and how men and women differ in what they value in partners. He underscores timeless truths about purpose, family, and the pursuit of meaning beyond material success.

The hour opens with Buck Sexton previewing Clay’s surprise international trip, which turns out to be a headline-making visit to Rome where Clay met Pope Francis at the Vatican. Clay shares details of his mission: delivering an invitation for the Pope to throw out the first pitch at a future Chicago White Sox game, a unique gesture tied to the team’s new ownership and stadium plans. This segment blends sports, faith, and global intrigue, making it a must-hear for fans of both baseball and world affairs.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a deep dive into two major stories dominating headlines: Trump’s high-stakes diplomacy with Saudi Arabia and the escalating immigration enforcement battle in North Carolina. Buck Sexton kicks off the hour by revisiting the upcoming release of the Epstein Transparency Act files, warning listeners that even with President Trump’s signature, questions about redactions and completeness will linger. He predicts this will mirror historic controversies like the JFK assassination files—fueling skepticism and demands for more transparency. The conversation then shifts to Trump’s meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, highlighting a landmark announcement: Saudi Arabia will invest $1 trillion in the United States, up from a previous $600 billion commitment. Buck explains why this matters for American jobs, technology, and energy security. He underscores Saudi Arabia’s strategic role as a bulwark against Iran and its potential normalization with Israel—a move that could reshape Middle East geopolitics. Trump’s agreements with the Saudis span civil nuclear energy, critical minerals, and artificial intelligence, signaling a major boost for U.S. innovation and manufacturing. Buck also defends Trump’s pragmatic approach to foreign policy, contrasting it with Democratic hypocrisy on human rights and global engagement. Next, Buck covers Trump’s remarks on tariffs and economic policy, including plans for a $2,000 dividend to low- and middle-income Americans and aggressive debt reduction. He blasts mainstream media for fixating on Jamal Khashoggi and 9/11 during the Saudi meeting instead of acknowledging the economic benefits of Trump’s diplomacy. In the second half of the hour, Buck welcomes Michael Whatley, former RNC Chair and current candidate for U.S. Senate in North Carolina. Whatley details the fallout from Governor Roy Cooper’s veto of legislation requiring sheriffs to honor ICE detainers, which has led to a surge in illegal immigration and crime. They discuss shocking statistics, including 21,000 students absent from Charlotte schools in one day due to immigration enforcement fears, and over 200 arrests of criminal illegal aliens in recent ICE operations.

He predicts the North Carolina Senate race will be the most expensive in U.S. history, with Democrats pouring in hundreds of millions to flip the seat. The hour closes with listener talkbacks on the Epstein file release and speculation about fallout for celebrities and politicians linked to Epstein’s network. Buck reminds listeners that expectations of bombshell revelations may be unrealistic, drawing parallels to the overhyped Trump tax return saga.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful mix of breaking political analysis and cultural commentary. Buck opens with the latest on the Epstein Transparency Act, warning listeners that even after President Trump signs the bill and the DOJ releases files within 30 days, Democrats will weaponize the process. He predicts endless claims of tampering and incomplete disclosures, despite the fact that victim testimony has never implicated Trump. Buck cites comments from CNN and Democrat lawmakers, highlighting their strategy to link Trump to Epstein regardless of evidence. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt reinforces that leaked narratives are politically motivated and reminds listeners that Trump was consistently cleared in victim statements. The conversation shifts to FBI credibility and intelligence reform, sparked by revelations about the would-be Trump assassin and parallels to the Nashville school shooter manifesto cover-up. Buck argues that federal agencies have lost public trust and explores whether efforts by leaders like Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel can restore integrity. He also discusses Trump’s push to eliminate the Senate filibuster, framing it as essential for advancing election integrity measures, voter ID laws, and ending universal mail-in ballots. Buck warns Republicans to act before Democrats seize the advantage, emphasizing the stakes for future elections. In the second half of the hour, Buck dives into a Pew Research study on marriage trends among Gen Z, revealing that only 61% of 12th-grade girls want to marry compared to 74% of boys. He critiques cultural messaging that promotes “boss babe” ideology and hookup culture, arguing it misleads young women and undermines long-term happiness. Buck contrasts this with a resurgence of traditional values among young men, who increasingly reject toxic masculinity narratives and embrace leadership, family, and faith. He calls for a cultural reset that prioritizes stable family formation and meaningful relationships over superficial social media-driven dating norms.

An Exercise in Media Propaganda Buck Sexton is solo hosting while Clay is away on a super secret trip overseas for a very important meeting, and he kicks off the hour with updates on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which is set for a vote during the program. Buck explains why Democrats are pushing this as a political distraction and emphasizes Donald Trump’s stance: full transparency and release of all Epstein-related documents. The discussion highlights Trump’s past actions, including banning Epstein from his club, and contrasts that with deep ties Epstein had to prominent Democrats like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. Buck also addresses the media narrative and propaganda tactics, warning listeners about how focus and repetition are used to smear political opponents. He connects this to his upcoming book, Manufacturing Delusion, which explores the science and history of mind control, propaganda, and mass psychosis. Buck argues that Trump Derangement Syndrome has become a defining pathology of our time, citing expert commentary on how obsessive hatred of Trump has reached clinical levels. He draws parallels to authoritarian regimes and explains how manufactured hysteria threatens American democracy more than any external crisis. Miranda Devine Blockbuster An exclusive interview featuring Miranda Devine of the New York Post, who reveals shocking details about Thomas Crooks, the would-be assassin of President Donald Trump. Devine explains how Crooks’ online footprint—spanning platforms like YouTube, Gab, and DeviantArt—shows a disturbing evolution from pro-Trump rhetoric to violent anti-Trump threats, including assassination fantasies. She highlights Crooks’ use of aliases, his ties to extremist forums, and even gender identity confusion, noting his adoption of they/them pronouns and links to the “furry” subculture. Devine questions why the FBI and Secret Service failed to act despite clear warning signs, raising concerns about possible agency negligence or concealment. The conversation pivots to Hunter Biden, after audio surfaces of him launching personal attacks on Devine, calling her unethical and insulting her appearance. Buck and Miranda dissect Biden’s behavior, emphasizing his inability to refute documented evidence of corruption involving foreign business deals and influence-peddling during Joe Biden’s vice presidency. The segment underscores the Biden family scandal, Hunter’s legal immunity, and the media’s complicity in shielding Democrats from accountability. Government Theft Adeep dive into illegal immigration under Biden, highlighting the estimated 10 million migrants who entered the U.S. during his presidency. Buck argues that this influx has strained housing, healthcare, and job markets, framing it as a massive economic and social burden on American taxpayers. He cites JD Vance’s remarks on housing affordability, explaining how unchecked immigration and limited housing supply have driven prices sky-high, especially in cities like New York where migrants occupy up to 25% of hotel rooms at taxpayer expense. The conversation expands to legal immigration reform, with Buck and Governor Ron DeSantis stressing the need for a critical reassessment of current policies. DeSantis warns against the assumption that all legal immigration is inherently good, urging a focus on assimilation and cultural cohesion. Buck uses a striking analogy—too much water can kill you—to illustrate how excessive immigration, even legal, can destabilize a nation. He calls for a pause to restore continuity and shared American identity. Eric Trump Joins the Show Buck welcomes Eric Trump for an in-depth interview on the economy and Trump administration policies. Eric touts his book Under Siege and outlines why he’s “bullish on America,” citing Trump’s aggressive energy strategy, including nuclear and drilling initiatives, as key drivers of GDP growth. He explains how low energy costs, bonus depreciation, historic tax cuts, and tariffs will fuel manufacturing, AI, crypto, and inward investment. Eric contrasts Trump’s economic record with Biden’s “four years of 10% inflation,” blaming Biden for skyrocketing housing and energy costs. He predicts a booming U.S. economy in 2026, bolstered by global investment and trade deals.
