Hour 2 - Why Trump Won with People
Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the political fallout of the Russiagate scandal, the media’s role in perpetuating misinformation, and the enduring political strength of President Donald Trump. Clay Travis opens the hour with personal anecdotes before launching into a powerful monologue comparing Trump’s 2016 election victory to Tom Brady’s first Super Bowl win—an unexpected upset that later proved to be the beginning of a legendary run. This analogy underscores the central theme: Trump’s underestimated political talent and the establishment’s refusal to accept his legitimacy. The hour explores how Democrats, unable to comprehend Hillary Clinton’s loss, fueled the Russia collusion narrative. Clay argues that this disbelief birthed the Russiagate hoax, which he claims was orchestrated by the deep state, intelligence agencies, and mainstream media. He emphasizes that the Steele dossier and other allegations were part of a broader effort to delegitimize Trump’s presidency. Listeners call in to weigh in on the origins of the Russia investigation, Hillary Clinton’s role, and the media’s complicity. One caller suggests that Clinton’s loss triggered a psychological spiral, while another highlights how the narrative was used to distract from Trump’s policy successes. Clay reinforces that Trump’s presidency—particularly the first six months—has delivered on key issues like the economy, border security, and crime reduction. The discussion also touches on the Epstein files, with Clay warning conservatives not to fall into traps set by Democrats using right-wing criticisms to attack Trump. He urges listeners to focus on Trump’s intent and accomplishments rather than personal controversies, arguing that many of the attacks against him are politically motivated and lack substance. Throughout the hour, Clay stresses the importance of recognizing Trump as a generational political force, comparing his impact to that of Ronald Reagan. He critiques the intelligence community’s political bias and calls for greater accountability and balance in government institutions.

Hour 3 - Where Are the Dads?
Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the intersection of culture, media, and masculinity, with Clay Travis leading a passionate monologue on the state of American values and the role of fatherhood in society. The hour opens with a lighthearted update on Buck Sexton’s family travels and a push to grow the show’s YouTube presence, highlighting the shift in media consumption from traditional radio to video-based platforms. Clay then transitions into a viral marketing story involving actress Sydney Sweeney and American Eagle, using it as a springboard to critique the fashion industry's pivot away from traditional beauty standards. He argues that the return to aspirational advertising—featuring attractive models—is a sign of cultural healing, contrasting it with past campaigns from brands like Victoria’s Secret and Nike that embraced body positivity and inclusivity, which he claims were commercially unsuccessful. The conversation evolves into a broader cultural critique, where Clay draws parallels between advertising trends and the decline of traditional family structures in pop culture. He laments the disappearance of strong father figures in modern television, contrasting it with the nuclear family portrayals in classic sitcoms like The Cosby Show, Family Ties, Growing Pains, and Home Improvement. He argues that the absence of dads in media contributes to a crisis of masculinity and a lack of aspirational role models for young boys. Clay also reflects on the impact of social media, likening it to a “carnival funhouse mirror” that distorts reality and has led to misguided cultural shifts since 2014. He ties this distortion to rising teen depression, the collapse of race relations, and the influence of movements like BLM. He asserts that society is beginning to reject these distortions and return to more grounded, traditional values. Listener call-ins and talkbacks add humor and support to the discussion, including a satirical message from “Hunter Biden” and a defense of Kurt Warner. The hour closes with a tribute to the late Malcolm-Jamal Warner and a nostalgic look at the cultural impact of The Cosby Show, reinforcing Clay’s call for a return to media that celebrates strong, present fathers.

Bonus: Hunter Melts Down, Targeting the Funders of Riots across America & Combating the Threat of Drone Attacks in Coming Decades
In this bonus episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, hosts Senator Cruz and Ben Ferguson discuss: 🔥 1. Hunter Biden’s Interview and Political Commentary The episode opens with a critical discussion of a recent, controversial interview with Hunter Biden, in which he allegedly expresses anger at Democratic elites and hints at a potential presidential run. Cruz and Ferguson mock the interview, describing it as a “meltdown” and using it to criticize the Democratic Party, portraying Hunter as emblematic of its perceived dysfunction. They highlight Hunter’s comments about George Clooney, David Axelrod, and Nancy Pelosi, and his inflammatory remarks about immigration and foreign policy, including a hypothetical threat to invade El Salvador. 💰 2. The Stop Funders Act Cruz introduces new legislation called the Stop Funders Act, aimed at targeting individuals and organizations that financially support violent riots. The bill proposes adding “rioting” as a predicate crime under the RICO Act, allowing prosecutors to pursue those funding organized violence, including protests linked to Antifa, BLM, and pro-illegal immigration movements. Cruz argues that many of these protests are not spontaneous but are funded by domestic and foreign entities, and that cutting off financial support is key to stopping them. 🚁 3. Drone Threats and National Security The final segment focuses on the growing threat of drones used by criminal cartels and terrorists. Cruz cites examples such as drones scouting a Trump rally and smuggling contraband into prisons, arguing that U.S. law enforcement lacks the authority and tools to counter these threats effectively. He calls for bipartisan legislation to expand drone mitigation powers for federal and local agencies, warning of potential future attacks involving drones.
