Dems Suddenly Care About Crime

Next, the conversation shifts to crime reduction efforts in Washington, D.C., where Trump’s crackdown is earning praise from local business owners. Clay and Buck contrast this with Gavin Newsom’s sudden pivot to “law and order” policies in California, suggesting it’s a strategic move ahead of a likely 2028 presidential run. They also analyze Democratic strategy for 2028, speculating on potential candidates like Newsom, Wes Moore, and Gretchen Whitmer, and how identity politics and electability could shape the ticket.

The hour also covers Gallup polling showing record-high Republican satisfaction with the country’s direction, while Democrats report near-zero optimism—a stark partisan divide. Clay and Buck explore why Democrats refuse to credit Trump’s successes on the economy, border security, and crime reduction.

Media Spins The MN Church Shooting

The conversation pivots to the Minneapolis church shooting, where the hosts criticize mainstream media outlets like CNN and The New York Times for misrepresenting the shooter’s gender identity and downplaying the role of transgender issues in the tragedy.

Clay and Buck raise urgent questions about gender transition treatments for minors, exploring whether hormone therapy and puberty blockers could impact mental health and decision-making. They argue that these medical interventions, combined with untreated psychological conditions, may contribute to violent behavior—an issue they say the media refuses to address.

Alex Berenson

Special guest Alex Berenson joins to discuss the link between cannabis use and psychosis, citing research that high-potency THC can increase the risk of schizophrenia and violent behavior. Berenson warns that replacing alcohol with marijuana is not a public health win, arguing that cannabis poses greater long-term risks to brain health. The conversation also addresses misconceptions about SSRIs and antipsychotic medications, emphasizing their life-saving role for individuals with severe depression or psychosis and pushing back against political narratives demonizing these treatments.

Mary Katharine Ham

The hosts welcome Mary Katharine Ham, Fox News contributor and co-host of the “Normally” podcast, for a wide-ranging discussion. Topics include corporate disconnect from everyday Americans, the backlash against Cracker Barrel’s leadership, and the cultural significance of college football as a unifying force. They also tackle parental responsibility in preventing tragedies, stressing that parents must secure firearms and monitor mental health when warning signs are present—especially in light of recent shootings. Ham and the hosts slam media outlets for prioritizing ideology over facts, particularly in coverage of cases involving transgender shooters.

Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into a packed lineup of political and cultural hot topics shaping America. Clay and Buck start with positive economic news under President Trump, highlighting strong private sector wage growth, low gas prices, and a booming stock market. They argue that Democrats’ predictions of economic collapse have fallen flat as Trump’s policies continue to deliver results.

The hosts then tackle the controversy over Trump’s executive order on flag burning, clarifying misconceptions about its scope and the legal nuances tied to First Amendment protections. This sparks a broader debate on free speech, hate crime laws, and whether all flags—American, pride, or otherwise—should be treated equally under the law.

Next, the conversation shifts to crime reduction efforts in Washington, D.C., where Trump’s crackdown is earning praise from local business owners. Clay and Buck contrast this with Gavin Newsom’s sudden pivot to “law and order” policies in California, suggesting it’s a strategic move ahead of a likely 2028 presidential run. They also analyze Democratic strategy for 2028, speculating on potential candidates like Newsom, Wes Moore, and Gretchen Whitmer, and how identity politics and electability could shape the ticket.

The hour also covers Gallup polling showing record-high Republican satisfaction with the country’s direction, while Democrats report near-zero optimism—a stark partisan divide. Clay and Buck explore why Democrats refuse to credit Trump’s successes on the economy, border security, and crime reduction.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a hard-hitting discussion on public safety, mental health, and media accountability. The hour opens with a look at Labor Day travel and gas prices hitting a four-year low, contrasting today’s affordability with past inflationary spikes. From there, the conversation pivots to the Minneapolis church shooting, where the hosts criticize mainstream media outlets like CNN and The New York Times for allegedly misrepresenting the shooter’s gender identity and downplaying the role of transgender issues in the tragedy.

Clay and Buck raise urgent questions about gender transition treatments for minors, exploring whether hormone therapy and puberty blockers could impact mental health and decision-making. They argue that these medical interventions, combined with untreated psychological conditions, may contribute to violent behavior—an issue they say the media refuses to address.

The hour also dives deep into gun control debates, including mental health screenings for firearm ownership and the potential misuse of such laws against veterans with PTSD. The hosts reject “feel-good” legislation and instead advocate for practical security measures, such as armed guards in every school and house of worship, estimating a nationwide program could cost $10 billion annually. They highlight deterrence strategies like concealed carry laws and veteran-based security programs as effective ways to protect children.

Special guest Alex Berenson joins to discuss the link between cannabis use and psychosis, citing research that high-potency THC can increase the risk of schizophrenia and violent behavior. Berenson warns that replacing alcohol with marijuana is not a public health win, arguing that cannabis poses greater long-term risks to brain health. The conversation also addresses misconceptions about SSRIs and antipsychotic medications, emphasizing their life-saving role for individuals with severe depression or psychosis and pushing back against political narratives demonizing these treatments.

The hour closes with a strong message to parents: no drug that alters consciousness is without consequences. Berenson urges families to educate teens about the risks of THC, Adderall, and other substances, while also calling on policymakers to resist industry pressure to reschedule cannabis under federal law.

Hour 3 - Corporate Wokeness vs. Brand Loyalty

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show wraps up the week with a lively mix of cultural commentary, political analysis, and audience interaction. The hour kicks off with reactions to earlier discussions on cannabis and mental health, before pivoting to a major trending topic: Cracker Barrel’s controversial rebrand. Clay and Buck blast the company’s $700 million marketing overhaul, arguing that corporate America’s obsession with “woke branding” alienates loyal customers. They compare this misstep to other brand disasters like Bud Light and Disney, emphasizing the importance of knowing your customer and citing Domino’s successful turnaround as an example of honesty and quality-driven strategy.

The conversation then shifts to Democratic Party credibility issues, spotlighting a viral interview where Charlemagne tha God grills former DNC Chair Jamie Harrison for misleading voters about President Biden’s performance. Clay and Buck criticize political “code-switching” and inauthenticity, calling out politicians who adopt fake accents or personas to pander to voters.

Next, the hosts welcome Mary Katharine Ham, Fox News contributor and co-host of the “Normally” podcast, for a wide-ranging discussion. Topics include corporate disconnect from everyday Americans, the backlash against Cracker Barrel’s leadership, and the cultural significance of college football as a unifying force. They also tackle parental responsibility in preventing tragedies, stressing that parents must secure firearms and monitor mental health when warning signs are present—especially in light of recent shootings. Ham and the hosts slam media outlets for prioritizing ideology over facts, particularly in coverage of cases involving transgender shooters.

The hour closes on a lighter note with a spirited debate about jersey etiquette and autograph culture. Clay argues that grown men shouldn’t wear jerseys of athletes significantly younger than them or compete with kids for autographs, sparking passionate listener calls and humorous anecdotes.
