The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show

• Daily Review with Clay and Buck - May 12 2025

  Release of American Hostage Edan Alexander The release of American hostage Edan Alexander from Hamas custody is celebrated as a significant diplomatic win. Clay and Buck credit Trump’s administration for prioritizing American lives abroad and securing the release of hostages in hostile regions. They also discuss the controversy surrounding a luxury jet reportedly gifted by Qatar, framing it as a distraction from Trump’s broader achievements, including a reported $1 trillion in Middle East investment commitments. Trump Gives Refugee Status to South Africans Clay and Buck begin the hour with lighthearted nostalgia about voicemail and Sports Illustrated, before transitioning into a serious discussion about the Trump administration’s decision to resettle 50 white South African refugees in the United States. The hosts explore the backlash from mainstream media and progressive institutions, including the Episcopal Church’s refusal to assist in the resettlement, framing it as a glaring double standard in U.S. immigration policy. They contrast the outrage over these 50 legal refugees with the lack of scrutiny over the millions of illegal immigrants who crossed the southern border under the Biden administration. Trump’s comments on the racial violence and land seizures in South Africa are highlighted, as well as the broader issue of state-sponsored discrimination and the erosion of safety in the region. Nick Adams on Trump's Comeback Nick Adams, author of the upcoming book "From Mar-a-Lago to Mars: President Trump’s Great American Comeback." Adams discusses Trump’s resilience, masculinity, and cultural influence, particularly among young men and athletes. He argues that Trump’s authenticity and refusal to conform have made him a symbol of strength and leadership, not just in America but across the Western world. Dr. Nicole Saphier Joins the C&B Pod Network The hour begins with the introduction of Dr. Nicole Saphier, a board-certified radiologist and Fox News contributor, who joins the Clay and Buck Podcast Network with her new show, "Wellness Unmasked." Dr. Saphier discusses her goals for the podcast, which will focus on cutting through misinformation in health and wellness, from cold plunges and saunas to chronic illness and food science. A major topic of discussion is President Trump’s executive order aimed at lowering prescription drug prices. Dr. Saphier explains the significance of this move, noting that unlike President Biden’s limited Medicare-focused efforts, Trump’s plan targets broader negotiations across Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers. She highlights the legal and political challenges ahead, particularly from Big Pharma, but praises the administration’s aggressive stance on healthcare affordability. The conversation shifts to the controversial nomination of Dr. Casey Means as Surgeon General. Dr. Saphier critiques the pick, citing Means’ lack of completed medical training and limited clinical experience. She emphasizes the need for a unifying, credible figure in public health who aligns with both the “Make America Great Again” and “Make America Healthy Again” movements. In a rapid-fire “lightning round,” Dr. Saphier weighs in on popular wellness trends like infrared saunas and cold plunges, offering practical insights into their health benefits. Clay and Buck also share personal anecdotes about their own experiences with these trends, adding humor and relatability to the segment.

• Hour 2 - Trump Gives Refugee Status to South Africans

  Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the political and cultural flashpoints dominating headlines, with a sharp focus on immigration, refugee policy, and the broader implications of race-based politics. Clay and Buck begin the hour with lighthearted nostalgia about voicemail and Sports Illustrated, before transitioning into a serious discussion about the Trump administration’s decision to resettle 50 white South African refugees in the United States. The hosts explore the backlash from mainstream media and progressive institutions, including the Episcopal Church’s refusal to assist in the resettlement, framing it as a glaring double standard in U.S. immigration policy. They contrast the outrage over these 50 legal refugees with the lack of scrutiny over the millions of illegal immigrants who crossed the southern border under the Biden administration. Trump’s comments on the racial violence and land seizures in South Africa are highlighted, as well as the broader issue of state-sponsored discrimination and the erosion of safety in the region. Listeners hear firsthand accounts from callers, including a former South African military veteran and a South Dakota farmer who works with South African laborers. These testimonials underscore the dangers faced by white South Africans and the value they bring to the U.S. as law-abiding, hard-working immigrants. The hosts argue that this refugee policy aligns with the original intent of the U.S. refugee program—offering protection to those facing persecution based on immutable characteristics like race or religion. The hour also revisits Trump’s executive order to lower prescription drug prices, with a humorous anecdote about a wealthy friend shocked by the price disparity between the U.S. and the U.K. for weight-loss medications like Ozempic. The hosts use this to reinforce Trump’s populist appeal and his focus on economic fairness for everyday Americans. Wrapping up, Clay and Buck celebrate the stock market’s strong performance, crediting Trump’s economic policies and tariff strategy for the rebound. They tease upcoming interviews and continue to frame the Trump administration’s recent actions as a series of decisive wins on immigration, foreign policy, and healthcare reform.
