  • Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Mar 2 2026
    Mar 2 2026
    Operation Epic Fury Wall‑to‑wall coverage of a rapidly escalating U.S.–Iran war, as President Donald Trump delivers live White House remarks announcing ongoing “large‑scale combat operations” in Iran following Operation Midnight Hammer—a joint U.S.–Israel strike that, according to the president, obliterated Iran’s nuclear program and decapitated its leadership, including the Ayatollah, while eliminating “49 top Iranian leaders.” Trump outlines four core objectives: destroy Iran’s missile capabilities and production, annihilate its navy, ensure the regime can never obtain a nuclear weapon, and halt Tehran’s arming and direction of terrorist proxies. He confirms four U.S. service members have been killed in action, projects a four‑to‑five‑week campaign (with the capacity to go longer), and vows that rebuilding Iranian nuclear sites “anywhere else” will be prevented. Clay and Buck frame the strikes as a strategic turning point after decades of failed diplomacy with Tehran, calling it a decisive end to “kicking the can down the road.” Buck—drawing on his CIA background—argues Iran’s rulers misread Trump’s red lines and underestimated U.S.–Israeli intelligence and precision strike capability, noting how daytime, deep‑penetration attacks and air supremacy signal a technological gulf that Iran’s air defenses and foreign‑sourced systems could not bridge. The hosts emphasize the distinction between the Iranian people and the clerical regime, predicting that the next question dominating geopolitics will be “Who will rule Iran?” The Czar of Talk Radio Guest Michael Berry, the “Czar of Talk,” who breaks down how the massive U.S.–Israel strike on Iran is consuming all political oxygen and disrupting expected turnout patterns in Texas—especially after a suspected terror‑motivated shooting in Austin heightened local anxiety. Berry explains that early projections of roughly 40% turnout may collapse, and notes that the biggest race in Texas—the Republican U.S. Senate primary—has become a referendum on longtime Senator John Cornyn, whom the MAGA base increasingly views as part of a McConnell‑aligned establishment. Berry outlines rising support for Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt, and details why Paxton’s pro‑Trump credentials and Cornyn’s past criticism of Trump are shaping voter sentiment. A major discussion emerges around Operation Chaos‑style crossover voting, as some listeners consider voting in the Democratic primary to help Jasmine Crockett win. Berry sharply warns against it, arguing that Republicans cannot afford to abandon their own primary when critical MAGA‑vs‑establishment battles are on the ballot. Clay and Buck analyze the likely outcomes: a Paxton‑vs‑Cornyn runoff in May and a Democratic matchup where either Jasmine Crockett or James Talarico could emerge, though Berry predicts Crockett’s base turnout—particularly among Black Democrats—may deliver her a surprise win. They discuss why Crockett would be a disastrous general‑election candidate in deep‑red Texas, while Talarico, though still weak statewide, may fare slightly better. FREEDOM The astonishing global response to President Trump’s coordinated U.S.–Israel strikes that decapitated Iran’s leadership, pointing out that oil markets and the stock market remain stable—a sign that world markets view the strikes as controlled and effective. They update listeners on a disturbing terror‑inspired mass shooting in Austin, in which the suspect wore pro‑Iran apparel and reportedly kept images of Iranian regime leaders at home, underscoring fears of domestic radicalization as Iran lashes out regionally. The hosts then shift to the extraordinary outpouring of joy from Iranian‑American communities across Los Angeles, Washington, New York, and elsewhere—massive street celebrations praising President Trump for toppling the regime that oppressed millions for nearly five decades. Clay highlights Senator John Fetterman’s surprising break from his party, quoting Fetterman’s blunt criticism of Democrats who oppose the only strategy that can truly prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Buck frames the political divide as another case of “reflexive anti‑Trumpism,” arguing that Democrats oppose Trump’s actions simply because Trump is the one taking them—even when those actions advance human rights, weaken terrorism, and liberate millions. Clay compares the moment to the fall of the Berlin Wall, noting how Venezuela, Cuba, and now Iran are each seeing transformational change as a result of Trump’s foreign‑policy doctrine. Powerful emotional testimony from Iranian‑Americans: one caller describes weeping with gratitude as family members in Iran expressed hope for the first time in decades; another recounts growing up in a system that demanded children chant “Death to Israel” while suppressing dissent. Callers emphasize that Iranians view...

  • Hour 1 - Operation Epic Fury
    Mar 2 2026
    Hour 1 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show opens with wall‑to‑wall coverage of a rapidly escalating U.S.–Iran war, as President Donald Trump delivers live White House remarks announcing ongoing “large‑scale combat operations” in Iran following Operation Midnight Hammer—a joint U.S.–Israel strike that, according to the president, obliterated Iran’s nuclear program and decapitated its leadership, including the Ayatollah, while eliminating “49 top Iranian leaders.” Trump outlines four core objectives: destroy Iran’s missile capabilities and production, annihilate its navy, ensure the regime can never obtain a nuclear weapon, and halt Tehran’s arming and direction of terrorist proxies. He confirms four U.S. service members have been killed in action, projects a four‑to‑five‑week campaign (with the capacity to go longer), and vows that rebuilding Iranian nuclear sites “anywhere else” will be prevented. Clay and Buck frame the strikes as a strategic turning point after decades of failed diplomacy with Tehran, calling it a decisive end to “kicking the can down the road.” Buck—drawing on his CIA background—argues Iran’s rulers misread Trump’s red lines and underestimated U.S.–Israeli intelligence and precision strike capability, noting how daytime, deep‑penetration attacks and air supremacy signal a technological gulf that Iran’s air defenses and foreign‑sourced systems could not bridge. The hosts emphasize the distinction between the Iranian people and the clerical regime, predicting that the next question dominating geopolitics will be “Who will rule Iran?” The hour then widens to the broader strategic landscape. Clay contends Trump is operating with a “60‑year vision,” citing a string of bold moves: the June Iran strike, the take‑down of Maduro in Venezuela, and prior targeted actions (including Qasem Soleimani), all executed with minimal U.S. casualties so far. They argue recent assassination attempts on Trump and years of legal warfare have sharpened his resolve and accelerated a doctrine of deterrence through punishment: if Americans are targeted, the response will be crushing. In that spirit, they replay Trump’s 2020 radio vow that adversaries who “mess around” with America would face consequences “never seen before,” and they amplify the national‑security message voiced by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: “We didn’t start this war; under President Trump, we’re finishing it.” Listeners are brought inside the unfolding theater: Israel’s air‑raid sirens, civilians sheltering, and American travelers stranded near Tel Aviv after flights were canceled mid‑boarding. The hosts preview guest coverage with Michael Berry to keep tabs on Texas primary politics that are competing for attention with breaking war news. They also field early audience reactions on two pivotal operational questions. First: boots on the ground—the consensus is that covert special‑operations teams may already be in play, but no large‑scale ground invasion is expected; victory hinges on airpower, cyber, drones, and precision raids. Second: succession in Iran—without U.S. “nation‑building,” the power vacuum must be filled by Iranian actors; the coming weeks will reveal whether reformers or new hard‑liners consolidate control. Clay and Buck close Hour 1 by inviting Iranian‑American callers to share real‑time perspective from their families and communities, underscoring two takeaways for listeners and decision‑makers: (1) the campaign’s success will be judged by who governs Iran when the smoke clears, and (2) how quickly U.S.–Israel air dominance can decapitate hostile networks without committing mass ground forces may redefine Middle East deterrence, global perceptions of American resolve, and the political stakes heading into the 2026 primaries.

  • Hour 2 - The Czar of Talk Radio
    Mar 2 2026
    Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show focuses heavily on the explosive intersection of Texas primary politics, Iran‑war fallout, and the response from Iranian‑American communities as global events reshape the 2026 landscape. The hour opens with guest Michael Berry, the “Czar of Talk,” who breaks down how the massive U.S.–Israel strike on Iran is consuming all political oxygen and disrupting expected turnout patterns in Texas—especially after a suspected terror‑motivated shooting in Austin heightened local anxiety. Berry explains that early projections of roughly 40% turnout may collapse, and notes that the biggest race in Texas—the Republican U.S. Senate primary—has become a referendum on longtime Senator John Cornyn, whom the MAGA base increasingly views as part of a McConnell‑aligned establishment. Berry outlines rising support for Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt, and details why Paxton’s pro‑Trump credentials and Cornyn’s past criticism of Trump are shaping voter sentiment. A major discussion emerges around Operation Chaos‑style crossover voting, as some listeners consider voting in the Democratic primary to help Jasmine Crockett win. Berry sharply warns against it, arguing that Republicans cannot afford to abandon their own primary when critical MAGA‑vs‑establishment battles are on the ballot. Clay and Buck analyze the likely outcomes: a Paxton‑vs‑Cornyn runoff in May and a Democratic matchup where either Jasmine Crockett or James Talarico could emerge, though Berry predicts Crockett’s base turnout—particularly among Black Democrats—may deliver her a surprise win. They discuss why Crockett would be a disastrous general‑election candidate in deep‑red Texas, while Talarico, though still weak statewide, may fare slightly better. The hour then pivots back to the cascading impact of the U.S.–Iran conflict, noting that markets remain calm, oil prices are only modestly elevated, and equity indexes show virtually no disruption—an unexpected signal given the scale of military action underway. Clay frames this as evidence that global markets trust the Trump administration’s decisive approach. The hosts then play audio from jubilant Iranian‑American crowds celebrating the fall of Iran’s top leadership, as callers express overwhelming gratitude to Trump, describe family‑member reactions inside Iran, and voice hope for a post‑theocracy transition centered on freedom and possibly even a return of the Pahlavi royal family. Callers recount decades of repression, indoctrination, and religious authoritarianism, and describe the attacks as “necessary evil” to break the regime’s grip. Buck offers geopolitical context, explaining that Iran has long been the world’s chief state sponsor of terrorism, backing Hezbollah, Hamas, militias in Iraq and Syria, and destabilization campaigns across the region. He outlines how Iran’s fall could ripple across Lebanon, Yemen, and Syria, reducing the reach of Iranian proxies and limiting China’s access to cheap Iranian oil. The hosts discuss the enormous cultural divide between Iran pre‑1979—educated, Western‑leaning, and socially liberal—and the regime that followed, suggesting that Iran is uniquely positioned for a modern rebirth compared to Afghanistan or Iraq. Hour 2 closes with rapid‑fire topics: the possibility that Iran could be barred from playing in the U.S.‑hosted World Cup, which Clay argues the Trump administration should prevent to signal goodwill to the Iranian people; and a bizarre scheduling twist in which Seattle’s “pro‑gay‑rights” soccer exhibition accidentally matched Egypt vs. Iran, prompting humorous disbelief from the hosts. They finish by previewing further calls from Iranian‑American listeners and foreshadow a deeper breakdown of the Democratic Party’s challenge: how to oppose Trump’s Iran strategy without appearing to defend a fallen regime despised by both American voters and the global Iranian diaspora.

  • Hour 3 - FREEDOM
    Mar 2 2026
    Hour 3 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show continues deep coverage of the unfolding U.S.–Iran war, its political shockwaves, and the enormous reaction across the Iranian diaspora, while also pivoting to critical Texas Senate‑primary developments. Clay and Buck open the hour by noting the astonishing global response to President Trump’s coordinated U.S.–Israel strikes that decapitated Iran’s leadership, pointing out that oil markets and the stock market remain stable—a sign that world markets view the strikes as controlled and effective. They update listeners on a disturbing terror‑inspired mass shooting in Austin, in which the suspect wore pro‑Iran apparel and reportedly kept images of Iranian regime leaders at home, underscoring fears of domestic radicalization as Iran lashes out regionally. The hosts then shift to the extraordinary outpouring of joy from Iranian‑American communities across Los Angeles, Washington, New York, and elsewhere—massive street celebrations praising President Trump for toppling the regime that oppressed millions for nearly five decades. Clay highlights Senator John Fetterman’s surprising break from his party, quoting Fetterman’s blunt criticism of Democrats who oppose the only strategy that can truly prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Buck frames the political divide as another case of “reflexive anti‑Trumpism,” arguing that Democrats oppose Trump’s actions simply because Trump is the one taking them—even when those actions advance human rights, weaken terrorism, and liberate millions. Clay compares the moment to the fall of the Berlin Wall, noting how Venezuela, Cuba, and now Iran are each seeing transformational change as a result of Trump’s foreign‑policy doctrine. Hour 3 features powerful emotional testimony from Iranian‑Americans: one caller describes weeping with gratitude as family members in Iran expressed hope for the first time in decades; another recounts growing up in a system that demanded children chant “Death to Israel” while suppressing dissent. Callers emphasize that Iranians view the strikes not as war, but as a long‑awaited opportunity to reclaim their country from a regime that murdered protestors, tortured dissidents, and crushed women’s rights. Clay reads a poignant message from the Iranian‑American wife of a college football coach, who describes how her parents cried tears of joy because Trump’s actions may finally bring the freedom they were denied. Buck underscores the geopolitical stakes, explaining how Iran—long the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism—funded Hamas, Hezbollah, militias in Syria and Iraq, and terrorist plots throughout the region. Removing the regime could dramatically change the futures of Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Israel, while also weakening Russia and China, who relied on Iran economically and strategically. The hosts also examine the political calculus behind Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel, arguing that Iran backed it to prevent historic Saudi‑Israeli normalization under the expanding Abraham Accords. Now, in an ironic reversal, many Arab states are allowing the U.S. and Israel to use their airspace to strike Iran’s military assets—a sign that the region’s power centers want the Iranian regime gone. Clay says the Middle East may be witnessing a second “modern Berlin Wall moment.” Later in the hour, attention shifts to domestic politics with an in‑depth interview featuring Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, one of the top contenders in Tuesday’s high‑stakes Republican Senate primary. Paxton contrasts his record with Senator John Cornyn’s, arguing that Cornyn has aligned with Democrats on immigration, the border wall, gun restrictions, and opposition to Trump. Paxton insists he is the only candidate who consistently delivers results, calling Cornyn “a swamp creature” who has spent decades out of step with Texas voters. He disputes claims that he can’t win a general election, citing strong polling and a perfect statewide election record. Paxton also discusses the Austin terror attack, warning that the border crisis has created vulnerabilities for sleeper‑cell infiltration and calling for increased federal resources to identify potential threats. The hour wraps with more Iranian‑American callers describing the jubilation in Persian communities worldwide and the fear many Iranian athletes faced under the regime—including national‑team soccer players forced to sing the national anthem under threats to their families. Clay and Buck close Hour 3 by emphasizing how enormous a transformation the world is witnessing and how profoundly Iranian‑American voices underscore the meaning of freedom, the stakes of this conflict, and the political implications ahead of the Texas primary and the 2026 midterms.

  • It's a Numbers Game: The Numbers Behind Cartel Power: Assassinations, Fentanyl Profits, and America’s Border Crisis
    Mar 2 2026

    How powerful are the cartels really—and what do the numbers reveal about their reach, money, and influence?

    On this episode of A Numbers Game, Ryan Girdusky is joined by Border Hawk White House correspondent Wid Lyman for a deep dive into the rapidly evolving cartel landscape following the assassination of a top leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).

    They break down the real numbers behind cartel operations, including:

    The scale of cartel presence across 40+ countries

    How fentanyl transformed cartel profits into a multi-billion-dollar empire

    The shocking rise in violence across 15 Mexican states after the hit

    The hidden role of “legitimate” U.S. businesses in cartel money laundering

    Why cartel leaders with U.S. ties could reshape operations going forward

    How border crackdowns are impacting cartel revenue—and what comes next

    Plus, they explore whether Latin America’s political shift toward tougher crime policies could finally limit cartel power—or simply force cartels to adapt.

    This episode uncovers the data, strategy, and reality behind one of the most dangerous criminal networks in the world—and why it matters for America’s border, economy, and national security.

  • The Tudor Dixon Podcast: Is Raw Milk Safe? UV Pasteurization Explained
    Mar 2 2026

    Is raw milk actually safe—and could new technology change everything we thought we knew?

    On this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor sits down with Bob Comstock, founder and CEO of Tamarack Biotics, to break down the growing debate around raw milk, its health benefits, and the real risks consumers need to understand.

    While raw milk has long been praised for its immune-boosting and allergy-fighting properties, it also carries serious safety concerns due to harmful bacteria. So is there a way to get the benefits without the danger?

    Bob Comstock explains how UV pasteurization—a groundbreaking, FDA-reviewed technology—can eliminate pathogens while preserving the bioactive nutrients that traditional heat pasteurization destroys. The result? A potential future where milk supports stronger immune systems, improved gut health, and even reduced chronic disease risk.

    In this episode, Tudor and Bob discuss:

    • The truth about raw milk: benefits vs. risks

    • How UV pasteurization works (and why it’s different)

    • The connection between dairy, gut health, and chronic disease

    • New research on allergies, immune function, and nutrition

    • What FDA approval means—and how soon this could hit store shelves

    • Why this innovation could reshape food, healthcare, and the dairy industry

    From parents concerned about food safety to anyone interested in nutrition and health policy, this is a fascinating look at how “food as medicine” could become reality.

    👉 Could the milk in your fridge soon be safer and healthier? Tune in to find out.
