Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show begins with updates on Buck and Carrie's baby, noting the anticipation and excitement surrounding the birth. Clay Travis shares humorous anecdotes about Buck's preparations, including the use of a blowup mattress at the hospital.
The hour features a discussion on the stock market, highlighting the positive performance of the Dow and S&P 500, which are up approximately 10% for the week. Clay Travis provides insights into market trends and the importance of timing in stock investments.
The show then shifts to political commentary, with Karoline Leavitt addressing the transparency of President Trump's administration compared to Joe Biden's. Leavitt emphasizes Trump's responsiveness to media questions during cabinet meetings, contrasting it with Biden's limited engagement.
A significant portion of the hour is dedicated to the SAVE Act, a bill passed by the House requiring photo ID for voting. Karoline Leavitt explains the bill's provisions and counters arguments from Democrats who claim it is a form of voter suppression. Clay Travis critiques these claims, highlighting the widespread use of voter ID laws in other democracies and the importance of election integrity.
The hour also includes a lighthearted segment on Trump's fitness, with Karoline Leavitt confirming the president's good health and discussing his workout routine with Bobby Kennedy.
Clay Travis shares his plans for the weekend, including guest hosting Fox & Friends Weekend and attending Broadway plays solo. He discusses the logistics and social dynamics of attending plays alone, seeking input from the show's producers, Ali and Greg.
The hour concludes with a humorous Animal Thunderdome segment, featuring Peter Doocy's encounter with a bird during a live broadcast from the White House. This segment reminds Producer Ali of her days working at Fox News back in the 90's when they had a show called Pet News that featured live animals. Steve Doocy was a host on that show.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back in final hour of the week. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us. I am in solo
as we continue to await official news about baby boy
Sexton Buck and Carrie at the hospital. We got an
(00:20):
update last night that they believed that the birth would
be in the next twelve to eighteen hours and maybe
we're not going to know today while we're live on
the air, and so we will promise to share with
you information on social media accounts. But wanted us all
to know that he had taken his blow up mattress
(00:43):
and that we'll find out how well the blow up
mattress actually ended up working. But that is the latest
update there. Because I'm getting asked a ton anytime I
tweet about anything. Time I tweet about anything, some of
you jump into comments and you're like, what's going on
with the baby? I'm not hold out on you, all right,
I don't want to bother I know it's busy, but
(01:06):
that the most recent update we got last night. I
do not believe. Can we get a check in the studio.
Buck has not been active on social media since last night?
Is that correct? Ally? I don't think that he has
posted anything since last night. He's buckled in with the
air mattress and they are awaiting the birth of baby
(01:26):
boy number one. Appreciate by the way, Larry Kudlow, Rachel
accompos Duffy for hanging out with us in the second
hour of the program, and courage you as always go
download the podcast. Let me tell you We're gonna have
a special podcast this weekend that deals with many of
the things that we have talked about this week, but
also is for people out there might be having new
(01:49):
babies or new grand babies. Advice for Buck that is
going to drop as a podcast exclusive in addition to
all the other parts of the podcast network, So there
is good stuff there. Encourage you to go search out
Klay Travis, encourage you to go such search out Buck Sexton.
Make sure that you were signed up to not miss
a moment. Okay, markets, I know things must be going
(02:12):
well with the markets because there is no market ticker
on CNN right now. It has vanished. Oh wait, just
pop back up. Stock markets are going fairly well. I
say that because we've been making jokes about how we
are essentially stock market reporters this week. Stock market as
we come into the final hour the Dow is up
(02:34):
and the S and P five hundred is up. That
means it is in the green. And I was just
checking during the commercial break if you had bought stocks
this week, if you had bought the dip, you are
up ten percent roughly on the S and P five
hundred this week alone. So again, market timing can be difficult,
(02:55):
but that is the absolute latest there as we come
into the final couple of hours of stock market trading,
relatively calm, stock market up ten percent thereabouts this week.
As I am speaking to you right now, Caroline Levitt
just had a White House press availability and I want
(03:15):
to hit a couple of the comments that she made
there to keep you updated with exactly what is going on.
Yesterday we discussed that there was a live press conference
for the whole cabinet where everybody was out there and
breaking down the absolute latest from all the cabinet secretaries.
(03:35):
They were answering a lot of questions, and today at
the press conference, Caroline Levitt said Trump answered way more
questions at his cabinet availability in one time than Biden
did in his entire four years. This has cut twenty nine.
Caroline Levitt a few moments ago.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Everybody in this room has access to the most transparent
and accessible president in American The cabinet meeting yesterday was
further proof. President Trump asked each secretary to provide an
update to all of you and the media on the
critical work they are doing at their respective agencies to
deliver on his agenda. And according to new reporting from
The Washington Times, who I believe is in this room today.
(04:16):
President Trump answered nearly one hundred questions from the press
all of you during his first three open press cabinet
meetings this year. That's nearly twenty times the number answered
by Joe Biden in cabinet meetings during his entire four
years in office.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Okay, I think that factors in. We haven't talked about
it a lot, but the Associated Press has been suing
arguing that they should be entitled to attend all of
the different cabinet meetings and press availabilities in person. And
that's a pretty staggering answer there. Basically Trump has answered
already in the first three months, essentially less than three months,
(04:55):
because we haven't even gotten there yet. But in the
first three months of his administration, twenty times as many
questions during his cabinet meetings, as Joe Biden did, pretty
transparent for better or worse. And yesterday we didn't talk
about this yet and I wanted to make sure I
hit it in the third hour. In addition to passing
the Budget Reconciliation bill in the House two sixteen to
(05:17):
two fourteen, the House passed a law that's doing something crazy.
It's of course sarcasm, but they're just requiring you to
have an ID in order to vote. Just be able
to prove that you are yourself and require ID. Caroline
Levitt answered a question about that, but I want you
(05:37):
to hear what people are saying about it. This is
cut thirty one. What does the SAVE Act do? Listen
to Caroline Levitt describe it. This passed the House yesterday
with almost exclusive Republican support. And then I want you
to hear what other people are saying about the law
that would only require you to have a photo ID
(05:58):
in order to vote.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Listen to this act, as you mentioned, was passed by
the House yesterday. This is the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act.
I believe I'm getting that correct. And this act is
a common sense measure. It would require proof of citizenship
for voting in our elections. The Democrats have been fear
mongering about this bill, have been saying that married women,
if their name has changed they didn't change it on
(06:19):
their identification, would not be able to vote. That is
a complete fallacy. There are outline in the bill about
how to avoid that. The President very much supports a
common sense solution to ensuring that only citizens can engage
in our elections. This is critical to improving the integrity
of our elections and also the trusts that American citizens
need to have in our electoral process. So the President
supports this bill, and that is a myth that has
(06:41):
been proven wrong by the text of this bill. And
I believe some of the co sponsors of the bill
have been very vocal in addressing that. And certainly I myself,
as a married woman, would not stand before this podium
if the President did not support such a common sense measure.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Okay, so, hey, you have to have a photo I
do to do almost anything in America. You can't, for instance,
pick up tickets at a sporting event without having a
photo ID. You can't get on an airplane by and
large without having a photo ID. Everybody has photo IDs.
Listen to the low expectations of Democrats. Sonny Hostin says,
(07:19):
a lot of black people and women can't figure out
how to get IDs, and this is racist and sexist.
This is from April first of twenty twenty five. Listen
to how low their expectations of American people really are.
Listen to cut one.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
It's sort of a vestige of I think, post slavery
laws where they where black people had to prove their
right to vote, and oftentimes they couldn't vote because they
couldn't pass some crazy tests or they didn't have the
appropriate ID. It also affects women, women that are married.
Maybe one your passport reflects something that's different on your
(07:59):
versertificate or on your driver's license. So really the bottom
line is voter suppression. And I agree with him one
hundred percent. It's a brilliant notion that less voter ID
laws allows more people to vote, and most democracies do
it that way. We're the only ones that really don't
do it that way.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
This is crazy talk. I mean, this is bonkers. They've
said for some time that it's racist because people can't
figure out how to get IDs, but to say that
this is like a vestige of post slavery. Is just
bonkers in the extreme. But this is what they are arguing.
(08:41):
I think it's important for you to understand it. This
is a congresswoman from Georgia. It's a poll tax, she says,
this is cut too.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
And Georgia over half of the population doesn't have a passport,
and our driver's licenses, even the real ID doesn't prove citizenship.
This bill could force Georgians to pay more than seven
hundred million dollars just to register to vote. Y'all, that's
the pull text, plain and simple, and it's blatant voter suppression.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I mean, this is crazy town. The arguments are absolutely insane.
We got a lot of Georgians listening. Master's going on
right now. We have record turnout in Georgia. Do you
remember when Joe Biden traveled down to Georgia and said
the new Georgia voter ID laws and the new voter
requirements in Georgia was not just Jim Crow, it was
(09:28):
Jim Eagle. Do you remember that more people have voted
in Georgia since they strengthened the voting requirements in Georgia
than we're voting before. It's actually far more secure in
Georgia than it had been in the past. But this
argument is they all read the same talking points and
they all roll out with it. Here is a is
(09:52):
this Senator Paedia, I think this is a state senator
in California. Requiring proof of citizenship to vote is voter suppression.
This is what they're arguing. Cut three.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
This is a solution in search of a problem. This
is a classic example the save act of what Republicans
are doing is once again demonizing immigrants for the sake
of making it harder for eligible citizens to minister, to
vote and to cast their bouts in elections. It's voter
suppression in disguise, not so much of a disguise. And
(10:24):
here's the truth. It is already illegal for non citizens
to vote in our elections.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Okay, yeah, it is already illegal. By the way, that's
Alex Padilla, who is the Democrat senator from California. We
had a typo in here. He's a relatively recent i
think senator addition to California, one of the senators that
was referred to not by name at President Trump's Monday
La Dodger celebration. If you remember when he said there's
(10:51):
a couple of California senators here, but I'm not going
to reference them by name because I don't particularly like them.
One of them, of course, now Adam Schiff, who got
a promotion despite being wrong on everything related to COVID.
This is Senator Padilla, who is now there. And again
the argument that somehow it is racist, or it is sexist,
(11:13):
or it is anti American to require in any way
a proof of ID in order to vote, I just don't.
I don't think any of you out there. I'll open
up the phone lines. Some of them are exed out
on exit. Is there anybody who wanted to vote that
had an inability to get an ID in order to
vote in the history of your lives? Open for them,
(11:34):
the biggest radio show in the country. Has this ever
happened to any of you, that you have been unable
to vote because it's impossible for you to get an
ID or some form of proof of citizenship. I'm not
sure that anybody's ever had to happen. Eight hundred two
eight eight two. You can weigh in when we come back.
We'll have a little bit more fun as we roll
(11:55):
through the Friday edition of the program and I want
to make sure this is important. Want you guys to
listen here closely. If you own weapons, when can you
use those weapons legally? How do you know what is
appropriate and inappropriate? For sure, you can get right now
a Concealed Carry and Family Defense guide from our friends
(12:18):
at the USCCA. I'm gonna tell you how to get
this guide, but for a moment, I want you to
listen to me. If per chance you have a weapon
and you discharge that weapon and somebody decides, maybe you're
in a city where they don't particularly like the use
of weapons, maybe they don't want to buy into your
(12:39):
use of self defense. Someone sits around and decides that
they're gonna judge you, and maybe you end up being prosecuted.
You know what it costs to actually hire a really
good lawyer to defend you. Hundreds of dollars an hour,
maybe even one thousand dollars an hour or more. I've
done criminal defense work. This can be crippling, even if
(13:01):
you didn't do anything wrong, just to have a lawyer
defend you through the process of an investigation, it can
add up two thousands, tens of thousands. Listen, even hundreds
of thousands of dollars if you discharge your weapon and
you are charged with a crime. How about if you
go to USCCA dot com you can join nine hundred
(13:25):
thousand Americans who already belong to the United States Concealed
Carry Association. If you're ever in a situation where you
need to defend yourself with a firearm and hope it
never happens. If you do, you get legal defense as
a part of your membership. It's included. This can end
a lot of stress. It can guarantee you that you
(13:45):
have a good lawyer. They know exactly who to retain
in so many different jurisdictions. Often it's not just about
what you did, how it's interpreted. Who is defending you
this legal support in the event hopefully you never need it,
but just in case you did, it's an incredible option
to have there. Why don't you go check it out again.
(14:06):
You can get the Concealed Carry Family Defense Guide walk
you through what to do before, during, and after any
self defense incident. I know as a lawyer how complicated
these cases can be, how difficult to reconcile they can
be as well. Go online to USCCA dot com slash
clay to get your free guide today. That's USCCA dot
(14:28):
com slash clay for your free guide today. One more time,
USCCA dot com slash clay for your free guide today,

never need it, but boy oh boyd does that security
blanket matter USCCA dot com slash Clay. Sometimes all you
(14:50):
can do is laugh.
Speaker 6 (14:52):
And they do a lot of it with the Sunday
hang Join Clay and Buck as they laugh it up
in the Clay and Buck podcast feed on the I
Heart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Welcome back in Clay, Travis Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us as we are rolling
through the Friday edition of the program, a little bit
of fun. Trump is getting his check up today, as
is required of so many different individuals out there who
have been president in the past, and Caroline Levitt got
(15:24):
a question about how Trump's getting in such good physical shape.
Listen to this.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
Well, you guys also consider releasing the President's fitness plan.
He actually looks healthier than ever before, the healthier than
he did eight years ago. And I'm sure everybody in
this room he could agree. Is he working out with
Bobby Kennedy and is he eating less McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I can confirm the president is in very good shape.
As you see on a near daily basis.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Here Trump is getting trim. Seventy eight years old, looks
like he's he's slimming down. By the way, This is
from Fox Business. Countries that require voter ID, I just
thought this really kind of put a button on the
ridiculousness of arguing that it's racist, sexist, anti anti American
(16:09):
to require voter ID. Listen to this, Iceland, Sweden, New Zealand, Denmark, Canada, Ireland, Switzerland, Finland, Australia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Malta,
the UK, Spain. I'm probably gonna screw some of these
pronunciations up. Mauritanius. I don't even know what that country is, Uruguay, Japan, Italy, France,
(16:34):
South Korea, Costa Rica, Botswana, Portugal, Estonia, Israel, the Czech Republic, India, Taiwan, Chile.
There you go, really good at that one. Belgium, Cyprus, Slovenia, Lithuania,
South Africa, Jamaica, Latvia, Slovakia, Greece, Panama, Bulgaria, Indonesia, Argentina, Poland, Brazil, Ghana, Croatia, Hungary, Colombia, Peru,
(17:00):
El Salvador, Romania, Serbia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Georgia. The country,
not the state. I don't think there's as good as
at American football. Honduras, Ecuador, Bangladesh, Ukraine, Bolivia, Turkey, Kenya, Thailand, Lebanon, Lebanon, Lebanon,
Tennessee Thailand. By the way, every time I say Thailand
(17:22):
and don't say Thigland, it's a real wind. I'm gonna
be honest with you, because every time I see that
country's name, I say, don't say Thaighland, don't say Thailand.
Venezuel La, Nicaragua, Palestine, Pakistan, Iraq, and Haiti all require
voter ID to vote. So if it's super racist, sexist
and completely anti American, I would say a lot of
(17:44):
those other countries must be truly awful. Of course not,
it makes a lot of sense to require all of that.
We'll have some fun here last half hour as everybody
is rolling in. I know, golf fans watching the weekend

Welcome back in Clay, Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us as we are rolling
in into the weekend. We've been having a fabulous time.
Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We got
a loaded week coming next week, and at some point
(19:11):
Buck is going to be back to talk about what
it's like to be a dad. But in the meantime,
I will be rolling with all of you. It's been
a kind of calamitous week. Frankly, when you think about
all the different movement with the stock market, it's actually
ended up in a positive way for those of you
who were calm enough to just kind of ride out
the insanity. And I have now got a dilemma and
(19:34):
I'm going to bring in the crew here. So am
I mentioned this earlier. I am guest hosting the Fox
and Friends Weekend the Weather. So for those of you
out there that are like hey, Clay, I've listened to
you for fifteen hours already this week. But you know,
there's nothing better than my master's weekend starting off at
(19:55):
six am with you, bright and early, assuming my alarm
goes off, because I have to be in the Fox
studios at four forty five am Saturday and Sunday four
to so my weekend I am going to be in bed.
I'm not gonna be able to sleep because who can
go to bed early. And look, I know some of
you get up very very early, And for those of
(20:15):
you who don't know, I used to have to get
up around four forty every day for five years because
I did early morning sports talk radio late night because
the game's in late So I was always tired. And
I know a lot of you are in that position
where you're getting up super early. I haven't done it
in about five years or four years since we started
doing this show. I haven't been up that early. So
(20:36):
object one Responsibility one is wake up and get there.
Responsibility two is be entertaining for four hours super early
in the morning. I'm gonna be on with Rachel Compost
Duffy and with Charlie Hurt. Should be a lot of
fun and I can't wait for it. But the weather
is brutal here this weekend in New York City. So
(20:58):
I was looking people say, oh, okay, what do you
do in New York City. I'm up here by myself.
I don't have my kids with me. Wife is traveling
with our youngest. He's got a soccer tournament in Gatlinburg, Tennessee,
so the whole family is not here with me. So
I was thinking like, what should I do? How should
I entertain myself? Other than the fact that I have
to be up at four forty five in the morning.
(21:20):
I don't want to be going to dinner, you know,
in the late evenings. I certainly don't want to be
having drinks late and be mega hungover or something. So
I was like, what is a super easy going thing
that I could do that's somewhat unique to New York City?
And I told my wife last night what I was
going to do, and she made fun of me because
(21:41):
yesterday we were talking about Barack Obama going out to
dinner by himself, and my argument was, you can't go
out to dinner by yourself in your hometown if you're
married with kids and you got friends and everything else.
But I am going to go These are not musicals.
Before all of you deluge me about my anti musical position,
I'm correct, musicals are awful. But I have booked tickets
(22:05):
to go watch two different non musical Broadway plays all
by myself. I have a solo seat for two different
Broadway plays. I'm staying basically for those of you know
where the Fox studios are, basically right in Times Square.
So I can walk like a couple one hundred feet.
I'm going to a matinee on Saturday. I'm going to
(22:27):
see a fellow with Denzel Washington, which is gonna be great.
And I am going to tonight. I'm gonna go see
this George Clooney. Good night and good luck show. All right, Now,
I understand you can criticize me for like, I think
Denzel Washington is probably the best actor of his generation,
(22:49):
and so I'm excited to go see him in a play.
I've seen him once before in a play. My wife,
when we were up here, went and watched. I think
that's gonna be pretty cool. The George Clooney thing, I
think from a perspective, I'm actually intrigued to watch it
and then come on and tell you what the reaction
is to it and what I thought of the fairness
(23:10):
on the scale of Rachel Maddow as a crazy loon
to hey, normal people would watch this. So I am
doing this, But I had to grapple with the decision
is it okay to go solo? My analysis, I'm gonna
bring in the crew here because I want to hear
their takes. My analysis was it's way weirder First of all,
if I take a girl woman, that is like really weird, right,
(23:34):
even if it's a friend. It's like a Broadway play
that seems super romantic to go with another person, right.
It also seems kind of weird to go with a
dude to a play. I think just you me and
like a friend, like, what did you do on Friday? Well,
we went to a play together. I don't know. So
I actually think that I have made the right decision
(23:55):
to go completely solo. Let's start with you, producer Ali, Right,
my wife was making fun of me, but then I
think now that she's gonna listen to it. It's actually
what it would be if I went with like a
like you. If I took you, it'd be like, oh,
here's Clay Travis and some random girl. If you happen
to know me, going to a play with him kind
(24:15):
of feels like something that only dates would do. Am
I crazy?
Speaker 8 (24:18):
You're a hey, I think you're way overthinking this.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
This is why I'm going.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
So as a New Yorker, I've gone to plays alone.
I've gone to plays with friends, guys, girls. I think
it's I personally think it's okay. But the burning question
I have is where are your seats? Are you near
the wind section of the orchestra.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
I'm gonna take my flute. I'm gonna be performing during
the intermission at both events. I'm sure Denzel is gonna
be excited to pull me up on stage. So your
position as a New Yorker is that going to a
play by yourself is not an abnormal thing.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
To do, not at all. And dinner too. I've gone
to dinner alone in my neighborhood. We New Yorkers do
a lot of things on our own.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Okay, this is interesting because I'm now The weather's awful.
By the way, it's gonna be like four in rainy,
so there's not a lot of outdoor activities you could
take advantage of. All right, what do you think, greg
good decision, bad decision? How would you assess going.
Speaker 9 (25:08):
By yourself is actually not a bad decision? Being on
the aisle is an excellent decision. But I think if
you're going to a musical would be a little bit different.
Have you ever gone to a movie with a buddy?
Speaker 8 (25:18):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:19):
Yeah, it's going to see a play like this is
I would relate it to that. I'd make it so
if you went with a guy. Not a big deal
if you went with Ali.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
So I am going to be Mike Pence. Yeah, that's true.
I haven't made a rule for people who don't know. Sorry,
poor Mike Pence just getting blasted by Ali. Here. What
was Mike Pence's position? He could never be in a
room solo with another woman.
Speaker 8 (25:43):
Or to dinner.
Speaker 9 (25:45):
Bill Belichick though.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Well, yes, Bill Belichick's By the way, his twenty four
year old girlfriend is did you I see this? She's
going to be attempting to be Miss Maine. She has entered.
I don't know if it's Miss USA or Miss America.
I'm not I can never remember the difference between the two,
but she is attempting to be the representative of Maine. Okay,
(26:08):
we actually got into a discussion about that last night.
I still I understand what Bill Belichick. For those of
you who don't know, Bill Belichick is seventy two years old,
legendary New England Patriots, six time Super Bowl winning coach.
He has a twenty four year old girlfriend. I understand
what Bill Belichick is getting from the relationship. I can
kind of work through what he might be thinking. I
(26:29):
really don't know what this girl is thinking, and I
mean what she's getting. She's thinking, Miss Maine. She thinks
she's gonna be it. So here's the thing. As awkward
as it is for Belichick to have a twenty four
year old girlfriend, I am so glad that I've got
three boys, because if I had a daughter and she
brought home a boyfriend older than me, I think I
(26:50):
would murder him with my bare hand. Can you imagine,
like what that conversation would be like, having your daughter
that you raised dating a guy older than you As
a dad, I can't imagine there's any dad listening to
us right now that could handle that well. I think
I would. I think I would murder Belichick with my
bare hands if I were that guy.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
Yeah at that point too.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
I mean, I mean I get that she makes the choice.
So on the scale of morality, Belichick dating twenty four
year old way worse than me going solo to a
George Clooney play.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
I don't even think it's on the charts.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
You're okay, I could have taken a twenty four year
old to the George Cloney play, and then I'd have
a lot of questions that I need to answer. So
that's what's going on? What about the what about the
guest hosting of Fox and Friends? Do you guys watch
Fox and Friends on the weekend? I think it is
the most popular show basically on television on the weekend.
Now the masters are going on. I know a lot
of people are going to be waking up in the
(27:44):
morning putting this on. Do you have any advice for
me as the guest host of Fox and Friends? You
ali back in the day were a producer on an
animal show, Pet News Pet which is.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
Unbelievable nineteen ninety six.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
This is one of the earliest shows that News had on.
Speaker 8 (28:00):
Fox News before they were twenty four to seven News.
They had all different kinds of programming and Pet News
was their leading Saturday morning show two hours Live Now
think about that live with animals on set. There were
lots of accidents.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
The Pet News. What is the concept of pet News?
Is it like jack Hanna thing like you have? Like, like,
what are the what are the segments? Like?
Speaker 8 (28:21):
The segments were everything breed of the Week, how to
handle cats that scratch up your house? It was everything.
We did have Jack Hannah type segments. We had alpacas
in the studio, we had cats, dogs.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
And people love this. Animals on the morning show.
Speaker 8 (28:38):
They loved it. But I will say the show right
after pet News was called Fox on Health and it
was a bit more serious. And one day we had birds.
We had birds on our pet news show and the
birds got loose, they got up in the lights. We
couldn't get them down before the next show started. And
our host of that show had a bigger hair, big
like a big poof yeah, and the birdland it on
(29:00):
her head during her very serious segment. Never forget it.
Speaker 9 (29:03):
That's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Yes, I mean, I've done a lot of studio shows before,
and it's not like I have a I would say,
a very exalted view of myself. I mean I've had
hot sauce poured on me. You can google it. I've
done push up contests. I did a show once in
a lobster outfit, dressed up for how I've done a
lot of Halloween shows. I once did a segment in
a wedding dress after losing a bet. So I don't
(29:27):
think they're going to ask me to do anything where
I'm like, hey, I have too much journalistic integrity to
do this. They were actually, you guys heard some of
the pre pre LIMB calls, and they were like, hey,
you know, there's a couple of segments. We just want
to make sure you're okay, Like you might have to
do something, you know, associated with sports, like we may
have a basketball room. I'm like, come on, you, who
do you I'm not Walter Cronkite here. I think that
(29:49):
you know the.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
You're gonna have fun.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
It's gonna be a lot of The one thing, I
haven't had a suit on in a long time, and
they require full suits and ties, so I'm a little
bit nervous about just having to not screw up wearing
a suit.
Speaker 9 (30:01):
We'll grock that so we know exactly what it looks
like ahead of time because we haven't seen that in
a long time.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah, I think that could be a bit of a disaster.
But my biggest concern is just making sure that I'm awake.
So I'm gonna set like six alarms. And I asked
if they've ever had to come, like you know when
you have the teen the like teenagers on the road
and they have their curfews and everything else. Like I
was talking to them, I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna go
to a play and They're like, are you going to
(30:26):
be out?
Speaker 8 (30:27):
Oh yeah, because some players can go till past eleven pm.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Well, they were nervous already, and I was like, have
you ever had to show up at the hotel and
by I'm in a hotel near the television studio and
go get talent?
Speaker 8 (30:37):
Because you have I've had to do that.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
They weren't ready and they were reclassed, and you went
to the hotel and like banged on the door and
you're like, hey.
Speaker 8 (30:46):
Back in the early days of pet.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
News for pet News, Oh man, I think that would
be a bad That would be a poor way to
get started. So anyway, that's gonna be fun this weekend.
You mentioned pet News, we come back. We're gonna have
a fun conclusion for everybody out there. We have got
the Peter Noosey. It's a little bit of an animal
thunderdome bit. Peter Doosey, who obviously covers the White House
(31:08):
well for Fox News, was doing a hit this morning
on Fox and Friends. And what is a perfect segue,
And we're going to have some fun rolling you into
the weekend with what happened to him. We'll do that
in a bit. But remindered everybody out there. If you
want eight more hours of me for the first time ever,
you will have eight more hours of me on Saturday Sunday.
By the way, I've done a lot of Saturday college
(31:28):
football stuff and I've been on Fox and Friends Morning,
but never eight more hours. So we will see how
that goes. And it should be a lot of fun.
And I want to tell you, hey, a lot of you,
I know a spring is getting here. Maybe you're celebrating
the Masters going on, and you're celebrating by getting ready

I did OutKick the coverage which a lot of you
(33:17):
listened to, the morning radio show led into Dan Patrick
Colin Cowherd on Fox Sports Radio Networks nationwide. I did
that for five years preparation for getting up super early
in the morning. We were live at six am, six
to nine. We did a fun thing called the Animal Thunderdome.
Sometimes animals decide to attack humans, and that happened to
(33:38):
our good friend Peter Doocey outside of the White House
this morning on Fox and Friends. If you missed it,
it's a very funny video. We'll have it posted at
clayanbuck dot com. Peterdocy screams as a bird decides to
land on his head during a live hit from the
White House. Listen, Peter, I appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (33:57):
My head.
Speaker 7 (34:02):
That I did not like that at all.
Speaker 5 (34:05):
The back of your head.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
Your hair is standing up now, I mean you got
the hair though?
Speaker 1 (34:09):
What was going on?
Speaker 5 (34:11):
It's probably so dirty?
Speaker 9 (34:15):
Did he say dirty?
Speaker 6 (34:18):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (34:19):
President Trump, if you're watching upstairs, we gotta do something
about these birds, all right? So Doucey begging for Trump
to save him from birds. Allie, you ever have a
bird land on your head when you were producing Fox Sports,
the Fox Pet Show on Fox News.
Speaker 8 (34:35):
Well, I have to say, Peter Doocey. Steve Doocey was
one of our hosts of Pet News, and I remember
in the nineties, way back in the nineties, and I
remember when he brought Little Peter in, so it's sort
of a full circle moment. We have all kinds of
videos with him doing packages for the show. He was
actually really good and when he was a kid, no, no,
(34:57):
Steve was really good with the animals.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
He's really good on television, So it doesn't surprise remember
at the time, so running around and now he's the
probably the best White House correspondent.
Speaker 8 (35:07):
Can't be a New Yorker without getting what I call pigeoned.
Everyone gets pigeoned eventually.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Meaning that a pigeon just flies into you. Well, I
think he got lucky that he didn't get pooped on.
Its supposed to be good luck, although it doesn't seem
like it would be very good luck. If you get
pooped on, right, that is awesome. Hey, I appreciate all
of you. You guys have been fantastic. We'll see how
I do going uh into the weekend. Also solo with
the with the show in general, be back next week.
(35:34):
We'll see when Buck gets back. Buck Dad Uh. It
should be a lot of fun. Look forward to all
of that. Best to Buck and Carrie and all of
you out there that might be getting ready for your
own kids, your own grandkids. We back on Monday. I
cannot wait to hang out with you guys then, and
in the meantime kicking back watching The Masters starting at
six am. Well you can spend Fox and Friends mornings
(35:57):
weekends with me as well. But until then, thank you guys,
and good night and good luck. We'll see how the
play goes and whether George Clooney is anyway fair or not.
I'll give you my review on Monday. We'll see how
solo play going. But just remember, whatever you do, grab
your flutes. Have some fun.
Welcome back in final hour of the week. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us. I am in solo
as we continue to await official news about baby boy
Sexton Buck and Carrie at the hospital. We got an
(00:20):
update last night that they believed that the birth would
be in the next twelve to eighteen hours and maybe
we're not going to know today while we're live on
the air, and so we will promise to share with
you information on social media accounts. But wanted us all
to know that he had taken his blow up mattress
(00:43):
and that we'll find out how well the blow up
mattress actually ended up working. But that is the latest
update there. Because I'm getting asked a ton anytime I
tweet about anything. Time I tweet about anything, some of
you jump into comments and you're like, what's going on
with the baby? I'm not hold out on you, all right,
I don't want to bother I know it's busy, but
(01:06):
that the most recent update we got last night. I
do not believe. Can we get a check in the studio.
Buck has not been active on social media since last night?
Is that correct? Ally? I don't think that he has
posted anything since last night. He's buckled in with the
air mattress and they are awaiting the birth of baby
(01:26):
boy number one. Appreciate by the way, Larry Kudlow, Rachel
accompos Duffy for hanging out with us in the second
hour of the program, and courage you as always go
download the podcast. Let me tell you We're gonna have
a special podcast this weekend that deals with many of
the things that we have talked about this week, but
also is for people out there might be having new
(01:49):
babies or new grand babies. Advice for Buck that is
going to drop as a podcast exclusive in addition to
all the other parts of the podcast network, So there
is good stuff there. Encourage you to go search out
Klay Travis, encourage you to go such search out Buck Sexton.
Make sure that you were signed up to not miss
a moment. Okay, markets, I know things must be going
(02:12):
well with the markets because there is no market ticker
on CNN right now. It has vanished. Oh wait, just
pop back up. Stock markets are going fairly well. I
say that because we've been making jokes about how we
are essentially stock market reporters this week. Stock market as
we come into the final hour the Dow is up
(02:34):
and the S and P five hundred is up. That
means it is in the green. And I was just
checking during the commercial break if you had bought stocks
this week, if you had bought the dip, you are
up ten percent roughly on the S and P five
hundred this week alone. So again, market timing can be difficult,
(02:55):
but that is the absolute latest there as we come
into the final couple of hours of stock market trading,
relatively calm, stock market up ten percent thereabouts this week.
As I am speaking to you right now, Caroline Levitt
just had a White House press availability and I want
(03:15):
to hit a couple of the comments that she made
there to keep you updated with exactly what is going on.
Yesterday we discussed that there was a live press conference
for the whole cabinet where everybody was out there and
breaking down the absolute latest from all the cabinet secretaries.
(03:35):
They were answering a lot of questions, and today at
the press conference, Caroline Levitt said Trump answered way more
questions at his cabinet availability in one time than Biden
did in his entire four years. This has cut twenty nine.
Caroline Levitt a few moments ago.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Everybody in this room has access to the most transparent
and accessible president in American The cabinet meeting yesterday was
further proof. President Trump asked each secretary to provide an
update to all of you and the media on the
critical work they are doing at their respective agencies to
deliver on his agenda. And according to new reporting from
The Washington Times, who I believe is in this room today.
(04:16):
President Trump answered nearly one hundred questions from the press
all of you during his first three open press cabinet
meetings this year. That's nearly twenty times the number answered
by Joe Biden in cabinet meetings during his entire four
years in office.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Okay, I think that factors in. We haven't talked about
it a lot, but the Associated Press has been suing
arguing that they should be entitled to attend all of
the different cabinet meetings and press availabilities in person. And
that's a pretty staggering answer there. Basically Trump has answered
already in the first three months, essentially less than three months,
(04:55):
because we haven't even gotten there yet. But in the
first three months of his administration, twenty times as many
questions during his cabinet meetings, as Joe Biden did, pretty
transparent for better or worse. And yesterday we didn't talk
about this yet and I wanted to make sure I
hit it in the third hour. In addition to passing
the Budget Reconciliation bill in the House two sixteen to
(05:17):
two fourteen, the House passed a law that's doing something crazy.
It's of course sarcasm, but they're just requiring you to
have an ID in order to vote. Just be able
to prove that you are yourself and require ID. Caroline
Levitt answered a question about that, but I want you
(05:37):
to hear what people are saying about it. This is
cut thirty one. What does the SAVE Act do? Listen
to Caroline Levitt describe it. This passed the House yesterday
with almost exclusive Republican support. And then I want you
to hear what other people are saying about the law
that would only require you to have a photo ID
(05:58):
in order to vote.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Listen to this act, as you mentioned, was passed by
the House yesterday. This is the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act.
I believe I'm getting that correct. And this act is
a common sense measure. It would require proof of citizenship
for voting in our elections. The Democrats have been fear
mongering about this bill, have been saying that married women,
if their name has changed they didn't change it on
(06:19):
their identification, would not be able to vote. That is
a complete fallacy. There are outline in the bill about
how to avoid that. The President very much supports a
common sense solution to ensuring that only citizens can engage
in our elections. This is critical to improving the integrity
of our elections and also the trusts that American citizens
need to have in our electoral process. So the President
supports this bill, and that is a myth that has
(06:41):
been proven wrong by the text of this bill. And
I believe some of the co sponsors of the bill
have been very vocal in addressing that. And certainly I myself,
as a married woman, would not stand before this podium
if the President did not support such a common sense measure.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Okay, so, hey, you have to have a photo I
do to do almost anything in America. You can't, for instance,
pick up tickets at a sporting event without having a
photo ID. You can't get on an airplane by and
large without having a photo ID. Everybody has photo IDs.
Listen to the low expectations of Democrats. Sonny Hostin says,
(07:19):
a lot of black people and women can't figure out
how to get IDs, and this is racist and sexist.
This is from April first of twenty twenty five. Listen
to how low their expectations of American people really are.
Listen to cut one.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
It's sort of a vestige of I think, post slavery
laws where they where black people had to prove their
right to vote, and oftentimes they couldn't vote because they
couldn't pass some crazy tests or they didn't have the
appropriate ID. It also affects women, women that are married.
Maybe one your passport reflects something that's different on your
(07:59):
versertificate or on your driver's license. So really the bottom
line is voter suppression. And I agree with him one
hundred percent. It's a brilliant notion that less voter ID
laws allows more people to vote, and most democracies do
it that way. We're the only ones that really don't
do it that way.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
This is crazy talk. I mean, this is bonkers. They've
said for some time that it's racist because people can't
figure out how to get IDs, but to say that
this is like a vestige of post slavery. Is just
bonkers in the extreme. But this is what they are arguing.
(08:41):
I think it's important for you to understand it. This
is a congresswoman from Georgia. It's a poll tax, she says,
this is cut too.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
And Georgia over half of the population doesn't have a passport,
and our driver's licenses, even the real ID doesn't prove citizenship.
This bill could force Georgians to pay more than seven
hundred million dollars just to register to vote. Y'all, that's
the pull text, plain and simple, and it's blatant voter suppression.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
I mean, this is crazy town. The arguments are absolutely insane.
We got a lot of Georgians listening. Master's going on
right now. We have record turnout in Georgia. Do you
remember when Joe Biden traveled down to Georgia and said
the new Georgia voter ID laws and the new voter
requirements in Georgia was not just Jim Crow, it was
(09:28):
Jim Eagle. Do you remember that more people have voted
in Georgia since they strengthened the voting requirements in Georgia
than we're voting before. It's actually far more secure in
Georgia than it had been in the past. But this
argument is they all read the same talking points and
they all roll out with it. Here is a is
(09:52):
this Senator Paedia, I think this is a state senator
in California. Requiring proof of citizenship to vote is voter suppression.
This is what they're arguing. Cut three.
Speaker 5 (10:04):
This is a solution in search of a problem. This
is a classic example the save act of what Republicans
are doing is once again demonizing immigrants for the sake
of making it harder for eligible citizens to minister, to
vote and to cast their bouts in elections. It's voter
suppression in disguise, not so much of a disguise. And
(10:24):
here's the truth. It is already illegal for non citizens
to vote in our elections.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Okay, yeah, it is already illegal. By the way, that's
Alex Padilla, who is the Democrat senator from California. We
had a typo in here. He's a relatively recent i
think senator addition to California, one of the senators that
was referred to not by name at President Trump's Monday
La Dodger celebration. If you remember when he said there's
(10:51):
a couple of California senators here, but I'm not going
to reference them by name because I don't particularly like them.
One of them, of course, now Adam Schiff, who got
a promotion despite being wrong on everything related to COVID.
This is Senator Padilla, who is now there. And again
the argument that somehow it is racist, or it is sexist,
(11:13):
or it is anti American to require in any way
a proof of ID in order to vote, I just don't.
I don't think any of you out there. I'll open
up the phone lines. Some of them are exed out
on exit. Is there anybody who wanted to vote that
had an inability to get an ID in order to
vote in the history of your lives? Open for them,
(11:34):
the biggest radio show in the country. Has this ever
happened to any of you, that you have been unable
to vote because it's impossible for you to get an
ID or some form of proof of citizenship. I'm not
sure that anybody's ever had to happen. Eight hundred two
eight eight two. You can weigh in when we come back.
We'll have a little bit more fun as we roll
(11:55):
through the Friday edition of the program and I want
to make sure this is important. Want you guys to
listen here closely. If you own weapons, when can you
use those weapons legally? How do you know what is
appropriate and inappropriate? For sure, you can get right now
a Concealed Carry and Family Defense guide from our friends
(12:18):
at the USCCA. I'm gonna tell you how to get
this guide, but for a moment, I want you to
listen to me. If per chance you have a weapon
and you discharge that weapon and somebody decides, maybe you're
in a city where they don't particularly like the use
of weapons, maybe they don't want to buy into your
(12:39):
use of self defense. Someone sits around and decides that
they're gonna judge you, and maybe you end up being prosecuted.
You know what it costs to actually hire a really
good lawyer to defend you. Hundreds of dollars an hour,
maybe even one thousand dollars an hour or more. I've
done criminal defense work. This can be crippling, even if
(13:01):
you didn't do anything wrong, just to have a lawyer
defend you through the process of an investigation, it can
add up two thousands, tens of thousands. Listen, even hundreds
of thousands of dollars if you discharge your weapon and
you are charged with a crime. How about if you
go to USCCA dot com you can join nine hundred
(13:25):
thousand Americans who already belong to the United States Concealed
Carry Association. If you're ever in a situation where you
need to defend yourself with a firearm and hope it
never happens. If you do, you get legal defense as
a part of your membership. It's included. This can end
a lot of stress. It can guarantee you that you
(13:45):
have a good lawyer. They know exactly who to retain
in so many different jurisdictions. Often it's not just about
what you did, how it's interpreted. Who is defending you
this legal support in the event hopefully you never need it,
but just in case you did, it's an incredible option
to have there. Why don't you go check it out again.
(14:06):
You can get the Concealed Carry Family Defense Guide walk
you through what to do before, during, and after any
self defense incident. I know as a lawyer how complicated
these cases can be, how difficult to reconcile they can
be as well. Go online to USCCA dot com slash
clay to get your free guide today. That's USCCA dot
(14:28):
com slash clay for your free guide today. One more time,
USCCA dot com slash clay for your free guide today,
and get signed up for that legal defense. Hopefully you
never need it, but boy oh boyd does that security
blanket matter USCCA dot com slash Clay. Sometimes all you
(14:50):
can do is laugh.
Speaker 6 (14:52):
And they do a lot of it with the Sunday
hang Join Clay and Buck as they laugh it up
in the Clay and Buck podcast feed on the I
Heart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Welcome back in Clay, Travis Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us as we are rolling
through the Friday edition of the program, a little bit
of fun. Trump is getting his check up today, as
is required of so many different individuals out there who
have been president in the past, and Caroline Levitt got
(15:24):
a question about how Trump's getting in such good physical shape.
Listen to this.
Speaker 7 (15:29):
Well, you guys also consider releasing the President's fitness plan.
He actually looks healthier than ever before, the healthier than
he did eight years ago. And I'm sure everybody in
this room he could agree. Is he working out with
Bobby Kennedy and is he eating less McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I can confirm the president is in very good shape.
As you see on a near daily basis.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Here Trump is getting trim. Seventy eight years old, looks
like he's he's slimming down. By the way, This is
from Fox Business. Countries that require voter ID, I just
thought this really kind of put a button on the
ridiculousness of arguing that it's racist, sexist, anti anti American
(16:09):
to require voter ID. Listen to this, Iceland, Sweden, New Zealand, Denmark, Canada, Ireland, Switzerland, Finland, Australia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Malta,
the UK, Spain. I'm probably gonna screw some of these
pronunciations up. Mauritanius. I don't even know what that country is, Uruguay, Japan, Italy, France,
(16:34):
South Korea, Costa Rica, Botswana, Portugal, Estonia, Israel, the Czech Republic, India, Taiwan, Chile.
There you go, really good at that one. Belgium, Cyprus, Slovenia, Lithuania,
South Africa, Jamaica, Latvia, Slovakia, Greece, Panama, Bulgaria, Indonesia, Argentina, Poland, Brazil, Ghana, Croatia, Hungary, Colombia, Peru,
(17:00):
El Salvador, Romania, Serbia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Georgia. The country,
not the state. I don't think there's as good as
at American football. Honduras, Ecuador, Bangladesh, Ukraine, Bolivia, Turkey, Kenya, Thailand, Lebanon, Lebanon, Lebanon,
Tennessee Thailand. By the way, every time I say Thailand
(17:22):
and don't say Thigland, it's a real wind. I'm gonna
be honest with you, because every time I see that
country's name, I say, don't say Thaighland, don't say Thailand.
Venezuel La, Nicaragua, Palestine, Pakistan, Iraq, and Haiti all require
voter ID to vote. So if it's super racist, sexist
and completely anti American, I would say a lot of
(17:44):
those other countries must be truly awful. Of course not,
it makes a lot of sense to require all of that.
We'll have some fun here last half hour as everybody
is rolling in. I know, golf fans watching the weekend
on TV Masters, make sure you've downloaded the Prize Picks app.
You can play along as the Masters is underway right now.
I'm gonna be watching over ten million members billions of
(18:06):

Welcome back in Clay, Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us as we are rolling
in into the weekend. We've been having a fabulous time.
Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We got
a loaded week coming next week, and at some point
(19:11):
Buck is going to be back to talk about what
it's like to be a dad. But in the meantime,
I will be rolling with all of you. It's been
a kind of calamitous week. Frankly, when you think about
all the different movement with the stock market, it's actually
ended up in a positive way for those of you
who were calm enough to just kind of ride out
the insanity. And I have now got a dilemma and
(19:34):
I'm going to bring in the crew here. So am
I mentioned this earlier. I am guest hosting the Fox
and Friends Weekend the Weather. So for those of you
out there that are like hey, Clay, I've listened to
you for fifteen hours already this week. But you know,
there's nothing better than my master's weekend starting off at
(19:55):
six am with you, bright and early, assuming my alarm
goes off, because I have to be in the Fox
studios at four forty five am Saturday and Sunday four
to so my weekend I am going to be in bed.
I'm not gonna be able to sleep because who can
go to bed early. And look, I know some of
you get up very very early, And for those of
(20:15):
you who don't know, I used to have to get
up around four forty every day for five years because
I did early morning sports talk radio late night because
the game's in late So I was always tired. And
I know a lot of you are in that position
where you're getting up super early. I haven't done it
in about five years or four years since we started
doing this show. I haven't been up that early. So
(20:36):
object one Responsibility one is wake up and get there.
Responsibility two is be entertaining for four hours super early
in the morning. I'm gonna be on with Rachel Compost
Duffy and with Charlie Hurt. Should be a lot of
fun and I can't wait for it. But the weather
is brutal here this weekend in New York City. So
(20:58):
I was looking people say, oh, okay, what do you
do in New York City. I'm up here by myself.
I don't have my kids with me. Wife is traveling
with our youngest. He's got a soccer tournament in Gatlinburg, Tennessee,
so the whole family is not here with me. So
I was thinking like, what should I do? How should
I entertain myself? Other than the fact that I have
to be up at four forty five in the morning.
(21:20):
I don't want to be going to dinner, you know,
in the late evenings. I certainly don't want to be
having drinks late and be mega hungover or something. So
I was like, what is a super easy going thing
that I could do that's somewhat unique to New York City?
And I told my wife last night what I was
going to do, and she made fun of me because
(21:41):
yesterday we were talking about Barack Obama going out to
dinner by himself, and my argument was, you can't go
out to dinner by yourself in your hometown if you're
married with kids and you got friends and everything else.
But I am going to go These are not musicals.
Before all of you deluge me about my anti musical position,
I'm correct, musicals are awful. But I have booked tickets
(22:05):
to go watch two different non musical Broadway plays all
by myself. I have a solo seat for two different
Broadway plays. I'm staying basically for those of you know
where the Fox studios are, basically right in Times Square.
So I can walk like a couple one hundred feet.
I'm going to a matinee on Saturday. I'm going to
(22:27):
see a fellow with Denzel Washington, which is gonna be great.
And I am going to tonight. I'm gonna go see
this George Clooney. Good night and good luck show. All right, Now,
I understand you can criticize me for like, I think
Denzel Washington is probably the best actor of his generation,
(22:49):
and so I'm excited to go see him in a play.
I've seen him once before in a play. My wife,
when we were up here, went and watched. I think
that's gonna be pretty cool. The George Clooney thing, I
think from a perspective, I'm actually intrigued to watch it
and then come on and tell you what the reaction
is to it and what I thought of the fairness
(23:10):
on the scale of Rachel Maddow as a crazy loon
to hey, normal people would watch this. So I am
doing this, But I had to grapple with the decision
is it okay to go solo? My analysis, I'm gonna
bring in the crew here because I want to hear
their takes. My analysis was it's way weirder First of all,
if I take a girl woman, that is like really weird, right,
(23:34):
even if it's a friend. It's like a Broadway play
that seems super romantic to go with another person, right.
It also seems kind of weird to go with a
dude to a play. I think just you me and
like a friend, like, what did you do on Friday? Well,
we went to a play together. I don't know. So
I actually think that I have made the right decision
(23:55):
to go completely solo. Let's start with you, producer Ali, Right,
my wife was making fun of me, but then I
think now that she's gonna listen to it. It's actually
what it would be if I went with like a
like you. If I took you, it'd be like, oh,
here's Clay Travis and some random girl. If you happen
to know me, going to a play with him kind
(24:15):
of feels like something that only dates would do. Am
I crazy?
Speaker 8 (24:18):
You're a hey, I think you're way overthinking this.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
This is why I'm going.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
So as a New Yorker, I've gone to plays alone.
I've gone to plays with friends, guys, girls. I think
it's I personally think it's okay. But the burning question
I have is where are your seats? Are you near
the wind section of the orchestra.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
I'm gonna take my flute. I'm gonna be performing during
the intermission at both events. I'm sure Denzel is gonna
be excited to pull me up on stage. So your
position as a New Yorker is that going to a
play by yourself is not an abnormal thing.
Speaker 8 (24:48):
To do, not at all. And dinner too. I've gone
to dinner alone in my neighborhood. We New Yorkers do
a lot of things on our own.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Okay, this is interesting because I'm now The weather's awful.
By the way, it's gonna be like four in rainy,
so there's not a lot of outdoor activities you could
take advantage of. All right, what do you think, greg
good decision, bad decision? How would you assess going.
Speaker 9 (25:08):
By yourself is actually not a bad decision? Being on
the aisle is an excellent decision. But I think if
you're going to a musical would be a little bit different.
Have you ever gone to a movie with a buddy?
Speaker 8 (25:18):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:19):
Yeah, it's going to see a play like this is
I would relate it to that. I'd make it so
if you went with a guy. Not a big deal
if you went with Ali.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
So I am going to be Mike Pence. Yeah, that's true.
I haven't made a rule for people who don't know. Sorry,
poor Mike Pence just getting blasted by Ali. Here. What
was Mike Pence's position? He could never be in a
room solo with another woman.
Speaker 8 (25:43):
Or to dinner.
Speaker 9 (25:45):
Bill Belichick though.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Well, yes, Bill Belichick's By the way, his twenty four
year old girlfriend is did you I see this? She's
going to be attempting to be Miss Maine. She has entered.
I don't know if it's Miss USA or Miss America.
I'm not I can never remember the difference between the two,
but she is attempting to be the representative of Maine. Okay,
(26:08):
we actually got into a discussion about that last night.
I still I understand what Bill Belichick. For those of
you who don't know, Bill Belichick is seventy two years old,
legendary New England Patriots, six time Super Bowl winning coach.
He has a twenty four year old girlfriend. I understand
what Bill Belichick is getting from the relationship. I can
kind of work through what he might be thinking. I
(26:29):
really don't know what this girl is thinking, and I
mean what she's getting. She's thinking, Miss Maine. She thinks
she's gonna be it. So here's the thing. As awkward
as it is for Belichick to have a twenty four
year old girlfriend, I am so glad that I've got
three boys, because if I had a daughter and she
brought home a boyfriend older than me, I think I
(26:50):
would murder him with my bare hand. Can you imagine,
like what that conversation would be like, having your daughter
that you raised dating a guy older than you As
a dad, I can't imagine there's any dad listening to
us right now that could handle that well. I think
I would. I think I would murder Belichick with my
bare hands if I were that guy.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
Yeah at that point too.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
I mean, I mean I get that she makes the choice.
So on the scale of morality, Belichick dating twenty four
year old way worse than me going solo to a
George Clooney play.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
I don't even think it's on the charts.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
You're okay, I could have taken a twenty four year
old to the George Cloney play, and then I'd have
a lot of questions that I need to answer. So
that's what's going on? What about the what about the
guest hosting of Fox and Friends? Do you guys watch
Fox and Friends on the weekend? I think it is
the most popular show basically on television on the weekend.
Now the masters are going on. I know a lot
of people are going to be waking up in the
(27:44):
morning putting this on. Do you have any advice for
me as the guest host of Fox and Friends? You
ali back in the day were a producer on an
animal show, Pet News Pet which is.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
Unbelievable nineteen ninety six.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
This is one of the earliest shows that News had on.
Speaker 8 (28:00):
Fox News before they were twenty four to seven News.
They had all different kinds of programming and Pet News
was their leading Saturday morning show two hours Live Now
think about that live with animals on set. There were
lots of accidents.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
The Pet News. What is the concept of pet News?
Is it like jack Hanna thing like you have? Like, like,
what are the what are the segments? Like?
Speaker 8 (28:21):
The segments were everything breed of the Week, how to
handle cats that scratch up your house? It was everything.
We did have Jack Hannah type segments. We had alpacas
in the studio, we had cats, dogs.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
And people love this. Animals on the morning show.
Speaker 8 (28:38):
They loved it. But I will say the show right
after pet News was called Fox on Health and it
was a bit more serious. And one day we had birds.
We had birds on our pet news show and the
birds got loose, they got up in the lights. We
couldn't get them down before the next show started. And
our host of that show had a bigger hair, big
like a big poof yeah, and the birdland it on
(29:00):
her head during her very serious segment. Never forget it.
Speaker 9 (29:03):
That's hilarious.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
Yes, I mean, I've done a lot of studio shows before,
and it's not like I have a I would say,
a very exalted view of myself. I mean I've had
hot sauce poured on me. You can google it. I've
done push up contests. I did a show once in
a lobster outfit, dressed up for how I've done a
lot of Halloween shows. I once did a segment in
a wedding dress after losing a bet. So I don't
(29:27):
think they're going to ask me to do anything where
I'm like, hey, I have too much journalistic integrity to
do this. They were actually, you guys heard some of
the pre pre LIMB calls, and they were like, hey,
you know, there's a couple of segments. We just want
to make sure you're okay, Like you might have to
do something, you know, associated with sports, like we may
have a basketball room. I'm like, come on, you, who
do you I'm not Walter Cronkite here. I think that
(29:49):
you know the.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
You're gonna have fun.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
It's gonna be a lot of The one thing, I
haven't had a suit on in a long time, and
they require full suits and ties, so I'm a little
bit nervous about just having to not screw up wearing
a suit.
Speaker 9 (30:01):
We'll grock that so we know exactly what it looks
like ahead of time because we haven't seen that in
a long time.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah, I think that could be a bit of a disaster.
But my biggest concern is just making sure that I'm awake.
So I'm gonna set like six alarms. And I asked
if they've ever had to come, like you know when
you have the teen the like teenagers on the road
and they have their curfews and everything else. Like I
was talking to them, I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna go
to a play and They're like, are you going to
(30:26):
be out?
Speaker 8 (30:27):
Oh yeah, because some players can go till past eleven pm.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Well, they were nervous already, and I was like, have
you ever had to show up at the hotel and
by I'm in a hotel near the television studio and
go get talent?
Speaker 8 (30:37):
Because you have I've had to do that.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
They weren't ready and they were reclassed, and you went
to the hotel and like banged on the door and
you're like, hey.
Speaker 8 (30:46):
Back in the early days of pet.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
News for pet News, Oh man, I think that would
be a bad That would be a poor way to
get started. So anyway, that's gonna be fun this weekend.
You mentioned pet News, we come back. We're gonna have
a fun conclusion for everybody out there. We have got
the Peter Noosey. It's a little bit of an animal
thunderdome bit. Peter Doosey, who obviously covers the White House
(31:08):
well for Fox News, was doing a hit this morning
on Fox and Friends. And what is a perfect segue,
And we're going to have some fun rolling you into
the weekend with what happened to him. We'll do that
in a bit. But remindered everybody out there. If you
want eight more hours of me for the first time ever,
you will have eight more hours of me on Saturday Sunday.
By the way, I've done a lot of Saturday college
(31:28):
football stuff and I've been on Fox and Friends Morning,
but never eight more hours. So we will see how
that goes. And it should be a lot of fun.
And I want to tell you, hey, a lot of you,

I did OutKick the coverage which a lot of you
(33:17):
listened to, the morning radio show led into Dan Patrick
Colin Cowherd on Fox Sports Radio Networks nationwide. I did
that for five years preparation for getting up super early
in the morning. We were live at six am, six
to nine. We did a fun thing called the Animal Thunderdome.
Sometimes animals decide to attack humans, and that happened to
(33:38):
our good friend Peter Doocey outside of the White House
this morning on Fox and Friends. If you missed it,
it's a very funny video. We'll have it posted at
clayanbuck dot com. Peterdocy screams as a bird decides to
land on his head during a live hit from the
White House. Listen, Peter, I appreciate it.
Speaker 5 (33:57):
My head.
Speaker 7 (34:02):
That I did not like that at all.
Speaker 5 (34:05):
The back of your head.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
Your hair is standing up now, I mean you got
the hair though?
Speaker 1 (34:09):
What was going on?
Speaker 5 (34:11):
It's probably so dirty?
Speaker 9 (34:15):
Did he say dirty?
Speaker 6 (34:18):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (34:19):
President Trump, if you're watching upstairs, we gotta do something
about these birds, all right? So Doucey begging for Trump
to save him from birds. Allie, you ever have a
bird land on your head when you were producing Fox Sports,
the Fox Pet Show on Fox News.
Speaker 8 (34:35):
Well, I have to say, Peter Doocey. Steve Doocey was
one of our hosts of Pet News, and I remember
in the nineties, way back in the nineties, and I
remember when he brought Little Peter in, so it's sort
of a full circle moment. We have all kinds of
videos with him doing packages for the show. He was
actually really good and when he was a kid, no, no,
(34:57):
Steve was really good with the animals.
Speaker 1 (34:59):
He's really good on television, So it doesn't surprise remember
at the time, so running around and now he's the
probably the best White House correspondent.
Speaker 8 (35:07):
Can't be a New Yorker without getting what I call pigeoned.
Everyone gets pigeoned eventually.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Meaning that a pigeon just flies into you. Well, I
think he got lucky that he didn't get pooped on.
Its supposed to be good luck, although it doesn't seem
like it would be very good luck. If you get
pooped on, right, that is awesome. Hey, I appreciate all
of you. You guys have been fantastic. We'll see how
I do going uh into the weekend. Also solo with
the with the show in general, be back next week.
(35:34):
We'll see when Buck gets back. Buck Dad Uh. It
should be a lot of fun. Look forward to all
of that. Best to Buck and Carrie and all of
you out there that might be getting ready for your
own kids, your own grandkids. We back on Monday. I
cannot wait to hang out with you guys then, and
in the meantime kicking back watching The Masters starting at
six am. Well you can spend Fox and Friends mornings
(35:57):
weekends with me as well. But until then, thank you guys,
and good night and good luck. We'll see how the
play goes and whether George Clooney is anyway fair or not.
I'll give you my review on Monday. We'll see how
solo play going. But just remember, whatever you do, grab
your flutes. Have some fun.
