Normally Podcast: Tensions Escalate in the Middle East

Daily Review With Clay and Buck - Jun 16 2025

No Kings Nonsense Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show kicks off with Clay Travis broadcasting solo from Washington, D.C., while Buck Sexton is in Cannes, France, meeting with major advertisers—a testament to the show's growing influence and reach. Clay reflects on the show's evolution and the recent surge in advertiser interest, highlighting the disconnect between mainstream brands and the show's massive, engaged audience. The hour delves into a wide range of topics, beginning with Clay’s personal experience spending Father’s Day at the Smithsonian’s Air and Space Museum with his son. He draws a powerful parallel between the Wright brothers’ pioneering spirit and the current stagnation in American innovation, emphasizing how figures like Elon Musk and President Donald Trump are reigniting the nation’s exploratory ambition—particularly in space travel and technological advancement. The Left Has Lost the Plot Clay contrasts two major events in Washington over the weekend: a military parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army and the “No Kings” protest opposing President Trump. He critiques the protestors’ historical ignorance, arguing that the military’s role in defeating monarchy and establishing American democracy is being overlooked. He underscores how President Trump’s celebration of American history and military tradition stands in stark contrast to the left’s emotionally driven, media-fueled opposition. The discussion also touches on the cultural and educational decline, using George Washington University’s decision to drop the “Colonials” mascot as a case study in historical misunderstanding. Clay argues that this trend reflects a broader societal failure to teach and preserve accurate American history. Throughout the hour, Clay emphasizes the importance of authenticity in leadership and media, asserting that President Trump’s transparency and consistency have strengthened his support, especially among younger voters. He also warns against political violence, condemning recent threats and attacks, and urges listeners to engage through peaceful, democratic means. A Message to Iran Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show opens with reflections on the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary parade and the “No Kings” protest, which Clay critiques as historically misguided. He emphasizes the importance of the American Revolution and the colonial army in securing freedom from monarchy, drawing a contrast between celebratory patriotism and modern anti-establishment demonstrations. Clay then shifts to a deep dive into California’s demographic and political transformation, highlighting the state’s historical evolution from sparsely populated territory to a booming state post-Gold Rush. He critiques progressive narratives that challenge U.S. sovereignty over California, particularly those that emphasize its Mexican and Spanish colonial past, and argues that such views ignore the role of Native Americans and historical context. The episode’s central theme revolves around escalating tensions in the Middle East, particularly between Israel and Iran. Clay discusses the aftermath of the October 7 attacks and the surge in antisemitic hate crimes in the U.S., citing data from The New York Times. He strongly supports Israel’s military response and frames the conflict as a battle between good and evil, with Israel and President Trump on the side of freedom and democracy. A major segment features Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s interview with Brett Baier, where Netanyahu confirms that Iran attempted to assassinate President Trump twice. This revelation underscores Trump’s status as a primary adversary of the Iranian regime and a staunch defender of Middle Eastern freedom. Clay also plays audio from Iranian state television and Israeli officials, inclu

Hour 2 - A Message to Iran

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show opens with reflections on the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary parade and the “No Kings” protest, which Clay critiques as historically misguided. He emphasizes the importance of the American Revolution and the colonial army in securing freedom from monarchy, drawing a contrast between celebratory patriotism and modern anti-establishment demonstrations.

A major segment features Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s interview with Brett Baier, where Netanyahu confirms that Iran attempted to assassinate President Trump twice. This revelation underscores Trump’s status as a primary adversary of the Iranian regime and a staunch defender of Middle Eastern freedom. Clay also plays audio from Iranian state television and Israeli officials, including Amir Ohana, Speaker of the Knesset, who directly addresses the Iranian people, urging them to rise against the oppressive regime. The conversation highlights Israel’s strategic air dominance and the crumbling credibility of Iran’s leadership. The hour concludes with a compelling interview with Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report. Rubin, recently returned from Israel, supports Israel’s right to self-defense and praises Trump’s America First foreign policy. He argues that economic cooperation and peace are achievable if Iran abandons its anti-Israel stance. Rubin and Clay both emphasize that this is not a repeat of the Iraq War, but a unique opportunity for the Iranian people to reclaim freedom and prosperity. Additional commentary includes Clay’s humorous take on fashion criticism he receives from viewers, adding a light-hearted close to an otherwise intense hour.

Hour 3 - Conservative Influencer, Arynne Wexler

In Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, Clay Travis leads a compelling discussion focused on the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, emphasizing its direct implications for U.S. national security and foreign policy. Broadcasting solo from Washington, D.C., Clay opens with personal reflections on Father’s Day and quickly pivots to the geopolitical crisis, highlighting the strategic and moral necessity of Israel’s recent military strikes on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. Clay draws historical parallels to Pearl Harbor and World War II, framing the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel as a pivotal moment that demands a strong response. He underscores President Donald Trump’s leadership in fostering Middle East peace through the Abraham Accords and argues that Hamas’s aggression was aimed at derailing this progress. The hour features an in-depth interview with political commentator Arynne Wexler, who supports the view that removing Iran’s Ayatollahs is essential to preventing a nuclear-armed regime. Together, Clay and Arynne challenge the growing isolationist sentiment on the right, asserting that “America First” should not mean “America Alone.” They argue that supporting Israel and promoting Western values—capitalism, human rights, and religious tolerance—aligns with core American interests. The conversation also addresses the rise of antisemitism, misinformation about Jewish influence, and the importance of economic diplomacy over religious conflict. Clay and Arynne highlight how President Trump’s commerce-first approach has reshaped alliances in the Middle East and could serve as a model for future U.S. policy. The episode wraps with commentary on major sports events, including the NHL and NBA finals and the dramatic finish of the U.S. Open, while previewing upcoming guests like FCC Chairman Brendan Carr and Senator Rand Paul.

She sees this as a major issue that the public overwhelmingly supports. Senator Blackburn discusses the Republican tax cut bill, emphasizing the need for permanence in the tax cuts to spur long-term economic growth. Assistant Secretary at the Department of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin defends the immigration enforcement actions taken by the Trump administration, arguing that they are focused on removing dangerous criminal illegal aliens. Clay and Buck also share behind-the-scenes details from their recent visit to the West Wing, where they met with President Trump and key administration figures. They describe a confident and energized president, particularly proud of his recent move to terminate California’s electric vehicle (EV) mandate, restoring consumer choice and protecting the U.S. auto industry from overregulation. The repeal of the EV mandate is framed as a major victory for free markets, energy independence, and American manufacturing. Finally, the episode touches on the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, with real-time updates on missile attacks and air raid sirens in Tel Aviv. The hosts analyze the strategic implications of Israel’s precision strikes and the broader geopolitical fallout, emphasizing the strength of U.S.-Israel relations under President Trump and the potential for regime change in Iran.
