In hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show, the hosts continue their analysis of the stock market's reaction to Trump's aggressive trade policies. They provide updates on the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average, noting the market's resilience despite initial volatility. The discussion emphasizes the long-term benefits of Trump's economic strategy and the importance of maintaining perspective amidst short-term fluctuations.
The hosts also revisit the controversial stabbing incident in Texas, providing updates on the GoFundMe campaign for the accused and discussing the broader implications of the case. They explore the societal and cultural factors contributing to violence and the need for honest conversations about these issues.
A significant portion of the hour is dedicated to the ongoing debate about transgender athletes in sports. The hosts critique John Oliver's recent segment on the topic, arguing that biological differences between men and women create inherent advantages for male athletes, even those who identify as female. They emphasize the importance of maintaining fair competition in women's sports and challenge the left's narrative on this issue.
Why we love Senator Ted Cruz's beard.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Third hour of Clay and Buck kicks off now, and
I feel like Clay's the guy on the stock market
floor today. I'm like, Clay, tell us what's going on
down there on the floor of the exchange. There's all
the people running around by, So what's the latest.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
The S ANDB five hundred is up for the day,
the up as we speak right now by around point
four percent, and the Dow is down about one hundred
and forty points, So a bit of a split verdict
to there. SMP five hundred obviously the five hundred largest
(00:37):
companies the better approximator of the markets move in general. Meanwhile,
the Dow Jones only thirty companies involved in the Dow
Jones Industrial Index. But basically a day where not much
has happened after actually a lot has happened in terms
of fluctuation. But the end result as we speak to
(01:00):
you with a couple of hours left of trading, is
that Monday has not been a very very crazy outcome
so far relative to the moves that we saw on
Thursday and Friday.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
No one's gonna call this Black Monday, the day that
the stock market was destroyed forever or something, you know,
it's all gonna be okay. You know.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I think what it suggests buck for people out there
is the market was got an unexpected outcome. Trump was
more aggressive on trade than they anticipated. On Wednesday, so
called Liberation Day, Thursday and Friday, the stock market changed
went down quite a lot. Now on Monday, people have
digested it. They've said, okay, we've gotten used to what happened.
(01:44):
The predictions this predictions often are that Monday would be
a cataclysmic day for US stocks have as we speak
to you with two hours left in trading, not proven true.
And again, stock prices are basically the same as where
they were a year ago. In the larger context, it
was on October twenty fourth, nineteen twenty nine that Black
(02:05):
Thursday occurred, and that was the the great crash and
the one that people always refer to so black that's
Black Thursday.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
October twenty fourth, nineteen twenty nine. This is not that,
And people can just relax a little bit. It's gonna
be okay, It's gonna be all right. Trump is dedicated
to this. He bigly knows what the plan is, and
it's just about resetting some things, and that it's gonna
be great. Probably the best economy we've ever seen. Just
(02:38):
gonna take a little time to get there. All right,
a couple of updates to some other stories, and I
want to get to this trans athlete thing more more
female athletes taking a stand or in some cases, I
guess taking a knee. But for the right reason. We'll
get into this. Two things though. One is that we
were just talking about that stabbing story in Texas Clay
and it seems that it just broke as we were
(02:59):
talking about this. I can't say that one led to
the other. But they've pulled the ghost GoFundMe for the
and so I guess they are adhering to the criminal
defense rules. Maybe they got caught though on this one
people pointed out, Hey, you say no criminal defense fundraising
on go fundme, and now that's ended. You have addition
(03:22):
one bit of change there is at Give Send Go
and look team. Can you look up the difference on
what these organizations are. I'm not sure if ghost they're
just variations on the seat. I think they did the
same PLATF same stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Okay, so they are allowing their funding to still occur.
That has raised one hundred and seventy thousand dollars. So
the main one that is go fundme, which a lot
of people know has shut down the ability to raise money.
What I am seeing on give Send Go is that
(03:58):
that has still been allowed to have happen, and that
there has been one hundred and seventy thousand dollars raised
on that platform. The reason why I say Gibson Go,
They're a bunch different of these companies that compete against
each other, and so I don't know if this is
quote unquote a left winging site or what their orders
of fundraising, rules of fundraising are, but they have raised
(04:21):
over one hundred and seventy thousand for this alleged stabber there.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
And just to bring this one full circle too, while
somebody was out hitting three hundred yard drives with the
celebrities last week in the sunshine, having a great old time,
I was here taking grenades in the trenches solo on
that McDonald's dad who left the dad at McDonald's who
(04:46):
left his kids. And then we were all we we
just went on the news story and we said we
needed more facts, and some of you were very skeptical
even the facts initially. And it turns out he wasn't
at a job interview. It was ninety minutes, and they
pulled his GoFundMe and actually refunded everybody their money. He
was not allowed to profit from that one either. So
(05:08):
these sites have gotten a little bit more, a little
more dialed in, a little savvy or on what's going on.
But so yeah, on that one, you know, man, it's
it's just it's interesting, isn't it. He clearly knew that
saying I was going for a job interview, there'd be
a lot of people that there would be sympathy for
his position. Now when you hear he just left the
(05:29):
kids there, and then the mother of the kids was
called to the scene and she was furious about it,
like this guy messed up right, and the cop did
not mess up? Who was there? The cops handled this perfectly,
we did say, I said at the time, just to
be clear, I was like, I do not blame the
cops at all. We need to know exactly what's going
on here, and so we did not jump to blame
police on this one for anything, and for even a
(05:50):
poor judgment call. But we updated that story and uh yeah,
see we're not MSNBC. When a story goes the way
you know, when a story goes in the other direct
from how it might have been trending, we don't go, oh,
let's just move on to something else. Clay, you want
to talk about the trans stuff? Now for a seconds?
Do this is a let's dive into this, shall we?
Here you have John Oliver of Last Week Tonight. John Oliver.
(06:16):
He talks like this all the time, and people on
the left think that that must make him smart. It
does not, in fact, and he doesn't really know anything.
And it's shocking that well, I shouldn't say shocking, but
it's just preposterous that Max still gives this guy the
platform that they do. But he's now joined Neil deGrasse Tyson,
who did this on the Bill Maher Show. He has
(06:37):
joined the other celebrities of the left who say there
is no advantage that men do not have an advantage
over women in sports play sixteen, we.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Expect a certain amount of difference in athletics. Taller basketball
players are expected to compete against shorter ones. Faster soccer
players compete against slow ones. Michael Phelps was allowed to
compete with other swimmers despite being part dolphin, and crucially,
none of the studies I've mentioned so bear much relevance
to what these new laws target, which is youth sports
usually of all ages, and the research there is even
(07:07):
more scants. We have no research about how being transit
undergoing gender filming treatments impacts athletic performance in teams. And
when it comes to kids before the onset of puberty,
I'd argue, when he's talking about seven year olds, as
a practical matter, that's a point where lots of school
sports are co ed anyway, and a key difference between
competitors on a field can come down to whether a
(07:27):
kid was born in October or April.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Okay, forty five minutes on this, and we just played
you a cut of this. I have coached little league
sports in baseball, basketball, soccer, and.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Football flag football.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
In many of those leagues there have been young girls
who played as well. In fact, I have coached young
girls on predominantly boy teams. No one out there is saying, hey,
if you are eleven you want to play boys baseball
and you're really good, or you are nine and you
want to play boys basketball because you're a really good
(08:07):
girls player, that there's anything wrong at all with that,
Because it is true that before puberty, there isn't that
much difference in young kids overall athletic ability. In fact,
on one of my teams, I think our ten U
baseball team, the best player that I coached was a girl.
(08:27):
She was fabulous. Guess what testosterone starts to come in
when boys hit puberty. And as everyone who has coached
young boys knows, the team with the most kids with
the mustaches is going to be the best when you're
like thirteen years old. Whoever hits puberty the fastest, it
is they are bigger, stronger, faster. It is an overwhelming.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Difference testosterum level, especially for young people. It almost functions
the way that steroids for adults do. In fact, professional
body builders they will say that I have friends. I
am clearly not one, but I have friends down in
Miami who are because they're everywhere. Clay went to the
gym down here. He understands this is the most gym
obsessed culture in the United States, bar none, no question,
(09:13):
South Florida like I've been, I've been to gym's in
Beverly Hills. I grew up in New York City. There
is no place that is as obsessed with this stuff.
As South Florida. And if you run, they call it
running tests. If you take exogynous testosterone to a certain
level of functions very much in your body, just like
steroids do I mean in terms of muscle growth, muscle density,
all these sorts of things, and people usually take that
(09:35):
alongside anabolic steroids, and that's how they get so enormously
big and muscular. Bring it up because you know, if
you have a guy that is taking is taking steroids
and a guy who is not, trust me, you know
the difference, and so do they. And if you have
a thirteen year old kid whose body has started to
release the because the pituitary gland is kicked in and
they are releasing the hormones necessary for extra testosterone production,
(09:58):
it is a whole different world, right. The kids with
the mustaches and they aren't pit hair when you're in
the ninth grade, those are the ato Those are the
kids that are like dunking. And the kids that are
maybe a year or two behind that, they still look
like they could be singing in the sixth grade choir.
It's just reality, totally true, totally true.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
And the fact that left wingers have decided that the
hill they want to die on is there's no difference
between men and women when it comes to athletics and
that trans women, which is that is to say, men
who are identifying as women. Riley Gaines asked a good question.
It's one I've been asking for a long time. If
this is true, how come no women who identify as
(10:34):
men are dominating in men's sports, right? Like, if there's
If they're so, why have separate sports at all?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Correct? Why? That's the even most fundamental question period? Why
why have the most you know, why have Why have
we separated and segregated sports by gender as long as
we have? If what John Oliver says is true, there's
no basis for just that we should just have pants.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Everybody should just compete in organization men and women, which is.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
The destruction of women's sports and women's achievement. You would
not have a single professional female athlete in any sport whatsoever, period,
full stop. You would not have a single D one
female athlete, or D three female athlete, or really high
school of varsity athlete because the men would get all
the spots. So that is reality.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Yeah, So this is supposedly a super smart show, right,
filled with people that think they are smarter than you
and me and everyone else. And his argument basically boils
down to, well, we don't really know if there's any
competitive advantage, and therefore men who identify as women should
be able to compete in women's sports. And anybody who's
(11:42):
arguing otherwise isn't paying attention to the data. They just lie,
and they just lie blatantly. And I think it's important
to share with you what they are producing. This isn't
some off the cuff take. This is a produced, a written,
an entire segment defined as men who identify as women
(12:05):
deserve to play women's sports. And I will reiterate again,
no one out there that I've heard I played. When
I was in the nineteen eighties playing baseball in Goodletsville, Tennessee,
there were girls playing in our league when we were
ten or eleven years old. That's been happening for a
long time. Talented female athletes who want to compete pre puberty,
or even are able to compete post puberty, I have
(12:27):
no issue with they can't because testosterone is reel. Men
are athletically bigger, stronger, and faster than women, which is
why we have divided men and women's sports since time immemorials,
so long as I can remember competition existing.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Why have age differences there are I mean, there are
six there are sixteen year olds. There are fourteen year
olds who are better at I'll just take a sport.
I know, well, I know fourteen year old I know
twelve year olds that have played tennis. You know, I
actually played against like when I was a kid, and
I got absolutely smoked and destroyed by the way. She
was like a top ten Russian thirteen and undergirl and
(13:07):
I was like fifteen, you know, but I was at
a tennis academy and we're you know, you just sort
of play every absolutely destroyed me by the way. And
I'm not a particularly good tennis player, but I'm okay.
But I was several years older and this was a girl.
But does that mean then then we shouldn't have age
you know what I mean? If the best twelve year
old in the world can beat the best well can
beat college players, which is true or at least close
(13:28):
to maybe can beat high school players. Not really college
players could be high school players. Why do we have
age segregation in sports? Yea, see totally true all these arguments.
If it's not always true. They act like it's not true,
and this is the fundamental flaw in their entire argument
that makes the thing just laughable and absurd. But they're
staying on, and you know what, I think, good, stay
(13:49):
on this one. We will continue to make them eat
their cooking on this. We're going to continue to make
them asleep in the bed that they have made on
this on the left of the Democrats because they're insane,
and eighty percent of the country actually knows it, and
sixty percent of the country will vote based on the
fact that this is completely crazy. Let's talk about rapid radios.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
They make modern day walkie talkies the kin you can
use to connect to anyone nationwide if innovated the old
school walkie talkie with new technology. And here's the great
thing about these devices. They connect you to family, friends,
and coworkers anywhere in the US, accessing the nationwide LTE

(14:30):

doesn't like all the complications of a cell phone, or
one of her kids that doesn't want to or one
of your kids that you don't want on the internet.

to have these.

Speaker 4 (15:21):
Clay Travis at buck Sexton find them on the free
iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us. By the way, the
group that is allowing this stabber alleged in the Dallas,
Texas area Frisco, Texas to raise money is according to
the Team, a Christian based organization. Give sin Goo, faith
(15:51):
based Christian oriented the number one free Christian crowdfunding site,
often emphasizing prayer and ministry alongside fundraising. I don't know
what their policies are when it comes to defendants in
cases raising money. Maybe it's the case that they allow
anyone to raise money on the site as a Christian process,
(16:15):
It's possible.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I would encourage you guys to do your own research
into this, and I'll ask our staff too. Did they
allow Kyle Rittenhouse to raise money on that page? If
they did, more credit to them because they're at least
applying an even principle. And as long as principles are
applied evenly, I think that is you can agree or
(16:38):
disagree with the principle, but I think that's fair.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
If they are.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Picking and choosing who is allowed to raise money on
their site, though, then that is where I would come
down and say, hey, we need to have a consistent
rule as it pertains to that. By the way, since
we are now the CNBC stock Market, Universe market still
up buck so with a little bit over an hour
(17:02):
and a half to go in today's market, can we
get Jim Kramer saying this was going to be like
the worst Jim every gyp Jim Kramer is the worst
predictor on the planet. He said that this could be
one of the worst days in the history of the
American stock market. And I think it's fair to say
(17:23):
that that is not going to actually materialize, and in fact,
stock prices might well end up up for the day.
Jim Kramer another swinging a miss. As it pertains to
that a lot of you went a weigh in, by
the way, eight hundred and two A two two eight
A two. We'll get into some of your talkbacks and
some of your some of your VIP messages and beyond
(17:43):
all that and more still to come. But I want
to tell you LifeLock right now. The Identity Theft Resource
Center says cybercrime will increase again this year, with tools

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Welcome back into Clay and block talkbacks, phone calls, emails.
Oh my, A big day, A lot going on. Just
an update here. Trump currently negotiating with Japan on the
tariff's issue, and you know he's negotiating. Look, if Trump
said these are the numbers, I'm not backing down on
any of them. This is my word is final, and
(19:11):
you know, no matter what happens, this is then I'd
be like, yeah, that seems a little extreme, little concern.
He's saying, these are the numbers, let's talk about it,
and people are saying, okay, let's talk, and then they're
coming up with better ways to go forward. That's how
negotiation should be, right. Negotiation always involves what do you want?
Speaker 2 (19:28):
What do they want? It's not just everybody's happy. It's
like your favorite Clay from Billions, the show acts. He says,
nobody leaves negotiation happy.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
You know, you get the best you can, and you
hope you leave feeling like it was fair but happy,
you know, happy. He's asking a lot. Let's get some
of our talkbacks here. We got some great ones. AA
listener Katie in Tucson on KNST hosted me last week.
Great station down there, Hi.
Speaker 5 (19:55):
Clean Buck Katie listening on KNST here in Tucson. You guys,
I should try coming back in the middle of summer
when it's one hundred and fifteen degrees outside and it
feels like you're walking into an oven every time you
go out the door.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
I don't know why people keep like yeah, Like, you know,
Montana is beautiful in the summer, but I don't think
i'd like it in January like I'm aware. I'm just
saying I was in April in Tucson. Clay is just beautiful. Yeah,
it's absolutely and it's magic. I think the desert landscape
is amazing. I just don't know. I had nothing but
positive things and feelings about Arizona, but I kept having
(20:31):
people tell me come back in the summer. Well, no,
how about I'll just come when it's perfect. And I
love it here, like I don't know why. The only
funny I got one quick funny thing for you at
the front desk where I was staying. And I was
just there to give a speech and a great organization.
But where I was staying, you know, I'll go to
the front desk and I wanted to get my steps
in because you guys all know that I'm big on
(20:52):
the walk, right, I'm walking, walking, walking cheat code for life.
Why so even when I'm on a vacation or even
when i'm you know, away for the weekend or something,
I want to walk every day and if I don't,
I feel like, you know, I'm not gonna sleep as
well anyway. So there's all these trails, right, and some
of the trails are and they're through the desert, and
some of the trails are like a two hour trail
and some of them are a twelve hour trail. And
(21:13):
there's all these trails that walk right off of the
resort where the event was. And the lady who's showing
me all these things at the concierge, she's being very
helpful and she's, you know, very serious, better job. She's like, well,
you can do this one, and you can do this one,
you can do this one. And I just looked at
her for a second. I said, just give me the
trail where the are no rattlesnakes. And she looks back
at me and she goes, oh, sir, I'm sorry. I
can't guarantee you any of these trails will be free
(21:34):
of rattlesnakes. It's like, oh, that's so nice that you
thought that. I really thought you could do that. That
would have been fun. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
By the way, April is when the rattlers come out again.
So yeah, totally. Did I mention on this show. I
don't think I did. Speaking of snakes on walkways. When
I was in Australia with the family over Christmas New Years,
not this past year or the year before. We were
on a great Ocean Road tour, which was amazing, and
there was a part of it near the beach and
(22:04):
we're walking downstairs and I'm with my middle son and
we stepped right over a dangerous, poisonous snake. Didn't even
see it, like on the walkway. Lara is coming behind us,
my wife sees it.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Freaks out.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
There's probably like one hundred people behind us, like we
never saw it. Deadly Australia is the I think the
poisonous snake capital of the world. Stepped right over the
top of it, never had an issue at all, everybody
else's You look up the hillside from the beach, there
are one hundred people all panicked, stopping on the uh
(22:37):
refusing to move across. And Laura of course coming behind it,
saw it, recognized the danger, totally oblivious to it, just
stepped right over, you know, basically a deadly Australian snake.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Your wife, Your wife trains constantly. She probably has the
reflexes of a mongoose, like I wouldn't worry about around the.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Snake, also thinking that there might be a snake there,
whereas my fourteen and I, you know, a year old,
were just completely oblivious to all danger and as a result,
had no danger at all.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Yeah, it's funny too. They always tell you that rattlers
won't bother you unless you bother them, and I always
think to myself, but there are like hundreds of people
get bitten in Arizona every year because I look this
up because that's the kind of thing that I do.
Were they really messing with the rattler or they just
walking and didn't know there was one there? Right? The
it won't mess with you if you don't mess with it. Well,
(23:28):
if by mess with it you mean walking and not
knowing that it's there. I don't think they were trying
to pick it up, right exactly. Like I don't think
anyone's like, oh, he's my friend, let's be friends with
the rattlesnake. That's probably not a good move. BB listener,
Maryland in Central Pennsylvania, Let's go buck.
Speaker 6 (23:44):
We want to wish you all the best and many
blessings on the arrival of sweet baby James. When my
daughter was pregnant with our grandson, I bought her a
couple of bottles of an old school remedy for fussy
babies called gripe water. There are many varieties for different ailments.
It's easily available on Amazon and some drug stores. It's cheap.
(24:06):
Look into it. You won't regret it.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
I have not heard of this, although I feel like
I heard of it either Gripe water because I get
I get fussy about things.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
For people who don't know, this is the big week.
Wednesday is supposedly the scheduled arrival of your first ever baby,
you and Carrie.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
So by the way, there's just so people are like,
how could you travel when you don't The baby is
really supposed to be due in a in a in
like two plus weeks, but he's a little big. So
the doctor said, we're going to try to, you know,
go a little early, if you catch my drift. So
that's so we're going into the hospital because the baby's
(24:45):
getting a little big, is what we have been told.
You're being induced.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
It's a scheduled delivery, which is why you you will
come on and say, hey, we're scheduled to have the
baby on Wednesday. Possible late tonight you're suddenly in the hospital.
Could happen, but Wednesday is the Wednesday's target date.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
X day. Now we got a listener. It's been too long,
it's been too long since we've had a listener. Just
lighting up Clay over sports Robert in Houston. Oh, I
know where this is going.
Speaker 7 (25:09):
Cc Hey, Clay, what was that you were saying about
Duke going all the way on your bracket? Well as
my Houston Cougars have said, denied, don't you dare count
now my Houston Cougars again.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
We'll see what happens now on Monday night.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Clay is I'm feeling those cougar claws right now from
our huge Houston audience. I'm just saying, Clay, I want
you to listen carefully. Houston fans, You've had an amazing year,
Kelvin Sampson, amazing, incredible coach, phenomenal comeback. Sorry, Duke Fans.
Late last night on Saturday Night, I was watching even
rooting for you because I like to see the upset.
(25:45):
Florida Gators are cutting down the net and hoisting the
championship trophy tonight. They are one and a half point favorite.
Late night, your run is coming to a close, and
the Florida Gators, the best team in the SEC this year,
are going to win the NC DOUBLEA tournament championship title,
and we need to get an update. I think, did
you have Duke in the title game?
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Buck? I think you did. I did. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I think that as a result, I have won our
bracket challenge. We need to have a final tally because
both of us picked Florida to win the NC DOUBLEA tournament.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Now, how close was it? Though? I think it's going
to be very very close.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
I will will have to figure out the final numbers,
and I could be wrong because I think if Duke
had won, if they hadn't collapsed, you would have won
the bracket challenge based on the numbers that they have
shared with us.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
So Mark, let me down on this one.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Getting out scored nine to zero in the final thirty
five seconds of that game, which was an unprecedented collapse,
unprecedented comeback, whichever way you want to look at it,
both are true. As a result, I think put me
into the winners bracket no matter what happens, because neither
of us picked Houston. But again, I'm sorry, Cougar fans,
love the city of Houston, love everybody all around there.
(26:58):
But unfortunately for you, your magical run comes to a
close and the Florida Gators are going to win this.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Wait a second, Wait a second, you're you're doubling down
on this. Now. Are Houston people among our most loyal
and beloved massive audiences in any city in this country? Clay,
and you are just provoking the ire of Houstonian.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
For me to antagonize them. But they're wrong. Their team
is going to lose and Florida will win. You can
clip this. I'm gonna play it tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
You know what? You know what? You know what? Clay?
How about this? Oh no, mynd what is she listening?
She's not hearing this. I'm she's not. I don't think
she can hear this. Well, it is technically rebroadcast on podcasts.
So there's that for our brad are we are we
one game apart on the bracket challenge? Because I want
to say, if.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Your answer, do you want to flip to Houston? I'm
gonna flip because I love our Houston audience. I believe
in Actually, no, I can't because Florida. I live in Florida.
I love Florida.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
I mean, so, I thought it was interesting that you
would go at your wife's all player and your home state.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Yeah, that's a bad week, when a bad move when
the baby's coming this week too. No, no, no, sorry, sorry.
I love you, Houston, but I can't do it. I
got so close, you.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Teased, you antagonized, you teased, and then you stepped away
at the last time.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I have to step away from that one.
Speaker 5 (28:12):
You know.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
It's like when I tried to do the shuffle dance
on TikTok. I saw a couple of videos and I
was like, you know what, nobody should ever see this.
So the staff is going to take Houston so they
can make fun of us tomorrow. We are both still
staying strong on Florida. Sorry Gators that I wavered for
a second. I saw you in the water swimming toward
me and I got worried. So but yes, the staff
is going to take Houston. We are going to take
(28:33):
the Gators for the big game tomorrow. All right.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
I've got picks for you too, for price picks on
the big game tonight. Are you ready? This is the
perfect tease. Let's do this, get to it all right.

The Team forty seven podcast Sunday's at noon Eastern in
the Clay and Buck podcast feed. Find it on the
iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. All right,
our good buddy. Jim Kramer CNBC. He said on Friday,
Monday was going to be basically a stock market apocalypse.
As we sit here with a little bit over one
hour left in trading, the S and P five hundred
up a small amount, the Dow down a small amount.
(30:57):
I think it's fair to say this prediction is going
to continue. The Kramer, which is whatever he says, do
the exact opposite.
Speaker 8 (31:04):
Listen, the President doesn't try to reach out and board
these countries and companies that play by the rules. In
the nineteen eighty seven scenario, the one where we went
down three days and then down twenty two percent on Monday,
has the most cogency. We will not have to wait
out too or willing we'll know by Monday.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Fortunately, we had an excellent set of employment numbers.
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Say at least it makes it less likely a crash
will necessarily lead to a resession. But if President Trump
stays in transgent and does nothing to amiliate the damage
that I saw these last two days, I'm not going
to be constructive here. I will contain my anger, but
only because I lived through eighty seven and in the
end I came out Okay, I was seeing cash for
the crash.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
I know what this feels like.
Speaker 8 (31:40):
Oh and if Europe moves against our fabulous tech companies
next week, then I will be furious that, I promise you,
because it should not happen.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Okay, so it has not actually occurred, and unless something
crazy happens in the next hour, in fact, the reverse Cramer,
we may end up with the stock market up.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Couple of callers, buck, can I give you a fun
VIP real quick here? I like this. This is one
from our VIP emailers. Thank you so much VIPs, Alan
writes I always get a kick out of you guys
talking about Ted Cruz's beard. Every guy, even a guy
that shaves every day, can appreciate a man that can
grow such a well crafted beard. Senator Cruz's beard is
(32:20):
a sight to behold. I believe it is close to
kevlar level density. Most men can only dream of such
facial hair density. Alan well played. I'll just tell you
clean shaven Ted Cruz. You want him checking your math homework.
You probably want to partner with him in the science lab.
Bearded Ted Cruz, he could probably lasso a steer for you,
(32:42):
help you in a bar fight. I'm just saying, bearded
Ted Cruz, clean shaven Ted Cruz, it's a whole different deal.
It's like Spider Man before the you know, the radioactive
spider bite, and after, it's just a different deal.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
I haven't asked you this question, so people may be
able to tell on video my beard for some reason,
and I would love to hear from people what the
what the biology is on this. Your beard for men
typically goes gray before the hair, that is like the
gray beard thing. Do you agree with me that men
(33:16):
who dye their beards are completely untrustworthy? Like I'm gonna
let my beard go full white whenever it might happen.
I am not going to be You're not gonna see
me with like a just for men brush, like trying.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
To fool all of you.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
And someday I'm gonna come back in and it's gonna
be like midnight dark, and you're gonna be like, wait
a minute, what happened.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I think I'm gonna go gray hair too. I'm not
gonna color my hair.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
But the beard, to me is dying your beard is
like defeats the whole purpose of having a beard in
the first place.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Are you with me on this that the dying of
the beard, you've got a little bit of gray?
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Yeah in your beard? Not much, thanks, I see some
gray in that beard. Yeah, well, but I mean, like
you're in your forties, you should have a little bit
of gray in the beard. Are you with me that
men who die their beard can't be trusted? I don't
think you can.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
I'll never forget a navy seal friend of mine who
said you can't trust a guy over thirty five with
a six pack, which I always thought was really funny.
Oh that's you know, because he's just like his priorities
are wrong. You know his priorities are wrong. Now, I'm
not sure I agree with that. I just thought that
was a funny comment from a very jacked guy who's
been his life working out. I would say, and some
because I know I'm gonna get the fifty eight year
(34:26):
olds with the six packs writing the son. See you
can trust me. Yeah, yeah, we know you're the outlier
dying your beard. I don't. I don't know. I mean, look,
I'm not I don't do it. I wouldn't do it.
Uh not my not my thing. I tend to be clay.
I am kind of militant about being oh natural. In general,
I am opposed. This is a purely aesthetics discussion and people,
(34:50):
you know, have people got a very different aesthetics and
that's fine. It's like artwork or music. You can like
what you like, and that's fine. I do not. I'm
a I'm against like, uh, most of the facial plastic
surgery that women do. I'm again, you know, I actually
like women to have their natural hair color. My wife
is very natural and that's one of the things I
(35:11):
like about her. And as a guy, I kind of
follow the same pattern. Like I'm just not a I
try to avoid the artificial coloring, the artificial everything.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
I just think the beard. You can dye your hair,
no issue with it, whatever, make your own choice. The
beard is designed to be ruggedly masculine. And if you
are dying your beard, I think you're defeating the entire
purpose of the beard. By the way, the stuff that
people get fired up about never ceases to amaze me.
Chris from Pittsburgh is upset with the way that I
described poisonous me.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
I'm sure, I'm sure it was me. I think you
were me. Go ahead, go ahead, Chris. One of us
said it wrong. Clay. It's not poisonous snakes, it's venomous snakes.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
I mean, of all the things that we've said on
the program today, I think that's pretty much synonymous. I
think you understand if I say poisonous versus minimal, I
guess he's saying that if it's poisonous, it would mean
you'd have to eat it. Right, if you ate it
and then it was bad for you, that would be
poisonous versus venomous is that it carries something that is
bad for you. It carries a venom that it can
inject come on some of the things that people get
(36:15):
worked up about. If you understand it, I bet more
people say that snakes are poisonous than venomous.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Nation. I've got and everybody we've done a version of
this question. Before you walk into somebody's house for the
first time, they've invited you over for lunch or whatever,
and you're sitting down for lunch and they say, yeah,
I'm a collector of venomous snakes. Are you like, I
don't really want to be here anymore. I'm leaving.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
I wouldn't be able to sit in the house the
rest of the way because the snakes always escape. Every
single snake ever put in a cage or tank gets away.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
I love you guys. Back Tuesday.
Third hour of Clay and Buck kicks off now, and
I feel like Clay's the guy on the stock market
floor today. I'm like, Clay, tell us what's going on
down there on the floor of the exchange. There's all
the people running around by, So what's the latest.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
The S ANDB five hundred is up for the day,
the up as we speak right now by around point
four percent, and the Dow is down about one hundred
and forty points, So a bit of a split verdict
to there. SMP five hundred obviously the five hundred largest
(00:37):
companies the better approximator of the markets move in general. Meanwhile,
the Dow Jones only thirty companies involved in the Dow
Jones Industrial Index. But basically a day where not much
has happened after actually a lot has happened in terms
of fluctuation. But the end result as we speak to
(01:00):
you with a couple of hours left of trading, is
that Monday has not been a very very crazy outcome
so far relative to the moves that we saw on
Thursday and Friday.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
No one's gonna call this Black Monday, the day that
the stock market was destroyed forever or something, you know,
it's all gonna be okay. You know.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I think what it suggests buck for people out there
is the market was got an unexpected outcome. Trump was
more aggressive on trade than they anticipated. On Wednesday, so
called Liberation Day, Thursday and Friday, the stock market changed
went down quite a lot. Now on Monday, people have
digested it. They've said, okay, we've gotten used to what happened.
(01:44):
The predictions this predictions often are that Monday would be
a cataclysmic day for US stocks have as we speak
to you with two hours left in trading, not proven true.
And again, stock prices are basically the same as where
they were a year ago. In the larger context, it
was on October twenty fourth, nineteen twenty nine that Black
(02:05):
Thursday occurred, and that was the the great crash and
the one that people always refer to so black that's
Black Thursday.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
October twenty fourth, nineteen twenty nine. This is not that,
And people can just relax a little bit. It's gonna
be okay, It's gonna be all right. Trump is dedicated
to this. He bigly knows what the plan is, and
it's just about resetting some things, and that it's gonna
be great. Probably the best economy we've ever seen. Just
(02:38):
gonna take a little time to get there. All right,
a couple of updates to some other stories, and I
want to get to this trans athlete thing more more
female athletes taking a stand or in some cases, I
guess taking a knee. But for the right reason. We'll
get into this. Two things though. One is that we
were just talking about that stabbing story in Texas Clay
and it seems that it just broke as we were
(02:59):
talking about this. I can't say that one led to
the other. But they've pulled the ghost GoFundMe for the
and so I guess they are adhering to the criminal
defense rules. Maybe they got caught though on this one
people pointed out, Hey, you say no criminal defense fundraising
on go fundme, and now that's ended. You have addition
(03:22):
one bit of change there is at Give Send Go
and look team. Can you look up the difference on
what these organizations are. I'm not sure if ghost they're
just variations on the seat. I think they did the
same PLATF same stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Okay, so they are allowing their funding to still occur.
That has raised one hundred and seventy thousand dollars. So
the main one that is go fundme, which a lot
of people know has shut down the ability to raise money.
What I am seeing on give Send Go is that
(03:58):
that has still been allowed to have happen, and that
there has been one hundred and seventy thousand dollars raised
on that platform. The reason why I say Gibson Go,
They're a bunch different of these companies that compete against
each other, and so I don't know if this is
quote unquote a left winging site or what their orders
of fundraising, rules of fundraising are, but they have raised
(04:21):
over one hundred and seventy thousand for this alleged stabber there.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
And just to bring this one full circle too, while
somebody was out hitting three hundred yard drives with the
celebrities last week in the sunshine, having a great old time,
I was here taking grenades in the trenches solo on
that McDonald's dad who left the dad at McDonald's who
(04:46):
left his kids. And then we were all we we
just went on the news story and we said we
needed more facts, and some of you were very skeptical
even the facts initially. And it turns out he wasn't
at a job interview. It was ninety minutes, and they
pulled his GoFundMe and actually refunded everybody their money. He
was not allowed to profit from that one either. So
(05:08):
these sites have gotten a little bit more, a little
more dialed in, a little savvy or on what's going on.
But so yeah, on that one, you know, man, it's
it's just it's interesting, isn't it. He clearly knew that
saying I was going for a job interview, there'd be
a lot of people that there would be sympathy for
his position. Now when you hear he just left the
(05:29):
kids there, and then the mother of the kids was
called to the scene and she was furious about it,
like this guy messed up right, and the cop did
not mess up? Who was there? The cops handled this perfectly,
we did say, I said at the time, just to
be clear, I was like, I do not blame the
cops at all. We need to know exactly what's going
on here, and so we did not jump to blame
police on this one for anything, and for even a
(05:50):
poor judgment call. But we updated that story and uh yeah,
see we're not MSNBC. When a story goes the way
you know, when a story goes in the other direct
from how it might have been trending, we don't go, oh,
let's just move on to something else. Clay, you want
to talk about the trans stuff? Now for a seconds?
Do this is a let's dive into this, shall we?
Here you have John Oliver of Last Week Tonight. John Oliver.
(06:16):
He talks like this all the time, and people on
the left think that that must make him smart. It
does not, in fact, and he doesn't really know anything.
And it's shocking that well, I shouldn't say shocking, but
it's just preposterous that Max still gives this guy the
platform that they do. But he's now joined Neil deGrasse Tyson,
who did this on the Bill Maher Show. He has
(06:37):
joined the other celebrities of the left who say there
is no advantage that men do not have an advantage
over women in sports play sixteen, we.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Expect a certain amount of difference in athletics. Taller basketball
players are expected to compete against shorter ones. Faster soccer
players compete against slow ones. Michael Phelps was allowed to
compete with other swimmers despite being part dolphin, and crucially,
none of the studies I've mentioned so bear much relevance
to what these new laws target, which is youth sports
usually of all ages, and the research there is even
(07:07):
more scants. We have no research about how being transit
undergoing gender filming treatments impacts athletic performance in teams. And
when it comes to kids before the onset of puberty,
I'd argue, when he's talking about seven year olds, as
a practical matter, that's a point where lots of school
sports are co ed anyway, and a key difference between
competitors on a field can come down to whether a
(07:27):
kid was born in October or April.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Okay, forty five minutes on this, and we just played
you a cut of this. I have coached little league
sports in baseball, basketball, soccer, and.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Football flag football.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
In many of those leagues there have been young girls
who played as well. In fact, I have coached young
girls on predominantly boy teams. No one out there is saying, hey,
if you are eleven you want to play boys baseball
and you're really good, or you are nine and you
want to play boys basketball because you're a really good
(08:07):
girls player, that there's anything wrong at all with that,
Because it is true that before puberty, there isn't that
much difference in young kids overall athletic ability. In fact,
on one of my teams, I think our ten U
baseball team, the best player that I coached was a girl.
(08:27):
She was fabulous. Guess what testosterone starts to come in
when boys hit puberty. And as everyone who has coached
young boys knows, the team with the most kids with
the mustaches is going to be the best when you're
like thirteen years old. Whoever hits puberty the fastest, it
is they are bigger, stronger, faster. It is an overwhelming.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Difference testosterum level, especially for young people. It almost functions
the way that steroids for adults do. In fact, professional
body builders they will say that I have friends. I
am clearly not one, but I have friends down in
Miami who are because they're everywhere. Clay went to the
gym down here. He understands this is the most gym
obsessed culture in the United States, bar none, no question,
(09:13):
South Florida like I've been, I've been to gym's in
Beverly Hills. I grew up in New York City. There
is no place that is as obsessed with this stuff.
As South Florida. And if you run, they call it
running tests. If you take exogynous testosterone to a certain
level of functions very much in your body, just like
steroids do I mean in terms of muscle growth, muscle density,
all these sorts of things, and people usually take that
(09:35):
alongside anabolic steroids, and that's how they get so enormously
big and muscular. Bring it up because you know, if
you have a guy that is taking is taking steroids
and a guy who is not, trust me, you know
the difference, and so do they. And if you have
a thirteen year old kid whose body has started to
release the because the pituitary gland is kicked in and
they are releasing the hormones necessary for extra testosterone production,
(09:58):
it is a whole different world, right. The kids with
the mustaches and they aren't pit hair when you're in
the ninth grade, those are the ato Those are the
kids that are like dunking. And the kids that are
maybe a year or two behind that, they still look
like they could be singing in the sixth grade choir.
It's just reality, totally true, totally true.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
And the fact that left wingers have decided that the
hill they want to die on is there's no difference
between men and women when it comes to athletics and
that trans women, which is that is to say, men
who are identifying as women. Riley Gaines asked a good question.
It's one I've been asking for a long time. If
this is true, how come no women who identify as
(10:34):
men are dominating in men's sports, right? Like, if there's
If they're so, why have separate sports at all?
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Correct? Why? That's the even most fundamental question period? Why
why have the most you know, why have Why have
we separated and segregated sports by gender as long as
we have? If what John Oliver says is true, there's
no basis for just that we should just have pants.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Everybody should just compete in organization men and women, which is.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
The destruction of women's sports and women's achievement. You would
not have a single professional female athlete in any sport whatsoever, period,
full stop. You would not have a single D one
female athlete, or D three female athlete, or really high
school of varsity athlete because the men would get all
the spots. So that is reality.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Yeah, So this is supposedly a super smart show, right,
filled with people that think they are smarter than you
and me and everyone else. And his argument basically boils
down to, well, we don't really know if there's any
competitive advantage, and therefore men who identify as women should
be able to compete in women's sports. And anybody who's
(11:42):
arguing otherwise isn't paying attention to the data. They just lie,
and they just lie blatantly. And I think it's important
to share with you what they are producing. This isn't
some off the cuff take. This is a produced, a written,
an entire segment defined as men who identify as women
(12:05):
deserve to play women's sports. And I will reiterate again,
no one out there that I've heard I played. When
I was in the nineteen eighties playing baseball in Goodletsville, Tennessee,
there were girls playing in our league when we were
ten or eleven years old. That's been happening for a
long time. Talented female athletes who want to compete pre puberty,
or even are able to compete post puberty, I have
(12:27):
no issue with they can't because testosterone is reel. Men
are athletically bigger, stronger, and faster than women, which is
why we have divided men and women's sports since time immemorials,
so long as I can remember competition existing.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Why have age differences there are I mean, there are
six there are sixteen year olds. There are fourteen year
olds who are better at I'll just take a sport.
I know, well, I know fourteen year old I know
twelve year olds that have played tennis. You know, I
actually played against like when I was a kid, and
I got absolutely smoked and destroyed by the way. She
was like a top ten Russian thirteen and undergirl and
(13:07):
I was like fifteen, you know, but I was at
a tennis academy and we're you know, you just sort
of play every absolutely destroyed me by the way. And
I'm not a particularly good tennis player, but I'm okay.
But I was several years older and this was a girl.
But does that mean then then we shouldn't have age
you know what I mean? If the best twelve year
old in the world can beat the best well can
beat college players, which is true or at least close
(13:28):
to maybe can beat high school players. Not really college
players could be high school players. Why do we have
age segregation in sports? Yea, see totally true all these arguments.
If it's not always true. They act like it's not true,
and this is the fundamental flaw in their entire argument
that makes the thing just laughable and absurd. But they're
staying on, and you know what, I think, good, stay
(13:49):
on this one. We will continue to make them eat
their cooking on this. We're going to continue to make
them asleep in the bed that they have made on
this on the left of the Democrats because they're insane,
and eighty percent of the country actually knows it, and
sixty percent of the country will vote based on the
fact that this is completely crazy. Let's talk about rapid radios.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
They make modern day walkie talkies the kin you can
use to connect to anyone nationwide if innovated the old
school walkie talkie with new technology. And here's the great
thing about these devices. They connect you to family, friends,
and coworkers anywhere in the US, accessing the nationwide LTE
network via the cell phone towers. With one touch of
a button, you can speak to one person or multiple people.
(14:30):
Rapid radios are great for an older family member that
doesn't like all the complications of a cell phone, or
one of her kids that doesn't want to or one
of your kids that you don't want on the internet.

to have these.

Clay Travis at buck Sexton find them on the free
iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us. By the way, the
group that is allowing this stabber alleged in the Dallas,
Texas area Frisco, Texas to raise money is according to
the Team, a Christian based organization. Give sin Goo, faith
(15:51):
based Christian oriented the number one free Christian crowdfunding site,
often emphasizing prayer and ministry alongside fundraising. I don't know
what their policies are when it comes to defendants in
cases raising money. Maybe it's the case that they allow
anyone to raise money on the site as a Christian process,
(16:15):
It's possible.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I would encourage you guys to do your own research
into this, and I'll ask our staff too. Did they
allow Kyle Rittenhouse to raise money on that page? If
they did, more credit to them because they're at least
applying an even principle. And as long as principles are
applied evenly, I think that is you can agree or
(16:38):
disagree with the principle, but I think that's fair.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
If they are.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Picking and choosing who is allowed to raise money on
their site, though, then that is where I would come
down and say, hey, we need to have a consistent
rule as it pertains to that. By the way, since
we are now the CNBC stock Market, Universe market still
up buck so with a little bit over an hour
(17:02):
and a half to go in today's market, can we
get Jim Kramer saying this was going to be like
the worst Jim every gyp Jim Kramer is the worst
predictor on the planet. He said that this could be
one of the worst days in the history of the
American stock market. And I think it's fair to say
(17:23):
that that is not going to actually materialize, and in fact,
stock prices might well end up up for the day.
Jim Kramer another swinging a miss. As it pertains to
that a lot of you went a weigh in, by
the way, eight hundred and two A two two eight
A two. We'll get into some of your talkbacks and
some of your some of your VIP messages and beyond
(17:43):
all that and more still to come. But I want
to tell you LifeLock right now. The Identity Theft Resource
Center says cybercrime will increase again this year, with tools

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Welcome back into Clay and block talkbacks, phone calls, emails.
Oh my, A big day, A lot going on. Just
an update here. Trump currently negotiating with Japan on the
tariff's issue, and you know he's negotiating. Look, if Trump
said these are the numbers, I'm not backing down on
any of them. This is my word is final, and
(19:11):
you know, no matter what happens, this is then I'd
be like, yeah, that seems a little extreme, little concern.
He's saying, these are the numbers, let's talk about it,
and people are saying, okay, let's talk, and then they're
coming up with better ways to go forward. That's how
negotiation should be, right. Negotiation always involves what do you want?
Speaker 2 (19:28):
What do they want? It's not just everybody's happy. It's
like your favorite Clay from Billions, the show acts. He says,
nobody leaves negotiation happy.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
You know, you get the best you can, and you
hope you leave feeling like it was fair but happy,
you know, happy. He's asking a lot. Let's get some
of our talkbacks here. We got some great ones. AA
listener Katie in Tucson on KNST hosted me last week.
Great station down there, Hi.
Speaker 5 (19:55):
Clean Buck Katie listening on KNST here in Tucson. You guys,
I should try coming back in the middle of summer
when it's one hundred and fifteen degrees outside and it
feels like you're walking into an oven every time you
go out the door.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
I don't know why people keep like yeah, Like, you know,
Montana is beautiful in the summer, but I don't think
i'd like it in January like I'm aware. I'm just
saying I was in April in Tucson. Clay is just beautiful. Yeah,
it's absolutely and it's magic. I think the desert landscape
is amazing. I just don't know. I had nothing but
positive things and feelings about Arizona, but I kept having
(20:31):
people tell me come back in the summer. Well, no,
how about I'll just come when it's perfect. And I
love it here, like I don't know why. The only
funny I got one quick funny thing for you at
the front desk where I was staying. And I was
just there to give a speech and a great organization.
But where I was staying, you know, I'll go to
the front desk and I wanted to get my steps
in because you guys all know that I'm big on
(20:52):
the walk, right, I'm walking, walking, walking cheat code for life.
Why so even when I'm on a vacation or even
when i'm you know, away for the weekend or something,
I want to walk every day and if I don't,
I feel like, you know, I'm not gonna sleep as
well anyway. So there's all these trails, right, and some
of the trails are and they're through the desert, and
some of the trails are like a two hour trail
and some of them are a twelve hour trail. And
(21:13):
there's all these trails that walk right off of the
resort where the event was. And the lady who's showing
me all these things at the concierge, she's being very
helpful and she's, you know, very serious, better job. She's like, well,
you can do this one, and you can do this one,
you can do this one. And I just looked at
her for a second. I said, just give me the
trail where the are no rattlesnakes. And she looks back
at me and she goes, oh, sir, I'm sorry. I
can't guarantee you any of these trails will be free
(21:34):
of rattlesnakes. It's like, oh, that's so nice that you
thought that. I really thought you could do that. That
would have been fun. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
By the way, April is when the rattlers come out again.
So yeah, totally. Did I mention on this show. I
don't think I did. Speaking of snakes on walkways. When
I was in Australia with the family over Christmas New Years,
not this past year or the year before. We were
on a great Ocean Road tour, which was amazing, and
there was a part of it near the beach and
(22:04):
we're walking downstairs and I'm with my middle son and
we stepped right over a dangerous, poisonous snake. Didn't even
see it, like on the walkway. Lara is coming behind us,
my wife sees it.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Freaks out.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
There's probably like one hundred people behind us, like we
never saw it. Deadly Australia is the I think the
poisonous snake capital of the world. Stepped right over the
top of it, never had an issue at all, everybody
else's You look up the hillside from the beach, there
are one hundred people all panicked, stopping on the uh
(22:37):
refusing to move across. And Laura of course coming behind it,
saw it, recognized the danger, totally oblivious to it, just
stepped right over, you know, basically a deadly Australian snake.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Your wife, Your wife trains constantly. She probably has the
reflexes of a mongoose, like I wouldn't worry about around the.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Snake, also thinking that there might be a snake there,
whereas my fourteen and I, you know, a year old,
were just completely oblivious to all danger and as a result,
had no danger at all.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Yeah, it's funny too. They always tell you that rattlers
won't bother you unless you bother them, and I always
think to myself, but there are like hundreds of people
get bitten in Arizona every year because I look this
up because that's the kind of thing that I do.
Were they really messing with the rattler or they just
walking and didn't know there was one there? Right? The
it won't mess with you if you don't mess with it. Well,
(23:28):
if by mess with it you mean walking and not
knowing that it's there. I don't think they were trying
to pick it up, right exactly. Like I don't think
anyone's like, oh, he's my friend, let's be friends with
the rattlesnake. That's probably not a good move. BB listener,
Maryland in Central Pennsylvania, Let's go buck.
Speaker 6 (23:44):
We want to wish you all the best and many
blessings on the arrival of sweet baby James. When my
daughter was pregnant with our grandson, I bought her a
couple of bottles of an old school remedy for fussy
babies called gripe water. There are many varieties for different ailments.
It's easily available on Amazon and some drug stores. It's cheap.
(24:06):
Look into it. You won't regret it.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
I have not heard of this, although I feel like
I heard of it either Gripe water because I get
I get fussy about things.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
For people who don't know, this is the big week.
Wednesday is supposedly the scheduled arrival of your first ever baby,
you and Carrie.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
So by the way, there's just so people are like,
how could you travel when you don't The baby is
really supposed to be due in a in a in
like two plus weeks, but he's a little big. So
the doctor said, we're going to try to, you know,
go a little early, if you catch my drift. So
that's so we're going into the hospital because the baby's
(24:45):
getting a little big, is what we have been told.
You're being induced.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
It's a scheduled delivery, which is why you you will
come on and say, hey, we're scheduled to have the
baby on Wednesday. Possible late tonight you're suddenly in the hospital.
Could happen, but Wednesday is the Wednesday's target date.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
X day. Now we got a listener. It's been too long,
it's been too long since we've had a listener. Just
lighting up Clay over sports Robert in Houston. Oh, I
know where this is going.
Speaker 7 (25:09):
Cc Hey, Clay, what was that you were saying about
Duke going all the way on your bracket? Well as
my Houston Cougars have said, denied, don't you dare count
now my Houston Cougars again.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
We'll see what happens now on Monday night.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Clay is I'm feeling those cougar claws right now from
our huge Houston audience. I'm just saying, Clay, I want
you to listen carefully. Houston fans, You've had an amazing year,
Kelvin Sampson, amazing, incredible coach, phenomenal comeback. Sorry, Duke Fans.
Late last night on Saturday Night, I was watching even
rooting for you because I like to see the upset.
(25:45):
Florida Gators are cutting down the net and hoisting the
championship trophy tonight. They are one and a half point favorite.
Late night, your run is coming to a close, and
the Florida Gators, the best team in the SEC this year,
are going to win the NC DOUBLEA tournament championship title,
and we need to get an update. I think, did
you have Duke in the title game?
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Buck? I think you did. I did. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:08):
I think that as a result, I have won our
bracket challenge. We need to have a final tally because
both of us picked Florida to win the NC DOUBLEA tournament.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Now, how close was it? Though? I think it's going
to be very very close.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
I will will have to figure out the final numbers,
and I could be wrong because I think if Duke
had won, if they hadn't collapsed, you would have won
the bracket challenge based on the numbers that they have
shared with us.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
So Mark, let me down on this one.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Getting out scored nine to zero in the final thirty
five seconds of that game, which was an unprecedented collapse,
unprecedented comeback, whichever way you want to look at it,
both are true. As a result, I think put me
into the winners bracket no matter what happens, because neither
of us picked Houston. But again, I'm sorry, Cougar fans,
love the city of Houston, love everybody all around there.
(26:58):
But unfortunately for you, your magical run comes to a
close and the Florida Gators are going to win this.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Wait a second, Wait a second, you're you're doubling down
on this. Now. Are Houston people among our most loyal
and beloved massive audiences in any city in this country? Clay,
and you are just provoking the ire of Houstonian.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
For me to antagonize them. But they're wrong. Their team
is going to lose and Florida will win. You can
clip this. I'm gonna play it tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
You know what? You know what? You know what? Clay?
How about this? Oh no, mynd what is she listening?
She's not hearing this. I'm she's not. I don't think
she can hear this. Well, it is technically rebroadcast on podcasts.
So there's that for our brad are we are we
one game apart on the bracket challenge? Because I want
to say, if.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Your answer, do you want to flip to Houston? I'm
gonna flip because I love our Houston audience. I believe
in Actually, no, I can't because Florida. I live in Florida.
I love Florida.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
I mean, so, I thought it was interesting that you
would go at your wife's all player and your home state.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Yeah, that's a bad week, when a bad move when
the baby's coming this week too. No, no, no, sorry, sorry.
I love you, Houston, but I can't do it. I
got so close, you.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Teased, you antagonized, you teased, and then you stepped away
at the last time.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I have to step away from that one.
Speaker 5 (28:12):
You know.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
It's like when I tried to do the shuffle dance
on TikTok. I saw a couple of videos and I
was like, you know what, nobody should ever see this.
So the staff is going to take Houston so they
can make fun of us tomorrow. We are both still
staying strong on Florida. Sorry Gators that I wavered for
a second. I saw you in the water swimming toward
me and I got worried. So but yes, the staff
is going to take Houston. We are going to take
(28:33):
the Gators for the big game tomorrow. All right.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
I've got picks for you too, for price picks on
the big game tonight. Are you ready? This is the
perfect tease. Let's do this, get to it all right.
These picks all going to happen tonight.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
All right.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
This is a little bit nearly three to one. This
will pay off. So if you put in five dollars,
you'll get back a little bit short of fifteen. You
put in one hundred dollars, you'll get back a little
bit short of three hundred. Okay, Walter Clayton Junior, that
is the star guard of the Florida Gators. More than
fourteen and a half points, all right. This is a
(29:09):
golden sorry, a blue gold diamond, blue and blue blue
diamond that is next to these. That means you click
more on these. LJ Cryer more than one and a
half threes made, Elijah Martin more than one and a
half threes made, and Emmanuel Sharp. These are Florida and
Houston players. More than one and a half three is made.
(29:31):
It'll be posted at Clay and Buck. If you didn't
get to get to write all that down, all of
these that is nearly a triple. You can go and
get fifty bucks when you play five dollars right now.
You can play in Bucks home state of Florida. You
can play in Georgia Atlanta Braves by the way, one
in eight o. What a tough start. You can play
(29:52):
in Texas, you can play in California. All of these
places you can go. Get signed up right now. Pricepicks
dot Com Code Clay that is the pick for the
national title game tonight between the Florida Gators and the
Houston Cougars. Florida is going to win, but you can

(30:12):
Houston fan, by playing along pricepicks dot Com Code Clay.
That is, pricepicks dot Com Code Clay.

The Team forty seven podcast Sunday's at noon Eastern in

iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. All right,
our good buddy. Jim Kramer CNBC. He said on Friday,
Monday was going to be basically a stock market apocalypse.
As we sit here with a little bit over one
hour left in trading, the S and P five hundred
up a small amount, the Dow down a small amount.
(30:57):
I think it's fair to say this prediction is going
to continue. The Kramer, which is whatever he says, do
the exact opposite.
Speaker 8 (31:04):
Listen, the President doesn't try to reach out and board
these countries and companies that play by the rules. In
the nineteen eighty seven scenario, the one where we went
down three days and then down twenty two percent on Monday,
has the most cogency. We will not have to wait
out too or willing we'll know by Monday.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Fortunately, we had an excellent set of employment numbers.
Speaker 8 (31:20):
Say at least it makes it less likely a crash
will necessarily lead to a resession. But if President Trump
stays in transgent and does nothing to amiliate the damage
that I saw these last two days, I'm not going
to be constructive here. I will contain my anger, but
only because I lived through eighty seven and in the
end I came out Okay, I was seeing cash for
the crash.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
I know what this feels like.
Speaker 8 (31:40):
Oh and if Europe moves against our fabulous tech companies
next week, then I will be furious that, I promise you,
because it should not happen.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Okay, so it has not actually occurred, and unless something
crazy happens in the next hour, in fact, the reverse Cramer,
we may end up with the stock market up.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
Couple of callers, buck, can I give you a fun
VIP real quick here? I like this. This is one
from our VIP emailers. Thank you so much VIPs, Alan
writes I always get a kick out of you guys
talking about Ted Cruz's beard. Every guy, even a guy
that shaves every day, can appreciate a man that can
grow such a well crafted beard. Senator Cruz's beard is
(32:20):
a sight to behold. I believe it is close to
kevlar level density. Most men can only dream of such
facial hair density. Alan well played. I'll just tell you
clean shaven Ted Cruz. You want him checking your math homework.
You probably want to partner with him in the science lab.
Bearded Ted Cruz, he could probably lasso a steer for you,
(32:42):
help you in a bar fight. I'm just saying, bearded
Ted Cruz, clean shaven Ted Cruz, it's a whole different deal.
It's like Spider Man before the you know, the radioactive
spider bite, and after, it's just a different deal.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
I haven't asked you this question, so people may be
able to tell on video my beard for some reason,
and I would love to hear from people what the
what the biology is on this. Your beard for men
typically goes gray before the hair, that is like the
gray beard thing. Do you agree with me that men
(33:16):
who dye their beards are completely untrustworthy? Like I'm gonna
let my beard go full white whenever it might happen.
I am not going to be You're not gonna see
me with like a just for men brush, like trying.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
To fool all of you.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
And someday I'm gonna come back in and it's gonna
be like midnight dark, and you're gonna be like, wait
a minute, what happened.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I think I'm gonna go gray hair too. I'm not
gonna color my hair.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
But the beard, to me is dying your beard is
like defeats the whole purpose of having a beard in
the first place.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Are you with me on this that the dying of
the beard, you've got a little bit of gray?
Speaker 2 (33:50):
Yeah in your beard? Not much, thanks, I see some
gray in that beard. Yeah, well, but I mean, like
you're in your forties, you should have a little bit
of gray in the beard. Are you with me that
men who die their beard can't be trusted? I don't
think you can.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
I'll never forget a navy seal friend of mine who
said you can't trust a guy over thirty five with
a six pack, which I always thought was really funny.
Oh that's you know, because he's just like his priorities
are wrong. You know his priorities are wrong. Now, I'm
not sure I agree with that. I just thought that
was a funny comment from a very jacked guy who's
been his life working out. I would say, and some
because I know I'm gonna get the fifty eight year
(34:26):
olds with the six packs writing the son. See you
can trust me. Yeah, yeah, we know you're the outlier
dying your beard. I don't. I don't know. I mean, look,
I'm not I don't do it. I wouldn't do it.
Uh not my not my thing. I tend to be clay.
I am kind of militant about being oh natural. In general,
I am opposed. This is a purely aesthetics discussion and people,
(34:50):
you know, have people got a very different aesthetics and
that's fine. It's like artwork or music. You can like
what you like, and that's fine. I do not. I'm
a I'm against like, uh, most of the facial plastic
surgery that women do. I'm again, you know, I actually
like women to have their natural hair color. My wife
is very natural and that's one of the things I
(35:11):
like about her. And as a guy, I kind of
follow the same pattern. Like I'm just not a I
try to avoid the artificial coloring, the artificial everything.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
I just think the beard. You can dye your hair,
no issue with it, whatever, make your own choice. The
beard is designed to be ruggedly masculine. And if you
are dying your beard, I think you're defeating the entire
purpose of the beard. By the way, the stuff that
people get fired up about never ceases to amaze me.
Chris from Pittsburgh is upset with the way that I
described poisonous me.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
I'm sure, I'm sure it was me. I think you
were me. Go ahead, go ahead, Chris. One of us
said it wrong. Clay. It's not poisonous snakes, it's venomous snakes.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
I mean, of all the things that we've said on
the program today, I think that's pretty much synonymous. I
think you understand if I say poisonous versus minimal, I
guess he's saying that if it's poisonous, it would mean
you'd have to eat it. Right, if you ate it
and then it was bad for you, that would be
poisonous versus venomous is that it carries something that is
bad for you. It carries a venom that it can
inject come on some of the things that people get
(36:15):
worked up about. If you understand it, I bet more
people say that snakes are poisonous than venomous.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Nation. I've got and everybody we've done a version of
this question. Before you walk into somebody's house for the
first time, they've invited you over for lunch or whatever,
and you're sitting down for lunch and they say, yeah,
I'm a collector of venomous snakes. Are you like, I
don't really want to be here anymore. I'm leaving.
Speaker 2 (36:37):
I wouldn't be able to sit in the house the
rest of the way because the snakes always escape. Every
single snake ever put in a cage or tank gets away.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
I love you guys. Back Tuesday.
