A
Welcome in, everybody, to the Thursday edition, second hour of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show. And we have a government shutdown on the horizon, everybody. Government shutdown could happen. Oh, boy. All their shutdown. Oh, no. Oh, my gosh. What are we going to do? It could happen this Friday, I think is when we're talking about this, right? Isn't that the latest? Yeah, we're just letting you know we're watching it. We'll see. There'll be a bunch of stuff going on in Capitol Hill. Also today, Tom Homan having a really strong showing at this press conference. We want to get to that with you in a little bit, but we had a really interesting call if he's still with us. Because I gotta say this, to me, this is one of those moments. The Duke lacrosse case, I understand it was a long time ago, and like I said, Stephen Miller was on cable news as a college student standing up for these kids. So it's amazing how the world turns and life comes full circle. But we have a guy who says he is from Durham, North, North Carolina, and was a detective. Well, I'll let him tell us. John, you're calling in from Durham, North Carolina, what's going on?
- [01:13]
C
Yes, sir. I just want to say I was not involved in the case. I was assigned to the security detail on the day when Ms. Mangum actually admitted that she had made it all up. And that day there were members on, if I could say the name or not, but of the New Black Panther Party that was there marching and complaining. And then once you said that, and people in the courtroom, they didn't apologize to Duke students that were accused, they just got up and left.
- [01:44]
B
What was the. That story in 2006, I think is maybe the beginning of identity politics. It was a pre social media era. I can't even imagine what that case would have been like in a social media era. But how long did that stretch on what was that like, being a detective involved in any way in that area during that entire process?
- [02:09]
C
I will tell you that some of my fellow detectives, and especially the lead detectives in that, as well as some of the assistant district attorneys handling that, they had a lot of, for lack of better words, PTSD because of that, because they had been accused and of all these things and being racist and all this, that and the other. And when the truth came out, it was like, no apologies. It was just like, okay, those that.
- [02:40]
A
Were you hearing, were you hearing from your colleagues in Durham law enforcement that, you know, before it became like you said, the woman came out in court and just said she made the whole thing up. But there were. And I remember the prosecutor's name was. Was Mike Nifong. Were the law enforcement officers that were your, you know, your comrades down in Durham, were they all pretty much aware that this was like a hoax or was there a lot of. Well, we got to wait and see. We don't know.
- [03:11]
C
It was more wait and see what comes out in court. Yeah. Like the evidence speak for itself.
- [03:17]
A
Oh, well, John, thank you for calling in. Interesting voice from the past on this one. But Clay, that was also. There are some moments where I remember just being thinking to myself, like, I, I'm. I'm conservative or I'm right wing or whatever. And that was one of them. I remember I was, I. I was dating a young, young lady at the time, and she got very angry at me when she found out that I did not believe that accuser at all. So that, that caused a big fight. And I was like, well, I believe in reality. And all the things that I'm hearing about this do not match up with reality.
- [03:53]
B
So there, you know, it's one of the biggest failures in the history, I think, of. Of the entire investigative proceedings ever.
- [04:03]
A
Right.
- [04:03]
B
I mean, to have the case go to the point. Remember, they shut down the entire team season. They. And again, this is. I feel like a lot of people have forgotten about this story, but to me, it really kind of represented the beginning of identity politics taking over sports because it was, I think, two black strippers alleged these awful series of crimes by.
- [04:27]
A
They alleged gang rape by a bunch of white Duke lacrosse players. A gang rape. That was what. That was what the allegation was.
- [04:34]
B
And then they charged all these guys and many of them weren't even there. Right. I mean, like the evidence.
- [04:39]
A
They had one of them a few miles away at an ATM machine and they knew it and they didn't care.
- [04:45]
B
And so all of this was based on the fact that they were black women and these were white men. And this was just. The New York Times leaned in on it. I don't even know what settlement those guys got, but it was one of. I imagine it had to be tens of millions of dollars that those people who were alleged to have committed the crimes. God, and I give credit to him. I think ESPN did a really good documentary on this case. The. One of the spokespeople for the, for the Duke lacrosse team, one of the players came out and said, I believe the phrase was. There was a series of fantastic Lies. When they arraigned them at the courtroom, I mean, they were as outspoken as they could possibly be. It's one of the greatest miscarriages of justice ever. And what I would say in general is if a story completely fits your narrative worldview, and I would even put it in the context of this ridiculous thing that we saw with Elon Omar the other day. I am very skeptical when the best thing that could happen to someone is a crime and the crime happens to them. Like, remember about Jussie Smollett? Being a racial and sex victim in that manner would have been the greatest thing that could have ever happened to his career ever. When the best thing that could ever happen to your career is you're a victim of a crime and you allege you were a victim of a crime. My alarm belts just go off skeptically in this case. I mean, from the get go, it just didn't add up.
- [06:13]
A
Also, Duke University turned on the students right away. The student body at Duke turned on the students right away. They fired the coach, I believe Clay. I mean, think about that. No one thought the coach. The coach didn't do anything. The coach wasn't. You know, the coach isn't at the.
- [06:27]
B
At the strip team. They shut down the team this season. They didn't get to play. All based on these stripper lies. I mean, it's crazy.
- [06:38]
A
Honestly. It's one of the. One of the worst things that any. Any university has. Has done in the 21st, 21st century with regard to the identity politics stuff. There's a. It was a huge, huge national case. New York Times. If you go back and read the editorials, by the way, not. I'm sorry, the news coverage, not just the editorials. It's just dripping with the sanctimonious lib, like white, you know, privilege and. And a story of race and class clashing on the Duke University campus and all this sort of. Sort of stuff. And it's like. Or you could look at the evidence which made it very clear that these kids didn't do anything.
- [07:13]
B
Or you could do that would have collapsed faster. In a social media age with so many people able to dive into the evidence play, I think it would have played out.
- [07:23]
A
I think you almost has to. You almost have to break up social media into like a BC ad. By the way, it's not BCE ade Don't ever fall for. And that tells you a lot. If anyone uses that stuff. Commoner. It's like before X and after X acquisition, right? There's like the. There's the pre Elon, the pre Elon social media era was an absolute, you know, communist tilted propaganda funhouse, really. I mean, we could operate in it at some capacity, but when things got really hot, they would always just make sure that their side was winning. Now. Yeah, I think now that you would have a really big problem trying to suppress that. That's why Elon doesn't get enough credit for this, by the way. Elon and Trump are buddies again. I told you that would happen. Remember when they had their little tiff, we came here just. I don't think we get enough credit. We tell you things and then they come true. Like 99% of the time, not, not talking about predicting who's going to win an election. That's always, you know, that's always a coin flip. But when you're looking at issues like this that require you to understand the personalities involved, people like Elon, it's all destroyed with him and Trump. No, it's not. It's going to be fine. All right? They had a little thing, Elon and Trump. You're talking about two guys whose egos could withstand multiple nuclear strikes and they'd be fine.
- [08:38]
B
All right?
- [08:39]
A
These guys are. They're going to be just fine. And, you know, I think that Elon doesn't get enough credit even to this day, Clay, for changing, really, Internet culture, because there just needed to be one. There needed to be one. The Democrats are still scrambling. We see them scrambling even with the pretty thing. Why do you think they have to run so fast and tell the stories as quickly as they do? Because they know that they've only got a short window before they're getting mocked for lying about stuff. So they have to hammer it so fast right away every time.
- [09:10]
B
Yeah. And I think this also, you know, kind of ties in with the grok, which we have talked about. I really do believe, and not a lot of people are talking about this, that AI is going to be in terms of just providing information. I think it's going to be so utterly important what the feed is to provide that information. And GROK has completely changed the game. All we needed was one algorithm that just was down the middle of the road. And GROK will give you data that frankly, Chat GPT won't. I asked the question of grok and I would encourage you to go check it out. You know, just getting basic racial data on crimes. Who is committing murders, who is dying of murders, from a racial perspective, if you want to look at it, a lot of chatgpt won't do it because they're afraid of what the data shows. Grok is trying to just give you the truth and let you react to it. And I think that is we are going to see in the decades ahead that Elon buying Twitter was a huge win for the marketplace of ideas on a level that I don't think buck people are really even grappling with yet in terms of how much of a difference it has made. Um, by the way, your boy, I was going to play this. We'll get into Tom Homan too. Your boy Scarborough said. We're talking about things that are going to echo for decades. Your boy Scarborough said, I think 20 years from now, our kids and grandkids are going to be looking back as a defining moment in the country's history. Alex Preddy being shot. Did you see this? Cut 20. Joe Scarborough, maybe the wrongest man in media.
- [11:03]
D
Listen, friends, probably 90% of them probably voted for Donald Trump. And something happened this past week where even they would see what the DHS was saying, what Christine was saying about a 37 year old man who got looked like an execution to me, executed in the streets of America a few weeks ago. A 37 year old woman whose final words were I'm not mad at you. And he shot her at point blank range through her window twice and killed her. I think 20 years from now our children and grandchildren are going to be looking back and this is going to be a defining moment. And I will say, you know, I hope and I pray that the president and the people around him use this moment to understand that things have been pushed too far. They need to start bringing this country together.
- [11:49]
A
Nope, incorrect.
- [11:52]
B
I think in a week nobody's going to be talking about Alex already. I tell you right now, as soon as that video came out of Alex Peretti yelling at kicking the tail lights out, screaming curse words at the ice agents and spitting on them, it vanished. I mean, I'm telling you right now, they're not talking about him on msnbc, they're not talking about him on cnn. It just is like that story never happened, Clay.
- [12:18]
A
It vanished. Like on MSNBC when there's a mass shooting and they find out the guy was yelling Allahu Akbar all of a sudden gotta talk about sports or something else. Like they gotta move on to something else. Not something they want to get into. So there you go.
- [12:31]
B
So it is true. My mother in law pointing out they're not playing the video. You know, the story is bad for Democrats when suddenly CNN and msnbc, they move on to a New story and just pretend that Alex Preddy didn't exist.
- [12:43]
A
We. We gotta play. You know, the thing is, you need the visual too, so maybe it won't work as well on radio. That's one of the frustrations that we can have of it, which is also why you should subscribe. Subscribe on our YouTube channels. You can watch these things afterwards or you can watch the video of it. But have you seen the side by side kind of inter.
- [12:57]
B
Inter.
- [12:57]
A
Inter.
- [12:59]
B
Elizabeth Warren.
- [13:00]
A
Of Elizabeth Warren, being like, pretty was the absolute, the greatest human being. The most kind, loving, warm. And you could see him, like, kicking the car like, spittle coming out of his mouth. F bombs dropping, like, punching at the cops like, she's like.
- [13:16]
B
Never would have heard a fly.
- [13:18]
A
Just believed in. And putting milk in little saucers for kitty cats in the neighborhood.
- [13:24]
B
It's.
- [13:24]
A
It's incredible. If you haven't seen it, it really is good. I'm just telling you. Maybe we could, well, at least pull that audio for you so you could hear it and just think about the video. If you haven't. By the way, do we have the video up at Clay and Buck? Just to make it easy, people find. We should probably put the pretty video up@clayandbuck.com so people can see it. Because once you see it, you'll just go, okay, yeah, there still needs to be an investigation of the shooting. I'm not even saying it justifies the shooting. I'm just saying the guy's a maniac and he brought this on himself. That's what happens.
- [13:50]
B
It's 100% true. He wanted a confrontation. He was seeking it for weeks. And he's mentally unstable. And I mean, how many times you ever seen somebody spit on somebody else and thought, you know what? This is a good human. Like, spitting is just such a nasty thing to do, to even think to.
- [14:05]
A
Do to spit on someone. I. You have a mind meld within here. I had the exact same. Your first thing is to spit at somebody. If you spit at somebody like that, you're trash. It's a trash move.
- [14:23]
B
It really is. I just. I can't ever remember seeing anybody spit and thought, hey, you know, that's the good guy. The spitter is. I mean, it's just such a nasty, vile thing to eat.
- [14:33]
A
It's like being a guy who tries to scratch another guy's eyes, you know, like, yeah, like. Like, what are you doing?
- [14:37]
B
I would rather be pulling punched, I think, than spit on. Like. It's just President's Day started as a remembrance of George Washington's birthday by 1971. It also included President Lincoln this President's Day. Pure Talks, remembering Washington, but putting their focus on Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Jackson. Andrew Jackson, our seventh president. That's because the monthly cost of Pure Talk is just a Jackson and a Lincoln. $25 a month to start. They'll give you unlimited talk text and plenty of data. That's a Jackson and a Lincoln. Now compare that to what you have to spend for the big wireless companies, where you're likely to spend a whole lot more. Save those Benjamin Franklins for another day. PureTalk is an American wireless company, one that supports our veterans and invests in a US Only customer service team. So when you call, you're talking to someone right here in the good old usa. Pure Talk uses the same towers as the big carriers. You can enjoy superior 5G coverage without the inflated price. Just 25 bucks a month for talk text. Plenty of data, no contracts, no cons, cancellation fee. Just dial £250, say the keywords clay and buck. You get 50 off your first month. Again, £250, say clay and Buck. To save a bundle on pure talk, that's £250, say clay and Buck. Stories of freedom, stories of America. Inspirational stories that unite us all. Each day, spend time with Clay and Buck. Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcast. Welcome back and play Travis Buck Sexton Show. We got a call, Bob, in Moscow, Russia. We appreciate you listening. Around the world. We can legitimately say that we should have a day where people only call in from other countries where they're listening. That would be fun. You got to take and I think it's right, Bob, on the mental health issues here when it comes to pretty good.
- [16:39]
C
So I am pretty sure that Mr. Freddie had a psychiatric issue and should have not have ever been near any patients. He was probably indoctrinated with all leftist talk, no different than the Jonestown Massacre or David Crush in the Branch Davidians. And also, if he had a broken rib, chances are he was on a narcotic painkiller and should not have been driving a vehicle or in control of a firearm.
- [17:07]
B
I don't disagree, Buck. This is kind of what your book's about, but they have created this world. And by the way, let me just say this one Elon Musk just retweeted Buck Sexton responding. Elon just retweeted you as we're talking right now. He said that they're cruel hypocrites, responding to the fact that People won't deal with this South Carolina woman, which we will go into maybe during the course of the program and the way that they choose what to respond to and what not to respond to. Natalie Portman, also named there. So now Elon, Elon Musk coming in. Natalie Portman is going to be trending soon. Have no idea what started because Bach is just taking a two by four. To my poor Natalie.
- [17:52]
A
I just speak the truth, you know, wherever it leads us. That's, that's the mission here. The truth, wherever it goes. The talent of the Towers foundation honors America's heroes and their families when tragedy strikes. Heroes like Scott Abrams. For more than three decades, Scott served his community and country as a United States Marine, a New York City police detective and a volunteer firefighter. While he was on his NYPD motorcycle escorting the funeral procession from a four year old child, his life changed in an instant. Scott was hit by a bus, crushing four vertebrae in his neck and leaving him partially paralyzed. Scott's recovery was grueling. Through unwavering love, strength and perseverance, Scott, his wife Tara and their son Joshua made it through unimaginable challenges. Tunnel to Towers Honored Scott and his family with a mortgage free smart home. Thanks to supporters like you, Scott now has a home he can move freely in as he heals and raises his family with dignity. More heroes are waiting and in need of assistance. Honor their sacrifices now join us in donating $11 a month. Tunnel the towers@t2t.org that's t the number 2t.org. All right, welcome back into clay. And was it me or was it you?
- [18:59]
B
You got it.
- [18:59]
A
Sorry we're thrown off here for seconds. We just got the double tap from Elon. I got retweeted, then Clay got retweeted back to back. So boom. Like a SpaceX launch into the stratosphere. Go with dimensions now. It's going to be quite a day online for the two of us now with Elon. How many. What does he have, like 100,000,000,000 followers?
- [19:17]
B
I just looked 230 million followers on X. Kind of a big number.
- [19:23]
A
Nice that it's. Do you still have that weird like photo of you standing in front of the mural of hate or is that what.
- [19:29]
B
Yeah, I haven't, I haven't changed. I'm not very technologically savvy. I don't know how like my iPhone is just the standard like green granite backdrop. Like I don't even. I don't know how to do anything. So I haven't changed my Photos. I haven't done anything in a long time.
- [19:45]
A
Do we also. We need to get a Lara. We need to get a Lara. Judgment call on the full mustache situation for you, buddy. Okay? We need to know that this is going to be all right, not put any strain on your marriage. Because I think, I think you're going to look very Magnum PI Personally. And I think the Midwestern middle aged ladies of America who I have seen, I'm just saying this to you folks, I have seen Clay get manhandled at live events by great an Ethel, if.
- [20:11]
B
You know what I mean.
- [20:11]
A
You know, they get, they move the fanny pack aside and they get those hips real close to the Clayster when it comes to taking some photos with the fans and maybe some pinching, you know, maybe a little pinch on the cheek. Maybe a little pinch. You know, I'm just saying it happens.
- [20:25]
B
Grandma's grandmas can get handsy with me. And I'm going to be, I'm going to, to a bar and bat mitzvah. I'm not the, the, the performer on Saturday. My wife, you thought for a minute, man, that'd be a heck of a, heck of a kid if they were like, you know who I want showing up to entertain everybody? Clay Travis. I'm going to a bar and a bat Mitzvah. They're twins, kids, and it's good friends of my wife for a long time. And I don't know a lot of the people, a lot of the people there. And I haven't asked Laura yet what the reaction would be if I showed up with just a crazy mustache at this bar in bat mitzvah where I don't know anybody. And frankly, I'm not sure. There's a huge number of Clay and Buck fans, to be fair, in the crowd. So I, I don't know that the grandmas of America are going to be lining up at this thing and.
- [21:20]
A
So you're at a bar bat Mitzvah. Yeah, dude, I can, I can tell you. Let, let me just, let me just fill you in on something for a second here. Speaking for the Miami Beach Boca, like West Palm Delray corridor here, right wing Jews love, love us, love this show.
- [21:38]
B
Okay? This is Michigan, so I don't, I just, I don't know anybody at the crew. I don't know anything about the politics of the crew. I've never been, it's probably a bit weird that I'm 46 and I've never been to a bar in bat mitzvah before. And I now am.
- [21:54]
A
We can even get someone to call it. I'm telling you, you'd get manhandled by the Jewish grandmas of Boca. They love. They are. They are.
- [22:00]
B
Well, we have a hole in Michigan. Do you people think that are up in Michigan? Do you think that I'm going to be well received? I don't know. I don't know what I'm walking into the. I would, I. But I was saying with a mustache. There's a middle aged guy showing up with a crazy mustache from Tennessee. I don't know that I'm going to be beloved here. So I'm asking, I got to ask my wife if I can do the must. I know I'm doing the mustache for Super Bowl.
- [22:23]
A
So in that much. She's very busy with granny dudes. She weighed in yesterday because, because I was actually FaceTiming her with.
- [22:30]
B
With speed.
- [22:30]
A
You know, I was like doing the. I was babysitting last. Why are you not supposed to say babysitting when it's your kid? I've heard people say this. What do you mean? I'm in charge of the kid?
- [22:38]
B
Yeah.
- [22:38]
A
This is totally nonsense.
- [22:40]
B
They started saying this like, there's just a lot of angry women. Go figure. I know this is not going to stun anybody out of the audience. And they look for reasons to get offended. I said weather, weather girl the other day on Twitter and so many people, there's a weatherman and weather woman. It sounds like Wonder Woman. It's an extra syllable. It doesn't sound very good. So there was that funny clip and it was like, this is a weather girl. And people were like, this is so disrespectful. And I'm like, how is it disrespectful?
- [23:08]
A
So you guys should hear Clay off the air. He's like that weather dame.
- [23:11]
B
Let me tell you that I did I, I would always say to me, when dad is left alone with the child and mom is not there, dad is babysitting. I don't think that's like offensive to women. But this has turned into a thing where it's like, you're the dad. You don't ever babysit. You parent.
- [23:30]
A
It's like, okay, I know it's annoying. I, I, I refuse, I refuse to, I refuse to sign on to that. That's garbage. People. Everyone knows, whether it's Carrie or me or anyone, if you're the one in charge of the baby, you're babysitting whether it's your kid or somebody else. I'm not the babysitter, but I Am babysitting you solo.
- [23:47]
B
I think you're babysitting. Like, I don't understand why that's like a controversial idea. But they've tried to change. People not having kids have changed the language because they're offended by the language for parents.
- [24:01]
A
Yeah. Don't even get me started on cat sitting. You got to be very specific. She says that she likes my Miami. You know, my Miami swoop now. So, Clay, you know, we're, we're styling over here, buddy. We are on the cutting edge. You might be mustache men. I've got a, like a Miami fade going. We're, we're cool. We're two cool guys in our own way.
- [24:25]
B
My 15 year old saw your hair and he was like, that's a cool haircut. Now, I don't know, boy, you didn't tell, but I don't know.
- [24:33]
A
You didn't even tell me this before.
- [24:34]
B
Well, do you want 15 year olds being like, you got a great haircut. I don't know if it's a huge compliment or not. Like, you're the 15 year old.
- [24:41]
A
Oh, yeah. That means I'm in the zeitgeist, baby. I'm cool. No unk over here. There's only one, only one unk side of this radio equation. Everybody. I got cool. I got cool 15 year old kid approved hair.
- [24:55]
B
Now, my 15 year old son hopped in the Instagram mentions to come after me for the phrasing that I was using and using it incorrectly and called me an unk in the comments. And so he loves the hair and, and yeah, this is funny. Graham just wrote in, will Clay please pledge to not wear Magnum PI shorts along with the Magnum PI mustache. You know, I, I think when the next time I'm in Miami, I know that what Magnum PI Was set in Hawaii, right? But, but I think with the mustache, I'll have to go full, you know, flower shirt, old school. I'm, I'm just going to lean completely into it as if it's 1984.
- [25:39]
A
Look, if you're driving around in a vintage Ferrari Testarossa, I think you're allowed to wear whatever shorts you want. You still look cool. So there's that. There's that point, you know, it helps. So, VIP email from Sissy. My husband and three sons all have beautiful beards. Not struggle beards like your dad, Clay. Buck, you have a baby face. Carrie is 100% right. Keep your beard, Clay. Fulfill your lost bet, but instantly grow your beard back. A little silver going through a beard is gorgeous, Clay. She wants you to go back to being the Jolly Saint Nick character of a week or two ago. What's. What's going on here?
- [26:17]
B
I. Well, this was the challenge that I got into. It was that the beard goes gray. My hair is still pretty dark. I don't do hair dye or any of that stuff.
- [26:26]
A
This is. This is standard. I have a little gray in my beard, too, so this happens.
- [26:30]
B
So the beard goes great for most people before the hair does. And. And so I had to grow the beard out. I haven't trimmed my beard since December 19th, when we went off the air for Christmas. And so it's gotten pretty bushy here, but I lost my bet on the amount of snow that was going to fall. So I'm just deciding. I think I'm going to do it on Sunday. I think on Monday, you guys. I don't know if we have the video set up, because I'm going to be in California, but on Monday, I will be back to. I will have a mustache, and I'll look like Magnum PI Hopefully.
- [27:04]
A
Do we get President's Day off, by the way? I'm thinking about this. I'm like, wait a second. We don't. Right? We work on President.
- [27:10]
B
We work on. On MLK Day, President's Day. There's some of these, like, sort of borderline holiday.
- [27:17]
A
Juneteenth. We work Juneteenth.

We definitely work Juneteenth. We don't work July 4th. It's probably super racist of us. And then we don't work Labor Day every other holiday. Like, what's the one in October? Columbus Day or Indigenous People's Day, if you're a loser. We work that one, too.
- [27:36]
A
Isn't it kind of mean to call it Indigenous People's Day because it's, like, commemorating their loss? You know what I'm saying? Yeah. It would be like if you lost the super bowl. And then every year you had to be reminded of that time you got your ass kicked in the Super Bowl.
- [27:49]
B
Well, it'll be like if. It would be like if England had a Revolutionary War Remembrance Day in their country. There we go. Yeah, it used to be in the south, they used to have Confederate Memorial Day, which, you know, it's tough. Tough l. There for the South. So that was. I don't think that holiday is very popular anymore. But. But it was.

We've got VIP email from Len Clay. Last time I shaved my beard off, my two plus toddler oldest daughter wandered. Wandered into the bathroom and cried. So I never did it again. That was 1983. So keep it going, guys. I will say speed. My son, he definitely likes to grab the little scraggly patchy facial hair that I have. And I feel like he's figured like this mommy, daddy, that's probably one of the main. I mean mommy is just much prettier. But also mommy doesn't have all the facial hair. So I feel like it's one of.

The first things young kids kind of recognize with the beard and is the difference between mom and a dad. Unless. Yeah, I mean I. Hopefully your wife and nobody's wife out there has a bushy beard. That's a tough look. But if they're Democrats, they might. That's the way they roll now, by the way, this is interesting, interesting news that's just coming down. We were talking about Xai and Grok and everything else. SpaceX, which is the fabulously successful Elon Musk company is supposedly going to now merge with Xai. So if that is true, then Elon Musk has got a unbelievable colossus that he has constructed because Xai owns Twitter, which owns SpaceX, which owns Xai. If all of those companies are rolling together, Buck, I don't think it's crazy to say that might become one of the biggest companies in the world and it would be focused on technology across the entire spectrum. That's. Anyway, this is what is just being reported as we are talking brought it up because we were talking about Elon double retweeting us in the last five minutes about this story which we should talk about in South Carolina which almost nobody is going to discuss.
- [29:54]
A
Yeah, we'll come back. We'll get into this coming up here in the third hour for sure. Also want to take more of your calls, your grooming tips, your thoughts on my cool Cuban American South Florida haircut. You can see it's got a little swoop, little shape to it or Clay's old man white beard which gives him.
- [30:13]
B
I could probably Santa Claus esque by the time we get to I. I don't think there's any doubt if I kept this going by did an added job of Santa Claus.

A
Have you ever you do you know this photo? I mean I would know it because of what I used to the photo of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed where he just let it rip. Gitmo, he's got the ch. I want you to go full ksm. I want you to let that beard where it looks so big, it looks like you're wrestling a Chia Pet with your face. You know what I mean? Like you gotta just let it go, buddy.
- [30:45]
B
I mean, Laura's not. Poor Laura, like, you know, she's good looking and she's got this beast of a ridiculous looking husband that she's got to walk around with. So I've got to get, I've got to get her approval.
- [30:56]
A
Look, far be it for me to speak for Laura. It's a bad idea. However, however, I think she might say that she likes the stash when she sees it. I, I think we may have, we got a lot, a lot of airline pilots, a lot of firefighters who listen to the show and they rock those stashes and the ladies love it. So you gotta, you gotta leave that open there. That's a possibility.
- [31:18]
B
But I will.
- [31:19]
A
We'll, we gotta hear from the queen herself on this one.
- [31:21]
B
I don't know.
- [31:21]
A
I don't know. Carrie was like, get your beard back, Buck. So get your beard. I want you getting parted.
- [31:26]
B
But we'll see. Poor kids at the bar in bat mitzvah have nothing. They're walking into this old guy with the mustache from Tennessee. Poor kids.

You ain't imagining it. The world has gone insane. Reclaim your sanity with Clay and Buck. Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome back in play Travis Buck Sexton show. I was looking at all of our calls to make sure that I can see them all here. And we got a lot of people who want to weigh into a variety of different subjects. Let's have some fun with the callers here. Coming up in just a sec. Give you a heads up when we come back. Top of the next hour, we'll give you the latest on that South Carolina murder which you're probably not going to see in the media anywhere else. It's an awful story. We'll also play some of the cuts from Tom Holman early this morning, taking control of the agenda as it pertains to what's going on in Minneapolis. We'll continue to talk about Alex Preddy and more, but we got a bunch of different topics. James in Texas probably did not anticipate that he would be calling in about this. I certainly would not have anticipated this topic. Natalie Portman, what do you got to say?
- [33:30]
C
Hey Clay, I got a Natalie Portman movie for you to watch. If you've never seen it, okay. Annihilation. With a Annihilation.
- [33:41]
B
Annihilation. I'm adding it to the roster.
- [33:43]
C
You got to check that out, bro. I'm your Lost Boys. I'm your Lost Boys fan also.
- [33:49]
B
Yeah, well, thank you for calling in about that. One of the great all time vampire movies, maybe arguably the bet. Thank you for calling. The best vampire movie out there. TJ in upstate New York. What you got for us?
- [34:01]
C
Hey, Clay, I'm just trying to give you a little advice. I know you like to get your hair behind the back alley of a gas station. So what I'm saying you need a little guidance with the mustache. You can really screw it up. So like you can maintain it. But the first time they like cut that in you, you might want to have somebody, you know, like really like do it, you know.
- [34:25]
B
Thank you for the call. I, you know, just because I go to what's in that great clips. Just because I am willing I go to. This is true for my entire adult life. I basically have gone to great clips. It's a $15 haircut. They always take care of me. And I mean some of you just taking shots at their perfect works. Not back alley. I did go to a really fancy barber when I was down in Miami. That was nice. I was just walking back from Buck's studio back to my hotel and I have extra time because the kids aren't there. And I was like, you know what? I got time to get a haircut. That was pretty good.
- [34:59]
A
Was that my place? Did you just walk in and no one speaks English and it's all just Espanol. They got the Buena Visa Social Club playing over the PA because that's like where I go.
- [35:07]
B
Yeah, well, it's right by the Lincoln Mall. Like, and it was definitely all Hispanic dudes and. And I thought I got a pretty good haircut there, but it cost 50 bucks and I was like, oh my God, who pays $50 for a haircut.
- [35:20]
A
Well, this is the other thing. I'll tell you this. My, my, my Cuban guys here, and they're Cuban American, of course, but, you know, they're of Cuban descent. They. They just do the job and they just. They offer me a little espresso or, you know, whatever the Cuban coffee.
- [35:35]
C
And.
- [35:35]
A
And then there's. We just chill. I do not want to be talking to somebody while I'm getting my haircut. I just want to sit there in like my own zone, in relative silence. So they just sit there. Some of them don't speak English all that well. Five stars would recommend to a friend on Google. Love it, love it, love it.
- [35:52]
B
I don't want to be shock you, but I want to talk the whole time. I'm getting a haircut and I like my nose.
- [35:58]
A
No one is shocked by this. That is true.
- [36:00]
B
Diane in Rapid City, South Dakota. Diane, what you got for us?
- [36:05]
C
Well, I thought I'd been frustrated and I thought that the person that came the closest and was going to actually address it was when I believe his name was Mark Halprin.
- [36:21]
A
Yes.
- [36:21]
C
And so I thought, oh, sure, my bestie buckle pick up on it. And with his old poli sci degree, the number one thing for a municipality leadership is to keep people safe.
- [36:38]
B
Amen. And so you want. We got to go to break here. But Diane wants designated space for protesting away from the city. Unfortunately, they don't want that. They want to screw up everything. I don't think it would work. Final hour. Next.
