Hour 3 - Nonsensical Women

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of cultural commentary, political analysis, and listener engagement. The hour kicks off with Katie Miller, host of the Katie Miller Podcast, joining Clay and Buck for a candid conversation about the New York City mayoral election, progressive politics, and cultural contradictions. Katie critiques Gen Z voters and liberal women for supporting candidates who oppose their stated ideals, such as women’s rights, while embracing policies like open borders that lead to rising crime. She warns that America is trending toward the UK’s failed immigration model and calls out the hypocrisy of progressive movements like “Trans Rights for Gaza.”

The discussion shifts to gender politics and women’s sports, spotlighting a shocking story from the National Women’s Soccer League, where a player was vilified for saying women’s soccer should be for women. Katie argues that liberal white women are undermining women’s rights to virtue signal, while magazines like Glamour glorify biological men as women. The hosts also touch on cultural flashpoints, including Sidney Sweeney’s refusal to apologize for a controversial ad, and debate why society shames traditional femininity while celebrating woke narratives.

Katie then addresses the broader cultural battle: encouraging young women to value motherhood and family as much as careers. She argues that Republicans fail to promote the importance of raising children and building strong marriages, noting that societal praise for workplace success overshadows the critical role of stay-at-home moms. Her message: being a mom is a “civilization-building” career that deserves equal respect.

The conversation turns political with outrage over Virginia electing Jay Jones as Attorney General, despite his violent rhetoric wishing harm on political opponents. Katie calls this a dangerous sign of partisanship eclipsing basic decency, warning that Republicans face growing hostility in blue states.

Clay and Buck then pivot to breaking news on the government shutdown’s impact on air travel, sharing Clay’s email from Delta about flight reductions at 40 major airports and United’s preemptive cancellations. They urge listeners to prepare for holiday travel chaos as staffing shortages hit air traffic control.

Economic concerns dominate the latter half of the hour. A podcast listener challenges Trump to focus on fixing inflation rather than blaming Democrats. Clay and Buck explain why inflation is “embedded” and compare today’s struggles to the Reagan era post-Carter. They predict economic recovery by mid-2026 but stress that prices won’t return to 2019 levels. The hosts also explore structural challenges for younger generations, including skyrocketing housing costs, student debt, and diminishing value of college degrees. They play remarks from Palantir CEO Alex Karp, who notes that skilled trades now outpace Ivy League degrees in economic value—a trend accelerated by AI and automation.

The hour closes with rapid-fire listener calls on topics like diesel fuel’s role in the economy, eliminating the filibuster, and even a lighthearted proposal for a Clay & Buck dating platform. Clay and Buck wrap up with humor, sports talk, and a reminder to tune in for Friday’s show.
