Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Oct 29 2025

Buck's Beloved NYC

Clay and Buck scrutinize Mamdani’s past remarks on policing, prisons, and his alignment with anti-Israel rhetoric, drawing connections to broader progressive movements like Occupy Wall Street and BLM. They argue that Mamdani’s narrative is rooted in victimhood politics and toxic identity-based grievance culture, which they believe is emblematic of the far-left wing of the Democratic Party.

Andrew Cuomo’s recent media appearance is dissected, where he warns that the radical left could destroy the Democratic Party. Despite Cuomo’s criticisms, the hosts express skepticism about his political competence and campaign strategy, noting his reliance on legacy media while Mamdani leverages modern platforms like TikTok to reach younger voters.

Curtis Sliwa's Message

Ahigh-energy, politically charged interview with Republican NYC mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa, just six days ahead of the pivotal New York City election. This segment centers on Sliwa’s refusal to drop out of the race despite concerns that vote-splitting between him and Andrew Cuomo could hand victory to Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani. Sliwa passionately defends his candidacy, invoking populist themes, his Guardian Angels legacy, and a commitment to fighting crime and corruption in NYC.

The hour features Sliwa’s fiery rhetoric against both Cuomo and Mamdani, whom he labels as equally destructive to New York. He blames Cuomo for enabling Mamdani’s rise and criticizes Cuomo’s past policies, including no-cash bail, prison closures, and mismanagement of juvenile crime. Sliwa also reveals he was offered $10 million to drop out of the race—an allegation he calls unethical and potentially criminal. He emphasizes his grassroots campaign, his new “Protect Animals” ballot line, and his belief in democratic choice over billionaire influence.

FL Rep. Byron Donalds

Ahigh-profile interview with Florida Congressman Byron Donalds, who is actively campaigning to become Florida’s next governor. Donalds discusses his platform, including support for eliminating property taxes on homesteaded properties, maintaining funding for essential services, and continuing the legacy of Governor Ron DeSantis. He emphasizes Florida’s low-tax, law-and-order appeal and warns New Yorkers considering relocation to Florida to respect the values that make the Sunshine State successful.

Donalds also weighs in on the national implications of Zohran Mamdani potentially becoming New York City’s mayor, calling him a dangerous Marxist whose policies would be disastrous for NYC and the Democratic Party. He predicts Mamdani would become a national face of the progressive left, alongside figures like AOC and Bernie Sanders, and urges other states to follow Florida’s lead in sound governance.  The conversation shifts to college football, with playful banter about Florida State’s recent struggles and speculation on coaching changes at the University of Florida. Donalds diplomatically avoids trash talk, showing his political polish, while Clay and Buck dive into sports picks and betting insights.

Climate Change Flip

Katie Miller’s viral CNN moment where she criticized DEI hiring practices and Karine Jean-Pierre’s book tour. They argue that identity politics have overtaken meritocracy in the Democratic Party, comparing modern progressive rhetoric to medieval royalty declarations. Clay and Buck dissect the evolution of the Democratic Party platform from 2012 to 2024, noting a dramatic shift away from traditional values like fatherhood and responsibility toward an overwhelming focus on LGBTQ+ rights and land acknowledgments.

Hour 1 - Buck's Beloved NYC

Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the final stretch of the 2025 off-year election cycle, with a sharp focus on the high-stakes New York City mayoral race. The hosts analyze the political landscape across key battlegrounds including Virginia and New Jersey, but the spotlight remains on NYC, where Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani is leading a controversial campaign. Curtis Sliwa, the Republican contender, is scheduled to join the show in Hour 2 to make his case, while former Governor Andrew Cuomo emerges as a wildcard third-party candidate.

The discussion centers on Mamdani’s radical left-wing ideology, past statements, and perceived dishonesty, particularly regarding claims of Islamophobia post-9/11. Clay and Buck scrutinize Mamdani’s past remarks on policing, prisons, and his alignment with anti-Israel rhetoric, drawing connections to broader progressive movements like Occupy Wall Street and BLM. They argue that Mamdani’s narrative is rooted in victimhood politics and toxic identity-based grievance culture, which they believe is emblematic of the far-left wing of the Democratic Party.

Andrew Cuomo’s recent media appearance is dissected, where he warns that the radical left could destroy the Democratic Party. Despite Cuomo’s criticisms, the hosts express skepticism about his political competence and campaign strategy, noting his reliance on legacy media while Mamdani leverages modern platforms like TikTok to reach younger voters.

The hour also touches on Kamala Harris’s political future, the fallout from Karine Jean-Pierre’s book tour, and the broader implications of leftist ideology on American politics. The hosts emphasize the importance of voter turnout in NYC, predicting a historic surge reminiscent of Rudy Giuliani’s 1993 victory, while expressing concern that Mamdani could win with a plurality despite opposition from both Cuomo and Sliwa.

This episode is packed with election analysis, political commentary, and cultural critique, making it a must-listen for conservative audiences tracking the future of urban leadership, socialism in America, and the ideological battle within the Democratic Party. Tune in to Hour 2 for Curtis Sliwa’s live interview and more insights on the NYC mayoral race.

Hour 2 - Curtis Sliwa Calls Us

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a high-energy, politically charged interview with Republican NYC mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa, just six days ahead of the pivotal New York City election. This segment centers on Sliwa’s refusal to drop out of the race despite concerns that vote-splitting between him and Andrew Cuomo could hand victory to Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani. Sliwa passionately defends his candidacy, invoking populist themes, his Guardian Angels legacy, and a commitment to fighting crime and corruption in NYC.

The hour features Sliwa’s fiery rhetoric against both Cuomo and Mamdani, whom he labels as equally destructive to New York. He blames Cuomo for enabling Mamdani’s rise and criticizes Cuomo’s past policies, including no-cash bail, prison closures, and mismanagement of juvenile crime. Sliwa also reveals he was offered $10 million to drop out of the race—an allegation he calls unethical and potentially criminal. He emphasizes his grassroots campaign, his new “Protect Animals” ballot line, and his belief in democratic choice over billionaire influence.

Clay and Buck analyze Sliwa’s strategy and motivations, concluding that Sliwa sees no meaningful difference between Cuomo and Mamdani, which justifies his continued presence in the race. They debate whether Mamdani’s potential victory would be a disaster for NYC or a wake-up call for the rest of the country about the dangers of far-left governance. The hosts explore how Mamdani’s radical positions—such as taxing white neighborhoods more, defunding police, and supporting socialist policies—could impact national politics and the Democratic Party’s future.

The conversation expands to compare Mamdani’s ideology with other prominent Democrats like Gavin Newsom, Kamala Harris, and Joe Biden, arguing that while mainstream Democrats often mask their progressive agendas, Mamdani openly embraces extreme left-wing positions. The hosts suggest that Mamdani’s election could serve as a cautionary tale for voters nationwide and potentially fuel a conservative resurgence.

Listeners from across the country weigh in, with some supporting Clay’s concerns about vote-splitting and others expressing fatigue over NYC-centric coverage. The hosts defend the focus, citing the national significance of the NYC mayoral race and its implications for the broader political landscape.

Hour 3 - FL Rep. Byron Donalds

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show features a wide-ranging and dynamic conversation that blends national politics, Florida’s gubernatorial race, cultural commentary, and listener interaction. The hour kicks off with a high-profile interview with Florida Congressman Byron Donalds, who is actively campaigning to become Florida’s next governor. Donalds discusses his platform, including support for eliminating property taxes on homesteaded properties, maintaining funding for essential services, and continuing the legacy of Governor Ron DeSantis. He emphasizes Florida’s low-tax, law-and-order appeal and warns New Yorkers considering relocation to Florida to respect the values that make the Sunshine State successful.

Donalds also weighs in on the national implications of Zohran Mamdani potentially becoming New York City’s mayor, calling him a dangerous Marxist whose policies would be disastrous for NYC and the Democratic Party. He predicts Mamdani would become a national face of the progressive left, alongside figures like AOC and Bernie Sanders, and urges other states to follow Florida’s lead in sound governance.

The conversation shifts to college football, with playful banter about Florida State’s recent struggles and speculation on coaching changes at the University of Florida. Donalds diplomatically avoids trash talk, showing his political polish, while Clay and Buck dive into sports picks and betting insights.

The hosts then pivot to cultural and political commentary, highlighting Katie Miller’s viral CNN moment where she criticized DEI hiring practices and Karine Jean-Pierre’s book tour. They argue that identity politics have overtaken meritocracy in the Democratic Party, comparing modern progressive rhetoric to medieval royalty declarations. Clay and Buck dissect the evolution of the Democratic Party platform from 2012 to 2024, noting a dramatic shift away from traditional values like fatherhood and responsibility toward an overwhelming focus on LGBTQ+ rights and land acknowledgments.

Kamala Harris’s political future is also discussed, with skepticism about her viability in 2028 following a controversial book release and perceived lack of political momentum. The hour closes with listener talkbacks on topics ranging from gas station economics and pronunciation debates to humorous critiques of Clay’s foxhole loyalty and Buck’s French language skills.
