Clay and guest Ian Miller dissect the decline of superhero movies, attributing failures like Black Widow, Eternals, and Ant-Man 3 to Marvel’s post-Endgame political messaging and audience fatigue.

Hour 3 - Woke No More

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful blend of cultural commentary, political analysis, and listener engagement, emphasizing the ongoing shift in American values and media narratives. This hour centers on the cultural backlash against woke ideology, with Clay Travis spotlighting the viral success of Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad, the New York Times’ attempt to downplay the controversy, and the broader collapse of left-wing cultural dominance in entertainment and media. Clay and guest Ian Miller dissect the decline of superhero movies, attributing failures like Black Widow, Eternals, and Ant-Man 3 to Marvel’s post-Endgame political messaging and audience fatigue. They critique James Gunn’s framing of the new Superman film as an immigration story, arguing that politicizing entertainment alienates viewers and contributes to box office losses. The hour also explores the COVID-19 legacy, particularly its devastating impact on youth. Clay introduces the documentary Generation CO, which chronicles the emotional and developmental toll of school lockdowns. He and Ian argue that young men’s political realignment, especially toward President Trump, stems from anger over lost formative years and government overreach. The segment calls out Anthony Fauci’s unaccountable leadership and the broader refusal to acknowledge the harm inflicted on a generation. Listeners from across the country weigh in, sharing personal stories about BLM-era social pressure, Grant Napear’s firing and comeback, and even engaging in humorous mountain rivalry banter between Colorado and the Smoky Mountains. The show also touches on Major League Baseball’s quiet reversal of its stance on Georgia’s voting laws by hosting the All-Star Game in Atlanta, a move seen as a cultural win for conservatives. The hour closes with speculation on a potential 2028 showdown between Gavin Newsom and Ron DeSantis, contrasting their COVID-era governance and disaster response.
