Hour 3 - Trump, the Man's Man

The hour begins with the introduction of Dr. Nicole Saphier, a board-certified radiologist and Fox News contributor, who joins the Clay and Buck Podcast Network with her new show, "Wellness Unmasked." Dr. Saphier discusses her goals for the podcast, which will focus on cutting through misinformation in health and wellness, from cold plunges and saunas to chronic illness and food science.

A major topic of discussion is President Trump’s executive order aimed at lowering prescription drug prices. Dr. Saphier explains the significance of this move, noting that unlike President Biden’s limited Medicare-focused efforts, Trump’s plan targets broader negotiations across Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers. She highlights the legal and political challenges ahead, particularly from Big Pharma, but praises the administration’s aggressive stance on healthcare affordability.

The conversation shifts to the controversial nomination of Dr. Casey Means as Surgeon General. Dr. Saphier critiques the pick, citing Means’ lack of completed medical training and limited clinical experience. She emphasizes the need for a unifying, credible figure in public health who aligns with both the “Make America Great Again” and “Make America Healthy Again” movements.

In a rapid-fire “lightning round,” Dr. Saphier weighs in on popular wellness trends like infrared saunas and cold plunges, offering practical insights into their health benefits. Clay and Buck also share personal anecdotes about their own experiences with these trends, adding humor and relatability to the segment.

Later in the hour, the hosts welcome Nick Adams, author of the upcoming book "From Mar-a-Lago to Mars: President Trump’s Great American Comeback." Adams discusses Trump’s resilience, masculinity, and cultural influence, particularly among young men and athletes. He argues that Trump’s authenticity and refusal to conform have made him a symbol of strength and leadership, not just in America but across the Western world.

The hour wraps with listener talkbacks, including praise for the show’s balance of serious content and humor. Clay also revisits his bold claim that he could swim from Alcatraz to San Francisco, sparking a lighthearted debate about endurance, hypothermia, and the logistics of the challenge.
