In episode #1126 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards returns after a brief holiday break, sharing his reluctance to dwell on the Minnesota Somali daycare fraud story and instead diving into local FAFO (f*** around and find out) tales from Central Mississippi, including a man who shot at a Scott County deputy after calling them himself and another who bit an officer during an arrest at a Tupelo Texas Roadhouse.

Special Christmas Night Edition: The Clay Edwards Show - Breaking News: Jackson's Deadly Christmas Week    In this gripping holiday episode, host Clay Edwards dives into one of the deadliest stretches in Jackson, Mississippi's 2025 homicide tally—now at 74 with just one week left in the year. Over Christmas week, the city saw 5 shocking deaths (4 official homicides plus one suspicious case) and 2 additional shootings, all packed into a brutal three-day span. Could it have been 7? Clay breaks it down fast and hard, focusing exclusively on incidents within Jackson city limits.   From an 81-year-old woman's remains unearthed in a South Jackson backyard (leading to arrests for desecration of a corpse) to a man shot and burned in his vehicle on Eddy Street, a double homicide of young men on Lynn Avenue, a pre-dawn Christmas morning killing on Luther Lane, and chaotic shootings at a motel and between neighbors—Clay covers the raw details with unfiltered commentary on crime, culture, and the silence surrounding black-on-black violence.   Why no protests?

In this episode, I spotlight JD Vance boldly declaring it's okay to be white—no more apologies in America. We dive into the open anti-white discrimination baked into DEI, which has boxed out talented white men for decades, making everything in society worse by sidelining the innovators who built it all. Joined by Andrew Gosser, we tackle the real racism shift: how constant attacks, guilt-tripping, and demands for reparations are fueling black fatigue, turning well-meaning folks against unchecked entitlement. I'm done with the hate—facts over feelings, and we're fighting back unapologetically.

In this episode, I kick off Christmas week with a smooth commute from Brandon, scarfing down an energy drink after a late night of show prep. We dive into holiday meats—I'm ditching ham and turkey for ribeyes at family gatherings, loving the sides like green bean casserole. Share your go-to dishes on the text line. I offer solid advice: raise your personal standards right now to make goals achievable and life better—it's transformed mine by cutting out negativity. Shoutout to donors who helped raise $1,500 for local animal shelters, covering 12 adoptions; ignore the haters accusing me of ulterior motives—transparency matters. Address critics who say I don't do positive work: shining light on culture rot and thugs is positive, as is fundraising for disasters and sick kids. No sympathy for chronic bad choices like homelessness from drugs—I've seen it up close. Fascinating update: Zodiac Killer and Black Dahlia murders linked to one suspect, Marvin Merrill. Wrap with JD Vance affirming it's okay to be white, calling out anti-white discrimination in DEI that boxes out talent and worsens society—facts over guilt. Joined by Andrew Gasser for real talk on racism, trans issues, and black fatigue from unchecked demands like reparations. Unfiltered reality to start your day strong.

In episode #1123 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards kicks off Christmas week with a successful charity drive raising over $1,400 to cover adoption fees at local animal shelters, aiming to find homes for pets this holiday season. Edwards shares a motivational quote of the day: "Being surrounded by people smarter than you is an opportunity, not a competition." The episode's fun question: Did you go to Hooters for the food or the scenery? Discussion turns to controversy at TPUSA's Amfest, including a recreated tent from Charlie Kirk's assassination as a photo op and infighting among conservatives like Ben Shapiro and Tucker Carlson. Guest co-host State Rep. Fred Shanks joins for hours two and three, covering legislative plans like banning Sharia law and CAIR in Mississippi, PERS retirement reforms, school choice debates, and sports talk on Ole Miss's playoff run, college football predictions, and DK Metcalf's fan altercation.

The episode features host Clay Edwards discussing his fight against cancel culture and highlighting overlooked issues in Jackson, Mississippi, including systemic corruption. He debunks a viral claim of racism involving police officers, shares why he's shifting holiday charity from aiding the homeless to funding pet adoptions at local animal shelters, and reflects on past community fundraisers. Edwards pays tribute to NASCAR driver Greg Biffle following a tragic plane crash, awards an "FAFO" to a woman fired for harassing an elderly worker over a political shirt, questions a potential cover-up in the Brown University shooting, mentions Trump's plan to return to the moon by 2028, and addresses discrimination against white males. He also takes listener calls and reads texts on these topics.

In this lighthearted segment, host Clay Edwards shares a personal anecdote about his Hey Dude shoes, explaining why he wears them sockless despite the cooler weather. He humorously complains about their intense odor, comparing it to marijuana "stank," and recounts how the smell "punched him in the face" after storing them briefly. Edwards details his cleaning method—removing the soles and washing them (and sometimes the shoes) in the dishwasher with detergent pods—noting it works temporarily but the stink returns after one or two wears. He praises their slip-on convenience but laments the awkwardness of pairing them with socks, admitting he's tried various tricks without success, and jokingly refers to going "raw dog" without them.

In this segment, host Clay Edwards breaks down a heated Jackson City Council exchange where Ward 3 Councilman Kenneth Stokes confronts a critic named Harris, who demands Stokes resign over alleged unethical behavior and mismanagement in his district. Stokes repeatedly accuses Harris of being a "dope dealer" since elementary school, questions if he's been jailed for it, and points out his Texas plates while claiming he lives in Texas. Edwards praises Stokes' combative style as entertaining, speculates on their prior history (including a text suggesting Harris might be Stokes' nephew), and mocks the absurdity, calling Stokes a "national treasure" for his unfiltered antics. The clip highlights ongoing tensions in Jackson politics, with Edwards noting Ward 3's decline under Stokes' leadership.

In this segment, host Clay Edwards celebrates President Donald Trump's announcement of a "warrior dividend"—a $1,776 bonus (symbolizing the year of America's founding in 1776) for every U.S. military member, funded by tariff revenues and already en route as a Christmas thank-you. Edwards highlights the surge in military enlistments under Trump compared to the previous year's lows, mocks anticipated leftist backlash labeling it "fascism" while contrasting it with demands for $10,000 student loan forgiveness, and urges Democrat-leaning service members to redirect their checks if they view the U.S. as colonized land. He plays a clip of Trump explaining the bonus and praises him as the greatest president ever.

In this episode, host Clay Edwards addresses misconceptions about marijuana use and driving through personal anecdotes and listener interactions. Responding to a texter's claim that "pothead geniuses" believe marijuana users "don't get out and drive" and just "sit at the house and chill," Edwards shares a story of a FedEx driver who delivered a package while reeking of marijuana, confirming that users do drive under the influence. He humorously admits to once priding himself on being a "really good high driver" in his youth, though he notes it now causes him anxiety. Listener Cheyenne recounts losing her husband to a drug-impaired driver, emphasizing the dangers and irresponsibility of driving high. Edwards also discusses the strong odor of modern marijuana detectable even from vehicles on the road, advocating against public consumption while supporting reclassification, and ties it to broader debates on drug myths and safety.

In this segment, host Clay Edwards sarcastically mocks conspiracy theories from critics with "Goon Squad derangement syndrome," suggesting that Eddie Terrell Parker's methamphetamine possession arrest was a police setup. He quips that detractors likely claim authorities "sprinkled some meth on him" during the Louisiana traffic stop, dismissing the charges as fabricated. Edwards challenges racial stereotypes pushed on "black Twitter" and in comments, noting claims that meth is exclusively a "white trash" or "white devil's drug" and not used by Black people, while highlighting Parker's status as a modern civil rights icon turned alleged meth user. The bit ties into broader critiques of media narratives and victim portrayals in the Goon Squad case.

Eddie Terrell Parker, one of the two Black men tortured by former Rankin County Sheriff's deputies known as the "Goon Squad" in a January 2023 warrantless raid, became a symbol of a "FAFO" (fuck around and find out) incident following his recent arrest. After winning a $2.5 million civil settlement with Rankin County in May 2025—split with co-victim Michael Corey Jenkins—Parker was arrested on December 17, 2025, by Louisiana State Police during a traffic stop in Madison Parish. He faced multiple charges, including possession of methamphetamine, cocaine, and marijuana while in possession of a firearm, as well as possession with intent to distribute controlled substances. Authorities alleged he was found with substantial amounts of drugs and at least one gun, with some charges potentially federal. Parker, a prior felon, is being held without bond in Madison Parish Jail. The incident highlights Parker's squandered second chance, as he went from civil rights victim and settlement recipient to facing serious drug and weapons charges shortly after receiving his payout.   darkhorsepressnow.com +2

In this episode, host Clay Edwards discusses the recent arrest of Eddie Terrell Parker, one of the victims in the Rankin County "Goon Squad" incident, on multiple charges including narcotics possession with intent to distribute and felon in possession of a firearm in Louisiana. Edwards critiques media portrayals of the Goon Squad as racially motivated, emphasizing equal opportunity misconduct and Parker's wasted multimillion-dollar settlement opportunity. The show covers listener reactions, a city council confrontation involving Kenneth Stokes accusing a critic of being a drug dealer, and topics like marijuana reclassification under Trump, alongside humorous anecdotes on drug use and driving.

Clay Edwards interviews Anthony Mitchell, a 12-year black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and owner of Anthony Mitchell Jiu-Jitsu Studio in Gluckstadt, Mississippi. Mitchell shares his journey into combat sports starting in 2006, initially training for MMA after a background in baseball, football, weightlifting, and bodybuilding, seeking new competition as he aged. He discusses jiu-jitsu techniques like pulling guard, the sport's accessibility for all ages and fitness levels, and its physical benefits, including safe training on cushioned mats. The conversation emphasizes mental health advantages, such as building camaraderie, combating anxiety and depression through routines and challenges, fostering trust among training partners, and providing a "third place" for men amid societal pressures. They touch on testosterone therapy's role in men's health, critiques of government overreach (e.g., regulations shutting down businesses), cultural rot, drug legalization debates, and personal growth, with Mitchell promoting his studio for self-improvement and community.

Clay Edwards shares a candid testimony about his past struggles with drug abuse, beginning around 1992 when he got his driver's license and immersed himself in street life, influenced by rap culture and hanging with the wrong crowd. He describes marijuana as a gateway drug for him, leading to harder substances like powder drugs and meth, despite initially hating the effects. His involvement in the nightclub business from 2001 exacerbated the issue, involving partying, sex, and heavy drug use, including ecstasy and cocaine. He hit rock bottom around 2009-2010, losing everything financially due to bad decisions, but achieved sobriety after a pivotal intervention from his father and moving back home. Edwards has been drug-free for about 13 years, emphasizing that drugs can kill and scramble lives, urging young listeners to avoid them entirely and learn from his mistakes.

Clay Edwards shares a candid personal testimony about his past struggles with street life, drug use starting in the early 1990s, including marijuana as a gateway to harder substances like meth, his time in the nightclub scene, hitting rock bottom, and achieving sobriety over a decade ago. He emphasizes learning from mistakes and avoiding triggers. The show then features an interview with Anthony Mitchell, a 12-year black belt and jiu-jitsu studio owner, discussing the sport's physical and mental health benefits, including building camaraderie, combating anxiety and depression, fostering discipline, and promoting personal growth through training. They touch on broader topics like societal pressures on men, the value of routines, and critiques of government overreach and cultural issues.

DeSoto County Justice Court Judge Karen Sanders was arrested on December 6, 2025, by Hernando Police for driving under the influence (DUI) and reckless driving after being pulled over. Despite the charges, she returned to the bench on December 15, 2025—nine days later—to preside over cases, including those involving similar offenses. Defendants expressed mixed reactions, with some shocked at her quick return and questioning her impartiality, feeling she might receive lenient treatment as a judge. Sanders' own court appearance for the charges is scheduled for April 1, 2026. The incident has sparked discussions on accountability for elected officials facing legal issues, drawing comparisons to cases like Hinds County DA Jody Owens continuing duties amid federal charges.

In the wake of Donald Trump's 2024 presidential election victory on November 5, Rob Reiner experienced a public meltdown on the social media platform Bluesky, where he had migrated after leaving X (formerly Twitter). The 77-year-old actor and director posted increasingly distressed messages, declaring that "America has fallen" due to electing a "fascist" like Trump, criticizing Republicans for not understanding the consequences, and lamenting that Bluesky had become "vile, racist, and evil" overrun by "MAGA scum" spreading lies and hate.   On November 20, 2024, Reiner announced he was checking into a facility for "peace and relaxation," stating he would avoid phones, social media, and trolls to "heal my pain." Reports framed this as a response to his escalating paranoia and emotional distress over the election, though it's unclear if it was a mental health institution or simply a retreat. Reiner has been silent online since, with no further updates on his condition.

In the episode, host Clay Edwards argues that the left lost the culture war through self-inflicted wounds, primarily by censoring comedy and imposing rigid purity tests. He explains that attempts to make humor "unoffensive" alienated comedians, who responded by creating their own platforms, stripping the left of its cultural edge. Edwards describes this as "culture war suicide," where censorship, canceling, and overreach backfired, allowing conservatives to reclaim creative spaces.   Co-host Andrew Gasser agrees, noting the left's superior production values in media but highlighting a shift as more creatives align with conservative views. Edwards emphasizes that winning asymmetrical warfare involves regaining control of culture through uncensored expression, predicting historians will view the left's tactics as the turning point that handed victory to the right.

In the episode, host Clay Edwards discusses the concept of "celebrating death" in the context of political enmity, emphasizing that making a strong stand means leaving a legacy where enemies rejoice at your passing—as the ultimate compliment. He argues that Charlie Kirk would have been pleased by leftists celebrating his assassination, viewing it as proof of his impact against "evil," and expresses his own desire for the left to dance on his grave for the same reason. Edwards contrasts this with the muted response to Rob Reiner's death, noting leftists' eagerness for a conservative "sacrifice" to flip cancel culture narratives, while affirming no personal sympathy for Reiner due to his vitriolic attacks on Trump.   Co-host Andrew Gasser adds that indifference to Reiner's passing stems from his narcissism and TDS-fueled obsession, suggesting Reiner's only regret would be not getting the last word against Trump. They highlight double standards, where leftists mocked deaths like Rush Limbaugh's but decry conservative commentary, underscoring Trump's unfiltered honesty amid threats and persecutions.

Last Call Sports Grill, a popular nightclub in Northeast Jackson, Mississippi, located on Old Square Road, caught fire overnight on December 16, 2025. The blaze started around 12:40 a.m., prompting a response from multiple Jackson Fire Department units who battled the flames through the night. The venue, formerly home to Old Venice Pizza Company and Gridley's, was heavily damaged, but there is no word yet on the cause of the fire or if anyone was injured.

In the "Last Meal" segment of Episode 1,119 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards poses the question of the day: If you could choose your final meal before death, what would it be? Inspired by the Ruthless podcast, Edwards ponders his own choices, from a classic steak to local favorites like country fried steak at Martin's, red beans and rice with sausage from McB's, or veal cutlets from now-closed Jackson staples such as the Elite or Mayflower. He emphasizes flexibility, allowing picks from home-cooked meals, current restaurants, or nostalgic spots from Central Mississippi's culinary history.   Edwards engages listeners by reading texted and commented suggestions, sparking lively debates on details like white vs. brown gravy, Mexican vs. regular cornbread, and sides such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or fried okra. He reminisces about beloved defunct eateries, including Pizza Inn's pre-franchise pizza, Pizza Express's mozzarella-heavy slices, Scotty's on Terry Road, Dennery's, the Cherokee's roast beef, Gridley's hot barbecue sauce, and even the Elite's enchiladas. The conversation evokes food nostalgia, with Edwards admitting it left him hungry and planning a hearty lunch.   The segment wraps with more listener ideas, like rib eye steak sandwiches from Cypress Point, dirty bird sandwiches from Burgers Blues Barbecue, poppy seed chicken from Two Sisters, and crab legs with crawfish, blending humor, local lore, and audience interaction for a fun, appetite-stirring start to the show.

In the episode, host Clay Edwards discusses Donald Trump's controversial Truth Social post about Rob Reiner's murder by his son, sarcastically attributing it to "Trump Derangement Syndrome" (TDS) and wishing the couple peace. Edwards defends Trump's raw, unfiltered response, citing Reiner's history of vicious attacks calling Trump a racist, liar, Nazi, and Russian colluder, including demands for his imprisonment. He shares personal parallels with facing threats and cancel culture, criticizing "virtue-signaling" conservatives like Brylin Hollyhand for condemning Trump while ignoring Reiner's hypocrisy, such as mocking Rush Limbaugh's death.   Co-host Andrew Gasser joins, questioning what Trump said that was factually wrong and emphasizing Reiner's inflammatory rhetoric, including climate denial accusations and post-election meltdowns that led Reiner to a mental health facility. They highlight the double standard in reactions to political violence, noting leftists celebrated Charlie Kirk's death but decry Trump's commentary, and affirm Trump's right to unapologetic honesty given attempts on his life and legal persecutions.  

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards kicks off with reflections on living in interesting times and shares the chilly morning weather, noting a high of 58 degrees despite a frosty start. The question of the day asks listeners about their ideal last meal, sparking lively discussions on favorites like country fried steak, veal cutlets from classic spots such as the Elite or Scotty's, rib eye sandwiches, roast beef, and even crawfish feasts with all the fixings. Edwards reminisces about beloved closed restaurants and reads listener suggestions, debating details like gravy types and cornbread varieties.   Co-host Andrew Gasser joins for the second hour, diving into Donald Trump's controversial post about Rob Reiner's death, attributing it to Trump Derangement Syndrome and wishing the couple peace. They defend Trump's raw response given Reiner's past attacks calling Trump a racist, liar, and colluder with Russia, while criticizing virtue-signaling conservatives. The conversation highlights Reiner's history of inflammatory statements, including post-election meltdowns, and contrasts reactions to political violence.   The show shifts to wrestling, analyzing John Cena's final match and debating retirement bookings, before addressing a DeSoto County judge returning to the bench days after a DUI arrest, raising questions about accountability for officials facing similar charges as defendants.  

The Clay Edwards Show episode features host Clay Edwards discussing a range of topics, starting with an announcement about ending Facebook streaming due to AI moderation issues and recommending alternatives like YouTube, Rumble, and X. He covers the alleged stabbing deaths of director Rob Reiner and his wife in their Brentwood home, with their son as a suspect, while praising Reiner's films like The Princess Bride and A Few Good Men despite political differences. Edwards touches on sports, including a recommendation for the Stuart Scott 30 for 30 documentary Booyah, and reflects on 1990s culture. Political rants include criticism of left-wing rhetoric, a DoorDash driver accused of tampering with food, accusations of racism in Pantone's "Color of the Year," and asymmetrical warfare in media and culture. 

BENNY THOMPSON - YOU CAN'T HATE HIM ENOUGH!!

HOW BRYAN BAILEY CAN WIN RE-ELECTION IN RANKIN COUNTY

FAFO FRIDAY - FULL SHOW (Ep #1,117)

In this midday live episode of the Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards announces expanded partnerships with Men's Health of Mississippi, dives into the escalating scandal surrounding fired Michigan football coach Sharron Moore (including an affair, threats, and ESPN's protective coverage), criticizes Rep. Benny Thompson for calling a National Guardsman shooting an "unfortunate accident," promotes a 50% off livestream-only sale on merchandise (promo code: LIVE at buyfafo.com), and touches on sports, politics, Jasmine Crockett's Senate run, and listener reviews.

In this segment of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards dives into the dramatic firing of University of Michigan head football coach Sherrone Moore, framing it as a massive "bag fumble" over an alleged affair with a young white staffer, Paige Shiver (playfully dubbed a "snow bunny"). Broadcasting from the Men's Health and Women's Wellness of Mississippi studios, Clay details how Moore, a married "family man" and diversity hire post-Jim Harbaugh's NCAA scandal-plagued exit, violated school policy with the relationship, leading to his termination with cause from a $30 million, five-year contract after just two years. He shares salacious updates: Moore reportedly broke into Shiver's home, threatened to kill her and himself (allegedly with a knife to his throat), and was arrested before being placed in protective custody. Clay pulls up photos of Shiver (a "9.5" blonde whose dad is a Chicago Bears executive) and Moore's wife (an "8.5"), speculating on rumors of pregnancy complicating matters. Tying it to broader "rotten culture" critiques—infidelity glorified in hip-hop, side pieces as normalized, and parallels to scandals like Hugh Freeze at Ole Miss—Clay warns against marrying before "being done as a dog" and assumes good intent without moralizing. He defends his "reality radio" style against critics, emphasizing personal growth from past mistakes and calling out societal double standards in NBA and entertainment circles (referencing Diddy's documentary). The rant sparks live chat debates on culture vs. individual blame, with Clay asserting urban issues like fatherless homes (85% in black communities) fuel problems, while urging fixes without racism accusations. Sponsored by Men's Health of Mississippi (promoting TRT for "chasing snow bunnies"), the episode blends humor, visuals, and unfiltered commentary on fame, fidelity, and fumbling success.

In the second hour of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards welcomes Brad White, Executive Director of the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT), for an in-depth discussion on infrastructure challenges and progress. Sponsored by A-1 Gear and Auto, the interview covers work zone safety amid driver distractions like cell phones, with Brad emphasizing the need for patience as "every barrel represents progress" and sharing stories of MDOT workers injured or killed on the job. They delve into the long-standing issue of copper theft from interstate streetlights along I-20, I-55, and I-220 in Jackson's high-crime areas, noting how thieves have repeatedly stripped wiring, leaving dangerous dark stretches. Brad explains MDOT's solutions, including tamper-proof boxes with notifications, partnerships with law enforcement (like Capitol Police), and an ongoing study for advanced designs, potentially including solar options or elevated components, to protect taxpayer investments costing millions in repairs.   The conversation shifts to positive developments, such as record funding from the legislature enabling major projects: widening I-55 from Madison to Gluckstadt with a new Reunion interchange, expansions on Highway 98, I-20 in Warren County, and others like Highway 15 and Lakeland Drive. Brad highlights litter removal efforts, costing millions annually, and promotes MDOT's inmate litter program available to all counties and municipalities. He addresses listener questions on widening Highway 471 in Rankin County (under consideration) and the decline in visible inmate cleanups (due to local partnerships). Throughout, Brad praises legislative support under Governor Reeves, which has infused over $1 billion into capacity projects, reversing decades of underfunding to build safer, more efficient roads for economic growth and public safety. The segment underscores MDOT's role in Mississippi's future, blending critiques of societal issues like littering with optimism about ongoing transformations.  

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show on WYAB FM, host Clay Edwards kicks off with a lively intro montage highlighting life's chaos, cancel culture, and corruption in Jackson, Mississippi. Broadcasting from the Men's Health and Women's Wellness of Mississippi studios, Clay chats about the chilly weather, his impulse to buy a flamethrower (thanks to targeted ads), and upgrades to the show's 4K livestream cameras. He shares personal anecdotes on adapting to cold mornings, his truck woes, and excitement over fixed streetlights along I-20, I-55, and I-220 corridors—long plagued by copper theft in high-crime areas.   Clay dives into a juicy sports scandal: the firing of University of Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore over an alleged affair with a staffer (dubbed a "snow bunny"), including dramatic details of threats and a botched $30 million contract. He ties it to broader cultural critiques on infidelity, hip-hop influences, and societal issues, defending his "reality radio" style against accusations of overgeneralization.   In hour two, Clay interviews Brad White, Executive Director of the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT). They discuss ongoing road projects like widening I-55 from Madison to Gluckstadt, new interchanges, litter cleanup challenges, work zone safety, and efforts to prevent copper theft with tamper-proof tech.

In Episode 1,115 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards kicks off with his signature unfiltered take on current events, diving into political satire with a spotlight on Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett's Senate run in Texas. Clay roasts her latest gaffes, plays cringe-worthy clips (including a rapper's awkward endorsement and Donald Trump's jabs), and calls out what he sees as Democratic hypocrisy—from Crockett's comments on Latino voters to broader cultural critiques.   The show shifts gears to lighter fare: Clay shares personal stories from his '80s concert days (Motley Crue, Poison, and Guns N' Roses nostalgia), pitches advertising spots for local businesses like plumbers and divorce attorneys, and reflects on the show's upcoming 5-year anniversary on WYAB.

In Episode 1114 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards explores why Democrats "hate high testosterone men," framing testosterone as their "kryptonite" based on scientific studies and cultural observations. He cites research showing that men with higher baseline testosterone levels tend to lean conservative or Republican, with weakly affiliated Democrats having about 19% higher testosterone than strong party loyalists—suggesting high-T individuals biologically drift away from progressive ideals.   Administering testosterone can induce a "red shift," improving mood and pushing preferences toward Republican views, as seen in examples like co-host Sean Yurtkuran becoming more conservative with higher T levels.   Edwards argues Democrats are losing young men (only 27% view the party positively vs. 43% for Republicans), as high-T traits like grit, independence, assertiveness, and traditional roles clash with the party's emphasis on "inclusive masculinity" and criticism of "toxic masculinity"—which he sees as code for hating behaviors like competitiveness and stoicism.   He ties this to election dynamics, where testosterone fluctuations influence reactions to wins/losses, and a "red pill" perspective: real women prefer high-T men, making low-T Democratic leaders appear weak and driving admirers rightward.   Examples include high-T figures like Nick Fuentes and JD Vance embodying unfiltered masculinity that repels progressive conformity.

In Episode 1114 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards and guest Andrew Gasser dive into the escalating "conservative media war," highlighting alleged infiltrations by "LGBTQ cuck beta males" and weak figures undermining traditional values. They discuss Milo Yiannopoulos's explosive appearance on Tim Pool's show, where Milo accuses Benny Johnson of being secretly gay based on old BuzzFeed articles like "Let's Be Honest Straight Guys, We All Like Butt Stuff" and "Which President Looks Sexiest in a Swimsuit?"—arguing such content proves hypocrisy in portraying a perfect family image. The duo critiques Candace Owens for urging military members to risk dishonorable discharges and sowing dissension against Turning Point USA (TPUSA), labeling her "evil" and fake for potentially destroying lives and eroding conservatism. They lament Charlie Kirk's death as a loss for TPUSA's leadership, calling his show "dreadfully boring" and the organization "rudderless" without strong, high-testosterone guidance. Gasser emphasizes how figures like Owens and Shapiro plant seeds of doubt, watering down the movement, while Edwards stresses disdain for closeted hypocrites quoting the Bible amid broader infighting threatening Republican unity ahead of midterms.

In the second segment of Episode 1114 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards reflects on how the internet age has created "the dumbest generation of humans," where people used to specialize deeply in one subject—priding himself on "knowing a guy" who was an expert in specific areas like a particular trade or topic—but now everyone knows just a little about everything, enabling quasi-intelligent conversations on dozens of subjects without true depth, often sounding like idiots (himself included). He notes his own specialties in black culture in Jackson, Mississippi, wrestling, NASCAR, and testosterone, while piecing together superficial knowledge elsewhere. Transitioning to conservative media infiltration by "LGBTQ cuck beta males," Edwards discusses discovering allegations about Benny Johnson potentially being gay, based on old BuzzFeed articles he wrote, such as "Let's Be Honest Straight Guys, We All Like Butt Stuff" and "Which President Looks Sexiest in a Swimsuit?"—arguing no straight man would pen such pieces or work for BuzzFeed, and expressing disdain for closeted figures pretending to embody traditional family values while quoting the Bible.

In Episode 1114 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards shares practical health tips for saving money on insurance amid rising costs. He recommends switching to a "major medical" or emergency-only policy (e.g., through agents like Jamie Creel at Shelter Insurance) to cover catastrophic events like cancer or hospital stays, while ditching comprehensive plans with copays for routine care, which he calls a "big rip-off" since cash prices are often cheaper. For everyday needs, he suggests a $200/month membership at Men's Health and Women's Wellness of Mississippi (or similar clinics like New Care) for unlimited doctor's visits, prescriptions, and low-cost treatments (e.g., $10-30 for shots like Decadron, Rocephin, and B12 for sinus infections). He advises using independent pharmacies (e.g., Brandon Discount Drugs or Flora Drugs) as cash customers for better deals on meds, avoiding big chains, and utilizing free GoodRx cards or coupons to beat insurance prices—potentially saving hundreds monthly by piecing together these options for a total around $400/month all-in. Edwards emphasizes shopping around, assuming good health, and building personal doctor relationships for a more efficient, less "assembly-line" experience, noting it's not ideal for those on expensive specialty meds like cancer treatments.

In Episode 1114 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards celebrates free speech on WYAB amid reduced censorship post-Biden era, announces a pivot away from discussing Jackson's issues to focus on evergreen topics like men's health. He promotes sponsors including Men's Health of Mississippi for testosterone screenings and affordable medical memberships, advises ditching high-cost insurance for major medical policies plus independent pharmacies, and declares it "Testosterone Tuesday" with plugs for local eateries and spirits. The show mixes unfiltered talk, health tips, and optimism for a new chapter.

The show heats up with a fiery takedown of conservative media's "beta male" hijacking: Why has the space been overrun by low-T, feminine-energy pundits who couldn't "fight their way out of a wet paper bag"? Clay ranks top figures like Ben Shapiro (super cuck), Tucker Carlson (alpha), and Joe Rogan (definite alpha), calling for more high-testosterone leaders to reclaim the fight. Guest co-host Andrew Gasser joins for hour three, diving into fatherlessness epidemics, the military as a manhood forge (especially for at-risk demographics), and how softened institutions like wrestling and Boy Scouts signal a broader assault on masculinity.

In this raw, no-holds-barred episode, I'm declaring it: I'm done wasting my breath on Jackson's endless cycle of violence and cultural decay. After years of shining a light on the thugs, the rot, and the unsalvageable mess—only to face death threats and see zero change—I'm calling it quits on the topic. These people aren't worth saving, and I'm fed up with the arrogance of gun-toting clowns glorifying their own destruction in documentaries while branding me a racist for pointing it out. Realizing sunlight isn't disinfecting anything here, I'm opting out: no more uttering "black," "culture rot," or "black for a living." I'm above it all, better than the headache, and shifting my focus to self-improvement, red-pill truths for men, and bigger pursuits—leaving the "less than trash" to extinguish themselves while I level up, maintain my frame, and build something worthwhile.

Episode #1113: Pivoting from Burnout – Alpha Energy, Culture Wars, and Media Makeovers In this raw, three-hour motivational Monday edition, host Clay Edwards lays it all bare: after years of battling cancel culture and spotlighting Jackson's systemic chaos, he's burnt out on endless politics and culture war fatigue. Drawing from a gritty documentary on the city's violence-glorifying underbelly, Clay announces a bold pivot—no more dissecting "culture rot" or chasing unsalvageable fixes. "You can't fix stupid," he declares, opting out to focus on self-improvement, red-pill truths, and uplifting men instead. Shaming works on thin-skinned politicians, but not on a "rotten and broken" cycle that's beyond redemption. The show heats up with a fiery takedown of conservative media's "beta male" hijacking: Why has the space been overrun by low-T, feminine-energy pundits who couldn't "fight their way out of a wet paper bag"? Clay ranks top figures like Ben Shapiro (super cuck), Tucker Carlson (alpha), and Joe Rogan (definite alpha), calling for more high-testosterone leaders to reclaim the fight. Guest co-host Andrew Allgasser joins for hour three, diving into fatherlessness epidemics, the military as a manhood forge (especially for at-risk demographics), and how softened institutions like wrestling and Boy Scouts signal a broader assault on masculinity.   Midway, caller Angela (aka MIC Magazine) vents on political disingenuousness, blind loyalty in voting blocs, and the exhaustion of endless cycles—echoing Clay's wit's-end vibe. Sports fans get a nod: Hype for Ole Miss's playoff clash with Tulane (fingers crossed for Georgia next) and Mississippi State's Duke's Mayo Bowl berth on January 2nd, plus live watch party plans at McB's. Wrapping with cultural curveballs, Clay rallies against Netflix's Warner Bros. bid (root for Paramount's hostile takeover to shield icons like Batman from woke twists) and slams the Somali funding scandal in Minnesota—millions funneled to Al-Shabaab terrorists, exposing ignored infiltration. It's unfiltered evolution: From Jackson's soul-sucking grind to forging stronger men and mocking the left's absurd antics (think Antifa's '80s aerobics protest). Strap in—Clay's flipping the script for a fiercer, no-sugar-added reality check.  

Episode 1,112 of The Clay Edwards Show (Friday, December 5, 2025) – Episode Summary Clay opens the show reacting to the breaking news that Netflix has won the bidding war to acquire Warner Brothers Discovery's studio assets (including HBO and the Max streaming service) in a roughly $72 billion deal. He calls it one of the worst possible outcomes for fans of quality entertainment, predicting that Netflix's track record of low-effort originals, abrupt endings, and heavy ideological slant will now infect iconic Warner franchises. He laments the loss of Taylor Sheridan (creator of Yellowstone, Tulsa King, Landman, etc.) from Paramount and worries that further media consolidation will kill competition in both film and professional wrestling (pointing to WWE's existing Netflix deal and the risk that AEW loses its TV home).The bulk of the first hour is spent on hard-hitting cultural and local-crime commentary:Strong criticism of rap/hip-hop culture and its decades-long negative impact on segments of the black community, arguing that stereotypes are earned, not given, and that “race reality is not racism.” Detailed breakdown of a recent car theft and shootout in an upscale, predominantly black Gluckstadt subdivision allegedly committed by four young men from Jackson. Clay compares their mugshots to “Somali pirates” and argues this is the exact reason today's real-estate market in the Jackson metro is driven almost entirely by one factor: how far you can move away from high-crime areas while keeping a reasonable commute. He insists good black families can never fully escape the criminal element in their extended families or social circles, especially around holidays. Second hour shifts to national stories: Celebration of the Trump administration's aggressive military action against fentanyl-laden narco terrorist speedboats, calling it “the war on drugs done right” and mocking Democrats who are defending the traffickers. Breaking coverage of the arrest of January 6 pipe-bomber suspect Brian Cole Jr., a black Democrat with apparent ties to activist circles. Clay hammers CNN for repeatedly calling the suspect “a 30-year-old white man” while his photo was on screen, and calls out local media (specifically WLBT) for completely ignoring the story because it undermines the “white supremacist insurrection” narrative. Other quick hits: David L. Archie caught on video throwing punches at a St. Andrews private-school basketball game (the same security guard who went viral getting punched at last year's Mistletoe Marketplace brawl took the hits again). Strong condemnation of Candace Owens for what Clay calls unhinged, attention-seeking accusations that Turning Point USA staff and leadership were complicit in Charlie Kirk's murder. He reiterates his long-standing opinion that Owens is a grifter who monetized being “the acceptable black conservative” and has now gone off the deep end. Throughout the episode Clay maintains his signature unfiltered, no-sugar-coating style: blunt on crime, culture, media consolidation, the drug war, and political grifters, while repeatedly telling listeners he speaks this way “because I love you and have to live around you.” The show closes with Clay promising to “land the plane” strong and return Monday.

FAFO Champion of the Day – December 4, 2025Winner (by an absolute landslide): Dale Eacks – Kemper County, Mississippi Crime: Impersonating an East Mississippi Drug Task Force agent… and then showing up at the sheriff's office when they called his bluff. The play-by-play:  Dude calls the Kemper County Sheriff's Office claiming to be “Agent Tyler Eacks” with the drug task force in neighboring Lauderdale County.   Says he has hot intel on local drug activity and needs to talk to someone ASAP.   Deputies immediately know no such agent exists. They tell him, “Cool story, bro. Come on down to the office and let's chat.”   Any normal wannabe-cop LARPer hangs up and deletes the call log.   Not our champion. Dale/Tyler actually drives to the sheriff's office, walks in, and doubles down: “I'm an undercover agent, here's my info.”   Hands over a wallet with zero badges, zero credentials, and (surprise) his real name is Dale, not Tyler.   Instant cuffs, charged with impersonating a law enforcement officer, $50,000 bond. Sheriff's statement basically wrote the trophy engraving for us: “We will not tolerate anyone playing cop for attention or convenience. ”This man took “F*ck Around,” hit the turbo button, and slammed face-first into “Find Out” in under an hour. He didn't just bring a knife to a gunfight; he brought a fake badge to the sheriff's office and asked for a participation trophy. Dale Eacks, come on down and claim your belt. 2025 FAFO Champion of the Day – undisputed, undefeated, and probably still confused. 

Insufferable Turd of the Day Award Today's coveted golden toilet bowl goes to none other than William “Polo” Edwards, former Jackson-area radio personality, Facebook loudmouth, and convicted murderer. Polo (once a co-host on the same show years ago) is now serving life for shooting and killing a man in a dispute over a woman. After burning every bridge in local media, allegedly taking cash from the Lumumba camp to attack anyone who criticized the previous mayor, and spending years race-baiting and threatening people online, he finally crossed the one line you can't uncross. Now he's appealing his murder conviction, claiming the judge violated his rights by… making him represent himself after he fired his own attorney two weeks before trial and refused to get a new one. Classic Polo: break every rule, play the eternal victim, cry about the consequences. Host's closing words on the matter (delivered with a grin): “He felt ten-foot-tall and bulletproof for years, running his mouth and chasing clout. Turns out he wasn't. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Enjoy Parchman, Polo. Kiss my entire ass. ”Turd of the Day: thoroughly earned, fully flushed. 

Street Preacher Segment – Summary A group of aggressive street preachers (the type who stand on milk crates with bullhorns and large signs showing aborted fetuses) regularly show up at public events and venues around the area — the Brandon Amphitheater during concerts, restaurant patios in Fondren, etc. — and scream at patrons, calling women whores, Jezebels, drunkards, and telling everyone they're going to hell. After repeated incidents (including at least one preacher getting punched in the face), the city of Brandon passed an ordinance requiring them to preach from a designated protest zone away from the amphitheater entrance. The preachers refused, returned to the entrance, got arrested, and sued, claiming the ordinance violates their First Amendment free-speech and religious-liberty rights. The case worked its way up and is now headed to the U.S. Supreme Court. Host's take (very clearly stated):He is 100% against these preachers and 100% supports the city's restriction.   “This is not legitimate evangelism; this is theater kids putting on a show trying to provoke people into hitting them so they can sue and play victim.”   He compares it to “First Amendment auditors” — attention-seeking grifters, not sincere believers.   Calls what they scream “fighting words” that violate personal space and are designed to start physical confrontations.   “You have the absolute right to your free speech, but you do not have the right to scream it two feet from my family's face while we're trying to eat dinner or enjoy a concert.”   Points out that moving them across the street or to a designated zone (the same way the amphitheater bans firearms for everyone) is a perfectly legal time/place/manner restriction, not censorship.   Says the behavior makes Christians and Christianity look terrible and drives people away from faith rather than bringing anyone closer to God.   “Nobody has ever walked past these guys getting called a whore and thought, ‘You know what? They're right. I'm skipping the concert and going to church Sunday.' Not one single person.” He acknowledged he would fully support the same preachers protesting outside abortion clinics, big-box stores pushing transgender products to kids, or even adult venues doing genuinely harmful things — but screaming insults at random families at a country-music concert or on a restaurant patio crosses the line into pure harassment, not ministry. Bottom line from the host: Their free-speech rights are not being violated; they just lost the right to do it right at the entrance and start fights. He hopes SCOTUS upholds the ordinance.
