| 0:00.0 | I'm Maria Konnikova. And I'm Nate Silver. And our new podcast, Risky Business, is a show about making better decisions. We're both journalists who moonlight as poker players. And that's the lens we're going to use to approach this entire show. We're going to be discussing everything from high-stakes poker to personal questions. Like whether I should call a plumber or fix my shower myself. And of course, |
| 0:22.2 | we'll be talking about the election too. Listen on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever |
| 0:27.4 | you listen to podcasts. Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show podcast. |
| 0:35.7 | Welcome in everybody, Wednesday edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in, everybody. Wednesday edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show kicks off right now. |
| 0:42.5 | My friends, great things happening when it comes to Trump 2.0, the next administration. |
| 0:50.8 | We're seeing more and more of his picks. |
| 0:54.0 | We'll give you the latest on who's going to be doing what, why it matters, what we know about these individuals. |

| 1:20.8 | We'll break down where Pete Hegseth, Elon Musk, Vivek, Vivek, Ramoswamy, John Ratcliffe, where all of them are fitting, where these |
| 1:31.0 | chessboard pieces are going as of the last 24 hours. I'm very encouraged by all this. I would tell |
| 1:38.6 | you if I wasn't. I think that this is really showing you that they mean business with this administration. |
| 1:46.7 | There is no learning curve, and that's important because, right, Clay, you agree, 18 months. |
| 1:52.0 | They got 18 months to do huge things after that. |
| 1:54.3 | It all turns into, oh, what about the midterms? |
| 1:57.0 | And then it turns into Trump's a lame duck and 18 months to save the country. That has to |
| 2:02.4 | be the mantra. And maybe 18 is too generous. It might be one year, right? It might be 12 months. |
| 2:08.5 | And this is where a lot of people said, okay, how is Trump 2.0 going to be different than Trump |
| 2:13.7 | 1.0? Buck, Trump 1.0 was a holy crap, we won. |
