The Karol Markowicz Show: Stop Trying, Start Doing: Carla Ondrasik on Taking Action and Finding Real Motivation

Dishonest Dems
 
A deep dive into the political fallout from the recently ended government shutdown, framing it as a strategic misfire by Democrats. The hosts argue that the shutdown was a cynical attempt to secure election gains and force permanent funding for temporary Obamacare subsidies, originally enacted during the COVID-era American Rescue Plan. They highlight commentary from Steven Miller and Hakeem Jeffries, dissecting the partisan blame game over healthcare costs and the broader implications for the 2026 elections.
 
If They Could Do This to You...
 
Conservative activist Robby Starbuck shares a disturbing account of AI defamation. Starbuck reveals that Google’s AI platforms, Bard and Gemini, falsely accused him of heinous crimes, fabricating court records, media articles, and even statements from public figures like JD Vance and President Trump. The discussion highlights the dangers of AI misinformation, the lack of accountability from tech giants, and the broader implications for political candidates and everyday Americans. Starbuck’s lawsuit against Google is positioned as a landmark case in the fight for AI transparency and fairness.
 
Chances of War
 
The show then pivots to foreign policy with guest Steven Yates, senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation, who recently returned from a diplomatic tour across Asia with Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. Yates offers firsthand insights into U.S. engagement in the Indo-Pacific, emphasizing the Trump administration’s proactive stance against Chinese aggression. He praises Japan’s new leadership, discusses Taiwan’s strategic importance, and warns of the economic and geopolitical fallout if China were to invade. Yates also reacts to breaking news: China’s agreement to halt fentanyl precursor exports following direct negotiations led by FBI Director Kash Patel. He calls for even stronger measures, including labeling fentanyl precursors as weapons of mass destruction.
 
Cha Cha Change
 
The U.S. Mint ends production of the penny. Clay and Buck debate the future of physical currency in an increasingly cashless society, citing the high cost of coin production and the shift toward digital payments like Apple Pay, Venmo, and Zelle. They explore the implications for privacy, government tracking, and economic behavior, sparking a lively conversation with listeners about the sentimental and practical value of coins.

Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Nov 12 2025

Hour 1 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the political fallout from the recently ended government shutdown, framing it as a strategic misfire by Democrats. The hosts argue that the shutdown was a cynical attempt to secure election gains and force permanent funding for temporary Obamacare subsidies, originally enacted during the COVID-era American Rescue Plan. They highlight commentary from Steven Miller and Hakeem Jeffries, dissecting the partisan blame game over healthcare costs and the broader implications for the 2026 elections.
 
The episode features a comprehensive critique of the U.S. healthcare system, emphasizing the broken nature of insurance markets, the inflationary impact of government subsidies, and the lack of consumer choice. Clay and Buck explore how Obamacare has failed to deliver affordability, instead enriching insurance companies and burdening younger Americans. They discuss the economic strain caused by aging demographics and the overuse of medical procedures driven by litigation fears. The hosts also spotlight GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy as potential game-changers in reducing obesity-related healthcare costs, advocating for government subsidies to expand access.
 
In a media analysis segment, the show examines the timing of renewed Epstein-related stories, suggesting they are a deliberate distraction orchestrated by Democrats and legacy media to shift attention away from the shutdown debacle and smear Donald Trump. Clay and Buck reject the narrative, calling it baseless and politically motivated.
Additional topics include the inefficiencies of medical bureaucracy, the potential for AI to streamline healthcare paperwork, and the need for Republicans—especially Trump—to present clear healthcare reform plans ahead of the midterms. The hour wraps with lighter commentary on the phasing out of the penny, sparking a humorous debate on the future of physical currency and digital tracking.

Hour 1 - Dishonest Dems

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of cultural commentary, political analysis, and listener engagement, anchored by the trending topic of the U.S. Mint ending production of the penny. The hosts debate the future of physical currency in an increasingly cashless society, citing the high cost of coin production and the shift toward digital payments like Apple Pay, Venmo, and Zelle. They explore the implications for privacy, government tracking, and economic behavior, sparking a lively conversation with listeners about the sentimental and practical value of coins.
 
A standout moment includes a powerful caller story from a woman who saved over a thousand dollars in pennies to escape an abusive marriage, underscoring the real-world impact of small change and the importance of financial autonomy. The segment blends humor and seriousness, drawing parallels to pop culture references like Breaking Bad and Shawshank Redemption to illustrate the physical burden and symbolic power of cash.
 
The hour also features a spirited discussion on the rise of viral political figures, focusing on Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett. Clay and Buck analyze her media presence and messaging style, debating whether her outspoken rhetoric helps or hurts the Democratic Party. They compare her trajectory to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and highlight the growing influence of social media in shaping political narratives.
 
Additional topics include the decline of unpaid internships, the evolution of tipping culture, and the nostalgia of retail jobs in the pre-digital era. The hosts share personal anecdotes from their early careers, including retail work and internships at major institutions, offering insight into generational shifts in work and compensation.
 

Toward the end of the hour, Clay and Buck preview upcoming guests for Hour 3, including Steve Yates—fresh off a diplomatic tour in Asia—and Robby Starbuck, who will discuss AI misinformation and its impact on personal reputation. They also share book recommendations, highlighting historical novels like Gates of Fire and Killer Angels, and reflect on their reading habits as they age.
