The Clay Edwards Show

Clay turns the show into a fun Throwback segment by asking listeners: What is your favorite movie from the 1990s?

Clay and longtime friend / former co-host Shaun Yurtkuran (former Hinds County Assistant DA and top criminal defense attorney) dive into Mississippi’s new 50/50 joint custody law and the push for single-party (no-fault) divorce.

Episode 1189 – Shaun Yurtkuran Debunks the Brady-Giglio List

Clay is joined by longtime friend and former co-host Shaun Yurtkuran — former Hinds County Assistant District Attorney and one of Mississippi’s top criminal defense attorneys.

Shaun breaks down the so-called “Brady-Giglio List” that some activists have been pushing, explaining what the actual Supreme Court cases (Brady v. Maryland and Giglio) really mean, when material must be turned over, and why the way it’s being weaponized locally is largely a myth and a grift.

He draws from his years of experience on both sides of the bench to explain why random complaints or “I don’t like this cop” claims don’t automatically land officers on any legitimate list, and why the entire narrative being sold online doesn’t hold up in real courtroom practice.

A clear, no-nonsense legal takedown of one of the most overhyped topics in local activist circles

Longtime friend and former co-host Shaun Yurtkuran (former Hinds County Assistant District Attorney and one of Mississippi’s top criminal defense attorneys) joins Clay in studio. They discuss the controversial “Brady-Giglio List,” Medical Marijuana DUI's in Mississippi & Mississippi's potential new law giving 50/50 custody to both parents as default judgment in divorce cases and other hot legal topics.

Episode 1189 – The Clay Edwards Show (FAFO Friday with Guest Shaun Yurtkuran

It’s a full-throttle FAFO Friday as Clay hands out several well-deserved FAFO Championships — including one particularly nasty case involving a man and the family dog.

The show also features a fun Throwback segment and plenty of listener interaction.

In Hour 2, longtime friend and former co-host Shaun Yurtkuran (former Hinds County Assistant District Attorney and one of Mississippi’s top criminal defense attorneys) joins Clay in studio. They discuss the controversial “Brady-Giglio List,” the firing of Pam Bondi, and other hot legal topics.

Shaun also officially launches his brand-new weekly talk show, “Both Sides of the Bench,” airing every Saturday morning at 11:00 AM on 103.9 WYAB — a full commercial-free hour where he breaks down the biggest stories of the week through the lens of his experience as both a prosecutor and a defense attorney.

Unfiltered, wide-ranging, and exactly what you expect on a Friday with Clay Edwards.

Clay and guest Shaun Yurtkuran (former Hinds County Assistant DA and top criminal defense attorney) break down Mississippi’s medical marijuana DUI law.

Clay opens the show talking about the war on masculinity and plays a clip of a Jackson City Councilman (Kevin Parkinson) “libsplaining” the new rules and restrictions for the Hal’s St. Paddy’s Day Parade. He calls out the councilman for refusing to acknowledge the real reason for the changes — culture rot and violence — and instead blaming broken glass and grills.

The show features a fun Throwback Thursday segment with old newspaper ads from the Mississippi Coliseum in the 1980s, including a wild Mid-South Wrestling card with Junkyard Dog vs. Hacksaw Butch Reed in a “ghetto street fight,” plus the time Bob Barker brought his own version of The Price is Right to Jackson.

Clay also discusses low testosterone in men, the cycle of weak men creating hard times, and takes plenty of live calls and texts from listeners.

Raw, unfiltered, and all over the map — exactly what you expect from a Clay Edwards morning.

Clay Edwards kicks off the hour with a hilarious April Fools’ prank before diving into a lively rant on Southern cooking stereotypes — specifically the viral memes comparing “Thanksgiving at Black family houses vs. White family houses.”

Clay pushes back hard on the myth that white people boil their macaroni and cheese (he insists it’s always baked in the South) and fires back at claims that white folks don’t season their food. He contrasts Southern baked mac & cheese with what he calls twice-fried, twice-smoked, flavor-cooked-out chicken and ribs common in some kitchens. The conversation gets spicy as Clay argues it’s not really a Black vs. White issue — it’s a **Southern culture** thing versus everyone else.

Kingfish joins in the fun, sharing his own takes on local barbecue joints, gas station BBQ versus sit-down restaurants, and why some places overcook or under-season. The duo swaps stories about Sweet Daddy’s, Sacred Ground, Full Moon Barbecue, and what makes good ribs versus tough, jaw-workout ribs.

This segment is full of laughs, unfiltered Southern food talk, and Clay’s signature “if you don’t like it, get the f*** from round here” energy as he defends Southern cooking traditions while roasting bad habits on all sides.

**Guest:** Kingfish (Jackson Jambalaya)

**Focus:** Black vs. White cooking memes, baked mac & cheese debate, seasoning wars, overcooked chicken and ribs, and why it’s really Southern culture vs. everyone else.

If you enjoy raw, funny Southern commentary on food, culture, and memes — with zero political correctness — this hour is pure entertainment.

Clay Edwards reacts to the recent nationwide “No Kings” protests against President Trump and his policies — including the war in Iran and immigration enforcement.

They spotlight a popular meme making the rounds: “Fun fact: Businesses in America have never had to board up their windows because of Republican protesters.” Clay contrasts this with the damage and boarded-up storefronts often seen after left-wing demonstrations, pointing out the irony of anti-monarchy protesters (some waving hammer-and-sickle flags) while highlighting the lack of similar chaos or fear from conservative rallies.

The conversation takes a humorous turn as they poke at the contradictions — including liberal “No Kings” messaging clashing with certain cultural claims of royalty — and discuss why one side’s protests routinely lead to precautions like plywood while the other’s do not. They also touch on the broader pattern of Democrat-led “death culture” in cities versus safer, cleaner Republican areas where businesses don’t live in fear of riots.

This segment delivers sharp, no-filter commentary on political double standards, protest culture, and why some demonstrations end with businesses boarding up while others do not.

**Guest:** Kingfish (Jackson Jambalaya)

**Focus:** “No Kings” protests, Republican vs. left-wing protest outcomes, businesses boarding up windows, political hypocrisy, and meme culture.

If you enjoy unapologetic takes on current events, media spin, and the real differences in how protests play out across America, this one’s for you.

In one of the most entertaining curveballs of the show, Clay Edwards throws a wild question at Kingfish from JacksonJambalaya.com: What does he think about Matt Gaetz claiming he was briefed by a U.S. Army official on secret alien hybrid breeding programs?

Clay plays the clip where Gaetz describes being told that captured aliens were breeding with humans to create a hybrid race capable of intergalactic communication. Kingfish delivers his classic no-nonsense reaction — complete with sharp wit and skepticism.

The conversation quickly turns into a hilarious and honest back-and-forth about aliens, government whistleblowers, abduction stories, and why credible evidence seems to have dried up in the smartphone era. Clay and Kingfish debate whether there’s any truth to the wild claims, share their thoughts on the broader UFO/UAP conversation, and contrast it with classic Coast to Coast AM-style radio lore (including time travelers and Art Bell’s legendary interviews).

This light-hearted detour provides a perfect break from serious Mississippi politics, showcasing the unfiltered banter and humor that makes the show unique.

**Guest:** Kingfish (Jackson Jambalaya)

**Focus:** Matt Gaetz alien briefing, human-alien hybrid breeding programs, UFO skepticism, and classic conspiracy radio stories.
