Reactions from mayors (wearing "Blackness Today, Blackness Tomorrow" shirts) claim racism, but Clay calls BS—violent crime isn't down; it's underreported.

### Episode 1,038: Tommy Duff for Governor? Black Mayors Mad at Trump, and Mississippi's Future on the Line **Dive into the raw, unfiltered world of Mississippi politics and culture with Clay Edwards in Episode 1,038 of The Clay Edwards Show!** Strap in for a no-holds-barred discussion on potential gubernatorial candidates, the state of Republican leadership, and the backlash from Black mayors across America to Donald Trump's crime-fighting promises. From local events to national controversies, Clay breaks it all down with his signature reality radio style—award-winning, provocative, and always breaking rules when necessary. In this packed episode: - **Life in Central Mississippi**: Clay kicks things off with a personal update on his shift from Rankin County roots to spending more time in Madison County (hello, Flora!). He shares why downtown Brandon traffic pales in comparison to Gluckstadt's chaos and plugs his expanding presence on Rumble for short-form content. Streaming live on Facebook, X, YouTube (@SaveJXN), and Rumble (@ClayEdwardsShow). - **Rankin County Republican Dinner Recap**: Clay recounts his last-minute invite to the Lincoln Reagan Trump Dinner at The Refuge in Flowood. He chats about rubbing elbows with movers and shakers like Pearl Mayor Jake Windham, Dylan Chappell, and keynote speaker Tommy Duff (of the Duff Brothers Tire Mart empire). Highlights include the venue's stunning transformation and how Rankin County has evolved from hosting events in Jackson to having multiple high-end spots like The Refuge, Clyde Muse Center, and City Hall Live. - **Tommy Duff: Governor Material?**: Clay dives deep into Tommy Duff's potential run for governor in 2027. Is his billionaire resume in economic development (recruiting Yokohama and Continental Tires to Mississippi) enough? Clay weighs the pros—self-made success, Christian-adjacent values (he's Mormon, but that's not a dealbreaker for Clay)—against the cons: short stature, softer voice, and ability to connect with blue-collar voters or left-leaning Democrats. How does he stack up against big personalities like Andy Gipson, Shad White, or Gerard Gibert? Clay polls listeners: Does height, voice, or faith matter in a male gubernatorial candidate? Women callers chime in wanting a "badass, man's man" leader. Plus, thoughts on other rising stars like Michael Watson (running for higher office) and Chris McDaniel. - **Election Integrity & Mississippi Politics**: Clay touches on Secretary of State Michael Watson's role in election integrity (numbers and national recognition say he's delivering, despite critics), district gerrymandering keeping figures like Bennie Thompson in power, and why economic development + brain drain prevention should top the 2027 agenda over school choice. - **National Pivot: Black Mayors Furious at Trump**: Hour 2 heats up as Clay tackles "Black for a living" race grifters melting down over Trump's pledge to "clean up" crime-ridden cities like DC, Baltimore, and Oakland with military support. Reactions from mayors (wearing "Blackness Today, Blackness Tomorrow" shirts) claim racism, but Clay calls BS—violent crime isn't down; it's underreported.

From women seeking alpha-male governors to debates on Napoleon syndrome, Clay reads and reacts live. Plus, Clay's personal transformation journey: Before-and-after photos of his 80-pound weight loss via discipline, testosterone, and semaglutide (text "Clay" to 601-800-5031 for a free screening). **Why Listen/Watch?** If you're tired of sugar-coated talk radio, this is your daily dose of reality.

MASSIVE 3 HOUR MEGA SHOW (Ep #1,037)

Flair on The Clay Edwards Show: Wrestling Icon Talks Legacy, Cannabis, and Life

At Southern Sky Brands in Canton, MS, wrestling legend Ric Flair joined host Clay Edwards for a lively interview blending nostalgia, business, and personal insights.

Edwards, a fan since childhood, shared a vivid memory: watching TBS wrestling at 5:05 p.m., where the Four Horsemen broke Dusty Rhodes' leg. His grandfather called Flair "the dirtiest motherfucker in the game"—a compliment in Flair's eyes. At 48, Edwards thanked Flair for decades of memories.

Flair's favorite era? NWA in the 1980s. He recalled Jackson Coliseum shows and nights at the Reservoir, bars like The Dock (now gone) and Martin's (still thriving).

The chat focused on Flair's "Ric Flair Drip" cannabis line with Southern Sky. Overwhelmed by the facility's quality, Flair praised the team and sales across 200 dispensaries. Edwards, after touring, called it true medical-grade; if he partook, it'd be Flair's brand over competitors.

Entry into cannabis came via a late associate and Mike Tyson, a friend since the '80s. Tyson, still in shape post-Jake Paul fight, partnered with Flair. Flair stays fit, deadlifting 400 lbs.

Being Flair means constant fame—photos everywhere, but 99% positive. "Living the gimmick" has pitfalls, like tax issues, but he enjoys it. Edwards dubbed him a true icon.

Hulk Hogan's recent death added poignancy; Flair plans Biloxi visits before Sept. 2, appearances in 14 states, CarShield ads with Ice-T, and autograph sessions.

WOO Energy drink eyes China and Thailand markets. Travel tales included urging Edwards to visit Malaysia; Edwards shared his flying fear and brief LA stint.

Excited for Ric Flair Drip's growth, Flair credits Southern Sky's promotion. He appreciates Mississippi's warmth (and drinking prowess over Canadians).

On WWE's ESPN deal, Flair's humble: they're printing money. Hogan's decline—surgeries left him diminished—sparked anxiety; Flair's 2017 crisis (organ failure, ICU, stoma) led to life-support limits.

Edwards thanked Flair, eager for more MS visits. Flair reciprocated, honored to share his story.

In this electrifying episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards kicks off with an unforgettable recap of his recent interview and hangout with wrestling legend Ric Flair. Fresh off a high-energy day that included personal stories about shared health challenges like colostomy experiences, signing the FAFO Championship belt, and enjoying casual meals at local spots, Clay reflects on the thrill of meeting a childhood hero—especially in light of recent losses like Hulk Hogan. He shares behind-the-scenes details, from Flair's larger-than-life personality to switching from beer to mixed drinks to keep up, all while emphasizing the importance of chasing dreams and ignoring naysayers who try to pull you back with "crabs in a bucket" mentality. Shifting gears into current events, Clay dives into a heated discussion on a disturbing incident in Copiah County, where firefighters responding to a deadly wreck were allegedly assaulted by a crowd, including the father of the victim who later turned himself in on felony charges. Clay calls for accountability, highlighting the tragedy of the crash tied to street racing and urging equal outrage over violence regardless of race. He stresses the need for consistent application of the law, critiquing double standards in media coverage and public reactions to interracial crimes. The episode takes a deeper turn into societal issues, exploring fatigue over perceived biases in hate crime prosecutions and law enforcement narratives. Clay revisits past cases, like the 2015 beating death of Eric Hambrick and the 2017 murder of Chelsea Kirchen, flipping the script to question how reactions would differ if roles were reversed. He critiques cultural excuses for criminality, touches on the impact of naming conventions from Freakonomics, and calls out inconsistencies in stories amplified by groups like BLM, advocating for body cams as tools for truth. Wrapping up with a mix of humor and hard truths, Clay encourages listeners to fuel success with negativity from haters, pursue growth, and demand fairness in justice. It's a no-holds-barred FAFO Friday full of raw insights, personal anecdotes, and calls for real change—unfiltered talk that challenges the status quo and inspires action.

Strap in for Episode 1,035 of The Clay Edwards Show – the most incendiary radio show in America! Host Clay Edwards kicks off with unfiltered talk, explaining he's a news reactor, not an investigative journalist, and shouts out Kingfish for deep dives. Dive into the hilarious yet tasteless Mississippi Mud Monsters' blunder: they posted pics with wrestling legend Ric Flair, mistakenly calling him Hulk Hogan (who just passed away – Flair flew straight from the funeral!). Clay roasts their apology, which throws a young marketer under the bus, and ties it to wrestling's "identity crisis" theme.

Clay shares his excitement for interviewing Ric Flair today (airing tomorrow!), reminiscing about childhood wrestling memories with his grandfather watching Flair and the Four Horsemen on TBS. He draws parallels between politics and pro wrestling – good guys vs. heels, like Trump body-slamming Hillary. Personal growth shines through: Clay turned down partying with Flair last night at Martin's Downtown to stay sharp, reflecting on starting the show at 42 after selling cars, sacrificing relationships for success, and crediting faith for his turnaround.

Health takes center stage: A CDC report reveals Americans get over 50% of calories from ultra-processed foods linked to obesity, diabetes, and cancer. RFK Jr. calls it poisoning; Clay slams excuses like "healthy eating is expensive" and debates banning sweets from EBT to protect taxpayer investments in future healthcare. Listener calls highlight soy's estrogen effects on kids (the "soy boy" phenomenon), feminizing youth, and higher breast cancer risks in certain groups.

Sponsors get love: Men's Health for testosterone boosts, Mazda of Jackson, McBee's for lunch specials, and more. Clay motivates: Chase dreams – it's never too late!

Black men are attacking white people without consequence all around American, and even here in Mississippi. We broke down 3 major stories that prove my point!!

As we've found out more about the Copiah County firefighters being assaulted after a drag racing accident took the life of a young man over the weekend I'm shocked!!

I've now officially banned all black, white and others who've ever used the N-word under any circumstances from ever appearing on the Clay Edwards Show!!

Mississippi has a syphilis epidemic thanks to Hinds County having the highest rate of STD's than any other county in the entire United States.
