MONDAY - FULL 3 HOUR SHOW (Ep #1,107)

A high-energy, three-hour Monday “Motivation Monday” edition of the show, broadcast live on November 24, 2025, with host Clay Edwards firing on all cylinders from open to close.   Hour 1 – “This is going to help the next generation of nurses and teachers” Clay tackles the viral outrage over the Trump administration’s decision (part of the “One Big Beautiful Bill”) to remove nursing and teaching from the federal list of “professional degrees.” He calmly explains this has zero effect on current nurses or teachers — it only applies to future students — and is designed to stop universities from charging $150k–$250k for degrees that lead to $70k–$100k starting salaries.   Using real Mississippi numbers (Hinds Community College ADN vs. Ole Miss BSN), Clay had Grok compile the data), he shows a two-year associate-degree nurse can finish for $13k–$16k total, start working immediately at roughly the same pay as a four-year BSN grad, and then bridge online to a BSN for another $4k–$10k while already earning. The policy, he argues, forces schools to cut tuition bloat and protects the next wave of nurses and teachers from crushing debt. He repeatedly stresses this is “tough-love protection, not an attack on nurses.”   Hour 2 – National stories, FAFO awards, and more nursing talk with Andrew Gosser Guest Andrew “All Gosser, No Brakes” Gosser joins for the full hour.   -They hand out an “F’d Around and Found Out” championship to an Iowa man who flashed drivers on the interstate “for excitement” and got arrested two days in a row.   -New recurring segment “Insufferable Turd of the Day” is born — inaugural winner: singer Chris Daughtry for publicly whining that AI images showed him paying tribute to the late Charlie Kirk and declaring he does not stand with MAGA or anything “rooted in bigotry or exclusivity.”   -More on the nursing/teaching degree change; Andrew points out that in earlier generations many teachers were returning WWII/Korea/Vietnam veterans who brought real-world discipline to classrooms — a stark contrast to today. -Quick hits on Democrats suddenly memory-holing their 2020 “burn down police stations” rhetoric, Marjorie Taylor Greene rumors, and Trump’s vow to “obliterate the Deep State.” Hour 3 – Pearl Boxing club takes over the studio Two undefeated heavyweight pros from Pearl Boxing Club — Keyshawn “Big Baby” Davis (11-0, 11 KOs, going for 12-0) and firefighter Paul John Hogan (3-0, going for 4-0) — plus assistant coach Ernie Hillard and his 8-year-old son Buddy join Clay live.   They promote their fights this Saturday (Nov 29, 2025) on a card in Lafayette, Louisiana, talk training camps, and give their takes on the current boxing landscape (love the massive Saudi-backed fights, mixed feelings on Jake Paul spectacle fights, but agree the huge undercards on Netflix are growing the sport).   Clay and the coaches emphasize the real mission of Pearl Boxing Club: $50/month (sign-up fee covers first three months), open to kids 7+, teens, adults, and fitness-only members who never want to spar. Multiple stories of kids gaining confidence, getting off ADHD meds, improving grades, and parents seeing dramatic behavioral turnarounds. Clay floats the idea of listener-sponsored “scholarships” to cover dues for kids whose families can’t afford it — coaches immediately say they’ll never turn anyone away and are happy to work something out.   The show ends with Clay challenging listeners to take the “90-day Pearl Boxing Club transformation challenge” for ≈$215 total and promising they’ll look completely different in the mirror by February.   Classic Clay Edwards mix: unapologetic conservative commentary, statistical deep dives to fight misinformation, juvenile humor, new recurring awards, and a heartfelt push to get kids (and adults) into combat-sports training for discipline, confidence, and health.
