The Chris Cuomo Project

Chris Cuomo

The Chris Cuomo Project is the official podcast of award-winning veteran broadcast journalist Chris Cuomo. Chris’ independent voice provides listeners with an up-close view of politics, global affairs, and American culture from a vantage point uniquely shaped by decades of insider experience.

Every Tuesday, Chris presents his signature take on today’s pressing current events — and explores how these stories are being covered by all sides of the media — through in-depth interviews with newsmakers, tastemakers, and other influential figures.

On Thursdays, Chris shares insights into subjects that deeply matter to him personally, and answers YouTube comments and listener phone calls.

Free from the constraints of a traditional media organization, The Chris Cuomo Project is home to independents, free agents, and those who don’t fit nicely on one side or the other.

Let’s get after it.

What Comedians Understand That the Media Doesn't
Why do comedians so often see the culture more clearly than the people paid to cover it? Chris Cuomo sits down with three of the sharpest comedic minds working today for conversations that go well past the jokes — about what's really happening in media, money, and what you're still allowed to say. Tim Dillon (comedian and podcast host, "The Tim Dillon Show") argues that cancel culture burned out because ideological purity is exhausting — and that the real credibility crisis belongs to the "expert" class, who failed on everything from Iraq to the pandemic and lost the public's trust. He and Cuomo get into why audiences now reward authenticity over corporate media, and why "agreeable nihilism" became the American mood. Adam Friedland (comedian and podcast host, "The Adam Friedland Show") gets honest about money and precarity — the middle-class squeeze that politics ignores while catering to the extremes — and how he taught himself the craft of interviewing by studying Howard Stern and leaning into self-deprecation. It's a look at ambition, purpose, and why he stopped coasting. Max Amini (comedian and actor, @MaxAmini) breaks down where the real red lines in comedy are — why fear holds artists back, why authenticity always wins out, and how he navigates what can and can't be said performing across wildly different cultures, from America to the Middle East.

The 7 Deadly Sins Of Donald Trump
Chris Cuomo breaks down what he calls Donald Trump’s “seven deadly sins,” using pride, wrath, envy, greed, gluttony, lust, and sloth as a framework for examining the president’s conduct and the direction of his administration. Cuomo connects the seven sins to Trump’s approach to ICE and the Constitution, political opponents, personal enrichment, the war in Iran, and the use of presidential power. He also explains why he believes the signs point to a more serious problem surrounding future elections and whether the country’s constitutional guardrails will hold.

America Is Losing Its Grip On The World
Josh Rogin (Lead Global Security Analyst, WP Intelligence, and and Columnist, The Washington Post) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss Trump’s handling of the war in Iran, the consequences of America’s changing role in the world, and why Rogin believes the U.S. keeps getting distracted from the long-term challenge posed by China. Rogin explains why he sees few good options remaining in Iran, how declining American influence could create opportunities for adversaries, and why Taiwan’s dominance of advanced semiconductor manufacturing makes the U.S.-China relationship increasingly consequential. They also discuss the failures of American foreign policy, the lessons of 9/11, political polarization, and what the next generation of American leadership could mean for the country’s role abroad.

D.L. Hughley Says Trump Is America
D.L. Hughley (Actor, Comedian, and Host, “The D.L. Hughley Show”) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss why he believes Donald Trump reflects who America really is and why the country may have reached “rock bottom.” Hughley and Cuomo dig into race, civil rights, immigration, political division, and the historical forces that continue to shape American politics. Hughley also argues that Trump and his supporters are now confronting the results of the policies they wanted, and explains why acknowledging where the country is may be necessary before it can move forward.

How You Actually Beat Trump
Heading into the midterms, what actually beats Trumpism — and is the two-party establishment even capable of it? Chris Cuomo brings together three of the sharpest and most different voices in American politics to argue over what's really broken and what actually wins. Marjorie Taylor Greene (former U.S. Representative for Georgia's 14th Congressional District) details the falling-out that ended her alliance with Donald Trump — the White House phone call in which she says he warned her "friends are going to get hurt" if the Epstein files came out, the death threats against her family, and the loyalty demands that led her to conclude the movement had become a cult and the whole system is broken. James Carville (Democratic strategist and political commentator) makes the case that Trump is an existential threat that calls for scorched-earth tactics, and spars with Cuomo over the better path to a majority — hammering Trump as the most destructive figure in the country, or winning back voters by telling them "you're right about what's wrong, and here's who actually fixes it." Brian Tyler Cohen (YouTube and podcast host, "No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen," and author, "The Day After: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World") argues Democrats are institutionalists to a fault — too precious about the filibuster and the norms while the other side barrels through them — and that the only way to beat the fear-mongering is to seize power and actually deliver for people.

What They’re Still Not Telling Us About UAPs
What do we actually know about UAPs — and what is the government still keeping from the public? Chris Cuomo revisits some of his most revealing conversations about unexplained phenomena, extraterrestrial life, government secrecy, and the evidence behind extraordinary claims. Neil deGrasse Tyson (astrophysicist, “StarTalk” podcast host, and author, “Take Me to Your Leader: Perspectives on Your First Alien Encounter”) makes the case for scientific skepticism, questioning the reliability of eyewitness testimony and historical alien-abduction claims while explaining why extraordinary assertions require objective evidence rather than belief. Dan Farah (director and producer, “The Age of Disclosure”) discusses claims from government and intelligence officials about advanced UAP technology, alleged crash-retrieval and reverse-engineering programs, secrecy from Congress and the public, and unexplained activity around military bases and nuclear sites — including why even a human adversary behind some of these objects would represent a major national-security problem. Jeremy Corbell (investigative journalist and co-host, “Weaponized” podcast) examines military UAP footage, the extraordinary capabilities some objects appear to demonstrate, the growing difficulty of separating authentic evidence from AI-generated imagery, and the risks whistleblowers have taken to push the government toward greater transparency.

Trump Picked The Wrong Fight With Canada
Kevin O’Leary (investor, entrepreneur, and Shark, ABC’s “Shark Tank”) joins Chris Cuomo for a wide-ranging conversation about Donald Trump’s economic challenges heading into the midterms, the escalating trade fight with Canada, and what America needs to compete in the AI and energy race. O’Leary argues that despite strong markets and corporate performance, Trump has a problem at the kitchen table: small-business owners and everyday Americans are still feeling the effects of high energy, food, and operating costs. He explains what he thinks Trump could change before November, including easing tariffs and focusing more directly on the economic pressures facing small businesses and the heartland. Chris and Kevin also dig into Trump’s increasingly contentious relationship with Canada and Prime Minister Mark Carney, whom O’Leary calls “smart as hell.” They debate whether Trump’s approach to tariffs and trade is ultimately hurting American interests, how Carney has benefited politically from standing up to Trump, and why the economic relationship between the U.S. and Canada makes a prolonged trade war difficult for both countries. Plus, O’Leary discusses his massive investments in energy and AI infrastructure and responds to the growing backlash against data centers over their use of water, power, and other community resources.

The $20 Burrito Problem Trump Can’t Ignore
Andrew Kolvet (spokesperson, Turning Point USA, and executive producer, “The Charlie Kirk Show”) joins Chris Cuomo for a wide-ranging debate over the future of Trump’s MAGA movement, the economy, immigration, Islam, ICE, and the rise of the DSA on the left. Kolvet explains how a college student’s complaint about a $20 burrito became a national political argument—and why he thinks Republicans risk making the same mistake as Democrats if they dismiss voters who say everyday life is still too expensive. Chris presses him on whether Donald Trump deserves the same criticism conservatives leveled at Joe Biden when voters felt the White House wasn’t acknowledging their economic reality. Chris and Andrew also clash over Muslim immigration and the role of Christianity in America, debate the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown and the use of force by ICE, and examine whether Democrats are moving toward their own political transformation. Kolvet argues that the DSA could mount the same kind of “hostile takeover” of the Democratic establishment that MAGA carried out on the Republican Party, while Chris questions whether the movement’s most extreme positions actually represent where Democratic voters are headed. They also discuss conspiracy culture and social media, including the attacks Kolvet and others at Turning Point faced after Charlie Kirk’s death and why he believes online incentives are pushing Americans toward increasingly baseless conclusions.

Former Pastor John Pavlovitz On How Trump Took Over Christianity
John Pavlovitz (author, “A Bigger Table,” pastor, and Substack Writer, “The Beautiful Mess”) joins Chris Cuomo to examine how Donald Trump and MAGA have transformed conservative Christianity, why political identity has become so difficult to break, and whether Americans can still be persuaded out of increasingly extreme political camps. Pavlovitz argues that Christian nationalism has become a “Jesusless Christianity” built around power rather than the teachings of Jesus, and explains why he sees Trumpism as a cultic movement that has replaced traditional sources of moral authority with loyalty to one person. Chris and John also debate whether the left has its own problem with ideological purity, the rise of the DSA as an alternative to the Democratic establishment, and why frustration with the status quo continues to fuel political disruption. They discuss Chris’s concern that Islamophobia could become MAGA’s most effective distraction heading into the midterms, the difficulty of combating fear of Muslims in a country where many voters have little exposure to Islam, and what could happen if Americans lose faith in the legitimacy of the next election.

Why I Refuse To Pick A Side
Chris Cuomo digs into the latest comments and questions from the YouTube community, taking on viewers who accuse him of going too easy on Donald Trump, being unfair to Zohran Mamdani, carrying water for Israel, and refusing to choose a political side. He also responds to a Trump voter who says he’s abandoning the GOP over healthcare and affordability, and explains why the anger that originally drove people toward Trump was real—even if Trump ultimately failed to fix the system he promised to disrupt. Chris argues that MAGA has swallowed the Republican Party, questions a political culture where loyalty to Trump matters more than challenging your own side, and explains why he’d probably have millions more subscribers if he simply became another partisan voice. He also gets into criticism of Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu, what the government may really know about UFOs, growing resentment toward billionaires, and why Democrats need an economic agenda built around affordability, wages, healthcare and a system that works for more than the people at the top.

6 Reasons MAGA’s Islamophobia Will Backfire
Chris Cuomo breaks down six reasons MAGA’s increasingly anti-Muslim rhetoric is both politically self-defeating and fundamentally at odds with American values, arguing that legitimate concerns about Islamist extremism are being used to cast suspicion on an entire religion. Chris examines Nancy Mace’s recent comments about Muslim elected officials, the critical difference between Islam and Islamism, and why collective blame has repeatedly produced some of the ugliest chapters in American history. He also explains why targeting Muslim Americans could ultimately make the country less safe while handing MAGA’s opponents an opportunity to make a much stronger argument about religious freedom, citizenship, and the Constitution.

AOC Just Changed The Conversation
Chris Cuomo argues that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is doing exactly what Democrats have to do to beat MAGA in the midterms — and lays out the six changes she's signaling that every Democrat needs to make if they want to win. Chris walks through AOC's viral ABC News clip and explains why her shift toward reasonable messaging on public safety, crime, and coalition-building is exactly the pivot her party needs. Chris argues that extremism is dead as a winning strategy, and the only way to beat MAGA is to broaden the coalition, not narrow it.

The Five Sins Of Todd Blanche
Chris Cuomo argues that Perez Hilton's viral livestream this week and Todd Blanche's imminent confirmation as Attorney General are proof of the same broken system: one where the wrong agendas are being empowered at the expense of the public interest, and where profitability and loyalty consistently win out over responsibility and independence. Chris lays out the five sins of Todd Blanche and why they should have disqualified him from ever becoming Attorney General. Chris argues that Blanche isn't just the most conflicted AG pick in modern American history — he's a metaphor for the entire moment we're in, where there's no shame in the game and nothing is hidden anymore because the powerful don't feel they have to hide it.

You Can't Debate Someone Like RFK Jr.
Chris Cuomo explains why the viral exchange between CNN’s Dana Bash and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reveals a much bigger problem than the debate over vaccines. Using the interview as a case study, Chris breaks down why political conversations have become less about changing minds and more about reinforcing identities, why fact-checking alone often fails, and why so many of America’s biggest debates now feel impossible to resolve. Chris also examines RFK Jr.‘s claims about vaccines, Anthony Fauci’s role during the pandemic, Donald Trump’s handling of COVID, Operation Warp Speed, the lab leak debate, immigration, Elon Musk, political tribalism, and why he believes the country’s biggest challenge isn’t a lack of facts -- it’s the way Americans now process them.

Fauci Pleading The Fifth Doesn't Actually Matter
Chris Cuomo explains why Anthony Fauci pleading the Fifth has become the latest political obsession—and why he doesn’t think it changes much of anything. Chris breaks down what happened during Fauci’s Senate testimony, why his lawyers advised him not to answer questions, why Trump continues to avoid the same scrutiny over the government’s pandemic response, and what we’ve still failed to learn from COVID. Chris also breaks down new polling on affordability, healthcare, immigration, and the economy, explaining why he believes politicians are focused on the wrong fights while Americans are focused on paying their bills. He discusses Trump’s standing with voters, why affordability remains the defining issue for so many Americans, and why the conversation in Washington looks so different from the conversation happening around kitchen tables.

Everything You Hate About The Economy Was A Choice
For decades, Americans have been told today’s economy is simply the result of capitalism, globalization, or forces beyond anyone’s control. Chris Cuomo argues that’s not true. From housing affordability and healthcare to Wall Street, pensions, student loans, immigration, and AI, Chris breaks down the political choices that reshaped the American economy, and why he believes those decisions, not ideology, are the real reason so many people feel like the system is working against them. Chris also explains why he believes Democrats are making a critical messaging mistake ahead of the midterms, the economic argument he thinks can actually move voters, and why the next great political fight won’t just be over taxes or spending — but over who benefits from artificial intelligence, automation, and the next generation of American wealth.

The Krassensteins Are Overshooting On Trump
Brian Krassenstein and Ed Krassenstein (writers, entrepreneurs, and political commentators) join Chris Cuomo for an extended conversation about the political battles shaping the next election—and the one issue they believe could matter more than anything else: AI. Chris, Brian, and Ed debate whether Democrats are missing their biggest opportunities against Trump, how Republicans continue to dominate the messaging battle, and why issues like voter ID, immigration, and affordability remain so difficult for Democrats to navigate. They also discuss whether AI should be treated as a public resource, what the technology means for jobs and the economy, and why the political fight that decides 2028 may have very little to do with Donald Trump.

Corruption Just Became Trump’s Biggest Problem
Chris Cuomo breaks down why JD Vance is already blowing his chance at the presidency, why Trump's corruption just became his biggest political weakness, and why Democrats should be beating Trump by way more than they are heading into the 2026 midterms. Cuomo opens with a direct warning to Vance: step up or step off. The Vice President is either glossing over what everyone can see or outright pretending the Trump administration's failures aren't happening — and it's killing him with his own base. Cuomo argues Vance won't make it through the primaries if he doesn't figure out how to be honest with the American people. But the deeper story is about corruption. Cuomo walks through the polling — corruption is now a top-three issue for American voters, which has never been the case in modern polling history. That's not because voters got more sensitive. It's because Trump's corruption is more brazen than anything Americans have ever seen from a sitting president. Cuomo lays out the challenge: given all of this, why isn't Trump losing by more? Cost of living is voters' number one concern. Corruption is top three. ICE overreach is hurting the administration. The Iran war is dragging. Every underlying number tells the same story. Cuomo argues voters see what's wrong but aren't convinced Democrats will make it better — and that's where the midterms will actually be decided.

Brian Tyler Cohen Explains What Democrats Must Do Next
Brian Tyler Cohen (YouTube and podcast host, “No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen,” and author, “The Day After: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World”) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss why Democrats have a real opportunity heading into the midterms — and what they must do differently if they want to keep it. Chris and Brian break down why disruption is driving American politics, why Democrats are positioned to become the new insurgent party, and what happens if they actually win. They debate the filibuster, socialism, institutional reform, messaging, the future of the Democratic Party, and whether Trump’s movement has fundamentally changed how politics works in America. Chris and Brian also discuss how to govern after victory, why political movements often lose their way once they’re in power, and what lessons Democrats should learn from MAGA before it’s too late.

Lindsey Graham Proved What’s Wrong With American Politics
Sen. Lindsey Graham’s sudden death has prompted tributes from across the political spectrum, but Chris Cuomo argues that honoring someone’s life doesn’t mean ignoring their legacy. Chris examines Graham’s remarkable rise from a difficult childhood to one of the most influential Republicans in Washington, while confronting the political transformation that defined his career. From calling Donald Trump a religious bigot during the 2016 campaign to becoming one of Trump’s closest allies, Chris argues that Graham’s evolution reflects a political system that rewards access, loyalty, and power over principle. Chris also explores January 6, the SAVE Act, Ukraine, Iran, Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, Brett Kavanaugh, media coverage of Graham’s death, and why he believes Graham’s career should serve as a cautionary tale — not simply about one senator, but about what American politics increasingly rewards.
