Chris Cuomo opens up about his own experiences with political backlash, media takedowns, and personal loss to explain why so many Americans are angry — and why that anger, while justified, is too often manipulated. He breaks down how both MAGA and its left-wing “mirror” exploit frustration, feeding division instead of pursuing real fixes.From calling out selective outrage over his firing at CNN to challenging how the far left and far right weaponize cultural conflicts, Cuomo digs into the policies and political games that keep voters fighting while powerful interests benefit. He questions the remedies both sides claim to offer, from “free everything” to “cut everything,” and urges listeners to focus on solutions that actually work rather than being caught in an endless cycle of outrage.

Texas Democrats have left the state to block a mid-decade redistricting vote, triggering threats of arrest from Governor Greg Abbott — and even FBI involvement. The high-stakes standoff has become a flashpoint for the 2024 political landscape, with lawmakers fleeing to blue states in protest as the GOP tries to reshape congressional maps. In this episode of The Chris Cuomo Project, Chris and his team explore what the odds are telling us — not just about Texas, but about the 2024 landscape. From redistricting battles to surprise firings and shifting polls, prediction markets are offering a unique window into the political chaos.

James Talarico (Texas State Representative) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss the intersection of faith, politics, and public service. Talarico reflects on his viral Joe Rogan appearance, his progressive Christian identity, and why he believes the Democratic Party must reconnect with its moral roots. He explains his resistance to toxic online culture, how he walks the line between calling out bad ideas and respecting opponents, and what lessons he draws from both seminary and the Texas statehouse. Cuomo and Talarico also explore systemic extremism, media incentives, gerrymandering, and whether national office is the best place to make real change.

Monday’s mass shooting in Manhattan prompts Chris Cuomo to dig into what he believes is the real root cause: a culture of extremism that’s been supercharged by social media. Cuomo examines how algorithm-driven outrage, partisan politics, and a warped incentive structure are creating an environment that fuels radicalism — not just abroad, but at home. From CTE and mental illness to algorithms and ideology, Cuomo warns that America’s growing appetite for destruction is no longer just rhetorical. It’s being acted out in real time, and unless we recalibrate what we reward in our politics and culture, the violence will only escalate.

Chris Cuomo examines the enduring controversy surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and the moral urgency behind full transparency. Cuomo rejects conspiracy theories about murder and client lists, arguing instead that political opportunists have co-opted the issue to distract and divide voters while ignoring the public’s demand for accountability. He critiques both left and right figures for exploiting the scandal, outlines what a real release of documents should entail, and warns about the political cost of extremism over pragmatism. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) joins the show to explain the inflationary pressures affecting the U.S. economy and what consumers should understand about rising debt, interest rates, and financial instability.

Ami Kozak (comedian and musician) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss rising anti-Zionism, the backlash against Israel since October 7th, and how he uses satire to respond to hate. Kozak explains how his Jewish identity shapes his worldview, why the far left and far right both weaponize antisemitic tropes, and how performative politics is blurring the lines between legitimate critique and bigotry. He also shares impressions and critiques of public figures like Bernie Sanders, Dave Smith, and Joe Rogan, takes on Tucker Carlson, and explains why impressions can reach people in ways arguments can’t.

Chris Cuomo unpacks the truth about the Epstein documents and why so many people — especially in MAGA circles — feel betrayed. There’s no client list. No smoking-gun videos. But there is a cover-up — just not the one you’ve been told. Cuomo explains who’s actually responsible for redacting the names tied to Epstein, why Trump’s inner circle stoked false expectations, and how conspiracy grifters continue to profit off your outrage. Cuomo also calls out leading voices on the left and right for weaponizing the issue without pushing for real transparency — and explains why the fight over these files won’t go away anytime soon. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) joins the show to help people cut through the noise and make clear-headed decisions in a chaotic media and political landscape.

Megyn Kelly and other conservative voices are coming after Chris Cuomo — but he’s not backing down. In this episode, Cuomo responds directly to the attacks from Kelly, Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, and others, challenging their tactics, their authenticity, and their rise in the “pod sphere.” He questions why voices like Kelly’s keep talking about him while refusing to face him directly — and breaks down what he sees as a media culture built on outrage and opportunism. Cuomo also reflects on his own media career, the role of anger in politics, and what he believes is the real threat facing the country: rising fundamentalism and division fueled by both political parties. With critiques of Trump, Biden, and the binary system itself, Cuomo makes the case for independent thinking — and explains why he won’t mirror the vitriol of those attacking him.

Tyson details how marijuana helped him recover his health, lose 100 pounds, and leave behind addiction. He’s now advocating for cannabis to be removed from the Schedule I drug list and legalized at the federal level. Joined by entrepreneur Brady Cobb (Sunburn Cannabis), Tyson makes the case for safe, tested, and age-restricted cannabis — not just as a business, but as a matter of justice. The conversation covers banking restrictions, bipartisan political support, and why cannabis reform could be a winning issue for 2025. Tyson also reflects on his most famous quotes, the impact of social media, and what he calls the “fight of his life."

Chris Cuomo tears into Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," calling it a "f*** you" to working Americans who are angry about a system rigged for the powerful. He argues the bill exposes everything wrong with American politics: it adds trillions to the debt while cutting Medicaid and SNAP, gives 80% of tax cuts to the wealthy, and hurts the very MAGA voters who supported Trump—especially through cuts to rural hospitals that disproportionately serve his base. Cuomo condemns Republicans like Lisa Murkowski who called the bill fiscally irresponsible but voted for it anyway, proving party loyalty trumps principle. He argues this regressive bill—which treats tax cuts as "cost-free" through accounting gimmicks—is exactly why populist movements on both left and right are exploding. The bill rewards the top while punishing those struggling most, fueling the extremism and violence we're seeing across the political spectrum. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses why the bill's debt implications could force interest rate changes and what it means for household finances.

Adam Friedland (comedian and podcast host, "The Adam Friedland Show") joins Chris Cuomo for a wide-ranging conversation about comedy, politics, and the state of America. Friedland discusses his evolution from doing a deliberately ironic podcast to investing himself fully in serious interviews, studying Howard Stern's technique to improve his craft. He offers his perspective on campus protests, arguing that economic alienation and loneliness drive extremism more than ideology. The conversation touches on everything from the 1990s as America's last truly happy decade to why working-class abandonment created today's political outrage. Friedland challenges conventional narratives about antisemitism on campuses while defending First Amendment principles, and shares his views on foreign policy, wealth inequality, and why he refuses to get a 401k. Throughout, he displays the thoughtful irreverence that has made him one of comedy's most interesting new voices. Support our sponsors: Reverse hair loss with @iRestorelaser!

Chris Cuomo argues that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is killing the Democratic Party by pushing to impeach Trump over his Iran bombing that actually led to a ceasefire. He contends that Democrats are making the same mistake as MAGA by embracing extremism, with AOC consistently taking the losing side of every "80-20" issue: from defunding police to being too comfortable with pro-Hamas sentiment, and now trying to impeach a president for protecting Americans from extreme Islamism. Cuomo warns that the real threat facing America isn't just from foreign terrorists but from homegrown extremists of all ideologies—from the healthcare CEO killer to embassy attackers—who've been radicalized to believe violence advances their political agenda. He argues Democrats need to reject AOC's performative politics and focus on the economic issues that matter to working people, like Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," not chase impossible impeachments that make them look weak on national security.Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses how the GOP budget bill's debt implications could affect American households and investment strategies.

Rosie O'Donnell (actor & comedian) joins Chris Cuomo from her new home in Ireland to explain why she left America after Trump's second election victory. O'Donnell shares how Trump's first presidency led her into depression and unhealthy habits, prompting her move abroad for "self-preservation" and to create a better environment for herself and her autistic child. She discusses the cultural differences between Ireland and America, including how the Irish reject celebrity worship and embrace their history of fighting oppression. O'Donnell reveals she can finally be "a normal person" for the first time since becoming famous, with older Irish men buying her Guinness instead of cursing at her in CVS. The conversation touches on the No Kings Day protests on June 14th that gave her hope, her concerns about American extremism, and why she believes billionaires and "patriarchal fascist" leaders are destroying the country she still loves despite choosing to leave it.

Chris Cuomo breaks down the two critical questions President Trump must answer about Iran that will define his presidency: Does America have to stop the Iranian regime from enriching uranium to weapons grade? And if yes, how? He argues that MAGA is imploding over this issue, with isolationists clashing with hawks, while nobody is offering real solutions beyond ""bomb them"" or ""do nothing."" Cuomo examines why Trump's best move is likely dealmaking rather than military action, despite pressure from Israel and his own party. He explores the legal constraints on unilateral military action, the distinction between the Iranian regime and its people, and why Trump needs to distance himself from MAGA's extremes to build the consensus necessary for handling this crisis. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses how the Iran uncertainty is affecting markets and what investors can do to protect their assets.

Bryan Johnson (entrepreneur, author, and founder, Blueprint) joins Chris Cuomo to explain why he believes humans are on the verge of defeating death itself. Johnson, who sold Braintree/Venmo for billions and has become the most biologically measured person in history, shares his radical philosophy that AI and advancing technology will soon make aging optional—and why he's spending millions to prove it's possible. The conversation tackles Johnson's controversial practices (yes, the blood transfusions were real but misunderstood), his extreme health protocols that have given him the biomarkers of a 20-year-old at age 47, and why he believes "Don't Die" will become as influential as Christianity or democracy. From his one key metric for health (resting heart rate before bed) to why Americans resist his message while other cultures embrace it, Johnson makes the case that we're approaching an "event horizon" where human existence fundamentally changes.

Gary Vaynerchuk (CEO, VaynerMedia) joins Chris Cuomo for a raw conversation about why young Americans are struggling despite having more opportunities than ever. Gary V argues that overprotective parenting, participation trophies, and a lack of accountability have created a generation that expects success without work—while parents use their children's achievements for their own self-esteem. The discussion tackles the hard truths about why 22-year-olds are moving back home, why kids are protesting causes they don't understand, and how America has become addicted to blame instead of personal responsibility. Vaynerchuk shares his immigrant perspective on merit, consequences, and why he believes the real pandemic isn't COVID—it's the death of accountability. From parents wanting to attend job interviews to the weaponization of fear in politics, this conversation exposes uncomfortable realities about modern American culture.

Chris Cuomo sits down with two of the most important voices in UAP transparency: George Knapp (Journalist, KLAS-TV, and Weekend Host, Coast to Coast AM—the investigative journalist who exposed Area 51) and Jeremy Corbell (Investigative Filmmaker and Podcast Co-Host, "Weaponized"). Together, they dissect the government's decades-long campaign of lies and disinformation about unidentified aerial phenomena, including recent admissions that officials have deliberately spread propaganda to confuse the public and military personnel. The conversation reveals how a small group within the Department of Defense, intelligence agencies, and defense contractors continues to guard these secrets, while recent "debunking" efforts in the Wall Street Journal represent a new form of conspiracy—claiming UFOs aren't real at all. Knapp and Corbell explain why transparency will only come through journalism and whistleblowers, not government disclosure, and why the American public deserves answers about technology that could reshape our understanding of physics and national security.
