Episodes
  • Chris Cuomo CALLS OUT Megyn Kelly
    Jul 10 2025
    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. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) joins the show to help viewers cut through the noise and make clear-headed decisions in a chaotic media and political landscape.

  • Why Mike Tyson Is FIGHTING for Legal Weed
    Jul 8 2025
    Mike Tyson (former Undisputed Heavyweight Champion and Co‑Founder & Chief Brand Officer, TYSON 2.0) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss how cannabis changed his life and why he’s fighting to change federal law. 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."

  • How Trump’s Tax Bill BETRAYS His Own Voters
    Jul 3 2025
    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.

I have missed Chris so badly and didn’t even realize how much until I heard him again.
So glad your voice has returned and I look forward to many hours of listening to you.
I hope that Don Lemon can be on your program sometime. Hopefully CNN will permit this. You guys were so good together!!

Love Chris' takes on things. He has seemed to, despite his self-acknowledged flaws, remain a steady personality within news coverage.

Good Point of View!

We already have more than two parties: Libertarian, Green Party, etc. Should we keep these or create a new party. Thoughts?

Love your work and intelligence and have been an avid listener for years. My husband and I were both Republicans for 50 years but became Democrats in 2016.
I heard the Manafort interview and still don’t believe he is as innocent as he presents himself to be.
He says Trump wasn’t responsible for Jan 6. I watched it in real time and saw and heard the crimes and lies. I was horrified and actually frightened as I viewed.
I can’t be swayed or talked out of what I witnessed. Trump is a liar and always has been. He doesn’t care about anything or anyone else. I don’t understand how anyone can deny what took place. He is an immoral human who only wants to win. How can Manafort continue to support a racist thug who watched him go to prison in his place. How can he excuse the lies and wrongdoings.
I can’t believe we are living 2016 over.

Manafort
