Description

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.

Chris, I have watched you for years. I missed you when you were off the air. I didn't always agree with you , I respect you enough to know everyone has their own protective. I just finished listening to the episode about enough. During this episode,I actually was tearing up for myself because this is what I wanted to hear my whole life. It would be a long comment to give you the reasons, so I will just thank you for making me realize to me I am enough. Please don't go away again. Wendy

I unfortunately don't see value in this podcast. Selling supplements and whining about how tough life is... I love you for your interviews and perspectives on actuality. Stop pretending you're Tony Robbins and focus on how actuality affects us. No more preaching please. Sorry for the arshness but I miss the Cuomo I used to see on CNN and unfortunately I don't have access to the News Nation something you're on. Thanks for reading me.

This was a great episode, Chris. I always thought of Manchin as a DINO, but now I have given pause to that thought. maybe what we need is more folks like Manchin in the Senate, on BOTH sides of the aisle. Keep up the good work, and I'm glad to hear you on the air again!
