The Chris Cuomo Project - Cuomo Fires Back at the Comment Section

Episode Date: November 27, 2025

Chris Cuomo responds directly to a flood of viewer comments and questions — from accusations that he’s “changed,” to criticism of his Alan Dershowitz interview, to claims that he’s too hard ...or too soft on Trump. He addresses confusion around shutdown politics, breaks down the realities of the ACA debate, and pushes back on misinformation about what Trump did or didn’t do — including his shifting claim about “ending seven wars.” Cuomo also explains why outrage remains the dominant political currency online, and why so many people mistake anger for clarity. Cuomo digs into arguments about wealth, privilege, and independence; clarifies his views on Epstein, Venezuela, and selective outrage; and calls out how social media’s algorithmic incentives twist honest disagreement into hostility. He talks openly about intensity, decency, and why provocation has replaced persuasion — and closes with a reminder not to waste moments with family on fights that don’t matter.

Starting point is 00:00:00 Thank you, no, thanks. Support comes from the Wild Alaskan Company. When was the last time you truly trusted seafood that you brought home?

They are the best way to get wild caught, perfectly portioned, nutrient-dense, seafood delivered. directly to your door. Trust me, this is the real deal, okay? They sent us some of the salmon.

So you got something you want to say? You want to come at me? Well, let's get after it. I'm Chris Cuomo. Welcome to the Chris Cuomo Project. You find me with the redoubtable, the inimitable, the one and only Gregory Ott, not real name, producer, but also advocate and conveyor for you, the people. So he has gone through and I'm sure it's only the best and most generous comments and questions for me and you will see that we're in a new configuration because I wanted more ot in my life. Oh yeah great an extra cameras worth of Greg great. So what do you got? I got some rapid fire questions for you
Starting point is 00:02:14 I was I wanted to start with this and instead you just launched into your usual thing but that's fine we'll pick it up right here. Well didn't I have to do an intro? No the intro would come later. Oh really? It was going to be like a cold open but now now it's toast so we're going to why don't we try it? Let's pretend we didn't start and do it as a cold open. Well, if we're keeping this, people are already going to know that we've started. But they'll have an insight into our process. There's not much of a process. Oh, there's pretty much process going on now.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Okay. This is a little too inside the weeds. I have these ready to go. Can I give you the... Let's do the rapid fire questions. This is from YouTube. Are you ready? No.
Starting point is 00:02:49 I'm sorry. You said the answer really fast. I got nervous. No, you have to... Yes, you can answer really fast. We have to hear the whole question. What party do you belong to? that we like the party
Starting point is 00:02:58 Christ, man it's the opposite of rapid fire you're doing so I think you like that I'm very close to you right now I'm like six inches away from that arm I hate the parties the parties are the problem
Starting point is 00:03:14 This is rapid fire None none None Why did you quit working out got too easy next I like you bro but you losing us you lost yourself conversation is the cure 100% you are a fucking idiot full stop so's your mom please cut your mustache never how can fix problems wait i want to go back to the last one give to november and then it will be
Starting point is 00:03:43 gone do you know me no well hold on it's from page miss turner no okay that's the rapid fire question around and then there was the uh how do we fix problems yeah how can't Fix Problem, says Alex McGuffie 13 days ago. Elect people there to fix instead of blame. All right, so I have here, we haven't done this in a little while, and when this new configuration, I thought we'd hear from more people this time,
Starting point is 00:04:13 not just our usual assortment of phone calls and YouTube comments. Unbeknownst to me, this is not, maybe this is me being a bad producer. You can leave comments on Spotify, so I have Spotify comments, I have YouTube comments, And, you know that little phone number we have so people can get a hold of the show? I have a collection of text messages instead of phone calls. So instead of hearing somebody else's voice,
Starting point is 00:04:32 you'll be hearing my voice, reading their voice. I have a comment. Okay. It's kind of a question. But that's what most of you do, is you say you have a question, and then it's a comment. What do you think of a TV show called,
Starting point is 00:04:44 say it to my face, where you get people who have beef from social media and you put them face to face and see what happens? I mean, it sounds great. It sounds like anybody who brings a camera into like a taco bell or something, you know, like on social media. It's like, all right, they just record real moments like that. Is that what you're talking about?
Starting point is 00:05:01 Well, but like it's like, oh, hey, Greg. Hi. You've been sending comments to this person and now here they are. That sounds like the Kim, like when the celebrities read the mean shit, people write online. But they're not confronting the people who said it. See, I think it would do several things. One, you'd need to have a disclaimer. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:18 That whatever happens here, no one can sue. like a judge judy type thing where it's like you have to agree to the rules well but there you're agreeing to an arbitration clause that allows her to be the arbitrator this is you can't sue there will be no judge judy whatever happens here happens so if you slam me in the face i can't sue you i think this i'm talking boy boy boy and tough girl versus tough girl because no boy girl i don't go for that you can call me sexist but i think that that's that's no good but i think that one it would make people think and I bet you they'd be more polite. Two, I'd like to see one get punched in the face
Starting point is 00:05:53 for saying stupid shit that should get you punched in the face. So you think any of the rapid fire stuff that I sent to you would get somebody punched in the face? Please cut your mustache. You were a fucking idiot, full stop. No, because... I like you, bro, but you're losing us.
Starting point is 00:06:06 It costs me too much. See, you pose... So you wouldn't participate in your own show. Because, well, unless you sign the disclaimer, because here's what happens. They're tough guys, right? Oh, Cuomo, kick your ass. Frato this.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Frato that. your mother this like really ugly shit then i see them right and they're not that way why because i'm a real one that's why and if you want it you're going to get it so now they're oh no i want to i want to talk i don't want to be violent no man chill chill chill chill there's a lot of that why because you are a keyboard warrior you are a pussy and a poser that has been fed a false notion of how to be because of social media and a society that prioritizes invective over insights. And I get it. I just think that we need to come up with remedies.
Starting point is 00:06:55 And I think one remedy is the reminder that what comes out of your mouth may get you punched in the face. Keep in mind, I'm just a conduit reading this stuff. I'm not the one who is expressing the opinions. You, I love. And if somebody got sideways with you, they would get a world of hurt from me. You should have seen me at the goddamn a pastry place the other day. I wanted to get a cardam bun, right?
Starting point is 00:07:16 And it's in New York You know how like sometimes the line is not Hold on The cute is not like Proper Hold on a second Would you just say you wanted? A cardam bun
Starting point is 00:07:27 One of those like Swedish pastries You've had they're very good It's like a cinnamon roll But a New York thing No it's that it's a Danish bakery Nobody says cardamom In this city Okay
Starting point is 00:07:38 This is a cardam Of what they sell It's not that This is why people don't like you People don't like me for a million reasons This is not the cardam. This is high on it. It's high on.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Have you ever had one of these or a cup of coffee? Of course not. I'm a man. It's not a man. It's a spice is not masculine. It's a flavor. No.
Starting point is 00:07:57 I guarantee you've had a million things of cardamom and you're like, this is great. It doesn't mean you less of a man by enjoying flavor. New York doesn't do cardam. Cinnamon we do. Cardam. No. They, it was so popular.
Starting point is 00:08:10 I ordered it. There were two in the bakery case. And by the time we had already paid, they were gone. And they're like, We actually gave those away. I was like, but I just ordered it. Was it you, three guys with mustaches like mine who would pen their own tattoos? No, it was a bunch of women who were in between me and the checkout.
Starting point is 00:08:25 I don't know, man. Yeah. Look, I mean, great. I don't know how it happened. The point is the cue system didn't work. Some of the stuff I can't defend, you know? You can't be saying, hi, I'd like a cardamum bum, please, and then be upset when people give you a hard time in New York City.
Starting point is 00:08:34 They didn't give me a hard time. They gave it to somebody else after I had ordered it. Was it a woman? The person who was working there? The person they gave it to. Yes. That's because that's who he kept telling. No, because she was... Old ladies.
Starting point is 00:08:45 She was a young, I think she was young, but her coat was quite old. Of course. Where's this, Brooklyn? No, this is around the corner from your house, man. That's what I'm saying. This is in your neighborhood. Thrifting people. Again, not a real one. Well, I'm a real one. Times are tough. Shut up. Buy a coat. Times aren't tough at that place. Their pastries there are like eight bucks a piece.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Wow, really? Yeah, if you want like an economic indicator, go to this place. Is that why you don't bring us any? Huh? Is that why you don't bring us any? bring you any i bring you food every time i come here i used to bring you two coffees and now i bring you one because you don't eat food you just drink hold on coffee hold on hold on hold on you bring food every time you come no i say i bring you beverage i you used to buy a sandwich and now you don't buy
Starting point is 00:09:27 this guy is tight as two coats of paint okay let me tell you he does not come in here with food for me and amrish i'm telling that right now amrish i buy amrish plenty of sandwiches you don't eat anything so I like you have I don't eat anything I'm 230 pounds of dad bought I don't eat anything no you if I were to bring you a food you'd be like oh sorry I'm only eating you know like leaves this week or something so I you wouldn't you would put it in the trash to leave him on the ground with a headache well I'd like to leave these comments go ahead what you got because this conversation is not going well then you're not going to like most of this conversation all right let's go all right I have also do you have a subject you'd like to tee off on and you're going to go
Starting point is 00:10:05 start with you and work our way back whatever you got man let's get after this is from a about Trump being his own worst enemy. Yes, next. The rapid fire is stop. We've slowed down. This is from Rodney Liss, 8,276. He writes, finally, Chris is back to common sense. And then the replies, GM Rendon 775 says, I agreed.
Starting point is 00:10:28 I stopped following him because it wasn't him. And then resist dash Q8P says he had to. His last video was destroyed in the common section. He had to see it because it was every post. Also, if the Dems had lost, this whole video would have been about what's wrong with the Democratic Party. Well, look, here's the difference between me and you, okay? I am a free agent and an independent and a critical thinker. You are stuck thinking the other side is worse, and your side deserves no examination because the other side is worse.
Starting point is 00:11:01 They're Nazis, you know, fill in the blank because you're obviously all lefties. Now, I don't even see the comments, okay? I don't even know where the comments would be. I don't even go on the page. I am actually down with Andrew Yang and I'm using social media less and less and having Greg and Rose do more and more of the decision-making and content descriptions.
Starting point is 00:11:24 Why? Because it's a fucking dumpster fire. It's a shit show. And you people only want what you already believe. It is an echo chamber. And I see it. I see it in people who are trying to create digital footprints for themselves.
Starting point is 00:11:37 And I see how they are on their TV show and how they are in digital and they're different. Why? Because they know how to get you there. Trump sucks. He's going down. Mag is done. Breaking the spell. And this is this shit you want to hear. I haven't fucking changed. You've changed. Okay. I'm the same guy I've always been. You want to know how the president feels about me? Ask him. And let me tell you, you better have some time on your hands and you better have some ear plugs. He's not a fan. And I respect that because he only likes people who kiss his ass 24-7. I will say when the president does things that are good for this country because I give a shit
Starting point is 00:12:14 about the net effect, not just the advantage of one side over the other, but that's too much for you. You believe it's existential that your side win everything all the time. And if the Democrats had lost these off-year elections, I would have come at them because they were supposed to win them. They were running for blue seats. You don't even know the process. So I'm not changing.
Starting point is 00:12:36 I'm 55 years old. I change opinions. I change opinions. Why? Because I'm a critical thinker. And if the facts change, I change. Why? Because I'm a critical thinker.
Starting point is 00:12:46 You don't. Because you have to stick with fealty, loyalty to a side no matter what. And that is the problem. You are right and left. I am right and wrong. Well, Catherine Kittycat, I think based on the temper of the show so far, Three days ago, she wrote, take more calm, please. Do you have to scream at us? Can you talk like on the news or something instead of yelling at us? And the intensity is exhausting. We already have to listen to Trump's abusive mouth. Listen, who told you to watch and then comment? Okay? Who told you? Not me? All right? I don't give a shit if you watch or comment. I'm more and more.
Starting point is 00:13:28 For the advertisers we want people to watch in common, we like to, I can. Here's what you get if you advertise with me. Here's what you get if you follow me. You get somebody who is putting out things without regard to who is advertising or who is following. I am not going to just pitch you the bullshit that you want to be true. I'm not going to tell you, you're right. Maga is a Nazi movement. I'm not going to tell you that.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Why? It's disrespectful to the historical lessons of the. Nazism and true fascism and what you must protect against here. See, when you keep exaggerating things for effect, which is all you do, you cheapen those things. You cheapen those things. I won't do that. Now, does that make me as popular as some in the moment? No. But you've literally got to a place where you have people who are never given legitimate platforms, not just because of the deep state, because the MSM is an inside game. It's because they didn't deserve them. Because just like Megan Kelly, when she went from Fox News to NBC, what happened? Why? Why did she? Because the
Starting point is 00:14:36 majority of America doesn't want screaming, gratuitous, nastiness just to stoke outrage. That's the truth. She failed doubly there. They paid her to leave. Okay? Now, she's perfect for digital media. You could argue, theoretically, I'm not. I'd probably want to surround myself with some real obnoxious assholes and slap them around. Thank you. for 30, 45 minutes. I said multiple ones, not just one. But I don't want to do that. Why? You got enough of it already. I am a fair broker. You can think I'm a lefty. You're wrong. You can think I'm a righty. You're wrong. Depends on the issue. Okay. I'm the same guy who believes in reproductive rights who also had a hand, a pistol in his hand shooting a deer to get him off my lawn. It depends
Starting point is 00:15:20 on the issue. I don't believe in right and left. I think it's killing us. I believe in right and wrong. we use everywhere else in our lives that you allow not to be part of your politics. So you get to the point where it's okay that we shift from a shutdown in health care to the Epstein files because that's what matters as much as the subsidies for the ACA. Now you'll rationalize it. Not me. I won't rationalize it that they can do two things at once. They can't do one fucking thing, let alone two at once.
Starting point is 00:15:47 But for you, it's okay. Why? Because it's about your side getting advantage over the other side. See, to me, I don't want to hear about you going after Stacey Plaskett for talking to Epstein when you won't do it because, one of your own guys is going to get censured for faking his military pedigree. See, the sides are killing us, and I won't play to it. And if you think that means that I've changed, it's not me who's changed, it's you.

Second ago, you said something about, depends on the issue and talk about the ACA. Yes.
Starting point is 00:18:50 About that from the video, the real reason the shutdown ended, Ms. ACC 2011 wrote, is the ACA way cheaper in red states? It is about the group pricing of that catchment area, which means, in some cases, by state. Look, I'll tell you what the real problem is with the ACA. Okay? There are two problems.
Starting point is 00:19:10 The first one, three problems. First one was it wasn't designed for cost, not really. It was designed for access. And there's a difference between making care available and the people who have the care available, finding it affordable. Those are two different things. They couldn't go to cost.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Why? Because even though Obama had the numbers, he didn't have enough for his own people to withstand what the industry would have done to them if they had gone after costs the way they went after access. That's why they went access. And they wanted to involve the states in a way that they couldn't if they were just dealing with costs. Second reason.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Red states to punish the left for passing this over their disapproval because they just didn't want the left to do anything, right? because they wanted to reserve the right to bitch and then say they'll fix it. They didn't expand Medicaid as offered through the ACA during that initial period, especially. So they didn't expand their ability to offer it to their citizenry. So they fucked their own people, okay? The third reason is, the third problem with the ACA is they never tweaked it. They never went back and dealt with any of the things.
Starting point is 00:20:20 If you Google being a critical thinker, how many different. changes they had to make to Medicare, Medicaid, and social security, social security and insurance, SSI, as it was originally referred. They were doing it every few years. Why? Because you've got to tweak this thing. You've got to make it work. They don't do that with the ACA. Why? Because they just want to kill it. Why? Because they don't want the left to have the win. That's what I'm talking about. They're not about right and wrong. They're about right and left. Is the ACA enough? No. Does it work well enough? No. Is it better than it was? Yes. Do the subsidies matter?
Starting point is 00:20:55 Yes. Is it growing faster in red states than blue? Yes. Why? Multiple reasons. One of them is because people in those states are overcoming the obstacles that red state governors, listening to the national party put in their place. They're growing faster in red states than blue.
Starting point is 00:21:16 Why? People need access. And it has to be affordable. Fight that fight. Not Epstein. Okay? not who's pardoning who and who should be censured. These are only stupid distractions to keep us divided.
Starting point is 00:21:31 I have... I'm not even a yeller, by the way, to be honest. I raise my voice because you have to meet the medium. And I don't know if you've listened to podcasts lately, but they, you guys pay attention to things that are louder. In fact, a guy who works for YouTube told me exactly that, by the way, to up the volume on my episodes. Anyway, go ahead.
Starting point is 00:21:51 No, what did he say? To, like, scream more? No, but they should be louder that people when they're going through things that are louder make them listen. Oh, like actually literally bring up the value. Yeah, I think that that's a young person thing, by the way. I do think that older people. Well, it's like they do that with commercials. Like they would like.
Starting point is 00:22:07 Yes. Yes. Exactly. That's why. That's why. Like you're watching a TV show and you're kind of keeping it down because the baby's sleeping. And all of a sudden it's like, you know, relax them. You know, and you're like, whoa.
Starting point is 00:22:17 You know, and you got to lower it. Why? Because they know they get your attention. Well, I will keep the volume low for this. one and then I'll let you bring it back up. This is your interview recently with Alan Dershowitz. A lot of the comments did not pertain to the content of the interview because it was about the judiciary and judges and the Supreme Court and things like that. Many of these comments reflect how the comment section went. The Strawberry Fields 88. Is this the guy that says a 17-year-old
Starting point is 00:22:45 isn't a child? 28822. Why would you have him on, Chris? No one cares of this guy thinks anymore. He's in the Epstein Files, too. B.W. Burnham. Why would anybody listen to Alan Dershowitz? I could go on if you'd like. Boy, oh boy, I got to tell you, what are you going to do when lefties show up as having known Epstein and been in places where they may have been able to recognize what was going on? Maybe not. Let me tell you something about Dershowitz. He did something that is very rare. First of all, it's bullshit that he's in the Epstein files. Okay. That is a suggestion that there is bad stuff about him in there that people should know about. Now, you may not like this, but you would if I were talking about a person who's in office on the left right now who you need and not Alan
Starting point is 00:23:32 Dershowitz. Okay? So let's say this was Hakeem Jeffries. Okay? I'm not talking about Dershowitz. I'm talking about Hakeem Jeffries. He is accused of having had sex. A woman says I was made to have sex with him. Ugly accusation, okay? How old was she at the time? Legal but young, okay? Which is wrong, by the way. Again, right and wrong. You know, 17 makes you legal. Now, Dershowitz is not the one advancing that shit. Megan Kelly is. Okay, why aren't people going after Megan Kelly? Megan Kelly is the one who says, oh, he's not really a pedophile. And then she didn't know the right word. The right word is a febophile. You know what in a febophile is? Someone who's sexually attracted to teenagers. Now, is that a meaningless distinction? To me, it is.
Starting point is 00:24:18 if you're with someone that young you're fucked up period easy simple test right and wrong not about what works for right and left dershowitz hakeem jeffreys is accused hakeem jeffreys is able to show that he was not where the accuser says he was at that time she changes the date he wasn't there she changes the date three times wasn't there eventually the accuser says i may have mistook Hakeem Jeffries for somebody else. It may have been somebody else. I won out of the suit. He's suing.
Starting point is 00:24:50 Hakeem is suing her saying you defamed me. I can prove I wasn't there. I can prove it didn't happen. Do you know how hard that is to prove the non-existence of a fact? To prove I didn't do this? Why do you think our justice system has worked the other way? The burden of proof is on who? The accuser.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Why? Because we like to blame accusers? No, because the burden is on you to show. Because it's very hard to show. I didn't do something. Prove to me that you didn't. steal blah, blah, blah last night. Well, I was home. Who says it? Oh, Greg and I were watching TV. Let me go after Greg's credibility. Oh, wait, you had a beer last night? I don't believe him
Starting point is 00:25:22 anymore. It's very hard to do. Alan Dershowitz disproves the legitimacy of the accusation. The accuser pulls it, and I'll tell you something else. God bless Virginia Joufrey for what she went through and what she had to deal with. Took her own life. Fucking horrible, okay? I will tell you something. Sometimes, for good reason or bad reason, people who are traumatized and you got to say that Joufrey is in that category, okay, their recollections aren't 100%. The Fed spent a lot of time and wanted to hang their prosecution of Epstein on her. They never put her on the stand. Why? Because she had problems with her testimony. Look, that's just the truth, okay? I'm not judging her. I'm not, you know, judging. I know Alan is, but Alan was accused by her, okay? He beat the accusation. She withdrew it
Starting point is 00:26:17 and you still want to say he's in the files. That's not about right and wrong. That's about advantage of right over left and you think he wants to help Trump. I'm telling you, you're wrong on this. If Alan Dershowitz had names of other prominent people that could reasonably be implicated in what happened, he'd be the first one to dump them. Why? To get the stink off him with people like you. He is desperate to have you lefties liking him again. And I'll tell you what, man. You guys weren't like this when it was Clinton. I'm old enough to remember that. Okay? When it was Clinton, it was, look, she's young. Okay. But he's not my uncle. I mean, he's president. And the test should be different. And this is about much bigger issues than his
Starting point is 00:27:00 sex life. And I didn't hire a pastor. And there was all this fucking bullshit back then. Now, now, now. you're the moral majority. I don't buy it. A different issue came up in that conversation. You talked a lot about organ donation. Yeah. Kane, BTC, writes, if organs were a big trade, some deep state would make a deal with Yamaha to make breaks that randomly fail. You're stupid.
Starting point is 00:27:22 You know, do you remember that hot mic moment with President Xi and President Putin of Russia where they're talking about living forever and organ transplants and how they think the scientists can now get them to like 150 years old or something like that's pretty cool right would you want to live to 150 i think it's about quality of life uh i've never been one actually uh i don't really have a that strong this is going to be a mixed message for people i don't have a big interest in longevity okay now people will be like what do you mean yeah you work out you take all those that's right because i do have a huge interest in performance i want to be able to do what I want to be able to do for as long as I can.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Now, that's going to end. To me, I find that unacceptable, which I know is a code word for meaning something much worse. And people use it as a bullshit thing all the time when they have to say something is unacceptable because they don't really want to own it unless the other side does it. But for me, I don't want to be an old man. I don't want to have that kind of diminished capacity. I'm not ready to accept it psychologically and emotionally. I'd rather die in some heroic way doing something that was.
Starting point is 00:28:35 was good for somebody else. I do want to perform at my level. I'm almost at my minimum level of acceptable performance, where beyond this, I can't do the things that make me, me, in my opinion. Now, that's my choice, right? I'm 55 years old. That's my agency. That's my choice. I believe that science is going to keep us alive. Look, it already has. The average age used to be like 37, right? Science, medicine. Of course, we're undoing a lot of this with our food, right? Because if you think about it, people lived to be 37, 42, 45, and what were they eating? All organic. No chemicals, no glycophate.
Starting point is 00:29:13 None of those things. I don't know. They were drinking a lot of beer back then. That was like 1% beer. But it didn't have the chemicals in it. Everything was clean. Everybody was eating clean. All we had was clean.
Starting point is 00:29:20 What are you talking about? They all shit in the river. Like, people were shit in the streets nonstop. There weren't that many people. I know, but there's still plenty. Every person is the same amount of shit from each person. We did have sepsis issues and we did have sanitation issues. But I'm saying in terms of food.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Food was much cleaner than it is today. Well, yeah, I'm sure. GMO and all that other shit. So we're undoing a lot of what we've done through science. But I do believe that people are going to be getting organs and they're going to get tissues and they're going to get a lot of things a lot faster. Yep, yep, yep.
Starting point is 00:29:51 Support for the Chris Cuomo project comes from Ruggiet. All right, let's be straight, okay? Fellas, if you want a little bit more lead in the pencil, the problem isn't just admitting that and going to your doctor and figuring out what will help you out. it's making it happen. And I'm not talking about in the bedroom. I'm talking about in the pharmacy.
Starting point is 00:30:11 It sucks going to the pharmacy, especially when you're there to pick up an ED treatment. It's embarrassing for people. Not for me, but I get why you might have shame in your game about it, and the old lady is coughing and in front of you, and it takes forever, and they're all looking at you when the lady, you know, says, what can I get you?
Starting point is 00:30:29 Meet Rougiette ready. The first ever ED treatment to prime the body, brain for arousal and boost blood flow at the same time. Just getting blood flow if it doesn't help you want that blood flow is kind of useless and you're just walking around with a pocket rocket and no real reason to have it. Ruggiet deals with both, works in as little as 15 minutes, stays effective for up to 36 hours, and it helps you address both the physical and mental aspects of ED. And a lot of traditional pills don't do that. here's the best part. Getting Ruggiette is simple. The whole process is 100% online, so no more
Starting point is 00:31:11 the pharmacy and the old coughing lady. You ready to give Ruggiet a try? You get 15% off your first order if you go to Rougiet.com. That's RUG-I-E-T-com slash Cuomo. Use the code Cuomo, or you can just use the link in the video description, and you can also scan the QR code and claim this offer and tell them Cuomo sent you.

Starting point is 00:31:45 Individual results may vary. Full safety information is available at ridget.com. We have comments, like I said, up top from all over the place. Spotify's comments, apparently, from a episode about the Trump memo that was talking about how we can go after protesters more easily. M.B. wrote, I really find social media boring. good use it less i think that's a great i think that's a great observation like so many people are like facebook isn't really like a social network anymore it's just a bunch of like a i slop and old
Starting point is 00:32:14 people trying to like share good occasional pictures but like social media itself if you look at instagram they've they've deemphasized pictures it's all video and reels now and so it is a it is a very different beast than it was even 10 years ago yes five years ago uh it's gotten worse uh it's all about money it's all about clickbait it's all about outrage and not just for the user for the platform. Their algorithms are designed to enhance outrage and to be provocative. That's what they do.
Starting point is 00:32:41 Well, on a totally different subject. Also from Spotify, this is from your interview with Manu Meal. He was the Gen Z activist who was trying to build like a campus movement right now. Tom writes, Bring back the sit-ins
Starting point is 00:32:52 and the non-violent revolution. I would venture to guess that is where many of us graze at the no-kings rally came from. The shit ain't nothing like what we had in the 60s and 70s. That's true. You also weren't getting shipped off
Starting point is 00:33:03 to a war that you were dying in on a false premise and uh in a way that you couldn't control and there was a draft so you had more incendiary issues you had blacks that were actively seen as less than by a huge part of the population who were resisting equality uh so you were dealing with big fucking problems now I'm fine with all of it if you have a right to do it then you figure out whether or not it is right to do it. But I think that what Manu is doing is way more helpful than a sit-in. Creating conversation as a bridge to people who don't agree on an issue is way more valuable
Starting point is 00:33:43 to us right now because we're more siloed than we've ever been. And there's a disconnect between community and social media than we've ever had before. I'm telling you, you people acting away on social media that you do not act face to face. Now, some of you are becoming reclusive where all you do is live through your phone, especially younger people. Derek Thompson has a great article about this that just came out, but it was about how people are essentially becoming digital monks and just living in home and jacking off and gambling and like, you're having these like, what would be considered like, you know, obscene behavior a hundred years ago. You're just doing this in the comfort of your home, but you're never leaving your home. So you become this like weird hurt. Yeah, I think it's a problem.
Starting point is 00:34:24 And look, I've seen it with my own kids. One of the best things my kid has going for her and her school is, her principal, Britney Carrero, decided with the parents or whatever the bureaucracy was to take the phones away. Not having the phone during the day,
Starting point is 00:34:41 reduced bullying, reduced social anxiety, increased focus in the classroom, increased performance. Duh. Now the school she's going to, at night, there's a time where the phone goes off, the Wi-Fi goes off. And we don't have her on a wireless plan. You've got to have Wi-Fi for her. So it limits that and less is more social media look if i want to learn how to tie knots i get in there i
Starting point is 00:35:09 start seeing stuff about fishing and it's all it's really useful to me okay that's great but you got to deal with what it's used for most and what it's used for most right now is to divide and for people to be less than and i know look i mean you win anyway right you're getting access to it i think there has to be regulation. I think there has to be rules and accountability and responsibilities for the people running these platforms. I think this is outer control and a disaster. This is from the real war for America has begun. This came out right after the off cycle elections a few weeks ago. Casey Durham writes, NYC is a disgusting shithole. It has been since the 80s. It doesn't matter to real Americans. I totally disagree with Cuomo. I disagree. One, you're exaggerating. You don't know what
Starting point is 00:35:53 you're talking about. You don't understand the history of the city. I don't know if you've ever been here or what you decide to value in the city there's a reason that when people come to America there's one place they want to go to more than anywhere else guess where it is Vegas not where you live okay here New York City okay this place is the metaphor for what was supposed to be the American mentality if you can make it there you can make it anywhere it's up to you New York New York okay that's the song for a reason the Statue of Liberty is here for a reason. We haven't moved it for a reason. Okay. Now, could it be better? Does it represent a lot of things that suck also? Yes, yes, yes. All true. All true. But it is the laboratory of what this
Starting point is 00:36:41 country is in the process of becoming for better or worse. As I mentioned, we get text messages at that phone number. We'll put that on the screen right now. If you want to text us or call us, we can take those. This is from Charles and Florida. Trump claims he stopped seven wars since taking office for the second time last January. Can you inform us what seven wars he's referring to? I can, but so can you by going on chat GPT. The question is, if you have to ask the question, doesn't that already give you your answer? And I say, yes, the answer is in the question, meaning you don't even know what he's talking about. And the ones that do matter, he hasn't ended. And I'll tell you what else. Why are we dealing with Epstein as a point of urgency and we have to
Starting point is 00:37:19 know where the government, what they did with it and transparency? And not Venezuela. Are you kidding? don't know why he blew up those ships. Pete Hegseth tells you they were drug dealers and you're like, oh, good enough for me. Are you fucking kidding me? He has dozens of, of military assets surrounding the coastline. And we haven't had a discussion about it. And you're okay with that. Ukraine's assistance was too much for the Republicans under Biden. It's too much. You're doing too much without Congress. Venezuela, they say nothing. That's the problem. that's the problem we're not about right and wrong we're about selective outrage so his seven wars it's bullshit okay it's bullshit the guy wants the Nobel Peace Prize he's about to attack
Starting point is 00:38:07 Venezuela give me a fucking break be consistent right and wrong not right and left everything becomes clear support for the Chris Cuomo project comes from noble listen you know what matters when you travel everything right it's all about how do you make this easier?

Who knows? You'll see the commercial with the gorilla jumping up and down on it. Then it's with the hotel staff. Then it's
Starting point is 00:38:56 with whoever brings it up to the room. Then it's with whoever comes in to clean the room every time you're gone, right? And did you know how easy it is to pop a zipper? A bullpoint pen can pierce most zippers like in seconds. Then you can just re-zip it and nobody knows that somebody went through and took all your stuff. Passport, laptop, meds, right? Everything's gone before you even know it. That's where Noble comes in. Noble completely removes the zipper. It's zipperless. It's a latch-locked suitcase. Closes like a safe.

Starting point is 00:40:45 By the time you're watching this, it's Thanksgiving. That's when this video is releasing. And there is a question from the video on Trump's revenge that he's carrying out. Mopreem, Tennessee writes, man, your thanksgivings must be brutal. No, you're wrong. Why? Because we love each other and we have discussions, but we're decent to each other. Not like you fuckers on social media.
Starting point is 00:41:13 I'm serious. If somebody at my table, again, you know, you people think you know me, you don't know me. You think I grew up rich. You're wrong. Actually, can I chime with a question about that? Somebody wrote. God forbid, I finished my answer. No, Chris, you are unfortunately not qualified to comment on this issue because whether
Starting point is 00:41:29 you want to face it or not, you come from privileged and will never understand living paycheck to paycheck. Your dad was freaking Mario Cuomo. You were born the head start and a silver spoon. Your commentary rings hollow. I just want to because you mentioned that. I want to say people are right. So therefore, you can never comment on anything that you do yourself don't do.
Starting point is 00:41:45 I never want to hear you talk about professional sports again. I never want to hear you about any movies or any music that you didn't participate in making something of equal value it is a stupid false premise done for you to elevate yourself because you've had it so hard everybody's got a hard luck story i get it okay i've had my own trials uh i just don't wear them on my sleeve to justify lack of performance okay if you want to do that that's fine but i'll tell you what i was raised by a guy who will go hardship uh for hardship with you whenever you want of abuse of poverty of fear of otherism of racism or what you call racism which i call prejudice and bigotry and he overcame why because that's what was in him
Starting point is 00:42:38 and he got lucky um you don't know me you don't know what i've been through what i haven't and no matter what it is it's it's not disqualifying you are led the major populist movement of the modern age to take on the problems that you just detailed is led by a man who is one of the wealthiest people and always has been his whole fucking life. What does that tell you? Why did so many more people like you than you vote for him if what you're saying is the immutable truth? Because it's not the immutable truth. It's your fucking opinion. And that's all it is. So, one, of course, you don't have to live something to understand it, okay? Have you been to China?
Starting point is 00:43:22 Do you know it exists, even though you haven't been there? Okay, you're easy to beat rhetorically. That's not what really matters. What really matters is, you don't know me. You know what I tell you. You know what others tell you, but you don't know. So why don't you shut your mouth and worry about you and the basis of your own opinions? Well, that's spirit. It's the end of the episode. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Look, I'll tell you what I wish you for Thanksgiving. Sure. There's absolutely, to the point of my last asshole commenter, there's absolutely zero chance you have nothing in your life to be thankful for. And I'll tell you what. I don't know if you've had this experience, but you will. When you are looking at somebody who's about to die, it doesn't have to be on a battlefield.
Starting point is 00:44:08 It doesn't have to be anything dramatic that I've been bathed in for the last 25 years. But it's grandma, it's grandpa. It's someone who's had a great life. and it's gone. Let me tell you, all people who see the end care about is the chance for more. They are so thankful for every day, but the rest of us are not. We want that day to be filled with things that meet certain expectations as opposed to just having that one simple opportunity that so many don't get, so many die. Young, middle-aged, accidents, intentionality, circumstance, disease, age, whatever it is.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Could be a car accident. Could be you taking a drug you shouldn't have taken. Could be somebody else making a horrible choice to end your life. It could be disease. Could be whatever it is. Everybody has things to be thankful for. But we don't think that way. We don't focus on that.
Starting point is 00:45:08 We focus on the resentment. We focus on the insecurity. We focus on what we don't have. We are obsessed with the negative for Thanksgiving. We're doing an exercise at my house, okay? And a lot of people used to do this when you grew up. What do you thankful for, Greg? What are you thankful for you?
Starting point is 00:45:25 And you'd be like, oh, I can't, I hope they don't come to me. No, we did that. We did that recently in my wife's house. It is a practice. I know it sounds woo-woo and I have zero woo-woo in me. But gratitude is a practice. These are habits. You did not become a miserable bastard overnight.
Starting point is 00:45:42 You have taught yourself to be this way. and you can unteach yourself to be this way and to be a different way for thanksgiving let me tell you something if you're having a brawl at thanksgiving that ruins the occasion because you're talking about trump or maga or epstein or anything like that you guys must be doing great you must have an amazing life because if that's important enough to dominate the precious time you have instead of hey man the little girl looks great you know we have a lot of stuff that you guys could use and you're going to use coming up or hey I heard this kid wants a job or you know what I should spend more time with this guy if you are wasting the precious idea of being around people that are your blood that are the family that you choose on top of your blood and you waste it with things that don't even matter that you don't give a shit about that you read about on social media you are missing the meaning of why we have the day at all I wish you were happy Thanksgiving because you should be giving thanks. And I'm thankful that you said that because I think now I'm when I go back to
Starting point is 00:46:49 this bakery, I'm going to let it go. I'm not going to be upset that they didn't have that thing I wanted last time and maybe I'll get one for you. Look, I like that you have changed, that you won't say the word cardamom because you know. I'll say cardam. I forgot which one I was talking about. It's not a New York thing. I'm trying to help you. But I know it's not a New York thing. It's a, it is a Danish bakery. I don't mean they bake Danishes. I mean it is a Danish chain. It's called like Ali and Steen. I'm trying to make you one of us. I am one of you. I've been living here for 10 years. I think it's 15. If you live in New York for 15, you're a New Yorker. I've been here 10 years. My pants are 12 years old. You understand what I'm saying? You need to have a bagel
Starting point is 00:47:27 with a smear. I have a bagel every weekend. You get some street meat. I go to this one place on the way to your apartment. My wife loves these things. I usually get one for me and I bring one home for her. And now I'll bring one to you the next time I come here. His wife, key word. You know what a man eats we have senator Rand Paul coming up in two minutes some of it is for fun but there's food for thought in there as well just doesn't contain cardam thank you for subscribing and following thank you for being part of the Chris Cuomo project I am very thankful for having the opportunity to be part of your life and what you choose to listen to and to watch and hopefully it makes you think my point is not to make you agree with me it's not to make you angry it's to make
Starting point is 00:48:17 you think be a critical thinker be an independent be a free agent that is all not right and left get back to right versus wrong i'll see you soon my brothers and sisters enjoy one another
