Chris Cuomo responds to a new batch of listener calls and YouTube comments, diving into topics like Trump's support among Latino voters, the debate over whether violence drives societal change, and the controversy surrounding the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Ian Bremmer (political scientist and founder, Eurasia Group and GZERO Media) joins Chris Cuomo to break down how collapsing trust in institutions, the war in Ukraine, and the shifting balance of power between the U.S., China, and Russia are reshaping America's role in the world. They discuss whether U.S. political dysfunction, fueled by Trump's influence, is weakening America's global standing, how authoritarian governments are using misinformation to their advantage, and why economic and political instability are fueling uncertainty worldwide. Bremmer also weighs in on the future of U.S. support for Ukraine, how global alliances are evolving, and whether the U.S. is prepared for the next era of world leadership.

Chris Cuomo addresses his brother Andrew Cuomo's decision to run for mayor of New York City, explaining why he won't be covering the race on NewsNation—but also why he won't stay silent. He opens up about their relationship, the scrutiny that comes with public service, and the double standards in media when it comes to political ties. Cuomo reflects on how growing up in a political family shaped his career, why Andrew's candidacy is different from past campaigns, and how he is handling his brother's entrance into the mayor's race.

Stephen A. Smith (featured commentator and executive producer, ESPN's “First Take, and podcast host, “The Stephen A. Smith Show”) joins Chris Cuomo to address speculation about whether he could run for office—and whether he'd ever consider it. He and Cuomo break down why media personalities are sometimes seen as political figures, what that says about the state of leadership in America, and why Trump continues to dominate the political landscape. They also discuss the Democratic Party's struggles to connect with voters, Joy Reid's exit from MSNBC, and whether political media could ever function like sports media.

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Van Jackson, senior lecturer in international relations at Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand and writer of the Un-Diplomatic newsletter on SubStack, to discuss his recent book The Rivalry Peril: How Great-Power Competition Threatens Peace and Weakens Democracy, co-authored with Michael Brenes. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump's tariffs on Mexico and Canada, fallout from the Trump/Vance confrontation with Zelenskyy, Trump's attempt to cook the books on the US GDP, Trump's newest crypto scam, US-based money laundering, RFK's measles dance, Marco Rubio's billions for Israel, Trump assault on Social Security, the DHS' IRS scheme, and the Mayoral Campaign of noted sex pest Andrew Cuomo, also admiring the full-throated spinelessness of GOP representatives Kieth Self and Roger Marshall when faced with constituent backlash at Town Halls. Van Jackson then joins, diving right into the effective myth the US has built up around the Cold War as a beneficial struggle between two great powers, a belief central to the evolution of the US' counter-insurgency-focused regime of primacy that has developed in the power vacuum left by the Soviet Union, and why the US Foreign policy apparatus has been so resolute, from the Cheneys to the Biden Administration, in pivoting to a new great power struggle with China. Expanding on this, Jackson walks through the last couple of decades of US-China hawkery, with the shrinking dividends of Neoliberal globalization pushing both the US and Chinese economies toward economic nationalism, with the US establishment frantically attempting to cling to a dying world order of complete US primacy, as it corrupts and reshapes our politics domestically while contributing to death and destruction globally. After tackling how the Trump to Biden to Trump 2.0 pipeline effectively streamlined the US' commitment to an anti-China pivot, and why Trump's buddies in Silicon Valley are set to benefit greatly from this tension, Van, Sam, and Emma wrap up by touching on the greater imperialist nature of Trump's foreign policy, and why US-Chinese relations have trapped much of the developing world into choosing between Chinese lending power and American hegemony. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch the new state-backed-media (the Joe Rogan Experience) clear the stage to let Elon Musk lie to the American public about what the Trump/Musk regime is up to (and why), and listen to Marjorie Taylor Greene's boytoy attempt to confront Zelenskyy about his fashion sense. They also parse through the ongoing crypto fraud of the Trump/Musk regime, and the insanity of Trump's push to use Crypto as a strategic reserve, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Eikon team explores the tension between influence and humility, particularly in the context of their fields of ministry and professional sports. The hosts discuss their personal experiences and struggles with seeking influence and maintaining humility. They also delve into the concept of incarnational teaching and the importance of local influence. The pressure to be out in front and the desire for recognition are identified as challenges to humility. Ultimately, they emphasize the need to prioritize the heart's desires and to be content with the influence that aligns with God's will.Takeaways- View the work itself as the reward and find joy in the process.- Prioritize people over content and focus on individual touch and formation.- Strive for fruit rather than outcomes and avoid the status culture.- Be a resource rather than the main attraction and limit influence.- Embrace brokenness and humility and recognize the tension between seeking influence and embracing humility.Chapters00:00 - Introduction and Setting the Stage06:38 - The Tension Between Influence and Humility13:27 - Balancing Influence and Humility in Professional Sports23:51 - Incarnational Teaching and Local Influence27:11 - The Pressure to Be Out in Front31:05 - The Challenge of Desiring Influence32:11 - The Joy of the Work33:12 - Viewing the Work as the Reward35:19 - Limiting Influence37:16 - Putting People Over Content38:15 - Formation Over Efficiency39:12 - Individual Touch Over Scope and Reach40:10 - Being a Resource, Not the Meal41:36 - Avoiding the Status Culture42:29 - The Wisdom of Limiting Influence44:24 - The Example of BJ Foster45:49 - Balancing the Desire for Influence49:11 - Recognizing Brokenness and Embracing Humility50:10 - Triangulating Our Identity53:11 - The Competition Between God's Influence and Society's Influence55:28 - The Importance of Limiting Influence, Power, and Scope01:03:2 - The Challenge of Balancing Influence and Representation01:08:25 - The Tension Between Being Known and Being Forgotten

Religion and politics are two topics that we are told that we should avoid discussing, but in this episode of Nathan OUTloud I am facing them both head-on. The Season Two premiere of Nathan OUTloud comes about eight years since the last episode was released. I set aside the light and cheery tone of previous episodes to discuss the real issues being faced by the LGBTQ+ community at the hands of organized religion and the Republican Party. I share my experience of alienation and gaslighting from growing up in a Mormon and Republican family. Links to articles and movies that I mention in the episode: “The Mormon Church Is Gaslighting the LGBTQ+ Community” by Kat Kellermeyer: https://www.out.com/commentary/2019/9/19/mormon-church-gaslighting-lgbtq-community (https://www.out.com/commentary/2019/9/19/mormon-church-gaslighting-lgbtq-community) “11 Warning Signs of Gaslighting” by Stephanie A.

Nathan OUTloud originally launched in 2009 and over the course of three years, I released 15 episodes. And now, Nathan OUTloud is coming back and season two will be launching soon. When I first started the show, my intention was to provide a forum for members of the LGBTQ+ community and our allies to tell our stories. Our stories are incredibly important for two reasons. First, growing up as a gay kid in a Mormon family in Utah, I didn't hear or see stories that resembled my experience. I knew that I was different than the other kids, I just didn't know how or why. That isolation and uncertainty caused a lot of pain and loneliness. If by doing Nathan OUTloud, there is even one person who hears a story that they can relate to and it makes them feel less different or alone, Nathan OUTloud will achieve the purpose that led me to start the show. Secondly, I wanted our stories to reach those who might not know a member of the LGBTQ+ community personally, or at least don't know that they know someone who is a member of our community, as well as those who have bigoted, homophobic, or transphobic views or beliefs. I hope that our stories might touch their hearts and hopefully change their minds. It is undeniable that people who have personal relationships with somebody who is LGBTQ+, are more accepting, loving, and likely to become allies of our community. In addition to telling our stories, I wanted to challenge listeners to get involved in moving our community forward, whether that be through political action and activism, or by feeling more comfortable to share their story and to live authentically and visibly as a member of the LGBTQ+ family, including our allies. Finally, as a huge fan of music and the arts, I wanted to provide an opportunity for LGBTQ+ authors, artists, and musicians to share their talents and for listeners to be introduced to music, books, or films by members of our community. We all know that visibility and representation in all forms of media has a lasting positive impact on the lives of all LGBTQ+ people. I hope you will join me for Season 2 of Nathan OUTloud, by subscribing to the show on your favorite podcast platform and by following the show on twitter at nathanoutloud and on Facebook at http://facebook.com/nathanoutloudfans (facebook.com/nathanoutloudfans). If you would like to share your story, have a show idea, or if you are a musician and would like to have a song featured on an episode of Nathan OUTloud, call or text the Nathan OUTloud listener line at (802) 32-Be-Out, that is (802) 322-3688, you can also email comments@nathanoutloud.com, or send me a message on social media.

HAPPY MONDAY MOTIVATION! Welcome back to the weekly podcast No More Excuses! We're SO CLOSE, but are we? Many states are open, opening and others are preparing for the re-emergence. What I have seen is people are READY to get out and BE OUT! And to be around people. But are you ready? In last week's podcast, my friend Chandra Medina shared some tips surrounding the continued theme of "purging" specifically focusing on purging negative thoughts and how to replace them with more positive ones. Yes, again, easier said than done, but even I had to use her tips! This has been a very chaotic time, so more than ever we need to catch ourselves, and continue to PURGE! And... work on our attitudes and helping others do the same! It's not easy. People are chippy, anxious and ready to really understand WHAT'S NEXT! And, if you live in California like me, you may not fully understand! How'd you do with purging your mindset? Did you like hearing someone else on the podcast? Email me and let me know! And now, listen in this week as I continue to challenge you to prepare for the re-emergence with purging, and I share some examples of how some people I heard from last week manage their negative thoughts and well how I've also heard, and seen, people NOT doing well on social media and unfortunately out in public! No matter where you are on this "roller coaster ride", we need to stop judging and focus on doing OUR best. And, listen in, as I am about to hit a milestone with my podcasts and it's because of YOU - sharing the podcasts with others, so listen in on how 5 people will win $500 in coaching! Again, please, let's KEEP ON KEEPING ON, and take that one step further and help someone else do the same. PS - FREE WEBINAR WEDS, JUNE 1st! I'll talk about pivoting, mindset, strategies, and doing your best Click here to register! Cheers! Sandi

Hello. Please, calm down. Do not be afraid. I am your Doctor, Dr. Hereswhatidontget. You’ve been in a terrible accident. We had to place you into a comatose state for your body to heal itself. I’m afraid it’s been seven years since then. A lot has changed in the world as you once knew it. Due to rapid advances in medical science we were able to construct you a new body. It should feel just like your old one, but it will take some time to adjust. While you rest, we’ve gathered some books on what has changed while you’ve been sleeping: - Office Ladies - Swimming - Constant Connectivity - Too Old to Be Out in PublicParty time! WHO HOO! Here’s some cake and cookies. Oh, and some brownies and a couple of pies too. What? You were expecting some actual food? No, just some sweets, a little bit won’t hurt you. See the streamers and the cardboard letters strung up? I’m head of the party planning committee, and those mean it’s party time, so slap a smile on that face! I’d actually much rather be at home with a box of wine, my favorite shower head, and my cats, but what can you do! Since I can’t have that I need the rest of you to have that sugar crash and be miserable like me! One of us. One of us. One of us.Goggles? Check. Nose plug? Check. Ear Plugs? Check. Arm floaties? Check. Inner tube? Check. Congrats you nerd! You’re ready to swim! He looks like a loser, but damn it if he’s not right. Water in the ears, nose, eyes? All suck. Terribly.

Hello and welcome back to Meta Station! We picked up this week with all the Raven and Murphy we didn’t get to last time (with bonus soccer and Murphy being an unexpectedly solid bro), and spent a great deal of time falling head over heels for Lieutenant Zeke Shaw (stop trying to make “Miles” happen, show) as he, in turn, fell head over heels for that pain-in-the-ass computer genius thwarting his every plan. We’re also beside ourselves with glee at all the weird mysterious backstory hints we’re getting, from Order Eleven to the missing Eligius 3, and watching with great excitement as the trio of Diyoza/Shaw/McCreary gets more and more messy with every passing day. True to our brand, we spent nearly an hour and a half on Marcus Kane and his relationships with the women at the heart of this episode – Octavia, Abby and Indra – and the way his very existence threatens the entire social and religious structure of Wonkru. (Does Octavia know she’s literally his new Pike? And HOLY SHIT FAM, has he EVER been more relieved to see Bellamy?????) As a wee preview of our upcoming OTP roundtables, we also each gave ourselves a segment to just explode with feelings about our ships: Erin is HYPED that Clarke and Bellamy each have their partner back, while Claire is stoked as hell that Kane and Abby appear to be headed for a season-long arc where they aren’t separated, and we both lost our shit at both the Bravenlarke reunion, and how beautifully the show is nailing Abby’s addiction storyline so far. Plus bonus Blake feels, and fun with Pandora’s Boxes!
