Off the Cupp with S.E. Cupp

Welcome to another jam-packed week in Trump's America. S.E. shares her hot take on the deep irony of Trump's pro-Democracy message to Iranian protestors while federal agents continue to use violent force against protesters right here at home. There's a lot to unpack. And stay tuned for S.E.'s interview with Philip Mudd, someone S.E. goes to for the real inside scoop on national security issues. The former counterterrorism expert who worked both the CIA and the FBI, weighs in on Greenland, Trump's new regime-change hobby, and whether the rule of law will survive, even if we do.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, our resident reality TV obsessive gets to sit down with realty TV OG star, Nicole Polizzi, or Snooki, from Jersey Shore. S.E. and Nicole dive into the behind-the-scenes of the making of that early reality TV series, her thoughts on her cast mates — then and now — and what she thinks about reality TV now. Nicole talks about how she was able to transform her reality TV career into a Jessica-Simpson-like empire and if she'll continue doing the spin-offs. Stay Tuned for a very GTL lightning round! If you want more Snooki, keep an eye out for a new ghost-hunting series called Snooki: Paranormal Rookie and show Snooki'e closet at The Snooki Shop.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Talkin' Politics is back and barely a week into this new year there's already so much to talk about, including Trump's abrupt pivot to nation building? While Trump and his surrogates decide why they bombed Venezuela and captured President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, S.E. ruminates on Trump's signature policy: America First. Since the height of that isolationist marketing pitch, something's changed. S.E. gives her hot take on it all and asks her guest, former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman, is there a line in the sand for Trump's MAGA followers? Also, S.E.'s checks in with Larry Beinhart, author of the 1993 novel American Hero, which became the basis for the movie Wag the Dog, about a politically cooked-up, made-for-TV war to benefit a sitting president. Fitting?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The first episode of 2026 and it’s a big one! S.E. sits down with fellow M***hole, Denis Leary in a super fun and hilarious conversation about Denis’ childhood, his path to acting and his favorite early work. The two also can’t help but dive into all things Boston and S.E. forced Denis to reveal some of his favorite spots in the area. Denis shares his thoughts on humor, some hilarious stories about his family, and sports is the thing that truly drives him. Stay tuned for a very Boston lightning round and — prepare yourselves! — the accents come out! Catch Denis Leary in Oh. What. Fun, streaming now on Amazon Prime. And the second season of Going Dutch starts January 15th on Hulu. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Happy New Year’s Eve! If you’re an avid listener, you know how S.E. likes to end her interviews, with her favorite question: When is iced coffee season? And if you’re an avid listener, you’ll know there’s a right and wrong answer. What better way to recap the year — and look back a the fantastic slew of guests S.E. had — than by remembering who’s on the right side of this all important question, and who we’ll still love anyway.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
