  • UPDATED WEEKLY

S.E. Cupp needs a break -- from the news, from politics, from the triggering headlines and heated discussions … from the mental load of it all. Off the Cupp is just that. It’s a place to get loose and personal, to talk about what’s going on in our lives - beyond (and, yes, maybe because of) the news. Through a lens of mental health, S.E. invites her famous guests — celebrities, athletes, authors, journalists, politicians, reality stars — to share their life stories, their trials and tribulations and to talk about what it’s like living in this world, even when this world can feel like a lot.

    Andy Ostroy on optimism and resistance

    This week, S.E. invites back her first repeat guest! Andy Ostroy is a writer, producer, director, podcast host, nonprofit founder, and a candy store owner. In his first interview, Andy shared the tragic story of his late wife — the actress, director, and screenwriter Adrienne Shelley — her brutal murder in 2006, and Andy's fight for justice. If you haven't listened to that, start there. This time, S.E. and Andy explore mental health in this age of political and just general news coverage. They talk about the ever-evolving media landscape, the surprising therapeutic benefits of Substack and they dive into some news, including the Epstein files, the 2028 presidential election and Trump's health.

    Talkin' Politics: Trump wants to nationalize elections. Believe him.

    On today's Talkin' Politics ... where to begin. How about Trump's proposal that we nationalize elections?! This, of course, is despite the Constitution's insistence they be decentralized. But when has the Constitution ever stopped Trump from dreaming big. S.E. unpacks the dangers of this, the very real preparations some states are taking in the event of a 'federal intervention' in our midterm elections, and more.  She's joined by CNN legal analyst Elie Honig who weighs in on the threat to the midterms and several other big stories, including Epstein. He also brings a fantastic Clinton story. Stay tuned! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Alisyn Camerota on punk nostalgia, vinyl parties, and reinvention after loss

    One of the thrills of having this podcast is that S.E. gets to sit down for a luxurious amount of time with her friends. And this episode is a special one for that reason. S.E. brings on her friend and fellow journalist Alisyn Camerota. They talk about Alisyn's nostalgia for the 'unpainted' punk 80s, why she was an "impatient and problematic employee" in her early days, their shared experiences at Fox News and carving out a life and a career in an unstable industry. They also dig into family life, relationships, and grief, which is still fresh for Alisyn who lost her husband to cancer in 2024. It's an emotional conversation but a fun one, too. Alisyn Camerota is an award-winning journalist and author of Combat Love. Find out more about her retreat here. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Talkin’ Politics: The politics of Minnesota and beyond

    On this episode of Talkin' Politics, S.E. talks shifting vibes and rhetoric around the ICE presence in Minneapolis, the continued verbal hypocrisies of the Trump administration and the tension between an inner circle that doesn't really want to change tactics and Republican lawmakers who can see the writing on the wall for 2026. Speaking of which, S.E. gives her hot, hot take on the midterms and brings on journalist and friend, Jamal Simmons to help suss out 2028 (yes) and the Democratic contenders.

    Talkin' Politics: A Dane weighs in on Trump's Greenland grab

    As Trump continues to saber-rattle through Davos, threatening to take Greenland, a sovereign Danish territory, S.E. wonders on today's Talkin' Politics, what do the Danes think of all this? At home, the Greenland grab seems to be popular with no one outside of Trump's inner circle. And Trump's increasingly unhinged, "mine, mine, mine" global political strategy is not only unsettling American markets, but potentially severing America from its longstanding allies. And for what? S.E gives you her hot take and talks to someone living through the other side of this — Danish journalist, Niels Overgaard. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
