Citizen McCain with Meghan McCain

It’s a family affair on today’s episode of Citizen McCain! Meghan and Miranda are back from summer break and diving into everything from grief and growing up McCain, to K-pop singalongs and the strange world of Disney adults. They’re joined by a very special guest, Meghan’s brother, Jimmy McCain. They open up about life in a legendary political family, navigating loss in the public eye, and the childhood moments that shaped them both. Plus: Summer recaps, sibling laughs, and a slow roll back into the chaos of today’s news cycle, with a little more heart and fun family stories.

Meghan and Miranda are heading out on a quick summer break, but not before getting ahead of everyone's favorite rumor. No, they didn’t have a falling out. And if they ever do? Miranda promises a live couples therapy episode with all the messy details (you’re welcome). Before they pack their bags, they dive into the viral debate over Gentle Parenting vs. FAFO Parenting, joined by columnist and mom-of-three Karol Markowicz for her unfiltered take. Also on the docket: Elizabeth Warren’s eyebrow-raising endorsement of Zohran Mamdani Jim Acosta interviewing an AI-generated Parkland victim (yes, that really happened) Rumors swirling around Gayle King and Howard Stern’s possible “retirements” And of course, they couldn’t leave you without a little dose of Annabelle. Is the spirit of Lorraine Warren now haunting Matt Rife and Elton Castee? Meghan and Miranda absolutely think so. This one’s a sendoff filled with hot takes, ghost gossip, and promises of chaos to come. See you in two weeks!

Meghan and Miranda kick off with one of the wildest headlines yet: comedian Matt Rife has officially bought the Warren Occult Museum. Yes, the one that houses Annabelle the haunted doll. They’ve got thoughts (and maybe a few warnings). Then, the legendary Dr. Drew Pinsky joins for a deep dive into the psychological state of America post-2020. From the lingering effects of Covid-era fear to the unsettling surge in AI porn and hyper-potent marijuana use among young people, Dr. Drew brings sharp insight and serious perspective. It’s part horror story, part health wake-up call... and 100% can’t-miss.

Meghan and Miranda kick off the show relieved that Miranda didn’t get swept away by the tsunami warnings on the West Coast, but the internet drama? That’s another story. They dive into Sydney Sweeney’s viral American Eagle ad and the online obsession with her “good jeans.” Then, Daily Mail’s Nikki Schwab joins to unpack Trump’s latest twist on the Epstein fallout... including a wild claim that he “stole” women from Mar-a-Lago. Also on deck: Cory Booker’s Senate floor meltdown where he takes aim at his own party, and that chaotic, candid, and kinda confusing Hunter Biden interview. It’s a wave of politics, pop culture, and everything in between.

Meghan and Miranda kick off this supersized episode with a rant we can all get behind: enough with the superhero movies already! They share their love for original films like 'Eddington' and their frustration that no one’s seeing them (seriously, why is it only playing at 10pm?). Then, Ethan Strauss, host of Random Offense and writer of House of Strauss, joins to talk sports, culture, and why we may never see larger-than-life legends like Barkley, Shaq, or Rodman again. His takes are sharp, unfiltered, and full of surprises. Later, journalist and bestselling author Vicky Ward stops by for an exclusive look at the Idaho Four case. She shares details from her new book, emotional moments from the courtroom, and what the media keeps missing. Plus: fresh Epstein reporting, what’s next for Ghislaine Maxwell, and whether a pardon might actually be in play. Movies, media, legends, and legal drama... it’s a packed episode you don’t want to miss.

In this rare long-form interview, Gisele Fetterman sits down with Meghan for an unfiltered conversation about her remarkable journey, from undocumented immigrant to community leader and outspoken advocate. She shares what it’s really like being married to a U.S. Senator, raising kids in the public eye, and why she’s never had political ambitions of her own. Gisele opens up about her work as a volunteer firefighter, the intense media attention she’s faced, and the growing speculation about whether her husband, Senator John Fetterman, could be eyeing a 2028 presidential run. It’s thoughtful, unexpected, and deeply personal. Don’t miss this one.

Meghan and Miranda kick off the show reacting to the bombshell news: The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is coming to an end. Miranda’s not shocked... she’s been calling it for weeks and breaks down exactly how she saw it coming. Then journalist and friend of the show Salena Zito joins to talk about her gripping new book, Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America’s Heartland. She shares how that moment changed the country, the media, and possibly Trump himself, and why the press still refuses to face the truth. Finally, the girls serve up a fresh Annabelle update (because of course the demon doll is still causing chaos), and side-eye RFK Jr. for hiking Camelback Mountain during a brutal Arizona heatwave. From late-night exits to high-stakes political shifts, it’s a jam-packed episode you don’t want to miss.

Meghan and Miranda kick things off venting about the gnarly East Coast weather that nearly derailed Meghan’s trip to Pennsylvania for a big upcoming interview (spoiler: she made it, but not without a wild drive). Then Fox News Contributor and podcast host Mary Katharine Ham drops in for a fast-paced chat mixing politics and pop culture - from the never-ending Epstein saga to Trump’s new claim that the files were faked by Comey and Obama (sure, Jan). Also on deck: The Democratic Party’s approval ratings keep sinking Jennifer Love Hewitt is hit with cruel online body shaming Kelly Ripa overshares a little too much And... Annabelle is still on the loose. The girls close the show with sad news about Annabelle's handler, Dan Rivera, and a plea: it’s time to end the Devil’s on the Run Tour and lock that cursed doll up... for good!

Meghan and Miranda are still fired up over the bizarre, bipartisan blackout surrounding the Missing Epstein Files, but first, they have to talk about actual ghosts. Miranda had a haunting at home over the weekend and drags her husband on the mic to explain the creepy chaos. Then, Texas radio host Ben Ferguson joins with an update on the flood recovery efforts and shares what people can actually do to help. But when the convo turns to Epstein and Pam Bondi, sparks fly... and Meghan and Ben don’t exactly see eye to eye. Finally, deep-state detective Kristen “Colonel Kurtz" Lacefield storms in with theories, receipts, and fury after President Trump’s cryptic shoutout to his “boys and gals.” She’s got fresh MAGA-world intel and zero patience for the media spin. It’s a wild one — haunted houses, political coverups, and a whole lot of fire.

Meghan and Miranda are fuming. After years of whispers, leaks, and broken promises, the long-awaited Epstein Files turn out to be... an epic flop? Suddenly, The New York Times and MAGA influencers alike are telling us to “move along”? Absolutely not. USA Today’s Washington Bureau Chief Susan Page joins to unpack the political blowback from this bipartisan blackout — and why Pam Bondi might be caught in the crossfire. Plus, she previews her must-read column marking one year since the assassination attempt on then-candidate Trump. And later, YouTuber and culture critic Colonel Kurtz dives into the public gaslighting, media memory-holing, and whether the administration can dig itself out of what looks a lot like an elite-level cover-up. This episode pulls no punches... and brings the receipts.

Meghan and Miranda are back from the Fourth... rested, recharged, and heartbroken. The tragic events at Camp Mystic and across Texas cast a shadow over the holiday weekend. Then, POLITICO’s Capitol Bureau Chief Rachael Bade joins to catch us up on everything you may have missed: the fallout from the Big Beautiful Bill, Elon Musk’s surprise third-party launch, and the growing heat on NYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani. Later, former UPenn swimmer Paula Scanlan joins to discuss the Supreme Court’s decision to review state bans on transgender athletes. She shares her personal experience competing alongside Lia Thomas, and what might be coming next from the Court. Politics, culture, tragedy, and tough conversations... it’s all in today’s episode.

Meghan’s riding solo today while Miranda battles a summer bug (don’t worry, she made her take the day off). But she’s got backup: political commentator Ryan Girdusky and The Hill’s Amie Parnes are here to break down the biggest stories heading into the Fourth of July weekend. From American patriotism hitting record lows, to UPenn officially scrubbing Lia Thomas’s wins, to the slow-motion meltdown of the Musk-Trump bromance... nothing’s off-limits. It’s sharp, punchy, and full of fireworks. Meghan and Miranda will be back after the holiday weekend — have a fabulous Fourth!

Meghan and Miranda kick things off by diving into the weirdest wedding of the year — Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s lavish yet totally random Venice affair. From the guest list to the décor, nothing made sense! Then, Fox News host Gianno Caldwell joins to talk rising crime in liberal-run cities and why New Yorkers (and major cities across the country) should be paying close attention to Mamdani’s wild mayoral campaign. Gianno shares his powerful personal story of losing his brother to gun violence in Chicago — and why this issue hits so close to home. Finally, the ladies close out the show finally getting to talk about 'Vanderpump Rules' star Tom Sandoval’s shockingly good 'America’s Got Talent' audition. They’re still riding hard for Team Tom — and now, maybe you will too.

Meghan sits down with our Second Lady, Usha Vance, for her first long-form interview since stepping into the national spotlight, and she’s sharing it all! Usha opens up about making the leap from Ohio to Capitol Hill, the beautiful chaos of raising kids in a two-faith household, and what it’s really like being one of the most famous women in the world. Plus, Meghan drops some personal news of her own — baby number three is on the way and is a boy — Usha shares some heartfelt parenting advice. Don’t miss Usha’s sweet story about falling in love with the Vice President back at Yale. It’s a candid, charming chat you’ll want to hear!

Meghan and Miranda open the show with huge news they’ve been teasing all week: Meghan’s scored an exclusive interview with Second Lady Usha Vance — oh, and she and Ben are expecting their third baby! Then they’re joined by Iran policy expert Alireza Jafarzadeh to break down the latest on the escalating Iran crisis. He explains why regime change must come from within — but the U.S. can’t afford to stand on the sidelines. Meghan and Miranda also debate this weekend’s strikes on Iran as Republicans like Rubio and J.D. Vance close ranks around the president, while AOC and others raise legal questions. And veteran TV producer and journalist Daniella Greenbaum joins to give her perspective on Israel and preview what’s at stake in NYC mayoral race.
