Cox.

I make journalism, columns, and podcasts about how people survive the worlds they're handed—and build the ones they need.

How I got here.

2004
Founded Wonkette, which turned out to matter more than I expected, and wrote it for longer than was probably good for me.

2011
Got sober. Reorganized everything.

2011–14
Guardian columnist, covering politics from Minneapolis—outside the Beltway geographically and otherwise. Archive →

2014–15
Columnist for The Daily Beast. Archive →

2015–17
Conducted the "Talk" interviews for the New York Times Magazine, still some of the best work I've done. Archive →

2016
Covered the Trump circus for MTV News. Still processing.

2017–22
Hosted With Friends Like These on Crooked Media—five years of conversations about politics, identity, and how people actually talk to each other across difference. Archive →

2021
Moved back to Austin.

Now
Contributing Editor at The New Republic. Hosting Past Due with Open Mike Eagle and Space the Nation with Dan Drezner. Running a morning writing group. Pivoting to video, apparently. Based in Austin.
