Goy Slop!!

Liz has been a closeted Jersey girl this whole time??

John Lemieux

Excited to learn about all the sniffies encounters brace had at the nova music festival museum of tolerance and beats

Shiv

absoluteboi

2 hour episode (; thank you <3

Eoghan Flanagan

Norm Finkelstein should sue Brace for using his voice.

Philippe Duhart

Liz lives in New Jersey? I remember at time when leftwing podcasters lived in Brooklyn. But I guess that’s Bidenomics for you.

Bert

Listening to Liz complain about NJ Transit is very cathartic

M

REALLY want the nj transit nepotism ep

Kate Derringer

Giving Yung Chomsky a mic was one of the best things you could have done for this show

jsobrie

lol thought this was an episode 1 ep from the title at first

Ben Burke

Trains only suck when corrupt American demonrats are in charge. Real patriots know the Xi Jinping Thought Scientific 10 Year High Speed Rail plan has brought great prosperity

Taz

Re the amtrak point. When nc was a swing state our governor got amtrak to build a rail line between raleigh and charlotte. Runs 5x a day and is only 15-25 bucks. But now that the state is red nothing is being done

jordi pullem

when i wax poetic about trains never am i talking about Amtrak or really anything the US has to offer. i live in Tokyo and THAT is what i am talking about

John Swan

I feel so close to him

Rodrigo Burigo

liz being wrong about trains offends me personally

Sam

I don’t believe in the CIA allegations but Liz’s rant about trains is the closest I’ve gotten to it

the empty suit

This episode's opening just proves that Yung Chomsky should talk on the podcast more.

Return of The Mac 2nite

American train/trolly systems are deliberately underfunded and poorly maintained in order to protect and secure the dominance of the car industry

M

Love a podcaster complaining about commuting on a train, luckily you don't really have to be anywhere lol

CL

How is this thing real?

Peanut Horse

World Cup being in the US is gonna make our infrastructure everywhere look soooo bad lmao

Simon Maraya

Brace is a Branson character

Blank

YC I see you with the Vertigo ref

Jack

real Zone of Interest vibes

Robert Sayre

The music was Bicep - Glue ...not trance?

brodie

Trains & public transit are cool but only when the schedule actually works which is a bar that amtrak fails to get over all the fucking time.

Connor Dickinson

To be fair , the neglected ny/nj rail systems are more of a condemnation of those places than of trains in general . They’ve barley updated anything in like 100 years

Polida

Liz = Frank the Tank

My parents took me to universal studios and we ate lunch right where that trex killed all those people, it was terrible

OG Cracker Barrel

Train rant makes Liz’s boomer transformation complete

Rose

happy brat summer liz 💚

K H

It needs to get darker later because I need breast milk to get bigger.

Erika

Liz I totally agree with you on the state of public transit. Chicago’s CTA service has been terrible since the pandemic and we have a bunch of people who have no transportation experience running the CTA. They refuse to take accountability for the horrible service and for some reason Mayor Johnson is appointing pastors to leadership instead of taking any initiative to fix the system.

absoluteboi

That doesn't make trains bad though. If the country's conscience as a whole cared more about trains, we'd have better funded and more comprehensive public rail networks. The only reason we're pretending it can't be done, is because we're uncultured swine who never leave the states. Europe and Asia both have swathes of high quality rail services at affordable price points for commuters.

Jes

Really rude you chose to come to Philly when I left for stupid, hot NYC.

VenomdP

If I called up mid last month, is that still in the system for this upcoming EP or should I call in again? Not saying it's good enough for the EP, but figured worth a call!

Dennis

Liz acknowledging brat summer 💚💚💚

K H

I thought Liz was going to come out anti train in addition to anti cat anti The Doors, but she thankfully pivoted to demanding they do better or face summary execution. That is my general stance towards all public transit in the US.

The Fine Art Revolution

Did you guys ever come across the helicopter footage where IDF clearly were firing on fleeing Israelis in an open field. I have a feeling it was the nova festival attendees.

I have Mondays and Tuesdays off and when TA episodes drop I get grounded so well🤙🏼🙏🏼🖖🏼

Redwing Farm

Fucking hilarious that the DJ booth in the exhibition is playing Bicep who are two DJs from Belfast who’ve signed an open letter calling for the end of the siege of Gaza and definitely would not be performing there.

Stephen David Miller

I know this is a cheap pun, but Brace making fun of women’s box braids at the festival kept making me think of him and Liz as “Trance-Exclusionary Feminists”

K H

I suspect modern Israel is very much like Jim Crowe south would have felt. Which is to say everyone is a nazi or child of a nazi. In order to be a remotely decent person Israel you basically have to be sent to jail or get your ass kicked. Like you are obligated to directly abet or cheer for evil acts.

CL

I can not endorse this anti-train rhetoric

Tim O'

YC raising his voice 13 minutes in threw me way off guard. I don't want him to get mad or frustrated :(

absoluteboi

Nova: Dance Like It's 9/11

Gato gris

Na NJ transit is fucked

Gato gris

Liz despite not being born here, your noticeable transformation into a true new jerseyean has not gone unnoticed. The visceral rage about public transportation truly marks you as being home where you belong ❤️ We are still awaiting your judgement on porkroll vs Taylor ham

CL

Bad management doesn’t mean we throw it all out. We need more trains

dani loose

the use of “glue” by bicep in the museum just made my brain hemorrhage

Colin Helpio

Now I'm very curious if YC ever watched Pure Pwnage. 🤔

I am become reply guy

Israelis are so awful. Has anyone ever noted that one of the first scenes in Euphoria is of 9/11??

Erika

I completely agree. Trains are wonderful if they work well but in America they don’t because we’re so car centric and don’t care enough to find accessible and modern public transit. I’m just making note that in my city it has gotten notably worse since 2020.

Nick

Thank you Liz for connecting the blue no matter who energy to the train not working good.

birk

Where's the yungchomsky Nova Experience fit check?

j

The most engaged YC to date on the question of taint

Cale

I’ve been in the simulated gas chambers on a field trip in jr high. It was nothing compared to the holocaust simulation day my jr high also had…

Anne

If you ever have the opportunity, hezbollah has a museum in Lebanon. Museum wise it’s actually quite good. There’s exhibitions but you can also tour through an underground base and quite a lovely forest with foxholes etc. There’s a giftshop and cafetaria etc and for some reason they are very keen on waste separation and recycling. There are garbage stations all over the premises and explanations about hezbollahs commitment to nature? Anyway, walked out of there with a nazrallah lighter and hezbollah pen and T-shirt and would 10/10 recommend everyone to visit

pulled a muscle yearning

I think reciting the Kevin James tweet is the most agitated I've ever heard YC

kmd

We're finally getting amtrak thru my town and I'm stoked to be able to hop on and go to Dallas or Atlanta

kmd

Also please Hitch movie review ep

Tea for the Tillerman

Gangnam style was taking the world by storm around the same time as Benghazi…surely one of the last songs amb. Stevens heard

Ty

Talk more chomp

Zzz

Never again is slowly changing to “we will dance again”

Amy Immermann

This was a great podcast. I think one of your best I had to keep rewinding to listen in detail of your details about the exhibit it was really fascinating about the whole thing thank you

LPO Crane Jefferson

I find the 9/11 memorial so bizarre. It is filled with tourists from Europe; I would throw a fucking fit if my parents planned a vacation stop to there.

Deena

Can someone ID the song they played when Brace was using the “museum” porta potty? Sounded like Jamie xx, but every time I think that it ends up being Fred Again…

Pelican Grief

Love hearing more from YC. Great ep

Court

if i was bicep i would sue for slander being called psytrance

NX

Bicep - Glue

Reece Coren

when liz said tuesdee 🔥🔥🔥

Bess C

Similar to NJ transit and the World Cup, the CTA is not prepared in the slightest for the DNC it’s gonna be a disaster

Lulu

You guys need to do more field trips this was brilliant.

Eric

I can’t believe this is a real thing. If I owe $800 in Federal taxes how much of that goes towards murdering babies in Gaza? Is there an online calculator to figure this out?

Jeremy

Charli xcx mentioned

boop

12:50 yung chomsky going adam friedland mode

Carine

This whole thing sounds so camp... and for Pride Month! I guess Zionists are LGBT allies after all!

Carine

What we need to heal is a David Guetta "Shout out to the Nova Festival and their families" DJ set

Carine

I went and it was so fun! The tank with the tied nose (is that the word?) Is awesome. And bonus for diaspora Palestinians, there's a viewing point where you can see Palestine (which made me tear up, tbh)

Carine

And yeah the gift shop rocks! I got a tank ornament made out of olive wood, and a Hezbollah lighter and keychain!

MCL

Goop out

Billie Grey Heck

"It's like a matrix Lenny kravitz moment by way of Etsy Ganesh scarf store" is the most insane sentence I've ever heard in my life

Francis Mahlie

I don't know if I've ever been more excited to listen to an episode after reading the comments

pzd

Liz’s train take is every hog conservatives take on public transportation I am gonna be that guy: it’s the funding, maintenance, staffing, and lack of central planning buds, not the fact that the trains exist lmao Amtrak should be put to question tho medieval style

Brian Rainsford Marshall

I have relatives who went there. We have absolutely no connection to NY, 9/11 or even America.

G. Sandwich

came here to say this, at the risk of sounding like a redditard, trains rule, amtrak sucks

elizabethonline

i’d venture to guess that most memorials are built longer than a couple months post event, so this probably felt inappropriate/slipshod in the same way that hastily manufactured merch released right after a tragic event feels wrong. an attention grab in the style of the ice cream museum, sooo very 2024

K H

Idk. Israeli intelligence and operations seem kinda shit. They may not have known. Like they probably have some amount of people they have to smack down every year because they think Arabs literally have bat wings to fly over the wall. They just happened to for once be close enough to correct. Like saying Iran has a nuke all the time, probably a couple dudes don't realize it's theatre and want to nuke Iran and need to be demoted or told to shut up.

Luke

Burial

Shiv

and so very evocative

Shiv

my brain decided to read Lebanon as London and I just enjoyed some extremely confusing moments! Good tip now that I’m sorted out

E

Liz is a train cuck

Shiv

But the gong lives at the studio!

E

No but fr Liz is pretty fucking dumb to be anti train because she used bad trains lol, moronic

Anne

Hezbollah on tour in Lebanon would be cool though

Anne

Yes! With the biggest Lebanese flag ever made on top. Yea the tank so artsy, such a good museum

Doug Cartel

Doesnt seem like the trains are the problem, but rather, CAPITALISM god I'm so tired of blaming it but it never stops being true

SP

Can someone post the link to the sub stack they mentioned that compiled all of the "Bibi did 10/7" evidence?

Tammy

Grenade vs Hippies crying in a bunker video is in the AJ documentary (called I think just) “October 7th” w context provided.

Doug Cartel

It sounds like the audience for this is jewish new Yorkers, basically, to bully them into toeing the line. That's my best guess anyways Complete mystery to me why they thought they could effectively convey that message through the vision of the exact type of artsy rich kid cumtown made fun of

C. J

Yeah. Go travel Europe for 10 minutes. Trains fucking rule.

Tammy

Islamic Jihad TULKAREM brigade I think homie. Glory the martyrs! Free Palestine!

Jessie Cherbak

So is it a real poncho—I mean is it a Mexican poncho—or is it a Sears poncho

🤷🏼‍♀️

But she’s correct in that US trains fucking blow massive ass

yerrak

Brat summer mention happy pride month

Demented Avenger

Ah, Brace, a fellow traveller in the doesn't-listen-to-Nirvana club!

Sarah Hunt

as a kpop fan (i know im sorry) scooter braun is also the mortal enemy of all kpop fans because of his involvement in a label which has been just so awful and detrimental. also for his zionism.

Tammy

Glory to the gumshoes!

J98

Therefore trains are writ large...bad? Tell China about this, they need to invest in car infrastructure

Slik Smoothie

So first we gaslight yung Chomsky and try to convince him he’s suffering from dementia. And now we’re making ableist claims about the train pervert community your day of reckoning is upon us miss franzick

Simon

The exhibit must be meant as a morale booster for Israel supporters to remind them of why they're supporting the war.

CJ

Did Liz say Brat summer? Never been happier to support the podcast if so

Rbfen

Liz should talk with Frank Fleming about NJ transit. I think Brace can use his barstool connections to arrange a meeting

burkina fatso

i liked the bit liz did where she was complaining about trains, that was a bit right?

Anon Ibid

Houston has a holocaust museum too

hamburglar

Shut up and play yer guitar

Kelson

I always have to give awkward disclaimers when recommending the podcast due to Brace's characters, lol. Bur don't stop. "No, no, you see it's okay he is Jewish."

original gay pussy eatah

grant me the serenity to accept the trope-ish truths i can not change and the strength to change the trope-ish truths i can not accept

Natalie

10/10 ep

mexicanhalloween .

I thought for sure YC was going to put in an "In Bruges" drop when Brace kept saying "alcoves"

CE

Had to pause the pod for a sec to savor “if Fascist imagineers designed a Holocaust-themed Rainforest Cafe”

Luccia

I feel your pain, Liz I missed my summer trip to see a friend in Canada due to Thursday's insane NJ transit cancellations

John Mellow

Bicep, thank you!! Also thought it was Jamie xx lol

Louis Balmer

Trains work in Europe. They're great.

Aaron Snelling

Did anyone find that World Israel News about the warning?

The Friends of Eddie Coyle

Psytrance comes from goa because Israelis traditionally celebrated their military service by going to India and then living in enclaves of “white” only hostels which regularly abuse their Indian workers. Take ketamine and play psytrance. They ruined the beautiful party scene that Goa had.

lunchables

New Jersey transit expose please!!!! There are so many nerds and evil developers ruining the great garden state

Anon Ibid

Liz needs to read the zohar

Curtis Bathurst

Brace is so feisty and ruttish this episode.🤭

JV

all my housemates through my three years of undergrad were big psytrance guys so I'm very familiar with the subculture. it's essentially a particular kind of "trippy" trance exclusively for people who spend all their time doing shrooms or trying out different research chemicals. people who are heavy into crypto and body modification and stuff. think like burning man types, hippy musk fanboys, lot of white dreads. kind of like phish fans who migrated to electronic dance music. truly awful stuff and makes a lot of sense that it'd find a home in israel

Jesse

YOU GUYS HAVEN’T SEEN HITCH?!?

ResilientBastard

I’ve lived in the NY area my entire life, knew people who died and know people who lost parents, SOs. I’ve never visited and have no desire to. I had crashing-plane nightmares for years. Don’t need any reminders.

Alex Gullen

I guess it’s hard to be dignified and solemn when you’re covering up heinous war crimes.

Dyana Prewitt

Posted by PartisanGirl, not an account known for accuracy. My understanding is the footage was from the 9 th, but I can't confirm that either

Savage Dawn

This gives me similar vibes to the OKC memorial. I went there as a kid and it was another one of those, "let's experience this together" types of memorials.

Corey Vaughan

sounds like a hell house that evangelical churches put together to scare teens into salvation

Anna

NJ Transit trains the past 2 weeks has been HELL. I just take nj transit bus now to and from nj to nyc to work. Also I second the nj transit deep dive!! And I highly recommend using the clever commute app if you use nj transit

DJ B.

M night shyamalan

Kevin Smith

Jazzmint Tetra Hibi Plantagenet Dash

Please repost the woman with the Anne frank tattoo because I think she’s a horrific customer who also comes into my work and acts psychotic…did she also have the identification number of her grandmother-who was a holocaust survivor-tattooed on her other arm? Was her name Ruth?? Maybe 4”10 in platform shoes?? Walking 0.0009 miles an hour??

Regina

There was a kid whose real name was Scooter in my elementary school in Texas. He would stand on his desk, drop his pants and dance like once a week.

Glo-Lo

Kevin James not Kevin Smith!!

Boostiiyo

Y’all should actually do an MTA/NJ transit episode lol

I think he is doing really well. Also Luka! Who woulda thought?

Still waiting on that link to the substack mentioned
