Noah

This a Mormon podcast now

Peter Boardman

Damn you! Read that as farewell and panicked. Never leave me.

Ari Curtis

What is this, Three-tah? Four-tah?

ExtraJudicial Pod

Idk why but Farwell is like a lost Army buddy type guy I never met but imagine meeting

coochykatana

from the title, i thought this was going to be an episode about dan schneider and nickelodeon pedophilia since that amanda bynes vid has been going around twitter 😂 would be a dope episode

Hugh Jazz

When I’m listing off things I love, I also name Fish Burgers and chocolates right off the bat

John Lemieux

What's going on with my 'boys' and, in some cases, 'gals?’

Hugh Jazz

Are you Mario’s son

Rosa Wurm

The opposite of an apéritif is a digestif.

Great new piece about Martin Wong’s niche at the columbarium in the Paris Review

drewb

Beverage cloaca 🐦🥤🤢

Natalie

Anyone else at the show last night? It was so fun! 🤩

Mungo Franczak

Wait why do we hate aspartame cause of Rumsfeld??? I fucking love aspartame more than life itself, don’t do this to me, please

Mungo Franczak

No because I live in the Greater Bostonian Reich and nothing fun ever happens here…

Natalie

lol I feel you I flew from the midwest w a delta gift card and used it as an excuse to see friends there

Fern Fernald

Heard Farwell on 4RA so I’m looking forward to this

HonestEd

Calling the dispenser nozzle on the Coca-Cola machine a cloaca had me guffawing like a mongoloid

Nicole

Some soda background: I toured the west wing during obama presidency and there was a soda machine installed, but it was the classic style with multiple nozzles. Was told diet coke was obamas go to

JDF

Farwell GOATED

Jack

oh wow. oh wow. oh wow

Victoria

Is anyone else’s apple podcast feed not updating?

Jingle Jangler

Hes never left those of us who believe

TrueAnonPod

There’s an issue with Patreon’s public feed and Apple Podcasts right now that we’re waiting on them to resolve. If you’re using your subscriber RSS it should work normally though. Sorry for the inconvenience

A.M. Wreckloose

Donee think Trump named his kid after the Phantom of the Opera

Apéritif = before dinner and digestif = after dinner

Felix Brinker

Aperitif: booze before the food; digestif: booze after the food

Micheál Mac Gearailt

Fellow UWC student and classmate of Kim Jon Un's nephew here. He copied my maths homework once and didn't come to class much. Very happy to hear us referred to as "Illuminati school". If you search "UWC Glenn Campbell" on youtube, you can see we were the subject of a pretty funny harassment campaign by this guy, one of the popularisers of Area 51 conspiracies. He thought our schools are part of the alien plan and was arrested trying to get into the Norway one I think. It might be aliens, im not sure. It was pretty weird. There's an unusual amount of tunnels under most of the schools.

Quinten Monson

The Summum pyramid is at the end of the street i live on lmfao Matt Farwell if youre reading this come smoke weed with me at the summum pyramid

Zoe

Submitting Brace's toe talk transcript for my court reporting exercise assignment.

Talking Mice

Liz if curious about Utah grapes, look into vitis labrusca varieties which are native to North America. Grown all over the nation but high concentrations in UT, NV, MO, CA. Really talented producer called North American Press (funnily, given the name of the Pyramid operation) you ought to check out. My guess is the better wines being made UT are made by negociants and not by estate owners.

Pete

This guy is fucking wild

Patrick King

Saw the pyramid and knew the boy was back

Kimble

secret: all american pyramids are conceived in the denver airport

Glenn Youngkin Did Nine Eleven

Haven’t listened yet, so idk how much they’ve touched on this, but we need an episode on the Kirk assassination cuz I can’t tell if Candice is having a schizophrenic breakdown or if she’s actually onto something with these Egyptian military planes lmaoooo

Austent

FACT CHECK: East Temple got changed to Main Street in 1906☝️

Joshua Garcia

I can’t load anything in the Pateron app. This suddenly started happening for everything on the app. Am I the only one?

Alex Gullen

‘I don’t know, I only go on a Wednesday evening’ 😆

Sean Enright

That Columbarium is rad! It’s the first thing I ever visited in SF. For such a crazy little gem I remember it being just like in a neighborhood.

Austin Williams

Didn't like this slimy dude the last time either.

devils cherry

I saw Avatar 2 in the 4D theater I thought it was just normal IMAX 3d it was so horrible they made the chairs copy the dying whale movements

John Lemieux

Gender is in everything, especially donkeys

Julia Chaim

doesn't surprise me, this is the worst app ever made. every day I am shocked by how bad it is...

devils cherry

I got out of the chair and sat on the stairs it was so horrible and insane they also blew air to simulate the harpoon shots and blew water like the whale was splashing and dying

roz pea

matt farwell is kind of like real-life garland briggs

Joshua Garcia

I have to use the browser right now

elizabethonline

If I became friends with Steve Bannon I would take him to my city’s cigar lounge and have one of my lackeys bring in a rolling clothes rack with smoking jackets for him to choose from

elizabethonline

Haven’t really thought further than that so I’m not sure what we’d talk about

Rob

Sweetened the sound on this one, eh

elizabethonline

Holy shit amazing move to bring your girl to meet Steve B

Jacob

👀

Austin Williams

Like I get that performative remorse about helping to do Afghanistan is useless, but bro-ing out with Bannon for reasons isn't really moving the fucking trust needle for me.

Justine Riekena

My gf back in the 90s used to go to the Summa pyramid for services. She used to try to get me to go, but I was Wiccan then and thought they were way too weird.

Noah

Farwell my beloved king

pulled a muscle yearning

I know it's noided or whatever but I've always felt the Hastings crash is sus. That's not the type of road you speed that much on, even if you're fucked up. I'm also a car guy, I understand what CAN bus is and it is absolutely plausible that a hack could have been developed to remotely cause that car accelerate uncontrollably. With a small hardware device it's 100% doable, but I believe that model Mercedes was offered with cellular connection, so potentially it could just be an over the air attack. For a state actor with resources that seems entirely plausible. I'd love to learn more about that, and Farwell seems like he'd be the guy, though I understand it'd be tough given the personal connection.

Cornelius5558

Good God this guy seems like a scumbag. He is way too excited to be hanging out with this cast of repulsive monsters

dsm5 hinge embracist

Is the Summerhill pyramid too small potatoes? They do infuse wines with the pyramid power.

steven bassett

This mf sounds like fucking Sonja Morgan talking about how she used to go clubbing with John John Kennedy. WHO CARES!!!!

SippyCup

Scientology is just Space Mormonism. Check out the William Branham Grave Pyramid and "Gravesoaking".

HP

Comforted knowing I will ultimately get my fill of fishburger

Shiv

The Columbarium RULES. don’t feel bad Liz, I know it bc it’s near my middle school and me and my (east coast) mom finally went to investigate once.

regular bird

Need the Farwell Banon road trip memoir god damn

Shiv

it’s highly just in a neighborhood!

Yankee Amerikan Sky Pirate

Took a chick on a date at the Gilgal Gardens. She did not care for the Joseph Smith sphinx nor the anatomically correct stone heart. Sad.

Shiv

pre-tif, tipple before the aperitif

Marko Loko Lopez

It's a win either way, just buckle in and enjoy the ride

Kujo

fish burgers :/

Blank

What did they talk abt?

Twall

Simple green mentioned

harris

First time, long time - this dude is insufferable

Killer Dan

my great grandmother worked for the cia as a typist - she was deaf mute. hilarious.

Ken

4DX makes even the worst movie fun at the least

Nat

Ass or tits

Jess Davis

Absolutely gutted that Egyptian museum in San Jo is a fake?? What about the mummy?

Kendrickryan

Once a year i take shrooms at Hollywood Cemetery

Quinten Monson

Offer to smoke weed at the pyramid rescinded for misnaming my street its Genessee like the beer not Genovese. I will consider re-extending the offer if an apology is made

Ben

All the fish burgers I could eat: 1

CUSTARD MANIAC

This fuckin My Dinner With Andre ass tall tale motherfucker SHUT THE FUCK UP

Thomas E.

You can't convince me this wasn't Will Forte having a goof

Cal

This guy is a hoot. Perfect true anon guest

Panic Surfer

Jesus, this guy is so tedious. How do these people get their careers going? “Turns out I like Steve Bannon” Ok.

BeanCurd

I know a very stoned guy when I hear em

Dan Rincon

Like 40 minutes into this ep, no idea what this about

Inmybirkin

Almost as bad as the vocal fry youth correspondent

Peri

Rumsfeld was the CEO of G.D. Searle Co. (they discovered & produced aspartame) and during Reagan’s admin he helped appoint the head of FDA who then approved it for human consumption. It had been rejected by the FDA before because of studies that found it to be potentially dangerous. That’s basically the gist of it. The safety of aspartame is still questionable but personally I’ll be slurping that shit until I’m made into a mummy

Quinten Monson

Okay holy fuck i was waiting to see i Chris would get name dropped he's my sweet elderly neighbor who emails me anti trump articles and videos all the time lol fucking wild to hear this shit thats so present in my everyday life on this show what the fuck lol

Jacob King

Not commenting on Mormonism or Scientology specifically but if you’re recruiting members for your cult the most reliable source is people with prior experience in high control situations.

Shiv

call this guy Adam Friedland the way he’s dividing the listeners lol

Shiv

as soon as i posted this he said “my James Joyce class” which I’m afraid is tipping me into a con column

Dr. No No No

A new book about the pyramids of America was just released. “Pyramids - Special Economic Vortex Zones of North America” by Ian James for those interested. Might just be a photobook

Shiv

“I never read James Joyce before” well now I’m kinda back

GG Allin Dulles

Farwell is a goated guest and its a shame he has too much self respect to make the hunt for Tom Clancy into a full time podcast

Isaac

Summumabitch. The Rosicrucian Museum in SJ is cool and mostly just about ancient Egypt

Ty G.

This guy fucking rules

Fran

Grew up in the area and passed by it all the time—never visited it though!

Jonas Weir

I saw Godzilla x King Kong: The New Empire in 4DX and it was honestly the best movie going experience of my lifetime.

Quinn

“What is the destination but the start of a new journey.” God bless Brace!

Isaac

Christopher Guest holds a hereditary Lordship in Essex. On his great-grandfather: “Bertrand Russell described Haden-Guest as "a theosophist with a fiery temper and a considerable libido" and "very anti-Bolshevik". lol

Mark Owen

I went on my last trip to SF, it's pretty dope. I think the original Anchor Steam folks are there? Or other brewers.

Max Fitzer

The weed is too strong now.

Austin Bell

Long time first time. Gotta step in with a fact check. Brace says the myrrh in the nativity store is a great ad for sex because “obviously Jesus Christ was a product of such a union”. In fact, one of, if not the most, notable facet of Jesus christs conception is that it was not a product of a sexual union. I know as a Semitic person this nuance may be lost on him, but if he is interested in admittance to the kingdom of heaven as he so claims, I would advise he brush up on the facts.

Jeremy Traver

I found god at the Oregon hill overlook

August West

This guy likes the smell of his own farts a little too much

sir peepus

driving by the bass pro pyramid while listening 😎

Dee Haytch

I climbed that pyramid in Hollywood, got kinda scared at the top

Henry

I think that Nixon HST story comes from Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail

wren andersson

can he come back on and talk about the monroe institute? also uva dops (division of perceptual sciences i think) if he has any dirt on them?

Max

I am just annoyed that they keep pushing other patrons on me now so aggressively, this app doesn’t feel like it should considering I pay for everything on here.

Max

The wheel is actually in your stomach, and the CCP is harvesting organs because of it.

Max

The period in between leaving the North-Korean aristocracy and finding success as a grifter in the USA was probably kinda of rough.

Eben Lowenstein

Not weighing in on the content, but this guy sounds like Felix doing an impression…

NYCM&AHole

No wonder I feel so shitty

Mark Owen

Correct! Apparently Nixon was a well informed superfan, knew the colleges of every player etc.

Mark Owen

I hope pyramid power keeps coming back, it seems like it really lost out to crystals in the 1980s and has been undervalued since.

The_Architecht

The Donald Barr / Dalton connection is the moment the "meritocracy" thesis collapses into its antithesis: intelligence asset management. You don’t get a college dropout teaching physics to the elite unless the school itself is a logic gate for the security state. Barr writing a sci-fi novel about sex slavery and then hiring the man who would industrialize it isn't irony—it’s the blueprints being drafted. Epstein wasn't an anomaly in the system; he was a subroutine running exactly as designed.

The_Architecht

The shift from Dalton to Bear Stearns represents the synthesis of the "Op." The contradiction of an unqualified math teacher becoming a partner at a major firm is only resolvable if you view Epstein not as a labor agent, but as a currency himself. He didn't generate capital; he aggregated leverage. The "Prequel" proves he didn't become a monster later; the monster was the architecture that built him.

hamburglar

This guy has all the hallmarks of a classic liar but idk he seems to check out

Dan Rincon

“OMG, I met Pam Bondi’s nephew at a Virginia horse race…and he’s black.”

Dan Rincon

“I was with a communist from Calcutta, and she was like, ‘Do I like Steve Bannon.’”

Vincent

Crazy that Brace is doubting goyish devotion over circumcision when most of us are circumcised for no reason.

BC

Matt Jolo

Is this because the new season of secret lives of Mormon wives came out? Or because Whitney got voted off of Dancing with the Stars?

Jared

I had no idea I had a quirky raw mummy in my city until today

Kyle Brown

What is the bookstore Brace mentions at 1:03? KL books?

Shane

I live pretty close to the Rosecrutian museum in SJ, highly recommend it, also worth just walking around the grounds, they have a bunch of weird statues and a walking path around the whole building with a pretty nice garden. Smells crazy inside.

Jared

Can a divorced guy in 2025 in salt lake still meet ladies via summum??

Thecoquettebaker

This guest guy is insufferable to listen to I cannot

Shiv

My aunt used to live on the peninsula and she took me! and then my bestie and i took her niece when we were aunts lol

Shiv

as someone born in 🇺🇸 that struck me as well lol

Sudden Beth

I love a podcast with audible vape hits

Madeline

“Well John John’s dead, so that’s difficult”

Shiv

I have met multiple former ex-evangelicals or exmos who were also ex military

Shiv

I refuse to believe

Shiv

ooh thats an SF fun fact if true. I’ll investigate 🕵️‍♂️

Steve S.

Kinda disappointed that Yumg Chomsky didn't slip a Pharoah Sanders - Summum Bukmum Umyum snippet into this episode. (awesome album/song)

Oliver Crane

I went there with my ex, she loved it but was extremely unstable.

Grace

White person from New Hampshire tuning in!

Syd

Disappointing yall didnt aknowledged frodo’s mithril armor- yall shouldnt generalize about hobbits like that

Will Romano

Matt come hang out more in the wood river valley so we can chat about corky Ra!

SippyCup

If you're into weird shit that's a great avenue to go down. There's also some Rosicrucian pyramids outside of Philly - they're damn near as big as the one in Hollywood cemetery in my recollection.

Franklin

“I met pam bondis nephew, and he’s black”

Rxk Lenderman

Thinking this guy is insufferable but brace is tolerable is a strange position

Jake

They’re talking about my home state that’s cool

georgies

this dude is a icon pls have him on again

Michael

The Rosicrucian museum has recently installed (in their Alchemy exhibit) an uncanny-valley humanoid robot dressed as Thoth and you can talk to it because it’s plugged into an LLM. Nobody’s doing it like them

Tvvvv

They are twinning.

Tvvvv

Manic pixie dream dudes

James Moore

The incredible timing of all the Bannon/Epstein correspondence and this guy planning to do the Green Book with Steve is giving me a good lil giggle.

ben s

Brace needs his own jiminy glick style interview show

Tvvvv

Could you smell Kong

Rxk Lenderman

I don’t know what the most accessible TrueAnon episode is, but this might be the least accessible

carts

This episode rocks and it should happen once a month.

Tvvvv

Right wing guys can be homies when they aren’t in power. Just the right can’t be allowed to have power then everybody’s be cool.

Excelsis Caeli

Those are just the laws of the kybalion

Hunter Saint Hunter

Matt Farwell let's get married in the pyramid together your bizzare little life perplexes yet amuses me. I promise i'm not a mossad operative.

Joshua Garcia

Consume more already I deleted the app, reinstalled and now it works

Quinn

It’s about the notes you don’t play.

NitroDickclapp III

Hahaha I've read outlaw platoon. It's is such dick sucking horseshit. Sean Parnell is unbearable, fucking idiot.

Ben

Lots of government agencies have blind people selling snacks in the building. The urge to shoplift is overwhelming.

Gabby S

just calling balls and strikes on the bannon beat this week

Kamran Husain

i’m just gonna keep drunk driving between vermont and new hampshire until i am able to figure out if matt said to leave or stay here

ERIC

As a working man who uses tools, simple green is delicious, but fries your skin over time.

Eddie Strange

Yeah I was like “this is just alchemy and hermeticism”, a lot of it seems silly but a lot of it is solid stuff as far as pathways to personal spiritual journeys

Normica

I’m trying to imagine what it would look like if Mary drank pyramid wine, literally had sex with God, and they made Jesus.

ERIC

Combat vets either are living lie legends or a Kurt Vonnegut protagonists.

Your Mum

This is Benghazi come home

Marcus

Who's got the link for this mur advertisement?

jay alan

A great ep right here folks.

Shane

Liz needs a raise

NitroDickclapp III

As a 6'3" funny looking dude from small town New Zealand trust me when I say that being tall and appearing fishless doesn't change shit. Small town online dating is only for the goodlooking, I have a theory that makes me sound like an incel but IS true

Scam Apple

I don't like this guy EDIT- ok I'm turning around on him a little but still seems weird. It's probably jealousy.

Swaggypeepaw

/\___/\ (( \`@_@'/ )) {_:Y:.}{_}^{_}

Lcfitz

Agreed never heard a 40 year old talk like this lol v irritating

Lcfitz

This guy was def a weird Mormon state department kid I guarantee it totally insufferable lol

Penelope Higgins

To add further intrigue, Summum is also the name of a francophone soft-core gentleman’s magazine in Quebec. No connection but it does give great insight into the mind of the horny yet conservative quebecois bloke

K8

Brace Belden in GQ Magazine: The Jon Stewart of masturbating into a coffin?

dilla

during one of the lowest moments of my life, i ended up in the hollywood cemetary next to the huge confederate pyramid while my friends argued about what direction was the way out. in that moment i vowed i would never go back to virginia voluntarily ever again. fuck that state

Horseloverfat

Aperitif is before and digestif is after!! Aper is from a Latin root that means “to open” (aperture, April — opening of flowers). I’m not reading 200 some comments to see if anybody else has said this; I just want to help brace get along well in France as I know he loves so many aspects of French culture (gilf First Lady, 10 year olds who smoke)

Martin Kasey

The nicest guy who went to my hischool had a missle

hamburglar

Is Liz even in this episode

D Gordon

Fuggit every post is just 1.mpeg now

TM

Cozy as hell

J.walk

Shout out Harvey Milk Boulevard

RJ

Best guest. Greatest guest.

MirrorOooMirror

Guy comes off like a hipster talking about records or books, but instead be name dropping deep staters and engages in one ups man ship with his imperial death machine “knowledge”. His whole, millions dead in the middle east after 9/11 to whatever year, vs whats happened to Palestinians over last few years, feels like a form of “I’ve listened to so and so band before they were cool”.

Charles Frum

Cheney x Angleton connect nobody ever talks about.

JDF

the Doc Sportello of bipartisan podcast guests

The Pissler

Noooooo not again please

Logan Ausherman

This guy is one of the most insufferable, blowhard, liar embellishers I've ever heard speak.

Zzz

Bruh 💯 cocky and annoying

Betty Kelly

Fear and loathing on the campaign trail!!!

Sneb

Jesus Christ this man cannot finish a single sentence without getting distracted and going off on a tangent

Annie

Nah he’s right about James Joyce

Major Pisano

Go there, then back and then again and again Vermonthampshire spirals into ephemeral void of beauty and eternal darkness inside a beautiful day.

Charlie

Feels like a reward though. This is the red meat

Major Pisano

You’re definitely not true anon snob grade that’s for sure. This is snob inside baseball cool kid’s episode. That’s just the facts. Can’t say but it’s INTELLect requirement’s are above average.

Major Pisano

Go to the garden. There’s a pyramid. It’s a crystal pyramid for mind fucking initiates. Initiates into the indoctrination process of reduction and transformation of society and images of huMANity.

Wrought

This guy rules

Tranche Devereaux

3:05 Santana mentioned but Liz didn’t sing “man it’s a hot one… like 7 inches from the midday sun” 😞

Antipaganda

This guy has magic powers. I am fascinated by every word.

CJ

Les Mis insert made me cry thanks YC

Major Pisano

“…it’s like going to the Met but it’s Brace’s funeral!..”

CJ

Liz knew without even knowing she knew 🙌

CJ

You jelly?

CJ

Maybe a name change could help?

Charles Frum

Bannon literally broing out and doing deals with Epstein until the day before he was arrested again.

Charles Frum

Totally: “I killed Arabs before it was cool…”

Zach

The Temple District? Down on Third?

Maxim

A rennesance fair for cops

Henry Wise

Yeah, you only need to meet one of these guys (they're an archetype) a single time and you've had your fill for a lifetime. I lived with one for two fucking years. At least it's kinda funny the first time you overhear him at a party telling a story that you were present for, confirming what you knew all along.

The Master

I demand an answer from Brace regarding not wanting to “get into” not watching the sopranos

Brian Ward

Podcasting from a pyramid like killing joke recording pandemonium would be great

J98

Case and point

Salex

Are they traditionalists when it comes to the mummy making? Like, do they drag the brain out through the nasal cavity and stuff? Asking for a friend

Salex

I love all of this

Salex

I so appreciate that summary, and me too, love that shit

Salex

You just gotta lean in and trust that we'll get to the point eventually

aficionado

We need a bimonthly farwell checkin

Emily

Agreed I had a hard time listening to him

Salex

He's a journalist with a military background who writes about the world of intelligence. It's kinda his job to talk to a heap of people, make connections and tell stories. It is what it is

cellardoor

I love Matt as a guest. He really makes Liz & Brace act like podcasters.

Salex

Unfortunately very true, and not just because cult survivors have been conditioned / are used to coercive behaviour. When you leave a cult, you might have nothing, no money, housing, education etc. and your social supports are cut off, so you're reliant on others and that vulnerability is so easily exploited 😔

Emily

I can’t prove it but I think Farwell is the one in the comments writing “this dude fuckin rocks” over and over again

Julie D

This is like a one-man Tip Line

Annie

Forest Gump but conspiracy theories

Instantdumbass

the first person who was mummified there was Kris Kattan?

Annie

That’s when he won me over

Elliot robinson

this guy kinda sucks, these episodes are lazy sorry

Homalek

Love when people grab my rod of truth

landon

this dude just be saying shit

Here, Try This

Yeah Vermont and New Hampshire we aren’t letting you slide on not historically having enough slavery, major urban centers heavy with industry, desirable climate, or proximity to a border with a country inhabited by brown people to have a robust minority population. Fuckers.

Gerp

Bro got invited just to speak on some hibbly

Joelio

The journey is the destination my friend or is it you know?

christian

legendary guest always

A. Karl

Incredible album. Had no idea it was recorded in a pyramid until now. Respect

A. Karl

Matt rules. 801 represent

Brian Ward

Some of it yes, they bribed some Egyptian civil servants to get them into one of the pyramids of giza

A. Karl

Hell yeah, Wikipedia says it was the vocals for the first three songs.

Doug Cartel

The army would kill every living person in a Comanche camp then cut women's pussies off and hang them off their rifles, so yeah the US Army is overdue for a severe humbling Maybe Venezuela can deliver it? I heard they got 2000 Geran-2s but idk if it's true

MATT TRIANO

Five thousand years ago some asshole made a pact with a psychotic alien overlord that couldn't stand the sight of human hair, hates menstruation AND abhors loose skin on dicks! And someone confused THE I AM AT THE HEART OF ALL THINGS THE ALMIGHTY with that weirdo Yahweh because I guess they thought that anything that comes from the sky all comes from the same place? Ancient stuff though, I almost get it... THEN the midcentury American medical community decided, hey, that stuff is dumb *except* the No Dickskin policy which made a lot of sense to them. And they did/do circumsize most American boys without asking.

Dustin Elrod

Are you not into yourself? Who cares man, it's a podcast. Have fun with it or don't listen.

Doug Cartel

I want someone to make a bronze statue of Charlie Kirk sitting across from an empty chair and Clint Eastwood is standing next to the empty chair yelling at it

MirrorOooMirror

Funny thing is, “North America” was a country of brown people. Including Vermont and New Hampshire. I wonder where they all went?

Inmybirkin

Brace is funny and doesn’t come off like he jacks off in the mirror every morning.

Jon W

An excellent episode to bank and just release during a slow month. But it's been a mile a minute since January

Your Mum

I am shoes off airplane and movie theater

Abiham

My friends lived on the Sum Mum pyramid block, like 5 years ago. They said it was a weird block, between the open street drug dealing and the pyramid cult. Interesting vibes. The pyramid is a lot smaller than you’d think.

Johan Gambolputty

“The rest of Utah is Kandahar and SLC is Kabul”

Dylan

I saw Twisters in 4DX and here’s the thing: NOT WET ENOUGH!! A few puffs of air, a chair rumble, and some measly squirts of water. Not nearly as exciting as I was looking for.

mimi

the best kind of episodes

TrueAnonPod

I think I have whatever the opposite of audience capture is now

D Money

Hes goated

MirrorOooMirror

My point is your defensive tone to the indefensible historical reality that’s created the current whiteness of your precious honky states is sorta funny.

Joey

this guys sounds just like steve banon

Woke Batou

GWOT gives you meth brain

Woke Batou

GWOT gives you liar voice

Is this guy a real person?

Bro 6 3 is the height where looks don’t matter anymore. If you’re not getting chicks it’s your personality dude

frag queen

fuck the haters Matt Farwell is king

jay alan

lol I genuinely liked this ep, no sarcasm!

suj 🐥

live show at SLC please!! You can also pay your old pen pal Nicholas Rossi a visit

TBoneVanToon

This dude always strikes me as both a closet chud and a liar.

Parker Fritts

Green-wood cemetery in Brooklyn has a ton of obelisks and a few pyramids, one of which houses Henry Bergh, founder of the ASPCA. I listen to many trueanon episodes during my walks there, including now. Victorian obsession that resulted in what’s referred to as Egyptomania

Pelican Grief

You guys are going to have to learn that many genuinely interesting people are also very annoying. Good ep!

SF

You are going to have to learn that having met a few famous people doesn't make someone interesting.

SF

Nah Elliot's right. Lazy episode and guest is not nearly as interesting as he (and the hosts) think he is.

Pelican Grief

In many, even most, cases you are absolutely correct.

Alec

Sorry but it is Cringe to be “buddies with Steve Bannon”. And I do like this guy generally, he’s fun to listen to.

mimi

wait the guy in the intro was kinda on to something though....

Pug_luvr

Brace isnt crazy. I take my shoes off at the theater. Half the time it's empty anyway, so what's the harm?

Austin Mort

My understanding is that if you get a sent on a mission somewhere in Utah it’s because you are a fuckup or poor. Getting sent abroad is considered more prestigious and wealthy Mormons can get a more exotic assignment for tithing a little extra.

Adam Jung

This guy sounds like if Felix biederman was stung on the nose by a bee

Adam Jung

Schizophrenia is a job now?! Sick!

this whole episode feels like “worst/best of the tip line” 😬

Wilian Moreira

Why is this guy so funny lmao I haven't laughed out loud at a guest like this, can't believe the comment section is mad he's friendly with Steve Bannon

Long time first time chiming in firmly on the "This guy is so fucking funny" side of things "Man if i had a mortar here i could kill like... fifty cops"

Donnacha O'Brien

Rosicrucians were essentially 30 Years War fan fiction. Fantasies of a secret group of scholars who would save the world. Rosicrucianism grew out of this fiction later.

Danny

Great ep

Kendrickryan

Nice. the overlook is where I head to on the comedown once the cemetery closes and kicks me out

Percy Plump

This guest is pronouncing names I thought I knew in ways I could never have imagined

Alex Toth

are we sure this isn’t felix biederman

Hugo

Brace, Liz and YC: if you haven't seen this app for exploring the epstein emails, you gotta check it out: https://jmail.world/ Its basically a virtual gmail account for all of the emails, makes searching and parsing very efficient

Michael S. Judge

Corky Ra. I might kill myself because I'm not Corky Ra. I would be so much happier meeting Summum Individuals and getting a degree in Pyramid Studies

Michael S. Judge

There's a lot of implicit Rosicrucian stuff around Stephen's "literary circle" in ULYSSES, partly because it was cool at the time, like joining some drinking circle or issuing a "manifesto," and partly because there were/are some people who REALLY believe that Oscar Wilde's rise & fall (and Oscar Wilde was a god to the Buck Mulligans of the world, not least for being Irish but sufficiently not-Irish for Anglo celebrity) were entirely about the Brotherhood of the Rosy Cross – he got famous & successful using their secrets, and then he got GOT because he was revealing them via, scientifically speaking, very gay photo portraits. Which is not true, probably?, but it was taken seriously for a while

Michael S. Judge

Joyce makes fun of one of my ancestors in that part, ch. 9, "Scylla and Charybdis," when Arthur "AE" Russell is addressing Stephen and his friends with some mystagogy at the library, he's thinking about Theosophy and Annie Besant and shit, and he thinks "Judge, the noblest Roman," in reference to my however-many-greats-uncle William Quan Judge. Old Uncle Quan declared himself the first "white Hindoo" and then basically tried to steal Theosophy and market it in the USA after H.P. Blavatsky died, and it was uncertain who controlled the "church." Hence "the noblest Roman," which is what Julius Caesar calls Brutus in JULIUS CAESAR, shortly before Brutus kills him

ChlamydiaPuppy2

holy crap Neil Martinson mentioned— (the garage rock rosicrucian) lmao “huzzah!”

Morgan

I dont believe this is true. Maybe to some extent but in my personal life i have known tons of mormons and where they were sent had no relationship to their economic status or how good they were

Kelly Gilbert

Idk what about the mormons from other countries?

Wilian Moreira

Yahweh was the name of the hot buff neighbour, Joseph was cucked and Jesus was a bastard

Gummy

Matt what’s your favorite MRE

Iain

Hard to follow and lowkey insufferable yet still captivating in a weird fugue-state way as was the last episode with Farwell. 15 y/o me who was obsessed with Thompson went nuts hearing him cite the famous football limo conversation with Nixon

saaffie

I really wish you let him talk more about uvu....because he mentioned talking to actual young people there ans would have been good to learn more from that. Pity.

S

You can do that for free

crisis thespian

yeah right. i know felix when i hear him. you're not fooling anyone. or maybe you are. but not me. not me.

christian

shut your ass up

hamburglar

You should get Matt on an episode and just let shit get nutty

hamburglar

Way too social to be Felix. Barely any time spent on military hardware minutiae

hamburglar

They probably cut this episode down from like 4 hours of tangential stories where they all forgot the original topic

Philippe Duhart

An apéritif is before dinner, digestif is after. Liz not knowing that seems a bit odd.

hamburglar

And then we tried to name a helicopter after the tribe! Shameless

hamburglar

I’ve been following Matt for like 5 years and I swear he’s on like a permanent manic episode

Natalie L

Farwell is insufferable, sorry. Seems to think he invented investigative journalism, so fucking proud of himself about the random assholes he’s met and random places he’s been, and endless personal anecdotes that he clearly thinks make him come off as so funny and cool and edgy.

ananymous

If i learned anything from this ep it’s that this guy is very divorced

TKOZ

This is one of the best episodes I have ever heard and anyone who disagrees doesn’t see the vision

DarylBarenziah

I’m one minute in. Thinking about vibrations and brace needs to land the Usha thing. Like cucking jd Vance for his fake as messianic vision of Erikakirk MAgluglugluGA wedding. Slide into her dms brother. Low key stalk her for that first month. Not even stalk just like figure out how to get that first meeting. Mao Zedong style I n v e s t I g a t e. Dude you are witty, you are strong, you fought in a foreign war. You have a Team. You are a small business owner. You are laymen’s marxist academic smart in the way that is probably the best form of smart for this world. And you are charming. And most of all usha belongs to you because you are the male podcaster like Vance but you would love her. And this Tovarisch. Is why at the very least you should slide into her DMs for an interview. Find her grocery store drop your phone number and flag her on it. Just little things to get the woman of your dreams. Musks mom is a meme, Usha is forever.

DarylBarenziah

Her ring is off the hand. She needs a rebound that could last a life time.

BeanCurd

It's very funny to be a name dropper when the names are like "Pam Bondi's nephew," "Pete Hegseth's press secretary," and "my conservative friend who writes for The Atlantic"

DarylBarenziah

You can usually do a red and white out of the same grapes if I’m not mistaken

sphericalgangster

I tried to get some of the Summum Nectars when they first obtained their license..but now you gotta finish this Word doc homework after reading Sealed Except to the Open mind. Too long lol. Been visiting the pyramid for years, great date night. Have a pic of me next to Corky’s mummy, RIP. Ralphael Plescia is another eccentric Utahn. He had an incredible place called the Christian School, and his paintings and sculptures were outrageous. Turned the whole basement into Hell, with drowning soul statues and rivers. I think there’s a doc about him. Sorry just pumped about this ep. Xxx

libra man

What a swell guy. I feel like he’s having a good 21st century. Also, in case this helps connect any dots Summum is the name of a sour dough bakery in Oviedo, Spain.

libra man

Yeah, hammock camping on the family farm

libra man

I thought he was really cool.

libra man

Speaking Oviedo there’s a prominently placed bronze statue of Woody Allen there.

libra man

So, you know, second point on the chart.

Natalie L

The thing is it’d be fine to be a name dropper/anecdote teller if it led to any information more important/interesting than “there’s a coke freestyle machine in the west wing” and “i totally trolled an fbi dude with my epic military knowledge”

Wendi Byther

Ok, first of all, the whole mummification cult in Utah is FASCINATING to me as an ex-Mormon. I shared that website with like half a dozen people like “LOOK AT THIS SHIT” lol But also the big toe in the popcorn bucket made me choke and spit period blood, thanks Brace

Calm down frenchie

Philippe Duhart

Technically Basque, but we take that stuff seriously too. We just don’t have fancy words for them.

Faroose

Interesting conversation but this guy is mad spook-y

Nick

“If I hadn’t been married at the time” [later on] “divorced” yeah

Mood Slut

That plus (without looking him up) sounds like he has the same moustache every Guy has atm and like he’d try to impress me hard enough at a hotel bar that he could cheat on his wife with me Only half an hour in and I feel like I’ve been listening for 12 days

RickinSF

Columbarium is in the Richmond District.

Hani

PLAN 10 FROM OUTER SPACE … movie mindset 👁️

Chris Ryan

I’ve heard Matt be more interesting than this, but yeah basically this is me on coke 10 years ago yapping for no reason about some shit nobody cares about. He really said Ose-Rice-Iss and that’s the kind of faux pas you cannot ever come back from. I feel like YC left that one in just because he wanted to ruin this man’s credibility forever. Yeesh

Chris Ryan

Sometimes. This was a miss

Rhys Hayes

Apparently Butterworth's is owned by Alex Butterworth, a bug-eyed Australian lawyer with Uber who once ran for Liberal Party pre-selection in W.A, and Raheem Kassam, former editor-in-chief of Breitbart UK. So maybe have some principles and give the fucking lamb tartare a miss

This is like a tip line episode but its just one guy airing out everyone he can think of lol

HK

Obsessed with this guy. Where's his podcast?

Michael S. Judge

I come back here because I've always thought that anecdote was weird enough in itself, so I never really considered the alternate history ... but there's a real, plausible world in which Uncle Quan the White Hindoo pips Joseph Smith at the post, and Theosophy absorbs the people and places that would've gone Mormon, and the shitty Sacramento white-trash part of my family are The Pharaohs of Utah. And, even assuming they're different individual people, literally any possible member of that family would've gone in to business with Vegas at the FIRST chance, as many Mafias, Mafie?, as possible, so there's a pretty proximate dimension where my grandfather was carrying Howard Hughes between 10 identical rooms in 10 identical buildings, feeding him banana-nut ice cream when he got too racist

Michael S. Judge

that's almost happened so many times, and every time I'm about to line it up, I suddenly learn I have to quit junk, or my then-girlfriend disappears for a month (not disappears from ME, but like face-of-the-Earth disappears), or I get put on a medication that makes me piss blood, etc.

As an Irish listener I love "I've never read James Joyce before ... he's pretty good!" like he's discovered some niche new writer 😄

Meh nah this guy just sucks

ersatzennui w/ george quartz

From what I recall, Thompson was asked to ride up the east coast from DC with Nixon, with the caveat being they could only discuss football and not politics. When they reached the jet, Thompson was grabbed by secret service because he was smoking a cigarette next to the fuel tank.

ah yes, I think that's right, my mistake!

Ok but how many Irish ppl have actually read Joyce, realistically speaking

Probably not a lot but that's besides the point.

Wasn't Jesus Christ sort of famously not conceived from sex?

The Pissler

It’s really more about where you live and if you have any potential health complications. If you live outside Utah, in the US, and have potential health problems, decent chance you’re going to Utah. Also the whole thing about going stateside or abroad is genuinely very random otherwise.

The Pissler

Utah deserves a live show after all this extractive podcasting!!

JetsPizzaBox

Tranche Devereaux

This is so funny… I felt this way about Adam Friedland. And was roundly roasted in the comments for saying so - not just on this pod but on a pod called StraightioLab as well. Adam’s fans will defend him and decimate critics. Now I’m here on TrueAnon listening to this dude who is tangential and cocky… and I love him! I can’t get enough of this guest. Could there be some gene analogous to what makes some people taste soap when they eat cilantro? Truly love it or hate it

Charlie Gonzo

You are correct, old sport. Hunter S. Thompson spoke with Richard Nixon in a yellow sedan during the 1968 presidential campaign (if true, of course).

Yeah…

I'm barely literate. You'll need to put into a rap video.

This guy is the reason I didn't immediately discount Planter. In fairness to this guy, he seems cooler so he doesn't need to get into politics.

Timothy

This guy is like a walking tip line.

Isaac

Who’s the heathen now?!

Isaac

I feel like I always fall into the “this guy rocks” camp, and idk if that makes me more fun, or more prone to being taken in by charisma.

Isaac

He reminds me of a drifter friend that always had stories that were so fucking good I just assumed most of them were bullshit, but they were fun to listen to so I didn’t care. Then after years of knowing him we went on this cross country road trip where we stopped in all these places where he knew people and every single time these people who were there to witness it corroborated his stories basically word for word, and in some cases even had picture evidence. I miss him a lot, he’s in the feds for the next 5 years or so :(

Isaac

He seems more like a substack guy.

Isaac

It was full of vodka

Isaac

I guess if this was how he talked the first time I met him I would be put off by all the name dropping, but that’s kinda the whole point of having him on the show no?

Isaac

No ethical consumption under capitalism baby. I say that, but I’ll admit there are companies that I won’t support with my money because they/their owners are too evil. The thing is, everyone has that list and it’s very subjective and personal to them because if we were morally consistent with our consumption leftists wouldn’t be able to buy almost anything.

Isaac

This man has you so bothered you’re making up YC editing fanfic

Chris Ryan

Was like the last joke of the episode, could have left it out if he didn’t want the guy to self own. Hi Isaac, how are you today? Got a bee in your bonnet?

Isaac

And funny

Recommend Chapel of the Chimes in Oakland! A Julia Morgan designed columbarium that feels labyrinthine, endless nooks and crannies to discover, pools, fountains, enormous skylights. A real oakland treasure. And they have a freaky ambient music fest every year.

Does the Mr. Farewell have any pyramid info on the ( serpent mound/hundreds of pyramids in area ‘Indian Burial Ground’) in the Ohio River valley/Scioto River area? My Appalachian family in eastern Kentucky West Virginia claim that all the families who settled there on those grounds ( our family lol) have been cursed because it was a forbidden place/sacred space and even the indigenous folks wouldn’t live there, they would practice hunting/gathering there but would leave offerings and I guess they ~allegedly, according to my Auntie Lolly who used to party with one of the last indigenous families who still lived in the area and has been divorced thrice to two different brothers in that family~ warned the white folks who settled the lands there that if they built homes there that the darkness that lives there would devour their women & children? I mean anecdotally , my mom ( 1 of 13 kids) was the first one in her family to move away from that area and my brother and I are the only living cousins left in our generation who don’t have a chronic illness or addiction? My Auntie Lolly still lives in the area and has one lung left, her daughter recently had an entire house fall down on her (still alive), and my cousin Cooter, has been bitten by copperhead snakes more than 6 times in his life? PERHAPS, HMMMM? Write this American pyramid book please. I need to know what’s up.

Jlev

APERITIF - from the Latin word “aperire” which means to open… I learned this from an Italian DJ I dated in the 90’s who taught me to drink APEROL SPRITZ’ or Prosecco prior to eating dinner and for post dinner/to close our Digestif would be brandy or port both of which I learned to loathe bc it would make me barf. This lead me to believe all Italians have ED bc barfing this much after a huge meal felt positively Roman.

Jlev

Yes, as a 6ft tall woman I want him to know he’s allowed to come back on the show

Jlev

My brother is a gulf war vet currently living on the back half of my mom’s property. Often sleeps in a hammock. Divorced twice. Built a sick wood burning sauna from facebook marketplace finds? I’m saying our country abandons its soldiers.

Jlev

As a journal exercise, I often explore the folks whose lives or way of speaking trigger a rage episode within me. I usually find it’s some kind of behavior I often am ashamed of for whatever reason? Helps me to judge myself less.

Jlev

TBH he just sounds like my older brother and his Gulf War buddies? The carnal urge to constantly compare masculinity, ridicule femininity, and then ultimately end up in a place of nihilism ( for my brother it is literally camping out in his overlander vehicle -including hammock sleeping-on the back half of my moms property and scrolling tinder after his 2nd divorce) - it’s very libertarian I guess but also ~no homo~ and lots of chapter 11 bankruptcy? Maybe Dude just loves to gab as a way to process complex PTSD? Ultimately, he’s not harming anyone except himself and it’s good to have an inside track to learning/confirming useless information like the coke fountain in the White House- like, that just sounds exactly how our tax dollars are being spent, ya know?
