Brace are you confusing Rudd in the woods with Holt disappearing at sea?

Hugh Jazz

An entire generation of Frenchmen lost just to push the tranche forward or backward a few feet at a time. Disgusting

Hugh Jazz

Was there a Farwell-induced schism?

Someone get Brace to a Finnish sauna

Muni D1

Hey guys, remember when you interviewed Julie Brown right after Gislaine’s trial and she downplayed Epstein’s intelligence activities? What do you thing about that now?

Mungo Franczak

Andrew should marry the King of Spain and wage war against the British throne to give the Bourbon dynasty one more shot at England

Mersham

Another classic episode !

Casey O'Brine

This is the funniest single episode of anything

PineBat Jo

Today i learned my hero Brace Belden has a racial bias against me as a Finnish descendant 😭

Pelican Grief

He was doxxed by the failing ny times

200 OK

Producer Formerly Known as ...

Woke Batou

Liz's point about how obsessed Americans are with college lines up, I think, with her other point about how provincial America is: we're a backward country and education automatically instills a superiority complex.

Casey

I've always interpreted not correcting your typos or misspellings in texts or emails as a sign of disrespect for the person who you're texting with. Maybe they were doing it as some kind of power play signifier.

EaZy E

The correct guys major is, Sports Management. Lmao.

Kiitos tiesin että olette panturanismin kannattajia 😍 you are always welcome to visit 🇫🇮🇹🇷

Louis

I don’t even understand how the fuck my trenche talk

Mark Owen

Did Terje Rypdal ever collaborate with Serge Gainsbourg?

Mark Owen

the Lithuanians had a neopagan empire over most of Poland just a few centuries back, Liz must have a racial memory of that instilled by the Church

Blank

YC “It wouldn’t be your first steppe” 🔥

Torgeir Tannenwald

Norwegians dont live in the mountains, we live in the fjords, but we have to see each other coming across the mountains. That is why we need to be tall. Completely different situation from Nepal.

fioe06 t

A well deserved "pause" feels so good to deliver

Seth

You have to do an Arizona series. So much trueanon style shit happens there. Crossover ep with ordinary unhappiness about psychoanalyst wilhelm reich’s cloudbuster, arrested in Tucson after violating an FDA injunction

Michael

I’m not a TrueAnon oldhead or anything, but I think this is first time I’ve hear Brace actually allude to Osees when talking about Rincon. I want to hear his direct take on the band

The wazzzzaaapp bud light dude

Arizona State grad and grad of a fancy grad school: the alumni/university pride is baffling as shit. Liz is right, it’s not exclusive to Ivy League school. Texas A&M grads all seem to wear their class ring at all times. On a completely unrelated note, I’m the worst professional “networker” imaginable.

Shiv

YC’s sad moan at the utterance of “Steven Goldberg” made me laugh a laugh I’ve never laughed before

Alexander

Sami are more closely related to Siberian people than the Scandinavians, it's a stretch to consider them Northern European

Shiv

we will not be calling you Jimmy Saville don’t worry

Mark Owen

My brother went to Mongolia, he said people were always up for going on a long drive to somewhere else in the country. Nomadology.

Alexander

Vibes based analysis of Scandinavians

Robert Sayre

Oh sure, it's just that they live in Northern Europe in the Arctic.

Bill Clinton

As a Finn, it always warms my soul to be properly identified as a PoC. Brace, you should visit me in Finland sometime and I will give you a sauna experience that will make you feel like you really did relapse. Then we could go hunting with my grandfather and you could hear some race science as eclectic as your own.

Alec

I don’t need to say nothing I let that tranche talk

Ben

YC being the executive for TrueAnon explains how he’s able to afford menswear from Drake’s.

hamburglar

See, this is exactly what Brace was talking about

hamburglar

What about Todd Terje

Chloe

Need a true anon x heavyweight crossover ep to find Dragomir

Ben Burke

Matthew McConnaughey taught a class at UT Austin - similar deal where the TA handled most of the lectures then he sort of comes in at the end

Luke

Some definitions of Northern Europe include Ireland (and the UK) but having lived in Germany, they’re actually spiritually Northern European, not us! Netherlands too.

kain

FUCK YOU DRAGOMIR

Maugamanuma

Kurz, Epstein, Marsalek…..

Luke

We’re spiritually southern European due to religion and disposition.

Manic Exposure

Brace has gotta have his bizarre ass moment in finland like conan obrien did. Onks mikä suomalainen julkkis bracen näköinen?

elizabethonline

Really been struggling for some months in my walk with the Lord and would appreciate a Bible-based episode. -Thanks, Elizabeth

elizabethonline

This is due to my undiagnosed homosexuality

Inga Gilbert

As an Icelander who has listened since episode 1 it breaks my heart to have to leave you behind

Pug_luvr

Talking over the gong!? Unforgiveable. Please re-record the intro and let the gong ring out, in full, in silence.

People obsessed with college are nuts. Those mfs are robbing students blind for tuition and everything else, just to have AI shoved down their throat

Lord Abraxas

Harold Holt is a Prime Minister that went missing, but that was in the 60s and he was lost at sea, is this a new Mandela effect?

We Norwegians are everywhere you have made a serious mistake Mr Belden

Beth Hartwig

Please rename your podcast Trancheanon and be all Tranche all the time because I simply cannot get enough.

Quinn

In the sauna got my AirPods in and my tranche out

Todd

Please come to Arizona. We have pyramids

Ben Bole

less executives because of AI? colleges are camps? liz was hitting max conservative boomer mode this ep

nick b

Ulaanbaatar traffic is no joke and it *will* kill you, gotta stay in the countryside

Vincent

I feel like the college fixation is not only because it is the freest time in a petty boug/lower boug person's life (evoking a desire to go back for both people who did and did not go) but it's also determinative of a person's future outcomes in a way that most people there aren't mature enough to understand and/or handle. So it becomes a fixation of nostalgia and regret, the prime time in which you could "do it all differently". Not speaking from experience or anything.

Abbi S

Just saw you in the w?w comments yesterday bestie

wailing ken jennings

i sent more than a few tasteful shots, many of which left no doubt whether i am circumcised or not.

V

Know an A&M law grad who prominently displays his class ring, one of those giant ones with the fake jewel. Ivy League grads all got the simple gold siggy

lil tomrogers

Yeah hes ready F A but is he really ready 2 F O ?

Andrew Metcalf

America is one the LEAST university focused countries I find. Look at France, it's one of the first questions executives ask of each other (old school ones, it's becoming less and less common). UK it's a big deal for sure too (i''m British and American), but a lot of europe is pretty obsessed with your school when you are in the executive level for sure.

Zane

I am begging you guys for a Dan Rincon episode

pepperjerk

I believe that’s the one, yes!

Zane

Release it on a USB

MoldyTolge

I think Dragomir should meet Nicodemus the Macaque

Degrassi Knoll

Summer's note would be better if he said she would only accept bottled water or beer when he offered her a drink.

Salex

Was that chick a chess or bridge player? I thought Bill Gates was a mad bridge player

Chris Boswell

Did Brace somehow confuse Mark Sanford with Kevin Rudd?

Squirrely_monster

Brace, Liz, and YC, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a university themed-ep/series. There are a few of us listeners who were/are college profs and the institutions we’ve been at have so many secrets… but also the political economy of colleges is fucked like Liz mentioned. Just looking at colleges is a microcosm of the Epstein universe… not to mention reinforces your anti-pedophile podcast status.

Dakota

Fjord around, fjord out

Bailey Sharp

Re: Brace's misremembering of the Kevin Rudd thing... could it be that he's thinking of Harold Holt, the PM who went for a swim in the ocean and disappeared in 1967? I go on walks past his (empty) grave sometimes, which has the epitaph 'He loved the sea' (!!)

Noah

Someone teach brace how to play a damn gong

Grace

Idea for college students — do a deep dive into your own professors and then drop anything juicy on the tip line! Sincerely, someone who used to report to Alex Acosta.

Salex

Our PM goes swimming in the ocean and is never seen again. The nation's response: The Harold Holt Memorial Swimming Centre

Fran

Shoutout Ron Wyden my babygirl

TrueAnonPod

no...I was in Australia in 2009 and have a distinct memory of Kevin Rudd being lost in a mountainous, forested region. I remember helicopters. I recognize that they say this did not happen. I can even believe it did not happen, that nothing of the sort ever occured to Kevin Rudd or around Kevin Rudd. But I do remember it.

TrueAnonPod

I know of this incident, I know that this happened. But I am of course speaking of Kevin Rudd.

Salex

Well now I guess I'm looking into this instead of working. If it was August 2009 a Victorian Cabinet minister called Tim Holding got lost in the bush for a couple of days

Salex

and K Rudd was Prime Minister at the time so the news would have been playing stories back to back

Last Years Man

The creepiest thing about the Summers emails is the way that Epstein keeps asking for updates. He's INVESTED in Summers pulling this off. He's probably hoping to leverage their relationship in the future and is acting more like a handler than a wingman. On another note, these are Jeffrey's years in the cold, so to speak. If he's this active behind the scenes now, how far did his tentacles spread during his salad years?

Major Pisano

“Call Winfrey… call Winfrey“ is all I heard & had hoped that this is what I heard. Alas, “call when free , call when free” is what was said, the facts proved my hopeful ears wrong. Sorrow.

Siobhan Finniss

It was Tony Abbott who disappeared into the bush for a couple of days. He also famously got around in speedos on the beach. What a country.

Last Years Man

Yes. You don't hit it. You do a roll that allows the vibrations to increase.

Last Years Man

Oh my god, the northerners are coming out of the walls. They were here all along.

Last Years Man

I have my father's class ring as an heirloom. He wore it literally til the day he died.

Last Years Man

Funny. Where I am (in Japan), that's exclusively for girls.

Jakew

Beto O’Rourke was a guest professor at my university for like one semester

Fat Cobra

I don't trust that zionist rat ron Wyden one bit. Everytime I hear his horrible voice I vomit a tiny bit it the back of my throat

Jon

The artist formerly known as Prince Andrew

NitroDickclapp III

Excellent idea dude, I love that. Yeah I get the feeling that American college has a lot of very dark secrets. A lot of power imbalance, a lot of young people who don't understand what's what. The whole thing gives me the heebie jeebies

NitroDickclapp III

Yeah I dunno, I was in Aussie during Rudd's reign and I don't remember him getting lost in the outback. It would be a very Rudd thing to do, not to get lost but to survive and find his way back unscathed. That man is a trooper, regardless of everything else. He also gave me and everyone I knew $1000 on a Saturday after the GFC, I was out drinking at a pub when suddenly the entire pub had about a collective 100 grand to spend on booze. It was a hell of a night and Ill tip my hat to Ruddy for it.

Hunter Saint Hunter

Yk these creepy old men answer the phone exactly like how they text. "HELLO? HELLO? JEFF, IS THAT YOU?"

Jacob King

Quietly enjoying the image of Kevin Rudd being lost in the bush for months of his prime ministership. Honestly, it would’ve been good for him and great for the country.

Kevin C

Tough to pierce? Liz hit her antisemite quota this episode

Trylemat

Or how in the German speaking countries website forms always have a separate field for academic degree with dozens of obscure options. And the requirements for a university degree are more formalized, you simply won't even be considered for corporate jobs without a Masters degree.

Louis Wilkins

I’ve been speaking Mandarin to the goannas.

Andrew

And in the 60s PM Harold Holt went swimming and never came back. It just happens and it’s whatever. What a country indeed.

Andrew

It might’ve been Tim Holding. He was an MP or something who went missing for a couple days on a mountain in 2009 and a helicopter found him. But I also have no doubt it was Kevin Rudd.

Aidan

Love you guys but recently feeling like these emails deserve a little bit more seriousness/foresight in terms of episode planning. There are so many interesting elements to these emails and Larry Summers being pathetic to get pussy isn’t really one of them. Like what’s the point - other than the subject of gossip? It feels weird to constantly just see the comment section and episode full of riffs when the subject is inveterate sexual predators and human trafficking

Siobhan Finniss

I've already commented above. But I think you're thinking of the time Tony Abbott disappeared into the bush for a couple of days. He was PM after Rudd/Gillard. Australia has a tendency to elect odd ducks as leaders and he was surely one of the oddest ducks imaginable.

lnxe

Carrying on the great tradition started by the PM getting lost while swimming back in the day

Salex

You've unlocked a memory for me there! Pretty sure my mates bought a lot of drugs and, like laptops and shit, what a time. He's such a square though, I remember when K Rudd went to a NY strip club at one point, and his overall approval levels went up

Eric

I coulda been a contender!

NeoKon Knueppel

Liz was dead on about college. I wasted so much money getting a stem degree at a school full of aspiring business consultants. But I would pay anything to walk the same hallowed campus ground as bronny james

How much are you going to bet that Dragomir, CEO of Israel Weapons Industries, was at the Mongolian Advisory Board in Oslo

Michael S. Judge

How you doin', lil' mama? Let me whisper in your ear Tell ya something that ya might like to hear: Wait till I show you Jeff Wait till I show you Jeff Wait till I show you Jeff He's a moron who fucks kids

Michael S. Judge

I feel bad for Bronny, but "not even the best USC point guard in his own draft, and the best one was Isaiah Collier" is gonna be tough to carry

D

Israel Weapon Industries (IWI) makes AR-15s sold here in our local Bass Pro shop. I would never own one, but they are well regarded by gun nuts. Their most popular model is called the ZION (no joke) and costs about $1300.

Michael S. Judge

I had a college roommate from LA who once mentioned that he went to high school with John Fogerty's daughter, and "she had big titties." I asked what her name was, and he said, "I don't know. I just know what everyone called her." So I asked what everyone called her, and he said, "John Fogerty's Big-Titty Daughter"

Need to give props to Yung Chomsky’s acknowledged step/steppe pun

The Children of Jack Acid

I'm glad this show is finally getting back to its roots! I just wish it didn't take the literal release of 20,000 email by the Epstein estate to finally make it happen.

Eric T

Shout out fellow Arizona State University alumni!

Ava

please bring john early back for the tip line ep !!!

TrueAnonPod

So I’m either mixing up Kevin Rudd getting lost in the bush with one of his cabinet ministers or a DIFFEFENT prime minister???

Hunter

Hot take: I feel like the US college fixation isn’t really associated with “reliving the glory days” for most people, though it is true for some. College (particularly big state schools or insular private schools) is the only place in America where the average suburbanite actually feels like they are part of a community. They are laid out to be walkable, the kids live together in on-campus dorms or nearby apartment complexes designed for college students, and the sports teams aren’t owned by some dickhead that can move the team at will. For big flagship schools, even people didn’t go to school but live in the state feel like that’s a public institution that represents them. It’s people gravitating to one of the few institutions in their lives with whom their relationship isn’t 100% transactional.

Peanut Horse

I think they mean in the cultural sense, the college they went to is how you get a read on someone, more so than even their actual degree. Colleges capture so much of a person future fandom, tradition, place of work, etc with getting to specifics on what the degree even is.

Peanut Horse

It’s the one time in every lucky American’s life that they don’t have a 9-5 like responsibility. Elementary thru HS your there from around 7:30 to 3:30, then you go to college and the amount of freedom you get is insane. Classes spaced out that really only require a few hours a week to keep up with, a lot of the work you’re free to plan whenever fits your schedule. Then you graduate, get a job, and it feels like school again. I’ve been working at my corporate job for 3 years and I still wake up and say “fuck I have to go to school all day” before I correct myself to say “fuck I have to go to work all day”

Twall

TRUEANON: BACK TO CLASS!

Rhys

1.33

Vincent

That's absolutely true, I just think the other end of it is whatever 9to5 hell you get dumped into is a function of how you used that brief moment of freedom, making college not only the one moment you were unburdened but the time right before you fucked it all up. Assuming you fucked it all up. Also, not speaking from experience or anything.

Kyle Stokinger

The reaction to these emails is the best evidence yet that the news only exists to supply material for riffs.

bardito

Fuckin exactly

M D

Come to AZ and do a show! Please :) ASU/Mill sucks tho

Cortni

Do a live show in LA pls pls pls

Myles Dunigan

The Savanah College of Art and Design comes to mind, there’s a lot there that’s super shady but likely not well known outside of fine-art-academia…

The human race = that one race Brace hates but will never admit to hating bc it truly is a love / hate relationship.

Hannah Franklin

brace doing the most carrie bradshaw pun possible

drizzly_november

In addition to the Galil and Tavor rifles, IWI produces the most Israeli of weapons, the Desert Eagle, which Brace has described as the gun equivalent of a gold chain on chest hair.

EMCsquare

My jaw dropped when I heard Larry and Jeff's little pet name for his mentee. I'm not sure why I was surprised that these immature creeps were also virulently racist.

You better not be joking about this gender podcast

Killer Dan

i imagine brace sucking the diamonds off of the ring like little john in the robin hood cartoon

Horse Badorties

Kinda. What's going on is that K-12 is a jail setting, but college is not. You get the privilege of re-learning social graces without prison overtones. It is incredibly freeing for some of us.

Horse Badorties

Nepalese are bred for low-oxygen metabolism (courtesy of the Denisovans) but Scandies were just bred for height and lactose tolerance.

NitroDickclapp III

I have a tip but I live overseas, how do I call the trueanon number for free from overseas people?

Lulu

The "I tried calling you" thing is so boomer coded. I've said it before and I'll say it again - all boomers should be fenced off in a compound like how they did to Isis in Syria.

Lulu

This podcast ain't for you.

Lulu

Fake news!

Anders Behring Breivik episode. Please consider it. One of Us by Seierstad is a fascinating though difficult read.

I love the tale of Dragomir

saaffie

Not sure if mentioned but Sheryl Sandberg was ALSO his mentee and chief of staff. And based on book Careless People she hired loads of ex-lovers and dated picks like bobby k. So would not be surprised if hers was a similar relationship with summers.

saaffie

Polished? The Swiss? You're joking. These are hardened humorless alpine folk!

My brother went to Harvard and when he graduated, we went to a graduation party held by the curator of the Harv art museum and the fucking art in her house ridiculous.

That's a brilliant book, it even breaks your heart for the unwanted and unloved child that young Anders was. I was in Norway when it happened. At the time, it seemed like Breivik was a hopelessly retrograde fool, but in hindsight he was a harbinger of the things to come. His worldview has caught on with the mainstream right, and he was an innovator in political violence, but it REALLY did not feel like it at the time. In the 2010's both he and Elliot Rodger represented the birth of a new criminal archetype, of online radicalization spilling out into real world mass violence - it's a direct line from there to 764/O9A.

Wendi Deng was hanging out with Epstein during the same months she was fucking Tony.

Something I find so heartbreaking in these tranches - amidst all this bro talk and macho, geo-political alpha-off-ing, is that there is almost no reference to any one of the victims. Or even passingly of JE’s sex life. Almost like his prey were non-people. Subhuman. Existing in his mind only in the shadows and the back rooms for his servicing. The fact that he doesn’t need to consider them as part of his ‘important’ work in the world says everything about the depth of his pathology. Their absence is fucking devastating. And how silence (the silence of shame, of fear of being called out, yes, but also and importantly including this kind of silence - the silence of it not being regarded as very important or relevant to the functioning of the ‘adult’ world) is the main currency that allows child sexual abuse by the wealthy and powerful to flourish. Even child sexual abuse among families, to run so rampant. As if the powerful have more important things to bother themselves with than considering the impact their ‘off duty’ actions might have on the people they employ and use for their pleasure. It is deeply revolting.

what’s Brace’s beef with Dan Rincon?

The Woody Allen friendship kills me. Im such a fan of his

As a huge Osees fan, I really appreciate the occasional Dan Rincon trash talk. Now every year when I’m at their show I think, “huh, he got brace hooked on drugs. What a great drummer.”

I just read Super Cannes and the men in these emails are very ballardian.

Honestly relating "I'm just F&B" to "I'm just food and bev" was kinda genius ...and love that ever since we said Hey where's the dersh cue!!! There hasn't been a single one missed lol

Yo why did Brace go on that Moynihan bullshit? That guy was dumb and gay and boring!

Victoria

Brace hates Scandinavians but likes blondes 🕵️‍♀️🤨

Marra McFly

Norwegian listener here. Jagland didn’t deny knowing Epstein. He called the meetings «standard diplomacy stuff» and denied knowing about Epstein’s private life

Deacon Clark

"Roger Khana and To Massey" is one of the funniest jokes Brace has ever made and it's criminal it didn't get any attention

TrueAnonPod

He denied it in 2019 via Berit Reiss-Andersen asking after a query from DN about whether members of the Nobel committee had ever met with Epstein

Marra McFly

My bad, he admitted the emails that came out just recently were true

Happy for Liz to finally have someone to talk sports with. How she ended up podding with two sportsball ass guys I'll never know

Fair play, I’ve read Crack-Up Capitalism, which delves into the subject a bit, but haven’t gotten to Hayeks Bastards yet; which I assume features it much more prominently.

Read it earlier this year. Absolutely agree

Two months late, and I have no idea why I was thinking about it, but I think this is the most likely scenario for you Brace. August 2009, Tim Holding, a Victorian state government Cabinet minister was lost in the bush for 2 days. The bush in Victoria is mountainous and forested, requiring a helicopter for search and rescue as you described. Minor clarification - Tim Holding was a member of Victorian state parliament, not the federal parliament. So he wasn't in the Federal Cabinet under Kevin Rudd. Different Cabinet. But who cares, anyway. From memory, you said you visited some random ass places in Victoria. The disappearance of a state MP would have been constantly in the news for a few days. But it wouldn't have made much news in the rest of Australia. That might explain why the Australians you've asked don't remember it, even vaguely. Also, people get lost in the bush all the time. Unlikely it was Tony Abbott as he wasn't PM until 2013. He did get lost for a few hours in a national park in March 2010. But this was in the Northern Territory, he was quad biking in red sand, and it wasn't overnight/they didn't send out a search party as he found his way back. I can see how your memory might have melded news stories together. It was about the same time that Rudd government / labor party infighting was kicking off. So both stories would have been on the front page / news headlines at the same time. I'm pretty sure I've done this myself travelling overseas. I was in Cambodia in 2017 and Hun Sen was in one of his moods aka kicking all the foreign journalists out of the country, which included a friend we were visiting. I have a memory that our friend was uncontactable for a few days because he was chasing the story of a rampaging elephant that was destroying some villages in a remote part of the country. But my timelines / memories are all mixed up and different to people I travelled with. Anyway, hope that helps!
