Friend of the show Robert Franco for another entry in our conservative literature reviews, this time looking at Patrick Bet-David’s young adult novel “The Academy”. Imagine, if you will, a kind of persian Harry Potter where the most pissed-off teenager in Glendale gets recruited to travel to Dallas-Wakanda to be trained at a secretive institution where holographic Sir Lancelot and Marilyn Monroe teach you the secrets of honor and seduction. Learn about all this AND get a newfound respect for the Shah in today’s episode.

Iranian JK Rowling sounds like a Felix character.

Timothy Buttons

Gaping my gob for a glob of VALUETAINMENT

etienne

Cody Ross Rex

Yazzz we bet David Stans are heeere for this

etienne

Joanne but forcing gay guys to get SRS at gunpoint

Nathan

Or a Cumtown character

radhatter37

This book sounds like it would hurt to read. Like, one half-dose of the Turner Diaries.

Pay

Iranians deal with enough as is. PBD is Assyrian-Armenian!! I demand a correction!

Gurjot

Are you not valuetained?!

Tim O'

It's gonna burn down either way, just enjoy listening to them talk about Harry Frotter

Mitch H.

Chat GPT write a heterosexual sex scene in the mind of a closeted man.

Dang

Increasingly disappointed that we're not getting any takes on recent events in any detail (deportations to El Salvador, tariffs etc) to focus on more obscure topics THE TAKES MUST FLOW

Dang

Right? Seems a bit weird honestly

Steeeeve

Wow I guess this must mean chapo think the deportations are good. Also the Tariffs thing JUST happened

Dang

I never implied anything of the sort - just eager to hear their takes as a subscriber and fan is all They've responded on their own Steeeeeeeeeeve, so no need to jump in thnx

Yoshi

Chapo is pretty much in chill guy mode these days. Cant say i blame them as leftists currently have no levers of political power or electoral representation. A lot of the leftist commentary right now is just lib-style panic farming. Id rather laugh at stupid books n shit. There are lots of other folks providing actual organizing advice if you are interested. Have you plugged in w/ any of your local groups? We gotta win on the ground right now, that's all that counts.

Dang ol' Steeeeve

FAHKIN Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeve

I love valuetainment and saying stuff

This book is stupid and is dumber than conservative movies

David Allen Coe

We need Dune for more ethnicities. Albanian Dune. Irish Dune. Keep them coming!

Savannakhet

References to Garth Marenghi's Darkplace - let's go.

K H

Statistically some of those guys were probably assholes or pedophiles or something. We always presume innocence, what's the deal with that?!

K H

Stolen Iranian valor.

K H

There is a CHEE TOE. IN. THE WHITEHOUSE.

Sean S

Respect for the Garth Merangie shout out

thicchatlogan

in the interest of bipartisanship we need to presume innocence in 50% of cases and guilt in the other 50% and let the marketplace of ideas do its job

Dang

In this economy?

Nicholas Needham

How dare These slop merchants choose what’s on their menu

shinyfailure

Academy Fight Song, fuck yeah

John

Ashur so awesome. Glendale teen rebel without a cause. Bobby Briggsijian

the dumpist

Isn’t Valuetainment a buzzword made up by Tom Haverford

Peanut Horse

Hopefully PBD starts a prod company to get this movie made

Wyatt the Wallaby

The Margaret thatcher Karl Marx debate sounds insane

Matthew

They said they were going to discuss the Shah, but Phil Leotardo didn't come up even once? 🤔

Gumby 0000

Yall need to stop fucking around and get rm brown on the pod

Sam

They had to compromise

justdave

Lee Harvey Oswald teaches phys ed (think of that picture with him and his rifle but he's got a little whistle and clipboard instead, also him firing a starter pistol and everyone running is funny)

Son of El Topo

a little bit of column A, and a little bit of column B

Osborne MOCs

"If you interested in Iran revaluation history this is the book you want to read I also red 3time "Your next 5 Moves" from Patrick. if you like to plan your next moves you should read this book Patrick you became my Hero , Your life story and your back round it's very similar to mine. I like to grow and become like you . God bless you" 5-star review on Amazon

Matthew

He never had the makings of a varsity comprador

Garth Hillsborough

That's a primo Fire Walk With Me reference from Felix

Christian Johnson

Anxiously awaiting a Beneil Dariush reference from Felix, he dedicated a UFC victory to "all the victims of communism in the world today".

Christopher Farley

Wisdom, strength, and courage are the three aspects of the Divine Power embodied in the Triforce in the Legend of Zelda

Michael

Both Will and Felix need to go on the PBD Podcast. Sam Seder was just recently on and one of the guys was just screaming at Seder and I think Biederman would make the screaming guy stroke out while Meneker would just sit back and laugh.

Brent

This book fully rips off the also terrible Spy School series, written for children

MEAT CLOWN

Whole lotta screaming and mic peaking in this episode but I love a good right wing book review so I can't complain too much

Travis

Felix begins speaking

Matt T

Felix killing it this episode

Gumby 0000

Dude I'm burning you down

Dick Wolf

“I know writers who use subtext and they’re all cowards.” –Garth Marenghi

nick schultz

I want to go on record saying that I would not hang out with PBD, even if his wing man Felix was with him.

Bil

Boring

etienne

using Patrick Bateman as an example of a guy who doesn't want to kill hobos

Ghordo

@40:32 The way they describe WorldCorp makes it sound like Aperture Science, Inc.

drunk cig

This is his Magister Ludi. The podcast is his Steppenwolf.

Stop the Spread

It’s really funny because Tupac was essentially a communist.

Cullen S

Obligatory PBD “OHMYGOD” shoutout

Marc Silverstein

Hes not even ethnically Persian. He's ethnic Armenian and Assyrian.

danny

book reviews are my favorite episodes hands down

Neal

Speaking of twin peaks. This character sounds like conservative James from twin peaks

Mitch H.

the elders of Zoroaster

CJ

Daaaawg the Mission to Burma outro

No

Iranian monarchists are one of the hall of fame CIA-backed cults, right up there with Falun Gong and the Moonies

Steve D

mission rules forever

Son of El Topo

“They did all the positions… girl on top, doggy, and normal”

Son of El Topo

Every time I’ve seen that guy he is screaming and bright red

Son of El Topo

You wouldn’t say that if you had been educated by the Tupac hologram

Philip Wailes

“The Academy” clearly is a pathetic right wing rip off of beloved young adult fantasy series Dogcatcher Inutaro

JoJo Sliwa

Who else wants Chapo merch with that PBD painting on it?

eduard karpoev

A lot of this seems to be PBD just playing with dolls in his head of all his favorite people.

nick

I thought that Marilyn Monroe was going to say that the only man who could resist her, because he’s just too powerful, with whom she is hopelessly in love, was none other than Mohammad Reza Pahlavi himself.

Vivian Irby

They called a magazine a clip, smh. Do better, guys.

Michael

He’s apparently a real little fella too.

Bobi Jon-son Kenobi

It seems that this book is plagued by one fatal question that it cannot answer: Why?

Fernslinger

I’m disappointed that we didn’t get to find out about Cassandra’s butt and whether or not her family were proud of it

Shiv

Felix’s Softie Era is so good. The highest stakes he can understand is a threat to his “wife and kids.” Someone husband this man down!! Maybe someone in the Air Force, or a Zookeeper.

Shiv

what is this, HTDGM cross-over?

K H

The gun was from Hitler and period accurate.

Moises Asbez

This that new People's History ive been hearing abou?

Hudson

That makes absolutely no sense, unless it's just a really circuitous way of dick riding him

Shiv

It’s neither circuitous nor deep enough to qualify as “dick-riding” to observe a single childless man joking about his family multiple times per ep

parker

Tbf sex does usually involve literally dick riding once in a while

Zachary Sloan

Looking at Amazon reviews: "If you interested in Iran revaluation history this is the book you want to read I also red 3time "Your next 5 Moves" from Patrick. if you like to plan your next moves you should read this book Patrick you became my Hero , Your life story and your back round it's very similar to mine. I like to grow and become like you . God bless you" I lol'd at "if you like to plan your next moves you should read this book." Also "Iran revaluation"

Zachary Sloan

Did you miss the part about her dad being an asshole? Clearly he did not appreciate her butt.

Zachary Sloan

Lmao I posted this same review in a comment!

Stephen Baynham

I'm more interested in Iraq (dinar) revaluation

Rick Grimer

No joke Kiki Johnson is the name I used in highschool to try to convince my friends that I had a girlfriend who went to another school. Chose that name cause I was from a Black neighborhood and it sounded like a generic, but believable Black name. I think this author had the same idea.

Jacob

Felix: “its like video games”

liz

The Mission of Burma drop got me lol

Reece Coren

would you kill holograph teacher hitler if he was debating 2pac?

Drew

So is this academy Gülenist or anti-Gülenist

Reece Coren

wait so you’re telling me this book is just the cobbler ?

Will Robinson

Books like this aren’t helping conservatives beat the “writing books to launder money” charges

Ant koz

Since this episode last month I’ve become obsessed with watching this guys videos. He and his little crew are the stupidest collection of men I’ve ever seen. It’s crazy how the media sphere of the right can’t produce smart people. It speaks to the ideology, like I’m from Georgia I have right wing friends and family , some of them are smart. And what they concede is that they support conservative politics because it exists to continue making things better for them and those like them, and more difficult for poor people. I think to believe that conservatism is a better way to structure society for the masses actually takes stupid people, and pbd is king stupid. I literally don’t think he understands the concept of competition, he thinks the way to a better world is for every single American to own a million dollar business.

Tommy U

i feel like after 50 years of exile you need a better cause than a dynasty established in the 20th century. please mass convert to zoroastrianism before doing this
