This episode is about Kanye’s continued right turn/presidential ambitions, but we get to everything from American food culture to failed conservative banking schemes to Gambo to dybbuks. “Freewheeling” as they might say.

Thanks to all who came out to the L.A. show, still spots open in NYC and Florida, these shows have been hot, hot, hot! Come thru: https://www.chapotraphouse.com/live

It’s hard to distinguish between Kanye’s talent as a troll and his profound mental illness. Is his Twitter popoff a psychotic episode or a hardcore publicity stunt? We’ll never know for sure

Noname

When he's really off the rails he's usually off his meds. He normally only stops taking meds when he's recording new material. He's convinced that being bipolar is his creative superpower. So when he's trying to be creative he quits his meds and starts acting wild.

Jeffrey Miller

I work in mental health and this scans. There's different reasons a lot of people with bipolar disorder stop taking their meds, and one of them is they feel that the meds inhibit their creativity. Being manic can feel fucking amazing, but that often comes with making poor impulsive decisions. I had a client suddenly pack up all her stuff with a plan to start her own hair salon a thousand miles away.

I can't see a Kanye coalition forming within the GOP anytime soon (not at a national level). Trump started toying with the idea of being president at least 20 years ago. Maybe in 20 years the electorate will have changed enough for Kanye to build a critical mass of political support. But I can't see it forming in the next 10 years with the existing electorate.

Post Void

He's just trying to go after the New Balance market.

LIL CHEEKS

Drake is a Pedophile Kanye is red pilled and knows about Clinton affiliates...

LIL CHEEKS

Don’t believe Drake is a pedophile... I did my research, did you do yours ??? 🤷🏽‍♂️

Westerday

My vote is for Billy Bob Thornton 2024.

AbeLinkin

Ye’s rightward turn counterbalanced by calling out Kushner’s rapacious capitalism and Israeli influences in the US government and being immediately labeled an anti-semite?

AbeLinkin

And Will, for a guy who clearly was taught by erudite New Englanders as indicated by your insistence on “rahther”you should really up your “nucyouler” Dubya game and consider nuke-lee-rr.

Tim O'

No Rod Dreher article? It was lame as fuck to discontinue the live episodes.

JV

Christman to SNL: TOUCH GRASS

I don’t think Kanye can pull the same high percentage of Right Wingers across the elderly and white supremacist spectrum. On the other side of that, he can probably bring in a higher percentage of gen z and minorities who have been disenfranchised and subsequently disinterested in politics. I very much doubt he’d win the primary though. Higher chance that he’d be a disruptive 3rd party candidate for the Republicans in a DeSantis v Biden 2024 run

Demented Avenger

Roger Waters played in Israel in 2006. So does that make him not anti-Semitic in official discourse? (He's not in reality, of course.)

Sela Lewis

I have been screaming at this podcast for months. The secret weapon next celebrity for the Democratic Party is not Matthew McConaughey or Drake. It’s Kim Kardashian. The ultimate convergence of politics and culture is where do you stand on Kimye.

Ian Woods

Candace Owens is like the princess from ‘The Princess and Pea’, if the mattresses are ‘institutional neglect of American minority groups’ and the pea is ‘anything good happening to black people anywhere’.

Ian Woods

‘Reactionaries in Paris’

Patrick Carroll

One thing that gets left out of the kanye hullabaloo is that a lot of this political shift happened because he became infatuated with Candace Owens. We can talk about how Candace is not attractive enough to warrant that infatuation, but at the end of the day kanye is just trying to get pussy by acting like he is interested in a girl’s weird bullshit and honestly I find that relatable.

Bobi Jon-son Kenobi

Seething about the lack of live show recordings because we’re missing out on the new Rod Dreher post. On another note, I’m not usually one to claim physical strength over others, but I could beat Kanye in a fight

Calvin Bishop

We need that Rod Drehr emergency pod

“Facial micro lipo” is my new “cellar door.” Felix is the wordsmith of a generation ☝️🧐

Major bit me

Oh my god President Kanye will build a gulag system but for Hollywood sickos and college professors

KatrinaJadeHelm

Does anyone have a link to the Nabisco professor thing, that one got by me

MLVF

Hey, I’ve got tickets to the live Brooklyn show this Friday but cant make it. Prefer to give away to fans who will seriously go to the show but can’t afford tix. DM me on reddit loveparadehk

Stop the Spread

Y’all are WILDING to think Kanye would EVER be president. Christ. Absolutely tripping. That coon is DONE.

Jamin Kreighbaum

Is Kanye another one of those guys infiltrating the highest ranks of the pedophile cabal like Trump did?

Methew

30:10 the critical mass of The Rolling Stones was gone upon Brian jones’ death, juuuu sayn

Methew

I’m not sure what def con Candice is on with Jews though. Her and the TP crowd are fervently pro Israel types right?

Patrick Carroll

Honestly I would’ve agreed with you but Candace went off on the Jews yesterday on her lame little radio program

Doug Cartel

they used to say "good jews" were the ones that stayed in israel and "bad jews" lived abroad, and now it's about how hard they practice? boring

Rusty Shackleford

How the fuck is anybody going to take you seriously when you say American sniper is fascist if you're also debating whether or not like Terminator 2 is fascist. Let's have some perspective here. Sometimes I think Matt wants to get rid of college not out of some altruistic instinct but just because he sees it as competition. He wants to have a monopoly on boring collegiate bullshit takes

Josh Woods

Fuck it, why not put The Rock in office? It'd be nice to have a charismatic president, and Southland Tales was pretty fun.

Eric Rapp

You guys have been on a streak! Appreciate the hilarious and insightful content. If you read what the peasants sey doen here, I recommend (for Felix) the Lars von Trier film 'The House that Jack Built'. The Stuka and the hoeling sirens (as discussed early in this ep.) feature thematically in it. Could scratch his little autistic itch.

dddilettante

RE: LA City Council — y’all keep saying “recordings” when you mean clips. There is one recording that’s ~80 minutes long on KnockLA’s YouTube channel

Marcus

Tucker fell madly in love with Ye during that interview.

James Roche

BANGER ep from the Dry Boys

A Loon

Nah, Delia Derbyshire.

Scout

This episode cured my Havana syndrome 🙏🙏🙏

Robert E LGBT

As a lib, I will have been owned when Kanye takes the oath of office

Michael Landreth

I think I can tell for sure. Psychosis always makes for the best publicity. Right or wrong is irrelevant. The best publicity is unintended. Doesn’t mean it’s right or wrong, just effective or ineffective.

Michael

"As long as you support Israel you can say anything you want about Jewish people." Perfectly sums up the moral bankruptcy of modern Zionism.

The Cheerful Comrade

Nerdy etymology thing here, the Y as in Ye in Old English denotes a th sound. The letter Y used to represent that sound. A lot of languages still have a letter representing that sound. So Ye olde podcast would just be the olde podcast.

etienne

it's old english for "the, west, the"

Jessica S

Great show, guys.

Jonathan Schwartz

You know the Chapos are real ones because they always forget to plug their brand and shows.

Scott

(Some) British politicians enjoyed the thick of it so much they internalised some of the language. Like Veep, it glamourises the profession.

Scott

He called it the “Adorno hole” this very ep

Zach Pierce

HOTEP YEEZUS chose the most MID “death con”… Wanna be real? Go death con 5 or 1 player✊🏼

Zach Pierce

Ye broke that old paradigm with his genius. He’s a genius bro. A genius

Zach Pierce

JOSH Kushner or JARED Kushner Poll 23 hours remain

Palmer Anderson

In regards to Jewish folklore, are reform Jews allowed to dual wield?

Shiv

Did no one tell Matt the fallen Try Guy’s Ivy Bestie wrote that SNL sketch?? Go touch REDDIT Mr Christ Man

Matt Larrabee

What was the end bumper track? I'm assuming its Kanye but not sure

Sam Boullt

black skinhead by kanye

Joshua Garcia

I did not get email notification for this episode. I demand to see a manager!

K H

Yes but not while wearing armor

K H

The primitive understanding and implementation of SSRIs and other brain medicines probably does inhibit a lot of necessary creative functions. A patreon comment probably isn't the place to go into speculation, but the main reason they are used is to prevent outward signs of mental illness. There is no actual understanding of how they work and so no way to truly optimize the outcomes because there is no objective measure. Until a working brain model is developed(and it looks like that will only happen as money perverts try to achieve immortality by uploading their brain) mental illness will be fought in the same way ancient shamans prescribed herbal remedies, just with herbs made in the lab. The science takes only a slightly more interested perspective than god.

Joe

trying to fuck the Adorno hole just made me sad and anxious

Taylor Borie

Like Matt, I also thought it was pronounced “Yee”

Daffy

Pretty sure they're referring to the theory that all films are 'propaganda' not all films are fash. Most successful Hollywood films are by their very existence pro-western propaganda. Fascist maybe, pro-western definitely.

Luke

Didn't get an email for this episode

m w b

you're too dumb to understand the point but decided to get mad about it anyway lol

I have 2 tickets for the live show in NYC looking to sell just for face value! Hmu if you want :]

Do Golems Dream of Ceramic Sheep

You're correct, but also most Reformniks would say "l mean, there's a proscription against it in Leviticus, but there's a proscription against everything in Leviticus" while getting way too much enjoyment out of wearing half plate and flailing their longsword and mace around (and taking full penalties for it).

justdave

So you decided to just 'stop by' - not cool man

YukiNukem64x

What's your e-mail address? I can send you an e-mail if you need e-mails. geeksquad@emailinfo.geeksquad.com sends me tons of em

Steve D

Gambo prediction - because the previous Gambo can travel through time or see through trees or whatever, they are obviously going to have a crossover where the old Gambo and the new Gambo have to team up across centuries to be back on tv and cash checks and fight a war.

Zott23

Me that whole episode: Damn I gotta listen to Black Skinhead once this ep is over. Producer Chris: I got you friend poster.

etienne

bumping this up one comment so that the Kanye West "white lives matter" episode doesn't have precidely 88 comments

Deez nutz

The Black Skinhead track was the perfect way to close this one. Bravo

Sam Farrington

Yo what the fuck is Gambo?? Is it like game of thrones but with Barbies and Perks? Fuck

Steve D

It’s a funny way of referring to Game of thrones please don’t think too hard about it

Dan

Classic episode 10/10 *chef's kiss*

Ron Watkins

Ye. Where is the Kan? Is it a con? We are being conned.

Pete

Are there any good books on the kind of American Food culture stuff Felix was talking about? Like regulations disappearing, food being worse? I know there's the Michael Pollen stuff, but not that
