We’re back from the first part of our fall tour and kicking around some news items: Kanye continues to find wild new ways to embrace conservatism, Liz Truss’ government wildly flails, Bolsonaro has a pretty wild story about encountering a young Venezuelan woman. Plus, we discuss the vandalism stunt on a Van Gogh painting in the name of climate activism, and take a look at a typical day for a VC-backed tech CEO.

Last chance to catch us live this year at Revolution in Ft. Lauderdale on 10/30: https://www.jointherevolution.net/concerts/chapo-trap-house/

James Murray

Jim Knapp

Akschooallee the jay-z song is called “the story of OJ” and the album is called “4:44” please excuse the autism but my mental Illness causes me to correct people in order to feel normal

Matt Murray

Will should have stayed and did the show in Denver

Zach Pierce

Think Candy O might have rescued her husbands stake in Parlor by luring Kanye with a pump and dump?

Jessica S

All you need is smiles…

The Etymology of Nonsense

I'm like Liam Neeson in Taken but my special set of skills is getting straight dudes to let me suck their dicks.

Jessica Rios

The giant horse statue in Denver always terrifies me. Why does it have red eyes? I live in Denver and hate that damn horse.

Paul F. Holzfäller

Imagine feeling compelled to respond to the “Republicans don’t eat pussy” comment on Pornhub. They disclosed their micropenis to the world by even attempting a rebuttal.

Paul F. Holzfäller

What’s your secret? Androgynous facial features? Not trying to be insulting. I’m just curious.

The Etymology of Nonsense

Nah. I'm a masculine, "straight acting" dude. But I'm also a shameless cock sucker who knows how to use dating apps effectively. When guys reject me I'll just be like, "hey, that's cool, but if you ever change your mind just remember what my homeboy Abe Lincoln always used to say: a mouth is a mouth in a dark room. And he never lied." You'd be shocked how often that works. You'd be even more shocked how many straight dudes have some deep curiosity about getting fucked in the ass.

Poppy Chulo

I'm your gay brother, Mike, and I was bent over!

Poppy Chulo

lol you're crying about the fans who like the good episodes. Gay.

Next on Tucker: the “radicals” of Chapo Trap House swing & miss on opportunity to present sex worker rights issues to listeners

Alec

“the Boys from Brazil” is a good name for a bolsonarista chapo-type pod

Scott

Rare footage of Matt being roasted

Andrew Cross

itkis looking like bald Saul Rubinek

Nathan Williams

What's the take on the van gogh thing? Any basic solidarity or matt taibi levels of leftist reactionism? if the latter will skip this ep

etienne

that's very growth mindset of you to edit out the f-slur!

Mae

You boys are gonna need to be playing catch up these next few months. Seekings Derangements SPM's are up 37% ahead of Chapo.

Ol-Dirty-BAStart

How you gonna do my boy Uncle June like that? He was down with the tuna on the regular, Tony was the once a year man

Noms Chompski

I can't stop thinking about this pocket situation.

Chubby Justin

For rods sake, when are we going to get into the latest and greatest dreher piece?

Matt Norman

Denver airport also looks like a swastika from an aerial view…stay woke

William

Quite a display of the strongest of wills - "if they say something I don't like I'm not listening"

Christopher Price

They've been doing it as part of the live shows, so I'm guessing we'll get our slop when the tour is up.

etienne

"I think back to the all-male dorm I lived in during my last two years of high school. Think of a dorm full of 100 high school juniors and seniors, in the early 1980s. Imagine the pent-up sexual desire. There were a handful of guys who were out, or semi-out, as gay, and nobody thought anything of it. I remember a couple of them took advantage of the dorm administration's inability to recognize what was happening to get themselves assigned a room together, even though they were quietly a couple. A bunch of us envied them, and all the sex they must be having. The thing is, the only thing preventing any of the rest of us from doing the same thing was the internalized taboo against gay sex. Even though everybody in my class (to my recollection) was quite tolerant of homosexuality, it was also something that very few of us had any interest in experimenting with. "

Ron Watkins

Avoid Denver airport at all costs.

etienne

it's unreal they announced they'd stop posting the live eps to the feed because we complained too much and then did this off the record. real monkey's paw hour

Scott

“Soup girls should start a podcast”

Alez

And it’s a good album!

I did nazi that before reading this comment

Jenn

Denver Airport's only purpose is hilarious construction graft.

Brendan A. MacWade

Denver Internal Airport is massive, and yet they couldn't foresee something called TSA security lines. There isn't enough space for the queues - they interfere with the newsstands and shit. The Guardian published a cheat sheet on when the next UK general election could happen: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/oct/17/routes-towards-general-election-uk-explainer-liz-truss And it is looking dire for the Democrats. Apparently losing personal liberties wasn't enough to motivate voters to hold Congress. This is how authoritarianism begins. We're going to way of Poland and Hungary. Prepare to join the underground resistance if you intend to stay in the USA.

Jenn

Look at the artist's other work. He did beautiful work and gives the horse better context!

Skip scrambler

Just got to the part about whether thatcher was a “fit bird.” While the chapo boys are correct, Tony Judt has a short section in Postwar about how Thatcher was an object of sexual satisfaction for all of the political leaders of both western and Eastern Europe + Reagan.

Lydia Maria Child

Democrats would prefer to lose abortion rights, rather than actually do anything positive for the vast majority of working people. Simple as that. Clinging to the already authoritarian corporate status quo and US empire is preferred by Democrats over abortion rights. Time to see things as they are, and not what the center right likes to pretend. And just so it's clear and can't be hijacked by bad faith ass-hattery: if Democrats actually did things that would help people in concrete, materialist ways (the list is endless) and not just endless "narrative" bullshit, they would win in landslides and maintain a permanent hold on the entire government. See FDR. If they actually wanted to win, and wanted to protect abortion rights, they could do this. And yet.... Anyone making excuses for this shit is a fucking moron and coward. You want to fuck over working people for wall street? Just say so and don't hide behind abortion or whatever else. The solution is plain as day. Stop supporting those who do this.

Dylan Wintersteen

The take is: we all slowly roast from climate change.

Doug Cartel

It's ok matt, sometimes we forget which pants we used to smuggle dirt into the prison yard

Nathan Williams

with teenagers that are going to prison because they care about something i guess

John Harwood

At least he was able to make his Great Escape. Oh wait, that ends with him tangled up in a combination of barbed wire and motorcycle parts. Never mind.

Doug Cartel

Man remember when the CIA was so bored before 911 that they were going to declare eco terrorists to be the #1 threat to national security or whatever?

Evan Dixon

As a former article addict, I really appreciate the hard work being done by the Chapo Trap House crew in relieving me of that burden. You have increased my productivity exponentially by saving me all that wasted time reading articles trying to grok the zeitgeist of the interwebs. Now I have free time to clean my house, sort my socks and get on with real life whilst listening to one podcast.

etienne

climate change is so existential and our governments have so completely failed to not only prevent it in the first place but are *guaranteeing* us, giving us hard proof that they will not even attempt at dealing with the consequences either. and the actual green party in the UK's top priority is to cancel train projets to protect small pockets of wetlands with some special birds in them. I think from that angle it's kind of okay to just do whatever about climate change. Just lose your shit and do something stupid. Nothing is gonna matter. Steven Guildbaud from Greenpeace Canada became Environment Minister and the only thing Justin wants him to do is to approve North Bay oil drilling. So honestly, I get it. Glue yourself to the front door of Billiton if it makes you feel alive. You're gonna get a 80% disapproval rating for it no matter what. Some guy self immolated in front of the supreme court about climate change. He got 2.5 articles written about him. At least he's not there anymore to deal with it. Maybe he was more right than everyone else.

etienne

facing climate change as an activist is like trying to beat Nyarlathotep with a kitchen spoon, of course some of them are gonna duct tape themselves to a Winston Churchill statue about it

etienne

totally out of context but it turns out that a 70 year old guy in japan immolated himself a month ago to protest the Shinzo Abe state funeral

Juan Suarez

it's actually cool to just go buck and do w/e

etienne

it's not "cool" but like I get it

Juan Suarez

i lost my phone in the denver airport bathroom a few weeks ago but luckily i had my laptop and did the finder thing where it does the silent hill alarm until you find it

Juan Suarez

its the year of the smile

Nathan Williams

You'll find plenty of people who understand the concept of basic solidarity with teenagers going to prison whether they thought it was a good idea or not. You'll also find NASA climate scientists who thought it was a very good idea and very effective. Personally I'm not sold on its effectiveness but I understand solidarity. And what if they weren't trying to "do" anything and were lashing out out of desperation because the time we live in as the chapo boys are very fond of telling anyone has foreclosed any path to meaningful change

etienne

positive squad keepin it 💯 [sent from being superglued to a gantry crane in the port of long beach]

Eric Chabot

Dude just wanted to use his campaign funds to hire a hooker so he made a campaign video. Pure genius.

Do Golems Dream of Ceramic Sheep

It would be funny if Mackenzie Scott decided to bankroll the Amazon Unionization drive. Would create all sorts of questions (is this an op? What kind of control does she want over the effort/results?), but it's definitely got the potential to mix effective altruism¹ and petty spite together in a fun way [1] as in actually effective and actually altruistic. None of this warmed over Rationalist dreck.

Julie Baxter

Van Gogh: "Hey. If you motherfuckers have a better take on fighting climate change, I'm all ears."

etienne

january 2025 lmao

Poppy Chulo

With the price of escorts now it would be less painful to cut your ear off just to get some pussy.

Julie Baxter

The cool thing about a Getty heir financing this was that J. Paul Getty III had one of his ears cut off when he was held hostage in Rome in the 60s.

Nathan Williams

Plenty of justice movements in the past have indulged in what you'd call empty gestures, including actually destroying paintings in the case of the suffragettes. Leftists looking for purity in protest are grim and this kind of action is good to make sure we can avoid you when things get really bad

james

My favorite Brazilian journalist Noahow Berlatskiano

Paul Delaney

Bill Hicks? I thought everyone knew he faked his death and became Alex Jones.

syd

Two of my friends and I travelled down from Maine to see the show on Friday and it was such a good time. We, as people who hail from the land of “everything is a 45 minute drive from everything else”, got to experience the joy of public transit, no driving or flying necessary (such a beautiful thing. I love trains) and then got to see a kickass show. Also 95 Bulls were fucking awesome. Great job guys, we had a blast

Bud Light

Dudes. Been smiling every day since the hannidate episode.

Joey

Mad respect for Hollis. Get him on the pod!

Juan Suarez

By the way, the Getty heiress was the black sheep of the family who got shipped off to boarding school and partied/did drugs until she contracted HIV/AIDS. After that she just started focusing on funding charities, so Felix was right on this one.

CHET_BIGTRUCK

Big ups to that guy, what a mensch

Victor Prado

Noel Berlatskinho is absolutely killing me

Andrew Tennenbaum

As a chapo greywolf, I frequently get asked what I actually do on a day-to-day basis. In case you were wondering, here's a day in the life of an angel investor for a successful left wing comedy politics podcast A thread 👇

Andrew Tennenbaum

2. While typing the thread, I receive a notification that someone has replied to my original post. In my moment of distraction I fat finger the delete button on my post while trying to decide how to incorporate their post into my thread. I frantically look for an “undeleted post” button, but there is none. Now my problems have multiplied and difficult decisions have to be made. Do I give up on the shitpost and do some actual work, or do I double down on the post, and waste what remains of my productive time in the day trying to play this off as part of the joke. One hour has passed.

etienne

step 4: I fuck up all of this up and waste hours of my salaried email job and still get paid

Andrew Tennenbaum

Step 7. My phone battery is getting low and my legs have fallen asleep. I try to stand, but collapse back onto the toilet. This is a serious predicament. Another hour passes

Joe Bowden

I’ve met the girl who threw the soup at the painting and trust me she is not a false flag. Just a very overzealous gen z activist with her heart in the right place

orc

You think Eric Adams’ New York would be more lenient on celebrities vaping

MKatieUltra

Real Sex was where I learned about “sploshing,” which is of course British 😩

Marcus

I live at the wrong end of Florida.

skrrt vonnegut

is that where they get the "pey wet" for the wigan kebab?

xasquim

Fbi, and they did G

Jon

The characterization of watching Real Sex growing up was highly relatable. But Felix’s reading of the Portuguese word não is literally me.

Ernest Ambrus

Felix and Portuguese is an amazing pairing.

etienne

it was an amazing attempt. he collapsed French into Israeli and added "-ao" to a couple words. masterclass

Ian Woods

That founder is a genius. She talked rich people into giving her money to pay other people to do work giving you access to someone else’s work all while tweeting about how her job literally takes 20 minutes to do. Absolute unit of a entrepreneuHER

Adam Edwards

Felix's ancient athenian boy gorilla grip bussy from like 2 months ago is worth more smiles to me than you can imagine

Reuben Simpson

If y’all got film of the live show and uploaded it I’d suck all your dicks

Misha the Homeless

"BIPOC Puppet Theater" is now a permanent groove in my brain

MKatieUltra

Googled those and it only confused me more

Isaac

I highly suggest everyone to read the comment section before you listen to the episode. The comments are way more entertaining when you have no context for what anyone is saying. Try it out

Isaac

please boys 🥺 we'll be good and dogpile anyone that complains about the live eps

Marcel Szabo

SPMs off the charts this episode. A classic.

etienne

tbf starting a company that's almost nearly the same thing as Apple News makes total sense in this environment where the only possible endgame for a consumer technology company is to get acquired by one of the 5 real corporations

Zachary Sloan

What's this nonsense about "Real Sex"? Back in my day, I watched the scrambled Cinemax channel while waiting for the occasional fraction of a second when you could make out a nipple

UltraCoil

Bunch of activists in Australia worked out how to do effective direct action for climate change. They tied themselves to rail bridges from coal mines and climbed on coal trains to stop them running. The government introduced new laws to throw even bigger books at them. Now that shit faces a year in prison and huge fines.

grymm

9% approval rating is to Truss as shit in pants is to Nadler.

Ozzie

Liz is OUT, bring back Boris!

SaintVitus

The boys need to come up to Portland!

Gage

Felix is unfunny to a lege dry degree lmao.

Marina

BIPOC PUPPET THEATRE

Marina

You have to support Zet Media, or you’re a misogynist colonizer #girlboss #coffeeandjesus #coffeegrindset

justdave

Liking coffee is misogynistic, I only drink Fiji water with dissolved birth control pills in it, for the estrogen, to connect with Gia as I do kegels every morning #mencanlactatetoo

Marina

Not me trying to understand the sheer physics of dudes doing kegels 😂

Marina

I feel like if I Google “sploshing” I will immediately be added to some sort of intelligence watchlist

Marina

Step 8. Use long, unclipped gamer nails to scratch “Let’s go Brandon lol jk” into the toilet stall wall as a form of ironic agit prop, because on-the-ground organizing and activism is a daily calling.

justdave

Same as with chicks, cept' we have to do them while doing a hand stand

TheTempleSynthetic

My SPMs are skyrocketing ever since achieving the praxis of thinking about working! #blessed

Cormac O'Brien

are you actually autistic or just using it as a slur

Ethan Mack

This is a classic episode
