New details about Clarence Thomas’ billionaire benefactor Harlan Crow keep coming to light, forcing us to contemplate new questions like: What do Lenin, Mao and Hagrid’s Hut have in common? And, do Hitler’s napkins force us to confront the evil in the hearts of men? We contemplate this plus: DeSantis flails, Kanye’s school has no stairs, and the Dalai Lama sucks tongue. All this and more on today’s ep.

Should be a few tickets left for the late show of our screening of John Carpenter’s “In The Mouth of Madness” at the Roxy Cinema on April 27th, come thru. Will and Hesse will be speaking at both screenings: https://www.roxycinemanewyork.com/screenings/chapo-trap-house-movie-mindset-presents-in-the-mouth-of-madness-35mm/

There will come a day where loads are refused. But today is not that day

Roy

well I'll be damned, seems as if the famed podcasters of chapo trap house have put out another episode

skrrt vonnegut

The inscription on the autographed copy of Mein Kampf read "To Harlan. You a real one, look me up when you're in the Fatherland!"

The Etymology of Nonsense

Everyone here pretending like they wouldn't have an original signed Hitler as a center piece in their own dining area if they could is a liar

Mike Loudin

Come and get it you hogs! 🐷🐷🐷

John Mitchell

YES!!! MORE!!! FEEED ME!!! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Methew

Yo F3 is still like 170mph or some shit

Pelican Grief

Like I'm going to put trite art school drop out trash on my walls? Fuck outta here

Josh G

Opening up with Ramadan whoop whoop!

John Swan

Damn I guess I’m a liar :/

elyes

"get a new lama"-57:15

Michael S. Judge

OK, guys, I'll trade you The Pair of Jeans That Fit Stalin Just Right for a couple Spears of Destiny

Major bit me

Harlan Crowe is to the BlackRock Office what the gay cigar guy was to the Mad Men office, except instead of sexually harassing the Italian one Harlan corners the Italian one and tries to impress him with shitty photos of his Mussolini memorabilia room

socialism is when slop for the pigs

One of Himmler's dreams was to turn the conquered Eastern Europe into a vast resort where SS officers could visit fanciful towns decorated in themes of Teutonic folklore. It's so funny that the American version of that is where some rich Texas asshole brings Supreme Court judges and right-wing pundits to his Harry Potter hobo shack / 50's malt shop / Hitler reliquarium.

Zach Pierce

Love the one Crow brother who was hooked on blow and married a b level actress only to go through a $76 million dollar divorce. Then he died very young BEFORE he could ever get into retro Nazism - those wacky CROWS amirite?

Zach Pierce

EDIT! They covered it. GOATS

KatrinaJadeHelm

Who the fuck told Felix about the nba. I’m gonna mail you a medal

Dan

Donda Academy sounds like if MOVE had a school.

HamDrawn

Centipedes are always KOS.

b-rar

Don't know if you guys listen to normie podcasts too but recently Bert gave Tom a cup from Hitler's tea service as a birthday present on 2 Bears 1 Cave. So I totally buy Matt's take that this is just how every suburban dad would decorate their man cave given the means

syd

I like that Will pronounces Mario Kart like Mary O'Kart

Nolan

I’m just so upset at Tiger Woods for appropriating white culture.

Aaron Baer

I'm upset he only won 50 masters and bagged it this past weekend for his hamstrings ... Sellout !!!

Nolan

That’s what I’m saying!!!!! I miss when Tiger was doing ambien and cheating on his wife like an AMERICAN

Doug Cartel

yeah I keep an 88mm cannon in my front yard as an eternal reminder of hitler's evil and also the versatility of the 88mm cannon as an anti-aircraft gun, anti-tank weapon and artillery platform. That Dana White quip reminds me of that article about Rob Liefeld. "Yeah, that's Conan the Barbarian's sword. And after Arnold gets in and changes all the laws, it will be the President's sword." Imagine Kanye trying to do Jonestown but he drinks the Kool-Aid first before anyone has even received a cup He starts talking into the mic and just folds like a cheap suit

etienne

Felix kinda undersells the ethos of the nazis wrt/ art, those guys thought Impressionism was a mental illness

etienne

F3 is actually impressive, it's basically as high as a human can go on the single-seater racing totem pole without having Midichlorians. but bragging about it 20 years after the fact is low key sus

T

Will hears Mario say "Mahrio Kart!" every time he starts a game, yet Will still refuses to pronounce it correctly. He's the Jordan Peterson of anti-Italian-American discrimination.

T

How about one of his NFTs

Kamran Husain

naw man indian men can only do mental shit like jedi mind control they can’t do the dragon ball thing bc they’re too horny now

NovalisGuy

I would contribute a significant sum of money to get Felix a fade from Brandon the naked barber

matilda

when my parents met my dad lied to my mom and told her he was a formula three driver (she’d never heard of it either), later she told his friends and they died laughing bc my dad is a shit driver. he also pretty much looks like milhouse lol

DoctorShields

Trammel Crow Jr, his “Earth X” foundation/cover, and Old Parkland itself are huge cans of worms

A RHINO

That dudes for sure a Nazi, you don't have to protect him, you can be a dumbass Nazi and rich people love eugenics

James Blackmon

Their trump/gop analysis sounds pretty spot on. They've learned the wrong lessons from 2016

Sam Schick

Cushbomb coming in hot!

aarinsanity

I just don’t think there’s much of a story here. Billionaires collect weird shit. Id really like to see the antiracist left be less racist towards Clarence Thomas.

Tim Mullen

Harlan Crowe is the crustiest billionaire name out right now

vermouth

what abt the proracist left

Ian H

"They were also notorious for fighting with each other to see who was toughest and for their sexual predation of lay boys. All schoolboys in Lhasa were fair game for these dobdos, and most tried to return from school in groups for protection against them. I knew for some time that I was being pursued and had several close calls. But I was always able to escape until one fateful day when that monk caught me after a gadrugba performance in Lhasa and forcibly took me to his apartment in the monastery. He made me a prisoner, threatening me with beatings if I tried to escape or I refused to cooperate with him sexually. It was distasteful, but he released me after two days. The incident, however, reawakened my ambivalent feelings toward traditional Tibetan society. Once again its cruelty was thrust into my life. I wondered to myself how monasteries could allow such thugs to wear the holy robes of the Lord Buddha. When I talked to other monks and monk officials about the dobdos, they shrugged and said simply that that was just the way things were."-Tashi Tsering

a billionaire family has a vacation home next door to my house. It’s been wild getting to know them. Their now deceased grandfather made their fortune through SF real estate while at the same time that he was the SF real estate commissioner and basically controlled Bay Area politics for decades. The current generation are thick as bricks and have more money than they know what to do with. They literally have a rosemary Kennedy type situation with one of their kids which is pretty amusing. If there is any hope for the world, it is that the billionaire aristocracy are getting significantly dumber than the generation that brought their families to wealth and power, and in another few decades the aristocracy will be so droolingly stupid they should be easy to topple.

Isaac Suárez

That Matt Walsh bit is amazing. All I can say is that the blind veneration of the past, particularly the belief that uniqueness through historic contingency is the equivalent of the ultimate good, is one of the more lowkey but pure distillations of reactionary politics. It goes all the way back to Burke, and, I suspect, has always been more meaningful to the vast majority of conservatives than anything in the liberal tradition. It’s the belief that what came from the past deserves automatic veneration- at least until it inconveniences you (then you willfully ignore it, submerging it in what came before and what came after.)

Stellar manatee

Rich dudes buying Nazi shit is like poor guys buying ninja shit at the mall.

The Etymology of Nonsense

Having a Hitler NFT is an appropriate way to remember Hitler without showing him any respect. Very pro Jewish way to prevent history from forgetting his crimes

Gubriel

I think we're all allowed a few normie podcasts

j c

Goku is canonically Guatemalan

Crashh

Exactly. Ninjas experts at assassinating the bourgeois, er I mean, samurai

Brent in TX

great episode... let Matt rant more

b-rar

I appreciate that Will pronounces Mario correctly

J.W.

Wasn't the Hitler art literally a plotline of corrupt, rich whites on JUSTIFIED?

Gubriel

Chris with the buzzer beater

Aaron Baer

So professorial with the rants ... An American classic !!!!

Jacob Calcutt

Banger ep this week. Love the sekiro lore dump

Snooder87

Actually Goku is Son Wukong. So he is legitimately a Taoist convert to Chinese Buddhism...

nomorepls

God-tier transition from Harry Potter to Ride of the Valkyries I lost my shit

AKorgar

There's a real Mandate of Heaven-type dynamic going on

Houthi & the Blowfish

This is basically like that businessman in Seinfeld that Kramer tries to sell the mail bag from the Son of Sam to. Only a billionaire freak would want it.

Karl Childers

no joke that one really fucking threw me, 10/10

Reece Coren

milhouse ass racing league 💀 i love felix

MKatieUltra

My WWII vet grandpa died about a month ago and was guarding outside Nuremberg when Hermann Göring killed himself. They had a Nazi flag as a kind of trophy in their basement, which apparently confused their Jewish friends.

Houthi & the Blowfish

Dalai Lama is Nick Cage in that plane scene with the undercover fed in the opening in Face Off.

Steve D

Imagine the historical artifacts this freak has that even HE knows would be a bridge too far for the parade of kiss assess he entertains on a weekly basis.

Chris

Yo libs are going to embrace pedophilia to own the commies over this dalai shit

Chris

I don't think his analysis on Hitler gear holds water. Irl German Nazis were just as simple and gormless as Harlan. No need to do the weird historical apologia routine

Chris

This is a good example of why Felix and Matt shouldn't downplay obvious Nazi shit for the lulz, there are kids with unformed world views who come here

Chris

Him and Matt were both practically covering for Harlan here, it was very south park and low brow

Chris

"yeah man the real Nazis had class, they knew why they hated Jews" weird arguable psyop take

etienne

it's not just them tho, the fb comment section on any public art that isn't a classicist realist statue of a dead guy is pretty brutal

Memory Erasing

sometimes kushbomb tries too hard to have the smartest take

ploob

HAHAH!! Occam's Nazi 🤣

nick

not the llama

James Roche

I absolutely agree- Matt's conflated "he's dissimilar to the person of Hitler" with "he's not a Nazi"

Nolan

No one has asked if the kid liked the Dalai Lama sucking his tongue.

etienne

you dont know about Le Mans?

loafman

#actually dragon ball z is based on the travels of a buddhist monk to inda to retrieve the yoga sutras of patanjali

Dee Haytch

Thanks for the outro Chris, been on my mind since the story popped up

MKatieUltra

Hasan showed Hitler’s paintings once and they had nearly correct but just slightly fucked up perspective

John Mitchell

The background music is a nice touch! It gave me a great idea! Every other Tuesday, you guys should put out the show in video format with cool trance indie background music and on the video have swirling colorful fractal patterns, some great kaleidoscope patterns and pulsing multicolor geometric shapes. Combine that with an online portal where you sell 'Hog tabs" and give us all a new way to 'connect' 'tune-in' and 'squeeeee' . . . maybe some special backwards-masking to troll the alt-right. . .

Breakaway

I know the Le Mans 24 hour race, but I don’t know what ELMS or Formula Renault 1.6 and the like are.

Bobi Jon-son Kenobi

The Dalai Lama doesn’t just suck tongues, he’s also a cheapskate when tipping his caddies

Eric S

Wait do you think rhcp was saying something from the lama way back then tho? Cause that really hit DIFFERENT

YukiNukem64x

Oh my I wonder what that'll do to the lamas comedy career

T

"Anyone here a squirter?"

Arthur G. Pym

The Tibetan diaspora seething at American ignorance of history. Fuck them they’re losers, they should try being Palestinian if they want the respect of Western leftists

etienne

if I were a billionaire I'd also be a fail driver paying to race in some washout series but I think it's fair to say that only those guys plus a cadre of insanely nerdy F1 watchers care about those

Chris

Anti gay, pro Pinochet cult leader tries to molest a boy in public... Yes it was left wing racism that caused this

Chris

Yeah the boys are sounding like pre 2015 libs who thought Nazis were like comic book characters that didn't exist irl

Chris

At the end of the day, modernism is still too counter culture apparently. Nazi realism fetish is definitely everywhere around us.

Chris

He was acting like calling a Nazi a Nazi was like stepping on lava

Arthur G. Pym

Lmao if think the Dalai Lama is “pro Pinochet” I got a bridge to sell you. As for anti-gay such a huge stretch it can only be disingenuous

Breakaway

Yeah, I bet it’s really fun. I’d give it a shot if I were part of some former imperial family.

Chris

Joking aside, you could make the argument that Thomas' pick was meant to be an insult to black people. He's not an accomplished man at all, he was picked as a token. He's basically judicial Candace Owens from 30 years ago. How is he a replacement for Thurgood Marshall? The idea that someone like Thomas is a good pick to replace TM is also arguably racist.

etienne

you're listening to the cocaine podcast, the lsd podcast is next door on the left

Chris

U just butthurt because you need a sky daddy and now we know eastern sky daddy is just as fake as western daddy

Arthur G. Pym

Ok I’m glad you did some basic googling and realised how embarrassingly facile your comments were Chris. Not sure if “butthurt” is 2018 reddit or 2008 /b/ but it’s insanely cringe either way

Arthur G. Pym

The rest of your comment is such epic atheist energy I bet you read Sam Harris

Grimm

It's already free, and it was freed by Tibetan and Chinese peasants, stay mad feudalist :)

Dan

That’s the kind of thing I can defend - your grandpa TOOK IT from the Nazis, IN THE WAR. This asshole just bought pieces of evil so he could LARP and feel close to that evil. I wouldn’t be surprised if his copy of Mein Kampf is surrounded by a pile of gold teeth or shoes from Dachau, that’s the vibe I get from his picture

Dan

The most charitable way I can read your comment is that Uncle Clarence himself is what a gormless billionaire is collecting. And like Chris said, Thomasis and has always been a middle finger to black people and civil rights in general, he knows it and so does anyone who’s put any thought into it.

Dan

If those two are what passes for normal now we might be fucked as a species

aarinsanity

As you make an Uncle Tom joke towards Clarence Thomas. Pretty derogatory and racist dude!

MinkL0af

Matt is correct that any dad or granddad would have a nazi memorabilia collection if they could. After I became a dad I was absolutely possessed to take my wife's grandfather's copies of Mein Kompf and Lunacy Becomes Us. Just to have. I haven't read them and I will pretend like I'm going to read them until the day that I'm old enough to pass them down to the next dad in line. Like hey, check this out. Book. I get it.

Tyler Sutherland

Jeff Goldblum wasn't Moses in Prince of Egypt you philistine!!!!

Arthur G. Pym

What? My grandparents fled Tibet and my family is living in countries all over the world, having lost their language and culture. A few hundred assholes in India?? You can just Google “Tibetan diaspora” you know

Arthur G. Pym

There are about 200,000 Tibetans in exile in places like the US, Australia, Canada and France

Arthur G. Pym

Also I never said anything about Tibet not being part of China

As a Hindu woman, I can shoot a fireball.
