We’re joined by the creative team behind the new film How To Blow Up A Pipeline (director Daniel Goldhaber, co-writer/producer/star Ariela Barer, co-writer/producer Jordan Sjol & producer/editor Dan Garber) to discuss their work on the movie. Will talks to the crew about adapting the non-fiction book to narrative film, developing characters’ sense of political motivation, the value and nature of propaganda, and of course, bombs.

Then, Felix and Matt join back up  to look at Biden’s recent trip to Ireland, and read from Spiked magazine’s lament of the President’s “woke conquest of Ireland”.

There may be 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/

That’s weird cause I made a “documentary” last night called how to blow a pipe

Isaac Jones

Just saw this movie today. Really enjoyed it, although I didn't find its exploration of the topics at hand anywhere near as compelling as something like First Reformed. Viewed as a sort of heist thriller, it's really solid though, with great performances. Cant wait to listen to this interview at work tomorrow

Calvin Bishop

This was the best episode in years

Ben Zaretsky

Having trouble following this one. Chapo taking a Subject serious is my least favorite chapo It’s like Rodney danger field being cast on svu - just stay in your lane trash the institutions with your wit that’s what a patreon for. I will try and listen to the rest but give me that good Feinstein episode or soMethjng. Anyway no disrespect to the filmmakers I’m sure this is great I just need chapo laughs - oh what about an episode on all the Silicon Valley fraudsters getting rung up - as sorkin once wrote let chapo be chapo

NYCM&AHole

Damn thought this was another Nordstream ep

Jeffrey Miller

Same here. After five minutes I went to find the next part of the episode. It doesn't help that I don't care about climate change. I know it's bad and I want things to be done to mitigate it as much as possible, but it is just not my issue. I have a medical condition where I almost certainly won't be an old man and so far I haven't had any kids so I don't have any skin in the game.

Jeremy

How to Blow up a Pipeline is a crazy good film. Anyone who hasn’t seen it should rush out to do so.

T

I'm gay.

Better than Sorceror

William

Here’s to you, Michael Robinson, Jesus loves you more than you will know

Sam

Anyone in Burbank wanna see this tn

William

Disagree on the utility of serious Chapo but that is why the fast forward button exists.

Tvvvv

Teen party 3

Poppy Chulo

Agreed, the Feinstein episode is the perfect example of Chapo at its best.

T

I hope Will interviews directors as bonus episodes of Movie Mindset. Imagine him interviewing John Carpenter or Paul Verhoeven...

Zach Pierce

Toppa Tha mornin to JOE O’ BIDEN! RonBall had to get that marriage to the lovely CASEY D before he started his run for Congress in 2012. We love it unlike any other has ever loved in the history of the world.

Shiv

love to write an essay about bullies and use trans women as a classic example 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Shiv

my ancestors also demand me to post “In fact, the most glaring cause of the famine was not a plant disease, but England's long-running political hegemony over Ireland.”

Of course

I was hoping to hear Sy Hersh mutter, "let's wrap this up, you goddamn brats".

DaveBMadeIT

Brother you get two episodes every week

Tristan Clark

Absolute fire episode. I'll have to find a theater where it's playing.

Kyle B

Can anyone help me find the actual “it’s Sugar, man” clip?

Gordon Schmidt

The weirdest thing about Spiked! Online's commentary on the Biden visit is the fact that Spiked! used to be an organization called the Revolutionary Communist Party. They were always a bit weird, but they took a sharp turn to the right in the 90s and eventually dropped leftism altogether. The real irony is that they were infamous for being pro-IRA in the RCP days, to the point where some ex-RCP people trying to build a career on the right have gotten in trouble over it- Claire Fox in the Brexit Party, for example. They were also fond of AIDS denial as well as Milosevic, to the point where their journal Living Marxism was bankrupted after a news channel sued them for alleging evidence of the Bosnian genocide they aired was faked. They once had a front page reading; "Serbs: the White N*****s of the New World Order". A very strange group, even by the perverse standards of British Trotskyism

Alal Alal

This is valuable but I think there's something they should be aware of. The painting soup stunt was JustStopOil (not Extinction Rebellion) and that whole project is backed by a Getty heiress. It was almost certainly a case of astroturf antics to make people hate environmental protestors.

Alal Alal

Eat your veggies

Michael S. Judge

Ron DeSantis was married by a doo-wop quartet of racist crow caricatures wearing spats

simplebrute

Will interviewing filmmakers has me excited for the Menaker Mindset series. I don't like it when other podcasts do movie reviews because they just retell the story whereas Will actually brings out something different.

Hudson

If you just listened to the sound of their voices they could've been talking about lawn furniture… couldn't even get through the entire segment

George Lochinski

It sounds from the interview like itll be extremely dope!

J.P. McD.

I think serious Chapo is fine and good sometimes, as is Queen Feinstein Chapo. The only losers here are the ones who clutch their pearls about the latter

kenton

What if there was a movie about being gay with your dad

Aaron Baer

Because you write and produce independent movies all the time dude !!! Sure homeboy !!

kenton

Minute 42:10 to skip movie cast

JV

confusion quest aka disco elysium

Hudson

Don’t be a daft artist fluffer. I’m saying it’s hard for me to get into your project if, when you talk about it,it feels like you’re selling me insurance. If you got a beef with that, I think you know where to stick it

Elliot r

You might enjoy Ari Aster's The Strange Thing About the Johnsons

Nolan

I haven’t heard anything about the east Palestine chemical incident in months.

Nolan

Ron Desantis can’t be president the same way you know a college player won’t translate to the league because of their name.

b-rar

Too afraid to google it to find out when it's playing

Peter Fishbeast

Reading the comments under these episodes is a consistently bad idea

drewb

Britain's upcoming century of humiliation is going to provide some spectacular content for the rest of the world. strap in folks, god knows we deserve it!!

Hudson

Inveterate nerdlingers like yourself suck so much ass so hard it ends making people not want to engage with anything you like

HeyB00B00

Is her hymen already broken ahyuk hyuk hyuk

King Suck

Hats off to Chris for micing up everyone perfectly! I could barely tell the guests were podcasting from inside their own ass it sounded so good!

SoConfused

As a Brit, the captain Tom shit made me so frustrated with this country. For whatever reason, almost everybody just went along with it and didn't see the abject dystopian horror portrayed by a 100 year old doing laps to raise money for the state funded healthcare service in the middle of a pandemic. It's like everyone just expected defeat and were cheering it on. And the media pushing it too just seals my opinion that there is no hope for this country.

Doug Cartel

"bad art tries to proscribe specific things" oh no I disagree, I think the best art ever is when the Flobots just made a rap song that was nothing but listing off everything liberals cared about in 2008 HUMAN NEEDS NOT CORPORATE GREED DROP THE DEBT AND LEGALIZE WEEEEEEEEED

Doug Cartel

im so glad all the Ogres in the UK are pissed about Joe, he's got my vote for that alone as far as their global image goes, it is really insane how they were portrayed as these sort of Anti-Fun Cops in Pirates of the Caribbean when they were maybe a shade less bad than the nazis

Hudson

You can be forgiven for being like 12 years old at least emotionally, and not knowing that historically leftists haven’t always been absolute puss bags quite the contrary

Hudson

Go cry on your emotional support animal

SCB

Movie ep? I'll give it a miss.

Hunter

This shit is ass. Who cares about actor and directors gay opinions. Do us a favor and talk about an actual pipeline being blown up

NYCM&AHole

That’s how they want it

NYCM&AHole

Sy Hersh isn’t gonna give away his sources and they’re not gonna tell chapo who blew Nordstream 2

Jake Zydek

Sixto Rodriguez be trollin' Ronda

Hunter

obviously. My point is that there’s more interesting topics than listening to a group of pretentious art students sucking off their own film

NewTooshFatoosh

Everyone say hi to the fbi/Cia/ oil security contractors in the comments. Hi guys! 🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼

NewTooshFatoosh

Status coup is still doing fantastic coverage on YouTube.

Signal doesn't necessarily use the best encryption methods but it's servers do not store personal data contrary to popular belief. They were subpoena'd in 2021 and wrote about the event here: https://signal.org/bigbrother/central-california-grand-jury/ . There is no back door, the clients are open source and anyone can inspect and test it as they wish. That doesn't mean it's bullet proof. It's subject to the same vectors of attack alternative privacy messenger apps are. Props for providing alternatives though. Encrypted messaging services are better then just plain SMS.

Fucking weird to hear brendon o'neil not in Milo Edward's voice, been 1984 years since that happened

T

Last week or so, a truck carrying toxic dirt from East Palestine tipped over and spilled the dirt all over the road.

J

HELL YEAH this movie was amazing

Jaime Christley

Anyone looking to go further with Clouzot, get on LE CORBEAU, which is also in the Criterion Collection (and so probably on the channel). Clouzot was one of the angriest sonofabitches ever to do it but his films are incredible and engrossing, all the same. It's from 1943 and thus made under the Nazi occupation, and produced by a German production company, which after the war led people to conclude that Clouzot was making anti-France propaganda for fucking Goebbels or whatever, to which, if you watch it now, Clouzot is clearly going Heee hee hoo hoo haha. Won't say anymore, go watch it. Oh one more thing, it's basically the earliest version of "You're getting destroyed in the QT's" except "you" = everyone in town. Take a look at Le corbeau (The Raven), is that..... is that the Twitter bird? A Clouzot deep dive is good for whatever ails you: he made an ACAB antihero movie called QUAI DES ORFÈVRES in 1947 after getting busted out of movie jail; the o.g. DIABOLIQUE, accept no substitutes, LA VÉRITÉ in 1960 which is basically "What if Brigitte Bardot's absolutely incredible tush ruined everyone's life around her, including her", and a bitter love story called MANON, in 1949, that, you guessed it, ends badly for everyone. I love this fucking guy.

I Let the Dogs Out. Me, Me, Me, Me.

The interview piqued my interest. I'll check it out. Anyone here ever read Monkey Wrench Gang by Edward Abbey? Similar vein to what they made, it sounds like. It was written back in the 70s when the stakes were (relatively) lower than they are now. A bit on the cartoonish side compared to Pipeline. But it's an engaging read nonetheless.

vermouth

that movie looks like garbage lmao wtf

Do Golems Dream of Ceramic Sheep

He didn't even decry "the chattering classes of this once great nation" or the "Islington Intifada" once. Almost feels like watching one of the movies Airplane! was based on and being disappointed because it wasn't funny

Kyle B

Bless you.

Ben Zaretsky

Okay my bad. I don’t want that either. Just Can’t a guy just be Homer Simpson some time and bang on his tv when he wants it to be funnier?

DotsTheHero

I'm gonna be frank here. If America actually did destroy the Nordstream, which they probably did, then good. It's probably the one good thing the CIA has ever fucking done. Fuck Russia, and fuck their war, and fuck Germany for making dealings with them.

William

Lol so secure in your opinions that you have to reply to everyone who disagrees

Roger Peet

The colcannon communists of County Cork are at it again

the Tyrranical Trans of Tottenham

Poppy Chulo

Don't apologize to the faggot version of Buster Bluth above you.

NewTooshFatoosh

Are you saying that art cannot be an important medium? Id argue that it’s our only viable way of reaching the masses in this media landscape. I’m all for radicalizing the libs, and movies like this one will probably reach them.

etienne

go read jalopnik and vice mag they're all over it. Aaron Gordon is probably the best transpo journalist in the biz rn

Nasai

Why do you listen to this podcast lmao

Jaime Christley

This columnist needs to be hanged from a flagpole by his undies. I was batting my ears like a dog during 4th of July fireworks

Jaime Christley

I was like Captain Haddock at the opera, just slapping my own head, perplexed, in agony, helpless.

Matt Pasker

Joe Biden's penchant for shitting on the Brits is his best quality.

Aaron Baer

Great name for yourself.. just f****** awesome

Cameron

I wonder how much they paid to sell their mid movie on the show

Conor Mcvarnock

Yep, the origins of Sp!ked is buck wild, worth doing a deep dive on. Look up Frank Ferudi.

Paul F. Holzfäller

I’m pretty sure I know why Ron didn’t want any Disney characters at his wedding. He knew his bride would immediately get on all fours for Gaston. Every orifice open for business right then and there.

james

Boooooooringggggg

etienne

listen to Antifada episode 93 for a an excellent deep dive 'sode on Sp!ked Magazine and Trashfuture in general for more Brendan O'Neil related content

John Leavitt

Cam is a really good low budget horror about being on the computer

etienne

I'm sure this guy has very good and nuanced take on ecoterrorism and shit but saying that conservatism has a long history of conservationism is clown to clown communication. I understand that he needs to appeal to clowns to spread the message but it's a clown statement

C. Andrew

Make a 10 minute YouTube DIY instructional video plz I don't wanna watch a whole movie.

J.P. McD.

You are absolutely not going to “radicalize the libs” with movies

J.P. McD.

I wish the boys took Matt’s “Goofy standing next to Ron in a full tuxedo” premise of Disney characters in the bridal party and ran with it

Breakaway

I was thinking about Ed Abbey during this interview. The Monkey Wrench Gang is a good read. Abbey was a great at writing chases and action scenes. I haven’t seen the film yet, but the part in the interview about making the characters have different backgrounds and politics sort of reminded me of the Monkey Wrench Gang, too.

Ernst Toller

How much funding do you think it takes to throw soup on a painting?

Gulb

Seems weird that they felt the need to do such an unequivocally good act in secret. Does the US not want other countries to know they are fighting the evil Putin? Why do you think they aren't claiming responsibility?

B2B Commuter

It wasn’t so much a massive release of gas that will undoubtedly exacerbate the warming of the planet as it was a fart on hecking Putin’s pillow, hopefully it gave him pink eye 😜

AbeLinkin

Best take in the comment section, per usual

AbeLinkin

Until one clicks

Michael

It was a great film (and the book is good too). Not that much ideology in it if you choose to ignore it; just pretend it's Reservoir Dogs but everything goes right

Noah Riffe

Nightmare blunt rotation is a group of academic indie filmmakers

DotsTheHero

Simply because for as long as it's obvious America did it, but with little evidence, it doesn't attract or incentivize denunciation by the international community. The greenhouse toll as far as global warming is concerned is no worse than what a large city produces in a month. You better believe if during the Iraq War there were countries subversively crippling the US economy with targeted attacks to limit their capacity to murder people abroad with its military that I'd have been cheer leading that aswell.

Danny

It’s a flawless, white knuckled heist movie. I just don’t know if I would look to it for sound political strategy.

Alal Alal

Does being low cost somehow make it sincere?

Andrew Cross

fuck, this movie needs a release in my stupid-ass country

Alexandr

Okay, I stopped it. You good now buddy

Alexandr

Also Disco Elysium

Shauna Seroquel

😻😻😻Even The Murderer Lives at Number 21 is solid, he was such a goddam pro, right out the gates.

YukiNukem64x

David Bowie was so disrespectful, didn't even know his rank, what a disgrace.

YukiNukem64x

I just came here to say that dumping jetfuel on a drone is a war crime. Unequivocally.

David Andrews

The interview was dull and too long but the last 30 minutes was great.

Matthew

Thank you David

The five trends within the dirtbag left (2016-2021) goes as follows: 1. Bernie/DSA 2. Epstein 3. Tradcath-curious 4. JFK/911 5. Anti-anti-Bidenism. I’m ambivalent to this development, as radicals/progressives always are brought into the Democratic Party fold eventually. This is a tradition that goes back to William Jennings Bryan.

J.P. McD.

I solved the Babel fish puzzle and it’s not that hard tbh

Jim from Fond Du Lac

48:30 I was actually within like 10 feet of Michael Higgins before as he was switching over to another train, he’s short af and pretty nice in person

Pgh

Night Moves is another good eco terrorism movie about blowing shit up

Peacock Jive

Yerr either commy or fash You smell fash ta me

etienne

my mans came to term with the fundamental emptiness of doing comedy entertainment pundit politics and his reaction is to yell at the show to tell it to become better. the fundamental atomization of late stage capitalism etc etc bla bla

Yup

damn, first time I've taken the chapo intelligence affiliation seriously

saysthemachine

remember kids, anyone who asks you to, or tries to motivate you to commit crimes, especially crimes of a political nature, is a fed.

Psych-O-Sonic 99

I believe there should be an autonomous working class movement in the US, but I know that probably won’t be happening anytime soon. Draw your own conclusions.

Dude, I’m a patron. I didn’t “yell at the show”, or say anything really negative about it.

in the wise words of Dave Mustaine: "If there's a new way, I'll be the first in line; but it better work this time

All you want is a new way to get your boy pussy turned out. Well, the working class wants more, friend.

Is Spiked! a good or bad name for a Trotsky group?

Demented Avenger

Chapo, dig into Julie Burchill, the one who apparently coined the term "cry bully." She's a fruitcake on the level of Rod Dreher.

You're trapped in the eternal present.Wildlife conservation and restoration has been funded through the sale of fishing and game licenses forever. The Wildlife Restoration Fund is financed via excise taxes on firearms. Maybe look into this stuff, how it emerged. Or if you're still trapped in the present, ask yourself how the NRA probably views the excise taxes on firearms, and go and look up what they say about them.

Logan

Your comment is ho theory in action

Conor Meaney

Irelands GDP is highly distorted by multinational corporations tax arrangement there - so GDP per capita isn't really an intelligible number in terms of average wealth/incomes. They developed a thing called 'GNI*' - modified Gross National Income which aims to eliminate these distortions, which makes Irelands 'GDP per capita' more like 2/3's of the standard figure. Still pretty high but not in the top 5/10 worldwide.

Tristan Clark

Have on great guests that make a film about direct action and talk about important parts of not getting caught. Smooth brain commenters: these guys are for sure feds.

Robert Calcagno

Have John Carpenter for an interview but also have Felix on to derail the conversation where him and John talk about Halo lore for thirty minutes

Will

great interviewing by Will. really compelling questions and answers, just wanna say thanks for the good work - this is what i wanted to hear after seeing and loving the movie

One of those dudes was def playing online chess

"In the Mouth of Madness" is a gem.
