I love women please upvote

This will be the best monologue audition any actor has ever performed

Matt said "the breast and brightest" 👀

Mickey Foley

As a Minnesotan, I don't cotton to this anti-Mall of America propaganda.

Jon

"Learning how to behave through the most extreme examples on social media and coming to expect the same behavior from themselves" perfectly describes the Chapo Patreon comment section

Will Thompson

Wild that Rudy was once arguably the most beloved person in the entire country

Negative Affirmations

I was a Thin Red Line evangelist as a kid. Everyone loved Saving Private Ryan, but I was like "wtf are you talking about? Why would you want to watch some Spielberg blockbuster when you could see a morally ambiguous, avant-garde, Terrance Malick book adaptation about a battle in the pacific theater?"

Corey Reynolds

My Prediction: Joe Brandon dies a month before the 2024 election (Just like RGB in 2020). trump easily wins against Kamala and he pardons himself. He never see’s a day in jail. The worst/dumbest outcome is the most likely to happen. Also, the 2016 “America is already great” democratic talking point is happening again with “the economy isn’t that bad”.

The Fine Art Revolution

Yeah I don’t know what they mean about duplicate stores tbh. If anything you could fault it for lying about size since there’s a six flags inside

Merfius

Madd Matt is back and I love it!

Dan

Fuck you bc now I’m not going to be able to get this nightmare fuel out of my head. Funny? Yes but only in an “it’s either laugh or cry oh god this is real wtf” kind of way.

Dan

This country truly has a lot to answer for.

Erik

Matt’s Paul Bunion story absolutely killed me 😂

Zach Pierce

Rudy, is it ok for our nation to laugh again? (Cuz we already all are!)

Scot Forsythe

These mfers still “Xeeting”😂

Waffle Poet

Parting the Red Sea as in going down on someone on their period? Funniest theory I heard.

THEKILLERWHALE

Roth and then Krueger. Stop playing footsie and give them permanent mics!

Colorbomb

really fun episode :)

Hudson

Yeah, what is the month of August if it's not for taking tons of degenerate naps and listening to Matt spit fire about the profound idiocy of lib dems ?

Alec

MATT

D.O.D

That, and his drawn out pronunciation of "LIZARRRD-SSS". Our beautiful Boy has been MVP for some time now but he's really ascended in recent times

Conner

People throwing shit at musicians isn’t new at all, just throwing phones is. Used to be bras and shirts and shit

THEKILLERWHALE

Seriously. I saw the Doobies at the Hollywood Bowl back in 79 and I threw my mother's ashes on stage. Nothing new about any of this.

Dan

Not a WW2 movie, but I watched "1917"with my step-dad, and he was getting mad at it the entire time for inaccuracies.

Dan

If I remember correctly, Nickleback got a shoe thrown at them in Grande Prairie, Alberta in the early 00's. I think that they've had stuff thrown at them every time they go to GP.

if we have to sacrifice felix to have this matt more often...

Hot Matt shit @ 26:22

I had the same experience on that log ride at camp snoopy, I swear he also would say something before you exit the cave and go down the big drop

Julie Baxter

My Physical Therapist saw Oppenheimer last weekend and she had to leave the theater because they showed his full frontal Naughty Bits. For some reason. Yes, NYC just shut down all intake shelters. Please show Flatbush Cats some love because they are almost through building an affordable spray/neuter clinic and it's just about ready to go. Also affordable vet services will also get online soon. Whatever we can all do to make this a national model to be emulated. It's a brilliant, it's effective, and gets to the root of the problem. Toss as much as I can, and I'm in fucking Texas. Plan to make them a substantial bequest if this stupid fucking cancer takes me out but don't plan on going anywhere anytime soon. Eric Adams hates kitties. Fuck him up by helping out Flatbush. Thanks for the reminder Kathyn, meant to check out your Discourse earlier!

Bella DeBall

*pushes glasses up nose* well actually if you jumped off the side of the boat at Omaha Beach when the ramp went down you'd probably end up being dragged down to the bottom of the Atlantic by the insane amount of equipment they had those guys carrying

That was more an expression of admiration though. This seems like attention-seeking TikTok behavior, people throwing phones and drinks and shit

“Trump is a threat to democracy!” IS the platform at this point. They will run anything or anyone propped up with that. Watch when Trump isn’t in the picture, it will be “This person is the New Trump!”

Another great episode call my daughter was just on a plane three days ago,where a guy wouldn’t turn down his music on the phone and they were forced to have to go back to the terminal and kick him off the plane and thus miss her flight from Phoenix to LA. By five minutes. Love your social credit ideas and the Jubilee. Great ideas.

SF

The middle section of the ep was a good corrective to Will Stancil’s deranged meltdown on Twitter about how the left are ungrateful and not giving Biden enough credit for how good everything is

I once saw Dick Dale live, he was past 90 years old.. someone threw a beer at him. I was so goddamn pissed

Zach H.

He wouldn’t even have to pardon himself. He just appoints a new DOJ head who drops all federal charges, he ignores the state cases bc they can’t force him to do anything while in office.

Maxwell Harkness

Rudy also is apparently just getting loaded every single day, so it might be him being that kind of boozer.

Damen Irving

On the ww2 movie topic, how come there isn’t a feature or miniseries about FDR and his administration? Seems like there’s a ton of material to work with but he’s like an off-limit topic

I was saying boo-lania

Nevermind the countless bottles thrown and almost everyone every show until the invention of plastic bottles

Jonathan G

Chapos having fun? Get back to work!!

Null_null

It’s gonna be gruesome Newsom and that could be even worse. I think left unsaid in this conversation is the fact that both AOC and Bernie have also put their faith in Biden via bent-knee endorsements 2 years out. Why aren’t we yelling at them instead of Blue Maga Twitter?

Ahmed Razick

Based on hell of presidents to keep his achievements quiet. Don't want people asking for a new WPA or a president that actually packed the courts to counter the SC trying to block the New Deal. Biden needs excuses to not get more done. We don't learn enough about real US History. Most want reform but technically we are living in the backlash to the New Deal. The reform already happened and it has failed. Time to revolt.

Maxwell Harkness

it's a vast overrating of how much people love "democracy" as is.

B2B Commuter

ignoring that Matt has been consistently more wrong than right about electoral politics for at least the past seven years, he doesn’t even have a candidate that he can point to as stronger than an incumbent Biden would be, simply handwaiving it away as a “yp” the guy can make a good history podcast but the money and Californian sun has rendered him out of touch with the working class and college towns that he came out of.

Joseph Nicol

When Matt gets all huffed up I just want give him a big hug

Kvvvy

To go with the rigid social credit system, I propose a jobs program for annoying people. I'm talking Moms for Liberty types, various Q Anon weirdos, lifestyle vloggers and similar grifters, people who protest at Disney or Targets for being too gay, etc. These people cleary have too much time on their hands. Therefore, they will be provided *full-time* employment that keeps them AWAY from their phones, the internet, each other, and crucially the general public. Furthermore, I propose an additional carrot/stick to the outlined behavioral program: if you are annoying online or in real life, your phone is taken a way for a period of time. If American adults want to act like children, they will be treated like children.

Kvvvy

Yeah I imagine the way to survive Omaha beach, or any beach landing for that matter, was to not be in one of the first boats lol

New! Cat! New! Cat! New! Cat!

Nathan

Yeah, Harris is the natural replacement to Biden and no one thinks she’s beating trump. If it’s not Harris, you’re going to piss off the black people you need to win. Biden might not be the best option but it’s not so clear there’s a better option that Matt can dismiss concerns about trump taking power again as insincere.

Jessica Rios

Not me. I want to go bust shit up with him.

Jessica Rios

Lots of people are. (Yelling at them)

Jessica Rios

Even his cush vlogs have been tame. I guess being in love takes the fire out of him. Happy for him though!!!

Mark Schneider

Well, Courser if no one cares about the "pro-Labor" Biden admin breaking strikes, then we are all doomed. (I still care, for the record.) And Nathan, most black people I know don't even consider Kamalala "black", she may be able to claim it viz DNA, but culturally she don't fit the bill. (I was told I was dark-skinned when young coz mom's family were Jewish; but my parents were ultra-conformist wanna-be Normies so I went to a "Christian" church-- I never claimed to be Jewish since I had no exposure to it, a maternal grandma's "Jewish last name" doesn't make you a Jew!) Kamalala's no more black than I am a Jew, identity is more culture than race in many cases!!

Bella DeBall

yep. being unfortunate enough to be in the first boats to hit the beach is why the National D-Day Memorial is in Bedford, Virginia.

Nathan

I actually think stancil is okay, but he’s wrong here. His argument is that personally, most people’s well being is fine or good but the narrative they have of the economy through the media is bad. But, polling shows people aren’t personally doing well. https://www.federalreserve.gov/publications/files/2022-report-economic-well-being-us-households-202305.pdf It’s weird stancil is dying on this hill because one of the points he often argues is dems shouldn’t focus on kitchen table stuff. Dems should talk about abortion where 75% of people agree with them.

good matt rant.

Boggs

Rage Matt is back, baby!

evrokrem blok

Katherine is great she should be one more often

Jon

It is a YP. There's no clear alternative for Democrats because they committed to Biden over the equally shitty but younger candidates. And there are no progressive "rising stars" because the party actively fundraises against them and undermines them. Democrats made this shit-filled bed. They get to sleep in it.

B2B Commuter

The bed where they just over performed in yet another special election the night Matt’s rant came out? The alternatives all lined up behind Biden early because they realize the democratic base values electability over anything else and they know they can’t present a more compelling argument than incumbency.

baby babi

was planning on throwing some coca-cola life and flavored vape cartridges on stage for the boys in canada. nvm.

bruce

The other fact that gives lie to the hysterical liberal thing about Bernie bro splitters and leftist saboteurs or whatever is that the Democrats have literally lost one popular vote since 2000 and the Republicans have won three times. What are we supposed to do, redraw the maps ourselves?

Tim

One of the best Cush rants of all time. Spot on.

SH

Angry Matt is BACK BABY! Lfg boys

Jon

Most of the people here don't share the good faith you're imputing to the party, or your theory of change--that Dems are doing their best and we just need to elect more of them. If you're trying to convince people to vote blue no matter who, you might want to start somewhere else.

Poppy Chulo

Katherine is definitely my preferred guest, she fits with the show seamlessly.

etienne

the one based thing that Gruesome Gavin did is that he's forcing all of the exclusive bay area and LA rich people enclaves to put up a legit housing plan or get their zoning overturned to the state so he's forcing like Malibu to build soviet plattenbau of rental housing

K H

I give a shit about the railroad strike. You know the fuckin cool thing about a strike though? You don't have to care about it. You just have a complete shut down of vital infrastructure and then you can use that time sitting by candlelight to figure out what you do actually care about, and how maybe that shouldn't be electoral politics but actual workers leveraging the power they innately have over the entire globe.

CJ

Hell yeah we love kath don’t we folks

Sam McManus

Biden is the best we can muster because the Democrats are fundamentally OK with losing. People who actually give a shit shouldn't be

Jacob Nielsen

The best part about the MOA log ride that wasn’t mentioned is that, directly after the Paul Bunyan portion, there’s a ~50 foot drop. Also the ride does not have any seat belts so riders have to hold on to metal bars on either side of the log to make sure they don’t fall out and die.

B2B Commuter

K H, You have a child’s understanding of how things work and how the events your fantasizing about would play out.

T

When you adopted your cat: "I want to own you, officially. Legally, with a document."

Matelda

The points and demerits will be exclusively decided by retail/customer service workers and union members, (K-12 teachers, nurses, and mailmen). Judges appointed to settle point disputes must also be drawn from hourly wage class. This will solve everything.

Lili Mandl

Make Katherine senior misogyny correspondent or something. “I’m snapping” at the end absolutely slew me

Caleb

Love Feral Files. Needs a theme song. Matt rant rocked as well

C. Andrew

Music to my ears...

Ashley Naftule

Matt on that NBA Jams “he’s on fire!” energy today

C. Andrew

As someone right off the strike line in Eire/Wabtech, these guys, union workers who've done nothing but make locomotives for the past twenty years, have not forgotten about Biden. They're still pissed at Clinton and NAFTA. Trust me they remember Biden.

wat

A boy can dream about David Roth taking up Virgil’s mic and Katherine Krueger taking up Amber’s

C. Andrew

And you can fucking cry about the fact that "working people", and by that we mean the working class who didn't go to college to start their job, largely do not like neoliberal democrats and never will because their lives have been made materially worse by their policies. They might have hated HW Bush if he signed NAFTA, it doesn't matter they both would have done that, but what's important NOW IN OUR TIMELINE is that this voter block is distrustful of the Dems and rightfully fucking so, if not completely apathetic to politics as a whole.

Pat M

Landmark episode

Ryan

The movie theater bits remind me of when I saw Triangle of Sadness and two tween girls RAN in 35 minutes (clearly having no tickets), sat in the back of the theater, talked through the entire rest of the first and start of the second acts, but shut the fuck up once the puking scene started for literally the rest of the movie. One of the funniest experiences I’ve ever had in a theater.

CM

I’m saying, damn this one was an instant classic 👍🏼👍🏼

CM

God this was such a good episode

B2B Commuter

Christ man, get your own dick out of your mouth, people who went to college work as well. You can talk about how you and every rough hand isn’t going to vote for him because of this that and the other thing, but it doesn’t change the fact that they’ve over performed in special election after special election with a mix of enough of their old base and the knowledge economy workers that are fueling their domination of suburbs and college towns.

Greg

It's pronounced "Herstory"

Comedy News

Love Felix but this lineup rocks

Nicholas Needham

Great episode! I was laughing and intrigued the whole time. 👍🏻

B2B Commuter

Yes, and what I say is Matt doesn’t know dick about electoral politics and he shouldn’t use Ukrainian flag avi as a way to insult his detractors when he and the show was comically wrong about the invasion.

Of course

I think war may solve all the problems for the elite. There's a push to escalate "Ukraine", and also grab the Chinese province of Taiwan, plus ever increasing sanctions with Russia and China, and now a fresh provocation with Iran. The Glorious Cause of "Trump - the libs' own creation - must now be destroyed" won't be enough, gotta have a war. Not just to "save Biden" (which they don't really care about) but to legitimize and save the system.

Adam Hulst

I took my 3 year old on that ride a couple months ago. She was incredibly frightened and shaking after. I regretted it.

Chris

Hot take: I take January 6th truthers more seriously than Disney adults

Natalie

didn't know anything about this guest, first time hearing her, now i learn she's will's lovely partner. that's so cute. more kath

zach

Weirdly enough I didn’t really think of Oppenheimer as a WWII movie

Midwestern lore, Cushbombs galore. Extremely good stuff. Give me more!!!!!

Reece Coren

this was such a great episode Kath needs to be on more!!!!

Aaron Baer

Frothing Matt and Katherine's bourgeois/ dulciter tones & Will's insight ... A meal fit for a hog indeed !!!!

Marisa

Will plz fund Kath’s unemployed lifestyle so our girl can retire and take bubble baths all day

Snooder87

"grab the Chinese province of Taiwan". Jesus, man.

Declan Hertel

banger ep, one of the best of the year

Tim Mullen

What a rant by Matt. He still has it, folks.

Doug Cartel

Been a while since Matt truly let loose.

Pleasantly surprised that the two episodes without Felix turned out so well.

@katherine for the love of all us girlies u need to be on more episodes😭

J.v.D

today’s broads would rather leave a comment than fight in a war. and for shame

Are you mad about Chapo not being pro democrat party or them not being pro ukraine

Where is it written that a poster cannot fight

Jazminne Haywood

I just got a patreon and this is what’s going on? End. Scene. Where tf is Felix!!!!!??????

Jazminne Haywood

Catharine cool. Unpopular opinion but I was thrilled when Amber left. I felt like she knocked off the vibe. There are a lot of homegirl podcasts out there. If I wanted to hear any of them, I wouldn’t be listening to this just my two. Cents.

October

I want to give him a blowjob. And a sandwich.

Garrat M

So wait? Black face lady got fired from the Post Office? Because if so how the fuck did she manage that? The only real way to get fired from there is to kill someone on a route or attempt to kill your post master.

Of course

True, I was acting a bit like an arrogant American by assuming Taiwan to be a Chinese province. It could be a Special Administrative Region like Hong Kong or an Autonomous Region like Xinjiang. That would be for Beijing to decide. Unless you were trying to make another point.

Iris Allen

I saw the lead singer of Fuel get beamed the face with a shoe in 2003, that just seems like drunk college kid behavior

Matt

As someone who literally grew up a block away from Christman in Manitowoc, I gotta point out that there was a second, even shittier, mall across the street from the mall he mentions. Also some friends of mine in high school once tried (unsuccessfully) to steal the Wrestlefest cabinet from the arcade.

Katherine is funny!

Bill Crotts

I would bet anything Matt knows about that

Kinetics Video

I mean, the article I've posted and talked about the most this week the Freddie De Boer thing about AOC. I think a lot of the subtext to Cornel West's support is ppl giving up on the "progressive wing," maybe even more so than further disillusionment with the DNC.

Kinetics Video

Can't believe there's this much indictment talk in the slop this week. Please either cut this out or one of the Chapos needs to legally change their name to Jon.

Kinetics Video

It is funny after all the yokel-whispering and hand-wringing about the White Working Class they did after Hilary lost they've reconstituted the Party and media apparatus to almost entirely the same posture and front-facing personalities.

Kinetics Video

Episode made it back up to me with the the Snoopy log ride bit. Phenomenal, I now see the true culmination of Chapo is to have it's in dark ride

Episode 679: The jesters are in control. Felix was praised for Normal whites" thesis"

anthony potter

If one was to check out episode 594 - 606. One will hear chapo opinions about pre invasion intel and post invasion crow eating The whole of chapo is pretty anti U.S. military. Why? fucking beats me. In 2023 the US will spend 800 billion on defense. In 2007 fighting 2 wars US spent 572 billion. So there is that.

anthony potter

As for the beloved democratic party. Matt's statements that it is not a political party hurt the most. What has it done in the last 30 years. Signed Nafta, let Republicans steal an election. Let Bush start 2 wars. Elected Obama, made Healthcare shitty. Let bankers continue to do what the fuck they want. Could not pass any kind meaningful gun laws. Not even over the corpses of 19 kids. Let roe fall, let affirmative action fall, let student debt cancellation fall. Diane Feinstein puppetry. Shall I go on?

anthony potter

You want to be pissed at Matt for something. How about not mentioning the 250 million dollars settlement from jp Morgan over jeff epstein. Yep! A quarter of a billion dollars to 100 plaintiffs. Or better yet 100 signed NDAs. And not a fucking peep from chapo when the news broke.
