I'm surprised the Kanye Quest rpg wasn't mentioned in this episode. The game even had a secret ending that tries to introduce you into a real cult and shit.

This episode needs a follow-up, given recent developments.

this podcast will be a relic to a less enlightened time...Kanye is a truly awful talent

it's also that we want our dysfunctional conversations recorded So that other people can see them and then tell us that we were right all along that's the fantasy

"fear and love" is a shoutout to Donnie Darko.

Give *clap* your *clap* money *clap* to *clap* nazis

I'm just imagining Kanye doing a Bob Barker Style PSA "Please remember to have your wolves spayed or neutered."

A man, a hammer, a nail, a door, history. Martin Luther sets off the protestant reformation and lays the groundwork for a century of violence in Europe.

We take a look at the damage to Brasillia and talk about what led up to the moment, plus the coup that brought Bolsonaro to power in the first place.

Episode 264: Lulag Archipelago

We get a taste of the old Trump magic through his beautiful eulogy for one of his most loyal supporters, the wonderful Diamond. Then, we check in with America’s police forces through a(nother) unhinged new Sheriffs movement, and a cop who claims to to be able to discern 911 callers’ guilt through the tone of their voices. Finally, it’s time for a little Game of Thrones theory.

700 - Shine On You Crazy… (1/23/23)

We discuss the increasingly bizarre obsession around “objects” being shot down in the sky, as well as the insane circumstance around the toxic event in Ohio (and we will have more on that later this week). Then, our annual review of the Super Bowl broadcast & advertising spectacle. Finally, we answer your Valentine’s day call-in questions!

And, a note from Felix:

706 - Arrival (2/13/23)

We’re joined by friend of the show Will Sommer to discuss his new book “Trust the Plan: The Rise of QAnon and the Conspiracy That Unhinged America”. We discuss the full shape of the conspiracy/movement now 5 years into its run, its effect on those who follow it, and where it might go from here. As well as all the bizarre cultural references, micro-celebrities & criminals that fill out the movement.

710 - I Believe Mole Children Are Our Future feat. Will Sommer (2/27/23)

We’re joined by wonk whiz-kid @ettingermentum to discuss some of his recent elections analysis. We take a look at how today’s arraignment might affect Trump’s 2024 outlook, the electoral history of transphobia for the GOP, and analyze the art of losing from some recent Democratic stars.

720 - The Demon Way in Hell feat. @ettingermentum (4/4/23)

We cover some breaking 17th century news and look at the race car driving heir to the House of Habsburg, as well as the coronation of King Charles III, for a little modern-day Hell on Earth. Then, keeping with the theme of gratuitous puff-pieces in the Times, we look at “Liz” Holmes attempt to rebrand herself as a gee-shucks everyday mom and family woman ahead of her sentencing for medical fraud. Finally, we catch up on the ever-mounting corruption in the Supreme Court, and what our elected officials will fail to do about it.

730 - The Man Who Would Be King (5/8/23)

Happy holiday weekend, sorry we’re a bit late. To give them credit, the dry boys actually rallied to record as usual on Monday, this time it’s Chris who’s been off grilling and chilling in the woods. Anyway, we’ve got takes on the recent Supreme Court rulings, Twitter’s continued degradation, and drama among the loser nerds behind the DeSantis campaign.

Tickets for our live shows in BOTH Montreal and Toronto available here at https://www.chapotraphouse.com/live

746 - Gordian, Not! (7/4/23)

We’re talking normal guy stuff today, from embracing bronze age masculinity from a certain Pervert, to new perversions from a certain modern masculinity advocate. Also on the docket: Israel loses the Times editorial board, and Matt & Felix are held accountable for their deep state ties and banana crimes.  

CANADA: Toronto is basically sold out, but tickets still available for the Montreal show on Sat. Aug 19. https://www.chapotraphouse.com/live

752 - Guy Stuff (7/24/23)

David J. Roth returns to break down the MLB’s new pitch clock rule, Shohei Ohtani’s amazing season, and the Mets terribl- no, we’re not doing a baseball ep! We’re getting David’s takes on DeSantis’ amazing fail record & disgusting personal habits, the relative retail political strength of the GOP bench, and our need for a new WPA to put conservatives to work creating Broadway 2.
