chapo trap house in order

Will, Matt, Felix and Virgil wake up in The Zone to take in the election results, process the shock, and accept Bill Mitchell as our new dad. More importantly, we discuss the failures of America’s expert/lanyard class, liberal ass-covering, the impotence and irrelevance of the Democratic Party, and our new purpose and priorities under the coming Trump regime.

Reasons to be scared, reasons for hope, and assurance that we’re still ready to ride with you all every day.

Episode 58 - We Live in The Zone Now (11/12/16)

This is Chapo season 2. Erin Gloria Ryan (@morninggloria) of the Daily Beast stops by to chat about the Hamilton Incident, Trump and Chris Christie's breakup, conservative protest and comedy, and martial arts in the age of Trump.

Also we talk about our latest press clip in the New Yorker, in which Matt, Felix and Will are rendered in watercolor.

Episode 60 - Off-Off-Broadway feat. Erin Gloria Ryan (11/20/16)

A Turkey Day treat for all! Our pal T (@RickyRawls) stops by the Park Slope Mansion to discuss his run-ins with the Anime Nazis/alt-right, their racial narcissism, and how Leon Festinger's "When Prophecy Fails" applies to Democrats after the election upset. We also wonder why Mike Pence even wanted to see Hamilton in the first place.

Here's an interview with T on the alt-right: http://thoughtcatalog.com/daniel-hayes/2016/11/an-interview-with-a-black-man-who-loves-standing-up-to-alt-right-trolls-on-twitter/

Episode 61 - Who Makes The Nazis? feat. @RickyRawls (11/24/16)

Episode 62 Teaser - Do You Hear The Dirtbags Sing

First we talk to Ezekiel Kweku of MTV about his diagnosis of the Democratic Party's failure this year, how they can beat white nationalism next time around, and the Æon Flux animated series. Then the full Chapo team assembles to tackle the book "The Up Side of Down: Why Failing Well Is the Key to Success" by Bloomberg View blogger and chronically wrong person Megan McArdle. It's a horrible dumb book and everyone gets mad at Will for making them read it.
