In the inaugural episode of the Chapo Trap House Podcast, Felix Biederman (@ByYourLogic), Matt Christman (@Cushbomb), and Will Menaker (@willmenaker) discuss logical fallacies and take a sideways glance at a wacky week in US politics that saw Bernie win Michigan, Hillary support the Contras and Reagan's AIDS policies, and Trump getting kicked out of Chicago. We also game out the possible post politics career of Marco Rubio and pledge our support to Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. All this plus much, much more.

​Will and Virgil peel back the curtain to give an intimate backstage look at their recent media hit with Jesse "The Body" Ventura on RT.* They're then joined by political scientist David Faris to discuss his book "It's Time To Fight Dirty". Faris out lines all the ways a slim democratic majority could and should shortcut norms and the constitution to build enduring power, while Will and Virgil supply all the reasons they'll probably be too chicken to actually do so. Finally, a reading from the good book.
