816 - Streampie feat. Charles Austin (3/18/24)
Episode 1 and Fortune Kit’s Charles stops by the show today to look at a few real life individuals who remind us of E1 characters, including the streamer Destiny, who we’ve all seen clips of getting yelled at by Norm Finkelstein last week. We also check in on New York’s bling bishop, the Stonetoss doxxing, South Dakota Governor Kirsti Noem, and some “new” edgy Christians who like boobs, beer, & swearin’. Finally, Charles brings us some updates from one of Fortune Kit’s favorite guys, the king of “what’s a song that’s made up of notes?” vapid twitter engagement prompts, Eric Alper.

also my wife has changed my twitter password citing mental health concerns so my aspiring social media career is on hold.
Talking fucked up dicks on the pod is a personal attack on me!
Felix has a big problem with North Carolina. This episode, previously clowning on Carrboro and RDU. He thinks it’s a Panera state. It’s a Subway state.
They should’ve cited Destiny as an example of how too much Adderall can make you an insufferable fiend in those recent essays
My stomach is burning from laughing at their songs!
I looked up the Shawn King "Uncensored" event and found it's with Khaled Beydoun 😭 literally a professor at my law school bro
Wait Arthur miller wasn’t killed by police
but Marilyn was
Another banger
That accent is the rare French Newfie that grew up around Mennonites
The Chinese should drop a tactical nuke on NYC
Mennaker you beta tuck that chain
Very much enjoyed this guest!!! Thank you for not making me listen to more than 20 seconds of Eve fartlow's voice
Anybody know which anime club picture Felix was referencing with Big Red?
check out ‘TLO ROLL CALL!’ on YouTube
I saw the Bling Bishop conviction story too. Clergymen have been an easy source of grifters for literal millennia and underprivileged communities make for easy prey unfortunately.
Man, every time I hear about Destiny I can't forget that time his dick pics got leaked and a bunch of his fans posted their own dick pics in solidarity.
The reverse fappening
That Bob Dylan song was weak as hell. Big swing at Randy Newman parodying Dylan, and missing completely
I bought an extra copy on Bandcamp in your name, D.O.D.
Wasn’t Norm being tricked into doing free sex work by humiliating a literal cuckold? I swear I’ve been tricked into that in group chats
Shaun King getting dragged was hard to listen to. Tonedeaf treatment of a beloved figure among much of the Palestinian liberation movement.
Shaun has good takes a lot of the time, but let’s not pretend he’s some kind of saintly figure. Guy grifts a shit ton of money off the left wing media ecosystem, often times in very journalistically irresponsible ways.
I could debate the israeli side better than d3stiny. What a loser.
He “debated” Ben Shapiro also on the Lex Fridman and they basically agreed 75% of the time and unsurprisingly also misrepresented and had a bunch of ignorance about any non-Israeli-through-the-lens-of-Americans perspective.
The most exposure I had to Destiny was when he and the Krassenstein brothers debated a drunken Alex Jones and Glenn Greenwald about Jan. 7. If you liked old 90s crash TV you might be entertained.
Hasanabi gang fuck destiny
@livelaughlove
Y’all should not be hating on bob dylan
What was that song in the middle? The remix of Hotline Bling with someone singing in Arabic?
That song is so fire actually
🔥 ep
Eric Alper sounds like Quiz Boy from Venture Bros
Would love a streamer review especially the kick ones since most of them are being revealed as chomos now.
A
How do you become a non-denominational bishop? There’s no church hierarchy, so I have to assume he just started calling himself that because he thought it meant super-pastor
I listened to all 5 hours in anticipation of a blow by blow analysis by the Chapotry. Now that I hear Will though, I have to concede: it was 5 hours of Benny Morris saying A. There's no genocide B. No one in Gaza is starving C. International law is meaningless D. Human rights organizations are irrelevant. Debate could have been 3 minutes tbh.
Can’t forget too when Mr Borelli kept saying cause you could disingenuously interpret the salo tweet as homophobic it therefore was and Felix told him to stfu lol
I didn’t know about this interaction, how do I find it?
I love Charles
lol I went to College in the town Doug Wilson lives in and that guy legit sucked me off.
I think I remember Felix telling Destiny to shut tf up because he was claiming Chapo was homophobic for the Buttigieg Salò tweet
Pixar’s: SODAS, in a theatre near you!!
Remember when Felix wound up on stream with Destiny way back?? He correctly insulted him and had nothing but contempt for his BS
Alper sounds just like Lorne Michaels
eric alper has dr evil voice
kobes du mez is cool as hell btw, currently using her book jesus and john wayne as a source for my thesis
It’s the droopy accent
male conservatives are the most insecure people perhaps in history, also fartlow remains an absolute worm piece of trash
I'll vote for the first governor to do an ad read for BetDSI and BluChew
Re Alper’s voice, I was thinking Judah Friedlander in AMERICAN SPLENDOR.
This episode crams in the names of the 3000 most famous people in the world right now and what they’re getting up to and none of it rang a bell for me. I felt like I was in an hour long cab ride listening to the Pakistani driver talking with his wife on speaker the whole time. I will never unsubscribe.
Smile Texas = Floss Latino
Does Finklestein mention how Destiny is a cuck?
charles has such a pleasant voice. very jovial sounding guy !
I think the Finklestein debate was amazing because it showed how idiotic debate streamers are, Norm is best known for debunking zionist books that fabricate facts and Destiny in his opening statement called that “cherrypicking” because to a debate streamer, bringing anything that they said more that 5 minutes ago is unfair.
absolutely agree. watching Mr. Bonobo curling up in a ball during any given 95% of that 4 hours while even his debate partner edged away from him was MY kind of cultiral imperialism..
A great episode!! Felix & Charles' japes about how bad Satellite Radio is reminded me that back in 1984 I saw Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper playing live, awesome show (& I later saw Mojo opening for Jello Biafra in S.F about 2017.) Mojo died earlier this year & I looked up his clips on YouTube & saw a promotion he did for his Sirius XM podcast. It was extremely cringe when he said he believed "America is the greatest, most free country in the world" because if you know his music at all you know what a pandering lie that was. "Burn Down the Malls" is not a celebration of US Greatness in the Reagan era. RIP Mojo anyway.
And he died, hilariously, on the Sirius XM Outlaw Country Cruise
Said from Episode 1 & got excited Matt was back smh
“Does it have raunch? I don’t like it when I can’t get my raunch”
Doug Wilson is actually pretty comfortable using all types of slurs. He's also comfortable marrying off convicted child molesters to naive young women in his church, and then feigning ignorance when said child molesters hurt the kids they created with their trad child brides. The dude is a complete twat. His blog is a goldmine for deranged naval gazing.
There's been a dick-sucking incident at the woke-free beer plant.
Goddamnit I love Charles……e1 fucking rules
What is E1? Why do I not know anything. Can someone please hold my hand and explain?
Episode 113: Joe Biden
Will does a shockingly good Finkelstein impression
I feel like if Dylan hears Charles' song it really might kill him. Listening to it, I got a bit queasy and could feel Seeger rolling over in his grave. I can honestly imagine an unironic right wing folk singer having a sticker on their banjo which says "This machine makes fascists" within the next ten years.
asking an AI to draw the stonetoss guy as the doom guy from the first game's box art he's standing on top a pile of his dead fans as he tries to prevent others from destroying the soy factory he's guarding
I run a leftist political satire blog in South Dakota (yes, I am insane to still live here). Covering Noem’s crazy bullshit iceberg is like 50% of my content. In the interest of educating people about the political situation in South Dakota, here are some fun facts. - South Dakota is the only state in the US where having any traces of drugs in your blood is considered felony drug “possession by ingestion” - It’s well documented that our current attorney general endorsed, using forced catheterization in order to gather evidence that someone had used drugs. effectively telling suspects to take a plea deal or we’re going to torture your junk. they once did it to a four-year-old in order to try and convict his parents of drug violations. -our previous Attorney General was impeached because he killed a man with his car and tried to cover it up, but refused to resign. - it’s the second time a high official in South Dakota has killed someone with a car in the last 20 years. - the sunsets here are pretty.
Oh my god. Forced catheterization is horrifying to think about.
Isn't Christmas Island where crabs cover the entire island for their mating season?
Yes, though lately they've been struggling with being devoured en masse by millions of invasive ants.
Intact gang stays winning
Come at King Norm you best not miss
If Charles V called Martin Luther a gaytard, the reformation may never have happened
As soon as you typed this Christman spontaneously smiled
Song on the end is a real bop
Felix: "Is there such a thing as a guy who loves Hamilton, but also is a Trump voter?" Will: "OK, moving on to the next article..." - Will, do not move on to the next article. Let the funny guy talk.
I feel like the guy is Trump himself
also will, a week or two ago you brought up charles portis’ “the dog of the south” and i went out and bought a copy on a whim…might be the funniest book (in terms of laughs per minute) i’ve ever read
Every page is a joy, check out Norwood or Masters of Atlantis next.
Didn’t they test nukes on Christmas Island back in the 50s?
Yup https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Grapple
me and the rest of the war boys pushing over wannabe pinkertons and raiding the soy factory in the woke wars
I will say, seeing Norm yell at that moron streamer did make me feel better about yelling at my family in the past for being heinous.
I thought horny Christianity was just being Italian
Eric sounds like a straight Canadian Truman Capote
Blackberry lemonade sparkling water is 🔥🔥🔥.
When Will mispronounced “ribald” I missed Matt so much 😢
Cooper did the ad because they just made sports betting legal here on Monday. I get maybe 20-30 ads a day for it
Jenny Kominsky!
I saw Hillary Clinton at a performance of Funny Girl on Broadway last year, felt like I had seen a cryptid in the wild
Excellent slop, love some Charles
Will’s camron line was perfect
That music PR guy sounds like Mike Myers as Dr Evil and I respect that you guys either resisted the urge to make that easy comparison or are too unacquainted with Austin Powers to realise, either way good podcasting
I listened to that whole Fridman episode. I enjoyed the lively discussion. ☺️
SLOP SLOP SLOPSLOPSLOPSLOP SLOP SLOP SLOPSLOPSLOPSLOP
Nebraska heads will remember when it was a scandal that Destiny encouraged his fans to work for some longshot candidate for Omaha mayor in 2021. The guy got like 2 percent.
Christians reinforcing gender/sex norms by reducing all interactions between genders to purely sexual, even if it means devolving into pure libidinal frothing at the mouth at borderline pornography
It's either that or have a nuanced and honest program of comprehensive sex and relationships education that values the whole spectrum of the human experience. So heresy
To me the most offensive part of stonetoss is not his abhorrent political beliefs but an art style unapologetically lifted from former in-house somethingawful animator and supposed Huggies enthusiast, shmorky
Christmas Island was until recently the site of a particularly grim refugee detention centre run by Australia. A lovely tropical gulag farmed out to the outer colonial border where time stands still.
Mistuh Bonnelio I rubbed the spines of several library books that I read to her on her clit-o-rus and she called you a moron the entire time!
Granted, they are groundhogs and are about to be killed for food.
Her twin’s name is Empathy.
My daughter’s name is Crisis.
It’s an abstraction.
Destiny is not a name at all.
Mr. Bonnell…you DO realize that Destiny is a girl’s name?
Mistuh Bonnerelli I fucked your wife after reading many books to her.
being a Puerto Rican guy named like Herman Göring-Dirlewanger, being so fat you can’t open your eyes, and having a fucked up dick? pick a struggle brother
I won’t fat shame. I live in Canada, which is just Puerto Rico with massive suburbs.
My gamer name is assalot
North Carolina is awesome
“some “new” edgy Christians who like boobs, beer, & swearin’”. So, Renaissance popes.
I can confirm an ex of mine who turned into a conservative republican absolutely loves Lin Manuel Miranda. She was a theatre girl from an evangelical family
Same, we underestimate the size of that particular demographic at our own peril.
Charles is finally leaving behind those losers at e1 and becoming a real podcasting talent
I’m glad ol’ Benny Morris ended up where he deserves: sitting on the same side of the table with a clown like Destiny.
“30k human shields”
MISTER BONELLI
CHEF BOYARDEE
Destiny famously had a debate with his ex wife on whether or not she was faithful or not live on stream
Holy shit, really?
Do any of you guys know if this guy was warden in superjail?
No, he was voiced by David Wain. Charles definitely sounds like him tho.
Three billion dollars in pesos
Thx, read this exactly along with the music you have reconfirmed my faith in an interventionist god
Didn’t even get a noti I just sensed the slop
Same! All of a sudden my 'slop sense' was throbbing.
It's funny to me that people are sending death threats to a cartoonist in this day and age. And no, I'm not a fan of Stonetoss, in fact I find some of his work abhorrent.
I find it funny too, and I think people should do it more
