Update on Show Personnel

Dear Grey Wolves,

After over four years as a co-host, co-producer, and collaborator, Virgil Texas is departing Chapo Trap House in order to pursue other creative projects.

Virgil's contributions to the show over the last four years have been immeasurable and we are truly sad to see him go. Virgil's commentary, interviews, game mastering, and vibes will always be an essential part of Chapo lore and canon. This separation is mutual and amicable and we all wish him the absolute best in developing his podcast Bad Faith and all future projects.

Thanks as always to you listeners for your continued support, we're looking forward to many more great shows in the future.

Virgil can currently be found at Bad Faith at http://badfaithpodcast.com and on Twitter @VirgilTexas.

Semper Games,

Will, Felix, Matt, Amber, & Chris

Last show in LA Virgil spoke once and landed a perfect joke and then was on his phone for the rest of the time. I looked at what he was doing on Twitter during that time and he was answering some Twitter jeopardy bot account. Good for him

Bad Faith really does kind of suck, in the same way that TYT and Twitter generally kind of suck, which is why I think it's going to be a huge success.

Not to be an ass but Bad Faith sucks ass

D
Dan Whittaker · May 25, 2021

Knew there was a split ever since the last episode he was on he was introduced the same way as the guest. Hope he has success in his endeavors, but honestly don't think it's a smart move to throw his eggs in the BJG basket. Yes, she was Bernies National Press Secretary (Also kinda goofed on this), but she also lends credence to grifters like Jimmy Dore and Glenn Greenwald. I tried to give Bad Faith a fair shake but can't listen anymore after the way she disrespected and yelled over Chomsky and Sam Seder.

L
Liz · June 2, 2021

Agree with all of this.

I will never forget virgil steadying his cohost from tipping over during a certain election night stream. A beautiful gesture, to me. The new pod has had some great moments i hope it gets into stride

well, tits.

J
Jon Lyons · May 22, 2021

That sucks, but I get it. Hearing him on Chapo the last year or so and hearing him on Bad Faith it's pretty clear that podcasting is taking a psychic toll on him and he'd be happier in more solitary activities. He was a great addition to the lineup and added a lot to the chemistry but he shouldn't do it if it's grinding on him the way it so clearly was, which I totally recognize as someone who also often feels the same "i don't like that go away i don't want to do that stop talking to me stop trying to make me talk or do things or like things" energy.

W
William Evans · May 22, 2021

Gonna miss Virgil obviously. I tried my best with Bad Faith but the chemistry just doesn’t seem there and podcast chemistry is everything. Virgil felt like he was diametrically opposed to Matt at times but that’s good, you need that. Not sure if the differences strained too much into personal life. Would be unfortunate.

J
Justin · May 22, 2021

That blows, Virgil was the only thing connecting y’all to semi-mainstream reality, not totally relegated to a counter-culture corner of internet nerd. You’ve fucked up by letting him go. I’m guessing the rest of it will come down soon. Fun while it lasted, though.

T

Congrats on the professional, individual, and spiritual growth boys! I love bad faith. Hey anyone know how to level out audio? I can’t hear Virgil and BJG’s mic volume always sounds enhanced x10, then my ears start bleeding

B
BL · May 21, 2021

Honestly, I've been subscribed to bad faith since jump street and it's fine, if kinda boring, and I like BJG, but on the rare occasions when Virgil does speak, he sounds like all the life and humor has been drained out of him. He just hasn't been the same since Bernie went down.

U

As a Brit I’ll miss Virgil because he was the only one who ever questioned whether the right-wing, anti-immigration fuelled Brexit project was actually a good idea unlike you folks who seem to blame the EU for the miners strike, you Morning Star-brain-poisoned Stalinist weirdos! (Joking). (I’m not).

I thought Felix quit the show when he disappeared for like 4 months and made like 2 appearances. I don't listen to Bad Faith, this is vague but I guess the fans have to respect their privacy.

M
Mark Schneider · May 20, 2021

Best to all the show creators, including Virgil with his now announced (de jure, no longer de facto) departure. Life is Change, as Lao Tze noted long ago, so stuff like this happens. 1 of 6 members doesn't break a Gray Wolf movement, so I am still a subscriber who will stick with y'all . . . hope to see Amber start popping in from time to time again as well.

Virgil ruled on the show and continues to rule on his own show. Only sad that I won't get to hear his incredible laugh as often. Looking forward to what comes next.

J
James · May 20, 2021

Looking at these comments and the situation overall, I would say this is very much like the split between the Left and Right Socialist Revolutionaries in Russia after the World War I. It should, of course, be clear which side is which. In this Patreon comment, I will...

Hm. I will definitely be e-mailing Virgil about this, in addition to all other issues and topics related to Chapo Trap House and everything besides Chapo Trap House. Anyway, once they get rid of Amber and Chris it'll be back to the OG dry boys. Honestly I don't know what "dry boys" are and I barely know what "OG" means, but they sure are words that indicate Will, Felix, and Matt.

After there was no mention from him or about him in the 500th episode it was very clear that he was gone and it was not amicable. Unfortunate but life goes on. BUT I WANT MORE AMBER I thought she might’ve gone too. Also Daniel Bessner and Derek Davison all the time

l
lubacious · May 20, 2021

Ridiculous prediction: Chapo are trying to figure out when and how the show will come to an end (my guess is episode 666.) The show started in a very different world and probably lasted longer and demanded more than anyone initially expected. Though awesome, it makes total sense to want to move on to new projects and directions that this podcast doesn't fit with. I hope y'all keep going, but if it's coming to an end in the next couple years, it's been a reliable touchpoint of sanity for a lot of us who never had this kind of media or political discussion in our respective areas. Good luck to Virgil and everyone, whatever might be on the horizon.

J
John Kenney · May 20, 2021

They’re making too much money and having too much fun to let it die

J
JK · May 20, 2021

It's normal for social movements on their ascedancy to attract opportunists motivated by personal gain rather than deep conviction. If and when those movements fail - as the Sanders movement did, which is not surprising or anyone's fault - those opportunists leave. This can be heartbreaking on a personal level because it can lead to a deep sense of personal betrayal, but it's a normal and healthy part of the long term vibrancy of social movements. Life goes on, and on the other side, whatever else, you know who your real homies are.

M
Mizzy · May 20, 2021

Just to let the boys know - I am available, have many excellent opinions and stirring insights, I can impersonate several creatures, mom has been trained not interrupt me when I'm on the computer, I don't get incapacitating tummy aches any more, I can provide lots of references - which actually bizarrely all share the same phone number - but they're definitely not just me doing different voices, I am natural blond which is representation you have flagrantly never really bothered with, I am otherwise completely unemployable so I need some kind of gig in podcasting, I will do whatever demeaning job you most require me too, like spooning tofu & milk into Felix's gaping maws between sets and fetching things from the fridge, I can spell but I don't know how to write an invoice

Brandon · May 20, 2021

This post and the comments depress me. It makes me sad to even support this show and I'm honestly very concerned to think what the show will become over the next 3 years. What is even the point of it anymore? Bernie isn't running again, there's no lefty in government besides him what is the purpose of this show? If it's to be funny then I'm all for it but if you are trying to get clout from other NY podcasts and their listenership by dropping Virgil .. it leaves a bad taste in my mouth, nothing really funny about it

G
GD · May 20, 2021

I figured, but this sucks. I always felt like Virgil tempered Felix’s taking a bit too far/long with a random hilarious interjection. It’s just not the same with WMF, although it’s not as bad as when Will isn’t there. When will isn’t there the show is a mess. Miss you Virgil, he always had the best ‘growing up online’ cultural references, as far as I’m concerned.

C
Christian Johnson · May 20, 2021

Should we e-mail Virgil about this?

t
the lord commander · May 20, 2021

Really looks like there was a split in the party. There is no way to reconcile the arguments made in Matt's vlogs about disengaging and not investing in the spectacle of current politics and the direction Bad Faith takes focusing more on electoralism. I really miss the boys riffing but I don't think we are getting another beltway garage. Semper Gamer.

C
Cole Wenger · May 20, 2021

I hope they get another permanent mic. What I loved about prime era Chapo was the interplay between all the hosts. COVID era Chapo has been too much Will, Matt, Felix over and over. They're great, but mix some shit up now and then.

No, the exact opposite. WMF absolutely crush.

Sucks for Virgil, I wished he'd stay. I tried bad faith but brie is really bad and makes it unlistenable. Edit: brie isn't the worst and does make me laugh sometimes, but her podcast/discourse style (I feel like she starts talking over people and moving the goalposts when she's losing an argument, and contradicts herself sometimes) just isn't for me.

Charles Feagain · May 20, 2021

It doesn't mean the show is over. It means the direction the majority of the show wants to go was the not the same direction he did. Some of the best content has been produced in the last year. We should wish our comrade the best in his new endeavors. Our portion of this society is too small not to be at least loosely united

M

ScorPWNok · May 20, 2021

It has always seemed to me like more than any of the other guys Virgil really wants to be taken "seriously", and I always figured he might be thinking of Chapo as a springboard to get the chance to do something "real". Let's see how that works out for him!

He’s been on the show more than Amber over the past year. I wonder how that works in regards to pay. Like were they both effectively getting their usual cut despite being busy with other projects and rarely providing content for the show or were they on some kind of understood hiatus?

Virgil's commentary has long been very technical and electoral. With the direction the show has gone, it's not surprising to see him slowly work his way out. We will always love Virgil, it's been a great run!

J
Joshua Baker · May 20, 2021

Great point. His thing always seemed to be focused on elections which was cool. I hope he gets back into that given the inconsistent quality of Bad Faith which has pushed some bizarre ideas like FTV as if it’s October 1917. I really enjoyed his electoral analysis with Sam Seder.

I loved Chapo before and I love it now, but the vibe definitely changed after Bernie was out again in 2020. Before that, national-level electoralism was still an earnest/hopeful topic on the show, and now it's not. Matt especially has made his thinking on that clear, but I respect and appreciate that Virgil still feels those convos are worth having even now (which is why Bad Faith is often a nice listen imo)
