724 - Pipe Lines....Blow Awaaaaay feat. How to Blow Up A Pipeline (4/17/23)
We’re joined by the creative team behind the new film How To Blow Up A Pipeline (director Daniel Goldhaber, co-writer/producer/star Ariela Barer, co-writer/producer Jordan Sjol & producer/editor Dan Garber) to discuss their work on the movie. Will talks to the crew about adapting the non-fiction book to narrative film, developing characters’ sense of political motivation, the value and nature of propaganda, and of course, bombs.
Then, Felix and Matt join back up to look at Biden’s recent trip to Ireland, and read from Spiked magazine’s lament of the President’s “woke conquest of Ireland”.
There may be tickets left for the late show of our screening of John Carpenter’s “In The Mouth of Madness” at the Roxy Cinema on April 27th, come thru. Will and Hesse will be speaking at both screenings: https://www.roxycinemanewyork.com/screenings/chapo-trap-house-movie-mindset-presents-in-the-mouth-of-madness-35mm/

"In the Mouth of Madness" is a gem.
One of those dudes was def playing online chess
great interviewing by Will. really compelling questions and answers, just wanna say thanks for the good work - this is what i wanted to hear after seeing and loving the movie
Have on great guests that make a film about direct action and talk about important parts of not getting caught. Smooth brain commenters: these guys are for sure feds.
Irelands GDP is highly distorted by multinational corporations tax arrangement there - so GDP per capita isn't really an intelligible number in terms of average wealth/incomes. They developed a thing called 'GNI*' - modified Gross National Income which aims to eliminate these distortions, which makes Irelands 'GDP per capita' more like 2/3's of the standard figure. Still pretty high but not in the top 5/10 worldwide.
Chapo, dig into Julie Burchill, the one who apparently coined the term "cry bully." She's a fruitcake on the level of Rod Dreher.
Hi Mr FBI!🤗
sort of sort of sort of sort of sort of sort of a sort of
🍑💨
remember kids, anyone who asks you to, or tries to motivate you to commit crimes, especially crimes of a political nature, is a fed.
snoozer
damn, first time I've taken the chapo intelligence affiliation seriously
Night Moves is another good eco terrorism movie about blowing shit up
48:30 I was actually within like 10 feet of Michael Higgins before as he was switching over to another train, he’s short af and pretty nice in person
The five trends within the dirtbag left (2016-2021) goes as follows: 1. Bernie/DSA 2. Epstein 3. Tradcath-curious 4. JFK/911 5. Anti-anti-Bidenism. I’m ambivalent to this development, as radicals/progressives always are brought into the Democratic Party fold eventually. This is a tradition that goes back to William Jennings Bryan.
Yerr either commy or fash You smell fash ta me
The interview was dull and too long but the last 30 minutes was great.
Thank you David
A NATION ONCE AGAIN
fuck, this movie needs a release in my stupid-ass country
Nightmare blunt rotation is a group of academic indie filmmakers
It was a great film (and the book is good too). Not that much ideology in it if you choose to ignore it; just pretend it's Reservoir Dogs but everything goes right
I wish the boys took Matt’s “Goofy standing next to Ron in a full tuxedo” premise of Disney characters in the bridal party and ran with it
I'm sure this guy has very good and nuanced take on ecoterrorism and shit but saying that conservatism has a long history of conservationism is clown to clown communication. I understand that he needs to appeal to clowns to spread the message but it's a clown statement
You're trapped in the eternal present.Wildlife conservation and restoration has been funded through the sale of fishing and game licenses forever. The Wildlife Restoration Fund is financed via excise taxes on firearms. Maybe look into this stuff, how it emerged. Or if you're still trapped in the present, ask yourself how the NRA probably views the excise taxes on firearms, and go and look up what they say about them.
Cam is a really good low budget horror about being on the computer
listen to Antifada episode 93 for a an excellent deep dive 'sode on Sp!ked Magazine and Trashfuture in general for more Brendan O'Neil related content
Boooooooringggggg
I’m pretty sure I know why Ron didn’t want any Disney characters at his wedding. He knew his bride would immediately get on all fours for Gaston. Every orifice open for business right then and there.
"The Apple Pie Initiative" is my favorite Bluegrass jam band
I wonder how much they paid to sell their mid movie on the show
sp!ked is horseshoe theory in action.
Your comment is ho theory in action
Joe Biden's penchant for shitting on the Brits is his best quality.
I was like Captain Haddock at the opera, just slapping my own head, perplexed, in agony, helpless.
This columnist needs to be hanged from a flagpole by his undies. I was batting my ears like a dog during 4th of July fireworks
I'm gonna be frank here. If America actually did destroy the Nordstream, which they probably did, then good. It's probably the one good thing the CIA has ever fucking done. Fuck Russia, and fuck their war, and fuck Germany for making dealings with them.
Lol
that movie looks like garbage lmao wtf
It’s a flawless, white knuckled heist movie. I just don’t know if I would look to it for sound political strategy.
The interview piqued my interest. I'll check it out. Anyone here ever read Monkey Wrench Gang by Edward Abbey? Similar vein to what they made, it sounds like. It was written back in the 70s when the stakes were (relatively) lower than they are now. A bit on the cartoonish side compared to Pipeline. But it's an engaging read nonetheless.
Great name for yourself.. just f****** awesome
Anyone looking to go further with Clouzot, get on LE CORBEAU, which is also in the Criterion Collection (and so probably on the channel). Clouzot was one of the angriest sonofabitches ever to do it but his films are incredible and engrossing, all the same. It's from 1943 and thus made under the Nazi occupation, and produced by a German production company, which after the war led people to conclude that Clouzot was making anti-France propaganda for fucking Goebbels or whatever, to which, if you watch it now, Clouzot is clearly going Heee hee hoo hoo haha. Won't say anymore, go watch it. Oh one more thing, it's basically the earliest version of "You're getting destroyed in the QT's" except "you" = everyone in town. Take a look at Le corbeau (The Raven), is that..... is that the Twitter bird? A Clouzot deep dive is good for whatever ails you: he made an ACAB antihero movie called QUAI DES ORFÈVRES in 1947 after getting busted out of movie jail; the o.g. DIABOLIQUE, accept no substitutes, LA VÉRITÉ in 1960 which is basically "What if Brigitte Bardot's absolutely incredible tush ruined everyone's life around her, including her", and a bitter love story called MANON, in 1949, that, you guessed it, ends badly for everyone. I love this fucking guy.
😻😻😻Even The Murderer Lives at Number 21 is solid, he was such a goddam pro, right out the gates.
HELL YEAH this movie was amazing
Fucking weird to hear brendon o'neil not in Milo Edward's voice, been 1984 years since that happened
He didn't even decry "the chattering classes of this once great nation" or the "Islington Intifada" once. Almost feels like watching one of the movies Airplane! was based on and being disappointed because it wasn't funny
Signal doesn't necessarily use the best encryption methods but it's servers do not store personal data contrary to popular belief. They were subpoena'd in 2021 and wrote about the event here: https://signal.org/bigbrother/central-california-grand-jury/ . There is no back door, the clients are open source and anyone can inspect and test it as they wish. That doesn't mean it's bullet proof. It's subject to the same vectors of attack alternative privacy messenger apps are. Props for providing alternatives though. Encrypted messaging services are better then just plain SMS.
Everyone say hi to the fbi/Cia/ oil security contractors in the comments. Hi guys! 🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼
Sixto Rodriguez be trollin' Ronda
This shit is ass. Who cares about actor and directors gay opinions. Do us a favor and talk about an actual pipeline being blown up
Sy Hersh isn’t gonna give away his sources and they’re not gonna tell chapo who blew Nordstream 2
Movie ep? I'll give it a miss.
im so glad all the Ogres in the UK are pissed about Joe, he's got my vote for that alone as far as their global image goes, it is really insane how they were portrayed as these sort of Anti-Fun Cops in Pirates of the Caribbean when they were maybe a shade less bad than the nazis
"bad art tries to proscribe specific things" oh no I disagree, I think the best art ever is when the Flobots just made a rap song that was nothing but listing off everything liberals cared about in 2008 HUMAN NEEDS NOT CORPORATE GREED DROP THE DEBT AND LEGALIZE WEEEEEEEEED
As a Brit, the captain Tom shit made me so frustrated with this country. For whatever reason, almost everybody just went along with it and didn't see the abject dystopian horror portrayed by a 100 year old doing laps to raise money for the state funded healthcare service in the middle of a pandemic. It's like everyone just expected defeat and were cheering it on. And the media pushing it too just seals my opinion that there is no hope for this country.
David Bowie was so disrespectful, didn't even know his rank, what a disgrace.
Hats off to Chris for micing up everyone perfectly! I could barely tell the guests were podcasting from inside their own ass it sounded so good!
Is her hymen already broken ahyuk hyuk hyuk
MAKE IT A DOC YOU COWARDS
Make a 10 minute YouTube DIY instructional video plz I don't wanna watch a whole movie.
Britain's upcoming century of humiliation is going to provide some spectacular content for the rest of the world. strap in folks, god knows we deserve it!!
Reading the comments under these episodes is a consistently bad idea
Go cry on your emotional support animal
Ron Desantis can’t be president the same way you know a college player won’t translate to the league because of their name.
I haven’t heard anything about the east Palestine chemical incident in months.
That’s how they want it
confusion quest aka disco elysium
Minute 42:10 to skip movie cast
🙏🙏🙏
What if there was a movie about being gay with your dad
You might enjoy Ari Aster's The Strange Thing About the Johnsons
If you just listened to the sound of their voices they could've been talking about lawn furniture… couldn't even get through the entire segment
Because you write and produce independent movies all the time dude !!! Sure homeboy !!
Will interviewing filmmakers has me excited for the Menaker Mindset series. I don't like it when other podcasts do movie reviews because they just retell the story whereas Will actually brings out something different.
Ron DeSantis was married by a doo-wop quartet of racist crow caricatures wearing spats
This is valuable but I think there's something they should be aware of. The painting soup stunt was JustStopOil (not Extinction Rebellion) and that whole project is backed by a Getty heiress. It was almost certainly a case of astroturf antics to make people hate environmental protestors.
How much funding do you think it takes to throw soup on a painting?
The weirdest thing about Spiked! Online's commentary on the Biden visit is the fact that Spiked! used to be an organization called the Revolutionary Communist Party. They were always a bit weird, but they took a sharp turn to the right in the 90s and eventually dropped leftism altogether. The real irony is that they were infamous for being pro-IRA in the RCP days, to the point where some ex-RCP people trying to build a career on the right have gotten in trouble over it- Claire Fox in the Brexit Party, for example. They were also fond of AIDS denial as well as Milosevic, to the point where their journal Living Marxism was bankrupted after a news channel sued them for alleging evidence of the Bosnian genocide they aired was faked. They once had a front page reading; "Serbs: the White N*****s of the New World Order". A very strange group, even by the perverse standards of British Trotskyism
Yep, the origins of Sp!ked is buck wild, worth doing a deep dive on. Look up Frank Ferudi.
Can anyone help me find the actual “it’s Sugar, man” clip?

Brilliant
Absolute fire episode. I'll have to find a theater where it's playing.
love to write an essay about bullies and use trans women as a classic example 😵💫😵💫😵💫
my ancestors also demand me to post “In fact, the most glaring cause of the famine was not a plant disease, but England's long-running political hegemony over Ireland.”
where’s hesse
Toppa Tha mornin to JOE O’ BIDEN! RonBall had to get that marriage to the lovely CASEY D before he started his run for Congress in 2012. We love it unlike any other has ever loved in the history of the world.
I hope Will interviews directors as bonus episodes of Movie Mindset. Imagine him interviewing John Carpenter or Paul Verhoeven...
Have John Carpenter for an interview but also have Felix on to derail the conversation where him and John talk about Halo lore for thirty minutes
Teen party 3
Anyone in Burbank wanna see this tn
How to Blow up a Pipeline is a crazy good film. Anyone who hasn’t seen it should rush out to do so.
It sounds from the interview like itll be extremely dope!
Damn thought this was another Nordstream ep
I was hoping to hear Sy Hersh mutter, "let's wrap this up, you goddamn brats".
Wages of Fear fav thriller of all time
Better than Sorceror
Having trouble following this one. Chapo taking a Subject serious is my least favorite chapo It’s like Rodney danger field being cast on svu - just stay in your lane trash the institutions with your wit that’s what a patreon for. I will try and listen to the rest but give me that good Feinstein episode or soMethjng. Anyway no disrespect to the filmmakers I’m sure this is great I just need chapo laughs - oh what about an episode on all the Silicon Valley fraudsters getting rung up - as sorkin once wrote let chapo be chapo
Same here. After five minutes I went to find the next part of the episode. It doesn't help that I don't care about climate change. I know it's bad and I want things to be done to mitigate it as much as possible, but it is just not my issue. I have a medical condition where I almost certainly won't be an old man and so far I haven't had any kids so I don't have any skin in the game.
frust
This was the best episode in years
Love blowing pipe and eco terrorism and bullying old women with dementia
Just saw this movie today. Really enjoyed it, although I didn't find its exploration of the topics at hand anywhere near as compelling as something like First Reformed. Viewed as a sort of heist thriller, it's really solid though, with great performances. Cant wait to listen to this interview at work tomorrow
That’s weird cause I made a “documentary” last night called how to blow a pipe
I'm gay.
First look at me
Here’s to you, Michael Robinson, Jesus loves you more than you will know
