728 - Mighty Men (5/1/23)

50:15 Matt’s prediction was so spot on hahaha

felix was running deep with the dark souls references, really funny.

Blood plantains haha. That is one the funniest things I've heard this week!

The Disraeli staff is OP but I prefer the Hammer of Gladstone

Talking about democratic backbench: Jeff Jackson from NC appears to have quite a bit of charisma and is v. prevalent on social media. Alright tear it to shreds

Was this epi the one where you trash-talked Francis Gary Powers? It turns out... his eject lever was rigged to blow him up, and his flight crew told him about it. He opened the cockpit when he could, climbed out and jumped. https://spoilsofwar.substack.com/p/secret-historical-fun-facts

are we ever gonna see an animation of a bunch of Jews in fedoras stoning Christ?

Would love to be in the balcony watching Trump’s boyish smile when Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats hits its crescendo. He would probably lean over to me and tell me he got goosebumps. ❤️

Chomsky NO!

Josh Haley's is writing a pornographic sequel to the movie Boyhood?

Boomers don’t understand millennials politically so they’re out here trying to run vintage candidates cause they know we like old stuff.

So obviously a Battle Mage build. Chapo is doing stolen valor for autism. Not cool.

I firmly believe dislike of Biden is very soft. People may think he’s senile, unfit for the job, and not going to make it through a 2nd term, but they don’t really care. Democrats are still going to vote for the party, and republicans don’t hate Biden nearly as much as they’ve hated past dems. I think he’ll win bigger in 2024 than he did in 20.

Damn funny episode. Felix is one of a kind.

Josh Hallway's target demographic is the guys in Melonie Mac's replies and twitch chat

Bro i love phantom

You had me at Buckley

They should have let matt go first for the fantasy gear draft

the Mighty Bosstones of Christ over here like NEEEEVER HAD TO SPANK MY WOOD BUT I KNOW SOMEONE WHO HAS

I think we finally know what Pat Tillman was talking to Chomsky about before he was "accidentally" killed. Hmmm! HMMMM i dont know how to end this punchline

William F. Buckley, the fanciest of the fancy lads, playing defense for a fancy lad to molest other fancy lads? Color me shocked

Used for a 1000 years? No they fucking haven't. Imagine just lying like that over these goofy ass items and anyone taking you seriously.

Probably more like under the Silver Lake

Felix's tangent on getting into a secret boss fight with Benjamin Disraeli absolutely destroyed me. A+ stuff. Also seconding the motion on DEATH IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER. The "Terrorism as Public Art" series alone is worth the subscription price.

To all you Chappo Trapphouse listeners who aren't already hip to MSJ's podcast DEATH IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER, you cannot make a better addition to your podcast feed. Delivering dense, bleak, funny - and if I'm not mistaken, almost entirely off-the-dome - episodes on a whole gamut of topics that are guaranteed to appeal to the Chap/TrueAnon demo. CIA parapolitics (wait, there's a parallel state that's pulling strings via crime, intimidation, and violence? where'd we get that idea in 1945?), JFK, Pynchon, Bowie, kicking junk, and every once in a while, some real hardcore guitar & audio tech talk. The Patreon page is /deathcorner but if you have like Overcast you can still listen to a ton of episodes he posted from 2018-2019. That way you can get a lil taste before signing up for the paywalled stuff. Which you should do.

I’m sure this has already been said, but is it coincidence that it’s Will & Kate and Will & Katherine?

herman cain never wore a mask.

I’m using a stone mason build, call that Build Back Better

Anyone see those Biden tik tok kids? The dnc is trying to pay influencers to pump up Brandon lmfao

Another thing that doesn't get talked about as much, and why DeSantis is flailing nationally, is that Florida has basically been a place where the GOP has been playing on easy mode since at least the 90s.

what does OG maco say when you ask him if he was on the flight logs? "BITCH YOU GUESSED IT... you was right"

Humble mighty men.

For my coronation build, I'm rolling with "Saint N Word's" staff. It's immensely powerful.

BTW, is Mark Penn basically speaking for the Clintons? That Penn and Robby Mook are still living is proof the Clinton Death List is just BS. What jury would have convicted HRC of offing Mook back in 2017? "Your honor, he ran a campaign so bad that he put a bigoted game show host in the White House."

Only good thing about Phantom is Lloyd Webber ripped off Pink Floyd for it.

Death is Just Around the Corner shoutout? That’s about one thing: respect.

mike judge is the goat let him and his bro talk about movies

Trump was never happier than when he got to dress up and sing on stage at the Emmys

So I guess Noam Chomsky and Peter Lamborn Wilson do have a lot in common afterall.

8 simple rules for trafficking my teenage daughter

Trump needs to see Shen yun

Gonna just pretend the Chomsky news didn't happen

Only safe bet is low turnout

"Nobody was wearing a fedora when they stoned Christ" lol

"Well he's dead now, so you always have to be careful"

It would be the wrong move for Japan to turn towards China since if we’re talking countries with terrible birth rates and demographic crises hoo boy has China got that by the boatload

May Day is not a holiday, it's a for fighting day, shout out to everyone who got out on the street.

Nikki Haley looks like she is positioning herself as VP. Gotta say a Trump-Haley ticket would be more formidable than Trump-Pence, especially with suburban moderates. In 2016, Trump needed Pence to consolidate the evangelical vote. That is no longer the case. If we are looking at a recession in 2024, will the realignment that started taking place in 2018, 2020, and 2022 in the suburbs be sufficient to put the Dems over the top? I would feel a lot more comfortable if someone like Gretchen Whitmer, or Pritzker was at the top of the ticket, or if Whitmer was at least the VP instead of Harris.

Clerics can’t wield swords smfh

The fact that William F Buckley was wrong about Michael Jackson and Katt Williams was dead right says a lot about society

Wow, the only people who worked today sound exhausted! Thanks for skipping our very favorite national celebration that everyone takes part in to deliver the goods. I guess it's true, what they say.

Matt's old hobby horse that modern spiritual belief is fundamentally cut off from some organic past is ironically the oldest form of tradition. Archaism–the fabrication of an ancient and exalted register–is basically as old as all literature. The textual evidence is that the Bible was largely codified in a purposefully archaic language. This conception of organic society–of authentic tradition–as something from which we are fundamentally cut off is just another a mythic form of preserving the sacred.

Why don't non-Irish British people have any self respect?

Chomsky Honk has a new meaning

It’s a shame Charles rolled so poorly on Diplo, bad rng

I knew I put this information in the right hands

I’m a mighty mighty man i’m young and i’m in my prime!

You guys are washed... in awesome sauce. And cum. My cum, that your awesome sauce pulls from my balls

Chomsky manufactured a bit too much consent

Oh! Slop! We love it, dont we folks?
