728 - Mighty Men (5/1/23)

We plan out what builds we’re going with using items from King Charles’ upcoming coronation. Then, we compare and contrast visions of masculinity within the Republican party using the models presented by Donald Trump and Josh Hawley, and start forecasting what the Trump v. Biden match-up might look like. Plus, we’ve got new Epstein revelations, and an update on a classic bit of William F. Buckley lore.

728 - Mighty Men (5/1/23)

Comments

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

Cody

Hes a pedophile

J. A.

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

Boaz Corey

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

the golden duck and the spoon are what you carry in your off-hand to give you extra spellpower. never going to clear extreme-difficulty epstein if you can't get this stuff down

A M

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

Dylan Gutridge

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

I look at people who are still for Trump like Mets fans. You’re getting dolled up for a loser, but also awww, that’s sweet. If I met someone who still carried a torch for HRC, I would have to assume that they’re at the very least a serial killer.

Rohmer Simpson

Guy can't do a google search?

Hall wingfield

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

Torgeir Tannenwald

My thoughts exactly. He did an interview with Ali G ffs.

Dan

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. ❤️

J.P. McD.

Chomsky NO!

Dr Nguyen Van Phuoc

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

Robert Alexander Vaughn

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

Ben Wood

I think the only people who really have a bone to pick with Brandon are Clinton zombies. Makes me love dark b even more

Chris

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

The wazzzzaaapp bud light dude

I’ve noticed too that a lot of people who aren’t that political are highly activated by their hatred of Trump.

I am become reply guy

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.

Robert Fenik

Phantom was the bomb.

Brian Rooney

Damn funny episode. Felix is one of a kind.

Brian Rooney

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

Colin Underwood

It's probably like the time he did an interview with hustler magazine. He had no idea what it was

Bill Crotts

The Chomsky thing really bums me out.

Graham

Bro i love phantom

Starry Pr1nce

You were on board before I was, they didn't get me until "lore"

I'm sure it isn't good

Bill Crotts

You had me at Buckley

Bill Crotts

And thats how we know pat tillman was killed in a dispute over child porn with an afghan warlord.

J. A.

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

J. A.

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

Doug Cartel

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

Doug Cartel

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

R K

It sounded like they were quoting or paraphrasing some article. Maybe it was hyperbole on their end. It sounded like propaganda instituted after excavating and beheading the corpse of Cromwell.

K H

i think they were joking

ImTheTrapDurpina

Beginning part of the episode when everyone is talking about the older rich people dying. The Epstein part

Sean Marshall

Also have to recently credit the spot-on thumbnail sketch of the plainclothes / unmarked car cops who routinely terrorize inner cities - "Or maybe you wear your badge on a chain around your neck, if you're a really big dickhead". Perfect picture of the 295-lb white guys with cornrows who treat the gutted and bled-out neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Queens like their personal playpens. Simultaneously looking like they could bench-press a Ford Focus but also that their heart could explode at any moment thanks to taking 6 meals a day at 7-Eleven or Buffalo Wild Wings.

Rohmer Simpson

I'm not making the connection w/ this episode but.... good movie!

Rohmer Simpson

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.

K H

Probably more like under the Silver Lake

Sean Marshall

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.

Ashley Naftule

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.

Rohmer Simpson

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

Church not cutting it. Top $$$ for phub at slc show. I expect results 🫡

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

Ardy Rezv

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.

Maxwell Harkness

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

J. A.

Humble mighty men.

Jason Chapa

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

Bide

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."

Demented Avenger

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

Demented Avenger

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

Rohmer Simpson

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

Kamran Husain

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

Ozzie

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

oof not a good look

Trump needs to see Shen yun

Joe Bowden

Gonna just pretend the Chomsky news didn't happen

Jacob Klein

China's demographics are not dissimilar to the US, neither is making babies like India.

chetan kadodwala

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

Henry Martyn

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

Gumbo Pie

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

Adam Foster

REEEEE THE STONE OF DESTINY IS 1200 YEARS OLD AND WAS STOLEN BY ENGLISH COWARDS FROM BRAVE SCOTS UNDER THE COVER OF NIGHT! INDEPENDENT SCOTLAND WILL STEAL IT BACK AND SMASH THE SKULL OF KING CHARLES ON IT!!!!

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

Maximilian

Haven't listened to the ep yet & yet I'm confident the comment is appropriate

Incog Negro

That's a sharp point you've made ... Well done homie.

Incog Negro

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 voter. 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.

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

Gordon Schmidt

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.
