Good ep and good interview. I enjoyed it. Felix rules.

sorry if I'm supposed to melt down because a 64 year old democrat didn't fully embrace socialism or have a nuanced understanding of marxist theory or whatever purity test cspam expects

Agreed. Turns out the inner psychology is narcissism and bullshit.

Wait, are you guys mad that the guy who was a democrat machine governor right up until the day he was politically and socially put on ice until current year hasn't developed a nuanced socialist ideology? He said he wanted to do school choice because that was literally the solution-du-jour of democrats at the time he was in power. At least he said he regrets his war votes, that's more than you'll get from a lot of sitting dems

there's probably a lesson here that Matt would talk about, with why and how patronage/machine politics functions and that often it functions better than the buttigieg school of governance

Blago asking a few times in the beginning if it's okay to swear on the podcast and then 30 minutes later going on a tear about how much he wants to beat up the fucks who put him in prison made me laugh. Obviously the guy's views on the "extremists of each party holding too much power" isn't correct but like...he's a 64-year-old career democrat who just got out of prison, I wasn't expecting him to have a grip on current affairs.

yeah his thoughts on ideological analysis aren't why i listened. i wanted to hear him say he was going to make a fat gently caress cry and i got it

I hope you get crushed to death by a fat guy trying to commit suicide by falling out of a window and when the paramedics answer the local bystander asking if you'll live, he just says "fat chance" and laughs.

“Moving on” from the podcast that ostensibly dug you out of poverty, allowed you to travel all over the world, meet your heroes, and finally allow you the time and resources to write the book you’ve been kicking around since college seems like a weird thing to keep suggesting. Chapo Trap House is probably the formative work of her career and her lifetime and it’s unlikely she’ll reach a wider audience doing literally anything else. She’s Chapo till she drops dead.
