Yesterday’s Champagne Sharks ep was a nice conversation with Jessa Crispin that will probably ruffle some feathers.

this was an interesting listen. i like this show and listen every week w CTH.
loved the Gorka stuff. hahaha that voice. didn't he say something about absconding in a hot air balloon at one point? very James Bond villain. they need to reference the Matt Lauer desk button next time.

AdomianGorka’s first appearance explicitly mentioned his resemblance to Hugo Drax, the dude from Moonraker.

Here's the absolutely insane gorka gun magazine interview they were talking about, for anyone who hadn't seen.
The second gorka call remains my favorite but they're all gold.
"Do you consider a surface level series of tattoos to be a 'deep tie' to an organization?"

I need to go back and find the Frost/Christman movie podcasts

Likewise, I wish they do more book club eps. I enjoyed the one on Mark Fisher.

what movies did they do? i remember when those dropped but never got around to them
― flappy bird, Friday, 1 December 2017 02:46 (six years ago) link
A bunch. John Wayne's Genghis Khan flick, the Adam Sandler 9/11 movie, American Sniper, some Dinesh D'souza trash, Wonder Woman, Boss Baby(sorta)
Plus, the origin ep of the show was when the three of them were guests on Street Fight Radio to rip into that stupid Michael Bay Benghazi movie.

Oh wait, you mean Frost/Christman, not the regular show

Here are the F/C eps(I think)

Can’t think of another thread to post this in so enjoy this amusing bit on Lil’ Ben Shapiro

Ben Shapiro's debating skills boil down to relentlessly not shutting up and being 100% impervious to actually engaging with another person's points.
― IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Friday, 1 December 2017 07:16 (six years ago) link
He's a pretty good embodiment of why debate is stupid.

i hate "logic masters"
It doesn't help that the Internet in general and especially forums encourages nitpicking and one paragraph-at-most arguments - so any schmuck like Shapiro who has a forum to be longwinded can impress a lot of people.

nice, premium ep just went up, their review of Justice League

awww yeahhhh

Oh good, for a minute I was concerned they wouldn’t have Amber on.
― Google Murray Blockchain (kingfish), Friday, 1 December 2017 19:42 (six years ago) link
lmao @ amber calling him "Hugh Jazzman"
― flappy bird, Friday, 1 December 2017 19:49 (six years ago) link
ok the post-tax bill ep is one of their best. palpable rage and a thorough repudiation of the "waaah, dominance politics" crowd.

Felix went off in this episode
― een, Monday, 4 December 2017 15:59 (six years ago) link
We don't appear to have a Patreon thread but it appears they done fucked up today.
― louise ck (milo z), Friday, 8 December 2017 01:59 (six years ago) link
what, the price increase? or the lack of a new premium episode
― flappy bird, Friday, 8 December 2017 02:15 (six years ago) link
Patreon's price increase
― louise ck (milo z), Friday, 8 December 2017 02:25 (six years ago) link
yea it's fucked up. got emails yesterday from other people I pledge to giving notice about the price increase and how unfair it is. it doesn't make any sense, these creators were happy to take on the processing fees- why pass them onto the customers?
― flappy bird, Friday, 8 December 2017 02:27 (six years ago) link
more money
― gbx, Friday, 8 December 2017 02:52 (six years ago) link
Yeah, it's a pure cash grab. There are already murmurs from folks wanting to start a not-for-profit alternative.
― Simon H., Friday, 8 December 2017 03:25 (six years ago) link
Even a for profit alternative that used the old patreon system would surely prevail

the Nomiki Konst segment was good, is she the most mainstream personage they've ever had on? It was almost funny to hear them respectfully silence their usual fuck-the-Dems rhetoric for half an hour
― Simon H., Monday, 11 December 2017 13:50 (six years ago) link
yeah, this ep was a nice balance of smart and stupidi do enjoy virgil and felix’s vaguely rain man dynamic

More mainstream than Naomi Klein?
― IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Monday, 11 December 2017 17:19 (six years ago) link
I think so. she's been on fox news and stuff.
― Simon H., Monday, 11 December 2017 17:22 (six years ago) link
more mainstream than sebastian gorka?
― straightedge is just volcel for vegans (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 11 December 2017 18:27 (six years ago) link
David Hayter & all the celebrity comedians they've had on are definitely more mainstream than this person
― flappy bird, Monday, 11 December 2017 18:28 (six years ago) link
they've had patton oswalt on
― -_- (jim in vancouver), Monday, 11 December 2017 18:29 (six years ago) link
I guess I meant in terms of political commentators/personalities. (the Hayter segment was on some other Felix podcast btw)

ohh yeah. yeah that makes sense. still hoping for a Chris Hayes appearance on Chapo, that seems like a possibility (he is a premium subscriber iirc)

is nomiki konst mainstream? the neera tanden minions of the world still act like she & the unity commission are fringe nobodies
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 11 December 2017 19:27 (six years ago) link
yeah i wasn't familiar with her before reading this thread this morning (haven't heard the new ep yet), looked her up, since when is TYT mainstream?
― flappy bird, Monday, 11 December 2017 19:27 (six years ago) link
also for the record i have never listened to more than 5 minutes of this stupid show because i already know plenty of obnoxious loud white bearded socialists with podcasts and unlike these superstars i can at least tell my local brocialists apart on the mic
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 11 December 2017 19:29 (six years ago) link
i think they've trolled/said mean things about chris hayes, not sure if that means he's verboten

whiney g traphousen
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 11 December 2017 19:33 (six years ago) link
again I only inferred mainsteamness because on top of TYT she's a CBS correspondent and has also been on Fox. I don't think neera tanden stans are necessarily the best judges of who and who is not on the fringe
I'm actually not sure all the CTH people are even socialists
― Simon H., Monday, 11 December 2017 19:33 (six years ago) link
they tweet at each other though, yeah they've had disagreements on there but Chris is a fan & im p sure they agree with the consensus that Chris is by far the best MSNBC host, at least certainly the most amenable to leftist politics
