746 - Gordian, Not! (7/4/23)
🕑 Added 2023-07-05 05:37:46 +0000 UTCHappy holiday weekend, sorry we’re a bit late. To give them credit, the dry boys actually rallied to record as usual on Monday, this time it’s Chris who’s been off grilling and chilling in the woods. Anyway, we’ve got takes on the recent Supreme Court rulings, Twitter’s continued degradation, and drama among the loser nerds behind the DeSantis campaign.
Tickets for our live shows in BOTH Montreal and Toronto available here at https://www.chapotraphouse.com/live

Song at the end?

Wait, did Will buy the bar a round because he LOST a shake-a-day?! Will, you’re supposed to buy a round when you WIN! Because everyone’s a winner when you’re a winner
Jon
Will getting midwest pilled? We love to see it.
Naked Shitter
MSNBC was on in the background and Chris Hayes also made the comparison that DeSantis was this election's Ted Cruz and used the Omar line "you come at the king best not miss." Someone was listening to the other.
Alan Fulcher
I think that’s a Blue October song? Hadn’t thought about that band in a long time lol

I don't even check for the show, I just look for the angry "where's my slop" comments

affirmative action was just bad policy seemed to only be favored by elitist libs

iunno i think it's good that public orgs and community stuff can send just tweets about what they do instead of needing a home domain to do communiqués but that's just my opinion
Karl Childers
as a non twitter user i hope they never fix this and no one ever sends me a twitter link again
Donald
I was in Lakeville the 3rd and 4th. Felt good man.
etienne
the fact that they also loginwalled the entire site is underdiscussed, it just completely destroy the usability of the platform as a public communication device
Pamela Beegle
One of their BEST! The Musk/Zuck shit had me doubled over laughing- had to listen to this episode 2ce.
James Browning
Streets of Rage! Finally a Chapo crossover

I don’t see why the fed can’t quantitatively ease the student debt. Yeah, the Dems will never do that because that would actually be a good solution - but why is no one (other than me afaik) proposing it? Just make that debt disappear down the fed’s gullet. It’s hungry right now with these high interest rates

Speaking of the most grifty Trump people who have jumped ship - Bill Mitchell II: DeSantis Edition dropped
Oops, all geeks lol

Hunter has kind of a Sonny Crockett bod, which I didn't know they still made
Matt Murphy
Did the opening theme sound slightly pitched down to anyone else or am I breathing that good air rn?

It's a reddit that subs to a domreddit
etienne
do you think you and or some of the aforementioned people are able to form opinions and positions more elaborate than that of a guy riffing to punch in a comedy riff
etienne
i think it technically fails because someone else filmed but what a classic
Harry P. Ness
Felix forgetting late former mayor of Toronto Rob Ford's crack video
whats a subreddit
SF
wait, the reply guys got a new subreddit?? Can we get that one banned too?
Justen Harper
Lol what the fuck are people supposed to do? Protest? In this country?
Axel Herrera
Funny, the subreddit is up in arms over this episode because of the boys’ tepid take on student loan debt and college. I do wish they had a bit more to say about it other than “no one should go to college”. The institution is fucked, but I do think there is value in higher education.
Marcus
Smoking crack is whatever. Doing 170 on public roads is bad. But driving a 911 is just gross.
veni
Vir-JIN-al never change, Will
Tommy
I don't know about you but I take comfort in that. It's good knowin' he's out there. Wide Dick Willy. Takin' 'er easy for all us sinners.
james
I love hearing about how relaxing Will’s life is!!!
Valerie
"33 is the correct age to die" Amen. Ready to end it all.
Tim Mullen
Would love an addendum from Felix and Jon Bois on fighting and the age of loneliness. As a former hardcore fan who’s fallen out of love with the sport for the reasons Outlined in the final installment plus the politics, I’d love to see Felix’s analysis as the sport has changed a lot in the last 5 years

Felix saying that MMA used to be for antisocial freaks who have a complete set of real historical japanese blades in a tatami room in their apartments is just describing Baki. They should have the complete Baki The Grappler manga and its sequels in every MMA gym and it should be mandatory to learn it by heart, the trainer should ask "Who was the first opponent to Speck and what was the outcome of the fight" and the aspirant should know it instantly. Only then, after you have proven your commitment to creepy muscular boys being creepy muscular boys, you can actually start MMA training and that should filter all the IG and TikTok posers who want to impress women.

Wasn’t the Biden crack driving in his book?
Nolan
Anyone know where to buy drugs in San Diego
Bryan Williams
Gorsuch anonymously put the Sopranos Ojibwe saying up in the Supreme Court break room 5 years ago and as planned it's driving them all insane.
Sparky
Not individual defiance, but pressure for institutional defiance. Obvious Brandon isn't going to do it since he's an institutionalist, but pushing, say, Gruesome Gavin to just have California ignore the court's more insane rulings or making it a litmus test for candidates. Not workable immediately, but it's certainly no less practical than blind hope in some West Wing-ian "put 15 justices on the court" kind of fantasy that will never happen.
George P
when it blocks some insanity the next GOP president tries, you might see defiance then. how does the average citizen go about ignoring court rulings? the cops and courts are still going to enforce supreme court rulings, so not sure what defiance from John Q. Public would achieve other than going to prison. obviously the ideal is to create a movement with enough political power to make such defiance possible, but that seems pretty hopeless at the moment.
Matelda
I heard on 5-4 one thing the Biden admin could have done was fast-track remove the debt in the actual system, i.e. wipe it off people's accounts rather than announce the program and wait for permission. Then it would have a different, much harder case to put the debt back. But they just aren't playing to win.
Sparky
I know the libs love talking about expanding the court or impeaching the justices (obviously neither of which is going to happen), but at what point do we just start seeing open defiance and dismissal of the court? It's already sacrificed its legitimacy in the eyes of half the country - when do people realize that it can't enforce its edicts and simply start ignoring it?
