🕑 Added 2016-12-01 02:45:44 +0000 UTC The world is a stage, and Thanksgiving is the Globe Theater. In this show we discuss several articles written about the show this past week, addressing criticisms from libs to conservatives to neurotic transphobe Rod Dreher. Will's mom thinks we're cool.

Amber, Felix & Matt are my favorite part of the show. But honestly since the election… a lot of self-satisfied navel gazing on these premium eps & it's not coming from them. After hearing the 01/06 program & Will saying that the focus is going to be on entertainment, I'm thinking, "My time & money are limited. Am I really going to pay money for Will to read articles written by AEI douches?"

Ludicrous...
idk
this anti-radiohead sentiment is by far the most offensive thing i've ever heard on chapo tbh
Michael Benedetto
I fuckin hate radiohead.
Susan Kang
More golden peals of laughter from Amber please

I wonder what Huey thought of The Discourse.

Like randygdub, Good Old Boys is criminally underfollowed

LOL at Matt's reaction to the book title. <a href="https://frinkiac.com/gif/S07E20" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://frinkiac.com/gif/S07E20</a>

I love the references to Will's (((publishing executive))) parentage
Aidan Dean-Jones
radiohead fucking sucks. Glad someone addressed it.
Jordan Kendall
"like music for depressed people" yeah no shit bitch and no im not mad at all
Benson Benson
Yeah you're right that was a dick way to say it. I don't think it's fair to assume that amber's omission is a symptom of what you're describing tho. The New Yorker article did overly suggest the Bernie bro critique, but not because it mostly omitted Amber. She'd only just debuted as a host when the article was written

I'll answer your question but first: you're an asshole for phrasing it that way, good jeorb. Lib/centrist pundits have been studiously ignoring leftist and Dirtbag Left women and POC in order to pick fights with people they identify as white and/or male. @roqchams straight-up confronted Jill Fillipovic about it, documented here: <a href="http://www.carlbeijer.com/2016/11/the-alt-center-has-bigotry-problem-and.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.carlbeijer.com/2016/11/the-alt-center-has-bigotry-problem-and.html</a>

Man I hope chapo season 2 doesn't devolve into this sort of navel gazing. Also why is amber complaining about lack of attention. She's been on like three episodes
Derrick Williams
*puts cum soufflé in oven* the accusations against John Podesta in this episode are entirely baseless

Nice Huey Long reference at the end there.

Brendan consistently batting 1000 on the closing songs
Stephen Czaicki
I'm not mad about Will and Felix's terrible Radiohead opinion. I'm laughing, actually.

fiending all week for my chapo, and it opens by insulting the media that I understand my life through, radiohead.

Didn't Roqayah go off on Traister back in ep 20something?
Michael S. Judge

felix sounds extremely dan quinn-esque when launching into a spirited defense of les miserables

As someone who spent 2 years actually going door to door, without a list, to raise funds for an abortion rights group, Rebecca Traister wouldn't last a fucking day. Mostly because she'd find out that she's the kind of person that you dread meeting at the door. The liberal that does so much already, and by that they mean they gave money to the Democratic Party, wrote a shitty letter to the editor, imagined the accomplishments of others as their own, and then slams the door in your face while patting themselves on the back. Personally, that work and a year working on a state senate campaign in the Democratic Party is what primed me to become a part of the dirtbag left.
