"So listeners, please bear with us as we take our first hiatus in the seven and a half years of doing this show. We need to organize all our efforts around helping Matt in this critical period, and helping Amber through the birth of their daughter."
"Just listened to the latest Chapo which features Jasper Nathaniel an American Jewish journalist talking about his experience in the West Bank in the last month or so."
"It's been on a long decline but I still listen to a new episode every month or so. Most recent one had an interview with some protest leader activist at Columbia which is a topic I wanted to know more about. As soon as she described herself as "Chicanx" I knew she would suck, and she did."
"First they came for Chapo, and I did not speak for I was not a nerd. Then they came for Cumtown, and I did not speak for I was not an incel. Then they came for rspod, and I did not speak for I was not a femcel"
"all of the ugly bearded guys who were very into chapo and Bernie 6 years have clung to a stagnant culture that's just gotten lamer and lamer."
"Trump and Brexit made the news fun for a while, and Chapo was doing its thing and being actually quite funny. Now its all just so dreary, depressing and repetitive and im feeling myself disengaging more day by day."
"Chapo drives me fucking nuts every time they talk about the UK. They are so wrong about everything. They think they have this hilarious take that the UK is demonstrably worse than the US which, having lived in both counties, I can assure is just fucking stupid."
"some uk left twitter psycho: ah fookin ate that keir starmer lad. ah ate im!
will menaker: aaahahahahaha
that pasty gamer guy they keep having on: i don't get it. the materialism, the material conditions of that, it's just not sensible. it's a bad idea."
"Started listening to the pod in 2018 when they guested on chapo. Was there for the bug man drama."
"I still listen to Chapo Trap House and think it's just as good as ever (I do miss Amber though)"
"These people are so lame holy shit"
"The fact that they didn't know what Finlandisation meant and then having looked up the meaning couldn't understand Biden's meaning. Very sad"
"Apparently the Chapo crew threatened r/BlackWolfFeed with legal action unless they made it into an official fan sub. Not gonna lie, this feels pretty gross coming from the last vestiges of the "dirtbag left"."
"Amber from Chapo (Felix too)"
"I know everyone is cool and anti-Chapo now, but I scored an advanced copy of Amber's upcoming book, _Dirtbag_, out in December."
"One of the ways I cope is through parasocial podcast consumption: Red scare, Chopo, Trueanon, Art and Labor, etc."
"'Dirtbag' podcasts on the other hand (rs, chapo, ct, tafs) all have or had massive subreddits. When the_donald got banned along with chapo/ct, we found out that chapo/ct had subreddits about the same size as the Donald Trump sub."
"Usually a chapo or cum town reply guy whose handle is like "don cherry's flipflops @pussygrinder69" or some bullshit."
"I know Chapo has been on it's Season 9+ Simpsons decline for awhile but Matt is making semi-regular appearances again and he sounds great. Obviously not (or will ever be) at pre-stroke levels but hearing him talk in full sentences and laugh at jokes has been very uplifting for me."
"Top 4 posts are: Henry Kissinger dead, crab rave replies in thread; Critique of American Sniper bc it glorifies American military (woah dude...); Anti-work NEET posting; 'unironically landlords' thread by poster who made epic Mao jokes about killing landlords. Bleak."
"Amber seems like she's at least temporarily done, Virgil obviously done, Matt and amber are both in LA. Felix and Will still in nyc. What's the future of the show after all these pretty huge changes in the last year?"
"I've just been fantasizing about Matt Christman bursting into the room in the middle of that climate discussion and sitting on all three of those twig women, crushing them all beneath his tremendous portly build"
"You guys are going to irony poison people into voting for her and then we're gonna have another narcissistic new age boomer and she's gonna to like bomb Pakistan for being anti-Yoga. I'm sorry there's no way this is going to turn out OK! That was near the 47 minute mark of Chapo 330."
"Going from a lefty chapo fangirl to frantically tweeting about libtards 72639497x a day makes me think she might have an extreme case of online brain"
"I dont even listen to cum town any more or chapo. All i do is listen to red scare. It's my favorite podcast."
"At around the 33:30 mark of the latest chapo, Will says a 6'5 Russian woman started bullying him and telling him that he's a puny American and that Americans should give Alaska to Mother Russia."
"It got like write ups in magazines after its first couple of episodes, when the podcast was still just badly recorded video calls between semi-popular twitter users. How did that happen? Was their perspective genuinely that unique and cutting edge back in 2016? Did Will use his media connections?"
"the virgil texas / contrapoints defense squad is driving me insane idk if these ppl are coming from stupidpol or chapo or what but theyre very gay and annoying."
"What's up with Amber's fake-ass middle name? It's exactly the type of affectation she and the other Chapos would mock in anyone else."
"Chomsky is a social democrat as we all are because grow up"
"Mainly talking about Chapo, Cum Town, and Red Scare, although it feels like pretty much everyone who's appeared on any of these shows has their own podcast now lol. As far as I'm aware none of them have ever really dropped in patreon sub numbers across their lifespan."
"brian griffin; peter have u been listening 2 chapo traphouse peter griffin; no actually i prefer redscare"
"I liked it. Looked it up and apparently Adam McKay is a chapotard."
"Adam Friedland was a guest on the last CTH episode and he made a joke about Virgil without mentioning his name directly. Felix and Will laughed super hard. As far as I know it's the first time Chapo has acknowledged him since The Incident."
"Bonus Ep. 7 from October 2016. Hit me like a brick out of nowhere when she tells a story about her Russian friend Anna going to the ballet. When did Adam and Dasha start dating, because obviously it was after this?"
"I know everyone hates Virgil here but he was my favorite chapo. I can't handle any more of felix talking about animals or making rap references, plus that recent ep they did where they just chastised antivaxxers for the first 20 minutes was fucking cringe."
"I read books and shit but goddam I would have never gotten laid if chapo trap house caught me in my most intellectually vulnerable years"
"She spends ⅔ a page listing basic symptoms of ADHD, while phrases like "anarchist horizontalism" and "Chapo Trap House," are dropped casually without zero explanation."
"There have always been a decent amount of left-wing posters here because of chapofugees/general brooklyn podcast demographics but politics posting in general has never made up more than like 5-10% of the content. It's never been some sister sub of trueanon and chapo where the primary purpose is left"
"A lot of them have just sort of run their course, outlived the moment they were meant for and are running out the clock for money (TAFs, Chapo, Red Scare)."
"when I switch to intellectual podcasts like chapo I regain my intellect (which I need in my job as an HR consultant) and the world becomes so much easier. I can assess the arguments given by any poor interviewer in an unassailable Marxist perspective"
"on the last chapo, they had Brace on again, and we are being sold another fucking podcast. podcast universe. dirtbag cabal. stop fucking telling me about your niche dumb shit you are interested in contributing to the dirtbag 'empire'. i don't want to get hyped on 'Epstein brain' and then pretend to "
"Transgenders have Chapo, wamen and gays have red scare. Yet again, straight white men can't catch a break"
"What's up with Virgil and Amber? They haven't been in an ep together in ages and soygil got mad at Amber's best friend Angela Nagle for the open borders thing."
"too many chapo guys here since anna dasha rightfully called antifa ugly"
"Did she just disappear? Last I heard she was writing a book. Is she still collecting $Chapo Bucks$ despite having completely vanished?"
"Having listened to the Chapo episodes on GHW Bush it just seems odd he would say there's no evidence to implicate the CIA , etc which I don't believe."
"my supervisor explained red scare and chapo trap house and cumtown to my coworker in front of me i can't stop thinking about it"
"Will and Felix - made a bunch of rambling side projects that came up short"
"Forget incels and femcels, the real scourge dragging down rsp is the chapocel"
