740 - Crank About Creeping feat. Ben Terris (6/12/23)

Today we’re joined by journalist Ben Terris, who’s been sort of shadow-programming the show recently with his pieces on Sean McElwee, Diane Feinstein’s staff, Tommy Tuberville’s advisors and questions about Tim Scott’s virginity.  We discuss Trump’s federal indictment over the “boxes hoax,” and the growing feeling that ol’ Donny might possibly maybe finally be kind of fucked. Then we talk to Ben about his new book “The Big Break,” and learn more about all the McElwee-esque DC creeps, weirdos and gamblers he’s come to know investigating the world of post-Trump Washington.

You can find Ben’s book here: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/ben-terris/the-big-break/9781538708057/?lens=twelve

740 - Crank About Creeping feat. Ben Terris (6/12/23)

He has my name

Benjamin Harris

it's so disorienting to hear felix keep saying vivec without subsequent morrowind lore

Jim Storrie

The grammar of “I’m a crank about creeping” is fascinating. I wonder if he means he’s a crank, out and about, creeping around; or if it means he’s a crank, one with an unshakable belief about the goodness of creeping, who boldly denounces anyone who would criticize the practice.

Every city in America is shit, you gotta make the best of it. If you hop from place to place and they all suck, says more about you than the places.

Little boxes in the bathroom/little boxes full of documents

you can say what you want about frank luntz but riverboat gambler is a good pinball machine. it's not medieval madness but it's decent

It’s fine. Decent art scene, decent food. Most DC people are very demonstrative about their politics, but that’s true of all coastal metropolises.

Nah dc is shit

That Crack about Peter and Paul finally got me off my ass to see Funny Games (2007)

I’m a creep about cranking

These dudes are too veggie averse

Bro, I'll eat your broccolini, chill.

I'm only tired of it because God how many balls slapping sounds does one need to at least imagine in their head

I love this guy’s method of pluralizing hyphenated surnames.

Toilets are supposed to be lower to the ground. It reduces strain and hemorrhoids.

Poppy Chulo

This is hog talk ofc, but I think the neophyte Trump-appointed judge is a pretty clear tip off this is another round of Donny did very bad things but gosh darn it not actionable legally. Anyway, B+ slop

Christopher E Musgrave

Matt Schlapp dead ass Connor Roy with those food Q's

I will never ever tire of hearing the name MATT SCHLAPP

Liturgy stinks. Always stank. Even worse live.

stinkface

The lil tidbit about desantis being a puddy had me cackling

surprised y’all didn’t mention Ravenna Hunt Hendrix, the brain behind the band Liturgy, is also HL Hunt’s granddaughter. she rules tho, amazing artist

Janie Danger

Seeing Liturgy tomorrow I will approach her about this

god listens

The episode picture is from Mar-a- Lago?! My brother has a home reno company, and he makes bathrooms like that for new houses in the burbs ( minus the chandelier). This is the thing that I keep noticing about the wealthy: even the wealthiest people in the country just live in McMansions now. Billionaires, and near-Billionaires, don't live in palatial villas anymore, they just live in cubic particle board structures of different sizes. Why would anyone even pursue wealth, if your reward is just a drywall box with more compartments and higher property tax?

I heard "Leah Hunt-Hendrix" and immediately thought of Haela Hunt-Hendrix, the leader of incredibly artsty (and controversial in metal circles) black metal band Liturgy. Turns out they're sisters!

Jim Veil

sir, this is a gay wendy’s

Is Chapo going to talk about WW3, or is it going to be hot gossip until the nukes start falling. Also double digit excess mortality rates for people between 18-40 across multiple years and not a word from the bards above. Talk to your handlers, boys: you need show a little cognizance or else the op becomes obvious by virtue of the silence.

Kevin

that would be a correct metaphor if everything were different but good try

Trump 2024 is more Lyndon LaRouche 1992 than Eugene Debs 1920.
