Episode 775 - The Wrestler feat. David J. Roth (10/23/23)
/ chapo-trap-house
Art/Animation by Emily Halaka @emilyhalaka
David J. Roth joins us this week as we continue discussing the relatively limp and unconvincing propaganda emerging around the Israel-Gaza war. Then, David gives us his review of “Moneyball” Michael Lewis’ new book on Sam Bankman-Fried, and we take a look at a new Washington Post piece chronicling Jim Jordan’s career arc from college wrestling champion to almost-Speaker of the House.
David’s review of Going Infinite is here: nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/...

But its good to see the response in the streets and from regular people has at least got me hopeful for yhe future.

    I was talking to a friend about the Lewis/SBF book and he had an interesting meta-reading. In 2021, one of Michael Lewis's adult children died in a car crash. He would have been building his relationship with SBF and writing the book during this time, and the book kind of gives the impression that Lewis sees SBF as a kid he can be father figure to. As Gus Haynes of the Wire Season 5 would say, Lewis got absolutely took by SBF. But there is another layer to it, for sure.

    39:35 when i first got on Adderall at 31 i was finally able to keep a schedule without wanting to die. I was up at 6:15am every morning and in bed, lights out by 11:00pm. It was glorious to be able to get so much accomplished in a day without feeling like i was about to pass out at any second but i couldn't go more than a day without sleep.

    same - I was a senior in HS on 9/11. I was vaguely tuned into politics on an adult level but I didn’t really get active until my first year of college (when the state, media, and reactionaries all around me were fervently beating the drum for Iraq). I failed almost all my courses my first two semesters bc I was skipping class to attend any/all protests along the east coast… I didn’t have any misgivings though; I knew there was no stopping the Iraq train, but protesting was all I could do to stave off the feeling of powerlessness :\

    Lewis’s daughter died in a car wreck a couple years ago. My theory is that he’s subconsciously treating SBF as like his kid or maybe a nephew & he feels like he has to find meaning & not profile a thoughtless criminal. Otherwise I got nothing. So weird. Read it & had to look twice at the cover to make sure I bought the right book. Wtf

    @@yogidevendrabiriyani1777 "People who hate Jews don't protest"? From nazis to proud boys they protest. I am not anti semite, I am anti bombing children. Both sides are wrong. How many dead babies took part in those decisions that led to this?
