Tabletop Game Theory Pt. III: The Russian Interference | Chapo Trap House | Episode 126

It's another round of cosmic horror.
In this visceral vision of mind-bending insanity, the boys of Capone Speakeasy find themselves in another terrifying conspiracy, this time involving a stark raving prophet Merrick Lapland, alchemist Mark Therno, and a certain captain of industry who has fallen under the sway of a dastardly foreign influence...

It's January 2020. I'm in Des Moines, IA, knocking doors for Bernie Sanders. My fingers are so cold I can barely hold my clipboard. The next podcast that shuffles up is "Tabletop Game Theory Pt 3". Life will never be this good again.

[@michaelbarbarich3965]

That hit me deep in the feels

[@nasty_jazz]

ive listened to each of the tabletop game theory episodes a debatably unhealthy amount at this point. all of them are certified hood classics. please bring this back.

[@Apauling31]

"Mein Kampf has just been published and you have all received review copies." Already laughing my ass off

[@robmckennie4203]

Matt's references are tops, Babbage's difference engine, Paul Simon, keep it coming

[@elaikehler6030]

Virgil went the fuck off with that vagabond dialogue

[@kingofsting19]

Spoilers: This is like my dozenth time, maybe more, watching this episode, and I just realized that Merrick Lapland's crazed rant at the beginning foreshadows Mark Therno being brainwashed by the Russians.

[@homerco213]

Nothing will ever be funnier than, "Wandering Womb."

[@aw2031zap]

These were all incredible and I'd totally watch a podcast that only did stuff like this. These chapo guys are way too talented to be wasting their lives on politics.

[@anthonywalkling8365]

You should check out dungeons and daddies and dumb dumbs and dice. They do comedy live play role-playing shows. They're really good!

[@anyoneattheendoftime4932]

That fucking Eric Garland rant killed me twice over. So sad how Virgil fell off after this.

[@gaybroshevik4180]

@22:40 marxist psychonauts get a mention from chapo finally. ❤️

RIP Virgil

cool! this one was hard to find on Soundcloud and Spitify

[@gnarlyganglesIII]

Please somebody gimme that music from the beginning of virgil's rant near the start

[@kingofsting19]

It's the same song as the rest of the rant: "Powerhouse" by Raymond Scott

[@ThersitestheHistorian]

Where are the first two parts?

[@psukebariah3435]

I'd like to know that, too. Was Jeffstein's house part 1? I feel I'm missing something...

[@psukebariah3435]

They are in the podcast feed (I use podbean) episodes 74 and 76

[@ThersitestheHistorian]

@@psukebariah3435 Thanks. I will have to check that out. I will look for that on Podbean.

whos the racoon mindset guy supposed to be, it's a hilarious but is that a reference to something?

[@yareyarejose5080]

he's a reference to mike cernovich, raccoon mindset is also a reference to his book, gorilla mindset

I love these would be neat to get Amber and Chris in not just because I love CoC(k)

[@headtripindustries-aminor5657]

[@samchampionlives]

Damn with the massive amount of unfunny D&D podcasts out there there's gotta be some as funny as these... Anyone have any suggestions?

[@feydrautha012]

What would the cash value of getting Eric Garland's video-taped response to the ode to his insanity be?

[@aprilk141]

I hope they talk about Minnesota!

Lol funny as hell😆😆😆
