Chapo Trap House: Episode 142 - The Schlock Doctrine feat. Naomi Klein (9/17/17)

September 17, 2017 9:38 PM

Naomi Klein comes by to talk shock, climate, resistance, and how smart we are. We then do a reading of Peggy Noonan's column, written while she was high on anesthesia.

In the intro they say that she apparently told them to not screw around too much.

She makes fun of them right away that she's there to be 'another token woman'. I love that she's familiar enough with the show that she knows what the usual barbs at them are. I like when people I like get along.

I love hearing her talk casually and plainly and not the format of giving a talk or being interviewed by an MSM journalist who doesn't want to let her statements against global power go unchallenged. Hearing her laugh at a dumb Felix joke or telling Will to bend the knee is really humanizing.
