You know I’ve always heard of Chapo Traphouse but I always struggle to get into Podcasts because it feels like I’m hopping into season six of a sitcom your friends talk about. But these compilations are perfect and now I feel like I can actually understand what the fuck they’re talking about in these podcast episodes now so thanks for your service 👍🏿
That's a feeling I've often had too, but never been able to put into words. It really *does* feel like hopping seasons deep into a sitcom, and these compilations really help the audience understand the plot.
I get your point? And yes, these comps are a blessing! But I’d also suggest that each podcast can serve as a stand-alone episode, with only a bit of the connective tissue falling away. I think these guys kinda get that. Anyway, this approach works for me.
I get this same feeling but from the opposite perspective when I try to show people Chapo for the first time and never know where to start, these are so accessible and so fucking funny to just throw on
very funny but also genuinely harrowing. this conservative dad, definitely was hit as a child and now sees his son not as an autonomous individual but as a thing he has to enforce his will on, but is too scared to actually hit his kid so instead abuses him in the fucking newspaper. insane.
I think it's more the implied unrelenting scolding between home and school, and structured boredom to where you write rules for stealing candy to yourself to pass the time. He snuck Fruit Loops. That is a fuckin balanced breakfast. Not even Trix.
This is still so magical. I listen to this shit every single time I see it, lmao. Caleb is absolutely the chosen one. May his rebellion continue into a glorious horizon of freedom, where M&Ms flow like a spring rain.
The most classic chapo series, and my first exposure to the pod, Caleb Jacoby: A Man of many Treats. Please Caleb, if you are reading this, go on the trap. We need to know what went on with these letter from the other side, for the sake of us all...
Even less so than when that force is being wielded passive-aggressively by a journalist so bereft of insights that he now has to throw his own son under the bus to justify his continued employment.
The most disturbing thing to me is not the annual letters (which are of course disturbing) but the dad’s fixation on his son knowing about horrible things that are happening in the world. I have a suspicion that Jeff probably tried to get Caleb to read Holocaust memoirs starting at like age 10. Would not be surprised at all.
This just makes my heart rejoice, the pod in full Megazord mode, the Shakespearean epic of Caleb's life, his crazy opinion loser dad, the hopeful note of a new family for him. It is the most complet work in the western canon? No. Could use some exorcism? Maybe. But it makes me happy.
“I’m quite willing to live with [your aberrant behavior] if it means the rest of the world will see you at your best…” Just let me finish typing this latest in a lengthy series of columns for a major American paper wherein I document your aberrant behavior.
We are all Caleb. May we all yearn to be a beloved, powerful, and enthusiastic Caleb's. Break free from the chains that are the collective shithead columnist dad, kill the cop in your head, and be the Caleb you want to see in the world.
Same. Hope he ended up alright. I was thinking about being his age and having my dad publicly put me on blast right when the whole social media thing was taking off. Poor bastard lol
Based on context I can only assume that they keep treats and goodies locked up somehow. Which is crazy. Classic case of fat dad not wanting his son to be fat, but keeping food locked up is 100% going to give Caleb a complex.
I sincerely wonder if Caleb could sue his father and the Globe for emotional damage or libel? I mean these articles are tantamount to ongoing public humiliation.
What I NEVER digested before now: Caleb's father is this obvious jackass. But Caleb was pointing out, probably with some specificity, his MOTHER'S ineptitude at 8? ...WHAT WAS SHE *DOING*?! Holy crap.
Jeff Jacoby as far as his expectations for Caleb sounds like my mom who (removed of the collums) tried to raise me into the kind of man Jeff wishes Caleb would become. Not shocking, we don't speak, I have her blocked on everything and I'm throwing a party inside her house when she dies
Same situation. The only good thing is that my parents let me be alone since 16, with my mom joining my dad in Canada (I am from the Philippines). From that onwards, I am able to live a life I desire, learning along the way. Nine years later, I am now a university professor in my alma mater, is taking a Graduate degree on Philippine Studies in the top 2 university of my nation (formerly top 1). My parents still send a decent stipend and will continue to do so until 30. I now also own the house of my parents. I am however a socialist, and has amply prepared if shit hits the fan.
@@albertseverino5576 lucky you. Meanwhile, my mom literally paid a guy to seduce my GF at the time away from me, but that backfired because all I did when she cheated on me was send the receipts to her fiancee at the time, who then called it off out of the giant red flag he saw. The worst part with me and my mom's whole beef is that basically she still thinks all "good" women choose men entirely on character and if he can provide, and hates that I've basically learned how to talk to women and have casual sex with women she sees as "fast tailed" girls (look it up on urban dictionary) It should be noted that: 1. Of the many women in my life that I love and look out for (even preventing a few suicides) I do so because they did the same for me. Multiple times. She literally hates my friends who SAVED MY LIFE only because they had sex with me while not my wife. As if I give a shit? 2. My father, who I love and adore, was a high school dropout when he met my mom. She was in college when they dated, got engaged and broke up. I bring that up to point out she has been up my ass every chance available to bemoan not aspiring for a degree or credentials to get me "to a better station in life to attract a wife" She broke off an engagement with a guy who's a plastic surgeon now, making MILLIONS...to try and marry a high school dropout. 3. She shits on my female friends, wheather they have sex with me or not, because it "makes me look like a whoremonger" (she's 52) Her second child, my baby brother, was conceived when she hooked up with an old high school BF. This wouldn't be a problem...if he wasn't MARRIED at the time he got her pregnant. But sure, the women in MY life "immoral hussies"? Foh

I'd say Jeff is more of a faildad than Caleb is a failson. Most unhinged cringedad of all time.
Every father is a son.
no failson in general has good parents, or even tolerable ones. It's just that when they're adults they become responsible for themselves
He's the AH-64 Apache of helicopter parents.
He's a failed son

Caleb and I are the same age. Seems like a chill dude. I'd like to think we would've been friends, his awful father notwithstanding
Same. Hope he ended up alright. I was thinking about being his age and having my dad publicly put me on blast right when the whole social media thing was taking off. Poor bastard lol
ive listened to this story several times. i am gonna listen again. it truly never gets old
The only episode that's better than this is the 'Cobra' one.
One of my favorite Chapo Trap house reading series. Thank you for this compilation.
THANK YOU ACID I NEVER HEARD THIS UNTIL NOW YOU'RE DOING GREAT WORK
The only problem with your account is calling Caleb a “failson.” If only as an archetypal victim of ‘murican parenting dipshitude, Caleb is a hero.❤️
The ten crackle commandments 🤣🤣🤣
Chapo Trap House's reading series consistently yields some of the funniest content
I've listened to about 20 of your uploads, but this is the one. Holy shit. It's so good.
“What are you supposed to do when your teenage son has been missing for 24 hours?”
Hopefully some self-reflection, Jeff.
Caleb makes me laugh myself in an asthma attack, getting my nebulizer out before I listen to this.
Caleb had the invitation from the most vaccinated uncles and aunt to go on the show and no response. He better be making those beats
kid looks like teenage Nick Mullen
Yeah he changed his name after graduating
Yo I need to know what the fuck went down at that baboon sanctuary
jfc i cant even stop laughing omg
The truth of the baboon sanctuary is obscured by a forest of NDAs and hypnotism sessions
I'm glad I wasn't the only one weirded out by the term "food locker." Like *do you mean pantry??*

Some people should never have children.
I was wondering why they called Caleb a failson when he was still so young, but then I realized that according to his dad, this kid sucks!
Does anyone know a six letter word for "decapitate"?
My dad CSAed me as a child, and what Caleb went through was worse.
