Mine too. He shares my same generalist love of history and desire to parse out how it has unfolded, which in turn led me to Marxism.
I wish I had a friend like that in real life to talk to about the stuff Matt has discussed. I just sound insane talking to the random people I encounter everyday about this stuff.
Since I first listened to the pod. He's crazy smart and has such an excellent knowledge of fascism and history. Shame what happened to him though, especially with a newborn on the way.
Katherine made a joke about her being the nepo girlfriend of the show but I'm 99% sure that Will is the nepo girlfriend and she's trying her damnedest to limit the amount she outshines him. I mean I obviously love Will but now that Kath has taken out Matt with the CIA stroke gun she is the undisputed Mr Chapo.
I can't read a NYT opinion blurb without reading it in his voice. It's not Will per say but, he does a great job of making people like David Brooks into people who you want to put in a stockade and throw pies at.
Virgil was the only one of the chapos who really did anything for me, I think. Idk I can't recall what Amber looks like, never saw her enough to form that kind of opinion.
He's got kind of a "The Dude" vibe going these days, with the longer hair and greying facial hair, that I actually don't hate, but I wouldn't say I'm personally very attracted to it/him no.
I’m bi and he has negative attraction from both sides. Despite this, he isn’t ugly enough a decent personality couldn’t salvage. Shame about his personality.
