Matt Christman
Matt Christman is an American leftist commentator, author, and podcast host best known as one of the original and ongoing hosts of the podcast Chapo Trap House. Before Chapo, Christman was associated with Street Fight Radio and was somewhat known on Left Twitter.[citation needed] Christman has a unique style which blends dialectical materialism with other philosophical trends and modern historical research. He was a co-author of the Chapo bestselling book and has created several mini-podcasts and one-off episodes about topics like Mormonism, Weather Underground, Operation Gladio, the history of the United States presidency, and the Thirty Years' War, as well as a forthcoming podcast about the Spanish Civil War.
For several years, Christman has been regularly posting solo vlogs on the Chapo YouTube channel called "CushVlogs", which typically revolve around reviews of recent books on anthropology, and 20th century political history but increasingly feature Christman's synthesis of Christian terminology and philosophy with the Marxist tradition to describe the new forms of consciousness created by the 21st-century capitalist system.
