As well as, “brownface,” the character evolution of ex-Disney stars in general, and BOMBSHELL: Matt reveals that he briefly went to high school with Shia Labeouf. We discuss Alison’s love life and what it’s like to try to Tinder in a time of quarantine. Can you still smash, bro? After that we discuss Seth Rogen’s new movie, An American Pickle, about an unfrozen Jewish pickle man.

Teaser – Frotcast 449: Russell Crowe Is Unhinged

comedy, movies, , , , ,

I’s that time of the week again. The time when you can subscribe to our Patreon over at Patreon.com/Frotcast to hear our latest Frot.

In this installment, Matt and I discuss Unhinged, starring Russell Crowe as a road-raging psychopath who kiiinda seems like a more actually-homicidal version of Alex Jones. Before we get into that, we talk about the best names for next year’s Name Of The Year Draft that we came across this week, as well as the latest news in the movie world, like Olivia Wilde getting tapped to direct a Marvel movie and Guillermo Del Toro doing a stop-motion Pinocchio musical for Netflix. As the internet’s foremost source of factual movie news and not bad Irish accents or improvised songs about eating butt, you will probably love it. And we love you! Provided you go to Patreon and sign up. No refunds.

comedy, movies, ,

We have a brand new episode for the Patreon subscribers this week, in which we review Russell Crowe’s new road rage movie, Unhinged, plus talk news of Olivia Wilde’s Marvel movie and Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio musical.

Hey everyone. Matt and Vince here and oh boy do we have a doozy of an episode for you this week. In today’s Frotcast we discuss the all important Emmy nominations and all of the online discourse about black representation in the nominees and lack of latinx representation, and how this conversation just lead to everyone ignoring the fact that the Kominisky Method continues to get nominations for no reason.

Also, Vince forced me to watch The Secret: Dare To Dream – possibly one of the most evil movies ever made, right behind Birth of a Nation, Triumph of the Will, and Howard the Duck. In fact, I’m pretty sure that The Secret’s original title was Triumph of the Will. Anyway, it’s a fun episode. Eat up, hogs.

Frotcast 448: Boys State and Wet Ass Pussies with Jason Webb

comedy, movies, , , , , , , , ,

Hi again, it’s that time of week again where Matt and Vince take a break from their life of isolation with their significant others and talk to each other about wet ass pussies in perfect Irish accents and release the conversation for public consumption. Now that I’ve explained what podcasting is to you fine people, I think it’s best that I tell you what we talked about this week. On this week’s Frotcast, we invited comedian Jason Webb to the virtual frotquarters to talk about the upcoming Apple+ documentary Boys State which follows a group of high school teens as they take a crash course in running a political campaign. We also talk Cardi B’s hot new single WAP as well as the Ben Shapiro remix. Plus, there’s a brief update on the life of Jordan B Peterson and much more. It’s a good pod. Please listen.

Frotcast 445: Caddyshack 40, Hillary 4 Hour, With Joey Avery

comedy, movies, , , ,

Caddyshack turns 40 this week, and since I had to watch it to write about, I made Matt watch it and talk about it with me and then we invited Joey Avery to discuss it with us. Caddyshack was slightly before our times but we still kind of like it, and I was curious what someone slightly younger, like Joey would think. Like was this just the era that was the first time Boomers got to drink and do drugs on film, or is it actually good beyond that in a way that holds up? So we’ve got that discussion, plus a run down of the latest in movie news, like Hulu getting into the Hillary Clinton fan fiction business and the Vanilla Ice biopic. We hope you love it, and as always, no refunds.

Over on Patreon.com/frotcast, I will be putting my bonus interview with Caddyshack book author Chris Nashawaty, and that will have all kinds of Caddyshack facts and stories and whatnot. Frot on and eat the beans.

TEASER: Frotcast 444: Amber Turd and Other Celeb Love Stories w Francesca Fiorentini

comedy, movies, relationships

FROM THIS WEEK’S BONUS PATREON-ONLY EPISODE! The full episode is available to our Patreon subscribers at Patreon.com/Frotcast.

[Full Description]

Hey everyone,

Matt Lieb here. While Vince Mancini is off vacationing with his family and somehow leading a normal life from what I see on Instagram, I decided for the first time ever to give all y’all Patreon piggies a Vince-less bonus episode. This week, I invited my best special friend Francesca Fiorentini (Bitchuation Room, MSNBC, my girlfriend) into the frotquarters to discuss other celebrity power couples besides her and me. We talk Amber Heard and Johnny Depp’s increasingly hilarious press and legal battles which include allegations of Amber Heard taking a “whooper poop” on the bed, and contrast their terrible relationship with Jada and Will Smith’s cute and painfully modern relationship complete with consensual extra-marital cucking and live stream processing. Me and Francesca like to think we’re somewhere in the middle of this spectrum. It’s a fun episode. Listen to it.

Howdy! This episode is just a tease, like your sister, but the full episode is available to our Patreon subscribers at Patreon.com/Frotcast. It would be so sick if you became one. So sick, dude. Seriously.

[Full Episode Description]

Hello faithful Frotcast listeners! It’s time for your weekly refill of content slop and I can’t wait for you to dig in. This week, your slop chefs Vince and Matt have served up hot steaming pile of conversations about the brand new Netflix comedy Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga starring Will Ferrel and Rachel McAdams. I don’t wanna spoil the conversation for you but Matt and Vince very much enjoyed the movie and now are hoping to someday move to Iceland and start a new life together. But that’s just a dream.

Anyway, they also talk about reports that Christopher Nolan doesn’t let people sit, Mel Gibson said some bonus anti-semitic shit, tales from NPR and so much more. So dip your fat fucking snouts in that and try not to drown in that shit. Compliments to the chefs.

Frotcast 443: The Thing About Hamilton, With Francesca Fiorentini And Andrew Law

comedy, movies, , , ,

The time has finally come for the Frotcast to discuss Hamilton, a play Matt has seen and loved and thus far failed to convince me (Vince) to watch. UNTIL NOW! Is Hamilton the defining theatrical achievement of our times or some cheesy overhyped schoolhouse rock bullshit?

To join us in this discussion, we have Francesca Fiorentini, host of the Bitchuation Room, founder of Newsbroke on AJ+, and frequent guest on The Young Turks, who once, along with Matt forced me to listen to the Hamilton soundtrack on our way to the Russian River in the back of Matt’s Honda Civic; and Andrew Law, aka IllyBocean on Twitter and cohost of the BoontaVista Podcast, who, like me, was a skeptical Hamilton virgin, BUT has the added hurdle of being an Australian who wasn’t forcefed the Founding Fathers and Constitutional Convention in school.

It’s a spirited discussion, and naturally, Matt turns it into many analingus puns for his Hamilton parody about eating butt, Lumilton.

Sample discussion of geopolitics:

MATT: Wait, Australia has a queen?

ANDREW: The Queen of England, baby. We’re still subjects of the commonwealth.

MATT: Wow, that’s weird!

Hey, we’ve got lots of amazing bonus content, especially these past few weeks, including me and Matt reviewing The King Of Staten Island. Hear them right now by signing up to our Patreon, Patreon.com/Frotcast.
