comedy, movies

This week on the Frotcast, it’s co-host Brendan’s triumphant return from fathering children. Brendan joins the irregular regular Matt Lieb and Vince, with returning guest, comedian Yusef Roach. Yusef just got fired, possibly for social media reasons, so we ask about that, and then I play all my favorite football reality shows for ex-NFL Europe player Brendan. Can you predict the moral of the bad football coach parable? After that we talk “Bitch I’m a Cow,” the song of the Summer, and we all watched the 1993 classic The Fugitive. Is it the best cast movie ever made? We also talk awards shows, Colin Jost, and more.

Aquaman in Justice League via warner bros

This week on the Frotcast, we’ve got comedian Jeff May from Tom & Jeff Watch Batman on to discuss Justice League, which we finally made it all the way through after falling asleep two or three times. Worth it? (It’s currently free on HBO). We also discuss James Gunn getting fired by Disney thanks to a letter writing campaign organized by an accused rapist, and the Georgia Assemblyman who resigned after Sacha Baron Cohen tricked him into shouting the N-word and being incredibly racist 16 or 17 times. That Cohen, such a trickster. Also best wishes to overdosee Demi Lovato from ex-heroin addict Matt Lieb. Eat the rich, eat that butt. Much love and Frot on, donate at Patreon.com/Frotcast.

Sacha Baron Cohen talk begins around minute 15.

Justice League talk begins around 42 minutes.

373: Book Of Henry, With Yusef Roach And Harry Moroz

comedy, movies

This week on the Frotcast, me (Vince Mancini) and Matt Lieb are in the Frotquarters, joined by comedians Harry Moroz and Yusef Roach to talk about one of the most baffling movies of the last few years: Colin Trevorrow’s Book of Henry. It seemed timely, as Trevorrow recently claimed that Book of Henry is a “carbon copy” of A New Hope, the first Star Wars movie. Also, it’s on HBO Go now. Besides that, we learn about how Yusef grew up idolizing Jack Sparrow living in the Caribbean, how Harry grew up short and horny in Michigan, and typical Matt Lieb facts about how he has sex with inanimate stuff. Also we answer your curiously earnest emails! frotcast@gmail.com, 415 275 0030. Enjoy and Frot on.
