Bonus Frotcast: Pauly Shore Talks ‘Encino Man’ 30th Anniversary

comedy, movies, , ,

Last week I got to talk to Pauly Shore for the 30th anniversary of Encino Man, and now I’m sharing the audio version for you earholes. This was a pretty cool interview, because as you can hear, I wore out quite a few Pauly Shore movies back when I was a kid. I also think he’s a really interesting character, who sort of got unfairly punished just for getting famous right at the tail end of the hair metal era. Not to mention having had an interesting life, being the son of the owners of the Comedy Store and becoming basically a superstar in his early twenties. As you can hear, he’s still a pretty funny dude. One of my favorite things about this was Pauly effortlessly shutting down my attempts to riff with him, which to me ended up being way funnier than if he’d actually played along and yes-anded me. “What? Yeah, whatever, anyway..”

Like I said, I think Pauly is a super interesting guy and I hope you guys enjoy listening to this interview as much as I enjoyed doing it. Frot on.

Bonus Frot: ‘Dual’ Director Riley Stearns

movies, , ,

This week I (Vince) got to talk to Riley Stearns, the director of Dual, so I’m sharing the audio version with you guys here. Riley previously directed The Art of Self-Defense, which I didn’t like nearly as much as I liked his new one, Dual, starring Karen Gillan and Aaron Paul from Breaking Bad, which is a sort of light sci-fi set in a world where you can clone people, and sometimes you have to fight your own clone for the right to your identity. Riley shot this one in Finland because of COVID, so all the extras are Finnish, which actually gives it a weird effect that adds to the film. We also talk about jiu-jitsu (which we both practice) and an incident during Sundance when Riley objected to a film critic who had previously made fun of him over his divorce (to Mary Elizabeth Winstead) reviewing his new movie. There was kind of a thing about it, but unless you’re extremely online and follow “film twitter” closely you probably didn’t hear about it (and are probably better off). Anyway, check it out, and see if Dual is playing near you go see it.

Bonus Frotcast: Daniels, Directors Of ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’

movies

Recently Vince (that’s me) interviewed Daniels, aka Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, the directors of the new (great) movie Everything Everywhere All At Once for Uproxx. It’s a great movie and a good talk, maybe you already read the text version on Uproxx. Or maybe you didn’t! Who knows! Either way, now you can listen to it with your ears, the way it was originally intended. Okay maybe not intended, but certainly recorded. We used our voices for that, man. Anyway, we got to talkin’ all about how this was like their version of The Matrix and shit and they turned down an offer to direct Loki for it and the rest is history. Super tight. The Dalai Lama joke was from a famous Australian morning TV blooper. I think it went over about as well when I told it.

[UNLOCKED] – Frotcast 499: ‘Pig’ Is For The Piggies

comedy, movies, , , ,

We’re going to have a brand new Frotcast about The Batman for the subscribers going up real soon, but in the meantime, it’s been a while since we unlocked some content for the free feed. Wouldn’t want our piggies to go hungry!

We’re unlocked Frotcast 499, the first of 2022, guest starring Pod Yourself A Gun producer Brent Flyberg featuring such evergreen content as the boys reviewing ‘Pig’ starring Nicolas Cage, and talking about ColorStar, an NFT-adjacent metaverse-peddling disaster of a company that apparently pivoted from selling concrete. It’s hard to explain in a sentence or two, but that’s what makes it great frot fodder. Enjoy this, and sign your ass up for the bonus content to get more! Patreon.com/Frotcast.

Bonus: Party Boy, AKA Chris Pontius From Jackass

comedy, movies, , , ,

It’s Party Boy! Who doesn’t love Party Boy? That’s right, I got to interview Chris Pontius from Jackass this week for the Jackass Forever movie tour, and I figured you’d probably want to hear his voice and not just read his words. Jackass is obviously one of my greatest joys in life, and if they would’ve let this interview go one for an hour and a half I never would’ve run out of questions. It’s only about 20, but we had fun nonetheless, asking Pontius all about his early days at Big Brother Magazine, getting fired from that and becoming a Charles Schwab intern before returning to the Jackass fold and becoming the go-to guy for all things penis-related. Here Pontius explains his worst penis injuries, the most painful Jackass stunts, why nudity is a comedy superpower, and the time he got cornered by a fan and found out it was Leonardo DiCaprio. I had a fantastic time and I hope you will too. How often do you get to ask someone how horse cum tastes?

Frotcast Bonus: Alex Gibney On ‘The Forever Prisoner’

movies, , , ,
What’s up, Frot fans. This week I’m talking to Alex Gibney, who you may know from one of his million documentaries. He won an Oscar for Taxi the Dark Side, he made the Enron movie, and a whole bunch of them since then. He makes like one or two documentaries every year, it’s insane. Anyway, his latest is out on HBO this week, and it’s called The Forever Prisoner.
It’s mostly about the CIA’s torture program and what a comedy of errors it was. (One of the main interview subjects in it is actually Daniel Jones, the character Adam Driver plays in The Report. Remember when I demanded you all watch that one? Yeah). It all started with this prisoner, Abu Zubaydah, who was taken to Thailand for interrogation and was actually giving up good information to the FBI handlers talking to him, one being Ali Soufani, just based on regular interrogation work — building rapport, showing the guy what they knew, and all the normal stuff police and prosecutors usually do. But then the CIA got involved, and they used these kooky contractors who had this crazy torture plan, and everything kind of went sideways from there. Anyway, I think that’s mostly all you need to know in order to understand the interview. 
ALSO, we’re going to be doing a live episode of Pod Yourself A Gun in San Francisco at SF Sketchfest in January. It’s going to be January 15th at Pianofight theater. Here’s the link to buy tickets! Come see Matt sing songs on stage or whatever!

Teaser: Frotcast 495, Will Smith’s Weird Sex Life, With Laremy And Joey Avery

comedy, movies, , , ,

This is just a teaser! For the full episode, become a $5 Patron at patreon.com/frotcast!

This week on the Frot, Matt Lieb is in Costa Rica dropping acid with spider monkeys, changing his whole perspective on shit, but in order to fill the mustache-shaped void, we’ve got comedian Joey Avery and Whoop Dreams star Laremy Legel filling in. As for discussion topics, it turns out Steven Seagal isn’t the only celebrity with the unique physiological reaction to arousal. That’s right, we’re talking about Will Smith and his latest weird story about how he once had so much sex it started to make him puke. And hey, did his family adopt his girlfriend when he was a teen? Also, we’re comparing Will Smith’s performance as Richard Williams in King Richard to the actual Richard Williams. There’s also Joey’s trip to Jacksonville, Laremy’s experience growing up in Florida, and Thanksgiving food. I hope you enjoy it super duper hard.
