This week bring on Frotcast favorite Matt Ufford of SB Nation (and the Uffsides podcast). We read some news stories, hear from a crappy version of Rebecca Black, Vince finds a James Hetfield soundboard, we discuss some of our “best of” from 2012, sing some Les Mis, and read listener emails. Drunk on!

Frotcast Bonus: Jordan Morris



Here’s the deal, Jordan Morris from Jordan Jesse Go! (that’s another podcast for those of you unfamiliar – DO NOT DESERT ME!) was in town this weekend, and the rest of the boys were at work, so we recorded a one-on-one podcast. It’s not quite the normal Frotcast vibe you’re used to, but we did get to talk lots about movies, cult movies, Jordan’s favorite and least favorite interview subjects, and getting in early on the whole podcast phenomenon. Definitely not as many jokes or as much horseplay, but we did actually get complete some thoughts. Complete thoughts are probably overrated, but still. A good time was had by all. And by all I mean both. A good time was had by both. I think. Enjoy!


Filmdrunk 130: Laremy



This week we bring on Frotcast favorite Laremy Legel. Vince and Laremy share a dislike for The Hobbit, we read this year’s Lacrosse Names, talk about the Oatmeal/ Buzzfeed beef, read listener emails, and other standard Frotcast jackassery. Drunk on!

    00:02:38 – Vince goes into detail of what glorious things he had to eat the previous night. Brendan went to a metal concert sober. The guys start to talk about the Buzzfeed/Oatmeal feud over a rape joke that winds its way into a discussion about gun control.
    00:20:55 – A listener clarifies a question the guys had about moonshine from a previous episode. There’s talk about the use of Porky Pigging vs Donald Ducking. Vince plays a clip that embodies the Christopher Walken School of Acting. Vince likes pot roast.
    00:32:05 – Laremy joins the Frotcast starting off with some football talk before getting into The Hobbit with Vince. Both of them had issues with the film besides the running time, and they get into the 48 fps “soap opera” effect. The gang talks about some of Peter Jackson’s past non-Tolkien films.
    00:57:55 – As usual, Laremy comes prepared with a list: Rejected Bermanisms. The guys read off the Lacrosse All-Name Team and a list unusual baby names. Vince brings up a recent Kevin Smith post on FilmDrunk that created some outrage in the comments section. Brendan gets into the hit and miss ratio of Key and Peele skits, which leads to Bret going on a rant about comedy writing in the internet age.
    01:37:05 – Time for some more emails. One listener asks if there have ever been a negative side to being recognized out in public. Brendan reveals some nightmares he’s had due to involvement with the Frotcast. A listener asks about the protocol of naked dumps at work, and the guys get into stories about that one kid everyone went to school with who peed at the urinal with his pants around his ankles. The topic of favorite film versus the best film you’ve ever seen gets brought, and how some people use that to show how sophisticated they are. A new Paul Blart Presents is introduced, and one listener tries to breakdown who would win in a fight between the four Frotcast members.

Filmdrunk 128: Burnsy and Laremy



This week we have two guests! Burnsy comes on with some HOTT GOSS as well as some fresh Youtube clips. Laremy comes on and we let him give us a list at the very end. We talk some movies, play a clip from Teen Mom 2, and hear stories from the Frotcasters.

    00:01:25 – The guys start things off by poppin’ tacos and talking about the Facebook status update hoax that has been going around lately. Ben has really gotten into Teen Mom 2, and Vince plays a clip where one of the young moms has to make a difficult decision (hint: a Ke$ha concert is involved). The guys get into a discussion about the popularity of GIFs, which leads into talk about one of the most GIFable moments in sports: Mark Sanchez running into his own lineman and fumbling. They also mourn the career of 49ers quarterback Alex Smith.
    00:21:13 – Burnsy brings what could be the next Friday in Brittany Smooch’s Pink on Pink. Vince admires Patrice Wilson, the producer of these spoiled rich kid music videos, and plays Thanksgiving for everyone. The guys talk about Honey Boo Boo’s disgusting mother, and the lacrosse/music sensation Con Bro Chill. Burnsy gives a peek into his Worst Movies of the Year list, and the guys get into a Red Dawn original vs. remake discussion. Vince reads from Jada Pinkett Smith’s Facebook post about people questioning her parenting skills. Burnsy leaves with some Hot Goss; he is looking for a new celebrity BFF.
    00:56:37 – Laremy’s segment begins with a listener question relating to a topic that was brought up last week. The Armond White tweeted Vince. Laremy and Vince talk about Killing Me Softly and James Gandolfini’s breath acting. Vince doesn’t get the hype behind Beasts of the Southern Wild, and Brendan nails some of the scenes from the movie without even seeing it.
    01:29:54 – Vince has questions about the legality of moonshine. Brendan retells a tale about his mom and how his parents are from a RomCom. Laremy’s love of the Michael Jackson catalogue gets the guys to talk about the Bad music video. Vince gets the rye snorts. Laremy finishes things off with a list of product ideas and services he could render. Human sized doggy door seems like a winner.

    01:04:00 – The guys talk about some of the terrible jobs they’ve had, such as copywriting college loan brochures, working at Starbucks, being a bouncer, and writing questions about product placement on television shows. There’s a lot venting about the awful people they’ve had to deal with.
    01:34:20 – Time for some Big Lebowski talk, and a look at the Coen Brothers’ filmography. The discussion leads to concept Twitter personalities that do and do not succeed in their premise.
