TEASER – Frotcast 479: Empathy Is Problematic, With Shereen Younes

comedy, movies, ,

This week on the Frotcast, Shereen Younes from Ethnically Ambiguous is back on the pod to grill Matt about what it’s like being a twin, and whether twin comedians resent other twin comedians. We also talk about American Underdog, and Zachary Levi playing Kurt Warner in what sounds like a Christian film. In the process, we discover that Zachary Levi isn’t Jewish. Other topics include Shaquille O’Neal and an article Matt found in which someone with diagonosed psychosis explains which commonly used terms, such as “empathy,” are actually problematic. We take a side route into bike twitter, and finally, we even manage to discuss a movie — Zola, about the stripper tweet thread (no spoilers!). Finally, we explain why calling our listeners piggies is actually a term of endearment.

TEASER: Review of Mark Wahlberg’s Infinite – The Dumb Guy Matrix

Teaser, , ,

Hey all, this week’s Patreon-only Frotcast is a review of a powerful new dumb guy movie that you need to see as soon as it’s released: Infinite. You can absolutely listen to the episode without having seen the movie so please become a Patreon subscriber.

—-DESCRIPTION—-

“Have you ever had a dream so real you thought you actually said hi to your mother for me?” This week, Vince and Matt watched the brand new Mark Wahlberg sci-fi action flick “Infinite” which takes place in a world where a select group of people can remember their past lives and are fighting about it for some reason. In a nutshell, it’s a Matrix/Bourne Identity/Cloud Atlas mash-up for people with traumatic brain injuries. It’s peak dumb guy stuff. So of course we strongly recommend you watch this movie immediately. Enjoy!

Frotcast 473 – The DeVil Wears Doggos

movies, , , , , , , , ,

It’s time for your regularly scheduled program, the Filmdrunk Frotcast with Vince Mancini and Matt Lieb. This week, the boys watched the brand new Disney Plus movie event Cruella, an origin story for the fashionista/dog murdering villain from 101 Dalmatians. I’m positive this joke has been made before but it’s basically The Joker without all of that pesky incel energy. It’s a touching film about a #GirlBoss who slays the patriarchy on her long road to eventually slaying dogs. Run, don’t walk, to your nearest smart TV and stream it now.

We also discuss Bo Burnham’s new comedy special Inside as well as Ellie Kemper’s recent kerfuffle with being crowned the Yellow Queen at the KKK prom or something. Finally, Laremy Legal makes an appearance. Enjoy!

TEASER: Patreon review of “Those Who Wish Wish Me Dead” on HBO Max

Teaser, ,

Subscribe to the frotcast Patreon for Matt and Vince content between seasons of Pod Yourself A Gun!

Description:

Of all of the movie roles that Angelina Jolie has chosen not to pass on in her long and illustrious career, this one might be the absolute worst. This week on your favorite podcast, Vince and Matt invite PYAG producer Brent Flyberg to the virtual Frotquarters to talk HBO Max’s “Those Who Wish Me Dead” – a movie where Angelina Jolie plays a firefighter who can’t run and has to save a child from a team of hitmen who want him dead for no real reason on the order of Tyler Perry. It’s inexplicable. It makes no sense. And, in a way, it’s glorious. It’s like a movie written by cocaine. Like if cocaine got the Dr Frankenstein treatment, was zapped into being and decided to write a screenplay. We also talk about Bill Gates again, the dark side of Bob Ross and how Mr. Rogers definitely had some skeletons in his closet. It’s a great episode. Enjoy!

Matt Lieb is an open book, isn’t he, folks? And that’s why we love him, he can’t help but just share his entire self with you, the Patreon piggies. This week, there’s big news in Matt’s life: he’s engaged to be married! To Francesca, who he loves. Matt dishes all the engagement details to Vince and Laremy, from how he proposed to the price of his ring to his plan to get a different, better ring. But it’s not just wedding bells this week, institution bells are also ringing. Sorry, I don’t think they actually have bells, but Matt’s dad has been institutionalized. Damn, this got dark. To dig us out of that hole we talk about newly divorced dad, Bill Gates, and whether Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos will become the superior divorced dad billionaire super villain. Beyond Bill and Bezos there’s also Ben, Affleck that is, who got “caught” (if you can call it that) doing regular ass divorced dad stuff like tryna holla at girls on dating apps. Not the trash dating apps piggies like you use, the special ones for celebrities, that you can only be on if you’re a big star like Ben Affleck or some random Tik Toker who will share videos of Ben Affleck tryna holla. Boy, this was a journey. Also, Laremy is here! Everyone loves Laremy.

TEASER: Frotcast 469 – Oscars, With Brent Flyberg

Get the full episode by becoming a Patreon at Patreon.com/Frotcast

It was Oscars week this past week, and you know what that means. The glitz! The glamour! The poorly-conceived bits! Da Butt! Pod Yourself A Gun producer and LA comedian/host of the Reactivaders podcast Brent Flyberg joins Vince and Matt as we DIG IN, to all of the various Oscar controversies and keep our piggies’ greedy snouts filled with slop. Is Hollywood too out of touch and that’s why no one wanted to watch the Oscars? Is it PC culture run amok when Adrien Brody can’t even force Halle Berry to make out with him onstage anymore? And has Donald Trump reached his ultimate form in becoming the guy who emails his complaints about the Oscars to media outlets? We discuss all this and more, like whether we’re going to go bald and how quickly Prince William went from young handsome heartthrob to British-looking British man who looks just like Prince Charles. Finally we catch up with Doug Ellin and the cast of Entourage, who apparently have a new podcast out about Entourage and how great it was, and how HBO is too PC now to do an Entourage remake, or let the Entourage boys continue making money from Entourage. Cancel culture is out of control! Let Doug Ellin buy another house you Feminazis!
