Welcome to this week’s Frotcast, where we try in vain once again to humiliate Matt to death like a French livestreamer. Oh well, there’s always next week.

First up, ladies and gentlemen, the swagless wonder of the 21st century, Andrew Cuomo! He’s really still trying to do this everybody! Never give up hope!! Especially if Vince discovers that you sound a lot like Lou Ferrigno.

Next, we name names, folks. That’s right, the names of the Ole Miss Sigma Nu pledges are hot off the presses, and we can’t wait to see what these up and coming prospects get cancelled for in the coming years. Lots of value in the middle round of this class.

Of course, we need to talk about Cracker Barrel and the uhhhhh fuck this is exhausting you should probably just fast forward this part.

We close out by answering the most important questions about the pennyante political scandal that is rocking the NYC mayor’s race. Notably, what’s a few simoleons in a half-eaten bag of chips between pals? Does it matter that the pal in question is a reporter covering the political campaign the bag of chips giver works for? Why you gotta bring up old shit???

We are serving cunt on the Frotcast and we cannot. Even. Stop!

This week we serve up our listeners a cunt named Brian Abrams, a guy who’s seen way more movies than Vince and author of “You Talkin' to Me?" The Definitive Guide to Iconic Movie Quotes. Brian joins us for the main subject of this week’s episode, Ari Aster’s latest film Eddington. Unfortunately, we drag him into some very stupid topics before we get there. Sorry Brian.

We get down to brass tacks right away- every man has a price, and Matt’s is $20,000. That’s right folks, he’s run plum out of royalty freestyle ideas, so now he has to whore out that sweet, sweet man-ass of his.

Next up, the 46-year-old French guy who got humiliated to death while streaming. That’s right folks, GERARD DEPARDIEU IS DEAD (pause for Kevin Eubanks to stop laughing).

Now throw in Cuomo’s swagless social media, Jordan Peterson’s mold problem, and important news from the President of Space, Kevin Spacey (we beg you, don't overthink the bits), and you got yourself a B+ of a pod, baby.

Find Brian on his website, Letterboxd, and TikTok.

This week, Dave Weigel from Semafor joins the Frotcast to tell us all about Partners, a 1982 gay-themed buddy action comedy starring John Hurt. Okay, not really, he's mostly here to discuss Zohran Mamdani's win in the Democratic primary for NYC mayor. But we definitely WOULD'VE talked a lot more about Partners if Dave hadn't waited until the end to bring it up.

I actually had a big bummer of a show planned, about how Israel goaded the president into bombing Iran and congressional Dems hadn't even decided whether to be angry about it yet, but then Mamdani won a primary and a lot of those same establishment Dems got kicked in the teeth. Frankly I didn't know that much about Mamdani other than that all the worst people in the world seemed to be doing a lot of scaremongering about him (most of which only made him sound kinda cool).

Dave joins us from "across the pond" (how I describe the East Coast) to break down what it all means, and especially to answer the big questions: are good things possible? How soon will I be disappointed?

Meanwhile, Brendan is back from Ireland and has seen 'Kneecap' (the movie, he didn't get to see the group play music), and Matt is back from Hawaii. So we discuss all of the biggest issues those trips brought to light, such as biffos between delivery drivers and the impossibility of a relaxing vacation as a parent.

This week on the Frotcast, we're getting updates on the Diddy situation and exactly what his penchant for cuckoldry looks like, and along with it a glimpse into the life of a male sex worker. Is it rad? Maybe for the first 45 minutes, but then what? We're also breaking down Trump's latest riff about "the fat shot," and trying to figure out how he can be so good at riffing and pretty much nothing else. Finally, we round things out with a profile of Air BnB CEO Brian Chesky, who is busy trying to turn his successful business that is good at doing one specific thing into a really annoying-sounding one that tries to do everything. Why are tech guys like this? There are answers to this, both personally and societally, but basically this is why we all dread every app update now. The market simply cannot leave well enough alone. The invisible hand of the market is holding a dang monkey wrench! I tell ya!

“Too many characters for my liking.” -Django Gold

Throw on your best Mitchell & Ness throwback jersey, it’s time for a new episode of the pod. This week, comedian Django Gold joins Matt and Vince to plug his new stand-up special Bag Of Tricks (available on YouTube now) and break down The Wire season four episode two, “Soft Eyes.”

Everybody’s going back to school. Not just our new young characters, even Bubbles and Prezbo are bumping into each other in the hallway and giving eachother a nod that says, “lol damn what are either of us doing here?”

Even with school around the corner, Namond’s parents are pressuring him to be a better drug dealer. These kids are millennials right? Do these parents realize Namond has to sell like four times as much drugs as Wee-Bey did to afford like half as many tropical fish?

Jessica Sele is back on the Frotcast talking about seeing Les Mis. Also, the boys saw Adam Sandler's new kids movie You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah. 

This week Matt and Vince welcome Sean Keane back to the virtual frotquarters just hours before his European vacation. We talk about the lady who wouldn't let her husband watch the nudity in Oppenheimer, and whether this is anti-sex scene discourse or just recovering sex addition discourse. Then we shift into the magical world of AI porn, in which a simple request like "hands on hips" will make your lady's horse penis disappear, and no one wants that. Well, maybe a few people do. Then we ask Sean about Hard Knocks, the four levels of competitor, and whether coaches and business leaders are any different anymore. And of course, there are some good Trump clips. 

Hey everyone, the frot is back and once again Vince came to LA to frot (and to take Joey Devine out to a Top Chef dinner event.) In this episode we talk Ben Affleck's Air and Johnny Depp's McDonalds analogy. Watch it or listen, we don't care.

Watch it here. 

Buy tickets to see me and Jessica Sele at the SF Punchline May 31st at 8pm in San Francisco.
