To Be Frank

Frank Castillo is back in Austin and high as hell, diving into a hilariously dark and thoughtful sesh with Cleveland comic and mortuary transport driver Chris Paugh.

They riff on intrusive thoughts, sketchy fast food addictions, and the weird healing power of improvised roasting. Toss in childhood trauma, parenting through stand-up, and a severed-hand Social Security scam—and you've got one of the wildest and most unexpectedly touching To Be Frank episodes yet.
