Matt and Francesca are in Fresno with Vince Mancini and do a quick little in-person Frotcast while baby Carina is asleep. We open this week discussing the pilot who chopped down a parking garage gate because it was pissing him off. He's been charged with criminal mischief and suspended from work, but we will happily donate to his legal defense because we believe this man is all of us, fighting back against automation that doesn't work and taking a few whacks for the human spirit. Meanwhile, we talk about what could've possibly made Britney Spears divorce her CGI husband and read a hilarious old profile about Mr. Spears' two feuding Svengalis. It's a fun time! Listen and share so we can get more piggies!

Jerry Seinfeld says he couldn't away with all those edgy Seinfeld episodes nowadays because people are so woke and leftist! I mean WHAT. IS. THE DEAL? We try to figure out what Jerry is angry about or if he's even angry at all in this week's installment of Today's Dumb Story Everyone Is Talking About For Some Reason. Why don't they build the WHOLE PLANE out of wokness. You also won't want to miss the story about what Kirstie Alley's parents were wearing when they died in a car crash. We take some time to meet the man who called his city council leaders "fat, ugly b*tches" and learn all about his tick-removing device and why he's so mad about someone trying to fill the potholes in his Finally, we've got the latest in terrible AI trends, from Will.i.am's robot cohost to a service that will automatically spam links to your product in Reddit threads.

[TEASER] This week's Frotcast

Get the full episode at Patreon.com/Frotcast! Once upon a time, the Sopranos (James Gandolfini and Edie Falco) made a video to try to get Lebron James to come to the New York Knicks. Roundball Rock podcast host Sean Keane alerted us to this fact years ago, but until recently, almost no one outside of Lebron had actually seen the video. Well now it has finally surfaced and we get to listen to it. Other topics include the producer who doesn't think Sydney Sweeney is attractive or talented, the Netflix true crime documentary that used AI to make fake pictures, and the Hollywood people who claim they can't sell Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis.

Teaser: Frotcast 585 - The Sopranos Recruit Lebron

“It feels like the moment when David Simon’s twitter persona finally gained the upperhand on David Simon the TV writer.” -David J. Roth Well, we did it. We podded ourselves the whole Wire. The closer, Defector.com founder, and natural po-dcaster David J. Roth joins Matt & Vince to talk (at great length!) about The Wire’s finale, season five episode ten “-30-” Was it the best season of The Wire? Universally from guests and hosts alike, no, it was not the best season. Was it a good season? Sort of depends on who you ask. Matt & Vince are noted season five defenders. They love reporting, shoe leather, shoe leather reporting, and corpse penis shots, and this season delivers on all those fronts, so that’s not surprising. David has a higher opinion than episode eight guest Dave from Dopey, but agrees with many past guests that it can’t live up to the heights of seasons three and four.  The finale has some satisfying moments. Scott Templeton’s weaselry is finally called out by Gus and Jimmy, though he is rewarded for his fabrications with what we think is a Pulitzer. Do any of our listeners know what a Pulitzer looks like? Lol of course not. Our listeners are more likely to know what delinquent child support summons looks like than a Pulitzer (no offense).  We also get Jimmy’s funeral. Don’t worry, you didn’t miss anything, he doesn’t die, but Officer McNulty sort of does, and he gets a proper copper funeral scene that, according to Dominic West, the actors were all legitimately drunk to film. So method. Really committed to the craft. Stick around to find out what show we do next (Alf). We haven’t decided yet (it’s going to be Alf or I stg I will b*mb a federal building – just kidding please don’t call the cops), so tell us what show we should do next in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.  Email us at frotcast@gmail.com; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030 Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.
