[UNLOCKED] Frotcast 555 - Justice for the Axe Pilot, with Francesca Fiorentini Aug 21, 2023

Show notes

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!

[The Wire] 312: Mission Accomplished, with Jack O'Brien of The Daily Zeitgeist Aug 17, 2023

Show notes

“If they had just run Carcetti, we wouldn’t be in this mess, as a country.” - Jack O’Brien

For the season finale, Matt and Vince invite host of The Daily Zeitgeist and Miles and Jack Got Mad Boosties podcasts, Jack O’Brien, to talk about season three episode 12 of The Wire, “Mission Accomplished”

Jimmy sad. He never got to gloat to Stringer about catching Stringer on THE WIRE. You would think the show called The Wire would prominently feature said wire, but even when the wire finally pays off, it doesn’t matter because some guys with a big gun and a small gun were all like KA-CHOW and BLAT BLAT BLAT. It’s probably some kind of Iraq war metaphor. This show loves that shit.

There’s a much more obvious Iraq war metaphor later when Slim Charles insists that Avon has to fight a war with Marlo even if it’s based on a lie because you can’t just stop being at war. Slim Charles is Cheney? Avon is Bush? That would make Stringer… the Twin Towers? Heroin is definitely oil. You know what? You do the metaphor math if you want. The season’s over. It’s basically summer vacation for me. I’m done with math, metaphors, art, Rock & Roll McDonaldses, and Baltimore accents for a while. See you next season, you filthy little sucklings.

[The Wire] 311: Middle Ground, with Dave from Dopey Aug 10, 2023

Show notes

“Live slow and die unfulfilled. That's my motto.” -Dopey Dave

For the penultimate episode of the season, Matt & Vince called in a Day of the Jackal motherfucker, writer, and host of the Dopey Podcast, Dopey Dave to break down The Wire season three, episode eleven, “Middle Ground.”

We say goodbye to West Baltimore’s sexiest drug kingpin and aspiring real estate mogul. Just when Jimmy and the gang think they got Stringer Bell (finally utilizing the titular wire!) it’s actually Brother Mouzzone & Omar, by way of Avon’s betrayal, who remove one B from B&B Enterprises. We’ll miss his hustle grindset, his community college business wisdom, his perfectly manicured goatee, and his (we assume) huge hog most of all. RIP String. Enjoy that grand copy shop in the sky.

Dry your tears, there’s some fun stuff too. Avon and Slim Charles give Cutty 15k for his boxing gym and it’s always nice to see when the hardened criminals are just friends having fun, talking about athletic equipment and glass foreheads. Even more fun, the introduction of another new porno mag. One of Baltimore’s finest can’t put down his issue of Irish Lasses long enough to help Jimmy find something called a triggerfish machine.

[The Wire] 310: Reformation, with Francesca Fiorentini Aug 03, 2023

Show notes

“I had a four year obsession with Kevin Spacey.” Francesca Fiorentini

Give the kind an iPad, she’ll be fine. Mommy and daddy are talking about The Wire. Joining Matt & Vince on the pod is writer, comedian, host of the Bitchuation Room Podcast, the owner of kevinsangel@hotmail.com, and *Borat voice* Matt’s Wife, Francesca Fiorentini, to talk about season three, episode 10, “Reformation.”

Hey in case you haven’t figured it out, The Wire is about the war in Iraq. Yes it’s about the war on drugs in Baltimore, but it’s also art so the cops are US troops, West Baltimore is Baghdad, Avon is Saddam Hussein, and Stringer is… Uday? Look, it’s not a perfect one to one. The point is, we were lied to, and the WMDs we were promised were not the high-test.

This is the episode where we see Rawls at a gay club. Just chilling. No one in the entire run of <em>The Wire</em> looks happier than Rawls at the club in his sweater holding a glass full of what I assume is mid-shelf scotch. Would be kind of beautiful if he weren’t such a heinous bastard.

[The Wire] 309: Slapstick, with Allison Mick Jul 27, 2023

Show notes

“I didn’t like that they shot Omar’s grandma in the butt and pissed on her church crown.” -Allison Mick

There are rumors flying around that Gerard and Sapper shot Omar’s grandma in the ass, pissed on her church crown, and waved their weiners at her, but Matt & Vince invited writer & comedian Allison Mick to clear things up while talking about The Wire season three, episode nine, “Slapstick.”

Stringer and Avon continue to butt heads over how to handle the Marlo situation, while Jimmy and Lester butt heads over the importance of hobbies. As Lester puts it, “The job will not save you,” and in Prezbo’s case, the job might cause you to kill another cop. Yep this is the episode where somewhat reformed fuck-up Prezbo does one, last, huge fuck-up on his way out the door. He killed Derrick and his career with one shot. Still better accuracy than most cops, probably.

Do you think Jimmy ate that Chinese takeout after they realized Prezbo killed a cop? Tell us in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.
