405: Pie-o-My, with Stavros Halkias from Cum Town Mar 17, 2021

Show notes

Tony Soprano is a horse boy on the latest Pod Yourself A Gun. Stavros Halkias from the Cum Town and Pod Don’t Lie podcasts joins Matt and Vince to talk about The Sopranos season four, episode five, Pie-O-My. Before we get too far, if you’re worried about spoilers, maybe don’t listen to this episode just yet. Put it on and leave the room so we can still wet our beaks a little bit, but some future events are mentioned. There — you were warned. If you listen to this episode and hear some stuff you didn’t want to hear, that's on you. You had 20 years to prevent this. What were you waiting for, by the way? The show saved Stav’s life twice already. Meanwhile you were watching what? House of Cards? Louie? That Workaholics episode where Chris D’Elia plays himself? You're sick in the head. Anyways for all the cool, normal folks who already saw it or won’t get mad because they understand how time, television and the internet work, this is a fun episode. The guys talk about the shady origins of Stav and Vince’s surnames, the audacity of Janice Soprano, and some excuses to do heroin. They also listen to a couple voicemails and Stav offers his thoughts on who did 9/11. If you love the podcast as much as David Chase loves fat jokes, take a seat, then get off the floor because you broke another chair, and leave a five star review on Apple Podcasts.

404: The Weight, with Patrick Monahan From What A Time To Be Alive Mar 11, 2021

Show notes

Johnny Sack Loves His Curvy Wife As a teenager, Johnny Sack was often teased by his friends for his attraction to girls on the thicker side, ones who were shorter and curvier, girls that the average (basic) stunad might refer to as “chubby” or even “fat.” Then, as he became a made man and started to educate himself on issues such as feminism and how the mafia marginalizes women by portraying a very narrow and very specific standard of beauty (thin, tall, no 90lb moles on their ass), he realized Ralphie Cifaretto needed to die. Hear all about it on the latest episode of Pod Yourself A Gun. Matt and Vince are joined by Patrick Monahan from the What A Time To Be Alive podcast to discuss season 4 episode 4 of the Sopranos, "The Weight." We are officially at the halfway point, folks. This is episode 43 of 86, and as discussed on the podcast, maybe a low point for the series. Still a watch-worthy episode with a great Furio shirt and the introduction of some hitmen who have a real elderly McPoyles vibe, but as Patrick points out, it’s the closest the Sopranos comes to making a Frasier-style farce where everyone is saved by their own grace. It doesn’t make sense for these sociopaths. For these reasons, the episode receives the lowest grade the podcast has ever handed out - a solid B+.

403: Christopher, with Will Menaker From Chapo Trap House Mar 04, 2021

Show notes

In this house, we believe Columbus was a hero. Put down your stinky cheeses and your cold wines, it’s time to talk about season 4 episode 3 of the Sopranos, Christopher, with Will Menaker from the Chapo Trap House podcast. Will joins Matt and Vince from Clinton Hill Brooklyn, home to Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace. But on this podcast, the only Christopher we acknowledge is Moltisanti. Written by Michael Imperioli, the actor who plays Chrissy, the episode is divisive even among Sopranos super fans due to its focus on identity politics and a ripped-from-the-headlines plot. Originally written for Paulie, the story focuses on Sylvio’s desire to see that Columbus, and by extension all hard working Italian-Americans hanging around pork stores, get the respect they deserve. The woke mob came for Columbus, and all he did was cause enough pain and suffering to be disavowed by the psychos responsible for the Spanish Inquisition. The PC police are sure to come for Matt and Vince soon, so listen to this episode while you still can. When you get back from the Columbus day protest counter-protest, give us a five star review on Apple Podcasts. Subscribe to Pod Yourself A Gun on Apple Podcasts.

402: No Show, with Amelia Cady Feb 19, 2021

Show notes

How’s it gonna be when Stephen Jenkins sues this podcast? I hope you liked last week’s parody songs and Third Eye Blind frontman anecdotes, because the newest episode of Pod Yourself A Gun has more of both. Amelia Cady joins Matt & Vince to talk about The Sopranos Season four episode two, No Show. Listen to the podcast to hear Amelia describe Matt on Heroin, Stephen Jenkins prancing away from an argument, and how Tony Soprano’s raw animal magnetism drives her desire to exhume Gandolfini’s body so she can doo doo doo, doo doo-doo do him. Some other topics covered are Meadow Soprano's gap year ambitions, Carmela's sick Mary Higgins Clark related burn, a gay mafioso named Don Purple, Young Vince's encounter with Anthony Kiedis, and how Matt was just a little too poor to join the fingering cult. Even in their reductionism, Amelia, Matt, and Vince have quite interesting things to say about death and loss. Just getting what you want is for babies. We want five star reviews on Apple Podcasts. If you're an adult you can do that for us. Subscribe to Pod Yourself A Gun on Apple Podcasts.Email us at frotcast@gmail.com; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030.

401: For All Debts Public and Private with Max Collins of Eve 6 Feb 14, 2021

Show notes

It’s no longer the nineties on the latest Pod Yourself a Gun. Matt and Vince are joined by Max Collins of Eve 6 and the @eve6 twitter account, to discuss the first episode of Season 4 of the Sopranos, For All Debts Public and Private. Before getting into the episode, Max and Matt swap stories about their run-ins with Third Eye Blind frontman, and possibly world’s most confident man, Stephen Jenkins. The consensus is Jenkins is abrasive, but mostly a good hang. You could say people are semi-charmed by him. This is the first post 9/11 Sopranos, meaning we have officially left the nineties, so please pause here for a moment of silence to remember Matt’s mashup of Butterfly by Crazytown and Meadow Soprano saying “it’s the nineties." Thank you for respecting the moment of silence. We’re sad to see it go, but the good lord taketh and giveth because we lost that song, but we get a new song on today’s episode that is the early frontrunner for PYAG season 4’s song of the season award. Season 3’s went to Bread Pies, of course. Give it a listen, and hey, don't worry about us. We're just chipping. We've got it under control, but if you want to help us out, leave us a five star review on Apple Podcasts. That will help us get straight.

313: Army Of One, With Alan Sepinwall Dec 17, 2020

Show notes

Dreaming about lo mein on the season finale of Pod Yourself A Gun. On the latest episode, Rolling Stone chief television critic and co-author of The Sopranos Sessions, Alan Sepinwall, returns to talk to Matt and Vince about the final episode of The Sopranos season 3, "Army of One." In the last pre-9/11 Sopranos episode, everyone’s favorite fail-stunad is at it again. The principal has a DNA match on AJ's peepee, and Tony thinks military school will straighten the little piss bandit out. He'll never get to be Donald Trump’s helicopter pilot if he doesn't learn some discipline. During their talk, the guys decide when it’s okay to hit your kids, and try to find out if David Chase has heard the show. Let’s hope not! If you’ve been hiding out in the projects in Boonton, you might not know that there’s now a PYAG Patreon tier. Give us money and you too can hear your name on a podcast! We work hard all day to provide content and all kinds of scooters and bicycles. The least you could do is leave a five star review on Apple Podcasts.

312: Amour Fou, With Matt Christman From Chapo Trap House Dec 04, 2020

Show notes

Tony Soprano finally realizes he’s a mofo in this week’s Pod Yourself A Gun. Matt and Vince are joined by Matt Christman from Chapo Trap House to talk about The Sopranos season 3 episode 12, "Amour Fou." Alternate title: "Suicide by Capo." Jackie Jr. makes a move in an attempt to show he’s got balls big enough to get the respect like Scarface, but he should have stayed in watching Basic Instinct with his bro. Listen to the podcast for a non-exhaustive list of all the movies that feature a Sharon Stone nude scene. There are a lot. As far as I know, she’s never done a seductive dance to a song by Little Steven and the Lost Boys (with lead singer Steve Van Zandt aka Silvio Dante), but Annabella Sciorra does in this episode. She deserves some kind of award for convincingly pretending to love that song. Did Tony's mom ever dance like that? Is that how realized he was hooking up with his mom? Before the crank wears off, leave us a five star review on Apple Podcasts. (-Written by Brent Flyberg) Subscribe to Pod Yourself A Gun on Apple Podcasts.
