Pod Yourself A Gun - A Rewatch Podcast

In brief: Guest Will Poole, aka Wapplehouse, aka Kristi Yamaguccimane, from Jortscenter pod. News discussion: urine enthusiasts trying to trick AI. Movie discussion: Unabomber on Netflix.Will aka Kristi Yamaguccimane joins the Frot this week, and folks this one has it all: dumb guys singing about drinking pee, dumb guys using AI to drink pee, dumb guys who aren’t drinking pee but had they done so would have been less embarrassing than what they actually did, and the Unabomber. AI-wielding pee drinkers are using their favorite LLMs to justify drinking pee. For your health. Said pee-drinkers, with their insatiable thirst for…knowledge, are here to give you all the hot tips on how to bully AI into telling you exactly what you want to hear (in this case, that drinking pee is part of a balanced breakfast). That would seem to defeat the purpose of consulting with a machine that purports to be the sum of all human knowledge, but that hasn’t stopped pretty much any one of these AI-poisoned idiots yet. HEY GROK CREATE A METAPHOR FOR THE FOLLY OF MAN BUT PUT IT IN A MODERN CONTEXT AND MAKE IT STUPID. HEY GROK MAKE IT STUPIDER!Next, we cover the viral moment in the Jack Smith Congressional hearing where Missouri senator Eric Schmitt showed his entire ass by not knowing ball. He thought he had Smith dead to rights and revealed his Perry Mason moment, only to discover he had the wrong sport and city. Amy Klobuchar had to step in to explain the difference between the Atlanta Hawks of the NBA and the Iowa Hawkeyes of the NCAA. Imagine not being able to win an election against these guys. You would have to be a real fucking loser!Who will stand up for the grandparents? Certainly not them, that chair is comfy, the heat is set at 85 degrees, and they have arthritis! We go to Florida, where we hear the harrowing story of one gamgam’s quest to see her grandson after being cut off by her daughter, who by the way could have done much better than Darrell and is too hippy for those slacks.Finally, this week we watched Unabomber, wherein a fictional character played by Shailene Woodley fights the laws of the United States and apparently physics to apprehend the non-fictional Unabomber. It’s kind of a sci-fi. The Fault in our Star Wars. Anyway, it’s a movie about posting, both in the online and British uses of the word. Solid B+. You can read Ian K Duncan’s breakdown of the AI doomer sex cult here.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Dad Men (New Podcast Name)Just taste it. The podcast. Go ahead. Lick the phone. Writer, filmmaker, and one of this podcast’s top-three Daves, Dave Schilling, returns to chat with Matt and Vince about Mad Men season five episode eight, “Lady Lazarus.”Recession indicator: Pete’s hairline is climbing up his forehead. It’s been discussed on the pod before, but that was not natural. They were shaving his head to make him look balder than he was. Can you imagine? I don’t think I have met any man in my entire life who would be willing to look even a little bit balder for any reason. They always talk about method actors who are just being assholes offscreen, but Kartheiser is doing the real method shit.Megan doesn’t want to be a mad (wo)man anymore and quits just before Peggy and Don embarrass themselves in front of the Head of Desserts at Cool Whip (Mr. Belding). Don then listens to The Beatles and it makes him mad. He does not understand youth, and yet he married one. Tell us your first act of business as Head of Desserts in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; 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.

At the Codfish BARSDon’t go in that room. Your dad’s co-worker might be getting dome in there. Just stay here and put on this week’s episode with comedian, co-host of the Oh Hell Yeah podcast, jacked thought leader, and MYAM producer, Brent Flyberg, returning to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season five episode seven, “At the Codfish Ball.”Yes, yes, Brent Flyberg, the author of this and all other episode descriptions, is back for a third episode this season as an emergency fill-in for a guest who lost power due to the advancing consequences of climate change denial, so it’s sort of a good news, bad news situation that we’re making the best of. This episode has BARS. From Pete’s “That’s what I do,” to Peggy’s mom’s “Get a cat,” to Don’s “Lots of people who haven’t taken LSD know that, Roger,” this episode is stacked with great lines. You’ll need more context to understand what makes those bon mots memorable, but you’re watching the show, right? We’re not here to spoon feed you. What are you? Some kind of baby who needs us to explain everything to you? Grow up. Watch Mad Men on HBO Max, you little f*ckin baby. What’s your favorite era for beans?

Orange Sherbet & LSDGet in the car. We’re going to a Howard Johnson’s to eat orange sherbet. On the way, you can listen to this week’s episode with comedian and author of First Time, Long Time, Amy Silverberg, talking to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season five episode six, “Far Away Places.”The episode is broken into three vignettes focused on Don, Roger, and Peggy. Each goes to a far away place and finds self-discovery. Probably could have stayed home to do that, but then it wouldn’t be art.Don goes to a Hojo’s upstate with Megan and tries to force feed her orange sherbet. Not in like a kinky, feeder fetish way, so keep it in your pants, sickos. No, it’s more of a classic controlling husband sort of way, and when she’s not receptive to it, he drives off without her. His self-discovery: he’s been too horny to work hard.Peggy goes to Mars, sort of. Ginsberg tells her he was born there, and definitely not in a concentration camp. Her self-discovery: She has been working too hard to be horny. Roger’s far away place is the depths of his own mind, man. He drops acid with Jane and a bunch of her intellectual friends. His self-discovery: he’s no longer horny for being married to Jane. Tell us when you liked us, if you ever did, in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; 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.

Chewing Gum on His Pubis As soon as we start this podcast, we warn you, it will be too late to run. Writer, podcaster, and Defector.com editor and co-founder, David J. Roth returns to chat with Matt & Vince about Mad Men season five episode five, “Signal 30.”Pete’s a lot like Rodney Dangerfield in this episode. He gets no respect and he’s going back to school. He’s taking driver’s ed with a bunch of teens, and one of them has feet that catch his eye, but he gets mogged by a high school quarterback-looking-ass teen, because as much as he wants to be like Don, he has the social skills of coxswain-looking-ass teen.For a brief moment, Pete has a shred of Don’s respect after Trudy finally tricks the Drapers into visiting the Campbell’s suburban home, giving Don a glimpse of Pete's seemingly happy wife and happy life, but he pisses it away when he indulges in some sex work to impress Lane’s friend at Jaguar. After Mr. Jaguar’s wife finds chewing gum on his pubis, SCDP loses the account, resulting in a conference room donnybrook between Pete “grimy little pimp” and Lane “Mr. Toad” Price. Pete loses and he gets no respect at all I tell ya. Tell us why Wilt Chamberlain might want to lie down in Pete’s record cabinet in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; 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.
