Matt Lieb, Live From a Toilet in Sedona [Teaser]
Jan 200:04:44Tap to summarizePLEASE SIGN UP ON PATREON, EVEN IF IT’S FOR FREE! Posting everything here has become a burden, and if you’re only listening to this feed you probably aren’t getting all of the episodes. Sign up now at Patreon. It’s two podcasts (Pod Yourself and the Frotcast) for the price of one! Patreon dot com slash frotcast! This is just a teaser, but you can hear the full episode by signing up on Patreon. This week, Matt is unhappily parenting, or maybe just looking for parking, in Sedona, Arizona, and Brendan is fixing an exploding pool pump, but that’s no reason to fret, because we’re ringing in the year with Sean Keane, from the Roundball Rock podcast and soon to be playing Cobb’s Comedy Club this January 7th in San Francisco.We’re discussing New Year’s Eve, and how it’s by far the most overrated holiday, but also mourning the death of a true poster, Mike Fossey, aka Mike F, by reading a few of his greatest posts. Then we mourn our dead The Wire actors, Ziggy and Clay Davis, and I tell the story of my one Isiah Whitlock Jr. encounter, which Matt rudely interrupts to call in from Sedona, Arizona while he’s in the middle of pooping. He tells us all about the crystal vortex and why he hates vacation parenting and thinks everyone in Sedona is actually on drugs.After that, we discuss Gwyneth Paltrow’s journey from actress to Goop CEO and back to actress again (Sean read a book!), and since it’s year-end list season, we review the one awards season film that Sean has seen, which happens to be Jay Kelly. Didja ever notice that Jay Kelly would’ve been much better if it had been about Adam Sandler’s character? Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? That leads into a bunch of related discussions, about American Beauty, Ben Affleck’s greatest roles and how well he lays pipe. And also Is This Thing On? and movies about stand-up comedy just generally.The regular Frot boys will be back next week, but in the meantime hope you like Sean and I just bullshitting about movies for a while. As always, no refunds.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

[UNLOCKED] Frotcast 657: Have You Heard the Good Nuzz?
Dec 501:17:52Tap to summarizeThis Thanksgiving, we at Frotcast HQ would like to collectively give thanks to you, our listeners. And also to RFK Jr for answering all the questions we have about what it’s like for a 70 year old guy to text you demanding you drink his cum. The question we’d still like to have answered is, “is it weirder to be the aforementioned 70 year old, or a 30 year old who’s totally into it?” This marks two straight episodes of Nuzzi discussion, let’s hope Ryan Lizza drops even more disgusting revelations over the holiday so we can shoot for three. Chuck Grassley POV video? Lauren Boebert interracial gangbang? Mitch McConnell Goatse?Next, thanks to Elon Musk of all people, we now know that the last decade of American politics has mostly been about literally making up a guy to be mad about. Yep, it turns out that the platform that Elon tried to back out of buying due to the bot problem has a bot problem. We’re sorry you had to find out all those hot patriotic fefos of yours are actually a Macedonian guy. In this week’s big news, our Big Beautiful President has successfully bullied Paramount into making Rush Hour 4. No word yet on how exactly 71 year old Jackie Chan is going to be able to make that happen, but surely this will be the feat that finally earns the big man his Nobel Peace Prize. Brett Ratner redemption arc, here we come (while eating shrimp cocktail)!Have a great holiday everyone, Happy Thanksgiving to you and your new life partner Dragomir.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Nov 2801:54:36Tap to summarizeA Christmas Miracle for the Guys who Invented the Concept of Christmas MiraclesShut the door. Have a seat. We have some bad news. This is the last episode of this season of the pod. We also have some good news. Comedian Katrina Davis returns to talk to Matt & Vince about Mad Men season three episode thirteen, “Shut the Door. Have a Seat.”It’s nearly Christmas ‘63 and those bastards at McCann Erickson are buying Putnam, Powell, Lowe, Sterling & Cooper. Why? So they can be McCann, Erickson, Putnam, Powell, Lowe, Sterling, & Cooper? Sounds more like a lacrosse roster than an advertising agency. Don has no choice but to make Lane fire him so he can round up an alcoholic ad man superteam and poach as many clients as possible on the way out. It’s like Ocean’s Eleven, but with more paperwork.What can’t the guy do? Maintain a marriage. While all that’s going on, Betty prepares to fly Reno with Henry because the only grounds for divorce in New York at the time were absence of a spouse, incurable insanity, life imprisonment, or adultery. She could have caught him on that last one but whoopsy, she’s an adulterer too. What’s your home address and social security number? Tell us in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.

Nov 2101:40:38Tap to summarizeEveryone Remembers Where They Were When Duck Had Sex with PeggyPour one out for Jack Kennedy and throw on this week’s episode of the pod. Host of the Hyperfixed podcast, Alex Goldman joins Matt and Vince to discuss Mad Men season three episode twelve, “The Grown Ups.”They killed Kennedy and now Don’s marriage, and Margaret’s wedding, are ruined. Betty watches a Lee Harvey Oswald die on live tv and presumably wishes it were Don instead, so she goes to her side piece to admit she wants out. The Draper’s still have to go to Roger’s daughter’s wedding, but there’s a real who died? kind of vibe. The only person who isn’t going to let the president’s splattered brains spoil his good time is Duck Phillips. He unplugs the television before Peggy comes over so he can give her another go-around like she’s never had before. Unless it’s like the go-around he gave her a few episodes back. You have to imagine it’s basically the same. We’ve seen nothing to indicate that Duck is a creative guy. He probably thinks woman-on-top is scandalous.

Nov 1401:41:07Tap to summarizeThe Mistress and the CarRetrieve your horsemeat gabbagool, you’ll want something to nosh on while you listen to this week’s episode with David J. Roth from Defector, The Distraction, and It’s Christmastown podcasts, joining Matt and Vince to talk about Mad Men season three episode eleven, “The Gypsy and the Hobo.”In America, horses are our friends. At least that’s what David told some nice Italian folks who tried to serve him cured horse meat. In 1962, horses were both our friends, and our dog’s food, and Americans were struggling with this dichotomy. Enter Annabelle Mathis, CEO of a horsemeaty dog food company, and Roger’s old flame. She wants Sterling Cooper’s help to convince people that it’s fine for Lassie to eat Secretariat. She also wants one more roll in the hay with Roger, but he’s more interested in telling her she’s an ugly old hag who blew it when she left him. In his defense, when he drinks, he gets really funny. Back at the Draper residence, Betty confronts Don about his box full of secrets, and spills the beans. He admits everything. Everything other than the fact that he left his daughter’s teacher in the car down the street to sit and wait while he finally gets (mostly) honest with his wife. In his defense, the teacher is really pretty. Where did you think Sam Elliot was from?

Transcribe →Mad Yourself A Man 204: Three Sundays, with Emma Vigeland
Apr 11, 202501:26:40Tap to summarizeBless Me Horny Father For I Have ChasedShel Keneely is out, but political commentator and co-host of the Majority Report, Emma Vigeland, is in. She joins Matt & Vince to talk about Mad Men season two episode four “Three Sundays.”Don and the gang are chasing American Airlines, even coming in on Good Friday in their casual wear to workshop a pitch that doesn’t remind everyone of the horrible plane crash. While they’re all hard at work, Sally is drinking her dad’s booze, chasing that perfect feeling you only get from the right amount of rye. There’s also a new horny priest in town, and he’s maybe chasing Peggy? Colin Hanks is the new holy man in the Olsen family’s life, and as Emma points out, him and Peggy have sort of a Father Intentola/ Carmella Soprano will they/won’t they thing going on. He never brings Peggy any DVDS to watch, but he also doesn’t bust in his pants in her living room. So it’s a toss-up for best horny priest in Pod Yourself history.

Mar 21, 202501:40:17Tap to summarizeDrew Magary from Defector, SFGate and The Distraction podcast joins Matt & Vince to kick off season two by discussing Mad Men season two episode one, “For Those Who Think Young.”Before we get into this week’s episode, a quick victory lap to celebrate our appearance on (Celebrity) Jeopardy! That’s right, Ken Jennings himself had to say “Pod Yourself A Gun” on national television. Phase one of our complete media takeover has begun. Next we get Michael Barbarro to say “Lum lum lum” on The Daily.In this week’s episode, it’s Valentine’s Day, and Don has high blood pressure everywhere but his penis. That’s right, he can’t perform sexually for Betty because… the American dream is a lie? The thrill of stealing another man’s identity has worn off? He drinks a pint of rye a day? Whatever the reason, you can avoid this problem, dear listener, by going to Bluechew.com and using promo code LUMLUMLUM for half off your first batch of boner pills (Bluechew, hit us up - we definitely have listeners who need your pills).Tell us how old you think Matt & Vince look in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.

Transcribe →Mad Yourself A Man 202: Flight 1, with Sean Keane
Mar 21, 202501:33:47Tap to summarizeJamaican Me Dad DieDon’t think about the president gutting the FAA, just listen to the latest edition of MYAM with Comedian and co-host of the Roundball Rock podcast, Sean Keane joining Matt and Vince to discuss Mad Men season two episode two, “Flight 1.”RIPete’s dad. In this episode, the Campbell paterfamilias dies in the American Airlines plane crash that everyone in the Sterling Cooper office is joking about. The tragic aviation accident that killed one of their peers is not just laughing matter to these mad men, no, it’s also a business opportunity. Duck thinks American Airlines might want to make some new ads. You know, some print ads that draw attention away from the 95 bodies at the bottom of Jamaica Bay, and towards the skirts on the stewardesses. Meanwhile, Paul and Joan get in a fight because Paul is a phony and Joan is both racist and 31. Paul puts her on blast by revealing her age to everyone in the office, because in 1960s America it was much worse to be a 31-year-old woman than to be racist. Don’t think about which is more socially acceptable in 2025 America. Just focus on the pod. Give us your best plane crash zinger in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts.
