Frotcast 625: Fartin with Martin (Martin Madness, 'Nothing to Lose' Edition) (Patreon)

We’re back after a week off spent celebrating the joys of homeownership. The American Dream baby! 

The real reason we’re here is because it’s Martin March (Mart Madness?)! Today we discuss 1997’s Nothing To Lose, a classic buddy crime caper that we all forgot existed. Tim Robbins co-stars as the stuffy white foil to Martin’s zany brand of 90s “urban” antics. I hope we’re not starting to sound repetitive here, but this movie starring Martin Lawrence is both not great and eminently watchable. Top shelf TNT banger, this one. Also, Brendan calls Giancarlo Esposito “Giancarlo Stanton”.

Snow White premiered this week, and because Matt Lieb is on the show he has to make it alllllll about Israel. He even goes on to make it about himself by reading a death threat he received on X. Anyway, Disney finds themselves sitting on a box office dud while standing astride two angry mobs like Larry David at the Palestinian Chicken restaurant. In fact, there are at least three angry mobs, what with the Nazis being angry about the Snow White actress being half Colombian and probably some other exhausting bullshit.

We also break down Airport Theory, which posits: show up 15 minutes before your flight and still make it. Why, that doesn’t sound like a theory at all! Shouldn’t a theory be an explanation of  something, backed by empirical data? Not if you’re a TikTok dipshit! Anyway, for a good time, search Airport Theory on TikTok to laugh at all the people who missed their flights. This leads to discussions of other theories dumb guys made up during the pandemic. 

I have a theory that this post is over.
