Episode 33: Jake Armstrong

Posted in ffafpodcasts with tags , , , on 09/18/2012 by ffafcast

Joel bathes in potty-humor and Alan bleeds out of his head as they answer listener mail.  Then pre-sober post-carny Lucy-Liu-love’n Jake “Bourbon-Fingers” Armstrong stops by to discuss his rags-to-riches-to-rags tale of award-winning animation success, secrets of the human nasal-cavity, and how to cheat death.  The denouement will catharsisize your empathy.

Episode 27: Dino Stamatopoulos

Posted in ffafpodcasts with tags , , , on 10/30/2011 by ffafcast

Live, from the Ottawa International Animation Festival 2011, entertainment’s own comedy pangea, Dino Stamatopoulos, is paid to sit down with the very Joel Frenzer and Alan Foreman for the most overmodulated audiophonic conver-sensation* about his animated series Morel Orel and Mary Shelley’s Frankenhole.  Topics include: writing for adult animated comedy while drinking, drinking for adult animated comedy while writing, star-shaped facial hair, adopting classical horror literary author names into titular innuendo forever linking them historically, and poutine.

Update: Season 2 of Mary Shelley’s Frankenhole will now debut December 11th on Adult Swim!!!  Watch it!!!

*Note 1: We apologize for the audio quality but, to be honest, the show would’ve been too perfect if otherwise, thus rendering all other art meaningless.  So, really, you are welcome.
