On this week’s Frotcast, the plan was to talk to Justin Halpern and Patrick Schumacker, the creative team behind CBS’ upcoming show Sh*t My Dad Says, based on Halpern’s best-selling book and Twitter account, and then review The Other Guys and talk movie news and UFC. Our interview went longer than expected, so we decided to post it now and save the rest for later in the week. We discuss many things, I ask them your insulting questions from Facebook and Twitter, and we find out:
- What Shatner is like — will there be a Sh*t The Shat Says DVD feature?
- What it’s like to fire the actor playing you
- How life writing a TV show is different from blogging (Justin once wrote for HolyTaco and Schumacker was the head writer for ScreenJunkies before the show came along).
- Which celebrities Justin has farted on and how his legendary flatulence compares to mine. (Airbenders recognize our own, but there can be only one).
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. If not, be sure to insult my intelligence, family, and entire way of life. (Interview starts at -55:30 of the streaming file)

Sh*t The Shat Says is also known as Aftermath. It really is quite the train wreck.
“Tell us the process of how the show came about.”
You should have just asked him how the Earth was made.
Snap, tap, or cum? Well, that’s an easy choice for Him, Manweenyan!
“Snap, tap, or cum” was also the name of my tap-dancing crew in high school. Our turf wars were delightful.
40 hookers sound about right.
I just got bitched at at work for laughing too much at this Frotcast.
“I farted on Jennifer Love Hewitt, it made her stop eating.” She then ordered four entrees to go.
I enjoyed it, but:
You are stupid. Your family must be stupid. PUT ON SOME PANTS.
Saw the pilot. Not good. Predictable jokes that simply aren’t funny. And Shatner isn’t nearly crude enough. From teh title, I’d expect an Archie Bunker-style old-school racist/sexist pig. Not so much. There is a show buried in there somewhere, but this needs a lot of work.
