Look, if you haven’t listened to the Frotcast before, I think this one deserves your time. We interview Extremo the Clown, Portland, Oregon’s own window-painting, monkey-hand-puppet-sporting, oldies-singing clown. It gets off to a bit of a rocky start as we catch Extremo in the middle of peeing. But the dude is kooky, all kinds of entertaining (he clearly knows what he’s doing), and hopefully he won’t murder me.
After that (25 minutes in) we talk to Pajiba‘s head nerd (NERDS!!), Dustin Rowles, about The Social Network, live from the other Portland (Maine). Our spirited review includes a special appearance by our new correspondent, Armond White Hammond, who Bret hates, because he is a jerk. Check it the F out. Seriously.

This week’s intro music comes courtesy of The Crazy Ivans. To refresh you memory, here’s a few pictures of Extremo’s van, The Never Never Van.
(and this was the YouTube Extremo was talking about. I don’t why the chick was flipping him off. If you ask me, that’s a sweet got damn window)

Anybody else just notice that A-Dubs has a distinct “prepare your anus” look on his face in the pic that Vinnie always uses?
That opening song was killer.
He came OVER the Golden Gate Bridge?! Even if I abstain for a month and pinched really hard, I am only getting it over the kitchen table.
Still in love with the Never Never Van, what with its “Tragedy and Sodomy” masks so prominently in view.
/rejects any attempts to correct that statement.
A-Dubs look seems to convey superciliousness to all the ersatz verisimilitude going on behind him, Skeet Skeet!
Zero, you just gotta work on it (particularly aim). One time with Mrs. Feklahr in a hotel room, He hit a painting-print behind the bed that was near the ceiling. We called it our “modern art” experiment.

Ben, is that you, you dirty rotten space jew baktag?
Oh poderoso Fek, mi nombre no es Ben!
Let me know which frotcast I’ll be on, I’ll listen to that one
What? Ponder the numbers on Big Ben?
Extremo ain’t got shit on BUTANE THE MOTHAFUCKIN’ CLOWN! WOOP WOOP!
VINCE GOD DAMMIT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, THAT FUCKING CLOWN IS MELTING MY FUCKING MIND AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Extremo sounds like he’s a few jenkem baloons short of… OH MY GOD HE’S MELTING MY BRAIN TOO GAHHHHHHHHH
I have a newfound appreciation of Extremo and now I’m sorry I missed him at Solstice. His crazy laugh is cracking me up!
1:04:40 – Brendan says the smartest thing he’s ever uttered.
Still doesn’t make up for “pat toys”.
I with Armond White Hammond would write his reviews in the style he used to write A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court.
Damnit! I didn’t know Bruce Willis had a cameo in The Social Network.
My day job is as a priest’s assistant. Wanted to check it out here before I got home and heard the music so I turned it up. Then “the giant with the average sized penis”. Thanks. Now my boss will be hitting on me all day.
Best frotcast yet. Seriously. I laughed, I cried, I abused my children.
I’m in serious pain from having to stifle my laughter during Armond White Hammond. Especially when he became Armie White Hammer. Damn that was good.
As for the classical music you dudes are wondering about,it’s “The Hall of the Mountain King,” from Edvard Grieg’s Peer Gynt compositions.
Also, please do a podcast where there’s a segment of the 20s voice, see? It would be a real jim dandy, good golly!
All of these awkward interviews with really boring people were a great addition to the Frotcast, guys.
(And since you can’t see me I’m rolling my eyes so hard my head looks like a slot machine…)
“Why do you go after easy targets like Pete Hammond?”, asks the nasally nerd.
Yeah, why can’t you go after Sarah Palin like Pajiba does?
Extremo’s munificent, insouciant laugh — though potentially meretricious — is anathema to the post-modern milleau of Armond White Hammond’s obdurate patois. Literally.
thats the fucking gayest song ive ever heard
RoboPanda’s com cycle has dev-t to the point it’s almost engramatic and out-ethics. I must place him in the lower condition of treason! RoboPanda do us all a favor and write up your overts and witholds immediately! After which time you just might be able to increase ARC with all of us.
Things I learned from Frotcast 17: I share a birthday with Extremo the Clown and Billy Idol.
Things I didn’t learn from Frotcast 17: What the fuck a Pajiba is and what do I do if I catch it from your mom?
What the fuck… now I’m expecting to see Extremo on PBS’s Art in the Twenty-First Century.
Child rape ain’t what it used to be.
ha ha ha ha ha!
Okay, seriously, if you were to take all the mugshots of all the child rapists and put them in a catalogue…who would match more closely? The picture above of Shop 101? …or my icon? It’s no contest dude, sorry but you look like the king of the pedophile clan. In addtion I just want to say, you brought up the subject not me…are we hiding something gramps? It’s typically the people who try and fit in and be normal that are the craziest, it’s like the neighbor that says “oh and he was such a nice fellow” Okay I know what you’re thinking, yeah yeah yeah, John Wayne Gacey, one fuckin’ clown!!! But what about the other 10,000 pedophiles look just like you! ha ha ha ha! I sugest you change your icon or shut the fuck about child rape.
…you need to get laid…by an adult.
Only a fool would let that brilliant M.O. go to waste. I’ve got my eye on you, clown man.
Thanks…I enjoy the recognition. Have a fun day! I’m off to paint some more windows…in the rain.
I just heard this frotcast. I rate the Extremo the Clown interview 4.75 out 5 BOOSHES. Great job all around.
