Frotcast 605: Rabble Ridge, with Jeremy Saulnier (Director of 'Rebel Ridge') (Patreon)

Please everyone give a warm welcome back to Matt’s calamitous touring life! Hot off the heels of his automotive disaster, our intrepid future Mossad assassination target gets a kidney stone and ends up at a physical hospital/mental hospital. Only in New York baby!!!!! I’m at the hospital/ I’m at the looney bin/ I’m at the combination hospital and looney bin!

Speaking of Taco Bell, Donald Trump invented a new kind of gun he calls the AK-47 Supreme, which Vince posits is just a regular AK-47 with tomatoes and sour cream [Vince's note: I made a point to say I stole this joke from Rachel Fisher]. This leads into a discussion about the political incoherence of both would-be presidential assassins. Perhaps it was a poor idea to simultaneously destroy the social safety net for those struggling with mental illness and flood the country with guns, but hindsight is 20/20.

Jeremy Saulnier joins us to discuss his new film, Rebel Ridge, now playing on Netflix. He graciously fields our very stupid questions and provides some great insights into the process of making a movie and how it very nearly didn’t get made. Other topics we touch on are jiu-jitsu, Iron Maiden, civil asset forfeiture, Gwar, DC burbs culture, and Glenn Danzig.

We finish up with a harrowing account of a poor, young, impressionable, 57 year old political aide’s devastating cunnilingus injury.

Give Rebel Ridge a watch on Netflix, and we’ll hopefully see you soon with some sweet, sweet bonus #content
