Frotcast 598: The Late Great Thelma, with Miles Klee

Tune in for the thrilling conclusion to last week’s Frotcast! Has Matt been committed to a mental health facility yet? What’s the deal with his car? Why do women be shoppin?

Today we welcome the excellent writer Miles Klee, who gave himself brain poisoning as a public service in order to answer the question that’s on all our minds: why does Trump keep talking about Hannibal Lecter in his speeches? In the course of the answer, we actually make an attempt to careen wildly into political analysis, but please don’t let that deter you from listening.

We close out by discussing Thelma, the gritty Thelma & Louise origin story. Sorry, I made that up; if anything it’s the origin story to the scammer from The Beekeper. It’s a great flick; the sexual tension between June Squibb and Richard Rountree is PALPABLE. Fred Hechlinger and Parker Posey are stellar as always.
