Episode 75: You Can’t Fool Me! There Ain’t No Santopadre! (featuring Frank Santopadre)
I’d be willing to bet that a significant portion of the MBCP audience would include Gilbert Gottfried’s Amazing Colossal Podcast at the top of their lists of favorites. Even now, in the untimely absence of Gilbert Gottfried himself, the ACP’s encore presentations grace our podcast feeds and remind us of that show’s value, which is indeed amazing and colossal. This is due not only to its late, lamented titular star, but also to his extraordinary partner and cohost, comedy writer and producer Frank Santopadre.
For our penultimate episode of 2024, Frank joins us for a rollicking hourlong discussion about various Marxian topics as well as Gilbert and the ACP. We’re sure you’re going to enjoy this visit with Frank as much as we did.

Official description: “Emmy-winning comedy writer and producer Frank Santopadre, renowned for co-hosting the often Marx-focused Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast, joins us for an insightful conversation.
“Frank shares how he first became a fan of the team and reveals his favorite Marx film (it’s not Go West, by the way). He also reflects on his time working with Gilbert, including memorable interviews with friends, family, and co-stars of the brothers. Frank illuminates the historical importance of these chats, as the number of people who personally knew or worked with the Marxes is rapidly dwindling.
“And yes, we’ll apologize now for the detour to Skidoo.”
Note for early birds: When a new episode is released, it might not appear at all of the locations below right away. If you visit your favorite podcast provider and the previous episode is still the most recent one you see there, be patient! And above all, don't worry.
