Frotcast 273: ‘Creed,’ Hoodslam, Donald Trump, And ‘The Big Short’

Listen on the player above, or download as an mp3 here (right-click, save as).

This week’s show: Is Creed the first boxing movie about a black boxer? The fact that none of us can think of another one says enough. This week we talk Creed, and about Hoodslam, the pro wrestling event we went to in Oakland, play the royalty-free music freestyle challenge, discuss The Big Short, and get an update from Ben, now that he’s back in the country. This week’s Frotcrew: Vince Mancini, Matt Lieb, and SF comedian by way of Somerville, Mass., Stevie Post.
