Today, we move slightly away from our usual conversation with a cult movie superstar to talk to a cult movie semi-star, comedy writer, podcaster, and all around encyclopedia of character actors and obscure Hollywood trivia, Frank Santopadre. In part one, we talk about growing up in Queens, the joys of digging through comic book bins, Ralph Manza's recognizable mug, opening for Brother Theodore, and writing for Larry Bud Melman. We also talk about being a submissive wolfman, the cringe factor of looking back at early works, and the Zen riddle of which classic Hollywood comedian had the biggest porn collection.
