[The Wire] 505: React Quotes, with Ashley Ray

Buy tickets to see Matt Lieb and Francesca Fiorentini headline the Punch Line in Sacramento on Sunday, March 17th at 7pm.“If you thought dookie was gonna make it…” -Ashley RayAnother week, another returning guest, and another big lie from Scott Templeton. This week on the pod, comedian, and host of the TV, I Say podcast, Ashley Ray talks to Matt & Vince about The Wire season five episode five, “React Quotes.”If you like to see the smirk of a drunk Irish rascal with a naughty little secret, this is the episode for you. Jimmy learns he’s getting help fabricating a serial killer from slimy little newsboy Scott and can barely contain his glee. By the look on his face, you’d think McNutty just found out monogamy is illegal. Vince shares a fascinating backstory about Omar’s Superman-like flight from a sixth floor balcony – it might seem crazy that he would survive such a fall, but reportedly the character Omar was based on jumped from an even higher height and survived. So the next time you have to clean out the gutters, don’t be a weenie. If you fall you’ll probably be fine. You might have to hobble around with a shotgun as a cane, but you’ll live.Tell us what you think The Joker would find funny in a five-star review on Apple Podcasts. Email us at [email protected]; leave us a voicemail at 415-275-0030Support the Pod: become a patron at patreon.com/Frotcast and get more bonus content than you could ever want.
