"All that's missing is a mariachi band!"
Episode 4 and we tackle more than a few prickly issues today as we deep dive into Joe Mantegna's career (courtesy of a few David Mamet sidebars). Yes, most of us know him for his cartoonish embodiment of Fat Tony on The Simpsons. But how does he hold up as an actor in his own right? And what can we make of his politics?
Timestamps:
01:30 Intro
03:03 Frasier Talk: Frasier has to decide if he's man or chicken, when he's challenged to a fight by newspaper columnist Derek Mann(tegna)!
08:36: Joe Mantegna Talk: Gangster on screen, gangster in animated form, gangster in the sheets? We'll find out as we trace his path from Joey Zasa to Fat Tony and beyond.
16:45 Homicide Talk: Mamet wrote and directed this complex exploration of Jewishness, Zionism, Anti-Semitism and everything in-between, through the eyes of Joe Mantegna's beaten down detective. What could possibly go wrong?
