71. Mario Cantone

Tony-nominated actor, singer and comedian Mario Cantone drops by Manhattan's Nutmeg Studios to regale Gilbert and Frank with inside-showbiz stories about everyone from Paul Lynde to Robert Redford to Lauren Bacall. Also, Mario crushes on Jan-Michael Vincent, tours London with Marty Krofft, treads the boards with Patrick Stewart and searches for Sammy Davis' eye. PLUS: Monty Clift visits Merv! Bette Davis trashes Faye Dunaway! Richard Simmons kidnaps Famous Amos! And Gilbert (and Mario) sing the theme from "The Sterile Cuckoo"! Our sponsor today is one of the premiere independent labels in the world, DFA Records, based out of downtown New York City and co-founded by James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem. DFA Records is proud and excited to release the second album from Greek singer songwriter production guru and all around genius savant, Larry Gus. His new album is entitled “I Need New Eyes."
