The Siskel & Negro show comes to you LIVE from Zane’s pub during this year’s Aspen Rooftop Comedy Festival. Over the three days of the festival, Siskel & Negro recorded three of the most epic podcasts ever recorded, including a slew of top shelf guests.
It’s Siskel and Negro’s last episode before they hit the 2009 Aspen Rooftop Comedy Festival. That’s right folks, keep an eye out for two episodes next week that will be recorded live and on location at this year’s festival! The Aspen episodes will include special guests, Aspen updates, and lots of other fun stuff!
In this episode, it’s time for their official Summer Movie Wrap-up, including X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Star Trek, and Terminator Salvation. Also up for discussion: co-podcaster Katherine P. McMurphy is wearing an ugly shirt and Kamau finally gets some recognition… sort of.

RooftopComedy was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of Frankenhood; a brand new flick starring Charlie Murphy, DeRay Davis and Jasper Redd (also featuring a personal fav, JB Smoove). Check out our exclusive clip as well as an up close and personal interview with stars Jasper Redd, DeRay Davis, and director Blaxwell Smart later today!
Here is the official movie description:
Motown (DeRay Davis, Semi Pro) and Darius (Jasper Redd, Totally Baked: A Pot-U-Mentary) work in a morgue, trading put-downs and toiling among the most undemanding of customers. Outside of their decidedly dreary jobs, the two dream of bigger and better things. If only they could win the $25,000 prize that will go to the winners of the upcoming 3-on-3 Streetball Tournament. One night, having been demoted to the graveyard shift, they catch their semi-sane colleague Franklin (Charlie Murphy, TV’s “Chappelle’s Show”) in a dark alley using the auto battery of Motown’s precious Gremlin to bring to life a monstrous dead man (Bob Sapp, The Longest Yard) whose heart Franklin has just replaced. Now if they can just get their new mutant friend to play basketball, the basketball tournament is theirs!
In this episode, Siskel and Negro review Yahoo’s! most anticipated movies of 2009. Feature topic: What is Kate reading? Also in this episode: Kevin gets a haircut, Kate has a stroke, and Kevin pronounces words that we all know.

Kamau is half of Rooftop’s Siskel & Negro. The SF Weekly named Kamau 2008 Comedian of The Year and called him, “smart, stylish, and very much in the mold of politically outspoken comedians like Dave Chappelle and Margaret Cho”, although he was more excited that they called him “handsome.”
