Hobo Radio Interview – Jacob Reed, Our Frasier Remake

Next Thursday, Paramount+ will launch a reboot of the acclaimed sitcom Frasier. One day before its release, another reimagining of Frasier will drop; an unsanctioned one made by a ragtag group of animators and filmmakers who love the show.

Our Frasier Remake is the brainchild of Jacob Reed. It’s a collaboration between over 100 artists who each took a short clip from the season one episode “My Coffee With Niles” and reinterpreted it however they saw fit. The result is a mix of animation, puppets and live action clips pieced together into one chaotic episode.

Joel Murphy and Molly Regan participated in the project. And now Joel sits down with Jacob Reed to discuss this massive undertaking in detail.

This week’s music:

  • Intro – “Giddy Up” by Tahuna Breaks
  • Interstitial – “Vishnu Meets Funk” and “Ancient Ritual” by Lucas Perný & Miloslav Kollar
