The Flop House
MaximumFun, Dan McCoy, Stuart Wellington, Elliott Kalan
The Flop House is a comedy podcast devoted to the worst in recent film. Your hosts (Elliott Kalan, Dan McCoy, and Stuart Wellington) watch a questionable film, then engage in an unscripted discussion about the movie's shortcomings and occasional delights, while never being afraid of a pointless, silly digression or two hundred.

Ep. #345 - Chaos Walking
It's just back to the OP's this episode, for the discussion of the talent-packed, but passion-lite YA adaptation Chaos Walking, which honestly seems like a pretty heart-healthy way for Chaos to travel, but maybe it should check out public transit.Wikipedia entry for Chaos WalkingMovies recommended in this episode:PolyesterSeanceThe Joke

FH Mini 31 - Stu Sees Saws
Stu's always asking if we'd like to play a game, so it was probably only a matter of time before he'd turn to the topic of Saw. He recently ran the series, and wants to talk to Dan and Elliott about it. And what would any Saw-related media be without a twist? In this case, a radical shift in the episode after the ads. We hope you enjoy!

Ep. #343 - North, with Matt Singer
Editor of ScreenCrush, Matt Singer stops by The Flop House, and weirdly, he didn't want to talk about Gymkata. Instead, he forced us to experience North, the movie that Roger Ebert hated SO much that he named his book of bad movies after his review.Wikipedia entry for NorthMovies recommended in this episode:Out of the PastJakob's WifeThe CreamatorMultiple Maniacs

Ep. #341 - Godzilla vs. Kong, with Zander Cannon
From the dawn of time, humankind has dreamed of watching a giant lizard wrestle a big ape. Well, now humankind has Godzilla vs. Kong. Did it live up to our dreams? We enlisted the creator of Kaijumax, Zander Cannon, to help untangle our thoughts, as we spin along on this hollow Earth.BTW: we know we promised you the Dark Phoenix live episode on our Twitter and IG, but technical issues stood in the way (those technical issues are that Dan somehow lost the file). In the unlikely event anyone has a recording or a bootleg, get in touch!Wikipedia entry for Godzilla vs. Kong.Movies recommended in this episode:The Wolf HouseButcher, Baker, Nightmare MakerShin GodzillaKing Kong EscapesA Colt is My Passport
