  • Episode #181: Cats (2019)
    Mar 30 2026

    Every once in a while we get a movie that virtually everyone enjoys trashing. And of course there are always a few sincere defenders, like my old friend, filmmaker, and frequent Overhated guest Laurel Vail! (aka @laurelvail) Big thanks to LV for forcing me to finally sit down with this insane film, plus we got a really fun conversation out of the whole deal.

  • Episode #180: The Out-of-Towners (1999)
    Mar 16 2026

    It seemed like a perfect pitch: Steve Martin covering similar ground to his hit Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, and pair him up with the hilarious Goldie Hawn, with whom Martin struck some gold in Housesitter a few years earlier. So what happened? We talk to regular guest Andrew Carden (@awardsconnect) for some answers.

    Mar 2 2026

    "The Superman movie that time forgot" is today's topic of discussion. Big thanks to screenwriter / Superman junkie Adam Mallinger (@BittrScrptReadr) for recommending this one. We ramble for over an hour!

  • Episode #178: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1978)
    Feb 16 2026

    How did I find someone to defend one of the most detested musicals of all time? Listen in to find out! My thanks to author / film writer / Beatle fanatic Sarah Jae Leiber for choosing such an insane movie to talk about. (I challenge you to watch this movie before listening to the episode.)

  • Episode #177: Chappie (2015)
    Feb 2 2026

    Sometimes this podcast is like therapy for me. Big thanks to old-school wise-ass film nerd Vince Mancini (of The Frotcast) for choosing one of my least favorite films of the last 15 years. And I mean that!

  • Episode #176: Pandorum (2009)
    Jan 19 2026

    It's not easy being a sci-fi horror film. Even when you pull off something cool, people will always call you an Alien retread. But Pandorum writer/director Christian Alvart is here to set the record straight on all sorts of things, from how the movie got made to how it got dumped into theaters in rather unceremonious fashion. My thanks to Christian for this great episode, and my thanks to all patrons and listeners! And Effin Birds!

  • Episode #175: Popeye (1980)
    Jan 5 2026

    One of the movie overhated movies of all time... at first. But history has been kind to this weird little movie. Join me and Dan McCoy (of The Flop House podcast!) as we discuss how much we adore this oddly lovable musical adaptation of an immortal comic strip hero.

  • Episode #174: The Wizard (1989)
    Dec 22 2025

    Yes, it's basically a feature-length Nintendo commercial. That's never been a secret. But perhaps there's some actual artistry and humanity to be found in there too? Well, filmmaker Joe Russo sure seems to think so. (Not the Marvel director Joe Russo; the horror geek Joe Russo!)
