  • Great Podcast for Movie Lovers

    I love Joe and Shawn’s takes on some of the lesser known and beloved movies I grew up with. A great mixture of humor and insightful commentary. I’m on my second listen through on the whole catalog. I recommend going back to the beginning and listening through as you will have better context for the ever expanding MDU.

  • Hop in the Dumpster

    I love talking about movies, especially about questionable quality movies, with my friends. Listening to Joe and Sean feels just like that with deep cuts into film trivia, a deep love of all things cult, and of course the jokes. Toss it on and you will not be disappointed.
