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.

    Very funny but I can’t finish any of the episodes because I don’t really care about the sponsors or the other stuff after they talk about the movie. But all in all good
