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.

It's established lore that, growing up, Dan mostly got to see movies in the theater on his birthday, as a special treat. But what were those movies? And if you had limited birthday bucks (TM) to spend, were those movies BIRTHDAY-WORTHY?

I’ve been listening for about ten years now so either this a good podcast or something is wrong with me.
I've been listening to this podcast for over 10 years, and I'm not that old. These boys are really really funny, listen to them talk while summarizing a bad movie (sometimes). The minis are fun too.

I adore this podcast and find the hosts endlessly charming.
Please, please gentlemen, never ever try an Australian accent in public again.

A comedic panel show that keeps a sharp, affectionate eye on questionable cinema, pairing three regular hosts with frequent guests to unpack what works and what wildly misses in bad films. Episodes mix spirited movie critique with banter, self-referential bits, and sponsor reads, all delivered in a breezy, improvisational style. Notable strengths include long-running chemistry among the hosts, candid meta-commentary about indie podcasting, and a knack for turning even flawed films into entertaining conversations with surprising insight for potential sponsors and listeners who love film, humor, and ensemble dynamics.
