  • Great show

    Weirdhouse has introduced me to so many movies I have never heard of & made me reconsider movies I may have dismissed. Some are now among my favorite films. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys the weird side of films.

    The good..

    Pretty informative. Good chemistry. Interesting selection of movies

    The bad..

    Normal anti west commentary. Occasionally insults half the country.

    Lots of commercials. MANY episodes are just repeats

    Over educated and under informed

    Awesome combo.

  • Typical

    I enjoy this podcast. Good chemistry between hosts, fairly informative.

    Sadly they occasionally need to lean into the normal narrative of ‘American culture, bad.

    Also decided to let overtly racist podcasts to be advertised on their feed. Guess you go along to get along, regardless of the divisive lies they promote.
