  • Finally, a podcast about two men living in a comedy club and watching Joker 2 nonstop!

    Hilarious, heartwarming and surprisingly educational about the scientific method

  • I am changed

    I love this podcast and I listen every week. I’ve never seen Joker 2 but I loved Joker 1, I even gave it 5 stars on Letterboxed. However, I attempted to watch it again last week and I couldn’t get through the first minutes. I don’t think it’s possible to listen to this podcast and still enjoy Joker 1. There’s no good in it!!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

10: Grease Lightning Monocle w/ Abby Howells
Q: What did you think of the movie, Abby? Joker 2?
I have never seen such a sombre dirge of a flick that's based on a dude who wears a fedora.
REPLAY: S02E40 - Paul Scheer
Q: Do you believe the male characters in 'Sex and The City' are appealing?
The male characters are generally portrayed as unlikable or superficial, leaving the audience to question their desirability.
REPLAY: S02E39 - Southern
Q: What would change if we reduced Miranda's speaking time by 20 minutes but cut out Coffee Guy?
It would be a tougher decision, as Coffee Guy represents hope and the American dream for us.
REPLAY: S02E39 - Southern
Q: How would you feel if a director's cut of the movie was released?
I would love to see some more footage and would be excited for any new film in this film at this point.
REPLAY: S02E20 - Corry
Q: What was your shining light of the watch of the movie? What was your favourite bit of this film?
Dominic reflected that the karaoke scene was emblematic of the film's self-congratulatory tone, highlighting what he saw as a failure in the film's narrative structure.

Frequently Asked Questions About The Worst Idea Of All Time

What is The Worst Idea Of All Time about and what kind of topics does it cover?

Two Kiwi comedians repeatedly subject themselves to a movie, turning a single-film marathon into a long-running, humorous analytic project. Across episodes they roast pacing, plot holes, and performances while weaving in personal anecdotes, fan letters, and sometimes guests to dissect why certain films feel tortured, entertaining, or surprisingly insightful. The show blends ruthless critique with self-deprecating banter, musical riffs, and running meta-jokes, offering a unique mix of endurance-testing review, comedy, and cultural commentary that often leans into the absurd. It's likely to appeal to listeners who enjoy high-energy banter, self-aware critique of films, and long-form commitment to a gimmick, with a distinctly New Zealand comed... more
