Bride Hard Jan 17, 2026

Show notes

You know the old adage -- dying is easy, briding is hard. Something like that. And if you're looking for a comedy that feels like dying, Bride Hard certainly fits the bill. There are plenty of talented, funny folks who were involved in this film, so we try hard to find some joy. Did we succeed? Take a listen.

Afraid, with Chris Weitz Nov 29, 2025

Show notes

Our friend Chris Weitz knocked politely and requested to be allowed into the lion's den, becoming the first director to come on a full episode to discuss his OWN work. That's right, on this Flop House we discuss AfrAId, a movie written and directed by (checks notes) Chris Weitz. And surprisingly (?) it's one of our most joyful episodes. God bless you, brave sir.
