Welcome To The Home Of It’s Not That Bad
It’s the show that does its best to defend the unfairly maligned movies, to find the silver linings in the films deemed “less than great”. Every week, host Jason Whissell is joined by a guest to discuss a movie that has been poorly rated by the critics or by the fans. We do our very best to find good things to say about them, and to show those flicks in a light that you may have not noticed before. We are also always happy to hear what movies you think should be covered, as well as what you thought of the movies themselves. We’ll be posting blogs on here as well as keep you updated as to what to expect in the coming months.

Keep Watch Pass – Movie Soundtracks
They are the songs you hear in the movie, and then on the radio. They help tell the story, set the mood and allow you to relive moments from the film wherever you listen to music. On this episode, we pick our Keep, Watch and Pass soundtracks. Which discs made our picks? Which ones would have made yours? Tune in and find out.

Ep. 113 – Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice
When we were kids, we all took our action figures and bashed them together as if those characters would actually have reason to fight. In a lot of those cases, the dialogue we made up in our heads for those action figures was probably better than what ended up in some superhero films. But don’t worry, no need to bash anything here because we’re about to venture into the world of DC and see if Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice is not that bad. Special guest: Lyle Robichaud.

There Can Only Be One – Bruce Springsteen
With a studio discography that spans 50 years, to say that there is a lot of material to cover in the grand catalog of Bruce Springsteen would be a minor understatement. Jesse Jackson from Set Lusting Bruce joins the show to bring his expertise to this deep dive as we go through 23 albums and pick only one song off each.
Below, you will find the playlists created by both Jesse and I. Be sure to have a listen and let us know in the comments below which songs would have made your Bruce Springsteen playlist.

Ep. 112 – Battle Beyond The Stars
It’s not easy to craft a new world with new characters and a story that’s original, captivating and guaranteed to thrill audiences everywhere. The next best thing is to borrow different parts of better movies, Franken-film them together and hope that the end result is different enough, palatable and guaranteed to thrill some audiences. This is why you pay your writers well. Despite all that, we’re here to try to prove to you that Battle Beyond The Stars is not that bad. Special guest: Sean Faust

Grading On A Curve – Movies Of 2023
2023 has had its ups and downs. Writers and actors went on strike, superheroes crashed and burned and Barbie went full nuclear at the box office. On this show, though, we wrap up the year a little differently. We like to take a bunch of people, subject them to the worst the year had to offer and see if they survive. We’re a little sadistic, but don’t worry…we all lived to talk about it right here on the latest edition of Grading On A Curve. Guests on the panel this episode include Carson Elcome, Lyle Robichaud and Peter from the Movie Duel Podcast!
