    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 – Harry Potter Movies

    Your acceptance letter to Hogwarts has arrived. It’s time to dive deep into the Wizarding World and make our Keep Watch Pass picks of movies with the boy who lived? Which movie gets 10 points? Which one shall not be named? No golden snitches here…just some KWP magic.

  • Ep. 95 – Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed

    Hanna Barbera is known for creating some of the most iconic characters that graced our TVs on Saturday mornings. The movies made from those characters…well, that’s a different story. But fret not, cartoon lovers, because we’re here to tell you that Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed is not that bad.

  • Keep Watch Pass – Movies Starring Scarlett Johansson

    She is one of the biggest, most bankable stars in Hollywood today and her filmography runs of the gamut of every genre. We take a look at her movies and pick our Keep, Watch and Pass picks. See if our choices line up with your favs and not-so-fav movies of the one and only ScarJo.

  • There Can Only Be One – Me First & The Gimme Gimmes

    Take 5 uber-talented punk musicians and combine them with songs and staples that cross all genres and eras and crank the volume (and sometimes the speed) to eleven. Me First are the standard-bearers of what a punk cover song should sound like. Brian Colburn from My Weekly Mixtape joins the show to go through their studio discography to pick our one song from each album. Did we pick yours? Listen in and find out.

    Below, you will see the playlists made by both Brian and myself. Have a listen below. Also, be sure to let us know in the comments below which songs would have made your list from Me First.

  • Ep. 94 – Game Over, Man.

    It’s fair to say that Netflix has made some decisions in the past that could be considered as questionable. The Sandler deal? Password sharing crackdown? Cancelling Cowboy Bebop? However, it’s our opinion that there is always a diamond in every rough. Is a full on, balls out comedy that diamond? Find out as we attempt to prove to you that Game Over, Man is not that bad.

  • Keep Watch Pass – Movies Starring Christian Slater

    The man who defined cool in the 80’s, who taught us that all we needed was a microphone and some iconic eyebrows…Christian Slater is the subject of our Keep Watch Pass this week. Did we pick your favs? Listen in and find out.

  • Ep. 93 – Black Adam

    Movies like Logan proved that the antihero movie can work. Movies like Punisher proved that it’s not always that easy. The DCEU proved that no matter what you do, haters are gonna hate. However, when a film comes in threatening to upset the balance of power….it’s a tall order so it’s time to revisit Black Adam and see that in the end, it’s not that bad.

  • Keep Watch Pass – Movies Directed By Quentin Tarantino

    He’s one of the most prolific directors of his time. His movies are a genre unto themselves. He is often imitated, never duplicated. On this episode, we go through the filmography of Quentin Tarantino and pick our Keep, Watch and Pass movies. Did we pick yours? Listen in and find out.

  • There Can Only Be One – Led Zeppelin

    There is no question that Led Zeppelin ranks high in the all-time greatest rock and roll bands debate. What is in question is which songs stand out amongst the others on their albums? That’s the question Noah Siegel-London and I will tackle as we go through 9 albums of rock goodness. Which songs did we pick? Did we pick your favs? Listen in and find out.

    Below, you will see the songs from both of our lists. Be sure to listen and enjoy. When you’re done, pop on down to the comments and let us know which songs you would have added to your list.

  • Ep. 92 – The Relic

    In any major city, a museum is a wonderful place, a pantheon of learning and discovery. In any major motion picture, a museum is a cesspool of violence and horrors come to life, a mecca of death and dismemberment. Maybe think twice when that field trip permission slip comes home. Luckily, you don’t have to think twice about The Relic, because it’s not that bad.
