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.

Ep. 203 – Snakes On A Train
Normally, I’d say that travel by train can be calm, relaxing and a great way to take in the scenery of the land. Just make sure that when you buy your ticket, you upgrade so you don’t find yourself riding alongside a bunch of venomous, murderous and hungry snakes. You’ll thank me later…for that and for the next hour as we attempt to prove if Snakes On A Train is not that bad.

There Can Only Be One – Moist
In the 90’s, Canada was producing some of the best alt-rock bands to hit the airwaves. One of those bands, hailing from British Columbia, was Moist.

This week, we deep dive their 5 studio albums in search of the one song to stand above them all.
