Elliott gives us a preview of his son Sammy’s novel, and then things take a turn.

In our first episode recorded after shit got real, we take a change of pace, and discuss your aunt’s favorite movie, Book Club. Can a cast of wonderful old pros elevate the world’s most banal script? Meanwhile, Elliott presents his Golden Girls hypothesis, Dan’s a huge crybaby, and Stu bravely soldiers on, through his COVID-19.
OH WHAT AN EPISODE. We’re joined by screenwriter and Switchblade Sisters host, April Wolfe, to discuss Wolverine himself, Glenn Danzig’s directorial debut, Verotika — an anthology of “sexy” (?) horror tales. And this time we even managed to give April a working microphone!
Is Holmes & Watson somehow an even worse version of the Sherlock Holmes stories than Sherlock Gnomes? Will Elliott and Stu be able to console Dan about the latest insult to his beloved hero? Join us for this live show, taped last year in Portland, Oregon, to find out!
In this minisode we take on the topic of teams of specialists, like you might find in heist films.
We’ve been wanting to tackle this one for quite a while, folks, and… oof. Be careful what you wish for. Adal Rifai of the podcast “Hello From the Magic Tavern” joins us to discuss The Fanatic, the movie that asks “What if Fred Durst directed a movie starring a career-self-destructing John Travolta as a man with a developmental disability, with his trademark Limp Bizkit sensitivity?” Meanwhile, Stuart invents the newest horror movie killer, Elliott attacks Dan for his nonexistent position on backstory, and Dan misses Leggs.
In this minisode we take on the topic of jobs in movies. If you want to dictate a future minisode, tweet at us @theflophousepod.
It’s the second and final of our two contest winner-selected episodes, this one picked by Scott Yacychyn, who designed our delightful new Flop House “couch monsters” poster, which you can purchase HERE! It’s a romantic comedy called Little Italy (or as they pronounce it, li’lit’ly), set in the world’s most romantic city… Toronto! Meanwhile, Stuart gets mad at Elliott, Dan gets mad at Elliott and Stuart, and Elliott just keeps on singing a happy song.
