Stuart welcomes Dan and Elliott to “The Pitch Pit,” his Flop House after-show, which is definitely a long-running podcast and not just something he made up for this mini.

Even though the last few years may have made everyone feel unstuck in time, there are still some things you can depend on — namely that, come the fall, Dan and Elliott will argue about whether it’s Smalltember or Smallvember. Anywhooo, we kick off the smallest time of year with Amityville in Space, the movie that dares ask the question “What if Amityville… but in space?”

Stuart tries to explain JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure to Dan and Elliott. Are they more confused afterward than they were at the beginning? Perhaps!

Episode 275 is ALIVE! We keep raiding Blank Check for some of our finest guest stars, which is why it was only a matter of time before we’d add “America’s finest film critic,” Ben Hosley, to that list.

Will Dan be able to convince Stu and Elliott that they’re sad they missed it?
