Great Bad Movies

Greg Swinehart and Joe Sky-Tucker sound like two old friends who never stopped arguing about movies, and that is exactly what makes Great Bad Movies work. The premise is right there in the name: these are films that are objectively terrible but somehow ridiculously entertaining. The hosts treat each pick as a love letter to movies that are flawed in the most enjoyable ways possible. With about 50 episodes and a biweekly release schedule, the show has built a solid catalog of films that sit in that sweet spot between genuinely awful and completely irresistible. Greg and Joe bring different perspectives to each movie, which means you get real debate rather than two people agreeing about everything. One might champion a film's absurd practical effects while the other tears apart its dialogue. They also bring on guest hosts for special episodes, which adds variety without disrupting the core dynamic. What sets this apart from the crowded bad-movie podcast space is the tone. The hosts do not talk down to the films or the people who made them. There is an understanding that making any movie is hard, and making a memorably bad one takes its own kind of talent. Episodes run at a comfortable length and the production quality is clean. If you are looking for a show that respects the craft of cinematic failure while still having a blast with it, this one delivers consistently.
