How Did This Get Made?

Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael, and Jason Mantzoukas have been tearing apart terrible movies since 2010, and somehow the formula hasn't gotten old. How Did This Get Made? takes the worst films ever produced and turns them into comedy gold, with the three hosts bringing genuinely different perspectives. Scheer's the ringleader who keeps things moving, Raphael often voices what the audience is thinking with her exasperated reactions, and Mantzoukas brings unhinged energy that can derail a conversation in the best possible way. The show runs on a biweekly schedule, with full episodes dropping every other Friday and "minisodes" filling the gaps. During minisodes, Scheer reads listener mail, fields corrections from eagle-eyed fans, and announces the next movie so listeners can watch along. With over 1,100 episodes in the catalog, they've covered everything from cheesy '80s action flicks and Lifetime thrillers to big-budget Hollywood disasters. Past guests include Seth Rogen, Conan O'Brien, Amy Schumer, Nicole Byer, and Charlize Theron. Live episodes are a particular highlight. Recorded in front of sold-out audiences, they include fan Q&A sessions and original "second opinion" songs performed by audience members defending the movie. About 30 minutes of bonus material from each live show doesn't make it into the final cut, so attending in person is a different experience entirely. The podcast is still actively producing new content in 2026, recently covering films like Netflix's "My Secret Santa." If you love bad movies or just want to laugh at Hollywood's most baffling creative decisions, this show has earned its reputation as the gold standard of bad-movie podcasts.
