From the podcast

Warren Arnold has got it bad for bad movies. Ever since his childhood in rural Arkansas forced him to choose between televangelists or the one movie airing on cable, he's taken the low road (high road? who can say) of watching hilariously bad films. This led him to a very specific appreciation for poking fun at these horrible projects via MST3K. We talk about the ideas of joking without tearing down, rebooting beloved properties, and getting at the crux of where a hilariously bad movie went off the rails. Pod People, Manos: The Hands of Fate, The Room, Troll 2, and Werewolf all get some love (hate?) as well as a bad film Warren spent a day on set for witnessing firsthand where projects can go wrong (bonus points for anyone who can track it down).
