Which comedy podcast features comedians discussing terrible movies?
Answer
How Did This Get Made?
The comedy podcast that features comedians discussing terrible movies is How Did This Get Made? Hosted by Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael, and Jason Mantzoukas, the show turns notoriously confusing, poorly reviewed, or outlandish films into material for detailed comic dissection.
Each episode examines a film's plot, characters, production choices, continuity errors, and accidental absurdities. The hosts and guests joke about the movie before Scheer traditionally reads “second opinions”: humorous user reviews, often from Amazon, that add another layer of commentary. Episodes are frequently recorded in front of live audiences, making the show feel part film discussion and part comedy performance.
The podcast began in 2010 after Scheer and Raphael watched Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps and later discussed the idea with Mantzoukas. A common mix-up is confusing it with Unspooled, another film podcast associated with Scheer; Unspooled focuses on acclaimed movies from the American Film Institute's list, while How Did This Get Made? specializes in films widely regarded as bad or bewildering.
