How Did This Get Made?
The award-winning comedy podcast that celebrates bad movies. Comedians and actors Paul Scheer (The League), June Diane Raphael (Grace and Frankie), and Jason Mantzoukas (Big Mouth) break down the very best of the worst films ever made—we’re talkin’ blockbuster flops, cheesy 80s action movies, Lifetime thrillers, obscure cult classics, and if we’re honest… most Nic Cage and Jason Statham movies. Plus, sometimes they’re even joined by hilarious guests like Seth Rogen, Conan O’Brien, Amy Schumer, Nicole Byer, Nick Kroll, and Charlize Theron. And the best part? They watch these bad movies so you don’t have to!

My Secret Santa
explicitJason demanded we gift you all one last holiday movie treat in the form of the new 2025 Netflix rom-com My Secret Santa—a movie that asks, "What if instead of a dad disguising himself as Mrs. Doubtfire to see his kids, a mom disguises herself as Santa to get half-price snowboard lessons?" Paul, June, and Jason discuss if Matthew wants to bone Hugh Mann, the movie's obsession with hot cocoa, the locker room nudity scene, how two guys who merely like Halloween can create Mission Impossible style facemasks, if the movie is misogynistic, and so much more. Get ready, 'cause it's time for women to play Santa and upend the Santa Industrial Complex!
