The Good, The Pod and The Ugly
Long-running film podcast featuring hosts Ken, Ryan and Thomas and numerous guests talking filmographies, oddities, classics and side hustles. Through a thousand seasons they have talked about nearly every movie ever made (verified by PodStats Inc).
SEASON 15: SQUIB SEASON! Trace the history of the squib in film through 20 carefully chosen titles. It's kind of gross! Film the last 60 years would be far different without them so it is very important.
