Episode 224 - The Substance (Not A Bomb X Watch Skip Plus Crossover)
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we dive into some of cinema's biggest box office failures and explore whether they deserve a second chance!
Listener Request Month takes a little pause as the guys gather in the same room to record a special episode with Jose and Alex from Watch Skip Plus. To celebrate this momentous occasion, there was only one film that could do it justice: The Substance. Equal parts Cronenberg and Showgirls, The Substance stands apart from anything previously covered on the podcast—and with its current box office flop, it’s officially podcast-worthy. The hosts also dive into their favorite finds from Baltimore Comic-Con and share thoughts on the movies they've been watching lately. So, grab a seat, relax, and tune in for conversations about fame, body image, chewing sounds, and the ever-debated pronunciation of Demi Moore's name. Plus, everyone experiences a weirdly flavored drink for the plus!

Episode 223 - One From the Heart
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema's biggest box office failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
Listener Request Month continues as Troy and Brad finally delve into the frequently requested film, "One from the Heart," directed by Francis Ford Coppola. This movie is a musical disguised as a drama, depicting the story of a Las Vegas couple going through a breakup and the tumultuous journey their relationship takes during one eventful night apart. It is a fascinating look into a film that almost bankrupted a movie studio and the lengths Coppola took to see this to its conclusion. Listen as the guys talk about hairy-chested men, the sexy appeal of Raul Julia, and relationship advice.
One from the Heard is directed by Francis Ford Coppola and stars Frederic Forrest, Teri Garr, Raul Julia, Natassja Kinski, Lainie Kazan, and Harry Dean Stanton

Episode 222 - Killer Joe
Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box failures and decide if they deserve a second chance.
Listener Request Month rolls on as Troy and Brad welcome back Sammy of the GGTMC to take on one of the most intense films the podcast has ever covered. This week, we're headed to the trailer park with a big bucket of the Colonel’s famous chicken in hand to dive into the 2011/2012 Southern Neo-Noir, Killer Joe. Brace yourself—this film is not for the faint of heart. It's brutal, violent, and pushes boundaries, fully earning its NC-17 rating. The gang covers everything from the best fried chicken to Matthew McConaughey’s chilling performance, and even debates if this might be the movie that broke the Movie Guide scale. Killer Joe is unforgettable, but definitely not for everyone—proceed with caution.
Killer Joe is directed by William Friedkin and stars Matthew McConaughey, Emile Hirsch, Juno Temple, Gina Gershon, and Thomas Haden Chruch.
