Welcome back to your favorite podcast that goes back and reexamines some cinema’s biggest bombs. On this week’s show, we finally tackle one of the most requested films from our listeners! Ok, to be fair, all those requests came from the same person and that person happens to be guesting on this episode! Our good friend, Nathan, has wanted to talk about one of the biggest bombs of 2002 - Death to Smoochy. Danny DeVito’s dark comedy bombed so bad at the box office that the company who financed the movie went out of business!

Listen as the guys talk about painting miniatures, Roger Ebert, chainmail skirts, 9/11, the worst haircut of all time and a very special Movie Guide Review of the Not A Bomb Podcast.
