Holy Schnikes! This month, we’re living under powerlines and eating paint chips as Troy and Brad kick off Listener Request Month! Loyal listeners picked the lineup, and first up is Alex H.’s choice: the 1995 comedy classic Tommy Boy.

Now, you might be saying, “No way that was a bomb.” Well… you’d be wrong. While the film was only a modest financial hit, critics at the time disliked it. The guys dive into the legendary chemistry between Chris Farley and David Spade, relive the most quotable moments, and debate whether Tommy Boy deserves a place among the greatest comedies of all time.

Tommy Boy is directed by Peter Segal and stars Chris Farley, David Spade, Bo Derek and Brian Dennehy.

Welcome back to Not a Bomb! This is the podcast where we claw into cinema’s biggest box office cat-astrophes and decide if they deserve a second life. We’re feline pretty proud to be celebrating five years of batting around cinematic flops (the cat puns are just beginning, folks)!

The Catwoman episode from Not A Bomb sounds like a glorious descent into the litter box of superhero cinema. Directed by Pitof (yes, just Pitof), this 2004 disaster ditched DC’s iconic Selina Kyle for a leather-clad, basketball-playing Halle Berry—who somehow went from Oscar royalty to dodging CGI cats and shampoo-fueled villainy in under two hours. The film couldn’t use Batman, Gotham, or any recognizable lore, and yet it still managed to purr its way into infamy.

But leave it to Not A Bomb to find the silver whisker in the furball. With Jose from Watch Skip Plus bringing his signature energy, Troy suffering existential dread, and Brad unleashing a barrage of feline puns, this episode promises to be a riot. Whether Catwoman is a misunderstood gem or just a cinematic hairball, the debate is worth the listen.

If you’re ready to hear grown men meow through movie trauma, this is the episode to curl up with.

No Catwoman this week! Despite what was teased last episode, Troy and Brad are not diving into Gotham’s feline femme fatale just yet. That showdown is coming next week. For now, they’re heading into the explosive world of covert ops with a film that flew under the radar: The Losers (2010).

Joining them is none other than Jason “Solarbaby” Patric—a certified member of the Not A Bomb Mount Rushmore—who takes center stage as the villain squaring off against a rogue special ops team. With a cast stacked like a comic-con dream lineup (Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Zoe Saldana, Chris Evans, Idris Elba, and more), The Losers had all the makings of a blockbuster... yet somehow fizzled on arrival.

So the question is: was this just another forgettable action flick, or is it a hidden gem worth rescuing from cinematic obscurity? The guys rewind to 2010 to find out.

The Losers is directed Sylvain White and stars Jeffery Dean Morgan, Zoe Saldana, Chris Evans, Idris Elba, Columbus Short, Oscar Jaenada, and Jason Patric.

During the life of a podcast, there are times when you contemplate whether it's worth it….ladies and gentlemen, this is one of those weeks. After numerous requests, Troy and Brad finally decided to bite the bullet and discuss 2008's second-rate Sin City - The Spirit. Starring one of the guys from The Suits and scene-chewer expert, Samuel L. Jackson, The Spirit has some of the worst plotting, dialogue, and acting. It is really a chore, and the guys ask you to proceed with caution. Actually, if you're in the mood for The Spirit, check out the comic, it's pretty amazing. Do yourself a favor, skip the film and listen to Troy and Brad suffer.

The Spirit is directed by Frank Miller and stars Gabriel Macht, Eva Mendes, Sarah Paulson, Dan Lauria, Paz Vega, Scarlett Johansson, and Samuel L. Jackson.

Super is directed by James Gunn and stars Rainn Wilson, Elliott Page, Liv Taylor, Kevin Bacon, Nathan Fillon, Gregg Henry, Michael Rooker, Andre Royo, Sean Gunn, Stephen Blackehart, and Linda Cardellini.

Before the MCU assembled its mighty empire… before Chris Evans’ chiseled jawline became America’s favorite shield… there was Menahem Golan.

From the minds that brought you some of cinema’s most glorious disasters comes what many call the worst superhero movie ever forged in celluloid—Albert Pyun’s 1990 Captain America! The Not A Bomb boys are suiting up and once again teaming with Pyun to deep-dive into the red, white, and… “what were they thinking?”

This Cap didn’t soar into box offices—he barely thawed out long enough to see a theatrical release in the Philippines! And yet, through the decades, this star-spangled oddity has built a cult following worthy of Hydra’s secrecy.

So… have Brad and Troy sworn allegiance to this cinematic super-soldier, or will they hurl the shield straight into the trash heap of history? Grab your headphones, true believers—there’s only one way to find out!

This week the guys grab their mop buckets and turn the dial to weird as they dive into UHF—the only film brave enough to give us Conan the Librarian, Gandhi II, and a guy who teaches poodles to fly (sort of). Is UHF a lost comedy gem or just a Twinkie-wiener sandwich of a movie? Tune in and find out—supplies are limited, so act now!

UHF is directed by Jay Levey and stars Weird Al Yankovic, Kevin McCarthy, Fran Drescher, Michael Richards, David Bowe, and Victoria Jackson.

Did you know the Roku Channel existed? (No, seriously, it’s not just a screensaver for your TV!) Did you know they make original content? Did you know they handed over $8 million of actual, spendable money to fund a satirical biopic? Well, bust out your Hawaiian shirts and accordions, because all of that is true — and the result was Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. It’s a wonderfully unhinged parody of the life of “Weird” Al, brimming with the kind of silly-yet-sincere sweetness only a man who made “Eat It,” “Like a Surgeon,” and “Amish Paradise” could deliver. This movie is criminally underseen (like, “should be serving a life sentence” underseen), and Troy and Brad spend this episode doing what any good friends would do — aggressively bragging at their listeners until they finally go watch it.

Weird: The Al Yankovic Story is directed by Eric Appel and stars Daniel Radcliffe, Evan Rachel Wood, Rainn Wilson, Toby Huss, and Julianne Nicholson
