Was It Good Though? Podcast

For Episode 179, we’re diving into TipToes, starring Matthew McConaughey and Gary Oldman. This was a last-minute addition — one neither Jason nor Jazz had seen before — and let’s just say, our expectations were way off. The story might feel familiar, but it offers a perspective neither of our cohosts have experienced. We break down the film’s rollercoaster tone, Gary Oldman’s performance as Rolfe, and Matthew’s turn as a full-on villain. And of course, if you know our crew, you know the jokes flew — though they stayed (mostly) low to the ground. But we kept it respectful! After all that, the real question remains… Was It Good Though? 🎬

We even revisited our favorite debate: Camp vs. Horror Comedy (Chris’s lane, of course), and tackled the question of what truly makes a “horror icon.” Did we really need a sequel to The Black Phone? What would a prequel even look like? And most importantly…Was It Good Though?? 🎙️
