How Did This Get Made? - Rad

The title of the podcast is "How Did This Get Made?" The idea is to review bad movies and ask the titular question. Now I know that you can't change the title of the podcast for an episode but honestly this episode should be called "How Did The Art Of Film Take Almost 100 Years To Make This?".

Because of course, the movie that this episode is about is Rad, the most radical film ever made.

Hareraiser... The Worst Game Ever?

The list of Worst Video Games of All-Time is never-ending. It all comes down to what you consider to be a game, what you consider to be "worst" - basically it's all down to opinion.

But the case that Hareraiser is the worst game of all-time leads to an interesting tale of an elaborate real-world treasure hunt, a "get rich quick" scheme and ultimately a scam.

The Doomed Cleveland Balloonfest of '86

"The Doomed Cleveland Balloonfest of '86" is, to me, one of the greatest clickbaity titles for a video that I can imagine.

And although it doesn't quite live up to the mystery of the title, as 6 minute documentaries go, it's still pretty interesting.

Late Night - Classic Norm

It's been one of the most famous Late Night with Conan O'Brien clips for years but I've never seen the full interview available anywhere.

I watched this show when it aired and this is probably the first time I've seen it since that time. Classic Norm.

Late Night - Richard Dominick

"This paper has facts. 'Pregnant Man Gives Birth' - that's a fact!"

Back in the old days, grocery store checkout lines would have the papers with the really great headlines. I'm pretty sure all of those papers went out of business though perhaps they've simply moved to the internet.

Regardless, I've never once heard anything from anyone who was involved in producing them. But here's "Sun reporter" Richard Dominick interviewed on Late Night. His ability to keep a straight face is astonishing. I can't believe it.


Later Dominick went on to produce "The Jerry Springer Show", then "The Steve Wilkos Show" and then later "Hardcore Pawn".
