Seed of Chucky
2026-10-30
For our first foray into the Child's Play franchise, Paul, June, & Jason tackle 2004's Seed of Chucky—a slasher comedy that also attempts to be a meta Hollywood satire, a family melodrama, and a queer coming-of-age story. The crew recap Chucky lore (NOT Chuck Lorre) before discussing the Ventriloquism Coachella, Chucky's masturbation scene, Jennifer Tilly & John Waters' standout performances, the logic of doll reproduction, whether Glen/Glenda's nightmare actually happened, Redman's murder, and so much more. Plus, Paul teaches everyone it was totally normal for boys to have a Cabbage Patch Kid.

Where can you listen?
The award-winning comedy podcast that celebrates bad movies. Comedians and actors Paul Scheer (The League), June Diane Raphael (Grace and Frankie), and Jason Mantzoukas (Big Mouth) break down the very best of the worst films ever made—we’re talkin’ blockbuster flops, cheesy 80s action movies, Lifetime thrillers, obscure cult classics, and if we’re honest… most Nic Cage and Jason Statham movies. Plus, sometimes they’re even joined by hilarious guests like Seth Rogen, Conan O’Brien, Amy Schumer, Nicole Byer, Nick Kroll, and Charlize Theron. And the best part? They watch these bad movies so you don’t have to!
New episodes every Friday. Classic episodes re-released every Tuesday.
