Have you ever seen a movie so bad that it’s amazing?

Get ready to dive into the depths of cinematic absurdity with the podcast that celebrates the best of the worst: How Did This Get Made. Join the dynamic trio of Paul Scheer, Jason Mantzoukas, and June Diane Raphael as they expertly dissect and hilariously roast some of the most mind-boggling movies ever made. 

With a combined resume that includes hit shows like The League, Black Monday, Brooklyn 99, Grace & Frankie, and Long Shot, these hosts bring their comedic genius to every episode of How Did This Get Made. This multi-award-winning show took home the prestigious 2022 Ambie Winner for Best Comedy Podcast and was crowned iHeart Radio’s Best TV & Film Podcast. 

But How Did This Get Made doesn’t stop at audio entertainment. Brace yourself for an unparalleled live experience that has captivated sold-out audiences across the country. During the live episodes, you become part of the action, engaging with the hosts through questions, spontaneously creating uproarious songs for segments, and witnessing unforgettable clips that can only be described as one-of-a-kind. 

From the hilariously absurd Drop Dead Fred to the adrenaline-fueled chaos of the entire Fast and Furious franchise, How Did This Get Made fearlessly deconstructs and mercilessly mocks the most epically bad films ever created. It’s a rollercoaster ride of laughter, astonishment, and shared disbelief that you won’t find anywhere else.

Scandalized at Treefort Music Fest

Charlie Hunt and Jaci Kettler are political scientists at Boise State, and shameless gossips about political scandals. The corruption, the infidelity, and the laying…it’s basically the nerd version of celebrity gossip. In Scandalized: A Podcast of Political Impropriety, Charlie and Jaci tell the stories of scandals throughout American history and chase them with a healthy dose of political science.

Is This Normal? with Erin Ingle & Alyssa Yeoman is a weekly podcast where the two comedians dissect anonymous real people’s quirks and queries. They decide if the submission is normal, special or something completely different!

Behind Gray Walls is a true crime podcast featuring stories from the men and women who lived and worked at the Old Idaho State Penitentiary. Each week, Anthony, Samuel, and Skye explore prisoners whose crimes led them to serve time at the Old Pen. Their history is explored in depth and compared to corrections topics faced in communities today.

Hosted by lifelong friends Whitney Rivera and Camden Schacher, Ghosts and Garnets is a true crime podcast that blends well researched storytelling with humor and a touch of absurdity. This laugh-out-loud show promises listeners a unique and entertaining perspective on true crime. Their goal is to keep listeners engaged, educated, and, most importantly, laughing, while also raising awareness about these real-life cases. Whitney and Camden take you on a deep dive into a mix of well-known and lesser known cases in Idaho and beyond. With its engaging storytelling, thought provoking insights, and just the right amount of levity, each episode of the podcast provides a fresh perspective on the cases that have long-haunted communities and captivated the public’s imagination.
