The Flop House Episode Thirteen is ONLINE!

In our least-edited show yet, we discover that big stars, glossy production values, and a classic story can't save you from being snatch'd by the Flop House, as we discuss The Invasion. Meanwhile, Elliott tries to sell us on his medical humor, Stuart imagines the sassy sentient skateboard of his dreams, and Dan auditions for several other podcasts.

CORRECTION: Dan says in the podcast that he may be wrong about the original director of The Invasion being the person who directed Kontroll. Indeed he is. The original director was Oliver Hirschbiegel who did Das Experiment and the Academy Award-nominated Downfall. Dan apologizes for his Amero-centrism/ mixing up his German and Hungarian directors.

Hey, if you haven't gotten the message by now, new microphones! If the sound quality of the earlier shows have been holding you back, now's your time to jump in again. And tell your friends!
