  • Little Brother (2026) - Movie Torture
    2026/08/03

    Well... it finally happened.

    After 137 episodes, Jacob disappeared.

    No, he didn't die.

    No, he didn't get abducted by aliens.

    And despite what Brad claimed, he didn't punch Brad in the face over Joker 2... although listeners aren't ruling it out.

    Enter Mark.

    Brad claims he searched the globe for a new co-host. We assume that means he Googled "guy willing to watch terrible movies for free" and somehow Mark answered.

    Within the first ten minutes, Mark had already:

    • Been insulted by Jacob in the live chat.
    • Learned Brad's nickname is "Baby Hands."
    • Been introduced to MTD, who apparently trained Jason Voorhees... according to absolutely no verified historical records.

    Then they actually tried talking about Little Brother...

    ...for about six minutes.

    After that the episode somehow became:

    • A Tom Hanks career retrospective.
    • A Star Wars debate.
    • A discussion about hologram concerts.
    • Brad's traumatic Cast Away date where his date narrated the entire movie to the theater.
    • Mark Wahlberg somehow getting cast in a movie he wasn't even in.
    • And a serious investigation into whether John Cena accepted the role without reading the script.

    Meanwhile, the actual movie sat quietly in the corner wondering if anyone remembered it existed.

    The best part?

    Mark fit in immediately. By the end of the episode he was already roasting the movie, questioning Netflix's budget, and politely wondering how they had spent nearly 35 minutes talking about literally everything except Little Brother. That's when you know he's officially part of Movie Torture.

  • Obsession (2026) - Movie Torture
    2026/08/17

    MTD was at the beach.

    Jacob turned 91.

    And somehow that combination led to a discussion about Chris Hansen, suspicious party guests carrying cookies, and why Facebook Marketplace might be the most dangerous place on the internet.

    Before they even mentioned the movie, Brad unloaded weeks of Marketplace trauma.

    One guy negotiated the price...

    ...only to announce he was already on his way to buy someone else's bike.

    Another promised to show up Saturday morning, completely disappeared, read Brad's messages hours later, and never replied.

    Then there was the 3 a.m. message from a woman who wanted an e-bike delivered halfway across the state because her boyfriend would meet him there.

    At that point, Brad was convinced every Marketplace sale ends with either getting ghosted or getting kidnapped.

    Mark didn't exactly disagree.

    The two spent several minutes wondering why basic human communication seems to disappear the moment someone opens Facebook Marketplace. They even pitched an entire bonus episode devoted to reading ridiculous Marketplace messages because, frankly, they write themselves.

    Eventually they remembered they were supposed to review Obsession.

    The movie follows Bear, a painfully awkward guy who's too afraid to ask Nikki out, so instead he buys a magical "One Wish Willow" from the creepiest crystal shop imaginable.

    Rather than wishing for confidence...

    ...or money...

    ...or unlimited wishes...

    ...he wishes Nikki will love him more than anything else in the world.

    As expected, that turns out to be one of the worst decisions in horror movie history.

    Brad couldn't understand why Bear was so terrified to ask her out in the first place. Nikki practically hands him the opportunity on a silver platter, asking if he likes her while they're sitting alone in the car.

    Instead...

    ...he freezes.

    Then immediately cracks open the magical wish stick.

    Problem solved.

    Sort of.

    The guys loved the creepy crystal shop, especially the employee who looked less like a cashier and more like someone who escaped from another dimension.

    Brad's theory?

    The store isn't actually a store at all.

    It's basically hell with retail hours.

    Neither of them could figure out how a company selling cursed wishing sticks hasn't been sued into oblivion.

    Somehow the business just keeps operating.

    From there, the conversation wandered completely off the rails.

    William Baldwin was declared the greatest Baldwin because he got Sharon Stone and Cindy Crawford in consecutive movies.

    Russell Crowe was accused of eating Russell Crowe.

    They reminisced about AOL discs, Prodigy internet, Pizza Hut's Back to the Future Part II glasses, and enough forgotten '90s thrillers to fill several future episodes.

    At one point they honestly seemed to forget Obsession existed.

    Then someone remembered.

    Barely.

    When they finally returned to the movie, both hosts agreed it delivered exactly what horror fans have been missing: an original premise, genuine creepiness, and a villain who creates his own nightmare because he refuses to have one uncomfortable conversation.

    Not bad for a movie that cost less than most Hollywood catering budgets.

  • Backrooms (2026) - Movie Torture
    2026/08/24

    MTD returned from the beach, Mark came back for another week of bad movies, and within five minutes the movie review had somehow become a pitch meeting for reality television. Brad introduced Life Stinks, where rich people have to survive homeless for 30 days, before Mark improved it with Life Swap, where a guy from rural Nebraska gets dropped into New York City while a city slicker gets sent to a farm and spends the next month being called "City Boy." Honestly, the guys may have accidentally come up with a better idea than the movie they were reviewing.

    Eventually they remembered they were supposed to talk about Backrooms. Brad's one-minute synopsis somehow made more sense than the actual movie. A struggling furniture salesman discovers mysterious endless hallways beneath his failing store, tells his psychiatrist about them, brings his coworkers inside, everyone starts disappearing, and somehow the psychiatrist decides that's enough evidence to go exploring herself. Sure... why not?

    The biggest surprise of the episode wasn't the movie—it was Mark. He admitted he genuinely loved the first hour of Backrooms, while Brad looked at him like he'd just nominated Madame Web for Best Picture. The debate lasted most of the episode, with Mark defending the atmosphere and Brad insisting the movie forgot one tiny detail... explaining literally anything.

    The one thing everyone agreed on was that the real star wasn't the furniture salesman or the psychiatrist—it was the backrooms themselves. Endless yellow hallways, buzzing fluorescent lights, abandoned office furniture, and that unsettling feeling of being somewhere you definitely shouldn't be. Brad even admitted the creepiest place he'd ever worked wasn't a haunted house—it was helping his girlfriend at Bath & Body Works after the mall closed. Apparently empty shopping malls at night are nightmare fuel all by themselves.

    As they broke down the movie, the questions just kept piling up. Why is Clark sleeping on mattresses he's supposed to sell? Who wants to buy a bed that's doubled as a grown man's apartment? How is this furniture store still in business when no customers ever appear? And who's paying the electric bill for an underground maze with enough fluorescent lights to power a small city?

    Naturally, none of those questions stayed on topic for long. Somehow the conversation turned into Brad explaining that if he ever lost an arm, he wouldn't want a modern prosthetic—he'd want a full Captain Hook hook. Not because it would be practical, but because people would remember him as "the hook-hand guy." By the end of the conversation they were designing interchangeable hook attachments like they were building the Swiss Army Knife of pirate hands.

    Then the movie paused so the guys could discuss psychiatry. Brad decided he'd make an awful therapist because he'd spend sessions doodling his autograph instead of listening. He also admitted he'd constantly want to tell Mark about the bizarre patients he'd seen that day, which is probably why becoming a psychiatrist was never in the cards.

    Ironically, the movie finally became its strongest once everyone entered the backrooms together. The found-footage scenes were genuinely creepy, the atmosphere worked, and both Brad and Mark were convinced the movie was about to take off. Instead, it introduced more mysteries than answers. Who was the figure lurking in the halls? What exactly are the backrooms? Why do they exist? The answer, apparently, is that you're supposed to watch the YouTube series first.

    By the end of the episode, the biggest mystery wasn't Backrooms. It was how a movie can make hundreds of millions of dollars while still leaving Brad convinced that the scariest thing in the entire film was buying a mattress that Clark had been sleeping—and farting—on for months.

  • Ice Cream Man (1995) - Movie Torture
    2026/09/07

    Brad and Mark scoop into 1995’s Ice Cream Man, a movie featuring Clint Howard, bugs in the ice cream, a kidnapped kid named Small Paul, a wildly random Steve Garvey appearance, and enough questionable filmmaking decisions to make you wonder if anyone actually read the script. Along the way, Jacob gets promoted to MTD Lite, the guys investigate the secret economy of ice cream trucks, pitch Rob Gronkowski in a Hunter reboot, question whether Ron Howard ever actually watched his brother’s movie, and unveil a brand-new “Level of Torture” rating system. Spoiler: Ice Cream Man scores VERY high. Brad even declares it one of the five worst movies he’s ever watched for Movie Torture—which, after nearly 200 bad movies, is basically a cinematic war crime.

    We watched it so you don’t have to. Seriously. Don’t.

  • Champions, Chaos & Car Jitsu - The Floor Recap with Angie, Ashley and Brad
    2026/09/08

    Season 6 of The Floor is the Season of Champions, so naturally Brad, Angie, and new co-host Ashley spend nearly an hour determining whether half of these people are actually champions of anything.

    Ashley brings actual champion credentials and legitimate strategy. Angie does research. Brad shows up having watched absolutely none of the previews and immediately demands answers about champion hairdressers, HVAC competitions, hot dog racers, chess boxing, car jitsu, and why The Floor somehow found a water-purifier sales champion but couldn't locate a world-class farting champion.

    Along the way, the crew fixes Fox's entire game format for free, proposes stealing another show's million-dollar budget, debates whether normal people are disappearing from The Floor, accidentally invents The Floorhouse, and Brad proves Ashley's point about forgettable contestants by attempting to name ten people from Angie's season and dying almost immediately.

    Then everything goes completely off the rails when a discussion about the Queen of Burlesque somehow leads Brad to reveal that he buys used bathing suits at Goodwill, only to learn—in real time—from Angie and Ashley exactly who is buying used lingerie on Facebook Marketplace. Ashley calls him painfully naive, Angie educates him about the dark corners of the internet, and a perfectly respectable Floor preview briefly becomes a podcast HR would have shut down 20 minutes earlier.

    There are predictions. There is strategy. There are champions

  • Apex (2026) - Movie Torture
    2026/09/14

    Brad and Mark take on Netflix’s Apex, a movie that somehow combines Cliffhanger, The River Wild, The Hunt, a cannibal thriller, and what feels suspiciously like an AI-generated screenplay. Charlize Theron gets chased through the Australian wilderness by Taron Egerton, who gives her exactly four minutes to run while blasting The Chemical Brothers—and somehow that’s the best four minutes of the entire movie.

    Along the way, the guys debate funeral peas, celebrate Brad’s legendary fourth-grade spelling bee championship, question how anyone survives a bear trap, and discover that apparently cannibalism is all it takes for the conversation to turn into planning MTD’s barbecue dinner. Brad decides MTD’s rump roast would be the prime cut, adds slaw and a toasted bun, fires up the Traeger, and somehow Mark ends up worried that if he ever visits Brad’s house, he needs to verify exactly where the barbecue came from.

    Oh, and somewhere in there they actually review Apex—a movie Mark describes as about seven different movies mashed together, with none of them being particularly good.

    Come for the movie review. Stay to find out why MTD somehow ended up as dinner.

  • 100 Steps Later - Your Weekly Calling
    2026/09/14

    100 episodes. A lot of Bible names pronounced wrong. A few guest voices. And one faithful God through all of it.

    For the 100th episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad looks back at where it started and the simple lesson God has continued to teach him along the way: you don't need to know where the journey ends to be faithful with the next step.

    Through Joshua 4, the story of Israel's memorial stones, and a lesson from Winston Churchill, Brad challenges us to stop looking so far ahead that we forget what God has already done. Where has God been faithful in your life? What prayers has He answered? What doors has He opened—or closed? And what step is He asking you to take next?

    You don't need the entire map. You just need enough faith for the next step.

    Here's to 100 episodes—and whatever God does with the next 100.

  • God Picked the Shepherd - Your Weekly Calling
    2026/09/21

    Ever feel like everyone else is getting picked while you're stuck watching from the sidelines? In this episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad dives into 1 Samuel 16 and the surprising moment God chooses David—the kid his own family didn't even bother inviting into the room.

    Through David's story and a look at Abraham Lincoln's long road of setbacks before becoming president, Brad explores what it means to trust God's timing when you feel overlooked. Maybe you're not behind. Maybe the season that feels insignificant is actually preparing you for what's next.

    The season nobody thought mattered, mattered to God.
