Since 2010, the We Hate Movies podcast has been loudly celebrating and tearing apart movies from across the spectrum: from forgotten '80s actioners and insane romantic comedies of the '90s, to the early CGI blockbusters of the aughts and the hyper-nostalgic franchises of the 2010s and today. Every week, comedians Andrew Jupin, Stephen Sajdak, Eric Szyszka, and Chris Cabin pick a movie from the near-past to discuss and joke around about in all its positive and negative glory.
On this edition of WHM Mail Bag, we're reading some wild letters from listeners: a fella who had a co-worker that remained on the line when he went to the bathroom, someone who had one helluva time traveling cross-country with their cat, a group of friends who drank an improbable amount of malt liquor in one weekend resulting in the letter-writer throwing up on The El, and another booze-filled nightmare that ended with a guy unknowingly shaking his shit at a cop!
Have a weird/embarrassing/gross story you want read on the air? Is there a years-long movie-related feud in your family that you need quashed? Are you in desperate need of relationship advice, and you've tried literally everywhere else? Then write in to the WHM Mail Bag: [email protected]!
Be sure to catch us on the road in Minneapolis on 3/20 and Chicago on 3/22 where we’ll be talking Conan the Barbarian and Big respectively. Tickets on sale now!

“It was only a matter of time before we drew this out of a hat…” - Andrew
On this week’s episode, Listener Request Month heads to deep space as we talk about the legendary sci-fi failure, Supernova!
How many Academy Award-nominees does it take to fix a big-budget nightmare? Is this the horniest studio science fiction film? Is Robert Forster’s character getting a doctorate in cartoon studies? Despite it all, these are some pretty good ship and space effects. What's that orb's deal, really? And how many studio executives can you cram into one on-set writing trailer? PLUS: The return of the VHS Trailer Game!
Supernova stars James Spader, Angela Bassett, Robert Forster, Lou Diamond Phillips, Peter Facinelli, Robin Tunney, Wilson Cruz, and Vanessa Marshall as the voice of Sweetie; directed by “Thomas Lee.”

“It’s kind of a dirty movie…I was trying to imagine Travis Bickle taking a date to this” - Eric
On this month’s patron-requested We ❤️ Movies, we’re chatting about a real foundational flick for the four of us, Kevin Smith’s Clerks! How many VHS tapes did Chris Cabin’s house go through with this movie? How uncomfortable is it to say “View Askew-niverse” out loud? How hysterical is that funeral parlor cut? Could we bring Clerks to Broadway as a musical? And was the age of 11 too young for Steve to have seen this movie for the first time? PLUS: Michael Caine explains snowballing!
Clerks stars Brian O’Halloran, Jeff Anderson, Marilyn Ghigliotti, Lisa Spoonauer, Jason Mewes, Scott Mosier, and Kevin Smith as Silent Bob; directed by Kevin Smith.

“These Country Bears… they busted through that ceiling!” - Chris
On this week’s episode, we’re kicking off Listener Request Month 2026 with a banger convo about the totally insane Disney animatronic nightmare film, The Country Bears! Why couldn’t these bears have some different personalities from one another? Did Beary’s parents just steal a bear cub from the woods? Was Willie Nelson paid in weed? Why couldn’t we get more Stephen Tobolowsky in this movie? And how many of these bears are hooked on honey? PLUS: Rest in Peace, Country Bears’ original drummer, Toots!
The Country Bears stars Christopher Walken, Stephen Tobolowsky, Daryl Mitchell, Diedrich Bader, M.C. Gainey, Alex Rocco, Queen Latifah, and the voices of Diedrich Bader, Haley Joel Osment, Candy Ford, James Gannon, Toby Huss, Kevin Michael Richardson, Stephen Root and Brad Garrett as Fred Bedderhead; directed by Peter Hastings.

“This is such a choppy edit, thanks for nothing, Steven Seagal!” - Andrew
On this week’s show, we’re bringing “White Guy Karate” Month to a close with a banger conversation on the outrageous Steven Seagal film, Out for Justice!
How hilarious is Seagal’s Brooklyn accent? What is this outfit he’s wearing at the start of the picture? Was Seagal dubbed for the Italian dialogue? Were John Leguizamo’s scenes deleted? And should Gino have left that dog in the car the whole film? PLUS: Visit the all-new fast food sensation, Fuck Burger!
Out for Justice stars Steven Seagal, William Forsyth, Jerry Orbach, Jo Champa, Shareen Mitchell, Gina Gershon, Julianna Margulies, John Leguizamo, Raymond Cruz, and Dominic Chianese as Mr. Madano; directed by John Flynn.

“You can’t feed a replicant chocolate, dude, right to the hospital!” - Steve
On this week’s episode, “White Guy Karate” Month goes sci-fi as we talk about the totally insane JCVD/Michael Rooker action joint, Replicant!
How unsettling is JCVD with non-mullet long hair? How does this psychic link work with these fellas? How much of this movie takes place in that one hospital? Is Michael Rooker’s character helping raise his partner’s child? Is it his kid? Why does that lady have a pool table in her baby’s bedroom? And is there anything more terrifying than JCVD singing “Rock-a-Bye Baby”? PLUS: Coming to Broadway next season: Replicant The Musical!
Replicant stars Jean-Claude Van Damme, Catherine Dent, Brandon James Olson, Pam Hyatt, Ian Robison, Allan Gray, and James Hutson as Snotty Concierge; directed by Ringo Lam.

How awesome is all the kick-ass fight choreography in this? Should we be writing ninja characters named Casey? Do all movie villains know how to play chess?

PLUS: Come train with the WHM guys at the Massive Heart Attack dojo!

“It’s a rare fighting style… Party Down Boxing” - Chris, on Jackson’s fight moves
On this month’s We ❤️ Movies episode, White Guy Karate Month spills over into WLM as we chat about one of JCVD’s best, Bloodsport!
How incredible are those splits, folks? Was Frank Dux, the guy whose life this movie was supposedly based on, completely full of shit? How did Jackson get that beer into the hospital? Is Bolo Yeung the only competitor allowed to kill people in the tournament because he was the returning champion? And that brick trick: cool or dumb? PLUS: Are the founding fathers’ lives in the public domain so we can make a Mortal Kombat-esque game about them?
Bloodsport stars Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bolo Yeung, Leah Ayres, Norman Burton, Forest Whitaker, Roy Chiao, and Donald Gibb as Ray Jackson; directed by Newt Arnold.
