I'm having so much fun listening to this podcast! It's a great start with interesting facts about some wild, crazy flop. If I want to do a deep dive, I am perfectly primed for more! Love the host's delivery and humor!

Very fun! It's not a serious deep dive packed with details, but it's funny and informative. I've laughed out loud while hearing about well-known and new-to-me flops. Well-produced, funny host and guests.

Thought it was going to go more into the history and catastrophe of these products. I don't want to hear people giving their opinions on these things.
