Wasted Potential Podcast

Wasted Potential is back to our normal shenanigans with a commentary track on Secret Window! We rewatch this 2004 thriller starring Maria Bello, John Turturro, Timothy Hutton and some forgotten actor named Jonathan Depp. We do not do a good job describing the plot so be sure you have recently watched it or follow along with us as intended. This film is full of twisty spoilers and tasteless jokes s...

Welcome back to Wasted Potential Podcast! We watch movies from our past and are horrified at what we used to enjoy. This week, we head back in time to the late 90's in which teenagers make sexist bets and women forgive selfish jocks because the film tells them too. We are watching She's All That and Ronnie hates Shane for making him view it. This is the worst film we have watched together. We also...

Wasted Potential Podcast is back this week with 2002's audience beloved film John Q. We make fun of the health care system, unemployed Americans, medical professionals, wrestling fans, security guards, and everything else that can get us in trouble.

Live from our underground bunker -- Wasted Potential is back and bigger than ever!!! We return again to 2002 to watch Reign of Fire.

Wasted Potential is back and podcasting live from the Bayou! We are just as wasted as well as potentially ruining our lives. This week Shane forces Ronnie to watch 1993's Free Willy.

It's the end of the world, and we're watching the M. Night Shyamalan film Signs. Shamed Catholic deacon Mel Gibson plays a melancholy priest/ farmer and Joaquin Phoenix plays a slow jock who discovers that aliens are putting intergalactic graffiti in their crop fields. This movie is preachy and is the funniest movie of 2002. The boys are back to rambling, drinking and avoid talking about the film....
