Have you ever seen a movie so bad that you decide you had to show all your friends and loved ones so they can experience the same negative experience that you have suffered through. Comedians JP Fournier and Shawn Gramiak have taken sharing cinematic nasties to a whole new level. Each week they and their guest choose a movie for the other to watch, exploring the dark, scary, confusing, and sometimes pathetic world of bad movies. They are The Movie Jerks.
The Movie Jerks, JP Fournier and Shawn Gramiak, invite an old friend, Ryan Ash, back on the show. Through a meta mix up, we all picked Mystery Movies as our Mystery Movies episode.
Feature artist of the month Travis Dolter and his new single "Hell If I Know"
This might be the episode that started the run on joke "Send the Movie Jerks copies of "Howard The Duck" (on dvds or blurays), but we cannot find the connection. We are always honored to receives movies in the mail from our fellow listeners, just only baffled by how almost all of the packages have at least one copy of Howard the Duck. So... umm... Thanks?
It is always fun to find out that a returning guest, such as Liam Leroux, feels the need to bring along a stress ball when watching films with Jean Paul Fournier and Shawn Gramiak. This time The Movie Jerks tackle numerous types of romantic films that may be considered to be watched on Valentine's Day. What ended up being selected to watch truly validated an accompanying stress ball.

CLASSIC EPISODE! This episode aired May 17, 2012. We were still getting out footing on what our show would turn out to be and in this episode we tried our fates with the infamous "A Serbian Film"
Finding iconic bad films that are entertaining in their own awfulness can be like finding a needle in a haystack. But this week, we got pricked by one of those needles as we looked into movies that are potentially terrible. Taking one of the team with us is actor Cody Porter.
Originally aired on Wednesday May 9th, 2012. JP Fournier said the following of the episode "We still hadn't figured out our format quite yet and were still making alterations. Still getting used to our opening theme which we thought might have been temporary... little did we know. During this period our topics may have been more adult orientated, with crude situations and blue language." That being said, listeners discretion is advised.
After multiple episodes of our guest Nathan Semenyna being tortured by our movie picks for him, we allowed him to pick a safer genre of films, Nicolas Cage films. And yes, we believe that Nicolas Cage is a genre in and of himself. So get your Cage on and dive into the realm of a Nicolas Cage film.
