Hey Folks,

Somehow it's that time again: its time to shake you down for a question for us to answer in this month's Big Daddy Dispatch! Here's the prompt:

As we just dropped our 500th Episode (or part one of it, anyway, Part 2 is out this Thursday!) what would be a good retrospective/reflective question for the the gang? Please keep it brief and direct and PLEASE, sign with how your name and location should appear in this month's dispatch. 

Thanks,

Steve

Hey gang! How did you guys managed to keep everything together for this entire decade? I’m sure you had fights or conflicts with each other (as any group of friends that also happens to be human), but it’s truly admirable to realize how constant you all seem to be since the beginning, the show never suffered from fluctuations of mood, it has been always super fun.

After years of ridicule, Mark Wahlberg, Christopher Lambert, Jim Belushi and Gerard Butler start a podcast called We Hate We Hate Movies. They try to prove that you’re a bunch of hacks by reviewing all the same movies as you and hoping they’re much funnier. Which episode do you look forward to hearing the most? - Matt from London, ON, Canada

TyrannosaurusRen

Congrats on 500 episodes, guys. As someone who has tried and failed at podcasting, the commitment and time management required to reach that number is impressive. I’m curious, have you ever come close to calling it quits with the podcast? Thanks for all the laughs. —Ren from Amarillo, TX

Martin caldwell

Martin. Ireland Do the gang think the quality of B movie classics has gotten worse as time moves on? The soul seems to have left them to the point some of todays entrys look and feel worse than a so bad its good movie from 92. There also seems to be less and less character actors in modern cinema that added a sense of delight when they randonly show up in shower curtain 4 - the awakening back in the day.

The Minimal Nerd

Hey Gents! Congratulations on such a special milestone of an episode! More power to you guys. :) So much about the show is the warm, wholesome connections that you guys share between each other, so I'd actually be interested to know how your individual friendships evolved over the years? Was it smooth sailing always or were there some bumps along the way? - Sid from Mumbai, India

profondo robbo

Out of all the episodes you've done over the years, which ones are you personally proudest of?

Paul Joseph

Do you prefer an evil M. Emmett Walsh, or more bumbling?

Moist

When I saw James Badge Dale in 24 he struck me as a fairly shitty actor (I know he was a major character in the early 90s Lord of the Flies, but he was like 12). Now I find most of his movie choices really interesting and he's always one of the best parts of the movie. Is there an actor/actress that you initially wrote off as shitty, but have come to enjoy. (Caveat here is no musicians.) Nathan - Minneapolis

Joe Barrett

Joe from Baltimore. If you were each in charge of programming a streaming channel, what would be on the schedule?

GrizzlyGrizzlyGrizzly

What's the longest period of time it ever took you to watch a director's complete filmography. I saw John Waters' Multiple Maniacs in 1996, and only just recently saw Cecil B. Demented, which means it took me 24 years (because of availability) to put together Waters filmography. - Cody, Newport, Oregon.

Patrick Drumm

If you could re-record any of your 500 episodes, which would it be, and why?

Angel Echevarria

What’s the end goal for WHM where do you see it going Angel from Taxachusetts

Darcy MacDonald

How can you ever not hate a movie once the WHM lens is firmly mounted? I find myself only seeing the crap in everything since getting in on you guys’ work.
