Episode 12
Wednesday, 17 December, 2025
Send us a textDaniel and Eric revisit the timeless classic 80's dark comedy, Better Off Dead. This time, they are joined by a special Guest Host, the films Writer/Director Savage Steve Holland! The trio discuss the film in depth, delve into some fan questions, discuss the intention behind some of the films quirkier plot moments and a whole lot more.The actual discussion was over 3 hours. Daniel managed to edit it down to under 2 hours including the following segments:* Popped Mail (Fan Questions)* General Discussion*Included are clips from our past discussion with Diane Franklin and Curtis Armstrong.* Didja Catch That? (Things the average viewer may not have caught)* Could Done Without That (Where they talk about elements that may not have worked for them)* Top 5 (The trio discuss their favorite Christmas Films. Is Better Off Dead a Christmas film? Find out what they think.)* Let's Get to Poppin'! (Where they all rate the film from one to five pops. What does Savage think of his film? How about the hosts? Will we get any surprises here?)This enjoyable discussion was our season 4 finale. As Better Off Dead was the first episode of our podcast, we found it only fitting to celebrate the 40th Anniversary by reconnecting with the film and want to thank Diane Franklin for connecting us with Savage Steve Holland. Everyone we have dealt with from this film has just been so gracious, personable and accommodating. Better Off Dead is the film that just keeps on giving as are the wonderful people connected with it. We hope you enjoy this presentation, even if you can't watch it all at once lol ... I WANT MY TWO HOURS!Please comment and let us know what you think of this TOTALLY AWESOME film. We hope we did you all well with what we were able to throw together here. Thank you, Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, and we'll see you next season.(PS... we'll try to edit some of the outtakes for our Patreon members early next year. All Patreon content eventually hits our YouTube page)Hosts Daniel and EricFormer Popped Host Ben appears in clips from previous Interviews with Diane Franklin and Curtis ArmstrongGuest Host Savage SteveMusic(Popped Intro Theme)Pulse Epic Musicby worldlikeallUplifting 80'sby Paul Yudin80's Retro Synth Waveby BoDleasonsChristmas Celebration MusicCrystal Eye OfficialThe free MusicChristmasWaveloomDeck the HallsWhite RecordsDeck the HallsHip-Hop VersionWhite RecordsWhite Christmas - PianoClavier-MusicPublic Domain ChristmasSongs Medley 3NesrealityFun Discoby MusictownSupport the showpoppedpodcast.com
