Ep23 - World's Greatest Dad

Who Dropped The Popcorn? Episode 23 - World's Greatest Dad

This episode's choice is Shafi's, who has chosen Bobcat Goldthwait's 2009 black comedy, World's Greatest Dad, starring the one and only Robin Williams!

Listen in as we discuss this underrated comedy gem, the fickle nature of public perception, our favourite members of Police Academy and our best memories of Robin Williams.

Also, Dave admits that he's never seen Hook, Andy and Dave discuss their "room mate pact" and the whole group confuse their Kyle's.

Warning - this film choice deals with the subjects of suicide and grief, so I'd skip this episode if those are trigger points for you.

Warning 2 - this episode also contains multiple references to autoerotic asphyxiation and wanking. So if you are offended by these, again I'd skip this episode.

So sit back, relax, but keep your belt on and welcome to Who Dropped The Popcorn!
