467: Afraid, with Chris Weitz

29th November 2025

Our guest goes through the looking glass to discuss his own film.

Episode notes

Our friend Chris Weitz knocked politely and requested to be allowed into the lion’s den, becoming the first director to come on a full episode to discuss his OWN work. That’s right, on this Flop House we discuss AfrAId, a movie written and directed by (checks notes) Chris Weitz. And surprisingly (?) it’s one of our most joyful episodes. God bless you, brave sir.

We’re coming back to San Francisco Sketchfest on January 25! Get tickets now! OR, if you prefer to watch us from the comfort of your own home: Flop TV Season 3 tix are ON SALE!
