Episode notes
This week we decided to celebrate the season of giving thanks by watching the Ridley Scott epic Gladiator, starring Russell Crowe as a hunky Spaniard who must defeat the a sexy ratboy Emperor played by Joaquin Phoenix.
We are excited to announce that Free With Ads will be doing our first ever LIVE SHOW at San Francisco Sketchfest 2025! Join Jordan, Emily, producer Matt Lieb, and a very special guest at the Punch Line in San Francisco on January 23rd at 7:30pm for a live show you will never forget. Get your tickets NOW!
Free With Ads merch is finally here! Go to the MaxFun store now and buy something for yourself!
Also, we are having a contest! If you buy some merch and take a picture of yourself with that merch and send it to freewithads@maximumfun.org, we will pick one of you and the winner will get to have any song they want Godzilla-fied. That’s right, Matt will make a Godzilla remix of your favorite song.

About the show
Why pay for streaming services when movies like Timecop and Grease 2 can be watched for nothing more than the cost of enduring a few loud, unskippable ads? Join us every week for a dive into the internet’s bargain bin!
Emily Fleming and Jordan Morris are real friends, real comedy writers and real cheapskates. They met working in comedy writing rooms and bonded over their love of “trashy” pop culture and saving a buck. They’re combining these loves for the podcast Free With Ads, a movie review show dedicated to the weird, amazing, inexplicable movies streaming free on an internet near you.
