What makes a film a "Box Office Bust"? This question is what keeps NJ stand up comic Liam Wolfe up at night. Each week, Wolfe along with fellow cinephiles Matt Larue and Matthew Komar sit down, share laughs and discuss Hollywood's most notorious failures. "BOMBED!" is a film comedy podcast where we attempt to answer those burning questions and deep dive into the finer details to fully grasp what went wrong with these motion picture disasters.
