It's THAT time of year, dear flop tarts, stars, and tinas!
We present: Flop Soup's grand retrospective for 2025, the 2025 Floppy Awards! The awards where we determine who really WAS the floppiest of them all.
We also reveal a few midnight hour flops that revealed themselves in the final weeks of 2025 (we're looking at YOU, Academy Awards on YouTube in 2029).
And finally, we present our ins & outs for 2026 (and yes, in and out lists are so OUT but this podcast is about being floppy so we're NOT gonna stop doing them!).
Thank you for listening all year long and we can't wait for Flop Soup Season 4 aka the year 2026!
