The Shitshow Podcast

By Leo Gura - May 29, 2024

This channel/podcast is genius. It breaks down the behind the scene shitshows of Hollywood. And the chemistry and banter of this podcast trio is just God-tier. Listening to them banter is so much fun. If you’re a film buff, you gotta listen to this podcast.

I mentioned in my latest video on The Psychology Of Being Wrong how easy it is to be wrong about large creative projects, such as making a film or a video game. Until you try to make something like that for yourself you have no idea how insanely difficult it is.

The following podcast explains the epic shitshow behind the making of a never-released film called Empires Of The Deep. This film was the pet project of a Chinese billionaire and it was so poorly managed it burned through $130 million dollars and turned out so cringe it was never even released. The story behind its development is wild and insane, full of rookie traps and human wrongness.

If you like that, you’ll find many more on their YT channel.

Here’s another one I liked:

If you want to be successful, it’s very important to make a study of all the failures of Hollywood, or whatever industry/field you’re interested in. Notice how many traps you learn about as you listen to these podcasts. This is one of the ways you get wise to traps: you diligently study all the people who failed before you. And in this case, it couldn’t be more fun. So grab a drink and some popcorn and enjoy listening to every trap that exists in Hollywood.
