Join Stephen Foxworthy, Brett Wright, and Tucker as they dive into the specifics of those ’Franchises of One’ - films that were meant to kick off major film franchises... but ultimately failed to do so! Together they examine the people, properties, and potential of each ’failed franchise starter’ with wit and humor without ’punching down.’
"Oh!..So it's a girl house."
We're back!
After a long hiatus, The Disenfranchised Podcast is back, but maybe a little different. You'll see what I mean. It's not done evolving either, so stay tuned!
This week, in honor of the recent release of Maggie Gyllenhaal's "The Bride!", we are going to talk about another "girl monster" by discussing 2006's Monster House. Evan "Jimmy" Wilson keeps Tucker company as he tries, and mostly succeeds, to keep this ship afloat!
Our dad is at the pharmacy and our mom is at the movies with her personal trainer, but we're on social media! :

257 - The Electric State (2025)
"Our world is a tire fire floating on an ocean of piss."
It's our last episode of 2025 AND our first episode of 2026?! How can this be??? Listen to our annual episode on a failed franchise starter from the year that was and, along the way, discuss our thoughts on the oeuvre of David Lynch, Tucker's explanation of the proper way to use of AI, and our frustrations with the work of the Brothers Russo.
Is it future or is it past? Hell of we know, but check us out on the following social platforms anyway:

REWIND 014 - Ghostbusters (2016)
"You guys! This is exactly how I pictured my death!"
Filmmaker Paul Feig has a new movie in theaters this week (The Housemaid), so we're rewinding ask the way back to November 2021 when we first discussed the director's work!
We discuss the cast, the writing, and the politics! Their decisions to cater to the fanboys while also making fun of them! We attack both sides of the discourse surrounding this movie, Brett has trouble articulating points and your mileage may vary! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats, living together...mass hysteria!
If there's something strange in YOUR neighborhood, who are YOU going to call? Hopefully not us. You CAN find us on social media, though. Do that instead:
