It's a special hybrid episode for the "Dirty Sons of Pitches" as they finish discussing their TV project "The Void," elaborating upon three seasons of plots and twists and revealtions, while kicking off their newest podcast theme, The Flop Era, re-examining notorious Hollywood flops and failures and evaluating whether they are worthy of their negative reputation or unfairly maligned or maybe ahead of their time. Their first entry is the 1995 pirate action adventure "Cutthroat Island" starring Geena Davis, directed by her then-husband Renny Harlin, and proves to be a high-seas adventure missing just about everything you'd want in an adventure.

Episode 415 includes:

-The guys discuss the merits and many faults of the big-budget pirate adventure that bankrupted its production company. Behold, "Cutthroat Island" is not an entertaining disaster, just a curious mishandling of what could have been exciting story elements given a 90s feminist retrospective. Yo no no.

-Star Trek-ify -- "The Void" seasons 3-5 discussion

-Ben waxes about the final three seasons of his five-season plan for the sci-fi/horror TV project, "The Void," giving an overview of each season and the widening bigger plan for the universe of characters and aliens.
