How Did This Get Made? is a podcast on the Earwolf network, starring comedians Paul Scheer, Jason Mantzoukas, and June Diane Raphael. Each episode, the three comedians (plus guest star) come together to discuss a movie that was a flop, a critical failure, or just plain bonkers. They trade jokes, ramble back and forth about the events of the film, and try to figure out... well, see the title. | |

How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: Paul to an extent, following the observation that he's the Ego, June is the Superego, and Jason is the Id of the Power Trio. Paul is perfectly capable of getting fully into the wackiness of any given movie, but compared to Jason's Lovable Sex Maniac tendencies and the Cloud Cuckoolander that is June he still somehow manages to come off as grounded by comparison. | |

Hidden Depths | |
How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Hidden Depths: June is a professional screenwriter and actress, so she knows a lot about story-pacing and character arcs. Jason also has an encyclopedic knowledge of film history and trivia, rattling off tons of classic films and actors in the "Liz & Dick" episode alone. June also has the most enthusiasm for action films on the show, and is the most animated talking about films like Speed 2: Cruise Control and "Fair Game". Jason, by contrast, has the most enthusiasm for dramas. In the "Body Rock" episode, guest host Alison Brie reveals she learned breakdancing for the second season of GLOW (2017). | |

After watching it and realizing it did not have Nicolas Cage, Chelsea watched the older movie. Neither movie explained what a "deadfall" is. | |

Episodes also ended with the old version of Earworlf's audio Vanity Plate of a wolf howl, explosion and announcer flatly stating, "The wolf dead." | |

Hilariously Abusive Childhood: While Paul by no means, on HDTGM, describes an outright abusive childhood, he often regales with what he believes to be lighthearted stories of being a weird latchkey-kid only-child of divorced parents, that his cohosts find equally parts hilarious and upsetting. | |

How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_72757e0d | comment |
"Not Making This Up" Disclaimer: Comes up frequently whenever the hosts mention one of the more absurd scenes or pieces of dialogue within the movie. One example comes from the 88 Minutes episode when one of Al Pacino's lines is to ask "Did you ever let an unauthorized person into my secure files area?" When Paul says how Miami Connection debuted at the Cannes Film Festival in 1987, both Jason and the audience are stunned. | |

She keeps saying "He's so small" over and over again for thirty seconds, as if trying to internalize the concept. Everyone has one when discussing the title of Reindeer Games, when they realize that the main characters are named "Rudy and "Nick". Paul seems to have one while discussing that the villain of Virtuosity is a computer program. Guest host Taran Killam says it finally broke Paul. | |

Riddle for the Ages: How an unusual joke in The Last Dragon is treated by the hosts and Hannibal Buress. "How about something in a medium-sized Oriental?" "No thanks, I'm not Jewish." | |

Not So Above It All: June is easily the most serious of the hosts, but gleefully gives into the madness when reviewing ridiculous movies like Fair Game or From Justin to Kelly. | |

Troubled Production | |
How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_a76de48b | comment |
Troubled Production: invoked Not often on the show, but definitely a subject for discussion. The crew spends half of the episode on The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996) discussing all the bizarre shit that happened behind the scenes and trammeled it up. On the Deck the Halls episode, guest Andrea Savage describes how the set was as cold as a refrigerator due to a series of intersecting personal troubles on the part of the actors. According to Paul, Xanadu went from a budget of $4 million to $20 million. Commentary from the director reveals they were initially working from a script of 45 pages (as a general estimate, one page of screenplay means one minute of film—90 pages would be a good first draft), and producer Brian Grazer had to lock the screenwriter in a hotel room for a weekend in an effort to get the script padded out (which didn't really succeed). Mel Brooks came on the show to talk about the buget for Solarbabies ballooning from $5 million to $25 million, some of which was his own money. When the budget was cut for The Last Dragon by $2 million, the director and screenwriter worked on the script in a hotel room. Paul says that when the screenwriter fell asleep, the director deleted 40 pages, about a third of the script. Guest host Hannibal Burgess points out since that was in 1985, before portable word processors became popular, the pages would have been just thrown away instead of deleted. | |

Precision F-Strike: June is the host least prone to swearing, which adds to her reaction when, during the Howard the Duck episode, the gang goes through the movie and finds evidence of June's earlier statement that Howard had been trying to fly. Happens again during the Hackers review, when June is told that hackers managed to remotely hack a Jeep and responds with an explosive, "Fuck that!" Also, June really didn't care for Highlander II: The Quickening. | |

How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_c104b27e | comment |
What Do You Mean, It's for Kids?: invoked Very likely to come up when a kids' movie is reviewed and contains scenes that you would not expect in a kids' film. For example, noting scenes like a near rape or the electric chair from Ernest Goes to Jail, or the fact that the antagonists of Top Dog are not only white supremacists, but make a racist "wetback" joke in the early portions of the movie that went over the hosts' heads, never mind a child's. | |

How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_c1d5b78 | comment |
Reading the Stage Directions Out Loud: In the Lake Placid episode, this is the only logical explanation the hosts can agree on for the otherwise nonsensical Brendan Gleeson line, "Everyone's a comedian, sarcastic." Jason will express his uncertaintly or confusion by saying something and ending the sentence with "...Question mark?" In the The Great Wall review he calls it "Vocalized Punctuation." | |

Fun with Acronyms: Guest host Sarah Silverman thought that SID 6.7, the villain of Virtuosity, has a ridiculous name since it stands for "Sadistic, Intelligent, Dangerous." Then she says it isn't any less ridiculous than "International Business Machine." Jason follows this up by listing various abbreviations and acronyms. | |

Cloud Cuckoolander: June has a reputation for rather off-the-wall questions and trying to piece together very bizarre facts from even more bizarre movies. Even in episodes where June isn't on the show, Jason may respond to a similarly absurd statement with, "Well, you see, June..." (in the Deep Blue Sea episode, about half a dozen people are referred to as June). The Masters of the Universe episode reveals it runs in the family, as June's dad apparently mistook her for Cillian Murphy and thought she'd landed the starring role in Sunshine. June's suspicious reaction to Paul bringing home a BB-8 toy: | |

How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_e2f13529 | comment |
World of Jerkass: Discussed in some of their reviews. Deep Blue Sea in particular was so full of jerkasses that the hosts legitimately could not work out who the protagonist was supposed to be, and are shocked to discover that the original draft had the woman they regarded as the film's villain as the hero of the story. In particular, the hosts are horrified by her recounting having to see her Alzheimer's-afflicted father react to being told his wife was dead on a daily basis when he asked about her, when the hosts note she could have simply lied. | |

Catchphrase | |
How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_e6b5d22f | comment |
Catchphrase: Paul's "Hello, people of Earth!" Paul and Jason are both fond of saying that a given movie "posits a world in which ___." Jason: Jason calling things "bonkers" to the point that it became the show's coupon code. He also uses the Mad Libs Catch Phrase of "If you told me [X], I would believe it!" Jason also often says things are "coocoo crazy" or "coocoo bananas". Jason also likes to "conservatively" estimate various overuses of tropes or phrases in a movie. On live shows, Jason greets the audience with "What's up, jerks!" Chastising audience members by telling them to "relax." June tends to find things "deeply upsetting." Early on in the shows run, the regulars were often caught using "literally" wrong, prompting fans to make counts of how often the hosts misused it for each episode. | |

Paul lampshades this during their Clip Show episode, noting that he's the Ego, June the Superego, and Jason the Id. | |

Crossover: The review of A View to a Kill is a crossover with Matt Gourley and Matt Mira of the James Bonding podcast.

The review of Disclosure has Nick Kroll and Emily Altman as a crossover (kind of) with Big Mouth. They are reviewing the movie because of the "Disclosure The Movie: The Musical" episode of Big Mouth. | |

Running Gag | |
How Did This Get Made? (Podcast) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: In general: Paul and June's excessively formal introductions to each other for a married couple at the beginning of episodes. This seemed to get formalized in 2013, after Paul F. Thompkins lampshades it in the After Earth episode. Jason getting aroused by at least one thing in the movie. "June, how much would you say you know about [topic]?" "I know a little..." Jason hypothesizing that the entire movie being discussed exists in a "Jacob's Ladder-style" Dying Dream has come up in a good third of the episodes. June forgetting everything about the movie minutes after having watched it. Someone (usually Jason) automatically comparing the set design in any bad sci-fi movie to that of Pluto Nash. June stating a wildly unpopular opinion about the movie, and restating it after being made fun of. Paul plugging his other podcast Unspooled, where they watch slightly better movies, and June and Jason complaining about never being invited. Individual episodes: June has no idea what a Street Fighter is Deck the Halls: "Allegedly" Maximum Overdrive: Is that a machine?" (Alternatively: the only answer to the film's pressing questions is "Stephen King on cocaine") Death Spa: A miscarriage, otherwise known as a "birth accident." My Stepmother Is an Alien: "PUT'ER IN A BRA!" It's one suggestion on how Kim Basinger's strip scene in would have made a modicum of sense. | |
