In 2022, our co-founders Gabriel Theis and Connor McCarthy launched "Not That Bad: A Movie Podcast." The show aimed to bring at least a little bit of positivity to the world on online movie discourse, and to give the co-hosts an excuse to discuss the "bad" movies they loved. Over time, the desire to produce more types of content grew, and from this desire, That Bad Media was born. As an evolution and extension of our original intentions, That Bad Media will continue to try to have and release as much fun as possible.
