Picture Steve Jobs tinkering with a computer in his garage.
Beyonce practicing dance moves in her childhood bedroom.
Every big moment starts with a big dream.
But what happens when that big dream turns out to be
a big flop?
These are the most insane details.
How many hundreds of millions were lost here?
How are they allowing this to happen
without any oversight?
From Wondery and At Will Media,
I'm Misha Brown,
and this is The Big Flop.
Every week, comedians join me to chronicle the biggest flubs, fails, and blunders of all time, like Four Loko.
What? I'm scandalized. There's an amount you can drink and then your boogers come out of your body.
And Quibi.
It's kind of like when you give yourself your own nickname and you try to, like, get other people to do it.
And the 2019 movie adaptation of Cats.
Like, if I'm watching the dancing and I'm noticing the feet aren't touching the ground, there's something wrong with the movie.
Find out what happens when Massive Hype turns into major fiasco.
These guys, they're going all the way until something happens.
