About the episode

This week on The Worst Movie Podcast, Ade and Aaron tackle Joe Dirt (2001), the David Spade vehicle that scored 9% on Rotten Tomatoes and turned an $18 million budget into $31 million at the box office. Spade plays an orphaned janitor with a wig fused to his skull, telling his life story across four days of talk radio while the entire country stops to listen. Aaron and Andrew call it middle-of-the-road bad. Ade gave it one star and didn't laugh once.

About the movie

Joe Dirt is a janitor with a mullet hairdo, acid-washed jeans and a dream to find the parents that he lost at the Grand Canyon when he was a belligerent, trailer park-raised eight-year-old. Now, blasting Van Halen in his jacked-up economy car, the irrepressibly optimistic Joe hits the road alone in search of his folks.
