* CowboyBeBopAtHisComputer:
** In a 2014 episode about "films that were ahead of their time" Josh claimed that ''Film/NaturalBornKillers'' (1994) "predicted criminals becoming media superstars". He [[OlderThanTheyThink seemed completely unaware that decades earlier criminals like Al Capone, Bonnie and Clyde, Charles Manson,... already became superstars thanks to romanticized media attention]].
** In the episode "Movie Controversies" Josh claimed that the Disney movie where a priest supposedly had an erect penis was ''WesternAnimation/{{The Hunchback of Notre Dame|Disney}}'': It's actually ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}''. He also said that there was controversy over ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' by Muslims over the line "where they cut off your hands if they don't like your face", while the actual line was about "ears", not hands. Then later during the broadcast he claimed there was a lot of controversy about the racial stereotypes in Creator/RalphBakshi's ''WesternAnimation/HeavyTraffic'' and that Al Sharpton protested this film. He actually meant ''WesternAnimation/{{Coonskin}}''. Justified by the show being recorded without edits, so mistakes often get live on air due to the show being live, and done on the spur of the moment.

* OneOfUs: Regardless of what you may think of him personally, it's obvious that Josh has seen and knows a ''lot'' about film, though be it mostly from the 1970s on. Brad is also extremely knowledgeable. And in general, all the hosts on the show are passionate about film.
** Josh and his co-hosts all feel immense sympathy towards film makers who have to work with a low-budget, as is rampant in the exploitation film genre. Mostly because they all know how difficult it can be.

* TrollingCreator: [[MilestoneCelebration The one year anniversary]] was a clip show, but all the clips were either from unaired early content or were increasingly outrageous faked clips, culminating in two clips where Josh explodes over Creator/GeorgeLucas and Brad getting into a physical altercation with (then) co-host Jerrid over Franchise/MyLittlePony.
