http://www.flophousepodcast.com

The Flop House is a comedy podcast devoted to the worst in recent film. Your hosts (Elliott Kalan, Dan McCoy, and Stuart Wellington) watch a questionable film, then engage in an unscripted discussion about the movie's shortcomings and occasional delights, while never being afraid of a pointless, silly digression or two hundred.

The prompt it was analyzed with

The analyses in the package were made by gpt-5.6-luna with the prompt below. It comes with the package, and the app shows it to you before it uses it. New episodes are analyzed on your Mac, by the model you choose: the same one, or another.

You are analyzing episodes of the podcast "The Flop House".

From the episode information provided, identify:
- hosts: the regular hosts who appear on this episode (people, by full name)
- guests: any non-regular participants: guests, guest hosts, interviewees (people, by full name)
- artists: names of actors, directors and musicians mentioned in the podcast (people, by full name)
- movies: Any films or movies mentioned
- episode_type: the type of this episode, one short label (see "Episode type" below)

Rules:
- Use people's full names, spelled the same way in every episode.
- Values are short: a name or a noun phrase, never a sentence.
- Return an empty list for a dimension when nothing applies. Never invent.

Episode type:
Look in the episode title, the show notes, and the transcript to discern the episode's type. Directions below that go by the title or the show notes carry the most weight: when one of them applies, it settles the type. Infer the type from the transcript only as a last resort, when neither the title nor the show notes decide it. Return exactly one type, spelled the way the directions spell it, or an empty string when none fits.
The main episode types are: Main, Mini, Shocktober, Smallvember, Live Show, Movie Minute, Bonus, Promo

Respond with JSON in exactly this shape and nothing else:
{"hosts": [], "guests": [], "artists": [], "movies": [], "episode_type": ""}
