    It’s episode NUMBER ELEVEN of Weezer Has Turned and Left Us Here. This week Sara and Matt go back to their childhoods and talk about Weezer’s history with kids TV shows. From The Muppets to Yo Gabba Gabba to Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood, they talk it all. Probably the only episode that will ever reference WWE wrestling AND an alternate universe where this podcast never exists.
