Three years ago, Daniel and Ryan plugged in our mics, wide-eyed with ambitions and a shared love for pop culture. Now, we're toasting to the Pop Five podcast's third anniversary, a journey stitched with life's unpredictable events and the thrill of fresh episodes. We set the stage with Olivia Rodrigo's musical journey, from her angsty "Sour" beginnings to the matured artistry of "Guts," and how her "Teenage Dream" became a soundtrack to our own growth. Prepare to travel with us through the moments that have shaped not only the music industry but our own pop-driven hearts.Back by popular demand, Connor slides into the hot seat, ready to right the wrongs of his past pop culture picks. Revelations include his "Amish Paradise" roots and a surprising switch-up on his top five list, ushering "Weird Al" Yankovic into the hall of fame. Then, cue the nostalgia as Devin, our season one favorite, pops in for a trip down memory lane. Together, we unwrap the vibrant tapestry of our shared pop passions, from Connor's Treasure Island gigs to the latest in musical musings and the resurrection of Creed's unexpected charm.Wrapping up, we unravel the complex emotions stirring in the film "Past Lives," delving into destiny, choice, and the poignant paths our lives weave. Our conversation is a journey in itself, touching the soulful threads of Boy Genius's harmonious collaboration. So, grab your headphones and let us serenade you with this celebratory blend of storytelling, reflection, and the irresistible pull of pop culture. Here's to many more years of Pop Five's symphony of voices and melodies. Cheers!

Jay smothers Weird Al with love and appreciation for Al's perfection in his parody. We talk about Mad Magazine, Looney Tunes, pizza, travel, doing what you want, the power of an orchestra, the two pulls of being a comic vs a musician, how a true showman can come out of Linwood, and giving up architecture for being a professional goofball/genius. Bio: FEW WOULD HAVE GUESSED that “Weird Al” Yankovic – who as a shy, accordion-playing teenager got his start sending in homemade tapes to the Dr. Demento Radio Show– would go on to become a pop culture icon and the biggest-selling comedy recording artist of all time, with classic song and music video parodies such as“Eat It,” “Like a Surgeon,” “Smells Like Nirvana,” “Amish Paradise,” “White & Nerdy” and “Word Crimes.”  Now in his fourth decade as America's foremost song parodist, he has been the recipient of numerous awards, including five Grammys® (out of sixteen total nominations) and a string of Gold and Platinum albums.In 2015 and 2016, Weird Al's Mandatory World Tour encompassed 200 shows throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and Australia, including two nights at the Hollywood Bowl and a sold-out gig at New York's Radio City Music Hall.  In the spring of 2018, Al performed 77 shows as part of his Ridiculously Self-Indulgent, Ill-Advised Vanity Tour, where he and his bandmates of over 35 years played setlists composed almost entirely of his original (non-parody) material, and without any of their signature over-the-top theatrics (no costumes, props or video screens). And in 2019 Weird Al followed up his most bare-bones tour with his most extravagant tour ever – Strings Attached – where he and his band were backed for each of their 67 shows by female singers and a full symphony orchestra.Weird Al's 14th studio album, the Grammy® award-winning Mandatory Fun (2014), became the first comedy album in history to debut at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, and the first to even reach the top of that chart since 1963.  Yankovic set the U.S. record on Spotify for having the most tracks from one album in the viral top 10 at one time, taking the top four spots.  In addition, “Word Crimes” debuted in the Billboard Top 40, making Al one of only four artists to have had Top 40 singles in each of the last four decades (the other three being Michael Jackson, Madonna and U2).Al has remained active as a recording artist.  June 2017 saw the release of Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (Dreamworks), for which Al co-wrote and performed the film's theme song.  In August 2017, Al wrote and performed “The North Korea Polka (Please Don't Nuke Us)” for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO). In November 2017 Legacy Recordings released Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of “Weird Al” Yankovic, a remastered 15-disc box set (including a rarities album) plus a 120-page book of archival photos, all housed in a replica of Weird Al's trademark accordion. Al also recorded cover versions of the Squidbillies theme for Adult Swim and the Ramones' “Beat on the Brat” for a Dr. Demento compilation album, and produced remixes of two hit singles for Portugal. The Man (“Feel It Still” and “Live in the Moment”).  And March 2018 brought us “The Hamilton Polka,” a frantic tour de force mash-up of 14 songs from the Broadway smash, commissioned by Lin-Manuel Miranda himself and released as part of his “Hamildrops” series.In addition to his cult-hit feature film UHF (1989), his late ‘90s CBS Saturday morning series The Weird Al Show and numerous AL-TV specials he has made for MTV and VH1 over the years, Yankovic has remained a staple of film and television, from appearances on The Simpsons, 30 Rock, The Goldbergs and How I Met Your Mother to performing live on the Primetime Emmy Awards and starring in his own concert specials for Disney, VH1 and Comedy Central.  In 2015 Yankovic took over as co-host and bandleader for the fifth season of IFC's Comedy Bang! Bang!  Currently Al can be heard as the voice of the title character in Disney Channel's animated series Milo Murphy's Law (his other voice acting work includes appearances on Bojack Horseman, Gravity Falls, Adventure Time, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Wander Over Yonder, and the DC animated feature Batman vs. Robin). Yankovic added “New York Times bestselling author” to his resumé in 2011 with the release of his children's book, When I Grow Up (HarperCollins), followed two years later by My New Teacher and Me!  An animated series based on his children's books is currently being developed in partnership with the Jim Henson Company.   2012 saw the release of Weird Al: The Book (Abrams), an illustrated hardcover on Al's life and career, and in 2015 Yankovic became not only MAD Magazine's cover boy, but the first guest editor in their 63-year history.In 2017 NECA Toys released the second in its line of retro-clothed Weird Al action figures, and in 2018 Funko released two of its own POP! vinyl figures.  On August 27, 2018, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce awarded “Weird Al” Yankovic with the 2,643rd star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Amish Paradise. Eat It. Like A Surgeon. I Love Rocky Road. Smells Like Nirvana. I Lost On Jeopardy. White & Nerdy… Since the early 80s, “Weird Al” Yankovic has been churning out hit song parodies, some more enduring than the original songs that inspired them. An unapologetic nerd and proud outsider, his songs are not just commentaries on pop culture, they're also full of references to Star Wars, comic books and lunch meats. But there's something about the “King Of The Nerds” that speaks directly to his army of die-hard fans: It's 100% cool to be yourself, especially if you're weird. One of the outsiders Weird Al inspired is Pickles Kintaro, a burlesque dancer in San Francisco. In this episode, Pickles reveals how, as an outsider for most of her life, Weird Al's music absolutely validated her and empowered her to accept herself and then completely celebrate her weirdness. With nothing but a butter churn stripper pole, and a dream, Pickles gathered a team of misfit burlesque dancers with a shared mission. They called themselves, Tight and Nerdy: The First and Only All Weird Al-inspired Burlesque Troupe. And a legend was born. Okay, maybe not a legend but a lot of really hilarious shows. Thanks to Weird Al's legions of fans and an Instagram shout out from the King of the Nerds himself, the burlesque show was a hit from the jump.   Then they caught the eyes of filmmakers who decided to produce a documentary all about it. The film is called Showgals: The Documentary, and as of this writing it's currently the second most popular documentary product on Kickstarter. Please support this fantastic film and its lovely filmmakers here. Will “Tight and Nerdy” faithfully continue their naked tribute to Weird Al? Or are they hanging up their bologna? This question and so much more will be addressed in this very fun and revealing interview. 100,000 DOWNLOADS, BITCHES! This episode marks the 4th anniversary of Sex Ed The Musical. I'm so excited that we've had over 100,000 downloads. This season I'll be dedicating myself to stories about people who are having fun while naked…which isn't always that easy.   Also, I'm thrilled to announce the release of my new oracle cards ASK YOUR GAY BFF. Called “The answer to everything!” by beloved gay icon Bruce Vilanch, these highly opinionated and uncensored oracle cards have all the answers you'll ever need…only extremely gay. Pick up yours today at cardtobelieve.com, and don't wait, because they will definitely sell out.   Sex Ed The Musical is available on iTunes, Stitcher, Podtail, IHeartRadio, Podbay, Spotify and more.

We do something a little different this week. One of the biggest and most impactful songs of the 90s relied heavily on sampling and was subsequently significantly parodied. Both of those use the music of a nearby song to tell a new story, and it sheds some light on how the business of cover songs works. Gangsta's Paradise, originally by Coolio, sampled Pastime Paradise by Stevie Wonder, and parodied in Amish Paradise by Weird Al Yankovic. Outro music is Eat It, also by Weird Al Yankovic.

As our cultural moment grows more embattled and contentious, many of us long for alternative forms of community. Perhaps this explains our largely romantic view of the Amish. From romance novels to daydreams of a “simpler form of life,” the notion that most of us could bring our consumerist individualism into the tight knit fold of an Amish community strains credibility. But what happens when communal practice clashes with the laws of the land? Tune in as Nathan and Cameron press into this question and try to settle once and for all why so many folks think Nathan is Amish.

Los raperos estadounidenses Coolio y L.V. se anotaron un éxito mundial 1995 con su canción “Gangsta's Paradise”. El tema musical de Coolio y L.V. utiliza como base melódica una canción coescrita por gran cantautor invidente estadounidense Stevie Wonder, quien la presentó en 1976 en su álbum “Songs in the key of life” con el título “Pastime Paradise”. Así la escuché yo… El cantante y comediante Weird Al Yankovic realizó una parodia de esta canción en 1996, la cual tituló “Amish Paradise”. El salsero Ray Barreto ya había realizado una versión de esta canción 15 años antes junto a Tito Puente y Charlie Palmieri para el álbum “La cuna” de 1981, vocalizada por Willy Torres bajo el título “Pastime Paradise”. Como dato curioso, hay que decir que la versión de Coolio y L.V. se usó como banda sonora de la película “Dangerous minds “(Mentes peligrosas) de 1996, protagonizada por la actriz Michelle Pfeiffer como la profesora LouAnne. Además hay que destacar que “Gangsta's Paradise” alcanzó el número 1 en las listas de Estados Unidos, y en el Reino Unido siendo el primer sencillo de rap en vender un millón de copias. ¿Y tú conocías el origen de esta canción?

Sick Burns!: An 80's Podcast

In this episode, we unpack “Weird Al” Yankovic's hit 1988 song “Fat,” a parody of Michael Jackson's “Bad,” and discuss how it mocks heavy people in a way we now know as “fat-shaming.” While accordions and pop music may seem like strange bedfellows, Yankovic has made a long career out of parody, earning the title, “The Court Jester of Rock & Roll.” And since a discussion of Yankovic's “Fat” is also a discussion of Jackson's “Bad,” we also have the “can you separate the art from the artist?” debate. Post-recording correction: Several artists have refused Al permission from parodying his songs;  he always asks for permission first. But it was the Coolio song “Gangsta's Paradise” that Al had trouble getting permission for as he parodied it in “Amish Paradise.” He doesn't seem to have had issue with getting permission for the Chamillionaire/Krayzie Bone song “Ridin'” for his popular parody, “White and Nerdy.”Follow Along:Weird Al's original “Fat” VideoMichael Jackson's original “Bad”A snippet of The Food Medley featuring “Snack all Night” (a parody of Michael Jackson's “Black or White”) Archival footage of “Weird Al” performing My Bologna Enjoy some of Weird Al's Polkas here or here in his “Polkas on 45”Want some bratwurst while you enjoy your polkas?
