Bret McKenzie is one of New Zealand's most celebrated creatives — a musician, comedian, actor, and Oscar-winning songwriter. Best known as one half of the iconic Flight of the Conchords, Bret takes us behind the scenes of their rise from Wellington bars to HBO stardom and global fame. Super surreal having Bret on the pod, I've been a massive FOTC fan since I was a young fella! We dive into the creative process behind their hit songs, the surreal experience of winning an Academy Award, and the reality of navigating sudden fame. Bret opens up about why they chose to step away at the peak, chasing creative freedom over celebrity. A rare, honest conversation with a true Kiwi legend. Hope you enjoy!

What We Do in the Shadows Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! Join hosts Coy Jandreau and Andrew Gordon as they sink their fangs into the hilarious world of the 2014 comedy mockumentary, What We Do in the Shadows. Directed by Taika Waititi (Jojo Rabbit, Thor: Ragnarok), this cult favorite follows a group of eccentric vampire roommates in Wellington, New Zealand, as they navigate the absurd challenges of modern life while clinging to centuries-old traditions. Taika Waititi dazzles as the suave and quirky vampire Viago, infusing the film with his signature humor, along with Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords, Men in Black III) as the world-weary vampire Vladislav, Jonathan Brugh (Thor: Love and Thunder) as the rebellious Deacon, & Ben Fransham (Ash vs. Evil Dead, Time Bandits) rounds out the crew as the ancient & enigmatic Petyr. Coy & Andrew break down every iconic moment—from the mockumentary-style interviews that hilariously recontextualize vampire myths, to the absurd vampire council scenes and clever parodies of modern life that have made this film a perennial cult classic. Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering it for the first time, join us for an in-depth reaction and review that celebrates every bite of this uniquely funny flick!

Moopsy! As Lower Decks is back for the last time, we're looking at three animated Star Trek episodes, specifically ones about strange creatures. The Eye of the Beholder brings us weird dopey-looking elephant slug things who are actually more evolved than humans! A Tribble Called Quest brings us all kinds of mutant tribbles including a bizarre horrible Tribble with a face! Ugh… I Have No Bones, Yet I Must Scream brings us an adorable monster in Moopsy, who may have done one or two things wrong. Moopsy! 00:03:55 What Non-Star Trek Thing We've Been Enjoying: Still Wakes the Deep, Kew Gardens' Halloween Trail 00:09:58 Star Trek: The Animated Series “The Eye of the Beholder” 00:35:37 Star Trek: Prodigy “A Tribble Called Quest” 00:56:03 Star Trek: Lower Decks “I Have No Bones, Yet I Must Scream” Talking points include: Pokémon, which Pokémon wore sunglasses the best? Dave Willis, Still Wakes the Deep, big ups to The Chinese Room, Alien Isolation, Kew Gardens, Merry Xmas Everyone, that song from X-Men Apocalypse or whatever one it was, Charlie tries to remember X-Men: Dark Phoenix, Roger Dean album covers, sand trouts in Dune, that one Flight of the Conchords song where a leg gets eaten, Play-Doh, Morph, vast, desolate landscapes, does The Federation still have Timpsons? You don't put the Scottish in a zoo, space zoos, Equilibrium, at some point Charlie should watch Star Trek, dunking on Chakotay, picking up a story partway through, Peter David's weird universal Majel Barrett thing, X-Men, I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream, Todd in the Shadows, Miles gets angry at Charlie, the show and himself for having to listen to Oliver Anthony Music, Anthony Michael Hall, self-destructive insubordination at work, bones and teeth aren't the same thing, Charlie's childhood rabbit and the little bunny gulag, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Nolan North, Vegeta & Goku workforce dynamics, trying to stop from having any Big Bang Theory rants, can you tell Charlie's vamping for time because he forgot who wrote I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream? The Spoony Experiment, Awesomed by Comics, Miles was right to be a despairing heap on a men's room floor given the election results. Oh, and occasionally Star Trek. Pedant's Corner: While I don't recall Karate Kid being in a zoo in The Legion of Super-Heroes, there was a tragic story about Beast Boy of Lallor dying defending a girl from a zoo animal. The fish that nibble you in those baths are not piranhas. DO NOT have piranhas nibble your feet. Oliver Anthony Music has since given up music, I assume it was pressure from us at Casual Trek.

Blurb:  We talk about Philosophy, comedy writing, agreeing with the show runner, not being afraid of the truth, the power of walking sticks, trying to figure out if God exists is dumb, Brooklyn as a place to grow up, and whether to lie to your kids about Santa Clause.Bio: A native of Flatbush, New York, Eric Kaplan began writing for Spy magazine and the Harvard Lampoon before getting his first television-writing job on The Late Show with David Letterman.  Before THE BIG BANG THEORY, he worked on other shows including Futurama (for which he won an Emmy), Flight of the Conchords, Malcolm in the Middle, and Andy Richter Controls the Universe.  Kaplan created "Zombie College" for icebox and co-created "The Drinky Crow Show" and "Mongo Wrestling Alliance" for Adult Swim through his company Mirari Films.   Kaplan has his PhD from UC Berkeley in philosophy on the comic in the philosophy of Soren Kierkegaard.  His book Does Santa Exist: A Philosophical Investigation was published by Dutton in 2014 and has been called by Matt Groening "the funniest philosophy book since...well, ever."  His science fiction and philosophy have appeared in the New York Times.    

You simply can't have too much Jennifer Coolidge, and Austenland (2013, available on Amazon & Apple) just let the woman who couldn't memorize lines go the F off in this pretend-Regency Era movie, where Keri Russell goes to a Jane Austen immersive resort/amusement park, falls in fake and real love, and we do a modern "Pride & Prejudice" retelling. We also get one of the "Flight of the Conchords" guys, Jane Seymour, the director of "Napoleon Dynamite," and a fake horse that is probably a donkey. This one goes up on Patreon first, and because it's so thematically appropriate, on Bridgerton Bros a week later. Join us over at patreon.com/kevinandjon for ALL our fun. Thanks to Soulmate & Patreon Pal extraordinaire Courtney McPhail for the request, and to all you dukes & debutantes for the support!

HODD overseas adventure time! We headed to Wellington to chat with Kiwi comedy and music legend, and one half of Flight of the Conchords, Bret McKenzie and he gave us a masterclass on playing with our kids. Bret makes up silly stuff for a day job (he even won an Oscar for it!) and as a dad he's focused his gift for absurdity and daftness into creating pro level games for his kids, and he gives us some of his best hits. They're awesome! Seriously, you're gonna want to write them down.  Bret also has some great insights about why putting in the time is so powerful, why connecting with community and investing in your neighbourhood is so good for your kids and also how to keep a lookout for that special thing that fires your kid up and ignites that spark of interest. He also reveals that despite his best efforts he might never get a billy cart built for his younger son. When it comes to DIY construction, Bret makes a great songwriter. However, one great thing Bret has constructed is a life that ensures he is there for his family, and his passion for simply turning up and providing consistency for his kids is clear… even if this means they just think he's a half decent chauffeur.  We can't thank Bret enough for having a chat, we got seriously inspired on the creative play front, and man did we laugh a lot. Bret's album, Songs without Jokes is here on Apple or here on Spotify - check it out! And obviously, if you've never seen Flight of the Conchords, please drop everything now and do so - it truly is one of the all time greats. You can contact us howotherdadsdad.com — On our little NZ adventure we needed cars to move our families and gear around, and of course we used our friends at HERTZ.  Getting the keys was a breeze, the cars were brand new and in great condition, and drop off back at the airport was super simple and lightening fast.  So next time you travel, do the same and use HERTZ.  And if that travel is in Australia, go to hertz.com.au/hodd where you can grab a 25% discount off the base rate.

This week Ari sits down with Tony Kiewel, the President of Sub Pop Records and co-founder of ORCA (Organization for Recorded Culture and Arts). Sub Pop has repped iconic artists like Nirvana, Soundgarden, Beach House, The Postal Service, Flight of the Conchords, Iron & Wine, Father John Misty, and many more. Tony's organization, ORCA, is a “think tank comprised of international independent music labels committed to increasing music's economic, social, and cultural value.” ORCA has done incredible research to demonstrate the tangible value of music in our society. ORCA also works with numerous record labels to increase financial and contractual transparency between labels and artists. In this episode, Tony shares the inner-workings of his experience at Sub Pop. He breaks down how independent record labels function in 2024 and how exactly his label invests in the future of their artists. Ari and Tony discuss how ORCA's research could help influence law and policy changes for the music industry and how the organization helps people outside of the industry understand how things work. Tony talks about what Sub Pop looks for when it comes to signing new artists, how they develop current artists on their roster, and how they go about working with undiscovered artists vs. artist on the cusp of stardom.

Odds and Ends: T.J.'s back from another Gen Con with another screening of one of our short films; David Lynch is sick, and also sick; We like HBO shows so much that we'll start calling it Max if they ask really nicely Feature Film: We discuss a Kiwi comedy classic, What We Do in the Shadows, by a couple of the guys who worked on Flight of the Conchords. It's a mockumentary comedy-horror that has been very inspirational to our own videos and comedy styles. It's also just a very funny movie.

Actor, comedian, and podcaster Rhys Darby returns to the show to talk about new episodes of The Cryptid Factor show, and all things monstrous and extraterrestrial — as well as the significance of his show Our Flag Means Death, which ended far too soon. You know Rhys Darby from Flight of the Conchords, the Jumanji reboots. the What We Do in the Shadows film, The X-Files revival, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, and most recently as the gentleman pirate Stede Bonnet in Our Flag Means Death alongside his buddy Taika Waititi. But Rhys Darby is also a fan of high strangeness, and is one-third of the long-running podcast The Cryptid Factor with Dan Schreiber, and Leon 'Buttons' Kirkbeck. Since 2008 they have passionately (and often awkwardly) been discussing 'cryptids' and monsters like Yeti, Chupacabra, Bigfoot and Nessie - as well as weird news of the world, UFO's, time travelers, robots and space stuff. Though they take these pseudosciences as seriously as they can, they struggle to take themselves seriously at all.

Kicking off this pod, Ben recounts his visit to Gunnerysbury Museum to see "Set to Stun: Designing and Filming Sci-Fi in West London". Then we watch and discuss the two teaser trailers put out by the BBC in anticipation of Ncuti Gatwa's first season of Doctor Who with our usual spoiler-free rampant speculation, wild theories, spotting of the pre-title sequence clip, and more. Opening music is from "Bowie" by Flight of the Conchords and closing music is from David Bowie's demo of "Changes". We recorded this episode on 21 April 2024.

Griefcat: From the German word Kummerspeck or in English “grief bacon,”   the weight you gain from emotional eating or, in this case, the cat you get after a breakup.    Annie Nardolilli: Singer, Songwriter, Guitar Louisa Hall: Singer, Songwriter, Ukulele   What does a Mormon ex-sheriff and an Atheist tech employee have in common?  No, that's not the beginning of an elaborate joke and Griefcat isn't the punchline.  Instead, Annie Nardolilli and Louisa Hall, the masterminds behind Griefcat, are a duo that you can't easily categorize or file into a neat little genre. They are mutually perpetuating forces in matching outfits who together create beautifully blended harmonies and brilliant lyrics, with an unpredictable twist.  They've been compared to Flight of the Conchords, Tenacious D, Norwegian duo Ylvis, and Garfunkel and Oates by fans, but if you ask Annie to describe their sound, she'll say “We're like if Taylor Swift, Dolly Parton, and Bo Burnham met up at an Olive Garden and wrote a song while eating unlimited breadsticks. Does that make sense? Probably not.”    On their brilliant album Late Stage Capitalism, the nine tracks range from flat out hilarious to unexpectedly thought provoking, each with a unique sound and lyrics to tickle the soul.  An amalgamation of musical talent, these troubadours of the modern age display immense songwriting skills and infinite humor, with topical songs that not only dazzle but also make you smile and laugh while making fun of the world in which we live.  The musicianship stands out on its own too; traditional instruments abound but you will also hear slide guitar, ukulele, trumpet, trombone, violin, and cello peppered throughout the album.  The album explores how unbridled capitalism has invaded every facet of modern life, from workplace politics to interpersonal relationships, and even our most private moments.    They came up with the title in early 2020 when they wrote arguably their most well-known song on the album to date, “Revolution (Poop At Work)” which catapulted the duo to viral infamy and a strong following with over 25 million organic views of their videos, more than 15 million of those views for that song alone.  Even Questlove commented on the song, saying “LOL I feel seen, I see my version as a political act.”  They've also received likes from SZA and actor Alan Tudyk for their posts, among others.    “Revolution (Poop At Work)” is a song about how even the smallest acts of defiance can be revolutionary. “So much of the 2020s feel like the 1920s all over again - the income inequality is staggering, and the rich are getting richer while others are struggling,” says Louisa.  “Late stage capitalism is at the core of our entire album, but this is the song that most explicitly calls this out. We always tell audiences it's our most cerebral song, then we dive into a 1.5 minute poop joke.  Life can be crappy, but it's so much more fun to laugh your way through it!”    Other songs on the album include “I Just Want To Get Inside (Your Bank Account),” an unanticipated, ‘90s-style love song with a hilarious contradiction between two women looking for two different things when it comes to a new relationship.  Are they looking for love or money? It also shines a light on dating culture and how much sensitive personal information we share online every day.  “Crytpobro” is a traditional country tune with all the makings of a hit song.  It's a melodic, catchy, and current, and a breakup song about losing love, in this case to the cult of Cryptocurrency and the church of Elon Musk.  The opening track, “Benevolent Billionaire,” featuring standout vocalist Jarreau Williams along with many of Washington, DC's brightest musical talent, is loosely based on ‘80s supergroup charity singles like “Do They Know It's Christmas?” and “We are the World.”  The song begins with Jarreau singing, “Tired of being broke, ‘cause of all of these rich people,” which is a thesis that applies to the entire record. “Love The Sinner” was written while Annie was working as a deputy sheriff and was inspired by two narrow-minded coworkers she didn't get along with.  “One of our favorite details in the song occurs when we describe the colleague as having a ‘trash bag full of farts' for a soul,” says Annie.  “Fun fact, you'll hear a quick whooshing sound on the track of our drummer Ben Tufts whipping open a trash bag.” It's one of two songs on the album that is based on true events, the other being “Hey There Girl,” a rapid fire duet skewering predatory MLM, boss babe, get-rich-quick-on-the-internet culture.   These songs would never have existed if it weren't for the mind-melding of the opposites attract duo.  Annie, from Arlington, VA is a Mormon and former sheriff's deputy while Louisa, from Alexandria, VA (now lives in Reston VA), is a long-time lapsed Catholic and a career tech employee.  That dichotomy in perspectives has been the key to the duo's success both in songwriting and in their friendship.  They met at a DC-based variety show in 2015 and were the only musicians in a group of comedians performing that night. “Louisa played a song called ‘Barista Boyfriend,' about a barista she had a crush on, and I played a song called ‘Hot Park Ranger' about a park ranger I had a crush on,” says Annie.  “We both realized we liked hot people with jobs!”  They felt an immediate kinship.  After continually running into each other in the singer-songwriter scene in DC and admiring each other's work, they joked backstage at the 9:30 Club in 2018 about how they should form a band together. They scheduled their first rehearsal in 2019, and wrote a song about vaccines and egg rolls, and the rest is (recent) history.   Now, with Late Stage Capitalism, Griefcat has all the potential to be more than just a musical act.  With each live show, they invite their audience to step inside their world, creating a fun and exciting atmosphere that becomes a universally shared experience.  “We want to take away some of the seriousness of the day and help people remember that though life may be chaotic and nonsensical, it's still good. Life is hard and it's okay to laugh at it together,” says Annie.   But the greatest messages they receive are from fans who say their music provides a cathartic experience.  Says Louisa, “We've had folks reach out who couldn't get out of bed due to grief, and they've found us, and it brought them enough joy to get out of bed that day.”  Ultimately they want people to enjoy the music, not just because it's funny, but because it's good – they want fans to feel it in their souls, to love the lyrics, and to have fun singing along.  People often tell them after a Griefcat show that they haven't laughed that hard in a long time, and that's a compliment that inspires Griefcat to keep making music every day.      Stay Connected: Website: https://www.griefcat.com/ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/griefcatpartytime TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@griefcat Music videos: Cryptobro: https://youtu.be/zOrEZ0I_B2c?si=QP3URS2OXbCbAw-1 I Just Want to Get Inside (Your Bank Account): https://youtu.be/J-fyM3Bylgw?si=VaURz5pzZKQAYm9D Revolution (Poop at Work): https://youtu.be/mN6GXjZ1odg?si=fD7UPXb-c1cD9AqzS     Katie Chonacas  Buy Art: https://www.chonacas.com/links/ Website: https://www.chonacas.com/ X: https://twitter.com/katiechonacas IG: https://www.instagram.com/chonacas/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katiechonacas/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/KyriakiChonacas Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chonacas Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2iTpKMr57KoIqdp92xLQb7?si=5Hi9uIcnSxe05XrpNtDL8w Youtube: https://bit.ly/youtube-KatieChonacas IMDB: https://imdb.to/3b2OQG3   Please leave a 5 star and a review!  Thank you so much for tuning in :)

Drawing audience members in with his deadpan self-deprecation and ability to pile punchline upon punchline his decidedly low-key stage persona belies a deeply intelligent often biting occasionally absurdist worldview one lauded by discerning fans who seek a fresh yet honest update to traditional observation and social commentary. Boasting multiple stand-up appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman Late Night with Conan O'Brien Jimmy Kimmel Live! and two Comedy Central Presents specials and his latest one hour Comedy Central special Super Crazy. Todd's resume also includes such hit TV shows as Louie Delocated Bored to Death Tim and Eric Chappelle's Show Sex and the City and even Sesame Street. Among his additional feature-film highlights are Todd Phillips's Road Trip Louis CK's Pootie Tang and Mitch Hedberg's Los Enchiladas. You can see him soon at Sigourney Weaver's right hand man in Amy Heckerling's Vamps and as Paul Rudd's co-worker in David Wain's Wanderlust. Internationally he has performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe the Melbourne International Comedy Festival Montreal's Just For Laughs Festival the Vancouver International Comedy Festival and Kilkenny Ireland's Cat Laughs Festival. Todd has been heard on both The Howard Stern Show and The Bob & Tom Show and his albums Medium Energy Falling Off the Bone and From Heaven are available from Comedy Central Records Amazon and iTunes. He has earned the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival's Jury Award praise from Ricky Gervais as one of the best comedians of 2009 and accolades from The Onion's A.V. Club which declared Medium Energy one of the best comedy albums of the decade. Todd was the subject of a recent New York Times Arts section cover story which referred to him as a “master of standup” and noted “when it comes to live performance few comics are more consistently funny.” In April 2013 the Todd Barry Podcast debuted. It reached #1 on the iT “Comedy savants revere this Conan and Letterman veteran's hushed singsong sarcasm.” – Entertainment Weekly “Piercing blinding slaying violating wit.” – NPR “Infuses his observational comedy with a wonderfully individual disdain.” – The Times of London “He doesn't suffer fools and fortunately for his comedy his definition of ‘fool' doesn't discriminate.” – Pitchfork.com “Acerbic wit deadpan delivery and wickedly smart punchlines.” – Time Out New York “Barry is so beautifully arid he is positively parched.” – London Evening Standard “The success lies with the delivery and in his ability to seamlessly merge ad-libbed material with his prepared schtick.” – The Age Melbourne Pete on YouTube Check out all things Jon Carroll Follow and Support Pete Coe Pete on Twitter Pete On Instagram Pete Personal FB page Stand Up with Pete FB page
