It's a Polka Party—literally and figuratively! This week, Lauren and Russ take on the high-energy polka medley “Polka Party” from Weird Al's Polka Party! album. And they're not alone—Polka Bob is back to lend his accordion-fueled wisdom and enthusiasm!We break down the song-by-song madness, marvel at the medley magic, and ask the big questions: Where does this rank among Al's polkas? What deep cuts make the biggest splash? And why does “Ear Booker Polka” get all the glory?Put on your party hat (and maybe some polka dots) and join us for a beer, a laugh, and a whole lot of squeezebox.Beer'd Al is a polka-riffic member of the OddPods Media Network.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beer-d-al-podcast--5439475/support.
It's one of those days… but in the best way possible! Lauren is joined by the delightfully nerdy and wonderfully weird Jeff Nucera (aka UHJeff) to talk all about the song “One of Those Days” from Polka Party! You might know Jeff as one of the filmmakers behind Tight & Nerdy—the fabulous documentary about the world's first Weird Al-themed burlesque troupe. (Yes, that's a real thing, and yes, it's amazing.)We dive into this underrated Al deep cut and revel in its over-the-top absurdity, dark humor, and surprising relatability.Oh—and we discover a truly wild coincidence about each other that will have you saying, “What are the odds?!”So crack open a cold one, embrace the chaos, and settle in for a joyfully weird ride. Because even on one of those days, Beer'd Al makes everything better.
We're starch-raving mad this week! Lauren and Russ are joined by the spudtacular Ian Glaubinger, Art Director at RSVLTS, to break down the third track on Polka Party—Weird Al's ode to tuber obsession: “Addicted to Spuds.” From mashed metaphors to fried philosophies, this episode peels back the layers on one of Al's most underrated food parodies. Get ready for laughs, carbs, and a whole lot of potato talk. Don't flake out—tune in!
The Beer'd Al Podcast is back with the second installment of our Polka Party album series, and this week we're diving headfirst into the caffeinated chaos of “Dog Eat Dog”! Lauren and Russ are joined by none other than Jim Elek, the fearless and fabulous admin of the Close Personal Friends of Weird Al Facebook group.Together, we unpack the deliciously bizarre brilliance of this Talking Heads-inspired track, discuss corporate life in the ‘80s (and beyond), and ponder the eternal question: How much coffee is too much coffee? There are laughs, deep cuts, and of course, beers. Come for the “Dog Eat Dog” discourse, stay for the delightful detours.Grab your mug, fire up the copy machine, and let's get weird!Beer'd Al is a doggone member of the OddPods Media Network.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beer-d-al-podcast--5439475/support.

"Rock'n'Roll & Punk & Ska are really just Polka!" Verkünden Polkaholix – und es scheint was dran zu sein, immerhin ist die Berliner Rasselbande seit über zwei Jahrzehnten im Zeichen des Zweivierteltakts unterwegs und erfreut sich großer Beliebtheit. Davon kündet nicht nur das von Bandmitbegründer und Akkordeonist Jo Meyer initiierte PolkaBEATSFestival, das nach 15 erfolgreichen Jahren voller Highlights 2024 in Cottbus leider zum letzten Mal stattfinden wird. Auf Tourneen durch u.a. Polen, Portugal, die Färöer oder Italien kann das Septett zudem genauso zurückblicken, wie einen "Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik" für ihr 2007er Album "The Great Polka Swindle" stolz sein eigen nennen. Und anders als beim Festival scheint für Polkaholix die Reise noch lange nicht zu Ende, führt sie im Gegenteil diesmal an einen besonders spannenden Ort: Just heute erscheint nämlich ihr neues Album mit dem schönen Titel "Selfies aus Absurdistan", das sie am Sonntag auch mit einem zünftigen Release-Event feiern werden. In der Freiheit 15 in Köpenick erwartet Polka-Aficionados ab 16 Uhr die "PHX-Lounge draußen mit Überraschungen", ehe ab 17 Uhr die Türen zum Konzertraum geöffnet werden, wo ab 18 Uhr das "eigentliche" Konzert beginnt. Zur Einstimmung schauen Polkaholix heute im studioeins vorbei und werden neben einem Interview anschließend mit ihren Instrumenten auf der kleinen Bühne auch an ihren legendären Besuch bei radioeins vor einigen Jahren im (noch kleineren Studio im) Admiralspalast anknüpfen und zeigen, dass weder räumliche noch Lautstärkenbeschränkungen einer fetzigen Polka-Party im Wege stehen können.

We FINALLY made it through med school. Somehow we made it through. Actually, we didn't. We're just talking about two versions of "Like a Surgeon." Our conversation today revolves around both the 1985 original (well, parody) and the 2022 re-record for Weird. This is John's last episode before he takes a little bit of time to become a dad again! He's done it before, he'll do it again. This time, it's a boy! (Yep, Lauren's gonna be an uncle!)Fear not, dear friends.

It's time for a real Polka Party! That's right - we open our second season with the first episode of our SIMPLY THE FEST Marathon covering the one and only WEIRD AL YANKOVIC! Al has been an inspiration to many in the music and comedy worlds, but I think he's been the most inspiring to today's guests - PANGOLIN members Kenneth Leeming Jr. and Gary Pounds! Join us as we discuss the career of one of the greatest to ever do it, how Al's music career is really a front to get his architecture business rolling, and how Pangolin currently has music in the Weird Al Archives (true story). Welcome to our season opener, and prepare yourself for a slew of more as we marathon episodes and host strictly bands that are playing this year's THE FEST FL this October!

You know who's on this show almost as often as John? It's the preeminent "Weird Al" scholar Nathan Rabin, of course! (I'm kind of kidding... John is here a BIT more than Nathan Rabin. But I'm not the one that does the math.) Nathan is here to discuss what we feel are the most underrated tracks on the Polka Party! album. Heck, the whole thing is underrated... but we had to narrow it down somehow! Listen in as we get pretty deep into the genius of "Weird Al" and how some of his work is even better than you might think.Nathan Rabin does a lot of cool stuff! You can find most of it on his website. He's written books about "Weird Al"! He's written books about some of the crappiest pop culture imaginable! He's got a freakin' podcast about Nic Cage and John Travolta. He's doing the good work for you people, goshdarnit. Want to do some good work for us?

We've discussed how the Polka Party album is a collection of highs and lows; unfortunately this week we are discussing a pretty big low. Reportedly Al felt obligated to do this parody after already getting permission from Mick Jagger and the whole song feels like a procrastinated homework assignment. Learn more about your ad choices.

While the biggest strike against Polka Party is that Al did not parody many songs that would leave it's mark on pop culture; Robert Palmer's Addicted to Love was the one exception. So does Al's send up to Potato obsession "Addicted to Spuds" do the song justice? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
We are officially diving into Polka Party, the first album to almost kill Al's career. We are joined by returning guest Jim Logrando to dive into how this song gave us an extensive knowledge of hernias and if Al was forced to make this parody by the Scotti Brothers.

Alfred Matthew Yankovic, Born October 23, 1959, in Downey, California, the only child of Mary Elizabeth (née Vivalda) and Nick Yankovic. Weird Al rose to international, NO, Intergalactic stardom with his weird brand of pop/rock music. And we LOVE him for it. Hot on the heels of the release of "WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story" on Roku, I'm sitting down with a guest who has seen Weird Al 29 times! AND wrote a book about him. I've invited the author of “Weird Me”, the book that follows a moderately successful webmaster of a "Weird Al" Yankovic fan site. From minor notoriety to jet-setting for concerts, to earning a stalker, Weird Me showcases the awkward (and true) intricacies of an adolescence spent carving out a corner of the internet frontier in dedication to the king of parody. Of course, I'm talking about Kelly Phillips. Kelly is here today to discuss our Five Favorite Weird All Songs, both Parodies and Originals. I guarantee, this episode will be Weird!

On this episode, Weird Al has finally made a monkey out of us. Our latest batch of reconstructed mid-'80s pop hits includes lots of drum machines, two covers of '60s classics (to varying degrees of success), a cameo from Danny Aiello's brief and inexplicable recording career, and an ode to Mozart for people who hate every ape they see, from chimpan-A to chimpanzee.Songs:The Rolling Stones - Harlem ShuffleBananarama - VenusJanet Jackson - NastyFalco - Rock Me AmadeusTears for Fears - ShoutMadonna - Papa Don't PreachCo-hosts: Rich Bunnell, John McFerrin, Libby CudmoreLinks:"Harlem Shuffle" music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAkMTu6q2pY"Dr. Zaius" (from The Simpsons): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlmzUEQxOvADanny Aiello's "Papa Wants the Best for You": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xg11hwVs-MWeird Al "interviews" Madonna in 1985: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twunYSrARk0Get early access to bonus episodes on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/discordpodOther clips:Bob & Earl - Harlem Shuffle"Weird Al" Yankovic - (This Song's Just) Six Words Long"Weird Al" Yankovic - I Think I'm a Clone Now"Weird Al" Yankovic - AlimonyBananarama - Aie a MwanaShocking Blue - VenusDead or Alive - You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You UpKylie Minogue - I Should Be So LuckyMorris Minor & the Majors - This Is the ChorusMinistry - Everyday Is HalloweenBananarama - Cruel SummerBananarama - Robert De Niro's Waiting ...Genesis - Land of ConfusionJanet Jackson - Fast GirlsFalco - Der KommissarFalco - It's All Over Now, Baby BlueTears for Fears - Mad WorldTears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the WorldXTC - This World OverTears for Fears - The Tipping PointMadonna - EverybodyDanny Aiello - Papa Wants the Best for YouKelly Osbourne - Papa Don't Preach"Weird Al" Yankovic - Like a Surgeon
Emboldened by the success of "Eat It" and "Like a Surgeon," Weird Al titled his fourth album Polka Party!, and the 1986 record-buying public shunned what they assumed was a full album of accordion music. It wasn't, but the title track was the latest of Al's reliable polka medleys rounding up the chart music of the day. This time around we've got #1 hits by two members of Genesis, the Queen of Soul's voice doing battle with mushy '80s production, and an inconsistent but underrated Australian band that Ben and Rich have bonded over for decades.Tracks:Peter Gabriel - SledgehammerPhil Collins - SussudioEddie Murphy - Party All the TimeLionel Richie - Say You, Say MeAretha Franklin - Freeway of LoveINXS - What You NeedCo-hosts: Rich Bunnell, Ben Marlin, Amanda RodgersLinks: "Sledgehammer" music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJWJE0x7T4Q"Urban Renewal," the hip-hop/R&B Phil Collins tribute album: https://www.discogs.com/release/1925875-Various-Urban-Renewal100+ pink Cadillacs at Aretha Franklin's funeral procession: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLTOnOUcLbUGet early access to bonus episodes on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/discordpodOther clips: "Weird Al" Yankovic - Living with a HerniaOtis Redding - Change Gonna ComeBo Carter - Please Warm My Wiener"Weird Al" Yankovic - Waffle King"Weird Al" Yankovic - Talk SoupPrince - 1999Genesis - MisunderstandingOl' Dirty Bastard - SussudioBrandy - Another Day in ParadiseKelis - I Don't Care AnymoreEddie Murphy - Put Your Mouth on MeSisqo - Thong SongJoe Pesci - Wise GuyEddie Murphy - My God Is Color BlindLionel Richie - You ArePhil Collins and Marilyn Martin - Separate LivesAretha Franklin & Eurythmics - Sisters Are Doin' It for ThemselvesLisa Simpson, Ann Wilson & Nancy Wilson - Sisters Are Doin' It for ThemselvesINXS - Need You TonightINXS - Don't ChangeINXS - Heaven SentEddie Murphy - Boogie in Your Butt

On today’s show we’re talking to Charlie from Themselves Press, we’ll be telling you all about the weird history of police mug shots, there’s a couple of book reviews and a bit of a listener memorial to Aloy Anderson. Full Show Notes & Photos here: https://allthroughalens.com/ CHARLIE CHUX CANDACE CAMUGLIA: THEMSELVES PRESS Last episode we interviewed Denise Grays (@deniseg316), who had just published a zine through Themselves Press. That zine distro and press is run by charlie chux candace camuglia (@casualscience) of Themselves Press (@themselvespress). Since they’re into film photography, zines, art and cats, it just seems natural that we’d give them a call. Here are some of their photos: This is Charlie’s site: https://www.casual-science.com/hello And don’t forget to visit themselvespress.com THE HISTORY OF MUG SHOTS It would be tempting to say that before the invention of photography, there was some sort of rudimentary form of mugshots. We might even want to claim that Wanted Posters from the Wild West and runaway slave notices were proto-mugshots. But they weren’t. Both existed before photography. Wanted posters eventually used photography, while runaway slave notices never used it at all (enslaved people were generally not photographed). In truth, mugshots grew out of the portrait industry. Both were, essentially, identical: front-facing, no expression, and photographed from the shoulders up. The stereotypical side-facing mugshot came later, and we’ll get to that. We delve into Rogues’ Galleries, Alexander Gardner, Thomas Byrnes, Cesara Lombroso, Francis Galton, Alphonse Bertillon – the usual suspects. Vania and Eric also talked about their favorite celebrity mug shots: Here are some we mentioned: We also mentioned Underworld: Mug Shots from the Roaring Twenties. ALOY ANDERSON We asked our followers on Instagram to leave us voices message memorials to Aloy Anderson, who passed away last month. His YouTube channel is here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKbs6hVUJsDxCVpZeZPurOg His Instagram is here: https://www.instagram.com/aloyandersonphotography/ His memorial service is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKa_AeQ_MMQ REVIEW: BLACK & WHITE & WEIRD ALL OVER Review of Black & White & Weird All Over by Jon “Bermuda” Schawartz. “Bermuda” Swartz has been Weird Al Yankovic’s drummer since they met on the Dr. Demento Show in September 1980. And while he’s known mostly for that, he was also a photographer. He picked up a Minolta SRT-101 in the early 70s, and was rolling his own rolls and printing in a home darkroom not long after. He quickly discovered that he simply documented everything. When it became more economical to shoot color, he switched over. But in 1983, as Weird Al was shooting the video for “Ricky” (a Desi & Lucy-based parody of Toni Basil’s “Hey Mickey”), he thought that black & white might just be the better choice to capture the shoot. He was not wrong. The book, a 200 page hardback, is made up of a couple hundred photos from 1983 to 1986, covering Al’s first album through his fourth, Polka Party.

A chat with Matt and Ryan of Cruthu as well as fans Korey, Brandon, Daniel, Paul, Matt, Erik, and Matt. We started out with the fans who span the globe to discover how they found Cruthu. We learn the origin behind the name of the band as well as their latest album Athrú Crutha and how to pronounce it. We explore the craftsmanship behind Cruthu’s music. Finally, we explore what everyone is listening to these days and the mysteries of pineapple.How The Fans Discovered CruthuWe kicked off this episode by asking the fans how they discovered Cruthu. Paul saw them at PJ’s Lager House where they opened for Spirit Adrift. He was glad he got there early as he loved the doom metal Sabbath vibe. Matt C has known Ryan (vocals for Cruthu) since high school and has known Ryan’s wife Misty (who joined the call with Ryan) since 7th grade. Regardless of timeline, Matt was enthralled after the first listen of Cruthu comparing the experience to his first listen to Metallica’s Master Of Puppets.Erik heard the rough demos of the first Cruthu album (The Angle of Eternity) and was blown away. The experience still resonates with him today. Matt C added that he enjoys the storytelling aspect of Cruthu’s music. It is as if he is sitting around a campfire and hearing the story told.Brandon discovered Cruthu at FuzzFest in Ann Arbor at the legendary Blind Pig. While all the bands were great, Cruthu’s doomy vibe captured his attention. He has been following the band ever since. Matt H has been a friend of Matt F (drummer for Cruthu) for some time. He felt he couldn’t really top the descriptions by Matt C or Erik, but agrees that the music of Cruthu speaks for itself.Daniel called in from Chile. A friend of his asked him if he had heard of Cruthu as he knew that Daniel loved doom metal bands. It was love at first listen for Daniel. For him, the music is powerful doom with great blues roots. Daniel particularly enjoys the vocal phrasing and melodies. He thought it was fantastic that Cruthu released their latest album (Athrú Crutha) during the pandemic.Athrú Crutha and Song WritingRyan kindly guided me through the pronunciation of the title of the latest Cruthu album called Athrú Crutha. Like the band’s name, the album title is gaelic and means “to transform into” in a supernatural form. This dovetails nicely with the first track as well as the overall theme of the album. By the way, Cruthu roughly means creation or to create.We talked a bit about the evolution of the music of Cruthu. From the initial demos with Matt and Dan (guitar) through the addition of Ryan on vocals and Derek on bass. While their first album The Angle of Eternity is great, you can clearly hear a more cohesive sound on the new album.We explored the songwriting process of Cruthu. This typically involves riffs from Dan that are shaped by the rest of the band into the final version of the songs. The lyrical content is developed after the music is created. In some cases, Ryan has existing lyrics that fit perfectly with a melody. In other cases, inspiration comes in an avalanche. This is how the lyrics to “Crown of Horns” were born.Paul was curious if Athrú Crutha is a concept album. Ryan explained that it isn’t a concept album in the true sense. However, it is thematic where story ideas within songs can extend into the others. Recording the AlbumErik wanted to know where the latest Cruthu album had been recorded. Ryan indicated that it was recorded at Dan’s home in Lansing. The house is an older home with lots of natural wood that provides for a dynamic sound environment.The recording engineer is George Szegedy who worked with Cruthu on the first album. George has also worked on the recordings of Ryan and his wife Misty’s other band Seritas. They recorded on tape to capture the continuous waveform of their music via analog signal.Taking Cruthu on the RoadDaniel posed the question of taking Cruthu on the road. Not just to North America, but whether the band would consider some of the bigger doom festivals in Europe such as Hammer Of Doom Festival or Doom Over Vienna. Cruthu had been working on plans to play Hammer Of Doom, however all plans are currently on hold given the pandemic.In addition, Daniel was interested in what Cruthu thinks of doom metal in South America. Ryan feels the doom scene in Latin America is very strong. Daniel mentioned it would be cool to have Cruthu play some shows with King Heavy and Apostle of Solitude. Let’s hope that in the near future we can see this happen.More on TouringSomething we learned while talking is that the members of Cruthu are spread out across the Lower Peninsula of Michigan from Petoskey (up in the northern lower) to Lansing, Saginaw, and Grand Rapids. To some extent this has limited the band to doing just a few small strings of shows. Matt F mentioned that Cruthu really hasn’t gotten into the van to do any true turing. Ryan added that they haven’t yet done a Black Flag run which brought many laughs.Paul continued that he didn’t really see Cruthu as a van band. He felt they should really be using a stagecoach or carriage for that old world Transylvania feel. Matt C quipped that they would have to keep the Stonehenge monuments to a minimum.Cosmic HorrorAs we talked more about songwriting, Ryan relayed that in the band Seritas the lyrics are personal. With Cruthu, the lyrics are complete fiction. Matt F added that their first singer had written more personal lyrics and he always felt that the H.P. Lovecraft themes of cosmic horror would be a great direction to take. When Ryan joined the band, he jumped on this notion.New Music and First AlbumsWhile talking about how we all have found music to be our savior while we deal with the pandemic, the topics of what everyone is listening to and their first album popped up. Matt C has been enjoying the new Mr. Bungle album.Matt F has been listening to Ryan’s new side project (Ubuntu). His first album was Eye of the Tiger by Survivor. Misty added her first album was Freeze Frame by J Geils. Matt C’s first album was Weird Al’s Polka Party. Paul’s first tape was Europe’s The Final Countdown. Korey has been listening to the new Pallbearer. His first album was actually the entire collection of Led Zeppelin that he snagged from his cousin. The Go Go’s Beauty and the Beat was Erik’s first album. Brandon started out with System of a Down Steal This Album. However, lately he is fascinated with Bill Fisher’s solo album called Mass Hypnosis and the Dark Triad. Matt H is really missing live shows and remembers the Offspring as his first album.Side Projects - Ubuntu and BudahasAs we talked about new music and what everyone is listening to, Matt F mentioned that he, Erik and Matt H had been in a band called Budahas. After several years, they will be releasing their album Explore via bandcamp. As mentioned earlier, Ryan has a side project of eclectic ambient music called Ubuntu who recently released their album called Jupiter.Pineapple Anyone?A classic wrap-up on Fans With Bands is the great debate of pineapple or no pineapple on pizza. Matt C is firmly on the no F pizza: No Fruit, No Feta, No Fish, and No Fungus. Matt F is not a fan of pineapple. Ryan and Misty are more traditionalists with pizza, however they did experiment with pineapple and it wasn’t too bad. Paul went to Michigan State and during his years of experimentation at school he dabbled with pineapple. Now that he has kids, he has left pineapple behind. Erik is straight up no pizza. Instead he’ll go for tacos and throw on pineapple just for fun. Brandon doesn’t really like pineapple, but he loves pizza enough to suffer the pineapple if that is all that is available. Korey is one of the few pineapple fans on this episode as Matt H gives pineapple the down vote. Dig into the stories, laughs, and much more in this episode of Fans With Bands with Cruthu.

(Use the player at the bottom of the page to hear the podcast) There are many creative ways to raise money for lighthouse preservation, and the two interview subjects in this episode of Light Hearted have found one of the most creative. Alison Richardson, a summer resident of Isle au Haut in Maine, and Molly Siegel, an Island Institute fellow on the island, decided to do something special to help raise funds for the island's lighthouse – they swam all the way around the island in the summer of 2019. The island is 18 miles around, and they raised more than $33,000. Molly Siegel and Alison Richardson at Isle Au Haut Lighthouse GoFundMe page for Isle Au Haut Lighthouse Friends of the Isle Au Haut Lighthouse Gary Sredzienski Gary Sredzienski, in addition to being an amazing swimmer, is an accomplished musician and composer who has been playing the piano accordion for more than 40 years. Always an avid swimmer, Gary started experimenting with special gear so that he could swim in winter. In January 2008 he swam about six miles to the island group known as the Isles of Shoals, raising $17,000 for the Krempels Brain Injury Foundation and Stepping Stones of Portsmouth. Since then, he has completed several more winter swims for various charities, raising more than $80,000, including three swims to raise funds for lighthouse preservation. His first swim for lighthouses was in February 2011, and it raised about $10,000 for Whaleback Lighthouse in Kittery, Maine. The air temperature was about 27F, and the water was about 38F.

Controversial opinions abound as Dakota and Gerrit attempt to rectify the problems surrounding Dare to Be Stupid and Polka Party. How can they stand to take such a stand!? Also, Dakota makes a last ditch effort to defend Girls Just Wanna Have Lunch. This one is a thinker.
Well, the party is coming to an end, but the fun is raging on. Dakota and Gerrit get; appropriately, Christmas-y in this episode. We also discuss just how often Weird Al uses movie songs for his albums. It’s a lot!

Our first polka! How do you rate a polka? What do you even talk about? We don’t know. Maybe you do.

Time for a rather crazy episode of Pony 411! This week we have a lot of news, including yet more con news, a ton of merchandise stuff, and some other things as well. Oh, and apparently Alca7raz is trying to cough up a lung. Well, after that, they talk about "Pinkie Pride." Which was insane!
