Like a werewolf helplessly transforming into its beastial form, our podcast once again becomes all Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer, all August long! Come howl along with us as we listen to two tales of revenge. "Grandpa Got Revenge On a Reindeer" by Luke McKinney gets a lot of respect, even if it's moreso for the things it's not rather than the thing it is. Then "Grandpa Run Over the Reindeer" by Christmas Workshop Band offers a more opaque vision of the GGROBAR universe. The ranking music this episode is, of course, "Everything Sucks" by Reel Big Fish.

In October of 1998, Reel Big Fish released their third full-length album Why Do They Rock So Hard?, which captured the band at a time of peak musical exploration. One of the standout tracks from the album was “The Set Up (You Need This)”, and although the song didn't necessarily fit into the mold of classic ska-punk, the catchiness and signature style of the band was undeniable. From the energetic intro (featuring the first riff that Aaron ever wrote on guitar) to the falsetto hooks of the chorus, the song is a monster that still resonates and sounds amazing today. In this episode, Aaron and Scott share the story behind the writing and recording of this fan-favorite single.

You want a political Reel Big Fish song? Here it is in all its vague glory! And speak of glory, we have the glorious Kevin Gunther and Jeff Davidson from Catch 22 joining us to talk about this song, but also about Keasbey Nights, Alone In The Crowd, and more Catch 22! Oh did I forget to mention the song? It's "Will The Revolution Come?" from the 2007 album Monkeys For Nothin' and the Chimps for Free.

We catch up with Jeff Davidson and Kevin Gunther from Catch 22 as we talk about one of the more unique Reel Big Fish songs "Big Star" from the 1998 album Why Do They Rock So Hard?

Big show this week! We have Aaron Barrett and Scott Klopfenstein of Reel Big Fish to confront us about our woeful treatment of their music And to talk to us about the song "Sell Out" from the 1996 album Turn the Radio Off!

What a way to do our first song after hitting the century mark! We brought on Jess and Andrew from Flying Raccoon Suit to discuss our first song FEATURING Reel Big Fish. So this week we're talking about "Don't You Want Me" from the 2007 album Duet All Night Long, which is a Zolof the Rock & Roll Destroyer aerating RBF.

Sure, we covered the song but now we get to talk about an entire album! Adam the Ska Mailman joins us to talk about the 1995 Reel Big Fish debut album Everything Sucks.

Reel Big Fish takes on Duran Duran with this lounge meets ska classic as we cover "Hungry Like The Wolf" from the Duran Duran Tribute Album.

I would really love to party with Reel Big Fish, but these lyrics give me some pause. We've got dingoes eating babies and cake baking? What is this song even about?! We talk all these things and more with All The Way Jay (Jason) from the b Sharps and The Maxies as we discuss the track "Party Down" from the 2007 album Monkeys for Nothin' and the Chimps for Free.

Reel Big Fish covers a lot of songs, but is this one of the good ones? There is some disagreements amongst the hosts as well as our guest, Jason Hatfield, from such illustrious bands such as The b Sharps and The Maxies. Which song am I referring to? The RBF cover of "We Close Our Eyes" originally played by Oingo Boingo and appearing on the "Dead Band's Party" Oingo Boingo tribute album.

Another Reel Big Fish Poison cover? Yeah, why not? Reel Big Fish turns "Talk Dirty to Me" into a duet and the results are oh so good as we talk about their cover from the 2009 album Fame, Fortune, and Fornication.

We dig deep in to the depths to mine this Disney cover from The Reel Big Fish! This is one that many of you may have never heard, but the RBF cover of "The Main Street Electrical Parade" is from the 2002 compilation Dive Into Disney and it's truly one of a kind.

Well, folks, we made it to the end of the war. And, frankly, we're kinda glad it's over. It's not great. We're not even sure it's good. As always, though, we find the bits we did like, try to make sense of the parts we didn't, and (if nothing else) celebrate the fact that we're getting back to some actual Doctor Who for our next episode!

We were the dateless losers, but were Reel Big Fish dateless losers? This week we ask former Reel Big Fish trombone player Dan Regan if the RBF guys were, in fact, dateless losers and many more questions as we talk about the song "Dateless Losers" from the 2002 album Cheer Up!

Sometimes relationships end. Sometimes it's your fault, sometimes it's not. And sometimes all you get for your troubles is a burning hot hatred. Danny Ricker (Author/Head Writer for Jimmy Kimmel Live) joins us to talk about his love of ska, Reel Big Fish, and his opinions on "P.S. I Hate You" from the 2012 album Candy Coated Fury.

Reel Big Fish's "The Fire" from the album Cheer Up! is a protest song? That's what Mike Damante (Hey Suburbia, Hey Ska-burbia, Punk Rock and UFOs) posits as hey joins us to talk about the song!

Must be love, what else could it be? Reel Big Fish you love me, I'm not crazy! This week we discuss the controversial(?) song "Skatanic" from the 1996 album Turn the Radio Off.

It's not me, it's you. You're the problem. It couldn't be me because you're the asshole and you're the reason I'm not having any fun. But here's the good news: Jesse Wilder (The Scholars/Goodwin Club/Blu Aux) is here to give his insights and share some old school Reel Big Fish stories with us as we discuss "Everyone Else Is An Asshole" from the 2012 album Candy Coated Fury.

A Reel Big Fish cover, but this time it's slower than the original. This week Danny Smyth (Abortion Twins, Over Wait Mammal) joins Gary, Matt, and Anthony as we discuss the Social Distortion song "Story of My Life" as covered by Reel Big Fish on the 2005 album We're Not Happy Until You're Not Happy.

We all have expectations of ourselves and sometimes we have expectations for others lives as well, but what we really hate is when others have expectations for our lives. I don't want to live your dream, dude--back off! And speaking of dreams; Gary, Matt, and Anthony discuss "Live Your Dream" by Reel Big Fish from the album Monkeys for Nothin' and the Chimps for Free.

Nah, just kidding, we're not starting another annual month-long theme. Can you imagine? I mean, sure, yes, we can imagine. But we've apparently run out of ska-punk Hanukkah songs already. Until someone proves us wrong on that (email requests to harkpodcast at gmail!!), we're making do with some ska/punk winter holiday songs that felt appropriate for the approaching Rosh Hashanah. We start off with a listener request for a song of pan-holiday celebration, "Whatever U Celebrate" by Reel Big Fish. Paired with that is a singular tune that somehow both barely qualifies for the list and also fits perfectly: "Hava Nagila (Christmas Arrangment)" by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. The ranking music in this episode is "Sell Out" by Reel Big Fish. Thank you to Jo for requesting "Whatever U Celebrate"!

Ska fans rejoice! We attended a screening of "Pick It Up: Ska in the 90's" to host a Q&A with Scott Klopfenstein! Yes, the dude from Reel Big Fish and the Littlest Man Band! It gets better! We also had Coolie Ranx from the Pilfers join the Q&A! And we RECORDED that Q&A for you!!!!!! Wow! After I tell Chuck a brief story about a scam I recently pulled (and "scam" may be stretching it), we tell the whole story of how we got involved with the movie/Q&A/show. We talk about our trip to and from Brooklyn and also discuss road trip etiquette! Super fun talk and that's just LEADING UP to the Q&A!!!!!!- Brad

Buckle up everyone, it's the final AGROBAR episode of 2025, and the guy that they put at the wheel for this one most definitely does not have a license. That's right, we're doing two Jesus-adjacent versions of GGROBAR! "Grandma Got Won Over by a Stranger" by ApologetiX might give you whiplash with its mix of goofy parody-of-a-parody sound and its needlessly dark subject matter. And listen all y'all, it's not sabotage, and it's not even that bad: it's just "Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer" as performed by Family Force 5. The ranking music in this episode, and all August Got Run Over By a Reindeer (AGROBAR) episodes, is “Everything Sucks” by Reel Big Fish.

Someday these will be the good old days. You may not know it know, but it's all downhill from here. Every second you're alive is one second closer you are to death, right? Too grim? Well don't worry, this episode is a lighthearted romp featuring Derek Gibbs (Reel Big Fish) as he joins Gary, Matt, and Anthony to talk about the Reel Big Fish cover of The Forces of Evil song "The Good Old Days" from the 2018 album Life Sucks... Let's Dance.

Unforunately, our annual tradition is back! We once again listened to two "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"-related songs, this time exploring Dr. Elmo's own sequels, "Grandma's Spending Christmas With the Superstars" and "Grandpa's Going to Sue the Pants Off of Santa". We notice some issues, and pitch a ton of punch-ups. You're welcome! I feel compelled to include a content note that we talk about (an actual, historical) suicide during the discussion of the first song, from ~17:00-21:40. The ranking music in this episode, and all August Got Run Over By a Reindeer (AGROBAR) episodes, is “Everything Sucks” by Reel Big Fish.

Toxics relationships in practice: not fun. Toxic relationships as told by a Reel Big Fish song: fun. This week we're joined by Reel Big Fish bassist Derek and guest vocalist Julie to talk about the song "I Know You To Well To Like You Anymore" from the 2012 album Candy Coated Fury.

In hockey it is a Detroit tradition to throw a dead octopus onto the ice, but what does it mean when a sex toy is thrown onto the court of a WNBA game? Bobby need to by his wife a romantic gift. Jay walks him through a scenario where Bob can present her a vibrator. The Kelly's will be in the wilderness of New Hampshire, so the toy should have a duel function like a flashlight or fishing rod. Christine is an expert on the subject although she once exploded a pocket rocket while romping around with Jay. | Big Jay hates Sublime but likes some ska music and rewrites a Reel Big Fish song to impress Bob. *To hear the full show to go www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!

Coolie Ranx! He features on a few Reel Big Fish songs, but there's one song in particular--Song #3 where Coolie takes the lead and who better to speak on the song than the man himself? Coolie joins Gary, Matt, and Anthony to talk about how his involvement in Song #3 from the 1998 album Why Do They Rock So Hard? came about as we analyze the song together.

In this Throwback Thursday episode—originally released as Episode 162 on July 3rd, 2023—Chris sits down with Aaron Barrett and Scott Klopfenstein of Reel Big Fish to talk all about their 1996 hit, “Sell Out.” The song became an instant ska-punk anthem, blasting onto radio and MTV while poking fun at the music industry's obsession with, well, selling out. Aaron and Scott share the story behind writing and recording the track, what it was like suddenly finding themselves in the mainstream spotlight, and how “Sell Out” still hits home with fans decades later. It's a fun, behind-the-scenes look at a song that helped define the third wave of ska.

Music Matters host Darrell Craig Harris speaks with Monique Powell long-time lead vocalist for the popular ska/rock band “Save Ferris” from her home in Garden Grove, California! #saveferris #skaband #podcast WHERE IT ALL BEGAN Save Ferris is a ska-punk band formed in Orange County, California circa 1995. Their name is a reference to the 1986 film Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Lead by the inimitable front-woman Monique Powell, the band enjoyed mainstream success in the late 1990s with radio hits, constant touring and appearances on a variety of television shows and movies. The band released their debut EP "Introducing Save Ferris" on Powell's own Starpool Records, in 1996. They ended up selling close to 20,000 copies of their EP out of the trunks of their cars, thanks to loyal fans and huge support from Orange County independent record shops. That same year, Powell provided vocals on the Reel Big Fish song "She Has A Girlfriend Now" on their album "Turn the Radio Off" (Mojo). https://www.SaveFerris.com Social Media   / saveferrisofficialband   PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!
