Join Cary the Metal Geek, Brutal Dave, and George we dive headfirst into a wild mix of metal, movies, TV, and games! We kick things off with a review of the Weird Al concert before breaking down the first wave of Hell's Heroes 2026 band announcements. Then we geek out over the latest in pop culture, including The White Lotus Season 3, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, King of the Hill, Happy Gilmore 2, Jurassic World: Rebirth, Twisted Metal Season 2, Clown in a Cornfield, Marshmallow, Life of Chuck, and Marvel's Fantastic Four: First Steps. On the gaming side, we level up with takes on Donkey Kong: Bananza, Robocop: Rogue City – Unfinished Business, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, Hexen/Heretic Remaster, Mafia: The Old Country, Ultrakill, and a discussion about the most influential gaming console in our own lives. In our George Hates Metal segment, George faces down Shadecrown – The Art of Grieving, while we also spotlight new metal from Blackbraid III, Technologist, Nailed to Obscurity, Kirigsgrav, Crimson Shadows, Shadecrown, and Black Knight, Whether you're here for the laughs, the riffs, or the geeky deep-dives, we've got you covered. Keep it Metal, Keep it Geeky!
In this episode, we ask: Would you like to read Mark's new book, co-authored with David Barnett, The Business Fortress: How to Grow, Protect and Exit Your Business with Confidence? What are the three musicians? How are annuities like Weird Al Yankovic? What are annuities, anyways? How much income do you want a year? What...
This week, we lace up for a deep dive into one of Weird Al's most criminally underappreciated originals: “Don't Wear Those Shoes.” And joining us is none other than Zeb — yes, that Zeb. Everybody knows Zeb.We're talking petty breakups, questionable footwear, and how this little synthpop gem might just be riff-cousins with The Kinks' “Father Christmas.” (Seriously. The guitar hooks are suspiciously similar. We've got tabs. We've got takes.)Grab a beer, kick off those ugly shoes, and settle in for a conversation that's equal parts music geekery, Weird Al love, and friendly chaos. Because life's too short for bad footwear… and bad beer.Beer'd Al is still a member of the OddPods Media Network.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/beer-d-al-podcast--5439475/support.

Hi, my name is Kim and I don't like to be told what to do. (But I do love your calls!) This week on Laugh Lines, Penn and I take your voicemails and unpack everything from Gen Z stares to accidentally breeding super-intelligent squirrels to how “smash” means something very different now. (Sorry, Heather.) Penn also shares what it was like to meet one of his comedy heroes, Weird Al Yankovic, and why “I may get canceled for this…” is never a great sentence starter. Spoiler alert: Penn does it anyway… twice!We discuss wheels on your feet, Tony Hawk doppelgängers, and how Gen Z thinks Nine Inch Nails is a literal hardware situation. Penn and I also need your help naming our Laugh Lines community. (Does Laugh Liners sound too much like Flatliners?) Join us for an always chaotic and fun hang… hard pants not required.

Everyone knows Hulk Hogan's entrance music, but how many know the fascinating story behind Rick Derringer's "Real American"? With the recent passing of Hulk Hogan, we thought we'd revisit a previous episode and update it with new information. Oh, and also to film the whole dang thing as we weren't doing that back then. So, this week we're exploring the unlikely journey of a song that became one of wrestling's most iconic themes, examining its cultural impact, political appropriation, and the complex legacy of both its creator and, in some ways, Hulk Hogan too. From Rick Derringer's impressive musical pedigree (The McCoys, collaborations with Steely Dan, producing Weird Al) to the song's evolution from US Express theme to Hogan's signature tune, we unpack how a piece of 1980s excess became a cultural touchstone - and political football. We also talk about Rick Derringer's extensive musical career and connections, the origins and evolution of "Real American"; WWE's "Rock and Wrestling Connection" era in the mid to late 80s; the song's political appropriation across decades; Hulk Hogan's controversial legacy and recent passing; the music video's gloriously over-the-top 80s aesthetic and more. Let's fight for the right of every man. Or everyone, depending on the version you prefer. Episode Highlights 00:00 - Introduction and Hulk Hogan's recent cultural relevance 01:30 - Rick Derringer's impressive musical CV and career highlights 03:00 - The creation story: "The most patriotic song of all time" 05:30 - Wrestling music history and the Rock and Wrestling Connection 12:00 - How "Real American" became Hogan's theme (it wasn't originally!) 15:00 - Hulk Hogan's controversial legacy and recent scandals 18:00 - The Wrestling Album and WWE's musical ambitions 22:30 - The song's political life and cultural appropriation 28:00 - Iron Sheik's legendary Twitter feuds with Hogan 31:40 - Rick Derringer's own political evolution and re-recording 36:30 - The gloriously cheesy music video breakdown 41:00 - Why this song represents the 1980s perfectly 44:00 - Final thoughts on Hogan's impact and the song's enduring legacy

In this episode of Poducer at Sound Haven 2024, we link up with Tree Gaud and Ozztin — two close friends and rising names in the underground bass scene. From throwing down original edits on the UFO stage to geeking out about lasers at a Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert, this convo covers it all. We get into their unique approaches to performance, like Tree Gaud's “Flip God” set packed with bootlegs and bass, and Ozztin's genre-blurring style that lands somewhere between weird and heavy. They talk about growing up on Grateful Dead, Weird Al, and Adventure Club, and how those early shows shaped their path into electronic music. We also hear the full story of a surprise backstage moment with Skrillex at Soul Quest, and why that night was a turning point. From dreadlock maintenance to military stories and festival bromance, this one's full of wild memories, unexpected tangents, and pure Sound Haven energy.

In this throwback episode, I'm joined by Bill Manspeaker of the outrageous Green Jellÿ for one of the most fascinating—and NSFW—interviews I've ever recorded. We dive deep into the band's wild history, including their Guinness World Record for the most band members (with over 900 members worldwide at the time of recording!), their chaotic appearance on The Gong Show, and the infamous moment Joey Ramone called them the worst band The Ramones ever played with. Bill shares behind-the-scenes stories about producing the Cereal Killer VHS and soundtrack one video at a time, and how the band once held the record for the highest-debuting rock single in UK chart history. We also explore the band's ties to Tool, their legal battle over the name Green Jellö, and their collaboration with Marvel Comics on Carnage Rules. Other unforgettable moments include recording “I'm the Leader of the Gang (I Am)” with Hulk Hogan, working with (or without) Metallica in regards to the breakdown in “Electric Harley House (Of Love),” working on music videos for 2Pac, Marilyn Manson, and “Weird Al” Yankovic, touring with KISS during their 1997 reunion, and performing at the Gathering of the Juggalos alongside Insane Clown Posse.

Become A Righteous Reject by Snagging Our RR Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ With the Seth Macfarlane (Family Guy) & Liam Neeson Naked Gun (2025) on the horizon - Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult reaction is here! Greg Alba, Aaron Alexander, and Andrew Gordon (Cinepals) return to wrap up the iconic trilogy starring the legendary Leslie Nielsen as the endlessly clumsy yet lovable Frank Drebin in the final entry of the Naked Gun series. In this reaction, we dive into all the absurd gags, slapstick brilliance, and unforgettable moments from the 1994 comedy classic, including the Oscars sequence, "Nice beaver!" callback, explosive train climax, and Weird Al Yankovic's cameo. We break down how the film satirizes Hollywood, award shows, and action movie tropes with pitch-perfect timing and Nielsen's deadpan brilliance. We also spotlight returning cast members Priscilla Presley as Jane Spencer, George Kennedy as Ed Hocken, and O.J. Simpson as Nordberg, alongside Fred Ward (Tremors) as villain Rocco Dillon, Anna Nicole Smith as Tanya, and Kathleen Freeman as the prison warden. With guest appearances by Raquel Welch, James Earl Jones, and more, this wild finale delivers non-stop laughs. We celebrate the legacy of this franchise, touch on its influence on spoof movies, and share our favorite quotes, like “Like a midget at a urinal, I was going to have to stay on my toes.” If you're a fan of Airplane!, Hot Shots, or 90s parody films, this one's for you.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema's biggest box office failures and decide whether they deserve a second chance. We are celebrating five years of discussing cinematic flops! Did you know the Roku Channel existed? (No, seriously, it's not just a screensaver for your TV!) Did you know they make original content? Did you know they handed over $8 million of actual, spendable money to fund a satirical biopic? Well, bust out your Hawaiian shirts and accordions, because all of that is true — and the result was Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. It's a wonderfully unhinged parody of the life of “Weird” Al, brimming with the kind of silly-yet-sincere sweetness only a man who made “Eat It,” “Like a Surgeon,” and “Amish Paradise” could deliver. This movie is criminally underseen (like, “should be serving a life sentence” underseen), and Troy and Brad spend this episode doing what any good friends would do — aggressively bragging at their listeners until they finally go watch it.Weird: The Al Yankovic Story is directed by Eric Appel and stars Daniel Radcliffe, Evan Rachel Wood, Rainn Wilson, Toby Huss, and Julianne NicholsonMerch store! Head over to the Not A Bomb Tee Public store and check them out. Special thanks to Ted Blair for the amazing designs!We're committed to hearing your feedback and suggestions. If there's a cinematic flop you'd like us to delve into, please reach out to us at NotABombPod@gmail.com or through our contact page. Your reviews and feedback are what drive us.
