  • Year of the Weasel Episode 4.5: Is Pauly Shore Okay?

    As we prepare for our grim tour of duty with In the Army Now, here’s a minisode where we dig a little more into Totally Pauly’s chaotic live spring break incarnation, “Chillin’ with the Wiez.” We also catch up on some of the more recent happenings in the Paulyverse, leading to the introduction of a…

  • Year of the Weasel Episode 4: Son in Law (1993)

    Our year-long deep dive into the filmography of Pauly Shore continues with 1993’s Son in Law: a heartwarming culture clash romantic comedy about how you shouldn’t call members of the white rural working class inbreeders, even after they roofie you and leave you in a compromising position to destroy your sham engagement. Whoops, spoilers!

  • Headbangers Book Club: Pamela Des Barres’ I’m with the Band (Part 2)

    At long last, we’re finally concluding our two-parter on Pamela Des Barres’ epochal memoir I’m with the Band! In this episode, we get in some more digs at our nemesis Jimmy Page, with some bonus potshots at Don Johnson, and continue to gush about how nice it is to read a book where you don’t…

  • Headbangers Book Club: Morris Day’s On Time (Part 2)

    It’s #jhericurljune in July! After a brief delay due to COVID- and car theft-related trauma, we’re finally back with Part 2 of our deep dive on Morris Day‘s 2019 memoir On Time: A Princely Life in Funk!

  • Headbangers Book Club: Morris Day’s On Time (Part 1)

    It’s a special #jhericurljune installment of the ol’ Book Club as we dig into 2019’s On Time: A Princely Life in Funk by Morris Day with David Ritz–so, slightly less headbanging than normal, but don’t worry, there’s plenty of the important stuff (i.e., cocaine).

  • Headbangers Book Club: Meat Loaf’s To Hell and Back

    Turns out Meat Loaf needed a little extra time in the oven, but we’re finally back to discuss the late vocal powerhouse’s 2000 memoir To Hell and Back. Join us as we ponder Meat’s many concussions, his suitably operatic relationship with the also-recently-departed Jim Steinman, and how he’s easily in the top five of anti-maskers…

  • Headbangers Book Club: Sebastian Bach’s 18 and Life on Skid Row (Part 2)

    Hey mothertruckers, we’re Bach in the saddle with Part 2 of our series on Sebastian Bach‘s 18 and Life on Skid Row! This book really picked up in the second half, so please excuse the slightly flabby runtime; there’s just too many good stories for us not to discuss them. Join us again in two…

  • Headbangers Book Club: Sebastian Bach’s 18 and Life on Skid Row (Part 1)

    This month’s official Headbangers Book Club selection is over five years in the making: Callie got her copy of Sebastian Bach’s 18 and Life on Skid Row (signed by Sea Bass himself!) in late 2016, and we’re finally getting around to reading it. This episode covers the first half of the book, give or take,…

  • 12 Months of Mike Month 3: Wayne’s World 2

    We’re now a quarter of the way through our year-long deep dive into the cinematic oeuvre of Mike Myers, and would you believe it, the movie is actually pretty darn good: Wayne’s World 2 may not be quite on the same level as its predecessor, but it’s funnier and more memorable than a sequel to…

  • Podcast: Dystöpian Böök Clüb vs. Mötley Crüe’s The Dirt

    After almost three years of ripping on trashy rock biographies with Dystopian Book Club, it was only a matter of time for us to get around to the trashiest of them all: Neil Strauss’ and Mötley Crüe’s masterpiece of filth-wallowing, The Dirt. The two-hour conversation we had doesn’t even begin to cover everything in the…
