267 - Mancunian Moptops

Charles and Alex dive into "Pac-Man Fever" hitmakers Buckner & Garcia, listening to deep cuts about Waffle House, Angry Birds, and Saddam Hussein. Plus, Brian Epstein's ghost should have visited John Lennon in 1969 and told him to put the damn suits and moptops back on.

266 - Knock Knock Knocking on Dylan's Door

Machine Gun Kelly thinks he might be part alien. Jeff Bezos needs to send him and Tom DeLonge to space, unlike Katy Perry they have important research to do up there. Plus, Jeff Tweedy (I call him Greedy Tweedy) is throwing too many damn pitches for the NL Central.

Lollicops Live Performance

I was thinking recently that it's a strange facet of Making Music on the Computer that often a song will just never be performed. With the goal of seeing how good of a performance video I can film on a $0 budget, me and some friends learned a handful of Alex's songs and mine and filmed them at a friend's practice space. Here's the first one, not sure what kind of schedule we will release these ...

265 - Lobster is Baby Food Cause You Have to Wear a Bib

Charles and Alex listen to Crazy Frog deep cuts while exploring many issues. Was Soulja Boy the American Crazy Frog? Are Romanian ticks extra good at blood sucking cause they have to compete with Dracula?

264 - Famous Birthdays Should Be Retired

Drake, Eve Barlow, and Pat Boone pay tribute to Ozzy. And maybe we need to consider the possibility that Billy Joel was completely sober when he crashed his car through someone's living room.

Charles' Music Video with Home Planet

Home Planet (frequent Pod About List collaborators and occasional E1 guests) cooked up this music video which is, basically, about how fast little animated critters grow up. I think we can all relate. This song is from an EP I'...

263 - First as New Game, Then as New Game+

Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson should take over the development of Akon City. If Coldplay is using the kiss cam at the arena, why don't they use the scoreboard too?

262 - Dead & Co. Full John Mayer Cover Set

Musicians should start doing MLMs, selling fans merch in bulk for them to sell to each other. Plus, Jack White got his first cell phone. Now is the time to send your catfish DMs and ask for his Apple Pay.

261 - The Poochie Effect

Oasis is serving burnt scran for 20 quid at the gig. The Velvet Sundown will never work because they could never be as late for their own show as Lauryn Hill. The handkerchief code applies to Weezer albums and your favorite color album denotes what you're into sexually.

260 - Beyonce Walking Out of 7-Eleven with Eight BuzzBallz

Pop stars should have Mousetrap-style Rube Goldberg devices onstage. Vince Neil falls for porn bots and a footwear startup is using the blockchain to generate an A.I. shoe design in space.

Life (Song Download)

I (Charles) have a song out today called "Life" on YouTube, Spotify, etc. Lisa Vitale who was on the Brewer Grouse episode of E1 (2025-06-25 17:49:22 +0000 UTC View Post

259 - The Whiskey a Go Go is Like Colonial Williamsburg for Hair Metal

Eve Barlow memorializes Brian Wilson and Drake has the pass to accuse others of being goofs. Plus: Who wore it better? Will Smith or JoCat?

258 - It's Weezer and It's Weezy

Lil Wayne and Weezer linked up again to predictable results. Also, Bob Dylan should use a dick pic as his next album cover.

257 - Kiss the Machine

We're the only people on earth covering the indie post-grunge band Puddle of Mudd. Plus, should we taxidermy Diddy? And how come we aren't making new mummies anymore?

Sympathy for Dracula, the Mummy, etc. (Song Download)

The new song from last week's episode with Noah and Brendan is now on YouTube, streaming, etc. WAV and MP3 downloads below!

256 - Sympathy for Dracula, the Mummy, etc. (ft. Brendan James and Noah Kulwin)

Blowback's Noah Kulwin (@nkulw) and Brendan James (@deep_beige) join Charles and Alex to make a more realistic version of Sympathy for the Devil.

255 - The God of Thunder Pretends to Drink Cum

Tommy Lee's wife gets catfished by a fake Ronnie Radke, Meghan Trainor embraces a new kind of body positivity, and Gene Simmons pretends to drink cum for disinterested casino crowds.

254 - Ethical Diddy

The New York Times went backstage with Gene Simmons, and Remove Paywall Dot Com gave us the full scoop. Plus, Meghan Trainor has been featured on the Wikipedia front page a suspicious number of times and one Wikipedian has had enough.

AutoCritic 56: KISS - Destroyer

An album designed to convince 13-year-old boys that girls are really into guys who dress up like comic book characters.

253 - The Hollywood Walk of Fame Has Predicted Bill Cosby's Impending Demise

Puddle of Mudd debuts a new song during a Jiffy Lube oil change. The buried lede is that Wes Scantlin is responsible enough to get his oil changed. Plus, we should get rid of the Hollywood Walk of Fame and replace it with an ossuary full of all our best celebs' skeletons.

252 - Money Should Go Bad Like Bread Does

Charles and Alex debut "David Sirota" and run down the 10 most popular YouTube music videos of all time. Plus, who else remembers when we used to have breadcrumbs trails all over the ground?

AutoCritic 55: L. Ron Hubbard - Space Jazz

A cutting-edge sci-fi odyssey from a guy who was still talking about Buck Rogers years after Star Wars was out.

David Sirota (Song Download)

Brand new heat just dropped, "David Sirota" MP3 and WAV downloads below, coming to streaming services on Friday

251 - Crack Mt. Rushmore

Deadmau5 compromised the moral and spiritual integrity of Coachella by spraying silly string on people. The Romans would have killed so many Christians in the Sphere. And there's too many popes in Heaven.

AutoCritic 54: Bill Cosby Talks to Kids About Drugs

Bill Cosby's anti-drug album takes place in a psychedelic world where doing drugs causes you to steal TVs AND have your TV stolen.

250 - Dinner with Jay Z University

Katy Perry is excited to learn more about STEM. Rivers Cuomo has a fucking Shakespeare sticker on his guitar and also the cops shot his bassist's wife. Shakespeare would have loved Spotify because there's so many "plays" on there. Does Robert Pollard ever do "cool teacher" stuff in his class, like bring in his guitar to sing songs about PEMDAS?

249 - Bingeable Moments in the Death of Empire

Pete Best has retired. His old band the Quarrymen were on some Flintstones shit. The Beatles should have linked up with the Chipmunks in their prime, they were the two most famous varispeed bands basically doing the same shit. And the Sgt. Pepper album cover was basically Fortnite just cramming a bunch of IP together.

248 - Who is Harvesting the Snake Sperm in Jessica Simpson's Vocal Tonic?

Why do dumb tech guys keep buying Napster? Was Obama even the best presidential candidate in the Choom Gang? Has rap lost the white pillhead?

Sono Wake Wo (Asian Kung-Fu Generation Cover)

I recorded this cover to use as the ending theme of E1's Dogcatcher Inutaro series we're going to start releasing tomorrow. We talked about Asian Kung-Fu Generation on an episode last year with Hot Dad 2025-04-02 17:51:25 +0000 UTC View Post

247 - Set Up the Drum

Dan catches up with Charles about his latest adventures and JoJo Siwa tries to be Gene Simmons.
