Listen Now

In our first episode in a WHILE, Weezee and Slammy deviate from the Nirvana talk and go straight into a post-first-listen of Metallica's second S&M release.  

In this (very late) episode, Weezee and Slammy podcast from newly founded Wet Bandits Studios to discuss Butch Vig's influence on Nirvana's sophomore effort, Nevermind.  The boys covered this one long ago, so this episode focuses on how each song on Nevermind might be different had it been produced by someone else.  It's a weird episode, but we hope you enjoy it!

In this episode in which Slammy lets Weezee--and you, the listener--down by not waking up in time to record, the podcasters kick off their Nirvana discography with Bleach. Harder and darker than you typically think of Nirvana, Bleach is a sign of things to come. Good songwriting, good melodies, good hooks. Sloppy drums, loose band, under-produced. Whether intentional or otherwise, this offering doesn't live up to what Nevermind would become, but you can certainly see the roots that would become the foundation of what Nevermind was and is.

Would you like to hear what it sounds like for a podcast to lose all sense of direction and meaning!? Have you ever thought to yourself, "I bet there's, objectively, a 'worst podcast episode ever' out there somewhere!"  Well, you're right, there is.  And you've found it. The delay of Weezer's Van Weezer album forced a little improv on our part, and that improv proved to had some bad audio so we had to do it AGAIN very close to the day this ep was due.  So--we give you our Weezer wrap-up episode--complete with discussion of The Last Dance and the current COVID-19 climate.

This episode features two Beer Mile greats (Slammy and special guest, Seth Westfall) and one Beer Mile "ain't" (Weezee, obviously)talking Weezer's most recent full-length release: their "Black Album". With some hip-hop sensibilities, but slightly darker lyrical tone, this is one of Weezer's most divisive releases yet.

In this episode, our heroes cover Weezer's Teal Album--an all-covers offering that gives a lot of new fans something to get excited about, but might leave some Weezer fans looking for, well, just some new material. Their cover of Toto's "Africa" is a huge hit, but nothing else really caught on nationally. Beyond that, the boys compare each Weezer album to Star Wars films, and create the perfect opener and closer for their own covers album.      

This episode has everything--Weezee talkin' smack about his neighbors, Slammy havin' dreams about playing in KISS, MORE time travel, and (best of all?)a nice, tight sub-50 minute run time! Also the two talk about Weezer's Pacific Daydream.

It's what you've been waiting for, #fandits!  Weezee's wife is back to co-host with your two heroes and this week they're talking about Weezer's self-titled "White Album".   Poppy, catchy, and authentic Weezer by most measures, this episode features a lot of firsts--including the first time in a three-host episode that all three hosts choose the same hidden gem! 

In this episode (that BEGINS with time travel!), Weezee and Slammy get into ANOTHER Weezer comeback album.  This time, it's a return to their "roots"--in a manner of speaking--with their 9th (or 10th, depending on your perspective) full-length release.   Whatever your opinion on the album, it seems most can agree that this is, in some way, a refresher for Weezer after a couple of pop-laden releases that preceded this.  Give it a listen, see what you think!

In this two-for-one episode, Weezee and Slammy try their first episode via ZOOM meeting, as the Coronavirus becomes more and more present in everyone's lives (recorded 3/29/20).  In this ep, the two discuss Weezer's Hurley AND Death To False Metal.   Released just about two months apart, Hurley was Weezer's eighth studio release and DTFM was intended as a collection of B-sides and demos--but Rivers Cuomo himself deemed "Weezer's 9th studio album".  Whatever the case, they both have their merits, and make for an interesting juxtaposition for a couple of albums by the same band released so close together.

In this week's uncharacteristically straightforward episode, Weezee and Slammy B discuss Raditude--another criminally underrated Weezer offering.  Make sure to listen through (or skip to) the end where you can learn how to make Weezee take several pies to the face.  With toppings of your choice!

In this episode--releasing on Weezee's birthday--the boys talk about what might be Weezer's most experimental album: their "Red Album".   This has to be Weezer's most eclectic mix of tunes up to this point--as ALL band members get songwriting credits on at least one song AND they all take lead vocal duties for those songs.  Produced in three sections--each with a different producer--this might prove to be Weezer's strangest album, but it might also push their boundaries more than any effort before or after.

In today's episode, our heroes are talking Weezer's "Make Believe"--the highest-charting album of their career--reaching #2 on the Billboard charts on the strength of "Beverly Hills".   In addition to the album, Weezee and Slammy talk about their most rockin' weekend in recent memory, and they call Slam's dad and he is NOT pleased!

In this episode, Weezee's sister joins the conversation to discuss the final Weezer album she ever purchased: Maladroit. The discussion over what Weezee calls "the forgotten Weezer album" is a lot like Maladroit itself: sometimes half-baked--but REALLY hot stuff when it gets going. Enjoy!

In this week's episode, Weezee and Slammy discuss Weezer's Green Album--which Weezee claimed as his favorite Weezer album for YEARS.  Does he still feel the same way?  Do you think he's crazy?  Find out in this episode--along with a bunch of cool tidbits about how Rivers went a little bit AWOL and bass player Matt Sharp went a LOT AWOL post-Pinkerton.

Weezee and Slam-Jam kick off a new discography today with The Fair Weathered's David Turner Smith as co-host.  They're talking Weezer's classic self-titled debut.  The boys touch on Pinkerton briefly as well--but for a closer look at Pinkerton be sure to check out this episode, as well.

Slammy and Weezee wrap up their Foo Fighters discography with the band's most recent release (at the time of recording): Concrete and Gold.  Also, the two are visited by time travelers from Earth-time future, but from "podcast past"...

In an episode recorded on National Irish Coffee day, Weezee and Slammy take down...SEVERAL...Irish coffees whilst discussing Foo Fighters' eighth release: Sonic Highways.  The two generally find common ground in their opinions on this one--but YOU can be sure to expect the unexpected as our heroes are mysteriously sent through a time travel portal on two separate occasions!

In the first episode a long while with a special guest, Weezee, Slammy, and Ashley "Thrashly" Marshall are here to talk the Foo's 2011 release: Wasting Light. Prepare yourself for a new segment as Weezee takes a "Deep Dive" into Pat Smear and the baritone guitar that ends in an education in "courses" of stringed instruments.   As always, the guest host brings the heat on this episode with a FANTASTIC addition to the #DoYouLie segment, and she regales our heroes with tales of a sweaty embrace with Taylor Hawkins whilst in the presence of prominent hotel pornography.  Strap yourself in.    

 In this episode the boys cover Foo Fighters' Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace (no Oxford comma!).  Slammy defends Dave Grohl's exploitation of the Beaconsfield Miners' tragedy to write a middling "ballad", and Weezee (as usual) nit-picks every songwriting choice Grohl makes.   Join the fun!
