Barenaked ABCs - Alphabetical Barenaked Ladies Catalog

Man, I had to get drunk this week to enjoy this song.  But how did the other guys feel about “In The Drink”.  We also ask Tyler Boudreau what he thought.  This week’s discussion gets bloody.

You know what BNL needs. An Indy Car. And over the radio, they need to play one song. This week’s song. The whole race. That guy will drive so fast to get out of the car. But is that just from the monotony or because this week’s song is that bad? And does Ali McBride agree with us? Listen to find out

“In The Car” online 

Appearance 

BNL had their own stock car (#29 GM Goodwrench Chevrolet Monte Carlo with their name on the hood.  They performed at the Richmond International Raceway for the Chevy Rock and Roll 400 race (Sept 9, 2006) when it debuted.

That’s right. We didn’t talk about this quintessential song enough last week, so we invited Steffan and Jeff to join us this week for their opinions. And since we didn’t have appearances last week, here are some:

I wish that this podcast made me rich, but instead I get to talk about a band that is rich every week. And this week we have Blake Reilly to discuss this essential BNL song.

This week we discuss the multiple implications that could have been Steve Squared’s inspiration for this song. Is the singer questioning?  Are you confused?  As Mary says in JCS, “Everything’s alright, everything’s fine.”  And hopefully you will feel the same about this episode!

I got hungry during this taping, so I apologize.  But it’s okay.  I ate three chips on open air (on open air, on open air). The rest of the cast is chip free. So enjoy this show with our guest, Tyler Boudreau from “WIdlcat Minute”
