Barenaked ABCs - Alphabetical Barenaked Ladies Catalog

I worked hard on this week’s episode, even though the quality doesn’t quite sound like it.  I had to keep asking “How’s The Level?”  And finally had to answer “Okay”.  So please forgive me if Jeff’s audio sounds Buck Naked.  Oh… and we are discussing all these things this week.

Appearance 

Bumper Stumpers counted among its contestants one budding star who received his first TV appearance ever on the show – none other than Steven Page! #CanadasGameShows

This week we had a guest from the other side of the country. We had to bring him in through the air to get here in time. Given social distancing, airplane travel didn’t seem right. So David Kincannon brought his own helicopter. I love it when a plan comes together. And speaking of veterans, this week we discuss a protest song, “Helicopters”.

In the live version, in NY on 3/3/04, they put the rotor noises at the beginning and end (and kazoo of “We Are The World”)
