Episodes – Hear Me Out

Hey you! Turn down that Everclear Christmas album and listen to the second part of our Christmas Specialsode! We’ve got Cathryn Mudon (UCB) and Michael Delaney (UCB, The Other Guys) back again to chat about the Christmas songs we are embarrassed we love. If you consider a podcast about bad music  a gift, then Christmas just came early!

Alden’s Pick: The Drifters – White Christmas

Hark how the bells, sweet silver bells, all seem to say, “Hear me out!” We’ve got Caitlin Bitzegaio (UCBT) returning and first time guest Brett White (Matt and Brett Love Comics) talking about some good/bad Christmas songs. So grab a cup of cheer, start gift wrapping that Old Navy performance fleece, and enjoy!

Alden’s Pick: Bing Crosby – Mele Kalikimaka

We’ve got Will Hines (UCBT) in what may be his last podcast appearance before moving to L.A. This is the closest we’ll ever get to a scoop, folks. We talk about the tamest songs around, compare great artists to terrible bands, you know, the usual. Enjoy!

Alden’s Pick: Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville – Don’t Know Much

We’re back! We’ve got the lovely Mike Trapp (CollegeHumor) who explains losing two years of your teenage life to Korea and how it can shape your music listening. Join us as we listen to a song meant for the WB, a song meant for middle aged women, and a song meant for MEATLOAF AND HIS LADIES! Enjoy!

Winston’s Pick: Shawn Colvin – Sunny Came Home

Welcome back! Like a Mariah Carey ex, we knew you could never stay away for too long. You’ll understand that when you listen to the show. We’ve got the great Charlie Todd (Improv Everywhere, UCB) to talk a wimpy song, a clingy song, and song that will make you want to go HIGHER. We think you might kind of like it.

Winston’s Pick: Deep Blue Something – Breakfast At Tiffany’s

Greeting humans! Grab your pan flute and tabard, pile into a VW bus and join in our revels. Welcome to our special fantasy episode of Hear Me Out! We got three great observations (songs) for you and the wonderful Michael Delaney (The Other Guys, UCB, A prince of the universe) to help us down the road the Shambala.

Winston’s Pick: Three Dog Night – Shambala

We’re back! After a brief but eventful hiatus including trips abroad and marriage proposals (well, one of each), we are diving back into the bottom of the music barrel to find that we’re not even close to the end of these beautiful, ridiculous dregs.

This week we are joined by the incredible Laura Willcox, who brings her very own favorite karaoke standard featuring the highest ratio of impassioned musical riffing to interesting ideas (at 10,000:0). Winston brings in a bait and switch of hard rock and emo pining & whining, and Alden brings a track that we’re pretty sure is literally about being in love with an inanimate object. Banality, whining, and unrequited love: what a way to start off our sophomore season! Join us, won’t you?

Winston’s Pick: American Hi Fi – Flavor of the Weak

In perhaps our most aggressively dumb episode yet, we discuss songs in love with underwear, cars, songs, dumps, trucks, you know, a lot of things!

This week we’re joined by Chart Throb columnist and UCB comedian Brian Glidewell to discuss whether or not our musical pleasures should be considered guilty, even when they are vapid, inscrutable, silly, twangy or evoke the image of a silver-haired one-hit-wonder being shot out of a cannon into a giant butt. Plus, Journey and a pop-country song we can mostly agree on! Any way you want this episode, that’s the way you need it. Whatever the hell that means.

Winston’s pick: Sisqo – Thong Song

In episode 27 we discuss some of music’s greatest legends – The Beatles. Elvis. Beethoven. Gershwin. Not because we brought those songs in, no no. But one of our songs references all those people! And we DO have rock luminaries Wheatus, Enya, and Fleetwood Mac’s keyboardist.

This week we are joined by the amazing Cathryn Mudon, kindred spirit of the show, to talk about post-college a cappella fandom, dirtbags teenage and otherwise and explaining beauty to visitors from another world.

Winston’s pick: Wheatus – Teenage Dirtbag

It’s a Swedish Invasion on today’s episode!

We’ve got the fantastic Emily Altman (Inside Amy Schumer) to help us “get thai-ed” as we navigate three songs that definitely bring International Flava. Also, NICKELBACK makes its debut on the show. NICKELBACK.

Alden’s Pick: Listen to Your Heart-Roxette
