I’m beggin, beggin you, to listen to this tale of how evil bond-style supervillains are conspiring to take over society with This One New Sound that is actually old and grates on your ears. Daniel Thrasher stops into the pod before going out on tour to share the reason he hates this Måneskin song (apparently it’s a C#). Michael Gregory guest hosts to support Evan’s mental health (Evan really tests the bounds of sanity with this week’s punch)

Guest: Daniel Thrasher

Walk-in music: 'Tiptoe Through The Tulips' by Tiny Tim; 'Grazing In The Grass' by The Friends of Distinction.

Evan's losing his mind and has Friend of the Pod and Beachboyologist Tim Daniels (The Complete Guide to Everything) in for triage. The Beach Boys: They got around in every way you’re thinking. In the fictional but sort of autobiographical world of this song there’s drag racing, hot promiscuous sex, bragging about fat stacks, and “cool head”, yikes. In the real world there was abuse, fights, drowning, beefing with other bands, not to mention the Manson family stuff. As the Beachies sang, Fun, Fun, FUN!

Guest: Tim Daniels

Walk-in music: 'Taboo' by Caterina Valente; 'Revolution Blues' by Neil Young.

The song that launched a million emo kids! Have you ever felt like you can’t wake up? Did you try having a random dude yell CANT WAKE UP at you? Evan, set adrift as a solo host, sorely missing his cohost Andrew (who’s on paternity leave), pulls in the next best thing, his other brother Michael, who proceeds to hit a home run with a stunning GUEST PUNCH. This episode gets to the bottom of what Bring Me To Life is really about: no it’s not the clown from It, but he does come up for some goth reason. 

Guest: Michael Gregory

Walk-in music: a surprise REVERSE PUNCH they said it couldn't be done!!

With Ahms Wahd O-PAHNN. Why would we ever want to punch up this beloved song about daddy issues?? Evan and Andrew interrogate YouTube legend Markiplier (Mark Fischbach) about his childhood connection to this sensitive but rockin' tune. Many groundbreaking ideas and questions come to the surface: How NOT to do your album art photoshop, Why does Scott Stapp sing like a muppet, How does Andrew have a certain musical Spidey Sense, Why did Scott Stapp fight another rock band and have an orgy with Kid Rock?

Guest: Markiplier

Walk-in music: 'Silence Kid' by Pavement; 'Spaceship Superstar' by Prism; 'Homeworld (The Ladder)' by Yes.

All we are is dust in the wind, dude. This crucial insight has been blowing the minds of rock fans for decades. Dust. Wind. Think about it man!! Andrew & Evan get into the nitty-gritty on this classic hit and are shocked, shocked to discover that the band Kansas is actually from Kansas!! And somehow this song is the first thing the singer ever learned to play on the guitar?? They get in a fight about Evan's soundboard abuse, but make up by the end of the episode to make a Very Special Announcement about hosting the podcast.  

Walk-in music: 'All My Life' by K-Ci & JoJo; 'Everywhere' by Fleetwood Mac.

It's the hit of the century! It sounds like it's from the 1980s and the 2080s at the same time! Everyone and their pet alien loves this song, and that's why, to punch it up, we knew we had to enlist the help of Connor Ratliff, a legend in the podcastiverse for his dedication to dissecting utter minutiae. And Connor did not disappoint, at one point obsessing over the syllables in a single measure to the point that Evan yelled "YOU HAVE GASLIT YOURSELF!" Our intrepid astronauts veer across the Milky Way and discover connections from Dua Lipa's Levitating to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Jon Ossoff, and beer-brewing Trappist monks. 

Guest: Connor Ratliff

Walk-in music: 'I Drink Beer' by Dan Reeder; 'Got To Give It Up' by Marvin Gaye; 'Pumped Up Kicks' by Foster The People.

MONDAYS AMIRITE???? Is the very controversial claim at the heart of this huge 80s hit from the Bangles. Evan and Andrew investigate whether Mondays are really persecuting The Bangles orrrrrr was this song perhaps written by an alien who had just learned about human jobs? No, in fact, it was written by Prince, and this episode reveals that he plagiarized one of his own @%#$ songs when phoning in the writing of this overgrown nursery rhyme. DJs and producers, don’t miss the absolutely sick sample pack of snares that Evan drops at 17:45, completely manic. Historians, don’t miss Andrew’s insights about Mike Myers, Fun Days, and Sex Shooters. 

This week’s punch up is exTREMEly useful in your everyday life and if it had its own title other than “Manic Monday Punch Up” it would be “The Consequences Of My Actions” -- get this song and other punch ups on our Patreon: www.patreon.com/gregorybrothers and support the pod! 

Walk-in music: 'Whiter Shade of Pale' by Procol Harum; 'Bang Bang' by Joe Cuba Sextet.

“I’m not a perfect person,” begins this very imperfect song by perfectly named Hoobastank. NO DURR. Mano Agapion (Drag Her, Podcast Killed The Video Star) absolutely hoobed in with some stanky insights, and we can now call this song what it is: abuse. Even more shocking discoveries are made about the SoCal ska scene, Ross from Friends, and Biff from Back to the Future. Andrew brings an eye-opening punch up to the show that changes everything. And the reason is…..you.

Guest: Mano Agapion

Walk-in music: 'I'll Be There For You' by The Rembrandts; 'Thank You For Being a Friend' by Andrew Gold; 'Embryonic Journey' by Jefferson Airplane.

Khruangbin: indie darlings that combine world music with vintage soul, all while making you feel like you stumbled into one of those Chill Beats Study Music For A Rainy Day playlists. Incredible music with one HUGE problem that results in a....punch up that is serious? That probably should win a Grammy? For those keeping score at home, Evan thinks he's gonna get away with not having to lose at trivia, but Andrew spontaneously springs one on him during this week's corrections round-up.

You want it...that way? WHAT WAY?!? Evan and Andrew are joined by Backstreet Boys' superfans Jack Douglass and Erin Breslin to get to the bottom of WHAT WAY the Backstreet Boys so desperately wanted, while also wanting so desperately for their fire, their one desire, to NOT also want even as they were wanting it. Wow. Along the way, our gang also discusses the songs most entangled by their relationships with direct objects, the Susquehanna River, and the crimes of Lou Pearlman.

Walk-in Music: 'Hey Leonardo (She Likes Me For Me)' by Blessid Union of Souls; 'Graduation' by Vitamin C.
