"Listen up, cause I'm only telling you this once: It's 2033. The world is *screwed* now.  You see, a while ago this humongous comet came crashing into the earth. Bam, total devastation. End of the world as we know it..." That's the setting for this week's episode, Tank Girl! The post apocalyptic cult 90s classic. And I know what you're thinking; please let that comet get here faster. Chris picked this soundtrack and the gang may not ever forgive him. The music has a fun grungey vibe but the movie...WOW. Someone needs to take the makers to Kangaroo Court. Caleb unleashed a war themed edition of Covers Blown and we each recommend our favorite military song. Enjoy, and lock up your sons!

Hot damn, what an episode! Nick picked the soundtrack to Singles (1992) and we couldn't have had a better time discussing Cameron Crowe's grunge era classic. Put on a flannel and transport yourself back to a time when Gen Xers roamed Seattle, met at Alice in Chains concerts and confessed their love via answering machines. Nick also provided the game and put together an epic edition of Super Group. Can't wail about this 'sode enough. Don't be a cob nobbler, if you're bound and hagged and you're not a total lamestain, come jam with us! 

Caleb is dead set on making this a vampire only podcast so he picked Twilight for this week's episode. As many of you know, we are HUGE Twilight heads. Can't stop debating about Team Jacob this, Team Edward that...okay we can't lie, this movie and soundtrack are bananas and we definitely dunk on it. If you're a Twilight fan please listen to the ep and share your thoughts but we feel we are fair in our critiques! I will say, Nick seems more smitten with the franchise than he leads on (he's seen all 5 movies)! Steamy vampires aside, this was a very fun episode. Chris put together another edition of nobodies favorite game, Tinseltown Tunes and we recommend "a song a lot older than it seems". Take a bite and drink it in!

This week's episode is Eddie Griffin's masterpiece, Undercover Brother. This soundtrack was a Chris pick (suggested by an old buddy, Kyle) and it's filled to the gills with grooves from the all-time funkiest. Caleb brought back a classic game that we haven't played in a while, Covers Blown and we recommend our favorite sibling song. Also, Nick gives some insider secrets about slappin' the bass and whether it's frowned upon or not. Does this 2002 spoof of blaxploitation films hold up by today's standards? Tune in to hear 3 white guys' opinion that no one asked for! 

This episode is a real corker! The Tropic Thunder soundtrack, a tribute to the harrowing story of Vietnam veteran, Four Leaf Tayback. This was a Nick pick and the soundtrack's got some classic Vietnam Era jams (Creedence, Steppenwolf, Edwin Starr) with some surprises (Crystal Method, Enigma) thrown in there too. It's a helluva star-studded cast (Stiller, Cruise, Downey, Jack Black, McConaughey, McBride) and some of them make, uh...interesting choices. Could this movie be made today? We know the answer, because we are the authority on all subjects. We played Nick's famous Rhyme Time and recommend our favorite parody song to the Official Track Listing Playlist. Tune in and GET SOME!

Because we're still on the spooky train, Caleb picked the soundtrack to the Faculty. Aliens AND teachers? Doesn't get scarier than that. This is a really fun ep. We dive deep into this flawed but highly entertaining 90's cult classic. It's got an amazing cast and an iconic soundtrack (for some people). Nick's shares some behind the scenes info on equally legendary bands Pink Floyd, Oasis and Creed. Chris took a big swing with a scary game called Horror Scorer that went over fine. So crack open a pen of scat and give this one a listen. Forget about your troubles for a while because at least we're not under alien attack...yet.

Imagine your new next door neighbor was a vampire! Even scarier, what if he was a vampire named Jerry Dandrige? Get ready for a spooky halloween episode because Chris picked the soundtrack to Fright Night! Listen in sheer terror as we discuss the J. Geils Band, Autograph, Sparks and other ghoulish musicians. And if you aren't dead from shock, join us as we play a bone chilling edition of Caleb's Dollar Dash. Have you goosebumps yet? You will, as we describe a movie so hair-raising, it stars Chris Sarandon (Prince Humperdinck) and Amanda Bearse (Marcy from Married with Children)! The horror!! Don't listen to this episode alone! Seriously, tell a friend about our podcast. Sweet screams and GOOD FRIGHT!

Is it better to speak or die? Are we classical music people? Peach or Apricot? These are the questions we ask on this week's episode, Call Me By Your Name. Nick picked this soundtrack. He also put together an edition of Rhyme Time that'll knock you off your bicicletta. Hey real talk though, they're selling the house in Northern Italy where this movie was filmed, hit us up if you wanna buy it. We can play volleyball, listen to 80s Italian radio hits and then stare into a fire. Seriously think about it.

This week's episode is a Caleb pick: Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist. Michael Cera is back and this time he's in a band, again! Kat Dennings is a record executive's daughter who can't stop drooling over Cera's sexy mumblecore ass. I shouldn't poke fun because this movie is actually based on our Nick's life. Take a journey with us to 2008 New York, when hipster bands ruled the city and parking was was incredibly easy. Chris brings back Tinseltown Tunes possibly for the last time (address hatemail to his Twitter).  And if you didn't know already, we here at Track Listing have our own infinite playlist on Spotify. Follow the Official Track Listing Podcast Playlist to hear our recommendations!

In order to create a podcast, you must be of noble birth. Thankfully, we found a degenerate gambler named Geoffrey to forge our credentials. You too can change your stars and follow your feet because this week, Chris picked A Knight's Tale! It's a movie where Heath Ledger is some lowborn scum who grifts his way into jousting tournaments set to "modern" rock music. Caleb brought back MC Synopsis as we continue to add to our list of rap songs that summarize entire movie plots. Nick regaled us with behind the music tales from songs on this soundtrack and we add our favorite anachronistic song to the playlist. A Knight's Tale has been weighed, it has been measured, and we have found it to be a very solid episode. Also, listeners: Please message Nick and Caleb about their new favorite genre of music, bardcore aka tavernwave.
