Welcome to DON'T CALL US SHIRLEY! A PARODY MOVIE PODCAST, proudly sponsored this time by ParoAds, because some things are just too good not to make fun of - including us!

Hosted by A. J. Black and Matt Latham, Don't Call Us Shirley! explores the breadth of cinematic parody and pastiche across the decades, tackling the great, good and obscure along the way.

In this episode, they look at 2022's unorthodox parody biopic, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.

Charting the unusual life story of legendary singer/songwriter comedian 'Weird' Al Yankovic, the film sees Daniel Radcliffe step into the shoes of an irreverent American icon. But how does this tale intersect with the musical biopic? Is it a parody or a parody of a parody? And will our heads stop hurting after typing that sentence? Find out!
