We'z Talkin' Weez' 2 Thee

This is essentially the "casual Friday" of episodes: Chris + Chris listen to some Weezer songs on shuffle and share their random thoughts. They also share wayyy too much information about RI accents, Guitar Hero and sex sounds (no, not Pet Sounds...sex sounds). But at its core, this just an hour of two friends enjoying some quality Weezer music as well as each other's company.

The Blue Album faces off against Metallica's iconic Black Album on the premier episode of Blue Album Battle! Hosts Chris + Chris evaluate the albums on 10 different criteria:

1. Opening Track
2. Heart Songs
3. Lyrics
4. Vocals
5. Production & Sound
6. Riffs
7. Rhythm Section
8. Sequencing & Arranging
9. Skippability Factor
10. Closing Track

Listen and learn who comes out on top...at least according to two silly men named Chris.

Chris + Chris (of We'z Talkin' Weez' 2 Thee) lay out their plans for this new podcast venture: The Blue Album Battle! They also take the opportunity to list their top 3 favorite albums of 2019.

They're baaaaack! That's right Chris, Chris AND Weezer are all back with some sweet new 'tent for your tender ears...on September 10th, the band officially released "The End of the Game" - the first single off their forthcoming record VAN WEEZER (coming in May 2020). They also announced a mega huuuuuge new tour alongside Green Day and Fall Out Boy! So suffice it to say, C + C have PLENTY to talk about. The boys also discuss Weezer's lead single legacy and preview what they have in store for Season 2 of the podcast!

The Chrisses have a unique one for you this (bi)week…with summertime scheduling conflicts running amok (and a sure-to-be epic “Death to False Metal” episode impatiently waiting to be tracked), Chris the Elder takes the mic SOLO-style and offers an inside look into how to write and record an original song. The song in question is pertinent since it was inspired BY WEEZER and describes their controversial creative arc. No, it doesn’t much sound like our beloved L.A. Boyz but C + C hope you’ll all get something out of this unfiltered look into a human's creative and recording process. Also you'll learn the origins of "scat" singing so there's that...

Well folks, in the immortal words of someone who kinda knows the lyrics to "Sgt. Pepper" - it was 25 years ago today! That's right, this day marks the silver anniversary of Weezer's Blue Album and Chris + Chris are ready to celebrate! Fun discussions and CONTROVERSIAL opinions abound in this 3+ hour breakdown of one of the best albums...ever. The boys also manage to eliminate one song each with their Black Album selections and perhaps even more impressively, narrow their favorites down to just 3 "heart" songs.

Can C + C  really spend 140 minutes discussing a 28 minute record?? You better believe it! This week the boys break down the 10 tight, little pop rock nuggets which comprise Weezer's Green Album. They also talk Blind Melon, AC/DC, Yo La Tengo and even the great Henry Mancini...also heroin. And after much debate, they manage to muster up 3 heart songs that may leave listeners scratching (and shaking) their heads...
