    THE YEAR IN OUTTAKES (PART TWO)

    Episode Notes Its New Years Eve so why not tell 2020 to go Eff itself. Then, once you're done cursing out the arbitrary designation of our temporal placement, why not come back here for a(nother) bonus episode of oops, errors and unconnected conversations. Its sort of left-over audio but we'll be back on Thursday January 14th for our all new and very first episode of 2021. Hope we didn't just curse anything. For full show notes visit www.nahpods.com.

    CHRISTMAS EPISODES OF THE 80S & 90S: BAYWATCH EDITION

    Episode Notes It's Christmas Eve which means waxing up the surf board, slipping on the swim trunks and running in slow-motion across some hot Hollywood beachfront. Or maybe a different tradition. Look, it's been a really off year so, if you are unsure how to celebrate, why not join Tim and guest Jason Dugre as they gather round the Baywatch two-parter "Silent Night, Baywatch Night." It's got David Hasselhoff, Pamela Anderson and ... elves. Yup. Santa's elves are... ahm... are in this Baywatch episode (really, this year has got to stop). You can watch today’s guest JASON DUGRE in GILMORE GIRLS (season 4 episode 12: “A Family Matter), GILMORE GIRLS: A YEAR IN THE LIFE (episode 3: “Summer”) and the independent feature film SAINT BERNARD available for rent and purchase on AMAZON PRIME.

    THE YEAR IN OUTTAKES PART ONE

    Bob and Tim are getting a jump on what should actually be an end of the year exercise. With one new episode still planned for 2020, they are taking today to look back at some previously unstreamed interactions from the past 12 months. Included within are such gems as an injured pinky toe, humans in a Muppet movie, Johnny Nemonic spoilers and a somewhat aroused Huey Lewis. Its a bonus episode to tide you over until ... well.... the Christmas one ... and probably another of these. For full show notes visit www.nahpods.com. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    TRAVIS: THE MAN WHO

    Travis's album THE MAN WHO is now old enough to drink. It's also Bob’s favorite album which is odd as Tim does not remember it from their turn of century apartment. So today they are traveling track by track to uncover why its so meaningful to one and mistaken for Radiohead outtakes by the other. For full show notes visit www.nahpods.com.

    THE SIMPSONS: TREEHOUSE OF HORROR I, II & III

    Nothing says Halloween like the annual network broadcast of IT'S THE GREAT PUMPKIN CHARLIE BROWN, so thanks again, 2020. In its absence, Bob and Tim are watching another animated classic now owned by another streaming service. It's the first three SIMPSONS TREEHOUSE OF HORRORS, back when it was still known as THE SIMPSONS HALLOWEEN SPECIAL and before it was called ANOTHER EPISODE OF THAT SHOW I USE TO WATCH. Good grief, its the first time they're talking about The Simpsons! For full show notes and music attribution visit www.nahpods.com. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    DISASTER & A TWO WEEK HIATUS

    Normally you’d be hearing “Hey everyone every, my name is Tim Blevins” followed by "20TH CENTURY POP!," or “MENAGE A POP” or some other podcast with the word “pop” in it. But there’s been a glitch. Not in the Matrix but in the production of the show. So here’s that name Tim Blevins telling everyone ever an explanation on what the eff happened, where the eff the shows are and when the eff they are coming back (full disclosure, its in the title of the episode). MENAGE A POP RETURNS MONDAY, OCTOBER 26th & 20TH CENTURY POP! RETURNS THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29th!(that's two exclamation points). This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

    THE RETURN OF THE POP 5!

    It's been a while since the show featured a POP 5. In case you forgot, the Pop 5 was an intermittently reoccurring segment from the earliest days of this podcast. Its something Tim always thought would take off, while Bob just hoped it would drop off. Well today neither one gets their wish as it makes a fanfare-less return with probably the only Bill Bixby reference this show will ever make.

    THE HALLOWEEN THAT ALMOST WASN'T

    Trick or treating has been (understandably) called off. But does that mean Halloween is canceled? Last time this was proposed the world plunged into despair and only Judd Hirsch in a cape could rescue it. Wait... what was that last sentence? TAXI’s Judd Hirsch? Apparently he was at the center of a late ‘70s debacle known as THE HALLOWEEN THAT ALMOST WASN’T. And while its not something Bob or Tim grew up watching, their inaugural viewing might be just the thing to save their spooky holiday. Or... at the very least ... get the DEAR JOHN theme out of their heads. 00:00:00 UNLICENSED AUDIO - Breaking News 00:00:37 HALLOWEEN BLITZED- brought to you by Lows Business Department Store LLC 00:07:33 HOW DID THEY MISS - THE HALLOWEEN THAT ALMOST WASN’T? - and kids love Taxi 00:13:29 THAT ‘70s CAST - dressing up your network stars 00:22:27 NOT DIGGING THIS PLOT - and maybe that’s the wrong protagonist 00:31:59 CONJOURING YOUR DEMON-GRAPHIC - and an unintentional plot line 00:37:33 WHY AM LEGION? - hodgepodge, repetition or sincere 00:47:07 THE NOSTALGIA THAT ALMOST WASN’T - aka the Night Bob Canning Saved Nostalgia 00:52:09 CLOSING - contacts, plugs and no catch phrase For full show notes visit www.nahpods.com.

    GLORIFED RERUN: HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS

    Last week Bob and Tim spun some controversy with conflicting takes on Pearl Jam’s Vitalogy. So to cool things off, and with no actual related segue between the two topics, they are reposting this cool episode about horns, harmonicas and maybe more horns. Its an album by album analysis of one of the biggest draws on the 1980s... Huey Lewis And The News. And even 1991's "Hard At Play" got a listen. Yes. They listened to "Hard At Play."

    PEARL JAM: VITALOGY

    Bob and Tim don’t always have to agree. In fact, it often makes for a more interesting podcast. And while they have both proclaimed a fandom for Pearl Jam, this listening party of their third album got a bit heated. Who loved it? Who loathed (parts) of it? And what does it all mean for their '90s credibility? Hear a divisive discussion on an overly packaged disc that did not include the dance hit "Vibeology." It's Pearl Jam's 1994 VITALOGY (look THAT word up). 00:00:00 PRE-SHOW PRATTLE - note-taking practices 00:00:54 THE CD IS NOT ….
