You may know that Liz from creating the hit Netflix show "Dead To Me" but did you know that her new Netflix show premiering this Thursday, "No Good Deed" is the third in her run of three-word, turn-of-phrase series'?? And speaking of TV shows, the trio get into their all-time favorite TV show theme songs and as a surprise to no one, Vanessa sings a lot of them (as does Liz. Jonah, less so.)

    Remember The Nightmare Before Christmas? (with Billy Martin of Good Charlotte)

    Vanessa and Jonah are thrilled to welcome graphic artist and Good Charlotte guitarist Billy Martin to the podcast this week. We get nostalgic right off the bat, talking about how Jonah wrote the first ever cover story on Good Charlotte back in 2002 and the time Jonah and Billy spent together on the Vans Warped Tour back when they were very young adults! We also get into Billy's love of Silverchair, what it was like being a great artist in high school and why Billy never felt the need to prove how "punk" he was... mainly because he was busy listening to Disney soundtracks instead of D.O.A. In that spirit, we take a deep dive into Billy's obsession with "The Nightmare Before Christmas," why he decided to get the artwork from the film tattooed on his arms and what made Tim. Burton's aesthetic so memorable. (Jonah also admits walking out on the film as a teenager, which in retrospect wasn't a great move.) Finally we play a round of YESTOLGIA OR NOSTALGIA where we discuss the new Transformers film, the return of Tiny Toons Adventures and Old Bay-flavored Goldfish crackers. Make sure to visit Billy's site if you want to learn more about his art and music!

    Remember Karaoke? (with Bishop Briggs)

    This week on the podcast, we are coming correct with musician Bishop Briggs! We discuss what it was like growing up in Hong Kong, having the legal name of Sarah McLaughlin and Bishop's adolescent obsession with emo music. We also dig into her karaoke stories, explore why "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a solid choice and discuss our shared joy that the app Shazam exists and works most of the time! Finally, we play a round of LEGIT MOAN OR UNNECESSARY GROAN where we chat about the merits of marriage counseling, customer service complaints and if doctors should be including stamped envelopes with their bills. Don't forget to check out Bishop's new album "Tell My Therapist I'm Fine" (hopefully coming to HitClips soon) and catch her on her headlining tour this March!

    Remember Childhood Pets? (with Ayden Mayeri)

    This week the Bayer siblings are thrilled to have their friend, hilarious actress and absolute sweetie Ayden Mayeri on the podcast! You may know Ayden from her genius portrayals of characters such as Beth Ann McGann on "I Love That For You" and Sam Judlow in "Mr. Throwback," but did you know she was in a childhood band called X-Cetera that's gaining popularity... now? Plus, after being excluded for years, Vanessa and Jonah finally have the chance to be in their high school's Hall of Fame... but will they take it? And along those lines, will Ayden ever be written up in one of her local newspapers or will they continue to snub her? Plus, we get into favorite childhood pets! Ayden talks about many of her favorites from birds to hamsters to cats, some of whom murdered each other in cold blood?! And in a rousing game of CHANGE.DORK, the trio discusses petitions for plane food insights, a Steph Curry three-dollar bill, and a keto Domino's pizza. So check out this wonderful episode: Listen to it, enjoy it, tell your friends about it, X Cetera!

    Remember Skateboarding? (with Atom Willard)

    This week, we could not be more thrilled to welcome our old friend Atom Willard to the podcast. You've seen Atom behind the drum kit for acts like Alkaline Trio, Against Me!, The Offspring, Social Distortion and Rocket From The Crypt, but have you heard him tell dad jokes for an hour? We didn't think so. Don't worry, we get into the early days when Atom was just a molecule and discuss playing MTV's Spring Break in 1994, how Atom's coordination skills helped in gym class and why he stopped riding motorcycles for good. We also discuss one of Atom's other passions, skateboarding, including the time that his parents built a ramp for him in his driveway. (Which is almost as cool as our parents letting Jonah fly a pirate flag in front of our house in the suburbs.) Finally we play a round of YESTALGIA OR NOSTALGIA where we discuss the return of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, The "Mikey Likes It" Life Cereal Kid and the recent Sex Pistols reunion. Plus, did Vanessa and "Weird Al" Yankovic have the same Offspring parody idea? You've got to listen to find out!

    Remember Back To School Shopping? (with Punam Patel)

    Today on the podcast the Bayer siblings are thrilled to welcome their friend the wildly talented comedian and actress Punam Patel! You might know Punam as the hilarious Beena from "I Love that For You", but did you know she was very into the emo music scene growing up and has even moshed? Plus, Vanessa recants connecting with the middle school english teacher that inspired her SNL character "Mrs. Meadows" at her school's centennial celebration, and along those lines, the trio talk about how they would each behave if they were a substitute teacher in order to get respect from the students. Plus, Beena takes us through her school style journey which taught her the valuable lesson of being able to find a chic outfit at any establishment. And speaking of skills, we discuss several life hacks including Jonah's idea to add cold pasta sauce to hot noodles. Does it work? You'll have to listen to find out!! (but no, no it does not.) Check it out!

    This week, the Bayer siblings are so excited to welcome actor and comedian Will Forte to the podcast. You know Will from "Saturday Night Live," "MacGruber" and "The Last Man On Earth," but did you know that he grew up eating a Sausage Cheese Zombie before early morning swim practice? On this episode we talk about Will and Vanessa almost overlapping on SNL, the current status of Battleball (aka Dodgeball) in gym class and Will's childhood hobby: Sports cards! We get deep into Will's incredibly valuable collection, why he continued to collect cards as an adult and how he's been able to use his passion to benefit charities. We also play a round of YESTOLGIA OR NOSTALGIA where we discuss the return of Sour Altoids, the "Scary Movie" franchise return—and who wouldn't want a Hot Coca-flavored Chips Ahoy! cookie?
