All My Friends Are Right Here 056 – Bands We Used to Love

amfarh-056

Weezer came out with The White Album last week, which has us reflecting on bands we used to love but no longer care about!  Why did our love fall apart?  Did we grow up?  Did the band change its sound?  Did they get political in a really weird way?

Also, how many times does a band have to tell you “We’re going back to our roots with this new album?” before you finally tap out?  And, who’s got the better lead singer turned comic-book-writer: My Chemical Romance or Say Anything? And speaking of Say Anything, why does Kia only like bands who are named after movies?

In the comments below, please tell us what bands you used to love that you’re indifferent about!

All My Friends Are Right Here 055 – EGOT Odds

image

When you’re talking prestigious awards, it doesn’t get much better than the EGOT — the quadruple crown consisting of an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony. Only a handful of artists and performers have ever pulled it off.

So, who is the most likely to join the hallowed halls of Whoopi and enter into this exclusive club?

On this week’s episode, the guys will compare artists who have three of the awards and determine who has the best shot at pulling off the EGOT. Along the way, they’ll ask difficult questions like: Should Elton John write a House of Cards spec script? Would Geoffrey Rush be a better front man for Thirty Odd Foot of Grunts than Russell Crowe? And why isn’t Lin-Manuel Miranda president yet?

All My Friends Are Right Here 053 – The Best of the Worst

amfarh-053

We make fun of a lot of people on ALL MY FRIENDS ARE RIGHT HERE, but that’s not always fair.  Most of our much-maligned creators have done good work.  And on this episode, we’re going to find the BEST OF THE WORST!

What’s the best Joel Schumacher film?  What’s the best Limp Bizkit song?  Why are all of Kia’s friends talking about “50 First Dates”?

Also, what “Full House” characters correspond to the characters in “Hamlet”?

Correction: I said Ben Affleck gave Matt Damon “Bourne Identity” because he had just made an amnesiac thriller.  It was actually the opposite.  Damon had just done “Bourne Identity” and was offered “Paycheck” soon afterwards.  Damon recommended Affleck take “Paycheck”.

All My Friends Are Right Here 052 – Planning Our Funerals

The name of the show is ALL MY FRIENDS ARE RIGHT HERE, but someday, all my friends will not be here.  Because they will be dead.

On this episode, we express our wishes for our funerals.  Our last wills and testaments.  What celebrity guest would we want to sing at our funeral?  What would it be like if Gallagher delivered our eulogies?  Do we want our wives or girlfriends to re-marry, and if so, is Taye Diggs available?

Also, find out how many times Richard has watched the entire run of Scrubs.  Spoiler alert: It’s more than 1 dozen, but less than 3 dozen.
