Episodes

61 - Raise Your Glass
February 11th, 2022 | 39 mins 25 secs
alcoholism, panty snatching, party crashing, peer pressure, pink, raise your glass, the joker
Marc and Seth Raise their respective Glasses to the best panty snatcher of them all... Pink! On this episode, listen as she lures all of the miscreants of the world into non-stop drinking and wishing for them to just freak out (whatever that entails.)

60 - Who Made Who
February 3rd, 2022 | 41 mins 21 secs
ac, ac/dc, coke binges, dc, robot overlords, shitty directing, stephen king, who made who
Seth and Marc talk about the title track of the soundtrack to Stephen King's coke-fueled directorial debut AND finale Maximum Overdrive. It also asks one of the dumbest faux philosophical questions of our age: Who Made Who? Listen to Marc's Elmo version of Brian Johnson as the guys try to figure out what the fuck is happening here.

59 - Shake It
January 27th, 2022 | 48 mins 32 secs
metro station, necrophilia, quid pro quo car rides, shake it, that cyrus guy
Seth and Marc bring in good friends Rachelle and Daisy Caplan to dismember the lyrics to Shake It by Metro Station. Is it possible that this song is about necrophilia? Withholding a safe ride in exchange for sexual congress? We think it's quite likely. ALSO! The thrilling story of the band name!
-
58 - Stupify
January 20th, 2022 | 36 mins 24 secs
disturbed, fuck, poor spelling, rock, stupefy, stupify
It's hard for us to give just one... FUCK about this pile of shit. Are David Draiman and Co. using antisemitism as a way to push a terrible song? I would say quite possibly. Lyrics that are supposedly about his relationship that was soured due to his Jewish upbringing but sounds more like just a shitty nu metal song with terrible lyrics. Judge for yourself.
-
57 - Rebel Yell
January 13th, 2022 | 46 mins 54 secs
angels, billy idol, horny angels, rebel yell, slavery as it pertains to bdsm
You wake up in the middle of the night. The room is pitch black. Is that the sound of an angel pumping on your floor? Seth and Marc throw on the lights and take a look at the atrocious lyrics behind yet another horny Billy Idol song..... the man who will do whatever he needs as long as it doesn't mess up his hair.
-
56 - Zoot Suit Riot
January 7th, 2022 | 49 mins 31 secs
american racism, blow daddy, cherry poppin' daddies, downtown la, pachucos, racism, zoot suit riot
Seth and Marc crack open the ancient tomes and give you a bit of a history lesson as they school you on the REAL meaning of Zoot Suit Riot. Then, they go over the shitty lyrics of the real song and talk about how singer Steve Perry (Steeve Perry) didn't really seem to care about what really happened or to let you know... just to use that catchy title. Blow, daddy!
-
55 - Do They Know It's Christmas?
December 31st, 2021 | 42 mins 55 secs
band aid, do they know it's christmas?, live aid, rite aid, tone deaf, xenophobia
Being the UK's best-selling single of all time, you'd think more people would be appalled at the lyrics to Do The Know It's Christmas? Marc and Seth want to make sure they let a few more people know. Check out the song that raised millions for Ethiopian relief while simultaneously saying "What the fuck is Africa like and are these people even human?"
-
54 - Christmas In The Sand
December 23rd, 2021 | 34 mins 31 secs
beastiality, christmas in the sand, colbie caillat, horny, horny 4 santa, quim
HO HO HO! Seth and Marc discuss Colbie Caillat's song about getting heat exhaustion and hallucinating getting fucked by Santa Claus and possibly Rudolph: Christmas In The Sand. This song is a wild ride and a great way to get everyone horny for the holidays. Enjoy!
-
53 - Marry You
December 17th, 2021 | 36 mins 46 secs
bruno, bruno mars, coersion, insistance, marry you, mars, peer pressure
Seth and Marc are drunk in Sin City and they don't know if it's the look in your eyes... or maybe it's the dancing juice. What they DO know is this song is weird and coercive. A song about getting drunk with someone and not taking no for an answer that ended up being everyone's marriage anthem. Wild times.
-
52 - Whenever, Wherever
December 10th, 2021 | 49 mins 42 secs
anysunder, hereover, hips, shakira, thereunder, upover, whenever, wherehither, wherever
Seth and Marc invite Kyle Anne on to the show to go through the Shakira translated trainwreck that is Whenever, Wherever. We quickly found out why the title of the song is "Suerte" in Spanish because she says the word "lucky" NINE TIMES over 3 verses. Someone should look hereover and thereunder for whoever let these lyrics get recorded and hang them by their toenails.
-
51 - Graduation (Friends Forever)
December 2nd, 2021 | 48 mins 35 secs
bad everything, bad poetry, bad rhymes, friends forever, graduation, vitamin c
Vitamins S and M breakdown Vitamin C and her song Graduation that might very well have been written for graduating the 5th grade. A song so bad its own lyrics make the rest of its lyrics barely matter and has a rhyme scheme that rivals Dr. Seuss. Also, Canon in D.... in C?!
-
50 - Fat Lip
November 26th, 2021 | 54 mins 20 secs
41, being shitty, bullying, elder abuse, fat lip, sum, sum 41
Marc and Seth hold Deryck and Co. accountable for their shitty turn-of-the-century behavior AND eagerness to rub your face in it. Laughing at old people, calling people names, not showing up for people, and much more!
-
49 - Come On Eileen
November 18th, 2021 | 42 mins 10 secs
come on, come on eileen, dexys midnight runners, dirty thoughts, eileen, horniness, pretty redress
Seth and Marc don their best paperboy outfits and pull apart Come On Eileen to see what lurks inside! As surprising as it is, this song has some great lyrics. As unsurprising as it is, this song also has some incredibly horny lyrics complete with Dexys Midnight Wingmen egging the titular Eileen on. Prepare for British Poetry.
-
48 - I Wanna Love You Forever
November 12th, 2021 | 50 mins 13 secs
blowjobs, drops, edging, i wanna love you forever, jessica simpson, jesus christ, what is happening
Seth and Marc enlist long time friend Jamie Carmichael to help power through this sexually charged and possibly religious single from Jessica Simpson. Rife with, what might be, problematic double entendres and a music video that has nothing to do with the song at all, this song poised the would-be Mickey Mouse member for a semi-illustrious music career and getting shat all over by the press.
-
47 - Christine Sixteen
November 5th, 2021 | 36 mins 15 secs
christine, christine sixteen, gross ass, kiss, pedophilia, sixteen
Seth and Marc take on the Knights In Satan's Service with their pedophile anthem Christine Sixteen. Watching a teenage girl walk out of a school? Sure! Talking about her like she's a piece of furniture? Go for it! Making references to getting a handjob right of the rip? Do it, Gene! Strap yourselves in, folks.
-
46 - Monster Mash
October 29th, 2021 | 51 mins 32 secs
boris, boris pickett, chains, graveyard smash, igor the irresistable, monster mash
Seth and Marc have to call in an expert for this MONSTER-osity... Profiles In Eccentricity's own John Fahy has been hating this song since he was a wee lad. For a very spooky Halloween episode, we've brought him in to speak about the shitty sound effects, the stupid storyline, athe full length album, and much more.
