  • Pretty Stinking Majestic

    Not only the best Weird Al related podcast, but the only one that also tracks the elusive red rumped agouti

  • Been listening for ages. The content itself is nearly great. I finally must say that my main criticism is that the constant giggling and laughter gets a BIT grating & genuinely distracting at times (a personal preference, probably). Obviously I feel guilty for saying this because I know these are nice, passionate & wholesome guys and I think they can't tone it down.. but I also want to be honest. It's why I don't listen too often. You'll have hundreds of hours of that. Good interviews though.
