  • Even Worse (Which is Good): I Think I'm a Clone Now

    Even Worse (Which is Good): I Think I'm a Clone Now
    Mar 27 2026
    What do you get when a 1960s teen love song, an 80s mall pop anthem, and Weird Al Yankovic collide? An identity crisis… with a killer hook.

    In this episode, we’re joined by Jeff with Two Effs from the Suggested Articles Podcast (yes, we have more than one Jeff on this show… which feels very on-brand for a clone episode) as we trace the evolution of I Think We're Alone Now. From Tommy James & the Shondells’ slightly rebellious original, to Tiffany’s glossy, mall-tour domination, and finally to I Think I'm a Clone Now—where things get weird in the best possible way.

    We break down how one melody can tell three completely different stories, why Weird Al’s parody works so well, and how a simple pop song turns into a surprisingly funny take on identity, duplication, and way too many versions of yourself.

    Come for the nostalgia. Stay for the clones.

  • Even Worse (Which is Good): You Make Me

    Even Worse (Which is Good): You Make Me
    Mar 13 2026
    Get ready for a wild ride on this week’s Even Worse! We dive deep into the chaos, charm, and unexpected joy of “You Make Me,” and trust us — things got even worse (in the best way) when Polka Bob stepped into the building.

    From off‑the‑cuff polka wisdom to the kind of tangents that only this show can deliver, we break down what went down, why it mattered, and how one quirky guest turned the whole vibe upside down. Expect laughs, genuine moments, and a reminder that sometimes the best stories come from the weirdest guests.

    Whether you’re a longtime fan of Polka Bob or just here for the chaos, this is one you won’t want to miss. Tune in, turn up, and let Polka Bob make you (laugh, think, and maybe question your life choices).

  • Even Worse (Which is Good): (This Song's Just) Six Words Long

    Even Worse (Which is Good): (This Song's Just) Six Words Long
    Feb 27 2026
    This week on Beer’d Al Podcast, Lauren and Russ dive into “(This Song’s Just) Six Words Long,” Weird Al Yankovic’s brilliantly minimalist parody of George Harrison — and yes, we manage to say far more than six words about it.

    Joining us is the effervescent (we stand by that word) UHJeff — aka Jeff Nucera — filmmaker, television producer, documentary director, and longtime member of Al’s extended creative orbit. Jeff’s film Tight & Nerdy is currently making the rounds on the festival circuit and has already taken home the Audience Selection Award at SF Indiefest (wowie!). When he’s not behind the camera, Jeff has spent decades working alongside Weird Al himself — from writing thousands of trivia questions for Al’s Self-Indulgent, Ill-Advised Vanity Tour to sorting fan mail, a role he’s proudly held since 2001.

    Together, we unpack the song’s origins, its place in parody history, and why a track built on repetition is still endlessly funny decades later. Along the way, we share plenty of laughs as we celebrate one of Al’s most deceptively simple comedic gems.
