The Rocklopedia Fakebandica

Join us on a speedrun through an alphabet of fake hip hop acts in movies, TV, albums, textbooks, and…police actions.

This week we celebrate Australia Day by going to where the women glow and the fake bands thunder. Join us as we get under 20th Century Oz, Garage Days, and The Sapphires.

Hey hosers, it's time to head back to the Great White North as we talk fake bands in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. 

This week, we celebrate Inauguration Day here in the US by giving 50% of the population exactly what they want: a little more information about Canada.  We’re deep diving into the Scott Pilgrim Universe, where we discuss his life, his loves, and the many, many fake bands.

We go classical this week with a look at PDQ Bach, his work, his legacy, and whether we should record a full episode just about him.

Once upon a time you dressed so fine/Listened to a podcast in your prime, didn't you? Sure you did--you listened to this week's show about Bob Dylan's fake band movies.

Join us as we end 2024 with a movie filled with sex and drugs and rock and roll, and bad decisions, and a distinct possibility that none of us makes it to the next year.  Should be fun. Also, we make bold fake band predictions for 2025!

We are deep, deep, DEEP in the holiday season right now. And while some of us were a little too Bob Cratchit-ty and wanted the time off to be with their families, Charles said no, let’s slap together a podcast with three random holiday movies with fake musicians in them. Here it is!
