The Rocklopedia Fakebandica

This week, we mark the coming of Ramadan by doing what three old white guys do… we act like we know what we’re talking about with respect to Islam. At least you’ll learn about Taqwacore and hear K'naan rap some of Don Dellilo's dope rhymes.

On this episode of the show, Alan is on a break and Charles and T. Mike also take a break—a commercial break. In light of the big game last week, we're talking about some big fake bands coming out of the advertising industry. 

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.
