The Rocklopedia Fakebandica

Hello world, there's a podcast we're doing... on The Partridge Family!  We look at the show, the band, the albums and that iconic bus.  This is one of the big fake bands in pop culture, so it's why we made sure to discuss them on one of our first 111 episodes.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Ramones' debut album, we find fake punk rock bands and musicians from A to Z.

The Rocklopedia Fakebandica talks record stores again because the geniuses behind Record Store Day can't just put their celebration on Rex Manning Day.  We look at Hearts Beat Loud with Nick Offerman, and discuss whether Logic's movie Paradise Records even counts as a fake band movie.

We celebrate our favorite holiday by analyzing the movie Empire Records, and then we decide the show isn't long enough and we add in every version of High Fidelity too.

On this episode, we revel in the glory that is 1980s TV and remind the world about the fake band that was supposed to turn around an entire network.  

The Rocklopedia Fakebandica tries its hand at playing the board game Hi-Fi.  It goes as well as you might expect.

The Rocklopedia joins a cast of thousands at Podcasthon.org, a weeklong collaboration between podcasts and the charities and nonprofit they support.  We're celebrating Student Diplomacy Corps (https://sdcorps.org/) and talking fake bands that might be near the incredible SDC offerings.

You asked for it, you got it!  We discuss three relatively new animated shows that are smart and kid friendly and chock full of fake bands.  From Steven Universe to Twelve Forever to Regular Show, we leave no stone unturned in our quest to find all the fictional musicians we can.
