Episode 167: Light Up My Room It’s getting dark out there right now, but that is okay because my cohosts, my guest, and this song help to light up my room! Thank you for joining us again, David Kincannon! Covers Light up my room cover by cornbread red Appearance Ed on Donovan Wood’s “God Forbid” during pandemic. (co-wrote) Ed Robertson
This week’s episode is the longest yet. I mean, we have to sum up all of “Life” in a nutshell. That can’t be done quickly. Luckily, we have some pretty deep souls joining us this week, as JD and Nick from Barenaked Ladies Are Us decide, that even though they have finished all the BNL albums, they would come back
That’s right… we messed up. I missed a deep cut song and Trevor Cox was there to correct me, so he gets to come and discuss this song with us.
We discussed a song about drug dealers at a convenience store last week. This week we take a more positive view on life, as Mil helps us to reflect on the uplifting message from Kevin on this B-side in an era when B-sides no longer exist. Let There Be Light (non-album track) Top 10 non-album tracks http://getbarenaked.net/2016/10/bnl-non-album-tracks-10-of-the-best/ Appearances https://youtu.be/mfgJyTsmIfM Ships
Welcome to 7-11. How may I help you today? You want Barenaked Ladies songs from 7 to Y? I’m sorry. Disco music? Nope. It sucks. We only sell dope. Not what you are looking for? Well, I guess you can listen to us discuss this Rheostatics cover by Barenaked Ladies instead. Orginal by Rheostatics BNL cover Appearance Rheostatics – Whale
We have guests this week, and we don’t want them to “Leave”. Thanks for joining us, Chris and Ephraim from “Clothed Men Discuss Barenaked Ladies”. Such a fun discussion. Appearance Ed on Donovan Wood’s “Man Made Lake” during the pandemic (co-wrote)
This week we discuss not only a song but a movie! That’s right. Make way for the double team, it’s not a dream. The most amazing critique that you’ve ever seen, as we discuss the movie and theme song “Lazer Team” (that is not a misspelling). Lazer Team Theme
Wel wel wel wel welcome. Back to Barenaked ABCs. This week we discuss a kids’ song that wasn’t on the kids’ album. We are joined by E is for Erik Butterworth again. Tom Lehrer wrote for the Electric Company (example: Silent E –https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91BQqdNOUxs&ab_channel=EdgarAldrett
Aaron is sick this week, so we don’t have him. But Erik agreed to step in and help, since he has good bedside manner. One might say he is the king of it. So join Steffan, Erik and myself as we discuss “King of Bedside Manor” Appearances Ships and Dip 3 (Not the best but they are having fun, especially Tyler) King
Episode 158: Keepin’ It Real We should call this song review, “Keepin It On Track” because I try very hard to do that. This week is very religious based, but that is because of the song. I try to balance it out with the religious view. But really, we were just “Keepin’ It Real” with Erik Butterworth. What are those hidden verses? Appearance Session
It’s almost Valentine’s Day, but we are still talking about toys. I suppose toys are a part of Valentine’s Day as well, but that is different than what we discuss tonight with Tyler Boudreau. And those toys are never “Just A Toy” Appearances: A different version of “Break Your Heart”
Believe it or not, I have more than two friends. But this week, only two of them could make it: Jeff and Aaron. Which is coincidental, considering this week’s song is about three friends: Joseph, Dan, and Jillian. So join us for the rarity, found on only one live CD: Joseph Brown AppearanceBNL Tyler Stewart “Drums Chicken and Poop” https://youtu.be/Ees0BNNJVVQ
This week we have Trevor Cox rejoining us to discuss the introduction to the Holiday album: Jingle Bells Appearances Ed Covering “Distant Sun” by Crowded House on Bathroom Sessions

So instead, we just talk to you about the song “Jerome” Jerome Appearances What is Jerome? Is there really a sliding jail? Jerome’s Sliding
This week’s song is anything but plain. But does our panel think that life is better by listening to “Jane”?

Feel like 13 again, safer if we stay friends, No longer lawrence to your vivian., work and school,
That’s right. We are getting ready to put 2020 to bed and as we look back with hindsight, we review our regrets and our resolutions for next year. So join Tracy, Aaron, and Jeff as we discuss G-I (and not our personal GIs).
Merry Christmas, a late Happy Hanukkah, and an early Happy Kwanzaa to everyone. We will be back next week with our review episode, but for now, enjoy this BNL classic from their live performance in Portland, ME. It was a “never purchase”, so I think I am okay releasing this.
I have a new title. I was just elected the Wizard of Magicland. But if you ever wondered before who that is, well, I can tell you now that it’s only me. I’m the one and only. But this week, we are not the only podcast talking about this song. Our friends over at “Barenaked Ladies are Us” podcast are joining us
We’re at episode 150. Is there anything original for us to say? Or have we said it all before? I think we have an original take on this song, so we’ll prove Steven wrong, that it hasn’t all been done. And who better to join us on such a discussion than the pop culture anthropologist, Allison McBride? Appearance Title song
Sorry for that incredibly annoying screeching sound. I’m sure you were asking “Is a crow being strangled somewhere?” You really should have asked “Is somebody singing?” because the answer is “yes… it was me”. Luckily I don’t sing this week, but listen to us discuss BNL singing with Chris Hadfield, as we talk with writer/actor Jimmy Kustes. Live performance of ISS See
This week we discuss a song that is all about modern canine management. Don’t agree with me? Come on the show and show us you aren’t all bark, no bite. In the meantime, stop growling and listen to us discuss Invisible Fence. Acoustic Fake Nudes Spoken word Live on QTV 17:15 they play a demo of Invisible Fence that the
I know that the last couple of weeks our episodes have been spotty. It has been computer problems…. okay… the truth is that I only like to post intermittently. Which is good because this week, that is the song we are discussing.

Man, I had to get drunk this week to enjoy this song. But how did the other guys feel about “In The Drink”. We also ask Tyler Boudreau what he thought. This week’s discussion gets bloody. Appearance Let ‘Em In cover
You know what BNL needs. An Indy Car. And over the radio, they need to play one song. This week’s song. The whole race. That guy will drive so fast to get out of the car. But is that just from the monotony or because this week’s song is that bad? And does Ali McBride agree with us? Listen to
That’s right. We didn’t talk about this quintessential song enough last week, so we invited Steffan and Jeff to join us this week for their opinions. And since we didn’t have appearances last week, here are some: Appearances Intimate and Interactive https://youtu.be/Z-6aeP-H1fw House of Strombo after Junos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJlsCkNI2Ww Steven on QTV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxoUzbUJonI Behind the Vinyl (Ed and Tyler) https://youtu.be/mtpG9W8v1cE Behind
I wish that this podcast made me rich, but instead I get to talk about a band that is rich every week. And this week we have Blake Reilly to discuss this essential BNL song.
This week we discuss the multiple implications that could have been Steve Squared’s inspiration for this song. Is the singer questioning? Are you confused? As Mary says in JCS, “Everything’s alright, everything’s fine.” And hopefully you will feel the same about this episode! Stunt Demo version with a different second verse Live from Seattle on Au Naturale tour Video Tynyspencer Steven playing
Even though we are without Steffan or Jeff this week (and they are missed) we get back a long time co-host to fill the space in my heart. I’ve missed him, so, thank you for returning, Bobby to discuss this Johnny Cash cover.

So enjoy this show with our guest, Tyler Boudreau from “WIdlcat Minute” Cyndi Lauper Sufjan Stevens BNL might not be 4/4. Because this version is listed by Wikipedia as special because it

Welcome to… okay.. You know the rest of it. This week we have guest Erik Butterworth returning to discuss, at length (yes… really) the song “I Know”. Why?

I used to get self-conscious writing these intros. I worried that people wouldn’t like them. But I don’t get it anymore. So come hear what we have to say about this week’s song. Stop Us Bathroom Sessions Appearance
I’m not feeling very capable this week to write the intro. But I keep telling myself that I Can, I Will, and I Do. Although I’m not sure why I say the last part because it sounds pretty weird. But that is what this week’s song does to me. This week we are joined by the pop-culture anthropologist, Ali McBride!
Barenaked Ladies sometimes likes to state the obvious. And this week, we discuss them doing just that, in song form. Joining us is Marc from Ghostman Radio Podcast! Sorry about the audio.

Ok. I couldn’t come up with a pun to describe this week’s song. It’s too big a task. Some might say it is gargantuan. Or giant. Or ginormous. I can’t think of any other words to describe this task, so I’ll just introduce the song. This week we are talking about “Humungous Tree”. Humungous Tree Appearance Brothers Creeggan with Ed
Knock Knock. Who’s there? Barenaked ABCs with special guest Fully Clothed Gents, the premiere BNL-tribute band, and we are talking about “Humor of the Situation”.

I am in awe this week. It is coincidental that the month we have been talking about the Barenaked Ladies Variety Show pilot, Harland Williams agreed to join us and talk about all his projects. He is hilarious and please visit all the links below. Go out and buy his children’s books, his “The Cousins” album, his stand-up specials, and

Episode 102: Grade 9 “The Barenaked ABCs is an absurd podcast that reviews Barenaked Ladies songs. In an effort to sound more intelligent than they are, the hosts have arranged their list in an alphabetical manner, but most people think this is unnecessary because it leads odd combinations for irrational reasons.” That was the synopsis of the show that I

Before we discuss the good times, it is time to discuss “Good Times” by Barenaked Ladies and the Persuasions. We don’t have Aaron, but we do have Tyler Bodreau. So,
You know how we talk about “They Might Be Giants” a lot! Well, you’ve never heard us talk about them so much. This week Tracy crossed over to This Might Be A Podcast and talked “Meet The Elements” with Greg. It was a lot of fun! https://soundcloud.com/user-946961552/crossover-event-tmbp-59

I’ve always wanted to fly. But Ed. Well, even though he is a pilot, I guess his superpower would be “walking”. I’m not sure what that would look like,

I added Aaron’s thoughts on “Go Home” into the old episode, but if you just want to hear him, you can download this “fix” episode, which is just his audio.
Episode 95: Go Home We still don’t have Aaron. He decided he’s had enough of me and decided to Go Home. Michelle decided to Go Home this week too. Since we are without my compatriots, I have the boss of our home network, Blake Reilly. But don’t you Go Home. Unless you are on your way back from work. Then by

We were having major audio problems this week, so luckily we got this episode done in time. I would say with Four Seconds to spare. We are without Aaron and Michelle (except via satellite), but luckily we have Jeff Whitmire, straight off his album release, which you can buy on Bandcamp or iTunes (https://jeffwhitmire.bandcamp.com/album/deep-fried-superhero). I highly recommend you go out

Episode 80: The Flag I give up. I can’t figure out a way to introduce this week’s podcast. I am waving the white flag to writer’s block. Oh wait… nope. Writer’s block is two weeks down the road.

Episode 78: Falling for the First Time Help… I need somebody…. not just any body. You know I need someone…. wait. Wrong song. But thinking of falling reminds me of that song. Interestingly enough, I do discuss different Beatles songs with our guest this week, Jeff Whitmire! I am so happy to have him on and not just because we
I’m not going to write anything this week. Nope. I’m just going to fall back on my laurels and expect you to enjoy our podcast enough that you just listen to us anyway, as we discuss “Fall Back On”. It’s a weird week, as we don’t have Aaron or Michelle, so there is a lot of splicing and email responding.
This week’s episode discusses some very sensitive topics that are not recommended for younger listeners. Also, if you are triggered by discussions of suicide, eating disorders, or non-suicidal self-injury, we want to advise you that these topics are mentioned in this week’s discussion because of the song. We try to be respectful but also understand that just talking about these
We celebrate our 75th episode by changing everything. Why? Because the song tells us it did and as BNL tells us in a later song “It’s All Been Done”. But this week we aren’t discussing that. We are discussing “Everything Had Changed” with Bryan Ripper of “All About The Mouse” podcast! It’s a huge episode but we had so much
Episode 74: Every Subway Car Personally, I like Subway. Forget Jared, the sandwiches are great. And obviously Ed loves to have his sandwiches delivered directly to him because this week we discuss “Every Subway Car”. But did someone forget to tell me that Subway delivers? Ed knew about this project before I did. Weird. Video Appearances StArT Program Toronto

Do not answer the door unless the person gives you the passcode “Barenaked ABCs”. Your response should be “Snacktime!” If they respond with anything but “the best children’s album ever” (or if you see Arnold Schwartzenegger through
Not only do we talk about “Enid” but we also talk TO Enid. That’s right, Enid was nice enough to return to talk about her namesake song! We have Aaron back, but lost Michelle for the week. This is a super jam packed episode, so enjoy the whole thing! Video Appearances BNL on “House of Strombo” after their Hall of
Episode 71: Elf’s Lament Ever wanted to know what it sounds like when a person throws away their pride and humility? Make sure you listen to the end of this week’s episode. There is my lament about doing this episode. But first, listen in to hear Blake Reilly from several Filling The Void Podcast Network’s shows talk about the Christmas
Episode 70: Easy This week we are laying back and taking it easy (no, not the Eagles’ song) while Aaron continues to search for the Lost Jedi, Steven Page. Come on, Aaron. We are on Order 70 already. This should have been easy. To replace him, we have Enid… yes, that Enid… to talk about “Easy”. I know we make
It’s that time of the year again. Yep. Spring Cleaning. The Easter Bunny has destroyed our house and it really needs a good dusting anyway. Kevin is right. No one wants to stay in these dirty dusty rooms. So while we clean our houses and you clean yours, why don’t you listen to this week’s episode. Aaron is now on
Red Green would probably approve of today’s episode and song. We are talking about how to do open heart surgery using polyethylene coated pressure sensitive tape, and whether it is really a good idea. We have Aaron around for one more week as he prepares for his trip to find the rogue Jedi Steven. But we are certain that
Episode 67: Drawing I can’t remember the episode that we are discussing this week. It’s weird. I’m Drawing a blank. But BNL didn’t. We don’t have Aaron this week, but we have a special guest, one of the writers for Get Barenaked and Barenaked News, Mil Feirn. And they give an amazingly different view of Kevin and this song. Does
Episode 66: Down To Earth It is time for Order 66, bring all the Jedi back down to earth and bury them in it. Wait. Wrong situation. Sorry. That is the other part of our webpage. This is Episode 66 where we talk about “Down To Earth”. Aaron will be gone for over a month soon, so enjoy one of
We must live in the South Africa, because it is getting warmer, but it is Christmas time again. I’m not really sure how this works or why it keeps happening. I mean, I know life goes faster as you age, but this is getting ridiculous. Well, anyway, this week our “supergroup” discusses the BNL cover of the 80’s original supergroup.
Episode 64: “Buddy Holly” Sixty years ago, Buddy Holly, Big Bopper, and Richie Valens all died in a plane crash because Buddy wanted to get to the next concert quicker so that he would have time to do his laundry before the show. True story. It was the day the music died. And this week, is another week that the
Does that mean I can say whatever I want here because it is written, so it isn’t out loud? Well, this week we say a lot of things out loud. We talk about Grinning Streak quite a bit. No editing this week because whatever we said out loud will remain said. And make sure you stick around for the music
Episode 62: Melanie Doane Interview We are joyous to push off another song for a week so that we can talk with Melanie Doane, with whom the Ladies worked recently to raise money for the USchool charity. They recorded a song “Joy To The World” with the USchool students. This is an amazing charity and Melanie is an intelligent and
Episode 61: Deck The Stills We are all decked out for our Christmas party. Wait…. it’s March. Um… well…. Let’s march on with the episode anyway. Let’s discuss another Christmas song: Deck The Stills Appearance “Resist It” by Carole Pope with Kevin Hearn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpAMdke3_Xo (video) https://www.samaritanmag.com/cause-song/80065/carole-pope-kevin-hearn-resist-it-2018
This week we have the great Greg from “This Might Be A Podcast” where they discuss “They Might Be Giants” songs. That group Aaron brings up every other week. And this week we will be talking about the song “Daydreamin’”. No… not the Radiohead song, although I’m sure Aaron would love to do that. And not the Aretha song. And
It will be “One Week” before you get to hear another episode where we discuss a song by Barenaked Ladies because this week, Aaron and I had the distinct pleasure of talking with Susan Rogers, who among her many accolades can say that she co-produced “Stunt” for Barenaked Ladies 20 years ago. We were so enthused to have this opportunity,
Do you want to know what this week’s song is? Do I have your interest peaked? It’s not “Mystery”. It starts with “C” as we end with our “C”s. It’s Curious. And this week you will be curious as to where Aaron went, but he is just sick. But unlike the cat, curiosity didn’t kill him. Which is luck for
Christmas time is here. Listen to our cast and cheer. Oh that we… could always re… view Christmas songs all the year. Join us as we have such a deep cut this week that I had to run to the emergency room in order to seek help. A Barenaked Christmas 1991 (Fan Club CD, 4:39) with God Rest Ye Merry

Episode 52: Conventioneers Tonight we discuss lounge lizards at San Diego ComicCon…. or maybe it is just the song Conventioneers. We invite more people on the show (@WilliamShatner, @BenFolds) and discuss which BNL member we would have our one night stand with. Well, okay, the last one is a lie. Our significant others might not be happy with that last
Yes, you read that right…. and I spelled it that way on purpose. I may not know how to pronounce, but I know how to spell.

Episode 46: Care Less We hope that you care about our podcast. If you do, please let us know. This week it is just Michelle and I and we couldn’t care less where Aaron is, because he belongs here with us. But we make do without him and discuss two rare tunes by BNL this week. We dove deep deep
Happy Thanksgiving! Ok… we are a little early, but we are busy prepping for Thanksgiving here in America. So we got this one out early so you can listen to it while you are chopping your vegetables (unless you are in Canada, like our guest for this week, Justin from Monster Squad Minute). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBMxpDbp51A Appearance Ed Robertson talks about
Episode 44: Canadian Snacktime Trilogy: Part ii Popcorn Whatever your political affiliation, if you are a US citizen, go out today and vote. And while you are there, hopefully they have some popcorn. I’m not sure if today is Election Day in Canada, but we have our favorite Canadians, the people from Monster Squad Minute, back to discuss the second
Episode 43: Canadian Snacktime Trilogy: Snacktime It’s Halloween!!! And guess what we in the USA talk about at Halloween. SNACKS!!! CANDY!! And BNL music about Snacks and Candy!!!! NO Not Sex and Candy. SNACKS! As in Snacktime! And this week we discuss “Snacktime” with the guys from the Monster Squad Minute. That’s right. We talk with the Monster Squad Minute
Episode 42: Canada Dry I am American and wet because it is raining. In my part of the country… which is Maine. It is raining in Maine. Okay? And I hate October Rain. November, it’s fine because it is usually snow here. But October Rain stinks. It’s cold and drizzly…. okay. I need to get my head off the weather.
Episode 41: Call Me Calmly Call me hungry, call me busy, call me late for dinner, just make sure you call me calmly. Tonight we discuss a song that is rated XXX using rated PG language. Would I lie? We have no Aaron this week, so we have a “guest” read his review. And if you haven’t seen it yet,
Episode 40: Call and Answer You say it’s getting to the point where we are hitting our stride? Well, I say that BNL hit its stride with this song. Do the rest of group agree with me?

Barenaked Ladies
Episode 38: “Heal Thyself Part II Discipline” review We are showing we have no discipline as we take time away from our lineup to review Steven Page’s new album “Heal Thyself Part II: Discipline”, which came out Sept. 14. Should we trust Steven’s instincts or should we should discipline at the music shop? Listen in to find out. Next
Episode 37: Bringing It Home It sounds almost like a goodbye song title. We hope that it isn’t. This week we discuss the boys celebration anthem. In the middle, I post a clip of the song, with Ed’s vocals minimized to accentuate the new instrument. That is not how the bridge actually sounds. Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZTNLC-iHxI
Episode 36: Brian Wilson Are you reeling from the good vibrations from last week’s interview? I still am. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was one song where we all agreed on its merits? Maybe it’s this song. God only knows as we review Brian Wilson with returning co-host, Bobby. We are missing Michelle, but I still guarantee, this long
Steven Page has been writing songs for over 35 years. Most of his famous songs were done while he was with a previous group, Barenaked Ladies, a band that he wrote and played with for 20 years, a band that to some extent still defines how people see him and talk about him. I mean, look at my second sentence.
Interviewer: Steven, it is an absolute pleasure to be talking with you today, and that, to me, is a major understatement. Your music has entertained me during moments of joy and has helped me wallow in my sorrow and helped me with my stress during periods of darkness. Stunt came out during my Graduate program years and “Who Needs Sleep”
Pinch me! Tonight we don’t review a song. Tonight, I interview STEVEN PAGE himself!!! That’s right! We’ve had our questions and we had the chance to ask them. Thank you’s to Rey Roldan (@reybee), who gave me this opportunity; and to BNL ABCs cast for helping me develop the questions. Please go out next week and buy Steven’s new album,
Episode 34: Break Your Heart (with Blake Reilly) I’m a little late on today’s song due to an upcoming event that I hope you all enjoy (should be next week). I hope that it didn’t “Break Your Heart”. But we have Blake Reilly from “Clerks Minute” joining us today for a really fun episode that should rise your spirits.
Tonight we discuss “Box Set” with some Canadians, the men from Monster Squad Minute. So, this isn’t my best intro. Are you wanting me to go back and do my greatest intro? Is that all you want? I can’t be my best all the time. Some of these are just going to be mediocre. Hopefully, some day another label will
Episode 32: Born Human Aren’t we all born human? I suppose? Am I making a false assumption here? We are all born human, right? I don’t think we have any wolves listening tonight. But we do have a special guest, Saker from the “it’s All Been Done” podcast. How many possible theories about this song can we come up with?
You came BACK! You seem to keep doing that. And for that we thank you. This week we discuss an object that, if thrown right, keeps coming back. Welcome to “Boomerang” week. This week, during our Summer of Bs (#SummerofBs), we have another guest: Victor from Unofficial: Barenaked Ladies. We discuss “Where was Ed?” during our Summer of ’88 section.
Episode 30: Blame It On Me We have reached our 30th episode, and if you think that is a bad thing or if you think this episode is not good, you can blame it on me. After all, Bobby isn’t around right now and we don’t have any Milli Vinilli, and tonight it isn’t raining, so if you have to
Episode 29: Blacking Out I’ve been a little stressed lately. Okay, very. Some people compensate with Alcohol (not this week’s song). Sometimes they compensate too much and Black Out. But we don’t do that anymore. So instead we’ll discuss BNL’s song “Blacking Out”. We are missing Aaron, who is busy doing Time Travel. He stole the TARDIS, but we get
Episode 28: Big Bang Theory Theme My whole universe doesn’t revolve around the Ladies, but they are like the Sun. And tonight we explore an essential song in their catalogue. It was inspired by “Big Bang” by Simon Singh (https://www.amazon.com/Big-Bang-Universe-Simon-Singh/dp/0007162219/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1531441848&sr=8-1&keywords=big+bang+simon+singh) Official video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzhIfN4UQv8 BNL Rocks Red Rocks version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5x60kMCLnf0 Appearance: BNL in cartoon form on Odd

Episode 26: Beautiful What can I say about this week’s episode? It is pretty superficial at first but then it gets deep when we really delve into it. Will you fall in love with us at first listen or will you have to listen a few times before the full magnitude of the discussion becomes evident? We avoid man-splanning while
Episode 25: Be My Yoko Ono Welcome back to Barenaked ABCs. And a big welcome back to always friend, and automatic member of the podcast, Bobby. This week, we cover one of the most influential songs the band has ever created. And, just as you never knew what Yoko was going to do next, we are very spontaneous in this
Episode 24: Bank Job Tonight we mug for the camera on a podcast while we discuss a bank job gone wrong. What would stop each of us if we committed a bank job? And like the bank robbers in the song, there is dissention in the ranks as we rank this song. Bank Job on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8dMIzfp8HM
Tonight’s song is not a song, but a Ballad. No, it’s not the Ballad of Plain D by Gordon Lightfoot. It’s not the Ballad of John and Yoko (but stick around for Beatles galore in two weeks). Nor is it the Ballad of Gordon and Lily. We are discussing Ballad of Gordon, which is actually a Public Service Announcement for FOX.
Episode 22: Bag of Bones ARGH!!!! We are being chase by BIG DOGS. BARKING DOGS! BITING DOGS! No time for an episode this week, so here is sound clips of us just running from dogs for an hour. I hope you enjoy our howls of pain. Seriously, we recorded an episode about “Bag of Bones” last week, so that will be
As you may have seen, we have spammers. This has just been a bad day. And coincidentally, that is today’s song. This week, we review “Bad Day” off “Snacktime”. I know some of us (ahem, not Tracy) have been harsh on this album so far, but maybe this won’t be a bad day for Snacktime. Tune in to see.
Welcome “back” to the Barenaked ABCs, where tonight’s song is “Back”, a B-side on the “Brian Wilson 2000” CD. We discuss this rare “B-side” and if it should have been more. “Back” – YouTube “video” of this song.

Tonight we are joined, or invaded, depending upon your point of view, by Michael from The “Weird Al”phabet. We had
