Beck Did It Better

We are talking about Coats of Many Colors and we become a great Dolly Parton podcast when we talk about her 1971 breakout hit. We learn more about Aaron, talk about driving across parking lots, and getting turnt up for Halloween.  Then we have a serious conversation about reflecting on the tone we use when someone makes us dinner and we harass them.    Then we hit the best songs inspired by the go...

Listen to the other version if you do want baseball.    This week we become the best Tracy Chapman podcast as we talk about Fast Car, the best pop vocals of all time, our driving, and everyone's favorite: Deviled Eggs.    Then we chat Chapmans amazing start, metoric rise, and how...

I would like to report a crime. That this is so low on this list! (High number)    We listen to folky Bob Dylan and it whips ass! Before we become the 1 millionth podcast to (barely) talk Bob Dylan we have a few other very important things to talk about.    We talk gambling, the death of Single Russell, we get a voicemail about Taylor Swift, and Matt and Rob's time in the city.    Then we get into...

Hello, one more ep for D'Angelo but as I was listening to this, I realized what a canon episode this is. Shoplifting from the airport, going to watch the State of the Union Address, plus a Big Bopper call. I also left all of Russell's original notes in the episode because they are brilliant.      We are the world. We are children. We are the ones who make the best podcast about D'Angelo and the 18...

Reposting this episode for D'Angelo, who passed away this week. The legendary Neo Soul singer make music and music videos sexy, but more importantly, he made Aaron talk about hanging his clothes up to dry (in his house!?!!  What is this dumb podcast?

We also explore the...

Hey... come on in, sit back, and take your socks off and enjoy the Pink Floyd album you have never heard nor heard a song off of.    This is the episode where someone took 100 mg of the limitless drug and decided to host a podcast. We visit   iwaspoisoned.com.     and figure out the worst place to get tilapia before our flight to Chicago, find a new kind of Cheerios, and we are on a diet so we wil...

We know you like it extra SLOPPY.    The first 25 min are the worst show we have ever done. Then Aaron saves the day.  We mostly come up with things to tell Aaron later like Maxim magazine, our fantasy teams, and the Charlie Sheen documentary. Aaron talks carpooling, sloppy joes, and we find out how much beef jerky is in our houses... Rob talks about dispensing justice, the career of Mark Mothersb...

Mittens! Mr. Whiskers!  No! Superfan and smart music guy Magic Mike joins us to talk practicing piano, Elton John, and what exacty is going on with all that milk in Russell's fridge.  We talk golden girl mythology and the Pearl Jam/ Magot Brain mashup we have been waiting for.  Russell is on fire at his conference and Aaron is back on his shit.  Finally we talk about weekend at Bernie Taupin's and...

Thanks to everyone who came out to talk about Russell getting spanked, the funniest raps, and how many people could we really marry?  Raise a glass of squash juice, as we listen to the beginning of pop punk, and talk about the shortest songs ever.  Next week, we'll talk Elton John and Honky Chateau.    Beck Line is 802 277 BECK

We can't get together to record due to the summer being over and everything happening at once so we got together with our good friend Jon and talked a little Minnesota State Fair because Johnny Cash is the first person to ever sell out a concert there!    Listen up! This ep is funnier than I thought and has an all time "next album" joke that won't make you mad you stuck it through to listen to it!...

We are taking a drive down the boulevard as we become the best podcast about Green Day and American Idiot. We are talking the Miami Heat, the WNBA, and Aaron drops a bomb on us. It turns out kids love Green Day, we talk driving tests, and the fun of writing notes to bad parkers.    Russ puts his relationship on the line for records and we talk about Green Day's comeback album "American Idiot" and...

We become the best podcast about Sade (the band) when we break down the album Love Deluxe and look at the timeline of how this album came to be known as one of their best.  We also hear about Aaron's juice trips again and whats on the Radio, Russ gets big timed on his date, Matt gets down and dirty at the record store, and Rob gets big timed even more.  INTERESTING  We also talk sports memories an...

I am 45 years old.  We are now the best LL Cool J podcast and we are talking about the GOATs 4th album Mama Said Knock You Out. We discover that this is really a love album, an album about how much this guy loves food. From Candy Bars to Cereal, LL  was starving when he made this album. ...

With the passing of Metal legend Ozzy Osbourne, we felt it was fitting to release an old episode where we listened to one of the first metal albums ever "Paranoid" by Black Sabbath.  We recorded a little intro after our last episode but this episode is chock full of goodies from 2023. Russ does a parody song, Russ looks for a missing car, Matt talks Minneapolis concerts, and surprise surprise, Rob...

Hey folks,  We are back talking about Kanye again, but we also have some fun. We are talking songs with more than one horn, keeping track of our IDs, and talking about Nerd Clusters for longer than I remember.    We discuss Kanye and who this album influenced and the run he was in while also acknowledging he is a real problem overall.   Next week we are talking Cocteau Twins and Heaven or Las Vega...

I used Chat GPT to summarize this. It makes you appreciate Russ because this sucks. We will be back next week.   We’re taking a break from recording, but we’ve got a classic episode of Beck Did It Better ready for you — perfect timing, because on this date in 1995, TLC’s “Waterfalls” hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and dominated the charts for seven weeks! In this hilarious music podcast e...

Listen, we are doing Odessey and Oracle by the Zombies and it is basically like paul macartney wrote each song.

Gimme fuel, gimme fire, gimme the best podcast about the Velvet Underground and the 242nd greatest album of all time, Loaded.   Before we get to the album, this episode dishes up 11 splendid servings of good vibrations when we discuss our favorite Beach Boys songs and Marky Mark.

Listen, For some of us, the summer is a time where we can get that work done around the house that we need to. For some of us, it gets busy on the weekends so we can't record.    In either case, we wanted to honor Sly Stone and Brian Wilson this week by re releasing their episodes so this week is a    THESE GUYS DIED TRIPLE HEADER.  We will be releasing 3 episodes this week to make up for not actu...
