How Did We Get Weird with Vanessa Bayer and Jonah Bayer

Remember Muppet Babies? (with Tony Thaxton)

In this episode, good friend and amazing musician Tony Thaxton stops by the podcast this week. Tony is the drummer for Motion City Soundtrack and a podcaster himself, what can this guy not do?! We talk about our deep fondness of Muppet Babies and how we do not care for the reboot, especially the theme song. Diving into celebrity voice-over actors on the show like Howie Mandel and Dave Coulier and learning that Skeeter was not an original muppet. Plus discussion of celebrity albums and talking about performing with Weird Al Yankovic being a dream come true. They play "Back To The Present" segment where Jonah discusses the Cleveland Mosh Line and how it was meant to resolve pit fights and keep it safe, Vanessa talks Swatch Watches and all the styles they provided for everyone and Tony would like to bring back non-singer celebrity songs to the radio.
