220: Cheap Imitations - Weird: The Al Yankovic Story/24 Hour Party People

When a "Weird Al" biopic was announced, the BaaM crew knew right away that we would need to cover such a monumental cinematic event. Now that it's dropped, Joe recruited a longtime film friend, Sean McLain, to join us for a fun conversation about films that play fast and loose with pop music history, including a look back at 24 Hour Partly People, a film that seeks to convey the energy of the punk/post-punk/"Manchester" scene. Somehow we make it all work despite some technical difficulties along the way.
