Mike (@TheGIGGAS) from Back to the Futurama (@backtofuturama) joins me for one last time in Season 1. This time, we’re talking about the fifth and final +44 single that, like many +44 songs, is probably at least in part about Mark’s feelings about Tom. Episode 153 – 155 Here’s the video…

Episode 152 – Wishing Well
I’m joined by Ben (@Ben_Etc) from Back to the Futurama (@backtofuturama) to discuss this song from Neighborhoods that was a lot of chorus, not a lot of verse, and not incredibly memorable on the whole. BUT Mark has an awesome pink bass, so. Episode 152 – Wishing Well Here’s the video that Ben…

Episode 151 – Wildfire
Welcome to the final week of BAYMI Season 1. All three of us (Colin (my guest (@colinmparker), myself, and the band (Blink-182)) think that this song is a return to Enema of the State form and it’s a very good thing. So good, in fact, that Colin and I are puzzled about why it was … Continue…

Episode 144 – Weatherman
Today’s episode is the last one I’ll do in Season 1 without a guest. I make an assumption about where the name came from and talk about just how depressing this song is! Episode 144 – Weatherman Here’s the best video I could find of +44 performing it. The bass is so low that it … Continue reading...

Episode 141 – Waggy
It starts with the mention of a belch and ends with some legitimately good relationship advice for the protagonist of the song. Elizabeth (@theloveliestliz) from Your Fave is Problematic (@podcastYFIP) joins me to discuss this song about an on again off again relationship! Episode 141 – Waggy...
-
Episode 140 – Voyeur
In the episode, I think I said that we only have two weeks left of season 1, but it’s definitely 3. It was late, so forgive me. This is an episode about an EXCELLENT song. Which is about something you shouldn’t do. Don’t peep on people. Do have songs with killer bass solos. Also included, …...

Episode 139 – Violence
Ben (@ben_etc) from Back to the Futurama (@backtofuturama) joins me to talk about this song that maybe doesn’t hold up on its own but it’s an excellent facet of this album as a whole! Also, there are two extended outtakes from this episode. One about Rammstein and one about Linkin Park, so be…

Episode 136 – Touchdown Boy
Here’s Blink-182 bringing the innuendo. The sports-related innuendo. Yeah. It’s exactly what you think it is. Which isn’t to say it’s bad! It’s just EXACTLY what you think it is. Where “Score” means sex and “Ball” means sex and “tight end” means butts and “wide receiver” means both butts and also...

Episode 135 – Toast and Bananas
Here is a song that, when I recorded this episode at 1:30 this morning, I said was quintessential Blink-182. I stand by that claim. This is one of the songs from Cheshire Cat that you can point to and be like “This band is going to be huge” Episode 135 – Toast and Bananas This … Continue reading...

Episode 134 – Tiny Voices
Aemyn (@aemyn) from the But Yeah (@ButYeahPod) and One Letter Better (@OLBPod) joins me to talk about more Box Car Racer songs, but this time we’ve definitely got it. We for sure know the one thing that this song is about….or maybe there’s a couple of interpretations… Episode 134 – Tiny Voices...

Episode 129 – The Party Song
Here is a song about sunglasses, but more than that it’s about wearing those sunglasses at a party, but even more than that it’s about going to a party and seeing someone wearing sunglasses, but more than THAT, it’s about going to a party and meeting someone at the party and hearing them tell you…

Episode 128 – The Only Thing That Matters
The last episode of my solo episodes of the “The” arc and we’re looking at a classic-sounding SoCal pop-punk song that maybe borrows a little from Reel Big Fish. But it’s still very good! Episode 128 – The Only Thing That Matters Here’s a video of the first performance of the song! And just…

Episode 127 – The Fallen Interlude
I thought this was going to be a quick episode (and it is), but there was a lot to talk about. So much so, that I added the tail end of “Down” to the beginning so that I could talk about all the stuff having to do with this short interlude! Episode 127 – The … Continue reading Episode 127 – The...

Episode 126 – The End With You
The “The” songs continue. This time I’m talking about this song that MIGHT be about the end of the world and MIGHT be about a break up and is QUITE POSSIBLY about both! Episode 126 – The End With You Transcript Week 26 Songs (Spotify Playlist) Running List of All the Songs (Spotify Playlist)

Episode 125 – The Country Song
Leon (@LeonHuxtable) from Yeah G’day (@yeahgdaypodcast) is back after being gone for something like 70 episodes! And we’re talking about what amounts to a filler track. But the joke’s on you if you decided to skip this episode (you aren’t reading this, but maybe a friend who DID listen to it will...

Episode 124 – Teenage Satellites
I may have been more enthusiastic about this song than I would normally have been because it’s a song that puts me in the mind of the end of summer and today is the first day of school in the county where everyone in in my house but me goes to a school to teach … Continue reading Episode 124 –...

Episode 123 – TV
I realized this morning that putting periods between the initials (“T.V.”) are crucial for the alphabetization making sense, but I just looked on Genius and Wikipedia and the periods aren’t there, so I won’t have them there either! I am joined once again by Ben (@ben_etc) from Back to the…

Episode 122 – Strings
On today’s episode, I have Mark lie down on the couch and I listen to his concerns about settling down with someone and I give him what I think is pretty good advice! And you are a fly on the wall of that session and also the session just sounds like a normal BAYMI episode. … Continue reading...

Episode 121 – Story of a Lonely Guy
I’m joined by Mike (@theGIGGAS) from Back to the Futurama (@backtofuturama) to talk about this song from TOYPAJ that I am constantly wishing was called “Short Story of a Lonely Guy” like he says in the song. If it does, we would have been doing this episode on 8/9 instead of 8/20! Episode 121 – …...

Episode 120 – Stockholm Syndrome
Today I am joined once again by Evan (@e_williamson93) from the Nostalgia Cops (@nostalgiacops) and Read Between (@readbetweencast) podcasts to discuss this song from the self/untitled album. This conversation was so good and it killed me to cut parts of it, but what was left is a very good...

Today, I have Ben (@ben_etc) from Back to the Futurama (@backtofuturama) on my fun Blink-182 discography podcast to talk about….….divorce……. Enjoy! Episode 119 – Stay Together For the Kids Here’s the video. It was banned from MTV because the wrecking ball was too similar to 9/11 and...
-
Episode 118 – Sorrow
I think this song might be the perfection of Box Car Racer’s sound. They achieved what they were shooting for with this one because none of it feels over the top and it also doesn’t feel like anything from Blink either before or after this album. Episode 118 – Sorrow Here’s a pretty cool…

Episode 114 – Shut Up
It gets really real on this episode. This is not a song I care for. But I will admit that it has grown on me a little bit over the last 17 years. But I would still rather listen to almost any other song on TOYPAJ. So, comment below 🙂 Episode 114 – Shut Up … Continue reading Episode 114 – Shut Up →

Episode 113 – She’s Out of Her Mind
Today, I welcome Mike (@TheGIGGAS) from Back to the Futurama (@backtofuturama) back to the show to discuss Blink-182’s most recent hit single. Neither of us really frames it in that way during the show, but it just occurred to me that that is what this song is. We discuss the song which is really...

Episode 110 – Roller Coaster
The most difficult thing about this post was figuring out whether to use “Roller Coaster” or “Rollercoaster” because I have the latter on my iTunes, but I see the former everywhere else. So it was a really tough decision, you know? Episode 110 – Roller Coaster Transcript Week 22 Songs (Spotify...

Episode 106 – Please Take Me Home
Appropriately, I was thinking some version of the title all day today because I hadn’t begun to edit today’s episode because we got back late from Hershey Park last night and I thought it would be a bad idea to try to edit an episode starting at 1:45 am. So I was antsy to get … Continue reading...

Episode 105 – Peggy Sue
When I first saw this song on the tracklist for the Mark, Tom, and Travis Show, I thought, “Oh weird. A Buddy Holly cover in the middle of their album.” Well, I was wrong about it being a cover, but this song is amazing. And I don’t think I realized how much I loved it … Continue reading Episode...
