I'm joined by Eric Notarnicola to talk about the new and very last song by The Beatles!
You can also consider this a (final?) episode of Please Please, Let It Be!!
It's a little rough around the edges as we want to capture our immediate reactions today, so we just jumped on zoom and started chatting.
Peace and Love Peace and Love!

Tim gave his Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein movie recap, and we witnessed the world premiere of the final Beatles song "Now And Then." PLUS a Trinity only second half with commentary on the new Beatles tune, more of YOU on zoom and the hotline, and a deep dive into Steven Curtis Chapman.
Go see DJ Douggpound open up for Eric...

2023-11-02 15:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostThe second leg of the tour is complete! As far as my performance goes, Pittsburgh was my second favorite. I felt loose and the crowd was awesome. I learned a trick: have my glasses fall off, this makes the crowd a bit blurry and that helps me focus and be funnier.
Eric’s show was a bit different. He has his friend Kyle Bastic co-host with him as “Reese Witherspoon.” That character goes all the way back to the 2023-11-01 23:15:14 +0000 UTC View Post

2023-11-01 15:00:19 +0000 UTC View PostDetroit was the most unhinged show so far, at the end, hordes of people stormed the stage and almost started destroying the set. The stage was low and there was no barricade, so that probably had something to do with it. Our driver even went out there to help with security! I don’t have any photos of that moment because I was on high alert, wondering if I should grab my laptop and run for safety. Everything simmered down eventually and there were no big issues. The local celebrity was a rap...

A bunch of people were fishing in the river behind the skatepark. When I was a kid I witnessed my uncle catch a coho salmon and club it t...

What the hell is The Joel Hoel? The Joel Hoel is Vic Berger's deep dive into the albums of Mr. Billy Joel to determine why he's one of the most popular musical artists of all time, yet also one of the most divisive. He is joined by his co-hosts Tim Heidecker and Doug Lussenhop.

2023-10-21 22:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostAustin by far is the best city in Texas I’ve been to. Always pretty fun and it’s got a funky vibe that you know I like. The locals seem to complain about the recent influx of new residents and high prices though. Hey if your city is cool, people will want to move there. Should have kept it weird!

I had a lovely night doing my thang up here at the Verdi Club to help celebrate 25 years of McSweeney's. Had a nice lunch with Dave Eggers, who I've admired for so, so long and have known sporadically through the years but has been much more in my life since I wrote him asking for some help in putting out the tour diary. I was the evening's entertainment so I had a lot of time to fill. And I'm no...

Played San Antonio last night. The venue was outdoors and the weather was good. My only complaint is the backstage bathroom. The stalls are right there in the room, so if someone needs to go, there they are. Are you kidding me?

By the time it came to do the show, I had decided that I would not put too much focus on it... I didn't want to put Mike in an uncomfortable place and I really felt like we were better off just adding a little levity to the week for a few hours. None of this was really discussed amongst us, but I think that may explain some of the extra silliness and giggly behavior. It was so nice to just joke around a bit.
