62. Marijuana, Band-Aids as Fashion, Yosemite Sam Mudflaps (w/ Efrem Schulz)

Every Damn Thing

Phil and Jake witness the triumphant return of Efrem Schulz-- frontman for Death By Stereo, Voodoo Glow Skulls and Manic Hispanic-- to rank marijuana, Band-Aids as fashion, and Yosemite Sam Mudflaps on the List of Every Damn Thing.

Find Efrem on Twitter (@Efbystereo) and Instagram (@efbystereo). He's been real busy with his bands lately.; here's a check-out list:

• Check out the Voodoo Glow Skulls new album “Livin’ the Apocalypse” and if you’re in Southern California get tickets to their October 22nd show (unless you’re reading this in the future).
• Check out Manic Hispanic’s new album “Back In Brown” and get tickets to see them play with FEAR on October 29th (again, it helps if you’re in SoCal and not in the future).
• And of course, check out Death By Stereo in general.

If you have something to add to the list, email it to [e-mail] (or get at us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook).

SHOW NOTES:

• “Weird A.I.” Yankovich is an invention of Beth, Phil's wife. He's an artificial intelligence that does song parodies.
• We get into a lot of hologram talk. Here’s a write-up of Jenni Rivera’s hologram’s appearance at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. And here’s some info on the upcoming ABBA hologram show.
• The Tehachapi Loop is popular with railfans like Jake.
• We discuss fake train tunnels, and hate it when this happens.
• Here’s the episode of Efrem’s podcast Into the Weeds featuring Tommy Chong.
• “Barroom Buddies” by Clint Eastwood & Merle Haggard is a real thing!
• “Drinkenstein” is a song written by Dolly Parton (the current #1 on the List of Everything) & sung by Sylvester Stallone. It’s from the movie Rhinestone which they starred in.
• We think we've gotten this wrong before in the past but for the record, Murphy Lee is not the guy who wears the Phantom of the Opera mask in the St. Lunatics. Murphy Lee and Kyjuan are the only members of the St Lunatics anyone can remember, and neither are the ones who wear the mask. That's Slo Down. He was a silent hypeman who ended up in a feud with Nelly because he felt he wasn't being paid properly.
• Here’s YouTuber Linzor explaining her Band-Aid fashion.
• Hatless Slash is actually pretty common.
• Efrem surely meant to say John Schnieder when he was talking about John Davidson.
• In looking for a list of the most iconic mudflaps we learned that people seem to go with unadorned mudflaps nowadays.
• The “Skeleton Dance” cartoon is a big source of trauma for Phil's son every Halloween and has been since he was a toddler. He prefers the Donald Duck cartoon "trick or treat".
