THE BROUHAHA: Beastie Boys Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

A look at the 10 songs that were most important in shaping the Beastie Boys' career.

Looking back on 35 years of the Beastie Boys' zero-to-hero sophomore album, Paul's Boutique, we count down our 10 favorite songs and close out the festivities by speaking with Matt Dike's childhood friend, Wayde Alfarone.

The host of The Brouhaha, Jim Shearer (that would be me writing in third person), takes a trip down memory lane and attempts to log all of the Beastie Boys live performances that he's witnessed in his lifetime. Fortunately, he saw them so many times it will require an additional episode, hence this one being called "Pt. 1."

Everything you ever wanted to know and more (including some never-before-revealed "dark secrets" and a few off-the-wall theories) about the Beastie Boys' classic 1992 album, Check Your Head.

Jim Shearer and former Oscilloscope Laboratories Sound Engineer, Andre Kelman, listen back to Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 2 and give their hot takes, commentary, and insight 10 years after the fact. (Actually 11 years after the fact, but who's counting?)

Andre Kelman, aka "The Prince of Sides," talks about scoring a sound engineer gig at Oscilloscope Laboratories in his early-20s. Andre also dishes on what it was like working on Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 2, recording sessions with Kanye West and Jack White, the lost Beastie Boys' track "Bundt Cake," and, obviously, his knack for always ordering up the perfect side-dish (hence his royal nickname).

Paco, aka Corduroy Frames on Instagram, talks about his Beastie fandom as well as the mammoth undertaking of stocking up on craft supplies and attempting to do a homemade, frame-by-frame, stop-motion animation remake of the Beastie Boys' 1994 classic music video, "Sabotage." What inspired this madness? How long will it take? What will he do when he's done? Find out now! #HesCrafty

Even though I'm ride or die Check Your Head, I've said on multiple occasions that valid arguments could be made as to why Ill Communication is the crown jewel in the Beastie canon. Today, I finally do it: I pit Check Your Head and Ill Communication against each other in a battle for B-Boy studio album supremacy.

Jim chats with Beastie Boys super-fans, Jenna and Jim, about their respective passion projects. For Jenna, it's Beastie Boys Shots, a must-follow on Instagram that highlights both obscure and iconic Beastie Boys' photo sessions throughout their career. For Jim, it's his Sure Shot Beastie Boys group on Facebook, that is currently planning a very special event happening later this year. How did they get into the Beastie Boys? What are their favorite albums? How good are their trivia skills when put on the spot? Find out now!

The Phuncky Feel One, B-Real from Cypress Hill, talks about touring with Beastie Boys, what it was like to work with Pearl Jam and Sonic Youth on the Judgment Night soundtrack, taking a pass on the beat that would become "Jump Around," the future of hip-hop groups, and what to do when "the shit" actually does goes down.
