Punch Up The Jam – Details, episodes & analysis

Y.M.C.A....an absolutely loony song. Yet also a generational anthem. And also, a red herring, because this episode is not actually about Y.M.C.A. This episode is actually about a shocking reveal that will change the future of this podcast and possibly the world. Goodbye, for now.  You can watch the video version of this episode HERE!

Evan & Andrew are joined by Ena Da to discuss the detestable but also detestably catchy song Sugar. There are just so many problems. Not least, how do we understand "sugar" and "red velvet" in light of recent illuminations of Adam Levine's idea of romance? More fundamentally, is Maroon 5 even still a band? Or just five guys cosplaying as a rock band while they sing along to Mike Posner studio tracks? And why are they giving themselves out as wedding presents to unsuspecting Los Angelenos? You can watch the video version of this episode HERE! Guest: Ena Da Walk-in music: 'The Door' by George Jones; 'Sugar Sugar' by Wilson Pickett; 'Take On Me' by A'ha.  Follow Punch Up The Jam on Twitter and Instagram Get the punch-ups for yourself and support the show on Patreon Like the show?

A red-eye flight?!?! FROM Atlanta?!?! Well those travel...EAST! Evan & Andrew wax philosophical about why The Chicks' "Goodbye Earl" demonstrably takes place in France, whether they love music too much or hate music too much, and the dumbest arguments they've ever had about songwriting during their last audio-only episode before Punch Up The Jam's big move to audio AND video next week! Andrew calls his shot early for the Punch Up and performs our intrepid hosts' first ever LIVE Punch Up. Along the way they blaze through some corrections and look back at the most romantic moment ever inspired by Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums List. Starting next Thursday, 10/13, you'll be able to tune into Punch Up The Jam video episodes (in addition to audio) via The Gregory Brothers YouTube channel! Walk-in music: ‘Papa Was A Rolling Stone' by The Temptations; 'Waterfalls' by Paul McCartney.

Eagles AND the return of Miel's Dad Jim? A TWO part episode of a very much one episode podcast?! No DEMI!? Recorded...on the ISLAND????? WHAT is HAPPENING?! A lot, explained in episode but in a nutshell: there's a two-week gap between end of frontloaded studio episodes and the last two live episodes together. Miel will be continuing the podcast (!!!) and there will be tweaks to the show after Demi's departure, not reflected in this interim two-parter. So if you like an informative episode, the warm smell of colitas, and the entire history of EAGLES (no the???) straight from a former industry hot shot, enjoy!
