12 MAY. 2025 · On today's new episode, the Bayer siblings are thrilled to welcome the hilarious Jillan Bell! They dive deep into community centers and Vanessa talks about a step class that was so popular at the JCC growing up, that it got one of Jonah's friend's mom's to show her true colors when she didn't get in. Yikes! Plus, Jillian gets into the sixth grade youth center dances that she attended every week and the very consequential last dance where there is a villain, but it's debatable who that is. And, Jonah schools Vanessa on The Spasmatics and the Jillian talks about the time she brought the show Rescue 911 into her real life. And along those lines, Unsolved Mysteries is back, but how do we feel about that? Vanessa also talks about the DJ at her Whirly Ball Bat Mitzvah party (correction: 7th grade was Bas Mitzvahs, not 6th, Vanessa!) and Jonah shares his dream of being introduced at the her party with Metallica blasting in the background. Finally, in a thrilling game of CHANGE DOT DORK, the trio debates the merits of the return of "Bless the Harts," Emilio Estevez being in a Psych movie (and they really get into Emilio's past), and ask, what is Teen Beach Movie and should it be played at Movie Night? And speaking of movies, be sure to check out Jillian's directorial debut, the wildly hilarious and heartwarming "Summer of 69" streaming now on HULU!!
5 MAY. 2025 · This week on the podcast we are joined by singer, guitarist and—as we find out on this episode—actor, Stefan Babcock of the amazing punk band PUP! The three of us get into his short-lived extracurricular activity as an actor, discuss the time that he almost got kicked out of his own concert, Jonah and Stefan talk about their shared insecurities as musicians. We also get deep into the Mighty Ducks Universe, why it was Stefan's favorite movie as a kid growing up in Canada and how Disney managed to brainwash an entire generation of hockey-obsessed kids. (Sorry, but the Anaheim Ducks just aren't as cool.) We also discuss other classic sports movies from our childhood and reminisce about the senseless violence in comedy films of that era. Finally in a round of CHANGE DOT DORK we review petitions about making moshing an Olympic sport, the potential return of Tim Horton's grilled cheese sandwich and tipping etiquette at the Olive Garden. Don't forget to check out PUP's brand new album "Who Will Look After The Dogs?" and catch them on tour this summer and beyond!!!
28 ABR. 2025 · This week, the Bayer siblings are thrilled to welcome the alternative pop artist and resident Gen Z representative, King Mala! We discuss what it was like growing up as a homeschooled kid in El Paso, the definitions of girl dinner/girl math and why riding in a self-driving car can be less stressful than dealing with a creepy Uber driver. We also get deep into the horror realm when King Mala discusses the 2015 film "The Witch," which had a huge impact on her and even influenced her new album. Finally, in a game of YESTOLGIA OR NOSTALGIA we discuss the reboot of "I Know What You Did Last Summer," the return of Lay's fried green tomato flavor and whether the world really needs a mixing bowl mash-up Blizzard from Dairy Queen.(Spoiler alert: It doesn't.) Don't be a boomer and forget to check out King Mala's new album "And You Who Drowned in the Grief of a Golden Thing" when it comes out on May 2nd!!!
21 ABR. 2025 · On today's new episode, Vanessa and Jonah are thrilled to welcome their friend Abbi Jacobson! The trio talk about spring holidays, from looking for the afikomen at Passover (Vanessa feels their family's game may have been rigged) to decorating Easter eggs! And remember being a kid with a signature book? Plus, Vanessa attempts to solve the mystery of whether Abbi is related to the Cleveland Jacobsons? And we get into the wild world of the mall, which leads us to The Body Shop, which leads us to the nostalgic favorite CK One perfume (cologne?) We reminisce about the amazing CK One ad campaign and wonder, did Melissa Ethridge do a music video to promote CK One or was that video of hot people climbing each other unrelated? And finally, in a rousing game of Change.dork, we weigh the merits of increasing the seasoning of Cool Ranch Doritos, getting rid of silent lunch, and changing the age limit for R movies. Be sure to check out this fantastically nostalgic ep! NOTE: Soon after we recorded Abbi figured out that the name of the Melissa Ethridge song in question is "Your Little Secret"!
14 ABR. 2025 · This week Jonah and Vanessa are overjoyed to welcome Blink-182 co-frontman Mark Hoppus to the podcast because we are absolutely feeling this episode! We discuss Mark's new memoir FARENHEIT-182 (which he wrote with our friend and previous HDWGW guest Dan Ozzi), his high school goth phase and his love of Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin's comedy series "I Think You Should Leave." We also get into Mark's experiences on the Warped Tour, which saw him befriending his childhood heroes and traveling for months on what has been dubbed "punk rock summer camp." (Jonah should know, he helped write the official tour programs.) We also get into the nostalgic nature of Blink-182's music from the iconic videos to performing on TRL alongside some of the era's biggest pop acts... and find out if Blink ever crossed paths with Creed? Finally, we play a round of CHANGE.DORK where we discuss Blink-182's potential Superbowl performance, if skateboarding on sidewalks should be illegal and collectively advocate for the return of Hot Topic retail locations. Do you REALLY want to buy a wallet chain without trying it on first?
7 ABR. 2025 · This week Vanessa and Jonah are THRILLED to welcome Jack Rooke- comedian, writer, absolute delight, and creator of the show Vanessa is obsessed with, "Big Boys"! We talk about Jack and Vanessa's recent brunch where Jack had chicken apple sausage for the very first time and then they ran into two cast members of Bravo's "The Valley" (can you imagine a better brunch?) Plus Jonah tells us about the time he accidentally went to Gloucester, and Jack tells us about the time he got his entire class to go to Shrek the Musical on a short trip to New York. And we dig into Jack's favorite movie, "Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion" and how much we love everything about it! And speaking Lisa Kudrow, Vanessa recounts the time she first met her and did her entire "Friends" stand up bit for her. Finally, we play "BACK TO THE PRESENT" and fondly remember Squeeze-It's, The Taco Bell Seven Layer Burrito, and Sunny Delight. Be sure to check out this delightful episode and to check out Jack's incredible show BIG BOYS! ALL 3 SEASONS ARE NOW STREAMING ON HULU!!
31 MAR. 2025 · On today's episode, Jonah and Vanessa are thrilled to welcome the hilarious Chelsea Handler!! You may know Chelsea as a comedian, tv host, New York Times Bestselling Author (check out her new book "I'll Have What She's Having"!) and advocate, but did you know she's the youngest of six siblings? And speaking of, we get into how she got birthday gifts for all of those siblings, plus a birthday gift fail that Jonah got for Vanessa once that was a tool to teach her how to work in comedy when she was already doing it? And we get into getting recognized in public in the least flattering ways possible, the time Vanessa almost interrupted Chelsea's dinner, and more! And in a rousing game of YES OR NO-STALGIA, we decide whether we're excited for the resurgence of Polariods, Pelmets, and Old-Timey Soda Pops! Be sure to check out this fantastic episode AND be sure to check out Chelsea's new special, THE FEELING, out now on Netflix!
24 MAR. 2025 · On this week's new episode, the Bayer siblings are overjoyed to welcome their friend Jaime Moyer to the podcast! Jaime and Vanessa reminisce about meeting at Second City Detroit and all the fun they had, and Vanessa asks: is there something in the water that makes Detroit comedians SO funny?? Plus Jaime recalls her days of working at a movie theater, and we get into our various adventures sneaking into movies as kids, or in Jonah's case, as an adult. And we talk about our favorite movie theater candy and Jaime and Vanessa introduce Jonah to the brilliant idea of putting candy into movie popcorn (or any popcorn) and sincerely hope he tries it soon! Finally, in a rousing game of YES OR NO-STALGIA, we debate the merits of the return of Golden Oreo Cakesters, S'mores Blizzards and Jolt Cola! So wake up and check out this fantastic episode!!
17 MAR. 2025 · Cuties alert! The Bayer siblings are thrilled to have their dear friend and absolute cutie Abby Elliott on the podcast today! Abby and Vanessa talk about their fun adventures at the SNL 50th Anniversary, from celebrity encounters to their red carpet go-to moves. And speaking of, Vanessa tells Abby how much better she is at looking cool on looking cool on a red carpet and at life in general? Plus they fill in Jonah on how spray tanning works and talk about the days of people going to tanning salons "to get a base" before tropical vacations. And they reminisce about the days we would spend hours and hours talking on our landline phones, to the point where we'd fall asleep while still technically on a call. And in a very amusing game of "YES OR NO-STALGIA", the trio discusses the return of Lisa Frank (yay!), Atari (okay!) and falling, not dropping, into the GAP (double yay?)

10 MAR. 2025 · This week, the Bayers are joined by drummer Jay Weinberg, who you have seen behind the kit of some of your favorite bands ranging from Slipknot to Suicidal Tendencies! Jay talks about being the son of Max Weinberg of The E Street Band and performing "Born To Run" with Bruce Springsteen at Giants stadium while Jonah and Vanessa's dad was trying to get them to take over his shrinkwraping company. (Max may have had a slighter cooler gig.) We also discuss Jonah's punk rock hall of fame status, the concept of creating your own fun (and t-shirts) as a young person and Vanessa finds an opportunity to do her stellar impression of the Boss! We also get into our topic, being scared of art, and discuss how the things that scared Jay the most as a child, ended up being his biggest influences from Metallica's "Enter Sandman" to horror movies like "The Ring." Finally, we get into a powerful round of YESTOLGIA OR NOSTALGIA where we discuss the upcoming "Cliffhanger" reboot, the return of Coca-Cola Orange Cream and the confectionary variant known as Milky Way crispy rolls. You can catch Jay all summer opening for Metallica with Suicidal Tendencies and for more information on him visit jayweinbergofficial.com.
