It's the very first episode of Tonight's Musical Guest, Today! Hooray. This is the podcast where we discuss the cultural memory and career arc of bands and artists through their late night tv show performances.
Alex and Jon take some time to explain who the hell they are and why they started this show before jumping into their very first band: Weezer! The guys discuss the group's iconic performances of Undone on Conan and Say It Ain't So on Letterman before dealing with the ups and (mostly) downs of the next 28 years of the band. But what was it like to play foosball backstage with Weezer in 2002? And why did they play a duet with ZZ Top in 2015? All that and more is answered on the debut episode of TMGT.
