We wanted to continue the tradition of having our December instalment of We Have A Commentary deal with an album well outside of Our Thing, and loved the idea of doing a “Weird Al” Yankovic LP. Al’s been a huge influence on our lives and cultural tastes from a very young age, so the only question was which album we’d discuss. We turned things over to our Patreon backers, who selected Al’s third record, 1985’s Dare To Be Stupid. It’s an end to end burner and gave us all sorts of opportunities to discuss both the minutiae and the broad strokes of what’s made Al such a beloved and admired figure to us and so many others. As always, you can rate and subscribe on iTunes, download directly, or listen through the widget down below.
