The Stickiest Music Podcast - Album ReBrews is a conversational music commentary podcast hosted by Sarah and Zac, two Chicago-based music lovers. Each episode we grab a guest co-host and pair one of their favorite albums with a (usually alcoholic) beverage, talk, drink, and enjoy the album together.

This small piece of auditory cinema was written by Zac, performed by Dan, Tommy, Sarah, with no prior reading of the script. 90% of the music and foley work was improvised by the cast members using a kalimba, ukulele, theremin, half empty tea pot, some squelchy stress balls, various clinky things, and the weird little mouth instrument that goes boing with you play it. Enjoy! Listen to Musicians Movie Club wherever you get your get your podcasts. and go listen to Tommy Kessler and Damager ASAP right now.

On this very special bonus episode, we're talking to the man who wrote 2,000+ songs about poop. You may remember Zac's "Songs about Illinois Cities and Towns" bit from a previous episode... which turned into us listening to poop songs written with our names... which turned into an incredible conversation behind those songs and so much more. Matt Farley of Motern Media sat down with us to talk about making silly art, TikTok fame, and, of course, poop songs. He's been making media over the past 20+ years and we only scratch the surface of the deep lore behind his work in this episode. World Motern Day is June 3rd!

We'll talk about Zac's dead fish, the Big Mouth Billy Bass, and being jealous of your partner's pet. Zac also introduces us to another Chaotic Playlist: GWAR-illaz. This is.... our most technically plagued episode, we had to restart the recording a bunch, props to Logan for making it sound coherent-ish. Charly Bliss's official website can be found here .

We talk about the origin and growth of Cockaholics, musicians who've blown up because of quarantine, and penis-related lyricism. We also play a game called "Death Grips or Meme Sound," it's exactly what you'd imagine. If you haven't already gathered from the title, this episode's EXPLICIT but also so funny.

Their lead singers are a parrot and two pit bulls, respectively. Goodness, gracious.

Folks, this is an EPISODE. Sarah guides us through the longing, pain, and h*rniness of Puberty 2 by Mitski, paired with a tall glass of "shower wine." We'll give you shower wine instructions because Zac grossly misunderstood the beverage's title. This episode feels like a lil sleepover where we all get wine drunk in our pajamas and talk about lOoOoOove. We also talk about having sex on antidepressants, hand fetishes, and, of course, puberty.

We'll talk about parasocial relationships, Avril Lavigne, and continue to ruin the reputability of Wikipedia. We also play a guessing game at halftime called "Pop Punk or P-Funk," which features the first in a series of Zac-constructed chaotic playlists. This is a good episode, snuggle up and enjoy!

Do you remember.... the 28th morning of September? It's the day this episode was released! Jk, we're not talking about Earth, Wind, & Fire.

Don't know much about music technicalities? Neither did Sarah! Fret (modified fret, that is) not, we'll guide you through it. We also play a game called Two Concept Albums and a Lie, where if you lose, a straight white man (Zac) explains a concept album by King Gizz.

This week, Sarah's choice was Greatest Hits by Remo Drive, accompanied by some teeeeeny tiny 8oz Strawberitas. No, "Greatest Hits" isn't just a compilation album. We reminisce about formative experiences with alcohol, Sarah talks about being a narc in college, Zac shares public bathroom woes, and we discuss the relationship between self-medicating and growing up.

Oh jeez guys, welcome to the first Album ReBrews bonus episode! This was originally part of our Dr. Dog episode where Zac introduced a 30-minute drinking game in the middle of recording. We got pretty inebriated, the game went on for a WHILE, and thus, a bonus episode was born. Also, this episode has a much looser feel and doesn't include a ton of critical music input. If you're here for the goofs, this is the episode for you! Enjoy this little snack, and stay tuned for next week's regularly scheduled content! (P.S.

( Here's a link to the album if you want some nostalgia ) Eventually, Zac guides us through Critical Equation by Dr. Dog while we sip on 3 Floyd's Yum Yum . We come up with a motto: "Friends who pee together podcast together." We also talk about feeling music in our bodies, Dr. Dog surpassing Architecture in Helsinki with their cover of "Heart it Races," and honestly, the episode descends into chaos and we order Domino's.

It's pretty good tbh, and we call it the "Mango Love." We recorded the WILLOW episode right before this one, so if it's a little extra spicy..... that's why. Other fun highlights include Logan's AP English essay tips, the best cure for a stuffy nose, Zac's Mick Jagger conspiracy theory, and the Fast and Furious collab of Sarah's dreams.

Whatever it is, it tasted like a delicious Yankee Candle. We'll also talk a whole bunch about The Midnight Gospel (SPOILERS), dating as a famous teen, Zac makes an unfortunate spelling error, and we make WAY too much noise with the ice in our drinks.
