The Weezer POX

Yeah, imo Maron had imagined some kind of weird narrative for Cuomo's life that didn't fit (and was full of things I don't remember ever hearing about). But enh...didn't have a lot invested in this episode anyway.

Rivers supposedly spent a long time (post Pinkertown) just bouncing a ball against the wall in an apartment where all the walls and windows were painted black. He's also done plenty of weird songwriting experiments over the years, but if that's the angle Maron wanted to go he shouldn't have framed it as "remember when you were insane and did these weird things?"

as usual he didn't do his research, which i expected, given that i thought it was pretty good. i knew he wasn't going to be asking about songs from the black hole or something

a POX for these guys = surprisingly difficult to do

(well maybe not surprisingly. I've always maintained that their eventual singles collection will be their third best album.)

easy.
