Bill and Tony are ready to find out 'Why Can't This Be Love' for Van Halen's '5150'! It's not just another album review; it's a 'Best of Both Worlds' deep dive into the Hagar era. We're sharing our 'Dreams' of 1986, uncovering studio secrets, and exploring if this was truly a 'Summer Nights' triumph.

From Eddie's guitar magic to the 'Love Walks In' stories, we're unpacking the album that topped the charts. Join Bill and Tony as they crank up the volume to explore the '5150' album legacy. Another rockin' adventure awaits!

Bill and Tony had so much fun at the movies with “A Complete Unknown”, but are happy to be back with the first album review show of the season. The Bob Dylan trend continues with a move from the big screen to the record store for a deep dive into Dylan’s classic, “Highway 61 Revisited”. There is plenty of room in the back of the “Buick 6”, and Bill and Tony have no “secrets to conceal”. Don’t worry - that’s an Acme slide whistle you hear behind you - not a police siren. Why not join Bill and Tony as they seek to discover: “How does it feel?”. We invite you on another excellent music adventure with Bill and Tony!

Bill and Tony kicked off season 3 with a road trip to discuss the concerts they saw in 2024. Before they get back to their album review shows, they made a pit stop at the movies to see the Bob Dylan biopic, “A Complete Unknown”, nominated for 8 Oscars this year. “Don’t think twice, it’s alright”, they’re not “Blowing in the Wind”, they are putting the finishing touches on “Highway 61 Revisited”, the first true album show of season 3. Grab some popcorn and your favorite movie candy and join Bill and Tony for an excellent adventure in movies!

We will also comment on some of our favorite new albums from 2024 and preview some of the episodes we have planned for you this year.

Aight, picture this: it's Christmas Eve, the fruitcake's gone stale, and the carols are on repeat for the 5,000th time. You're trapped in a family movie marathon with Aunt Mildred's questionable fashion choices burning into your retinas. Sound familiar? Well, fear not, weary travelers, because Bill & Tony's Excellent Adventure is here to rescue you with a holiday special like no other: This year we take a "Celluloid Sleigh Ride and pick our Our Favorite Holiday Flicks.
This is your chance to eavesdrop on two pop culture fiends as they dissect holiday cinema like elves on sugar. So grab your spiked eggnog (or hot cocoa, if you're feeling virtuous) and settle in for a holiday movie chat that's as warm as a crackling fire and as sharp as a snowman's carrot nose. Just remember, if Aunt Mildred asks what you're watching, tell her it's a heartwarming tale about the power of friendship... and questionable fashion choices. Happy holidays, you magnificent misfits!!!!!

Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny premiered on Disney+ on December 1st and judging by the disappointing box office numbers, a lot of folks didn’t go see this in the theater this summer. Bill and Tony think there is much to commend the movie to you. While it is not a perfect film, any movie with Harrison Ford, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Mads Mikkelsen in it is at least worth watching from home. Like Indy, Bill and Tony are back in the saddle for another Excellent Adventure in Movies.

Bill and Tony are hard at work recording season 3 of Bill and Tony’s Excellent Adventure in Music. We went to a bunch of concerts this year and to get us back in the swing of things, we present to you episodes recapping some of those experiences. Our first concert episode features Sea Hear Now - the 2-day music festival on the beach in Asbury Park, NJ. The headliners were The Killers and Foo Fighters and they did not disappoint. Join us as we recap our festival experiences, then head into the archives for our season 2 episodes featuring “Hot Fuss” and “The Colour and the Shape”.

There was a near-zero chance we would destroy the world when we pressed the record button, and we taped the pod anyway! Bill and Tony are back for a summer season of Excellent Adventures in Movies instead of Music. This week, we're presenting a spoiler free review of Oppenheimer. We were fortunate to see it in the 70mm IMAX format and look forward to sharing our experience with you! To paraphrase J. Robert Oppenheimer: "They won't fear it until they understand it and they won't understand it until they've" listened to Bill and Tony’s Excellent Adventurer in Music.

“There are no second acts in American lives,” according to F. Scott Fitzgerald. Dave Grohl begs to differ. After the passing of Kurt Cobain ended Nirvana, Grohl started the Foo Fighters. 25 years later, his “second act” joined his first in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame. Bill & Tony return for a chat about ‘The Colour and The Shape’ by Foo Fighters. We invite you to join us for our conversation about the first full band release of arguably the most important rock band of the past 25 years
