Punknews contributor Greg Simpson is bringing you an all new episode of This Might Be a Podcast, a show for They Might Be Giants superfans. On this episode, Actor, comedian and author DC Pierson is on the show this week to talk about a song he'd never heard before picking it, "We're The Replacements". He is a fan of TMBG but a bigger fan of The Replacements, so it made total sense. You've seen Pierson in Derrick Comedy with Donald Glover as well as Community, Captain America Winter Soldier, NTSF:SD:SUV and much more. We will give you a good primer on The Replacements, and whether this TMBG song is actually about them, finding interviews with the Johns 30 years apart that give conflicting messages. We also discuss just how hard this song slaps.

The Best Midwestern podcast, with hosts Greg Simpson and Scott Heisel, continues to explore the US Midwest state-by-state, here's what Greg has to say about this outing: “It’s our 11th (out of 12) state for our State-by-State project and it’s the biggest of them all - Illinois! The state in which both Scott and Greg were born was a mecca for the relocated blues and jazz scenes in the 1920s, and we also take things back further to Native American music, then cover all the best stuff in all genres through the 80s with punk and house music. This is just part 1 of the mighty Land of Lincoln episodes.” Click here to listen to the new episode or check it out below.
