The Ultimate Green Jellÿ Playlist (Bill Manspeaker Interview)

In this throwback episode, I’m joined by Bill Manspeaker of the outrageous Green Jellÿ⁠ for one of the most fascinating—and NSFW—interviews I’ve ever recorded. We dive deep into the band’s wild history, including their Guinness World Record for the most band members (with over 900 members worldwide at the time of recording!), their chaotic appearance on The Gong Show, and the infamous moment Joey Ramone called them the worst band The Ramones ever played with. Bill shares behind-the-scenes stories about producing the Cereal Killer VHS and soundtrack one video at a time, and how the band once held the record for the highest-debuting rock single in UK chart history. We also explore the band’s ties to Tool, their legal battle over the name Green Jellö, and their collaboration with Marvel Comics on Carnage Rules. Other unforgettable moments include recording “I’m the Leader of the Gang (I Am)” with Hulk Hogan, working with (or without) Metallica in regards to the breakdown in “Electric Harley House (Of Love),” working on music videos for 2Pac, Marilyn Manson, and “Weird Al” Yankovic, touring with KISS during their 1997 reunion, and performing at the Gathering of the Juggalos alongside Insane Clown Posse. And don't be alarmed, of course we discuss the cultural phenomenon known as “Three Little Pigs.” Head over to ⁠MyWeeklyMixtape.com⁠ to stream every song featured in this episode, browse the full archive of curated playlists, check out exclusive artist interviews, and discover even more music content designed for fans of all genres!  FOR MORE ON MY WEEKLY MIXTAPE Website: http://www.myweeklymixtape.com Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/myweeklymixtape Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/myweeklymixtape X: https://x.com/myweeklymixtape Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/myweeklymixtape Threads: https://www.threads.net/@myweeklymixtape  Blusky: https://bsky.app/profile/myweeklymixtape.bsky.social  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@myweeklymixtape Theme music is "Unveiled" by⁠ The 4th⁠.
