We're baaaack and we've got LOTS to talk about. On today's episode we wade into the waters of the recent RiversCuomo.com demo drops as we dissect 2007's "Deliverance at Hand!" This marks the beginning of our deep dive into the copious new Solo Cuomo Demos.

If you have a bundle, demo, or track you're excited about please let us know. We're admittedly overwhelmed by all the new conten...

A mid-week, midday episode of WTW2T? What's gotten into us?! Well when Weezer releases new music Chris + Chris spring into action and plug in their mics. It's copious "Hero" talk and a great Weezer Shuffle on today's show!

This is a special one for us as we get to talk to founding Weezer guitarist Jason Cropper. He's been busy writing and recording a slew of new music and was kind enough to debut 2 brand-new songs right here on our podcast! He also offers insight into his creative process, his collaborators and his biggest musical influences. Oh, and we talk a little Weez' as well, of course! For more of that, be sure to subscribe to our BL...

This is essentially the "casual Friday" of episodes: Chris + Chris listen to some Weezer songs on shuffle and share their random thoughts. They also share wayyy too much information about RI accents, Guitar Hero and sex sounds (no, not Pet Sounds...sex sounds). But at its core, this just an hour of two friends enjoying some quality Weezer music as well as each other's company.

They're baaaaack! That's right Chris, Chris AND Weezer are all back with some sweet new 'tent for your tender ears...on September 10th, the band officially released "The End of the Game" - the first single off their forthcoming record VAN WEEZER (coming in May 2020). They also announced a mega huuuuuge new tour alongside Green Day and Fall Out Boy! So suffice it to say, C + C have PLENTY to talk about. The ...

The Chrisses have a unique one for you this (bi)week…with summertime scheduling conflicts running amok (and a sure-to-be epic “Death to False Metal” episode impatiently waiting to be tracked), Chris the Elder takes the mic SOLO-style and offers an inside look into how to write and record an original song. The song in question is pertinent since it was inspired BY WEEZER and describes their controversial creative arc. No, it doesn’t...

This week Chris and Chris complete their countdown of their 5 favorite bands since Weezer dropped Blue back in May 1994. But worry not, C + C do their best to relate all of their choices back to Rivers and the gang in some way...and MOSTLY succeed.

Well folks, in the immortal words of someone who kinda knows the lyrics to "Sgt. Pepper" - it was 25 years ago today! That's right, this day marks the silver anniversary of Weezer's Blue Album and Chris + Chris are ready to celebrate! Fun discussions and CONTROVERSIAL opinions abound in this 3+ hour breakdown of one of the best albums...ever. The boys also manage to eliminate one song each with their Black Album...

At long last, Chris + Chris get to Pinkerton!

Can C + C  really spend 140 minutes discussing a 28 minute record?? You better believe it! This week the boys break down the 10 tight, little pop rock nuggets which comprise Weezer's Green Album. They also talk Blind Melon, AC/DC, Yo La Tengo and even the great Henry Mancini...also heroin. And after much debate, they manage to muster up 3 heart songs that may leave listeners scratching (and shaking) their heads...
