Not even Weird Al knows as much about Weird Al as author and podcaster Nathan Rabin does. He’s written more books on Weird Al than any of us have, and he has many thoughts about In 3-D. This episode is a blast.

Lisa is a voice teacher and a performer, who talks to me about working with Weird Al and Frank Zappa, including as a background singer on Al’s song about her father, “Mr. Popeil.” I stand by my dumb food dehydrator joke, but for the record that one is Ron’s.

While mainstream artists both derided and endorsed the practice, the latter for its sheer ability to spread the word about talented music acts, some of them faced genuine obstacles in having to embrace not just the attitudes and habits of a new generation of music listeners, but an entire new era of technology and communication.
