The Weekly Static S01E15: Harley, Happy!, Walkers, And More!
I'm the king of recap, there is none higher, so sucker MC's should probably call me "sire." To burn my kingdom, you must use fire, but I won't stop rockin' till…The Weekly Static!

So with mad respect to the great Run-DMC – here's what all the fuss is about: The Weekly Static is my righteously desperate-yet-endearing attempt at finding the lighter side and an interesting perspective on the past week in the land of the networks, cable, streaming, smoke signals, cloud formations, and shadow puppets.
Our goal? Pretty simple:
● Offer a blunt, honest perspective on a handful of random TV news posts from the past week that also highlights your relentless team of news-thirsty Bleeding Cool writers and the quality work they do.
● Spotlight a news item we missed, but we're pretty damn sure you'll find it interesting.
● Feed my insatiable ego with humble offerings of praise, adulation, social media shares, pizza, Superman Funkos, and a plethora of Eisner Award nominations. And at least one write-in vote in the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election.

Hear 'Weird Al' Yankovic's Polka Spin on the Squidbillies Theme
"Since premiering more than a decade ago, Adult Swim's far-out cartoon Squidbillies has had its theme song covered by a litany of artists ranging from T-Pain to Father John Misty to the B-52s. Considering his history of riffing on institutional tunes — and championing absurdist comedy — it was only a matter of time before 'Weird Al' Yankovic put his signature spin on the well-known theme, which EW is exclusively premiering above.
'I think any song sounds significantly better as a polka,' Yankovic tells EW, 'and the Squidbillies theme is certainly no exception.'"
