Katie had no idea what other song by the Monkees contained the word "Believer."

First-time guest John Trumbull joins us in our new podcast studio/ murder basement. Spoiler alert: he doesn't get murdered. John has a lot of Monkee-love (hubba hubba) so it is fitting that we have him over for this song. He has the hat! He brought a DVD! Thats a real fan right there.

This song was the beginning of the end for this fake-band-turned-tv-show-turned-real-band.

Find out how little Peter Tork contributed. Find out why Mike Nesmith is independently wealthy. Find out which non-comedian/ non-Green Lantern wrote this song.

Axl Rose stole his moves from Davy Jones.

Also, the Indigo Girls are a good band, but you may not be able to stay awake during their concert.

This is 3/4 of a good song, but we need more.  Now you know how funky it can be.
