I've been a fan of weird Al's for 30 years at least and Nirvana for 30 years at least and I feel that Al should have walked out of the interview as soon as the word heroin was mentioned. Whoever the hell this guy is he needs to take a step back and may find new profession very very unprofessional of mentioning heroin when the story isn't even about that

I thought this was a segment on weird Al doing a song about Nirvana not about Kurt's heroin use. Not a joke but apparently it is to this guy

Only here to hear about Kurt. Not listen to Neal’s femboy soy voice.

The friend he had on SNL was Victoria Jackson. Funny how he doesn't mention that anymore.

He said he ran into Cobain at restaurant in LA after he did song too, he said the interaction was pretty bizarre.

me my mom and sisters saw weird al yankovic at the grocery store it was just us in the isle and my mom walked up and asked for his autograph which he happily gave and I hid behind my mom cuz I was star struck I knew who was but not only that literally a few months before I saw his behind the music episode on VH1 so I knew the kind of success he had and it was just surreal. I lost in jeopardy!

Neal Brennan is awesome and saw me humiliated once at Asscat3000 but I didn't care because I was front row and Neal was there.

There‘s certain guys like Weird Al (in music),Carrot Top (in Stand Up) or Nardwuar (in journalism) whose schtick may not be everybody‘s cup of tea,but their success and longjevity has to be respected!
Love the format,especially with those kind of outliners ❤
