Episode 14: Just My Luck

2020/10/19

It's just our luck to have two great co-hosts, Chantel and Craig, on this week's episode as we revisit McFly's theatrical debut in the 2006 cinematic masterpiece, Just My Luck. The four of us reminiscence about McFly's early days, British vs American reactions to the film, and Harry's facial piercings. Plus: There's a high-stakes song-ranking bracket where we put the songs from the JML album up against each other and force them to compete. Which one will come out on

Episode 13: Bits and Bobs: Wonderland

2020/09/21

We're bringing the Wonderland era to a close with a ranking of all the B-sides and rarities from the studio album, including several covers and a few original songs t(hat are definitely better than the songs from the studio album, by the way). While attempting to determine what makes a good cover song--being true to the original or making a whole new sound?--we discuss mishearing lyrics, what makes us cry, and jamming out to karaoke. Plus: we speak to two fans, Alys and Tab, about their love for

Episode 12: Wonderland (THE ALBUM)

McWho: An American Podcast for McFly ·

2020/09/07

We consider Wonderland's legacy in our second album wrap-up episode: Even though Steph struggles to name five songs she genuinely likes and Sam rages against Memory Lane for, like, a long time, by the end we might just find new ways to appreciate McFly's second studio album anyway. Is it the sophomore slump of their discography or a daring, more mature sound from a band that doesn't want to be stereotyped? Why not both? * A podcast all about McFly, McWho is hosted by best

Episode 11: The Ballad of Paul K

McWho: An American Podcast for McFly ·

2020/08/24

In what is perhaps our best episode yet--and not just because Sam got a new microphone this week!--we are taking on the Ballad of Paul K, McFly's fourth and final single from the Wonderland album. A genuinely moving experiment in empathy, Paul K is famously written about several of the bandmates' fathers. Join us as we contemplate aging, animation, and the symbolism of living in a house that hates you. Feels like we're getting older! * If you are someone you know is experiencing

Episode 10: Ultraviolet

McWho: An American Podcast for McFly ·

2020/08/10

It's all about Wonderland's third-and-a-half single this week as we tackle "Ultraviolet" without a map or a plan. Sam doesn't even know the lyrics, Stephanie still can't understand the point of performance videos, and neither of us can figure out what this song is supposed to be about. Join us as we analyze the song's most obscure meanings, lament our lost youth, celebrate male friendships, and contemplate all possible identities for "Mrs. Halloween." Plus: This

Episode 9: I Wanna Hold You

2020/07/27

Maturity or censorship? Performance videos or scripted music videos? Silver alien or O-Town rip-off? Nose or lip rings? It’s all about debates this week as Steph and Sam consider the romanticism (or...not?) of destructive love in I Wanna Hold You, Wonderland’s third single that also happens to have three versions (?!). How's a fan to choose? A podcast all about McFly, McWho is hosted by best friends who've grown tired of other Americans asking who they mean when they mention their

Episode 8: I'll Be Okay

2020/06/29

A message of "okayness" feels timely and apt these days, friends. This week we tackle Wonderland's second single alongside our second guest speaker, Meredith Hughes. It's an hour of laughing at other people's misfortune as we discuss the merits of Harry's so-called friends, Tom's attempted murder, and who earns the title of the band's frontman.

Episode 7: All About You

McWho: An American Podcast for McFly ·

2020/06/15

We're baaaack! Kicking off our second season with Wonderland's first single, "All About You," we consider, among other things, what makes a song a hit, why this one rose to super-stardom, and how badly we want copies of 2005 teen magazines. Plus: Dougie has a LOOK that's turning heads, Danny hates everything, and Harry steals the show (again). The freshman album is over, kids--we're sophomores now!

Episode 6: Bits and Bobs: Room on the Third Floor

McWho: An American Podcast for McFly ·

2020/05/18

Our first bits & bobs episode, where we wrap up the Room on the Third Floor era by discussing anything from that time period that wasn't on the studio album, including B-sides and covers. We rank our favorite B-sides (spoiler: it involves a lot of hating on the Beatles, whoops?), discuss the OG McBusted songs from before McFly/Busted collabs even had a name, and--most exciting of all--interview some McFly fans about their earliest memories. It tastes just like cherry cola, y'all. A

Episode 5: Room on the Third Floor (THE ALBUM)

McWho: An American Podcast for McFly ·

2020/05/04

It's the battle of the slow jams versus surf rock bops as Stephanie and Sam consider the top five best songs from McFly's freshman album. In addition to singing badly and gushing over James Bourne, we uncover a lot of questions: Is broccoli just a euphemism? Who has dirtier minds, Brits or Americans? What is the best song on this album? And WHY was it so hard for these boys to get girlfriends? A new podcast all about McFly, McWho is hosted by best friends who've grown tired of other

Episode 4: Room on the Third Floor

2020/04/20

This week we have our FIRST EVER guest, Kathleen Harris, join us for our conversation on the title song from Room on the Third Floor and, whoops, did we pick a weird one for her! In addition to throwing a lot of shade on this song, we discuss body autonomy, attractive plastic people, and the importance of showing artistic range. This song was the first McFly released that wasn't about girls--but at what cost? A new podcast all about McFly, McWho is hosted by best friends who've grown

Episode 3: That Girl

McWho: An American Podcast for McFly ·

2020/04/06

It's official, folks: Third time's the charm. In our discussion of why "That Girl" is clearly the best single from Room on the Third Floor (we will not be accepting any other nominations at this time), we consider very serious things like economic status, social class, and Tom's butt. We have no idea how to talk about music, but we know we like guitar solos. Not to mention: Danny and Sam are back together, Stephanie moves to #FreeHarry2020, and Dougie might be murderer. A

Episode 2: Obviously

2020/03/23

What were you wearing in 2004? It was probably better than Dougie's clothes in the music video for McFly's second hit single, "Obviously." McWho: An American podcast for McFly is back with their second episode, where they discuss Gi's ex-boyfriend, a 23-year-old marine probably, and how weird it must be to date a writer, especially when you break up and they write songs about you. Plus: We don't understand British money; Sam and Dougie have the same sense of fashion; Steph

Episode 1: Five Colors in Her Hair

2020/03/09

In 2004, the Beach Boys had babies with the Beatles and then those babies made their first music video. McFly is here, and so is this podcast! Two US fans discuss McFly's first single--"Five Colors," because America, you know?--and consider how it functions as the perfect debut. We don't know what Surf Rock is, but we're pretty sure this is it. Also: wise-cracks about Danny's early 2000s fashion sense, Harry at the door with flowers, Dougie's butt, and an award for
