Convince Me To Like This Band

In Episode 5, the extreme SUPER JUGGALO, "Hanka," who has seen Insane Clown Posse perform over 220 times, puts his passion on display as he explains the strange allure of the Clowns and attempts to convince Derrick Braxton, the Grammy winning Hip Hop producer and engineer who has worked with Lupe Fiasco, Pharrell Williams and Raekwon, that ICP are misunderstood and under-appreciated artistic mavericks.

Passionate Rush SUPER FAN and former aide to Barack Obama, Jillian Maryonovich, who has seen the band live over 90 times, has been featured in the Rush documentary Time Stand Still and is a co-organizer of RUSHCon, (the convention for Rush fans), professes her deep and obsessive love for Rush and argues on behalf of The Holy Trinity against Rush "HATER", Brian Cogan, Ph.D who is a professor and author of several books on pop culture, including The Encyclopedia of Punk, and Everything I Ever Needed To Know About ___* I Learned From Monty Python.

Extreme Morrissey "Super Fan," Jose Maldonado (known all over the internet as The Mexican Morrissey), discusses his obsession with The Moz and defends the former Smiths frontman against the charges of intolerable pretension, tawdry melodrama, artistic stagnation and offensive political stances, all of which have been leveled by Morrissey "Hater" Andrew Novick, who, while in the 1980's brat-punk band Warlock Pinchers, penned the brutish and comedic song, "Morrissey Rides A Cockhorse". 

In Episode Two, Phish fanatic and SUPER FAN, Brian Bavosa, who has seen Phish live 454 times(!), professes his love for Phish and defends the Vermont four-some against the quick-witted and hilarious Tim Harrington, the singer and front man of the legendary indie-rock outfit, Les Savy Fav. 

Are Slayer the most intense and sophisticated metal band of all time or are they an overrated novelty act that just won't die? In our pilot episode, Slayer super-fan Mike Meyer (the kid who carved "Slayer" into his arms and was thus immortalized in the artwork of Slayer's 1994, Divine Intervention record) and Slayer super-fan Craig Faretra argue the merits of these metal demigods against the Slayer-hater and co-founder of Metal Insider, Bram Teitelman. Jokes and fireworks ensue.
