Lots and lots of movies have soundtracks. Some are classics. Some are bad. But the majority fall somewhere in between. This podcast is going to take a look at all of them (or, as many as I can). Every week I'll be covering a different movie that had an original motion picture soundtrack, and then digging into the album. One part film discussion, one part music discussion, the Soundtracker podcast is here to help you navigate the wide world of movies and music. In each episode, myself and a guest discuss the movie and its soundtrack, rate each one, give you our picks for the best songs on the soundtrack, and suggest additional recommendations for what to watch or listen to in relation to whatever we're covering. So join me, as I look back at an era that's largely a thing of the past, and maybe you'll find a new favorite film or song along the way. New episodes every Friday.

Episode 89: Urgh! A Music War (with stand-up comedian and writer Blaine Capatch, MadTV, @Midnight, The Martin Short Show, Beat the Geeks)
Today I'm tackling the show's very first concert film, and I'll post a link for where you can watch the whole thing for free on YouTube down below. It's URGH! A MUSIC WAR, and I'm joined by the always hilarious Blaine Capatch (@blainecapatch on Twitter and BlueSky) to talk about it.
This is also the first movie I was completely unfamiliar with before Blaine asked to do it, and I'm glad he did. You get to see/hear The Police, Devo, Echo and the Bunnymen, The Go-Gos, Joan Jett, XTC, Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark and a whole list of post-punk and new wave bands before they were famous. And being a concert film, the film discussion is light, so expect a lot of music discussion in this episode. And please check out the movie, it's free and it's a really fun watch!
