<p>Katie was doomed by her parents to nerdiness from an early age, when they subjected her to a steady diet of Weird Al Yankovic. But there's much to be enthusiastic about in his decades-long musical career, including:</p> <ul> <li>How being parodied by Weird Al is bigger than winning an Emmy</li> <li>How he took first dates to see his own movie</li> <li>His complete and utter niceness</li> </ul> <p>Also, THIS IS EPISODE NUMBER 50!!! That's CRAZYCAKES!!!</p> <p><a href="https://electricenthusiasm.com/weird-al/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Get more information and links or leave a comment at electricenthusiasm.com</a>.</p>
