Today I'm joined by Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter (of The Format, fun. as well as solo) and host of ClayneCast Nate Ruess to talk about Ben Stiller's very dark comedy, THE CABLE GUY. In this episode we pat ourselves on the back for liking the movie even back when it came out, give a lot of love to mid-90s alt-rock, discuss Andy Dick, realize that Steven was actually a pretty bad friend, and, of course, talk about Jim Carrey.

Eric Peacock hosts Soundtracker, a weekly dive into the often-overlooked world of original motion picture soundtracks. Forget the simple playlists of pop songs; this is about the dedicated albums created for films, from undisputed classics to forgotten curiosities and everything in between. Each episode focuses on a single movie, weaving together a discussion of the film itself with a deep, thoughtful analysis of its accompanying soundtrack. The conversation explores how the music works within the story, stands alone as an album, and occupies its unique place in cultural memory. It’s a blend of genuine film criticism and music nerdery, delivered with a conversational and often comedic tone that reflects the show’s categories. While you can find samples elsewhere, full episodes of this podcast are available exclusively through Patreon, offering complete access to Eric’s thorough and entertaining explorations. Whether you're a cinephile, a music collector, or just someone who loves a good behind-the-scenes story, there’s a fresh discovery waiting in every installment.
