Episode 217 – Eddie Schmidt on Weird Al – Polka Party

Posted on by

Eddie Schmidt not only produced my favorite documentary, Beauty Is Embarrassing, but he’s a huge Weird Al fan.  On top of that, he was in Al’s newsletter as a kid and even won an official Weird Al essay contest.  You don’t get more bona fide than that.
