Frank Farian did the same thing with his previous band Boney M, only back then, no one really cared. That's probably why he was so surprised by the negative response to Milli Vanilli not singing on their own album .

“Oh, honey, haven’t you heard? Jered Threatin is a solo artist.” You kill me with those one liners 😂

Whoa whoa whoa...I realize I'm a little behind and I'm just getting to this episode, but this dude is from Moberly, MO??!? My whole extended family is from that super, super small town...hearing ACC say "Moberly, Missouri" is similar to hearing a celebrity say your name and feeling a little bit special lol

Ironic timing with the Crime Junkie podcast issues
Kimberly Ness
This episode was amazing! I starting laughing and everyone around me thought I was crazy. Keep it coming!!!
Sofie Adams
No problem. It's still a great episode! 🙂
Swindled
Ugh sorry. Not sure what’s up with that. Seems like it’s only happening for a portion of you. I’ve re-uploaded the audio and verified that it’s clean on my end. Seems like an issue with Patreon. I wish I had a solution.
Swindled
Hoax
Sofie Adams
I also get the weird noises both on Podcast Addict and if I listen in the Patreon app itself. 😕
This episode is metal🤓
Ryan Rogers
Great episode. What’s the podcast with the band interviews?
Joe Nehmer
Another excellent episode!
Rebecca Henderson
Listen on Patreon website on my desktop, no issues here...
Keeks

I just re-uploaded the audio. Try to re-download.
Sarah
Audio issue is happening for me too. No audio of them showing they can rap/sing with their own voices after being exposed.
Danielle Gardner
I just wanna say, Parcast can suck it.
Melisa Matkin
Excellent as always Mr. ACC.
Donald Roberts
Happening to me as well, weird alien noise.
nerdy birdie
Omg. Those poor musicians that got suckered in. Also he’s not that great. The Milli Vanilli guys sounded better in their own voices.

So this what someone thought was “Metallica” 😂 Now we need to figure out who the Honey Boo Boo person is. Hey, could the Metallica/Napster thing be an episode?!
C
OMG the milli vanilla thing could be its own episode. So sad.
Laurel Violet
A Concerned Citizen, you know it's true. Ah-ah-ah, I love you.
Brittany
Might just be the way it download on my phone. Maybe for the best I can't hear Milli Vanilli try to prove they can rap/sing ☺️
Swindled
Hmmm I'm not hearing it on my end. Anyone else having issues?
Brittany
I am lucky to be able to listen now 🥰 Wanted to give you a heads up though that at around the 7:56 mark the recording isn't working: no speaking just a weird alien noise. Happens again at 8:17.
