CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on The Eddie Volkman Show with Hannah B on WSSR-FM (Star 96.7 Joliet, Illinois) on November 4th, reviewing the new film “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story,” currently streaming on the Roku Channel.

The origins of Young Al Yankovic (eventually portrayed by Daniel Radcliffe) and his magic accordion, and his shooting star fame all the way through the 1980s, including dating Madonna (Evan Rachel Wood). Or at least it’s how he remembers it. It’s time to Eat It, Eat It, Eat It.
