Rewind & React takes on the raw energy and unfiltered attitude of The Offspring in this week’s episode! Adam and Rob break down five of the band’s most memorable and stylistically diverse music videos—each one packed with social satire, absurdist humor, and generational chaos.

Here’s what we’re covering:

• Pretty Fly (For a White Guy): A clueless suburban teen tries way too hard to act cool. It’s a masterclass in satire, directed by McG (Charlie’s Angels), complete with lowriders, FUBU, and a surprise pool toss.

• The Kids Aren’t Alright: One of the band’s darkest and most powerful videos—featuring morphing characters, tragic backstories, and a hauntingly realistic take on life’s diverging paths.

• Hit That: CGI chaos and canine metaphors. A surreal dog chase unfolds in unique animation, ending in one poor pup’s unfortunate neutering.

• You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid: A down of his luck man works his way through high society in a stylish visual thriller filled with seduction, betrayal, and revenge.

• Dividing by Zero / Slim Pickens Does the Right Thing and Rides the Bomb to Hell: A double-feature cartoon explosion of war imagery, underground robots, and post-apocalyptic punk chaos.

You’ll hear behind-the-scenes trivia (like how “Pretty Fly” almost starred Seth Green), laugh through the band's Spanish song title quiz, and get a taste of how The Offspring blended punk attitude with unexpected artistry.
