- 3:03Hello, I miss it too. I remember Halloween all right.
- 3:11So we always start with the announcements and we do a Little
- 3:14Rock and metal history as well as the week that was.
- 3:17So Alan, the Victor, what up brother?
- 3:19We still got to get that interview together.
- 3:21I am winding down my year in terms of my availability.
- 3:25So let's get something on the books in the next couple of
- 3:27weeks if time permits and let's talk about all the things.
- 3:33Thanks for being here. All right, we had some some
- 3:36losses. This is a story, you know, I
- 3:37missed last week because I was sick.
- 3:39I met my dietitian. This week I had a huge like
- 3:42healthcare update and I have a lot of stuff going on and it'll
- 3:46be done is also here. I got a lot of healthcare stuff
- 3:48going on, health, mental and physical stuff going on that I
- 3:51need to take care of and. I am taking.
- 3:53Care of But I brought this story back up a couple of weeks ago
- 3:56that the beloved bodega cat of the Mission District in San
- 4:00Francisco nearby where I live, was killed by a Waymo that did
- 4:05not stop at a stoplight. We have a lot of automated cars
- 4:09here in San Francisco and I know they're getting all over the
- 4:12country. I think there was something like
- 4:1450,000. Automated rides, no driverless,
- 4:17you know, driverless rides and cabs and cars and Waymo,
- 4:21actually. Put out a statement.
- 4:23That they knew about the death of Kit Kat the cat.
- 4:26And I just thought that was interesting that that, you know,
- 4:29this is, you know, the world we live in that at least.
- 4:33They put a statement out, which I appreciated, but, you know,
- 4:35doesn't take away the fact that the cat was a beloved fixture of
- 4:38my neighborhood. All righty other people who
- 4:41passed away this week. Larry Brooks.
- 4:44Not going to be a big name for most people, but if you were a.
- 4:46Hockey fan. You have probably read something
- 4:49Larry Brooks wrote, or you remember him being on broadcast.
- 4:53I grew up reading Larry Brooks's column in the New York.
- 4:56Post as a New Yorker. My dad used.
- 4:58To say the New York Post in the Daily News was only good for the
- 5:01sports section and the cat litter box.
- 5:03But Larry was a treasurer. He had a deep and beloved
- 5:08knowledge of the whole history of hockey.
- 5:10And he passed away at 75 this week also.
- 5:14Lenny Wilkins. Most people older than me know
- 5:17Lenny Wilkins, the basketball player for the Portland
- 5:22Supersonic, Seattle SuperSonics and the and the Portland Trail
- 5:27Blazers escape me there for a minute.
- 5:30And then obviously much more so as a legendary basketball coach
- 5:34of the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Atlanta.
- 5:37Hawks rest in power to Lenny Wilkins.
- 5:39I think he was sick for a very long time with cancer.
- 5:42Which super sucks. Hey, Gabe is here.
- 5:44What up Gabe? Gabe's got a big album.
- 5:46Coming out tomorrow, we're going to talk.
- 5:47About that in a little bit. Want to do the album's?
- 5:50Rundown of the week also passing away.
- 5:54Sadly this week the penny is getting pulled out of existence.
- 5:58I don't know if that's permanent but they've been talking about
- 6:01this for years in the USA. Don't throw your pennies out
- 6:04yet. I think they are, you know, soon
- 6:10to, you know, maybe make a comeback someday.
- 6:12But there are like 13 million pennies in circulation.
- 6:16By the way, this. Is a.
- 6:18This is a sad. 1 You know I'm a huge I don't know if you know
- 6:24this, but Kifi is a huge cinephile.
- 6:27And so, yeah, Tayyetsuya Nakadaai.
- 6:31Nakadaai, sorry if I said that incorrectly.
- 6:34Nakadaai is on one of the greatest actors in Japanese film
- 6:37history and I think most people know him from Yojimbo or
- 6:41Harakiri or Yan or Ron. Most of the Kurosara films had
- 6:46him. Quidon and other things.
- 6:48The human condition. Incredible long lived actor in
- 6:53Japanese cinema history. Very very sad to hear of his
- 6:56passing. Miny Stephens, who was a
- 6:59celebrity chef, died in a terrible helicopter crash.
- 7:02I feel like it has been a very bad year for celebrity chefs.
- 7:05Including celebrity chefs with that hairdo seem to be dying
- 7:09left and right. Very sorry about that and I'm
- 7:12not sure why, but rest in power. She was not that old.
- 7:15Kind of very tragic. I think her helicopter crashed
- 7:18in to some power lines. Jesus.
- 7:23Zach is here with a question mark, Becky is here and St.
- 7:27Lethal is here. What up, What up?
- 7:29What up, what up? Nuclear Dudes is here.
- 7:32New album. Out tomorrow.
- 7:33We're going to run an interview with you all tomorrow also.
- 7:36Done by our own Morgan Evans. Betty Harford.
- 7:40Man, I watched so much Dallas and Dynasty and the Kobe's as a
- 7:44kid. It's amazing that I'm not
- 7:46jumping on every fucking Dick in the world.
- 7:49But Betty was serving up SAS as the maid or the, you know, head
- 7:54housekeeper on Dynasty. And I watched like every episode
- 7:57of Dynasty with my mom. It was fucking nuts.
- 8:01She passed away this week. Very sad.
- 8:04And Duane Roberts, the inventor of the frozen burrito, died.
- 8:08And the Internet never lets me down with this.
- 8:11Duane Roberts, inventor of the frozen burrito, has died.
- 8:13His body is now cold, but only in the middle.
- 8:16Fuck, you got to give it up. Comedy.
- 8:20Always lead with humor if you can because life is going to
- 8:23kick in the gooey bits every chance it can.
- 8:27Also I missed Godzilla day. I was promoting Godzilla day in
- 8:31the run up to November. Godzilla Day passed and I just
- 8:34want to shout out Godzilla. You know, when it feels like the
- 8:38world's against you, kill it. And we're getting a new
- 8:42Godzilla. The sequel or follow up to
- 8:44Godzilla -1 Godzilla 0 in 2027. Probably the best Godzilla.

- 8:53all done with practical effects and movie.

- 14:21All right, that's our Cash App. That's the deal.
- 14:23All right, let's just. Normalize this photo,
- 14:27unfortunately. Y'all on TikTok can't see this
- 14:28incredible photo of Maynard James Keenan at a party.
- 14:33The photo is dated 2. 1009 but this.
- 14:35Is clearly Maynard like in the early 90s?
- 14:40I'm not sure what you know what's.
- 14:41Going on with this and I'm trying to figure out who this
- 14:43chick is. Maynard with a very weird, I
- 14:47don't know if that's his real hair or hairpiece.
- 14:49Or what? Go weigh in and tell me in the
- 14:50comments. What you think?
- 14:52If that's his real hair. All right, time for some
- 14:55features here. I'll go back and big in myself.
- 14:58Yo it's me features at Ghost Cult this weekend.
- 15:01I missed last week, so we're going to double it up real quick
- 15:04again. I'm jumping.
- 15:05On every Monday afternoon at 2:00 PM Pacific. 5:00 PM
- 15:09Eastern, whatever time Europe. And we are updating the line up
- 15:14every week a little bit at a time of the Mojave Experience
- 15:17Festival. The inaugural festival is
- 15:19kicking off at Joshua Tree March 20th and 21st 2020 sixth.
- 15:24And I will be there. Those cult will be.
- 15:26Representing and I'm really excited about this.
- 15:31OK, here we go. Unnamed the bass.
- 15:35Player without the. Bass and Herman Punch will play
- 15:36by backing tracks. Yeah, I mean, you know.
- 15:39OK, I get it. You know, I think the most
- 15:46important thing for bands you can do to help your career and
- 15:49be trustworthy and supportive, supportable is to be
- 15:56transparent. And I know that's hard to do and
- 15:59the road is unforgiving. I jumped on a live stream this
- 16:03week and I talked about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at length.
- 16:05I reviewed the Rock and Roll Hall.
- 16:07Of fame ceremony. I watched the entire thing.
- 16:09You can still watch it on Paramount.
- 16:10Plus and I talked about the bands that were put in.
- 16:13I'll talk a little bit more about it in a minute, but I did
- 16:16a deep, deep dive this week over an hour talking about all the
- 16:19bands that are not in that should be in, who should be in
- 16:22next from rock, metal and punk. I probably have some thoughts
- 16:25about hip hop, but I didn't really go there, but maybe next
- 16:29time. Big feature interviews this
- 16:32week. You can check these interviews
- 16:33out on our YouTube and you can check these interviews out
- 16:35wherever you listen to podcast. I talked to Vince of evoking
- 16:39their new. Album is out and it is a.
- 16:40Banger, absolute brilliant avant-garde black and death
- 16:44metal album. Also my umpteenth interview with
- 16:48Max Cavallera of Soul Fly went live this week.
- 16:51I have talked to Max about every single project.
- 16:53He has ever had. We have a.
- 16:55You know, I would say this really quick.
- 16:57Thanks, Auntie Mosby, I appreciate you.
- 17:00You know, I just want to say from the bottom of my heart,
- 17:03there's a lot of times they rub a band, man.
- 17:05Is he? What's up?
- 17:07I'm going to sing that next time you pop into.
- 17:08One of these streams, I'm singing this song for you.
- 17:11But you know, I just want to say for a second.
- 17:12You know, I interviewed Max and, and he's always great to me.
- 17:16Gloria is always great to me. Richie Zion.
- 17:21Igor the younger, Igor the brother, they've all been.
- 17:26Great to me. And I just want to say, like a
- 17:27lot of the stuff we do is. Thankless.
- 17:30And it's. Hard.
- 17:31And it takes a lot of energy and money and hours I cannot get
- 17:35back but. I do this because I love this
- 17:37and Max is one of the people who helps validate me, the
- 17:41journalist and interviewer that makes me feel good about what I
- 17:44do. And so I just I'm so grateful
- 17:47that Max, you know, shows that love and respects us and you
- 17:52know, it means a lot to me because this I talk very.
- 17:55Frequently with my peers, this is a very thankless.
- 17:57Endeavor, thanks for everybody and I.
- 17:59Appreciate you just for being here and saying that.
- 18:02Also last week, because I wasn't here to talk about it, Shock
- 18:06Narcotic, Jeff Tuttle, formerly of the Dillinger Escape Plan,
- 18:09Dillinger Compound will probably pop up at some point here or
- 18:12next time. And great interview.
- 18:14Shock Narcotic. Just finished opening for
- 18:16Pantera and Monomor on a whole bunch of dates and Jeff is
- 18:20brilliant and he's got a lot of thoughts about death metal and
- 18:23the band. And I talked to the great Roger
- 18:26Morett of Agnostic Front. I had interviewed Vinnie Stigma
- 18:29before. I had met Roger and Vinnie on
- 18:31many occasions and Mike Gallo. This is my first time talking
- 18:34with Roger and it was like a real.
- 18:36Blast from the past for both of us.
- 18:37New Agnostic Front album echoes an eternity out now on Raining
- 18:43Phoenix Music. More news about the Raining
- 18:45Phoenix label coming up OK. Also on the podcast, exclusively
- 18:51on our podcast channels, I interviewed James.
- 18:53Kent AKA Pertubator I just listened to this whole record
- 18:57not too long ago with my girlfriend Melissa.
- 19:00Phenomenal new album out now Age of Aquarius got guest
- 19:03appearances from author and Punisher and over and a bunch of
- 19:07other people. Al sest and just a killer killer
- 19:12artist. I think Gabe, you would really
- 19:14dig Pertubator. If you're not familiar.
- 19:16And a great interview with him he's French so the number one
- 19:21thing you can do with French people is not insult them
- 19:23they're trying to speak French words at them but James great
- 19:27interview went up this week on our podcast also friend of the
- 19:31show ghost called contributor my podcast partner Don de Lamont
- 19:36also my. Podcast partner on the Glacial.
- 19:37Musical podcast Don's new album Dancing on My Father's Grave and
- 19:41Other Stories comes out tomorrow on Dark Waters Records, features
- 19:45a song with Marissa Nadler, the current single.
- 19:48You know the harsh they wrote in on incredible stuff.
- 19:51I'm really proud of my friend. But also, like, if we weren't
- 19:54friends, I would still dig this out.
- 19:55And this is a record for fans of Nick Cave, Tom Waits, Amigo, The
- 20:00Devil by the end, Gallows, even a little bit sometimes.
- 20:05Good stuff also. So that's all the features.
- 20:12French fries are American. Yeah, well, technically not
- 20:15even. French.
- 20:16They are Belgian, but that's a whole nother story.
- 20:19Humphreys. When I was in Amsterdam.
- 20:24And the rest of the Netherlands, they eat French fries in Europe
- 20:28with Mayo. They don't really have tomato
- 20:30ketchup the way we do. It's wild Mayo on everything.
- 20:35It's certainly better than ranch.
- 20:37Ranch is like the jizz of all condiments.
- 20:39I don't know, it's just my gut feeling.
- 20:41So metal festivals here's what we're working with this week.
- 20:44I'm hoping metal meeting is coming up.
- 20:46I'm no one big in this Again, we are hoping to cover this for the

- 23:15a band Mer and there's a band Mer.
- 23:19Good luck. Mork, Firesporn, Diverza,
- 23:23Carnivore ADI. Feel like carnivore AD has the
- 23:25guy that looks like Peter Steele in it.
- 23:26Gross. But no shade on the carnivore
- 23:29dudes who I grew up watching night like in that band a lot.
- 23:33Hierophant Mir again, Mir. Mir and Mir, What the fuck?

- 24:04I'm hoping to get an interview with Todd, their owner, The
- 24:08return of Zed and Black Wharf. That's the bottom of the hill of
- 24:13my favorite venues in the Bay Area.
- 24:16Moving right along, going too fast.
- 24:18Blood Moon Ritual is a black and death metal festival, mostly
- 24:23black metal taking place in Montreal and it is anti fascist,
- 24:26anti racist black metal. Black metal definitely has
- 24:29problems with those issues. Bots must say arms, a bunch of
- 24:36other bands that I can't read, legible logos, but we ran the
- 24:40story on this when I saw it. This is put up also.
- 24:42In collaboration with the Black Metal Rainbows book.

- 25:33Chi Town. Our.
- 25:35Tangent Festival. We brought you the news about
- 25:37this a few weeks ago. Just a reminder, Igor Pertubator
- 25:41Chatpile Alceston. Oathbreaker, The Return of
- 25:43Oathbreaker, and a bunch more small bar in one of their last
- 25:47shows ever. I might have to go to that
- 25:49Prepare to the Ground festival to see Small board or else
- 25:52someone cry. This also looks.
- 25:55Really good glacial mutilation fest with morning high averse
- 26:00friends of the show and Opal in the Sky.

- 26:27Hi, there's a Queen Bone Church, Phantom Lord, Familiars and a
- 26:31few others. Oh, failure dude, so sick.
- 26:36And I think they have a new record coming for next year.
- 26:38I don't know if you know that. I interviewed Ken Andrews, a
- 26:40Failure for their new documentary.
- 26:42You can watch now on Disney Plus and Hulu, and that's a great
- 26:47interview if you want to really deep dive into the band.
- 26:49It is a brutal watch if you love the band like should have been
- 26:53like big like pool and 9 inch nails and just not did not
- 26:57happen. For them because of drugs.
- 26:59But. They're back and they're alive
- 27:00and they're doing shit, so it's great.
- 27:02Match the Rock Island metal. Fest I believe.
- 27:06In Vancouver Island, British Columbia, next summer is open to
- 27:10bands. If you want to go play a metal
- 27:11festival, you could get on there and play.
- 27:13If you got your shit together. Check it out.
- 27:18Well, welcome to Rockville lineup now that Sonic Temple has
- 27:21dropped is due to drop. They've been announcing bands,
- 27:23but the full lineup is due any day now, so stay tuned.
- 27:28All right, that's all the festivals this week.
- 27:30We'll bring more and more and more.
- 27:32As we get closer to 2026. Metal concerts and there was a
- 27:36lot of tours announced this week so this is just a sample don't
- 27:39get. Freak freaking mad at me.
- 27:42Not that Iron Maiden Iron Maiden's added more dates since
- 27:45we first announced this, but what they what?
- 27:47Maggie Daff is the story here. Maggie Daff has announced.
- 27:49And I think it's in the, you know, hey, you know, farewell
- 27:54album. Farewell tour one more year of.
- 27:56Touring and they put tickets on sale and then Dave Mustang gives
- 27:59his first interview about anything and says I can see us
- 28:02going for three or four more. Years or five more years?
- 28:05Bro, this is the same thing Oasis did.
- 28:07This is the same. Don't do this.
- 28:10If it's a farewell tour, it's a farewell tour.
- 28:13Tell us when it ends. And fucking oh, nice, relatable.
- 28:17Tell us when it ends, man, we're spending a lot of money on.
- 28:19I know you want to sell tickets. But tell us when it when the
- 28:23total is it 3 to 5? Is not a good number a good?
- 28:27I'm sorry, it's just not. Tell us when it's going to end
- 28:31or you know, it's, it's, I don't know.
- 28:35I'm sorry, I'll get off, my old man yells at the cloud thing.
- 28:38Foo. Fighters again.
- 28:39I'm going to see Foo Fighters, Guns N' Roses, ACDC, we're all
- 28:43the same stuff. Put tickets Iron Maiden, put
- 28:44tickets on sale, economically priced tickets not selling out
- 28:50tickets will be available. My best advice to you is stay.
- 28:52Just sit on your money, wait a few months, you're going to see
- 28:56things like Groupon pop up and other things and.
- 29:00Sometimes the shows will sell out like Oasis did.
- 29:03And then I think we're heading into.
- 29:04Probably a recession. I'm not a financial expert, but
- 29:07my gut. Feeling says recession,
- 29:09depression for 26 and. So you know, if you've got
- 29:12disposable income and you want to go to concerts, you don't
- 29:15have to like. Oh, you got to buy them the
- 29:16first. Day because it's hard.
- 29:17You can't even win against the bots.
- 29:20Same thing with Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi's.
- 29:22Adding like now double or triple this amount of shows.
- 29:25That he's announced or they've announced, and I have the new
- 29:28Bon Jovi, you know, history. Book that I'm really.
- 29:31Excited to unbox and review at some point but I don't know.
- 29:36John can. He has trouble singing, his
- 29:39voice is kind of shot and his hearing is going.
- 29:41I I don't know if he can do 20. Shows in a row.
- 29:44Like I just don't think so, but OK, I'm not rooting against a
- 29:48Vinny episode is Sabbath nights. A night of Black Sabbath is
- 29:52coming to Los Angeles December 19th with special guest Truth in
- 29:57captivity. California villain Pandemic
- 30:01Unleashed featuring ghost cultist Morgan White Evans of

- 30:11riot. They better go be.
- 30:12Playing Black Hole Sun, even just as a jam on Sugar Fix,
- 30:17Vinny is going to play stuff from across his own greatest
- 30:19hits of Black Sabbath and Dio. Great guy.

- 30:29tonight. Beverly Hills for some reason

- 30:50soon. They've already dropped the
- 30:51second single. Very excited.
- 30:53Are homies in desolate? This is I wish that I could
- 30:56just. It's going to be beam me up.
- 31:02I wish that I could teleport to New York City on Saturday and
- 31:05then teleport back because I need to be here to see my homies
- 31:09in desolate, including members of Alec Kane's Gun with Jess
- 31:12Penintel. Desolate, One of the best heavy
- 31:14metal thrash. Hardcore bands in New York City
- 31:17history in my opinion. I used to play gigs with.
- 31:20Them back in the day which force lies beneath friends of ours.
- 31:23Also Bowhead and Furia. Not the Furia from Europe, but.
- 31:26American Furia playing at the Brooklyn Monarch Saturday.

- 37:04rundown Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 37:06Inducted Soundgarden among a bunch of other artists.
- 37:09I'm really happy about this. I thought it was very well done.
- 37:12It was interesting to see Jerry Cantrell performing with
- 37:15Soundgarden. Alice In Chains, clearly
- 37:18overlooked and needs to be in, has been eligible.
- 37:21For a long. Time Iron Maiden should have
- 37:24been in a long time ago. Who?
- 37:28You know, I know the Hall of Fame is, you know, suspect, but
- 37:31like this, we have it. So let's discuss it.
- 37:33If you've got a comment. I did this already on a very
- 37:36vast discussion the other night. But if you want to drop a
- 37:39comment, who? Is not in the Rock and Roll Hall
- 37:42of Fame that deserves to be in from rock and metal or adjacent
- 37:46music genres specifically. Drop a comment Also the Grammy
- 37:52Awards. Nominated their things and you
- 37:56know it's a lot of the usual suspects.
- 37:58Ghost and Spirit Box again, even though they haven't won yet, and
- 38:02turn. Style.
- 38:03Got nominated for five Grammys. Do you not give a shit about the
- 38:07Grammys? I don't really give a shit about
- 38:08the Grammys I love to complain about.
- 38:10The Grammys. But what do you think about the
- 38:12Grammy Awards? They probably will not.
- 38:13They will not give the medal and rock awards on air, probably.
- 38:17And they will not have rock and metal artists performing on air.
- 38:20But it's it, you know, these things help record labels.
- 38:25So Turnstile is still on a pretty big record label here for
- 38:28rock. Warner Brothers owns Roadrunner,
- 38:30who has Turnstile. You know, Gojira won last year,
- 38:34which was like considered a coup for such an.
- 38:37Formerly underground band and that had to do with the Olympics
- 38:39and everything. So anyway.
- 38:41Turnstile. Good for them.
- 38:44Please stop sending me footage of the Miss World contestant
- 38:49that sings death metal from the banned diseases.
- 38:51Yes, we know. Yes, I saw it.
- 38:53Yes, she ruled. She didn't win Miss World, but I
- 38:56think she won Miss Chile. Miss World Chile.
- 38:59But she didn't win the world. She got beat by somebody else.
- 39:03I just like that, you know, like metal in unexpected places is
- 39:06always welcome. But yes, I fucking saw it.
- 39:08Please stop sending me and tagging me.
- 39:10Thank you Poppy has announced a new album, probably You know
- 39:14she's having a humongous year. Nominated for a Grammy at.
- 39:16The start of the year with Knock loose her.
- 39:19New album is coming soon. She dropped the new single in
- 39:21the video and apparently Sumerian sent an e-mail to me
- 39:27today. That was like our their vinyl
- 39:29variants are and merch is already selling.
- 39:30Out completely. Like holy shit, people who stand
- 39:34Poppy, they stand. Hard, you know what I'm saying?
- 39:37Hard like Jamie. Justin.
- 39:40Dogma The controversy continues. Dogma continues their tour while
- 39:44former members continue to speak out.
- 39:46I didn't have a chance to because I was sick, but I was
- 39:48going to do a live stream on this.
- 39:50Should I do a live? Stream on this next week.
- 39:52If this is still a thing, let me know how you feel.
- 39:55Sludge Metal serial is here. Hello, hello Slayer Slayer.
- 40:02Slayer has announced a deluxe box set for the 40th anniversary
- 40:07of their debut album Hella Waits.
- 40:10Technically haunting the chapels in EP, not a full album.
- 40:13I don't know. It looks pretty rad.
- 40:15I don't. Need like hello weights with a
- 40:17liquid inside the vinyl. I don't think that helps the
- 40:20sound or anything. That's just is a cool looking
- 40:22sure, but I don't need this thing.
- 40:25But anyway, hello weights. All right, Wolf Van Halen again.
- 40:30Celebrating his new album, The End gave some interviews.
- 40:32I would still love to talk to him someday and he said that he
- 40:35is finally feeling sort of. Confident and comfortable with
- 40:38himself that this is the most original he has felt as an
- 40:43artist where he wasn't still. Kind of copying his dad Van
- 40:46Halen, which I think is fun, decrops one of the best bands
- 40:51from the Deutsche. Newhart or Hunter genre,
- 40:55basically industrial metal legends.
- 40:57Decrups for a long time has not had their albums on streaming.
- 41:02They are finally got the rights back to put them on streaming.
- 41:05They also dropped a brand new single which is coming out as a
- 41:08physical release. Vilnique Moose from their last
- 41:11album. So most of the classic Decrups
- 41:14albums, including Decrups A tribute to Metallica.
- 41:16Which came out like right after the Black album.
- 41:19Is all on streaming. Finally.
- 41:22And I think they have new vinyl represses coming soon also so
- 41:25good for them make that money. Speaking of artists, with the
- 41:31new albums coming out, a lot of new stuff getting announced for
- 41:332026. Mothaka.
- 41:34Don't know. If you know who Mothaka is, go
- 41:36look her up on socials at Dear Mothaka.
- 41:38Very similar to Poppy, similar to Spirit.
- 41:40Box She kind of had a big album out early last year and then
- 41:44kind of had. I needed to take a step back and
- 41:47step away. And so she is back.
- 41:50Rejuvenated. New record.
- 41:51Deal and now new music and video.
- 41:54Very cool and her new music video.
- 41:55Kind of is fun because she's kind of like.
- 41:57Killing off her old persona and self and also her new one.
- 42:02It's pretty interesting. Boy, this beard bomb is
- 42:06incredible. Smells so good.
- 42:07King Ultra mega. Speaking of Soundgarden is a
- 42:10tribute to Soundgarden and Chris Cornell.
- 42:12This is put together by our friend Mark.
- 42:14Mengi. Of Medal Allegiance and they put
- 42:17out a new single late last week The day I Tried to live,
