Episode 39 is here, and for the first time in show history, the whiskey got benched. Why? Because the new podcast koozies arrived, and it seemed only right to break one in with an ice-cold Budweiser. This episode also includes the story of meeting Kid Rock, a deep dive into one of rock's greatest mysteries — "Who the hell is Bob?" — and some elite-level people watching that raised more questions than answers. A...

Today I dive into dollar store chaos, hair metal bands Poison, Quiet Riot, and Vixen, plus the dangers of watching way too much true crime until every public bathroom feels like a crime scene waiting to happen. Rock ’n’ roll, paranoia, and questionable life choices… just another episode.

The Rolling Stones dropped new music, and they're still the greatest rock and roll band. I also hit the road to catch George Thorogood again and he absolutely crushed it, I wish I could say the same for The Marshall Tucker Band, and witnessed enough world-class people-watching to make me question everything I know about humanity.

Shots of whiskey to be had… In this episode, I get into the night with 7 Mary 3, a backstage story that almost went sideways, and the kind of chaos that only happens when rock n’ roll and “one more round” collide. This one’s got stories you won’t hear anywhere else.

Exactly what you’d expect… and probably a little worse. Booze, rock n’ roll, and zero regrets. Hitting the road and catching Brother Cane, Black Label Society, and Rock City Machine Company doing it right—loud, heavy, and unapologetic. Somewhere along the way we wander into a honky tonk, pretend we belong, then somehow end up getting a little high falooten at a rooftop bar like we’ve got class (...

Final back update before I’m either fully fixed… or upgraded to a slightly less broken version of myself. Talking Joe Bonamassa doing his thing, the absolutely ridiculous drink prices at concerts (seriously, did we all start financing beers?), and kicking back with some good old Jack Daniel's like a civilized human. It’s part update, part rant, part “how much did I just pay for that drink?” ...

In this episode I talk about: Post surgery update Dive bar stories that probably should’ve stayed in the dive bar And falling down the YouTube rabbit hole of police body cam footage at 2am like it’s a documentary series nobody asked for Basically it’s a mix of bad decisions, questionable mobility, and the internet’s finest chaos. If you enjoy stories about back pain, dive bars, and people maki...

Pre-surgery back update — my L4 is acting like a diva on a farewell tour. We speed-run music headlines nobody asked for… and yes, I review Rob Zombie’s new album so you don’t have to risk it. Spoiler: I’ve had better sounds come out of a leaf blower. Pain, pettiness, and absolutely no PR filter. Hit play before my spine files another complaint.

Back saga continues — epidural shots, MRI tubes, and the rude awakening that my spine has opinions (none helpful). Between doctor visits, the conversation somehow spirals into friends debating when it’s time for Depends, the elite technique of wiping like a functional adult… and yes, I also explain (again) why I don’t like The Beatles. Dignity? Hanging by a thread.

I straight up couldn’t walk for a day. Like… not “I’m sore” — I’m an old man in a Walgreens aisle levels of broken. BUT… life threw me a solid right after and the new Megadeth album was released, plus I tell you about the first time I met Dave Mustaine, (bucket list moment) oh yea I like flannel enough to qualify as a backup guitarist for a 90s band. So yeah… Episode 30 ...

Episode 29 starts with a tire experience that goes completely sideways… then somehow ends up going right (plot twist). Along the way: - Proof that guys have resting bitch face - Why bad service hits harder than a flat tire - And why an empty glass should trigger an automatic refill Short, petty, and surprisingly optimistic.

My back blew out so bad I had to mentally prepare to stand up from the toilet. Rock bottom. No joke. Somewhere in the chaos, I dropped 21 pounds (turns out pain is an excellent diet plan). After almost 3 months without a podcast, I'm back. I did get out to catch an awesome show with Gary Hoey and another Trans-Siberian Orchestra show in the books. Loud guitars, epic Christmas energy, and a temporary ceasefire with my spine.So f...

I hit Nashville for a kick ass Rock City Machine Company show, promised I wouldn’t buy another guitar (spoiler: I did), caught Nashville Pussy live, and wrapped it all up by going full Rambo on wasps on my patio.

Buckle up for a quality rant, because I’ve got thoughts. Plus, I saw Gary Hoey tear it up live in Sanford, FL, talk about his awesome new album Avalanche, and why his son Ian Hoey is basically a guitar hero in the making—cue the next generation of guitar icons.
