Episode 191
He was the swagger in the storm, the howl in the night, the electric pulse running through the veins of rock ‘n’ roll. A tattooed troubadour with a crooked grin and a voice that sounded like it had been soaked in whiskey and set on fire. Bon Scott didn’t just sing—he lived the lyrics. Hard, fast, and always one heartbeat away from the edge.
But behind the denim, the strut, and the devilish wink was a man far more complex than the screaming frontman of AC/DC. This is the story of a Scottish-born kid who landed in Australia and set the world alight. Of heartbreak, of brotherhood, of the road, and of a voice that became immortal just as its owner slipped away.
In this short journey through his life, we won't just hear the music. We’ll walk the stages, ride the vans, feel the sting of cold nights and roaring crowds. And maybe, just maybe, we’ll understand how one man burned so brightly, even if only for a short while.

Model Wars
On the surface, the modeling industry in the 80s was about parties and pretty clothes, but underneath the flash, there were drugs, sex, and violence. And Paul Fisher, a former straight-A student from the San Fernando Valley, rose to prominence amidst the turmoil. After a chance encounter with an alleged mobster, Paul suddenly found himself with a million dollars in funding and the chance to start a modeling agency in New York City. The city was then embroiled in a “model war” between industry titans Eileen Ford and John Casablancas, and Paul tried to make his mark. But even as Paul thrived in the party-heavy culture of the time, burning cash like a furnace, he came face to face with the darkest forces in the industry. As his shady backers put the screws to him, Paul faced down deadly consequences, trying to make a star while saving his soul.
