Rex and Duff are back and we've got a mountain of new metal to discuss! We kick off the show by catching up on some of the biggest and most exciting recent and upcoming releases, including new heat from Revocation (New Gods, New Masters), the gothic grandeur of Paradise Lost (Ascension), the extreme artistry of Igorrr (Amen), the doom-laden depth of Novembers Doom (Major Arcana), and an update on the latest from the mighty Megadeth.
Then, we dive back into the grindhouse for our horror film segment, putting the spotlight squarely on Rob Zombie's filmography—from the cult chaos of the Firefly Family trilogy (House of 1000 Corpses, The Devil's Rejects, 3 From Hell) to his Halloween remakes. We're talking horror influences, the controversial lack of metal on his soundtracks, and the undeniable connection between his unique vision and the heavy metal aesthetic. Finally, we wrap up with another round of "King of the Mountain" Tough Choices, forcing us into some agonizing metal dilemmas!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
