Anthrax
Eddie sits down with Scott Ian, Joey Belladonna, Jon Donais, Frank Bello and Charlie Benante (who shows up fashionably late) to dive deep into Anthrax's latest record Cursum Perficio. The guys open up about the 10-year gap between albums, Joey's seemingly effortless vocal prowess, and whether the album title signals the end of the road.

The conversation touches on everything from vintage Adidas collabs to why they'll never use AI in their artwork.

Myles Kennedy, Ross Valory & Matt Sorum
Myles Kennedy joins for an in-depth conversation about his creative process and upcoming projects. He discusses his refusal to use AI in songwriting, calling it the 'great scavenger hunt' he won't give up. Kennedy reveals he's been writing for 10 weeks straight, filling his three buckets: Alter Bridge, solo work, and Slash's Conspirators. He talks about the challenge of setlists when you have a deep catalog, shares his Earth, Wind & Fire concert experience, and previews Alter Bridge's upcoming tour with Iron Maiden in South America. Following that, Ross Valory, founding member and longtime bassist of Journey, discusses his debut solo album 'All of the Above,' a collection of material written across four to five decades. The eclectic instrumental record features contributions from Miles Schon, Steve Smith, and Prairie Prince. Valory opens up about Journey's transformation from progressive rock to arena rock giants, his relationship with the band today following his departure five years ago, and what it's like hearing Journey songs everywhere he goes. To wrap up the podcast, Matt Sorum discussed the success of his charity concert at the Plaza Theater in Palm Springs, which honored rock legends Geezer Butler and Paul Rodgers. The event, benefiting his Adopt the Arts charity, featured an incredible lineup including Lzzy Hale, Corey Taylor, Glenn Hughes, Charlie Starr, Nuno Bettencourt, Phil X, and Steve Stevens.

Sammy Hagar & Brian Tichy
Sammy Hagar sits down with Eddie to talk about his Best of All Worlds residency, the incredible response from fans on the recent tour, and his decision to take an extended break from touring as he approaches 80. He also has an honest conversation about the ongoing tension with Alex Van Halen, who continues to ignore the massively successful Van Hagar era that produced four number one albums and over 40 million records sold. Sammy questions why Alex won't acknowledge this chapter of his brother Eddie's legacy and extends an open invitation for reconciliation. Following that, Brian Tichy, one of rock's most sought-after drummers, opens up about finally releasing his own music under the name Led By Vultures. The New Jersey native discusses why he gave it a band name instead of calling it a solo record, how he recorded everything himself except for some keyboard work by Derek Sherinian, and what it's like stepping into the frontman role. He reflects on his incredible resume playing with everyone from Ozzy Osbourne to his current gig with Gene Simmons, sharing wild stories about jamming with Eddie Van Halen in his legendary 5150 studio and recording with Steven Tyler.

Chris Jericho, P.J. Farley & Billy Morrison
Chris Jericho and P.J. Farley hang with Eddie for an extended conversation covering Iron Maiden's reluctant Hall of Fame induction and what should happen at the ceremony. They dive into their Kiss tribute band Kuarantine, which celebrates the non-makeup eighties era with upcoming New York shows and a new single release. The guys also discuss Fozzy's new video for 'I Know Evil,' their approach to releasing singles instead of full albums, and Chris drops hints about unreleased Van Halen archive material he's involved with. Plus, stories about Helloween at the Acropolis, Krokus in arenas, and the ridiculousness of eighties Kiss lyrics. After that, Billy Morrison stops by to chat about his fourth solo album Hollow. Billy talks about why he loves collaborating with rock legends like Marilyn Manson, Sully Erna, Nuno Bettencourt, and Duff McKagan, and how working with these artists keeps him sharp as a player. He discusses the new single 'Take Me As I Am,' which is purely his own work—written, played, and sung entirely by him. Billy also gets emotional remembering his close friend Ozzy Osbourne, nearly a year after his passing, and shares what it's like standing on stage every night with guitar virtuoso Steve Stevens in Billy Idol's band.

The conversation also touches on emotional territory as Tony reflects on the Back to the Beginning reunion show, losing Ozzy shortly after, and his ongoing health journey.

The members of Mastodon sit down for an incredibly honest conversation about their new album Marrow Deep. Bill, Troy, and Brann share the painful journey of making this record following the departure and subsequent death of guitarist Brent Hinds, as well as the loss of Brann's mother.

Following that, Eddie opens up about spending an afternoon with the country icon, Dolly Parton, when she made her rock covers album.

Kevin Cronin also chimes in to discuss duetting with Dolly on 'Keep On Loving You.' Closing the podcast, blues rock guitarist Jared James Nichols discusses his latest album Louder Than Fate.
