Scheduling and just overall burnout has led me to changing direction. There will be no show Saturday night. Go out and do something!!
Is the “Starchild” actually a well-oiled robot repeating the same lines for four decades? Neeley and Chris dig into the archives to prove that Paul Stanley hasn’t had an original thought on stage since 1973. Does the mainstream rock media actually believe this “Public Service Announcement” routine is organic, or are they just too scared to call out the KISS machine for being a total scripted sham? You won’t believe how identical these rants are until you hear the side-by-side evidence—hit play and see the mask slip. This episode originally aired on 9/12/09.

The industry just lost its "Kryptonite," but why does the timing feel so damn wrong? Brad Arnold was only 47 years old—practically a kid in rock years—and the CMS News Exclusive is the only place with the balls to ask if the rock lifestyle finally claimed another victim or if the system failed him. The mainstream media is giving you the Hallmark version of the story, but Alicia and Alex are digging into the wreckage. Do you want the sanitized obituary, or do you want the scorched-earth reality of what happens when a rock soul burns out too soon? Hit play and find out why the rock community is actually pissed off.

Think you know what happens behind the scenes of a major rock star’s press conference? You’re being fed a sanitized, corporate lie by "journalists" who have no business holding a microphone. Neeley and Chris expose a room full of major publication hacks asking questions so mind-numbingly stupid that you’ll wonder how they still have jobs.

Hit play to hear the exact moment the "professional" press officially lost the plot. This is from the 10/31/09 episode of THE CLASSIC METAL SHOW.
