Man, it's a real tragedy. On the evening of January 20, 2025, we lost one of the greats, John Sykes, to cancer at the age of 65. This guy was a legend on the guitar, and his passing has thrown a heavy shroud over the music world. Born on July 29, 1959, Sykes didn't just play the guitar; he commanded it, leaving a legacy that's going to echo in the halls of rock forever.
Starting with Tygers of Pan Tang in the early '80s, Sykes was already showing off his incredible chops. He contributed to albums like "Spellbound" and "Crazy Nights," which were just the beginning of his wild ride. His guitar work was like a punch in the face, loud, aggressive, but so melodic. He left Tygers in '82, but not before making his mark.
Then, he joined Thin Lizzy, and did he bring something special to the table. His work on "Thunder and Lightning" was nothing short of epic, adding a new, heavier vibe to their music. Tracks like "Cold Sweat" are classics, where Sykes wasn't just playing; he was telling stories with his ...

The shocking conversation that needs to happen right now is here. Following the murder of ex-Lost Prophets singer Ian Watkins, convicted of unimaginable crimes against children, the question is simple: Is it morally okay to celebrate the death of a truly evil human being? We dive deep into this controversial topic with a no-holds-barred discussion that uses the Charlie Kirk murder backlash as a yardstick. Where do we draw the line between “murder is murder” and being happy a monster is off the planet? This episode gets dark, raw, and immediately viral-worthy as we tackle this difficult moral dilemma that the mainstream media is too afraid to touch.
Beyond the heavy stuff, Seth airs a personal and unnerving problem: a potential stalker is continually breaking into his home, turning on the gas and flooding the garage. It’s a terrifying escalation that reminds everyone about the very real-world danger of social media anonymity and threatening people’s lives. We also break down the absolute wreckage that...
Chris and Erik start the show with a look back at some of the weird stuff they acquired during their divorces, including a bizarre musket lamp and ridiculous framed art. This leads them into an extended riff on collectible items, telemarketing scams like the Highlander coin collection, and ‘of the month’ clubs for everything from plates to film. The guys then transition to discussing old TV shows like Columbo and Twilight Zone, reflecting on how much the world has changed, especially regarding how crimes are solved and the general ‘70s aesthetic. Finally, they dive deep into the messy truth about the music business, discussing Steven Pearcy‘s generosity on tour, why paying to open for bands like Texas Hippie Coalition and Tesla is often a losing game, and the new, internet-focused approach to building a music career.
