We’re back and we’re going filthy, kids. This week, we unpack the story of a 22-year-old who got “metal up her ass” the hard way. If you think that’s bad, wait until you see the guy calling his Pomeranian his “daughter” on the nightly news while wearing a COVID mask in a smoke-filled fire zone. It’s the most faggoty thing we’ve ever seen.
We also tackle:
David Lee Roth living in an alternate universe where “Alligator Pants” are cool.
Ozzy admitting he can’t walk and will only do “bits and pieces” for his final show.
Tesla’s Brian Wheat starting a new band with Tommy Skeo despite years of “hating” him.

Yo family! Chris is in the house showing how YouTube TV is officially the "New King," and surprise—they’re acting just like the old bosses. They’re dropping 10+ new tiers to "save you money," but Chris calls bullshit. It’s all about analytics and squeezing every last cent out of your pocket.

Bro, the Megadeth camp is a MESS. Chris and Bob Nalbandian go toe-to-toe on whether Dave Mustaine caved to cancel culture or if David Ellefson finally just pushed the envelope too far with his side projects and “negligence.”
But the real “spit-your-beer-out” moment is Eddie Trunk. He spent his whole show “just saying” why he’s more qualified for the Radio Hall of Fame than Alice Cooper. You can’t make this shit up.
THIS EPISODE INCLUDES:
– Tabloid metal news vs. Reality.
