Episode 46: Eric Braverman Nov 16, 2020

Show notes

Brandon is joined by Eric Braverman who spent years in the inner circle of Metallica as both a friend and employee. In this 2 hour conversation, Eric is both hilarious and brutally honest. He does not hold back when talking about running So What Magazine, creating the documentary Metallimania, and partying with the band. Eric also speaks candidly about his relationships with each band member, why Jason Newsted quit the band, why James Hetfield returned to rehab and so much more. This is one of the most in depth, honest and perhaps controversial conversations you will ever hear about the inner workings of Metallica- the good, the bad and the ugly.
