Nu Pod with Joshua Toomey & Ro Kohli — Music
Nu Pod with Joshua Toomey & Ro Kohli

In the world of music podcasting, there are basically two categories – podcasts by fans, and podcasts by famed musicians that have reached the pinnacle of success. Somewhere in the middle of that is the Talk Toomey podcast. Hosted by Joshua Toomey, who previously was a member of national recording artists Primer 55, Talk Toomey avoids the pitfalls of fandom and the backslapping glad handing that comes from successful bands shamelessly talking to each other. Instead, you get focused, powerful and real looks into “the inner circle” of being a hard rock/heavy metal band, complete with questions most are too afraid to ask because their experience doesn’t meet or exceed the level needed to ask and relate. Talk Toomey has been regularly hailed as a top show since the onset, being highlighted on sites like Blabbermouth, Brave Words, etc. Talk Toomey is released for music fans free every Thursday!

Show notes

Jamie Madrox of Twiztid calls into the podcast this week. Jamie talks to the guys about the elaborate new makeup scheme from the new video for "Kill Somebody" that was created by artist Kay Pike. Mike asks about if they still like the anonymity of wearing the makeup a la KISS in the 70s. Toomey asks about the legacy of Twiztid at the Gathering of the Juggalos and Jamie talks fondly of the 17 years they performed at each of the shows. Jamie answers if they are still considered Juggalos after breaking from Psychopathic Records and he goes on to talk about what he learned from the Insane Clown Posse when it comes to business. Jamie also talks about the upcoming plans for a possible run of shows playing "The Continuous Evilution of Lifes ?'s" in it's entirety.

Ep. 88 Alan Robert (Life of Agony) Feb 14, 2017

Show notes

Alan Robert of Life of Agony joins the show this week. Alan and Josh talk about the new Life of Agony album "A Place Where There's No More Pain". The guys discuss Alan's artistic side including his graphic novels and adult coloring book. Alan speaks openly about Mina Caputo and the changes the vocalist has gone through. They also go over the time Whitfield Crane was in the band and the possibility of Alan taking over the vocals at one point. Alan tells great stories of the shooting the Through and Through video and touring with Carcass, Korn and Ozzy.
This episode also marks the beginning of Mike G joining the podcast as a co-host. Mike lets Josh know about his love of Ugly Kid Joe and this may be the last time Mike is allowed to pick the Talk Toomey cover of the week, which is Ugly kid Joe covering Black Sabbath's N.I.B.
The final thought for the week is a discussion about the Roach Koach Podcast. The hosts have both fallen down the rabbit hole of that great show.
