Kiske Contemplates Chameleon - The Story Behind Helloween's Most Controversial Album Jul 31, 2026

Michael Kiske joins Chris Jericho for an in-depth conversation about one of Helloween's most misunderstood albums, 1993's Chameleon. Kiske explains why the band intentionally pushed beyond power metal, how Kai Hansen's departure changed Helloween's chemistry, why Chameleon felt more like three solo albums than a true band record, and how working with producer Tommy Hansen, real horn players, live string sections, and Iron Maiden manager Rod Smallwood helped shape the album's ambitious sound. He also shares the story behind the lawsuit that sidelined Helloween for two years and the injunction that prevented the band from recording or touring. Kiske explains how those lost years affected drummer Ingo Schwichtenberg and the band's momentum, why the backlash to Chameleon caught him by surprise, and why he believes artists have to take creative risks. He discusses the inspiration behind songs like "When The Sinner," "Longing," and "I Believe," why he was blamed for the album's direction, and the events that ultimately led to his departure from Helloween before returning decades later for one of heavy metal's greatest reunions.

Jeff Jarrett Talks The Rise & Fall, and Rise of TNA Jul 08, 2026

Jeff Jarrett and Dark Side Of The Ring co-creator Evan Husney breakdown the brand-new three-part Dark Side Of The Ring story about TNA Wrestling! They discuss why the TNA story grew from two episodes to three, how they got Jeff Jarrett involved, and what he brought to the production in addition to his emotional story. Jeff reveals what surprised him most after watching the finished series, and the first thing his wife Karen said to him after she binged it. Jeff revisits his infamous WWE exit that ended with Vince McsMahon personally handing him a check before he dropped the Intercontinental Championship, the final days of WCW, launching TNA from scratch with his father, Jerry, bringing in Kurt Angle, and eventually being pushed out of the company. He remembers Bob Carter, and his daughter Dixie’s initial involvement, how he convinced Bob to sign Kurt Angle, and later, Hulk Hogan to TNA, and how Vince Russo came into the mix. Jeff explains what made him return to TNA, and why he truly didn’t want to see Dixie Carter fail.

Lee Cronin's Evil Dead Mummy Apr 24, 2026

Lee Cronin dives into Lee Cronin's The Mummy and why it’s nothing like any Mummy movie you’ve seen! He breaks down the dark twist involving a missing child, a sarcophagus, and a family dealing with something far more sinister, how he reinvented the monster with a psychological, possession-driven approach, and why this horror unfolds in broad daylight. He reveals how he built the film around intense practical effects, including a brutal “toenail” sequence, and an evolving, grotesque transformation of the mummy, and explains why real, in-camera scares always beat CGI (tracing that philosophy back to his childhood obsession with making homemade effects, building blood packs, fake skin, and shooting DIY horror on a camcorder). He also talks about the influence of Poltergeist, why Jaws is still the gold standard for suspense and practical effects, and how the success of Evil Dead Rise, along with collaborations with Sam Raimi and James Wan, led him to take this wild, genre-bending swing at The Mummy.

UFO expert researcher Ryan Sprague returns, and there’s A LOT to unpack… from viral “aliens are real” comments by Barack Obama to Donald Trump promising full UFO file declassification to the White House quietly buying aliens.gov. Ryan breaks down the latest congressional UFO hearings, whistleblower claims about secret “legacy programs,” and the push to expose private aerospace companies allegedly working on recovered non-human craft. He dives into the mysterious disappearance of Air Force General Neil McCasland, his connection to Tom DeLonge, and what it could mean for disclosure. There’s talk of UFO crashes in Brazil, recovered alien bodies, and the U.S. allegedly retrieving off-world tech. Ryan also shares details about the Calvine UFO photo (the clearest image ever captured) and the decades-long cover-up behind it. Plus, what’s really happening in Hollywood with Steven Spielberg, upcoming “disclosure” movies, and whether entertainment is being used to prepare the public. And Ryan explains the Bob Lazar S4 story, reverse-engineering alien craft, and a new documentary recreating the inside of a secret facility. There’s also the strange new interstellar object “3I Atlas,” and why some scientists think it could be artificial. And if that’s not crazy enough… could UFOs actually be tied to AI? Is the real “alien invasion” coming from technology we created ourselves?

Pure Evil – The Chilling Tale of International Serial Killer Israel Keys Apr 10, 2026

Jamie from True Crimecast returns to break down one of the most calculated and terrifying killers in modern history – Israel Keyes. He didn’t have a victim type, he didn’t follow patterns, and he didn’t stay in one place. Instead, he buried “kill kits” across the country, flew city to city, and randomly selected victims while carefully studying law enforcement tactics to avoid capture. Jamie explains how Keyes operated for years without detection, the shocking methods he used to plan and execute his crimes, and how one single mistake in Anchorage involving victim Samantha Koenig ultimately led to his arrest. From cross-country murder trips and bank robberies used to fund his crimes, to the disturbing details that surfaced after his capture, this case is as methodical as it is horrifying. Plus, why this case remains so chilling, how many victims investigators believe there could be, and the unanswered questions Keyes took with him to the grave.

Big Baby’s Big Premiere – Live at ScreamFest! Apr 08, 2026

Chris Jericho hits the stage at the TCL Chinese Theatre during Screamfest Horror Film Festival for a live Talk Is Jericho Q&A after the premiere of Big Baby! Writer/director Spider One breaks down how Big Baby went from a joke in Allegoria to a full-blown horror movie, the challenge of making a “killer baby” concept terrifying, and why playing it straight made it even creepier. Krys Fox talks acting, producing, editing the entire film, and building the emotional core before the chaos hits, while actor Brandon Scott details balancing madness, vulnerability, and a psychological breakdown across a 13-day shoot! Chaz Bono reveals what a producer actually does on an indie horror set, how the film became a full-on family affair (including Cher demanding “more blood”), and why his cameo scenes had to be reshot to hit harder. Adam Marcinowski explains becoming “Big Baby,” building a physical performance under a mask, and the subtle details that made the character terrifying. The panel digs into online critics, creative ego, manifesting horror into reality, insane indie production stories (13 days, 11 locations), practical efx fails, reshoots, and the wildest kills in the movie. Plus, favorite scenes, behind-the-scenes chaos, emotional breakdown moments, and the line between what’s real… and what’s all in your head.

The Unlucky Origin & Superstitions Behind Friday The 13th Mar 13, 2026

It’s Friday the 13th… so what better day to dig into the real story behind the most infamous date on the calendar? Chris Jericho welcomes geologist, forensic investigator, and history researcher Scott Wolter to break down the origins of Friday the 13th, the truth about the number 13, and why it became one of the most feared superstitions in the world. Scott explains how the legend connects to the downfall of the Knights Templar in 1307, why the number 13 may actually be a powerful and positive number tied to the Fibonacci sequence and the sacred feminine, and how centuries of myth-making turned it into a symbol of bad luck. He also discusses his controversial research into the Kensington Runestone, hidden history connected to the Templars, the discovery of the Talpiot tomb in Jerusalem, and why Friday the 13th still sparks fear, fascination, and superstition more than 700 years later.

Live From The Lizzie Borden House - America's Most Notorious Axe Murderer Mar 04, 2026

Rob, Dave and Jesse from Hometown Ghost Stories join Chris Jericho LIVE insidethe real Lizzie Borden House in Fall River, Massachusetts to break down the infamous 1892 Lizzie Borden axe murders, one of the most brutal and debated true crime cases in American history. Andrew Borden and Abby Borden were hacked to death with a hatchet inside this house. Lizzie Borden was arrested, put on trial, and acquitted after just 90 minutes of jury deliberation!

They dissect the full timeline of the Lizzie Borden case including the mysterious 90-minute gap between killings, Lizzie’s conflicting alibis, the alleged prussic acid poisoning attempt, the burned dress controversy, the hatchet found in the basement, and the shocking autopsy details performed inside the home. They break down the prosecution’s four key pieces of evidence, the questionable police work, the media frenzy that turned this into one of America’s first national true crime sensations, and why the jury came back with a not guilty verdict so quickly. They also examine alternate suspects including Uncle John Morse, inheritance motives, the staged robbery theory, and whether Lizzie’s sister Emma or maid Bridget Sullivan knew more than they admitted. Plus, because this was filmed inside one of the most haunted houses in America, they explore the paranormal side of the Lizzie Borden House including reported full-body apparitions of Abby Borden, shadow sightings of Andrew Borden, EVPs believed to be Lizzie herself, and the infamous basement corner linked to scratches and dark activity. Is this one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in true crime history? Or did history get it wrong? Watch and decide.

Brad Gilmore returns to break down the wild, unbelievable story behind the Superman movie that never happened (which is also chronicled in the documentary, The Death Of Superman Lives). Tim Burton directing. Nicolas Cage as Superman. Kevin Smith writing the script. And somehow… it all fell apart.

Plus, what Batman & Robin had to do with the plug getting pulled, how close this movie really was to shooting, and why this might be the most fascinating “what if” in Hollywood history.

Steven reveals how the rivalry was stretched out on TV for years, what really happened in the ring at Wembley, and why that match became both the high point and the turning point of the British wrestling boom. He also gets into their connections to WWE – why Big Daddy never crossed over, how Giant Haystacks later surfaced in the States as “Loch Ness,” and what their brief American runs exposed about the clash between British wrestling and the American style. Plus, Steven shares behind-the-scenes stories from Stampede Wrestling, including what Bret Hart really thought of Haystacks during his time in Canada, and how those Stampede matches helped shape the legend, and the mythology of Giant Haystacks outside the UK.

Caroline Cory Explains Superhuman Science & The Buga Sphere Feb 04, 2026

Award-winning filmmaker, futurist, and consciousness researcher Caroline Cory breaks down the mysterious Buga Sphere (the strange metallic object found in Mexico made from 12,000-year-old material). She explains why scientists still can’t debunk it, where it is now, and what it could mean for non-human intelligence. Caroline talks about her documentary A Tear in the Sky and the real-time anomaly her team captured over the California coast, how Tic Tac UAPs forced the Pentagon to admit the existence of UAPs, and why she believes the disclosure is happening now. She explains telekinesis, remote viewing, and why she believes human are capable of abilities we’ve been trained to use (like moving objects with our minds and changing the pH balance in water). Caroline details the CIA’s Stargate Program, and how remote viewing was used for intelligence gathering. Plus, she predicts what’s coming next for humanity, why governments may soon acknowledge non-human intelligence, and how consciousness could be the key to understanding both UFO technology and human potential. And then there’s her own personal UFO story.

The Unsolved Pursuit of D.B. Cooper Jan 16, 2026

John and Jamie from the True Crimecast return for a true crime first…the first non-murder case they’ve ever covered on the show! It’s one of the most famous unsolved mysteries of all time: D.B. Cooper! They break it down from the beginning – the night before Thanksgiving 1971, when a well-dressed man using the name Dan Cooper boarded a Northwest Orient flight, ordered a bourbon, passed a flight attendant a note claiming he had a bomb, demanded $200,000 and four parachutes, and then jumped out of a Boeing 727 into the dark, stormy Pacific Northwest… never to be seen again. They detail exactly what happened on the plane, why Cooper seemed to have inside knowledge of the aircraft, parachutes, altitude, and flight speed, and how he calmly pulled off the only unsolved hijacking in U.S. history. They also dig into the FBI investigation, the missing and mysteriously destroyed evidence, the ransom money found years later along the Columbia River, and why authorities ultimately closed the case. Plus, John and Jamie run through the top suspects, including military paratroopers, pilots, con men, and all the alleged deathbed confessions. They dissect why some believe Cooper never survived, why others are convinced he got away clean, and ultimately where they land on the mystery.

Into The Void – You Must Watch The Randy Rhoads Episode! Jan 02, 2026

Executive producers Evan Husney and Jason Eisener return to talk about their new Hulu docu-series Into The Void: Life, Death & Heavy Metal, and how it almost didn’t happen. They explain why the idea for the show actually predates Dark Side of the Ring, how they pitched Hulu on telling very human stories inside the world of metal, and why they wanted to move away from the tired sex-drugs-and-rock clichés. Evan and Jason break down the intense process of landing Sharon Osbourne for the Randy Rhoads episode just days before Ozzy’s final show, the emotional weight of revisiting Randy’s death, and why hearing from the people who were actually there changes everything. They talk about building trust with Rita Haney for the Dimebag Darrell episode, bringing Rita and Phil Anselmo together for the first time in years, and how that interview sparked healing inside the Pantera family. They also discuss the “Godfather of Death Metal” Chuck Schuldiner episode that set the tone for the series, the challenges of telling Wendy O. Williams’ story on her terms, Anne Boleyn’s battle to survive the Sunset Strip scene, and metal musicians being imprisoned in Iran for their lyrics. Plus, Evan and Jason explain their fight for music rights, what stories shocked them the most, and whether Into The Void could return for a second season.

Captain and Tennille Christmas Watchalong aka The Bosley Clause Dec 26, 2025

PJ Farley and the Pod of Thunder crew (Andy, Nick, and the mysterious Chris L) return for the most unhinged holiday watchalong yet as they hit PLAY on the Captain & Tennille Christmas Special that originally aired on ABC in December of 1976! What follows is a full-on descent into network TV madness featuring Don Knotts chain-smoking his way through an airplane sketch, Tom Bosley (aka Howard Cunningham from Happy Days) siting through his contributions to the show, the Pointer Sisters bringing the little energy that existed, and The Captain (aka Daryl Dragon) looking like the most miserable man ever trapped behind a camera (or a piano for that matter). The guys break down the baffling guest list, the nonstop ballads, the total lack of Christmas spirit, and the awkward 70s variety-show chaos – all in real time. It’s uncomfortable, confusing, unintentionally hilarious, and possibly the least joyful holiday special ever made!

RIP Champagne Gerry Morrow – The Best Wrestler You’ve Never Heard Of Aug 13, 2025

Gerry Morrow was one of the all-time great territory wrestlers, a master heel, a world traveler, and one of the toughest (and funniest) guys to ever step in the ring! He was also a mentor and great friend to Jericho, Lance Storm, AEW’s Don Callis, and Paul Lazenby. Hear about Gerry’s legendary giant-hand slaps (and the poor referee who took six in a row), his love for bumping and selling backdrops, and the time he sang Prince’s “Scandalous” at the top of his lungs during a 3am road trip. Don remembers touring South Africa with Gerry, and how his toughness made dangerous situations feel safe. Lance talks about wrestling in Beirut with Gerry, learning to call matches despite Gerry’s thick accent, and one specific crazy “steel can” spot! Paul shares the story of Gerry boxing his ears in his very first tag match, and how Gerry later pulled him aside with calm, constructive advice instead of ripping him a new one. They also cover Gerry’s days in Japan, his Stampede Wrestling legacy, why Vince McMahon & WWF never called him, and the immense respect Gerry earned from Bret Hart and every peer who ever worked with him. Plus, ribs, road stories, and lots of locker room laughs!

Author Andrew Craneman spent 15+ years compiling over 70 years of music history into The Rock And Roll Almanac: A Day-By-Day Journey Through 70 Years of Legendary Music History, and he’s sharing how and why he did it!

Samoa Joe's Twisted Metal Sweet Tooth Jul 30, 2025

Samoa Joe is Sweet Tooth, literally. The former AEW World Champion talks season 2 of Peacock’s hit action-comedy Twisted Metal, where he physically embodies the iconic ice-cream truck-driving killer clown, while Will Arnett provides the voice. Joe dives into how his pro wrestling background helped shape the body language, timing, and emotional expression needed to bring Sweet Tooth to life behind the mask, and how wrestling legends like Jushin Thunder Liger and Rey Mysterio inspired his physical performance. He talks about his wild audition tape, the adrenaline-fueled stunt work on set, and the unlikely chemistry between him and Arnett. Joe also reflects on his AEW run – from working with Hook, Shibata, and Will Hobbs, to his signature “walk away” moment that broke the internet. He discusses his departure from WWE, what went wrong (and right) during his two runs there, and why his match with Brock Lesnar remains one of his favorites. And of course, there’s talk of TNA, ROH, Kurt Angle, William Regal, and the incredible journey that brought Joe to this moment—wielding machetes in post-apocalyptic ice cream trucks and dropping promos like a boss!

Marc Raimondi, ESPN journalist and author of the explosive new book Say Hello To The Bad Guys and Wrestling Observer’s Garrett Gonzalez break down how the nWo didn’t just change pro wrestling, it changed pop culture, and America itself.

Marc shares behind-the-scenes stories from his interviews with Kevin Nash, Eric Bischoff, and Scott Hall’s family, and explains why the nWo’s rise parallels the evolution of reality TV, hip hop culture, and even modern political theater. They talk about the build-up of Sting, the impact of Hogan’s full creative control, Sean Waltman’s “political” firing, Bret Hart, Goldberg, and why 1997 Starrcade was the beginning of the end of WCW.

Surviving & Thriving After Losing It All In The LA Fires Apr 04, 2025

Jeremy Padawer, Chief Brand Officer at Jazwares (the company behind the AEW action figures), avid toy and card collector, and TIJ alum, returns under very different circumstances. Jeremy and his family lost everything in the devastating LA firestorm this past January. Their Pacific Palisades home, and nearly all of Jeremy’s multimillion-dollar collectibles collection, was destroyed – rare baseball cards, Pokémon cards, action figures, comics, and even a first-edition

Harry Potter book. Not even “fire proof safes” or a commercial bank vault could withstand the flames. Thankfully, Jeremy and his family made it out safely, and insurance covered most of the financial losses. And now Jeremy’s focused on something bigger – helping his Palisades neighbors and community rebuild. He talks about advocating for changes at the government level and fighting to ensure residents can keep their lots and actually rebuild their homes. He even launched a resource website to help – PacificPalisades.com. If you or someone you know has been impacted by the LA fires, this episode, and Jeremy’s mission, might offer some much-needed support and hope.

The Long Haul Trucker Murders Jul 31, 2024

In 2004, the FBI was tipped off to a gruesome pattern of unsolved murders along American highways, and since then, at least 850 homicides have been linked to a new breed of serial killer: long-haul truck drivers!

He talks about the FBI’s special Highway Serial Killings Initiative, what makes these specific types of killings so hard to solve, and what he learned about the life, habits and culture of long-haul truck drivers.

The Legendary Career of Beverly D’Angelo Jul 19, 2024

Beverly D’Angelo may be best known as Ellen Griswold in the Vacation movie franchise, but she actually got her showbiz start as a singer! She was a rock n roller long before she ever graced the silver screen or Broadway stage!

Beverly recounts her days on the road with Rompin’ Ronnie Hawkins & The Hawks, and explains how that led to Coal Miner’s Daughter which in turn led to Vacation. She remembers getting a call from Doug Ellin to make a one-off cameo appearance on HBO’s Entourage, and how that quickly turned into a recurring character.

She explains what it was like to wrestle on uneven, rocky ground with very little oxygen, how she overcame the language barrier with her opponent, and the unbelievable reason why she had to overdub her promo once she got back to the States.

Canada Day Winnipeggers Watchalong – Clifford! Jun 28, 2024

Happy Canada Day, eh? And there’s no better way to celebrate than with a Winnipeggers reunion with a bonus Clifford! watchalong! We’re not talking about the big red dog though! We’re talking about the 10-year-old boy played by fellow Canadian legend, Martin Short! It’s a movie beloved by everyone from David Letterman to Nicholas Cage to… the Winnipeggers (at least one of them, but you’ll have to listen to find out which one). And of course, in true TIJ watchalong and Winnipeggers style, there’s plenty of casting and acting discussion, behind-the-scenes stories from the set, completely useless trivia, and a plethora (good word, eh?) of tangential (another good word, eh?) anecdotes and references like perms, Fargo, bow ties, birthdays, cameo, post-pimple days, milk, mullets, and first-times. And… take a drink for every obscure reference (but please don’t drive, eh?)!

And it’s very possible that Chris Jericho may have crossed Willie’s path in the 90s!

Chris Jericho flies solo to talk about his historic weekend in London! First there was Fozzy’s biggest headlining show ever at the O2 Arena Kentish Town with over 1,000 tickets sold.

Behold The Monster – Inside The Brain of Serial Killer Sam Little Jul 12, 2023

New York Times best-selling author and true crime expert, Jillian Lauren, extensively interviewed the most prolific serial killer in American history, Sam Little, and as a result of her effort, aided law enforcement in clearing 63 of Little’s alleged 90-plus murders. She spent a year visiting Little in prison, and built such a rapport with him that he left her all of his worldly possessions along with his brain when he died in 2020. Jillian recounts what led her to contact Sam Little in the first place, how letter writing turned into in-person visits, and what it took to get him to reveal details about his killings. She also talks about what it was like to put the entire, horrific experience into written form in her book, “Behold The Monster: Confronting a Serial Killer,” and the toll the entire process took on her mental health and her family.

The Strange Death Of Bob Saget Jul 07, 2023

John and Jamie from True Crimecast return to discuss the circumstances surrounding the death of actor/comedian Bob Saget of “Full House” fame. America’s dad was found dead in his hotel room at the Ritz Carlton in Orlando, Florida on January 9, 2022. His death was ruled an accident and attributed to hitting his head in a fall, but due to numerous unanswered questions about his passing, many are not convinced the case is as open and shut as authorities would have the public believe. There was no blood found anywhere in the room, and all of the furniture was padded or soft. There were no eye witnesses and no card key records or video footage indicating someone else entered Bob’s room between the time he checked in and the time his body was discovered. His family also immediately had all of the records around his death permanently sealed. So what exactly happened to Bob Saget? John, Jamie and Jericho dissect the many alternate theories and explanations for his untimely passing.

Life Is But A Dream for Avenged Sevenfold's M. Shadows May 31, 2023

The new Avenged Sevenfold album, “Life Is But A Dream,” arrives this Friday, June 2nd, and there are a couple of very good reasons for the long delay! There was the pandemic and the havoc it wrecked on the recording process, and then there was singer M. Shadows’ vocal cord issues that almost ended his music career! Shads details the problem with his vocal cords, and explains the long process, numerous doctors and one surgery it took for him to regain his singing voice. He also speaks to the creative process behind this album and what inspired A7X to expand their musical horizons and experiment more in their songwriting. He talks about the role that AI (remember their fake-cancelled appearance at Welcome To Rockville?), Web3, and NFTs play in the band, the music, and their vision moving forward. And he weighs in the Helloween reunion!

Bob Rock – Why Jimmy Page Loves St Anger May 24, 2023

Super producer Bob Rock is from Winnipeg, and has also worked with some of the biggest bands in music like Metallica, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi, and Canada’s favorite sons, The Tragically Hip! Bob does a deep dive into the writing and recording process for Metallica’s “Black” album, and the controversial “St Anger.” He shares the one lyric suggestion he gave James Hetfield, the changes he helped the band make to the bass and drum sound, how he got James Hetfield to actually sing in the studio, and the biggest differences between the process of the “Black” album versus “St. Anger.” He also recounts his time with Motely Crue from their first meeting to their recent studio work with new guitarist John 5. He’s got great stories about David Lee Roth and Cher, and even more about The Tragically Hip and late singer, Gord Downie. Bob explains how he and Gord came to collaborate on the new (and truly amazing) “Lustre Parfait” album (which was just released this month), and why it took so long to finish and release.

The BlahBum Bunch – KISS Music From The Elder Uncloaked May 12, 2023

The BlahBum Bunch has been called to order to debate the merits of the most critically-panned album of KISS’ career, “The Music Of The Elder.” BlahBum members Corey Taylor of CMFT, Slipknot & Stone Sour fame, guitarist Zach Throne, and Chris Jericho question the album sequencing, and scratch their heads over songwriting, production, players, and even the cover art. They talk about Ace Frehley’s minimal contribution and imminent departure, the arrival of Eric Carr on drums, and the return of Bob Ezrin to the producer seat. They’ve got some fantastic trivia about The Elder movie that never happened, the music videos that never released, and Paul Stanley’s text response when asked about “Music from The Elder.” And like almost every other member of the KISSArmy, they have plenty of theories and thoughts about the impact this particular album had on the direction of KISS’ career and future at the time.

He explains how Jim Kettner & ECWA gave them their first big break and their tag team name, The Briscoe Brothers. He shares the brothers WWE tryout experience, how they landed at ROH, and why they always loved feuding with Kevin Steen (aka Kevin Owens) and El Generico (aka Sami Zayn).

Nick Groff... Death Walker May 03, 2023

Paranormal investigator Nick Groff has been interested in aliens, UFOs, ghosts and hauntings since childhood! He’s worked on Ghost Adventures, and Paranormal Lockdown, and now has his own show, Death Walker. He explains how his desire to do solo investigations in a list of very specific places led to the creation of this show. He talks about the spots and cities he investigated, the experiences he, his wife (who’s a medium) and his cousin (who also serves as his cameraman) caught on film, and the lengths he went to authenticate footage. Nick details his documentation from The Western Block in Lockport, New York, the Iron Island Museum in Buffalo, The Anderson Hotel, and the Sally House, and describes the weird scratches he’s received on his body, and spirits who’ve shown themselves to him. He also reveals what it’s like living in a haunted house, and shares his own real-life experience witnessing a departing soul at the scene of a terrible car accident.

He recounts the early days of Ugly Kid Joe from their formation in Santa Barbara to releasing their monster EP, “Ugly As They Wanna Be,” to their near instant success thanks to MTV to the making of their latest studio album, “Rad Wings Of Destiny.” Whit explains how they escaped the fate of other 80s metal bands when grunge arrived, why the band parted ways in 1997, and what finally brought them back together in 2010.

Winnipeg Pro Wrestling – Fight At The Museum Apr 05, 2023

Devin Bray is the promoter and founder of Winnipeg Pro Wrestling. Guess where? In Winnipeg, of course! He even graduated from the same high school as Jericho (just a few years later). He explains what inspired him to start WPW, how he managed to grow the company and his fan base, and why dropping a belt is one of the hardest things for a booker to figure out. He talks about some of the WPW regulars like PCO, AJ Sanchez, Red Hot Summer, and the current Champions Bobby Schink and Jody Threat! He shares the gimmick that AEW’s Top Flight (aka Daunte and Darius Martin) used when they wrestled at WPW, and what he thinks about Dungeon Wrestling, the promotion recently launched by Bret Hart’s sons, Blade and Dallas, and Mo Jabari. Plus, he shares details about the card for WPW’s already sold out, Fight At The Museum, happening April 8th at Alloway Hall at the Manitoba Museum.

RJ City Gave Me Peeps & Celery Mar 31, 2023

Who’s interviewing who in this hilariously awkward interview/conversation between Jericho and RJ City. They trade questions, volleys, and stories about their various reality TV experiences, scripted TV series, and movies. CJ questions RJ being type cast as a wrestler in most projects he films, and RJ grills Jericho in turn on his inability to win reality singing competitions despite being a professional singer. They talk David Arquette, Clint Bobski, MJF, WWE, AEW, catchphrases (including the short-lived GFA), and Lindsay Lohan. RJ also explains what inspired his YouTube show, “Hey! (EW),” and how he approaches prep and guests for each episode. And grab a dictionary for this one because there are some seriously impressive, high-flying words from both gentlemen!

Watch new episodes of Hey! (EW) every Sunday at the crack of dawn on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@AEW

Serial Killer Larry Hall – Blackbirds, Burnsides & Bloodshed Mar 22, 2023

Paul Walter Hauser won the Golden Globe for his portrayal of alleged serial killer Larry Hall in the AppleTV series, “Black Bird.” Larry is suspected of killing 50 girls in the Mid-West between 1981-1994, yet was never convicted of murder! John and Jamie from True Crimecast return to break down the real-life case of Larry Hall, and offer more details about how Jimmy Keene was recruited by the FBI to help keep the alleged serial killer behind bars. They also discuss the numerous victims, explain why Larry’s confessions never amounted to a murder conviction, and what specifics Larry shared with Jimmy about Jessica Roach and Tricia Reitler’s murders that resulted in Larry’s continued imprisonment and Jimmy’s freedom.

It’s true crime, mystery, and the paranormal all rolled up into one historic location – Alcatraz! Alcatraz Island is a small island a little over one mile off the coast of San Francisco.

The Evilution of 80s Heavy Metal Mar 10, 2023

Rudy Sarzo (of Quiet Riot, Ozzy Osbourne, Whitesnake, & Dio fame), Raven’s John and Mark Gallagher, and bassist PJ Farley (of Trixter & Fozzy fame) bring the sex, drugs and rock & roll to the Evolution of 80s Heavy Metal! The stories from the studio and the stage are almost unbelievable and include the immensely talented Randy Rhoads, a very young Metallica, the mythical KISS, and the behemoth 1983 US Festival! There are tales about the origin of Quiet Riot and the writing of the “Metal Health” album, what caused Raven to be dropped from the massive Judas Priest Turbo Tour, the truth about Randy Rhoads planning to quit Ozzy’s band, and why three "heys" from Paul Stanley was more than enough acknowledgement for PJ Harvey and Trixter. The guys talk gold records, bad record deals, the MTV influence, Winnebago tours, and the grunge cloud that all but killed heavy metal as soon as it burst onto the scene.

Plus, he talks about MLW’s luck in signing generational talent like Hammerstone and Jacob Fatu, and why he’s so excited for everyone to see the up and coming Microman.

The Secret Society of Bohemian Grove Mar 03, 2023

There’s a secret society called the Bohemian Club that holds a two-week exclusive event every year at Bohemian Grove in the Redwoods just north of San Francisco. Tim Chizmar (of The Game fame) returns to discuss this invitation-only, elite club that offers membership exclusively to rich and powerful men (most of whom are white). Famous actors, musicians, artists, business men and politicians are among the members who dress like druids and worship a 40-foot giant Owl god voiced by Walter Cronkite. Alex Jones infiltrated Bohemian Grove in 2000 and filmed one of their rituals, the Creation of Care. Journalist Phillip Weiss from Spy Magazine also snuck into Bohemian Grove in 1989, and wrote an in-depth piece on their activities and location. And Tim Chizmar has three first-hand accounts about Bohemian Grove from former employees. But the real question to ask is, is Bohemian Grove just a summer camp for powerful, rich men or is there something else more sinister and nefarious going on among the trees and in the elaborate tunnels rumored to run beneath the forest?

Who Pulls The Strings – The Bizarre Story Of THE GAME Oct 12, 2022

Something has been happening in the seedy underbelly of Hollywood for years. Tim Chizmar calls it “The Game,” and if you know, you know. And if you don’t, you’re about to find out. Is it a conspiracy? A hoax? Is it real? It sounds A LOT like the 1997 Michael Douglas movie, “The Game” and even reads a little like a less-violent “Squid Games.” Tim Chizmar was a player, recruited by a fellow Hollywood professional, and he made some serious cash staging disappearances, kidnappings, and S&M scenes. Tim has no idea who runs The Game or what happened to all of the content he created as a player, but he details his 2-year involvement from the moment he joined to his unceremonious exit. He theorizes on who might be behind The Game, why he believes he was chosen, whether he may find himself pulled back in at some point, and what he fears may happen to him for sharing his incredible tale.

Oct 2, 1990 – The Origin of Jericho Oct 07, 2022

October 2, 1990 is a special day in pro wrestling history! It’s the day that Chris Jericho had his first-ever wrestling match! The big event took place at the Ponoka Moose Hall and it was Chris Jericho versus Lance T. (the T stands for Thunder) Storm! They were third on the card in what ended up being a 15-minute time limit draw. Chris runs down the days leading up to the big booking, the drive to the Moose Hall with Bret Como and Mike Lozanski, the scene at the venue when they arrived, and the locker room celebration and conversation post-match. He details the origin of his entrance music that day (Poison’s “Unskinny Bop”), the gimmick he refused to do, the heat caused by his black wrestling boots, and where he got those super cool black & yellow tights (inspired by Stryper)!

When Doves Cry - The Death of Prince Sep 28, 2022

Karl Stern is a longtime contributor to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, host of the “When It Was Cool” podcast, and a veteran police officer! Karl joins to talk about the death of one of music’s biggest stars, Prince. Prince was found dead in an elevator at his Paisley Park estate on April 21, 2016 from what was later ruled and “accidental” overdose of fentanyl. Karl explains why his death was ruled “accidental,” and talks about the significance of Prince being among the first well-known public figures to die from a fentanyl overdose. He talks about the chronic pain and injuries that likely led Prince to turn to painkillers in the first place, the various doctors treating the icon for both pain and possible addiction, the role that his religion may have played in his death, and the intervention that was due to take place on the very day that Prince died. Karl also sheds some light on the rise of the fentanyl drug epidemic, the dangers of fentanyl, and how it became the drug of choice for both the Mexican drug cartels and recreational users.

It’s the story of the infamous Great White concert fire at the Station nightclub in West Warwick, Rhode Island on the night of February 20th, 2003.

You’ll also hear EVH stories and memories from Charlie Benante, Mike Portnoy, Stryper’s Michael Sweet, AEW’s Frankie Kazarian, and Dave LaGreca from Busted Open Radio. And thanks to Steve Brown and Billy Grey for sharing some original EVH-inspired licks and music especially for this episode. RIP Eddie Van Halen. Rock & Roll is forever in your debt.

30 Years of After The Rain with Gunnar & Matthew Nelson Oct 09, 2020

Because Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora told them they should!

They remember headlining tours because no bands wanted to take them on the road, what one guest VJ spot on MTV did for their career, being sidelined at Geffen Records in favor of grunge, what happened the night they met Cindy Crawford, and how COVID forced them to postpone their 30th Anniversary celebration plans.
